Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now, why would I want to play a compilation of
scenes from a nineteen eighties television show with Pierce Brosnan.

You know what they try to do to Genevieve Jean

Speaker 4 (01:02):
Murder?

Speaker 1 (01:03):
I play it because there are four movies that effectively
nail American society in twenty twenty four. We'll talk about
them in this with the help of Bulwark Capital Management
at Know Your riskpodcast dot com, and God Almighty.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
The Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by
big pharma technocrats in tyrants everywhere from the high mountains
of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exile Todd Herman.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Today is the day the Lord has made in. These
are the times through which God has decided we shall live.
I think people who are artistically minded often tap into
the spiritual world. Now. Sometimes it's because they're connected to
evil and demons can give them visions, and sometimes it's

(02:07):
because they're connected to God Almighty, or sometimes it's maybe
they're just super super creative, and creative people have an
ability to see things coming that others don't. Sometimes it's
through pattern recognition. Sometimes it's just through imagining outcomes. What
could occur if things continued the way they are, What
could occur if there was a massive change, What could

(02:27):
occur if there was let's say, a huge, massive flu worldwide,
What could that be like? What would it be like
if the United States broke up into nine districts or
over thirteen all ruled from Washington, d C. What would
it be like if people were being play replaced? We
didn't notice. So I think filmmakers have disability and authors

(02:52):
novelists have disability to sometimes tap into stuff that's coming
our way. And it looked at four films that I
think really describe and absolutely nail today's society, maybe not
just in America. And we'll start with this in just
a second. You've thought you nailed things down when you
started your business. Get the corporate veil, get your corporation,
your LLC. That means if someone sues you, God forbid,

(03:14):
they can't get at your bank accounts, personal accounts, and
retirement accounts and home equity, et cetera. And you thought
you nailed it. What if I told you that a
lot of people thought that but it was not true.
Because that is a fact. Folks have gone to gobisible
dot com taking them up on their free, no obligation consultation.
The folks that go visible with a Z dot com

(03:36):
will tell you if you have the corporate veil, and
if you do, great, congratulations, you're solid. If you don't,
you're at huge risk, and they will fix it for
you in seven easy steps that parts you pay for.
But the math is all on the side of getting
this done and getting it done now. So go find
out out if you have the corporate veil. I don't
care if you've been in business fifteen years. I don't

(03:57):
care if a tax accountant set it up. In each
of those cases, as people found out, whoops, I do
not have the corporate veil. The website is gobisible dot com.
I've often spoken about this movie as one of the
four films that really nails American society or society at
large today, and it's The Hunger Games. But I've commonly

(04:17):
talked about one specific scene. I mean, there's the entire
creation of the film. The entire meta narrative is something
related to America today, and it was a decade ago
or I started to talk about The Hunger Games when
it first came out, and I read the book, and
I read the book series, and then I sat downstairs,

(04:39):
laid downstairs with our daughter, and I recited the first
book to her from memory. I mean, I don't memorize it,
but you know, seen by scene and kind of going
back through and telling her the story my style, and
then we watched the films. So as I'm looking back
and realizing, we started to talk about the Hunger Games
way back down. I always talked about the scene with
Presidents Snow And if you don't know the movie Real Quick,

(05:03):
America has fallen apart. That's split up into these thirteen districts,
and Washington d C. Has been removed to Colorado. It's
up in the mountains. It's you know, now unapproachable. It's
a redoubts, it's hard to get into, et cetera. And
it's defensible, and they just sit and tell the districts
what to do and have credit wars in between the districts,

(05:23):
and there was a civil war, and to punish the people,
they now have this Hunger Games where young people are
forced to go into this arena and fight bots and
these these technologically built advanced weapons and fight each other
until there's one winner. And then one year, a young
woman named Catnus destroys their program because she refuses to

(05:45):
kill the young man from her districts she went in
there with and he was in love with her. She
pretended to be in love with him. Long story. So
they win together because they're going to kill each other
or kill each other. They're going to commit suicide if
they don't both win. They can't have that, so she
destroys the system. And there's this scene where President Snow

(06:07):
played by Donald Sutherland, visits her in this home she
won in the games, and he surprises her and they
have this terse conversation they clearly hate one another, and
Donald Trump says or Donald Trump, and Donald Sutherland says
after Catenas says, President Snow, what a pleasant surprise. This
is my dear Catnus or my dear miss Everdean, Let's

(06:28):
not lie to each other. Yes, that would save time.
Let's And at some point during their discussion, he says
to her, that's quite a trick you pulled with the berries.
And she said it must be a very fragile system
if it can be brought down with just a few berries,
and he says, oh, indeed it is, but not in
the way you think you've been in the Hunger Games.

(06:49):
Tell me, would you like to be in a real war.
She does not want to be in a real war.
So we talked about that scene. We haven't talked about
this one from the last movie, and copyright being what
copyright is? I have to talk over this a little bit,
so I'm going to do that. This is from Mockingbirds,
and what's happened is Catness and the rebels have won.

(07:13):
They have their leader, President Coin se same coin, different
side of the same coin, and she's given Catness the
right to kill President Snow. President Snow who put her
through the Hunger Games, was responsible for her sister's death,
responsible for just horrible atrocities and ruined her life, tried

(07:36):
to destroy her. So she's been given the right to
be the one to deliver the execution. And President Coin
is there as well. So here's Catness and President Coin
making this introduction. So the standing is huge.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Arena signify the end of tyranny.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
End of tyranny, the beginning and she does not know
what she's saying, the beginning of a new era. Now
see subtextually here understand that President Coin has decided to
bring back the Hunger Games just just one more time,
but this time it's going to be the children of
the Capitol, and Catnus is now set to not assassinate,

(08:21):
but to execute President Snow because this is the new regime.
Meet the new boss, right, that's the new boss. But
she wants the hunger games back. And now it proceeds a.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
Be as true as your heart is, yes.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
And that echoes, may the odds be ever in your favor.
And she aims your arrow straight at President Snow. He's
known his whole life has to come. He drunk poison
to prevent himself from being poisonable smug. It's as if
he knows what's coming. And at the and now he
begins to smirk, great actor, the late Ronald Sutherland, and

(09:01):
boom up there she kills President Coin straight with the
heart shots. And her aim was as true as her hearts.
And President Snow, already dying from years of consuming poison,
is laughing with blood coming out of his mouth. Catnus
now wants the hero being taken away. Now, it's not

(09:24):
about assassination culture. That's not what I'm calling for. God
forbid we regress further into assassination culture. But what did
she see? She saw that the new boss is the
same as the old boss. And if you're described this
the way we should describe things, which is from a
godly perspective, she said, well, the sin problem still exists.

(09:47):
President Coin, who at one time was truly a rebel leader. Truly,
she fought with the people. Truly, she wore the clothes
they wore. Truly, she slept in the in the rubble
they slept in. Truly she was that way. And then
bit by bit they started to bring some people in
from the regime. One of the game makers came over.

(10:07):
He'd been a game maker for President Snow when he
came over, and yeah, he helped get Catnus out, he
helped rescue her. But then he started to turn President
Coin into a President Snow with fancy propo videos and
staged videos, and new haircuts and new styling and a
new place for her to sleep in a new set

(10:29):
of speech writers. She became the old Boss. Does this
sound familiar. One of the reasons the world hates Donald
Trump is he is not the old Boss. Now, you
don't have to like him. You can think that the
construction project is a horrible, horrible thing to do right

(10:51):
now with the federal government shutdown. It just gives the
Democrats all sorts of AMMO, and I would reply that,
you know what, they're out of the ability to have
people new people hate Trump. That's bottomed out. You're not
going to drive any more. Hatred to mention the fact
that it's absurd that presidents have done this forever. But
President Trump was not the new boss. He made that

(11:13):
very clear by the way he spoke are the things
he was willing to talk about. He made it clear
to shiny shoed Republicans when he came down the escalator
and said, I'm going to build a wall. It's going
to be the most beautiful wall. Because everybody knew that
was a third rail. You don't talk about walls because
the CEO Roundtable doesn't want to stop illegal immigration, because
the United States Chamber of Congress and Commerce in DC

(11:35):
doesn't want to stop illegal immigration. No one actually wanted
to stop it is going to quietly let it go on.
And so President Trump comes from outside as a president
coin but not yet of the machine. Now is President
Trump becoming of the machine? Sure in many ways he is.

(11:56):
He's best buds with Pfizer, and I know RFK Junior
is doing what he can do. It's best buds there.
There's not a stop to the war in eukrate. Now
we look like we're teaming up or getting ready to
go to war in Venezuela. And maybe we should. But
President Trump too many many euyes and to many in
many many ways is still an outsider. But when you

(12:18):
compare the Hunger Games to the Democrat Party, it becomes
so very clear. The Democrats are supposed to be the
party of the people, et cetera. And here's Gavin Newsome
talking with the late Charlie Kirk and they're talking here
about something that you might remember seeing video footage of.

(12:39):
And it was that dinner, that that infamous dinner at
the French launder fact. We'll run this in a second.
We'll run this in a second. When they came out
of the world of warfare, this is Catnus in her team.
They had the images of warfare in their mind. They
had trouble separating warfare from reality because it was a
massive sie of for the Hunger Games. Now there's people

(12:59):
who come back from war and they've struggled with that.
Some people come back with a mission. The mission of
Bone Frog Coffee was actually born during gun battles in
the Middle East. This is actually where this came about.
So the genesis story of this coffee company is Tim Krukshank,
the founder and CEO, was in the Middle East thinking
about man what am I to do when I get home?
And it was it was just staying up. I mean,

(13:21):
he was a medic attached to the team's three deployments,
no sleep for days, four or five days at a time,
sometimes on ops. And what keeps them going well, coffee
and love of their brothers, God, country team, all that
keeps them going there, it was it comes back. He's
going to start a coffee company, and he did, and
it's called bone Frog Coffee, and it is coffee made

(13:42):
through the mentorship and sometimes directly by the hands of
a coffee legend named Dave Stewart, the guy who started
Seattle's Best Coffee. And you've been hearing me talk about
the caffeinated coffee I have not mentioned for a little
while is Zenfrog. Zen Frog is a delicious roast, but
it is decaffeinated. So if you're one of those weird
who drinks decaffe into coffee and you're part Communist, this

(14:03):
is a way to do it. It's zen Frog. And
on the other hand of this, if you're a normal,
red blooded American and you love yourself some caffeine, then
go get the door Kicker Blend. And that is for
the guys who are the breachers who go kick in
the doors. It's a light roast, but it's highly caffeinated.
Either way, go subscribe to the coffee. It's Bonefrog Coffee

Coffee dot com slash Todd. So Gavin Newsom sat down
with Charlie Kirk and the late Charlie Kirk asked him
about the French laundry incidents and to bring this back
to the Hunger Games, the world was shut down because

(14:46):
the bosses in DC said shut it down. The bosses
and Sacramento said shut it down. Gavin Newsom is the
same as the former dictator of Washington State, Jay Insley,
who's the same as the dictator Villinois JB. Pittsker All
the same. So here's the late Charlie Kirk asking this
question about Gavin Newsom and the French laundry and staff.

(15:06):
About your wining and dining at French laundry. Yes, I
was talking about the importance of of of never. Well,
I can't help you with the reserve.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
I've been very nice.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
By the way. We couldn't have this conversation. With that conversation.
Dumbest bonehead moved my life. Okay, own it, move on,
grow up? And I'm is that you talking to you?

Speaker 7 (15:29):
I'd be talking to myself.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
I'm just looking. I'm staring. I'm looking right at you
in the eyes as I say that, just to get
your reaction, that said we So that was the dumbest
bonehead move of his life. You think he didn't repeat it.
California is in a structural deficit. California has welcomed cartel

(15:50):
members to destabilize.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
There are politicians we know are getting paid off. We've
found some of them. There are sheriffs and judges who
got paid off. We found some of them still to
this day. Gang and gangdess in areas that Compton's south
central LA are some of the highest in the country.
And Gavin neussm is still going to the French laundries.

(16:16):
Gavin Neussom is still untouched by this, just like the
people in the capitol on the Hunger Games. This book
was prescient it predicted an outcome in American society. Here's
another example. This is during the time of Jay Insley
in the separate country of Washington State. He's a carbon
copy of Gavinussom, not as rich and frankly not as smart.

(16:38):
He's stupid, but policy wise, he's run by the same people.
And during the COVID era, the end of it, and
after the election. This is Komo News reporting on something
that they did across the country, an active theater, just
like so much of the Hunger Games was theater.

Speaker 7 (16:56):
The public is locked out of the Capitol building despite
protesters complaining about all the proceedings moving online.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
People have shared repeatedly in our districts and throughout the
state the concern of not being able to fully participate
in their government.

Speaker 7 (17:11):
Protesters want direct access so lawmakers can see the very
people their decisions impact. What would you say to the
people that say virtual is not the same as actual
and the voters are being given a disservice here.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
Well, it's funny is that you're right.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Virtual is not the same as actual, and actually I
think it's.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
Better democratic leaders. It takes time to travel in the
Olympia for just a few minutes of testimony, and people
could have more access by making the whole process available remotely.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Now here's some of the subtexts to this. You'll notice,
if you're looking at the video that most these buildings
are mostly empty. Here's why Republican so called leaders agreed
to Democrat demands to limit the number of legislators who
could be in the building. So at a friend of

(18:01):
mine who was serving the legislature at the time, Jesse Young.
He was not allowed to be there to represent his
constituents and guests. Who was there the shiny shoed Republicans
who wanted to do business with the Democrats, and the
Democrats who wanted to do business with the Republicans, the
far left, hardcore leftists. So when Jesse wanted to object,

(18:24):
he couldn't. He was unmute. He couldn't object. They muted
a zoom. The comparison to the Hunger Games is so
stark because Jesse had shown himself to be someone from
the districts. He wasn't the creation of the capital because

(18:49):
the curation of the Capitol were there behind the fences.
And they did this to true conservatives and populist politicians
and officeholders the board, and Republicans agreed to it because
they're animals of the capital. One more example here, do
you think JB. Pritzker is a very very brilliant man.

(19:11):
I mean he's scheming, he's duplicitous, he's a liar. He's
from one of the most poisonous and evil political families
in recent history, a family that moved their money out
of the money that they inherited through hotel wealth into
surgical supplies and pharmaceuticals, just at the same time as

(19:32):
they were. One of the Pritzker family members, a guy
who pretends to be a woman was at the human
rights campaign in San Francisco, simply an extension of the capital,
just the capital and a different location, busily transing kids
and spending a billion dollars or so to convince state
government's human rights commissions to trans kids.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
So JB.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Pritzker is evil and scheming. But do you think that
he's a guy who could sit down in life Las
Vegas and win one point five million dollars? Not not
accident least there's slots, not not through let's say roulette,
just striking its striking it rich, but poker really.

Speaker 8 (20:11):
Obviously and I've explained this, or at least we did
in a statement. You know that I went on vacation
with my wife with some friends. I was incredibly lucky
you have to be to end up ahead, frankly, going
to a casino anywhere. It was in Las Vegas.

Speaker 6 (20:28):
Uh and uh.

Speaker 8 (20:31):
I like to play cards, and so you know that
I founded a charitable poker match here in Chicago called
the Chicago Poker Challenge that raises millions has raised millions
of dollars for the Holocaust Museum here and particularly to
stand up for civil rights. That's much of what the
Holocaust munit civil rights. And so anyway, that's that's all

(20:55):
I can say about I mean, I had had fun
doing it. I encourage people to come to the state
of Illinois and gambling our casinos here.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, but I did mine in Vegas. Why Cash Patel?
FBI Director Patel has announced individuals such as Chauncey Billups,
Damon Jones, Terry Roser were taken into custody today former
current NBA players and coaches. And this is an illegal
gammering operation in sports, ringing operation that spanned the course
of years. They had X ray tables to read the

(21:27):
bottoms of cards. They had special contact lenses to read
pre marked cards, and they had other devices for cheating. Now,
I don't know that JB. Pritzker cheated, but I don't
think that JB. Pritzker is smart enough to play in
an elite poker game. And you have to be pretty

(21:47):
elite to walk out of their one point five million dollars.
But then again, in the world of the Capitol in
the Hunger Games, no one in the district really has food.
Their kids can't afford place to live, their kids can't
affer first and last month deposit on an apartment in
the districts. But in Washington, DC, Chelsea Clinton's first job

(22:12):
out of college paid her close to a million a year.
She produced one program, one for a so called news entity,
the Obama Kids, right out of private school, right into
trust funds, worth ten twenty million bucks. The Hunger Games

(22:33):
predicted the outcome of the human sin problems of coveting,
lording power over others, lying, seeking to be your own gods,
ignoring what you must do for the least of these.
It predicted all of these things in an otherwise political realm.
That's movie number one that I think explains things to

(22:55):
a tea right here in this modern world, we'll get
R two movie number two here at a second. You're
speaking of money and the money that can be earned.
There was a guy who was his name was Peter
Weis back very good talk show hosts back in the day.
Forgive him. Well, he's died and he was Canadian, so
don't hold that against him. He didn't know the Lord,

(23:18):
which is very sad. But he used to refer to
people's retirement monies as their life's energy. And if you
think about it in a worldly sense, it is our
life's energy in heaven. It's trash, but you need it now,
and you've worked for it now, and it's in an
account now. And we are in the probably most volatile
time in the history of the American economy. All the

(23:41):
changes that have come before automobiles and what it did
to the buggies and in the PC and what it
did to the printing industry and to travel agents is
going to be dwarfed by AI, dwarfed within a year
or two by AI. And then there's the new digital
coin every day, seemingly every single day. Then there's the
two big to fail digital coin roll up that President

(24:02):
Trump created and hey, look at that, his son in
law's coin is in that. It's a very very volatile time.
So if you're counting on retirement and it's locked and
you're gonna do it, what happens if Math comes back
and looks at the American economy and says this is
all cocaine and sugar eyes. What happens if Math makes
a comeback. Here's my suggestion for you. Go take me

(24:25):
up on the free obligation offer to have a good,
intense conversation with Zach Abraham, Chief investment Officer Bulwarck Capitol Measurement.
He's not kidding about these conversations. He wants to give

Like each other?

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Because as a fiduciary, he has to put your financial
interest above his, which means he's going to want to
visit with you from time to time. And then that's
the first call. Second call is you talking about retirement,
what you need to have, what you're hoping to have,
what you think you're going to have, and giving him
permission to look through your finances and he'll do that.
His team will analyze it, call number three or meeting

(25:02):
in person video, whatever you want is REZAC tells you
what they found. They may come back and say, you

(25:42):
Truck twenty five, that'sh two nine eight. This was a big,
big money maker back in the day. And again, hey wow,
Donald Sutherlands and this as well, that's crazy. It didn't
realize that well I realized it, but I guess I
just didn't notice. So this is Donald Sutherland in a
movie called the invasion of the body Snatchers, and the

(26:04):
plot is this, well it's kind of explained in the trailer,
but we're not running the trailer. But the plot is
some aliens on a distant planet, their planets dying, and
they need a new home, so they ship themselves here
as basically looks like plants, and they're these big pods
and it looks like these, oh hey, look, you know,

(26:26):
free human sized cucumber. And they plant themselves in the
woods and they grow, but each of them is a
replacement for a living person. So then they come along
and they off the living person, and then the pod
person replaces them. And it's clearly, you know, a commentary
on society of where have people's heart's gone. It's like

(26:48):
almost as if their hearts have grown cold, And the
Bible said the hearts of many will grow cold. People
will turn from sound teaching and seek out false teachers
who give their itching ears things they want to hear.
And if you think about again the COVID era, where

(27:09):
friends of yours were saying things like I'm sorry, we
can't help her to at the house, if you're not vaccinated,
or if you think about the trans lies, if your parents.
Who's ever had a kid who went through the transdulusion?
And you had family members say, why aren't you celebrating this?
This is brave and stunning. What's wrong with you? I'm

(27:31):
embarrassed for you? Or worse has happened to a friend
of mine? Have the family member a friend of mine's
sister kidnapped her trans identifying daughter and hid her and
tried to medically emancipate her. And my friends asking who

(27:54):
is this woman? Or mothers and grandmothers who did this
during that era or during the Trump era. I don't
know if you've lost friends or family.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
I have.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
I hope it's temporary because I am now a homophobic,
white supremacist racist who hates all the brown people because
I agree with President Trump's policies far more than the
people who ran Joe Biden's policies. And sometimes I think
what happened to people? So the invasion of the body

(28:26):
Snatch is this is at the end of the movie,
and again it's Donald Sutherlands and man, he's made it.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Right.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
He's one of the survivors, right, well?

Speaker 7 (28:39):
Is he?

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Though?

Speaker 1 (28:40):
Is he one of the survivors? Because when the aliens
spot a human. They have a very distinct reaction on
a suddenly walking up into the capital and this is
not in DC. I forget where this is, but it's
a state capital somewhere, and there is his love interest

(29:00):
and they've both survived. Well, it is DC. They both survived,
and Donald's it's great ending, great ending. And hey, even

(29:24):
though we gave away the ending of the film, if
you've not seen it, go watch it. It's really well done.
I remember the first time I saw that was when
it got onto TV and we sat down stairs in
my friend Mike's house in the basement, and I was
so wigged. I went home like, Mom, are you sure
your mom? You're not a pod person. Now where this

(29:46):
is being seen, in my opinion, most vividly is in
the hollowing out of institutions that and you know, President
Trump's getting criticized for now it's the East Room is
going to have to be rebuilt to do it right,
and he's so hollowing out the East Wing. But the
hollowing out of institutions and putting in place people like
Mayor Pete. Mayor Pete was a bad, ill respected small

(30:12):
town mayor who did a poor job and he's the
same sex attracted dude. Therefore he's the Secretary of transportation.
An utter hollowing out of an institution, and we have
an infrastructure, and that I states, it's very important. It's
how we eat, it's how we transport goods, it's how
people get to work, et ceteras, all those things. It

(30:35):
affects our energy grid, it affects people's lives and small
town mayor same sex attracted dude. Therefore he gets to
be the Secretary of education. Of course he is. Why
would our secretary transportationion, Why wouldn't you the hollowing out
of institutions, I mean, most vibrantly. You can think of
the White House and figure had Biden that everybody knew

(30:58):
was demented. And so now we have to ask, We
had to ask for four years, who is actually running things?
The hollowing out of institutions, schools. There was a time
when people went to work in schools to teach, and
they kept their politics at home. They kept their sexuality
at home. But I know, I know everybody knew they
were married. But that's not bringing your sexuality. It's just

(31:21):
that we're head enormative species. So most people are married
or heteronormative, and now these hallowed out institutions. I just
saw this video the other day of a man dressed
like a woman who does a pretty good job with
the filters and all that, of looking like a woman
doing a sexually provocative dance in the classroom in which

(31:42):
he teaches, where he teaches five year olds. And it's
not just twerking, et cetera. It's touching down there with
clothes on, but it's overtly a sex dance. So it's
a halo itout institution. Who are these pod people? What
happened to teachers who really care about kids? But you

(32:02):
know where it is the most most frightening to me
and the most clear that this has happened. It's in
the churches. It's in the church where Satan is creating
these fake Christian churches, and in these fake churches so
many times you've been forced to pay for these fake
Christian churches. And it's like the pod people ended. They

(32:26):
replace good decent pastors who obey the word of God,
who abide with God. They have accepted Jesus Christ, both
in their hearts after they're repented their sins, accepted Jesus
Christ in their hearts, accepted him verbally, spoke, spoke with
their mouths that He's their savior. Do everything they can
to abide. And look, pastors are going to fall. They're human.
There's going to be these cases. But we're not talking

(32:47):
about people who fall. We're talking about people who aren't
really pastors. They just put on the pastor's skin suit
and they do things like this. And Alex put this
together some of the best of stuff that we've gotten
from Protestia dot com and will preach at clipstv dot com.

Speaker 5 (33:02):
You have to take up the work of racial justice.
Racism did not start in our lifetimes, but racism can
end in our lifetime, but only if you ask, and
I ask, what am I gonna do about it? And
while it is still bothering, you write down what you're

(33:24):
gonna do on a note card and tape that card
on the mirror you see every morning when you get up,
and every night before you go to bed, and each
night ask was I true to the calling?

Speaker 1 (33:35):
The calling George Floyds? What can I do to This
is a George Floyd memorial service. Reverend Steve Wills with
a picture of George Floyd with a halo above his head.
George Floyd's who held a loaded gun to the belly
of a pregnant woman. And this reverend is preaching with
Floyd's as an angel behind him, right next to the

(33:57):
crossing protect.

Speaker 5 (33:58):
Bring God's Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven.

Speaker 9 (34:01):
Mister Kirk said for years that sometimes they're in schools.
There has to be some lives sacrificed to protect the
Second Amendment.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Yeah, he didn't say that. I'm not making it up,
you are.

Speaker 9 (34:17):
Some lives have to be taken to protect the Second Amendment.
Gotta be careful of the positions you take.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Ooh, he deserved might just come back and take you.
See this is a See he's wearing the skin suit
and he's even got the priests caller in the long robe.
That means he's a man of God, not.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
Applauding his death. And I will say to you, beloved,
no one likes violence, but sometimes violence is necessary when
Elon musk forces So.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
This is the church as well the Cross of Christ Pine.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
When Elon Musk way into the United States Treasury and
threatens to steal your personal information and your Social Security check,
there is the possibility of violence. Sometimes the devil west
past so ugly that you have no other choice but
to get violent.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
That's what Jesus said. If a guy comes in and
monitors the books to find and waste fraud, abuse, Jesus said,
take him out. Oh fine.

Speaker 10 (35:16):
To be clear, I don't consider the Gospels to be
transcribed factual conversation.

Speaker 11 (35:21):
But we went to Kansas City over the summer to
get Clementine some playtime with her cousins, and a nephew
of mine who has come out as trans was raving
about it as this incredible movie that was meaningful to
him as a film about self acceptance.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
So he meets her, and so we decided that we
would watch it, and when we did, we were riveted.
It is so good. The characters, the music.

Speaker 11 (35:42):
The themes, the message.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
It's all a K pop guy.

Speaker 11 (35:44):
And when you're a preacher, you're always watching everything through
the lens of what would make a good sermon. And
right in the middle of it, Jen and I turned
to each other and we said, this will.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Breathe K pop.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
This a breach, baby, So they're not screaming like Donald Suthern.
It's freaky. It's worse because some people believe that has
something to do with the word of God. It doesn't
get more hauled out and invasion the body snatchers, like

(36:19):
than having a man who is very, very evidently absolutely
demented and we're told to believe this is the president
of the United State.

Speaker 12 (36:29):
You're the great artists of our time, representing the groundbreaking
legacy of hip hop in America.

Speaker 10 (36:34):
L J.

Speaker 6 (36:35):
Cool J.

Speaker 12 (36:40):
You could say, even this harder than getting a ticket
to the Renaissance Tour or or Reprittaness tour. She's down in.
It's kind of warm in Brazil right now. More than
the half woman of my cabinet, more than more than
half the people in my cabinet, more than half of
the women on my administration are women.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Sixteen half the women are women. Now that's actually true.
Half the women are women.

Speaker 12 (37:04):
Sixty eight times more than sixty eight out.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
And the bicycle fall, the vibrants, old man who cannot
stand up. That's so utterly sad. Oh, I'm just dancing.

Speaker 12 (37:18):
We have fewer democracies in the world today than we
did fifteen years ago, scream Joe.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
Fewer there you go, not more fewer. Yeah, I wrote
the bill.

Speaker 12 (37:30):
On the Environment on the environment, on the environment one
point two billion. So you go ahead and your stack
spaghetti sauce at a store, and in a supermarket, you
control the guy. The woman who runs the run brings
out the carts on on a forklift.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
What happened? They look at So I learned about roaches.

Speaker 7 (37:52):
I learned about kids jumping on my lap, and.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
I love kids jumping on my lap. We have this
notion that somehow so the whole it out institution of
the White House with a pod person there acting the
role of president takes me back to Invasion Device Snatchers Prescient.
We're doing four movies. There's two to go in case

(38:17):
you're counting along at home. One of them. I didn't
know there was a remake. I didn't know that because
Alice grabbed this. I thought I was going to see
the old one. I'll show you this in a second.
There is no easy way to put this. It's always
hard to say goodbye to a friend. And we are
next year, sometime probably April to August, going to be

(38:37):
saying goodbye to John who runs Alan Soaps. And this
was born out of a labor of love. I wish
I could tell you the campaigns on which John worked
as a digital marketer. I guarantee you you would recognize
the companies. One of them was so good it actually
put that company into the position to be able to
purchase Super Bowl ads based upon on what John did

(39:00):
in digital marketing. It was that successful. And they had
one son, he and his wife, and he's neurotypical. He's
in the construction business, super successful. And then they had
two more sons, beginning with Alan, and in the womb,
doctors said, so called doctors, Hey, lets let us unlive
the baby for you, because he's never going to be normally.

(39:21):
They're gonna have quality of life. It's gonna have neurological
issues and muscular skelter issues. And they said, no, this
is our son, are you insane? No, well, he's not
gonna have quality of life. Well he does. His name
is Alan, he's fourteen. Yep, he's been through eighteen operations
and sure enough, he's effectively nonverbal, and he invents amazing
fragrances of soap from his memory, and he can talk

(39:44):
a little bit through an iPad. His mom can understand
him really well in that way. So he doesn't make
the soap, but he works every single day, quality control, packaging,
et cetera. So who does make the soap. It's a
family and their labor of love is soap. This is
what they do. They've done it for three generations, all
the way from the Old World now to the Midwest
United States of America. As a consequence of that, there's

(40:06):
no chemicals. They're not gonna have chemicals in their home shop,
and all the soap is all natural as gentle for
your bodies. You can be. Alan's brother, Ian now works there.
He's finally old enough to do that. He's also on
the autism spectrum. And right now we're in a very
very difficult process or they are, of transferring the company
into John's wife's hands so she can run it. John

(40:26):
is teaching her how to do this because he's preparing
to go to the Lord Jesus. Now that's a sob
story of sorts, except that's not how John sees it.
He's not afraid. He just wants to spend as much
time as his family as he can. This is a
quality soap thing. This is a reason for you to
try the world's best soap to find out if I'm right,
If it's the world best soap. If I'm not, never
buy it again. If I am, subscribe, go to alansoaps

(40:49):
dot com slash todd. When you upgrade to a subscription,
you help us with this transition so we can keep
Allan's running, keep Ian and Allen working there, keep reducing
the World's Best Soap, and hopefully once again go back
to hiring more people who are impacted by autism and
down center. It's alanssoap dot com slash todd. Remember the
Brave New World Man. I read the book. What a brilliant,

(41:12):
brilliant book. So it describes a world of people who
are drugged up, sext up, where babies are born in
pods and raised in pods, and they divorced the sex
act from the consequence of the sex act, which is pregnancy,
and you're encouraged to have sex with as many people

(41:33):
as you can. It's a pleasure based society and to
keep everybody super happy, there's this wonderful, wonderful substance that
they distribute to people and everybody's expected to take it
multiple times per day, but not everybody wants to play along.
I didn't know about the remake. This comes from Paramount peacock.
So there she is eating a pill, a peacock original.

(41:58):
Everyone's happy, happy, there they are dropping the pill. Everybody's
except except for people who won't play along. I've always
wanted that for you. So this guy is the savage,
and he's now brought into kind of a version of

(42:18):
the Capitol Brace on the ground baking novel wonderful. And
John's the savage. He just they get him on the
soma and look, John's happy, he's taking the soma. So
the story is in the original telling that John is
a savage who is brought into the worlds of the

(42:40):
enlightened people who use pharma to be happy, and John
experiments with that world, is given the soma and told
he can be happy. He sees the pods of babies
and wait where I come from? Women go through birth?

Speaker 6 (42:54):
And what.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
Yeah, babies come out of women? Oh gross, gross, so disgusting.
Why would you want that? Well, and then the mother breastfeeds.
Oh why would anyone ever do that to themselves? So
the people in the Brave New worlds aren't necessarily happy
because they can't be sad. In other words, they become

(43:21):
numb inhuman. They've taken the birth process and made it
something gross like abortionists. Now again, I'll always say this
because I have friends who had to use IVF to
have kids. Well, the first kid was they did not
use IVF, the second they had to his sperm, her egg.

(43:43):
The mechanization of IVF, people buying, purchasing, I'm not lying.
They purchased twenty or thirty babies in some cases in
this ufer country, Washington, you can do that. There's cases
where men have purchased seven babies for expressly evil uses.
And what it's not necessarily test tube, it's not the
pod thing, but it's very close. And do I really

(44:05):
need to draw the connection to soma or could we
just play an antidepressiont ad that's not even a really
well done one. So let's play this.

Speaker 6 (44:15):
Do you feel alone? Do you feel like everyone is
far away from you? You could be depressed, could be
ask your dark Maybe you're just sad? All knew a.

Speaker 10 (44:31):
Fixer because feeling alone might not be normal. The fixer,
the feel better.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
Solution, tasty, a fixer. In the Brave New Worlds, John
the Savage escapes and maybe he takes someone with him.
You should you should read the book. You should watch
your original film and find out, because maybe he takes
someone with them, and maybe that someone goes to the

(45:05):
savage worlds where there is no Soma and where sometimes
people don't have food, and sometimes they do and they
work with their hands and babies come out of women's bodies,
or maybe he doesn't, maybe goes back on his own.
Maybe they take a helicopter out to unlive them because
he escaped and he's now going back to Savage Land
to tell them the secrets of Soma Land, Brave New World.

(45:29):
There are those of us who are not going to
do pharma. There are those of us who are going
to do everything we can to tap into the one
true happiness, and this is being attached to the vine
of Christ. We're going to recognize the fact that we
were given life, liberty, the rights to right, life, liberty,
and pursuit of happiness in the garden of Eden. That
a constitution just simply recognizes that the Bill of rights

(45:51):
this as examples of things the state cannot do to
you because we were made by God. There's some of
us who are going to recognize that if you are
never truly sad, you're never truly happy. Some of us
who recognize that the same God who's the god of
the mountaintop experiences is the same God of the valley experiences.
The God who walks with us through challenges horrible seasons

(46:14):
in life, the God who's there as we spend time
in sinful deserts and he's saying, don't do it, come out,
and the Holy spirit's in there. If we've accepted Jesus
convicting has come out of the desert. But don't numb
yourself with pretend happiness and alcohol, drugs, sex addiction. That's
the story of the Brave New World. I think that

(46:35):
nails today's society. Now, all of this is simply playing around.
Unless we're eternal beings, all of this is just fun
thinking about movies. Unless we're eternal beings. Hollywood is incredibly powerful.
They have the powerful the power to shape cultures. And

(46:56):
Andrew Breitbart reminded us that is downstream of culture, and
culture is downstream of God. Everything is downstream of God.
And if we're not eternal beings, if we die, and
that's it, we're rot in the ground. We never know
a thing again because we no longer exist. And hey,
do all the things, But if we're eternal beings. This

(47:18):
power of Hollywood to have us take a look anew
at the world that we live in. That power is
a unique power and something that we should understand can
be uniquely powerful because the fact is Jesus Christ is
coming back. The fact is every knee will bow and
every tongue will confess. The fact is most of Hollywood
does not want us to repent of our sins. They

(47:43):
want us to glorify our sins, to fetishize our sins,
to monetize our sins, or let them monetize it. That's
what most of Hollywood wants. Mel Gibson made a movie
of eternal value, and that is The Passion of the Christ.
So much of the movie is bloody and hard to watch,

(48:04):
and it's an air make. And then there is the
ending scene of the Passion of the Christ and a
huge rock rolling away from a tomb and the light
coming into the tune. Light shines the darkness. The darkness
has not overcome it. As the camera pans over as
the shadow of the rock moves, it's going to come

(48:27):
upon something that shouldn't be moving, and yet somehow it is.
The rock rolls open and we look down upon a
barrel cloth. For a second. The barrel cloth had a
body in it and now does not deflates magically, as

(48:51):
if the body has simply gone through the material, which
is what the shroud of current seems to indicate. And
there's Jim disl As Jesus Christ now risen, still scarred,
but peaceful, and he looks up to regard his Father,
who is in heaven, no doubt, giving thanks, because Jesus

(49:13):
was always giving thanks. So this part of the journey
is over. He'll go visit the apostles. He'll talk with
them about what they're to do. And one of the
last acts of Jesus Christ, and there's the scar in
his hands. One of the last acts of Jesus Christ
is to say this, all power on heaven and earth

(49:34):
has been granted unto me. Therefore go and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to
obey all I've commanded, or I will be with you always,
even to the end of the age. Everything we've talked
about is simply just fun playing around talking about movies

(49:56):
and less movies like this remind us of it. Value.
The changes we make to ourselves through the media, we consume,
the drugs we consume, and how we treat one another
are changes. It can determine how we spend eternity. Think
about eternity. It's a super long time. This is the

(50:20):
Todd Hermit Show. Please go, be well, be strong, be kind,
and if you haven't done it, make a decision today
to repent of your sins. Accept the Lord Jesus Christ
with your heart, speak it with your mouth, and walk
in the light of Christ. And as for me, I
get to have a date night with my beloved wife,
