1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Your holster is way more important than you think it is.

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: It's just way more important than you think it is.

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: What look, and I get that. The holsters not the

4
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: sexy part of carrying firearms. All right, You want to

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: talk about your weapon and your ammunition. You want to

6
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 1: talk about your safety training. You want to talk about

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 1: how you did at the range. Oh, look at my groups.

8
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: I was doing these failure drills today, and all that

9
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: stuff is really important. I mean, really really important. I'm

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: not discounting that, but I've known so many people who

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: do all those things. They take all the necessary steps,

12
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: and then they carry with a holster they bought from

13
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: a big box hunting store that was made a thousand

14
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: at a time. Please don't put your life in one

15
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: of those holsters. You need to trust Northwest Retention Systems

16
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: because it's all custom made gear. It's the only thing

17
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: I carry around NW Retention dot Com. That's NW Retention

18
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: dot Com used to promo co Jesse gets you ten

19
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: percent off. This is a Jesse Kelly show. We have

20
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: given up operational control over a major portion of a

21
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 1: major American city. Oh this world, man, We'll get but

22
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: we'll get to that in a little while you know

23
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: we're not going to start off with that crap. I

24
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: was not doing it, Chris, I can't do it. Half

25
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: the time I'm talking history. It's because I want to

26
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: avoid the news. Oh gosh, let's go to Japan. Japan

27
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: is a fascinating place to me. I've always found it

28
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: to be extremely, extremely fascinating. Every part about it, modern,

29
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: one hundred years ago, three hundred years ago. I just

30
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: find it to be fascinating. Very very very different, culture,

31
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: very different. I have been to a couple different places

32
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: in Asia, and Japan is different. It is not like

33
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: everywhere else, certainly not like here. It's not like other

34
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: Asian nations. It's different. But we are going all the

35
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: way back to the year seventeen o one in Japan.

36
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: Now we need to do a brief little setup for you.

37
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: This is what it's like there, because let's be frank,

38
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: what do any of us really know about seventeen o

39
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: one Japan in pretty much nothing. So let's do a

40
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: little setup. Japan at this time has an emperor. Kind

41
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: of when I say kind of, this is what I mean.

42
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: They have an emperor. He is not as strong as

43
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: later emperors would be. Now, don't get me wrong. He

44
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: was still kind of thought of as a god, but

45
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: didn't really have any power. I know that's difficult to

46
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: wrap your mind around, but that's really what it was like.

47
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: He had power, but he wasn't calling the shots. He

48
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: had power, he had bodyguards, he had a fancy palace.

49
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure he had the best food, all the pretty ladies,

50
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: all the things an emperor has. But the emperor was

51
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: not some god king where he would just ride through

52
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: the countryside and do as he pleased. No no, no, no. Underneath,

53
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: but kind of not underneath, the emperor was something called

54
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: a showgun. Sweetest name ever. I think we can all

55
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: pretty much agree. In fact, I would like to from

56
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: now on be known as Jesse's Shogun Kelly. You can

57
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: still call me the Oracle. People can have multiple nicknames.

58
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: Please call me Shogun, yes, and Steel, Oracle, showgun or Steel,

59
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: any of those are fine for now. So Jesse Shogun

60
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: Kelly and the showgun. Underneath, but not underneath, the Emperor

61
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: was the military leader of the country. Japan was. It's

62
00:04:52,360 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: very it's a funny thing, extremely orderly, extremely traditional, yet

63
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: at the same time, always assassinations, always civil war, and

64
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: really you got to be showguns sometimes by winning one

65
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: of the civil wars. They had a huge one and

66
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: you came out on top. Emperors like, well, clearly you're

67
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 1: the big dog show gun. Now you got the emperor's

68
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: showgun thing out of the way. You don't have to

69
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: memorize those. It's not a story about those, even though

70
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: this is a sweet story. Underneath them were don Jo's

71
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: war lords. There were three hundred of them in Japan.

72
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: They ruled their own area. To make it easier for you,

73
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: and because I don't really care about official names, I

74
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: care about everybody kind of understanding what's happening, just consider

75
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: them three hundred states, three hundred dudes in charge of

76
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: those states. Now you need to get this. When I

77
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: say in charge, I mean in charge. The Donio ruled

78
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: his state and did anything he wanted to it. He

79
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: was not some elected official, he was not a governor,

80
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: he was not even you know why. I mean, he's

81
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: kind of in charge. But if we're unhappy with the

82
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: taxation system, we can go above his head. No, your

83
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: Donio in charge of you, rules over you and does

84
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: whatever he wants to you. And as you can imagine,

85
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: there were different Donyo's and boy, you want to talk

86
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,679
Speaker 1: about luck of the draw, There were many, many, many

87
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: people who lived under wonderful ones who believed in treating

88
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: their people well and taking care of everyone, and discipline

89
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: and honor and things like that, and there were several

90
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: who were just I mean through the math. What could

91
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: somebody do if he was basically a god king over

92
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: a state. How many stories have we told about that?

93
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: That the horrible things men are capable of, especially when

94
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: they're put in charge with total power over other men.

95
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: That's just a recipe for disaster all the time, which

96
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: brings us to where we are now. Now you're briefly

97
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: set up. Oh, and I shouldn't mention because it will

98
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: be critical to our story. Samurai, you know what a

99
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: samurai is, undoubtedly you've seen enough movies. You know what

100
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: a samurai is. Understand They were not just tough guys

101
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: wearing swords with armor on to be a samurai, which

102
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: that was about ten percent. And we like to view

103
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: Japan as well. It was a bunch of pretty hot

104
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: Asian chicks and samurais and there was nobody else. No,

105
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: it was a big society like any other big sty

106
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: They had merchants and traders and teachers and hookers and

107
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: everything else. As a society does from the top to

108
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: the bottom. You understand what I mean, like any other society.

109
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: But about ten percent were samurai. A samurai calls the shots.

110
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: A samurai is not not somebody who just walks around

111
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: with a sword on. In fact, during your training for samurai,

112
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: you were not allowed to walk around it actually walked

113
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: around with two swords on, a short one and a

114
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: long one. You were not allowed to walk around with

115
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: them unless you were a samurai. And once you became

116
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: a samurai, you were not allowed to walk around without them.

117
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: You were required to have them on. This was not

118
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: just sword fighting. It was a way of life to them.

119
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: You could easily if you looked at everything it entailed,

120
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: call it a religion. It is. It governed everything in

121
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: their lives. It was rigid discipline, extensive physical training, and

122
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: not just with the sword. You would not want to

123
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: be trapped in a room alone with a samurai today,

124
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: weapons or no weapons. These people were always fighting, wrestling,

125
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: becoming more and more I mean tough, that's what they were.

126
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: These people had a severe way of looking at the world.

127
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: When I say severe, I mean honor is everything to them.

128
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 1: When I say honor, I don't mean just you know,

129
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: don't insult my wife. I mean tiny things can lead

130
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: to open combat. The way you die is everything to them.

131
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: And death is in no way something you were taught

132
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: to dread as a samurai. You were taught to embrace it.

133
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: Just make sure you die the right way. Fast forward

134
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: to that story I told you a long time ago,

135
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: that famous story about hero Ainda. I'm getting a sign

136
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: that we're going to break, so you're gonna have to

137
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: hang on a second here about hero Noda. Hang on.

138
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: This is a Jesse Kelly show. Do you let your

139
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: kids go play in traffic in a busy highway? Probably

140
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: not right. It's probably not something you do because you

141
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: care about them. You protect your children, don't you. Then

142
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: why do you let them get on the internet in

143
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: your house without express VPN. That's essentially the Internet version

144
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: of letting them play in traffic. They are exposed online

145
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: unless you have Express VPN, which keeps you anonymous and protected.

146
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: Express VPN protects one of your data every single time

147
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: you get on the Internet in your home, And if

148
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: you don't have it, there are bad people out there

149
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: who can see what you're doing, what your children are doing.

150
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: Start protecting your family. Go to Express vpn dot com

151
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: slash jesse. That's Express vpn dot com slash jesse. Go there,

152
00:11:54,520 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: get it now, hero Anota. This is not a story

153
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 1: about World War two or any of that other stuff,

154
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: but hero Anoda just to give you some kind of

155
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: an indication how how honor worked back then. Hero Anotta

156
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: was a Japanese soldier during World War Two. He went

157
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: into the Philippines. He was told by his commander there

158
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: was there was a time in World War two where

159
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: the Japanese were really losing, and they knew they were losing,

160
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: and they would turn units loose. Essentially, they were told, here,

161
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 1: here's your island. Make life a living hell for people

162
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 1: who live here. Kill as many people as you can,

163
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: sabotage as many people as you can. Kind of sweet, right,

164
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: but just go. That's we don't have time to monitor

165
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: you or feed you. You have a good one. And

166
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: he's left there and I don't quote me on this,

167
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: I think nineteen forty four they leave him and other

168
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:17,359
Speaker 1: people on the Philippines. He doesn't come out until the seventies.

169
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: Until the nineteen seventies. He has been killing Filipino people

170
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: for thirty years. He still thinks the wars going on,

171
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: they would relatives would come see him, but he wouldn't

172
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: come out because he was only allowed to be relieved

173
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: by his commander. They would leave him stacks of newspapers

174
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: and he'd think they were all forged. Like no, Japan

175
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: didn't surrender since the seventies. The seventies, he came out.

176
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: They finally had to yank his former commander, who was

177
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: just a normal like Japanese merchant of some kind. They

178
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: had to pull him out of his daily job and

179
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: fly him to the Philippines so he could officially relieve

180
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: a nota so he would stop killing people in the

181
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 1: Filipino chuckle. But the most amazing part of that story

182
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 1: is what's not most amazing. This was this is back

183
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: to what I was talking about. He told the story

184
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: after and this was common practice his own mother. Pause

185
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: for a moment and think about your mother. Okay, how

186
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: much does your mother love you? Your mother loves you

187
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: in a unique way, doesn't she. I mean, I'm lord willing.

188
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: Your father loves you too, but a mother's love is unique.

189
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: You know what happens. Who comes running to pick you

190
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: up when you fall off your bike and a kid

191
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: and skin up your knee. Mom, Dad does the thing

192
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: I do, Get up, brush it off, You're fine. Mom

193
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: is the one who heals your little booboos. Mom runs you, Mom.

194
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: Mom loves you. Different hero and Nodo's mother handed him

195
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: a knife when he left for combat and told him

196
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: to make sure he kills himself before he gets captured.

197
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: That is samurai. Now, obviously he wasn't a samurai, but

198
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: they took so much of that era in Japan. They

199
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: were taking the teachings of the samurai. Honor was everything

200
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: to them, including how you die, which brings us to

201
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: a nice little ceremony happening for the emperor. There's a

202
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: man there. I'm not you know, I'm not gonna bore

203
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: you with names, and I'm definitely not going to pronounce

204
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: the whole name because I can't pronounce it, and I'm

205
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: not gonna make your eyes glaze ef. I'm gonna give

206
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: you three names this entire time. Okay, this is the

207
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: first one. His name is Kira. Kira is there? A

208
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: man named Oishi is there? Now? Oishi is in charge

209
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: of his own little kingdom. He has a bunch of

210
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: samburi I underneath him. Oish's you know, he's one of

211
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: those dudes. Kira is there and he is teaching Oishi

212
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: about the things he has to do, the specific things

213
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: he has to do for an upcoming ceremony. Understand, do this,

214
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: do that. Make sure you have these people stand here, Oishi.

215
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: Are you're listening, Oishi. Make sure you're this, Oishi. Make

216
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: sure you're dressed like that. Make sure they're doing this,

217
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: and ceremony is important to these people, and they're in

218
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: the Emperor's Palace, so beyond your best behavior. Hira, by

219
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: all accounts, is a huge jerk, and I mean a

220
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: huge jerk, terribly thought of. There are several different plays

221
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: and things written about him. In all of them, he's

222
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: out to be a bad human being. Nevertheless, he's calling

223
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: the shots on this day. Oishi, do this, Oish do that?

224
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 1: Talking down to Oishi extensively, which that alone is a

225
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 1: good way to get yourself killed if you're talking to

226
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: somebody like that. In Japan, however, there is no violence

227
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: allowed at all in the Emperor's Palace. And not when

228
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 1: I say not allowed, this is Japan. Jack in seventeen

229
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: oh one. You're going to die, be on your best behavior.

230
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: He report pushes it a little too far, forces Oishi

231
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: to retie his sandals. I don't understand exactly how their

232
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: footwear worked. It was half sock, half sandal. I'm not

233
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: going to pretend to be some expert on it, but

234
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: you know the drill. Hey, producer, Chris, come over here

235
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: in tie my shoes? Is there anything more disrespectful than that?

236
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: You might as I might as well spit in his

237
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: face right now. How do you think a samurai would

238
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: react to come? Tie my shoes? Now? Probably going to

239
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 1: be a problem. It certainly was a problem for Oishi,

240
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 1: who pulls out his blade and tries to cut off

241
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 1: Kira's head. Now, Kira happens to be wearing some sort

242
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: of headgear with metal on it, which saved his life,

243
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: so it deflects the blade, but it slices open Kira's forehead.

244
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: Blood is pouring out. Kira has now been assaulted by

245
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 1: a man with the blade in the castle, and Kira

246
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: has a decision to make. We don't know why. We

247
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: don't know what's in a man's heart, whether it was

248
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: from cowardice or whether he just wanted to follow the

249
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: rules of the Emperor. But Kira turns around and runs away.

250
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: Now we need to take a quick side note here

251
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: in the Samurai Code, in the way the Samurai lived,

252
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 1: whether you can say that was an assassination attempt, a

253
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: cheap shot, however, you and I would classify what Oishi

254
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: tried to do to Kira. According to the Samurai, no

255
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: matter what he tried to do, that was a formal

256
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: challenge to a fight. As a samurai, you are required

257
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: to turn around and fight, required by law. It doesn't

258
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: matter that's against what the Empress says. Again, remember the

259
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: Empress a funny thing. I don't care what the Empress says.

260
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: I don't care that it's against the law. I don't care.

261
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: They're gonna pull your fingernails out, rip your head off.

262
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: You are required by law, according to the Samurai Code,

263
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 1: to turn and fight. You do not turn and fight.

264
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: You've dishonored everybody, me, you, everybody. You've dishonored all of them.

265
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 1: That is going to come into play here in our

266
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: story big time. Now, Kira takes off palace guard, comes

267
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 1: and stops Oishi because he just broke the Emperor's law.

268
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: That's a very very very big deal. Oishi is again

269
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 1: seventeen o one Japan. We don't really do misdemeanors. Oishi

270
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: is sentenced to death, which brings us to a little

271
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: bit of a gruesome part. Cover your ears, kiddos. We

272
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 1: have to describe what exactly is seppuku. Seppuku maybe something

273
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: you've seen in the movies. I think they did it

274
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: fairly accurately in the movie The Last Samurai if I

275
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: remember right. But you need to understand this is what

276
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: it is. You will take down your robe from the

277
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: waist up so you're naked from the waist up. You

278
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:19,439
Speaker 1: will get down in a kneeling position. You will bunch

279
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: up your robe behind you because it is considered disgraceful

280
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: if you fall backwards when you die. You are supposed

281
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: to fall forward. Now it gets a little ugly. Hang on,

00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: of the worst places you can get shot in combat

308
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: is your gut because there are so many nerve endings

309
00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: there one two. It's so full of the different acids

310
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: and things your body uses to break down food that

311
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 1: not only are you slicing open cuts, sorry, this is gross.

312
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: Not only are you slicing open cuts, you're slicing open acid,

313
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: which is leaking into those cuts instantly. It's just agonizing.

314
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: Any stomach wound is supposed to be agonizing. I mean,

315
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: I had an appendect to me once, an emergency appendect

316
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: with me once. I'm sure many of you have as well.

317
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what. It was a little difficult to walk.

318
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 1: If the wife wasn't watching, I might have just growed

319
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: up in a ball and cried. It's stuff. So Sepuku,

320
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: you slip the knife into your guts, not into your heart,

321
00:24:53,119 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: into your guts, and you carve that knife across your guts. Horrors, Antoly,

322
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: you don't just slip it in there, You stab and

323
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: then slice all the way across you. Then, I'm not

324
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: making this up. I'm sorry. This is what they did.

325
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: You then turn the knife in your guts. Do you

326
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 1: know how vicious that is? That part alone, just being

327
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,479
Speaker 1: stabbed is bad enough. Stabbed and slice twice as bad,

328
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: turning it so it's no longer slicing. It's slice tearing.

329
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 1: Is it would be It would be a form of

330
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: torture in any other, any other scenario, you would do

331
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 1: that to torture somebody. But you slice it clear across

332
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: your guts. You turn it, then you cut up. Oh

333
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: and did I mention? Remember the honor thing? Remember how

334
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 1: important that is. You're supposed to do this without eat,

335
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: let alone crying out. Oh, there's no crying out. You're

336
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: not supposed to show any pain on your face, stoic. No, Look,

337
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 1: you get one of your friends, not an enemy, a

338
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: friend either, a man who served underneath you, somebody like that.

339
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: You have a friend standing there with his samurai sword

340
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 1: raised in the air. In case you do show any pain,

341
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: he will bring the sword down to cut off your

342
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 1: head so you don't make a sound and dishonor yourself.

343
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: He's doing that as a favor to you. Your buddy,

344
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: does it. Hey man, I'm gonna carve out my guts.

345
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: I know we've been close a long time. Would you

346
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: mind cutting off my head? When I said different, I

347
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: meant different. And this wasn't something that happened, you know,

348
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: I'd happened a couple times. This was a way of

349
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: life for samurai in Japan. This was a way of life,

350
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: and it could happen to you for things you couldn't

351
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: even control. You See, a samurai was there to guard

352
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: his master, guard his Donio. Let's say you're Donio's out

353
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,919
Speaker 1: one day, tells you, hey, Jerry, stay back here, go

354
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: fishing with the kids. I know you've been missing your son.

355
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: Go fishing with the kids. I'm gonna grab these couple

356
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: of dudes and I'm gonna head out. We're gonna go

357
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: walk through the woods and our sandals and stuff. And

358
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: he gets ambushed by fifty dudes and dies. You're supposed

359
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: to kill yourself. You're Donio died and you didn't protect him.

360
00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter, wasn't your fun doesn't does not matter? Big deal,

361
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: right Oishi, The man who attacked Kira and that castle

362
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: sentenced to death by seppuku, and realize this, that was

363
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: considered an honorable way to let him die. That was

364
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: not dishonor they could have dishonored him by killing him themselves.

365
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: It was honorable to let him do it. Perform the ceremony,

366
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: do it. Slices open his own guts, actually starts to

367
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: show pain, as you can imagine, So he extends his

368
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: own neck out so his friend will cut his head

369
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: off before he can make a sound. Slice head rolled

370
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: off dead. Now we have an issue. What happens to

371
00:28:52,640 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: Oishi's samurai to the men underneath him. They can kill themselves. Absolutely.

372
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: In fact, many people would say it's the honorable thing

373
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: to do. But here's the issue for them. Oh what

374
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: about our master's honor? Our master has been dishonored by

375
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: the fact that Kira turned around and ran like a

376
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: little girl instead of fighting. In order for us to

377
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: have any honor, Kira has to die. He has to die. Period. Well,

378
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: Kira is not an idiot. Kira is aware of this dynamic.

379
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: So Kira takes off. His father in law was a

380
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: hugely powerful dude, and Kira goes and hides in his

381
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: father in law's castle. I wouldn't want a bunch of

382
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: mad samurai at me either. I'm gonna go hang out

383
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: in the castle. And these samurai have to decide what

384
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: they're going to do with their life. Now, not all

385
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: samurai killed themselves when their master died, some became what

386
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: they all Ronan r o n I n great great

387
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: spy movie. Underrated spy movie by the way, if you've

388
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: never seen it. Yes it's got Robert de Niro. He's

389
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: a crazy person. But if you if you have a

390
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: thing for spy flicks at all, highly recommend the movie.

391
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: Ronan and Ronan really just meant wonderer, meaning you're a

392
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: highly trained samurai. You've chosen not to kill yourself, which

393
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: would have been the honorable thing to do. What else

394
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: are you going to do with yourself? Here? You are

395
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: this stud with the sword and everything else. So they

396
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: would either become bandits or become mercenaries. It never hurts

397
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: to have a couple of samurai doing some work for you, right,

398
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: And these samurai have to decide what they're going to do. Now.

399
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: The final name I'm going to give you, you know Kira,

400
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: you know Oishi who killed himself Isano. Maybe saying that wrong,

401
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: That's how I'm saying it. Isana. He decides we cannot

402
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: let this go, so he has a meeting in a grove.

403
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: Him and forty six other samurai have a meeting and

404
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: they decide, we need our honor back. How do we

405
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: get our honor back? We have to kill Kira. We

406
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: can't kill Kira right now. What do we do? So

407
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: they put their heads together and they figure out they're

408
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: going to do one of the most massive deep cover

409
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 1: operations ever. They're being followed, virtually all of them by

410
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: Kira's men, because Kira is clearly concerned about the Samurai

411
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: who were under Oishi. He knows they're probably a little

412
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: salty about it, and so Kira's having them all followed

413
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: to make sure they're not plotting against him. So here's

414
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: what the forty seven Ronan decide to do. They're going

415
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: to make it look like they virtually disappeared or laid

416
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: down their swords for other professions. They're going to become carpenters, merchants,

417
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: some of them, including Isano the leader. He's gonna flat

418
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: out become a drunk, a public drunk. Hey, oh god,

419
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: a nat him only side on me. Jesse Kelly, you're

420
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: listening to the Jesse Kelly Show. I love going to bed. Now, now,

421
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: let's let's be fair. I've always loved going to bed,

422
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: I've always loved taking a n app or trying to

423
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: But now because of EBB Sleep. I know I'm going

424
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: to sleep, and I will tell you this will be

425
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: This will be music to the years of people who

426
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: don't sleep. You know what it's like when you're going

427
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: to bed and you're worried you're not going to sleep.

428
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: I can't tell you what a better life it is

429
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: to be walking into my bedroom to go to sleep

430
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: at night and knowing I'm about to knock out and

431
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: I'm about to wake up and feel refreshed. That's what

432
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: EBB sleep can do for you. It's a wearable device.

433
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: You put it on your head. It applies precise, continuous

434
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: cooling to your forehead, putting you asleep faster and keeping

435
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: you asleep by calming your thoughts. Got a triebb dot

436
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: com slash jesse. That's try ebb dot com slash Jesse.

437
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: Enter the code Jesse at checkout, get yourself twenty five

438
00:33:48,160 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 1: bucks off the forty seven ronin. No, they have to

439
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: buide their time. No, they're being watched. They know Kira

440
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: is watching out for them, so they go deep cover

441
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 1: and their leader Isano, goes deep cover as the town drunk.

442
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: That part of this is fascinating now. The other parts

443
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: are really fascinating to the other guys. They go deep

444
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: cover as servants and carpenters in Kira's mansion. They work

445
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 1: their way into Kira's mansion and they begin a year

446
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: long scouting mission. Who will actually fight for Kira? Who

447
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: will not? What are the exits? How do we get in?

448
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: How do we get out? A year long spy op,

449
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: I told you this was the coolest thing ever, But

450
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 1: Iao's the one that really fascinates me. Because to make

451
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,399
Speaker 1: yourself the town drunk so they'll stop stop suspecting you,

452
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: it would be gosh, it would be It would be

453
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: like me going to w NBA games. Quit. No, But

454
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:36,479
Speaker 1: in all seriousness, remember, honor, I'm not saying samurai didn't drink.

455
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure they enjoyed Asaki every now and then. You don't.

456
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: You don't get drunk publicly as a Samurai. You would

457
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 1: never even consider it. You'd get tossed out immediately. Shoot.

458
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: By all intents and purposes, the guy should have killed

459
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: himself by now. Now not only has he not killed himself,

460
00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: now he's the town drunk. They would drink publicly and

461
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: make themselves look like degenerates. They would publicly visit the

462
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 1: houses of ill repute. One time, Isano, as the story goes,

463
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: made himself so drunk he passed out in the middle

464
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: of the road, and somebody, disgusted that he had fallen

465
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: so far, spit in his face and kicked him while

466
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 1: he was passed down, purposely disgracing himself like that, so

467
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 1: he would throw off the scent of Kira's men and

468
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: work his way into the mansion. He goes home that

469
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: day after somebody woke him up mid morning, goes home

470
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: to see his wife, who is horrified obviously does not

471
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 1: recognize her husband. What has happened to you? What happened

472
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: to the man I married and realized? Samurai honor we

473
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: didn't talk about this earlier. Very much extended to the

474
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 1: women and children. Their women were taught extensively, how to fight,

475
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: taught to be, you know, respectful, but not this is

476
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: not look. I don't want to act like women were

477
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,240
Speaker 1: were equal to the men, but they Again, throughout history,

478
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 1: we always act like because the women didn't do all

479
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: the thing the men do, they were, you know, these

480
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 1: horrible slaves, that women were not second class citizens, honored,

481
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: treasured your wife, things like that. But Samurai women were

482
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: also taught should enemy samurai ever break in, attack to

483
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: kill themselves, avoid dishonor at all costs. So that is

484
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: it's a family affair. When you do the samurai thing,

485
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 1: it's a family affair. She walks in, or he walks in.

486
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: She sees him bloodshot, spit on, drunk. She's mortified. He

487
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 1: kicks her out of the house, acts like he doesn't

488
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: want her anymore, has a big fight with her in

489
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: the house because he actually sees the shadows of Kira's

490
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 1: spies outside of his own house, has a fight with

491
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: his wife, kicks her out, training in for a younger

492
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: model type thing. The spies take off, go back and

493
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: tell Kira. Kira thinks he's safe, only he's not safe.

494
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:51,360
Speaker 1: Now now it's game on. Kira is safely back in

495
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:58,439
Speaker 1: his mansion. Security is relaxed. He calls the spies off

496
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: of Oishi's old men, who cares there are a bunch

497
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: of drunks anyway, the others have disappeared, and goes about

498
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 1: his daily life. Now. One night, these forty seven ronin

499
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: get their things together, arm up for battle, and this

500
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: may be my favorite part of the story. They go

501
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,360
Speaker 1: around in the middle of the night. The night of

502
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: the attack. They knock on all the neighbors doors. The

503
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: neighbors open up. I'm sorry, what do you want? We

504
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,919
Speaker 1: are going to go kill Kira just wanted to give

505
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: you a heads up. That commotion you're about to hear.

506
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,359
Speaker 1: That's what's going to happen. You are not in any

507
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: danger in any way. Stay inside. It's all good. None

508
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 1: of the neighbors warned Kira should tell you what kind

509
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: of reputation he had. All of them went back inside,

510
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: close the doors. Now it's game on. They knew the

511
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 1: best way in. They tried to get in the front

512
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: door and the back door at the same time. Could

513
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: not get in the front door because the guard who

514
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 1: had normally had the key didn't have the key that night.

515
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:45,280
Speaker 1: But they bust through the back I go. They bust

516
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: in the back door, and it's snowing. Isn't that a

517
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 1: scene like out of the movies? It's snowing in some

518
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:59,240
Speaker 1: Japanese castle and seventeen hundreds, early seventeen hundreds, they bust

519
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: in the back door in immediately, ten of them grappling

520
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 1: hook their way up to the roof. Why did they

521
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 1: do that? They were the ones with bows and arrows

522
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: you see. As soon as they bust in the back door,

523
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: Kira starts sending out his samurai. Only they're groggy. It's

524
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: a surprise attack, and the assassins are ready to go.

525
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 1: They start slaughtering Kira's samurai. Kira freaks as you would,

526
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: start sending messengers, Hey, father in law, come help. Only

527
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 1: the messengers never get to their destination because the ten

528
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: people who scampered up to the roof, they're filling them

529
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,879
Speaker 1: with arrows before they can get there, taking out anybody

530
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: who cries for help. They fight their way through the castle,

531
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 1: fight their way into Kira's bedroom, and they can't find him.

532
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: He's gone, but one of the men notices something. I yeah,

533
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: this is the Jesse Kelly show. This is the Jesse

534
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: Kelly Show. One of his men noticed something. One of

535
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 1: Iceano's men noticed something, and they couldn't find him. What

536
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: do you noticed? Was this? The bed's still warm. We

537
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: can't find him, but the bed is still warm. H

538
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: They find a hole cut in the wall. They crawl

539
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: through the hole. The hole eventually leads to a courtyard

540
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: where there's an outhouse. Apparently it's a big one because

541
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: there are multiple people in the outhouse. They throw open

542
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 1: the door. The few remaining samurai Kira had left, comb

543
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 1: charging out their slice to bits immediately, and there's Kira. Isano,

544
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 1: the leader of the forty seven Ronan drags Kira out,

545
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: hands Kira a knife out of respect, and they say,

546
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: kill yourself. They are allowing him to perform seppuku on

547
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: himself again honorable. He can't do it. He sits there weeping, whimpering.

548
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 1: They slice off his head. They then take the head

549
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: and they leave the castle. But before they leave the castle,

550
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: they put all the fires out in the castle, all

551
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: the candles burning and such. Why would they do such

552
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: a thing, Because they didn't want the castle to catch

553
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: fire and then for the fire to spread and burn

554
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: down the neighboring houses. They did it out of respect

555
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,560
Speaker 1: for the neighbors they told wouldn't be harmed. They took

556
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 1: the head of Kira. They took it to the grave

557
00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 1: of Isano or I'm sorry, they took it to the

558
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: grave of Oishi. They cleaned the head up a little

559
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: gruesome and placed the cleaned up head of Kira at

560
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:16,319
Speaker 1: the grave of their former master. They then went to

561
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 1: a temple gave all their money to the dudes running

562
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 1: the temple. That way they could have a proper burial.

563
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 1: And they got down on their knees and they waited

564
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 1: for the authorities to come. All forty seven of them

565
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: just sat there. The authorities showed up, didn't even attempt

566
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: to draw a blade. In fact, they sent a messenger

567
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 1: to go get the authorities. All of the men were

568
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 1: sentenced to death on February fourth, seventeen o three. All

569
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: forty seven Ronin committed zeppuku. They were all buried with

570
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 1: their master rules laws honor. These are funny things, right,

571
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: Life is complicated. Here's what you have experienced and I

572
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: have experienced for all of our lives as Americans. If

573
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 1: you're an immigrant here, there's a good chance you've experienced

574
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 1: the other half of this. But if you're an immigrant here,

575
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 1: you experienced something else. Americans, however, have experienced this. We

576
00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:00,240
Speaker 1: are a Judeo Christian country. That's how we were funded.

577
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,160
Speaker 1: I'm not saying you all are, but that's what the

578
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 1: that's what America is. So let's say you're a Jew

579
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: or a Christian in America, which look, I see the numbers.

580
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 1: My audience is huge, but the vast majority is that

581
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 1: or at least leans that way, even if you're not

582
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 1: regularly church going. You have lived your entire life, all

583
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 1: of your existence, all you've ever known is a nation

584
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: whose laws in general, whose policies, whose politicians have really

585
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,919
Speaker 1: really kind of gone along with everything you believe, even

586
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: if they don't believe what you believe. You haven't been

587
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: oppressed by it. You've never ever, as an American, had

588
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: to make a choice between following your God, following your

589
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 1: own own personal honor code, and following American law, and

590
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: you wouldn't. Our laws were based on Judeo Christian things.

591
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 1: Understand this, That is not the history of the world.

592
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: Many societies have worked that way. Many have not, And

593
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: it's time for you. As you look around you, when

594
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: you survey the madness of this world and you see

595
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: leftist control of our culture in its final form, you

596
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: are going to have to accept what I'm about to say.

597
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: And I realize it's a bitter pill to swallow. I

598
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 1: realize it can be tough to accept. And I am

599
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: not in any way trying to bring you down or

600
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 1: encourage you to do anything you don't feel is right.

601
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 1: But understand this, what you know to be right, what

602
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:17,839
Speaker 1: you know to be honorable. The way you choose to

603
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: live your life, the way you want your kids to

604
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 1: live their lives, very very very shortly is about to

605
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 1: be the opposite of what is allowed in our society.

606
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:40,960
Speaker 1: And you are going to have to make your peace now,

607
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: not before, not when the day comes. Now, you are

608
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,040
