Speaker 1 (00:02):
Well, what we need is more common sense breaking down
the world's nonsense about how American common sense.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Will see us through With the common sense of Houston,
I'm just pro common sense.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
For Houston from Houston.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
This is the Jimmy Barrett Show, brought to you by
viewind dot Com.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Now here's Jimmy Barrett.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
All right, welcome to our Tuesday show. Everybody, glad you're
out there. What have we got for you today? Well,
we're gonna start with stress. I've had a stressful day today.
Have you had a stressful day today? I'm not quite sure.
Maybe maybe it's less about stress and more about frustration.
(00:52):
I mean, what is the difference between stress and frustration?
Do you think because maybe stress causes frustration or frustration
leads to stress, I'm not quite sure. I though they're
pretty interactive with one another. When you know, when you're
asked to do something and you already got too much
to do, that can cause stress. That's big on the
stress list. When you have to make decisions you don't
(01:15):
want to have to make, that's kind of big on
the stress list.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
But what's interesting to me. Family?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh yeah, family, Family is big on the stress list,
at least in my world it is right now. So
those are normal. I think those are normal stressors. Your job,
your family, school, if you go to school, your job,
if you have a job. Although to me, not having
a job would be more stressful than having a job,
(01:43):
but you get what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
But here's what's interesting to me.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
There's a whole list of things that people are stressed
out about now that twenty years ago or thirty years
ago they weren't because these things never existed. And these
things it's sort of taken over in some cases from
the normal stresses that we have in our life, or
maybe they've just added on to here's the list. These
are things that bloomers and gen xers are talking about.
(02:11):
Is the things that stress them out completely different than
the things that probably stress you or me out. Number
one cyber criminals a lot more ways for bad actors
to gain access to your personal information. You're worried about
your banking that you do online. You're worried about your
credit cards and your debit cards and whether or not
(02:31):
somebody's getting into that information. You're worried about your Social
Security number being on the black web, that kind of stuff.
Number two, all of social media, and quite honestly, I'm
surprised this isn't number one. All of social media is
causing us stress in a lot of people's lives. It's
not just all the stories you're exposed to, they're shoved
(02:52):
in front of your face. It's the information that may
or may not be real, fake news, stuff that you
decide to share, things other people share with you, people
posting on your page, things that you don't want to
have on your page. You having to police all that
kind of stuff. That's a big stressor for people. And
(03:14):
I'll be honest, I, quite honestly, I think I would
opt out right now from social media if I could.
It's a part of my job. It's the part of
my job I probably hate the most is having to
post things online. If it were up to me, I
wouldn't post anything online. I have a friend, his name
is Paul, and Paul doesn't even have a Facebook page.
(03:35):
He's never been on social media. He doesn't go on
social media. He's not on social media. I think his
life is a lot better than mine right now. He
doesn't have to deal with any of that stuff. He
doesn't have to. He formulates his opinions based on following
the news and just knowing how he feels about things
in his mind. He doesn't need to go on social media.
(03:57):
He does need to share his feelings, something feel strongly about,
and he wants to share with somebody. He'll call me
and share with me or get my opinion, because he
knows I follow the news all the time, but he's
not on social media. I'm pretty sure he's got the
right idea. Cameras, videos, people are stressed out about that.
(04:17):
That's high on the list. They came in number three
on the list. Public filming, you know, people filming themselves,
people filming you, video cameras everywhere. I try not to
think about that, And there's the part of me in
the still things. Well, I don't really have anything to hide.
I'm not running from a crime scene. I'm not trying
(04:38):
to get away with murder or crime. So I'm not
that worried about That's not high on my list of
things to be worried about.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Whether the news you're hearing or reading is factual or not.
Fake news came in number four, and speaking of fake,
deep fakes came in number five, and with AI, this
is getting more and more believe of a stressor is
people realize that what they're seeing may not be real.
I feel like I can still tell the difference between
(05:10):
something that's AI generated and something that isn't. But I
think that's only because I have a great deal at least,
I think I have a great deal of common sense.
For people who don't have any common sense, very easy
to suck them in. Number six on the list, here's
this has nothing to do with the shaving. Shaving. Shaving
(05:36):
made the list of things that stress people out. Shaving,
whatever it is you need to shave your your face,
you're underarms, your private areas. That seems maybe this is women.
Women have a lot more to shave than we do.
Botox and lip filler. That's definitely a woman thing there,
having thin lips or flat butt. It's not a crime.
(05:56):
It is not everybody. Not everybody has to have. Kim
Kardashian's number eight. Texting. We're returning a text and all
the anxiety about it or texting something and realizing, oh crap,
I can't take that back. I wish I hadn't done that.
You ever done that where you texted somebody and something
that just instantly regretted you did it clearing your inbox
(06:18):
of all of your emails. I clear mine probably five
to ten times per day because I get hundreds of
emails every day, hundreds of emails. You never ten people
using the word literally all the time. I mean literally
all the time for no reason. So for some reason,
that's a big stressing for people. All right, So we
(06:38):
post the question on Aaron katrh in the Morning Show today,
things that stress you out? What are things that are
stressing you out these days?
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Skip from Webster. What stresses me out? If the most
two things come to mind. One is I'm getting ready
to get on an airplane and go to Minnesota for
four days. The second thing is anybody that walks in
with a badge and a clipboard.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
I get them. My people driving one hundred miles an
hour on the freeway like they're diddling on a video game.
When they crash, game over, you're gone.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
You gone, bye bye. There's a lot of things about
the commutey here in Houston that can be stressful. I'm
lucky because I come to work when there's not a
bunch of traffic, and I go home where most of
the traffic is going in and I'm going out. But
the thing that stresses me out more than the fast
drivers are the slow drivers. The people hanging out in
the left lane going slow, you know, and then right
(07:39):
next to them is a truck, and right next to
that truck is another truck, and there's no way to
get around any of them.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
That that.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I find that stressfll. I shouldn't let it stress me
out that much, but I do. I find that a
little bit stressful. We got some more.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
This is Scott from New Katie. Besides the wife and
kids stressing me out, one of the things on a
white Hearted notes that stresses me out is constable. I
think haitie five is I think to one ethereous all
these young Delman kids in the education system because they
do not know what communism is. Socialism Marts has said
(08:11):
how many hundreds of millions of people would have caused
the death of Yes, they still supported their stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
I'm stupid.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
This is Tim from Montgomery, Texas listening to Launaga, Georgia
through the iHeart app. What stresses me out is user
names and passwords because they all need different credentials with
different amounts of characters, different symbols.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
You gotta change them, you can't reuse them.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Whoever thought that that is a great idea, man, I
hope they have three hundred and sixty five mondays a year.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
You know even more than that, though, this does stress
me out? Will have been How about authentication codes where
you in order to get into something that you get
into all the time, they send you an author indication
code that you have to that you have to put in,
and of course you're doing it. You're using your cell
phone at the time, right, so you have to close
(09:08):
one window, open up another window, copy paste it all
that guy that drives me crazy. Is that authentication code
really helping any I really don't feel like it. Probably is.
All right, we need Brella Lake here. You need to
run a break. We'll be right back. Jimmy bir Show
AM nine fifty KPRC. All right, think we we'll start
(09:42):
our second segment today with a little clip here from
The Five yesterday. This is Greg Guttfeld in Jessica Tarlov.
Do you know who Jessica Tarlov is? They have two
liberals on the five, but only one at any one time,
and they rotate back and forth. Jessica Tarloff is one
(10:02):
of those liberals who's on the show. I guess I'll
call her the token liberal because you know, nobody else
on that panel is a liberal. Some of them are
more conservative than others, and some of them, like Greg Gutthiller, libertarians.
But but, but nobody takes on the left of role,
the progressive left role, other than that one person. So
(10:25):
yesterday they were talking about Charlie Kirk. And of course,
if you've been talking to friends about Charlie Kirk online
on social media, if you understand there are people who
have outed themselves. There are people who are just so
despicable that they are cheering for the death of Charlie Kirk.
(10:47):
I wouldn't have been cheering for the death of Kamala
Harris or Joe Biden or anybody on the left. You know,
it's one thing to wish they weren't in office, it's
another thing to wish them dead. But people on the
progressive left, not only are they wishing people dead, they
are planting seeds. They're planning seeds with the people who
have been radicalized to please go out and do a
(11:10):
hitch up, Please go out and get rid of this person.
For us, we would appreciate that very much, and that's
kind of what's happening. And I believe there's gonna be
other targets because the progressive left is not backing off,
they're doubling down on this. So anyway, Greg Guttfeld Jessica
Tarloff on the show yesterday is trying to make excuses. Well,
(11:32):
this isn't just the left, it's the right too, you know.
So she's trying to bring up cases of people on
the right who have done an evil deed against somebody
on the left, and of course there's not very many
examples to work with, but that's the route she wants
to go instead of just going on saying, yes, what
happened to Charlie Kirk was despicable. That should not have happened,
(11:54):
it's wrong. She wanted to sort of make excuses for it,
and yesterday Greg Guttfeld was not having it.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
What's interesting here is why is only this.
Speaker 8 (12:05):
Happening on the left and not the right. That's all
we need to know about that. There was absolutely no
cos you want to talk about meliss Oorsman. Did you
know her name before it happened?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
None of us did. None of us were spending.
Speaker 8 (12:18):
Every single day talking about missus Hortman. I never heard
of her until after she died and matter, and you
don't play that both with me.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
You know what I'm talking.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
What I'm saying is there was no demonization amplification about
that woman before she died. It was a specific crime
against her by somebody who knew her, the same thing
you can bring up, Joshua Piro, but then you will
not bring up, for example, that that was a pro
Palestine person.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So don't use your what about this?
Speaker 8 (12:45):
The fact, the fact of the matter is the both
sides argument not only doesn't fly.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
We don't care.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
We don't care about your both sides argument.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
That is dead.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
For one thing, there is no cognitive dissonance on our side.
On your side, your beliefs do not match reality. So
you're coming up with these rationalizations like.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
What about this or what about that?
Speaker 8 (13:12):
We're not doing that because we saw it happen. We
saw a young bright man assassinated and we know who
did it. We are not coming up with rationalizations. We
are calm, we are honest, and we are resolute.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
We're not defensive. And I understand the defensiveness.
Speaker 8 (13:32):
I understand why people are saying, what about.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
This, and what about this?
Speaker 8 (13:36):
Because if you have to face the underlying fact to this,
your life is gonna fall apart because you're gonna realize
you're not the good guys. If you sat around and
you defended the mutilation of children, you're not the good guys.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
If you sat six hundred, seven.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Hundred cases of harassment against Republicans and.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You said, but what about this? What about this?
Speaker 8 (13:57):
And then you see this murder after calling somebody a
fashion and you fascist, you realize, maybe I'm not the
good guy. That is a hell of a realization to
deal with. So therefore, therefore you have to grasp at rationalizations.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
You don't have to do that, Jessica. They do. I
don't believe you're part of that group.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
But why the hell do you have to mimic an
echo that crap? To us? He was a patsy. That
guy was a patsy. He was under the hypnotic spell
of a direct to consumer nihilism, the trans cult. And
you know that if you can decide that biology is false,
you can.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Agree that murder.
Speaker 8 (14:36):
Is okay and that humanity is expendable.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
How you cannot see that alone and see that.
Speaker 8 (14:45):
For what the evil it is without having to attach
all of these other things is beyond me.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Wow, y'all.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
I've heard him fired up a few times, but wow,
and he was dropping S bomb's left and right.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Listen.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I know it's cable, and technically, you know you can
swear on cable, which is still stupid rule. Don't you
think if you can swear on cable, you should be
able to swear anywhere. I should be able to drop
an S bomb right now if I want to, I can't.
Doesn't seem right. And by the way, I don't feel
the need to drop an S bomb or an F
(15:22):
bomb or anything like that, because number one, I'm not
that angry, And clearly Greg Guttfeldt was angry. When you're
there's one or two things happen. I think when when
we all when we start swearing. For the most part,
sometimes we just do it as an explanation point, you know.
Sometimes we use it as an adjective for whatever it
(15:43):
is we're feeling at the time, But usually we do
it when we're either really really angry or really really frustrated.
And in Greg Gutfeldt's case, I think he was legitimately
angry for what she said and I can't say I
blame him.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Again, this this whole Charlie Kirk thing just feels like
the straw that broke the camel's back. And maybe that's good.
Maybe that's good because there's gonna be less less of
us who are going to be willing to disappear. Now,
there's gonna be less of us that are going to
be willing to just you know, turn the other cheek
and not want to make waves. More and more of
(16:22):
us will be willing to fight back. Oh Mark, as
so long as around the Gutfeld topic, he had also
had an interesting show last night. Marjorie Taylor Green. We
all know who she is, right, Marjorie Taylor Green basically
is calling for a national divorce, a peaceful divorce, which
seems like an oxymoron because there's not having been through
(16:45):
one myself, there's not a lot of peaceful divorces out there.
That seems like an oxymoron. But anyway, here here on
his panel last night, he had a Green Bray, former
Green Beret on his program. He also operates Hollywood Weapons.
He's the host of Hollywood Weapons. I guess this is
a podcast Retired Green Beret Masters Sergeant Terry Shaver. Here
(17:08):
he is saying, how really, and he's got a point.
Some of us are also to blame for all of
this that's going on, anything that's woke that's going on,
if we tolerate it, if we continue to support even
if it's not somebody who's directly trying to get rid
of us, but somebody who supports people who do you know,
like the National Football League.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
Here we go, Marjorie wants to split us. Madison's congress
Woman Marjorie Taylor Green, or MTG as she's known at
the club, is calling for a peaceful national divorce as
leftist celebrate Kirk's murders. He claims the left hates Republicans
and that our country.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Is too far gone. You just said earlier that you're
an optimist.
Speaker 8 (17:48):
Yes, you see the glass half full instead of empty,
and it's got a little effervescent Alka Seltzer in it.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yes. Do you think she's being hyperbolic?
Speaker 9 (17:57):
I hope so, because this is first off, who divorce
is not peaceful in my experience from what I've seen,
divorce is never peaceful. To the idea of a peaceful
national divorce. And then also if we're looking at this
and taking lessons from a senseless murderer.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
The whole point was that we need to talk and
be together.
Speaker 9 (18:16):
So yeah, I hope no one pays attention to this,
and I'm sorry that we are. But yeah, let's make
this clear.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Divorce is not peaceful. We should not be doing this.
Speaker 8 (18:24):
I understand the sentiment, David. I think I've even brought
We've done this topic before.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
It's usually the instinct.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
That comes out of exasperations like what do we do now?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
What can we do?
Speaker 10 (18:36):
Yeah, well, divorce is rarely peaceful, but sometimes you stay together,
you get Will Smith's family. Yes, so you have to
look at it that way. This is definitely one divorce too,
where nobody wants the children. Yeah, so that's another if right,
that's good.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
So it is tough to say.
Speaker 10 (18:58):
And I do feel like we're divorce because they already
get half my money.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah, so I really think that.
Speaker 10 (19:04):
Yeah, it goes right back to the Civil War thing
where it's probably best that we don't have, like Marjorie Greenland,
but if we do, have to figure out a way
to have a conversation in some way. But yeah, you're
right there, there is a lot going on right now
to where I don't know. I don't think divorce is
going to be all that peaceful if we just go, Hey,
you guys can have California and we'll take the rest.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I kind of would like to do that, though. All right,
I don't think it doesn't feel like this marriage can
be saved by the way. That's not the cut I
thought it was. I apologized I didn't introduce that the
right way. But obviously they're talking about Marjorie Taylor Green
and her idea that there's no such thing as a
peaceful divorce, but we need one, and I don't know,
you know, we've been saying for a long time, and
(19:46):
it feels like we're on the road to a big split.
And the more I hear coming out of the progressive
left in the in the wake of what happened to
Charlie Kirk, the more I believe that's probably true. All right,
back with more of the a we'll try again, Jimmy
Barrett Show. You're on AM nine fifty KTRC. All right, let's
(20:19):
start off this segment with a guest I had on
this morning on our morning program on KATRH. His name
is Jack Smith or Zach Smith Rother. Zach is a
senior legal fellow on crime and Justice at the Heritage Foundation.
Here is my conversation with him. I mean, hang on
a second, I'll getting stressed today because all these buttons
(20:42):
I'm pushing and nothing's doing what's supposed to do. Here's
my conversation with him. I assume that part of the
desire here, Zach, is to shut everybody up. Let's just
shut up conservatives and make them fear for their lives.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Yeah, Unfortunately, I think that's exactly right. I think we've
seen from the outrage over the past few days that
many on the right have responded to this trategy by
calling for prayers, by doubling down on their commitment to
free speech, and yet so many of the left have
responded by violence, by mocking Charlie Kirk's death. And I
think that's really been eye opening for a lot of
(21:16):
people to see just how violent, just how disgusting many
of those comments have been, and how many people are
willing to, if not resort to violence, certainly cheer it
on in efforts to silence those who they may disagree with.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Well, it's pretty pretty obvious here that we're dealing in
the case of Charlie Kirk's scass and we're dealing with
somebody who was radicalized. He was brought up in a
conservative household by Mormon parents, you know, didn't seem to
have anything out of the ordinary until the last four
or five years of his life. And now we find
out he had a trans boyfriend slash girlfriend, and was
(21:53):
a gamer, and and was texting people about what it
is that he was going to do. Clearly, at the
very least, if he wasn't getting financial support for his act,
he was at least getting emotional support.
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Well. Certainly, it certainly seems like many in his online
community may have been cheering him on. There's reports that
he was involved in different discord chats, which is an
online platform used to communicate. Certainly he was radicalized in
some ways because of the messages that were found in
the bullet casings that were used when he assassinated Charlie Clerk.
(22:30):
They must be claric that's what this was. It was
an assassination. But again, I think what so many people
have found so disturbing. Obviously Charlie Kirk's assassination very troubling,
very disturbing, but the reaction of so many people, teachers, doctors, lawyers,
members of the community that cheered on Charlie Kirk's death,
even in the face of recognizing he has a young
(22:52):
family that now is without a husband, that is now
without a father. The vitrio and the vileness and response
to that, I think that's what many on on the right,
and Franklin, many on the left have found so disturbing
about this entire episode.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I think those of us who who still have a
heart were really quite hopeful that Charlie Kirk's assassination would
be a turning point that the people on the far
left would back down or back off. Clearly that is
not the case. They're doubling down on this, aren't they.
Speaker 7 (23:21):
Yeah, that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
They are doubling down on this.
Speaker 7 (23:25):
And that goes back to what I was saying just
a minute ago, with so many on the left perfectly
fine with using violence or intimidations to try to suppress speech,
suppress ideas they disagree with. And let's be clear, the
fact that Charlie Kirk, and of everyone involved in the
conservative movement kind of Charlie Kirk was the target of this,
(23:45):
I think is really in and of itself disturbing because
Charlie's entire platform was built on going into often hostile
territory simply to have conversations, simply to have debates about issues,
important issues he cared about with people who like the
disagreed with him on many of those issues. And so
it's instead over the past several days that Charlie Kirk's
assassination wasn't just an attack on Charlie Kirk. It was
(24:08):
really an attack on the idea of free speech than
the free exchange of ideas. And I think, unfortunately that's
exactly right.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So, you know, I think the thing that made Charlie
Kirk in particular dangerous to the left is where he
did his work. He was on college campuses, he was
changing young minds, he was changing votes in the voting
in the ballot box. He was having that kind of
an impact. So clearly he was the most dangerous conservative
out there, I think, as far as the far left
(24:37):
is concerned, don't you.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Well, certainly, and I think you're already seeing the results
of that. President Trump said that he owes his victory
in large park to Charlie Kirk, that Charlie was instrumental
and mobilizing the youth voting. So absolutely, I think that
is part of what infuriated the left. But you know,
it's ironic. I think we've heard over the past few days,
you know, the Bible verse that what man means for evil,
(25:01):
God can use for good. And I think we've seen
that with Turning Point saying they're getting records numbers of
requests for student chapters to be established, both at the
collegiate and high school level. We've obviously seen massive turnout
and memorials and rallies for Charlie Kirk. I think we'll
see that again when his funeral comes up as well.
And so I think as a result of this tragic,
(25:23):
inexcusable event, Charlie's message has been amplified in many ways
that it likely would not have been had this not,
in fact have occurred.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Yeah, now we're back to the national divorce thing right
when we're talking about doubling down on the progressive left
as far as threatening people, and he had it coming
in all the fascists and Nazis and all the other
thing that's going whether it it has taken his toll.
The person who killed Charlie Kirk was radicalized, you know,
(26:00):
in in in fairly short order. You know, one of
the things I'd like to see a study out of
all this as well, is what is it about these
these individuals that they're so easy to radicalize? How do
you take a kid, we think, a relatively normal kid
from a Mormon background and conservative parents and get them
(26:22):
to the point where they are ready to take a weapon,
go to a college campus and to shoot somebody dead
for their thoughts. You know, how how far of a
leap is it? Is it a long leap to get
them there? Or is it a fairly short leap? I
get the impression with this kid relatively short. You know,
(26:45):
you have to wonder, you know, who are the other
influences on him other than the soon to be trans boyfriend.
Obviously there's an influence there. He was a part evidently
the gaming community. Maybe there was an infl UN's there.
He was texting people before he shot and killed Charlie Kirk.
(27:06):
So who are the people who's texting? What sort of
an influence did they have? Who are the other people
responsible for what the killer did? I mean, those are
all things we're gonna have to try to figure out
this time. Goes on, all right, quick little break back
with born a Moment Jimmy Barrett Show, You're a NAM
ninety fifty KPRC. All right, here's the cut, and who'll
(27:39):
start this segment with the cut that I was going
to play in our second segment, but I played the
wrong cut, So now I get to go back and
do a duover on this one because I found his
comments to be well, first of all, very blunt, which
I would expect, by the way, from a former green Bery.
You can tell this guy's a badass. I have no
(28:00):
problem with badasses, by the way, but he was very
quick on the Gutfeld panel to to let us know
that we bear some responsibility for what's going on. And
I think he has a legitimate point there are and
you'll hear him and make him in these comments. He's
farmer Master Sergeant Terry Shaver.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
He runs.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Here, I should say, he has a podcast that he
does on weapons and such. And you know he was
talking about a civil war, you know, people talking about it.
I think this is more about the Marjorie Taylor green
thing about a divorce, and if he was talking about
a potential civil war here in the United States and
how we don't want civil war. But if you don't
(28:48):
think that we are part of the problem as to
why this stuff is happening, then you're failing to consider something.
So I'll let him now speak for himself.
Speaker 11 (28:55):
If you notice there there's a trend right now people
are talking about, Wow, this is so war. Let me
look at you right now. The guys who are calling
for no civil war are my tribe, the combat guys, infantry,
special forces, armor, artillery, everybody who support us on the
ground and was overseas and.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Saw the results of a civil war.
Speaker 11 (29:16):
You don't fricking want that, So don't talk about a
civil war right when you never voted in a primary.
Don't talk about a civil war when you don't even
know who your.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
County sheriff is.
Speaker 11 (29:28):
Don't talk about a civil war if you don't know
who the fricking teachers are and what they're teaching your kids.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Stop we talk about things you can do.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Stop giving your time, money, and attention to people and
organizations that hate you. Stop giving your time, money, and
organizations to people. Stop giving your time and attention to
organizations or people that have capitulated to the people who
hate you.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Looking at you NFL.
Speaker 11 (29:55):
Are you still watching the NFL right now when they
ram a black national anthem down your throat every weekend?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Really?
Speaker 11 (30:02):
Are you still watching the NFL after a couple of
years ago when they made the players where Jacob Blake's
name Jacob Blake, the convicted violent sex offender who his
girlfriend called the cops on him. They show up, he
pulls an if he gets shot. Kenosha, Wisconsin burned. Police
sat on their hands. All the leaders and political things
(30:22):
cheered it. Media loved it. Senator Kamala Harris flew out
to Wisconsin to get a photo op and said on film,
I'm proud of you. You're still watching the NFL. Really,
and you want to talk about having a civil war.
Here's my advice to you. Stop being a domesticated animal, right,
Stop being a human battery like that you see on
(30:44):
the matrix.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Right.
Speaker 11 (30:46):
You don't have to support these people. If you had
stop watching the NFL for a year, they would have said,
you know what we're done. And I'm leaning on the
NFL because they don't hate you, but they capitulated the
people who do.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
So if I'm to follow his train of thought here
and I'll try to it sounds like what he's saying,
And if you want to relate it to the world
of sports, I'm you know, I'm a I watch occasional
NFL games. I don't get wrapped up in the NFL.
I don't buy him NFL you know stuff merchandise, but
I do get wrapped into the college thing. And I
(31:19):
think I'm probably as guilty as the next person of
supporting through the athletic program, supporting a university who is
very much woke and probably doesn't have virtually anybody on
the staffs that represents any of the things I stand for.
(31:39):
So do we punish them too? Do you punish the
athletic program at a university for having a president or
professors that are woke and that you don't like what
it is they're teaching the kids. It sounds like what
he's saying is is that if we stopped spending money
(32:02):
with these people who, if they aren't directly participating in
these types of woke activities, are at the very least
are complacent in supporting them in some way, shape or
form or another. If we don't start supporting those things,
then this will continue because there's no price to be paid.
It's kind of funny that we have a double standard
(32:23):
for that when you think about it, right, because we're
all willing to protest Cracker Barrel. Yeah, well, I'm never
going to Cracker Barrel again. That's because you know, you
can go get your breakfast somewhere else. You're not necessarily
a fan of Cracker Barrel. I mean, you're not a
fanboy of Cracker Barrel. You can you can go get
a biscuit somewhere else that you're gonna like just find.
You can go get breakfast somewhere else, or pancakes somewhere else.
(32:46):
Although their Pcan pancakes are really good. You can go
get that breakfast somewhere else and not support Cracker Barrel.
But then you have the other part of it is is, honestly,
I think you know, part of what we think about
here is who am I trying? Who am I really
punishing if I stop going to Cracker Barrel, if I
stop supporting my university football team, because I'm mad at
(33:09):
other people in the company and the way they go
about business. The people waiting tables at Cracker Barrel, They're
not necessarily woke, they're not necessarily DEI they're not incessarily
supporters of their own corporate company. Even there's a lot
of things corporations do that I detest, But is that
(33:30):
fair to not no longer go to eat there and
to put people out of work who are waiting tables
and bussing tables and washing dishes or seeding people because
we don't like what their corporation stands for. That's the part,
that's the hard part I have. That's the part I
wrestle with. Who am I really punishing if I stop
doing business with these people? All Right, that's it for today,
(33:52):
Thank you for listening. Good to have you board. We'll
see you tomorrow morning, I hope. Right in early five
am on news radio seven forty KTRH accured four on
a M nine fifty k p r C.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Then
Well, what we need is more common sense breaking down
the world's nonsense about how American common sense.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Will see us through With the common sense of Houston,
I'm just pro common sense.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
For Houston from Houston.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
This is the Jimmy Barrett Show, brought to you by
viewind dot Com.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Now here's Jimmy Barrett.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
All right, welcome to our Tuesday show. Everybody, glad you're
out there. What have we got for you today? Well,
we're gonna start with stress. I've had a stressful day today.
Have you had a stressful day today? I'm not quite sure.
Maybe maybe it's less about stress and more about frustration.
(00:52):
I mean, what is the difference between stress and frustration?
Do you think because maybe stress causes frustration or frustration
leads to stress, I'm not quite sure. I though they're
pretty interactive with one another. When you know, when you're
asked to do something and you already got too much
to do, that can cause stress. That's big on the
stress list. When you have to make decisions you don't
(01:15):
want to have to make, that's kind of big on
the stress list.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
But what's interesting to me. Family?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh yeah, family, Family is big on the stress list,
at least in my world it is right now. So
those are normal. I think those are normal stressors. Your job,
your family, school, if you go to school, your job,
if you have a job. Although to me, not having
a job would be more stressful than having a job,
(01:43):
but you get what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
But here's what's interesting to me.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
There's a whole list of things that people are stressed
out about now that twenty years ago or thirty years
ago they weren't because these things never existed. And these
things it's sort of taken over in some cases from
the normal stresses that we have in our life, or
maybe they've just added on to here's the list. These
are things that bloomers and gen xers are talking about.
(02:11):
Is the things that stress them out completely different than
the things that probably stress you or me out. Number
one cyber criminals a lot more ways for bad actors
to gain access to your personal information. You're worried about
your banking that you do online. You're worried about your
credit cards and your debit cards and whether or not
(02:31):
somebody's getting into that information. You're worried about your Social
Security number being on the black web, that kind of stuff.
Number two, all of social media, and quite honestly, I'm
surprised this isn't number one. All of social media is
causing us stress in a lot of people's lives. It's
not just all the stories you're exposed to, they're shoved
(02:52):
in front of your face. It's the information that may
or may not be real, fake news, stuff that you
decide to share, things other people share with you, people
posting on your page, things that you don't want to
have on your page. You having to police all that
kind of stuff. That's a big stressor for people. And
(03:14):
I'll be honest, I, quite honestly, I think I would
opt out right now from social media if I could.
It's a part of my job. It's the part of
my job I probably hate the most is having to
post things online. If it were up to me, I
wouldn't post anything online. I have a friend, his name
is Paul, and Paul doesn't even have a Facebook page.
(03:35):
He's never been on social media. He doesn't go on
social media. He's not on social media. I think his
life is a lot better than mine right now. He
doesn't have to deal with any of that stuff. He
doesn't have to. He formulates his opinions based on following
the news and just knowing how he feels about things
in his mind. He doesn't need to go on social media.
(03:57):
He does need to share his feelings, something feel strongly about,
and he wants to share with somebody. He'll call me
and share with me or get my opinion, because he
knows I follow the news all the time, but he's
not on social media. I'm pretty sure he's got the
right idea. Cameras, videos, people are stressed out about that.
(04:17):
That's high on the list. They came in number three
on the list. Public filming, you know, people filming themselves,
people filming you, video cameras everywhere. I try not to
think about that, And there's the part of me in
the still things. Well, I don't really have anything to hide.
I'm not running from a crime scene. I'm not trying
(04:38):
to get away with murder or crime. So I'm not
that worried about That's not high on my list of
things to be worried about.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Whether the news you're hearing or reading is factual or not.
Fake news came in number four, and speaking of fake,
deep fakes came in number five, and with AI, this
is getting more and more believe of a stressor is
people realize that what they're seeing may not be real.
I feel like I can still tell the difference between
(05:10):
something that's AI generated and something that isn't. But I
think that's only because I have a great deal at least,
I think I have a great deal of common sense.
For people who don't have any common sense, very easy
to suck them in. Number six on the list, here's
this has nothing to do with the shaving. Shaving. Shaving
(05:36):
made the list of things that stress people out. Shaving,
whatever it is you need to shave your your face,
you're underarms, your private areas. That seems maybe this is women.
Women have a lot more to shave than we do.
Botox and lip filler. That's definitely a woman thing there,
having thin lips or flat butt. It's not a crime.
(05:56):
It is not everybody. Not everybody has to have. Kim
Kardashian's number eight. Texting. We're returning a text and all
the anxiety about it or texting something and realizing, oh crap,
I can't take that back. I wish I hadn't done that.
You ever done that where you texted somebody and something
that just instantly regretted you did it clearing your inbox
(06:18):
of all of your emails. I clear mine probably five
to ten times per day because I get hundreds of
emails every day, hundreds of emails. You never ten people
using the word literally all the time. I mean literally
all the time for no reason. So for some reason,
that's a big stressing for people. All right, So we
(06:38):
post the question on Aaron katrh in the Morning Show today,
things that stress you out? What are things that are
stressing you out these days?
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Skip from Webster. What stresses me out? If the most
two things come to mind. One is I'm getting ready
to get on an airplane and go to Minnesota for
four days. The second thing is anybody that walks in
with a badge and a clipboard.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
I get them. My people driving one hundred miles an
hour on the freeway like they're diddling on a video game.
When they crash, game over, you're gone.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
You gone, bye bye. There's a lot of things about
the commutey here in Houston that can be stressful. I'm
lucky because I come to work when there's not a
bunch of traffic, and I go home where most of
the traffic is going in and I'm going out. But
the thing that stresses me out more than the fast
drivers are the slow drivers. The people hanging out in
the left lane going slow, you know, and then right
(07:39):
next to them is a truck, and right next to
that truck is another truck, and there's no way to
get around any of them.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
That that.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I find that stressfll. I shouldn't let it stress me
out that much, but I do. I find that a
little bit stressful. We got some more.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
This is Scott from New Katie. Besides the wife and
kids stressing me out, one of the things on a
white Hearted notes that stresses me out is constable. I
think haitie five is I think to one ethereous all
these young Delman kids in the education system because they
do not know what communism is. Socialism Marts has said
(08:11):
how many hundreds of millions of people would have caused
the death of Yes, they still supported their stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
I'm stupid.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
This is Tim from Montgomery, Texas listening to Launaga, Georgia
through the iHeart app. What stresses me out is user
names and passwords because they all need different credentials with
different amounts of characters, different symbols.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
You gotta change them, you can't reuse them.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Whoever thought that that is a great idea, man, I
hope they have three hundred and sixty five mondays a year.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
You know even more than that, though, this does stress
me out? Will have been How about authentication codes where
you in order to get into something that you get
into all the time, they send you an author indication
code that you have to that you have to put in,
and of course you're doing it. You're using your cell
phone at the time, right, so you have to close
(09:08):
one window, open up another window, copy paste it all
that guy that drives me crazy. Is that authentication code
really helping any I really don't feel like it. Probably is.
All right, we need Brella Lake here. You need to
run a break. We'll be right back. Jimmy bir Show
AM nine fifty KPRC. All right, think we we'll start
(09:42):
our second segment today with a little clip here from
The Five yesterday. This is Greg Guttfeld in Jessica Tarlov.
Do you know who Jessica Tarlov is? They have two
liberals on the five, but only one at any one time,
and they rotate back and forth. Jessica Tarloff is one
(10:02):
of those liberals who's on the show. I guess I'll
call her the token liberal because you know, nobody else
on that panel is a liberal. Some of them are
more conservative than others, and some of them, like Greg Gutthiller, libertarians.
But but, but nobody takes on the left of role,
the progressive left role, other than that one person. So
(10:25):
yesterday they were talking about Charlie Kirk. And of course,
if you've been talking to friends about Charlie Kirk online
on social media, if you understand there are people who
have outed themselves. There are people who are just so
despicable that they are cheering for the death of Charlie Kirk.
(10:47):
I wouldn't have been cheering for the death of Kamala
Harris or Joe Biden or anybody on the left. You know,
it's one thing to wish they weren't in office, it's
another thing to wish them dead. But people on the
progressive left, not only are they wishing people dead, they
are planting seeds. They're planning seeds with the people who
have been radicalized to please go out and do a
(11:10):
hitch up, Please go out and get rid of this person.
For us, we would appreciate that very much, and that's
kind of what's happening. And I believe there's gonna be
other targets because the progressive left is not backing off,
they're doubling down on this. So anyway, Greg Guttfeld Jessica
Tarloff on the show yesterday is trying to make excuses. Well,
(11:32):
this isn't just the left, it's the right too, you know.
So she's trying to bring up cases of people on
the right who have done an evil deed against somebody
on the left, and of course there's not very many
examples to work with, but that's the route she wants
to go instead of just going on saying, yes, what
happened to Charlie Kirk was despicable. That should not have happened,
(11:54):
it's wrong. She wanted to sort of make excuses for it,
and yesterday Greg Guttfeld was not having it.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
What's interesting here is why is only this.
Speaker 8 (12:05):
Happening on the left and not the right. That's all
we need to know about that. There was absolutely no
cos you want to talk about meliss Oorsman. Did you
know her name before it happened?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
None of us did. None of us were spending.
Speaker 8 (12:18):
Every single day talking about missus Hortman. I never heard
of her until after she died and matter, and you
don't play that both with me.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
You know what I'm talking.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
What I'm saying is there was no demonization amplification about
that woman before she died. It was a specific crime
against her by somebody who knew her, the same thing
you can bring up, Joshua Piro, but then you will
not bring up, for example, that that was a pro
Palestine person.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So don't use your what about this?
Speaker 8 (12:45):
The fact, the fact of the matter is the both
sides argument not only doesn't fly.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
We don't care.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
We don't care about your both sides argument.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
That is dead.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
For one thing, there is no cognitive dissonance on our side.
On your side, your beliefs do not match reality. So
you're coming up with these rationalizations like.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
What about this or what about that?
Speaker 8 (13:12):
We're not doing that because we saw it happen. We
saw a young bright man assassinated and we know who
did it. We are not coming up with rationalizations. We
are calm, we are honest, and we are resolute.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
We're not defensive. And I understand the defensiveness.
Speaker 8 (13:32):
I understand why people are saying, what about.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
This, and what about this?
Speaker 8 (13:36):
Because if you have to face the underlying fact to this,
your life is gonna fall apart because you're gonna realize
you're not the good guys. If you sat around and
you defended the mutilation of children, you're not the good guys.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
If you sat six hundred, seven.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Hundred cases of harassment against Republicans and.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You said, but what about this? What about this?
Speaker 8 (13:57):
And then you see this murder after calling somebody a
fashion and you fascist, you realize, maybe I'm not the
good guy. That is a hell of a realization to
deal with. So therefore, therefore you have to grasp at rationalizations.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
You don't have to do that, Jessica. They do. I
don't believe you're part of that group.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
But why the hell do you have to mimic an
echo that crap? To us? He was a patsy. That
guy was a patsy. He was under the hypnotic spell
of a direct to consumer nihilism, the trans cult. And
you know that if you can decide that biology is false,
you can.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Agree that murder.
Speaker 8 (14:36):
Is okay and that humanity is expendable.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
How you cannot see that alone and see that.
Speaker 8 (14:45):
For what the evil it is without having to attach
all of these other things is beyond me.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Wow, y'all.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
I've heard him fired up a few times, but wow,
and he was dropping S bomb's left and right.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Listen.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I know it's cable, and technically, you know you can
swear on cable, which is still stupid rule. Don't you
think if you can swear on cable, you should be
able to swear anywhere. I should be able to drop
an S bomb right now if I want to, I can't.
Doesn't seem right. And by the way, I don't feel
the need to drop an S bomb or an F
(15:22):
bomb or anything like that, because number one, I'm not
that angry, And clearly Greg Guttfeldt was angry. When you're
there's one or two things happen. I think when when
we all when we start swearing. For the most part,
sometimes we just do it as an explanation point, you know.
Sometimes we use it as an adjective for whatever it
(15:43):
is we're feeling at the time, But usually we do
it when we're either really really angry or really really frustrated.
And in Greg Gutfeldt's case, I think he was legitimately
angry for what she said and I can't say I
blame him.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Again, this this whole Charlie Kirk thing just feels like
the straw that broke the camel's back. And maybe that's good.
Maybe that's good because there's gonna be less less of
us who are going to be willing to disappear. Now,
there's gonna be less of us that are going to
be willing to just you know, turn the other cheek
and not want to make waves. More and more of
(16:22):
us will be willing to fight back. Oh Mark, as
so long as around the Gutfeld topic, he had also
had an interesting show last night. Marjorie Taylor Green. We
all know who she is, right, Marjorie Taylor Green basically
is calling for a national divorce, a peaceful divorce, which
seems like an oxymoron because there's not having been through
(16:45):
one myself, there's not a lot of peaceful divorces out there.
That seems like an oxymoron. But anyway, here here on
his panel last night, he had a Green Bray, former
Green Beret on his program. He also operates Hollywood Weapons.
He's the host of Hollywood Weapons. I guess this is
a podcast Retired Green Beret Masters Sergeant Terry Shaver. Here
(17:08):
he is saying, how really, and he's got a point.
Some of us are also to blame for all of
this that's going on, anything that's woke that's going on,
if we tolerate it, if we continue to support even
if it's not somebody who's directly trying to get rid
of us, but somebody who supports people who do you know,
like the National Football League.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
Here we go, Marjorie wants to split us. Madison's congress
Woman Marjorie Taylor Green, or MTG as she's known at
the club, is calling for a peaceful national divorce as
leftist celebrate Kirk's murders. He claims the left hates Republicans
and that our country.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Is too far gone. You just said earlier that you're
an optimist.
Speaker 8 (17:48):
Yes, you see the glass half full instead of empty,
and it's got a little effervescent Alka Seltzer in it.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yes. Do you think she's being hyperbolic?
Speaker 9 (17:57):
I hope so, because this is first off, who divorce
is not peaceful in my experience from what I've seen,
divorce is never peaceful. To the idea of a peaceful
national divorce. And then also if we're looking at this
and taking lessons from a senseless murderer.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
The whole point was that we need to talk and
be together.
Speaker 9 (18:16):
So yeah, I hope no one pays attention to this,
and I'm sorry that we are. But yeah, let's make
this clear.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Divorce is not peaceful. We should not be doing this.
Speaker 8 (18:24):
I understand the sentiment, David. I think I've even brought
We've done this topic before.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
It's usually the instinct.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
That comes out of exasperations like what do we do now?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
What can we do?
Speaker 10 (18:36):
Yeah, well, divorce is rarely peaceful, but sometimes you stay together,
you get Will Smith's family. Yes, so you have to
look at it that way. This is definitely one divorce too,
where nobody wants the children. Yeah, so that's another if right,
that's good.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
So it is tough to say.
Speaker 10 (18:58):
And I do feel like we're divorce because they already
get half my money.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah, so I really think that.
Speaker 10 (19:04):
Yeah, it goes right back to the Civil War thing
where it's probably best that we don't have, like Marjorie Greenland,
but if we do, have to figure out a way
to have a conversation in some way. But yeah, you're
right there, there is a lot going on right now
to where I don't know. I don't think divorce is
going to be all that peaceful if we just go, Hey,
you guys can have California and we'll take the rest.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I kind of would like to do that, though. All right,
I don't think it doesn't feel like this marriage can
be saved by the way. That's not the cut I
thought it was. I apologized I didn't introduce that the
right way. But obviously they're talking about Marjorie Taylor Green
and her idea that there's no such thing as a
peaceful divorce, but we need one, and I don't know,
you know, we've been saying for a long time, and
(19:46):
it feels like we're on the road to a big split.
And the more I hear coming out of the progressive
left in the in the wake of what happened to
Charlie Kirk, the more I believe that's probably true. All right,
back with more of the a we'll try again, Jimmy
Barrett Show. You're on AM nine fifty KTRC. All right, let's
(20:19):
start off this segment with a guest I had on
this morning on our morning program on KATRH. His name
is Jack Smith or Zach Smith Rother. Zach is a
senior legal fellow on crime and Justice at the Heritage Foundation.
Here is my conversation with him. I mean, hang on
a second, I'll getting stressed today because all these buttons
(20:42):
I'm pushing and nothing's doing what's supposed to do. Here's
my conversation with him. I assume that part of the
desire here, Zach, is to shut everybody up. Let's just
shut up conservatives and make them fear for their lives.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Yeah, Unfortunately, I think that's exactly right. I think we've
seen from the outrage over the past few days that
many on the right have responded to this trategy by
calling for prayers, by doubling down on their commitment to
free speech, and yet so many of the left have
responded by violence, by mocking Charlie Kirk's death. And I
think that's really been eye opening for a lot of
(21:16):
people to see just how violent, just how disgusting many
of those comments have been, and how many people are
willing to, if not resort to violence, certainly cheer it
on in efforts to silence those who they may disagree with.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Well, it's pretty pretty obvious here that we're dealing in
the case of Charlie Kirk's scass and we're dealing with
somebody who was radicalized. He was brought up in a
conservative household by Mormon parents, you know, didn't seem to
have anything out of the ordinary until the last four
or five years of his life. And now we find
out he had a trans boyfriend slash girlfriend, and was
(21:53):
a gamer, and and was texting people about what it
is that he was going to do. Clearly, at the
very least, if he wasn't getting financial support for his act,
he was at least getting emotional support.
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Well. Certainly, it certainly seems like many in his online
community may have been cheering him on. There's reports that
he was involved in different discord chats, which is an
online platform used to communicate. Certainly he was radicalized in
some ways because of the messages that were found in
the bullet casings that were used when he assassinated Charlie Clerk.
(22:30):
They must be claric that's what this was. It was
an assassination. But again, I think what so many people
have found so disturbing. Obviously Charlie Kirk's assassination very troubling,
very disturbing, but the reaction of so many people, teachers, doctors, lawyers,
members of the community that cheered on Charlie Kirk's death,
even in the face of recognizing he has a young
(22:52):
family that now is without a husband, that is now
without a father. The vitrio and the vileness and response
to that, I think that's what many on on the right,
and Franklin, many on the left have found so disturbing
about this entire episode.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I think those of us who who still have a
heart were really quite hopeful that Charlie Kirk's assassination would
be a turning point that the people on the far
left would back down or back off. Clearly that is
not the case. They're doubling down on this, aren't they.
Speaker 7 (23:21):
Yeah, that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
They are doubling down on this.
Speaker 7 (23:25):
And that goes back to what I was saying just
a minute ago, with so many on the left perfectly
fine with using violence or intimidations to try to suppress speech,
suppress ideas they disagree with. And let's be clear, the
fact that Charlie Kirk, and of everyone involved in the
conservative movement kind of Charlie Kirk was the target of this,
(23:45):
I think is really in and of itself disturbing because
Charlie's entire platform was built on going into often hostile
territory simply to have conversations, simply to have debates about issues,
important issues he cared about with people who like the
disagreed with him on many of those issues. And so
it's instead over the past several days that Charlie Kirk's
assassination wasn't just an attack on Charlie Kirk. It was
(24:08):
really an attack on the idea of free speech than
the free exchange of ideas. And I think, unfortunately that's
exactly right.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So, you know, I think the thing that made Charlie
Kirk in particular dangerous to the left is where he
did his work. He was on college campuses, he was
changing young minds, he was changing votes in the voting
in the ballot box. He was having that kind of
an impact. So clearly he was the most dangerous conservative
out there, I think, as far as the far left
(24:37):
is concerned, don't you.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Well, certainly, and I think you're already seeing the results
of that. President Trump said that he owes his victory
in large park to Charlie Kirk, that Charlie was instrumental
and mobilizing the youth voting. So absolutely, I think that
is part of what infuriated the left. But you know,
it's ironic. I think we've heard over the past few days,
you know, the Bible verse that what man means for evil,
(25:01):
God can use for good. And I think we've seen
that with Turning Point saying they're getting records numbers of
requests for student chapters to be established, both at the
collegiate and high school level. We've obviously seen massive turnout
and memorials and rallies for Charlie Kirk. I think we'll
see that again when his funeral comes up as well.
And so I think as a result of this tragic,
(25:23):
inexcusable event, Charlie's message has been amplified in many ways
that it likely would not have been had this not,
in fact have occurred.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Yeah, now we're back to the national divorce thing right
when we're talking about doubling down on the progressive left
as far as threatening people, and he had it coming
in all the fascists and Nazis and all the other
thing that's going whether it it has taken his toll.
The person who killed Charlie Kirk was radicalized, you know,
(26:00):
in in in fairly short order. You know, one of
the things I'd like to see a study out of
all this as well, is what is it about these
these individuals that they're so easy to radicalize? How do
you take a kid, we think, a relatively normal kid
from a Mormon background and conservative parents and get them
(26:22):
to the point where they are ready to take a weapon,
go to a college campus and to shoot somebody dead
for their thoughts. You know, how how far of a
leap is it? Is it a long leap to get
them there? Or is it a fairly short leap? I
get the impression with this kid relatively short. You know,
(26:45):
you have to wonder, you know, who are the other
influences on him other than the soon to be trans boyfriend.
Obviously there's an influence there. He was a part evidently
the gaming community. Maybe there was an infl UN's there.
He was texting people before he shot and killed Charlie Kirk.
(27:06):
So who are the people who's texting? What sort of
an influence did they have? Who are the other people
responsible for what the killer did? I mean, those are
all things we're gonna have to try to figure out
this time. Goes on, all right, quick little break back
with born a Moment Jimmy Barrett Show, You're a NAM
ninety fifty KPRC. All right, here's the cut, and who'll
(27:39):
start this segment with the cut that I was going
to play in our second segment, but I played the
wrong cut, So now I get to go back and
do a duover on this one because I found his
comments to be well, first of all, very blunt, which
I would expect, by the way, from a former green Bery.
You can tell this guy's a badass. I have no
(28:00):
problem with badasses, by the way, but he was very
quick on the Gutfeld panel to to let us know
that we bear some responsibility for what's going on. And
I think he has a legitimate point there are and
you'll hear him and make him in these comments. He's
farmer Master Sergeant Terry Shaver.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
He runs.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Here, I should say, he has a podcast that he
does on weapons and such. And you know he was
talking about a civil war, you know, people talking about it.
I think this is more about the Marjorie Taylor green
thing about a divorce, and if he was talking about
a potential civil war here in the United States and
how we don't want civil war. But if you don't
(28:48):
think that we are part of the problem as to
why this stuff is happening, then you're failing to consider something.
So I'll let him now speak for himself.
Speaker 11 (28:55):
If you notice there there's a trend right now people
are talking about, Wow, this is so war. Let me
look at you right now. The guys who are calling
for no civil war are my tribe, the combat guys, infantry,
special forces, armor, artillery, everybody who support us on the
ground and was overseas and.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Saw the results of a civil war.
Speaker 11 (29:16):
You don't fricking want that, So don't talk about a
civil war right when you never voted in a primary.
Don't talk about a civil war when you don't even
know who your.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
County sheriff is.
Speaker 11 (29:28):
Don't talk about a civil war if you don't know
who the fricking teachers are and what they're teaching your kids.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Stop we talk about things you can do.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Stop giving your time, money, and attention to people and
organizations that hate you. Stop giving your time, money, and
organizations to people. Stop giving your time and attention to
organizations or people that have capitulated to the people who
hate you.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Looking at you NFL.
Speaker 11 (29:55):
Are you still watching the NFL right now when they
ram a black national anthem down your throat every weekend?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Really?
Speaker 11 (30:02):
Are you still watching the NFL after a couple of
years ago when they made the players where Jacob Blake's
name Jacob Blake, the convicted violent sex offender who his
girlfriend called the cops on him. They show up, he
pulls an if he gets shot. Kenosha, Wisconsin burned. Police
sat on their hands. All the leaders and political things
(30:22):
cheered it. Media loved it. Senator Kamala Harris flew out
to Wisconsin to get a photo op and said on film,
I'm proud of you. You're still watching the NFL. Really,
and you want to talk about having a civil war.
Here's my advice to you. Stop being a domesticated animal, right,
Stop being a human battery like that you see on
(30:44):
the matrix.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Right.
Speaker 11 (30:46):
You don't have to support these people. If you had
stop watching the NFL for a year, they would have said,
you know what we're done. And I'm leaning on the
NFL because they don't hate you, but they capitulated the
people who do.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
So if I'm to follow his train of thought here
and I'll try to it sounds like what he's saying,
And if you want to relate it to the world
of sports, I'm you know, I'm a I watch occasional
NFL games. I don't get wrapped up in the NFL.
I don't buy him NFL you know stuff merchandise, but
I do get wrapped into the college thing. And I
(31:19):
think I'm probably as guilty as the next person of
supporting through the athletic program, supporting a university who is
very much woke and probably doesn't have virtually anybody on
the staffs that represents any of the things I stand for.
(31:39):
So do we punish them too? Do you punish the
athletic program at a university for having a president or
professors that are woke and that you don't like what
it is they're teaching the kids. It sounds like what
he's saying is is that if we stopped spending money
(32:02):
with these people who, if they aren't directly participating in
these types of woke activities, are at the very least
are complacent in supporting them in some way, shape or
form or another. If we don't start supporting those things,
then this will continue because there's no price to be paid.
It's kind of funny that we have a double standard
(32:23):
for that when you think about it, right, because we're
all willing to protest Cracker Barrel. Yeah, well, I'm never
going to Cracker Barrel again. That's because you know, you
can go get your breakfast somewhere else. You're not necessarily
a fan of Cracker Barrel. I mean, you're not a
fanboy of Cracker Barrel. You can you can go get
a biscuit somewhere else that you're gonna like just find.
You can go get breakfast somewhere else, or pancakes somewhere else.
(32:46):
Although their Pcan pancakes are really good. You can go
get that breakfast somewhere else and not support Cracker Barrel.
But then you have the other part of it is is, honestly,
I think you know, part of what we think about
here is who am I trying? Who am I really
punishing if I stop going to Cracker Barrel, if I
stop supporting my university football team, because I'm mad at
(33:09):
other people in the company and the way they go
about business. The people waiting tables at Cracker Barrel, They're
not necessarily woke, they're not necessarily DEI they're not incessarily
supporters of their own corporate company. Even there's a lot
of things corporations do that I detest, But is that
(33:30):
fair to not no longer go to eat there and
to put people out of work who are waiting tables
and bussing tables and washing dishes or seeding people because
we don't like what their corporation stands for. That's the part,
that's the hard part I have. That's the part I
wrestle with. Who am I really punishing if I stop
doing business with these people? All Right, that's it for today,
(33:52):
Thank you for listening. Good to have you board. We'll
see you tomorrow morning, I hope. Right in early five

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
