00:02:37.460
there's so much news to cover today we got to get right to it i want to start in texas
00:02:44.420
mckinney texas carmelo anthony he was sobbing in the courtroom yesterday as he was found
00:02:49.700
guilty of murder i want to take you through that story what it means and then i want to talk to
00:02:54.540
you about another knife attack because seems like the whole world is talking about knife attacks
00:02:57.820
the other one happened in belfast in ireland where a now they they can't say for sure
00:03:04.320
they can't say for sure where he's from but they know that he's not from ireland okay okay and they
00:03:15.520
don't know why this guy was trying to behead another guy they have no idea what the motivation
00:03:21.960
might be uh uh okay sure so um we're gonna we're gonna take that on here about the bottom of the
00:03:30.940
hour because uh there seems to be a problem with knives and they have the same root we'll talk
00:03:36.440
about that coming up in just a second first let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour
00:03:40.760
I learned long ago that there are some things in life that you can get away with doing yourself.
00:03:52.240
You can even watch a few videos online and convince yourself that you can replace the garbage disposal.
00:03:58.760
Sometimes it creates a story for your family for years.
00:04:01.080
But there are other things where experience matters.
00:04:03.700
Buying or selling a home is one of them because this isn't about finding a house that you like or putting a sign in the yard.
00:04:10.760
It's about timing, market knowledge, knowing when to push, knowing when to wait, and when to walk away.
00:04:16.240
That's why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
00:04:18.180
It is a network of people who are top sellers in your area and have proven that they know how to work hard and they know what they're doing.
00:04:27.880
We'll show you how to buy, sell a home, even in a tough market.
00:04:36.120
okay let me tell you uh what happened the jury in collin county deliberated for about three hours
00:04:44.940
before finding anthony uh guilty of first-degree murder and the death of 17 year old uh who now
00:04:51.580
has to you know they're now deciding um you know are they gonna are they gonna have a you know
00:04:59.440
retrial are they gonna file an appeal of course they will of course they will and i'll get to
00:05:03.120
that here in a second. This thing is such an unbelievable tragedy. And I was thinking last
00:05:09.260
night, what should we take away from all of this? First, let's look at the deliberation. Happened
00:05:13.260
in about two and a half hours, okay? That tells us the evidence was overwhelming. Two and a half
00:05:18.860
hours. Dozens of witnesses. By the way, the minority makeup of this jury, we think, was about
00:05:26.460
uh a third to half minority okay um now what did they have they had all kinds of video they had
00:05:35.460
body cam footage uh they had witnesses they had the medical examiner's testimony about that single
00:05:42.620
fatal wound to the heart and it wasn't long before the jury just you know there was no murky facts
00:05:48.400
here to debate it was a clear case of escalation a knife brought to a teenage verbal spat under a
00:05:55.720
team tent in a rain delay and there were words a push and a deadly response what they got him
00:06:02.720
with is a law in in texas where uh it was a disproportionate response that's what it was
00:06:10.000
because he was claiming self-defense and they were like yeah you know if anybody pushed anybody
00:06:14.540
you don't stab the guy in the heart jury saw through the narratives uh focused on the truth
00:06:25.600
this is a powerful reminder that facts still matter
00:06:28.320
when good people are willing to weigh them honestly.
00:06:42.020
the defense teams are going to challenge the jury composition
00:06:47.560
despite the racial tensions and all of that stuff.
00:06:54.980
Prosecutors struck jurors for race-neutral reasons like occupations and prior experiences.
00:07:05.560
The appeals court, at least in Texas, they look for legal errors.
00:07:12.640
And the verdict was pretty solid on self-defense, proportional force.
00:07:18.100
okay expect noise but don't bet on a reversal on any of this now what does it mean on the streets
00:07:29.420
because now we have to you know look at that too out on the streets uh some people were trying to
00:07:35.960
light the the fire and get everybody riled up agitators were pushing the you know free carmelo
00:07:42.600
chants and they were accusing people of racism and confrontation. So there was one guy who was
00:07:48.540
standing up against this guy who was just an animal, just an animal, trying just up in this
00:07:54.520
guy's face, just trying to get him to swing. And he didn't. Texans, God bless Texas. They didn't
00:08:05.600
take the bait. But here's what was said on the streets. Now, this one is the first one I'm going
00:08:10.440
play is a a next generation action network president okay so we have the NGOs out in the
0.99
00:08:22.060
street this is Dominique Alexander go ahead but what this process did is shown that black lives
0.63
00:08:28.900
do not matter in Collin County it showed us that time and time in American history it has shown us
00:08:40.900
This trial showed that it put emotions over the law.
00:08:45.840
After Trayvon Martin and so many countless names,
00:08:49.920
it has shown us that black life is not safe in Collin County.
1.00
00:08:55.600
It showed us that they did not listen to the law.
0.87
00:09:01.200
It showed clearly that a judge interfered in this process.
0.93
00:09:05.580
it showed very clearly that a black boy was allowed not one black soul on a jury
00:09:15.140
an all all white jury okay no it wasn't an all white jury it wasn't an all white jury
0.75
00:09:26.840
okay uh it just if you're hispanic you're not white if you're asian you're not white
00:09:41.540
Just makes me so angry listening to these lies that people are,
00:09:51.600
Do you know why the black juror was, the final black juror was dismissed?
0.95
00:09:56.640
Because the final black juror, when asked, can you be neutral,
0.90
00:10:01.460
said and i quote i don't think i could put a black brother in prison well then you can't be
0.94
00:10:10.780
on the jury that wasn't that that was the system protecting the system of fairness you can't be on
00:10:18.960
the jury if you can't look beyond race god what is wrong with people okay now here's some other
00:10:57.100
Carmelo, but as again, as a threat. Listen. Anytime a white man or white child can go and
00:11:04.460
put their hands aggressively on anybody and something like this occur, it's self-defense.
00:11:11.700
It's self-defense. You put your hand on me and see how I respond. What will the Anthony family,
00:11:16.820
what will the people that stand behind the Anthony family do? That's the question you should ask.
00:11:21.200
We're going to stand behind them and we're going to fight. That's what's going to happen.
00:11:24.740
Just like they're doing, Mr. Carvello, guess what?
00:11:27.020
It could be your child, little kids out here, it could be you.
00:11:38.880
Do you teach your child, if somebody grabs them or pushes them,
0.99
00:11:43.460
you reach for a knife and stab them in the heart?
0.99
00:11:48.040
If so, your children should be taken from you.
1.00
00:11:54.740
that's not how a society no society can survive no civilization can survive if it is guerrilla
00:12:06.320
warfare so people were shouting there were tears it was hot but contained no widespread riots no
00:12:16.960
cities burning i think it's because the average person the average african-american
00:12:37.500
Now, maybe North Texas can have some time to heal
00:12:53.000
Austin Metcalf, gone 17, promising athlete, twin brother,
00:12:59.680
His parents and his brother, I mean, his father said,
00:13:02.400
you not only killed my son, you killed the man I used to be.
00:13:12.700
Then the other tragedy is Carmelo Anthony, 19 years old,
00:13:18.500
his life absolutely his future gone because of one choice both sides lose this isn't a victory
00:13:26.480
this is a tragedy so over what over what who wound this kid up who taught him that bringing
00:13:35.740
a knife to a school event was reasonable just in case who filled his mind with the idea that a grab
00:13:42.480
or a push, justified, lethal force that he could escalate, threaten, touch me and see what happens
00:13:49.660
and walk away unscathed. Who taught him that? I'll tell you. Our culture did. The entitlement
00:13:59.240
of grievance did. The glorification of toughness without any wisdom or thinking. The erosion of
00:14:05.700
basic self-control, the erosion of basic respect for other human beings. Before the stabbing,
00:14:14.780
the behavior, refusing to move, the warning, the weapon after flight. Then self-defense claims
00:14:22.900
because there's a media store and that takes a storm and that takes that tragedy into a proxy
00:14:28.940
war. This wasn't inevitable, but it was foreseeable, and it was cultivated.
00:14:40.640
Does this verdict heal the wounds? Probably not, because healing takes truth first. See,
00:14:49.580
people go in, and they have no personal responsibility for anything. I got to tell
00:14:57.760
you. There are people on January 6th that I feel for and those that I don't. There were those who
00:15:05.700
came in with intent. They were violent. They were doing horrible things. Shouldn't have been done.
00:15:15.320
Did they deserve the treatment that they got? Probably not. However, did they deserve some
00:15:20.680
jail time? Yeah. Everybody, all of those people, the grandmas and everybody else, certainly not.
00:15:30.020
But again, our progressive culture tries everybody by class or by group, by race or by voting habits.
00:15:41.060
This needs to be a system of the individual. The good news is this does send a desperately
00:15:50.160
needed message to our kids. Control yourselves or lose everything. Lose control of your impulse,
00:15:58.660
your pride, that little voice whispering inside of you saying, you can't touch me. It has
00:16:04.880
consequences. At least in Texas, it has consequences. Bring a knife to a stupid teenage spat and you
00:16:11.480
don't get to rewrite the story later. You know, everybody thinks accountability is cruel. It's not
1.00
00:16:17.640
cruel it is the guardrail that protects the entire civilization and it redeems the wayward
00:16:25.480
if you don't have accountability there's no redemption this is why i say is it going to heal
00:16:31.820
no probably not because i haven't seen anybody admit what the problem was
00:16:38.220
they just want to make it about race so there's no healing there's never any because there's
00:16:43.800
there's no punishment for the thing that went wrong there's no recognition and so what do you have
00:16:51.680
it's bittersweet because it's bitter because two bright young men
00:17:02.080
uh have had their lives taken from them one innocently the other one took a life but now
00:17:10.300
his life has gone to, and both families are grieving on what could have been. But it's sweet
00:17:17.080
because the truth has prevailed here. Division didn't explode, and perhaps, perhaps, this can
00:17:23.260
stand as a warning that will save other kids from the same path. You see, that is the hope here,
00:17:30.320
that you learn from this, that we as a society show this to our kids, and they learn, wow,
00:17:36.700
I can't get away with that kind of behavior. If we can reject the race-baiting hatred
00:17:42.860
that poisons everything in our society, if we teach our young
00:17:48.080
radical responsibility, courage, and fear of the Lord, honestly, instead of victimhood and
00:17:56.960
vengeance, then maybe we start healing. And not just from this, but from everything else that's
00:18:32.080
let me tell you about simply safe most criminals have something in common they are not lazy well
00:18:39.120
not all of them i mean you know you know uh once in a while you'll read about some international
00:18:45.300
master criminal who spent three years you know planning an elaborate heist you know but most
00:18:51.040
crime isn't like that most criminals are looking for the same thing the the path of least is it
00:18:55.940
resistance. And there is an easy target, the lowest hanging fruit, the home that looks like
00:19:01.820
nobody's paying attention at all. That's why deterrence matters so much. Because the goal
00:19:06.260
of a security system isn't just to help after something bad happens. The goal is to make the
00:19:11.360
bad guy decide he'd rather go someplace else. It is one of the reasons I like SimpliSafe. With
00:19:15.980
active guard outdoor protection, SimpliSafe can help detect threats outside your home before they
00:19:21.200
ever reach your front door. Train agents can see what's happening. They can speak through the
00:19:25.400
system, and they can help intervene in real time. In other words, they let people know that somebody
00:19:30.580
is paying attention, and that changes everything. Right now, you can get 50% off your new system by

Okay, a lot of financial stress comes from the fact that most problems don't show up at all, you know, at least all at once.
00:23:40.840
And they show up a little bit at a time, not one big purchase, dozens of little ones.
00:23:49.880
it's not just one month of carrying a balance. It's a few years of it. And before you know it,
00:23:53.900
you're writing checks every month to pay interest on decisions you barely remember making. And that
00:23:58.020
is the thing about high interest debt. It doesn't feel urgent day to day. It just sits there,
00:24:03.980
quietly taking a bite out of your paycheck every month. That's why you should check out the smart
00:24:09.120
equity loan from American Financing. I know if you have a great loan that you got years ago,
00:24:15.900
and it's really low interest rate, you don't want to reset that, but you can actually use
00:24:21.800
the equity in your house without resetting everything in your mortgage. I want you to go

listening to us in new york city stan welcome glad you're here
00:25:02.320
hey who's this dylan yes it is sir oh pleasure to be speaking with you dude um
00:25:11.420
thank you thanks for taking my call yeah i wanted to comment on your segment you were just doing
00:25:18.500
about the uh the stabbing in texas yeah yeah i just i'm a black guy right and uh you know i just
1.00
00:25:28.040
want to say first of all that you know all black communities don't feel the same i hope people
00:25:33.660
you know yeah it's kind of you know it's weird stan because it's like not all white people think
0.98
00:25:40.580
the same why don't all black people think the same it's stupid i would imagine you know people
0.97
00:25:46.740
tend to group and tend to yes think that that that's the case but it's but it's really not
0.99
00:25:52.560
you know people are individuals you know collectively tell you the truth we're all
00:25:57.200
americans so truthfully and told we all need to stop i love you the ball you know we're all
0.98
00:26:03.560
americans let's just stop the crap it's really ridiculous you know and uh because let me tell
0.99
00:26:09.120
you had that been had that scenario been reversed or it would have been a big it would have been a
0.99
00:26:15.600
you know that would have been a big cabal you know and and you know truthfully just seems like
00:26:22.180
either way it goes the race car is always pulled and that's always an issue you know we but you
00:26:29.340
know what stan i think that you know because i i said i hope that you know what we're seeing are
00:26:35.960
just a few NGOs and a few people, uh, that really don't get it. And I believe because there wasn't
00:26:42.100
a big uprising yesterday in Texas, that that's not the way the black, the majority of the black
00:26:46.660
community feels some do some don't. Um, but you know, maybe we are getting past this. Maybe this
00:26:54.020
is a sign that we're getting past it a little bit. This may be a baby step in the right direction.
00:26:59.980
Thank you, Stan. I appreciate it. Especially hearing common sense coming out of New York
00:27:03.420
City. We have two knife attacks, and that's what everybody is talking about. And these knife
00:27:10.240
attacks, we're not supposed to notice a pattern, I think. We were just talking about in Texas,
00:27:16.800
Carmelo Anthony, convicted of first-degree murder, 35 years for stabbing, verbal spat,
00:27:25.000
we got it. Now, what happens next? Jury took two and a half hours, evidence is clear.
00:27:33.420
But across the ocean, there is another knife attack that everybody's talking about.
00:27:41.020
Just days ago, I don't know if you saw it, it was horrible.
0.99
00:27:44.220
June 8th, a 30-year-old Sudanese asylum seeker, they're still not sure where he's from,
00:27:50.680
but he was charged with attempted murder after a brutal knife attack on a local man in his 40s, Stephen Ogilvy.
00:28:19.180
He's still fighting for his life in the hospital.
00:28:32.420
because it's years of frustration now boiling over.
00:28:47.200
He thinks he's gonna take vengeance on a Muslim.
0.99
00:28:50.200
He kills a sheik because he's wearing a turban
1.00
00:28:54.260
And everybody's like, Bubba, what did you do?
0.87
00:29:30.180
And the world wants to talk about isolated incidents
00:29:46.980
they have erased our borders, erased our history,
00:29:51.300
and punished anybody who dares notice the consequences.
00:29:55.160
We here in America have raised generations now without any clear identity.
00:30:03.320
No moral guidelines, no self-control, no personal responsibility.
00:30:09.520
Race has been weaponized by politicians to divide us instead of uniting us under one creed.
00:30:18.120
So a disagreement over a seat in a tent escalates immediately to murder.
00:30:22.700
We have sown entitlement, we have sown grievance, and we're now reaping the knives in schools and parking lots.
00:30:32.860
In Belfast, across the UK, Europe, same globalist mindset, open the floodgates.
00:30:43.800
Unity is our strength. Coming together, even though we're diverse people, coming together under one principle, that's a strength.
00:30:50.400
imagine having an army and going you know what these guys are all going to do whatever they
00:30:56.100
want they're all from different armies and they're all from different things we're just
00:30:59.160
going to let them do what they want diversity is our strength they'd be slaughtered on the field
0.98
00:31:03.220
then the people who are preaching this garbage to us brand concerned citizens as racist for
0.97
00:31:12.160
pointing out the obvious you know not every arrival comes to assimilate to melt into western
0.97
00:31:17.540
society to respect our laws and customs not every incident is about race we've seen the spikes in
00:31:25.320
knife crime grooming gangs rapes violence authorities that downplay or deny and then
00:31:31.420
accuse the people who are saying wait a minute this is my neighborhood accuse them of being
00:31:35.860
racist and let me just talk about beheadings because i don't know the last time you saw
00:31:40.860
somebody in the street trying to hack somebody's head off but i looked it up england hasn't had
00:31:46.060
beheadings since 1747. We weren't even a country. And the guy that they beheaded was executed for
00:31:55.360
treason. So 1747 was the last time people were beheaded in Great Britain until the mass migration
00:32:04.520
from certain Muslim majority countries brought the ideology and the blades with it. I have now
1.00
00:32:10.620
seen in the last five years two people on the streets of england one was beheaded he was a
00:32:16.800
soldier gee i wonder what that was and now this one where they tried to cut the guy's head off
00:32:22.440
gee and the press is like i don't know we don't know the we don't have a probable cause probable
00:32:29.400
cause probable cause we don't know the cause but you don't know the probable cause i know it was
00:32:40.000
probably rooted in that guy's culture probable cause i mean it could be the cultural class
00:32:50.440
rooted in islamic patterns of violence that have no place in western society that's probable isn't
00:32:57.700
it i mean good enough is enough enough is enough people are rising up because the elites ignored
1.00
00:33:05.580
them for too long if you keep telling people that they are stupid bigoted far right just for
0.98
00:33:12.980
preferring straight safe streets and a coherent community where their children aren't continually
1.00
00:33:20.080
raped and you and and and they just don't want imported chaos because they got enough chaos in
0.93
00:33:28.340
their lives we have enough problems with crime in with with americans we don't need to bring more
0.96
00:33:33.860
people in that are criminals that want to behead people you know towns just didn't slide into
00:33:40.520
third world violence by accident it happened when leaders prioritized open borders and brought the
00:33:48.580
third world in and then they added political correctness over integration and vetting uh
00:33:57.020
i'm telling you britain does not have a civil war yet but you are at the you are at the bubba
00:34:04.200
effect in great britain now and if the elites keep denying reality and blaming the native
00:34:09.120
population instead of confronting failed policies they're lighting the fuse themselves
00:34:14.500
victims are being stabbed here in america nearly beheaded in the streets of uh great britain
00:34:26.040
Aren't these the people that our governments are sworn to protect?
00:34:37.040
Suicide by compassion without any wisdom at all.
00:34:40.760
What do you say we plant the flag deep in the heart of truth?
00:34:51.040
Here in America, self-control and moral clarity are not relics, they're survival.
00:35:06.380
Look at what our society has become over the last 20 years.
00:35:18.140
And I think our children deserve a better future than knife fights.
1.00
00:35:25.780
Our neighborhoods deserve better than imported tribal violence.
1.00
00:35:35.900
All of these things, they provide an opportunity for us to wake up.
00:35:40.320
when people see that guy on the street in Belfast
00:36:21.620
These people are not going to go for a Martin Luther King.
00:36:40.860
then perhaps these tragedies are not going to be in vain
00:37:02.840
standing around just taping it with their phone.
00:37:06.880
you put the phone down now i i understand if it's one person i get it but if there's lots of people
00:37:12.640
standing around why don't you does does no one say hey guys let's stop videotaping or you you
00:37:20.380
videotape so we have it on record and the rest of us let's go stop that guy from being beheaded
00:37:30.700
all we have to do is choose wisely we haven't been doing that lately but i think that time
00:37:36.460
is coming. Quickly. The hour is late, America. Choose wisely. Back in a minute. God is calling
00:37:44.860
you to something bigger than you are maybe prepared for. You'll see it throughout the Bible.
00:37:50.300
Moses didn't think he was the right man. Slow of speech. Gideon didn't think he was. Jeremiah
00:37:54.900
didn't think he was the right man. And again, again, God chooses ordinary people and asks them
00:38:00.020
to do extraordinary things. And usually they're very flawed people. They got a problem, okay?
00:38:06.460
The president and global CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, Yale Eckstein, spoke at Turning Point, at the USA Turning Point Women's Leadership Summit.
00:38:21.020
She described stepping into the leadership role of 34 years after the loss of her father.
00:38:27.760
She was remembering, feeling that you've got the wrong person.
00:38:35.540
God has always called the ordinary, uncertain people to do his work.
0.92
00:38:42.700
because I've seen the work of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews,
00:38:46.500
and it is just people, they're not getting into politics.
00:38:51.120
I don't care if you like Benjamin Netanyahu or not.
00:38:54.100
The Jewish people have a right to not be hunted.
00:39:02.380
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews reflects on the friendship between the United States and Israel.

00:39:41.300
it feels like every conversation about weight loss eventually turns to injections these days i mean
00:39:57.560
you probably heard about all that by now there's a lot of commercials pretty much running around
00:40:01.140
the clock. These results can be dramatic, but for a lot of people, you know, giving themselves a shot
00:40:06.380
every week is suboptimal, you know, along with the potential side effects. It's not something
00:40:11.140
that's really appealing to a lot of people. It's one thing, of course, people do want to lose weight,
00:40:15.980
but, you know, do you really want to go that far? Do you really want to use that? Do you want to
00:40:20.700
stick a needle in yourself to make that happen? Some people love that. Some people are real
0.83
00:40:24.940
needle fiends, but most aren't, I would say. So the real question comes to you when you say like,
00:40:30.820
if I want to keep losing weight, if I want to start losing weight, if I want to maintain weight
00:40:35.440
loss, would I take a different approach? And that's where Lean comes in. Lean is a weight loss
00:40:39.860

and take my kids to Washington, D.C., and I decided, no, I'm not going to take a vacation
00:41:55.960
because the word got out now i'm giving a speech someplace every day uh during the week of fourth
00:42:01.660
of july in washington and i'm i'm just really excited uh to be there to celebrate america's
00:42:07.720
250th birthday um you know what i was thinking you know how we always we we look at our dates
00:42:15.540
differently than they do in england and the rest of the world you know europe it's always they do
00:42:21.300
day month year we do month day year so my birthday february 10th 1964 you know christmas is december
00:42:29.460
25th over there it would be 25th of december um that's the way they do it and we do we do
00:42:36.360
the opposite of them on every single date except one
00:42:40.540
we are month day year except for fourth of july 1776 and i i wonder was that just we was never
00:42:56.780
like no no leave that one day month year leave that one alone we want them to relate to that
00:43:03.060
we don't want them to think first of oh you know these crazy americans they always have a different
00:43:08.260
you know they always are month day year we don't want you even thinking about it we want you super
00:43:13.080
focused on what happened the 4th of july 1776 i don't know i can't think of another reason why
00:43:21.960
that's the only date other than somebody was like yeah let's make sure we say it in their language
00:43:27.040
so they understand it they're very focused on revolution happy 250th if you want to learn more
00:43:35.060
about your country we have the amazing episodes the american story available torch 250.com get
00:43:42.080
them now we're living in a time where it's really easy to forget what this country is actually
00:43:49.040
about how it came to be and we talk about the founders like they just appeared fully formed
00:43:53.740
out of history but that's not how it happened that's why i think young george washington is
00:43:59.620
so important right now this is a film that takes you back before he was president before the
00:44:04.520
revolution was one before george washington was george washington that symbol and it shows you
00:44:10.260
the young man he really was not perfect not polished but somebody who's shaped by failures
00:44:15.760
hard decisions and courage and by a sense that there was something bigger than himself at work
00:44:20.740
great leaders are not created in comfort they're forged when things are hard when stepping forward
00:44:26.720
cost you something with the 250th anniversary of of america right around the corner this is a
00:44:32.920
powerful way to market. Take your family, take your kids, your grandkids, and connect them to
00:44:37.360
the story that started all of this. See Young Washington in theaters July 3rd. Tickets available
00:45:39.480
hello america i want to talk to you a little bit more about what's happening in the world but
00:45:49.160
specifically i want to jump off the uh carmelo anthony story and the the stabbing of austin
00:45:57.820
Metcalf and I want to talk to you about our kids because something is happening in our country to
00:46:04.620
our kids and we all can put our finger near it but if we don't solve this problem quickly we're
00:46:14.240
not going to have anything left to be able to pass to our children and our children won't even
00:46:19.100
understand it when we do. So I'm going to get into that here in a second. First let me talk to you
00:46:22.760
about Z Factor. Your car needs maintenance, your air conditioner needs maintenance, your computer
00:46:27.280
needs maintenance. Every complex machine on Earth eventually needs to be taken offline so somebody
00:46:32.820
can fix it, clean, update, repair something. But human beings, we have the most complex system and
00:46:39.820
machine known in the universe. The human brain. Nah, four hours of sleep should be enough time
00:46:47.280
offline. No, it's really not. And we act surprised when things start getting weird. So I'm such a fan
00:46:52.740
of z-factor it's a sleep supplement from the makers of relief factor and it is designed
00:46:56.760
to help you fall asleep faster sleep more soundly and wake up refreshed because sleep is not a
00:47:02.000
luxury it's maintenance it's the time your body and brain use to do the work that you know they
00:47:07.720
can't do when you're running around during the day you wouldn't expect your car to run forever
00:47:11.700
without any maintenance you probably uh probably wouldn't be fair to expect that from your body
00:47:17.100
either. Give Z-Factor a try right now. Save 46% on your first order. It's $19.95. 30-day supply.
00:47:23.340
Call 1-800-4-RELIEF. 1-800-4-RELIEF. Or visit relieffactor.com. Better sleep, better days.
00:47:29.120
Z-Factor from Relief Factor. All right. So we heard about Carmelo and the stabbing.
00:47:36.940
We've seen our society, our classrooms, our kids just start unhinging and self-mutilating and suicide and all of these things.
00:48:01.120
If you're a parent or a grandparent, I want you to listen carefully here.
00:48:05.140
We are a people that have misplaced our own story.
00:48:08.280
We have lost the thread of who we are and how we got here.
00:48:16.960
And the story they're being fed to replace that is just of grievance and anger and revenge.
00:48:31.860
heck ask them under 30 35 tell me the american story most people can't do it on the last national
00:48:41.320
history exam 13 of eighth eighth graders came out proficient 13 they're in school currently 13
00:48:50.000
four in 10 couldn't clear the bottom bar which was we're going to set a document out in front of you
00:48:56.660
tell us anything about it. They couldn't do it. And you can guess what those documents were,
00:49:02.140
right? The civic scores fell for the first time since they started keeping record in 1998.
00:49:08.400
We are raising a generation that cannot explain the country they're standing in.
00:49:13.180
And it's not just the story that is thinning out. It is everything that used to hold a person
00:49:20.300
in place. Stories, your family, holds you in place. The church holds you in place. A church
00:49:31.760
is used to anchor a town. Fewer than half of us now belong to a congregation. Gallup has its lowest
00:49:37.840
measure since they started asking this question in 1937. Then, friendships, they used to hold you
00:49:46.860
in place. In 1990, 3% of Americans said they had no close friend at all. 3%.
00:49:55.700
No close friend at all. That's now 12%. Since 1990, we didn't drift apart slowly.
00:50:07.380
We hollowed out in one generation. So of course, we're lonely. Surgeon General said
00:50:15.340
that it's an epidemic of loneliness he gave a body count he said isolation does to a person
00:50:22.420
to a human body roughly what smoking 15 cigarettes a day does loneliness
00:50:28.200
now it used to be that the loneliest people in america were the old people not now it's the
00:50:38.540
under 30s. The most wired, the most connected, the most in-touch generation that has ever drawn
0.99
00:50:46.240
breath is also the most alone human beings have ever produced. Hang on just a second. Try to hold
00:50:54.240
all of that in your head at once and then say, what do you think is happening to our kids?
00:50:58.860
no shared story emptied out churches emptied out clubs a friendship drought a loneliness the
00:51:08.520
doctors are calling a health emergency now picture being born into that you don't know
00:51:13.160
all the stuff that you've known in the past picture that country being handed to you one day
00:51:18.960
you don't even know where you are you have no map you have no name for who your people are
00:51:28.860
You just have a screen in your hand and a thousand strangers glad to tell you who you ought to be.
00:51:43.660
And it's exactly why, out of everything I could talk about, I want to talk about them.
00:51:50.900
Because we all know stuff, but we may forget from time to time.
00:51:58.080
We think they do, but try to remember all the things that you used to think about yourself.
00:52:02.700
They're not supposed to know who they are at 19.
00:52:05.520
They're not supposed to know who they are at 16.
00:52:08.060
Certainly not at 11, and that's how young this starts now.
00:52:22.500
and they build it after whatever is reflected back at them.
00:52:27.920
Here's what's changed since we were growing up.
00:52:35.880
Remember, what did your mom used to always say?
00:52:37.600
Show me your friends, I'll show you your future.
00:52:41.380
it was a coach, it was a teacher, it was a pastor.
00:52:50.180
eight or nine hours every day. More waking hours than she spends in any classroom or doing anything
00:52:57.640
else. She's looking at that mirror. It's actually worse than a mirror. The phone, the feed, the
00:53:03.560
algorithm, the shows she watches, the influencers she follows, what she hears at school. This mirror
00:53:10.640
is actually talking back to her, whispering the same question. This is who you are, right? This
00:53:17.640
is who you are this is who you are right now some of that noise is just noise companies trying to
00:53:24.000
sell our things fine we grew up with that as well but some of the voices reaching your kids
00:53:31.500
okay you've got people who know exactly what they're doing
00:53:40.520
they have a vision for who your kid should become they're patient and they didn't ask
00:53:46.740
your permission. They don't care about you. I'm telling you, stop assuming that everything coming
00:53:52.360
through that screen in that classroom door is neutral. It isn't neutral at all. So picture it.
00:53:59.180
A kid, younger than you think, still under construction, swimming in a sea, an ocean
00:54:05.880
of a thousand voices. And then one of those voices steps forward and offers the whole package.
00:54:11.960
finished identity. Here's who you are. Here's your people. Here's your club. Here's what you
00:54:19.620
stand for. Do you understand now how that lands? Why that lands with kids? The kid doesn't feel
00:54:28.020
like they're joining something. They feel like they're finally becoming someone. That's the hook.
00:54:35.400
Oh, you're going to join the club because you're bi or you want to be trans. You're joining a club
0.98
00:54:41.720
and all your friends are there and you're accepted and you're cool and the hook is set into your kid
00:54:49.320
the deepest when your kid is lost when they're cut from the team when they're dumped when they're
00:54:54.260
left out of the group chat when you move to a new town a new schools nobody saved them a seat
00:55:00.080
you know how that feels even at your age when a kid feels invisible a ready-made identity stop
00:55:07.520
becomes attractive and becomes irresistible because they're looking for a shore.
00:55:15.580
And the people I want to warn you about, the determined ones, they know all of this.
00:55:20.440
They're not looking for your kid at their best.
00:55:22.860
They're looking for your kid at his loneliness, the loneliest.
00:55:27.260
Don't kid yourself that the one, my kids, my kids are fine.
00:55:34.960
and here's the other half of this trap you've seen this movie over and over again okay our
00:55:43.220
kids have never seen this movie before we've watched movements rise and fall our whole lives
00:55:47.680
we we know things are going to constantly change we know the smell of it they don't they can't spot
00:55:53.540
the bad movie yet the group that says sure you belong over here but hand your doubt over at the
00:56:01.020
door. Stop questioning. Stop pushing back. That one thing, that one group that promises to
00:56:08.700
transform your kid, and all they have to do is just obey. Just obey. Just fit in. That's the
00:56:17.580
bind. The pull is stronger on the young. The danger is harder for them to see. And the recruiters now
00:56:24.980
have to not go out and search everywhere. They just find the recruit right there. It's in their
00:56:34.380
pocket. Your gut might say, make a list. Good groups are here. Bad groups are here. Block this
00:56:44.660
app. Ban that channel. Switch schools. Look, you use your judgment. You're the parent. You know
00:56:49.840
your kids, but you're not going to be able to list your way out of this. Some of these movements are
00:56:55.420
harmless. Some are propaganda. Some are extraordinarily dangerous. Your kid's vulnerability
00:57:02.640
is identical for all of those categories because the weakness was never in the movement.
00:57:10.380
The weakness is in the normal, unfinished kid and the normal, lonely moment that is now not normal
00:57:18.260
or it's becoming normal at epidemic proportions.
00:57:36.020
First one, give them a place where they belong.
00:57:42.300
where they can sit and disagree and it's allowed.
00:57:56.700
Question with boldness, even the very existence of God forever.
00:57:59.420
Be a God, he'd must surely rather honest questioning over blindfolded fear.
00:58:05.880
Because if the only place you're offering your kid belonging is a place that demands their silence,
00:58:14.680
And when they're hurting, when they've gone quiet and pulled away, that's not a moment to give them space.
00:58:24.000
That's the moment to move towards them because somebody's going to fill that void in your kid.
00:58:37.800
Talk to them like they're adults because they understand a lot more.
00:58:41.960
if anyone ever tells you that you have to stop doubting in order to belong run run from them
00:58:50.920
if they promise that they will transform you and all that you have to do for payment is be compliant
00:58:57.940
that's the tell tell them this now before they need it because they will need it if they haven't
00:59:06.080
already. And when they do, you need them to be able to recognize it on sight. You cannot bubble
00:59:13.000
wrap your kids. You can't vet every voice that reaches them. That world is long gone. But you
00:59:20.400
can make sure that when they walk out your door, their eyes are wide open and they have a home
00:59:26.220
worth coming back to. Listen to your kids. Encourage them to question. Even you. Oh,
00:59:36.080
it's going to be so hard. I hated the teenage kids. I hated the teenage years with my kids.
00:59:42.260
I hated it. But they are, you know, God is just a genius. Do you know why our kids get so nasty
00:59:51.360
when they're teenagers because god needs them to find out who they are and they can't do it
00:59:59.600
if they're living with you and they're 20 so there's this natural thing that says i just
0.99
01:00:06.780
you don't know anything you're stupid that's good that's good you want them to have that
0.98
01:00:14.260
because that means they're questioning everything
1.00
01:00:40.360
that you are a place where they can tell you anything
01:00:44.120
and believe me my my son and my daughter have told me things that i'm like oh my gosh don't react
01:00:53.920
don't react you're right you ever had a kid tell you anything like that where you're like oh oh
01:00:58.440
okay yeah that's that's no big deal and inside you're like ah don't react that way okay all right
01:01:06.320
i understand that i need some time can i think on that let's talk about that some more that's
01:01:10.000
really interesting. I'm glad you told me that. No, I'm not inside. No, I'm not. I didn't want
01:01:15.020
to know that. I didn't want to know that. Yes, you do, because they are so lonely.
01:01:21.480
They are looking on who they are. If you can't help them find safe places to help, my father
01:01:29.000
said to me when I was young, I've said this a million times, son, the two most powerful words
01:01:34.240
in any language is I am, and it's usually followed by a blank. I am blank. I am happy.
01:01:42.380
I am sad. I am a monster. I am worthless. I am great. Whatever it is, I am is usually followed
0.98
01:01:50.200
with a blank. And if you don't fill that in, I'll never forget the way he said it. He leaned into me
01:01:55.920
and he said, believe me, there are all kinds of people that are just waiting to fill it in for you.
01:02:04.240
You make the choice on what you fill that blank with and be very careful because that's who you
01:02:12.340
will be. Share that with your kids. More in just a second.
01:02:19.980
You know, I love working with companies who not only provide the highest level of service,
01:02:23.760
but also are on the same page as I am on moral issues. I mean, you don't have to agree on
01:02:27.580
everything, but moral issues, I don't know. And it's increasingly rare, but one of my favorite
01:02:31.880
companies is Patriot Mobile because we agree on big issues. Their goal isn't just to give you a
01:02:38.160
cheaper, better experience with a cell phone company, which they do every day, but they also
01:02:43.140
stand with you in defense of our American liberties and values. They are America's, I believe, the
01:02:48.860
world's only Christian conservative wireless provider. They don't send your hard-earned money
0.99
01:02:54.100
to aid in the destruction of America or to abort babies. They work for conservative causes, not
01:02:59.920
against them, and I mean the big ones, all of the Bill of Rights, that kind of stuff, okay?
01:03:05.700
All the while, they're giving you the same great nationwide service, and you're supporting a
01:03:12.120
company that loves America and shares your values and supports the police and first responders as
01:03:16.320
well. Switching is incredibly easy, and it's kind of rewarding. It's good to know. I'm getting great
01:03:23.000
mobile service. I'm paying less. I'm getting everything that I need, and I'm helped build
01:03:28.880
the country, not destroy the country. Go to PatriotMobile.com slash Beck. Make the switch

you know i i told you at the beginning of this uh hour i said you know we don't know we don't
01:04:18.140
have a story anymore. We don't know our story without a story. That is what human beings
01:04:23.000
search for. That's how we understand the world through stories. And it gives us meaning,
01:04:29.080
gives our life meaning and purpose. And that's, they're looking to make a difference.
01:04:33.420
They want to join something that is good, that will make the world a better place.
01:04:39.080
I so urge you to listen either on the podcast, you can available anywhere, or you can get it
01:04:45.240
commercial free and they're way ahead. We have episode one through 15, uh, episode 11 through
01:04:50.040
15, uh, drop this morning, uh, for torch insiders. And it is the American story. It's based on the
01:04:57.800
book written by David Barton. If you haven't gotten the book, you should, uh, David Barton,
01:05:01.540
the American story. Um, and Nathan Nipper, one of my best historians and writers on the staff,
01:05:11.100
It takes us literally, I mean, we've spent thousands of hours on those 15 episodes.
01:05:20.280
Because if I heard, if I would have heard history like that when I was young, I would have loved history.
01:05:26.420
And if you're listening to it, especially if you're taking a vacation or something, you're driving across the country or you're just in the car with them every day.
01:06:07.100

01:06:18.560
You won't believe how much is there for you, your family, and your kids.
01:06:22.620
Paid for by SuperSure Insurance Agency, LLC, a licensed insurance agency.
01:06:27.300
Running a business is, I don't know, a little like juggling,
01:06:32.260
but juggling chainsaws on a trampoline during an earthquake on a good day.
01:06:44.040
A problem you never saw coming suddenly demands your full attention,
01:06:47.320
and you have no idea if your coverage is complete.
01:06:50.540
That's why it's a good idea to have the insurance part figured out before you need it,
01:06:56.340
They make it easy to get coverage that your business needs
01:06:59.280
without making you feel like you need a law degree.
01:07:04.940
I don't have time to wait on the phone for the insurance agency to answer a question.
01:07:27.600
You're going to love this, especially if you're a small business owner or HR or whatever.
01:07:34.940
Don't just read history, experience it with the American Story Series at glennbeck.com slash torch.
01:07:43.800
i want to talk to you i want to make sure that i get uh i want to sure that i get
01:08:05.060
this absolutely right because i want to talk to you about sorry just finishing up some research
01:08:10.340
But I want to make sure I get this absolutely right because what's happening in California is dangerous and there is a – if you can be reasonable and you can listen without the lens of your tribe, there's a way to an answer here.
01:08:34.860
but nobody seems especially on the left nobody seems to want to actually fix the problem because
01:08:42.300
the problem even if it is just perception that is as bad as if it is happening okay and so what do
01:08:50.240
they want to do they want to shut you up on saying hey this is well that's not going to work that is
01:08:55.020
not going to work that makes things worse so Gavin Newsom stood at a podium last month and he signed
01:09:00.760
a bill that said fines and jail time three years if you are interfering with the election now listen
01:09:09.520
i'll be more fair to him than he would ever be with me um this particular uh penalty is aimed
01:09:16.940
at people who physically walk off with boxes of ballots listen to the language around it
01:09:22.400
governor wrote a letter telling his officials to count fast so the election lies don't take whole
01:09:27.640
so stop and think about that for a second wait a minute chief executive of the largest state in
01:09:33.640
the union has appointed himself the man who decides which doubts are lies and in the same
01:09:40.600
season his allies pass a provision that tells election observers they may no longer challenge
01:09:47.140
the signatures on the ballot they're watching get counted so they didn't criminalize your doubt
01:09:54.280
they did something quieter. They turned down the lights in the room where the counting happens,
01:09:59.200
and you're told it's a conspiracy theory to ask, why did it get dark? So there's two things going
01:10:05.740
on here, and possibly really bad fraud, but there's something that you have to know about this.
01:10:14.620
This is, to me, this is the most important thing about the ballots.
01:10:19.000
the government cannot ever ever no matter who's in charge donald trump uh gavin newsom satan
01:10:29.460
god whatever the government can never be the arbiter of truth ever
01:10:36.600
especially when the question on the table is about the government itself
01:10:42.160
you cannot let the accused run the evidence room what's happening you're accusing california
01:10:50.800
of having fraud and what do they do they say no we're in charge right you're the one that
01:10:58.740
everybody's saying is causing the fraud and they're saying no you can't question because
01:11:03.100
there's no fraud that doesn't help anything this is not a conservative idea or liberal idea
01:11:07.760
it's just how you keep a free people free you cannot have the accused or the government in
01:11:14.620
charge and the arbiter of the truth we tried this i've mentioned this a couple of times in the last
01:11:20.340
couple of weeks 1798 we did it right at the start the ink on the constitution was just barely even
01:11:24.940
dry congress passed the sedition act made it a federal crime to publish false and scandalous
01:11:31.820
and malicious writing about the government okay well that sounds reasonable you don't want false
01:11:37.360
things out there well who's who's for false information right nobody but who decides what's
01:11:45.640
false the people who decided turned out to be the politicians being criticized and they jailed
01:11:52.920
newspaper editors they jailed sitting congressman his name was matthew lyon for a crime of writing
01:11:58.400
that the president had an unbounded thirst for ridiculous pomp i think i've seen that before
01:12:05.880
Thomas Jefferson comes into office and he looks at what they've built and he pardoned everybody
0.60
01:12:11.460
that they had sent to jail he understood a government cannot define the lie if you're the
01:12:19.000
one being accused of being the liar do you know this do you know the famous line you can't
01:12:25.240
shout fire in a crowded theater okay every time somebody says oh there's not freedom of speech
01:12:47.860
Schneck was a guy who was handing out pamphlets telling other men that they had a right to oppose being drafted in World War I.
01:12:57.040
every the line that every single person uses to limit speech was written to jail a guy for
01:13:05.020
protesting his government what that's the company you keep when you start drawing these lines
01:13:13.380
took 50 years to fix it 1969 brandenburg versus ohio court finally drew the line where it belongs
01:13:20.580
and drew it razor thin the case was all about a guy who said about he was talking about the draft
01:13:27.420
He's talking about the draft, and he said, you give me a gun,
0.99
01:13:29.620
and I'll tell you the first person I'll shoot is the president, okay?
0.97
01:13:34.500
He was arrested, blah, blah, blah, for making threats.
01:13:42.640
They said, unless this actually is inciting imminent lawless action
01:13:50.400
or is very likely to produce imminent lawless action,
01:14:30.000
That's why we're doing the summer of education,
01:14:46.860
you're not exercising free speech you're exercising four of the freedoms that are guaranteed
01:14:55.000
the right to speak the right to print it or have the press report on it the right for people to
01:15:02.780
assemble and then comes the one that we always forget the right to petition the government for
01:15:07.620
redress of grievances we have a right in the first amendment that says i can go to the government
01:15:13.520
say, I don't believe you. I want to see this fixed. I want to see the reason. Show me the proof.
01:15:20.720
You have a right to do that. So four out of the five in the First Amendment exist for this exact
01:15:27.600
moment. A citizen who looks at the machinery of power and says, prove it to me. Only one of the
01:15:34.380
five in the First Amendment, the free exercise of religion, sits this one out. Four out of the five.
01:15:40.660
the founders didn't protect questioning the government as an afterthought they built four
01:15:47.960
separate doors into the first amendment okay so let me be really careful and very clear
01:15:55.140
because this is where you earn credibility being honest i am telling you right now i cannot
01:16:03.520
verify or deny that there is widespread fraud in california there is mounting evidence
01:16:10.560
and it looks like there is fraud enough to change the election, I don't know.
01:16:15.720
But neither does anyone yelling that there is or there isn't fraud.
01:16:21.860
I'm telling you, be the honest person in saying,
01:16:24.800
I don't know what the extent is, but it must be investigation.
01:16:40.560
If there are real questions about signatures being gathered in places where vulnerable people can't consent, and, I mean, have you seen the videos?
01:16:50.400
For heaven's sake, investigate it in the open and let the chips fall where they may.
01:16:55.200
The remedy for a doubt has always been the same.
01:17:00.320
Count the ballots honestly in a room with very bright lights and both sides watching.
01:17:07.080
you answer a question with an answer you don't answer a question with a threat
01:17:14.880
because once you decide you can round people up for the wrong opinion or the wrong question
01:17:21.340
you'll never stop it's the same the machinery is the same every time and it doesn't care who's
01:17:27.380
running it this week we watched mobs decide guilt by accusation the me too we watched a whole country
01:17:35.280
told the questioning of official line on a vaccine
01:17:52.080
the same people calling you a conspiracy theorist
01:18:04.940
I can't tell you that it's happening or it's not happening.
01:18:16.440
that a certain question is too dangerous to ask
01:18:22.100
you've learned everything you need to know about that person.
01:18:35.620
They turn on the lights and they hand you the clipboard.
01:18:39.400
I mean, honestly, if this was all fair, what would you do?
01:18:48.460
Guys, guys, when you're done, send all your paperwork over here.
01:18:51.720
So, and you can talk to anybody in the room because we want it to be as fair as you do.
01:18:56.840
Anyone who'd rather take the clipboard away and dim the lights down in the room
01:19:03.860
And you know, our biggest problem with our society
01:19:27.080
And I think that's the way most Americans feel.
01:19:29.080
But this has all been whipped up into a frenzy.
01:19:34.140
And I don't think anybody has the actual answer.
01:19:38.260
I think, I don't know, we owe it to the future and to our country and to our founders and all of the millions that have died to protect this country.
01:19:48.440
A look-see, an honest view into what is actually happening.
01:19:59.100
But I don't know if it's enough to change the outcome of elections.
01:20:04.440
And I think that they have changed the laws so much that some of the stuff they're doing that you and I think should be illegal is perfectly legal in California.
01:20:13.360
I think we should have a list of all of those things.
01:20:15.340
I think we should have an honest conversation about what's actually happening.
01:20:22.580
and then an accounting of all the people that they have arrested
01:20:32.500
That's only fair and right if you actually believe in a stable country.
01:20:38.680
Every generation has a few things they take for granted.
01:20:41.060
My grandparents took for granted that if you wanted to talk to somebody,
01:20:48.140
And suddenly, you know, you could reach anybody anytime from anywhere.
01:20:53.740
The problem with magic is after a while, you forget it's magic and you start assuming it'll always be there until the battery dies.
01:20:59.680
I mean, how many times have you been in an airplane and you can't get a signal or you can't watch something on your phone or your laptop and you're like, I'm up 25,000 feet or 30,000 feet in the air.
01:21:10.500
I'm traveling at 700 miles an hour and I can't watch this and stream it on Netflix.
01:21:20.340
There is no digging through apps, no did you get my text,
01:21:25.400
an instant communication with the people that you want to talk to.
01:21:29.080
The thing I love about them is they come ready right out of the box
01:21:31.880
because sometimes best technology isn't the most complicated.
01:21:35.080
It's the technology that lets you stop thinking about the technology
01:21:40.420
This damn camera didn't come with instructions.
0.99
01:21:46.860
I've got to go online and try to figure out how to use this camera.
01:21:53.320
I've not used a camera like that in a long time.
01:22:01.040
They ship fast from their headquarters in Michigan.
01:22:11.680
Your town's full of folks who'd help you move a fridge.
01:22:29.580
There are only so many dad gifts available in the world before everything gets just a little bit repetitive.
01:22:35.780
At a certain point, every father in America owns enough novelty grilling aprons,
01:22:40.140
socks with the tiny golf clubs on them, and the coffee mugs with those hilarious, sarcastic
01:22:46.480
Those are all great, of course, but I would say food, better option, especially the food
01:22:52.160
is really, really good, and that brings me to Kexi.
01:22:56.040
Kexi has a special Father's Day cookie box available right now with six gourmet cookies
01:23:00.820
baked fresh and shipped everywhere nationwide, and these things look absolutely insane in
01:23:08.580
One of their featured cookies is their peanut butter marshmallow flavor combines a warm
01:23:13.140
peanut butter, melted chocolate, and gooey marshmallow into something that honestly sounds
01:23:17.880
less like a cookie and more like a controlled substance.
01:23:24.620
It's kind of tastes like an entire summer camping trip condensed into dessert form.
01:23:28.960

01:24:58.880
you have to build your life i was talking about i am blank you know i i i had to sit down and write
01:25:04.620
a mission statement for The Torch, and I want to share it with you because, I mean, it is really
01:25:09.760
almost my personal mission statement, too. We are dedicated to the light of truth that was revealed
01:25:15.080
by God, the moral law written on the hearts of men and affirmed in the Judeo-Christian tradition.
01:25:21.020
We seek to live and teach what is honest, virtuous, benevolent, and pure, defending truth with courage,
01:25:27.460
speaking it with integrity, and serving others in love. We honor what is noble and enduring.
01:25:33.760
We believe that character produces liberty, that virtue sustains civilization, and that faith gives life meaning and hope.
01:25:43.020
Whatever is righteous, whatever is excellent or praiseworthy, we will seek it, we will elevate it, and we will embody it so that the light of truth may endure in our time and for generations to come.
01:25:57.860
That is my personal mission and the mission of the torch.
01:26:01.040
And I would love to ask you to join us on that as we start in our summer of education, our summer of 250.
01:26:09.500
We today released the next five episodes of The American Story.
01:26:15.660
Do you know anything about the terrorist John Brown?
01:26:25.680
And he is a great example of the ends justify the means.
01:26:32.540
And if you've not understood when I say that all the time and say, look, you become that which you despise, you need to know the John Brown story.
01:26:41.400
And that is in one of the new episodes that's just been released today.
01:26:44.680
Episodes one through I think 15 are out now, all commercial free.

01:27:20.460
feel disconnected without ever announcing itself you're still in the room you're still nodding
01:27:25.440
along still showing up but you're working a lot harder just to keep up and sometimes you're
01:27:31.180
guessing more than you'd like to admit and you're just hoping don't ask me anything because i don't
01:27:35.520
know what we're talking about anymore uh what stops a lot of people from doing anything about
01:27:40.260
it is not denial it's the process it's the doctor appointments the multiple visits the adjustments
01:27:56.820
It is an over-the-counter hearing aid designed to be straightforward and approachable without prescriptions or complicated setups.
01:28:03.780
The charging case has a simple touch screen, lets you adjust the volume and modes without the tiny little buttons or a learning curve.
01:28:58.760
The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
01:29:13.900
Well, let me tell you a little bit about temptation, and it's not the temptation that, you know, is sin.
01:29:20.320
It is the temptation of winning what happened in Maine yesterday, and I'm going to give you three warnings because Plattner won, and he may win in the general.
01:29:35.380
I don't know, but the Democrats need it to be able to take over the Senate, and so I want to give you three warnings on this.
01:29:46.260
The good news is there are a ton of Medicare options available to you right now.
01:29:49.800
The bad news is there are a ton of Medicare options available to you right now.
01:29:53.620
And if you've ever tried to sort through them, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
01:29:56.700
It's a little like walking into a grocery store and trying to buy a jar of peanut butter
01:30:01.720
and discovering that there are 47 different kinds.
01:30:04.220
There's crunchy, there's smooth, there's natural, there's organic, honey roasted, low sodium.
01:30:08.360
At some point, you stop feeling empowered by all of these things.
01:30:11.280
You're like, can somebody just tell me which one's the best peanut butter?
01:30:14.220
That's how a lot of people feel about Medicare.
01:30:16.860
There are so many plans, so many different options, and so many variables that it feels easy to be overwhelmed.
01:30:24.540
Their advisors can look at a wide range of plans from different carriers and help you find the one that fits your specific situation.
01:30:31.220
Because the goal is to find the right one for you.
01:30:44.160
So last night in Maine, Democratic Party got the candidate.
01:31:02.400
And he beat the establishment's own recruit, Janet Mills.
01:31:07.860
He beat her so thoroughly that she quit the race weeks before the votes even were counted.
01:31:15.260
That means 20% of Democrats voted for a hat that is not going to be the senator over this guy.
01:31:23.520
And now he is the nominee, the official nominee for the Democrats against Susan Collins.
01:31:28.160
Collins is the only Republican senator that is sitting in a state that did not vote for Donald Trump.
01:31:33.440
For Democrats trying to take back the Senate, Maine is the doorway.
01:31:50.320
That is the death head that the SS wore on their caps
0.58
01:31:57.460
That's how, I mean, if you were a member of the SS,
01:31:59.680
that's why you went to prison most likely afterwards
01:32:02.200
because you had the tattoo and everybody knows it.
01:32:06.680
And that is happening. They're turning a blind eye to that at a time when this just happened on the subway in New York.
01:32:16.860
Listen to what this woman said to another woman who she just, I guess, assumed was Jewish.
01:32:31.800
Jews are eating kids. It's okay for her to eat children, but I can't choke her out. At least
1.00
01:32:50.200
there were some sane people on the subway with her, but we're entering insane times. You don't
01:32:57.100
mess with this. Then let's look at the old posts. There was a report in the New York Times. Remember
01:33:03.320
the New York Times, their paper, not ours, which, uh, three women who used to be in relationships
01:33:08.620
with him described the behavior they called toxic and unsettling. One of them said that he
01:33:14.540
physically restrained her in a room until she was in his word, calm. You're not leaving until you're
01:33:22.500
calm. Wow. And the party is lining up behind him. This is the me too party. So yes, he's done these
01:33:30.580
things, but I mean, he can win. He can win. The stakes are too high. I mean, yes, he's done these
01:33:37.320
things, but you know, this time it's different. No, no, no. Remember what I told you last week,
01:33:41.800
everything you say before the word, but is what your principles are, what you believe
01:34:17.560
So let me start with the political one. And I want to aim right back at, you know, the Republicans first, because, you know, the only way you can gain trust with people is when you aim at your own side first.
01:34:29.340
So let me do that. Republicans, they have walked into the same fire and the same trap over and over and over again, and they get burned every single time.
01:34:41.320
Party rallied around a man drowning in allegations because the seat mattered.
01:34:54.600
Two winnable seats in 2012 thrown into the ditch, not over policy, but over the candidate.
01:35:01.840
the insurgent who knocked off the electable guy in the primary and then just lost in the general
01:35:07.980
and just went away 2020 mitch mcconnell sorry 2022 mitch mcconnell stood up and said the quiet
01:35:14.800
part out loud he said it was candidate quality and i don't like mitch mcconnell but he's right
01:35:19.740
he admitted his own voters had handed the other team a majority by nominating people who couldn't
01:35:25.800
close the deal. There's a body of research behind this. A scandal stain or an extreme nominee
01:35:35.100
reliably runs behind in what a plain generic candidate of the same party would have gotten
01:35:41.680
in the same state. I don't know if it's going to happen in Maine, but the party always tells
01:35:46.100
itself the movement's energy. It's going to outrun the baggage, but the baggage wins the
01:35:50.960
race almost every time okay that's the political warning and it's bipartisan and it's earned the
01:35:58.060
seat you believe you cannot afford to lose is the exact seat you're most likely you're most tempted
0.98
01:36:04.060
to likely throw away because need makes you stupid and you'll talk yourself into a candidate
0.99
01:36:12.100
you would have laughed out of the room a year ago when the stakes felt smaller okay now here's the
0.99
01:36:18.820
second warning and this one's harder because it's not about strategy it's about the soul
01:36:23.880
for a decade one word has been used it's an it is an artillery shell that has been fired by the
01:36:32.900
american left over and over and over again and that shell is nazi it's been pointed at parents
01:36:41.920
at school boards it's been pointed at catholics anyone who wouldn't get in line for their political
0.65
01:36:48.320
their political viewpoint they've been called a nazi okay it's like this universal solvent
01:36:54.840
pour it on your opponent and you never have to argue with them again because you don't debate
01:36:59.480
nazis you destroy them right i have seen good people get that label welded to their foreheads
01:37:07.740
for the crime of just disagreeing and now the people who have used that as a shell
0.96
01:37:13.140
made that word its sword is wait what you're you you got a guy who has a death head tattoo
01:37:22.220
covered it up after he but he's he stands accused by women who knew him and called him frightened
01:37:28.880
frightening controlling and he's got a death head wait what and you're swallowing it what happened
01:37:35.340
to the artillery shell they're doing it because he's useful when you excuse your own people in
0.57
01:37:41.240
what you damned in everyone else, you've just confessed that your use of Nazi was never a
01:37:47.940
principle. You're not actually worried about Nazis. You use that as a weapon and that's it.
0.81
01:37:54.540
A principle is something you hold even when it costs you the election. A weapon is something
01:38:00.700
you drop the second it gets too heavy to swing. A movement that figures out it can do this,
01:38:08.620
That virtue is just a tool you pick up to hit the other guy and set down when it's inconvenient.
01:38:14.280
That movement loses its soul long before it ever loses the vote.
01:38:20.620
That's why you have the problem with the Democratic Party.
01:38:22.960
They don't have anything they actually believe in except win.
01:38:30.720
The temptation to weaponize your own goodness, that's human, not partisan.
01:38:37.600
And the day we start excusing our own side, that's the day to be afraid.
01:38:42.920
Because the day we've become the thing we've warned everyone about is the last day for us, too.
01:38:49.520
Democrats just went through this with Eric Swalwell.
0.97
01:38:57.300
The minute he stopped being useful, and they think they're going to do this with Plattner,
01:39:01.600
the minute he becomes no longer a use, they think he can get rid of.
0.72
01:39:06.380
But, you know, remember, with Nazis, they've tried that before and it didn't work.
0.64
01:39:12.140
The third warning, this one goes back 2,400 years to Athens.
01:39:17.740
I want to tell you about a guy you probably have never heard of.
01:39:36.380
picture this guy. Charismatic. Think of him as the most charismatic you've ever met, and then
01:39:44.400
multiply it, because he's also beautiful. He's famously rich. He's brilliant. He's brave in
01:39:50.360
battle. He was a student of Socrates. The two of them had saved each other's lives on the battlefield,
01:39:56.660
and when he shows up at the Olympic Games, he didn't just enter one chariot team. He entered
01:40:03.060
seven and he took first place second place and fourth place in front of all of greece just to
01:40:11.380
make the point no one alive can touch me so athens sees this guy and they're like this guy is
01:40:17.900
fabulous he's great he's the future and they were right to be dazzled he really was that good
01:40:23.460
but that's also what made him so dangerous because a mediocre man you can dismiss a brilliant one
01:40:35.520
So at the moment, people decide it needs a man.
0.67
01:40:41.700
and that is the ability to judge him and dismiss him.
01:40:45.200
So this guy goes in, and he is talking to Athens,
01:40:55.660
And you all know you never take on the Sicilians.
01:41:01.020
And he sends it across the sea to conquer Syracuse.
01:41:14.620
But on the eve of the fleet's departure, Athens wakes up and they find across the whole city in the dark,
01:41:21.700
somebody had gone around smashing all the sacred statues, the urms, whatever they are.
01:41:34.720
Suspicion fell on this guy and his fast crowd, and they knew it was him.
01:41:40.840
His enemies were clever, but that didn't stop him from sailing.
01:41:48.020
So they let him go and then recalled him to stand trial, knowing that they had him.
01:41:57.400
Rather than come home and face Athens, he defects, and he defects to Sparta.
01:42:04.640
That's the enemy of Athens, and he didn't just sit there.
01:42:08.920
He handed Sparta the playbook to destroy his own city.
01:42:15.960
Fortify this position in our territory, he says.
01:42:21.960
The great Sicilian expedition, his idea, ended in total annihilation.
01:42:37.260
The man that Athens had needed so badly authored their own death.
01:42:44.440
Now, you'd think that would be the end of it, but it wasn't.
01:42:49.860
they still found him useful he wears out his welcome in sparta because that's what these guys
01:42:58.040
do he was reportedly i guess seducing the spartan king's wife and then he fled to persia and then
01:43:04.380
astonishingly athens takes him back the fleet recalls him he won them some victories he sails
01:43:12.780
home in 407 and he's a hero didn't you just turn and yeah then the first time for the first time
01:43:23.880
things go wrong on his watch and they turned on him again and he went into exile again and he died
01:43:30.200
in a foreign land with his house in flames all around him murdered some say at the request of
01:43:39.360
Why am I telling you this story that happened in 407?
01:43:43.260
Because the warning that history is handing the Democratic Party this week, it's handing
01:43:50.280
this lesson and warning to all of us, because none of us is too good to need the warning
01:44:03.920
It fell because it could not stop reaching for the talented man that they had every reason not to trust, but they had to win.
01:44:20.340
They never trusted him, never enough to follow him safely, and so he did the worst possible thing.
01:44:28.280
it used him again and again and then the using is what got them all killed so when a party stands
01:44:36.920
out front of a flawed but dazzling candidate whispering to itself he's the only one that can
01:44:42.860
win stakes are so high this time it's different understand this has happened over and over and
01:44:49.040
over again in history this is not a moment of strength this is the precise sound a civilization
01:44:55.820
makes right before it decides that the man it can't afford to trust is the man it can't afford
01:45:03.060
to lose. The statues came down the night in Athens, but they let him go anyway because they
01:45:10.640
needed him to win. Listen to me carefully. Watch what gets covered up in the night and watch who
01:45:22.080
sales him anyway. They are destructive. All right, back in a minute. Let me tell you about
01:45:29.940
LifeLock. If you wanted to steal somebody's identity 20 years ago, you had to put in some
01:45:34.940
effort. You apparently would just wait sooner or later. Some company you've done business with
01:45:39.700
gets hacked and suddenly your personal information is completely exposed. Case in point, Carnival
01:45:44.280
Corporation, world's largest cruise company, they just confirmed a data breach affecting nearly
01:45:49.340
six million people. And hackers got in, they sold the names, the addresses, the email addresses,
01:45:54.860
phone numbers, dates of birth, even the driver's license and passport numbers.
01:45:58.920
That's a real problem. Now, you can be incredibly careful and you still end up exposed because
01:46:04.820
somebody else got hacked. That's why I recommend LifeLock. LifeLock monitors hundreds of millions
01:46:10.260
of data points every second for identity threats, and they'll alert you if something suspicious is
01:46:15.720
detected. And if you do become a victim of identity theft, you'll get your own restoration
01:46:21.460
specialist to help fix the problem. Guaranteed or your money back. So join now. Save up to 30%

an event in Haiti that most people don't know anything about, and it changed us as well as
01:47:44.600
the world listen to this a cup catches the blood and is passed around one by one the participants
01:47:52.380
take a drink and make a vow of vengeance against their white oppressors there is no turning back
01:48:00.140
now as later recorded by a french doctor one of these runaway slaves recalled the words that
01:48:13.500
Tomorrow night, all the whites are to be exterminated.
1.00
01:48:24.380
leaving the whites no refuge or hope of salvation.
0.95
01:48:39.420
Just days later, the spark turns into an inferno.
01:48:57.860
Over the next month, 800 plantations burn to the ground.
01:49:18.760
look, that's kind of what's happening here in America.
01:49:24.960
That kind of vengeance does not ever turn out well.

01:51:39.020
attempted beheading in belfast and what that means to us uh but i want to start with the
01:51:44.160
reflecting pool i am so sick and tired of hearing people say this is the worst there you know there's
01:51:51.040
only two opinions here that i keep seeing with mainstream media and that is what donald trump
01:51:58.780
has done to the reflecting pool is the worst well first of all you've had two presidents spend
0.77
01:52:03.940
millions of dollars trying to fix that damn thing and it keeps leaking and so they couldn't fix it
0.99
01:52:08.960
why because they don't know what the hell they're doing they don't know their ass from their elbow
0.99
01:52:12.380
when it comes to fixing things when it comes to construction products uh projects donald trump
0.97
01:52:18.640
knows exactly what he's doing that's why the the white house uh ballroom it's got to be built by
01:52:24.540
him it has to be built by him he knows what he's doing stop with this nonsense all right the
01:52:32.520
reflecting pool it's either uh it's the ugliest thing i've ever seen or the other headline is
01:52:40.740
10 million dollars and it looks the same well which one is it which one is it the trump
01:52:48.080
derangement syndrome is so crazy first of all he fixed it it wasn't about making it look nicer
01:52:54.000
he fixed it let's see if it lasts because the last two presidents that tried to fix it it didn't last
01:53:00.040
let's see if it lasts i'll bet you it lasts okay and this goes to what he's done to washington
01:53:06.660
and cleaning up and now he's going in to what is it penn station and saying that he wants to clean
01:53:12.300
up i think it's penn station in washington dc and he's just released plans on what he's doing
01:53:18.280
he is beautifying uh washington dc they have gone from these fountains were awful awful graffiti and
01:53:27.780
black and horrible and he's cleaned them up they look brand new i mean washington dc is going to
01:53:33.820
look nice for the 250th. Um, if you're planning on going to the 250, there's a lot of stuff going
1.00
01:53:39.580
on in Washington, DC. I I'm going with my family. I think it's going to be cool, but, um, all right.
01:53:44.540
So stop with just stop with the Trump derangement syndrome. Okay. When you can't say, no, that looks
01:53:50.040
good. Or I don't like the way it looks, but at least it's fixed. You have no credibility whatsoever,
01:53:55.160
none whatsoever um now let me go to california votes the california votes um
01:54:02.520
jason has a theory that this is the rosetta stone and i hope you're right
01:54:10.520
um but let me add on top of that i'm going to bring jason in he can express explain his theory
01:54:17.020
and i really hope he's right but i think this is also the moment where we can get uh the save
01:54:24.460
America Act passed. Susan Collins just said that she would vote for the Save America. That means
01:54:31.120
there's 50 senators. If you don't have to have this ridiculous filibuster, and let me explain,
0.74
01:54:37.960
I have not been for getting rid of the filibuster. I wanted a return to the original filibuster,
01:54:44.480
which was not what our founders had at the very beginning. But the return of the regular
01:54:50.100
filibuster, the Jimmy Stewart goes, Mr. Smith goes to Washington filibuster where you can talk
01:54:54.860
and talk and talk. But the minute you stop talking, they have to vote. But you can slow things down so
01:55:00.800
people can catch their breath. I'm all for that. I am not for this 60 vote minimum. And you can
01:55:06.760
listen to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, all of them said it is a majority rule, except in
01:55:14.200
things like veto or anything that is requiring a supermajority. Regular bills do not require a
01:55:21.740
supermajority. And they were very clear on that. So yes, get rid of the filibuster. If you're not
01:55:27.500
going to return to the Mr. Smith goes to Washington, you have to return to the old one.
01:55:31.540
So this one's on Thune now. Thune, are you going to do anything about it? Because now you have the
01:55:35.700
50 vote minimum. And you have more than that if you actually vote. But let's see what they do.
01:55:42.240
But Jason says that this is actually the Rosetta Stone.
01:55:46.660
What's happening in California is the Rosetta Stone.
01:55:50.260
Well, I think that in the progressives and the left's arrogance, they have done this multiple times.
01:55:56.540
But there's been this aha moment where they have gotten so arrogant that it then suddenly becomes clearly obvious to everyone what they are trying to do, in this case, through elections.
01:56:11.220
And I'm not sure if you know the full story or not, but at the end of the 18th century, 1799, 7 or whatever, after the Napoleon invasion and conquering of Egypt, a single soldier found the Rosetta Stone.
01:56:26.200
And what they found later was that what it was, was in the Egyptian king's arrogance, and at this time, nobody could decipher hieroglyphics.
01:56:39.760
But in the king's arrogance, because he wanted everyone to know how amazing he was.
01:56:44.000
And the Egyptian king wanted to know exactly how you make a statue of him, how you glorify him.
01:56:51.660
They wanted to put it in multiple different languages so everybody in Egypt knew.
01:56:56.380
They were speaking something called, I think it was demotic, which is a derivative of ancient Egyptian.
01:57:09.660
What that ended up doing was I gave a, finally, you know,
01:57:12.740
a way to decipher how to read Egyptian hieroglyphics.
01:57:15.980
Finally, everyone knew what they were talking about
01:57:29.020
and I think that we have to adjust probably our language
01:57:32.080
I think that a lot of it gets turned into hieroglyphics.
01:57:35.260
excuse me, glyphics. When we talk about stolen elections, or when we say words like that,
01:57:41.520
what we have failed to realize, some have realized, but I think what we are missing is that in many
01:57:46.340
of these blue states, it's going exactly as planned. They have done these laws. And in some
01:57:50.880
of these blue states, it is exactly legal. It's just that I think that we have been using the
01:57:54.840
wrong language. It should be completely clear right now, exactly what they are trying to do.
01:58:00.520
This should be, this California election should be that Rosetta Stone that outs the arrogance of the left.
01:58:12.660
Jason, will you just ask somebody on the team to ask Ricky to assign somebody on the team all of the laws where they've made these things legal?
01:58:24.540
Let's use the Rosetta Stone theory and say, okay, so what have they done?
01:58:28.940
Because I agree with you. I don't think you can prove that it is an election fraud enough to turn things. I think there's more than enough smoke and fire to say, look at what is being attempted. I can't tell you. Maybe there is. It will only come through an investigation.
01:58:50.260
Maybe there is enough to say, look at how they've stolen the election.
01:58:56.840
What is actually happening is we define it as a stealing of election, but they don't.
01:59:05.840
And so while it's not legal in your state, it's legal in their state.
01:59:09.580
And so when you say they're stealing the election, they can clearly say, no, it's not.
01:59:17.680
because they've had that kind of power for that long.
01:59:21.200
Can you see if you can come up with a list of those things?
01:59:25.100
Maybe next week I can do an after show deep dive on that
01:59:32.160
Hang on because I want to also talk to you about Belfast.
01:59:44.600
um it is a guy that is in belfast and he has taken he's is he somali right
01:59:56.920
and so he is he has got a guy down he's pinned him down to the ground and he's sitting on his chest
02:00:05.800
and he's taking a knife and he is he is sawing back and forth trying to hack this guy's head off
02:00:13.960
Now, the woman who's taking this video, you can hear her saying, get off him, get off him.
02:00:19.940
Well, I don't expect a woman to go in by herself, but was she the only one that was there?
02:00:26.740
There was one other guy that we know of that runs up at the end and pulls him off and hits him.
02:00:35.060
That's the only thing that saved this guy's life.
02:00:42.500
And we've had lots of people write in today, the Torch members, and saying,
02:00:49.500
Yes, what you're seeing now is the Bubba effect.
02:00:55.880
Yeah, what concerns me the most on this is, especially if we're talking Rosetta Stone
02:01:01.340
and what the progressives and the radicals are revealing right now,
02:01:04.860
we know that this is exactly what they are looking for.
02:01:08.760
That's what worries me the most about the Bubba effect.
02:01:11.100
And, you know, the progressives on the left know exactly what's doing this.
02:01:15.560
They know that unchecked immigration, open borders, messing with the asylum system, they know that it is dangerous.
02:01:21.780
You look at things like digital ID that the UK government is now pushing.
02:01:26.980
You heard that from the king, also heard it from Starmer.
02:01:29.560
Did you hear why they're actually doing digital ID and pushing towards more control that way?
02:01:34.500
Because they said immigrants to protect you.
0.51
02:01:39.740
It's for jobs to make sure that we know exactly who's got a job
02:01:48.660
And in case you don't know what the Bubba effect is,
0.96
02:01:54.320
Is this an actual term or was this something that I heard
02:02:01.300
It was about 2004, and I'm with a bunch of guys
02:02:05.200
that are at special forces headquarters on the East Coast,
02:02:10.940
And I said, so what is the thing you're most worried about?
02:02:17.680
the thing we're most worried about is the Bubba effect.
02:02:20.020
And I said, I've never heard of the Bubba, what is that?
02:02:22.140
They said, that is when a government, for instance,
02:02:25.240
let's just say they use the example of terrorism.
02:02:31.820
There is terrorists in the country and we have terrorism.
0.93
02:02:36.400
And let's say we have a Beslan kind of terror where it's just awful.
1.00
02:02:40.900
And everybody in the country has been saying, wait a minute, you've got to stop coddling all of these Islamists.
1.00
02:02:49.900
And the government keeps saying you're a racist for saying that.
02:02:52.740
And then all of a sudden there's a huge terrorist attack.
02:02:57.800
And then somebody in town, Bubba, he takes action himself, does something stupid.
0.99
02:03:15.580
And the town says, we're not turning over Bubba,
02:03:22.740
And so the town starts to rise up against the government
02:03:26.020
because the government was responsible in some ways
02:03:34.440
or they ignored the things that were actually happening
02:03:44.240
And it's going to happen all over the Western world.
02:04:02.760
told me that they were most worried about was the Bubba effect.
02:04:08.420
And if you want to be really cynical, and I'm not,
02:04:16.200
what do the people who are on the left, what do they actually want?
02:04:24.460
They believe that this is a country that isn't worth saving.
02:04:31.440
man can't rule himself. We'll get a bunch of experts to run it. All the things, the great
02:04:36.540
reset, all of that. They have to have the people rise up. And we have seen them try to get us to
02:04:44.680
rise up. Yesterday with Carmelo was a great example of it. You saw people, and this was not
02:04:50.160
coordinated. This is just people being people. And that's kind of the secret in the sauce.
02:04:54.980
People being people. There were people that were standing up that were very outraged at that
02:04:59.580
verdict and who are standing right in front of white people. And I mean, nose to nose,
0.56
02:05:05.260
screaming at them, making gestures like, come on, come on, come on, come after me,
02:05:10.400
come after me. They wanted to fight. Because once you give, once you give them a fight,
02:05:15.760
then you can do all kinds of things because then there's chaos on the streets.
02:05:20.000
And we've seen this since 2008 in the tea party. They, they kept calling us all kinds of names,
02:05:30.360
they would immediately blame it on the tea party.
02:05:52.380
But for Belfast and countries over across the seas,
02:05:55.500
I think it's going to be, we're soon headed towards that straw that will break the camel's back.
02:06:03.820
Once upon a time, your dog's food was alive and it contained all the kinds of stuff that helps a dog body thrive.
02:06:10.620
Turns out, you know, if you want dog food to sit in a bag, well, then you have to make it sit in that bag for at least up to two years.
02:06:18.580
That means you have to process the crap out of it.
0.89
02:06:20.980
And that's a trade-off because the food will last in the bag for two years, which is great
0.99
02:06:25.600
if you're a warehouse, but it is not great if you're a dog.
02:06:29.640
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with kibble.
02:06:33.600
My gosh, I got to give you an update on these two dogs.
1.00
02:06:40.540
What our dogs eat is not the same that the ingredients that they started with.
02:06:48.240
It takes all of the stuff that is alive and most of the nutritional stuff out of it.
02:06:58.520
You still feed your dog the same thing you're feeding him today.
02:07:00.760
You just sprinkle this on, and it puts all of the probiotics and enzymes,
02:07:04.380
everything that is alive, all the omegas and antioxidants,
02:07:07.180
right back into your dog's food, and they love it.

father's day is coming up and if the dad in your life is the kind of dad who kind of takes
02:07:45.540
grilling seriously, I have absolutely just solved your shopping problem. Because every dad who cooks
02:07:51.740
outdoors has had the experience where you have this steak, you throw it on the grill, everything
02:07:57.000
looks great. And maybe you're feeling confident. Maybe you're the grill master. And then comes the
02:08:02.800
moment of truth. Is it medium rare? Is it a hockey puck? You have no idea. And that's because you
02:08:09.800
don't want to have that moment where you're like, oh gosh, well, let's go maybe get pizza instead
02:08:13.340
because I ruined the steaks. Now, that's never happened to me, obviously, because I'm an incredible
02:08:19.300
grill master. But some dads have had that problem. And if that's your dad or the dad in your life,
02:08:24.040
that's where Chef IQ Sense comes in. It's a smart thermometer that connects to your phone.
02:08:29.900
It tells you exactly what's happening with your food in real time. And it doesn't just give you
02:08:34.080
a temperature reading. It actually walks you through the entire cook, telling you to flip,
02:08:42.160
It turns, I think it's done, into I know it's perfect.
02:08:55.360
This is perfect, by the way, for really hot grilling temperatures
02:09:01.160
You can kind of step away and watch your phone.
02:09:08.900
