What 21 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: is the story of Thanksgiving? 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 4: Well? 23 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 5: Little background, So the King of England was a globalist. 24 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 5: He was a one world government guy. With him at 25 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 5: the top, the British Empire controlled Indi Australia, New Zealand, 26 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 5: Hong Kong, Britsk, guy On In, Canada, Barbatas, Permuna, Jamaica, 27 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 5: and America. And so America's founders wanted to break away 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,479 Speaker 5: from this globalist, one world government king and so they 29 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 5: flipped it and made the people the king. And so 30 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 5: where did they get this idea that you could rule 31 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 5: yourself without a king, Well, it came from the Pilgrims, 32 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 5: and that it came from the Calvinist Puritans that came 33 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 5: from the Reformation. And then they got their ideas from 34 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 5: ancient Israel. That first four hundred years out of Egypt. 35 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 5: It's called the Hebrew Republic, and it's the first instance 36 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 5: in recorded history of a nation with millions of people 37 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 5: and no king, and it's around fourteen hundred BC up 38 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 5: to about one thousand BC. And it worked because every 39 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 5: single citizen was taught the law and they were personally 40 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 5: accountable to God to follow the law. So this period 41 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 5: of history is called the Hebrew Republic. And these Calvinist 42 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 5: Puritan scholars study this so intently that they were nicknamed 43 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 5: Christian Hebraists. So in fifteen seventeen, Martin Luther starts the 44 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 5: Reformation and for about a century before the Age of Enlightenment, 45 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 5: you have these scholars in Europe studying not just the 46 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 5: Bible in their own language, but this particular first four 47 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 5: hundred year period, this Hebrew republic, and that's why they 48 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 5: taught Hebrew at Yale and Harvard. They were amazed at 49 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 5: coming up with a form of government without a king. 50 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 5: And again it's based on this idea that you teach 51 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 5: everybody the law, and then everybody walks around aware that 52 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 5: they're accountable to a God who's watching them, wants them 53 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 5: to be fair, and is going to hold them accountable 54 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 5: in the future. 55 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 4: It's we don't appreciate. 56 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 5: What makes America great is in a sense, you get 57 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 5: to be the king of your life, and all of 58 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 5: us together are the king of the country. It's a 59 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 5: bottom up, individual empowered country that is totally opposite of 60 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 5: the kings of England and the kings of Europe and anyway. 61 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 5: So that's why one of the reasons when we celebrate 62 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 5: Thanksgiving is the birth of a country where the people 63 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 5: get to be in charge of their lives. 64 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 2: Can can you talk about how important it is to 65 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: give thanks and then go through the actual the actual 66 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: story of Thanksgiving with Squanto and I forget some of 67 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 2: the details, but tell us about that. 68 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is really fascinating. 69 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 5: So the Pilgrims were a church group, and so the 70 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 5: King of England, Henry the Eighth, breaks away from Rome 71 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 5: and his advisors tell him, if he's serious about it, 72 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 5: he needs to stop using the Latin Bible, get himself 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 5: an English Bible, the German Princess of Martin Luther's German 74 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 5: Bible that helped them to break away. Well, Henry the 75 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 5: a says, great, get me one. Well, it just so happens. 76 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 5: A few years earlier, Henry the Eighth had William Tindall 77 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 5: burnt at the stake for translating the Bible into English, 78 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 5: and William Tindall's last words were Lord opened the King 79 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 5: of England's eyes. And now it's a couple of years later, 80 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 5: the king wants to divorce his wife, Catherine of Aragon 81 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 5: because she didn't have a son after eighteen years, and 82 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 5: Mary Anne Bolin, the Pope won't recognize the divorce. Henry 83 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 5: breaks from the Pope, gets this English Bible, spreads it 84 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 5: around the country, dusts his hands and. 85 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 4: Says, that's it. We've broken from Rome, but something unexpected happened. 86 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 5: People began to read it and began to compare what's 87 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 5: in this Bible to this king divorcing and beheading his wives. 88 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 5: So a group starts that wants to purify the Church 89 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 5: of England and they are nicknamed the Puritans. The king 90 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 5: doesn't like them. But then there's another group that said, 91 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 5: it's beyond hope of pure find we're going to separate ourselves. 92 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 5: And they go by different names, Baptist Congregationalists, eventually the Quakers. 93 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 4: But this one group we call the Pilgrims. 94 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 5: And so they were a church group that had a 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 5: congregational church model, which is different than the hierarchical clergy 96 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 5: laity model. And so for most of history you had 97 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 5: the clergy do the ministry and the lady was lazy 98 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 5: and watched. And the congregational model is everybody's involved. The 99 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 5: pastor helps everyone to have their relationship with God through 100 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 5: Jesus and then coaches them to become mature Christians and 101 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 5: then plug into the body and do something. Because any 102 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 5: muscle to grow has to be exercised. You have to 103 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 5: get involved. And so the king didn't like this congregational 104 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 5: model and so King James said, I will make them 105 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 5: conform or I will harry them out of the land. 106 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 5: And so the King of England ask the Act of 107 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 5: Uniformity of Common Prayer. You do not make up prayers, 108 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 5: because you could make up one that's wrong. And so 109 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 5: the government wrote all the possible prayers they could think 110 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,799 Speaker 5: up down in a book called the Book of Common Prayer, 111 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 5: and when you wanted to pray, you just opened it 112 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 5: to the right page end you would read the prayer. 113 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 5: And if you're caught having a little group at your 114 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 5: house and you're making up your own prayers, the government, 115 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 5: like the FBI, will kick in the door and they 116 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 5: will arrest you, and they'll drag you off to some 117 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 5: government hearing room. It's called the Star Chamber because it 118 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 5: had stars on the ceiling, sort of a January sixth 119 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 5: type hearing room, and they would interrogorate, gates you, and 120 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 5: they would make you confess to stuff you didn't do, 121 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 5: and they'd make you try to snitch on your other 122 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 5: praying friends, and then they would brand you on the 123 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 5: face as a heretic and even cut off your ear, 124 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 5: and then they would stick you in a cell and 125 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 5: let you rode away in there for days, weeks, months, years. 126 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 4: Could you imagine the government doing this to their own citizens. 127 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 5: And one person that was caught was named John Bunyan, 128 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 5: and he was having a Bible study. 129 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 4: He had not gotten. 130 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 5: Approval of the government. He spent twelve years wasting away 131 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 5: in prison, and that's when he wrote Pilgrim's Progress, this 132 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 5: famous novel. And anyway, so these Pilgrims decide to flee. 133 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 5: They flee to Holland. Holland was seven provinces breaking away 134 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 5: from Spain. It took him eighty years to break away 135 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 5: from Spain. And they did not believe exactly the same 136 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 5: thing religiously, but they hated Spain so much they were 137 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 5: willing to work together. And so Holland had a little 138 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 5: give and take with the religion, and also with morals. 139 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 5: They had a little more immorality, but nevertheless, it was 140 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 5: the most tolerant place in Europe, was Holland. And so 141 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 5: the Pilgrims go there, and when Spain threatens to attack, 142 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 5: they decided to flee. Originally they were going to go 143 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 5: to Guyana, South America. They heard of the Perpetual Spring, 144 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 5: but then they heard it was too close to the 145 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:06,239 Speaker 5: Spanish Maine. That's the Caribbean era. People forget. The first 146 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 5: European settlement in North America was the French Protestants. They 147 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 5: were called Huguenots, and they settled around Jacksonville, Florida in 148 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 5: fifteen sixty five, and Spain found out about it and 149 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 5: butchered them. And so the Pilgrims didn't want to go 150 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 5: anywhere near where Spain was, and so they decided to 151 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 5: settle in Jamestown, which was started fourteen years earlier. 152 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 4: It was a king run colony. 153 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 5: But they figured there were three thousand miles away and 154 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 5: they could do their little pilgrim thing and not be noticed. 155 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 5: And so they set sail and they get caught in 156 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 5: a storm. 157 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 4: The boat leagues. They got to recock it. 158 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 5: They set sail again, at leaks again, they got to 159 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 5: swap it out for the little or mayflower. They're in 160 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 5: freezing North Atlantic. They threw a bunch of their food. 161 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 5: The main beam cracks. It's a three thousand mile journey, 162 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 5: sixty six days. They're confined to a between deck, little 163 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 5: four foot high space. One dies, another baby's born. I mean, 164 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 5: they make it to the New World, and they're five 165 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 5: hundred miles away. From Jamestown and the captain, Christopher Jones, 166 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 5: tries to sail south, but off the coast to Cape Cod. 167 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 5: It's really shallow. If you've ever been there, it's one 168 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 5: of those beaches where you could walk, you know, two 169 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 5: hundred yards out and it only comes up to your waist. 170 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 5: I mean, and plus it's really cold. But these ships 171 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 5: would get stuck on the sand like a half mile 172 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 5: out and in a storm, the waves would beat the ship. 173 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 5: And three thousand ships have sunk off the coast to 174 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 5: Cape Cod. But the Pilgrims almost sink. The captain gets free, 175 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 5: goes back to Cape Cod's it's too dangerous to sail. 176 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 5: Everyone off the boat and they raise their hand and say, 177 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 5: we have a question. 178 00:09:48,400 --> 00:10:03,719 Speaker 6: Who's going to be in charge? 179 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 2: You guys could check out our educator's summit which is 180 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: right on the heels of America Fest twenty twenty two 181 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: Educator Summit Courage and Conviction, and you guys can look 182 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 2: at that. At Turningpoint Academy dot com. Bill Fetter, I 183 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 2: think you're going to be presenting there. We're excited about that. Bill, 184 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 2: please continue, Sorry to cut you off because of the break. No. 185 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 5: Well, so these pilgrims are coming across and they land 186 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 5: at Plymouth Rock and the captain of the boat says 187 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 5: everyone off, and they say, well, who's going to be 188 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 5: in charge? We were going to go to Jamestown and 189 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 5: it's a king run colony and we were going to 190 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 5: submit to the king's government. But there's no government here. 191 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 5: We can't be lawless. Who's going to be in charge? 192 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 5: They do something unique. They give themselves the authority to 193 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 5: start a government. It's called the Mayflower Compact. Word compact 194 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 5: means covenant, and it says we, in the presence of God, 195 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 5: covenant ourselves into a civil body politic. So this is 196 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 5: a church group forming itself into a civil body politic. Again, 197 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 5: a church group forming itself into a political group. 198 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 4: This is the birth of America. A church group formed itself. 199 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 2: And they wrote that while they were still at sea, 200 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken, right, they weren't sure of their fate. 201 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: I mean, they were blown off course. And basically this 202 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: was a promisory note if they hit the shore, is 203 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: that right? 204 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 4: Right? And so? 205 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 5: But this was unique and where did they get this 206 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 5: idea from their pastor John Robinson, who was not an 207 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 5: Anglican king appointed pastor. He was one of these congregational pastors. 208 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 5: He was one of these Calvinist Puritans that looked back 209 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 5: to this ancient Israel that first four hundred years out 210 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 5: of Egypt, period before King Saul. And so they formed 211 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 5: themselves into a civil body politic and it goes on 212 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 5: to an act just and equal laws, as shall be 213 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 5: thought most meat, into which we promise all due submission. 214 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 5: Simple revolutionary. It was a polarity change in the flow 215 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 5: of power on planet Earth. Instead of top down rule 216 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 5: by kings, insultants and czars, it's rule bottom up by we, 217 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 5: just us in this little boat. We're going to decide. 218 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 5: And it's the difference between a dead pyramid rule top 219 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 5: down and a living tree where every roote and every 220 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 5: tiny capillary route sucks in nutrients to keep the tree alive. 221 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 5: Every citizen is involved in church, and every citizen is 222 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 5: involved in the community. And so this becomes the model 223 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 5: for the other New England colonies and eventually the US Constitution. 224 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: And yeah, so then to talk about just for a 225 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 2: second here, Bill, they tried socialism, didn't they, And it 226 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 2: didn't go well. 227 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, this is interesting. So the Pilgrims didn't have money, 228 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 5: and so they approached investors in England who formed the 229 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 5: London Company. And the company had by laws, and they 230 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 5: weren't really thrilled with this, and they were sort of 231 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 5: at the very last minute already on the boat and 232 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 5: they come with these papers and you say, you got 233 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 5: a shop, so they sign it. But these bylaws specified 234 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 5: that everything would be owned in common. Everything gained by cooking, hunting, fishing, trading, 235 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 5: you shall go into Yee common stock. And everyone's are 236 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 5: to have their meat, drinking apparel and all provision out 237 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 5: of Yee common stock. Right, so everybody works goes into 238 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 5: this pot and then everybody gets paid out of it. 239 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 5: They tried it, and they almost starved to death. William Bradford, 240 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 5: the governor of the Pilgrims, writes, the failure of that 241 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 5: experiment of communal service, which was tried for several years 242 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 5: by good and honest men, proves the emptiness of the 243 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 5: theory of Plato and other ancients, applauded by some of 244 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 5: latter times that taking away at private property and possession 245 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 5: of it in community would make the state happy and flourishing, 246 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 5: as if they were wiser than God. In this instance, 247 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 5: community of property was found to breathe much confusion and 248 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 5: discontent regard much employment. For the young men who were 249 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 5: most able and fit for service, objected to being forced 250 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 5: to spend their time and strength and working for other 251 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 5: men's wives and children without any recompense. The stronger man 252 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 5: or the resourceful man, had no more share of food, clothes, 253 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 5: et cetera. Than the weak man, who was not able 254 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 5: to do a quarter with the other good. This was 255 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 5: thought injustice. The agent and graver men, who were ranked 256 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 5: and equalized in labor, food, closed, etc. With the humbler 257 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 5: and younger ones, thought it some indignity and disrespect. And 258 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 5: then I thought this was interesting. 259 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 7: He says. 260 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 5: As for men's wives who were obliged to do service 261 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 5: for other men, such as cooking, washing their clothes, etc. 262 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 5: They considered it a kind of slavery, and many husbands 263 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 5: would not brook it or allow it. And William Bradford 264 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 5: goes on, let none argue that this is due to 265 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 5: human failing. Rather than do this communistic plan of life 266 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 5: in itself, he says, I answer that God had another 267 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 5: plan of life fitter for them, and so they began 268 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 5: to consider how to raise more corn. They have much debate. 269 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 5: It was decided each man would plant corn for his 270 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 5: own household. But a novel idea incredible and it says 271 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 5: every family was assigned parcel of land. This was very successful, 272 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 5: made hands more industrious. The women now went willingly into 273 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 5: the field, but their little ones with them to plant corn, 274 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 5: while before they would allege weakness, and to have compelled 275 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 5: them would have been thought great oppression. So here are 276 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 5: these really religious people. I mean, I'm very as good 277 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 5: as you can get. They tried owning everything in common, 278 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 5: almost start to as they scrap it, give your own 279 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 5: plot of land. They began a bunnet harvest. And that's 280 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 5: when we celebrate Thanksgiving. 281 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: New slash democrats America as a republic, not a democracy. 282 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 8: The fact check true. 283 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: Email me directly Freedom at Charliekirk dot com.

If you're blown away by him, 298 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 2: you'll be blown away by the work we're doing there. Bill, 299 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 2: Sorry again, tough break there. Continue on what you were 300 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 2: saying and tell us about Squante. 301 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 302 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 5: So the pilgrims switched from company to covenant. The company 303 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 5: by laws that says, Okay, here's this system. We're going 304 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 5: to take it away from you and we're going to 305 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 5: distribute it to Look, you get your own pot of land, 306 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 5: you grow, you become prosperous, and then you voluntarily take 307 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 5: care of your neighbor because you're doing it as unto God. 308 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 5: And so you have the pilgrim pastor was John Robinson. 309 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 5: He says, we are knitted together as a body in 310 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 5: covenant of the Lord. We so hold ourselves tied to 311 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 5: all to care for each other's good. Margaret Thatcher, she writes, 312 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 5: your founding father's look after one another not only as 313 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 5: a matter of necessity, but as a matter of duty 314 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 5: to their God. And then the founder of the Puritan Massachusetts, 315 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 5: John Winthrop, gives his famous speech in sixteen thirty This 316 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 5: love among Christians is a real thing, not imaginary, as 317 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 5: absolutely necessary to the being of the body of Christ. 318 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 5: We are a company professing ourselves fellow members of Christ. 319 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 5: We ought to account ourselves. Knit together by this bond 320 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 5: of love. We must make one another's condition our own. 321 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 5: Rejoice together, more together, labor and suffer together. We shall 322 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 5: find that the God of Israel is among us. You know, 323 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 5: people say, well, it wasn't the early Church socialists. No, 324 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 5: the early Church was the early Church. Socialism is counterfeit 325 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 5: early Church. And the difference is between the word voluntary 326 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 5: and involuntary. Right, So you're blessed with goods and then 327 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 5: you voluntarily take care of your neighbor because you're doing 328 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 5: as unto God socialism, there is no God. You get 329 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 5: the goods from the state and you don't own anything. 330 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 5: So if you don't own anything, how can you be charitable? 331 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 5: How can you give away what you don't have? No 332 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 5: God entrusts you with stuff and then gives you opportunities 333 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 5: to give away anyway. So that's an important aspect that 334 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 5: we look back to the Pilgrims. But one of the 335 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 5: stories that we have to include is Squanto, and if 336 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 5: I have a few minutes, I'll be happy. 337 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: To share that continue. 338 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 5: So the Pilgrims were religious, but there were other groups 339 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 5: that weren't, and they were pirates. So Spain had a 340 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 5: monopoly on the New World for at least a century, 341 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 5: and they had gold from Inca, Peru and from Bortobello, Panama, 342 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 5: and they'd take it to Cuba and ship it. And 343 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 5: these Dutch and French and English pirates would raid the gold. 344 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 5: But they would also sail up the coast of North America, 345 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 5: lewer unsuspecting Indians on board, lock them below deck, take 346 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 5: them over to Malaga, Spain, and sell them into slavery. 347 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 5: So one of the Indians that was captured was Squanto, 348 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 5: and the story is he was purchased by some monks 349 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 5: in Spain who gave him his freedom. He hitchhikes his 350 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 5: way across Europe, gets to England. He's there for a 351 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 5: dozen years, working learning the language, and the file finds 352 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 5: some business that takes him to Newfoundland right a fishing 353 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 5: type outfit, and then he gets the boat to drop 354 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 5: him off at Plymouth, Massachusetts, only to find his whole 355 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 5: tribe is dead. They were wiped out by a plague. 356 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 5: William Bradford writes that three years earlier a French ship 357 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 5: was shipwrecked off the case the coast of Cape Cod 358 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 5: sailors got ashore. Indians never left, watching them and bogging 359 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 5: them until they got the advantage. Killed them all but 360 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 5: three or four made support with them worse than slaves. Anyway, 361 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 5: one of those Frenchmen must have had an illness, and 362 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 5: the Indians didn't have immunity, and it wipes out the tribe, 363 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 5: so sort of in a reverse sense, had Squanto not 364 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 5: been captured and kidnapped, he most certainly would have died. 365 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 5: But Squanto's living with the neighboring Wampaoag tribe. And then 366 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 5: that fall is when the Pilgrims show up. Half of 367 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 5: the pilgrims die the first winter. They wouldn't have survived 368 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 5: another year. Spring of sixteen twenty one. Walking into their camp, 369 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 5: up is Squanto and you can just picture the conversation. 370 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 5: I mean, he's in his loin cloth and he goes 371 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 5: up and he goes, oh, yeah, you guys from London. 372 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 5: I used to live there, you know. Oh yeah, the 373 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 5: pub down on Wharf Street or Saint Paul's. Chaffler goes, 374 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 5: oh yeah, yeah, I know that place. And then he says, 375 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 5: oh this place here, I grew up here. I know 376 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 5: this place like the back of my hand. Over that 377 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 5: hills the spring and William Bradford says he taught him 378 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 5: how to catch fish. He said, you know that they 379 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 5: weren't successful, but he says, do you know salmon they spawned? 380 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 5: This river is going to be packed. And then he 381 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 5: taught them how to plant corn. They said, we tried it. 382 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 5: He goes, no, you got to dig a hole, put 383 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 5: some fish in, then put the kernel of corn in 384 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 5: and cover it up. 385 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 4: The fish decomposed fertilizes the soil. You have a nice harvest. 386 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 5: Taught him how to take the corn and put it 387 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 5: in a pot, shake it and make popcorn, right, and 388 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 5: then he taught him how to go down to the 389 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 5: river bank squeegee in the mud and catch eels and 390 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 5: clams and lobsters, and then how to catch beaver skins. 391 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 5: It took forty years worth of beaver skins to pay 392 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 5: off their debt for the boat ride. Right, They didn't 393 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 5: have It wasn't like Latin in South America with gold. 394 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 5: It wasn't like tobacco in Virginia. It's sort of interesting 395 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 5: that the Indians in Virginia were healthy and they smoked 396 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 5: tobacco and peace pipes, and so the Englishmen were like, okay, 397 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 5: Indians are healthy. 398 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 4: They smoked tobacco. 399 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 5: Tobacco must make you healthy, and so it became a 400 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 5: craze in London where doctors would prescribe tobacco anyway, But 401 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 5: that was Virginia's cash crop. Massachusetts didn't have anything other 402 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 5: than beaver skins, and it took forty years of beaver 403 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 5: skins for these pilgrims to pay off those investors for 404 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,360 Speaker 5: their boat ride. But Squanto was their interpreter, put them 405 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,479 Speaker 5: on good terms with the Indians, and they had an 406 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 5: abundant harvest and they had their first Thanksgiving. Now half 407 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 5: the pilgrims died the first winter, so there was one 408 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 5: hundred and two of them, so you're basically down to 409 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 5: fifty one ninety. Indians show up nearly twice as many 410 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 5: Indians were at the first Thanksgiving than Pilgrims, and the 411 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 5: Indian show up with deer and turkey, and the end 412 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 5: of the day the Indians roll up in their blankets 413 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 5: and go to sleep, and the next day they're there, 414 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 5: and Thanksgiving goes on a second day and they're doing 415 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 5: foot races and arm wrestling, and then they roll up 416 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 5: in their blankets, go to sleep, and the next day 417 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 5: they're still there. So the first Thanksgiving went on for 418 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 5: three days. So it's just an interesting aspect that they 419 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 5: were at peace with each other. Matter of fact, a 420 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 5: year later the chief massive, so it gets sick and 421 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 5: the pilgrim, Edward Winslow, goes and doctors him up and 422 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 5: he recovers, and so that turned into a fifty year 423 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 5: piece that the Pilgrims and the Indians had. And now 424 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 5: the little fine print, if you doctor an Indian chief 425 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 5: and he dies, you die, so sort of serious when 426 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 5: he went in there, but this was just a wonderful 427 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 5: the Pilgrims would not have survived had it not been 428 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 5: for Squanto, and. 429 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 2: Then also another Yeah, so it kind of summarize all that. 430 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 2: What do you think, you know, Bill, are some of 431 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 2: the one or two big lessons from all that that 432 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 2: apply to today. 433 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 3: And you know. 434 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: That we can really kind of pry away from then 435 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 2: and internalized for what we're living through. 436 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 5: Well, personally the thought of Squanto being sold into slavery 437 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 5: and then rescuing the Pilgrims. You got the Bible story 438 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 5: of Joseph being sold into slavery by his brothers, but 439 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 5: then he goes down to Egypt and becomes right hand 440 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 5: to the Pharaoh and he provides for the other children 441 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 5: of Israel to survive. So sometimes the pains that you 442 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 5: go through in your life, the Good Lord can use 443 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 5: those to later have you be able to minister to 444 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 5: somebody else that's going through struggles. One of the things 445 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 5: I point out in history is there's two threads, greed 446 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 5: and the Gospel. And you always have people motivated by 447 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 5: the Gospel, and they're the ones that want to be 448 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 5: friends with the Indians. And today, you know, they dig 449 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 5: wells and villages and start hospitals and medical clinics and schools. 450 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 4: Most of the schools and universities are started by churches. 451 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 5: But then you always have people motivated by greed, and 452 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 5: they're the ones that take land from the Indians, sell 453 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 5: people into slavery, and vote for candidates they think will 454 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 5: help their pocketbook even though they stand for immorality. Those 455 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 5: two threads go through each of our hearts every single day, 456 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 5: and we have to make choices. Are we going to 457 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 5: do what benefits us or what's better for our kids 458 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 5: in the next generation. 459 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: That is the question, isn't it. And so you know, 460 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 2: we're living through a period of time right now, Bill, 461 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 2: where a lot of people are looking for things to 462 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 2: be thankful for. Can you just talk more broadly about 463 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: the moral necessity to be deliberately thankful at least a 464 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 2: day or a season every single year. 465 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 466 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 5: Well, the Founding era, they had this understanding of a 467 00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 5: relationship with a personal God, and so through the history, 468 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 5: when things were bad, they would have days of prayer. 469 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 5: When things were real bad, they would have days of 470 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 5: fasting and prayer, and then when things turned around, they 471 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 5: would have days of thanksgiving. One time there was actually 472 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 5: a famine and they had a day of fasting and 473 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,959 Speaker 5: a book comes in the harbor with supplies. They canceled 474 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 5: the day of fasting and they have a day of thanksgiving. 475 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 5: And then you go through the Continental Congress. They had 476 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 5: a day of prayer and fasting two months before they 477 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 5: did the Declaration of Independence. And then you have after 478 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 5: the victory at Saratoga, they have a day of thanksgiving. 479 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 5: They captured six thousand of the British. I mean this, 480 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 5: British have the most powerful military in the world, and 481 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 5: we capture six thousand of their soldiers. So we have 482 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 5: a national day of thanksgiving. And then George Washington has 483 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 5: a day of thanksgiving when we finally do the constitution 484 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 5: of the Bill of Rights, so he's thanking God for 485 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 5: our form of government. You come up to, oh, the 486 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 5: War of eighteen twelve, James Madison has a day of fasting, 487 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 5: and then after the war as a day of thanksgiving. 488 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 5: But Lincoln's the one who made the day of Thanksgiving 489 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 5: an annual event, and then every president from Lincoln up 490 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 5: to the present has had a national day of Thanksgiving. 491 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 5: But it's you know, it's important for us to be grateful. 492 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:23,719 Speaker 5: You know when you are thankful that it is something 493 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 5: that the Good Lord will bless you even more if 494 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 5: you're thankful for what He's given you. I tell people 495 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 5: you know, in a sense, so sort of simplifying, God 496 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 5: has plan A and plan B. Plan A is he 497 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 5: blesses us so much and we turn to him out 498 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 5: of gratefulness. If that doesn't work, there is plan B. 499 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 3: It said. 500 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 5: He withholds his blessings right and he hides his face, 501 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 5: is what it says. And he lets us experience the 502 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 5: consequences of our selfish decisions, and when it gets bad, 503 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 5: we cry out to him out of desperation, and then 504 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 5: he delivers us. His goal is to have us turn 505 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 5: to him, and it's a whole lot easier. He blesses 506 00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 5: us and we turn to him out of gratefulness. 507 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 3: Amen, It's beautifully said.

It is Thanksgiving, Bill 521 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 2: Fetterers here. 522 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 3: Bill. 523 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 2: Some people are very upset right now about the kind 524 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 2: of rise of tyranny in America. 525 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 3: And what we have seen is the continued. 526 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 2: Advance of totalitarianism and authoritarianism. Let's kind of reflect a 527 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 2: little bit on the last year twenty twenty two. Bill, 528 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: What did you see that is giving you hope? That 529 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 2: historically shows us that the citizen is rising and that 530 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 2: the authoritarianism is going to finally be put on its heels. 531 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 5: Well, it is a crisis that causes people to wake up. 532 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 5: I tell people in times of crises that people turn 533 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 5: to Christ. But it's also in times of crisis that 534 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 5: leaders are raised up. And what are the stories in 535 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 5: the Bible that we love the most. 536 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: It's when it looks hopeless. 537 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 5: You got the Pharaoh charging in with his chariots, and 538 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 5: you got an eighty year old man Moses that stands up. 539 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 5: Or you have a huge Goliath and it looks hopeless, 540 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 5: and God raises up a teenager David. 541 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 4: There's Gideon. 542 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 5: There's one hundred thousand Midi Nights coming in and here, 543 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 5: you know, Gide with three hundred defeats him. It's almost 544 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 5: like the Good Lord likes to wait until things look 545 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 5: hopeless and then he raises up little nobodies with faith 546 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 5: and courage to turn things around. And this is just 547 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 5: our turn. But I do see that. For example, the 548 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 5: COVID causes parents to look over the shoulder their kids 549 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 5: and see what they're being taught, all this transgender type 550 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 5: of stuff, and they're like, wait a second. And now 551 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 5: parents are beginning to say, maybe I do need to 552 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 5: take more of an interest in what my kids are 553 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 5: being taught. 554 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 4: You know. 555 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 5: I use a little little illustration that you are a spirit, 556 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 5: mind and body. So your mind in a sense is 557 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 5: like a super fancy computer. It's more than that, but 558 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 5: it's at least that, and your body's like the computer case, 559 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 5: which makes it silly for people to argue over what 560 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 5: color the computer cases. Imagine if I were to say 561 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 5: blue computers are better than red computers, right, it doesn't 562 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 5: really matter what color the case is. What matters what 563 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 5: software is running on it. And so the battle is 564 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 5: who gets to load the software on the next generation's brains. 565 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 5: And is it you love your enemy to good to 566 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 5: them to bless you, or is it cancel them, get 567 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 5: them to lose their job. And the other side wants 568 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 5: to put their mailware and their viruses and their corrupted 569 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 5: files on these little kids' brains, right, And so the. 570 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 4: Battle is who gets to teach the next generation? That's 571 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 4: the prize. 572 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 5: And I think that parents are finally waken up and 573 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 5: realizing that we need to be involved. 574 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 2: Amen, Bill, tell us about you know, historically you write 575 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 2: a lot about this, about how sometimes your back is 576 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 2: up against the wall and you know, there's the odds 577 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,479 Speaker 2: scene against you, but we as Americans never give up. 578 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 3: Talk about that. 579 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, here when the revolution was taking place, we 580 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 5: were breaking away from a globalist king, the King of England, 581 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 5: code control thirteen million square miles, have a billion people. 582 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 4: The sun never set on the British Empire. 583 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 5: You know, in Australia, New Zealand, on calling British, Guyana, Canada, 584 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 5: of Barbados, Bermuna, Jamaica in America. 585 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 4: Yet here we are with a. 586 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 5: Ragtag group of people that decide we're going to stand 587 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 5: up to this globalist We're not going to cave. And 588 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 5: the Good Lord brings in France on our side, and 589 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 5: the Spanish help us behind the scenes, and then the Dutch, 590 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 5: and so it ends up with us standing encouraged that 591 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 5: the British Empire is forced to let us go and 592 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 5: we're able to have a country. 593 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: Where the citizen. The word citizen is Greek, it means 594 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 4: co king. 595 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 5: So you get to be a king with a little 596 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 5: k over your life, and all of us together are 597 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 5: king with the little k of the country. And you 598 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 5: have a voluntary opportunity to surrender your life to Jesus, 599 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 5: the king of kings. 600 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 4: But it's voluntary. 601 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 5: We're not talking dominionism, we're theocracy, or we're shoving someuth 602 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 5: down to your throat. Now, our founders were dedicated to 603 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 5: you having the freedom of conscience. And it goes back 604 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 5: to the concept that God is love and he wants 605 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 5: you to love him. But for love to be loved, 606 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 5: it must be voluntary. The moment it's forced and evaporates. 607 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 5: Jesus never forced anybody to follow him. We can't force 608 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:24,959 Speaker 5: anybody to follow him. But we want to have an 609 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 5: atmosphere where there's the freedom for people to choose, and 610 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 5: we don't want kids being indoctrinated with something that's anti faith. 611 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 5: But we're a country, so you have us breaking away. 612 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 5: You look at the War of eighteen twelve. The British 613 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 5: had a lot invested a lot of money in the 614 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 5: Bank of the United States, and they were beginning to 615 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 5: control our politics, sort of God's globalist bankers. And you 616 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 5: had James Madison canceled the charter of the Bank of 617 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 5: the United States because it had a good percentage of 618 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 5: it was European and English investments. And then they decided, 619 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 5: well they weren't happy. They declared war on us, and 620 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 5: so the War of eighteen twelve and then kind of 621 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 5: look at the Civil War anyway, a lot more there, 622 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 5: but we are. 623 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 2: Never surrender is the lesson on this Thanksgiving you thought 624 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 2: to be thankful for Bill Feeder.

I think the canned cranberry 931 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 11: is a must on the table. 932 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 8: However, you have to have it, you have to have 933 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:11,320 Speaker 8: a second. 934 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 11: In Arizona we have jalapeno cranberries incredible. 935 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 3: If you haven't had it, I know you're regionalizing this 936 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 3: too much. Good, No, No, this is. 937 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 8: It adds a little spice. It's just a little bit. 938 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 10: It's like when I went to the Grand Canyon last 939 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 10: summer and I discovered that. I guess they just sell 940 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 10: like prickly pair everything at every Arizona Yeah. 941 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, something that's that's anywhere. 942 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 11: So I have a question for everybody though, And this 943 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 11: is getting deep into the weeds. So we talked about 944 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 11: stuffing or dressing. Moist stuffing or dry stuffing. 945 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 2: It's got to be dry, but the gravy makes it moist. 946 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 2: If you make it too moist, make it more moist 947 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 2: for the gravy. 948 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:53,439 Speaker 3: You can't. 949 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 2: It has to be on the spectrum of tilt moist, 950 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 2: but not too much, because if it's too then it's 951 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 2: just it's too brittle and brittle. There's nothing worse than 952 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 2: brittle dressing. 953 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:09,280 Speaker 7: So dressing, I'm noticing that you call it dressing. 954 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 2: It should be stuffing. However, I've been corrected many times. 955 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 2: I've always called stuffing even though it's not technically stuffing 956 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 2: unless it's within the turkey. 957 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 8: Yes, dressings outside, No, it's not. 958 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 2: No, I grew up calling it stuffing even though we 959 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 2: never put it in the turkey. 960 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 9: But it's the I mean, I get that, but the 961 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 9: type of food would be called still stuffing. 962 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 7: Dressing is like for salads. 963 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:32,320 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no. 964 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 8: No, dressing is outside. 965 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 7: I reject that completely. Stuffing is like a. 966 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 10: Type of food and its like it should be used 967 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 10: to stuff in it. But it is still stuffing even 968 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:44,319 Speaker 10: if it's not doing this. 969 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 8: There's lots of dressing. 970 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 7: Us the name properly, but we but we still call 971 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 7: it that. 972 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 4: I'm used to be. 973 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 3: I'm excited every Thanksgiving at this point.

By 1069 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 2: the way, do you think that pecan pie can also 1070 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:34,800 Speaker 2: make an appearance? Yeah, okay, can be there, but pumpkin 1071 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 2: is the only can pie. I actually prefer more than 1072 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 2: pumpkin pie. However, I must have a slice of pumpkin pie. 1073 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 9: Wait, wait, were you always like that though when you 1074 00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 9: were little? 1075 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 2: My mom makes a killer pecan pie. Okay, Like destroys 1076 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 2: the world. 1077 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 7: Okay, what about so when I was younger, I was 1078 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 7: always pumpkin. 1079 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 2: But then well, now now we're getting into chocolate pecan pie, 1080 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,280 Speaker 2: and that's where you just surrender. 1081 00:55:58,960 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 7: You're just done at that. 1082 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 9: So you throw you throw it because guys, you know, 1083 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 9: folks who don't know Charlie, you're usually pretty strict with 1084 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:05,320 Speaker 9: your diet. 1085 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 2: You're very strict. It's like, I mean, you're usually alive. No, no, no, 1086 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,400 Speaker 2: But Thanksgiving is different. Thanksgiving you go all in and 1087 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:13,439 Speaker 2: it is. It is a holy day. By the way, 1088 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 2: I think Thanksgiving is one of America's greatest traditions. It 1089 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 2: is because it's a day just to give thanks I 1090 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:20,240 Speaker 2: think it's uniquely awesome. 1091 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 9: Talk about that for a little bit, because there's you 1092 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 9: know a lot of people say, well, it's you know, 1093 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 9: it's just about the it's you know, it's the Indians, 1094 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 9: it's the Pilgrims. 1095 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 3: Everything is what you make of her. 1096 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 7: There's no God involved. Why why do you well not? 1097 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,359 Speaker 3: First of all, the Pilgrims were definitely giving thanks to God. 1098 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:34,879 Speaker 4: Let's work. 1099 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 2: They we're not giving, you know, thanks to Brahmin, but 1100 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:41,280 Speaker 2: they're giving thanks to the Almighty God. And but yeah, Secondly, 1101 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 2: I just think it's amazing, especially during the season where 1102 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 2: we have such abundance and we won the election, that 1103 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 2: there's a day where you just stop and you say 1104 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,080 Speaker 2: thank you, which then of course acknowledges you're saying thank 1105 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 2: you to a higher power. And I don't know of 1106 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 2: another nation or another country that has a day of gratitude. 1107 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 2: I think I actually said this once and I guess 1108 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 2: there was like some random African country that has it. 1109 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:02,719 Speaker 2: And that's fine. I got like in trouble for saying 1110 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 2: this last year. Yeah, okay, so fine. I guess Senegal 1111 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 2: has has a day like that. I'll look it up. 1112 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 9: However, great job Senegal or whatever. But but but following 1113 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 9: in some good footsteps, but a day of gratitude, I 1114 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 9: act I subscribe to the prager. 1115 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 2: Hopefully he's doing better. He's he's fighting like crazy right now. 1116 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 2: I believe he's really struggling. That happiness is impossible if 1117 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:23,160 Speaker 2: you were not grateful, and I believe that. I do 1118 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 2: not think you can have joy. I do not think 1119 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 2: you can have be content if you're not grateful. And 1120 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 2: I think it's a beautiful thing. As a nation, we 1121 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:29,560 Speaker 2: have a day to say thank you well. 1122 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 9: And shot on the nation always gave us the story 1123 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,439 Speaker 9: of Thanksgiving real quick notice, real quick, you know.

What 1140 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 9: a concept, what an incredible concept. But instead now it's 1141 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 9: all like, oh, the Pilgrims were dying and the Indians 1142 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 9: had to come and they saved the Pilgrims because they 1143 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 9: were stupid. Europeans didn't know anything, even though Squanto had 1144 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:36,040 Speaker 9: actually lived in Europe. Even he had been in London 1145 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 9: more recently than the Pilgrims had, so he spoke the 1146 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:39,920 Speaker 9: English so well. 1147 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 7: But of course you know facts. 1148 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 10: Sir Blake, you were saying something well, So first of all, 1149 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 10: I was saying, we should make fun of Canada for 1150 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 10: having their knockoff Thanksgiving that is just one month before ours. 1151 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 10: I think we should always see every opportunity to bully 1152 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:59,520 Speaker 10: Canada because it's fun, but also even like the full 1153 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,600 Speaker 10: story of Thanksgiving, because evil liberals always want to dunk 1154 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 10: on it, like it's even more beautiful than just the 1155 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,880 Speaker 10: Pilgrims doing it when they settled here, like the very 1156 00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 10: first like annual Thanksgiving national holiday, fourth Thursday in November, 1157 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 10: like clockwork that was started by Abraham Lincoln in eighteen 1158 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 10: sixty three, middle of the Civil War, the peak of 1159 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:23,640 Speaker 10: the Civil War. I think that's probably the bloodiest year 1160 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 10: of the Civil War. And he says, yes, like in 1161 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 10: the middle of this, we're going to have a celebration 1162 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 10: of National Thanksgiving, and like that was what said it 1163 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 10: as a national holiday. George Washington declared a day of Thanksgiving. 1164 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 10: It's truly, you know, it's a great thing, because it 1165 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 10: is possibly the one great national tradition that was created 1166 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 10: in America that we have had for the entire history 1167 00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:52,400 Speaker 10: of America.

I think I still 1259 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 10: have a PlayStation three that I got in twenty eleven. 1260 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 10: I think I can remember the exact deal. It was 1261 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 10: a PS slim two hundred and fifty dollars. It came 1262 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 10: with Little Big Planet and like some crummy Ratchet and 1263 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 10: Client game. 1264 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:35,800 Speaker 8: Who cares? 1265 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 10: But like that was the best deal you could get 1266 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:41,320 Speaker 10: for I think like two years after that point. But 1267 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 10: what ended up killing it was as you said, you know, 1268 01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:45,920 Speaker 10: you were you'd go for the time. And it used 1269 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,000 Speaker 10: to be okay, it was on Black Friday, normal hours. 1270 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:50,720 Speaker 10: Then they would open it at like six am in 1271 01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:52,880 Speaker 10: the morning and people would show it before. Then someone 1272 01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,680 Speaker 10: got ahead and made it, oh, let's open exactly at midnight. 1273 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 10: And then what finally killed it. I think the rise 1274 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,280 Speaker 10: of the Internet was a but another thing that killed 1275 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,280 Speaker 10: it was companies decided to get so green. They just said, 1276 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 10: we're doing Black Friday on Thanksgiving and they would just 1277 01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 10: be open on Thanksgiving with those deals. And I think 1278 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 10: to America's credit, there was popular backlash to this, where 1279 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:19,480 Speaker 10: they're saying, wait, you're forcing employees to skip Thanksgiving to 1280 01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 10: come in and work on Thanksgiving. Though, I must hedge, 1281 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:27,280 Speaker 10: I have to be personally grateful for the fact that 1282 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:29,919 Speaker 10: some that stores are open on Thanksgiving, some of them 1283 01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 10: because I visited a friend. 1284 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 7: This is about ten years ago. 1285 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:36,680 Speaker 10: I went down to a friend in Tennessee for Thanksgiving 1286 01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,800 Speaker 10: and I took a megabus down. You know, poor we 1287 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 10: have to travel by bus. And I took a megabus 1288 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 10: down and I had a bag under it. And I 1289 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:48,440 Speaker 10: had to get off in Chattanooga, which was the final 1290 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 10: destination was Atlanta, and they get out and they're. 1291 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 7: Like, Okay, where's your bag. 1292 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:53,360 Speaker 10: I'm like, oh, it's under the thing, and they open 1293 01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:55,680 Speaker 10: it and they feel around and they're like, ah, yeah, 1294 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 10: we can't find it. We have a schedule to do, 1295 01:04:57,920 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 10: we have we have to go, and they just drove 1296 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 10: away with my bag with all of my changes of clothes, 1297 01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 10: and I arrived late Wednesday night, so I had to 1298 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 10: go to a Walmart, which thanks to American capitalism, was 1299 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,160 Speaker 10: open on Thanksgiving, and I had to buy an entire 1300 01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:15,720 Speaker 10: set of clothes for the whole weekend. 1301 01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:18,320 Speaker 11: So I had that perspective. I actually one of my 1302 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 11: first jobs was in high school. 1303 01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 8: I took the. 1304 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 11: Seasonal job at Target and my first day, like first 1305 01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 11: real day, was Thanksgiving or Black Friday. So I had 1306 01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 11: to wake up after Thanksgiving when I was like a 1307 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:38,120 Speaker 11: sophomore in high school at like literally four am. I 1308 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 11: had to be at Target at four point thirty help 1309 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 11: stock everything. This was still in the days that they 1310 01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,440 Speaker 11: still opened the doors, like Charlie was talking about before, 1311 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,000 Speaker 11: they just like leave it open or open like super early, 1312 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 11: and there would be like I get there at like 1313 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,959 Speaker 11: four o'clock and there would be a line wrapped around 1314 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 11: the building if people waiting to get in, and we 1315 01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 11: had to stock everything. 1316 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,000 Speaker 7: So here's a crazy story. 1317 01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 10: So you guys, there's a myth that Black Friday is 1318 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,919 Speaker 10: the day after Thanksgiving. And you know what why that's 1319 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:13,400 Speaker 10: a myth because the real truth is, the real truth 1320 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:43,440 Speaker 10: is that Thanksgiving is the day before Black Friday. 1321 01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 7: I am not making it up. 1322 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 10: The current date of Thanksgiving is because of like an 1323 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:54,200 Speaker 10: evil plot by FDR. 1324 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:56,280 Speaker 7: No, I'm not making this up. 1325 01:06:56,320 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 10: So Lincoln's proclamation of Thanksgiving is Thanksgiving is on the 1326 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 10: last Thursday of the month. Yes, it is on the 1327 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 10: last Thursday. It is not on the last Thursday. It 1328 01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 10: is currently on the fourth Thursday of the month. That 1329 01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:11,880 Speaker 10: is what the federal law is. So there are sometimes. 1330 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 3: Five Fuyers of Friday. 1331 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 10: So there are sometimes five Thursdays in November, and then 1332 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 10: it would be on the fourth. It used to be 1333 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 10: on the fifth, and then during the Great Depression, I 1334 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:25,720 Speaker 10: believe in nineteen thirty nine, FDR got in his head 1335 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,080 Speaker 10: if there is a longer like if there's a longer 1336 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:32,160 Speaker 10: time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, there will be a longer 1337 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:36,000 Speaker 10: Christmas shopping season, and so people will shop more and 1338 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 10: this will stimulate the economy. And so he intervened and 1339 01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 10: he moved Thanksgiving to be a week earlier.
