00:03:31.060 like my charts yeah and i've been slowly convincing myself over the past week that the media is going

00:03:38.180 to be successful in convincing the american people the economy is good i you know they're going to lay

00:03:45.100 this on thick and i and we know what the reality is but it's the media versus reality and i'm getting

00:03:50.440 scared more and more scared that the media is going to succeed in this effort and joe biden is going

00:04:45.400 usually it's like uh begat is in between yeah right okay so you know those are probably bible

00:04:52.720 names you have no idea don't remember what story they're from don't know okay so you remember when

00:05:00.520 god delivered the hebrew people from slavery in egypt and they were all crybabies and the minute they 1.00

00:05:06.200 hit you know the water they're like oh i don't know we should go back to europe go back to not

00:05:10.900 europe go back to egypt right and they you know it was supposed to be 11 day walk and it turned into 40

00:05:19.080 years because of what god you know because of the response that god had when 12 leaders

00:05:29.240 chaffet people like you okay moses picked 12 yeah they went in i don't think this is going to turn 0.95

00:05:37.560 out well for me it's not it's okay okay moses says you guys go into the promised land and see what it

00:05:44.900 looks like what kind of people live does doesn't it milk and honey right yeah see if there's any walls

00:05:49.880 around the city you know basic stuff bring back some fruit of the promised land so and i'm not making

00:05:56.180 this up this this it was grape season and the grapes were so big it took two men to carry a

00:06:01.980 cluster of them okay really good land that god was giving them look at the size of the grapes right

00:06:07.220 but it wasn't just the grapes big grapes mean big people and the people were living there they were

00:06:14.420 huge too so the spies came back and what did they say oh we can't take that land we can't do it we can't

00:06:21.760 do it yeah it's flowing with milk and honey like god said but the city walls are gigantic

00:06:26.640 and the giants there make us look like grasshoppers they really use grasshopper they're giant they're

00:06:33.200 giants we look like grasshoppers sure okay so there were two other people that they were spies too and

00:06:40.320 they were like uh no we you know we got god on our side we can do this okay and then everybody started

00:06:45.640 i wish we were back in egypt we should go back to slavery this moses guy they were totally without 1.00

00:06:52.100 hope okay so the two guys they start saying no god's with us this is great land don't don't give up

00:07:00.800 your hope now that didn't work and everybody tried to stone them to death okay okay all right okay

00:07:06.460 this is again i don't okay i don't know what this has to do with my election analysis do you know

00:07:10.760 who caleb and j joshua are i know several caleb's caleb and joshua in this context have you ever heard

00:07:19.100 of those names i'm sure that means i'm just it's something that's going to mean bad things for me

00:07:23.760 that's what i know let me break this down for you sure please do let me break this down for you

00:07:29.720 in every journey that seems insurmountable there will always be voices like stew what what do you

00:07:40.520 mean it seems insurmountable we have a a decrepit man with alzheimer's who's losing in every swing

00:07:47.860 state this isn't that's not the the the the feel of the moment weren't you the one that your voice

00:07:54.120 was clouded with fear and doubt yes yes that's true that i am i am clouded with fear and doubt and

00:08:00.200 you often forget the extraordinary power of our god that's that's i don't forget that at all get it

00:08:07.040 all the time i do not forget all the time not you were like the 10 spies i was not like yes you were

00:08:14.800 despair we might be a little too optimistic past the challenges that there are big grapes waiting for

00:08:21.580 you you know i didn't reference grapes that's why names like stew and chaffet you know the their

00:08:31.200 names overshadowed by their doubt faded in the backdrop of history just gone however the two spies

00:08:39.260 and others like them who remain very humble they have a radical different perspective they knew the

00:08:50.860 strength in the promise that lay with the faith in god see they looked beyond the giants stew they saw

00:09:00.840 potential they saw hope they saw the fulfillment of promise underpinned by the unwavering belief in the

00:09:07.380 power of god their names unlike your name will be is it is endured through millennia not because they

00:09:17.000 they faced lesser challenges no no but because they chose to see those challenges differently

00:09:22.540 it was their unyielding belief in in vision uh-huh that led them to be remembered

00:09:32.620 in in in the face of challenges we should be we should be more like joshua and caleb and

00:09:41.700 just and remember just don't be stew how did i know remember and the voices of doubt both external

00:09:51.720 like stews and internal like stews will fade away but the courage to believe in what seems impossible

00:09:59.520 that echoes through eternity

00:10:02.100 i don't so let your faith be stronger than fear and your vision

00:10:16.280 don't let that be guided by the obstacles in your path

00:10:21.040 but by instead the boundless power of your belief

00:10:26.120 because in every challenge stew there lays an opportunity 0.99

00:10:31.580 for instance my challenge today was how can i make you look stupid and feel insignificant 0.94

00:10:43.300 and then your challenge very a very godly challenge by the way it is it is it is right out of the 0.97

00:10:51.020 bible country we are in bible well well anyway uh so and then your obstacle your challenge that you

00:10:59.760 presented gave me this opportunity i i suppose that's true you didn't address any of my concerns at

00:11:06.360 all faith i have determination to overcome so you're no longer worried about the election it is not the

00:11:11.720 voices that tell us you know that that we're never gonna make it that will be remembered no

00:11:18.080 it'll be those who against all odds believe that we can and i believe that we can

00:11:23.340 so no more you're not going to worry about the election no more fretting from glenn beck for the next

00:11:28.960 six months no stew no no just because you have faith in god doesn't mean that you don't have to go in

00:11:35.740 and fight those giants which is what i was bringing up by the way no you're bringing in fear

00:11:42.340 i was well i was bringing fear i will say you should be scared and doubt fear and doubt fear and doubt i

00:11:47.440 will say i have both on the record right now that's what you heard right fear and doubt that's what

00:11:52.560 america i completely admit i was bringing up fear and doubt the whole point of the of of my my my uh

00:11:58.580 well it has no place here stew it does have a place here we better be scared and we better freaking 0.67

00:12:03.920 not be sure of ourselves no here's the thing here's the thing we have to be sure that our god

00:12:08.700 is bigger than stew's fear that's 100 true i'm not saying i'm just saying like you're beginning to

00:12:15.980 see the no that's i i'm not being beginning to see the light i there's light that you're describing

00:12:20.840 i've seen for a very long time let your faith be stronger than stew's fear i know it's not hard

00:12:27.400 because anything with stew is very very little and small and insignificant that's what i hear

00:12:34.540 that's that's what i've heard that's what all the ladies say 1.00

00:12:37.740 uh no i i i to be serious i am with you i am they seem to like know something that we don't know

00:12:47.220 you know they seem to there's like they you know that's a great way to describe it that's what it

00:12:51.700 feels like it does it's like wait you're doing what like how many polls have we seen in a row

00:12:56.660 where they're like hey poll of seven swing states trump leads in all of them and they're like oh

00:13:00.580 that's no big deal don't worry yeah don't worry there's something else we're gonna do hey you

00:13:04.520 dummy why don't you have an electric car yet oh i don't have the money get over yourself

00:13:11.760 like their legitimate election messaging is get over yourself legitimate and they're like oh we're 0.85

00:13:18.200 gonna win this no problem why do they think that yeah because they know something we don't know

00:13:22.840 perhaps perhaps like i'll give you this in mid 2020 uh the economic index was minus 60 that's not

00:13:33.140 good just in case you're yeah you might not be you may be new to some of these measures minus 60 is not

00:13:38.760 good okay you don't win elections at minus 60 right okay it's gone from minus 60 to minus 20

00:13:44.580 now minus 20 also not good right we are not the position where people think oh this is a great

00:13:50.620 economy but it is moving significantly in the direction they wanted to go in and it goes you

00:13:57.160 look at uh previous elections if you can get to about even you can probably win if you're below if

00:14:05.400 you're below you're minus 10 minus 20 it's pretty hard so i think like if the election was held right now

00:14:10.160 today uh i think trump would win however we've got seven months before an election and in that seven

00:14:17.680 months the media the establishment every every single lever they have is going to be used to its

00:14:24.300 full capacity to convince the american people that the economy is good and if they are successful

00:14:30.040 in that venture joe biden will win that is a scare that is fear and doubt yes i agree let me say

00:14:38.060 this sincerely not about you i was obviously joking but let me say this sincerely the voices of doubt

00:14:45.600 both external and internal they fade away in history but the courage to believe in what seems

00:14:56.680 insurmountable echoes through eternity let your faith be stronger than your fear understand that that

00:15:08.000 requires you to act in faith don't look at the obstacles in your way do you have faith in miracles do you

00:15:20.320 have faith in god have you gotten down on your knees and begged him for forgiveness of the sins of our country

00:15:29.640 have you turned your face back to him we win through our boundless belief that the god of abraham isaac and jacob

00:15:43.900 is real is alive is engaged

00:15:49.180 don't be the generation don't be the people who lose this country because we doubt

00:15:58.940 unwavering faith unwavering faith determination to overcome that's what will be remembered and that's what

00:16:09.480 will win we must actively engage the god of abraham isaac and jacob beg for his blessings while doing the

00:16:20.400 things that would bring those blessings on our heads turn back to god

00:16:28.120 their arrogance will be their undoing we have uh slipped from our pedestal here uh and i think we

00:16:38.620 did it a long time ago most of us just didn't notice but uh when we started aborting children

00:16:43.840 in the womb ah and saying that it was a fundamental american right you know i i think we might have

00:16:51.080 gone in the wrong direction that's why the ministry of pre-born is defending the life of babies and

00:16:57.380 introducing and expecting mom to her unborn baby baby through free ultrasounds when they do that

00:17:04.640 pre-born doubles the chances that mom is going to choose life they've rescued over 280 000 babies 0.99

00:18:26.520 activist uh leading the charge uh and uh flash welcome to the program thanks hey thanks for having

00:18:35.040 me good morning is that really your first name flash your god-given name that is yes it's it's my name

00:18:41.520 since i was a kid like everybody right right but not everybody has the name flash you had cool parents

00:18:48.000 apparently and not everybody has a name that you have to live up to right yes and so you are so tell

00:18:56.040 me what happened in 2019 with your mom yeah my uh my father had passed away and uh we were

00:19:04.900 we had moved my mom out of the house it was up in a remote like location up in northern california

00:19:10.160 and uh so the family decided we needed to sell the house moved her in with me and uh we listed the 0.83

00:19:18.420 house and uh i get a uh nothing was happening and i get a report that there was a break-in and then

00:19:25.560 someone had broken in the back door and that neighbors were seeing you know cars in the driveway

00:19:30.020 and wondered if i rented the house and uh i immediately called the sheriff i told him that

00:19:37.880 you know the house is vacant that the back door was you know broken in the deputy goes out there and

00:19:44.200 says um yeah you know it's uh the the door is broken in but uh you said it was vacant and there's a house

00:19:51.940 full of furniture and uh there's nothing we can do it appears you have squatters and it's a civil matter

00:19:58.200 so you know blindsided just like everybody and those those words are devastating when you

00:20:04.840 start looking into squatters and their rights and how you have no rights and so i just decided to um

00:20:13.340 you know punch you know punch and kick the heavy bag for a bit and then and then i went to work just

00:20:19.120 breaking down the laws and the rights and figured figured out that if they could take a house i could

00:20:24.620 take a house and i had read that someone you know that many have fake leases and i thought you know

00:20:31.240 it's like a 10 12 hour drive so i you know so i thought well i can't go up there and not have a

00:20:39.080 lease in hand just in case so my mom wasn't in the you know she just mentally couldn't wouldn't have

00:20:46.220 been able to handle it so i told her i was going up to do repairs on the house and but just wanted a

00:20:51.740 lease since no one knew me you know really like up there and uh i um you know so she we got a lease

00:20:59.740 notarized it just in case went up there and i think i arrived in there like four in the morning

00:21:06.460 and i just kind of parked down the street and watched and i slept probably a bit but around 8 8 30

00:21:14.120 in the morning they pulled out of the driveway and i was prepared with a new lock uh cameras and alarm

00:21:21.620 system and a lease and uh they left three cars about seven i counted like five men and two women

00:21:29.920 and uh so once they left i went immediately went in and uh and my key worked the back door was still

00:21:40.240 broken in and uh and i secured the back door put up cameras and they arrived as i was putting up the

00:21:48.300 last camera over the driveway and um you know and i just basically told them that uh you know they

00:21:56.260 that it was my house now and uh there was an alarm and cameras and you know that there would be

00:22:04.000 evidence of breaking if they broke in on camera prosecute and i told them that uh you know i have

00:22:10.440 all the rights since i have possession and uh turned out one of them was a prison guard and uh so you know

00:22:19.640 she she knew that she didn't have a leg you know to stand on so i basically told them that they had 1.00

00:22:25.720 till the end of the day to get their stuff out of the house and uh or you know or they would lose it

00:22:32.660 and uh i had already talked to neighbors young guys and set it up that uh i just said hey if

00:22:39.760 like 5 p.m there's no furniture on this driveway then come over you can have anything you want

00:22:45.660 just help me get it out of the house and they were like yeah dude yeah that would be awesome

00:22:49.360 so um i yeah so they complied and and i told them that i was you know i was videoing i had a youtube

00:22:57.460 channel and i said look i'm gonna you know you have a choice i will expose you to the world

00:23:02.520 and or i will share the story and blur your faces and not share your name that's your choice so

00:23:09.620 either your life is going to change big time because everyone's going to know all about you

00:23:14.500 and they chose to comply and get out and they were out all the furniture was out before midnight and i

00:23:22.660 think they took the last load at like 2 a.m out of the driveway um so yeah so that video is like

00:23:29.540 5.9 million views right now it's unbelievable now you have gone kind of into business with this

00:23:37.060 in a way right yeah so i um you know it it the the video popped up i mean it it i i held on to it

00:23:46.660 because of uh covid because i you know right now i'm america's hero and i would have been america's

00:23:52.280 villain if i kicked people out during covid so i held on to the video i posted it january 20th 2023

00:23:59.840 march it it went viral march 10th i was like news you know newsworthy and then um yeah and i people

00:24:08.800 are asking me like saying hey use your popularity to help people so i announced on jesse waters that i

00:24:15.380 was going to be fighting for a law change and then i just figured you know not only to keep it in the

00:24:21.260 media and keep it going and bring awareness to it but i had all these people reaching out to me just

00:24:27.700 asking for help so i started helping and i was helping for free and i was you know and i was doing

00:24:32.680 i was just it just consumed my life so i decided to you know protect myself not only with a business but

00:24:40.300 but also just being able to officially help more people so i created squatter hunters llc

00:24:48.880 squatterhunters.com and i'm i've basically i've recruited now an army across the united states

00:24:55.380 of because there are it's amazing how many people and and you know and i give priority to

00:25:01.640 ex-police officers and even some active police officers um have gotten approval to be able to

00:25:08.180 help me in their off hours and and it's amazing because you know that my biggest supporters are law

00:25:15.320 enforcement because they wish they could do something they wish you know they they didn't sign up for the

00:25:21.380 job to be to have to you know walk away and and let this happen and uh you know and a lot of people

00:25:28.600 blame law enforcement but it's not them they're not the ones that uh that made this law and and and and

00:25:35.500 and basically handcuffed themselves so when you guys go into a house now you just you make them

00:25:43.640 uncomfortable you out squat them yes if they if they um if they want to be with in there with us

00:25:53.440 then absolutely it's going to be very uncomfortable it'll be cameras up in every room um except for their

00:25:59.460 bedroom in the bathroom of course but um you know it'll be very uncomfortable um just just you know

00:26:07.120 in presence but um but yeah i mean i'm pretty animated and you know and and i'll just do whatever

00:26:13.640 it takes to make them uncomfortable um so like what are those what are those things well i mean it's

00:26:20.780 like when you're you know when you're like you know sitting in the couch and you know in your underwear

00:26:25.780 and you're you know pouring a box of cereal over you like your job of the hut um you know it's uh

00:26:32.440 it's pretty uh you know but pretty intense but um but you know it it typically doesn't get to that

00:26:40.120 because most people you know these people are they're regular well besides being a narcissist and

00:26:47.080 entitled they're regular people they they don't want to you know they're banking on the fact that

00:26:52.860 you know they deserve to be able to do this because the law allows and why not live rent free

00:26:59.940 but you know we have a job we have you know we're we go to the store we go whatever until people are

00:27:07.320 trying to get them out they're not bunkered in as long as they don't know like anything and and and

00:27:14.080 that's where i'm most effective is when the squatter isn't expecting me because they're expecting that

00:27:20.460 first interaction with the homeowner and then that homeowner homeowner told by police it's a civil

00:27:27.080 matter and then they're expected to receive a a three-day notice then they're expected to receive

00:27:33.200 a 30-day notice and then a 60-day notice and and they're expected to go through the civil process so

00:27:39.920 when all of a sudden they show up one day and i'm there with a at least another guy or more

00:27:47.980 and they're locked out and i'm showing them a lease and i'm saying look i don't know who you are but

00:27:54.280 this is my house and you know and oh my gosh it came furnished um police yeah and then when they call

00:28:03.100 the police they you know they can only tell them it's a civil matter i mean they're not prepared for

00:28:09.400 that so you know but i spend a lot of time and i and i tell people look you know don't confront your

00:28:15.320 intruder you know it's like this is property don't risk your life you know i'm i'm trained

00:28:20.860 you know i'm i'm certified in de-escalation i'm trained physically mentally and you know and and

00:28:27.500 my guys are all trained so you know it's not something that a homeowner not only can you not

00:28:33.820 do it legally as we've seen already and you know now some videos have gone viral with homeowners being

00:28:40.140 arrested for just changing the locks so homeowners can't do this so it's very important um you know

00:28:47.980 contact you know contact me at squatterhunters.com um you know consultation at squatterhunters.com

00:28:55.880 you just send your description of everything we set up a zoom meeting and we break it down simplify it

00:29:02.420 i give you advice and if you need you know to hire my crew then we'll come out and uh take care of

00:29:10.420 business how do you get around the law that the it is it is the homeowner hiring you to do it

00:29:20.300 uh well it's yeah we're it's just kind of done a certain way the homeowner can can lease a property to me

00:29:31.280 and that's how it's done basically they're leasing they're leasing the property to me and then i'm just

00:29:38.200 gaining possession as the leaseholder it flash it seems it's interesting because you you have

00:29:44.520 i think a bunch of people who have a lot of power who for whatever reason like this system the way it's

00:29:51.320 set up that are going to try to get you on every little legal issue they can they're going to try to

00:29:57.140 ruin what you're doing i think i mean are you worried about that at all

00:30:00.560 well i'm sure they will and you know the way i figure it out is that you know there have been what

00:30:08.980 decades a hundred years this is going on and and what a million attorneys and they couldn't figure

00:30:14.020 this out so you know yeah they'll try to outfox me but uh i'll just come up with something new

00:30:20.480 i love you i love you flash thank you man i appreciate it love it flash shelton it's

00:30:26.380 squatterhunters.com squatterhunters.com god bless you flash one one thing if i can one more thing

00:30:34.860 the one the one way that everyone can help me because my influence is what gets most of these

00:30:41.900 squatters out so just simply subscribing to my youtube outside the box with flash that's the most

00:30:48.840 crucial thing because usually i can just show that i'm going to spread the word and i'm going to

00:30:54.020 expose their faces and they won't be able to lease in the future that that's the biggest thing just

00:31:00.200 subscribe to my youtube channel i love that that's an easy sell i'm there i'm there i'm out of the box

00:31:05.160 with flash thank you very much appreciate it yes god bless you man you bet the best of the blend back

00:31:12.020 program so here's some good news uh you know the um the uh the country has you know been told that

00:31:20.520 we're going to get off of um off of uh you know gasoline cars we're going to be driving evs in the

00:31:26.140 future the very near future in fact california and and i believe eight other states have now joined

00:31:31.600 with california to say no more no more gasoline cars by 2035 we're going to be all evs well that's

00:31:39.620 going to be it's going to be fun to watch to see how that works out for a minute um ford has delayed

00:31:46.240 production of their new electric vehicles by years now because evs are not selling and so ford's like

00:31:56.920 i i i don't know i i mean i think maybe we should slow down on this the splits on their business are

00:32:06.640 incredible do you have those in front of you by any chance the splits on their business the splits

00:32:10.220 between evs and gas-powered vehicles i'm gonna miss these probably by a few hundred million dollars or

00:32:17.120 so but my remember my remembering of this is something like they've lost 3.5 billion dollars

00:32:24.280 on their electric vehicle business and gained seven billion dollars profit in their uh you know

00:32:32.680 combustion engine business so like they are actually a really healthy company if they didn't

00:32:38.880 listen to the government the everything like what a surprise say that again i can't believe that's

00:32:44.980 true if they didn't follow the edicts of the government they would be massively successful right

00:32:51.460 now and i think a lot of people look at for them like oh they've had their problems like and they

00:32:55.000 have over the years obviously you know go back to 2008 and such i look at ford and think that's the

00:33:00.520 this is the end of the american car i honestly feels like and it's it does feel like they're doing

00:33:05.980 pretty well you know they're if it wasn't for the evs yeah so here here's the actual spread ford's

00:33:13.720 electric vehicle business lost would you say three i mean that's me remembering it four four billion

00:33:20.220 point seven okay i missed my 1.2 billion that's before interest in taxes the division that makes

00:33:28.020 gasoline and hybrid made 7.5 billion in profit in profit so again that they're overall profitable

00:33:37.600 solely because of their gas powered side yes and they are they would have a much larger profit if

00:33:44.520 not for the evs and the hybrids is an interesting thing where i think a lot of these companies are

00:33:48.560 going to wind up landing because you know hybrids aren't bad no i don't i don't love them i don't 1.00

00:33:53.740 love them either i don't want one but i don't want one but what i will say is it does solve the

00:33:58.120 real negatives of the evs and that you can just put gas in it if you want so you can you don't

00:34:04.500 have to worry about the charging craziness and all that other stuff the plug-in hybrid is something

00:34:08.260 wait wait wait what do you mean about the charging craziness joe biden promised that he was going to

00:34:14.260 build uh charging stations all across the country and they've put in seven they have put in seven

00:34:20.760 so far that has not really helped other than seven people the situation all that much seven i was

00:34:26.700 talking to somebody seven who works here who owns a tesla recently and she's like you know i i thought

00:34:31.960 it was cool and it was great and and now i've had it for a few years and you know i can't wait to get

00:34:38.600 rid of it was basically what she summarized why it was she it's a nice car like the car teslas are nice

00:34:43.820 cars they're very very fast especially if you get some of the higher end ones uh but just the

00:34:48.800 charging of it i mean she went through the entire situation of like the agony of getting this thing

00:34:54.100 charged every day because you know she doesn't work in a she doesn't have the upgraded like she's 0.99

00:34:58.820 renting a house so she can't upgrade the electricity so she can't charge it at home so she has to stop

00:35:03.840 coming into work every other day and park for 45 minutes it does the uh her whole life i mean honestly

00:35:10.580 it seemed like her whole life was based around how to charge this car she plans 45 minute parts of her

00:35:18.780 day where she works in her car so she can get the thing charged to get her through the next couple 0.67

00:35:23.300 of days and it gets too hot it gets too cold and charging stations that she could go to no seven

00:35:29.840 and like there are a lot of charging stations around tesla put in the tesla put in right uh i don't know

00:35:34.860 why the government needs to be involved in this of course well no they're going to build them all

00:35:38.120 across the country he promised he was going to build them all across the country and he's completed

00:35:42.200 seven of them and in three years yeah in three years that's great and that's i don't want to i

00:35:46.740 shouldn't downplay that i keep no i keep wanting to downplay this yes but don't but she's saying

00:35:51.600 that like she uh has run out gone to zero on the battery multiple times and had had the car towed 0.94

00:35:57.000 because it just was impossible to time also you come in in texas you park your car outside you work

00:36:03.340 inside for several hours you come back out the battery's lower than when you came back in

00:36:07.240 so you have to factor that into your calculation every day what is the percentage going to be

00:36:13.400 when i come back out of my workplace why well i mean the car does some stuff while you're inside

00:36:19.940 like it cool it can do and some of that's great like i was actually looking at an electric car

00:36:24.620 when when i couldn't get my car delivered for 14 months after i ordered it and i and there's one

00:36:29.760 electric car that i thought was really cool and i was looking into it and one of the things i liked

00:36:34.120 about it was in texas you know having a car that can keep your the interior temperature

00:36:42.100 at like a cool 97 or something right would be fantastic right because you know the whole thing

00:36:49.300 where you're like oh i can start it up and let it run for a minute yeah that doesn't really work

00:36:52.980 like it's it's in texas you're just going to fry when you're in your car no you didn't no seriously

00:36:57.720 you make very good pot roast on the dash of your car yes you absolutely can it's great so with an

00:37:03.000 electric car like some of them have the feature where you can turn it you can basically set your

00:37:08.420 temperature in advance and it cools with electricity you don't have to worry about it so there are some

00:37:13.200 good features to it there's there are reasons why electric cars are cool and can be great however

00:37:18.940 like the hybrid sort of solves it if you really care about that stuff you can get both and that's

00:37:23.460 why i think a lot of these car companies now are saying well if we go the hybrid situation we can

00:37:27.080 appease the government officials and like people who drive 10 miles to work can use electricity every

00:37:33.680 day probably plug it in and get that much mileage in it's not a big deal but when they want to go on

00:37:37.760 a long trip they can just use gas and you know you're not going to get necessarily the sexiest car 0.96

00:37:42.500 out of that situation in most circumstances i will tell you that when i was in saint george i don't

00:37:47.260 know if you were there no you didn't you didn't show what a surprise um but i went to your

00:37:52.520 saint george your art show i was there wasn't the art show it was a museum oh i went to the art show

00:37:57.760 in saint george how many times do i have to i haven't done an art show where'd you were no it

00:38:01.620 was uh it was another place in utah yeah good for you right good for you what was it park city park

00:38:06.360 city very different than saint george but um anyway all i know is i showed up once to make fun of your

00:38:11.640 art you should have come you should have come when we did the museum because i know a guy there who is

00:38:17.420 the i think he's the national he he's the national uh pr guy for mclaren oh and i've never driven a

00:38:27.060 mclaren and i would like to drive at mclaren yeah and so he he said hey would you would you be willing

00:38:33.820 to give my daughter's class a tour of the museum and i said sure and and he said oh and i said what what

00:38:42.920 do you mean oh and he's like well i was going to offer you know in exchange that you know you could

00:38:46.860 drive a mclaren for a day and i'm like whoa i'm not your daughter no i don't do those unless i

00:38:53.160 unless i'm compensated properly right so he let me borrow it for a day oh my god it is all uh it's

00:39:00.960 all electric i hate you in your life i know too too many good things happen to you i know it's great 0.77

00:39:05.760 isn't it no because they don't happen to you i like those things more because they don't happen 0.64

00:39:11.680 for you you don't even care about half the stuff you do i don't but anyway uh so this mclaren it

00:39:16.820 it runs all on electricity until it's like over 30 or 40 miles an hour so if you're just driving

00:39:25.940 around town it's all yeah so it's 40 all around town uh it uh it it it stays in electric but once you

00:39:36.920 punch it it's crazy it is the coolest thing ever because you feel like you're kind of in i don't

00:39:43.700 know you remember when they used to turn the power packs on in ghostbusters yeah yeah it was like

00:39:49.360 yeah so once you hit a certain maybe it's 40 miles i can't remember but you hit a certain amount

00:39:56.140 and the engine warms up and so the engine automatically starts and you hear it just go 0.95

00:40:02.420 oh my gosh and then it just is a rocket ship all i have to do is come up with a stupid museum and 0.91

00:40:10.160 i'll get like this that's all you have to do i'll put whatever they want on display i don't care i'll 0.96

00:40:15.200 make a fake documents from george washington all day long it's a fun car it's a fun car and i don't

00:40:20.100 have a problem with you know like hybrids or whatever and if you want to have an electric car have an

00:40:25.660 electric car don't wreck my life right and that's the problem right you know like the tesla roadster

00:40:31.560 they're talking about i mean he's been teasing this for years and years and years and years elon

00:40:34.940 but like it looks awesome and it is incredible like he's putting he's merging it with spacex

00:40:43.100 technology like they're gonna put like rocket boosters on this thing they think they can get

00:40:47.860 the zero to 60 time like near one second that's crazy which is insane i think it would hurt i think

00:40:53.920 you'd physically be injured have you been in it have you been launched in a tesla yeah yeah it's

00:40:58.580 it does your you feel your organs go ow yeah it it is actually jarring i think i bruised my stomach

00:41:04.940 right just you know it's that fast it's that fast so there's no reason why look technological

00:41:10.020 advancements we're all in favor of those but what they're doing to make this happen these things are

00:41:16.320 not winning in the marketplace i gotta tell you i gotta tell you i i you know we have these if you

00:41:22.000 ever been into the coffee and car show things that they do around here i have no so they have this

00:41:27.520 thing where it's just coffee and car on saturday mornings and you bring your car down and everybody

00:41:32.900 just gets together and you're just with a bunch of car people and you're just talking and having a good

00:41:36.640 time i love it go all the time everybody who is into a car that i know of everybody that's into a car

00:41:44.040 they are not into the electric anything no because it's not it's it's just not the same it doesn't

00:41:51.780 sound the same it doesn't feel the same it doesn't feel the same these engines are when they're done

00:41:58.440 right it is a piece of art it is really just an amazing thing and when you step on the gas and it

00:42:06.320 sounds like it when your wife my wife said this to me my wife i got a car and you know it it has a

00:42:13.880 growl to it and yeah it does when you step on it uh you know it just takes off and then when you let

00:42:20.800 your foot off the grass the gas it has to burn off all of the extra fuel that's in there so it gives

00:42:25.920 it that oh yeah you know that's the greatest sound of all time awesome american engine sound

00:42:31.640 and my wife got into it she's like what the hell's wrong with this car and i'm like what are you

00:42:37.840 talking about listen what is wrong with the car and i'm like honey i believe we might have paid

00:42:44.380 extra for that sound but there's just something to it and especially american cars they're just so

00:42:52.580 great stop wrecking it you know it's almost like they're attacking our institutions and culture i mean

00:43:01.220 i don't want to say that because there's not a lot of evidence of it you know it's like

00:43:05.600 you know it's almost like barack knew that we would have to change our culture our history

00:43:11.660 knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices we're going to have to change our conversation

00:43:16.940 we're going to have to change our traditions our history we're going to have to move

00:43:21.840 into a different place my gosh listen to that i it's like i heard that for the first time again just

00:43:28.460 now listen it was like we when we first found this and played this we were like look this is what

00:43:34.560 they're going to do this is what they're doing listen to it we'll play it one more time barack

00:43:39.740 knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices we're going to have to make sacrifices is that not

00:43:46.200 what we're doing right now everything that is happening to us you're having to make a sacrifice

00:43:52.260 pay a little more here you know you're sure your gas is more expensive sure you might not want an

00:43:57.680 electric car but you have to have one for the environment give up what you actually believe

00:44:02.040 because it's not what society is preaching sure yeah you have to just you have to go along with

00:44:07.200 that person who says they're a girl just go along with it so so sacrifice sacrifice okay next one

00:44:13.280 we are going to have to change our conversation stop change our conversations have we not changed

00:44:20.060 we don't even are we don't have them anymore we don't have them you're not allowed to have

00:44:23.520 them when you have a conversation you get canceled i mean that's that's like the preview of

00:44:27.760 cancel culture that one little sentence one sentence next we're gonna have to change our

00:44:32.760 traditions our traditions traditions our traditions easter is trans visibility day 0.72

00:44:40.980 next history we're gonna have to move stop we're gonna have to change our history you can't

00:44:50.420 change your history that is physically impossible 1619 project but they tried right they're still

00:45:05.720 you will not be able to teach history you won't be able to teach real history not real history

00:45:11.700 and then she says it's to a different place there's a move to a different place to provide

00:45:17.580 the kind of future that we all want this is not the future we all want this is the future that they

00:45:23.680 wanted you don't have a choice look at they're moving us now world economic form and everything else

00:45:45.700 you talk to each other you know one thing we can't say is that we were not warned

00:45:51.420 as were as always as always they tell you exactly what they're going to do history will look back

00:46:02.480 on us just like they look back on the germans and say what the hell is wrong with them you read
