I know 26 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: that sounds nuts, but I grew up in the steel 27 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: foundry with my dad. Worked in the foundry for many years, 28 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 2: and then a few years back I turned to politics. 29 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: And sometimes when you get into politics, you just never 30 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,279 Speaker 2: get out. It's sort of this like vortex that sucks 31 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: you in. And I decided, Wow, hard can it be 32 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 2: to run for governor? So I decided to do that 33 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: in the state of Michigan against Gretchen Whitmer, and I 34 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: learned a lot about politics at that time. I learned 35 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: a lot about what Republicans are doing wrong. I learned 36 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: a lot about what we're not doing at all that's 37 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 2: actually costing us elections. And I've been sharing that with 38 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: all of you on the podcast. I'm so thankful for 39 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 2: all of you that are listening. But I think Conservatives 40 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 2: have a huge chance to win in twenty twenty four 41 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: because Democrats are falling apart right now. We're going to 42 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 2: get to that, but first I want to talk about 43 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: some of the breaking news that we have, and that 44 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: is what's going on in Israel right now, we. 45 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 3: Know that there is a ceasefire. 46 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: If you don't know, there's a four day ceasefire going 47 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: on so that they can get some of those hostages 48 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: out of Hamas, out of Gaza. 49 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: Hamas is supposed to be releasing about. 50 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 2: Fifty hostages as if today, there are twenty four that 51 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 2: have been released on My understanding is they're now in Egypt. 52 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: They were in the custody of the Red Cross. They've 53 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: now gone into Egypt. They should be coming back to Israel. 54 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: They're going to have a medical check beforehand. These are 55 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: women and children. From what we understand the hostages, there 56 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: were ten hostages that were Thai countrymen, so Thailand, their 57 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: prime minister has announced that ten of his countrymen have 58 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 2: been released. 59 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 3: There was one Filipino and thirteen. 60 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 2: Hostages that are said to be from the same community 61 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 2: in Israel, so thirteen Israelis that do have dual citizenship. 62 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: We haven't gotten the information of exactly where, but we 63 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 2: do know one thing. There were no Americans released, So 64 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: of these hostage there were not no Americans. Not one 65 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: of these hostages that were released today were American. And 66 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 2: I say that because I think it's pretty significant America. 67 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: The United States has been incredibly engaged in these hostage 68 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: negotiations and engaged in the discussions with Qatar, engaged in 69 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: the discussions with the Israelis about the ceasefire. You know, 70 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: obviously you've seen all the people calling for a ceasefire, 71 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: and yet none of these negotiations came out with a 72 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: single American. And let me remind you that there are 73 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty we believe two hundred and forty 74 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 2: hostages that Hamas has taken, that they took on ten seven, 75 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: October seventh, that day, and these are twenty four that 76 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: have been released, and we're saying over these next four 77 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: days that there should be fifty, not the two hundred 78 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: and forty. But the deal is that the Israelis are 79 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: also going to release prisoners. So they are freeing thirty 80 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 2: nine Palestinian prison prisoners that they have prisoners, not hostages, 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: let me be clear. So the Israelis are getting back hostages. 82 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: These are women and children who were taken from their homes. 83 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 2: They were taken at gunpoint. We don't know what condition 84 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: they're in, but we know the conditions of what happened 85 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: on October seventh when they went into Israel. 86 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 3: They were paratroopers. 87 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: They came on the ground and they it was taken 88 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: by brutal force. Women and children raped, a horrific situation. 89 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: Israel is getting those people back in exchange for releasing 90 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: Palestinian prisoners. Again, twenty four hostages came back, freeing thirty 91 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: nine Palestinian prisoners. You will hear reports today. These are 92 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 2: women and children that are being released from Israel. We're 93 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 2: going to have an in a little bit later in 94 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: this hour, we're going to have somebody on the ground 95 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: in Israel who's going to talk to us. I want 96 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 2: to kind of dig deep at that time into these 97 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 2: prisoners because twenty four of these Palestinian prisoners that the 98 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 2: Israelis are releasing are women. But let me tell you 99 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 2: these some of these women are convicted of attempted murder. 100 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: So you just have to understand that when we talk 101 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: about women and children, it's women who are convicted of 102 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 2: attempted murder, children who are teenagers that have been throwing 103 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 2: stones at Israeli forces. But you know, maybe deeper than that, 104 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: So we want to get into that a little bit later. Again, 105 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: this is a four day truce. We are expecting fifty 106 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 2: hostages total to be freed from Gaza. I know these 107 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: families are all wondering if it's their children, if they're 108 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: going to see their family members again. Our hearts are 109 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: with them. We've seen people on the news talking about this. 110 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: But in America, in the United States, we have a 111 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: serious problem with people not believing that this is happening. 112 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: And I think that this is criminal. If you just 113 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: look at yesterday, Just look at yesterday, and I say 114 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 2: the Democrats have a problem because of this. Look at 115 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. You've got these protesters that 116 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 2: come out. They're protesting. In the name of their jumpsuits 117 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 2: said colonialism, capitalism, and racism. And they say they want people, 118 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: they want the ceasefire. They want these people to stop 119 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 2: having this attack against Gaza, despite the fact that they 120 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: had never even these people had never even heard of Gaza. 121 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 2: They knew nothing about this until Hamas went in and 122 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: launched the worst terror attack Israel has ever seen on 123 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: October seventh. We call it Israel's nine to eleven, but 124 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: where it is not even close. The number of people 125 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 2: who died. Over twelve hundred people were murdered, people were raped, 126 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: they were killed in front of their family members. It 127 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 2: was a horrific attack. And these little yahoo's in their 128 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: jumps suits, jumpsuits that they went out in the middle 129 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. 130 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 3: They jumped the barriers. 131 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: They had these jumpsuits covered in blood, and they have 132 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: the words like colonialism, capitalism, and racism written on them, 133 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 2: and they glued themselves to the street in front of 134 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: the parade. I mean, like, if you are watching the parade, 135 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: how mad are you? You've been out there all night, 136 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: you have your spot and this person is like, you know, 137 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 2: free the Palestinians. We've got to make sure that we 138 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 2: stop the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. 139 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 3: And who decided that this was a good idea? 140 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: I mean all of these so just so you know, 141 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: the climate people claimed responsibility for this, because of course, 142 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: why would it not be the climate people. 143 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 3: They're gluing themselves to things all the time. 144 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 2: They're either gluing themselves to something or they're throwing paint 145 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 2: all over everything. And I think that I see this, 146 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: and I always sit back and I think, what are 147 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: you achieving here? I mean, really, you're just hurting yourself. 148 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 2: Why is there not like the first climate person that 149 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 2: glued themselves to something and now has no skin on 150 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 2: their hands or had to have their hands imputated. Talking 151 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: to the other climate people and saying there's actually a 152 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 2: better way to do this, but clearly that hasn't happened. 153 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 2: So yesterday they glued themselves to the street in front 154 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 2: of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. This is the Climate Coalition, 155 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 2: Seven Circles Alliance. They came out and they said, we 156 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: need to bring attention to the ongoing ethnic cleansing and 157 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: genocide of Palestinians. Confronting issues of capitalism along with colonialism 158 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: and imperialism head on is urgently required by the environmental 159 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 2: and social justice groups. What I mean, what does that 160 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: even mean? But who's going to take care of this? 161 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 2: Because now you have these people that are against Eric Adams. 162 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: The FBI has raided Eric Adams. He's the mayor of 163 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 2: New York. This just happens to have happened after he 164 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: came out strongly in support of the Jewish community. He 165 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: talked about how big the Jewish community is in the 166 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 2: city of New York and he's come out in defense 167 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: of them, and now he's under a somewhat brutal attack, 168 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 2: it seems from this mysterious FBI. Now there's sexual assault 169 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: allegations against him as well, So it just all seems 170 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: like it's coming to a head in a very strange way. 171 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 2: And like I said, how is this helping the Democrats? 172 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: It's not because I think people are really sick and 173 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 2: tired of what they have seen with these protests. We 174 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: went through the George Floyd protests and I think everybody 175 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: was like, Okay, we're going to make an excuse for 176 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 2: all of the broken businesses, all the all of the graffiti, 177 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: all of the destruction because of the message here was, 178 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: you know, we want to come around communities. That was 179 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: the message they were trying to get out, and they 180 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: were selling it in a bizarre way, but for some reason, 181 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: the American people were eating it up. I think we're 182 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 2: done being okay with these protests and the Democrats don't 183 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: understand time is up, Time is up on your weird protests. 184 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: We are We're going to hold these people accountable, and 185 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 2: we're going to hold these Democrat leaders accountable. Whitmer's one 186 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: of them. I want to talk about her next. We're 187 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 2: going to have Aria lighthouse with us. He is the 188 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: former senior advisor to the former US Ambassador to Israel. 189 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: We have a lot to cover with him about these hostages. 190 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: But the reason I met him is because of Governor 191 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: Whitmere in Michigan. She came out after the October seventh 192 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: attack and she said, I've been in touch with communities 193 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 2: impacted by what's happening in the region. It's abhorrent. My 194 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: heart is with those all those impacted. We need peace 195 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: in this region. This was awful because what does that 196 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,359 Speaker 2: even mean. I've been in touch with the communities impacted. 197 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 2: Are you saying you've been in touch with the Israelis? 198 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 2: Are you saying that you been in touch with people 199 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: who have lost someone? We need peace in this region. 200 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,199 Speaker 2: She's trying to thread the needle between the pro Palestinian 201 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 2: community and the pro Israel community because Michigan has both 202 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 2: people on both sides. This was a political decision. It 203 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 2: was not a leadership position because she has no leadership qualities. 204 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: This is a problem in the Democrat Party. They're finding 205 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 2: this out as they have a cake going up in 206 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: flames with eighty one candles for a president who is 207 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: too old to be. 208 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 3: Taking care of this country. 209 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: They don't have anyone to fall back on at this time, 210 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 2: and we are going to talk to Aria next about 211 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: that and a heck of a lot more. 212 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 3: Stay here. 213 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: We'll be right back with an update on the war 214 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 2: in Israel when we return. 215 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Clay and Buck Show. 216 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 4: Kick. 217 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: Clay and Buck don't get paid much here, so they're 218 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 2: taking advantage of the Black Friday deals. I'm assuming that's 219 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: why they have to be off on this day so 220 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: they can go get all of their Christmas shopping.

Aria is the former 230 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: senior advisor to the former US Ambassador to Israel. I 231 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: met him because I was doing a podcast. I met 232 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 2: him because he was angry with Michigan's governor. Michigan's Governor's 233 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: Gretchen Whitmer, I told you about the tweet before we 234 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 2: went to break on October seventh, when she talked about 235 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 2: people in the region. She couldn't even call it hamas. 236 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: She actually had a second tweet. She couldn't even call 237 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 2: it a Hamas. And I was reading Aria's tweets, he said, 238 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: this really caught my eye because I thought, man, this 239 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 2: is super personal. When you hear this, when you read 240 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: this tweet, you can tell this cut deep. He says, 241 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: Dear Governor Whitmer, I hosted you for Thanksgiving in Israel 242 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 2: just a few years ago. I'm embarrassed for you and 243 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: by you, and disappointed that I opened my home and 244 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: my family to you. He came out with a second 245 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 2: tweet that said Governor Whitmer made a second statement, but 246 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: it didn't call out Hamas terrorists. If you can't identify 247 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 2: the enemy, now how do you defeat it. If you 248 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: can't call out evil that murders babies, then what can 249 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 2: you call out? 250 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 3: I mean, seriously, this is true. 251 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: So let me welcome Aria in Aria, thank you so 252 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 2: much for being on the show today. 253 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: It's really nice to speak to you again, and I 254 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. 255 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 3: We did, I hope you did as well. 256 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 2: And I know you're on the ground there in Israel 257 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 2: and you're dealing with all of this. 258 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 3: Still. 259 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: I think people should know that the last time I 260 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 2: talked to you on the podcast, you were running from 261 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 2: safe house to safe house delivering supplies. So you really 262 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: are in the thick of things. You are an American 263 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 2: citizen who is living in Israel making sure that you're 264 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: taking care of people on the ground there. 265 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: Today is a big day. 266 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: Can you fill us in on what you know about 267 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 2: these hostages that are being released. 268 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: Well, thirteen hostages within the last hour have just crossed 269 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: into Israeli territory. And let me just give you a 270 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: sense of who they are. It's a seventy seven year old, 271 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: it's an eighty five year old, it's a seventy nine 272 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: year old. And then it's a two year old and 273 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: a five year old and a nine year old and 274 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: their mother. And these are these are not soldiers, these 275 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: are not men. It's an eighty five year old and 276 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: it's a two year old. I mean that they were 277 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: gone from their homes for forty nine days, and Israel 278 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: today is celebrating their return, but incredibly upset that they've 279 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: been gone from their families for forty nine days, and 280 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: even more upset that it's only thirteen that have been 281 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: returned and not the other two hundred and seventeen that 282 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: are still held in captivity. 283 00:14:58,280 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. 284 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 2: You give me chills when you about this. I mean, 285 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: I think about grandparents and babies. It seems unthinkable. What 286 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: do you say when you hear people say, well, what 287 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: about the Palestinians that have been held in prison and 288 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: we and children that are being released. These are women 289 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: who have been accused of attempted murderers. So can you 290 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: give us a little bit of a comparison of these prisoners. Yeah, 291 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: in comparison to. 292 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: The hostage, we use the word accuse. They were convicted. 293 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: I am friendly with somebody. She's a seventy four year 294 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: old woman who she was attacked and attempted to be 295 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: murdered by one of the people who is being released. Now, 296 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: let's just understand why they're being released today. Where are 297 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: they going back to. They're going back to their homes. 298 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: This lady is going back to live one block away 299 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: from the woman that she tried to murder because she 300 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: was Jewish. When you're talking about quote trading here, these 301 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: are the worst of society. The only thing that they 302 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: didn't do was succeed in their mission to kill innocent people. 303 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: And Israel is getting back grand others and little babies, 304 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: and we want to equate the two. It's moral perversions 305 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: of what it did. 306 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: Ali, thank you so much. Thank you for coming on 307 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 2: today and telling us what's going on in Israel. 308 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 3: We appreciate your time.

I'm 323 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: blessed to be a part of their network and I'm 324 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: excited about our guest. I'm going to confess ahead of time. 325 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 2: I feel like I need to let people know this. 326 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 2: I'm not a huge football person, and I know that's 327 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 2: going to make people incredibly crazy. I grew up with 328 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: parents who were really into football, and so you probably 329 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: don't remember this, but there was a time when the 330 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: Bears were winning and I am from the suburbs of Chicago, 331 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 2: so I spent plenty of time in my Jim mcmahonhead 332 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: band as a kid. And I knew the Super Bowl Shuffle, 333 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 2: which probably none of you know what the Super Bowl 334 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 2: Shuffle is, so you should google that because it was adorable. 335 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 3: I don't know that. 336 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 2: I don't know that's what you say about football, actually, 337 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: But anyway, a few other things that I do know 338 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: about football right now. Travis Kelcey and his brother have 339 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 2: a number one song on iTunes called Fairytale of Philadelphia, 340 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: and I've heard he's dating some other pop star who 341 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,719 Speaker 2: also has songs, but they're like lower on the charts, 342 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 2: so that's interesting. I hear she's in Brazil, so Travis 343 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: had a little extra time to record. 344 00:17:58,680 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 3: I do have a. 345 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 2: Favorite football player, though, who has gone on to do 346 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 2: some incredibly amazing things in his life. Tim Tebow follows 347 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 2: God's leading all of the things that he does, and 348 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 2: that means that he does some pretty amazing things. I'm 349 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 2: happy he's here with us now. Tim, Welcome to the show. 350 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 4: Oh, thank you so much, Tudor. I really appreciate it. 351 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 4: Hopefully you had an amazing Thanksgiving. 352 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 3: I did. I did. I hope you did too. 353 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: I saw that you were out in New York talking 354 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 2: about something pretty exciting because you're out there, Like I said, 355 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 2: you're always doing amazing things. You were talking about Price 356 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: dot Com, and I want to hear more about it 357 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 2: because I don't fully understand. You save people money, but 358 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 2: they can use that money to do great things with it. 359 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 3: So help me to understand what price is. 360 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,199 Speaker 4: Sure. Well, actually, how I got introduced to it as 361 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 4: well was from good our mutual good friend, Ricky Kaplan, 362 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: who introduced me to a young man named Rja a 363 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 4: couple of years ago at a conference and he was 364 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 4: building this really cool thing called price dot Com and 365 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 4: I found out more of it about it and I 366 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 4: was like, what is it? And you explained it to me, 367 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 4: And it's really this all in one savings platform that 368 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 4: helps you save money, make money, or make money matter. 369 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 4: And what I mean by that helps you save money 370 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 4: because it does all the advanced comparison shopping for you, 371 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 4: and so it saves you time, it gives you cupons, 372 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 4: it helps you in so many different ways. But then 373 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 4: it also saves money because there's so many different options 374 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 4: that give cash back. But then one of the coolest 375 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 4: things to me at least, is that it helps you 376 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 4: make money matter. All the money that it helps you save, 377 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 4: you have the option of on their site going to 378 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 4: over two hundred thousand charities and finding the one that 379 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 4: really appeals to you and donating to that. So that's 380 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 4: why we say that it helps you save money, make money, 381 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 4: and it gives you the chance to really make your 382 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 4: money matter if with all the money it saves you, 383 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 4: if you want to help these amazing nonprofits in the 384 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 4: support of their mission. So it is something that's really 385 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 4: really cool, just grateful I get to be a part 386 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 4: of it. 387 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: I think that's that says so much about who you are. 388 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: The way that you are talking about this and the 389 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 2: way that you talk about giving back. It really for 390 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 2: people who have not met you in person. You know, 391 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 2: there's those people that you meet and you go, man, 392 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: there's this energy about this person, and it is really 393 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 2: good energy. And I think with you, it's really God 394 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 2: shining through and that glory shining through. Because when I 395 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: met you the first time, you were just so excited 396 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 2: to help people, help the less fortunate, help the vulnerable 397 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 2: people out there. And we're going to get into that too. 398 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 2: But I also think that when you do things like that, 399 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 2: you are you have a journey in life that God 400 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: put you on to give you the ability to do 401 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 2: good things. And he put you on this journey a 402 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 2: long time ago. You've got a big event tomorrow at 403 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: the Florida Florida State Game. After being the first three 404 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: time Heisman finalist, You're being inducted into the College Football 405 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame. I know our audience is super excited 406 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 2: about that, and you've you've used that said God had 407 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 2: you on this path and use that to do really 408 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: great things. So tell us what is that like to 409 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 2: be going and being inducted into the College Football Hall 410 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 2: of Fame tomorrow. 411 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 4: Well, you know, thank you. It's very humbling and it's 412 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: an amazing award, But honestly, that is just not about me. 413 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 4: I know people say that that all the time, but 414 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 4: I really mean it when, especially in the sport like football, 415 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 4: nothing is done by yourself. It is always a group 416 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 4: of individuals that come together for a common goal. Coaches, teammates, brothers, 417 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 4: you know, it's a family, and no chance this would 418 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 4: be possible without amazing coaches that were mentors, amazing teammates, 419 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 4: amazing players, amazing defense and you know, so many players 420 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 4: at times that made me look a lot better than 421 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 4: I really was. And so it's humbling, but really I just, 422 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 4: you know, am so grateful for the honor, but also 423 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 4: really want to share that with all my teammates and 424 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: which is that made such a big difference. But like 425 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: you said, you know, it's just so grateful to have 426 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 4: that chance to have a platform to use for something 427 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 4: bigger than a game. Because at the end of the day, 428 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 4: as much as so many of us like football and 429 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 4: they're passionate about it and love it, one of the 430 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 4: things that we always have to remember is that there 431 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 4: are things that are more important than a game. I know, 432 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: that's crazy when Rivalry Weeks coming up in Michigan, Ohto 433 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 4: State in Florida, Florida State and all these games, you know, 434 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 4: but it is so important to remember, and I'm so 435 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 4: grateful and I've had to be reminded many times by family, friends, mentors, 436 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 4: parents and pastors and then most importantly God that there 437 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 4: is more important things. And you know, so easy to 438 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 4: lose perspective. But you know, one of the things that 439 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 4: we like to say at the Foundation is we get 440 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 4: to serve the real MVPs, the most vulnerable people, because 441 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 4: so much of my life I was chasing MVPs as 442 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 4: the most valuable player, but I knew that God really 443 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 4: broke my heart for a more important MVP, and that's 444 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 4: the most vulnerable people. And so that's our greatest motivation 445 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 4: now is to serve as many of the most vulnerable 446 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 4: people around the world. 447 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 2: It was the first thing you said to me when 448 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 2: I met you a few years ago. You immediately started 449 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 2: talking about the problem that we have in the United 450 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 2: States with sex trafficking, and I think that it's an 451 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 2: interesting path that you've been on because one of the 452 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: places where we see a significant issue with sex trafficking 453 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 2: is at the Super Bowl. So there is a connection 454 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 2: there between the football world and you fighting against this 455 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: horrific crime and this horrific experience that women and children 456 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 2: are drawn into. So tell us a little bit about 457 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: how you do that, what kind of work you do, 458 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 2: and how significant the problem is here in the United States. 459 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 4: Well, when we're specifically talking about trafficking and the exploitation 460 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 4: of children, we try to fight that in as many 461 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 4: ways as possible, whether that is in the in prevention, 462 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 4: which is a lot of different areas, whether that is 463 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 4: rescue with task forces domestically and international, or that is 464 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 4: with long term restoration with safe homes. 465 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: We have. 466 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 4: Uh forty safe homes that are either fully up and 467 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 4: running or in process of being built right now and 468 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 4: carrying long term restoration for for women and for children 469 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 4: that have come out of this what I would say 470 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 4: is one of the worst evils in the world. But 471 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 4: every day we're working as hard and as fast as 472 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 4: we can to either prevent it, to rescue, or to 473 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 4: bring that long term restoration of faith, hope, and loved 474 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 4: as many people in their darkest hour of need, and 475 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 4: so it is definitely not just an occupation. It is 476 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 4: a calling for our team because it is one of 477 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 4: the biggest evils in the world, and it's also growing 478 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 4: at a rapid rate, and so we just really believe 479 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 4: that we need more people in this fight, on this team, 480 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 4: in this army that would stand against it, because we 481 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 4: know that every single person and is an image bearer 482 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 4: of God, and we have to treat them that way, 483 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 4: not as an object to be used, but as an 484 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 4: individual that has created an image of God to be 485 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 4: loved in the proper way, and to be cared for 486 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 4: and to be protected and to be secured, and to 487 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 4: be given opportunities to dream, to flourish, and to be 488 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 4: and to understand their worth and value from their creator. 489 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 2: One other thing I want to cover with you is 490 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 2: another group of people.

And so Night to 522 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 4: Shine for us is it's more than just a prom 523 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 4: night experience. It's a celebration of worth and value where 524 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 4: every single person gets to know their real worth and 525 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 4: value from their creator. And at the end of it, 526 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 4: every single king or queen is individual as crowned as 527 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 4: a king or queen because we believe that's how the 528 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 4: god at this universe sees them every day of their life. 529 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 4: And it is something that has just really become our 530 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 4: favorite night of the year, and it is It is 531 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 4: also the way that I got introduced to my wife 532 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 4: and she had a sister with special needs and I 533 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 4: say Night to Shine and she says her sister. But 534 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 4: that was our matchmaker. And it's just such a special night. 535 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 4: But you know what when when you show up as 536 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: a volunteer, as a buddy and you're there, yes, you're 537 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 4: there to serve, but I'll tell you it is you 538 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 4: get more impacted than any of the ways that you 539 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 4: think possible. It is something that has made such an 540 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 4: impact and the ripple effects in so many places around 541 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 4: the world because of the unconditional love that is there 542 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 4: and I'm just so grateful for all the host churches, 543 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 4: for all the buddies, for all the volunteers, which we've 544 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 4: had hundreds of thousands of them of volunteers in it, 545 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 4: and it is just making such a big impact. But 546 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 4: that's not because of us. It's because the amazing volunteers 547 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 4: and the amazing churches and amazing people like yourself that 548 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 4: have been out there and supporting it. And so I'm 549 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 4: just so humbled. And one of the reasons I love 550 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 4: to talk about it because it wasn't even my idea 551 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 4: of someone else's idea, and they brought it to us 552 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 4: and they say, hey, what do you think about this? 553 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,719 Speaker 4: And the only thing I said is, man, that's awesome. 554 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 4: We need to do it everywhere around the world. And 555 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 4: our heart is to get to maybe one day every 556 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 4: country so that every boy and girl that has never 557 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 4: been cheered, celebrated and loved on the way they should 558 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 4: would know their true worth and value. Because many places 559 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 4: around the world, children and individuals with special needs are 560 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 4: treated as lesson, as as cursed, as insignificant, and we 561 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 4: want to change that narrative. We want them to know 562 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 4: that every single person has great worth and value, has 563 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 4: created in the image of God, and we want to 564 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 4: celebrate in that way so they truly know how valuable 565 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 4: they are to their creator. 566 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 3: Well, you are doing a great job.

So I had a 590 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 2: double misectomy and reconstructive surgery, and I know what it's 591 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 2: like when you wake up from surgery and you have 592 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 2: surgery done to your body that you didn't really ask 593 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 2: for but you ended up with it. This one's a 594 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 2: little bit different though. This is kind of horrifying. So 595 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 2: this woman, this is also a warning, like, don't go 596 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 2: to another country and have plastic surgery done. Probably not 597 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 2: a good idea. So this woman, she's sixty five years old, 598 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 2: She's an American woman. She traveled to Mexico to get 599 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: a skin tightening surgery and woke up to breast in 600 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 2: plants in a Brazilian butt lift. Let me tell you, 601 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 2: if you watch the story, this is not a lady 602 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 2: that looks like she went to Mexico to get a 603 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 2: Brazilian butt lift. She really looks like she was like 604 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: trapped in a skin curtain and wanted to get out 605 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: of it, right. She just wanted to have an inexpensive 606 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: surgery done in Tijuana, Mexico. 607 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 3: Don't do this. 608 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,959 Speaker 2: She was expecting to wake up to ninety inches of 609 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: excess skin gone. 610 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: She woke up to big boobs. 611 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 2: And a Brazilian butt lift. She went into surgery at 612 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 2: four o'clock in the afternoon, came out at one thirty 613 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 2: in the morning. Okay, so this is just a warning 614 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 2: for all of you. If you wake up after surgery 615 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: and you suddenly have big boobs and a Brazilian butt lift, 616 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: it's going to be shocking. Do this in the United 617 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 2: States and then you are going to be freed from 618 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: the skin you are trapped in and you will not 619 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: have excess body parts. You were not intending this to me. 620 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, I've woken up from surgery before and 621 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: looked in the mirror and been like, this is not 622 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 2: my body.

They were gonna put her in jail, 636 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 2: but she ended up with an infection and ended up 637 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 2: in a hospital in San Diego.
