Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Another hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on
a Thursday. So I'm about to do something that I
don't ever do, and I'll explain why in just a moment.
But I have this rule, and it's a rule for me.

(00:34):
I would recommend it for you, but obviously you live
your life however you wish. And this rule is, I
don't get involved in other people's fights. Most definitely, if
my friends are fighting with each other, I don't stick
my nose in it. If I have a couple I

(00:54):
know and they're having all kinds of problems and maybe
even talking about divorce, that's your problem. I'm not sticking
my nose in it. Now somebody comes asking me for
help or to mediate the situation, I'm always there to help,
But I don't take these arguments people have and jump

(01:15):
in taking aside, throwing poop back and forth. And one
thing that's very, very fascinating about this job, doing radio
for a living, which is still so weird to me.
One thing that's fascinating about that is people want me
to get involved in all kinds of spats, whatever spat

(01:36):
they are interested in whatever particular causes their interest. They
understandably want me to get involved. They think it will
help their cause. They want to hear from me on it.
So I get it. But it's just because of how
I am, and that was this way a long time
before I get into media. I just don't do that now.

(01:57):
I am sure you've probably heard, or at least you've
heard of it, that United States Senator from Texas Ted
Cruz went and sat down with Tucker Carlson and they
did a long, very contentious interview and the real central
theme of it was Tucker does not want to get

(02:17):
involved in all this Iranian stuff. Ted Cruz does want
to get involved in all this Iranian stuff. And that
is the ultimate im paraphrasing. But they are very opposite
on this thing, and they went at each other, and
then it's been even worse ever since they've been going
at each other publicly on social media. And then and
then they're different surrogates of different camps. You know, Ducker's

(02:40):
people are Ted's a worth a spiece of crap, and
Ted's people are Docker's a liar and back. So let
me before I read the email, let me go ahead
and get this out of the way. First, I know
Ted Cruz and I know Tucker Carlson as in multiple
times I have hung out out with these people. I

(03:01):
know them, Okay, so I wouldn't have gotten involved anyway.
I'm really not tempted to get involved in all this.
But I'll explain why I am in a moment because
I got this one. Hey, great leader of the masses,
is it asking too much for your take on your
friend Tucker Carlson's slugfest with your man Ted Kruse. It

(03:21):
was like watching a divorced couple argue over who gets
the house, with Tucker starring as the bitter ex and
so on and so forth. I know the US government
gets all right, so on and so forth. This guy
is obviously very upset with Tucker. He was taking Cruise's side,
But that doesn't matter. Is it too much to ask

(03:41):
for my opinion? Well, here's my opinion, and everyone's going
to hate it. Here's my opinion. I think what they
did was awesome, both of them. I do not think
arguments are bad all the time. You know what I like?
I like that Tucker Carlson has an opinion, He has

(04:03):
strong opinions, He has strong opinions about American policy foreign
and domestic. He has a strong disagreement with Ted Cruz
when it comes to Iran and Israel. Tucker Carlson invited
him United States Senator to come sit down, and he
didn't shy away from his opinions. He sat and he

(04:25):
asked hard questions of the United States Senator. On the
flip side for Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz was well aware
before this that Tucker Carlson was, well, he doesn't have
a Ted Cruz bumpersticker. We'll put it to you that way.
Those two have gone at each other before, when Tucker

(04:47):
had his big show on Fox News. They've gone at
each other. It's not like Ted Cruz got ambushed. Ted
Cruz walked into a long form, not some five minute snippet,
a long for two hour interview, and he knew it
was going to be hostile. He knew that the person

(05:07):
interviewing him disagreed with him on what would be the
main subject of the interview. And yet he showed up anyway,
and they argued for two hours and both of them
made a bunch of really solid points. And I think

(05:27):
that's good. Am I crazy, I saw it. I saw
all the snippets, haven't watched two hours of it. I'm
not doing that, but I thought it was awesome. I
think this. No, I think that you're wrong about this.
You're wrong about that. What's wrong with having an argument?
And we're discussing something as big as foreign policy? Regime change,

(05:54):
nuclear weapons, America's military. Shouldn't we have debates, even on
our side. I want debates. I want people on our
side saying, no, go in, take out the nuclear sites,
hit them hard, let God sort them out. I want that,
and I want other people on our side saying, hold on, pause,

(06:18):
what are we changing the regime to? Who's facilitating that?
Is America paying for all this? Are we gonna get
involved in another Afghanistan? That's healthy. It's healthy to sit
down and have arguments with people. As I've said, your
friendships have arguments, it's fine. Don't do it in front

(06:41):
of other people. Don't embarrass people publicly. Have arguments with
your spouse, your husband, your wife. And I know, and
I'm not trying to be Grandpa Jesse, trust me, I'm
really not. But I remember what it was like when
I was younger. When you are young, if you're a
young couple listening to this, just hear me out here.

(07:05):
When you have a big blowout fight with your spouse,
it feels like the end of the world. When you
are young, that's what it feels like. It feels like
it's over. I've screwed everything up. My life is over.
He's gonna leave me, She's gonna leave it. If the
older you get, you realize it's not it's gonna be fine.

(07:25):
You're gonna cool off tonight and you're gonna go dancing
in the moonlight together, or you'll work it out tomorrow
or something. It's healthy. I like that Tucker Carlson invites
a US senator he disagrees with and sits him down
and interrogates him for two hours. And I like that

(07:46):
Ted Cruz had the guts to go do it because
Ted Cruz knew he was gonna get it both barrels
from somebody who's really, really good at that thing, and
he did, and Tucker gave it to him both barrels.
I realize is they may hate each other, and that's fine.
I don't care. I'm not their mommy. I'm not involved
in any of that at all. I liked it. I

(08:08):
consume as much information when it comes, especially when it
comes to foreign affairs. I consume as much information from
every source as possible because there's so much information out there,
but there are so many lies out there, and there
are so many people avoiding the truth out there. I
like hearing from every side and figuring out where I

(08:32):
fall down on it. The reason I brought up the
regime change things earlier, in case you missed it, I
have asked these two very important questions. If the goal
is regime change, and publicly people are calling for that,
Net and Yahoo called for that, American politicians have called
for regime change, and I believe that this president should

(08:53):
be given a fair amount of leeway to affect that. Okay,
change it too, change it to what and who is
facilitating that. Vague answers, by the way, do not work,
because then you end up with a warlord. If your
answer to who's facilitating that is the Iranian people. I

(09:17):
know that sounds really great in social studies class, but
in the real world that means it'll be the guy
who gathers the most guns and will do the most
violence he ends up winning. That's what it means. When well,
it's up to them. If you're going to topple a government,
even an evil one like the Iranian government, there has

(09:38):
to be a solid plan to replace it with something
the people of Iran will accept. That is my question.
Nobody has given me that answer, yet I get a
bunch of vagaries, or I get told to shut up,
or I get told nobody has answered these questions. Yet.
The only solid answer to one of the those two

(10:00):
questions is, Hey, the Shaw's son that the royal family.
Essentially we're going to reinstall the Shaw's son. Okay, if
that's the plan, fine, I'm just asking what is the
plan and what kind of a government is that going
to be a monarchy, some kind of a constitutional monarchy.
Are the people going to be? Okay? But these are
valid questions to ask. Just observe taking as much information

(10:25):
as you can. All right, let's talk about Disney and
Harvard and Godzilla. Next truth Attitude. Jesse Kelly. It is
the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Thursday, reminding
you that tomorrow is an ask doctor Jesse Friday, ask

(10:45):
me anything. Email your questions in right now to Jesse
at Jesse kellyshow dot com. We'll get back to a
bunch of emails in a moment. But I wanted to
point out that there are there are some companies in America,
a lot of companies that are pulling back on all
the sick cultural Marxist filth. They're not doing this because

(11:07):
they've had a change of heart and now they love
family in America and God, they're doing this because you
and me we started putting our money where our morals
are and they started getting afraid of us. But there
are other companies, There are some that are not changing,
and we can't get lulled to sleep by the fact

(11:29):
that we've had some wins. America's university system is as
committed to destroying this country as they have ever been before. Yes,
I realized that the all the DEI guidance, you're not
allowed to have DEI anymore. How many examples have we
pointed out of these people doing the exact same thing,
just changing the name. They haven't changed their cultural Marxist
ways and the country well here, right here, Harvard Law

(11:53):
Review acts as eighty five percent of submissions using race
conscious roots Brick, you think all the communists who've been
blocking the Asians and white people from getting into Harvard.
Do you think Donald Trump won the election and they've
changed their ways, totally changed that way of thinking. No,

(12:13):
I'm done with all that now you think that. And
then there's Disney. This is from Breitbart. Disney's Iron Heart
features a drag queen Robin Hood character who steals from
the privileged. Disney has not changed at all. And I

(12:34):
only brought this up to cost them money. It's my
only purpose. You don't have to take your kids to
Disneyland for Disney World. There are incredible theme parks all
over the United States of America that don't have dudes
dressed up like chicks in the Queen's store. Disney does

(12:56):
with a beard Disney does. You don't need Disney. Plus,
most of the new stuff they put out's garbage anyway, garbage.
Stop supporting this putrid company. They still put this stuff
out there because I understand why. Let me explain, I
understand why Disney's still putting it out there. They're putting

(13:19):
it out there because they haven't felt enough financial pain,
and they haven't felt enough financial pain because Americans don't
want to let go of certain traditional things that have
been wonderful. And Disney even though it's this entertainment entertainment company,

(13:40):
this child entertainment company, has been really part of America's
fabric for my entire life and before then, but from
my entire life. When we were kids, we didn't go
to the movies very often, but man, you always wanted
to see the newest Disney movie. When you were a kid,
there was just it was there was, oh what putting

(14:00):
out now, the Lion King or the whatever. The Disney
became part of our life, and it became this accomplishment
for young parents, a destination accomplishment. I'm talking about Disneyland
in California or Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It became

(14:21):
one of those things if you're a young couple and
you start having kids when they're old enough, if you
can cobble together enough money. It was always expensive, it's brutal.
Now if you can cobble together enough money. It almost
seemed like a rite of passage to where, well, we're, okay,
we've saved up enough, the kids are old enough, now

(14:44):
they can ride them my little teacup stuff. Let's go
to disney World. And you know what, pointing fingers right here,
because I did it. Now this is before Disney went
complete insane. But we did exactly that. We saved up,
we road tripped it. We couldn't even afford to fly there.

(15:06):
We road tripped it, saved up, loaded the two kiddos
in the suv, and we drove down to Orlando, Florida,
and we did Disney World. And the reason I know
what the feeling is is because that was our feeling.
We thought, well, it almost I don't want to say
an obligation, but it almost felt like, I mean, we
got to take the kids to Disney World. It's just
kind of one of those things you've got to do.

(15:28):
Every kid needs to go to Disney World. This way
of thinking we had it, we did it. We've got
to stop. We've got to stop because these corporations that
won't bend the knee, these corporations that have decided to
press the gas pedal on all the evil filth, all

(15:49):
the LGB stuff for the kids, all that stuff, we
have to make it harder for them. And we have
not made it hard enough on Disney yet, because as
many people have let go of you know, bud Light,
or they don't they don't shop at Target anymore, or
they won't go see the newest gay movie or whatever

(16:10):
it is. As many gains as we've made there, we
still can't quite shake this Disney thing. Disney is still
that's tradition, isn't it tradition? And I get that. I
get the why. It's very very understandable, but something we

(16:30):
gotta let go. All right, I'm going to talk to
you about something. Hop Lights. We did the Alexander the
Great history stuff. I think that was last week, maybe
the week before now, it was week before, week before,
week before we did Alexander the Great, and so it
had me nerding out on all the hop lights that

(16:50):
the the soldiers, the militia soldiers and professional soldiers of
ancient Greece. Stuff, swords, shield spears, it's freaking fascinating. You
want to nerd out on some Greek history, you know,
Hillsdale College will do that too for you free, more

(17:12):
than forty free online courses. Maybe you're more of an
American history geek. You want to learn about the Constitution
and why why this went in there? Why that Hillsdale
has a free course on that too. Maybe your economics
nerd that'd probably be Chris. They have capitalism. Whatever you
want more than forty free online courses at no cost

(17:35):
Hillsdale dot Edu slash Jesse. All right, let's talk about
Jasmine Crockett briefly. Then let's do some emails. Jasmine Crockett,
you know, the lovely Texas Congress will know.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Thinking that you have your own special little army that's
for you. I mean, it is just it is sick.
It is really sick, and anybody that supports it is
also sick. And so you know, we've got a mental
health crisis in this country because everyone, no matter how
you affiliate yourself, should be against Trump. Period. This is

(18:12):
not partisan for me.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yeah, let's talk about that. Next, get the Care for Rhinos.
He days with the Jesse Kelly Show. It is the
Jesse Kelly Show on an amazing Thursday. Remember if you
missed any part of the show, you download the whole
thing on iHeart, Spotify iTunes. All right, do some emails.

(18:37):
Let's do some Jasmine Crockett first, though I wish I'd
put that differently here.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
She was, you know, thinking that you have your own
special little army that's for you. I mean, it is just,
it is sick. It is really sick, and anybody that
supports it is also sick. And so you know we've
got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone,
no matter better how you affiliate yourself, should be against Trump. Period.

(19:04):
This is not partisan for me.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Barack Obama used to do that all the time, and
he really, look he learned it from his mentors, communists
like Frank Marshall Davis and the other people who mentored him.
But he really passed that along and he did it
very well. Now Democrats speak like this all the time,
and when I say like this, this is what I mean,

(19:28):
he'll take the most partisan stance in the world, and
then he'll complain about anyone who opposes it as being
partisan or being political. Hey, we need to open up
the border and let everybody in. This isn't some partisan issue.
Don't make it political. Let's just open up the border.
Communists do this all the time because there's this mentality.

(19:52):
I want you to think about the communist revolution as
food die. Stay with me, red food dye. All right,
you have me. So I want you to picture a
piece of corn bread in front of you. Gosh, I
love cornbread. That's not important. Right now, you have a
piece of corn bread in front of you. You have

(20:14):
a bottle of food dye. What the communist is constantly
doing is trying to pour as much food dye onto
the corn bread as possible, to get it to stain permanently,
as much of the corn bread red as it possibly can.

(20:35):
When it comes to their activism, they try to enshrine
it into the law. They try to enshrine it into
the bureaucracy. They don't want you to have the ability,
even if you hate it, even if you want to
vote it out, they don't want you to have the
ability to do that. The cornbread becomes red, you can't

(20:57):
get the red out of the corn bread. The cornbread
is read. They operate the exact same way with their laws.
With policies. They operate the exact same way with language.
They will try to use language and stop all opposition
to it. That's why they use tactics like, hey, I
think we should just abort every baby. Hey, don't oppose me.

(21:19):
Why are you being political? I was talking about babies.
Quit being partisan about the whole thing. It's an attempt
to silent you. It's a defense mechanism. That's why they
do it. Dear historical oracle speaking of Kamakazi stuff. Have
you watched Godzilla Minus one? I promise it's good. Uh,

(21:41):
it is very good. I watched. I didn't watch a
ton of movies with my dad when I was a kid,
but when we did, it was almost always John Wayne movies.
I've seen them all multiple times, and James Bond movies
very kid friendly. Thanks Dad, But it was John Wayne
and James Bond movies. With the accept of the monster movies,

(22:02):
meaning the Godzillas. I'm talking the old cheesy ones where
the guys clearly and you know, a rubber costume or something.
The Godzilla movies, the King Kong movies. I've seen them all,
and it's just funny how things get speaking of things
getting just ingrained in you, cemented in you. Now I

(22:22):
feel obligated to see all of them. Every time there's
a Godzilla movie out, I'll go see it in theaters,
the good ones, the garbage ones. If there's a King
Kong movie out, I'll go see it. What Chris wasn't
it in Japanese? Godzilla Minus one? Well, I don't want
to talk about that, you see. I I am able

(22:48):
to watch movies that have subtitles. I don't mind watching
movies that have subtitles at all. We watched this movie
when we were in Iraq. You only have this was
during there were CDs. Back then. You didn't have iPhones
where it was in the cloud or anything like that,
and there was no internet anyway. So for music we

(23:09):
only had a few CDs, and the same way worked
for DVDs, and they were all CDs. I'm explaining this
like an old man explaining it to kids. You know
what I'm talking about, though, CDs, well, it's a horrible
desert and we don't have facilities. Over time, they were
all destroyed, scratched up, destroyed, scratched up, destroyed. So whatever
we started out with we ended up with nothing less left.

(23:32):
I remember, I remember like it was yesterday. We had
a little boom box, a little boombox that played CDs,
and we had a few different CDs with us Pink
Floyd and Metallica and and things like that. And we
had a Godsmack. It was this band, Godsmack. I don't
even know if they're still around, but we were invading

(23:52):
and we had our boombox, and slowly but surely, you
could tell the boombox was straining under all that grit
and dirt in it. You know, CD players didn't do
well with that, and slowly but surely the CDs were
getting scratched up and mangled, so they were just slowly
fading away the whole time. Right, Eventually, all we have

(24:13):
left is the Godsmack CD, which I didn't mind them.
Had a couple of good jams, good workout jams, but
it wasn't really my favorite thing. But I remember the
moment we had the CD, the little boombox in the
track in our Amtrak and Armored Troop Carrier. Okay, and
Armored Troop Carrier is what you would know it. As
we were in this track and we're in Iraq and

(24:34):
we had this horrible sandstorm and we weren't allowed to
play music during it. There were terrorist attacks that we
had to do other things. But when it was done,
we were so covered. Our teeth were covered in dirt.
I have pictures from it, like you're just caked and dirt,
and remember there are no showers, and so we all
kind of cringe looking at our boombox stick and there's

(24:56):
no way it made it through, right, and we turn
it on and it started playing. It was like this miracle. Well, yes,
it started playing. It was this great moment, but then
it lasted maybe a minute and it was all gone,
gone forever. We never got it back again. It was

(25:18):
our last boombox. It was our last CD. Chris, Why
did I go off talking about this whole thing again?
Oh yeah, God's Lilli minus one. Anyway. One of the
very few, thanks Chris, I got distracted. One of the
very few DVDs we had was Forgive Me Lord, a
French movie. Now, stay with me, Chris. It's called Brotherhood

(25:39):
of the Wolf. Uh if I remember right, I'm trying
to think. I don't think it's for the kids. Hey kids, No, no,
I think there's a couple of scenes in that movie
that are not kid friendly. Check with mom. Okay, check
with dad. Never mind, check with mom. Dad's gonna tell
you it's okay. Brotherhood of the Wolf it was. They

(26:02):
had muskets and things like that, but they were it
was essentially a martial arts movie where they were beating
a lot of people up. But it was in French. Yes,
I know, Chris, French martial arts. It didn't it didn't
seem right rateed r Yes, I remember. It was definitely
rated r either way. It had subtitles, and because it
was one of the only things we had whenever we

(26:24):
got to a place, a civilized place where there was
a TV, it was the only movie we would watch
because it was the only one we had. I developed
a set of skills. I can read subtitles and watch
a movie. Bob cannot. It's not that she can't. She

(26:47):
hates it. She's not a huge reader anyway, although she's
picking up on that she hates it. And when we
went to Godzilla minus one, because everyone had told us
how great it was, I did not realize there were subtitles.
We sat down and the movie starts. It immediately I
hear that thing that every guy has heard before, and

(27:08):
every woman listening has done this to her man before.
I hear, and I know right off the bat, I'm
just wincing. They ah know what. Yeah, it was a
rough two hours, Chris, It was rough. All right, it's rough,
but at least my elbow didn't hurt. I'll tell you
that the relief factor was there for me even when

(27:32):
Godzilla minus one did me wrong. Relief factor was there
for me, and relief factor will be there for you
to take away your pain, not the emotional damage that
comes with showing your wife a movie with subtitles. I'm
talking about the pain that is physical. It's every day
and it's made your life worse. What don't you do

(27:53):
that you used to love because it hurts, playing golf,
going for a hike, even going to work. Maybe it hurts. Now.
Don't mask it and don't ignore it. Do something to
get rid of it completely. That's relief factor. It is

(28:13):
one hundred percent drug free. It is a supplement. You
take it every day and it builds up in your body.
Eventually you wake up and it's just gone. How wonderful
does that sound? Pain free? Just say that pain free
one eight hundred the number four relief or go to

(29:00):
Let's do a bunch of stuff, shall we? Jesse question?
How are the guests hosts selected? Do you have any say?
In it. No, well, yes and no. I guess I
should say I have the ultimate say in it if
I wanted to with that accurate Chris, did I answer that? Yeah,

(29:24):
Chris is laughing because I answered it very accurately. They
always ask there are I've really I've been blown away
since I took this gig at how wonderful Premiere has
treated me. And I really mean that. I'm not just
sucking up to my employer. They just have been wonderful.
They let me say whatever I want. I mean, you
hear the crap we get away with on this show.

(29:45):
We get to do whatever we want. There's never any correction.
Don't say this, you're not allowed to talk about that.
They've never tried to force me to take an advertiser.
When I say no, they don't complain, And so they're
very respectful. When it comes to fill in host, Hey,
it's Jesse okay with this person. It's Jesse okay with
that person. They're always asking Chris this stuff right, Chris,

(30:08):
is Jesse okay? And Chris always gives them the same
answer because Chris knows Jesse doesn't care. And it's not
that I don't. It's not that I don't care about
you and your drive home, or your workout or at
work or however you listen to the show. It's not
that I don't care about that. I understand that when

(30:29):
I'm gone for whatever it is, it is an opportunity
for somebody who wants this gig. You know, like I said,
everyone who does this wants this. It's an opportunity for
them to shine. And so I don't want to try
to control the process. I want somebody, get someone new

(30:51):
every night, I don't care. Get somebody in there and
see if somebody else can make your day great. Goh,
I like, you know what blesses me, and I don't
know why. Maybe it's just because I'm an old man.
It's baseball season, right and you know professional baseball, the
major leagues. You know that they have minor leagues Triple

(31:12):
A and Double A and Single A and all that stuff.
You know what I've always loved when somebody gets a
call up to the majors when he's playing Triple A
or something like that, and he gets a call up
at Hey, guess what so and so got hurt for
the Atlanta Braves. We need you to show up and
play right field. For the next two games, and he

(31:35):
shows up and performs. He shows up, has the opportunity
of a lifetime underneath the bright lights and hits a
bomb if he's a picture, goes out there and throws
twelve kse and wins a game. Just boom, gets an
opportunity and does it. I love that stuff. I nerd

(31:58):
out on that stuff. So whenever there is a fill
in host, I don't care who it is, Go get them,
go shine. You know James T. Harris do he does
a lot of the fell ins. James T. Harris. He's
out of Phoenix, right, Chris Phoenix. Did you know that?
I know James T from back in the day. I
got to know him personally when I was running for Congress,

(32:20):
before I was even in this business. And I think
James T does a dynamite job whenever he fills in.
But that's a guy who saw an opportunity. Hey, get
to fill in, swing for the fences. He does. You
enjoy him? You email? It makes me proud. I like that.
I like people taking a big chance, betting on themselves,

(32:43):
getting a big opportunity and killing it. I just have
always I don't know what that is if that's an
old man thing or I don't know what that is,
but I like it. It does my heart well. Dear
Princess Hans, you know that's not very nice. I heard
you talking a couple weeks back about the pain it
would feel to be shot in the hand and that
movies don't do it justice. My question to you is

(33:05):
do you live in peace knowing your tiny baby hands
are immune? You know what? Nevermind, I'm sorry I read that, Chris.
Could we screen these emails from now on? Chris, Dear
gigantic hands Jesse, see, I like this guy. Let me say,
I want to commend you for completing that fast last week.
It was very inspirational for those who weren't paying attention.

(33:26):
I fasted all morning one day and past noon. I
existed on only a protein shake in several cups of coffee,
to which producer Chris put me down at every turn,
tried to tell me it wasn't a real fast or
something like that. Anyway, Sorry, Chris, I inspired this guy.
He goes on to say, I know it wasn't easy.

(33:48):
You had to have been vamished, but you pulled it off.
Thank you. I wanted to ask, is that anyone ever
told you you sometimes sound like Shaggy from Scooby Doo.
Usually happens when you're reading, you're saying something you find
very funny. Chris, what Shaggy found sound like? I don't
remember Shaggy? Do I sound like Shaggy? I'm more high pitched.

(34:11):
I was gonna say, how am I more high pitched
than anybody? Okay, yeah, I don't understand that, Master of reality.
What was the weirdest animal? What is with? Asked doctor
Jesse as it started early. What's the weirdest animal encounter
you had with your dad in Montana? Weirdest animal encounter,
I'll tell you this one. This actually wasn't Montana, but

(34:32):
this is probably probably the most nerve wracking animal encounter.
In fact, I'll give you two of them. One isn't
even mine. It's my dad's. Dad goes out. My dad
was a big outdoorsman, much more than me, all about
the hunting and fishing that. He was that guy, right,
He was always out there hunting and fishing. He went

(34:53):
up deer hunting one time and it was snowy, it
was Montana, it was deer hunting, and he's tracking the
deer through the mountains, doesn't end up getting anything, starts
making his way back. Towards the end of the day,
he notices mountain lion tracks, essentially covering his tracks. Unbeknownst

(35:17):
to him, he was being stalked by a mountain lion
for a long period of time in the mountains of Montana,
and he was up there by himself. Now, granted he
had a high powered rifle. My dad was sorry. It
was a very large man anyway, he was six four
two fifty and he would have had a side arm
and a knife. It would have been one of the

(35:38):
tougher meals that mountain lion ever tried to take down.
But yeah, mountain lion, what Chris, Well, that's true. Look,
it is a mountain lion, and they are expert. Look
they kill elk because they're big cats. They know how
to get a hold of your throat, and once they
get your throat, you're basically done. But can they get
your throat? I don't know. And I hadn't even your

(36:00):
own yet to the point where I could tell my
dad my cheetah hunting techniques and my plans that I
intended to use if I ever get in a fight
with the cheetah. I will give you a different animal
encounter though, and then we are going to discuss the
flagpole at the White House. It's an interesting thing for
the left to get mad about. Next
