Giganic government sucks. Suit of happinessradio is deluxe. Liberty and freedom will
make you smile. Of a suitof happing us on your radio to Hel's
just as cheezburg is Libity fries at. Georgia now has the country's largest nuclear

(00:30):
power plant, but the biggest producerof toxic waste in the state is still
Tyler Perry's movie studio. Hi,I'm Kenny, and thank you for turning
your radio on. It's three pmalready. Wow, I got the last
two or three hours of radio justflew by. But now you're here with
me. I'm Kenny. It's greatto be with you. If you ever
miss a minute of the show,don't forget. There's a podcast. It's

(00:51):
easy to subscribe to it. Itdoesn't cost a nickel, doesn't even cost
a penny. Doesn't cost a paso. Okay, maybe a peso, No,
not even a peso. A bigshow today, Jim Nell's is going
to be stopping by in a littlebit. He's a columnist for the Blaze
Media, you know, Glenn Beck'scompany, and he's been around for a
while so he's seen some of theseoutrageous political protests on college campuses. Before.

(01:12):
He's got a thing or two tosay about how the college administrators are
basically committing suicide right now by allowingthis to happen. Now, for the
record, for the most part,they're not allowing it. I mean,
okay, they are allowing it tohappen, but some of them seem to
be trying to stop it. NorthwesternUniversity in the north suburbs of Chicago up
there, they're not stopping it.They actually said they'll bend the need of

(01:34):
the rage mob. They're adhering totheir demands. What are their demands exactly?
Turns out free college tuition for MiddleEastern kids. Oh well, what
does that have to do with anyYeah, I know it's stupid, right.
Most of these kids protesting don't knowwhat they're protesting, They don't know
why they're protesting. You've gay liberalpolitical activists out on these college campuses defending

(01:57):
the rights of Palestinians with the Palestiniansdefend their rights. Absolutely not. We're
not going to talk about this thewhole show, but we're certainly going to
talk about it. I wonder ifthis what I wonder is this, how
long can this go on? For? Yesterday the spokesperson for the Islamic extremists
at Columbia University stood in front ofa podium, next to a bunch of

(02:21):
next to a gay man in acrop top and a hamascar if I kid
you not, And she said,we demand you deliver food to us.
And then they said, well why, and they said, well, we,
for one thing, we have mealplans for your cafeteria. And then
they said, is anyone stopping youfrom going to the cafeteria And she said
no, but it could happen tobe obligated to provide food to people who've

(02:45):
taken over a building. Well,first of all, we're saying that they're
obligated to provide food to students whopay for a meal plan here. Okay,
you mentioned that there was a requestedthat food and water be brought in,
unless I missed to allow it tobe brought in. I mean,
well, I guess it's ultimately aquestion of what kind of community and obligation
Columbia feels it has to its students. Do you want students to die of

(03:07):
dehydration and starvation or get severely ill, even if they disagree with you.
If the answer is no, thenyou should allow basic I mean, it's
crazy to say because we're on anivy leage campus, but this is like
basic humanitarian aid we're asking for,Like could people please to have a glass
of water? Like like like youunderstand they of running water in the building

(03:27):
they illegally occupied yesterday before they allgot arrested. They had water the whole
time. They could leave any timethey wanted and get food. This woman
walked out to a podium to givea statement to a press pool. None
of them are being prevented from gettingfood or water. At least they certainly
weren't. But they didn't put themselvesin that very deliberately, in that situation,

(03:50):
within that position. So it seemslike you're sort of saying they put
themselves in this position deliberately. That'swhat he's asking. Now, would you
please bring us some food? Now? Bring us food. Nobody's asked them
to bring anything. Every we're askingthem to not violently stop us from bringing
in basic humanitarian aid. Is anybodyis anybody trying to stop you from We
are looking for a commitment from themthat they will not stop it by so

(04:13):
they're not stopping well, I don'tI'm not I don't know to what extent
it has been attempted. But we'relooking for a commitment. We're looking for
a commitment that you won't stop usfrom going to get food. Has anybody
stopped yourself? No? No,but like they could. Yesterday, Lawrence
Jones, news reporter for Fox News, He's the guy, He's the black,
the young cool black guy on Foxand Friends, got to interview one

(04:35):
of these protesters in New York Cityand he asked them the questions you and
I would have asked. Do youfeel like it was right to hold three
of the janitor workers hostage withinside ofthe building. I think that's a really
false narrative. That's what they thejanitors are saying that they weren't allowed to
leave. I think that that's areally false narrative. Even if the janitors

(04:56):
are saying that, you're saying thatthat's not true. I think that it's
a false narrative that the students tookanyone hostage. How do you feel about
some of the Jewish students saying thatthey don't feel safe here on campus.
I think that this is also areally false narrative that's being promoted. Do
you think October seventh and the attackthat happened is a false Do you believe

(05:16):
that some of the women were raped? Colly just came back, this is
what happened. Can you get outof my face? Please face. So
this is what you see at thesethese protests. Once you get into the
nitty gritty of what happened on Octoberthe seventh, the rape of women,
what's happening there? They they denywhat happened, as you know that it's
actually factual now that the janitorial workerswere blocked inside of the building. And

(05:42):
anytime you bring that up, theJewish calls, the Jewish people, the
kids that feel unsafe on campus,they deny the reality of the guys.
Yo. They put a Jewish girlin the hospital and you at UCLA,
they violently attack this poor young woman, beat the snot out of her,
and an angry mob came and respondis and all out. It's it's looking
an awful lot like post Rodney Kingout there at UCLA campus right now.

(06:06):
But as as violent pro terrorism riotersrek havoc on college campuses around the country,
Where's Joe Biden? Where is he? Townhall dot com just republished a
report to detail where exactly is ourcommander and thief. He has spent the
week dipping in and out of Delawarefor a series of campaign events. Here's

(06:27):
a report. In the afternoon,the President will depart the White House en
route to Wilmington. The President willthen participate in a campaign event. Afterwards,
the President will return to the WhiteHouse. In the afternoon, the
President will participate in a camp thatwas yesterday. Today he will participate in
a campaign reception in Washington, DC. I'm sorry forget about the fact that

(06:47):
he doesn't have time to go addressthe fact that there's riots happening all over
the country. The guy is campaigningin Washington, DC, one place where
he absolute he does not need tocampaign at. Then, it says afterwards,
the President and the First Lady willdepart the White House en route to
Wilmington. While Biden issued a statementof condemnation ahead of the Jewish American Heritage

(07:12):
Month, he's been missing from thescene as his press secretary fails to respond
to the ongoing situation. Kareem JeanPierre had this to say, as the
President or anyone from the White Housespoken to the university's leadership, is the
President satisfied with other Hendro in thesituation. So I will say this,
Look, and we've said this manytimes, this is nothing new. The

(07:33):
President has always been clear that whileAmericans have the right to peacefully protest,
that's something that we believe here inthis administration. He stands squarely, squarely
against any any rhetoric, violent rhetoric, any hate, hate threats, and
physical intimidation and hate speech. Obviouslywe believe and we have said, okay,

(07:56):
but that's what's happening. They're throwingfeces at cops and violently attacking Wish
kids on campus. Students are beingtargeted, they're being prevented from going to
class, and Joe Biden is outcampaigning in front of government workers in Washington,
d C. I think I thinkof a pretty good idea as to
where this problem began. It isso star cousin right here. It's ha

(08:18):
worked to host the show with acouple of knucklehears. Can Western Gia.
Remember a while back we took alook at who was funding climate change activism
around the United States, not whoyou'd think it would be, a lot
of the activism against the oil andgas industry, against the energy industry here

(08:41):
in the good old us of Awas actually being funded by foreign petro states
Russia, for example, Middle EasternSaudy oil money funds anti oil and gas
activism in the United States. Whywhy do you think that is? Why
would? I mean, it's nothard to answer the question. Why why

(09:01):
would a group of people that competewith us in a market encourage activists in
our country to outlaw the product thatthey're competing with us to go out and
acquire and sell. I mean,the answer is probably pretty obvious, isn't
it. Ted Cruz and Donald Trumpover the past twenty four hours have both

(09:22):
pointed out how a lot of theactivism happening on these campuses is surprisingly not
being funded by anti Zionists. They'rejust people that hate America. I mean,
they're not anti Zionists in the traditionalsense. Give an example, George
Soros happens to be a Jewish guy, and his organization is purportedly funding a

(09:43):
lot of these tents. You see, they've been giving tents to student activists
to go out and set up shop. Huh, that's weird. Why would
a Jewish guy be giving money toanti Jewish activists? Why would a Jewish
guy be giving out money to antiJewish activists. Daniel Turner from Power of
the Future, and how does thisremind you of the anti oil and gas
activism you and I have witnessed somuch over the past couple decades. It's

(10:07):
fomenting discord, right, It's it'sfunding agitators for the sole purpose of creating
disharmony, of creating chaos, offomenting anger violence if they can lead to
it. And it's they just needa cause. So if there happens to
be a George Floyd moment, wellthere's your cause. But before it was

(10:30):
George Floyd. I mean, it'salways climate change, because you can always
talk about climate change. But theyjust need a reason. Remember twenty twelve,
it would suddenly occupy Wall Street.Nothing triggered occupy Wall Street, right,
it just it just started because itwas paid for and because Mitt Romney
was running for president and they thoughthe was a Wall Street guy, so
they had to show how Wall Streetgreed was this huge problem. But it's

(10:52):
all fake, it's all it's allpaid for, it's all phony. And
there are people who like to protestas a job, right, And it's
the kid in your classroom when youwere a sophomore who would just throw things
at the teacher when she turned herback, or would just make fart noises.
And you know, after a while, it's like, why does that
kid act like that? It's becausethat's who he is. Like he likes

(11:16):
to create discord, he likes toruin things. You know, there are
people who have that tendency. Societynormally beats them out of it, or
the parents should. My parents certainlydid. But if you fund it,
these people now have a career,and that's where we are. Yeah,
it's a good point. You know. I was looking back on the Occupy
Wall Street protest of twenty eleven andtwenty twelve, and I remember Tom Morello,

(11:39):
the guitarist from Rage Against the Machine, who was out there in the
streets singing and playing protest songs.And then a short time later we found
out he was at a restaurant inSeattle complaining that they made him wait forty
five minutes for a table. Now, I know it doesn't seem like it
should matter, but it does,doesn't it. I mean, these people
are all a bunch of hipocras.Another one of these people a couple of

(12:01):
years later, and remember he wasall about get the vaccine or you shouldn't
be allowed to leave your house,like, well, there's the machine for
you, tom right. Rage againstthe machine became the biggest pro vax pro
masked sicko fans. So even therage against the machine is out is folk
is fake, it's foe, it'sit's just all a lie. It's all

(12:22):
a huge lie. Yeah. Anotherone of these people is Gigi Hadid and
Bella Hadid. I guess their dadis a big Palestinian activist, so but
you know, just by proxy therethey are as well. They published a
bunch of stuff online about the warin Israel and Palestine. Turnout it wasn't
real, right, it was likefootage from Syria and Yemen walked it back.

(12:45):
And now they have nothing to sayabout the riots on college campuses.
Hollywood is always there to make thingsworse, aren't they. They really are,
and they just like to capitalize onthese movements. Susan Sarandon's been there,
right A see, of course hasbeen there. But who hasn't been
there are big name democrats because theyare really in a pickle. Right,

(13:09):
if you're AOC, you can kindof get away with being a lunatic,
because that is your stick. Butwhat does Chuck Schumer do? Well,
he can't come out pro Israel,even though he is pro Israel, because
these young people are all a lotof them in his district and he needs
their votes and he doesn't want toupset this growing leftist cause, so they

(13:31):
just stay silent. Right, TheClintons are in a pickle. I think
Hillary actually has come out against theprotests, which is pretty surprising. But
you know, big name Democrats,where's Barack Obama? Heck, here's an
easier question for you, Kenny,where's Joe Biden? Right, where's the
president condemning this? And if theyask Karreem Jehan Pierre, of course you'll
say, we condemn all forms ofviolence and anti Semitism. But these folks,

(13:56):
they may not be Biden voters,but they're certainly not Trump voters.
Right, So this is the left. These are your people, and you
may disagree with them on this,but these are your people. You guys,
own it and embrace it and eatit. If the pandemic in twenty
twenty is what caused Trump to lose, you know, and I'm used putting
lows in quotations here, because Iget that not everybody agrees with the outcome

(14:18):
of that. I understand that.And are we seeing a similar thing now
with Joe? Is this the pendulumswinging back in the other direction. I
mean, these people out protesting,like you just said, they're not Trump
supporters. Yeah, I don't knowhow they keep this alive from so many
more months. But then again,I didn't think Occupy Wall Street would still
be going on by the election,and clearly did and we haven't even started

(14:41):
the summer. So I think thisis going to be, without a doubt,
a force to be reckoned with,and mostly because it is so well
funded. Right I as a NewYorker born and raised in New York City,
my whole family's still there. Imentioned that before. I can assure
you most New Yorkers don't have campingequipment in their house, let alone in
their room. Right. But suddenlyevery Columbia student happened to have a whole

(15:03):
suite of camping equipment that they wereable to bring to the law. Right.
Someone paid for that. Someone paidfor all of this trace the money,
and that money is not drying upanytime soon, And so I don't
think they're going to go away becausethey're so incredibly well funded. And they
also seize on the weakness of theadministration. Right, Russia and God's Russia

(15:28):
and Israel seized on the weakness ofBiden, and that's why they acted because
they know Biden is weak, Blinkenis weak. Lloyd Austin with his masks,
is not a very compelling Secretary ofDefense. Right. If you're afraid
to breathe, you don't really looklike you're a brave man. They sensed
on weakness and they went to war. Well, these young people since the
weakness of the Columbia president, theHarvard president, the NYU president, and

(15:54):
they're not going to give up becauseweakness is a very, very dangerous rain
for people in power. Brown Universityyesterday reached an agreement with the anti Israel
protesters on its Ivy League campus toend the encampment there and the demonstrators.
What they're demanding are things like freetuition for Palestinians. They want to hire
more Palestinian professors. Northwestern University upthere another it's not an Ivy League school,

(16:19):
but it's definitely lives right down thestreet from the Ivy League schools,
is a place where they've decided,Okay, Palestinian kids, you get free
college tuition. We'll give promotions andraises to all the Palestinian staff members.
I feel like by doing that,Daniel, they're just making this worse.
Absolutely, I mean, why don'twe start now? Every minority group is

(16:41):
going to start the same sort ofprotest until they get free tuition. Why
do Palestinians get to go to schoolfor free? And of course there's no
such thing as free as someone elseis going to be paying for it.
So it isn't an amazing how itall comes down to grievances. Race.
Grievance is right, and I don'teven know where where did this all start,

(17:03):
right, I understand that it beganwith with uh, you know,
October seventh and the battle in Gazaand in Israel's retaliate, Iran's retaliation on
Israel, But all of that somehowturned into the university administration is responsible.
All of a suddenly this turned tothese idiots should be preparing for graduation and
the end of the year, andinstead they're all busy on college campuses yelling

(17:27):
and screaming about free Palestine and freetuition for Palestinians. You know I wasn't
alive and I know you weren't either, in the riots of the late sixties
on college campuses, and I oftenremember reading about it wondering how the hell
did this happen. Well, nowwe're watching it happen in real time,

(17:48):
and if it is not shut down, another Kenth state is absolutely inevitable.
And I'm sure the audience knows whatKent State is. It was the shooting.
We always learned about it as howthese this rogue National Guard it's just
opened fired on students, And nowyou realize no, actually the students are
the ones who were the bad guys. I'm not saying anyone should get shot,

(18:08):
but when the students are throwing bottlesand breaking windows and setting fires,
bad stuff is going to result.And bad stuff is going to result if
this weakness continues on the part ofthe administration. Forgive me for indulging just
for a second here, but oneof the you asked, you asked how
this whole thing started, and Iknow the answer to that is the BDS

(18:29):
list, the Boycott Israel list.This has been around for a while.
They want Americans to boycott companies associatedwith Israel. Now I can't read the
whole list right now. We don'thave enough time, but I'll just skim
through it real quick. Daniel Cisco, Dell, General, Electric, Google,
that includes Android, Chrome, YouTube, Hewlett Packard, IBM, Intel,
Microsoft, Oracle, Apple, CocaCola, McDonald's, nest Lee,

(18:53):
Pepsi, Starbucks, Puma, Adidas, Amazon, Airbnb, eBay, Expedia,
Toyota. Do you understand how it'sa city bank like I can't JP,
Morgan Chase. I can't read thewhole list. We don't have time
right now. McAfee, Anti Virus, Caterpillar, Disney, Loreal, temper
Pedic, Volkswagen, Volvo. Thisgoes on and on and on and on

(19:17):
and on and on and on andon and on. Now, I gotta
imagine these kids aren't following these roles. How many of them are holding androids
and iPhones right now? Those areboth things on the list. And you
know what those temper Pedics, thoseMattriss people, and they're anti Palestinian mattresses.
It's just absolutely absurd. Funny howyou didn't mention any of the Palestinian

(19:37):
company. Oh, because there arenon, No, there's not. It's
because there are there are none.This is when barbaric cultures don't do anything
productive for society, And this isthis is a barbaric ideology we're facing.
It is the same ideology just threemiles south of Columbia University that knock down
those towers a couple of years ago, except they were at least brave enough

(20:00):
to fly the plane. These bunchof little cowards, all with their masks
on, are just sitting on thecampus lawn demanding that we came to radical
Islam. So it's the same exactmovement with a brand new face, and
we're treating them gently because we claimtheir children. You want to act like
adults, we will treat you likeadults. And we can end this very
very quickly if we actually had thepolitical will to do so. If you

(20:22):
just turn it on your radio,you're hearing the voice of Daniel Turner from
Power of the Future. Daniel isan activist and a journalist and somebody who
actually somebody on the right who defendsthe rights of energy workers, oil and
gas workers. That's what he doesfor a living, in addition to the
other work that he does. Andif you're interested, I want to invite
everybody listening right now. Come outon June sixth, that's a Thursday,

(20:45):
June sixth, for lunch. We'regoing to meet probably around eleven eleven thirty
at Giant Texas Distillers, home ofTahas Beer and Giant Texas Bourbon, and
come on out. We're going toeat lunch. It's going to be very
cool. It's going to be atown hall style event. People in the
audience will be allowed to participate,ask questions, have a lively discussion about

(21:07):
the election, about the future ofthe energy industry, about the border crisis,
about what's going on at college campusesaround the country, so much more.
It's going to be a lot offun. It's to support our friends
at Wheelchairs for Warriors Daniel. Whatelse could people expect to happen if they
come out to that event. Ithink they're going to have a great time
and know that they are are withlike minded friends who haven't given up on

(21:30):
this country, who haven't given upon Judeo Christian values in Western society and
Western culture, because that's who weare at war with. And it takes
the face of Occupy Wall Street,it takes the face of BLM, it
takes the face of free Palestine.But it is the same ugly ideology that
we have been battling for the historyof man, and definitely since Karl Marx.

(21:52):
It's the same cultural Marxism with anew face and shape. And it
will be nice to know that you'renot alone in this battle. The great
folks out there who understand the worldthe way you do. And boy,
if we all just started meeting eachother a little bit more and supporting each
other a little bit more, we'dget rid of these little peon peasants and
destroy them and put them back inthe shadows where they belong. Yeah.

(22:14):
You see these people on TV holdingfar left rallies that turn into riots,
and it's absolutely insane. The fundingnever seems to go away. George Soros
and so many other people here inHouston, the Arnold's funding this kind of
activism, and you think, wow, why can't somebody give a push to
our side like that? That's whatDaniel Turner Empower the Future do. So

(22:36):
if you want to be part ofit, we'll keep talking. I mean,
it's over a month away. Oh, it's roughly about one month away
as of tomorrow, but that isgoing to be on June sixth is a
Thursday. Coming to lunch with usat Giant Texas Distillers and follow my buddy
Daniel Turner on social media. Hello, my name is Pedro. My favorite
things to do as smuggle drugs,pro create like a rabbit, and it

(23:00):
isn't too Pursuit of happiness radio withproducer Kini Peace Stupie. Students all across
the country living intent encampments on collegecampuses. It's actually helpful for art and
philosophy majors since it's preparing them fortheir living conditions after graduating. Hi,

(23:25):
I'm Kenny Webster. Kind of amazing, gen Z. People are skipping college
to work in industries now like construction. According to a new report, not
every college, not every one ofthese young people is an idiot. Some
of them are actually trying to getreal jobs at trade schools and community colleges,
and not surprisingly, that's exactly wherethe protests are not happening. Isn't

(23:47):
that remarkable people that will end uphaving good jobs when they graduate? Shocking?
Right? Anyway, Today's May first, April's over, and what a
better way to ring in a newmonth than with a song to remember how
last month went cue the music pleasein Arizona. It's the eighteen sixties,
but it's been a great month forall the swifties. Trump is napping at

(24:10):
the council table. But there's muchmore to the month of April. Caitlin
Clark said, Paine the Irs setpain Me and Baby Reindeer made a sub
the cry the path of totality.Somehow we survived. Morgan Wallen can't handle
his liquor, OJ stops searching forhis ex wife's killer, and Britney Spears

(24:33):
is still unstable. One of manythings we learned in April. Kond goes
back to back. Reggie got hishigh stand back to Tennessee. Teachers will
be armed instead? Can we armthe doves on Christine Nomes Farm? April?

(24:55):
It's just a spoiled, peppered,narcissistic Hollywood bratt or what or what
isn't that interesting? Bella Hidid?You know who Bella Hadid is. We're
just talking about her in the lastsegment. She's a Hollywood she's a supermodel,
right, and she said she's quittingmodeling and moving to Texas. This

(25:17):
woman basically takes a crap on everythingthat Texas believes in but she says,
now the modeling industry hasn't been kindto me. I'm going to move to
Texas. Woman has spent her besidesbeing a very you know, vapid Hollywood
supermodel, has spent a lot ofher free time promoting far left politics,
and now she wants to live inthe biggest conservative state to enjoy our low

(25:37):
taxes and our big business climate.Even still, this isn't about Bella Hidide.
She lives in Fort Worth. Bythe way, if you run into
her. Edward Norton, you knowwho that is, the Hollywood actor.
I was just reading about this interviewhe did with CNBC on Breitbart dot Com.
He said, I think linear TVis kind of toast. I think

(25:59):
even what we associate with live TVnow sports and events and news will be
made available through streaming format. IfI was a cable company, I would
get ready to be nothing but abroadband delivery company. It's very accurate line.
Your TV is broadcast cable and satellitewhere you can only watch what is
on at that specific moment, andyou have to pay for it. Norton

(26:19):
explained that his children cannot even conceiveof anything other than watching what they want
when they want. The idea ofwaiting for something to come on TV,
including sports, is a non starter, he says. Says his kids are
eight and eleven and that they've neverlived in a world where they had to
wait for a show to start,Which is all well and good if you're

(26:41):
watching a movie or a TV show. Now, I know this is complicated
for things like sports or even whatI'm doing right now radio. It's a
little different broadcast talking news. Youwant your news to be live. That
makes sense. But for a lotof this stuff, especially when it comes
to movies and sitcoms and stand upcomedy, right, Norton is right.

(27:03):
When it comes to business investing in, Tachi's absolutely correct. We've been predicting
this for more than a decade.Cable TV is doomed. Satellite TV is
doomed. If they're asking you topay money to watch advertisements, you're doomed.
For the record, our product isfree, and we're grateful for all
the sponsors who support it. Butthat's why it's free. You know that

(27:25):
you understand Hollywood cannot survive on merit. We've talked about this many times on
this radio show. The Rigged affirmativeaction. That is, cable TV allowed
Hollywood to survive for decades on theopposite of merit, a socialist system where
one hundred million households subscribe to onehundred channels, even though they watch fewer

(27:48):
than ten of them every day.Everyone was subsidizing everyone else's niche programming.
You pay one hundred and fifty dollarsa month for access to Fox News,
TNT, Turner Classic Movie, butyou're not watching CNN or the Disney Channel
or MTV. Those outlets cannot surviveon merit, which is attracting audience ratings
high enough to earn the ad dollarsneeded to make a profit. Streaming is

(28:15):
merit based. If you like yourcontent, we pay for it. This
is why every streamer not named Netflixis losing billions. Their content sucks ass
It's all gay woe, consulting,preachy, poorly written, staffed with smug
and unappealing actors that hate you andthey hate me and they hate America.
On tap of losing millions of customersevery quarter, another factor that will probably

(28:40):
hasten cable's demise is streaming outlets movingto ads. There's only so much ad
revenue to go around Roku, Pluto, two B free V. There's plenty
of great free programming on streaming servicesat no cost to you. Yeah,
okay, you suffer through a fewads, big deal. Sometimes it's advertisers

(29:00):
that actually appeal to you. Ihope we're able to bring those to you
on this radio station. But here'sa question. Why is Netflix the only
profitable streamer out there? The answeris easy. Netflix has no choice but
to be profitable. Netflix only asNetflix, and what I mean by this
is Disney plus Paramount plus Peacock Maxall these other streaming outlets are a small

(29:23):
part of a massive multinational corporation.The streaming division could afford to lose money
because the multi nationals are making itelsewhere. Netflix only as Netflix. If
Netflix loses money, it can't survive. Its only income is streaming. Therefore,
Netflix actually has to be pleasing toits customers. Here at KPRC Radio,

(29:45):
we don't have a theme park,we don't make video games. We're
just a talk radio station in Houston. We have to have a good product.
Hopefully we do. Hopefully you appreciateit and value it. So the
whole system is rigged when it comesto things like Disney and Paramount and Peacock,
which is why a lot of uscanceled our streaming services and decided we

(30:07):
wanted to find entertainment elsewhere. Ihave some more updates for you on what
is going on at the riots aroundthe college campuses around the country right now.
We're going to get to those injust a minute. Isn't it interesting
too that this is all happening onMay Day. May Day is a communist
holiday. It's true. May Dayis a day when we remember the workers

(30:30):
European festival of ancient origins at thebeginning of summer. But it's really about
labor unions and Marxists and communists,and it all goes back to this thing
about one hundred years ago, theHaymarket riots in Chicago, when a bunch
of anarchists advocating for communism rioted inthe streets and killed cops. When people

(30:52):
tell you the world's changing, noneof this has ever happened before, this
political outreach in the streets of Americancities. Please point to a history book
and remind them this has actually happenedmany times. You are listening to the
Pursuit of Happiness Radio Pursuit of happiness. We don't have that in Mexico,

(31:27):
are we on? Oh good Hordan, Hi, everybody, still a little
bit of time left. Thanks fortuning in. If you ever miss a
minute of this radio show. Rememberthere's a free podcast you can download.
There's a smartphone app, the iHeartRadioapp, the Waldon and Johnson app.
You can listen to us twenty fourhours a day on Spotify, and we
make it so easy to hear theshow. Now if you are just getting

(31:48):
caught up with the show, ifyou're just getting tuned in, if you
haven't looked at the news over thepast twenty four hours, is a fascinating
to see. The New York PoliceDepartment finally was called in to liberate the
Columbia University Hamilton Hall, named afterAlexander Hamilton. Trump called into Fox News
as the New York Police Department sweepwas happening, and he pointed out he
thinks these activists are being funded TedCruz thinks they're being funded by George Soros.

(32:13):
I think that's probably a safe bet. The coverage from the school,
inside the school absolutely fascinating. Youknow, there's a college radio station in
a newspaper there and student journalists haveactually been doing a great job of people
keeping people informed of what's been goingon on campus, and surprisingly not as
not as left, not as muchleft wing biased as you think there would

(32:35):
be. Oh hope, Hopefully thosekids have a future in this industry.
We'll see in the meantime, massarrests, hears falling like rain. You
got to wonder where the Columbia protesterswill go next. You have pro Israel,
pro American Native American groups out theretrolling protesters in places like New York
City. UCLA protesters crumbled when pressedon their ridiculous claims by journalists. We

(33:00):
played some of that audio for youearlier in the show. Anarchy erupted at
a pro Palestinian encampment in UCLA.A Jewish woman, a Jewish college girl,
was violently attacked and beaten unconscious.Local people responded with even more violence.
I don't know if you guys haveheard about this, but political riots
in the city of Los Angeles don'tnormally end well. For more on this,

(33:22):
see the early nineties. I'm justsaying it's a strange time. None
of this is shocking. I mean, four years ago we had Black Lives
Matter riots happening all over America.Now we have pro Palestine Islamic extremist riots
happening all over America. There's acolumnist at Blaze Media, the Blaze dot

(33:42):
com, Jim Nells. You've heardhim on this radio show before. He
just published his weekly column there earliertoday. I encourage you all to take
a look at it. America's topuniversities embrace suicide by mob. Jim,
thanks for your time this afternoon.I guess we'll start off with this.
The basis of your article really cutsright to the nitty gritty of what's going
on. The administrators, the presidents, the people in charge of these universities,

(34:07):
simply by allowing this to take place, there's no exit strategy for them
that can end well, is there? No? There isn't, because they're
trying to do what Joe Biden's tryingto do and then split the baby right.
They're trying to not anger the protestersbecause Laward knows we've got to be
supportive of the folks who rake women, rape men, and then put babies

(34:29):
in microwave uves and kill them infront of their parents. But we also
don't want to upset the donors becauseyou know, we kind of need that
adowminant thing going. So they're failingmiserably what they should be doing. As
I put out in my articles,they should be following the law. They
should roll all these people up.They should not only suspend them, but
expel them if they're breaking the lawon campus. And going back to the

(34:50):
point that you brought up during yourintro, this is definitely being funded by
George Searles. There's a very goodarticle about that in the New York Posts.
If you look at the video ofall these places where they have the
little tent city set up, theyall have the same tents, and those
tents cost about five hundred bucks apiece, and students don't have five hundred bucks
a piece to buy a tent.Someone's funding this, and it does look

(35:10):
like it's George, So respect ingos that are doing it. How did
you know they were five hundred dollarsa tent? I kind of thought they
were. I tried looking up onAmazon or looking around online, you know,
ARII what tents they were using,and the tent I thought they were
all using was a cheaper tent.But any at any rate, you're not
wrong they all have the same tent, I mean, Ucla Columbia. It

(35:34):
seems a little like a little toomuch of a coincidence to me. Absolutely,
And you know the other thing goingback to the administration here, and
by the way, if you wantto see those tests, you know,
and you can just go down toyour local Dick Sporting because which is what
I did, to see how muchthey cost. But yeah, but don't
try to buy an air of fifteenat Dicks, as you still won't be
able to find one there. No, it doesn't know they had guns.
Yeah, let's go to what's happeningright now at university still in California,

(36:00):
where the feckless administration decided to cancelgraduation ceremonies for the students who have followed
the rules and who have done everythingthey're supposed to do and just want to
graduate. This is the COVID generation. Were these folks who are graduating this
year were seniors in high school inCOVID. They didn't get a senior prom,
they did not get a high schoolgraduation. And now these feckless administrators

(36:22):
are capitulating to them and taking awaytheir ability to graduate from college. But
they gladly took the four hundred thousanddollars from the parents in order for them
to go to school there but notbe able to graduate. All right,
Jim, tell me if I'm justtoo pessimistic, maybe I've swallowed the black
tail. But four years ago,when I saw riots happening all over the
country, not on college campuses,mind you, but in big city areas,

(36:45):
and moments after we were told wecouldn't protest against COVID lockdowns, Black
Lives Matter, George Floyd, riotsin every major city, dozens of deaths,
blood, millions of dollars, billionsof dollars in damage. I wanted
it to stop. And now fouryears later, you see this happening on
college campuses, especially when you seeit happening and in Democrat liberal strongholds like

(37:07):
New York City or Los Angeles,there's a part of me that I just
don't care anymore. I don't careif they riot. I don't. In
fact, I almost wonder if maybethere could be a pro to this.
Could this be the thing that redpills inner city liberals enough to realize,
you know, maybe letting Democrats controleverything from the media to local government institutions

(37:28):
to our universities. Maybe that wasn'tthe best idea. I think it's a
great theory. Unfortunately, I don'tthink a lot of the inner city liberals
really care what happens on an elitecollege campus such as Columbia University of Southern
California or Northwestern University here on hometownof Chicago. It's not something that they
care. They care about their kidsgetting shot on the way home from school.

(37:50):
They don't care about someone supporting Palestinianterrorists and folks like that. But
what I think you're going to seeis you're going to see a lot more
of the educated liberal, leftisty legalwhoa wait a minute, wait, whoa
whoa, whoa wait. I'm aJew and I don't like that. And
here's my fifty thousand dollars, chuck, I was going to write to fill
into blank University. And here's avideo of me carrying it up and nailing

(38:15):
you the pieces of mister Chancellor ofex University. I think that's what we're
going to start seeing. You're alreadyseeing it with Harvard, with some of
the big hedge funds guys who havedecided they're no longer going to support Harvard
we're seeing at Northwestern with what theydid to capitulate to the mob by granting
them the right to stay camping oncampus through June first, and then deciding

(38:35):
to fund scholarships for Palestinian students aswell, going to hire Palestinian teachers.
And my fellow guys who graduated fromthere with me, we've all decided no
more money from that school. AndI think that's what's going to hurt the
schools, and that's what's going tochange everything. I'm glad you brought up
Northwestern because as you know, I'mfrom Illinois. You and I have spoken
before. I grew up in thenorth of Chicago, way out in the

(38:57):
suburbs in Lake County, and soI'm familiar with Western University. I have
a friend who's a math professor there. Surprisingly conservative. In fact, apparently
a lot of math professors are conservative. They're just not extroverts, so they
don't talk about politics on campus thatmuch. But my friend tells me that
the spirit, the mood around NorthwesternUniversity right now, knowing that the administrators

(39:19):
at the school have folded, havebent the knee to the rage mob,
They're going to give out free scholarshipsto the protesters. They're going to hire
and promote and give raises to theactivist professors. Is very concerning. It's
very upsetting to people at the campus. But I guess it doesn't matter,
does it. As long as thosepeople keep applying to school and being willing
to pay the seventy five eighty thousanddollars a year to go to school there,

(39:42):
they don't care. But I thinkwe're also at a tipping point because
one of the things I brought upin my article is, Kenny, you
don't see these protests going on atrade schools. No, don't see blue
collar people out there in the streetsmarching and support of Helmas. You see
these rich, trust fundent liberal kidswho, let's be honest, ninety nine
percent of them don't even know whatthe heck they're protesting about. Right It's

(40:05):
just the cool thing to do oncampus right now, because they saw,
as you brought up during the SaintGeorge Floyd riots, that it's okay to
protests, it's okay to burn downthe buildings, it's okay to go against
what happened, to go against whatthe law says, because there are zero
repercussions That's why you saw people withColumbia demanding reparations for their time while they
were protesting, demanding that they'd begiving food, demanding that they have their

(40:29):
suspensions of revoked, and they putback in class. And on's face it,
in New York City where those guyswere arrested, guess what, Alvin
Bragg is going to dismiss all thecharges and then I guarantee you there'll be
a classessing lawsuit against the New YorkCity Police Department for police brutality, and
the City of New York will settleand pay tens of millions of dollars for
these students who were rioting and protestingand they legally took over building because maybe

(40:52):
one police officer said something wrong thatoffended that person. Boy, you nail,
That's exactly what I think is goingto happen. Jim, and you
mentioned Harvard University a short time ago. I just stumbled across this video.
The campus occupiers at Harvard released apropaganda video showcasing the liberated Zone. I'm
just gonna play a little bit ofthis sound for you. I'd love for

(41:12):
you to hear this. Welcome tothe Harvard Liberty itself and Argaza Solidarity.
This is our list of toms,all right, It's it's a little loud
and congested, but it's it's agay guy various sections. It's a gay
guy walking around Harvard University with aHamas scarf on, showing his list of
demands to the professors there. AndI suppose this is another one of those

(41:37):
Queers for Palestine activists. So manyof us have asked so many times,
why would gay rights activists in Americawant to support a foreign government that appears
to have no respect for gay rightsin their region of the world. So
instead of asking you about that,Jim, I'll just ask you this.
You think the Chicago Cubs have anychance to make it to the playoffs this
year? Hell, I tell youwhat. I tell you what, one

(42:02):
of those queers for Palestine or transgendersfor public sign has a better chance of
being elected the mayor of Gaza ofwinning the championship this year. But I
do want to make a serious commentbecause these people are stupid, you know,
the Queerest for Palestine, transgender studentsfor palest sign. They don't seem
to understand that they would be thrownoff of a building if they were in

(42:23):
Gaza and they were called being queeror caught being transgender. That's like saying
that I am a pal for Hamburger. It is just a stupid, stupid
thing to do. And it showsthat while people may score very well on
the SAT and they may have ahigh IQ, we've got a lot of
really, really, really stupid smartpeople in this country. Mine long under

(42:44):
the age of twenty two. It'samazing to me that I have some of
these people in my family, nottwo distant family members. Ivy League educated
and they got a lot of booksmarts, not a lot of streets smarts.
Jim Nell's a brilliant man, agreat writer. You should check out
his work at Blaze Media. Hisweekly column there just published his latest work,
Jim, come back soon. Iappreciate your time this afternoon. My

(43:05):
man. Hey to the rest ofyou, I love you all so much.

you bought a radio for. Havea great afternoon. You are listening to
the Pursuit of Happiness Radio. Tellthe government to kiss You're ask when you
