Speaker 3 (01:25):
By the way, Happy Thanksgiving to both of you guys,
Thank you Sam, to you Camp.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
My take on the game, well, the game.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Ohio State is the most balanced football team in the country.
They have a solid defense, the offense is explosive. Obviously
question marks around J. Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate. And
by the time this airs, I guess you know we'll
no well for sure.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But are we hearing Friday night?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Are we getting?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Your guest? Is as good as I don't know?
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Man, we might getting stomped on by six' ten game day.
COVERAGE i don't if we're going to Air friday, night
but we're definitely gonna be On sunday eleven am And
sunday seven. Pm so this.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Will sound as though we're all right if it all works.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Out the way you go, On, yeah what's your? Insight
what's your? Take it's?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Closed the gap points spread wise for all sports betters
out There michigan's run. Game one of their biggest running
backs are starting running Back chase is, out so they
have the next man up thing. Going they have an
eighteen year old Quarterback bryce And, underwood very, talented can
move outside the. Pocket, however he has not faced a
defense all year that is as talented As Ohio states
(02:28):
And Matt patricia has a front four that can turn
into a front five that can turn.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Out to front six and the best defensive backs in the.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
COUNTRY i Like Ohio state and on pure hatred alone
from last, YEAR i think they blow him out of the.
Building if everything works out the way it's supposed.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
To give, me give me a number thirty four to ten.
Excellent two Things my thoughts on your insight? Quarterback is
he that? GREAT i know he was hype coming out
of high. SCHOOL i keep looking for highlight. FIELDS i
have not Watched michigan play this. MUCH i still am
looking for the highlight reels for. HIM i haven't seen
many highlight reels from, Him so is he that? Great
(03:07):
and then number, TWO i don't know if you caught
last Week bills played The texans on A thursday night.
Game Bills Josh allen high octan, Offense texans defense at next.
LEVEL i think that the Way Houston texans shut down
and hurt like physically and most likely psychologically hurt The
(03:30):
bills And Josh allen is what our defense is going
to do To michigan's. Offense, yeah the key.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Is to Keep Bryce underwood under.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Contained and WHAT i mean by that is the defensive
ends have to stay on the hash. Marks they have
to stay disciplined and Make underwood if he decides to,
run go towards the middle of the field a lot
like they did it With Demon williams At Washington.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Washington, yes they wouldn't rush. Him they would just stand
there in front of him a lot of, times make, it.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Would hold their block and wait for him to, move.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Make make him turn his hips inside correct not.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Outside that being, Said Bryce, underwood the ceiling him is very.
High AND i say that because he's got a very
strong arm and he's but LIKE i, said he's very.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Young good for the hill areas in the fourth, QUARTER
i think, So.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
AND i think when you see him in the, future
he's going to be a little more.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Dangerous but right, now.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They Focus michigan focuses mostly on their running, attack and
that's a little shortened right. Now so If Ohio state
can keep that, Contained michigan's got a.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Problem i'm going to the game and we've got a
large group contingency Of Buckeye nation that's going to go up.
There i'm a little a little leery about the. Weather
it seems like every TIME i go to A High
State michigan game at Ann, arbor it's steel, gray it's
thirty two, degrees and it goes in between rain and frozen. Water,
(04:41):
GENERAL i think.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
The weather is the key factor.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Here if there's going to be high winds and it's
not predicted for, that but whenever there's a gusty. Wins
it's very difficult to throw the, ball and one of
our best talents is throwing the. Ball And Justin sand's,
judgment you, know you can talk about Mister underwood all you,
want and he does have a great talent, stack but
as a, freshman he doesn't have the judgment that that saying.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Has justin has shown tremendous maturity well beyond his, years for.
Sure what's your take on A High state's defense Versus michigan's?
Offense what do you see going on? There, GENERAL i.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Think that the defense is going to do very well
because of the fact That patricia is a genius and
a lot of the guys on The michigan, offense if
it can be called that are typically going to Be
they're gonna be. PUZZLED i, mean they've never seen a
guy like number, two Mister downs setting up as a
as a down. Lineman what is THE nfl playbook multiple.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Looks i'm looking For Bryce.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Owner what to be introduced To Arrvel?
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Reeves, yeah, yeah or at least the long arms of Arvel. Res,
yeah he. Is he is the, units as lawyers would,
say he is his own long arm. Statute he is a.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Units michigan is not designed to come from. Behind get out,
fast get the ball out, quick get it to your talented,
players and you build a lead On, michigan it's.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Over and the only scoring THAT i ever see Against
Ohio state or moving of the ball is usually in
that that first possession that the other side had and
we were not quite sinking with what they're, doing but
by their second, possession we know exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
What they're second half, TEAM i know my second, Possession
oh got it, Right High state clearly has a better.
Quarterback in my, opinion.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
What is that that.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
In this in just ten years, ago if you had
a sixty five percent completion, rate you were looking at
The Heisman.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Trophy it's.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Insane the kid is was born to be a, quarterback
and he's been he's certainly been groomed and coached to
be a. Quarterback we clearly have the better. Quarterback we
clearly have the better white, outs and we clearly have
the better, backs and we clearly have the better.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Defense the only problem is they've got a better offensive
line for run.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Blocking, yeah but it's our defense is can't be SAYING
i think our defense just overwhelms That michigan offensive. Line
What michigan has is they've got home field. Advantage they
have a lot of ugly, girls they have emotional, tone
they do have, that and they they're going to play
like a team like they played last, year comfortable with.
(07:17):
Risk Highest state played like if they play like they
played last, year a team terrified of, headlight headline. Risk
AND i don't think we're gonna say we're gonna see.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
That which one are we talking?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
About last? Gate last? Season you, Know Highest state just
played like a team terrified of.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Losing, no we're not going to see.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That my concern is this game comes down to six
or eight key decisive plays that could keep it. Tight
AND i want to see a Highest State And i'm
AND i could be totally wrong by. THIS i still
feel like The High state football is, methodical, careful, disciplined
(07:54):
kind of That, alabama That Nick saban type of. Football
they're very in their, APPROACH i feel. That but the
soul of the program this this these, players these, players
they bring to this franchise swagger and that's what it.
Is it's franchise, swagger speed and unapologetic aggression like the
(08:16):
Old Florida state teams from the late. NINETIES i want
to see. THAT i want to see. That, uh The
buckeyes are not out much, Outmatched but are are? They
i'm a little concerned that our offensive play calling might
be a little under. EXPRESSED i want to see The ferrari's.
Role The ferraris need a clean. Track yeah they, do they.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Do but really worried about that, weather AREN'T i always.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
AM a few years, back they.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Had all our plays, too so it didn't matter less
to do with it than them knowing all our.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Play there was a home game The Michigan state played
AGAINST us and we had twenty five on our. Wins
we couldn't throw the ball and they beat.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Us all, right, general give me your prediction thirty four
to ten From, CAMPY.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
I want to, say good.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Weather i'm looking at about forty five to seven and
the seven now and it won't be that.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Close but if you think they won't even get a field, GOAL.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
I don't think. So and their their field goal kickers
not very. Good and then but if it's bad, weather
it could be much. CLOSER i would, say if it's bad,
WEATHER i think It's Ohio state twenty one to.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Fourteen i'm in. Between I'M i think we've GOT i
think we get A i think we get a touchdown every.
Quarter there's twenty. Eight we're gonna have two field, goals
AND i think WE'RE i think we're going to be
in the high thirties to maybe they get a touchdown
a field. GOAL i Guess i'm right around there With.

Lane kiffin is going to. Do does he chase the
big dollars and go to a bigger program or does
(14:39):
he stay put At Old.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Miss, well there's a lot of really big programs right
now that are in need of someone at the. TOP i,
mean you've Got Penn, State you've got a lot of,
people a lot of coaches have been, fired and you,
Know Penn state is maybe you can, say a more
prestigious job Than Old. Miss but you, Know Old miss
is a great place to. COACH i, mean it's paradise down.
(15:02):
There you've got a lot of great talent down. There
you're stealing From, texas you're stealing From, louisiana you're stealing From,
florida you're stealing from.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
All over the southern part of THE.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Us And kiffen is a coach where if he can
get into a situation where he's a good, fit then
he can go a long. Way and so, Far Old
miss is a good, fit as he's shown this year
with the record he's put. Together, now you, know it's
not easy to compile an unblemished record AGAINST sec. Teams
(15:35):
so that's something that's kind of he's doing factory in as.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Well what you take does he go or does he.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
STAY i think if the right place, offers he'll.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Go the right places are, offering, yes, WELL.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
I would say he probably. Goes if someone Like Penn
state is offering, him he's going to.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
GO i don't know About Penn, state BUT i don't
know about. YOU i don't. Know this is a problem
with the internet and social. Media you just don't know what's.
Real i'll let me tell you Something Aboutlane. Kiffin There's
Lane kiff in one, Point oh THAT i didn't particularly care.
FOR i recognize that. Guy I've I've i've seen these
guys in the. Community i've seen guys like this in
the bar. Association a lot of, swagger big, ego, uh
(16:17):
in it for themselves and, young, brash kind of.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Immature you used to see that in the. MIRROR i.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Did and for sure this is why this is important to.
Me this is uh you, you every man or woman,
ESPECIALLY i can only relate to the. Men you reach
a point in your life where you get to the
top of the mountain and you've you've exceeded any expectation
you've ever had by all, categories and and you, go
huh is this?
Speaker 2 (16:43):
It you?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Know and and it's kind of a midlife. CRISIS i
Think Lane kiffin has gone through his midlife. CRISIS i
think we've Got Lane kiff in two point. ZERO i
am predicting That Lane kiffin. STAYS i think That Lane
kiffin stays and flips his flips his finger at the
rest of the of the college football world and, says
(17:04):
you guys don't understand WHO i. Am knew me. Now
Lane kiffin Runs Old miss football the way A Silicon
valley founder runs a. Startup absolute, swagger zero, shame and
a love for controlled. Chaos off the, field he's. Different
he's different than he was than. Before the man's doing
yoga in the. Morning he's lost, weight he's put the bottle.
(17:24):
Down he's family, centric he's rehabbing his. FAMILIES i think
he's even brought his ex wife. BACK i think don't.
Know and, no Has ole missed the cathedral of tradition
like o Highest. State, No but he's the Pirate king Of.
Oxford That's Lane. Kiffin he's always wanted to be the pirate,
king and he is now a Pirate king Of. Oxford
(17:46):
he weaponizes, tempo he weaponizes. Analytics The portal is a
shopping mall to this. Guy but the truth that people
don't like, admitting including, ME i don't really like. Admitting
The Ole miss really shouldn't be in the national. Conversation
they don't have the roster depth of the blue. Bloods
they don't have the budget Of Ohio state or even
(18:08):
In indiana at this, point and they don't have the
recruiting soil Of georgia And florida And. Texas yet here
he Is Lane, kiffin year after, year here down At Ole,
miss building teams that look like they were assembled in
a lab by someone who got bored and wanted to cause.
Trouble so the transfer portal is his personal shopping. Mall,
(18:29):
Oxford mississippi is fantastic little. Town he can build his legacy.
There he can watch his Boy knox continue to play.
Football he's a sophomore At Oxford High. School he's Built
lane's built an offense that can score on. Anyone that's his.
Genius he treats fourth downs like. Suggestions yet somehow he's
(18:50):
Made Old Miss Old miss the cool program in THE.
Sec So kiffin's ceiling isn't capped by. Talent it's going
to be his. Ego and if he chases his. Ego
if he loves that ego to get in, there he's,
gonna he's, gonna he's gonna go follow the, money go
follow his, pride go follow his, ego and he's gonna
leave this team in the lurches right before the. Playoffs and,
(19:15):
UH i think that he trolls so, well so well he's.
Been he trolls players on the field during a, game
he trolls, reporters he's trolling the sports world right. Now and,
uh he's the SEC's agent of. Disruption and For Old,
miss this is the best identity they've had in. Decades
(19:36):
he knows. It he's gonna he's going to be rewarded very,
well very well By Old. Miss and the nil money
is gonna line up for Those Old miss. PLAYERS i Predict,
friday or before the egg, Ball lane tells his team he,
stands and that team gets. Supercharged and that's the story
And i'm sticking to. IT i HOPE i don't eat my,
(19:58):
words but, man if he, Leaves i'm gonna be your.
Disappointed more than defense of The american, people we are
ten second three of our planksgiving show are our football.
Show if you're just joining, us please go into The
purple podcast button And iTunes And. Spotify it really helps
(20:19):
the show's presence when we know that when we see the,
downloads it's really the best metric to know how well
the show's. Doing by all, accounts we are the. Shows
the downloads are. Humbling story just kind of like really, wow,
humbling good. Up we're trying to put a different product
(20:42):
out there here in the last seven or eight. Years
it's not chewing on the daily, headlines but kind of
taking the, bigger the bigger data points and extrapolating them into.
History and, look if you had a two hundred and
fifty year old grandfather sage sitting Around thanksgiving, table who
can impart some? Wisdom it's kind of what we are
(21:04):
doing with the. Show so we're interpreting what's happening today
and interpreting what happened in the past here In america
and try to put a positive attribution On america that
this experiment is working as. Designed the pains that you
may feel as a, conservative as a, progressive as a,
(21:24):
liberal as a classic liberal or, libertarian any pains that
you feel in a day to day, basis that's just
The american experiment. General what would the what's the alternative
to The Great American? Experiment if you don't like what's
happening here In, america please share with the listeners what the,
alternative the alternative looks.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Like, well As Ronald reagan, said you, know there's nowhere
else to. Go that's why everyone comes. Here they like
what we. Have but, unfortunately locusts like full fields of, wheat.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
And they don't think.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Ahead they just they Just they're plan is to, land
eat everything in the field and just go.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
On and that's what the left.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Is there's a bunch of, locusts and to follow them
is to have an aimless and immoral.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Existence and it's up to us to know why this,
nation who this nation. Is it's important to know the
nation that predates The, constitution the nation that predated the
signing of The declaration Of. Independence that nation is what
we Celebrated, thanksgiving The Nation, state Our republic seventeen seventy.
(22:38):
Six that's what we celebrate on the Fourth July thanksgiving
is we're celebrating the nation that predates the founding of
the nation state, itself The republic And Zoron. Mamdani and
it's a trope that gets that's been well used and worn.
Out america was not founded by. Immigrants it was not
(23:01):
founded the nation Of. America The american nation was not
founded by. Immigrants it was founded by, Settlers english. Settlers
and as much as Modern americans and contemporaries and progressives
or status want to think That america didn't, begin that
(23:24):
it began as a kaleidoscope of cultures that's somehow harmonized into,
republic that's. Wrong The nation Of america that evolved into
a republic and then formalized as a state in seventeen
seventy six and a constitution in seventeen eighty. Seven that
(23:46):
our nation began as an idea planted with remarkable self
awareness by a very particular set of, people a particular
set of people in a particular moment and, time carrying
a particular. Message the inheritance Was english, culturally, religiously, legally
(24:07):
and the settlers a. Colonists the settlers who carried this
this way of life across The, atlantic they did not
consider themselves as immigrants in any modern sense of the.
World they saw themselves as guardians of a way of
life that they feared was slipping, away and that way
of life is local self. Government that distinction. Matters that
(24:33):
distinction is. Huge it matters because the modern habit of
Saying america was founded by immigrants collapses into collapses history
into just a slogan that sounds.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Nice it's lazy.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Thinking, yeah our nation that predates the founding of the,
republic the, nation the, nation The american nation is founded
by and continues to be protected by people who believe
that we are caring forward a way of life worth.
Preserving and they built institutions and norms stout enough to
(25:11):
outlast the fads and trends of the. Day and historically
most nations have lived in relative peace with other. Nations
it's when these nations become nation states and then they
become imperial and they wander over and to take their
(25:31):
way of life into other people's ways of. Life that's
when you get. War and war got mechanized and modernized
with the modern, state which is WHAT i want to
talk to here, next because what caused all the friction
of the twentieth, century that same, type same type of statist, thinking.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Is what is.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Causing this new progressive liberal, Insurrection these insurrection, barbies these
insurrection karens but historically most nations lived in re relative
peace with other. Nations In america was founded in exactly that.
Way it was a conscious extension of the Agrarian english
(26:18):
way of, life medieval way of life that was transport
planted into a. Wilderness now we've mentioned on the on
prior shows That henry the, eighth when he decided to
sever from The Catholic, church you wanted, it ostensibly wanted
to get.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Divorced divorced and married. Again, Right, WHY i, mean you
can say he really believed in.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Marriage and once he once he decoupled from The Catholic,
church twenty percent of the tillable land Of england that
had been controlled by The Catholic church and had been
farmed and co opt common land became up for and
he sold. It and so that you, know five, six,
(27:04):
seven eight hundred years Of english farming pretty Much East.
England that way of life got unplugged When Henry yates did.
This and within a matter of a couple, generations some
of These East anglicans they got on their these ships
and they came To New. England, well, yeah they. Settled they're,
(27:28):
like we're going to continue this village living the self
governance over.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Here these were entrepreneurs who didn't have any room over
In england to entrepreneur.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Themselves the fences were going. On, Yes so even if
you go into The english countryside, today there are remnants
of this medieval living where fences go. Up but every
fence at some point in time have gates that are.
Unlocked so you can walk across The english countryside through
(27:58):
other people's, quote private, property but you can pass through those,
gates the, conswalts for. Instance. Right, so These american, pilgrims these,
settlers the ones we have venerated since we were, children
risked their lives crossing an ocean to protect Their english
identity and to live out their religious convictions without the
(28:20):
warp and pull of a foreign. Society they built towns
that mirrorred that agrarian economy of Eastern, england and that
when The New world's resources, here you, know it was
a perfect opportunity to extend that village type of, living
and they reproduced This english village, life its, hierarchies its.
(28:44):
Manners they imported the town meeting system wholesale From. England
they kept their, dialect their, clothing Their puritan social, codes
and you, know you still want you still have parts
Of New. England it's a cultural time. Cap but they
were only one. Strand you had the cavaliers who settled In.
Virginia they were more. Aristocratic you had The quakers who
(29:09):
settled At. Pennsylvania they were very, pacifist, egalitarian.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
And conflicts In maryland.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yep and but what they brought with them was self,
government village, Councils english common, Law protestant moral, culture representative,
government local, autonomy community duty to each, other and the
belief quoint by today's, standards that this way of life
(29:40):
is worth, preserving even at great. Cost immigrants didn't create that.
Framework they joined. It they assimilated into. It, Irish, Germans, Italians.
Jews each wave has absorbed into a culture that had
already been stamped in the sixteen. Hundreds and we Became
they Became, americans proudly Became, americans not by constructing a
(30:04):
whole new identity from, scratch but by adopting the existing.
One and you, know we're up against a heart. Break
i'm want to pick this up after the.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Break you gotta keep tracking the, time.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
All, Right welcome, Back it's Our thanksgiving. Show it's Our,
friday it's Our American Football week. SHOW i want to pick.
UP a nation is born from. Diversity america was. Not
it was not created or not born by. IMMIGRANTS a,
nation The american, nation came before The. Republic it came
(30:40):
before the declaration of, Independence it became before the constitution our.
NATION a nation is born naturally from, unity unity of,
purpose unity of cultural, inheritance unity of founding. Vision diversity
enriches it, later but it is not a substitute for that.
(31:00):
Foundation and If america were founded by strictly by, immigrants
the country would look very. Different it would be an accidental,
hodgepodge a place without a through, line without a shared,
language without a common legal, tradition without a founding. Story
and here's my, Concern, general AND i would like your
input on. This if we look at the states, constructed
(31:24):
not the. Nations the states constructed after the twentieth, Century Great,
Wars World War one And World War, two man made smarty,
pants administrative, contraptions borders drawn by committees and. Cartographers those
are map, makers, right, indeed rather than by a people
(31:48):
with a shared. Narrative they had, flags they had, anthems
but they had no. Soul they had no founding, story
they had no inherited. Glue for, Instance, iraq The british
created this state Of iraq in nineteen, twenty carving it
out from Three ottoman providence provinces whose populations had little in.
(32:14):
Common you Had, Kurds Sunni, shia Both, Arabs, assyrians and
it was a patchwork forced under a single. Crown no shared,
memory no common, identity no national. Myth it Was british
administrators wishing it into. Being The french did the same
thing In, syria and The italians did the same thing In.
(32:40):
Libya these are central administrative planners status and what Happens gray, Men,
yeah and you can see what. HAPPENED i mean WHEN
i say the State, iraq what do you think Of?
Syria what do you think Of, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Lebanon? Libya
(33:05):
now THE. Drc these are states that smarty pants and
committees and PhDs are trying to create into a. Nation
it doesn't. Work and this same type of thinking is
what's happening with The american progressive. Left it doesn't, work
(33:28):
which is why we eat. Conservatives libertarians say leave us.
Alone you can't create a. Nation by. Decree people see
themselves as one. Community WHEN i go Up Dan Arbor saturday,
Morning i'm part Of Buckeye.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Nation amidst the. Freaks and then if.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
You just drew a big circle Around, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky West,
Virginia indiana and said you are now the nation state Of,
buckeye there's gonna be a lot of people going, no sorry,
then and then you have a dictator come in and go,
no you Are. Buckeyes you, know you could See tito doing,
(34:11):
that did, That kaddafi doing? That you can feel that
from the Modern Democrat party and whatever they're turning. Into
And i'll tell you the people who for profit from
this type of administrative, apparatus these status on both The
republican And democrat.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
Parties, sadly those.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
People they don't care about national. Identity they might participate
in The fourth Of, july or they participate In. Thanksgiving
they might, pretend but, man they following the, dollars these,
shells these states that are artificially made against the will
of people from all races and religions and. Sex they're,
(34:58):
like we don't want to be forced into a shared.
Ideal we want to have our way of doing. Things
so whomember is profiting from this administrative apparatus is known
as a. Status anyone who opposes this is called a.
Nationalist and apparently being a nationalist means you're a, fascist
(35:19):
it means you're a white. Supremacist, well ask ask the
various sects Of islam in The Middle east who were
forced Into, syria forced Into, iraq who were forced Into,
lebanon whether they are what they think about the distinction
(35:41):
between status and nationalists, like we don't care what you call.
It we know what we. Want and this is the
founding Of. America the nation Of america is self, governments local,
autonomy a shared national, story and the secular.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
Government.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Right but what we're what we're getting now is because
we have the you, know we're in our seventh decade
of this. State is type of thinking is we have
multiple nations forming inside The state Of. AMERICA i see
you nodding your. Head so the pattern is blunt and
(36:24):
you can see it played out in The Middle east
And Eastern europe And Central. Africa when you create a
nation by, decree when you've tried to force a nation
without people who see themselves as one community with one
past and one. Future you get a, nation you get a,
state a, shell and there are going to be men
(36:45):
and women who profit from that state or.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
Shell we.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Don't we don't like. That and anyone who opposes this
is called a. Nationalist and this is you, know you
can't have nations or. States you can't have nations imposed top.
Down whereas In, america our founding story was forged long before.
(37:15):
Independence states may. Dissolve the nations endure and that found that,
ideal that early Settler english ideal warts and all gave
us the, uh these are descendants of The Magna, carta
the rights of, man that, Said, god we are. Sovereign
(37:40):
god made us each, sovereign and we will organize in
a manner that makes most sense for our sovereignty to be,
protected so that each of us with Our god given
gifts and. Talents whether you're that you consider yourself you
(38:01):
don't have any any unique skills or.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Gifts you, do you just haven't found them.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Yet and if you're just going to THE b AND
b to be an, employee or you're going to the county,
agency or you know you're you're working for a, paycheck that's,
Fine but man when you're not, working find out that
unique gift and talent inside. You we need, you whether
it's your, art your, music your, culture you're. Teaching we need.
(38:28):
That so please don't just go home and sit on
the couch and do. Nothing we need. That that's The
american nation we do. Need we do need. Diversity that
is the spice of walking Through, brooklyn the spice of
walking Through, chicago the spice of walking through in the big.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Cities we. Need we need that.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
Diversity but we need to reject that part of the
diversity that says we're going to impose our interests in
our ways onto this new place we've just.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Gone that's not going to. Work, yeah you can do
whatever you want to.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Do you do, You, yeah but the reason the reason
you want to come here because you're your your man made. State,
sorry but The, british The, english The, italians The, allies
they screwed it up After World War one And World War. Two,
sorry it was a. Mistake we should never have gone
(39:26):
Into World War. One did not need to. Happen Without
World War, one you don't Have World war two Without
World war. Two you don't have A Cold war without
The Cold. War we don't have you. Know, sorry we
screwed up your, state we stepped on your national your.
Nation but what made us great is stubborn self confidence
that will ben no no need any. Man Happy, thanksgiving Go,

Speaker 3 (01:25):
By the way, Happy Thanksgiving to both of you guys,
Thank you Sam, to you Camp.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
My take on the game, well, the game.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Ohio State is the most balanced football team in the country.
They have a solid defense, the offense is explosive. Obviously
question marks around J. Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate. And
by the time this airs, I guess you know we'll
no well for sure.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But are we hearing Friday night?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Are we getting?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Your guest? Is as good as I don't know?
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Man, we might getting stomped on by six' ten game day.
COVERAGE i don't if we're going to Air friday, night
but we're definitely gonna be On sunday eleven am And
sunday seven. Pm so this.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Will sound as though we're all right if it all works.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Out the way you go, On, yeah what's your? Insight
what's your? Take it's?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Closed the gap points spread wise for all sports betters
out There michigan's run. Game one of their biggest running
backs are starting running Back chase is, out so they
have the next man up thing. Going they have an
eighteen year old Quarterback bryce And, underwood very, talented can
move outside the. Pocket, however he has not faced a
defense all year that is as talented As Ohio states
(02:28):
And Matt patricia has a front four that can turn
into a front five that can turn.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Out to front six and the best defensive backs in the.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
COUNTRY i Like Ohio state and on pure hatred alone
from last, YEAR i think they blow him out of the.
Building if everything works out the way it's supposed.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
To give, me give me a number thirty four to ten.
Excellent two Things my thoughts on your insight? Quarterback is
he that? GREAT i know he was hype coming out
of high. SCHOOL i keep looking for highlight. FIELDS i
have not Watched michigan play this. MUCH i still am
looking for the highlight reels for. HIM i haven't seen
many highlight reels from, Him so is he that? Great
(03:07):
and then number, TWO i don't know if you caught
last Week bills played The texans on A thursday night.
Game Bills Josh allen high octan, Offense texans defense at next.
LEVEL i think that the Way Houston texans shut down
and hurt like physically and most likely psychologically hurt The
(03:30):
bills And Josh allen is what our defense is going
to do To michigan's. Offense, yeah the key.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Is to Keep Bryce underwood under.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Contained and WHAT i mean by that is the defensive
ends have to stay on the hash. Marks they have
to stay disciplined and Make underwood if he decides to,
run go towards the middle of the field a lot
like they did it With Demon williams At Washington.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Washington, yes they wouldn't rush. Him they would just stand
there in front of him a lot of, times make, it.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Would hold their block and wait for him to, move.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Make make him turn his hips inside correct not.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Outside that being, Said Bryce, underwood the ceiling him is very.
High AND i say that because he's got a very
strong arm and he's but LIKE i, said he's very.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Young good for the hill areas in the fourth, QUARTER
i think, So.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
AND i think when you see him in the, future
he's going to be a little more.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Dangerous but right, now.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They Focus michigan focuses mostly on their running, attack and
that's a little shortened right. Now so If Ohio state
can keep that, Contained michigan's got a.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Problem i'm going to the game and we've got a
large group contingency Of Buckeye nation that's going to go up.
There i'm a little a little leery about the. Weather
it seems like every TIME i go to A High
State michigan game at Ann, arbor it's steel, gray it's
thirty two, degrees and it goes in between rain and frozen. Water,
(04:41):
GENERAL i think.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
The weather is the key factor.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Here if there's going to be high winds and it's
not predicted for, that but whenever there's a gusty. Wins
it's very difficult to throw the, ball and one of
our best talents is throwing the. Ball And Justin sand's,
judgment you, know you can talk about Mister underwood all you,
want and he does have a great talent, stack but
as a, freshman he doesn't have the judgment that that saying.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Has justin has shown tremendous maturity well beyond his, years for.
Sure what's your take on A High state's defense Versus michigan's?
Offense what do you see going on? There, GENERAL i.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Think that the defense is going to do very well
because of the fact That patricia is a genius and
a lot of the guys on The michigan, offense if
it can be called that are typically going to Be
they're gonna be. PUZZLED i, mean they've never seen a
guy like number, two Mister downs setting up as a
as a down. Lineman what is THE nfl playbook multiple.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Looks i'm looking For Bryce.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Owner what to be introduced To Arrvel?
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Reeves, yeah, yeah or at least the long arms of Arvel. Res,
yeah he. Is he is the, units as lawyers would,
say he is his own long arm. Statute he is a.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Units michigan is not designed to come from. Behind get out,
fast get the ball out, quick get it to your talented,
players and you build a lead On, michigan it's.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Over and the only scoring THAT i ever see Against
Ohio state or moving of the ball is usually in
that that first possession that the other side had and
we were not quite sinking with what they're, doing but
by their second, possession we know exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
What they're second half, TEAM i know my second, Possession
oh got it, Right High state clearly has a better.
Quarterback in my, opinion.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
What is that that.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
In this in just ten years, ago if you had
a sixty five percent completion, rate you were looking at
The Heisman.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Trophy it's.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Insane the kid is was born to be a, quarterback
and he's been he's certainly been groomed and coached to
be a. Quarterback we clearly have the better. Quarterback we
clearly have the better white, outs and we clearly have
the better, backs and we clearly have the better.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Defense the only problem is they've got a better offensive
line for run.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Blocking, yeah but it's our defense is can't be SAYING
i think our defense just overwhelms That michigan offensive. Line
What michigan has is they've got home field. Advantage they
have a lot of ugly, girls they have emotional, tone
they do have, that and they they're going to play
like a team like they played last, year comfortable with.
(07:17):
Risk Highest state played like if they play like they
played last, year a team terrified of, headlight headline. Risk
AND i don't think we're gonna say we're gonna see.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
That which one are we talking?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
About last? Gate last? Season you, Know Highest state just
played like a team terrified of.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Losing, no we're not going to see.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That my concern is this game comes down to six
or eight key decisive plays that could keep it. Tight
AND i want to see a Highest State And i'm
AND i could be totally wrong by. THIS i still
feel like The High state football is, methodical, careful, disciplined
(07:54):
kind of That, alabama That Nick saban type of. Football
they're very in their, APPROACH i feel. That but the
soul of the program this this these, players these, players
they bring to this franchise swagger and that's what it.
Is it's franchise, swagger speed and unapologetic aggression like the
(08:16):
Old Florida state teams from the late. NINETIES i want
to see. THAT i want to see. That, uh The
buckeyes are not out much, Outmatched but are are? They
i'm a little concerned that our offensive play calling might
be a little under. EXPRESSED i want to see The ferrari's.
Role The ferraris need a clean. Track yeah they, do they.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Do but really worried about that, weather AREN'T i always.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
AM a few years, back they.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Had all our plays, too so it didn't matter less
to do with it than them knowing all our.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Play there was a home game The Michigan state played
AGAINST us and we had twenty five on our. Wins
we couldn't throw the ball and they beat.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Us all, right, general give me your prediction thirty four
to ten From, CAMPY.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
I want to, say good.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Weather i'm looking at about forty five to seven and
the seven now and it won't be that.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Close but if you think they won't even get a field, GOAL.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
I don't think. So and their their field goal kickers
not very. Good and then but if it's bad, weather
it could be much. CLOSER i would, say if it's bad,
WEATHER i think It's Ohio state twenty one to.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Fourteen i'm in. Between I'M i think we've GOT i
think we get A i think we get a touchdown every.
Quarter there's twenty. Eight we're gonna have two field, goals
AND i think WE'RE i think we're going to be
in the high thirties to maybe they get a touchdown
a field. GOAL i Guess i'm right around there With.
Campy i'm gonna say mid to high thirties to the low. Teens,
(09:45):

Speaker 4 (15:11):
Us And kiffen is a coach where if he can
get into a situation where he's a good, fit then
he can go a long. Way and so, Far Old
miss is a good, fit as he's shown this year
with the record he's put. Together, now you, know it's
not easy to compile an unblemished record AGAINST sec. Teams
(15:35):
so that's something that's kind of he's doing factory in as.

state is offering, him he's going to.

Disappointed more than defense of The american, people we are
ten second three of our planksgiving show are our football.
Show if you're just joining, us please go into The
purple podcast button And iTunes And. Spotify it really helps
(20:19):
the show's presence when we know that when we see the,
downloads it's really the best metric to know how well
the show's. Doing by all, accounts we are the. Shows
the downloads are. Humbling story just kind of like really, wow,
humbling good. Up we're trying to put a different product
(20:42):
out there here in the last seven or eight. Years
it's not chewing on the daily, headlines but kind of
taking the, bigger the bigger data points and extrapolating them into.
History and, look if you had a two hundred and
fifty year old grandfather sage sitting Around thanksgiving, table who
can impart some? Wisdom it's kind of what we are
(21:04):
doing with the. Show so we're interpreting what's happening today
and interpreting what happened in the past here In america
and try to put a positive attribution On america that
this experiment is working as. Designed the pains that you
may feel as a, conservative as a, progressive as a,
(21:24):
liberal as a classic liberal or, libertarian any pains that
you feel in a day to day, basis that's just
The american experiment. General what would the what's the alternative
to The Great American? Experiment if you don't like what's
happening here In, america please share with the listeners what the,
alternative the alternative looks.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Like, well As Ronald reagan, said you, know there's nowhere
else to. Go that's why everyone comes. Here they like
what we. Have but, unfortunately locusts like full fields of, wheat.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
And they don't think.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Ahead they just they Just they're plan is to, land
eat everything in the field and just go.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
On and that's what the left.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Is there's a bunch of, locusts and to follow them
is to have an aimless and immoral.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Existence and it's up to us to know why this,
nation who this nation. Is it's important to know the
nation that predates The, constitution the nation that predated the
signing of The declaration Of. Independence that nation is what
we Celebrated, thanksgiving The Nation, state Our republic seventeen seventy.
(22:38):
Six that's what we celebrate on the Fourth July thanksgiving
is we're celebrating the nation that predates the founding of
the nation state, itself The republic And Zoron. Mamdani and
it's a trope that gets that's been well used and worn.
Out america was not founded by. Immigrants it was not
(23:01):
founded the nation Of. America The american nation was not
founded by. Immigrants it was founded by, Settlers english. Settlers
and as much as Modern americans and contemporaries and progressives
or status want to think That america didn't, begin that
(23:24):
it began as a kaleidoscope of cultures that's somehow harmonized into,
republic that's. Wrong The nation Of america that evolved into
a republic and then formalized as a state in seventeen
seventy six and a constitution in seventeen eighty. Seven that
(23:46):
our nation began as an idea planted with remarkable self
awareness by a very particular set of, people a particular
set of people in a particular moment and, time carrying
a particular. Message the inheritance Was english, culturally, religiously, legally
(24:07):
and the settlers a. Colonists the settlers who carried this
this way of life across The, atlantic they did not
consider themselves as immigrants in any modern sense of the.
World they saw themselves as guardians of a way of
life that they feared was slipping, away and that way
of life is local self. Government that distinction. Matters that
(24:33):
distinction is. Huge it matters because the modern habit of
Saying america was founded by immigrants collapses into collapses history
into just a slogan that sounds.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Nice it's lazy.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Thinking, yeah our nation that predates the founding of the,
republic the, nation the, nation The american nation is founded
by and continues to be protected by people who believe
that we are caring forward a way of life worth.
Preserving and they built institutions and norms stout enough to
(25:11):
outlast the fads and trends of the. Day and historically
most nations have lived in relative peace with other. Nations
it's when these nations become nation states and then they
become imperial and they wander over and to take their
(25:31):
way of life into other people's ways of. Life that's
when you get. War and war got mechanized and modernized
with the modern, state which is WHAT i want to
talk to here, next because what caused all the friction
of the twentieth, century that same, type same type of statist, thinking.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Is what is.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Causing this new progressive liberal, Insurrection these insurrection, barbies these
insurrection karens but historically most nations lived in re relative
peace with other. Nations In america was founded in exactly that.
Way it was a conscious extension of the Agrarian english
(26:18):
way of, life medieval way of life that was transport
planted into a. Wilderness now we've mentioned on the on
prior shows That henry the, eighth when he decided to
sever from The Catholic, church you wanted, it ostensibly wanted
to get.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Divorced divorced and married. Again, Right, WHY i, mean you
can say he really believed in.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Marriage and once he once he decoupled from The Catholic,
church twenty percent of the tillable land Of england that
had been controlled by The Catholic church and had been
farmed and co opt common land became up for and
he sold. It and so that you, know five, six,
(27:04):
seven eight hundred years Of english farming pretty Much East.
England that way of life got unplugged When Henry yates did.
This and within a matter of a couple, generations some
of These East anglicans they got on their these ships
and they came To New. England, well, yeah they. Settled they're,
(27:28):
like we're going to continue this village living the self
governance over.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Here these were entrepreneurs who didn't have any room over
In england to entrepreneur.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Themselves the fences were going. On, Yes so even if
you go into The english countryside, today there are remnants
of this medieval living where fences go. Up but every
fence at some point in time have gates that are.
Unlocked so you can walk across The english countryside through
(27:58):
other people's, quote private, property but you can pass through those,
gates the, conswalts for. Instance. Right, so These american, pilgrims these,
settlers the ones we have venerated since we were, children
risked their lives crossing an ocean to protect Their english
identity and to live out their religious convictions without the
(28:20):
warp and pull of a foreign. Society they built towns
that mirrorred that agrarian economy of Eastern, england and that
when The New world's resources, here you, know it was
a perfect opportunity to extend that village type of, living
and they reproduced This english village, life its, hierarchies its.
(28:44):
Manners they imported the town meeting system wholesale From. England
they kept their, dialect their, clothing Their puritan social, codes
and you, know you still want you still have parts
Of New. England it's a cultural time. Cap but they
were only one. Strand you had the cavaliers who settled In.
Virginia they were more. Aristocratic you had The quakers who
(29:09):
settled At. Pennsylvania they were very, pacifist, egalitarian.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
And conflicts In maryland.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yep and but what they brought with them was self,
government village, Councils english common, Law protestant moral, culture representative,
government local, autonomy community duty to each, other and the
belief quoint by today's, standards that this way of life
(29:40):
is worth, preserving even at great. Cost immigrants didn't create that.
Framework they joined. It they assimilated into. It, Irish, Germans, Italians.
Jews each wave has absorbed into a culture that had
already been stamped in the sixteen. Hundreds and we Became
they Became, americans proudly Became, americans not by constructing a
(30:04):
whole new identity from, scratch but by adopting the existing.
One and you, know we're up against a heart. Break
i'm want to pick this up after the.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Break you gotta keep tracking the, time.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
All, Right welcome, Back it's Our thanksgiving. Show it's Our,
friday it's Our American Football week. SHOW i want to pick.
UP a nation is born from. Diversity america was. Not
it was not created or not born by. IMMIGRANTS a,
nation The american, nation came before The. Republic it came
(30:40):
before the declaration of, Independence it became before the constitution our.
NATION a nation is born naturally from, unity unity of,
purpose unity of cultural, inheritance unity of founding. Vision diversity
enriches it, later but it is not a substitute for that.
(31:00):
Foundation and If america were founded by strictly by, immigrants
the country would look very. Different it would be an accidental,
hodgepodge a place without a through, line without a shared,
language without a common legal, tradition without a founding. Story
and here's my, Concern, general AND i would like your
input on. This if we look at the states, constructed
(31:24):
not the. Nations the states constructed after the twentieth, Century Great,
Wars World War one And World War, two man made smarty,
pants administrative, contraptions borders drawn by committees and. Cartographers those
are map, makers, right, indeed rather than by a people
(31:48):
with a shared. Narrative they had, flags they had, anthems
but they had no. Soul they had no founding, story
they had no inherited. Glue for, Instance, iraq The british
created this state Of iraq in nineteen, twenty carving it
out from Three ottoman providence provinces whose populations had little in.
(32:14):
Common you Had, Kurds Sunni, shia Both, Arabs, assyrians and
it was a patchwork forced under a single. Crown no shared,
memory no common, identity no national. Myth it Was british
administrators wishing it into. Being The french did the same
thing In, syria and The italians did the same thing In.
(32:40):
Libya these are central administrative planners status and what Happens gray, Men,
yeah and you can see what. HAPPENED i mean WHEN
i say the State, iraq what do you think Of?
Syria what do you think Of, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Lebanon? Libya
(33:05):
now THE. Drc these are states that smarty pants and
committees and PhDs are trying to create into a. Nation
it doesn't. Work and this same type of thinking is
what's happening with The american progressive. Left it doesn't, work
(33:28):
which is why we eat. Conservatives libertarians say leave us.
Alone you can't create a. Nation by. Decree people see
themselves as one. Community WHEN i go Up Dan Arbor saturday,
Morning i'm part Of Buckeye.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Nation amidst the. Freaks and then if.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
You just drew a big circle Around, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky West,
Virginia indiana and said you are now the nation state Of,
buckeye there's gonna be a lot of people going, no sorry,
then and then you have a dictator come in and go,
no you Are. Buckeyes you, know you could See tito doing,
(34:11):
that did, That kaddafi doing? That you can feel that
from the Modern Democrat party and whatever they're turning. Into
And i'll tell you the people who for profit from
this type of administrative, apparatus these status on both The
republican And democrat.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
Parties, sadly those.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
People they don't care about national. Identity they might participate
in The fourth Of, july or they participate In. Thanksgiving
they might, pretend but, man they following the, dollars these,
shells these states that are artificially made against the will
of people from all races and religions and. Sex they're,
(34:58):
like we don't want to be forced into a shared.
Ideal we want to have our way of doing. Things
so whomember is profiting from this administrative apparatus is known
as a. Status anyone who opposes this is called a.
Nationalist and apparently being a nationalist means you're a, fascist
(35:19):
it means you're a white. Supremacist, well ask ask the
various sects Of islam in The Middle east who were
forced Into, syria forced Into, iraq who were forced Into,
lebanon whether they are what they think about the distinction
(35:41):
between status and nationalists, like we don't care what you call.
It we know what we. Want and this is the
founding Of. America the nation Of america is self, governments local,
autonomy a shared national, story and the secular.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
Government.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Right but what we're what we're getting now is because
we have the you, know we're in our seventh decade
of this. State is type of thinking is we have
multiple nations forming inside The state Of. AMERICA i see
you nodding your. Head so the pattern is blunt and
(36:24):
you can see it played out in The Middle east
And Eastern europe And Central. Africa when you create a
nation by, decree when you've tried to force a nation
without people who see themselves as one community with one
past and one. Future you get a, nation you get a,
state a, shell and there are going to be men
(36:45):
and women who profit from that state or.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
Shell we.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Don't we don't like. That and anyone who opposes this
is called a. Nationalist and this is you, know you
can't have nations or. States you can't have nations imposed top.
Down whereas In, america our founding story was forged long before.
(37:15):
Independence states may. Dissolve the nations endure and that found that,
ideal that early Settler english ideal warts and all gave
us the, uh these are descendants of The Magna, carta
the rights of, man that, Said, god we are. Sovereign
(37:40):
god made us each, sovereign and we will organize in
a manner that makes most sense for our sovereignty to be,
protected so that each of us with Our god given
gifts and. Talents whether you're that you consider yourself you
(38:01):
don't have any any unique skills or.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Gifts you, do you just haven't found them.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Yet and if you're just going to THE b AND
b to be an, employee or you're going to the county,
agency or you know you're you're working for a, paycheck that's,
Fine but man when you're not, working find out that
unique gift and talent inside. You we need, you whether
it's your, art your, music your, culture you're. Teaching we need.
(38:28):
That so please don't just go home and sit on
the couch and do. Nothing we need. That that's The
american nation we do. Need we do need. Diversity that
is the spice of walking Through, brooklyn the spice of
walking Through, chicago the spice of walking through in the big.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Cities we. Need we need that.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
Diversity but we need to reject that part of the
diversity that says we're going to impose our interests in
our ways onto this new place we've just.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Gone that's not going to. Work, yeah you can do
whatever you want to.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Do you do, You, yeah but the reason the reason
you want to come here because you're your your man made. State,
sorry but The, british The, english The, italians The, allies
they screwed it up After World War one And World War. Two,
sorry it was a. Mistake we should never have gone
(39:26):
Into World War. One did not need to. Happen Without
World War, one you don't Have World war two Without
World war. Two you don't have A Cold war without
The Cold. War we don't have you. Know, sorry we
screwed up your, state we stepped on your national your.
Nation but what made us great is stubborn self confidence
that will ben no no need any. Man Happy, thanksgiving Go,
(39:51):
Bucks god Bless. America
