But his body had broken down 51 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 3: and the numbers reflected that. 52 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: Well. 53 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 3: Nike then paid him a bunch of money without people 54 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 3: knowing this to do the kneeling down, remember that whole thing. 55 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 3: And then he was dating and enough he was married 56 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 3: to this black panther, crazy Angela Davis. 57 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: Type woman, and. 58 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: So that's how he was able to live in But 59 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 3: what they were doing was building a personality for him 60 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 3: that was bigger than he could have achieved throwing footballs, 61 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 3: and Nike helped him do that was their pr team, 62 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: and they were paying his bills and paying him a 63 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 3: lot of money to throw it all to throw his 64 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: football away. 65 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: But his football was really over. 66 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 3: So when all that happened, Rush was pointing out because 67 00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 3: Rush had a passion for organizational sports, particularly football, and 68 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: the league and the business behind it and the personalities 69 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 3: behind it, and you love it or you don't. We 70 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 3: Rushed dead and the Steelers and everything goes with that. 71 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 3: And at the time that happened, because he was criticized 72 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 3: in Nike so much, listeners were emailing. 73 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 1: Him and saying, why are you wearing the Nike shirt? 74 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 3: You're wearing a Nike shirt, And he'd had enough of 75 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 3: being nagged about it, and so he explained one day, look, 76 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 3: I've got about thirty of these shirts. 77 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: May have been fifty, I don't remember. 78 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 3: It's the same exact shirt in the same exact size, 79 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: just different colors, and some of them are all the same. 80 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 3: And what I loved about that is I do the 81 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: same thing. My wife laughs because people will say, you know, 82 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 3: your husband wears the same shirt every day. He says, well, 83 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 3: it's a different shirt. It's just the same color, size, 84 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 3: and maker, and it's thirty two degrees cool. That's the brand, 85 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 3: and he buys them for nine dollars apiece. And he 86 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 3: loves the fact that he pays nine dollars for his 87 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 3: shirt and that he's comfortable in it and that's what 88 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 3: he wears and that's what he likes. Now, if I 89 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 3: go out, I'll change that. But Rush made the point, 90 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 3: he said, I don't want to change. I don't want 91 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: to go buy I don't want to wake up and 92 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 3: have to think about what I'm going to wear. 93 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: And I do the same thing. And I'm not saying 94 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm Rush Limbaugh, but. 95 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: It was just kind of funny because we both shared 96 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 3: this idea of what we wear doesn't matter to us 97 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 3: as long as it's comfortable. So my underwear, of my socks, 98 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 3: my shorts, my shirt I wear, I do actually wear 99 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 3: the same house slippers to work every day. Yeah, I'm 100 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 3: that person that you can't stand who's wearing house slippers 101 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: out in public. Except I'm not wearing it out in public. 102 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 3: I'm wearing it to the studio. But anyway, it got 103 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: me a thinking. But I don't carry twenty backup shirts. 104 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 3: Do you realize how much this fellow must sweat? You 105 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 3: have any idea how much this fellow sweats to bring 106 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 3: twenty backup shirts. 107 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: Now, I wonder if. 108 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 3: He has an assistant who does that, because I don't 109 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: know where he is in the rankings. Because if you're 110 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: number one, you got a team. If you're not in 111 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: the top fifty, you're probably hauling it yourself, and that 112 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: would be maybe a couple of loads. 113 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking. I'm just thinking. 114 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 3: That was unrelated to anything else on today's show. I 115 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 3: want to talk about things you can do to help 116 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 3: win this election. If you're a person who really just 117 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 3: likes to consume political information as entertainment but you don't 118 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 3: really ever want to do anything to help win the election, 119 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: you may not like this.

This was one review I 179 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 3: thought was pretty darn good of the interview yesterday. 180 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 5: Quote. 181 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 3: Television is mostly about visuals. Whoever set up this visual 182 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 3: is terrible at their job. Bad lighting, makeup, hair color choice, 183 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 3: Waltz's collar askew angle, making Kamala look small, water cup center, 184 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 3: shot off the rack, poorly fitting suit. This whole thing 185 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 3: just looks bad. And it did. When they pulled back 186 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 3: the wide shot. You had Dana Bash to the right 187 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: and you see her left side and she's facing the 188 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 3: two of them. You had Tim Waltz to the left 189 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 3: and he's like this hulking figure. He's sitting up taller, 190 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 3: kind of lording over, and you have Kamala in the 191 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 3: middle and that they're leaning. 192 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: On a table. Well, she's leaning on the table. 193 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 3: The other two are pulled back a little bit and 194 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: she's leaning on a table. She looks like For those 195 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 3: of you who work in an office setting and you're 196 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 3: an executive, you know how on Friday at four o'clock, 197 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: you're getting ready to leave and you get a message, Hey, guys, 198 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: I need everybody in the conference room because Susie has 199 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 3: accused Billy of sexual harassment and the story's going to hit. 200 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: Or your biggest client just called and said, y'all are fired. 201 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: I'm going to the competitor, or whatever else. If an 202 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: outsider were to walk in and you were sitting in 203 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 3: the conference room because you were closest to the conference room, 204 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 3: you got there first. Your posture when the outsider walked 205 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 3: in is how comorless posture looked. Now you might be saying, Michael, 206 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 3: what do we care about posture? I wan't talking about 207 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 3: the issues. I'm gonna stick to the issues guy, right, 208 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 3: And there aren't enough stick to the issues voters for 209 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 3: us to win. Some people are going to see that 210 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 3: interview and base their vote based on a gut judgment 211 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 3: that they may not even realize why. 212 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: They made it. 213 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 3: It may be because she's slumped over, maybe because she 214 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: doesn't look like she's in command of the interview because 215 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 3: she's not. 216 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 7: There are a. 217 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 3: Number of reasons why that would happen, but it is 218 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 3: very clear, and we'll get to that. I don't know 219 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 3: if I'll get to the audio today. I may, but 220 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 3: I got a lot of things to get to. There 221 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: are a number of reasons why that was a bust 222 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: for her, but it was a bust, and we'll explore 223 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: some of that through the course of the day today. Now, 224 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 3: we received a call from a listener a while back, 225 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 3: and I'm not beating up on this guy's name is John. 226 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: It's important to remember that I often use an anecdote 227 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 3: as a way to make a point and tell a story, 228 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 3: and I don't mean to imbue too much judgment into 229 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 3: that experience. It's really just a launching pad to a 230 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 3: bigger discussion. I made this statement this morning that a 231 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 3: number of people commented on, where did I read that from? 232 00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: And I didn't. 233 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 3: It was my statement, and I said that the road 234 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: to serfdom is paved voluntarily by the naive. Now, the 235 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: road to Serfdom is the name of the book by 236 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 3: Friedrich Hayek that is very, very influential in classical liberal 237 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: which today would be called conservative thought. And it is 238 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 3: a book that has influenced me to a great deal, 239 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 3: The Road to Serfdom. The author is hyak H A 240 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: y e K and you can find it anywhere. It's 241 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 3: the book came out in the early forties. But the 242 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 3: idea is we've got to win this election. We've got 243 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 3: to win not just the presidential we got to win 244 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: elections all the way up and down. We have to 245 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 3: talk to people who mean well, but they are naive. 246 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 3: They don't want to believe that there are people in 247 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 3: this country in office, that being the Democrats who are 248 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 3: wanting the evil things that are happening to happen. And 249 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 3: I want to use this call as a launching point 250 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 3: in the next segment, So fire at ramon John here 251 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 3: on the Michael Berry Show. 252 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: Go ahead, sir, Hey, thank you. 253 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 4: Ben. 254 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 7: I've been listening to your show for a couple of 255 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 7: weeks now, and I'm not a big political guy whatsoever. 256 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 7: I'm a blue collar, hard worker, want my kids have 257 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 7: better than I have. And I'm kind of on the cusp. 258 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 7: I'm not Democrat, I'm not Republican, but I listen and 259 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 7: both parties I just hear a complaining about that party 260 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 7: complaining about the other party, and I just don't, like 261 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 7: you were saying a minute ago, I don't know enough 262 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 7: about the background history of these people, what they've done 263 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 7: except on social media. 264 00:16:58,800 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: And I'm just kind of. 265 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 7: At a crossroad of you know, all my philosophy was 266 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 7: just whoever's president, just do a good job, because we're 267 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 7: one nation under God. So I'm just we're trying to 268 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 7: write my head or why do we even have Republicans 269 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 7: and Democrats if we all live on this United States? 270 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 7: Why are we one nation? Just do a good job 271 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 7: where everybody's happy. That's where kind I'm at. I just 272 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 7: don't know which. 273 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: Way to go. 274 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: That's completely understandable, John, it is absolutely completely understandable. I 275 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 3: think you're a guy with a big heart who loves 276 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: this country and doesn't understand why there would be a disagreement. 277 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 3: Doesn't understand why we even have to argue over these things. 278 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: Unfortunately we do. You probably can't understand why grown men 279 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 3: would want to walk into elementary schools in bikinis and 280 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 3: a wig and want to show there willie to a 281 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 3: girl or to a boy. You probably can't understand why 282 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 3: some people believe that grown men should be able to 283 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 3: compete against women in women's sports and knock them out, 284 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 3: knock their teeth out. You probably can't understand why if 285 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: you go to the border the entire world is coming 286 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 3: in illegally, knowing some of them are terrorists and some 287 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 3: of them are pedophiles, and some of them being trafficked. 288 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 3: The Democrats are for all those things I just talked about, 289 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 3: and the Republicans are against them. 290 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: I wish we all agreed, but we don't, sir. There 291 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: is a very clear distinction. 292 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 6: We here at the Michael Berry Shield believe that a 293 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 6: grown ass man or a lesbian woman should be able 294 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 6: to pop a cold beer on the drive home on Friday. 295 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: Are pretty good, dragon big. 296 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 3: Are to be sure, there are evil people who wish 297 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 3: you harm. 298 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: Whether that's the guy who will. 299 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 3: Carjack you, break into your house and rape your wife, 300 00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: traffic your child. There are those people. That is the 301 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 3: person who says, I just want to love naturally. I 302 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 3: don't want to be picked on for being a transsexual. 303 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: I just want to love who I want to love 304 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: and not be judged. 305 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 3: Okay, fine, do it, but you're not going into the 306 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 3: classroom to teach the kids about it.

You cry bullies, and that's 310 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 3: what the left has become. People that walk up, punch 311 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: you in the face and then talk about what a victim. 312 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: They are and they're scared of you. They're not scared 313 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 1: of you. 314 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 3: They use victimhood while at the same time brutalizing you. 315 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 3: And you've got to confront that the problem is too 316 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 3: many people have been taught and this will only get 317 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: worse because we're not teaching our children what we The 318 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 3: good news is the over forty and especially over fifty 319 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: and sixty crowd knows better because all this is new. 320 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 1: But this won't be new forever. This will be the 321 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: new normal and will be the weirdos. 322 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 3: You realize that, right Anyway, So we had a call 323 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 3: from a woman that I thought was on point, kind 324 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 3: of in response to that last call, and I'm gonna 325 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 3: let that go.

I wanted to respond to 328 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 5: the guy who said we're all Americans we all want 329 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 5: what's best for America. 330 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 7: Just do that. 331 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 5: It's simple. And I gotta say, sadly, that's not true. 332 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 5: We're not all Americans, not in any meaningful sense of 333 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 5: the word. And with twenty million illegal aliens that they 334 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 5: want to make citizens, it's not going to be true 335 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 5: in any sense of the word. We who believe in America, 336 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 5: American exceptionalism, the founding principles of our country. We believe 337 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,239 Speaker 5: in America and we want what's best for her. But 338 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 5: not everybody's like that. There are some who despise America, 339 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 5: and they've taken over the Democratic Party. We outnumbered them lately. 340 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 5: So why do they always win? Because they occupy the 341 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 5: high ground, not the moral high crown, but the logistical 342 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 5: high ground. They own the media, and they owned a treasury. 343 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 5: They work for all these NGOs and they get paid 344 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 5: with taxpayer dollars. So that's why they keep winning. Now 345 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 5: they can't come out and say we hate America. They 346 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 5: have to say things like Kamala Harris speech last night. 347 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 5: To listen to that, he would think she's one of us. 348 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 5: But they lie because they know they have to. So 349 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 5: I sent you an email about the law diffusion of innovation, 350 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 5: and Trump knows that to reach the segment of the 351 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 5: population he needs to win, he can't talk about policies 352 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 5: or ideas because they are not into that, and it's 353 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 5: just that they're not affected by that. You will lose 354 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 5: them if you talk because they're above ideas, they are above policies. 355 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 5: They're in the people. So he's got to reach them 356 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 5: on their level, and he's trying to do it. I 357 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 5: was thinking about what I can do. People say, talk 358 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,959 Speaker 5: to your liberal friends, talk to your Democrat friends. Well, 359 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 5: I don't have any. I don't hang around with people 360 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 5: like that because I know. I know what the deep 361 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 5: state is like. And Trump didn't know when he got 362 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 5: started in this, but he says, I didn't used to 363 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 5: believe in the deep state. I do now. So he 364 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 5: knows what the deep state is. He knows it has 365 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 5: to be defeated, not just beat defeated. And here's the thing. 366 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 5: The deep state knows that he knows, and that's why 367 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 5: they will go to any extreme, anything possible, by all 368 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 5: possible means to defeat him. So I'm thinking, what can 369 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 5: I do because I don't have any liberal friends to 370 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 5: convince I'm a University of Georgia graduate, and I get 371 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 5: all these emails about the Bulldog Club locally is going 372 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 5: to meet. We're gonna have these tailgate things for football Saturday, 373 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 5: and I never go to and I thought, well, I'm 374 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 5: gonna go now. I'm gonna go and wear my Wolldogs 375 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 5: attire and my Trump hat. I wore my Trump hat 376 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 5: through BUCkies a couple of Saturdays ago, and I got 377 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 5: these vibes the people thumbs up. So I said, I'm 378 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 5: gonna do that. I'm gonna go to Buckets just for 379 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 5: the point of wearing my Trump hat. And I'm gonna 380 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 5: respond to everybody who responds to me positively or negatively. 381 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 5: And this is one thing I will I've saved to, 382 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 5: especially the women who are anti Trump. If your child 383 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 5: is drowning and there is one person swimming to save 384 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 5: their lives, the only person who can do you really 385 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 5: care what their personality hook or even their character is. 386 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 5: Our country is dying and if we want to save it, 387 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 5: we have to bend together. Because I agree with you, 388 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 5: this is the last Hurrah. 389 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 3: Kathy is the great rustling Ball would say, Bravo, bravo. 390 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 3: That was pure brilliance. That was a textbook master class 391 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 3: in how you present an argument as a caller on 392 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 3: a show, so many aspects, formatics, and substance that are 393 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 3: just perfect. You shared your own personal expense experiences, but 394 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 3: also laying out the fundamentals of the thesis you were advancing, 395 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 3: without taking a breath, without pausing, without in any way 396 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 3: diverging or straying from your core point, because she doesn't 397 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 3: know if I'm going to cut. 398 00:24:58,760 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: Her off in the middle. 399 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 3: A very well thought, structured and executed. 400 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 1: Call. 401 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 3: Just fantastic. I cannot just fantastic, absolutely fantastic. I you know, 402 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 3: I say all the time, I've set it for years. 403 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 3: For those of you who've been around, this isn't a 404 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 3: show that's going to talk politics twenty four to seven. 405 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 3: That's other shows. You can do it, so you'll know 406 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: when I do. When it feels like, man, that's all 407 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 3: he's talking about, that's when you'll know. And that time 408 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: is now, and that time is now. There had to 409 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 3: be a moment in the Great French Nation when they 410 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 3: realize the Germans had invaded and their nation was falling. 411 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 3: There had to be a moment. It had to hurt. 412 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 3: And I see that happening, and I've never said that before, 413 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 3: never said that before, And we have got to get 414 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 3: people around us to wake. 415 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 6: Up celebrating the grown ass working man and lesbian woman. 416 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: Or Friday drive home on the Michael Barry Show. 417 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 8: Long redimal beans and you cross the table, eating them 418 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 8: beans and making love and long time the boat ho 419 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 8: and coing and cutting too, and then the day is over, 420 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 8: rides view and cut the fool. 421 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: And I'm fine. You're having thoughts. I'm going to leave 422 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 1: that to buycom. 423 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 3: Others aren't bothering to think, and you fill alone on 424 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 3: an island and you want to engage more. Maybe you're 425 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 3: listening to talk radio, maybe you've signed up for a newsletter, 426 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 3: maybe you found a website or maybe a YouTube page, 427 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 3: and you find yourself and you never expected this, an 428 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 3: eighteen wheeler truck driver, eighteen wheel truck driver, and you 429 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 3: find yourself thinking about things you never thought about before, 430 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: and you find that you're craving more information. There are 431 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 3: a lot of people that do what I do in 432 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 3: one form or another, written, video, audio, radio, TV, dot TV, radio, 433 00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: YouTube websites, newsletters, even Twitter and Facebook, though mostly that's 434 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 3: not long form. But if you really want to dig 435 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: deep and encourage your young people, especially when you get 436 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 3: into your teenage years, your mind is fertile. Expose those children. 437 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 3: Some of it will some of the time it'll take. 438 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 3: Expose them to the writings of the most influential thinkers 439 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 3: of Western civilization, Friedrich Hayek The Road to Serfdom. If 440 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 3: you're not writing this down, don't email me. I can't 441 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 3: respond to a thousand emails a day with the name 442 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 3: of books. Just go back to the podcast The Road 443 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 3: to Serfdom Thomas soul s ow e Ll Basic Economics, 444 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 3: iron Rand A Y N R A n D. 445 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: She wrote several I like Atlas Shrugged. 446 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 3: If you can make it through at Less Shrugged, and 447 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 3: it's a slog, it's not for everybody. Then read The 448 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 3: fountain Head, which I never finished until later in life. 449 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 3: I just reread it again last year and I forgot 450 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 3: how dead gum good it is. These are three to 451 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 3: get you started, and they're not going to be, you know, 452 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 3: the neighborhood book club book of the month, that's for sure, 453 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 3: unless you're in charge of the neighborhood book club. But 454 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: they're going to get you thinking about things outside the 455 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 3: context of the time in which we live and That's 456 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 3: when you begin to understand that great thoughts are eternal 457 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 3: and they're universal. The struggle between the individual and his 458 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 3: ability to make decisions and choices for himself versus the 459 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 3: collective that strouble is as old as humanity, and you 460 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 3: will start to see that. You will realize that before 461 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 3: there was CNN and MSNBC, there were still influential media 462 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 3: forms skewing elections to their favorite and there were people 463 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 3: who didn't realize it was happening. And there were people 464 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,239 Speaker 3: who didn't realize that there was an agenda behind it, 465 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 3: whether they personally financially gained or it was their own 466 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 3: political persuasion that they wanted to carry out from behind 467 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 3: the scenes. With you, they were the one behind the curtain, 468 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 3: and you will begin to see that there's nothing new 469 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 3: in the world. What we are confronting right now through 470 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 3: the Trump presidential campaign is simply put the battle between 471 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 3: good and evil, the battle between good and evil. It's 472 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 3: just that simple. I've got audio files, but I don't 473 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 3: want I want to don't want to go back and 474 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 3: forth with audio right now. We'll do this next week. 475 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 3: If I get too deep into the audio files and 476 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 3: I get distracted, from my points. You've probably noticed that 477 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 3: we've been using a lot more audio on the show 478 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 3: of Late than we normally do, and the reasoning for 479 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 3: that is I am in election mode. I am focused 480 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 3: on the election. We build our audience as a variety show, 481 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 3: a show that talks about adoption and Mother's Day and 482 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 3: Father's Day and veterans and life and death and being 483 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 3: a good husband and being a good small business owner 484 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: and these sorts of things. But when we get at 485 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 3: a time where I think it's time to be serious 486 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 3: or I'll stop and turn this car around, then you'll 487 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 3: know it. And that's where we are right now. And 488 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 3: that's where a lot of things that I would enjoy 489 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 3: talking about out get pushed to the end of the 490 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 3: show or deleted and put on a bonus podcast or 491 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 3: some other outlet for me to share what's silly or funny. 492 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 3: This is the timing I say this till I'm blowing 493 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 3: the face. And I'm sure this is true for many people. 494 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 3: And if it's true of you, then maybe this is 495 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 3: the wake up call. There are people who live politics 496 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 3: all day, every day. They do it year round, and 497 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 3: it's year round, all day long. It never takes a break, 498 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 3: and what ends up happening is because they are so 499 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 3: focused on politics all day, every day, they're watching it 500 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 3: on TV, radio, other people around them burn out on it, 501 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 3: so they become chicken little screaming the sky is falling. 502 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: But it's worse than that. Often they themselves. 503 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 3: They lose the credibility to be able to persuade other 504 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 3: people to help win this election because nobody wants to 505 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 3: hear from them. 506 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: They're tired of hearing from them. 507 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: You know, if a person repeats themselves too often to 508 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 3: you about something they're trying to sell you life insurance, 509 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 3: they're trying to tell you to leave your wife, or 510 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 3: you know, whatever it is, you grow tired of that. 511 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: And you build a skin around it. 512 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 3: You may not avoid them altogether, although many times you will, 513 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 3: but it goes in one ear and out the other. 514 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 3: You think about what you're going to do tomorrow while 515 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 3: they're going into that speech again. And that is very natural, 516 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 3: but it's also it makes you in the effective. Trump 517 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 3: can't win this election. We have to win it for him. 518 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 3: He can do his part. So because people talk and 519 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 3: live politics all day every day, and by the way, 520 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 3: you're encouraged to do it Fox News. They got nothing 521 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 3: else going on. Every single day, it's the outrage or 522 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 3: the you know, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Chuck Schimmer, AOC. 523 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 3: They've got their cast of characters, so they've got to 524 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 3: create something. You know, are people mad at Nancy Pelosi? 525 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 3: And there it is on the carun You can't focus 526 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 3: on that year. 527 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: Und all that. 528 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 3: By way of saying, take a break this weekend, take 529 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 3: a deep breath, because starting next week you need to 530 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 3: be able to articulate clearly and concisely the consequences of 531 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 3: this election. Do not try to make Donald Trump into 532 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 3: of God, even though you may worship him. Explain the 533 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 3: consequences to your audience. 534 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: Hey, I got it. Trump's a flawed individual. We all are. 535 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: But here are the consequences if she wins.
