But you appear 103 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 10: to have the suspect and custody, and we're grateful that 104 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 10: you have not slept, You did not rest, just like 105 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 10: you promised, and you are men of your word, and 106 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 10: we are grateful too. And so with that, I just 107 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 10: want to again welcome my friends and. 108 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 4: Jack, I'm gonna start with you. We tell us what's 109 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 4: on your heart right now. 110 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 11: Brother, Well, you know, it's like, I know, the seat 111 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 11: looks empty, but it's not. The seat isn't empty at all, 112 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 11: because in a way, Charlie is the only thing we're 113 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 11: all thinking about right now. 114 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 12: We can't think of anything else. Really, we can't think straight. 115 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 11: We can read and we can talk, but at the 116 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 11: end of the day, all we're thinking about is Charlie. 117 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 11: And we know that Charlie is looking down on us, 118 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 11: and I know that when we all gather here, it's 119 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 11: like He's here. And that's why no one wants to 120 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 11: sit there, because he is there. We are saying thank you, 121 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 11: is just there. And the only thing that I guess 122 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 11: I would add is, you know, we're hearing these reports 123 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 11: that family members of the suspect were involved, particularly the father, 124 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 11: in bringing him to the police, bringing him to the authorities, 125 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 11: and if that's true, I'd just like to extend a 126 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 11: sincere thank you and gratitude to something like that. As 127 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 11: a father, I can't even imagine. I just I can't 128 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 11: even imagine what that what that must be like. But 129 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 11: to have done that is is it just shows the 130 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 11: ultimate goodness and the ultimate righteousness that still does exist 131 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 11: in this country and the fact that people are willing 132 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 11: to step up and do the right thing, even in 133 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 11: impossible odds. 134 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 12: And that's the Charlie Kirk spirit. 135 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 11: That's always been the Charlie Kirk spirit, is to stare 136 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 11: down impossible odds and say I'm gonna do it anyway. 137 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 11: When everybody told him me couldn't. And that's that's the 138 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 11: Charlie Kirk. I know that when you told me you 139 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 11: couldn't do it, he'd say, figure it out, Tyler. I'm 140 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 11: sure he told you that more times than you can count. 141 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 8: I I've just it's been really hard. 142 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: I mean, we've we've been able to lean on each other, 143 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 2: I think, talking a lot to one another about the memories. 144 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 8: And that's probably I. 145 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 2: Think the most the most important thing that we can 146 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 2: do today is share those memories. I've been telling everybody 147 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: that's reached out on our staff. I mean, we've hired 148 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: thousands of people in Turning Point and it hasn't been easy. 149 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: That's been part of the battle on Charlie.

And 654 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 10: Rush always had his email dialogue with his listeners, and 655 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 10: Charlie took note of that and that it kept him 656 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,879 Speaker 10: close to the people, because this world can get very 657 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 10: insulating and it's and. 658 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 4: Charlie never let that happen. That's why he went to college. 659 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 10: Campuses, because he learned and he knew and he saw 660 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 10: what kids were really thinking. He always made such a 661 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 10: point to stay so close to the public, even though 662 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,320 Speaker 10: he was so stratospherically like famous. 663 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 4: So we couldn't take him anywhere. 664 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 10: I mean, it was really at that point of stardom 665 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 10: and fame that we couldn't take Charlie anywhere. But it 666 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 10: all started with a love of the spoken word and 667 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 10: what Rush Limbaugh told him, and he would take lunch 668 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 10: breaks from school just to listen to Rush Limbaugh. And 669 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 10: so to have this show and to be behind the 670 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 10: microphone was one of the greatest honors of his life. 671 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 10: And he did not take it for granted. He loved it, 672 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 10: and he saw it as a way to pipe the 673 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,760 Speaker 10: vanguard of the current thinking on the current debates into 674 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 10: the zeitgeist and to keep the base steady and keep 675 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 10: the coalition together.

And the 835 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 10: middle one is I am Charlie Kirk. 836 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 8: I've seen so many people saying that. 837 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, and it's a beautiful testament and I love it 838 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:11,919 Speaker 10: and I want one. 839 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 4: And the other one. 840 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 10: Is I'm just humbled by God's grace. And that, of course, 841 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 10: was from election night November twenty twenty four, when Charlie 842 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 10: got news that Pennsylvania had been called by Fox News 843 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 10: for Donald Trump that he would be the forty seventh 844 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 10: president of the United States. 845 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 4: In this room, that. 846 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 10: Viral video had happened right here, and Charlie put his 847 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 10: hands up to his face and a man who doesn't 848 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 10: cry very often got misty eyed, and. 849 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 4: He gave all the glory to God. And I love 850 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 4: that and I'm so glad that they picked that moment. 851 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 4: And then the other one is. 852 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,760 Speaker 10: The freedom shirt and it has the date that it happened, 853 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 10: and that's the shirt that he was wearing. And we 854 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 10: put the Turning Point hook on that sleeve as well. 855 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,320 Speaker 10: And so if you want to honor Charlie, and obviously 856 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 10: you want to help the show, that would be amazing. 857 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,399 Speaker 8: Can I shout out you guys real quick? 858 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 2: I mean, we have so many good people who work 859 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:21,880 Speaker 2: for Charlie, his show, his personal side. 860 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 8: People don't talk about this. 861 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 2: I was careful not to talk about this because Charlie 862 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 2: again didn't like the spotlight of it all. But part 863 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 2: of the reason why this show exists is because Charlie 864 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 2: didn't want to do things that would cost money from 865 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 2: Turning Point. For years and years and years and years, 866 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 2: Charlie didn't take a salary from Turning Point. He paid himself. 867 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:49,399 Speaker 2: I know this because I was the one that had 868 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 2: to approve payrolls for at Turning Point for seven years, 869 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 2: he paid himself like thirty thousand dollars a year, then 870 00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:57,879 Speaker 2: a little bit. 871 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, he didn't take a wage for the first five years, 872 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 10: and then his first wage. 873 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 8: I think it was like tiny. 874 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 4: It was tineteen thousand the first year. 875 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 2: And I know that because mine was tiny too, but 876 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,279 Speaker 2: I gave it was like insane, and and then he 877 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 2: the part of the show was that he was able 878 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 2: to give back. So it costs Turning Point nothing for 879 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 2: Charlie to run Turning Point. 880 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:19,879 Speaker 10: Yeah, people don't know this. Charlie gave. There was this 881 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,800 Speaker 10: stupid ap article I'll never forget where they tried to 882 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 10: don't want to give it, I know, but they tried 883 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 10: to make it sound like Charlie was was somehow taking 884 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 10: money from donors or something, or fleecing the donors. 885 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:31,240 Speaker 4: But here's the truth. 886 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 10: Charlie paid back his salary and then some back to 887 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,919 Speaker 10: Turning Point. Every year he donated back all that. Here's 888 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 10: one second, guys going to welcome back radio. Go ahead, Tyler. 889 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 8: I was just gonn. I was just going to say. 890 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 2: This is that that he was able to do something 891 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 2: beyond anyone else. So there's I mean, there's great people 892 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 2: that people admire a lot. Rush is one of those people. 893 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 2: But Rush didn't build in his spare time a turning Point, USA, 894 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 2: a Turning Point action and all that right like Charlie 895 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 2: did all that gave it all back. 896 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:21,360 Speaker 8: Essentially for that. 897 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 2: And then we have the whole point of why I'm 898 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 2: saying this is we have so many good people here 899 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 2: at the show that that have that work here, that 900 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 2: that produces to get truth out.

The pressure he had it 1450 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:02,840 Speaker 11: all like, and there's a choice, no decision made. 1451 01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 14: A week ago I was getting when I was actually 1452 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:10,679 Speaker 14: flying out to Korea for a thing, I was like, okay, 1453 01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 14: I've got to see if there's something to this. And 1454 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 14: I just put on socks and I pulled them all 1455 01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 14: the way up more than that for about half the day, 1456 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:18,720 Speaker 14: and then I thought this is way too annoying and 1457 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:19,840 Speaker 14: I slid them back down. 1458 01:21:19,880 --> 01:21:21,960 Speaker 8: Well, he would take so you're not tall enough, Yeah. 1459 01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:26,360 Speaker 4: But you probably did have really good circulation.

Charlie loved Danny so much, and Danny's 1474 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 10: quiet doesn't always say a whole lot, but when he speaks, 1475 01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:52,320 Speaker 10: you better listen because he's been thinking about it for 1476 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 10: a long time, and Danny wanted to just he's shared 1477 01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 10: this with me. I hope it's okay. I think it is, 1478 01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:01,679 Speaker 10: he says, Charlie's story. Last year, when I was living 1479 01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:05,800 Speaker 10: out here interning, I was living in the hood off 1480 01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 10: of GCU campus, Charlie found out and goes, Okay, you're 1481 01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 10: gonna either live at my apartment or at my in laws, 1482 01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,080 Speaker 10: And he's like, I convinced him I would be fine, 1483 01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:19,840 Speaker 10: and I stayed where I was for a few months. 1484 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:22,639 Speaker 10: He was one of the kindest people I've ever met. 1485 01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 10: And I love that story because somehow this was true 1486 01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 10: about Charlie, that he was balancing huge organizations, a thousand relationships, donors, friends, 1487 01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 10: the show, politicians, other organizations. He had all these plates 1488 01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:44,760 Speaker 10: spinning in his head all the time, and he would 1489 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 10: somehow find time to worry about my wellbeing, or is your. 1490 01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:50,880 Speaker 4: Wife and kids? Are they gonna come? Do you need 1491 01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 4: me to set them up with something? Do you want me? 1492 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:55,280 Speaker 4: Can I get them here? Are you okay? Do you 1493 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 4: want me to put you at this hotel? 1494 01:23:56,600 --> 01:24:01,160 Speaker 10: Like he would His brain was just always moving and spinning, 1495 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,160 Speaker 10: and he was always thinking about other people and their 1496 01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:06,719 Speaker 10: well being. And how many stories I heard of that, Tyler, 1497 01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:08,640 Speaker 10: I mean right, it's like you saw it in the 1498 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 10: organizational feats of Turning Point. How he would think about 1499 01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:13,519 Speaker 10: the speaker coming in to make sure they were all 1500 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:15,600 Speaker 10: taken care of, and he had it built into the 1501 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 10: schedule that he had to go backstage to meet so 1502 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:19,200 Speaker 10: and so at such a time because he wanted to 1503 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:22,480 Speaker 10: just say thanks for coming. And it was the intricacy 1504 01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 10: of his mind and the details he was able to 1505 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:27,080 Speaker 10: hold all at one time, truly amazing. 1506 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:29,519 Speaker 8: One of the things that. 1507 01:24:31,439 --> 01:24:34,040 Speaker 2: I just keep seeing over and over is everyone telling 1508 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:36,840 Speaker 2: the stories of how they got introduced to Charlie. And 1509 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:40,360 Speaker 2: I've received again, thousands of messages. I can't even respond back. 1510 01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 2: I know Andrew feels the same. All of us probably 1511 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 2: feel the same. Jack is a savant I keeping up 1512 01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:46,560 Speaker 2: with people. I don't know how he does it, but 1513 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:49,080 Speaker 2: I just can't even keep up. So I'm not even 1514 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:51,680 Speaker 2: going to try. So I apologize. But everything I keep 1515 01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 2: seeing over and over is Tyler. I know you were 1516 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:54,920 Speaker 2: close to Charlie. 1517 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:57,479 Speaker 8: I didn't know him personally, but I want you to 1518 01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 8: know how I was introduced to Charlie. 1519 01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 2: Nine times out of ten. You know what the answer is. 1520 01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:06,840 Speaker 2: One of my kids turned me on to Charlie. They 1521 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:10,040 Speaker 2: showed me Charlie. And this is like, and this kind 1522 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 2: of goes hand in hand a little bit with what 1523 01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:16,160 Speaker 2: you're talking about. It's just it's always shocking to me. 1524 01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:22,040 Speaker 2: How again the Charlie Kirk phenomenon, how he led his life, 1525 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 2: how everything just ultimately ended up in front of people, 1526 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:28,639 Speaker 2: and for so many young people. 1527 01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 8: Again, and that's the mission of Turning Point. Turning Point. 1528 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:33,400 Speaker 2: We always were were trying to get young people involved 1529 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:36,559 Speaker 2: and engaged, but to not only see young people getting 1530 01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 2: involved and engaged in loving Charlie and being interested in 1531 01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:42,040 Speaker 2: his content, whether it's tiktoks to all the way through 1532 01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 2: long form podcast, is that they were taking their parents 1533 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:50,560 Speaker 2: in most cases old gen xers or baby boomers and 1534 01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:53,640 Speaker 2: saying you need to listen to this, or grandparents and 1535 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,479 Speaker 2: it's so interesting to me. And this is the legacy 1536 01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:59,240 Speaker 2: that has to carry on in such a profound way, 1537 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:03,519 Speaker 2: is that young people can be the spur, they can 1538 01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:07,759 Speaker 2: be the dynamics, they can be the activating element. 1539 01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:08,559 Speaker 12: And Charlie was right. 1540 01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:10,439 Speaker 8: No one believed this, by the way, when we started, 1541 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:12,880 Speaker 8: there was no one. And Charlie would get that. 1542 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:14,800 Speaker 2: Face you know when he would tell you you get excited, 1543 01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:16,360 Speaker 2: cause he'd be like, I'm gonna prove you wrong, and 1544 01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 2: he'd get that voice that is. 1545 01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 10: He literally took on the hardest I can't the hardest job. 1546 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:26,120 Speaker 10: Literally the time it was unfathomable, and it was like, 1547 01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:31,040 Speaker 10: you have chosen potentially the dumbest career mission imaginable. 1548 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:34,640 Speaker 2: Obama era college campuses. Guys, you don't understand. That is 1549 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:37,200 Speaker 2: the definition of the belly of the beast. And where 1550 01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:40,800 Speaker 2: we are today is where young people are carrying on 1551 01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 2: their shoulders the Charlie Kirk voice to the older generation 1552 01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 2: in a lot of cases. And I'm so that I 1553 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:50,800 Speaker 2: never have really spent time thinking about that. I mean, 1554 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:52,640 Speaker 2: I know it, and we're really excited because I do 1555 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:55,720 Speaker 2: that with my parents and grandparents. But it's it's been 1556 01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:59,240 Speaker 2: so rewarding to see. And if Charlie could sit here 1557 01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:01,720 Speaker 2: and read all these mess that I'm receiving that are 1558 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,120 Speaker 2: saying that exact thing, he would be ecstatic. And we 1559 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:06,519 Speaker 2: used to send those in the chat all the time. 1560 01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:09,439 Speaker 2: But I actually have some breaking news. I don't know 1561 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,000 Speaker 2: if I should share it or not, but I'm going to. 1562 01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:13,440 Speaker 2: It looks like the Cubs are going to be recognizing 1563 01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 2: Charlie today. 1564 01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 4: That's a great listen. So I don't even want to 1565 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:22,040 Speaker 4: tell that story. I can't tell that story, but. 1566 01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 17: They should have a they should have a very important 1567 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 17: running and he loved the Cubs His grandma was a 1568 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:32,920 Speaker 17: lifelong Cubs fan, and she got to see the Cubs 1569 01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:35,479 Speaker 17: win the World Series and then passed away. 1570 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 4: And Charlie was like that was she lived and she 1571 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:41,920 Speaker 4: lived to see like that.

He was 1994 01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 10: exactly who he said he was, except better. There wasn't 1995 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:12,680 Speaker 10: one thing that was fake or fabricated. He believed in 1996 01:49:12,760 --> 01:49:14,879 Speaker 10: what he said, and he lived out what he believed. 1997 01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:19,000 Speaker 10: He loved Jesus more than anyone. The truest thing about 1998 01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:22,839 Speaker 10: him was his belief in God. He was constantly researching 1999 01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:25,080 Speaker 10: new ways to defend the Gospel and making sure we 2000 01:49:25,160 --> 01:49:27,760 Speaker 10: all knew them. It was that important to him. I 2001 01:49:27,840 --> 01:49:30,800 Speaker 10: can still hear him say good morning sports fans coming 2002 01:49:30,880 --> 01:49:33,760 Speaker 10: into our studio every morning. I could still hear the 2003 01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:36,719 Speaker 10: worship music coming out of his office. I and everyone 2004 01:49:36,760 --> 01:49:39,519 Speaker 10: in the building was watching. I can still hear oh, 2005 01:49:39,840 --> 01:49:41,840 Speaker 10: I can still hear the Cubs games. He'd turn on 2006 01:49:42,400 --> 01:49:44,439 Speaker 10: all the TVs to make sure everyone in the building 2007 01:49:44,520 --> 01:49:46,680 Speaker 10: was watching. I can still hear his kids running to 2008 01:49:46,760 --> 01:49:50,320 Speaker 10: hug him during breaks. He's not only he not only 2009 01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:52,360 Speaker 10: took a chance on me at twenty one years old, 2010 01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:55,880 Speaker 10: but he pushed me, trusted me, and listened to me. 2011 01:49:56,120 --> 01:49:58,880 Speaker 10: Our show was everything to us. We lived and breathed 2012 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 10: the Charlie Kirk Show because because we believed in it, 2013 01:50:01,240 --> 01:50:04,759 Speaker 10: we still do. He consistently raised the bar for everyone 2014 01:50:04,920 --> 01:50:07,760 Speaker 10: on our team by first raising it for himself. Every day, 2015 01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 10: he saw greatness in you, and he brought it out 2016 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:14,120 Speaker 10: by first being great himself. Just being around him, being 2017 01:50:14,200 --> 01:50:17,200 Speaker 10: in the background, made you want to fight harder. He 2018 01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:20,280 Speaker 10: was ecstatic when I told him I was pregnant. He 2019 01:50:20,439 --> 01:50:22,760 Speaker 10: made sure to ask about the baby every day. He 2020 01:50:22,880 --> 01:50:25,439 Speaker 10: wanted to see every ultrasound, and when we found out 2021 01:50:25,479 --> 01:50:26,479 Speaker 10: it was a girl, he yelled. 2022 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:30,760 Speaker 4: I told you, my faith is completely different. Had I 2023 01:50:30,880 --> 01:50:34,160 Speaker 4: never met Charlie, my career, my adult life, my marriage, 2024 01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:36,719 Speaker 4: from watching the way he loved Erica, everything is different. 2025 01:50:36,760 --> 01:50:38,920 Speaker 4: Had I never met him, I'll never be the same, 2026 01:50:39,040 --> 01:50:41,640 Speaker 4: and I wouldn't want to be. If there was one 2027 01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:44,439 Speaker 4: thing to know about Charlie, it's that he loved Jesus. 2028 01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:47,040 Speaker 4: He is with God. He spent so much time learning 2029 01:50:47,080 --> 01:50:51,519 Speaker 4: about and teaching others about.
