Speaker 1 (00:00):
We got a question for American mama's. Dear mama's what
were you feeling while watching Charlie's memorial?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Well, let's ask American mama's mama, she said, enjoining us.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Now our American mama, Terry Netderville. I'm assuming you watched
the memorial. Were one of those one hundred million streams online?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Yes? Yes, all right?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
So why did you watch? What made you watch all
of it? What made you compelled to do that?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I was gonna say, I just felt so compelled like
everybody else. I was talking to my daughter in law
today and she has felt it since the death of
Charlie Kirks. There's something that has shifted, even inside of her.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Yes, and there is something in this country that has shifted.
I think that's absolutely true.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
It is a spiritual awakening of a sort that is unexplainable.
We just all feel it. You know, you have men
men in my life here were saying, I don't know
why I feel like I'm grieving for this person so deeply.
Even still, he was like, I can't remember anybody else,
and I didn't know that this affected me so much.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I have been I've read on this, and there's a
theory on that, because a lot of people say that
same thing. And the best explanation I've seen is that
if you are a Christian, the Holy Spirit lives in
you and the Holy Spirit lived in Charlie, and so
you feel it because of that connection.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yeah, like you like a like a holy connection. Somebody
great and he wasn't just another Christian. He was somebody
that was helping our young see the light, see the goodness.
He was helping young men, especially understand that there's not
there's nothing wrong with being masculine. He was a warrior
for Christ.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yes he was.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
You know, I'll say this, he was able to do
something that has shift to such agree that I'm seeing
it not only on TV, not only with our leaders,
but with us and I actually I wrote down some
other things, like one of them was Mike and McCoy,
But actually I'm going to go to jd Vance because
he actually said something that I think speaks for a
lot of us. When he was up there, he admitted
(02:16):
something that we all probably have felt for the last
few years. He said, I've always felt a little uncomfortable
talking about my faith in public, as much as it
was important part of my life. I've talked more about
Jesus Christ in the past two weeks than I have
my entire life, my entire time in public life. I
think we all feel like that. You know, I've told
you all know that my sisters and I have a
(02:37):
thread and we talk about this all the time. There
was a time that we even felt uncomfortable saying Merry Christmas.
You know, we were beaten down so badly by the left.
But you know, you can't say Marry Christmas. You can't
say God, you can't hang your flag. You can't and
of course we hung our flag. But I was, yeah,
happy Holidays that you were so careful. And then you
kind of get rebellious towards the left and think, you know,
(02:59):
that's during the time when everybody was being canceled for
everything right, and so for that period of time you thought,
you know what, I'm just not you would say things
like the universe, you know, your higher power.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Hollywood does that. Hollywood doesn't talk about God. Hollywood talks
about the university.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Right.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
So I've noticed that on TV shows all done that.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yes. Well, and there's a little neighbor friend of mine,
she's now a grown woman with children, and on Facebook.
She said, I have hidden behind buzzwords for so long.
I am a Christian. She talked about her grandfather. He
was basically like the Billy Graham of Taiwan. And she
said over here for you know, she's in the military,
that she started kind of hiding that part of her
(03:40):
because she didn't want to be canceled or didn't want
anyone to feel uncomfortable. I think that's mainly what people
think is I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable in
my presence. So I'm not going to say that. Now
everyone's like, we're talking about Jesus, We're talking about our love,
our heavenly Father, the Almighty, the one that takes care
of all of us. And watching and I know you're
(04:00):
going to get to Erica Kirk in the and so
and I can't wait to hear it because people have
to understand when you look at her. And this is
what Tristan, my daughter in law, was saying. Something happened
to a lot of women listening to her. It changed them.
Her strength, her love for her husband, for her children,
(04:20):
for God, her I don't know how she did what
she did.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
It really is staying we're gonna be talking about that
in Bridespot coming up. I cannot think of another person
in American history, and I like reading about American history.
I studied a lot just for fun. I cannot think
of another person in American history that had the entire cabinet,
(04:47):
the president, vice president, all their families, the Speaker of
the House there for a memorial service for a private citizen.
MLK didn't have that. You know what, do you know
what J.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
D Vance said about that? He said, we're all here,
the president, vice president, the cabinet, everybody. We're all here, Yes,
because we were here because we do love him, but
we're here also because it is because of him that
we are able to be here, that we are able
to preside over this country right now. They have given
him so much credit for what he did. And if
(05:18):
you think it, if you know his full story, this
eighteen year old kid, you know, there was one. There
was a guy that got there and I think we
should remember this name, Mikey McCoy. This is like the
right hand to him to Charlie when he got up
there to speak, and you know what, Kimberly and I
can talk about this tomorrow. But when he got up
there to speak. You recognized, okay, the impact that Charlie
(05:39):
had on these people that he brought into turning point
that is now having this global impact on the world.
There's something special going on, and I just give God all.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
The glory, and that's how Charlie would have wanted it.
