And this holiday season, 0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:30.520 Jack and his team they're doing the hard work that 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:33.000 is in the true spirit of Christmas, and they're going 0:00:33.040 --> 0:00:36.600 above and beyond to make you know, Christmas unforgettable for 0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:39.920 hundreds of families all across the Free State of Florida, 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:43.159 my home state. And I couldn't be more proud of 0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:48.720 him for doing this and anyway, and they're helping hurricane victims, 0:00:48.760 --> 0:00:53.880 those in their fatherhood programs, delivering Christmas to families in need. 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:57.840 They're helping athletes in the NFL, a lot of people 0:00:58.000 --> 0:00:59.200 joining in with them to do this. 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:00.960 Brew How are you, sir? 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:03.800 I'm doing amazing, Sean. Man, it's such an honor to 0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:04.639 be with you again. 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.280 Well, the honors all mine. So tell me about what 0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:09.759 you got going on for Christmas. I need to get 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.360 into Christmas spirit. It's been hard because I've just been 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.679 so jacked up about the election and appointments and everything 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:17.440 else in between. 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:21.640 Yeah, you know, those things are obviously important because you know, 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.800 we're sick and tired of seeing policies that are destroying 0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:27.440 our family. Shaun, and I think that's why it's hard 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:29.840 for you to get over that mindset, you know, for 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:32.920 you know, the last four years, we've watched our families 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:37.399 be decimated, you know, broken apart. No one's advocating for 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:40.959 the kids that really needed. We have a followlessness crisis 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:42.920 that no one even talks about. I mean, we got 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:46.280 eighteen million kids in the United States of America growing 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:49.000 up without a father percentage wife. We are the most 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:52.360 foulest nation on earth. Yet we have all of these 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:56.120 amazing resources, and so we have to do something about it. 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.320 You see it in our education system, where you know, 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:02.760 we have higher school than the entire school districts. We're 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.559 not a single kid it's proficient at reading in mask 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:09.800 and the vast majority of those children are fatherless, living 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.440 off of the system. And that's just the reality of it. 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:15.440 Down here in Florida, you know, we're going into the 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:18.520 inner city communities. We're helping the alternative schools. We have 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:22.120 a school in Florida that we just delivered Christmas gifts, 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:25.560 new shoes to every kid in the school. But most 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:27.720 of these kids, over eighty five percent of those kids 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:30.640 are fatherless, and so you know what they need, you 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.880 know where the needs are, and we need more programs 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:36.440 man to help do that. I'm actually doing this interview 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.840 right now from South Bay Correctional facility of a supermax 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:45.320 prison run by the Jail Group in Florida, because we're 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:49.720 outside now trying to encourage these fathers. And then tomorrow night, Seawan, 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:54.640 we'll be delivering Christmas gifts to all the children of 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.840 these men. These these kids that haven't seen their dads 0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:01.280 for years. You know, they're basically punished for a crime 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:04.200 that their father committed, and they're followed. This kid, most 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.079 of them on the system, most of them, you know 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.799 a lot of them are you know, twenty times more 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:12.280 likely to end up in prison. No, seventy one percent 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:14.840 of every kid that drops out of high school in 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:18.800 America is fatherless. And so we see this crisis and 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.720 during the Christmas time, we have to do more for 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.919 our fatherless kids in America because that's the American way. 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:29.280 So that's what the Jack Burrewer Foundation really is is about. 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:33.360 You're conducting what is called your Fatherhood Blessing Tree and 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:37.480 Broward County Schools A. You're given these gift deliveries and 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:39.840 serving your community by doing this, and a lot of 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.680 people are donating. We'll put a link on Hannity dot com, 0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:46.160 which I think is great. And you're really, you know, 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:50.360 trying to address the crisis of fatherlessness, which I think 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:54.640 is a big deal. I mean, it is a major problem. Look, 0:03:54.760 --> 0:04:00.160 I understand things happen in marriages, et cetera, and the 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.120 marriages don't make it. It's a sad statistic. Hopefully you know, 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.160 over time things can change. But with that said, just 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.360 if that happens, that doesn't mean you check out and 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:12.680 say bye bye to your kids, right And I know 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.280 people that have done that, and I'm like, I could 0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:15.880 never do that. 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:17.240 That's not in me. 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:21.560 And I am active in my kid's life to this day. 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:25.360 I'm proud of both of them. And I was naive 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:27.880 and thinking that, well, they graduate college and my job 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:28.279 was done. 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:33.440 How stupid was I I was pretty stupid no have. 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.600 I have two older kids as well. I just became 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.920 a grandfather this year, so I'm super excited about that. 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:43.960 But yeah, I've been I've been rejuvenated when it comes 0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:46.920 to fatherhood because you know, after I see the crisis, 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:48.440 and then you know, I'm a man of God. I 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:51.120 read the Bible and it says defend the fatherless, you know, 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.360 last verse of the Old testamenty that he will turn 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.440 the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:59.239 hearts of the children to the fathers less out smite 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:01.600 the earth with a and I think a lot of times, 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:04.320 in a lot of ways, our nation has been hit 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.560 with that curse that the communities, you know, and unfortunately 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.360 shot out to make this political. But unfortunately, these are 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.760 a lot of blue, blue cities that are that are 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:17.080 run and you know, you have you know, welfare pushed 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:19.640 up on the people, and and and this mentality that 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.760 you should depend on the government, and this mentality that 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:25.720 you know, single bombs should be raising kids, and and 0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:28.520 and and not holding the falls accountable. We got to 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.280 stand up against that right now, man. And and as 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:34.159 we have this shift, this shift to to common sense, 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:37.640 I'll call it. After the election of President Trump, we 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.400 have to all start to get on one accord, uh 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:43.360 and be bold enough to talk about the real issues 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.960 without being scared of someone calling us racists or sexists, 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:49.400 or genderphobic, or or or biased. 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.760 It happens with every race, doesn't it. 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:58.160 It does, And it's you know, it's it's doubled in 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:01.960 white Americans. You know, it's at forty six, forty seven 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:05.839 percent in the Hispanic community. It's over seventy percent in 0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:09.640 the black community. So this thing is colorblind. You know, 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:13.640 followlessness is colorblind, and we need to do something about it. 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:17.000 And I think, you know, hopefully when President Trump gets in, 0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:21.039 he can continue that message. You know, appointed me to 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.359 the Civil Rights Commission's Commission on a Social Status a 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.719 Black men and boys. You know, I served there. Actually 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:29.800 my term is just coming up. They didn't get rid 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:32.160 of me, thank god. And so I think I'm going 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:36.440 to try to continue in that appointment role because I 0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:40.200 want to have a bipartisan message across the board to 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:45.279 every single congressional member, Senate member, and the executive branch 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:48.880 that we have to do something about our followlessness crisis. 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.520 And sean interviews like this man you've given your platform 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:55.600 to it. I mean, you're the perfect example of a 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.000 man that's masculine, a father figure, and that's what our 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.520 nation needs. You know, it's not about just our kids. 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:05.159 It's about the kids that don't have dads. Guys like me, 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.120 guys like you, Sham. We got to step up and 0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:10.920 be voices for those of those young boys and show 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.080 them how to tie a tie, show them how to 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.960 treat a woman, show them how to walker respect, tell 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:18.000 them why they should reach for their goals, and how 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.800 good this nation is. And I think we can really 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.240 change the landscape of our country. 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:24.040 Yeah. 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:26.040 I think it's a great thing that you're doing. One 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.200 other cool thing that you're doing as well, is you're 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:33.440 going into local prisons and you're going to have Christmas 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:35.960 in prison. You're going to have you know, a special 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:40.040 I guess Christmas joy and a worship service, a baseball 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.800 game with inmates featuring something more than a dozen NFL 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:46.720 players and boxers and MMA fighters are also joining in 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:48.880 with you. I mean, you got to get you got 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.880 together a really good group of people, and you know, 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.560 I think the only way that people that end up 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:57.200 in prison are going to get out and never go 0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.560 back is if they change their lives in prison, they 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:01.920 got to start right there, that's right, And the idea 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:04.280 that there are people that will support them and maybe 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.600 get them realigned with their faith and their values. And 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:11.440 if they don't, don't have them start finding them. Otherwise 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:12.760 they're going to come out. They're going to go right 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.440 back to the dopey friends and dopey family members that 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.120 they shouldn't be hanging around, and go right back into 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:19.960 trouble and end up right back where they. 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:23.360 Were, no question, Sean, you get it man, you get 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:24.880 it out. One day. I would love to have you 0:08:24.960 --> 0:08:27.480 come speak with our guys, because that's how well. 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:29.600 I spoke at rikers Ones. Let me tell you. They 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:33.800 never asked me back. Let me tell you about it, please. 0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:36.200 The true story, all right, So I'll tell you the story. 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.560 So I was invited and it was a religious ministry, 0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:43.240 and I probably shouldn't have done what I did, but anyway, 0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:46.280 so I said, first of all, I am not going 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:49.439 to speak more than five ten minutes, Max. I promise 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:53.160 somebody keep a clock and i'll stop. You know, well, 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:55.199 it's really going to be about five or six minutes. 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:57.680 And that's what it ended up being. And I want 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:02.640 hardcore deep in the paint. I used every expletive that 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:04.880 you would ever think of. I probably should not have 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:08.520 done that, but I wanted to speak their language. They 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:12.160 know that language, they identify with that language. And I'm like, 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:14.200 if you want a blanking come back here.

And you got to 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:53.080 shoot him straight, and that's why we use them. 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:55.120 Let me tell you some I would love to go 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.480 there anytime you want, and I would definitely love. 0:10:58.320 --> 0:10:58.680 To do that. 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:01.160 You can be real and not just dad. I can 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.720 tell you you're gonna change lives. You're gonna receive letters 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.880 of things, and you're gonna you're gonna be able to 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:08.120 hear from the families that that that change. I mean, 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:10.120 there's not. It hasn't been a time where I bought 0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.720 brought a prominent speaker that it hadn't like literally changed 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.120 dozens and dozens of men's perspectives because they don't believe 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.880 anyone cares. Uh. And so when you we show them 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.480 that we care, but then we hold them accountable. These 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:24.800 guys want to be held accountable. No one talks to me. 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:27.680 We talk about followlessness. Most of these guys in prison 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.640 didn't have a dad, They've never had a real male 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.240 influence that's positive in their lives. A lot of them 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:36.520 were abused as children, and so we have to treat 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:40.360 with the resources that we have, you know. And I 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:44.120 think I think having you come, Sean will be able 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:45.560 to be a great example of that man. 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:47.800 And it's uh, you know, it's I'm gonna be able 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:50.240 to tell them I started unable to pay my rent 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:54.800 in my adult life, and I started from nothing, and 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:58.000 and I'll tell them my story. And I've said it 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:02.559 doesn't matter. The word, you know, education is rooted in 0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:05.319 the Latin. It means to bring forth from with it 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:08.560 what is that predicated on the belief that God put 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.559 it there? A man, I believe that God created every man, 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:14.200 woman and child and put talent in every man, woman 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.000 and child. And I will tell them that. And your 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:20.600 job from this moment forward is to find whatever purpose 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:23.520 God put you on this earth for, and to serve 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:27.160 Him and to serve others. And you know, if there is, 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:29.920 if they're interested, I'll talk and I'll stay there as 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:30.760 long as they want me to. 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:35.560 That's amazing, No, I look forward to it. Man, I 0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:38.800 tell you, I hope this conversation puts you in a 0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:41.760 Christmas spirit, because you've motivated me just hearing you speak. 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:45.400 And I think that's what as Americans we need to remember, 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.600 is that you know, the Word of God tells us 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:51.199 that Jesus didn't come here to be served. He came 0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:53.280 here to serve and to give his life as a 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.240 ransom to many. 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:56.600 And who did Jesus love the most? 0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.959 He picked fishermen, and I'm sure they probably used saw 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.880 the language to be his apostles. 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:05.920 Who did he care the most about? The poor? 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:10.840 It's sick, the elderly, the disabled, you know, and and 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:13.920 the sinners. He didn't come He didn't come for, you know, 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:16.719 the people that were already righteous. He came for the 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:21.320 people that needed salvation, including yours. Truly, we've all send 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:22.240 them fallen short. 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:25.840 Yes, likewise, likewise. 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.000 You probably send a lot more than me. I'm just guessing. 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.439 No, I probably did, Sean, because I. 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:32.840 Was in that I'm only kidd man. 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:37.040 I've been very vocal about my seeings, and Shan, I was, Uh. 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:39.400 You know, I lived a life for a little while 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:42.200 and read, repented and gave my life to the Lord. 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.720 And that's why that's why I come to prison so much, 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:47.520 is because I truly, you know, I can. I can 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.560 relate to some of them. You know, I did some 0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:51.320 things that I ended up in jail too, but I 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:55.200 never got caught. And so you know, if you're real 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:57.640 with yourself, you know that God has given you so 0:13:57.840 --> 0:14:01.080 much grace, and so we can you know, we can't 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.440 earn grace through our works, but we can't earn it 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:06.800 through our faith. And my faith is in the Word 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.000 of God, and my faith is following what the Bible 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:11.840 tells us to do. And the Bible tells us to 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:15.400 visit those in prison as if we're with them in prison. 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:16.720 Hebrews thirteen and three. 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.040 All right, we'll put a link on Hannandy dot com 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:23.960 for the Jack Brewer Foundation. This is the Christmas spirit, 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:27.200 helping others in a time and need. And you know what, 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.560 it's cliche, but it's true. But giving is much better. 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:34.160 Your giving of yourself. That's even a greater gift. And 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:35.720 I want to help you in the next year, and 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:37.320 you have my word, I will be there. 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.480 Okay, thank you, Sean.

You're a fine girl, what 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:01.560 a good wife you would be. But my life, my love, 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:05.960 and my lady is the sea. It's about a fisherman. 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:08.600 I've actually looked it up looking glasses the name of 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:12.000 the band, and it was actually about a woman named Randy, 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:15.400 but they changed it for the song to Brandy. And 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:17.879 I've asked you in the past about this song and 0:17:17.920 --> 0:17:22.000 you've said, oh, well, Brandy's not a Brandy's the sea. No, 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.840 it's not the sea. It's a real woman. And I 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:26.399 looked it up and I even sent it to you. 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:28.320 Do you now understand how wrong you are? 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:28.800 I do? 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:30.159 I do. 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:33.359 Yeah, that's not very convincing. 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:35.840 I mean I was totally wrong about this, but I 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:37.800 have to say the way that you just performed it 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:41.240 to me, and that sort of like speak easy artist 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:44.919 spoken word. You know, it was very I mean, I 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:47.399 think that's what really drove home the true meaning of 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:48.040 the song to me. 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.119 So thank you, Sean Hannis song. 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:51.840 So you like the song? 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:54.040 I do now I like it the way you do it, 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:55.520 like in like a spoken word. 0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:57.640 Let sing the chorus over the verse. 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:02.159 Oh ever made you think that that that song with 0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:05.680 those very clear lyrics that even I can hear and 0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:09.080 obviously I don't have the best hearing that if I 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:13.240 can hear them and you hear them? Whatever made you 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.600 think that Brandy was the sea and that it wasn't 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:18.520 a real woman? Where did that come from? 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:18.680 That? 0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:21.640 I think what it really was too many graduate degrees 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:22.560 to think that way. 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:25.440 No, you know what my graduate degrees is actually the problem. 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.160 It made me be too interpretive. It made me think 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.040 that I was allowed to have my own opinion, when 0:18:30.040 --> 0:18:32.199 in fact I should have just been listening to the 0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:35.480 master of spoken word, Sean Hannity, and then it would 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:37.160 have all been clear to me. So you know what, 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.240 my Christmas wish has been granted, Sean. 0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:42.919 Okay, and then the second time around.

A woman can be very annoying, but 0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:55.679 a nice glass of brandy's always warm and friendly. 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.760 How would you say that about your own sex? 0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:01.240 Because I'm allowed, That's why you know. I'm not. 0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:02.560 So you're real. 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:05.240 So you just so you say it just because you're allowed. 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:07.760 Well, I'm allowed, and it's true. I mean, women are 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:10.000 are annoying. Men are annoying too, But I'm just saying, 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.920 like you could come home from a long time. Wait, wait, 0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:15.840 I'm gonna call I am not annoying. I am always 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:17.960 a good time. Do you know why? Because I am 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.080 a very pragmatic woman. I am not sens. 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.320 Around the first of all, you and. 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:26.359 I've been together twenty years now. You know I'm not 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:30.240 a crier.
