1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:00,640 Speaker 1: Welcome. 2 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 2: It is Verdict with Center. Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you. 3 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 2: It's nice to have you with us on this Monday 4 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 2: Morning Center. We've got a lot to talk about, including 5 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 2: as we speak, we're in a partial government shut down. 6 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: We're going to cover what that actually means. Plus we've 7 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 2: got two other big stories as well. 8 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 3: Well, that's right. We're gonna explain what is happening with 9 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 3: a shutdown, what's going to happen next, how long it's 10 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 3: going to last. We're also going to talk about the 11 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 3: fact that there was a landmark verdict for the first 12 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 3: time of an individual who transitioned. Had a young woman 13 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 3: who had both of her breasts removed in a transgender surgery, 14 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 3: who then realized it was a catastrophic mistake, and she 15 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 3: filed a lawsuit and ended up being awarded two million dollars, 16 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 3: the first ever verdict of its kind. We're going to 17 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 3: talk about the consequences of that as well. And finally, 18 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 3: we're going to talk about Donald Trump just this week 19 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 3: pulled out of sixty six different UN committees withdrawing US 20 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 3: from massive global entanglements. We're going to explain what that 21 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 3: means and why it's. 22 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be really interesting to hear that story. 23 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: It's going to also save Americans a lot of money. 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: So let's start with the government shut down, and this 25 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 2: is a partial government shutdown. The media is not playing 26 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: this up with all the fear mongering they did with 27 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 2: the last shutdown, partly because the Democrats didn't get what 28 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: they wanted out of the last government shutdown. They thought 29 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 2: it was going to help them significantly the polls, that 30 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: didn't really work out. So for Americans right now that 31 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: are waking up and they're like, all right, we got 32 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: a partial government shutdown. What does that actually mean for them? 33 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: What services could disappear? Are there going to be lines 34 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 2: at the airport? And how long could this last? 35 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 3: Well, listen, I think this is going to be very 36 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 3: short lived. It is a partial government shutdown. Much of 37 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 3: the government is funded already, and the way a government 38 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 3: shutdown operates is that any essential services are funded regardless, 39 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 3: and so what is temporarily shut down is what each 40 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: Cabinet agency deems a non essential service. I think at 41 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 3: the end of the day, this is going to last 42 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: a day or two at most. So what happened last 43 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: week is the Senate passed legislation funding the government, funding 44 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 3: the entirety of the government through the fiscal year except 45 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 3: for the Department of Homeland Security. The Department of Homeland Security, 46 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 3: it funded a two week continuing resolution that has gone 47 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: to the House. The House is back now Today is Monday. 48 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 3: The House will be back. I predict by Tuesday the 49 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: House will have passed that this and the President will 50 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 3: have signed it. So I think this shutdown will extend 51 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: a couple of days. By the way, it's worth noting 52 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 3: the government shuts down every weekend, and so the government 53 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 3: shut down on Sunday and nobody on planet Earth noticed. 54 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 3: I think we will see because Sunday people were at home, 55 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: they were going to church there with their families. They 56 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 3: were not expecting government offices to be open. So I 57 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 3: think it will be a very brief delay. I will 58 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: point out also that on Sunday, Steady Hope Kayer and 59 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 3: Jim Clyburn, both senior Democrats in the leadership of the House, 60 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 3: told House Democrat on their private caucus call that they 61 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 3: should vote yes to pass the government funding package this week. 62 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 3: And you know it's interesting that was sent out on 63 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 3: Twitter this weekend and lefties just lost their mind. I'm 64 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 3: going to read you the first couple of comments that 65 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: come off. The first says, this is getting ridiculous. These 66 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 3: people are rapists and murderers. Are they effing serious? Shut 67 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: it effing down at DNC. The second comment f No, 68 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: Stenny Hoyer and James Clyburn, you are not speaking for 69 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 3: your base, which is why your fundraising is down. No 70 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 3: funding for ICE until real reform. They're killing us and 71 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 3: you want to give them more money to do that. 72 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 3: I'm so tired of you. We are experiencing true evil. 73 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: Here's the fourth comment. What the literal F stop all caps, 74 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 3: exclamation mark, explanation mark, explation mark, exclamation mark. That sort 75 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 3: of gives you the flavor of the Twitter left wing glitterati. 76 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 3: But I think at the end of the day, you're 77 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 3: going to see a coalition of both Republicans and Democrats 78 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: in the House past this. And I think the shutdown 79 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: will very quickly become old news. 80 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: When you talk about services, just to put it in 81 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 2: perspective for people to understand, like things that you don't 82 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: have to worry about in this shutdown, Social Security, Medicare payments. 83 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 2: They're going to be paid on schedule and so this 84 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: can calm many people as well. Food stamps and wick 85 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 2: are going to not be impacted because those benefits got 86 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: funding through September of twenty twenty six. Medicare and Medicaid 87 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: health coverage still will work, so that's not gonna be 88 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: a problem. US mail service unaffected as well, and passport 89 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: and visa processing those are state departments. As our course, 90 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: services will continue, so that's not a problem either. Is 91 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: that part of the reason why you're not seeing as 92 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: big a maybe a throwdown by Democrats because what are 93 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 2: we really fighting over here? They can't weaponize a shutdown 94 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,119 Speaker 2: as much they did the last time. 95 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: Well, listen, part of the reason is Congress has already 96 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 3: passed a significant chunk of the funding for the federal government, 97 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 3: so it's a much smaller governm shutdown that happened previously. 98 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 3: Last year, Chuck Schumer and the Democrats forced the longest 99 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 3: government shut down in US history forty three days. They 100 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 3: did so really to throw a temper tantrum. They did 101 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 3: so to show their left wing base how much they 102 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 3: hate Donald Trump. They did so to show they are fighting. 103 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: And I got to say, one of the nightmares if 104 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 3: you're a big government Democrat. About the worst nightmare you 105 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 3: can imagine is the government shuts down and nobody notices. 106 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 3: The reality is, even in a full government shutdown, typically 107 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 3: about eighteen percent of the government shuts down, about eighty 108 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 3: two percent continues. Everything that's deemed essential continues, So so 109 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 3: security continues, Medicare continues, Medicaid continues, the military continues, law 110 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: enforcement continues, border security continues. The only things that shut 111 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 3: down during a shutdown are things that are deemed non essential. 112 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 3: Each cabinet secretary gets to make that determination. So typically 113 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 3: that's things like national parks, that's things like the Smithsonian Museums. 114 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 3: It's things that over time can get annoying. And by 115 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 3: the way, one of the biggest factors of annoyance are 116 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 3: that you have people like air traffic controllers who are 117 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: not paid. And over the extended government shutdown, the forty 118 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: three day Schumer shutdown, those air air traffic controllers got 119 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: pissed off and they didn't come into work, or a 120 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 3: fair number of them didn't, and so you ended up 121 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 3: having a lot of delays. So what is funded already 122 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: Department of Agricultures fund funded already, Commerce and Department of 123 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 3: Justice are funded Energy and Water, Interior Environment, Ledge Branch, 124 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 3: Military construction, and VA all of that is funded. So 125 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: what is affected by the temporary shutdown, Well, the Department 126 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 3: of War is but again as I said, our military 127 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 3: fighting forces are still continue to function. Department of Labor 128 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 3: and HHS. But again that that does not include Social Security, 129 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 3: Medicare and Medicaid, Apartment of Education, Department of Homeland Security, 130 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: but that is expected. And anything that is a law 131 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: enforcement function continues to ongo. The Department of State, Foreign 132 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 3: Ops is not funded. Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, Court funding, 133 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 3: SEC FCC, some of the independent agencies. But at the 134 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: end of the day, all of that is I think 135 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 3: not going to matter very much, because I fully expect 136 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: I will be surprised if by Tuesday evening the full 137 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 3: government is not funded. So I think this will be 138 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 3: short enough that nobody's going to notice. 139 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: I want to move to another big story center and 140 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: this is one that gives me genuine hope, and I 141 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: want to get your reaction to it as well. Over 142 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: what could be coming when it comes to the abuse 143 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 2: of children, I call it child body mutilation. With the 144 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: obsession over sex change and trans in your children, we've 145 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: seen this be a cash cow. Vanderbilt University got busted 146 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 2: on video talking about how they need to advocate for 147 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: this more with their transition center there and talking about 148 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: how much money they can make off kids if you 149 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: just get them in here, bring them to us, and 150 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: their lifetime treatment. Because your body is constantly trying to say, no, 151 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: this is not what I am. 152 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: When you go through these transitions. 153 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: You got to take all these pills and all of 154 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: this medicine and all these doctor visits, and they're like, dude, 155 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: this is seven figures and these kids come in here, 156 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: get as many as you can. 157 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: In essence, that backfired when it came out. 158 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: Publicly that that's what they were looking at these children as. 159 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: But we had something very big that happened, and that 160 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: is a child that has now been able to in essence, 161 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 2: sue and win for a what doctors and the mental 162 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: health people have literally done to her allowed to happen 163 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 2: to her. This is great news for I think, to 164 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 2: warn doctors that are in that are well claiming they're 165 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: helping people when they're really just mutilating them. This way, 166 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: you're on notice now you could be held accountable for 167 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: these actions. 168 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, my approach to this is number one quite libertarian, 169 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 3: and number two very focused on protecting kids. So, Ben, 170 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 3: you're a grown ass man. If you decide tomorrow you 171 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 3: want to be a chick, Okay, that's your choice. I 172 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 3: don't agree with it. I don't encourage it, but I 173 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 3: think that's fine. If you tell the world from now 174 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: on your Benjamina. Okay, that's fine. You can tell people that. 175 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 3: By the way, you don't have any right. 176 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 2: Such an eloquent job of always bringing me up in 177 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: these scenarios. Anytime there's a sense of subject like this, 178 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: I just feel good that you're gonna make sure you 179 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 2: somehow figure out a way that I am the example X. 180 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: But keep going. 181 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: I just think you illustrate this well. But look, if 182 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 3: you want to tell the world you want to call 183 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: yourself Benjamina, great, like you're an adult. You can make 184 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 3: that decision. What you don't have a right to to 185 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 3: do is make me call you Benjamina. I'd be like, Okay, 186 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: that's a little bit crazy. I bet I'm gonna call 187 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: you what I want to call like. You don't have 188 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 3: a right to control me. You control yourself. You don't 189 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 3: have a right to control me, And God forbid you 190 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 3: decide you want to do something radical, you want to 191 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 3: chop off body parts. 192 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: Look, I. 193 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: Very much disagree with that, but as I said, I'm 194 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: a libertarian, you're a grown ass man. If you want 195 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 3: to chop body parts off, you can do that. I 196 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 3: wish you wouldn't. I think they'd be unfortunate. But you 197 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: have the ability to make that decision. You know who 198 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 3: doesn't have that ability? Kids? Yeah, and I think the 199 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 3: idea that you take kids and sometimes we're seeing these 200 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 3: these four sex changes for kids as young as seven, eight, nine, 201 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: ten years old. No child has the maturity to decide 202 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 3: that he or she is going to make what could 203 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 3: be a permanent, life altering decision. Look, you look at 204 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: sex change operations. They can sterilize a child, whether it's 205 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 3: a little girl who suddenly thinks she's a boy or 206 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 3: little boy who thinks he's a girl. The chemicals they 207 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: that they give, or even worse, the surgery they give, 208 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 3: can permanently sterilize a child, can permanently deform a child. 209 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 3: And as I said, an adult can do that. If 210 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 3: you want to castrate yourself, I disagree with that decision, 211 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 3: it's the wrong decision, but an adult should be able 212 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 3: to make that decision. No kid has the maturity to 213 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 3: make that decision, and no parent should let them. You 214 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 3: and I are both parents of teenagers and your kids 215 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 3: are are you? How old are your kids now? They're young? 216 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 1: Mine are six six and my eldest is nine. 217 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, six and nine. And by the way, there are 218 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 3: kids this age that are being subjected to this. And 219 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: if you, as a parent, decided my kid wants to 220 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 3: do that, I'm gonna let them. I think that's child abuse. 221 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: If your kid's an adult and they make that decision, 222 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,599 Speaker 3: that's different. But what happened, and this is really significant, 223 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: last week that there was a case. So there was 224 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 3: a young woman who was sixteen years old and she 225 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 3: had both of her breasts removed. They were healthy, she 226 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 3: had them removed because she was supposedly transgender, and she 227 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: went and sued because as she grew up, she realized, wait, 228 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 3: I don't want to be a dude, and I'd really 229 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 3: like to have my breast back. And you know what, 230 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 3: once you have them removed, they're gone. They don't come back. 231 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 3: And so she filed a lawsuit and she was awarded 232 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 3: two million dollars. It's the first successful detransition or malpractice 233 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 3: lawsuit in the nation, and she sued both the psychologist 234 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 3: and the surgeon. And what is remarkable, do you know 235 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: what state the jury was in that awarded the. 236 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: Best part of the story for me, because it is 237 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: New York, right. 238 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 3: New York State, Westchester, New York. And you know what 239 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 3: the jury in New York said, Wait a second, You 240 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 3: had a healthy sixteen year old girl that these doctors 241 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 3: came in, convinced her that she was a dude, and 242 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: then cut both of her breasts off, pay her two 243 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 3: million dollars. That is a really significant threshold. I'm going 244 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: to predict right now this is not going to be 245 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: the last lawsuit. And you pointed out one of the 246 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 3: most evil aspects of this, which is there is a 247 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 3: multimillion dollar, if not a multi billion dollar industry behind this, 248 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: behind pushing these supposed treatments that are just abusing kids. 249 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: And you've got you've got woke adults that are pushing 250 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 3: these treatments because they want to virtue signal just how 251 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 3: virtuous they are. But you've also got hospitals, you've got 252 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 3: doctors that are making massive amounts of money, and this 253 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 3: lawsuit you want to talk about changing physician behavior and 254 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 3: changing hospital behavior. This lawsuit is significant the young girl. 255 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 3: It was reported that the young girl quote wept and 256 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: hugged her mother when the verse, which followed a three 257 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: week trial from a suit filed in twenty twenty three, 258 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 3: came down. And this is a big deal, and it's 259 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: a big deal that I'm hopeful will stop this abuse. 260 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 3: No kid should be sterilized, no matter what the parents think, 261 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 3: no matter what doctors think. No kids should be mutilated. 262 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 3: And you know what's astonishing, ben five years ago, everybody 263 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 3: would agreed with this. If you had a Democrat on 264 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 3: if you had picked the most left wing Democrat five 265 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: years ago, you and I could have been talking with 266 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 3: Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren and said, hey, should we 267 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 3: sterilize and mutilate kids? And they'd say no, of course, 268 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: not like that was. It was just a blink of 269 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 3: an eye ago that everyone agreed with this, and then 270 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 3: there were millions of dollars and the radical ideology of 271 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 3: the left. And to be clear, it's not just a 272 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 3: couple of people on the Democrat side, it's everybody. Joe 273 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 3: Biden is the sitting president, advocated mutial and sterilizing kids 274 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 3: in the name of gender ideology. And so this verdict is, 275 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: is I hope, a really significant step in turning around 276 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 3: this madness. 277 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 278 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 2: Not only is it a significant step, but this also 279 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: I think is going to inspire others and lawyers by 280 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 2: the way, to take on cases. As you mentioned, this 281 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: is historic first one ever when you see how it 282 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 2: was won. This now and you can give I think 283 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: more insight in this as a lawyer, other lawyers are 284 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: going to look at this case and go, Okay, can 285 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: I replicate this for a winning strategy. Here's almost the 286 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: blueprint print for these types of cases, And now other 287 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: lawyers around the country will probably be way more likely 288 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: to take on these types of cases because now they 289 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: understand A they can win and B there's a blueprint 290 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 2: of maybe how you want to run this case. 291 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? 292 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 3: You're not wrong? And I will say philosophically, as a conservative, 293 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 3: my approach to some of the extreme abuses we've seen is, 294 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: to quote mister Burns in the Simpsons release Pounds. I 295 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 3: think unleashing trial lawyers on these really bad actors is 296 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 3: a really potent tool. And so for every one of 297 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 3: these hospitals and doctors that are pushing this mutilation on kids. 298 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 3: I think the specter of there being sued into the 299 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 3: poorhouse is really powerful. By the way, it's the same 300 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 3: approach that I have a big tech engaging in censorship, 301 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 3: and I think we ought to change right now, there's 302 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 3: a provision called section two thirty the Communications Decency Act 303 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 3: that immunizes big tech from lawsuits almost across the board. 304 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: I have long advocated creating an exception to section two 305 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 3: thirty that if you engage in political censorship, you should 306 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 3: face lawsuits, and the only way to avoid those lawsuits 307 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 3: is to stop censorship and create a free speech town hall, 308 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 3: a town square. And it's very much the same philosoph 309 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 3: which is unleashing trial lawyers can inflict enormous costs and burdens. 310 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: I don't want to do so. More broadly, I don't 311 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 3: want to do so on job creators. I don't want 312 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 3: to do so in a way that hurts the economy. 313 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,719 Speaker 3: But when you have conduct that is really harmful for society, 314 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: unleashing the trial lawyers to sue the living hell out 315 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 3: of them, I think is a really, really powerful tool. 316 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 2: It's a New Year twenty twenty six, you've probably heard 317 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: the name bitcoin and cryptocurrency. So the question so many 318 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: people have is it safe and is it something that 319 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 2: I should be invested in. It's a question I want 320 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 2: to get answered for you today in joining me now 321 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 2: to talk about that as a co founder of Bitcoin IRA, 322 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 2: Chris Klin, Chris, I appreciate you being here, and it 323 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: is pretty cool to see what's happening in the crypto space. 324 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: It has become normal. 325 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 2: It now can be a part of your IRA. The 326 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 2: federal government has changed the rules. They're accepting cryptocurrency like 327 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 2: it's a stock. 328 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, and it's it's really driven itself into a 329 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 4: mainstream space. I remember a decade ago when we first 330 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 4: started Bitcoin IRA and everybody was like, are you crazy kid? 331 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 4: You're putting bitcoin in retirement accounts? Is this even possible? 332 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 4: And you fast forward to where we're at today, where 333 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 4: countries are building stockpiles, corporations are building stockpiles. Strategy, for example, 334 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 4: is pretty much its entire business models around this. It's 335 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 4: a piece of diversification that every major player in the 336 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 4: space and economics is looking at, and so should too. 337 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 4: The individual sovereignty of the average American looking to put 338 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 4: it inside of their retirement. 339 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,719 Speaker 2: You guys actually have a really cool stat that you 340 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 2: told me about at dinner, and that is that your 341 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 2: clients seventy five percent were born before nineteen seventy six. 342 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: So the idea that you may be missed out on 343 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 2: this or if you're a little older, it's a young 344 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: man's game and crypto that is also just not true. 345 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 4: That's definitely one of the myths I wanted to come 346 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 4: to bunk with you in your audience. Isn't this isn't 347 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 4: our grandfather's economy and grandfathers are buying bitcoin and putting 348 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 4: it inside of their retirement for long term holdings, especially 349 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 4: now that they're thinking about inheritance and handed some of 350 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 4: these things down. But yeah, that was actually shocking to me. 351 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 4: We've discovered that in twenty eighteen that seventy five percent 352 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 4: of them were older than my parents' generation. And what 353 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 4: we found from surveying all of them was this is 354 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 4: something that they think is new age and that I 355 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: think almost every American, especially older ones, has a genuine 356 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 4: concern of watching what's happened to the US dollar over 357 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 4: the last four or five decades. And there's always been 358 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 4: gold and silver as a potential hedge, land, real estate. 359 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,360 Speaker 4: These scarce assets and bitcoin. While it may seem oh 360 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 4: that's digital and it's different, it's scarce. There's only twenty 361 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 4: one million assets bitcoin that will ever be mined. Nineteen 362 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 4: and a half million have been mined so far, and 363 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 4: you and I actually won't live, our kids will probably 364 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 4: live to see the last one get mined. This is 365 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 4: something you know. We're in a world of abundance since 366 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 4: I was born in nineteen eighty five. It's abundance. We 367 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 4: just printed and printed and printed more. This is a 368 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 4: moment in time where we may be able to revert 369 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 4: back to scarcity, and there'll be a day we're just 370 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 4: saying I have one Bitcoin will be life changing. 371 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: Chris. 372 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 2: I hope a lot of people that are watching this, 373 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 2: you guys, will go and find out more.

I want to move 379 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 2: finally to this other big subject and for people that 380 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 2: are listening right now. Uh, there is a big scandal 381 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 2: that is taking place at the United Nations. But it's 382 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: a type of scandal that you and I should should 383 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: love and celebrate, and that is the UN is angry 384 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 2: right now that there's not enough money for them to 385 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 2: do all their their their woke crap all over the world, 386 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 2: the simplest way I can describe it. And they're really 387 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 2: upset because the number one fund of the UN has 388 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 2: been the United States of America. Donald Trump has said 389 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: no more, We're not gonna just give you this blank 390 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 2: check and be and fund all this stuff. And now 391 00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 2: the UN Segretary General is freaking out, uh and say saying, 392 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 2: we need desperate money. Now our things are going to 393 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: have to be shut down. This on top of the 394 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 2: fact that Trump has also taken the US out of 395 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: sixty six globalist organizations and treaties as well, saving American 396 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: taxpayer dollars are being wasted. 397 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 3: So you talked about cutting off funding for as you said, 398 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 3: quote woke crap all over the world. I think that's 399 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 3: the new motto of the United Nations. The United Nations 400 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 3: work woke crap all over the world. Let me read 401 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 3: from our article in Breitbart, quote the United Nations is 402 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: going broke and needs member nations to stump up cash, 403 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 3: lots of it. That is the plea from Secretary General 404 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 3: Antonio Gutierres, who fears the globalist body is at risk 405 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 3: of quote imminent financial collapse due to their member states 406 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 3: not paying their dues. The former leader of the Portuguese 407 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 3: Socialist Party said Friday, the UN faces a financial crisis 408 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 3: which was quote deepening, threatening program delivery, and money could 409 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 3: run out as soon as July, leaving the unaccountable globalist 410 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 3: cabal destitute. Such as the financial drama unfolding at UN 411 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 3: headquarters in Geneva, Signs of a warning situation have reportedly 412 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 3: been put up everywhere in an almost desperate attempt to 413 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: save cash. The escalators are regularly turned off and the 414 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,479 Speaker 3: heating turned down. The BBC reports, by the way, how 415 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 3: much money do you save turning the escalators off? Like 416 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 3: like that's rightly exactly, that's a little amazing. So Gutiera 417 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 3: sent a missive out to all one hundred ninety three 418 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 3: member states outlining his fears and pleading that they had 419 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 3: to honor to their mandatory payments or overhaul the organization's 420 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 3: financial rules to avoid collapse. It comes after the UN's 421 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 3: largest contributor to the United States refuse to contribute to 422 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 3: its regular and peacekeeping budgets and withdrew from several agencies 423 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 3: it called a quote waste of taxpair dollars. These include 424 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 3: the UN's Population Agency and the UN treaty that establishes 425 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 3: international climate negotiations. And I got to say, reading this, 426 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 3: it reminds me of actually think one of the funniest 427 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 3: movies ever made was Team America World Police. You ever 428 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 3: see Team America? Oh yeah, yeah, Okay, it's absolutely hysterical. 429 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 3: By the way, I'm going to confess a really stupid thing. 430 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: I did so several years ago. I was vacationing with 431 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 3: Heidi and with the girls and with my in laws, 432 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 3: Heidie's parents, and they have a houseboat on Lake Powell. 433 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 3: Lake Powell is an amazing Have you ever been Lake Powell? 434 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: I have not. You've told me about it. It's on 435 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 1: my bucket list. 436 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 3: Now, like Holy Cow. So, Lake Powell is the southern 437 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 3: part of the Grand Canyon, and basically envision the Grand 438 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 3: Canyon dammed up and filled halfway with water. That is 439 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: Lake Powell. And so my in laws for thirty years 440 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 3: have had a houseboat there and you go out on 441 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 3: the houseboat and that they tow, you tow a ski boat. 442 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 3: You tow typically one or two jet skis. You go 443 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: out into the water and it's amazing. So my in 444 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 3: laws are are are not fancy. So their houseboat does 445 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 3: not have a working air conditioner. So you go out 446 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: typically in the middle of the summer, it's one hundred 447 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 3: and ten degrees no ac You sleep on the roof 448 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 3: of the houseboat under the stars. By the way, your 449 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: your cell phone doesn't work at all. You have no internet, 450 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 3: and you know, you get up and jump in the water. 451 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 3: You bathe in the lake, get you go out water skiing. 452 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: You get on a jet ski and you can go 453 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: down these finger canyons. Ben I got to say, you 454 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 3: go down a finger canyon is breathtaking. You can go 455 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 3: down it where on each side you can put your 456 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 3: hand out and touch the side of the cliff. 457 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's on the bucket list. 458 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 3: It goes a couple hundred feet of just red sandstone 459 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: and you're in this sliver. You can in far enough 460 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 3: that you've got to jump off the jet ski, swim 461 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 3: around and turn the jet ski around because you don't 462 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: have room to turn it around. So it's an awesome 463 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 3: thing to do. So one time a decade ago, Heidi 464 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 3: and I going out with their parents and we decided 465 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 3: so they do have a little TV on the houseboat 466 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 3: with the a DVR player, and we decided to bring. 467 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: I know where this is going, all right, I'm with 468 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: you now. 469 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 3: I keep going a DVD of Team America because Heidi 470 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 3: doesn't like movies very much. I love movies, like I 471 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 3: grew up. My parents both love movies, so like I 472 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: would go out with my mom and dad and we'd 473 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 3: go see movies every week, and we'd love movies. Heidi 474 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 3: grew up she never went to the movies, but I 475 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 3: took her to see Team America and she laughed so 476 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: hard she couldn't breathe. So they're like, all right, let's 477 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 3: bring it. And this was I gotta say, an incredibly 478 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 3: stupid thing to do, Ben, because I forgot that Team 479 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 3: America's okay, so it's puppets and it's done by the 480 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 3: South Park guys. But every third or fourth word is 481 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 3: a curse word. I mean it's it is a relentless 482 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: and I'm sitting there playing this. We turned it on 483 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 3: with my in laws and they're just looking in utter 484 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 3: horror as it's just curse, curse, curse, curse, curse. We 485 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 3: didn't watch ten minutes of it before we turned it 486 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 3: off and said, oh, sorry about that. 487 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 4: I really got it. 488 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: Apologize. Now here's my question, though, did your wife do it? 489 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 2: My wife would do that scenario, act like she's shocked 490 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,479 Speaker 2: that you brought this movie and showed it. Or did 491 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 2: she laugh as hard as she laughed when y'all were 492 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 2: at the movie together. That's the real question. 493 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: She sort of laughed. 494 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 3: But we remembered how funny the movie was, but we 495 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 3: hadn't internalized. There's just if you deleted every profanity in 496 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 3: the movie, the movie shorter look like it just And 497 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 3: part of what I like about Team America is it 498 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: mocks both sides. So it's not a conservative movie. It's 499 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 3: not a liberal movie like it. It makes fun of 500 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 3: both sides in a way that is really funny. But 501 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 3: I don't advise, particularly if you know my in laws, 502 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean were they were Christian missionaries.
