Speaker 1 (00:00):
Henny The Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The Jesse
Kelly Show on Hey Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving. We'll
touch a little bit more on this Mark Kelly prediction
I made last night. We'll talk about that here briefly.
We are going to get to all kinds of more
what you're thankful for stuff this hour. BKA's joining us
(00:23):
a half hour from now, and there's gonna be some
serious stuff. But I gotta be honest. I'm in a
Thanksgiving mood. I'm in a thankful mood. I'm gonna talk
to you about what you're thankful for. I'm gonna talk
about me and what I'm thankful for, and I'm gonna
ask b Kay what he's thankful for. It's a good
time for that. Even though it's a bit of a
heavy day with that terrible shooting in DC. We are
(00:44):
going to keep on marching all right now. Yesterday I
told you I'm suspicious of this Senator Mark Kelly stuff.
First he puts out that seditious video, Hey, don't obey
any legal orders. It was really weird. And then Trump
(01:05):
of course starts saying things like sedition and treason, which
is not wrong, and then Mark Kelly starts to play
the victim. I've been in combat. I've been almost shut
down when she wasn't, but I've been almost shut down.
I'm a hero essentially doing that whole thing, and the
media is doing what they do. We discussed already last
(01:26):
night the communist tactic that they've always used. They're always
in filtrating, always trying to destroy, and inevitably they will
push too far sometimes and when they do, when they
push too far and get caught and they look bad,
always the victim immediately the second they look bad, Why
why are you threatening me? You're being violent? Hey, fascist,
(01:46):
don't touch me. CNN of course will go along.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
With it forre's when the President of the United States
do have real and alarming consequences. Just listen to the
threats that Congressman Jason Crowe, who's part of the video,
says that that'd be.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
The congressman that Chris and Corey named Jim Crow when
we first played it. Just want to remind everybody.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
He received he deserves to die.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
I hope you all get murdered, I hope you all
get slashed. You disgraced America, and I'll pray you go
to David, not before your family does.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
I'll pray they die.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Pay for death.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Hurry up and die, you worthless trader.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
It's pretty incredible to think about that, Think about people
that would call and say that. Every Democrat in that
video has received threats, according to the New York Times,
but death threats as a result of his words is
not something that has recently seemed to bother the President
of the United States.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Donald Trump got shot in the head and they never
played any of those Donald Trump got shot in the
head and they never played it. Why Because they're there
to aid the revolution period. Loss of life, threats to
these things don't cross these people's minds. They're there for
the revolution anyway, Mark Kelly, he's very afraid, you see,
(03:09):
very afraid. The president made a threat on his life,
and he's very very afraid. He is so afraid and
so not considering running for president that he went on
Jimmy kimmof MYO and every old Now remember last night,
just pause, sorry, remember last night when I told you
(03:29):
white guy. Democrats need the white men back.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
A guy.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
They need men back somebody who's worn the uniform NASA,
they need patriots back. These are groups that have left
the Democrat Party and from a swing state. From a
swing state, remember what I said. You could be looking
at a guy running for president. Oh, here he is,
(03:56):
Jimmy kimmelf Mio. Tell me this doesn't sound like a
I consider.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
It my oath and every oath.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Every member of the military took his loyalty to the Constitution,
not to a person. And he's trying to He's trying
to get some fear out there. And fear can be contagious.
But what also can be contagious is courage and patriotism.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Chris, you were you just said Jewish producer Chris just
said he's going to be so mad. If I'm right,
you want me to get more specific on my prediction,
here's one for you. And if I'm right about this,
I'm just warning. Look, I'm not just warning Chris. I'm
warning you do not tune into the radio and listen
to the show. If this prediction turns out to be right,
(04:45):
it is. What's the date? November twenty sixth. November twenty sixth,
Mark Kelly, Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona is going to
run for president. He's going to run for president and
his as a result of that, his name ID, his
brand is going to increase dramatically. Mark Kelly will not
(05:10):
ultimately win the nomination, but Mark Kelly will be the
VP choice of whoever the Democrat nominee is in the
year twenty twenty eight. What Chris what? I could be vague?
Chris is trying to pin me down on the nominee. No, no, no, no, no, sir,
I just made the most specific prediction in the world,
(05:32):
and you're acting like I'm miss Cleo. I just put
that out there three years ahead a time. No no,
no no. If I'm right about that, I have earned
the right to be super obnoxious, and I promise I
will be what. No, no, you write that down? Chris
is claiming he won't. He won't bring it back up.
Write it down. Someone recorded, so Chris can't hide it
(05:53):
like he always tries to do. A back to what
you're thankful for, Jesse, It's hard to find things to
be thankful for with the way things have been going
over the last couple of years. I'm so poor, I
can't see the poverty line, and I don't take any
kind of government handouts or charity. In spite of that,
I'm lucky I was born in America because I'm more
(06:14):
fortunate here than I would be anywhere else in the world.
And that is something to thank God for, he said.
I can use his name. His name is matt Amen,
Sir Amen, way to see the way, to see the
good in it, Jesse. And then there are people like this.
I'm most thankful this year that my farts are invisible.
(06:37):
What's wrong with you? We have? And I've heard this before,
We've heard this from various sponsors before, and I'm not
totally sure how I feel about this, but we have
the funniest, most barbaric audience of any audience in radio.
(07:00):
Are just savages. And I'm not totally sure why or
where that came from. But what's wrong with you? Jesse?
My name's Cassandra. Don't look at me, Chris like it's
my fault. It's not my fault. After twenty eight years
of marriage, my husband asked for divorce. My son had
just left for college. I was excited for our empty
(07:20):
nest years, but my husband had lost his way. So
on and so forth, she goes on. Anyway, I'm thankful
we defied all odds, came back and just celebrated our
thirtieth wedding anniversary and both looking forward to a better
than ever happily ever after. I'm grateful that we really
(07:41):
and truly saved our marriage. Thank you for hearing my story.
How about that marriage was on the brink, fought for it.
Claude earned her way back. Doesn't look like she's gonna
turn out like this headline. Seventy five percent of young
(08:02):
liberal women are childless, compared to a far lower lower
number of conservatives. Now, this is not about being childless.
Many women are childless. Maybe you're childless, it's not you
don't have to have children to be happy. It's not it.
But as much as the left angers me, the communists
anger me. One of the things that anger me the
(08:25):
most about them is they poison the minds of these
young women to such an extent that they voluntarily remove
themselves from any interest in starting a family. It's not
everyone's destiny to have a family. It's not. It's not
everyone's destiny to get married or have children. I would
(08:48):
never say such a thing, but how in the world
can you poison the minds of so many young women
and this kind of discourse, Remember that we played it
for were you last night, that woman running for Congress
in the Nashville area. Remember when she said this.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
My therapist always asks me to transcribe my dreams when
they happen, And the recurring dream I've had is.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Standing up in a cafeteria full of women, I don't
know why I was there or whatever, and saying I
don't want children, I want power, and just screaming at
the top of my lungs. I'm not mad because of
the lack of babies we're having. That's just that's bad.
I'm not mad about that. I'm mad because so many
(09:36):
of these young women are succumbing to the cult of
communism and they're voluntarily removing themselves from the family pool.
And it's not going to bring one ounce of the
fulfillment they think it is. And this is something, as
we've discussed, it does not affect people on the right.
People on the right are having babies, getting married at
(09:57):
the same level they were years and years ago. This
is not affect our side. That's terrible, man, that's freaking terrible.
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wonderful Thanksgiving
Eve a Wednesday. Remember you can email us Jesse at
Jesse kellyshow dot com. BK's gonna join us ten minutes
(10:18):
from now, and I'm sure be obnoxious. I bet money.
I bet you money right now. You just go through
working out or something, and you know it. You know
it's true. You know it's true. We're gonna have to
endure it. So we'll endure it together. You want to
be in good news before we go back to your
thankful emails. National parks are gonna start charging non citizens
(10:39):
higher fees to enter. It's too bad for you, guys.
You know what I have to say.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
No, freedom is not free.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Hey, Jesse, I'm grateful for a just and merciful gun.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
The name of a just merciful gun.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
I'm grateful people be texting, and I'm grateful for the
Jesse Kelly Show. For I maybe on the road to insanity,
but you've helped me slow the pace. Happy I can
help El Sombrero. Thinking about the meddling our Cia has
done and Latin and South America especially working to overthrow
elected governments. Could illegal immigration, at least from Central America
(11:17):
be revenge for what we did to them? What say you?
All right? His name is James, So I'll just say
this and I've been telling you that the next History
episode I'm working on it. I'm not making a promise
to you, but I hope it will come next week.
(11:41):
I hope to have enough time over the next couple
of days to finish what I've been doing, finish my
research on the Rhodesian Bush War. I I I'm not
saying I could do the show now, but I'm almost
to the place where I could do a show. I'm
just trying to make sure it's good for you when
I do it. All right, there is no question this
(12:02):
one we're going to do is going to be at
least two parts, maybe three. It's going to be long.
I'm warning you now. But as I'm researching all of
it and going through what was happening in the world,
remember this. Remember this because this is going to be
a part of the show. It's going to be a
part of the Rhodesian Bush War Show, and so many others.
After World War Two, when we had the Soviet Union
(12:24):
that had that much power and influence, they were on
the march throughout the globe to try to turn the
entire world communist. That was not American paranoia or something
like that. All that red scare stuff was totally legitimate.
The Soviet Union China, they were not interested in communism
(12:49):
only being for them. They aggressively, aggressively pushed every part
of the world, including Africa. Hint hint. They aggressive pushed
every part of the world as hard as they could
toward communism, and they would facilitate that as much as
(13:09):
they possibly could, providing men and materials and training. But
if they could get you to buy into communism, they
pushed that way. And because they're not fools, they realized
it would be pretty advantageous to have a shop set
up in the backyard of their greatest enemy. That would
(13:32):
be US, the United States of America, the shining city
on a hill that served as an example to what
communism wasn't They always wanted to bring down America because
of what we showed. We showed that communism sucked compared
to freedom, and they could they could live with that.
(13:52):
They always wanted to set up shop here. Now that
is this is not me defending the CIA and everything
the CIA has ever done, so don't won't take it
in that way. I'm not. I'm talking about on a
macro political level. We couldn't stand by and allow the
Kamis to turn our southern neighbors into Communist countries. There's
(14:17):
no way we could have or should have stood by
and allowed them to become Soviet proxy states. There's no
way you could possibly allow that. The second you allow that,
and you're gonna learn more of this when we get
to the Rhodesian Bush War, the second you allow that,
you've baked into the cake that they're gonna be pouring
(14:38):
across the border in hostile ways, that we are finished.
We had to We had to counter that with our
own stuff. Was it all done right?
Speaker 4 (14:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Was it all on the up and up? Of course not.
It's the freaking CIA. I'm not saying that, but something
had to be done to counter it. They were aggressively
moving across the globe. No, I realize in an effort
to counter it, we screwed up a million things. Look
at Vietnam. That was all a result of trying to
(15:13):
counter the Communists taking over the entire country. That's what
that was. I'm not saying we didn't do it wrong
a lot, just saying something had to be done. All right, right, Jesse,
I'm thankful that I'm not Maxine Waters guy. What is
wrong with you this, I'm moving on to the next one. Jesse.
(15:36):
I'm thankful for your podcast, seriously, it makes my day.
Can you recommend a way to deal with my whiny
brady terrorist nieces? These terrorists wine until they get what
they want. What say you, Well, if there's one thing
I learned in life, and obviously you've heard many others
(15:59):
say something so similar, you can only control what you
can control, and there's little use stressing about the things
you can't control. Don't spend five seconds of your life
trying to raise someone else's kids. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a wonderful Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving
(16:23):
and joining me now host of the World News with
BK podcast, former Air Force PJA. Of course you know
him well, BK BK. First of all, you couldn't have
picked one festive holiday type song or is this?
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Then? You know what?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
It wouldn't surprise me if this is what you listen
to while you house your Thanksgiving me up? What's wrong
with you?
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Jesse?
Speaker 4 (16:46):
The grind doesn't stop. As a matter of fact, I'm
glad you had me on today, Jesse, because I was
at none other than the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. Jim
here in beautiful San Diego, California, where is absolutely at
the gout and I'm sitting are throwing kettles, abrown kettlebells
around Jesse like it's my job.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
The ab veins were.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Popping through my shirt, the twenty two inch python. Jesse
just gleaming and sweat incredibly aesthetically and pleasing. And I'm saying,
you guys better be out there grinding today before you
stuff your fat faces tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Let's go. No screwing around. B kay.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
I'll have you know before you start scolding me, I
not only lifted today, I have another workout tomorrow morning
before Thanksgiving, so I'm not gonna have any of this. BK.
Gail at the bat. You can't get in the gym.
I'm in the gym. Okay, I'm in the gym.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
My man, my man, b kay.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
You know what. I'm glad you brought this up. As
a matter of fact, I didn't know that's where you
were lifting today. I of course, did not appreciate the
magic of the Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego while
I was a guest Todare because it was the most
pleasant experience in the world. But I did have the
chance to go back, and there is something special there
(18:01):
and I don't understand exactly why is that? Because of
my experience, what is it? I'm serious, it's powerful. Why
is it powerful?
Speaker 4 (18:09):
It is Jesse, you know, and even I mean you,
of all people, if you've gone through there is a
recruit then you define you'll have a lifelong connection to
the place either way. But there is Jesse because every
week there, you know, I'm there. I'm there three four
or five days a week because it's the closest free
gym to my house. And you know, they have the
family day on Thursday followed by a graduation on Friday,
and those two days Jesse, you really look around and
(18:31):
you see all these families, you know, as they all
got the matching T shirts on. My son is a marine,
my daughter is a marine. And you hear them speaking
like eight different languages, you know, And you see all
these young men right just just clean cut standing at
parade rest as I walk by in my gym shorts.
You know, they've just been so conditioned. But you really see,
(18:53):
to me, this is America right there. That is America.
That's the melting pot where everybody comes down, and these
guys know, no matter what they came from, what their
background was, Jesse, they all signed the dotted line, stood
on those yellow foot prints at MCRD, went through crap
for three months with the drill instructors, and now they're
going to be the next generation moving forward. And I
(19:13):
couldn't be happier with what I see all the time.
I see motivation, I see bearing, I see young dudes
ready to get after it. I love it.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I love being around there.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I love it too, And I love it because I
get all kinds of emails. And I know you've seen
these comments before of people say the next generation sucks,
the next generation's worthless, the next generation's lazy. And of
course every generation has its turds. I would never say otherwise,
including the next generation. But every generation also has its
(19:44):
studs who make the world move, and the next generation,
this one's coming, is no different. There's some beasts out there.
I see them all over that totally.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Absolutely, and you know that's our Isn't that the case
with every generation? Jesse is the generation previous to us
with soft right all the time, of course, and it's
only because we have social media now that we see
all the terrible things happening in the world, but you
have to remember, yeah, there are some go getters out there.
I see it constantly, and it's you know, it's mixed
feeling free, right. I feel a sense of pride, but
(20:13):
it's almost like, you know, Jesse, you and I we've
passed that stage in our lives, even though you know, frankly,
I think I could still operate at the highest level.
But I think that you know, seeing these guys and
knowing that their journey is just starting, right, this is
the beginning of something special.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
For them, and that really that makes me feel good.
It makes me feel good about our country.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I just want to be clear that I never once
in my life operated at the highest level, and even
the average grunt marine level I used to operate at
is well beyond my grasp today at forty four years old.
All right, p K, what's I don't even want to ask.
It's probably protein shakes? What's on the BK? Thanksgiving Feast?
(20:53):
What are we eating? What are we not eating?
Speaker 4 (20:55):
Give it to me, Okay, I am going to a
very fancy kind of sit down place, a buffet style,
at a very posh location here in San Diego for
the first time, which.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
I'm very excited about.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Sick of the turkey, I'm sick of the turkey slander, Jesse.
I'm tired as the turkey slander. I know you're one
of those people, and I'm not gonna stand for it.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
You have a turkey at home that you didn't like.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Guess what that's called operator error. You didn't prepare your
turkey properly. You screwed it up. Take some accountability, Jesse.
The deep fried turkey is brainless. Smoking a turkey is
also very good.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I have to have it.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
I'm not gonna go without turkey on Thanksgiving. That's like
a hate crime. And I know you're gonna say prime
rib is way better, t bone steaks are way better.
All of that could be the case. I'm going turkey,
mashed potatoes and green bean cast role for my white
trash roots, and yeah, I'm gonna do it. And it
has to be made with the Campbell's, you know, the
real garbage. As the CEO just came out and said
(21:55):
the Campbell's creator, Barker Room, I'm.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Gonna eat all that.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
I don't like cranberry sauce. I don't want fruit with
my meat. I don't care what the combination is. No
fruit with the meat. Get the cranberry out of here, garbage,
b Kay.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Just just asking. All I'm asking for is honesty. Speaking
with BK, host of the World News with PK podcast,
how many times a year do you order turkey in
a restaurant? Buka?
Speaker 4 (22:24):
That would be next to zero, And I knew that
question was coming. But I will say there's a place
down the street for me that's known for their very
good sandwiches, and this time of year they bust out
their monthly special, which is their turkey sandwich with the
stuffing and the gravy and all that.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
It's delicious. All have that as well if you count that.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
But no, do I go and get a plate of
turkey slice turkey?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
No, I don't.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
But that's part of the it's part of the ritual
jesse as you, I think you'd probably agree.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
I think Thanksgiving is.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
By far not only the queen essential American holidays considering
it's roots right, but it's also by far the best.
It's like Christmas, except there's no pressure of gifts. You know,
you still family, you still it's all about food. You
sell family food football, but no gifts. It's my favorite
holiday by far.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
It's on my short list. There's no question. I absolutely
love it. Okay, I should probably ask you one or
two serious things before we check out it here and
go stuff our faces. Venezuela, b ka. What we have
this big navel build up down there. Of course there's
going to be some marines with them. There's all kinds
of saber rattling from both sides, although the Venezuelan saber
(23:34):
is admittedly dull and much shorter. What what is happening?
What have you heard? What do we think right now?
Speaker 4 (23:41):
You know, I don't know, Jesse, I don't know what
the endgame is here. Let's all remember and stipulate from
the beginning. You know, the big mantra in the twenty
twenty four election.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Was no new wars. Right Well, here we are, so
what's going on?
Speaker 4 (23:53):
Well, all I know right now is for some reason,
we have put our largest military press in the Caribbean
since the nineteen eighty nine invasion of Panama. So if
you listen to the Trump administration, they'll tell you this
is because Venezuela's leader, Nicholas Maduro, is the running the
(24:15):
cartel Operation down drug trafficking. As a matter of fact, they
I don't know if you know this, they placed a
fifty million dollars bounty on Nicholas Maduro's head if any
of you former contractor types want to go on another
misguided adventure down into Venezuela.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
But simple another story.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
So we and we also decided to designate the so
called Cartel of the Suns, which is a drug trafficking organization,
as a.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Foreign terror organization.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
So with that designation comes all kinds of national security
assets and everything else.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
So but the thing is, experts say this is like,
this doesn't really exist.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
Venezuela is not really the head of the traffiing in
South America. So I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
To me, maybe the same rattling.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Maybe it's just pressure to get the people to rise
up against them. I'm going to wait and see trajectory
at this point.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Be kay, you have a happy Thanksgiving with the turkey
and the kettlebells and whatever other things you're doing. I
appreciate you, My brother, the mashed potatoes. If I had
had time, I would have dug into that. I just
don't understand. No one's ever been able to explain it
(25:29):
to me. And every time I asked for an explanation,
all I get is tradition. The Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful Thanksgiving Eve, we still have more than an
hour on the show. Julie Kelly's gonna join us next hour.
But I promised you with just a little bit of
immigration talk courtesy of ilhan Omar, and wanted to put
(25:51):
a smile on your face about a few things, hopefully
before we get back to the things you're thankful for.
Ilhan Omar got up and she said, this terrorizing this nation,
we are helping it thrive. Somalis have always seen as
a fabric, has seen themselves as a fabric of this slation.
So not well, you're not. They always make these blanket
(26:16):
statements because they expect you to not push back. Somalis
have always seen themselves as part of the fabric of
this nation. Somalis did not come to the United States
of America till the nineteen nineties. I don't care how
you see yourself. It's Christy. The average IQ in Somalia
is below retardation. Did you know that? Did you know that?
(26:41):
I'm not making that up because of the inbreeding problem
in the country. Oh, I know, Chris, it's really nasty
because of that. There are all the birth defects that
come with that, and I believe last time I looked,
it was three points below what is considered metal retardation.
(27:05):
But these people have been brought into the United States
of America en mass by American politicians. Now that's the
bad news. The good news. Trump's DHS makes quote temporary
finally mean temporary again, revoking Biden's free pass for four
thousand nationals. Trump administration renews push to end TPS. That's
(27:29):
temporary protected status for three hundred and fifty thousand Haitians. Oh,
I forgot. When we weren't bringing in people from Somalia,
we were bringing in people by the hundreds of thousands
from Haiti, where they ate each other the voodoo culture
of Haiti. Headline tom Omen says, hold on tight. We're
(27:50):
tripling ice deportation operations. So let's focus on some good.
Let's focus on your good. Jesse. This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful
for welcoming my second baby girl in four weeks and
having my wonderful wife recover well. I'm also thankful for
my dad being two years sober this Christmas? How about that? Lastly,
(28:13):
I'm thankful to have Jesse continuing to find alternatives to
college for my girls. How about That's a that's a good.
That's a lot to be thankful for you there, Jesse.
I'm thankful for the decision my husband and I made
at a very young age. Listen to this one. He
needed a transplant before we married and knew we might
(28:33):
have limited time together, so we decided to save some
for retirement and enjoy the time we had together. He
did live forty seven years, which was amazing since his
life expectancy was only eight years at the time. It
will be five years in December. He's been gone. I
miss him every day, but I never regret the decision
(28:57):
and to spend our money and time together because people
save for retirement and do nothing. Says not to mention
her name and I will not, And God bless you lady.
How about that? How about that? All that loss. She's grateful,
grateful for the time she had. I have been. I
(29:19):
would not say wrestling with it, because that's not true
and that's not fair of Yes, you know last year
I lost my dad. A year ago, you were in
a month. As a matter of fact, you're in a
month ago. I lost my dad and it was sudden.
It was not expected. That's why, all of a sudden
you turn on the radio and I was gone for
a week and everyone thought I was dead, wondering where
I went. It's because my dad died all of a
(29:40):
sudden heart attacking his sleep. In case you're wondering, went
sleep one night. The best way to go in the world, right,
go to sleep, don't wake up. Nobody gets to go
out like that. So go to sleep one night, then
wake up. And he was I think three weeks. Yeah,
three weeks shy of his seventieth birthday, which that's about
(30:02):
as long as the Kelly men generally have. So did
it three week shot. And I know this is going
to sound so pathetic. I know it is, but I'm
just bearing my soul to you for a minute. I'm
in a good mood on a Thanksgiving I thought I
might as well just come out and say it. I
have had moments, not the whole time, but I've had
(30:22):
moments where I feel a little cheated and it's totally
this is awful, But it usually comes from jealousy, not
like a hateful kind of jealousy. But for instance, last
time I felt this way, we went to one of
the local our kids high school football game. Went to
the high school football game, and there was a grandpa there.
(30:48):
There's actually several sets of grandparents there that were clearly
older than seventy watching their grandkid play. And I was
singing to myself, well, that really sucks. I don't have
mine anymore. And by the way, this is lame. I
know this is lame and completely selfish. I realize that,
but those are the moments where I feel a little cheated.
(31:08):
Sixty nine. Some guys have their dads until they're seventy five,
eighty five. I mean people in my life. Both OB's
grandmas are over ninety, could have had twenty more years.
But what is that, right. That's comparing your life, your
circumstances to someone else, and that will make you miserable
(31:30):
and bitter. One hundred percent of the time. He makes
what I make, He has what I don't have. She
looks like I want to look. She did. The truth
is that I'm grateful that I had sixty nine years
with my father. That is really where I rest the most.
I'm believing I'm not full of bitterness. I'm not, but
when I have my moments, that's what they're about. Man,
(31:52):
I wanted five more years. I wanted ten more years.
I had the exact number of years God wanted to
have with my father, and then he took him home.
And I'm grateful. I thank him for it. Jesse. I'm
thankful that I don't have to worry about Thanksgiving dinner
being rated for breaking COVID rules. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.
(32:15):
His name's Chuck. Not something to actually just dismiss. Although
that's a funny email. Remember where we were? Was it
five years ago? I've tried to block it out. I
have PTSD from the whole thing. We were being scolded
by our government masters, how you can't go over to
your grandma's and eat corn bread on Thanksgiving? Lectured. Remember
(32:36):
that horrible time. And I know we're still suffering from
all the financial consequences and other consequences of that. That's
something to be grateful for, isn't it. We no longer
live and under a medical tyranny in this country. That's
something something to be grateful for. That was not the
best of times in America. I think we all would agree,
(32:57):
You know what is the best pure talk. I love them,
I just freaking love them.
