Sorry, I just have to start with this 73 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 2: because I saw it over the weekend and I sent 74 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: it to Eddie. I said, we've got to play this 75 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: today on the show. A couple of weeks ago, there 76 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: was a viral photo of the Great William Shatner, one 77 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: of my favorites, and not because of Captain Kirk. I 78 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: actually love William Shatner because of his portrayal of Denny 79 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: Crane in Boston Legal. That's how I have really just 80 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: fallen in love with William Shatner. Now I know he's 81 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: had a lot of iconic roles over the years. He's ninety, Eddie, 82 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: he's ninety four years old, William Shatner. Did you know that? 83 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 6: No idea. He looks amazing for now. I'm not even 84 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 6: going to make it to ninety four. He looks unbelievable. 85 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: So our friend and affiliate out there in Los Angeles, 86 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: Jen Horn, her father, Jen Horn's father is very very 87 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: close to William Shatner personally as friends, and so naturally 88 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: I said to gen Horn, I need to get in 89 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: on that immediately and figure out how to exploit that 90 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: relationship so that I might I've interviewed him a couple 91 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: of times over the phone, but I've never gotten to 92 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: meet him in person. And we're heading out to Los 93 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: Angeles this spring, and so I said, if there's any 94 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: chance in the world to meet the man, I've got 95 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 2: to do it. But he's just so funny to me. 96 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: I just find him and it's intense, like he's in 97 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 2: on it. I used to think he was like a 98 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: buffoon that people were making fun of who took himself 99 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 2: very seriously. Over the years, I've come to understand, even 100 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: at ninety four, he's in on it, and he understands 101 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: that people think he's funny, and so he kind of 102 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: leans into it and plays into it. So anyway, a 103 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago, there's this there's this viral photo 104 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 2: of him in a car. He's driving, he's at a 105 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: stoplight and he's holding a bowl of cereal and he's 106 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 2: eating cereal, and some papar rozzi take the picture and 107 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: it starts floating around online ed people are saying, oh, 108 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 2: William Shatner's officially lost it. He's ninety four years old 109 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 2: and he's driving around town eating cereal in the car. 110 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: You can't do that with a bowl and a spoon 111 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: and the whole thing legit. People were talking about what 112 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: is he doing carrying around cereal driving? And this made 113 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: its way throughout the internet, people you know, starting to 114 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: worry about as well. And I actually thought, because I'm 115 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: a fan, I can bring it up or I'm just 116 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: gonna let it lie. I just thought, well, whatever, it's 117 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: a little off, but he's quirky, he's eccentric. Okay, he 118 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 2: was having some cereal, not something I'd do ninety four, 119 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 2: a little weird, let it go right. Come to find out, 120 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 2: this entire thing was a staged gimmick. It was all 121 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: at an attempt to get people like me to start 122 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: talking about him eating cereal because he's become the new 123 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 2: pitch man for Raisin Brannedy. 124 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 6: It's perfect.

I don't like the 173 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: ability to have released that photo and talked about it 174 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: for a couple of weeks before they released the ad. 175 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 2: That's that's next level. I mean, I am just dazzled 176 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 2: and in total admiration of the Kellogg's people who thought 177 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 2: to themselves, let's get people talking about will Shatner eating 178 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: cereal weeks before the Super Bowl. And there you go. 179 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: And for those of you who were just listening and 180 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 2: you couldn't see it, it's William Shatner. As you gather 181 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: running around just handing out raisin brand to people. He's 182 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 2: tailgating and he's throwing out the little tiny boxes of 183 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: raisin bran and jumping off of cars and crashing into 184 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 2: the tables in the whole bit like he's a football fan. 185 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: That just put me in the best mood, and I 186 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: needed it, because here was the other bit of pop 187 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: culture celebrity news that happened over the weekend that just 188 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: broke my heart. In fact, it happened Friday, the same 189 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: day that I was celebrating Don Lemon's arrest. Katherine O'Hara died, 190 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: and Katherine O'Hara, I think, for my money, is one 191 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: of the funniest, most talented people that ever did comedy, 192 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: never mind women, just people, just a naturally funny, gifted, 193 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 2: talented woman. I've been doing a ton of reading on 194 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: her over the weekend and when I heard about this, 195 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: When I heard about her death on Friday, I told it. 196 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 2: I said, well, number one, we're going to have to 197 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 2: play Catherine noher eclips on Monday, and we're gonna have 198 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 2: to get our buddy Christian Toto in here to talk 199 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 2: about her. She was only seventy one years old, and 200 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: they said she died of a brief illness, whatever that is. 201 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 2: But it reminded me very much of McDonald's death, which 202 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: equally crushed me. And I had no idea he was ill, 203 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: and it turned out he was battling cancer for quite 204 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: a while. Norm McDonald was, but he kept that to himself. 205 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: And I was just talking you to a friend of 206 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: mine yesterday about this. I don't know how you view 207 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 2: it ed, but for me, when funny people now, it's 208 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: one thing if you're just famous or famous for other things, 209 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: but I think there's something unique about people who are comedians, 210 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: who have made their livings making people laugh if they're 211 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: battling some kind of illness. Nine times out of ten 212 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 2: I think it's probably true. These people do not want 213 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: you to know they're sick, and I think they don't 214 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: want you to know they're sick because that's not the 215 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 2: way they want people to remember their entire body of 216 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 2: work after decades of entertaining people and making people laugh. 217 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: I would imagine I'm guessing because I heard nothing about 218 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: Catherine O'Hara being ill. Much like Norm MacDonald, they're intentionally 219 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: private people about things like this because they don't they 220 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 2: don't want people to remember them as being sickly and 221 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: ailing and dying. They would rather people remember them for 222 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: their body of work of making people laugh, is my guess, 223 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: which is why this was such a shock to so 224 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 2: many people. 225 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 8: I think so too, And honestly, Chris, it wasn't until 226 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 8: I met you that I understood that. People you explain 227 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 8: this about Rush Limbaugh, right, like, obviously he was sick, 228 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 8: but when he went on the air, you wouldn't know 229 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 8: that he was sick, and I didn't. 230 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 6: I never thought of it that way. 231 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 8: I thought, especially my broadcasting here, it's like, well I 232 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 8: got a cold. 233 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 6: Oh well, it's power forward. 234 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 8: It's like no, like I never thought of keeping that 235 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 8: to myself or keeping that to yourself or whatever until 236 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 8: you know we started talking about it. But you're right, 237 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 8: comedy specifically, this is someone high profile comedy. 238 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 6: That's just yeah. I would have no idea that she 239 00:11:58,960 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 6: was sick. 240 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: She's so beloved. Do you know that she started working 241 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: with you can't? I guess by FCC. It's funny. I've 242 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 2: been listening all weekend to people saying the word, depending 243 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 2: upon who you believe, and because we want to remain 244 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 2: FCC compliant, Heaven knows, we don't need legal trouble. The 245 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: show Excrement's Creek was one that Christine and I just loved. 246 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: We fell in love with her during COVID, but that 247 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 2: was kind of her. It wasn't her last work. I mean, 248 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: I think she made a second Beetlejuice and another movie 249 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: and all of that after that. But you know, she 250 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: really in the last decade became wildly famous all over 251 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: again for playing Moira Rose in Excrements Creek and so 252 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 2: people really got to know her on Netflix during the 253 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: COVID era, and well, I've got so much to say 254 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: about her and her talent, but man alive is she 255 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 2: going to be missed? And at only seventy one years 256 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 2: of age, no idea she was ill at all. But 257 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: we will, yes, we will be playing some of our 258 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 2: favorite clips of hers talk with Christian about that. It 259 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: was sad, but it gave me a lot of great 260 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 2: reasons to reflect on some hilarious stuff which we will 261 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: today sit Tate, Oh, that's right with Chuck Chuckers.

This is generally the 270 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: way I feel. We're rolling, we're winning, and I refuse 271 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 2: to buy into the propaganda that you and I are 272 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 2: supposed to be glum and dour and pessimistic. And I 273 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,119 Speaker 2: will be damned if I'm going to allow American leftists 274 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 2: to drag me into this morass. My wife said something, 275 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: and I I am going to get into it. Coming 276 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 2: up Christine went to see Millenia over the weekend, the movie, 277 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: and I'll give you her thoughts on it, but one 278 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 2: of the things she was talking to me about it 279 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: was just kind of reflecting on the last year. And 280 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: this is my point. You are purposely being worn down, 281 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: and I want you to know that, and I hope 282 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: it's why you come to shows like this one to 283 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,479 Speaker 2: be reminded why you ought not feel glum and dispirited 284 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: and ground down and worn out, because that's exactly the 285 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: way people in most legacy media want you to feel. 286 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 2: They want you to think as they always do. This 287 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: is always the way it works with Trump for over 288 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 2: a decade. We've been going through this drill. Now he ascends, 289 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 2: he wins, he breaks norms culturally, news, politics, the power set, 290 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 2: whatever that is, and politics or media or both. They 291 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 2: don't like it, and so they start a propaganda campaign 292 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: to grind you down, to make you think, oh gosh, 293 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: if only we could return to when it was normal. 294 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 2: And you know what normal means. Normal means a time 295 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: when things were broken and not working, but you were 296 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: being lied to and smiled about it and fed a 297 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: bowl of excrement. It was not good. It was not better. 298 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: Donald Trump exists politically today because things have been broken 299 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 2: and things have been so stacked against the American working class. 300 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is an entity because the political classes and 301 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 2: the media in this country have failed, and they go 302 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 2: into hyper overdrive when he ascends to power. Multiple times, 303 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 2: we've been through this drill. Now they're trying to thwart 304 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 2: his advances. They're trying to thwart his agenda and his 305 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: accomplishments and make you feel like, oh, if only we 306 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 2: could return. Remember remember when people used to be saying 307 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: that about the ed, the husk, the stupid old man. 308 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: We used to pretend it was president. Oh, I just 309 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 2: wish we could return to something normal, something decent. And 310 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: Joe Biden was normal ed. Remember he was normal. He 311 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 2: was the train riding Senator. He'd been around for a 312 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: thousand years. That's what we need and adult back that 313 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: brings the country back to normal. Remember we went through 314 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 2: this before, b l. We've been through this. This is 315 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 2: not our first rint cycle with chaos seems to be abounding, 316 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 2: and I just wish we could get back to something normal. 317 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: And then the American public inevitably swings back to normal 318 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: and elects someone like Joe Biden and are we better 319 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: for it? 320 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 6: No? 321 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 2: Hell no, no, no no, And then we subsequently get 322 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: lulled back into four years of liberal destruction, only to 323 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 2: find help, Donald Trump. 324 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 9: Help. 325 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: We're drowning over here, and here we are.

New 337 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: leadership is necessary, and the fighting and the consternation and 338 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: the roiling in the streets will continue as long as 339 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: you and I have a pulse and continue to insist 340 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: there is a better way in national sovereignty and laws matter, 341 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 2: that's all. So, as long as you have eyes wide 342 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 2: open about it, you can be happy and a brilliant. 343 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: I've never done that before.

You know, when we were doing the show 349 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 2: exclusively in Philadelphia, I often thought, should we take a 350 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: trip to Punk Satani and broadcast their live? Just wants 351 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: to say we've done it? Never did.

No, I don't care about it. 360 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 2: It's a Pennsylvania tradition. For as homer as you are, 361 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 2: you just hate this tradition. 362 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 8: It's not that I hate it. It's hard to explain. 363 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 8: I just don't care about it. Now like the Kelsey's now, exactly, yes, exactly, 364 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 8: like the Kelty. 365 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 2: No, but Eddie hates anything that is culturally anything.

That was 388 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 8: the follow up to Silence of the Lambs.

I 392 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: mean now that he's agreed to do this. 393 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 8: Film on Millennia, Yes, yes he did. He had a 394 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 8: little bit of a lull. I can't remember what he 395 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 8: was accused of, but in the whole Me Too time. 396 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 6: He was one of the guys. 397 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, so that kind of dings him a little bit, 398 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 8: But I just I can't remember what it was for specifically, 399 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 8: So he's kind of been out of the game since. 400 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 6: Then as far as like mass blockbuster releases. 401 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 2: So this is this movie's about an hour forty minutes. 402 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 2: Christine tells me she went to see it with a 403 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: friend of hers yesterday and she was not alone. This 404 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 2: was a really very successful documentary by all accounts. I 405 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 2: mean it was. It was a big release anyway, even 406 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 2: if it weren't a doc. But in terms of documentaries, 407 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 2: it's right up there. Even Brian Stelter over there at 408 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 2: CNN had to sadly report how well it did, And 409 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 2: it was on a weekend. Incidentally, you know what delights 410 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: me most about this news. I want you to consider 411 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 2: that this weekend, the American left tried desperately to get 412 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 2: people to stop going out and shop or dine out 413 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 2: or do anything. That's when you hear what I'm about 414 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: to play for you. Keep in mind, the left spent 415 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 2: all weekend trying to get you to not go out 416 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 2: and shop. Did that work ed? Did you? Sorry? I 417 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 2: got to check in with you on this one last thing. 418 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 2: Did you find that people near you were not shopping 419 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 2: and dining and going about their lives or did you 420 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: notice any riff raff out there causing trouble? 421 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 6: Not where I am. No, there was no riffraff. Everybody 422 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 6: was in Coal's giant. I'm trying to. 423 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 2: Think of what else target. Yeah, now you couldn't get 424 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: into these places. Well, that makes me happy. That's exactly 425 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 2: my experience. I saw none of this. I mean, you know, 426 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 2: there were people destroying federal buildings for some inexplicable reason 427 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 2: inside major cities, but in most of suburbia where most 428 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 2: of us live, because most of us wouldn't be caught dead, 429 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 2: and most Democrat led major American cities. Today we were 430 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 2: going about our lives and going to see Milania and 431 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 2: dining out and shopping. It didn't work. It didn't impact Squat. 432 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 2: It never does, and Milania did extraordinarily. Well, here's Brian Stelter, 433 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 2: number thirty three. 434 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 3: This documentary is a big success. We're going to get 435 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 3: official numbers from Amazon later this morning, but already, according 436 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 3: to the projections that are circulating in the film industry, 437 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 3: this is the number one documentary in terms of box 438 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 3: office ticket sales in about a decade. This documentary is 439 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 3: another example of the red blue divide. We've seen ticket 440 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 3: sales be a whole heck of a lot stronger in 441 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 3: Republican stronghold areas than we have in big blue cities. 442 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 7: And that was to be expected. 443 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 2: Darn it. Eight million dollar haul, eight million plus, big 444 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: weekend for Milania, big weekend for that film. And you know, 445 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: Christine went to see it and I asked her. I said, Okay, 446 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 2: what was your impression. She said, well, it was clearly 447 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 2: it was not meant to be a independent documentary, she said, 448 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,719 Speaker 2: to be clear, this was this was curated by people 449 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 2: who wanted the First Lady and the White House to 450 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 2: come off a certain way. She said, it was very 451 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 2: very clear to her in the film what she loved 452 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 2: the most was it was clear to her that Donald 453 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 2: Trump absolutely adores his wife. That what you come away 454 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 2: with noticing right away from the film is how much 455 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 2: President Trump thinks of the first Lady Malania, How of 456 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 2: course very stylish she is, and beautiful she is, and 457 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: how beautiful everything is. She has an eye for style 458 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: and things like that. But you know the thing, so 459 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 2: I'm listening to Christine kind of give me her review 460 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 2: of this thing. Here's the thing that I took from 461 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 2: this that she said, there was a good chunk of 462 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 2: the film. I guess that focused on the days leading 463 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 2: up to the inauguration, the night that he was declared 464 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 2: victorious as the election winner back in November, and then 465 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 2: the days leading up to the inauguration, she said, Chris, 466 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 2: I was reminded what a great feeling that was. She said. 467 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 2: They threw a couple of videos of Kamala Harris up there, 468 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 2: and I physically recoiled, she said, And I had forgotten, 469 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 2: And this is my point ed, this is what I 470 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 2: was saying a little while ago. And I didn't say 471 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: anything to her, but in my head, I'm just shouting. 472 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 2: Of course this is true. And this is the problem 473 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 2: with so many of us, I say us collectively. Maybe 474 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 2: not you and certainly not me, but so many people 475 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 2: on our side do this. Mainstream legacy media pounds and 476 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 2: pounds and pounds and pounds us into this place where 477 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 2: we think, oh man, thing suck and Trump really must 478 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 2: be underwater and things aren't going well. And I saw 479 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,959 Speaker 2: another poll that says people don't oom and it grinds collectively. 480 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: It grinds those of us who support Donald Trump down. 481 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: Now again, I'm maybe not you and not me. I'm 482 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 2: not patting myself on the back. I just understand the 483 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 2: game well enough now that I don't allow it to 484 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 2: affect me. I don't consume this stuff, but I can 485 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: tell people that are Trump voters who spend all their 486 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 2: time online and watching cable news. I can tell who 487 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 2: those people are because they become sad sacks, proud. 488 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 6: Of their voter year ago and now everything's lost. 489 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 2: We're getting her butcher keep do you know they see 490 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 2: a bunch of people flamethrowing on social media and they 491 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 2: think that's the world. And I think that all due 492 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: respect to my lovely wife, she does her best to 493 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 2: kind of avoid it too. But when you're just doom 494 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 2: scrolling on Instagram and other things, and all of your 495 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 2: gallpals in suburbia are putting up black squares and solidarity 496 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: with BLM, and you know, ice outs and all of 497 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 2: that crap, you think that's reality. And then you hear 498 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 2: that Milania does eight million dollars in business over the weekend, 499 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 2: and you go see it and Christine says, I'd forgotten Chris, 500 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 2: how great it felt that she lost, how much I 501 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: couldn't stand her, how awful things felt when that pretend 502 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 2: president and Vice President were in the White House, and 503 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 2: how excited I was, And I was reminded all over 504 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 2: again of what an exciting time. 505 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 9: That was, and I thought, hallelujah, it hasn't been that long, 506 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 9: and it's just been over a calendar frickin' year when 507 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 9: this this country was being run into the ground. 508 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 6: Have we forgotten? 509 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 2: Have we forgotten because of ice Out? And Bad Bunny 510 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 2: said something on the Grammys? Have we forgotten what it 511 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 2: was a year ago? 512 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 6: I think we have, Chris, Yes. 513 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 2: Why, how how in God's name can we forget how 514 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 2: rotten things were under that pretend former president? How can 515 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 2: and never mind the left. How does our side get 516 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 2: so ground down and forget that seventy seven million of 517 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 2: us said no, we don't want this crap anymore. How 518 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 2: have we gotten to a place where we forget it? 519 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 2: You may not have the answer. I'm just rhetorically asking. 520 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 11: No. 521 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 8: It goes to something you said a lot at the 522 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 8: end of last year. This revelation addiction is part of it. 523 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: You know. 524 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 8: Obviously there are a lot of things that. 525 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: Are meaning just to remind folks for people that don't remember, 526 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 2: revelation addiction meaning, there are some, for whatever insidious reason, 527 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 2: who claim to be on our side who have done 528 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: nothing but spend the last year telling people that Trump 529 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: is rotten too. So it's not just from legacy media 530 00:26:58,880 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 2: leftists anymore. 531 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 6: That's exactly right. It's split the base. 532 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 8: It's split that you have Marjorie Taylor Green going on 533 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 8: the freaking view now and that to some people on 534 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 8: our side it's like, oh, well, look see now she's reasonable. 535 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 6: It's like, what the hell are you talking about? 536 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 2: Dick Durbin uses ai generated image to criticize the ice 537 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 2: shooting of the pretty guy you saw that last week. 538 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: It's all it's made for your consumption. It's fair. I mean, 539 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 2: he literally generated a photo of Alex Preddy being shot 540 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 2: by a headless ice agent. It was an AI generated 541 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: thing they are using. We talked about this last week. 542 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 2: The left is using AI to make Preddy look like, 543 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: you know, a hunky nurse in scrubs, instead of just 544 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 2: using the photo that truly was his photo. Here USA today, 545 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 2: America's confidence in Trump continues to slide. I told you 546 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 2: about the Wall Street Journal. These young voters are starting 547 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: to regret their vote for Trump. There is a coordinated 548 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 2: effort and I have to keep repeating myself about this. 549 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 2: It is not just from the left. I'm sorry to say. 550 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: There is a coordinated effort to grind you down and 551 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: make you think all is lost. Things are rotten, We're 552 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 2: not doing well. Trump released a video over the weekend 553 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: addressing this. Well, it wasn't his video, somebody else produced it, 554 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 2: and it's quite amazing because it's sort of a retrospective 555 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 2: of remember where we were. And I think this is 556 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 2: a perfect time right now, this February second, is a 557 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 2: great moment in time. Go over to Donald Trump's truth 558 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 2: social account and watch the video he posted over the weekend. 559 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 2: Go watch Milania and just remind yourself rather than listen 560 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 2: to all this revelation, addiction crap and the doom scrolling 561 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: on social media, go remind yourself where we were under 562 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: that pretend president and vice president and get back to me. 563 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 2: In fact, I'll do you one more. Not just does 564 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 2: our side need to remember where we've been, our side 565 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 2: also needs to keep in mind and many people are 566 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 2: not telling you this.

We're supposedly in a government shutdown. 583 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 2: Did you know that you'd be forgiven if you didn't. 584 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 2: But supposedly we're in a government shutdown right now, and 585 00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson says as of tomorrow, oh, he thinks the House, 586 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 2: on a procedural motion is going to be able to 587 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 2: reopen it. I'm not entirely sure what's shutdown? Even when 588 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 2: we shut down the whole government. I don't know what 589 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: a partial shutdown is. What's a partial shutdown versus a 590 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 2: whole shut down? When the whole shutdown isn't something most 591 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 2: of us notice? I don't know. I'm sorry, folks, I 592 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 2: get bored with this stuff. I don't take de bait shutdown? 593 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: What's shut down? Anybody notice? I don't care? I literally 594 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 2: I heard a news report this morning. Oh, Mike Johnson 595 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 2: believes he'll be able to avoid futurement shutdown? What's shut down? 596 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: I got my coffee just the same. Anyway, you should 597 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 2: know from Axios, House Democrat divisions over DHS funding spill 598 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 2: out in private call house Democrats are splintered yesterday on 599 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: a private call over whether to vote for legislation that 600 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: would keep Department of Homeland Security funded for two more weeks. 601 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 2: A half dozen sources on the call said, and it's 602 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 2: a bunch of leaders in the Democrat caucus who were 603 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 2: on this call saying they don't want to keep the 604 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 2: government shut, and they certainly don't want to keep the 605 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: government closed whatever it is over ICE and Department of 606 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 2: Homeland Security. In other words, there are many inside the 607 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: Democrat party who are saying, I think this is a 608 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 2: bad look. I think it's a bad Remember a couple 609 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: of weeks ago when I told you that outfit Third Way, 610 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: that supposedly nonpartisan really Democrats polling firm was warning Democrats, 611 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 2: don't go down this defund the police, defund ice route, 612 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 2: don't do it. That's not where the American people are. Remember, 613 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: go look it up. It's a real story. They polled it. 614 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: The American public does not hate law enforcement. I don't 615 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: care what poll you're being shown. I don't care what 616 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: footage you're being shown. I don't care what protests you're 617 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 2: hearing or watching. I don't care the American public supports 618 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 2: law enforcement, because we all understand the only thing between 619 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 2: us and total anarchy is that thin blue line. Even 620 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 2: the left wingers understand that left wingers have neighborhoods and 621 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 2: homes too. If we don't have law enforcement, if we 622 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 2: don't have enforcement of laws, we have nothing. We have 623 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 2: total anarchy. And even the American left, most Democrat voters, 624 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 2: don't want that. And so I would just say to you, 625 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 2: I don't believe that any of this street theater is 626 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: most of the country. Now they may publicly say it. 627 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: The celebrity class is certainly comfortable saying it because they 628 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 2: all have security, and they live behind gates, and they 629 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 2: have the money to get on a private jet and 630 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 2: fly the hell out of the chaos. You're not going 631 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 2: to find them on the front lines. Of course, I 632 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 2: also see as evidence that Milania did very very well 633 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: anecdotally eight million dollars in the middle of the ice 634 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: out by COT weekend. That's just more anecdotal evidence that 635 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:56,959 Speaker 2: the public, normal people aren't behaving the way you're being told. Furthermore, 636 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 2: Don Lemon is going to go on Jimmy Kimmel's show tonight. 637 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: Don Lemon, of course, arrested on Friday, and he's now 638 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 2: being made out to be this great martyr for free 639 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 2: speech and whatnot of all things. And it's twenty twenty six, 640 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 2: so I guess I shouldn't find it as strange as 641 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 2: I do that I'm saying this. Nicki Minaje said something 642 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 2: on X that I think is rather profound. I actually 643 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 2: think Nicki minaj the Rapper might read this situation better 644 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 2: than most commentators on the American right. And she said 645 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 2: it this way. Quote any Christian, she said it on 646 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:44,959 Speaker 2: X late last night. Any Christian who votes Democrat again 647 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 2: is a fool. They're showing people that it's okay to 648 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: disrupt a church during worship. This is how they truly 649 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 2: feel about you. The veil is lifted, no morals, no integrity. 650 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 2: It's not enough for them to have an opinion. They've 651 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: escalated to physical intrusion of places of worship. The demons 652 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 2: inside of them are so bothered all the time. Nicki Minaje, 653 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: of all people, understands that this is an inflection point. 654 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 2: The left is going to elevate Don Lemon. The left 655 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,760 Speaker 2: is going to celebrate Don Lemon. And I think Donald 656 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: Trump and the DOJ arresting him on Friday have actually 657 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 2: elevated him now, and I think they're taking debit here. 658 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 2: I think this is a road runner coyote trap, if 659 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 2: ever there was one. Set the left celebrating Don Lemon 660 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: invading a church is not going to go well for 661 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: the left. That's my prediction, because I think there are 662 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 2: still things in this country that most of us, regardless 663 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 2: of how we vote, most civilized Americans understand you're a 664 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 2: to peacefully worship without harassment and our need for law 665 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 2: enforcement are critical. And if you don't have those things, 666 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 2: you've got nothing. So let the left cook folks. Doesn't 667 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 2: bother me a bit. I don't know about you. If 668 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: you have yo yo dieted all of your life, I 669 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: certainly have Keto paleo weight watchers, intermittent fasting. You lose weight, 670 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 2: and I have. I've lost dramatic amounts of weight before, 671 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: only to gain it back and then some. And you 672 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: probably kick yourself for it, and you think it's all 673 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,959 Speaker 2: about your own willpower and your own lack of discipline. Look, 674 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 2: maybe there's some of that, but the real truth of 675 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 2: it is it was not strictly about willpower. There is 676 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 2: one thing only that determines whether your body burns fat 677 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 2: or stores fat, and you don't know how to fix that. 678 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 2: Every diet you're ever going to try fails. That's all 679 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 2: that changed for me was looking at it differently, and 680 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 2: PhD Weight Loss told me how to look at it differently. 681 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 2: Doctor Ashley Lucas and I started talking about her program 682 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 2: and why it's worked so well for some of my colleagues, 683 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 2: and how she's different. And so when I went on 684 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 2: this program last year and I began to eat real food, 685 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 2: I didn't have to take any kind of shots or 686 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 2: any kind of gimmicky drugs or anything like that. It 687 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 2: was just purely understanding how my body best metabolizes food, 688 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 2: when to eat, what to eat, and not starving myself 689 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 2: by the way. And here's the deal. You start to 690 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 2: have real victories quickly, and I lost over forty pounds 691 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 2: in under four months time fast. Eddie, our executive producer, 692 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: was so impressed with it. He said I wouldn't mind 693 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: trying it. I said, how much you want to lose? 694 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 2: He said fifty pounds. So we dialed up Ashley Lucas 695 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 2: and I said, can Eddie lose fifty pounds along with 696 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: me here, and she said, oh, absolutely, let's give it 697 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 2: till May. So he started the program. Folks, he is 698 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 2: already halfway to his goal after just thirteen weeks or so. So, 699 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you're talking about over twenty five pounds in 700 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: a matter of weeks. That could be your story. 701 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 9: Now. 702 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 2: I have managed to lose that kind of weight last 703 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,359 Speaker 2: year and coming into a new year keeping that weight off. 704 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 2: That's the first time in my weight loss history that 705 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 2: I've lost that kind of weight and maintained the weight loss. 706 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: Because at PhD Weight Loss they've identified that one thing 707 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 2: about your system that you can kick into action and 708 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 2: help you lose that weight and keep the body working 709 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 2: for you, not against you.

You know, 720 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 2: you would like to believe that after the events that 721 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 2: took the life of Charlie Kirk, specifically in a place 722 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 2: like Utah State University, you'd like to believe that the 723 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 2: rhetoric has been toned down. I know what we've been 724 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 2: seeing in Minneapolis and certainly by many political leaders and commentators. 725 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: The rhetoric has not toned down at all. And someone 726 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 2: who knows about that very well is our next guest. 727 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 2: James Owen is his name. He's the founder and president 728 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 2: of something called Reawaken USA. And to tell us a 729 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 2: little more about the work he's doing and how he 730 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 2: knows exactly firsthand why the rhetoric has not been toned down, 731 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 2: he joins us to talk about it. James, it's really 732 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 2: nice to meet you in person. Good morning, says to 733 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 2: be here. 734 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 12: Good morning. 735 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 2: So first of all, we'll start with the work that 736 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 2: you do with re Awaken USA in an era of 737 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 2: the in the digital era where we're constantly hearing about influencers. 738 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 2: Nine times out of ten when you hear the word influencer. 739 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 2: It's never anything to do with conservatism, right, That's typically 740 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 2: been the space is left wing influence. Left wing. I mean, 741 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: all the celebrities over the last couple of weeks with 742 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 2: this Minneapolis stuff, all the celebrities have been on social 743 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,720 Speaker 2: media talking about you know, the Gestapo and the Nazis 744 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: and blah blah blah blah blah, and many times I 745 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 2: think probably conservatives wonder do we have influencers, meaning we 746 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: as conservatives. I know there are some names we know, 747 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 2: but I think this is the whole point, the impetus 748 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 2: of your company. 749 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, I guess, like when it comes to to influencers 750 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 11: and the conservative palm account of ranges. So you have 751 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,879 Speaker 11: like the ones that stays strictly behind the camera, they 752 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,720 Speaker 11: have podcasts that react to leftists doing crazy things. 753 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,720 Speaker 12: And then you have the cause leaders. 754 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 13: The people like Nick Shirley can Higbee are influencers that 755 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 13: were awaken USA that are out in the field, you know, 756 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 13: either exposing principalities or going up on college campuses and 757 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 13: confronting the students who the adversaries lives are currently in trapping. 758 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 13: So I would say the term of influencer is a 759 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 13: spectrum in our movement. 760 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and well Cam, both Nick and Cam. It's interesting 761 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 2: you mentioned that because they have been I mean, they 762 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 2: have kind of come into their own the work that 763 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 2: they were doing previously, I must confess I didn't know 764 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 2: a lot about, but I know not only has this 765 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: show featured their work recently, but millions of people have 766 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 2: seen their work. They're undercover work that has now become 767 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 2: much more mainstream. I mean that's kind of the power 768 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 2: of this whole notion of influencer. It gets thrown around 769 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 2: a lot, but it actually really does have profound meaning 770 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 2: and theft, and people who are not as sophisticated with 771 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 2: it as you are should get to know it and 772 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,439 Speaker 2: understand it, not fear it. 773 00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 12: Exactly exactly. And I think I think, like when you. 774 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,240 Speaker 13: Talk about influencers and in any other sense throughout culture, 775 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 13: those are the ones that are trying to get you 776 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:06,720 Speaker 13: to buy something. 777 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 12: I would almost say that like people. 778 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 13: Like Cam and Nick are more leaders, you know, like 779 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 13: when when Charlie Kirk did die, one of the first 780 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 13: things Cam did, without hesitation was. 781 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 12: He he got a he got. 782 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 13: A camping table, a couple of chairs, two cameras, and 783 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 13: he went to college campuses to show the adversary or 784 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 13: stayed in that he had not won. 785 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 12: And then moved on from there. 786 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,879 Speaker 13: So I think that, like, you know, you have your influencers, 787 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 13: and then again you have your cause leaders, the ones 788 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 13: that like want to go out there and enact actual change, 789 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 13: and that's what we've started to do here at Reawaken USA. 790 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 2: Do you think I'm intrigued demographically? I think there are 791 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 2: people of a certain age and I'm probably closer to 792 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 2: that of certain age that I'm not that I'd like 793 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 2: to admit, But you know, people just kind of get 794 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 2: to a place where you're sort of in your camp 795 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: and you don't really want to learn new stuff. Technology 796 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 2: for older folks in particular is kind of frightening and 797 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 2: it's like I don't understand what that is and bah, 798 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 2: But the truth of the matter is, I mean, I 799 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 2: have kids twenty one, twenty seventeen. I've come up doing 800 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 2: traditional broadcasting, We've moved into the digital space. I've kind 801 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 2: of got a foot in both trying to kind of 802 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 2: learn as the marketplace grows for digital consumption and less 803 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 2: about traditional broadcast. I'm trying not to be an old head, 804 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 2: but I know that there's a whole generation behind me 805 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: and before me and well before my kids generation. They 806 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 2: don't know anything about traditional broadcast. I mean, it's the 807 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: world in which you trick that I think conservatives need 808 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 2: to get to know better, including older conservatives, is my point. 809 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 2: Who kind of fear it or think, ah, that's just kids, 810 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 2: or that's just fringe or whatever, like that's where it is. 811 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 2: I mean, that's just where we live now. And if 812 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 2: we want to impact the culture, it's the work you're 813 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 2: doing that I think has to be the focus. 814 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 13: No completely, And I would say that, like, you know, 815 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 13: we learned a lot from the old Guard we call 816 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 13: them the old Guard for the market events, the rustlum Baz, 817 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,800 Speaker 13: those guys is standing out and speaking out. In twenty twenty, 818 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 13: it was a very political thing, you know, to come 819 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 13: out against like a culture that was like majorly liberal 820 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 13: or left leaning ideology. 821 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 12: And then now it's more of like a spiritual thing. 822 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 13: You know, what we're seeing right now with the rhetoric 823 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 13: or the culture is that there's almost a complete intolerance 824 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 13: towards Christians or the followers of Christ. And you know 825 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 13: it's not so much as they have power anymore. What 826 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 13: we've seen after Donald Trump saw after his inauguration is 827 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 13: culture meaning more right. And what's happened is we have 828 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 13: pushed leftist ideology into a corner. And just like any 829 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 13: like any animal or anything that's that's pushed into a corner, 830 00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 13: it wants to get out. 831 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 12: So we saw that with Charlie Kirk. We also saw 832 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 12: that with with with Ella. 833 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 13: Cook at Brown University, and we're seeing that, you know, 834 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 13: on campuses as well. We've got in we've got a 835 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 13: little bit over twenty three death threats, most of them 836 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 13: online and then in person at the at the University 837 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 13: of Utah at the beginning of January where we received 838 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 13: a direct terroristic threat where the student was making like 839 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 13: pump shotgun motions at us and saying that he wanted 840 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 13: to kirk us and he was like immediately arrested by 841 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 13: cops there in charge. 842 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 12: So it's still out there. It is still out there, 843 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 12: and it's still rampant. 844 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: Reawakened USA is the company. James Owen is their founder 845 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 2: and president. I read in places like the Wall Street 846 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 2: Journal last week they say, Oh, young people are really 847 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 2: getting disturbed at what they're seeing with ice and the like. 848 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 2: And I know you're not here to talk about ice 849 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 2: per se. But forgive me if I'm a little dubious 850 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 2: of the Wall Street Journal's assessment of what young people 851 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 2: are thinking about online? Can you talk about that? This 852 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 2: notion that I think some, by the way, and I 853 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 2: don't know what their motives are, but there are some 854 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 2: that claim to be on the conservative side that are 855 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 2: suggesting young people are turning away from President Trump because 856 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,320 Speaker 2: of things they're seeing on social media. Be it because 857 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:24,879 Speaker 2: of foreign affairs or be it because of ice. Can 858 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 2: you speak to that? I mean, you're you're literally in 859 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 2: that space. So is there If there's truth to it, fine, 860 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 2: so be it. But I don't know that I trust, 861 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 2: as I say, the Wall Street Journals reporting on it. 862 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 12: Yeah, so I would say there's a little bit of 863 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 12: truth to it. 864 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 13: Starting at the Trump angle, I feel like, especially gen Z, 865 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 13: their main focus right now is looking into the future 866 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 13: and seeing that they can afford house. 867 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 12: That's it. 868 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 13: And if they can afford a house and the American dream, 869 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 13: and you know, when they're seeing their president in their 870 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 13: opinion because of what's being what's being emitted from the 871 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:03,879 Speaker 13: White House focusing on foreign affairs in the first six 872 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 13: months of his presidency and then focusing on immigration, which 873 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 13: is like something that's amazing. They're not seeing The younger 874 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 13: generation isn't seeing the things that they thought that they 875 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 13: were promised and that was a more affordable economy. Does 876 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 13: that mean that Trump is doing is not a good president. No, 877 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 13: it doesn't mean that. It just means that there is 878 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 13: not enough messaging targeting gen Z right now. 879 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 2: Okay, So if I could interrupt on that point, could 880 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 2: I interrupt on that point and ask President Trump was 881 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 2: credited and his campaign was credited Baron Trump, his son. 882 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 2: His push was aggressive on influencers and non traditional media 883 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,279 Speaker 2: to get to the White House. Is it that they 884 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 2: have backed away from that and not leaned into it? 885 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 2: Because I think if the Trump administration explained themselves better 886 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 2: on some certain fronts, particularly young people, through influencers, maybe 887 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 2: that wouldn't be the case that you just described who 888 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 2: are false. 889 00:46:58,000 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 12: I would say that's true. I would agree with you. 890 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 13: Is that, like you know, they bren did have a 891 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 13: very heavy influence on the gen Z outreach during the 892 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,879 Speaker 13: Trump campaign. I would say that gen Z really paid 893 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 13: attention to that. We saw it all across our colleges. 894 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 13: Gen Z going more right than they ever had before. 895 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 13: But after Trump got into office, all of that momentum 896 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 13: stopped for gen Z. So a lot of people will 897 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 13: blame the Israel focus. A lot of people were bringing 898 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 13: the foreign affairs. I just say that, like the Trump administration, 899 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 13: what they're doing right now appeals mainly to millennials and 900 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 13: maybe like Menos, gen X and the boomer generation, it's 901 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 13: not appealing to gen Z. So you're not seeing a 902 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 13: lot of gen Z's, especially in college campuses and MAGA 903 00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 13: hats or anything like that, because they felt as if 904 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 13: they were kind of used and then casts aside. I 905 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 13: think the obvious answer to this is getting is not 906 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 13: just the White House improving their messaging, but also getting 907 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,359 Speaker 13: the influencers involved. I know the White House is doing 908 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 13: that with the room. I know that we have influencers 909 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 13: for press passes, campaignbe for instance, But I think the 910 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 13: influencers need to be involved so they can speak to 911 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 13: the base that Trump and his administration, not that they 912 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 13: have a problem. 913 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 12: Doing, but that I feel like right now it. 914 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 13: Is not going to be their logical priority because he 915 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 13: has to represent all the other constituents as well. But 916 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 13: if he could split off and utilize the conservative influencers. 917 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,800 Speaker 12: I believe that a lot of those problems will be fixed. 918 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 2: James Owen, Founder President Reawaken USA at Real James Owen 919 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 2: on social media. James, as you're able and willing, I'd 920 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 2: love to have you back because this is something that 921 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: I want to stay close to and pay attention to. 922 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I hear about it through my kids all 923 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 2: the time, but you have real insights into this is 924 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 2: the work you do. So you're welcome back anytime that 925 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 2: you're able to give us some of your insights as 926 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 2: to how we message a little better. Frankly as conservatives, 927 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 2: particularly to younger people. I really appreciate your time. 928 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 6: Boy. 929 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: Is that just a beautiful look a there is? I 930 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 2: tell you something. For years and years my studio was 931 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:15,840 Speaker 2: perched high above the Ben Franklin Bridge in Center City, Philadelphia, 932 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 2: and I had the most beautiful look of the sun 933 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: coming up. If you're watching the Salem News Channel, you're 934 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,879 Speaker 2: seeing it right now, beautiful sunrise this morning. We're looking 935 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 2: across the river from the Camden side towards Center City, 936 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,399 Speaker 2: Philadelphia on the Salem News Channel. And my studio used 937 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,880 Speaker 2: to be right there in what was called Old City, 938 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 2: and I had a view of the Ben Franklin Bridge 939 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 2: to my right and Christ Church the temple the steeple, 940 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,439 Speaker 2: I should say, to my left, and as the sun 941 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 2: would come up and catch those both, there was just 942 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,360 Speaker 2: no prettier picture. I had a picture postcard on Sunday 943 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 2: mornings like this one for years and years and years. 944 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,080 Speaker 2: Now I'm Ensconsdin a bunker safely away from all of that, 945 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 2: But that was my view once upon a time when 946 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,919 Speaker 2: things were normal, fast Eddy. That was a different time. 947 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 2: The country was a different place. 948 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, that was a good time. 949 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 2: It was. Actually that was the first time that a 950 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 2: bunch of rabble surrounded the studio and started chanting for 951 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 2: me to come out. But the idiots forgot that I 952 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 2: do a morning show, and so they showed up in 953 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:20,799 Speaker 2: like the middle of the day chanting my name. There 954 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,400 Speaker 2: was this huge group of protesters that showed up outside 955 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 2: that studio screaming my name, screaming noise horns, the whole thing, chanting, screaming. 956 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 2: They wanted me to come out because they were This 957 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 2: was during the Occupy Wall Street day. I remember those 958 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 2: days when they were blocking the streets and laying around 959 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 2: in the pea party. I called them they were wetting 960 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 2: themselves in tents and raping and catching venereal diseases. 961 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 6: And yes, I remember that throwing. 962 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was just disgusting. There was an encampment for years, 963 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 2: it felt like months anyway around the courthouse and things 964 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 2: like that. And they had blocked the street outside our 965 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 2: studios next door, or we were neighboring the Fox affiliate there, 966 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:07,320 Speaker 2: Fox twenty nine in Philadelphia were our neighbors on the 967 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 2: street level, and they have a studio where you can 968 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 2: look at on the street. And so these leftist activists decided, 969 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,439 Speaker 2: in order to get maximum attention, they would go out 970 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 2: on the Fox twenty nine morning show to do their 971 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 2: little street demonstrations. So that would be in the backdrop 972 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,759 Speaker 2: of the anchors shot pretty you know. Okay, so that 973 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 2: much is smart. I guess they thought, well, we'll get 974 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: live TV. We're going to block the street. So in 975 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:36,760 Speaker 2: doing that, there was an overhead copter shot that morning 976 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 2: that I was monitoring on the show of these protesters 977 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 2: surrounding our building, tying up traffic in the street. And 978 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 2: one particular guy had started trying to just drive to 979 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 2: get to wherever he was going, and the protesters surround 980 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 2: his car and start jumping up and down on it 981 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 2: and the whole thing, And I said, you know, to me, 982 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 2: if that's me, I just floor it. And then we 983 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 2: had a healthy debate about whether that was appropriate to 984 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 2: me to say or not. But I just kept thinking 985 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 2: to myself, if you're driving down the road, just trying 986 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 2: to go about your day, and all of a sudden 987 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 2: a bunch of goons hop on your car and start 988 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 2: jumping up and down on it like a bunch of 989 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 2: rabbit apes ed, what do you do. Do you just 990 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 2: sit there and put it in park or do you 991 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,839 Speaker 2: floor it? Now I understand, Oh, but you might run 992 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:25,799 Speaker 2: over someone, to which I say, well, it's you or 993 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 2: me and my property, and I have the right to 994 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 2: defend myself, so I'm putting it in drive. That's what 995 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,840 Speaker 2: I said. The protesters didn't like that. They thought I 996 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 2: was calling for murder. 997 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 8: I know people that would have driven through. I actually 998 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,839 Speaker 8: one of my closest friends he would absolutely drive through. 999 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 8: But me at this age, at seventeen, I would have 1000 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 8: done the same thing. 1001 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 6: Now. I probably would just stop him, like all right, 1002 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 6: here we go. 1003 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't mean that I'd like floor it and 1004 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 2: try to kill people. Intentionally. But I don't think I'm 1005 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 2: just going to sit there, no, and park and let 1006 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 2: these goons jump up and down on my car. I 1007 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 2: think I advanced the car, don't you. 1008 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:05,760 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah advanced. 1009 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1010 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 6: I'll just let go of a break. I can just 1011 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:08,720 Speaker 6: roll be fine. 1012 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:09,960 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1013 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 2: Anyway, a little walk down memory Lane. So I had 1014 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,919 Speaker 2: a big group of morons gathered outside my building. There 1015 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,600 Speaker 2: come outs to go, we wanted to ride. I was 1016 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 2: long gone. I did the show remotely for another couple 1017 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,720 Speaker 2: of days, and that was all over Memories and that 1018 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 2: was that was coming to the tail end of my 1019 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 2: broadcast career in Center City, Philadelphia, And from that day 1020 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 2: to this I wish I could say I missed it. 1021 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,840 Speaker 2: What you shouldn't miss, though, is Relief Factor, all natural, 1022 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 2: one hundred percent drug free. If you are somebody who 1023 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 2: is battling pain and you're thinking to yourself, well, the 1024 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:42,800 Speaker 2: only way out of this is some kind of radical 1025 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 2: surgery or maybe a shot, or maybe some medicine or something, 1026 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:50,399 Speaker 2: hang on, have you tried this all natural, anti inflammatory yet? Boy, 1027 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 2: they've priced it right. I mean it's nineteen ninety five. 1028 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,240 Speaker 2: That's less than a dollar a day, So you can't 1029 00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:00,879 Speaker 2: find a more inexpensive route to perhaps bring that pain 1030 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:03,439 Speaker 2: down to a more manageable level. And for many, many 1031 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 2: thousands of customers who've let us know over the years 1032 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 2: we've been talking about relief Factor, their pain melted away entirely. 1033 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,839 Speaker 2: That genuinely is the experience of so many people who 1034 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 2: try Relief Factor, a total pain free existence, or even 1035 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 2: if you could minimize it to a point that you 1036 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 2: could live with it without taking pharmaceuticals or doing some 1037 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:23,160 Speaker 2: kind of expensive or radical surgery. Eight hundred the number 1038 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 2: four relief to get yours for less than a buck 1039 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,240 Speaker 2: a day? Eight hundred the number four relief or relief 1040 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 2: factor dot com. Well, I don't know about you, but 1041 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,840 Speaker 2: I thoroughly enjoyed my weekend because it kicked off just 1042 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 2: right with Don Lemon arrested. Did you see the letter 1043 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 2: from the attorney He would while covering the Grammys? Oh no, 1044 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 2: not while covering the Grammys. What is that supposed to 1045 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 2: be like added gravitas anyway? Yeah, Don Lemon? That was 1046 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,919 Speaker 2: the big news heading into the weekend that broke during 1047 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,240 Speaker 2: the show on Friday, that Don Lemon has been arrested. 1048 00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 2: So here to discuss it, among many other things, because 1049 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 2: I know he follows this closely and it's actually very 1050 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,160 Speaker 2: serious subject. I mean, while I'm having a little fun 1051 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 2: with it, the reason he was arrested is a deadly 1052 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,759 Speaker 2: serious subject. And in fact, I would say I told 1053 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 2: some friends over the weekend, I believe that the raid 1054 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 2: on mar A Lagos, it's like that, like it's that 1055 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,400 Speaker 2: big a deal, like it's a nation defining moment that 1056 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,319 Speaker 2: if we tolerate that in a church service, or we 1057 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 2: tolerate a president's home being rated, I think you've lost 1058 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 2: the country. I don't know if Senator Eric Schmidt agrees 1059 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 2: with me or not from the great state of Missouri, 1060 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 2: but joins us this morning, and Senator I appreciate your time. 1061 00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:34,319 Speaker 2: I hope I don't sound too heavy handed about that, 1062 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 2: but that's the way I feel. Good morning, good morning. 1063 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1064 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 14: No, I think what we've seen in Minnesota with the 1065 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 14: radical anarchist so called protesters is pretty dramatic. I think 1066 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 14: that this is part of a well funded network to 1067 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 14: get people out to sow chaos and it's really making 1068 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 14: a situation very dangerous. Of course, we've had the tragic deaths, 1069 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 14: but the politician, I think the most dangerous part of 1070 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 14: all of it is just the language that the governor 1071 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 14: and the mayor using, you know, comparing law enforcement to 1072 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 14: the Gestapo and a secret police force, a Nazi occupation 1073 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 14: being invaded. I mean, this is crazy and it's fueling 1074 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:24,239 Speaker 14: this rage that exists that is so ill placed. I 1075 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 14: think that if you weren't paying attention, maybe you thought 1076 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:28,280 Speaker 14: this started last. 1077 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:29,879 Speaker 10: Weekend, or a month ago, or even a year ago. 1078 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:30,320 Speaker 10: It didn't. 1079 00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:33,799 Speaker 14: It started in January of twenty twenty one, when Joe 1080 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 14: Biden opened up our border and fifteen million people came 1081 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 14: here illegally and unprecedented. 1082 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 10: Nothing was done about it. 1083 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 14: Nothing was done about it, and we would say, hey, 1084 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 14: we don't need new laws, we need a new president. Well, 1085 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 14: we have a new president who's enforcing the laws that 1086 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,280 Speaker 14: have been passed by Republicans and Democrats alike, our immigration laws. 1087 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 14: And the left is losing their minds. And it's not 1088 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 14: about Ice or Trump or DHS. It's really about open borders. 1089 00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 14: They really believe that were citizens of the world and 1090 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 14: everybody can come here and they don't have to leave. 1091 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 10: That's what they really believe. 1092 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 14: And so when you distill it all, Chris, that's what 1093 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,759 Speaker 14: this comes down to why this moment in time is 1094 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 14: very important because in my view, you're either on the 1095 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,320 Speaker 14: side of the rule of law or chaos, and so 1096 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 14: you got to pick a team here. 1097 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 2: And isn't it all kind of part and parcel. I'm 1098 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 2: going to mismash a lot of different stories into one 1099 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 2: because I think it's all the same theme. Whether it's 1100 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 2: what we're looking into in Fulton County with ballots, or 1101 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 2: whether it's the border, whether it's your Scam Act, which 1102 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 2: I want to talk about that's the name of the 1103 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 2: Stop Citizenship Abuse and Misrepresentation, whether it's the Save Act 1104 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 2: that's on deck, whether it's the fraud that we've uncovered 1105 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 2: in the largely Somali community in Minnesota. It's all part 1106 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 2: of the fraud, the scam taking advantage of the American 1107 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 2: taxpayer and the legal American citizen and voter, isn't it. 1108 00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 2: It's all of that. It's just a network of fraud 1109 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 2: and conspiracy. 1110 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 14: Yes, And to your point, the American taxpayers have been 1111 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 14: the ones who've been abused and by an elite on 1112 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 14: the Democrat side that views them as bitter clingers and 1113 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 14: the deplorables and trash as Joe Biden called them, they 1114 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 14: sort of look down on Middle America and are perfectly 1115 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 14: willing to displace them from their jobs, perfectly willing to 1116 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 14: make them pay more in rent because i llegal immigrants 1117 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 14: have flooded their community, perfectly willing to tolerate the fraud 1118 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 14: because these people vote for them, perfectly willing to bring 1119 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 14: in people who are committing acts of violence. I mean, 1120 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 14: you have to remember, tens of thousands of murderers were 1121 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 14: let in, hundreds of thousands of other kinds of criminals 1122 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 14: were let in, and they don't seem to care about 1123 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 14: it because it pads their numbers at the polls. But 1124 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 14: you're right, this is about a much larger issue about 1125 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 14: whether or not a country can decide whether or not 1126 00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 14: to enforce its laws or not, or are you going 1127 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 14: to yield to a mob that doesn't like the election results? 1128 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,640 Speaker 14: Because President Trump was pretty clear about what he ran on. 1129 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 14: I mean, the one thing if you were to ask 1130 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 14: a voter in November of twenty twenty four, what is 1131 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 14: President Trump's. 1132 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 10: You know, basic platform? 1133 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 14: The economy, you know, inflation in the economy, and illegal immigration. 1134 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 14: So it wasn't a side issue. It was front and center, 1135 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 14: and people said, you know what. We don't like what 1136 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 14: we saw over four years, and President Trump came in 1137 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 14: to fix it, and they don't like that. And that's 1138 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,320 Speaker 14: why you're seeing these tantrums on the streets. 1139 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,959 Speaker 2: Now, That's why. And I must say, and I've warned 1140 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 2: about it last week, and you know, I can't assign 1141 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 2: it to any one person, but I think corporately, even 1142 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 2: some traditional conservative outlets. I won't name names, but I'll 1143 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:48,800 Speaker 2: just say it's big business, the business of illegal immigration. 1144 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:51,040 Speaker 2: And I think it would be disingenuous to say there's 1145 00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 2: not an element of the chamber of commerce class that 1146 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 2: doesn't like it too. Have you sensed that? 1147 00:59:57,520 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1148 00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 14: And I would say also the people that I grew 1149 00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 14: up around in Missouri, in a working class neighborhood, they 1150 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 14: got hit with this double whammy, which was the globalists 1151 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 14: wanted their jobs shipped overseas for cheaper labor, and then 1152 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 14: as my friends and neighbors were looking for new jobs, 1153 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 14: those wages were undercut by illegal immigration. So right again, 1154 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 14: who's left holding the bag? The working class American and 1155 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 14: people are tired of that. And that's what people really misread. 1156 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 14: It's what they don't really understand about this movement. What 1157 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 14: is this American First movement all about. That's big part 1158 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 14: of it, because they've been sold out. They've been sold 1159 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 14: out to the highest bidder. The industries that built this 1160 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,720 Speaker 14: great country were sold off for parts. We can't build 1161 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 14: enough stuff right now. 1162 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 11: Now. 1163 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 14: President Trump's doing a hell of a job of reindustrializing 1164 01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 14: nineteen trillion dollars worth of investment in this country in 1165 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,920 Speaker 14: advanced manufacturing, especially in the auto business. 1166 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 10: But that's all good stuff. 1167 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 14: But it's going to take a while to rebuild all 1168 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 14: that because it was decimated and people's lives were left 1169 01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 14: in the wake, and you know, instead of the factories, 1170 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 14: you had fetanol, you know, flooding into those communities. 1171 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 10: So there's a lot of work to do. 1172 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 2: Eric Schmidt is with this Senator of Missouri and the 1173 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 2: two different acts that I really want to highlight one 1174 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 2: that you're working closely on. I know you're working on 1175 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:17,280 Speaker 2: both of them, the Stop Citizenship Abuse and Misrepresentation Act 1176 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 2: as well as the SAVE Act. So that there's the 1177 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 2: SCAM Act and the SAVE Act, not entirely related but 1178 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 2: sort of adjacent. Can you talk about them both and 1179 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 2: where you think they stand. 1180 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 14: Yeah, the SAVE Act, I mean it's pretty simple. You 1181 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 14: have to verify citizenship to vote. You know, here's the thing. 1182 01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 14: You don't have to be a citizen to get a 1183 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,800 Speaker 14: driver's license, and if you have a driver's license, you 1184 01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 14: can vote typically, and we ought to have a process 1185 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 14: to say no, you actually have to be an American 1186 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 14: citizen to vote in our election. So it's pretty simple. 1187 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 14: The Democrats oppose it shockingly. 1188 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,840 Speaker 2: And Senator Thune said, if I could interrupt, Senator, he's 1189 01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 2: Senator Thun said, he is putting id requirement in this thing, 1190 01:01:57,840 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 2: and it is going to come to a voter. Are 1191 01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 2: you confident at will and what's the status? 1192 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 14: If so, I am confident. We'll have a vote on it. 1193 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 14: Where and when I don't know, hopefully relatively soon, but 1194 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 14: I imagine that's coming to a head in the upcoming 1195 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,479 Speaker 14: weeks to have a vote on that. But but again, 1196 01:02:14,520 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 14: I mean, this is part of the central doctrine. You know, 1197 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:21,480 Speaker 14: illegal immigration is effectively the Left's religion at this point, 1198 01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 14: and so I can't imagine they'll support it. 1199 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 10: We'll see, but we should have a vote on that. 1200 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 14: The Scam Act is really in response to I think 1201 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 14: a lot of the fraud that we've seen billions of 1202 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 14: dollars in these Somali strongholds. I think it's the tip 1203 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 14: of the iceberg across the country with all those COVID 1204 01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 14: dollars going out, even last minute before Biden left office, 1205 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 14: when COVID wasn't a thing. The fraud is just immense, 1206 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 14: and so we ought to do something about it. One 1207 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 14: is there ought to be prosecutions. Two, we ought to 1208 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:56,280 Speaker 14: have greater controls on the front. And to receive the money, 1209 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,440 Speaker 14: you ought to verify that you're actually a business and 1210 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 14: people you know you're serving people. We don't do that 1211 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 14: a lot of times in the Blue States, and we 1212 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 14: need reforms on that front. And then if what the 1213 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 14: Scam Act is to say, if you've committed that kind 1214 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 14: of fraud, or if you've committed a violent felony, or 1215 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 14: if you've joined, you know, a member of a cartel, 1216 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 14: you can be denaturalized as a citizen and a ten 1217 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 14: year look back, so you don't get to come here anymore, 1218 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 14: become a citizen and then rip everybody off without any repercussions. 1219 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,040 Speaker 14: If you do it, we're going to denaturalize you and 1220 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 14: we're going to send you back home. I think that's 1221 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 14: a very important deterrent. It would show we're very serious 1222 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:39,400 Speaker 14: about what we've seen in Minnesota before. 1223 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 2: I let you run the events of Fulton County last week, 1224 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 2: the raid on the ballots there where they store those ballots. 1225 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 2: Do you have any insight into that or what you 1226 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 2: think that might be about, or what the FBI is 1227 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 2: looking at there or what they could find. 1228 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:54,080 Speaker 14: Well, I mean, obviously it was in sort of the 1229 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 14: epicenter of the twenty twenty elections. 1230 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,280 Speaker 10: So we'll see, we'll see where it all goes. 1231 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 14: But I think the know my own personal view is 1232 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:04,920 Speaker 14: that the American people deserve answers on a lot of 1233 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 14: questions that were presented that were never resolved because Joe 1234 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:11,240 Speaker 14: Biden was in office and we saw the systematic weaponization 1235 01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:15,880 Speaker 14: of government against anybody who dare raise those questions. You know, 1236 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 14: if you were if you were a lawyer in one 1237 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 14: of the election disputes, they tried to ruin your life. 1238 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 14: And by the way, litigation after elections is kind of normal. 1239 01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 14: But they wanted to silence everybody. And then they ramped 1240 01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:32,120 Speaker 14: up their censorship machine, which I talk about in my 1241 01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:34,480 Speaker 14: book The Last Line of Defense, Right, they ramped that 1242 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,560 Speaker 14: up to a level where any kind of descent on COVID, 1243 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 14: on the election, on masks, on the vaccine, what whatever, 1244 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:45,080 Speaker 14: you were shut down. They wanted to ruin your life, 1245 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:47,160 Speaker 14: and I do think there still needs to be a 1246 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 14: reckoning there. 1247 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they did ruin many lives, which is why 1248 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 2: I come right back to, not that it's about retribution, 1249 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 2: but acco of buildy. Forgive me if I'm not Yeah, 1250 01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 2: forgive me if I'm not shedding a tier for Don 1251 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 2: Lemon's arrest on Friday. Yeah. 1252 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 14: Well, because the press asked me this all the time, 1253 01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:06,880 Speaker 14: Chris is you know, like, what do you think about 1254 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 14: Trump going after his enemies? 1255 01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:10,479 Speaker 10: It's ridiculous. The premise is wrong. 1256 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 14: What we're doing is we're saying that the people who 1257 01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 14: actually weaponized government against its citizens they ought to be 1258 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 14: held accountable. That's a very different thing than what the 1259 01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,320 Speaker 14: left did in their four years. So I think in 1260 01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 14: order to heal here, there has to be some prosecutions. 1261 01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 2: Amen, Senator Eric Schmid, It is always a pleasure to 1262 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 2: catch up with you, my friend.

I got a 1276 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 2: new one coming out today, and I dive deep into 1277 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 2: something over the weekend that I'm still really trying to 1278 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 2: sort out because it's for me. This stuff is kind 1279 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,000 Speaker 2: of like when somebody asks you, hey, where does space end? 1280 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 2: And I'm talking about AI and something called malt Box 1281 01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 2: that came over the weekend. There was this story or 1282 01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 2: malt book rather mult book. It's it's convoluted, and I 1283 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 2: hate even trying to explain it here because I'm not 1284 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,680 Speaker 2: going to do it justice. I tried to kind of 1285 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 2: write it out on social media but or on a substack. 1286 01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:53,439 Speaker 2: But long story short, it's it's AI generated chats and 1287 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 2: it starts to kind of walk through the idea of 1288 01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,480 Speaker 2: what many people fear AI will develop and become, which 1289 01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 2: is sort of its own autonomous community online, and grow 1290 01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 2: into something nefarious. And it well could. I'm not suggesting 1291 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 2: it can't, you know. I think there's a lot of 1292 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 2: positives with it. But like anything else, it's who's driving 1293 01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:20,520 Speaker 2: the bus on the thing, who's doing the programming, who's 1294 01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 2: behind the initial design of it? You know? And I 1295 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 2: know there are many of you like me whose heads 1296 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 2: just spin when you start talking about AI and imagining. 1297 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:31,280 Speaker 2: I don't spend a lot of time doing it. I 1298 01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 2: have friends that are just consumed with it, and this 1299 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 2: is one of those things for me. I can't I 1300 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:39,840 Speaker 2: can't know. It's trying to put toothpaste back in a tube. 1301 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 2: It's here. Whatever it is, for the good or the bad, 1302 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 2: it's coming. I'd love it that we could impact it, 1303 01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:47,920 Speaker 2: and that it could all be used for good. Do 1304 01:07:47,960 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 2: I think it'll be abused and be used for bad? 1305 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 2: Of course? Do I think it's the end of humanity 1306 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:54,480 Speaker 2: as we know it? I can't possibly know that my 1307 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 2: faith and trust is in Jesus Christ. I don't spend 1308 01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 2: a lot of time worrying about what will end society 1309 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,360 Speaker 2: or the world as we know it. That's just not 1310 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,120 Speaker 2: a place where I want to spend my energies. So 1311 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 2: anyway I write about it today, I hope you'll check 1312 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 2: it out. At the Rumph Society, Deputy Attorney General Todd 1313 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:16,200 Speaker 2: Blanche talking about the Don Lemon event give me number 1314 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 2: thirty five over the weekend with little George step No 1315 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 2: No on ABC. 1316 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 15: The Appellate Court and a judge on the Appellate Court 1317 01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:26,679 Speaker 15: who said, just a few days later there was clearly 1318 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 15: probable cause and it wasn't even a close question. So 1319 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 15: and by the way, a grand jury, which is what 1320 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,960 Speaker 15: our system has set up to determine whether problem cause exists, 1321 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 15: concluded that there was probable cause. 1322 01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:38,519 Speaker 7: That indictment is now public. 1323 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 15: Everybody in this country can pull it up and read 1324 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:43,600 Speaker 15: for themselves and see what the grand jury found that 1325 01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 15: mister Lemon did. I am not going to comment on 1326 01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,759 Speaker 15: the charges specifically, because it's not appropriate. But it's interesting 1327 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:52,360 Speaker 15: that we talk about the first minum right. You have 1328 01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 15: a right of freedom of religion, which is just as 1329 01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:55,960 Speaker 15: important as any. 1330 01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:56,680 Speaker 10: Other right that we have. 1331 01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 15: And George, I don't know if you've watched the videos 1332 01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:02,960 Speaker 15: or read the indictment about what it's alleged that mister 1333 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 15: Lemon did. But if anybody in this country thinks that 1334 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 15: that is quote independent journalism, I would like to have 1335 01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 15: a conversation with you. 1336 01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 1: Now. 1337 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:13,080 Speaker 15: He's obviously as a very good lawyer, he can raise 1338 01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 15: defenses in court to the extent he wants to. But 1339 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:19,680 Speaker 15: nobody in this country should feel comfortable storming into a 1340 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 15: church while it's ongoing and disrupting that church service and 1341 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 15: thinking that we're just going to stand by and let 1342 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 15: that happen because there is okay. 1343 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 2: And as for Don Lemon, he's very proud of it. 1344 01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:32,439 Speaker 2: He continues to be very cocky and proud of it. 1345 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 2: Number thirty four. I have so many thoughts and what 1346 01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:40,639 Speaker 2: this did was really open my eyes to a lot. 1347 01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:48,320 Speaker 10: So if you think that I was outspoken before this, just. 1348 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 2: Wait, okay, just wait.

They just genuinely 1394 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 2: care about entertaining and making you laugh. I don't know 1395 01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 2: Catherine O'Hara's politics. I'm you know, she's Canadian. I'm certain 1396 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:11,479 Speaker 2: she probably was not if I were to bet, she 1397 01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:14,280 Speaker 2: probably was not a conservative or a President Trump fan. 1398 01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 2: But I didn't know, and I didn't care.

I was just asking, and I'm very much 1471 01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:50,920 Speaker 16: looking forward to the moment when that stops. Well, enjoy 1472 01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:54,680 Speaker 16: your stay, you know. 1473 01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:57,600 Speaker 2: And I've got more. We'll play Christian Toto on the 1474 01:15:57,600 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 2: way to talk about it. But the fact is, some 1475 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 2: people make you laugh as a performer, and it's a 1476 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:05,800 Speaker 2: very rare few that kind of make you feel understood. 1477 01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:08,080 Speaker 2: And then there are people like Catherine O'Hara, who is 1478 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:12,719 Speaker 2: an artist who just didn't just entertain, but really revealed 1479 01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:16,680 Speaker 2: something quietly true about people every time she appeared on 1480 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 2: the screen. She wasn't just a female comedic genius. She 1481 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,200 Speaker 2: was a comedic genius. Drop the female full stop. She 1482 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 2: was just a comedic genius, the kind whose presence made 1483 01:16:28,479 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 2: other comedians sit up a little straighter. You listen to 1484 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 2: people talk about her in entertainment, and you hear the 1485 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 2: respect they have for because they knew they were in 1486 01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:41,040 Speaker 2: the room with someone operating at an entirely different level. Again, 1487 01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:43,479 Speaker 2: she was a kid. She was eighteen when she began 1488 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:49,040 Speaker 2: at the Second City and SCTV objectively hilarious and had 1489 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 2: this uncanny instinct for character and character development. Her collaborations 1490 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 2: with Christopher Guests and Eugene Levy, if you haven't seen 1491 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:02,439 Speaker 2: the Mockumen as they're called best in show waiting for 1492 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:07,960 Speaker 2: Guffman a Mighty Wind, I found them truly inspired and 1493 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:13,400 Speaker 2: I highly recommend them if you enjoy comedies. It's ensemble comedy, 1494 01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 2: and when you're working in an ensemble, it demands humility 1495 01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:21,040 Speaker 2: and it demands generosity. There is no star in an ensemble, 1496 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,919 Speaker 2: and she possessed both of those things very clearly, humility 1497 01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 2: and generosity, elevating everybody around her, but still managed to 1498 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:35,519 Speaker 2: steal scenes, but never forcefully, just naturally. And then the 1499 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:42,040 Speaker 2: cultural fixtures that she became the frantic, fiercely loving MOhm 1500 01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:47,519 Speaker 2: and Home alone, that magnificent eruption of eccentricity that I 1501 01:17:47,600 --> 01:17:51,120 Speaker 2: just played for you. There Moiro Rose in Shatt's Creek. 1502 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:58,600 Speaker 2: That character incidentally moiro Rose. It was so layered and strange, 1503 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:02,679 Speaker 2: and it was something that only Catherine O'Hara could create, 1504 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:06,640 Speaker 2: and it's really something nobody else could or would even attempt. 1505 01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 2: She explained, I listened to a podcast of her explanation 1506 01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 2: of this character, and if you've seen it, you know 1507 01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:14,880 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. If you haven't seen it, it's 1508 01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:21,639 Speaker 2: really masterful. She has this really ridiculous vocabulary or nate 1509 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 2: speech patterns at a really high level. She will use 1510 01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,559 Speaker 2: these very very big words, and she will use these 1511 01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:32,720 Speaker 2: kind of muddled fake accents, a la Madonna, who used 1512 01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:34,760 Speaker 2: to use the you know, the British accent from time 1513 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:38,640 Speaker 2: to time. And she explained that a podcast where that 1514 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 2: came from. She drew from and this is what makes 1515 01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:44,280 Speaker 2: her so thoughtful about the work she did, and I 1516 01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:47,719 Speaker 2: just thought this is genius. She said. She drew from 1517 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:52,480 Speaker 2: women in social circles who felt overshadowed by their powerful husbands, 1518 01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 2: and so they would adopt these affects, this theatrical language 1519 01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:01,840 Speaker 2: to reclaim their own visible and step outside of their 1520 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 2: husband's shadow. This was how she explained the character she developed, 1521 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 2: not mocking. It was sort of empathetic in a way, 1522 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:13,040 Speaker 2: and she turned it into a character. She was a 1523 01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:17,640 Speaker 2: student of human nature, and I just think that is 1524 01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:21,760 Speaker 2: endlessly fascinating to me. And her colleagues clearly didn't just 1525 01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 2: admire her, They absolutely loved her. Mccaullay Culkin, you know 1526 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:28,320 Speaker 2: Kevin from the Home Alone movies, He still to this 1527 01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 2: day calls her mom. His mother. Couldn't make it to 1528 01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:35,400 Speaker 2: his Hollywood Walk of Fame. He called her to be 1529 01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:38,439 Speaker 2: a part of the day. Eugene Levy said she was 1530 01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:42,759 Speaker 2: honest and generous and the quiet truth she brought to comedy. 1531 01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:45,400 Speaker 2: He paid tribute to Martin Short was on stage with 1532 01:19:45,439 --> 01:19:48,479 Speaker 2: Steve Martin over the weekend. A friend of hers again 1533 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:53,040 Speaker 2: since age eighteen, he said she is the greatest, most brilliant, kindest, 1534 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:57,439 Speaker 2: sweetest angel that he had ever worked with. Just hours 1535 01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 2: after her passing, her gift was just timing or improvisation 1536 01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:05,439 Speaker 2: or mimicry, although she was gifted at all of those. 1537 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 2: Her greatest gift was that she was so kind and 1538 01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:16,439 Speaker 2: she was so observant. She studied people the way a 1539 01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:22,680 Speaker 2: great musician can hear rhythm. She never mocked, it was 1540 01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:26,439 Speaker 2: never mean, it was always sort of. She honored people 1541 01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:31,759 Speaker 2: in the way she portrayed quirkiness. That's why her characters 1542 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:35,840 Speaker 2: could be ridiculous but still feel so human. There was 1543 01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:38,400 Speaker 2: I was trying to explain it to a friend of 1544 01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 2: mine in these mockumentaries. I said that she waiting for Guffman. 1545 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:47,120 Speaker 2: She's a ridiculous human being, but very very proud of herself. 1546 01:20:47,240 --> 01:20:50,839 Speaker 2: And you feel about the person even though you're laughing, 1547 01:20:50,880 --> 01:20:55,479 Speaker 2: and you see how absurd the person is. She makes 1548 01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:59,519 Speaker 2: you feel an empathy like she doesn't know and the 1549 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 2: character doesn't know how absurd. They are hard to explain 1550 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:09,240 Speaker 2: but easy to enjoy. At a time when entirely too 1551 01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:14,360 Speaker 2: much comedy mistakes cruelty for courage, and sneering passes for 1552 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 2: satire and meanness. Masquerades is unfiltered or brave. Catherine O'Hara 1553 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:23,599 Speaker 2: was the kind of performer that proved the opposite, that 1554 01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:28,840 Speaker 2: you can be devastatingly funny without being destructive. She didn't 1555 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:32,080 Speaker 2: need to shock to get laughs. She had actual wit, 1556 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 2: actual warmth, actual craft. That's the difference, of course, between 1557 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 2: noise and art. Between a moment and a legacy. It's 1558 01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:44,639 Speaker 2: a career without regrets. That's what she had. It's about 1559 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:47,720 Speaker 2: as close as anyone will ever see. She left nothing unfinished, 1560 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:51,240 Speaker 2: nothing half hearted. She gave her whole self to the 1561 01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:55,559 Speaker 2: craft she respected, and it showed. Boy will miss her, 1562 01:21:56,640 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 2: I know I will ornamentally is punk Satani, Phil. They 1563 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:12,120 Speaker 2: dragged him out of the stump or whatever it is. 1564 01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:13,880 Speaker 2: They keep him in there in Punk Satani, and he 1565 01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:16,240 Speaker 2: saw his shadow this morning. Six more weeks of winter. 1566 01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, I got you, babe, Sonny, and cheer 1567 01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:22,840 Speaker 2: and homage to one of the great films, Groundhog Day. 1568 01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:26,599 Speaker 2: Probably gonna go home and watch that. Phil Murray, Harold Remus, 1569 01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:34,679 Speaker 2: the director, fantastic in fact, little bridge between both groundhog 1570 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:39,240 Speaker 2: Day the film and Excreman's Creek or Shats Creek. Speaking 1571 01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:44,719 Speaker 2: of Catherine O'Hara, Chris Elliot, the actor. Chris Elliot played 1572 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,320 Speaker 2: the cameraman in Groundhog Day and he played the mayor 1573 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:50,880 Speaker 2: in Shatz Creek. Chris Elliot is not an actor that 1574 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 2: gets a lot of credit, but he's also hilarious. He 1575 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:56,920 Speaker 2: came from Letterman way back in the day. Mike Johnson 1576 01:22:57,240 --> 01:22:59,680 Speaker 2: was on NBC over the weekend, Meet the Press with 1577 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:05,679 Speaker 2: Chris Ston Welker talking about this Fulton County election office 1578 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:08,639 Speaker 2: raid by the FBI, number thirty six. Take a listen. 1579 01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:13,120 Speaker 18: What's healthy for our country and our democracy is for 1580 01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,720 Speaker 18: everyone to be laser focused on election integrity. 1581 01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:18,000 Speaker 4: If you don't, that's not election integrity. 1582 01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:18,439 Speaker 6: Misters. 1583 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:22,600 Speaker 16: This was asked and answered and litigated and re litigated. 1584 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:23,800 Speaker 12: The page has been turned. 1585 01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:27,520 Speaker 16: He's still talking about an election that he lost, allegations 1586 01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:28,799 Speaker 16: which have been deemed claimed. 1587 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 18: The President is keeping the focus on election integrity. It 1588 01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 18: must be in the forefront of everyone's minds because if 1589 01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 18: you don't have a free and fair election, you cannot 1590 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:38,280 Speaker 18: maintain a constitution or republic. 1591 01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 12: He's bothered by what happened in. 1592 01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:41,760 Speaker 18: Twenty twenty, and we all know there was a lot 1593 01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:43,800 Speaker 18: of irregularity and problem in that, and we're not going 1594 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:45,640 Speaker 18: to relitigate it. That's not the point. What we have 1595 01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 18: to do is go forward and ensure we don't have 1596 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,280 Speaker 18: these problems in the future. That's why the House has 1597 01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:53,519 Speaker 18: passed the save AC twice already. We have further election 1598 01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:56,720 Speaker 18: integrity measures that we're working on now, and everybody in 1599 01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,360 Speaker 18: both parties should applaud that, they should support it. 1600 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,160 Speaker 2: I do applaud it. I mean, the fact of the 1601 01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 2: matter is Georgia was not won by Joe Biden. I 1602 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,640 Speaker 2: think every Georgian listening to me right now should care 1603 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 2: about that. Joe Biden did not win Georgia. Then he didn't. 1604 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:16,600 Speaker 2: That doesn't matter. Well, you're now you're moving the goalpost 1605 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 2: whether it made a difference in the outcome of the 1606 01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:25,120 Speaker 2: ultimate victory for Joe Biden or not. He didn't legitimately 1607 01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:27,599 Speaker 2: win Georgia, and you should care about that if you're 1608 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 2: an American citizen. 1609 01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 6: I do. 1610 01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson is correct, Pam BONDI, addressing the arrest of 1611 01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:36,160 Speaker 2: Don Lemon, thought you'd like to hear this number thirty nine. 1612 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:41,240 Speaker 1: As a minister starts preaching. Pastor Parnell is wonderful, the 1613 01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: nicest man. 1614 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:44,880 Speaker 7: He was shocked. They all come in. 1615 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:48,920 Speaker 1: They were caravanning there, cars bumper to bumper, all of them, 1616 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:53,080 Speaker 1: the nine we indicted, all caravanning together. They storm in 1617 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:58,320 Speaker 1: that church from all directions, start screaming chance in unison, 1618 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 1: horrible chance. One man screams, this ain't the house of God, 1619 01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:05,840 Speaker 1: this is the house of the devil. A little girl 1620 01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:09,400 Speaker 1: later recanted recounted that she thought her mom and dad 1621 01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:11,920 Speaker 1: were going to be killed. Parents were blocked from getting 1622 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 1: upstairs to get their children out of Sunday school. Some 1623 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:18,120 Speaker 1: of the lucky women ran out the side door, falling 1624 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:20,559 Speaker 1: on the ice, legs up in the air. One woman 1625 01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 1: hurt her arm so badly she had to go to 1626 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:23,720 Speaker 1: the hospital. 1627 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:27,360 Speaker 2: Parishioners were blocked from and she goes on to make 1628 01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:29,240 Speaker 2: the case. You know, we mean it when we say 1629 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 2: God bless America.

Again, 1638 01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:09,240 Speaker 2: I think they tried to get away from that for 1639 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:12,000 Speaker 2: a while during award season so that maybe normal people 1640 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:14,519 Speaker 2: would tune in. I think those days are long since over, 1641 01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 2: but they decided to go hard left again and embraced. 1642 01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:19,439 Speaker 2: I gave Don Lemon a standing ovation at one of 1643 01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 2: their little cocktail parties before the Grammys last night or 1644 01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,840 Speaker 2: some such Anyway, we'll talk with Christian Toto about it 1645 01:26:24,840 --> 01:26:26,719 Speaker 2: in just a minute.

I don't 1693 01:28:57,520 --> 01:29:00,920 Speaker 4: wish ill on Dolly Parton. We missed Eddie White. But 1694 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:05,360 Speaker 4: there are very few stars today that we love universally, 1695 01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:09,040 Speaker 4: who have been famous for decades, have been talented for decades, 1696 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:13,080 Speaker 4: who've been just dropping banger after banger for decades. It's 1697 01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:16,680 Speaker 4: Captain Rohara, you know, Demon Wilson just passed away. He 1698 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 4: was from Sanford and Son. He was just a great 1699 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 4: straight man and just a wonderful show. This one show, 1700 01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 4: one performance. 1701 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:23,080 Speaker 2: It was terrific. 1702 01:29:23,160 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 4: It was iconic. 1703 01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:24,599 Speaker 7: I get it. 1704 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:27,040 Speaker 4: But she just did it again and again and again 1705 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,639 Speaker 4: and again, and then of course Shit's Creek came out 1706 01:29:29,680 --> 01:29:32,200 Speaker 4: a few years back, and then choosing the studio. I mean, 1707 01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:37,040 Speaker 4: just the consistency of greatness alone, it's kind of staggering. 1708 01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:40,320 Speaker 2: It is. Here's a little if you don't mind, I'll 1709 01:29:40,360 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 2: do one more, and then I want to talk some more. 1710 01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 2: Give me number twenty nine, here. This is her as 1711 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 2: Moiro Rose in this brilliant, brilliant role that I probably 1712 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,679 Speaker 2: one of my favorites, in one of her last actually 1713 01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 2: that it has made her iconic to a whole generation 1714 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 2: of people that didn't know her before. This very wealthy 1715 01:29:57,640 --> 01:30:02,439 Speaker 2: former soap opera actress named Moiro Rose in Shat's Creek, 1716 01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:04,640 Speaker 2: as it's known on the You gotta go watch it 1717 01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:06,800 Speaker 2: if you haven't seen this. It's tremendous. But anyway, here's 1718 01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:09,640 Speaker 2: Moira doing a local commercial. She's been hired to do 1719 01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:12,880 Speaker 2: a local commercial for a winery in this dumpy little 1720 01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:14,719 Speaker 2: town that they've had to move to because they're broke. 1721 01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 16: What in the lee of a picturesque ridge lies a small, 1722 01:30:21,760 --> 01:30:28,839 Speaker 16: unpretentious winery, one that peppers its fruit like its own babies. Hi, 1723 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:32,519 Speaker 16: I'm Moira Rose, And if you love fruit wine as 1724 01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:36,280 Speaker 16: much as I do, then you'll appreciate the craftsmanship and 1725 01:30:36,400 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 16: quality of a local vintner who brings the musk melon 1726 01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 16: goodness to his oak Chardonnay and the dazzling peach kral 1727 01:30:46,640 --> 01:30:51,839 Speaker 16: batpoole to his wristling real Oha. Come taste the difference 1728 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:56,320 Speaker 16: good fruit can make in your wine. You'll remember the experience, 1729 01:30:56,800 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 16: and you'll remember the name Herbervlinger, Burt Hernkive irv Herm 1730 01:31:04,200 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 16: blinger Bing Live Hunger Liveling Bert Her. 1731 01:31:09,360 --> 01:31:13,000 Speaker 2: Curtain kind of an homage to the old Lucio ball 1732 01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:15,519 Speaker 2: where she's doing the Vita Meat of Vegamin that that 1733 01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:18,559 Speaker 2: episode features her getting liquored up on the fruit wine 1734 01:31:18,680 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 2: and she keeps doing take after take and it falls apart. 1735 01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:24,240 Speaker 2: Just brilliant Christian. I could talk about her all day 1736 01:31:24,280 --> 01:31:26,680 Speaker 2: home alone. Of course, you could just go on and 1737 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:27,120 Speaker 2: on and on. 1738 01:31:28,720 --> 01:31:32,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, an incredible career and was still going strong when 1739 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:34,280 Speaker 4: she was when she was when. 1740 01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:34,680 Speaker 7: She left us. 1741 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 4: So I don't think people understand how hard it is 1742 01:31:38,320 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 4: to stay hip and busy in show business. It is 1743 01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:45,600 Speaker 4: a brutal industry, especially for a woman at the you 1744 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,599 Speaker 4: know the beauty standards. You get older and the studios 1745 01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:51,800 Speaker 4: want to hire younger, prettier. It just to have her 1746 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:55,519 Speaker 4: longevity is just a testament to the skill. And it 1747 01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:57,559 Speaker 4: sounds like she was a wonderful person off screen. You 1748 01:31:57,560 --> 01:32:00,280 Speaker 4: don't hear anything bad about her, but gosh, well miss 1749 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:05,240 Speaker 4: her and just a wonderful talent. I'm circling back to 1750 01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:08,080 Speaker 4: my initial point, and we could talk about the Grammys 1751 01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:10,799 Speaker 4: and other things going on in Hollywood. It's so divisive, 1752 01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:12,080 Speaker 4: it's so nasty, it's. 1753 01:32:11,960 --> 01:32:13,560 Speaker 12: So cold, it's so cruel. 1754 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 4: She was none of those things. She was sweet and 1755 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:20,920 Speaker 4: warm and just bursting with ability and just made a smile. 1756 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:24,840 Speaker 4: We're watching clips from five years ago, twenty years ago. 1757 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:28,680 Speaker 4: We're laughing. We can't stop laughing at her. Still, that's 1758 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 4: the gift she's given us. We'll keep on laughing. 1759 01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:34,120 Speaker 2: I often think, I said earlier, I think that we 1760 01:32:34,120 --> 01:32:36,600 Speaker 2: were surprised by her illness, which apparently was brief. We 1761 01:32:36,600 --> 01:32:38,040 Speaker 2: still don't really know what it was. I heard she 1762 01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 2: had some sort of condition, in a rare condition where 1763 01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:42,880 Speaker 2: she was born with her heart and other major organs 1764 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:45,759 Speaker 2: on the other side of her body, which isn't necessarily deadly. 1765 01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 2: It's very very rare, but whatever she was battling, much 1766 01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 2: like Norm MacDonald. The thing I noted in common about 1767 01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:54,519 Speaker 2: the two of them devastating, stunned, and they kept very 1768 01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:59,240 Speaker 2: private about it. I think because truly people that love comedy, 1769 01:32:59,320 --> 01:33:01,640 Speaker 2: they don't want their audiences to think of them as 1770 01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:04,320 Speaker 2: sick people, or remember them as sick and ailing. I 1771 01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 2: think that matters to a lot of people whose livelihoods 1772 01:33:07,320 --> 01:33:09,880 Speaker 2: are devoted to the craft of comedy. 1773 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,519 Speaker 4: That's an extremely good point. And I, you know, I 1774 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 4: don't know for sure in each case, but it certainly 1775 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:18,080 Speaker 4: sounds like both performers they were so dedicated to making 1776 01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:20,959 Speaker 4: us laugh and smile that was maybe part of their calculus. 1777 01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:23,479 Speaker 4: It's a personal decision. I just wish it didn't happen 1778 01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:23,800 Speaker 4: this way. 1779 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:27,400 Speaker 2: I know it. I And by the way, the viral 1780 01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:29,200 Speaker 2: video that's been going around to somebody that caught up 1781 01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:31,240 Speaker 2: with her at an airport and said, you know, of 1782 01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:34,000 Speaker 2: all the roles you've done, what's your favorite, And she said, well, 1783 01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:36,760 Speaker 2: mother of my children, without missing a beat, just in 1784 01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:39,600 Speaker 2: a candid moment. So I loved your family. Let me 1785 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:42,200 Speaker 2: ask you about the Grammys, this Don Lemon stuff. Are 1786 01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:44,360 Speaker 2: they falling right back into it? Christian? For a while, 1787 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:47,160 Speaker 2: I thought the Awards shows were trying to restrain themselves 1788 01:33:47,240 --> 01:33:49,760 Speaker 2: in the hopes that normal America would start watching them again. 1789 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 2: But they they dropped all pretense of that this weekend. 1790 01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:58,400 Speaker 4: Completely agree that's exactly what's happening. They went very political, 1791 01:33:58,720 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 4: very wokeress So the lectures were NonStop. Then the last 1792 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:05,000 Speaker 4: couple of years they've been really putting the brakes on it, 1793 01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 4: gently but firmly. Where it wasn't happening. You'd see a 1794 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:12,080 Speaker 4: joker to a quipper, to a comment or two. Often 1795 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 4: they would push it to the red carpet where the 1796 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:17,320 Speaker 4: regular folks really weren't watching aggressively like they were the 1797 01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:19,880 Speaker 4: main event. I think that's gone now, and I think 1798 01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:21,799 Speaker 4: the OSCARS is going to be. It's just an absolute 1799 01:34:21,840 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 4: political jamboree in the very worst sense of it. What's 1800 01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:28,599 Speaker 4: maddening to me is so much about it that drives 1801 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:29,080 Speaker 4: me crazy. 1802 01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:30,080 Speaker 6: Uh One. 1803 01:34:30,360 --> 01:34:33,880 Speaker 4: The lack of information, the misinformation, the fact that they're 1804 01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:36,719 Speaker 4: you know, calling these people's executioners and killers and saying 1805 01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:40,920 Speaker 4: all these horrible things, ignoring what ICE does for the country, 1806 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:45,360 Speaker 4: ignores the drop in crime, the drop in overdose depths. 1807 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 4: There's so much going on here that they're completely missing. 1808 01:34:48,080 --> 01:34:50,560 Speaker 4: But listen, if you watch the legacy media, you'd be 1809 01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:54,559 Speaker 4: missing it too. But it's just incomprehensible how far gone 1810 01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:55,839 Speaker 4: they are on this Ice issue. 1811 01:34:56,960 --> 01:34:59,880 Speaker 2: Milania eight million dollars over the WEA. 1812 01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:05,439 Speaker 4: Your reaction, well, you know, no one saw it coming 1813 01:35:05,479 --> 01:35:07,519 Speaker 4: because they don't know half the country that they like 1814 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:10,200 Speaker 4: to either antagonize or ignore. And that's the media. 1815 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:11,080 Speaker 2: Listen. 1816 01:35:11,200 --> 01:35:12,920 Speaker 4: Documentaries don't make a lot of money. 1817 01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:14,559 Speaker 10: It's just it's just fact. 1818 01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:17,040 Speaker 4: If you make a documentary and you've made a million dollars, 1819 01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:20,960 Speaker 4: you crack open this champaign. That is an exquisite achievement. 1820 01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:24,280 Speaker 4: But this is someone that we're very, very curious about 1821 01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:27,360 Speaker 4: that we haven't seen a lot of who's a mostly 1822 01:35:27,400 --> 01:35:30,800 Speaker 4: private life, and there's this built up demand to see 1823 01:35:30,800 --> 01:35:32,720 Speaker 4: who Malania Trump is and get to see her on 1824 01:35:32,720 --> 01:35:35,000 Speaker 4: the big screen. And I almost wonder if there's a 1825 01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:38,160 Speaker 4: sound of freedom effect going on where the media has 1826 01:35:38,200 --> 01:35:42,479 Speaker 4: been so cruel, so punishing toward this title. There's sort 1827 01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,679 Speaker 4: of a bleep this, I need to see this movie. 1828 01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:46,679 Speaker 4: I wonder if that's a little part of it as well. 1829 01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:50,080 Speaker 2: My wife saw it and said that she was reminded 1830 01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 2: she's forgotten after a year of just the bombardment of negativity. 1831 01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 2: She forgotten how good it felt after Donald Trump won 1832 01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:02,440 Speaker 2: for whom she voted, and the feeling of watching that inauguration. 1833 01:36:02,800 --> 01:36:04,960 Speaker 2: I think that's a large part of this. Is a 1834 01:36:05,000 --> 01:36:08,479 Speaker 2: lot of us who did support and celebrate the first family. 1835 01:36:09,439 --> 01:36:12,799 Speaker 2: You're so clubbed over the head that you you lose 1836 01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:17,360 Speaker 2: perspective sometimes of what we were prior to this administration 1837 01:36:17,400 --> 01:36:18,040 Speaker 2: and where we are. 1838 01:36:19,720 --> 01:36:23,759 Speaker 4: And also she's a lovely person. She is a classic 1839 01:36:23,840 --> 01:36:24,479 Speaker 4: first lady. 1840 01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:24,960 Speaker 16: You know. 1841 01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:27,519 Speaker 4: I didn't agree with anything that Michelle Obama ever said, 1842 01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 4: or still feel that way, but she was a fairly 1843 01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:33,360 Speaker 4: elegant first lady. She wasn't demeaning the country. She just 1844 01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:35,280 Speaker 4: went about her business and she did a fine job. 1845 01:36:35,400 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 4: She doesn't deserve the hate, nor does Malania Trump. 1846 01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:41,200 Speaker 2: Hollywood in Toto catch Christian Toto, thank you for waking 1847 01:36:41,280 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 2: up early, my friend seeing a minute. So right after 1848 01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:49,360 Speaker 2: they have this big premiere of Milania at the I 1849 01:36:49,400 --> 01:36:52,760 Speaker 2: guess they're calling at the Trump Kennedy Center. They had, 1850 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:55,880 Speaker 2: they had the big debut I think on Friday, Friday 1851 01:36:55,920 --> 01:37:00,519 Speaker 2: night or Thursday night, Trump shuts it down ed. Did 1852 01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:03,719 Speaker 2: you hear this? I just love this. This even makes 1853 01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:06,759 Speaker 2: them more mad. Trump's been calling the place a rundown 1854 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:09,840 Speaker 2: dump for a while. Christine and I were just there 1855 01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:11,960 Speaker 2: in October to see the sound of music, and it's 1856 01:37:12,240 --> 01:37:15,679 Speaker 2: it's a lovely building, but it's it's old. I don't 1857 01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:17,559 Speaker 2: know when it was built, maybe in the seventies. It 1858 01:37:17,560 --> 01:37:20,200 Speaker 2: looks it. I mean, it's it's just sort of a 1859 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 2: retro looking building from another time. And apparently the infrastructure 1860 01:37:24,320 --> 01:37:26,040 Speaker 2: of it, the parts that you can't necessarily see, are 1861 01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 2: pretty run down. It's been running in the red as 1862 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:31,840 Speaker 2: an organization. The board is running into the ground financially. 1863 01:37:32,120 --> 01:37:34,519 Speaker 2: So Trump fired them all, made him safe self. The 1864 01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:37,280 Speaker 2: chair of the Kennedy Center then called it the Trump 1865 01:37:37,400 --> 01:37:40,599 Speaker 2: Kennedy Center, and he and Rick Grinnell just announced President 1866 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,320 Speaker 2: Trump announcing yesterday he's shutting the whole thing down for 1867 01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:47,040 Speaker 2: the next two years to gut it and renovate it. Thoughts, 1868 01:37:47,360 --> 01:37:48,479 Speaker 2: that's very exciting. 1869 01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:52,000 Speaker 8: I want to know if it will be renovated using 1870 01:37:52,040 --> 01:37:54,559 Speaker 8: the twenty five million dollars that was in the Cares 1871 01:37:54,680 --> 01:37:57,360 Speaker 8: Act for the Kennedy Center back do you remember the 1872 01:37:57,439 --> 01:38:00,160 Speaker 8: very first coronavirus aid package. 1873 01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 2: That's right, That's that's right. 1874 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,160 Speaker 8: So if they're renovating it using that cash that's already 1875 01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:08,759 Speaker 8: been allotted from our tax dollars back in twenty twenty, 1876 01:38:08,800 --> 01:38:09,920 Speaker 8: I'm in go ahead. 1877 01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:12,600 Speaker 2: Then I know that a lot of private dollars have 1878 01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:15,720 Speaker 2: been that's There were some leftists over the weekend that 1879 01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:19,040 Speaker 2: I engaged with on social media much to my chagrin, 1880 01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:21,400 Speaker 2: and they said, well, I'm not going to go out. 1881 01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:23,920 Speaker 2: It was a bycott.

That's what I mean. This 1905 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:49,840 Speaker 2: is all they've got to channel this into something and 1906 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:53,200 Speaker 2: it most of them, if you actually ask them what 1907 01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:57,120 Speaker 2: they're doing, they can't tell you why. They really don't know. 1908 01:39:58,439 --> 01:40:02,200 Speaker 2: They just say, you know, the same old rote, stupid 1909 01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:06,439 Speaker 2: cliches about Gestapo and Nazis. They don't even know what 1910 01:40:06,439 --> 01:40:10,840 Speaker 2: they're saying, protesting a shopping or a restaurant. And by 1911 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:12,759 Speaker 2: the way, how about the number of businesses and small 1912 01:40:12,760 --> 01:40:17,200 Speaker 2: businesses that are being impacted by this? What did they do? Then? 1913 01:40:17,240 --> 01:40:19,120 Speaker 2: I saw some of them trying to split the baby 1914 01:40:19,160 --> 01:40:22,880 Speaker 2: and say, well, small businesses keep going out and shopping 1915 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:26,760 Speaker 2: and supporting them, just not a big ones. Yeah, as 1916 01:40:26,840 --> 01:40:30,360 Speaker 2: if most of corporate America is pro Trump, I think 1917 01:40:30,520 --> 01:40:33,400 Speaker 2: there's just morons like you're not even thoughtful about this. 1918 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:38,479 Speaker 2: You're just children throwing tantrums. And I maintain that when 1919 01:40:38,479 --> 01:40:40,960 Speaker 2: it's all said and done, it's going to backfire. I 1920 01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:44,360 Speaker 2: maintained that Don Lemon storming into a church and then 1921 01:40:44,400 --> 01:40:46,760 Speaker 2: getting arrogant and saying, yeah, come after me, come and 1922 01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:50,320 Speaker 2: get me. There's more where that came from. And celebrity 1923 01:40:50,320 --> 01:40:55,799 Speaker 2: culture applauding him, and celebrity culture and the left tearing 1924 01:40:55,880 --> 01:41:00,559 Speaker 2: down and storming into federal law enforcement facility. These I 1925 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 2: maintain that is all going to end up biting them 1926 01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:06,439 Speaker 2: in the butt when it's all said and done. I 1927 01:41:06,479 --> 01:41:08,800 Speaker 2: think the American Left is playing with fire here. I 1928 01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:10,679 Speaker 2: think they're going to push too hard, as they always 1929 01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:13,200 Speaker 2: do with their little tantrums, and it's going to have 1930 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:15,680 Speaker 2: a whipsaw effect. In fact, I think I've already seen 1931 01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:17,960 Speaker 2: some polling today which I'll have tomorrow that suggests I'm 1932 01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:22,200 Speaker 2: right amongst registered voters. Hey, have a great day. It's 1933 01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 2: good to see you again.
