1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: It's seven twenty nine at fifty five k or CD 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: talk station. Try to have happy Friday and maybe start 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: yourself at Turning Point USA chapter. Everyone's doing it these days, 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: of course, Charlie Kirk, the founding member of Turning Point USA, 5 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: extraordinary accomplishments in his thirty short years of life. Obviously, 6 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: you know the story behind Charlie Kirk's assassination is just 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: a heinous act, unforgivable, but something that I think made 8 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: a massive martyr out of Charlie Kirk and has allowed him, 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: even in death, to extend even further his sound message 10 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: of open debate and exchange of ideas thoughtfully, without anger 11 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: and violence. And someone who knows all about that, Diana 12 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: tell Us, who's here to talk about a new Turning 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 1: Point USA chapter under in the Empower You umbrella. Diana, 14 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: it's welcome to the program. Thanks for coming on today. 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 2: Well, thanks for having me. It's good to be here. 16 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: You work with Dan Regnold of Empower You on this one. 17 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: I am yeah. So I recently had joined the board 18 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 2: and he had questioned what kind of time I could give, 19 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: And in that conversation I mentioned that my son, my 20 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: youngest Michael, who is Homeschools had asked me to start 21 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: a Turning Point chapter actually last year, and I had 22 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: been trying to work that out, thinking about the possibilities 23 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: within the homeschool community, and he said to me, well, 24 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 2: why don't you do that through empower you? And that 25 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 2: offer was just I couldn't have asked for a better offer. 26 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: To serve the students at Writer Cincinnati and to have 27 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 2: some s faith. And he knows a lot of people. 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: He's great to work with and is very, very connected, 29 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 2: far more connected than I am. 30 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's more connected than any of us could ever 31 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: hope to be. Assuming we want to be connected, Diana, 32 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: Dan's a great guy. 33 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: We want to be connected. He's the guy to start with. 34 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: Sure, and for a Turning Point USA chapter, I gotta 35 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: have it. I have an idea. Dan Reagunill firmly embraced 36 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: this concept. Now do you need Yeah? Does does one? 37 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: In order to start a TPUSA And for my listeners, 38 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: go to the website TPA Turning Point USA tpusa dot com. 39 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: Does it need to be beneath an educational institution? I 40 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: know a lot of these Turning Point USA chapters are 41 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: present or on or alive and well on college campuses, 42 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: just like any other college campus organization. But like, let's 43 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: just say, Diana, if you wanted to start a Turning 44 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: Point USA chapter, can you just do it and just say, hey, 45 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: we're meeting at my home kind of thing, or do 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: you need to be need to be beneath a higher 47 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: education or some other institution like in this case, empower you. 48 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 2: Right, that's a great question. So in our case, I 49 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 2: did meet with a rep back in the spring. They're 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 2: a little hard to find right now. Yeah, the rep 51 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: in this area, she actually had left and they were 52 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: finding somebody new. So they were in flux already before 53 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 2: Charlie kirksissascination. But what I learned in what little time 54 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 2: I spent with them is that you probably could. They 55 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: have what's called we're actually called a hub according to 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 2: that organization, the TPUSA, or a hub, because we are 57 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: not affiliated with a school and therefore for their purposes, 58 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 2: we needed to give a region. If we didn't have 59 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 2: a high school name then or a college name for example, 60 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: we would need something. So we chose Dan and I 61 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 2: talked about it. We chose Greater Cincinnati and that opened 62 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: it up to all, you know, any high school student 63 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: in the greater Cincinnati area, which at the time didn't 64 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: seem quite as daunting. At this point, after Charlie Kirks's 65 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: fascination and after everything that's happened, it's a it feels 66 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: like a lot, but the crowd that we're getting has 67 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: been very manageable, and we'll see moving forward what that 68 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: looks like. But you probably don't. You could be a hub. 69 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 2: I was told that there's a group that meets a 70 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: small patriotic group of students. It might even be in Cincinnati, 71 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 2: but somewhere in southern Ohio, and they sit around the 72 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 2: campfire and talk about you know, I guess politics because 73 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: looks if because look the way you want it to 74 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: look right right, We're going to we're going to try 75 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: and do a little more than a lot more than 76 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: that in this chapter. If we're going to have family 77 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: starting all over to meet and empower you, then we're 78 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: going to put our best foot forward and make this 79 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: something bigger and better than that. 80 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: Great well, you know, conceptually, it's you know, like I 81 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: was talking earlier about college education. You know, if you're 82 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: going to college for like an art degree, you can 83 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: study art online. It's a hobby. You can learn it 84 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: on your own study van go study the classics, good 85 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: at the moment whatever. And but conservatism as a philosophy 86 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: in this Charlie Kirk mentality and how he approached it 87 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 1: is a certain like a recipe, it's a formula. Do 88 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: you get assistance from TPUSA in starting a chapter? Do 89 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: they have resource materials? Do they have guides? They have 90 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: instruction materials that kind of thing. 91 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, they do, they do. And I have my own 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 2: vision too, which we are allowed to apply to that right. 93 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 2: But they do offer, like if they're going to talk 94 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 2: about free speech, for example, would be a free speech 95 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 2: presentation that is on the web page that we could 96 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: actually you know, show that in the group. And then 97 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: my vision is to have you know, an expert from 98 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 2: the community come in that can speak tree speech and 99 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: apply it. Teach these kids exactly what it means. It 100 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: means that you know what the government cannot do, but 101 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: that if your boss decides they don't like the way 102 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: you're shouting it out, you know on social media, they 103 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: can fire you. So make it clear of these kids 104 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: what that means, because they're going they're hearing all kinds 105 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: of messaging and social media and and make clarification on that. 106 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: But I'm not an expert. I'm just doing the best 107 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 2: I can. I'm a patriotic American and I love freedom 108 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: and absolutely limit limited government for sure and self covernance. 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 2: So but but we get an expert in and what 110 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: I what I really want to do is I want 111 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: to show that material and use what they've given us. 112 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: But I think a fresh voice as much as possible 113 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 2: in the room with them, and that we sit, you know, 114 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: they sit among us, so that we're engaging the students, 115 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: not just talking at them like they're at school. I'm 116 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 2: really going to try and do that. I'm still learning 117 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: and it's still evolving, but that will be my vision 118 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 2: moving forwards. And you guys are. 119 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: Engaging them, and you said it out like you homeschooled, 120 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: so you have a you have appreciation for the concept 121 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: of teaching and instructing, I mean your own child. That's 122 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: got to be very complicated and difficult, at least from 123 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: my perspective. But the idea of engaging in sort of 124 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: a Socratic method discussion, the exchange back and forth, which 125 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: is one of the things I love so much about 126 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: law school. I don't know they do that anymore, but 127 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, asking questions of the students, the students asking 128 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: questions back in that exchange. It's really wonderful to develop 129 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: your well logical and critical thinking skills. I'm going to 130 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: bring Diana back. We'll talk a little bit more about 131 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: the Turning Point USA chapter under the Empower You umbrella 132 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: and where they might be meeting more with Diana Telli's 133 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: station seven forty here fifty five KCD talk station Donna Schwabin. 134 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: Octoberfest is going on this weekend. We'll hear from the 135 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: Donna Schwabin folks who will be in studio. God bless 136 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: each and every one of them. Eight h five. Right 137 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: now we're talking with Diana Tellis. She's a board member 138 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: of Empower You America and good for her. Obviously, a 139 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: very true patriot, saw the work of Charlie Kirk and 140 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: like so many other people after he was assassinated and 141 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: even beforehand, open chapters for Turning Point USA to do 142 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: the work that Charlie Kirk was doing. Political philosophy, a 143 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: conservative one of course, and having a nice exchange, hopefully 144 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: it remains friendly exchange with your political adversaries is what 145 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: he's all about. Just trying to win the hearts and 146 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: minds of those on the other side of the political 147 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: ledger who really they don't get us, Diana, they really don't. 148 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: I think about the criticism of Charlie Kirk and the 149 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: cal him a fascist and misogynist or whatever, and he 150 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: cloaked much of his political philosophy philosophy and it all 151 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: sprung from his profound religious faith. And I just am 152 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: so bothered by liberals who immediately upon learning or understanding 153 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: that Charlie Kirk right quite often relied on his Christian 154 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: faith as an inspiration that immediately makes him a bad guy. 155 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: They don't get it that Charlie Kirk was interested in 156 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: their salvation as well. He did it as a matter 157 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: of compassion, concern, and love. He wants other people, or 158 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: he wanted other people to experience the enlightenment that he 159 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: felt so they'd enjoy life the way he did. That's 160 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: an evil, Diana. I just I struggle with that conceptually. 161 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: But that's who you're going to be working with when 162 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: you're engaging these folks, So a lot of hurdles to overcome, 163 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: and you're starting to turn our life. Yeah, so where 164 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: are you in process with this starting of this chapter, 165 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: because I'm wanting to know how people can get in 166 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: touch with you on the progress or when and where 167 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: the meetings are going to be. And we're going to 168 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: figure out where they're taking place too. But where are 169 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: you in process? Has the chapter officially been opened? Where 170 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: are we? 171 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: Yes, we've already had our last meeting last Thursday. And yes, 172 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: I agree with you on Charlie Kirk. What a gift 173 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 2: that was that we had in him, that he was 174 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: concerned with everyone's salvation right, and we want that to 175 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: be the self governance and obedience to God is the 176 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,599 Speaker 2: basis of what this country was founded on. And we 177 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 2: want to propagate that. And we can't do it in 178 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: our schools. They're not doing it in our schools for sure. 179 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 2: In fact, the opposite message. So we're going to do 180 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 2: our best to make this work and make this attractive 181 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: to students. In fact, i'd like to see candidates from 182 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: it could be even both sides put us on their 183 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: list of places to visit every time they're running for office, 184 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: to check in with the turning point kids of Greater Cincinnati. 185 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 2: What a great thing that would be, and they can 186 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: be inspired or not to help a candidate if they 187 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: wanted to, we wouldn't push that, but they are certainly 188 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: welcome to do that. So we have launched. We launched 189 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: last week on Thursday at the Empower Youth Studios at 190 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: Great Oaks and we had seventy people in the room, 191 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: roughly probably between forty and fifty students. A lot of 192 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: adults were there too, and I understand that the parents 193 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 2: wanted to kind of get a feel for what this 194 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: is going to look like and it may not look 195 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: like that that day. That was a pizza pizza launch party, 196 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 2: but we had Adam Bullet from Americans for Prosperity talk 197 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: to the students and it went very very well. We 198 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: were very excited. So we had a week off. So 199 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: we're every every two weeks bi weekly, and we will 200 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 2: have another meeting on October the ninth, and we're bringing 201 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 2: in Gave Garadini from Turning Point USA, the Action group. 202 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 2: He is not we're sort of the educational arm, but 203 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: he works for the UH Yeah, so he will. He's 204 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 2: a student, he's a university oft and student. He's also 205 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 2: the president of the Ohio College Republicans and for Ohio, 206 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: so he should be able to connect really well with 207 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 2: the students, and I really wanted somebody that could do 208 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: that this this for this next meeting because of him 209 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: being young and not being an old person like me, 210 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 2: and so I'm looking forward to it. We are meeting 211 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: a great Oak again on the ninth, and you know 212 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: we're still going to meet there. I'm just open to ideas, 213 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 2: is what I'll say. 214 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: For future venue, your your urban ideas about where this 215 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 1: like regularly. 216 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: Yep, we may stay there. We'll see. Yeah, and uh, 217 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: I will tell you this too. We're big enough. And 218 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 2: I think we've had a lot of people stop in 219 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 2: and check us out at that one at that our 220 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 2: for our first meeting, and some have reached out to me. 221 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 2: It's very hard to launch a chapter right now. I 222 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 2: don't think the online resources are is available. They're stressed 223 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 2: pretty senate TV USA right now, obviously. But there are 224 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 2: you know, folks out there who want to start chapters, 225 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 2: and we can do that hub since an a classical 226 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: is probably they're they're not launching a Turning Punch chapter. 227 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 2: That's not happening. They're more than welcome to send their 228 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 2: families can come and have their students join us. That 229 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: would be great. If they were ready to do that, 230 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: they would be doing it. They're not. 231 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: Okay, so I mean, because that's fine. I didn't realize 232 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: that you actually were able to use it the and 233 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: it seems like an ideal venue there, uh the campus there, 234 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: But it sounded to me like when I started out 235 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: that this, you didn't have a permanent site to meet. 236 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: So Dave or rather Dan Regnold is cool with you 237 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: guys meeting at the at three hundred Great Oaks Drive 238 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: on a regular basis.

That's really hard on our families. 241 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: So moving forward, we are evolving, right, So I'm listen 242 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: to ideas. That's it. 243 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: So well, the more people you get in the Turning 244 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: Point USA chapter, the more ideas you're going to be 245 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: surrounded by.
