1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,319
Speaker 1: Sandwich Gate in Washington, d C. Lands a DC man

2
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: in quite the legal pickle tuity did there with the

3
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: punit thanks producer Glenn On. That a spicy divorce inside

4
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,799
Speaker 1: of a former first family. The details around how that

5
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: is getting played out in the public eye are really interesting.

6
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: And white liberals yet again trying to defend the honor

7
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: of black people at Washington DC who are like, no,

8
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: this is actually great, please stop fighting for us. All

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: that and more coming up on this episode of Turning

10
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: Point Tonight. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much

Speaker 1: America's cultural comeback. This is Turning Point Tonight.

Speaker 1: tpusa dot com. Before we get to any of those

21
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: stories in our fantastic panel, I gotta get to this

22
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: because this is actually really interesting. My internal libertarian bug

23
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: that I kind of try to crush as much as

24
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: I can, generally speaking, kind of comes out in these

25
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: types of stories. There is a proposal in the state

26
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: of New York, issued by the Mayor of New York,

27
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: Eric Adams, that says, Hey, we want to be able

28
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: to have doctors commit drug addicts to facilities to get

29
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: help rather than being alone on our streets. Now, on

30
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: its face, that sounds great. The good idea says, well,

31
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: let's get the people who are on drugs off the streets,

32
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: away from terrorizing the public and put them in places

33
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: that they can actually get some help. However, my internal

34
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: libertarian bug says, Okay, well, that's a slippery slope. What

35
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: if I get a doctor that says, or what if

36
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: I get a I don't know, a former friend somebody

37
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: I've got beef with that tells a doctor, Hey, Joe,

38
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: Bob's nuts and I'm you know, I'm kind of an

39
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: eccentric individual, especially out in public. And the doctor says, yeah,

40
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: that guy's nuts. Throw him in a mental facility. Now,

41
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: I get that that's kind of a hyperbolic scenario, but

42
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. It kind of scares me a little bit.

43
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: I would love to get the thoughts from our fantastic panel.

44
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Adrian Gray is the host of Real America's Pop Culture

45
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: and Haley Karenia. I think I always like fumble over

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: how to pronounce that, Hailey Karnia, Oh, most of the

47
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: Nightly Scroll guys, thanks for joining us. Really appreciate you

48
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: taking the time, Thanks for having us. Uh, Haley, I

49
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: want to start with you here. This is this is

50
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: kind of like a just your your high level, thirty

51
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: thousand foot view. Are we comfortable with the government saying nope,

52
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,399
Speaker 1: you're not in control of your faculties. Therefore we decide

53
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: you're going to go to facility at the same time, Well,

54
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: that gets to homeless drug addicts off the streets, hopefully, rely,

55
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: that's the goal. How comfortable are you with this overall?

56
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: And you can obviously in the variables of yeah, the

57
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 1: big cities are overrun with crazy people.

58
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally understand the argument for the slippery slope.

59
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 3: I think that does set a very scary, dangerous present. However,

60
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: as someone who lived in New York City for almost

61
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 3: a decade, I can tell you we need to do

62
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 3: something about the homeless crisis. It is a problem. People

63
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 3: are tripping over homeless people. They're on their stoops and

64
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 3: even the liberals they might not admit it, but no

65
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 3: one wants to live amongst homeless people. And I did

66
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 3: look into this, and it's interesting because what Eric Adams

67
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: is proposing is people before this, people could only be

68
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 3: committed against their will if they showed a substantial risk

69
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: to physically harm themselves or others. Isn't it like obvious

70
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 3: that if you're abusing drugs you're posing.

71
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: A risk to yourself. I just don't understand, so, like what's.

72
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: The difference that you know, that's a good point. You know,

73
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: the skeptic might even take a little bit further and say, hey,

74
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: if you eat too many big macs, you're posing a

75
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: risk to your own health. That this is where this

76
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: is my This is my like as kind of like

77
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: a slippery, slippery slope and kind of a difficult thing

78
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: to handle. Adrian, though, have some of these big blue

79
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: cities gotten so bad that you know, it's just this

80
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: is just the reality of it. You have to be

81
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 1: able to do something with these people, and therefore, you know,

82
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: you got to take the risk of the slippery slope

83
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: here and just commit these people to mental institutions.

84
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a few things that move me here, Joe Bob,

85
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 5: because I live in d C.

86
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 6: So just the runner up here.

87
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 5: You know, we're trying to make DC safe again, but

88
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 5: we have a lot of the same issues. And I

89
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 5: travel to New York frequently as well, and I've seen

90
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 5: this firsthand. I think what I honestly think what he's

91
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 5: trying to do is sort of take an ice approach here.

92
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 5: I think he saw like, oh, you know, people are

93
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 5: signing on board to basically being able to have a

94
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 5: proactive approach to get individuals out, to get individuals safe

95
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 5: to do that.

96
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 4: But however, you know, libertarian are not.

97
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 5: I do think that we deep figure out what a

98
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 5: balance is because there is fully a spectrum. I think

99
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 5: we see the zombies within the street where their bodies

100
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 5: are like hanging to the ground, and then we see

101
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 5: other people that just might be out for a good

102
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 5: time a little too late at night. So I think

103
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 5: it can be a slippery slope when we talk about

104
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 5: actually the medical industry in general and do they always

105
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 5: have our best interests in mind. Listen, we've been going

106
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 5: down the road of skepticism with our health system, so.

107
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 4: A lot to balance.

108
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 6: I definitely don't have an answer here, but it's very.

109
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: Interesting, you know, Adrian, Unfortunately your mistake in Washington, d

110
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: C is very very safe. All of the news channels

111
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: say so, and there's nothing to be done to make

112
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 1: it more safer, because again, it is a beacon of

113
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: safety across the country. Now, this next story is in

114
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: line with the whole Washington DC thing, but it's more

115
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: of like an interpersonal how you deal with difficulty and stress.

116
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: I guess, Hayley, we all have seen the video and

117
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: I think we can play it here while we're talking

118
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: over because the audio is kind of trash. But Sandwich Gate,

119
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: there's a guy here yelling at a at a I

120
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: don't know if it's an FBI, a federal agent of

121
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: some kind. Uh, and then ultimately gets so mad he

122
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: throws a sandwich and oh no, you just did a

123
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: felony assault crime. I think, what is fascinating about this?

124
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 1: And we'll get into the DC specifics in the next

125
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: thing I want to talk about, but specifically here, what

126
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: is going through the mind of somebody that can't hold

127
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: their emotions inside and has to lash out. How has

128
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,119
Speaker 1: this infected so many people? And you know, his big

129
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 1: task to answer here, how do we figure out how

130
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: to get people to bare least regulate their emotions when

131
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 1: they feel very passionately about something, Because that's not a

132
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: bad thing, it's but acting out on it. It clearly is.

133
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 3: By by plastering this video out on the news everywhere

134
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: you see it, this should deter people from doing this.

135
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 3: His form is horrible, He's putting his whole back into it.

136
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 3: I'm getting the just watching it. I mean, this is very,

137
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: very embarrassing, so I would hope. I mean, now, this

138
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: man has lost his job at the DOJ, according to

139
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 3: Attorney General Pambondi, But I think naming and shaming these

140
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 3: people is the way to go.

141
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's another big part of it, Adrian. This

142
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: guy worked for the Department of Justice, was a trial

143
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: attorney there, and has the mental capacity, or at least

144
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: lacks the mental capacity to be able to restrain himself.

145
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: What do you do with the society where the people

146
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: that are kind of at the upper ends of the

147
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: rung here have no ability to control their emotions.

148
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 6: I'm gonna try to deliver this without laughing.

149
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 5: But someone who works at the DOJ, Okay, the affiliation

150
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 5: with Subway. I still have an issue with so not

151
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 5: only did he hit somebody with a subway sandwich.

152
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 6: In general and get an injury.

153
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 5: We hit somebody with a subway sandwich. And let us

154
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 5: not forget Jared. Let's not forget the crimes against Jared.

155
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 4: Okay, so to me.

156
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 6: Fully criminal fully the whole thing criminal.

157
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: I don't know how.

158
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 5: Many years, but a lot of years ahead because it

159
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 5: just feels like a bigger issue when you take a

160
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 5: brand like Subway what went on with Jared, and you decide.

161
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 4: That's the choice, that's the brand, that's the choice. So

162
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 4: big is you there?

163
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: I have a problem with it considering the fact that

164
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: Subway was involved. I just really hope one of the

165
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: officers that were chasing him down said this is Maga

166
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: country and in that whole process. I don't know if

167
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: you remember the Jesse smo Lett whole hoax thing, but

168
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: speaking of this Washington d C problem, I thought this

169
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: was fascinating from a polling statistic, and I also thought

170
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: it was really interesting that morning Joe on MSDNC sorry

171
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: MSBNBC lefty news outlet Lefty Show was actually bringing the

172
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: statistic up ninety one percent of Black women in DC

173
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: think crime is too high. Now. You saw protests around

174
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: the around the around the district last night with people like, oh,

175
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: we don't need you here, this is an infringement or whatever,

176
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: while the community that lives in DC, especially the black

177
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: community lives in there, says, no, it is too high. Hayley,

178
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: why is it that so many white Libs have savior

179
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: complex of like, we need to help the downtrodden, and

180
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: the people that would actually benefit from the help, we're like, no, no, no,

181
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: this is great. Crime is too high, Please stop helping us.

182
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, the tds, deranged white liberal karens are the problem here.

183
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 3: It's interesting because I saw an NPR reporter go to

184
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 3: DC and conduct some man on the street interviews and

185
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 3: he went to this gentrified safe area of DC and

186
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 3: old a bunch of people, and of course the white

187
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 3: liberals say Trump is horrible, we hate these moves. Then

188
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 3: he goes to an actual high crime area of DC

189
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 3: that is predominantly minority, and he's asking people there, Hey,

190
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 3: do you welcome this move by President Trump?

191
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 4: Do you welcome the of National Guard troops? And they said.

192
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 3: Yes, not only that they're so sick and tired of

193
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 3: the crime they haven't even reported it. They're sick and

194
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 3: tired of reporting it because nothing gets done. So these

195
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: soft on crime policies are making cities not safe and

196
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 3: they're starting.

197
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 4: To learn the hard way.

198
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, Adrian. Since President Trump has announced, hey, we're gonna

199
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: take over the policing here in Washington, d C. Which

200
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: again is the federal government's right. They have the jurisdiction

201
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: over DC. It's kind of in the constitution. I'm not

202
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: sure if a bunch of libs know that. Since then,

203
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: they've nabbed about one hundred suspects. Now again, who knows

204
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: if these people are actually Inner Center guilty, but they've

205
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: been arrested in an attempt to try and clean up

206
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: the streets of DC. Do you think that this will

207
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 1: send a message to any of the other Blue states.

208
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: Let's just say this, play this out over the next

209
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, couple of months. If Trump is able

210
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: to turn DC around from a crime riddled hell hole

211
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 1: to a relatively nice city to be in, do you

212
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: think that will get replicated across the country in Blue

213
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: cities who realize, hey, this actually is doable.

214
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 6: Absolutely.

215
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 5: I think let's clean up DC first and have everybody

216
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 5: else follow he's got to prove it. I think he's

217
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 5: on the way. Also, by the way, as someone who

218
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 5: again lives.

219
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 2: In d C.

220
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 5: Trump has also not only made it cleaner, but he's

221
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 5: also again he's a real estate guy.

222
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 6: I get it.

223
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 4: But he's put fresh sod everywhere.

224
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 5: I've seen the shift from when Biden's administration was in

225
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 5: everything with dead and muddy and gross for miles around

226
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 5: the Capitol.

227
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 6: And I bring this up because this is the nation's.

228
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 5: Capital where people are to come and see the history

229
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 5: and if it's a gross swampland unintended what like, we

230
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 5: just deserve to have a nice area. And so people

231
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 5: are giving President Trump a lot of flak for making,

232
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 5: you know, aesthetic changes, but wait, why if you go

233
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 5: to any other country where they have like palaces and

234
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 5: everything like that, why do we have to be crazy

235
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 5: and like look so ghetto and unsafe and everything like that.

236
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 5: So I love what he's doing as somebody who is

237
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 5: seeing the changes in real time.

238
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 4: US are also loving it.

239
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 5: But I do think to wrap it up, it's going

240
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 5: to send a message and we need to do that

241
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 5: because New York has headed down a terrible path.

242
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: So again, unfortunately Adrian, you are mistake. In Washington, d

243
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: C is totally safe, and so is New York. According

244
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: to a bunch of the live media, Adrian and Halo

245
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: be back right after the break to discuss a spicy

246
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: divorce in the former First Family. It is apropos of nothing,

247
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: but it's just kind of fun to talk about. Also,

248
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: you can email the show anytime you want TPT ATPUSA

251
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 7: Got to admire what you've been able to do, not

252
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 7: to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses.

253
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 8: At Turning Point USA. We've spent thirteen years building the machine,

258
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:10,560

00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Turning Point Tonight. We're together. We are

260
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: charting the course of America's cultural comeback. Remember, you can

Speaker 1: We love seeing your emails, whether you grew with everything

263
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: we say or you're wrong. But with that further Ado,

264
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: let's check in with turning Points. White House correspondent Monica

265
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: Page at the White House, Monica, a big, big day.

266
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: It's like the day before the super Bowl, you know,

267
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: obviously not really, but huge summit coming up in Alaska

268
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: between President Trump President Putin. Everybody's kind of talking about it.

269
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: What is your insight on the ground there at the

270
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 1: White House? I saw that there's apparently going to be

271
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: a press guy at least right as of right now.

272
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a press conference afterward, which is holy cow,

273
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: that's some high stakes.

274
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, high stakes, very highly anticipated. I mean, you can't

275
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: talk about this story enough because if President Trump can

276
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: pull off this peace steal, it could be one of

277
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 2: the most monumental things that he does in this term,

278
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 2: in this administration of this year. Essentially, so, the President's

279
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 2: going to be flying out to Alaska tomorrow morning six

280
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: a m. Eastern time, approximately very early, immediately meeting with

281
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: Russian President Vladimir Putin, and essentially they want to meet

282
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: eye to eye. The President wants to get a feel

283
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: for what Putin wants to do. He wants to get

284
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 2: a feel for the mood on the ground, his attitude,

285
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 2: and just ultimately what it's going to take to put

286
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 2: an end to this war. This has been going on

287
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: for quite some time, and President Trump has been very

288
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 2: vocal about ending it and has teased that if Russia

289
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: doesn't come up with a solution, if they don't come

290
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 2: up with a plan, and there could be some very

291
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: serious consequences. What that would look like, We're not exactly

292
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: too sure. That could be economic sanctions, that could be uh,

293
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to trade with you in

294
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: the future, or we're going to put place more tariffs

295
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: on India. They're trade a Russia's trading partner, so we

296
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: could look very different. Now, look, we have a lot

297
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 2: of options here. So essentially, after this meeting, like you said,

298
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: we can definitely expect a press conference between the two,

299
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: which would be very interesting. I really can't wait to

300
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 2: tune into that. And then immediately after when he's on

301
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: his flight back to d C or to Virginia wherever

302
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 2: he may go. After that, he's going to call Zelenski,

303
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 2: Ukrainian President Zelenski and then speak with the EU leaders

304
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 2: as well. He spoke with the EU leaders earlier this

305
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 2: week as well, kind of teasing ahead maybe what he

306
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: wants to discuss, But of course that's very under reps

307
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: to us here in the press. But this is going

308
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: to be very high stakes, super highly anticipated.

309
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to get you. I don't

310
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: know if you know specifically about this, but is there

311
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: any way you could speak to the importance why President

312
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: Trump wants to meet person to person in person as

313
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: opposed to like a phone call or a video conference,

314
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: which is obviously, you know, easier to do. You don't

315
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: have to travel to a different place.

316
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: Oh sure, it's so much easier to speak over the

317
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 2: phone or on video call. But of course, when you

318
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 2: actually see the person face to face, I think you

319
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: can get a better sense of how the person wants

320
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 2: to make a deal with you. And this meeting essentially

321
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: is going to say up for the second.

322
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 10: Meeting as well.

323
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 2: So this meeting is just to kind of get a

324
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: feel it's the second meeting that's going to be even

325
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 2: more important than this one. If there will even be

326
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 2: a second meeting. The President said himself that there could

327
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: be a twenty five percent chance that the second meeting

328
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: doesn't even come based on Putin's actions or his whole demeanor.

329
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 2: So we're definitely going to be keeping a close eye

330
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: on it and.

331
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: How great it is to have a president that's so

332
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: candidate like this might not work. And you know, again,

333
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: obviously that's not what anybody wants to hear. But the

334
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: guy's realistic and he's opening about it, which is, which

335
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: is it's an interesting, interesting perspective into how the mind

336
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: of the most powerful person on the planet works. You know,

337
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: really quickly, there's some social Security news you want to

338
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: tell us about it.

339
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 2: Yet, ninetieth anniversary of Social Security today, the President announcing

340
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: some major overhauls to the Social Security Department and essentially

341
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 2: how social Security has been operating. Of course, you know,

342
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 2: thanks to the one big, beautiful Bill, there's no tax

343
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: on Social Security to those ages sixty five and up.

344
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 2: And some of the major reformations that the President is

345
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: pushing is he's trying to reduce field off his way

346
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: times by about thirty percent, reducing fallweight times by about

347
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 2: eighty percent, in doubling those calls twenty four to seven,

348
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 2: online access to your Social Security account, and they basically

349
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 2: doge social Security. They've kicked two hundred and seventy five

350
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 2: thousand illegal aliens off.

351
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: Social Security in order to make it just.

352
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 2: Better for Americans for Americans only, which is huge, so

353
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 2: very big day.

354
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: Nonetheless, I think the Libs are going to be upset

355
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 1: that they don't get to listen to that hold weight

356
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: time music on the phone with Social Security. They're just

357
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: going to be very furious about that. Of course, with

358
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: these new upgrades, Monica pays turning points White House Correspondent,

359
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: thanks for taking the time, Thanks you, guys, Thank you.

360
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: With AI becoming so prevalent and prominent, so many people

361
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: are worried about losing their jobs to AI, and the

362
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: sad reality is AI is going to make a huge

363
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,239
Speaker 1: difference in the job market. Some people are already seeing that,

364
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: most specifically recent college men who've graduated from colleges with

365
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: degrees in like computer science or computer engineering or all

366
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 1: of these things, that AI is making it more difficult

367
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: to find jobs with Let's bring our panel back here

368
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: because I'm super curious about their thoughts on this, Haley

369
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: Karnia and Adrian Gray. Adrian, so from this, like, obviously

370
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: it's difficult to find a job here if you've if

371
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: you've graduated from college, You've got a degree in something

372
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: that AI is dominating. What do young men do who

373
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: are struggling to find jobs in kind of these soft

374
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 1: fields or the software fields, or like the developer sorry,

375
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: the internet world, the software development world. Do they kind

376
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: of transition into other careers? And then what does that

377
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: say about college going forward?

378
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think there's.

379
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,959
Speaker 6: A This is a nuanced conversation. There's a lot of

380
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 6: points to be made, but.

381
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 4: I think they definitely.

382
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 5: I think again, as we think about the American dream,

383
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 5: and maybe we're not getting the job that we signed

384
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 5: up for.

385
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 6: As somebody who majored in studio arts, guess.

386
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: What I'm in.

387
00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 6: I'm in conservative media, honey.

388
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 5: So I did not get what I went.

389
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 4: To school for.

390
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 5: And so the same for them is you have to

391
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 5: get a little bit creative, okay. And so the American

392
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 5: Juriam says, well, why don't you try to come up

393
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 5: with something that can solve a problem. Okay, it can

394
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 5: be as simple as like a landscaping business. But people

395
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 5: are more so wanting to invest in people, not these

396
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 5: big businesses. So why not have a creative take on

397
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 5: doing that.

398
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 4: Another thing with AI that.

399
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 6: Is interesting to me is I'm more concerned about.

400
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 5: I thought, Okay, so if AI is here and it

401
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 5: can do all the things that you would say naturally

402
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 5: successful people were able.

403
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 6: To do because we have a computer basically giving us the.

404
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 5: Guidebook, I still believe people need to have that talent.

405
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 5: So the process is still going to be you have

406
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 5: to be the full package. Whether you can get that

407
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 5: too from A to B, you still have to be

408
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 5: the vessel, and the vessel still has to have talent.

409
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 5: So when it comes to this day and age, when

410
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 5: it comes to having alternative media, being an influencer online

411
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 5: like that, AI isn't going to be able to replace

412
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 5: those types of jobs.

413
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 6: Now. I know for conservative men they're not interested in

414
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 6: being influencers.

415
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 5: However, I think it's just a time to get creative

416
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 5: and instead of sitting in the basement whining to their mom,

417
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 5: let's go out and try to do something. And I

418
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 5: think that's why women are more successful.

419
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: I may take a little bit of an issue about

420
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: men not wanting to be conservative influencers as a male

421
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: conservative influencer ish myself, but Haley, what is this kind

422
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 1: of So as far as like the dating pool goes,

423
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: like women have kind of always had this stigma of

424
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: like higher earned men, Like you want a high value man,

425
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: and usually that means going to college. So if a

426
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: guy didn't go to college, he would kind of lower

427
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: his stature on the dating market. Do you think in

428
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: the modern age, where the hard skills being a plumber

429
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 1: and an electrician contractor of some kind tends to be more

430
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: guaranteed of a job, does that kind of stigma need

431
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: to go away? What are your thoughts there, Yeah.

432
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 3: The stigma definitely needs to go away, because the the

433
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 3: interesting part about this study is that women with bachelor

434
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 3: degrees are finding jobs men with bachelor degrees aren't. I

435
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 3: don't know if that's because women are DEI hires or whatever,

436
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 3: but I think we're doing a disservice by telling young

437
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 3: people in general that you have to go to college

438
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 3: to be successful. You can just go out of school

439
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 3: and get a job in a trade and start making

440
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 3: forty grand, sixty grand, eighty grand right out of high school.

441
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 3: And I think you're better off doing that. You're going

442
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 3: to find a girlfriend if you're making eighty k when

443
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 3: you're twenty years old, rather than starting in the negatives

444
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 3: with all this college loan debt.

445
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be really interesting to see how this kind

446
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: of shapes the the I guess the family structure really ultimately,

447
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: when you really get down to it, kind of the

448
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: most important thing you've got out there. But speaking of

449
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: the family, they're just viewers. I recognize there's really no

450
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: political benefit to this story. I just think it's really interesting,

451
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: especially considering how high profile this family is. Ashley Biden

452
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: filed for a divorce worse from her husband of thirteen

453
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: years and again, nobody necessarily wants to see divorces, but

454
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: the way that it's being played out in the media,

455
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: I think is really freaking fascinating. Hayley, she posted on

456
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: Instagram a picture of what is allegedly her husband and

457
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: here her husband's girlfriend, and said, my husband holding hands

458
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: with his girlfriend, attached to a notorious bag song called

459
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 1: another I guess, displaying the affair to the world. What

460
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: this is My real question? Why are the Bidens continuing

461
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: to be in the public eye to the level that

462
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 1: they are. Hunter doesn't have to go do interviews, Ashley

463
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: Biden doesn't have to publicize her fallout with her husband.

464
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: What What is it in the mindset of a person

465
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: like that that says the public needs to know everything

466
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: I'm doing and everything I think.

467
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 3: Honestly, Joe Bob, I hate that you're making me side

468
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 3: with a member of the Biden family. I am so

469
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 3: anti cheating. I am so anti infidelity. I say, as

470
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 3: petty as this is, go for it. Name and Shane

471
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 3: your cheating husband. He deserves it.

472
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: Okay, well no, but I agree on that front. But

473
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 1: I just I don't know, if you're a public figure,

474
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: it just seems to me, like so just like, I

475
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,360
Speaker 1: don't know, should the American people be subjected to their

476
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: former first family kind of going through a bunch of

477
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: this nonsense in the public. I don't know that I

478
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: agree with you on the cheating point. Adrian, What are

479
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: your thoughts on this just kind of overall as a whole,

480
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: how they're handling it, what the fallout is going to

481
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: look like on the on the Biden family image, so

482
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: to speak.

483
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 5: I think I think the Biden family obviously is a circus.

484
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 5: And here's the thing. I looked at the photo. The

485
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 5: woman kind of looks like a prostitute. Okay, so doesn't

486
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 5: really look like a girlfriend. I know we're saying girlfriend,

487
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 5: but looks.

488
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 4: Like pros if they were me. Look, I'm gonna be honest.

489
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 5: I am an Aquarius, a Republican, a blode and I'm

490
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 5: like that would I would drag her, I would drag

491
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 5: the situation. You're not going to do that to me. Listen,

492
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 5: you don't want to be on the other side of that,

493
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 5: So I understand it.

494
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 4: I also I also just think again.

495
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 5: It's hard to take this story seriously. It really is,

496
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 5: and I don't want anyone to. You know, I'm not

497
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 5: taking it lightly, the cheating or anything like that, but

498
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 5: it's ridiculous.

499
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 6: I think she's just campaigning on that. Her family's already a.

500
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 5: Mess, so why not just add fuel to the fire

501
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 5: and get a conversation going.

502
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 4: But ultimately, this is a very Carrie Underwood.

503
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 5: You know, like slash Attires you know, yeh stra typical story.

504
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: No, I get I this is this is I'm glad

505
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: I brought this up because my mind has been changed.

506
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 1: I kind of think like, oh, yeah, don't uh, don't

507
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: do it. But I've got two female uh panels here

508
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: They're like, oh yeah, just go go nuts and interesting.

509
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: This is this. I'm glad we talked about this because

510
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,120
Speaker 1: I feel like I have a mind change here. Yeah,

511
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: we'll all see together how this plays out. And you know,

512
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: I I was gonna say I hope for the best

513
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: for everyone involved, but I guess I just a care

Speaker 9: Gov Sucks Cooler claim yours.

531
00:25:49,760 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 11: Today, I saw somebody on Instagram. They were showing the

532
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 11: top influencers and how much they allegedly made last year.

533
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 11: Now they had you down for thirteen point six million

534
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 11: for last year.

535
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 10: Is that accurate?

536
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 7: Man?

537
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 10: You have to ask my account. I don't know. I mean,

538
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 10: it's it's crazy what people can make. I will say, like.

539
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 11: I want to nerd out a little inside Baseball. I

540
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 11: really want to nerd out on this because this fascinates me.

541
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 11: I am not an influencer. I mean I am like

542
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 11: backdoor influencer, Like somehow I ended up here because that's

543
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 11: where everything's you are. But I'm a media but I'm

544
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 11: a media person. So I when I first started working

545
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 11: at Turning Point, they were like, oh yeah, let's work

546
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 11: together as an influencer. I didn't even know what that

547
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 11: was because I had just done radio. So I kind

548
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 11: of fell into this. But this you've built this world.

549
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 11: Basically we're all on your back. So I have so

550
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 11: many questions and I think some people. I think some

551
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 11: people will be like, well, this isn't relatable, and I'm like,

552
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 11: who cares, I don't care what you think. I think

553
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 11: this is interesting. So here's what I want to know.

554
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 10: I wish I could be more like Alexi. Are you

555
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 10: an eight on the Enneagram?

556
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 11: I am a four really, which nobody believes.

557
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 10: I see that.

558
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 11: I think likes everything dark and sad is beautiful, Like

559
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 11: all that are in my place is really dark and weird.

560
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 10: You're like so individual, like nobody understands you.

561
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 11: Yes, yeah, okay, well nobody understands me or nobody likes me.

562
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 11: But also I have to be unique and different. That's

563
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 11: like it's a weird contradictory.

564
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 10: Yeah, I love it, and go out, go ahead, Okay,

565
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 10: So what.

566
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 11: Is generating the most income for you at this moment

567
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 11: Instagram wise? Is it post stories or reels?

568
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 10: All of them?

569
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,199
Speaker 12: But I would say that stories have always taken a

570
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 12: front seat in my business just because they are like

571
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 12: the easiest way for me to connect with my audience,

572
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 12: and I can create them so fast and frequently.

573
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 10: So I created what I started.

574
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 12: When Instagram stories came out, I decided, Okay, this is

575
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 12: gonna be like my little reality TV show, and so

576
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 12: I would wake up with my audience, go through my

577
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 12: entire day with them. I mean, some days I'm having

578
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 12: so many dots on my stories, like this is before

579
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 12: they recently changed the algorithm, so they like used to

580
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 12: get a ton more story views and so but it's

581
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 12: crazy because I was posting every day and then they

582
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 12: would just all disappear, and which was kind of a bummer.

583
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 12: But at the same time, it kind of created this

584
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 12: like novelty to like coming back in this consistency and

585
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 12: this relationship with my audience. So some people think it's dumb.

586
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 12: I was like, well, this is great because people just

587
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 12: keep coming back. But I like love Instagram stories.

588
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 10: I love them.

589
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 11: When you are posting on there, I mean, are you

590
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 11: the one actually scheduling posting all this or do you

591
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 11: have a team that's like helping you. Obviously you're making

592
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 11: the content, but then are they deciding when things are

593
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 11: posted when they're coming out?

594
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 10: No, I post everything you do it.

595
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 13: I post unless there's like I'm like, hey, can somebody

596
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 13: throw up the slide for me?

597
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 10: Yeah?

598
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 12: I post all my own Instagram stories, my reels. We

599
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 12: can schedule those out someone They help me schedule those out,

600
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 12: which is super easy. But no, I'm I'm the one

601
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 12: on the phone. I always just say I'm just a

602
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 12: crazy mom with an iPhone.

603
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 11: Do you read your messages?

604
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 12: Depends on the state of my mental health, Like right now,

605
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 12: I'm in a really good place, so I'm in there,

606
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 12: I'm replying to everybody.

607
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 10: If somebody's snarky, I'm snarky right back. Like I have

608
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 10: a lot of fun with it.

609
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 12: And then there's sometimes whenever I'm like, hey, I need

610
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 12: to put my phone down. I need to focus on

611
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 12: my family. This is too much for me. So it

612
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 12: truly just goes in waves.

613
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 11: How far in advance are you planning your posts?

614
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 12: Probably a month in advance. So once again, it kind

615
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 12: of just depends on like the season of life. But

616
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 12: like when I'm really on my game, like we're scheduled

617
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 12: out four to six weeks for reels do giveaways.

618
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 11: When you're doing those giveaways like follow me, follow this person,

619
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 11: follow this person, and then you'll win something, do those

620
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 11: really have a good return for followers or is that

621
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 11: more of a way to like just give something back

622
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 11: to your audience.

623
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 10: Both.

624
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 12: I mean, first of all, people love them, and it's

625
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 12: such a great way to get back to our audience.

626
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 10: Why not.

627
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 12: And then it's a great way to kind of put

628
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 12: your name out there. And I have so many people

629
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 12: that I meet I'm like, how'd you find my channel?

630
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 12: They're like, oh, through a giveaway, And then I just

631
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 12: started following you and I loved you, know, so it's

632
00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 12: just kind of like a way of marketing yourself.

633
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 10: Also like it.

634
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 12: I've met some of the people that have won our

635
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 12: giveaways and it changes their life, So it's amazing.

636
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 11: Is most of your income coming from Divvy or Instagram?

637
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 2: Oh?

638
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 10: Instagram? I don't. We invest everything back into Divvy really everything?

639
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 12: Ever, yeah, since day one, So my business alone, the

640
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 12: Danny Austin brand had supported Divvy from day one, Like,

641
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 12: that's what we used, that's how we invested in the brand,

642
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 12: that's how we launched the brand. And ever since Divvy launched,

643
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 12: I'm like, I want to pour every single dime back

644
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 12: into that brand to help it go because we didn't.

645
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 10: Have any pe any investors to begin with.

646
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 11: For Instagram, what is the biggest check you've gotten for

647
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 11: a brand?

648
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 12: I don't know what mine is, but I remember the

649
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 12: first time that I went to dinner with one of

650
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 12: my influencer friends and she had a seven figure brand.

651
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 10: Y'all, a seven figure brand.

652
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 11: How many flowers does she have?

653
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 12: At the time she was mainly on YouTube, she probably

654
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 12: had about four or five million. The thing was like

655
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 12: she had this insane relationship with her audience, and I

656
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 12: think that that's one thing that people don't understand.

657
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 10: People get so caught.

658
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 12: Up in followers and follower growth, but it's like, really,

659
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 12: just having a close relationship with your audience and trust

660
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 12: with your audience is everything. Like I always I'm like, man,

661
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 12: if I just have twenty thousand people that actually trust

662
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 12: my opinion, I'm good.

663
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 11: It's very valuable.

664
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 10: That's all that you really need is just trust.

665
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 11: If you had to rank everything, I know you love

666
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 11: everything that you do, but if you had to rank

667
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 11: favorites between Instagram, the podcast, and Divvy, how would those

668
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 11: rank for you? Like most favorite thing right now to

669
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 11: least favorite.

670
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 12: My favorite thing overall is probably Divvy, just because it's

671
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 12: grown so big and like so outside of me. The

672
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 12: team is incredible. We have a team of female scientists

673
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 12: that create all of our products.

674
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 10: I'm most involved in product development.

675
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 12: But outside of that, I'm just like I sometimes I'm

676
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 12: like we walk into Alta or Target, I'm like, oh my.

677
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 10: Gosh, oh yeah, like I created that. It's just it's wild.

678
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 11: And then you say something to your daughter when she

679
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 11: was little, like shopping at Olta, like wouldn't be so

680
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 11: cool if mommy ended up.

681
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, yes, and I was We had just launched

682
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 12: our scalps here just you to see, and I always

683
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 12: wanted to get it into Alta, and I'm like pushing

684
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 12: my daughter.

685
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 10: I'm like, Stella, do you think we can do it?

686
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 10: Do you think we do in? A year later, like

687
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 10: almost to the day we launched at Alta?

688
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 11: Do you live in fear of all of this being

689
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 11: taken away and being canceled?

690
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 10: I live in no fear.

691
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 12: It's kind of like it's maybe one of my superpowers.

692
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 12: Whenever I got married to my husband and I was

693
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 12: trying to convince him to quit his job and let's

694
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 12: work together. This is back when he was like the

695
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 12: influencer husband or the Instagram husband, He's always like he's

696
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 12: way more fear based, and he's like, what if it

697
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 12: just like what if we get canceled? I go, Babe,

698
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 12: the worst thing that couldn't happen is we have to

699
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 12: move out of our house and we're homeless, but we

700
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 12: still have each other. Like that's literally like that's the

701
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,959
Speaker 12: worst thing that can happen, and that's still great. So

702
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 12: I truly don't live in fear like that. I'm I'm

703
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 12: also really I've always been like a saver, so so

704
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 12: everything from day one, I've just saved or invested, like

705
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 12: and so I think that also helps me not feel

706
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 12: so fearful of it all going away because we always

707
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 12: have something to fall back on. But yeah, no, I've

708
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 12: just I'm honestly just very grateful that we're still here.

709
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 11: When you look back in time at the moment that

710
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 11: your hair started significantly falling out, do you feel like

711
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 11: that was coming from stress of content creation?

712
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 10: I mean, I've.

713
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 12: Probably been canceled quote unquote canceled like four times in

714
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 12: my life, and this one happened after the first like cancelation,

715
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 12: which I've never even really talked.

716
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 10: About this we'll tell us because I don't know.

717
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 12: Well, I mean it's like a whole you know, everybody's

718
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 12: been canceled so many times for so many different things. Now,

719
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 12: it's like, but but this one was like the first

720
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 12: time that I had like really intense hate people telling

721
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 12: me to go, you know, jump off a bridge, to

722
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 12: hurt myself whatever.

723
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 10: And I had never had that type of feedback before.

724
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 12: And so on top of just like honestly nutritionally not

725
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 12: taking care of myself, I wasn't working out.

726
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 10: I wasn't. I was just like a workaholic.

727
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 12: On top of all of that, the stress that came

728
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,399
Speaker 12: from that cancelation like.

729
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 10: Really affected my hair, I think too.

730
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 12: And then I got hair extensions to try to cover

731
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 12: it up, and that caused traction alopecia. And what people

732
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 12: don't understand about hair extensions or attraction alopecia is if

733
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 12: you're tugging on this like one section of your hair,

734
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 12: you don't just lose hair where the hair extension was attached,

735
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 12: you lose like the entire patch, like around this whole

736
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 12: surface area. So and so that's why when you see

737
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 12: people with hair extension damage and you take out their

738
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 12: hair extensions, their hair looks very jig jaggedy and like

739
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 12: almost like very fluffy on the ends.

740
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 13: And that's that's why. So anyway, I had so.

741
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 12: Many there were so many issues with my health, and

742
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 12: so I just decided, Okay, I'm gonna take this year

743
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 12: and transition into wigs, and I'm gonna wear wigs. And

744
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 12: I actually went to school too. I was a kinesiology major.

745
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 12: So I went to school to apply to pizza school.

746
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 12: I didn't apply to pizza school, but I understood, like

747
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,919
Speaker 12: the basic systems of your body. And so I would

748
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 12: get into my bathroom and start making my own scalp

749
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 12: serums because I felt like this was like the air

750
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 12: of dry shampoo, and people were just like just spray

751
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 12: dry shampoo, never showering anymore. And that's great, but all

752
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 12: of that gunk was just sitting on your scalp, which

753
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 12: is also just not good for you, has.

754
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 10: Horrible ingredients in it.

755
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 12: It's going through a hair follicle, clogging your hair follicle,

756
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 12: not giving your follicle like a full chance of growth.

757
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 12: And so I just decided, Okay, I'm gonna start like

758
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 12: detoxing and stimulating. And I shared all this with my

759
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 12: audience on YouTube and they were like, hey, can you

760
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 12: send us some. So my first when I wanted to

761
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 12: launch Divvy, it was really just like a scalp steum

762
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 12: I had made in my bathroom.

763
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 10: That was really all it was. And I don't have

764
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 10: like genetically the most beautiful hair.

765
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 12: It's it's thin thin, it's fine, no, same, I have

766
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 12: clippins and yeah, yeah my hair, you and I have

767
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 12: the exact same hair textures.

768
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 13: Yeah, and it's in like so, but I feel like there's.

769
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 12: Not a lot of products for girls like us because

770
00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 12: all the people that are creating shampoos and conditions, they

771
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 12: all have genetically beautiful hair.

772
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 10: So I was like, can we focus on like the thin.

773
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 12: Girl, thinning hair, girls and women that need help with

774
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 12: their scalp and so it was just insane. I launched

775
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 12: that scalps here and we did forty million in sales

776
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 12: the first year.

777
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,479
Speaker 11: And what were you hoping to make?

778
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 10: Honestly, I didn't even have a number. This was not

779
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:19,479
Speaker 10: like a business like if.

780
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 11: You made two hundred thousand dollars, you've probably been like wow,

781
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 11: oh one hundred percent.

782
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 13: Yeah, I've been like wow, and like that's good.

783
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 10: We got this.

784
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,439
Speaker 12: We got the product out to the girls. Now let's

785
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 12: move back off. Like I didn't think I was gonna

786
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 12: have a haircare.

787
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 10: Company like.

788
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 5: Got it.

00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,560

Speaker 1: like three in the morning. That's that's totally fine, totally fair.

817
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: You can do that. I question your life decisions unless

818
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: you're working a job that has some odd hours, but

819
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: three am emails just as good as regular emails. During

820
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,919
Speaker 1: the show, we got this email from Brad yesterday saying

821
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: that Savannah and Andez was wrong. Minnesota is actually a

822
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: very red state except for the deep blue Minneapolis area,

823
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: and Brad, I happen to agree with you. I will

824
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: reprimand Savannah severely. So many states are like this. They are.

825
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the geographic map of the

826
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: entire country and it's pretty much all red except for

827
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: these tiny little blue specs where the population centers are.

828
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:40,239
Speaker 1: California is like that Los Angeles San Francisco area outside

829
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 1: of those very populous parts of the state, very very red,

830
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: especially if you go out past the suburbs. It's like

831
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: as red as red gets, but unfortunately controlled by the

832
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: population area. So Brad, you are correct on that observation,

833
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: and like I said, I will reprimand Savannah for her

834
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: disgraceful and disgusting comments on the great state of Minnesota. Also,

835
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: William emailed on the name says my odd name, which

836
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: again it is odd. I fully admit that reminds him

837
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: of a time when his mom was talking about his siblings.

838
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 1: I believe it. I don't have it in front of me,

839
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: Joe and Bob and Joe Bob. So we'll appreciate you

840
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: watching and sending in your emails again tpt at tpusa

841
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 1: dot com. I want to get to this video. This

842
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: isn't a throwdown Thursday. There's too much throwing involved in

843
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,879
Speaker 1: the show already today with the sandwich, Glenn pointed out

844
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 1: that you know, can't do too many throwing. We've reached

845
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: our throwing capacity and our throw limit, so not really

846
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 1: throw it on Thursday. But what it is is, I

847
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 1: don't know how people make these videos. Seriously, I am

848
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: a big fan of satire and sarcass I'm sure a

849
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: lot of you are. To me this this views as

850
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: a sarcastic, satirical video, but apparently it's not. At least

851
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: of my knowledge, I cannot find anyone saying no, no,

852
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: this is sad tire. This lady's clear joking. She seriously

853
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 1: put this video out and so without further I gotta

854
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 1: get to show it to you. Watch this.

855
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 4: You know what I'm sick of. I'm sick of the

856
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 4: food stamp office.

857
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 14: Okay, okay, hang on, hang on, before I get myself

858
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 14: worked up. I just came here to talk about how

859
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 14: I went. I went from literally seventeen hundred dollars in

860
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 14: food stamps for a family of three. Okay, I don't work.

861
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 14: I stay home every day. I'm not able to work,

862
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 14: so I should be getting the maximum amount, especially because

863
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 14: he needs cereal, chips, pop, he needs all.

864
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,760
Speaker 4: That, and I need my energy drinks.

865
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 14: So I'm not gonna have this taken me down from

866
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,879
Speaker 14: that much, and they took me all the way down

867
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 14: to one hundred and one hundred and twenty dollars, which

868
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 14: they didn't even tell me why. I just got this

869
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 14: notice in here. It says they were cutting me back

870
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 14: on food stamps. So now I'm really gonna have to

871
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 14: cut back on everything. He's not gonna be able to

872
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,399
Speaker 14: have his pop no more. He's not gonna be able

873
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 14: to have his cereal every day for breakfast and his chips.

874
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:06,919
Speaker 15: That he eats all day long.

875
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 14: Wow, great, thanks, thanks.

876
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: I honest to god, how do you make that video? Seriously,

877
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: how do you think that people are gonna be like,

878
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry that your child isn't

879
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: gonna be able to ingest things that will slowly deteriorate

880
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: his insights. Why how could they do that to you?

881
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,359
Speaker 1: How do you think that that's the way people are

882
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: gonna react to that? First of all, and you know,

883
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,399
Speaker 1: I don't know her situation. I would say, though, as

884
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 1: an offhanded observer, it seems like you might be able

885
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: to work. It's just just a thought. Just I don't

886
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 1: actually know what her situation is. Maybe she definitively actually

887
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: can't work. But holy cow, the entitlement there is unbelievable.

888
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: It's hard to believe that people make these not satirically

889
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 1: or sarcastically, and think that people are gonna come flocking

890
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 1: to their sides like, oh yeah, no, actually, so here

891
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: here you go. Here's more money for you to dwindle

892
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: away feeding your kids soda and chips all day.

893
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 10: Wow.

894
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: Anyways, that's going to do a first here, a turning

895
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: point tonight, Charlie is going to take us out. We

896
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: will see you tomorrow, same time seeing please God bless America.

897
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 16: Paints called the Annointing of Matthew or the a point

898
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:30,879
Speaker 16: in of Matthew I can't remember which probably a point

899
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 16: in I suppose like one of the geezers is sat

900
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 16: at the end like that, and I think that's the

901
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 16: one that's Matthew. That one what you who's getting appointed,

902
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 16: and you will understand he's reluctance to be appointed in

903
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 16: this holy mission when you see that. The next of

904
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 16: their they're not a trip tich, but they are free

905
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 16: paintings hung together is Matthew with Gabriel Wright in.

906
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 15: His Testament and Gospel.

907
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 16: And then the final image is Matthew being flayed, which

908
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 16: means skinned alive for his faith and for his chrisanity.

909
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 16: I thought, if we believed as he believed, how could

910
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 16: it be that you could have an institution like the

911
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 16: Vatcan and not have a revolution? If we believed as

912
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 16: he believed, how could you have us go into church

913
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 16: every Sunday praying, teaching our kids reading the Word and

914
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 16: not have the revolution or at least the way he

915
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 16: made straight for.

916
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:20,800
Speaker 15: The return of our Savior.

917
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 16: If we believed only as Paul believed, as Peter believed,

918
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 16: as Barnabas believed, as Mary believed, as Stephen believed, this

919
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 16: is the church that excites and interests me, and I

920
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 16: know it comes at a high cost. And I know

921
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 16: what our Lord said to is it a Nias? When

922
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 16: Paul's on his way Damascus. Paul's come in. I've chosen him.

923
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 16: He's going to suffer greatly for my name. So go

924
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 16: over there and sort his head out. He's gone blind,

925
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 16: he's had a little bit of a shock on the

926
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 16: way here, paraphrasing. But what I feel is that it

927
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,880
Speaker 16: was a thresholder was past, Charlie, that I was still

928
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 16: withheld in the New Age, and I still bear the

929
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:57,319
Speaker 16: scars of the New Age.

930
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 17: I was going to ask you about that, but I

931
00:43:58,520 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 17: wanted to be polite.

932
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 16: She's the Durga is a great goddess in you know,

933
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,359
Speaker 16: this is attatle I've had for some years now, of course,

934
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 16: prior's coming.

935
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 17: To I mean, why'd you decide to get a tattoo

936
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 17: of her?

937
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 16: Because Durgha is a she's female goddess energy. And I

938
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 16: have a wife, and I have two daughters, and I

939
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 16: always commemorate in and celebrate in the power of my

940
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 16: wife Laura, and of my daughters Mabel and Peggy. Durgha,

941
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 16: in one of our aspects, rides a tiger, and I

942
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 16: like the idea of my daughters and my wife being powerful,

943
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 16: strong women who know how to marshal the energy that

944
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,879
Speaker 16: God gave them. And of course there is no God

945
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 16: by him, and I surrender him, bow down to Christ Jesus,

946
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 16: and I disavow all false idols. But the false idols

947
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 16: that concern me most are not those that merge out

948
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 16: of Hinduism or even Islam, although I'm sure you.

949
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 15: Will hear rhetoric here to the contrary.

950
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 16: No, it is the false idols that emerge from our culture,

951
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,879
Speaker 16: the ones that the graven images that we stare at

952
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 16: day after day, hour after hour, the endless, endless effluvia

953
00:44:56,440 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 16: and limitless flow of filth and pornography that denigrates.

954
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 15: It lowers us.

955
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 16: Or it's the false idols within our culture that I

956
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 16: fear most. But you know, Peter took the Jews, and

957
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 16: Paul took their gentiles.

958
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 15: We're all going to get called to different missions. And

959
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 15: I don't claim to know very much.

960
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 16: I think about myself all the time, and I don't

961
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 16: understand myself yet, so how would I know anything about

962
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 16: anyone or anything else. But what I would say is

963
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,919
Speaker 16: is the false idols in the culture that I fear most,

964
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 16: that want us deadened and distracted.

965
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 17: I totally agree.

966
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 8: It's look, modernity has made us materially wealthier but spiritually poor,

967
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 8: and that that is modernity, and we are seeing a

968
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 8: reckoning of that while people want to return to a tradition.

969
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 17: We'll only know a couple. We only have a couple

970
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 17: of minutes.

971
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 8: I got to get you on stage, but really, yes,

972
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 8: this is just the warm up act.

973
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 15: Man, I'm feeling nervous. How many.

974
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 17: It'll calm you down?

975
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 15: Give me that from my pocket?

976
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 17: Yes, no, that's there, seven thousand people for you.

977
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 15: Oh, Charlie Russell.

978
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,320
Speaker 17: Your show is called Stay Free?

979
00:45:59,520 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 12: Yes?

980
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 17: Are you?

981
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 7: Do?

982
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 17: You believe you are freer and more joyful since giving

983
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 17: your life to Jesus Man, There's.

984
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 16: No question, even with the really difficult things that happened,

985
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 16: like being told that our baby might be born dead,

986
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 16: being offered a late term abortion, him being born and

987
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 16: requiring us a surgery twelve when he was twelve weeks old,

988
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,439
Speaker 16: turning into the glorious little boy that he is now,

989
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 16: the reputational attacks, the exhaustion, the confronting with the things

990
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 16: that I have done wrong in my life. I've never

991
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 16: been so free in obedience and surrender to him, there.

992
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 15: Is perfect freedom. There is no freedom out there.

993
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 16: There's no freedom in hedonism, in epicureanism, in the constant

994
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 16: devouring of concupians and endless pleasures, there's no freedom.

995
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 15: There is an illusion, but it's a powerful illusion.

996
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 16: I'm not suggesting I couldn't fall for it again a

997
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 16: thousand times. I have to stay very close to Christ Jesus,

998
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 16: and to do that I need Christians everywhere around me.

999
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 15: And perhaps that's what fuels my evangelism.

1000
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 8: And so, yeah, Russell, what has worked for you? Every

1001
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 8: believer is different. Is it Christian music? Is it reading

1002
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 8: the Bible? Is it going to true? What keeps you

1003
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 8: close to Jesus? Because you're right, you're constantly attacked by

1004
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 8: the way Satan, I believe has singled you out for

1005
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 8: quite a while. And you better believe the enemy is

1006
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 8: not happy that now you're proclaiming Jesus in front of

1007
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 8: millions of people. And you know, we as believers believe

1008
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 8: Satan is real, Satan is active. Yes, Satan attack Satan's targets.

1009
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,840
Speaker 8: Satan is literally in Hebrew Satan means the prosecutor, the deceiver.

1010
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 8: So all what you are going through in the United

1011
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 8: Kingdom is a Satanic attack to try to say, oh, Russell,

1012
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 8: remember that thing that happened ten years ago, Try to

1013
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 8: have you feel guilty and ashamed. Remember Satan throughout the

1014
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 8: scriptures would constantly always whisper, whether it be in the

1015
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 8: garden or elsewhere, about Oh, you need to be held

1016
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,879
Speaker 8: back by what you once did. But Christ sets you free,

1017
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 8: and so knowing that what keeps you spiritually active and alive,

1018
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 8: you know.

1019
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 16: Of course I am cowed by what I've done, by

1020
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 16: I am attacked for things that I have not done.

1021
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 16: I recognize that my objects for case and exploitation was wrong,

1022
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 16: and I accept the forgiveness of my Lord, and I

1023
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 16: pray for the forgiveness of people that have been negatively

1024
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,760
Speaker 16: impacted by my selfish conduct, by my greedy con deduct

1025
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 16: by my low conduct. I was told this by this

1026
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:17,320
Speaker 16: brilliant Vietnam vett in your great nation. Everything's a burning bush,

1027
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 16: everything's a but insane.

1028
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 15: He said it like this, everything's a burning bush. It

1029
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 15: is how he said it. That's how he said it.

1030
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 15: May I ask what you mean, sir, And he.

1031
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 16: Said that Moses could have encountered Yahweh at any time.

1032
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 15: It could have happened at any time.

1033
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 16: Take off your shoes, for you are on sacred ground

1034
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 16: that all things are incandescent with the Lord, yet not immolated.

1035
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 16: All of us burn with the holy light of the

1036
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 16: Holy Father. All of us feel the living presence of

1037
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 16: the Holy Spirit, and all of us benefit from the

1038
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 16: sacrifice of Christ Jesus, and we may know eternal life

1039
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 16: in him. We access him here in this moment. Let

1040
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 16: this moment be a burning bush to all of us.

1041
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,760
Speaker 16: Let us comfort one another, let us love one another,

1042
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 16: Let us serve one another as He has served us.

1043
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,080
Speaker 17: Amen, so beautiful.

1044

Speaker 8: can rest that Jesus is with you throughout every step

00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,640
