Why you can't find a job. But 8 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: they say the market's doing well. We'll address that tonight. 9 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: We have asked Doctor Jesse questions on everything from history. No, 10 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do Battle of Midway Talk tonight. Okay, 11 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: maybe I'll do a little Battle of Midway talk a little. 12 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: Don't get your hopes up as nothing like last night, 13 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: my last meal. Why does it feel like everything's rotting 14 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: around us? The oceans that have always protected us? Are 15 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: they still protecting us? What's going to happen if Trump wins? 16 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: Is that enough of a disincentive for the left in insanity? Oh? 17 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: That and so much more coming up tonight on the 18 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: world famous Jesse Kelly Show. Before we get to the questions, 19 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: I want to go ahead and knock this out right 20 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: off the top jobs numbers came in, unemployments up or 21 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,919 Speaker 1: look it's bad. Okay, the economy is bad. It doesn't 22 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: look good. And once again we have a number, and 23 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: this is it for native born workers, native born Americans, 24 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: American citizens, they're down six hundred and sixty three thousand jobs. 25 00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: Foreign born workers illegals may mainly illegals, but foreign workers 26 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: are up four hundred and fourteen thousand jobs. American citizens 27 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: have lost over six hundred thousand. Foreign born workers are 28 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: down four hundred thousand. And this is the gigantic disconnect 29 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: between the economists, the media people, the politicians in DC, 30 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: and the actual American citizen. So let's talk about what's 31 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: happening on a bigger level. Why does it feel to 32 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:37,559 Speaker 1: you to me like the economy's bad, Like economically financially 33 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: we're in a bad place. Yet every single day you 34 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: turn on the news and some Apparatrick on CNN is 35 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: talking about how great things are. And I don't understand 36 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: why these Americans are complaining. What are they complaining about? 37 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: There's none that Look at the stock market, stock markets 38 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: up and we're creating new jobs. What's happening? All right, 39 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: Let's first do what we love to do. The most 40 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: not individual stories. Let's zoom out. Let's go thirty thousand 41 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: feet on a thirty thousand foot level, the country is 42 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: being taken away from you. I know that sounds maybe dramatic, melodramatic, 43 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: but every metric proves that to be the case. The 44 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: American citizen, the American citizen, he is viewed by the 45 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: corporate leaders, the globalist corporate leaders we have, by the 46 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: politicians in the Democrat Party and the leaders of the 47 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: Republican Party, by all the elites in our society. They 48 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: view the American citizen, now, the native born American citizen, 49 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: at best, he's kind of annoying or at least somebody 50 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: to be ignored. At worst, they view him as the enemy, 51 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: as the enemy, as hostile to who they are. And 52 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: this takes many, many, many different forms. So, you know what, 53 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: let's focus on the corporate American form. Will set aside 54 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: the politicians for a moment. Focus on corporate America, and 55 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: this can get that. We're not going to get two 56 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: in the weeds here, We're just kind of doing a 57 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: zoom out of it. Let's take a company, a company 58 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: you would consider maybe American or at least formerly American. 59 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: You know, here's a great example, because you don't buy 60 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: it anymore, at least I hope Budweiser and iSER Busch, 61 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: what happened? What has happened over the years, Because Budweiser 62 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: was America baby started by the Americans started. This is 63 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: an American company, Budweiser. Over the decades, businesses will want 64 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: to expand, that's what they do. They'll want to grow, 65 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: they'll move on. Family businesses will cease being family businesses 66 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: as the kids and their kids after them and their 67 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: kids after them have less of an affinity for the business. 68 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: They like the money. Hey, I like the yacht, the 69 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: private jets. I'm not all that into all the work thing. 70 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: And slowly, but surely, over time these businesses have ceased 71 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: being American businesses and they've become global businesses. Budwiser was 72 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: sold to I believe it was a Swedish company. If 73 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: I remember right, it's certainly European. It was not America. Gme, 74 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: if I remember it, I'm doing this off the top 75 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: of my head. Budwiser was sold off. It's not even 76 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: American anymore, not owned by Americans anymore. Okay, so now 77 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: you're this global corporation. You're not an American corporation. You're 78 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: a global corporation. You purchase Budweiser, all right, Well, what 79 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: affinity do you have to Americans or American citizens? You 80 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: don't have any of that. You're a jigantic global company. 81 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: You buy companies all over the planet. What matters to 82 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: you The bottom line, baby, that's all that matters to you. 83 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: And that's fine if you run a business that way. 84 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: But what happens is when you only care about that 85 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: and the leaders of your company have no affinity to Americans, 86 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: you will get a situation where American citizens are crowded 87 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: out and pushed out of the job market. Now how 88 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: does that happen. Well, the gigantic corporations, the Budweisers of 89 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: the world, they go to the politicians, Democrats and Republican 90 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: leaders and they sit Joe Biden down, and they sit 91 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell down, and they say, hey, we just started 92 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: Budweiser pack. I'm making this up and it's very very 93 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: similar to how it goes. We just started bud pack 94 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: and I want you to know, Joe, we got one 95 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars for your reelection campaign. Getting ready get 96 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: ready the Budweiser money's coming. Joe. Hey, Mitch, we got 97 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars coming for your campaign. But ah, 98 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: just the heads up though, guys, Mmmm, we kind of 99 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: need we need some different workers. You see. We have 100 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 1: these American workers, and I mean they're fine, they work hard, 101 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: and it's great, and they speak English and all that. 102 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: But gosh, if we could bring in I don't know, 103 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: five ten thousand people from India, Mexico, we could pay 104 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: them a lot less. Our bottom line looks good, Your 105 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,119 Speaker 1: campaign coffers look good. Everybody wins here, don't they, Joe, 106 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: don't they? Mitch. It's a win for me, it's a 107 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: win for you. And so where does that go from there? 108 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: Remember it was like fifteen minutes ago James Langford and 109 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell came up with a huge amnesty plan that 110 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: kept the border open and amnesty in a bunch of illegals. 111 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: You see, the country is being torn from the hands 112 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: of the American citizen, is being handed to global corporation 113 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: and immigrants, mostly illegal immigrants. I should point out we're 114 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: not talking legal immigrants here, who make up They don't 115 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: make up as much of the workforce as people think. 116 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: But even that, even that, when we're talking about visas 117 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: and things like that, even that can be bad. Remember 118 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: there was a story a few years back. Maybe you 119 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: remember this, maybe you don't. It ended up being a 120 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: controversy that hit the head minds Disney that Solis LGBTQ company. Disney, 121 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: they brought in I think the number was twenty five hundred. 122 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: Don't quote me on that, but I'm almost positive that's right. 123 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: They brought in twenty five hundred people. I believe it 124 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: was from India, but I'm not sure. They brought in 125 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred foreigners. And what were they doing. They 126 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: brought in twenty five hundred foreigners, They had twenty five 127 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: hundred American employees trained the twenty five hundred foreigners to 128 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: replace themselves. They trained the foreigners, hired the foreigners, fired 129 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: the Americans, twenty five hundred Americans out of work, twenty 130 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: five hundred foreigners full time employment in the United States 131 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: of America for an American company like Disney. Now that's 132 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: more just some examples. They are kind of a thirty 133 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,839 Speaker 1: thousand foot view. But if you want to know why 134 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 1: your college graduate son, your college graduate daughter got good grades, 135 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: great work ethic, good manners. You want to know why 136 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: they've put in two three, four hundred resumes and can't 137 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: get a callback. They're not interesting that in you American, 138 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: your son, your daughter will probably probably want a decent wage. 139 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: Why would they want to pay your son or your 140 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: daughter a decent wage. They'll go get click click from 141 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: Guyana or wherever, and they'll pay him pennies on the dollar. 142 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: Your son, your daughter is a burden. You see. I 143 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: told you about that story when I was talking to 144 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: my neighbor a couple of weeks ago, and I got 145 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of emails of people going through this. After 146 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: I talked to you, talk to you about it. His 147 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: son graduated with perfection in grades. Hard worker, polite. I 148 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: know the kid, hard worker, polite, wonderful. He is currently despondent. 149 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: He put in two hundred applications and got one phone 150 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: call back. But the stock market, of course, looks great. 151 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: And why does the stock market look great? Because they've 152 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: killed all the small businesses. They wiped out a third 153 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: of small businesses in this country during the pandemic. But 154 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: that business didn't go away. It got hoovered up by 155 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: all these large Fortune five hundred companies, and now that's 156 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: all the stock market is. The stock market is Microsoft, 157 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: it's Google, it's Blackrock, it's this, it's that. The stock 158 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: market is these gigantic corporations. And yeah, the stock market 159 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: looks great because it's Google and Google's doing fine. So 160 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: the economists, the media nerds, they sit down, they look 161 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: at the economy and they're saying, what why are these 162 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: people whining. We've got a net positive in jobs, so 163 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: that stock market's up. These stupid Americans don't know what's 164 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: best for them. In the meanwhile, you can't afford groceries. 165 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: Your son just moved back in with ufter you sunk 166 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars on a college education. He can't find 167 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: a job, you can't make ends meet, and these people 168 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: go on television and scold you every day about how 169 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: good you have it. And this is being done the country, 170 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: not just the economy, the country itself is being torn 171 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: from the hands of those troublesome Americans and handed to 172 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: global corporations and immigrants. That's why you think it sucks. 173 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: And they're like, hey, it's great, that's what you see. 174 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: All right, let's move on. We got some emails here Jesse. 175 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: I was watching Band of Brothers on D Day and thought, 176 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: I need to double my tongue Cat one hundred subscription 177 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: on my Vitality Stack.

Mental sharpness was probably the 186 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: biggest surprise for the recommendation, and thanks to Chuck for 187 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: a great product. His name is David. I'll be honest 188 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 1: with you, David. When I started taking a male Vitality Stack, 189 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: I started taking it just because Chalk partnered with the show. 190 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: I didn't feel like I was having any problems. Everything 191 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: was fine. But that is honestly, that's probably the thing 192 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: that has floored me to most my mind. I am 193 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: so much sharper. It's like I didn't know I was 194 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: in a fog. It feels like it's been lifted.

If you missed it, 217 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: last night show was different. Probably the first hour and 218 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: a half of the show. There wasn't even any politics. 219 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: More than an hour and a half, Chris, Oh dang, 220 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: more than an hour and a half. There wasn't even 221 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: any politics. We told a d Day story about the 222 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: Second Ranger Battalion and whatnot.

Okay, 224 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: we got all kinds of emails like this. Hello, mister Kelly. 225 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Sarah and 226 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm a forty two year old single white woman who 227 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: lives in Tampa with her cat. I love this girl. 228 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: I am also a diehard anti communist. Listen to your podcast, 229 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: to your show in the morning when I'm getting ready 230 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: for work. It's a great way to start my day. 231 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: Had the privilege of meeting you in the book tour, 232 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: first time I ever met a world famous author. I'm 233 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: also history teacher. I love while I love the political 234 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: aspect of the show. I learned so much in the 235 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: short time I've been listening. My favorite part is anytime 236 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: you do anything history related, She's gonna incorporate that more 237 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: lessons into her school next year, which is really really 238 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: freaking cool. Good for you, Good for you, lady. Anyway, 239 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: she said, my question is when did you start loving history? 240 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: Did you have a teacher that impacted you? Thanks for 241 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: all you do to keep us informed, and thank you 242 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: to Jewish producer Chris and producer Michael for your hard 243 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: job of keeping Jesse focused on what he's doing. You 244 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: are both the winners. But my focus is just stay focused. Yeah, listen. 245 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: As I've said many many times before, every single person 246 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: loves history. Everybody loves history. Some people just haven't figured 247 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: it out yet, meaning they don't know that they love 248 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: it yet. When people learn history in school, not all 249 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: the time, but oftentimes, or they watch a podcast or 250 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: a documentary, anything involving history, its names and its dates 251 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: and its locations. It's General Wayne Wright. He met with 252 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: his captain Bob, and his mother Angela and their sister 253 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: in law Mike, on June twelfth, nineteen forty two, in Bisbee, Oklahoma. 254 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, who cares? History is stories? And maybe 255 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: you have a different kind of history you like. It 256 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be war history or battles. Or maybe 257 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: it's art history, music history, language history, American history, African history, 258 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: Chinese history. There's so much of it out there. You 259 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: love history, you probably just don't know it yet. And 260 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: the answer your question for all of you teachers out there, 261 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: not just history teachers. Look, a good teacher can change 262 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: the entire course of the rest of your life. You 263 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: realize that you good teachers. And I know there are 264 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: really good teachers who listen to the show. I've met you, 265 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: you email in you, and you probably will never know. Honestly, 266 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: you probably will never know. And I'm sad to say 267 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: the man I'm about to mention will never know. But 268 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: I had a histy street teacher. It was the sixth grade, 269 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: and up to that point I hated history too like 270 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: everyone else. Oh gosh, here we go again. And all 271 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: of a sudden, this giant man, he was the defensive 272 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: coach on the football team for the high school. He 273 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: walks in with this long stick and starts slapping the 274 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: whiteboard and talking about Spartan stabbing people in the face, 275 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: and he's animated and he's going crazy. And I'll tell 276 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: you what, you couldn't pry sixth grade Jesse out of 277 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 1: that chair. I would have sat there for eight hours 278 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: and listened to that guy tell me stories about history. 279 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be history, teachers, If you 280 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: are putting that kind of time and effort in, it 281 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: makes more of an impact than you will ever know. 282 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: And even if it's just one kid, and it'll be 283 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: way more than one. Even if it's just one kid, 284 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: A great teacher, a great coach. This applies to coaches, 285 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: you little league coaches and things like that. One great 286 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: adult and a child's life can chair change everything. And 287 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: so I know everyone thinks I hate government schools, and 288 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 1: I do. But for all you good teachers out there, 289 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: private and government, good for you. All. Right now, someone 290 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: wants to know, Jesse. Why does it feel like we're 291 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: trying to bail water from the ocean? So much looks 292 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: very bleak for our country. How close are we to 293 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: Germany pre World War One? Okay, let's talk about that. 294 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: Are you in that place? Why is it this is hopeless? 295 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: It feels like we can't do it. Let's talk about 296 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: that in a very real way. Maybe this will make 297 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: you feel better, Maybe it to make it feel worse. 298 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: All right, If it makes you feel worse, that's fine. 299 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: You still have your MyPillow stuff to sleep in tonight. 300 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: You'll get a good night's sleep, no matter how it 301 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: makes you feel.

I just don't want to I don't 329 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: want to force people to pay money for this stuff. 330 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: So there, that's why we're doing it the way we're 331 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: doing it. I'm gonna get to bailing water from the 332 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: ocean because someone's a little despondent about where we're at 333 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,479 Speaker 1: and as a country feels a little hopeless. I'll get 334 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: to him in a second. But I was just talking 335 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: to Chris about this. Chris and Michael during the break 336 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: Everyone knows that waffle House breakfast is elite. Everyone knows 337 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: that that's not exactly some breaking news thing. Waffle House 338 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: breakfast is phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal, as good as it gets. 339 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: What most don't know, but the menu whisperer does know. 340 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: The menu whisper would be me for you new listeners. 341 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: I'm the greatest orderer of food on the planet. What Chris, 342 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: The waffle House cheeseburger is one of the top five 343 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: restaurant cheeseburgers on the planet. Get some of the special 344 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: waffle House mayo. It's a Chipotle mayo. I hate to 345 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,719 Speaker 1: give away their secrets, but get some of the waffle Hell, 346 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: it's even Chris says, it's good. Chris doesn't even like mayo. 347 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: Get some of that waffle House mayo on there. Oh gosh, 348 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: add bacon to it, Hey, Chris, not for you, but 349 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: everyone who's not Jewish adds some bacon to it. I'm 350 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: telling you, as good as it gets. Now, let's get 351 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: back to the heavier stuff. This was the ask Doctor Jesse, 352 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: question Dictator Jesse, what does it feel like we're trying 353 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: to bail water from the ocean. So much looks very 354 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: bleak for our country as a whole. How close are 355 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: we to Germany pre World War One? Very concerning and 356 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: close to depressing? Very little hope. Okay, Well, allow me 357 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: to take away all of your hope and then give 358 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: you some some different hope. See, hope is one of 359 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: those funny things. And there have been a million stories 360 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: written about hope where hope is the central theme, Warnings 361 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: about hope, cheering, hope, hope's bad, hope's good, hope's good, 362 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: have all all these other things. But here's the truth. 363 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: Hope is wonderful as long as your hope is in 364 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 1: the right things. Hope is awful, disastrous, a horrible, horrible 365 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: way to live if your hope is in the wrong 366 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: things or things that can't happen or won't happen. It's 367 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: all a matter of figuring out where to place your hope. Now, 368 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: let's talk about it as a country. And you know 369 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: this is me. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it for you. 370 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it to you right between the eyes 371 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: and just just stay with me, because I think you'll 372 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: probably feel better at the end of this when it 373 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: comes to the United States of America, the country I 374 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: so love. I would die for it. Still to this day, 375 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: I can't help it. I love my country. I'm the 376 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: dorc who still gets misty when the national anthem plays. 377 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 1: You know, last night on that d Day show, when 378 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: we played that Army Ranger that salts the old Army Ranger, 379 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: when we played a couple times on the show, we 380 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 1: played him singing this Ranger ballad. When I first saw 381 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: that at my house, I was at the house doing 382 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: some prep work for the show so I could give 383 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: you a good history story. I got choked up. This 384 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: is me. I don't cry. I got choked up. I 385 00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: love my country. That said country is I'm not gonna 386 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 1: say on the back end, We're not gonna be gone 387 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: in a couple of years. I'm not saying that at all. 388 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: But nations empires, they don't last forever. It doesn't matter 389 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: how big they are, how wonderful they are, how powerful 390 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: they are. Look you like history. I like history. Even 391 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: if you hate it. You at least know history empires, 392 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 1: even ones that look like they can never die. If 393 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: you had told people the Roman Empire at the height 394 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: of its power, if you told them that that empire 395 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: was one hundred years away from the Vandals kicking down 396 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 1: the gates of Rome, they would have they probably would 397 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: have put you in whatever the ancient Roman version of 398 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: an asylum was, because nobody would ever believe it can't happen. 399 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: We are Rome, the British Empire. I will set the 400 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: Romans aside. The British Empire, honestly, leading up to World 401 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 1: War Two was still huge territories all over the place India, 402 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, just huge, this massive, massive empire. And if 403 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: you had told people, yeah, right about the Revolutionary war time, 404 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: if you had told people this British Empire would shrink 405 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: in just a relatively short amount of time, in a 406 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: couple hundred years, the British Empire, it's gonna kind of 407 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: be an island in the crappy North Atlantic. And that's 408 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 1: about it. They would have thought you were insane. But 409 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: that's how it goes. That's how it goes, and that's 410 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: how it's going for us. We for a laundry list 411 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: of reasons we lost our way, but maybe the easiest, 412 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 1: most simple explanation is time got to us the way 413 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,719 Speaker 1: time has gotten to every empire. All these empires that 414 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: begin to fade and crumble and go away. Yes, there 415 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: are similarities. There are always the lack of patriotism from 416 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: the people who lead the empires as one of those things, 417 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: that is, it is constant throughout all of them, almost 418 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 1: every one of them. They share that in common. You 419 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: see that now with ours. There's no love of country 420 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: there in these people. So there are common traits, but 421 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: they all have their own story. Eventually, time gets to you. 422 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: The United States of America is in a very very 423 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: bad way. And trust me, I'm gonna follow this up 424 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: with some hope. Believe me. Just stay with me. We 425 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: are in a terrible way. And to answer kind of 426 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: your question, no, I do not believe we will get 427 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: the band back together again. The United States of America, 428 00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: fifty States Constitution, all those things. I believe it is 429 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 1: gone and it will never return. I don't believe it 430 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: can return. You can't have this many people, especially this 431 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: many leaders in your society, hate the society and then 432 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: patch it back up again. You're not in election away 433 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: from having everything, all the wrongs be righted. That's not possible. Honestly, 434 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: people will put that because Trump creates this love in 435 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 1: people because he's so charismatic, people will put that on him. 436 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: And to be honest with you, that's unfair to Trump. 437 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: There's no man alive who has ever lived, actually, who 438 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: could walk into the White House in this country, in 439 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: this situation and get things right. Not in four years, 440 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: not in eight years, not in twelve years. It's not possible. 441 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: You're asking, you're wanting something from someone that they can't 442 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: possibly do. The fifty state United States of America is gone. 443 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: That does not mean all hope is lost. That does 444 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: not mean it's over. That does not mean your life 445 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: is going to be ruined or awful, or the lives 446 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: of your children or their children after them. What it 447 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: means is we have to begin placing our hope in 448 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: different things. We have to begin adjusting our expectations for 449 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: what our lives, our country, and everything else. Looks like. 450 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: Our problem is now and I suffer from this too. Okay, 451 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: our problem is now. We love this place so much 452 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: that we have a hard time accepting certain realities. Now, 453 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: let's set all that aside. That was the ugly part 454 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: of it. Let's talk about the good part of it. 455 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: Because there is a lot good, there's a lot bad. 456 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: No question. But there is a lot good now that 457 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: I brought everybody down, let's bring you back up. All right? 458 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: Speaking of bringing you back up, the dog is ridiculous. 459 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: Do you want to know the text message I just got. 460 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: My mom just hit town. She's visiting for the weekend. 461 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: Hang out with me? Or who am I kidding? She's 462 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: not here to hang out with me, She's here to 463 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: hang out with the kids and the dog. Fred. Fred 464 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: loves my mom. She loves Fred. She shows up with 465 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: toys for the dog and no toys for anyone. I'm 466 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: not making this up. She'll walk in with toys for 467 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: the dog. I'm not even kidding. And when she leaves, 468 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: he's just despondent. He'll lay by the front door for 469 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: a couple days wanting her to come back. And if 470 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: that wasn't bad enough, my mom sends a text message 471 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: as soon as she hits town. This just happened. She 472 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,239 Speaker 1: sends a text message that I just landed at the 473 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: airport and I kid you not. My sister texts back, 474 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: this is verbatim. I'm looking at it. Have fun, send 475 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: pictures of Fred. That was the request, dog pictures.

And someone says, 486 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: we're trying to build water from the ocean, and I 487 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: just kind of laid it out in a very extremely 488 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: heavy one, as heavy as ten boxes, that you might 489 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: be moving where I feel like we are as a country, 490 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: And no, I don't feel like we're getting the band 491 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: back together again. However, However, that was that. Now, let's 492 00:30:54,960 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: set that aside. Just because your life, in my life, 493 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: in the lives of my children and your children and 494 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: their children after them, just because it will look different 495 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: and in many ways worse than the lives our parents 496 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: and their parents had, that does not mean that all 497 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: hope is lost. You know why we feel hopeless, and 498 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: I'm pointing fingers at myself on occasion when we feel 499 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: down or we feel hopeless about the state of the country, 500 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, I am very guilty of this. 501 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: Here's what I'm actually lamenting. I'm lamenting that I don't 502 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: get to live in the country I want to live in. 503 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't get to live in the country that I 504 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: had even when I was just a kid. I was 505 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: my wife and I this morning, we were hanging out 506 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: with the boys. We were having breakfast, We were joking 507 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: and things like that, and my wife and I were 508 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: talking in front of them about old movies, like older 509 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: movies that the boys had never seen that we loved. 510 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: You ever seen the movie Crocodile Dundee. I'm sure Chris 511 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: and Michael probably haven't. Michael hasn't, Chris has. But if 512 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: you are of a certain age, everyone saw Crocodile Dundee. 513 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: They don't make movies like that anymore, They just don't. 514 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: They don't make movies like that anymore. I want to 515 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: live in the Crocodile Dundee America. And because now I don't. Now, 516 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: because I want to live in the country I don't 517 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: have I can allow that to get me down. But 518 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: that is not right unless this happened to you. I'll 519 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: tell you one thing that has most definitely never happened 520 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: to me. It has never happened to me. God has 521 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: never said to me, Jesse, you are gonna get to 522 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: live in the same country your parents did, in the 523 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: same country your grandpa did. That country is gonna be 524 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: held together, and it's gonna be good, and it's gonna 525 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: just be a wonderful place. God has never told me 526 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: that we you me, we do not get to pick 527 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: the era of human history. God gives us however long 528 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: we are on this planet, however long, maybe a die young, 529 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: ten years, maybe a die old, maybe you're a hundred. 530 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: You me, We were not given votes on the period 531 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: of time we live in, and we are not given 532 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: this period of time by accident. God. I don't care 533 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: if you're eighty five right now or five. God puts 534 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: you in this time and place on purpose. He didn't 535 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: trip and spill you onto this time and place. You 536 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: are put here with the skills you have, with the 537 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: gifts you've been given. You are put here. I am 538 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: put here on purpose, and I need to remind myself 539 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: of that when I look around and start to lament 540 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: all the filth and everything in this country, in this culture, 541 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: and think about this. If you want to feel even 542 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: better about that, here's how I want to But here's 543 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: how I want to explain this. All we have is 544 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: the struggle. Right now, I am struggling against all this. 545 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 1: You are struggling against all this. We are figuring out 546 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: how best to struggle, how do we fight, what's the 547 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: right way to fight? And we are fighting as hard 548 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: as we possibly can. That does not mean we will 549 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,399 Speaker 1: see final victory, because we will not. It will take 550 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: too long to get there. My lot in life is this. 551 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: I will fight all this garbage for as long as 552 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: I can. Maybe it's doing radio TV. Maybe maybe I'll 553 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: get fired, maybe I'm supposed to do something else, whatever 554 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,439 Speaker 1: it may be, I will fight this filth for as 555 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: long as I can. And when I'm out of energy 556 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: or out of life, or God takes me home, then 557 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: guess what it's my son's turn. Step up, buck up, 558 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: and now you fight. The struggle is what we have 559 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,280 Speaker 1: to put our hope in. I will die never having 560 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 1: seen final victory in this country or this culture. I 561 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: am forty two. It will never happen in my lifetime. 562 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: If you're ten, it will never happen in your lifetime. 563 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 1: I have embraced the struggle. We must embrace the struggle. Yeah, 564 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: that's a great quote, Chris. Chris brought up that John 565 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: Adams quote, and it's one of the great quotes in 566 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:39,240 Speaker 1: all of human history. I lean on it. I study 567 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: war and politics, so my sons may study mathematics and philosophy. 568 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: I whenever I feel hopeless or down, it's because I'm 569 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: craving an easier life than the one God gave me. 570 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: I was not given that and easier country. I should say, 571 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: my life is fine, don't worry about that. I'm not 572 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 1: complaining about my life. I'm craving something I was not given. 573 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: But I don't have a right to that. I don't know. 574 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: That's not an automatic. That's not the country I was given. 575 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 1: Now I have to fight to try to make it 576 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 1: that way. And remember this, Please remember this leading up 577 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: to November and the next thing, and the next thing 578 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: and the next thing. As I've said a million times, 579 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: saving the country is not an event. It's a process. 580 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: This guy said, it feels like we're bailing water from 581 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: the ocean. Maybe we are, maybe we're not, but we 582 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: bail or the ship goes down. Maybe we will succeed. 583 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: Maybe we will fight a million battles. Maybe we'll lose 584 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: a half a million and win a half a million. 585 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: Maybe in the end we will see Vinyl victory. Maybe 586 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: we will not, but don't we have to try. If 587 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: you're going to sit and put your hope in America, 588 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: coming back to what it was, the America you've always known, 589 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: then you're probably putting your hope in something that's not 590 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: going to come. And whenever I get down, and you've 591 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: heard me on the air down before, that's when I 592 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: sit back and look at it after a show and 593 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: I'm feeling down and I realize I'm down driving home, 594 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: and my wife can usually tell if I'm down on 595 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: the air, I'm down at home, Like that's how I feel. 596 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: It's not you. I'm right here with you. You know 597 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: how I feel. If I'm down, it's because I'm wanting 598 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: something that I don't have a right to. I don't 599 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: have a right to demand it. All right, this is 600 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,280 Speaker 1: the country we've been given. Fall in love with the struggle, 601 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: because the struggle is what we have. We are fighters 602 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: now to the day they bury us. All right, all right, 603 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 1: I got this email. Dear mister, I take shock to 604 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: increase my tea levels, but still shower like a woman. 605 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: I hate you guys. Anyway. The subject of this one 606 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: is putting my money where my morals are. This dude 607 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: was donating to a charity and they started putting out 608 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: all kinds of DEI garbage, so he canceled his donations 609 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 1: and changed his name. Get this, he changed his name 610 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: with their company to mister no more LGBTQ support from me. 611 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: What's his name? Anyway? He said, my money will now 612 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: be going to Tunnel to Towers. Biggest selling point for me, 613 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: besides you, is that their executives make a zero dollar salary. 614 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: That's when you know they care about their mission. I 615 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: have been involved in the nonprofit world. I have never 616 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: seen the people who run a nonprofit take as little 617 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: as Tunnel to Towers takes. They take virtually nothing. It's 618 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: for the veterans, it's for the fallen first responders, the 619 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: gold Star families, and all they ask is eleven bucks 620 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: a month. Go to T the number two T dot 621 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: org and sign up T two T dot org. We 622 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: still have hours left. Hang on
