And 56 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 4: it was a beautiful ceremony, both getting on and getting off. 57 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: And JD came. 58 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 4: Back and talked with us, and he spent most of 59 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 4: his time with Erica and just clapped, hugged us all he. 60 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 6: Is he is genuinely I want to say this about 61 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 6: the Vice president. He's been genuinely interested in individuals. And 62 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 6: this is the same thing with Charlie. This is the 63 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 6: same thing with President Trump, to be very point blank, 64 00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 6: is very interested in individuals and his his touch, his 65 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 6: warm touch, on this of making sure that Charlie was 66 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 6: honored the way that he deserved to be honored is 67 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 6: never going to be forgotten. It's never going to be 68 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 6: forgotten by this team, it's never going to be forgotten 69 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 6: by the conservative movement, by obviously the entire Turning Point family. 70 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 6: But that is that is such a testament to our 71 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 6: Vice President's character because it's just as easy to say. 72 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: We can't. 73 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 4: And you got to understand JD's hurting too. JD loved 74 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 4: Charlie as a brother and as a friend. They talked 75 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 4: almost I really mean this, probably on text at least 76 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 4: almost every day, if not every day. And JD was strong, 77 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 4: he understood the moment was probably not his moment to grieve. 78 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 4: He's grieving in private, and he was there and he 79 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 4: was strong and sure was strong, and yeah, I just 80 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 4: I love I love him for it, and there's a 81 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 4: lot to love about you. But that was a really amazing, 82 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: really amazing moment. And for our members, and by the way, 83 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 4: thank you, Jack.

We 112 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 5: see all the information that's coming in about the suspect. 113 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 5: We've even got stuff that hasn't been put out yet, 114 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 5: and we just there'll be a time for that, and 115 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 5: we know there will be a time for that, there 116 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 5: will be justice for Charlie Kirk. 117 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 7: But that's that's not what we're doing right now. That's 118 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 7: all I'm saying. 119 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 6: Can I share one more thing that I saw that 120 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 6: was a frequent thing that was really touching. We have, 121 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 6: of course, tons of people who've worked for us, tons 122 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 6: of people who have worked with us alongside us that 123 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 6: have helped build Turning Point into what it is today. 124 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 6: But so many people, even people who you know, again, 125 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 6: there are people who aren't always that don't always agree 126 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 6: with every single thing that comes out of Turning Point. 127 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 3: I think this is really important. 128 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 6: But their life was dramatically changed because of Turning Point, 129 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 6: and they had met their spouses. The one common thing 130 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 6: I saw was people reaching out to me, Saint Tyler. 131 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 6: I've always had this unbelievable respect for Charlie and for 132 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 6: Turning Point because it changed my life for the better. 133 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 6: I found my spouse, I have my kids because of 134 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 6: Turning Point. For so many stories and that consistent message 135 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 6: that Charlie gave about the family and building your family 136 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 6: and everything else reinforced all of that. And so so 137 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 6: many people are like almost coming back home because they're like, oh, 138 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 6: you know, I didn't always agree with Trump or like 139 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 6: Trump or whatever, and or I didn't like X, Y 140 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 6: and Z, and now they're on they're on the team, 141 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 6: and it was because Charlie they stuck with it. And listen, 142 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 6: they're like, yeah, actually, you know what, this is the 143 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 6: life I want to lived. My family is important, my 144 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 6: religion is important. Christ being the center of my life 145 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 6: is important, what Charlie said. And so it's been really 146 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 6: a beautiful, actually honestly a miraculous thing to watch as 147 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 6: these people come back who I haven't heard from for 148 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 6: almost ten years. Maybe they have said, hey, this is 149 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 6: how much this has impacted and changed my life, and 150 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 6: you know, and some of some of those people saying 151 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 6: I'm sorry I didn't say something before and that was 152 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 6: because of Charlie. 153 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 8: And what do you built it, Blake? I just, you know, 154 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 8: I keep thinking about. There's a there's a poem that's 155 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 8: a favorite of mine. It's from It's a it's a 156 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 8: poem during It was written during World War One by 157 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 8: Laurence Binyon. It's titled for the Fallen and it was 158 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 8: about the men they lost in World War One. And 159 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 8: I think about just a few lines from it and 160 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 8: about and about Charlie. They went with songs to the battle. 161 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 8: They were young, straight of limb, true of eye, steady 162 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 8: and a glow. They were staunched to the end against 163 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 8: odds uncounted. They fell with their faces to the foe. 164 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 8: They shall not grow old, as we that are left 165 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 8: grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemned. 166 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 8: At the going down of the sun. And in the 167 00:10:54,880 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 8: morning we will remember them. And that's how Charlie will 168 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 8: always be for us. All of us are going to 169 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 8: grow old, all of us are going to die, but 170 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 8: Charlie will forever be how he was on September tenth. 171 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 2: The brave strong. 172 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 3: Out there. 173 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: Could be like that forever. 174 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 7: The end of that one is well said. 175 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 5: There's a couple of lines where the next line of 176 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 5: this is actually they mingle, not with their laughing comrades again. 177 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 5: They sit no more at familiar tables of home. They 178 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 5: have no lot in our labor of the daytime. They 179 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 5: sleep beyond England's foam. It's a British poem. And the 180 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 5: very last part, as the stars that shall be bright 181 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 5: when we are dust moving in marches upon the heavenly plane, 182 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 5: as the stars that are starry in the time of 183 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 5: our darkness, to the end, to the end. 184 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 7: They remain. 185 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 4: So much of this in retrospect, and you don't have 186 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 4: eyes to fully appreciate it in the moment, but where 187 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 4: you realize that you were encountering greatness, and the moment 188 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 4: you get the news, you realize that you were around 189 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 4: somebody that was so so incredible, and in kind of 190 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 4: in a weird way, like in retrospect, it all kind 191 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 4: of makes sense that we were we only get him 192 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 4: for such a short time, Yeah, because he was too 193 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 4: great for this world in so many ways, and he 194 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 4: was a shooting star. He was a mythological creature. You know, 195 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 4: you hear these pictures, you hear these images of our 196 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 4: descriptions of George Washington. 197 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 2: I was this huge man and and. 198 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 4: Like especially for his time well Charlie, we always joked 199 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 4: he was a enehlom was literally tis the only chair 200 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 4: that we could get. This is actually really funny story. 201 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 4: When we first started getting Charlie the chairs for his studios, like, no, 202 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 4: not that was like it was like mattress shopping. 203 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: It was like, not that one, not that one. 204 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 6: Literally this chair, this is a shack chair. From it's O'Neill. 205 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 6: It's fairly inexpensive chair from. 206 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 2: Huge people like Shaquille O'Neill. 207 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 3: And from Staples. 208 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 4: Yes, and from Staples. He was like, oh, this is 209 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 4: the one. And he's worn it out. It's got like 210 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 4: a little like you know, the. 211 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: The very cheap you know, veneer on it or whatever. 212 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: I don't even know what you call it. 213 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 4: Like it's definitely not leather, it's like fin and he 214 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 4: wore it out and he loved that big chair. And 215 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 4: I have to say, like when I've sat in it 216 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 4: in the past, like you've sat in it, it's like 217 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 4: you're like, Okay, I see. 218 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 2: What he was kind of you know, it's a good chair. 219 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 4: It's like but he was larger than life and we 220 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 4: all saw it, and we all you know, he was 221 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 4: younger than us. Everybody at this table he was younger 222 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 4: than us, and so we just you know, you assume 223 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 4: that you're gonna probably go before him. But in retrospect, like, 224 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 4: he was so larger than life, and he packed so 225 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 4: much into every single day that it's pretty impossible to 226 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 4: it's impossible to fully grasp just how much life he 227 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 4: lived and how much he accomplished in thirty one for 228 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 4: two short years. But we do have our first caller. 229 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 4: Do we want to you guys ready for that.

Keep this quick. Charlie was a friend. 234 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 9: I consider him a dear friend, even though I never 235 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 9: ever met him.

I running out right along and landscaping 237 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 9: business and also hosts a podcast. And what Charlie really 238 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 9: taught me was he was always continuingly learning.

He's always listening to books and things 243 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 9: like that. In his boldness to stand on the word 244 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 9: of God and Jesus is what I've tried to do 245 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 9: with my business in life and even my family too. 246 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 9: I have a two and a half year old son 247 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 9: and a kid. 248 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 11: On the way. 249 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 9: When I heard the news just a couple of days ago, 250 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 9: I was on the moor. I stopped and I cried. 251 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 9: It was just it's devastating. But we know that God's 252 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 9: going to work this together for good and through his 253 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 9: tragic death, Guys, more people are gonna know about Jesus 254 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 9: and that's the one thing that we have to remember 255 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 9: through this. And it's just I've never been he. I 256 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 9: can consider him a friend even though I just never 257 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 9: knew him. And I want you, guys to hold on 258 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 9: to God's words because that's what Charlie would want for 259 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 9: us to do. Us stand on God's word and hold 260 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 9: on to it right now and not let the enemy 261 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 9: just blind us from the mission that he had set.

We asked 278 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 4: the Holy Spirit that you would enter the hearts of 279 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 4: millions of people across this planet, across our nation, and 280 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 4: that you would bring people to faith in you, Jesus, 281 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 4: saving faith in you.

And 288 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 4: I know, Lord God, that getting married and having a 289 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 4: family and knowing you were his greatest accomplishments on top 290 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 4: of everything else he did. And so Jesus, we just 291 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 4: blessed this country and everybody that loved Charlie or that 292 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: heard about him, that only heard about him, even from 293 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 4: from his his death.

I actually 311 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 6: remember visiting we were visiting a donor and we stood 312 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 6: in the spot where Andrew Breitbart passed, Wi's a kind 313 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 6: of a I think you've been there, right, Yeah, it's 314 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 6: really interesting to shout outside a restaurant. 315 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 2: It's it's imprent at least I don't know, yeah, it's. 316 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 6: It's it's kind of an interesting place. But we he 317 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 6: he had always had kind of this infatuation with the concept, 318 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 6: and we actually leaned into it talking about. 319 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 3: Culture wars and all of that. 320 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:25,719 Speaker 6: But that culture, uh, is what dictates your politics. So 321 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 6: and culture is dependent upon your faith. There's nothing, there's 322 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 6: nothing that that impacts that. So the politics that is 323 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 6: really downstream from cultures really and this is like kind 324 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 6: of like I would say Andrew Breitbart next level, which 325 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 6: was Charlie Kirk, is that That's why I believed Charlie 326 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 6: was so adamant about faith being so important, is that 327 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 6: he was a true believer in that statement, but that 328 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 6: faith was what was dictating how our politics would end up, 329 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 6: which is absolutely correct and true. 330 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 3: And so there's nothing that could be more important. 331 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 5: Right now, what you can they just tie it up 332 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 5: and say politics is downstream from culture. Culture to culture 333 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 5: is downstream from faith. 334 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 6: That's right, and and Charlie led by example and embracing faith, 335 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 6: embracing the christ like attributes that are necessary to impact 336 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 6: culture in the positive way. That needed to happen. And 337 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 6: I think that's why you're seeing that turn of so 338 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,479 Speaker 6: many young people that were influenced by this, maybe starting 339 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 6: with politics, but walking themselves backwards and going, oh my gosh, well, 340 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 6: my politics is dictated by my faith. 341 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: And that's a great legacy. 342 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 6: That is the most important legacy, which Charlie himself said, 343 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 6: which is that's all. 344 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: That's all he cared about, was that people would know that. 345 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 2: Well. I was interesting. 346 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 4: I saw a clip yesterday from Larry O'Connor who worked 347 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 4: for Breitbart Andrew Breitbart, and they were talking about he 348 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 4: was talking about this memory at PACT and they were 349 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 4: doing an Andrew Brybart. 350 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: Panel and Larry put it together. 351 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 4: He was kind of He's like, well, all of us 352 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 4: worked directly with Andrew, you. 353 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 3: Never knew him. 354 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 4: He's like, and Charlie, I can't wait to be on 355 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 4: this panel. You know, this is so amazing. And so 356 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 4: he's like, I'll call you and tell you about it, 357 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 4: like my thoughts, and he's like, hey, we probably should 358 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 4: talk because the rest of us knew Andrew. And Charlie 359 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 4: said that I was so inspired by Andrew Breitbart that 360 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 4: I created Turning Point. And Larry realized that he started 361 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 4: Turning Point in twenty twelve, yeah, the year that it happened, 362 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 4: and he realized that that that Charlie in many ways 363 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 4: is the blossom of the seed planted by the death 364 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 4: of Andrew Breitbart. And so when you think about how 365 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 4: that can keep going forward, and I know Charlie would 366 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 4: want that that that we would have many such stories 367 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 4: like that, not just Turning Point or whatever. 368 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 6: And it's really an interesting point to make for those 369 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 6: that study modern conservatism. There aren't very many people. I mean, 370 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 6: let's if you had to pick the top three, it 371 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 6: would probably be you know, and again we're setting Charlie aside, 372 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 6: but Andrew Breitbart, Donald Trump, and the third being Rush Limbaugh. 373 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 6: And when you look at that and you start to go, wait, 374 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 6: what's the connection between all three of those men, it's 375 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 6: really you look at that and you go Charlie Kirk. 376 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 6: And Charlie was a again enigma. He was he had 377 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 6: a personality that was unlike anything else. 378 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: But he was the continuation. 379 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 6: He picked the batona for all three those men in 380 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 6: different ways, and carried the entire conservative movement on his 381 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 6: back and created something again that the culmination of that, 382 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 6: you know what is the representation of Charlie. And people 383 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 6: are like, well, what can we do to keep Charlie? 384 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 6: You have it, it's turning point. Us say, it's turning point. 385 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 6: The ECO says that he did it. 386 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was. He was able to do all the things, 387 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 2: all of the things. 388 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 7: I promised we would, we would mention this. 389 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 5: And before we go to the next caller, I saw 390 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 5: some people saying that, you know, they thought I was 391 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 5: trying to brush it off. I just I wanted to 392 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 5: give the Vigils a moment because the and I wanted 393 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 5: because I knew were up one o'clock before. It's unbelievable, 394 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 5: and they are worldwide South Africa. I've seen Australia, Australia, 395 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 5: huge one in Australia. I got a video from Sydney 396 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 5: this morning. Someone sent me Sweden, Sweden, all across Europe. 397 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,439 Speaker 3: I just got one from Hungarians and. 398 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 5: Then all across the country and and there's like there's 399 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 5: like little ones popping up, you know, like just hey, 400 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 5: this is the one in our town. If you want 401 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 5: to come, just come on.

That's what 410 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk stood for. That's what he was all about. 411 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 5: He lived his entire life trying to inspire a turning 412 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 5: point in this country. 413 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 7: And and he's done it. 414 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 4: He I I take so much solace in a couple 415 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 4: of things. 416 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 2: He got to see. 417 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 4: Young men and the youth vote win a president. 418 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 2: Yes, he got to see it, and he got to 419 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: do it, and he. 420 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 4: Got to see he got to see the decline in 421 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 4: church start going back up. He got to see that. 422 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 4: And he got to see just just before that NBC 423 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 4: poll that said that young men want to get married 424 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 4: and have babies as their top priorities. 425 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 2: Yep. 426 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 4: And I can't tell you how much that means to 427 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 4: me that he got to see the fruit of his work, 428 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 4: because so many people don't, They don't get to see 429 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 4: what they've accomplished, and he actually got to see it. 430 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 4: And all of you that came out to the campus events, 431 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 4: all of you that came out to our Turning Point events, 432 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: all of you that subscribed to the show, that gave 433 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 4: him like one of the biggest shows and reaches and 434 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 4: platforms in the entire country day in and day out, 435 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 4: and we had millions of people listening to Charlie every 436 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 4: day day every day. We tried our best to estimate it. 437 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 4: And the way of modern analytics with fast channels versus radio, 438 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 4: versus podcasts, and then you take clips, it was basically 439 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 4: impossible to measure. But even just in the fall going 440 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 4: up to the election, fifteen billion views of Charlie Kirk 441 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 4: content just just ahead of the election, and every day 442 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 4: there was between two and three million people that tuned 443 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 4: into this show, to the Charlie Kirk Show, or listen 444 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 4: to the podcast or and that's just the live show. 445 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 4: That's not even counting clips. So that was podcast radio 446 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 4: and it was truly truly a feat for anybody, but 447 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,479 Speaker 4: the fact that he was able, like we said Tyler, 448 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 4: to be like a rush Limbaugh, to be like an Andrew. 449 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: And all of it human that. 450 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 4: Took and by the way, and I want to give 451 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 4: a shout out to all of his assistant staff and 452 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 4: his chief of staff. 453 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 2: Mikey, who made his day to day possible. They were 454 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 2: really amazing. 455 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 4: We're going to get to another caller, and this one 456 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 4: is Anthony. Anthony, the floor is yours, my friend. Tell 457 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 4: us about Charlie and Andrew. 458 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 11: Well, first, my condolences to you and everybody. So Charlie 459 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 11: and I, I've been listening to the show since it 460 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 11: probably started, and I've been a member for a while 461 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 11: and everything and then, but the one time that it 462 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 11: stood out to me, and this might have been the 463 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 11: funniest disagreement, was probably at the end of July early August. 464 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 11: It was the weekend before you had to go on 465 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 11: Fox and Friends. And he put out the question to 466 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 11: everybody in the first hour, does baseball need a salary cap? 467 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 11: And he knows that I work in the industry and 468 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 11: it's on the college side of athletics, and we talked 469 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 11: about the political question I sent into him, and then 470 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 11: he goes, all right, Anthon, give me your need. I 471 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 11: need to know you're the professional. I go, I already 472 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 11: emailed you my answer in the first hour. He goes, 473 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 11: I know I'm not letting you go until you tell me. Said, well, 474 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 11: I believe I'm on the fence, and he literally starts 475 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 11: laughing and goes, you can't be on the fence about this. 476 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 11: You have to be on my side. And I'm like 477 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 11: and then and I'm like literally sitting there and I'm like, 478 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 11: he's only at me. He's only because the guy in 479 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 11: the industry won't side with him. And I'll be honest, 480 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 11: I always wanted a salary cap until I did more research. 481 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 11: And then he's like, well, you have to blake. You 482 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 11: can relate to this. You got to find me that 483 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 11: research incentence.

We must put God 703 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: first in everything that we do. We are nothing here 704 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: but just for a short instant, short little glimpse. We 705 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: act not out of outcome, but we act out of obedience. Everybody, 706 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 1: this was not earned.

Becoming a father has made me, first 715 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: of all, understand that what I'm fighting for is beyond 716 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,320 Speaker 1: even yourself. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, 717 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: but against principalities and darkness and spirits, because at its core, 718 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 1: what we are fighting is a spiritual battle. And if 719 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: you're here and you don't believe in God, okay, fine, 720 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: I'll pray for you, and I hope you find Jesus 721 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: Christ as your Lord and savior because it will change 722 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 1: your life. 723 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 3: How do you want to be remembered. 724 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: I want to be I want to be remembered for 725 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:09,720 Speaker 1: courage from my faith. 726 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: That would be the most important thing. 727 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:17,720 Speaker 8: Most important thing is my faith in my life. 728 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 3: Wow. 729 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 2: Good job, Noah, great. 730 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 6: Job, Noah, that's great.

I Mean, the thing that I 894 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 6: think most people don't realize, especially in these these last 895 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 6: years that Charlie was with us, was that he was 896 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 6: never alone. I mean, the weight and pressure of having 897 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 6: to be that celebrity like that's a lot. It's a 898 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 6: lot to do and and that has an impact on 899 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 6: most people. And the one thing I think that was 900 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,359 Speaker 6: really astonishing about Charlie is he didn't change as a 901 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 6: person at all. 902 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 4: He didn't he by the way, he wasn't like the 903 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 4: party animal either. Like so a lot of people get 904 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 4: in this role and they I don't know, you see 905 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 4: him at clubs, you see him drinking, you see them 906 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 4: partying or like enjoying all this stuff. 907 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 2: Charlie would go home at like the. 908 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 4: First instant that was socially acceptable for the programming, like 909 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 4: at America Fests, maybe the program didn't get over until 910 00:49:57,760 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 4: seven thirty. He would go straight home back to the 911 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 4: hotel hell as soon as he could. After meeting with 912 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 4: donors or supporters. He would do like he would do 913 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 4: a circuit of like four stops, five stops, meet with donors, 914 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 4: and then he goes straight back to be with Erica, 915 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 4: like immediately. 916 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 6: And his personality never changed. His demeanor never never changed. 917 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 6: I mean, his busyness level was never different.
