our Lord and savior Minikey. No, seriously, I'm just kidding.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
My God is really really special and I love my
dad Lack.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
I'm proud of him and that even though he is
in here with us, but he died as a true hero.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
How much everything about him.

Speaker 6 (02:11):
And the moment that the officers and I had to
come see the children, my biggest reaction was, I don't
have seven arms. I have seven children who just lost
their father, and I don't have seven arms to wrap
around them.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
I'm Frank Sola, chairman of the steven Sila Tunnel to
Talis Foundation.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Our foundation is committed to delivering mortgage free homes for
gold Star families and fallen first respond to families.

Speaker 7 (02:36):
To not have to worry financially is a huge peace
of mind. The thought of what in the world will
I possibly do to pay the bills? How will I
possibly let the children have a life that feels normal.
I don't want them to have to quit their piano
lessons or their basketball. I don't want them to feel
that we have to move into a little apartment and
struggle financially. In addition to the emotional weight.

Speaker 8 (02:57):
There are one thousand families that need our talents. Of
Towers is honoring those heroes that risk their lives by
providing them with mortgage free homes.

Speaker 7 (03:06):
Those who serve us and then lay down their lives
protecting our freedoms and our safety. The least we can
do is eleven dollars a month to give them that
piece of always knowing there's a home. There's that sanctuary
when life feels like it's been tipped upside down, because
it has when you lose a parent in the line
of duty, to know you can go home, you can
be safe, there's no risk of losing your home. That's

(03:28):
a peace of mind that I can't believe you can
get for eleven dollars a month.

Speaker 8 (03:32):
I'd like to ask you to contribute eleven dollars a
month to support their efforts.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Please donate eleven dollars a month by calling one eight
four four bravest or visit Tunnel to Towers dot org.

The following program contains course, language and adult things. Listener

(05:17):
He Said, She Said? I am your host for the
Evening Aggie and with me is my other co host,
so awesome, Rowdy Rick. I always call him Rowdy Rick, because,
let's face it, he is. How are you doing tonight?

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Hey? You know it's it's your handle. Actually it actually
was given to me by somebody else, so it even
counts as a call sign, so I did, in fact
earn it. So there's that. But yeah, so I hope
everybody's having a great Friday. That thank you so much
for hanging out with us. I know it's been a
rough couple of well a little over a week now,
but we're still hanging in there. I would like to

(05:50):
point out that there was just a shooting about an
hour or so ago, I think at a next our
owned ABC station in California. So I don't think that,
you know, the violent left is apparently going to stay
the violent left.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yang, good lord. I just I'm at the point of,
you know, like re refitting a bulldozer. I'm at that
point right now.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Right where Jack's a tank and just goes on a rampage. Yeah,
I'm kind of I'm kind of feeling that right now.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
It's just it's gotten so insane. So but you know,
one of the things that I did notice, which is
our topic for tonight, was that there has been a
reawakening of faith after the assassination of our ore I guess,
one of our voices, Charlie Kirk, and so I wanted

(06:49):
to touch on that because there are some things that
I've been seeing on social media, and they've been bugging
me a little bit. I'll be honest, and I cannot
profess to speak to all Christian denominations, obviously because I'm Catholic,
although I did used to attend Baptist Church for a

(07:09):
few years in tandem with the Catholic one because I
had a lot of friends that went to the Baptist church.
So I would do the Mass at eight thirty, and
then at ten o'clock I would do the Baptist to
hang out with my friends and then that be home
by nad nice and Mom was always like, I don't

(07:31):
know how I feel about this. I mean, you aren't
going to Mass, but then you're going to do the
Baptist thing. But that's double the Christian stuff. So I'm
not sure how I feel about this.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
I know, I mean, is there such a thing as
too much Christian stuff? I mean, really, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
I don't know. I don't think. So I've never felt
that there was too much of it, you know.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
I've always been told there's never too much of a
good thing, except for ice cream Sundays.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, yeah, that's true. I made the mistake one time
after the Baptist Church let out and everything. My friends
wanted to go get ice cream, and so we went
and at the time, the closest ice cream place was
Basking Robins, but in the town went over and it

(08:25):
was rather late getting home, and then Mom's putting out
lunch and everything, and she's looking at us because my
sister was with me, and she asked us where we've been,
I said, and before I could stop my sister because
Mom had put food on the table, which meant we
were going to eat that food regardless of how full

(08:45):
we were. Okay, it was going to happen. Before I
could stop her, she tells Mom where we were, and
you could see Mom's face. What And I was like,
oh no, this, y'all, this is worse than metailing my
mom to calm down.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Okay, not my lunch, not by munch.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
So you know, I told her. I was like, well,
you know, you know, they invited is for ice cream
and they just wanted to hang out a little bit longer.
And you know, it was really nice and we only
had one scoop and blah blah blah and all that stuff,
and and then we sat at the table and we
ate every single bite because we just I want to do. Yeah,

(09:33):
calm down, we were eating ice cream. Oh yeah, that's
gonna go over real.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Well. I mean well, especially back then, it probably wouldn't
have gone over nearly as well. I could. I could
envision a flying trunklin that moment. I really could.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
But it has been, like I said it, it has
been a very topsy turvy past week and a half.
I will say. I mean we're just now on the
nineteenth and Charlie died on the tenth. I mean, it's

(10:15):
it's been just nine days. I can't I still can't
grasp it, you know.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah, one of the guys that we syndicate, who usually
does this show on Wednesday night messaged me, and I
didn't see it until later, but he messages me, like
eleven o'clock Wednesday morning, He's like, yeah, no show today.
This has been the longest month, this week ever. And
I'm like, I kind of feel that.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yeah, it has been. It has been, but but you know,
I've seen there has been a shift that everybody can
regardless of where you stand in your faith, regardless of
whether you're Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, it doesn't matter where
you're standing, witness a cultural shift that happened with this assassination.

(11:04):
And we've you know, you and I were not well.
I was too young when MLK was assassinated, but I
do remember, you know, Malcolm X being assassinated, and I
remember that there was a certain cultural shift that happened

(11:29):
with those and it does happen. It's not just us.
It happens all over the world when prominent figures, whether
they be political, religious, celebrity, you know, sports figures, you know,
are assassinated. And that is what happened. It was an assassination.
So I'm not going to I'm not going to be

(11:53):
little by just calling it something else. But there is
a you know, Brad and I were discussing that there
has been you can witness that there has been a shift.
And the shift normally occurs towards one side. It's usually
it propels the society towards one but you know, one side.

(12:15):
It's almost like a wave hitting on a beach. In
this case, it's like the parting of the Red Sea.
This shift has me very troubled because this is the
kind of shift that we read about what we were
reading about the Irish troubles and things of that nature,

(12:36):
where the shift was not so much a shift as
a schism. The chasm opened up between two factions. Two
things just separated. It was like oil and water. You
couldn't just mix them together anymore. And that's what I'm
starting to witness. There has been that kind of a

(12:58):
a difference, and and you see it in social media.
You see it. Several people have been posting videos about
what happened to Charlie Kirk, how it affected them, both
positively and negatively. Some people were cheering. And now you've

(13:18):
see the ramifications of that in real time. And this
is something honestly, I didn't think I would see whereby
people would actually take it upon themselves to say, hey,
that's not appropriate, and I'm going to tell your employer
about it. And guess what the time you know, that
fo time has come about and a lot of people

(13:42):
are like, I can't believe I got fired, you know,
and all this stuff, and I'm like, I remember when
I worked for Disney, there was a strict code of conduct.
There were certain things you couldn't even say out loud, okay,
while wearing your believe it or not. When I've worked

(14:05):
at the Disney stores, we had to wear the mausketeer outfit,
which was the pleated skirt and the and the letterman sweater.
It was so geeky, but you know, I managed to rocket.
I'm not gonna lie. But the thing was we had
there were there was things. There were things we couldn't
We couldn't even talk about during work hours, okay, and

(14:28):
if we were off work, but in the mall or
anywhere near one of the Disney searchs, we still couldn't
talk about it. I mean, you signed, you know, when
you get hired, you sign you know, paperwork, and there
are certain things that come with your job description, and
there is an employee handbook. Everybody has one. So it

(14:50):
was surprising to me not that people were being so
much called out for it and that the employers were
actually acting on it, but that people were surprised that
it was happening to them.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
The part that surprised me about all of that was
the fact that people were willing to be that reraason
with their own image and their own name. I mean,
I agree, you know, social media, we were around during
its beginnings and for a time, and eventually people got
found out because they typed the same So it was

(15:25):
kind of easy to tell. But they used to create
these smaller accounts that didn't have their names associated with
them and no pictures to go online and say this
crazy stuff. Now people are just putting it out there,
full on video. Just yeah, you know, I'm happy he's dead,
you know what I'm I'm not.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
I think it has You're right, but I think it
also has to do with that culture where the clicks
and the likes give these people that sense of you know,
I guess they feel alive when people do this. I

(16:02):
don't know, I've never understood that, but you know, they
get a joy out of the higher the clicks and
the higher the likes, and you know, they put themselves
out there, and it's just it's weird to me.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Well, I mean, I mean, all of this has been
crazy to me. What I love is how the left
is trying to call this cancel culture. And I'm like,
you remember what cancel culture was, right, That was when
somebody who entered like some sort of professional life posted
something fifteen years ago on the Internet that they got
fired for. That's cancel culture. This is literally what the lefts,

(16:40):
you know, they started. Well, it's not really cancel culture.
It's accountability culture. No, that's what this is, because this
is stuff you're saying in real time. And look, it's
not even that I care that you disagree with the man,
you know what. You can even take his words out
of context all you want, because we all know the truth.
It's when you're like, I'm glad he's dead and I
want Trump dead next. That's where I started drawing the line,

(17:02):
because that's what I kept seeing, like in all all
these little Reddit channels and everything else, it was all, uh,
Trump next, Please, who's next? We got him one Nazi down?
How many more to go? And I was just like,
enough is enough? Man? Just I mean, come on, dude,
do you guys not have any common decency at all anymore?
I mean, you talk about how supposedly rapidly evil our

(17:24):
side is. Let me tell you the difference between our
side and their side. That was just crystallized again today.
You remember the shooting of the Minneapolis state senator that
there nobody stuided anything about that when.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Exactly and I recall, there.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Was a resolution the Democrats put up condemning that violent act.
Every single Republican voted for. There were fifty eight Democrats
who voted against the one for Charlie Kirk today. So
don't talk to me about this stuff, just don't.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
It's it's it's really sad because for them it was
voting against Charlie Kirk. But the last line on that
resolution was what they voted against. And I will always
remember that.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Oh I know.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
So I'm you know, like I like I said, I'm
witnessing a huge, huge chasm that is actually growing, and
it is And normally things of this nature tend to
bring people together. Witness nine eleven, which actually was not
an assassination, but it was a terrorist act upon our soil,

(18:37):
and we came together. At least it wasn't for very long,
I guess, but we were together for a time. We
were in mourning, We were reeling from an attack that
just shook us to our very the soul of the country,
and for a time we were united against that and

(19:04):
didn't take very long, but you know, the separation started again.
But it was really odd that this particular assassination did
not incentivize people to actually stop and think, how is

(19:26):
this acceptable? No, there was one side that not only
thought it was acceptable, they thought it should happen to
more people. And they were bragging about it on social media. Well,
the older it's the people.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Were The one bright spot I have about all that is,
I have noticed in the last nine days. While there
is a side who thinks this was great and wonderful
and needs to happen to more people and why didn't
happen to him sooner and he was a racist misogynist,
that side is shrinking in droves in the last nine days.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
I have seen that.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
Yes, I have seen more and more people posting on
social media that this was the line that was finally
too far for them with the Democratic Party. And I
happen to agree with somebody who put out an article
this week, I think it was either through town Hall
or Red State, who basically said that at this point
they don't even think the Democratic Party is going to
be able to rise from the ashes. They think probably

(20:18):
within the next six to eight months, they're just going
to full on become the Democratic Socialist Party. And from
everything that I'm seeing happening in New York City, I
think based on that trajectory, he may be more right
than anybody wants to admit.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
No, it's I think it has something maybe to do
with the fact that they have so bought into the
idea that all of these causes, the TQ part of
the LGBTQ.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
The.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Socialism, the anti Semitism, the free Palestine, all of that,
it's attached to the Democratic Party, and they don't know
how to remove the Limpets. They just don't. They don't
see that these things are destroying their party. The only
one that I can see that does see it is Fatterman.

(21:14):
He's the only one that's absolutely aware of what's going on,
and he is trying to tell them, hey, you need
to stop, we need to do something about this, or
else the party is going to just basically conflagrate right
there and there, and nobody's paying attention to him. They
just call him, you know, they call him names, and
they try to discredit him. His own party tries to

(21:38):
do this. His wife is trying to work behind the scenes,
questioning his mental acuity. I couldn't believe it when I
read that. I was like, what, I just can't. She's
like worried about him because he is so you know,
pro Israel and stuff, and I'm like, what, girl, you
need to worry about your status, your visa status or whatever.

(22:03):
But he's about the only one that sees. And this
is the problem with the Democratic Party and to an extent,
with the Republican Party too, which is why some of
us don't call ourselves republican, we call ourselves conservative. They
do not see the long game, They do not see
the repercussions of any actions that they take today. For them,

(22:24):
history starts brand new every day. It's a clean slate
every single day. This is why they can actually stand
there and say, Jimmy Kemble has been canceled. I can't
believe that you know that they would do such a
thing when not just four years ago that were canceling
everybody for the COVID facts. So I I you know,

(22:46):
to me, it's just like they they It's not that
they forget, it's just that for them, history does not
exist past every morning, so everyone starts new.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Well, yeah, I mean, I've joked for them for a
long time, and I know it's an insulta gole fish,
but I've joke for a long time that Democrats basically
have the attention span of a net and the memory
of a goldfish. And it's becoming more and more apparent
than I was. Right.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, it's it's it's kind of it's weird to witness.
And you know, we I'll be the first two men.
We have our unc cooks in the right, you know,
and in the Republican Party.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
Yeah, but we our own pretty well.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
Yeah, but we tend to actually call them out and
kick them out. Right now, our problem is Corey Mills,
and we're trying to get rid of him. So you know,
we're actively doing something to police or own side. And
I don't see anybody on the left ever doing that.
Twenty body, as a matter of fact, they just run
cover for everybody.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
That's because we ostracize are crazy. They embrace it pretty much,
over and over and over again. They embrace it. I mean,
look at I mean again, did just you know their
biggest thing is Donald Trump is hitler? Donald Trump is
a fascist. Charlie Kirk was one of his biggest supporters.
Was basically makes him a misogynist, racist, fascist Hitler junior.

(24:05):
But I don't know any very many fascists who have
members of the opposite party in their cabinet.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
I don't either.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Everybody seems to forget that Robert F. Kennedy Junior never
changed party affiliation.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
No he didn't. So you have independence too, who used
to be Democrats.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
So I don't that's not that's not that, that's not
very fascist. I'm just saying, and the irony of if
you look, if you look at the actual definition of fascism,
Charlie Kirk being assassinated is the textbook definition of fascism.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Yes it is.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
But they can't see it, or they won't see it
because it's fine because he was a bad person. You
know what I don't necessarily wish for bad people to
get murdered is unless they're terrorists. I mean that that's
see other thing, right, So the left is more pissed
off that we are killing terrorists trying to poison our
country than they are about Charlie Kirk being assassinated by

(25:09):
another American. Let that sik in for just a second.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
It just came out. I don't know if you were
if you saw this, but DC actually had to lower
the age of what they considered juvenile from twenty four
to eighteen. A twenty four year old was considered a
juvenile in DC.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Well, I mean, with modern science, I actually kind of
agree with that sake. If we're going to do that, though,
we need to do that everywhere because we now completely
understand that.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
That was that was for but only for one thing. Oh,
it wasn't for everything. And you know what the one
thing was.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Oh yeah it was. It was you know, for doing
bad things. But yeah, I mean, with what we now
understand about science and in the typical age that the
prefrontal core Tex kicks in, I honestly think we should
rework the age of majority for everything. They want to
do it though, because you know.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
I would not mind, but it would have to be
all the way up. And but this is you know,
one of the things that I was that I was
talking to my brother in law about he's in the military,
and that there was this push outside of the US
and this is by the UN and by the Hague
and other world bodies. They want to raise the age

(26:31):
of conscription, age of whatever you can serve, the age
where you can serve in the military and any military
to twenty four and it have no And but the
reason for that is because of our military. It would

(26:52):
really reduce the number in our ranks. If they were
to do that, we would have to get of so
many who actually commit. My niece went in at seventeen.
She wasn't even eighteen when she graduated from high school
and she really really wanted to go in. And my
brother in law said, oh my god, fine, I will
sign the paper. Where kind of thing. I mean, she

(27:17):
was like dead set. That is what she wanted to do.
She wanted to go a career, and she wanted to
start from the bottom, and she wanted to go in.
But she was seventeen, so for her, she would have
had to wait seven years before she could do that,
you know. And there's there are some people that are
just not college material. They don't want to do college

(27:41):
and they would prefer a life in the military coming
out of high school. There was nothing wrong with that.
It's very admirable in my opinion. I have several people
in my family that did just that. And for the
you know, for them to say, oh no, no, we
need to raise it because you know, a twenty four
year old is still a kid. So yeah, and I'm like, okay,

(28:03):
then if that's going to happen, you're right. Everything else
has to come up to that point. The voting, the smoking,
the drinking, the owning of weapons, all of that comes up.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
But I mean, to me, that's one of the ways
we fix society, because I think part of the reason
why a lot of our younger you know adults or
you know kids depending on where you put the marker,
depending on what they're able to do, are sodamn schizophrenic
is because there's so many different benchmarks to being an adult.
Now you can vote at eighteen, you can listen in
the military at eighteen, you can buy, you can go

(28:37):
get your own place if you have the ability to
do so at eighteen. All these things you can do
at eighteen. But you still can't drink or smoke until
you're twenty one. But you can stay on dad's insurance
or mom's insurance till you're twenty five or the day
you turn twenty six. And there's just so many different
things Now. It used to be this clear delineation point
that you know, once you are this age, this is

(28:59):
it no more, and now there's there's all this gray area,
And I think it's part of the reason why so
many of our kids today are so damn confused, because
they are adults in certain aspects of their lives, they're
not still in others, and they they're just like, if
I'm an adult, let me be an adult and then
because they don't know when the age of adulthood really
is any more. Half of them are still living in home,

(29:19):
in mom and Dad's basement, eating cheetos, going I want
to be able to play Fortnite and mom won't let me.
I just.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Think I think you do make a point because a
lot of the finding out that's happening on college campuses
right now, a lot of those kids actually did what
they did.

Speaker 5 (29:41):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
For example, the young woman at Texas Tech, she decided
to be an instigator at a Charlie Kirk vigil. She
actually ended up assaulting gentleman that was there, and she was,
you know, very loud and everything, and she was arrested

(30:05):
and one of the things that she was saying was
that I'm an adult, I can do whatever I want.
Blah blah blah, you can't stop me all this stuff.
When she got arrested, she was like, I'm just I'm
just a kid. So she was, you know, doing both,
and I'm like, no, see, you're in college now, and

(30:28):
there is a little thing. I mean, I did you know,
I found my student handbook from when I was in
college five.

Speaker 5 (30:38):
I was cleaning. I was cleaning my dad's stuff and yeah,
there it was. I'm like, I can't believe this is
still here. I mean, wow, but we had student handbooks.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Huh. Meanwhile I went to college eight years later.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
But the thing is, you know, it's like we had
a student handbook in high school. We had in junior high.
I remember having one in sixth grade. So in college
we had one. The one in college was a little
thicker than the one in high school. But it actually

(31:19):
outlined how they expect. This is a contract when you
go to the university and you're paying money to go learn,
but you're actually right, you're actually signing a contract. You
will abide by certain rules and regulations that the colleges have.
You will abide by certain rules and regulations that the dormitory.
In case you're living in a dorm, they in case

(31:43):
you are in certain if you're in certain groups like
Texas A and M has the core cadets. If you're
in that particular section, you have a you have an
additional book, you know. Uh. The members of certain dormitories

(32:06):
have their own guidelines as well that they've hand out.
So it's it's not this is not unusual, this is
this is not news. It's not news and for for
them to be actually acting as if with surprise. It's
for me, it's like you just never had accountability. You

(32:29):
never were accountable for anything that you did. You always
got to pass for it. This is and this is
the culbination of it.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Yeah, like I said, one of one of the only
right spots I've taken from all of this. Probably the
only bright spot, well, I guess there's been two, is
the number of I guess college age kids and younger
that have been woken up by this mess. But also
this return to faith and what I find the most
interesting and almost entertain is and I think it's because

(33:02):
I've started doing the show with Korn, because you know,
we've kind of been all over the place with faith,
with what he likes to talk about, and because I'm
always constantly talking about it. My phone's constantly listening to me,
you know, keeping track of the things that I discuss.
So I've noticed more and more stories, like the screen
capture of one that I posted last night, that there's
now a study that is confirming what you know, people

(33:24):
of faith and mystics have known for thousands of years.
How you talk to yourself can impact your life directly. Yes,
it's funny because all these different things that have been
outlined in these texts that everybody says are anachronistic and
we don't need them anymore and we've outgrown them, and
science is more important, and science is the way science

(33:45):
is reproving everything in these books every single day.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
I you know, for me, it was like, well what
makes sense? I mean if I talk, if I if
I give myself a pep talk, my entire hour book
changes for that day. I mean, there's a reason, I'm serious.
I call myself a Pollyanna. There's a reason for that.
People have called me that for as long as I
can remember, ever since I saw that movie when I

(34:12):
was like fourteen or fifteen years old, I identified with
a Email's character because I was like that. I honestly
was like that, and so I I won't lie. These
past two weeks have been really difficult for that. And
I have to give a quick shout out to ORTI,
who is a voice of reason and he has helped

(34:34):
me with my stress level a lot. But you know,
I have to I have to keep doing that. I
have to keep telling myself, not only does prayer work
for me, meditation works for so many people, and just
to find that center, to calm your center and to
actually radiate positive feelings out board that helps people. You

(35:01):
don't have to be a person of a Christian faith
or or you know, a Hindu faith, or to a
faith or whatever faith to understand that that does work.
Speaking to yourself in positive ways, speaking to yourself as
a lucid person. You know, yeah, everybody says, oh, you know,
the voices in my head they're they're you know, fighting,

(35:23):
and you know, blah blah blah blah and everything. But yeah,
the voices in your head do fight. Again that sometimes
they will fight. Sometimes one will say, you know, if
I do this, like say, for example, you're on a diet,
I could have I could have a bowl of ice cream.
I could do that because I've been very good for
the rest of the week. But here comes another voice
and tells you, you know what, that's going to lead

(35:45):
you down the path to eating more ice cream and
justifying it every night. Maybe maybe you should substitute the
ice cream with you know, a gram cracker or you know,
a spoonful of sugar just to quell the sugar, you
know whatever. But you do have those voices talking back

(36:06):
and forth to you, and when you talk to yourself
in a good way, like you matter, it does actually
go forth and help you.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Yeah, I mean, and this is something that I figured
out the hard way over the years, because with everything
that I've been through, I tell you, I took a
lot of what happened to me rather self consciously, Like
you know, the eye that doesn't look the right way,
the limb and all these things were things that I
assumed everybody saw first. So I would normally be the
first one starting to make fun of myself to try

(36:42):
to hope to try to hopefully curb anybody else from
doing it, because I'm like, if I'm picking on myself,
they're gonna probably not pick on me as much. One
That was a bad plan because it doesn't usually work
that way. Normally they just think you're cool with it
and then start picking on you anyway I am now,
but I wasn't then. I mean, I have back into
my skin over the years, so it doesn't bother me

(37:03):
as much as it used to. But I noticed that
because I was always so hard on myself about how
I looked and how I felt all the time, I
started seeing it reflected and how I saw myself in
the mirror. My actual perceptions of who I was in
the mirror started to change because of the jokes that
I made about myself all the time. And that was

(37:25):
when I realized that I really, I really needed to
start working on my own self image more than anything else,
because I was my own worst enemy. There were so
many things that I could have been doing that I
chose not to do because I was afraid to do
them because I thought people would see this, you know
what I see when I see in the mirror. And
then I started doing these things anyway, and I realized that,

(37:46):
you know, not only do I like doing them, I'm
good at them. I mean, you know, every job I've
taken since I had to shut my company down, I've
wound up being the guy teaching other people how to
do the job because I'm good at it.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
We are our own worst critics. And I'm I'm turning
fifty nine this year, and it's still very difficult for
me to see what other people tell me they see
because all I see is what people used to tell
me when I was younger, and it's hard. It's hard
to get rid of that image when you're right, that's

(38:24):
reflected in the mirror, because that's what they told you.
You look like, you know, And you know, I've had
that issue with one of my sisters, who you know,
says she absolutely never said anything like that to me ever, ever, ever,
And I'm like, I have witnesses the other two sisters,

(38:48):
and she's like, I did not, How could I say
something that mean? And of course my sisters will sit
there and go because you have absolutely no filter, and
you actually think that if you tell us something, you
think you're doing it out of kindness, and so we
had to learn to take it in a kind way.

(39:09):
But you're never kind with it. And she has no filter.
I mean, seriously, it's like, I'm I I but because
you know, she's we're older now and everything we can
she can actually she's she's diluted it, you know what

(39:30):
I mean. And I just take everything astride and I
and I do it and I know that she's not
out to hurt me, so I take it as a
constructive thing and that's fine. Like today I had to
call her because she ordered paint for the project that
my mom has me doing and I can't get this
paint can open so I call her up. It turns

(39:53):
out they put this huge plastic ring around the lid
of the paint can to prevent the pain can lid
from popping off during transit, but they didn't tell you
how to remove it. So I had to call her
and she said, just grab, you know, some a monkey
wrench and just pry it off. And I was like, okay, fine,

(40:14):
you know, and she's like, wow, you look awful. What
happened that? Because we were on video and I looked
at her and I was like, I have literally been
working all this thing since eight o'clock and I never
criticized your videos when you post them on Facebook while
you're doing drywall, So shut up. And she's like okay,

(40:38):
I and she and she gets in she says, Okay,
I did not mean that the way it sounded. I
meant I was concerned because you do look like maybe
you were coming down with something like you were ill.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Maybe you should have included the context.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
Yeah, And I was like, context would have been nice.
But you know, like I said, she does it out
of con and she just has no COPD And there
are people like that in our lives too. I mean,
they really have no filter. But there are some that
go out of their way to make sure that every
single barb lands, and those are the people that you

(41:16):
need to remove from your life. And sadly, I actually
had to remove a couple after the Charlie Kirk assassination
because I was shocked that these people who were close
to me had absolutely no sympathy for this man or
for what happened at all. So that was my red line.

(41:40):
And you know, I told that to other people in
my family and I said I had to. I couldn't
do that, and they were like, You've never done that
at all, You've never done anything like that. I was like,
I've found I'm seeing in real time people embracing evil.

(42:06):
And there was an interesting tweet that somebody said I
and I forget the handle, but the name was Cobra
and not are not Cobra Commander, but another guy and
he actually said that, after having witnessed the way people
acted about the assassination, he is now very open to

(42:29):
the possibility of faith, not because he is sure that
God exists, but because he's witnessing evil in real time.
And you know, a lot of people in the in
his threat said if you're if you can see what
evil is. That means that God has opened that then

(42:53):
you're finally walking through the door that God has held
open for you. So just keep walking. And and it's true,
that's what I'm talking about, that chasm that has opened up.
You have a faction that has actually relished what happened
to a human being with such and they've embraced it

(43:14):
so hard that they don't realize that for them, this
is evil. This is they're embracing evil. And where there
is evil, there is also good. And you're seeing that
coming around. Like you said, a lot of kids in
college and people who had never even heard of Charlie

(43:36):
Kirker now looking up his videos and you know, doing
deep dives about him because they keep hearing, oh, he
was a racist, misogynist, you know, transferred blah blah blah
and all that stuff. And I'm like the one guy
who wanted to talk and every time somebody had a
different opinion, he was the first in line. That's the
guy that was a racist, homo, at transphobe, and at

(44:01):
every pobe.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Really look at history. Though all of the great U
nine ers in history have been killed, all of them,
this is not a new thing. But again, you know,
it's just watching all of this play out in real time.
And I think the fact that this isn't the only
person that I've heard this from, because there's been a

(44:23):
couple of people that I know that were like, I'm
still not sure there's a God, but seeing so much evil,
I have to believe there's something to counter that. And
to me, that's enough. That's enough to that's enough to
start the questioning phase. That's enough to start looking for answers.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
Right.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
And the fact that you know, last Sunday, I'm pretty
sure everybody's church attendants went up by at least one
hundred percent last Sunday.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
Well, I can't gauge mine because it was a feast
and it was a day, it was a day of
obligation for us.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
So again, didn't you guys just do one of those
a couple of weeks ago?

Speaker 2 (44:57):
Yeah, yeah, we have eight we have eight in the
in in in the liturgical year. So but so I
couldn't tell. So the true test will be this Sunday.
But you know that that that leads me into one
thing that I did see that I really that really

(45:18):
kind of hurt to see, and that was from the
Christians that were saying, you know, if your pastor, if
your church does not speak about Charlie Kirk, just walk away.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
That was a bridge for me.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
Here's the thing. We don't go to church to talk
about Charlie Kirk. We go to church to commune with God.
God is what we go there for. And I understand
that they for them, they were testing to see whether

(45:55):
or not the church would acknowledge what happened to a
good man, a good faithful man, a faithful servant of God,
because Charlie was completely But you can't put your church
in that crosshair or with that litmus test, because that's

(46:17):
not what the church is there for. That's not what
your priest is there for. So I would venture to guess, hey,
rather than do that, rather than test that way, do
it in a communal way, like after church in the
community center every you know, my church, we have coffee

(46:38):
after church and see what goes there. I couldn't do
it last week because I had to I had to
call my in law, I had to come home and
do something. I forgot what it was. But do it
when they're outside of the church and see what the
reactions are and see what they're taughtalking about and all

(47:00):
that stuff. That's how you gauge how impactful Charlie. Wise,
you don't. You don't do that to your church. Don't
walk away from a church simply because they don't mention Charlie.
Do You have to understand Charlie would not have wanted
to be mentioned in such a manner. I mean, he

(47:21):
certainly did not want to be in any body scope
crosshairs either, But he certainly doesn't want you to or
he wouldn't want you to judge a church simply because
they do not mention his name. And I understand that

(47:44):
when it comes to certain Christian denominations, when people die,
they become saints, and Catholic Church has a certain hierarchy
of saints which is totally different. So, but I've seen
some deification of Charlie that has really bothered me. It's

(48:08):
kind of the same way they did it with Trump,
the same way they did it with Obama. I don't
like that. I really don't like that, and I'm pretty
sure Charlie wouldn't like it either, to be honest. But
you know that said, that's how I feel about the
whole church situation now, as far as the faith situation,
it has been incredible to witness so many people actually

(48:32):
starting to question things and to seek answers and to
start going back to church, and they're very open about it.
There was this young lady and one of the one
of the rock groups. I'm in, Yes, I'm in a

(48:53):
rock group. I mean like the Painted Rocks, not the
you know, the guitar type of rock group.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
But oh, come on, everybody knows about your secret jam
jam sessions. You don't have to.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
But she had questions, you know, She's like, I don't
even know where to begin as And somebody said, the
first thing you do, go buy a bible. If you
don't have one, Okay, just go buy a Bible, and
then sit down and just open it and see if
you can understand anything that's in there. If you don't

(49:29):
understand it, just read it again and read it a
third time. And if you're confused, go to the beginning
of that book. Regardless of which book would wherever you land,
go to the beginning of that book and start reading,
and then you start hearing. You'll start hearing God in
your soul, and you will be incentivized to actually go

(49:52):
seek out a church. And that was one, you know,
one person's you know, counsel to her. I simply old
any of your friends, will you know, just ask your
immediate friends, Hey, what church you go to? Can I
go with you? And I will tell you right now.

(50:13):
Almost every single church I've ever been to, I've been to, synagogues,
I've been to you know, obviously, Catholic churches, Baptist, Methodist, Episcopalians, Presbyterians.
They all have a little second. They all say any
new people coming, any new visitors today, and they ask

(50:33):
you to stand and they welcome you. And then you know,
I was given a cute little packet. I was at
a my mom and I were traveling, so we had
to stop at a church I'd never been to because
we didn't want to miss Sunday.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Nice.

Speaker 2 (50:50):
And they gave me this little package of welcoming and everything.
And afterwards, you know, they approached me and said, would
you be interested in, you know, perhaps talk to us
about becoming a member. And I have to explain that
we're actually just traveling through that I was member, you
know where I live. And they said, wow, and you

(51:11):
stopped just for church. And we looked at each other
and said, well, yeah, so that was you know, but
every church will welcome anybody. They're they're they're very welcoming
because that's that's what churches do. So to see people

(51:34):
actually being shy because they don't know if they're going
to be welcome, you know, they really don't understand what
the you know, how how how the church is they
you know, it just and it's it's kind of cute
having to explain, well, you know, don't worry, just do

(51:54):
this and you know, just show up. That's all I
can tell you. Just show up. And I have seen
video after video of people saying, you know, I have
not gone to church for twenty years. And after this,
something spoke to me and I went back to church

(52:15):
and it was like my heart opened up and my
tears wouldn't stop. And I don't think. I don't know
if I was crying for Charlie Kirk, or I was
crying because I was back in church, or I was
crying because of this or because of that, But for
whatever reason, all of that crying actually just made me

(52:36):
feel a lot better. And so you're seeing all of
this this awakening, and like I said, it's not all Christian.
I see it with you know, several people of the
Jewish faith have expressed the same thing. This was a touchstone.
This assassination was actually a touchstone, and it was, in

(52:57):
my opinion, a litmus test for our culture. And in
this case, it this tested not it It didn't go
the way most people, you know, expected it to go.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Well, I mean, and the thing about it is, these
things rarely do. They expected everybody to go shrink and
hide in the corner. Oh my god, he's dead now.
We're just gonna we're just gonna shut up now because
it might be us next, you know what. That's how
their side works. That's not how our side works. Our
side gets pissed. It's like, wait, and that's been my

(53:38):
thing the whole time, you guys, And they're still doing it.
Like I just saw a post from somebody else and
that you know, and I didn't even pay attention ano
their name, but I guess it's some leftist podcaster. I
said down with Jessica tar Lofe today and talked about
how the right is refusing calls for unity from who
from where. Y'all aren't calling for unity, y'all are calling
for submission. There's a big difference. Only submit to one person,

(54:01):
and I think that years ago, not submitting to anybody else.
And that's I think the thing that they don't count
on because the thing that and I think a lot
of former leftists and people that are starting to wake
up are finally starting to see it too, because the
left has almost zero anchor point in their life because
to them, this existence is it. Humans are the pinnacle

(54:22):
of society. They're at the top of the game. There's
nothing after this. We were born, we live, and we die,
and that's it. They don't have any hope for the future.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
No, no, but you're right, but it goes beyond that.
They don't have any hope for the future because they
completely dehumanized the human race. It is vital. It is
essential that they dehumanize us they humanize themselves. That is
the whole basis for why abortion is so important to
these people. The dehumanization of people is important for them

(54:55):
to actually get their agenda done. And their agenda is
very self centered. Their God is themselves, their own self,
that's who they worship. This is why the left is
so destructive. And I I think you explained it a
lot better than I can. The whole thing about turning

(55:17):
the other cheek? Remember that?

Speaker 1 (55:21):
Oh yeah, I remember?

Speaker 2 (55:23):
And I you know, somebody somewhere, I don't know where
I was at. I want to say it was book faces,
but somebody actually mentioned something about turning the other cheek.
You know, That's what Charlie would want us to do.
It's like, no, Charlie wanted us to still talk to
each other. He wanted us to discuss things. He didn't

(55:44):
want to turn any cheeks. He wanted you if you
were going to slap him, he wanted you to explain
why you did it. He wanted you to explain the
rationale behind your attack. That's what he wanted. There's no
turn the other cheek now. And frankly, I ran out
of cheeks. I only have four. I'm done. I'm not

(56:06):
gonna do that anymore. I'm you know, And it's Turning
the other cheek is not for something like the assassination
of a great voice.

Speaker 1 (56:17):
Well, turning the other sheek doesn't even mean what they
want you to think. It means these are the people
that want to paint Jesus to some granola love and
tree hug and hippie. That wasn't Jesus. Jesus was a
change maker of his day. Jesus was here to inspire people,
and he did so. All these people to talk about
how Jesus was a socialist because he fed the poor

(56:37):
and took care of the sick. No, he did that
with his own hands, and he built his own ministry
doing those things. He didn't rely on the government to
do it. He didn't say, here, Caesar, take my tax
money and help this person get better. He figured he
did it. Now. Granted he has miraculous powers, I understand that,
but he's still He fed the poor. He didn't say, here, Caesar,

(56:59):
take my money and feed these poor people. He fed them.
He didn't say to his followers, let Caesar have all
your tax money so that he can feed the poor
for you. He said, no, you go do it. Just
like this whole thing with Jesus being this beat nick piece,
nick he never was. One of the things that astounded
me after seeing the way Jesus behaved in the temple
when he started flipping over tables is realizing that that

(57:22):
man knew exactly who he was, and.

Speaker 2 (57:24):
He knew he was whipping people to.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Exactly whipping people and flipping over tables. That man knew
exactly who he was, which means at any point in time,
he could have pulled himself down off that cross and
wiped everybody off the map and said, Father, I tried.
But he didn't because he knew what he was there
to do, and that makes what he did so much
more powerful if you understand exactly who he was, because

(57:48):
he wasn't some weak creature who was sent here to
die for no reason. He came to die for me
and you so that we had the ability to start
communing with God again. Because from the moment Adam and
Eve comme did the first original sin, our communication with
him was cut off. The only way it was even
reinstated for short terms was through animal sacrifice. Jesus became

(58:10):
the ultimate sacrifice, so we don't have to do that anymore.
He only asks one thing of you. The first thing
he ever asks of you is to believe that I
am who I say I am, so that I can
bring you back to the Father. The rest he will
work with you on. He doesn't tell you to clean
yourself up. He doesn't say come to me when you're ready,
come to me when you've cleaned up your house. He says,

(58:30):
come to me now, I will help you with the
rest of it. That was one of the biggest parts
of Charlie Kirk's message, and he got killed for it.
I firmly believe that is one of the main reasons
they killed him, because he was one of the most
effective preachers of our day. I put him on par
with Billy Graham at this point because not only was
he doing what Billy Graham did and doing what Rush

(58:52):
Limbaugh did, but he was doing them together, which is astounding.

Speaker 2 (58:57):
Yep, this is they you know, this is why it
was important to take him away from us. But what
they didn't understand is you didn't take him away. You
never you can never take somebody like that away. The
impact that Charlie made, whether you believe, whether you agreed

(59:21):
with several of his positions, he still made an impact.
He made enough of an impact that people actually are
trying to erase him. Right now. You have somebody, you
know what, I've actually seen a lot of the people
as saying I may not have agreed with him, but
he didn't deserve this, and blah blah blah. What bothered

(59:43):
me about some of those people who are famous people
you know or whatever, was that they didn't believe their comments.
They let people say, oh, well, he deserved it, and I,
frankly had I been a big influencer, and i'd seen
that in one of the comments that I made after saying,

(01:00:04):
you know that if this was extremely you know, horrifying
and wrong and that we need to come together as
a country, and seeing something divisive like that, I'd banned
that person. I'd kick that person off. I mean, but
a lot of them were not policing them, and I'm like,
it's because the more comments you get, the more monetization
you get, so for them, it's still a business. But

(01:00:28):
I did see some that I was surprised by, and
I think the biggest surprise for me was Jamie Lee Curtis,
because I didn't see that coming. That was definitely not
on my bingle card at all. She was she broke
down during the podcast. She actually admitted she did not

(01:00:52):
agree with him. She has a transgender child as well,
one of her kids as transgender or whatever, so for her,
you know, she did believe all the all the bad
things about him and everything, but she understood that he
didn't deserve this, and she understood that he was a

(01:01:13):
good and faithful servant of God, and that this was
this man was taken from a family, He was taken
from you know, his friends, he was taken from from
people who you know, admired him and learned a lot
from him. And she broke down for that, For breaking

(01:01:38):
down in tears about what happened, people are trying to
cancel her.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:01:43):
That is how vile things have become.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
I mean, and this is part of the problem that
I've been coming to terms with. And it's something and
this is something that I would have shot away from
saying even six months ago. I have now come to
determine that we are in a fight between good and evil.
And I don't say that lightly because these people, especially
if you've seen some of the posts on social media,
these people are demonic possessed. I'm almost willing to bet

(01:02:10):
you that there's something inside of them that is so
broken and twisted anymore that that that they're just gone,
because it doesn't make any sense any other way, because
when you see the rational people that are still left
in their party walking away in the numbers that we've seen,
then then this is why I say, I think what
will remain are the people that just they're just gone.

(01:02:33):
I mean AOC spent time again on the floor today
talking about how racist and misogynist Charlie Kirk was. You
know what, say anything you want to say about him
at this point, because all you're doing is pushing people
from your side to go find stuff so they can
support you, and they're finding out you're full of crap.
So please keep saying it. I don't even want anybody

(01:02:53):
who's talking crap about him to be silenced anymore, because
it's backfiring in ways that they're never going to see coming.
Because I've seen this from more or five different people
that were like I started going to these videos because
my side was saying how terrible he was, and I
can't find it now. So now even I'm starting to
be sad about what happened, and they told me that
I should hate this guy.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):
A lot of people are actually coming to the realization
that you know that they're watching. Like you said, it's demonic,
it's evil in real time. This is happening in real time,
and I don't think people expected it to. Some people

(01:03:38):
have a good, eh, okay, mediocre grasp of good versus evil.
Evil exists to define what good is. And now they're
seeing it live and in real time, and a lot
of people are having, like serio, come to Jesus moments

(01:04:01):
over it. I say that, you know, like literally come
to Jesus as in they're going to church. But others
are just like recognizing that there are there is a
faction that is working hard to completely delete the other
faction in every way.

Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
But speaking of one of those come to Jesus moments,
this is a very short clip kind of outlining that
very same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
So my name is Gavin Biggs.

Speaker 10 (01:04:38):
I'm so very strong as Ohio, and I just want
to say that Charlie Kirk is the main reason.

Speaker 6 (01:04:48):
Excuse me, but it's.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
The main reason for me finding my faith against.

Speaker 10 (01:04:54):
After ten years of me not reading any scripture, strong.

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Not stopping foot in church, not even making a prayer.

Speaker 8 (01:05:05):
The day that he was taken from us, I opened
the Bible.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
I asked God, please take me instead, because we needed Charlie.
We needed him, and.

Speaker 4 (01:05:25):
I don't know who's gonna take his place.

Speaker 8 (01:05:29):
God, but God, bless God, bless America.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
Please give us our country back.

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
There are so many of those stories out there right now.

Speaker 1 (01:05:46):
They're everywhere. That's honestly one of the reasons why. And
I'll be honest, I wanted every person who was talking
smack about this man in the first few days to
be just completely nuked from the Internet. And this is
coming from somebody who until September tenth was calling himself
a free speech absolutely, but you know what, I'm kind
of back there again because again, every time these people

(01:06:10):
attack him, it drives more and more people to go look,
and they're they're either changing their minds about him or
they're reinforcing what they already knew and saying these people
are crazy. So I don't I don't want anybody silenced
over it anymore. I mean even I'll even be honest,
I don't even really want Jimmy Kimmel to be taken
off there. And I understand why they're doing it. It's

(01:06:31):
not the reason why they left want you to think
it is. His average viewership is one hundred and twenty
nine thousand people in his market. During his time slots,
he needed nothing health And the funny thing is, James
Woods just put out a post about it not an
hour or so ago. It's like I put out one
post the other day and got twenty two million impressions,

(01:06:53):
and I'm not charging anybody for that. This guy can't
even get one hundred and twenty nine thousand impressions or
a hundred twenty nine thousand viewers, and he's on and
how many markets quite a few, which means nobody was
paying attention to him anyway. So I understand why they're
doing this. I understand, I mean, I still, honestly, I

(01:07:14):
think in a few weeks we're going to find out
this some of this was one to cool the temperature
because Sinclair's trying to make this year. I think it
was Sinclair. I know it's the other one next next
Start is in the middle of some big merger deal
that's worth billions of dollars, and they were afraid that
this this was gonna mess with it. But I also
know that both Colbert and Kimmel's contracts are up in

(01:07:37):
twenty twenty six. I think the networks are playing hardball
with these guys because they're not willing to understand that
they can't continue to pay one hundred million dollars a
year to pay their salaries, pay their riders, produce their
content when they're hemorrhaging forty to fifty thousand dollars a year,
so I think this may be an attempt at kind
of a of a basically a point of convenience slash

(01:08:02):
hardball at the same time.

Speaker 2 (01:08:04):
Could be Yeah, I mean I I was when word
came down that they were going to suspend Kimmel, you know,
blah blah blah, and they yanked him for several affiliates.
I was of the opinion that, you know, why him, uh,

(01:08:27):
the networks. I mean, their media is constantly lying to
us and we catch them in Lize all the time,
so I think this was a convenient thing. You're right,
there was like finally he did something that that that
goes against his contracts, so now we can do something
you know that.

Speaker 1 (01:08:44):
I was so sorry. I don't mean to step on you.
But what finally pushed them over the edge wasn't even
what he said on Monday. It was when they tried
to talk to him about what he said on Monday
and asked him what his plan was to try to,
you know, maybe calm the waters a little bit. So
we got back to them on Wednesday until them what
his plan was. I don't know if you've seen the
article about it, but his plan wants to triple down,

(01:09:04):
and that's when people started panicking because they're like, we
don't have control.

Speaker 2 (01:09:10):
Already makes a good point. They want him gone because
it sweeps. So I totally believe. I mean it. You know,
at what point do you keep something up there, regardless
of the narrative that you want to push, the agenda
that you want, you don't want up front and center.

(01:09:33):
I mean, when you start acknowledging it, we're not making
any money out of this, and we're actually starting to
lose money on this deal. What do you do? One
thing you can do is tell him, hey, you need
to start being funny again. You need to change it up.
You need to make changes to your entire program. You

(01:09:55):
can't keep having just democrats coming into your show to talk.
You need to This is supposed to be a variety show.
This is what a lot of you. The talk show
was supposed to be a variety show. You were supposed
to bring in people from all walks of life doing
all sorts of weird things. I still remember when Johnny
Carson would have the guy that was spinning plates, right,

(01:10:18):
I remember that distinctly. I remember seeing clips when I
want to say it was Carol Burnett when she was
first on was it Ed Sullivan? Was that her first
one or the Tonight Show one of the two, but
you know what I mean, and she was just starting
off and she was a comedian and they would they

(01:10:42):
would showcase up and coming comedians time to give him
a break and they had gosh, you know, it just
it just it went away from that. And so now
you started having celebrities who were pushing their videos or
their i mean, their movies or their you know whatever.
You had sports stars, you had you you walked away

(01:11:05):
from serving the everyday person who wanted to see fun
things that were out there, the different things that you
could find in our culture. That that was one of
the big gets, you know that. I remember when Rosie
O'donnald had her show, and her show was fantastic. I'm
not gonna lie. She had everybody on. She had people

(01:11:30):
from all walks of life, you know, just whatever. And
then of course the thing with Tom Sella happened, and
then she just lost her every loving mind and then
you know, just tanked after that. But for a while
that show was great because she was doing she was
actually bringing everyday people.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
Yeah, I mean and Almish and I talked about this
a little bit on Wednesday night. You know, when these
shows began, which I think one of the very first
ones that I ever remember was the Adullivant Show, which,
to answer your question, she was on that show a
total of five times, first time was January sixth, nineteen
fifty seven. One of her most notable moments was when

(01:12:06):
she complained that one of her times on the show,
she was on there with Elvis Presley and she absolutely
bombed because everyone was there to see Elvis and she
was mad about it. I thought that was good, but yeah, so,
I mean, but the thing about it is those shows
weren't about the host now, they were about the acts

(01:12:28):
that were coming to talk to the hosts and the
people that you know, the movie stars and the authors
and the stand up comedians and even the variety show
of folks. I mean, in Amash and I talked about
this on Wednesday Night. There was a time when, you know,
getting onto Carson, even after Ed Sullivan Show, was a
career launcher for a lot of folks. And if you've

(01:12:49):
ever read half of Hollywood's memoirs from that time, they
will tell you that getting onto Tonight show launched my career.
Being able to do a five minute set on the
Tonight Show changed my life. Being able to play one
of my songs on the Tonight Show changed my life.
Being able to promote my book on the Tonight So
changed my life. That's what these shows used to be about,
and that's when America was glued to them. If they

(01:13:11):
wouldn't get back to that again and not naked about
Oh we have Jimmy Kimmel, So we're gonna make the
show all about Jimmy Kimmel because we think he's funny,
and most of America thinks he's full of crap, and
we haven't figured that out until just now.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
I think I don't. I gave up on watching late
night TV, but I decided to watch it for a
while when the news of Colbert came, so I wanted
to see his show. It was every pair of direc
I did Kimmel, I did Myers. I still remember Conan.

(01:13:45):
He wasn't too bad. Valence was about the only one
that actually stuck to being a talk show, and he
was pretty mild about the whole politics and all that.
He's never struck me as being rabbid. One way or

(01:14:07):
the other. So I I do think Ordi is right
in that balance, the biggest winner here because he's pretty safe.
I think. I don't think he's you know, done any
anything to cause waves or anything.

Speaker 1 (01:14:20):
Well, he survived Late Night Survivor.

Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
Pretty much that's where it's at, you know. So I
wish Colin Ferguson would come back.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
Dude, right because he was he den to Colin Ferguson
was absolutely amazing. As talented as that guy is, he
has some of the worst look and show business I
don't get it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Yeah, I I you know, it's kind of like Ted McGinley,
so which is sad, but yeah, I know, I'm not
gonna lie. He's always so cute.

Speaker 1 (01:14:51):
The longer this goes on, the more I'm hoping that maybe,
you know, media conglomerates are finally getting the memo. But
I really don't think that's it. Like I said, I
will be perfectly surprised if after Sweet Sweeps Week, Kimmel
isn't quietly invited back onto the air, and they'll use
this as leverage to you know, we're gonna have to
cut things if you want to keep your show. And

(01:15:11):
I think the same thing is going to happen with Colbert.
I will, I will hope and pray that I am
pleasantly surprised, But I wouldn't be surprised if for the
next week or so Fallon starts wearing a Maga hat.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
I'd pay back to see.

Speaker 1 (01:15:29):
But I can't take credit for that. I think almost
said at first, but oh.

Speaker 2 (01:15:35):
My goodness, that'd be that'd be funny. But I just,
you know, with with the whole situation with Kimmel, Yeah,
I agree. I don't think he should go away. I
think he should keep talking. And it was funny because, uh,
a friend here on X actually her her boss, had

(01:15:58):
a really bitter experience going to Kimmel show. It was
very forced. She she claimed that it was all for us.
You had to you had to clap, and if you didn't,
you were escorted out, you know. So it She's like,
it's not a it's not a talk show anymore. And

(01:16:20):
I'm like, well, I agree, and it's not. It's not
a talk show. It's actually just another pipe organ for
the Democratic Party. It witnessed how many Democrat senators in
congressman went to see Colbert, how many of them go
to see Kimmel I mean, that's all it is. That's

(01:16:42):
all I saw. So but I agree, I I wish
that he was stayed. They would have kicked him out.
Neither here nor there. Not my job, not my business,
not my monkey's, not my circus.

Speaker 1 (01:16:59):
But again, the whole thing that drives me crazy about
this is everybody talking about how this is an attack
on free speech. This isn't about free speech. This is
about violation of FCC protocol. I don't because and the
whole thing about it is the and this is the
same thing that the leftists kept running ramming down our
throats when the President was, you know, behind the scenes,

(01:17:20):
pressuring companies to censor people for saying things and will
you can't. It's not a violation First Amendment because because
it's a private company, they could do what you want.
So what's the difference here? You know, the these affiliates
are tired of losing money, and he finally crossed the line.
And then when they tried to call him out for
crossing a line, he tripled down on it because he

(01:17:41):
thinks he's a diva. He's not a diva. This is
the same thing that serious XM is going through with God.
Why can't. I never think of his name anymore. I
play mow much because he always calls him like some
weird name. God, I cannot why have I I guess
I've blocked his name from memory because I have his

(01:18:03):
face right in front of me, and I still cannot
say his damn name. But yeah, yeah, I used to
used to do America's Got Talent for a while at
uh No. First first, like shock Jock that you know,
kind of coin there we go, that's the guy. I
don't know why kids couldn't think of his name. But

(01:18:23):
Sirius XM's kind of going through the same thing with him,
So he started putting out all these stuff that he
was walking away from his show because they're complaining that
they're losing money on him now and they're paying him
one hundred million dollars a year and kind of the
same thing. My thing is why and how do all
of these people get the same damn deal, Because everybody
that does any form of talk show lately that's worth

(01:18:44):
of dam is making the same amount of money, well,
not making the same amount of money, but it's costing
the companies the same. You know, his show is one
hundred million dollars a year, Colbert one hundred million dollars
a year, Kimmel one hundred million dollars. That is that
the news? That is that just the new denomena. Shouldn't
they toss out? I don't. I don't understand whether.

Speaker 2 (01:19:02):
Maybe the USA idea is dried up and that's why.

Speaker 1 (01:19:07):
Yeah, it's just you know, and again, you know, and
I know a lot of people are freaking out because
of some of the things that Trump said during the
preskagal on their first one, I would like to point
out that ninety percent of the time these outlets are
basically just making crap up as they go along and
then having to print retractions later. So what I would

(01:19:29):
suggest the President do, rather than threatening to pull licensing,
et cetera, is have Congress get rid of that sneaky
little thing that the Obama administration passed that made propaganda
legal on American soil again.

Speaker 2 (01:19:41):
Yeah, that would be a big step.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
That would be a big step to fixing all of this,
and it would be an easy fix because I'm pretty
sure even some Democrats have figured out how terrible this is.
But I could be wrong, But even if not, still
pass it with all the Republicans, and if they finally
just nut up and get rid of the sixty both
threshold in the Senate, we can do whatever the hell
we want and they can decide to put it back

(01:20:03):
when they're done. I still don't know why they haven't
done that.

Speaker 2 (01:20:08):
Oh because Unit party. But anyway, it has been a
very interesting week. I will say that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:21):
Been an interesting week all over. I think one of
my favorite moments, and I think it was I think
it was Monday this week. I think it was Charlob's
first time back on the five in like a week.

Speaker 2 (01:20:33):
Oh yeah, when Greg went absolute Hiroshima on her.

Speaker 1 (01:20:39):
Yeah, like to the to the point where if this
was around of Mortal Kombat, the dude who had have
been yelling Finisher, that's how bad it was.

Speaker 2 (01:20:46):
I did. I watched that in real time and I
was like, be too, Thank God.

Speaker 1 (01:20:53):
I was like, I was like midsip of a drink
of something and was doing everything I could not to
choke it back instead of spitting it out. When he
was just like you, he's right, he is, though, I mean,
is she well? The thing about it is, as far
as I know, she hadn't been mag goon since Monday.
She was on again today and she started it again. Yeah,
them talking about how you know, Kimmel being suspended is

(01:21:17):
an affront to free speech and blah blah blah blah blah,
because the director of the FCC said you're either fixed
it or we're going to fix it, which is not
actually what he said. It was brought up during an
appearance on a podcast and only said was you know,
this may be something we need to look into. Where's
the lie?

Speaker 2 (01:21:33):
Because if you're making down you have you know, it's
really interesting. They're all eating each other, I swear. Matthew Dowd,
I don't. I don't know if you saw he was.
I think he was on Chuck Todd's podcast or something.
I don't know, but he was really upset about how
the media was handling the Kimmel situation. He he's mad

(01:21:58):
because they're all supporting Kimmel, but he was just completely
written off. And he was the first casualty, as you
all recall after the Charlie Kirk assassination, and and and
and I'm just like, you know, he's got a point
and it won't wake him up. Matthew Doubt is like entrenched,

(01:22:23):
so it's not gonna wake him up. But he is
really legitimately upset and rightly so, that the left has
decided to champion Kimmel and just completely toss Matthew Doubt
to the side. And it was disheartening to see people
that on the same on the network that fired him,

(01:22:43):
actually championing for Kimmel and yet not speaking up for
Matthew Doubt, who is also another example of you know,
being canceled the way these people are saying, you know,
Kimmel did. Kimmel was, and so I was, like, I
was watching him, I was watching the clip, and I

(01:23:05):
hate to say it. I hate to say it, but
I actually felt sorry for the guy because for Kimmel,
you know, he is considered a big celebrity. This Matthew
Dowd is just a news contributor or, you know, opinion person.
You know, it's he's just a contributor. And admittedly his

(01:23:26):
voice is smaller than Kimmel's, but it's probably watched more
often than Kimmel. So I was, I felt I felt
for him in a way because he's right, he's Kimmel
wasn't the only one that was quote unquote canceled. Not

(01:23:50):
that Kimmel was canceled or anything. But you know what
I'm what I'm saying. I think Doubt was the one
that was completely fired, you know, right after the incident
had and in my opinion, he deserved it. But that's
just me. But he's right. Why are you guys championing
Kimino and not paying attention to what happened to me?

(01:24:13):
If I was the first one, I literally, you know
you watch me every day. The channel that was supposed
to champion me completely ignored me. And I'm like, because
that's what they do. They pick the biggest horse that
they can attach their their their narrative or agenda to

(01:24:33):
and that's what they run on. You're not the horse,
not even the.

Speaker 1 (01:24:37):
Jockey wicked the biggest horse. I really thought you were
going to go in another direction.

Speaker 2 (01:24:46):
For Bathew. He's not even the guy that's cleaning the
hoofs okay at this point. But the thing is, you know,
he's right. Dud lost his job for what he said,
which was kind of along the same lines, you know,
of what Kimmel said. But they got to run with Kimmel.

Speaker 1 (01:25:07):
Well, I mean, to be fair, there were a lot
of folks that did try to rally around him. At
the time, they were like, what the hell, wasn't even
that bad. I don't know. I didn't pay that much attention.
I don't really care. I just at that point I
wasn't paying any attention anything the left said or did,
because I was like, you killed the best among us,
and you think we're going to be civil now?

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
No, and I'm done. I actually I'm waiting for the
hammer of fall on my family once they find out
that I i'd some of them, and I'm sure they
will ask me questions, and I am sure the whole
what about you know, if you're a Christian, shouldn't you
like turn the other cheek or forgive and forget? I'm like, yeah,

(01:25:49):
I forgave you. I forgave what you said. But here's
the thing, and this is one of the things that
I have noticed with this faith revival that I'm witnessing.
People are starting to understand that you can have faith
and you can be a warrior for that faith. And
being a warrior for that faith means you don't have
to tolerate the evil around you. I have tolerated it

(01:26:13):
for a long time because erroneously I thought they were
just misguided, or they just felt differently than I did.
They just saw the world in a different way or whatever.
This what happened with Charlie Kirk has shown me that
I was tolerating evil and I had to bring myself
to that point and tell myself, yeah, I can't do that.

(01:26:35):
We're not supposed to tolerate evil.

Speaker 1 (01:26:38):
So this has to be done. Boo brass, boo too soon, man,
too soon. Although I did kind of chuckle a little bit. Yeah,
but it's just the same thing like when I saw
people that I know, people that I care about. Luckily,
as far as I know, I haven't seen any family
members doing it, but people that I used to work

(01:26:59):
with that I can one of his close friends, you know,
reveling in this man's death. I was just like, you
know what I'm done, And that's just it is coming
to terms with the fact that you can, in fact
be a warrior for your faith and realizing that Jesus
didn't take anybody's crap either, and he didn't, I mean,
Helly even rebuked Peter for trying to defend him and
healed the dude that Peter hurt because he knew what

(01:27:23):
he was there to do. But when his disciples overstepped,
he called him out for it. That's the same thing
with Charlie Kirk. And one of the things from this
clip that they all talk about from when Miss Rachel
made her video about pride, and you know, one of
his panelists pointed it out, so he started talking about it.
He said, yes, the scripture says to love everyone, but

(01:27:46):
part of how you love everyone is telling them the truth.
And the truth is some of what we're doing is terrible.
And the thing that she overlooks while she's calling herself
a Christian and talking about pride, and since when his pride,
you know, this great thing and not one of the
seven Deadly sins, is you know, in that same book,
you know, the same exact books she just quoted from

(01:28:08):
a chapter earlier. They're talking about men who lay with
men should be stoned. Yeah, and he never said that
should happen. He's just pointing out that, you know, if
we're following the book, we got to decide if we're
following all of the book or not. You know, I
will say that Jesus gave us an out for some
of this stuff because there's a difference between the Old

(01:28:29):
Covenant and the New Covenant, which is what they used
to call the Old Testament and the New Testament, but
not that much of a difference because and I've said
this to people that I know that are homosexual. I've
said this to people that I know that you dress
as drag queens all the time. They have a mental
illness problem, and some of them will be the first
ones to tell you. Hell, the Chad Feeley's Green and

(01:28:53):
I had this conversation once on Open Timeline, and he said,
you know, I can trace it back to something that
happened to me when I was a kid, so you
might actually be right.

Speaker 2 (01:29:02):
Oh, I remember that. I remember that. Yeah, And you know,
and he and I believe miss Blair White also and
mister gender dysphoria. So there are a few that actually
do recognize it and a just for it, you know,

(01:29:23):
but the majority that don't recognize it. They it has
become a scary thing to witness.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
And I mean, you know, again telling telling you that
you obviously have because let's face it, and this is
one of the points that I make to everybody. The
founders of modern psychology and psychiatry were stoned ninety nine
percent of the time so normal is in fact a
relative term in the first place. But realizing that you're

(01:29:53):
doing things contrary to the survival of your species should
be a very good indicator that you probably have a
screw los more.

Speaker 2 (01:30:01):
I'm just saying, Wow, what a heavy subject we delved
into tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:30:11):
Hey, I gave you an out for the beginning and
you didn't take it. I figured you'd want to do
the whole pomp and circumstance thing over the across the
pond this week, and you didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
Ah, oh yeah, well, I you know, I wanted to
follow it, but I was just I am so swamped
doing stuff here for mom. I just found out that
I have to paint the trim on the outside windows.
That's tomorrow. Yay me. I'm like, why is this even happening?

Speaker 1 (01:30:42):
Gentleman, his name is Brass. He'll be here all week.
Don't forget to tip your servers and try the pork jobs.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
Yeah, don't get to tip the waitresses. He's just funny
way they fall over.

Speaker 1 (01:30:53):
He just posted in chat, well, thanks to weed getting
past in some states, some men do lay with other
men and get stoned. He's got a million of them, folks.
He's got a million of them. But yeah, I mean
I kind of knew this was going to be a
heavier night, which is why, you know, And I will
say this, I am irritated about the whole across the

(01:31:14):
Pond thing because people started making me defend Trump for
not actually breaking royal protocol. Because during the inspection, all
the leftists were like, oh my god, he's walking ahead
of King Charles. He doesn't understand anything. I'm like, you
understands to real, Well, that's just it. He actually broke
protocol with Queen Elizabeth, and he did it on purpose,

(01:31:36):
and he told her he was going to do it
because he knew he was supposed to walk ahead of her.
And he's like, I don't feel comfortable walking ahead of you,
so I'm gonna go ahead and walk beside you. But
what I loved was all the leftist accounts he doesn't
understand anything, and then they posted, you know, Obama walking
with the guard commander. They posted Biden walking with the
guard commander, and they're like, did these guys break protocol too? Yeah,

(01:32:01):
that's how that's supposed to work. But I thought of
you as I'm posting this, and I was like, and
f all of you for making me talk around protocol.
You bet.

Speaker 6 (01:32:15):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:32:15):
It was good to to talk about the the faith
component that we have been witnessing. And you know, I
am I'm not here to prisionitize or whatever however you
pronounce that word.

Speaker 1 (01:32:28):
That words has always be.

Speaker 2 (01:32:29):
Yeah, it's always been difficult for me. It's my second language. Okay,
So anyway, but I hope that even those that are
not looking for faith are they're looking for good. Like
I like to say this to a lot of people,

(01:32:50):
we abide by the Tank Commandments. Eight of those commandments
are secular, so you know, if you're doing those eight,
you're doing okay, right.

Speaker 1 (01:33:01):
And I'm gonna say this as somebody that you know
was a pastor once upon a time and is kind
of feeling the pull again, because I'll be honest, I've
been having some moments of my own because I was like,
I didn't really ever understand how I could do a
political talk show and have my faith be a major
part of it. Then I want now I'm going back

(01:33:21):
and watching all the stuff that I didn't bade as
you do with Charlie Kirk, and I'm like, I guess
I could have been doing that all alone. So I
don't know. I mean, I am there. There have already
been some changes. I don't know how much I'm going
to change things, but there have been some. Like I'm
really trying not to cuss as much, but the one
thing that I will say is this. You know, different

(01:33:42):
denominations are religions. Christianity is a faith. Look for the
faith first. Then if you need the religious guard reels,
find the one that you're the most comfortable with. That's
what I'm gonna say on that.

Speaker 2 (01:33:57):
And remember if you do this, I had to go
the way of the Aggie and look at Catholicism, start
with the archangel Michael. That's where I'm at right now.

Speaker 1 (01:34:11):
I don't know. I mean, I have to admit I
have limited experience with Catholicism, but after attending two Catholic
weddings that lasted six hours and I had to stand
up and sit down and kneel forty five times, I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:34:27):
Just it's not for everybody. But now I've ad the point.
You know, we have several archangels, and most people are
familiar with the archangel Cabral, but a lot of people
don't know that we also Revere are the archangel Michael.
And back in the last century, at the start of

(01:34:50):
the last century, one of the popes actually wrote the
prayer to Saint Michael because he was the warrior angel.
And it is a prayer that calls upon your strength

(01:35:11):
to fight the evil that is in the world. But
not only that, it calls upon you to actually become
a warrior for God as well. And regardless of where
you stand in your faith. And even if you don't
have faith, if you are a true atheist, and that's fine,

(01:35:33):
you are still a warrior for the culture. You are
still a warrior for you know, the good that is here.
Because good and evil that is a concept that anybody understands.
Those are concepts that people without faith understand. So remember
that you're still a warrior, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:35:55):
So I do have one other final thought for anybody
that might be, you know, after the conversation go on, Eh,
maybe I should check out this thing called the Bible.
If you don't have one in your home, you can
download apps on your phone for free. I would start there,
but I will say this after, you know, using apps
and stuff for daily devotionals and stuff for a while,
I have gone back to the actual book because I've

(01:36:18):
noticed I can pay more attention when I'm actually in
the book because I don't have notifications going off on
my phone every five seconds, going oh what's this about,
and then go back to trying to go back to
the Bible again. So yeah, I would recommend purchasing one.
I won't tell you what kind of buy because that's
kind of up to you. I've always done the NIV study,
but you know that's just what I always preached from,

(01:36:40):
so that's what I still use. But anyway, that's kind
of my final thought. Do you have anything else you
want to add alongay out the door?

Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
Try to find the good in people. You'll find it,
trust me, it's there. You got to look for it,
but you'll find it.

Speaker 1 (01:36:56):
Sometimes you really really hard. Try try a ninety nine
cent magnifying brass I hope.

Speaker 2 (01:37:04):
Anyway, So tell us what we can find.

Speaker 1 (01:37:07):
You don't look it out, don't look for don't look
for men to trap. You can find me tomorrow night
pushing buttons for the Front Porch Forensics crew first, and
then you can find me on juxtaposition. Tomorrow night, we're
doing one of the topics that didn't make the final
cut to be our spooky Spooky Month topics. So tomorrow
night we're getting an early jump on Spooky Month by

(01:37:28):
talking cursed objects, and then for October or Juxtober, we're
gonna be talking cryptids for the entire month. So in
October we do an episode every week. Because of how
everything fell, we'll actually be finishing that up on the
first of November. I believe I will be out next
week entirely on Saturday night because I will be performing

(01:37:50):
a wedding. So and then Corn is on hiatus for now.
Once I know for sure what's going on with that,
he'll be back. You know, he's in Britain right now
and he's working on a movie project, so it'll be
a while, but how exciting. That's what happens when you
when you offer a guy that's actually active in Hollywood
a podcast, he's like, I can't do it right now.

(01:38:10):
I'm like, dude, it's all right. So I did. I
did make a joke that I was afraid of his
feelings for a second. Then he laughed it off because
the first time he announced the break, I was like, oh, dude,
we'll hold the seat for you. It's not like Michael
Shanks is going to be stealing your spot again, and
then like five minutes later, I put out a tweet
later that night on Kaylaarn Radio Michael Shank's Reading Room.

Speaker 2 (01:38:33):
I think it's funny that he played a character called
Jonas Quinn and his real name is korn Nemick, And
I'm like, which name sounds more foreign?

Speaker 6 (01:38:45):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
Well that well much like Hollywood. I don't think that's
actually his given name, but I don't think he's ever
told me what it is. But anyway, I think part
of it comes from an name he was given as
a kid, if I remember correctly. But anyway, so yeah,

(01:39:06):
other than that, I'll be back. This is my usual
off week for reels. Well no, actually this would be
my own week for reels. So I guess Monday night,
ten pm Eastern America, Off the Rails kind of the
opening act for Sean at ASHR because he does Edge
of Liberty at ten pm Eastern, then Tuesday Night man
Or Rambla at ten pm Eastern, and then before that

(01:39:30):
in the day slot, I do the Rick Robinson Show.
That one's at ten am Eastern. That's Tuesday through Friday.
We also do the Extended Edition on Fridays. Where we
do weekend news roundup. That's kind of become its own
standalone segment that gets put out later over the weekend too,
for anybody who wants to play catch up. Other than that,
I write for Twitchy, I write for mister Fitzs Politics,

(01:39:50):
so I write for the Loftiest. I write for the
Loftest Party. I also produce a Loftice Party podcast, which
uearsually drops on Tuesdays. You can find me at Roddy
Rick seventy three. You can follow along with everything we
do at Kalern Radio either a Kalum Radio dot com

about you, Aggie, Where can folks find you?

Speaker 2 (01:40:09):
You can find me for now at Hagi the barkeep
on x You can find me at eight thirty pm
Eastern doing the Cocktail Lounge on Tuesday nights with the
Everswave Brad Slager a thirty pm Eastern Friday nights doing
he said, she said, with you, I guess we missed

(01:40:31):
it last week. We missed it the week of the
because it was a horrible week. But the second Tuesday
of every excuse to me, second Wednesday of every month,
we get together for Toxic Masculinity at eight pm Eastern,
and Jeff and I now do a books podcast called
Spirited Books that's a thirty pm Eastern on the first

(01:40:55):
Monday of every month. We're trying to stick to that
schedule so that you know. And of course Duck Stover
is coming up, so the theme being cryptids. That's gonna
be interesting because I have not found you know what,
I'm just gonna break down and buy some Bigfoot lovedlore
and just critize that would No, I don't. I mean

(01:41:23):
I heard that there's such literature being written. I doubt
there's any for Chupacaga because I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:41:30):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:41:30):
I just can't see it happening.

Speaker 1 (01:41:32):
But I'll look. I mean, you know, the the Twopica
is well known for sucking. There might be something there.

Speaker 2 (01:41:40):
Well, I have the perfect movie for disasters in the making,
but I don't know if the guys would actually review
that movie.

Speaker 1 (01:41:48):
Well, all you can do is offer it up and
see what they say.

Speaker 2 (01:41:51):
I will you. You're not gonna believe this, But there's
actually a movie called Tupa covers Versus the Alamo, and
it's with Eric Estrata. You know, I got to own
that sucker. I gotta get my hands on that.

Speaker 1 (01:42:05):
I wonder you're one to review. You want them to
talk about Eric E Strada all.

Speaker 2 (01:42:08):
Night baby and his teeth? Anyway, that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:42:14):
That's it first, all right? So I would like to
thank the what we had? Three fifty on one feet,
one sixty one and another and one hundred and seven
and another one? So what are we at at? Over
six hundred to night?

Speaker 2 (01:42:26):
I guess so I don't know math is I was
told there would be no math.

Speaker 1 (01:42:32):
Well, yeah, we usually reserve math for Sundays, but almost
broke that rule this week. So I'm invoking it early
because you know, so yeah Christmas with her chup of
cabra by, I told you it would be there.

Speaker 2 (01:42:51):
I think he's making these up. Really, CD Gory, Wendy go.

Speaker 1 (01:42:56):
Really it was worth a shot. All right, folks, we're
gonna get out of here and enjoy the rest of
the Friday night. Make the night as good as you
can make it. Right now, if you're on our side
of the argument, you're probably not feeling that great, and
we do understand.

Speaker 2 (01:43:13):
But good night everyone,
