This is the country that literally kicked the crap out of
the British Empire in 1776 and now they're out here pretending
they're suddenly ruled by a monarch again.
News flash, that was the original No Kings protest.
Muskets, cannons, powdered wigs,not Tik toks, virtue signalling
screens and pink cardboard signs.

Their political compass is powered by social media trends

It's rhetoric without reality. Here's the difference.

Welcome to Stay in the Fray podcast.
I'm your host, Ryan. This is where headlines get hit
hard, hypocracy gets shredded, and the absurd are laughed at.
If you want comfort, this isn't your place.
If you want blunt and unfiltered, I'm your guy.
Join me in the Fray. What?
You need to do is just listen up.
(01:11):
All right, hey guys, I'm kind ofin a pissed off mood, so I think
this is going to work great. So you don't want to miss this
one. These trolls, these people that
are just the scum of the earth, I feel like they need to take
time out of their day to make threats to basically troll and
take way too much of my attention.
(01:32):
So just to let you know, that's kind of in the background, but I
guess it all kind of applies to what I'm going to talk about
tonight. I do have a cocktail with me to
help and don't make fun of the colour.
I have children. When there's fucking juice all
over the house, you take advantage and you pour some into
some vodka. So let's, let's get going.
(01:55):
The no kings bullshit. No kings really, really.
That's the chant. The narrative that modern
liberals are now going with is, is this idea that Trump wants to
be a king or that he's on his way to being a king?
Are you sure you want to die on this hill?
(02:15):
Are you sure you want to double down on this because it makes
you look idiotic and we're laughing?
This is the country that literally kicked the crap out of
the British Empire in 1776 and now they're out here pretending
they're suddenly ruled by a monarch again.
News flash, that was the original no Kings protest.
(02:36):
Muskets, cannons, powdered wigs,not Tik Toks, virtue signalling
screams and pink cardboard signs.
These people now couldn't definemonarchy if you bribe them with
a pumpkin spice latte and a participation trophy.
They're crying about tyranny on an iPhone made in China while
live streaming their tantrum under protection of the 1st
(02:57):
Amendment. If we actually had a king, you
would not be dancing in the streets in your Che Guevara
T-shirts. You'd be in jail cell for LA's
Majesty wondering why you're vegan Commission.
I'm so mad we don't do crowns here in this country.
Get real. We do ballots and our president
(03:20):
was duly elected. Then of course, the geniuses
apply to me when I talk about kings.
Protest. Well, Britain has a king and
they can protest. Yeah, no shit, scholar.
The King over there cuts ribbonsand waves at parades.
Parliament actually runs the show.
The King is a mascot, not a monarch.
Stop acting like you discovered political science because you
(03:42):
saw The Crown on Netflix. The only coronation you people
have is when your group chat finally agrees on a pronoun.
Let's break this down. This is Stay in the Fray
podcast. It is October 22nd, 2025.
Let's roll. You know, I actually tried to
figure out what this so-called No Kings protest was really
(04:04):
about. Big mistake.
I thought maybe I'd miss some secret coronation where Trump
popped out of a golden carriage shouting Long live me, not so
(04:27):
much. Turns out that the protest is
actually about authoritarianism,the death of democracy, America
turning into a monarchy. All these buzzwords and phrases
that they get in their memos each morning, that's their
slogan. That's what those are, their
slogans. No kings.
You can almost hear the drum circle forming.
But here's the thing, If you have to shout no kings, that's a
(04:51):
sign that you don't understand how any of this works.
We've got elections. We've got term limits.
We've got a press that foams at the mouth, mouth of Trump,
sneezes near a microphone. That's not tyranny.
That's a Tuesday in the US. And just listen to what our
president had to say in responseto this.
No King's Gathering. Cisco, I'm not a king.
(05:14):
I'm not a king. I work my ass off to make our
country great. That's all it is.
I'm not a king at all. Simple to the point.
There's no name calling, no defensiveness.
He just literally said I'm not aking.
I work my ass off for this country.
If there weren't so many people that that supported him and he
knew that, you almost kind of hear the man just I can't get.
(05:38):
I just nobody wants to. It's sad, but whatever.
Somehow it's what set him off. The guy flat out denies being a
monarch. And they say, see, that's what a
dictator would say. He can't win with these people.
Their political compass is powered by social media trends
and trauma therapy. So let's just call this what it
(06:01):
is. It's rhetoric without reality.
They chant about saving democracy while ignoring the
results of one. They warn us about crowns and
Thrones, but the only royal ceremony happening is the one in
their heads. If you're shouting king, show me
the royal decree. Show me the palace guards.
(06:22):
Show me literally anything besides a crowd of unemployed
art majors holding cardboard andcrying about fake fascism.
Here's the truth. This isn't a protest against
power, it's a process. A protest against losing power.
No Kings is just the latest rebrand for we didn't get our
way in 2024. And if that's the hill that they
(06:43):
want to die on then fine, but atleast admit it.
Stop pretending you're Paul fucking Revere riding around and
just admit it. You know what's funny?
Every time they pull one of these democracy and danger
parades, the numbers magically grow by the hour.
The 2, two, couple, 1000 people in the morning somehow becomes
hundreds of thousands by noon, and then by sunset it's half of
(07:08):
them. It's the same 12 people filmed
from different angles. Suddenly the revolutions
sponsored by whoever rented the drone.
So let's talk about that math problem, the headcount hype, the
astroturf armies and the miracleof protesters who multiply
faster than government debt. The numbers, or at least the
fantasy version of them, depending on which outlet you
(07:29):
read, there were hundreds of thousands, millions, or
basically everyone in America except for you out there yelling
no kings. Here's the reality check.
We've got 335 million people in this country.
And sure, how about this? We'll take the best number, the
highest, which I saw at about 7 million.
(07:49):
That sounds massive until you remember that that's about 2% of
the population. 2% Statistically, that's a rounding
error. More people watch the Friends
reunion, so spare me the nationwide uprising narrative.
This was a noisy fraction tryingto cosplay as a revolution. 98%
stayed home and either laughed at you or hung their heads in
(08:11):
shame for aligning with you politically.
Now the part that no one in corporate media touches because
it ruins the narrative. The crowd for hire game.
You can literally go online and find agencies that specialize in
supplying protesters. These people brag about it in
interviews. They're paid to amplify social
causes which is PR speak for make it look organic when it's
(08:34):
really not. Go look.
There's a lot of video evidence of this and people admitting
that they're paid to be out there.
It's not a conspiracy, it's a business model.
NGOs funnel money through activist grants and the out the
other incomes professionally angry people holding whatever
sign the sponsor of the week wants.
(08:54):
If you want to argue, how about how much they're paid, or how
many of them are out there, or which organizations cutting the
check, fine. But pretending like it it's not
happening is like pretending Hollywood doesn't use extras in
their movies. And that's exactly what these
crowds are, extras in a political commercial.
Real movements don't need casting calls for DMS for free
(09:15):
box lunches. So when I hear these pundits say
the people have spoken, I have to ask which people?
The ones cashing the checks though, or the ones cashing in
on the coverage? So why don't we talk about these
people out there giving this circus a soundtrack?
I get that some of these poor people really think they're
being genuine out there. I understand that they have been
(09:38):
indoctrinated so, so badly that they likely think Trump's
already wearing the crown. But there are a lot of trash
humans, and it's funny how theseprotests tend to shine a light
on them. You've probably seen this this
clip, the Chicago teacher Lucy Martinez from Nathan Hale
(09:59):
Elementary. She's on camera grinning, making
a gun to the neck gesture, mocking the assassination of
Charlie Kirk. In case you missed it, here it
is quickly, simple as that. I mean it.
It went on for a few more seconds as people are driving
by. That's a teacher someone trusted
(10:22):
to guide kids. The school's sight went dark
after the video blew up, and there's no public word on
whether she's been terminated. Sure, if the school makes the
right decision. Either way, that's who's in the
middle of this movement. That's the moral compass on
display. And it wasn't just her, either.
(10:43):
About this sign. Classy as ever.
Which heals faster, Trump's ear or Erica's heart?
In reference to Charlie's wife? Another said.
I wish he hadn't turned his head.
You read that right, people standing in the street joking
about a presidential candidate'sassassination.
(11:05):
Except it's not really a joke. They genuinely mean they wish
that he was dead. Here's the difference between
them and me, them and us. I despise, despise.
When he was in office of Obama and his policies, I think he
divided the country. He was the first one to do it
with identity politics. We can argue that all you want
(11:27):
at another time. That's not what this is about.
The bottom line is I didn't likethe man had nothing to do with
race either. So put that shit back in your
pocket. I despised bite.
How about that? He was a disaster and half the
Democratic bench couldn't managea lemonade stand.
I would never wish them dead. That is the difference between
(11:47):
opposition and obsession. One side argues, the other
fantasizes about funerals. It's all absurd trash humans and
it doesn't stock with cardboard.Here's a video of a man in
Chicago yelling into a mic telling people to get a gun and
shoot ICE agents. Roll this, boys.
(12:08):
You got to grab a gun. We got to turn around the guns
on this fascist system. These ICE agents got to get shot
and wiped out. Turn the guns on the fascist
system. I'm well waiting all of for all
(12:30):
of you to catch up with that, with the irony of of this
fucking idiot. That is not free speech, by the
way. That is incitement.
One O 1. And somehow then the same
politicians, Crockett and AOC, they keep insisting that we're
the ones driving the violence. It's unreal.
Show me something like this anywhere.
(12:50):
I'll show you 50 of them today. From the left, show me.
From the right, show me anythingwhere people are sitting there
in a park yelling through a megaphone to kill somebody.
It's no longer funny. It's no longer just, oh, the
left's being crazy again. I don't want to live with it.
No one no, no really wants to live with it.
You're fading. By the way.
(13:11):
There was another separate arrest in New York.
A guy charged after threatening to to firebomb federal agents
during the same protests. Spare me the mostly peaceful and
it had both sides routine. When the soundtrack of your
rally includes threats, you're not marching for democracy,
(13:32):
you're auditioning for a mug shot.
And good, I need to chuckle a little bit.
So just to make sure we all understand how serious this
revolution is to them, here comethe dance numbers.
Watch this. Who's this dude on the right?
(14:07):
It goes on for a while. Believe it or not, they're
having a good time. But I just.
That's all you need to see. Look, I love a good laugh, but
watching lefties twerk for democracy doesn't exactly scream
power to the people. You may be having fun dancing
like dorks, but it doesn't change a single law, fix a
single problem, or win a single vote.
(14:29):
It just proves the point. This whole movement is more
performance art than it is a protest.
It's a waste of fucking time. I want to talk about the
meltdown on the left over some brilliant video clips because
apparently humor is now a threatto national security.
If one side is going to invent afictional issue to protest, then
(14:53):
our president and Vice presidentcan 100% make up some videos to
counter it while we all laugh atyou.
First up, we've all seen it. I'm going to play it again.
Trump's AI fighter jet clip. In case you haven't seen it,
Roll this guys. It's fantastic.
(15:30):
I mean, I think there's a littlebit more to it, but you get the
point. And you know, Kenny Loggins has
all bent out of shape because weused his song and shut up,
Kenny, You're lucky that Top Gunchose your song or you'd be
nothing. So deal with it.
It's funny, the man President Trump, posts a joke video of
himself piloting an F16 droppingdigital sludge something.
(15:53):
It's feces, some say dirt, you decide.
But dropping it on pundits like Harry Scisson, that guy and the
rest of the professional cry babies and the left reacts like
he actually launched and he's dropping bombs.
Never seen it. This is satire.
It's pixels. The only thing it bombed was
(16:15):
their sense of humor. Then JD Vance drops his Hail to
the King video. It is awesome.
Let's watch this one. Brilliant, so brilliant Avenged
(16:49):
Sevenfold blaring, by the way, II love that band.
I always have. So please don't come out and get
all man mad that JD used you. But I love that song.
A7 DAC says they're known was blaring, Trump and Slow MO,
Pelosi and Schumer needling at the end.
Art. Pure Internet poetry.
(17:10):
The right laughs, the memes fly,and then the comments sections
light up. Meanwhile, the usual suspects
start demanding congressional investigations into Photoshop.
Here's the difference. We laugh and they cry.
They can't handle losing the joke war, so they try and
(17:30):
criminalize laughter. AI memes aren't coups, they're
jokes with a render queue. These are the same moral
referees who faint over as CGI fighter jet and had zero problem
when Kathy Griffin proudly posedwith a fake severed Trump head
(17:51):
that was called performance art.Just the other day I saw a
despicable statue mock up of Charlie Kirk water spurting from
a hole in the neck. Satire to them I suppose, but an
AI video of Trump dropping digital mud?
Oh Oh no, spare me the Pearl clutching about tone from the
(18:14):
same crowd that cheered that Griffin photo.
Can you people really not see the difference?
We call for accountability of people murdering people and
you're demanding accountability about a fucking AI video?
What's the matter with you? What actually deserves outrage?
Real images of violence, Real violence, real calls for it.
(18:36):
The same people pretending to defend civility or the one still
refusing to condemn threats against Trump, his family, or
anyone on the right. The right essays about
accountability from meme but stay silent when an activist
screams into a mic about shooting federal agents.
The hypocrisy is not subtle. It's the whole show for these
people. So no, I do not want to lecture
(18:59):
on decency from people who turn blood imagery into fashion and
now meltdown over a looping AI clip.
Fuck you when your outrage depends on who's in the picture.
It's not morality, it's marketing.
Let's look real quickly at what happened last week.
Grok and AI chatbot claimed we don't know whether it's a
Twitter X Excuse Me Claimed thatMSNBC used old 2017 footage to
(19:25):
show the Boston protests. Then a wave of fact checks hit
saying the footage was actually current.
So who's right? It depends on which headline you
clicked first. Which AI do you believe?
Which Fact Check do you believe?Can one of those have an agenda?
This is media fog. Every outlet wants a hero and a
(19:45):
villain before the facts are even cold.
So when these protests break out, the coverage is less about
what happened and more about howdramatic they can make it look.
They inflate crowd shots, pick the loudest sound bites, crop
the empty streets. It's emotional framing sold as
journalism, and that distortion feeds the same mob mindset we've
(20:06):
seen on the ground. People act on feelings, not
fact. The tragedy is the fog itself
becomes a story. The left screams disinformation
while their own side pumps out half truths to keep the outrage
rolling. Nobody walks away informed, just
angrier and angrier. In their world is the product.
(20:30):
After watching this whole thing play out last weekend, No kings.
All the bullshit, all the aftermath, the horribly behaved
crowds. I should add the fake numbers,
the media recycling of bullshit.You start to realize it's not
just about one weekend of no kings.
It's been the same pattern. Every time the left loses, these
(20:54):
absurd protests just shine a spotlight on it.
They've turned politics into a football game where one team
loses badly and then they demandthe league change the outcome.
Every play the other team runs the rest of the way through,
they cry for a flag. Every roster move the team
(21:14):
makes, they scream corruption. Every touchdown conspiracy.
But now it's past whining. It's dangerous.
They're so angry about losing that they'll burn down the
stadium just to keep the scoreboard from lighting up
again. They'll twist the rules, the
refs, even reality itself if it means pretending that they
(21:36):
didn't lose. Here is the truth.
The whistle already blew, the scores on the board, the country
solid. The rest is just tantrum time.
You don't fix a loss by torchingthe field, you fix it by playing
better next season. Until then, spare the rest of us
(21:59):
the outrage theater. We've got real problems to
solve. And your team, their team's
still screaming at the replay booth.
I am fatigued by it all, the noise, the lies and the endless
tantrums. And I know so many of you guys
are too. So stick with me here.
Let's do this thing. It's a great spot to vent, to
(22:22):
listen to somebody who's like minded and to be reminded that
reality still exists. So share this, share this with
with one person, somebody that you think wants or needs to hear
it. So stay smart, stay humble, stay
brave, stay in the fray. Love you guys, all you.
(22:44):
Had to do was just listen up.
This is the country that literally kicked the crap out of
the British Empire in 1776 and now they're out here pretending
they're suddenly ruled by a monarch again.
News flash, that was the original No Kings protest.
Muskets, cannons, powdered wigs,not Tik toks, virtue signalling
screens and pink cardboard signs.
(00:23):
Their political compass is powered by social media trends
and trauma therapy, so let's just call this what it is.
It's rhetoric without reality. Here's the difference.
We laugh and they cry. They can't handle losing the
joke war, so they try and criminalize laughter.

already wearing the crown. But there are a lot of trash
humans, and it's funny how theseprotests tend to shine a light
on them. You've probably seen this this
clip, the Chicago teacher Lucy Martinez from Nathan Hale
(09:59):
Elementary. She's on camera grinning, making
a gun to the neck gesture, mocking the assassination of
Charlie Kirk. In case you missed it, here it
is quickly, simple as that. I mean it.
It went on for a few more seconds as people are driving
by. That's a teacher someone trusted
(10:22):
to guide kids. The school's sight went dark
after the video blew up, and there's no public word on
whether she's been terminated. Sure, if the school makes the
right decision. Either way, that's who's in the
middle of this movement. That's the moral compass on
display. And it wasn't just her, either.
(10:43):
About this sign. Classy as ever.
Which heals faster, Trump's ear or Erica's heart?
In reference to Charlie's wife? Another said.
I wish he hadn't turned his head.
You read that right, people standing in the street joking
about a presidential candidate'sassassination.
(11:05):
Except it's not really a joke. They genuinely mean they wish
that he was dead. Here's the difference between
them and me, them and us. I despise, despise.
When he was in office of Obama and his policies, I think he
divided the country. He was the first one to do it
with identity politics. We can argue that all you want
(11:27):
at another time. That's not what this is about.
The bottom line is I didn't likethe man had nothing to do with
race either. So put that shit back in your
pocket. I despised bite.
How about that? He was a disaster and half the
Democratic bench couldn't managea lemonade stand.
I would never wish them dead. That is the difference between
(11:47):
opposition and obsession. One side argues, the other
fantasizes about funerals. It's all absurd trash humans and
it doesn't stock with cardboard.Here's a video of a man in
Chicago yelling into a mic telling people to get a gun and
shoot ICE agents. Roll this, boys.
(12:08):
You got to grab a gun. We got to turn around the guns
on this fascist system. These ICE agents got to get shot
and wiped out. Turn the guns on the fascist
system. I'm well waiting all of for all
(12:30):
of you to catch up with that, with the irony of of this
fucking idiot. That is not free speech, by the
way. That is incitement.
One O 1. And somehow then the same
politicians, Crockett and AOC, they keep insisting that we're
the ones driving the violence. It's unreal.
Show me something like this anywhere.
(12:50):
I'll show you 50 of them today. From the left, show me.
From the right, show me anythingwhere people are sitting there
in a park yelling through a megaphone to kill somebody.
It's no longer funny. It's no longer just, oh, the
left's being crazy again. I don't want to live with it.
No one no, no really wants to live with it.
You're fading. By the way.
(13:11):
There was another separate arrest in New York.
A guy charged after threatening to to firebomb federal agents
during the same protests. Spare me the mostly peaceful and
it had both sides routine. When the soundtrack of your
rally includes threats, you're not marching for democracy,
(13:32):
you're auditioning for a mug shot.
And good, I need to chuckle a little bit.
So just to make sure we all understand how serious this
revolution is to them, here comethe dance numbers.
Watch this. Who's this dude on the right?
(14:07):
It goes on for a while. Believe it or not, they're
having a good time. But I just.
That's all you need to see. Look, I love a good laugh, but
watching lefties twerk for democracy doesn't exactly scream
power to the people. You may be having fun dancing
like dorks, but it doesn't change a single law, fix a
single problem, or win a single vote.
(14:29):
It just proves the point. This whole movement is more
performance art than it is a protest.
It's a waste of fucking time. I want to talk about the
meltdown on the left over some brilliant video clips because
apparently humor is now a threatto national security.
If one side is going to invent afictional issue to protest, then
(14:53):
our president and Vice presidentcan 100% make up some videos to
counter it while we all laugh atyou.
First up, we've all seen it. I'm going to play it again.
Trump's AI fighter jet clip. In case you haven't seen it,
Roll this guys. It's fantastic.
(15:30):
I mean, I think there's a littlebit more to it, but you get the
point. And you know, Kenny Loggins has
all bent out of shape because weused his song and shut up,
Kenny, You're lucky that Top Gunchose your song or you'd be
nothing. So deal with it.
It's funny, the man President Trump, posts a joke video of
himself piloting an F16 droppingdigital sludge something.
(15:53):
It's feces, some say dirt, you decide.
But dropping it on pundits like Harry Scisson, that guy and the
rest of the professional cry babies and the left reacts like
he actually launched and he's dropping bombs.
Never seen it. This is satire.
It's pixels. The only thing it bombed was
(16:15):
their sense of humor. Then JD Vance drops his Hail to
the King video. It is awesome.
Let's watch this one. Brilliant, so brilliant Avenged
(16:49):
Sevenfold blaring, by the way, II love that band.
I always have. So please don't come out and get
all man mad that JD used you. But I love that song.
A7 DAC says they're known was blaring, Trump and Slow MO,
Pelosi and Schumer needling at the end.
Art. Pure Internet poetry.
(17:10):
The right laughs, the memes fly,and then the comments sections
light up. Meanwhile, the usual suspects
start demanding congressional investigations into Photoshop.
Here's the difference. We laugh and they cry.
They can't handle losing the joke war, so they try and
(17:30):
criminalize laughter. AI memes aren't coups, they're
jokes with a render queue. These are the same moral
referees who faint over as CGI fighter jet and had zero problem
when Kathy Griffin proudly posedwith a fake severed Trump head
(17:51):
that was called performance art.Just the other day I saw a
despicable statue mock up of Charlie Kirk water spurting from
a hole in the neck. Satire to them I suppose, but an
AI video of Trump dropping digital mud?
Oh Oh no, spare me the Pearl clutching about tone from the
(18:14):
same crowd that cheered that Griffin photo.
Can you people really not see the difference?
We call for accountability of people murdering people and
you're demanding accountability about a fucking AI video?
What's the matter with you? What actually deserves outrage?
Real images of violence, Real violence, real calls for it.
(18:36):
The same people pretending to defend civility or the one still
refusing to condemn threats against Trump, his family, or
anyone on the right. The right essays about
accountability from meme but stay silent when an activist
screams into a mic about shooting federal agents.
The hypocrisy is not subtle. It's the whole show for these
people. So no, I do not want to lecture
(18:59):
on decency from people who turn blood imagery into fashion and
now meltdown over a looping AI clip.
Fuck you when your outrage depends on who's in the picture.
It's not morality, it's marketing.
Let's look real quickly at what happened last week.
Grok and AI chatbot claimed we don't know whether it's a
Twitter X Excuse Me Claimed thatMSNBC used old 2017 footage to
(19:25):
show the Boston protests. Then a wave of fact checks hit
saying the footage was actually current.
So who's right? It depends on which headline you
clicked first. Which AI do you believe?
Which Fact Check do you believe?Can one of those have an agenda?
This is media fog. Every outlet wants a hero and a
(19:45):
villain before the facts are even cold.
So when these protests break out, the coverage is less about
what happened and more about howdramatic they can make it look.
They inflate crowd shots, pick the loudest sound bites, crop
the empty streets. It's emotional framing sold as
journalism, and that distortion feeds the same mob mindset we've
(20:06):
seen on the ground. People act on feelings, not
fact. The tragedy is the fog itself
becomes a story. The left screams disinformation
while their own side pumps out half truths to keep the outrage
rolling. Nobody walks away informed, just
angrier and angrier. In their world is the product.
(20:30):
After watching this whole thing play out last weekend, No kings.
All the bullshit, all the aftermath, the horribly behaved
crowds. I should add the fake numbers,
the media recycling of bullshit.You start to realize it's not
just about one weekend of no kings.
It's been the same pattern. Every time the left loses, these
(20:54):
absurd protests just shine a spotlight on it.
They've turned politics into a football game where one team
loses badly and then they demandthe league change the outcome.
Every play the other team runs the rest of the way through,
they cry for a flag. Every roster move the team
(21:14):
makes, they scream corruption. Every touchdown conspiracy.
But now it's past whining. It's dangerous.
They're so angry about losing that they'll burn down the
stadium just to keep the scoreboard from lighting up
again. They'll twist the rules, the
refs, even reality itself if it means pretending that they
(21:36):
didn't lose. Here is the truth.
The whistle already blew, the scores on the board, the country
solid. The rest is just tantrum time.
You don't fix a loss by torchingthe field, you fix it by playing
better next season. Until then, spare the rest of us
(21:59):
the outrage theater. We've got real problems to
solve. And your team, their team's
still screaming at the replay booth.
I am fatigued by it all, the noise, the lies and the endless
tantrums. And I know so many of you guys
are too. So stick with me here.
Let's do this thing. It's a great spot to vent, to
(22:22):
listen to somebody who's like minded and to be reminded that
reality still exists. So share this, share this with
with one person, somebody that you think wants or needs to hear
it. So stay smart, stay humble, stay
brave, stay in the fray. Love you guys, all you.
(22:44):
Had to do was just listen up.
