1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: So now they're saying they're not going to talk about redistricting,

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: We're just going to Washington, d C.

3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 2: For fun.

4
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 3: Is it for fun or is it for a policy forum?

5
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 3: So many Indiana Republican state lawmakers are visiting Washington, DC

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 3: today and it's to meet with members of the Trump administration.

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 4: The meeting will be held from one.

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 3: Until five today at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: So, but now they're trying to say it's not about redistricting.

10
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: Have these people ever heard of zoom?

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 4: It would have been a little cheaper.

12
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 3: Huh.

13
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: Well, right, this is the thing.

14
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: I mean, we're going to end up for a bunch

15
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: of these people, probably paying for them to go to Washington,

16
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: d C.

17
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: For what?

18
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: What information are you getting there that you don't already have?

19
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: And when it comes to implementing the Trump agenda, that's

20
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: not your job as a state lawmaker. That makes it

21
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: even worse.

22
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, your job is to represent me, right, you and Kevin.

23
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: If there is areas where you align up with Donald Trump,

24
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: then okay, there's a lot of areas. I don't aligne

25
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: up with Donald Trump, and I expect you to be

26
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: representing me and our state, not Donald Trump, who doesn't

27
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: live in Indiana.

28
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 4: So the White House sent the invitation late July.

29
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 3: It doesn't officially include redistricting as a topic, though it

30
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 3: does follow the Vice president's recent visit here in Indiana.

31
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, did he come just for fun too? Was this

32
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: just a good good time? I mean, look again the

33
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: maps in Indiana, and I think this is what's like.

34
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: At least Texas cared enough to lie to.

35
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: Us, right, they were like, we must do this because

36
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: of all the people who've moved into Texas. Okay, fine, whatever,

37
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: at least you put some effort. I mean, that's fine.

38
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: Whatever you've made it. You've made a concerned effort to

39
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: come over a plausible reason this might need to happen.

40
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: They're not even doing that here because there is none

41
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: there's no sizable population shift, there is nothing of any

42
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: sort of provable there's no sort of provable evidence of

43
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: some pressing issue. They're just like, yeah, we just are

44
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: totally subservient to Trump.

45
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 2: And regardless of what party you are, you should not

46
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: want it.

47
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: You should not want, ever want one grown ass man

48
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: being subservient to another grown ass man. The job of

49
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: an elected official is to represent you, not any other

50
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: elected official.

51
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: They represent you, the taxpayers of this state. And if you're.

52
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: Fine with saying, okay, I want I want the Shenanigans,

53
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: I want everything to be unfair. I want the purpose

54
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: of elections to be my desired result, and I don't

55
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: care how I get it, well, then okay, But then

56
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: you don't get to complain when other people do it.

57
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: It's why I've been so perplexed by some people saying, well,

58
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: it's fine, they do it at Texas, but California, that's wrong.

59
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 2: Well, no, you.

60
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 1: Can't expect that if one state views uber partisanship that

61
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: they're just going to stand back and take it if

62
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: they have the ability to do it. And so Indiana

63
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: is playing right into that. And what we're telling people

64
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: this is a major reason why people don't vote. We

65
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: just had this conversation last hour. People don't vote because

66
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: I think their vote doesn't matter. And what you're reinforcing

67
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: by this is that your vote in Indiana doesn't matter.

68
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: That the party bosses will decide whether it's going to

69
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: be a Republican or Democrat state, or a district or whatever,

70
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: whether it's going to be who's gonna get all the

71
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: money in the primaries who we're going to back, and

72
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: your vote is.

73
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 2: Just completely irrelevant.

74
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: And this is another reinforcing that our districts are already

75
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: rigged in favor of Republicans. Seven of our nine congressional

76
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: districts are Republican. If we drew the districts fair, keep

77
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: in mind they just changed the districts a couple of

78
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: years ago because Victoria Sparts was about to go down

79
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: and yell Timber. If we drew the districts fair, it

80
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: would be six to three. We've already We're not as

81
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: big as Illinois. We don't have the population Illinois has,

82
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: we don't have the ability to draw them the way

83
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: Illinois does. We could try, but the problem is illinoi

84
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: like Indianapolis, is right in the center of the state,

85
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: right Yeah, the Chicago is not the capital of the

86
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: state of Illinois. Illinois has unique geographical advantages as it

87
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: relates to districting that Indiana does not have.

88
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: And I'm not sure how you would even begin to.

89
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: Draw these districts staying in compliance with the federal law

90
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: and not in the next couple of years totally turn

91
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: these districts blue. If you put these Mary Keunny Democrats

92
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: in the district. I don't know, but I don't care

93
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: because that's not what it's about.

94
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 5: For me.

95
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: It's about having free and fair elections, not elections that

96
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: are subservient to Trump, not elections that reflect the will

97
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 1: of Trump. If people want more Trump and more Trump agenda,

98
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: the Republicans need to govern better and then people will

99
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: vote for them in the elections.

100
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 3: Okay, So they have done this similar situation with other states,

101
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 3: and redistricting wasn't on the agenda, it wasn't listed as

102
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: an item when the other states representatives went to visit.

103
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 4: So one hundred and ten Republican state lawmakers.

104
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: In Indiana, only eighty spots were available. So I'm really

105
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: curious how the eighty were determined? And was it last week?

106
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: We saw one after another, hour after hour, all of

107
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 3: these representatives coming out saying yes, I'm for redistricting, and

108
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: then pass an hour and then another one yep, me too,

109
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: and then another yep, me too. Was it because they

110
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 3: wanted to be on this invite list?

111
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: How are these people?

112
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 4: These people?

113
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: It's not saying people though, Casey, those people are US

114
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 2: reps that were doing that.

115
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: They already live in Washington, They already don't represent us here.

116
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 4: You're right, So it wasn't like state reps.

117
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, but you're right in the sense of there's

118
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: no way that's a coincidence. You don't have on the

119
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: after weeks of silence, and then on the hour, every hour,

120
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: these people start coming out. Between it was between two

121
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: and eight pm. It started with Marlon Stutsman on a

122
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: shriev were one of those people the last one to

123
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: come out. You don't like, there's nother way that's quincentce.

124
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: This is all scripted, and what's going to be fascinating

125
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: is the leadership of Indiana's Republican Party, Houston and Bray

126
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: Rod Bray the pro tim of the Senate, Houston the

127
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. They don't want this because it's

128
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: a giant headache for them, that does nothing for them

129
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: because they don't represent in Washington, and now they're going

130
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: to be at risk of potentially angering a group of

131
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: people who otherwise may not participate.

132
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 3: All right, coming up, we're going to add a voice

133
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 3: here to our little show. Patrick from Hello America is

134
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 3: going to be joining us.

135
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 2: Hello America, sub Hello America. So he's your TikTok friend?

136
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 2: Is that right?

137
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 4: I just met him today for the first time.

138
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: He's somebody who shows up on my feed often and

139
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: he says stuff like this, Hey.

140
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 6: What's up, America.

141
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 7: You'll never actually own your home because you're still paying

142
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 7: property taxes. Yes, an unmentionable truth that homeowners never want

143
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 7: to hear, the fact that you've paid off your entire house.

144
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 7: You have the deed, you've been paying on it for

145
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 7: thirty years, but then the pesky lifelong obligation of property

146
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 7: taxes rears its ugly head. Property taxes exist in all

147
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 7: fifty states, and all fifty states will seize your house

148
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 7: in order to pay off the difference of property taxes

149
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 7: that you are derelict on if you don't pay it.

150
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 7: So it doesn't matter that you've paid on a house

151
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 7: for thirty years. If you don't pay the property tax

152
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 7: for whatever reason, they'll just seize your house. And when

153
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 7: I mean they, I mean states, the state that you

154
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 7: live in, they will seize your house. This has happened

155
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 7: a great deal of times throughout the United States, where

156
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 7: somebody will pay off a four hundred thousand dollars house

157
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 7: years pass. The person that's the homeowner that has the

158
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 7: deed falls into sickness, can't pay the property taxes after

159
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 7: it a cruise. Then the state comes and takes the house.

160
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 7: They pay off the deal, friends give you the remains

161
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 7: of the money with a penalty, of course attached. Then

162
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 7: the house goes back on the market and some refugee

163
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 7: family gets it, while you're left holding the bag with

164
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 7: less money from a short sale house, and somebody else

165
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 7: is now getting to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

166
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 7: Doesn't that sound like a great country? Doesn't that sound

167
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 7: like the American dream? Paying thirty years on a house

168
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 7: and always paying property tax to the government till the

169
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 7: day you and your children die. That sounds like the

170
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 7: American dream, doesn't it. Yeah, that sounds like some bullshit

171
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 7: if you ask me. So it's time nationwide we get

172
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,640

Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait, this is what freaks me out

180
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 1: about TikTok. You don't know this person, well, you do now,

181
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: but that you didn't know this person, He just he

182
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: just shows up in your world.

183
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 4: Correct, as I'm scrolling through social.

184
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 2: Media, and that's like normal on TikTok.

185
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that is just like that doesn't freak you

186
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: out at all that some person you'd never met before,

187
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: not like it's Taylor Swift.

188
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: It's just some person. He just shows up in your orbit, right.

189
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I can just swipe and keep going,

190
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 3: or I can continue to listen what this person has

191
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: to say.

192
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 4: The more I listen, the more often he shows up.

193
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: I got so like if you, if you were to

194
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: it is literally like dating, if you just turned your

195
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: back on this person.

196
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: They would go away, go away.

197
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: Correct, But because you and you let him buy you

198
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: a drink, the TikTok version of buying you a drink.

199
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 2: Now he keeps showing up in your orbit.

200
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: Now with TikTok, you know, just like any other platform,

201
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: I could block him if I don't ever want to

202
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 3: wipe him again.

203
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 2: So this is like the version of a restraining order

204
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: you could get on the pile I could.

205
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: You know, I don't have TikTok, so I don't know

206
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: how it works, but I do acknowledge that there are

207
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: people who are famous on the Internet who I don't

208
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: understand the orbit yet there they are.

209
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly, And I thought it was really interesting, especially

210
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 3: given that the White House just created a TikTok account.

211
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 3: How much that influences people and their decisions because we know,

212
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 3: we know rob people are spending hours a day on

213
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 3: these platforms. Now, our next guest not only is he

214
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 3: on TikTok, but he's got a YouTube page as.

215
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 2: Well, and he's from right here in central India.

216
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 5: Correct.

217
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 4: I'm sure he's going to give us more details.

218
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 3: So when I originally started encountering him, I knew he

219
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 3: was speaking to the nation because the account was sub America.

220
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I believe it.

221
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 3: Got banned and then it transitioned into Hello America.

222
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 2: And this is like you go by Dwayne in the

223
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:53,880

228
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 3: I found out that he's actually from the South side

229
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 3: of Indianapolis. So Patrick from Hello America is joining the

Speaker 3: Do you ever interact with people from other states and

315
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 3: they say things like, wow, my gas prices are really

316
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 3: high here too, or yes, I'm here in Florida and

317
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 3: our governor wants you get rid of property taxes as well.

318
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 4: Sorry you're in Indiana.

319
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 6: Oh. I hear it all the time, and I complain

320
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 6: about Indiana all the time. And I meet people from

321
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 6: timetime down in Tennessee and Georgia and all the other

322
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 6: places I've been, but I hear constantly it's always a

323
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 6: tax burden. Especially in the liberal states, if you want

324
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 6: to call it that. So, I have people contacted me

325
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 6: when I do gas price videos and they're like, oh, well,

326
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 6: it's five dollars a gallon in California, And I'm like, oh,

327
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 6: I'm sorry about you. Compared to where I'm at, that

328
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 6: is just a terrible burden. But then where I'm at

329
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 6: right now, we're the good republican state of Inuana. Yeah,

330
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 6: we're paying what thirty six cents a gallon extra and

331
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 6: gas tax it was just raised recently, plus sales xis,

332
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 6: plus the federal taxes. It's like, what are we doing here?

333
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 6: We're supposed to be a good republican state. We have

334
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 6: almost as many taxes as they do in California.

335
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: So did you, like, did you follow politics or like

336
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: when you were at the gas station that day and

337
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: you made the video, like, were you like, hey, I

338
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: know who all the members of the General Assembly.

339
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: Are like or if you had to learn all that,

340
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 2: like what is.

341
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 6: How I still don't know the General Assembly most of them.

342
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 6: One of my happy yeah no kidding one of my

343
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 6: professors in grad school. She worked for Mike Pence and

344
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 6: said that he was not the most intelligent human I

345
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 6: think he was just a company man, and so that

346
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 6: kind of where it started to our show. Yeah, and

347
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 6: so I've been dealing, dabbling in this off and on

348
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 6: that I haven't really followed a lot.

349
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 4: What do you hope to accomplish?

350
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 6: Lower prices for everything and more freedom?

351
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 2: So that's basically it's very simple. That's a great business plan.

352
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely, we should start a business casey where that's what

353
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: we say, lower prices for everyone and more freedom.

354
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 3: Yes, it seems to me that you do an excellent

355
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 3: job of something similar that Rob does is ranting. However,

356
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 3: from time to time Rob will offer solutions. Do you

357
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 3: want to be in the solution business or just in

358
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 3: the clicks and views? Complain with me?

359
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 5: Oh?

360
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 6: No, both, it has to be both. I mean, obviously

361
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 6: you have to yell and complain about the problems because

362
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 6: people are so burdened in their daily lives they don't

363
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 6: even see it. They just keep paying and paying and paying,

364
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 6: and most people don't even know why. It just gets

365
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 6: higher and higher. So if you don't offer a solution,

366
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 6: you're just a guy screaming into the winds. So there's

367
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 6: nothing that can be you know, done off of that.

368
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 6: You have to have some kind of solution, and I

369
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 6: try to put some solution, but I get very rant worthy,

370
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 6: so I start yelling about it, and people like what

371
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 6: are you supposed to do about it? And then when

372
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 6: I get to the solutions, people don't hear the solutions

373
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 6: as much as they hear the complaint, which is generally human.

374
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 6: I could see that.

375
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: But Patrick is our guest. He is big on the TikTok.

376
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: He's Casey's friend on TikTok. Hello America, sup is your account?

377
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 1: When you go to a Walmart? Do people recognize you?

378
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: Really really see you?

379
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 6: Yeah?

380
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: It's really creepy really, and you're just like, I do

381
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 1: they say I know you on the internet or from somewhere?

382
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 6: Yeah?

383
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 2: I see now.

384
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 3: This just happened to Rob over the weekend, and he

385
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 3: stopped and talked to the listener and had a nice

386
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 3: conversation and engaged.

387
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 4: What do you do? Do you run away?

388
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: Like they want you to rant? Right, they want you

389
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: to Sam Kinnison like, yeah, yeah, normously look for them.

390
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 6: Yeah, and they'll look at it. And one girl I

391
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 6: saw in a plain Field Meyer and she was like,

392
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 6: I'm on the internet too much and just walks away.

393
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 4: Right.

394
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 6: I'm like I completely understand. I wouldn't want to talk

395
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 6: to me either if I saw me for six hours

396
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 6: a day on TikTok.

397
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 3: You're very good at breaking I don't want to say breaking,

398
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 3: but you're very timely with your videos, Like news will

399
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 3: come out and you've got a video up within minutes

400
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 3: about Oh.

401
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 6: I've got text feeds that come in when these stories break,

402
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 6: and so it's just a constant supply.

403
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 3: Where where are you getting your information from? How discerning

404
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 3: are you with your sources?

405
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 6: I get them from the Drudge Report, London Daily Mail.

406
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 6: I don't really go to Russia Today very much or

407
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 6: Spotnik anymore, but I try to find more reputable sources

408
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 6: associated press, Reuters, types of stuff like that, things that

409
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 6: you would consider would be worthy for TikTok standards. They

410
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 6: only use a certain type of news feed. So if

411
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 6: I find something like the London Daily Mail, I have

412
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 6: to verify that it exists actually, because they they're a

413
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 6: tabloid from the United Kingdom that's trying to break into

414
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 6: the United States, if you want to call it that.

415
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 6: So they have a lot of information that's kind of spotty.

416
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 6: So I like to verify right bounce around the multi yes,

417
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 6: So sometimes I'll have stories. It'll be you know, like

418
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 6: a four later or whatever, because I just want to

419
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,679
Speaker 6: make sure it's real before I come out.

420
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: Real quick, before I let you go.

421
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 1: I tell Casey I'm afraid for her because she's on

422
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: the China app.

423
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: Just the TikTok are you? You're an it guy to

424
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 2: be very worried.

425
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: About the China selling your stealing and selling your it

426
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: is god awful.

427
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 6: Okay, it is god awful. YouTube provides a lot more

428
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 6: security than which I'm much smaller on YouTube. But TikTok,

429
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 6: they absolutely send your data to bite. It does bother me.

430
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 6: At the same time, the money is tolerable, so.

431
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 4: You are monetizing.

432
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: I am.

433
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 6: I'm willing to sell dignity further well, because they how

434
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 6: do I put this, They have some of my information,

435
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 6: but they don't have all of it. So as I

436
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 6: switch my information, I'm also switched to them. So byte

437
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 6: Dance because as you know, obviously TikTok's owned by byte

438
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 6: Dance was the Chinese parent company. But when they say that, oh,

439
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 6: we don't use any of your data, that is an

440
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 6: absolute lie. They absolutely do that and they and they

441
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 6: probably make a billion dollars off of it selling it.

442
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,239
Speaker 1: If people want to follow you, find you so they

443
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 1: can see you at a Walmart and have an awkward

444
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 1: engagement with you, how would.

445
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 2: They do that?

446
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 6: Just go on TikTok, look up Hello America's up? Or

447
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 6: just look up Hello America's up on anything? Or the

448
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 6: sub America guy? Have you branded that?

449
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 3: Like?

450
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 6: Is there an R with the snow right? That's your name?

451
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 3: Hell?

452
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 6: Every time I would brand it, they would just ban

453
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 6: me enough to brand another one.

454
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 3: I want to give you a topic really quick before

455
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 3: you leave. Would you be able to.

456
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 4: Do a ranch?

457
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 6: Probably?

458
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 4: You know, do give me the show?

459
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 6: Yeah? Absolutely?

460
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 4: Okay, let's let's go with something easy.

461
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: Can you do it in like thirty seconds?

462
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 6: I could try?

463
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 2: Yeah?

464
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 6: Okay, very good, look at it?

465
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 2: You name it.

466
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 4: You want to do property taxes or energy?

467
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 2: Property taxes is great?

468
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 6: Okay? So property taxes in Indiana is an absolute burden

469
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 6: on the individual and businesses. They have a one two

470
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 6: three percent cap rule depending on what it is. But

471
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 6: the problem is is the prices of housing and businesses

472
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 6: go up, so you're burdened more and more and more

473
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 6: as time goes on and you have less and less money.

474
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 6: Which you passed that freaking burden onto the consumer, and

475
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 6: then it's our higher prices for us. But if you

476
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 6: get rid of property taxes, you're losing what twelve to

477
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 6: fifteen billion, which even if you legalized weed, there's no

478
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 6: way the tax burden on that would cover that. So

479
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 6: it's like you're screwed coming in, going in this place,

480
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 6: and there's no way you can get out of it.

481
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 6: But for God's sake, we got to do something to

482
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 6: lower property taxes and gas prices. I don't care if

483
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 6: you have to shoehorn it out of people. For God's sake,

484
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 6: stop charging people so much.

485
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 2: That's great. So when I get fired, here there's your

486
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 2: there's my replacement.

487
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 4: I just wanted to give you a rest for a day.

488
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 6: No, no, I can't do it alone. I gotta have people.

489
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 6: I'm too in.

490
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 3: Just another voice to add to the mix. Patrick from

491
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 3: Hello America, thank you for being here today.

492
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:35,959
Speaker 6: Casey and Robb, you guys are awesome.

493
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 2: Your boyfriend's in the news.

494
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 4: My boyfriend sing I did. I love them a lot

495
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 4: when I was younger.

496
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 2: Now we should be we should clarify the police.

497
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: Well when we talk sting, there's also a very famous

498
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: professional wrestler name Sting. So we're talking about Sting the

499
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: recording artists.

500
00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're talking about Gordon.

501
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 2: Yes, you know what.

502
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 4: Sting was good, but he wasn't even my favorite in

503
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 4: the band. It was Stuart Copelan who was my favorite.

504
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 2: The Police were a three piece band.

505
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 4: Yep.

506
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 1: By the way, isn't it weird that there was a

507
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: Gordon Sumner and yet Alf was named Gordon Shumway, Like,

508
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: I mean, that's very close to each other. So close

509
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: Alf the television show character from the nineteen eighties. Okay,

510
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: so the Police were a famous three piece band. They

511
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: were English band seventy seven to eighty four. I think

512
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 1: they were active together. Sting was the megastar that came

513
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: out out of the Police. But they had what they've

514
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,719
Speaker 1: sold some like seventy five million albums. I mean, they

515
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: were obviously a massive, massive success in the late seventies

516
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: and early eighties, and probably the pinnacle the Police was

517
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: every breath you Take.

518
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, best selling song of nineteen eighty.

519
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 2: Three is that their Stairway to Heaven is everybody you take?

520
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 2: Is that they're big?

521
00:22:55,280 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: Now, any well versed music fan, we get to that

522
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: in a second Sting is now being sued by the

523
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: other two.

524
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Andy Summers and Stuart Copeland. They're suing him over

525
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 3: unpaid royalties and also lack of co writing credits on

526
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 3: the song Every Breath You Take.

527
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: Now, the Daily Mail claim that Sting has earned Now

528
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: this is in pounds. I don't know what's the pound

529
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: to got it? Okay, do you know what the number is? Okay?

530
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 2: What is five hundred and fifty thousand pounds?

531
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 4: About seven hundred and forty thousand dollars?

532
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 1: Okay, so a pound is worth more than a dollar then, okay,

533
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: So they claimed Sting earns five hundred and fifty thousand

534
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: pounds annually, which is how much.

535
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 3: Seven hundred and forty It's between seven hundred and thirty

536
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 3: and seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

537
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 2: Okay, just nothing, he does nothing.

538
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: He just gets money that shows up because he wrote

539
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: or claimed he wrote right Every Breath You.

540
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 4: Take and it's still being played right, and so.

541
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 2: The other two bup gets zip.

542
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: Right, and so the Copeland and Summers they say, wait

543
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: a second, we had a role in writing the song.

544
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: We have been owed millions of dollars based on that.

545
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: This is how much this guy makes every year, yep,

546
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: and now they're suing him in some sort of English court, right.

547
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 3: They're saying that they've never received any royalties on proper

548
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 3: songwriting recognition. So every year radio stations across the country

549
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 3: they have to fill out these BMI asscap for.

550
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 5: Oh, boy and boy.

551
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 4: It's a lot easier than it used to be.

552
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: I mean you used to actually have to physically handwrite

553
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 3: it out, but now the computer systems will just print

554
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 3: out a report for you.

555
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: So, like Insider Baseball here, just want to make sure

556
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: people understand what you're saying. There are three major BMI

557
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 1: ascap csack, or at least there were music publishing companies

558
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: that get you that radio stations or bars or anybody

559
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: who play all music and commercial any sort of commercial

560
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 1: entity that plays licensed music. If you're a major artist,

561
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: you're under one of those three and you have to

562
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: pay them, and the fees vary based on which company

563
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 1: it is is.

564
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 2: But you pay them.

565
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: A fee every year in order to play their music

566
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: their music, and then you fill out a form saying

567
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 1: what music you played, and then the money is divvied

568
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: up based on how often a song gets played.

569
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 4: Right, So at a radio station.

570
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 3: They'll print out this report and they could potentially say

571
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 3: we played every Breath you take ten times over the

572
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 3: past year, and then that report is sent to Delutnetuche,

573
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 3: which is an accounting firm, and then they send it

574
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 3: out to the artists and say, Okay, you're going to

575
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 3: get a check for this amount of money based on

576
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 3: this one radio station playing every breath you take ten times. Now,

577
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 3: if you put that across this country alone, you're talking

578
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 3: about fifty thousand radio.

579
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 1: Stag And what some people may not realize is song

580
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 1: writing is where the money's at actually.

581
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 3: Right and writing Why these guys are suing Andy Summers

582
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 3: and Stuart Copelander suing Sting because they want co writing

583
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 3: credits because in the ports you always have to say

584
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 3: who is the writer of the song?

585
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 2: Right?

586
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're a Sting megafan, I have a hot

587
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: take for you. You tell me if I'm way out in

588
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 1: left field in this, because I'm not a Sting mega fan.

589
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 4: We're going to be a synchronous in this.

590
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 1: I think Fields of Gold is a hundred times the

591
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 1: song Every Breath You Take.

592
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 4: Is really can we do a comparative, Well.

593
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: What is your opinion because on the fact you said, really,

594
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: I don't know my house.

595
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: That usually doesn't go well.

596
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 4: Really I don't agree.

597
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: That's fine.

598
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 5: What did you say that.

599
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 4: I was alive when every breath you take was like

600
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 4: the song of the year.

601
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: And I will see when you're blinded by personal bias,

602
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: you're not You're not thinking rationally.

603
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 4: I don't think Fields of what is it? Fields of gold?

604
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: Fields of Gold feel incredibly. It's incredible sentimental song. It's

605
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: at everybody that he takes about a stalker. It's someone

606
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: being stalked. Fields of Gold is sentimental.

607
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 3: Sting describes a song is having an ambiguous tone, capable

608
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 3: of being interpreted either romantic or siness.

609
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 1: keV can we play these songs back to back? Why

610
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: don't we play every breath you take first?

611
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 2: Can I do that?

612
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,199
Speaker 1: Kevin is gonna pull that up because I want you

613
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: people to hear this song is about somebody being stalk and.

614
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 3: You're he wrote the song while he was staying in

615
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 3: a house in Jamaica that once belonged to it.

616
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: The whole sting Son is very weird to me, Kevin,

Speaker 3: See, yeah, you take it that way straining or materium

Speaker 3: right here.

Speaker 5: Yeah, it's creepy.

623
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 4: Okay, so we got we're taking the senator sinister side.

624
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 2: What do you think it is?

625
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,960

630
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: what you want it to be. I mean, he's saying

631
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: it right there, is like I'll be watching you, no

632
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: I or.

633
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 4: He sang through the good and the bad, I'll be

634
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 4: there for you.

635
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: Now, compare that incredibly creepy song with this musical master piper.

636
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 4: Okay, you're.

637
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 5: Well those.

638
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 2: You forcket this song and is jealous Scott Walk.

639
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 5: That's beautiful.

640
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is pretty very You can imagine the picture

641
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 3: in your mind exactly with that one.

642
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, lyrics matter? Are those bagpipes?

643
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 5: Yes?

644
00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 4: That makes it even better, so sting.

645
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 3: They released five albums and think about that, nineteen seventy

646
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 3: seven to nineteen eighty four.

647
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 4: Not a long amount of time.

648
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 2: Oh it's seven years, right.

649
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 4: Five albums and a lot of major hits.

650
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 3: Roxanne Message in a bottle, Every little thing she does

651
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 3: is magic.

652
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, Sting kind of did the thing.

653
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: And you see this a lot where these guys. He

654
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: kind of became bigger than the group itself, or at

655
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: least in his mind he was bigger than the group itself.

656
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 4: He had LSD lead singer's disease.

657
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I mean, he had a reasonably successful

658
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: solo career. I don't think he achieved the heights he

659
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: did with him, but this will be fascinating to see

660
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: a play out. And I just wanted to touch on

661
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: that because I know you are a massive Sting fan

662
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,959
Speaker 1: and your boys alleged to be screwing his buddies, and

663
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: so I wanted you.

664
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 4: To Yeah, I hope they win.

665
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: I hope they win because they deserve the songwriting credit.

666
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 4: It was a band.

667
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 3: If Sting had written that song as just Sting without

668
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 3: the Andy, and Stuart then got.

669
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 2: A first name basis with a solo career.

670
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 3: You know, if that was the song he released during

671
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 3: his solo career, yeah, that should be his. But he

672
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: did it as a band, so the band should get creditble.

673
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 2: One guy is way older than the other two.

674
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 4: Which one the Sandy Summers.

675
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't realize he was that.

676
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: Sting and Stuart Copeland are both seventy three years old,

677
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: and Andy Summers is like nine years older than those two.

678
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 4: I mean, he's get him his money quick.

679
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 2: He's not far on time.

680
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 4: Okay, can we.

681
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 3: Talk about how there are many parents that are going

682
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 3: into debt over supporting their children.

683
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 2: Yes, let's see that. When we come back.

684
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 4: It's Kendilly Casey on ninety three WYBC.

685
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: So basically, future generations are, yeah, totally screwed.

686
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 2: Don't you're telling me?

687
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 4: Is that what I'm saying?

688
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know.

689
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 3: I'm saying parents are paying for their children a lot

690
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 3: longer and a lot more than they ever have. Six

691
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 3: and ten American parents have taken on debt to provide

692
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 3: for their children.

693
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: Like, well, you're okay, look, I get somebody's always your kid,

694
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: but I mean, like children's kind of a get you're

695
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: an adult at some point, right, Like you gotta you

696
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: gotta take over. You know, you don't got to go

697
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: be responsible, you don't got to go home, but you

698
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: can't stay here type of thing, right, I mean, so

699
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: what does this tell us right, and there are some

700
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: people who who as adults take care of their elderly parents,

701
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: et cetera. But like, what does that tell us that

702
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: into adulthood parents are still feeling a financial pressure to

703
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: take care of their kids, because that goes way beyond

704
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: like taking out debt.

705
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 2: What what was the statistic again, six.

706
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 3: And ten they took out debt, have taken on debt

707
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 3: to provide for their children.

708
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's even way beyond like, hey, my kid

709
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: just lives with me or whatever, right, Like, that's you're paying.

710
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 3: That person's Our debt is the most common, averaging nearly

711
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 3: fifteen thousand dollars.

712
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 2: Okay, but for what unless there's some sort of medical expense.

713
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 4: Medical debt, personal loans, student loans.

714
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: Loan, Yeah, all that other stuff is ridiculous. Mortgage is well,

715
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 1: but that's I'm saying. If your medical debt is one thing,

716
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: maybe you know, it happens to people whatever, But the

717
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: idea of all this other stuff, you took all that unwillingly,

718
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: and especially if you're a person who's living at home

719
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: or whatever, what logical reason if you're working would you

720
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: have for your parents to be paying for your stuff?

721
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. It might be kind of

722
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: nice to move back in. Not all I would have

723
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: to do is walk across the lawn, right I'm here?

724
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 4: True, would you be welcomed with open arms? No, you

725
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 4: can go back to your old bedroom even Yeah, sure, I.

726
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: Sure wouldn't be welcome. I would I'm told every day

727
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: when I'm there. Well, I look at your time. It's

728
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: been nice to see you today. Side, don't you have

729
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: some parenting to do?

730
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 4: Put along time for you to go.

731
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 3: Sixty three percent of parents say they feel they have limited.

732
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 4: Control over the cost of raising children.

733
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 2: Now are they talking like kids?

734
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 4: They're talking about from five to twelve years old?

735
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 2: Now they say that again that.

736
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 3: Sixty three percent of parents feel that they have limited

737
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 3: control over the cost of raising their children.

738
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 4: Well, certain things you got to buy?

739
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, are there are?

740
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: I mean you gotta look, it's getting We've talked about this.

741
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: I mean I had the ninety dollars for the six

742
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: little bags of groceries the other day. You gotta be

743
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: you know, somewhat smart about it. If you can buy

744
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: in bulk, okay, but even like, do you do this?

745
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: I do the price the what do they call it?

746
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 1: The per unit thing? Like if you go to Walmart

747
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: and there's something where you can buy two of them

748
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 1: or one of them, and they'll do the unit price.

749
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 1: They call it unit price, the amount of money you save. Like, Okay,

750
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: here's an example. I needed shaving cream. Didn't clearly use

751
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: it today, but I'll be using it later today. So

752
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: I went to the store the other day and they

753
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: had you can buy the one or the two. Now,

754
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: technically it was cheaper to buy two, but I looked

755
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: at the unit price and it's like, Okay, we're gonna

756
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: save a dollar, but it'll take me several months to

757
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: go through one of these things. Is it worth it

758
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: for me to outlay an extra three dollars to save

759
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: one dollar for three months?

760
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 2: The answer is just no, it's just not so.

761
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 4: You bought the one. I bought the one, okay, But like.

762
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, so, there's to an extent, especially even a

763
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: larger family can buy in bulk and save. But even

764
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: that doesn't really do all that much for you. Are

765
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: we are stuck in price purgatory? Like we are totally screwed.

766
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 1: And when you look at the fact that what are

767
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: they proposing to do? They're going to try to cut

768
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: interest rates. Again, it's always the same stuff. Because the

769
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 1: politicians have so screwed up the economy, they made the

770
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: economy so unworkable for regular people. The only way to

771
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: keep fooling people trying to fool people is just this

772
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 1: magical money printing factory.

773
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 3: Twenty seven percent of parents have, on average, a medical

774
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 3: debt of twelve thousand dollars.

775
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: Now that is for that is not just adult kids though, right, No,

776
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: that's well, yeah, I mean, you know, I can see that, like,

777
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: I mean, even you think about for most people, the

778
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: whole you go in the moment your kid inners is

779
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: earth like what it costs to birth a child. I mean,

780
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: that's not that's not cheap.

781
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 2: I mean, and.

782
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: Most hospitals are very kind and they'll allow you to

783
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: pay it off over time, payment plans whatever. But you still,

784
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 1: you know, you owe the money. And so that doesn't

785
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: shock me at all that if you you know, you

786
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,279
