Rebel News Podcast - SHEILA GUNN REID ｜ Freethinkers are needed on the entertainment battlefield in the culture wa

00:00:00.000 Brad Skistimis of Five Times August joins us tonight to discuss his new album Silent War

00:00:06.000 and what else is new in the culture wars. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed and you're watching The Gunn Show.

00:00:10.580 Are you fed up with constantly searching for the records you want?

00:00:32.880 Yes, here's a unique opportunity to own a complete library of the world's most beautiful music.

00:00:38.820 One, two, three.

00:01:08.820 I will stand here in the way. And I will not give up on you. I will shield you from the pain.

00:01:22.160 Oh God, oh God, help us all. Oh God, help us all.

00:01:32.420 All my heavy times, everybody's angry living lies.

00:01:36.440 And you broke, joke, woke, woke, think you're gonna save the day.

00:01:40.000 You've gone out of your damn mind, kids. Nobody cares about what you say.

00:01:45.200 You ain't no leader and you ain't the boss. You wander around like you're fucking lost.

00:01:51.040 So check your watch, turn your back, set us up for the big attack.

00:01:55.980 Cause hey Joe, we did it. 81 million votes.

00:02:01.680 Shame, blame, no matter what they say, don't let the bastard get to you.

00:02:09.420 So take back your freedom and fight for your life. Stand up before it's all gone.

00:02:20.440 Take back your freedom and fight for your life. Stand up before it's all gone.

00:02:34.000 What you just saw there is the trailer for the new album by Five Times August, otherwise known as Brad Skistimus.

00:02:46.720 He's an independent musician who has really taken a stand, especially during the pandemic,

00:02:52.500 in the interest of free thought and free expression.

00:02:56.640 And the beauty is he's an independent musician.

00:02:59.580 So he's really not beholden to anybody.

00:03:01.480 And he has taken some, I guess, what would be considered controversial in pop culture stances

00:03:12.980 on issues of COVID and vaccination and Justin Trudeau's war on peaceful protesters.

00:03:19.680 But really they are mainstream viewpoints that Hollywood and the music industry don't think normal people should hold.

00:03:28.880 For example, Brad's video for his single, This Justin, was incredible.

00:03:35.760 Take a look at this.

00:03:36.440 This Justin, another liar on the news Standing at the pulpit ready to abuse

00:03:52.660 This Justin, another coward in control Scared by the sound so he hides in a hole

00:04:00.560 He'll call on the guards to trample the crowd Cause the louder they get, they silence his power

00:04:08.760 Shame, blame, no matter what they say Don't let the bastard get to you

00:04:17.600 He's gonna try to shut us down But we'll stand our ground

00:04:22.560 This Justin, another villain on the screen Acting like a hero for all the drama queens

00:04:40.600 This Justin, another black painted face Lathered in his virtue, enslaving every race 1.00

00:04:48.600 He'll send out the troops He'll send out the troops and freeze

00:04:51.600 The account says the freedom you get Is what he makes allowed

00:04:56.800 Shame, blame, no matter what they say Don't let the bastard get to you

00:05:05.760 He's gonna try to shut us down But we'll stand our ground

00:05:10.600 This Justin, another one day This Justin, he'll lose

00:05:17.600 If you look in his eyes You can see he's afraid

00:05:24.600 So fragile inside While the town's on parade

00:05:28.600 Shame, blame, no matter what they say Don't let the bastard get to you

00:05:37.600 He's gonna try to shut us down But we'll stand our ground

00:05:42.600 Hey, this Justin, he'll lose

00:05:45.600 No, he'll never shut us down Cause we'll stand our ground

00:05:50.600 Hey, this Justin, you lose

00:05:53.600 So joining me now to discuss his new album Silent War and the war on the minds of our children through pop culture brainwashing is Brad Schistamus or Five Times August

00:06:14.600 So joining me now is Brad Schistamus from Five Times August

00:06:25.600 Brad, thanks so much for coming on the show

00:06:27.600 I wanted to have you on the show

00:06:28.600 Well, first of all, because you have new music out

00:06:31.600 And because you are one of the few people in, I think, music

00:06:37.600 There are more now than ever before

00:06:40.600 Who are outspoken about the flaws of the pop culture world

00:06:45.600 It seems to be only acceptable to have an homogenous viewpoint on social issues, on cultural issues

00:06:54.600 And so when there are people like you who sort of pop up and say, hey, wait, there might be a different way here

00:07:01.600 You sort of become this, not only a beacon for hope for people like me, but also a lightning rod for criticism

00:07:08.600 Because the arrows are all around you and they're sort of firing in at you

00:07:12.600 So I guess before I start the interview and we'll talk about your new music

00:07:16.600 And oh, I want to talk to you about Kanye a little bit

00:07:19.600 I guess what was the turning point for you?

00:07:23.600 What was the thing that you were like, no, I got to speak out and I have to do it right now and whatever it costs

00:07:31.600 It's towards the end of 2020 really, it was, you know, everybody had gone through that year

00:07:36.600 And it was like everybody sort of started out going like what at the beginning of the year

00:07:41.600 And then at the end of the year, for me personally, I was like, come on, you know, it's like, it's time to move on

00:07:48.600 And I was, you know, looking around wondering where everybody was, you know, is nobody going to speak up about this stuff?

00:07:54.820 And, you know, thinking about my kids and everything, the future that they had in front of them

00:08:00.240 If, you know, I say this a lot, but I didn't want them to look back on this time wondering what daddy did, you know

00:08:07.420 Or, you know, did you do anything for our future?

00:08:10.260 And I had this platform, I found myself in a unique position to speak up

00:08:16.960 I don't have any chains to anybody, you know, I'm an independent artist

00:08:21.080 I've always been independent

00:08:22.420 So, you know, I just started sort of speaking out of a way to vent for myself

00:08:28.960 But then once I realized I was, I had, you know, I wasn't alone

00:08:33.900 That really inspired me to start speaking up to let other people know they're not alone

00:08:40.480 You know, it's so interesting because we know as parents, pop culture has such an influence on the culture

00:08:48.900 But then culture skeptics say, and I'm guilty of this, I don't want any part of this

00:08:54.280 It's gross, you know, it's the primordial goo of evil

00:08:58.900 I'm just going to stand over here and I won't get involved

00:09:01.060 And so I really admire people who say, you know what, that's a battleground we should not walk off from

00:09:06.680 And I think, I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I think that's what you're doing

00:09:10.340 When people like me are like, no, I don't want any part of this

00:09:13.240 I'm just going to stand over here and listen to 70s country music

00:09:16.280 Yeah, well, you know, I grew up just sort of engulfed in pop culture

00:09:24.440 I'm an 80s, 90s kid and everything that I loved growing up has been demolished or rebooted in some weird woke way

00:09:33.360 That doesn't make sense, it's not about, you know, what it used to be about or what it used to represent

00:09:38.580 So everything has sort of been falling apart

00:09:41.240 That, you know, we used to love as kids

00:09:44.440 And it's being twisted and manipulated for a new generation in a weird way

00:09:49.540 And all the new stuff is too

00:09:51.920 I mean, there's just this underlying

00:09:54.100 Evil tone too

00:09:56.980 That seems, you know, just unnecessary

00:09:59.820 So, and it's so loud

00:10:03.420 And so in our face all the time

00:10:06.140 You can't even let your kids watch anything online

00:10:09.900 Because all of the ads

00:10:12.200 Every ad has something, you know, an agenda behind it

00:10:15.680 So you have to be really cautious of it

00:10:18.060 But, you know, at this point, it's like

00:10:20.400 I'm just calling everything out that I see

00:10:23.640 Because I'm tired of it

00:10:25.060 Like, there's just too much of it

00:10:27.180 That's like, we have to stop

00:10:28.520 The irony of this whole intolerant time

00:10:32.540 Is that we have been so tolerant up to now

00:10:36.440 That's why we're in this position now

00:10:38.420 Is that our tolerance of everything that was unique and different and special

00:10:43.420 And whatever it was

00:10:45.140 Sometimes we turned a blind eye to maybe, you know

00:10:48.960 Something that was in pop culture that, you know

00:10:51.840 Seemed a little off at the time

00:10:53.300 And now it seems like

00:10:54.600 Oh, that was really actually an evil little message there

00:10:57.860 Or something like that

00:10:58.660 But I'm very just, like, aware of it now

00:11:01.420 And I'm exhausted of it

00:11:02.620 So, you know, I take to Twitter a lot

00:11:04.720 And just rant about whatever I see

00:11:06.900 But we have to, you know

00:11:08.960 At this point, the line in the sand has been drawn

00:11:11.620 And it's like, you can either keep going down this road

00:11:15.720 And this path

00:11:16.540 And it's going to get weirder and uglier

00:11:18.580 And we're on a slippery slope

00:11:20.540 Or we can start calling it out now

00:11:22.820 And, you know, bring awareness of it

00:11:26.400 To others that may not be awake yet or something

00:11:29.140 But we have to start walking away from it too

00:11:31.760 And building our own sort of pop culture

00:11:33.940 Our new pop culture, you know

00:11:36.200 Yeah, that's a very interesting point

00:11:39.280 I want to come back to that

00:11:40.380 But, you know, one of the things

00:11:42.520 That you're very vocal about on your Twitter account

00:11:45.500 Is, you know, this drag queen performances for kids

00:11:49.300 And I think it is the perfect confluence

00:11:52.900 The intersection, to use the language of the left

00:11:55.500 Of the postmodern war on beauty

00:11:59.040 And this leftist, cultural Marxist war

00:12:05.440 On the minds of our children

00:12:07.200 And it is just manifesting

00:12:10.340 At the local library for some reason

00:12:13.440 So even places where, you know

00:12:16.000 You used to send your kids to the library

00:12:18.460 When you didn't want them to watch so much TV

00:12:21.360 And so I guess the evil forces of the universe

00:12:24.520 Were like, oh, down there

00:12:26.600 That's where the parents who send their kids 0.89

00:12:28.900 The parents who worry about

00:12:30.900 What's infesting their kids' minds

00:12:32.440 Send their kids 0.54

00:12:33.240 Let's go get those parents down there too

00:12:35.440 And, you know, it's atrocious

00:12:37.500 But again, you mentioned the slippery slope

00:12:40.100 This is it

00:12:41.860 Like, we're hurtling towards the bottom

00:12:43.960 And the snowball is enormous

00:12:45.820 And the snowball is drag queen story hour 0.97

00:12:48.040 Yeah

00:12:49.540 Yeah, it's just insanity

00:12:52.380 As you were talking there

00:12:53.680 I was actually thinking about

00:12:55.040 How controlled information is online

00:12:57.940 And, you know, our only escape now

00:13:01.480 From the information that we receive online

00:13:03.900 Is to go back and find those

00:13:05.720 You know, that physical information

00:13:08.020 We used to have books and records

00:13:09.860 And, you know, DVDs

00:13:12.800 Whatever it may be

00:13:13.820 And so to have that one outlet, right?

00:13:18.040 If you go to a library for information

00:13:20.500 And it's all hard copy information

00:13:23.040 And this is sort of just a twist

00:13:26.120 On what you're saying

00:13:27.080 But I was thinking, like

00:13:28.100 It's weird that we can't even go there now

00:13:30.220 Because, you know, that information

00:13:33.380 That agenda has seeped its way in

00:13:35.540 To where it's not even about

00:13:36.980 Going to escape in a world of knowledge now

00:13:40.060 Those libraries have become a parade

00:13:43.080 And a circus for this weird agenda 0.94

00:13:45.420 So it's just another battle with our kids

00:13:48.600 But, you know, more so

00:13:50.620 It's like, what are the parents thinking?

00:13:52.960 Why are they bringing their kids

00:13:54.340 What parent in their right mind is like

00:13:56.160 You know what?

00:13:57.280 That's a

00:13:57.740 Let's go

00:13:58.760 Let's take you to that

00:13:59.840 Because I had an experience recently

00:14:01.920 I took my kids

00:14:02.920 Now, I don't take my kids

00:14:04.560 To Drag Queen Story Hour 0.95

00:14:05.700 I took my kids to a symphony recently

00:14:09.200 And my eight-year-old son is into piano

00:14:12.420 Like, he loves piano

00:14:14.620 And he looked at the piano player

00:14:16.700 And he leaned into me

00:14:17.840 And he goes

00:14:18.380 Hey, that could be me someday

00:14:20.700 And I couldn't help but think about

00:14:23.600 These kids that are being exposed

00:14:25.820 To what they're seeing

00:14:28.340 At these Drag Queen Story Hours 0.99

00:14:30.800 Where these people come out

00:14:33.600 And, you know, they're mocking women

00:14:37.300 First of all

00:14:38.100 And it's like a cartoonist impersonation

00:14:41.540 Of what a woman is supposed to be 1.00

00:14:43.040 And then they're spreading their legs 1.00

00:14:44.280 They're dancing to these nasty songs 1.00

00:14:45.980 How many kids are looking at them?

00:14:47.860 My point is

00:14:48.460 How many kids are looking at them

00:14:49.780 Going, oh, that could be me someday

00:14:51.160 And every bit of information

00:14:53.260 You're putting in front of these children

00:14:54.880 They're thinking that

00:14:56.520 Could that be me someday?

00:14:58.420 What do I like about this?

00:15:00.100 What do I want to take away from this?

00:15:01.740 It might not be a drag queen 1.00

00:15:03.000 But it might be dancing for money 0.87

00:15:04.660 You know

00:15:05.460 There's many different layers to it

00:15:08.700 And so it's shocking that

00:15:11.320 You know, there's so many parents out there

00:15:13.560 That are willing to even show up to these things

00:15:15.600 And encourage their babies

00:15:18.700 To hand money to these people

00:15:21.080 And it just keeps perpetuating itself

00:15:23.960 And it's part of that slippery slope

00:15:25.880 That's just going to keep getting weirder

00:15:27.520 Because it won't be good enough, right?

00:15:29.780 What do we do every time?

00:15:31.340 We push the boundaries every time

00:15:34.400 So now we're slammed up against the wall right now

00:15:37.300 With drag queen story hour for children

00:15:39.260 What comes after that, right?

00:15:41.560 How do they push it after that?

00:15:43.500 It's going to be, you know

00:15:45.100 Furry time for whatever

00:15:46.940 Like the people that dress up in leather dog outfits 0.89

00:15:50.200 And it's going to keep finding its way

00:15:52.940 Further and further down the way

00:15:54.560 And so that's what I'm saying

00:15:56.400 We have to stop

00:15:57.260 To sort of say, hey

00:15:58.740 This might be a little too much in society

00:16:01.000 You know

00:16:01.680 Be you

00:16:03.400 But maybe you don't have to shove that

00:16:06.600 In front of other people's kids

00:16:07.700 Yeah

00:16:08.820 You know, you see these kids

00:16:10.980 Giving the money at the drag queen story hour

00:16:13.720 And they always have this look

00:16:15.040 That they give their parents

00:16:16.200 Like they're seeking approval

00:16:18.140 From their parents

00:16:20.040 And, you know, you think about it

00:16:21.440 You think about how many people

00:16:23.320 Go into the family business

00:16:25.000 Maybe they're a carpenter

00:16:26.400 Maybe they're a musician like your kids

00:16:28.360 And, you know, a lot of that is

00:16:31.480 Because they learn to love the business

00:16:33.520 But they're also seeking the approval

00:16:35.880 Of their parents

00:16:37.740 Right

00:16:38.480 And I see a lot of that

00:16:40.360 With these little people

00:16:41.600 Going to drag queen story hours

00:16:43.360 The same as when my kid scores a try playing rugby

00:16:46.320 She turns around to make sure I'm watching

00:16:48.060 Right

00:16:48.860 But we're not doing that with kids anymore

00:16:50.840 We're taking them to drag queen story hour 1.00

00:16:52.620 And saying, here, stick this in this

00:16:54.840 Man's G string

00:16:56.740 For approval

00:16:57.960 Yeah

00:16:59.020 And it's uncomfortable to even say that

00:17:01.620 Like, as you're saying it to me

00:17:03.020 I'm like

00:17:03.500 Why is that even a sentence in these times?

00:17:07.400 But yeah, you're right

00:17:08.500 There's always that look of like

00:17:09.960 Is this what I'm supposed to do?

00:17:12.540 And the parents giving the okay

00:17:14.720 Yeah

00:17:15.160 When you see people doing this

00:17:17.060 You give them money

00:17:17.940 And look

00:17:19.120 That, you know

00:17:19.700 What is the message there?

00:17:21.140 This could be you

00:17:22.040 You could do this

00:17:22.880 This is your future

00:17:23.780 I don't know what that is

00:17:25.500 Is the message

00:17:26.620 You know, it's sort of

00:17:27.800 They guise it

00:17:29.120 They disguise it under tolerance

00:17:32.100 And acceptance and stuff

00:17:33.440 And that's one thing

00:17:35.140 That's okay

00:17:36.020 That's who you are

00:17:36.920 Okay, great

00:17:37.560 But they bring it out

00:17:39.500 And present it

00:17:41.360 In a ritualistic way

00:17:44.620 Yeah

00:17:44.980 That

00:17:45.620 And it's indoctrinating

00:17:47.920 You know

00:17:48.360 It's not tolerance at that point

00:17:50.920 It's indoctrinating

00:17:52.180 And it is grooming

00:17:53.320 And it is those words

00:17:54.460 That we're using right now

00:17:55.680 And it's sad

00:17:58.180 That that's how we're choosing

00:17:59.420 To influence our kids

00:18:01.280 It's weird

00:18:03.500 We've gotten to a place where

00:18:04.880 You know

00:18:06.100 Kids used to watch Sesame Street

00:18:07.460 When they were that age

00:18:08.440 And now they're in a bar

00:18:10.080 With grown-ups

00:18:11.980 Watching cross-dressers 1.00

00:18:13.980 It just boggles the mind

00:18:15.700 But I think as a parent

00:18:17.720 A lot of this is because

00:18:19.000 Maybe people from the left

00:18:20.900 Have kids for different reasons

00:18:23.120 Than I had kids

00:18:24.200 I have kids to perpetuate

00:18:25.900 My value system

00:18:26.820 Because I think

00:18:27.460 My value system

00:18:28.520 Is probably the most

00:18:29.420 Productive value system

00:18:30.860 Where I think people are happier

00:18:32.520 But I also want to

00:18:35.800 Perpetrate the species

00:18:37.020 I want to raise

00:18:38.040 Contributing

00:18:39.120 Happy

00:18:40.000 Healthy

00:18:41.200 Emotionally stable

00:18:43.260 Members of society

00:18:44.460 And I see some people

00:18:46.080 On the left

00:18:46.720 Seeing their kids

00:18:48.240 As an accessory

00:18:50.140 To their own

00:18:51.020 Social justice causes

00:18:52.460 If people on the left

00:18:54.280 Haven't self-sterilized

00:18:55.960 For climate change reasons

00:18:58.780 You see them

00:19:00.140 Raising their kids

00:19:01.400 As genderless

00:19:02.460 I'm going to

00:19:02.980 Dress them genderless 1.00

00:19:04.480 They're going to have

00:19:05.640 No gender 1.00

00:19:06.280 They're going to have

00:19:06.780 A genderless name 0.98

00:19:07.600 And I say this

00:19:08.220 With a kid named Riley

00:19:09.540 Who's a girl 0.99

00:19:10.520 That's because I was lazy

00:19:12.340 I just didn't want to

00:19:13.100 Pick two names

00:19:14.100 I didn't have

00:19:14.740 A political agenda there

00:19:15.920 But you know

00:19:16.700 Like you see people

00:19:17.660 Who are raising

00:19:18.940 Their kids

00:19:19.620 As just an arm

00:19:21.180 Of their social justice

00:19:22.600 Causes

00:19:23.140 Instead of

00:19:24.000 This thing

00:19:24.820 That you do

00:19:25.660 As a greater good

00:19:27.780 For the culture

00:19:28.500 But also

00:19:29.280 For your family

00:19:30.220 Right

00:19:31.540 Yeah

00:19:32.400 Like to me

00:19:33.660 The goal of

00:19:34.460 Raising children

00:19:35.540 Is that you're

00:19:36.260 Supposed to be

00:19:36.820 Raising the next

00:19:37.980 Crop of society

00:19:40.160 And it's supposed

00:19:41.060 To be better

00:19:42.340 More well-rounded

00:19:43.560 You know

00:19:45.620 More in tune

00:19:46.980 With

00:19:47.640 Goodness

00:19:49.340 And if you compare

00:19:51.740 The two sides

00:19:53.460 How you know

00:19:54.240 One side's raising

00:19:55.440 Their kids

00:19:55.780 One side's raising

00:19:56.480 The other kids

00:19:56.940 Like if you look at

00:19:58.400 Look at TikTok

00:19:59.800 For crying out loud

00:20:00.980 Like those kids

00:20:01.860 Aren't happy

00:20:02.540 They're confused

00:20:03.620 They don't know

00:20:05.040 Who they are

00:20:05.640 Sorry to interrupt you

00:20:06.920 I look at those kids

00:20:07.780 On TikTok

00:20:08.300 And I say

00:20:08.920 Those are future suicides

00:20:10.440 Like it deeply

00:20:11.620 Troubles me

00:20:12.320 I can't even

00:20:12.860 Go on TikTok

00:20:13.780 I

00:20:14.780 Now that you're

00:20:15.920 Talking again

00:20:16.440 I hate to interrupt you

00:20:17.600 I see as

00:20:19.020 One side of this equation

00:20:20.520 Raises children

00:20:21.740 As their role

00:20:23.300 In creating the future

00:20:25.760 It's a selfless act

00:20:27.840 And the other side

00:20:29.240 Sees children 1.00

00:20:30.220 As a way to

00:20:31.360 Indulge their own 1.00

00:20:32.420 Selfish vices

00:20:33.320 Yeah

00:20:34.560 Yeah

00:20:35.320 And it seems like

00:20:36.160 And that mindset

00:20:37.260 Is about right now

00:20:39.140 Because those parents

00:20:40.720 You know

00:20:42.000 That's an act

00:20:43.060 For their

00:20:43.860 To justify

00:20:45.220 Their own existence

00:20:46.200 Right

00:20:46.760 If I raise

00:20:47.620 Right

00:20:48.600 If I raise this person

00:20:50.160 And

00:20:50.720 And

00:20:51.780 Infiltrate my

00:20:53.220 Every

00:20:53.480 Of course

00:20:53.960 Every parent

00:20:54.580 Has their

00:20:55.080 Their own sort of

00:20:56.120 Agenda for their kids

00:20:57.520 But

00:20:58.540 You know

00:21:00.160 There's an agenda

00:21:01.080 Where

00:21:01.420 Like you said

00:21:02.220 You're trying to raise

00:21:03.280 A better

00:21:04.040 A better quality

00:21:05.380 Person

00:21:06.000 Than you

00:21:06.940 Even are

00:21:07.560 Yeah

00:21:07.920 And

00:21:08.600 Then there's

00:21:09.500 The other parent

00:21:10.640 That's trying to raise

00:21:11.720 A human

00:21:12.760 To justify

00:21:13.900 Everything that

00:21:14.880 That parent

00:21:15.400 Has ever done

00:21:16.020 In their life

00:21:16.480 Or who they are

00:21:17.180 They need the acceptance

00:21:18.120 That's why you see

00:21:18.900 So many of them

00:21:19.680 Going after kids

00:21:21.200 Because a kid

00:21:21.880 Is a sponge

00:21:22.600 And they'll just

00:21:23.320 Listen to you

00:21:24.080 And they'll say

00:21:24.860 That's great

00:21:25.600 I'm

00:21:26.260 You know

00:21:26.680 You be

00:21:27.220 Who you are

00:21:27.960 Those people

00:21:28.520 Are so

00:21:29.120 They're missing

00:21:31.440 Something on the inside

00:21:32.680 That they have to

00:21:33.480 Seek validation

00:21:34.460 From a child

00:21:35.900 When

00:21:36.560 You know

00:21:37.600 We're supposed to be

00:21:38.560 You know

00:21:40.280 It's supposed to be

00:21:41.120 Sort of

00:21:41.500 The reverse of that

00:21:42.600 We're supposed to be

00:21:43.400 You know

00:21:43.980 Validating the world

00:21:45.540 For the child

00:21:46.680 In a way

00:21:47.220 Of saying like

00:21:47.820 Look here's a great

00:21:48.720 Big world for you

00:21:50.080 That sets you up

00:21:51.740 So you can do

00:21:53.420 Great things

00:21:54.360 In this world

00:21:55.120 And

00:21:55.580 And create

00:21:56.180 Another group

00:21:56.880 Of human beings

00:21:57.500 That are even

00:21:58.020 Better than this

00:21:58.900 Group of human beings

00:21:59.720 And it's supposed

00:22:00.440 To stair step

00:22:01.240 Its way up

00:22:02.060 And we're watching

00:22:03.000 The free fall

00:22:03.860 Of society

00:22:04.520 Go down

00:22:05.200 So it's a crazy

00:22:06.740 Battle

00:22:07.240 Now you touched on

00:22:09.860 And this is something

00:22:10.740 That I think

00:22:11.160 The Daily Wire

00:22:11.800 Seems to be doing

00:22:12.580 Quite well

00:22:13.140 They are creating

00:22:14.380 This alternative

00:22:15.600 Ecosystem

00:22:16.580 Of pop culture

00:22:17.940 For people

00:22:20.280 Like me

00:22:21.000 Who say

00:22:21.400 I don't want

00:22:21.940 Any part of

00:22:22.660 Whatever you people

00:22:23.820 Are doing

00:22:24.260 No thanks

00:22:24.960 But they

00:22:25.960 You know

00:22:26.260 They're creating

00:22:27.140 Programming

00:22:27.740 For kids

00:22:28.300 And movies

00:22:28.940 And you're

00:22:30.060 Doing the music

00:22:30.680 Side

00:22:31.180 Is that the way

00:22:34.640 Or is just

00:22:35.380 Checking out

00:22:35.900 Like I did

00:22:36.380 The way

00:22:36.800 I mean

00:22:40.380 I have to say

00:22:41.120 It's the way

00:22:41.500 Well we're so

00:22:42.260 Influenced

00:22:42.800 By our

00:22:43.360 By the

00:22:44.260 The media

00:22:44.860 That we absorb

00:22:45.720 I mean

00:22:46.220 Music

00:22:46.880 Is a universal

00:22:48.600 Language

00:22:49.120 I can't tell you

00:22:50.200 The response

00:22:51.620 I've gotten

00:22:52.040 From all around

00:22:52.880 The world

00:22:53.240 On the music

00:22:53.760 That I've released

00:22:54.500 You know

00:22:55.280 Over the last

00:22:57.440 Year and a half

00:22:58.000 But like

00:22:58.520 It's been incredible

00:22:59.840 And it reaches

00:23:00.600 People to the

00:23:01.540 You know

00:23:02.000 Whole other side

00:23:02.860 And that's the

00:23:05.300 Same for

00:23:05.920 Movies

00:23:07.720 And comedy

00:23:08.560 And I don't

00:23:10.100 Think it's so much

00:23:10.840 That we're trying

00:23:11.540 To replace

00:23:13.460 Anything

00:23:14.140 It's just that

00:23:15.560 The old way 0.99

00:23:16.260 Of doing things

00:23:17.000 Has just been

00:23:18.100 Beaten down

00:23:19.000 And they won't

00:23:19.920 Stop doing

00:23:21.060 What they're doing

00:23:21.920 And you know

00:23:24.040 To the

00:23:25.280 Comedians that

00:23:26.020 Are that are

00:23:26.680 On this side

00:23:27.280 Of the aisle

00:23:27.700 They're doing

00:23:28.540 What the great

00:23:29.260 Comedians always 0.99

00:23:30.240 Did as a

00:23:31.440 Musician I'm

00:23:32.260 Doing what

00:23:32.820 I'm trying to

00:23:33.600 Do what the

00:23:34.120 Great musicians

00:23:34.820 Always did

00:23:35.840 You know the

00:23:36.340 Great songwriters

00:23:37.340 Was they spoke

00:23:38.180 Up when it

00:23:38.660 Was time to

00:23:39.200 Speak up

00:23:39.800 Whether you

00:23:41.000 Agreed with it

00:23:41.680 Or not

00:23:42.100 But nobody

00:23:42.920 You know

00:23:43.600 Very few

00:23:44.680 Really spoke

00:23:45.560 Up and the

00:23:46.620 Same with

00:23:47.020 Movies too

00:23:47.720 You're going

00:23:48.080 To see more

00:23:48.900 And more

00:23:49.220 Movies being

00:23:50.220 Made that

00:23:51.420 Aren't really

00:23:52.240 Battling against

00:23:54.420 Woke culture

00:23:55.840 Or anything

00:23:56.500 Like that

00:23:57.260 They're just

00:23:58.280 Making what

00:24:00.140 We want

00:24:01.380 What people

00:24:02.580 Want to see

00:24:03.580 That's the

00:24:04.440 Difference is

00:24:05.200 Pop culture

00:24:06.460 Isn't making

00:24:07.200 Things that

00:24:07.780 People want

00:24:08.720 They're just

00:24:09.820 Making things

00:24:10.900 To serve an

00:24:11.560 Agenda and

00:24:12.260 That's why

00:24:12.740 It's crumbling

00:24:13.360 And then if

00:24:14.480 It doesn't work

00:24:15.100 Out then they 0.72

00:24:15.620 Blame everybody

00:24:16.520 You know

00:24:17.000 It's the

00:24:18.320 Culture's fault

00:24:19.700 For not

00:24:20.640 Wanting it

00:24:21.340 Oh well

00:24:21.740 That movie

00:24:22.160 Had a bad

00:24:22.680 Opening

00:24:23.040 Well it's

00:24:23.620 It's because

00:24:24.460 Of racism

00:24:25.120 You know

00:24:25.860 Or whatever

00:24:26.380 It is

00:24:26.780 Right

00:24:27.000 So it's

00:24:29.780 It's weird

00:24:30.140 That they

00:24:30.420 Won't wake

00:24:30.860 Up to that

00:24:31.380 But to

00:24:31.940 Me it's

00:24:32.580 Like well

00:24:33.020 I'm just

00:24:33.340 Doing with

00:24:33.780 All my

00:24:34.260 Former heroes

00:24:35.760 You know

00:24:36.680 What I

00:24:36.980 Thought they

00:24:37.300 Were all

00:24:37.640 Sort of

00:24:38.080 Supposed to

00:24:38.560 Be about

00:24:39.080 And it's

00:24:41.140 Not that

00:24:41.460 I'm really

00:24:41.820 Fighting against

00:24:42.900 Or purposely

00:24:43.980 Going like

00:24:44.560 I'm gonna

00:24:44.980 Fight against

00:24:46.020 That culture

00:24:46.800 It's like

00:24:47.300 This is

00:24:47.780 This is

00:24:48.540 Right to

00:24:49.000 Me

00:24:49.200 This is

00:24:49.600 What's

00:24:49.940 Worth

00:24:50.140 Fighting for

00:24:50.760 So I'm

00:24:51.180 Gonna put

00:24:51.520 It into

00:24:52.440 My music

00:24:53.060 You know

00:24:54.200 I think

00:24:54.500 Even just

00:24:54.900 From a

00:24:55.680 Purely

00:24:56.700 Capitalistic

00:24:57.640 Viewpoint

00:24:58.920 Wouldn't you

00:25:00.560 Want to make

00:25:01.220 Content that

00:25:02.940 Somebody will

00:25:04.000 Consume

00:25:04.600 You know

00:25:05.920 Like in

00:25:06.600 Canada here

00:25:07.160 We have our

00:25:07.680 Mainstream media

00:25:08.620 Is subsidized

00:25:09.540 By the government

00:25:10.240 And nobody

00:25:11.340 Watches it

00:25:11.960 But there's

00:25:12.320 Never that

00:25:12.680 Market correction

00:25:13.720 That is

00:25:16.220 Required for

00:25:16.900 Them to

00:25:17.220 Fix whatever

00:25:17.740 The heck

00:25:18.080 They're doing

00:25:18.480 Over there

00:25:18.980 Because they

00:25:19.740 Always have

00:25:20.240 This constant

00:25:21.160 Shuffle of 0.63

00:25:22.560 Money towards

00:25:23.160 Them and I

00:25:23.480 Sort of see

00:25:23.900 That in

00:25:25.540 The censorship

00:25:26.540 Homogeneity 0.97

00:25:27.680 Enforcement that

00:25:28.560 You see in

00:25:29.340 The pop culture

00:25:30.140 In the United

00:25:30.800 States in

00:25:32.000 That you

00:25:34.000 Know if

00:25:34.320 Somebody doesn't

00:25:35.020 Like your

00:25:35.440 Stuff it's

00:25:37.680 Not a flaw

00:25:38.140 With your

00:25:38.480 Stuff it's

00:25:39.020 The flaw

00:25:39.280 With the

00:25:39.600 Person we'll

00:25:40.220 Point over

00:25:40.700 There and

00:25:41.860 Everybody

00:25:42.180 I'll just

00:25:42.540 Call everybody

00:25:43.060 Who didn't

00:25:43.420 Watch it

00:25:43.840 A racist

00:25:44.300 It's just

00:25:46.640 It's so

00:25:47.340 Interesting to

00:25:48.060 See again

00:25:48.940 As a purely

00:25:49.600 Capitalistic

00:25:50.380 Viewpoint you

00:25:51.820 Don't have to

00:25:52.400 Make content

00:25:53.160 For everybody

00:25:54.020 But you

00:25:54.800 Might want to

00:25:55.340 Try to make

00:25:55.820 It for

00:25:56.080 Somebody and

00:25:57.660 Not alienate

00:25:58.780 Half the

00:25:59.740 People who

00:26:00.240 Are interested

00:26:00.880 In spending

00:26:01.420 Some money

00:26:01.800 At the

00:26:02.040 Movies

00:26:02.420 Today

00:26:02.720 Yeah you

00:26:04.300 Would think

00:26:04.740 That they

00:26:05.060 Would perk

00:26:05.480 Their head

00:26:05.860 Up and

00:26:06.160 Go you

00:26:07.180 Know the

00:26:07.500 Last 10

00:26:08.140 Movies

00:26:08.640 Really didn't

00:26:09.180 Do that

00:26:09.660 Well at

00:26:10.100 The box

00:26:10.600 Office maybe

00:26:11.260 We should

00:26:11.640 Change our

00:26:12.440 Approach

00:26:13.000 To what

00:26:13.820 We're

00:26:14.020 Making

00:26:14.320 You know

00:26:15.580 You're

00:26:15.800 Seeing that

00:26:16.140 A lot

00:26:16.360 With Disney

00:26:16.980 Right now

00:26:17.500 Like every

00:26:18.060 Move they

00:26:18.580 Do is a

00:26:19.120 Double down

00:26:19.780 On what

00:26:20.340 You know

00:26:20.700 Their what

00:26:21.220 Their agenda

00:26:21.820 Is and

00:26:22.620 More and

00:26:23.560 More people

00:26:24.020 Are dropping

00:26:24.620 Off I mean

00:26:25.420 Speak of

00:26:26.200 You speak

00:26:27.020 Pop culture

00:26:27.840 And that's

00:26:28.860 Like at

00:26:29.740 The forefront

00:26:30.360 Disney you

00:26:31.300 Know they've

00:26:31.740 Got their

00:26:32.080 Own whole

00:26:32.620 Disney

00:26:33.080 Culture and

00:26:34.220 I honestly

00:26:34.920 Like I grew

00:26:35.520 Up loving

00:26:36.020 Disney I

00:26:36.560 Went to

00:26:36.860 Those parks

00:26:37.520 With my

00:26:37.900 Family I

00:26:38.460 Took my

00:26:38.880 Kids and

00:26:40.280 And I

00:26:40.820 Was very

00:26:41.280 Influenced

00:26:41.860 By a lot

00:26:42.440 Of those

00:26:42.760 Movies

00:26:43.260 And at

00:26:44.840 This point

00:26:45.260 I couldn't

00:26:45.740 Care less

00:26:46.520 What happens

00:26:47.200 To that

00:26:47.580 Company

00:26:47.960 Because they

00:26:49.240 Keep pushing

00:26:50.180 Me in a

00:26:51.220 Direction that

00:26:52.140 Is like I

00:26:53.120 Don't you know

00:26:53.780 I don't want

00:26:54.420 What you're

00:26:54.780 Making anymore

00:26:55.520 And you

00:26:55.980 Keep making

00:26:56.560 It so

00:26:57.080 That's that

00:26:58.720 You know and

00:26:59.240 I think a lot

00:26:59.760 Of families

00:27:00.340 Are waking

00:27:00.740 Up to that

00:27:01.300 A lot of

00:27:01.720 Them are

00:27:01.960 Leaving behind

00:27:02.640 You know such

00:27:03.320 A cherished

00:27:04.120 Family brand

00:27:05.000 But you're

00:27:05.440 Seeing that

00:27:06.100 Not just

00:27:07.080 With Disney

00:27:07.840 But a lot

00:27:08.540 Of family

00:27:09.220 Brands

00:27:09.900 Sesame Street

00:27:10.800 And PBS

00:27:11.460 And everything

00:27:12.780 It's interesting

00:27:14.660 Because you

00:27:15.980 Know you see

00:27:16.440 The success

00:27:16.880 Of like

00:27:17.420 Top Gun

00:27:18.480 And they

00:27:20.340 Can't figure

00:27:20.820 It out and

00:27:21.180 I'm like because

00:27:21.660 It's normal

00:27:22.340 It's a normal

00:27:23.680 Movie like

00:27:24.320 How movies

00:27:24.820 Used to be

00:27:25.360 Without all

00:27:25.880 Your nonsense

00:27:27.040 Sort of

00:27:27.620 Percolating in

00:27:28.220 The background

00:27:28.540 It was just

00:27:28.900 A movie

00:27:29.480 Where people

00:27:31.040 Who are

00:27:32.940 Want to go

00:27:33.980 To decompress

00:27:35.040 From the

00:27:35.580 Pressures of

00:27:36.100 The world

00:27:36.540 Where you

00:27:37.160 Haven't shoehorned

00:27:38.280 All the

00:27:38.520 Pressures of

00:27:39.020 The world

00:27:39.400 Into the

00:27:39.820 Movie

00:27:40.100 So there's

00:27:40.760 No escape

00:27:41.320 For people

00:27:41.860 Anymore

00:27:42.320 Hollywood

00:27:43.320 Just cannot

00:27:44.320 Figure it out

00:27:45.180 Now I want

00:27:45.720 To ask you

00:27:46.520 Because another

00:27:47.200 Outspoken

00:27:47.840 Musician

00:27:48.380 And it

00:27:48.920 Doesn't matter

00:27:49.260 Where you

00:27:49.580 Fall down

00:27:50.000 On his

00:27:50.280 Politics

00:27:50.680 But Kanye

00:27:51.860 Is part of

00:27:53.020 This ecosystem

00:27:53.900 Building project

00:27:55.020 I see

00:27:55.520 Coming out

00:27:56.580 Of you know

00:27:57.020 The I don't 0.99

00:27:57.780 Don't even

00:27:58.240 Want to say

00:27:58.600 Conservative

00:27:58.960 But maybe

00:27:59.380 Just the

00:27:59.800 Free speech

00:28:00.500 Free thought

00:28:01.260 Side of

00:28:02.300 The aisle

00:28:02.780 With his

00:28:04.660 Proposal

00:28:06.000 To buy

00:28:07.120 Parler

00:28:07.700 What do you

00:28:08.040 Think about

00:28:08.380 That

00:28:08.660 You know

00:28:10.720 I've never

00:28:12.780 Been a super

00:28:13.380 Kanye West

00:28:14.260 Fan

00:28:14.600 I appreciate

00:28:15.560 You know

00:28:16.260 I appreciate

00:28:17.740 Him pushing

00:28:19.980 Buttons

00:28:20.740 Is what I

00:28:21.460 Appreciate

00:28:21.920 Right now

00:28:22.560 And

00:28:23.020 If he wants

00:28:25.160 To buy

00:28:25.460 Parler

00:28:25.940 All right

00:28:26.700 You know

00:28:27.440 That's fine

00:28:28.500 I'd be interested

00:28:29.120 To see what

00:28:29.660 He does

00:28:29.940 With it

00:28:30.120 I think

00:28:30.480 You need

00:28:31.480 Guys like

00:28:31.980 That

00:28:32.320 Everybody's

00:28:33.680 Just so

00:28:34.080 So worn

00:28:36.360 Out

00:28:36.640 With

00:28:36.880 What

00:28:37.880 Already

00:28:38.540 Is 0.88

00:28:39.000 That if

00:28:39.400 Kanye West

00:28:40.080 Buys Parler

00:28:40.700 And Elon

00:28:41.200 Musk 0.77

00:28:41.460 Buys Twitter

00:28:42.060 And you're

00:28:42.820 Stirring the

00:28:43.300 Pot up

00:28:43.760 And making

00:28:44.440 It different

00:28:45.060 I think

00:28:47.200 That that's

00:28:47.620 Good

00:28:47.900 I think

00:28:48.280 That people

00:28:48.660 Are just

00:28:49.020 Pining

00:28:49.400 For

00:28:49.740 You know

00:28:50.320 An

00:28:52.580 A place

00:28:53.620 To speak

00:28:54.180 Up where

00:28:54.500 You don't

00:28:54.760 Feel like

00:28:55.140 You have

00:28:55.500 To watch

00:28:56.220 What you

00:28:56.560 Say anymore

00:28:57.280 But

00:28:57.600 And there's

00:28:58.240 There's

00:28:58.460 A lot

00:28:58.780 Of them

00:28:59.000 Out there

00:28:59.320 There's

00:28:59.420 A good

00:28:59.800 Chunk of 1.00

00:29:00.500 Social media

00:29:01.060 Platforms

00:29:01.760 Where you

00:29:01.980 Can say

00:29:02.360 What you

00:29:02.640 Want to

00:29:02.920 Say

00:29:03.180 But

00:29:03.920 They're

00:29:04.760 Kind of

00:29:05.080 Their own

00:29:05.560 Echo

00:29:06.620 Chambers

00:29:07.160 Right now

00:29:07.800 And it's

00:29:08.540 Great that

00:29:08.940 They're there

00:29:09.460 But you

00:29:10.380 Do still

00:29:10.880 Need to

00:29:11.200 Have that

00:29:11.940 Public

00:29:13.020 Discourse

00:29:13.640 Where you

00:29:14.140 Can have

00:29:14.780 Somebody

00:29:15.220 Disagree

00:29:15.820 With you

00:29:16.300 And you

00:29:17.780 Know that

00:29:18.320 You can

00:29:18.920 Have the

00:29:19.260 Disagreement

00:29:19.780 And that's

00:29:20.260 Just that

00:29:20.780 You're not

00:29:21.200 Going to

00:29:21.420 Get banned

00:29:21.980 You're not

00:29:22.300 Going to

00:29:22.500 Get censored

00:29:23.300 So

00:29:25.160 You know

00:29:26.540 Of course

00:29:27.520 Like Kanye

00:29:28.120 He speaks

00:29:29.520 Up

00:29:29.780 Speaks his

00:29:30.320 Mind

00:29:30.540 And instantly

00:29:31.220 We got to

00:29:31.980 Cancel Kanye

00:29:32.900 You know

00:29:33.440 Good luck

00:29:34.040 Yeah

00:29:35.500 And so

00:29:36.720 We do need

00:29:37.880 You know

00:29:38.240 I'm glad to

00:29:39.140 Have anybody

00:29:39.720 That has

00:29:40.300 That large

00:29:41.100 Of a

00:29:41.360 Platform

00:29:41.740 To really

00:29:42.680 You know

00:29:43.500 Ruffle some

00:29:44.220 Feathers

00:29:44.580 Right now

00:29:45.200 I just

00:29:47.080 You know

00:29:47.460 I'm not

00:29:47.860 Going to

00:29:48.060 Agree

00:29:48.220 With everything

00:29:48.800 He says

00:29:49.340 But I

00:29:49.740 You know

00:29:50.540 That's the

00:29:50.900 Whole point

00:29:51.540 Right

00:29:52.160 Like we

00:29:52.460 Don't

00:29:52.640 They don't

00:29:53.280 Have to

00:29:53.680 Be

00:29:53.920 It doesn't

00:29:54.300 Have to

00:29:54.520 Be

00:29:54.720 Oh he's

00:29:55.240 All over

00:29:56.080 On this

00:29:56.520 Side

00:29:56.920 Or he's

00:29:57.580 All over

00:29:58.060 On this

00:29:58.400 Side

00:29:58.680 And if

00:29:59.020 You're

00:29:59.200 Somewhere

00:29:59.560 In between

00:30:00.140 Then I

00:30:01.100 Just can't

00:30:01.720 Or if

00:30:02.020 You're

00:30:02.140 Somewhere

00:30:02.380 Over there

00:30:02.740 Then I

00:30:03.040 Just can't

00:30:03.500 Follow him

00:30:03.820 I just

00:30:05.420 Want to

00:30:05.660 Get back

00:30:05.960 To that

00:30:06.440 Where it's

00:30:06.900 Like oh

00:30:07.420 Yeah

00:30:07.620 You know

00:30:08.240 I don't

00:30:08.660 Agree

00:30:08.840 With everything

00:30:09.300 They say

00:30:09.740 But you

00:30:10.840 Know

00:30:11.020 I respect

00:30:12.420 Their right

00:30:13.440 To say it

00:30:14.100 And we

00:30:15.020 Can all

00:30:15.360 Just live

00:30:15.900 Life like

00:30:16.420 We used

00:30:16.760 To live

00:30:17.080 Life

00:30:17.440 And get

00:30:18.180 Back to

00:30:18.660 That kind

00:30:19.420 Of normality

00:30:20.140 I also

00:30:21.380 Think

00:30:21.800 We should

00:30:23.120 Be graceful

00:30:23.980 As we watch

00:30:24.840 People evolve

00:30:25.760 From their

00:30:27.420 Other side

00:30:28.180 You know

00:30:28.500 I go around

00:30:29.620 Prostatizing the

00:30:30.620 Good word of

00:30:31.200 Free thought

00:30:31.680 And free

00:30:32.080 Expression

00:30:32.560 And so when

00:30:33.860 We get

00:30:34.140 Somebody from

00:30:34.600 The other

00:30:34.900 Side who

00:30:35.480 Starts to

00:30:36.020 Rethink

00:30:36.460 Their viewpoint

00:30:37.100 I don't

00:30:38.020 Think we

00:30:38.320 Should have

00:30:38.680 A litmus

00:30:39.260 Test or

00:30:39.700 A purity

00:30:40.160 Test for

00:30:40.760 Them let

00:30:41.580 Them evolve

00:30:42.120 Let them 0.55

00:30:42.640 Come around

00:30:43.040 To our

00:30:43.320 Way of

00:30:43.640 Thinking let

00:30:44.380 Them get 0.66

00:30:44.940 Here we

00:30:45.340 Don't have

00:30:45.680 To go

00:30:45.980 Back and

00:30:46.520 Say well

00:30:47.040 You said

00:30:47.440 That back

00:30:48.040 Then and

00:30:48.420 You did

00:30:48.720 That back

00:30:49.160 Then yeah

00:30:50.360 Let them 0.55

00:30:50.840 Have their

00:30:51.240 Saul to

00:30:51.800 Paul moment

00:30:52.560 On the road

00:30:53.540 To Damascus

00:30:54.420 We don't

00:30:54.820 Have to you

00:30:55.680 Know hold

00:30:56.560 Them to the

00:30:57.660 Woke standards

00:30:58.780 But our

00:30:59.540 Own version

00:31:00.300 Of going

00:31:01.240 Back and

00:31:01.840 And post

00:31:02.880 Canceling

00:31:03.480 People as

00:31:04.360 They change

00:31:05.200 Their minds

00:31:05.700 And their

00:31:06.000 Views that

00:31:07.400 We keep

00:31:07.800 Telling them

00:31:08.280 To change

00:31:08.700 Their minds

00:31:09.100 And their

00:31:09.360 Views on

00:31:09.820 Sure yeah

00:31:11.500 You've got

00:31:11.980 That's the

00:31:13.040 Thing that I

00:31:13.440 Like about it

00:31:14.060 If you

00:31:14.340 Ruffle feathers

00:31:14.960 All you're

00:31:15.440 Really doing

00:31:16.040 Regardless of

00:31:16.960 What side

00:31:17.460 You're on

00:31:17.800 Is getting

00:31:18.620 Other people

00:31:19.220 To think

00:31:19.720 I think

00:31:20.080 People are

00:31:20.560 So stale

00:31:21.300 In their

00:31:21.760 Brain right

00:31:22.460 Now with

00:31:23.440 One way

00:31:24.160 Of thinking

00:31:24.640 That you

00:31:26.560 Know if you

00:31:26.860 Can get

00:31:27.120 People to

00:31:27.760 Go oh

00:31:28.520 Kanye said

00:31:29.300 That or

00:31:29.740 Whatever you

00:31:30.480 Know whoever

00:31:30.940 It is then

00:31:33.120 You're cracking

00:31:33.820 That egg open

00:31:35.060 A little bit

00:31:35.600 And getting

00:31:36.020 Them to

00:31:36.520 Think once

00:31:37.480 Again and

00:31:38.180 That's the

00:31:38.600 Road we need

00:31:39.100 To be on

00:31:39.680 Is you know

00:31:41.260 Expanding our

00:31:42.860 Thoughts again

00:31:43.640 And being

00:31:44.700 Willing to

00:31:45.480 Engage with

00:31:46.480 A conversation

00:31:48.820 That might not

00:31:49.560 Be exactly

00:31:50.300 What you think

00:31:51.140 Because everybody

00:31:52.100 Is so locked

00:31:52.800 Into their 0.93

00:31:53.400 Beliefs now 0.98

00:31:54.380 Yeah as a

00:31:56.000 Canadian too I

00:31:56.600 Always look on

00:31:57.240 With great

00:31:57.640 Fascination when

00:31:59.000 I see political

00:32:01.240 Millionaires because

00:32:02.140 We really don't

00:32:02.660 Have that in

00:32:03.260 Canada I bet

00:32:03.840 You can't even

00:32:04.340 Name one

00:32:04.920 Or even

00:32:07.000 Like political

00:32:07.820 Musicians in

00:32:09.020 Canada who

00:32:09.820 Are sort of

00:32:10.320 Speaking out

00:32:10.840 And ruffling

00:32:11.300 Feathers because

00:32:12.060 We have a

00:32:13.440 Very small

00:32:14.620 Group of

00:32:15.120 Elites at

00:32:15.640 The top and

00:32:16.240 Everybody wants

00:32:16.800 To be invited

00:32:17.240 To those

00:32:17.600 Fancy parties

00:32:18.300 And the

00:32:19.120 Only time you

00:32:19.540 Ever hear of

00:32:20.060 Our millionaires

00:32:20.980 Speaking out

00:32:21.680 On issues of

00:32:22.420 Politics is when

00:32:23.520 They go to

00:32:23.880 The United

00:32:24.280 States and

00:32:24.820 Get jobs on

00:32:25.380 Shark Tank

00:32:25.960 Like Kevin

00:32:27.640 O'Leary but

00:32:28.740 They don't

00:32:29.060 Stay here and

00:32:29.940 Do the things

00:32:30.560 Like Elon Musk

00:32:31.420 Is doing or

00:32:32.360 Peter Thiel or

00:32:33.660 Kanye so as

00:32:35.500 A Canadian I'm

00:32:36.080 Always like we

00:32:36.620 Need some of

00:32:37.180 Those guys but

00:32:38.020 We just have

00:32:38.820 Sort of a

00:32:39.340 Small pool at

00:32:40.360 The top I

00:32:42.160 Promise you only

00:32:42.800 20 minutes I've

00:32:43.480 Taken up more

00:32:44.020 Of your time

00:32:44.580 Than that

00:32:45.060 Brad tell us

00:32:47.880 About your

00:32:48.600 New music

00:32:50.180 Coming out

00:32:50.960 And why

00:32:53.200 Why this

00:32:54.060 Why this

00:32:54.740 Album title

00:32:55.860 So I have

00:32:58.280 An album

00:32:58.620 Coming out

00:32:59.240 First week in

00:33:00.560 November called

00:33:01.440 Silent War

00:33:02.160 There's a song

00:33:03.560 Called Silent

00:33:04.140 War on the

00:33:04.880 Album and

00:33:05.380 This album

00:33:06.060 Actually pulls

00:33:06.660 Together all of

00:33:07.400 The singles that

00:33:08.320 I put out over

00:33:09.160 The last year

00:33:09.740 And a half

00:33:10.260 Collects them

00:33:11.240 Into one spot

00:33:12.080 With a couple

00:33:13.980 More new songs

00:33:14.900 And it's

00:33:16.380 It's just

00:33:16.920 Sort of a way

00:33:17.480 To document

00:33:18.140 Everything that

00:33:18.880 I've put out

00:33:19.400 I've sort of

00:33:19.820 Been writing

00:33:21.260 An album in

00:33:21.900 Real time over

00:33:22.680 The last year

00:33:23.420 And a half

00:33:23.900 Without realizing

00:33:24.740 It and then

00:33:25.440 People started

00:33:26.620 Asking you know

00:33:27.360 Where's the

00:33:27.780 Album so

00:33:28.540 I wanted to

00:33:29.520 Put them

00:33:29.820 Together and

00:33:30.660 It's it's been

00:33:31.540 An interesting

00:33:31.980 Project because

00:33:32.920 I put the

00:33:34.280 Track the track

00:33:35.060 List in the

00:33:36.020 Order on the

00:33:36.760 Album is the

00:33:37.620 Order in which

00:33:38.280 I released the

00:33:39.040 Songs and it

00:33:39.620 Sort of tells a

00:33:40.700 Story from the

00:33:41.420 Beginning of

00:33:42.640 Where I started

00:33:43.400 Out as a

00:33:43.960 Songwriter

00:33:44.460 And what

00:33:46.780 Has sort of

00:33:47.420 Happened and

00:33:48.080 Unfolded over

00:33:48.760 The last year

00:33:49.500 And a half

00:33:50.000 So you know

00:33:53.160 It just seemed

00:33:53.720 Time to put

00:33:54.300 These songs

00:33:54.740 Together into

00:33:55.320 One collection

00:33:56.080 It's called

00:33:56.860 Silent War

00:33:57.560 Because of the

00:33:58.180 Song Silent

00:33:58.780 War which is

00:33:59.480 Essentially about

00:34:00.820 What we're

00:34:01.380 Facing it's a

00:34:02.820 Psychological war

00:34:04.240 Everybody's online

00:34:07.700 The battle at

00:34:08.380 Hand right now

00:34:09.660 Kind of war

00:34:10.340 Than we've

00:34:10.880 Ever fought

00:34:18.440 Battle at hand

00:34:19.780 Of feels locked

00:34:21.620 Behind a screen

00:35:16.460 Anymore they've

00:35:17.080 Sort of abandoned

00:35:17.800 Holding the

00:35:19.540 Piece you know

00:35:20.760 Holding a record

00:35:21.820 And listening to

00:35:22.640 It I kind of

00:35:23.080 Wanted to bring

00:35:23.560 That back and

00:35:24.400 Holding a CD

00:35:25.280 And reading the

00:35:26.000 Lyrics as you

00:35:27.760 To bring that

00:35:28.300 Back so get

00:35:30.580 Copy if you

00:35:31.420 If you want it

00:35:32.380 Yeah you know

00:35:33.140 I was thinking

00:35:33.500 About that the

00:35:34.000 Other day just

00:35:34.800 Pulling out the

00:35:35.860 The sheet the

00:35:37.720 Liner notes from

00:35:39.400 A CD that used

00:35:40.740 To be so gratifying

00:35:41.900 When you took the

00:35:42.580 Plastic off a CD

00:35:43.460 And then you

00:35:43.880 Rip the liner out

00:35:44.660 To make sure that

00:35:45.500 You actually had the

00:35:46.260 Words you were

00:35:46.680 Singing right

00:35:47.360 Right

00:35:48.180 Yeah and it

00:35:50.880 Was yours though

00:35:51.880 You know it was

00:35:52.740 Your copy and

00:35:54.080 You could write in

00:35:55.800 It or staple it

00:35:56.780 On the wall with

00:35:57.540 A bunch of other

00:35:58.200 Album covers and

00:35:59.680 You know that's

00:36:01.120 Something that I've

00:36:01.820 Always loved about

00:36:02.540 Music was the

00:36:03.340 Actual physical

00:36:04.040 Copy of it as

00:36:05.020 Well and so it

00:36:06.180 Creates an

00:36:09.560 Experience and

00:37:43.040 For those today's

00:37:44.620 Comment actually comes

00:37:46.500 From YouTube and I'm

00:37:47.300 Not one to support

00:37:48.440 YouTube it's a

00:37:50.020 Censorship platform but

00:37:51.260 Today's comment was

00:37:52.340 Just so great that

00:37:55.240 I'll make an

00:37:56.040 Exception just this

00:37:57.180 Once and it's on my

00:37:58.020 Interview last week

00:37:59.600 With my friend and

00:38:01.980 Colleague and our

00:38:02.880 Chief documentary

00:38:03.880 Filmmaker here at

00:38:04.960 Rebel News Kian

00:38:06.100 Simone on his

00:38:07.800 Documentary called

00:38:09.440 Ungovernable it's

00:38:10.780 About Alberta's

00:38:11.940 Quest for

00:38:12.640 Independence and

00:38:13.460 How independence

00:38:14.160 Means different

00:38:15.120 Things to different

00:38:15.900 People but it's for

00:38:18.080 Albertans to chart

00:38:19.460 Our own path

00:38:20.140 Forward and largely

00:38:21.860 For us I think as

00:38:24.300 Albertans we just 0.69

00:38:26.180 Want to be left

00:38:26.800 Alone and being

00:38:27.560 Left alone means a

00:38:28.420 Lot of things to a

00:38:29.340 Lot of different

00:38:29.840 People but it is my

00:38:31.380 Personal political

00:38:32.220 Philosophy leave me

00:38:33.800 Alone that's it

00:38:35.540 Leave me alone I'll

00:38:36.520 Leave you alone and

00:38:37.740 Don't use the

00:38:38.500 Government to make

00:38:39.100 Me care about the

00:38:39.780 Things that you care

00:38:40.380 About because I

00:38:42.320 Don't like that and

00:38:43.600 A government that

00:38:45.100 Cares about what I

00:38:47.520 Care about is a

00:38:48.300 Government that is

00:38:48.960 Way too big and way

00:38:49.960 Too expensive anyway

00:38:50.800 Let's read the very

00:38:52.560 Great comment that I

00:38:53.940 Found on YouTube it's

00:38:55.640 From James C and

00:38:57.360 It's a quote he

00:38:59.660 Writes the most

00:39:00.460 Terrifying force of

00:39:01.520 Death comes from the

00:39:02.840 Hands of men who

00:39:03.600 Want to be left

00:39:04.260 Alone they try so

00:39:06.180 Very hard to mind

00:39:07.420 Their own business

00:39:08.100 And to provide for

00:39:09.100 Themselves and those

00:39:10.620 They love they

00:39:11.340 Resist every impulse

00:39:12.660 To fight back

00:39:13.400 Knowing the force

00:39:15.240 And permanent change

00:39:16.400 Of life that will

00:39:17.180 Come from it they

00:39:18.200 Know that the

00:39:19.360 Moment they fight

00:39:20.040 Back their lives as 0.57

00:39:21.040 They have lived them

00:39:22.100 Are over the moment

00:39:23.140 The men who wanted

00:39:24.620 To be left alone are

00:39:25.880 Forced to fight back

00:39:26.840 It is a form of

00:39:27.680 Suicide they are

00:39:28.400 Literally killing

00:39:29.260 Off who they

00:39:30.540 Used to be which

00:39:32.180 Is why when

00:39:33.360 Forced to take up

00:39:34.140 Violence these men

00:39:35.440 Who want to be left

00:39:36.240 Alone fight with

00:39:37.160 Unholy vengeance

00:39:38.340 Against those who

00:39:39.360 Murdered their

00:39:39.920 Former lives they 0.97

00:39:41.520 Fight with raw hate

00:39:42.520 And a drive that

00:39:43.380 Cannot be fathomed by

00:39:44.820 Those who are merely 0.99

00:39:45.660 Play acting at

00:39:46.580 Politics and terror

00:39:47.680 True terror will

00:39:49.600 Arrive at these

00:39:50.300 People's doors and

00:39:51.280 They will cry scream

00:39:52.400 And beg for mercy

00:39:53.300 But it will fall

00:39:54.520 Upon the deaf ears

00:39:55.820 Of men who just

00:39:57.080 Wanted to be left

00:39:57.760 Alone he says the

00:39:59.280 Author is unknown

00:40:00.180 There but it is

00:40:04.220 True you know

00:40:05.140 When and I'm not

00:40:06.640 Saying the people

00:40:07.260 At coots were

00:40:08.180 Involved in any

00:40:10.420 Violence in fact

00:40:11.160 They were peaceful

00:40:11.780 I think to the

00:40:13.580 Bitter bitter end

00:40:14.480 But when you are

00:40:18.400 Compelling people

00:40:19.840 Who want to be

00:40:21.080 Left alone to

00:40:22.620 Finally act

00:40:23.920 You're dealing

00:40:25.160 With someone that

00:40:25.800 You have

00:40:26.380 Unintentionally

00:40:27.860 Radicalized and 0.99

00:40:29.060 So help you God

00:40:29.840 Well everybody
