1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: It's seven to five here fifty five kr CD talk station.

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday. Everybody's invited to listen for lunch at Ron's

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: Rus over the West Side. Even Jack Aidan, although I

4
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: don't know he's going to be there. Welcome Jack Adan.

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 1: I always enjoy our conversation to the You're beautiful wisdom

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: and insight. It's time for the big picture with Jack Addan.

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: Good to hear from me, my friend as always.

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: Oh, it's great to hear from you. I can't go

9
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 2: because Amesley and I tutor on Wednesdays, but thanks for

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 2: the invitation.

11
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 3: Good Can I ask for you tutor?

12
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: Jack? Yeah, we're over at Miller Ridge up here in Middletown.

13
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: It's an elementary school. Are we doing through our church?

14
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 3: Oh? That's awesome. I mean, I just I respond that

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 3: way to.

16
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: Work nights for so many years. I was able a

17
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: tutor for many years in Cincinnati public schools. I just

18
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: love it. The kids are amazing, and you have faith

19
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: in the future when you're with.

20
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: Them well and you teaching them. I mean, my reaction

21
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: is because what a blessing it will be to have

22
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: you in the front of the classroom. Jack, because you

23
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: are brilliant. You understand You're great a discussion and conversation,

24
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you probably use a little bit of

25
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: the Socratic method when you're teaching, which I really appreciate

26
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: that teaching methodology.

27
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: I do better in the front of the classroom than

28
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 2: I did when I was a kid. Sitting in the

29
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: classroom was a problem child, I believe. Anyway, let me

30
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: tell you about something that's maybe a problem, but I'll

31
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: tell you has been a blessing to see. Every week

32
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: I tried digging up something the audience might not know,

33
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 2: but this time it seems I'm the only person in

34
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 2: the country who did not know how much Taylor Sheridan

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: has changed not only television but maybe America's future for

36
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 2: the better. Only now I'm worried about whether he still

37
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 2: wants to Amesy and I don't watch much TV beyond news,

38
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: sports and reruns of The Big Bang Theory and of

39
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: course Seinfeld. But a couple of weeks ago, a friend

40
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: collored me and said, like Jerry's friend Banya, you gotta

41
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: watch this show. It's the best, Jack the best. He

42
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: was talking about Landman. Have you seen this, Brian Landman? No,

43
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 2: I have not, well you may want to after we talk. Now,

44
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 2: we signed up for a free trial subscription to Paramount

45
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: Plus and binged watch to all twenty episodes they've released

46
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 2: so far.

47
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 3: Is this a Billy Bob Thornton thing?

48
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: That's exactly my mom has been talking about that for

49
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: you gotta watch, you gotta watch it.

50
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 3: I don't have that service, and I'm not going to

51
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 3: sign it too.

52
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, watch it. Well, my wife and I actually

53
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: saw only about half the episodes. The rest of the

54
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: time we kept swiveling our heads looking at each other

55
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: because we could not believe you could see and hear

56
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: this much truth even on cable TV. Billy Bob Thornton,

57
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: the land man of the title showing why oil, Yes,

58
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: I said that dirty word oil and guess They're absolutely

59
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: essential to the world's well being and one of the

60
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: people who risk their lives bringing it to us. Ought

61
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: to be American heroes, heroes with feet of clay. Yes,

62
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: it's true, heroes who would be considered over sext even

63
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: by Hugh Hefner, Heroes who dropped more f bombs than

64
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: Democrats struggling to sound tough. F and Trump is Hitler anyway,

65
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 2: Incredible acting, direction and Most of all, incredible writing by

66
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 2: Landman's creator Taylor Sheridan. Most of you already knew him

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: from Yellowstone and its prequels. We only just discovered him

68
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 2: and then found that in another series that we have

69
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: to finish. Lioness. Taylor Sheretan shows that our mortal enemy,

70
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: communist China is the evil empire running the Mexican drug cartels,

71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 2: which is to say, running that entire country, because Mexico,

72
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 2: like Maduro's Venezuela, turned into nothing but a drug cartel

73
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: and even worse for America, a launchpad for tens of

74
00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: millions of undocumented invaders. Again, Amesley and I couldn't believe

75
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 2: what we were seeing. Think of it. Brian Jijianping's China,

76
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: with its nearly one and a half billion people, is

77
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: one of the biggest media markets on Earth. For years,

78
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 2: Disney and other media conglomerates have been bowing down to Beijing.

79
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: Just one example, China pressured Disney into changing Marvel's Doctor

80
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 2: Strange so that his mentor would not be a Tibetan

81
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: Buddhist because China wants to erase tibet. This cow tewing

82
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 2: to dictators is nothing new for Hollywood in the nineteen thirties,

83
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 2: with the exception of Charlie Chaplin, who belittled Adolf Hitler

84
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: and the Great Dictator, Nazis were pretty much off limits

85
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: in American films until we got into the war because

86
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 2: Germany was a huge market for Hollywood. By the way,

87
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 2: By the way, Brian, can you guess Defure's favorite.

88
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: Film, Oh, don't tell me, it's Charlie Chaplin's Dictator.

89
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: No, we didn't that one too much.

90
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 2: Keittler's favorite film was King Kong. Oh, that's rely Yeah,

91
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 2: just I guess he identified with Kik Kok.

92
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: That literally just popped up Turner Classic Movies. Yesterday was

93
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: one of the new films they rolled through the screens

94
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: that you can select from. That's funny timing wise, anyway,

95
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: go ahead, the.

96
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 2: Original is still the best.

97
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

98
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: More recently, about the only movie producer who stood up

99
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: to Red China has been No surprise, Tom Cruise. Beijing

100
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: objected to the Taiwanese flag patch on mavericks jacket. Red

101
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 2: China threatened to ban the film, so Tom and the

102
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 2: producer said, Yet, even without China, Top Gun, Mavericks earned

103
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 2: one point five billion dollars in counting however, Brian, and

104
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 2: with me, you know, there's always a however, because we

105
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 2: have to keep our eyes open even in good times.

106
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm worried about Taylor Sheridan's future. He's had a fight

107
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 2: with Paramount and signed a one billion dollar contract with

108
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 2: the media company. Is unlike Paramount, as Joe Biden is

109
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: unlike Donald Trump. Taylor Sheridan will be creating TV series

110
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 2: and films for NBC Universal. I can hear the hissing

111
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: from here now. In fairness, Sheridan has always pushed back

112
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 2: on claims that he's conservative. The writer says he strives

113
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: to depict all sides, and he does, But will NBC

114
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: Universal allow him to include a conservative side? When we

115
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 2: debate we win. The only leftists like the ones at NBC.

116
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 2: The only way they prevail is when they cover up

117
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: the truth, the way all the establishment media covered up Russiagate,

118
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's laptop, the truth about what's going on in Minnesota,

119
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 2: some Holli fraud, plus the funding of ice protesters. Look

120
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 2: at the Grammys, Oh look well, look at the reports

121
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: on the Grammys to see how much the truth about

122
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: ice gets reported to the average American. Will Taylor Sheridan

123
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: sell out our specialty here. History is teeming with sellouts

124
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: from Alcibiades and ancient Greece, who flipped back and forth

125
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: between Athens and Persia, to Tallyrant, the French statesman who

126
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: flipped from the Bourbon king who was beheaded, to the

127
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 2: French revolutionaries, to the Emperor Napoleon, and vitally flipping back

128
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 2: to the Bourbons. It's no sin to change your mind.

129
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 2: Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump started out as Democrats, but

130
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 2: as both of them explained, each in his own inimitable way,

131
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: I'll choose Reagan's I did not leave the Democrat Party.

132
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 2: The Democrat Party left me, and both Trump and Reagan

133
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: became Republicans because of the party now a big government,

134
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: big business socialism. They didn't want to be Democrats anymore.

135
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: What I would call fascism of the Mussolini stamp. That's

136
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: what the Democrats are, and that's why nationals partnering with

137
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: Red China love them. No Taiwan, these flags on their

138
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: jackets and closing. Let me stress, Brian, we don't know

139
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 2: what Tailor Sheridan will do. I'm hoping this quite essential

140
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 2: cowboy will stick to his guns because a Sheridan has

141
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 2: a CIA agent a lioness declaring in Season one, I

142
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 2: love my country. She didn't say I love the country

143
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 2: that I want to turn this into a socialist paradise.

144
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: She said, I love my country.

145
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: What do you say, partner, Well, I agree, I love

146
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: my country too, in spite of its wartz. And I

147
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: just know what happens to be, by comparison, the best

148
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: place on the planet to live, and we are all

149
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: uniquely blessed by God for having been born here. But

150
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: going back to your movie, and I know how much

151
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: of a movie buff you are, as am I I'm

152
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 1: certain that you are painful of a are also also

153
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: of speaking back, you know, like going after Nazis and

154
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: who the villain is in any given movie. This trend

155
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: that I've observed over my life. You know, you used

156
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: to have movies with very defined villains, Like there were

157
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: at one point a lot of villains in movies that

158
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: were terrorists, right, quite often Middle East fundamentalist terrorists. But

159
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: that was a legitimate concept. There were terrorists in the world,

160
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: and Hollywood chose to use them as perhaps the villain

161
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: in the movie. Some you know, like Spector Organization, which

162
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: is you know, whatever, they wanted to take over the world.

163
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: But villains in movies, especially over the past fifteen twenty

164
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: years now, all seem to be corporate executives or corrupt

165
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: law enforcement officers. It's all something you know, within the

166
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: system we have here, and they choose rather than focus

167
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: on some evil outside force legitimates. It may be they

168
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: always make up villains who happen to be well part

169
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: of the capitalist empire. If I could put it so loosely,

170
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: mean you've seen that trend or do you think that

171
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: I'm way off on that?

172
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 2: Oh? No, I think you're absolutely right, although you know,

173
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: a lot of the biggest supporters of the Democrats now

174
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: are the multi national generations that want to be able

175
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: to do business with places like China. But I also

176
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: see that you know again, what Landman shows us, the

177
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 2: vital part oil plays in our lives and where it

178
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: comes from, that's largely ignored by most other television. The

179
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 2: most glaring example today of what television news does not

180
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 2: show us what it ignores on TV. And the biggest

181
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 2: problem with TV news is not what it shows us,

182
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 2: it's what it ignores. The most glaring example is what's

183
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 2: going on right now in Iran. Whatever you think of

184
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 2: US involvement, the Mullas have cut off electricity, cut off

185
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 2: the internet, cut off social media in Iran, knowing that

186
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: American television, even the Fox News channel, will largely ignore

187
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 2: a black to out Iran and instead lead each of

188
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 2: its news programs every hour of every day, every week

189
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 2: with a place that does provide plenty of violent, noisy

190
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 2: video Minneapolis. Minneapolis is important, but other places, other stories

191
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: are important too, including stories that are hard to tell. Affordability, health, insurance, education.

192
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 2: All the polls show that's what voters in November are

193
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: really going to care about. This is a battle I

194
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 2: thought every day in local newsrooms. We cannot be prisoners

195
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 2: Brian of If it bleeds, it leads in local, much

196
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 2: less national news. We cannot wait for Taylor Sheridan to

197
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: tell these stories.

198
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 1: Well, if at least Taylor Sheridan is currently telling them.

199
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: As you explain it, you're right, though, I just struggle

200
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: to find a conservative message literally anywhere, so I think

201
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: obviously that's why you're highlighting it. Oh look, if you

202
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: look there, it is right there for auto behold. But

203
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: isn't it strange, Jack Avan in this America that you

204
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: and I have grown up in that you're raising this

205
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: as a point that this is even a thing. You've

206
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: got to point to Landman to show that, yes, there's

207
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: a lone conservative, normal, proper logical thinking program out there

208
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 1: that is in fact pointing out the benefits of oil.

209
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: I just I just am so troubled by that, Jack,

210
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: that we have moved that far that you can't even

211
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: expect to get some message like that.

212
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 3: Look one show and I are.

213
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 2: We're free marketeers. The way to change this is through

214
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: the market. Hollywood noticed when Tom Cruise earned one and

215
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: a half billion dollars with The Maverick, we started to

216
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 2: see some movies that were more like that. People are

217
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: going to be following Taylor Sheridan too. We have to

218
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 2: make sure we watch the things that affirm our values

219
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 2: and ignore the things. And this is very hard to

220
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 2: do in society, and especially very hard for our children

221
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 2: and grandchildren to do. We have to ignore the things

222
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: that tear down this country.

223
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was the Passion of the Christ, wasn't it

224
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: back in early two thousands when Mel Gibson produced that,

225
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 1: and it was a religious movie, it was a Christian movie,

226
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: and it made like gazillions of dollars. There was a

227
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: time in Hollywood when they support did the Christian message.

228
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean they churned out one movie after another that

229
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: had an underlying Christian theme to it. Why because the

230
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: American people loved going to movies with that message. And

231
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: when he released this thing on his own I guess,

232
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: funded by himself with his own budgets, certainly wasn't a

233
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: Hollywood back concept. People broke down the doors to go

234
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: see it, and he made millions and millions of dollars.

235
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean red Flag. Hey, Hollywood, you want to make money,

236
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: why not provide a movie like this that the people

237
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: obviously are clamoring for. I don't know they got that

238
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: message there, Jack.

239
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 2: I see a lot of religious movies now, certainly many

240
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: more than I did before in the Passion of the Christ,

241
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: mostly around the Easter, but still, and all kinds of

242
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 2: other movies that include religion at least in the background,

243
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 2: really in the foreground when you watch them. I'm thinking now,

244
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 2: because the Super Bowl is coming up, about the Kurt

245
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: Warner movie. I forget the title, but you know, his

246
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 2: religion was at the very heart of his being able

247
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: to turn around his football career. Those movies are out

248
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: there and they make a lot, a lot of money.

249
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: Okay, well more than I would know of, because I'll

250
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: be the first person who admit my general broad ignorance

251
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: regarding recent films because I can't remember the last time

252
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: I've been to a movie theater. Wait for it to

253
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: show up on cable. Jack Avinon always Wonderful. Appreciate the

254
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: note of optimism built into there. Let's hope things keep

255
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: moving more in that direction, because, of course, these clear

256
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: thinking messages need to get out, and that's one of

257
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: the reasons why I love you being on my show.

258
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: Clear thinking Messages, Great observations.

259
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:28,000
