You're thirty seven, so this is a 11 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: two years old thirty seven. God, you you have no 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: idea the knee pain you have coming toward you. I 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: dislocated a rib last week. What we're hearing my daughter 14 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: upside down by our ankles, and I tripped over a 15 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: pillow and I did everything I could not paralyze here, 16 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: So I took the took one for the team here, 17 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: and I haven't been able to breathe for about I'm 18 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: getting old. The carrying your kids upside down by the ankles, 19 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: they love that, but there reaches a point where either 20 00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: they're too heavy or you're too old. And it. Um God, 21 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm just looking at the overall landscape of things before 22 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: we get to a particular on this horrible shooting story 23 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: with the almost nine wrong track we've got going in 24 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: America right now. I just read this piece by a 25 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,759 Speaker 1: thinker that we may never have a president above at 26 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: approval rating any time in the near future just because 27 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: of the way were the way politics work right now. Um, 28 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: you're a more optimistic person than me. I tend to 29 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: uh tend to tend toward pessimism. Are we gonna come 30 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 1: out of this funking anyway? Are we? Just? Are we 31 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: at the low point of the pendulum swing and things 32 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: are gonna get better? I feel like we got more 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: bad to come. Yeah, that's wild. So I used I 34 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: used to be a proptimistic guy. My expression used to 35 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: be my class isn't half full, it's overflowing. And now 36 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm a lot more like Jack Armstrong. Right, It's like, oh, 37 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: we have a long long way to go. We're nowhere 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: near rock bottom. And if you know any addict, then 39 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, this has to be rock bottom and 40 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: then there's like years and years of it still to go. Um. Now, 41 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: so I think it's gonna get much much worse. But uh, 42 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: I think it's good because the worst things get, the 43 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: greater the need and more obvious it is that we 44 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: need to uh turn things around and have a true 45 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: revival in our country. You know that, you know the 46 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: cycle You've read right, The strong men made good times, 47 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 1: absolutely and we're in and I'm glad. I'm especially glad 48 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: to be raising kids in the beginning of the hard 49 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: times make strong And that is there, there's a guy 50 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: making lemonade out of lemons right there. Is that you 51 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: want your kids to grow up in the hard times 52 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: you learn to you know, my kids are gonna learn 53 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: something um that I think kids and your kids are 54 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: that slightly older kids didn't about. You know, we don't 55 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: go out to eat, it's too expensive, and you know, 56 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: all these different sort of things that I grew up 57 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: with that got lost there for many decades because we 58 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: were we were a land of plenty, and the credit 59 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: was forever and the economy would always be good and 60 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. I hear these people talk 61 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: about how, you know, we can't have kids now because 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: you know, the economy or the planet to global warming, 63 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: Like we can't bring kids into the world, and it's like, 64 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: what are you talking about. Slaves had kids, right, like 65 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: real slaves were like, I'm still gonna bring kids into 66 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: this world. Peasant farmers thousands of years ago, who's for 67 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: thousands of years their families were nothing but peasant farmers 68 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: to the king, and and like you're at risk of 69 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: like getting raped and pillaged by the tribe next door. 70 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: They had kids, And you live in the most luxurious 71 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: time in humanistry, and you're like, oh, gee, I don't know, 72 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: my credit scores a little low. I don't know if 73 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: give me a break, people, that's pretty ridiculous. And I 74 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: think about my parents. They didn't know how bad things were, 75 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: and I think things were like in a lot of 76 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: ways just as bad. At least the fruit of the 77 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: seeds were there. Uh So they weren't aware, they weren't 78 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: on it. They weren't as protective of our home, uh 79 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: and as they needed to be. Um And now like 80 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: there's no TV nows right here. I mean like we're 81 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: not putting you in front of the TV to to 82 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: listen to people who hate you and hate our worldview, 83 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: teach you and raise you in my stead. Uh So 84 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: we're a lot more protective in a in a good way. Interesting. 85 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: Um to the particulars of the horrifying shooting or shootings 86 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: that keep happening across America. Um, what what? What do 87 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: you think in general is going on with the the 88 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: angry young men of America? Yeah, there's a million, right 89 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: that I've I've known it down at least. My study 90 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: is identity and isolation. It was my two eye words. Uh, 91 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: let me make one point first night. I'm super glad 92 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: I can ask you this and get your thought before 93 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: I go into my rant. I'm trying to articulate and 94 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: I can't do it right. This concept that when we 95 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: hear a murder like this, this is just the tip 96 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: of the sphere of despair. It's just it's just like 97 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: the most platent. But for every murderer, there's a million 98 00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: young men who are in some spectrum of despair, and 99 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: they have different ways of of exhibiting it. Right, So 100 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: it could be like, for every murderer, there's ten young 101 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: men who commit suicide, and there's uh ten thousand who 102 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: are not drugs and almost overdosing drugs, and then there's 103 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: a hundred thousand who are drunk all the time, and 104 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: then there's a million, right Like, so, I don't know 105 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: how to articulate that better, but every time I hear 106 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: a murderer like this, I think of also the millions 107 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: of people who are in despair out of that. Can 108 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: you think a better way to put that? No, that 109 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: that's a very good point. And you know in the 110 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: the the mass shootings that don't happen get so little attention, 111 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: which has always seemed a little weird. There was a 112 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: thirteen year old and got stopped with a gun in 113 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 1: his car, And the other day um was headed somewhere 114 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: with a gun and now what what he was gonna 115 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: do you don't know, But that could have been just 116 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: you know, the random luck of we're talking about that 117 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: particular shooting. Well how about this, you know in Chicago 118 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: for this last fourth weekend, there were seventy one people 119 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: shot and ten other people murdered. Right, So, but like 120 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: so that's what I mean, I just like mourn for 121 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: so much. But then there's the person who doesn't commit suicide, 122 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: was like like almost overdoses on drugs and like that 123 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: doesn't make the news, right, But there's that level of despair, 124 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: and I think it's all caused by the same thing. Uh, 125 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: so I want to kind of talk about I want 126 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: to think about all of those as as I'm kind 127 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: of ranting here, so real quick, let me just so identity, Um, 128 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: we have no identity. So hundreds of years ago, you 129 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: at fourteenth century, you asked someone who are you? And 130 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: they'll say, well, I was born here and my parents 131 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: are farmers, and I'm gonna get married here at this 132 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: church over here, and I'm gonna get married to someone 133 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: who I met when I was like ten, because like 134 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: this is our talent, and like, and I'm gonna die 135 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be buried at that church. Like your 136 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: identity was around you and external, and then there was 137 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: the industrial Revolution and people go to the cities, and 138 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: like there was like ambitions now, like you could be 139 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: something different, you can make choices. And now, uh this 140 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,799 Speaker 1: this idea of self was much more in your head, 141 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: like what do I want out of life? Who can 142 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: I become? And then you add Freud and all these 143 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: other thinkers from the late eighteen Hunters that said that 144 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: your life, yourself is defined by your desires. So it's 145 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: not your external factors, it's it's in your head. And 146 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: you don't need to be a Christian understand that the 147 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: Christian ethic is the exact opposite. The Christian ethics says, 148 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: your desires are wicked, and your heart is deceitful above 149 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: all things, and your heart produces evil thoughts, and you 150 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: should not follow your desires. But now you have the 151 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: world today that says you are your desires. That's like 152 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: the whole transgender or even like homosexual, like I am gay, 153 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: or I am a woman in a man's body, like 154 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: my desires are everything, they are natural, they are in me, 155 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: they are good, and and the Christian ethnic is the opposite. 156 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: It's like, oh, what is in you as bad? And 157 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: you need to be different? Uh, And you can see 158 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: where problems would come from that there's exact opposite. Interesting, 159 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: we were talking about the so many of these recent 160 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: shooters or through the past several decades are in this 161 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: age gap of late teens early twenties where my parents 162 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: were married and having kids already, and you know, all 163 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: their ends were so there that you went from being 164 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: a kid, which is you know, a pretty um uh 165 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: confined lifestyle instead of needs and responsibilities. You're in school 166 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: and all that sort of stuff too married and raising kids, which, 167 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: as you know as a parent, is an all encompassing 168 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: life purpose. We now have. You know, you have this 169 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: gap of ten to twenty years where it's just kind 170 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: of float around trying to figure out who you are. 171 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure that's working out. Now. There's like 172 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: new concept of adolescents. I think young men in particular, 173 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: they ask who am I? And do I have what 174 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: it takes? And I think young men are given no 175 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: direction and no purpose, and they're given no opportunity to 176 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: even prove to themselves that they have what it takes. 177 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: And I go in these rants all the time about 178 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: rights of passage. We have no rights of passage for 179 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: young men in our country. I think the only right 180 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: of passage we have are like things by accident, like 181 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: you get your driver's license, or like that's stupid, or 182 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: you have sex for the first times, like no, that's 183 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: not it, Like no, like intentional purpose. Other men directed 184 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: right of passage into manhood, and we wonder why so 185 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 1: many men are floundering and unmoored and lost. Yeah, and 186 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: moored is a term I used a lot yesterday. So 187 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: we got this text responding to something I said last 188 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: hour I was actually talking about. I don't know how 189 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 1: to refer to these people like scumbag murderer. I'm fine 190 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: with unless it turns out there completely insane and then 191 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know how much I'd blame them. 192 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: But anyway, we got this text, Jack, I agree with 193 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: you on most topics that are discussed on the show. 194 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: Parents of these kind of scumbag murders is where we 195 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: part ways. I'm a teacher almost twenty years now, and 196 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: I've seen hundreds of parenting styles. Parents are absolutely responsible 197 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: for their kids turning out to be scumbag shooters. These 198 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: kids of young adults, mass shooters or gang related never 199 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: come from households where there are two emotionally stable, involved parents. 200 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: They come from households where there are self absorbed, uninvolved, 201 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: uninterested parents of broken homes or broken homes. There is 202 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: a lot of truth to that. Yeah, I uh, you'll 203 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: get kicked out of the story. Charlie Sheen, Remember Charlie Sheen, 204 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: Crazy down whatever and his daughters, eighteen year old daughters 205 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: now a porn star. She has her own fans, and 206 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: Charlie Sheen's like, hey, uh, this isn't my fault. Uh, 207 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: this didn't happen under my roof. She's living with her mother, 208 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: This didn't happen under my roof. And I'm like, yeah, 209 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: I know, that's the problem. You didn't provide a roof. 210 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: You weren't there. You were sleeping around with porn stars 211 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: when she was seven. Like his big breakdown was was 212 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: when she was about seven, like the exact age. She 213 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: needed a man and a roof, and he didn't provide it. 214 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: So that's a good example. Like his daughter didn't go 215 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: on to murder people, right, So she doesn't really make 216 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: the new I mean she does because she's famous, right, 217 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: but but like someone who does these destructive behaviors out 218 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: of despair like she is doing wouldn't normally make the news. 219 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: But that's the like the amount of despair there is 220 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: out there, even if it doesn't make the news. And 221 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: it's all because of what that listener just said. It's 222 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: just just broken homes and just lost Now should we 223 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: only have a couple of minutes and then I gotta 224 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: let you go?

Even 226 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: he gets like like there's no way. Is Kamala Harris 227 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: going to be the least likable person ever. But like, no, 228 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm almost thinking like two like after November. So I 229 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 1: miss understood the question.
