We're together, 2 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: we are charting the course of America's culture. Will comeback. 3 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: My name is job Bob. Thanks so much for tuning 4 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: in this evening on real America's Voice. You know, a 5 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: lot of people, and rightly so, are concerned about the 6 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 1: younger generation. I think Jerry Seinfeld said, don't get them wrong, 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: the younger generation is here to replace us, and that's 8 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: exactly true. And there's a lot of grumbling about the 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: younger generation. But I feel and a lot of people 10 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 1: are starting to feel very optimistic about the upcoming gen 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: Zers and then the jen Alf. I think that's evidenced 12 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 1: by how many students show up to these Charlie Kirk 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: events on campuses, and I think it is an optimistic 14 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: sign for the future of this country. One of the 15 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: brightest lights, I think in this optimistic sign is one 16 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: name Hannah Faulkner, who joins us now.

Twenty sixteen movie 73 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: called Captain fantastic, and I think it kind of depicts 74 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: this ever shifting change in how people see homeschooling. 75 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 11: Right. 76 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: I kind of thought homeschooling was weird when I was 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: growing up, and I'm sure everybody older than me is like, ah, yeah, uh, 78 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: but Hannah, I mean, how applicable is that to your situation? 79 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: Because you got the Constitution behind you with the American flag. 80 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: Not many kids have that. 81 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: You know What's interesting, I actually saw that clip a 82 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago for the first time. 83 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: I've never watched the movie, and I. 84 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 3: Saw that clip and I thought, Wow, this is actually 85 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: a realistic picture of what our society. 86 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: Looks like in twenty twenty five public school. 87 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 3: Kids versus homeschooled kids, and even four years ago, even 88 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 3: as a homeschool student four years ago, I saw a 89 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: lot of the homeschool students around me, and it kind 90 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 3: of like there was still a lot of social awkwardness, 91 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 3: you know. It was like, oh, like is this like 92 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: the is it true about the sigma of homeschoolers. But 93 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: I really think within the last couple of years, like 94 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 3: even a year two years ago, after COVID nineteen, I 95 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: think parents homeschool parents, parents in general obviously started homeschooling 96 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: their children, but started educating them on the history of 97 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 3: this nation, like the Declaration of Independence behind me, like 98 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 3: our constitution, our founding documents, what made this country great? 99 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: And I actually went to public school. My first year 100 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: in public school was in kindergarten, and I that was 101 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 3: the only time that I spent in public school because 102 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 3: two of my teachers, two of my favorite teachers at 103 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: the time, because I really had no idea, were a 104 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: part of the LGBTQ cult. 105 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 2: Rainbow sex cold as I call it, and they. 106 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 3: Were proudly displaying it across the classroom for us as 107 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: five year olds to see. 108 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: And this is in the conservative state of Tennessee. But 109 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: not just that. 110 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 3: I remember one specific day when obviously there was campaigns 111 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: going around for Barack Obama and his opponent, but the 112 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 3: school was specifically touching on Barack Obama and they had 113 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 3: this iPad. They were passing around this iPad and they said, 114 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 3: who would you vote for? And they said, we would 115 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: encourage you to vote for Barack Obama. So obviously they 116 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 3: were brainwashing these kids at five years old in a 117 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 3: conservative state like Tennessee on who to vote for, not 118 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: how to think for yourselves, but what to think and 119 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: who to vote for. And so I started coming home 120 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 3: telling my parents all of these incidents. I was always 121 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 3: put on red because, of course, the indoctrination camps don't 122 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 3: like when students ask questions, and I was tending to 123 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: ask them questions. So my parents homeschooled me, and I'm 124 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 3: very grateful for that, because if it weren't for me 125 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 3: being homeschooled, they definitely would not have been able to, 126 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: you know, race motocross competitively when I was thirteen and fourteen, 127 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 3: then write the book and start the podcast and travel 128 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 3: the country. But we're definitely seeing what I like to 129 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 3: call like a homeschool revolution in this country because parents 130 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 3: are finally waking up to the fact that it is 131 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: almost a So it's even a dumb idea to think 132 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 3: that your kids are going to become these extremely smart 133 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: social students by sending them to a classroom with a 134 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: bunch of illiterate, not very bright, not social students, and 135 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden they're going to become some socialized, 136 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: you know, very smart, intelligent person. Obviously, parents are finally 137 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: waking up to that. Kids are finally waking up to 138 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 3: that they're wanting to be homeschooled. They're wanting to understand 139 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 3: the truth about this country, and they're pushing back against 140 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 3: the narrative. So it's exciting stuff we're seeing, especially from 141 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 3: someone who's been homeschooled since I guess first. 142 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: Grade at this point. 143 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well, I mean this is a you know, 144 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: if you're a parent or a grandparent, this is a 145 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: great opportunity to check out Turning Point Academy. Get your 146 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: kids out of the woke mind virus schools that are 147 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: plaguing this country. Hannah, growing up now, kind of in 148 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: your generation, what do you see amongst your peers and 149 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: your friends that are going to be kind of the 150 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: peak conservative issues going forward? Every generation kind of has 151 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: their issue. Are what are kind of the conservative issues 152 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: that you're seeing among your friends and family around your age? 153 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: You know, I really think. 154 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 3: People are starting to wake up realizing that something as 155 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: the feminist movement has really destroyed the family unit. It 156 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 3: has pitted men and women against one another. And I 157 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 3: really am starting to see gen z and young people, 158 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 3: even millennials, start to realize that men and women are different, 159 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 3: that we must protect the family. You know, the last 160 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 3: chapter of my book and the chapter before last, I 161 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 3: title it the greatest issue facing America, and that's what 162 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 3: I believe to be the breakdown of the family unit 163 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 3: between one man and one woman. Strong families make strong nations, 164 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 3: and the reason why the Communists have always feared strong, 165 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 3: godly structured families because they cannot control them. And so 166 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: once they can collapse the family unit, they will take 167 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 3: full control of society. And that's exactly what they've done 168 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: to the feminist movement. And I break down the feminist movement. 169 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: How we got to the point where. 170 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 2: Now we even have men in our bathrooms. 171 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 3: And a lot of people don't realize is that the 172 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 3: feminist movement is the reason why we're fighting this transgender 173 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 3: issue today, because in the eighties and nineties, they were 174 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 3: pushing this notion that there is no difference between men 175 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: and women. 176 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 2: It's just a social construct. So if there's no difference 177 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: between men and women, then why. 178 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: Does it matter that they're in our spaces and in 179 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 3: our sports today. And so once you start to pull 180 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 3: back all the layers and the curtains on these issues, 181 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 3: you realize that indeed, the greatest issue facing our country 182 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 3: is the breakdown of the family. And if we don't 183 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 3: start recognizing our rules as men and women and in 184 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 3: this society and in our world, we're not going to 185 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 3: be able to take back the family. 186 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 13: You know. 187 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: But I'm starting to see the shift and people of 188 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 3: young people starting to get back into church, starting to 189 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 3: recognize their role as a woman, regardless of whether they're 190 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 3: married or not. 191 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: And same thing with men. They want to be masculine. 192 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 3: They want to be able to protect and lead and 193 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 3: provide for someone, even if it's not their family, but 194 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: their immediate family. It's exciting stuff that we're seeing people 195 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 3: finally started to wake up. But I would have to 196 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 3: say the family unit and our rules of society as 197 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 3: men and women. 198 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: So the book is called Last Chance to Save Our Republic. 199 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: What in the world is is this seventeen year old 200 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: doing writing a book like that? 201 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 9: This? 202 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: And this is I say that in the most complementary 203 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: of ways, this is not a normal thing for an 204 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: average American seventeen year old to do. Why'd you write it? 205 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: What's your main point? And what's kind of the message 206 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: you're trying to get across? 207 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 4: You know what's interesting? 208 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 3: Actually I kept telling my dad I was never going 209 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 3: to write a book, and that was not in my 210 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 3: path or in my plan. But in twenty twenty three, 211 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 3: I hosted the first Teams Against Gender Mutilation rally in 212 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 3: January of twenty twenty three with actually Turning Point USA 213 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 3: and TPUSA Faith. We had six hundred attendees, two hundred protesters, 214 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 3: and I realized, obviously there was an epidemic of this 215 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 3: generation that was confused on their identity, confused on something 216 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 3: as simple as their sex, their biological sex, of whether 217 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: or not they're male or female. As I solved this problem, 218 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 3: and shortly after, I got invited by General Flynn to 219 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 3: speak at a Rewake in America tour, and I started 220 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 3: traveling and speaking and hosting more Turning Point events, and 221 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 3: my dad told me, he said, heynaw, you need to 222 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 3: start a podcast and write a book. 223 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: And I told my dad, I said, I'm not doing that. 224 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 2: I'm not writing a book, I'm not starting a podcast. 225 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: I'll continue the Turning Point chapter that I had hosting 226 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: events and traveling and speaking. 227 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 2: But it's not going to go any further than that. 228 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: And then I decided September of twenty twenty three, I 229 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 3: decided to sit down and I would just start writing. 230 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: And I started with the fifth chapter when I titled 231 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: the Poison of Gender Ideology, because that was the issue 232 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: that I had seen with my own eyes. And I 233 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 3: started writing, and I was blown away by the information 234 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 3: that I was finding, one being the first genital mutilation 235 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 3: surgery did not happen, you know, in twenty fifteen, It 236 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 3: did not happen into It was in nineteen sixties. The 237 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 3: first genital mutilation surgery in this country was at the 238 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,839 Speaker 3: John Hopkins Hospital by John Money to a main a 239 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 3: man named Avon Wilson, and things like that, you know, 240 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 3: looking back to Alfred Kenzie and now today where you've 241 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 3: got thousands upon thousands of de transitioners and young people 242 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 3: that have been lied to by the medical industry. 243 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: And that's just one chapter. 244 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 3: But I started to realize that these are things that 245 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 3: no legacy media outlet is willing to talk about. Finally, 246 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 3: you've got independent journalists like yourself and Real America's Voice 247 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 3: that are talking about it, but very few people, very 248 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 3: few legacy media outlets, are willing to come out and 249 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: talk about this. 250 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: And so I started. 251 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 3: Researching more and more, and then you go to the 252 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 3: first chapter, the founding of the American Nation. Things that nobody, 253 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: even our politicians don't know. We're not a democracy, We're 254 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 3: a public because democracies never last. Something as simple as that, 255 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 3: you know, there's just so many things that we hear 256 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 3: all the time that nobody has really pulled back the 257 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 3: layers on unless you're an independent journalist. It's just not happening. 258 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 3: It's not being talked about on these legacy media outlets. 259 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: So that's a little bit about why I wrote the 260 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 3: book and a little bit about what's inside. 261 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: You know, Hannah, I probably speak on behalf of the 262 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: entire audience too.

And Charlie Kirk, obviously, to his credit, 287 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: noticed this, I think way before a lot of the 288 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: other people in the conservative moments. Yes, you want to 289 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,479 Speaker 1: have the rational, logical conversations, but that's not how everybody 290 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: comes to the light of the conservative movement. Sometimes they 291 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: see a funny re or they see a piece of 292 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: music by an artist who is you know, molding their 293 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: their image in kind of a conservative way. There's a 294 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: lot of different ways people come to conservatism, and part 295 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: of that is through humor, which is what you're especially 296 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: has been on the internet.

Let's let's give people a clip taste of 299 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: kind of what it is that you do on social media. 300 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: Watch this. 301 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 11: All I'm saying is, I don't think it's fair that 302 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 11: we renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Okay, 303 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 11: but you're fine with renaming military basis. 304 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 4: Like Fort Bragg to Fort Liberty. 305 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 11: You renamed football teams and the definition of a woman 306 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 11: Fort Hood to Fort Cavazos. You're also okay with rebranding 307 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 11: Starrup and rebranding Eminem's Fort Benning the Fort Moore doctor 308 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 11: seuss folks, because somehow they're considered hate speech. Fort Rucker 309 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 11: to Fort Novacel, Mister potato head is now just potato 310 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 11: head to beach inder, neutral, Fort Hill to Fort Walker, 311 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 11: pronouns and emails and now the national anthem at events, 312 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 11: boyfriend and girlfriend to now partner, a legal immigrant to 313 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 11: undocumented worker, riots to mostly peaceful protest criminal inmates to 314 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 11: justice involved individuals, Merry Christmas to Happy Holidays, Christmas break 315 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 11: to winter break, blacklist and whitelist to blocklist and allow list, 316 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 11: and Disney even renamed Splash Mountain, and then you got 317 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 11: mankind to Humankind, Fort Lead to Fort Greg Adams, and 318 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 11: the list goes on. But you're right, changing the ocean 319 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 11: name it's too much. 320 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I hadn't seen that full thing. It 321 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: just keeps going and going and going. So samta welcome. 322 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: You know what, why why is that kind of I 323 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: mean your generation overall, but you specifically, why is that 324 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: the area in which you decide, Hey, this is what 325 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: I think I can do best to again change hearts 326 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: and minds in the in the country. 327 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's a great question. 328 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 11: I love using humor, and I think that political debates 329 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 11: can often trigger people's emotional walls, but comedy can disarm people. 330 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: And a lot of. 331 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 11: Democrats comment, They're like, this is ridiculous. Democrats don't say 332 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 11: things like this. And whenever I'm using my comedy skits 333 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 11: and I'm saying Republican versus Democrat, I'm never saying anything 334 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 11: as a Democrat that I haven't seen or heard Democrats say, 335 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 11: whether it's online or in person. And it's funny because 336 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 11: I'll repost videos of the Democrats actually saying what I 337 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 11: claimed they were saying in the comedy skits for them 338 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 11: to see how. 339 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 4: Ridiculous it really does sound, because it is. 340 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 11: It's ridiculous to change all of those names and then 341 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 11: complain that we're changing the ocean to Gulf of America. 342 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I love that. It's part of that 343 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: whole thing where sometimes you can't really tell sarcasm from 344 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: real world anymore. Because I love how you put that. 345 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: I've never said anything that I haven't heard other people say, 346 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: which I think is fascinating, you know, given the fact 347 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: that he kind of touched on the whole idea of 348 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 1: like debating, right, I personally given a guy who I'm 349 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: very I'm serious about politics, but don't take myself too seriously, 350 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: and I think you're you're kind of the same. I 351 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: kind of see myself at least and feel free. I 352 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: love your commentary in my particular situation. I see myself 353 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: as like the conduit to Charlie Kirk. Right, He's gonna 354 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: make better arguments than I am. He's gonna be better 355 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: in the rhetorical space. And if I can get somebody 356 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 1: to laugh on the Internet, they click on my page 357 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: and then maybe fumble around what's turning point or who's 358 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 1: Charlie and then they click That's when they can kind 359 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: of get super red pilled. Is that kind of how 360 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: you see your kind of work and how it might 361 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: organically filter through to maybe people that are doing more 362 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: of the explaining. 363 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 11: I totally agree. Yeah, I'm not the biggest debater in 364 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 11: the world either. I think Charlie Kirk's probably the most 365 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 11: the smartest person I've ever seen, Like he can quote 366 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 11: an entire encyclopedia and not me. And I like to 367 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 11: tell people like, I'm just your average American. It's not 368 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 11: that I know more information than you. I'm just a 369 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 11: patriotic person. I'm an average American And I like to 370 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 11: break things down in a way that's understandable for the 371 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 11: average American like me, because I feel like a lot 372 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 11: of people are saying things that we just don't understand 373 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 11: sometimes and I'm like, can you break that down in 374 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 11: the English language? And I feel like these skits are 375 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 11: just like digestible for people to hear and understand. And 376 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 11: a lot of people message me all the time and 377 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 11: they're like, can you break this down for me? I 378 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 11: don't understand it, And you just have a gift on 379 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 11: you know, being able to make people understand things better. 380 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, I mean. 381 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 11: If I can do it, anyone can do it, honestly, because, 382 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 11: like I said, I'm just your average American girl. 383 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I'm curious because you've gotten a lot 384 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: of traction online on social media because I think there's 385 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: an appetite for that. I think there's a hunger for 386 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, not that again, not that that's putting down 387 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: any of the serious stuff, but there is a hey, 388 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: there's a lot of serious stuff and maybe this is 389 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: a nice break from that. As they're scrolling through. What 390 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: has the reaction been from I guess people obviously people 391 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: you don't know, but then even from your close family 392 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: and friends of you know, this kind of content that 393 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: you're putting out. 394 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 11: I've had all different kinds of reactions. So I grew 395 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 11: up in Los Angeles around a lot of Democrats, who 396 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 11: are my friends that I love, but I have unfortunately 397 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 11: lost some friendships when they found out that I was Republican, 398 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 11: which was going to come out of the you know, 399 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 11: it was going to come out eventually, but they have 400 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 11: this whole perception of you that just because you support Trump, 401 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 11: your ex y and Z even though they've known you 402 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 11: your whole life. But then I've had other friends who 403 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 11: I had no idea were Republican in LA. 404 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 4: And they're like, I love your content. 405 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 11: I had a guy message me and he's a part 406 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 11: of the LGBTQ community. I grew up with him, and 407 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 11: he's like, I could never tell any of my friends 408 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,959 Speaker 11: that I'm a Trump supporter. 409 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,239 Speaker 4: They would oust me. And I'm like, that's insane. And 410 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 4: he's out in LA. And I had no idea. 411 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 11: Because you know, you're growing up not political when you're young, 412 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 11: although kids are very political these days, but when I 413 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 11: was young. 414 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 4: I was like, who's President? I don't know. 415 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 11: I'm twelve, Like I shouldn't know these things. But it's 416 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 11: really interesting to see a different reaction from different people. 417 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 11: So I've definitely had some people support me, and then 418 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 11: I've had officer reactions. 419 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: Too, so I'm curious. One of the things that I 420 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: saw was great, and we played this for our show 421 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: on our show a couple of weeks ago. If you 422 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: didn't catch it, go on the RAB website or YouTube 423 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: or anywhere you get your rumble, any of your video content. 424 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: You can see that video. But it's a video of you, 425 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: and I think it's your husband in the video, Am 426 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: I correct? And that yeah, the one we're playing on 427 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: the view roll that you're kind of like feeling out, Okay, 428 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: is this person gonna be okay with how I view 429 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: the world? And you kind of like take small steps 430 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: of like huh, I have an American flag in front 431 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: of my house. I don't wear a mask outdoor too, 432 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: I don't take and then you get all the way 433 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: to get all the illegals out of this country is 434 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: based on like a real life thing, because I think 435 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: a lot of people resonated with that sort of thing, 436 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: at least I did. Like this happens to me when 437 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: I meet people in real life outside of the political spectrum. 438 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: There's that kind of incremental how trying to get the 439 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: feel of somebody. What can I say without this person exploding? 440 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: And then you find out, oh, they're they're just as 441 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: basic as I am. 442 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 4: Oh for sure. 443 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 11: That was I'm not even kidding verbatim how our first 444 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 11: date went. 445 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 4: Really we're asking him. 446 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 2: I was like, so. 447 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 4: Did you get the COVID vaccine? 448 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: And then I. 449 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 11: And then I ended up asking him like just flat 450 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 11: out did you vote for Trump? Like I need I 451 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 11: need to know. I want to have the same morals 452 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 11: and beliefs as you like. We can disagree on little 453 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 11: things like whether we both like asparagus or not, but 454 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 11: we're not going to disagree. 455 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 4: On whether our boy is a girl. You know. 456 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 11: Yeah, things are very important, and I feel like it 457 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 11: didn't used to be a big divide being a Republican 458 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 11: and Democrat, Like, I don't remember there being a huge 459 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 11: divide until you know, like twenty sixteen. It's like we're 460 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 11: completely divided now, which I hate. But we're thinking totally 461 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 11: opposite ends of the spectrum. So I want to know, 462 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 11: you know, we're going to agree on the majority of 463 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 11: things together and how we raise our children. 464 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: Well, and that's a risk for him too, because you're 465 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 1: asking point and blank, who did you vote for. He's 466 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: got to go, oh, shoot, well, this is either gonna 467 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: go great or we're gonna break up right here. And now, 468 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: unfortunately that wasn't the case, you know, just in our 469 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 1: last couple of minutes here. What is the future of 470 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: online content? I don't even want to necessarily say conservative 471 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: media because that is such a big and massive thing 472 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: that isn't really defined super well. What does the future 473 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: of the content look like that you're gonna be putting out. 474 00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: What do you think creators in the conservative space are 475 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: going to start doing. Is it going to get more 476 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 1: political less political? What is your kind of just take 477 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: on the trajectory the next couple of years. 478 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 4: Well, I think a. 479 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 11: Lot of people love watching people on TikTok and Instagram 480 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 11: post content because we're sharing the truth and we're giving 481 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 11: our opinions, which it's so hard to find truth nowadays. 482 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 4: I'm always having people message. 483 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 11: Me and asking for my sources, and I'm like, honestly, 484 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 11: I just read the bill. 485 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 4: I'm just reading the bill. 486 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 11: I'm not doing anything crazy, And I think the future 487 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 11: that's a great question. I really don't know where it's 488 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 11: going to go. I'm seeing kind of mixed things happening 489 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 11: right now. I'm seeing some people who who are for 490 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 11: Trump and they advocated for him now kind of turning 491 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 11: on him in a way. And then I'm seeing other 492 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 11: people who are like I was a hardcore Commala supporter 493 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 11: and now I'm a Trump supporter, and so we're just 494 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 11: seeing different things happen. But I definitely think that content 495 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 11: creators are the future media because we're just seeing that 496 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 11: they're more trustworthy than actual media these days. 497 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 6: Yeah. 498 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: I tell people that all the time too, And I 499 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: think you might agree. Here is some people might get 500 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,239 Speaker 1: things wrong, it's just whether or not you can trust them. 501 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: I can't trust any of the mainstream media anymore. And 502 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: there are people that I disagree with, but at least 503 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: I trust them to be honest with me, which I 504 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: think is the biggest thing that online content creators are 505 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: are able to do. Uh But the whole source thing 506 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: is fascinating. A man can't be a woman. Put your 507 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: source on that. Yes, I have eyeballs. I don't know 508 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: what else to tell you.

Do you think 527 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 14: it's really weird how the mainstream media is all of 528 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 14: a sudden saying it's rightly extremism to talk about vaccines 529 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 14: and raw milk? I mean, right, am I crazy that 530 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 14: it was Hollywood liberals who were the ones who were 531 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 14: not vaccining their kids and drinking raw milk. 532 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 15: But this, by the way, is why I refuse to 533 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 15: put a label on myself and I refuse to become tribal, 534 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 15: because the only reason they've moved in that direction is 535 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 15: because they feel like they'll be cast out of their 536 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 15: party if they don't. 537 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 1: Everybody knows this. 538 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 15: Is bananas, except the crazy, super fringe woke few that 539 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 15: are like this tail that's wagging the dog. And then 540 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 15: some of us just get purged like Anna, like myself 541 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 15: and for the first time we can see the sun, 542 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 15: you know. But with that said, I'm seeing stuff that's 543 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 15: so crazy. It's hard to map my head around outside 544 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 15: of health. Like I was just on sann last night 545 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 15: because I think now, to be honest, I think that's 546 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 15: really where we need to be. 547 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's so easy to go on fugs. 548 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 15: We need to be places where we're fighting for minds well. 549 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 15: And I have the Maha movement. 550 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 14: This is what people need to understand when it comes 551 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 14: to the midterms coming up. And I think you can 552 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 14: echo this beautifully. Maha, I think is one of the 553 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 14: most powerful political arms we have of the Trump Adman. Sure, 554 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 14: if we need to keep pressing and promoting Maha, if 555 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 14: we want to win midterms, we need to keep these people. 556 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 14: We gain millions of voters based on this issue. We 557 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 14: need to keep them keep talking about it. So I 558 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 14: hope the President you know people, will hear this on 559 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 14: in his camp in RFK and just be motivated to 560 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 14: keep pushing MAHA as we go into the midterms. 561 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 15: I couldn't agree with you more, but I think what 562 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 15: you're seeing is crazy. 563 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 6: Let me lay this one at your feet. 564 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 15: Okay, So I'm not sure when this airs, but recently 565 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 15: two marijuana fields in California were rated by ice. I'm 566 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 15: on CNN and they're talking about how Ice injured the 567 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 15: farm workers. Can we do you mind if we pause? 568 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 15: Would you like me to shine some light on why 569 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 15: you lost the last election, because the vast majority majority 570 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 15: of US are horrified about the fact that there are unaccompanied, underage, 571 00:27:50,520 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 15: undocumented children who are likely trafficked working on a weed farm, 572 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 15: Like if you think them demonizing raw milk is bad 573 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 15: like this, And then one of them made a case 574 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 15: and said, no, no, no, it's legal for twelve year olds 575 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 15: to work in agriculture in California, where it actually is. However, 576 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 15: Glasshouse would need a license that permits miners under the 577 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 15: age of eighteen, which they did not have. It is 578 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 15: in fact illegal. But my point is, how are we 579 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:22,719 Speaker 15: having these arguments? 580 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 8: Yeah? 581 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 15: Nevertheless, we need to keep having them. It's it's not 582 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 15: just maha. Maha is an extension of what God said 583 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 15: truly calls the woke mind virus. 584 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 14: It is a problem when it comes to the American 585 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 14: chronic disease crisis. Did you always know that food was 586 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 14: the problem or for a while did you think they're 587 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 14: not exercising enough, they're too sedentary? And do you feel 588 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 14: like I made a mistake then? Or no, you always 589 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 14: knew it was the food. 590 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 4: You know what. 591 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 15: Here's where I really appreciate the MAJA report. For whatever 592 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 15: flaws and errors it had, it did identify the four 593 00:28:55,440 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 15: key problems, and they are all problems. Food okay, sedentary 594 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 15: lifestyle yeah, crop in the environment big one, and over medicalization. 595 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 15: Now would I wait them all equally? 596 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: No, but kind of close. 597 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 6: I might. 598 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 15: I might put over medicalization of like ten percent, but food, uh, 599 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 15: sedentary lifestyle and chemicals I would. I would almost wait equally. 600 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 15: I think they're all equally dangerous. 601 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: And you always felt that way or this is I. 602 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 6: Always felt that way. 603 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 15: There was an evolution with food, and that came when 604 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 15: I was in my very early thirties because I couldn't 605 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 15: understand why, despite the fact that I was a healthy 606 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 15: weight and I was exercising, I still had a host 607 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 15: of health issues, nodules on my thyroid, pcos malasma, my face. 608 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 15: I'm like, this just doesn't add up. What am I 609 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 15: missing here? And that's when I ended up writing Master 610 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 15: Metabolism with a board certified end of Chronologist and really 611 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 15: expanding my understanding. 612 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 6: About the quality of food. 613 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 15: And I had to do a big miacopa about the 614 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 15: previous books as I throwout all of those recipes with 615 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 15: splendor and soybean oil. 616 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, so bad. 617 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 14: What is your elevator pitch to keep somebody motivated on 618 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 14: their fitness journey if they just are like, I can't 619 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 14: do this anymore. 620 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: Gosh, my elevator pitch. 621 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 4: My elevator pitch, I guess would be what choice do 622 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 4: you have? 623 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 15: Because if you don't do it anymore, then it is 624 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 15: a foregone conclusion you will die sooner of something horrible. 625 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 15: If that doesn't matter to you, then my pitch doesn't 626 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 15: matter either way. But the more people try to avoid 627 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 15: the thing they're afraid of, I don't want to deal 628 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 15: with it. I don't want to face it, you manifest 629 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 15: the thing you don't want to deal with. And I 630 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 15: keep trying to explain that when you play all these 631 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 15: scenarios out of like, what if I try and it 632 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 15: works amazing? What if you try and you fail, well, 633 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 15: you learn from the lesson, you reapproach more intelligently, and 634 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 15: success as a matter of attrition. What if I do nothing. 635 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 15: Everybody thinks nothing happens. It's not nothing that happens. It 636 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 15: is an absolute guarantee that you will manifest the very 637 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 15: thing you are trying to avoid. That is what happens. 638 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 15: So that's my elevator pitch. You kind of have no 639 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 15: choice if you care even an iota, If you could 640 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 15: offer one remedy to Healisic culture physically, emotionally or spiritually, 641 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 15: what would it be. 642 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 4: Be true to yourself. 643 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 15: I think once you're true to yourself, you start prioritizing yourself. 644 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 15: And when you prioritize yourself, you act on all of 645 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 15: these different fronts, no matter how big or how small, 646 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 15: each and every one of those actions adds Zobie. Small steps, 647 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 15: small successes equal big wins over time. Be true to yourself, 648 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 15: Be authentically you. You'll value yourself more. You'll build your 649 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 15: self worth and your self esteem. And from that place, 650 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 15: you work out because you love your body, not because 651 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 15: you hate it. From that place, you make these steps 652 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 15: because you know your inherent value. 653 00:31:59,480 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 8: Got it. 654 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 13: Meer what you've been able to do, not to weaponize, 655 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,479 Speaker 13: but to organize on these college campuses. 656 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 7: At Turning Point, USA, We've spent thirteen years building the 657 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 7: machine and last year we sought payoff.

He can have Bernie Sanderson 834 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 16: and he can have JD. Vanson and it's great. Yeah, 835 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 16: Like it's amazing. 836 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,280 Speaker 6: So it makes us a little bit cooler. 837 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:52,919 Speaker 1: You're right, You're right, and that that is the whole 838 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: manister that they're trying to to define. They're like, how 839 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: can we do this? Like the fact that you're trying 840 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: to means that you won't like the fact that this 841 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: is your goal. Because Joe Rogan didn't. 842 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 8: Set out with a goal of the biggest podcast in 843 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 8: the world. He's like, I'm gonna set a microphone and 844 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 8: you start talking. Yeah, and that was it. 845 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: If you set out with the goal of changing hearts 846 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 1: and minds, you won't do it because it's sorry, let's 847 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: let's rephrase that if you set out a goal for 848 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: trying to indoctrinate people into the lib mindset, it's not 849 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 1: gonna work. I mean it's not gonna work in general, 850 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: but more specifically, forcing something that just won't get there 851 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: is not a good approach. 852 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,280 Speaker 16: So I hear that the liberal content creators are supposed 853 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 16: to come here today and do an unf America tour. 854 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 1: Another one. 855 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 6: I guess the last one stop so successful. 856 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, this won't fith won't work out well with 857 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 16: them either. 858 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 6: I heard this. I don't know if it's true. 859 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 16: Okay, I've I've been asked to go down not by them, 860 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,959 Speaker 16: but I've been asked if I wanted to go and 861 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 16: check it out, and I don't because it sounds pretty boring. 862 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 6: I want you to that sounds like fascinated we go 863 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 6: down there today? 864 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 8: Are you talking about me?

One of 878 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 7: our great partners and really great men that I learned 879 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 7: from and look forward to learning even more from is 880 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 7: Alan Jackson from Alan Jackson Ministries. 881 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:49,879 Speaker 12: Alan. 882 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 7: Great to see you again. 883 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 12: Good to be with you again, Charlie. 884 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 7: I remember we had you on the program maybe six 885 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 7: to nine months ago. 886 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 12: From about that for the election. I know that that's right. 887 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 7: So why don't you take a second to reintroduce yourself 888 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 7: to our audience. 889 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm a pastor. I serve a congregation just outside 890 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 12: of Nashville. I've been there for almost forty years from 891 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 12: a tent until today, so we've seen a lot of 892 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 12: change there. But really since COVID, I think we've been 893 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 12: a lot more engaged with culture. You know, it feels 894 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 12: like the curtain got pulled back when COVID happened in 895 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 12: places that I had trusted for information. Places that I 896 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 12: thought were like rock solid, like the CDC proved to 897 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 12: be a little less so. And it really started me 898 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 12: on this adventure of trying to engage our culture from 899 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 12: a biblical worldview. And so your voice is such an 900 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 12: important part of that. It's an honor to have some 901 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 12: time with you. 902 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 7: Thank you well, look forward to continuing to learn more. 903 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 7: You're in Murphy's Borough, Tennessee. Is that right? 904 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 12: That's it? 905 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 7: You got a world outreaks church. So I got it 906 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,439 Speaker 7: the first time. I deserve points for that. So tell 907 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 7: me about your ministry journey. You said you started in 908 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 7: a tent. Yeah, how old were you? And was this 909 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 7: a church that you started with your wife? Tell me 910 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,280 Speaker 7: the story now, the backstory is probably worthwhile. 911 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 12: I'll even go back other than that, my parents had 912 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 12: a Bible study in their home for twelve years and 913 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 12: the church came out of that. But the real root 914 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 12: of that was when I was eight years old, my 915 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 12: mom gave birth to my youngest brother. I've got two brothers. 916 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 12: We went to church every Sunday, but we weren't Christians. 917 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 12: Sitting in church doesn't make you a Christian. And when 918 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 12: she was in the hospital, the doctors diagnosed her with 919 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,360 Speaker 12: cancer and said she had six months to live and 920 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 12: they wanted to do some pretty dramatic surgery. So my 921 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:26,959 Speaker 12: parents scheduled a flight to Mayo Clinic. 922 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 7: In Rochester, Minnesota, YEP. 923 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 12: And on the flight, my mom said a prayer the 924 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 12: path they were the youth leaders actually in the Methodist 925 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 12: church at the time. The pastor came to visit her 926 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 12: and he didn't believe in heaven or hell. The problems 927 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 12: we have in the churches today are not new, They've 928 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 12: been there for a long time. Well, so she's flying 929 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 12: the Mayo Clinic and she said a prayer that if 930 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 12: there was a God, he would let her know the 931 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 12: truth before she died so she could tell her sons 932 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 12: to be Jewish or Baptist, Catholic, whatever that truth was. 933 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,319 Speaker 12: She didn't have any imagination that God could heal or. 934 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 12: And they did a four day work up at Mayo 935 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 12: and the doctor came in a room late at night 936 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 12: and said, missus Jack, you had cancer. We have pictures 937 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 12: of it, but we've looked for four days we can't 938 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 12: find it. Go home and raise your babies. So my 939 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 12: mom lived to be eighty eight. The doctors missed that 940 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 12: by fifty plus. 941 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 7: Years, and so that's not six months. 942 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 12: That started our journey into Christianity. And so my dad 943 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,760 Speaker 12: brought us to Middle Tennessee for the Tennessee Walking Horses 944 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 12: and started a bet practice, and they opened their home 945 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 12: for a Bible study. And when we moved to Middle Tennessee, 946 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 12: the schools were still segregated. It was a very different 947 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 12: place than it is today. And so they opened their 948 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 12: home to it looked like the Island of the Misfit Toys. 949 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 12: People from different nations, different colors, most of their lives 950 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 12: had some pretty gaping holes. And that was the genesis 951 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 12: of the church. So for two to three decades, I 952 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,399 Speaker 12: just put my head down and serve people. And then 953 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 12: I really I didn't like television ministries for a lot 954 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 12: of apparent reasons that we could probably all talk about, 955 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 12: and I certainly didn't want to be one of them, 956 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 12: and I understood that the assignment was directed that way. 957 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 12: So I started to change some of my behaviors and patterns, 958 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 12: and we started getting involved with some things in the media. 959 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 12: But at the end of the day, it's a heart 960 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 12: to see people engage with God. God changes lives. You know, 961 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 12: when I grew up in church. Ministers were long black robes, investments. 962 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 12: I remember seeing a pastor smile and I thought, you know, 963 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 12: I can't do that. I was on my way to 964 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 12: medical school because I thought I couldn't do that. But 965 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 12: I realized that faith was the most important thing in 966 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 12: my life. And so we just pushed all the chips 967 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 12: in the middle of the table and said let's go. 968 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 12: And we're still playing that hand out today. 969 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 7: And so explain to me how it has grown. As 970 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 7: Daisy fixes my ear plug. 971 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 12: It takes a lot of help for us to sit 972 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,280 Speaker 12: in these chairs. I know, we don't get here by ourselves. 973 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 7: Its like getting into a cockpit. Thank you, Daisy. Explain 974 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 7: to me, he looks the same that she tried her hardest. 975 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 7: You guys started with what one hundred people, and then 976 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 7: they started with twenty nine, twenty nine people? And what 977 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,919 Speaker 7: is the size you're at today on. 978 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,800 Speaker 12: A typical weekend, there's about fifteen thousand. 979 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:06,720 Speaker 11: Wow. 980 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 7: So and not counting the millions you reach. 981 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 12: Now that's not the broadcast side, but the community's growing. 982 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 12: Middle Tennessee's grown. It didn't happen in a vacuum, So 983 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 12: that would be misleading. And to be honest. For the 984 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 12: first ten years that nothing changed too much. We had 985 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 12: about two hundred people and it stayed that way. I 986 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,399 Speaker 12: had to learn, you know, I thought church was a mystery. 987 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 12: I thought God was a mystery. And when I came 988 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 12: to understand that spiritual change is as intentional as making 989 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 12: a medical diagnosis or putting it together an effective political campaign, 990 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 12: it's really not a mystery. It's hard work and its intentionality, 991 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 12: and it's incremental, and it's a choice you make every day. 992 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,240 Speaker 12: And when I understood that, then I began to understand 993 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 12: how to help people. And the more that happened, the 994 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 12: more people show up. 995 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:53,359 Speaker 7: So part of your cultural change project is to bring 996 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 7: a biblical worldview to the country. Yep, is that correct? 997 00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 7: Which I totally share. You said something quite interesting that 998 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 7: I want to spend some time on. Sitting in the 999 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 7: church doesn't make you Christian. A lot of people think 1000 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 7: it does. 1001 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 12: Yeah, well, And the label I usually use as a 1002 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 12: generic Christian. You don't declare yourself Buddhist or Muslim or agnostic. 1003 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 12: And in our culture, Christianity is still the predominant, probably 1004 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 12: spiritual voice, so people just self identify as Christian. But 1005 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,240 Speaker 12: being a christ follower is an intentional choice to yield 1006 00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,399 Speaker 12: the authority of your life to Jesus of Nazareth. It's 1007 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 12: not about joining a church or a denomination, or a 1008 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 12: style of worship, or even a day of the week 1009 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 12: when you get to gather or a building you sit in. 1010 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 12: It's a decision about a person, a historical figure, and 1011 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 12: your relationship with him is what make is what defines 1012 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 12: you as a christ follower. If Jesus isn't lord of 1013 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 12: your life, you know, it doesn't matter to me where 1014 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 12: you sit on Sunday morning. And I think there's a 1015 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 12: great deal of misunderstanding around that, and I think the 1016 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,840 Speaker 12: reason our nation is such trouble. Yes, you know, for 1017 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 12: several election cycles, I would hear people talk about the 1018 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,839 Speaker 12: sleeping of the church if it woke up. And I'm 1019 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 12: not really certain that sleeping giant lives there. You know. 1020 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 12: I've readen enough of doctor Barney's statistics. 1021 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 7: Then, enough to make you a little depressed. 1022 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 12: And I think we have to understand that it's informed 1023 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 12: our heritage. But that is the nature of faith. It's 1024 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 12: the story of the Bible. God does something remarkable for 1025 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,720 Speaker 12: a group of people, and they enjoy the opportunities that brings, 1026 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 12: and then they wander into the weeds and they get 1027 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 12: in trouble, and then they cry out for help and 1028 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,440 Speaker 12: go raises up a voice and he delivers them. That 1029 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 12: pattern is repeated throughout the story of Scripture, both Hebrew 1030 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 12: Bible and New Testament. And I think we're the twenty 1031 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 12: first century edition of that. We just about lost the 1032 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 12: freedoms and liberties that generations before us sacrificed for totally 1033 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 12: because we lost our worldview, we lost our grounding. We 1034 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 12: got so confused. We were reluctant to say that there's 1035 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 12: only two biological sexes. And I mean, that's like Bible 1036 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 12: one O one A. That's not pop political, that's like 1037 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 12: fundamental Christian stuff.
