I just spent six days 35 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: in New York and it honestly feels like they just 36 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: let out in a sane asylum. You have like all 37 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: of these crazy people walking around.

What's 41 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: California like right now? You know, California it's it's such 42 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: a huge state. So, I mean, I live in Malibu. 43 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: Malib was great. There's been a couple of uh, um, 44 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: it's sort of like a you know, uh flash mob 45 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: kind of robberies that have taken place. Apparently I heard this. 46 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't know anything about it, but I 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: heard this from my sister and some other folks here. 48 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: So there's been a couple of instances like that that 49 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: have taken place. Um, but you hear about it all 50 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: the time in Los Angeles itself, all kinds of crazy 51 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: stuff going on. You know, I'm a I'm a I'm 52 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: a sworn sheriff's deputy and a reserve police officer, and 53 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: I I can't, for the life of me understand how 54 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: these things are allowed to happen, continually happening and and 55 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: not being prosecuted by by you know, people like George 56 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: Gascon here in Los Angeles. It's just insane. Well, and 57 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: you were sworn in as a reserve officer, as you 58 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: just mentioned, uh in two thousand and eighteen. What what 59 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 1: spurred that decision to to do that? Well, they have 60 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: been this huge sort of First of all, I have 61 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: great respect for the military law enforcement and first responders 62 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: always have. Um. My grandfather was was in the commander 63 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: of the Navy. My uncle was lieutenant colonel in the 64 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: Air Force. He flew at fifteens um. And and then 65 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: I just had a lot of great friends. Who are 66 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, Navy seals and and special forces guys, and 67 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: I I just have such respect for them. Um. And 68 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: then the sort of the rhetoric had gone into this 69 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: weird place of being anti police and uh, you know, 70 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: occasionally there's a bad apple here or there, they should 71 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: be removed from the force. I'm with that. We all 72 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: know some police officers. You're like, that guy shouldn't be 73 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: or that girl shouldn't have a badge and a gun. Um. 74 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: But but by and large they're fantastic people. In the 75 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: way they're being vilified, I figured, you know what, instead 76 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: of just talking about my support for them, I'm gonna 77 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna show up and I'm gonna put on the 78 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: badge and and the gun and and and stand there 79 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: with my you know, brothers and sisters in blue. And 80 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: I've been doing it for six years now. You know what, 81 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: It's been great fun. Um, it's been wonderful to to 82 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: to see what kind of people you know who are 83 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: police officers, and they're all people, I mean, to a 84 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: person that I know within my two departments, they're fantastic people. Um, 85 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: and your your everyday fantastic folks who who are who 86 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: are trained to be in these horrible situations and have 87 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: to react. A couple of my good friends and fellow 88 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: officers up in Idaho got shot you know last year, Um, um, 89 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: and they they both survived and and uh, they're they're 90 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: doing great. But one of them was you know, worked 91 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: with me on the on the on the range and 92 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: was our range officer, and um, he was a great 93 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,679 Speaker 1: shot too. It's a good thing. Probably saved his life. Um, 94 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: but you know, he got shot in the face and 95 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: he didn't even look any worse for it though he's 96 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: he's still handsome, so but he's fully recovered. But I mean, 97 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 1: there's the kind of people that are just your friends 98 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: and they're regular everyday folks who are putting these situations 99 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: where they have to react right now or or they 100 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: or they die or someone else dies. So it's they're 101 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: just they're just great people. Well, it's the thing I 102 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: think everyone you know, everyone watches these videos and stuff 103 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: unfold and they're like, oh, why didn't they just do? 104 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: But like when you're in that situation, I mean you 105 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: maybe you've been in this situation, but I've not. And 106 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: you know this sort of like split second decision. How 107 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: do you save your life? How do you save you know? 108 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: I mean, like you don't have that kind of time 109 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: to be sort of thinking through these scenarios. It's like 110 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: you've just gotta you know what I mean, It's it's crazy. 111 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: You go right to your training, and your training is 112 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: always shoot center mass and shoot to stop the threat. Um. 113 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: It's not shoot to kill, it's shoot to stop the threat. 114 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: When they stop the threat, they're not shooting anymore. Um. 115 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: But you know, you you have to react in a 116 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: in a split second. I mean even President Biden was 117 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: like shoot them in the leg. You know how difficult. 118 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 1: You know. Also, there's a thing of the fhemeral artery. 119 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: If you shoot that, they're gonna die anyway. Um. You know, 120 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: you shoot somebody hits a bone, it's gonna break the bone. 121 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: I mean, there's awful things that happened with gunshots and 122 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: and awful, but you know we're taught and trained to 123 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: shoot center mass to stop the threat. That's how it 124 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: works because it's it's hard anybody who doesn't shoot you 125 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: try to hit a moving target. You know, it's very 126 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: difficult to do. Most I think most gunfights are like 127 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: within like four ft and everything is the shots or mrs. 128 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: You know, it says some kind of crazy statistic like 129 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: that because you know, everybody's trying to get out of 130 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: the way and it's hard to hit him moving target. 131 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: People don't believe me. Get out on the range and 132 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: and take a shot, take a few shots, and see 133 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: see what you do. Well. Now, so you know, Joe 134 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: Biden's never shot a gun because I I I'm like 135 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: new to this, right, So I'm getting a gun for 136 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: the first time. I've been I've taken my concealed carry 137 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: class I have. I've been training with an instructor because 138 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: I feel like it's a big responsibility, you know, and 139 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: I want to know what I'm doing before I bring 140 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: a gun home and have it in my home and 141 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: and have that kind of responsibility. So like that's like 142 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: the first thing, one of the first things you're taught 143 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: is you shoot center mass. And so it's very clear, 144 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: like clearly he's never had held a gun. Right, Like 145 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: he has no idea what he's talking about. Like I know, 146 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: I know this, and I'm not even trained like you 147 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, like I've I've taken a handful of classes 148 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: at at best, you know, right, But I mean, like 149 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: he says things so inane, like you know, he told 150 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: I told Jill, you know, just you hears something going 151 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: on in the backyard, go out there with a double 152 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: barrel shotgun and fire off a couple of rounds. And 153 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: you know, I'm like, literally that's illegal. Hey, you're out 154 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: of you have no more shells in your double barrel 155 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: shotgun and you gotta reload. And what are you shooting at? 156 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: You know, you you have to see your target before 157 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: you shoot, and also what's beyond your target? I mean, 158 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: there's so many things. I was like, what you can't 159 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: there's a hysterical um that little that news that that 160 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: video where Darren Chris sings the you know by a shotgun. 161 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: It's it's a hysterical and people haven't seen it. Look 162 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: it up. It is so funny. But it's clear that 163 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: he has no business. Um, he doesn't understand guns or 164 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: gun laws or anything, so he really has no business 165 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: talking about him. It drives me bananas. But it's that 166 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: kind of the problem with all these guys. You've got 167 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: all these politicians who are writing policies, who are you know, 168 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: coming up with legislation that either they're completely unfamiliar with, 169 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, or or that just doesn't impact them in 170 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: any way whatsoever a hundred percent. And that's what makes 171 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: me crazy when I see people talking about you see 172 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: Thomas Massey, you know, and they're talking talking about laughing 173 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: at one of some of these things people are talking about, 174 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, um about you know, a bump stock or whatever. 175 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: Bump stock by the way, anybody who knows anything bump 176 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: stock is the most ridiculous. It's just stupid. And so 177 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: how that became political bump stock? Anybody's uosing a bump stock. 178 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: You can't hit hit it can't hit anything, first of all, 179 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: because you don't want to shoot automatically, you know, you 180 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: don't want to go fully auto any anyways. But I 181 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: don't want to get into this specificity of that, but 182 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: it's clear they don't know what they're talking about, and 183 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: it's it's it's ridiculous, you know, go full semi auto. Well, 184 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: full semi auto doesn't exist. You're, oh, every gun is 185 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: semi automatic. Um, but it's clear that they don't know 186 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: what they're talking about when they're doing talking about these 187 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: things and making policy and law and that that is 188 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: it's insanity, it's it should never be happening. Well, I 189 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: think it's probably why everything's, you know, such a mess. 190 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: Among you know, a list of other things, quick break 191 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: more with Dean Kine. You know what I was thinking 192 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: about the other day, Uh, and before you know, knowing 193 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: that I was going to interview at you today and 194 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: then also had this like ran into my head the 195 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: other day about the New Year's Eve special.

I 208 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: texted my parents afterwards, and I think I could not 209 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: hit the right buttons on my phone. I think my 210 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: fingers I'm not even kidding, you know, Like it was 211 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: like I was communicating, I was trying to like hit 212 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: the right buttons, and my fingers were just so cold. 213 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: I could not. It was like it was like I 214 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: didn't I had no control over them. It was the 215 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 1: most bizarre thing. That's how my tongue was starting to 216 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: get I was starting to freeze, and so my lips 217 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: are starting to freeze, and I'll started starting to mispronounced words, 218 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: just the same as my same as the texting. I 219 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: was a little bit. It was it was freaking cold, 220 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: and I couldn't believe how many people were out there 221 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 1: still in that weather. Incredible. You know. I was thinking, 222 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: I told a friend this. I don't know why this 223 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: I could popp to my but remember when we interviewed 224 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: the naked cowboy. Yeah, so I had asked him. I 225 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: was like, oh, like, what does your mom think of this? 226 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: And he was like she's dead and I was like, 227 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: oh god, just that, yeah, like Nearsy's supposed to be fun, 228 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: and I was like, I just killed like you can't. 229 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: There's no way you can know that. There's no way. 230 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: And it's a fair question because I would have wanted 231 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: to him, and I can't console him because the dude's naked, 232 00:10:58,480 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: Like you know, I'm like, I'm not going to give 233 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: that this guy hug. So I was just like, I know, 234 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: I just made this so awkward and it's supposed to 235 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: be fun. It's like, I don't know what to do 236 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: with this guy. I'm so sorry. TV. That is the 237 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: fun of live TV. That's hysterical. I know. I was 238 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: like this, I don't know why this just popped in 239 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: my head. The other day, I was talking to a 240 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: friend about something and it just like I kind of 241 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 1: giggled myself because I like, you know, just popped in 242 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: my head, and I was like, I felt so bad. 243 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know what to do. I'm not gonna lie. 244 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: I often think about the naked cowboy myself. Yes, that's 245 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: it's wrong. That is exactly if so. I was thinking 246 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: about him, so the one who got away, you know, like, uh, 247 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: you know, so I was looking at you know, because 248 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: obviously I know you, but I didn't know, so I 249 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: knew you played football at Princeton, but I didn't realize 250 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 1: that you brew briefly in the NFL for the Buffalo Bills, 251 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: but then you hurt yournee. Did you ever? Like, what 252 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: do you think do you think you would have gotten 253 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: into acting if the NFL thing had worked out? Yeah? 254 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: I think I would have eventually got into acting, but 255 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: it would have been, you know, after after football was over. 256 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: I think that for sure would have happened, only because 257 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: I grew up in it. I grew up around it. 258 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: I grew up you know, my dad's a director. I 259 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: grew up with Roblow, Charlie Sheen, Amelia Estevez, Holly Robinson, 260 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: all these sorts of people who Sean Penn, Chris Penn, 261 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: all these guys who became actors, guys and girls who 262 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: got into that world because our parents were involved in 263 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: that industry. And um, I also just noticed what my 264 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: friends were doing, Like at Princeton, they'd go and work 265 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: on Wall Street for internships in the summertime, and uh, 266 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: I would go on my dad's sets, and I was like, 267 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, these sets are a hell of 268 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: a lot more fun than than eighty hours in a 269 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: in a suit in New York City in the UH 270 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: in the dead of summer. No way, So, um, I said, 271 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's. I liked the idea of having 272 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: project by project, you know, life's as I preferred doing 273 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: my like independent work at Princeton. I liked writing my 274 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: big papers and doing things like that more than going 275 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: to class every day. So it really was more in 276 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: the world that I wanted to be. Um the creative 277 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: world as well. So I knew by the time I 278 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: was a junior that there's no way I was gonna 279 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: be an investment banker on Wall Street and I was 280 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: gonna work in the film industry in some which some 281 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: way shape its form. My idea was to start as 282 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: a writer, and I did start as a writer. Um, 283 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: but what my idea was that would be working on 284 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: my writing at night and then playing football during the day. 285 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: And you know that was keep my mind working and 286 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: as I was bashing my head against other people's heads. Yeah, 287 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: sounds a little contradictory. I want that's my life. That 288 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: is absolutely my life. So that's that's that's what I 289 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: thought i'd be doing. And and I'm and I've been blessed, 290 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: so blessed and lucky to be able to be doing 291 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: that for so many years. I don't want to say 292 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: how many, but it's been a long time. And I 293 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: thowt you went to high school with Charlie Chen and 294 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: Rob blow elementary school? Oh really, I mean I played, 295 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 1: you know, Charlie and I were in baseball teams forever together. Um, 296 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: you know, all over the place. I mean Rob didn't 297 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: really participate in sports. He wasn't a sportster. The girls 298 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: love Rob like he didn't want to hurt the faith. 299 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: He didn't want to hurt face, not the faith. Uh 300 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, you know he liked his his his brother 301 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: Chad is a it was a better athlete than than Rob. 302 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: But you know, it was such a small little area 303 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: growing up that we all knew each other so well. So, 304 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean Maliwood now only has like thirteen thousand people 305 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: in it. People don't realize that there's not a whole 306 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: lot of folks out here. Do you want to stay 307 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: in touch? Oh yeah, it's family. If I see any 308 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: of them, it's it's family right away. Even though you know, look, 309 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: some guys have made some poor choices and done some 310 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: weird things, and um, but they're still family, like Sean 311 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: Penn and I like our parents are best friends. I 312 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: see Sean, it's his family. I couldn't disagree with him 313 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: more politically on most everything. Um but I still love 314 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: the guy. Do you learn who your friends are in 315 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: Hollywood when you come out and support a President Trump. 316 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: I realized that people have this. President Trump broke a 317 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: lot of people. They have such as some people just 318 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: have such a clear total dislike for him that they 319 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: are blinded to anything else. They can't talk policy, they 320 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: can't do anything. Um but I'd love to get him 321 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: involved in a conversation. Let's have this, Let's have a discussion. 322 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: What don't you like? I can't stand him. He's still rude, 323 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. What about his policies? Well what did 324 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: I get? Nothing? So that's what I get into. It 325 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: was like, look, you don't have to like the guy. 326 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: I don't. That's up to you. Some people don't like me, 327 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: maybe I don't like you. But policy is what what 328 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: matters to you, know when a politician steps out there, 329 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: and the policies that President Trump had in place where 330 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: a thousand times better, uh than the policies that this 331 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: current administration has and they want to, I want to 332 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: discuss policy. They don't really. Hollywood also is as a 333 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: as a land of cowards. They would never say, um, 334 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: you know, I I disagree with this, blah blah blah blah. 335 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: They don't really say that. They they they would. They 336 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: kind of smile to your face and then stab you 337 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: in the back as you walk away. Well did you 338 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: see that? Uh this Sydney Sweeney. Uh, she's in Euphoria, 339 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: the show you I've never watched it, but it's you know, popular. 340 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: But apparently now she's like maybe getting canceled because she 341 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: threw apart. Did you see this? Like through a party 342 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: for her mom and apparently people were wearing like make 343 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: sixty Great Again hats and then there was some guy 344 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: in a you know, a pro you know, please something 345 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: like that. And then now she's there's like I'm even 346 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: like looking at the news articles right now. It's insane. 347 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: It's absolute madness. God bless her and her family. Happy 348 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: birthday to her mom. And I, you know me, I 349 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: don't just again, the idea that you know, somebody wears 350 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: a back the blue shirt and that's offensive is totally insane. 351 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: I and I go so far as to strap on 352 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: a badge and a gun. So I go the exact opposite. 353 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I go full blue. So I think that's 354 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: just madness. And and look, city Sweeney's four years old. 355 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: She's drop dead gorgeous. Um, and she's on a show. 356 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 1: I haven't watched it either because I don't watch many shows. 357 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: But bless her, and she'll hopefully just give him all 358 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: the finger and and and carry on with what she's doing. 359 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: I haven't seen this stuff. I should look it up. 360 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: But the idea of canceling someone because they support law enforcement, 361 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: or because they support President Trump, or even even that 362 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: that that shout out to President Trump, or even you know, 363 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean somebody else, who is it? It's it's a 364 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: Nick Cercy, a buddy of mine, real good buddy of mine. 365 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: And um, an outspoken conservative is hysterical. I think, what 366 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: do you have had? Make make Americans smart again? I 367 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: think that's what that was. Um. But listen, I have listen. 368 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: I I've met with President Trump in the Oval Office. 369 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: I've got one of his forty five hats. That thing 370 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: is awesome. I love it, um, and I think it 371 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: says make American great again. UM, I don't wear it out. There, Um, 372 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 1: just because I don't like to wear red hats, but 373 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: just because I wear a black hats, that's what I 374 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: like to wear. Um. Red's not your color, then is 375 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: that your it's It has nothing to do with the implication. 376 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: But red is not my color. Um. Orange. I'd wear 377 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: orange only because orange and black with the Princeton Tigers 378 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: and I can do that. Um. But but that's about it. Um. 379 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: And I wear purple sometimes now because my son goes 380 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: to the school high Point University and their purple. Um, 381 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: but not Red's not my color. But it has nothing 382 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: to do with the the idea that it's a that 383 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: make American grade again. Had and Sydney Sweeney, good for her. 384 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: Stand strong, um and just don't listen to all that 385 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: stupid noise. Continue just being an actor and do your finger. 386 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: And also, I don't think these people understand if you 387 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: just ignore it, it's gonna go away. Yeah, and they'll 388 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: go find another target. It's when they keep apologizing and 389 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: you know they've been, they've been the knee. That's when 390 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: you get canceled. If you're just like, yeah, you know, 391 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: whatever was my mom's birthday, I move on, then people 392 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: will move on. Yep, she should they will. I did 393 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: notice that, um, because I I was targeted with a 394 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: lot of stuff early on. And you know you can't. 395 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: I'll never apologize for for something unless I've you know, 396 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: made a legitimate mistake, you know, Um, But then I 397 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: would tell I mean I was wrong about that. This 398 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: is how it should be. But bowing, bending the knee 399 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: and bowing to the mob is an absolute uh. It's 400 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: it's a disaster for anybody. And I've seen it happen 401 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: to people who I respect too, And I'm like, oh man, 402 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: why did you do that? You know, it doesn't It 403 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: doesn't feel any better now, does it. And now, um, 404 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: you're you're getting hit from both sides. So it's just 405 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: screw that holds wrong with your beliefs. Let it go 406 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: and move on. You're right, this is this thing about 407 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: her will probably go away and within two weeks. Why 408 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: do you think so many people bend the knee? I 409 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: think they just want to be accepted, you know, they 410 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: don't want to have that cancel culture mob like staring 411 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: at them, yelling at them. You feel attacked and you 412 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 1: just want to go look, no, no, everything's cool, We're 413 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: I'm okay.

If you have an accusation, now 420 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: it's enough to get people, you know, tossed off the 421 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: teams and things like that, which I think is insane. 422 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: It's it's so I think people just don't want to 423 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: get canceled, and they're scared, so they just try and no, no, no, 424 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: I I'm a supporter of this or that or whatever, um, 425 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 1: And it's crazy. You can't it. It doesn't work. It 426 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: just doesn't work. Never bow to the outrage mob.

Was awful, ugly UM. And then 442 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: I ended up with full custody of him when he 443 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: was nine, but fully legally when he was eleven or twelve. UM. 444 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: I changed everything that I did. It was no longer 445 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: my My career wasn't what was the focus of my life. 446 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: My son was and the career took second place. So 447 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: I turned down being what it would have been possibly 448 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: the highest paid actor in television. UM. For sure. That 449 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: end up going six years. I wasn't in l A 450 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: And that was the reason I had to turn it 451 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: down because I was trying to I was in the 452 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: middle of fighting for joint custody and my son and 453 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: I would have to find a move a a case. 454 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: And I put my attorney said you probably I can't 455 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: say you're gonna win this. Um. I said, so I 456 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: can choose, but for I can choose between being a 457 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: father or having this career and make all this money here, 458 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: and he was like yeah, I said, okay, I choose dad. 459 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: I choose being a father because because my um, I 460 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: was adopted. My dad adopted me when I was four, 461 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 1: and I look at all the times in my life 462 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: where I needed him, and man, they were a lot, 463 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: um and so I was never gonna have been in 464 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 1: my son in any way, shape or for him like that. 465 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: So I didn't. And it was just it was tough 466 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: to balance being a dad and still making movies. So 467 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: I started making a lot of Hallmark movies, a lot 468 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: of kids movies and things like that where I could 469 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: bring him on set with me and have him around 470 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: and and he'd see what we're shooting and it's okay, 471 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: I'm not shooting everybody and blowing everything up or you know, 472 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: those kinds of films.

You gotta have enough 487 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: where you you know you can, you can spread it 488 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,360 Speaker 1: out a little bit. I did not take that advice, 489 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: uh to heart, and so I only have the one boy. 490 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: I have some god kids and others that I really 491 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,479 Speaker 1: care for and take care of. But there's nothing like 492 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: love I have for my son. I've never experienced anything 493 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: like it. It's the greatest thing ever. Well, I've seen 494 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: you guys together, and I've met him. He's awesome. So 495 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 1: you've done a You've done a good job as a dad. Yeah, 496 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: my mom says that you're you're only as happy as 497 00:23:53,119 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: your least happy. Yes, and it's true. Your mom is correct. 498 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: She also told me I was more difficult to raise 499 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: than all three boys combined. Also, I totally believe that, 500 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: not from you specifically, but but I have noticed this. 501 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: My my sister is raising a daughter. It's a lot 502 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: more complicated. We're pretty simple. Men were pretty simple. We 503 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: actually belong in at least a full grade below um, 504 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: the same age girls that were. I noticed that too, like, like, 505 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: we should be a grade below because we're just not 506 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: as smart. Well, you know, we have a lot of emotions, 507 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: particularly when we're younger. And then I was very I 508 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: was very stubborn and independent. If you if you can imagine, 509 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: so I can imagine. I do my best to take 510 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: care of them. Now I feel like I like owe them. 511 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 1: It's like huge debt from what I put them through. 512 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: I'm like, what do you guys need and how can 513 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: I help? You know, Like, okay, help, I understand why. 514 00:24:54,400 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: I realized what my difficulty. Uh here it's my I'm 515 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: paying my debts. You know. You know, so you'd played 516 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: Peter Struck in the play FBI Love Birds. Uh what 517 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: do you Why do you think the FBI rated President Trump? 518 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 1: I think, I you know, hate to be a conspiracy theorist, 519 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: but I think it all goes I have never seen 520 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: government persecution of an individual. It's political. It's disgusting. They're 521 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 1: all political attacks. The entire time he was in office. 522 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: It was the same thing. Both impeachments were jokes. I mean, 523 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: ridiculous situations. And I've never seen anybody uh so maligned 524 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: as President Trump. I think he was about January six. 525 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 1: I think they were trying to get more information and 526 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: they're trying to keep him from running in Um. It's 527 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: disgusting to me. We're not you know, this isn't some 528 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: banana republic here. You know that he has did his 529 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: total persecution of a political rival, and it's disgusting. It 530 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: is kind of scary though. Matt Walsh tweeted this out 531 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 1: today actually in response to the Sydney Sweeney stuff, and 532 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: he said, we're like a month away from the Salem 533 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: witch trials. But it does feel like I mean, it 534 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: does kind of feel like that a little bit. It 535 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 1: is a little bit scary in the direction that this 536 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: is all heading and and just the virtual like rhetoric 537 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: and actions towards people like us who supported President Trump. Yeah, 538 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: it's it's it's insane, um and it it is I 539 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: think it's been being cultivated at the you know, educational level, 540 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,239 Speaker 1: um for a long time and been sort of been 541 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: putting putting these these ideas in people's minds. Um, it's crazy. 542 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: It's like they haven't studied history. We have plenty of 543 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: examples and stuff like this happening in the past and 544 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: in other countries, even in this country. I mean even 545 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: in this country, we've seeing stuff like that before. Even 546 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: you know, the all of the blacklisting stuff that went 547 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Um, which which is which is still you 548 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 1: know quietly happening here. Uh it's like shadow banning, you 549 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: know that sort of stuff. It's it's it's insanity. Um, 550 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: it's wrong. And and hopefully this pendulum will swim swing 551 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: back um where people will be able to spects people 552 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: with other opinions. They are all the people going, oh, 553 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: it's all about diversity, uh an inclusion, except for diversity 554 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: of opinion. If you've got the wrong opinion, Oh you're out, 555 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: You're gone. So it's their complete complete um, Um, what's 556 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: the word? It start to the nature hypocrites there it is. Uh, 557 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: they're complete and total hypocrites. And they talk about that 558 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: stuff and it's always I get more hate and victory 559 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: often than people who have like love and and acceptance 560 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: and resist and stuff in there. Bio love everyone you know, 561 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: la la, everybody should be included. Oh you, I hate you. 562 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: I hope you know you're like wh whoa, whoa? What 563 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: happened to the love and the diversity and acceptance? It's 564 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: just gone now because I don't agree with you. Politically interesting, 565 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: it's insanity. Although I think Republicans have sort of wisened 566 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: up because it's like they always try it or they're like, oh, 567 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: you say you're a Christian like this that, and and 568 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, I don't need lecturers from 569 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: people who like support transitioning children and like murdering babies, 570 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: so you know what I mean, Like, I really don't 571 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: need a lecture from you. So, but you're gonna get it. 572 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: You're gonna get it. I don't know if people actually 573 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: approach you and have those conversations, because they don't ever 574 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 1: with me. Almost never, it's just Twitter. It's Twitter, Twitter, 575 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: for sure. Everyone's brave on Twitter. I have to log 576 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: off sometimes because people it just gets exhausting sometimes being 577 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: on there with all this stuff. It really it really 578 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: does well. And we've done internment camps before as a 579 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: country as well. So I mean it's like I do 580 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 1: worry a little bit about my family was interred. Oh 581 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: I didn't know that, but I didn't really it seems enough. Yeah, 582 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: my family, my my my, my father, my grandfather, my 583 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: whole family. They were interred my Japanese side during World 584 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: War two and min Minnedoka over there in Idaho, about 585 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: forty minutes from where I serve as an officer. I 586 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: haven't been there, but I'm I just recently found this 587 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: stuff out because I don't know that side of the 588 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: family very well because I never knew that my biological father, 589 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: never knew him. So but um, you know, with all 590 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: this information that's out there in these twenty three and 591 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: me and ancestry dot Com, I'm I'm finding stuff out. 592 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: It's actually fascinating. But yeah, they were insurd. It just 593 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: seems like we're heading towards it. Just with the left, 594 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: the ends justify the means, and I really honestly think 595 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: we're getting to a place where, uh, you know, they'd 596 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: be willing to do anything one to stop Trump and 597 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: then two to retain power, and then that creates obviously 598 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: a really dangerous scenario in the country. It absolutely does, 599 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: and I pray we don't get there. I think we 600 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: cooler heads will prevail. I'm also the ultimate optimist, so 601 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: I feel I can and will hopefully be a big 602 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: red wave in November. We'll get some things back on track. 603 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, there's a lot of people out there. 604 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: We're fighting sort of the good fight, whether it's the 605 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: Daily Wire and those folks, or the Babylon b or 606 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: people like that that are sort of keeping U besides 607 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: sort of balanced. Uh. And I like that, and I 608 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: hope that continues, and I hope that that's why there's like, 609 00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: you know, there's a reason Fox News has been number 610 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: one for thirty years, you know what I mean, Um, 611 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: there are people who are paying attention to that and 612 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: and and MSNBC and CNN or you know, CNN went 613 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: far left and then they lost all their audience. That 614 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: stuff that speaks volumes. I feel like I'm definitely more 615 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,479 Speaker 1: of like a realist. Like people are ago, it's half four, Oh, 616 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: it's half empty. I'm like, no, it's just how you know, 617 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: it's just right there, it's right in the middle, right there. 618 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: You know. I do want to be an optimist though. 619 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: I believe in the United States and I believe in 620 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: UM that people will will will come to their senses. Um, 621 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: you know, things like defund the police won't be won't 622 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: be something that people are are chanting. The stupidity of 623 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: it all. I mean, I said these things back when 624 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: it first came out, cash less bail. I'm like, what 625 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: did you go wrong? I mean I remember being on 626 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: and hosting Fox and Friends and having you know, I 627 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: remember having Nicole Mallia talkas before she was elected to 628 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: Congress talk she was running, and remember having a conversation, 629 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: how insane is this? And then now we see the 630 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: results of it. It's it's craziness that has been going on, 631 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: and those progressive policies don't work. They just don't period. 632 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: And then they're like, we don't know why this is happening, 633 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: and it's like, well, it's it's pretty odd. It's because 634 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: you're just letting it's a revolving door of crime. You're 635 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: letting these people out on the streets, and that's why 636 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: it's happening. It's really not that difficult. It's very much 637 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: common sense, extreme common sense. And the four police officers 638 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: are doing their job. But the prosecutors won't won't prosecute 639 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: them or keep you know, people have like, you know, 640 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: nine team counts on their rap sheet. You know, you're like, 641 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: we'll come on, and it's you can't keep just letting 642 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: them out. What's gonna happen is there's gonna be there's 643 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: gonna be pushed back, and people are gonna take that 644 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: the law into their own hands. It's gonna get ugly 645 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: and people someone's gonna go and try to do one 646 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: of those you know, smash and grabs. Someone's gonna get 647 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: shot or a bunch of people are gonna get shot. 648 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,959 Speaker 1: It's gonna get awful um and and I hope, I 649 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: hope it doesn't, but I fear that's where it's going 650 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: because people won't put up with it. They just won't. 651 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: And it's like the same thing with Illegal Immigree show. 652 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: And you've got all these people like mayor atoms and 653 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: they were like, oh, diversities are strong, let let the 654 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: let them all in. And then the second people start 655 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: showing up in New York City and d C, they're like, oh, 656 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: this is too much, this is so cruel, like we 657 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: can't afford it, or this is overwhelming or infrastructure or healthcare, 658 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, well, this is what we've 659 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: been saying, screen natural conclusion of your policies. I mean, 660 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: the idea of what's happening in the border. It literally stunts. 661 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: It's stunning, like that is such a congress so abdicating 662 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: their job that literally is their job. And the fact 663 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: that you know, try and go into any other country. 664 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: I've had a home and stains for twenty years, which 665 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: I've often said to you, you can go stay at 666 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: any time you want. You. By the way, I didn't 667 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: take you up on that. You should it's lovely, um, 668 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: but I mean you you you have to when you 669 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: go in these other countries, you have to follow their laws. 670 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: You have to follow their rules. You can't just cruise 671 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: in and and do that sort of stuff. I mean, like, 672 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: it's it's crazy what we're allowing to happen on our 673 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: southern border. It is not in any way, shape or 674 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: form um being being fair to the people are that 675 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: are coming through. And then even the steps are taking 676 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: to go through with the cartels and all of the 677 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: horrific freaking um fent and all and stuff that's coming through. 678 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been seeing what's going on there. Uh, 679 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: and they're pretending like it doesn't exist. This administration has 680 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,959 Speaker 1: like we tried to redefine so many The border is closed. 681 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: No it's not. It's not even close to close. They 682 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: say enough times they think that you you're gonna believe it. Um, 683 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: you know, and this inflation is transitory, No it's not. 684 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: You know, there's a zero percent zero that's how much 685 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: inflation happened, this monthing. Yeah, because it's already at nine. 686 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: But it just stayed the same. It just didn't grow. 687 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they just are redefining things and the idea 688 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: that people are going to just buy it, and people 689 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: are for some reason, I mean I think people are 690 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: waking up to it. But um, a lot of people 691 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: are just buying what they're selling. And it's ridiculous. It 692 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: reminds me of the old regimes back in the day. 693 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: Um old you know, autocratic receimes down in you know, 694 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: Latin America. It's it's craziness. Well, Jesse Kelly has this 695 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: great theory, it's the sky is Green theory. And he 696 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: says that if I am not going to do it justice, 697 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: but basically, if Joe Biden went out tomorrow and said 698 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: the sky is green. You would have everyone in the 699 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: press saying the sky is green. You would start seeing 700 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 1: academic papers about how this guy is green. You would 701 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: have a Lebron James would come out and say, hey, 702 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: the sky is green by my favorite nikes. And then 703 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: like Hollywood would start having you know, the sky is 704 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: green and the backdrop of movies, and then by the 705 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: end of it, and you know, half of the country 706 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: would say this guy is green even though it's clearly 707 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: not and you could look up and see that it's blue. 708 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: What do you think is going to happen this November? 709 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 1: I pray that it's going to be a big giant 710 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: red wave UM and we'll have some balance restored to 711 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,439 Speaker 1: this our politicians, our political machine, UH, Congress and Senate. 712 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: I'd love to see Congress and Senate turn red UM 713 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: and to basically just UM and voters to say it's 714 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: a full rejection of this current regime's UM administration's policies. 715 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: I would love to see that happen. What are my 716 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: things gonna happen? I don't know, because I don't want to. 717 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: You know, like it's before I play a football game 718 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: and I can say we're gonna win by twenty points. 719 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: But um, I'd like to win. I'd like I'd like 720 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: I'd like for common sense to win. I'd like to 721 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: to see a bunch of people, um Republicans get elected 722 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: and restore balanced to this to this administration, because right 723 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: now it's completely out of control. They got a problem. 724 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: They got a spending problem, for sure. The idea of 725 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 1: hiring eighties seven thousand new I R S Agents, I mean, 726 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: it's it feels like government against the people, and it's 727 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: just very odd. It does feel like that, uh, you 728 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: know it. And and then just to complete disconnect to 729 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: as I mentioned earlier about their policy, they're just completely 730 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: insulated from these policies that are just destroying the lives 731 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: of so many Americans. It's it's sad to see, well, 732 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: of course, because they're they go in and there worth 733 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,879 Speaker 1: three thousand dollars when they go on, and then five 734 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: years later there were, you know, thirty million. How's that happen? 735 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: That's what I was saying about Trump the other day 736 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: on like Fox, I was like, whatever you think of 737 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: the guy, Like he's one of the you politicians that 738 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,919 Speaker 1: had something to lose when he went into politics. Everyone else, 739 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: as you just mentioned, they go into it to get rich, right, 740 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: like Joe Biden. In what world would Joe Biden be 741 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: worth eight million dollars in the private sector? Like the 742 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: guy is an idiot none, you know, like in what 743 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 1: world is Yeah, he's never worked in the private exactly 744 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: because he's an idiot, so he stays in government.
