Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Jesse Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show.
On a wonderful Thursday, I have been having a real
good time. We're going to talk about COVID shots. The
chief of NATO just said something horrifying. There was another
museum heist. People were leaving college. We have emails. There's
so much to get to in the final hour of
(00:22):
The Jesse Kelly Show. Now I should let you know
this about the whole Rhodesian history thing. Since we just
finished Part three, I told you Part four is going
to be Monday, not tomorrow. Tomorrow's ask Doctor Jesse Friday,
but Part four's Monday. And originally, talking to Chris and
Corey about it, we were going to start it again
(00:43):
on Tuesday, because you know, Monday's Medal of Honor Monday.
I began to grow concerned.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Why.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'll just tell you how last night went. I wasn't
going to tell you. I was talking to Chris about
it beforehand, and he said, you should tell them this.
I have an obsessive personality that can sound wonderful, and
it can be wonderful and it can also be terrible.
If I have a song I like old or new,
(01:18):
I am that guy. I will listen to it ten
times in a row, and within two days I will
hate it. I'll never want to hear it again because
I obsess over it. Isn't that stupid, It's stupid. It
is with food. I do this. When I find a
new restaurant, a new sandwich, a new something, I'll eat
(01:39):
it as often as I can until I'm sick of it,
and then I hate it forever. It's a stupid, stupid thing.
When it comes to things like history stuff, when I
find a topic that fascinates me, I just consume it
in every I possibly can. Last night, you know I've
(02:04):
already I told you I had finished all my research
on the Rhodesian bushboard stuff, so I thought I could
bring you a good history thing of it. Last night.
Bob was tired, went to bed. The boys were stuck
with all this homework, so I had nobody to hang
out with last night. I spent my night doing more
research on it, so I the notes got bigger last night.
(02:30):
Therefore I am. I think I think one or two
more episodes I think should be it. I think, and
that'll already make it the longest one we've ever done.
I came in today, and I told Chris the same thing.
I'm gonna tell you now. I started to get a
little worried about not finishing before Christmas. I'm not going
(02:53):
to do that to you. I swear if my final
show before Christmas or the Christmas break has to be
the whole, I will not leave you on a cliffhanger
for the Christmas break. I swear I will not do that.
I will not. But I started to get a little
bit concerned. And so there you are, all right. I
think tomorrow, not tomorrow, but Monday, when I do the
(03:15):
next one, there'll be individual operations I'll go into that
are freaking sick. It's just amazing. You're gonna love it
all right now, Chris, since we touched on it in
the opening hour, I'm gonna go ahead and play for
you something the head of NATO said. And when you
consider that Larry Fink from Black Rock is involved in
(03:37):
the Russia Ukraine negotiations, and then you hear things like this,
it does tend to raise your eyebrows.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
No, we need to be ready because at the end
of this first quarter off the twenty first century, conflicts
are no longer fought at arms length. Conflict is at
our door. Russia has brought war back to Europe, and
(04:07):
you must be prepared for the skill of war. Our
grandparents and great grandparents and George imagine it.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Go ahead, stop, go ahead, stop what Russia is at
our doorstep and we must be prepared for the scale
of war. Our grandparents endured there's going to be a
World War three. Now, I hate to be a conspiracy theorist,
(04:37):
and I'm not going to spend a long time on this,
but just gonna put this out there. Europe, European countries,
certainly the major ones, Germany, Britain, France, they have filled
their countries up with third world barbarians to a degree
that honestly puts us to shame with what we've done here.
(04:59):
They have filled their countries up with third world barbarians.
They are everywhere. They have taken political power in these places,
and the barbarians, they of course can't help themselves. They're
acting like barbarians, murdering and raping and stealing everything, you know,
all the things barbarians do. We have seen in recent
(05:19):
years the rise of what they call right wing political parties,
but they're not even that right wing, just native patriotic
European parties rising up saying get these people out, no deportations,
get them out. It's such a problem. In France, they're
arresting the opposition leader, the quote right wing opposition leader
(05:40):
who wanted to deport people. Now again, I don't want
to be a conspiracy theorist, but if war was to
break out with Russia, let's just call it Russia and Europe.
If war was to break out, who do you think
would be signing up to join the militaries of those
(06:01):
European countries to go fight those dirty Ruskies. Do you
think the uh one hundred thousand men who just got
there from Syria are going to run and put on
a German uniform? Or do you think it would be
native patriotic Germans putting on a German uniform to go
(06:22):
fight and die. Now, hypothetically speaking, let's say I'm an
evil communist tyrant in charge of We'll just say Germany.
I'm an evil communist tyrant. I hate my people, certainly
the patriots. They are the only threat to my power.
(06:42):
I just want all the money and power in the world,
and I want to import as many third worlders as
I can to make sure they'll give me political power. Okay,
what would be a really, really great way to get
rid of some of those pesky patriots you're following with me.
(07:07):
It's not hard to imagine communist European leaders sending their
own men to be slaughtered on purpose. And then could
you imagine the home front in Britain, France, Germany if
all those patriotic young men clearly the only thing holding
(07:29):
the animals at bay. Now all those patriotic men went
to go die in Ukraine and all the animals are
left back home with the women and children. Yeah, let's
hope that doesn't come all right? All right? Now, there's
an article out in the Atlantic, and I am not
(07:51):
going to spend a lot of time on it because
I think it's almost pointless at this point in time.
But the headline is, yes, some children may have died
from COVID shop. My wife had a conversation today with
a friend of hers. This lady is in her mid
forties and she is a triathlete. Triathlete, she has a
(08:16):
hard time forming sentences. Now you know why she has
a hard time forming sentences. She went and got two
COVID shots and stroked out at forty four. Now she
has to spend her time. Lovely Lady has to spend
her time learning how to talk again. They're printing articles
(08:38):
now about the children who died from the COVID shot.
They're printing studies now indicating an astronomical rise in cancer
for people who took the COVID shot. Who's going to
prison for this? Because I remember both political parties in America.
(09:03):
I remember our medical institutions in America. I remember all
kinds of doctors doing everything they could do to manipulate
you in me into shooting that poison into our bodies.
In fact, I remember the Democrat President of the United
States of America signing an executive order trying to have
(09:25):
all of us fired if we didn't take the COVID chop.
And now years later, you think you can just print
some studies and articles talking about how it killed kids,
destroyed lives, and no one goes to prison for that.
We demand justice, and if these institutions ever won our
(09:49):
trust back, they would start throwing some of their own
into prison. I am deeply sorry if you yourself have
suffered from some of this, and I know that the
chances are you have it aggravates me to no end.
I hope the bad people who did this to us
suffer in some way. I know that's probably not Christian,
(10:11):
but I do. I hope the people who did this
to us for money and power, I hope they suffer.
I hope they suffer in the same way you suffer.
Let's do some emails, shall we. I got to clear
out some room anyway, We'll do a museum heist and
some emails. Next time it is the Jesse Kelly Show
on a magnificent Thursday. Do not forget that Tomorrow is
(10:34):
ask Doctor Jesse Friday, and you need to get your
questions emailed in right now. Don't wait till tomorrow. They're
already stacking up on us. Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Jesse isn't Jasmine Crockett a representative from Dallas. For the
love of a just merciful God, tell me there's no
chance in hades she could be elected senator in Texas.
(10:57):
Isn't corning bad enough? No, Jasmine Crockett's not going to
get elected senator in Texas. Jasmine Crockets run for Senate
in p in in Texas is just It's just a
popularity play. It's just it's just a play to raise
her brand. As I told you before, when you raise money,
why does uh what does Coca Cola advertise on TV?
(11:21):
What is the point that costs a lot of money
to buy ad spots to produce the TV commercials? Why
do you do that? You're always trying to get knowledge
of your brand out there. It only helps Coca Cola
if more people know about Coca Cola, crave a Coca Cola.
These scumbag politicians who have no sense of duty whatsoever,
(11:43):
like Jasmine Crockett, that they don't ever think about your country,
or their district, or their stavy, those thoughts. They don't
have time for those thoughts. They only think about themselves.
How do I get more famous? How do I get
more popular? How do I get on more private jets
five star hotels? It's just selfish, narcissistic scumbags is what
they all are. If your Jasmine Crockett, if she gets
(12:07):
the Democrat nomination for Senate in Texas, and there's probably
a good shot at that because the Democrat primary voting
base are a bunch of brain dead communist animals. So
if they choose Jasmine Crockett. Now, well, Jasmine Crockett's going
to have tens of millions of dollars to spend building
(12:29):
her brand. Yes, it's going to be a losing campaign.
I mean, look, you just can't. You can't do that.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
You're going to flip the house. But what good is
flipping the house if the only thing that we're doing
is shine a light on all the bad that is
being done. The only way that you don't know what
was being done is if you're just not paying attention. Like,
it is clear that they are criminals. It is clear
that they have killed people. It is clear that they
don't give it up about the people that actually voted
for them. All of this stuff is clear.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
She's not going to get elected in Texas. But by
the time time she's done losing her Senate raise, her
brand will be bigger than it is now. Jesse so
much eleftics. Tactics are designed to put us on the defensive.
The other day I made a comment about a movie
and a lefty said, oh, so it's okay for a
manned event, but not okay for a woman. My comment
had nothing to do with gender whatsoever, and as I explained, myself.
(13:21):
I realized I'd already lost the battle. When these things
come up and I feel the need to defend or
explain myself, what is a better way to respond? I
need go to responses so I don't fall into this trap.
Any advice? Okay, Well, first of all, you already recognize
that it is a trap. Remember when communists, when your
(13:41):
liberal aunt Pegy says you're a Nazi. It's designed to
put you on the defensive. That's why they do that.
They want you to stop talking about issues, logic, statistics,
any of these things. If instead they have you talking
about not a Nazi, but what are you talking about?
(14:03):
I have black friends, I know Jewish producer Chris. I
can't be a nut. You've already lost now by insulting
you with false accusations, the communist has you arguing about
something that's completely unrelated to their communism. So the first
thing you have to you have to know, and you
(14:24):
have to know this. You have to know they're trying
to hurt your feelings to create an emotional response. Just
don't let them. And this can be easier for some.
For instance, a soulless person like me, What does my
mentor Michael Berry call me a sociopathic narcissist, a soulless
(14:44):
person like me. I can't be offended. It's not possible
for you to offend me, for anybody to offend me,
it's just not You can insult my face, my life,
my wife, my beliefs. None of it will offend me.
I'm not gonna lose a minute, a sleepover. I don't care.
That's that's harder for nice people, for good people. But
if you're a nice, good person, certainly women, this this
(15:06):
hurts women. Don't let them get to you like that.
Don't let just let those false accusations brush right by you.
And always remember you play offense with the communist if
you feel the need to respond. You do not defend
yourself against false, ridiculous accusations. If they lob one, you
(15:32):
lob one right back. They're a Nazi, you're a pedophile.
What I never No, no, no, no, no, you're a pedophile.
You can't call me that. Hey, we're making unfounded, really
insulting accusations here, So you're a pedophile. Prove me wrong,
Prove me. I love doing it to people. When they
try that with me, they get so completely discombobulated, because
(15:56):
the tactic itself is designed to have you on defense,
not offense. They make an accusation if you feel the
need to respond, and remember you don't always have to.
They make an accusation, you make one, and remember probably
the most effective way is to just be calm about it.
(16:17):
They're banking on you getting angry. That's what they want.
They want your anger when you stay calm and never
let them get off the subject at hand. Maybe you're
talking about illegal immigration. Maybe they thought calling you a
Nazi would work. Maybe they'd dropped some stupid bumper sticker
line immigrants built America. They love that one. Never let
(16:39):
them off of the topic. No, no, no, no, no no.
We're talking about the Somali fraud in Minneapolis. Well, immigrants
built this country. I'm talking about the Somali fraud in Minneapolis.
Do you want to address the Smali fraud in Minneapol.
Well you're a Nazi. We're talking about the Somali fraud
in Minneapolis. Are we going to address this? Some don't
let them get you off the subject. They're trying to
get you off the subject. All right, all right, let's
(17:02):
talk about people leaving college in a museum heist. Next
Titi is The Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent, magnificent Thursday.
Tomorrow's Ask Doctor Jesse Friday. Get your questions emailed in

(17:23):
iHeart Spotify iTunes. Gavin Newsom, much as I despise him
as a pretty savvy political operator, Gavin Newsom has wanted
to be president since well probably since he came out
of the womb, doesn't even really hide the fact he
want to be president. He's one of those guys, which
(17:43):
means I'm very surprised he was dumb enough to put
this on camera. Sits down on some lefty podcast and
says this, we didn't.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Get into transports.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
That's an issue no one wants to hear about because
eighty percent of people listening disagree with my position on this.
But it comes from oh my heart, not just my head.
It wasn't a political evolution in your decision being that.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I don't think it's fair. I want to see trans kids.
I have a trans godson. There's no governance.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I want to see trans kids. This is a different
political world than one that has really ever existed in
history because so much is social media driven now, So
much advertising is social media driven now. Even when I
(18:34):
was running for Congress, which is not ancient history, it's
twenty ten, it's that's fifteen years ago. We had a budget.
You know, you had to raise money to run for Congress.
We had a budget, and your money it all went
to television commercials and of course things you would mail
out to people, little cards, you know, I'm the best,
my opponent's the devil, that kind of that kind of thing,
(18:57):
bumper stickers and whatnot. But really the main, the main
advertising form was television commercials. You wanted to go buy
TV spots on Fox News or the History Channel or
wherever TV commercials. But today, yes, there's still money in
TV commercials, that money goes a lot of it to
(19:19):
social media now. I remember I sat down with the
United States senator who I know, he was running for
reelection at the time, and he pulled up for me
and excel spreadsheet of their campaign finances and where it went.
Now this is a United States senator. They were spending
(19:41):
more money on online advertising than television advertising. So what's
this have to do with Gavin Newsom? Well, human beings
today do not have the attention span they used to have,
not dogging on us. But it's just that's the social
media world. Everything is fa now quick. People just don't
(20:02):
have that same level of attention. Campaigns now run on
ten fifteen second online ads that they get dropped into
that YouTube channel you're watching or that podcast you're listening to.
That's where advertising money is spent. Gavin Newsome is on
(20:26):
the way wrong end of an eighty twenty issue for
the American people. The tranny stuff grosses people out. They
think it's weird, probably evil. They don't want anything to
do with it, and they most definitely do not want
it in front of their children. They don't want their
children to do it. This is an issue the LGBTQ
(20:50):
demon mob has officially lost. They've lost on this issue.
The American people are done with it now. Gavin Newsom
understands full well. Every time he speaks in a sentence,
every single time that sentence, it could be clipped for
(21:10):
an ad against him in the future. Believe me, these
people think in this way. Every single time he talks,
it can be used against him in the future, and
when they run that political ad in the future, they're
not going to be nice and provide any kind of
context at all. Now, let's fast forward to twenty twenty eight.
(21:31):
We've finished a primary season, we have a GOP nominee,
we have a Democrat nominee. Let's just say, for the
sake of argument, Gavin Newsom is the Democrat nominee for president.
How much money do you think the Republicans are going
to spend making sure every person who watches TV spends
(21:53):
time on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, snapchat, anything else. How
much time and money do you think Republicans are going
to spend making sure every parent in the United States
of America sees the Democrat nominee say that, And.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
We didn't get into transports.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
That's an issue no one wants to hear about because
eighty percent of people listening disagree with my position on this.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
But it comes from my heart, not just my head.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
It wasn't a political evolution incision, being that I don't
think it's fair.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I want to see trans kids. I have a transcar.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I want to see trans kids. Is going to be
in so many GOP ads they're going to drown Gavin
Newsom in that. I know why he did it. I
actually asked my buddy John Phillips about it because I had.
I said to him, Hey, this is a very sharp
political guy. As much as I hate him, Why would
(22:50):
he do this? He knows, he knows it's a losing issue.
You even hear him in the clip. I know eighty
percent of the people listening disagree with me. He knows
the numbers, he knows the issue. Why did he do it? Well?
He tried to do the conservative podcast circuit, was on
some shows. He was on Sean Ryan's show. Sean Ryan's
a great dude, and Seawan asked him about the tranny stuff.
(23:11):
And you remember he tried to walk that tight rope
on the Sean Ryan Show. Remember when we played that
clip for you. He's doing the best he can to
try to walk the tight rope. So the anti tranny
people kind of think he's with them, but the pro
training people think is with them. Remember what business out went?
What about for your values?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I mean, is eight years old too young?
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I mean, look.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Now that I have a nine year old just became nine.
Come on, man, I get it. So those are legit.
You know, it's interesting just the issue of age. I
haven't I'm as I and there's someone that's been so
focused on equality broadly LGBT rights, they'll gay marriage. The
(24:01):
trans issue for me is also novels. It's over the
last few years. I'm trying to understand as much as
anyone else, whole pronoun thing, trying to understand all of that.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
He was trying to walk that tightrope. I asked John
Phillips why he would screw up and say I want
to see trans kids. John Phillips said, Gavin Newsom got
crucified in his own party for that SoundBite you just heard.
Gavin Newsom tried to walk the tightrope, and the Communists
(24:36):
savaged him for it, forcing him to do the left
wing podcast Circuit now and talk about how pro tranny
he is. So anyway, unrelated, I'm going to read you
two different headlines that are Wow, what a great what
a great combination. Headline Drexel Medical School module makes anti
(24:59):
racism and CRT part of doctor's ethical duty. That's from
campus reform. I think that pairs very well with this headline.
More than half of college graduates are working in jobs
that don't require degrees. The American people are slowly catching
(25:20):
on to the fact that college is a ripoff lots
of the time, and you can go and spend a
fortune and get that degree, maybe lose your mind, maybe
lose your soul, and there's a decent chance at the
back end of that you won't even be able to
find a job in the field where you got the degree.
(25:44):
Parents are starting to catch on to the fact that
the kids are getting brainwashed, and probably just it's importantly corporations,
companies in America, they're starting to catch on to the
fact that that college degree that's not a guarantee of anything.
In fact, there's a possibility that college degree is a
red flag. Wait you went to school where what? Ooh,
(26:07):
you're not a communist, are you. Companies are figuring out
the product they're getting from the university system is subpar,
and they're looking elsewhere. That's why corporate America is eliminating
its degree requirement for so many positions. Just remember the
trade schools are out there. A museum heist. Next it
(26:31):
is The Jesse Kelly Show. Final segment of The Jesse
Kelly Show on a Magnificent Thursday. Get your questions emailed
in for tomorrow Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. Had
a blast doing more Rhodesian Bush War history. Part three
was tonight. Part four is Monday. We'll do medal of
(26:53):
honor Monday, and then we'll tackle it. Don't worry, I'm
not going to shaft you out of a whole segment
on the Rhodesian Bushwar on Monday. I'll go an extra
segment on it an hour three on Monday. That way,
you get the full hour as promised. All right, all right, Jesse.
Ignoring the CBO's charts for a second, what do you
(27:16):
think there is the realistic timeframe to get the national
debt from over thirty four trillion to zero dollars? Is
it fifty years, one hundred two hundred Oh never? Never, yeah, never.
You can't pay off thirty seven trillion dollars in debt.
It's not possible. And you know another thing that's holding
(27:37):
us back is they're not even trying. Remember, they run
on spending. Inflation is bad because of spending and money printing,
and yet they never cut spending ever, even the scheduled
increases in spending. If somebody in Washington talks about increasing
(28:01):
the scheduled increase, like hey, we're gonna spend ten percent
more next year. And some guy says, ah, the debt's
really bad, could we make it five percent? That guy
is treated as some soulless monster who wants people to die.
I am convinced that they will never cut spending until
(28:23):
we have something catastrophic. Who knows what that would be, right,
a great depression, a complete collapse at the currency. You're
better off, your mental health is better off if you
never think about it. All right, just do yourself a
favor when it comes to debt. What Chris Chris said,
what happens when countries break up? What happens to that debt?
(28:46):
A variety of things happen. But I'll tell you this,
other countries will buy it. Other countries will buy up
the debt, and they'll get It's a big, old freaking mess.
Thirty seven trillion dollars. By the way, I think I
found some people for our secret club. I am. Yes,
we are getting your emails, your applications. People are trying
(29:07):
to buy their way in. Women are of course dying
to get in, but they are barred from entry. Ladies,
you are not allowed in, and it's because you're a woman.
I can't make this clear. Remember that discrimination is underrated.
I am a huge fan of discrimination. We do not
(29:28):
let foreigners in, we do not let women in. This
is a secret club for American men. However, these guys
might have a place in it. More than six hundred
British Empire artifacts are stolen from a museum. I'm not
saying we're an illegal club, and I don't want anybody
(29:51):
stealing things, but I feel like, I feel like, on
the kind of missions we're going to be on, it
would be beneficial to have a heist crew of some kind,
don't you, Chris, I feel like a heist crew. What what? Oh? Yeah,
(30:11):
I forgot. You're not allowed in. Well, I can still
ask you questions. Maybe one day. Maybe one day, we'll
let you do some accounting or something for us, something
for us. You're the fence. Good call, yeah, definitely the
Jewelry friends, there's no question about that. Everyone knows you
probably know people. That's a really good call, Jesse. If
(30:33):
you won't do a history dive on Stalin, will you
do one on the East India Trading Company? Feels it
fits very well with your assessment of the British Empire,
so on and so forth. We've done history stuff on
Stalin before, haven't we, Chris, They've talked a lot a
lot of Stalin. I feel like we've talked a lot
of Stalin. Maybe I haven't. Maybe I haven't done a
lot of Stalin. East India Trading Company is actually a
(30:55):
very fascinating story as well. But the problem is, I'm
our aready doing a long Rhodesian Bush War history thing
that's a year, that's an an English colony. I have
no earthly idea what the next history story I'm gonna do.
I have no idea what it's going to be on.
(31:16):
I feel like it can't be that because it's kind
of it's similar, totally different era, but very similar what Chris.
Chris said, maybe next December. Look, buddy, let's not plan
out the whole next year. I don't know what I
I don't know what I want to do the next
one on. If you have something that's near and dear
to your heart, you're welcome to ask. I may very
(31:38):
well say no, I don't know, but you're welcome to ask. Anyway,
here we go and now.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Here's a headline.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Why oh you know that?
Speaker 3 (31:46):
You know the thing?
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Headlines? We didn't get to Japan. Hundreds get car driving
licenses suspended for drunk cycling. Apparently they were almost nine
hundred cyclists they got their driver's licenses suspended. Now, drinking
and driving is bad, But why is drinking and driving bad?
(32:11):
Because you can hurt other people? Right, if you're drinking
and cycling, you're only going to hurt yourself. I don't
even know that that should be against the law. GOP
lawmaker unveils a bill to ensure father's shoulder fifty percent
of the pregnancy expenses. Yes, that's exactly what we need
(32:32):
in this country. More laws that attack men when it
comes to fatherhood and marriage. That has definitely worked out
very very well for us so far. Federal judge strikes
down Trump's executive order blocking wind energy projects. We can
never take this country back completely until we remove judges.
The low TGP we have now doesn't have the stomach
(32:54):
for it in the future, though we will har Meat Dylan,
who I love AOC is created in a lab, but
still better for Dems than Newsome. She is well aware
of Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom may be a problem for us.
The Trump administration seizes an oil tanker off the Venezuelan
coast I want an oil tanker. They're just so big.
(33:18):
I would like to actually live on an oil tanker
if you could fit it, because they're huge. Chris, they're huge,
and it'd be really cool. We could do like a
pirate radio show from there, be amazing. Ask doctor Jesse.
Friday is amazing and it's coming tomorrow. You ready to
have some fun? That's all
The Jesse Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show.
On a wonderful Thursday, I have been having a real
good time. We're going to talk about COVID shots. The
chief of NATO just said something horrifying. There was another
museum heist. People were leaving college. We have emails. There's
so much to get to in the final hour of
(00:22):
The Jesse Kelly Show. Now I should let you know
this about the whole Rhodesian history thing. Since we just
finished Part three, I told you Part four is going
to be Monday, not tomorrow. Tomorrow's ask Doctor Jesse Friday,
but Part four's Monday. And originally, talking to Chris and
Corey about it, we were going to start it again
(00:43):
on Tuesday, because you know, Monday's Medal of Honor Monday.
I began to grow concerned.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Why.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'll just tell you how last night went. I wasn't
going to tell you. I was talking to Chris about
it beforehand, and he said, you should tell them this.
I have an obsessive personality that can sound wonderful, and
it can be wonderful and it can also be terrible.
If I have a song I like old or new,
(01:18):
I am that guy. I will listen to it ten
times in a row, and within two days I will
hate it. I'll never want to hear it again because
I obsess over it. Isn't that stupid, It's stupid. It
is with food. I do this. When I find a
new restaurant, a new sandwich, a new something, I'll eat
(01:39):
it as often as I can until I'm sick of it,
and then I hate it forever. It's a stupid, stupid thing.
When it comes to things like history stuff, when I
find a topic that fascinates me, I just consume it
in every I possibly can. Last night, you know I've
(02:04):
already I told you I had finished all my research
on the Rhodesian bushboard stuff, so I thought I could
bring you a good history thing of it. Last night.
Bob was tired, went to bed. The boys were stuck
with all this homework, so I had nobody to hang
out with last night. I spent my night doing more
research on it, so I the notes got bigger last night.
(02:30):
Therefore I am. I think I think one or two
more episodes I think should be it. I think, and
that'll already make it the longest one we've ever done.
I came in today, and I told Chris the same thing.
I'm gonna tell you now. I started to get a
little worried about not finishing before Christmas. I'm not going
(02:53):
to do that to you. I swear if my final
show before Christmas or the Christmas break has to be
the whole, I will not leave you on a cliffhanger
for the Christmas break. I swear I will not do that.
I will not. But I started to get a little
bit concerned. And so there you are, all right. I
think tomorrow, not tomorrow, but Monday, when I do the
(03:15):
next one, there'll be individual operations I'll go into that
are freaking sick. It's just amazing. You're gonna love it
all right now, Chris, since we touched on it in
the opening hour, I'm gonna go ahead and play for
you something the head of NATO said. And when you
consider that Larry Fink from Black Rock is involved in
(03:37):
the Russia Ukraine negotiations, and then you hear things like this,
it does tend to raise your eyebrows.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
No, we need to be ready because at the end
of this first quarter off the twenty first century, conflicts
are no longer fought at arms length. Conflict is at
our door. Russia has brought war back to Europe, and
(04:07):
you must be prepared for the skill of war. Our
grandparents and great grandparents and George imagine it.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Go ahead, stop, go ahead, stop what Russia is at
our doorstep and we must be prepared for the scale
of war. Our grandparents endured there's going to be a
World War three. Now, I hate to be a conspiracy theorist,
(04:37):
and I'm not going to spend a long time on this,
but just gonna put this out there. Europe, European countries,
certainly the major ones, Germany, Britain, France, they have filled
their countries up with third world barbarians to a degree
that honestly puts us to shame with what we've done here.
(04:59):
They have filled their countries up with third world barbarians.
They are everywhere. They have taken political power in these places,
and the barbarians, they of course can't help themselves. They're
acting like barbarians, murdering and raping and stealing everything, you know,
all the things barbarians do. We have seen in recent
(05:19):
years the rise of what they call right wing political parties,
but they're not even that right wing, just native patriotic
European parties rising up saying get these people out, no deportations,
get them out. It's such a problem. In France, they're
arresting the opposition leader, the quote right wing opposition leader
(05:40):
who wanted to deport people. Now again, I don't want
to be a conspiracy theorist, but if war was to
break out with Russia, let's just call it Russia and Europe.
If war was to break out, who do you think
would be signing up to join the militaries of those
(06:01):
European countries to go fight those dirty Ruskies. Do you
think the uh one hundred thousand men who just got
there from Syria are going to run and put on
a German uniform? Or do you think it would be
native patriotic Germans putting on a German uniform to go
(06:22):
fight and die. Now, hypothetically speaking, let's say I'm an
evil communist tyrant in charge of We'll just say Germany.
I'm an evil communist tyrant. I hate my people, certainly
the patriots. They are the only threat to my power.
(06:42):
I just want all the money and power in the world,
and I want to import as many third worlders as
I can to make sure they'll give me political power. Okay,
what would be a really, really great way to get
rid of some of those pesky patriots you're following with me.
(07:07):
It's not hard to imagine communist European leaders sending their
own men to be slaughtered on purpose. And then could
you imagine the home front in Britain, France, Germany if
all those patriotic young men clearly the only thing holding
(07:29):
the animals at bay. Now all those patriotic men went
to go die in Ukraine and all the animals are
left back home with the women and children. Yeah, let's
hope that doesn't come all right? All right? Now, there's
an article out in the Atlantic, and I am not
(07:51):
going to spend a lot of time on it because
I think it's almost pointless at this point in time.
But the headline is, yes, some children may have died
from COVID shop. My wife had a conversation today with
a friend of hers. This lady is in her mid
forties and she is a triathlete. Triathlete, she has a
(08:16):
hard time forming sentences. Now you know why she has
a hard time forming sentences. She went and got two
COVID shots and stroked out at forty four. Now she
has to spend her time. Lovely Lady has to spend
her time learning how to talk again. They're printing articles
(08:38):
now about the children who died from the COVID shot.
They're printing studies now indicating an astronomical rise in cancer
for people who took the COVID shot. Who's going to
prison for this? Because I remember both political parties in America.
(09:03):
I remember our medical institutions in America. I remember all
kinds of doctors doing everything they could do to manipulate
you in me into shooting that poison into our bodies.
In fact, I remember the Democrat President of the United
States of America signing an executive order trying to have
(09:25):
all of us fired if we didn't take the COVID chop.
And now years later, you think you can just print
some studies and articles talking about how it killed kids,
destroyed lives, and no one goes to prison for that.
We demand justice, and if these institutions ever won our
(09:49):
trust back, they would start throwing some of their own
into prison. I am deeply sorry if you yourself have
suffered from some of this, and I know that the
chances are you have it aggravates me to no end.
I hope the bad people who did this to us
suffer in some way. I know that's probably not Christian,
(10:11):
but I do. I hope the people who did this
to us for money and power, I hope they suffer.
I hope they suffer in the same way you suffer.
Let's do some emails, shall we. I got to clear
out some room anyway, We'll do a museum heist and
some emails. Next time it is the Jesse Kelly Show
on a magnificent Thursday. Do not forget that Tomorrow is
(10:34):
ask Doctor Jesse Friday, and you need to get your
questions emailed in right now. Don't wait till tomorrow. They're
already stacking up on us. Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Jesse isn't Jasmine Crockett a representative from Dallas. For the
love of a just merciful God, tell me there's no
chance in hades she could be elected senator in Texas.
(10:57):
Isn't corning bad enough? No, Jasmine Crockett's not going to
get elected senator in Texas. Jasmine Crockets run for Senate
in p in in Texas is just It's just a
popularity play. It's just it's just a play to raise
her brand. As I told you before, when you raise money,
why does uh what does Coca Cola advertise on TV?
(11:21):
What is the point that costs a lot of money
to buy ad spots to produce the TV commercials? Why
do you do that? You're always trying to get knowledge
of your brand out there. It only helps Coca Cola
if more people know about Coca Cola, crave a Coca Cola.
These scumbag politicians who have no sense of duty whatsoever,
(11:43):
like Jasmine Crockett, that they don't ever think about your country,
or their district, or their stavy, those thoughts. They don't
have time for those thoughts. They only think about themselves.
How do I get more famous? How do I get
more popular? How do I get on more private jets
five star hotels? It's just selfish, narcissistic scumbags is what
they all are. If your Jasmine Crockett, if she gets
(12:07):
the Democrat nomination for Senate in Texas, and there's probably
a good shot at that because the Democrat primary voting
base are a bunch of brain dead communist animals. So
if they choose Jasmine Crockett. Now, well, Jasmine Crockett's going
to have tens of millions of dollars to spend building
(12:29):
her brand. Yes, it's going to be a losing campaign.
I mean, look, you just can't. You can't do that.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
You're going to flip the house. But what good is
flipping the house if the only thing that we're doing
is shine a light on all the bad that is
being done. The only way that you don't know what
was being done is if you're just not paying attention. Like,
it is clear that they are criminals. It is clear
that they have killed people. It is clear that they
don't give it up about the people that actually voted
for them. All of this stuff is clear.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
She's not going to get elected in Texas. But by
the time time she's done losing her Senate raise, her
brand will be bigger than it is now. Jesse so
much eleftics. Tactics are designed to put us on the defensive.
The other day I made a comment about a movie
and a lefty said, oh, so it's okay for a
manned event, but not okay for a woman. My comment
had nothing to do with gender whatsoever, and as I explained, myself.
(13:21):
I realized I'd already lost the battle. When these things
come up and I feel the need to defend or
explain myself, what is a better way to respond? I
need go to responses so I don't fall into this trap.
Any advice? Okay, Well, first of all, you already recognize
that it is a trap. Remember when communists, when your
(13:41):
liberal aunt Pegy says you're a Nazi. It's designed to
put you on the defensive. That's why they do that.
They want you to stop talking about issues, logic, statistics,
any of these things. If instead they have you talking
about not a Nazi, but what are you talking about?
(14:03):
I have black friends, I know Jewish producer Chris. I
can't be a nut. You've already lost now by insulting
you with false accusations, the communist has you arguing about
something that's completely unrelated to their communism. So the first
thing you have to you have to know, and you
(14:24):
have to know this. You have to know they're trying
to hurt your feelings to create an emotional response. Just
don't let them. And this can be easier for some.
For instance, a soulless person like me, What does my
mentor Michael Berry call me a sociopathic narcissist, a soulless
(14:44):
person like me. I can't be offended. It's not possible
for you to offend me, for anybody to offend me,
it's just not You can insult my face, my life,
my wife, my beliefs. None of it will offend me.
I'm not gonna lose a minute, a sleepover. I don't care.
That's that's harder for nice people, for good people. But
if you're a nice, good person, certainly women, this this
(15:06):
hurts women. Don't let them get to you like that.
Don't let just let those false accusations brush right by you.
And always remember you play offense with the communist if
you feel the need to respond. You do not defend
yourself against false, ridiculous accusations. If they lob one, you
(15:32):
lob one right back. They're a Nazi, you're a pedophile.
What I never No, no, no, no, no, you're a pedophile.
You can't call me that. Hey, we're making unfounded, really
insulting accusations here, So you're a pedophile. Prove me wrong,
Prove me. I love doing it to people. When they
try that with me, they get so completely discombobulated, because
(15:56):
the tactic itself is designed to have you on defense,
not offense. They make an accusation if you feel the
need to respond, and remember you don't always have to.
They make an accusation, you make one, and remember probably
the most effective way is to just be calm about it.
(16:17):
They're banking on you getting angry. That's what they want.
They want your anger when you stay calm and never
let them get off the subject at hand. Maybe you're
talking about illegal immigration. Maybe they thought calling you a
Nazi would work. Maybe they'd dropped some stupid bumper sticker
line immigrants built America. They love that one. Never let
(16:39):
them off of the topic. No, no, no, no, no no.
We're talking about the Somali fraud in Minneapolis. Well, immigrants
built this country. I'm talking about the Somali fraud in Minneapolis.
Do you want to address the Smali fraud in Minneapol.
Well you're a Nazi. We're talking about the Somali fraud
in Minneapolis. Are we going to address this? Some don't
let them get you off the subject. They're trying to
get you off the subject. All right, all right, let's
(17:02):
talk about people leaving college in a museum heist. Next
Titi is The Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent, magnificent Thursday.
Tomorrow's Ask Doctor Jesse Friday. Get your questions emailed in
If you missed any part of the show, download the podcast.
(17:23):
iHeart Spotify iTunes. Gavin Newsom, much as I despise him
as a pretty savvy political operator, Gavin Newsom has wanted
to be president since well probably since he came out
of the womb, doesn't even really hide the fact he
want to be president. He's one of those guys, which
(17:43):
means I'm very surprised he was dumb enough to put
this on camera. Sits down on some lefty podcast and
says this, we didn't.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Get into transports.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
That's an issue no one wants to hear about because
eighty percent of people listening disagree with my position on this.
But it comes from oh my heart, not just my head.
It wasn't a political evolution in your decision being that.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I don't think it's fair. I want to see trans kids.
I have a trans godson. There's no governance.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I want to see trans kids. This is a different
political world than one that has really ever existed in
history because so much is social media driven now, So
much advertising is social media driven now. Even when I
(18:34):
was running for Congress, which is not ancient history, it's
twenty ten, it's that's fifteen years ago. We had a budget.
You know, you had to raise money to run for Congress.
We had a budget, and your money it all went
to television commercials and of course things you would mail
out to people, little cards, you know, I'm the best,
my opponent's the devil, that kind of that kind of thing,
(18:57):
bumper stickers and whatnot. But really the main, the main
advertising form was television commercials. You wanted to go buy
TV spots on Fox News or the History Channel or
wherever TV commercials. But today, yes, there's still money in
TV commercials, that money goes a lot of it to
(19:19):
social media now. I remember I sat down with the
United States senator who I know, he was running for
reelection at the time, and he pulled up for me
and excel spreadsheet of their campaign finances and where it went.
Now this is a United States senator. They were spending
(19:41):
more money on online advertising than television advertising. So what's
this have to do with Gavin Newsom? Well, human beings
today do not have the attention span they used to have,
not dogging on us. But it's just that's the social
media world. Everything is fa now quick. People just don't
(20:02):
have that same level of attention. Campaigns now run on
ten fifteen second online ads that they get dropped into
that YouTube channel you're watching or that podcast you're listening to.
That's where advertising money is spent. Gavin Newsome is on
(20:26):
the way wrong end of an eighty twenty issue for
the American people. The tranny stuff grosses people out. They
think it's weird, probably evil. They don't want anything to
do with it, and they most definitely do not want
it in front of their children. They don't want their
children to do it. This is an issue the LGBTQ
(20:50):
demon mob has officially lost. They've lost on this issue.
The American people are done with it now. Gavin Newsom
understands full well. Every time he speaks in a sentence,
every single time that sentence, it could be clipped for
(21:10):
an ad against him in the future. Believe me, these
people think in this way. Every single time he talks,
it can be used against him in the future, and
when they run that political ad in the future, they're
not going to be nice and provide any kind of
context at all. Now, let's fast forward to twenty twenty eight.
(21:31):
We've finished a primary season, we have a GOP nominee,
we have a Democrat nominee. Let's just say, for the
sake of argument, Gavin Newsom is the Democrat nominee for president.
How much money do you think the Republicans are going
to spend making sure every person who watches TV spends
(21:53):
time on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, snapchat, anything else. How
much time and money do you think Republicans are going
to spend making sure every parent in the United States
of America sees the Democrat nominee say that, And.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
We didn't get into transports.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
That's an issue no one wants to hear about because
eighty percent of people listening disagree with my position on this.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
But it comes from my heart, not just my head.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
It wasn't a political evolution incision, being that I don't
think it's fair.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I want to see trans kids. I have a transcar.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I want to see trans kids. Is going to be
in so many GOP ads they're going to drown Gavin
Newsom in that. I know why he did it. I
actually asked my buddy John Phillips about it because I had.
I said to him, Hey, this is a very sharp
political guy. As much as I hate him, Why would
(22:50):
he do this? He knows, he knows it's a losing issue.
You even hear him in the clip. I know eighty
percent of the people listening disagree with me. He knows
the numbers, he knows the issue. Why did he do it? Well?
He tried to do the conservative podcast circuit, was on
some shows. He was on Sean Ryan's show. Sean Ryan's
a great dude, and Seawan asked him about the tranny stuff.
(23:11):
And you remember he tried to walk that tight rope
on the Sean Ryan Show. Remember when we played that
clip for you. He's doing the best he can to
try to walk the tight rope. So the anti tranny
people kind of think he's with them, but the pro
training people think is with them. Remember what business out went?
What about for your values?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I mean, is eight years old too young?
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I mean, look.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Now that I have a nine year old just became nine.
Come on, man, I get it. So those are legit.
You know, it's interesting just the issue of age. I
haven't I'm as I and there's someone that's been so
focused on equality broadly LGBT rights, they'll gay marriage. The
(24:01):
trans issue for me is also novels. It's over the
last few years. I'm trying to understand as much as
anyone else, whole pronoun thing, trying to understand all of that.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
He was trying to walk that tightrope. I asked John
Phillips why he would screw up and say I want
to see trans kids. John Phillips said, Gavin Newsom got
crucified in his own party for that SoundBite you just heard.
Gavin Newsom tried to walk the tightrope, and the Communists
(24:36):
savaged him for it, forcing him to do the left
wing podcast Circuit now and talk about how pro tranny
he is. So anyway, unrelated, I'm going to read you
two different headlines that are Wow, what a great what
a great combination. Headline Drexel Medical School module makes anti
(24:59):
racism and CRT part of doctor's ethical duty. That's from
campus reform. I think that pairs very well with this headline.
More than half of college graduates are working in jobs
that don't require degrees. The American people are slowly catching
(25:20):
on to the fact that college is a ripoff lots
of the time, and you can go and spend a
fortune and get that degree, maybe lose your mind, maybe
lose your soul, and there's a decent chance at the
back end of that you won't even be able to
find a job in the field where you got the degree.
(25:44):
Parents are starting to catch on to the fact that
the kids are getting brainwashed, and probably just it's importantly corporations,
companies in America, they're starting to catch on to the
fact that that college degree that's not a guarantee of anything.
In fact, there's a possibility that college degree is a
red flag. Wait you went to school where what? Ooh,
(26:07):
you're not a communist, are you. Companies are figuring out
the product they're getting from the university system is subpar,
and they're looking elsewhere. That's why corporate America is eliminating
its degree requirement for so many positions. Just remember the
trade schools are out there. A museum heist. Next it
(26:31):
is The Jesse Kelly Show. Final segment of The Jesse
Kelly Show on a Magnificent Thursday. Get your questions emailed
in for tomorrow Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. Had
a blast doing more Rhodesian Bush War history. Part three
was tonight. Part four is Monday. We'll do medal of
(26:53):
honor Monday, and then we'll tackle it. Don't worry, I'm
not going to shaft you out of a whole segment
on the Rhodesian Bushwar on Monday. I'll go an extra
segment on it an hour three on Monday. That way,
you get the full hour as promised. All right, all right, Jesse.
Ignoring the CBO's charts for a second, what do you
(27:16):
think there is the realistic timeframe to get the national
debt from over thirty four trillion to zero dollars? Is
it fifty years, one hundred two hundred Oh never? Never, yeah, never.
You can't pay off thirty seven trillion dollars in debt.
It's not possible. And you know another thing that's holding
(27:37):
us back is they're not even trying. Remember, they run
on spending. Inflation is bad because of spending and money printing,
and yet they never cut spending ever, even the scheduled
increases in spending. If somebody in Washington talks about increasing
(28:01):
the scheduled increase, like hey, we're gonna spend ten percent
more next year. And some guy says, ah, the debt's
really bad, could we make it five percent? That guy
is treated as some soulless monster who wants people to die.
I am convinced that they will never cut spending until
(28:23):
we have something catastrophic. Who knows what that would be, right,
a great depression, a complete collapse at the currency. You're
better off, your mental health is better off if you
never think about it. All right, just do yourself a
favor when it comes to debt. What Chris Chris said,
what happens when countries break up? What happens to that debt?
(28:46):
A variety of things happen. But I'll tell you this,
other countries will buy it. Other countries will buy up
the debt, and they'll get It's a big, old freaking mess.
Thirty seven trillion dollars. By the way, I think I
found some people for our secret club. I am. Yes,
we are getting your emails, your applications. People are trying
(29:07):
to buy their way in. Women are of course dying
to get in, but they are barred from entry. Ladies,
you are not allowed in, and it's because you're a woman.
I can't make this clear. Remember that discrimination is underrated.
I am a huge fan of discrimination. We do not
(29:28):
let foreigners in, we do not let women in. This
is a secret club for American men. However, these guys
might have a place in it. More than six hundred
British Empire artifacts are stolen from a museum. I'm not
saying we're an illegal club, and I don't want anybody
(29:51):
stealing things, but I feel like, I feel like, on
the kind of missions we're going to be on, it
would be beneficial to have a heist crew of some kind,
don't you, Chris, I feel like a heist crew. What what? Oh? Yeah,
(30:11):
I forgot. You're not allowed in. Well, I can still
ask you questions. Maybe one day. Maybe one day, we'll
let you do some accounting or something for us, something
for us. You're the fence. Good call, yeah, definitely the
Jewelry friends, there's no question about that. Everyone knows you
probably know people. That's a really good call, Jesse. If
(30:33):
you won't do a history dive on Stalin, will you
do one on the East India Trading Company? Feels it
fits very well with your assessment of the British Empire,
so on and so forth. We've done history stuff on
Stalin before, haven't we, Chris, They've talked a lot a
lot of Stalin. I feel like we've talked a lot
of Stalin. Maybe I haven't. Maybe I haven't done a
lot of Stalin. East India Trading Company is actually a
(30:55):
very fascinating story as well. But the problem is, I'm
our aready doing a long Rhodesian Bush War history thing
that's a year, that's an an English colony. I have
no earthly idea what the next history story I'm gonna do.
I have no idea what it's going to be on.
(31:16):
I feel like it can't be that because it's kind
of it's similar, totally different era, but very similar what Chris.
Chris said, maybe next December. Look, buddy, let's not plan

Headlines? We didn't get to Japan. Hundreds get car driving

hundred cyclists they got their driver's licenses suspended. Now, drinking
and driving is bad, But why is drinking and driving bad?
(32:11):
Because you can hurt other people? Right, if you're drinking
and cycling, you're only going to hurt yourself. I don't
even know that that should be against the law. GOP

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
