This is the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The
Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday. We're talking
about all kinds of things. We just talked about immigration,
but I still have to get to We're gonna talk
about the houthy, the people we're shooting missiles at right now,
and what's going on there in the Red Sea. I
have to discuss the most discriminated people, the people that
(00:37):
are most discriminated against in the United States of America.
I'll explain who that is. Donald Trump says, the pardons,
Joe Biden signed, or Noll and Void. Will discuss all
that the Democrats are crazy and so much more coming
up on The Jesse Kelly Show. But you know what
time it is. It is our two on Monday. The
(00:59):
start of our two on Monday means we are about
to do Medal of Honor Monday for you new listeners.
We just take a Medal of Honor citation and we
read it. That's it, nothing special about it. You can
do it at home, you can do it with you
can do it at your work, do it with your class,
your sports team, everybody likes to hear these stories everybody,
(01:23):
and it's important that we hear these stories. It's one
of those rare things that not only is it good,
it's good for you, unlike vegetables, which are disgusting, but
they're good for you. You understand what I mean. It's healthy.
We want to hold these people up, hold their deeds up.
We should remember these names. This one I'm about to
read here. Honestly, I don't know how it's not a movie.
(01:47):
I'm really floored that it's not a movie. But it's
not a movie. And that remind you of Let me
remind you of this before I read the Medal of
Honor citation for a Leslie Burke. Officially his name is
Lloyd Leslie Scooter Burke, but they called him Leslie Burke. Remember,
if you know a Korean War veteran, those guys are
(02:09):
starting to get old too. But if you know a
Korean War veteran, I realized that war doesn't get all
the play of World War Two. Of course, nothing does.
It doesn't even get near the play of Vietnam. I
get that too. If you know a Korean War veteran,
that person very likely has seen some things and been
(02:30):
through some things on behalf of his country. The last
time I watched a Korean War documentary, and I've seen several,
virtually every one of the old timers they had on there.
When he'd start talking with his hands hands, you'd realize,
oh wow, he doesn't have fingers on that hand. Oh look,
this guy lost his nose. Korean War guys saw some things,
(02:55):
and this dude here is something special. Before I read it.
I wanted to let you know this before Leslie Burke
did what I'm about to explain to you.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
He did.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
He was on his way home. And when I say
on his way home, he had a wife, a child,
is a family man, and he had a plane ticket
in his pocket on his way home. And then he
did this right.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Hey, honoring those who went above and beyond. It's medal
of honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Sorry I did something wrong. I should have explained this too.
Not only was he on his way home, but it
begins kind of after this starts. There's a company that's
being slaughtered by the Chinese in Korea, slaughtered slaughtered to
the point this infantry company is down to I think
(03:59):
about thirty five guys, and the thirty five guys. There's
practically nothing left of them. Burke could have easily just
cruised on by, but he couldn't stomach watching his guys
be decimated. Now let's do that again.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal of
Honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Leslie Burke from Arkansas County, Arkansas. First Lieutenant Burke distinguished
himself by conspicuous gallantry and outstanding courage above and beyond
the call of duty against the enemy. Intense enemy fire
had pinned down leading elements of his company committed to
securing commanding ground when First Lieutenant Burke left the command
(04:48):
post to rally and urge the men to follow him
toward three bunkers impeding the advance. Dashing they're charging up
a hill. Okay, it's called Hill two hundred, don't worry
about that. But they're trying to get up a hill.
They're dying. Dashing to an exposed vantage point. He threw
several grenades at the bunkers, then, returning for an M
(05:09):
one rifle and adapter, he made a loan assault, wiping
out the position and killing the crew. Closing on the
center bunker, he lobbed grenades through the opening and with
his pistol killed three of its occupants, attempting to surround
him by the way, he shot all three in the forehead.
Ordering his men forward, he charged the third emplacement, catching
(05:34):
several grenades in mid air and hurling them back at
the enemy. Inspired by his display of valor, his men
stormed forward, overran the hostile position, but were again pinned
down by increased fire. Securing a light machine gun and
three boxes of ammunition, First Lieutenant Burke dashed through the
(05:59):
impact air to an open knoll, set up his gun.
Stop you don't have to stop it, Chris. But he
peeked over this knoll and saw there was a trench
full of Chinese troops. That's when he ran back down
to get the gun with a bunch of ammo, and
went and set it up anyway. First Lieutenant Burke dashed
through the impact area to an open knoll, set up
(06:21):
his gun, and poured crippling fire into the ranks of
the enemy, killing approximately seventy five. Although wounded, he ordered
for more ammunition, reloading and destroying two mortar emplacements and
a machine gun position with accurate fire. I should note
at this point in time the barrel of his machine
(06:43):
gun is scorching hot and you really can't grab it.
So he wrapped I believe it was a piece of
wet cloth around it, and then did this, cradling the
weapon in his arms. He then led his men forward,
killing some twenty five more of the treating enemy and
securing the objective. First Lieutenant Burke's heroic action and daring
(07:06):
exploits inspired his small force of thirty five troops. His
unflinching courage and outstanding leadership reflect the highest credit upon himself,
the infantry, and the US Army. He thought he was
going to die, didn't you when I told you he
was going home to his wife. See, Chris thought he
was going to die. Don't be such a cynic, Chris.
He did not die. And just a couple more words
(07:31):
on Korea. I want to move on. So we have
so much we have to talk about it. I'm not
gonna do a bunch of history and stuff like that.
If you start reading books about Korea, and you should,
and there's so many great ones out there, so many
great ones. Remember this is pretty close after World War Two,
and it will strike you when you start reading about Korea.
(07:54):
How many guys, how many of the Lions of Korea
were guys just like Burke. Burke was in World War Two.
The World War Two salty vett who went and saw
more horrible blood and guts than any one human being
should oftentimes would volunteer to go back and fight in Korea.
(08:19):
And they would walk into Korea, these guys, and they
were just studs. They were just There are so many
story stories of these Korean guys who fought in World
War Two and you could tell that dude, he's just
a warrior now' that's what he is. And it's awesome,
(08:41):
but it has also saddened me every single time I
read about it. When you got a guy who survived
World War Two and he comes back and he dies
in Korea, I know, it's always like all that death
is always sad, right, you never stand up in cheer
wooh he died. It's always it's always sad when we
lose our best and our brightest and our bravest. It's horrible.
(09:03):
But there's just I don't know, he got out right,
he did it, and he never had a thing to
prove to anyone else. You survived World War two and
you're victorious, and you come home. You don't have anything
to do but bragg the pretty girls the rest of
your life until you find one to marry. Hey, I
thought it. You just life's fine, Right, You're finally you're
(09:24):
you're safe. You're back in Arkansas. You're burke, You're back
in Arkansas. Go enjoy yourself. But America needed them again,
and they stepped up and went back and fought in
some of the most vicious, miserable fighting. Outnumbered the entire time,
(09:45):
especially once the well not the entire once the Chinese
got involved. We were always out numbered in that place.
We were always fighting the elements in that place. The
frost bite, the misery at the leadership at our highest
levels was just putrid. That was why MacArthur got relieved
at one point in time. Can you imagine how bad
(10:06):
does it have to be for Douglas MacArthur, American hero,
not my favorite guy, but Douglas MacArthur gets relieved of
his command. Is how bad it was. And those lions
just went and did it. I've always admired it. I
think it's awesome. All right, let's talk about this hoothy stuff.
We're going to talk about the most discriminated group in
(10:26):
America and so much more still to come in. Yes,
I'm gonna get to emails and things. Before I get
to that, let me talk to you about my meat.
Don't why you shake your head, Chris? Is it because
my meat's superior to yours? It's okay, you can be honest.
I have an IQ Sense, And if memory serves me,
(10:49):
you don't have an IQ sense, do you, Chris? You
know you can make perfect brisket every time, perfect chicken
every time, perfect steak every time. Even Chris can do it.
Everyone can because iq sense is a wireless cooking thermometer
created by Chefman. You put it in, you know, just
like any other meat thermometer, except you put it in
(11:11):
right at the beginning, and then when you put it
on the grill we're in the oven or on the smoker.
I use mine mainly on my smoker. You leave it
in and it connects to the app on your phone,
and you always know what the temperature is, and you
can even set the desired temperature on it, and it'll
tell you when it's done. You don't even have to look.
You'd sit there, go watch TV and your phone will
(11:32):
let you know, Hey, Britz gets done. Perfect every time
because you're cooking to temperature every single time. You can't

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Miss something.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
There's a podcast.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Get it on demand wherever podcasts are found. The Jesse
Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday. Member.
If you miss any part of the show, you can
download the whole thing on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes. Before we
get to the hoo Thies, the people were shooting missiles
at right now in the Red Sea. It's time to
have a discussion about discrimination, which is not something I
(12:23):
talk about a lot on the show, but there was
an incident over the weekend. It brought it up again.
Now it's fresh in my mind and I'm angry and
I need to be heard. So just bear with me
a moment, and we're going to talk about discrimination and
how disgusting it is. You see, I had to go
(12:46):
to Florida in this weekend. It was Saturday. It was
for business, not pleasure. I couldn't even bring ob and
the boys. It was quick trip. We go out to
dinner on Saturday night, super Fans. It was by the
water though. It was nice, but it was just cheeseburger joint.
And this cheeseburger joint, they had a cheeseburger that had
(13:09):
beer cheese on it. I like a good beer cheese,
and like any red blooded American, I ordered the beer cheeseburger.
But I assumed naturally that it was going to come
with a shortage of beer cheese, if you will. And
plus it came with fries, so I wanted to dip
(13:30):
those in some beer cheese as well, especially if the
beer cheese is legit. So I told the waiter, I said, Hey,
I want the cheeseburger. Please hold the lettuce and tomato.
By the way, I'm tired of having to do that,
but once again, lettuce and tomato, beer cheeseburger. Hold the
lettuce and tomato, and I'd like an extra side of
the beer cheese. Guy says, Okay, writes it down. I
(13:56):
watched him write it down. I watched him write down
the extra beer cheese. We wait for a while. It'll
be half hour forty five minutes. Burger came. You think
it had the beer cheese with it, the extra beer cheese.
Of course, not of course, not me. I love sauces,
(14:20):
all sauces. It doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter what
it is. It's not just you know, ranch or this
or that. When I'm when I'm in a place, especially
if I get fries or something, I usually will ask
the weight or waitress, or I'll look at the menu,
did you have like a sauce. I don't care look
at it if it's a barbecue sauce or some sort
of a good hot sauce, or I want a sauce.
I'm gonna I want to I want to dip my
fries or something like that in a sauce. I'm a
(14:42):
sauce man, and I ask for a side of sauce
all the time. Never comes. It doesn't matter that maybe
you're thinking this restaurant wasn't high end enough. I asked
for a side of sauce, no matter where I'm ordering,
(15:05):
and nine out of ten times at least it might
be greater than that. It might be ninety five out
of one hundred, they do not bring the sauce when
they bring the meal sauce. People like me are the
most discriminated against group in the United States of America.
(15:26):
What Chris, It's true, it's and honestly, we had this
discussion at dinner, and I might do it. I swear
on my life I might do it. It's not going
to be soon, and I'll have to figure it out.
I am considering going undercover as a customer in various
restaurants in recording it, just to get to the bottom
(15:49):
of why don't you bring me my sauce? Do you
think when I asked for the ranch? When I asked
for the ranch, did you think I was kidding? Do
you think it was just kind of a not important
because you don't like it? Or maybe it's not the waiter.
Maybe it's not the waitress. Maybe is it the chef,
(16:11):
But that wouldn't make sense because I wouldn't think the
chef would be in charge of the side of the sauce.
Maybe there's some sort of a manager or assistant. Is
somebody blocking you from bringing me my sauce? Does the
sauce cost money? Is that it is that?
Speaker 1 (16:25):
It?
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Is it a money thing? I'll pay for my sauce
on my life. You want to throw fifty nine cents
or something like that on there to bring me aside
a barbecue, I'll pay fifty nine cents. I always keep
spare change in my car. All I want is my sauce.
And I don't understand why you won't bring it to me.
I've asked, and I've asked, I've begged, and maybe you
think I haven't been emphatic enough. You don't understand. I've
(16:47):
actually stopped them before, when my temper reaches peak level,
I've stopped them before and said, okay, So just so
you know, I really do want that blue cheese. Okay,
So I really do. I want the blue cheese, and
get this, I swear on my life. The next morning,
we had another quick business meeting before we flew home.
(17:07):
I flew home yesterday. We had a meeting in my
buddy's room and we didn't have time. We were running
through things and we had to order room service. And
I ordered room service, and I ordered it, and I
got chicken wings, and I asked for blue cheese. In fact,
I asked for extra blue cheese. Oh, just to confirm,
she even read it back to me. Blue cheese, extra
(17:30):
blue cheese. The order shows up. They didn't bring one,
not a single one, and they do the same thing
they do in the restaurant. Oh, did you want blue cheese?
I'll go back for that. And there I sit for
twenty freaking minutes while the chicken wings get old, get
cold with no blue cheese. Why won't you bring me
(17:51):
my sauce? All I want is some sauce. I'm not
asking for the world. I'll pay what Chris? What is?
Chris said he didn't realize discrimination was so ugly? Would
now you know? Powe? Now you know? Now you know
what it's like to be a minority. Okay, now you
know what it's like to be treated like a second
(18:12):
class citizen. If you're a sauce person in this country,
you have been discriminated against unfairly. And I'm here to
tell you. I can't promise you the world. I'm gonna
fight for you, all right, all right, let's talk about
the hooties next.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Feeling a little stocky, follow like and subscribe on social
at Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
It is the Jesse Kellyshow dot com. The Jesse Kellyshow

It's my favorite website. It's the Jesse Kelly Show on
a Monday. Remember you can email the show Jesse at
Jesse kellyshow dot com. I'll get to those emails in
(19:00):
a moment. And by the way, Chris, what have I
told you about playing Cream? About playing Cream sucks? It
doesn't make sense that Cream sucks because you took these
wonderful musicians and you combine them in one group. But
that song Sunshine of Your Love sucks, Chris, it does,
It does not. You don't I have time for you
right now. I'm gonna talk about the Hooties or who
(19:21):
Thies or that. I don't care how you say their
stupid name. So here's what's happening Yemen. It's this god
forsaken dump. Don't worry about it. You don't ever want
to go there. Just know that it is probably the
terror hotbed of the world. There is so much Islamist
(19:43):
activity there. I mean radical jihad types, not talking about
just regular run of the mill Islam. I'm talking jihad
hardcore types. You have a sea of poverty stricken young
men who are ripe to be recruited into that kind
of hateful nonsense. It's it's all bad, It's all really,
really really bad. And there's this group there called the Houties.
(20:07):
Now they are backed by Iran. So remember that that's
going to be important for the purpose of our conversation here,
just to kind of explain what's going on and why
it's going on. They have been doing what they do
for a very long time. You probably you'd call them
(20:28):
a terror group, and they are. I mean they are,
but I want to make sure I clarify there there
are different types of terror groups out there. Meaning isis
is going to send guys into Europe wearing a suicide vest.
That's the way it's going to be. Al Qaeda. Look,
I don't have to tell anybody in America al Kada
is going to send their troops abroad to go do
(20:51):
horrible evil things like like the towers and things like that.
That's there are terror groups like that. But then there
are other more more regional groups or groups that are
focused on different things. Hamas actually is a good example
of this. Now, yes they're ravenous dirt balls, but they
really kind of stick mostly over there. The Hutis are
(21:13):
just like this. Now, they hate Israel and they hate America.
It's part of their public statement in case you're wondering
they hate us. That's just what they believe. Only they've
taken that hatred in recent years and they've caused incredible
problems for established, legitimate countries like us. They're attacking shipping lanes.
(21:42):
Now here's where we have to pause for a moment,
because it's oftentimes very, very difficult to make people understand that.
And I'm not saying that I have some unique knowledge
on it. But what I have is this old man
fascination with shipping. So let's pause for a Don't shake
your head, Chris, I can't help myself. I find shipping
(22:06):
modern and ancient. I find it to be endlessly fascinating.
You're lucky. You know how you like when I do history. Well,
half of you do, half of you despise it, but
you know how you like when I do history. You
are lucky that I have never done a serious, hour long,
two hour long history thing on shipping, because I would.
I only don't be for your sake. You should know
(22:28):
that I only don't for your sake. I find it
fascinating how goods are produced in one country and then
they're shipped to other countries. I've always found it fascinating,
and we could go all the way back to sailing ships.
How they had to play the currents and they were
trying to find different routes, and the Horn of Africa.
(22:50):
You've got Magellan and Columbus in the age of Exploration,
and so much of that stuff was simply about shipping.
Hey we make this here, we want to ship there.
Hey we want that thing they have there and we
want to ship it here. I find shipping to be fascinating.
And it's not just the ship portion, which I love,
the logistical portion of it. I just mentioned we were
(23:12):
down in Florida, and Florida obviously it's on the water
where we were, and they have these gigantic crane like
things that are made to load and unload these huge
boxes onto the container ships. Is this not the nerdiest,
most olbient thing. I could sit and watch that all day.
I think it's so fascinating they load and just the
(23:32):
goods and services and logistics moving back and forth. I
find it fascinating. Okay, So anyway, I only set all
that to try to explain it's not a small deal.
If the few shipping lanes on a planet, if any
one of the few are shut down. It is a
(23:52):
monumentally big deal. And until you understand how many ships
are going to and fro, you can't really understand why
it's such a big deal. And when you look at
the various shipping lanes, it's part of the reason Trump
wants the Panama Canal back. You realize that we built it.
But it's more than just that. The Panama Canal was
(24:15):
built because we need it a way through. Otherwise you're
going around South America all the way down and around.
So we built it, and now that critical route through
the freaking Chinese control it. You can go look at
the signs. There's freaking Mandarin printed on the signs down there.
Did you know that's what chap's Donald Trump, We built it,
(24:37):
and you handed it to the Chinese, No, sir. So anyway,
shipping matters a lot, and shipping lanes matter a lot.
The hooties know this. Really, anybody who's kind of boned
up on any of that stuff they know this. And
so they have four years focused on destroying shipping through
(24:58):
the Red Sea. Now this has already cost American lives.
They're not I don't want you to think of these
people as if they're Somali pirates though. That's where some
of the confusion comes in. These people are not dirt
balls on rubber rafts and rusted AK forty seven's cruising
(25:19):
up to a cargo ship. You know, this is not
it's not that at all, because they are backed by Iran,
because they are backed by a modern military Iran. It's
I mean, it's modern. It's not ours, but it's modern.
They have missiles, nice ones, capable ones. They have drones,
(25:42):
lots of them, and they're getting more. They have shut
down much of the shipping through the Red Sea. Trump
administration gets into office and they had to reverse yet
another thing the moronic Biden administration did the illustration got
into office knowing what the Huthis were, and they took
(26:04):
them off the highest level of being a terrorist group,
of global terrorist group. Almost immediately they took them off.
It's just it doesn't make any sense, but they did it.
Trump gets in, puts them right back on. That gives them,
gives us the justification for what started over the weekend
and what is ongoing as we speak. There are probably
(26:27):
things being blown up. The United States of America has really,
for lack of a better way to put it, declared
war on this terrorist group, and we are currently bombing
them to smithereens Now, I kind of gave you that
whole rundown of the story just to say this. If
(26:50):
you were somebody who was concerned about the military industrial complex,
stand in mind, so am I. If you are somebody
who is concerned that we always seem to find a
justification to bomb somebody which keeps the military industrial complex
in the money, I'm concerned as well. I share those
(27:12):
concerns of yours. I do, however, protecting the shipping interests
of the United States of America. It's actually one of
the most important jobs of the United States Navy. Did
you know that? That's like half the reason the founders
were so emphatic about having a good navy. That's why
(27:36):
you want a great navy. It's not just to fight
wars against other countries. You protect your shipping, You protect
the economics of your country. All I'm gonna say, and
we're gonna do some emails. You could argue that using
our troops, our navy to fight back against people threatening
(27:58):
our shipping is the most justified military action this country's
taken in two decades. You could argue it. All right,
all right, we'll do some emailos before we get to
this Biden auto pen signature stuff for the Pardons and
everything else. Before we get to those things, let's talk
about Pure Talk for a moment. Speaking of the troops,
(28:23):
you know when pure Talk gives back because they do. Yeah,
all these co all corporations give back. And you can
tell everything about a corporation by who they give to.
If you have Verizon AT and T or T Mobile,
I would encourage you, don't take my word for anything.
Go look up the causes those companies give to. Then
(28:44):
go look up Pure Talk and tell me if you
think you should switch. They're on the same five G
network and they give back to veterans, getting vets back
on their feet. They're so American, they hire Americans. It's cake.
To switch. Takes ten minutes. You keep your phone, keep
your number or get a new one dial pound two
(29:05):
five zero and say Jesse Kelly. Take you ten minutes.
It's cake, pound two five zero, Say Jesse Kelly. We'll
be back.

I'm not sure, by the way, we did Medal of
Honor Monday about an hour ago, in case you missed it.
I'm not sure how I feel about what I did.
I've always been hesitant to do what I did tonight
(29:43):
for Medal of Honor Monday, and that is Chris, tell
me what you think about it, Corey, tell me what
you think about it. I kept stopping in the middle
of it to give context because I want to be
able to I want to be able to tell it
the way it should be told. But it almost feels
like maybe it was disrespectful to stop in the middle
(30:03):
of it, and that's why I've never done it. But
this time like they were missing key plot points. What, Chris,
what I think I should stick with telling it after
the Medal of Honor. Yeah, I think you're right. I
don't think I'll do that again. But then then I'm
telling it after and then you missed it the whole
time I've had had it doesn't make it more impressive.
(30:28):
Then you have to go back and remember the story
that I just told, and you're trying to remember what.
I don't know. I'm gonna bat that around. I can't
decide it my only concern. I'm not worried about it
being your good radio or whatnot. I know it's great radio.
Quit Chris. I'm just concerned about being disrespectful. That's my thing.
I don't want it to be disrespectful by screwing up
(30:49):
the citation whatever. Maybe they shouldn't screw up the citation.
Tell us more what the dude did. Hey, Jesse, I'm
big into Roman history like you. I heard you summarizing
France's time history on your show. You did mention the Franks,
but I was surprised you didn't mention the Gauls. In fact,
France was called Gaul before it took the name France.
(31:10):
Gaul was one of Rome's greatest enemies for a long time.
It's been said what Caesar did to Gaul would make
Hitler blush in terms of the massacre as Caesar did.
I hope you can go into some more history today.
Love listening to the show while I'm driving to work.
Take care. Okay, So I guess because he's right. When
I was talking about France's military history, I did not
(31:33):
bring up Gallic France. I did not bring up Gaul.
And I'm not sure how I feel about that, because
I had a reason, and I'll just explain to you
my reasoning. Do you consider Gaul to be part of
the nation of France, meaning the nation state? Well, let
(31:57):
me ask you next year, twenty twenty six, do you
consider that to be the two hundred and fiftieth birthday
of America? As most people do? The Indians were here,
really cool Indian tribes were here and tough ones all
over the country man, from the Iroquois to the Comanche.
(32:20):
Did the crowd look more than I can? It's really
cool tribe. Let the Pueblo. They were here. Do we
consider that. It's not that I'm calling them an American,
but we don't call you know, Okay, let's talk about
that the Commanche and the Apache. The Apache are mainly
known for being further west, places like you know, Arizona,
(32:40):
places like that. Well, the Apache were in Texas until
the Comanche, bigger and tougher, fought them out. Comanche were
a very powerful tribe. Would you consider the pre establishment
of American commanche part of America's military Harry history, And
(33:02):
if you did, I'm not judging you, by the way.
If you did, but I don't think I would, because
we weren't a country yet. We weren't officially a country yet.
There were different tribes you mentioned, Gallic France, Gaul. What
Gaul was the furthest thing away from United There were
all kinds of different tribes with different customs. In fact,
(33:22):
that's part of how Caesar was able to take it
when he was far far outnumbered by the total number
of troops in Gaul. He was always outnumbered, but he
was able to exploit this tribe and its hatred of
that tribe and get some on his side and some
who hated him, and some here and some there. I'm
(33:43):
only explaining my reasoning, but I'm also not saying I'm right.
You know so much of history as in the eye
of the beholder. I wouldn't consider Gallic France to be
France quite yet. But then again, I guess if I'm
gonna consider the France that wasn't quite franch yet either,
it was just send it up. You decide, I mean,
(34:07):
you decide for yourself. I'm not saying you decide for me,
but that's my reasoning. I'm not saying why you do.
Back to his actual subject though, remember this, the American
Left has, in their effort to destroy and be smirch
everything about America. The American left pretends as if, starting
(34:29):
with Christopher Columbus and moving right along, as if America
is the only place that has subjected tribal peoples the
entire world, every last tidbit of it. There were tribal
peoples who were then subjected conquered by a more powerful,
(34:51):
more sophisticated country. In Australia, they had the Aborigines. Yeah,
I get it. Doesn't skin color or religion or whatever,
none of these things about at all.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I know your college professor told you that the saintly
Native Americans they were the only ones who were repressed,
but these evil, evil Americans. But that's not true at all.
That's the entire history of the world. Australia had theirs,
Japan had there, So did you know that. You know,
part of the reason Samurais have that cool looking armor
they have is because they were fighting these tribal peoples
(35:24):
who were tough as nails and they're having a hard
time getting their hands on them because they couldn't ride
horses as well as they could as well as the
tribal peoples could, and they had to adapt. China had
to hack it out from tribal peoples, Russia had to
hack it out from tribal people's gaul. The UK thought,
the UK of Britain, the England has sick ones. Well
(35:45):
they had amazing ones back then, wild ones. You know
all that King Arthur's stuff, which I realized is a legend,
but it's all. They were all tribal peoples who were
not unified enough and technologically advanced enough to stop a
more powerful, more technologically advanced country from coming in and
(36:07):
taking what they have. And as one little dark note
before we move on to Joe Biden's fake signatures, that
future awaits us all one day. It's just how the
world works. There will be a day. It won't be
for a long time, you won't be alive for it,
but there will be a day when we are so
broken down, rotted out that some bigger, tougher country is
(36:29):
going to come in here and they're going to take
this place from us. That's how the world works. Anyway,
on that sunny note, What are you doing to protect
the memories in your life? You know, there are a
few things as sad as a house fire or a flood,
(36:51):
and it's never about the couch. Have you ever talked
to somebody gone through this? I have many times before
we had that horrible flooding down here. You ever talk
to somebody they never sitting. Try about the TV? Why not?
The TV was expensive? Every single one of them. Talk
about the pictures. That was our wedding album. Jesse, it's gone.
Can't ever get it back, h Jesse. That was the
(37:11):
only picture I had with my great grandpa. Now it's gone.
I can't get it back. Stop taking chances with those
old VHS tapes of your family with your wedding album.
Stop taking those chances and let Legacy Box digitize that
stuff for you. They make it easy. This is an
(37:32):
American company, American jobs. You're not sending your stuff to China.
You're sending it to Tennessee. They'll digitize it and send
you the originals back, of course, and then fire or
no fire, flood or no flood. Your stuff is there
Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. That's legacybox dot com, slash Jesse,
(37:55):
We'll be back.
This is the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The
Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday. We're talking
about all kinds of things. We just talked about immigration,
but I still have to get to We're gonna talk
about the houthy, the people we're shooting missiles at right now,
and what's going on there in the Red Sea. I
have to discuss the most discriminated people, the people that
(00:37):
are most discriminated against in the United States of America.
I'll explain who that is. Donald Trump says, the pardons,
Joe Biden signed, or Noll and Void. Will discuss all
that the Democrats are crazy and so much more coming
up on The Jesse Kelly Show. But you know what
time it is. It is our two on Monday. The
(00:59):
start of our two on Monday means we are about
to do Medal of Honor Monday for you new listeners.
We just take a Medal of Honor citation and we
read it. That's it, nothing special about it. You can
do it at home, you can do it with you
can do it at your work, do it with your class,
your sports team, everybody likes to hear these stories everybody,
(01:23):
and it's important that we hear these stories. It's one
of those rare things that not only is it good,
it's good for you, unlike vegetables, which are disgusting, but
they're good for you. You understand what I mean. It's healthy.
We want to hold these people up, hold their deeds up.
We should remember these names. This one I'm about to
read here. Honestly, I don't know how it's not a movie.
(01:47):
I'm really floored that it's not a movie. But it's
not a movie. And that remind you of Let me
remind you of this before I read the Medal of
Honor citation for a Leslie Burke. Officially his name is
Lloyd Leslie Scooter Burke, but they called him Leslie Burke. Remember,
if you know a Korean War veteran, those guys are
(02:09):
starting to get old too. But if you know a
Korean War veteran, I realized that war doesn't get all
the play of World War Two. Of course, nothing does.
It doesn't even get near the play of Vietnam. I
get that too. If you know a Korean War veteran,
that person very likely has seen some things and been
(02:30):
through some things on behalf of his country. The last
time I watched a Korean War documentary, and I've seen several,
virtually every one of the old timers they had on there.
When he'd start talking with his hands hands, you'd realize,
oh wow, he doesn't have fingers on that hand. Oh look,
this guy lost his nose. Korean War guys saw some things,
(02:55):
and this dude here is something special. Before I read it.
I wanted to let you know this before Leslie Burke
did what I'm about to explain to you.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
He did.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
He was on his way home. And when I say
on his way home, he had a wife, a child,
is a family man, and he had a plane ticket
in his pocket on his way home. And then he
did this right.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Hey, honoring those who went above and beyond. It's medal
of honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Sorry I did something wrong. I should have explained this too.
Not only was he on his way home, but it
begins kind of after this starts. There's a company that's
being slaughtered by the Chinese in Korea, slaughtered slaughtered to
the point this infantry company is down to I think
(03:59):
about thirty five guys, and the thirty five guys. There's
practically nothing left of them. Burke could have easily just
cruised on by, but he couldn't stomach watching his guys
be decimated. Now let's do that again.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal of
Honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Leslie Burke from Arkansas County, Arkansas. First Lieutenant Burke distinguished
himself by conspicuous gallantry and outstanding courage above and beyond
the call of duty against the enemy. Intense enemy fire
had pinned down leading elements of his company committed to
securing commanding ground when First Lieutenant Burke left the command
(04:48):
post to rally and urge the men to follow him
toward three bunkers impeding the advance. Dashing they're charging up
a hill. Okay, it's called Hill two hundred, don't worry
about that. But they're trying to get up a hill.
They're dying. Dashing to an exposed vantage point. He threw
several grenades at the bunkers, then, returning for an M
(05:09):
one rifle and adapter, he made a loan assault, wiping
out the position and killing the crew. Closing on the
center bunker, he lobbed grenades through the opening and with
his pistol killed three of its occupants, attempting to surround
him by the way, he shot all three in the forehead.
Ordering his men forward, he charged the third emplacement, catching
(05:34):
several grenades in mid air and hurling them back at
the enemy. Inspired by his display of valor, his men
stormed forward, overran the hostile position, but were again pinned
down by increased fire. Securing a light machine gun and
three boxes of ammunition, First Lieutenant Burke dashed through the
(05:59):
impact air to an open knoll, set up his gun.
Stop you don't have to stop it, Chris. But he
peeked over this knoll and saw there was a trench
full of Chinese troops. That's when he ran back down
to get the gun with a bunch of ammo, and
went and set it up anyway. First Lieutenant Burke dashed
through the impact area to an open knoll, set up
(06:21):
his gun, and poured crippling fire into the ranks of
the enemy, killing approximately seventy five. Although wounded, he ordered
for more ammunition, reloading and destroying two mortar emplacements and
a machine gun position with accurate fire. I should note
at this point in time the barrel of his machine
(06:43):
gun is scorching hot and you really can't grab it.
So he wrapped I believe it was a piece of
wet cloth around it, and then did this, cradling the
weapon in his arms. He then led his men forward,
killing some twenty five more of the treating enemy and
securing the objective. First Lieutenant Burke's heroic action and daring
(07:06):
exploits inspired his small force of thirty five troops. His
unflinching courage and outstanding leadership reflect the highest credit upon himself,
the infantry, and the US Army. He thought he was
going to die, didn't you when I told you he
was going home to his wife. See, Chris thought he
was going to die. Don't be such a cynic, Chris.
He did not die. And just a couple more words
(07:31):
on Korea. I want to move on. So we have
so much we have to talk about it. I'm not
gonna do a bunch of history and stuff like that.
If you start reading books about Korea, and you should,
and there's so many great ones out there, so many
great ones. Remember this is pretty close after World War Two,
and it will strike you when you start reading about Korea.
(07:54):
How many guys, how many of the Lions of Korea
were guys just like Burke. Burke was in World War Two.
The World War Two salty vett who went and saw
more horrible blood and guts than any one human being
should oftentimes would volunteer to go back and fight in Korea.
(08:19):
And they would walk into Korea, these guys, and they
were just studs. They were just There are so many
story stories of these Korean guys who fought in World
War Two and you could tell that dude, he's just
a warrior now' that's what he is. And it's awesome,
(08:41):
but it has also saddened me every single time I
read about it. When you got a guy who survived
World War Two and he comes back and he dies
in Korea, I know, it's always like all that death
is always sad, right, you never stand up in cheer
wooh he died. It's always it's always sad when we
lose our best and our brightest and our bravest. It's horrible.
(09:03):
But there's just I don't know, he got out right,
he did it, and he never had a thing to
prove to anyone else. You survived World War two and
you're victorious, and you come home. You don't have anything
to do but bragg the pretty girls the rest of
your life until you find one to marry. Hey, I
thought it. You just life's fine, Right, You're finally you're
(09:24):
you're safe. You're back in Arkansas. You're burke, You're back
in Arkansas. Go enjoy yourself. But America needed them again,
and they stepped up and went back and fought in
some of the most vicious, miserable fighting. Outnumbered the entire time,
(09:45):
especially once the well not the entire once the Chinese
got involved. We were always out numbered in that place.
We were always fighting the elements in that place. The
frost bite, the misery at the leadership at our highest
levels was just putrid. That was why MacArthur got relieved
at one point in time. Can you imagine how bad
(10:06):
does it have to be for Douglas MacArthur, American hero,
not my favorite guy, but Douglas MacArthur gets relieved of
his command. Is how bad it was. And those lions
just went and did it. I've always admired it. I
think it's awesome. All right, let's talk about this hoothy stuff.
We're going to talk about the most discriminated group in
(10:26):
America and so much more still to come in. Yes,
I'm gonna get to emails and things. Before I get
to that, let me talk to you about my meat.
Don't why you shake your head, Chris? Is it because
my meat's superior to yours? It's okay, you can be honest.
I have an IQ Sense, And if memory serves me,
(10:49):
you don't have an IQ sense, do you, Chris? You
know you can make perfect brisket every time, perfect chicken
every time, perfect steak every time. Even Chris can do it.
Everyone can because iq sense is a wireless cooking thermometer
created by Chefman. You put it in, you know, just
like any other meat thermometer, except you put it in
(11:11):
right at the beginning, and then when you put it
on the grill we're in the oven or on the smoker.
I use mine mainly on my smoker. You leave it
in and it connects to the app on your phone,
and you always know what the temperature is, and you
can even set the desired temperature on it, and it'll
tell you when it's done. You don't even have to look.
You'd sit there, go watch TV and your phone will
(11:32):
let you know, Hey, Britz gets done. Perfect every time
because you're cooking to temperature every single time. You can't

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Miss something.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
There's a podcast.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Get it on demand wherever podcasts are found. The Jesse
Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday. Member.
If you miss any part of the show, you can
download the whole thing on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes. Before we
get to the hoo Thies, the people were shooting missiles
at right now in the Red Sea. It's time to
have a discussion about discrimination, which is not something I
(12:23):
talk about a lot on the show, but there was
an incident over the weekend. It brought it up again.
Now it's fresh in my mind and I'm angry and
I need to be heard. So just bear with me
a moment, and we're going to talk about discrimination and
how disgusting it is. You see, I had to go
(12:46):
to Florida in this weekend. It was Saturday. It was
for business, not pleasure. I couldn't even bring ob and
the boys. It was quick trip. We go out to
dinner on Saturday night, super Fans. It was by the
water though. It was nice, but it was just cheeseburger joint.
And this cheeseburger joint, they had a cheeseburger that had
(13:09):
beer cheese on it. I like a good beer cheese,
and like any red blooded American, I ordered the beer cheeseburger.
But I assumed naturally that it was going to come
with a shortage of beer cheese, if you will. And
plus it came with fries, so I wanted to dip
(13:30):
those in some beer cheese as well, especially if the
beer cheese is legit. So I told the waiter, I said, Hey,
I want the cheeseburger. Please hold the lettuce and tomato.
By the way, I'm tired of having to do that,
but once again, lettuce and tomato, beer cheeseburger. Hold the
lettuce and tomato, and I'd like an extra side of
the beer cheese. Guy says, Okay, writes it down. I
(13:56):
watched him write it down. I watched him write down
the extra beer cheese. We wait for a while. It'll
be half hour forty five minutes. Burger came. You think
it had the beer cheese with it, the extra beer cheese.
Of course, not of course, not me. I love sauces,
(14:20):
all sauces. It doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter what
it is. It's not just you know, ranch or this
or that. When I'm when I'm in a place, especially
if I get fries or something, I usually will ask
the weight or waitress, or I'll look at the menu,
did you have like a sauce. I don't care look
at it if it's a barbecue sauce or some sort
of a good hot sauce, or I want a sauce.
I'm gonna I want to I want to dip my
fries or something like that in a sauce. I'm a
(14:42):
sauce man, and I ask for a side of sauce
all the time. Never comes. It doesn't matter that maybe
you're thinking this restaurant wasn't high end enough. I asked
for a side of sauce, no matter where I'm ordering,
(15:05):
and nine out of ten times at least it might
be greater than that. It might be ninety five out
of one hundred, they do not bring the sauce when
they bring the meal sauce. People like me are the
most discriminated against group in the United States of America.
(15:26):
What Chris, It's true, it's and honestly, we had this
discussion at dinner, and I might do it. I swear
on my life I might do it. It's not going
to be soon, and I'll have to figure it out.
I am considering going undercover as a customer in various
restaurants in recording it, just to get to the bottom
(15:49):
of why don't you bring me my sauce? Do you
think when I asked for the ranch? When I asked
for the ranch, did you think I was kidding? Do
you think it was just kind of a not important
because you don't like it? Or maybe it's not the waiter.
Maybe it's not the waitress. Maybe is it the chef,
(16:11):
But that wouldn't make sense because I wouldn't think the
chef would be in charge of the side of the sauce.
Maybe there's some sort of a manager or assistant. Is
somebody blocking you from bringing me my sauce? Does the
sauce cost money? Is that it is that?
Speaker 1 (16:25):
It?
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Is it a money thing? I'll pay for my sauce
on my life. You want to throw fifty nine cents
or something like that on there to bring me aside
a barbecue, I'll pay fifty nine cents. I always keep
spare change in my car. All I want is my sauce.
And I don't understand why you won't bring it to me.
I've asked, and I've asked, I've begged, and maybe you
think I haven't been emphatic enough. You don't understand. I've
(16:47):
actually stopped them before, when my temper reaches peak level,
I've stopped them before and said, okay, So just so
you know, I really do want that blue cheese. Okay,
So I really do. I want the blue cheese, and
get this, I swear on my life. The next morning,
we had another quick business meeting before we flew home.
(17:07):
I flew home yesterday. We had a meeting in my
buddy's room and we didn't have time. We were running
through things and we had to order room service. And
I ordered room service, and I ordered it, and I
got chicken wings, and I asked for blue cheese. In fact,
I asked for extra blue cheese. Oh, just to confirm,
she even read it back to me. Blue cheese, extra
(17:30):
blue cheese. The order shows up. They didn't bring one,
not a single one, and they do the same thing
they do in the restaurant. Oh, did you want blue cheese?
I'll go back for that. And there I sit for
twenty freaking minutes while the chicken wings get old, get
cold with no blue cheese. Why won't you bring me
(17:51):
my sauce? All I want is some sauce. I'm not
asking for the world. I'll pay what Chris? What is?
Chris said he didn't realize discrimination was so ugly? Would
now you know? Powe? Now you know? Now you know
what it's like to be a minority. Okay, now you
know what it's like to be treated like a second
(18:12):
class citizen. If you're a sauce person in this country,
you have been discriminated against unfairly. And I'm here to
tell you. I can't promise you the world. I'm gonna
fight for you, all right, all right, let's talk about
the hooties next.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Feeling a little stocky, follow like and subscribe on social
at Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
It is the Jesse Kellyshow dot com. The Jesse Kellyshow
dot com. That's stupid, Although no, actually that's a great website.
It's my favorite website. It's the Jesse Kelly Show on
a Monday. Remember you can email the show Jesse at
Jesse kellyshow dot com. I'll get to those emails in
(19:00):
a moment. And by the way, Chris, what have I
told you about playing Cream? About playing Cream sucks? It
doesn't make sense that Cream sucks because you took these
wonderful musicians and you combine them in one group. But
that song Sunshine of Your Love sucks, Chris, it does,
It does not. You don't I have time for you
right now. I'm gonna talk about the Hooties or who
(19:21):
Thies or that. I don't care how you say their
stupid name. So here's what's happening Yemen. It's this god
forsaken dump. Don't worry about it. You don't ever want
to go there. Just know that it is probably the
terror hotbed of the world. There is so much Islamist
(19:43):
activity there. I mean radical jihad types, not talking about
just regular run of the mill Islam. I'm talking jihad
hardcore types. You have a sea of poverty stricken young
men who are ripe to be recruited into that kind
of hateful nonsense. It's it's all bad, It's all really,
really really bad. And there's this group there called the Houties.
(20:07):
Now they are backed by Iran. So remember that that's
going to be important for the purpose of our conversation here,
just to kind of explain what's going on and why
it's going on. They have been doing what they do
for a very long time. You probably you'd call them
(20:28):
a terror group, and they are. I mean they are,
but I want to make sure I clarify there there
are different types of terror groups out there. Meaning isis
is going to send guys into Europe wearing a suicide vest.
That's the way it's going to be. Al Qaeda. Look,
I don't have to tell anybody in America al Kada
is going to send their troops abroad to go do
(20:51):
horrible evil things like like the towers and things like that.
That's there are terror groups like that. But then there
are other more more regional groups or groups that are
focused on different things. Hamas actually is a good example
of this. Now, yes they're ravenous dirt balls, but they
really kind of stick mostly over there. The Hutis are
(21:13):
just like this. Now, they hate Israel and they hate America.
It's part of their public statement in case you're wondering
they hate us. That's just what they believe. Only they've
taken that hatred in recent years and they've caused incredible
problems for established, legitimate countries like us. They're attacking shipping lanes.
(21:42):
Now here's where we have to pause for a moment,
because it's oftentimes very, very difficult to make people understand that.
And I'm not saying that I have some unique knowledge
on it. But what I have is this old man
fascination with shipping. So let's pause for a Don't shake
your head, Chris, I can't help myself. I find shipping
(22:06):
modern and ancient. I find it to be endlessly fascinating.
You're lucky. You know how you like when I do history. Well,
half of you do, half of you despise it, but
you know how you like when I do history. You
are lucky that I have never done a serious, hour long,
two hour long history thing on shipping, because I would.
I only don't be for your sake. You should know
(22:28):
that I only don't for your sake. I find it
fascinating how goods are produced in one country and then
they're shipped to other countries. I've always found it fascinating,
and we could go all the way back to sailing ships.
How they had to play the currents and they were
trying to find different routes, and the Horn of Africa.
(22:50):
You've got Magellan and Columbus in the age of Exploration,
and so much of that stuff was simply about shipping.
Hey we make this here, we want to ship there.
Hey we want that thing they have there and we
want to ship it here. I find shipping to be fascinating.
And it's not just the ship portion, which I love,
the logistical portion of it. I just mentioned we were
(23:12):
down in Florida, and Florida obviously it's on the water
where we were, and they have these gigantic crane like
things that are made to load and unload these huge
boxes onto the container ships. Is this not the nerdiest,
most olbient thing. I could sit and watch that all day.
I think it's so fascinating they load and just the
(23:32):
goods and services and logistics moving back and forth. I
find it fascinating. Okay, So anyway, I only set all
that to try to explain it's not a small deal.
If the few shipping lanes on a planet, if any
one of the few are shut down. It is a
(23:52):
monumentally big deal. And until you understand how many ships
are going to and fro, you can't really understand why
it's such a big deal. And when you look at
the various shipping lanes, it's part of the reason Trump
wants the Panama Canal back. You realize that we built it.
But it's more than just that. The Panama Canal was
(24:15):
built because we need it a way through. Otherwise you're
going around South America all the way down and around.
So we built it, and now that critical route through
the freaking Chinese control it. You can go look at
the signs. There's freaking Mandarin printed on the signs down there.
Did you know that's what chap's Donald Trump, We built it,
(24:37):
and you handed it to the Chinese, No, sir. So anyway,
shipping matters a lot, and shipping lanes matter a lot.
The hooties know this. Really, anybody who's kind of boned
up on any of that stuff they know this. And
so they have four years focused on destroying shipping through
(24:58):
the Red Sea. Now this has already cost American lives.
They're not I don't want you to think of these
people as if they're Somali pirates though. That's where some
of the confusion comes in. These people are not dirt
balls on rubber rafts and rusted AK forty seven's cruising
(25:19):
up to a cargo ship. You know, this is not
it's not that at all, because they are backed by Iran,
because they are backed by a modern military Iran. It's
I mean, it's modern. It's not ours, but it's modern.
They have missiles, nice ones, capable ones. They have drones,
(25:42):
lots of them, and they're getting more. They have shut
down much of the shipping through the Red Sea. Trump
administration gets into office and they had to reverse yet
another thing the moronic Biden administration did the illustration got
into office knowing what the Huthis were, and they took
(26:04):
them off the highest level of being a terrorist group,
of global terrorist group. Almost immediately they took them off.
It's just it doesn't make any sense, but they did it.
Trump gets in, puts them right back on. That gives them,
gives us the justification for what started over the weekend
and what is ongoing as we speak. There are probably
(26:27):
things being blown up. The United States of America has really,
for lack of a better way to put it, declared
war on this terrorist group, and we are currently bombing
them to smithereens Now, I kind of gave you that
whole rundown of the story just to say this. If
(26:50):
you were somebody who was concerned about the military industrial complex,
stand in mind, so am I. If you are somebody
who is concerned that we always seem to find a
justification to bomb somebody which keeps the military industrial complex
in the money, I'm concerned as well. I share those
(27:12):
concerns of yours. I do, however, protecting the shipping interests
of the United States of America. It's actually one of
the most important jobs of the United States Navy. Did
you know that? That's like half the reason the founders
were so emphatic about having a good navy. That's why
(27:36):
you want a great navy. It's not just to fight
wars against other countries. You protect your shipping, You protect
the economics of your country. All I'm gonna say, and
we're gonna do some emails. You could argue that using
our troops, our navy to fight back against people threatening
(27:58):
our shipping is the most justified military action this country's
taken in two decades. You could argue it. All right,
all right, we'll do some emailos before we get to
this Biden auto pen signature stuff for the Pardons and
everything else. Before we get to those things, let's talk
about Pure Talk for a moment. Speaking of the troops,
(28:23):
you know when pure Talk gives back because they do. Yeah,
all these co all corporations give back. And you can
tell everything about a corporation by who they give to.
If you have Verizon AT and T or T Mobile,
I would encourage you, don't take my word for anything.
Go look up the causes those companies give to. Then
(28:44):
go look up Pure Talk and tell me if you
think you should switch. They're on the same five G
network and they give back to veterans, getting vets back
on their feet. They're so American, they hire Americans. It's cake.
To switch. Takes ten minutes. You keep your phone, keep
your number or get a new one dial pound two
(29:05):
five zero and say Jesse Kelly. Take you ten minutes.
It's cake, pound two five zero, Say Jesse Kelly. We'll
be back.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday.
It's been awesome. If you miss any part of the show,
he can download the whole thing on iHeart, Spotify iTunes.
I'm not sure, by the way, we did Medal of
Honor Monday about an hour ago, in case you missed it.
I'm not sure how I feel about what I did.
I've always been hesitant to do what I did tonight
(29:43):
for Medal of Honor Monday, and that is Chris, tell
me what you think about it, Corey, tell me what
you think about it. I kept stopping in the middle
of it to give context because I want to be
able to I want to be able to tell it
the way it should be told. But it almost feels
like maybe it was disrespectful to stop in the middle
(30:03):
of it, and that's why I've never done it. But
this time like they were missing key plot points. What, Chris,
what I think I should stick with telling it after
the Medal of Honor. Yeah, I think you're right. I
don't think I'll do that again. But then then I'm
telling it after and then you missed it the whole
time I've had had it doesn't make it more impressive.
(30:28):
Then you have to go back and remember the story
that I just told, and you're trying to remember what.
I don't know. I'm gonna bat that around. I can't
decide it my only concern. I'm not worried about it
being your good radio or whatnot. I know it's great radio.
Quit Chris. I'm just concerned about being disrespectful. That's my thing.
I don't want it to be disrespectful by screwing up
(30:49):
the citation whatever. Maybe they shouldn't screw up the citation.
Tell us more what the dude did. Hey, Jesse, I'm
big into Roman history like you. I heard you summarizing
France's time history on your show. You did mention the Franks,
but I was surprised you didn't mention the Gauls. In fact,
France was called Gaul before it took the name France.
(31:10):
Gaul was one of Rome's greatest enemies for a long time.
It's been said what Caesar did to Gaul would make
Hitler blush in terms of the massacre as Caesar did.
I hope you can go into some more history today.
Love listening to the show while I'm driving to work.
Take care. Okay, So I guess because he's right. When
I was talking about France's military history, I did not
(31:33):
bring up Gallic France. I did not bring up Gaul.
And I'm not sure how I feel about that, because
I had a reason, and I'll just explain to you
my reasoning. Do you consider Gaul to be part of
the nation of France, meaning the nation state? Well, let
(31:57):
me ask you next year, twenty twenty six, do you
consider that to be the two hundred and fiftieth birthday
of America? As most people do? The Indians were here,
really cool Indian tribes were here and tough ones all
over the country man, from the Iroquois to the Comanche.
(32:20):
Did the crowd look more than I can? It's really
cool tribe. Let the Pueblo. They were here. Do we
consider that. It's not that I'm calling them an American,
but we don't call you know, Okay, let's talk about
that the Commanche and the Apache. The Apache are mainly
known for being further west, places like you know, Arizona,
(32:40):
places like that. Well, the Apache were in Texas until
the Comanche, bigger and tougher, fought them out. Comanche were
a very powerful tribe. Would you consider the pre establishment
of American commanche part of America's military Harry history, And
(33:02):
if you did, I'm not judging you, by the way.
If you did, but I don't think I would, because
we weren't a country yet. We weren't officially a country yet.
There were different tribes you mentioned, Gallic France, Gaul. What
Gaul was the furthest thing away from United There were
all kinds of different tribes with different customs. In fact,
(33:22):
that's part of how Caesar was able to take it
when he was far far outnumbered by the total number
of troops in Gaul. He was always outnumbered, but he
was able to exploit this tribe and its hatred of
that tribe and get some on his side and some
who hated him, and some here and some there. I'm
(33:43):
only explaining my reasoning, but I'm also not saying I'm right.
You know so much of history as in the eye
of the beholder. I wouldn't consider Gallic France to be
France quite yet. But then again, I guess if I'm
gonna consider the France that wasn't quite franch yet either,
it was just send it up. You decide, I mean,
(34:07):
you decide for yourself. I'm not saying you decide for me,
but that's my reasoning. I'm not saying why you do.
Back to his actual subject though, remember this, the American
Left has, in their effort to destroy and be smirch
everything about America. The American left pretends as if, starting
(34:29):
with Christopher Columbus and moving right along, as if America
is the only place that has subjected tribal peoples the
entire world, every last tidbit of it. There were tribal
peoples who were then subjected conquered by a more powerful,
(34:51):
more sophisticated country. In Australia, they had the Aborigines. Yeah,
I get it. Doesn't skin color or religion or whatever,
none of these things about at all.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I know your college professor told you that the saintly
Native Americans they were the only ones who were repressed,
but these evil, evil Americans. But that's not true at all.
That's the entire history of the world. Australia had theirs,
Japan had there, So did you know that. You know,
part of the reason Samurais have that cool looking armor
they have is because they were fighting these tribal peoples
(35:24):
who were tough as nails and they're having a hard
time getting their hands on them because they couldn't ride
horses as well as they could as well as the
tribal peoples could, and they had to adapt. China had
to hack it out from tribal peoples, Russia had to
hack it out from tribal people's gaul. The UK thought,
the UK of Britain, the England has sick ones. Well
(35:45):
they had amazing ones back then, wild ones. You know
all that King Arthur's stuff, which I realized is a legend,
but it's all. They were all tribal peoples who were
not unified enough and technologically advanced enough to stop a
more powerful, more technologically advanced country from coming in and
(36:07):
taking what they have. And as one little dark note
before we move on to Joe Biden's fake signatures, that
future awaits us all one day. It's just how the
world works. There will be a day. It won't be
for a long time, you won't be alive for it,
but there will be a day when we are so
broken down, rotted out that some bigger, tougher country is
(36:29):
going to come in here and they're going to take
this place from us. That's how the world works. Anyway,
on that sunny note, What are you doing to protect
the memories in your life? You know, there are a
few things as sad as a house fire or a flood,
(36:51):
and it's never about the couch. Have you ever talked
to somebody gone through this? I have many times before
we had that horrible flooding down here. You ever talk
to somebody they never sitting. Try about the TV? Why not?
The TV was expensive? Every single one of them. Talk
about the pictures. That was our wedding album. Jesse, it's gone.
Can't ever get it back, h Jesse. That was the
(37:11):
only picture I had with my great grandpa. Now it's gone.
I can't get it back. Stop taking chances with those
old VHS tapes of your family with your wedding album.
Stop taking those chances and let Legacy Box digitize that
stuff for you. They make it easy. This is an
(37:32):
American company, American jobs. You're not sending your stuff to China.
You're sending it to Tennessee. They'll digitize it and send
you the originals back, of course, and then fire or
no fire, flood or no flood. Your stuff is there
Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. That's legacybox dot com, slash Jesse,
(37:55):
We'll be back.
