00:01:11.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:13.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:01:15.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:18.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:22.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:23.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:24.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:01:26.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:32.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:41.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:44.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.

00:01:53.000 Joining us for the full hour is one of my favorite guests and one of my favorite people in the conservative movement, especially when it comes to the issues that really matter.

00:02:02.000 Jason Whitlock joins us, host of Fearless with Jason Whitlock.

00:02:07.000 And also, I want to promote a very exciting roll call conference in Nashville, April 14th and 15th, right outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

00:02:18.000 And Jason will tell us more about that.

00:02:21.000 Jason, welcome to the program.

00:02:23.000 Charlie, thank you for having me.

00:02:25.000 I really appreciate it.

00:02:26.000 I can't push back against being called a conservative, but I like to think of myself as part of the Christian movement.

00:02:35.000 Amen.

00:02:36.000 That's the only thing that's going to save America.

00:02:38.000 You're always welcome to correct me on titles because you label me, you negate me.

00:02:43.000 So that's actually a great segue to a story that fires me up.

00:02:46.000 And I sent this to my team yesterday and we were thinking about who's the best person to address this.

00:02:52.000 And it's March Madness season.

00:02:54.000 I love March Madness, one of my favorite kind of sport chapters of the entire calendar year.

00:03:00.000 Texas Tech suspends basketball coach for quoting the Bible.

00:03:04.000 Not sure if you saw the story or not, Jason, but this Texas Tech coach is now on leave, university suspended, head men's basketball coach Mark Adams for quoting the Bible to a student athlete.

00:03:17.000 Jason, your reaction to the story.

00:03:20.000 Yeah, I'm not surprised by it at all.

00:03:23.000 We talked about it quite a bit on my show yesterday.

00:03:27.000 Listen, on college campuses and in American society, a biblical worldview is under attack.

00:03:35.000 It's being demonized.

00:03:37.000 It's being categorized as hate speech.

00:03:40.000 And, you know, these young kids on college campuses have been radicalized and convinced that America's Judeo-Christian culture and founding are evil and at the root of everything that's wrong with this country. 0.98

00:03:58.000 And it's why, you know, we don't accept the LGBTQ. 0.51

00:04:02.000 It's why we don't accept transgenderism. 0.95

00:04:05.000 And so I'm not surprised at all that a coach trying to reach a kid, you know, quote some scripture, and the kid in the school twists what he's doing. 1.00

00:04:21.000 How dare you, you know, read scripture?

00:04:24.000 How dare you read scripture that mentions the word slavery and context and reality don't matter.

00:04:30.000 And then the corporate media gets involved and they call it racially insensitive.

00:04:35.000 And, you know, when you can turn the Bible into hate speech, it really just speaks to, you know, what kind of cultural war we're in.

00:04:46.000 And it lets you know who's really under attack.

00:04:49.000 And it's Jesus Christ.

00:04:50.000 And it's our Christian founding here in America that's under attack. 1.00

00:04:54.000 They want to uproot all of it. 1.00

00:04:56.000 You can do some, let's just say, rather shady things in recruiting athletes nowadays.

00:05:01.000 And boy, Jason, am I hearing stories of what coaches are doing now with the NIL stuff?

00:05:05.000 I don't know if it's legal, but it certainly isn't, it certainly isn't moral, the things I'm hearing of vehicles and paid trips and parents.

00:05:12.000 I'm sure you're hearing stories about this too.

00:05:14.000 It's one of the most underreported aspects of college athletics right now is just the wild west of ethics with recruiting kids.

00:05:22.000 But if you quote the Bible, and by the way, just the exact Bible verse that he was quoted about how the Bible calls us to be servants, it might not have exactly resonated with the student, but why is this a problem?

00:05:33.000 How did the university find out?

00:05:34.000 That's my question.

00:05:35.000 I mean, coaches say stuff all the time.

00:05:37.000 You're with them.

00:05:37.000 They're running their mouth.

00:05:38.000 They're sleeping four hours a night.

00:05:39.000 You're getting ready for the big dance, hopefully.

00:05:41.000 But this is a problem for the university.

00:05:43.000 I think this is grotesque.

00:05:46.000 Well, it's probably a problem because all of these young athletes and particularly black athletes have been convinced and radicalized that, you know, America's founding is evil and its founding is related to the Bible. 0.89

00:06:04.000 And so you've got a lot of young black kids who have been convinced that Christianity is evil.

00:06:13.000 And so I would imagine the kid that complained has that point of view. 0.82

00:06:18.000 And how dare this 65-year-old white man read, you know, Bible scripture to me to tell me how to be a better basketball player?

00:06:28.000 Don't you know that Christianity justified slavery?

00:06:34.000 And again, it's 180 degrees diametrically. 0.98

00:06:39.000 It's just a lie. 0.95

00:06:40.000 Christianity is what ended slavery.

00:06:44.000 But they've been convinced that it justified slavery.

00:06:48.000 And so, you know, as the coach, and particularly in football and basketball, a lot of coaches, particularly Mark Adams' age, get it into coaching as part of their own personal ministry to give back to kids.

00:07:03.000 I'm not talking about now that he's the head coach at Texas Tech and making all that money.

00:07:08.000 I'm talking when he first dreamed of being a coach, it was about, hey, I'm going to help kids.

00:07:13.000 And I'm going to use this as a ministry to young men and help, you know, help them in their walk through life.

00:07:21.000 And we've basically outlawed that.

00:07:23.000 You can't be Tony Dungy anymore, Charlie.

00:07:27.000 Tony Dungy, celebrated African-American coach in the National Football League.

00:07:32.000 And he was celebrated for a lot of years because of his values.

00:07:34.000 And his values were openly Christian, but they love to talk about openly gay.

00:07:40.000 There used to be a time you could be openly Christian. 0.82

00:07:43.000 Now if you're a Christian, you got to hide in the closet. 0.97

00:07:47.000 And if you're openly gay, you get to run out in the closet and all your values can't be questioned. 0.99

00:07:52.000 That's the kind of crazy place we're living in America. 1.00

00:07:56.000 I believe the kid stirred this up.

00:07:58.000 He's probably frustrated with his playing time and being coached hard, and is now pretending like his feelings were hurt because someone read a Bible scripture to him.

00:08:08.000 And Tony Dungy's been through a lot of personal trauma as well, a lot with his son.

00:08:14.000 It's really sad and tragic.

00:08:15.000 And so, Jason, we're seeing this.

00:08:19.000 We're really living through the excesses of not just a secular, but a militantly secular society.

00:08:29.000 And without any sort of core moral value, you have to have something to fill it.

00:08:34.000 And we see that in sports because if you remove God from society, people are going to find some other fake and weird religion to fill that void.

00:08:43.000 And that's why in the National Football League, they have the end racism stuff. 0.80

00:08:47.000 They have the just nauseating commitment in hockey to the gay agenda, which I just, that one I can't understand. 0.87

00:08:54.000 If you want to talk about a sports, you know, a fan, a community where it's probably wokeism is the least popular, I would imagine to be hockey. 1.00

00:09:02.000 Maybe I'm wrong. 0.92

00:09:03.000 But, you know, Jason, it seems as if that is, would you agree with the statement that Christians allowed this to happen? 0.99

00:09:11.000 Without question. 0.96

00:09:13.000 Because, and we have allowed our sin to silence us.

00:09:23.000 The left and the atheist and the secular, they're very clever.

00:09:27.000 And so they have said, you can't say anything.

00:09:31.000 Jason, didn't you used to be friends with a strip club owner?

00:09:36.000 Didn't you used to hang out drinking party? 0.99

00:09:39.000 And so, Jason, shut up. 0.99

00:09:40.000 You can't say anything. 0.98

00:09:42.000 And a lot of us ran into silence because we didn't want to use our own, we didn't want our own failings to be used against us.

00:09:50.000 And that's why I've really committed to a saying and just some bearing witness requires courage, not perfection.

00:10:00.000 Jesus died on a cross for our sins.

00:10:04.000 We are brought into this world, evil, need Jesus as our Lord and Savior, or we will not combat our wicked nature.

00:10:14.000 And so I try to encourage people not to live a life of sin, but to not let your sins and failing silence you from speaking the truth about Jesus Christ and about anything, because they're really just trying to silence truth. 1.00

00:10:31.000 That's how we have this thing with 72 genders. 1.00

00:10:36.000 And, you know, you can't, that's people have been convinced that the police are out on this violent rampage, just killing black men indiscriminately.

00:10:47.000 There's no one, black or white, that actually believes that.

00:10:52.000 But there's a risk if you stand up and say, well, that's not true.

00:10:56.000 Are you kidding me?

00:10:57.000 The only people I will say that agree with it, Jason, is these delusional 19-year-old kids that I talk to on campuses. 0.58

00:11:04.000 Sometimes it really is amazing to hear a black kid at UC Santa Barbara say it's more dangerous to be a black in America than any place else on earth. 0.78

00:11:14.000 I mean, it's just so outside of reality. 0.89

00:11:16.000 And I say, you live in Santa Barbara.

00:11:18.000 You realize that, right?

00:11:22.000 Look, with so much chaos and danger in the world these days, I highly recommend you stock up on emergency food right away.

00:12:11.000 I want to get your reaction to this back and forth.

00:12:14.000 JJ Reddick, who I always enjoyed watching JJ Reddick at Duke, great player, called out Kendrick Perkins for suggesting that Nikola Zokic, Steve Nash, and Dirk Nowitzki only won the MVP because they were white.

00:12:30.000 And now, mind you, I've stopped watching the NBA a couple years ago.

00:12:33.000 I might watch the playoffs here or there.

00:12:35.000 I didn't even know who Nikola Djokic was until somebody told me about him.

00:12:40.000 That's how disconnected I am.

00:12:41.000 But Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash, now those were my guys growing up.

00:12:46.000 And so I find this whole narrative to be repulsive.

00:12:49.000 But good for JJ Reddick.

00:12:50.000 I'm sure he's going to get a call from Disney for speaking truth, play cut 59.

00:12:54.000 It is an honor to be on this desk every day.

00:12:57.000 It really is.

00:12:58.000 But what we've just witnessed is the problem with this show, where we create narratives that do not exist in reality.

00:13:07.000 The implication, what you are implying, that the white voters that vote on NBA are racist.

00:13:14.000 They favor white people.

00:13:15.000 You just said that.

00:13:17.000 Yes, you did.

00:13:20.000 That is exactly what you imply, Kendrick Perkins.

00:13:22.000 That is exactly what you implied.

00:13:24.000 Secondly, hold on.

00:13:25.000 Hold on.

00:13:26.000 I did not call.

00:13:26.000 I stated the facts.

00:13:28.000 I stated the facts.

00:13:29.000 And you're not about to sit up.

00:13:30.000 We all know what you implied the other day.

00:13:32.000 We all know what you implied this time.

00:13:34.000 Hold on.

00:13:34.000 I stated it's the fact.

00:13:36.000 It's the facts.

00:13:37.000 It's the facts.

00:13:39.000 Jason, is it the facts?

00:13:40.000 What's going on here?

00:13:43.000 So I know Kendrick Perkins.

00:13:45.000 He used to appear on a show I did for Fox Sports.

00:13:50.000 Look, Kendrick is like a lot of athletes.

00:13:55.000 They spend a lot of time developing their physical gifts and don't spend a lot of time working on critical thinking.

00:14:06.000 And so much of their thinking comes from Twitter.

00:14:09.000 And Twitter has convinced many of these athletes and many of the broadcasters on TV that racism explains everything.

00:14:18.000 Anything that they don't like, racism is the answer.

00:14:23.000 And so Nikola Jokic and a lot of foreign-born players are dominating the NBA. 0.88

00:14:34.000 And I'm talking black and white, for Yannis, Ante Tecumpo.

00:14:37.000 That's right.

00:14:37.000 Luca.

00:14:38.000 See, I know that one.

00:14:39.000 There you go.

00:14:39.000 Luca.

00:14:43.000 There's a lot of black Joel MB. 1.00

00:14:46.000 He's not from America. 1.00

00:14:48.000 They're dominating the NBA right now.

00:14:52.000 And Nicola Jokic is about to win his third straight MVP. 1.00

00:14:56.000 And the black American-born players are frustrated and don't even understand. 0.96

00:15:02.000 I wrote about Kendrick and these guys that Kendrick really is a MAGA person. 0.90

00:15:09.000 He's an America first person, but he can't say that.

00:15:12.000 He can't say, hey, you know, they got all these foreign players dominating the NBA, black and white guys.

00:15:18.000 And, you know, it's infringing on what had been our little sweet spot of dominance in the NBA.

00:15:26.000 He can't say that.

00:15:27.000 He can't be an America first person because, you know, he has to hate Donald Trump.

00:15:32.000 He has to hate anything that really supports America.

00:15:35.000 And so he plays the race card and falls into that trap of instead of saying, hey, the NBA has opened its borders and is allowing players from all over the world to come in and play and they're now taking our jobs.

00:15:51.000 He can't say that because we've bought into this global citizen.

00:15:56.000 Well, and I'm just curious, though, Jason, I mean, why do you think that is?

00:16:00.000 Why is it that, and it's so interesting, I haven't heard anybody say that.

00:16:03.000 And I actually have no necessary problem with it.

00:16:07.000 They're just better.

00:16:08.000 Why is it that our players aren't, is it AAU?

00:16:10.000 Is it just, is it a technical thing?

00:16:11.000 Is it a cultural thing?

00:16:13.000 Well, as it relates to American-born African-American players.

00:16:17.000 Or blacks or white, whatever.

00:16:18.000 Why is it that our players are not necessarily dominating the league as much as foreign-born? 0.50

00:16:23.000 I'm going to reduce it to the black American players because that's who has been dominating the GPA for 50, 60 years. 1.00

00:16:32.000 Charlie, our family structure is in such tatter, is in such horrible shape that you just don't produce the same kind of kids that we used to. 1.00

00:16:43.000 That it's just a fact.

00:16:47.000 Our family structure is in such shambles that we're not producing the same quality of athletes.

00:16:54.000 They're not as tough.

00:16:55.000 They're not mentally tough.

00:16:57.000 Again, as you see with Kendrick Perkins and Kendrick actually comes from a decent family, but he's part of a culture that celebrates ignorance.

00:17:06.000 And so these guys don't think critically.

00:17:09.000 The game has become more international and European.

00:17:14.000 It's being driven by these advanced metric stats.

00:17:22.000 Reverse mortgages can be complicated and even a little scary.

00:17:25.000 Your home is your biggest investment and often your biggest asset.

00:17:28.000 You need the people that I trust, Andrew Del Rey and Todd of Akian at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:17:33.000 Reverse mortgages are a way to get cash out of the equity in your home and eliminate your monthly mortgage payments forever.

00:17:39.000 You pay back the loan when you no longer live in your property.

00:17:42.000 Andrew and Todd have helped countless people get reverse mortgages.

00:17:45.000 They're Christians.

00:17:46.000 They're patriots.

00:17:47.000 They love the Lord.

00:17:48.000 They're honest. 0.96

00:17:49.000 And they will deal way better with you than these silly big banks that honestly couldn't care less about you.

00:17:55.000 It might not be right for everybody, but if it fits, it truly is a life changer, helping you preserve your way of life in difficult times.

00:18:02.000 Trust is the hardest thing to find when you're getting a mortgage.

00:18:05.000 I can tell you, you should trust Andrew Del Rey and Todd of Akian.

00:18:09.000 I trust them.

00:18:09.000 They're friends of mine.

00:18:11.000 Call them and say, Charlie Kirk sent you.

00:18:13.000 If you're considering a reverse mortgage or need more information on how it works, they'll give you an honest assessment of the options available.

00:18:20.000 Give them a call at 888 888 1172.

00:18:22.000 That is 888 888 1172 or online at andrewandtodd.com.

00:18:27.000 That is 888 888 1172 or AndrewandTodd.com.

00:18:34.000 Jason, before we dive into that topic even deeper, can you tell our audience about the Nashville event you have coming up?

00:18:41.000 Yeah, on April 14th and 15th, we're hosting the first Fearless Army roll call Event where we're trying to gather men and encourage them to bear witness to the power, grace, mercy of Jesus Christ.

00:18:58.000 And because we believe, and my show was about promoting responsible men to rise up and take back leadership of this country and their community and their home, and that the only solution to this madness is a return to a biblical worldview and biblical values. 1.00

00:19:17.000 And we have to stand on that regardless of the consequences, or we're going to leave young people, your children, your grandchildren, a world that you will not recognize in a world that you do not want them to live in, and a world that will favor the LGBTQ, the transgender. 0.95

00:19:36.000 If you're wondering why the whole society is being set up to favor them, it's because as Christians, we haven't stood on our values. 0.99

00:19:45.000 And so we're going to have good food, good music, a good time, hear some great speeches from guys I respect and try to inspire guys to live up to our biblical values, no matter how flawed we are, no matter whatever mistakes we've made in our past.

00:20:03.000 It's time for those of us that are believers to stand up and to take the responsibility that God put on men to lead this country and to lead our families and to lead our communities.

00:20:14.000 You say men.

00:20:15.000 I love that.

00:20:16.000 I'm sure the media will attack that.

00:20:19.000 Who cares about that?

00:20:20.000 But just zero in on that.

00:20:21.000 We need strong men.

00:20:23.000 There's no question about it.

00:20:25.000 Listen, God called us to be leaders. 0.98

00:20:29.000 And the whole feminist movement, the whole matriarchary movement is an utter failure. 1.00

00:20:35.000 And that's why this country is in such chaos. 0.99

00:20:38.000 Women don't like to draw lines in the sand. 1.00

00:20:40.000 They want to make everybody happy.

00:20:42.000 That's why we have drag queens at schools and in libraries. 1.00

00:20:45.000 Hey, everybody, just get along.

00:20:47.000 And, you know, hey, let them do this, let them do that.

00:20:51.000 Men, properly functioning men, draw lines in the sand and say, no, we're not doing that with our kids.

00:20:59.000 We're not having that at our schools. 0.99

00:21:01.000 And so if men don't stand up, women are going to lay down. 1.00

00:21:06.000 And I don't mean that in any sexual way, but I just mean they're not going to stand up and draw that line in the sand and say, hey, Ned, we're not having that.

00:21:15.000 And so, look, I'm a patriarch.

00:21:18.000 I believe in the patriarchy.

00:21:19.000 I believe in the natural order.

00:21:21.000 I believe in the nuclear family.

00:21:24.000 And if we don't encourage each other to stand on those values, we're going to continue to surrender this culture to people that are satanic, secular, atheists, just want to build a world based on feelings and not any kind of logic or reason.

00:21:42.000 It's incumbent upon men to save this country, and it's incumbent upon men to get right with God.

00:21:48.000 That's the only way we're going to leave a better world for these young people following in behind us.

00:21:52.000 Well, I love that. 0.96

00:21:54.000 And when you don't have men, then women have to start to act like men and they do all sorts of other goofy stuff. 1.00

00:22:00.000 And then really bad people can take advantage of both women and take advantage of children. 0.99

00:22:05.000 And we're seeing that play out all across the country with the decline in testosterone rates, men stopping, you know, being men any longer, little purpose, very little purpose, very little understanding of their place in the world.

00:22:18.000 And it's tragic.

00:22:20.000 And we need to fix that.

00:22:21.000 Okay, I want to play a piece of tape here.

00:22:24.000 Chris Rock.

00:22:25.000 Oh, I'm so glad you brought Chris Rock up.

00:22:28.000 That's what I wanted to go to next.

00:22:30.000 Well, we got it.

00:22:30.000 So I haven't even seen this piece of tape yet.

00:22:32.000 So I'll enjoy it for the first time.

00:22:34.000 I've read the transcript, but let's play Cut 57.

00:22:37.000 I'm in my own neighborhood the other day. 0.96

00:22:39.000 I'm fucking about my good friend Fred. 0.93

00:22:41.000 Hadn't seen him in years. 0.98

00:22:43.000 Hadn't seen him in years.

00:22:44.000 Fred got a new job at 18 T.

00:22:48.000 So I'm like, hey, Fred, how's the job?

00:22:50.000 And Fred's like, oh, I love the job.

00:22:53.000 It's a safe space.

00:22:56.000 I feel seen.

00:22:58.000 I feel heard.

00:23:00.000 There's a lot of diversity.

00:23:02.000 And I'm looking at him like, it's me.

00:23:08.000 But you think I'm wearing a wire?

00:23:12.000 What the f are you talking about?

00:23:14.000 Safe space.

00:23:15.000 You've been eight years for manslaughter.

00:23:20.000 Nobody's safe around you.

00:23:23.000 Jason, you're wearing a wire.

00:23:25.000 He has a way of just hitting it perfectly.

00:23:27.000 Your thoughts?

00:23:28.000 Charlie, his special is awesome.

00:23:31.000 Now, it is profane.

00:23:33.000 Oh, whatever.

00:23:34.000 You know, this is God is safe for us.

00:23:36.000 I'm going to get an email from a Christian. 1.00

00:23:38.000 How dare you air that? 1.00

00:23:38.000 Get over yourself. 1.00

00:23:39.000 Okay.

00:23:39.000 There's a time and place for that type of humor.

00:23:41.000 Please continue.

00:23:43.000 And so what I would tell Christians, though, I'm just telling you, everything Chris talked about was from a biblical worldview.

00:23:50.000 He put a clown suit on abortion advocates.

00:23:54.000 He comes off, he frames it like he's pro-abortion, but he calls abortion murder. 0.86

00:24:01.000 He talks about the ugliness of it.

00:24:06.000 It's an amazing show.

00:24:08.000 I was going to say he even talked about the importance of men and working.

00:24:14.000 And he went through this whole joke about how you know when you're in a good neighborhood at 12 noon on a weekday, if you got women in sweatsuits, walking babies, riding bikes, and just leaving the gym, you know you're in a good neighborhood.

00:24:30.000 If you know you're in a bad neighborhood, if men are out in the middle of the day in sweatsuits, lifting weights, just leaving the gym and riding bikes, that's how you know you're in a bad neighborhood.

00:24:42.000 Men need to be working. 1.00

00:24:45.000 There were so many different things he described in here from just a, and he didn't, he didn't say Bible.

00:24:52.000 He never mentioned God or anything, but it was comforting to me to see a comedian basically tell jokes from a biblical perspective.

00:25:01.000 And it gave me hope that, hey, maybe the culture is finally going to start pushing back and start doing things that are more in line with truth and reality.

00:25:11.000 Let's play Cut 58.

00:25:13.000 Chris Rock continues on woke businesses.

00:25:15.000 Cut 58.

00:25:17.000 I'm in the mall the other day.

00:25:18.000 I went by that store.

00:25:19.000 What's this thing?

00:25:20.000 Lululemon.

00:25:22.000 Lululemon.

00:25:23.000 I walk by, and in the window of every Lululemon, there's a sign that says, we don't support racism, sexism, discrimination, or hate.

00:25:35.000 And I'm like, who gives a f?

00:25:39.000 You're just selling yoga pants. 0.99

00:25:42.000 I don't need your yoga pants politics. 0.58

00:25:46.000 Tell me how you work on ball sweat.

00:25:50.000 Jason, your thoughts.

00:25:53.000 I mean, he really, he just, he nailed it.

00:25:57.000 A lot of stuff that's getting attention is he slapped Will Smith over the Oscar slap and he went after Will Smith really hard, but he went after these corporations in a way that I just been waiting for a comedian to do this.

00:26:11.000 And say, why do I care about McDonald's opinions on political issues or race, all the virtue signaling?

00:26:21.000 And again, you mentioned the NFL, end racism, whatever.

00:26:26.000 The NFL, no, guys, I want to see you play football.

00:26:29.000 You're not going to end race.

00:26:31.000 And that's a nice little slogan that makes you sound good, but it does nothing. 0.96

00:26:38.000 And so, Lululemon, your little and people that put the little signs out in front of their house in this house, Black Lives Matter, and all this other crap. 0.95

00:26:47.000 None of that stuff matters. 0.98

00:26:49.000 It's about you.

00:26:50.000 Just do your job.

00:26:52.000 Sell me good sweatpants.

00:26:54.000 Give me that double filet of fish sandwich when I come through the drive-thru at McDonald's.

00:26:58.000 I don't want to know about your politics.

00:27:00.000 I don't want to know what you think about feminism or abortion or any of this other stuff. 1.00

00:27:06.000 Make them hamburgers.

00:27:07.000 I've been losing weight, Charlie, but I still like to make food jokes.

00:27:11.000 And so I just love what Chris did.

00:27:16.000 And I'm amazed that, you know, Netflix played, paid for it, and put it and platformed it.

00:27:22.000 It's all gave me a little hope.

00:27:24.000 So I want you to build out a little bit further.

00:27:25.000 I haven't seen the whole special or just the clips we've seen, but some people might say, Jason, come on, biblical Chris Rock.

00:27:32.000 What do you mean by that?

00:27:34.000 I'm saying his jokes came from a biblical point of view.

00:27:38.000 At one point, he talked about kids and that he goes, you hear people say, kids are born into the world pure and we make them bad.

00:27:49.000 And he goes, only people to say that are people that ain't got kids.

00:27:53.000 Well, that's right.

00:27:54.000 That is a bit.

00:27:55.000 That is Genesis 6.

00:27:56.000 That is correct.

00:27:57.000 The heart of man is flawed from birth.

00:27:59.000 Yeah, sorry.

00:28:00.000 And so he was making fun of that and saying, like, I got kids.

00:28:03.000 My oldest daughter, when she was a little kid, she used to bite people all the time. 1.00

00:28:08.000 You think me and my wife taught her that?

00:28:11.000 You think me and her mother taught her, you know, bought her little mannequin and helped her practice biting people?

00:28:15.000 He's like, no, people come into this world wicked, and that's just on them.

00:28:22.000 And so he didn't tell the other side.

00:28:24.000 He didn't go as far as I would have gone and said, you know, and said, like, and the Bible will tell you that, that, you know, that's why you need Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

00:28:32.000 But his whole point of view was consistent with a biblical worldview.

00:28:38.000 And that's what we haven't been getting from comedians.

00:28:41.000 You turn on any of these late night shows and they're all cracking jokes. 0.99

00:28:45.000 If you're not a thousand percent on board with men pretending to be women and children cutting their breasts and penises off, you're the bad guy. 0.99

00:28:56.000 Chris Rock didn't crack those kind of jokes. 0.99

00:28:58.000 And I just appreciated that.

00:29:00.000 I could sit here and watch a comedy special and virtually no joke that was cracked violated my core principles.

00:29:10.000 So Jason, I do want to talk about the trans thing.

00:29:12.000 I think it's really important.

00:29:13.000 It seems as if it's getting wildly out of control culturally.

00:29:17.000 The one part of this that I would love your take: why are parents seemingly so passive on this?

00:29:24.000 Scared.

00:29:25.000 Everybody's just scared.

00:29:26.000 And everybody just is hoping this is going to go away and things are going to go back to normal.

00:29:33.000 And it's no different.

00:29:35.000 People have all kinds of personal problems and they just ignore it.

00:29:40.000 You know, for a long time, I was just like, well, you know, tomorrow I'll lose weight.

00:29:44.000 No, next month I'll lose weight.

00:29:46.000 And we just ignore problems and ignore problems and think they're just going to go away without putting the work in.

00:29:52.000 People have been in that mindset that, oh, this is going to go away.

00:29:55.000 It can't be this crazy for this long.

00:29:58.000 And now they're afraid because if you express, oh, you're, they come up with all these words, you're transphobic.

00:30:05.000 You could lose your job.

00:30:07.000 You could get punished at school.

00:30:09.000 You could be in trouble over social media.

00:30:12.000 People could, again, they can go hunt down whatever sin you may have committed.

00:30:17.000 You may have quoted a rap lyric that used the N-word when you were 14 years old and posted it on Twitter.

00:30:25.000 And so you better shut your mouth about the transgender issue because someone may throw that up in a news story and cancel you. 0.86

00:30:34.000 It's a very clever, effective plot that these Satanists have put together. 0.50

00:30:39.000 And again, that's why I just keep saying we as men have to show some courage and say we're drawing a line of sand and we're not going to be silenced and dare people to cancel us.

00:30:52.000 That's exactly right.

00:30:53.000 We give them more power than anything else.

00:30:55.000 If we allow them to control us, especially our thoughts, they're already in control.

00:31:02.000 So, Jason, at times I can't tell what is parody and what is reality.

00:31:06.000 Other people have suffered under this phenomenon where I can't tell if this is a Babylon B story or not.

00:31:13.000 So NBA team forced to apologize for suggesting only women can have babies.

00:31:19.000 Play cut 29.

00:31:20.000 And let me read the Toronto Raptors official response, play cut 29. 1.00

00:31:26.000 Girls run the world because they're the only one that can procreate. 1.00

00:31:30.000 They birth everybody. 0.76

00:31:31.000 All women are great because they're all queens. 1.00

00:31:36.000 Now, that's a short B-roll video. 1.00

00:31:38.000 Basically, they're the only ones that can procreate. 1.00

00:31:41.000 And here was the Toronto Raptors' response.

00:31:44.000 We as an organization pride ourselves on doing the right thing when it comes to inclusion and representation.

00:31:50.000 And we made a mistake.

00:31:52.000 Our sincerest apologies to our players and our staffs and our fans will work to be better every day after Jason.

00:32:01.000 This is the world we live in, Charlie.

00:32:04.000 Charlie, I'm much older than you.

00:32:06.000 I'm 55.

00:32:09.000 I went 45 years, it feels like, without ever hearing the word transphobia, without ever knowing you could be transphobic.

00:32:19.000 And so that didn't exist when I was younger.

00:32:22.000 They've created it and they've thrown this, oh, you don't want to be transphobic.

00:32:26.000 And so anything that they are for, they come up with some kind of negative word to describe if you're against it. 0.96

00:32:37.000 And so the whole world is running around trying not to be transphobic and trying not to say, look, if you got a kid who's a boy with a penis who thinks he's a woman, that kid has a mental problem, not a physical problem. 0.92

00:32:54.000 And you should address that mental issue. 0.96

00:32:57.000 That's the way it was when I was growing up and for throughout most of the history of America.

00:33:04.000 They've come up with a new reality that there's some kind of physical problem.

00:33:08.000 And this all comes down to a do-what thou wilt mentality.

00:33:14.000 Every man will do whatever is right in his own eyes.

00:33:16.000 Yeah.

00:33:16.000 Yes.

00:33:17.000 And whatever you feel, you should do.

00:33:21.000 And that's why at some point they're going to legalize or try to legalize pedophilia.

00:33:27.000 If, oh, you feel like you should have access to a 10-year-old or a 12-year-old, well, that's perfectly normal.

00:33:34.000 That's where this is going.

00:33:35.000 I've been saying that for seven, eight years.

00:33:38.000 When I first started saying it, people were, oh, that's crazy.

00:33:41.000 Don't say that. 0.93

00:33:41.000 Don't say, well, it's here now because again, this Rachel Levine or Ralph Levine that's running around pretending like he's a woman and in the Biden administration, this stuff is crazy, but we're all being cowards. 0.93

00:33:58.000 We're afraid.

00:34:00.000 Many of us are afraid to say that publicly because, you know, there are consequences to that.

00:34:06.000 And look, there are jobs in the mainstream sports media and just media in general that I have abandoned because I'm going to say what I believe.

00:34:19.000 You're not allowed to say these things in the corporate media.

00:34:22.000 That's a sacrifice I'm willing to make in order to stand with God.

00:34:28.000 And if we're not willing to make those sacrifices, we're going to continue to surrender this country.

00:34:34.000 And we have to remember the people that sacrificed their lives, their lives in the Civil War, in world wars, fighting for civil rights.

00:34:46.000 And some of us don't want to deal with a little HR problem or some financial problems for standing on truth, biblical truth.

00:34:57.000 I'm sorry, that's weak.

00:34:59.000 And, you know, when it comes to this whole thing of sexualizing kids and all that other stuff, this is an issue. 0.84

00:35:05.000 And I don't say this jokingly or I don't say it like I'm bragging, but this is an issue worth dying over because we're going to burn in hell for allowing this, for allowing the abuse of these children. 0.57

00:35:20.000 And I don't even have children, Charlie.

00:35:22.000 I just remember how great my childhood was.

00:35:25.000 And I want other kids to have that experience, not this hyper-sexualized world that we're leaving them. 0.72

00:35:33.000 We're going to burn in hell for.

00:35:35.000 Really quick, what did Jesus say that if you allow the predators to come after the infants, it's better for you to have a millstone hung around your neck and go into the deepest bowels of the sea?

00:35:47.000 One of the harshest teachings, actually, of the entire New Testament is what happens if you allow the innocence of children, if you cause one of these little ones to sin.

00:35:55.000 And that was a profound moral advancement, Jason. 1.00

00:35:58.000 The idea that children are valuable and off limits, that's a Christian idea. 0.92

00:36:03.000 And just my final thought, I've asked people all the time, abortion or slavery? 1.00

00:36:08.000 I can't wait to hear God on what he thinks is worse, murdering children or slavery.

00:36:15.000 I think murdering children is worse.

00:36:17.000 Check out Jason Whitlock's podcast, everybody.
