1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: Okay, let me go right back to Ellie and Wooster.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Just before I do, I want to read this from

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: a very good friend of mine. I know him. We

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: go back many many years, big Trumps supporter, really a

5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 1: smart conservative and just a great patriot and a war veteran.

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 1: By the way, I love the guy, Jeff. About today's

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: generation of parents, my mother says, quote, the spoiled are

8
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: doing the spoiling unquote. You know, I think there's a

9
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: lot to that. I think I'm not saying every parent,

10
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: young parent is spoiled. No, but when you look at

11
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: that incident I just spoke about with my you know,

12
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: my son and what he saw, I bet you that

13
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: woman was probably spoiled by her parents and probably had

14
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: a potty, dirty mouth when she spoke to her parents.

15
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: So now that her daughter is telling her to go

16
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: f her self, and you know, before the exercise class

17
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 1: in front of everybody, and she's laughing and she thinks

18
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: it's funny, I'm sure the apple doesn't fall too far

19
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: from the tree. I mean, I really, honestly, I wouldn't

20
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: be surprised, but I think that is part of the problem.

21
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: The spoiled are doing. Now the spoiling. I mean, am

22
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: I wrong? Six one seven two six six sixty eight

23
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: sixty eight. Okay, Ellie, you are making a very fascinating point.

24
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: Anti Christianity is rampant, The radical left is rampant. These

25
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: are left wing governments that are now pushing, for the

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: most part, this ban on a social media use by

27
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: children under the age of sixteen. And their goal is

28
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: not to help the children. We know that they don't

29
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: care about kids. They have a larger, more evil, more

30
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: nefarious goal. Please pick up where you left off.

31
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 2: There's good and there's bad apps out there. And when

32
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 2: we were kids, we would talk don't talk to strangers. Okay,

33
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 2: you got to apply the same thing to the cell

34
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: phone stuff. Don't talk to strangers. It's very simple, you know,

35
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 2: be suspicious of blah blah blah. Well, you know, like,

36
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: like I say, there's a lot of good apps out

37
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: there helping kids worldwide, like for example, Charlie Kirk. You know,

38
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: turning point, I think that it's probably they're not protecting

39
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 2: the kids from evil, they're protecting them from the good,

40
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: the truthful apps out there that are actually helping kids.

41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: Because Charlie Kirk got really popular and I think that

42
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 2: it scared the governments. And we know how Australia and

43
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: Canada treated people during COVID. They treated them like criminals,

44
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: and they did it here too. You know, you don't

45
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 2: know what I mean. Like even doctors, some old gold

46
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: drown in prison trying to warn about the mRNA shots.

47
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: They use this to stop the truth. It's a foot

48
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: in the door. It's a trojan horse. So be careful

49
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 2: what you wish for. It's a trojan horse. You know.

50
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 2: Are they going to protect the kids from apps that

51
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 2: confuse children as to whether they're male or female so

52
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: that they can pump them full of drugs and confuse

53
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 2: them even more. Are they going to stop those ALFs? No,

54
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 2: they're not going to stop it, you know what I mean.

55
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: So it's like, remember what happened during COVID. Remember what

56
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: happened two pastors getting shackle thrown in prison, innocent people.

57
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: This is just a trojan horse.

58
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm with you. I'm with you all the way. Ellie. Look,

59
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: I'll never forget COVID till the day I die. Remember

60
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: it was remember what they said two weeks, just the weeks,

61
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: Remember that to flatten the curve. Everybody's forgotten that. Now

62
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: two weeks, it's just two weeks, and then we're flatten

63
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: the curve. We're going to stop the spread of COVID

64
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: and then everything will go back to normal. They lie

65
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: to us, and we know now by the way they

66
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: deliberately lied to us. So no, look, here's what's going

67
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 1: to happen already. This is what they're planning in Australia, Denmark, Norway,

68
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: the European Union, Canada, and this is what they're talking

69
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: about in Congress. Okay, you're not allowed. You're fifteen and under.

70
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: You can't have a social media account. Okay, if you

71
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: had one, it gets deactivated. Now let's say you don't

72
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: have one. You got to get one. Well, now you

73
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: have to register. You have to register with the government.

74
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: That's the plan. Now they start you at sixteen. You

75
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 1: turn sixteen, okay, Oh, you want to be on Facebook

76

Speaker 1: and TikTok and YouTube and Instagram and you know everything

77
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: X and whatever. Okay, no problem, name John Smith really,

Speaker 1: well whatever. They get all of your personal information and

81
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: then they're gonna give you a digital ID number and

82
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: from that point forward they can track your digital ID.

83
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 1: Do you go to Charlie, Do you go to Turning

84
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: Point USA? Really? Do you go to conservative websites? Really?

85
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: Hold on? You mean you go to w rko dot

Speaker 1: little Christian here. They can then monitor and track you.

90
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: Now their ultimate goal and they've said this. The European

91
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: Union has set it. The globalists have said it, the

92
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: Democrats have said it. They want to create a universal

93
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: digital ID meaning for everybody, for everybody, and they want

94
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: us off paper. In other words, everybody say, you get

95
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: your information not from a newspaper, you know, physically, which

96
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: I get in the morning all the time. Six one

97
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number? Okay?

98
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: Should we ban social media for teens, tweens, children, whatever

99
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: you want to call them, those under the age of sixteen?

100
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: Australia says yes, Denmark, Norway, Canada, frankly much of the

101
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: European Union now they want to do it by next year.

102
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: And both republic Plans and Democrats. There is now a

103
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: coalition forming saying they want it here in the United

104
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: States as well. Agree, disagree? Dan in Vermont, Thanks for

105
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: holding Dan and welcome.

106
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. So just to reinforce your point, buddy of mine

107
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 3: is a county sheriff here in Vermont, but he's also

108
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 3: the resource officer for a high school and a couple

109
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 3: of grade schools. The district just changed to a no

110
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 3: phones during school hours and his calls are down seventy percent.

111
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: I got to get back to work, but just wanted

112
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: to make that point to you that it is working,

113
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 3: even if it's not gone through Congress yet.

114
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: Dan, would you prefer that we do it like this

115
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: on a school by school or school district basis, then

116
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: rather have Congress pass a blanket van.

117
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 3: Oh, blanket ban because I kind of I brought kids up,

118
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 3: you know, true before pre cell phones and then after media,

119
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 3: and I saw a big change, especially when they went

120
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 3: into middle school. When they went into middle school, they

121
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 3: I really saw a change in their behavior as far

122
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 3: as like you were talking about back talk to their

123
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: parents and and things like that. That disrespect, you know, bloomed.

124
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: So you be in favor of a band.

125
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: Dan, absolutely, one hundred percent, not one percent of a

126
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: thousand percent.

127
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: Interesting. Interesting, Dan, thank you very much for that call.

128
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.

129
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 1: Victor in Maryland, thanks for holding Victor, and welcome.

130
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 4: Good morning America's talk show host.

131
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: Thank you, Victor, Buddy. I gotta ask you, uh, what

132
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 1: do you make of this? Does Victor in Maryland support

133
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: a band? Or do you think it's a violin a

134
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: free expression and freedom of speech?

135
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 4: I would like to see a band now. I want

136
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 4: to tell you a little bit about myself. When I

137
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 4: was ten years old, my father gave me a radio

138
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 4: for Christmas, and being blind while I had a little

139
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 4: bit of vision back then, but I stumbled across Weei

140
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: and I heard an episode of gun Smoke, and I

141
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 4: was fascinated, and I used my imagination what Marshall Dillon

142
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 4: was doing running down Front Street to catch so and so,

143
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 4: and then I would listen to another show, yours, truly,

144
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 4: Johnny Dollar. All these shows were on at the time

145
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: when I was ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, and I had

146
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 4: Weei from like three o'clock up to seven o'clock listening

147
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 4: to these shows. The problem is these kids today have

148
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 4: absolutely no imagination. And I was at a neighbor's house

149
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 4: and I was talking to the mother and the thirteen

150
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 4: year old no, the ten year old kid was playing

151
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 4: with his phone or something, and I was telling her

152
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 4: what it was like when I was his age and

153
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 4: how I used my imagination. I wondered, you know, I

154
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 4: would be listening to The Lone Ranger and I can

155
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 4: imagine a Lone Ranger and Tonto of capturing the bad guy.

156
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 4: And then they had children's radio shows that I would

157
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 4: stumble on. You can go on various websites like Tune

158
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 4: in Yesterday or Radio once More, and you can hear

159
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 4: these old radio shows. I think it would do the

160
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 4: kids a lot good to just sit there and listen

161
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 4: to the radio shows and imagine what's going on.

162
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: You know, Victor, I think if we even tried that,

163
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: they are incapable of doing it. Their brains have been

164
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: so sad. I mean, by the way, I so agree

165
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: with you, and I'm going to get to that in

166
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: a second, but just to answer your direct point, it

167
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: shows to me how much we've gone as a society,

168
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: how much we've traveled, that their brains now are so

169
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: saturated with visual images, whether it's TV NonStop, movies, NonStop,

170
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: screen time, NonStop, computers, laptops, iPhones, iPads, you name it,

171
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: just NonStop, NonStop, NonStop. That for them to just listen

172
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: to something, and I don't mean music. I'm talking about

173
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: like a story being told, or a radio drama or

174
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: a mystery crime thriller or whatever as you used to

175
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: have in the forties and fifties, which which were huge

176
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: on radio, huge. They would they'd be fidgeting, they'd be

177
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: moving in their chairs there. They would lose their concentration

178
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: within five minutes. Really, I think within five minutes they'd

179
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: say I can't, I can't do this. It's again, it's

180
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: like the sign of an addict. It's like taking away

181
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: their phones. You take away their phones and they start shaking. Really,

182
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: you could tell they they start shaking. I know because

183
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: I saw it on my kids before. And that's why

184
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: when Grayson I said no, no, no, no, no no no,

185
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna really limit now the phone use. We're gonna

186
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: limit how much time they're on video games or social media,

187
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: because we could tell they're like addicts. They get grumpy,

188
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: they're not themselves we began to notice they were back talking.

189
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: We began to notice if you take the phones away,

190
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: they're they're jittery, they're they're just they're not the same.

191
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what do you guys addicts? It's like

192
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: what you can't play outside? You know Ashton loves to fish. Well,

193
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: you can't because I always will drive them. I go, look,

194
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: that'll drive you. I go, I'll drive you. I'll drive

195
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: you to the lake. No problem, you can. You know,

196
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: I have your rod and throw the line in. You

197
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 1: could be there all afternoon. No, no, he wants that phone.

198
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: He wants that phone. And that's when Grace and I

199
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: said nope, nope. So they went cold turkey for a while,

200
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: basically like a detox. They had to be detos. And

201
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: now it's look, if I had things my way, and

202
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 1: if Grace had things her way, it would be no phone.

203
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: But you know, the kids are the kids, and they

204
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: got friends and peer pressure, and so we give him

205
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: an hour. But you know, firstly, I think it's better nothing.

206
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: But anyway, they have their phones, and they have their

207
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: social media or whatever for one hour. Now look to

208
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: your point, Victor, this is one of my few guilty pleasures.

209
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: I have serious exam radio. There's this channel there called

210
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: one forty eight and it's from the golden oldies. And

211
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: what I mean by that is you mentioned Johnny Dollar,

212
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: and there's others. These are shows that were huge in

213
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: the forties and fifties, where it's a crime drama or

214
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: a mystery thriller. I love them. I love them especially

215
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: on the weekends. I'll put them on for a couple

216
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: of hours and listen to a couple of shows back

217
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: to back. You're right, you use your imagination. The stories

218
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: are so well written. The acting. I know it's just

219
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: voice acting, but the voice acting is phenomenal. And I

220
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: remember just thinking, boy, the quality of entertainment used to

221
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: be so much better. And you're right, you have to

222
00:14:55,360 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: use your imagination. And I don't know. It's creative, it's stimulus,

223
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: it's fun, it's engaging, it's interesting. You're never going to

224
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: see that again, sadly, Victor, You're never going to see

225
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: that again. But I agree with you. Golden Age of radio. Victor,

226
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: thank you so much for that call. Six one seven

227
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Chris in Plymouth,

228
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: Thanks for holding Chris, and welcome.

229
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 5: Hey, Jeff. Before I make my point, I just want

230
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 5: to say, yeah, parentings a lot of work. I get

231
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 5: three daughters, and what your son's doing. What I see

232
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 5: at the gym, it's not just the kids, it's adults.

233
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 5: They weren't even between their workouts. They're on the phone.

234
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 5: We have a generation, the generation from when the smartphone started.

235
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 5: It's inevitable now they're program not everyone, but parenting's a

236
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 5: lot of work. When my kids go out into society,

237
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 5: I get nothing but praise because hard work's done at

238
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 5: home and the times at home. But that's where the

239
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 5: work is.

240
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 6: What about what about education?

241
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 5: You had another caller, You know the phones in school.

242
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 2: I'm for that.

243
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 5: Keep it, keep it out of the school during the

244
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 5: school days and then talk and then get your phones back.

245
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 5: We can't even stop vaping in school. We can't stop

246
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 5: smoking in school.

247
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 6: What were we gonna do?

248
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 5: We're gonna stop this. I'm with you one hundred percent.

249
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 5: This is the trojan horse government control to do anything

250
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 5: in this world is take is worked. And we have

251
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 5: the last country of freedom that wants to be taken

252
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 5: away from because all these other countries don't have it.

253
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: Chris, can you do me a big favor. I want

254
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: to ask you a question about you and how you

255
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: raised your three girls. Chris, please hang on, I'm up

256
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: against a heartbreak. Six one seven two six six sixty

257
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, let's go right

258
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: back to Chris in Plymouth. Chris, I've got to ask you,

259
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: as someone who's done a very good job and really

260
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: God bless you raising your three daughters, because I know

261
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 1: it's there's so many temptations, there's so many pressures, especially

262
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: now on a family, on parents, on a father, on

263
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: mother's it's very very hard. You said something about you've

264
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: noticed it as well with your not with your daughters

265
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: to you, but when you take your daughters somewhere that

266
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: her peers or you know, people that she knows, or

267
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: that your daughters know, that her friends, colleagues, whatever, that

268
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: your daughter's friends or colleagues will be bad mouthing their

269
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: parents or their teachers or people in authority, that there's

270
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: complete and utter disrespect now, and that so much of

271
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: this is coming from social media. Have you ever seen

272
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: anything with your daughters in terms of them telling you

273
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: or you witnessing them, say at a ballet class or

274
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: a swim class or a soccer class or whatever you

275
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: have activities you take them to where their peers or

276
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: friends are telling their parents to f off, or telling

277
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:14,239
Speaker 1: the coach to f off, or telling some you know,

278
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: elder person or an adult to just go blank themselves,

279
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: and they think it's funny. Have you ever seen anything

280
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: that bad?

281
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 5: I haven't seen it to that extreme, but close to it.

282
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 5: Maybe not you know, using cusswords or whatever, but disrespect

283
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 5: to their parents and parents not doing anything. Like if

284
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 5: that was my kid in public nowadays, I would have

285
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 5: just grabbed my daughter and moved on. It's like we

286
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 5: have an enabling society. Now you have to put the

287
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 5: work and be be present with the kids. And I

288
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 5: think that the schools can. The schools can do that,

289
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 5: but instead we do the opposite. Let's let's educate with

290
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 5: the biggest education country in the world. You have to

291
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 5: pay attention to happen after sixteen. So your son, your son,

292
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 5: my daughter's sixteen now now now it's up to them

293
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 5: to make decisions on this. So can they get reinfected?

294
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 5: They now it's their responsibility. It's not going anywhere. We

295
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 5: had cassette tapes. Whe did we put a warning label

296
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 5: on cassette tapes and CD. What did that do? I

297
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 5: used to DJA school dance? Is that at elementary schools?

298
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: And all this?

299
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 5: And hey, you're playing the swear words? No I'm not.

300
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 5: I have every all these all these songs are edited.

301
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 5: They know the swear words. There's no getting around this.

302
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 5: It's about putting the work in. And I think this

303
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 5: has created us to be a lazy society even more

304
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 5: and more and more. And that's where I don't know,

305
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 5: the trojan horsor control comes in. You have to put

306
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 5: the work in. And there's a lot of people that

307
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 5: have a hard time. We all come from different socioeconomic levels.

308
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 5: How much work can parents put in versus other parents

309
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 5: put in? And now we're going to have the government

310
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 5: magic we hold everyone's hands. You know, you got to

311
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 5: put the work in. And back to what I'm saying,

312
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,959
Speaker 5: freedom comes with responsibility. The only country that has all

313
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 5: the freedom in the world.

314
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: Amen. Amen, Chris Again, I'm sorry. I don't mean to

315
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 1: harbor to harbor on this point to go on about it,

316
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: to harp on it, but I'm just curious. Do the

317
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: parents laugh like the way the way Ashton described it

318
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: to me? The daughter says, f you and whatever, go

319
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: after yourself or whatever like ha. Do they laugh when

320
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 1: their children are being openly disrespectful to them? Are they sheepish?

321
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: Are they a little embarrassed but they just don't do anything,

322
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: or do they just shrug it off like hey, this

323
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: is just no big deal. What's generally the response of

324
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: parents that you've observed when their children are misbehaving and

325
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: insulting them and in a.

326
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 5: Way out because they don't know how to do it.

327
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 5: If that was my wife or myself, that would have

328
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 5: been a spot of grabbing the arm, let's go, we'rer

329
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 5: here and wants to have a conversation in the car

330
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 5: and back home. That will never happen again because obviously, yeah,

331
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 5: back in the day, you could have smacked a kid

332
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 5: in the back of the head and made an example

333
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 5: in front of them. But pulling them out of the

334
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 5: situation right away, that sets an example. Wow, that kid's

335
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 5: in trouble. But these parents just stand there. In case,

336
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 5: you're a parent, you don't get disrespected by the children.

337
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 5: But it's almost like the children are getting powerful now

338
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 5: or you know, in these other freaking you know, you know,

339
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 5: Marx to them and all that empower the children. We'll

340
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 5: just go get the police and get you parents. You know,

341
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 5: that's what we don't want, the parents for the parents.

342
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: Oh you nailed it. Oh you so nailed it, Chris,

343
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 1: my brother from another mother, Chris, thank you very very

344
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: much for that call. Grace would have grabbed them by

345
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: the arm, maybe even by the ear. I'm not kidding

346
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: like there's something like that. They would never do it,

347
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: but let's just say they did do it, you know,

348
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 1: or and I would be what did you say, either

349
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: come here, young man, or come here, come here, young

350
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: lady out We're going to the car right now. Move

351
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: your ass, And of course all the kids would be like, whoo,

352
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 1: they're going to be in trouble. You know, you have

353
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: to you have to six one seven two six six

354
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: sixty eight sixty eight. Steve in Houston, Texas. Thanks for

355
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: holding Steve, and welcome.

356
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 6: Good morning, Jeff. Are you today?

357
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 1: Good? How are you, Steve?

358
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 6: I'm good. Uh So, something happened about two weeks ago,

359
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 6: and I'll get to that in just a minute. But

360
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 6: we have a huge online predators in pedophilia, and I

361
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 6: want to give you like a little backstory on my

362
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 6: stepdaughter Uh, so, I've first met her two years ago.

363
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 6: She was twelve. She was overly developed, she looked like

364
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 6: she was eighteen, and she's a beautiful girl. Well she's

365
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 6: fourteen now. But for the first year that I knew her,

366
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 6: she lived with me and her mom and every week

367
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 6: running away drinking, doing drugs, having sex, and there was

368
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 6: nothing we could do. We tried everything short of chaining

369
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 6: her to the bed, and nothing worked. She just continued

370
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 6: and continued. So we had her shipped off to go

371
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 6: live with her dad. He lives out in the middle

372
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 6: of nowhere, four hours from Houston. And for a good year,

373
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 6: she did a lot better. Her grades got better. You know,

374
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 6: she was behaving. And about two weeks ago, to see

375
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 6: we had caught her online talking to grown men on

376
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 6: all these social media things. We had taken her devices

377
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 6: and nothing worked. Nothing worked. She would always find a

378
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 6: device or use their friends, and so nothing worked. Well,

379
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 6: two weeks ago, a friend of hers had stolen her

380
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 6: mother's car and picked up my stepdaughter. Well, they drove

381
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 6: four hours back to Houston and they the girl got caught,

382
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 6: They got pulled over, the girl got caught, taken to jail.

383
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 6: She was sixteen. Well, they just let my stepdaughter go,

384
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 6: even though you know she'd been reported as a runaway. Well,

385
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 6: she was still out running the streets. And the next

386
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 6: night she hooked up with the guy that she had

387
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 6: met online. The guy was twenty five, he was married,

388
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,439
Speaker 6: His wife had an order of protection against him. He

389
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 6: had multiple felony warrants out for his arrest. Well, that

390
00:24:52,840 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 6: night he beat and raped my stepdaughter and just out

391
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 6: of pure look, a couple of minutes after he got

392
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 6: up and left, a cop happened to be driving by

393
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 6: and was shining his spotlight in this park, just kind

394
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:17,479
Speaker 6: of checking and seeing her laying there. Well, they got

395
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 6: his information really quick, and within fifteen minutes they caught

396
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 6: the guy walking down the street. So he's in jail,

397
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 6: no bond, he's not getting out. But I warned her,

398
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 6: and I warned her, everybody warned her. She would not listen.

399
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 6: There was nothing we could do to control this kid.

400
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 6: So I am as anti government as anybody else. And

401
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 6: two weeks ago I said, oh no, no, you cannot

402
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 6: do this. But with what just happened, I am on

403
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 6: the fence.

404
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: It is.

405
00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 6: I get it, government control, government overreach, but sometimes either

406
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 6: the parents just don't care or there's absolutely nothing they

407
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 6: can do. These kids are out of control. So I

408
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 6: do kind of agree with this happening.

409
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: I want to ask you, first of all, if you

410
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: don't mind me asking, how is your stepdaughter doing?

411
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 6: She is doing better? Yeah, And if.

412
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: I'm getting too personal, please tell me. I promise I

413
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: won't be offended. Is she living with her father or

414
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 1: is she living with you and her birth mom?

415
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 6: She is back with her father again.

416
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: She's back with her father, yep? Okay, Steve, are you

417
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: saying that essentially a lot of her troubles or problems

418
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 1: began because of that phone and the access that she

419
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: had to social media, that it just it opened up

420
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: all kinds of avenues of temptation and opportunities, and that's

421
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: what eventually, you know, the culmination to that rape. That

422
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: if she couldn't get on TikTok or Facebook or x

423
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: or whatever or Snapchat or whatever, this probably would not

424
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 1: have happened. I mean, is that your central argument.

425
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 6: Correct?

426
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 4: Yes?

427
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 6: And you know the girl that she ran away with

428
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 6: a month ago, she had taken her mom's car and

429
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 6: she was speeding down the road out in the country

430
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 6: and there was a teenage boy in the passenger seat. Well,

431
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 6: he was leaning out of the window, just acting like

432
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 6: a kid, acting stupid, and he hit a mailbox and

433
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 6: it killed him. So the girl is trouble, the one

434
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 6: that she's with, and you know she it's it's hard

435
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 6: to keep a troubled child away from another trouble child

436
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 6: because when they do come together, it's it's not going

437
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 6: to be good. So I'm still on the fence about

438
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 6: it because of the government overreach, but something's got to

439
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 6: be done. Pedophilia and these these predators out there are

440
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 6: they're they're everywhere to.

441
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: Steve if you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna play

442
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: two cuts after after we're done, obviously with your call,

443
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 1: because it's it's making other parents are saying exactly what

444
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 1: you're saying, that it is so bad, and you're right.

445
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: The pedophilia, frankly, the uh, the sexual exploitation of children,

446
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: the the cyber bullying, the the ability of grown men

447
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: to pray on young teens, especially young girls, that it's

448
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: just it's so prevalent, it's so rampant that there it's

449
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: the wild West, and they're saying, there's got to be

450
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: something done. You can't be watching your child twenty four

451
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: hours a day, seven days a week. Steve, I'm just

452
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:11,719
Speaker 1: curious your your what your wife for her moms? How

453
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: do I say this? Did she feel there was anything

454
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: she could have possibly done that would have prevented this? Uh?

455
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 6: No, no, we if we tried it all we put

456
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 6: locks on her windows, and then she would just wait

457
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 6: for people to go to sleep and then go out

458
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 6: the front door, you know, or another window or you know.

459
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 6: And at some point you can't lock a place down

460
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 6: too much because then it becomes a fire hazard. You know,

461
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 6: it's you start blocking off escape routes if there's a fire.

462
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: Or Steve, again, I don't want to get too personal,

463
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: but if you yelled at her, if your you know,

464
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: your wife yelled at her, if you grounded her, if

465
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: you I mean, she's getting pretty old now, teen fourteen.

466
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you know you don't really spank them. But whatever,

467
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: a little whack, a little whatever. Uh, We're going to

468
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: throw you out of the house, you know, you know,

469
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: did anything, would anything, would anything slow her down? Would

470
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: anything deter her?

471
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 2: No?

472
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 6: Nothing, nothing, Facer. I mean, I I had my property

473
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 6: is all gated in six foot gate flocked, you know,

474
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 6: it's if somebody wants out of somewhere, they're going to

475
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 6: get out. I mean, we got people to break out

476
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 6: of prisons, so I mean it's there. There's we did

477
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 6: it all, and trust me, I tried, and finally I

478
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 6: just kind of threw my hands up in the air,

479
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 6: and so did her mom and were like, that's it.

480
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 6: You're going to live with your dad and uh and

481
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 6: he kind of put his foot down when she got there,

482
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 6: took all of her electronics and you know, she didn't

483
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 6: have all of her friends out there to where she

484
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 6: could just go get new ones or borrow their She

485
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 6: would get those the eighths with THC and them and they.

486
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 6: I mean that just floats around. Those things float around

487
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 6: schools like candy. It's crazy and it's it's gotten way

488
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 6: out of control. You know, when we were kids, all

489
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 6: we needed was a water hose and we can be

490
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 6: outside all day.

491
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know, I know. It's just

492
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 1: it's a different world. It's just unbelievable. It's a cesspool

493
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: out there. It really is. Steve, thank you, it took

494
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: a lot of courage to call in and tell that story.

495
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: Please give my best to your wife. If I don't

496
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: if you don't call before Christmas, I want to wish

497
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,239
Speaker 1: you a very merry Christmas. And please know that your

498
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: stepdaughter's in my prayers and thank I mean, it's horrible

499
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: what happened to her. It's a tragedy. It's a parent's

500
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: worst nightmare. But she's alive and God willing she learned

501
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: her lesson, Steve, thank you again. Six one, seven two six,

502
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, Remember

503
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: we talked about this group, the seven sixty four group,

504
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: so and how they prey on these young kids. Uh,

505
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: and many of them are you know, they're troubled, they're lonely,

506
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: they're whatever. Their parents are working or their parents are

507
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,479
Speaker 1: not giving them the kind of attention they should have

508
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: or need, whatever it may be. And so they're very vulnerable.

509
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: And so I spoke about Leslie and Colby Taylor, who

510
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 1: lost their son. He committed suicide after this group seven

511
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: sixty four. Pretended to be a girl his age fourteen

512
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: fifteen and said, Oh, I like you. You're handsome, you're attractive,

513
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: blah blah blah.

514
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 3: Uh.

515
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: Here's a picture of me, you know, showing some nudity.

516
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: I want you to be my cyber boyfriend. Blah blah,

517
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: will you send me a night picture of you? And

518
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: of course what is the you know, what does a

519
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: child do? The fourteen fifteen year old he sends a

520
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: picture of him whatever private parts, and then they blackmail him, saying,

521
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars or this goes to all your friends

522
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 1: or everybody at school, to your parents, you're going to

523
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: be the laughing stock. Well, he only had thirty dollars

524
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: and they said thirty is not enough, and he eventually

525
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: he committed suicide. Okay, so this is the kind of

526
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: stuff that seven sixty four does, this, this dark web group,

527
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: and they really prayed on this boy's loneliness. And the

528
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: father said, it's it's biblical in its evil that what

529
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: you're seeing now in some of the corners of the

530
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: web are just evil, evil, evil, It's it's satanic. I

531
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: want you to listen. Now, this is again on seven

532
00:33:54,920 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 1: sixty four. This is them. They did this now to

533
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: a girl. Okay, they do it to boys and girls,

534
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: same thing. Lonely a boyfriend, a fake boyfriend. Here's a

535
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: picture of me, send me a picture of you, and

536
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: now they're blackmailing her. But they're not just blackmailing her

537
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: for money now, they're almost they're torturing her. This is

538
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: them telling her that if she doesn't want these photos

539
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,240
Speaker 1: to be released and to her parents, to her friends,

540
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: that she's going to have to cut her own air,

541
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: her own hair and eat it. These people are sick.

542
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: They're sick. So they're saying cut it and eat it,

543
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: cut it and eat it, or we send it. And

544
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: this poor girl is sobbing, sobbing like I don't want

545
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: to do this. This is humiliating. Here's the audio of

546
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 1: that taking place. Roll cut thirty one, Mike.

547
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 7: Their goal to unleash chaos.

548
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,240
Speaker 3: They're targets, mostly children.

549
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 4: It's chopping time, like this girl coerce to cut her own.

550
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 3: Hair and eat it.

551
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: Hey, by the way, that was an ABC report, just

552
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: so that you know. Now here's another one. This is

553
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: testimony on Capitol Hill just a couple days ago. People

554
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: parents saying we need something similar like what they have

555
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:45,439
Speaker 1: in Australia. This is Tamia Woods. She is the mother

556
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: of a sexting victim, a young boy, underage boy, James Woods,

557
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: and she's saying these kids are being preyed upon, they're

558
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: being used they're being exploited, they're being taken advantage of,

559
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: and then they're put in these sexually compromised positions because

560
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: they're lonely, or they're desperate, or whatever it may be,

561
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: and they end up. Her boy ended up killing himself.

562
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,760
Speaker 1: Another one who committed suicide because they threatened to release

563
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:24,720
Speaker 1: photos intimate photos that he took of himself. Roll cut

564
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 1: thirty two. To me, this is a parent's worst nightmare

565
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: to not only you lose a young child, but my God,

566
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,879
Speaker 1: to have your young child kill themselves. Roll cut thirty two.

567
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 7: Mike, what I would say to children is be vulnerable

568
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 7: one more time, one more time. Yet she may not

569
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 7: have made the best decision. We are all that way.

570
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 7: We make mistakes. You matter enough through your mistakes. I

571
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 7: don't care what it is. You speak up, say something,

572
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 7: you stand up for yourself, because we can make sure

573
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 7: that we have your back no matter what.

574
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 1: I would give.

575
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 7: Anything to have my son back. And if they have

576
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 7: to learn, if they have to see James faith, if

577
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,479
Speaker 7: they have to see my tears, I'm gonna make sure

578
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 7: that it happens. If it means that I can save

579
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 7: your grandchildren, I'm gonna do it.

580
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: In other words, tell your kids, look, so what, Okay,

581
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 1: we'll see a picture of your private parts. Okay, it's

582
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: not the end of the world. Like, just you don't

583
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: need to kill yourself. In other words, a they want

584
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: a band, okay, obviously they want a ban, but what

585
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: they're also saying is, look, it's not that bad, you know.

586
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 1: In other words, talk to your children, like let them know, hey, look,

587
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 1: if everything ever happens where you know you've mates given

588
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: some pictures out or taking pictures of yourself that you

589
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: think are really humiliating and embarrassing, it's gonna be okay.

590
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: We love you, we'll accept you, we'll get through it.

591
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: Don't worry about it, like you can come to us.

592
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,240
Speaker 1: And that's what she's saying, like be vulnerable one last time.

593
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's okay. You don't have to hang yourself

594
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: or kill yourself, you know, Like please, like let your

595
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 1: child know that it's fine. Whatever you did that was wrong,

596
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:37,240
Speaker 1: it will be forgiven. It will be okay. So because

597
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: as she's she's right, I would give anything
