I can't tell you how many 12 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 1: times lately I've turned on a Netflix show. I can 13 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: see it and think to myself, they've spent millions and 14 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: millions of dollars on this, Oh, how is it so bad? 15 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: What is going on? Well? You know the agendas there. 16 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just craziness. And I you know, you 17 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: look at it, but you're talking about Netflix, you talk 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: about um Disney, and this guy has paid the price 19 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: this year because people said enough is enough. I mean, 20 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: I get into ten minutes of something on one of 21 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: these shows. And it just goes, really, they're gonna push 22 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: this thing again, and people got tired of it. I 23 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: think if you look at I think the most successful 24 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: movie out there for the just really the mainstream people. 25 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: You don't have to be conservative, you just have to 26 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: be suffering common sense was Tom Cruises the Maverick Top 27 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: Gun the movie. I mean, people loved that movie and 28 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: it showed Holly what that people want more movies like that. 29 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: So it's it's amazing to me what they're doing. And 30 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: I don't know why they don't wake up. It's it's 31 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: weird to me that they keep fighting the fight against 32 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: as to put product out there that people want. But 33 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: that's my job and I've been doing that for the 34 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: last ten years now. No, I mean, you were a 35 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: part of and I'm gonna have to ask you about 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: Hercules A Legendary Journey because back in the day, I 37 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: used to I used to watch that. I love that show, 38 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: so I used to watch that show. I was a fan. 39 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: I gotta brag a little bit. By season three, we 40 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: became the most watched TV show in the world. We 41 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: were in one hundred and seventy six countries. So I 42 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: had a seven year run on that show and I 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: had an absolute blast. But they wouldn't do that today. 44 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 1: I mean they would, they would make Hercules a transgender 45 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: now or something. I mean, they wouldn't make it the 46 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: same way that we made it back then. It's it's 47 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: just I don't. I don't, I don't. I don't know 48 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: how did that all come? By the way, how did 49 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: that show? So I love anything that's got some historic 50 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously Greek mythology is the basis for that, 51 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: but that's got some historical either tie in or I 52 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 1: think well done period piece. This is things like Gladiator 53 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: or Braveheart or you know, things of uh. I wish 54 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: I could say that the um what is what's the 55 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: one with the Greek gods that they remade recently? It 56 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: just wasn't wasn't all that well done, Like you know 57 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, the one with the Australian actor and 58 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: it's the Greek gods. I can't I'll remember in a second. 59 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,839 Speaker 1: But oh no, no, well there's that. I mean, that's 60 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,399 Speaker 1: the Marvel Universe. I mean the one that's they brought back. 61 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: It's got when he says, released the crack in what's 62 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: the least the cracked movie that yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 63 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it's anyway for dad, But 64 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: I love I love all that stuff generally speaking. How 65 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: did how did the whole Hercules a legendary Journeys thing 66 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: come together? I'm a typical audition you know they do. 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: You know when I lived in California, it was the 68 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: typical one. They call you obs. Hey, they're doing a 69 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: new new new movies actually starting. It was gonna be 70 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: five two hour movies before it became a series. And 71 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: I said, kay, I'm a big guy, but I'm not 72 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: like a steroid dude. I mean, they're gonna want these 73 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: big body but no, no, no, they're looking for like 74 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: a a Decatholete or an NFL quarterback sized guy. So 75 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: sure enough, my first audition at Universal pretty much what 76 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: it was. Um, they called me back seven times before 77 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: I got the role. They auditioned two thousand, eight hundred 78 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: actors in North America, I found out later. So I 79 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: got down the last three guys and I got the role. 80 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: And um, you know, initially I said five two our movies. 81 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: I got to work with Anthony Quinn, which was awesome. 82 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: Here was a guy who's been nominated I think about 83 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: five times for Academy Awards and won a couple of them. So, um, 84 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: it was pretty cool to work with him. And I 85 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: knew by the third movie. I said too, you know, 86 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: I said, they're gonna make that to my manager, they're 87 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: gonna make this as serious. There's no there's nothing like 88 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: it on TV. And I'll tell you any time, whether 89 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: it's a movie or TV show, Hollywood follows a copy 90 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: of So by our third year there was all these 91 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: copycat shows. There was Sinbad, there was Tarzan, there was Conan, 92 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: there was Robin Hood. So all these shows tried to 93 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: copy what we were doing. And that's that's typical of Hollywood. 94 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: They want to jump on that bandwagon if there's something 95 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: doing going hot and strong. So you are on the 96 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: track for seven years. I remember your your sidekick on 97 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: that show. How do you guys get along? And how 98 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: did he end up doing Eolis? He's a New Zealander. Um, 99 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: we are about as different as two people can be, 100 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: but we got along just fine. You know, he's he's 101 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: you know, I'm conservative. He's about as far left as 102 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: you can go in the country, like New Zealand at 103 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: socialists had so this is actually perfect way to transition. 104 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: By the way to release the crack in movie is 105 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: Clash of the Titans, which I was trying to think of, 106 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: which so it's Clash of the Titans, which should be amazing. 107 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: It just it just wasn't well done. It had great 108 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: some great actors, it wasn't well done, and it was 109 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: obviously a remake. But you know what we saw about 110 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: COVID in Australia, in New Zealand, I think that was 111 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: a wake up call for me. You know, I'm an 112 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: x Cia guy. I spent a lot of time Middle 113 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: East places like that. I just always assumed that Australia 114 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: was kind of like England, but a little bit more 115 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: fun a little bit better weather, you know, more funky 116 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: animals koalas and kangaroos and stuff. And it turned out 117 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: that these places, more specifically in New Zealand or more 118 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: even more clearly in New Zealand, are kind of like 119 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: East Germany with weird accents or different accents than the 120 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: German ones. I gotta be honest, I was shocked, I 121 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: really was. I didn't think those two kinds would react 122 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,239 Speaker 1: that way, or they put people in that political power 123 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: that way. But it shows you what what fear. I mean, 124 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: our government uses fear as a weapon as well. But 125 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: I have buddies down there, and I was told about 126 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: what they were doing in both countries. I've spent time. 127 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: I've shot movies in Australia. I probably spent about a 128 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: year and a half in Australia through the years. I 129 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: was blown away by how crazy. And now I see 130 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: the Prime Minister from New Zealand stepping down because I 131 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: understand her rating and criople ratings like twenty seven percent 132 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: or something, so she's but they're replacing her. What yet 133 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: another guy that's just as strict with all the old 134 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: you know, everybody's got to take you know, eight shots 135 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: every year. And I mean, it's just it's crazy that 136 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: people let that happen. It's crazy that this country is 137 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: letting that happen. I keep reminding people it is we 138 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: the people. But you know, we have a bunch of 139 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: sheep in this country. We have a bunch of people 140 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: that just apathy is the killer of America and people 141 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: don't seem to care. And I'm glad you're fighting the fight. 142 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: I'm fighting the fight. So you know, here we are, 143 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're also a guy like me who has 144 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: moved on to the greener pastures of Florida and the 145 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: Red State revolution that is occurring here leaving California year 146 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: case New York. In my case, I want to get 147 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: into that in a second, because I've never obviously in 148 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: our life, in my lifetime, in your lifetime, I don't 149 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: think we've ever seen anything like this. So we'll get 150 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: into that in just a second. But I want to 151 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: tell everybody about the Tunnel of the Towers Foundation for 152 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: a moment.

Not to get 178 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: too fanboy over here, but I love the show. I 179 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: thought it was great, so so did I read it 180 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: as a kid. So meeting up playing Hercules is pretty cool. 181 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: And what the writers did, They also did pretty good 182 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: moral messages in there, but they also put a lot 183 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: of humor in there, and I kind of said that 184 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: Sam Ramy was our exact producer, so he did the 185 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: Spider Man movies and Evil Dead and all that, and 186 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: I told Sam, I said, you know what, we gotta 187 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: make sure people laugh with us and not at us, 188 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: because otherwise we too easy for people to, you know, 189 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: to make fun of the show. And I think people 190 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: love the humor of this of this series. So when 191 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: season three started with all the spin off all the 192 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: show's trying to copy us, we spun off a female 193 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: type herculars show zena Warrior p. I was gonna say 194 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: Lucy Lawless, but in season yeah, she kept her first 195 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: husband's last name but married my producer. Okay, figure that 196 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: one out anyway. It was let me put it this way, 197 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: the casting couch is alive in a well, no matter 198 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: where you're on the world. So season five, Wow, Season five, 199 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: we spun off Young Hercules, and Young Hercules was played 200 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: by a twenty year old actor. At the time, most 201 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: people nobody knew who he was, but everybody knows he 202 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: is now because the show got canceled for two years 203 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: and he was devastated. And I went out to lunch 204 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: with him, and I said, hey, dude, you're a good actor. 205 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: You'll do fine. His name is Ryan Gosling. Really he 206 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: played me as a teenager. So Ryan, if you're watching 207 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: wink wink, I'm sure he's watching us. You know you 208 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: owe me something. Put me one of your movies. I 209 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: will tell you there are secret right wing actors out 210 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: there who occasionally reach out, and they do listen to 211 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: they do listen to talk radio. And if we get 212 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: a little too, a little too dismissive of all all 213 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: those commies in Hollywood, and they know they don't know, 214 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: they sometimes don't reach out and say, hey, I'm not 215 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: gonna I'm not going public with this, but just so 216 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: you know, you know, I listened to you back. I 217 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: listened to the radio show every day, and I know 218 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: who they are. But yeah, you know we're We're the 219 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: new in the closet, the gays in the Hollywood and 220 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: on the closet, the conservatives, the one that are in 221 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: the closet. Now. I came out many years ago, so 222 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: I just got tired of it. So I'm m I'll 223 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: tell you how we moved on, what happened. We both 224 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: have family of here. My wife and both have family 225 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: in Florida. We've been coming out here for years. We 226 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: know the place and were about ten years ago we 227 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: started talking about it, so we came out of here 228 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: before the COVID thing. We've been on here over four 229 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: years now, and it got to a point I said, 230 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: I hate getting in the car, I hate driving in 231 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: this city. I hate put up the taxes and the 232 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: ridiculous politics. So we put the house up for sale, 233 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: and what happened is one of the many fires that 234 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: always happened in California came through our neighborhood there in 235 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: Thousand Oaks. We lost three homes in our neighborhood to 236 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: the fire. Fire came within three feet of our house, 237 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: went around the house. A guy came up to the 238 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: house so the first sales sign and said, hey, look 239 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: our house print down. Can we rent your house for 240 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: the next two years and we'll take care of your 241 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: mortgage and everything like that. My wife and I said, okay, 242 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: look we're out of here. So we left and within 243 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: two years the house was sold, so we didn't have 244 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: to go back. And I wasn't planning anywhere because we 245 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: already bought a house here in Florida. So my wife 246 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: put out a positive frame of mind there and said, no, 247 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: the house is gonna sell, and she was right, It's sold. 248 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: It's just amazing to feel like, for the for the 249 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: first time my vote matters in a meaningful way as 250 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: a New Yorker. I look, Lizelden came pretty close in 251 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: the last election for governor. Not close enough, but he 252 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: did a good job at least pulling up some of 253 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: the Republican congressmen out in Long Island, and those are 254 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: those ended up being critical pickops right for the for 255 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: a pretty disappointing twenty twenty two mid term. But to 256 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: be down here in Florida after Rhonda Santis with his 257 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: effectively twenty point win and the massive part you know, 258 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: the registration in this state from twenty eighteen. They just 259 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: put out the latest numbers today, Kevin. It was two 260 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand Democrat advantage for registration. So if 261 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 1: they had a quarter of a million registered voter or 262 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: advantage in the state, people don't realize that. So it 263 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: was it was technically a Democrat state. I mean, sometimes 264 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: it would go red, but Democrats don't. It would turn 265 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: out in the same numbers. Now it is a four 266 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: hundred thousand plus R state. It is four hundred thousand. 267 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: You're talking about a six hundred and fifty thousand vote 268 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: shift over the course of just four years. So, I mean, 269 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: it's been remarkable that the success here. But you know, 270 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: it's funny because this is actually what the founders that 271 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: the way this was all set up, and how we 272 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: have states and places to go and you can see 273 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: what works and what doesn't. I try to remind Amberdi 274 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: this is this is the way it's supposed to be. 275 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: You know of California, which is is a gift from 276 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: God as a state, right, I mean, the geography and 277 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: the bountiful land. If the communes like Newsom are going 278 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: to destroy it, people got to move elsewhere. Well, California's 279 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: lost ten million people, I'm sorry, five million people last 280 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: ten years alone. When I got Hercules, I got rid 281 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: of my place in Santa Monica, California because even though 282 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: it's gone ten months a year, California still want to 283 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: charge the state tax. So I moved to Henderson, Nevada, 284 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: outside of Vegas. When I moved there in ninety four, 285 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: there was seven hundred thousand people. They got three million 286 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: people now in that city. It's crazy. And unfortunately all 287 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: these idiots vote the same way. They left California for 288 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: the way they voted. They moved to Nevada, and they're 289 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: doing the same thing in Texas, trying to change it. 290 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: They're doing the same things in Tennessee and they come 291 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: here as well. I've already destroyed Colorado, I mean that 292 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: state's gone, and Arizona. Really, you know, we gotta get 293 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: rid of this mail in voting. It's pretty obvious they're 294 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: using it to cheat, and we need to get rid 295 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: of it. You get one vote, you vote the day 296 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: of the election, making a national holiday. People have to 297 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: go vote. They don't vote. God luck show an idea. 298 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: There's nothing racist about that. We can fix his problems 299 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: so easily. But we got you know, we have so 300 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 1: many sheep in this country. They just don't want to 301 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: do anything about it. It's it's it's it's bizarre to me. 302 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: I can't figure it out. It just blows me away 303 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: that these people are willing to have their lives totally 304 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: led crazily great by a bigger, bigger government. And I 305 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: tell people all the time, our government today is worse 306 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: than the monarchy was two hundred fifty years ago when 307 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: we started the revolution. War. They're doing everything that the 308 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: government over there was doing, but bigger and worse in 309 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: controlling our lives, and people just go, wow, what can 310 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: I do? Yeah? Well, you know, it's interesting when you 311 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: go back and read read about what it was like 312 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: and what the founders were upset about at the time, 313 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: Taxes on things that really upset them, lack of representation, 314 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: and really just the feeling that the votes here for 315 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: the burgesses for example in Virginia right going back to 316 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: you know, the pre revolutionary colonies that back in with 317 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: the monarchy, and back in England, it was it's cute 318 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: that the peasants over the over in the colony think 319 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: that they get to call the shots, but really we 320 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: actually call the shots, meaning we'll just disband their House 321 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: of Burgesses or their representation in the colony, whatever it 322 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: is they call it whenever it annoys us, and if 323 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: they play nicely, we'll let them come back. You know. 324 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: You see with COVID and what Democrats did in this country, 325 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean I refer to it as I referred to 326 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: them as communist. I think it's so funny they always say, oh, communism, 327 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: we're not communists because communists wan't the same for everything. 328 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: It's like, no, actually, communism is just a belief system 329 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: in using malcontents in society to seize power under false 330 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: revolutionary rhetoric and actually just have a new class of 331 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: elites oppressing everybody else under the false belief they're making 332 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: everybody equal. It's actually not that everyone's equal. I've been 333 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: a lot, went into a lot of Eastern Indian countries. 334 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: I shot in Bratoslava and check in Romania, all those places. 335 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: All the money right fifty years that you know Germany 336 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: was I mean that Russia was taken over everything, all 337 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: the money goes into the government buildings, didn't help. They 338 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: didn't help the people at all. You know, they got there, 339 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: they got their silver and gold toilets, and it's it's 340 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: just it's so obvious. But you know you've heard the 341 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: same thing and people, but well they just didn't do 342 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: it right last time. You know, we know how to 343 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: make socialism and communism work. And yeah, yeah, as you 344 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: tear down statues and rewrite history because every country, every 345 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: country has wonderful history. Only America has bad history. And 346 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: you know, I'm down here in South Florida, and I 347 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: mean you're not You're not far away. There are so 348 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: many Venezuelans. One of the things I love about about 349 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: Sophomore actually is is the Cuban population here and the 350 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: Venezuelan population here because they love America. They really appreciate 351 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: this place, They appreciate freedom. They do not trust socialist 352 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: bullcraft promises because they've seen I mean, Cuba was obviously 353 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: a while ago, and people have been here for a 354 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: couple of generations now. But the Venezuelans, they're arriving and 355 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: they still have fresh stories about you know, my family's 356 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: business was just seized by government thugs who said we're 357 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: redistributing this to the people. By the way, of course, 358 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: it never gets to the people. It's the local commissar 359 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: decides he's going to divvy up whatever they have on 360 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: the shelves, and they just destroy the business, they seize 361 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: the assets. This is going on, and it's all the 362 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: name of social justice. Kevin, I mean, I do think 363 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: that more people the country should know that a very 364 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: wealthy by Latin American centers country has been destroyed by 365 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: people claiming they're gonna make everybody's everything free, weren't they 366 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: They were the wealthiest country in the Southern Hemisphere for 367 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: a long time. That's right, the largest proven oil reserves 368 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: in the world, larger actually than even Saudi Arabia, although 369 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: they're oils more expensive to refine. You know, we need 370 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: to take all the Venezuelans here, because when my son 371 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: went to buy a car, the guy selling car was 372 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: a Venezuelan. They've been here about a year now, and 373 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: we asked him about his country. He told us how 374 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: horrible it was, and I said, we need our government 375 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 1: like to Santis needs to send these people into high schools, 376 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: in junior high schools, absolutely tes that's these are the 377 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: people that need to go out to say I lived it. 378 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: I know what it's like. I mean, I keep saying, 379 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: if you want your utopia, then moved to Venezuela, moved 380 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,479 Speaker 1: to North Korea. I want. I mean, by the way, 381 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: I love that idea and I really do think that 382 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: that and you know, I know some of the some 383 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: of the De Santist team folks, I think that's something 384 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: we could maybe get going here because it's even for 385 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: the most the most hardcore, blue haired, sad malcontent, you know, 386 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: leftist from you know, Oberlin or Berkeley or Brown University 387 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: or wherever to stare in the eyes of somebody who 388 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: had to truly flee a real asylum seeker from say Venezuela, 389 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: because their family were enemies of the regime and they 390 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: were entirely dispossessed, and they were afraid of starving to 391 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: death because people who wanted to make everything social justice 392 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: based ruined everything. I think it's hard for those leftists, 393 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: you know, for you and me, they go, oh, privileged 394 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: white males, and you know, they just ignore it and 395 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: they won't engage intellectually. But for people who are who 396 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: are true refugees from socialist dictatorship in Venezuela, I think 397 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: that's a compelling message they have to share. I think 398 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: more people should hear it. I laughed, and I said, 399 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: privileged white people. I'm the fourth of five kids. My 400 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: dad was a school teacher. I'm a school teacher's salary, 401 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: public schools. My clothes are hand me down to my 402 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: older brothers. We have powdered milk and powdered eggs. But 403 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: I never fell without. I didn't. I knew I very 404 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: loving parents. I knew there were rich people in my 405 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: school and what that did and motivated me. I mean, 406 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: I usually caddy at this private country club when I 407 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,959 Speaker 1: was in college, and I asked these guys, how did 408 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: you become successful? And they also do the same thing. Oh, 409 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: I failed, and then I failed again. Then I failed 410 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 1: for about ten more years. But they didn't give up 411 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: today's society, especially if you're under thirty years old. These 412 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: guys they failed once and it's year fault. And God, 413 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: they don't believe in fault. It's everybody's fault. So please 414 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: take care of me. I'll work for George Sorrows and 415 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,959 Speaker 1: collect unemployment off your tax dollars. I mean, I know 416 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: I could. I could probably do a psychoanalysis of every 417 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 1: anti antifa member, these guys that are against fascist, even 418 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: though they're the fascist. So it's it's it's crazy that 419 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: we're letting these people do what they're doing, and now 420 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: they're doing again up in Georgia right now, what's that about? 421 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: Send people in and take these guys down, just arrest them. 422 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: But you can do anything in this country. Now I'm 423 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: not getting arrested. And look what's happening, and what five 424 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: million people across the boarder didn't Trump let like one 425 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: point four million in four years. Yeah, the numbers, the numbers, 426 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: the number is staggering. And you may have actually seen 427 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: recently in New York the people who are claiming to 428 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: be and I always think this is so important, claiming 429 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: to be asylum seekers. Remember you know people from Venezuela 430 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: who face torture and murder at the hands of the 431 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: regime for being that's an asylum seeker. People that are 432 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: coming from they come from one hundred and sixty countries. 433 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: They're coming from all over the world. A lot of 434 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: them are coming from Central American countries where they just 435 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: have a crappy economy. I mean, I get it, but 436 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: that's not the way we have a system. We don't 437 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: have the system set up to just take anybody once 438 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: a better economy. But Kevin, they're in a four star 439 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 1: hotel in Midtown Manhattan. They were told to move to 440 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: a government facility that is heated, free food, free healthcare, everything. 441 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: But it is not in Midtown Manhattan in a four 442 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 1: star hotel. It's like a big warehouse that's been converted 443 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: into being housing for and they're protesting outside saying we 444 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: refuse to go. We're staying in the four star hotel 445 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: at taxpayer expense. Yeah, that's not what refugees or asylum 446 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: seekers the same thing, basically. I mean, refugees are just 447 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: people that apply abroad. Meanwhile, a buddy of mine who's 448 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 1: engaged to a Canadian woman, she tried to get into 449 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: the country last week to meet up with us to 450 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: watch the movie. I Am going out right now, and 451 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: they wouldn't let her in, saying she's been coming here 452 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: too many times. What are you trying to do trying 453 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: to sneak into the country. And I'm going look at 454 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: the difference here. They have two hundred thousand a day 455 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: come across are a border and we're giving them all 456 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: this stuff. And I told I told my buddies that 457 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 1: tell your girlfriend to go down to Mexico, does come 458 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: across the border. I mean I said this about you know, 459 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: Novak Djokovic, the tennis player, is still not have to 460 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: come into the United States. He may not be able 461 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: to come in for the US Open. He's just won 462 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: the Australian as the best tennis player alive. I love 463 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: the revenge.

Look at all the people dying, 472 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: Look at all the athletes falling over. Nobody talks about this. 473 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 1: Hundreds percent higher average of death rate and heart problems 474 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: of people under thirty years of age. Why aren't we 475 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,679 Speaker 1: talking about that? But no, it's not the jab. But 476 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: take the jab again. I always have this challenge for people, 477 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: I say, I tell them, try to find somebody who 478 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: showed more disdain for Fauci earlier on than the pandemic 479 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: publicly than me. It's very hard to do. I absolutely 480 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: hate these people and I will not let go what 481 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: they did to the country.

I mean, you know, I sat with I 525 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: sat with Jimmy Woods for two hours in La Gosh. 526 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe a six months ago, you're a gun. 527 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: I can't even remember. And you know there's a as 528 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: a great actor, but he got Blackball basically, you know, 529 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: the last ten years, nobody will work with him because 530 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: it's a conservative and you know, you know that stories 531 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: with so many people out there. But you've done content 532 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: that has really worked outside of the you know, the 533 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: The God is Not Dead movie. I know you're working. 534 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: I want you to tell us about your latest project. Now, 535 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: why why is it so difficult to get you know, 536 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: there are daily wires try to make some movies. There 537 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: are some folks that are starting to get into this game. 538 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: Do we just do we not have the infrastructure. We 539 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: don't have that, we can't get the cash together. People 540 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: are too scared. To me, I'm not even talking about 541 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: making it like Reagan is the greatest President ever. Movie, right, 542 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: just good guys, bad guys, heroism, truth, justice, love, liberty. 543 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: Movies with those themes that aren't rooted in you know, 544 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: intersectional uh you know, pan genderism or whatever. Why is 545 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: it so hard to get that stuff done? I think 546 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: there's more out than you realize. And speaking of Reagan. 547 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: I did the Reagan movie that's gonna come out later 548 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: this year. Dennis Klay plays Reagan. I plays faster in it. 549 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: Are you say, movies done in the case, And that's 550 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: a lot. I didn't even know that. That's amazing. Well 551 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: see but that that's obviously that's I'm sure it's gonna 552 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: be great. But that's a polino, that's a political it's Reagan, 553 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I'm gonna see it. 554 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure it's fantastic. But Denis quick look is Dennis 555 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: quite a lot of us. He's uh. I think he's 556 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: more conservative than he'll admit to. I mean, okay, I'll 557 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: take that. I'll take I'll take even if they're not 558 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: at this point, Kevin, if they're not announcing their pronouns, 559 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: I feel like I can work with that. He's okay, 560 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 1: he's okay. Um, but no, but I you know, for me, 561 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: you've started probably about ten eleven years ago. I got 562 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: booted out, I got blackballed from from from Hollywood. My 563 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: am manager and agent many years that we can't work 564 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: here anymore. And I was like, wow, you guys are 565 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: one stream of intolerance. And it was really just because 566 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 1: I'm a conservative. It was simple as that it's actually 567 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: being worse. It's being it's worth being a Christian in Hollywood, 568 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: and it's being conservative. But they're both bad things. And 569 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: I still started Soorbo Studios and go to Soorbo Studios 570 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 1: dot com. And I started my wife, and I started 571 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: doing just a lot other movies that have more positive things. 572 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: We've done God's on that, what If let them be Light, 573 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: Soul Surfer, my latest movie, Left Behind Miracles Texas. I mean, 574 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: I've been doing a lot of movies a lot and 575 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: also a lot of documentaries that are more family friendly. 576 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: I get stopped. You used to be you being a 577 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: Hercules fan. I used to stop for all the time 578 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: because the Hercules or Andromeda, my second series that Gene 579 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: Ronberry created. But by far people stop me in out airports, 580 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: hotel lobby and say, I love the movies are doing. 581 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: We know Hollywood attacks you and everybody else out there 582 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: that creepos are attacking you, but keep making the movies 583 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: that you're making because we're behind you, and so I'm 584 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: gonna keep making movies that have a positive message, that 585 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: have a lot of hope, laughter, redemption, faith, whatever, and 586 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: keep doing movies that eighty million homes want that Hollywood 587 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: won't do. Yeah, you know, well, look, I think it's 588 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 1: more conservatives. I believe that there's been an awakening Kevin 589 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: where there's notion of the neutral space and oh it's 590 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: it's not just a profit motive that drives the other side. 591 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: We need to get rid of that, because I think 592 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: there there was there, and I know there was a 593 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: thinking among a lot of people on the right. Oh 594 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: well maybe they just don't think there's money to be 595 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: made it. No, no, no, they know there's money to 596 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: be made. Money. Yeah, they know there's money to be made. 597 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you look at you look at 598 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: the Passion of the Christ. You know, there have been 599 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: these movies at the left hated and it got so 600 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,679 Speaker 1: upset about and they've done incredibly well despite that. Um. 601 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: By the way, with I want to tell you this 602 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: with God is not dead. I remember, I remember it. 603 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: It was it was an amazing thing reading and I 604 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: can't I think it might have been in Slate or something, 605 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: but reading a review of that movie that made it 606 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: so clear. The reviewer it is like you shook him 607 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: to his satanic soul. The reviewer I've never seen so 608 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: much hatred about a movie that's you know why, it's 609 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: there's no there's nothing to hate. I mean, you know, 610 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: whether you think it's you know, The Godfather Part two 611 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: or not, I leave to the viewer. I mean a 612 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: lot of people loved it, but the but the it 613 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: was so clear the agenda of the reviewer was, you know, 614 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: this is basically saying it's the worst movie he's ever seen. 615 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: And I think that showed Kevin that you struck a nerve. 616 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: You are set two idealogues. You upset them with some 617 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: of these movies. They take it personally your movies. Isn't 618 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: it amazing that people get upset about something they don't 619 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: believe in? Yeah, so angry about a guy they don't 620 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: believe That two million dollars movie made one hundred and 621 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: forty million bucks. Pretty good return on two million, two 622 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: million dollars investment. And uh, it's it's it's I don't know. 623 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: I did a movie called Let the Light that I 624 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: directed and my wife wrote it along with Dan Gordon, 625 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: who's a coscar writer on Number the Writer. It was 626 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: funded by Sean Hannity. It had like a four month running. 627 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: Theaters did very well opening weekend. Here's a here's a 628 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: three million dollar movie up against a three hundred million 629 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: dollars Thor Ragnarock movie. Speaking of Thor, and we opened 630 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: number two per screen average. I get a call from 631 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: Netflix Monday after that opening weekend saying, hey, we know 632 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: that you got a foot, you know, solid foot in 633 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: this door of this inspirational world. We want to open 634 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: ends division here at Netflix. Well, they had a couple 635 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: of meetings with them over the next couple of months, 636 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: and they ultimately didn't do really anything. And it was 637 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: just weird to me because their ideology is so geared 638 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: and so so forced upon them. Because I know there 639 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: are people in that room that would have liked to 640 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: work with me. I know that because that I worked. 641 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: There's probably about ten people in the room. But they 642 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: got to be quiet, They got to toe the line 643 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: of the of the agenda. And I just said, you 644 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: got eighty million homes that want this, but your ideology 645 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: is so against people that are Christians. Why don't you 646 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: just let let's do the movies I got and TV 647 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: shows I got. I got wonderful scripts. You can laugh 648 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: all the way to the bank because they can scream 649 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: socialism only one. But let's face it, they're capitalists. They're 650 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: in the business to make money and keep their stockholders happy. 651 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: But they're going to play that game and pretend that that, oh, no, 652 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: we can't do that, because that's that's you know, that's 653 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: misinformation or something. So I'll tell you. Kevin m a 654 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: friend of mine out in LA is one of these 655 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: secret secret conservatives for one of the very very big studios. 656 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: He's an attorney, so he's not you know, he's not 657 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: involved in the production and stuff, but so he sees 658 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: all the deals, all the agreements, and he's often in 659 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: the room with the people who are green lighting these things. 660 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,719 Speaker 1: And of course I wanted to ask him about this, 661 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: right you know, I got the opportunity to sit down 662 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: with them in la and I was like, so, explaining 663 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: to me how this really goes? He goes, well, first 664 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: of all, you have to understand that the movie industry 665 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: now isn't just dominated by idealogues, but by identity politics, 666 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: whereby the people who are making a lot of these 667 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: decisions now are single, single, unmarried, childless women in their fifties, 668 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: people from marginalized groups, and people for whom it feels 669 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: deeply personal. However, you know it may be in that 670 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: into very personal that you know, whether it's their their 671 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: lifestyle or their decisions, or you know, some aspects of 672 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: their identity they feel is marginalized, whatever that means to them, 673 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: He says, you have to understand that's a big piece 674 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: of it, says, But the other piece of it is 675 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: that even for the guys and girls, men and women 676 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: who are trying to run these studios and you know 677 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: by studios now obviously Netflix and whatever, who want to 678 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: make money, you have to remember they want to make 679 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: money meeting they themselves, so they don't want to be 680 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: in a position where the Bolsheviks at Universal or whatever. 681 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: Now certainly this is true at Netflix Content or Amazon 682 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: Content decide to push out. If you're the head of 683 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: content or senior VP of development at one of these places, 684 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: you don't want to target on your back, right, So 685 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: that they explain to me that this factors into the 686 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: decision making. That people are trying to keep their jobs 687 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: within the machinery, and that means that they're not necessarily 688 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: making the they're making decisions not just based on what 689 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: would make them money for the overall enterprise, but what 690 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: will keep them from being the target of the woke 691 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: and getting them fired. Right, So it's kind of an 692 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: more individualized issue the woke world a cancel culture. I 693 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: was the first victim of cancel culture, I think, as 694 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: a Hollywood ten eleven years ago. But I think people 695 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: are getting tired of it. I'm getting tired of it. 696 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: You're tired of it. I mean, everybody's apparently these woke 697 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: people have led amazingly perfect lines and they have nothing 698 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 1: to be ashamed of for their past, but they're gonna 699 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: go after you know, people are gonna put in the 700 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: Supreme Court if they flirted with the girl back in 701 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: college thirty five years ago, We're gonna talk about that. 702 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's so silly. But we're doing 703 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: right now and people, I think people are sick of it. 704 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: If we gave you one hundred million dollars to make 705 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: a movie, Kevin, I mean to your point, yes, God 706 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: is not to add two million to one hundred and 707 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: forty million. So clearly, you know, good content and content 708 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: people want can win out. But let's say we gave 709 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: you like one hundred million dollars to me, is there 710 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: a project that you know you would want to do. 711 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: Like if you if you had the budget to go 712 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: big with it, is there a story or something in mind? 713 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: You're you're giving me an awfully big budget. But I 714 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: mean with that one hundred million dollars, I would make 715 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: probably twenty five really good movies, and twenty for sure 716 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: because I want to carry over some of that into 717 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: P and A in advertising. But I could make a lot. 718 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: I've got the script, trust me. So you've got great movies. 719 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: They're already stacked up. That five million a movie would 720 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: get a DOT Oh yeah, oh yeah. My movies are 721 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: in the three or four million range. That's catering budget. 722 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: And Pirates of the Caribbean. Yeah, those are three hundred 723 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: million dollars movies. You mentioned Yellowstone, um Neil McDonough as 724 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: the actor in my movie Left Behind, rising the anti 725 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: Chris right now. When Neil was in season four last season, Well, 726 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: he's got a scripty gaming of Western that's unbelievable, and 727 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: it's the it's in the violence range of Yellowstone, but 728 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: it's set in the eighteen sixties and it's a can 729 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: Enables story, so there is a faith element to it, 730 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: but the violence is still there because I don't want 731 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: to do movies that preach to the choir I want. 732 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: I want to do movies that people want to come 733 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 1: in to see, but the message is still going to 734 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: sneak in there. That's about you know, being positive and 735 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: morality and things like that. Because Hollywood doesn't want to 736 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: do that.

What Hollywood has been doing since I 761 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: was a little kid, is you know, pushing you know, 762 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: violence and lots of nudity to get people to watch, 763 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: you know, sort of hit that lizard part of the brain. 764 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:10,280 Speaker 1: And then also a nihilism, anti god, anti traditionalism, anti 765 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: anti heroism, and even the big budget Hollywood movies that 766 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,240 Speaker 1: used to be made, there were good guys and bad guys. 767 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: There was a clear morality. I mean now it's like 768 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: when the Oscars come out every year, everyone just sort 769 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: of laughs, we go, what are these movies that we're 770 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: supposed to like, no one's seen these things well and 771 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: their ratings for that and the Oscars and the Golden Globes. 772 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: They go down every year. But I don't think Hollywood cares. 773 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: I think they're all they like the path themselves on 774 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: the back and it's just a party for themselves. But 775 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: their ratings are tanking more and more and more people 776 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: are saying enough, I don't need to see this crap anymore. 777 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: You ever worked, because it used to be a big thing. 778 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: You ever worked at?

He lived in 784 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: the same area I didn't in California, Westlake Village Styles 785 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: in Oaks Harry. He still lives out in that area. Um, 786 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: but uh, you know, I don't see him that often anymore. 787 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: I did have a text message from just like just 788 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: a week ago actually speaking of it. But you know, 789 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: we know each other, but we're not like buddy buddies 790 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: to hang out.

I think at one 798 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 1: point that was the highest ROI rated our movie of 799 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: all time. But on a percentage case, yeah, I think 800 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: it was about a twenty times return. But you know, 801 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,800 Speaker 1: on on on God's Not Dead, we had a seventy 802 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: times return.

Now I'm going I could have made two 818 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: movies of that. Not only would have got about twenty 819 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 1: percent back on your money, but you would have owned 820 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: fifty percent of that movie forever. And that would have 821 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,720 Speaker 1: been a movie out there that has a positive influence 822 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: some people instead of a Hollywood's negative. But I don't 823 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: think these guys understand the cultural war that's going on. 824 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: Andrew Breitbart did, right, Yeah, I see. I think that. 825 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: I think that it hasn't changed Kevin, but I do 826 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: think it's in the beginnings of change because, for example, 827 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: what we've seen with Twitter, right, and credit to Elon 828 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: for just charging up that hill with all the lunatic 829 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: shrieking Adam and all the pressure that he's under. And 830 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: he's not a right wing guy at all. I mean, 831 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: he's just kind of a rationalist. I mean he's sort 832 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: of a little bit of this, a little bit of that. 833 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: But Twitter became a left wing hellscape of lies, distortions 834 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: and suppression. And what I think people who pay attention 835 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: realize is, guess what that's also happening at Facebook, at TikTok, 836 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: at Instagram, everywhere, all these places that's going on. We 837 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: are not going to win. We're not going to be 838 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: arguing about what the marginal tax rate is in fifteen 839 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 1: or twenty years. If all of our kids and everyone's 840 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: being programmed by the far left in a way that 841 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: blows away what you know CBS News could accomplish back 842 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 1: in the seventies, right, I mean, this is a whole 843 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: This is all day long. People. People's kids are spending 844 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 1: more time with these screens than they are with their parents. 845 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,959 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, there's there's no question about that. But look, 846 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm like I said earlier, I'm just wanting to keep 847 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: doing the movies I'm doing.
