1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Welcome in Thursday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton show, Happy 2 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: June Team. It was a year ago at a celebration 3 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: on the White House the lawn that went megaviral of 4 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden freezing that I've already shared with all of 5 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: you from my Twitter account. If you haven't and can't 6 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: remember where we were a year ago, rejoice. We have 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: come a long way America in one year, from a 8 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: president standing on the south lawn of the White House 9 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: completely unaware of what was going on during a supremely 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: awkward concert at the White House to Donald Trump ruling 11 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: the country in a fabulous manner through the first half 12 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: of his four year term. First half of the first 13 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: year of his four year term, we will give you 14 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: the absolute latest on Iran and Israel. We will dive 15 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: into many of the biggest stories of the day. Because 16 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: I am working, and I bet a lot of you 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: are working. I am back home in Nashville. Had an 18 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: amazing time up in Washington, DC, met so many of you. 19 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: Appreciate Senator Haggerty's office for allowing my son to be 20 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: an intern up there. He had an incredible time. Congress 21 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: is out today and they are out tomorrow is my understanding, 22 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: which is why we are back, because why celebrate Juneteenth 23 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: for one day when you could celebrate it for two 24 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: and be paid by the American taxpayer to do so. 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to your government now, I bet most of you 26 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: are not taking Juneteenth off. But I did think that 27 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: we should honor Juneteenth as one would by playing what 28 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: went megaviral. We shared it with you yesterday on the 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: social media accounts. When you actually dive in to the View, 30 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: I would maintain that it is the dumbest program that 31 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: has ever been allowed to appear daily on television for 32 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,919 Speaker 1: some time, and the arguments just keep getting more ridiculous. 33 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: So there was a discussion. I want to give credit 34 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: to one of the ladies on the View, Alissa Fara 35 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: Griffin has family of Iranian descent. I believe her father 36 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 1: is Iranian. I could be wrong on that, guys, will 37 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: you check that in the studio, but she has a 38 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: connection to Iran and in her family background. And they 39 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: were discussing freedoms for women in Iran, and just to 40 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: reinforce in case you are not aware, in Iran women 41 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: have to a large extent no human rights at least 42 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: comparable to what would exist in the West, for instance, 43 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: and I believe they've only changed this recently. Women were 44 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: not even allowed to go watch the Iranian soccer team play. 45 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: The Iranian soccer stadium only allowed men to go watch soccer. Now, 46 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: this is a big deal. Soccer is a huge sport 47 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: all over the world, but the most popular sport in Iran. 48 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: Women weren't allowed to go in there. Sounds somewhat ridiculous, 49 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: but that is true. I think they now allow a 50 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: handful of women into the stadium. I think they have 51 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 1: progressed there. You can be beaten and arrested if you 52 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: are not covered correctly as you walk the streets of Iran. 53 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: There have been protests from women who say, hey, can 54 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: we just not have to wear a jab? Can we 55 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: just uncover our hair? Can we allow our faces to 56 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: be seen? And the religious police will walk around in 57 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: Iran and arrest and or beat women who defy dress 58 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: codes all over the country. So whatever you think of 59 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: life in America, women comparably have it pretty good here. 60 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: And honestly, this was one of my biggest issues with 61 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: the Megan Rapinos on the US women's soccer team, you know, 62 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: for the Women's World Cup. You can basically pick every 63 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: winner just by analyzing human rights in the country, because 64 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: while our women go on the nash international stage and 65 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: rip America, the reason why our women are super talented 66 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: at soccer is because they can wear shorts and they 67 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: have basic human rights. Is it a surprise that the 68 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: women who have the most human rights would also be 69 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: the best at athletics. And also this speaks to the 70 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: incredible wealth of America because in general, it is a 71 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: luxury to be able to put your kids into sports 72 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: and allow them to develop as athletes. Most really athletic 73 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: men get noticed and can have success around the world 74 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 1: because male athletics is still a moneymaker to a large 75 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: extent in much of the world, women's athletics to a 76 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: large extent is not in most of the world. And 77 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: so it is an incredible sign of both human rights 78 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: and the wealth of this nation that we have tens 79 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: of millions of girls who are playing elite level soccer 80 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: in this country. And so I wish that the US 81 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: women's soccer team when they're on the global stage, instead 82 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: of denigrating the United States and refusing to go visit 83 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: the White House after they won the World Cup in 84 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen and Trump was in office. I wish they 85 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: had said, hey, we may not agree on every political 86 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: issue in the United States, but what we certainly agree 87 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: on is women should be able to compete at the 88 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: absolute highest level of athletics. And the reason why we're 89 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: having success on the global stage is actually a reflection 90 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: of America's embrace of human rights, and we wish women 91 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: around the world had the same rights that women have 92 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: in the United States. That's a really strong argument. I 93 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: think it would have been compelling. I think that there 94 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: would have been a lot of little girls all over 95 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: the world who heard that and were even more aspirational 96 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: to be great at sports, but also to look up 97 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: to the United States women who are great at sports 98 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: and could be their role models. Going for instead, Meghan 99 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: Rapino said, Hey, if you're a man and you want 100 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: to play women soccer, I think you should be able 101 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: to do so. She lifted the latter, not unlike what 102 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: we just saw some own biles do in her tweet 103 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: at Riley Gains. Okay, so they're discussing how life is 104 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: in Iran. Alyssa Fara Griffin, who directly knows how the 105 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: women of Iran are treated based on her family's background. 106 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: Is trying to make the point that Israel has basic 107 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: human rights, and in fact, I haven't heard very many 108 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: people react to this. But you know, one of the 109 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: things that they had to cancel in Israel because of 110 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: all the missiles coming in from Iran the Pride March. 111 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: The Pride March Israel, I believe, is the only country 112 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: in the entire Middle East that would even have a 113 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: Pride march because gay people otherwise get thrown off the 114 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: roofs of buildings and beheaded in many different Middle Eastern countries, 115 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: which is why Gays for Gaza is one of the 116 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: dumbest American political arguments of all time. But they were 117 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: trying to have a conversation about that, and whoope, Goldberg 118 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: took it over and said she doesn't think black people 119 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: in America have it better than the average woman in Iran. 120 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: This was actually what ABC aired yesterday, Play the cut. 121 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: I think it's very different in the United States in 122 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five than it is. 123 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 1: To live in around You're not for everybody, not every black. 124 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: Let me tell you about being in this country. This 125 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: is the greatest country in the world. But yeah, I 126 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: know that I know that, and we all know that. 127 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 3: But every day we are worried. Do we have to 128 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: be worried about our kids? Are their kids going to 129 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 3: get shot because they're running through somebody's neighborhood. 130 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: Nobody wants to diminish them. Very real problems we have 131 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: in this country. Wells intent, it's important we remember there 132 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 2: are places much darker than this country, and people deserve right. 133 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 3: Not everybody feels that way. Not everybody feels that way. Listen, 134 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. You know when you think about the fact 135 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 3: that we were we got the vote in nineteen sixty. 136 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: Five, Okay, they don't have free and fair elections in Iran. 137 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: It's not even the same universe. They can't go out 138 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: of their house. 139 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: You know what. 140 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: There's no way I can make you understand. 141 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: There's no way I can make you understand because you're 142 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: a moron. Whoopee Goldberg. You make eight million dollars a 143 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: year to go on a show, to not do basic research, 144 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: to have no idea how things are around the rest 145 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: of the world. To compare how black people live in 146 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: America in twenty twenty five with how women live in 147 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: Iran in twenty twenty five, is so brain dead that honestly, 148 00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: I think that the view has become so toxic for 149 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: just its stupidity that ABC News has to be looking 150 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: around how much money could they possibly make off this 151 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: show versus how much brand equity are they losing. I 152 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: just can't believe that anyone could be this dumb. And 153 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: by the way, it's not just Whoopy Goldberg. There are 154 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: lots of people all over the United States who have 155 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: no conception for how good we all have it in 156 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: this country. And I really do wish a part of 157 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: me does that every American had to spend two years 158 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: sort of like the Mormon Mission. A lot of you 159 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: out there listening in Utah. You're part of your religious faith. 160 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: Your kids will go on a two year mission. They 161 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: don't know where they're going to go all over the world. 162 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: If we had two years of service required for every 163 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: American teenager at eighteen years old, and you had to 164 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: go to a third world country and actually try to 165 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: make that third world country better, and you had to 166 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: live there, and you had to see how people in 167 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: that country lived. When you got on an airplane and 168 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: you came back here, you would kiss the ground when 169 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: you stepped off that airplane. There is no conception, by 170 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: and large among huge populations in the United States of 171 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: how incredibly fortunate we all are to live here. Does 172 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: not mean that the United States is perfect. No country 173 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: created by humans in the history of mankind has ever 174 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: been perfect. But if you had to choose right now, 175 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: there's a great analogy that Warren Buffett has says, if 176 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 1: you want to contemplate, I think it's such a good one. 177 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: If you want to contemplate how you should feel relative 178 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: to the rest of the world, Imagine that there was 179 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: a huge vase and there were seven billion marbles in it. 180 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: It's roughly the population of the world, not one person 181 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: in the United States. And if you drew a marble 182 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: out of that seven billion, not one person in the 183 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: entire United States should ever risk changing places. Right, It's 184 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: a great analogy. If your kids are out there, if 185 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: they don't understand gratitude, one of the most powerful emotions 186 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: there is. If you had to take a marble out 187 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,359 Speaker 1: of that seven billion, and you changed places with whatever 188 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,959 Speaker 1: marble you drew, not one person in the United States 189 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: should ever make that trade, because the chances are that 190 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: you would go to a vastly inferior country with vastly 191 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: less human rights and economic resources. And so when I 192 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: see people like Whoopi Goldberg, who are making millions of 193 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: dollars a year, who have become fabulously wealthy, arguing that 194 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: the average black person in America is somehow in worse 195 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: place than the women of Iran and even the men, 196 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: it is so incomprehensibly dumb that I think ABC News 197 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: should be looking at a show like that and saying, boy, 198 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: I know it's called the View, but we should have 199 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: a standard of basic intelligence, and our show hasn't met it. 200 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: Send Whoopee Goldberg to do the show from the average 201 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: country in the third world and make her live like 202 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: the people do there. First of all, she wouldn't do it, 203 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: But I do think it would be important and clarifying 204 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: in many ways to actually know of which you are speaking, 205 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: as opposed to trying to denigrate and pull down the 206 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: app But I do think it would be important and 207 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: clarifying in many ways to actually know of which you 208 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: are speaking, as opposed to trying to denigrate and pull 209 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: down the aspirations, hopes and realities of so many young 210 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: people that might be watching that show and believe her 211 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: that they have no chance for success and then want 212 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: to marinate in the idea of their own victimization because 213 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: they aren't aware of how truly fortunate they are no 214 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: matter what your background is to live in the United 215 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: States of America today, So happy Juneteenth.

Find it on the 245 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 5: iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. 246 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: Walking back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show team says, 247 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: by the way, I asked for them to look this up. 248 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: Team says that that Alissa Fara Griffin has a background. 249 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: Her dad is of Syrian and Lebanese descent, not Persian. 250 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: But my point stands that she has a Middle Eastern 251 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: background and so probably has a little bit better of 252 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: an idea of what life is like in the Middle 253 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: East based on her family than Woopy Goldberg would. And 254 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: some of you can say, Okay, well, why does it 255 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: matter what Whoopy Goldberg is saying there? I think it 256 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: matters immensely because so many kids who don't know any better, 257 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: their knuckleheads, they think that they are victims. If you 258 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: grow up believing, oh, I can't accomplish anything, the world 259 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: is allied against me, everything is so unfortunate for me 260 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: in America in twenty twenty five, it takes a lot 261 00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 1: to break you out of that worldview. The reality is 262 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: that no matter how you became a citizen or how 263 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: long your family has become citizens of the United States, 264 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: there is virtually no place in the world where it 265 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: would be better for you to live than the United 266 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: States right now. And so when you embrace this idea 267 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: of victim culture oppression, you end up, I think, stifling 268 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: the ability of young people to have success. And since 269 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: it's juneteenth, I've been hammering this and I don't know 270 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: why more people don't hammer it. You know, I can't 271 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: guarantee you're going to be rich. It's hard to get rich. 272 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: You have to work, you have to get some good fortune. 273 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: There's lots of things that go into you becoming wealthy. 274 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: But every single person listening to me right now can 275 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: guarantee they are not poor if they do the following. 276 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: I hammer this home. I wish we had teachers hammering 277 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: at home more often. Graduate from high school, get a job, 278 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: get married, don't have a kid until after you get married. 279 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: All of those things. If you do those four things, 280 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 1: which are very reasonable to be able to do, that's 281 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: a very aspirationally attainable goal. No matter where you live, 282 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: you have a zero percent virtual chance of being poor. 283 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: Can't guarantee you're going to be rich, can guarantee you're 284 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: not going to be poor. Imagine if what Pee Goldberg 285 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: went around on the view making that argument to young kids. Hey, 286 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: everybody's not going to have a perfect setup. Everybody's born 287 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: with different opportunities based on the economic realities of their 288 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: parents of the place that they're born. Graduate high school, 289 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: get a job, get married, have kids after you get married. 290 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: You have a zero percent chance, virtually in America today 291 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: of being poor. That seems like a very aspirational thing 292 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: that every kid should be taught, particularly young men. I'm 293 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: going to tee off on this some today because I've 294 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: been thinking about it a lot, particularly young men who 295 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: feel lost in the toxic masculinity era and don't really 296 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: know how to become men. Summers when we get most 297 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 1: of the outdoor repair work done on houses, Longer daylight hours, 298 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: better weather ideal for all those repairs to get done. 299 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: Also the time of the year when the leaf filter 300 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: technician and installers are the busiest. These are men and 301 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: women who make your home gutters free clear Forever I 302 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: mentioned that you may hear screaming in the background, I 303 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,959 Speaker 1: promise my kids are all right. They're home now for summer. 304 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: They are playing video games downstairs right now. At some 305 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: point during the day, they're probably going to be outside 306 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: hitting whiffleballs, throwing footballs around, being busy, being active. And 307 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: some of those whiffleballs and some of those other different 308 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: balls that they're playing with are gonna end up in 309 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: my gutter. And when they end up in my gutter, 310 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: they get clogged and I have to go find them. 311 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: You can get hooked up.

Trent in Kansas says, Hey, 323 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: maybe whoope should go visit Iran and try to come back. 324 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: Listen to cut DD. Hey Clay, this is Trent to Kansas. 325 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 6: I think you should challenge wo Be Goldberg to go 326 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 6: visit Iran and if she makes it back, to come 327 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 6: back and she can then explain to the people on 328 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 6: her idiotic TV show just what a Ran is actually like. 329 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: That would actually be fantastic. Again, I say this for everyone. 330 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: If you are fortunate enough to be able to afford 331 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: international travel and I get it is very expensive. I 332 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: think one of the best things you can do for 333 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: your kids is actually show them through missionary work through travel, 334 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: what much of the rest of the world has to 335 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: live like. This is one reason that I love to travel. 336 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: I want to see as many countries in my life 337 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: as I can, to just experience the fulsomeness of what 338 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: world life represents. You guys know, I'm a history nerd. 339 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: There's lots of places I want to go that have 340 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: been historically relevant throughout world history. There's tons of places 341 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 1: I would love to go that I still haven't been. 342 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: I'd never been to Italy till two years ago. I 343 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: took my whole family over. Was an unbelievable experience. I 344 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: wanted to go to Australia. I took my family to Australia. 345 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: My kids are getting older. One reason I'm on the 346 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: road and try to travel as much as I can 347 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 1: now is once they get to be eighteen, get to 348 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: be adults, they go off to college. I don't know 349 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 1: how they're going to want to spend their time. I 350 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: hope they're still going to want to travel with mom 351 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: and dad, and maybe as they realize how much travel costs, 352 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: Mom and dad's vacations start to sound a lot better. 353 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: I bet there's a lot of you who are parents 354 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: and grandparents that have experienced that. So I hope they're 355 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: still going to want to be able to travel. But 356 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: even if they don't once they're over eighteen, I want 357 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 1: to have helped to show them the places around the 358 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: world and what it's like. I want to take them 359 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: to Israel. I did the show from Israel in December. 360 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: I think it would be incredibly eye opening. And it's 361 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: not always the things that you expect to be incredibly 362 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: influential to you that are I figured that walking around 363 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: in the Old City of Rusalem and seeing the Christian 364 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: and Jewish and Muslim religious sites would be incredibly moving, 365 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: and it was. But you know, some of the things 366 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: that you don't anticipate are what stick with you. In Israel, 367 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: eighteen year olds have aks on their back and are 368 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: serving for their country. You know. Here, super popular Alabama 369 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: sorority girl TikTok, I'm told it's all about rush. Oh 370 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: what outfits am I gonna wear? 371 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 7: Oh? 372 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: How pretty am I? Look? At all the things I 373 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: can do with my makeup and my hair and all 374 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: these different things and It's wildly popular Alabama. If you 375 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: don't know your kids, your grandkids, ask them about it, 376 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: especially if they're girls. The Alabama Sorority TikTok thing is 377 00:22:55,640 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: a absolute, huge, massively popular social media event. And I 378 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: think they even made team can look it up. I 379 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: think they even made a documentary about it or a 380 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: reality show about it. Just the process of going to 381 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: the University of Alabama and rushing to be a member 382 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: of a sorority. All these eighteen year old girls in Israel, 383 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: the same eighteen year old Southeastern Conference sorority girls are 384 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: instead in green fatigues with aks on their back. Because 385 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: every eighteen year old in Israel, by and large, unless 386 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: you're supremely religious, which is its own controversy there, now 387 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: goes immediately into the armed forces and puts their life 388 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: on the line to defend their country. You join the IDF, 389 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: and I couldn't stop thinking about that. We're standing in 390 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: line for coffee and these eighteen or nineteen year old 391 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: girls walk in in their uniforms with aks on their 392 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: back and stand in line to get coffee. Totally normal. 393 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: There same eighteen year old girls here that are losing 394 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: their minds over whether they have the right shoes to 395 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: get in the right sorority at the University of Alabama. 396 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to judge the University of Alabama sorority girls. 397 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: God forbid. Good for them. They're happy. But the cultural difference, 398 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: if you are fortunate enough to have teenage girls or 399 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: teenage boys, between what the average life in Israel would 400 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: be like for an eighteen year old girl right now, 401 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 1: and what the average life for an eighteen year old 402 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: girl trying to get in a Southeastern Conference sorority or 403 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: a big ten sorority, a big twelve sororita, whatever it is, 404 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: is seismic. They expect their eighteen year olds in Israel 405 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: to put their lives on the line. Every single one 406 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: of them goes into training, knows how to use weapons, 407 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: understands that at any moment in time there might be 408 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: at terror attack and they might have to fire their 409 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: weapon and defend the people in their country. And here 410 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: we just have frivolity. And so how many of our 411 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: people out there, how many eighteen year olds in America 412 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: understand what eighteen year olds in Israel do not? Very many? Now, 413 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: some of you who are part of Birthright Israel and 414 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: you get over there and you see it all those things. 415 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: And I'm just using Israel as an example, but I 416 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: bet a lot of eighteen year olds in America are 417 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: sitting around depressed right now, like, oh, the Wi fi 418 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: is not working. 419 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 7: It's summer. 420 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: I'm so bored. And you're like, well, you know, you 421 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 1: could be in a bomb shelter, or you could be 422 00:25:53,800 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: on your stomach, crawling underneath people firing at you, being 423 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: concerned about your nail. Uh, what's it called the I've 424 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: never had my nails done, the nail salon not being 425 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: able to get you in today, Maybe it's not that 426 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: big of a deal in the in the larger context, 427 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: and there are many countries like this around the world, 428 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: And so if I could wave a magic wand I 429 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: think America would be transformed if everybody had to do 430 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: a Mormon style mission for two years in another country, 431 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: and I think our overall national discourse would actually be 432 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: much healthier. Now. I understand some of you out there 433 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: listening to me right now are like, hey, Clay, that's 434 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: what I did when I was eighteen. Yeah, good for you. 435 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: Good for you for having the discipline, having the courage, 436 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,239 Speaker 1: the bravery to do it. What percentage of eighteen year 437 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 1: olds serve their country in the United States right now, 438 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: zero point five percent, one percent. It's a tiny, tiny 439 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: percentage of young men and women. There are some volunteering 440 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: to do it, more power to you, But I'm just 441 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: saying it's not the same as when the entire culture 442 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: has to do it, and it does change things immensely. 443 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: And yes, I am right. There is an actual documentary 444 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 1: about the Alabama Stroorty rush. And I just the dichotomy 445 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: because look, I'm a guy who comes out of covering 446 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: college football, and I'm not claiming to be some tough guy. 447 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: I've never served in the military. I went off to 448 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: college when I was eighteen. But I do think I 449 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: have tried to have a larger global perspective of what 450 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: life is like. And that's one of the benefits of 451 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: traveling is sometimes things stick out to you which seem 452 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: normal in that country, that are staggering to us based 453 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 1: on the way that we typically live. In Israel, eighteen 454 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: year old girls are walking around with aks ready to 455 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: take out anybody who is a terrorist, and highly skilled 456 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: and highly trained in how to use incredibly deadly weapons. 457 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 1: And here in the United States, the average eighteen year 458 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: old girl is on TikTok trying to figure out how 459 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: to buy the newest swimsuit for summer. They're not the same. 460 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: And I think Whoopy Goldberg, it's hard to pick on 461 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: eighteen year olds because if you remember when you were eighteen, 462 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: you're ignorant about many different things. That's what you rely 463 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: on adults to help you recognize. But Woopy Goldberg is 464 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: the adult. She should be the person who has a 465 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: larger perspective to make her audience understand how their lives 466 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: fit in the context of the larger world. Every Black 467 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: person in the Uni States today is incredibly fortunate on 468 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: average to live in the United States today. Then in Africa, 469 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: this is not a doubt at all. The average standard 470 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: of living in any African country is a pen prick 471 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: of the average standing standard of living of the average 472 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: Black person in America today. Didn't they have? That girl 473 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: went viral recently, the eighteen year old girl, Will you 474 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: guys look that up? I don't think we played it 475 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: on the show, but she was so upset about racism 476 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: in America that she moved to Africa, and then after 477 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: only a few months in Africa, she was like, actually, 478 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: I want to go back to America. And I'm not 479 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: trying to pick on her, but she was uniquely susceptible 480 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: to the argument that she was oppressed and she was 481 00:29:55,080 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: a victim and she didn't have a high quality of life. 482 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: And as soon as she went to Africa, she was like, actually, sorry, 483 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: I want to go back to the United States. Actually 484 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: way better there. That's how virtually every person of every 485 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: race would be if they went to a different country. 486 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: And yesterday I was talking about the fact that I 487 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: was getting attacked because elon Omar, who was born in Somalia, 488 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: was ripping the United States, says one of the worst 489 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: countries in the world. And I said, isn't it amazing 490 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: how often the people who rip the United States, even 491 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: if they have multiple passports, even if they have citizenship 492 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: in multiple countries, they almost never go back. If you 493 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: truly thought that this country was awful, you should go 494 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: to a better country. If you think that you live 495 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: in a crappy city or state in the United States, 496 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: I would tell you to move to a new city 497 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: or state. You're not happy with where you are, you're 498 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: not happy with the country that you live in, and 499 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: you have the ability to go to a new country, 500 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: do it? You know, the ultimate lie that they have 501 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: been telling for so many years is that America is 502 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: a fundamentally awful racist country. If that were true, how 503 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: come during Joe Biden's era, ten million plus people risk 504 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: their entire lives to come to this country, the overwhelming 505 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: majority of whom are black and brown. Because it's a lie, 506 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: because this is the greatest country that has ever existed 507 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: in the history of the world, and most people are 508 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: taking it for granted if you are living here already, 509 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: because to a large extent, we don't understand the larger 510 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: world and how fortunate we all are. But if you 511 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: doubt it, look at how many people were willing to 512 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: risk everything to try to come here, overwhelmingly minorities. If 513 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: America were a supremely racist country, do you think tens 514 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: of millions of black and brown people would be doing 515 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: everything they can to illegally enter this country. Of course 516 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: not so. Some of the lies that we are being 517 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: told that are being propagated by people like will Pee 518 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: Goldberger actually insanely pernicious because they aren't true. And she's 519 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 1: old enough to know better and have some basis of 520 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: rational thought, but people listen to her and they believe it, 521 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: and it leads to unfortunately a non positive universe. Right now, 522 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: so we're going to dive into some of this. I'll 523 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: take some of your calls, your talkbacks, everything else associated 524 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: with it.

I love what you're 565 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,919 Speaker 7: talking about today. My father was an immigrant from Chile 566 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 7: from South America, came here in in the early seventies, 567 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 7: didn't speak a lick of English, came here legally on 568 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 7: a visa, lived here on a green card for twenty years. 569 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 7: Then he became a citizen, as the proudest American I know. 570 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 7: But when I after my junior year in college, I 571 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 7: wanted to see where my family came from. So I 572 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 7: went down there for a whole summer, down to Chile, 573 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 7: and it changed my life. And I'm not exaggerating. People 574 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 7: here have no clue how lucky they are. I have 575 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 7: a story where I went with one of my cousins. 576 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 7: I have or family there than here. I went to 577 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 7: the beach with one of my cousins and there is 578 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 7: about a ten year old kid, took his shoes off, 579 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,479 Speaker 7: went into the water, came back, his shoes were gone. 580 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 7: Someone stole them. The kid was crying like his parents 581 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 7: were killed. And I said to my cousin, I said, 582 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 7: what's the big deal. It's a pair of shoes, man, 583 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 7: you know, move on, And he told me you don't 584 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 7: understand his parents may have to work for eight months 585 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 7: before they could buy him another pair of shoes. So 586 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 7: I gave him a brand new pair of Nikes that 587 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 7: I had called my dad and said, hey, I need money, 588 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 7: I need to buy new shoes. I mean, so people 589 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 7: don't understand the difference. So I love what you're talking 590 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 7: about today. 591 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 1: Thank you. It's a great story, sad story, but representative 592 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,720 Speaker 1: of how our immense wealth and ability to buy goods. 593 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: Oftentimes we presume that other places have that same ability, 594 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: and they don't. Most places the world is not disposable, 595 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: meaning the goods. I mean, look at what's going on 596 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: in Cuba. I mean not very far right. Cuba used 597 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: to be one of the jewels of the American of 598 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: the Caribbean, and not far from America. Right, you could 599 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: hop on a boat, get from Key West, get from Tampa. 600 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: For those of you who Miami, who remember that, Ara, 601 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: you can go study it. They're still driving around in 602 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: cars in the nineteen fifties because they don't have the 603 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 1: ability to continue to build it. Richard in Maine, you 604 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: want to be I got thirty seconds for you here 605 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: what you got for us? 606 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 6: Yeah? 607 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 4: Hey, good afternoon. I love your show. You guys do 608 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 4: a great job. Where my wife and I we've been 609 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 4: saying for twenty to thirty years all about this national service, 610 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 4: and I don't want you to confuse it with military service, 611 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 4: which is fine. I'm the former Air Force officer, but 612 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 4: you don't necessarily have to carry a gun to learn 613 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 4: how to wake up at six in the morning, be 614 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 4: fit and do a job. So like nine months full 615 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 4: time of training and then the balance of the two 616 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 4: years you're doing the job, and then as for the 617 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 4: job market. 618 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: I love the idea, Richard. I think it's one of 619 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: the things the Mormons get right. I think it's why 620 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,760 Speaker 1: they have such perspective and gratitude. I think the country 621 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: would benefit from something like that. Next
