Maybe you're a smoker, or someone else was 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: just living create smells.

Jesse 57 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: at Jesse Kelly Show dot com. For ADBC, here's the 58 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: old sitch. Here's the situation in the world at the 59 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: time Persia is running it that the accumated Persian Empire 60 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: was so absurdly gigantic. And I don't want to say 61 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: tolerant and gentle, because that's not really accurate if you 62 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: look into it, but really not that tyrannical compared to 63 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: the other empires of their time. I want you to 64 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: just see you can get a good idea of it, 65 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: because you and I don't. We're not raised talking too 66 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: much about the Persians. You'll learn about them in history class, 67 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: of course, but each region of the world kind of 68 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: focuses on their own history more or even other parts 69 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: of the world that are tied to them, Like when 70 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: you and I learned about history. I'll tell you I 71 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: loved history growing up. I remember learning about the Greeks. 72 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: I don't remember learning about the Persians. I'm sure they 73 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: mentioned them, but that's because as Americans, we have more 74 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: of a tie in with the Greeks. We don't have 75 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: that tie in with the Persians. But people do not 76 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: understand how gigantic this empire was and powerful. Pull up 77 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: a world map, just on your phone briefly, you know, 78 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: we do this from time to time, and I want 79 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: you to look at something. I want you to look 80 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: at India. India is easy to find, right you see 81 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: India there, and I want you to go from east 82 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: to west India clear to Egypt and Turkey. In the West, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, 83 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: Saudi ray All everything you see was owned by the 84 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: accummated Persian empire that time. Do you have any idea 85 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: how big that land mass is? Look at Europe. You 86 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: can fit Europe in that land mass, all of it. 87 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: They were huge, and they were what I said, tolerant. 88 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: Understand us about the Persians? Obviously, yes, they'd pull your 89 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: fingernails out. And they're the ones who came up with Scaffism, 90 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: which may be the worst way to die in history. 91 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: I think we decided it was the worst way to 92 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: die in history. Perhaps I should elaborate on that later 93 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: on in the show. Chris, So that's gruesome, you know, 94 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: I write that down. I'll I'll tell everybody what we 95 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: have to. We have to tell them what it is 96 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: later on the show. So tolerance maybe a little strong 97 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: when you hear about scaffism. But the Persians were much 98 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: more hands off than many your colonial empires. They wouldn't 99 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: come in and force you, blow up your gods, burn 100 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: down your buildings. There were much more along the lines 101 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 1: of no, keep your gods, do your thing, keep your traditions, 102 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: just pay your taxes, send us troops when you or 103 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: when we demand them, we're in charge, but you got 104 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: of your life. Empires city states would often willingly come 105 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: over to the Persians because being part of the Persian 106 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: Empire really wasn't that bad. And they did that on purpose. 107 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: They wanted it to be. I mean, I don't want 108 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: to welcome to see I'm making it sound way nicer 109 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: than it was. But it wasn't that bad. And plus 110 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: you had the protection of the Persian Empire. Remember, as 111 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: we've said a thousand times, colonization, ain't that bad. They 112 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: want you to think it's the most evil thing in 113 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: the world. There were a lot of places out there 114 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: happy to be gobbled up by the Persian Empire. Please. Yeah, 115 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: of course. However, we have to go across and explain 116 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: Greece really quickly first, before we can say what happened. 117 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Greece was a collection of city states. Greece was not 118 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: a country. It was not a nation at all. They 119 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: did share a language, they did share a religion, they 120 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: shared the same gods, so they're very, very very similar culturally. 121 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of cross over there. Obviously, Athens is 122 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: drastically different than Sparta, who's drastically different than thieves that 123 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: there are different there are different cultures inside, but still 124 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: Greece is not one nation. They're often killing each other. However, 125 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: they do have this thing where they get protective of 126 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: each other, and they have alliances almost all the time. 127 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: Amongst the city states. You have Sparta and Athens. You 128 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: know about them, but Sparta will have several little Greek 129 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: city states who are allies of it, and Athens will 130 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: do the same. And there were these Ionian Greeks who 131 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: were part of the Persian Empire. They're on the eastern 132 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: part of the Greek Empire, and they rebelled against Persia Athens. 133 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: Athens decides they're going to get involved and try to 134 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: help out their Ionian Greeks. It doesn't work out, but Persia, 135 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: powerful and tolerant as they may be, they're not going 136 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: to put up with that. Nor would any empire back 137 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: in the day. Again, Persia gets a lot of bad press. 138 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: The movie three hundred did them no favors either, But 139 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: empires in the day you don't put up with rebellion. 140 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: You show up. I'm not saying you have to go 141 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: full Assyrian and drape the walls with the skins of 142 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: your flight enemies. However, and it's kind of important that 143 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: you do put it down and put it down forcefully. 144 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: And you also can't stand up at the Greek city 145 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: state jumping in and putting their nose in your business. 146 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: And we think of the Greeks as the modern, you know, 147 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: foundation of democracy. We could already see the white pillars, 148 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: and everybody loves Greek mythology and that kind of stuff. 149 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: You already see all that. Persia was the advanced empire 150 00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: here and Persia viewed the Greeks as barbarians. Now that 151 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: probably was Persia's big mistake, because there are barbarians, and 152 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: then are barbarians, and then there are barbarians. The Greeks 153 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: were more organized than that, but that's how Persia looked 154 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: at the Greeks. Then there was some an incident with 155 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: a Merse with a emissaries where the Greeks killed some 156 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: of those, and now Persia has to respond, and remember 157 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: they ended up fighting the Battle of Marathon. Persia loses. 158 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: Persia didn't think they gave their best effort. Well, they're 159 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: about to give their best effort now and invasion is coming, 160 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 1: all right, Stimulus bill talk, Hang on, this is a 161 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly show like a stain on your brain you 162 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: can't get out. Natural medicines and holistic healing approaches. These 163 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: things are known to alleviate the things that plague us. Well, 164 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: y'all have something, don't we? Anxiety? You have any of 165 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: that lately? I mean, look look at our situation right now. 166 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: There's plenty of that going around. Headaches, joint pain, sleeplessness.

We will get to that here in a 180 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: few we have some rand Paul dropping fire in Brimstone 181 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: audio today. It is glorious. It's Rampaul Man. He's too 182 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: short to be President Chris, but I like him. Is 183 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: he short of you've been? Oh gosh, he's tiny tiny. 184 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: I met him one time. I felt like I was babysitting. 185 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: I'll quit. We can make jokes, all right, quick Back 186 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: to the three hundred. Persia decides they can't let this 187 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: Battle of Marathon thing go, which they lost to the Greeks. 188 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: They can't let the Ionian revolt go where Athens stuck 189 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: their nose in it. They're going to go do something 190 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: about it. Persia begins to pull in troops. We have 191 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: to adjust our thinking when it comes to how long 192 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: this takes. An invasion of this size would have taken years. 193 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: Think how long it is. You saw that span, Think 194 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: how long it takes? And don't I know this is 195 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: a bit of a nerdy detail, so I'm not going 196 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: to dwell on it too much. But let's just this 197 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: picture the Persian capital wherever it is. Picture the Persian 198 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: capital having to send people out. You have to send 199 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: messengers out on foot. There aren't carrier pigeons. You're sending 200 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: messengers out on foot to all the well on horseback, 201 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: to all the other nations you have, telling them, organize 202 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: your army and send it to me. Okay, well, now 203 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: they have to organize their armies in the various places. 204 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: Some of these guys are gonna have to conscript people 205 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: for it. That's gonna take time. You're gonna have to 206 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: equip him. Once it's equipped, you're gonna have to supply 207 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: him for the journey. Once the journey. Are you seeing 208 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: what I mean? You don't just snap your fingers. I'm 209 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: mad at Greece. We're invading tomorrow. Oftentimes wars, ancient wars 210 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: like this, they were generational. The father does the prep 211 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: and the sun finishes it off. Alexander the Great ring 212 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: any bells, you know why he invaded Greece, as his 213 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: dad was prepping for it a long time before he died. Xerxes, 214 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: who was the current king of Persia, also done no 215 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: favors by the movie three hundred. He is not He's 216 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: not that bad. Now, he's not that good either. It's 217 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: not as if he's the greatest of the kings. They 218 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: had Syre and Darius like Persia really had some incredible kings. 219 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: Early on, Xerxes is more of the rich kid. Probably 220 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: pretty tough to grow up as a grounded individual when 221 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: the king of your empire, who is now you, is 222 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: called the king of kings, When you have all the 223 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: wealth you could ever desire. Who knows what was going 224 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: on in the Harem at the time, all the food, 225 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: all the booze. They people worship you as a god. 226 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: Probably a little difficult to stay grounded. Remember what we 227 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: talked about the other day about doctor Fauci and doctor 228 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: Burkes getting a little too hooked on the celebrity too 229 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: many cable news shows. I love you, doctor Burkes? Could 230 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: I get a picture with you and love you? That's addicting. 231 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: What do you think it's like when they carry you 232 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: around on a throne, Chris? Can we do that? What 233 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: we can get the people here for an hour to 234 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: carry me around on throne? It's not difficult. They still 235 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: do that all right. Back to the point at hand, 236 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: that task at hand. They gather two hundred thousand men 237 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: for this invasion. They do estimate it was five hundred 238 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: thousand as far as all the support staff added in. 239 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: But they gather two hundred thousand men for their invasion 240 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: and the Greeks. Again, this stuff takes so long. The 241 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: Greeks know this is coming, and Athens and Sparta have 242 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: already gotten together. They form a league, essentially saying, hey, 243 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: I'll provide the army because I'm Sparta and we're studs. Athens. 244 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: You know all about this shipping thing. I think that's 245 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: for women, So you do that. In all seriousness, they 246 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: were gathering themselves together. Xerxes is already sending emissaries to 247 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: all the Greek city states there were many, and telling 248 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: them and that they got this right from the movie. 249 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: He was telling them he demands earth and water. What 250 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: he's saying as I demand that you bow your nee 251 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: to me, you're going to work for me. You're going 252 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: to give me troops to fight against your fellow Greeks. However, 253 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: it's not that bad of a life. Xerxes goes to 254 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: cross the hell of Spot. You can look that up. 255 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: That's that tiny strip of water. Probably gives you a 256 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: pretty good window into the mentality of this person. The 257 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: first time he tries to cross the hell of Spot, 258 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: it is destroyed. There's a bad, bad storm that comes up. 259 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: He has people executed for that and then he has 260 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: people walk into the water and whip the water for 261 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: daring to defy him. So, okay, we're not We're not 262 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: dealing with the most grounded individual in the history of mankind. 263 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't know that he's doing well mentally. However, this 264 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: is still a humongous force. But we need to pause 265 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: for just a brief moment because the devil is in 266 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 1: the details, and we need to talk about the force. 267 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: You saw in the movies, or in the movie three hundred, 268 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: I should say, if you saw it. Xerxes had these 269 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: guys that were all scary, monster looking called the Immortals. 270 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: That was actually a real group. No, they did not 271 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: look like that at all. However, there were ten thousand 272 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: of them. They were known as his personal guard. They 273 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: were highly trained, well armored, great weapons. These were very, 274 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: very very good troops. Were they sparta good? Well, we'll 275 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: get to that here in just a few minutes. However, 276 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: the other troops Xerxes had aren't necessarily what you're thinking 277 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 1: when you think about this massive Persian empire. It's easy 278 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: to fall into this trap of thinking about this huge 279 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,160 Speaker 1: Persian army. You think about like the American army. Look 280 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: at them. They're all dressed the same with the same weapons. 281 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: These guys are all different. They come from all different 282 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: parts of the world. Many many, many of them are 283 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: simply people who've been forced into this. They're poor farmers, 284 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: and I mean most of them are poor people. They 285 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: don't have good armor, they don't have good spears, they 286 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: don't have this. Now, obviously there are plenty of warriors 287 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: mixed in there. But what is one thing most of 288 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: that area I pointed out to you, most of the Persia. 289 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: What's one thing that area has in common? Think about 290 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 1: it for a second. Look at that map again, What's 291 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: one thing about it. It's hot, It's really hot. Here's 292 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: the thing. Armies historically, they oftentimes reflect, for obvious reasons, 293 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: the area where they come from. Armies who fight in 294 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: the heat like that, learn to fight light. You don't 295 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: wear a bunch of clothing, you don't wear heavy armor, 296 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: you can't carry around super heavy shields. Why because you'll 297 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: die of heat stroke in the Egyptian desert while you're 298 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: trying to fight a war. However, now you know why 299 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: the American military to this day I did it does 300 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: so much cross training in different environments. You really need 301 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: to know how to fight somewhere else with a different 302 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: fighting style. This is going to come back to bite 303 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: the Persian army badly. They cross the Hellespont. It is 304 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: supposed to be this marvel of engineering. I think it's 305 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: I may have this number one. I think it's a 306 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: mile and a half wide. But they built these ships. 307 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: They parked the ships beside each other and built this 308 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: platform across it of dirt and wood. And picture five 309 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people crossing a ship bridge across the Hellespont. 310 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: People ask me a lot some historical things I'd die 311 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: to see. I'd like to see that engineering project. I 312 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: would love to see what that looks like. You wouldn't, Chris, 313 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? You'd rather see Julius Caesar's bridge 314 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: on the Rhine. I get that. That's fair. That's fair. 315 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: They cross over. The Greeks now have a plan. The 316 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: plan is the Athenians are going to try to block 317 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: the twelve hundred ship Persian fleet at sea, while the 318 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: Spartans and some others are going to try something else. 319 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: Hang on, we'll talk about that, and also the big 320 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: lie we all believe too often. Hang on. Jesse Kelly 321 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: one in three adults has pre diabetes one in three. 322 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: That means it could be you, your football buddy, your 323 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: football buddy, or your best man.

That's do I have 328 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: pre diabetes dot org? Wait? Did they just say one 329 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: in three adults has pre diabetes. That's thirty three point 330 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: three three three percent of adults. That means it could 331 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: be me my boss or my boss's boss, or me 332 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: my favorite sister or my other sister. That's seven members 333 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: of my twenty one person romantic book club. Wait, the 334 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: one in three could be me my karaoke partner Carol, 335 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: or my karaoke enemy, Jeff. I'm going to take the 336 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: risk test that do I have pre diabetes dot org? 337 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: Brought to you by the AD Council and it's pre 338 00:22:47,600 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: Diabetes Awareness Partners. It's weird to me when people are 339 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: cool very young. I don't I don't consider I didn't 340 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: think of myself as a huge dork when I was 341 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: twelve years old. But I think back to it now, Man, 342 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: what a huge dork I was. We're gonna talk about 343 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: the coolest twelve year old ever later on in the show. 344 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: Remember tomorrow, last show of the year. It is an 345 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: ask doctor Jesse Wednesday, and again a word of caution. 346 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: Tomorrow's history segment is gonna be dark. I can't There's 347 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: nothing I can do to sugarcoat it. Do the best 348 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: I can to shave off some of the rough edges. 349 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: But I'm giving it to you right between the eyes. 350 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: That's just a little up. Before we get there, debated 351 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: whether or not to even do the show, but we're 352 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: doing it now. Persia, they caught Greek spies. I remember 353 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: the Greeks are looking at the Persians and their army 354 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 1: that's crossing and whatnot. Now here's when you know you're powerful. 355 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: Persia captures Greek spies and promptly turns around and lets 356 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: them go so they can run back and tell their 357 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:32,239 Speaker 1: individual city states how scary the Persian juggernaut is. And 358 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: it works a lot of it works. The Persians are 359 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: coming in from the north. They need to think about 360 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: this like a northern invasion. They're coming into Greece to 361 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: the north and city states start falling. We like to 362 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: think of this as the time when all of Greece 363 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: united against the Persian horde. No no, no, no, no no. 364 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: These were individual city states, and honestly, you can't fault 365 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: lots of the smaller ones for it. What are they 366 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: going to do. There's no one up there to defend 367 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: m Let's see, we can all be burned alive, or 368 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: we can survive another day. I don't know what's written, 369 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: what's wrong there, but they start falling. The Spartans they 370 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: have a bit of a situation on their hands. You see. 371 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: The Spartans have this religious festival going on called the Carnea. 372 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: Don't worry about what it is, it doesn't matter. It 373 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: was a long way of me saying, these people who 374 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: lived and died for war were not allowed to fight 375 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: during this period of time. However, this is the period 376 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: of time the Persians are invading. I can't we can't 377 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: postpone this, but they couldn't so King Leonadas or Leonidas, 378 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: depending on however you want to. People say it to 379 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: many different ways. Leona Dus gathers three hundred dudes with him, 380 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: and let's be clear about this, about seven thousand other 381 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: Greek hoplights from other city states, and these three hundred 382 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: were considered to be Leonadus's personal bodyguard. That's why he 383 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: was allowed to take them with him. They're his personal 384 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: king's guard. And they head up north. They head up north, 385 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: and their plan is simply find a place where we 386 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: can delay the Greeks. Now, there is something that we've 387 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: all been lied to about. I don't want to burst 388 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: any bubbles on this, but let's be honest about this here. 389 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: They were not going north on a suicide mission. That 390 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: is not how they thought about this. They were going 391 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: north in order to find a place where they could 392 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: delay the Persian army long enough so they would get 393 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: reinforcements helping them. We have twisted this story around. It's 394 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: not accurate. Where we're all going off to die. Now, 395 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: Obviously they knew there was a good chance they were 396 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: going to die, but they didn't know this was a 397 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: foregone conclusion. They thought that maybe we'll find a spot 398 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: to hold off the Versions long enough while everyone else 399 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: gets organized. Everyone's scrambling right now, getting organized, calling up troops, 400 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: you know, arming of that, let's do this. They're trying 401 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: to force a delay one to get reinforcements. Like I 402 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 1: just said too, what have we talked about a thousand 403 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: times a great marine Robert Barrows quote, what do amateurs 404 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: study and what a professionals study? Amateur study tactics, professionals 405 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: study logistics. That Xerxes could even gather five hundred thousand 406 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: people and trapes them across the globe is impressive. That 407 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: they could supply them for any length of time is 408 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: extremely impressive. However, there's no way, with logistics being what 409 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: they were at that time, There's simply no way you 410 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: can feed and supply an army of that size for 411 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: very long lots of times. When you see in large 412 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: invading force is like that, they will die on the 413 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: vine if they don't take a large city or to 414 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: right off the back because you need the resupply or 415 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: your guys are gonna starve to death. The Greeks are 416 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: well aware of this too. They're going to try to 417 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: use the Persian numbers against them. One will delay them 418 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: while our guys get ready to let's stop them long enough. 419 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna starve to death if they last out here 420 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: more than a few days. And the Persians have another problem, 421 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: a problem we don't think about very often because we're 422 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: spoiled in its twenty twenty. You know what, they didn't 423 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 1: have a lot of in Greece. Remember what we talked 424 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: about before one of the ways roam crossed conquered the world. Roads. 425 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: They didn't have hardly any of those at this time 426 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: in the ancient world. And are they any in Greece. 427 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: You need roads and lots of them if you're going 428 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: to supply that many people. So the Persians had to 429 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: have their navy right beside them. Let's forced the Persians 430 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 1: to march really along the coast. That's where all the 431 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: food is, That's where all your stuff is. You you 432 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: don't have the roads. It's kind of a weird thing 433 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: to think about, right, you don't have the roads to 434 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: do it. They found a place famous now called Thermopoli. 435 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: It looks different now from what I understand. I've never 436 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: been there. Erosion and stuff like that has made it 437 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: look much different. But at the time there was a 438 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: mountain on the left from the Greek perspective, a mountain 439 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: on the left twenty five meter flat plot of ground, 440 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: and then a cliff down to the ocean twenty five meters. 441 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: The Spartans lined up, the Persians marched up, and Persians 442 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: the Persia couldn't believe that a force this small was opposing. 443 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: There's a path through the mountains that would lead down 444 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: behind the Spartans. And again, contrary to the myth, Leonidas 445 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: wasn't unaware of this path. He was very aware of 446 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: the path. He was very aware of the danger it 447 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: would pose to him, and he was smart enough to 448 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: take a thousand of his seven thousand. They weren't his guys, 449 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: but other Greek When we're about to find out the 450 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: difference between Spartans and other Greeks, he took a thousand 451 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: of the other Greeks and put them up in the 452 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: past so they would be able to oppose the Persians 453 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: if the Persians discovered that path and tried to come 454 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: around behind him. Again, this was not a suicide mission. 455 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: This was a well thought out military campaign. Are they 456 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: out man? You know? Seven thousand verses two hundred thousand. Yeah. 457 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: But they did have a plan here, and the plan 458 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: was not for everybody to die. It was not day 459 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: number one happens. Obviously, there's some negotiating there. This is 460 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: where we get all the great Spartan lines, laid down 461 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: your weapons, and the Spartans yelling back, come and get them. 462 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: These are things that actually happened, that wasn't just in 463 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: the movies. To be hundred of our arrows will blow 464 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: out the sun, and the Spartans responding, then we will 465 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: fight in the shade. That's not just a movie line, 466 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: that's historical. That's what I mean. How great are the Spartans? 467 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: How great are the Spartans? My favorite story of all time, 468 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: not to get sidetracked, is when Philip the Second of Macedonia, 469 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,479 Speaker 1: Alexander the Great's father, he's kicking everyone's running. He can 470 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: easily take over Sparta. At this point, Sparta's aged and 471 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: broken down and sends them sends a letter to the 472 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: Spartans saying, if you don't, you know, submit to me. 473 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: I will raise your cities to the ground and things 474 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: like that, and Sparta sends back a one word response 475 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: that says, if how great are they? How great is 476 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: that they didn't even have walls on their city. No walls, 477 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: We don't need walls. Please do me a favor, Come 478 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 1: on in and try please. Gosh, they're awesome. All right, 479 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to try to wrap up this Battle and 480 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: the next segments. We have so much to get to today. 481 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: We have some rand Paul Audiosh Fire and Brimstone. Nancy 482 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: Pelosi too.

No word in English language 488 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: is less convincing than probably. Are you sure we should 489 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: get matching tattoos on our first fate? Sure? And we'll 490 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: probably stay together. Probably. It's been twenty three minutes since 491 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: I ate. I can probably swim. You should wait thirty minutes.

Hey? 495 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: Are you sure you're okay to drive? Yeah? I'm pretty sober. Yeah, 496 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: I'm probably okay. Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it 497 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: comes to drinking and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, 498 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: a car, or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. 499 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: A message brought to you by NITZA and AD Council. 500 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 1: You can find me on social media at Jesse Kelly DC. 501 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: The Jesse Kelly Show has its own Twitter page at 502 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Show. That'll be nice to have as soon 503 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: as they get finished running me off all the social 504 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: media platforms for being offensive. Chris White got some great 505 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: Rampaul audio this stimulus Bill Man. People. People are losing 506 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: their minds. Hid people in my life. They're like, when 507 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 1: are we going to war? Calm down here, We're not 508 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: going to war. We'll address that in a few. I'm 509 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,760 Speaker 1: gonna tell you my story here and a few about 510 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: what it's like taken on the GOP establishment. Did you 511 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: ever tell you about the time they tried to bribe 512 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: me out of the race? Never told you about that? 513 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: I never told you about that. Oh, I'll tell you 514 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 1: about it today. You don't love this? All right? Let's 515 00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: wrap up this story. Persians and Greeks they slam into 516 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: each other. The Greek phalanx is something you already know 517 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:12,240 Speaker 1: about because you listen to my show. Shields locked overlapping spears, 518 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: stabbing eight ten foot spears, the Persians run into a major, major, 519 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: major problem on day one one. They bring out the 520 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: archers first. Keep in mind, this whole time Athens is 521 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: blocking Persia at sea. Athens managed to get their navy 522 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: in a great spot where they're blocking the Persians at sea. 523 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,919 Speaker 1: The Persians roll out their archers, and this is historically 524 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,800 Speaker 1: how Persia conquered a lot of their places. They simply 525 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 1: had way more archers than other places were used to, 526 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: and they did blot out the sun and they would 527 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: just destroy your RMB before you ever engaged. This was 528 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: how they were used to fighting styles make fights. As 529 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: you hear all the time in boxing and mma. Today, 530 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: well we're about to see the fatal flaw of the archers. 531 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: That works great when you're fighting Egyptians, when you're fighting 532 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: tribes in India, when you're fighting these people, you know 533 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,320 Speaker 1: where archers aren't doing you any good. When you're fighting 534 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 1: against heavily armored Greek hop lights with gigantic shields, they 535 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 1: simply put their shields in the air and all your 536 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: arrows either bounce off or fail to get any significant penetration. 537 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: The Persians pour archery into the Spartans that day and 538 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 1: do no damage none. The Spartans are totally fine. Okay, well, 539 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: not the end of the world. Persia then does something, 540 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: an understandable thing, not the most humane thing in the world, 541 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: but understandable. If you're King Xerxes, you have this huge 542 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: invasion force, remember your goals not to take Thermopylie, your 543 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: goals to simply brush aside these annoying Greeks in Thermopoli 544 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: and go take over all of Greece. You have a 545 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: lot of things to do here, you have a lot 546 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: of countryside to cover. You don't want to waste your 547 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: best troops on these guys, not very many of them. 548 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,760 Speaker 1: He sends some of his weakest, most poorly equipped troops 549 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: up there, and it is an absolute massacre. Bodies stacked 550 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: on top of each other, massacre. The Spartans take no damage, none, 551 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: and they are slaughtering the Persians. The Persian bodies are 552 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: the blood is soaked into the ground. By this point 553 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: in time, the Persians simply cannot get close enough to 554 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: the Spartans to hurt them. The Spartans, it's not just 555 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: the shields of the armor. The spears are so much 556 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 1: longer than any other hand to hand weapon. The Persians 557 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: have it was not their fighting style, and it sounds small. 558 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: It's not. If I can stab you three feet before 559 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,479 Speaker 1: you can stab me, it's going to be a quick 560 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: fight for you. You. The Persians get slaughtered on Day one, slaughtered. 561 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 1: They even bring out the immortals. Remember the ten thousand 562 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 1: elite troops well armored, Well, guess what they didn't have. 563 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: They also didn't have eight foot spears. And these amazing 564 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: immortals go up against the Spartans and well, historically we 565 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: don't have to guess who would have won, and one 566 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 1: of those who done it things the Spartans absolutely mopped 567 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: up the immortals like they weren't even there. The Spartans 568 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: were bad men. Well, when you're taken from your home 569 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: at seven and put into military training for the rest 570 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: of your life, you will tend to be fairly tough. 571 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: Maybe not the most well rounded person in the world, 572 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: but pretty tough. That was day one. Day two rolls 573 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 1: out and the Persians are getting very frustrated, Xerxes getting 574 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: very very angry. We have now times where the Persians 575 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,280 Speaker 1: will approach the Greek four and one dude will step 576 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: out a challenger, a champion, and he will challenge in 577 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 1: individual Greek or challenge anybody. Somebody, come out and fight 578 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: me and we'll do a one on one in front 579 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,399 Speaker 1: of the army's type thing. You saw something like that 580 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: in the movie Troy. They did that. Send out your champion, 581 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: will send out ours. Well, in many Greek city states, 582 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 1: it's illegal to break away from the phalanx. Not frowned 583 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: upon illegal death penalty. You fight as a group, you 584 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: don't break ranks. The Spartans just simply laughed at the 585 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 1: champions and stayed right where they were. Now I'm good, 586 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: come on over, We're ready for you. Day two goes 587 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: the exact same way. Xerxes now throws fifty thousand of 588 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: his Persians up against these Greeks, and they're still getting slaughtered. 589 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: And the Persians are running into problems now where they're 590 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 1: having to step over the dead bodies of the already 591 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: other dead Persians, and they're getting stabbed while they do. 592 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: It's just a disaster so far. Day three brought something else. 593 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: This is the part that's been misunderstood. We have to 594 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: explain what actually happened. We're gonna wrap this up and 595 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to all this awesome stuff.

He had one of those 615 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: flat carts like you get it lows when you go 616 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: load up on hardware stuff he had one of those 617 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: flat carts hauling it to the floor over fifty five 618 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 1: hundred pages.

They 624 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: do this openly, They do this right in our faces 625 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: because they don't respect this pay. Don't they show you that. 626 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 1: Hang on, we'll talk about it the Jesse Kelly Show. 627 00:43:47,320 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 1: This is the Jesse Kelly Show. Pikans like to mock 628 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: modern monetary theory, the idea of the government can print 629 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 1: money with impunity, that government can spend whatever it wants 630 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: without the need to tax. Modern monetary theory is basically 631 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: the Dick Cheney deficits don't matter crowd trust up with 632 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:24,760 Speaker 1: a new fancy title. Most Republicans rightly lampoon this quackery. 633 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: That is, when they're not practicing the quackery themselves. Today, 634 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 1: many of these same Republicans will vote for a bill 635 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 1: that makes modern monetary theory look like child's play. In comparison, 636 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: the monsters spending bill presented today is not just a 637 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: deficits don't matter disaster. It is everything Republicans say they 638 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: don't believe in. This bill is free money for everyone. 639 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 1: Proponents don't care if you're fully employed, or own your 640 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:59,280 Speaker 1: own house, or own your own business. Free money for everyone, 641 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 1: they CROs And Yet, if free money were the answer, 642 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 1: if money really grew on trees, why not give more 643 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 1: free money? Why not give it out all the time? 644 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: Why stop at six hundred dollars a person? Why not 645 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars? Why not two thousand dollars? Maybe these 646 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 1: new free money Republicans should join thee everybody gets a 647 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: guaranteed income caucus. Why not twenty thousand a year for everybody? 648 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 1: Why not thirty thousand. If we can print up money 649 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 1: with impunity, why not do it? The Treasury can just 650 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: keep printing the money, that is, until someone points out 651 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 1: that the emperor has no clothes and that the dollar 652 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 1: no longer has value. To so called conservatives who are 653 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:54,320 Speaker 1: quick to identify the socialism of Democrats, if you vote 654 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 1: for this spending montrosity, you are no better. When you 655 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: vote to pass out free money, you lose your soul 656 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: and you abandon forever any semblance of moral or fiscal integrity. 657 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:20,280 Speaker 1: Senator Ran Paul dropping fire in brimstone out there. Prof Gosh, Chris, 658 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: get him on the show. That's official. We're get We're 659 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: having Rampaul in the show. I'm not even kidding. That 660 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:30,240 Speaker 1: was awesome. I cannot promise you I won't be playing 661 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: that again during this show. That's that's how awesome that was. 662 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: Man shot it from the rooftops. Ran, all right, let's 663 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:37,919 Speaker 1: wrap this thing out here. We got too much other 664 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: stuff because this Simmy Letsbiel. People are so mad. Day three, 665 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:50,839 Speaker 1: Battle of Thermopoli between Persia in the Greeks. Yes, there 666 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: was a trader in the Greek ranks who went to 667 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: the Persians and told them about the path behind the Spartans. However, 668 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:07,320 Speaker 1: the Persians didn't sneak up there unmolested and just sneak 669 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,240 Speaker 1: in behind the Spartans, who had no idea. The Spartans 670 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:14,840 Speaker 1: knew about the path. They had a thousand Folkian Greeks 671 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 1: up there hop lights. They had them stationed on the 672 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 1: path to stop the Persians if they came and the devil, 673 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 1: as is so often is, is in the details. You 674 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: can see the path, you can find the path. You 675 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 1: can put a thousand troops up there, but Leonardus only 676 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: had three hundred Spartans. He had to take a thousand 677 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 1: someone else and a thousands of someone else. They don't 678 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: have spartan discipline, they don't have spartan training. You took 679 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: a thousand Folkian troops and put them up there, and 680 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:55,280 Speaker 1: they were asleep when the Persians got there. They didn't 681 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 1: even have their armor on the Persians, and the Persians 682 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 1: sent there mortals up there too, and the Persians see them, 683 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: the Greeks see the immortals. The Greek Phocians don't fight 684 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 1: because they thought they were gonna die, because they weren't 685 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: even armored up yet. They essentially stepped aside and stepped 686 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: up on a hill and said, just just trying to 687 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: protect themselves on an isolated place. The immortals very wisely 688 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 1: just ignored them and marched on by. They didn't care 689 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:27,720 Speaker 1: about those guys they wanted by the Greeks. They march 690 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 1: around behind the Greeks. They're obviously discovered pretty quickly. Now 691 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: the Greeks are in deep trouble. The Thebans, shamefully, which 692 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 1: are twenty percent of the total men here for the Greeks. 693 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: The Thebans see what's happening and defect to the other side. 694 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: They go tell Xerxes, sorry, the Spartans made us fight 695 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 1: for them. We didn't want to. They defect to the 696 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:58,959 Speaker 1: other side. The Spartans now realize this is the point 697 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: in time they do. This is a suicide mission. As 698 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:07,720 Speaker 1: soon as they're surrounded, they charge at the Persians. Credit 699 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: to the Spartans, they don't sit and wait. They charge 700 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: at the Spartans. King Leonodus goes down. He dies. The 701 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: Persians keep trying to get his body, and they're fought off, 702 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 1: they say, four times by the Spartans, who will not 703 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: let them take Leonadus's body. Which is so cool. And 704 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 1: now the Spartans are forced to back off because their 705 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: spears are starting to break. The Persians are attacking them 706 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: from every side. Their weapons are worn down. They are 707 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: worn down. We say that. They say this thing ended 708 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: with a few Spartans left on a hill, no spears left. 709 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,799 Speaker 1: All those are broken. Practically no swords left. Those are 710 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: broken too. The Spartans are now fighting and killing Persians 711 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: with rocks and with their teeth. How sweet is that? 712 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 1: But eventually they do die. They die, but the Persian 713 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 1: army goes down. In the end, Persia loses this war, 714 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 1: and frankly, obviously Alexander the Great came later. This was 715 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: really the cap on the Persian Empire. About seven thousand 716 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 1: men had to die for it, but this was the 717 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: cap on the Persian Empire. It's important for you and 718 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: I to understand something. We're constantly being told a lie. 719 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: And I see this all over the place, especially today 720 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 1: with the stimulus Bill, which we're about to discuss. There's 721 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: a lie. You're constantly told, constantly that you're too little, 722 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:56,359 Speaker 1: they're too big, there's nothing you can do, you have 723 00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: no chance, you have no voice, all hope is lost, 724 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:06,320 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Constantly. I'm looking 725 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,439 Speaker 1: at the things in this stimulus bill, and we're gonna 726 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 1: go over some of the things they're funding domestically, some 727 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 1: of the things they're funding foreign powers. Six hundred dollars 728 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 1: for you, and billions here and here and here. And 729 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: people are so angry. And I understand that. And people 730 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 1: today feel helpless and they're calling for a vetail, and 731 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 1: it seems like nobody wants to vetail this thing. And 732 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,359 Speaker 1: let's be clear about something on the stimulus bill here 733 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 1: and the interest of accuracy. It's not just a coronavirus 734 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 1: relief bill. It's a coronavirus relief bill attached to a 735 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:43,280 Speaker 1: year end spending package. That's why there's so much terrible 736 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 1: stuff in here. But people are realizing now because they've 737 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: been waiting to see what's in the bill. What you know, 738 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:54,320 Speaker 1: come save us. They're dying for something, and so people 739 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 1: were paying a unique amount of attention to what was happening, 740 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: and they're seeing what Congress does now, they're seeing where 741 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: your money goes, where my money goes. And people are 742 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 1: disgusted and they're scared and they're angry. And you're being 743 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 1: told this big lie. You've been told it your entire life, 744 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 1: that there's nothing you can do. Ah, you just it's 745 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 1: a little guy. There's nothing you can do. The powers 746 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: that be they own you. You can't, you can't take 747 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: on persia. What are you thinking? Just give in? Just 748 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 1: let it go and give in. Right, that's a lie. 749 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you something, and it's hopefully going 750 00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: to be a bit of a gut check time thing 751 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 1: for you. I am not obviously in control of your life, 752 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: nor do you want me to be. I'm enough of 753 00:52:54,040 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 1: a disaster on my own.

I'm going to tell you 782 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 1: my story about having done it. I'm not telling you 783 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: to do something I haven't done.

I mean, obviously, 793 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:46,320 Speaker 1: I don't expect a million people to get up and 794 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: run for Congress, because I'm saying it.

If all the good people in the 800 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: country simply throw up their hands and say, well, I 801 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: don't have a chance anyway, then we are screwed, turbo 802 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 1: screwed big time.

Screw that. 867 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: I don't have to start anywhere. I don't have to 868 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:48,640 Speaker 1: start anywhere. I'll start right dak On, Well, want to start, 869 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 1: I'm a free American. These people are not gods. Just 870 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 1: like the Persian army we talked about in the beginning, 871 01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: They're not They're not undefeast, not by a long shot, 872 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 1: but they want you to think they are. And it's 873 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 1: not only Democrats. I can't stress this enough. You probably 874 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,360 Speaker 1: need to primary. You're sorry, Republican Congressman. We talk about 875 01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 1: it all the time of them showing us what they believe. Well, 876 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 1: let's talk about you and I we talk about Congress sucking, 877 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:26,200 Speaker 1: and Congress does suck. Show me how much you think 878 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 1: it sucks. Over ninety percent of them get reelected every 879 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 1: single time. You and I have the power to send 880 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 1: four hundred and thirty five members of Congress home every 881 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: two years. You realize that. Do you realize what would 882 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 1: happen if the American people embraced the power of the vote. 883 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: How precious a vote is, how much people in other 884 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:53,080 Speaker 1: parts of the world would treasure that you can completely 885 01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 1: remake and reshape your government. Every two years, four hundred 886 01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:04,240 Speaker 1: and thirty five members of the House gone subject to 887 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:09,920 Speaker 1: the votes of the people and their individual districts. Imagine 888 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:13,480 Speaker 1: what the country looks like if the American people choose 889 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 1: to send their congressman home. What's the next spending bill 890 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 1: look like with your taxpayer money and my taxpayer money. 891 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 1: If we decide we're going to send the congressman home 892 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: who voted for it, don't forget about this spending bill 893 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,680 Speaker 1: in twenty four hours because there's a new political scandal 894 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 1: distraction out there.

Also author of Tipping Points, Liz Wheeler. Liz, 917 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:55,080 Speaker 1: I've been telling people today to run for office, to 918 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 1: primary their Republican opponents because we complained about things like 919 01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 1: this craft stimulus bill, but we don't actually do anything 920 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 1: about it. Do you think people were mad enough to 921 01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,439 Speaker 1: finally do something about it? I mean, I'm not sure 922 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,400 Speaker 1: you're talking about when you're talking about Republicans. If you 923 01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 1: look at the vote pallies for this omnibus spending bill, 924 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: what they were like six senators maybe seven senators who 925 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: voted against it. The rest of the Republicans who voted 926 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 1: in favor of it are indistinguishable from the Democrats. I mean, 927 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 1: this is the whole thing is so outrageous. There's more 928 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 1: money in this omnibus spending bill for gender programs in 929 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 1: Pakistan than money going into your pocket after these same 930 01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:40,560 Speaker 1: politicians shut down your business and your ability to provide 931 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 1: for your family. I don't know at what point people 932 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,959 Speaker 1: just say stop and I mean your advice is good. 933 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,680 Speaker 1: Run for office, hold these people accountable. This is a 934 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:55,680 Speaker 1: third Liz. Are they mad enough? Though? I mean, I 935 01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:58,040 Speaker 1: see the anger today. I know you've seen it all 936 01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:00,440 Speaker 1: over the place. But this stuff, as you well know, 937 01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:02,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you know this, it goes away in twenty 938 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:07,080 Speaker 1: four hours. People will be distracted by something else, someone else. 939 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:10,520 Speaker 1: Are we reaching a point where people will primary the Republicans? 940 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:12,040 Speaker 1: Because I'm glad you brought it up. That's what I've 941 01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: been telling people to do. Primary somebody today. Yeah, I 942 01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: mean you have to reach the point where people are 943 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 1: going to take action when it impacts your day to 944 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:23,320 Speaker 1: day life. That's the problem with half of the stuff 945 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 1: that you and I talk about on our shows, Jesse, 946 01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 1: is that it doesn't necessarily immediately touch people's lives, and 947 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 1: so it's very easy to get more focused on you know, 948 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:37,920 Speaker 1: your job, your kids, your kids' school, you know, everything 949 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:40,320 Speaker 1: that happens, your car breaking down, the fact that your 950 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 1: grass needs to be mowed. It's easy to focus on 951 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 1: things that are tangible to you in the immediacy. But 952 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:50,600 Speaker 1: this stuff, now, this omnibus spending bill, these shutdowns, the lockdowns, 953 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:54,919 Speaker 1: the COVID restrictions, the trampling of our individual liberties, this 954 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 1: does touch people immediately. People don't have the money to 955 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 1: pay rent, People can't provide for their family. The businesses 956 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:06,200 Speaker 1: are permanently shutting down. The restaurant industry is devastated. That's 957 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:08,920 Speaker 1: not something that people are going to overlook for this 958 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,880 Speaker 1: amount of time. After, by the way, we were told 959 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:14,400 Speaker 1: that this would just be fifteen days to flaw the spread. 960 01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 1: This isn't something that people are going to overlook, regardless 961 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 1: of what their political ideology is. And we were told 962 01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 1: that by people like doctor Burkes, who told again everybody 963 01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 1: not to travel this last Thanksgiving, don't gather with family. 964 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 1: If you did gather with family, just assume you're infected. 965 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,920 Speaker 1: And then we find out she was partying with three 966 01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 1: generations of her family at one of her vacation homes. 967 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,880 Speaker 1: Do people actually care about the hypocrisy? Do they care? 968 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 1: I mean, because to me, when I see someone do 969 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 1: something like that, what it tells me is, oh, it 970 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: tells me a lot. But it tells me doctor Burkes 971 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 1: isn't worried about coronavirus, not nearly these word just she 972 01:08:50,200 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 1: told you and I to be about it. Right. Well, 973 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 1: that's the thing. First of all, I don't care if 974 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 1: after Burkes celebrated Thanksgiving with her family. Good for her, 975 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 1: if that's what she wanted to do. I care that 976 01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 1: these same politiciss are trying to prohibit me from doing 977 01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:04,559 Speaker 1: the same thing. We don't live in a country where 978 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 1: there are two sets of rules, where the ruling class 979 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:10,679 Speaker 1: gets to abide by certain things and the everyday storry people, 980 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 1: you and me have to abide by another rules. No, 981 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:15,679 Speaker 1: that's not how our country works. So I don't care 982 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,679 Speaker 1: if she eats Thanksgiving with her family, but please don't 983 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 1: try to get involved in whether I ate Thanksgiving with mine. 984 01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:26,280 Speaker 1: And I did, and I was fine. It's they aren't afraid. 985 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 1: I mean, Nancy Pelosi, for example, want to get her 986 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:32,240 Speaker 1: hair cut in San Francisco. You remember hair salon Gates. 987 01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:34,680 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously she's not afraid of the virus. She 988 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,800 Speaker 1: acted in that way, and yet she's telling us that 989 01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:39,840 Speaker 1: we should be so deathly afraid that we should turn 990 01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:43,440 Speaker 1: over our most fundamental liberties to her. No, these politicians 991 01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 1: don't even believe what they're saying. They're just using it 992 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 1: as a reason, as a tool to grab power from 993 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 1: us so that they can re engineer society the way 994 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:57,639 Speaker 1: that they want, which is essentially socialist. What's a Christmas 995 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,679 Speaker 1: tradition in the wheel or household? Either from your fam 996 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 1: or now you're immediate fam, what's what's a Christmas tradition? 997 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 1: How do y'all do with it? I'm sure you have 998 01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:08,280 Speaker 1: some real old timey thing where you guys sit around 999 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:12,560 Speaker 1: and eat baked beans or something. Yes, a really meaningful 1000 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: tradition in our household, and this is in my household 1001 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: growing up, is when we decorate the Christmas tree. We 1002 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 1: don't use garland, use the tinsel. The icicles, right, the 1003 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 1: individual icicles, And it's a running joke or a running 1004 01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: competition to see who can decorate each other head with 1005 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,519 Speaker 1: the most icicles without that person noticing something basically like 1006 01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 1: a bird's nest of icicles. On the other side. This 1007 01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 1: has been a multigenerational tradition in our household, and it's 1008 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 1: it's never less fun, it's it's remarkably fun. Do you 1009 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: actually eat something decent at Christmas or is it back 1010 01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:53,559 Speaker 1: to being vegetarian chili and all these other gross things 1011 01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 1: that you eat. One of these days, I'm going to 1012 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:58,880 Speaker 1: force you to eat my vegan chili. You will like it, 1013 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 1: and you will will issue a retraction on air because 1014 01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 1: you will be so surprised at how tasty it is. 1015 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 1: You don't even have the energy to argue because probably 1016 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:12,920 Speaker 1: from all the inflammation from the meat you eat. You know, 1017 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 1: you know what, I actually looked at myself in the 1018 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:18,719 Speaker 1: mirror last night. I am quite inflamed. Something is definitely 1019 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 1: swollen Joe Biden's presidency. I've argued that assuming I'm assuming 1020 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 1: obviously now he's going to get sworn in his president, 1021 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:30,120 Speaker 1: the worst thing about it is not going to be 1022 01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:32,559 Speaker 1: the legislation. It's not going to be you know, raise taxes, 1023 01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,320 Speaker 1: which that will obviously come. It's going to be the 1024 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:40,640 Speaker 1: absolute America hating academic lunatics he packs our government with, 1025 01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 1: just like Obama did. Yeah, I mean I think it. 1026 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,720 Speaker 1: That depends, Actually I would I would caveat that. That 1027 01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 1: depends on whether Republicans maintain the majority in the Senate. 1028 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:54,880 Speaker 1: If Republicans maintain the Senate, meaning go out and vote 1029 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,639 Speaker 1: in the Georgia runoff. Do not listen to the fools 1030 01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 1: that are telling you not to vote for the Republican 1031 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 1: can of it because they're so called rhinos. The future 1032 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,720 Speaker 1: of our country, our constitutional our constitution actually not just 1033 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 1: our rights, is on the line here. This is the 1034 01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 1: last The Senate is the last bulwark against the radical 1035 01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:14,360 Speaker 1: leftist ideology. Go out and make sure that doesn't happen. 1036 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 1: Cast your vote in Georgia. If Republicans maintain their majority 1037 01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 1: in the Senate, then note the legislative agenda of the 1038 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 1: Biden Harris administration will not be the worst thing that 1039 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 1: we see coming out of that administration. But if we 1040 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: lose the Senate, then it absolutely will. The next two years, 1041 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:34,840 Speaker 1: if the Democrats have the presidency, the Senate, in the House, 1042 01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:37,600 Speaker 1: we will see things coming out of Congress that we 1043 01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 1: have never seen before. And I say that with the 1044 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:45,080 Speaker 1: utmost disdain for what Congress usually usually presents to us. 1045 01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 1: The stimulus being a perfect example. What are you going 1046 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:52,439 Speaker 1: to do with your six hundred dollars in stimulus money? Oh? God, 1047 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 1: probably won't even get any Are things ever going? When 1048 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 1: are things going to lighten up? I've argued that things 1049 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 1: are going to lighten up when it comes to these restrictions. 1050 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: As soon as we have mass defiance, and not before. 1051 01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,320 Speaker 1: It's not going to be a vaccine. That's a pie 1052 01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:11,920 Speaker 1: in the sky wish. None of that's going to happen. 1053 01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 1: When people all say screw it, that's when it will happen. 1054 01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:18,000 Speaker 1: You heard the latest thing on the vaccine today, rights 1055 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,240 Speaker 1: this new variant of the virus in the UK. We 1056 01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 1: all heard about that yesterday, of course, and you know 1057 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:25,439 Speaker 1: the headline today that I saw about it was I'm 1058 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:27,920 Speaker 1: trying to think which biotech company this. It might have 1059 01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:30,960 Speaker 1: been biotech, Actually I think it was Biotex. That the 1060 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 1: solution to this new variant, which is supposedly more contagious 1061 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,760 Speaker 1: than the original variant of the COVID nineteen virus, is 1062 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:39,800 Speaker 1: to make sure more people are vaccinated. No longer do 1063 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 1: we just have to reach a sixty percent herd immunity threshold. 1064 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 1: Now more people have to get vaccinated. According to a 1065 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 1: high level executive app a former company that is profiting 1066 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:52,040 Speaker 1: from the vaccine, I actually laugh when I read it 1067 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,559 Speaker 1: because people don't realize, and it's crazy that so many 1068 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:59,760 Speaker 1: people haven't realized at this point, these politicians and you know, 1069 01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:02,360 Speaker 1: the big form of companies apparently that are in bed 1070 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 1: with the politicians are never going to stop grabbing power 1071 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:09,160 Speaker 1: until we the people, force them to stop. They're never 1072 01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:11,679 Speaker 1: going to stop. They're going to continue to use COVID 1073 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 1: to take away our rights to impose their agenda on 1074 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 1: us unless we tell them to stop. Because why wouldn't 1075 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:21,479 Speaker 1: they stop on their own volition when their goal is power? 1076 01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 1: Liz Wheeler go watch her stuff.

Zero A 1096 01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:03,719 Speaker 1: message brought to you by AARP and the ad Council. 1097 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 1: It isn't the pandemic that's killing the economy. It's the 1098 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:12,400 Speaker 1: government's over zealous response that is killing the economy. The 1099 01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:15,920 Speaker 1: pandemic itself was disrupted, but Congress is being asked to 1100 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 1: help perpetuate these lockdowns. The more money we give to 1101 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:22,880 Speaker 1: the states, the more they keep us in lockdown. Every 1102 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 1: bailout dollar printed and passed out to the governors only 1103 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:31,840 Speaker 1: allows these tinpot dictators to perpetuate the lockdowns. Their rules 1104 01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 1: are arbitrary and unscientific. Governors and mayors across the country 1105 01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:41,840 Speaker 1: are picking winners and losers. Businesses, some that have been 1106 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:45,920 Speaker 1: in families for generations, are being wiped out because they're 1107 01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:49,479 Speaker 1: not allowed to open restaurants have to close their doors 1108 01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:51,760 Speaker 1: for indoor dining, but then they can till they can 1109 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 1: open at limited capacity, but then they are told they 1110 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 1: have to close again. Then they can till they can 1111 01:16:57,479 --> 01:17:00,000 Speaker 1: open outside, and then they till they can't open outside. 1112 01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:06,559 Speaker 1: Confusing doesn't even explain the half of it. Bars are 1113 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:09,000 Speaker 1: told that they can only serve alcohol people are sitting 1114 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:11,679 Speaker 1: and not standing, and only if they have heavy foods 1115 01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: on their menus. Restaurants are told they can serve outdoors, 1116 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,400 Speaker 1: then they have their permission revoked after they've sunk time 1117 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:22,439 Speaker 1: and money converting their restaurant to outdoor services, but a 1118 01:17:22,439 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 1: caterer is told they can still serve outside. Businesses are 1119 01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:30,480 Speaker 1: told they have to close at an arbitrary time determined 1120 01:17:30,520 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 1: by government officials, as though the virus only comes out 1121 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,960 Speaker 1: late at night. A business in one zip code can open, 1122 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:41,639 Speaker 1: but one in an adjoining zip code across the street 1123 01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:44,880 Speaker 1: has to close, as if the virus can't cross an 1124 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:49,600 Speaker 1: imaginary line. Airlines are allowed to fly, but hotels have 1125 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 1: to limit their occupancy, so may not have anywhere to 1126 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 1: stay when you get there. Mom and pop stores and 1127 01:17:56,560 --> 01:18:00,559 Speaker 1: specialty stores are forced to close, but big box store 1128 01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:05,719 Speaker 1: competitors are allowed to stay open. How was any business 1129 01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:14,160 Speaker 1: expected to survive? Ram Paul, Just gosh, that's wonderful. I 1130 01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,320 Speaker 1: love this story so much. Before I get to my 1131 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 1: story of running for office, because I encouraged you two 1132 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 1: earlier in the show Primary your Republican congressman. He probably 1133 01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:27,320 Speaker 1: deserves it, and I'll tell you my story about that 1134 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:34,040 Speaker 1: in a minute. Twelve year old DJ has equipment seized 1135 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 1: after a rave in the school toilets. If this guy 1136 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 1: this is from NZ Harold dot co dot NZ, I 1137 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:49,880 Speaker 1: will tell you full disclosure. As you know, I was 1138 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 1: born in Ohio, Russ Belt, Montana. At ten. We didn't 1139 01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 1: do raves, okay, in Montana, you did a kang. If 1140 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 1: you wanted to be bad, you threw a keg of 1141 01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 1: beer in the back of your car with all your buddies, 1142 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:06,120 Speaker 1: and you drove to the mountains and you had some 1143 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:08,560 Speaker 1: beer and you slept out under the stars or in 1144 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:11,479 Speaker 1: a tent, and then you drove back to town. So 1145 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm never really up on the rave thing. And since 1146 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 1: I'm not a drug guy, I don't know that i'd 1147 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 1: be a rave guy. It seems like a lot of 1148 01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 1: noise and lights and definitely a lot of people. However, 1149 01:19:25,920 --> 01:19:28,240 Speaker 1: probably a good place to pick up chicks, right Greg, 1150 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 1: if you're a young man, I would assume, I mean, 1151 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 1: I would assume whatever I know, somebody's on the right path. 1152 01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:38,280 Speaker 1: A twelve year old school boy had his djaying equipment 1153 01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 1: confiscated after teachers busted him hosting a rave for fellow 1154 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:48,120 Speaker 1: colleagues in the school bathroom. Cale Bell from Manchester held 1155 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:52,559 Speaker 1: an impromptu rave at Saint Anthony's Catholic College during a 1156 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: lunchbreak on December eleventh, fifth a legend according to his mum, 1157 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:03,400 Speaker 1: Louise Bill. The boys set out a snapchat invite to 1158 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:07,960 Speaker 1: all the boys from year eight Ohian might ending chicks. 1159 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:13,639 Speaker 1: The raven included complimentary soft drinks and Cadbury twirls as 1160 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 1: Kale showed off his turntable skills with the DJ said 1161 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:22,080 Speaker 1: the party lasted a good thirty minutes before the party 1162 01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:24,680 Speaker 1: police arrived and broke it up. What a bunch of 1163 01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:29,599 Speaker 1: fun suckers. According to the mum, Kale, speakers and lights 1164 01:20:29,640 --> 01:20:32,040 Speaker 1: have been seized. However, she decided she will not be 1165 01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:34,759 Speaker 1: punishing the Sun for putting on this event. How about 1166 01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:37,840 Speaker 1: that quote? I had to laugh, she told the mere. 1167 01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:40,000 Speaker 1: It has been a terrible year, and I couldn't be 1168 01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,280 Speaker 1: angry with my son for trying to spread some cheer. 1169 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:46,519 Speaker 1: When I got the call, it made perfect sense. According 1170 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:50,200 Speaker 1: to the mum. That weird mum, the boy had been 1171 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: up and ready for school earlier than usual and rearing 1172 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 1: to go, which she admitted wasn't quite a normal behavior 1173 01:20:56,360 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 1: for him. Quote he had the biggest smile on his face, 1174 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 1: so I knew he had something up his sleeve. I 1175 01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:04,960 Speaker 1: asked him what he was so happy about it, and 1176 01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 1: he told me they were having a rave in school. 1177 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,559 Speaker 1: I thought nothing of it. I didn't think for one 1178 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 1: minute there was any truth to it. I love this guy. 1179 01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: What an absolute stud? What a stud? You know? The 1180 01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:24,960 Speaker 1: djaying thing fascinates me. I mean they're not playing music 1181 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:29,920 Speaker 1: like because they're not playing an instrument. But I guess 1182 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:31,640 Speaker 1: I have no idea how it works at all. You know, 1183 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 1: what if you're a DJ eight seven seven three seven 1184 01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 1: seven four three seven three, or if you know how 1185 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:41,000 Speaker 1: it works, like with the turntables, it just looks like 1186 01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 1: they're they're they're touching records and moving them back and forth, 1187 01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 1: and I don't know, maybe they are making music. I 1188 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 1: don't know how. I don't know how to describe it. 1189 01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 1: I don't understand exactly what they're doing. I know I'm 1190 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:55,679 Speaker 1: making myself sound really really really old here, but I'm lost. 1191 01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 1: When it comes to the djaying thing, it looks like fun. 1192 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:02,880 Speaker 1: I bet it's what Chris, I could be a DJ 1193 01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:13,680 Speaker 1: DJ Sombrero Jesse what remember Tomorrow?

I put my money where my mouth is. 1221 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:42,919 Speaker 1: I have done it. Twenty seven years old, extremely mad 1222 01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,679 Speaker 1: about Barack Obama, decide I'm going to run for Congress. 1223 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:49,160 Speaker 1: I've never run for anything before. This is in Tucson, Arizona. 1224 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:54,000 Speaker 1: Then I take off and I'm running. Then I'm going 1225 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:57,599 Speaker 1: to every single event you can possibly go to. I'm 1226 01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:01,759 Speaker 1: gone all the time. Every Republican Women's meeting, every pancake breakfast, everything, 1227 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:04,439 Speaker 1: everything at the American legion, you name it, I'm there. 1228 01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 1: If it's a public event, I'm there. I'm six foot eight, 1229 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 1: so I'm sticking out like a sore thumb, and I'm there, 1230 01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:12,080 Speaker 1: and I'm running hard and running hard, running hard. And 1231 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: finally the GOP establishment decides this is a winnable race 1232 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 1: and they're gonna throw in their guy against me. And 1233 01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:25,680 Speaker 1: that's a rough moment when that day comes. I'm not 1234 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 1: telling you that day won't be rough for you. I'll 1235 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 1: tell you how I dealt with it. In a second plus, 1236 01:25:33,200 --> 01:26:05,640 Speaker 1: which vehicle gets the most the UIs hang on the 1237 01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:34,040 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Show. This is the Jesse Kelly Show. What 1238 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:38,599 Speaker 1: took so long? What took so long is because we 1239 01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:43,160 Speaker 1: could not get our Republican colleagues to crush the virus. 1240 01:26:43,840 --> 01:26:47,559 Speaker 1: I couldn't understand it. Why would they not want to 1241 01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:51,760 Speaker 1: invest in the science that has told us so importantly 1242 01:26:52,120 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 1: that it required testing, tracing, treatment, separation, sanitation, and the rest. Well, 1243 01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:08,559 Speaker 1: I mean, oh, that's a lie. McConnell did come out 1244 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,280 Speaker 1: in McConnell's defense, he did come out and respond. He 1245 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 1: said this. I said back in July, what the country 1246 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:21,160 Speaker 1: needed was a package roughly a trillion dollars focused on 1247 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:28,799 Speaker 1: kids in school, small businesses, healthcare providers, and direct cash 1248 01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 1: payments started advocating that in July and August. The talks 1249 01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:36,880 Speaker 1: were unproductive, so I es centrally put that bill on 1250 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,520 Speaker 1: the floor of the Senate. In both September and October. 1251 01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:44,800 Speaker 1: Not a single Democrat supported it. Their view was give 1252 01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 1: us everything we want, or we won't give you anything. Well, 1253 01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:52,320 Speaker 1: so it's noteworthy that at the end they finally gave 1254 01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:55,639 Speaker 1: us what we could have agreed to back in July. 1255 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:02,559 Speaker 1: What's hilarious is are tragic or awful, depending on which 1256 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:04,559 Speaker 1: way you want to look at it. I choose to laugh. 1257 01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 1: Is this is all about theater, and this is all 1258 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 1: about elections. This is if you're the type of person 1259 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:21,759 Speaker 1: at this point who still trusts the government. Your parents 1260 01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:25,599 Speaker 1: failed you. I know that's a little harsh, but your 1261 01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:28,679 Speaker 1: parents failed you. If at this point you're looking around 1262 01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:31,040 Speaker 1: and you think, I'm sure the government will work it out. 1263 01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:38,760 Speaker 1: These people don't care about you. They don't care about you. 1264 01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:42,200 Speaker 1: They don't we want them too, right, And I hope 1265 01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:45,080 Speaker 1: when you run for office you you will care. But 1266 01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 1: they don't. All right, So I'm running for office for 1267 01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:50,880 Speaker 1: a while this is back in Arizona. I'm running for 1268 01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:53,760 Speaker 1: office against Gabrielle Gifford. She's this I think two term 1269 01:28:53,800 --> 01:28:57,160 Speaker 1: in comment if I remember right, and the race starts 1270 01:28:57,160 --> 01:28:59,120 Speaker 1: to look more and more winnable because this was the 1271 01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:05,200 Speaker 1: Tea Party year. There's this state senator in my area. 1272 01:29:05,240 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 1: Remember I'd never been elected. Nobody knew me, but I'd 1273 01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:09,599 Speaker 1: been running for a while. I was starting to gain 1274 01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:14,519 Speaker 1: some traction. I was, as you can imagine, very direct. 1275 01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:17,719 Speaker 1: I guess we'd probably put it that way, very direct. 1276 01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:24,280 Speaker 1: I could give a good speech, um far right of 1277 01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:28,719 Speaker 1: the district. I am way right of most people, so 1278 01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:31,080 Speaker 1: I was far far right of the district. I mean 1279 01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,120 Speaker 1: they would ask me and I would flat out and say, oh, 1280 01:29:33,160 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 1: I think we needed to abolish the Department of Education 1281 01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:39,840 Speaker 1: without as I would just tell people that. So they 1282 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:44,200 Speaker 1: choose this state senator. The Republican Party chooses this state senator. 1283 01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:46,200 Speaker 1: His name's Jonathan Payton. He's not a bad guy at all, 1284 01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:47,760 Speaker 1: by the way, don't be sending him hate may or 1285 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:50,479 Speaker 1: something like that. But they choose this state senator to 1286 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:54,400 Speaker 1: run him against me, and my biggest challenge, and it 1287 01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:57,120 Speaker 1: will be your biggest challenge if you choose, and you're 1288 01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,280 Speaker 1: a newcomer if you choose to run for office. Was 1289 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:03,719 Speaker 1: raising money, and ignore all the Internet idiots. The money 1290 01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:06,559 Speaker 1: shouldn't matter, okay, yeah, and it should rain, you know, 1291 01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:11,599 Speaker 1: skittles in cheerios. Money matters a lot in politics. It 1292 01:30:11,640 --> 01:30:14,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what your message is if you can't afford 1293 01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:18,839 Speaker 1: to put your message on TV, in mailers, on the internet, 1294 01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:21,479 Speaker 1: if no one knows your message, what difference does it make. 1295 01:30:21,680 --> 01:30:23,759 Speaker 1: You can have all the greatest ideas in the world 1296 01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:26,960 Speaker 1: if you're hiding in a cave in Nepal. That doesn't 1297 01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:29,559 Speaker 1: help us out at all, now, does it. You have 1298 01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:32,519 Speaker 1: to be able to get your message out there. Money 1299 01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:36,720 Speaker 1: matters a lot, and we were raising okay money, but 1300 01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:41,040 Speaker 1: not a lot because the huge donors, the big GOP 1301 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:44,320 Speaker 1: donors in the area, were waiting to see if the 1302 01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:47,519 Speaker 1: GOP establishment would put their own candidate in me because 1303 01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:49,800 Speaker 1: I was far right of all them too. I mean, 1304 01:30:49,840 --> 01:30:55,120 Speaker 1: I'm a huge immigration hawk and GOP donors love illegal immigration. 1305 01:30:55,840 --> 01:30:58,559 Speaker 1: Why do you think half the GOP won't ever back 1306 01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:03,160 Speaker 1: real border reforms anyway, That's another story entirely, and I 1307 01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:05,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't cave on that, and I tried to get me 1308 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 1: to cave on that, and I told him go screw themselves. 1309 01:31:07,640 --> 01:31:10,760 Speaker 1: And that didn't win me any friends either, And now 1310 01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:12,880 Speaker 1: they run Jonathan Payton against me, and I think by 1311 01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:16,439 Speaker 1: this point in time we had raised three hundred thousand 1312 01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 1: dollars something like that. That may be wrong, but I've 1313 01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:20,920 Speaker 1: been running for a while. Four or five six months 1314 01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:23,040 Speaker 1: we raised three hundred grand, which I thought was amazing. 1315 01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:25,639 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm keeping the lights on, putting some mailers 1316 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 1: out there trying to get by. And Jonathan Peyton jumps 1317 01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:34,559 Speaker 1: in the race, has one fundraiser with all the GOP 1318 01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 1: donors on one event, some fancy thing at some guy's house, 1319 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 1: six hundred thousand dollars in one night. And we're looking around, 1320 01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:46,880 Speaker 1: and believe me, my staff, I mean, I mean, we 1321 01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:49,600 Speaker 1: were mostly volunteers. I ran a very lean campaign. I 1322 01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:51,040 Speaker 1: just I didn't have the money to blow on a 1323 01:31:51,040 --> 01:31:53,599 Speaker 1: bunch of staffs and advisors and stuff like that. We're 1324 01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,120 Speaker 1: looking around at ourselves as soon as we get worried 1325 01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:58,040 Speaker 1: about what they raised the night before, we're looking at 1326 01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:01,880 Speaker 1: our own account and we're thinking, well, this is not ideal. 1327 01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:06,560 Speaker 1: This is not ideal, this is a brush. It is 1328 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 1: not good. However, I told them all, we're not stopping, 1329 01:32:11,600 --> 01:32:15,439 Speaker 1: we're not quitting. Screw them, screw their money, and we'll 1330 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:19,160 Speaker 1: destroy this guy. Bring it on, wait till the debates. Wait, 1331 01:32:19,200 --> 01:32:21,360 Speaker 1: we'll keep just keep it on, keeping on. It's all 1332 01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:26,400 Speaker 1: you can do, right, keep on, keeping on. And one 1333 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 1: of my guys who worked on my campaign, I'm not 1334 01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:32,439 Speaker 1: gonna tell you his name, one of my guys, lets 1335 01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:35,960 Speaker 1: me know. He said, you understand now that you're getting 1336 01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:38,639 Speaker 1: enough traction, because I was. I was getting real traction 1337 01:32:38,760 --> 01:32:40,960 Speaker 1: out there this one. We were neck and neck at 1338 01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:42,640 Speaker 1: this point, Jonathan Peyton and I and there was some 1339 01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:45,200 Speaker 1: other idiot who got in, but he didn't matter. Peyton 1340 01:32:45,200 --> 01:32:47,800 Speaker 1: and I were neck and neck. I'm starting to get 1341 01:32:47,840 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 1: real traction. And my guy that he's one of these 1342 01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:54,800 Speaker 1: salty old dogs who'd seen everything and done everything in politics. 1343 01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,280 Speaker 1: He tells me, you know, they're gonna try to bribe 1344 01:32:58,320 --> 01:33:01,040 Speaker 1: you out of the race, right, And I said, what 1345 01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:05,160 Speaker 1: do you mean, bribe me? He said, yeah, somebody's going 1346 01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:09,840 Speaker 1: to call you and sit down with you, maybe maybe 1347 01:33:09,840 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 1: to be over the phone. And what they're going to 1348 01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:14,800 Speaker 1: do is they're going to tell you, well, they'll be 1349 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 1: very nice they'll tell you all very impressed by you. 1350 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:21,719 Speaker 1: We think, we really really think you have a bright future. 1351 01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:24,719 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows you could be governor one day. 1352 01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:28,479 Speaker 1: What I think you should do, though, is drop out 1353 01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,760 Speaker 1: of this race right here, you know, just sit up, 1354 01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:36,679 Speaker 1: step out of the race. We'll back you for this 1355 01:33:36,840 --> 01:33:39,679 Speaker 1: lesser race, you know, a state house seat, maybe city 1356 01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:43,800 Speaker 1: council something like that. You step aside now. We will 1357 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:46,680 Speaker 1: fund your other race later because you have such a 1358 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:51,839 Speaker 1: bright future. And this is how I mean. I wasn't naive, 1359 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:54,680 Speaker 1: but I was naive enough that I didn't actually know 1360 01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:57,200 Speaker 1: when the call came. Because sure enough, a couple of 1361 01:33:57,200 --> 01:33:59,640 Speaker 1: weeks later, after he'd had this conversation, I get a 1362 01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 1: phone call some guy I kind of knew from Phoenix. 1363 01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:06,240 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you his name either, and he's 1364 01:34:06,280 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 1: telling me, oh, man, you're really really doing great. He's 1365 01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 1: telling me verbatim what I was warned if I was 1366 01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:14,599 Speaker 1: gonna say. And he said, and um, these guys, there's 1367 01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:17,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of these guys out there. They they really 1368 01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:19,920 Speaker 1: want you to run for some other race, and they're 1369 01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:21,640 Speaker 1: gonna back you fully, and they think you have a 1370 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:24,080 Speaker 1: bright future. He's giving me a verbatim what I'd been told. 1371 01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:29,719 Speaker 1: And because I knew this guy, I guess that wasn't 1372 01:34:29,840 --> 01:34:33,080 Speaker 1: looking for it from him. I didn't realize that was 1373 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:35,920 Speaker 1: the bribery call. I hang up the phone. I call 1374 01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:38,760 Speaker 1: the salty old campaign campaign advisor of mine and I 1375 01:34:38,800 --> 01:34:41,559 Speaker 1: tell him, Hey, guess what, man, They're gonna try to 1376 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,640 Speaker 1: bribe me. My buddy just called and told me about it. 1377 01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:50,639 Speaker 1: And he said, yeah, that was the bribery call. They 1378 01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 1: use your friend if they can. That was the call. 1379 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:57,240 Speaker 1: And he said, what did you tell him? And I said, well, 1380 01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:01,559 Speaker 1: I guess I would have been more tactful if I 1381 01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:04,400 Speaker 1: had to do that over again. I laughed and told 1382 01:35:04,479 --> 01:35:06,880 Speaker 1: him that they can screw off, and I'm gonna tell 1383 01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:12,959 Speaker 1: him that when they call. So he carried that message 1384 01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:15,840 Speaker 1: on back to the powers that be and it took 1385 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:18,559 Speaker 1: it took some time for that kind of healing. Yeah, 1386 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:20,840 Speaker 1: it took some time to get some healing there they were. 1387 01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:24,920 Speaker 1: They ended up being ended up being a little salty 1388 01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:30,120 Speaker 1: about that. Ended up being a little salty about that. However, 1389 01:35:31,479 --> 01:35:34,240 Speaker 1: I did win my primary. I did stomp him into 1390 01:35:34,280 --> 01:35:38,599 Speaker 1: the ground. We lost by four thousand votes to Gabrielle Gifford's. 1391 01:35:39,640 --> 01:35:43,040 Speaker 1: But it was worth it and I did it, and 1392 01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:45,720 Speaker 1: you need to do it too. It's time you need 1393 01:35:45,760 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 1: to do it, all right. Which vehicle gets the most DUIs?

Now I'm reading the article because 1443 01:39:51,520 --> 01:39:54,080 Speaker 1: I want to know the details. You just gave me 1444 01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:57,519 Speaker 1: what five six sentences in the open paragraph about how 1445 01:39:57,640 --> 01:40:00,120 Speaker 1: terrible it is to drive drunk. Buddy, I know that 1446 01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:02,479 Speaker 1: I'm already going into the article. For one, I don't 1447 01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:06,400 Speaker 1: need an opening paragraph lecture about driving drunk. I get that. Two, 1448 01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:09,960 Speaker 1: I could have had one sentence on how you got 1449 01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:13,240 Speaker 1: this information. Instead, you drowned me with another four or 1450 01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:17,200 Speaker 1: five sentences. I'm still I'm now on paragraph number three, 1451 01:40:17,320 --> 01:40:20,519 Speaker 1: and I'm still not to the point, Get to the point, 1452 01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:24,160 Speaker 1: Give me the meat. People make this mistake when they 1453 01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:30,880 Speaker 1: tell stories all the time. All the time, they're they're 1454 01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:34,240 Speaker 1: constantly worried about what people think of them, or trying 1455 01:40:34,280 --> 01:40:36,519 Speaker 1: to trying to make sure that they're they have some 1456 01:40:36,600 --> 01:40:40,479 Speaker 1: kind of moral ground to stand on, whatever the story 1457 01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:44,439 Speaker 1: consists of. So you'll get people. They'll tell you stories like, oh, 1458 01:40:44,520 --> 01:40:46,080 Speaker 1: did I tell you what happened at my mother in 1459 01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:48,800 Speaker 1: laws last night?

And I mean, obviously that's a great hook, right, Oh, 1461 01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: I'm dying to know what happened. Someone fart at dinner, Like, 1462 01:40:53,400 --> 01:40:56,000 Speaker 1: tell me what happened at your mother in laws last night? Well, 1463 01:40:56,040 --> 01:40:58,360 Speaker 1: first of all, we had to go over there. I 1464 01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:01,519 Speaker 1: don't love going over there. I only went over there 1465 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:04,920 Speaker 1: this time because the wife really wanted me to. I mean, 1466 01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:07,160 Speaker 1: I haven't been over there for for Oh my gosh, 1467 01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:11,200 Speaker 1: Just tell me what happened last night. People do this 1468 01:41:11,240 --> 01:41:15,400 Speaker 1: stuff all the time because they're uncertain of themselves. People 1469 01:41:15,640 --> 01:41:20,320 Speaker 1: really really lack self confidence. Tell me the story, give 1470 01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 1: me the meat. If I want more details, I'll ask 1471 01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:29,240 Speaker 1: throw some in along the way. I don't know why 1472 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 1: I got off on that side tangient. It drives me 1473 01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:34,240 Speaker 1: crazy when people do it, though, drives me nuts. The 1474 01:41:34,320 --> 01:41:37,680 Speaker 1: trucks on the list consist of Band're all Trucks, RAM 1475 01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:40,800 Speaker 1: twenty five, Chevy S ten Wait that s tens, the 1476 01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:44,080 Speaker 1: small Chevy right Chris is a Smallman, Dodge, Dakota, Ford Ranger, 1477 01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 1: Chevy Silverado, and GMC Sierra. The RAM ranks first of 1478 01:41:48,240 --> 01:41:51,360 Speaker 1: all vehicles was an average of forty five point three 1479 01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:55,160 Speaker 1: drivers with a dui for every thousand drivers applying for 1480 01:41:55,160 --> 01:41:59,080 Speaker 1: the insurance policy. The luxury segment also has its place 1481 01:41:59,160 --> 01:42:02,760 Speaker 1: on the chart, as the BMW four series. Not surprising, 1482 01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:07,639 Speaker 1: Audie four and BMW seven series all make appearances somewhere 1483 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:15,880 Speaker 1: in the list. Interestingly, the Subaru WRX finds its place 1484 01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:18,479 Speaker 1: in the list that actually surprises me. I can see 1485 01:42:18,479 --> 01:42:21,320 Speaker 1: a RAM twenty five hundred guy getting a dui. Let's 1486 01:42:21,320 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 1: be honest, not insulting you in your Dodge Ram, but 1487 01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:32,280 Speaker 1: I just assume you're hammered anyway, BMW guy. Nobody's surprised 1488 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:37,559 Speaker 1: about BMW guy getting a dui. He just went out 1489 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:41,519 Speaker 1: and had ninety cosmos with his friend. What Chris and 1490 01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:46,599 Speaker 1: now after failing to hit on the waitress appropriately. Now 1491 01:42:46,600 --> 01:42:50,120 Speaker 1: he's spinning tires out of the Ritzy Club on his 1492 01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:54,000 Speaker 1: way home, where he'll inevitably get pulled over by the 1493 01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:57,320 Speaker 1: cop and then dropped the do you know who I am? 1494 01:42:57,479 --> 01:43:01,240 Speaker 1: Lyne to the police officer. We all know that BMW guy. 1495 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:11,000 Speaker 1: Everybody knows. Remember tomorrow's and ask doctor Jesse Wednesday. The 1496 01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:17,759 Speaker 1: plan for tomorrow is a very dark part of history. 1497 01:43:18,080 --> 01:43:23,160 Speaker 1: Many people don't know about it. It is duck. That's 1498 01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,080 Speaker 1: just a little disclaimer. So prepare yourself for tomorrow, or 1499 01:43:26,160 --> 01:43:29,200 Speaker 1: if you can't handle that sort of thing, maybe skip 1500 01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:33,040 Speaker 1: tomorrow's show. But once that part is done, if you 1501 01:43:33,120 --> 01:43:36,120 Speaker 1: manage to get through that part, once that part is finished, 1502 01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:40,439 Speaker 1: we're gonna do an ask Doctor Jesse Wednesday because it's 1503 01:43:40,479 --> 01:43:45,080 Speaker 1: my last show of the year. So Jesse at Jesse 1504 01:43:45,200 --> 01:43:49,200 Speaker 1: Kelly Show dot com, Jesse at Jesse Kelly Show dot com, 1505 01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:53,160 Speaker 1: or hear me out here. You can call. If we're 1506 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:57,840 Speaker 1: not here, leave a voicemail. We'll play the voicemail on 1507 01:43:58,000 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 1: the show. We will. We will eight seven seven three 1508 01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:06,719 Speaker 1: seven seven four three seven three eight seven seven three 1509 01:44:06,840 --> 01:44:09,920 Speaker 1: seven seven four three seven three. We have had some 1510 01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:14,439 Speaker 1: hilarious voicemails Who's that what old guy called in just 1511 01:44:14,720 --> 01:44:18,759 Speaker 1: hammer House. Chris, Gosh, he was the best. He sounded 1512 01:44:18,800 --> 01:44:21,200 Speaker 1: like he was nine thousand years old. And he went 1513 01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:23,120 Speaker 1: on and on and on for like twenty minutes in 1514 01:44:23,160 --> 01:44:26,120 Speaker 1: the voicemail. So we had to edit it down. And yeah, 1515 01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:27,920 Speaker 1: Chris had to throw some beeps in there. I'm not 1516 01:44:27,960 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 1: gonna lie. He was probably a few butt heavy steep, 1517 01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:34,840 Speaker 1: a few bet heavy steep. All right, focus out here. 1518 01:44:37,600 --> 01:44:43,280 Speaker 1: Australia detects a new UK strain. Hong Kong and India 1519 01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:51,320 Speaker 1: cancel Britain flights. As I've said a thousand times, we 1520 01:44:51,520 --> 01:44:56,640 Speaker 1: can't stop moving every time something new pops up with coronavirus, 1521 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:59,880 Speaker 1: or we're never gonna move again, or we'll just fall 1522 01:45:00,120 --> 01:45:03,759 Speaker 1: so deeply into bankruptcy that we're just gonna be finished. Anyway. 1523 01:45:04,240 --> 01:45:06,639 Speaker 1: We can't keep doing this. And this is what this 1524 01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:08,840 Speaker 1: is what they're going to keep doing here. Every cold 1525 01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 1: and flu season, everyone's gonna go home because it's cold. 1526 01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:15,280 Speaker 1: They're gonna go inside breathe the same recirculated air. More 1527 01:45:15,280 --> 01:45:17,400 Speaker 1: people are going to get it. And every cold and 1528 01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:19,920 Speaker 1: flu season they got well, we gotta shut down again 1529 01:45:20,240 --> 01:45:23,200 Speaker 1: until there are no restaurants left until there are no 1530 01:45:23,280 --> 01:45:28,439 Speaker 1: airlines left. We can't keep doing this. And the most 1531 01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:33,960 Speaker 1: difficult part about that is this. Now we're not changing 1532 01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:39,880 Speaker 1: a policy. Now we're changing a mentality. The mentality that 1533 01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:44,120 Speaker 1: we have cemented in the Western world is, oh, there's 1534 01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:50,360 Speaker 1: an outbreak, shutdown. Oh there's a new strange shutdown. Oh 1535 01:45:50,439 --> 01:45:52,879 Speaker 1: wait a minute, a bunch of people are infected here. Shutdown. 1536 01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:58,680 Speaker 1: That has to change. It has to change. If we 1537 01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:02,679 Speaker 1: don't change that mentality, there's not going to be anything left. 1538 01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:07,639 Speaker 1: I am sorry that more that people fell for this 1539 01:46:07,760 --> 01:46:12,880 Speaker 1: absurd notion that you stop moving when a virus breaks out. 1540 01:46:13,040 --> 01:46:16,719 Speaker 1: It is an absurd notion. And as you know, I've 1541 01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:19,240 Speaker 1: said several times, if you're a doctor who pushed for 1542 01:46:19,320 --> 01:46:21,439 Speaker 1: one of those, I think you should lose your medical license. 1543 01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm not kidding. They have been that damaging, not just 1544 01:46:25,280 --> 01:46:28,320 Speaker 1: to the economy, to the whole health of the people 1545 01:46:28,320 --> 01:46:31,639 Speaker 1: of this nation. They've been that damaging. But you've got 1546 01:46:31,640 --> 01:46:34,560 Speaker 1: to change our mentality.

Apparently there's a little international flap. Why 1569 01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:36,400 Speaker 1: would they do such a thing. Hey, Jesse, thanks again 1570 01:48:36,479 --> 01:48:38,559 Speaker 1: for having me on like always in Merry Christmas to 1571 01:48:38,560 --> 01:48:42,320 Speaker 1: you before I even forget. But you know what Russia 1572 01:48:42,400 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 1: is all about territory. Yeah, it's very strange to me 1573 01:48:45,200 --> 01:48:47,160 Speaker 1: in this day and age, Like look at Syria. You know, 1574 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:51,519 Speaker 1: it's like I keep asking myself, why would Russia want 1575 01:48:51,560 --> 01:48:55,400 Speaker 1: to embroil themselves in the pit of Syria. You know, 1576 01:48:55,439 --> 01:48:57,160 Speaker 1: it's like it's this like this time, it's like this 1577 01:48:57,320 --> 01:49:01,040 Speaker 1: waste land, right, just build with sand and rubble and 1578 01:49:01,280 --> 01:49:04,840 Speaker 1: pissed off Jihadis. And yet Russia is obsessed with getting 1579 01:49:04,880 --> 01:49:06,880 Speaker 1: their foot in the door. And I remember, like when 1580 01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:10,120 Speaker 1: they were battling over Syria and all the Liberals kept 1581 01:49:10,160 --> 01:49:13,040 Speaker 1: saying to me, but b K, don't you understand if 1582 01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:16,000 Speaker 1: we leave Syria, then Russia is gonna have Syria. And 1583 01:49:16,080 --> 01:49:21,559 Speaker 1: I'm like, and let them have it. I don't care, 1584 01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, but it's very bizarre, but they do. They 1585 01:49:24,320 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 1: do really like that physical possession of land. The same 1586 01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:30,479 Speaker 1: reason you know they try to annex Crimea and everything 1587 01:49:30,520 --> 01:49:32,559 Speaker 1: else in China, I think is the same way. China 1588 01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:37,280 Speaker 1: is obsessed with becoming the big Khuna on the world 1589 01:49:37,400 --> 01:49:40,040 Speaker 1: stage and usurping us, not only with their land, but 1590 01:49:40,080 --> 01:49:42,439 Speaker 1: with their currency. So yeah, we'll definitely keep an eye 1591 01:49:42,439 --> 01:49:45,160 Speaker 1: on that one. Yeah. China, I understand, because they have 1592 01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:49,200 Speaker 1: so many people, and they're actually not exactly resource rich 1593 01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:52,759 Speaker 1: in their country. They're people rich' not resource rich. And 1594 01:49:53,400 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 1: Russia confuses me though. I understand there's no limit to 1595 01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:59,280 Speaker 1: the greed of man. But if you're Russia, the one 1596 01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:02,799 Speaker 1: thing you don't really need is more land. You actually 1597 01:50:02,840 --> 01:50:06,320 Speaker 1: need more people. They have no population growth, It's completely stagnant. 1598 01:50:06,520 --> 01:50:11,320 Speaker 1: What what is Syria add your your empires humongous? Yeah, 1599 01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:15,439 Speaker 1: it really baffles me. It's funny you mentioned that people 1600 01:50:15,479 --> 01:50:20,200 Speaker 1: have no idea the visceral hatred that exists between those 1601 01:50:20,520 --> 01:50:25,840 Speaker 1: you know, Southeast Asian countries like you know, China, Korea, Japan. Boy, 1602 01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,280 Speaker 1: you talk to some of those older Japanese people, those 1603 01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:31,880 Speaker 1: older Korean people, there's some long memories of the you know, 1604 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:33,600 Speaker 1: the back in the forties and all the things that 1605 01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:36,040 Speaker 1: happened there. So there's no love lost between any of 1606 01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:39,400 Speaker 1: those countries. What are you talking about. I thought Japan 1607 01:50:39,439 --> 01:50:45,200 Speaker 1: and China have always gotten along. Yeah, yeah, yeah, go google, 1608 01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:48,360 Speaker 1: you know, the rape of Nan King and among other things, 1609 01:50:48,360 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 1: and there's some actually there's a there's a new movie 1610 01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:54,200 Speaker 1: coming out I believe about the h the Japanese and 1611 01:50:54,240 --> 01:50:56,639 Speaker 1: the Chinese fighting each other. Like I said, no love 1612 01:50:56,680 --> 01:50:59,519 Speaker 1: loss there at all. Jesse. Okay, what are the other 1613 01:50:59,640 --> 01:51:02,840 Speaker 1: rival reason Southeast Asia? We don't know about because people 1614 01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:06,120 Speaker 1: would think about I mean geographically, people don't think that 1615 01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:09,040 Speaker 1: much about it all. Vietnam, Thailand. This is all just 1616 01:51:09,120 --> 01:51:11,920 Speaker 1: one gigantic place over there. Is there one of those 1617 01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:14,840 Speaker 1: that we should actually watch? Well, it kind of depends 1618 01:51:14,840 --> 01:51:17,559 Speaker 1: on what you consider Southeast Asia. But you know, as 1619 01:51:17,600 --> 01:51:20,880 Speaker 1: you and I have discussed before, I'm really fascinated with 1620 01:51:21,240 --> 01:51:26,920 Speaker 1: the Chinese Indian battle, you know along that high border 1621 01:51:26,960 --> 01:51:28,519 Speaker 1: where they're you know, they go up there and they 1622 01:51:28,640 --> 01:51:31,200 Speaker 1: strip their shirts down and they like beat each other 1623 01:51:31,280 --> 01:51:34,040 Speaker 1: senseless at like twelve thousand feet because there's some kind 1624 01:51:34,040 --> 01:51:37,720 Speaker 1: of honor code where they don't use weapons. I'm fascinated 1625 01:51:37,760 --> 01:51:39,719 Speaker 1: by that. I would love to get some camera crews 1626 01:51:39,800 --> 01:51:42,320 Speaker 1: up there and actually take a look at that, Jesse. 1627 01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:46,000 Speaker 1: But you know, it's funny because I've been more focused 1628 01:51:46,040 --> 01:51:50,160 Speaker 1: on like the coming away from the international events. I'm 1629 01:51:50,160 --> 01:51:54,920 Speaker 1: sure you've looked at this whack omnibus spending bill that 1630 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:56,880 Speaker 1: just came out and it's like, man, dude, I have 1631 01:51:56,960 --> 01:52:00,080 Speaker 1: such contempt for our federal government at this point. Like it, 1632 01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:02,439 Speaker 1: it's really enraging to me as I see all these 1633 01:52:02,479 --> 01:52:05,879 Speaker 1: people in California, by the way, going out of business, 1634 01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:10,519 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom corrupts Gavin Newsom and sitting there saying week oh, yeah, 1635 01:52:10,560 --> 01:52:13,000 Speaker 1: we're definitely going to spend our lockdown order. I mean, 1636 01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:15,559 Speaker 1: it's really shocking to me at this point. I can't 1637 01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:19,000 Speaker 1: believe actually people aren't out in the streets yet. Are 1638 01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:20,800 Speaker 1: they going to be out in the streets? I mean, 1639 01:52:20,840 --> 01:52:23,360 Speaker 1: do people? I understand they're mad right now and their 1640 01:52:23,920 --> 01:52:26,719 Speaker 1: internet mad. I was actually asking Lizz Wheeler about this earlier. 1641 01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:30,320 Speaker 1: Are we seeing rage we haven't seen before? Or is 1642 01:52:30,320 --> 01:52:33,559 Speaker 1: this the standard impotent twenty four hour rage that gets 1643 01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:37,160 Speaker 1: forgotten about and then that's gone right? Yeah, you know 1644 01:52:37,280 --> 01:52:40,320 Speaker 1: the thing is, Jesse, what blows my mind? I mean, 1645 01:52:40,400 --> 01:52:45,080 Speaker 1: have you seen one national newscast talking about Gavin Newsom 1646 01:52:45,120 --> 01:52:50,479 Speaker 1: and our historic multibillion dollar unemployment fraud. You haven't seen one, 1647 01:52:50,560 --> 01:52:54,920 Speaker 1: have you? They refuse to talk about it, Jesse. This 1648 01:52:55,040 --> 01:53:00,320 Speaker 1: buffoon in Sacramento let his unemployment department hand out five 1649 01:53:00,479 --> 01:53:05,040 Speaker 1: billion dollars to death row inmates and Los Angeles gang 1650 01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:09,880 Speaker 1: members and that doesn't make a nationwide news content broadcast. 1651 01:53:10,200 --> 01:53:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it's shocking to me. Instead, they're still talking 1652 01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:17,240 Speaker 1: about stupid Trump when my tax money just got sucked 1653 01:53:17,280 --> 01:53:19,599 Speaker 1: out of the bank accounts and it's going to people 1654 01:53:19,600 --> 01:53:23,320 Speaker 1: who put down names like Daffy Duck and Diane Feinstein 1655 01:53:23,600 --> 01:53:27,599 Speaker 1: under unemployment application and it doesn't even make the news 1656 01:53:27,880 --> 01:53:32,599 Speaker 1: because Gavin Newsom, stupid, buffoonish Gavin Newsom is the golden 1657 01:53:32,680 --> 01:53:36,760 Speaker 1: boy of democratic politics. It honestly, I'm very this is 1658 01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:39,920 Speaker 1: not an act for you people listening. I'm genuinely angry 1659 01:53:39,920 --> 01:53:42,599 Speaker 1: about it. And it just goes to show you our 1660 01:53:42,840 --> 01:53:46,560 Speaker 1: media is hopelessly broken. I hope they all go bankrupt. 1661 01:53:46,920 --> 01:53:51,320 Speaker 1: Stupid Jake Tapper can't spare five minutes to talk about 1662 01:53:51,520 --> 01:53:54,080 Speaker 1: the hundreds of thousands of people going out of work, 1663 01:53:54,240 --> 01:53:57,839 Speaker 1: but he'll have some stupid resistance doctor up there scolding 1664 01:53:57,840 --> 01:54:00,719 Speaker 1: you for not wearing a mask outside Jesse. It really, 1665 01:54:01,400 --> 01:54:04,759 Speaker 1: I'm serious. I get very worked up and genuinely angry 1666 01:54:04,760 --> 01:54:09,440 Speaker 1: at this. Okay, why death row inmates? Was this corruption? 1667 01:54:09,680 --> 01:54:13,120 Speaker 1: Is this incompetence? What? I'm confused? What the anger is here. 1668 01:54:13,920 --> 01:54:16,800 Speaker 1: So what they do is they basically have like agreements, 1669 01:54:16,960 --> 01:54:20,479 Speaker 1: especially and a lot of this is gang related. You know, honestly, 1670 01:54:20,560 --> 01:54:23,400 Speaker 1: it's too bad these gang members chose a life of crime, Jesse, 1671 01:54:23,560 --> 01:54:28,480 Speaker 1: because really they're pretty they're actually pretty smart. But basically 1672 01:54:28,520 --> 01:54:30,960 Speaker 1: they have their boys inside and they use their names 1673 01:54:31,240 --> 01:54:35,560 Speaker 1: of Infamously, Scott Peterson, the death row inmate who killed 1674 01:54:35,600 --> 01:54:38,000 Speaker 1: his wife an unborn baby and is sitting on death row. 1675 01:54:38,320 --> 01:54:42,920 Speaker 1: He got unemployment benefits because California doesn't have a system 1676 01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:46,640 Speaker 1: like almost every other state does that automatically cross checks 1677 01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:50,360 Speaker 1: a name in the unemployment system with a name in 1678 01:54:50,400 --> 01:54:53,240 Speaker 1: the Department of Correction system. You know why we don't 1679 01:54:53,240 --> 01:54:57,960 Speaker 1: have that system, Jesse, because stupid Gavin Newsom purposely didn't 1680 01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:02,000 Speaker 1: install that system because he was really deeply concerned about 1681 01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:04,560 Speaker 1: the privacy rights of prisoners. And no, I'm not making 1682 01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:07,000 Speaker 1: that up. He actually, to his credit, he came out 1683 01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:10,040 Speaker 1: and said that publicly, that's what kind of lunatics we're 1684 01:55:10,080 --> 01:55:12,480 Speaker 1: sitting here dealing with. And don't get me started on 1685 01:55:12,640 --> 01:55:17,720 Speaker 1: that insane new District Attorney for Los Angeles George Casco, 1686 01:55:17,760 --> 01:55:19,640 Speaker 1: and I had a long rant on him on last 1687 01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:22,280 Speaker 1: week's podcast. I suggest that people go listen to it. 1688 01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:25,920 Speaker 1: He is certifiably completely insane. Can you give us the 1689 01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:27,960 Speaker 1: one minute version as we're about out a time, and 1690 01:55:27,960 --> 01:55:31,680 Speaker 1: then people go listen to his podcast. Yeah. Basically, Los 1691 01:55:31,720 --> 01:55:34,600 Speaker 1: Angeles has chosen as their new district attorney a man 1692 01:55:34,920 --> 01:55:38,360 Speaker 1: who wanted to strike out all special enhancements, which means 1693 01:55:38,360 --> 01:55:41,520 Speaker 1: like great bodily injury. So if you beat a child 1694 01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:44,640 Speaker 1: and that child sustains great head injuries, which there is 1695 01:55:44,640 --> 01:55:47,960 Speaker 1: a specific case, he wanted to get rid of those enhancements. 1696 01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:50,400 Speaker 1: He wanted to get rid of the gang enhancements. He 1697 01:55:50,960 --> 01:55:54,480 Speaker 1: doesn't want any obviously death penalty. He got rid of 1698 01:55:54,560 --> 01:55:58,839 Speaker 1: three strikes. He is completely nuts. The man lies awake 1699 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:03,600 Speaker 1: Jesse at night, upset, crying himself to sleep because violent 1700 01:56:03,640 --> 01:56:06,360 Speaker 1: gang members and child rapists have to go to jail. 1701 01:56:06,520 --> 01:56:09,240 Speaker 1: And that's who the people of Los Angeles have chosen 1702 01:56:09,480 --> 01:56:11,880 Speaker 1: to a less for their district attorney. And part of me, 1703 01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, and I'm sure you agree, Hey, that's what 1704 01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:15,480 Speaker 1: they voted for. Let him have it, good and heart, 1705 01:56:15,680 --> 01:56:18,680 Speaker 1: but people, good people are going to hurt because of 1706 01:56:18,720 --> 01:56:22,000 Speaker 1: this man. He needs to be stopped. Is California just 1707 01:56:22,080 --> 01:56:24,360 Speaker 1: we only got about thirty seconds. Are they really that 1708 01:56:24,640 --> 01:56:27,600 Speaker 1: nuts left or are they just Democrats and Democrats are 1709 01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:32,120 Speaker 1: nominating nutballs. I think they're just Democrats, And I think everybody, 1710 01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:35,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people here I hate to blame, and honestly, 1711 01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,520 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are just checked out. 1712 01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:42,880 Speaker 1: They're smoking marijuana, they're watching Netflix, and they're Disney Plus 1713 01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:45,720 Speaker 1: and they just don't care. And they're just numb. It's 1714 01:56:45,760 --> 01:56:48,240 Speaker 1: the breads and Circuses thing, and they don't care. They 1715 01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:51,600 Speaker 1: check the boxes as Democrats, and there's no strong leaders here. 1716 01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:54,440 Speaker 1: The Republican Party out here is a joke because they're 1717 01:56:54,560 --> 01:56:58,160 Speaker 1: terrified of the Los Angeles Times of all things, which 1718 01:56:58,200 --> 01:57:01,440 Speaker 1: I never understood. But there's no strong leaders out here. Jessie. 1719 01:57:01,480 --> 01:57:04,320 Speaker 1: It's just sad because it's such a beautiful, beautiful place, 1720 01:57:04,360 --> 01:57:07,680 Speaker 1: and I love it so much. It sucks. It is beautiful. 1721 01:57:08,280 --> 01:57:10,839 Speaker 1: B K, host of World News with b K, highly 1722 01:57:10,880 --> 01:57:13,600 Speaker 1: recommend it. Thank you, my friend. Have merry Christmas. Thank you, Jesse, 1723 01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:18,520 Speaker 1: Merry Christmas. You can hear it in his voice. Man, 1724 01:57:18,560 --> 01:57:22,320 Speaker 1: And I know Native Californians like that. They're so mad 1725 01:57:22,360 --> 01:57:26,520 Speaker 1: about what those scumbags have done to their state. All right, 1726 01:57:26,560 --> 01:57:28,880 Speaker 1: Hang on one second, we have to talk one more 1727 01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:50,440 Speaker 1: time about running for office. This is the Jesse Kelly Chew. 1728 01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:57,640 Speaker 1: No word in the English language is less convincing than probably. 1729 01:57:58,560 --> 01:58:01,360 Speaker 1: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our 1730 01:58:01,360 --> 01:58:07,360 Speaker 1: first aid? Sure? We'll probably stay together. Probably, it's been 1731 01:58:07,480 --> 01:58:11,640 Speaker 1: twenty three minutes since I ate. I can probably swim. 1732 01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:14,920 Speaker 1: You should wait thirty minutes. Okay, I don't tell me 1733 01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:20,440 Speaker 1: what to do. Candid cramp? Oh, I have a cramp. 1734 01:58:22,840 --> 01:58:30,560 Speaker 1: I can probably hit the green from here. Probably? Can 1735 01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:34,480 Speaker 1: I get a Mulligan ready to go? Hey? Are you 1736 01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:39,480 Speaker 1: sure you're okay to drive? Yeah? I'm pretty sober. Yeah, 1737 01:58:39,560 --> 01:58:45,360 Speaker 1: I'm probably okay. Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it 1738 01:58:45,360 --> 01:58:48,360 Speaker 1: comes to drinking and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, 1739 01:58:48,440 --> 01:58:51,800 Speaker 1: a car or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving 1740 01:58:51,840 --> 01:58:53,920 Speaker 1: A message brought to you by NITZA and AD Council 1741 01:59:19,120 --> 01:59:23,920 Speaker 1: the toughest thing in the world. Then I struggle with 1742 01:59:23,960 --> 01:59:31,400 Speaker 1: this too, just like you do. Is personal responsibility. Personal 1743 01:59:31,760 --> 01:59:38,160 Speaker 1: responsibility taking ownership of your problems, of problems in general, 1744 01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 1: and doing something about it. I mean, we all do this. 1745 01:59:45,560 --> 01:59:49,160 Speaker 1: I know I'm guilty of it. Do you ever look 1746 01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:53,320 Speaker 1: around there's a family hurting out there. You read a 1747 01:59:53,320 --> 01:59:57,320 Speaker 1: news story about him, see something on social media, and 1748 01:59:57,400 --> 02:00:01,360 Speaker 1: you say to yourself, man, someone should do something to 1749 02:00:01,400 --> 02:00:06,880 Speaker 1: help those people. I do. I say it all the 1750 02:00:06,880 --> 02:00:09,160 Speaker 1: time because especially because of what I do, and people 1751 02:00:09,200 --> 02:00:11,600 Speaker 1: will email me things and look, take a look at 1752 02:00:11,600 --> 02:00:13,360 Speaker 1: this family and Jesse, and I love that you guys 1753 02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:15,640 Speaker 1: bring that stuff to my attention. I do whatever, I mean, 1754 02:00:15,760 --> 02:00:18,800 Speaker 1: whatever I can. But you know what I say to myself, 1755 02:00:18,840 --> 02:00:22,440 Speaker 1: so many times I'll get to see me, I'll be wow, 1756 02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:26,720 Speaker 1: family had their house burned down, he lost his job. Gosh, 1757 02:00:26,800 --> 02:00:30,120 Speaker 1: you know what, somebody, somebody should get that family some 1758 02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:34,640 Speaker 1: Christmas gifts this year. You know what I don't often 1759 02:00:34,680 --> 02:00:38,960 Speaker 1: do look at that email and say to myself, I 1760 02:00:39,000 --> 02:00:44,280 Speaker 1: should get that family some Christmas gifts this year. Personal 1761 02:00:44,320 --> 02:00:49,520 Speaker 1: responsibility is tough, man, especially things that don't don't come 1762 02:00:49,600 --> 02:00:53,200 Speaker 1: under your direct control. It's not hard to have personal 1763 02:00:53,240 --> 02:00:56,840 Speaker 1: responsibility when you look down at yourself and you're cupcaking 1764 02:00:56,920 --> 02:00:59,040 Speaker 1: over your jeans and you're like, okay, I got too 1765 02:00:59,040 --> 02:01:03,640 Speaker 1: fat as a dude. You hit middle age, you're not 1766 02:01:03,720 --> 02:01:06,880 Speaker 1: churning and burning like you used to. You look at 1767 02:01:06,960 --> 02:01:10,040 Speaker 1: yourself in the mirror and you think, Okay, that's a 1768 02:01:10,040 --> 02:01:13,240 Speaker 1: little soft. AD's a little soft. It's not hard to 1769 02:01:13,240 --> 02:01:16,440 Speaker 1: have a personal responsibility moment there. Who else you're gonna blame? 1770 02:01:17,120 --> 02:01:20,320 Speaker 1: I ate the cheeseburgers. I walked right on past the 1771 02:01:20,440 --> 02:01:22,840 Speaker 1: gym on the way to the butt heavy fridge, and 1772 02:01:23,080 --> 02:01:27,839 Speaker 1: it's on me. Got to tighten that up. It's harder 1773 02:01:27,840 --> 02:01:30,960 Speaker 1: to take personal responsibility for things that don't come under 1774 02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:37,040 Speaker 1: your purview, like Congress. And I know it's hard, and 1775 02:01:37,160 --> 02:01:41,840 Speaker 1: I know you aren't going to, but if one person 1776 02:01:42,000 --> 02:01:47,320 Speaker 1: does it, one person, it can make a difference five ten, twenty, fifty, 1777 02:01:47,320 --> 02:01:53,080 Speaker 1: one hundred, It can make a difference. Primary you're Republican congressman. 1778 02:01:53,840 --> 02:01:56,720 Speaker 1: If it's a Democrat congressman, and maybe he walks in, 1779 02:01:56,760 --> 02:01:59,880 Speaker 1: maybe he wins easily every time, run against him. If 1780 02:02:00,160 --> 02:02:02,760 Speaker 1: you lose, take this from me and hear me. Well. 1781 02:02:03,360 --> 02:02:08,240 Speaker 1: I've lost twice. After I lost that heartbreaker against Gabrielle Giffords, 1782 02:02:08,320 --> 02:02:10,400 Speaker 1: they had to recount the votes. It took him a week, 1783 02:02:10,400 --> 02:02:12,879 Speaker 1: it was so close. I ran again in the special 1784 02:02:12,880 --> 02:02:16,760 Speaker 1: election like six months later and lost in that one too. 1785 02:02:16,840 --> 02:02:20,240 Speaker 1: I've lost twice, two times. I have had to make 1786 02:02:20,320 --> 02:02:22,640 Speaker 1: that walk when I had to concede the race. I've 1787 02:02:22,680 --> 02:02:25,800 Speaker 1: had to call my opponent, concede and make that walk 1788 02:02:25,840 --> 02:02:28,600 Speaker 1: with all your supporters there at the campaign night party, 1789 02:02:28,600 --> 02:02:30,600 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a celebration that we're gonna win 1790 02:02:30,720 --> 02:02:32,880 Speaker 1: with who. And I've had to make that walk with 1791 02:02:32,960 --> 02:02:36,720 Speaker 1: TV cameras in your face and your supporters crying and say, 1792 02:02:38,320 --> 02:02:43,080 Speaker 1: we didn't make it. It was you don't say this, 1793 02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:45,680 Speaker 1: but that's what they're hearing. It was all for nothing. 1794 02:02:45,840 --> 02:02:49,200 Speaker 1: We lost. It's over, and let me tell you, it's hard. 1795 02:02:49,480 --> 02:02:52,400 Speaker 1: It hurts. I'm not gonna tell you otherwise. And it's 1796 02:02:52,440 --> 02:02:56,520 Speaker 1: time away from your family and raising money sucks. Nobody 1797 02:02:56,560 --> 02:02:59,640 Speaker 1: likes asking for money, except for probably Jewish producer Chris. 1798 02:02:59,840 --> 02:03:08,480 Speaker 1: Nobody likes asking for money. It's horrible. However, it doesn't 1799 02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:12,240 Speaker 1: change unless you change it. And I'm talking to you. 1800 02:03:12,600 --> 02:03:14,600 Speaker 1: Don't look to your left, don't look to your right. 1801 02:03:15,280 --> 02:03:18,280 Speaker 1: Don't think that must be I must be somebody in 1802 02:03:18,360 --> 02:03:21,600 Speaker 1: Boston or Albuquerque or Charlotte, or it's got to be 1803 02:03:21,640 --> 02:03:23,800 Speaker 1: someone in one of those other cities where the Jesse 1804 02:03:23,920 --> 02:03:27,280 Speaker 1: Kelly shows.

We're gonna get it. 1810 02:03:48,440 --> 02:03:53,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna keep getting stuck with a billion dollars for 1811 02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:59,480 Speaker 1: the Smithsonian, a billion with a bee. If you're tired 1812 02:03:59,520 --> 02:04:04,520 Speaker 1: of having to fund gender programs in Pakistan, what you're 1813 02:04:04,560 --> 02:04:06,920 Speaker 1: about to do as soon as Donald Trump signs a spill. 1814 02:04:07,600 --> 02:04:14,080 Speaker 1: If you're tired of that, do something about it, all right? 1815 02:04:14,200 --> 02:04:20,040 Speaker 1: Remember tomorrow is an ask doctor Jesse Wednesday.
