Much like I predicted, Clay did not 255 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 6: sell him, despite his strong commitments to do so. Instead, 256 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 6: Banjo went to boarding school. 257 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, so first of all, to give people a 258 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 2: little bit of history back, Okay, is he the best 259 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 2: mule I've got? I trained her she's seven years old. 260 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: I got her when she was eighteen months old. I 261 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 2: trained her in the six six week period, and I 262 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: trained her myself, and she's a finished, really nice mule 263 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 2: worth a lot. Had a guy come to my house 264 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 2: a few days ago and asked me what I would 265 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 2: sell her for, and he was a mule. 266 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 7: Trainer, and he said no amount of money. 267 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 2: I told him, I said, I said, you don't have 268 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 2: enough money to buy that mule. And I was being serious. 269 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 2: So I'm telling you that because this is in connection. 270 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 2: So Banjo is Izzy's full brother, and I got him 271 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: with the intent of training him myself. My life was 272 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: quite a bit different when I got Banjo in terms 273 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 2: of the amount of time that I could spend with 274 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 2: a mule, and so I kind of slow trained him. Okay, 275 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 2: what I did with Izzy in six weeks, I did 276 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 2: in like a year with him, which is not good. 277 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: It's not good practice, you know. 278 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: There was just rather than riding him five days a week, 279 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 2: I wrote him once every ten days, or maybe once 280 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 2: every ten days, I'd ride him three days in a row. 281 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 2: And I might go for a month without messing with him, 282 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 2: and then coming back and messed with him and so 283 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: last summer I. 284 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: Started riding him and got bucked off twice. 285 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 2: Okay, so he scared me, and it was my fault, 286 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 2: one hundred percent of my fault. And I really felt 287 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 2: like this mule had a lot of potential. He was 288 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 2: really level headed. He was a flashy mule. And I'm 289 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 2: going to tell you why. It's for sure a bona 290 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: fide like stamped and approved flashy mule. 291 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: A man that I'm gonna tell you about in a minute. 292 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: Told me this, Brent, And so I. 293 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 2: Asked my dad asked, all, y'all, you know, I think 294 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna sell him, because I you know, pretty 295 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: much a bucking mule can be like a biting dog. 296 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 2: Like if your dog bites you, you don't really ask 297 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 2: many questions. You get rid of the dog. A mule 298 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: can be that way with certain people. I asked an 299 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 2: old muleman, Lloyd Holly, over here in Prairie Grove, and 300 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 2: I said, man, I got a mule. He's bucked me 301 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 2: off twice. I think it's my fault. I think he's 302 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: a good mule. And he said, get rid of that sucker, 303 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 2: And but I just couldn't quite do it. And so 304 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: my friend, Michael Lanier. He's he was my squirrel hunting 305 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 2: mentor and a good mule man. He introduced me to 306 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: a guy in another part of Arkansas that is an 307 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: Amish guy mule trainer. And in the mule world the 308 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 2: Amisher legendary, the Amisher legendary for being mule trainers. And 309 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: so for a for a very good price, I took 310 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: Banjo over to this guy's place. And the idea was 311 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 2: he would keep him for thirty days for a certain price, 312 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 2: and he would ride him thirty times, or you know, 313 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: train him, train him for thirty days every day, every day. 314 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 2: And uh. And so me and my uncle go over there, 315 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: and it was fascinating to me. We pull up to 316 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: this place and I thought maybe the guy might have 317 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: like two or three animals he was riding for people. 318 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: This is like a this is like a business man. 319 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 2: That he had probably twenty to twenty five horses and 320 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: mules in stalls, just one after the other. And he 321 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: and his son and his son in law and I 322 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 2: think another son. I think there are four of them. 323 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 2: That I mean rode and trained those mules and horses 324 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 2: every day. It's just what they wake up and do 325 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: and while we're there. These people are very nice people 326 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: then like this, not big conversationalists necessarily, but I'm trying 327 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: to sap everything i can out of this small interaction. 328 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 2: When I'm dropping Banjo off at training camp, you know, 329 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: and while I'm sitting there, we I tie Banjo up, 330 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 2: and there's all these mules and horses, and Banjo's kind 331 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 2: of excited and he's never been in an environment like this. 332 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: He's kind of pulling up the lead rope and amped up. 333 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 2: And I see two things that happen just while we're 334 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 2: standing there in like ten minutes that would be like 335 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 2: if that had happened to me, they had been a 336 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 2: big deal.

But I grew up 515 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 7: in my mind hearing it that way. And I think 516 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 7: I was a teenager before I realized. I think I 517 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 7: saw it in print, I was like, Oh, it's actually 518 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 7: ku Klux Klan, not klu. 519 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 6: Klux klu Clux clans has like something from a doctor 520 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 6: sus but. 521 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 9: It makes sense on your tie's almost like they made 522 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 9: a mistake later like. 523 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 5: Oh, I've got so. 524 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 6: That, we've got that other. I thought this was fascinating, 525 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 6: Like on so many levels. I thought this, this, this 526 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 6: podcast was fascinating as someone, you know, I think one 527 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 6: of the most fascinating parts of it is that the 528 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 6: book is blacklisted and I haven't heard of it and 529 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 6: none of my students have read it. That that to 530 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 6: me when I just listening, yeah, listening to the to 531 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 6: the podcast, I hadn't heard of the book, So I 532 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 6: I like to put this kind of stuff and and 533 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 6: here in like when I when I heard the different 534 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 6: excerpts from the book and what they described it would 535 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 6: be the type of book that we would love to 536 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 6: read at the school. But it's it's never on any 537 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 6: of the list, Like when you when you. 538 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 5: Know you look when you google blacklisted books. 539 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 6: No, well, I mean I don't google blacklisted books. That's 540 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 6: not what I'm going for. But but it's just interesting. 541 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 6: It's never on a recommended list and No, none of 542 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 6: our over the years, none of our literature teachers have 543 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 6: ever brought this up as a good book to read, 544 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 6: a good conversation to have. I think it's fascinating that 545 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 6: Jessica Reddit and they didn't have a broader conversation. 546 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 2: About Quite a few people reached out to me and 547 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 2: said they had read the book and didn't know the background. 548 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 6: And didn't know that, And to me, that's that's wild. 549 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 6: That would be a fascinating background to discuss with high 550 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 6: school kids, especially, I mean, I think or college studio. 551 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 2: But that brings up the biggest question in the whole 552 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 2: thing is it doesn't matter. Does it matter Malachi? Doesn't 553 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: matter that he wrote a great book and that he 554 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 2: was this guy. 555 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 8: I mean, yes and no. But I was rooting for 556 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 8: him in a sense of like to hope that he 557 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 8: changed at the end, you know, because I think just 558 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 8: looking at people would like it's hard to change when 559 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 8: you get older, right, And to see a guy potentially, 560 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 8: see a guy who was so distraught with the world 561 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 8: and so you know, racist that potentially he would change 562 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 8: and you would see you were you were thinking it 563 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 8: was you know, he changed, and so yeah, and he 564 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 8: like produced this great work that was always in him, right, 565 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 8: So from that perspective, I think I was rooting for him. 566 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 5: I mean, I think it. It doesn't take. 567 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 8: Away the fact that it's a great book, but I 568 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 8: do think you have to I do think it requires 569 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 8: a read and then a discussion right about the author 570 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 8: because I can't remember if it was in the first 571 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 8: or second episode. You the first or second episode you 572 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 8: kind of asked like, would you read this to your kids? 573 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 3: Right? 574 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 8: And I think to me, I think I would when 575 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 8: they're older, to have that conversation about like, can people 576 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 8: who do bad stuff produce good things? 577 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 3: Right? 578 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 8: That's a I mean, that's a deep question, especially regarding race, 579 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 8: that you yourself have to be resolved in to have. 580 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 8: I think it's a great conversation to have with kids 581 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 8: who will be faced with, you know, people whose values 582 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 8: are or the way they live their life is different 583 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 8: than you. They that they might produce something that's good, 584 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 8: and do you value that or do you shun it 585 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 8: away just because or their history. I don't have the 586 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 8: right answer right now, but I mean I think it's 587 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 8: a great it's a great exercise to have, and it 588 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 8: puts you in an uncomfortable position right, I think at. 589 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: The end of God was crazy. 590 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, well the the hard part or not the hard part. 591 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 2: But the question then becomes to what level of scrutiny 592 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 2: do we scrutinize everything? Because it's like, I can pick 593 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: up this book right here, Well, pick up a book 594 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: and name the author. 595 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: Is that author perfect? 596 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 3: You know? 597 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: Did the author the Bible? 598 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 3: Then yes? 599 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: I mean so, then then that means there's a gradient 600 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 2: scale because ASA's life was so radical and. 601 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: The the. 602 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: The sentiment so egregious that we can say, well, for 603 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: sure it matters with this guy because of how egregious 604 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: it was. But then the guy that you know cheated 605 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: on his wife. You know, maybe it's not that big 606 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,719 Speaker 2: a deal. I mean, and I guess it's all And 607 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 2: that's just an example of something scandal. 608 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 6: I think what makes this a little bit different is 609 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 6: that he stated it was semi autobiographical. He lied love, Yeah, 610 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 6: he just I mean, but it's it is an important 611 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 6: one when you I think, it wouldn't matter to me 612 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 6: if he just said this was a nonfiction book, all right, 613 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 6: this is a fiction book. Like if he just said 614 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 6: this is the novel that kind of I made up, 615 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,959 Speaker 6: then that wouldn't be very important. But the fact that 616 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 6: he said this was like his life story, that makes 617 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 6: it that that is puzzling, and it makes you have 618 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 6: to kind of jump to Okay, this guy was crazy. Yeah, 619 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 6: And maybe that doesn't matter, maybe that doesn't make the 620 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 6: book less good. But poor guy, he was really great. 621 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 622 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the value of it starts at page 623 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 4: one and ends at the last page in that book, 624 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 4: and you don't take it any further than that. 625 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: He So you're a big death of the author guy. 626 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 4: If the end of that is the end of his 627 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 4: I'm trying to think out of how to phrase it. 628 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 4: His participation in that to me stopped when at the 629 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 4: last period, in the last page of that book. And 630 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 4: I if I I owe that guy, if I read 631 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 4: that book and enjoy it, thank you for writing a book. 632 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 4: Nothing else matters to me as far as he's concerned, 633 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 4: long as he's not affected me or my friends or 634 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 4: my family or something like that, which brings up another question. 635 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 4: Does that, you know, if that book is successful like 636 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 4: it was, does that adversely affect me or my family 637 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 4: or my friends. You know, I don't. It'd be hard 638 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 4: to correlate all that together. But as far as him 639 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 4: as a human being, Would I sit down have a 640 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 4: cup of coffee with him? 641 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 3: Now? 642 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: Would Could I read his book and enjoy it and 643 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 4: end it with just that participation in that piece of 644 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 4: his life that he wrote down on a piece of paper. Yeah, 645 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 4: I can enjoy that, But the rest of it is 646 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: immaterial to me the way I. 647 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 3: Look at it. 648 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't want to be real chatty Kathy here 649 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 6: at the same time, though, does it?

She regretted that. 689 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 2: I want to say that She said that was one 690 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 2: of the bigger regrets of her her professional career, because 691 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 2: perhaps she wasn't ever duped like that. Before everybody she 692 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: sat down with. You know, they may have lied to her, 693 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: but at least they were who they said they were. 694 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 2: And so, yeah, the guy was That's what was interesting 695 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 2: to me, just for no good reason. But the guy 696 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 2: was was just he was super smart and was an 697 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 2: actor and could tie stories together. I mean, he was 698 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 2: kind of and I don't want to use the word 699 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 2: brilliant because it sounds like you're like you liked the guy, 700 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 2: but he was. 701 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 3: He was cunning and crafty. 702 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, goly he was he ever, Ben, what were you 703 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: gonna say? 704 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 9: Well, a couple of times. The first almost like a technicality. 705 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 9: And this is kind of hinted in the podcast that 706 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 9: him having some apparently subconscious things that he respected about 707 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 9: Cherokee culture stuff like that, that's not as like contradictory 708 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 9: to his like worldview as people might think. Because he 709 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,240 Speaker 9: didn't write a book about a slave narrative and pretend 710 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 9: that he was African American, like I don't think he was. 711 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 9: He could consciously do that, consciously do that, but says 712 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 9: it's a technicality. It's like sometimes people view like racists 713 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 9: as just like this black or white thing, and and 714 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 9: and actually I think that's actually one of the fact 715 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 9: that people are more complex than that, to me is 716 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 9: actually the danger and how you might how you interact 717 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 9: with people that do have some pretty messed up worldview. 718 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 9: For instance, like people that I look at in my 719 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 9: my childhood that I kind of respected and knew, and 720 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 9: I look back, like, it's not like I just reject 721 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 9: wholesale everything about their their character, because but I look 722 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 9: back and I see how messed up their views were 723 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 9: on race, and I learned from that. And my point 724 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 9: is like people are complex, and you can, I think 725 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 9: you can, in one hand like condemn something, on the 726 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 9: other hand be like. 727 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 5: Wow, that's interesting. 728 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 9: But I think after studying history for so many years, 729 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 9: I still baffled why we we as in like society 730 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 9: want to like venerate people or just like condemn every 731 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 9: part of them. Or why why do people get so 732 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 9: infatuated with talented writers and musicians, Like who said anybody 733 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 9: has to like this guy just because he's a good writer, 734 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 9: because obviously's a good writer. Same thing with musicians, Like 735 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 9: I'll start watching a documentary about some musician that I 736 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 9: like their music, and I'm halfway into I'm. 737 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 5: Like, I kind of can't stand this. 738 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 9: I would not hang out with them, Like I like 739 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 9: their music, but I don't like anything about them as 740 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 9: a person. 741 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 5: But it's just weird in. 742 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 9: Us how we try to put people on a pedestal 743 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 9: just because they're talented. And you see that in history, 744 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 9: starting with George Washington, who was as human as all 745 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 9: of us. He's got like this godlike status in our 746 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 9: culture because people don't really know about his entire life. 747 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 9: And when you study history, there's so much to take in. 748 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 9: You kind of are taught to categorize things pretty quickly 749 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 9: so you can just understand it quicker. And it's like, 750 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 9: these are the social causes, these are the political causes, 751 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 9: these are the economic causes, and these were the good guys. 752 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 9: These were the bad guys, and that's just who they were. 753 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 9: But when you really dive into history, read biographies and stuff, 754 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 9: you learn how complex people are. And sometimes you find 755 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 9: people are actually pretty crazy at the end of it, 756 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 9: and that might have been part of the driver of 757 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 9: their just like massive output of productivity or whatever they were, 758 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 9: and whether it's politics or art or whatever. 759 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 5: But people are complex. 760 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 3: M that's good. 761 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: I think the what you said about musicians like if 762 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 2: We and Malaca, I'm not arguing with you. I'm the 763 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 2: same way. I think I agree with what you said 764 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 2: at the beginning, Like it does matter what the author 765 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:19,280 Speaker 2: believed and did with his life. 766 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: It's important, it's not irrelevant. 767 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 2: But at the same time, yeah, how many musicians do 768 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 2: I like their music but would really be deeply, deeply 769 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 2: opposed to the values and lifestyle that they live, Like, yeah, 770 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 2: a lot. 771 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: But I still would listen to their music and enjoy it. 772 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 6: And I think about that. You could apply it to 773 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 6: like politics. There's a lot of politicians whose lifestyles do 774 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 6: not match their voting patterns, and so a lot of 775 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 6: people would vote for them because they like the way 776 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 6: they vote, but then they find out how they live 777 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 6: and it's like, oh, yuh, that's different. Actually the opposite 778 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 6: of what you say, and which one matters how they've vote, 779 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,399 Speaker 6: you know, and how much that aligns to how you 780 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 6: would want to be represented in your government, in a 781 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 6: representative government for the exactly These are complex, difficult questions Langbridge. 782 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 7: You know, it's interesting I actually had some of the 783 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 7: same thoughts about about musicians and celebrities. I mean, I 784 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 7: struggle sometimes, like with professional athletes, It's like that are venerated. 785 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, but really they're just absolutely dirt balls. 786 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 7: You know, and because they have a skill, and at 787 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 7: the same time, you can enjoy watching them play or 788 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 7: you can enjoy listening to their music. 789 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 2: When there's a sports game on, I only watch the 790 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 2: good guys. Anyone that doesn't have my exact value system. 791 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 2: I blank them out in my mind as they play football. 792 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 7: But I think I would lean more towards the death 793 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 7: of the author philosophy that I think that that you 794 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 7: you know, I think you can. I think it also 795 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 7: depends on your your worldview and perspective, because I think 796 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 7: there there is there are people who are very critical 797 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 7: of everything that they see and hear, and you know, 798 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 7: I remember when I was a kid, we boycotted everything 799 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 7: because you know, and until I got older and realized, like, 800 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 7: there there is stuff in the world that that is 801 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 7: not going to align with my values. However, you know, 802 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 7: Scripture talks about being in the world and not of 803 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 7: the world, and so we have the opportunity to maneuver 804 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 7: those things and still maintain the standards that we have. 805 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 7: I can read this book and not violate my conscience, 806 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 7: or I can and enjoy it. However, do I agree 807 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 7: with with Asa Carter. Absolutely not, you know what I mean. 808 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 7: The man was a kook. But I think I think 809 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 7: if you're if your perspective is right, you can read 810 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 7: that book and you can identify things inside of it 811 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 7: that are a beautiful because I think you know the 812 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 7: pros that you read in in the in the I've 813 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 7: never read the book, but that you read the excerpts 814 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 7: of on the podcas Has it was so beautifully written 815 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 7: and then paints a picture in your mind. But at 816 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 7: the same time, you know, we can we can also, 817 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,440 Speaker 7: you know, I think we have the ability to, you know, 818 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 7: if you have a critical mind and ability to read 819 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 7: that stuff. You know, can someone who has such a 820 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 7: strong philosophy about certain things right in right like that 821 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 7: and not they're not be subversive or or seditious things 822 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 7: going on behind there even consciously or subconsciously that they 823 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 7: put in there. 824 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 5: Who knows. 825 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 7: But I do appreciate it, and I think you can 826 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,800 Speaker 7: read it, you know what I mean. I think probably 827 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 7: thousands of people when Oprah put it on our list, 828 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 7: I'm sure thousands and thousands of people read it and 829 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 7: liked it and you know, didn't become racist. 830 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 3: This guy must be a right. 831 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 6: I think I'm one of those people that, like when 832 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 6: you're watching a movie and if it, if it really 833 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 6: impacts me, I go and research like the people who 834 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 6: wrote it and who made it. And so, first of all, 835 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 6: I think I would not have been due just had 836 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 6: I known this book existed. I think I would researched 837 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:06,760 Speaker 6: this guy. I think I was. It's true, Yeah, it's true, 838 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 6: But I think, you know, for me, like I do 839 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 6: get really connected to who and I don't abstain from 840 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 6: watching them in sports, but I actually care a lot 841 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 6: about that the people behind the behind all these things, 842 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 6: and that matters a whole lot to me, mainly just 843 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 6: because I'm I'm curious, you know, and I'm interested in 844 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 6: the person behind such a brilliant story. So I think 845 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 6: for someone like me, this is like what this guy 846 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 6: just totally lied and is completely different than. 847 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 4: I meant you beyond. Would it affected you so much 848 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 4: that you wouldn't have enjoyed the story? 849 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 6: Well, I don't know that if I wouldn't have enjoyed 850 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 6: the story, but it certainly changes when you when you 851 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 6: read it. I thought it was really interesting when he 852 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 6: actually interviewed the Native American people and they say, well, 853 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 6: this is accurate, but this part over here is yeah, 854 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 6: we would have never And it was like, okay, so 855 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 6: he's kind of just writing like a Southern guy who 856 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 6: has observe. 857 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,959 Speaker 2: I kind of thought that was a little nitpicky, though, 858 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 2: really well, kind of like Steve said, he said, nobody 859 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 2: had problems with this book at all until we found 860 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 2: out who the author was. You know, Steve said, go 861 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 2: back to the seventies and see if any anybody was 862 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:19,919 Speaker 2: saying that it was bad. 863 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 6: Did they have any Native Americans interviewed in this episode 864 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 6: about what they thought about it? 865 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 2: That I don't really know, but I know that the 866 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 2: world and this wasn't coming from the Native American community. 867 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 2: Perhaps they had a response and I'm unaware of it, 868 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 2: but you know, the world was venerating him as one 869 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 2: of the greatest Native American writers in history. 870 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: Pretty crazy, and so I mean, you know they weren't. 871 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 2: I don't and I don't know have they ever heard 872 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 2: of takumsaaaa.

I mean, 889 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 2: that was what I was trying to do, because I 890 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 2: believed it was a good book. 891 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 9: What I found interesting was it was the whole thing 892 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 9: about making money. It was almost like, I mean, he 893 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 9: obviously never admitted that he thought he was wrong, but 894 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 9: he eventually kind of gave up his almost like lost 895 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,360 Speaker 9: the lost this war that I've devoted my life to. 896 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 5: I'm just gonna go make some money. 897 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 9: I didn't find that very shocking, Like it's like that 898 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 9: kind of makes sense. I think the most shocking thing 899 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,720 Speaker 9: is the extent he went to to sell a book 900 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 9: to like literally con America, and it was it's It's 901 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:23,240 Speaker 9: pretty twisted, but also kind of hilarious. When Elon Musk 902 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 9: took over Twitter and they're like this, everybody thought he 903 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 9: was going to fire everybody. And these two random young 904 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 9: guys got boxes and they started walking down the street 905 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 9: near the office and fold all these journalists and just 906 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 9: saying they got fired. They started tweeting and writing about 907 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 9: all these firings, and they were just totally made it up. 908 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 9: Something's entertaining about somebody that cons others like that, you know. 909 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 5: What I have to say, And. 910 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 7: Maybe this is a character flaw, but I assumed that 911 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 7: that if I pick up a book and it says 912 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 7: based on a true story or something like that, that's 913 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 7: a lie.

I think everybody comes to a 969 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 8: position of like making a choice. I think he probably 970 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 8: had a choice of of like wanting things deeper, or 971 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 8: like turning his life around or trying to produce books 972 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 8: and just like letting the KKK life go. And I 973 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,440 Speaker 8: think he just made a choice to not do it. 974 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:17,800 Speaker 8: I think towards the end of his life he probably 975 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,280 Speaker 8: looked back, he was got to mix in he's crazy 976 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 8: and stuff like that. Looked back and thought, man, like 977 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 8: I wasted my time, right, did this radio show and 978 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 8: got kicked out right. I supported, you know, Governor Wallace, 979 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:33,840 Speaker 8: and then ran against him and lost. Right, Like his 980 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 8: life is just a bunch of trying and trying and 981 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,800 Speaker 8: trying and failing. And then he just thought, man, maybe 982 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:43,280 Speaker 8: I should put my life towards something and he produced 983 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 8: this like great book. So, I don't know, very interesting. 984 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 10: Man. 985 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 4: It was cool that he told that story. Somebody it 986 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 4: was in the navy with him. He said they'd heard 987 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 4: that story when he was young. Yeah, before he did 988 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 4: all that other shit. 989 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: He was eighteen years old.

But I feel like sometimes people who are 1007 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 6: like extremely good at stuff, and you know, they talked 1008 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 6: about every single good speech are all the It was 1009 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 6: clear he was an excellent writer.

And 1010 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,440 Speaker 6: sometimes I feel like there's you're kind of teetering with 1011 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:15,400 Speaker 6: like this balance in life between normal and gifting, and 1012 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 6: like the more the more gifted you are, and the 1013 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 6: more you go into that space and the more you 1014 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 6: perfect your craft, the less stable you become as a 1015 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 6: human being. That's kind of a pessimistic worldview, but that's 1016 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:31,760 Speaker 6: been my experience. 1017 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:33,719 Speaker 3: What you're saying. 1018 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 8: I mean, it made me think about as Carter made 1019 00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 8: me think about Bill Gates. And there's a documentary documentary 1020 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 8: about Bill Gates and his wife is talking about Bill 1021 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:48,879 Speaker 8: and how Bill is extremely smart, extremely smart, but Bill 1022 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:52,279 Speaker 8: is not connected to his emotions right, connected to how 1023 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 8: he feels. And I think it kind of connects with 1024 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 8: what Misty says, like you can put so much energy 1025 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 8: in perfecting your craft and do these things with gifting, 1026 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 8: that you lose a sense of humanity, right, you lose 1027 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:10,360 Speaker 8: a sense of connection and normalcy and enjoyment and you know, 1028 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 8: valuing people that you kind of you get warped. And 1029 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 8: I think you mix that with like you know, the 1030 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 8: deep racist, the deep. There was a there was a 1031 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 8: story in there where he talked about he got removed 1032 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 8: or he felled out of a class, and like that 1033 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 8: immediately he got resentful. So that like you mix all 1034 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 8: of that, like the system. 1035 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 6: Being against you and you feel like this isn't fair 1036 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 6: and it kind of twisted. 1037 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 3: You and it's not be my fault. Yeah, yeah, I 1038 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 3: gotta blame somebody looking for an enemy. 1039 00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 6: I think working with with kids a lot, you see 1040 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 6: parents come in when kids are really young and they 1041 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 6: want you to perceive their kids as gifted and really unique, 1042 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 6: and it's like, I think you should really be shooting 1043 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 6: for average here. There's a lot of value and having 1044 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 6: an average kid. There's a lot of I'm joking, but 1045 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 6: I'm also dead. 1046 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 2: Seriously, and it's it's something that we've done with our kids. 1047 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 2: I think is that we've gifting is being gifted at something. 1048 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: It doesn't it Almos's almost like it doesn't come by 1049 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,720 Speaker 2: merit in a way. And so there's things that you 1050 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 2: we we have honored character over gifting with our kids. 1051 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 2: That's the most simple way to say it. Because gifting 1052 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,319 Speaker 2: will take care of itself. There's certain things that your 1053 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,200 Speaker 2: kids you are going to be able to do that 1054 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 2: nobody else can do that you. 1055 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 1: Didn't work for. 1056 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: You just kind of got it. Yeah, you know, like 1057 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 2: Brent and his beard and overalls and. 1058 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: By the way, so you just see what I'm saying. 1059 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, and if you put too much of an emphasis 1060 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 6: on that, and if. 1061 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: You go emphasis on the gifting, it will kind of 1062 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:47,760 Speaker 1: pollute them. 1063 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think that there's a lot to be 1064 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 6: said for restraint just saying hey, I can go to 1065 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 6: like real extreme places with this thing. And you you 1066 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 6: see this a lot with artists with and they. 1067 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 2: Get weird artist musicians, Yeah, they just say it's like. 1068 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 6: But you you you see this a lot with artists 1069 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 6: where they just go down these extreme tunnels, they take 1070 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 6: on different identities, they become different people, and it's like, 1071 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 6: I bet it'd be good for the world if you 1072 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 6: were just like pretty darn good at your art and 1073 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 6: a really good person. 1074 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 2: Let me ask you, guys, something, do you I had 1075 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,360 Speaker 2: a lot of people comment to me that they they 1076 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 2: were maybe not surprised, but they that's what they said, 1077 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 2: that we could tackle this kind of issue on this platform. 1078 00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 2: What do y'all think? You are just kind of like, well, 1079 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 2: of course we're going to talk about this.

I think it needs 1082 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 8: to be like when I when I think about like 1083 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 8: the Bear Grease podcast, I think about like taking you 1084 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 8: to the wild, and it's uncomfortable, right, and I think 1085 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 8: it's okay to navigate and the things that are uncomfortable, 1086 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 8: And I just think race in the South and you know, 1087 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 8: hunting and Indians and you know, everything that's included. It's uncomfortable. 1088 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:09,839 Speaker 8: It's not as black and white. Yeah, and you know 1089 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:14,360 Speaker 8: you navigated with with wisdom, but I think you do 1090 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:15,319 Speaker 8: got to talk about it. 1091 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, It's all just really interesting to me. I had, 1092 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,760 Speaker 2: I had one negative review. 1093 00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 3: One star. 1094 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, he said, I love the podcast, I love 1095 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 2: all you guys, but this has nothing to do with hunting. 1096 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 2: This is an outdoor podcast. This is a waste of time. 1097 00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 2: He just Lambassis like saying like, why are you even 1098 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,200 Speaker 2: talking about it? And I don't take much. I mean, 1099 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,760 Speaker 2: this is not we never said it was a hunting podcast. 1100 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, if I'm interested in it and there's 1101 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 2: any connection to the natural world and this book, the 1102 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:50,800 Speaker 2: Education of Little Tree, was the gateway into into this story, 1103 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:56,879 Speaker 2: you know, and I appreciate that that we can talk 1104 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 2: about this stuff. Yeah, not be not be afraid of it, 1105 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 2: saying that, let's close on this one. 1106 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 1: What do you think about me reading the Unibar Manifesto. 1107 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 6: We talk about this, but that feels a little bit. 1108 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 1: Like, No. 1109 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 2: Brunella is the one who who had to read the 1110 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 2: Unibarber Manifesto in the same class that he read The 1111 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 2: Education of Little Tree. And so the Unibomber Manifesto was 1112 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: in the New York Times and the Washington Post in 1113 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety five. So it's not like it's not like 1114 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 2: this is bank contraband material. This literally was published in 1115 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 2: these places, and it didn't take me long to find 1116 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,759 Speaker 2: that section. And I wasn't looking for that section. I 1117 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 2: was just looking for a section that I could pull 1118 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 2: out that would have some relevance and a whole lot 1119 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:53,480 Speaker 2: of what he said, a whole lot of humans in 1120 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 2: America would agree with. 1121 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,320 Speaker 4: Well, that's how all those kind of people get followers, exactly, 1122 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 4: looking for somebody there, looking to identify with somebody, and 1123 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:06,839 Speaker 4: if they're an orator, like to comfort or whatever high 1124 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,879 Speaker 4: we can. Yeah, however we decided to say it. That's 1125 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 4: how he got this folks following him. He was able 1126 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 4: to get his message out. Oh, identify with that guy. 1127 00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 4: I'm going to start following him. Let's go do some 1128 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 4: stuff together. Burn a barn. 1129 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 3: Uh. 1130 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 4: Well, okay, I guess it's all right. And then it 1131 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 4: just magnifies them there. But that's how they get those 1132 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 4: folks to follow them. 1133 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's almost like extremism is about the application and 1134 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 9: the solution to the problem. 1135 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 5: But they start out talking about the problem. 1136 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 9: That a lot of people might agree with, and then 1137 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 9: they just get more and more extreme. 1138 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it goes back to that thing. 1139 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 4: Everybody always, regardless of what the issue is, somebody all 1140 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 4: do something about that. Well, finally some guy says, I'll 1141 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 4: tell you what, I'll do something about it if you'll 1142 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 4: go with me.
