16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: they just want what's best for their families, but because

17
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: of the radical leftist overtaking or culture and the cowardly

18
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,680

Speaker 1: set when I was guest co hosting on Fox and friends,

40
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: and you were so kind and so humble and just

41
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: exceptionally kind. That was something that really stood out to

42
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,280

Speaker 1: good for me too, me too. It's much it's much

45
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: better than the alternative, right, you've bet, you've bet. Listen,

46
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: it's nice to be on the Fox Channel when I am,

47
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: and I pay attention to it, and I've watched your

48
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, work over the years now a couple of years,

49
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: and it's just terrific. So it's always nice to see

50
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: your face and your presence and the various shows that

51
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: you do. Well. Thank you, sir. That's a huge honor

52
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: and huge compliment coming from you. So I really appreciate it,

53
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: you know. And Sir, I think sometimes, I mean, look,

54
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: you're a huge Hollywood star. You have had an incredibly

55
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: long career, an incredibly successful career, and so I think

56
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: sometimes when someone has been out in the public so long,

57
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: they kind of forget, you know, who is John Boyett? Like,

58
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: what was your what was your childhood like growing up?

59
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: Tell us a little bit about your upbringing. I will.

60
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: I was just going to say, you know, life is

61
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: very short. People say that all the time to the

62
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: little kids, and then little kids just thinking, oh my god,

63
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: it's going to be so long before I get to

64
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: be eighteen or so. It wants so much to advance

65
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: and grow and all of that, and life is very short,

66
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: and a career is very short. And at one point

67
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: somebody asked me, some young lady asked me who was

68
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: Carrie Grant? And I couldn't believe that I was listening

69
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: to this, because in my lifetime he was, you know,

70
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: such a splendid part of our lives, watching his great movies.

71
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: And I couldn't believe that the kids didn't know him,

72
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: you know. And I'm like that. Now I'm getting older,

73
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: and so the new ones are coming forth and and

74
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: it's it's just interesting to look back on different things. Anyway,

75
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: I've forgotten the question, what was your childhood like? Growing up?

76
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: You know, what, what were your parents like? Yeah, so

77
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: what my child I grew up in Yonkers Youngers in

78
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: New York, and I had two brothers. We were we

79
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: were a threesome. We were only a year apart, and

80
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: I was in the middle. And from the earliest time

81
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: we you know, we were all a rampnctious, very active

82
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: three kids and my and each one of us went

83
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: our different ways. My my younger brother became enamored of

84
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: music and uh and went on to be a singer

85
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: songwriter and he wrote A Wild Thing, an Angel of

86
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: the mo many many great hits and he's still writing

87
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: today and he's a wonderful He's in the you know,

88
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,119
Speaker 1: Songwriters Hall of Fame and stuff. And my older brother,

89
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 1: Barry was always when he was a young fellow, was

90
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: out with his uncle who would come back from the service.

91
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: This was in the forties, and he would go on

92
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: camping trips and stuff. And he was very interested in

93
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: nature and he would take photographsive of the natural world

94
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: and different animals and stuff. And he became a geologist

95
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: and a well known volcanologist, a volcano expert. And he's

96
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: been faded and put into entered a major society in

97
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: the scientific society, very lead society and all of that.

98
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 1: You know. So the kid we each of us in

99
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: our childhood gave evidence of what we wanted to be,

100
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: and we were given encouragement as kids to follow, you know,

101
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: whatever wherever our loves took us. And I as a

102
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: kid was very playful. I was kind of the glue

103
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: in the family in a certain sense for the children,

104
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: because I kind of negotiated between my two brothers, who

105
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: both are fierce energies, and we had a lot of fun.

106
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: And I was playful, and I would make up games

107
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: to play and I would When television came along the fifties,

108
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: I started watching a Saturday night show, an hour and

109
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: a half show called The Show of Shows, Your Show

110
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: of Shows, and it starred Sid Caesar and Emagene Coca

111
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: and Carl Reiner and Howard Mars, those four and it

112
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: was written This show was very popular at that time,

113
00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: and it was written by mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Neil Simon.

114
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: All of the great comedy writers were part of that show.

115
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: And so I had a very I didn't know it

116
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: at the time, but I was being influenced by really

117
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: brilliant people in the entertainment world. And I used to

118
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: imitate this fellow, said Caesar a lot from for the

119
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: entertainment of my classmates. And and that became As I

120
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: look back, I said, wait a minute, I think I

121
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: probably got more out of that, and I did you know,

122
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: all the other years, I certainly learned from many many

123
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: people on the way up, and that initial signature was

124
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: stayed with me. So because he was a character comedy actor, right,

125
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: and I would and I became a character actor. I

126
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: was interested in different kinds of characters and different accents

127
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: and different behaviors and that examination into those those areas

128
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: of acting as to oppose to leading the leading man

129
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: kind of actor who I have great appreciation for guys

130
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: who are pretty much the same in every film and

131
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: just know how to how to do that kind of

132
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: work and are very charismatic. And I just I went

133
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: off into this other world of character acting and was

134
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: influenced by many people growing into it, you know, and

135
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: working with great people Dustin hofton this, you know. And

136
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: so how did you get into it? Because you know,

137
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: acting in Hollywood's obviously an incredibly hard career to sort

138
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: of get your foot in the door. How did you

139
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: do it? Well, it was a long process for me.

140
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: No one in my family had any connection to to

141
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: you know, to zoo acting or you know, entertainment. My

142
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: band was a golf professional and he was and I

143
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: have to say, just take a word about my father

144
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: was a remarkable He was a loved golf. He was

145
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: a great golf effect. So he had a terrible accident

146
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: when he's eighteen years old, and he wasn't able to

147
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: pursue It created a s the accident that was happening

148
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: coming from a golf tournament in Chicago, and the result

149
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: of the injury that he had created calcium deposits and

150
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: a spine and he wasn't able to be as flexible

151
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: and he won't able to play play golf on the tour.

152
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: So he lost the great love of his life. Really,

153
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: but he became a great teacher of golf, and we

154
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: as his children, gained a father at home. He wasn't

155
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: away in the golf tournaments, and with the lures of

156
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: all of that, he was a great father. And he

157
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: was a great storyteller. And I don't know to this

158
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 1: day how he became so such a good storyteller because

159
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: he came from immigrant parents as grand as his father

160
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 1: couldn't speak very good English, never did pick up a

161
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: language too well, but was really really charming and funny,

162
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: a good fellow. But my dad with the help I

163
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: think of the members of the club. It was a

164
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 1: German Jewish country club that people couldn't get into other

165
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: country clubs because they were Jewish, so they built their

166
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 1: own club and my dad was the beneficiary of that

167
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: and our family and and I think he probably learned

168
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: storytelling from those members as he was caddying when he

169
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: was a very young boy. And the stories he told

170
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: us at bedtime for several years in our growing up

171
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: were very key to us growing properly and to our

172
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: enjoyment of things and insights into things, because he would

173
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: always put little messages into the stories and stuff. And

174
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: whenever you get into that phase of it, he well,

175
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, boys, you've got to you know, know that

176
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: you won't be able to run as fast all ways,

177
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: and you will be able to and and so you

178
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 1: have to, we'd say, tell the story. To get back

179
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: to the story, get back to the story. We were

180
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: very impatient, we did. Why did they tell us? But

181
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: the messages hit home, I think, and h and because

182
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: of that man, you know a lot, a lot. I

183
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: have to give my my father and mother great credit

184
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: for whatever good I have in my personality today. But anyway,

185
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: so we grew up in that, in that kind of

186
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: an atmosphere. When I was young, and I got caught

187
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: as I say, with this imitating and being playful and

188
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: all of that stuff, and I never thought I would

189
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: go into it and never you know, it was a

190
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 1: very interesting journey that I took. But at the end

191
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: of my college career, my junior year of college, right

192
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: before I went into my senior year of college, and

193
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: I was at college, a Catholic university in Washington, DC,

194
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: which had a very good drama department, but I was

195
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: in the art department because I thought I could get

196
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: more attention to other things. I was very active in

197
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: the let's say, the politics, but also just a social

198
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 1: life of the university. And that was very good training

199
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 1: for me. I must say. I enjoyed that and I

200
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 1: grew from it. But I kept asking people what I

201
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: should do? What do you think I should do? You know,

202
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: who should I be? A lawyer? Should I? And I

203
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: thought about, you know, maybe a politician, maybe a teacher, teacher,

204
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: I'd be a good teacher, things like that. And then

205
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: I was walking around campus with a book and I

206
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,439
Speaker 1: looked out at one point I saw this book and

207
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:50,719
Speaker 1: I said, what am I doing with this book? And

208
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: of course I knew what I was doing. The book,

209
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: but it was a book of criticisms of stage work

210
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: in the Golden Age of the British theme with Laurence

211
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: Olivier and Ralph Richardson and John Guilden those falls. And

212
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: it was by Kenneth Tynan, the leading critic at that time,

213
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: and he was very gave very elaborate descriptions of the

214
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: different performances in their effects. And I underlined and made

215
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: notes on all of Laurence Olivier's performances. The rest of

216
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 1: it I wasn't so interested in, but in his performances,

217
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: I saw something about how he approached the character that

218
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: he was playing, and how his choices in building a

219
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: character made a difference in the impact of the play.

220
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 1: I somehow understood that maybe I got it from my

221
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: my father and the way he told stories, because I

222
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: ingested all of that understanding, and then maybe just there

223
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: was a talent there for me. I saw something. I

224
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: saw how you affect a story, so you so you

225
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: grabbed the attention of the people, and you moved them,

226
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: this kind of thing, and and once and I looked

227
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: at that, and I said, I actually, I think I

228
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: even verbally said as out loud, I was a load

229
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: on campus looking at this book, and I said, I

230
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: know what I want to do. I want to be him.

231
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: And I pointed to, you know, something of Olivier's you know,

232
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: so that's and once I that moment, that epiphany that

233
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: happened right there, that was it. I knew I was

234
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: going to graduate after this senior year, and I was

235
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: going to go on to New York and I was

236
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: going to study. And I knew in my mind at

237
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: that time these are the things that I remember very visit,

238
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, I said, and I know I'm not going

239
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: to give up. I'm going to do it. I'm going

240
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: to be a success. In other words, I knew it

241
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: was going to be challenging. I knew I was going

242
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: to go up to death, but I knew I would.

243
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: I know it's stick with it, and I knew it, okay,

244
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: but nobody else did. Certainly your parents don't when you're

245
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: going to towards such a shaky career, you know, you

246
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: don't know if your child is going to be able

247
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: to make a living. Sir, just one moment, we have

248
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: to take a quick break, and then we'll get right

249
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: back to it. The motion that police or racists who

250
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: kill black Americans disproportionately is a lie, a mirage, and

251
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: optical illusion not supported by any of the facts. It's

252
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: a false narrative. This week on The Truth with Lisa Booth,

253
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: I cut through the noise to get to the truth

254
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: about race and policing in America. With Heather MacDonald, a

255
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: fellow at the Manhattan Institute and the author of the

256
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: New York Times bestseller The War on Cops, we get

257
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: to the bottom of this anti police narrative and the

258
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: impact it is having on our country. You don't want

259
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: to miss this episode, and make sure you listen to

260
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: the Truth with Lisa Booth every Wednesday on the iHeart

261
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: Radio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcasts.

262
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: You know, you hear about the Hollywood industry. I mean

263
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: you're out at castings. It's really it's hard to get

264
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: in the door. And you read stories about people getting

265
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: your start. But that's exactly well, I have family, I

266
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: have family, I have family in the industry, but I've

267
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: also you know, you like you read about different people,

268
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: stories like Sylvester Stallone stories always stood out to me

269
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: as well, and sort of his hustle and getting you know,

270
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: Rocky started. But how did you persevere, Like what what

271
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: what was that just trying to get your foot your

272
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: feet in the door. What was that like for you

273
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: of just trying to get that that first gig, that

274
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: that that first opportunity, that first ability to show what

275
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: you had to offer? What was that like for you? Well,

276
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: you don't you when you start out, you certainly don't

277
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: have a lot of experience to tell you who you

278
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: are and what you do do you see, so you

279
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: have to gain some experience, and you have to and

280
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: and I looked for a teacher right away in New York,

281
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: got a little apartment in New York with two other guys.

282
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: Thankfully then when almost never there, so I had the

283
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: place to myself. It was a little air apartment and

284
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: there was a great Greek restaurant cafeteria downstairs, which was

285
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:13,959
Speaker 1: very reasonable and kept me alive. But I tried to go.

286
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: I went to classes, I talked to actors. I took

287
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: an opportunity to try out for everything, all of that stuff. Right.

288
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: Didn't have much success in the beginning and long periods

289
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: of drought. And if I finally got I got an

290
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 1: acting coach and he wasn't good. I turned out to

291
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: be very bad. I wasn't I wasn't learning anything. I

292
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: was actually going backward. And then finally I got a

293
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: teacher who was one of the one of the great

294
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: teachers at that time, Sanford Meisner. Sanford Meisner and Stella

295
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: Adler and Lee Strassburg were the three great teachers at

296
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: that time that that you were fortunate enough to you

297
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: were fortunate if you had any contact with And so

298
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: I learned a basic, kind of basic for the craft.

299
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: And of course I had I had something in me

300
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: that was an I knew about entertainment. I could entertain people.

301
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: I did have abilities that I knew, but how they

302
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: applied in the real world I didn't know. So so

303
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: I worked very hard. And then when I got through that,

304
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: and I had little jobs too. Always I got a

305
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: little job, and I got a little job on Broadway

306
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: actually with the very early on, playing the telegraph boy

307
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: in Sound of Music, Ralph the fellow who turns the

308
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 1: family in and the and anyway. So I had some success.

309
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: I knew that I knew I had something, and that

310
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: kept me going. Uh. And then finally, after I finished

311
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: a couple of years with mister Meisner, I was looking

312
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: to a job that would show off these talents that

313
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 1: I had, and I finally got a View from the Bridge,

314
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: which is an Arthur Miller play. It was the first

315
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: production of the Long, the long version of that play,

316
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: and as a very great play, I have to say, uh.

317
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: And I was and I got that role, and I

318
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: worked with Robert Duval, Bobby Duval, and it just happened

319
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 1: that Bobby Duvall was good friends with Dustin Hoffman and

320
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: was asked and Dusty was also connected to this director

321
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: of gross part and he showed up to help out

322
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: with the directing of the piece. So I met Dustin Hoffman,

323
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: you know that in that time, and he saw me

324
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: do some very good work. That was the first time

325
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: that I realized that I had achieved something in the

326
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: class work and that I had found some ground, you know.

327
00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:00,239
Speaker 1: And it was like it was like a base to

328
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 1: fly from in a way. I experienced a lot of

329
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: a lot of things in that particular time period where

330
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: I learned about myself. I was very entertaining in the character,

331
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: I think, and I was very moving and powerful as well.

332
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: So it was a great role and a role that

333
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: was fit to me, and I made a mark and

334
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 1: therefore I had you know, a step up. Now people

335
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 1: were going to be looking at me, and that's what happened.

336
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: And You've been in a ton of successful films, you know,

337
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 1: starting with you know, Midnight Cowboy, that was a big

338
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: break for you, to even more recently winning a Golden

339
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: Globe for the television series Ray Donovan. Why do you

340
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 1: think you've been able to have such a long and

341
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: sustained career when so many haven't been able to do that.

342
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: First of all, a good fortune, I think, you know,

343
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: I was lucky. But also there's a little bit of

344
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: a mystery to me, and it's a spiritual aspect. I

345
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: was in bad behavior. As I look back, and things

346
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: happened to me where I changed my perspective on things

347
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: and I was lifted from that. I was able to

348
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: get it, get away from that, and I became very connected.

349
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: Although I grew up a Catholic, and when I hit

350
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: in New York, I kind of lost that, you know,

351
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: I kind of left that behind and got in trouble

352
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,719
Speaker 1: with it, you know, got away from this understanding of

353
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: God and the and the rules of life and stuff,

354
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: and even the examples of my parents, who were admirable people.

355
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: I lost my way a little bit, and then I

356
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: came back around and because of that, I turned into,

357
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: you know, a person who was devoted to God and

358
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: did a lot of meditation and I was able to

359
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: change and in that change many things has happened. That

360
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: it was quite I have some stories to tell about

361
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: the mysteries of that, but I would I would say

362
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: that's the mark that kept me going, uh, you know,

363
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: giving me a lift when I was very down. I

364
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: said prayers, and the prayers were answered in many ways.

365
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: So so I'd say, there's a spiritual aspect and you

366
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 1: talk about God a lot. And you know, right now

367
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 1: in the country, we're saying a decline in religious affiliation

368
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: over the past few years. Do you think that's why

369
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: we're having so many problems as a country right now? Well,

370
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: I would say yes. I would say yes. I would

371
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: say we've lost our moorings. You know, the stuff that

372
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 1: they're feeding our children right now is very disturbing. Uh.

373
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: You know, there used to be Remember there's a book

374
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: everything that you need to know you were learned in kindergarten,

375
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: you know, and that was a good book because it

376
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: showed you how much morality and real basics for life

377
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: we're taught in kindergarten the taking responsibility for yourself and

378
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: all sorts of things, and we've gotten and now the

379
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: children are being given poison from all these woke teachings

380
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 1: have to say. And we've let our guard slip and

381
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: we have to recapture that ground otherwise we're we're doomed society.

382
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: And I feel that we're starting to understand that too.

383
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 1: And that's why I you know, the last video that

384
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: I that I released was very strong, and I have

385
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: helped to get these videos done, you know, to do

386
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: these videos. But um, I perhaps i'd read it to

387
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: you and we can talk about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

388
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,120
Speaker 1: if you you know what what concerns you right now

389
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: the most in taking a look at the country? You

390
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 1: know you're you're talking about. I watched the videos that

391
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: you do. I know that you you tweat them out

392
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: as well, sir, and you're a very vocal conservative. What

393
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: taking a look at where we are right now as

394
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: a nation? What concerns you the most? What concerns me

395
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: the most is that we've we've lost our moorings and

396
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: we're being overtaken by really it's it's a it's an

397
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: evil that is trying to overtake this country and all

398
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: the greatness of this country. Why is it that people

399
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: want to come to this country, Why is it that

400
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: people are breaking down, you know, our boarders to get

401
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: to us, And why is it that the people who

402
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: are most concerned about us are people from who have

403
00:24:53,560 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: lived under this this tyranny of SOCIALI communism, you know,

404
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 1: across the world, people from Poland, people from Russia, people

405
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: from Cuba. We're turning into a venezuela. And they see it.

406
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: They can see it clearly because it happened to them.

407
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: They went through all of this, this horror and sadness

408
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 1: and lost their countries. And they see the same thing

409
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: happened to the United States, and this was the place

410
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: that they came to because they needed to say, to

411
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: get to a safe shore, they needed to get to freedom,

412
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: they needed to get the opportunity. And now they see

413
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: that this country too is falling under under this evil influence.

414
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: And so that's that's my concern at this time. I

415
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: think we all have to be very, very concerned, and

416
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: therefore I do everything I can because I've gone through

417
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: a lot of this myself from the sixties, and I

418
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: see how it's happened. And I know that the people

419
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: must be courageous and learned and fight this battle for

420
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: our future generations. We have to we have to stand

421
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: up here. This is it at such an interesting point,

422
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: mister hold that thought right there. We have to take

423
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: a break. The motion at police or racists who kill

424
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: Black Americans disproportionately is a lie, a mirage, and optical illusion,

425
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: not supported by any of the facts. It's a false narrative.

426
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: This week on The Truth with Lisa Booth, I cut

427
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: through the noise to get to the truth about race

428
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 1: and policing in America. With Heather MacDonald, a fellow at

429
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 1: the Manhattan Institute and the author of the New York

430
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: Times bestseller The War on Cops, we get to the

431
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: bottom of this anti police narrative and the impact is

432
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: having on our country. You don't want to miss this episode,

433
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: and make sure you listen to the Truth with Lisa

434
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 1: Booth every Wednesday on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

435
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcasts. I just I have

436
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: a fundamental respect for people that go their own way.

437
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,719
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's so easy to follow the crowd,

438
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: It's so easy to follow a group. It's much harder

439
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: to stand alone in your convictions and in your strength

440
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: and what you believe, and that is what you do.

441
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: You're exceptionally brave, particularly in an industry that doesn't really

442
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 1: care for, you know, different diversity and ideology. How has

443
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: it been like for you as a conservative in an

444
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: industry that typically seems to all be on one side

445
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: of the aisle? Has that been hard? It's going to

446
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: be difficult. It's costing your work, of course, because people

447
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: will are afraid to the people who would would have

448
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: common sense are afraid to be exposed for having common sense.

449
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: Can you imagine what's going on? Yeah, it's really nice.

450
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: So I'm kind of a I'm a person that everyone

451
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: thank God that I've had some success in my life

452
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: so that I can people know that when they hire me,

453
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to give a good representation of the work

454
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: and and maybe make their peace more successful and uh,

455
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: all of that. But people are are afraid to be

456
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: exposed at this time for questioning this. Uh this, I

457
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: think this this this bad behavior that's going on all

458
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: over the places. But uh, it's it's interesting. It's a battle.

459
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: It's a battle, and and it's in this industry. You see.

460
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: Initially the KGB targeted the United States and and crusehev said,

461
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: you know, we won't will over fum you, but we

462
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: won't do it with guns. You know, We'll just you'll

463
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: vote vote us into office. That's what he said, you know,

464
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: And that's pretty much what's happened. I mean, they know

465
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: what they're doing. They targeted, They targeted the film industry

466
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: because of its influence, They targeted schools, and because we

467
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: are in a country of freedom, freedom of speech, they

468
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: used it for there as a tool for themselves. They

469
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: took advantage of it, and we were We didn't see

470
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 1: it coming. So there's an awful lot to be said

471
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: about this, of course. And they're better, they're smarter people

472
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: than I do well, And I work in the media, sir,

473
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: and you know, I see you. Unfortunately, I work for

474
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: a network that really tries to get both sides of

475
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 1: the aisle. When you look at other networks that do not,

476
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: like CNN and MSNBC, But I see how you know

477
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 1: a lot of the mainstream media really pushes the left propaganda.

478
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: What role do you think Hollywood plays and that as well.

479
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: I think it's a very big surprise that the media

480
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: can be so so captured, so overtaken. How could this be?

481
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: Don't journalists have any sense of pride even you know,

482
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: don't they? But you know they're they're low in the

483
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: totem poles. So they keep their mouth shut and they

484
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: just do their jobs. You see, they repeat the party line.

485
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,560
Speaker 1: This is just like rush. I mean, this is just

486
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: like Provada. There's no difference. They read the New York Times.

487
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: You're getting phony stuff. So so what does what does

488
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: the guy do? Who he wants to feed his family

489
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: and he needs to keep his job. It's those pressures

490
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: that they keep it going. I think. So, who's going

491
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: to stop this? Well, there are many brave people that

492
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: are stepping up and gave brave teachers who are in

493
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: are the industry, entertainment magistry, in the you know, in

494
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: the news industry that are stepping up and giving us

495
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: a direction. So we have to find those people and

496
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: stick with them and support them. What was it about conservatism?

497
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: You know, when did you become a conservative and what

498
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: convinced you? You talked about your journey with religion. What

499
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: was your journey alike in politics? My journey in politics

500
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: was that I was susceptible to being in the sixties.

501
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: I was just learning to going to school to learn

502
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: to act, wanting to be one of those actors that

503
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: works all the time, you know, needing to have success

504
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: and trying to find roles, trying to find all of

505
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: this stuff. And I was available to all of the

506
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: politics of that time, which was anarchisms took place in

507
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: the streets of the United States. You know, there was

508
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: a lot of things going on, and I when I

509
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: look back, I said, well, what happened was really from

510
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: the trauma of losing John Kennedy. I was a big

511
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: supporter of Kenny. I mean it was I was infatuated

512
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: with Kennedy. He was very it seemed like the answer

513
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: to many things. He was very idealistic, and he had

514
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: this nice way about him and I believed in it.

515
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: And then and the country did too. And suddenly he

516
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: was murdered, and I think everyone was. I think everyone

517
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: was hurt by that. When we talked about trauma, I

518
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: think everybody knew where they were when they heard that news.

519
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: I think the fact is that nobody really could figure

520
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: out what exactly happened to this day. And after that

521
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: things became we had no leadership from the top. That's

522
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: what I felt, not leadership we believed in. And that's

523
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 1: my personal Everyone knows where they were at the time

524
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: they heard that news, and so I would say that

525
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: was a big blow and in moved all of this leftism,

526
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: some from the people in the streets who were just

527
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: advocating free love and this and you know, all that stuff.

528
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: But that was also planted by by very clever people

529
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: from the left, which means the communists in the Russian KGB,

530
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: the German group, the Frankfurt School came in. They were

531
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: on the left, and so all of these distortions that

532
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: took place were manipulated and that was the beginning. Now,

533
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: since that time, we had one break where we had

534
00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 1: President Reagan and were more clear and different and better,

535
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: but it didn't last very long, and we took our

536
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: eye especially when the Soviet Union collapsed. We felt we

537
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: had no you know, no enemies anymore, and we took

538
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: our eye off the ball. And that's when they moved in.

539
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: That's when the forces that they had started in the

540
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: sixties moved into our schools, our education. So they had

541
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: been moving into the education system and took over our

542
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: industry and took over the media. So and we can

543
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: you can chart that out and see the heroes and

544
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,439
Speaker 1: villains in that process. But that's that's where we are now.

545
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: We're really facing a takeover. Well, there's just such censorship.

546
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you talked about tyranny earlier. I mean, we

547
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: look at the fact that the president, the former president

548
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: of the United States was banned from social media. We

549
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 1: had big tech actively taking a role in silent seeing

550
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: or suppressing information. I mean even today, if you try

551
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: questioning the twenty twenty election, despite the fact that Democrats

552
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: whined about the twenty sixteen election for years, if you

553
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 1: try questioning an election where we had an unprecedented amount

554
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 1: of mail in ballots in the middle of a pandemic,

555
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: you know, you get needed as some sort of conspiracy theorist.

556
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: Why do you think that is? Why? Why can't we

557
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: question the results of the twenty twenty election. Well, this

558
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: has been Launching Donald Trump has been very interesting because

559
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: Donald who is Donald Trump, Donald Trump as a fellow

560
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:37,360
Speaker 1: who is very very successful, has many gifts, obvious gifts

561
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: prior to becoming president, right, certainly got to work with

562
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: many different aspects of our society. To put up the

563
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 1: beautiful buildings that he has, you know, gotten accomplished. It's

564
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 1: changed the skyline of of you know, New York City

565
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: and the world really many many different buildings across the world.

566
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: And he's used to working with all sorts of different things,

567
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 1: you know, in order to get permissions, you have to

568
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: work with the different city councils and all sorts of stuff,

569
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: and and architects and building materials, you have to budget stuff.

570
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:23,359
Speaker 1: And he is a tremendous and arsenal of talents that

571
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: he's that he's been created, you know, calling over the years.

572
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,479
Speaker 1: And and then he becomes president of United States. Now

573
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 1: he becomes president of United States, and people didn't know

574
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: where he was going to go, if you remember, they

575
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 1: didn't know whether he was going to be conservative or

576
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: whether it was too much on the left, because he'd

577
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: been you know, he's been friends with Hillary Clinton, you know,

578
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 1: put money into this and that, and then all of

579
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 1: a sudden he starts. But but somebody knew because before

580
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 1: he was, before he was actually sworn in, they said

581
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: they're going to impeach him, didn't they The left and

582
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party knew he was dangerous to them. Because

583
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: why why he hadn't done anything yet. Part of it

584
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: was because he didn't have any respect for the swamp,

585
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, the way things go. He wasn't You couldn't

586
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 1: corrupt him, you couldn't buy him. Oh wow, that's that stuff,

587
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: you see. But did how did they see the power

588
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: that he was And it's very interesting they were. They

589
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: were went after him with everything they had right from

590
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: the beginning. And he was very friendly to many of

591
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: these people who were leadership in the Democrat Party. So

592
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: something's way off. See, they knew somehow that he was

593
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: going to be dangerous to them, and in fact he

594
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: was because he's a because he's a good, god fearing

595
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 1: man who has a great talent for leadership. And he

596
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 1: was going to go in and he said, I'm going

597
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: to clean this up a little bit. And he did

598
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 1: everything he said he did. And perhaps it was the

599
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: promises he made as he grew towards the election that

600
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: he said he was going to do this, you know,

601
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 1: close for the war at the border, take you know,

602
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: take on the challenge of China, do all redo the trade,

603
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: all of these things that he said he was going

604
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 1: to do. He actually did the most amazing thing, because

605
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: no one has ever done so much in such a

606
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: short period of time. And and when you think that

607
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 1: he was attacked every day that he was in office,

608
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,280
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. But what do you think happened? Because you've

609
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: said before, you know, you're disgusted with the why that

610
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: Biden has been chosen as if we all don't know

611
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 1: the truth. What do you think the truth is about

612
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election? Oh well, I mean I think

613
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: you said it. I mean, there's so much evidence that

614
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 1: it was it was a stolen election. I take this

615
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: back to the moment when Soros realized that Trump had

616
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: been elected by the American people, and he said, this

617
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 1: is a disaster, and he meant it. And Soros is

618
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 1: a very interesting character, and he represents all of the

619
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 1: stuff that's going on. He's anti Trump in every way

620
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: and he was not. And he uses all his billions

621
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: to infiltrate into the schools with all his foundations and

622
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: all is organizations all misnomer by the way, because they

623
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: all represent themselves on being patriotic and they're not like

624
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: like looking at the Constitution. And then it really is

625
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 1: an attack on the Constitution. And that's given to the

626
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: you know kids in colleges. I mean, he's really a

627
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: supporter of everything at the American So so anyway that

628
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: when he said that, it was like saying, okay, threw

629
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: down the ground, but he's going he's never going to

630
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 1: let this happen again. And it was he and the

631
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: Democrat leadership and all of the people on the left

632
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: who gathered together to stop this man and to make

633
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 1: sure that this next election would not repeat itself. And

634
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: of course they had a big problem because Donald Trump

635
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: gave us the best economy we've ever had, and he

636
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,399
Speaker 1: was doing all all sorts of figures you know that

637
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: we dreamed would be accomplished that needed so badly to

638
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: be done. We were seeing, you know, the country go

639
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 1: down hill, and all of a sudden, this man comes

640
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: up and has insights and almost every area of the

641
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: problem and corrects it as he goes. Well, some quite

642
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: something and they were going to but they were going

643
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,399
Speaker 1: to bring him down. So they gathered every force they

644
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 1: could and tried every deceitful, you know method to attack

645
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: him and slander him, and they still couldn't do it

646
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 1: until COVID And so you have to question that too.

647
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 1: But then coming down to the election. They weren't going

648
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: to do they weren't going to let this happen. They

649
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: just weren't happen. So that you get all of these

650
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: things about, you know, we just weakening all the ability

651
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: for people to make a proper vote and be properly counted.

652
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: And that's what they did all across the country. And

653
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: they used every method, and they encouraged every kind of

654
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 1: bad behavior and and I and those blackouts, you know,

655
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 1: those several hour blackouts in the main states unbelievable and

656
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 1: turned the tide. So yeah, I think I think we

657
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 1: have to pay very close attention to it and hopefully,

658
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,839
Speaker 1: you know, the truth will emerge and we'll catch these

659
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: people who are This is real, This is real, criminal

660
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 1: behavior of the highest order. Do you think President Trump

661
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: should run again or who do you think? Who are

662
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: you looking at as the future of the Republican Party? Well,

663
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:52,240
Speaker 1: I think we have many great people. Actually we should

664
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 1: take heart that we have many great people in the

665
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 1: Republican Party who have stepped out, who have gone through this.

666
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: You know, standing standing tall, I can name you know,

667
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: dozens and that and that's a that's good. But right

668
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 1: now I'm I'm watching President Trump to see what he's

669
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: going to do. I think I think we have to

670
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:24,879
Speaker 1: just wait and see. There obviously are other people who

671
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: can run and be successful, and I think the country

672
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 1: will show itself next November in a very strong way.

673
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: But I'm watching President Trump. He still has enormous influence.

674
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: People love this man for what he has done and

675
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: for that way he handles himself. How much you know

676
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: you mentioned the next election, which I think is probably

677
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: one of the most consequential elections we've ever had in

678
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 1: American history. Personally, I think it's going to determine if

679
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: we become, you know, a communist, authoritarian type nation or

680
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,240
Speaker 1: a nation that is still a republic that still believes

681
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: believes in the foundings of our country. How much of

682
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 1: a referendum do you think it'll be on the Biden administration. Well,

683
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: of course it's going to be, But then again, it's

684
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: going to be You're going to look to the polls

685
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,919
Speaker 1: to see if you have the ability. And the Biden

686
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: administration is changing everything. They're doing a lot of damage

687
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,240
Speaker 1: on a daily basis, and they're trying to The Democrat

688
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: Party is trying to overthrow all of the constitutional strengths

689
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: of our country. Can I just read. Let me read

690
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 1: because a lot of people haven't seen that video. Let

691
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: me read the words right now, Biden is most of

692
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: these are the words. Biden has taken all Trump's works

693
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:58,319
Speaker 1: and switched to Obama's carefully instructed instructions. This nation is

694
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 1: in complete chaos. Let us pray for a moment. Let

695
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 1: us bless this nation for a moment. My dear friends,

696
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: my fellow Americans. Donald J. Trump was our savior. This

697
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 1: new administration has turns us upside down with deceit and destruction.

698
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:23,240
Speaker 1: We're all in the same frame of mind, hoping, praying

699
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 1: for God's miracle, a miracle that can cross us over

700
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:33,360
Speaker 1: like the parting of the See Jesus spoke, Moses spoke,

701
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 1: Let God speak, Let God heal all our suffering souls.

702
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: And let President Trump feel this because he was truly

703
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: following God's call, not the swamp that destroys. I want

704
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: to get to the end of it, because it's very important.

705
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,320
Speaker 1: He President Trump had a gift for all people, all nations.

706
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: He loved this country and he did say it until

707
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 1: the left wing distorted all his work and turned it

708
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: into their deceit. We the people who have faith, We

709
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 1: the people that love our country, the USA. We all

710
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: must focus on what is truly truths, what and who

711
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: has our best interest. Be aware, my fellow Americans, the

712
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: Biden administration has destroyed our nation. But my friends, God

713
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,919
Speaker 1: has a plan. He will show that truths will win.

714
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:41,760
Speaker 1: No man can lie, steal or take away the one truth.

715
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 1: And that is the power of God, the power of righteousness,

716
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,280
Speaker 1: the power of Abraham Lincoln's work, the note he left

717
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 1: for his nation that this nation under God shall have

718
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people,

719
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:07,439
Speaker 1: by the people, for the people shall not perish from

720
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: this earth. I really do think, you know, we talked

721
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 1: about earlier about sort of looking at God and family,

722
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 1: and I think that's part of the reason why the

723
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 1: left tends to de emphasize religion, they tend to de

724
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:21,880
Speaker 1: emphasize family, is because if you're rooted in these things

725
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: that are deeper and more important than government, you're not

726
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: looking to government. I mean, they really want a population

727
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 1: that is completely dependent on the government, that's dependent on them,

728
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't have you know, aren't that aren't rooted in

729
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: core convictions like family and religion. It seems nonsense. You

730
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: know of the COVID stuff to stay in your house,

731
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: do do this? Do that? Where your masks? Where three masks? Do?

732
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:51,960
Speaker 1: What are you doing? They spend their time with that.

733
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 1: They don't spend their time solving anything. They have no

734
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: understanding of governance. Certainly they have no understanding of the economy.

735
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: I mean, and listen, this is a long story with communism.

736
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: When Lenin took over in Russia the Bolsheviks, after four years,

737
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,879
Speaker 1: he killed four million people, starved more four million people

738
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 1: than the death and ten years later over five million

739
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: people were starved by Joseph Stalin. I was there in

740
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: the early nineties, nineteen ninety one, and I was witnessed

741
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:31,919
Speaker 1: to the misery that the people lived under. And this

742
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:36,359
Speaker 1: is what we're voting in now. We have we've got

743
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 1: to stop this. We've got to know that we have

744
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: a great country with a tremendous set of principles and instructions.

745
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,959
Speaker 1: We have to get back to it, to our happiness.

746
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: And we're suffering right now, and we have to prevail.

747
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: The truth has to prevail now. We have to stand up.

748
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 1: Do you think that's why? I mean, you know, Martin

749
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: Luther King said that he wanted his kids to grow

750
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 1: up in a nation that they were judged on the

751
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,280
Speaker 1: content of their character versus the color of their skin.

752
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: But it seems like the left is pushing this idea

753
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,600
Speaker 1: that everyone views each other from a racial prism, as

754
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: a prism versus just looking at each other as human

755
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: beings or fellow Americans. You know, why do you think

756
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 1: we've arrived at this point of such racial division. Yeah, well,

757
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 1: it's it's been inserted into our country because of all

758
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,320
Speaker 1: of this stuff, the gender stuff that came with the

759
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:38,040
Speaker 1: private school. You know, we've been invaded. We got to

760
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,760
Speaker 1: know where this came from and and you know, reveal

761
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: it to folks. This this whole nonsense of you know,

762
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:55,919
Speaker 1: diversity training programs that are not about racial sensitivity. They're

763
00:49:55,960 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: about demonizing white people now and the constitutional order of

764
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 1: individual freedom, equality and accountability that the American founders created

765
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 1: dressing up a racial attack, you know, like this and

766
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:17,879
Speaker 1: demand for conformity as racial sensitivity towards minorities is perhaps well,

767
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: it's the only way such an anti democratic set of

768
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 1: ideas could possibly be imposed on the American mind. But anyway,

769
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 1: we're dealing with real bad stuff. Here bad thinking, what's

770
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,120
Speaker 1: the path forward? Because you've you've been a student of this,

771
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: You've paid a lot of attention over the years, which

772
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 1: is obvious in my conversation with you. You know, what's

773
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: your what's your hope for America? What's your hope for

774
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:45,399
Speaker 1: the future. I say, righteousness is done dead. God has

775
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 1: not left his chair, you know. I say, it's this

776
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:54,439
Speaker 1: is It's not it's not just going to church. It's

777
00:50:54,480 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 1: not an understanding that we are here for. What is

778
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: a life worth? What is a life? We have to

779
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:09,279
Speaker 1: ask that question. Our lives are are given us an

780
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 1: opportunity to grow, to learn lessons, to grow strong, to help,

781
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:20,320
Speaker 1: to look to other people. What is the basic golden rule?

782
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: Do one too others? Well, all of that is missing.

783
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 1: Now let's not do onto others. Meet has another meaning.

784
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: Now do it to your you know, the your enemy,

785
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: do it. Do it to the masses. Do it. But

786
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's this totalitarian thing that the American founders

787
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 1: put behind us, put behind the world. We were the

788
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: you know the Declaration of Independence. You know these words

789
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 1: in the Declaration of Independence changed three thousand years of tyranny.

790
00:51:55,680 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 1: We brought forth government by the people, you know in

791
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: a very beautiful, very considered way, that these instructions that

792
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: are in our constitution are golden and we change the

793
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 1: world what we thought forever, but now we're being pulled back.

794
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 1: So anyway, the answer is that God is real, and

795
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 1: we have to be we have to be our better selves,

796
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 1: and we have to stand now for our children and

797
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,720
Speaker 1: the future children. And what's next for you? You've you've confort,

798
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: You've accomplished a tremendous amount in your life. What do

799
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: you want to do? What's next for you? Oh? Well,

800
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm eighty two years old, and I'm

801
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 1: still very very active and uh, you know, and pretty

802
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:55,280
Speaker 1: good health, and you know, and I still love acting,

803
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 1: So I'll still do my work as an actor, you know,

804
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,399
Speaker 1: the best I can. I probably never never somebody asked

805
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 1: me if I would retire ASA. No, I don't think

806
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: I'm going to retire as long as I can still

807
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 1: play something, you know, the available. But the idea for

808
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,439
Speaker 1: me is I'm looking after this country the best I can.

809
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: I feel so much my citizenship to this country. I'm

810
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:27,399
Speaker 1: so proud to be an American patriot and to understand

811
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 1: what was given to us and to find myself allied

812
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 1: with the great people of our history, all those wonderful

813
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:44,240
Speaker 1: people who have been given memorials in DC. They're great,

814
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 1: great people. All those words on the walls, I understand them,

815
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 1: and so I'll carry on the best I can to

816
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: see if I can do everything I can before I

817
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: have to leave. Well, sir, I have a tremendous a

818
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 1: matter of respect for you. You are incredibly talented actor,

819
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 1: You're a patriot, and hopefully now I can call you

820
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:06,760
Speaker 1: a friend. Um. And it's been in such an honor

821
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 1: to have this conversation with you, and I so appreciate

822
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 1: your time. It means the world to me. Great, Well,

823
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:14,800
Speaker 1: this is my pleasure to be with you. I didn't

824
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 1: find in this conversation as much as i'd like about you.

825
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,440
Speaker 1: What would you like to ask before we go? I'd

826
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: really like to know what your parents were like, what

827
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:27,839
Speaker 1: you what your siblings were like? How did you grow up?

828
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: Because you, at a very early age have got so

829
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: much clarity and so much drive. It's wonderful. I so

830
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,560
Speaker 1: appreciate that, Thank you, sir. You know I grew up

831
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,919
Speaker 1: my parents are very religious. They're Christians. They believe in God,

832
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 1: so they taught us belief in God, taught us to

833
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 1: you know, respect others, to be kind to others, to

834
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 1: you know, try to practice what you preach. I grew up,

835
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:52,879
Speaker 1: you know, similar to what you were talking about with

836
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,759
Speaker 1: your dad. You know, my my parents have always been

837
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 1: those people that, you know, no matter what you want

838
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 1: to do in life, we support you. And there's even

839
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 1: been times where you know, I've left jobs. I took

840
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 1: a gamble, you know, I left a great job to

841
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,280
Speaker 1: take a gamble on TV to see if I could

842
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 1: you know, get a contract and make it work. And I,

843
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 1: you know, didn't really have a plan in place. It

844
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,839
Speaker 1: was sort of it was sort of something that just

845
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: came up and it arised and I had to make

846
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,239
Speaker 1: a decision and my parents were fully supportive of it

847
00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 1: because they knew I loved television. They knew that was

848
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,319
Speaker 1: my dream. So I was very blessed, like you to

849
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: have parents that were just very supportive, and you know,

850
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 1: we're there, loved, unconditionally supportive no matter what, always there

851
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,280
Speaker 1: to pick you up. And which is why I believe

852
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 1: that family nucleus is everything in life. And I grew

853
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,360
Speaker 1: up with three brothers, so I had an older brother

854
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 1: who you know says that he made me tough, you know, practicing,

855
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,919
Speaker 1: you know, wrestling moves and you know, stuff like that.

856
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, I grew up in an environment where family

857
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 1: is everything, you know, and especially I'm sure you feel

858
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 1: this way, you know, working in Hollywood and working and acting.

859
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: You know, look media as a fickle beast, right, So

860
00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:59,200
Speaker 1: it's you know, things are going great today, and I'm

861
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,400
Speaker 1: fortunate for that, and I've worked hard, and I blessed

862
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: to have what I have for now, but it could

863
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: go way tomorrow. And so if that happens, what are

864
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: you left with and what really matters in life? And

865
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's friends, it's family, it's the people around you.

866
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 1: It's the things that are so much more important than

867
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 1: work or money or any of this other stuff. So

868
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: I try to keep that in the back of my

869
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,760
Speaker 1: mind too, in an industry that I know so fickle,

870
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:25,000
Speaker 1: so up and down, and you never know where it's

871
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 1: gonna end up. You know, even a week from now, Well,

872
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:31,360
Speaker 1: you're doing very very well. You're blessed to have great gifts,

873
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 1: you know so, and you're using them wisely. So I'm

874
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:39,600
