1
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: It's that time time time, time, luck and load.

2
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: The Michael Varry Show is on the air.

3
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 3: It's Charlie from BlackBerry's mart I can feel a good

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 3: when coming on.

5
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 4: It's the Michael Berry Show.

6
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: Oh yes. It is the concept of the martyr. It

7
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: may rt love mart It comes from the Greek martis.

8
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 2: It means testimony or witness. The concept of the martyr

9
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: or martyrdom. The concept of becoming a martyr or being

10
00:00:54,560 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: a martyr is tinged in the idea that in a

11
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: death or a reason related to principle, usually faith, could

12
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 2: be politics, that that person's life is then elevated above

13
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: simply as the rest of us die of heart attacks

14
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 2: and car accidents and cancers and all the ways the

15
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: maladies that befall us that end our days, the idea

16
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: is to take that body and lift it up, to

17
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 2: elevate it, to celebrate it, to honor it, to mourn it.

18
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 2: And in this concept is very powerful. We haven't really

19
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: seen it in modern Western civilization the way we have

20
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 2: for Muslims, and Muslims who've been fighting this intifada of

21
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: their of their great interest for quite some time, have

22
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: to find ways to motivate young mostly men, to engage

23
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 2: in what is basically an act of suicide and to

24
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: be willing to give their lives in this war in

25
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: which they see themselves in the process. They say to

26
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: these young recruits, you will be martyred, and you know

27
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: what they're said to receive in heaven and all of

28
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 2: this and this concept goes back throughout human history. It

29
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 2: is across the globe. You know, the kamikaze. You know,

30
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: I think Americans, those American airmen and cormen and seamen

31
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: who fought in World War Two came back with a

32
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 2: grudging respect, almost admiration for those deadly Kamakazis. I'm fascinated

33
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: by the ritual that occurred before the kamakazi mention, a

34
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: mention mission which these rituals were rooted in something called bushido,

35
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: which was the code of the samurai, very ancient Japanese

36
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:28,839
Speaker 2: tradition and the Shinto beliefs and wartime nationalism. You're doing

37
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 2: this for your country, so you were doing it for God,

38
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: You're doing it for your race. You're doing it for

39
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: your country, and in the process you will become you

40
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: will transition upon death into what's known as a kami

41
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: aam I or kami you want in English, that's the kamma,

42
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: kami kazi. You transition from manhood, from humanity into being

43
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: a god. What happened to Charlie Kirk is the most

44
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 2: awful thing imaginable, and his wife and children will suffer

45
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: his loss, at least for now. There are a lot

46
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 2: of people around. At least for now the nation is

47
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 2: I heard today sixty two thousand new applications for TPUSA chapters.

48
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: Can you imagine sixty two thousand. Charlie Kirk did not

49
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: die in vain, He did not die in silence. He

50
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: was not forgotten. He will be missed, But more importantly

51
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 2: than being missed is that he will be honored. But

52
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 2: he won't be honored with tears and wailing. I mean,

53
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 2: there will be plenty of that this weekend. There is

54
00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: a mission associated with his martyrdom, and for a man

55
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: who lived his life for that mission, I can think

56
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: of no greater tribute. It's overwhelming when I think about it.

57
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: This man was an evangelist. In the light of Billy Graham.

58
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 2: Political activism is rooted in our Christian activism. He was

59
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: a great evangelist and he's been martyred, and great things

60
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: are happening in our country. This is an awakening, Michael,

61
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: I lost the plot somewhere.

62
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 5: You did.

63
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: Started hearing from parents about a There's a school in

64
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: Houston called Stratford High School. It's not in the Houston

65
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 2: Independent School District. It's in the Spring Branch Independent School District,

66
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 2: which is just west of downtown. And this is as

67
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: reliably republican part of town as you can count on.

68
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 2: And they applied for a TP Turning Point USA chapter.

69
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 2: The kids applied for it, They followed the rules. They

70
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 2: went to the school and said, you know, we know

71
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: we have to have a sponsor to have a school organization,

72
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 2: and we'd like to applied for a chapter. We've been

73
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 2: granted TPUSA approval. And the school asked if there were

74
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 2: any teachers willing to be their sponsors. And so there was,

75
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: as I understand it, a black Nigerian soccer coach who

76
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: said he would do it, and a white woman who

77
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 2: I think I may have this wrong. There's a lot

78
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 2: of different versions around who I think is also maybe

79
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: a soccer coach and a teacher. Either way, there were

80
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 2: two teachers who agreed to serve as sponsors. Which they're

81
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 2: required to. The group started an Instagram page and they

82
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: announced the other students, we're going to we're about to

83
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: get our approval to be a chapter on there. We're

84
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 2: going to have our first meeting today, which would be today.

85
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 2: This all happened on Monday or Tuesday this week. And

86
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 2: then there is this group of evil, awful white liberal

87
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: witches and they call themselves something like, you know, tormenting

88
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: children in public schools. That they've got some name, but

89
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 2: they're very involved locally in digging into the schools and

90
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: trying to make the schools very liberal, and truth be told,

91
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 2: they will ruin some young people's lives. There will be

92
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 2: some young men who are unsure of their sexuality, unsure

93
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: of their sexual role. They don't feel as manly, they

94
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 2: don't want to play in the dirt, they don't want

95
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: to play football, so they start questioning themselves. And these

96
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: groups like this will talk that kid, will put so

97
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: many drugs into that kid, and talk that kid into

98
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: cutting his wiener off, and then when he's thirty years old,

99
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: he'll blow his brains out. And it happens, and it

100
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 2: happens too often, and they will claim they're doing it

101
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 2: because they love the child, and now the child loves themselves.

102
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 2: And these confused young people just trying to fit in.

103
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: You'd be shocked how many people that are listening to

104
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 2: us right now who are very well balanced adults, parents,

105
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 2: business owners, cops, firefighters, lawyers, doctors, nurses, preachers, teachers, and

106
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 2: if you're honest, you didn't fit in either. You were

107
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 2: an outcast. You couldn't find your tribe, you couldn't find

108
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 2: your group. And it wasn't until you went off to college,

109
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 2: or it wasn't n til you went off to the Marines,

110
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 2: or it wasn't until you went to welding school. You

111
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 2: didn't fit in. Girls, you didn't fit in. That happens,

112
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 2: but not fitting in while it can torment you. The

113
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: last thing you need is somebody is your bad wolf

114
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: over your shoulder, pulling at your ear and telling you

115
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: to do all these self destructive things and put all

116
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 2: these hormones in your body that are the opposite sex

117
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 2: that you were born from. This is evil. This is

118
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 2: evil anyway that woman did that, and we've announced it,

119
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 2: and I think some things are happening. They're trying to

120
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: get in the middle of these kids and their their

121
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 2: chapter at the school, which is in and of itself evil.

122
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: What I say with that is, take care of your communities, folks,

123
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: take care of your schools, get involved, get engaged, fight back.

124
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: White liberals will destroy everything if you let them. Kathy

125
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 2: Ramon described you as a sassy little lady. Don't disappoint.

126

141
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: having fun. What's on your minds we have?

142
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 4: Well? Uh no, we had gotten into an argument. And

143
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 4: I've known this man since I was twelve years old,

144
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 4: and I had to get pregnant just so I could

145
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 4: marry because my duddy did not watch you. And we

146
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 4: were mad for forty seven years and nine months before

147
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 4: he passed, Oh my god, before he passed, a long

148
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 4: time before he passed, he pushed that last button on me.

149
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 4: And I just told him, if you think a count

150
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 4: what you're inn account at something, I said, I've been.

151
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: I've been making my own I make my own bread,

152
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 4: everything I grew to my groceries. I raised six children.

153
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 4: He got a new red truck and I said, oh,

154
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 4: hell no, I'm shutting the baby machine down and opening

155
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 4: a plate. Then, oh my gosh, that said. I was

156
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 4: angry with him, and I said, if you take butcher,

157
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 4: I mean I many, because it's gonna be mince meat,

158
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 4: and you're gonna be under every tree and leave on

159
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 4: this property. And I still live here and he doesn't

160
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 4: go on to be with a boy.

161
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 2: What would he do to push your last button?

162
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 4: You know, I don't even remember that part.

163
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: I mean, looking back, it was probably silly, you know,

164
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 2: but at the time it seemed like so important.

165
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 4: Well, he was a truck driver, he was a long hauler,

166
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 4: and I only got to see, you know, maybe once

167
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 4: twelve week or two weeks, and he left me at

168
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 4: home with all these kids and his gardening and.

169
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 6: Hens.

170
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,599
Speaker 4: And we had we bought calf every year, and we

171
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 4: butcher it after a you know, after a year, we'd

172
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: butcher it and make him, you know, go up and

173
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 4: get big and fat. Yeah, and uh, he would saint

174
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 4: at the side of blood. And he had a hard

175
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 4: time because I'd make him shoot him in the in

176
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 4: the head and he had to hang it up in

177
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: the in the hockles so I could butcher because I'm

178
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 4: just five to two and he was about six four.

179
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 4: So the go God, And I'm here trying to keep

180
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 4: home in heart together while he's out on the road

181
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 4: hauling for the man who had the money.

182
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kathy, that poor man when he come home from

183
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 2: being out on the on the long haul, he probably

184
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 2: didn't mind getting back on the road because he'd have

185
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 2: piece of white when he come home. You got all

186
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: these burdens. You were stewing for a fight.

187
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 4: Probably, But I'll tell you what making up with Hiven.

188
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, how many kids did y'all have? Six?

189
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 5: Oh?

190
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 6: Wow?

191
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 4: In ten years?

192
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 2: God bless you. Kathy, God bless you. I love this.

193
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 2: I love to know there are people like you out there.

194
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 2: You give me so much hope. How old are you?

195
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 4: I am seventy three? A fourth generation takes.

196
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 6: Oh wow.

197
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: Alright, God bless you. I'm so glad you called call

198
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,599
Speaker 2: us again. Please, okay, all right, sweetheart, I have a

199
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 2: wonderful day. You're the call of the week. I bet

200
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 2: you we got ten thousand sweet little ladies of seventy

201
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 2: or more that would make a pound case that you

202
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: could eat cold and enjoy. Michael verrychow.

203
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 7: Good.

204
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 2: They have begun to the governor of Virginia, and I'm

205
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 2: hoping what has happened this past week with spur folks

206
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 2: who otherwise wouldn't it out to vote, to go out

207
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 2: and vote, and to vote for the most qualified, best

208
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 2: candidate who just happens to be a black woman, which

209
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 2: would set all sorts of records precedents in Virginia. That's

210
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 2: not a reason to vote for her. It's just a

211
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 2: cool little cherry on top. Because when we get scared

212
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 2: or we get angry, our folks who normally don't vote

213
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 2: show up and vote. That happened in November. Kamala scared people.

214
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 2: We have to do that now. But isn't it amazing?

215
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 2: Isn't it amazing that if Trump hadn't won, this tribute

216
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 2: to Charlie Kirk would not be happening. The White House

217
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: posted this video as a tribute to Charlie Hirk, and

218
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 2: it is beautiful.

219
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 3: Good evening.

220
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: My name is Erica Kirk.

221
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk is my husband.

222
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 7: Charlie always said that when he was gone.

223
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 8: He wanted to be remembered for his courage and for

224
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 8: his faith.

225
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 7: Now and for all eternity, he will stand at his

226
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 7: Savior's side wearing the glorious crown.

227
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: But murder. Charlie loved, loved life.

228
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 8: He loved his life, he loved America. But most of all,

229
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 8: Charlie loved his.

230
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 7: Children, and he loved me with.

231
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: All of his heart. And I knew that every day.

232
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 2: I knew that the evildoers responsible for my husband's.

233
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 7: Assassination, I have no idea what they have done. They

234
00:15:54,680 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 7: killed Charlie because he preached a message of patriotism and

235
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 7: of God's merciful love.

236
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 3: They should all know this.

237
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 7: If you thought that my husband's mission was powerful before,

238
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 7: you have no idea. You have no idea what you

239
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 7: just have unleashed across this entire country, in this world.

240
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 7: You have no idea. You have no idea the fire

241
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 7: that you have ignited within.

242
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 2: This wife, your family.

243
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 7: The cries of this widow will echo around the world

244
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 7: like a battle cry.

245
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 9: People across the country are gathering, holding memorial services and

246
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 9: vigils to honor Charlie Kirk's memory and his message.

247
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 8: To everyone listening tonight across America.

248
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 3: The movement my husband.

249
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 5: Built will not die.

250
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 4: It won't.

251
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 2: I refuse to let that happen. They will not die.

252
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 7: It will become stronger, older, louder, and greater than ever.

253
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 8: I promise I will never let your legacy I will.

254
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 2: I promise.

255
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 8: I'll make turning point us say the biggest thing that

256
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 8: this nation has ever seen.

257
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 7: You who asks to meet arms of our Lord as

258
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 7: he blankets you with the words, I know your heart

259
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 7: always strives to hear. Well done, my good and.

260
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 3: Fifth Charley, you put all this together.

261
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 9: Let's I am this humbled by a God's That's all

262
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 9: I can say. It's done. I want you to remember

263
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 9: that we did not earn this. This, this is this

264
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 9: is God's mercy on our country.

265
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 2: I'm sure you know this story already, and you know,

266
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: one of the challenges is always talking about something that

267
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,199
Speaker 2: a lot of people already know, So forgive me if

268
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 2: you already know the story. But it's one of the

269
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 2: most beautiful stories of the week. Glenn Beck had been

270
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 2: given by Catherine el Rushbo's golden EIB microphone when rush passed.

271
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, how humbling did that have to be. Glenn

272
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 2: is a collector of, you know, copies of rare documents

273
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 2: and things. He loves this sort of stuff, so you

274
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 2: can imagine how precious that was to him. So he's

275
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 2: sitting in on Charlie Kirk's show and he brings something

276
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 2: and puts it in front of Charlie Kirk's microphone. He

277
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 2: gifted that microphone to Charlie and in this seat this week,

278
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 2: and I am just I'm just blown away. What a

279
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: powerful gesture here it was. But there was something special

280
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 2: about Charlie Kirk. I want to share a story.

281
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: That I've never shared before, and I so regret that

282
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: we ran out of time. It's a story that I

283
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: had hoped to tell Charlie myself in the next couple

284
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: of months when I first met Charlie. This is the

285
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: kind of guy he was. He was so gracious. I

286
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 1: first met him, he was young, and I said, so,

287
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: what do you want to do? What is it you want?

288
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: What do you want to do? So gracious? He said,

289
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: I want to be you. I'm I want to do

290
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 1: what you do. Let me translate, I want to be

291
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 1: Rush Limbaugh.

292
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 2: He didn't want to be me. He wanted to be

293
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: Russia Limba.

294
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,360
Speaker 1: He wanted to be one of the as Rush said,

295
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: radio's greatest of all time. And I remember thinking, well, kid,

296
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: maybe someday, because I think you have it. I brought

297
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: something with me today that I thought was appropriate while

298
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: I did the show that I would sit in front

299
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: of Charlie's microphone.

300
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 5: It was given to me after the death of Rush

301
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 5: Limbaugh by his wife.

302
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: It is Russia's golden microphone.

303
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 2: I think it's appropriate.

304
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: That it sits in front of Charlie's microphone.

305
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 2: What I would have.

306
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 5: Said to Charlie was, you were thinking too small.

307
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,959
Speaker 2: I want to be Rush Limbaugh. Someday. I'm a broadcaster.

308
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 1: Rush was a broadcaster, but Charlie was a broadcaster and

309
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: a narrow caster. Charlie was a pastor and a priest,

310
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: and listening to the way. He could argue and think differently.

311
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: He was a rabbi as well, and one of the best.

312
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: He was a political organizer. He was a political think

313
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: take himself. He was a compassionate friend. He surpassed Rush Limbaugh.

314
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: My mild they sit we had with the Michael Berry.

315
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 2: Nobody's going to spit on our police offices. Nobody's to

316
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 2: just fit or our military. Yeah, you're on the Michael

317
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 2: Berry Show. Thanks for holding you're up, Bud, What you got.

318
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 6: Okay? Well, one, I'm not a twenty fifth time caller.

319
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 6: I'm a first time caller. You've covered so much ground today,

320
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 6: I'd like to focus on what it means to be American.

321
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 6: You have two boys, correct.

322
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: I do, eighteen and nineteen, and you go.

323
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 6: Out of your way to tell them that change is good,

324
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 6: have open discussions, and college has been in America, and

325
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 6: America has been all about change, discovering lightning, the Revolutionary War,

326
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 6: everything has been changed. Change. Change is good is the

327
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 6: American ethos and your Paris on the universities. Why liberals

328
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 6: win is because it's like air. You have a balloon,

329
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 6: you pump a little bit of air in it, and

330
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 6: it expands and brings you get a bigger balloon or pops.

331
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 6: So when liberals who are progressive, progressive is an impression

332
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 6: of change. Don't do things the way you do. You

333
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 6: don't want your kids to grow up to be you.

334
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: You want to.

335
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 6: Teach your kids to experience many things and make their

336
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 6: own decisions. But you're a product of your environment. College

337
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 6: is open discussion. That's how the Vietnam More protests came up.

338
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 6: You could gather in groups and force change, and change

339
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 6: is good in the American infos. Liberals gather a balloon,

340
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 6: they grow it a little bit, they get a bigger balloon,

341
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 6: they grow it a little bit. So there's a creep,

342
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 6: just like lifestyle creep. If you have more money, you're

343
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 6: going to run into lifestyle creep. So that is how

344
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 6: liberal expands and the conservatives are the moderation of change,

345
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 6: saying is this good? So was the Boston Tea Party

346
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 6: good or not? It started the Revolutionary War. Nobody ever

347
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,719
Speaker 6: says what England was using the tax foot, whether it

348
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 6: was good or bad. They just say taxation without representation,

349
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 6: and we fought and many people died. But nobody ever

350
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 6: says what England uses that tax for. Maybe the t

351
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 6: cast was good, but change. We wanted to change, and

352
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 6: change is always upsetting no matter what you do. Internet

353
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 6: is a good example. No matter what you do in

354
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 6: an organization or a country or society, change is going

355
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 6: to be disrupted. Change management is a skill.

356
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 2: Anyhow.

357
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 6: The whole point is, it's back to the Bill causby record.

358
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 6: Why is there air? It's because there's air anyhow, Liberals

359
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 6: talk about change. Actually it started. I up and went

360
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 6: to college when the Vietnam what protests were going on.

361
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 6: I went to a I had a professor with a

362
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 6: black armband to say, why are you here.

363
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 2: We've had discussions.

364
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 6: I said, because I need to learn this calculus. That's

365
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 6: why I came to college. So I'm coming to your class.

366
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 6: You need to teach me. And he said that's a

367
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 6: damn good reason. And he went on. Even though he

368
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 6: originally chastised me for not being out protested to get

369
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 6: a black armband. I came to do my job. I

370
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 6: listened to him, I talked to him and everything. But

371
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 6: he was very, very liberal. But on that class he

372
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 6: taught the calculus for assense. And liberals now have progressed

373
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 6: to the point that it's acceptable for the professors in

374
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 6: the name of of academic freedom to prush for change,

375
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,959
Speaker 6: expand the balloon. Anyhow, I hope your kids end up

376
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 6: going to college and having growing through the gross pirts

377
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 6: from a high school. An eighteen year old compared to

378
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 6: a twenty two year old, there's.

379
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 2: A world of difference.

380
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 6: So there's a lot of growing. They're going to be

381
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 6: exposed to a lot of things. I hope they end

382
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 6: up getting an education because education was a currency of

383
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 6: the US American culture. Education was value. That's how you

384
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 6: end up making your life.

385
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 10: Well, let me say, I appreciate your call, appreciate you

386
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 10: being willing to share your own story and your perspectives.

387
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 10: There are a number of things I would clarify from

388
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 10: my own perspective. It's important for people who are new

389
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 10: to our show, and since Kirk Kreutzchmeyer and the folks

390
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 10: at Premiere have been so good at adding so many

391
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,919
Speaker 10: new stations for many of you, we are new to

392
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 10: your market and we're a little different flavor. So I

393
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 10: have to warn you there's some horse radish in here,

394
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 10: there's some peco in here, there's a little there's a

395
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 10: little sting, little bite to what we do and it's

396
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 10: something of an acquired taste. So some of the things

397
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 10: we say are not perhaps typical of what you've heard

398
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 10: on talk radio before. And one thing you need to

399
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 10: understand is my approach to calls is I don't.

400
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: Endorse what a caller says. I believe in the marketplace

401
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 2: of ideas. So I hear people sometimes say, oh, you

402
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 2: had so and so. You know, they'll say of a

403
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 2: TV host, you had so and so on, and you

404
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 2: didn't check him on that, you didn't challenge him on that. Well,

405
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: I subscribe to the theory of letting a guest, whether

406
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 2: that be a caller or a book author or somebody

407
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 2: promoting something or whatever else, make their point because I

408
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 2: trust you to discern from that how you apply that

409
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 2: to what. So I don't agree with some of what

410
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 2: Tim said, but I also don't feel the need to

411
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 2: cut a person off. I will say one area where

412
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 2: I say I disagree is I have long believed I've

413
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 2: long disagreed with the notion of what it means to

414
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 2: quote get an education, a phrase that my parents use.

415
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 2: I don't know that the sole exclusive way you get

416
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 2: an education is go to a college campus. I think

417
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 2: that education should be a lifetime experience, and that successful

418
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: people learn because they're curious over the course of their lives. Often,

419
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 2: when I meet people who do things or have life

420
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: experiences that are quite unlike my own, they will say,

421
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 2: why are you asking me so many questions? Because I'm curious?

422
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 2: Because I find the process of acquiring knowledge and experience

423
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: and perspective to be thrilling and invigorate. It's like a drug.

424
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: And maybe it was my mom who taught me that

425
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 2: when I saw her reading, and for Christmas every year

426
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 2: I got books. I remember in one of the book

427
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 2: it was a little book collection of about eight little

428
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: paperback books, a little small enough you could hold in

429
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 2: one hand, and one of them was the Last of

430
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 2: the Mohicans James Fenimore Cooper, and I remember to this day.

431
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 2: I started reading it on Christmas Day and I was

432
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: transported to the planes and the Indians, and the battles

433
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 2: and the battle cries, and the savagery and the bravery

434
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 2: and the fears and the blood, and it was amazing. Well,

435
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 2: I didn't need to go to a university to learn,

436
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 2: to expand, to experience. I don't think you have to

437
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 2: go to a university to learn. I think A lot

438
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: of guys' education occurred in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam,

439
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 2: or at Bagram Air Force Base or on the streets

440
00:30:54,480 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: of Ramala, or at boot camp or in Mogadishu.
