Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everybody back by popular demand.
Speaker 1: Matthew Marsden of The Matthew Marsden Show. Some people are
Speaker 1: saying the greatest export of the United Kingdom probably all time,
Speaker 1: even better than Elton John. Some people say he is
Speaker 1: joining us. Now, what's going on?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 1: How are you?
Speaker 2: I'm good mate, Yeah, yeah, better than Elton John. That's yeah,
Speaker 2: that's quite something.
Speaker 1: I believe it's Sir Elton John, Sir Elton John. But yes,
Speaker 1: probably true Elton John.
Speaker 2: Elton John.
Speaker 1: Well, You're Trump is better than mine. I'm impressed here.
Speaker 1: Trump is very good. So speaking of the UK and exports,
Speaker 1: looks like they're trying to import fascism. Kind of a
Speaker 1: rough turn there, You get what I'm saying. Though, I've
Speaker 1: seen ever since the jd Vance speech, everybody has been
Speaker 1: looking around at what's going on in Europe a little
Speaker 1: bit more and hearing these bureaucrats say that you can
Speaker 1: get arrested for saying mean things online. And this is
Speaker 1: a real I keep thinking that people in the US
Speaker 1: refuse to I keep coming across rather people in the
Speaker 1: US who refuse to believe this is a real thing.
Speaker 1: Right Like in the UK, Oh, if you say mean
Speaker 1: things about migrants in particular, they'll show up and they'll
Speaker 1: arrest you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's it's it's absolutely shocking. I mean,
Speaker 3: but when I was growing up ware where's growing up?
Speaker 3: I mean, my you know, my uncles were cops, and
Speaker 3: the police that the the the cops there have just
Speaker 3: become an absolute joke, you know. I mean, like I
Speaker 3: was literally talking to someone the other n They're saying, now,
Speaker 3: if something happens to you, they have to you have
Speaker 3: to email them, right literally, you can't call them anymore,
Speaker 3: you have to email them. And I didn't realize, I mean,
Speaker 3: when I first came to America, I realized that I
Speaker 3: wasn't free. Right in the UK, I thought that I was,
Speaker 3: but it was an illusion of freedom. And since Starmer's
Speaker 3: got in, he has gone all on Stazi, like you
Speaker 3: cannot say anything. It's like, you know, it's a charm
Speaker 3: and seah if you say something such feel our fans
Speaker 3: the other parts and then she must go to jail.
Speaker 2: And it's like it's unbelievable. What's going on in Europe.
Speaker 3: But what's worse is actually it's not just the fact
Speaker 3: that they are coming after people literally for memes right
Speaker 3: as you said, they are trying to stop people even.
Speaker 2: Thinking those things. This is the weird thing.
Speaker 3: It's it's so weird, and it's just accelerated massively with.
Speaker 1: Starma is there is there push see and for people
Speaker 1: who say, because I get this, sometimes even the radio,
Speaker 1: why are we talking about Europe, We've problemsed you in
Speaker 1: America Because exactly what they are doing in Europe is
Speaker 1: what the Democrat Party wants to do here. And I
Speaker 1: think it's important for people to see that. You know,
Speaker 1: if Chuck could lock you up as an American for saying,
Speaker 1: you know that you don't want millions of illegals pouring
Speaker 1: into the country, he would do it. I mean, Kamala
Speaker 1: would definitely do it. Like these are people who would
Speaker 1: use the force of that. We saw it during COVID too.
Speaker 1: There's no question during member during COVID, if you if
Speaker 1: you gathered to protest the idiotic restrictions and face masks,
Speaker 1: it was you were a public health danger. But if
Speaker 1: you wanted to pray to Saint George Floyd, the hardened
Speaker 1: felon who died in an interaction with a police officer.
Speaker 1: Then that was okay. So we all know that the
Speaker 1: fascist impulse or the authoritarian impulse, same thing, very alive
Speaker 1: and well here. But I do think that, I mean,
Speaker 1: you're thinking about the Germans. I'm sure you saw in
Speaker 1: sixty minutes they do this, like the Germans common They
Speaker 1: knocked like, have you been sharing some memes? And if
Speaker 1: the answer is yes, if you've been sharing memes that
Speaker 1: they that they did decide are too nasty, film find
Speaker 1: you and maybe even put you in prison. I always
Speaker 1: say to people too, it's not like they always think
Speaker 1: this makes them the nice people. And I have to
Speaker 1: mind everybody. The people that are okay with this are
Speaker 1: sending men with guns paid by this state to take
Speaker 1: away your freedom or shoot you. Because that's what actual
Speaker 1: arrest means. It's if you do what I say, or
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hurt you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you're right. It's like you must not
Speaker 2: say it's a SATISFI and it's fat us. You'll go
Speaker 2: to the Gulag, you know, I mean.
Speaker 1: It's you're mixing culture Germans Russian Gulag. You're mixing the culture.
Speaker 1: But I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying.
Speaker 1: You're doing you're doing well.
Speaker 2: But but you know, I mean, look, it's Europe has fallen.
Speaker 3: I mean, I was watching a Jdvan speech, which is
Speaker 3: probably the greatest vice president speech.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was amazing, it was incredible.
Speaker 3: Just I was saying to my Shawlight, the way that
Speaker 3: it was written was brilliant. It was brilliantly written, brilliantly delivered,
Speaker 3: and he just stands there like, I have no fs
Speaker 3: to give now. I'm just telling you the way it is.
Speaker 3: And the thing is, I had a friend of mine.
Speaker 3: I got a friend of mine who I grew up with,
Speaker 3: and I grew up on the wrong side of the tracks.
Speaker 3: I grew up in a very poor, poor environment.
Speaker 1: Where it was give me a little more of the buy.
Speaker 1: Where in the UK? Where was this?
Speaker 3: So I literally come from Mordor like where Tolkien based
Speaker 3: Mordor on.
Speaker 1: I come from what's it called?
Speaker 3: So it's in the Midlands. It's it's a place called
Speaker 3: West Bromwich. So if you are you a fan of
Speaker 3: like heavy metal music, do you like heavy metal music?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean, like, like I know some of it, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I wouldn't say I'm an aficionado,
Speaker 1: but I'm familiar.
Speaker 2: So I come from where Judas Priest comes from.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know Judas Priest. Okay, yeah, I thought
Speaker 1: we were going to get like obscure here. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now they're like literally lived across the street from where
Speaker 3: I grew up.
Speaker 2: So it was rough. But but my friend who was.
Speaker 3: A Granadier guarde for years, he texted me the other
Speaker 3: day and he was like.
Speaker 2: Did you see jd Vance's speech? It's awesome.
Speaker 3: So what you've got and this is it's really important
Speaker 3: from Americans to understand because I think that we kind
Speaker 3: of like look especially for the English speaking countries, and
Speaker 3: think that they're the same. Right, like Oscuar said, we're
Speaker 3: two countries separated by a common language. It's not true.
Speaker 3: Americans still have the frontiersman spirit. They still have that
Speaker 3: rebellious attitude, like you're not going to tell me what
Speaker 3: to do. And a lot of that comes from the
Speaker 3: fact that you can go outside and you can still
Speaker 3: get eaten by an animal, right that that does not
Speaker 3: happen in Europe. And so, but there are people over
Speaker 3: there Europe. Is that for whatever the people want to
Speaker 3: say in the mainstream media, it's worse over there, buck
Speaker 3: like they've got no alternative media.
Speaker 2: They are looking to America saying save us.
Speaker 1: So if you're if you're there, if you're like like
Speaker 1: some like burly British guy from what hole? Right, they're
Speaker 1: tough guys from hole? Is that is that right? That area?
Speaker 1: I'm right from the north and I'm like, you know,
Speaker 1: did we do all the familiar? Do you are those
Speaker 1: guys okay? With all like the DEI training and this,
Speaker 1: you know, you see what I mean? Like because in
Speaker 1: this country, yes, half the country believes in this, in
Speaker 1: this secular idea, that this secular religion of madness that
Speaker 1: is this modern democrat amalgamation, wokeness whatever. But in the UK,
Speaker 1: but half of us think that they're insane, right, you're
Speaker 1: telling me that half doesn't exist in the UK. Really,
Speaker 1: Like there's not actually a robust, large opposition party who's
Speaker 1: saying things like, yeah, we need to be able to
Speaker 1: say things that offend people, even people who are immigrants,
Speaker 1: even people who are non white and that's just the
Speaker 1: way it's gonna be, because that's what freedom means.
Speaker 3: That there are people that think it there's not a
Speaker 3: real party. So I think that what you have it's
Speaker 3: slightly different there, because what you have is you have
Speaker 3: like Generation X, like Generation X and older. That's the
Speaker 3: football hooligan generation. So literally we would go and watch
Speaker 3: the soccer every week and there would be fights right
Speaker 3: every weekend between the different two soccer teams, and it
Speaker 3: was just you just used to happen.
Speaker 2: And that was kind of the way.
Speaker 3: That that that generation would kind of like get out
Speaker 3: that aggression, the depression or whatever it was living in
Speaker 3: a crappy area and they would do that. And that
Speaker 3: was gradually phased out over the years, right to make
Speaker 3: it it's more like I'm going to go and eat
Speaker 3: my prawn sandwich at the football now, right. But there's
Speaker 3: still an entire generation of people out there that love
Speaker 3: a good fight, right in all honesty that they're they're
Speaker 3: a little bit more in the if they're in America,
Speaker 3: they would be they go hunting, if you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like they'd have a way of being able
Speaker 3: to express themselves as men right and over there it's
Speaker 3: like what are you going to do? You get into
Speaker 3: a fight? Right, And I know that might sound really reductive,
Speaker 3: but it's true. So what you've got is you've got
Speaker 3: a bunch of people out there now it's the Generation X.
Speaker 2: Actually, the youngsters kind of like here, like.
Speaker 3: The youngsters right now in America are becoming the most
Speaker 3: conservative of it for a very very long time. Right, yeah,
Speaker 3: But what you have, you've got like the kind of
Speaker 3: rough and ready guys that kind of grew up in
Speaker 3: Thatchers Britain that we're told, like Reagan, you can go
Speaker 3: and achieve whatever you want, and they did, and they're like,
Speaker 3: hang on a second, we don't like this, we don't
Speaker 3: like what's going on. But then you've got another group.
Speaker 3: I'd say the other half are like la la la
Speaker 3: la la la la la. I don't want to accept it.
Speaker 3: So it's not quite the same as here. It's not
Speaker 3: quite that they're they're always in the UK. They're a
Speaker 3: little bit.
Speaker 2: To the right center and a little bit to the
Speaker 2: left of the center.
Speaker 3: Right, there's not like the big swings like we have here.
Speaker 3: So I think you've got an elite that is pushing
Speaker 3: the agenda.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, no, go ahead.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like we've seen with the USA, you've got an elite.
Speaker 3: But then you've got a bunch of people that really
Speaker 3: hate it, and a bunch of people that just don't
Speaker 3: want to don't want to admit that it exists.
Speaker 1: Right. What's funny because I think we talked I think
Speaker 1: we talked about this, But I went to Scotland and
Speaker 1: my wife on vacation two years ago in the summer,
Speaker 1: and and you know, Americans have this very our view,
Speaker 1: you know, the same way that I think foreigners sometimes
Speaker 1: have a cartoonish view of Well, America is so big
Speaker 1: and there's so many different regions and cultures that you know,
Speaker 1: it's hard even for Americans to kind of understand the
Speaker 1: full scope of like what what's going on here? But
Speaker 1: foreigners do come here and they're just like, oh, it's
Speaker 1: just all like cheeseburgers and everyone weighs six hundred pounds
Speaker 1: and goes to six Flags, great adventure. We have a
Speaker 1: little bit of that, I think as Americans would it
Speaker 1: comes to Scotland though, because we think brave heart, bagpipes
Speaker 1: and like whiskey, right, like that's kind of our and
Speaker 1: and but it's a beautiful country, Like I love it.
Speaker 1: I thought it was amazing as a place to visit.
Speaker 1: But they're communists basically, I mean they're they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's like a socialist country effectively in terms of what
Speaker 1: their beliefs are and their healthcare system. I know there,
Speaker 1: you know, are they under the NHS. Are they different
Speaker 1: the NHS.
Speaker 2: Yeah they are.
Speaker 1: They're under the NHS, They're on the NHS. So so
Speaker 1: this whole there is no you mentioned the frontier spirit
Speaker 1: like we would think of like the Highlanders. The Highlanders
Speaker 1: is like for the tourists, like the real Highlanders that
Speaker 1: the people live up there are like where's my where's
Speaker 1: my socialized medicine and my free stuff? It's a little depressing.
Speaker 1: I was like, this isn't what I thought. There's no
Speaker 1: there's no William Wallace running around here. There's no spirit
Speaker 1: of William Wallace. So a little bit of you, like.
Speaker 2: Bell Gibson's full of crap, it's not the way. No.
Speaker 3: But you know, the funny thing is, Buck, it's actually
Speaker 3: like the old working class and actually the newer working class,
Speaker 3: but the old working class that grew up, as I said,
Speaker 3: in Faches Britain, that actually made something of themselves that
Speaker 3: they were taught, they were told, listen, you go out there,
Speaker 3: you can do something, you can make something of yourself,
Speaker 3: Like they are the more edgy and the aristocracy and
Speaker 3: the more middle class that kind of like inherited them money.
Speaker 3: They're the socialists, right, they're the ones that are you know, oh,
Speaker 3: you know, we've got to let them in.
Speaker 2: I mean literal but yeah.
Speaker 1: A soft generation.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's very soft. And I mean, look, I
Speaker 3: was talking to someone that in near where I come from.
Speaker 3: It is a place called Warsaw and wlsa double L, right, Walsall,
Speaker 3: And they've been bringing all these migrants, migrants in. I
Speaker 3: hate the words illegal aliens because we all know that
Speaker 3: it's a trojan horse, right. The asylum seeker is just bullshit,
Speaker 3: It's not true. It's a trojan horse. So they they
Speaker 3: were bringing them into a local hotel there, and somebody
Speaker 3: that I know was like, you can't walk down the streets.
Speaker 3: They're just hanging around outside the hotel. People got to
Speaker 3: understand that this is what they're doing with their phones
Speaker 3: and whatever, standing outside the hotel. And I said, isn't
Speaker 3: that like dangerous? Like is that like an goo area?
Speaker 2: Literally?
Speaker 3: The next week, a girl that worked at the hotel,
Speaker 3: she had an argument with one of the migrants about
Speaker 3: something that he was by from the snack shop, you know,
Speaker 3: because I think they have like you know, when you
Speaker 3: go into the miss Westerns whatever, help this out and
Speaker 3: you pick it and then you take it it, followed
Speaker 3: it to the train station, stabbed it to death, and
Speaker 3: I'm like, guys, wake up. These our societies are just
Speaker 3: not compatible. They're just not compatible.
Speaker 1: If you if you say that stuff, and if you
Speaker 1: say that stuff in Germany they lock you up. Hold
Speaker 1: on one second here, we'll come back to this. I
Speaker 1: actually want to talk to you about about Elon and
Speaker 1: the government waste in a second. I agree with you,
Speaker 1: by the way, in the on the social compatibility or
Speaker 1: lack thereof of different cultures. This is this is really
Speaker 1: the This is where the tectonic plates of civilization are
Speaker 1: rubbing and creating friction and earthquakes, and it's it's not good.
Speaker 1: Last week's report on the inflation figures, we're not good,
Speaker 1: my friends. Uh, And it looks like inflation is here
Speaker 1: to stay in the US. Sorry, we're talking a lot
Speaker 1: about Britain, but stay in the US for a while.
Speaker 1: So what can you do because your dollars are going
Speaker 1: to be worth less. Birch Gold, my friends, gold is
Speaker 1: the answer for so many people who want to make
Speaker 1: a smart decision and prepare for the likelihood of continued
Speaker 1: inflation and the debt piling up. I trust Birch Gold.
Speaker 1: There's the same company that's released a new study of
Speaker 1: how gold prices are going to fare in Trump's presidency,

Speaker 1: There's no obligation, only information, all right now, Elon, the
Speaker 1: stuff that's coming out here is wild, and I keep
Speaker 1: needing to take a moment to say, hold on, Elon.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Elon's a genius. I think that's
Speaker 1: fair to say Elon's a genius, especially in this area
Speaker 1: of efficiency and problem solving at the highest level for
Speaker 1: large organizations like he. Just this is as good at this,
Speaker 1: if not the best at this in the world. There's
Speaker 1: stuff coming out that's just insane though. I mean, you're
Speaker 1: talking about I'm trying to pull some of this stuff
Speaker 1: up as I'm talking to you, because the numbers. To me,
Speaker 1: you sit here and you go, how is it possible
Speaker 1: that I mean, for example, there are three hundred and
Speaker 1: ninety million social security numbers that are active in this country.
Speaker 1: There's three hundred and thirty million people. It's not like
Speaker 1: we got a million extra. We got sixty million extra
Speaker 1: in the system somehow, and they can't figure this out.
Speaker 1: That doesn't that doesn't inspire confidence.
Speaker 3: Well, you know what as well, they've got like one
Speaker 3: person who is three hundred and forty nine years old.
Speaker 2: I mean, you can't make it up. There's not even
Speaker 2: like they didn't even.
Speaker 3: Stop and say, like, you know, when you go and
Speaker 3: get your drive in you driving tests, you're driving license,
Speaker 3: They're like, well, you know, you're sixty five now you
Speaker 3: should probably go and get your eyes tested, like somebody's
Speaker 3: out there, like count Dracula, take in curity. I was
Speaker 3: just wondering about do you think that this is these
Speaker 3: are such security numbers that they've given to illegals, and
Speaker 3: they're just like Okay, just take them because they do
Speaker 3: have them.
Speaker 2: Do you think that's what it is or do you
Speaker 2: think they just scam in the system. No.
Speaker 1: I think that there's a I don't know what the
Speaker 1: portion is. I think there are millions of fraudulent social
Speaker 1: Security numbers in the system because of illegals. I mean
Speaker 1: I know that that I that uh, social security fraud
Speaker 1: in that sense, right, like having a fake soci Security
Speaker 1: number or it's identity fraud or document fraud. I know
Speaker 1: that that happens in large numbers with illegal immigrants. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I've got to think you know, with legal aliens, we're
Speaker 1: allowed to say that. Again, by the way, it was
Speaker 1: the legal term for my entire life until Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: So I think that's I think that's a part of it.
Speaker 1: But this stuff is is crazy. I mean when when
Speaker 1: you're talking about uh, and the thing is, I just
Speaker 1: want to I want all to be verified because I
Speaker 1: don't want to start saying numbers that. But here's something
Speaker 1: I tell everybody, Uh, Matthew, it has long been understood
Speaker 1: that Medicare fraud. Just Medicare, which is a huge program,
Speaker 1: but it's only one thing, the estimate, and no one
Speaker 1: has ever like said this is crazy, just agrees with
Speaker 1: the estimate of Medicare fraud in the United States yearly
Speaker 1: is sixty to eighty billion dollars. Now that's what they
Speaker 1: were willing to tell us about, and just sort of
Speaker 1: cost of business, like, oh, it's sixty eight eighty billion
Speaker 1: a year. I think Elon's gonna find Medicare fraud is
Speaker 1: actually two to three times that, which would mean that
Speaker 1: you're talking about at least one hundred billion plus maybe
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty billion of Medicare fraud, which is
Speaker 1: stunning that that's and that's money that the taxpayers are sending,
Speaker 1: not just to American you know, doctors who aren't actually
Speaker 1: doing the procedures and stuff. That's one way they're sending
Speaker 1: it to like random medical consortiums overseas because they have
Speaker 1: you know, it's an overseas bank account. They don't even
Speaker 1: they're not even doctors like, they don't. It's just a scam.
Speaker 1: All things are scam now, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, it's it's You've got to wonder, haven't you. I Mean,
Speaker 3: you know, we've been gas lit so much.
Speaker 2: By the Left you have to look and say, well,
Speaker 2: I'm on a second.
Speaker 3: Like why, why does any politician, Why is any politician
Speaker 3: upset with the fact that Elon Musk is cutting waste?
Speaker 1: Like how is that a.
Speaker 2: Winning argument for the left? Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know he's found that we're giving like fifty
Speaker 3: million dollars to study shrimps.
Speaker 2: On a treadmill. I mean, and people can't afford their groceries.
Speaker 2: It's it's just dumb.
Speaker 3: So I think that what we're seeing is, you know,
Speaker 3: it's it's really an amazing time to be alive, actually,
Speaker 3: because we're going to see the corruption and we're going
Speaker 3: to see why people are behaving in this illogical manner.
Speaker 2: Right, because if I'm on the right, if I'm on.
Speaker 3: The right or I'm on the left, and someone uncovers fraud,
Speaker 3: I'm going to be happy about it.
Speaker 2: Right, you'd think that.
Speaker 3: But it's only one and right now, and I do
Speaker 3: want to preface this with this buck is right now,
Speaker 3: it's only the left.
Speaker 2: They're not the only.
Speaker 3: Ones on the take right, Let's be completely clear about this. Right,
Speaker 3: they're not the only ones. And I'm all for it,
Speaker 3: like expose more and I think it's the greatest advertisement
Speaker 3: for small government that you will ever see. Like these
Speaker 3: budgets need to come in. They need to be locally controlled, right.
Speaker 3: We need to be looking at what we're spending, just
Speaker 3: even in our own cities, in our own you know,
Speaker 3: municipal areas, and then it should go out like that
Speaker 3: from there, and the government, you know, should just be out.
Speaker 2: Of all of it.
Speaker 1: I agree, and I think that we're going to find
Speaker 1: out some very interesting stuff from the all of the
Speaker 1: efforts of DOGE. Also want to tell everybody out there

Speaker 1: He's got a cool accent and you'll remember him from
Speaker 1: Blackhawk Down, which is I still think a top ten,
Speaker 1: maybe even top five, all time war movie for me.
Speaker 1: So that's a pretty cool, pretty cool thing about movies. Though,
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you this, there's been a cultural
Speaker 1: shift in corporate America where they're no longer you're spitting
Speaker 1: in the face of half the country and saying what
Speaker 1: are you going to do about it? Companies are now like, hey, like,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe we shouldn't, you know, hate on one hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty million people or something like that. So is
Speaker 1: this going to affect the more creative industries? You think,
Speaker 1: as in, can we just get some TV series that
Speaker 1: aren't like woke trash being made by Netflix, Amazon, et cetera.
Speaker 1: Or is that just am I hoping for too much
Speaker 1: even in the Trump era.
Speaker 3: No, I think, by the way, I do have a
Speaker 3: back creek up as well, so I just wanted to
Speaker 3: we go good man, I do have one. I think
Speaker 3: that there will be a pushback just because Hollywood loves
Speaker 3: money and they're not making it. In fact, they're losing
Speaker 3: a hand over fist. I mean what you're seeing with
Speaker 3: you know, Captain America, it's going to lose a ton
Speaker 3: of money, which it shouldn't really, I mean, it shouldn't
Speaker 3: lose a ton of money, but the whole concept was terrible.
Speaker 2: They've they've probably sunk like three hundred odd million into it.
Speaker 2: But I think that that what you're not going to find.
Speaker 3: You saw it in the bafters right like you saw
Speaker 3: it with the bafters yesterday, and they were all like, oh,
Speaker 3: try And the funny thing was everyone's like, you guys
Speaker 3: are irrelevant and boring. You're seeing that there's a transgender
Speaker 3: I don't know how you break it up, but going
Speaker 3: for the Oscar for Best Actress. So it's it's deeply
Speaker 3: ingrained in the actual people like the actors, but there
Speaker 3: are a lot of people like like, you know, someone
Speaker 3: like Jerry brookhim and I was out to make a
Speaker 3: great film, and I was there to make a great
Speaker 3: TV show.
Speaker 2: You know, Michael Bay, same thing. And they're not woke
Speaker 2: at all.
Speaker 3: So if the studio decides to change course, then they
Speaker 3: have all the facilities and the ability to do it.
Speaker 2: What I would like to see, buck is the people
Speaker 2: that have been ostracized the industry, like me, that have actually.
Speaker 3: Been in the industry and done stuff, create things outside
Speaker 3: because we need to be able. We can't go through
Speaker 3: it's going to be cyclical again, right, Like we need
Speaker 3: to start curating the arts. It's really really important because
Speaker 3: after Ronald Reagan, you know, Ronald Reagan one, from then on,
Speaker 3: we started losing the culture war and that was a
Speaker 3: massive mistake. And it's still really difficult. I mean, you're
Speaker 3: here right, you're here on media right now. This is
Speaker 3: the new media. New media changed the landscape for Donald
Speaker 3: Trump and allowed him to win the election.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: It really did help because everyone's tuning out of regular
Speaker 3: you know, mainstream media. But there's an opportunity now for
Speaker 3: us to invest in like us solved farts now to
Speaker 3: mentor the younger generation to create things outside of the
Speaker 3: studio system.
Speaker 2: We don't need them anymore. We have all the great stories.
Speaker 3: So I think what I would like to do is
Speaker 3: see more of a focus on conservatives funding stuff outside,
Speaker 3: but not like this is a Christian movie, right. I
Speaker 3: want to see like the Roy Benavidez story. That's what
Speaker 3: I want to see. I want to see like that
Speaker 3: you know they did Midway, right. These are the movies
Speaker 3: that we can do, but we have a very small
Speaker 3: window of opportunity because people like Mel Gibson, who's clearly
Speaker 3: a genius still on all those guys, they're getting older.
Speaker 3: So we need to be able to start funding these
Speaker 3: projects and then conservatives.
Speaker 2: Will come to them.
Speaker 3: And again, like you mentioned earlier about Europe, it's really important.
Speaker 2: I grew up loving Rocky and Rambo. I grew up
Speaker 2: loving Rocky and Rambo. Rocky was the.
Speaker 3: Movie that said to me, as a working class kid,
Speaker 3: if you work hard enough, you can make it. And
Speaker 3: that is a message that goes all the way across
Speaker 3: the world, and if you think about it, but there
Speaker 3: wasn't from two thousand after Week.
Speaker 2: Came out with Black Hawk Down Yeah, was the pro
Speaker 2: military movie for ten years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, it's remarkably you think about it. My
Speaker 1: wife and I talk about this, We say, hey, bandon
Speaker 1: Brothers as I think one of the best TV shows
Speaker 1: ever made. I mean, at least for me, Like, I
Speaker 1: just found it so engrossing, enjoyable, you know, everything you
Speaker 1: want in a series. It's like, why not make more
Speaker 1: series like that?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be the same. It looks even
Speaker 1: the same war, the same period. I'm just saying, you
Speaker 1: know about men at arms, you know, make it realistic,
Speaker 1: make the characters come to life, make it seem you know,
Speaker 1: make it seem like it all matters. And instead, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just amazing. You go through Netflix, what is all
Speaker 1: this trash they're making. They're just making crash all the time.
Speaker 1: So I hope that all changes, and I hope you're
Speaker 1: involved in some of it, mister Matthew Marsden. Always a pleasure, sir.
Speaker 1: Good to see you and we will talk soon.
Speaker 2: You got it, buddy, Thanks for having me.
