1
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: Ah, beaut force. If it doesn't work, you're just not

2
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 1: using enough. You're listening to software Radio, Special Operations, military

3
00:00:25,520 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: news and straight talk with the guys and the community

4
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: soft rep dot com on time on Target. I don't

5
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: think the audience heard what you originally said, so you know,

6
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I feel very sloppy because I was

7
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: out drinking with a couple of army buddies yesterday and

8
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: pretty hungover right now. Anyone that this audience may be

9
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: familiar with, No, just one guy I know from Colombia

10
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: and another guy uh I met. He actually worked or

11
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: used to work for a news agency. But um, both

12
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: really good guys. We we're wearing an offensive T shirts. No, No,

13
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: I wasn't, so I should say in studio with us.

14
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: First goal for the first time and Andrew Andrew, Well, cow,

15
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: who is really the reason that that I'm here? Yeah,

16
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: and Andrew would have me as a guest and Brandon

17
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: as a guest all the time on his show. And

18
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: that's you know how we met Andy and how he

19
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: came to meet you don't call him and that he

20
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: could get away with it. There's been guests before that

21
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: you've said, Well, it depends if somebody's just there's there's

22
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: two ways of doing it. There's one who somebody's thinking

23
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: that they're you know, we're comfortable enough to say. Then

24
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: there's that condescending Andy, you know, like you know the difference,

25
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: you know, the difference when somebody's doing it to be

26
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: condescending and when somebody's doing it because they're just they

27
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: think they've gotten into the comfort zone. I don't get mad.

28
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: It's you know, I remember Senator Jim de Mint calling

29
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: you Andy and and getting fine with you. It's fine. Which,

30
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: by the way, whether people like his politics or not,

31
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 1: super nice guy from when he's come on, like, I

32
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: don't think anybody could have a problem with that guy

33
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: personal even Dailish, even John Stewart said he was like

34
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: the nicest person. Yeah, he really was. Um. So for

35
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: those who don't know, I should at least give an

36
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: introduction if who Andrew is? Andrew the host of the

37
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 1: willcal Majority on Serious Sex and Patriot. Uh, you're going

38
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: to be hosting You're on show Will cow on CRC

39
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: up back on TV, which we'll get into. I guess

40
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: the first big announcement for this audience that you could

41
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: get into is that the software dot Com paywall is down,

42
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: which is yeah, UM, you know, the guys made the

43
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: decision to take it down. So we were a subscription

44
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: website for I mean we were we were open first

45
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: like what six months, eight months or something, went to

46
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: a pay subscription model, yeah, fairly quickly early on, and

47
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: so like the last five years or whatever, we've been

48
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: a subscriber website. UM. And now that's the paywall is

49
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: taken down. Anybody can go read anything on the website. UM.

50
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: So it's wide open, and you know, hopefully that helps

51
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: get the word out more and more people will be

52
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: able to read UM. You still have to be subscribed

53
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: to uh, make comments on the website, UM access some

54
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: of the other functionality of the website. UM. The people

55
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: who are existing subscribers, they're gonna get you know, like

56
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: UM free upgrade. They're gonna become like the premium membership

57
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: we have and all that. They're gonna go into that automatically.

58
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: And I don't I hope on not speaking out of turn,

59
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: but I believe they're going to have access to softwarep

60
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: TV as well. That's that's going to be part of

61
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: the part of the deal that we're gonna grandfather all

62
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: the existing subscriber subscribers into Yeah. I think with the

63
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: success of Create Club, it's allowed us to have more

64
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: free content than we originally did because we know, for

65
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: a while it was like we were trying to figure

66
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 1: out how to make the podcast profitable and we to

67
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: pay wall for that and to pay wall for the website.

68
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: And now it's like Create Club has allowed us to

69
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: do that. So it's all this free content. And if

70
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: you really want to support the writers, I would say,

71
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: more than anything, subscribe to Create Club because that's the

72
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: business as a whole, and and pow, we're getting revenue. Yeah.

73
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's no what it's really figured out this

74
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 1: whole media thing, and it's changing so much that what's

75
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: the what's the model to use? And you know we're

76
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: doing we were just media, we were just news, but

77
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: now we're you doing also products and that's helping to

78
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: pay the bills. Well, you know, it's funny. When I

79
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: first went to Sirius in two thousand and six, Um,

80
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: you know, I was just a weekend guy on w

81
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: ABC here in New York City and I was full

82
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: time upstate New York w g Y, and I had

83
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: people say no one's gonna pay for radio, No one's

84
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: no one's gonna pay for that. And it was funny

85
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: that the people that were sure nobody would pay for radio,

86
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: we're probably also sure that nobody would pay for television. Right.

87
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: And as the radio industry added more and more inventory

88
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: and the commercial breaks got the six seven minutes long

89
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: you know, when you're when you're at when you're looking

90
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: at a minor league subscription fee annually, when you break

91
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: it out over twelve months to not have you know,

92
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: almost a half hour of your hours programming be commercials,

93
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: you know, and and and the the universe of bandwidth

94
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: that it opens, you know, you find that there are

95
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: people that after enough annoyance from from commercials, they don't

96
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: want to hear. It's amazing what they're willing to pay for. Yeah,

97
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: I mean it's uh, we we were very very fortunate.

98
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: I think that people paid to subscribe, paid to read because,

99
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: like you said, no, you know that it's a joke,

100
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: but people are on the ground floor of the military

101
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: independent journalism. I would say, you guys almost created it, right, Yeah,

102
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: in a in a sense, yeah, the idea that you know,

103
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: a journalist can also be a source I mean you're

104
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: bringing these kind of personal experiences to the table. Um.

105
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: I've always said that you and Brandon founded Nick show

106
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: like the perfect time. It was when he put out

107
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,799
Speaker 1: The Red Circle. There wasn't this saturation of Navy seal books.

108
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: It was kind of rare. There was Chris Kyle, there

109
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: was Brandon, not much else for modern day snipers and

110
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: that type of thing, and then there was the Bin

111
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: Laden shooting and there was this explosion of interest in

112
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: the special operations community. I think we we had a

113
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: lot of articles, a lot of content that no one

114
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 1: else had, and you know, people are willing to pay

115
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,559
Speaker 1: for that kind of thing. I think the problem only

116
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: issue we ran into and every run into is being

117
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: a special operations news website is that's a that's a niche.

118
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: You know, it's pretty small. It's smaller than even say

119
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: defense like we don't normally cover like the F thirty

120
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: five or like Navy ships, you know, so it's even

121
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: it's a niche within defense journalism. Um. So there could

122
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: be some scaling issues, of course, um, And I think

123
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: that was the only real difficulty we ran into. But

124
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: this will go into your TV show. One of the

125
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: things that I was going to mention, sorry, that's your phone,

126
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:45,119
Speaker 1: completely unprofessional. Uh, all right ahead this but this goes

127
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: into your TV show. As I can't make eye contact

128
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: with Andrew. Here is that I feel like less and

129
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: less you're gonna get it for you. There you go

130
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: to truly lie and as we've said, this is pirate,

131
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: there you go for um no. So with your TV show,

132
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: I feel like less and less people are subscribed to

133
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: the major cable companies. I can't tell you the last

134
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: time that I've, like, for an extended period of time

135
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: watched whether it's CNN, MSNBC or Fox News, I get

136
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, I get pretty much all of my

137
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: news from alternative sources. And I think that there's, you know,

138
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: for what you're doing with CRTV, there's a conservative audience

139
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: that wants to hear what you're up to with Stephen

140
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: Crowder is up to and what Michelle Malkin is reporting

141
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: on and not have to have it filtered through these

142
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: you know. One of the problems too, is like when

143
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: you're on Fox News or CNN, which you've been on,

144
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: you literally have two minutes there to get out whatever

145
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: you want. One intelligent comment, and you did a pretty

146
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: good job. But you know what's you know, I'll address this.

147
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: This is the part where I'm supposed to say, well,

148
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 1: this is because of the cord cutters. You know, when

149
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: the networks complain about chord cutting cord. I don't believe

150
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: that there's a phenomena of cord cutting. I believe there's

151
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: a phenomena of bad programming. And that I think when

152
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: you when when networks want to say a, people are

153
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: cutting the chords. There that's their excuse for some of

154
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: the stale programming. And that instead of saying to their

155
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: their network higher ups, or or their their parent company

156
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: or even their board of directors and investors that we

157
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: have to get creative, they said, well, it's just a

158
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: trend people, a chord cutting. Well, I think if you're

159
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 1: putting on good programming, especially in a country with three

160
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: people and this this internet environment where the gatekeepers and

161
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: their walls have kind of come down, that if you're

162
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: putting on good programming, good programming has an audience. It

163
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if it's a m FM, Serius accent podcasting,

164
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if it's satellite, cable or or new

165
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: media Roku or whatever it is. I think if you're

166
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: doing a good program that an audience has been looking for.

167
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna they're it's it's a match. Yeah. But one

168
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: thing is if you if if I have a Roku box,

169
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: right and I just want to watch Andrew Wilco on

170
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: see our TV, I can do that as opposed to

171
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: paying like one to two hundred dollars for this big

172
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: subscription when most people are watching what two or three

173
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: channels regularly. You know. So I think that I do

174
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: think the cord cutting plays into that, is that people

175
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: don't want to be subspoken. But again their cord cutting

176
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: because what's on the cord is not what they want.

177
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: There there is that, I mean, there is also there

178
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: is also you know, there are some people, many people

179
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: are creatures of habit that it's what's on TV. Right,

180
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: they turn on their television. And that's that's a generational

181
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: thing too. Though these young people they're not going to

182
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: the TV. That's well, you know, Brandon said that just recently.

183
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: He was saying that he took a long skiing trip

184
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: with his three kids, you know, who are various age groups,

185
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: and he's like, they didn't look at the TV once

186
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: they The one thing they said is like the WiFi

187
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: sucks here. Yeah, I mean I was staying in hotels

188
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: all the time when I was doing this TV show,

189
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: And I mean I think TV show an actual TV show.

190
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: And this is the funny thing about it. Yeah, I'm

191
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: on TV and I tell people, I'm like, I can't

192
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: even watch this thing because I don't have cable television. Um.

193
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: And but it's funny because I don't turn the television on.

194
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,599
Speaker 1: I mean, I'd rather just watch videos on YouTube or

195
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: something like that then watch television or watch Facebook live.

196
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 1: The the opportunities for people who have been who are

197
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: not the networks type. You know, this is the opportunity

198
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: that if you're not the network type for whatever that

199
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: whatever reason that is, they don't think you're pretty enough,

200
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 1: or they don't think you're pretty enough that you know

201
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: that that that that whatever their standards are for sort

202
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: of I guess television perfection if people are looking for

203
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: more than that. Now I'm not saying I'm not a

204
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: handsome guy, because I am. Um, but you know this

205
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 1: is this is like bands who didn't get played on

206
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 1: the radio or ignored by MTV. You know, it's kind

207
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: of funny. You look at a band like Metallica that

208
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 1: was ignored by radio, largely ignored by MTV. They finally

209
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: agreed to put out a video. Now the world came

210
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: to them. So you know, the industry is going to

211
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: have to at some points say, Okay, what did we overlook?

212
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: Who did we miss here? Who's getting popular out there?

213
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: And then we're gonna have to do But believe it

214
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 1: or not, CRTV has actually kind of taking that model.

215
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: They've looked around at some of the biggest conservative faces

216
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: on YouTube like Stephen Crowder and said, how do we

217
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: bring that to us and make it a part of

218
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: what we're doing? The same thing for for Ali Stucky

219
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: and a few others. Isn't that like Frank Zappa said

220
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: something like that. Back in the day, He's like, you know,

221
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: when you had these fat cat business executives working at

222
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: record labels, they didn't know what was cool, so they

223
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: would take a chance on somebody. But he said, you know,

224
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: then what happened was all these hippies came in. They

225
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: took over the record labels, and they thought they knew

226
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: what was cool. They thought they knew what kids wanted,

227
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: and they wouldn't take any risks because it was very

228
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: narrow of what they thought. And then in the late

229
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: seventies you had the punk explosion, so you know, and

230
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: then the record company started signing up. You know, you

231
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: saw that with Nirvana. Nirvana got signed and all of

232
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: a sudden it was like five thousand grunge bands. Uh.

233
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: But yes, I think the networks and I'm not trash

234
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: talking any of the networks because I want to go

235
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: on them. It's see you twice, um that I think

236
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: when it when it comes to their next evolution of

237
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: of programming, they're gonna be forced to look at the

238
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: metrics of what no different than someone saying what's hot

239
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: in the clubs right now? Right what's hot in the clubs?

240
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: There are bands, there are DJs. There, there's something out

241
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: there that's not on the radio and it's not under

242
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: contract with the record company, and they have to go

243
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 1: out and get it. Well, when that time comes, they're

244
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: gonna be networks like CRTV, like Software Radio, like whatever

245
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: it is that have been putting on popular programming, and

246
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna say we want that, we we want to

247
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: we we want to add it, we want to buy it,

248
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: we want to partner with it, we we we need it.

249
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: Because whatever we're doing is causing is still causing people

250
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: to cut the chord and go this way. It seems

251
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: like these networks have these like corporate committees that just

252
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: fresh everything though. I mean, if you watch Netflix, it

253
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: seems like they give a lot of creative freedom to

254
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: people and that's why they have these very good television

255
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: shows on Netflix, and by comparisons, stuff on cable TV

256
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: just seems so pedestrian. Well, you know, it's funny is

257
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: that you get that's like death ray. I mean, I'm

258
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: just being frank about it. You know, well, you know

259
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: what's funny is that And still and still, this is

260
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: the one thing I hang my head on with with

261
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: serious x M is there's still taking risks putting on channels,

262
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: putting on people that probably had no chance at AM

263
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: and FM, you know, and and and that's the guy

264
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: that I they brought me in from from AM talk

265
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: and and put me on. But they've put on a

266
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: lot of people that you know, probably if it was

267
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: just you know, to competing news talk radio stations, are

268
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: two competing sports programming or you know your heritage classic

269
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: rock and new rock station, probably you know they're there,

270
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: We're putting on people that probably if the program doctor

271
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: didn't like you, like in the movie Airheads, Like I

272
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: read the trades, you know that they're putting on people

273
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: that probably in in a more controlled radio environment, might

274
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: not have got on the air. Well. Speaking on this subject,

275
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: I mean, tell us about your TV show. How what's

276
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: it gonna be? How how are you going to draw

277
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: people in? I had another TV show at a and

278
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: you know, it was going fine for a while and

279
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: something's happened. Um, not here to address those things, but

280
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: the show. The show went away very unceremoniously. And this company,

281
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: It's funny. I was contacted by the people who were

282
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: building the infrastructure for this company. I think it was

283
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: the day or two days after I lost that TV show.

284
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: I get a call and, uh, the guy on the

285
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: other line says, Hi, you don't know me, but I'm

286
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: I'm starting up my own, my own network. And I

287
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: was like, okay, I've I've been through this before. And

288
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: and we started talking, and UM, you know, I wasn't

289
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: sure what I that I wanted to leave Sirius x M.

290
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: I didn't know what I wanted to do next. And

291
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: they started, they started laying their groundwork and Their first

292
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: big sign was was Mark Levine, which I think was

293
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: a really good UM choice given that you look at

294
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: how many people are locked up in the business, whether

295
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: on radio and have a TV side gig. He was

296
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, the one that was available with

297
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: a really big platform following to build on. And we

298
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: shot a pilot last year UM in a studio they

299
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: had they had up in Vermont, And if I remember correctly,

300
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: Brandon was on right and actually and and we actually

301
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: did we actually did a a segment that never actually ed.

302
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: We did this really cool thing about how the politicians

303
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: have gotten so comfortable just saying well, special operations, right,

304
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: It's like, well, you can't just shake the Special Operation

305
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: Stree in North Korea. It's a different animal. It's it's

306
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: you know, and and Brandon and and in the general

307
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: we're in agreement that this was not bring back our girls.

308
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: This is not Syria, This was not an insurgency we

309
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: were dealing with. This wasn't a symmetrical warfare. This was

310
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: the threat of a nuclear you know, showdown in an

311
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: isolated country. And I remember when we shot the segment,

312
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,479
Speaker 1: like God, why we should be able to air this,

313
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 1: like this is this is good stuff. But what they

314
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: were doing was they were bringing in people and kind

315
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: of kind of throwing them against the wall, giving them

316
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: a time to do a a demo or or a pilot.

317
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: And out of that they picked mine and and you know,

318
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: like our studios are gonna be literally one block from you.

319
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: Guys were literally up the block here, Yeah, up the block,

320
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: and um, you know the studio spaces obviously down here

321
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: a much smaller we're gonna have. It's it's a startup,

322
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: it's a it's a new enterprise. Um. But I think

323
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: the content is going to be similar to the old

324
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: TV show. But what they want, and I think this

325
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: is kind of smart. They want something that feels like

326
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: that network show but doesn't take an hour to get to.

327
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: So whereas I was doing probably seven or eight minute monologue,

328
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: are probably gonna be doing two minutes, which I should add,

329
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: unlike network TV shows, you wrote the entire Yeah that

330
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: when I was working with you, you know, like you

331
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: were spending an insane amount of time writing these monologues,

332
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: doing the radio show, going to do the TV show

333
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 1: because you refused to do with these other networks. Do

334
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: where you read something that your producers read well, and

335
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: to to to credit people who are good at reading prompter.

336
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: I have friends in the business, and I have a

337
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: friend who's a local newscaster, and he's like, some people

338
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: could own the prompter and some people can't. And when

339
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: I started doing the TV show, I had literally never

340
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: read a teleprompter before, and I thought, Okay, when you're

341
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 1: reading lines, it sounds like you're reading lines. Yeah. Well,

342
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 1: but but some people are good at making it, really

343
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 1: owning it. And I didn't think I had that talent.

344
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: But I knew if I wrote it, if something went

345
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: wrong or I had to look away for a second,

346
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: I wanted. I knew if I wrote it, nothing can

347
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: go wrong because I wrote it. And you know, when

348
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: we first started that show, we had a very young staff,

349
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,959
Speaker 1: very passionate staff, great bunch of young people. But I

350
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: remember there would be times when there would be an

351
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: intro and somebody would just say sergeant. I would say, well,

352
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: master sergeant, sergeant for first class sergeant what or referring

353
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: to marines as soldiers. And it was no fault. It

354
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: was ay. We were a very small staff, were always rushed.

355
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: One of the things I had to I had to

356
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 1: kind of take back from that was knowing you guys,

357
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: and and and respect that I have for the military,

358
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: was if we were gonna intro a military guests, we

359
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: had to get it right. You know. We always had

360
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: to make sure we got it right. If it was

361
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,479
Speaker 1: we couldn't just say, well was it fifth Special Forces

362
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: Group or seven Special Forces Group? There's a difference, you know,

363
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. And the writing became very natural

364
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 1: to me because I, again it was my relationship with

365
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: with doing the show, but I didn't have the experience

366
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: of so many other people that are just organically good

367
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: at reading prompt So I thought, know, if you want

368
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: something done right, you better do it yourself. And that's

369
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: not to insult any of the people that you both

370
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: know that worked on my show. It was that we

371
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: were all inexperience and I felt that too. To succeed,

372
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: I couldn't read other people's words. So what's the show

373
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,239
Speaker 1: going to be about? What's the format going to look like?

374
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: It's it's it's gonna look like a news program. It's

375
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: very nice studio. I think we're gonna have shortened monologues

376
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: and get right to the point with guests. They've hired

377
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: a great stable of really mostly young conservatives um and Crowder,

378
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: Stephen Crowder. You have also Gavin McGinness is a little

379
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: to than me, say young, one of the co founders

380
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: of Vice News. They have a really eclectic group of people,

381
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: from social conservatives like Steve D's to libertarians like Matt Kibbey.

382
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: So it's it's not gonna be stodgy conservative, it's not

383
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 1: going to be full on libertarian, but you're gonna get that.

384
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: You're gonna get everything from the social conservative of side

385
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 1: to the libertarian side. And I think I think libertarians

386
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: mostly get kind of left out a lot from from

387
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: you know, the sort of right left paradigm. Libertarians offer

388
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 1: something that's that's kind of neither right nor left. It's

389
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: more um, you know, airing on the side of limited government.

390
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: So I think that's gonna be a big thrust. Is

391
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: kind of filling in where some of the networks have

392
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: kind of ignored certain personalities and and and streams of consciousness,

393
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: especially libertarian. That's what we're gonna be looking for. It's

394
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: interesting to see how libertarians have gotten a bad name

395
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: too over I noticed this trend just really over the

396
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 1: last couple of years really, and I think libertarians have

397
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: to own a little bit of it because um some

398
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 1: went down that whole anarcho capitalism road, Uh so okay,

399
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: or or that that they were very bad diplomats for

400
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: their belief system because it was almost it was almost

401
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: as smug as liberalism could be. Sometimes that if if

402
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: you don't know everything that I already believe, I don't

403
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: have time to walk you through it. And if you're

404
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: not with Ron Paul get Away, many of us, many

405
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: of the audience that just say said that about the

406
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 1: guy we had on he was running for president Austin

407
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: very like, I'll be honest, came off as very arrogant

408
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: with us at times when when he said to me,

409
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: I remember that. The part that that that rings out

410
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: to me and I've heard I've seen people tweet me

411
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: about it was when he said basically, we don't need

412
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: a border patrol, and I was like, well, then how

413
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: would you protect you know, the border that that's why

414
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: we have it back to that and everything should freely

415
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: flow with their Second Amendment right could protect the border,

416
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: Like that's really what you want? You want? And yeah,

417
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 1: so as I wear my border patrol. Had he's been

418
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 1: on your show too, but I think he had that

419
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: libertarian like arrogance. And I'm a libertarian, you know, like

420
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: lawless countries are not a fun place. Well, and and

421
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: what the problem A lot of problems with libertarians is

422
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: on a there's no kind of half measure, like why

423
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 1: isn't the fire department privatized? You know, it's okay? And

424
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: I get I get the argument. I've read my lout Rock, well,

425
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: my Mariy Lot, Mariy Rothbar just for good measure. But

426
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: you think most voters think the biggest problem with their

427
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 1: government department, you know, like you guys, you gotta you

428
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: gotta pick some more obvious targets. And the problem with

429
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 1: with libertarians sometimes and it's not all libertarians, um, is

430
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,239
Speaker 1: they are almost as absolutist on the whole, you know,

431
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 1: taking a whole ideology. And can you see that a

432
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: lot with with progressives that if you aren't a pro

433
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: trans vegan, uh, then you're a nazi, right, you're right

434
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: if you're not, if you're not all checking all these

435
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 1: boxes all at once. And I think I think libertarians

436
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: have great ideas, but they also have to be willing

437
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: to share them with people who don't really understand them.

438
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 1: And I think you once you to explain why you

439
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: believe what you believe. If you're a libertarian, yeah, the

440
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: government should be out of marriage. Okay, good, Yeah, and

441
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 1: understand that we have a democracy and it's going to

442
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: be a blending of ideas between different boy, it's never

443
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: gonna be a pure ideological government. I don't know we

444
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: want an ideological government. I just want a government things

445
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: like me. Well, that's that's everybody, isn't it going into

446
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: you know what? When you were saying what the TV

447
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: show is going to be about? I think that's the

448
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: cool thing that you always break down these political philosophies,

449
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 1: like the origin of them, the writers who started them.

450
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 1: Like I know you're big on Boss Stiat and all

451
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: this stuff, and Jack and I have said on the

452
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: podcast really often like you turn on network news and

453
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 1: it's all their commentary on what Trump tweeted, and you're like,

454
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: I could go to Twitter and I could read Donald

455
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: Trump's twitter. I don't need you to give you know,

456
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: a twenty minute break. Then that's why pros and cons

457
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: what you were talking about about, why people aren't tuning

458
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: into television because why do I need to see somebody

459
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: on television. Tell me what Trump tweeted. We we can

460
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: go there and read how dumb he looks ourselves. I mean,

461
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: we can see it. I actually like a lot of

462
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 1: his tweet. But that's a separate argument for a separate day.

463
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: One of the things I get to do also is

464
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: and you guys are down the block, is I like

465
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: that in depth variance military journalism? You know this? I

466
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 1: mean I want to. I want to hear those stories.

467
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to just be like are

468
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: we launching a missile or or were not? I want

469
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: the nuances. I think. I think the audience is going

470
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: to come to this program and it's go, oh, these

471
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: guys have been there, done that, and their opinions are

472
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: based on their experiences. And it's not just this surface

473
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 1: level d o J bureaucrat, foreign policy bureaucrat, academic bureaucrat,

474
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: uh sort of opinion. It's like, hey, I put boots

475
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: on the ground here, this is a bad idea, or yeah,

476
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 1: we could accomplish this, but you know it's gonna have

477
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: to have political will. It's not just the the UM

478
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 1: network contributor who you know is saying what the network

479
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: chieftains want them to say, which I again, I'm never

480
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: privy to the stuff. I would rather sit down with

481
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: you or Brandon or whoever. And all right, guys, you know,

482
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 1: even if it's not your area expertise, I mean, like

483
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, maybe launching nuclear missiles is not you have

484
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 1: experience with, but I still respect your opinion on it

485
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: because you know, special operations pretty much as always at

486
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: the four of all these things, and I want those

487
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 1: special operation guests to give me their experience based opinion.

488
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: So would you have some ideas as far as uh

489
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 1: kind of topics to cover? I mean, you mentioned La Nicola, Tesla,

490
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: was was there a death ray? Yes, a lot of

491
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: the stuff that we're gonna be doing. Um. You know,

492
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: obviously people have their opinions on Trump, but when you

493
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: get past the tweets and the Democrats being apoplectic, you

494
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: take an example like DOCTA. Whether you agree or disagree

495
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 1: with DACA, the fact that he said this is an

496
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 1: executive order that never should have been written. The job

497
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: of Congress. You know, if you cut through, If you

498
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: cut through, I guess what excites some people and get

499
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: to was it constitutional for him to push it back

500
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: to the Congress? Absolutely, and we're I think we're gonna

501
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 1: be doing more of that than spending time on what

502
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: the president tweeted, Um, who's angry at him for tweeting it? Um?

503
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: You know, the social media part of it. Yeah, I mean,

504
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: I guess if we're forced to cover. But I think

505
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna go more into policy and the constitution. And

506
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: it seems like there's a lot of folks out there

507
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: who needs some help with like basic civics, like how

508
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: your government works, and see people getting so angry about stuff,

509
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,239
Speaker 1: and like you realize, you know, the president doesn't have

510
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: that big of a role to play with the economy especially.

511
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not well, you know, we always say this,

512
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 1: and I know that conservatives get accused of being, um,

513
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: I guess, conspiratorial with public education. But when you look

514
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: at public education, what's the incentive of government run education

515
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: to teach you about the limits of government? Because you

516
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: might go, well, then why am I in a government classroom?

517
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: It doesn't say anything about that in the Constitution. I

518
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:59,439
Speaker 1: think we have, for political purposes, dumbed down our teaching

519
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: of civics and made it more about what is the

520
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: greater good? Who's trying to achieve a better, a better

521
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: tomorrow for this, rather than saying is the government good

522
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 1: at this? And should they continue doing this? Where is

523
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: the government belong? Where doesn't it belong? Where the states belong,

524
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: where the cities belong, Where to you know, where the

525
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: charities belong. I think we've we've been taught to believe

526
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: that our president is supposed to be are our moral

527
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: lord and savior. And you know, our president is not

528
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,439
Speaker 1: supposed to be our moral lord and savior. We're not

529
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: a king, is not a king, and we shouldn't treat

530
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 1: him like a king. And you know the scary thing

531
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: is is that when you when you look at the way,

532
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: and I'll make this my conservative complaint that the Democrats

533
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: kind of thought that Barack Obama should be unleashed to

534
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: do all these good things, and then as soon as

535
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: Donald Trump became president, Well, we have a constitution and

536
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: president no, no no, no, no no, either we are consistent in

537
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: the limits of the executive branch and the judicial branch

538
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,959
Speaker 1: and the legislative branch. Or we are opening ourselves up

539
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: to a sort of un anarchy that well, the Supreme

540
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: Court said so, well, are they empowered to say so? Well,

541
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: they're Supreme Well, that's not what it says an article.

542
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: I know you've seen the meme, uh you know when

543
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: liberals and they've told me this too. I'm sure you've

544
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: heard it where they say, look, we don't need the

545
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: Second Amendment anymore, like we're never gonna have this authoritarian,

546
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: dictatorial government. You know, there's no need for the second

547
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: elected trumpet they right now under under Barack Obama states

548
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: right to equal racism. And as soon as Donald Trump

549
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: got elected, it's California threatened to secede. So it's like

550
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: it's kind of like it's it is that kind of

551
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: crazy today. I like it tomorrow. I don't kind of

552
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 1: thing and separate from from from libertarians. I think constitutional conservatives,

553
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: you know, whereas I have my personal opinions on social issues.

554
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: But I go, yeah, it's not in the constitution, so

555
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: really it's not for government. And I think one thing

556
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: that we're going to try to do and I I

557
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: will lay this blame on on liberals. Liberals don't separate

558
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: their opinions from government if they believe it it's government right.

559
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: Whereas everyone has emotions place I, as a constitutional conservative, say,

560
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: do I believe in traditional marriage? Yes? Do I believe

561
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: it's the cornerstone for society. Yes. Do I think it's

562
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: the base best way to raise a child? Yes? Do

563
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: I think the government should be involved? No? And I

564
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: think that's a hard full stop for a lot of

565
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: people to make that when they capture the whims of

566
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: the wheels of power, like what can I what of

567
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: my personal agenda can I can? I can I place

568
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: upon the society? And as a constitutional conservative, I like

569
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: that full stop that you can have your opinions, you

570
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: can live your way. You could say your freedom to

571
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: be you include my freedom to be free from you

572
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: don't want to bake you a cake or bake me

573
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 1: an f and cake or whichever cake you want baked. Um.

574
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: But I think the full stop has to come is

575
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: does the government need to be here? And you know,

576
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: if you're being honest with yourself, sometimes you know the

577
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: government does belong. There's there's an interesting conversation there too

578
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: about the whole nature of freedom and when you give

579
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: people freedom, they're also going to do stupid things. But

580
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: that but see that, But I am, well, I am

581
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: one of these people, Like right right now we're debating

582
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: pot laws and the Tenth Amendment, doesn't say one word

583
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: about the marriage. I wanna government regulating what we put

584
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,239
Speaker 1: in our bodies. People say, well, if we didn't have

585
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: an FDA, well, you know, maybe we should inspect coming

586
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: in from foreign countries, find that's cross border you know, dealings.

587
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: But as far as whether or not the federal government

588
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: should tell people they should should or should not smoke marijuana,

589
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: as someone who doesn't smoke marijuana isn't gonna smoke marijuana

590
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: is in a state where it's gonna be legal real soon,

591
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: not gonna change my my use of it. You want

592
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: to drink raw milk, knock yourself out, knock yourself out,

593
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: that's that's up to you. You want to raise your

594
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: kids to believe this debt of the other thing, go

595
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: right ahead. Yeah, all of these things, uh, you know,

596
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: with the freedom of speech, the right to bear arms,

597
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: they have negative consequences also. But I think it's like socially,

598
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: it's a question of if we accept this, we we

599
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,959
Speaker 1: accept the trade off. Essentially. Now you give people freedom,

600
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: some people are gonna do dumb things with it. They're

601
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: gonna hurt each other, but they're gonna do that. But

602
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: we we've also I think we've proven without a shadow

603
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: of a doubt that the law doesn't always protect us,

604
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: or we wouldn't be talking about tide pod challenges right now,

605
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: you know. And and I joked on Twitter, I said,

606
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: here's a tide pod challenge from millennials. Do your own laundry.

607
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: But but if somebody's gonna put a tide pot in

608
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: their mouth, But how does the government stop that from happening? Yeah,

609
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: you can't stop people from being dumb. You are right,

610
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: even if the mornings right there, Yeah, shouldn't eat that

611
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: and it's going right, you know. I mean, even even

612
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: even with a mechanized law that is supposed to prevent

613
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: us from doing harm to ourselves, people will find a

614
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,479
Speaker 1: way to do harm to themselves. And you know there

615
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: are old sayings about dangerous freedoms. Well, yeah, freedom is freedom.

616
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: Freedom is Dane dress. It's unpredictable, it it's it's it's

617
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: hard to account for. And I think that scares people

618
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: in in certain functions of government that well, what if

619
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: we can't control people. Well, we're not talking about opening

620
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: ourselves up to the waste land of the road Warrior,

621
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: but you know, I think when the government meddles too much,

622
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: you know when the government treats people like children and

623
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: wonders why they can't make good decisions. Yeah, just just

624
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 1: to reset here since we are doing the live stream,

625
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: we're here with Andrew will Cow hosted the willcal Majority,

626
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: guy I worked with for probably like seven years about

627
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: something like that until I never yelled at him once. Yeah,

628
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: that's probably true. Yeah, it's absolutely We always got along

629
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: very well. Don't want anybody, Yeah, no, we get along

631
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 1: passionate voice, but I don't really yell. Yeah, So I

632
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,800

Speaker 1: make a minimum twenty dollar donation to get your T shirt.

679
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: And I'll say nobody made the minimum twenty dollar donation.

680
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,879
Speaker 1: I mean people, we we had one guy donate five

681
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 1: grand for one T shirt, and you know, it was

682
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,839
Speaker 1: it was amazing the passion of these these guys. Some

683
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: of them were cops, some of them were firefighters, many

684
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: of them were veterans themselves. Uh, just for a little record.

685
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 1: Del Gotto pulled his bike up right as the riders

686
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: were coming in. Del Gotto jumps on his bike and

687
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: just goes, hey, I'm here, like like he just wrote

688
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: out in front. And we had all these guys and

689
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: we were We put an order form up on the

690
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: internet and people were mailing money to my merch provider, mailing.

691
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: He said to me, called me be goes. I can't

692
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: believe in this day and age of PayPal, people are

693
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: handwriting one check for a donation and then handwriting another

694
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 1: check for the shipping and handling for the shirt. And

695
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,360
Speaker 1: when when, even when we were done, money was still

696
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 1: pouring in from people who didn't no matter what they don't,

697
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 1: they just wanted. It wasn't even about the shirt, which

698
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 1: was a pretty cool shirt, but they wanted to donate

699
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 1: to these charities. Because what we were doing was one

700
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: direct giving. We didn't set up an H five or

701
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,439
Speaker 1: one C three. We didn't hire an administrator, we didn't

702
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: hire an accountant. Basically, what we asked on the order forms,

703
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,280
Speaker 1: you picked one of six charities or donate to all six.

704
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 1: You write the check directly to them, We mail you

705
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: the shirt, and we give the check to the charity.

706
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: So when Stop Soldiers Suicide sold up, I handed them

707
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: a stack of checks and I remember saying, I don't

708
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 1: know if it was from from the from Red Circle

709
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: of Stops Solder Suicide. They're looking all these checks and go, hey,

710
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: that's a good problem to have, right Well, I was like,

711
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: what about me? Because I was the only one who

712
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: even knew anyone from Red Circle Foundation other than Drew

713
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: d Wire. I have nothing to do with the foundation,

714
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: and you get you gave me the envelope of like

715
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: all this cash and checks. I think I went on

716
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: the train with like how much would it have been?

717
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: It's like five thou dollars December five? What do I

718
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: do with this? Separate five fund was a late addition

719
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 1: because we got to meet J. W. Cortez, who plays

720
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 1: Detective Alvarez on the Fox show Gotham. So they were

721
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: very late additions. We didn't raise as much money for them, um,

722
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: but each of the other five charities got a little

723
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: over five thousand each, and I think it was like

724
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,479
Speaker 1: about a thousand for Semper five. I'm sorry I didn't

725
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: make it this year. We'll get you next. I was

726
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: doing the TV stuff and Emmett is always great, we

727
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: should say, if anybody's ever in the area and once separate,

728
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: like you know, in a vast amount of liberalism, we

729
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: were talking about. The Socialist Workers Party is like down

730
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 1: the block. You know that it's four doors down from you.

731
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: They have a red star on a banner out there

732
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: that's the second floor is the Socialist Workers Party Holy ship.

733
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, my my point, yeah, maybe you should do

734
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: some investigative investigative work there. But yeah, my point being

735
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: like in this city, Emmett is a very proud supporter

736
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: of veterans, a proud openly conservative guy has you know,

737
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: everything from your stickers to at with shrug posters on

738
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: the Tonto signed books to brand the branded web sandwich

739
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: I think. And yeah, so he's just a great guy.

740
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 1: I would recommend people. But we're already planning VET Ride

741
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: eighteen because and we figured it out, like you know,

742
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: the reason why we're gonna do it this year's because

743
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: it fell out on a Saturday, and next year it

744
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: falls out on a Sunday, and it's probably gonna be

745
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: a few calendar years before we have a weekend to

746
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,280
Speaker 1: do it again. So we've already got our parade permits

747
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,919
Speaker 1: foreen for this year. We've already got the go ahead

748
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: from Serious Action, we already got the go ahead from Emmett.

749
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,240
Speaker 1: We already got the charities ready to line up again.

750
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: And I mean this year was it was difficult because

751
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: there was such a crush of people that I was

752
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 1: so distracted on the year. It was hard to get

753
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: our guests. People want one. I'm right in the middle

754
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,320
Speaker 1: of the broadcast. One guy walked ocau, Hey, how do

755
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 1: I get a T shirt? I'm like over there, over there,

756
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 1: you know, So I think we're gonna set up the

757
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: T shirt and merch table. We had one of the

758
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: where the ride up began at Tremont and Harley in

759
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 1: New Jersey, and then we had another one at Emmett's,

760
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: and they decided to put it like kind of next

761
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: to the broadcast with them like, I think we're gonna

762
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: have to separate things and be able to get our

763
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 1: guests in and out much quicker. But NYPD, I mean they,

764
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 1: I mean, we had Jersey State troopers taken the writers

765
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 1: from New Jersey to the Lincoln Tunnel and n y

766
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: p D picked them up. And when you stand there

767
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 1: on a street and a hundred Harley's in a column

768
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: are coming. First of all, it's loud, and it was

769
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: just it was an incredible, incredible day that we to

770
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: raise that kind of money. So yeah, throughout the year

771
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: I worked with Rick, I I donate money. I don't

772
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: brag about it, um, but yeah, to be able to

773
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: send him about six grand or whatever it was, you know,

774
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: for operations, chillout, that's life changing money. If you don't

775
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: know what to do for homeless veterans, right, yeah, they

776
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: they get they work with a network of homeless shelters

777
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 1: and if they get a call or they get they

778
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: get a veteran who was arrested for a petty you know,

779
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 1: kind of like if there's a homeless veteran who basically

780
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 1: gets himself arrested to get a little shell there, the

781
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: police will call them or the homeless shelter will call them,

782
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: and they will come with a backpack of supplies immediately,

783
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: which they keep backpacks with socks, shoes, underwear, change all

784
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 1: kinds of you know, toiletries, and then they get them

785
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 1: into a halfway house and then they try to get

786
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: him a job. I'm gonna I'm gonna take some questions

787
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 1: from the audience at that point, because I know that

788
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: there's a ton of them coming in. People want to

789
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 1: ask Andrew stuff. I always try to get them in

790
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: and they're always like, you know, be interactive here because

791
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 1: that's why we do Facebook Live. But UM, I'll look

792
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 1: through them. I'm the only one here with the computer

793
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 1: near me. But I did want to ask you about

794
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: um just because I haven't been there with your show

795
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: every day. I actually do tune in when I can.

796
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: What's like the biggest story that the media is avoiding,

797
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: DOCA avoiding, Because what I was gonna say is that,

798
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: for example, when I worked on your show, I remember

799
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 1: you were talking about the Uranium one deal with Hillary

800
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,799
Speaker 1: Quentin long before the media was, and you were talking

801
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: about it every single day. So I'm just wondering, like,

802
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: what are they not covering that you think they need to. Well,

803
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,320
Speaker 1: it's funny that the bigger excuse now is that John

804
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 1: Solomon at the Hill has been doing amazing reporting on

805
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: some of these these this Uranium one, the money that

806
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: was flowing people who have been indicted, um, most notably

807
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: one of these trucking company executives who was working with

808
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: the Clintons. It's amazing to me how they want to

809
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:27,720
Speaker 1: prosecute everything Donald Trump says, any accusation from the past.

810
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: And yet when you're like, yeah, okay, grabbin by the

811
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 1: P word, that probably wasn't the smartest thing for him

812
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: to say, but it was kind of said in you know,

813
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: just and not meant for public commentary. But you know,

814
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: if you had a Secretary of State and former president

815
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: who were working a deal to you know, sell not

816
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: for transfer for nuclear weapons. One of the biggest conspiracies

817
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 1: about this that we were trying to give the Russian's

818
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. They have nuclear weapons, they have all the

819
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,439
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons you know they could possibly but to give

820
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: them partial control of an energy market or a strategic

821
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: asset market was something that absolutely made no sense. And

822
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, it was the New York Times that when

823
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: conservatives got you know, backlash in the media for this

824
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 1: is like I was like, I'm reading this in the

825
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: New York Times. That story the story kind of came

826
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: and went, and you can't go, whoa hold on a second.

827
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: You do a whole piece about the Clintons taking a

828
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: hundred fifty million dollars leading up to this uranium deal,

829
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 1: and we're supposed to go yeah, moving on to something else.

830
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump tweeted, Andrew, can you break down the story

831
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. I know it's very complex, but I

832
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:35,720
Speaker 1: actually have not followed its. Starting in two thousand five,

833
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 1: Bill Clinton started working with a man named Frank Gistro

834
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 1: who was a Canadian kind of mining magnet. And he

835
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: was traveling with Gistra as he was expanding operations of

836
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 1: places like Uzbekistan, and I guess it was nice to

837
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: have the former president of the United States with Bill

838
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 1: Clinton played a big role in Kazakhstan and other countries.

839
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 1: On Kazakhstan, he helped open up that after he was

840
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 1: touring with Frank Gistra and some of these these mining

841
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: investors and they were securing, you know, big mining contracts,

842
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 1: and over the years, um, you know, there was this

843
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 1: this building relationship. And then when Hillary Clinton became Secretary

844
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 1: of State, a mass load of donations started coming into

845
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: the to the Clinton Foundation. And when they say nine

846
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: agencies had to sign off on this, yeah, but what

847
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 1: those other nine agencies didn't know that only the d

848
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: o J in the State Department apparently knew, was that

849
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:38,800
Speaker 1: the FBI was investigating some of these these mining operations

850
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 1: and the money that was flowing in, and then Peter

851
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 1: Schwitzer put out the book Clinton Cash, and then the

852
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 1: New York Times put out their piece in so, you know,

853
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot to do right here without me

854
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: kind of having notes in research in front of me.

855
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: But the the it was reminiscent of the Johnny Chung

856
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: Chinese missile Laurel Space and Communications deal, where you had

857
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 1: money coming in from high ranking Chinese officials. You had

858
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: money coming in from Bernard Schwartz and Laurel Space and Communications,

859
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, Bill Clinton kind of

860
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,359
Speaker 1: lifted sanctions on missile technology to China, and it was like, well,

861
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 1: did the money play a role in this? Now? You know,

862
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: you would have many in the media who would say, well,

863
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 1: we don't know if it played a role, want it um.

864
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 1: But when you're talking a hundred and fifty million dollars um,

865
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: you have to ask the question did it play a role?

866
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: It's so I mean, I think that's how the Clinton's

867
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 1: and the Clinton Foundation have always operated, that it's this

868
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 1: quid pro quo that they're very smart about how they

869
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: go about it, because it's hard to foundation, it's hard

870
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 1: to prove well, you know, you look at their actions

871
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: in haiti Um. We got to interview the former the

872
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 1: head of their parliament, not the not the prime minister,

873
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,280
Speaker 1: and he said that one of the things that Clinton's

874
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 1: wanted for for relief was to change the constitution about mining,

875
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: and Tony Rotten walked away with gold mining rights. So

876
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, and that's not not not anything I'm made

877
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 1: we're supposed to believe. It's all just a was just

878
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 1: a coincidence. And you know, look, I know that conservatives

879
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 1: get a bad rap for being kind of the vast

880
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: right wing conspiracy and we hate Hillary and all that stuff,

881
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: but there are some things that you know, as a

882
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: journalist or whoever, there are things that are worthy of

883
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 1: looking into. And what's what's bizarre is when I ping

884
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 1: off of a New York Times report, I take angles

885
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 1: because you hate the Clinton's It's in the New York Times.

886
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm not making this stuff up. It's in the Hill,

887
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: It's you know, it's in it's in Reuters of the

888
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: Associated Press. You always yeah, and I look, I have

889
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: I have rubbed people the wrong way with that. I

890
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 1: love my my brother in a bright bar, I love

891
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: my friends. A conservative review which I will be on

892
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: their TV platform. But I try to stay with the

893
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: Associated Press and Reuters and AFP and even use the

894
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,920
Speaker 1: New York Times in Washington Post because people can't, well,

895
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,879
Speaker 1: you're just getting that from the right wing blog? Is here?

896
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,439
Speaker 1: Is that the Washington Post? Because I mean the last

897
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 1: time I checked that wasn't you know that wasn't the

898
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 1: home of right wing thought. By the way, it would

899
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: be a funny thing that I just have to mention here.

900
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,360
Speaker 1: And I know you have no idea what he's up

901
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: to now, like most of us, But before Steve Bannon

902
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 1: was Steve Bannon, I just knew him as a guy

903
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: filled in for you A. Yeah, it was you know,

904
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 1: I've I've had people like, oh you and Bannon. I'm

905
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 1: like I had. I was around Bannon a couple of times.

906
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 1: There's the funny photograph that Mike will show you. He

907
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 1: was at Sea Pack and he was broadcasting and I

908
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: just kind of walked behind him when the cameras are

909
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,800
Speaker 1: there and started doing a yoga pose while he was

910
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 1: in the middle of some kind of thing. He didn't

911
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 1: even like seem to know I was there. And after

912
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 1: Sea Pack I saw him. He used to sit at

913
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,280
Speaker 1: this coffee house in the first floor of our building,

914
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 1: but there was very few interactions between myself and him.

915
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,399
Speaker 1: He was never in the office when I was there.

916
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: I never went to any of the bright Bar Embassy parties. Um,

917
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:55,359
Speaker 1: I kind of shy away from, you know, when we're

918
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 1: at the RNC or Sea Pack, the kind of after

919
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: parties that go on and sometimes go on too too

920
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: late into the night. I just kind of make my

921
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: way back to my hotel room. I have a few drinks,

922
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: you know, Mike, you guys, whoever. But I'm not I'm

923
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 1: not a scene a party scene person, so you know,

924
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: I don't I didn't really spend that much time with it.

925
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,359
Speaker 1: I just thought it was interesting because I don't think

926
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: any of us would have predicted that Stephen caban And

927
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: would be like one of the most famous men in America. Notorious. Yeah,

928
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,960
Speaker 1: I you know, I I gotta be honest. I didn't

929
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 1: see it coming either. Yeah. Um, So I'm looking at

930
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: the questions here. This is actually a good question that's

931
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 1: connected to what I just asked. But did Dale as

932
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: Linger watching on Facebook? We've what's the biggest national security

933
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 1: threat that the mainstream media isn't reporting? Both of you really,

934
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 1: But um, well, I I've said on I think it

935
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 1: was on your program or no, maybe it was. No,

936
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 1: it was on your program when you had a guest host. Um,

937
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 1: and I said China. And actually since that time, I

938
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 1: think the media has picked up on that story that

939
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: China is a revisionist power and a serious threat to

940
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 1: the United States. And I think that that's being covered

941
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 1: now a lot more than um than it was, you know, say,

942
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 1: two years ago. Well, I think one of the things

943
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 1: the media is ignoring, and we've had Gordon Shang on

944
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 1: about this. There was a story that was actually in

945
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 1: Chinese media that one of their test sites, I believe

946
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 1: the place when I want to try to pronounce this right,

947
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,879
Speaker 1: I don't want assault that it was pungi Ree they

948
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:30,800
Speaker 1: had a test fail that caused an avalanche, and Chinese

949
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 1: scientists were warning the Chinese government like, hey, maybe their

950
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:38,879
Speaker 1: safety standards aren't up to par. And I didn't see

951
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 1: much in the in the media about this that you know,

952
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 1: maybe it was time to kind of work with the

953
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 1: Chinese because if the North Koreans are ill equipped to

954
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 1: handle nuclear weapons, think about what a misfire would do.

955
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: E M P wise to China. So you know, given

956
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 1: that we have a trade relationship, their economy relies on

957
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 1: trade partners. Us be the trade partners, European trade partners.

958
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,840
Speaker 1: Let's try to use trade and the fact that the

959
00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: North Koreans might be not the best at handling this

960
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,760
Speaker 1: kind of stuff kind of like you know, like this, um,

961
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,800
Speaker 1: maybe we could encourage them to be better allies or

962
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 1: partners in dealing with North Korea because you know, potentially

963
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 1: if the North Koreans have a misdetonation, it would have

964
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,719
Speaker 1: effects for negative consequences for China. How about this Hawaii

965
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 1: uh fake the fake news? Yeah, that was crazy, Gary.

966
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:37,799
Speaker 1: I mean, imagine getting one of those that there's I

967
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: c b ms incoming. Yeah, especially you know, you imagine

968
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 1: it here people people get a text that Starbucks run

969
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:47,120
Speaker 1: in a pumpkin spice, you know, like it right, I

970
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 1: was saying, imagine that text was in Texas as opposed

971
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 1: to like Hawaii. I feel like people would be like

972
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 1: gearing up in the zombie apocalypse immediately, you know. I

973
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 1: I guess because I didn't get the text, some part

974
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 1: of me thinks that I would wait for confirmation, you know,

975
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: because my my wonder was you know, when people put

976
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 1: you in those you know, what would you do if

977
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: the plane was going down? Right? Well, what if the

978
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: plane didn't go down? What what if you thought you

979
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: were about to get hit with a nuclear weapon and

980
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,799
Speaker 1: you only had a half hour to live, But then

981
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: you don't get hit with a nuclear weapon. You know,

982
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,880
Speaker 1: It's like I have explained some explaining to the neighbors

983
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 1: to do you know, like what what did anyone act

984
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: on that? In this sort of like, hey, I got

985
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 1: a half hour to live? What do I do with

986
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 1: that half hour? And then the half hours up when

987
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 1: you're still there and they're they're broken a strip called Yeah,

988
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: that's gonna leave a mark. I wonder if there is

989
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,280
Speaker 1: that out there we saw putting people and you're putting

990
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,719
Speaker 1: kids in the sewer. I mean, I don't know I

991
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:55,240
Speaker 1: would want to believe that that you would you would

992
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: see that and go okay, I need I need more.

993
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 1: I didn't need more, I need more clarification here, like

994
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,800
Speaker 1: you know, um. It reminded me of the story that

995
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 1: you hear about war the worlds that when they announced

996
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 1: that alien invasion happened in New Jersey and people were

997
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 1: freaking out. I was like, hold a whole on a second. Yeah,

998
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,600
Speaker 1: I feel like culturally we've also been kind of desensitized

999
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 1: because like every time there's like a thunderstorm, you get

1000
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: a little word on your phone. The weather channel's going

1001
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: crazy saying we're all gonna die, there's a flash flood

1002
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,720
Speaker 1: come in, blah blah blah. They're running at a pumpkin

1003
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 1: spice when I mean, what what was that turn they're

1004
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 1: using for that snowstorm? It snowed like six inches snow mgeddon.

1005
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,800
Speaker 1: It was like death cycle, cyclone bomb or something like that that.

1006
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: I drove right through it. I drove. I just put

1007
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: my car and foil drive, went right through it like

1008
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 1: it wasn't even there. So yeah, I wonder if that,

1009
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: like that message did go out well back to your

1010
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: mean thing that you know, causing a panic, you know,

1011
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 1: and this is this is a fear that when you

1012
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: when you have twenty four hour coverage of snow Mageddon

1013
00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 1: or the cyclone bomb and then real you have three

1014
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: inches of snow and people aren't dead, The power grid

1015
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,480
Speaker 1: hasn't gone down, you know, there isn't there isn't like

1016
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: war for the last gallon of milk. You know, how

1017
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 1: many times do you cry wolf before people go and

1018
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 1: then you get a text nuclear weapons being launched. That's

1019
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 1: the same thing too. With that, you know, not to

1020
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,000
Speaker 1: go back to Trump's Twitter, but every single day it's

1021
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,959
Speaker 1: could you believe what Trump tweeted? And that's believe it?

1022
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: Something about that Basbok. He was like, yes, I believe it,

1023
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:33,720
Speaker 1: no matter before you even tell me what he tweeted.

1024
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: And he was like, thank god, Congress has you know

1025
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 1: power in our country. We don't live in a dictator

1026
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:41,360
Speaker 1: I forgot who said it, but they said they said

1027
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 1: Twitter is the laser point. Trump is the laser point,

1028
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 1: and the media is the cat. You know that, Like

1029
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 1: he probably I would not be watched this. I'm gonna

1030
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: tweet something out here. We go, there you go. I

1031
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 1: can't I sneaky Diane, I can't do it. I can't

1032
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,359
Speaker 1: do that. I can't do the daily outrage. I just

1033
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,319
Speaker 1: can't do it. I agree. There's there's one guy who

1034
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 1: always tweets me wants me to be as outraged as him.

1035
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 1: Aren't you outraged? Yeah? Why aren't you outraged? So this

1036
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: this is actually probably a question you get a lot

1037
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 1: on your radio show. I just know, as a guy

1038
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,760
Speaker 1: who screens phone calls when I was there. Um, Steve

1039
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: Lindberg Lindbergh, baby, okay on on YouTube, that's the next

1040
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 1: episode of Jack's TV show. We're digging, Baby, We're gonna

1041
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 1: find it. Do you feel there's a massive case of trees?

1042
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:29,240
Speaker 1: And with the Quintin's, I think they learned to perfect

1043
00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: early on in Arkansas. If you go back and read

1044
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 1: their relationship with Tyson foods um and and the you

1045
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 1: know when here's the weird thing. My understanding of that

1046
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:43,080
Speaker 1: started with Jerry Brown. It wasn't anything that I was like,

1047
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: can I find something there? Jerry Brown in the ninety

1048
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,640
Speaker 1: two primaries looked right at Bill Clinton, said you had

1049
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 1: you were looking the other way while Tyson Food was polluted,

1050
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,279
Speaker 1: polluting the white water and your wife was the attorney

1051
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: for Tyson food ship. Well your states. Yeah, So this

1052
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 1: this started with Jerry Brown. And before Bill Clinton was

1053
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 1: the Bill Clinton, the be got really interested in his

1054
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 1: relationship with the Walton family and and Mena Arkansas. There's

1055
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,799
Speaker 1: a lot of nefarious activities that went down. There's that too,

1056
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:20,480
Speaker 1: cocaine cowboys. But before Bill Clinton became you know JFK

1057
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,640
Speaker 1: two point oh um or as Colin Quinton what said

1058
00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: JFK had Mari Monroe and Bill Clinton went for the

1059
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 1: first pair of acid wash jeans that fell out of

1060
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 1: the butt rock, which I love him. That the media

1061
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 1: was very willing to report more heavily on on their

1062
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 1: sort of their pay for play. And I think it

1063
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 1: only grew as as their influence grew. I think the

1064
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: money got bigger and the the interests got bigger. So

1065
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,440
Speaker 1: you started with, you know, environmental issues in the White

1066
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,880
Speaker 1: River and pollution and the biggest two biggest employers in

1067
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,359
Speaker 1: Arkansas are Walmartin Tyson Foods. And then you move up

1068
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: to uranium. Yeah, you move up to uranium, and I

1069
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: just I can't This is what I don't understand about

1070
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: the Clints. How much is enough? You know, at what

1071
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:18,320
Speaker 1: point do you say we are really potentially creating something

1072
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 1: that could threaten the United States? And when I when

1073
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:23,399
Speaker 1: I'm not one of these people I've argued. I argued

1074
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,799
Speaker 1: with Mark Cuban about this. Mark Cuban kind of came

1075
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,760
Speaker 1: after me, like you don't really think that the Clintons

1076
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 1: are sending uranium to RUSSI I'm like, no, no no, no, no,

1077
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: not loading up an a C one thirty and sending

1078
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,439
Speaker 1: it over there. But they are giving them entrance into

1079
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,799
Speaker 1: the market where if the Russians are the worst thing

1080
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 1: in the world, why would you want them controlling even

1081
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,960
Speaker 1: one percent of American mind uranium. By the way, that

1082
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: was one of those things that just started as like

1083
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,799
Speaker 1: tweets back and forth, right and then you know, after

1084
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,320
Speaker 1: after tweeting back and forth and me saying, look, I

1085
00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: actually respect some of your your you know what, you

1086
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 1: what you believe, I think you're barking up the wrong

1087
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:59,280
Speaker 1: tree looking for me is like some sort of you know, crazy,

1088
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 1: you know person. And then he came on the program.

1089
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 1: It was kind of like, you're not so bad. I

1090
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,240
Speaker 1: did get. What was more out there than Mark Cuban

1091
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:10,719
Speaker 1: randomly kind of calling in or Caitlyn Jenner randomly calling

1092
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: have you seen the pictures of that? Yes? Okay? Um?

1093
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: That I think was more bizarre for people at Serious

1094
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 1: x M, because I had one executive recently say to

1095
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,880
Speaker 1: me that you are the cross sided, redheaded stepchild at

1096
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: this company and I and she's like, I mean that

1097
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 1: in the best way possible. That Look, it's it's Manhattan,

1098
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 1: It's the entertainment industry. It is it is what it is,

1099
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 1: you know, this is this town. And I think that

1100
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:44,440
Speaker 1: the people who don't like conservative media, we can't understand

1101
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: how a Caitlin Jenner could possibly possibly like my program. Um.

1102
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,160
Speaker 1: The same thing goes for Kristen Beck. Kristin Beck Lessons

1103
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: calls regularly that Kristin Beck cole recently and said, Andrew,

1104
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 1: you know your beliefs on on a free society. They extended,

1105
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: well like me, and it's a yeah, okay, thanks, hung

1106
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:07,960
Speaker 1: up satisfying you know that that that that's where that's

1107
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: the libertarian and me talking, you know. But when Caitlyn

1108
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 1: Jenner came in and was set to do this the

1109
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:18,360
Speaker 1: big book release from Andy Cohen from BABO, and Caitlyn

1110
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 1: Jenner is sitting in the in the green room and

1111
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:21,959
Speaker 1: they said, could we get you anything? He said yeah,

1112
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: Caitlyn said yeah. Andrew Andrew wilco and they're like wait, wait, wait,

1113
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 1: wait what? So he and ian Ian and I get

1114
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: summoned to the green room and there's the Caitlyn Jenner

1115
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: sitting there, you know, and just hops up and both

1116
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 1: of them. Remember I saw the picture. It was like

1117
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 1: when the kind of persia has his hands on me

1118
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: and shoulders like, I think, first of all, the inscription

1119
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,320
Speaker 1: of the book is to my work in progress. And

1120
00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:56,560
Speaker 1: I was like, that's ironic, um, But forgetting this siss

1121
00:58:56,640 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: mail versus zimsayser, what we know is Bruce Jenner and

1122
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 1: I and I said this to Caitly, I said, you

1123
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: will always be the Bruce Jenner on the wheaties box

1124
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: to my generation. I said, but if you want to

1125
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: live your life this way, this is entirely up to you.

1126
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 1: You still have to remember this is a world class

1127
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:19,960
Speaker 1: athlete who is larger than most men and now wearing

1128
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 1: high heels. Caitlyn Jenner hops up off the chair and

1129
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 1: just douges my shoulder with and I'm using gender Caitlin's

1130
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:34,480
Speaker 1: thumb and I'm like AOI and spins me around and

1131
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 1: we take this picture, and I was I kind of

1132
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 1: looked at Ian with a kind of sly smile as

1133
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 1: as I'm getting this kind of like finger in the face.

1134
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 1: But you know, it was, it was, It was very

1135
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 1: It was more surreal to see the look on the

1136
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 1: people's faces in the room, like what am I seeing here?

1137
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:55,920
Speaker 1: This guy is you know, in my mind, this right

1138
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,560
Speaker 1: wing monster and here is the person who is you know,

1139
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:04,600
Speaker 1: bray barriers for the transgender community and this person likes him,

1140
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 1: you know, so that was that was a very weird.

1141
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: The pictures were phenomenal. Yes, they do, they do. They

1142
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: do speak a lot to picture, can say a thousand

1143
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: words what they are. I have no idea should show

1144
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 1: it to the camera, Yeah, I'll repost it or something.

1145
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 1: And we took it. Yeah. It almost reminds me, to

1146
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 1: be honest of like when we've met Trace Atkins, who

1147
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: was a friend of the show. Just powers above everybody,

1148
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 1: like you know you talk about on the show Behind

1149
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: you know, the plastic surgery, like Kitlin, what was Bruce

1150
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 1: Jenner as you said, it's like a genetic freak of

1151
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 1: a man, you know, and you know, without sending people

1152
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:47,280
Speaker 1: to the angrily, you know, send things to you. Yes,

1153
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:52,919
Speaker 1: Caitlin was once a you know, just like Kristen Beck

1154
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 1: was once. I remember saying to to to Chief Beck.

1155
01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:00,240
Speaker 1: I was like, well how about you bench and Chief

1156
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: Beck was like three fifteen. I'm like, yeah, you know,

1157
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 1: most women don't bet pounds. So you know, even if

1158
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: that is that that they're chosen lifestyle, you can't give

1159
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 1: up on the fact that you were a Navy seal

1160
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 1: that you know, hoisted lugs over your head and stuff

1161
01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 1: like that. I mean, you are big beef. I heard

1162
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,200
Speaker 1: Kristen Beck went the last well, one of the last

1163
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 1: times Kristen Beck was on the show, and you were

1164
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 1: in studio with John Gillham, and Kristen Beck was like, John,

1165
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 1: how much do you bet? Exactly kind of conversation that

1166
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 1: we're having here, You know, like, I don't discuss. When

1167
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:36,120
Speaker 1: I tell my wife how much I bet, She's like,

1168
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 1: I don't care. She's like, I don't care. Yeah, that's funny. Um,

1169
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at some other questions here. This is

1170
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,320
Speaker 1: actually a pretty good question for all of us. I think, um,

1171
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 1: do you think that radio shows or podcasts can eventually

1172
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,440
Speaker 1: overpower the twenty four hour news cycle? How can small

1173
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 1: media companies stand a chance against CNN, MSNBC and Fox

1174
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 1: when they seem to have large bases of revenue streaming

1175
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,959
Speaker 1: in I think it's already happening. Yeah, well, I think

1176
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 1: the truth is and I, you know, not to discount myself,

1177
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,160
Speaker 1: I think that the network chieftains. You look at the

1178
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 1: kind of money that's been lost on the signing of

1179
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: of of some big media personalities. Recently without naming names. UM,

1180
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 1: I think the days of throwing a twenty million dollar

1181
01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:30,200
Speaker 1: contract at somebody. UM. I think that because people want

1182
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: into this business, I think that they're gonna that. You

1183
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 1: look at podcasters who edit their own podcast or people

1184
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,720
Speaker 1: that do their own YouTube channels. You know. I'll be

1185
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,440
Speaker 1: honest with you, at the new CRTV studio, myself and

1186
01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 1: my producer maybe wielling out the desk for the first

1187
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 1: few months. And I think where this business has m

1188
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: built some prima donnas. I think the new sort of

1189
01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:01,640
Speaker 1: rogue new media types are a little bit more rough

1190
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:06,560
Speaker 1: and tumble and don't expect that twenty million dollar pay day,

1191
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 1: you know that Like when you look at some of

1192
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: the network news salaries. I think eventually, when they don't

1193
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 1: get their bank for that buck anymore, you know, and

1194
01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 1: when people start subscribing to new media, and when you

1195
01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:25,880
Speaker 1: see that revenue lost at some of these networks, I

1196
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,920
Speaker 1: think that that's when you'll see either the networks adopt

1197
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 1: programs like mine or like yours or whoever's or their

1198
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 1: business model will get outdated. I don't know. I I

1199
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 1: think the audience is to even like that kind of

1200
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 1: rough and tumble they don't. They don't want it to

1201
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:46,320
Speaker 1: be like overproduced. They wanted to feel you know, natural, authentic.

1202
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. The Fox News called me up

1203
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:53,600
Speaker 1: and said, look, you know we're buying you out. I will.

1204
01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 1: You know, look, we're all in this business to make money.

1205
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:00,200
Speaker 1: But you know, I've watched, I've watched. I remember when

1206
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: I first got into radio and some of the paychecks

1207
01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 1: that you'd hear about morning anchors on local station. We're

1208
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: not talking the big you know, syndicated shows. It was like,

1209
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 1: oh my god. And then as the years went on,

1210
01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 1: it was kind of like, you know, DJ salaries almost

1211
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:20,080
Speaker 1: became like an hourly wage. Um. You know, I think

1212
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:24,000
Speaker 1: that that the the audience is spreading out. When you

1213
01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 1: only had three channels and three network anchors, right, you're

1214
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 1: paying for one third of the market. I think as

1215
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 1: these networks kind of lose market, I would say it's

1216
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 1: almost like the brewing companies. Right at first Sam Adams

1217
01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 1: wasn't really a threat, and then you had all these

1218
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 1: up start breweries and then the big brewery started buying

1219
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 1: up some of these some of these brewing companies kind

1220
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 1: of get them out of the way, or at least

1221
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:47,080
Speaker 1: own their market share, that those brewing companies were surviving

1222
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:50,280
Speaker 1: without the kind of revenue of an Anheuser Bush And

1223
01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 1: I think as long as there are people who will

1224
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: survive on the salaries and revenue they drive for their

1225
01:04:55,840 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 1: new programs, it will force the networks to reefing their

1226
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:03,320
Speaker 1: business models. I would argue that Joe Rogan, I think

1227
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 1: has a bigger audience than just about anybody. You know,

1228
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 1: I don't really hear people talk about that. You hear

1229
01:05:08,120 --> 01:05:10,280
Speaker 1: what this host said on this show, but I constantly

1230
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,160
Speaker 1: hear about who Joe Rogan had on He's always like

1231
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: the top of the the Apple podcast chart. And that's why,

1232
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 1: Like when a Lance Armstrong wanted to do an in

1233
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,680
Speaker 1: depth interview about his steroid use about everything, that's where

1234
01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: he went. He didn't go to a major network or

1235
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:27,120
Speaker 1: UM Barack Obama. When he did that in depth interview,

1236
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:31,040
Speaker 1: it was with UM Mark Mark Barron, So you know,

1237
01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 1: I know Mark Barron, and that's a whole another subject.

1238
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: Like not very successful with the liberal talk radio, but

1239
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,600
Speaker 1: he found his niche with this podcast thing, and like

1240
01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 1: there's podcasts that have way bigger listenership. Then stole the

1241
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 1: versions of podcasting from where I said, yeah, I know,

1242
01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 1: I'm just you know, well, Sirius XM is great as well,

1243
01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,480
Speaker 1: and it is also an alternative to like the traditional

1244
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:53,400
Speaker 1: am FM thing going on. You know, you've talked about

1245
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,880
Speaker 1: it before, the fact that you're competing in the time slot.

1246
01:05:55,960 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 1: Rush Limbos says at eleven years and almost twelve, um,

1247
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 1: this is a good one for you, Andrew from Marshall

1248
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:06,360
Speaker 1: Goally um watching on Facebook give We all know that

1249
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:08,880
Speaker 1: the first term mid term elections are a bad are

1250
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:12,440
Speaker 1: bad for the president's party. Any predictions about Republican loss

1251
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: is also what happened with Jeff Flake, as I remember

1252
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,800
Speaker 1: he started out as one of the quote good guys. Well,

1253
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 1: first of all, I think you can be offended at

1254
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:23,800
Speaker 1: the President's tweets, right, I know plenty of could serves

1255
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 1: that don't like it. They think the candor is terrible,

1256
01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:29,200
Speaker 1: they think it's a distraction. They would they wish he

1257
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 1: would just govern. You know that that that that all

1258
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:34,280
Speaker 1: that should have been left on the campaign trail and

1259
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,920
Speaker 1: now he should you be giving up? I I get

1260
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:38,880
Speaker 1: all that. I mean, even though as somebody who thinks

1261
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:41,720
Speaker 1: that we kind of if you're gonna have, if you're

1262
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 1: gonna drain the swamp. You're gonna have to cause kus

1263
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:46,400
Speaker 1: if you're gonna cause casting it a chaotic figure, right,

1264
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get one without the other. That's that's

1265
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 1: my belief on it. Jeff Flake trying to refer to

1266
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:55,840
Speaker 1: you know, normally it's reducto at Hitler room right. It's like,

1267
01:06:56,040 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: I don't like you, you're Hitler two. Claim that Donald

1268
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 1: Trump has any relationship to a man who starved millions

1269
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 1: of people and what's known now historically as food as

1270
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 1: a weapon. I think this extreme comparisons. It's like comparing

1271
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,480
Speaker 1: telling a dirty joke to rape, which is happening with

1272
01:07:16,520 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 1: the Me too movement that some feminists are now starting

1273
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,880
Speaker 1: to worry that that that trying to put everything in

1274
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:25,280
Speaker 1: one big best like he looked at me funny. That's

1275
01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:27,800
Speaker 1: not like rape, you know. But but when you put

1276
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:33,560
Speaker 1: when you start to compare Donald Trump to Joseph Stalin

1277
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:38,480
Speaker 1: and Adolf Hitler, you're really downplaying what kind of absolute monsters,

1278
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:43,919
Speaker 1: To be fair, you did compared with because of its propaganda.

1279
01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 1: As far as the Republican losses. Here here's the thing,

1280
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, could this be a stock market bubble? Yes?

1281
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: Could these bonuses be a one off thing. But if

1282
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:59,440
Speaker 1: he gets the economy right, if unemployment stays low, if

1283
01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 1: manure the unemployment like unemployment is historic lows, if people

1284
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:09,280
Speaker 1: are having more money to spend and they're genuinely happy,

1285
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 1: the Democrats message having to be something other than that

1286
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 1: is gonna be well, we want to take this all

1287
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:18,120
Speaker 1: away from you. I mean, how if they can't. You

1288
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 1: can't argue with success. That was why Bill Clinton got

1289
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 1: reelected right. The Republicans didn't have an argument against what

1290
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: was seen as it's the economy stupid, right. Bill Clinton

1291
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,400
Speaker 1: worked with Republicans and got it right on the economy. Um,

1292
01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,599
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump gets it right on the economy, what's

1293
01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:40,439
Speaker 1: the argument against it? What? What is what is the

1294
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 1: argument against for the average voter. If there's more money

1295
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: in their back pockets, if they have more money to spend,

1296
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,599
Speaker 1: if therefore, oh one case, or performing better, if jobs

1297
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:52,680
Speaker 1: are being created in communities that were once decimated by

1298
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,559
Speaker 1: job loss. Now jobs are coming back. I mean, Grant

1299
01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:58,200
Speaker 1: Dodge just announced that the RAM factories are opening back

1300
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 1: and they're moving in their production from Mexico back into

1301
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:03,880
Speaker 1: the United States. If this trend continues for the next

1302
01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:07,160
Speaker 1: two years. All I would ask anyone from the other

1303
01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 1: side of the als, what's your argument against it? Yeah,

1304
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,439
Speaker 1: I mean people vote with their pocketbooks at the end

1305
01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 1: of the day. Yeah, although, um, you know to to

1306
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:17,720
Speaker 1: give the other side, as we often do on here.

1307
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 1: We were talking about the tax cut plant, you know,

1308
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:24,000
Speaker 1: the tax cuts, and you were saying, like people like

1309
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 1: you hurts people like my parents, and which is kind

1310
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,040
Speaker 1: of weird. You like, I was under you know, I

1311
01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:30,600
Speaker 1: think people are under the impression that if you're in

1312
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:32,559
Speaker 1: a higher tax bracket, whether you live in New York

1313
01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:35,880
Speaker 1: or you live in you know, Louisiana, the Republicans are

1314
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:38,680
Speaker 1: good for you know, your paycheck, and like people like

1315
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,400
Speaker 1: my parents and are getting absolutely screwed, which is kind

1316
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,720
Speaker 1: of surprising, right I think. Look, I still I I

1317
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:47,519
Speaker 1: still advocate for the flat tax. Um. You know, if

1318
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:50,000
Speaker 1: you want to make a constitutional equal protection order the law,

1319
01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,160
Speaker 1: we should play pay a single rate for the fair tax,

1320
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,680
Speaker 1: no deductions. I live in New Jersey. You know, I'm

1321
01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 1: one of these people that's gonna, you know, have to

1322
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,240
Speaker 1: deal with the state and local tax deduction. And you're

1323
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:05,160
Speaker 1: a property owner. Um the I I guess, um, And

1324
01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:07,120
Speaker 1: you see the kind of panic. You know, Phil Murphy

1325
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:10,000
Speaker 1: got inaugurated today. You know, the question is, okay, so

1326
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,240
Speaker 1: what are we democrats in these high tech states do

1327
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 1: you know? You know, it's real easy, it's real easy

1328
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:18,640
Speaker 1: to virtue signal. Look at us. We're in Massachusetts. We

1329
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 1: invest in all kinds of these things. Yeah, but now

1330
01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:23,080
Speaker 1: you gotta pay for it. So when when California and

1331
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:25,960
Speaker 1: New York, New Jersey, Illinois have to pay for these

1332
01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:29,840
Speaker 1: wildly generous salaries and pensions for their public employees, when

1333
01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:32,320
Speaker 1: they want to brag on their investments in in in

1334
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 1: infrastructured education. It was real easy so long as everybody

1335
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 1: was able to write it off, right, what do you care? Right?

1336
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,479
Speaker 1: And these taxes, that is write it off. But once

1337
01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:44,080
Speaker 1: you can't write it off, then you gotta You're gonna see,

1338
01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 1: you know, what I say publicly and what I do privately.

1339
01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 1: It's kind of like these Hollywood people like I live

1340
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:51,879
Speaker 1: in Malibu, but your production companies in Sun Valley, Idaho.

1341
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,639
Speaker 1: You know, so that's where you're really paying taxes. You're

1342
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:57,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna The question is what are the blue state

1343
01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: voters going to do the next time they could elect

1344
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 1: a new state government. I gotta get your opinion before

1345
01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 1: you get out of here. On and by the way,

1346
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 1: I should point out Andrew just did a three hour

1347
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:10,400
Speaker 1: radio show that right here, and I'm going over to

1353
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,759
Speaker 1: Mike Bins has often said, like you could wake Andrew

1354
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,040

Speaker 1: with Oprah, I think my only question would be Donald

1365
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,680
Speaker 1: Trump came into an established field of Republican to it

1366
01:11:59,760 --> 01:12:02,080
Speaker 1: all lined up their ducks and he had a he

1367
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 1: had a bullet strike. Is she willing to walk in

1368
01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,719
Speaker 1: and do that and bullish strike and knock Elizabeth Warren

1369
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:10,559
Speaker 1: out of the way, not Corey Booker out of the way,

1370
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:14,240
Speaker 1: not Kamala Harris out of the way, because and are

1371
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:15,920
Speaker 1: they gonna let her do it? Are they going to

1372
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:18,440
Speaker 1: have to come back around? It's like you have no experience,

1373
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 1: you have no idea what you're doing. It would I

1374
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:23,400
Speaker 1: I think, just like it's set off a war in

1375
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,120
Speaker 1: Republican circles, it would set up a war in Democrats circles.

1376
01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:27,639
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna all right, I'll let you go and

1377
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,280
Speaker 1: I'll and I'll plug everything by the way, Thanks man, dude,

1384
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 1: at willcow Majority on Twitter. That's really funny that we

1385
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,960
Speaker 1: totally un into his time there. But I enjoyed the

1386
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 1: man really Andrews, you know, the most high energy guy

1387
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,200
Speaker 1: in the world. He just did a three hour show,

1388
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:09,080
Speaker 1: ran over here, did this now going over to He's

1389
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 1: got the right person. You know. I feel like I'm

1390
01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:16,240
Speaker 1: too boring for for radio and uh in television. Also,

1391
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 1: I never thought I'd be on TV for that reason,

1392
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 1: Like who wants to sit there and watch Jack Murphy

1393
01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:22,439
Speaker 1: like read a book for three hours or something like.

1394
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:24,839
Speaker 1: You know, it was very high energy in your community

1395
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:26,360
Speaker 1: that I'd say, I think you already know him to

1396
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:30,639
Speaker 1: say Terry Shophard, Oh, Terry great, yea, yeah, he's always

1397
01:13:30,680 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 1: extremely high energy. Um So I guess before we get

1398
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,559
Speaker 1: to the why the just reads here and wrap everything up.

1399
01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 1: I got plugs, yeah, do it? Go for it tonight? Uh,

1400
01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:44,800
Speaker 1: episode three of the Tesla show airs where we went

1401
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 1: to Serbia, and that'll be pretty interesting and um right

1402
01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:51,720
Speaker 1: now it should be published already. UM. I wrote an

1403
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:54,679
Speaker 1: article about this movie twelve Strong that's coming out where

1404
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:57,800
Speaker 1: Thor plays a Special Forces captain. UM. I wrote an

1405
01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:00,559
Speaker 1: article about I haven't seen the movie. I talked to

1406
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,960
Speaker 1: people who have some awareness of it, and uh, some

1407
01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:05,799
Speaker 1: of this stuff that was going on in the set

1408
01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 1: and anyway. So it's like kind of a background or

1409
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:11,400
Speaker 1: about the film, and it's I'm kind of notorious for

1410
01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 1: writing like negative film reviews and trash and movies. I'm

1411
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:18,519
Speaker 1: not I'm not trashing the movie. I'm just saying, understand

1412
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:20,040
Speaker 1: what it is and what it isn't when you go

1413
01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:21,760
Speaker 1: and see it. And if you read that article, I'll

1414
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:25,000
Speaker 1: give you a little bit of a background on it. Said, Um,

1415
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 1: you said that, so that's this movie, right, Uh, yes,

1416
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:31,679
Speaker 1: which we are going to try to get. Doug Stanton

1417
01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 1: actually reached out. So really it'll be interesting, Uh, I'll

1418
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: try It'll be interesting because the civil the guys tell

1419
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,719
Speaker 1: me that the book is in the movie are both

1420
01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:46,559
Speaker 1: pretty inaccurate. Their experience was interesting, but we didn't have

1421
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 1: that conversation of course. Yeah. Um, so we covered this earlier,

1422
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:53,160
Speaker 1: but a trillion thoughts asks and I think this is inaccurate.

1423
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 1: Sol correct it, but says what made you guys bring

1424
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:57,880
Speaker 1: down the paywall for soft rep TV. The paywall is

1425
01:14:57,880 --> 01:15:00,320
Speaker 1: not down for softwarep TV correct, just down for for

1426
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:03,000
Speaker 1: software soft rep dot com. And as for what made it,

1427
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: I think we covered some of that. I don't know

1428
01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:06,639
Speaker 1: if there's anything we Yeah, I mean I don't. I'm

1429
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:08,600
Speaker 1: an editor and I deal with the content, so I

1430
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:10,920
Speaker 1: don't know. I can't like walk you through the numbers

1431
01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:13,120
Speaker 1: and everything of like why, But I think it's just

1432
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:18,040
Speaker 1: about getting more more page views, getting very well. So yeah,

1433
01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 1: so we're not relying just on soft reap anymore. We

1434
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 1: have all these other endeavors. There's a whole constellation UM

1435
01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:28,240
Speaker 1: underneath Hurricane, and soft Rep is one of them. So

1436
01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:32,840
Speaker 1: we're not totally relying on soft Rep subscriptions for UM

1437
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:35,040
Speaker 1: for revenue. So we're able to kind of open up

1438
01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:37,639
Speaker 1: that door and share our material with a much larger audience.

1439
01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:40,519
Speaker 1: Now I see that Andrew's producer wrote, Yes, this is

1440
01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Andrew's producer. He's totally late. That's funny. Um. Yeah, no,

1441
01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:47,160
Speaker 1: that's great to see. So we have a shot show

1442
01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:49,840
Speaker 1: coming up next week, a bunch of us next week

1443
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:54,040

1444
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,360
Speaker 1: up on me. Um. I'm trying to think if there's

1445
01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:59,800
Speaker 1: anything else that we haven't covered. Um. I think we

1446
01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:02,840
Speaker 1: we got into a lot here. So that's yeah, that's

1447
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 1: about it, man. Yeah, we have some great people coming

01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:17,360

Speaker 1: news and all that, but Andrew is just not only

1492
01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,000
Speaker 1: introduced me to everybody. I'm glad we could have Andrew on.

1493
01:18:24,400 --> 01:18:27,040
Speaker 1: Instead of us being a guest on his show, you

1494
01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:29,280
Speaker 1: can be a guest on ours. Yeah, well technically I've

1495
01:18:29,320 --> 01:18:32,559
Speaker 1: I've never you know, I'm the guy who answered and

1496
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,760
Speaker 1: Brandon just one day texted me. And while I was

1497
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:38,840
Speaker 1: part time there, I became full time around the same

1498
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,000
Speaker 1: time that Brandon texted me and said, do you want

1499
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:44,480
Speaker 1: to do the podcast with us? And it was like absolutely,

1500
01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,840
Speaker 1: why not. So it's been a blast doing it. I

1501
01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:50,120
Speaker 1: mean it's been over four years at this point, so

1502

Speaker 1: our visibility up. And there's so much stuff in the archives.

1513
01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:29,559
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, soft reap dot com. There there's some zingers

1514
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 1: in there, there's some good stuff. Uh, you know, you

1515
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 1: go searching around in there. Um. Everything I've ever written

1516
01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:38,400
Speaker 1: is on there, or everything I've ever written as far

1517
01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 1: as like journalism is on there um and many many

1518
01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:44,760
Speaker 1: other great writers that we've had working for us. Um.

1519
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:47,479
Speaker 1: So it's exciting that all that stuff is shared with

1520
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,000
Speaker 1: a larger audience. Now. Yeah, I you know, I didn't

1521
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:51,880
Speaker 1: have time to get into it in the whole intro

1522
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,960
Speaker 1: with Andrew because I didn't want to, you know, waste

1523
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 1: too much of his time. But the thing that I

1524
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:58,640
Speaker 1: always think of is that I think there's certain investigative

1525
01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:02,240
Speaker 1: pieces you have written in particular that I could very

1526
01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:05,360
Speaker 1: well see being like top of Drudge Report linking to

1527
01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:08,120
Speaker 1: soft rep. But for the most part, these type of

1528
01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:11,439
Speaker 1: websites don't want to link to a paid subscription service.

1529
01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:14,040
Speaker 1: So I think it will really help us get page

1530
01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,719
Speaker 1: views up and get our name out there to bigger outlets.

1531
01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:20,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure it will. Um. You know, because we were

1532
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,559
Speaker 1: a subscriber service, UM, and we we had this very

1533
01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:27,960
Speaker 1: interesting thing going on, and it was it was a

1534
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 1: niche and um, in some way it was kind of

1535
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,080
Speaker 1: elitist because it's like you have to be a member

1536
01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:36,800
Speaker 1: to read, which I personally liked because you could see

1537
01:20:36,800 --> 01:20:39,960
Speaker 1: the pandemonium on the internet and on social media and

1538
01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:42,760
Speaker 1: how it's like a free fer all. Um and the

1539
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,840
Speaker 1: comments section, Oh my god, the comments section will never

1540
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:48,720
Speaker 1: read the comments. And I mean, look, I'm I'll tell

1541
01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 1: you right here on Facebook Live, like I don't read

1542
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,800
Speaker 1: the comments often on our Facebook page response sometimes though,

1543
01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:57,400
Speaker 1: but sometimes once in a while, but I very rarely

1544
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,680
Speaker 1: read them to begin with, because most people are just

1545
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:05,320
Speaker 1: having an emotional sort of you know, lashing out about

1546
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:08,880
Speaker 1: a headline or something like that. UM. And I always

1547
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,920
Speaker 1: like to soffer it because we had a subscriber service

1548
01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 1: and like the people who are there were people who

1549
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:17,040
Speaker 1: wanted to be there and they could disagree with what's written,

1550
01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:19,720
Speaker 1: of course and have that conversation. But it wasn't um,

1551
01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:23,040
Speaker 1: the sort of like free for all name calling childish

1552
01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:26,920
Speaker 1: nonsense that we see on social media. But um, nonetheless,

1553
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean we it's still is that way, if you

1554
01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:30,160
Speaker 1: want to leave, you have to be a member to

1555
01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:32,439
Speaker 1: leave a comment on the site. So for the people

1556
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:37,080
Speaker 1: who do hang out on the website and enjoy those conversations, um,

1557
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:38,960
Speaker 1: it's not going to be that free for all that

1558
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:41,280
Speaker 1: they find on it. And there's other incentives to be

1559
01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 1: a member to, you know, like the team room party. Um,

1560
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:46,120
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll do another one of those next year. Yeah,

1561
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 1: there's a lot of other functionality on the website. There's

1562
01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:50,639
Speaker 1: people who like the chat functions and all that kind

1563
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 1: of stuff. So yeah, very cool. And yeah, I think

1564
01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,559
Speaker 1: of like an article, you know, like the dick by

1565
01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 1: sixth article de peaceably would have been picked up by

1566
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,720
Speaker 1: other news news agency. Here's here's some news on on

1567
01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:05,519
Speaker 1: DP six Uh, CNN is producing an article on it.

1568
01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:08,120
Speaker 1: Then they've been down far to interviewing people. Will you

1569
01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 1: at least get any credit for any probably notably, they're

1570
01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:14,800
Speaker 1: probably gonna claim that they're breaking this story. I'm sure, Um,

1571
01:22:14,840 --> 01:22:17,200
Speaker 1: but yeah, they're they're following on my heels, I guess.

1572
01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 1: I mean they were interested in I don't know how

1573
01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:21,639
Speaker 1: they got a tip about this story to begin with,

1574
01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:25,200
Speaker 1: but they were already attempting to work on this story

1575
01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:29,200
Speaker 1: around the same time that I started working on the story, Okay,

1576
01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:31,080
Speaker 1: because I was gonna say, I do you know and

1577
01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:32,800
Speaker 1: you know this too. I even just see from who

1578
01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,559
Speaker 1: follows us on Twitter and stuff. There's plenty of news

1579
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:40,960
Speaker 1: agencies and news news hosting stuff who follow stuff wrap,

1580
01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:43,759
Speaker 1: who read all of our stuff watch, and there are

1581
01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 1: outlets um like CNN. Honestly, I mean, I don't know

1582
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:49,760
Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. And it's not a criticism of

1583
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 1: the story they're working on about DP six and all that,

1584
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 1: all that good stuff. Um, but CNN has in the

1585
01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:58,960
Speaker 1: past hijacked my work. I mean there's one woman they

1586
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:00,680
Speaker 1: had working for them for a wile that would read

1587
01:23:00,720 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 1: my stories and then she just rewrite them in her

1588
01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:06,400
Speaker 1: own words and go upon there. It's like, man, really,

1589
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:12,439
Speaker 1: um who from the Hive? The Chive? Even foreign Policy? Um,

1590
01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, I did a big story about how technology

1591
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:17,559
Speaker 1: was impacting espionage and I interviewed a bunch of CIA

1592
01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:23,400
Speaker 1: people and one Massad uh former MASSAD officer, and um,

1593
01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:26,639
Speaker 1: like to three weeks later, there's a story on Foreign

1594
01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:29,840
Speaker 1: Policy about the same subject. Uh. They went and tried

1595
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:32,880
Speaker 1: to cut rolling Stone. They took they wanted to talk

1596
01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: to me about the Wayne Simmons story, and I refused

1597
01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:37,559
Speaker 1: as because I don't talk to Rolling Stone as just

1598
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: a matter of principle. And um, they like basically rewrote

1599
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,280
Speaker 1: my story and they even used the same pictures. It

1600
01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 1: was pretty incredible, all right. Well, thanks as always for
