00:00:09.240 They're collecting your communications.

00:00:21.000 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this week's edition of Thought Crime.

00:00:30.000 thursday here we are we're back hugely successful all-american halftime show tp usa

00:00:38.480 number one u.s live stream of all time number two worldwide live stream on youtube of all time and

00:00:47.360 it's it's you have to just be humbled by god's grace you have to go with jesus you lead you have

00:00:53.760 have to you have to follow the lead i should say of our lord and it's it's it's amazing it's been

00:01:00.360 incredible to see we talked about it last week and obviously we're going to get into it this week now

00:01:05.460 you know kind of the aftermath the uh the incredible outpouring of support this thing

00:01:11.640 broke containment absolutely broke containment and i believe we have uh blake and mikey here

00:01:19.600 today what's up guys how we doing we're doing lovely Tyler's supposed to be here but he's

00:01:24.880 doing that thing where he like flies in late he'll probably have some just kind of t-shirt

00:01:29.160 so Mike you were you weren't here last week so I want to I want to get your take on this you know

00:01:37.720 why was it that the all-american halftime show went as big as it did I think part of it was

00:01:45.160 that families could confidently have their children sit in the living room and watch

00:01:50.880 something knowing confidently that booty cheeks or debauchery wouldn't be on the screen and that

00:01:57.920 they wouldn't have to say kids go in the other room this is not good close your eyes plug your

00:02:02.660 ears and it was a breath of fresh air one it was just exciting it celebrated america

00:02:07.620 but also it uplifted values and it uplifted christ and it uplifted the fact that a lot of

00:02:14.480 people have that bible that's on the shelf that needs a little bit of dusting off um but jack i

00:02:19.600 thought you did a great job introing it um the artist did amazing it was just overall such a

00:02:25.460 massive success i just remember watching it and i was like oh man i just wish that we add this one

00:02:30.380 thing and then you know one minute later it happens you're like this is so great but how

00:02:35.460 about when kid rock jumps out from the stage that intro was one of the greatest so as cool as that

00:02:44.040 was by the way and i saw you tweeting up a storm about that when we were when we were there um on

00:02:48.980 the set and i heard that he had like the jump spring for that like the trap door i was like so

00:02:54.020 um so so can i test that like you know i gotta gotta make sure that it's uh perfectly safe for

00:02:59.620 mr rock so if you guys if you guys need someone to test maybe uh and they're like me like they're

00:03:04.560 like no jack you cannot i was like well i was like we already said i couldn't play with the

00:03:08.740 fireball so you know come on guys they really should have do they always call him mr rock

00:03:13.700 like that like mr kid has he has he legally change his name usually usually um usually you hear bob

00:03:20.660 or like mr richie okay all right it'd be funny if he got you know like an honorary doctorate and

00:03:26.140 they're like dr rock dr rock dr rock that'll be his next iteration but blake i know such a great

00:03:33.540 it's funny you mentioned that real quick that tanya said that my wife tanya said the same thing

00:03:37.640 that um she said for the first time here we are watching this real halftime show and i don't have

00:03:44.460 to have like my my thumb over hovering over the remote you know having to click off because

00:03:51.000 something is there that we don't want to see and she was like it was like good clean fun and actually

00:03:56.800 funny enough she didn't actually like ask me for many you know spoilers in terms of any of that

00:04:02.360 stuff i think she just kind of trusted if it's tp usa like it's going to be good to go that's so

00:04:06.380 great that's so great so i know i've heard so much feedback from different people with that

00:04:11.200 exact same thing they just knew that it was tpsa so they knew it would be fine for their kids

00:04:15.580 um which i just think is so cool but blake do you have like a kid rock impersonation with when he

00:04:20.840 you're in your rock voice no i don't i can't i'm not about your saxon my saxon voice i mean if i

00:04:28.900 want to be this lake's rock if i want to be like a british chav rock star like what would it sound

00:04:33.940 like if if if uh sebastian bach was was singing ball with the ball yeah can you please you're

00:04:41.000 really you're imposing a lot of a lot of when he does my name intensity the problem is i don't

00:04:46.340 the problem among other things is i don't know the word the words to bau with the ball oh dude

00:04:50.320 that was so literally i had never heard of bau with the ball until my name is kid rock yeah i

00:04:55.860 had never heard of bau with the ball until this halftime show came upon us yeah yeah that is my

00:05:01.000 level of detached lived on planet earth come on like in the last couple decades no it's literally

00:05:08.580 look i am music wise as far as i'm concerned music ended in the year 1991 in that one week

00:05:16.080 gap between when guns and roses use your illusion came out and then never mind by nirvana now for

00:05:22.340 that okay there was kind of no more music i grew up thinking i just didn't like music

00:05:26.740 the true story i just didn't like music because i didn't like anything that was on the radio i

00:05:30.720 didn't like any of these rap people i didn't like this new metal i didn't like this hip-hop and

00:05:35.140 it's like all that was or this alt rock yeah never mind ghastly things like radiohead i was a very

00:05:40.540 bad white person and then i as i aged into you know middle school i discovered wait there were

00:05:45.900 these musical albums and songs that were released prior to my birth and they are the the true music

00:05:52.060 of my people the midwestern white guy and so i listened to my midwestern white guy music

00:05:58.500 and occasionally my imported british heavy metal music and you know we have our alternative

00:06:04.040 half times and i'm very happy we put it on and a lot of people liked it but as i've repeatedly

00:06:08.720 said it's it's a bunch of acts that i've never crossed my playlist in my life uh same here

00:06:14.100 that didn't stop me from loving it but then but then okay so that being said what is your sense

00:06:22.800 then of why was it that this took off

00:06:27.080 and just put up the incredible numbers that it did?

00:06:30.260 Well, let's be true.

00:06:32.140 Let's be real.

00:06:33.260 There was a significant push factor going on

00:06:36.420 from the NFL where they allowed Jay-Z

00:06:39.640 to dominate the halftime show.

00:06:41.280 And he came out and he says,

00:06:42.760 we're going to pick the Spanish only guy

00:06:44.920 who hates America to do the halftime show.

00:06:47.640 And then he comes out and he says,

00:06:49.120 I hate America.

00:06:50.440 I'm going to crap on the American flag.

00:06:52.580 you have four months to learn to speak spanish or else and then i'm gonna and then the actual

00:06:58.220 show starts and i don't know if you guys have seen it it's some it's something that would be

00:07:02.560 inflicted on gitmo detainees i'm sure where it's this baffling thing he just kind of babbles in

00:07:09.480 spanish you don't know what he's doing and apparently it was really terrible if you were

00:07:13.300 a fan at the stadium they got so addicted to the the cinema of it being on air so if you were in

00:07:18.600 the lower bowl of levi's stadium everyone just didn't know what was going on and yep it's amazing

00:07:24.240 too to see this aspect of it where the people who are trying to get positive reviews and it's stuff

00:07:28.420 like in that skit they're doing someone is like asleep on two chairs and someone's like oh someone

00:07:35.680 asleep on two chairs bad bunny totally gets the hispanic experience which is this very real thing

00:07:41.580 everyone's going viral this was going viral yeah exactly exactly like one of course so this is so

00:07:46.700 latino this is latino culture and it's like okay latino culture we have this we have this tradition

00:07:53.100 we call it dinner and you eat with other people in your family because in our culture every day

00:07:59.240 food is important my favorite is jack we're texting about this is like

00:08:03.820 like the actual the the translation of his song is there's this guy his video went viral

00:08:12.500 wait do we have the english one do we have the guy oh my gosh do we have it literally tanya tay

00:08:17.500 was has been playing that like 10 times a day since that came out we've done we we have to

00:08:23.700 pull it now we've done a horrible job of show prep as usual but it's like when you actually

00:08:28.840 hear it in yeah english it's like that's what he said like it wasn't even that because like

00:08:34.980 there's good spanish music out there right like j-lo performed before and like shakira okay hold

00:08:41.840 on hold on there's good spanish music and it's yeah you know yeah it's great it's great

00:08:49.900 imagine if they played this at the superbowl that's kind of what they used to running through

00:08:57.320 have you ever seen what they used to have you ever seen what they used to uh what they used to do at

00:09:02.760 the superbowl like i think literally the first superbowl halftime show was a straight up marching

00:09:07.160 band just doing like that was what they had at the packers chiefs first one was acceptable yeah

00:09:13.080 i think it's literally like my auntie asked me how many girlfriends i had and it's like i can't

00:09:20.920 let me see if i yeah muchas novias many girlfriends so he just keeps singing about

00:09:27.660 how many girlfriends he has as god yeah it's like i have a girlfriend one week and then i have a

00:09:33.200 different one the next week and we have these brainless guy and you have a girlfriend like you

00:09:38.640 know the never trump the never trump like cuck con congress like those guys they're doing these

00:09:45.180 comments and they're trying to say among other things this is a very like pro this is like a

00:09:48.860 traditional values pro-family halftime show and they just don't know the lyrics to the songs at

00:09:54.040 all because no one does and no but i'm but i'm like i'm making a criticism of it from from a

00:10:01.340 musical perspective right like not even beyond the lyrics beyond the obvious like open borders

00:10:07.080 globalism display all of like the ridiculous like oh we sleep on chairs sometimes at weddings when

00:10:12.400 we're kids like you you mean like literally all kids um would do but no it's it's like it's not

00:10:20.060 catchy there's no hooks there's no chorus like i'm not gonna sit here and say that like i listen

00:10:25.760 to shakira but like people could probably name a couple shakira songs they could probably hung

00:10:31.100 hum a chorus you know mikey of course you know is actually a big mike people don't know this

00:10:37.000 about mikey mccoy he has a giant shakira tattoo all the way across his back um that he received

00:10:43.120 in tijuana you know we can't show it on air because again family show but um you know it's

00:10:48.080 something that he's really proud of wait oh shakira did the waka waka song for the south africa world

00:10:53.200 cup yeah yeah yeah i i know that song it is a song i've listened to i think it's kind of funny

00:10:59.840 that they got shakira to make their like crypto african but everybody at least knows who shakira

00:11:04.520 is you know i didn't know that she was the waka waka singer until now here's here's the thing i

00:11:10.060 brought this up on pierce morgan this week because we got into it and he was all he was doing this

00:11:13.500 whole like well you guys just did that because he's hispanic and blah blah blah and i was like

00:11:19.520 and i was like uh actually no people got mad at him because he was disrespecting the american

00:11:25.180 people because he politicized things and i can prove this and he's like okay prove it i said

00:11:30.340 all right is this i was like okay is this the first time that bad bunny has performed at a

00:11:34.720 super bowl and everyone on the panel was like uh i said no it's not the first time it's the second

00:11:40.640 time he's performed at the super bowl everybody forgets that when shakira performed back in 2020

00:11:45.940 the guy who got up on stage to rap with her during the one spanish song was actually bad bunny and

00:11:53.060 you know what there was no like backlash there was no controversy about it because he just stuck to

00:12:00.180 music and nobody really cared but obviously that was before this big push to politicize him and

00:12:06.200 politicize everything and before he was being disrespectful to americans and so he didn't get

00:12:12.460 the headlines he's an attention seeker that's what all of this was about so no it wasn't about

00:12:18.600 his music or his language you know i mean a little bit about the language but that's different

00:12:23.200 it was because of the disrespect but again like ricky martin sang in spanish and nobody cared

00:12:28.320 because ricky martin's actually a good singer so yeah i don't know any ricky martin songs by the

00:12:34.580 way zuzu's pedals donated two dollars and says they should have chosen tito puente for decent

00:12:40.000 latino music i don't know who that is no idea what that is maybe it's amazing what are you

00:12:44.300 talking about he did the song when uh when mr burns died i don't know who tt puente is i don't

00:12:49.700 know any of these jack i had a similar scenario happen where people were like why are you guys

00:12:54.020 doing this i was like look i could make an argument that it's he's anti-american you know

00:12:59.200 he he wants a bunch of foreigners in our country yada yada yada you know dresses up like a

00:13:04.760 transvestite in his music videos and anti-president trump all these things but ultimately and i said

00:13:10.820 this there was like 20 people there i said ultimately let me ask you guys a question

00:13:15.120 open-ended to everybody in this room can you name me one bad bunny song just one that's your favorite

00:13:23.160 and if you can can you also name just one portion of the lyrics that you can sing and not a single

00:13:31.260 person in the room who is arguing against me could do that i said so maybe i can sing it i i can do

00:13:36.780 hey hey hey hey okay okay okay but look that's the whole maybe we just did it because that's

00:13:48.420 how people hear the song yeah maybe people don't know who he is and they they're pretending they

00:13:53.140 do a bunch of people i'm like i it's just funny because i feel like you know people are like oh

00:14:01.720 like obviously i was like you know introing the halftime show for tpsa and then like had the

00:14:07.800 tweets about it last year but i was like i was like i feel like i actually know more about bad

00:14:11.640 bunny than like the average person in this too because yeah i would be pointing out that the

00:14:16.200 reason i knew about him before it wasn't the shakira thing i had no idea i had to look that up

00:14:21.000 but then i had i i um i knew that he was they inserted him as this the caddy like the sidekick

00:14:28.760 character with this huge subplot in happy gilmore 2 and so when they did that i was like who's this

00:14:34.040 random like spanish character that they're adding like why is he there instead of you know like the

00:14:39.880 actual uh cast of happy gilmore 1 and they're giving him all the screen time and like why is

00:14:45.080 netflix doing this and then i found out it was bad bunny it's like oh so that's you know another

00:14:49.880 another corporate edition we're just trying to just like jam him you know into the whole thing

00:14:54.760 it was so ridiculous i think we have that clip yeah i think is it is it loaded guys is it it is

00:15:01.040 not loaded we're all dying to see this i really want to see this because i actually saw it but

00:15:05.720 i didn't listen to it i just kind of i'm i'm kidding you i'm not even joking that tanya tay

00:15:11.360 has played this over and over she thinks it's the funniest thing that she's ever heard

00:15:15.780 we'll be sitting because she was playing it and i was like oh yeah that's really funny she was like

00:15:20.080 no but you have to listen to it i'm like no i actually heard it this morning no but you have

00:15:22.740 listen to it now and then and then i walked away and i was like doing something in the other room

00:15:29.440 and i just hear i just hear coming from her it's like she's just playing it over and over

00:15:34.420 it's loaded racking up all right we've got it we've got it all right yeah play 520

00:15:39.460 the english version hey so my ntsb why got so many girlfriends hey a lot of girlfriends today

00:15:47.460 I got one and tomorrow got another one, but I never marry you.

00:15:51.800 My auntie asked me why I got so many girlfriends.

00:15:54.600 Ay, a lot of girlfriends.

00:15:56.440 Today I got one and tomorrow got another one.

00:15:59.580 Man, I think I want to take them all to the VIP, to the VIP.

00:16:03.400 Ay, well, they can be my auntie and we're going to take a selfie and say cheese.

00:16:07.580 They smile if they've already been with me in the VIP, in the VIP.

00:16:11.880 Ay, well, they can be my auntie and we're going to take a selfie and say cheese.

00:16:15.800 this is just so low quality music like any tiktoker who makes music could make something

00:16:33.000 just like that like how is this any different from like a soundcloud mumble rapper that's

00:16:39.440 exactly what it is it literally is i like to like one of the one of the tweets i saw during the

00:16:46.700 super bowl was if i was running for president of a latin country my platform would be to bring

00:16:51.880 latin music a second drum beat dang dang and you know i thought that was just a funny joke and then

00:17:00.640 i looked it up latin drum beat and there's literally a wikipedia article for the drum beat

00:17:04.820 that they use in like all latin american music it's called the trecillo and it's this sound

00:17:10.700 thing like kind of a kick kick snare kind of nice that's all bad bunny i mean it's kind of true i

00:17:19.420 gotta say it's it's just it's just legit i'm just gonna you want real thought wow look at this

00:17:25.720 incredible comment when jack introduced the all-american halftime show he looks so good

00:17:30.640 peak american and masculinity thank you mk brand 28 wow i completely agree wow that's crazy i didn't

00:17:36.780 know jack had a second account on rumble no i'm not even signed in i was literally just signing

00:17:42.640 into the chat and then they're also saying wakanda is iconic and also that shakira got in trouble for

00:17:48.960 tax evasion no pardon shapira shakira pardon shakira pardon shakira pardon her pardon shakira

00:17:57.060 leave Shakira alone

00:18:00.160 yes this is good

00:18:01.940 JD needs to run on this

00:18:04.220 this is his one campaign

00:18:06.320 what he's running on

00:18:07.520 and I'm a one issue voter

00:18:09.740 pardon Shakira

00:18:10.980 she's not American she's Colombian

00:18:14.360 she can still get pardoned

00:18:16.260 if she was evading US taxes

00:18:17.700 she can still get imprisoned for invading US taxes

00:18:19.920 we are not pardoning Maduro though

00:18:20.840 that's going to be the big issue

00:18:23.580 because they talk about Marco Rubio

00:18:25.440 or someone challenging JD like what if it just

00:18:27.520 turns into the Shakira battle

00:18:28.900 and like one says death penalty for Shakira

00:18:31.680 and the other says pardon Shakira

00:18:33.140 and as a supporter of

00:18:35.400 western civilizations music

00:18:37.400 I think I would have to go with the death penalty for Shakira

00:18:39.640 oh wait Zuzu's Petals

00:18:41.420 is saying the tax evasion was in Spain

00:18:43.320 so

00:18:44.280 oh we're fine

00:18:45.420 Spain has no legal right to anybody's money

00:18:49.180 yeah no yeah no never mind

00:18:51.660 okay we should pardon her

00:18:53.440 then pardon her

00:18:54.420 President Trump should pardon her for a Spanish crime.

00:18:57.020 Shakira lives.

00:18:58.140 So is she not allowed to step foot in Spain or she's arrested?

00:19:01.040 I'm not sure.

00:19:02.520 Well, they just legalized all the, what, 500,000 illegal aliens in Spain.

00:19:08.240 So, you know, I guess you can just commit whatever crime you want.

00:19:12.360 Guys, they got us another excellent clip of the halftime show.

00:19:16.700 This is every time Bad Bunny says, eh, in the halftime show.

00:19:20.660 Let's play it.

00:19:21.520 5-21.

00:19:22.460 Hey everyone.

00:19:52.460 That was 51 ois over the course of that 20-minute show.

00:19:56.920 That's actually impressive because I think he was only on stage

00:19:58.720 for like 14 minutes or something.

00:20:00.620 Yeah, that's a lot of that.

00:20:01.780 So 51 divided by 14, that's almost four ois a minute.

00:20:07.180 Because they had to bring the whole set into the stadium during the half.

00:20:12.800 So for every Super Bowl halftime, you have to set up

00:20:16.020 because you can't play during the game, right?

00:20:18.500 So you can't set up during the game because the game is being played.

00:20:20.220 so that setup and breakdown time goes into how long your performance is where obviously we didn't

00:20:26.580 have that issue because we were not in the middle of a football game and so I think ours was probably

00:20:32.540 twice as long as theirs give or take or maybe a little bit I think they were like 14 minutes and

00:20:37.440 we were like 22 minutes so not quite twice as long but but getting there and you know I you know

00:20:43.380 next year I mean gosh the the sky is the limit for next year I've had people pitching like you

00:20:48.540 know you guys could do an hour you guys could do an entire day and like the finale is the halftime

00:20:53.580 show i mean it's it's it's it's kind of crazy yeah but you know the the because you have to

00:20:59.480 understand we had like we had three months but it wasn't even really three months because we had

00:21:04.920 amfest in the middle and then we had christmas and new years and so it was really more like two

00:21:09.680 months you know of time other than just reaching out to venues casting that wide net and look we

00:21:16.960 we talked about this a little bit when I was on with Andrew, you know,

00:21:21.140 before on thought crime,

00:21:24.260 but we had a lot of pressure against us from, you know,

00:21:28.360 elements of the industry elements of, you know, different, different,

00:21:32.920 I think probably money and sponsors that were, you know,

00:21:36.980 probably thinking, Hey,

00:21:38.060 if we support someone or work with someone who's going to be going up against

00:21:43.100 the NFL, then that's like putting a black mark on us.

00:21:46.560 So that's why, for me, I just, I'm so grateful to all the musicians that came out and took the chance and, you know, Kid Rock as well for, you know, bringing his incredible star power, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Bryce, Gabby Barrett, who's, you know, I think really become the breakout star of all this, fellow Pennsylvanian like myself, by the way.

00:22:06.900 and uh oh by the way that one of the controversies that and blake i'm sure you've seen this and as

00:22:11.820 well as the number of like there's like the ratings controversy but the the lip sync controversy have

00:22:17.380 you guys seen that they're accusing him of lip syncing yeah i saw that not true not true guys

00:22:23.320 i'm telling you i was right there he's and i have footage from the set and i guess we have like

00:22:28.280 master footage too that we could probably um you know see if they really wanted us to like go to

00:22:33.760 that level which is crazy he's not lip syncing it was it was a sync issue on the stream it was

00:22:38.540 literally we had so many people watching that it just it was like you know just a glitch on the

00:22:42.780 stream where everything was out of sync the video and audio which is and also it's like at least he

00:22:47.220 can still and as a result it means he can still perform unlike uh have you ever heard bad bunny

00:22:52.000 when his uh auto tune adjuster went out and he just is that true i saw that one going around but

00:22:57.880 i didn't know if that was that was a real incident that was grok said it was real and i've gotten

00:23:01.820 lazy to the point have i fallen victim to another fake i mean maybe it's fake but i choose to

00:23:07.580 believe it anyway that should be a thought crime topic you want my thought crime all this has

00:23:11.880 taught me i'm ready for i'm ready for my thought crime like there are not even not even just like

00:23:17.720 sweden itself but like there are probably i would say specific provinces of sweden that have produced

00:23:23.840 more good music than all of latin america and and specific probably specific parts probably

00:23:31.840 specific cities let's say specific cities in the uk like liverpool has produced more great music

00:23:37.740 for humanity than every single city from tijuana to tierra del fuego can you name people are saying

00:23:46.900 we need the all-american pre-game show for 2027 as well as the all-american halftime show

00:23:52.640 we might even have to have like an all all-american festival or something i don't know

00:23:56.940 the all-american music festival i like this this is a good you guys have some good ideas

00:24:04.440 that was uh no we were i was actually on with tim pool last night on his show and he was saying

00:24:08.940 guys you could do it like with numbers like that you could put on an entire day long festival and

00:24:13.760 here is here is his idea which was really good because one of the issues that we would have then

00:24:17.620 if we were doing um the live festival that way is we would also have that same issue of setup and

00:24:22.880 breakdown between bands but his idea was two stages right you do two stages one you know one

00:24:30.720 like stage a stage b yeah and then you know stage a has a band they play whatever blah blah then they

00:24:36.900 go to break down and a band kicks off on stage b so throughout the day you could have it switching

00:24:41.420 back and forth and then there's no it's you know it's just seamless i like this i like this idea

00:24:48.160 so let's get if you guys are in the chat especially super chat you know who who would

00:24:53.500 you like to see um one thing though you know ask us who'd you like to see it for next year but at

00:24:58.380 the same time and email 1776 at human events.com or freedom charlie kirk.com about who you'd like

00:25:04.060 to see but i will say though that this was definitely a crash course i think for and a

00:25:08.300 learning curve for a lot of us that it's it's not even up to the artist sometimes regarding songs

00:25:13.860 regarding um the rights regarding like things they can do people they can play with there's so

00:25:20.100 many contracts there's so many labels there's so many just different like layers of complexity to

00:25:28.240 whether or not you can perform one of these things like we we lost the x live stream just a couple of

00:25:33.240 hours before we went live and you know i think though in a sense that that was actually kind of

00:25:39.880 maybe a godsend like that was actually maybe part of god's plan because when we tweeted out that we

00:25:45.940 lost x that drove more people to youtube and rumble and perhaps we wouldn't have hit the record

00:25:52.580 if that hadn't happened you never know right do we have tyler do we yeah we have tyler tyler has

00:25:59.000 has shown up we were discussing i i gave my guys we're still talking the halftime show

00:26:04.040 and we were talking we we here's the highlight so far uh bad bunny about he averages about four

00:26:11.040 a minute during his super bowl show uh i'm not trying to be like charlie kirk here because

00:26:16.620 charlie would totally do this he'd be like what is this like yeah what is it he would have leaned

00:26:21.040 like way i legitimately went back and was watching it and i was like this is a very bad performance

00:26:28.480 i don't know it's it's no question why people in the stands weren't moving at all and i know

00:26:33.700 we have to be careful you know exactly how we talk about this but like any any that in this

00:26:39.780 it reminded me a few years ago i was watching it because like old school halftime shows were like

00:26:47.340 it was like janet jackson someone big like middle of the stage like everybody's into it everything

00:26:53.060 gets dark i just was watching this whole thing it was like it was like bright lights you know

00:26:59.520 because it was the sun hadn't gone down and it was just weird and awkward and like nobody was

00:27:04.360 feeling it nope and they just have to be honest about it you know it's like no one was feeling it

00:27:09.700 nobody was feeling and that's what i was nervous about was our all-american halftime show when we

00:27:14.820 flipped over i was worried that it would look like less um like less production quality than like a

00:27:22.160 like a multi like tens of millions of dollars that they spend on on you know normal halftime

00:27:27.500 stuff yeah and it's like no ours actually looked way better yes ours looked more like a real

00:27:32.560 halftime show big time like so i that's what everybody was saying was like everybody like

00:27:37.520 felt it felt normal yes it wasn't just that it felt american it felt normal like what it's

00:27:44.080 supposed to be yeah we actually have some b-roll of this can we play clip uh 280 guys i think this

00:27:51.240 back up what tyler's saying so this is uh amanda van amanda vance and she's um watching our

00:28:01.800 halftime show while at the actual halftime show at the actual super and she's moving more than

00:28:07.880 everybody else around and look at all the people around her look at and there's so many videos

00:28:12.840 like this where it's going viral that people were just standing around totally disconnected

00:28:18.360 and like you can't even really see the show either like it's tyler so this speaks to what

00:28:24.900 you're saying that the people in the stands couldn't even tell what was going on down there

00:28:29.080 because it just looks like this weird thicket of grasses it looked like no it's like when the

00:28:33.780 velociraptors come out during jurassic park and you just see like the grass moving like i don't

00:28:38.600 know like that's that's it and i i have a piece of me that's like i i kind of appreciate a little

00:28:43.540 hood rap music every once in a while like i've like i've you know again i've been around for

00:28:48.260 i have friends that like that's like their music preference of choice it's not my black friends

00:28:53.620 but like yeah i've had a cool i've i've had a few you know uh friends and so like like i can

00:29:02.040 appreciate when music's good right like and it's a little bit too this legitimately was not good

00:29:09.120 it made me feel so much better

00:29:13.100 I was like, oh, this was

00:29:14.640 really justified

00:29:16.700 what we did here

00:29:18.140 Tyler's saying, I enjoy a little hood rap music

00:29:21.360 every once in a while, it reminds me of the post

00:29:23.100 Jackie put up the other day

00:29:24.320 with you and James O'Keefe, you're like, God forbid

00:29:26.440 a couple white boys get a little

00:29:28.760 groove, God forbid

00:29:30.840 God forbid a couple of white boys get a little

00:29:32.760 motion

00:29:33.080 we can play that if we want

00:29:36.900 because we went to Hispanic Prosperity Gala

00:29:38.760 yeah exactly great time and there was a singer nacho from venezuela he was phenomenal and he

00:29:46.160 was playing live and he's got like you know millions and millions of fans around the world

00:29:50.880 and it's like this is music that has a beat it's catchy it's got a hook to it it's got a chorus

00:29:58.140 he's like an actually talented singer he's not a mumble rapper i mean i just don't understand

00:30:03.660 where people get around they're saying mumbling is something that you want when it comes to

00:30:08.500 music um where where's what this was and and yeah tyler like i guess the issue now is that they

00:30:15.460 they make these halftime shows they did this last year as well where they make it for the tv audience

00:30:21.180 only and they don't care about the audience that's actually there so the people in the stands are like

00:30:26.820 yeah it's it's dumb because it's not the spectacle that you would expect it's more like

00:30:33.180 a tv show or like a music video kind of shoot it's just not the big super bowl halftime spectacle

00:30:40.600 that i think people are used to you know like a stage dancers fireworks i'm very i'm upset and i

00:30:46.980 could be totally wrong about this i could be misremembering but this is how i felt i felt

00:30:50.820 like the like the halftime show that was during the big game was always geared towards my parents

00:30:58.260 yeah when i was growing up like you're right it was always geared towards my parents and now i'm

00:31:02.700 a parent and it's not geared towards me it's geared towards international international like

00:31:08.060 uh yeah globalism yeah and non-american globalist like non-american truly and again i again

00:31:15.820 puerto rico puerto rican he doesn't seem to think so yeah here's a thought he wasn't puerto rico

00:31:21.720 was america why did they have their flag next to the american flag at that show here's the point

00:31:26.460 puerto rico is not a state so it's not america so that's just number one number two is that

00:31:31.280 the the words in his songs are talking about women from lots of different countries

00:31:36.780 he was yeah he's using he's appropriating his sub-american culture as puerto rican

00:31:43.420 to try to hook up with all these other south american and central american women

00:31:48.740 it's in the words it's right there in the words he's he's a colonization hooker upper

00:31:54.900 that's right he's calling guys putter here to hear the translation i think i think we might

00:32:01.740 have to go and play the translation for tyler again just so that he knows what what he's

00:32:06.060 actually commenting on i think i think we have to hit it again it's high quality music all right

00:32:11.200 play it again the english version hey so my ntsb why i got so many girlfriends hey a lot of

00:32:19.520 I can get on board if this guy would have performed in English.

00:32:31.020 I know.

00:32:32.020 I actually think people would have been moving.

00:32:34.520 People in the stands.

00:32:35.520 You know what would have been funny?

00:32:36.520 It would have been funny to put this guy.

00:32:39.520 Our alternate halftime show should have been this guy.

00:32:42.520 Yeah.

00:32:43.520 Wait, wait, wait.

00:32:46.520 Can you imagine?

00:32:47.520 We have an all-American halftime show and then we have an Americanized version of their

00:32:53.180 halftime show and then their halftime show.

00:32:56.180 And next year, if they get some really awful, like one of those rappers who just raps about

00:33:03.340 all the felonies he does, we do a version that's like same beat, but he's rapping about

00:33:07.900 like all the community service.

00:33:09.340 Yeah, like community service.

00:33:10.560 All the guys like, yeah, I roll into the club.

00:33:13.300 I help out the homeless guys there.

00:33:15.300 yeah i go on the freeway and clean up trash yeah i drive a toyota avalon it's a responsible

00:33:22.300 middle class car i get my oil change every 3 000 miles coffee and donuts at the library

00:33:32.080 no drag queens

00:33:33.440 so good yeah i got five kids all with my wife

00:33:41.460 but that's that that's the old chris rock bit where he's like yeah he's like i ain't never been

00:33:47.180 to prison to prison to prison he's like you're not supposed to go to prison because i take care

00:33:53.320 of my kids you're not you're supposed to take care of your kids like why do you want credit

00:33:57.500 for stuff you're supposed to do it's back when chris rock was actually oh we got another we got

00:34:01.560 another dono from zuzu's pedals five this time thank you very much zuzu let's go remember when

00:34:06.120 whitney houston sang the national anthem at the super bowl back when it was patriotic no i don't

00:34:11.080 because i believe i was zero years old when that happened but it is a great video it's a great

00:34:17.000 uh national anthem and yes that is that's actually like iconic it's iconic it's about

00:34:22.620 when i feel the super bowl probably be okay but guys charlie pooth did okay he did he did good

00:34:28.320 he did a great job again nobody this is the sad part nobody's talking about that nobody's talking

00:34:33.680 nobody's talking about that he did he crushed the national anthem he did yeah yeah he did like

00:34:38.840 that's where america should be centering on right it's like okay maybe a guy probably not

00:34:44.200 yeah a conservative not you know whatever right but crushes the national anthem wait you weren't

00:34:50.600 you weren't alive in 1991 hell yeah oh i was alive i was zero years old oh you were zero yeah i was

00:34:56.460 negative negative years yeah i was definitely alive jack and i were you even born when like

00:35:03.940 9-11 happened no oh my gosh i will never see anyone a few weeks after i will never see anyone

00:35:10.780 born after 9-11 as an adult like even when i'm 70 and there are like 60 year old post 9-11 they

00:35:17.140 will still be children to me yeah my friend growing up just summarily reject it my friend

00:35:22.380 growing up was born on 9-11 oh wow oh my so you're saying there's a connection

00:35:26.800 yeah you're really suspicious there's thousands of days he could have been born on and he was

00:35:35.080 born on that day huh really weird yeah it's weird i don't like it huh i've never heard a story of

00:35:41.240 somebody that was supposed to uh go to work that day though there that really birth i've never

00:35:47.540 heard that story yeah i've heard a lot of stories people that didn't go to work but

00:35:51.080 give me birthday day that's weird uh all right they didn't happen to give birth in like ward

00:35:57.420 seven of that hospital did they oh gosh no the the weirdest 9-11 story i know um not weirdest

00:36:04.480 but just like i think most in a sense unique is um i knew a guy who was in a motorcycle accident

00:36:11.460 like the day before on 9 10 um 2011 or excuse me 2001 and i'm thinking 11 and so he was in

00:36:21.460 like a medical coma on 9 11 and then he wakes up on 9 12 and is like hey so did i miss anything

00:36:31.180 and everyone's like uh and they had to go to him and tell him and like he didn't believe anyone

00:36:38.180 obviously and then they show him the footage and he was like there's no way dude but it was so

00:36:44.200 weird because like he didn't have that emotional response to it because everyone else had gone

00:36:48.820 through the trauma of that day and you know not knowing whether or not um you know something else

00:36:54.100 like people everybody thought there was going to be more attacks right everybody thought there's

00:36:57.900 more going on whereas he's just walking around seeing flags everywhere like sort of confused

00:37:03.480 about how that happened it's kind of wild very very like 28 days later like the whole world

00:37:08.240 changes and you wake up all right what's our uh what's our next topic all righty well we have a

00:37:14.500 few options we could talk i really like i wanted to get tyler's take on next year no no no i think

00:37:23.280 tyler's getting exhausted and we have to make sure we hit it do you want to talk more about

00:37:26.280 i already said what we went next year next year we go twice as three times four times harder

00:37:31.080 way way more uh way more awareness i think you get a much bigger audience i think it continues

00:37:39.320 to grow like there's nothing here that says you should slow down no everything everything here

00:37:45.560 says pedals of the metal make it bigger make it better the logo is great the branding was great

00:37:50.820 everything worked everything was great everything everything was great like you have to do this

00:37:55.020 bigger and better and you have to scare everybody and then because if you do it in enough advance

00:38:00.780 now now i mean again like advertisers and things like that are really going to be

00:38:07.020 you know twisting the screws here so yeah i'll just say tyler i don't know if you caught i know

00:38:13.460 we we chatted a little bit but if you go back and watch when i did tim cast last night i mean he was

00:38:17.960 just couldn't be more praiseworthy and he was like just all in just all in and i've heard from a lot

00:38:24.580 of people you know who are you know other hosts of shows and different things where people are

00:38:30.720 people are just honestly shocked just absolutely shocked that it was record-breaking uh viewing

00:38:36.900 where can i can i can i speed and the production quality can i uh pump up turning point usa too

00:38:42.720 again i'm on the turning point action side please do turning point usa this was a turning point usa

00:38:46.760 event i got a lot of credit for doing nothing other than just helping organize years worth

00:38:53.520 turning point but i did nothing with this this was our entire team at turning point usa uh the

00:38:59.100 the entire team at turning point usa lauren tonsish's team the events marina we just had the

00:39:04.500 baby days before uh and the entire media which i guess we're talking about publicly now did she

00:39:10.640 is it true that she named her baby all-american halftime show minas kid rock it was kid rock yeah

00:39:19.540 Yeah.

00:39:19.920 You're a little confused.

00:39:20.980 She named it Mr. Kid Rock.

00:39:23.100 And they were like.

00:39:23.720 Was it one word or two?

00:39:24.660 I thought it was Benita.

00:39:25.720 Kid Rock.

00:39:26.180 Two first names.

00:39:26.820 And she was like, yeah, you get a problem with that.

00:39:28.460 I thought it was Benita.

00:39:28.860 Baby Benita.

00:39:29.460 Oh, wait.

00:39:29.800 I got it right.

00:39:30.300 No, I remember now.

00:39:31.040 The full name was Kid Rock All-American Halftime Show.

00:39:33.960 I thought it was Benita Antonio.

00:39:38.360 Whatever.

00:39:38.960 Bad Bunny's full name.

00:39:40.200 Maybe we're just not remembering.

00:39:42.600 No, but all of the good people.

00:39:44.380 But here's the point I was getting around to making.

00:39:46.620 turning point usa could have probably raised and charged millions and millions of dollars to do a

00:39:55.160 bunch of ads sponsorships all that stuff and intentionally did not do that this was a this was

00:40:01.960 a uh did not make any kind of revenue did not turn this into a revenue thing when it was very clear

00:40:08.620 that this could be easily be a revenue thing because that wasn't what the purpose was the

00:40:12.820 purpose of this was to live up to the expectations things that charlie jack you had you had verbalized

00:40:18.540 this very well things that charlie had said that really bothered him that he would want to see done

00:40:23.200 and make it really cleanly just about that just about giving america's alternative in the first

00:40:28.740 place that's what i was thinking of like i just had so i applaud it's like i could hear charlie

00:40:33.400 in my head just going off just the way he had all the years prior and i you know we had joked about

00:40:41.700 maybe doing something like this and i just i just kind of typed it up and tweet went the way it went

00:40:48.160 and then we talked about it on the show and that that went pretty on on this show right here on

00:40:52.620 thought crime and that went that's super viral too and yeah but but here's the point is that

00:40:57.220 people looked at this and went like you guys would be crazy not to monetize this or do things or raise

00:41:01.920 money for turning point that that would go back to the the 501c3 to help operations do all that

00:41:07.520 but this was so much bigger than that yeah and culturally and so for anybody that's like looks

00:41:13.180 at this and goes oh you know turning points trying to just raise money all the time it's like no

00:41:17.640 guys like the biggest things that we there was no lower third with the qr code and all that there

00:41:23.380 was not this was cleanly just give americans an alternative and prove a point and they did that

00:41:29.860 uh the entire team did that i thought that was really classy i thought that was really important

00:41:35.040 that nobody felt like they were being uh nobody looked at this as like oh well this is just

00:41:42.000 another play and i saw a few people that no hard sales a lot of haters that were like

00:41:46.900 these people that are like oh well yeah i didn't follow that buddy but i don't watch that either

00:41:52.320 because although tyler you did have an idea and perhaps we should still do it um of doing like

00:41:58.520 maybe like a t-shirt or something like like like make it like a concert shirt that people could

00:42:04.060 get a tp usa shirt where it's got like the you know the bands the axe on the front and then on

00:42:10.160 the back it's got like that you know like it's like a classic t-shirt like a list of of everyone

00:42:14.640 who performed and you could have like i you know the all-american halftime show and then put the

00:42:19.660 year and then every year we could do a new shirt yeah my i i still think we need a shirt that says

00:42:25.640 i switched the channel on whatever last sunday was put that on the back i switched the channel

00:42:31.180 or whatever yeah no boomers would love that boomers would definitely boomers would love a

00:42:36.280 shirt they would wear a t-shirt to home depot that was like i switched the channel and then like

00:42:42.100 like walking around you know with like when you guys tyler don't you mean like a true man a true

00:42:47.440 man doesn't get a car so you have like light bulbs in one arm you're gonna drop them and like you're

00:42:52.640 getting like packs of screws and another hand and you got like a two random two by four you're like

00:43:25.640 given Saturday. You will get high

00:43:27.640 fives all over

00:43:29.760 that store. We got another message from

00:43:31.460 Zuzu. She says that many songs sang

00:43:33.520 in the All-American Halftime Show went

00:43:35.580 top 10 on iTunes.

00:43:37.520 That could be part of it. You make it the

00:43:39.500 symbolic thing. Every song that's performed

00:43:41.500 just make it 1 through 10

00:43:43.380 on iTunes or on

00:43:45.340 Spotify or whatever app they'll be

00:43:47.460 listening to music on by that time.

00:43:50.160 I love hearing them too

00:43:51.340 But because, by the way, and this is something that, OK, I do have like so there were there's this argument that keeps getting made about like the ratings and all the rest.

00:44:00.160 And everyone's always like, oh, well, you guys didn't beat the Super Bowl.

00:44:02.780 Like we never said we were going to beat the Super Bowl.

00:44:04.400 We said we were going to do something that would that would rival, that would take a chunk away, et cetera, which we did, obviously.

00:44:10.880 But then when you look at all of those sort of ephemeral cases of, OK, well, what are other data points we can look at to see what the impact was?

00:44:21.220 And again, it's Kid Rock on the top of the U.S. charts.

00:44:24.560 Gabby Barrett was right there, like number four, number five, a couple of songs up because she was such a breakout star in terms of this.

00:44:31.240 By the way, 25 years old, married at 19, three kids already.

00:44:35.780 I mean, like that's that's the Charlie Kirk.

00:44:38.200 It's all American.

00:44:38.380 You know, that is the Charlie Kirk motto, get married, have kids, be successful.

00:44:43.440 She's doing it.

00:44:44.360 What an incredible star.

00:44:45.700 Great person to work with, like super down to earth.

00:44:48.600 Like, like literally one of the nicest people I've ever met.

00:44:51.200 Not like the diva that, you know, people seem to think that like all musician, you know, musical acts are going to be.

00:44:58.500 And, but then the way the Nielsen ratings get computed, that's like, I feel like, Tyler, I kind of feel like they're, you know,

00:45:06.940 they're doing this apples to oranges thing because our streaming numbers are based off of

00:45:13.360 devices so the number of tvs the number of screens the number of um the number of of accounts whatever

00:45:21.140 but nielsen they don't do households they do the household number and then they multiply it by three

00:45:27.060 right did you guys know this no i didn't know yeah yeah it's it's i've seen everything from

00:45:32.680 2.4 to 3.4 yeah right so like rightfully said like i think that's true though because you know most

00:45:38.640 people don't watch the super bowl alone you're probably going to be in a room with like a number

00:45:42.080 of people so you average that out and you say like okay we'll take some multiple and call it okay it's

00:45:47.540 three so if you had 50 million households they'll say it was 150 million right just to use that

00:45:52.120 but they don't do that to our numbers right for our numbers it's it's only what goes by device

00:45:57.820 so they'll say oh well you had 25 million like well if we used your metric then wouldn't it be

00:46:02.720 75 million right or if we had 30 million would it be 90 million because they we don't do that

00:46:08.620 with our numbers and like that's and i just don't think that's true i mean here's the reality when

00:46:13.160 i watched it i was in a room with like 30 people here's the reality the numbers are much bigger

00:46:18.700 than what people were trying to report it as right because when you actually start calculating the

00:46:25.880 number of views with that metric because i have friends that are in the marketing world that have

00:46:32.000 put on these these types of events that have done ads on the big game days yeah and uh he told me

00:46:40.300 specifically because he's he's funded these entire big ads that the conservative estimates a 2.4

00:46:47.040 multiplier views um realistically it's probably closer to like three to four person so i mean

00:46:55.240 we're talking i mean we're talking if that's the case we're talking that there's a real possibility

00:47:00.780 that um this production took like literally half the viewership we i mean it totally broke

00:47:10.440 containment it's crazy it really did and that's that's how you know god was involved that's how

00:47:15.260 you know it's it's god because it's not us this was being brought up the biggest events outside

00:47:20.520 of the big game like the biggest events like they're on tv like yeah dancing with the stars

00:47:25.600 and american idol and all those things those things get like five six seven million views

00:47:31.020 like we're talking like this was probably like five to eight times bigger than that

00:47:38.620 as a brand as an outside organization with no capitalization from the major media

00:47:44.120 networks like that's insane guys like it just doesn't happen so anyways we could talk about

00:47:49.380 it for hours by the way yeah like like like there were no like quickly yeah we had with the same

00:47:56.000 with the same team that we used to do the events it wasn't like some we had some like extra director

00:48:01.240 coming in or like anything like that like literally the same team i've i saw people somebody

00:48:07.180 called me i won't say who it was but they're an important person and they're like after watching

00:48:12.060 what the turning point team was able to do with charlie's memorial which was like you you have to

00:48:18.520 believe that that was god's hand just making that you know successful because it was so huge and so

00:48:24.240 many people and it was so hard to do so quickly and everybody was so emotional during that time

00:48:29.080 but like watching everybody pull together and do this thing then too people are like wow this is

00:48:35.780 actually like a very scary unit here that we're up against yeah and what scares when people even

00:48:42.060 more is when they start realizing the funny part is it's like i can understand now why there's

00:48:47.380 conspiracy theories that think that we have all the support from like places that we don't because

00:48:54.000 it almost is it doesn't make sense how capable this team is does that make sense like so i

00:49:00.880 actually have a soft spot people were saying that we it was botted and i'm like okay if that's botted

00:49:05.700 traffic then you guys do it right you guys you guys just go buy a bunch of bots and run a live

00:49:11.040 stream and see if you get you know number one u.s live stream of all time go right ahead the the most

00:49:15.840 powerful company in this world is getting botted yeah i can promise you something i can promise

00:49:22.480 you the most powerful company in this world is not thrilled about turning point usa having the

00:49:28.880 number one streamed event ever in american history i just i'm gonna promise you they they did not see

00:49:34.440 that coming yeah it was this and that's the whole funny part of this whole thing this is a sneak

00:49:38.160 attack this whole thing if they would have had more time they would have figured out how to stop

00:49:43.040 us i'm i'm telling you this is a company just five years ago that was kicking all of us off

00:49:48.360 the internet coming they didn't see it coming at all this entire this company was kicking us

00:49:51.960 off the internet and demonetizing every single one of us yep and like by name sending lobbyists

00:49:57.900 into washington dc to to work with their tech friends to debank us i mean i'm telling you

00:50:03.580 this is literally these are not anyone's friends here at turning point usa

00:50:07.940 no and and kudos and by the way shout out of course to the rumble team as well for just just

00:50:14.720 being there being so supportive uh chris pavlovsky he and i were chatting like right before it went

00:50:20.200 live and talking about how he was going to see it and then i did a little bit of the rav uh pre-show

00:50:27.040 and i was just looking at the rumble numbers and that was sort of the first indication that i had

00:50:31.980 i was like wait a minute like this this isn't just big this is this is way beyond anything that even

00:50:40.920 we were projecting well yeah to your point here at least officially i will say though that and

00:50:47.400 andrew's not here but he and i had like a phone call that morning and we were like could you

00:50:53.120 imagine if we get to like we were like could you imagine if we get to 10 million wow that'd be

00:50:58.720 crazy and to your point with chris and and again kudos to rumble if it wasn't for rumble we may

00:51:04.120 not be here today for those numbers to exist yeah you see i'm saying like like rumble was the rumble

00:51:10.180 was a huge portion of what made a lot of this possible and it's not just that that one provider

00:51:17.260 there's all these other providers that were out there all of the major mainstream networks uh

00:51:22.720 rumble helped reset everything because they they had they had competition rumble is is massive now

00:51:30.200 and if they don't compete then rumble gets all of that business yep right today so

00:51:37.340 that was even before elon got x that was even before elon came in for x chris totally yeah it

00:51:43.720 was it was all chris it was rumble it was the entire team at rumble so we're very very grateful

00:51:49.040 because Rumble is the unsung hero in most of Americans

00:51:55.660 being able to consume even middle-of-the-road content now

00:51:59.880 because Rumble exists.

00:52:05.680 It's just such a perfect storm.

00:52:07.460 That's the phrase that I keep just rattling through my head.

00:52:10.160 It's just the perfect storm between all the years of pent-up demand.

00:52:15.060 Which, by the way, country music in and of itself,

00:52:17.140 It is the most listened-to genre of music in the country.

00:52:21.940 It is the most purchased genre of music.

00:52:24.600 It gets the most attendance if you go state by state.

00:52:27.640 It is the number one genre in America.

00:52:30.320 And yet for 30 years, there has not been a headliner of country music at the Super Bowl.

00:52:35.240 For 23 years, there has not been a single country artist since Shania Twain.

00:52:39.740 Rock music as well has been completely shunted off for 16 years.

00:52:45.000 I looked up a bunch of this stuff.

00:52:46.640 And it's like, you guys are just cutting off this massive market demographic market, which is, you know, very, very obviously the same demographics of people who watch the NFL.

00:52:59.400 And in many cases are the people who vote for Donald Trump.

00:53:03.180 Well, what's what's so offensive about all that?

00:53:05.560 Like they like exploited Hank Williams Jr. for years with his theme, the Monday Night Football theme song.

00:53:12.800 So every football-themed song that's existed for Sunday Night Football

00:53:16.780 and Monday Night Football has always been country.

00:53:19.100 This is what's so offensive about this entire thing.

00:53:22.080 And again, I'm not even a country guy.

00:53:24.480 I don't think any of us are really.

00:53:27.340 I'm not even a country guy, but I will come to the defense of country.

00:53:30.680 They've exploited for marketing purposes country music

00:53:36.700 and country music listeners for football.

00:53:39.400 and then when it comes to halftime

00:53:41.440 to promote some kind of value

00:53:43.480 system they will never go to country

00:53:45.640 and you have to ask, I mean that's clearly

00:53:47.420 an agenda, right? It's like they're using

00:53:49.680 when they have the

00:53:51.400 eyeballs to try to push

00:53:53.400 a narrative or a specific type of

00:53:55.500 culture to

00:53:56.860 American citizens but then when they need

00:53:59.440 to actually sell something, what do they go to?

00:54:02.960 Hank

00:54:03.480 Williams Jr. and Shania Twain

00:54:05.780 and drag like some

00:54:07.480 drag some boomer artifact out from the 60s like no yeah you know like let's get another who song

00:54:14.200 that we use to market csi episodes uh it was and then hank after hank williams then they uh

00:54:21.960 they i mean it's everybody everyone every when everyone thinks of monday night football you

00:54:25.400 think of hank william williams jr is well did you hear so don't forget they canceled hank williams

00:54:31.240 jr and i would so i was on glenn beck this week and he told me the backstory that hank williams

00:54:37.620 jr was listening to glenn beck that's how he found out he got canceled they didn't even call him

00:54:42.260 like the nfl didn't even reach out to him directly and he was listening to glenn and he had these

00:54:47.980 and this is the story that glenn told me that he had these 10 monday night football guitars like

00:54:54.880 acoustic guitars in his house and he got so mad and so upset at the way that they treated him

00:55:01.380 that he smashed them he was just grabbing them and smashing them and smashing them and smashing

00:55:07.040 them and he finally came to the very last one and he stopped himself and he said I'm not going to

00:55:13.820 smash this I'm going to give it to Glenn Beck and that way at least one of them and he has it in

00:55:19.580 like that museum that glenn has and and i said wait a minute so he he doesn't have any of the

00:55:26.440 he doesn't have a single one in his house anymore not a single one in his possession he's like i'm

00:55:31.260 i'm cutting them out like a cancer this is wild wow but that's the story that's the anger that led

00:55:38.380 to the pent-up demand that's the anger of middle america that's the anger of the average american

00:55:45.180 who just wants to be able to turn on something that isn't disrespecting them for being an American,

00:55:51.760 for liking his country, for caring about Jesus Christ, for saluting the red, white, and blue

00:55:58.320 that there's so many people have been crapped on for years just because, oh, you know, you're some

00:56:05.000 redneck American. And it's like, no, actually, that's like a huge, massive chunk of this country.

00:56:10.900 and you know what that anger i think turned and and god used all of that to turn it into something

00:56:20.420 positive which led to and we haven't really talked about that much yet but the like kid rock sharing

00:56:26.680 the gospel and his own salvation story which is just just crazy when you think of like the kid

00:56:32.300 rock when we first met him to who he is today all right well we have a lot of ideas for next year

00:56:40.520 and I'm sure we'll keep getting a lot

00:56:41.960 I think no topic

00:56:43.320 in the last four months or so

00:56:46.420 has inspired more emails

00:56:48.220 than just the idea of this

00:56:50.080 of the halftime show

00:56:52.000 and over time too we got a huge wave

00:56:54.640 when the idea first came out

00:56:56.280 when it was announced but then just every single

00:56:58.360 day people would come in with new ideas

00:57:00.540 they had a lot of acts they liked

00:57:01.840 and then you know when we had that silent

00:57:04.460 period every day it was like a drum beat

00:57:06.240 what's the information where do we watch it

00:57:08.340 and then another wave and then a ton of people

00:57:10.140 emailed during the show, immediately after

00:57:12.340 it. It is a topic that arouses

00:57:14.200 a lot of passion. People love

00:57:16.320 to go on apps and watch

00:57:18.300 people play music. What can we say?

00:57:20.740 Especially if it likes America and

00:57:22.240 if the alternative is a guy going,

00:57:23.800 Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi!

00:57:26.160 Oi! I got girlfriends!

00:57:28.280 Oi!

00:57:34.700 Is that Bad Bunny?

00:57:37.060 It kind of sounded like

00:57:38.260 Jack doing a Bad Bunny impression.

00:57:39.880 to be honest no that was the english guy oh really okay yeah that was oh wait that that was

00:57:46.040 ruben gallego that's my auntie she asked me a while for some of the girlfriends dude ruben

00:57:51.980 that was ruben gallego did an excellent job at the halftime show ruben gallego was over there like

00:57:57.220 he was he was tweeting all about it the entire time it's like oh man i can't wait to use that

00:58:04.460 It speaks to my culture.

00:58:05.340 Nobody has ever had a barbecue outside the way my culture does.

00:58:11.040 Ruben, you're Mexican.

00:58:12.380 You're not Puerto Rican.

00:58:13.280 Like every day.

00:58:14.780 Somebody tell Ruben he's not Puerto Rican.

00:58:18.740 Okay, what's next?

00:58:20.840 We have to have a hard out now.

00:58:22.260 We've got to bail.

00:58:22.940 Oh, we can't go reloading?

00:58:24.000 No, no.

00:58:24.780 Got to bail.

00:58:26.540 Dang, man.

00:58:27.500 Tragedy has set upon us.

00:58:28.680 You guys got really wired in that.

00:58:30.540 I told you.

00:58:31.300 We had to get to the others.

00:58:32.100 But we'll have to push those next week maybe.

00:58:34.040 we'll see it is i mean i think it legitimately was just look that halftime show the genesis of

00:58:41.640 that was in many ways thought crime because this is where we would talk about halftime shows with

00:58:47.340 charlie this is where we would hash things out this is where you know we really kind of came

00:58:53.280 up with the genesis that led to the show and you look at it number one u.s stream on youtube of

00:59:02.740 all time however number two worldwide wait just real quick before we go did you guys uh did anyone

00:59:08.100 see what was the actual number one worldwide it was some like indian space landing wasn't it

00:59:12.980 yeah so it was when india landed a lunar uh probe on the moon and so so so hold on guys i've got

00:59:22.180 this figured out i've got this figured out so if next year if we want to beat it i already know

00:59:27.580 what the venue is call up elon musk we're gonna do it on the moon and then we're gonna invite

00:59:35.160 modi there so you know whatever portion of the 1.8 billion in the subcontinent are gonna watch

00:59:42.520 tune in this is how we do it this is how we do it that would be amazing i want i want to get

00:59:50.440 elon's dream is to be doing stuff on mars so we got to do mars stuff halftime show on mars

00:59:57.000 the moon is on the way okay is it wait can we play that indian music again we can do it as we

01:00:03.120 do it as we close out we can do it as we close out no no we got to close out on vip we got to

01:00:09.360 close out on vip good to see you all modi on mars oh my gosh that could be a great i could keep going
