1
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: A ritzy, upscale neighborhood in a deep blue city is

2
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: starting to realize, Hey, some of these deep blue policies

3
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: are affecting us, and we're not happy about it. NBC

4
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: also has some advice on by now Pay later scams,

5
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: and the advice is honestly kind of hilarious and banning

6
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: machetes because that's what this state in Australia needs. All

7
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,200
Speaker 1: that more coming up on this episode, A Turning Point tonight.

8
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in.

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 2: Together.

10
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,319
Speaker 1: We are charging the course of America's cultural comeback. This

11
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 1: is turning point tonight. Now, before we get to those

12
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: stories in our fantastic panel, Congress is on break. The

13
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: legislative branch is on break, so they're back in their

14
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: districts pretty much full time if they're a good congress person,

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: and they're hosting town halls, and with that comes libs

16
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: screaming their heads off. I asked producer Glenn to double

17
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: triple quadrupe double check that this picture wasn't ai but

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: it is. This is from Congressman Mike Flood's town hall

19
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: and which he said some incredibly reasonable things that people

20
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: still booed for and some very unreasonable things that they

21
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: cheered for, which probably mostly came from this lady or

22
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: sorry at this day them. I'm not sure what she

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: is or identifies as. But the question surrounding this is

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: should people still be holding town halls congressional members specifically,

25
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: especially considering that there are people on the conservative side

26
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: that said Libs coming to these things and wrecking them

27
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: with their just outlandish, absurd distractions makes them completely ineffective.

28
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: Well that's the direction coming from the heads at the

29
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: conservative movement on a lot of different congressional fronts, But

30
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: some conservatives are also saying no, we're We're gonna still

31
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: have them.

32
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: So the question is posed, should.

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: Conservatives continue to have town halls especial actually with the

34
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: disruptions like this, Let's bring in our panel to way

35
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: in here. Chris Hand is the host of The Chris

36
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: Hand Show in primetime. Alex Stein ninety nine over at

37
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: the Blaze, guys, thanks so much for joining us. Really

38
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: appreciate you taking the.

39
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 2: Time, Thanks for being thanks for having me, guys.

40
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: Before we get to you, I want to get to

41
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: this viral clip that happened over the weekend of this

42
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: town hall in which Mike Flood, Congressman, proposed thoroughly reasonable legislation,

43
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: or at least should be, and was well not booed

44
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: because they were cheering the opposite of what he was saying.

45
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 2: Just watch the clip and we'll get your reaction. It

46
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: talks about two big changes.

47
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: So the MATICICAI program. One of those changes is that

48
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 3: if you are able to work, and you're able bodied.

49
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 4: You have to work.

50
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 3: If you choose not to work, you do not get

51
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: free healthcare.

52
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 2: You do not get free healthcare.

53
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, So here's a question.

54
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 2: So here's a question.

55
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 3: Do you think that people who are twenty eight years

56
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 3: old that can work and refuse to work should get

57
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 3: free healthcare?

58
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 2: All right, that's enough of that, Chris. I'm gonna open

59
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 2: the floor to you. What are your thoughts.

60
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: On whether or not we should still be doing town halls,

61
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: because even when they weren't booming or cheering, they're just yelling,

62
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: chirping in the background, making as much of a distraction

63
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: as they can.

64
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 5: Well, first, I just want to address the picture that

65
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 5: you showed in the beginning of the segment that woman

66
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 5: clearly identifies as an orca.

67
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 4: We like to call them land whales.

68
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 5: And she's definitely gonna need free health insurance because the

69
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 5: diabetes and the clogged guardies are coming very very fast.

70
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 5: And I feel for her, I do, I do. I

71
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 5: also don't want to pay for it. Should they continue

72
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 5: doing these townholls? Yeah, they should, They absolutely should. We

73
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 5: know that the left is funding these leftist lunatics or

74
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 5: they're ramping them up with the rhetoric, but you.

75
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 4: Should be ready. You should be ready for these losers.

76
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 5: How about if you love Trump, keep yelling, you know,

77
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 5: say something dumb and get these idiots to shut up,

78
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 5: go in with a plan and keep doing the town halls.

79
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 4: I think that you should.

80
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited for this one, Alex as a guy

81
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: who goes in and I wouldn't necessarily even say disrupts,

82
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: but proves very very eloquent points in somewhat of a

83
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: humorous way.

84
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts here on the future of town halls.

85
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 6: Well, I try not to disrupt it so much so

86
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 6: that I get arrested, and I guess that's a little

87
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 6: different than what these people are doing. But you know,

88
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 6: obviously they should continue to keep doing these town halls.

89
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 6: And no disrespect to representative flood. But you know, half

90
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 6: these politicians, even the ones on Capitol Hill that get

91
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 6: elected to Congress, you can't really pick them out of

92
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 6: a lineup. So what this guy did, you know, accidentally,

93
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 6: is he went viral because these protesters went there.

94
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 7: So more of these politicians.

95
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 6: What they should do is, if they're really planning five

96
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 6: D chests, is you hire the protesters yourself to go

97
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 6: and disruptive, because that is what makes it interesting. No, seriously,

98
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 6: because you go to these meetings and they're so boring.

99
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 6: Half the time, you know the best and this is

100
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 6: a weird thing.

101
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,799
Speaker 7: But what people don't realize in life, you need life

102
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 7: to be hard.

103
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 6: You need some resistance in order to you know, to

104
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 6: actually you know, succeed, in order to gain any sort

105
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 6: of really success, you need a little friction. So that's

106
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 6: why we're watching this. So honestly, they should pay the

107
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 6: protesters that come.

108
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 7: That friction makes it more undertwenty, It makes it go viral.

109
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 7: I'm dead serious.

110
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, keep them on their toes and yeah, creates viral content.

111
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: That's a pretty interesting point. I wonder if anybody will

112
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: take that up speak of things that lives are doing

113
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: that is fascinating and interesting. We all know that these

114
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: deep blue cities Los Angeles, New York, Chicago have these

115
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 1: horrible policies that are brought about by people who don't

116
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: live in the rougher parts of the neighborhood.

117
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: Similar situation is going on in Boston.

118
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: There's a neighborhood called Beacon Hill where the average home

119
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: price sits at about.

120
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 2: Two point three million dollars according to Realtor.

121
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: But they now are seeing the drug addicts, the transients

122
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: come into their neighborhood and for the last several months

123
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 1: have been going to city council meetings saying this.

124
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 2: Needs to stop.

125
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: Alex I feel like this is this is what it's

126
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: gonna have to take. We saw this with DeSantis shifting

127
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: illegals up to Martha's vineyard. We've seen this with a

128
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: bunch of different places of Hey, you know, deal with

129
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: these problems in your neighborhood and see how much you

130
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: like it. Do you think the tide is shifting or

131
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: do you think it's gotten so bad in these blue

132
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: cities that the elites that perpetuated are finally going to

133
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: start speaking up?

134
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,119
Speaker 7: Well, no, I really honestly think it's like the hunger games.

135
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 6: And I know we use that cliche a lot, but

136
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 6: there's there's literally no middle class. I just saw some

137
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 6: study the amount of people that are, you know, in

138
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 6: their thirties that own a house and have a kid

139
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 6: compared to the nineteen sixties is down like one thousand percent.

140
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 6: I mean, it's you know, it's incredible how far we

141
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 6: have fallen as a society. And really the indication that

142
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 6: it shows me is that we don't have a middle class,

143
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 6: either ultra wealthy or your home. And I think Boston

144
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 6: is a good example of that. Like being such a

145
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 6: classic city, it's priced out all the normal people. It's

146
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 6: just these Harvard elites that can afford to live there,

147
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 6: or the bums that live on the street that you know,

148
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 6: don't even want to go to a homeless shelter because

149
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 6: they're so strung out on Finnel. So I don't know

150
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 6: if this will actually be a wake up call because

151
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 6: I see in New York, I think Mom Donnie has

152
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 6: a very good.

153
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 7: Chance to win. It's Curtis Lee, would you know.

154
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 6: I think he's their only chance to defeed him and

155
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 6: he's ran a bunch of times and having won, so

156
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 6: I guess it's just a product of their environment, and

157
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 6: it's actually socially engineered to be that way, to have

158
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 6: no middle class and have ultra rich people, you know,

159
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 6: having to step over homeless people on their way to

160
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 6: the country club.

161
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a it's a it's a crazy thing to

162
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: watch unfold.

163
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 2: Chris.

164
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: The only reason I think this was brought to the

165
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: media's attentions because this happens to be the neighborhood that

166
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: John Kerrey lives in. According to the Boston Public Health Commission,

167
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: there was a forty seven point one percent increase in

168
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: mortality rates due to drug use over twenty twenty to

169
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two versus twenty tweventeen to twenty nineteen. There's

170
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: kind of a lot of year's dates there, but basically

171
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: they've gone up by fifty percent drug use mortality rates

172
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: in this particular neighborhood. Same question that Alex answered, Do

173
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: you think this is going to be a wake up

174
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: call or do you think this is going to be

175
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: a continued slip into the separation of the elites and

176
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: the homeless?

177
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, no, no.

178
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 5: They'll throw money at the problem, but we've seen them

179
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 5: throw money at the problem. I believe it was Portland.

180
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 5: They threw like seven hundred million dollars at homelessness last

181
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 5: fiscal year and they saw it increase by like seventy percent.

182
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 5: It was something ridiculous. But no, No, In Boston, you

183
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 5: have may Or Michelle Wou running the city, and while

184
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: she doesn't allow whites to go to her Christmas party,

185
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 5: she's fine with them shooting up on the streets. And

186
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 5: it's insane. I grew up outside of Boston and the

187
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 5: drug use there, man, it is wild how much.

188
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 4: Fentanyl is going through there.

189
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 5: A lot of my friends have passed away in that

190
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 5: area because of overdoses.

191
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 4: As heartbreaking.

192
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 5: I mean, they make their own choices, and that sucks.

193
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 5: They shouldn't make those choices, but for the city to

194
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 5: enable it, it gets real mess. He was twenty twenty two.

195
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 5: Michelle wu started having a needle exchange program in a

196
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 5: lot of these areas, and you've seen the problem get

197
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 5: incrementally worse.

198
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 4: It seems like every time the Left has.

199
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 5: A solution, it's not a solution at all. Sure they'll

200
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 5: make a little bit of money here and there with

201
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,319
Speaker 5: their nonprofits, but they don't ever fix the problem.

202
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 4: And I don't think they want to to be perfectly

203
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 4: honest with you.

204
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that seems to be the problem is they'll throw

205
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: money at it, but then they'll also pocket that money

206
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: when the money goes to the people that are in

207
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: their pocket. A crazy situation going on there. We'll keep

208
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: everybody updated on any unfolding events. But speaking of things

209
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: that are damaging that people don't necessarily know we're damaging,

210
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: I thought this was really interesting. The Journal of American

211
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: Heart Association on Wednesday published a study that basically said

212
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: kids from ten to eighteen years old are at higher

213
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: risk for cardio metabolic diseases including high blood pressure, high cholesterol,

214
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: and high insulince rates for watching screen time. If they

215
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,839
Speaker 1: use screen times at a higher level than their counterparts

216
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: who don't use screen time, there risk for a bunch

217
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: of heart problems, which seems crazy to me. Now, nobody

218
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: actually knows why specifically, but Alex, let me get your

219
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: thoughts of why.

220
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 2: What you think might be causing this?

221
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 7: Uh?

222
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 2: Is it stress related? Is it teenage angst? What is it?

223
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 7: Well, I forget Joe Bob that you're a lot younger

224
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 7: than me. I know exactly what this is.

225
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 6: Because when I was a kid, I didn't have an iPad.

226
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 7: I didn't have a cell phone.

227
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 6: You know, we had the flip phone cell phones that

228
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 6: had the snake on them. You know, seriously, you know,

229
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 6: we had the no Kia phones that didn't have a

230
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 6: crap to do.

231
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 7: So you had to go on.

232
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 6: Your bicycle, you had to go ride your bike, you

233
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 6: had to go out in the hot Texas summers. Now

234
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 6: these kids are so insulated and they're just all on

235
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 6: their cell phone and they don't even go outside. They

236
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 6: don't even move around, And I think that's why their

237
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 6: hearts are not getting the exercise at a young age.

238
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 6: Or it's most important. You need the development, you need

239
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 6: your body, your hormone all balanced. You know, they're not

240
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 6: gonna their hormones are gonna be so embalanced when they're

241
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 6: eating microplastics and looking at their phone all day and

242
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 6: not moving. So I think it's just obvious that we've

243
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 6: changed this a society, and screen time equates less time

244
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 6: in the real world, which equates to bad health.

245
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: Interesting, and to lay it out here, none of us

246
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: on this panel or doctors, I can confirm.

247
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 7: This is not medical advice. It's not medical advice.

248
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 2: But again, as a non doctor, Chris.

249
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 1: You know, every every time I see you're out on

250
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: the weekends playing sports with your kids running around, they're

251
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: probably not inside on screens all day watching TV. So yeah,

252
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: I think Alex has a has a good point. It's

253
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: probably not the screen specifically, it's the lifestyle that comes

254
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: with the screens. What are your thoughts as a dad

255
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: of younger kids.

256
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, you're probably gonna have to do another

257
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 5: disclaimer after I say what I'm gonna say, because personally,

258
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 5: I think that conservative parents are shying away from technology

259
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 5: and liberal parents are fine to give it to them.

260
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 5: And what else do we know about liberal parents while

261
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 5: they're probably getting their kids schmaccinated allegedly. I have no idea,

262
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 5: so maybe that plays a part in it. I do

263
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 5: worry about the smartphones. I don't give them to my kids.

264
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 5: When my kids want technology, I get them a game

265
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 5: Boy Color. I got an End sixty four. I'll go

266
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 5: with tech before they started programming it to hit the

267
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 5: dopamine receptors, which is really crazy. But if you look

268
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 5: at the suicide risks that are raised with kids that

269
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 5: have phones as young as five, it's insane. And to

270
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 5: Alex's point, yeah, the phones we had were dumb phones.

271
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 5: There are options out there. I'm not saying don't let

272
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 5: your kids have a device to keep in contact with you,

273
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 5: but you can find all sorts of wearables and technology

274
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 5: that you can make phone calls. And that's it, and

275
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 5: it's really all they need. Get them off the screens,

276
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 5: get them outside, touch grass, all the things.

277
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: Again, nobody here is a doctor, but you should definitely

278
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: one hundred percent take this severely needed medical advice from us.

279
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: Three quasi comedians on the screen. Alex and Chris will

280
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: be back right after the break to discuss the banning

281
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: of machetes in Australia because that's the problem that needs

282
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: fixing down under. Don't go away, we'll be right back

283
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: after the break.

284
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 8: You got to admire what you've been able to do,

285
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 8: not to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses.

286
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 9: At Turning Point USA. We spent thirteen years building the machine,

287
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 9: and last year we sought payoff. Our grassroots army is

288
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 9: making a real difference. Help us keep the momentum going.

289
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 9: Donate today and keep tp USA strong on campuses across America.

290
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 10: And for a gift of any amount, you'll receive your

291
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 10: big gov sucks cooler claim yours.

292
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 11: Today, President Trump signs an executive order holding bank companies

293
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 11: accountable for alleged discrimination against conservatives. A draft of this

294
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 11: order also directs bank regulators to investigate whether any of

295
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 11: these financial institutions like JP, Morgan, Chase, or Bank of

296
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 11: America may have violated the Equal Credit Opportunity Act or

297
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 11: consumer financial protections laws. Now, this new order threatens to

298
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 11: find lenders that drop their customers for political purposes, and

299
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 11: those found guilty of such practices could be subject to

300
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 11: financial penalties, consent decrees, or other disciplinary measures. This executive

301
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 11: order comes as many Americans claim they were debanked by

302
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 11: their lenders for political purposes. For example, business owner doctor

303
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 11: Joseph mccola claims his Chase Bank accounts were suddenly terminated

304
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 11: without explanation after his vocal criticism of the COVID vaccine.

305
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 11: The Heritage Foundation also claims this debanking phenomenon under former

306
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 11: President Biden hit the crypto world hard as well, alleging

307
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 11: the SEC unleashed multiple investigations with the intent to threaten

308
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 11: or force innovators and investors out of the space. Even

309
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 11: Resident Trump admitted his bank was terminating his account during

310
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 11: the twenty twenty election that.

311
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 12: Many many accounts loaded up with cash. I was loaded

312
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 12: up with cash, and they tell me, I'm sorry, sir,

313
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 12: we can't have you. You have twenty days to get out.

314
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 11: Even First Lady Malania Trump claims in her memoir that

315
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 11: her longtime bank terminated her account and her son Baron

316
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 11: was denied the opportunity to open a new one, while

317
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 11: CEO's moynihan and Diamond insists they don't discriminate or d bank.

318
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: We have seventy million customers and we're happy to serve anybody.

319
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 5: We don't de bank people because of the political religious affiliations.

320
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 7: What's your message.

321
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 4: But there are a lot of things that can be fixed.

322
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 13: We should fix them.

323
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 11: Many feel that trust could be restored due to this

324
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 11: executive order from the White House forefront lines with turning point,

325
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 11: I'm Monica page.

326
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: A while back, Australia famously banned guns after mass shooting

327
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: because guns were the problem one hundred percent, so guns

328
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: needed to get banned. Well, now they have a stabbing problem.

329
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: They have having knife violence problem in Australia. So rather

330
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: than address these sociological cultural variables that allow people to

331
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: think that it's okay to hurt other people. Let's ban knives. Also,

332
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: let's bring back our panel. Chris hand Alex Stein, Guys,

333
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: I thought this was a hilarious, hilarious in a horrifying

334
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: way video that's been floating around the internet. Check this

335
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: out and I'd love your reactions on Australia's banning of machetes.

336
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: Check us out.

337
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 14: From the first of September, when the ban on machetes

338
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 14: takes place, we are rolling out through Victoria Police at

339
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 14: twenty four to seven police stations the safe disposal bins.

340
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 15: People can come and lawfully dispose of any machete that

341
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 15: they may already have. And we've done this because we

342
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 15: want to get these knives off the streets, because these

343
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 15: knives destroy live.

344
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: Yep, it's it's the knives.

345
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: I hate it when my knife is on the kitchen

346
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: table and it jumps up and stabs someone.

347
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 2: That's just I hate that. Chris.

348
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: So, Australians in the state of Victoria have until September

349
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: one to have amnesty by submitting their knives to one

350
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: of forty disposable bins. How much participation do you think

351
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: this is gonna get in Australia.

352
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 5: Well, I just think it's hilarious that this benevolent government

353
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 5: thinks that banning knives, giving you a few months to

354
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 5: do so is just very kind. I wonder what they're

355
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 5: gonna do with the giant spiders though, I do think

356
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 5: you need machetes to handle some of the giant spiders

357
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 5: in Australia and some of the other terrifying wildlife. But

358
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 5: this is exactly what we've seen in so many other countries.

359
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 5: How long until they start doing the QR codes on

360
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 5: their knives like.

361
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 4: They do in Japan? Been the knife?

362
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 5: This always seems to happen that evil people are gonna

363
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 5: do evil things at the end of the day, and

364
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 5: the instrument is just the instrument. When they get rid

365
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 5: of the knives, well then they'll go to a car

366
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 5: and we'll see what happens. Ban cars next in Australia.

367
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 5: What does kel she say or polymarket? Probably they probably would.

368
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to get there from a green

369
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,719
Speaker 1: energy climate change standpoint, Alex So this is really interesting

370
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: to me machetes specifically. I'm Someone and my dad was

371
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: born in Someone. We went back there a couple of

372
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 1: years ago and they had a rack of machetes just

373
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: in the grocery store checkout line. You know how you

374
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,360
Speaker 1: see like People magazine or the New York Post or tabloids, there.

375
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 2: Was a rack of machetes. Famous nobody got stabbed there.

376
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 2: Why why do you think that is?

377
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, obviously I'm pro gone I want more guns.

378
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 7: I think more guns actually create less gun violence.

379
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 6: But the reason why I did, nobody gets statished, because

380
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 6: let's be real, why do people get stated they get

381
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 6: caught shooting on their wives.

382
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 7: You know, people get statis because they get something wrong.

383
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 7: It's not the wives fault. You know, they got stabed.

384
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 6: They shouldn't have been caught with a mistress. So I

385
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 6: guess when it comes to Australia, I love my Australian

386
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 6: brothers and sister so very much, but you know, you

387
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 6: saw what they did during the pandemic.

388
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 7: They were, you know, one of the harshest lockdowns in

389
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 7: the world. So I'm actually not surprised that.

390
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 6: You know, whenever you trade your freedom for protection with

391
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 6: the government, you always end up with neither. So they're

392
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 6: not even be able to cut the brush of the

393
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 6: bushdown very soon in Australia.

394
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, again, it is a cultural problem. Try fixing the

395
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 1: culture rather than banning a thing. An inanimate object that,

396
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: unfortunately can you know, obviously get in the hands of

397
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: the wrong person, can can be bad.

398
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 2: But it's not the thing.

399
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: It's the person speaking of the person in the culture

400
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: that I thought, this is really interesting, Alex. This whole

401
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: buy now, pay later has been a topic of discussion

402
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,880
Speaker 1: for the last couple of months. People can effectively finance

403
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: a burrito on the Chipotle app. If you're gonna order burrito,

404
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 1: you can do bind out pay later in four installments,

405
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: and people are doing it. The reason I bring this

406
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: up is because NBC had a article that said these

407
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: are tips to smartly handle your buy now, pay later says,

408
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: focus on needs it versus once, pause before perch, read

409
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: the fine print, and avoid stacking buy now, pay later loans.

410
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: Do you think that's effective or should we just say, hey,

411
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: stop buying things you can't afford.

412
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 6: You know, I really was a huge culture shock the

413
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 6: first time I saw that. Rent a Center, one of

414
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 6: the most famous you know, buy here, pay later furniture stores,

415
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 6: they started doing layaway for Jordan's. I don't know if

416
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 6: you ever saw that where they're actually selling you know, George. Yes,

417
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 6: this is a it's a famous thing you can look

418
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 6: out for. Rent to center was, you know, selling these

419
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 6: buy here, pay later tennis shoes, and I thought, man,

420
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 6: this is like the bottom of society. You know, now

421
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 6: we're financing you know, Jordan tennis shoes. But now the

422
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 6: fact that we're financing Chipotle burritos, I have to get

423
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 6: my conspiracy tinfoil had on. You know, this is done

424
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 6: on purpose because they want people to have horrible credit

425
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,880
Speaker 6: scores at a very you know, early age and their

426
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 6: credit history so that those people don't get money from

427
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 6: banks or aren't able to buy a home, so that

428
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 6: they are, like I said earlier, they can't be a

429
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 6: part of the middle class.

430
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 7: They have to be on governmentssistance the rest of their lives.

431
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 6: So this is done on purpose to try to make

432
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 6: it harder for buyers.

433
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 7: In the future, you know, to have good credit.

434
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 6: Because I think I saw I forget which company it

435
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 6: was that is doing this by here pay later on

436
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 6: these small you know, price transactions whatever it's called.

437
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 7: I think they were like three hundred million dollars in debt,

438
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 7: I believe, so don't call me on that.

439
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 6: But I don't think this has been financially beneficial for

440
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 6: the loan givers.

441
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: I want to say it was four hundred million dollars

442
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: and they, yeah, they couldn't recoup all of the stuff

443
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: that they were lending stuff out for because you can't

444
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: repoll it. Like Chris, you can repoe a car, you

445
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 1: can evict somebody from a house and foreclothes on it.

446
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: You can't repoe a burrito unless you're weird and into

447
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: some pretty sadistic stuff, you know. To Alex's point, do

448
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: you think this is kind of like on purpose to

449
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: kind of diminish people's ability to finance bigger and more

450
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: necessary necessary things in the future. You'll you'll own nothing

451
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: and enjoy it type of mentality.

452
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 5: I think Alex actually makes a great point. Debt slavery

453
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 5: is not a conspiracy theory. We see it happen to

454
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 5: college kids every year as they walk across that aisle

455
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 5: for graduation. I would go a step further and I

456
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 5: would say, you know, take away even the buy now,

457
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 5: pay later. Poor people shouldn't be using Uber Eats and

458
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 5: door Dash for starters. Go pick it up on your own.

459
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 5: Let's be perfect less make a sandwich. I remember when

460
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 5: I was struggling in radio and trying to make it.

461
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 4: I went for a week eating.

462
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 5: Stale taco shells in salsa, and like you had to.

463
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 4: Go through that.

464
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 5: You had to experience that, and it got me to

465
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 5: a better place. If I could have financed a burrito,

466
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 5: I would have and I would have been in debt

467
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 5: and I wouldn't have been able to climb that ladder

468
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 5: to where I am now, owning.

469
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 4: A home, having a wife, having kids.

470
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 5: No, you shouldn't be using any of this stuff period

471
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 5: if you're not financially stable, let alone the buy now,

472
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 5: pay later.

473
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 4: Aspect of it.

474
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 5: You're screwing yourself if you were a college kid, if

475
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 5: you're a young person, because that's who they're targeting. Really,

476
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 5: you're screwing yourself using this stuff, whether it's buy now,

477
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 5: pay later, or using it just at face value.

478
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, what I heard from that is having a wife

479
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: as a financial decision. Interesting and I don't necessarily disagree,

480
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: but a topic for a different time. Alex and Chris, guys,

481
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: thanks so much for your input. Really appreciate you taking

482
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: the time and joining the show.

483
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 7: Thanks, thank you for having me.

484
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: Thank you coming up next year in turning point Tonight,

485
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: We've got a fascinating clip from Box Clark's Culture Apothecary

486
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: podcast produced by Turning Point USA rank number one, a

487
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: bunch of the health and wellness space podcasts.

488
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 2: Don't go all be right back after this.

489
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,239
Speaker 8: Got to admire what you've been able to do, not

490
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 8: to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses.

491
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 9: At Turning Point USA, we've spent thirteen years building the machine,

492
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 9: and last year we sought payoff. Our grassroots army is

493
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 9: making a real difference. Help us keep the momentum going.

494
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 9: Donate today and keep TPUSA strong on emphasis across America, and.

495
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 10: For a gift of any amount, you'll receive your big

496
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 10: GOV Sucks Cooler claim yours today.

497
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 16: Every day I get asked, Alex when it comes to

498
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 16: eating better, living cleaner, I'm overwhelmed. I don't know where

499
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 16: to start. And it also can't be too expensive and

500
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 16: it can't be too complicated. So what is your answer

501
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 16: for people like.

502
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 17: That make sustainable habits, create a program that works for you,

503
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 17: that works for your family, that fits your budget. I

504
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 17: will say the first week is always going to be

505
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 17: more expensive. Adding in those seeds, in those healthy oils.

506
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 17: There's a cost to that, but they last and so

507
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 17: after that usually the grocery list evens out, and that's

508
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 17: something I'm really considerate of with people. Repeat meals, don't

509
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 17: let anything go to waste. That's the key sustainable habits.

510
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 16: What is an integrative nutritionist and what is your food philosophy?

511
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 17: I think anybody you ask would probably give you a

512
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 17: different answer, But my answer what an integrative nutrition is

513
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 17: means I'm looking at the mind, the body, and the spirit.

514
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 17: And sometimes when I work with somebody, it's all spiritual.

515
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 17: Sometimes when I work with somebody, it's all emotional. Sometimes

516
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 17: when I work with somebody, it's all clinical. So the

517
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 17: bioindividualized approach using all different kinds of quote unquote medicine,

518
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 17: anything from like Chinese iervidic, biomolecular to traditional functional. I

519
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 17: say traditional functional because functional medicine has been so popular

520
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 17: and I don't even like the word medicine necessarily, but

521
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 17: that's what it's referred to as. So I really integrate

522
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 17: what people need to support their whole body. One of

523
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 17: my favorite methods, which I hope we get into later,

524
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 17: is iovidic because I want to tell you more about yourself.

525
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't know any word. I don't even know

526
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 16: what it means.

527
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 17: Okay, so Irvidic is ancient medicine. It comes from like

528
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 17: six thousand years ago. It was written not even in scrolls,

529
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 17: but like in trees. But my favorite part of iervidic

530
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 17: is that we're responsible for supporting our bodies, for bringing

531
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 17: balance to the body, and so many people bypass that

532
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 17: by trying to supplement symptoms or supplement in general. So

533
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 17: Irvidic is like, how do we restore the body that

534
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 17: we're given with the elements that the body is And

535
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 17: so it sounds like wo woo when you think of

536
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 17: it that way, but even Western culture adopted the philosophy

537
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 17: when it came to assessing criminals. So there's a irevidic

538
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 17: Dosha body type, and then there's this somatic bodype or

539
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 17: not somatic that's nervous system somo typing when it comes

540
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 17: to assessing criminals. So it's ironic that we adopted this

541
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 17: body type when it comes to assessing criminals. But there's

542
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 17: three different body types and they are each made up

543
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 17: of different elements, and based on the elements that the

544
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 17: body type is made up with, is how you rebalance

545
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 17: and restore the body like certain body types should never

546
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 17: in a million year's cold plunge ever.

547
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 18: Ever, ever, who I knew it? I knew it.

548
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 16: I have been infected this from day one, that cold

549
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 16: plunge will be terrible for me. And I've and telling

550
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 16: people I don't think, oh women should be cold plunging.

551
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 17: Exactly, And you're a hundred percent right, a Vata woman,

552
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 17: you long lean air is your element, should never cold punch.

553
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 16: Ever, would that be the case for anybody with autoimmune

554
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 16: I will.

555
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 17: Say that most thyroid hashimotos and other autoimmune related to

556
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 17: that are Vata body types, so they all they do

557
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 17: go hand in hand. Yes, for most people with certain

558
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 17: autoimmune they shouldn't. But the pitta and the kaffa, those

559
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 17: are the other two body types. A pitta is really strong.

560
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 17: A lot of business owners go getters. Fire is the element, okay,

561
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 17: and then the kafa is wood water goes with the flow,

562
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 17: always pleasing others, but tends to be a little bit bulkier.

563
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 18: They can cold punge, okay. The pitta needs to cold plunge.

564
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 17: That's why those are the people that are raping about

565
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 17: it and trying to get everybody to buy one, because

566
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 17: they're a pitta and they need to put their fire out,

567
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 17: but a vata and air doesn't need to be any

568
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 17: colder than you already are.

569
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 16: Okay, this is fascinating, Yet I feel like you could

570
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 16: do a whole episode just on this.

571
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 17: I know, and I was like holding out on telling you.

572
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 17: So my food philosophy in the feel good way that

573
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 17: you will find that I've been teaching for seventeen years.

574
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,239
Speaker 17: Part of what I learned was because I was a

575
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 17: female college athlete and I wanted to take that performance

576
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 17: energy into everyday life because I thought, doesn't everybody.

577
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:19,959
Speaker 18: Want to perform?

578
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 17: And the more I'm around people that are business owners

579
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 17: or you know, want to feel good at their daily jobs.

580
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 18: Everybody wants to perform. Everybody wants to have energy.

581
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 17: So I built the feel good philosophy seventeen years ago

582
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 17: and it still stands. So it's eating within the hour

583
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 17: of waking up, always combining all three macros carbs, fats, proteins.

584
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 17: My philosophy for a cycling woman is fifty percent carbs,

585
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 17: twenty to thirty percent fat, twenty to thirty percent protein.

586
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 17: And the way this looks is the palm of the

587
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 17: hand carbs, the fists, protein, and the thumb fat because

588
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 17: the fat is twice as nutrient dense. Oh and I'm

589
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 17: not saying we should limit ourselves to that. This is

590
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 17: a range, it's a road map, but not necessarily hard

591
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 17: fast rules. I just think that cycling women tend to

592
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 17: under eat carbs because it's kind of the trend.

593
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 16: So that's definitely what I'm doing, and it's not my choice.

594
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 16: It's just I think I'm struggling getting enough carbs because

595
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 16: I was told by so many people I need to

596
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 16: be gluten free. So then I'm not eating a lot

597
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 16: of bread, right, And I feel like I am somebody

598
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 16: that would love a huge, heaping pile of grass fed

599
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 16: butter on top of some bread and soured oat bread,

600
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 16: and now I can't eat that. So it's just like, Okay,

601
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 16: is it potatoes or is it rice? I mean, are

602
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 16: actions I'm trying, But it's just like every meal.

603
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 17: I mean, there is a bread company that I love

604
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 17: out of Colorado that's like so worth ordering as much

605
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 17: as you can fit.

606
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 18: In your freezer. Yeah, tell me outside the bread box.

607
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 17: Okay, they have vegan oat If you do good with oats,

608
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 17: I don't do good with oats as oatmeal personally, but

609
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 17: I do good with oats baked in things.

610
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 18: Got their bread tastes like a croissant. I'm not joking. Okay,

611
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 18: sanches with it. You can do all kinds of things.

612
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 19: Now.

613
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 16: I love AWG. I've talked about them on the show

614
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 16: before that she makes a phenomenal gluten free bread that's

615
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 16: actually it is the only gluten free bread that I

616
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 16: will eat. Every All of them I think are the

617
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,959
Speaker 16: nasty carbs. But yeah, so that doesn't count as carbs.

618
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 16: So and then I had this woman, Sue Becker, who

619
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 16: was wildly popular, saying it's not gluten nobody has to

620
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 16: be gluten free. You have to mill your own flour, right,

621
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 16: And I don't disagree with that. Okay, So you think

622
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 16: that there could be truth to that.

623
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 17: I think there could be truth to that for people

624
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 17: that are intolerant and people that aren't trying to be

625
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 17: in a healing phase. So there's a difference between like

626
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 17: being in a healing phase and being all in on

627
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 17: your choices with your food and maintaining. So if you

628
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 17: were to get because are you Hashi motos, yeah, okay,

629
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 17: So if you were to get that in remission, then

630
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 17: I would say that you could totally have it, and

631
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 17: I would even say that you could have long fermented

632
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 17: sour though that's the trend that icy in my own community.

633
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 17: At least eating within the hour of waking up, always

634
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 17: regulating your blood, sugar bite, all three macros together, eating

635
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 17: every four hours. Again, women still cycling postmenopause can get

636
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 17: away with five hours, so it's going to be three

637
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 17: to four meals a day for most women. Keeping meal

638
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 17: size is consistent. This is one thing I don't see.

639
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 17: The only exception if you're going all in on iervidic

640
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 17: and your Dosha body type is some of us need

641
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 17: a way bulkier lunch than any other meal, which is

642
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 17: ironic because we're told to bulk the breakfast. But I've

643
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 17: noticed a huge shift in my afternoon energy by bulking

644
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 17: the lunch. And when I say bulking, I mean like

645
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 17: one hundred calories extra. So keeping meal size is consistent,

646
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 17: no small snacks. Eating five different colors a day. Having

647
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 17: the different colors fills your gut with a diverse microbiome,

648
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 17: but also different antioxidants and different phytonutrients. Each different color

649
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 17: has its own set of nutrients that it's offering, So

650
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 17: eating the different colors of the rainbow makes a big

651
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 17: difference for anti aging, for energy, for gut diversity and

652
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 17: all these amazing things.

653
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 16: Okay, So on that kind of a weird question that

654
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 16: just popped into my head. Would sometimes it be good

655
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 16: to opt for the purple potatoes rather than the yellow potatoes.

656
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 18: So that really does make a difference. It does make

657
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 18: a difference.

658
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 17: And the other fun thing about potatoes and like apples,

659
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 17: is the flesh and the.

660
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 18: Flesh and the skin both count as the skin the

661
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 18: corpse all in flesh and skin. Okay, it's two different colors.

662
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,479
Speaker 17: If they are two different colors, don't go eating your

663
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 17: banana peels, okay.

664
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 16: And then also, this is interesting to me that you

665
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 16: said about the a thumb size of fat with every meal.

666
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 16: So to me, I'm like, oh my gosh, I have

667
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 16: to eat like a whole avocado to get my fat.

668
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 16: But you're saying it's it was double Your fat is

669
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 16: double and neutreat and density or something like that.

670
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 18: Okay.

671
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 16: So then for a meal, if I just cook the

672
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 16: protein and beef tallow, does that count.

673
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 13: For fat or no?

674
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 18: Yes, it does count for fat, okay.

675
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 17: And it's like, again, it's not a hard fast rule,

676
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 17: but I do feel like it helps for people to

677
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 17: have a visual of what their plate is supposed to

678
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 17: look like. Yes, so they're not measuring their food, they're

679
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 17: not counting, they're not obsessing over it.

680
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 18: It's more intuitive.

681
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 13: Okay.

682
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 16: So literally, I don't know anything about fat.

683
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 18: It is butter, Yeah, butter.

684
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 4: Okay, so butter, beef towel.

685
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 18: I'll cut of what else? Seeds all of our oils?

686
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:10,239
Speaker 18: What does that mean?

687
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 17: Seeds like pepita or pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, hemp seeds,

688
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 17: you know, stuff we sprinkle on top of our meals

689
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 17: or add to our smooth these flax seeds, all of that.

690
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 16: Kind of okay, fat, how do you put seeds on

691
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 16: just like a you know, a regular dinner plate.

692
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 18: So like a surfry Okay, I don't know if you

693
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 18: ever make a surfry.

694
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 17: It's five minute dinner, it's one of our go to's

695
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 17: in our house, or a sheet pan dinner. And then

696
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 17: sprinkle it with some hemp seeds or sesame seeds or

697
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 17: even cashoes, crumbled up cashews. That's another way to get

698
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 17: in your fat. I know some people don't necessarily cook

699
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 17: with their fat. Because they'd rather add it and have

700
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 17: a little bit more control over it. I'm not that

701
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 17: obsessive when it comes to like the ranges. I just

702
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 17: know that for a fact that if we don't combine

703
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 17: our carbs with our fats and our protein every single

704
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 17: time we eat, we're gonna be dealing with an irregular

705
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 17: blood sugar. And when it comes to our bodies, the

706
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 17: key to maintaining.

707
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 18: Metabolic health is blood sugar.

708
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 17: And it's mind blowing that God gave us these bodies

709
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 17: with no guide, and this is such a vital.

710
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 18: Way to live. But people do it all the time

711
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 18: everywhere I go.

712
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 17: I'm like, it's so hard for me to not observe,

713
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 17: especially kids, because I have four kids, and I'm with

714
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 17: kids all the time. Eating carbs by themselves, and an

715
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 17: unstable blood sugar leads to metabolic dysfunction majorly, but minorly,

716
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 17: it leads to mood swings, it leads to hormone issues,

717
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 17: it leads to heightened emotions, it leads to stored fat.

718
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 18: It has to be to low energy.

719
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,680

00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 1: that said something along liides of like, hey, there's just

756
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: a picture of the Supreme Court. There's just a regular

757
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: picture of the Supreme Court. I should have brought it on,

758
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,959
Speaker 1: but I didn't think about it in time.

759
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 2: It's just it was the Supreme Court.

760
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: But for some reason, Kantaji Brown Jackson had a dunce

761
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 1: hat on her head. I don't know why that would

762
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 1: have happened or why that would be there, but I

763
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: don't know. Pretty accurately describes the newest member of the

764
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: land's highest court, so anyways, email tpt at tpusa dot com. Now,

765
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: there's we had a little bit of a filming issue.

766
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: I think it was on Wednesday. There was a live.

767
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 2: Event going on.

768
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: It kind of overlapped our show, and that's totally fine,

769
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 1: that happens, it's TV.

770
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 2: What are you gonna do?

771
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: But there were several videos that I think we aired

772
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: there that I really really wanted to make sure we

773
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: got on and so I want to play them for

774
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 1: you today. And if you've seen them twice, you've seen

775
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 1: them on social media. Sorry, but it's just they were

776
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: too good to pass up. This first clip is of

777
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: a it looks like a brother and a sister talking

778
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 1: about real life things in terms of men and women.

779
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: And I can't tell what's going on here. I'm completely

780
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: honest with you. I'm not sure if he's joking, or

781
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 1: if she is really like, oh, this whole thing doesn't

782
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: make sense, or if he doesn't know that she's at

783
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: it's a whole kind of concluded thing. I don't entirely

784
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: know how to take it in. All that I know

785
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,879
Speaker 1: is that it's great that this has happened. I watched this.

786
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 20: Should men and women both be drafted in the war.

787
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:21,280
Speaker 20: If there's a World War three that happens. I guess

788
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 20: you think both should be drafted.

789
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 9: Draft It means like you have.

790
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: To I know, I know what drafted is.

791
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 20: Oh okay, I mean like equality. I guess so, so

792
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 20: you think they should just drop off a form at

793
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 20: everybody's store and be like, if your kid's over eighteen,

794
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 20: they have to go to war.

795
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: Good wanted this though?

796
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 12: Who did the women?

797
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 9: No thing didn't want it.

798
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 21: Equal rights. If somebody can vote, they can vote.

799
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 18: If someone goes to war, which is hard, someone.

800
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,720
Speaker 1: Goes for but men are bigger.

801
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 20: So then they're like, like, so now you're mean sexist?

802
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 13: What No, in.

803
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 4: Theory, you're right, but no.

804
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 20: Theory, it could also be wrong.

805
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: You're a sexist girl. Okay, summ right in rewatching it,

806
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 1: I think think what's actually happening is both of them, thankfully,

807
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: are stumbling their way into the reality that the whole

808
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: woke ideology is just ridiculous. He is going, hold on,

809
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 1: hold on, no, no, no, all of these people at

810
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: my school, and unfortunately keeps telling me that everybody is

811
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: exactly the same. There's no difference between men and women.

812
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 1: Anything that a man can do a woman can do,

813
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: and anything a woman can do, a man can do,

814
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: including give birth. So yeah, you should go to war

815
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: and get drafted. And I think she is realizing this

816
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: looks like his sister going, no, whoa hold on, we

817
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: want to you know, all the same thing. But except

818
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: for that, I don't want to do that because well

819
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: that if I'm smaller than men. And regardless of if

820
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 1: either of them are joking or serious, again, I can't

821
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: really tell. I think the main point is that they're

822
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: both finding their way to reality, which isn't that what

823
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: conservatism is the acknowledgment that it reality exists and trying

824
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: to maneuver policy and lifestyle and culture in a way

825
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 1: that fits into what already exists in reality and in

826
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: human nature. And you kind of find that out by

827
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: going through life, and you kind of figure that out organically.

828
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: If you just questioned the mantras of the lives.

829
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,800
Speaker 2: Men and women are exactly the same. There's no physical differences.

830
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 2: A man can be a woman, abortion isn't murder. All

831
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,280
Speaker 2: of these things that they say.

832
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 1: The more that you puzzle through them, the more that

833
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 1: you start to realize, holy cow, none of it actually

834
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: makes any sense. I gotta get to this next clip.

835
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: I'm sorry for having to make you listen to forty

836
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: seconds of Jasmine Crockett, but watch till the very end.

837
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Congresswoman Crockett forgot this lady's name. Just

838
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: just watch it. I want to know if you agree

839
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: with me.

840
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 2: Check it out.

841
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 19: I am Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, but I am standing

842
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,280
Speaker 19: here with one of my things.

843
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen and guess what.

844
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 19: Neither one of us are in Texas. You know why,

845
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 19: because we know that it is time to stand up,

846
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 19: rise up, and fight back against these fools that think

847
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:03,800
Speaker 19: that we're weak.

848
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 11: One thing that they.

849
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 19: Should know when it comes to a black woman and

850
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 19: a Latina, that's right, they are about to get a

851
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 19: little spice, okay, And that's exactly what they got. So

852
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 19: right now, we are fighting for our rights in this country.

853
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 19: We are fighting for democracy, and I just want you

854
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 19: all to know that I'm standing ten toes down with

855
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 19: my homie be representative from the great state of Texas.

856
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 7: That's right.

857
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: Yes, I think she clearly forgot that woman's name, and

858
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: I don't blame her for having.

859
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 2: To take the video. You kind of in these situations.

860
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,760
Speaker 1: You kind of you talk about different things with different people,

861
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: and some people are lying, some people aren't. I understand

862
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: all of that, but clearly that was the situation that

863
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 1: happened there. And in the process of doing this video,

864
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 1: poor old Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett just completely forgot that lady's name.

865
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:53,359
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, I don't know her name either.

866
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: This is it doesn't matter, and that's you know, that's that.

867
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: But that's going to do it for us here at

868
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 1: turning point tonight. Have a great weekend. We'll see a Monday.

869
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 1: Charlie's gone take us out.

870
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 2: God bless America and.

871
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 4: Russell.

872
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 9: Great to see you. Thanks for being here.

873
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 13: It's so lovely to see you.

874
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 4: So I've so much to talk about. Here are you

875
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 4: hearing around a Bible?

876
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 21: That's my Bible in one year from our daily readings,

877
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 21: and I thought it was very apposite that today we've

878
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 21: transitioned out of Acts and into Romans one because on

879
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 21: our previous conversation, which was in Milwaukee the RNC, you

880
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 21: said to me that Romans is the Christian constitution. This

881
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 21: is from my friend Jay John.

882
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 4: I like it.

883
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,479
Speaker 21: It's old and New Testament. It's very easy to carry

884
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 21: around and read. These are just some of my notes

885
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 21: in preparation for the interview.

886
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 13: Note one insure.

887
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 21: Guantanamo gator present in front row.

888
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 13: This will distract Charlie.

889
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 21: No, there's just like lot of actually notes about Rome

890
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 21: itself and Caravagia and stuff like that. So, yeah, I

891
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 21: carry two Bibles, which recognize it's quite cumbersome. But I've

892
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,760
Speaker 21: not been Christian very long, so what do you expect?

893
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 9: And so, Russell, you have a phenomenal story, and thank

894
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 9: you for taking time to travel to this conference.

895
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 4: It's terrific.

896
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 13: Thanks for paying me to come.

897
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 9: Yeah, no, absolutely, well, thank you for gladly accepting. So

898
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 9: you were in public eye. You still are in a

899
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 9: non Christian lifestyle, is that fair to say?

900
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 13: Almost anti Christian in some ways.

901
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,959
Speaker 9: Walk us through the journey as you're comfortable sharing from

902
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 9: that lifestyle to now giving your life to Jesus Christ.

903
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 21: Well, you know, in a sense, we have no choice

904
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 21: but to worship something. And my devoutness and devotion was

905
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 21: effortlessly directed by the culture and by my conditions I

906
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 21: mean familial and psychological as well as social towards worship

907
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 21: and reverence of the individual, which I see as being

908
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 21: the nexus of false idolatry. Really, as long as you're

909
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 21: trapped in self worshiping yourself, aspects of yourself, self aggrandizement,

910
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 21: pursuit of personal glory, you're very easily contained by the culture.

911
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 21: In a sense, I've started to recognize that the culture

912
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 21: once it's in a state of self centered bewilderment. When

913
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 21: you're in that state, you're very easy to manage and manipulate.

914
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 21: I really thought that I was autonomous and had a

915
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 21: great deal of personal authority. In fact, I would have

916
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 21: believed in the kind of rags to riches idea that

917
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 21: I come from a pretty modest background and through success

918
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 21: and endeavor and hard work, and through personal excellence and

919
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 21: nobility and charm moxy, call it what you will, I

920
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 21: fought against the odds to become a Hollywood star and

921
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 21: marry Katie Perry and beyond red carpets all over the

922
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 21: place for a brief while I lived with the guantanamogator.

923
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 13: It was a complicated era.

924
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 21: That's how I would have characterized it, Charlie, as I

925
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 21: loved that one, yeah, and I kept it quite as embarrassed.

926
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 21: I would have characterized it as a sort of a

927
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 21: story of personal success, and I didn't.

928
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 13: This is how I came to realize this. I was

929
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:04,799
Speaker 13: looking at the work of u.

930
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 21: Val know Harari, the writer of Sapiens, which I've found

931
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 21: perfectly enjoyable, till it became clear to me it was

932
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 21: an atheistic trope that was geared towards directing people towards

933
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 21: surrender and subjugation, towards ai force idol.

934
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 4: That's what it was.

935
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 13: It was, wasn't it. And I thought, Oh, the reason

936
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 13: this guy is such.

937
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 21: Popular and accredited intellectual is because his message and agenda

938
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 21: fits very neatly into the agenda of powerful elites who

939
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 21: determine which cultural artifacts get celebrated and popularized. I didn't

940
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,839
Speaker 21: realize that at first, and then afore, I wonder if

941
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,280
Speaker 21: you were that. I wonder if there was something about

942
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 21: your success, Russell, that was telling the culture a story

943
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 21: that he wanted to hear. And then I thought about

944
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 21: it for a while, because it is, after all, my

945
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 21: favorite subject me. And while I was thinking about that,

946
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 21: fort oh, yeah, it was my personal hedonism and my

947
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 21: sense of myself as self actualizing through excess.

948
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 13: That's a story the culture likes to tell itself.

949
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,280
Speaker 21: So really, you were just the useful sort of vessel

950
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 21: or expression of a particular set of cultural ideas. I

951
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 21: came to Christ the way that some people do who

952
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 21: don't have the benefit of Christianity in early life, although

953
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 21: it happened obviously at the perfect time, through a variety

954
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 21: of collapses in my private and public life, sort of

955
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 21: a personal difficulty with the birth of my son, who's

956
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 21: beautiful and incredible and in doing very well, but certainly

957
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 21: was a crisis in our family for a minute, and

958
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 21: through false allegations of sexual misconduct, which gave me great

959
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 21: pause for reflection on the way that I'd lived for

960
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 21: a lot of time and the impact of that lifestyle.

961
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 21: And I suppose in the midst of all that confusion,

962
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 21: the clarity of Christ came in a way that's still

963
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 21: difficult to describe. But most recently I felt Charlie when

964
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 21: reading I was looking at Acts.

965
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,959
Speaker 13: And it talked about the meeting of Paul and Peter.

966
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 21: So I went to check it in Galatians, the same encounter,

967
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 21: and I thought, in that encounter between Paul and Peter,

968
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 21: you've got someone who knew Christ. While alone, I even

969
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 21: met the resurrected Christ as well as Paul who has

970
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 21: this profound.

971
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 13: Incredible vision re encounter with him thought.

972
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 21: And I had that kind of visceral wave of the

973
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 21: reality and truth of the historical Christ, not just the

974
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 21: mythic Christ that we need to use as a sort

975
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,760
Speaker 21: of an inner constellation for personal guidance.

976
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,320
Speaker 13: But oh my god, it actually happened. It actually happened.

977
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 21: And when I feel that, it brings me out of

978
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,400
Speaker 21: the hum drum, it brings me out of the central

979
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 21: and it puts me in the supernatural, where I believe

980
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 21: we must to some degree live in.

981
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 13: The world, not of yes.

982
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 9: And so I'm sure you tried Buddhism or do you

983
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 9: experiment with Easter and stuff? What made Christianity different?

984
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 21: The reason I was repulsed by Christianity initially was because

985
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 21: I felt like, this is the religion of like, you know,

986
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 21: like any ordinary American or my grandmother or my wife

987
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 21: is accessible to everyone. I must have something a little

988
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,360
Speaker 21: more esoteric, a little rarer, a little more hard or gnostic,

989
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 21: a little more gnostic and a little less conformist. I

990
00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 21: felt that, you know, Christianity and maybe institute. An argument

991
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 21: that could be had about whether institutional Christianity is used

992
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 21: as a kind of Panacea to prevent people being the

993
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 21: radical revolutionaries that I believe Our Lord would have us be.

994
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 21: And I when I like with things like Buddhism and Sufism,

995
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,440
Speaker 21: not then claiming to have had a deep understanding of

996
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 21: these faiths, just an autodidactic perusal of the books of

997
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 21: Sufiism and Hinduism and Buddhism and philosophy, although there were many,

998
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,960
Speaker 21: many truths that were discovered in them texts at the

999
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 21: center of those truths, Charlie, there I was still trapped

1000
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 21: in self. When I surrendered kind of voluntarily yet exhausted

1001
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:43,839
Speaker 21: to the man Christ, the flesh Christ, I realized, Ah, I.

1002
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:45,240
Speaker 13: Wanted to be Jesus.

1003
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 21: I wanted to be the center, the Son of God,

1004
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 21: the apex that yet I can't do miracles. I'm not

1005
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:56,479
Speaker 21: willing to be crucified now, since it's surrendering to Him,

1006
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 21: accepting Him, bowing at the foot of his cross on

1007
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 21: my knee, shoulder shoulder with any one.

1008
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 13: Of you that accepts Jesus alongside me.

1009
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 21: I feel relieved, I feel unburdened, I feel empowered, And

1010
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 21: I realized that the person that I used to be

1011
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,239
Speaker 21: was not an error or a mistake. But part of

1012
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 21: the unfolding way, as the early Christians called it. And

1013
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 21: I find it interesting that a lot of these ideas

1014
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 21: that I investigated, Dear Charlie, like Taoism, say, have embodied

1015
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 21: in them even semantically, notions that can be discovered in Christianity.

1016
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:34,520
Speaker 8: And got to admire what you've been able to do,

1017
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 8: not to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses.
