21
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Show.

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: Thank you, good morning, Thanks for bringing me on to

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: talk about Turning Point. We're super excited. We have been

24
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 2: on once and we had our semester. We did our best,

25
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: we were brand new. We've ironed out some of the kinks.

26
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: But our first class is coming up on January the

27
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: twenty eight. So I want to say that we don't

28
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: have the web page for even for empower Used classes

29
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: for this coming spring semester or for Turning Point just

30
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: yet totally firmed up.

31
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 3: We're very very.

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: Close on both for both both organizations, for both pieces

33
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 2: of it, but so the web page will not be

34
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: as up to date. But I would say within the

35
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: next I don't know, ten days or so, we may

36
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: have something up there, especially for Turning Point and empower Use.

37
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: So kind of ironing things out, but we are on

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: our way here with Turning Point. January twenty eighth, the

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: big deal. I mean, I reach out to Joe to

40
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: see if he'll help me out and getting the work

41
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: it out, and he's always so generous. You're so generous

42
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: to have us on. We've got a new day for

43
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 2: Turning Point, a new time and a new location. So

44
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: three things that I think as we took a look

45
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 2: at how our last semester went, how we could better

46
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 2: serve our students and our families. Because we're our a

47
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: unique entity, right, We're not associated with the school. We're

48
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 2: actually considered an activism hub. We serve all high schoolers

49
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: in Greater Cincinnati. I'll take anybody. I'm not karting anybody.

50
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 2: We're not worried about addresses high schoolers. Mostly. We've even

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 2: got a few waish graders. And I know we're kind

52
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 2: of sneaking in. That's completely fine, It's worked out fine.

53
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 3: I just want to reach students and be that.

54
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 2: Place where they can learn about conservative values, about free markets,

55
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: about free speech, and be in a comfortable place. I

56
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: hate to use the term safe space, but a place

57
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: where they can kind of speak the way they want

58
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 2: to speak, right, and you know, we can say, yeah,

59
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: the police are good that using gender pronouns. And these

60
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: these are kids who've never lived like my son, he's sixteen.

61
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: He doesn't even remember a time when we.

62
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 3: Didn't talk like that.

63
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: And that's horrific because it wasn't that long ago. We

64
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: didn't have to do this right, So we can do

65
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 2: that in our group here, and it's a place where

66
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: we can be open well.

67
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: And I'm certain your chapter is going to grow, and

68
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: we'll get the details on the daytime and location changes

69
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: here in a minute and find out what's going on

70
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: in the twenty eighth. But I guess this is one

71
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: of those instances where you know, the Lord really does

72
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: work in mysterious ways. Charlie Kirk outspoken. He'd been doing

73
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: this for years. I mean, he spoke truth, the power,

74
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: he spoke his mind. He sprung from his religious faith,

75
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: but he held these American values and ideals dear to

76
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: his heart. He was wonderful at getting the message out

77
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: about conservative values. And then his life was taken from him.

78
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: But you know, the lemonade that was made from the

79
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: lemons of that. But the beautiful, you know, the mysterious reality,

80
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: the miracle that came from that is Turning Point USA

81
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: just blew up in terms of its people recognizing her

82
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: for what it is. People learn for the first time

83
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: what Turning Point USA is all about. And then next thing,

84
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: you know, all these new chapters started forming across the

85
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: whole United States. I mean, you know, maybe a martyr

86
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: to the cause, perhaps, but what a wonderful reality that

87
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,239
Speaker 1: came out from that tragic, horrific.

88
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 2: Death for sure, for sure, and thank God for him.

89
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 2: And when you watch his videos, he was phenomenal at

90
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: what he did, particularly in these more recent years, which

91
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: I did notice as it was happening. I did notice that,

92
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 2: And I want to make a point of that. With

93
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 2: these kids that we're working with, I should say, are

94
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: students say young adults? Really they all struggle. We all struggled.

95
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 2: There was a time when if you use the term

96
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 2: GOP with somebody, you've already lost them because they don't

97
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: know all the jargon and the terminology.

98
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 3: I grew up with it.

99
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 2: I was forced to listen to Rush Limbo from when

100
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: I was like ten years old on.

101
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 3: I get it, but not everybody does, right, So.

102
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk understood it. Was a patriot always probably, but

103
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: he also had to polish himself and learn and read

104
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 2: and educate himself. I think he did the coursework at Hillsdale,

105
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 2: for example, to learn the things he needed to learn.

106
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: And he knew how to debate and he practiced it.

107
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 2: And it takes hard work to be a Charlie Kirk.

108
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 2: So I'd love to say we're turning out Charlie Kirk's

109
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: out of empower Use turning point chapter. But we can

110
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: certainly give them the tools so that when they go

111
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 2: off to college, even if they grew up in conservative household.

112
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 2: So it's the choir, right, These kids are part of

113
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: the choir.

114
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 3: They're us right.

115
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: But I know a couple of conservative families who sent

116
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 2: kids off to a college, a big one. I won't

117
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: say which of the big colleges.

118
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 3: It was that both.

119
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: Kids went there, came back, you know, unrecognizable, and in

120
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: debated their parents and badgerism for voting for Donald Trump.

121
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 2: They knew that their parents, They felt like their parents

122
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: were part of it, and how could they do that?

123
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: They were pramewashed. And we cannot let our young people.

124
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: They're not going to get at their schools. They've got

125
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 2: to get it somewhere. They've got to get through somewhere,

126
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: and that's what we're trying to do.

127
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I'm glad you brought up that the

128
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: component of you know, some young I've had a year

129
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: of college. I know what I'm talking about. You don't

130
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, mom, dad, That badgering that

131
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: goes on, Well, Charlie Kirk took that kind of criticism

132
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: and that kind of badgering on headlong. Every opportunity that

133
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: was given to him where someone would come up and

134
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 1: criticize him and tell him he was wrong, he grabbed

135
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: a bull by the horns and met that statement, that argument,

136
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: if it was even an argument, that attack and criticism

137
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: with facts, with logic, with reason. And I would expect

138
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: any parent out there to be able to do that.

139
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: If their their nut job left winger came back from

140
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: a doctrination camp at college, you could take them on

141
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: if they start down that evil orange man road with

142
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: the knowledge and the skills that you all already have

143
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: or do more. Adults need to take the bull by

144
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: the horns, learn like Charlie Kirk did, and embrace the

145
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: idea of rejecting that and go at them full bore

146
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: with facts and information.

147
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

148
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: And Charlie Kirk taught us that he was coming from

149
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: a place of love. Yeah. And I don't know if

150
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: the Left thought that because they felt so bad they

151
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: took it personally.

152
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: It's not personal, it was it was a reality.

153
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: It was you know, his pro life chances was he

154
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: was unbelievably talented at being an apologist for life and

155
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: American values, you know, but he did it from a

156
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 2: place of love. He wasn't badgering, he wasn't raising his voice,

157
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: he wasn't being mean, and he probably was spit on

158
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 2: more time than he could count and then paid the

159
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 2: ultimate price. Yeah, he's a phenomenal example of how to

160
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 2: push back against this craziness.

161
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 3: And I was.

162
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: Gonna say, I think young people could benefit from this

163
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: beyond the political realm. The idea of being able to

164
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: confidently engage in debate. That's a skill that lots and

165
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: lots of young people lack. It's a sorely missing skill

166
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: for young people. They don't want to engage. You want

167
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: to hide isolated, curl up in a ball, or just

168
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: screen expletives at people, which is not debate and exchange

169
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: of ideas. It's just name calling. But that's where we

170
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: are at a fall positions. So I would think, yes,

171
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: this will this turning point USA empower you. Chapter will

172
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: encourage them and help them to engage in thoughtful discussion

173
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: along politics. But also you can extrapolate a life skill

174
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: that they'll bring with it. They'll take from these these

175
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: courses in this chapter's work and use it in other

176
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: areas of their life.

177
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, for sure, yes.

178
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: And it's been a joy to have empower use resources

179
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 2: to do that. Oh yeah, and Dan, and it's been

180
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: very helpful.

181
00:08:58,320 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: Shout out to Dang. Yeah.

182
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: Miss.

183
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 2: And you know, if these kids aren't going to get

184
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: this at their schools, then they have to be able

185
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: to get it somewhere.

186
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 3: And if we don't have our young people.

187
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 4: And we don't bring them along in in in patriotism

188
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 4: and in reason and like touching grass, then if they're

189
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 4: not going to do it in the schools, which they're

190
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 4: clearly not and I don't see that improving anytime soon,

191
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 4: then we can be out there for these students and

192
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: and can.

193
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: Help them meet you know, they can put them together

194
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: so they meet each other. That was one of banded

195
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: goals with so that students, you know, like minded students

196
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 2: could meet each other in a in a place like

197
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 2: this where they had something in common and they could

198
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 2: speak their minds without having to worry and in the

199
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 2: process our turning point chapter were because of the nature

200
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: of it kind of looks a little like empower you

201
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 2: where we bring in speakers and some of the adults

202
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 2: have stayed the parents, So that's another thing.

203
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 3: The parents have stuck around.

204
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 2: And I'm not going to tell parents they have to

205
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: go away and sit in the car, but I will

206
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 2: say that the students really do like to have some

207
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 2: autonomy in this in it and when they're meeting with us,

208
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 2: so we want them to talk, we want them to

209
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 2: have discussions, We want them to be comfortable, and if

210
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: that means we put the parents in kind of the

211
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 2: back room, then that's what we do. But they've also

212
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 2: been able to listen to Rep. Gross was then talking

213
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: to us, and I asked the parents to stay and

214
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 2: they really enjoyed that. So there is some family, you know,

215
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: togetherness at times with our meeting.

216
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 3: So it's good for everybody, really.

217
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 2: All right.

218
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 1: I think it's an important question to ask. Now, Charlie

219
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 1: Kirk's message sprung and was born of his profound faith

220
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: in God, I mean a devout Christian, and of course

221
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: some of his messages sprung from that. And you can't

222
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: extrapolate a conservative political message, you know, based upon your

223
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: religious foundations. Is turning point usas chapter through empower you America?

224
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: Would you call it a religious organization? Will you be

225
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: teaching about you know, like things biblic or are you

226
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: just going to let the political message prevail or is

227
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: it a combination?

228
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 3: That good question.

229
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, that's a good question because faith is

230
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: definitely part of that message. And I will say this

231
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 2: Turning Point has a curriculum for the high schoolers that

232
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 2: they offer up, and it doesn't quite fit for what

233
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 2: we're doing because we're not in the school and like

234
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 2: parents and students both have to drive, you know, sometimes

235
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 2: across town to get to our meeting. So we do

236
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: it a little different.

237
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 3: It packs a different kind of punch, if that makes

238
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 3: any sense.

239
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: So the curriculum that you might do after when you

240
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: stay after school with you know, on every Tuesday, or

241
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,719
Speaker 2: whatever they do with the high schools, probably not enough

242
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: high schools even.

243
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 3: Have a chapter. From the looks of the curriculum that's offered.

244
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 2: It's fine for that setting, but for ours, I needed

245
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 2: to have it a little more heavy heading. And as

246
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,359
Speaker 2: far as faith, it will always bring faith into the conversation.

247
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 2: We had Donna Murphy from Heaven Dane came in last semester,

248
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 2: late last semester, right before Chris and talked about the

249
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: pro life message. And there's plenty of faith in that.

250
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 2: I've got a gentleman that I'm very good friends with,

251
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 2: John Kersey is his name, mas from Cleveland, and he's

252
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 2: a professor. He's coming down to talk to Turning Point

253
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 2: on the March eighteenth, actually, and he's a very faithful man.

254
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 3: And he's a.

255
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 2: Journalist and a professor and a conservative and he's just

256
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 2: phenomenal and he's a great speaker. And I asked him

257
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 2: to join us in Turning Point.

258
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 3: And I don't know what message he's going to.

259
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: Give yet, but you can be you can bet it

260
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 2: will be peppered with a message you know, of faith.

261
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 2: So and he could talk on any number of things,

262
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 2: but we'll always be bringing faith into the.

263
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 3: Conversation for sure. For sure.

264
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, by the way, he'll be and empower you

265
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 2: the following day talking about Jesse Yellens.

266
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: The one time straight. That's good. I'm looking forward to seeing.

267
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: The semester bring him down. We're going to use them.

268
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: Uh my guess right now with this segment, Diana tell

269
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 1: Us from the Turning Point chapter via empower Youamerica dot org.

270
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: You mentioned early on daytime location. Sounded to me like

271
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: there's going to be a shift in when these were

272
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 1: going to take place. Not the where though. Is it

273
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 1: still at empower You Studios at Scarlet Oaks Campus, three

274
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: hundred Great Oaks Drive. Are you moving venue?

275
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: Not there yet? That is still empower You, that's still

276
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 2: empower You meeting space.

277
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 3: For sure.

278
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 2: We pivoted a little differently. We did new day, new time,

279
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: and new location. So I'm super excited about this. So

280
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 2: already Cafe on Reading Road and Sharonville is hosting us.

281
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 2: We generally will be meeting there on Wednesdays. I want

282
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 2: to say it's every other Wednesday, but we may have

283
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 2: some hops in the calendar where we're not quite following exactly,

284
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 2: but we are going to be meeting there on the

285
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 2: twenty eighth.

286
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 3: It's upstairs.

287
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 2: She's got an upstairs space there was very excited to

288
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 2: have us. Oh god, it's external like she's not open,

289
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: but it's also we'll make our way up there, and

290
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 2: there's a really nice, really nice space that's comfortable with couches.

291
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 2: It's very homeye and we'll be a great place for

292
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: the students to But we know what side, you know

293
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 2: what we need, and we didn't need that big studio

294
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 2: space that they.

295
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 3: Have over at Grade Oak.

296
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: So this is a more comfortable way of doing it,

297
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 2: I think, And there isn't an adult space that they

298
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: could sit. The adults could sit down the hall in

299
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 2: a smaller room kind of keep an eye on things

300
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 2: if they want to. But you know a lot of

301
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: them have driven around town to get to this meeting,

302
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: so there is room for them as well. So the

303
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: meeting will start at six point thirty, which is another

304
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 2: improvement over over what we were doing with Empower you

305
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 2: we were kind of piggybacking on the space we already had. Yeah,

306
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: so this is going to be better. And then we

307
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: did all for Wednesday so that we could take advantage

308
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 2: of you know, if I ever needed Dan to come

309
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: over to work with us at Turning Point, Dan wouldn't

310
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 2: be the on Thursday, you know, on a Thursday, on

311
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 2: the same night. It just it just made it better.

312
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 2: We could get we could get help in different ways

313
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 2: by changing the day of the week.

314
