0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:18.560

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:23.639
<v Speaker 1>what's coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show where

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:26.599
<v Speaker 1>the mission where mission is to decode what really matters

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:33.000
<v Speaker 1>with actionable intelligence, Make no mistakes, American, Bring You're a

0:00:33.000 --> 0:00:39.559
<v Speaker 1>great America Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a

0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>great guy. Now, welcome to Buck Backton Show. Everybody, Wednesday

0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:49.920
<v Speaker 1>before Thanksgiving. A lot of people are off today, a

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of people in the media business are taking their vacation.

0:00:52.520 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>You will notice that here I am in the Freedom

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Und with producer Brandon. We are holding down the fort.

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>We are on the front lines of freedom right now,

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>not just running off to eat our turkeys and our

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>mashed potatoes and obviously stuffing. I also have to say

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.039
<v Speaker 1>that I think stuffing should become something that you don't

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>just eat on Thanksgiving. Now, people might say to me, Buck,

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>how would you know there's gluten free stuffing? And it

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>is amazing, because all stuffing is fantastic. It's just an

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>excuse to eat little cubes of seasoned bread and then

0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>whatever other food you want, you drip into that and

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.400
<v Speaker 1>you turn into this like mush that absorbs all the

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 1>other the turkey, grayvy, the cranberry, the cranberry sauce, you

0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 1>know whatever other you know, this is the for someone

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>who has had just a box of crutons to eat stuffing,

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:44.280
<v Speaker 1>respect it exactly. I mean, all you need to do

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:46.080
<v Speaker 1>is take a box of crutons, add some water, kind

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>of mush it up, put it in the microwave. That yeah,

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:54.040
<v Speaker 1>instant stuffing boom. Minds blown everybody at home. No, we

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>are going to talk some news today. Obviously, I'm not

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>just gonna bring you here to hang out and talk

0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 1>about Thanksgiving things. Although I do have this vision in

0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:01.400
<v Speaker 1>my head that as all of you listened to this show,

0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 1>you are well, some of you will be on the

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:06.920
<v Speaker 1>road or in the well in the air if you've

0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 1>downloaded the show on podcast, you could listen. Because everyone

0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>travels quite not everybody, but a lot of people travel

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 1>quite a distance, travel quite a bit in order to

0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 1>get to see loved ones over this holiday. And so

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:26.239
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm hoping that I'm keeping you company

0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>for either your Thanksgiving travel or your pre Thanksgiving feast preparations.

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Because my understanding is I mean that turkey can take

0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 1>a really long time, especially if you have to thought so,

0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I guess you're not sitting there watching the turkey thaw.

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>That wouldn't be the most exciting thing ever. But there

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:44.919
<v Speaker 1>are certainly things that one can do to get ahead

0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>of the game. My family, we always have quite a

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:52.520
<v Speaker 1>spread of treats and suits and things before the main meal,

0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 1>and you pretty much have had a meal before you

0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 1>sit down for the big game. This year, I might

0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>try to I might try to leave alextra. So anyway, well,

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll get more into Thanksgiving. How people are triggered by Thanksgiving. Now,

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:09.839
<v Speaker 1>it's a colonial holiday. Nothing can be fun, nothing can

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 1>be something that brings all the American people. It's not

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a religious holiday. You can imbue it with your own

0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 1>religious significance if you want. But even still, the truth

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:24.639
<v Speaker 1>here is that it's something that we can't even look

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>at as a universe, a universal outside the jurisdiction of

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:33.360
<v Speaker 1>wokeness and political correctness. Holiday. I don't want to spend

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 1>too much time on that though. Hunter Biden back in

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>the news today, Oh man, you can tell I've got

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:43.600
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a little bit of the pre

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>holiday time to roll. Let's get out there and party

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.240
<v Speaker 1>vibe going here. But I'm gonna I'm gonna do the show.

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.200
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be strong show today. It's gonna be a

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:52.840
<v Speaker 1>strong show. It's not by the way, this is some

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>people do their Thanksgiving Wednesday show like a week in

0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>advance or something. No, none of that, None of that

0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:01.160
<v Speaker 1>week saws here, none of that week thing in gravy

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 1>in the Freedom Hut. We're doing a real show. Producer,

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Brandon's here. Does he want to be here now? He

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>wants to be sitting eating a giant turkey drumstick, hanging out,

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 1>probably watching football, But instead we're doing a show. Hunter

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Biden back in the news. Let's get into that for

0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 1>a moment, shall we. He's back in the news because

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.839
<v Speaker 1>there is a report from the New York Post that

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:25.239
<v Speaker 1>says that Hunter Biden is believed this is what. It says,

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Hunter Biden suspected of smoking crack in DC strip club

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 1>vip room. And to this, I say, this is just

0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.960
<v Speaker 1>an allegation. There's no proof of this yet, and perhaps

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Hunter Biden just needed to find a quiet place to

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>read up on strategies to improve the efficiencies of the

0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.599
<v Speaker 1>Ukrainian natural gas market. Because we know he's quite an

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:51.359
<v Speaker 1>expert in that. But this is the fellow that the

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:55.400
<v Speaker 1>media will immediate will immediately jump down your throat, They

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 1>will yell at you, they will be quite upset at

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:04.359
<v Speaker 1>you if you say anything about how it seemed quite

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 1>corrupt for this fellow to be on the board when

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 1>his father was. It seems like something you wouldn't allow

0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>to happen if you were really concerned with good governance

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:17.000
<v Speaker 1>and avoiding the appearance of corruption. In fact, there is

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>a piece today I read about what ethics rules usually

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 1>are for a White House, and it's supposed to be

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>that the mere perception the appearance of corruption is enough

0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>for someone to recuse themselves from an area, which raises

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:36.479
<v Speaker 1>the question, why wouldn't Joe Biden step away from the

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Ukraine portfolio if his son was in fact going to

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>be on the board of this company. Why not? What

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:45.560
<v Speaker 1>is there to lose? We have so many experts on Ukraine,

0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.720
<v Speaker 1>as you've seen, We've had all these people come forward

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>who you know. I've been working on Ukraine for the

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:53.360
<v Speaker 1>National Security Council for the last fifteen years. I'm the

0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 1>world's greatest expert on Ukraine. All these different figures all

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.680
<v Speaker 1>these folks coming forward to tell us what needs to

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:03.599
<v Speaker 1>happen with Russia and Ukraine, and yet here we are

0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 1>now being told that it was obvious that there was

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 1>an appearance of corruption between Hunter Biden and his father

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:18.719
<v Speaker 1>on the situation with Barisma. And also this guy is

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.480
<v Speaker 1>quite a disaster, really, I mean, Hunter Biden has had

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:26.160
<v Speaker 1>a track record that's stunning. The fact that he has

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>worked with some of the law firms and different organizations

0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>that he has given the reality of his past is

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 1>just further testament to in fact, how corrupt he really is,

0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 1>how much this was a perception at least of a

0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:47.279
<v Speaker 1>pay for play scheme. And can't that be enough If

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 1>I am going to be a Ukrainian oligarch, if I'm

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>going to wargain this out from their perspective, if I'm

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the head of Barisma, I don't need to necessarily write

0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>out some contract for Hunter Biden that says you will

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 1>speak to your father and do something illegal here in

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.039
<v Speaker 1>order to help us. I just want you on the

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 1>board so that people know that you're protected. You know,

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>within the ranks of the mafia. If there's a made

0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>guy who is with you, it doesn't really matter if

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 1>the made guy is telling everybody you can't touch this

0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.480
<v Speaker 1>other individual or not because he's rolling with a made

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>guy for our purposes. In this analogy, Hunter Biden was

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>like a maide mafioso. You couldn't you can't touch him.

0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>This is also in the movie That Departed with Jack Nicholson.

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 1>He goes, it's actually Jack Nicholson's right hand man whose

0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 1>name I forget from the movie, who says there are

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:42.920
<v Speaker 1>guys you can't touch, and you know, Leonardo DiCaprio gets

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a lesson and who he can't and can't hit. Essentially,

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Hunter Biden on the board of Barisma was this is

0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:51.120
<v Speaker 1>a company that it's going to be harder to hit

0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 1>at least, and that's why he was there. He also

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.360
<v Speaker 1>was in a place, an establishment that I lived very

0:07:56.440 --> 0:08:01.960
<v Speaker 1>near in DC called Archibalds, which that that is the

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 1>allegation in the New York Post. I cannot say whether

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 1>or not this is archibald Is. It's considered a gentleman's club.

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I do not think there are a whole lot of

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>gentlemen who frequent this establishment. It was a point of

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>jest for many of us in DC to say, who

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 1>goes it's right on K Street, right near some of

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:21.880
<v Speaker 1>the big fancy law firms, is right in the midst

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 1>of all the swampiness. You have this, uh, I believe

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:29.400
<v Speaker 1>the gentleman's club, cabarets and it's a strip club, right, So,

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, we use these different terms, but it's

0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:35.600
<v Speaker 1>a strip club I have. I don't even know anybody

0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:38.360
<v Speaker 1>in DC who's been in this place. It is it

0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:42.240
<v Speaker 1>has something of a place of ill, of some ill repute.

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 1>I think you could say Hunter Biden might have been

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 1>and it's not just a hundred bids in there. He

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>might have been there, according to the York Post smoking crack,

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 1>which is pretty stunning. And this guy's father is supposed

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.599
<v Speaker 1>to now be according to Democrats, than the presidents of

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:59.360
<v Speaker 1>the United States coming up in twenty twenty. This is

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 1>what this is what I keep coming back to. You

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>have Democrats who complain and cry about how Trump is

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:10.319
<v Speaker 1>ruining the prestige or the presidency and that he is

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:15.080
<v Speaker 1>so not presidential in his approach and that we need

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:17.120
<v Speaker 1>people who are just more serious in the role. And

0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:23.080
<v Speaker 1>then they offer up Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Bernie Sander,

0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:25.120
<v Speaker 1>They offer up these figures that I look at them

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 1>and I said, this is I mean, the Democratic Party

0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>is not sending us their best? Are they Is this

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>really their best? I think they would have to answer yes,

0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.559
<v Speaker 1>they have no other alternative right now. People are very

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:41.960
<v Speaker 1>concerned in Democrat ranks. I'm starting to see this percolating

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.400
<v Speaker 1>through the media. You'll also hear people behind closed doors

0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>and in back channel talking about this that if Bernie

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:50.720
<v Speaker 1>or perhaps even Warren were to get the nomination, certainly Bernie,

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.560
<v Speaker 1>it has been said that Barack Obama might speak out

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:57.000
<v Speaker 1>against or I should say, before he could get the nomination.

0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:59.199
<v Speaker 1>If it looks like he would, Barack Obama may speak

0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>out against Bernie Sanders. That would cause quite a fracture

0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:06.600
<v Speaker 1>in the Democratic Party, and I'm not sure how they

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.400
<v Speaker 1>would really be able to handle that unless there was

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:12.480
<v Speaker 1>some plan to put a long shot or not I

0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't say long shot, a as yet undeclared candidate in

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:19.880
<v Speaker 1>the mix. And this is where we get into our

0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>is it Hillary's at Michelle Obama? People have thrown around

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the name Oprah here as well. Look, I how could

0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:30.439
<v Speaker 1>anyone say that Oprah wouldn't be a serious candidate when

0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>you see the candidacy that Donald Trump was able to

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.280
<v Speaker 1>run as somebody who really understands media. Donald Trump is

0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.199
<v Speaker 1>a free media genius. This is how he was able

0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:42.720
<v Speaker 1>to beat Hillary Clinton. He understands how to create a story,

0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 1>how to create drauma and tension through the press. And

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 1>they always think that because they're able to put their

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.200
<v Speaker 1>spin on things, that they're doing more damage to Trump

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.720
<v Speaker 1>than benefit that he's getting out of it. The reality

0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 1>is that they're often showing everybody who they are and

0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:04.400
<v Speaker 1>putting shining the light on Trump or some issue that

0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 1>he wants to talk about. So Hunter Biden and the

0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:10.800
<v Speaker 1>corruption situation is going to continue to be a problem

0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:13.920
<v Speaker 1>for Democrats. I'll never forget Anderson Cooper. The only really

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:17.880
<v Speaker 1>memorable moment of whatever Democrat debate that was where he said,

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:22.640
<v Speaker 1>there's no evidence or without evidence to Joe Biden that

0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 1>you did anything wrong in Ukraine. Well, no, there's there's

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 1>no allegation of criminal conduct, but there's already proof of

0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:32.520
<v Speaker 1>doing something wrong. What they did was gross, it was unethical,

0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 1>just like they can make the claim that what President

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Trump did on that phone call with the Ukrainian president,

0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:45.880
<v Speaker 1>President Lensky, that that was unethical. They can make that argument.

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 1>I disagree with it, but it's not illegal. And the

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 1>pretense that it is illegal the make believe story. The

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Democrats tell themselves that if they just get upset enough

0:11:56.040 --> 0:12:00.480
<v Speaker 1>about this and talk enough about this, they will managed

0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to convince people that this is that it was illegal.

0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:05.959
<v Speaker 1>Just goes to show you that they're willing to twist

0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the law in ways that it is unrecognizable in order

0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:13.640
<v Speaker 1>to go after a the primary political opponent right now,

0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:16.600
<v Speaker 1>who is who is Donald Trump? So we should look

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:17.719
<v Speaker 1>at this, by the way, Josh I think it is.

0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Josh Hammer wrote a great piece in The New York

0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Post where he's saying, we have to stop focusing in

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:25.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of New York Post shout outs today. I

0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:26.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know what. I don't know what's all about. You know,

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 1>the Post is a it's a good paper. You know,

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:32.000
<v Speaker 1>it's a got a good editorial page, headline, the best

0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:35.679
<v Speaker 1>headlines in the business. I'll give them that. But the

0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Post today has this piece by Josh Hammer where he's

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.679
<v Speaker 1>talking about how by fighting on the issue of the

0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:48.079
<v Speaker 1>quid pro quo, where not really understanding what is at

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.560
<v Speaker 1>stake here and what the issues really are because quid

0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:52.920
<v Speaker 1>pro quos do happen all the time. Mick mulvaney was right,

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>even though he got, you know, just hammered for this.

0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Mick mulvaney was correct when he said they're quid pro

0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 1>quos in foreign policy all the time. And so Hammer

0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 1>says in his editorial, and this is a continuate or

0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.079
<v Speaker 1>a version, I should say of what I've been telling

0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:12.520
<v Speaker 1>you that because politicians have First Amendment rights to say

0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:16.439
<v Speaker 1>different things about what they're going to do in policy,

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:19.079
<v Speaker 1>because they have the right to speak and share their ideas.

0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:22.640
<v Speaker 1>To criminalize someone saying do this or and I will

0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:26.360
<v Speaker 1>do this as a politician in the way the Democrats

0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:29.360
<v Speaker 1>are trying to do would open itself to all kinds

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.000
<v Speaker 1>of mischief. Then the issue of the quid pro quo

0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>just becomes do democrats like this quid pro quo or

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.640
<v Speaker 1>not is in an abuse of power or not based

0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:41.440
<v Speaker 1>upon their perception of whether there is some benefit for

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:45.160
<v Speaker 1>the president. You know, bribery is a very specific thing.

0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.480
<v Speaker 1>They have tried to expand the definition of bribery to

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:50.800
<v Speaker 1>include this will Look, you're a politician who does things

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.520
<v Speaker 1>in the political realm. If this thing that you want

0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.559
<v Speaker 1>done gets done, it would be good for you politically.

0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Therefore you're guilty of bribery. As I've been saying along,

0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:04.400
<v Speaker 1>this is absurd. That means that any political act could

0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:08.839
<v Speaker 1>conceivably be construed a construed as bribery, which just goes

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:11.400
<v Speaker 1>to show you that if everything is bribery, nothing is bribery.

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:15.040
<v Speaker 1>So I think that that's that's it's gone into the

0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>level of silliness. It's absurd. But they're going to continue

0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.360
<v Speaker 1>on with this. There's no doubt in my mind that

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are going to impeach this president, No no doubt whatsoever,

0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>because there's no feasible way for them to back away

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:31.760
<v Speaker 1>at this point. They have to. They have to do

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.000
<v Speaker 1>this in their in their own minds. That's what's going

0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 1>to happen. M And with that, my friends, I want

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:42.760
<v Speaker 1>to turn to a fellow from the d n C

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.640
<v Speaker 1>vice chair I believe of the DNC appeared yesterday on

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Fox News Hold one second, and I was saying he

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>had a member of the d n C senior staff.

0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I believe he's the vice president, vice chair something of

0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>the DNC. Um I've I've had him on my show

0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>before at the Hill. I found him to be uh

0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:06.200
<v Speaker 1>snyde and rude, and he was quite snyde and rude

0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>when he appeared on. Michael Blake is a DNC vice chair.

0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.160
<v Speaker 1>That's that's right. This is what he shows up on

0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Fox News to talk about Democratic candidates, and this is

0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:18.120
<v Speaker 1>what he does play clips. Well, she's not running. But

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the core question is why I held to suck a

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.720
<v Speaker 1>car is still have a job here in the first place.

0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:25.320
<v Speaker 1>The reality is this is someone who said white supremacy

0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:28.040
<v Speaker 1>is a hoax, and why does Fox allow him to

0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:29.680
<v Speaker 1>still be here in the first place? Right? Well, I

0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.280
<v Speaker 1>mean his opinion there is that Michelle Obama may get

0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:34.400
<v Speaker 1>in this race. Do you think that will happen or

0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:37.240
<v Speaker 1>is not gonna happen? Not going to happen. But I

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>think the core question is he shouldn't be on here

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:41.080
<v Speaker 1>at all. Yeah, we didn't bring you on to talk

0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.200
<v Speaker 1>about Tucker Carlson. I brought you on to talk about

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.760
<v Speaker 1>the Democratic field. This is somebody who's representing the Democratic

0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 1>National Committee. This is who's supposed to show us that

0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.160
<v Speaker 1>we would be at a better we'd be heading to

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:57.240
<v Speaker 1>a better politics if we only had a Democrat president

0:15:57.320 --> 0:15:59.800
<v Speaker 1>and a Democrat House and Senate. I mean that's what

0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the NC wants. And he acted like a complete jerk

0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.920
<v Speaker 1>on Bill Bill Hemmer's show. And Hammer, by the way,

0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>is a very fair minded guy, very decent guy, does

0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 1>a good show, does give people on both sides a

0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:16.280
<v Speaker 1>fair shake to speak in a Democrat and Republican. He's

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>he's he tries to play it as straight as a

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 1>as a as a journalist or a TV journalists as

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:27.440
<v Speaker 1>he can, I think. And this guy, Michael Blake was

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.680
<v Speaker 1>acting like a total total jerk. I mean, just no manners,

0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:33.480
<v Speaker 1>no deasons. He was ever going on to trash his

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:35.560
<v Speaker 1>colleague who's not there. That's just it's a it's a

0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.120
<v Speaker 1>cowardly move. He is not there to talk. He wasn't

0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:40.040
<v Speaker 1>asked to talk about Tucker Cross, and he's asked to

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:43.080
<v Speaker 1>come talk about whether Michelle Obama is going to possibly

0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 1>get into the race, and he just uses an opportunity.

0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:47.240
<v Speaker 1>So I just point at this to show you this

0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:50.880
<v Speaker 1>is somebody who's very senior in the d NC apparatus,

0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:54.920
<v Speaker 1>and this is just showing you what the reality is

0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>of the Democrats, that they they're not going to be

0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:01.680
<v Speaker 1>nice if Trump loses, They're not going to be kinder

0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:04.479
<v Speaker 1>and better politicians than Trump has. But this is all

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.440
<v Speaker 1>of this is all a myth, a mirage doesn't exist.

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:13.679
<v Speaker 1>Democrats have embraced a hysteria and a viciousness and a

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:17.159
<v Speaker 1>person in politics of personal destruction that Trump is in

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 1>antidote two in many ways that he is an answer to.

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:24.119
<v Speaker 1>He is there as a means of pushing back and

0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:27.639
<v Speaker 1>fighting back against the political machinery of the left that

0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:32.680
<v Speaker 1>just seeks to crush and destroy and control. Trump is

0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the guy you want by your side in a bar fight,

0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:37.440
<v Speaker 1>and in twenty twenty, this election is going to be

0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 1>a political bar fight unlike anything you've ever seen before.

0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:44.040
<v Speaker 1>I just remember the other side anytime they talk about

0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:47.280
<v Speaker 1>civility or Trump's tone, they're the worst when it comes

0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 1>to that stuff, the absolute worst. And Trump just gives

0:17:51.520 --> 0:18:17.480
<v Speaker 1>them some of their own medicine. That was First Lady

0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Melanie A Trump who is certainly arguably the most iconic

0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.320
<v Speaker 1>from a fashion and style perspective, the most beautiful for

0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:32.040
<v Speaker 1>those who care about the way the fashion magazines like

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.879
<v Speaker 1>to portray first ladies and how how they're supposed to

0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:37.120
<v Speaker 1>be a representation of America and all this stuff. I mean,

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:42.480
<v Speaker 1>First Lady Melanie at Trump is obviously stunning and highly fashionable,

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.919
<v Speaker 1>and all she does is talk about the issues that

0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.360
<v Speaker 1>are that are really non politically, you know, be nice

0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:52.399
<v Speaker 1>to people. She's trying to say Happy Thanksgiving here, and

0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:55.320
<v Speaker 1>she's getting people are booing her. You know, I was

0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:56.800
<v Speaker 1>just talking to you a second ago about how you

0:18:57.000 --> 0:18:59.000
<v Speaker 1>can't buy into the lie a lie the left is

0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 1>going to want to tell you, or is telling you

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:04.960
<v Speaker 1>every day that they're nicer that Trump, that the Republican

0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Party is now a party of meanness because of Trump. No.

0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Trump is in many ways a response to the viciousness

0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:15.520
<v Speaker 1>of the left and the lack of any sense that

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.760
<v Speaker 1>there can be something that is non political. There are

0:19:17.760 --> 0:19:20.280
<v Speaker 1>some areas where we can come together as Americans and

0:19:20.320 --> 0:19:22.359
<v Speaker 1>be decent to each other and oh, I don't know,

0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:24.199
<v Speaker 1>come together and give thanks as a country and not

0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:27.159
<v Speaker 1>have it be a political food fight and not have

0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:32.399
<v Speaker 1>all the nonsense social justice warrior criticisms of Thanksgiving as

0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:36.600
<v Speaker 1>a holiday. But now the left has decided that they

0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:40.520
<v Speaker 1>want a state of constant political warfare in every place,

0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:43.919
<v Speaker 1>on every issue, and there can be no respite from it.

0:19:44.400 --> 0:19:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Sports is not a respite from it. National holidays is

0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:50.439
<v Speaker 1>not a respite from it. It has to continue on always.

0:19:51.080 --> 0:19:54.120
<v Speaker 1>You know that there are people booing Melanni a Trump.

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:56.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean I would tell you this if people at

0:19:56.320 --> 0:20:00.080
<v Speaker 1>a Thanksgiving event like this, where Milanni at, where the

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.880
<v Speaker 1>First ladies just there to try to, you know, be

0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a nice representation of the First Family at a given

0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:09.359
<v Speaker 1>point in time, if people had booed Michelle Obama, I

0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.800
<v Speaker 1>would have thought that they were jerks too. Let's let's

0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:15.200
<v Speaker 1>keep this consistent. If if you be any first lady

0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 1>who showing up saying happy thanks gaining everybody you know,

0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 1>show a little class, you know, but the left has

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:23.560
<v Speaker 1>no class. This is why the left they're always showing

0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>up and interrupting events and shouting people down and protesting

0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:31.360
<v Speaker 1>and cancel culture and get this person fired and get

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:34.520
<v Speaker 1>them thrown off the internet platforms, make them lose their job.

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.320
<v Speaker 1>This isn't an anomaly for them. Now. This is who

0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the left has become. They embrace all of that. They don't.

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 1>They don't in any way repudiate it when there are

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:52.399
<v Speaker 1>these movements to humiliate and destroy their political opponents, which

0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:55.040
<v Speaker 1>look it always brings me back to I mean Cavanall

0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:57.480
<v Speaker 1>was a political mind eleven moment for many of us

0:20:57.960 --> 0:20:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Note eleven, in the sense that it was a change,

0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:03.560
<v Speaker 1>a dramatic change in perception of the reality that we

0:21:03.600 --> 0:21:06.800
<v Speaker 1>are living, and that was a national security and US

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:10.040
<v Speaker 1>safety in the face of a terrorist threat change in perception.

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:14.960
<v Speaker 1>But for our politics in America now, Kavanaugh was a

0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:16.719
<v Speaker 1>turning point. Certainly a turning point for me. And I've

0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:19.199
<v Speaker 1>talked to many friends about this. If they could do

0:21:19.280 --> 0:21:21.560
<v Speaker 1>that to him, if they could destroy or try to

0:21:21.640 --> 0:21:25.040
<v Speaker 1>destroy that man in that way, with so much dishonesty

0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:31.200
<v Speaker 1>and viciousness and just lack of basic human sympathy for

0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>a father or a husband, a good man. They do

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to anybody for any reason. By the way, it doesn't

0:21:38.080 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 1>matter if you're a public figure. They will make you

0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:43.240
<v Speaker 1>a public figure if it becomes a benefit to the

0:21:43.320 --> 0:21:45.680
<v Speaker 1>left to make an example of you. You think you're

0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:48.119
<v Speaker 1>just walking to your car with the groceries, but all

0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, some incident happens, and they've got a

0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:53.119
<v Speaker 1>video camera out there, and now you're public enemy number one.

0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:56.600
<v Speaker 1>They want to destroy you. No sense of good faith,

0:21:56.720 --> 0:22:01.000
<v Speaker 1>no willingness to show any grace or mercy. So I

0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:03.119
<v Speaker 1>just want to be very clear about that. You know,

0:22:03.200 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 1>as we're going into this holiday, we'll have a couple

0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:08.560
<v Speaker 1>of days here where there's not as much of a

0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:14.080
<v Speaker 1>focus on politics. Do not do not believe the people

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:15.479
<v Speaker 1>who will tell you this is something that I come

0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:17.840
<v Speaker 1>up with too, that basically Trump is such a bad man.

0:22:18.040 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 1>This is what you always hear. I've heard this from

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:24.320
<v Speaker 1>some associates and friends of mine recently. They'll say to me,

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:27.720
<v Speaker 1>this was said to me recently. You're too nice and

0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:31.960
<v Speaker 1>decent a person to support Donald Trump. This is a

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:34.119
<v Speaker 1>an attack on not an attack on. Maybe this is

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:36.320
<v Speaker 1>a way that people will try to criticize my support

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:38.639
<v Speaker 1>of the president. They say, look at how you conduct

0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:40.600
<v Speaker 1>yourself and how you speak to people versus the way

0:22:40.640 --> 0:22:42.679
<v Speaker 1>he does. And I turn around them, I say, but

0:22:42.720 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't. Donald Trump is not America's you know, kindergarten teacher.

0:22:46.800 --> 0:22:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump is not there to We're gonna say, he's

0:22:50.320 --> 0:22:56.239
<v Speaker 1>there to provide a personal exemplar of conduct, not just

0:22:56.320 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 1>in office, but before he even entered office. That's that

0:23:00.000 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 1>would be a new standard. Really, you know, George W.

0:23:03.280 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Bush was not an exemplar of fantastic conduct in his

0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:10.199
<v Speaker 1>life that we all should look up to before. I mean,

0:23:10.240 --> 0:23:11.919
<v Speaker 1>look at you know, we can all be honest here, right,

0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:13.760
<v Speaker 1>we're all adults. I mean Bush had some problems and

0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:17.280
<v Speaker 1>use a trust fund, baby, Okay, so yeah, and you

0:23:17.280 --> 0:23:18.639
<v Speaker 1>know Trump had hired a lot of money too. If

0:23:18.640 --> 0:23:21.160
<v Speaker 1>we're going to talk about this, and don't even get

0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:23.679
<v Speaker 1>me started on Bill Clinton, Well, this is not the

0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:25.919
<v Speaker 1>standard that I hold politicians too, and I don't think

0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 1>we should. I think it's actually strange. On the one hand,

0:23:28.560 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>you have people who will tell you that the problem

0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:35.000
<v Speaker 1>of Trump is a problem of a cult, it's a

0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:43.320
<v Speaker 1>form of destructive hero worship, and that he is being

0:23:43.320 --> 0:23:46.000
<v Speaker 1>elevated as though he's a monarch, as though he's a dictator.

0:23:47.640 --> 0:23:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Robert Redford, by the way, Robert Redford is he wrote

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:57.920
<v Speaker 1>an editorial one of these, like now Trump has gone

0:23:57.960 --> 0:23:59.399
<v Speaker 1>too far. I was like, first of all, as a

0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Robert Redford is he still is he still doing things?

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:06.119
<v Speaker 1>What's his situation? Like? I don't even know he was

0:24:06.160 --> 0:24:08.440
<v Speaker 1>still out there. But I got to love when these actors,

0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:11.520
<v Speaker 1>these Hollywood types, whether it's Tadira or Redford, they're like,

0:24:11.560 --> 0:24:16.399
<v Speaker 1>all right, that's it. This changes everything. Robert Redford is,

0:24:16.400 --> 0:24:18.879
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna editorial about how Trump is Like a dictator.

0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:22.159
<v Speaker 1>But I have to tell you, on the one I

0:24:22.160 --> 0:24:26.359
<v Speaker 1>think there's a disconnect. There's a disparity here because the

0:24:27.440 --> 0:24:30.360
<v Speaker 1>argument against Trump is so often from the left. They'll

0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:33.640
<v Speaker 1>say that there's a cult of personality. Look, every national

0:24:34.160 --> 0:24:37.239
<v Speaker 1>politician in this country there's some a little bit of

0:24:37.280 --> 0:24:39.840
<v Speaker 1>a cult of personality around them. It doesn't mean that

0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:41.879
<v Speaker 1>that's something we should aspire to, but it has to

0:24:41.920 --> 0:24:43.680
<v Speaker 1>be there, just the same way that if you're gonna

0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:45.760
<v Speaker 1>run for president, you have to be a narcissist. I mean,

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>you have to really believe that you are special. Maybe

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:52.800
<v Speaker 1>you believe that you're chosen by chosen by God. I

0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 1>also think that there are people more likely to be

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:57.199
<v Speaker 1>Democrats and Republicans, But I do think that there are

0:24:57.240 --> 0:25:01.160
<v Speaker 1>people who would say that just as as a cynical

0:25:01.160 --> 0:25:04.280
<v Speaker 1>form of self promotion as politicians were all. Of course,

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:06.600
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm It's not that I want to run,

0:25:06.640 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>it's that I am, or you know, God has chosen

0:25:08.800 --> 0:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>me to run. Some people believe it, some people don't.

0:25:11.280 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I can't see in their hearts. I don't

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:18.160
<v Speaker 1>know which politicians mean that and which ones are being disingenuous.

0:25:18.440 --> 0:25:21.320
<v Speaker 1>But they say that we are engaged in hero worship

0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:22.879
<v Speaker 1>of Trump. But then they also will tell us that

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:25.280
<v Speaker 1>we are supposed to look to the president to be

0:25:25.880 --> 0:25:28.400
<v Speaker 1>the example for our children, and you know that, Oh

0:25:28.400 --> 0:25:30.000
<v Speaker 1>look at his language, or look what he did here,

0:25:30.080 --> 0:25:33.600
<v Speaker 1>what he said there. I view him as a person

0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:38.040
<v Speaker 1>who is doing a job, and that's where I'd want

0:25:38.040 --> 0:25:41.840
<v Speaker 1>to say today transition for a moment into how we

0:25:41.880 --> 0:25:44.720
<v Speaker 1>should be thankful for the job. But he's doing it

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:48.320
<v Speaker 1>is going so much better than we were told. I mean,

0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:51.160
<v Speaker 1>if we're going to be thankful for first and foremost,

0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:54.720
<v Speaker 1>be thankful for your health, your family, and the fact

0:25:54.760 --> 0:25:57.840
<v Speaker 1>that those of you who are and most of the

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:00.160
<v Speaker 1>most of Team Buck is here in America, not all.

0:26:00.200 --> 0:26:03.560
<v Speaker 1>We've got Canada military bases around the world. They're obviously American,

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:06.960
<v Speaker 1>but they're not in the fifty States right now. The

0:26:06.960 --> 0:26:10.880
<v Speaker 1>ones who are international basis. And there's some other folks

0:26:10.880 --> 0:26:12.359
<v Speaker 1>who listen in Israel I now, so we have some

0:26:12.400 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 1>people all the world. But if you're listening to this

0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:17.320
<v Speaker 1>and you are an American, you are incredibly lucky just

0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 1>by virtue of that fact. You're lucky because you are

0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 1>a part of a political community that is the most

0:26:25.800 --> 0:26:30.119
<v Speaker 1>powerful most influential, most free, and most prosperous in the

0:26:30.160 --> 0:26:32.040
<v Speaker 1>history of the world. If you start to break down

0:26:32.040 --> 0:26:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the numbers on that, and what are the chances that

0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:36.960
<v Speaker 1>you would be born an American at this point in

0:26:37.040 --> 0:26:40.320
<v Speaker 1>time instead of you know, born in ancient Sumeria and

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 1>like lucky to hit your third birthday. I mean, if

0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:45.520
<v Speaker 1>you look at the chances of being born at a

0:26:45.560 --> 0:26:49.359
<v Speaker 1>time when people are starting to think about how soon

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:52.840
<v Speaker 1>we're going to hit you know, triple digit life expectancy

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:56.159
<v Speaker 1>as the norm, and the amount of time that we

0:26:56.240 --> 0:26:58.199
<v Speaker 1>have to pursue the life of the mind. And I

0:26:58.240 --> 0:27:00.320
<v Speaker 1>know we don't do it as much as we should.

0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:02.680
<v Speaker 1>And I really am thinking about cutting my cable chord,

0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:04.600
<v Speaker 1>but I think I'm going to do it. Yeah, the

0:27:04.600 --> 0:27:07.400
<v Speaker 1>only reason I have it is so I can see news.

0:27:07.600 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 1>I can see cable news coming in sometimes, but that's

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:11.720
<v Speaker 1>not I don't think that's enough for me anymore. I

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:14.119
<v Speaker 1>get everything I need digitally, and I think it'd be

0:27:14.119 --> 0:27:16.399
<v Speaker 1>better to just read more books and read more articles

0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:18.480
<v Speaker 1>and just kind of bag it and watch Netflix and

0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:20.440
<v Speaker 1>those things that I want. But anyway, but you have

0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:24.960
<v Speaker 1>it back to being thankful and not my cable news

0:27:25.400 --> 0:27:29.439
<v Speaker 1>proclivity or lack thereof. Here's what I would say, we

0:27:29.480 --> 0:27:31.240
<v Speaker 1>should all take a moment to be thankful for the

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:35.320
<v Speaker 1>most important things, your loved ones, your health, and the

0:27:35.359 --> 0:27:38.080
<v Speaker 1>fact that you are alive at this time. It is.

0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:40.719
<v Speaker 1>It is an amazing and glorious thing to be alive

0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:45.200
<v Speaker 1>at this point in human history. I would also say,

0:27:45.240 --> 0:27:47.719
<v Speaker 1>and had I had a feeling this morning that I

0:27:47.760 --> 0:27:49.159
<v Speaker 1>wasn't sure I was going to share you or not.

0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:53.480
<v Speaker 1>But I do think that things are particularly strong right now,

0:27:53.720 --> 0:27:59.119
<v Speaker 1>Things are going very well. I get a little little

0:27:59.680 --> 0:28:04.719
<v Speaker 1>twig hinge of ominousus that there's something ominous over the

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:06.680
<v Speaker 1>horizon in twenty twenty. I don't I couldn't tell you

0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:08.320
<v Speaker 1>what it is. I don't, you know. I always say

0:28:08.359 --> 0:28:10.399
<v Speaker 1>nobody can predict the future, and don't trust anybody who

0:28:10.440 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>says they can. But we're we're going to head into

0:28:15.000 --> 0:28:18.320
<v Speaker 1>some This is where all the cliche analogies come up,

0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:21.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, the stormy waters work or something, because right

0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:28.320
<v Speaker 1>now things just feel a little bit too stable, positive strong,

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:31.560
<v Speaker 1>and there is always there are ups and downs. My friends,

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:36.240
<v Speaker 1>you look at what was said to be the future

0:28:36.400 --> 0:28:39.880
<v Speaker 1>of a Trump presidency. What they were telling us would happen.

0:28:41.440 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 1>You look at that and then you see what's actually happening.

0:28:46.800 --> 0:28:48.600
<v Speaker 1>And first of all, they obviously can you know, the

0:28:49.200 --> 0:28:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Tom Friedman's and the Paul Krugman's and Here Times editorial board,

0:28:52.080 --> 0:28:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Washington Post editorial board or MSNBC analysts and anchors and CNN,

0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:59.600
<v Speaker 1>and they were all so wrong that nobody should ever

0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>feel obligated to listen to them ever again, at about anything.

0:29:04.240 --> 0:29:09.080
<v Speaker 1>But people will because everyone likes to have their their

0:29:09.080 --> 0:29:12.760
<v Speaker 1>own political biases reflected back to them via the articles

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:15.800
<v Speaker 1>they read, the news stories that pop up on their screen,

0:29:16.720 --> 0:29:20.200
<v Speaker 1>the cable shows that they watch at night. The smart

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.760
<v Speaker 1>people watch or listen to the Buck Sex and Show

0:29:22.800 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 1>because it keeps them safe in warm at night, or

0:29:24.760 --> 0:29:27.160
<v Speaker 1>they check out my man Jesse Kelly as well, who's

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:29.800
<v Speaker 1>also on Pluto TV channel to forty eight, the first

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:34.680
<v Speaker 1>given a little shout out heading into Thanksgiving. The reality

0:29:34.720 --> 0:29:39.160
<v Speaker 1>is that America is in an incredibly prosperous moment. We

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:43.320
<v Speaker 1>do not have a major war. I know, we have military,

0:29:43.320 --> 0:29:45.520
<v Speaker 1>we still have some military and commeat operations going on.

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:49.480
<v Speaker 1>There's some sweeping up remnants of ices happening in Syria.

0:29:49.560 --> 0:29:53.520
<v Speaker 1>There's still stabilization efforts in Afghanistan, which I think, unfortunately

0:29:53.560 --> 0:29:55.560
<v Speaker 1>in the long term, are doomed to failure. But we

0:29:55.640 --> 0:29:57.480
<v Speaker 1>don't have we don't have a war going on right

0:29:57.480 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 1>now where we're losing hundreds of people a day casualties

0:30:00.800 --> 0:30:04.640
<v Speaker 1>in a war that was that has been reality cyclically

0:30:05.800 --> 0:30:09.800
<v Speaker 1>throughout our our history. It's just a period of time

0:30:09.880 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that we tend to have this degree of peace. So

0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:15.520
<v Speaker 1>as you go home and you are about to carve

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:19.320
<v Speaker 1>up the turkey and dole out the sweet potatoes with

0:30:20.200 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I like it. My mom. My mom does an amazing

0:30:24.320 --> 0:30:26.520
<v Speaker 1>missus Sexton, meaning my mom, I don't there's not a

0:30:26.520 --> 0:30:29.280
<v Speaker 1>missus Sexton for me yet. We're working on We're working

0:30:29.320 --> 0:30:32.280
<v Speaker 1>on it. We're working on it. M MoMA does an

0:30:32.200 --> 0:30:37.440
<v Speaker 1>amazing classic Thanksgiving feast, but she does. She does the

0:30:37.480 --> 0:30:40.680
<v Speaker 1>marshmallows with the sweet potato, the browned marshmallow on top

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:42.720
<v Speaker 1>of the sweet potato, which I gotta say it is decadent,

0:30:42.760 --> 0:30:45.800
<v Speaker 1>but it is quite It is quite delicious. I would

0:30:45.800 --> 0:30:47.720
<v Speaker 1>also tell you that marshmallows I think are generally an

0:30:47.720 --> 0:30:51.040
<v Speaker 1>overrated food. That's right, it's not that good, you know,

0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:53.120
<v Speaker 1>You're ever like, oh, I just want to eat up

0:30:53.120 --> 0:30:54.960
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of marshmallows, I don't think. So you

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:57.480
<v Speaker 1>got to burn them and put chocolate on. You burn

0:30:57.520 --> 0:31:00.480
<v Speaker 1>anything and put chocolate on, it's gonna taste okay. So

0:31:00.640 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 1>it's carbon and chocolate. Back to the Thanksgiving the part

0:31:05.760 --> 0:31:08.760
<v Speaker 1>about being thankful right now. I look, I don't sit

0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:11.160
<v Speaker 1>around and make crazy predictions and then hope one of

0:31:11.200 --> 0:31:12.560
<v Speaker 1>them comes true. As I can tell you that I'm

0:31:12.560 --> 0:31:14.640
<v Speaker 1>some kind of prophet or something. Other people do that

0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:16.240
<v Speaker 1>on their radio shows. I don't like to do that here.

0:31:18.120 --> 0:31:20.719
<v Speaker 1>We're going to hit something bad next year. I just

0:31:20.760 --> 0:31:22.680
<v Speaker 1>have a feeling. I can't I don't know what it is.

0:31:22.760 --> 0:31:25.320
<v Speaker 1>But the election is going to be nasty. I'm not

0:31:25.360 --> 0:31:28.160
<v Speaker 1>talking about that. Something's We're going to hit something rough.

0:31:28.920 --> 0:31:32.120
<v Speaker 1>And so I just know I've been around long enough

0:31:32.120 --> 0:31:34.800
<v Speaker 1>to know that you, wherever you are across the country,

0:31:34.800 --> 0:31:38.600
<v Speaker 1>around the world, my fellow Americans, take a moment to

0:31:38.680 --> 0:31:43.840
<v Speaker 1>feel the blessings that we really do have in this country.

0:31:43.920 --> 0:31:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Right now. You have your individual blessings, then you have

0:31:46.240 --> 0:31:49.760
<v Speaker 1>the more general this period in time, this point in

0:31:49.800 --> 0:31:53.760
<v Speaker 1>history blessings. And it's remarkable. I mean, this country, we

0:31:53.800 --> 0:31:55.200
<v Speaker 1>are not in the midst of a huge war. We

0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:57.640
<v Speaker 1>are not in the midst of a recession. You know.

0:31:57.880 --> 0:32:00.840
<v Speaker 1>The biggest problem most of us deal with in terms

0:32:00.840 --> 0:32:03.160
<v Speaker 1>of what the news is reporting on, hows to do

0:32:03.240 --> 0:32:05.479
<v Speaker 1>with whether we're going to argue about politics or not.

0:32:05.680 --> 0:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I know, perhaps that's a place to transition. Do not

0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:15.120
<v Speaker 1>believe these articles or do not listen to these experts

0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:19.080
<v Speaker 1>who are there's this whole industry of how to talk

0:32:19.160 --> 0:32:25.760
<v Speaker 1>to your relatives about politics during Thanksgiving without making anybody

0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:33.040
<v Speaker 1>too upset. No, do not, do not do this. Do

0:32:33.160 --> 0:32:36.640
<v Speaker 1>not do this. Please, that's not the way. That's not

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the way to make everybody, everybody happy. I couldn't believe

0:32:40.160 --> 0:32:42.640
<v Speaker 1>that this was really stunning. It was it. I'm trying

0:32:42.640 --> 0:32:47.680
<v Speaker 1>to think what the group was here. The NNAF Abortion

0:32:47.800 --> 0:32:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Funds Twitter account put this out. Talking with your family

0:32:52.520 --> 0:32:57.320
<v Speaker 1>about abortion isn't always easy. If you're visiting loved ones

0:32:57.320 --> 0:32:58.960
<v Speaker 1>for the holidays this time. If you're check out our

0:32:58.960 --> 0:33:02.320
<v Speaker 1>guide for talking about abortion, including graphics and a tool kid.

0:33:04.040 --> 0:33:06.200
<v Speaker 1>They said tool kid, I'm not that's that's what was

0:33:06.200 --> 0:33:11.480
<v Speaker 1>in the tweet. Uh No, do not all right, I

0:33:11.800 --> 0:33:14.960
<v Speaker 1>do politics every day. I work in politics for a living,

0:33:15.080 --> 0:33:18.000
<v Speaker 1>or you know, political media, whatever, we call this. Not

0:33:18.040 --> 0:33:19.880
<v Speaker 1>a journalist, not even really sure what. I'm just a

0:33:19.920 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 1>guy with some thoughts and does some things do not

0:33:24.000 --> 0:33:26.880
<v Speaker 1>bring up highly contentious politically. You already know this, I

0:33:26.880 --> 0:33:29.680
<v Speaker 1>mean everyone already knows is you know, you understand if

0:33:29.680 --> 0:33:31.320
<v Speaker 1>you got a family where that's I mean my family,

0:33:31.360 --> 0:33:34.080
<v Speaker 1>it's always fun because we're all we're all on Team

0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:36.040
<v Speaker 1>America and the Sexton family, so we don't have to

0:33:36.040 --> 0:33:38.880
<v Speaker 1>worry about it. But you know, I mean in other families,

0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I know there's a little more sensitivity about this, and

0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I've seen what can happen when these conversations go awry.

0:33:47.400 --> 0:33:50.520
<v Speaker 1>So but this is why people have football and they

0:33:50.560 --> 0:33:53.480
<v Speaker 1>have movies and they have things that you can talk

0:33:53.480 --> 0:33:55.920
<v Speaker 1>about where everyone can have an opinion and just share,

0:33:55.960 --> 0:34:01.320
<v Speaker 1>exchange ideas and not get into a content just exchange

0:34:00.880 --> 0:34:04.280
<v Speaker 1>with the other side of the table about whether Bernie

0:34:04.320 --> 0:34:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Sanders is really good to deliver free healthcare for everybody

0:34:06.960 --> 0:34:08.680
<v Speaker 1>in life is going to be great and everything will

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:13.360
<v Speaker 1>be fantastic. No, he is not correct, but it doesn't matter.

0:34:14.080 --> 0:34:17.759
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter. Enjoy your stuffing and your turkey and

0:34:19.400 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 1>green beans. I think with the green beans probably in

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:22.719
<v Speaker 1>the sex and how green beans are good. You know,

0:34:23.120 --> 0:34:26.360
<v Speaker 1>green beans are good because they're very easy to wrap

0:34:26.440 --> 0:34:28.680
<v Speaker 1>in other foods, you know, on your plate, to kind

0:34:28.719 --> 0:34:32.120
<v Speaker 1>of mush them in with mashed potatoes or sweet potato

0:34:32.239 --> 0:34:35.160
<v Speaker 1>or stuffing, and then you feel like you're getting some greens.

0:34:35.200 --> 0:34:39.400
<v Speaker 1>So somehow the twenty five hundred calorie or three thousand

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:43.359
<v Speaker 1>calorie Thanksgiving feast that you are shoveling into your mouth

0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:46.320
<v Speaker 1>is is a bit healthier because you've got green beans

0:34:46.360 --> 0:34:49.680
<v Speaker 1>that'll be a part of the mix. So that's the advantage.

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:53.319
<v Speaker 1>That's the advantage that I see there, all right, Team,

0:34:53.320 --> 0:34:55.560
<v Speaker 1>When you want to spot that burglar when he's chasing

0:34:55.600 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 1>your home or after he's in, well you could ask

0:34:57.719 --> 0:35:00.600
<v Speaker 1>John who's blinked camera alerted him to was trying to

0:35:00.600 --> 0:35:03.360
<v Speaker 1>break in while he and his family were home, or Shannon,

0:35:03.400 --> 0:35:06.640
<v Speaker 1>who's blink camera caught a feat stealing packages. Both times,

0:35:06.640 --> 0:35:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Blink video clips were sent to police to help convict

0:35:09.000 --> 0:35:12.120
<v Speaker 1>the crooks. Blink motion activated indoor and outdoor cameras are

<v Speaker 1>After all, turkeys are closely related to vultures. I don't

0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:03.160
<v Speaker 1>know if I like that line, but there is a

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:07.080
<v Speaker 1>little truth to it. But today, after the birds will

0:36:07.120 --> 0:36:13.959
<v Speaker 1>retire to Gobbler's Rest at Virginia Tech Great College, where

0:36:14.000 --> 0:36:18.240
<v Speaker 1>they will be cared for and enjoy a terrific life,

0:36:19.760 --> 0:36:24.880
<v Speaker 1>they should retire this tradition. We don't need this bizarre

0:36:25.600 --> 0:36:27.880
<v Speaker 1>pardoning of the turkey thing anymore. I know I'm not

0:36:27.920 --> 0:36:31.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to be the Thanksgiving Grinch, although I will be

0:36:31.160 --> 0:36:33.080
<v Speaker 1>the Christmas Grinch because I will tell you all as

0:36:33.120 --> 0:36:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it gets closer. How and once you have children who

0:36:36.000 --> 0:36:38.680
<v Speaker 1>are above the age of twelve. I think Christmas gifts,

0:36:39.280 --> 0:36:41.560
<v Speaker 1>just try one year not doing the Christmas gift thing

0:36:41.600 --> 0:36:44.480
<v Speaker 1>and just spend time together and forget about But I

0:36:44.480 --> 0:36:46.560
<v Speaker 1>don't know people get me. Oh, but stores need and

0:36:46.560 --> 0:36:49.000
<v Speaker 1>everything else. People. It's different now, man. If you can

0:36:49.040 --> 0:36:52.000
<v Speaker 1>buy stuff for people, buy them a gift whenever you want.

0:36:52.040 --> 0:36:54.040
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to wait until Christmas time to get gifts.

0:36:54.080 --> 0:36:55.719
<v Speaker 1>You sit there on your phone and order anything you

0:36:55.760 --> 0:36:59.120
<v Speaker 1>want to order for anybody. But I know it's very,

0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:03.040
<v Speaker 1>very commercial to the Christmas holiday. As I Thanksgiving is

0:37:03.800 --> 0:37:06.839
<v Speaker 1>also commercial, at least for grocery stores and everything else.

0:37:07.040 --> 0:37:09.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'm all down with most of the traditions and

0:37:10.520 --> 0:37:12.920
<v Speaker 1>the way that we talk about what I actually I

0:37:12.960 --> 0:37:16.600
<v Speaker 1>feel like they've started to push the whole Pilgrim narrative

0:37:16.640 --> 0:37:18.080
<v Speaker 1>and all that out of it. You know, we don't

0:37:18.120 --> 0:37:22.000
<v Speaker 1>hear about this so much anymore. And there's some there

0:37:22.040 --> 0:37:26.040
<v Speaker 1>are some early some of the earliest settlements had some

0:37:26.080 --> 0:37:29.239
<v Speaker 1>experiments with socialism and with communal property, believe it or not,

0:37:29.280 --> 0:37:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and it didn't work out well. What a shock when

0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:36.640
<v Speaker 1>people had their own plot of land and they were

0:37:36.640 --> 0:37:40.640
<v Speaker 1>responsible for that land and also were able to benefit

0:37:40.760 --> 0:37:44.719
<v Speaker 1>from having it be better tended. Talking now about the

0:37:44.760 --> 0:37:49.719
<v Speaker 1>earliest colonists, the earliest settlers, people that were showing up

0:37:49.760 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 1>here wearing those funky shoes with the little little buckles

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:55.040
<v Speaker 1>on them, look like look like lepre cons, you know

0:37:55.080 --> 0:37:56.799
<v Speaker 1>what I mean, those ones? Yeah, you know what I'm

0:37:56.800 --> 0:38:02.560
<v Speaker 1>talking about. The Puritans Plymouth Rock. They showed up and

0:38:02.600 --> 0:38:04.719
<v Speaker 1>they had communal ownership of some of the property, and

0:38:04.719 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 1>that turned out to not be a good thing. So

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:08.160
<v Speaker 1>they started to go, wait a second, maybe we should

0:38:08.200 --> 0:38:12.680
<v Speaker 1>have ownership of land. I also love the lack of

0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:16.720
<v Speaker 1>an honest assessment of what went on with native peoples

0:38:16.800 --> 0:38:21.520
<v Speaker 1>before the European settlers showed up in this country. We

0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:26.919
<v Speaker 1>always hear that there was no sense of ownership of land. Yeah,

0:38:27.000 --> 0:38:34.040
<v Speaker 1>and yet there were tribes, notably like the Comanche among others,

0:38:34.560 --> 0:38:39.440
<v Speaker 1>that were infamous for going to neighboring tribes and wiping

0:38:39.440 --> 0:38:42.239
<v Speaker 1>everybody out and taking all their stuff. So I do

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:44.600
<v Speaker 1>think they did have a sense of property. They just

0:38:44.640 --> 0:38:48.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a sense of writing, and the rule of

0:38:48.520 --> 0:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>law was not codified. But they liked to create this

0:38:53.120 --> 0:38:58.680
<v Speaker 1>mythology of a perfect a utopia that existed here before

0:38:59.440 --> 0:39:01.239
<v Speaker 1>the settlers arrived. As you know, I've talked to you

0:39:01.239 --> 0:39:04.680
<v Speaker 1>about this in the context of Columbus Day, where the

0:39:04.800 --> 0:39:09.319
<v Speaker 1>storyline is that everything was great here and then we

0:39:09.360 --> 0:39:12.120
<v Speaker 1>showed up and we re ruined it basically, and now

0:39:12.160 --> 0:39:14.279
<v Speaker 1>we need to be saying sorry. There was a piece

0:39:14.320 --> 0:39:17.840
<v Speaker 1>in the Guardian today, the UK paper, not that anyone

0:39:17.880 --> 0:39:20.759
<v Speaker 1>really cares what the UK has to say about Thanksgiving,

0:39:21.040 --> 0:39:23.120
<v Speaker 1>because we're thankful that we don't have to deal with

0:39:23.120 --> 0:39:27.880
<v Speaker 1>their dumbass monarchy. What a ridiculous I'm sorry now, not

0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:30.480
<v Speaker 1>just because of the disgusting Prince Andrew situation, but I

0:39:30.560 --> 0:39:34.360
<v Speaker 1>just in general. So, hey, if Monokey the Queen, we

0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:37.680
<v Speaker 1>have to all sit around and vow and it's for tradition.

0:39:37.920 --> 0:39:39.640
<v Speaker 1>They get to just be sort of rich and fancy

0:39:39.760 --> 0:39:44.200
<v Speaker 1>for no apparent reason. No, no, we fought. We fought

0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:46.640
<v Speaker 1>a little war so we did not have to bow

0:39:46.680 --> 0:39:50.480
<v Speaker 1>and scrape and bend the knee to a bunch of

0:39:50.480 --> 0:39:54.319
<v Speaker 1>people that have done nothing to nothing to deserve the

0:39:54.360 --> 0:39:56.879
<v Speaker 1>praise they get from the British bit But anyway, that's

0:39:57.680 --> 0:39:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I might even try to watch some of this. Everyone

0:39:59.320 --> 0:40:01.879
<v Speaker 1>loves to show the Crown, which I have to say,

0:40:01.880 --> 0:40:05.040
<v Speaker 1>I tried to. I thought it was very boring. Maybe

0:40:05.040 --> 0:40:06.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm alade in this one. I just I couldn't get

0:40:06.880 --> 0:40:10.680
<v Speaker 1>into it. I know, different different strokes for different folks.

0:40:12.600 --> 0:40:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Where was Oh, yes, on the Native peoples and the

0:40:15.360 --> 0:40:18.359
<v Speaker 1>way that Thanksgiving is now Thanksgiving is considered an imperialist

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:22.719
<v Speaker 1>and colonialist holiday in the academy. It hasn't really caught

0:40:22.760 --> 0:40:25.200
<v Speaker 1>on yet because people do like an excuse to eat

0:40:25.239 --> 0:40:28.600
<v Speaker 1>a really big, rich meal and to be with their families,

0:40:28.600 --> 0:40:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and because it's not an explicitly religious holiday, although I

0:40:32.000 --> 0:40:33.680
<v Speaker 1>think it goes all the way back to George Washington

0:40:33.719 --> 0:40:36.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know, people giving thanks and well obviously it

0:40:36.400 --> 0:40:38.239
<v Speaker 1>goes back even before. But when it was turned into

0:40:38.239 --> 0:40:40.000
<v Speaker 1>a holiday, an official holiday, you needed to have a

0:40:40.000 --> 0:40:45.080
<v Speaker 1>country first, right, So it was something that we could

0:40:45.080 --> 0:40:47.799
<v Speaker 1>do a whole Thanksgiving history. Perhaps on another day. I thought,

0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how fascinting that would be for all

0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:51.880
<v Speaker 1>of you. But the storyline is always that the Native

0:40:51.880 --> 0:40:54.400
<v Speaker 1>peoples in this country, not just in this country, but

0:40:54.440 --> 0:40:57.440
<v Speaker 1>in North America in general, we're living in a state

0:40:57.480 --> 0:40:59.719
<v Speaker 1>of harmony, and then we came along and we're the

0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:03.640
<v Speaker 1>looiters and the oppressors, and did all these terrible things. Meanwhile,

0:41:04.600 --> 0:41:06.240
<v Speaker 1>if you look at the reality of what was happening

0:41:06.239 --> 0:41:09.279
<v Speaker 1>in the New World, particularly in the context of the

0:41:09.760 --> 0:41:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Aztecs and the Maya's Mayans, rather there was a system

0:41:17.160 --> 0:41:21.360
<v Speaker 1>of slavery and exploitation that was going on before we

0:41:21.400 --> 0:41:24.360
<v Speaker 1>ever arrived. Because people are people all over the world,

0:41:25.000 --> 0:41:27.680
<v Speaker 1>and if you're looking at what was going on in

0:41:27.719 --> 0:41:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the fifteenth centuries sixteenth centuries, that people doing bad stuff

0:41:34.239 --> 0:41:36.120
<v Speaker 1>all over the world. There was no place that was

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:39.480
<v Speaker 1>this utopia where people where everyone lived in harmony with

0:41:39.560 --> 0:41:43.319
<v Speaker 1>the land. And the one one thing that liberals never

0:41:43.400 --> 0:41:48.000
<v Speaker 1>seemed to really understand is that nature is actually quite

0:41:48.520 --> 0:41:52.280
<v Speaker 1>unforgiving and destructive. You see this with all the different

0:41:53.400 --> 0:41:57.440
<v Speaker 1>versions that they put out in pop culture of Native

0:41:57.480 --> 0:42:00.840
<v Speaker 1>people's living in harm with the land. I mean, you know,

0:42:00.840 --> 0:42:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you look at Dances with Wolves, for example, Oh, everything

0:42:04.040 --> 0:42:07.400
<v Speaker 1>was the Native American tribes there were living in this

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:10.160
<v Speaker 1>world of everything was beautiful and they just lived off

0:42:10.160 --> 0:42:13.279
<v Speaker 1>the land that everything's fun. And then you can even see,

0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:15.920
<v Speaker 1>i mean, the plot of Dances with Wolves is completely

0:42:16.520 --> 0:42:18.759
<v Speaker 1>taken by the movie what was the movie with the

0:42:18.800 --> 0:42:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Blue the Blue Aliens? The Blue Alien movie. You know,

0:42:22.120 --> 0:42:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking to the blue alien Avatar. Avatar. Yeah, I'm

0:42:25.920 --> 0:42:28.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna say it one of the worst movies I've ever

0:42:28.600 --> 0:42:31.440
<v Speaker 1>seen in my life. And I saw it in the

0:42:31.480 --> 0:42:34.960
<v Speaker 1>special three d oh. Look the thing is like the

0:42:35.080 --> 0:42:38.160
<v Speaker 1>weird jellyfish in the sky is flying to my face. No,

0:42:39.040 --> 0:42:42.560
<v Speaker 1>it was bad. It was not a good movie. And

0:42:42.800 --> 0:42:45.360
<v Speaker 1>I've been told it's also the same plot from Fern Gully,

0:42:45.520 --> 0:42:47.600
<v Speaker 1>which I never saw. Is that correct? Fern Gully has

0:42:47.640 --> 0:42:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the same You should watch that, really, yeah, I mean

0:42:51.080 --> 0:42:53.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe you would fall. It wouldn't work with you because

0:42:53.680 --> 0:42:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I watched it as a kid and it's more like

0:42:55.400 --> 0:42:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a kids movie. But yeah, it's the same plot, the

0:42:57.239 --> 0:42:59.640
<v Speaker 1>same basic plot, right, So the bad people show up,

0:42:59.640 --> 0:43:03.080
<v Speaker 1>the looiters and all these things. The reality of mother

0:43:03.239 --> 0:43:06.799
<v Speaker 1>nature is that, especially for societies that were pre industrial

0:43:07.080 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 1>and didn't have even basic agricultural implements or or systems

0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:17.960
<v Speaker 1>of animal husbandry, I believe is the correct term. I'm

0:43:18.000 --> 0:43:20.240
<v Speaker 1>amazing how many Americans don't even know that the Native

0:43:20.239 --> 0:43:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Americans in this country did not They did. They did

0:43:23.200 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 1>not have a culture of of horseback riding until the

0:43:28.239 --> 0:43:32.400
<v Speaker 1>European Spanish colonists showed up. That was where they got horses.

0:43:32.480 --> 0:43:35.120
<v Speaker 1>There was not we think of, you know, the Plains,

0:43:35.160 --> 0:43:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Indian pot of the Plains, Native Americans planes Native Americans

0:43:38.960 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 1>as the appropriate terminology, but tries tribes like the Sioux

0:43:43.239 --> 0:43:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and the uh I mentioned Comanche before Apache, that they're

0:43:48.239 --> 0:43:51.640
<v Speaker 1>riding horses. That was actually something that came as part

0:43:51.719 --> 0:43:57.719
<v Speaker 1>of the Yes, the colonial the colonial conquest of America.

0:43:57.800 --> 0:43:59.320
<v Speaker 1>What I just think this is a fascinating part of

0:43:59.360 --> 0:44:02.280
<v Speaker 1>that that just gets left up people like, oh, yeah,

0:44:02.280 --> 0:44:04.439
<v Speaker 1>they had horsed because of us. But what I'm trying

0:44:04.440 --> 0:44:06.480
<v Speaker 1>to say about mother nature and the way it can

0:44:06.520 --> 0:44:09.000
<v Speaker 1>be quite brutal, is that for those societies, I mean

0:44:09.040 --> 0:44:13.640
<v Speaker 1>they're famine was a regular occurrence. People would run out

0:44:13.640 --> 0:44:16.800
<v Speaker 1>of food, people would freeze to death, people would would

0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:20.839
<v Speaker 1>die because of exposure to the elements. And so there's

0:44:20.880 --> 0:44:28.080
<v Speaker 1>always this story, this make believe world that liberals conjure

0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:34.200
<v Speaker 1>up of pre European, pre industrial societies, we're living in

0:44:34.280 --> 0:44:36.879
<v Speaker 1>harmony with Mother nature, when the reality is that they

0:44:36.880 --> 0:44:38.920
<v Speaker 1>were living at the whim of Mother Nature most of

0:44:39.000 --> 0:44:45.240
<v Speaker 1>the time, and life was to borrow from hobbes often nasty, brutish,

0:44:45.280 --> 0:44:48.239
<v Speaker 1>and short. So if we're just going to have these

0:44:48.239 --> 0:44:50.920
<v Speaker 1>conversations about whether Thanksgiving as a colonial hoiday. I think

0:44:50.920 --> 0:44:53.759
<v Speaker 1>we should be honest about what life was like here beforehand,

0:44:54.080 --> 0:44:56.320
<v Speaker 1>what ways did it get better or was it not. Obviously,

0:44:56.360 --> 0:44:59.000
<v Speaker 1>there was a lot of very terrible things that were

0:44:59.040 --> 0:45:02.799
<v Speaker 1>done to the Native peoples by the colonial settlers. Some

0:45:02.840 --> 0:45:04.759
<v Speaker 1>of the native peoples did some terrible things to the

0:45:05.800 --> 0:45:09.320
<v Speaker 1>settlers as well. We know about that. It was mostly

0:45:09.320 --> 0:45:12.720
<v Speaker 1>a function of disease that wiped out the Native American

0:45:12.719 --> 0:45:15.440
<v Speaker 1>population this country. I think about ninety the real estimates

0:45:15.440 --> 0:45:21.000
<v Speaker 1>are over ninety seven percent of casualties after the conquest

0:45:21.080 --> 0:45:24.359
<v Speaker 1>of North well of the Americas, I should say, came

0:45:24.440 --> 0:45:28.960
<v Speaker 1>from disease, primarily smallpox and influenza. So we always are

0:45:28.960 --> 0:45:31.640
<v Speaker 1>told about the genocide that occurred, and that we have

0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:36.360
<v Speaker 1>to constantly be apologizing for this, and that this is

0:45:36.400 --> 0:45:39.360
<v Speaker 1>something that all Americans we should carry some stain of

0:45:39.520 --> 0:45:42.720
<v Speaker 1>shame over the genocide. There were very bad things that happened.

0:45:42.800 --> 0:45:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm familiar with the different ways that the Native peoples

0:45:47.600 --> 0:45:51.120
<v Speaker 1>were killed and rounded up and put on reservations. But

0:45:51.280 --> 0:45:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a vast majority of the extinction of Native peoples that

0:45:55.040 --> 0:45:58.800
<v Speaker 1>occurred in the New World was the result of disease.

0:46:00.320 --> 0:46:03.120
<v Speaker 1>It was just it was a highly an unfortunate situation

0:46:03.160 --> 0:46:06.719
<v Speaker 1>for people whose immune systems had not been exposed to

0:46:06.760 --> 0:46:09.440
<v Speaker 1>disease the way they had in the Western and primarily

0:46:09.480 --> 0:46:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Mediterranean world. So anyway, I just think that if we're

0:46:12.000 --> 0:46:16.719
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about the colonial background of Thanksgiving, we

0:46:16.760 --> 0:46:19.279
<v Speaker 1>should have a more open and honest discussion. But okay, well,

0:46:19.280 --> 0:46:20.800
<v Speaker 1>what were the good parts of this? What were the

0:46:20.840 --> 0:46:23.440
<v Speaker 1>bad parts of this? What were the aspects of you know,

0:46:23.680 --> 0:46:26.600
<v Speaker 1>we're giving thanks in the new world. Do we have

0:46:26.680 --> 0:46:31.000
<v Speaker 1>to focus so much in our contemporary context on how

0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:34.000
<v Speaker 1>things back then weren't There was no wokeness, there was

0:46:34.080 --> 0:46:36.720
<v Speaker 1>no social justice. There was a lot of yes, racism

0:46:36.719 --> 0:46:39.879
<v Speaker 1>and exploitation and bad things happening. Does that mean we're

0:46:39.880 --> 0:46:42.480
<v Speaker 1>not allowed to just get together and give thanks today

0:46:42.600 --> 0:46:46.200
<v Speaker 1>for all the all the benefits and bounty and wondrous

0:46:46.200 --> 0:46:49.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff in this land. You know, they really do believe

0:46:49.360 --> 0:46:51.080
<v Speaker 1>they want to change. Then I'm trying to see what

0:46:51.200 --> 0:46:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the name. I think Trump said that there's an effort

0:46:54.000 --> 0:46:56.560
<v Speaker 1>to change the name of Thanksgiving and that everyone has

0:46:56.600 --> 0:46:59.840
<v Speaker 1>freaked out, and so that that's not true. Here we go,

0:47:00.120 --> 0:47:03.399
<v Speaker 1>universities teach students here's an example of exactly what I'm

0:47:03.400 --> 0:47:08.759
<v Speaker 1>talking about, how to decolonize their Thanksgiving. This is in

0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:11.759
<v Speaker 1>the college fix. As college students across the nation head

0:47:11.760 --> 0:47:14.440
<v Speaker 1>home for Thanksgiving, they're armed with the knowledge to decolonize

0:47:14.440 --> 0:47:19.399
<v Speaker 1>their holiday quote by taking how you can eat your

0:47:19.440 --> 0:47:23.600
<v Speaker 1>Turkey and decolonized Thanksgiving two. That's an event that is

0:47:23.600 --> 0:47:28.880
<v Speaker 1>happening on college campuses and thanks but no Thanksgiving decolonizing

0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:34.160
<v Speaker 1>an American holiday. This is amazing. There's an article here

0:47:34.200 --> 0:47:39.160
<v Speaker 1>they talk about Professor Wick in which she encouraged parents

0:47:39.160 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 1>to send letters to their children's schools to advocate for

0:47:42.719 --> 0:47:47.040
<v Speaker 1>a more inclusive approach to discussing Thanksgiving, which is an

0:47:47.040 --> 0:47:52.160
<v Speaker 1>assistant professor of history at Saint Mary's University. Montana State

0:47:52.239 --> 0:47:56.960
<v Speaker 1>University is having an Indigenous dinner on November thirteenth, including

0:47:57.080 --> 0:48:02.120
<v Speaker 1>only locally and tribally sourced foods, with various stations offering

0:48:02.360 --> 0:48:08.600
<v Speaker 1>natural Native American dishes. So now we have to give

0:48:08.600 --> 0:48:12.040
<v Speaker 1>thanks by eating the foods of the native people's here

0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:15.319
<v Speaker 1>here beforehand, I've just how long before we're told that

0:48:15.320 --> 0:48:21.400
<v Speaker 1>that is cultural appropriation? Anybody how long before that that

0:48:21.560 --> 0:48:23.160
<v Speaker 1>itself becomes a problem. This is like what I was

0:48:23.160 --> 0:48:30.520
<v Speaker 1>discussing with you yesterday on the issue of pronouns. They

0:48:30.600 --> 0:48:34.320
<v Speaker 1>want you to use specific pronouns or to announce your pronouns,

0:48:34.400 --> 0:48:36.600
<v Speaker 1>and also to use specific pronouns, and then whenever one

0:48:36.640 --> 0:48:38.760
<v Speaker 1>starts announcing their pronouns, if they ever get their way,

0:48:39.040 --> 0:48:41.400
<v Speaker 1>they'll the problem will be that when people announce their pronouns,

0:48:41.440 --> 0:48:43.480
<v Speaker 1>some people have to use pronouns that are unexpected. So

0:48:43.560 --> 0:48:47.040
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't solve any actual problem. It doesn't really make

0:48:47.080 --> 0:48:50.239
<v Speaker 1>any of this go away. If you celebrate Thanksgiving by

0:48:50.280 --> 0:48:55.520
<v Speaker 1>having I don't know what maze and squash, and I

0:48:55.520 --> 0:48:59.239
<v Speaker 1>don't know what the native dishes would be, and it

0:48:59.280 --> 0:49:01.879
<v Speaker 1>depends on what the country right. But if you were

0:49:01.920 --> 0:49:05.759
<v Speaker 1>to borrow from the native culture, then you would be

0:49:05.760 --> 0:49:08.200
<v Speaker 1>guilty of cultural appropriation. So there's really no way to win.

0:49:08.239 --> 0:49:10.040
<v Speaker 1>These are just people who just want to whine. They

0:49:10.120 --> 0:49:13.120
<v Speaker 1>just want to complain. They don't want you to just

0:49:13.160 --> 0:49:15.200
<v Speaker 1>be able to hang out with friends and family and

0:49:15.960 --> 0:49:20.279
<v Speaker 1>eat way too much, which we're all going to do. Man,

0:49:20.520 --> 0:49:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have to carve out some time forget about

0:49:22.480 --> 0:49:24.040
<v Speaker 1>carving the turkey of the carve out some time to

0:49:24.120 --> 0:49:25.680
<v Speaker 1>get to the gym. The day after this just so

0:49:25.719 --> 0:49:28.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel like a you know, you know, you know,

0:49:28.880 --> 0:49:31.160
<v Speaker 1>one of those those bullfrogs where you can't even see

0:49:31.160 --> 0:49:34.000
<v Speaker 1>its legs when it's sort of like, that's what I

0:49:34.000 --> 0:49:35.799
<v Speaker 1>feel like after thinks I look like I feel i'd

0:49:35.800 --> 0:49:37.880
<v Speaker 1>look like a bullfrog where you can't see any of

0:49:37.880 --> 0:49:42.839
<v Speaker 1>its limbs because it's just kind of so gross. It's

0:49:42.880 --> 0:49:46.279
<v Speaker 1>just kind of spilling out. And that's what I woulda bell,

0:49:46.280 --> 0:49:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I would say, they're rubing my belly. I told by.

0:49:49.360 --> 0:49:52.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, my my parents have an amazing white French

0:49:52.400 --> 0:49:56.799
<v Speaker 1>bulldog named Tulula, and my parents don't live far from me,

0:49:56.840 --> 0:49:58.840
<v Speaker 1>so I'm able to go visit on a regular basis

0:49:58.880 --> 0:50:00.880
<v Speaker 1>here in New York City. And the French bull she's

0:50:00.880 --> 0:50:03.279
<v Speaker 1>a she's beautiful dog, great dog. French bulldogs. You know,

0:50:03.360 --> 0:50:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Dana Lash I believe as a French hasn't. I think

0:50:05.080 --> 0:50:07.120
<v Speaker 1>she has a couple of French bulldogs. She's got great

0:50:07.120 --> 0:50:10.560
<v Speaker 1>tasting dogs. French cheese are so cute. They're great for cities.

0:50:10.600 --> 0:50:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Those of you that have country how not country houses,

0:50:12.880 --> 0:50:15.040
<v Speaker 1>but houses in the country. And you know, yes, if

0:50:15.040 --> 0:50:18.880
<v Speaker 1>I had twenty acres or whatever, two weeks an acre,

0:50:19.280 --> 0:50:20.920
<v Speaker 1>if I had more than a couple of hundred square

0:50:20.920 --> 0:50:24.080
<v Speaker 1>feet to live in. I'd probably get a lab or

0:50:24.120 --> 0:50:27.360
<v Speaker 1>a Golden retriever. Oh maybe, I don't know, maybe a

0:50:27.400 --> 0:50:29.560
<v Speaker 1>shepherd and a shepherd be kind of cool. I like

0:50:29.600 --> 0:50:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Bernese mountain dogs too, but they're enormous. You feel like

0:50:31.640 --> 0:50:33.200
<v Speaker 1>you want to put a saddle on them for the kids.

0:50:33.200 --> 0:50:36.640
<v Speaker 1>But don't do that. That's bad. Uh, was I saying,

0:50:36.680 --> 0:50:39.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, tu lula um. We joked around though, because

0:50:39.400 --> 0:50:41.359
<v Speaker 1>she's all she's all. She's all white. She's an all

0:50:41.400 --> 0:50:43.320
<v Speaker 1>white dog, and she's gotten a little up there in years,

0:50:43.440 --> 0:50:45.879
<v Speaker 1>and she's gotten a little she's got a little pudgy

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:47.680
<v Speaker 1>in her old age. And I found a photo and

0:50:47.680 --> 0:50:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I showed her my little sister. She looks like one

0:50:49.600 --> 0:50:53.759
<v Speaker 1>of those white fur seals that you'll see try to

0:50:53.800 --> 0:50:56.120
<v Speaker 1>like they're just like this mound of blubber on the ice,

0:50:57.440 --> 0:50:59.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's how they try to hide from a polar bears.

0:50:59.200 --> 0:51:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't always work. The Fredgie looks a little bit like that.

0:51:02.160 --> 0:51:03.839
<v Speaker 1>These days, Mom's gonna yell at me for making fun

0:51:03.840 --> 0:51:05.839
<v Speaker 1>of the Fredgie for big fat. But you know whatever,

0:51:05.880 --> 0:51:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know she's got. She's busy cookie. I

0:51:07.440 --> 0:51:09.279
<v Speaker 1>don't know if she's gonna see hear or see this

0:51:09.360 --> 0:51:12.600
<v Speaker 1>show so fun things. Give your dog some of the

0:51:12.640 --> 0:51:17.120
<v Speaker 1>scraps from the table. Yeah, that's I think there's even

0:51:17.160 --> 0:51:19.759
<v Speaker 1>a there's a parable in the Bible about this, right

0:51:19.800 --> 0:51:22.600
<v Speaker 1>that the gentile. The gentile gets the scraps from the table.

0:51:22.680 --> 0:51:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Give you know, your dogs sitting there seeing that turkey

0:51:26.640 --> 0:51:29.279
<v Speaker 1>leg up on the table, seeing that giant hunk of

0:51:29.360 --> 0:51:35.000
<v Speaker 1>delicious baked meat. By the way, baked ham is for Christmas.

0:51:35.080 --> 0:51:37.839
<v Speaker 1>Turkey is Thanksgiving, baked ham is Christmas. Let's not get

0:51:37.880 --> 0:51:40.520
<v Speaker 1>it twisted. But keep your dog a little bit of

0:51:40.520 --> 0:51:42.200
<v Speaker 1>a month, you give it a couple munches of it,

0:51:42.239 --> 0:51:46.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. The dog deserves it. Cats,

0:51:46.640 --> 0:51:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I leave up to the attitude. Cats even like people

0:51:48.480 --> 0:51:52.880
<v Speaker 1>food like that. Do people feed cats from the table? Yeah? Anytime,

0:51:53.120 --> 0:51:55.640
<v Speaker 1>because me and my girlfriend of a cat, and every

0:51:55.800 --> 0:51:57.840
<v Speaker 1>like any time with the chicken or even like a

0:51:57.880 --> 0:52:01.200
<v Speaker 1>little piece of pizza, you can give it. Oh yeah, yeah,

0:52:02.120 --> 0:52:04.000
<v Speaker 1>there's something new every day. I don't even know that's

0:52:04.000 --> 0:52:07.080
<v Speaker 1>been much time around cats. There's only one duel certified,

0:52:07.320 --> 0:52:10.239
<v Speaker 1>veteran owned background investigation and vetting company out there, and

0:52:10.280 --> 0:52:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it is global Verification Network. My friends like Global Verification

0:52:14.280 --> 0:52:17.399
<v Speaker 1>Network distinguished themselves some other people in the background check

0:52:17.480 --> 0:52:19.759
<v Speaker 1>space by doing it all here in the States. They

0:52:19.760 --> 0:52:22.479
<v Speaker 1>don't subcontract out the work. They're not just a front

0:52:22.520 --> 0:52:26.200
<v Speaker 1>for other people and oftentimes foreign countries who are the

0:52:26.200 --> 0:52:29.920
<v Speaker 1>ones doing the actual investigation and assessment. That's why I

0:52:30.000 --> 0:52:33.759
<v Speaker 1>want you to use Global Verification Network and all American

0:52:33.960 --> 0:52:37.520
<v Speaker 1>veteran owned background investigation company. If you're hiring people, you

0:52:37.640 --> 0:52:39.320
<v Speaker 1>know you've got to have background checks done. It's just

0:52:39.400 --> 0:52:41.600
<v Speaker 1>a part of doing business and a very important one.

0:52:42.160 --> 0:52:45.120
<v Speaker 1>So I trust Global Verification Network. I know you can too.

0:52:45.560 --> 0:52:48.760

<v Speaker 1>one one seven nine. Again for any background investigation or

0:52:52.719 --> 0:52:56.600
<v Speaker 1>vetting needs that you have, call eight seven seven six

0:52:56.800 --> 0:53:01.520
<v Speaker 1>nine five one one seven nine, or go to MYGDN

0:53:01.600 --> 0:53:04.920
<v Speaker 1>dot com. That's my GDN dot com. It's kind of

0:53:04.920 --> 0:53:07.680
<v Speaker 1>amazing and that people that spend their lives in politics

0:53:07.680 --> 0:53:11.319
<v Speaker 1>can make some of the purely political decisions that they

0:53:11.360 --> 0:53:13.759
<v Speaker 1>do make. I didn't get to talk to about this

0:53:13.800 --> 0:53:15.480
<v Speaker 1>before I sort to throw this in the mix today.

0:53:15.920 --> 0:53:19.160
<v Speaker 1>A governor, former governor of Massachusetts, deval Patrick, has said

0:53:19.200 --> 0:53:21.120
<v Speaker 1>that he's going to run and there's all this reporting

0:53:21.120 --> 0:53:25.120
<v Speaker 1>that Obama. Obama gave him a blessing to run, I think,

0:53:25.160 --> 0:53:28.719
<v Speaker 1>and deval Patrick had this to say about his race,

0:53:28.960 --> 0:53:31.920
<v Speaker 1>pretty sure, Brandon, would you please play thirteen? And as

0:53:31.960 --> 0:53:36.040
<v Speaker 1>I've watched the field, many of them friends develop and

0:53:37.440 --> 0:53:41.720
<v Speaker 1>offer their message. I do sense that there's still space

0:53:42.239 --> 0:53:44.200
<v Speaker 1>for what I offer. And in fact, as I've gotten

0:53:44.200 --> 0:53:46.200
<v Speaker 1>out and around over the course of the last ten

0:53:46.280 --> 0:53:48.240
<v Speaker 1>days or so, I think that path is even wider

0:53:48.239 --> 0:53:51.640
<v Speaker 1>than I imagined. I think deval Patrick's the only one

0:53:51.680 --> 0:53:53.399
<v Speaker 1>who thinks there's a wide path for him to run

0:53:53.440 --> 0:53:56.319
<v Speaker 1>for president. I'm just gonna put that out there. There

0:53:56.480 --> 0:53:58.920
<v Speaker 1>was a photo that was circulating over the weekend of

0:53:59.160 --> 0:54:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Deval Patrick at an event for Deval Patrick and there

0:54:03.920 --> 0:54:07.799
<v Speaker 1>was nobody there. Nobody, so they had to cancel the

0:54:07.800 --> 0:54:10.600
<v Speaker 1>event because no person showed up to the event. Not

0:54:11.040 --> 0:54:13.720
<v Speaker 1>I think they said that there were two who walked

0:54:13.760 --> 0:54:16.120
<v Speaker 1>in and we're like, we're not gonna be the only

0:54:16.120 --> 0:54:19.879
<v Speaker 1>two people here. So that's pretty much I think. I'll

0:54:19.880 --> 0:54:22.200
<v Speaker 1>you even know about Deval Patrick's chances of winning the

0:54:23.280 --> 0:54:25.160
<v Speaker 1>winning the presidency. I know that this is going to

0:54:25.200 --> 0:54:27.279
<v Speaker 1>be the big topic for everybody. If you're gonna If

0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:31.120
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna talk politics at the Thanksgiving table, the big

0:54:31.120 --> 0:54:34.840
<v Speaker 1>topic will likely be the twenty twenty election and who

0:54:35.600 --> 0:54:40.440
<v Speaker 1>the best Democrat candidate will be for the twenty you know,

0:54:40.480 --> 0:54:42.200
<v Speaker 1>who would be the best candidate or who would be

0:54:42.239 --> 0:54:44.320
<v Speaker 1>the most likely to win. Perhaps if you're a Republican,

0:54:44.360 --> 0:54:48.200
<v Speaker 1>you're probably more likely to focus on that. I'm still

0:54:48.200 --> 0:54:50.840
<v Speaker 1>putting my money on Elizabeth Warren, folks, and I'm pretty

0:54:50.840 --> 0:54:54.200
<v Speaker 1>confident welcome back to him, Pretty confident that my Elizabeth

0:54:54.200 --> 0:54:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Warren prediction is gonna be wrong. My Biden prediction, I

0:54:56.680 --> 0:54:58.080
<v Speaker 1>think is going to be correct, that he's not gonna

0:54:58.080 --> 0:55:00.319
<v Speaker 1>be the nominee. But I still don't know. I still

0:55:00.320 --> 0:55:01.919
<v Speaker 1>don't know who is going to be the one who

0:55:02.680 --> 0:55:04.720
<v Speaker 1>steps forward when it's not by it. And it feels

0:55:04.719 --> 0:55:09.759
<v Speaker 1>like Elizabeth warrenber her her whole Medicare for All debacle

0:55:10.200 --> 0:55:11.799
<v Speaker 1>where she said she was going to pay for it

0:55:11.800 --> 0:55:13.880
<v Speaker 1>without making anybody else have to pay for it, and

0:55:13.920 --> 0:55:18.640
<v Speaker 1>all these different things. Elizabeth Warren, She's got problems obviously

0:55:19.040 --> 0:55:21.880
<v Speaker 1>with her candidacase there are issues that I think we're

0:55:21.920 --> 0:55:24.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna going to continue to face her, even on the left,

0:55:25.400 --> 0:55:27.399
<v Speaker 1>and just the fact and we were talking about Native

0:55:27.400 --> 0:55:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Americans and the Thanksgiving holiday earlier on the show. Just

0:55:32.560 --> 0:55:34.319
<v Speaker 1>the fact that she has been able to continue on

0:55:34.360 --> 0:55:36.960
<v Speaker 1>as a viable candidate, despite the fact that she engaged

0:55:37.000 --> 0:55:40.560
<v Speaker 1>in a multi decade long racial fraud is pretty stunning.

0:55:41.320 --> 0:55:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Democrats seemed finely. Remember same people who are telling you

0:55:44.960 --> 0:55:48.839
<v Speaker 1>Trump lies. Trump has a problem with the truth, you

0:55:48.880 --> 0:55:51.880
<v Speaker 1>can't trust him, and all this stuff. I have no problem.

0:55:51.960 --> 0:55:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Never mind Hillary Clinton, hollow who is in the pantheon

0:55:57.880 --> 0:56:04.080
<v Speaker 1>of corrupt and dishonest politicians. There's something, particularly for me,

0:56:04.120 --> 0:56:09.160
<v Speaker 1>at least, there's something particularly odious about the way the

0:56:09.200 --> 0:56:12.000
<v Speaker 1>news media has covered up for Hillary Clinton all these

0:56:12.040 --> 0:56:13.880
<v Speaker 1>all these years, and the ways that she's like, I know,

0:56:13.920 --> 0:56:15.960
<v Speaker 1>do you all agree that that's nothing? Quickly due here different,

0:56:16.880 --> 0:56:19.480
<v Speaker 1>But you know they're really bashing these days. You've really

0:56:19.480 --> 0:56:22.440
<v Speaker 1>got all the Democrats a little bit in in a

0:56:22.520 --> 0:56:30.040
<v Speaker 1>foul mood. Michael Bloomberg because he's gonna I think that

0:56:30.160 --> 0:56:32.640
<v Speaker 1>here's his play. I've been thinking about this a lot

0:56:32.640 --> 0:56:35.000
<v Speaker 1>more last night. Why act she went up for At first,

0:56:35.040 --> 0:56:36.640
<v Speaker 1>let's do the bashing and then we'll get into what

0:56:36.680 --> 0:56:42.520
<v Speaker 1>his play is. For example, we have Elizabeth Warren, so

0:56:42.640 --> 0:56:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I am here on day two of Michael Bloomer thirty

0:56:48.040 --> 0:56:54.360
<v Speaker 1>seven million dollars and five You know, Michael Bloomer is

0:56:54.440 --> 0:57:01.320
<v Speaker 1>making a bit about democracy in twenty twenty. He doesn't

0:57:01.360 --> 0:57:05.640
<v Speaker 1>need people, He only needs zags and bags of money.

0:57:07.719 --> 0:57:11.279
<v Speaker 1>This has been disproven so many times, and it's a

0:57:11.400 --> 0:57:15.239
<v Speaker 1>it's a thing that politicians can only say because they

0:57:15.239 --> 0:57:18.840
<v Speaker 1>think that their constituencies aren't very bright. Like Elizabeth Warren

0:57:18.840 --> 0:57:22.080
<v Speaker 1>knows that Jeff Bush spent a vast sum of money

0:57:22.080 --> 0:57:25.240
<v Speaker 1>and lost to the primary, didn't even get close to

0:57:25.240 --> 0:57:28.680
<v Speaker 1>winning the primary in the twenty sixteen election, that Hillary

0:57:28.720 --> 0:57:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Clinton dramatically outspent Donald Trump and Donald Trump as we know, winning.

0:57:38.360 --> 0:57:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Yet here we are she's still saying this that somehow

0:57:41.720 --> 0:57:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg might be able to buy the election, that Michael

0:57:44.000 --> 0:57:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg would be in a position to just run off

0:57:47.560 --> 0:57:50.160
<v Speaker 1>with this thing because he's got bags bags of money

0:57:50.160 --> 0:57:52.120
<v Speaker 1>to spend on it. He's not the only one. Do

0:57:52.120 --> 0:57:57.440
<v Speaker 1>you got Bertie Sanders, who is very upset? Do you

0:57:57.440 --> 0:58:00.440
<v Speaker 1>got another billionaire in the race? The oh get their

0:58:00.560 --> 0:58:06.600
<v Speaker 1>class is destroying America by engaging in capitalism that creates

0:58:06.600 --> 0:58:10.760
<v Speaker 1>tremendous prosperity in thousands and thousands of jobs. Can we

0:58:10.840 --> 0:58:15.960
<v Speaker 1>have a little bit of the Bernie Sanders vibe on

0:58:16.000 --> 0:58:18.720
<v Speaker 1>the show, producer Brandon clip one, please clip one? And

0:58:18.840 --> 0:58:22.479
<v Speaker 1>when he believes, and this is the arrogance of billionaires, Hey,

0:58:22.600 --> 0:58:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I can run for president because I'm worth fifty five billion.

0:58:25.960 --> 0:58:28.360
<v Speaker 1>And maybe I'll take one billion out of that fifty

0:58:28.360 --> 0:58:30.680
<v Speaker 1>five billion O a lot when you're worth that much.

0:58:31.120 --> 0:58:33.960
<v Speaker 1>And I gotta start running a massive amount of TVs

0:58:34.200 --> 0:58:37.800
<v Speaker 1>to California and in fact all over this country. And

0:58:37.960 --> 0:58:41.360
<v Speaker 1>I think that is precisely one of the factors that

0:58:41.480 --> 0:58:48.480
<v Speaker 1>is undermining American democracy. Here undermining democracy. People being able

0:58:48.520 --> 0:58:52.280
<v Speaker 1>to use their private property to spread that message is

0:58:52.640 --> 0:58:58.920
<v Speaker 1>undermining democracy. It is not undermining democracy. But really, what

0:58:59.000 --> 0:59:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Centers want is mobocracy. Oh colocracy.

0:59:04.160 --> 0:59:06.919
<v Speaker 1>Just get the masses riled up on an issue. Don't

0:59:07.000 --> 0:59:09.480
<v Speaker 1>let them That doesn't matter if they know what you

0:59:09.640 --> 0:59:12.360
<v Speaker 1>really stand for, it doesn't matter if the math you're

0:59:12.360 --> 0:59:15.240
<v Speaker 1>trying to sell them on doesn't add up. Just do whatever,

0:59:15.680 --> 0:59:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Do whatever you've got to do in order to get

0:59:19.720 --> 0:59:21.960
<v Speaker 1>the votes you have to get to be in power

0:59:22.960 --> 0:59:30.400
<v Speaker 1>to further push America down the very destructive path of socialism.

0:59:30.800 --> 0:59:32.680
<v Speaker 1>And this is where I think Bloomberg really comes in.

0:59:32.720 --> 0:59:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I've been thinking more about this. I don't think Bloomberg

0:59:36.080 --> 0:59:40.360
<v Speaker 1>really believes he's going to be president. I just I

0:59:40.360 --> 0:59:43.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I don't. I don't see it. He seems

0:59:43.000 --> 0:59:44.600
<v Speaker 1>like a smart enough guy to know he's not going

0:59:44.640 --> 0:59:47.800
<v Speaker 1>to win the presidency. But maybe that's not really his

0:59:48.000 --> 0:59:51.120
<v Speaker 1>ultimate purpose here. I think he wants I think if

0:59:51.160 --> 0:59:53.000
<v Speaker 1>he could win, he would take the job, and he

0:59:53.000 --> 0:59:55.240
<v Speaker 1>would do it. I'm not saying that, but I think

0:59:55.240 --> 0:59:58.240
<v Speaker 1>he've used this as a two pronged thing. One is

0:59:58.280 --> 1:00:01.920
<v Speaker 1>the yeah, the vanity project act of running for president

1:00:02.000 --> 1:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>given the very very weak field. Okay, fine. And also

1:00:05.360 --> 1:00:07.720
<v Speaker 1>I think he sees what Donald Trump did after all

1:00:07.760 --> 1:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>the years that he said he was going to run,

1:00:09.160 --> 1:00:11.760
<v Speaker 1>and then finally he runs and he wins. But I

1:00:11.800 --> 1:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>believe that Bloomberg understands that there's a real threat to

1:00:17.240 --> 1:00:21.960
<v Speaker 1>everything that the Democrats believe in that comes from the

1:00:22.080 --> 1:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>openness and the intellectual flimsiness. But the open is about

1:00:26.520 --> 1:00:30.680
<v Speaker 1>the socialism that Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are pushing now,

1:00:30.800 --> 1:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>not that they couldn't win. I think that unfortunately, especially

1:00:35.800 --> 1:00:39.160
<v Speaker 1>if we hit a major financial downturn. And this is

1:00:39.240 --> 1:00:41.560
<v Speaker 1>part of my concern for next year. I've said I

1:00:41.600 --> 1:00:45.880
<v Speaker 1>have this something, there's something ominous that just keeps I'm

1:00:45.920 --> 1:00:49.560
<v Speaker 1>concerned things can't stay the way they are right now

1:00:49.600 --> 1:00:53.080
<v Speaker 1>going into the election. Something's going to happen. If you

1:00:53.280 --> 1:00:59.480
<v Speaker 1>hit a very bad economic stretch in the election year.

1:01:00.200 --> 1:01:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Who does that benefit the most? It certainly benefits Democrats

1:01:02.840 --> 1:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>against Trump, There's no question. Then all of a sudden,

1:01:04.560 --> 1:01:07.880
<v Speaker 1>you'll have news coverage of oh, the economy and unemployments

1:01:07.920 --> 1:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>going up, and they then, all of a sudden, will

1:01:09.920 --> 1:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>be the biggest story in the country every day. I'll

1:01:11.760 --> 1:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>flood the zone, even if it's a pretty moderate downturn,

1:01:15.800 --> 1:01:18.120
<v Speaker 1>even if it's just a cyclical Okay, well, now we've

1:01:18.120 --> 1:01:20.560
<v Speaker 1>got to kind of get some of the excess and

1:01:20.600 --> 1:01:24.720
<v Speaker 1>get some of the you know, the bad money out

1:01:24.760 --> 1:01:26.439
<v Speaker 1>of the system, so to speak. I mean, just sort

1:01:26.480 --> 1:01:30.920
<v Speaker 1>of let things reset. Even with that, they'll turn it

1:01:30.960 --> 1:01:32.680
<v Speaker 1>into the biggest news store in the country, and they'll

1:01:32.720 --> 1:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>say that this is a repudiation of Donald Trump. But

1:01:36.040 --> 1:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>the people in the Democratic primary who would benefit the

1:01:39.360 --> 1:01:41.920
<v Speaker 1>most from this are the far left, I mean, the socialists.

1:01:42.880 --> 1:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>People get scared and they turn to the government to

1:01:48.440 --> 1:01:52.760
<v Speaker 1>save them. People decide that when things get really bad,

1:01:53.080 --> 1:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>they never look at root causes, and government overspending and

1:01:56.600 --> 1:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>intervention and monetary policy and all the things that can

1:02:00.640 --> 1:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>make a downturn certainly much worse, if not be the

1:02:02.920 --> 1:02:07.160
<v Speaker 1>primary cause of a downturn in the economy, the cyclical

1:02:07.240 --> 1:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>nature of these things. And there are people that I

1:02:08.560 --> 1:02:10.600
<v Speaker 1>know who would argue that we shouldn't have to have cyclical,

1:02:11.360 --> 1:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>these cyclical downturns, and that this is the result of

1:02:14.480 --> 1:02:18.120
<v Speaker 1>monetary policy and central planning of our economy. By that,

1:02:18.240 --> 1:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, and I people that just study this their

1:02:20.560 --> 1:02:22.360
<v Speaker 1>whole lives go back and forth on this, and I'm not,

1:02:22.480 --> 1:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm not really one of them, although I

1:02:24.000 --> 1:02:27.080
<v Speaker 1>do think I think the central planning is always is

1:02:27.080 --> 1:02:28.600
<v Speaker 1>always something you want to do the bare minimum of,

1:02:28.640 --> 1:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>just like I think government is something you want to

1:02:30.560 --> 1:02:35.680
<v Speaker 1>have very clearly delineated and limited. This goes back, of

1:02:35.720 --> 1:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>course to our founding philosophy, but I think that should

1:02:37.680 --> 1:02:41.200
<v Speaker 1>be the case as well. From the perspective of government

1:02:41.200 --> 1:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>intervention in the economy. It should be the absolute minimum necessary,

1:02:44.040 --> 1:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>really just the enforcement of contracts and the bare minimum

1:02:46.240 --> 1:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>of regulation, and that's not what we have now. But

1:02:49.400 --> 1:02:52.560
<v Speaker 1>if you were to have a market that all of

1:02:52.600 --> 1:02:55.520
<v Speaker 1>a sudden becomes really choppy and people get scared and

1:02:55.560 --> 1:03:00.200
<v Speaker 1>bad things are happening, then you would see, I think,

1:03:00.200 --> 1:03:03.000
<v Speaker 1>a big surgeon support for the far left the Democrat Party.

1:03:03.720 --> 1:03:09.280
<v Speaker 1>Remember that it was when socialism had a big rise

1:03:09.520 --> 1:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>in this country as a result of the Great Depression.

1:03:14.560 --> 1:03:19.680
<v Speaker 1>The narrative was that capitalism had failed. In fact, some

1:03:19.920 --> 1:03:23.760
<v Speaker 1>of the traders to this country who were people who

1:03:23.760 --> 1:03:26.360
<v Speaker 1>were communists, who were doing the bidding of the Soviet Union,

1:03:26.360 --> 1:03:29.919
<v Speaker 1>and yes they existed, Yes that was real. They still

1:03:29.960 --> 1:03:32.320
<v Speaker 1>pretend like we don't have more than a mountain of evidence,

1:03:32.320 --> 1:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>which we do that there were penetrations, Soviet penetrations of

1:03:35.960 --> 1:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the United States government at a very high level, but

1:03:39.600 --> 1:03:42.440
<v Speaker 1>also that there was tremendous there. There were efforts from

1:03:42.440 --> 1:03:46.480
<v Speaker 1>the Soviet Union to infiltrate socialism and yes, communism into

1:03:46.520 --> 1:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>this country, but there was an openness to it. The

1:03:49.640 --> 1:03:55.200
<v Speaker 1>fellow travelers of the Communist Party in Moscow in this

1:03:55.240 --> 1:03:58.919
<v Speaker 1>country believe that capitalism had failed, and they looked around,

1:03:58.920 --> 1:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>they saw this economic station and sat, see, we need

1:04:01.720 --> 1:04:03.920
<v Speaker 1>a system where the government will will make sure that

1:04:03.960 --> 1:04:06.080
<v Speaker 1>we are fed and everything is fair and everything will

1:04:06.120 --> 1:04:09.760
<v Speaker 1>be better. That became a belief that was really easy

1:04:09.840 --> 1:04:14.800
<v Speaker 1>for people of honestly, of good intention initially to support.

1:04:15.320 --> 1:04:17.360
<v Speaker 1>And so when people get scared, they don't look at

1:04:17.400 --> 1:04:19.080
<v Speaker 1>the government and say what did you do? They look

1:04:19.120 --> 1:04:20.800
<v Speaker 1>at the government and say, how could you help me?

1:04:21.000 --> 1:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>So if we head into a bad economic period in

1:04:23.280 --> 1:04:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the next year, you will see a big surgeon support

1:04:26.120 --> 1:04:30.720
<v Speaker 1>for Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and anybody who is

1:04:31.200 --> 1:04:34.480
<v Speaker 1>far left on the Democrat spectrum and promising a whole

1:04:34.520 --> 1:04:37.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of free The free stuff candidate becomes even though

1:04:37.640 --> 1:04:39.880
<v Speaker 1>you can afford it even less with a bad economy,

1:04:39.960 --> 1:04:43.080
<v Speaker 1>the free stuff candidate becomes very, very popular, very quickly,

1:04:43.120 --> 1:04:48.480
<v Speaker 1>when all of a sudden everyone is scared. And that's

1:04:48.480 --> 1:04:52.680
<v Speaker 1>where I think Bloomberg realizes that it's not a good

1:04:52.720 --> 1:04:55.200
<v Speaker 1>idea for this country to go socialist. A Bloomberg, who's

1:04:55.280 --> 1:04:59.640
<v Speaker 1>a self made multi multi billionaire, understands that at some level,

1:05:00.120 --> 1:05:02.320
<v Speaker 1>and perhaps he believes that his role here is just

1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that whoever wins the Democrat primary, it's

1:05:05.480 --> 1:05:10.600
<v Speaker 1>somebody that at least at a basic level, believes in

1:05:10.600 --> 1:05:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the benefits of capitalism as some understanding of what really

1:05:16.840 --> 1:05:20.360
<v Speaker 1>works and how markets make our lives better, at how

1:05:20.440 --> 1:05:23.800
<v Speaker 1>markets bring about prosperity and do things for us as

1:05:23.800 --> 1:05:25.640
<v Speaker 1>a people that we should all, yes, dare I say

1:05:25.640 --> 1:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>we should be thankful for We should be thankful for

1:05:28.200 --> 1:05:31.360
<v Speaker 1>capitalism today, thankful that we live in a country that

1:05:31.520 --> 1:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>is certainly imperfect and has far too much socialism and

1:05:34.680 --> 1:05:39.520
<v Speaker 1>central planning going on, but is at least in some

1:05:39.560 --> 1:05:44.880
<v Speaker 1>ways a better example than all of our near peers

1:05:44.960 --> 1:05:49.440
<v Speaker 1>about how to pursue efficient markets and to empower the

1:05:49.440 --> 1:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>individual to make choices that benefit the individual, and then

1:05:52.760 --> 1:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>in the aggregate, those individual decisions that help that are

1:05:57.520 --> 1:06:01.840
<v Speaker 1>based in self interest create a better society around for

1:06:02.080 --> 1:06:05.640
<v Speaker 1>all of the rest of us. They invent new things,

1:06:05.720 --> 1:06:08.600
<v Speaker 1>they make good things, they help with things, they provide

1:06:08.600 --> 1:06:12.640
<v Speaker 1>services that all of us benefit from. That is a

1:06:12.720 --> 1:06:15.800
<v Speaker 1>lesson that I would hope that perhaps we could be

1:06:15.840 --> 1:06:18.280
<v Speaker 1>talking about at the Thanksgiving table this year. That would

1:06:18.280 --> 1:06:20.000
<v Speaker 1>be that would be a better one. Tell the kids

1:06:20.040 --> 1:06:23.280
<v Speaker 1>about why capitalism is great and that's why they've you know,

1:06:23.280 --> 1:06:25.040
<v Speaker 1>you've got families all across the country that are going

1:06:25.080 --> 1:06:28.439
<v Speaker 1>to be having a giant well I don't know whatever

1:06:28.760 --> 1:06:30.880
<v Speaker 1>like a twenty pound bird or however big how big

1:06:31.000 --> 1:06:32.720
<v Speaker 1>or like the average turkey, I don't even really know,

1:06:33.200 --> 1:06:34.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, how how bigger? Like if

1:06:34.600 --> 1:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>you get like at standard Thanksgiving turkey, it's like, isn't

1:06:36.880 --> 1:06:39.160
<v Speaker 1>like fifteen pounds or not? There's a big Did you

1:06:39.200 --> 1:06:42.080
<v Speaker 1>see that video of the turkey following around the mail

1:06:42.160 --> 1:06:46.440
<v Speaker 1>truck every single stop? Oh, turkeys are terrifying. Yeah, so

1:06:46.520 --> 1:06:49.240
<v Speaker 1>they're big enough to do some damage. Turkeys. You know,

1:06:49.480 --> 1:06:52.720
<v Speaker 1>you start to realize that, you know, there's that whole

1:06:52.840 --> 1:06:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that theory is still believed them,

1:06:54.440 --> 1:06:58.080
<v Speaker 1>but that you had dinosaurs actually transitioned and you know,

1:06:58.120 --> 1:07:00.840
<v Speaker 1>this was like around the Jurassic Park era when people

1:07:00.840 --> 1:07:04.280
<v Speaker 1>started saying that they trends, they've evolved into birds over time.

1:07:04.840 --> 1:07:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You look, you look in the eyes, you look at

1:07:06.520 --> 1:07:09.240
<v Speaker 1>those little beady eyes of a turkey, and you're like,

1:07:09.320 --> 1:07:11.720
<v Speaker 1>you you're a great greg You know, Grandpa is probably

1:07:11.760 --> 1:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>a velociraptor. You know. Yeah, they look they look scary,

1:07:15.200 --> 1:07:18.400
<v Speaker 1>they're mean, and they'll come after you. They'll chase you down,

1:07:19.320 --> 1:07:21.919
<v Speaker 1>you know other you know, birds, You get too close

1:07:21.920 --> 1:07:24.480
<v Speaker 1>to birds, you find out the hardway. They they're not

1:07:24.640 --> 1:07:27.480
<v Speaker 1>they're not cuddly, and turkeys will chase you down. They

1:07:27.480 --> 1:07:30.439
<v Speaker 1>can be very very aggressive, and they are ugly too.

1:07:31.120 --> 1:07:32.720
<v Speaker 1>They're one of the if you're thinking, like, what is

1:07:32.760 --> 1:07:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the ugliest animal in the world, I think turkeys have

1:07:35.480 --> 1:07:38.360
<v Speaker 1>got to be kinda up on that list. And they're

1:07:38.360 --> 1:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>really and they do you know, you think about like buzzards.

1:07:40.960 --> 1:07:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that buzzards and vultures are very high up

1:07:44.800 --> 1:07:47.000
<v Speaker 1>on the animals you don't want to be near and

1:07:47.040 --> 1:07:49.760
<v Speaker 1>spend time around scale. You know. Yeah, they just look

1:07:50.120 --> 1:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>dirty all the time and they goblet underneath. You don't

1:07:52.800 --> 1:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>know what's going on. It's not cool. Yeah, but they

1:07:54.760 --> 1:07:57.959
<v Speaker 1>taste pretty They taste pretty good. Um, so we're gonna

1:07:57.960 --> 1:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>be We're gonna beat in some turkey. They're gonna have

1:07:59.760 --> 1:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>some turk sandwiches the day after that, turkey, turkey, turkey

1:08:02.680 --> 1:08:05.400
<v Speaker 1>for days and days and days. Good things, my friends.

1:08:05.560 --> 1:08:08.960
<v Speaker 1>I think the concern of this perspective that makes it

1:08:09.000 --> 1:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>sound like, you know, it's all the fault of students

1:08:14.000 --> 1:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>of color or somehow their families that they struggle to

1:08:18.120 --> 1:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>get ahead, and when the reality is there are so

1:08:19.880 --> 1:08:23.559
<v Speaker 1>many barriers that our system puts up, and I want

1:08:23.560 --> 1:08:26.360
<v Speaker 1>to make sure I communicated that I'm very conscious of

1:08:27.040 --> 1:08:30.320
<v Speaker 1>the advantages and privileges that I have had, not through

1:08:30.520 --> 1:08:33.960
<v Speaker 1>any great wealth, but certainly through education, through the advantages

1:08:33.960 --> 1:08:36.559
<v Speaker 1>that come with being white and being male. And that's

1:08:36.600 --> 1:08:38.719
<v Speaker 1>part of why I know I've got to make myself

1:08:38.840 --> 1:08:42.519
<v Speaker 1>useful as a candidate and as president. Pete Buddha Judge

1:08:42.600 --> 1:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>got into some trouble here with the Democrats because he

1:08:44.840 --> 1:08:48.040
<v Speaker 1>tried to talk about education and particularly education and minority

1:08:48.240 --> 1:08:51.519
<v Speaker 1>communities and what could be done to improve things. And

1:08:52.240 --> 1:08:54.639
<v Speaker 1>this is probably a surprise, dude, none of you listening,

1:08:54.920 --> 1:08:57.120
<v Speaker 1>but guess what. There are only certain things you're allowed

1:08:57.160 --> 1:09:00.479
<v Speaker 1>to say when you're talking about minorities and education in

1:09:00.520 --> 1:09:03.760
<v Speaker 1>America if you are a white male, period. But if

1:09:03.760 --> 1:09:06.760
<v Speaker 1>you're a white male running for elected office and all use,

1:09:07.200 --> 1:09:09.320
<v Speaker 1>the only things you're allowed to say, and this was

1:09:09.400 --> 1:09:11.160
<v Speaker 1>established once again with Mayor Peter you the only things

1:09:11.200 --> 1:09:17.080
<v Speaker 1>allowed to say is systemic racism, racism, barriers to minorities,

1:09:17.080 --> 1:09:20.960
<v Speaker 1>more racism, and more resources needed because racism, that's it.

1:09:21.400 --> 1:09:24.439
<v Speaker 1>You deviate from that as a Democrat, you go in

1:09:24.560 --> 1:09:27.439
<v Speaker 1>any other director you talk about, well, maybe we'll look

1:09:27.720 --> 1:09:29.800
<v Speaker 1>at how what are charter schools? Which charter schools are

1:09:29.800 --> 1:09:31.879
<v Speaker 1>public schools. It's just money that it's just a different

1:09:32.040 --> 1:09:34.599
<v Speaker 1>format for a public school. But anyway people who oh,

1:09:34.640 --> 1:09:37.280
<v Speaker 1>it drains money from public schools is a silly it's

1:09:37.280 --> 1:09:40.640
<v Speaker 1>a strange argument. But you're not allowed to have an

1:09:40.680 --> 1:09:45.719
<v Speaker 1>open conversation about education when education is failing in so

1:09:45.760 --> 1:09:49.280
<v Speaker 1>many underprivileged minority communities across the country. It's just it's

1:09:49.280 --> 1:09:52.639
<v Speaker 1>just sad. It's it's really it's really troubling. The people

1:09:52.680 --> 1:09:56.120
<v Speaker 1>that are supposed to be in positions of power that

1:09:56.280 --> 1:09:58.760
<v Speaker 1>can do something about this or could come up with

1:09:58.840 --> 1:10:03.880
<v Speaker 1>new ideas either are unwilling to or aren't allowed to.

1:10:05.320 --> 1:10:07.519
<v Speaker 1>They're not allowed to come up with things ideas to help.

1:10:07.720 --> 1:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know people that teach in schools here

1:10:09.920 --> 1:10:13.840
<v Speaker 1>in New York City that are that are almost that

1:10:13.880 --> 1:10:16.400
<v Speaker 1>are entirely as a as a function of the way

1:10:16.400 --> 1:10:20.320
<v Speaker 1>the school is set up underprivileged backgrounds. People that have

1:10:20.360 --> 1:10:22.200
<v Speaker 1>to be either from section they at housing or I

1:10:22.200 --> 1:10:24.519
<v Speaker 1>forget what the designation is, but they've received some form

1:10:24.520 --> 1:10:28.599
<v Speaker 1>of welfare. The schools entirely minority, and I hear about

1:10:28.600 --> 1:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>what goes on at that school and The problem is

1:10:30.240 --> 1:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>not resources. The problem is not a lack of computers

1:10:34.439 --> 1:10:36.000
<v Speaker 1>or textbooks. I mean, these are things that you'll hear.

1:10:36.040 --> 1:10:37.960
<v Speaker 1>The problem is not there's not enough money for teachers

1:10:38.000 --> 1:10:40.160
<v Speaker 1>or there's not enough teachers. That those are not the problems.

1:10:41.160 --> 1:10:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Problems are. And this is from teachers I know in

1:10:44.479 --> 1:10:46.240
<v Speaker 1>one school in particular here in New York City that's

1:10:46.479 --> 1:10:50.960
<v Speaker 1>entirely underprivileged and minority, that problems are things like students

1:10:51.360 --> 1:10:56.080
<v Speaker 1>are unwilling to listen to authority. They're unwilling to be

1:10:56.160 --> 1:10:58.240
<v Speaker 1>silent when they're told that it's time for someone who

1:10:58.280 --> 1:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>presented the class, or are they they don't show up,

1:11:01.080 --> 1:11:04.479
<v Speaker 1>or they there are all these other issues that come

1:11:04.560 --> 1:11:08.519
<v Speaker 1>up in the classroom, and there's no support for students

1:11:08.560 --> 1:11:10.479
<v Speaker 1>to do their homework at home. This is what I

1:11:10.520 --> 1:11:12.720
<v Speaker 1>hear from teachers all the time. But if you're a

1:11:12.720 --> 1:11:14.720
<v Speaker 1>Democrat and you can't talk about any of that, if

1:11:14.720 --> 1:11:17.000
<v Speaker 1>you're a Democrat, you know what the script is, What

1:11:17.520 --> 1:11:22.880
<v Speaker 1>is the problem with education as it pertains to minority

1:11:23.640 --> 1:11:26.800
<v Speaker 1>majority schools and minority neighborhoods where the test scores are

1:11:26.880 --> 1:11:32.799
<v Speaker 1>very low and education is not succeeding. The answer is racism. Racism, racism,

1:11:32.800 --> 1:11:35.400
<v Speaker 1>structural racism, and more racism. If you say anything other

1:11:35.439 --> 1:11:38.760
<v Speaker 1>than that, you will be crushed by your own side

1:11:38.760 --> 1:11:40.920
<v Speaker 1>as a Democrat. And that's just sad because you know

1:11:40.960 --> 1:11:43.679
<v Speaker 1>who suffers as a result of that, Kids who cannot

1:11:43.680 --> 1:11:46.720
<v Speaker 1>count on adults to have adult conversations about how to

1:11:46.720 --> 1:11:49.519
<v Speaker 1>make the education system better for all kids, and in

1:11:49.560 --> 1:11:51.920
<v Speaker 1>particular minority kids in this country. And this is the

1:11:51.920 --> 1:11:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Democrat's fault. This is what they do. I understand what

1:11:55.120 --> 1:11:57.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like to go through the process of buying life insurance.

1:11:57.880 --> 1:11:59.360
<v Speaker 1>I had to do it before I went overseas. It

1:11:59.360 --> 1:12:02.400
<v Speaker 1>felt a little bit weird. But that's why you need

1:12:02.439 --> 1:12:05.799
<v Speaker 1>to check out my friends at Ethos Life Insurance because

<v Speaker 1>gonna let this, uh sit back, relax and let the

1:13:22.680 --> 1:13:26.840

1:14:36.160 --> 1:14:40.799
<v Speaker 1>writing in on Instagram show. We have a guy writes

1:14:40.880 --> 1:14:45.360
<v Speaker 1>in Let's call him Cooper because I'm not sure what

1:14:45.400 --> 1:14:47.920
<v Speaker 1>his name is. He wrote me on Instagram, where you

1:14:47.920 --> 1:14:50.120
<v Speaker 1>can also send You can send me direct messages on

1:14:50.160 --> 1:14:52.439
<v Speaker 1>Instagram just like you can send messages. And keep in

<v Speaker 1>mind the staff here has access to everything too, so

1:14:55.760 --> 1:15:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, family show. But we have Cooper writes and

1:15:01.400 --> 1:15:03.320
<v Speaker 1>couldn't find a way to contact you v your website.

1:15:03.320 --> 1:15:06.360
<v Speaker 1>But I just wanted to say Young Guns is by

1:15:06.560 --> 1:15:10.080
<v Speaker 1>far a better movie than Men at Work, Shields High

1:15:10.120 --> 1:15:13.680
<v Speaker 1>and Center five with thank you, Cooper. I appreciate it.

1:15:14.760 --> 1:15:17.680
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's a I think that's an astute

1:15:18.200 --> 1:15:23.759
<v Speaker 1>analysis of the situation. So there it is, my friend,

1:15:23.840 --> 1:15:26.200
<v Speaker 1>there it is in a student analysis. Indeed, I think

1:15:26.200 --> 1:15:30.960
<v Speaker 1>that it is a better definitely a better movie than

1:15:31.280 --> 1:15:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Men at Work. I'm not really a big Amelia West

1:15:33.920 --> 1:15:37.000
<v Speaker 1>de Bes guy in general, but if you haven't seen

1:15:37.040 --> 1:15:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Young Guns and you like westerns, it's kind of like

1:15:39.960 --> 1:15:42.840
<v Speaker 1>a almost like a hipster Western or something. I don't know.

1:15:42.840 --> 1:15:46.920
<v Speaker 1>It's it's very much a nineties movie, but it's pretty good.

1:15:46.960 --> 1:15:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I saw it with my brothers so many times. Hunter

1:15:51.600 --> 1:15:55.120
<v Speaker 1>writes in again on the Graham, awesome of us the instagrams.

1:15:55.240 --> 1:15:57.479
<v Speaker 1>We're going to instagram with Facebook, we'll do emails. We're

1:15:57.520 --> 1:15:59.759
<v Speaker 1>just having a little bit of a having a loose

1:16:00.160 --> 1:16:03.320
<v Speaker 1>last session here because hm, I can just I can

1:16:03.360 --> 1:16:07.240
<v Speaker 1>almost taste those the crewe dete that you've laid out,

1:16:07.439 --> 1:16:10.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, just as little palate cleanser, perhaps some stalks

1:16:10.920 --> 1:16:14.559
<v Speaker 1>of celery with a bit of blue cheese, a bit

1:16:14.560 --> 1:16:17.759
<v Speaker 1>of blue cheese dressing to dip in. Not ranch dressing, folks,

1:16:17.760 --> 1:16:21.559
<v Speaker 1>blue cheese dressing. All right, let's be civilized, Hunter writes.

1:16:22.960 --> 1:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>My name is Hunter, and I'm from Texas. I want

1:16:24.920 --> 1:16:27.400
<v Speaker 1>to tell you how much I support you. I'm very

1:16:27.400 --> 1:16:29.479
<v Speaker 1>recent Christian, and I became a follower of Jesus from

1:16:29.479 --> 1:16:34.160
<v Speaker 1>a totally unlikely background. I was previously an extremely left

1:16:34.240 --> 1:16:37.920
<v Speaker 1>wing liberal Jew. In the span of the last year,

1:16:37.960 --> 1:16:40.320
<v Speaker 1>all those things have changed. I've begun to be transformed

1:16:40.880 --> 1:16:43.160
<v Speaker 1>because of this change. I've become a huge fan of

1:16:43.200 --> 1:16:46.680
<v Speaker 1>yours and your leadership for conservatism and traditional values and

1:16:46.760 --> 1:16:50.080
<v Speaker 1>masculinity in America. But I'm actually most impressed by what

1:16:50.120 --> 1:16:53.360
<v Speaker 1>an amazing person you are. Studying the Bible and following

1:16:53.439 --> 1:16:55.439
<v Speaker 1>Christ with the Christian community helps me see that, and

1:16:55.479 --> 1:16:56.880
<v Speaker 1>that's what made me want to share with you how

1:16:56.960 --> 1:16:59.760
<v Speaker 1>much I've changed and been impacted by your example. Thank

1:16:59.760 --> 1:17:01.559
<v Speaker 1>you so much for being an amazing role model in

1:17:01.640 --> 1:17:04.680
<v Speaker 1>christ Hunter Well, Hunter, God blessman. Thank you so much.

1:17:04.680 --> 1:17:08.400
<v Speaker 1>It's a very very kind message, and I hope I will.

1:17:08.720 --> 1:17:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I hope I can going forward live up to that message,

1:17:12.360 --> 1:17:14.080
<v Speaker 1>because this is a very very nice thing that you

1:17:14.360 --> 1:17:19.720
<v Speaker 1>wrote in So thank you so much. I don't know

1:17:19.880 --> 1:17:21.559
<v Speaker 1>I see, I don't know people's names because I only

1:17:21.560 --> 1:17:23.120
<v Speaker 1>have their screen and I don't want to use people's

1:17:23.120 --> 1:17:25.760
<v Speaker 1>screen names without asking them first. So we'll just call

1:17:25.800 --> 1:17:29.559
<v Speaker 1>this guy Rob, even though that's not his name. Hey Buck,

1:17:29.600 --> 1:17:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I was catching up on the podcast as a licensed

1:17:32.479 --> 1:17:36.360
<v Speaker 1>mental professional. I want to clear up a misconception. There

1:17:36.360 --> 1:17:39.679
<v Speaker 1>are many mental health providers who are conservative. However, mental

1:17:39.800 --> 1:17:43.760
<v Speaker 1>health providers do not have conscious conscientious protection and face

1:17:43.840 --> 1:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>a very liberal lineup of higher education institutions, journals, and

1:17:47.040 --> 1:17:51.720
<v Speaker 1>associations such as the APA and ACA. For any conservative

1:17:51.760 --> 1:17:53.840
<v Speaker 1>mental health provider who would like to surround themselves with

1:17:53.840 --> 1:17:56.120
<v Speaker 1>those who see the truth and the true effects of

1:17:56.160 --> 1:18:01.080
<v Speaker 1>medical surgical treatment of gender dysphoria, aap log has a

1:18:01.120 --> 1:18:03.840
<v Speaker 1>new mental health wing working on spreading the truth. I

1:18:03.920 --> 1:18:08.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know what aplog is, but thank you quote Rob,

1:18:08.360 --> 1:18:09.760
<v Speaker 1>because I don't know what your real name is the

1:18:09.880 --> 1:18:16.080
<v Speaker 1>mental health professional. I appreciate I appreciate you writing in.

1:18:16.920 --> 1:18:20.559
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I didn't say that all people who are

1:18:20.720 --> 1:18:24.240
<v Speaker 1>mental health practitioners are liberals. It's just the most by

1:18:25.040 --> 1:18:29.920
<v Speaker 1>party affiliation, it is the most liberal of the mental

1:18:29.960 --> 1:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>health professions. So you have more Democrats who are shrinks

1:18:35.479 --> 1:18:38.720
<v Speaker 1>than you do, say, have Democrats who are surgeons. And

1:18:38.800 --> 1:18:42.400
<v Speaker 1>now we will transition. Remember guys, check out the Graham

1:18:42.520 --> 1:18:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Buck on the Instagram. I'll probably post a photo of Tallulah.

1:18:46.400 --> 1:18:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be scratching her belly, feeding your giant chunks of

1:18:50.200 --> 1:18:53.200
<v Speaker 1>seared turkey meat. I guess I wouldn't be seared, it

1:18:53.200 --> 1:18:55.880
<v Speaker 1>would be baked. You bake a road Do you roast

1:18:55.960 --> 1:19:00.640
<v Speaker 1>or bake a turkey? You roast a turkey? Right? This

1:19:00.720 --> 1:19:02.720
<v Speaker 1>is great. What's the difference in roasting and baking that?

1:19:02.840 --> 1:19:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't tell you, but right, I've always heard the terminology,

1:19:06.320 --> 1:19:08.800
<v Speaker 1>know turkey. I mean you put in the oven, you

1:19:08.840 --> 1:19:10.439
<v Speaker 1>turn the heat up, you roast in it, and you're

1:19:10.439 --> 1:19:14.200
<v Speaker 1>baking it. Roast sounds more. I know that the thing

1:19:14.240 --> 1:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>with the fire at the top is the broiler, and

1:19:16.960 --> 1:19:18.640
<v Speaker 1>you get to bast it too, and you bait. I

1:19:18.640 --> 1:19:21.519
<v Speaker 1>know what basting is. It's where you you dripped the

1:19:21.560 --> 1:19:24.240
<v Speaker 1>juice all over it. Right, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

1:19:24.280 --> 1:19:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I've never really been involved in the turkey cooking. One

1:19:26.160 --> 1:19:27.599
<v Speaker 1>day I'll have to learn how to do this myself.

1:19:27.640 --> 1:19:31.720
<v Speaker 1>I have learned how to cook that bird. I might

1:19:31.720 --> 1:19:33.439
<v Speaker 1>go see a movie bout, Michael C. Have you seen

1:19:33.600 --> 1:19:38.559
<v Speaker 1>um Ford Versus Ferrari? I might go check it out. No,

1:19:38.720 --> 1:19:41.360
<v Speaker 1>but I did finally see Joker. What do you think

1:19:41.920 --> 1:19:45.479
<v Speaker 1>it is probably one of the best, uh comic movies

1:19:45.520 --> 1:19:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I've seen in a very very long time. Yeah, because

1:19:48.400 --> 1:19:51.680
<v Speaker 1>it focused more on speaking of mental health, focus more

1:19:51.720 --> 1:19:53.920
<v Speaker 1>on the person and the story instead of all the

1:19:53.960 --> 1:19:56.519
<v Speaker 1>CGI stuff going on. It was it was a real

1:19:56.640 --> 1:20:00.080
<v Speaker 1>it was a real story that had human connection and

1:20:00.080 --> 1:20:03.000
<v Speaker 1>an impact, and it felt like it felt like something

1:20:03.040 --> 1:20:07.880
<v Speaker 1>that people would remember afterwards. Sure. Yeah, I look, I

1:20:07.920 --> 1:20:09.439
<v Speaker 1>thought it was I thought it was excellent, and people

1:20:09.479 --> 1:20:11.519
<v Speaker 1>said it was so sounds. I mean, there's some violent stuff,

1:20:11.520 --> 1:20:13.680
<v Speaker 1>but it's not super it's not ultra violent. No. I mean,

1:20:13.720 --> 1:20:15.560
<v Speaker 1>if you're going pulp fiction and this stuff back in

1:20:15.600 --> 1:20:17.559
<v Speaker 1>the day, it's not like that. No. No, I mean

1:20:17.640 --> 1:20:21.559
<v Speaker 1>maybe compared to Aunt Man and some of the lighter

1:20:21.920 --> 1:20:24.679
<v Speaker 1>comic movies perhaps, but as far as the movie itself,

1:20:24.680 --> 1:20:27.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you see any Tarantino movie, Those are violent,

1:20:28.360 --> 1:20:30.960
<v Speaker 1>very violent. Yeah, I'm by the way, I am. I

1:20:30.960 --> 1:20:33.719
<v Speaker 1>am an anti Tarantino guy. As far as his movies

1:20:33.800 --> 1:20:36.040
<v Speaker 1>in general, or just him as, I don't like him.

1:20:36.040 --> 1:20:38.320
<v Speaker 1>You don't like pulp fiction, I don't like any of it,

1:20:38.439 --> 1:20:39.960
<v Speaker 1>all right, I've seen a lot of it. No, I know,

1:20:39.960 --> 1:20:41.880
<v Speaker 1>people look at me like I'm crazy. I mean, did

1:20:41.880 --> 1:20:45.120
<v Speaker 1>you like inglorious bastards. Yeah, not one of my favorites

1:20:45.280 --> 1:20:48.479
<v Speaker 1>by him, but reservoir dogs. No, wait, hold on a

1:20:48.520 --> 1:20:52.880
<v Speaker 1>second producer, Nick, who's coming in from the mother ship.

1:20:52.960 --> 1:20:54.559
<v Speaker 1>He says, here we go. So now, I mean, now

1:20:54.560 --> 1:20:58.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't sound like a fool on radio. Roasting occurs

1:20:58.960 --> 1:21:03.360
<v Speaker 1>at higher temp ritures with an uncovered pen. So that

1:21:03.920 --> 1:21:06.439
<v Speaker 1>how okay? How many of you at home really knew

1:21:06.439 --> 1:21:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the difference he's baking and roasted. I mean, you know

1:21:09.000 --> 1:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>there are different things, But did you know that I

1:21:10.800 --> 1:21:12.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't know that. We need to get the more you know,

1:21:12.840 --> 1:21:15.679
<v Speaker 1>sound bite on the board. Knowing is half the battle,

1:21:15.720 --> 1:21:18.280
<v Speaker 1>remember that. Yeah, we grew up, we do. We grew

1:21:18.320 --> 1:21:20.320
<v Speaker 1>up with such better cartoons. Yeah, we grew up with

1:21:20.360 --> 1:21:22.920
<v Speaker 1>cartoons that made us Americans. You know. Now they grew

1:21:22.960 --> 1:21:27.080
<v Speaker 1>up with cartoons. It's like they're making a little teletubby communists. Yeah,

1:21:27.160 --> 1:21:29.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's not good. It's not good. All right?

1:21:29.360 --> 1:21:31.639
<v Speaker 1>So I know what roasting guys? I learned? Hey, learn something,

1:21:32.040 --> 1:21:37.599
<v Speaker 1>learn something new every day. It's kind of exciting. David. Fuck,

1:21:37.640 --> 1:21:43.639
<v Speaker 1>You're right about the euro marketing campaigns. Remember far fig Nugan.

1:21:44.439 --> 1:21:46.800
<v Speaker 1>It sounded awesome until they started lying about their fuel

1:21:46.800 --> 1:21:49.040
<v Speaker 1>efficiency and it almost sunk them. Keep up the work,

1:21:49.040 --> 1:21:53.720
<v Speaker 1>take care. What's a far fig Nugan? Do we know?

1:21:55.080 --> 1:21:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Producer Brandon, I might need you to google this one.

1:21:56.720 --> 1:21:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what to f I'll google it. But

1:21:58.040 --> 1:21:59.439
<v Speaker 1>I guess thought that was a name you would call

1:21:59.560 --> 1:22:03.479
<v Speaker 1>some boss. It's Vassist. I'm farfek Nugan. Yeah, I don't

1:22:03.520 --> 1:22:12.040
<v Speaker 1>know fafeknugans or nickt kut zeffik nugan. What is that?

1:22:13.560 --> 1:22:17.080
<v Speaker 1>Is it a car? In German? It's a German word

1:22:17.120 --> 1:22:22.360
<v Speaker 1>that means driving pleasure or driving enjoyment. It's used mostly

1:22:22.400 --> 1:22:24.519
<v Speaker 1>to talk about the pleasure and delight one gets from

1:22:24.640 --> 1:22:30.479
<v Speaker 1>driving around. Ohtoo doan? Yeah? So what makes a car

1:22:31.280 --> 1:22:34.800
<v Speaker 1>of Voltswagen? Found got something new every day? And San Look,

1:22:34.840 --> 1:22:38.080
<v Speaker 1>it's this is a learning section of the soul. Will

1:22:38.120 --> 1:22:40.720
<v Speaker 1>we just do these things where we learn? Yeah? Now

1:22:40.880 --> 1:22:43.680
<v Speaker 1>is the time on spruckets where we dance. You know,

1:22:43.800 --> 1:22:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you remember, I don't care anybody says those were the

1:22:46.760 --> 1:22:50.840
<v Speaker 1>SNL glory days. I'm as HAPs what's up there? We'd go?

1:22:50.880 --> 1:22:53.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm as happy as a little girl. Yeah, Mike Myers,

1:22:53.680 --> 1:22:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Dana Carvey, that was the Chris Farley, that was the peak.

1:22:58.680 --> 1:23:00.519
<v Speaker 1>You go back and watch people look, oh yeah, this

1:23:00.640 --> 1:23:03.760
<v Speaker 1>guy Belushi where there's like cheeseburger, cheeseburger and like the

1:23:03.880 --> 1:23:06.880
<v Speaker 1>samurai sushi that's not fat stuff. That might have been

1:23:06.880 --> 1:23:09.040
<v Speaker 1>funny fifty years ago. Man, that stuff doesn't hold up.

1:23:09.160 --> 1:23:10.800
<v Speaker 1>I know all the Boomers are gonna yell at me.

1:23:10.840 --> 1:23:15.280
<v Speaker 1>It's fine. I love you Boomers. James writes in I'm

1:23:15.320 --> 1:23:17.320
<v Speaker 1>having problems with the roll call audio. Is the other

1:23:17.400 --> 1:23:21.960
<v Speaker 1>person even your normal audio is louder than you. Blah blah, guys.

1:23:22.000 --> 1:23:23.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't know, man, I don't know what

1:23:23.600 --> 1:23:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the problem is with the audio. Producer Mark gets so

1:23:27.200 --> 1:23:28.640
<v Speaker 1>he's not here right now. Can you get married in

1:23:28.640 --> 1:23:30.880
<v Speaker 1>a few days? May I look at that producer? Mark

1:23:30.920 --> 1:23:35.560
<v Speaker 1>gets so churmudgeonly. I'm telling you so curmudgingly. When I

1:23:35.640 --> 1:23:39.720
<v Speaker 1>tell him, hey, you know, people are saying that there's

1:23:39.800 --> 1:23:41.880
<v Speaker 1>audio problems the podcast, He's like, I don't want to

1:23:41.920 --> 1:23:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hear any of this nonsense from any of you. So

1:23:46.240 --> 1:23:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to hear it, though, So keep telling me

1:23:47.600 --> 1:23:49.160
<v Speaker 1>if there's a problem, But I'll just I'll feed it

1:23:49.240 --> 1:23:51.439
<v Speaker 1>the producer Mark, and we'll make sure we you know.

1:23:51.640 --> 1:23:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll give him. I'll give him some cookies or something

1:23:54.080 --> 1:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>to make sure he doesn't get mad at me. I'll

1:23:55.800 --> 1:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>buy him off somehow. Take it just a little moment

1:23:59.880 --> 1:24:01.920
<v Speaker 1>of a little moment of zen. Here and we're rolling

1:24:02.000 --> 1:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>with roll Call right before Thanksgiving, because I'm here working hard,

1:24:06.520 --> 1:24:09.000
<v Speaker 1>doing a show for all of you. Even though a

1:24:09.160 --> 1:24:11.599
<v Speaker 1>lot of my peers are like, oh, I'm gonna take

1:24:11.600 --> 1:24:14.800
<v Speaker 1>a three day a three day holiday during the week.

1:24:15.160 --> 1:24:18.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. His freedom gonna spread itself? Is the freedom

1:24:18.200 --> 1:24:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Hutch just gonna, you know, do its own thing without

1:24:20.160 --> 1:24:22.960
<v Speaker 1>us here to make sure that the Libs, the commies,

1:24:23.000 --> 1:24:25.760
<v Speaker 1>and the evildoers are held responsible. I think not. I

1:24:25.880 --> 1:24:28.680
<v Speaker 1>think we all know the answer to that question. So

1:24:29.240 --> 1:24:32.880
<v Speaker 1>we get back into this, my men, Here we go.

1:24:35.360 --> 1:24:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Next up we are, We're doing the Facebook. We'll get

1:24:37.920 --> 1:24:40.559
<v Speaker 1>to the emails if I can figure out where they are, Victor.

1:24:41.760 --> 1:24:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Victor writes, greetings, Oh, great one, what has happened to

1:24:45.960 --> 1:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>the Drudge Report? As Master Yoda would say, the dark

1:24:50.160 --> 1:24:53.400
<v Speaker 1>side I sense in you? Is that pretty good? That's

1:24:53.400 --> 1:24:56.120
<v Speaker 1>pretty good? Right? My Yoda wasn't bad for a guy

1:24:56.240 --> 1:24:59.200
<v Speaker 1>never does Yoda on the show or does yoga, but

1:24:59.320 --> 1:25:02.360
<v Speaker 1>doesn't do Yoda either, A little bit of Grovey. Yeah,

1:25:03.479 --> 1:25:05.599
<v Speaker 1>it might be the same guy, though voices it could

1:25:05.680 --> 1:25:09.479
<v Speaker 1>we Matt Drudge seems way too negative on Trump lately,

1:25:09.600 --> 1:25:12.440
<v Speaker 1>as abundantly clear as a bright, sunning day along the horizon,

1:25:12.720 --> 1:25:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Thank you buck. Yeah, people have gotten kind of upset

1:25:16.280 --> 1:25:18.439
<v Speaker 1>with Drudge recently. I don't really know what that's about.

1:25:18.479 --> 1:25:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why why we got Drudge all of

1:25:21.880 --> 1:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, not really being on the Trump train. It's

1:25:24.680 --> 1:25:26.360
<v Speaker 1>not even that sudden. It's been a while now. But

1:25:26.840 --> 1:25:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Trudge is a is a shadowy, shadowy figure,

1:25:30.840 --> 1:25:35.080
<v Speaker 1>shadowy character. He's elusive, like a snow leopard. You never

1:25:35.080 --> 1:25:37.040
<v Speaker 1>know where you're gonna find him, never know where he's

1:25:37.040 --> 1:25:39.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna turn up. And I guess snow leopards actually have

1:25:39.920 --> 1:25:41.840
<v Speaker 1>to stay at high altitude in very limited regions. But

1:25:41.880 --> 1:25:44.760
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, hard to find. I don't

1:25:44.800 --> 1:25:46.400
<v Speaker 1>know what the deal is with Drudge. I never met him.

1:25:46.960 --> 1:25:48.479
<v Speaker 1>I've never talked to Matt Drudge, so I don't know.

1:25:48.520 --> 1:25:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think he knows who I am, So

1:25:50.280 --> 1:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't say that I have anything like that. Here

1:25:53.840 --> 1:25:55.760
<v Speaker 1>we go, Matt writes in oh a little more. The

1:25:55.880 --> 1:26:00.719
<v Speaker 1>more you know. Doo doo, doo doo. Remember that, Matt

1:26:00.760 --> 1:26:03.719
<v Speaker 1>writes in because I mentioned that the sweetbreads yesterday, we're disgusting,

1:26:03.880 --> 1:26:08.320
<v Speaker 1>And I'm correct. There's that trying to save you all

1:26:08.400 --> 1:26:10.240
<v Speaker 1>from making the mistake that many of may before if

1:26:10.280 --> 1:26:13.600
<v Speaker 1>going to restaurant like, oh, sweetbreads. I like bread. I

1:26:13.760 --> 1:26:17.560
<v Speaker 1>like things that are sweet. Perhaps I shall like sweetbread. No,

1:26:18.560 --> 1:26:21.840
<v Speaker 1>it is not like chocolate flavored bread. It is, as

1:26:21.920 --> 1:26:27.799
<v Speaker 1>Matt points out, the thymus or pancreas glands. That sounds

1:26:27.840 --> 1:26:30.479
<v Speaker 1>even grosser than what I was talking about. I think

1:26:30.520 --> 1:26:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I would take intestines over thymus or pancreas. Honestly, maybe not.

1:26:35.479 --> 1:26:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Intestants are kind of gross too. And he also says

1:26:38.360 --> 1:26:42.680
<v Speaker 1>here that tongue taste like pot roast. I believe you,

1:26:42.840 --> 1:26:45.640
<v Speaker 1>but let me also say that I don't know what

1:26:47.000 --> 1:26:48.960
<v Speaker 1>pot roast taste like, so I can't say if it

1:26:49.000 --> 1:26:51.160
<v Speaker 1>tastes like tongue or not. I don't have ever had it.

1:26:52.240 --> 1:26:57.559
<v Speaker 1>Brand In Hey, brother Buck and producer Mark Shields high

1:26:58.720 --> 1:27:02.120
<v Speaker 1>congrats in the upcoming wedding this weekend. Producer Mark, marriage

1:27:02.439 --> 1:27:05.439
<v Speaker 1>is not easy, but nothing good, ever, is just remember

1:27:05.479 --> 1:27:08.639
<v Speaker 1>the words of Winston Churchill, never never, never give up

1:27:09.439 --> 1:27:11.679
<v Speaker 1>praying for you both. God bless you and your future bride.

1:27:11.680 --> 1:27:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Producer Mark, back to business. Last night, I was at

1:27:15.479 --> 1:27:19.280
<v Speaker 1>the Polhattan, Virginia Board of Supervisors meeting where a board

1:27:19.400 --> 1:27:23.200
<v Speaker 1>voted to make our county a Second Amendment sanctuary county

1:27:23.680 --> 1:27:27.759
<v Speaker 1>due to the gun grabbing legislation that the Democratic Party

1:27:27.840 --> 1:27:31.720
<v Speaker 1>is voting on in January. There's a wave of patriots

1:27:32.680 --> 1:27:35.280
<v Speaker 1>attending these meetings in record numbers. I haven't seen anything

1:27:35.320 --> 1:27:38.120
<v Speaker 1>like this since the Tea Party movement. The organization that

1:27:38.200 --> 1:27:40.759
<v Speaker 1>informed me about it is called the Virginia Citizens Defense

1:27:40.840 --> 1:27:45.360
<v Speaker 1>League or VCDL. As of last night, Virginia has had

1:27:45.479 --> 1:27:49.400
<v Speaker 1>fifteen counties become Second Amendment sanctuary counties, and many more

1:27:49.439 --> 1:27:52.679
<v Speaker 1>have planned to meet. Shields are high in Virginia. Brother,

1:27:52.720 --> 1:27:56.840
<v Speaker 1>God bless you Airborne all the way. Brandon. Sounds like

1:27:56.960 --> 1:27:59.840
<v Speaker 1>a Second Amend sanctuary thing is a good, good move,

1:28:00.080 --> 1:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>So good luck and God bless on that. Let me know,

1:28:02.479 --> 1:28:05.519
<v Speaker 1>let me know how that goes. I don't know. I

1:28:05.600 --> 1:28:08.360
<v Speaker 1>hadn't heard about this before. So see, we're learning all

1:28:08.479 --> 1:28:11.760
<v Speaker 1>kinds of new things here on the show. That is

1:28:11.840 --> 1:28:13.920
<v Speaker 1>just the way it is on the Buck Sexton Show,

1:28:14.960 --> 1:28:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Adam Right's Buck Good News. Timberlake was caught with his

1:28:19.640 --> 1:28:23.840
<v Speaker 1>hands in the cookie jar. That's a Jessica Bill. Maybe

1:28:23.960 --> 1:28:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Jessica Sexton. After all, there's Hope Shields High. Oh what

1:28:29.439 --> 1:28:31.920
<v Speaker 1>did producer Brandon? What did Timberlake do? I didn't even

1:28:31.960 --> 1:28:35.479
<v Speaker 1>see this, do we know? I couldn't tell you. I'll

1:28:35.479 --> 1:28:39.720
<v Speaker 1>have to google that one as well. How could Eddie

1:28:39.720 --> 1:28:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Man cheat on Jessica Bill? Good? Heavens good, heavens Man.

1:28:43.360 --> 1:28:48.439
<v Speaker 1>I say, it's absurd, How absurd? I don't know if

1:28:48.439 --> 1:28:50.720
<v Speaker 1>that happened or not. You know, maybe maybe Timberlake was just,

1:28:50.920 --> 1:28:54.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, working on some choreography super late at night

1:28:55.040 --> 1:28:57.320
<v Speaker 1>in the hotel room or something. I don't know, he

1:28:57.520 --> 1:29:00.560
<v Speaker 1>was spotting justin that is JT to the to the

1:29:00.640 --> 1:29:03.320
<v Speaker 1>kids holding hands with the co star of his I

1:29:03.360 --> 1:29:08.519
<v Speaker 1>guess on some movie set. Yeah, is that? I don't know.

1:29:09.000 --> 1:29:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Is that a thing I like? Is that? I mean? Hell,

1:29:11.439 --> 1:29:12.880
<v Speaker 1>the hand a little? I mean like, okay, if I

1:29:12.960 --> 1:29:16.160
<v Speaker 1>were married and somebody was holding my wife's hand who

1:29:16.439 --> 1:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>was not a you know, immediate relative or something like

1:29:18.920 --> 1:29:24.360
<v Speaker 1>her dad, that might I think that's a bother party foul.

1:29:24.479 --> 1:29:26.400
<v Speaker 1>There could be more to the story. Maybe there could

1:29:26.439 --> 1:29:28.240
<v Speaker 1>be Maybe they were just working on the hand holding

1:29:28.280 --> 1:29:30.920
<v Speaker 1>for the next big scene. Yes, yes, I don't know.

1:29:30.960 --> 1:29:32.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to I'm trying to find the bright side here.

1:29:32.600 --> 1:29:36.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to revel in the marital misery of

1:29:37.160 --> 1:29:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel. Even though she was my

1:29:40.200 --> 1:29:42.439
<v Speaker 1>high school CROs when we were growing up, so she

1:29:42.560 --> 1:29:44.800
<v Speaker 1>was pretty. She's pretty fantastic. Mary Camp did seventh have

1:29:44.880 --> 1:29:47.519
<v Speaker 1>a man and we were the same age. She was great,

1:29:47.840 --> 1:29:50.599
<v Speaker 1>she could even she even even good at basketball, just saying,

1:29:51.400 --> 1:29:56.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean I was probably better. Uh. Gina Wright's book

1:29:56.560 --> 1:30:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Appetite for Destruction, Shield Tie and rock On. What was that? Oh? She?

1:30:01.080 --> 1:30:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I think she's I think that Gene's trying to be helpful.

1:30:03.000 --> 1:30:04.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't know she understands that. Brandon, what is your

1:30:04.680 --> 1:30:06.920
<v Speaker 1>podcast called? Because you have a podcast, I appreciate you

1:30:07.000 --> 1:30:10.040
<v Speaker 1>asking Appetite for Distortion, which of course is a playoff

1:30:10.040 --> 1:30:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Appetite of Destruction, their first Landmark album. So producer Brandon

1:30:14.720 --> 1:30:16.800
<v Speaker 1>over here does a show where he talks about everything

1:30:16.880 --> 1:30:20.360
<v Speaker 1>guns and roses. Right, Yeah, a lot of profile interviews,

1:30:20.520 --> 1:30:23.479
<v Speaker 1>So it's not just hey, my favorite song, my favorite album.

1:30:24.200 --> 1:30:26.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, if whether it's a former band member or

1:30:26.040 --> 1:30:29.120
<v Speaker 1>a comedian and author, um, you know, is there a

1:30:29.200 --> 1:30:31.840
<v Speaker 1>casema that Slash is the greatest rock guitarist of all time?

1:30:32.200 --> 1:30:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't think so. Oh yeah, Now I thought I

1:30:34.880 --> 1:30:37.800
<v Speaker 1>was giving you an easy one to like that is

1:30:38.320 --> 1:30:41.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean, does Hendricks, Eddie van Halen. I mean, there's

1:30:41.520 --> 1:30:44.759
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot Stevie Ray Vaughan, there's so many Eric Clapton,

1:30:45.920 --> 1:30:49.120
<v Speaker 1>There's there's a lot up there. But but Slash does

1:30:49.200 --> 1:30:51.800
<v Speaker 1>have a cool top hat. Oh absolutely, she still rocks.

1:30:52.040 --> 1:30:55.599
<v Speaker 1>We're rolling here with a special Thanksgiving role call. Want

1:30:55.640 --> 1:30:58.040
<v Speaker 1>to bring in all the voices from across the country.

1:30:58.240 --> 1:31:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Is you're getting ready, you're just oh, you can smell

1:31:01.479 --> 1:31:03.840
<v Speaker 1>that turkey. You can just oh, you can taste it.

1:31:03.960 --> 1:31:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully you're not stuck in traffic somewhere trying to get

1:31:06.800 --> 1:31:08.479
<v Speaker 1>to see your loved ones. So that will certainly be

1:31:08.560 --> 1:31:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the case for some people as they're listening to this,

1:31:10.280 --> 1:31:14.479
<v Speaker 1>because man, those Thanksgiving roads we used to go. We

1:31:14.560 --> 1:31:17.960
<v Speaker 1>used to go visit my dad's mother, so my grandmother

1:31:18.040 --> 1:31:23.080
<v Speaker 1>on the father's side, down in Charlottesville, Virginia, and we

1:31:23.120 --> 1:31:25.599
<v Speaker 1>would drive down to Charlottesville, all six of us, because

1:31:25.600 --> 1:31:27.679
<v Speaker 1>I want to force those four kids and my family

1:31:27.720 --> 1:31:30.200
<v Speaker 1>and my mom and dad, and we would drive down there,

1:31:30.439 --> 1:31:33.200
<v Speaker 1>and many times we made that made the trip in

1:31:33.320 --> 1:31:40.680
<v Speaker 1>a Cadillac Sedan, like an old school I think it

1:31:40.760 --> 1:31:43.840
<v Speaker 1>was from like nineteen seventy eight or something, and this

1:31:44.040 --> 1:31:48.080
<v Speaker 1>was in the nineties, so really old Cadillacs, a dad

1:31:48.479 --> 1:31:50.680
<v Speaker 1>that did not have air conditioning that worked, by the way,

1:31:51.160 --> 1:31:54.400
<v Speaker 1>which was not a big deal for going down for Thanksgiving,

1:31:54.400 --> 1:31:57.479
<v Speaker 1>but when we would drive down there for fourth or July,

1:31:57.680 --> 1:32:01.480
<v Speaker 1>that was not always optimal. It was it was suboptimal.

1:32:01.600 --> 1:32:03.960
<v Speaker 1>But driving down to Thanksgiving and driving down to Charlotte's

1:32:04.000 --> 1:32:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Villliver Thanksgiving from New York City, it's like you're trying

1:32:07.280 --> 1:32:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to go to do the worst leg of travel in

1:32:11.280 --> 1:32:14.320
<v Speaker 1>the worst single corridor in the entire country as a

1:32:14.560 --> 1:32:16.559
<v Speaker 1>as a tradition, but it brought us closer as a family.

1:32:17.400 --> 1:32:20.280
<v Speaker 1>There were times were almost run out of gas, there

1:32:20.320 --> 1:32:23.840
<v Speaker 1>were flat tires, there were you know, incidents of plenty

1:32:24.000 --> 1:32:25.920
<v Speaker 1>on that on that road trip back of the day.

1:32:26.000 --> 1:32:28.760
<v Speaker 1>And you know, this is before we all had smartphones

1:32:28.840 --> 1:32:30.439
<v Speaker 1>and GPS and everything else, so you know, you got

1:32:30.560 --> 1:32:31.960
<v Speaker 1>into a road trip. There was a little bit of

1:32:32.000 --> 1:32:33.960
<v Speaker 1>like a little bit of like a you know, Lewis

1:32:34.000 --> 1:32:35.519
<v Speaker 1>and Clark vibe. You're like, I don't know if we go.

1:32:35.640 --> 1:32:36.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if we're gonna make it. You know,

1:32:36.720 --> 1:32:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if we're gonna get all the way

1:32:37.920 --> 1:32:40.640
<v Speaker 1>down to charlottes Ville, Virginia. We get down there, and

1:32:40.640 --> 1:32:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I remember being kid, I was like, these people all

1:32:41.880 --> 1:32:43.880
<v Speaker 1>have these kind of funny accents, like, oh hello bug.

1:32:44.080 --> 1:32:46.639
<v Speaker 1>Well in the Charlotte's vie, I was like, oh, wow,

1:32:46.840 --> 1:32:50.679
<v Speaker 1>hello to you. You know, it's great. Um. They don't

1:32:50.680 --> 1:32:52.479
<v Speaker 1>have those accents in northern Virginia. Like when I worked

1:32:52.520 --> 1:32:54.680
<v Speaker 1>with the CIA, you go around, none of that in

1:32:54.720 --> 1:32:56.639
<v Speaker 1>Northern Virginia. But you get down to Charlotte's when people

1:32:56.640 --> 1:32:59.599
<v Speaker 1>actually have the cool accents. So they don't all say

1:32:59.640 --> 1:33:02.800
<v Speaker 1>I do Claia, though, which makes me, oh, I do Declaia.

1:33:02.960 --> 1:33:05.880
<v Speaker 1>That's not a thing us New York. They don't have

1:33:05.960 --> 1:33:08.799
<v Speaker 1>a fan. They don't not say ohoo, good loo Declaia.

1:33:09.160 --> 1:33:11.519
<v Speaker 1>That's not a turns out people in the South don't

1:33:11.520 --> 1:33:13.000
<v Speaker 1>actually say I learned this when I was a kid,

1:33:13.000 --> 1:33:15.880
<v Speaker 1>because I was a New Yorker. I was a Yankee

1:33:16.000 --> 1:33:18.920
<v Speaker 1>from New York City. So yeah, man, we used to

1:33:18.960 --> 1:33:21.040
<v Speaker 1>go down. There's a long, long road trip. So any

1:33:21.080 --> 1:33:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of you that are stuck on the road and we're

1:33:23.000 --> 1:33:24.760
<v Speaker 1>in traffic out I'm just telling you, at least you

1:33:24.880 --> 1:33:28.679
<v Speaker 1>can and you have buck Sexton podcast to keep you company.

1:33:29.000 --> 1:33:32.200
<v Speaker 1>If if for some reason you make the ill advised

1:33:32.320 --> 1:33:34.479
<v Speaker 1>choice not to indulge in just catching up in Buck

1:33:34.520 --> 1:33:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Sexton podcasts, you could listen to an enormous music library

1:33:38.160 --> 1:33:40.120
<v Speaker 1>on your phone or on your touch screen and your

1:33:40.439 --> 1:33:43.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever it may be. And that's just it's such a

1:33:43.280 --> 1:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>game change from what it used to be. I mean,

1:33:45.000 --> 1:33:46.519
<v Speaker 1>I remember being stuck in that car. There's nothing to do,

1:33:46.640 --> 1:33:48.920
<v Speaker 1>so look out the window. Just look at the window

1:33:48.960 --> 1:33:52.000
<v Speaker 1>for hours and hours and hours and hours, and you're like, okay,

1:33:52.200 --> 1:33:54.120
<v Speaker 1>you know we're on like I ninety five two, So

1:33:54.200 --> 1:33:57.080
<v Speaker 1>there's no charm. There's no charm. That's how I got

1:33:57.120 --> 1:34:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to No New Jersey. Drive through New Jersey as like, ah,

1:34:00.400 --> 1:34:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I know what this is. This is all the chemical

1:34:02.000 --> 1:34:04.160
<v Speaker 1>plants and the smells. This is New Jersey. Remember when

1:34:04.160 --> 1:34:05.360
<v Speaker 1>I was a little kid, we drive all the way

1:34:05.360 --> 1:34:08.120
<v Speaker 1>down to Charlotte'sville. It was quite a thing shots was

1:34:08.200 --> 1:34:10.880
<v Speaker 1>pretty though. The Uba campus is really nice. I liked

1:34:10.880 --> 1:34:12.479
<v Speaker 1>it down there, all right, I said, we're doing roll call.

1:34:12.520 --> 1:34:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I didn't mean to take you too far down memory

1:34:15.400 --> 1:34:17.000
<v Speaker 1>in the lane. I do remember also though, eating a

1:34:17.040 --> 1:34:20.120
<v Speaker 1>fair amount of food at those rest stops, and man,

1:34:20.280 --> 1:34:23.640
<v Speaker 1>rest stops have gotten so much nicer now. You go

1:34:23.760 --> 1:34:26.000
<v Speaker 1>down you drive from like you drive on ninety five

1:34:26.000 --> 1:34:28.400
<v Speaker 1>and you go to restaurant rest stop, they're basically like

1:34:28.520 --> 1:34:31.120
<v Speaker 1>offering you a Shiatsu massage and do you want a

1:34:31.160 --> 1:34:34.600
<v Speaker 1>wheat grass shot? And oh they have they have, you know,

1:34:34.920 --> 1:34:38.479
<v Speaker 1>organic and sustainable turkey burgers for you. I mean, rest

1:34:38.520 --> 1:34:41.720
<v Speaker 1>stops have gone into a whole other direction. True of

1:34:41.880 --> 1:34:45.120
<v Speaker 1>stadium food too, Like I go to stadiums now and

1:34:45.200 --> 1:34:47.880
<v Speaker 1>they're like, oh, would you like would you like some

1:34:48.520 --> 1:34:52.320
<v Speaker 1>some seared brisket with a side of roasted Brussels sprouts?

1:34:52.360 --> 1:34:53.600
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, I remember when you went to a

1:34:53.720 --> 1:34:56.160
<v Speaker 1>game and it was like you were lucky if you

1:34:56.320 --> 1:34:58.800
<v Speaker 1>get a big thing of soggy French fries. You were

1:34:58.880 --> 1:35:02.680
<v Speaker 1>pretty much only ga and ted popcorn and hot dogs. So,

1:35:02.960 --> 1:35:05.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, kids these days they don't realize how good

1:35:05.880 --> 1:35:07.800
<v Speaker 1>they've got it, you know, now, I'm about to be

1:35:07.920 --> 1:35:10.559
<v Speaker 1>the gray beard millennial who's calling it out when you're going,

1:35:10.920 --> 1:35:13.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, all for all the young all the young

1:35:13.600 --> 1:35:17.439
<v Speaker 1>uns who we're listening to this right now. If you

1:35:17.600 --> 1:35:20.479
<v Speaker 1>are a gen Z and you're traveling with your family,

1:35:20.520 --> 1:35:22.640
<v Speaker 1>just understand something. Kid, You got it easy, all right.

1:35:22.760 --> 1:35:26.200
<v Speaker 1>You got your little smartphone, video games, texting your friends,

1:35:26.280 --> 1:35:29.120
<v Speaker 1>everything else. Man, I used to have to get into

1:35:29.400 --> 1:35:34.640
<v Speaker 1>a small, uncomfortable sedan with five other people as a

1:35:34.800 --> 1:35:37.960
<v Speaker 1>kid and sit in traffic for like ten hours just

1:35:38.120 --> 1:35:41.600
<v Speaker 1>to get down to see some relatives in Virginia. And

1:35:41.840 --> 1:35:43.720
<v Speaker 1>that was a form that was a formative experience for

1:35:43.760 --> 1:35:45.720
<v Speaker 1>all of us. Let me tell you that, Man, what

1:35:45.760 --> 1:35:47.400
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't give to if I could have at that

1:35:47.439 --> 1:35:49.639
<v Speaker 1>point in time had some kind of little video game player,

1:35:49.720 --> 1:35:51.840
<v Speaker 1>would have been amazing. Would have really helped out or

1:35:51.920 --> 1:35:55.000
<v Speaker 1>read books, that's a thing you could do. I have

1:35:55.120 --> 1:35:57.840
<v Speaker 1>not forgotten about that. I've not forgotten that books are

1:35:58.160 --> 1:35:59.760
<v Speaker 1>a possibility for those of the one to do that.

1:36:00.560 --> 1:36:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy writing it on the roll call Buck, do you

1:36:04.080 --> 1:36:06.960
<v Speaker 1>think if the media, including yourself, just ignore the impeachment hearings,

1:36:08.000 --> 1:36:12.880
<v Speaker 1>they would lose even more traction? Also with Andrew Yang

1:36:12.920 --> 1:36:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and Tulsea Gabbard being pushed to the side of the

1:36:15.120 --> 1:36:18.760
<v Speaker 1>DNC primary. Could the Democrats be peddling dare I say

1:36:18.960 --> 1:36:21.599
<v Speaker 1>racism the one issue they see him to think separates

1:36:21.640 --> 1:36:23.559
<v Speaker 1>them from Republicans. I say this in Jess, but it's

1:36:23.560 --> 1:36:26.320
<v Speaker 1>interesting to see the front runners are all old and white.

1:36:26.920 --> 1:36:28.360
<v Speaker 1>She'll tell you. I have a great Thanksgiving. Have a

1:36:28.400 --> 1:36:30.200
<v Speaker 1>great Thanksgiving to you, Jeremy. Thank you so much for

1:36:30.280 --> 1:36:33.200
<v Speaker 1>writing in. I think Jeremy's a woe who listener. And

1:36:33.320 --> 1:36:37.559
<v Speaker 1>Fort Wayne, Indiana and the house we have ever been

1:36:37.560 --> 1:36:39.400
<v Speaker 1>in four Indiana. Lovely place, lovely people. Have been a

1:36:39.439 --> 1:36:42.400
<v Speaker 1>couple of times. Actually, yeah, it's nice. Indiana is America,

1:36:42.920 --> 1:36:45.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, Manhattan's not really America. I don't know what

1:36:45.160 --> 1:36:47.840
<v Speaker 1>this is. This is some kind of international protectorate with

1:36:48.360 --> 1:36:53.040
<v Speaker 1>way too high real estate costs. Axel Roses from Lafayette, Indiana.

1:36:53.320 --> 1:36:56.439
<v Speaker 1>Is he really? Yeah? He? He is not looking so

1:36:56.560 --> 1:37:02.120
<v Speaker 1>good these days. No comments? Uh fushing sixty or is

1:37:02.160 --> 1:37:04.040
<v Speaker 1>he really? He's not sixty yet, but he's mid to

1:37:04.120 --> 1:37:08.280
<v Speaker 1>late fifties. Wow, I know that. Just that just is mine.

1:37:08.280 --> 1:37:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I will never think of him as anything

1:37:09.960 --> 1:37:13.759
<v Speaker 1>other than guy doing the Axl Rose dance on stage,

1:37:13.800 --> 1:37:15.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, like the kind of moving the legs on

1:37:15.520 --> 1:37:17.719
<v Speaker 1>the side that think that you snake dance the Davy

1:37:17.800 --> 1:37:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Jones dance. Yeah, and and like, I mean, okay, what

1:37:21.520 --> 1:37:23.639
<v Speaker 1>is the By the way, we've never had this discussion before,

1:37:23.960 --> 1:37:26.400
<v Speaker 1>as people are probably stuck in their cars or cooking

1:37:26.439 --> 1:37:30.600
<v Speaker 1>their Thanksgiving meals or just hanging out. The greatest, the

1:37:30.760 --> 1:37:32.920
<v Speaker 1>greatest Guns and Roses song of all time? My friend,

1:37:33.400 --> 1:37:36.080
<v Speaker 1>what is it? I think this is an easy answer,

1:37:36.160 --> 1:37:38.719
<v Speaker 1>so I'm kind of I think Welcome to the Jungle

1:37:38.840 --> 1:37:42.679
<v Speaker 1>is the most universally beloved interesting either that or Sweet Child,

1:37:42.800 --> 1:37:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Sweet Child Mine? Okay, I guess Sweet Child of Mine. Okay,

1:37:45.360 --> 1:37:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's one of the greatest. It's not a

1:37:48.680 --> 1:37:50.600
<v Speaker 1>rock anthem, and I think it's one of the I

1:37:50.680 --> 1:37:52.479
<v Speaker 1>think you could argue it's one of the ten greatest

1:37:52.640 --> 1:37:58.879
<v Speaker 1>actual rock songs of I mean certainly of my lifetime.

1:37:59.040 --> 1:38:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I could say that people always put it in there. Oh,

1:38:01.760 --> 1:38:03.439
<v Speaker 1>this is like what they do with movies. Though black

1:38:03.479 --> 1:38:05.679
<v Speaker 1>and white movies are so good, they're but that's crap.

1:38:05.960 --> 1:38:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Black and white movies are mostly boring and do not

1:38:08.560 --> 1:38:11.280
<v Speaker 1>hold up same thing about older rock with them. Oh,

1:38:11.400 --> 1:38:13.920
<v Speaker 1>but you know, you really, if you really want the

1:38:14.320 --> 1:38:16.840
<v Speaker 1>good stuff you've then you've got to listen. I'm like,

1:38:16.960 --> 1:38:20.479
<v Speaker 1>the Beatles had as much garbage as they did good stuff.

1:38:21.040 --> 1:38:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Well they did a lot, so I guess you can't

1:38:23.360 --> 1:38:25.080
<v Speaker 1>win them all. A lot of it was not not

1:38:25.240 --> 1:38:28.599
<v Speaker 1>so not so good, you know. I mean, Hendrix has

1:38:28.640 --> 1:38:30.360
<v Speaker 1>a couple of really really good songs. I mean, I

1:38:30.960 --> 1:38:32.719
<v Speaker 1>appreciate that you said that Hendrix might be the greatest

1:38:32.800 --> 1:38:34.240
<v Speaker 1>rock guitars of all time. I think I could go

1:38:34.320 --> 1:38:36.840
<v Speaker 1>for that. I could get into it, but I sweech

1:38:36.880 --> 1:38:39.160
<v Speaker 1>out in the Mind is amazing. Welcome to the Jungle

1:38:40.479 --> 1:38:42.800
<v Speaker 1>is that. It's definitely it's one of those two because

1:38:43.320 --> 1:38:45.639
<v Speaker 1>it's not November rain, That's for sure. That's my favorite.

1:38:45.640 --> 1:38:50.320
<v Speaker 1>That's my personal favorite. What it is? I like what

1:38:50.520 --> 1:38:53.720
<v Speaker 1>is happening the epics mixed in with the rock. I like,

1:38:54.320 --> 1:38:56.880
<v Speaker 1>I like the grand of it. I oh man, I

1:38:57.000 --> 1:38:59.320
<v Speaker 1>just went for them trying. That was one I get

1:38:59.400 --> 1:39:01.760
<v Speaker 1>marked back. I can't even remember what's it, so I

1:39:01.800 --> 1:39:04.280
<v Speaker 1>get mark back here. No, no, no, it's fun. I'm

1:39:04.320 --> 1:39:06.160
<v Speaker 1>just trying to think of what the other the other

1:39:06.280 --> 1:39:08.320
<v Speaker 1>great Guns and Roses songs are. Well, this is why

1:39:08.360 --> 1:39:12.639
<v Speaker 1>I because you can speak to everybody universally with politics.

1:39:13.840 --> 1:39:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Despite the fact that Gina was my favorite band to me,

1:39:15.760 --> 1:39:18.000
<v Speaker 1>no matter what generation you are, you know sweet shad

1:39:18.000 --> 1:39:20.160
<v Speaker 1>of Mine, you know. So that's that's the point. You

1:39:20.240 --> 1:39:22.000
<v Speaker 1>can ask anybody in the street. They know that song.

1:39:22.120 --> 1:39:25.080
<v Speaker 1>It's a look, it's a fantastic song, um so, and

1:39:25.120 --> 1:39:27.479
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those few songs from a Guns and

1:39:27.560 --> 1:39:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Roses considered a hair band that's actually a topic of

1:39:30.320 --> 1:39:33.080
<v Speaker 1>conversation sometimes. I don't think so. I think they kind

1:39:33.120 --> 1:39:35.559
<v Speaker 1>of killed that a little bit. I mean because they

1:39:35.600 --> 1:39:38.040
<v Speaker 1>did have super long hair. They did, But I mean

1:39:38.160 --> 1:39:40.879
<v Speaker 1>maybe because in the Welcome to the Jungle video actual

1:39:40.920 --> 1:39:43.000
<v Speaker 1>teases his hair up, you know, with the AquaNet back

1:39:43.040 --> 1:39:46.160
<v Speaker 1>in the day, huh would you have done that if

1:39:46.200 --> 1:39:49.439
<v Speaker 1>you were I mean, I would those guys. I feel

1:39:49.479 --> 1:39:51.920
<v Speaker 1>like there was nothing quite like being a true rock

1:39:52.040 --> 1:39:55.760
<v Speaker 1>star in the eighties and nineties for just you know,

1:39:56.280 --> 1:39:58.280
<v Speaker 1>having a lot of fun and doing whatever the heck

1:39:58.360 --> 1:40:01.680
<v Speaker 1>you want. Just to picture you're you're swoop with AquaNet

1:40:01.800 --> 1:40:04.360
<v Speaker 1>and just teased out is I don't even know what

1:40:04.439 --> 1:40:06.560
<v Speaker 1>AquaNet is, but o, it's like hairspray. It's just like

1:40:06.600 --> 1:40:09.639
<v Speaker 1>crazy hair spray. Yeah, I mean the swoop. The swoop really,

1:40:09.680 --> 1:40:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean basically if I was in a band, it

1:40:11.080 --> 1:40:14.040
<v Speaker 1>would be a hair band because of the swoop by definition. Sure,

1:40:14.200 --> 1:40:15.880
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's one way to that's one way to

1:40:15.960 --> 1:40:18.320
<v Speaker 1>keep keep things rolling along. Here. We got a little

1:40:18.360 --> 1:40:19.880
<v Speaker 1>more roll call coming your way. And then you're gonna

1:40:19.880 --> 1:40:23.240

1:42:20.200 --> 1:42:21.920
<v Speaker 1>best thing you can do to help us keep doing

1:42:30.880 --> 1:42:34.080
<v Speaker 1>recommend a book to you called Day of War, which

1:42:34.160 --> 1:42:36.200
<v Speaker 1>is the first of the Line of War series by

1:42:36.280 --> 1:42:41.439
<v Speaker 1>Cliff Graham, who's a veteran and primarily writes biblical war fiction.

1:42:41.720 --> 1:42:45.200
<v Speaker 1>These books are fantastic. I think you dig them. Huh,

1:42:46.720 --> 1:42:49.679

1:42:49.720 --> 1:42:52.240
<v Speaker 1>was see it out with another woman, so the window

1:42:52.280 --> 1:42:53.560

1:43:00.520 --> 1:43:03.760
<v Speaker 1>right tax bracket for miss Beale, but it is nonetheless,

1:43:05.080 --> 1:43:07.320
<v Speaker 1>it is appreciated that you guys. It's like I got

1:43:07.360 --> 1:43:09.479
<v Speaker 1>It's like I've got thousands and thousands of Team Buck

1:43:09.520 --> 1:43:11.400
<v Speaker 1>wingman all across the country. You're just looking out for,

1:43:12.160 --> 1:43:14.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, because they want, you know, producer Marks getting married.

1:43:14.479 --> 1:43:16.840
<v Speaker 1>I know people want it's time for it's time for

1:43:17.120 --> 1:43:19.680
<v Speaker 1>host Buck to get married, and you know, make a

1:43:19.720 --> 1:43:22.920
<v Speaker 1>little mini bucks or buckets or whatever too. I don't

1:43:22.920 --> 1:43:24.760
<v Speaker 1>think we're gonna called them bucket. That wouldn't work. To

1:43:25.120 --> 1:43:29.880
<v Speaker 1>buckle down, to buckle down, that's right. Um let us

1:43:29.960 --> 1:43:34.439
<v Speaker 1>see here. Omer all right, it's hey Buck, longtime fan.

1:43:34.560 --> 1:43:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Love the show Shieldsy. Today you played a clip of

1:43:38.479 --> 1:43:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris talking about her pharma plan. Believe it or not,

1:43:41.840 --> 1:43:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I actually think there's a good idea presented somewhere in

1:43:44.200 --> 1:43:46.840
<v Speaker 1>her ramblings. Not the part about stripping companies of their

1:43:46.880 --> 1:43:49.840
<v Speaker 1>patents that was obviously blunkers. It was the part about

1:43:49.840 --> 1:43:52.080
<v Speaker 1>setting a cap on drug prices that is based on

1:43:52.240 --> 1:43:55.000
<v Speaker 1>global averages that has merit, though not for the reasons

1:43:55.600 --> 1:43:59.439
<v Speaker 1>Kamala thinks it does. I'm a Canadian citizen who's working

1:43:59.439 --> 1:44:02.000
<v Speaker 1>in the public hell care industry and clinical research, and

1:44:02.080 --> 1:44:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I have to tell you it's true that our drug

1:44:03.920 --> 1:44:06.320
<v Speaker 1>prices are much lower than yours are in the States,

1:44:06.680 --> 1:44:10.360
<v Speaker 1>but only because we cheat health. Canada puts a cap

1:44:10.479 --> 1:44:14.080
<v Speaker 1>on drug prices that is significantly lower than the free

1:44:14.760 --> 1:44:18.080
<v Speaker 1>market value of all medication. Some drug companies don't bother

1:44:18.160 --> 1:44:20.080
<v Speaker 1>any of the Canadian market because of this cap, but

1:44:20.280 --> 1:44:23.080
<v Speaker 1>most capitulate. The reason they put up with this is

1:44:23.120 --> 1:44:25.240
<v Speaker 1>that the revenue they are making from the high the

1:44:25.520 --> 1:44:28.960
<v Speaker 1>high free market drug prices in the US more than

1:44:29.040 --> 1:44:32.719
<v Speaker 1>covers the cost of R and D and regulatory adherents. Therefore,

1:44:32.840 --> 1:44:35.560
<v Speaker 1>drug companies are still able to turn a profit in

1:44:35.680 --> 1:44:38.519
<v Speaker 1>Canada on razor thin margins. It's in this way the

1:44:38.680 --> 1:44:41.679
<v Speaker 1>US subsidizes drug prices for Canada and really the rest

1:44:41.720 --> 1:44:45.479
<v Speaker 1>of the world. Yeah, I've heard about this. Kama thinks

1:44:45.520 --> 1:44:47.600
<v Speaker 1>likely putting a peg on drug prices based on the

1:44:47.640 --> 1:44:49.680
<v Speaker 1>world average will bring US drug prices down to level

1:44:49.720 --> 1:44:52.120
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the world. Chet is wrong. The drug

1:44:52.320 --> 1:44:55.880
<v Speaker 1>industry is too capital intensive and high risk to exist

1:44:56.000 --> 1:44:59.680
<v Speaker 1>on such small margins worldwide. Again, the only reason other

1:44:59.720 --> 1:45:01.320
<v Speaker 1>con he's get away with it is they're leading on

1:45:01.400 --> 1:45:05.040
<v Speaker 1>the high markups US citizens pay for their drugs. If

1:45:05.080 --> 1:45:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the US were to stop paying those high prices, the

1:45:07.280 --> 1:45:10.759
<v Speaker 1>whole industry would collapse and all likelihood what this policy

1:45:10.800 --> 1:45:12.560
<v Speaker 1>would do is forced the drug companies to raise the

1:45:12.600 --> 1:45:15.840
<v Speaker 1>cost of medication globally to ensure the high rates of

1:45:15.880 --> 1:45:20.439
<v Speaker 1>the US market remain intact. Wow, this is fascinating. He's

1:45:20.479 --> 1:45:21.560
<v Speaker 1>got more and more and more here. I hope that

1:45:21.640 --> 1:45:22.680
<v Speaker 1>was co here, And let me know if you need

1:45:22.720 --> 1:45:24.360
<v Speaker 1>me to clarify anything. Thanks for hearing me. I'll keep

1:45:24.439 --> 1:45:27.040
<v Speaker 1>up the good work. Ohmer, Ohmer, that's fascinating man. Thank

1:45:27.040 --> 1:45:29.639
<v Speaker 1>you so much somebody. Really, I've heard this argument before,

1:45:29.680 --> 1:45:31.320
<v Speaker 1>but it sounds like you're somebody who works in the

1:45:31.479 --> 1:45:36.000
<v Speaker 1>industry and has a particular expertise and background in it.

1:45:37.960 --> 1:45:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Now Here we have to Bill who writes Buck? Is

1:45:45.240 --> 1:45:47.000
<v Speaker 1>this true? And I can't see what you're asking me

1:45:47.040 --> 1:45:50.360
<v Speaker 1>other than that, So the answers I don't know, Daniel

1:45:51.080 --> 1:45:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Buck love the impressions, even though Warden sounds a bit

1:45:54.400 --> 1:45:59.479
<v Speaker 1>like Flute from hr puffin Stuff, and your Betto sounds

1:45:59.520 --> 1:46:02.439
<v Speaker 1>totally like Kyle from the Amanda Show. So glad I

1:46:02.479 --> 1:46:04.120
<v Speaker 1>found your show. Wouldn't miss it for the world. Dan

1:46:04.240 --> 1:46:08.160
<v Speaker 1>in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Thank you, Dan, Wow, Elisabeth Warren. Sure

1:46:08.200 --> 1:46:11.040

<v Speaker 1>could be paying for healthcare that's gonna be free for all.

1:46:16.040 --> 1:46:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Have you? And then you've got what was her? Who's

1:46:19.840 --> 1:46:23.639
<v Speaker 1>your betto? I just I think Betto sounds like better.

1:46:24.240 --> 1:46:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't think anyone else really sounds

1:46:26.080 --> 1:46:28.800
<v Speaker 1>like better. I kind of miss him being in the

1:46:28.880 --> 1:46:30.760
<v Speaker 1>race because we had so much fun with Betto when

1:46:30.800 --> 1:46:33.120
<v Speaker 1>he was in. Do you remember that show Duckman. It

1:46:33.280 --> 1:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>was a cartoon on USA with a Georgie's Alexander. There

1:46:38.120 --> 1:46:40.160
<v Speaker 1>was a good character on their named Ajax that you

1:46:40.200 --> 1:46:42.280
<v Speaker 1>sound like. Oh really, so if anyone gets that reference,
