Hey, everybody, Welcome to another 0:00:21.537 --> 0:00:25.337 episode of The Buck Sexton Show. Very pleased to have 0:00:25.617 --> 0:00:27.977 joining us for this deep dive into all things that 0:00:28.017 --> 0:00:32.497 matter our friend Carol Markowitz of The New York Post, 0:00:32.617 --> 0:00:37.017 also co author of a fantastic book that all of 0:00:37.017 --> 0:00:41.497 you should be checking out, Stolen Youth, and a refugee 0:00:41.497 --> 0:00:46.377 from New York City to Florida, she helped lead the charge. Carol, 0:00:46.417 --> 0:00:49.097 great to have you on the program. Hi, Block, thanks 0:00:49.097 --> 0:00:51.577 so much for having me. I feel like we could 0:00:51.617 --> 0:00:55.097 start with your book, if that's all right, just because 0:00:56.617 --> 0:00:59.537 right now there are some areas where I want to 0:01:00.057 --> 0:01:03.017 get conservatives to be paying a lot more attention and 0:01:03.217 --> 0:01:08.857 the indoctrination. I'm doing research right now that's going to 0:01:08.937 --> 0:01:14.777 be comparing the brainwashing of totalitarian regimes to what democrats 0:01:14.777 --> 0:01:17.817 are doing. Like, I'm actually very deep into this. I'm 0:01:17.817 --> 0:01:26.857 looking very closely at parallels and things. But that's the 0:01:26.897 --> 0:01:31.257 first chapter of the book. Tell me about Yeah, so 0:01:31.737 --> 0:01:35.937 it compares totalitarian regimes to what the left is doing 0:01:35.937 --> 0:01:41.177 in America. Right now, and it particularly compares where the 0:01:41.217 --> 0:01:44.497 totalitarian regimes of the past have always tried to sever 0:01:44.617 --> 0:01:48.417 the connection between parent and child in order to get 0:01:48.457 --> 0:01:52.617 the child well indoctrinated and to get the parent kind 0:01:52.617 --> 0:01:55.817 of removed from the whole process. As you know, I 0:01:55.857 --> 0:01:58.497 was born in the Soviet Union. This is really personal 0:01:58.577 --> 0:02:00.937 to me, and I it is a history of my 0:02:01.017 --> 0:02:05.577 family that I've heard about my whole life that that 0:02:05.737 --> 0:02:09.097 was always part of it. The removal of the child 0:02:09.177 --> 0:02:11.337 from the parents was very important, and that's how you 0:02:11.377 --> 0:02:15.617 got them. Yeah. I remember actually reading in the New 0:02:15.697 --> 0:02:18.177 York Times. It was a New York Times sort of 0:02:18.217 --> 0:02:23.617 throwback to their assessments back in the early eighties of 0:02:24.257 --> 0:02:27.977 universal childcare in the Soviet Union. And then there were 0:02:28.017 --> 0:02:30.297 people this is not something that anybody would talk about anymore, 0:02:30.297 --> 0:02:33.177 of course, but there were American liberals who are like, hey, 0:02:33.217 --> 0:02:36.857 look at the great universal childcare the Soviets had, and 0:02:36.977 --> 0:02:39.497 it was a very important part of the Soviet machine 0:02:40.497 --> 0:02:44.257 because they wanted people to well, they wanted men and 0:02:44.337 --> 0:02:47.617 women to be able to go do these factory jobs 0:02:47.777 --> 0:02:50.057 or bureaucrats or whatever it was that they were doing. 0:02:50.377 --> 0:02:53.297 So they just plopped all the kids in to train 0:02:53.377 --> 0:02:55.657 them that this horrific system that they were all in 0:02:55.777 --> 0:02:57.977 was great, and the parents got to make, you know, 0:02:58.057 --> 0:03:02.817 really poorly functioning widgets all day at the factory. So 0:03:02.857 --> 0:03:05.257 it's funny because you know, my parents, whenever they would 0:03:05.257 --> 0:03:08.097 read these kinds of stories, would be like, I would 0:03:08.177 --> 0:03:10.617 love to see one of these people who like these, 0:03:10.657 --> 0:03:12.777 you know, I mean, my parents didn't say this, but 0:03:12.857 --> 0:03:16.017 I'm saying it now, like the quinoa eating you know, 0:03:16.377 --> 0:03:20.097 five dollars coffee every morning at least you know, thirty 0:03:20.137 --> 0:03:25.697 thousand dollars preschool plus parents, see what this Soviet childcare 0:03:25.777 --> 0:03:27.817 looked like, and the people that took care of your 0:03:27.897 --> 0:03:30.817 children and what they did all day, and the food 0:03:30.857 --> 0:03:32.977 that they ate, and all of that, just the setting, 0:03:33.337 --> 0:03:36.977 the grim, gray, unhappy setting that these kids were in. 0:03:37.337 --> 0:03:39.457 My parents are always like, I'd love to see any 0:03:39.497 --> 0:03:42.657 of these proponents of the system actually send their kids 0:03:42.657 --> 0:03:46.457 to something that looked like this. And yet here we 0:03:46.497 --> 0:03:50.257 are now, I think seeing more than ever that the 0:03:50.377 --> 0:03:54.897 progression goes from why are you guys making I've really 0:03:54.897 --> 0:03:56.617 noticed this a lot more in the last few years 0:03:56.617 --> 0:03:59.257 than ever before. Why are you making such a big 0:03:59.297 --> 0:04:01.137 deal out of this? This is what the left and 0:04:01.177 --> 0:04:04.377 this is the you know, the Democratic Corps will say 0:04:04.617 --> 0:04:08.817 whenever we start to recognize something, and certainly when it 0:04:08.857 --> 0:04:13.137 comes to teaching kids things in school, and you know, 0:04:13.217 --> 0:04:18.177 meaning whether whether it's CRT or really aggressive radical gender 0:04:18.217 --> 0:04:25.137 theory stuff, or even the drag queen performances for small 0:04:25.257 --> 0:04:29.737 children with full grown men with like you know, their 0:04:29.777 --> 0:04:34.137 backsides bouncing around in the faces of small children. At first, 0:04:34.257 --> 0:04:36.297 it's why are you making such a big deal out 0:04:36.337 --> 0:04:38.177 of this? And then eventually when they do it enough, 0:04:38.497 --> 0:04:39.777 then they just start to say, yeah, this is what 0:04:39.857 --> 0:04:42.537 we do now, this is really important to us. Right. 0:04:42.657 --> 0:04:45.897 It's also the this isn't happening, it's good that this 0:04:46.137 --> 0:04:49.097 is happening. Like switch, it always starts with what are 0:04:49.137 --> 0:04:51.857 you guys talking about? This is totally not happening. Nobody's 0:04:51.897 --> 0:04:54.857 trying to take away your gas stove. And then you know, 0:04:55.017 --> 0:04:57.217 Kathy Hokel in New York, it's the other her budget, 0:04:57.497 --> 0:05:00.057 and it phases out the gas stove. Suddenly it's good 0:05:00.097 --> 0:05:02.137 that this is happening. It's good for the environment, it's 0:05:02.137 --> 0:05:04.377 good for your air, you can breathe better, et cetera. 0:05:04.897 --> 0:05:07.457 And they do this on so many different levels, and 0:05:07.657 --> 0:05:11.017 constantly there's so much gaslighting. And I have to say that, 0:05:11.137 --> 0:05:14.137 like my whole life, I've had times where people have 0:05:14.217 --> 0:05:17.297 asked me, like, doesn't this moment feel very Soviet too? 0:05:17.537 --> 0:05:19.737 And it was like the nineties and the Clinton years 0:05:19.777 --> 0:05:23.497 and whatever, and it didn't, it really didn't. But this 0:05:23.777 --> 0:05:30.737 moment does. And it's creepy and so just so the 0:05:30.897 --> 0:05:33.497 walls seemed to be closing in on our society where 0:05:33.497 --> 0:05:35.537 there's only you can only say certain things, and you 0:05:35.577 --> 0:05:38.097 can only say them a certain way, and conformity is 0:05:38.177 --> 0:05:41.457 so important, and the Left is just making our society 0:05:41.657 --> 0:05:45.057 ever more conformist. And it is very reminiscent of the 0:05:45.137 --> 0:05:47.937 stories that my family told very well. This is why 0:05:48.497 --> 0:05:52.777 with COVID, it has re oriented my whole framework for 0:05:52.857 --> 0:05:58.137 American politics. You know, before that, I felt like the 0:05:58.257 --> 0:06:03.657 Cavanaugh moment was a very important political shift that many 0:06:03.697 --> 0:06:05.937 of us experienced. I know, it's just one Supreme Court seat, 0:06:05.977 --> 0:06:09.697 one Supreme Court nomination. I was eye open, but it 0:06:09.777 --> 0:06:15.417 was opening because you had the entire Democrat machine. I 0:06:15.577 --> 0:06:20.497 call it the apparatus, right Soviet you know, apparatchicks, right, 0:06:20.577 --> 0:06:26.097 the apparatus, but the apparatus of the Democrat Party so 0:06:26.377 --> 0:06:31.177 obviously went along with the most absurd smears and lies 0:06:31.417 --> 0:06:35.417 about whether you like as jurisprudence or not. A good 0:06:35.657 --> 0:06:39.057 and honorable guy who just didn't represent what their needs 0:06:39.137 --> 0:06:43.057 of power, didn't represent what would give them power, and 0:06:43.177 --> 0:06:46.897 so they just decided to destroy him and feel good. 0:06:46.897 --> 0:06:48.417 And Kamala Harris was a part of it. I mean, 0:06:48.497 --> 0:06:50.337 Corey Booker was a part of it. There are people 0:06:51.057 --> 0:06:53.377 who are still held in high esteem by the Democrats. 0:06:53.537 --> 0:06:56.177 What they did was horrific beyond words. I also think 0:06:56.217 --> 0:06:59.457 with COVID, what we saw was now and now I 0:06:59.577 --> 0:07:03.017 worried that they would do anything to destroy you know, 0:07:03.177 --> 0:07:06.177 your your neighbor, or you or your family member if 0:07:06.217 --> 0:07:08.217 it meant that they could have more power. That's what 0:07:08.337 --> 0:07:11.537 Kavanaugh showed us. But then with with with COVID, it 0:07:11.857 --> 0:07:16.137 was they'll believe any lies, go along with them, either 0:07:16.217 --> 0:07:19.617 propagate them themselves, or be subservient to them in the 0:07:19.737 --> 0:07:23.137 cause of the collective. That felt very That felt very 0:07:23.177 --> 0:07:25.977 Soviet to me. That felt like something that I didn't 0:07:26.017 --> 0:07:28.337 expect to see in America. All the COVID madness that 0:07:28.337 --> 0:07:30.897 you and I've talked about so much. So we have 0:07:30.977 --> 0:07:33.337 a COVID chapter in the book, and you're absolutely right. 0:07:33.497 --> 0:07:37.897 And there were moments like, if Donald Trump wants schools 0:07:37.897 --> 0:07:40.417 to open, then the Democrats don't want schools to open, 0:07:40.657 --> 0:07:44.097 and the Democrats were against public schools. I mean, when 0:07:44.177 --> 0:07:46.817 did that happen? How did that shift happen? And it 0:07:47.097 --> 0:07:50.337 was only despite him, And it's wild to look back 0:07:50.377 --> 0:07:53.937 at this now and see that their special interest group, 0:07:54.017 --> 0:07:58.057 allies and the teachers' unions got them to support closing 0:07:58.177 --> 0:08:01.697 down public schools while private schools stayed open. It was 0:08:01.777 --> 0:08:04.937 just mind boggling to look back at this and see 0:08:04.977 --> 0:08:08.417 that this actually happened. So, yeah, I agree. I agree 0:08:08.457 --> 0:08:11.417 that it's they'll do anything in the pursuit of power, 0:08:11.697 --> 0:08:14.977 anything to indoctrinate these kids. And I don't see a 0:08:15.017 --> 0:08:17.257 bottom here. Yeah, I was gonna ask you, do you 0:08:17.417 --> 0:08:21.777 think do you believe that a lot of the people 0:08:23.137 --> 0:08:28.537 Randy Winegarden perfect example, Does she actually believe it when 0:08:28.657 --> 0:08:32.297 she says that she's doing things for the benefit of children? You, 0:08:32.297 --> 0:08:34.457 I mean, you and I agree she's not. But does 0:08:34.537 --> 0:08:38.057 she think does she think she is? Or is it 0:08:38.217 --> 0:08:43.817 all just a con a lie, an abuse, propaganda meant 0:08:43.857 --> 0:08:46.177 in the pursuit of power for the left and for 0:08:46.537 --> 0:08:50.057 the collectivists. So it's hard to say, especially with her. 0:08:50.257 --> 0:08:52.817 She's sort of George Costanza. A lie is not a 0:08:52.897 --> 0:08:56.137 lie if you believe it kind of situation because she 0:08:56.457 --> 0:08:59.937 now says that she was for opening schools, and once 0:09:00.017 --> 0:09:02.897 you say that, once you say that, you're Randy Winegarden 0:09:02.937 --> 0:09:05.377 and you wanted to open schools all along. She says 0:09:05.417 --> 0:09:08.017 that she's been wanting to open schools since April twenty twenty, 0:09:08.577 --> 0:09:11.497 and you believe this, really believe this. I mean, it's 0:09:11.697 --> 0:09:15.377 sociopathic behavior. She did not want schools to open school 0:09:15.457 --> 0:09:18.017 year twenty twenty, but it's important to remember she did 0:09:18.097 --> 0:09:21.097 not want schools to open school year twenty twenty one either. 0:09:21.297 --> 0:09:23.977 She wanted them closed for the second school year. And 0:09:24.737 --> 0:09:27.417 you know, thank god for Ronda Santis and Florida leading 0:09:27.497 --> 0:09:30.017 the way on opening schools because the rest of the 0:09:30.097 --> 0:09:32.377 country might be locked down for that year as well. 0:09:32.737 --> 0:09:35.017 They would have just not had an example to look 0:09:35.097 --> 0:09:36.697 to and been like, well, this is how it works, 0:09:36.777 --> 0:09:38.457 this is how schools open and kids get to go 0:09:38.537 --> 0:09:40.017 back to school. And we don't have to listen to 0:09:40.177 --> 0:09:42.617 Mandy Weingarten. I want to ask you about the CNN 0:09:42.737 --> 0:09:45.977 syndrome in a second, Carol, But first I do have 0:09:46.057 --> 0:09:49.297 take a moment for our sponsor here.

Speaking of gear, 0:10:56.897 --> 0:10:59.857 before I get into the CNN the CNN Effect, Carol 0:11:01.617 --> 0:11:03.617 carry my new wife, which we'll talk more about this 0:11:03.777 --> 0:11:06.857 very exciting, just got married. She saw me today and 0:11:06.897 --> 0:11:08.257 I didn't even think about this. She saw me and 0:11:08.337 --> 0:11:10.857 she's like, you need to change and I would like 0:11:11.017 --> 0:11:14.537 why she said, because it looks like Zelenski is walking 0:11:14.577 --> 0:11:18.097 around our apartment wearing a kind of olive green T 0:11:18.297 --> 0:11:21.897 shirt right now. And I started walking and then like 0:11:21.977 --> 0:11:24.297 this morning we're having coffee together. I was like, come on, 0:11:24.497 --> 0:11:26.577 what do you mean, like I need to fight against 0:11:26.617 --> 0:11:28.137 the Rashians And I was sorry. She was like, now 0:11:28.217 --> 0:11:30.297 you're really freaking me out right, like you get like 0:11:30.377 --> 0:11:34.697 a Zelenski thing going. But oh, come on, that's pretty close. 0:11:34.777 --> 0:11:37.697 I thought, you know, he's very long, he's down here, 0:11:37.737 --> 0:11:40.817 and he has like this very gruff anyway, I don't 0:11:40.817 --> 0:11:43.137 see you actually former Soviet you under you know, like 0:11:43.217 --> 0:11:46.297 the the intricacies of the accent. Um. I guess my 0:11:46.337 --> 0:11:48.697 Fauci and my Zelenski probably sound a little too much alike. 0:11:49.017 --> 0:11:51.937 But yeah, now if you wear an olive like drab 0:11:52.217 --> 0:11:57.377 T shirt anywhere, um, you you're apparently channeling channeling Zelenski. Okay, 0:11:57.457 --> 0:12:02.297 so the CNN the CNN effect. Um. Also, wait before 0:12:02.337 --> 0:12:03.737 I get to that, what do you think about these 0:12:04.417 --> 0:12:06.257 wedding bands that are made of So I have a 0:12:06.457 --> 0:12:08.977 you know, the platinum wedding ring that i'll wear now 0:12:09.017 --> 0:12:10.337 when I go out, and all that sort of stuff. 0:12:10.337 --> 0:12:13.777 I guess I like these just the sort of rubber 0:12:14.777 --> 0:12:17.337 silicone ring that you wear. It's a symbol. It's just 0:12:17.377 --> 0:12:20.577 more comfortable on your hand. But she's like, you've never 0:12:20.657 --> 0:12:23.217 heard its great? I just do you know you young 0:12:23.297 --> 0:12:26.017 people today? I don't know what you're up to, okay, 0:12:26.057 --> 0:12:27.777 because well, you know, if if I were to go, 0:12:27.937 --> 0:12:30.137 let's say, if I was to go whale on my 0:12:30.257 --> 0:12:32.937 pecks at the gym, which could definitely use some some 0:12:33.097 --> 0:12:36.897 whaling these days. Uh, if you're wearing like an actual 0:12:37.017 --> 0:12:39.897 gold or silver or platinum ring. You know, it can 0:12:39.977 --> 0:12:42.297 get scuffed up, and it can get kind of you 0:12:42.377 --> 0:12:45.857 know it, you know, clinks against the metal, whereas with 0:12:46.017 --> 0:12:48.377 this you can go lift. But then she's like, well, 0:12:48.417 --> 0:12:49.897 are you just gonna wear it for the gym only, 0:12:50.057 --> 0:12:52.577 or you're gonna wear it all the time? And this 0:12:52.777 --> 0:12:54.937 is kind of you know. Look, I didn't even wear 0:12:54.937 --> 0:12:57.937 a tie at my wedding, So I'm just increasingly approaching 0:12:58.057 --> 0:13:01.897 this functional comfort for everything in life. I think functional 0:13:01.977 --> 0:13:05.617 comfort is essential. Uh, and I for you know, so 0:13:05.737 --> 0:13:09.097 I'm waging a one man war against the necktie. I 0:13:09.177 --> 0:13:11.497 will tell everybody's suits are not suits for men. I 0:13:11.577 --> 0:13:13.697 have custom made suits, only a couple of them, but 0:13:14.097 --> 0:13:17.257 not comfortable. They're not as comfortable as other things that 0:13:17.337 --> 0:13:20.057 I can just wear. And I think you're right on ties. 0:13:20.217 --> 0:13:23.857 My husband is overties. Also, we were just talking about 0:13:23.897 --> 0:13:26.497 my daughter's having a bottom, so soon none of none 0:13:26.497 --> 0:13:27.897 of the men and my family are wearing a tie. 0:13:28.297 --> 0:13:32.177 Some fun history for everybody listening. The tie is a 0:13:32.297 --> 0:13:37.177 holdover from the court of Louis the fourteenth, who hired 0:13:37.377 --> 0:13:43.257 a core of mercenaries from Croatia. They were called the cravati, 0:13:43.897 --> 0:13:46.097 and one way that they would distinguish themselves. This is 0:13:46.337 --> 0:13:49.937 when battlefield distinguishing was much more important than battlefield camouflage, 0:13:50.137 --> 0:13:52.537 which also is why you had, for example, the lands 0:13:52.537 --> 0:13:56.417 Connects of Germany who had very brightly colored colored clothing 0:13:56.417 --> 0:13:58.817 and that became in a battle. Imagine somebody with bright 0:13:58.857 --> 0:14:01.577 orange and red and green. And they would also wear 0:14:01.617 --> 0:14:04.377 a very prominent cod piece, which there's a whole Freudian 0:14:04.537 --> 0:14:07.337 aspect to that, I guess. But the but back to 0:14:07.417 --> 0:14:10.577 Louis the fourteenth The lands Connects, by the way, saved 0:14:11.697 --> 0:14:14.377 first Siege of Vienna. Talk about that another time. You know, 0:14:14.497 --> 0:14:16.977 Christendom was about to get overrun by the four forces 0:14:16.977 --> 0:14:19.577 of the Ottoman Empire. But you go to fourteenth cent 0:14:19.737 --> 0:14:23.697 I'm sorry, Louis the fourteenth and uh, he hired the 0:14:23.817 --> 0:14:27.497 cravati to be in the service of the French military, 0:14:27.897 --> 0:14:30.417 and they wore a brightly colored cloth around their neck, 0:14:30.497 --> 0:14:32.857 which came to be known as a cravat or the 0:14:32.977 --> 0:14:36.897 French cravat the necktie. And so now hundreds of years later, 0:14:37.377 --> 0:14:41.577 I'm supposed to have some you know, some portrait device 0:14:41.697 --> 0:14:43.777 around my neck. On a hot day down in Florida, 0:14:43.857 --> 0:14:46.617 because people says, it's just ridiculous, It's just ridiculous. No, 0:14:48.337 --> 0:14:50.177 that's right, thank you. I like that you think this 0:14:50.217 --> 0:14:51.857 is because people are like, oh, they're they're horrified of this. 0:14:51.897 --> 0:14:54.977 I think I think the cutter clothing and looking good 0:14:55.017 --> 0:14:56.537 and all that is, you know, it is a good thing, right, 0:14:56.577 --> 0:14:59.497 people should try. But I also think that another one, 0:14:59.857 --> 0:15:03.057 another one, Carol, women who were telling me all the time, 0:15:04.737 --> 0:15:07.457 tie you know, another one. No, no, but this is 0:15:07.457 --> 0:15:10.417 for the ladies out there that we're the super hainful 0:15:10.457 --> 0:15:13.217 shoes and they're walking out. I'm like, look right there, 0:15:15.177 --> 0:15:17.097 you see this is crazy to me. You know, I 0:15:17.217 --> 0:15:18.657 used to be a single man. I would go on 0:15:18.857 --> 0:15:21.097 dates and I would I would be told, oh, we're 0:15:21.257 --> 0:15:23.097 let's get a drinking around the corner. It's two blocks 0:15:23.137 --> 0:15:25.577 away in New York City. And it's like, you know, oh, well, 0:15:25.617 --> 0:15:27.537 can we get an uber. I'm like, no, it's two 0:15:27.577 --> 0:15:30.017 blocks away, we're gonna get a car. They go, oh, 0:15:30.097 --> 0:15:32.817 but these shoes they got, like the the lubotan you know, 0:15:32.977 --> 0:15:37.857 the red soles or whatever you like, the uncomfortable shoes. 0:15:38.137 --> 0:15:41.817 I love high heels. I'm all about it. And it's 0:15:41.857 --> 0:15:44.537 funny because I like love posting when I when we 0:15:44.617 --> 0:15:46.057 go you know, if you've seen me do this, when 0:15:46.097 --> 0:15:47.777 we go out we get a picture, I'm always like, 0:15:47.857 --> 0:15:49.737 get the shoes in the picture, and that's you know, 0:15:49.897 --> 0:15:52.137 it makes a better picture. But also I love my shoes. 0:15:52.457 --> 0:15:54.777 Turns out there's this like creepy subset online of like 0:15:54.857 --> 0:15:58.017 men who look for like women's feet. Unfortunate very that 0:15:58.137 --> 0:16:00.737 I can't be showing off my shoes as often. But 0:16:01.457 --> 0:16:03.257 you know, I like the nice shoes and they're not 0:16:03.377 --> 0:16:05.177 always going to be comfortable, and some of them I 0:16:05.297 --> 0:16:09.257 refer to as sitting shoes. Sometimes I wear a sitting 0:16:09.337 --> 0:16:14.937 shoe special events, you know, you can do your ring 0:16:15.057 --> 0:16:17.097 and your no necktie. You can stay away from the 0:16:18.937 --> 0:16:20.897 I sound like I sound like a bum. And the 0:16:20.977 --> 0:16:22.377 more I look by the way back of my self 0:16:22.417 --> 0:16:23.857 the Carol, then I'm like, wow, this really does look 0:16:23.857 --> 0:16:26.857 like a Zelenski T shirt. I gotta change this up 0:16:26.897 --> 0:16:29.857 a little bit. Um okay, fair, fair enough. Next time, 0:16:29.857 --> 0:16:31.617 I'm gonna wear a shirt with a collar, because that 0:16:32.137 --> 0:16:34.857 that's somehow, that's somehow fair. I also love telling people 0:16:34.857 --> 0:16:36.537 all the time about not that I'm some fat I 0:16:36.617 --> 0:16:39.417 love history. I'm not a fashion guy. But all of 0:16:39.537 --> 0:16:43.657 the different fashion trends that actually come to us from 0:16:43.977 --> 0:16:47.257 the military is is that in itself And there probably 0:16:47.377 --> 0:16:49.097 is a book about this, but somebody should write it. 0:16:49.457 --> 0:16:51.377 You know, people walk around in trench coats, like, what 0:16:51.497 --> 0:16:53.377 are they cold? A trench coat? Well gee, you know, 0:16:53.577 --> 0:16:55.097 but I mean there's so much more than that. I 0:16:55.137 --> 0:16:58.937 mean even the British in khaki and where does Madras 0:16:59.097 --> 0:17:01.857 come from? And all these different things it's all tied 0:17:01.937 --> 0:17:05.337 into remains very hip with the kids. Oh yeah, well, 0:17:05.377 --> 0:17:08.977 of course camouflage is very much, you know, a fashion trend, 0:17:09.017 --> 0:17:11.617 but there's so much of it. Um anyway, I don't 0:17:11.657 --> 0:17:14.377 want to turn this into a hole. I do have 0:17:14.457 --> 0:17:17.017 a fun one for you, so you ready for this one, 0:17:17.057 --> 0:17:18.937 and then I promise we'll stop talking fashion. But you're 0:17:19.017 --> 0:17:21.697 like a very fashionable lady. Whenever I go out, there's 0:17:21.737 --> 0:17:23.657 like there's a group of us that goes out in 0:17:23.697 --> 0:17:25.817 South Florida together. We all hang out and Carol and 0:17:25.857 --> 0:17:28.897 there will be a big squad of of conservative media people. 0:17:29.377 --> 0:17:31.497 You know, one, everybody loves Carol and two you know 0:17:31.657 --> 0:17:34.457 she's just you know, she she's got some she's got 0:17:34.537 --> 0:17:36.417 some some fashion sets. You know. The rest of us 0:17:36.457 --> 0:17:38.577 were a little uh you know, you know, I'm dressed 0:17:38.617 --> 0:17:40.937 like I'm a little I'm a little Zelenski want to 0:17:40.937 --> 0:17:43.377 be over here. Um yeah, but you're a wife. She 0:17:43.577 --> 0:17:45.897 dressed his real day. Oh she's amazing. Yeah she knows. 0:17:45.937 --> 0:17:47.857 Whether that's why you two sit together and you look 0:17:47.897 --> 0:17:50.257 at the peasants across the table, you know, the guys 0:17:50.337 --> 0:17:52.057 that we're all out, you know, you know, because you know, 0:17:52.177 --> 0:17:54.377 you know who rocks the comfortable stuff. Your husband. I 0:17:54.417 --> 0:17:56.137 gotta say, he likes to look. He likes to be 0:17:56.177 --> 0:17:57.937 a comfortable guy too. Where to get I've never seen 0:17:58.057 --> 0:18:00.217 him in the necktie. Does he do the necktie? Oh no, no, 0:18:00.417 --> 0:18:02.097 he does not do. Next side, That's what I'm telling you, 0:18:02.617 --> 0:18:06.657 You and him. He does not care. We have we 0:18:06.737 --> 0:18:09.497 have solidarity. So the tricorn hat, though, you know, we 0:18:09.537 --> 0:18:13.177 always think if someone puts on a tricorn hat, they think, oh, 0:18:13.377 --> 0:18:17.017 like George Washington, the American Revolution, you know, the So 0:18:17.137 --> 0:18:20.577 it's fascinate because people think it's the most American of things, 0:18:20.657 --> 0:18:22.777 and in a sense it is. But the tricorn hat 0:18:22.817 --> 0:18:26.377 actually comes to us because of Spanish mercenaries fighting in 0:18:26.577 --> 0:18:33.057 Flanders modern day Belgium. And they had this wide Spanish 0:18:33.137 --> 0:18:35.417 hat that would get in the way when they were 0:18:35.457 --> 0:18:37.857 doing maneuvers with their muskets, and so they began to 0:18:38.017 --> 0:18:40.577 flip up the brim on both sides so that when 0:18:40.577 --> 0:18:43.137 they were on parade ground and moving their rifle around, 0:18:43.417 --> 0:18:45.537 it wouldn't actually knock the hat off their head. And 0:18:45.617 --> 0:18:48.177 then that became a style, and the British were fighting 0:18:48.217 --> 0:18:50.497 against them, saw this and realized that makes sense. They 0:18:50.657 --> 0:18:53.057 started the tricorn hat, which we obviously got from the 0:18:53.057 --> 0:18:55.777 British in the first place, and that is now as 0:18:55.817 --> 0:18:59.337 American is apple pie, except it comes from Spanish mercenaries. 0:19:00.137 --> 0:19:04.897 So history loving nine year old, I think this is 0:19:04.937 --> 0:19:06.777 the only one he'll ever want to listen to. But 0:19:06.897 --> 0:19:09.897 I imagine he'll give you at least one. Well, actually, act, 0:19:10.097 --> 0:19:12.697 surely that's not what happened. This is what happened, because 0:19:12.697 --> 0:19:15.297 that's oh nice, that's fine, that's fair. I will say, 0:19:15.657 --> 0:19:17.897 if he wants their nerd nerd out, you got to 0:19:17.937 --> 0:19:22.417 give him the buck. Sex didn't show shields high where 0:19:22.537 --> 0:19:25.537 we do the real Dracula. The history of lad Drakul 0:19:25.737 --> 0:19:29.937 from the sixteenth century. Fascinating guy, fascinating period of history. 0:19:30.337 --> 0:19:32.737 I did the Siege of Malta, the Fall of Constantinople. 0:19:32.737 --> 0:19:34.937 I sit around doing these things, which is probably why 0:19:34.977 --> 0:19:36.577 I don't. Yeah, I'll send them to you your if 0:19:36.617 --> 0:19:39.977 your son really loves history, they're very he would love 0:19:40.097 --> 0:19:43.497 to talk about it, listen to it. He's like questioning 0:19:43.537 --> 0:19:46.377 these history competitions. Yeah, I'll send it to him and 0:19:46.697 --> 0:19:48.297 and then he can send his critique and you can. 0:19:48.417 --> 0:19:49.937 You can give it to me gently so that I, 0:19:50.097 --> 0:19:52.977 you know, afterwards, won't feel sad about myself. But I 0:19:53.137 --> 0:19:55.097 was going to ask the CNN effect that's coming out, 0:19:55.337 --> 0:19:58.257 But my pillow, do you have my pillows?
