There's a ton that was happening on today's show.
00:00:36.960
Tulsi Gabbard, is she going to be somebody that's going to be confirmed?
00:00:43.420
Craig T. Nelson is on to talk about a new movie that he has done called Green and Gold that's excellent.
00:00:49.020
We talked to Congressman James Comer about the Biden family.
00:00:53.640
And will the Justice Department now start examining this?
00:00:58.080
Because whether anybody goes to jail or not, it has to be exposed.
00:01:03.840
And he saw a few differences between the U.S. and Mexico.
00:01:07.640
He said he almost cried when he finally got back to America.
00:01:16.540
I hope the Trump administration, somebody, is going to start meeting with the Burna Launcher people when it comes to putting Burna Launchers in our schools.
00:01:26.500
I mean, I don't want the federal government to do it, but I'd like somebody of note to stand up.
00:01:35.220
The Burna Launcher is a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home, your family, your classroom.
00:01:48.240
And the Burna Launcher has powerful deterrents like tear gas, kinetic rounds, 60-foot range.
00:01:53.460
One shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes.
00:01:56.800
The Burna Launcher, you can use it with confidence to defend yourself, again, your family or your students, 500 government agencies, police officers, security firms all around the country are using it because it disables somebody for up to 45 minutes without killing anyone.
00:02:16.300
It's Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn, Burna dot com slash Glenn, 10% off your purchase, Burna dot com slash Glenn.
00:02:26.800
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:40.200
Those are going to be open, but the vote is in the skiff.
00:02:48.440
Tulsi Gabbard has been charged by President Trump to go in and look at every single secret agency
00:02:55.440
and find out what the black ops are, what have they been doing, who is involved in any of this smear.
00:03:04.840
She's being smeared like crazy again today, again by the intelligence community.
00:03:11.000
And she's I think she's the most risky vote because it's it's a secret vote and it should not be a secret vote.
00:03:21.320
She is not. She doesn't have any high high top secret clearance yet.
00:03:25.840
She has none. So she's not going to be divulging any secrets.
00:03:31.180
And I want to know I may not have to hear everything.
00:03:36.880
If some things are sensitive, then, you know, I want security for the United States.
00:03:42.340
But this has been a secret vote since the Department of Homeland Security invented the job of Department of National Intelligence.
00:03:53.680
And I want to know how my representative is voting, because without if they take a secret vote, then we don't know who's on our side, who's not.
00:04:02.740
I want to be able to say, wait a minute, Senator, why did you vote that way?
00:04:09.920
This is a way for them to be cowards and do things.
00:04:12.580
I mean, you don't understand how many senators and congressmen have said to me in secret outside looking around being very paranoid.
00:04:25.060
You carrying a phone and then say they are spying on all of us that has to stop.
00:04:35.620
So you might want to call your congressman and make sure that they vote or your senators and make sure that they vote for Tulsi Gabbard and demand that it's not a secret vote.
00:04:48.500
With that said, before I go to Pat, let me just give you one other piece of news that just came in from Ron DeSantis, who was on yesterday's program.
00:05:00.420
He said, I want you to thank all the listeners of your program yesterday, Glenn, who have supported the strong immigration proposals in Florida.
00:05:09.660
They called, they wrote to the Florida legislatures to insist on the strongest law possible.
00:05:18.060
Please keep up the calls and the letters for the provisions that are currently missing from the legislature's latest bill.
00:05:25.460
So they started to make, you made a difference yesterday.
00:05:31.540
But you've got a lot of rhinos in Florida that are trying to play the old game.
00:05:39.700
Don't get DeSantis' bill through or you're going to lose Florida.
00:05:46.900
The minute he's gone, these weasels will come back in and screw it all up again.
00:05:52.160
Be strong and send a strong message to the legislature.
00:06:05.400
You know, you realize just how much we take for granted in the United States.
00:06:13.740
Every time I travel, I come back and go, oh, thank God I'm back in the United States.
00:06:21.160
We nearly wept as we flew over the DFW area coming back home.
00:06:26.400
I mean, it's so tragic to see what they have to put up with in Mexico.
00:06:33.380
I mean, it's a nation with incredible resources.
00:06:43.540
But their leadership squanders it because they're corrupt.
00:06:47.140
And, you know, it's pretty bad when the water is so bad that you can't even brush your teeth with it.
00:06:54.100
You can't even put it in your mouth to spit it back out because it's too dangerous to do that.
00:07:00.480
You can't even flush toilet paper down a toilet.
00:07:13.700
I mean, again, if we didn't have Donald Trump, we would be in that situation and we just have to put up with it.
00:07:23.700
They don't have a Donald Trump and anybody who looks like could be a Donald Trump.
00:07:30.200
I mean, it does show you what 50 or 100 years of socialism brings you.
00:07:37.900
And the cartels are in control of a lot of what happens there.
00:07:43.480
We went to Valladolid first and then we went to Tulum, which are, you know, Tulum's kind of a trendy, new touristy area now.
00:07:56.440
If people see me and hear me, they think, he might not scream trendy, but he does scream tourist when he's in Mexico.
00:08:09.960
It's not as heavy as it is in Cancun, but there's still pretty serious military presence.
00:08:14.440
You see them driving around in their Humvees and the Jeeps with the AR-15s or AK-47s.
00:08:23.900
And they're on the street corners on the main strip where the tourists all walk down the street all day long.
00:08:35.800
And I was told when I was there, hey, don't ever carry cash with you if you rent your car.
00:08:41.560
Because when they pull you over, they will find a way to take it all from you.
00:08:57.640
They said the cops are so corrupt there that if you get pulled over and they know that you have any sort of –
00:09:03.160
because they offered to accept your ticket right then and there.
00:09:07.180
And they usually find a way when they find that you have money to take it all.
00:09:12.040
That is so – can you imagine living that way?
00:09:24.220
I trust my local police, but I don't trust the FBI, don't trust the justice system.
00:09:31.380
I mean, look at what Donald Trump is taking on right now in this last week.
00:09:36.080
When you were on vacation, I'm assuming you saw some of it.
00:09:41.300
What were your thoughts, and did you hear anybody in Mexico say anything?
00:09:47.180
I mean, the things that he was doing were a dream just a few months ago.
00:09:55.420
Every day, he would come in and we're like, oh, my gosh.
00:10:03.760
Yeah, this idea that every single employee gets this email saying,
00:10:07.400
you can just respond, resign to this email, and then we'll pay you until September,
00:10:14.300
But it's the exact thing that they did with Twitter, right?
00:10:20.400
Yeah, the letter to the Twitter employees and the letter to the government employees
00:10:32.840
I mean, there's some clause that you can pay employees $25,000 for them to resign.
00:10:41.540
It's like the Homeland Security Act for some reason.
00:10:43.940
But paying people until September would go well over that for a lot of employees.
00:10:48.580
So they may have trouble with that particular part of it.
00:10:51.200
But again, all these things are getting challenged.
00:10:56.020
It still saves, what was it, $150 million a year?
00:11:04.380
If I were in the administration, I'd be like, you know, they're going to find a way to cut.
00:11:12.320
I mean, unless you're hardcore, I think I would take it.
00:11:16.360
And I think, of course, this is part of the reason.
00:11:18.960
It's the same thing Elon Musk did and the same thing that he's doing here.
00:11:22.140
If you are an opponent of Donald Trump and are working at a job that you're now executing
00:11:28.640
I mean, like, look, I'm sure there are good liberal workers who are in there because they
00:11:33.280
got in there and they wanted to do they wanted to change the world and help people.
00:11:36.580
And they go in there and all of a sudden, like, they're cutting these programs.
00:11:41.960
And so this gives them the opportunity to get out.
00:11:44.540
Of course, there are millions and the majority are liberal in government.
00:11:51.200
They believe that government is the way to fix things.
00:12:04.820
So, I mean, it only makes sense that our government is riddled with socialist or big government
00:12:13.140
people, especially over the last few years with what's been happening with our educational
00:12:20.900
And this is a great way to just, you're going to wind up getting, I don't know, how many
00:12:30.580
Whatever it is, it's going to be a large, broad number of people who are like, you know
00:12:34.180
I'll get paid till September and I'll find a new gig.
00:12:36.500
And like, that's a great setup for somebody, right?
00:12:40.460
I'd much rather pay them till September to do nothing, but there's an end date on it.
00:12:45.700
Then continue to pay them for what they're actually doing because whatever that is, isn't
00:12:49.620
And it certainly beats severance if you get fired anyway and we give you two weeks and
00:13:01.120
You're probably going to get fired anyway, so you might as well take this.
00:13:06.100
I really think Donald Trump is serious this time about reducing the size of government.
00:13:16.180
I mean, he, you know, it takes on watching him now, everything he told me over the summer
00:13:22.340
and during the election, it, it changes the way I viewed that.
00:13:31.380
But this shows that he not only was intellectually there, he began planning this a long time ago
00:13:46.180
I mean, he's said this a few times, but I really think it's true.
00:13:48.960
I think he's, he's had the most consequential eight days in office.
00:14:00.160
And I will say, like, I feel like we've missed things.
00:14:04.920
Because I've, we've talked about a lot of these things and I've, it's impossible to do
00:14:09.500
Guys, guys, this is, you and I, we, the three of us were together during Obama.
00:14:15.760
We couldn't keep up with it because he overwhelmed the system.
00:14:23.280
We can't keep up with this because he's overwhelming the system.
00:14:33.320
I will say, though, this is the new norm, isn't it?
00:14:36.120
There's no way a Democrat gets into office and doesn't do the same stuff now.
00:14:45.460
We must win every single election until the end of time.
00:14:49.320
Because if you can, if you can codify these things, otherwise, the next president.
00:14:58.880
To get a hold of the country, we have to do it that way now.
00:15:04.240
Otherwise, we're just going to keep doing this over and over again.
00:15:13.080
You can hear him wherever you get your podcast or on Blaze TV.
00:15:18.760
The Ministry of Preborn is doing more right now to help champion the cause of life than just about anybody else out there.
00:15:24.740
They're able to keep going because of people just like you who give.
00:15:27.800
Because saving children from abortion actually means something to you.
00:15:32.460
Today, the abortion pill accounts for over 60% of all abortions.
00:15:41.140
In addition to what they're doing with free ultrasounds, they're also administrating this protocol for women who have attempted abortion but want it reversed.
00:15:48.380
They have rescued over 300,000 babies from abortion and every day on average, they rescue another 200.
00:15:55.760
When a woman is considering an abortion, she sees her baby on a screen and hears the heartbeat.
00:16:06.300
I mean, $28 sponsors one ultrasound, but if you want a leadership gift, your tax-deductible donation of $5,000 will sponsor Preborn's entire network nationwide for 24 hours.
00:16:18.740
You'd be the one responsible for rescuing 200 babies.
00:16:37.300
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:16:42.480
All right, let's go to James Comer, who is with us, congressman from Kentucky.
00:16:53.480
I want to look at your book and what we found, but I want to frame it in a way of – it's just frustrating to talk about all this stuff.
00:17:08.460
So tell me what you found and how we can actually make sure this doesn't happen again on either side.
00:17:17.400
First of all, obviously, we found that the Bidens were on the take.
00:17:20.720
What the media tried to say about the Bidens was they were in business like Jared Kushner and Donald Trump.
00:17:29.520
But what we found in our investigation when we started subpoenaing bank records and things like this and bank violations, that was the big thing.
00:17:37.200
The suspicious activity reports was that they didn't have a legitimate business.
00:17:44.120
They had about 26 or 27 LLCs, and at least 20 of them were flat out what's called shell companies.
00:17:56.460
They said that their client, when they would ask Hunter Biden, what is this LLC, he would say it's an investment company, and then the bank examiners would be communicating with each other when we subpoenaed the emails from the banks.
00:18:10.340
And they would say, the client says this is an investment company, but it has no investments, which is a shell company.
00:18:19.420
They were using these shell companies to launder money from these foreign nationals, and I would argue from the country of China, not from a Chinese energy company like the media said.
00:18:32.260
According to Tony Bobulinski, yeah, it was the Chinese Communist Party just bribing the Bidens.
00:18:38.860
They would then launder it in incremental payments to 10 different family members.
00:18:44.200
So we found out, first of all, the Biden family was on the take, and secondly, we found out that the government knew about it.
00:18:53.380
There were four different government agencies investigating the Bidens.
00:18:59.280
That was the FBI, the IRS, the Department of Justice, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
00:19:05.160
All had ongoing investigations, and when they would get to the point to where they would have to talk to Joe, because none of this money would be happening without Joe Biden.
00:19:17.180
So we found out the Bidens were on the take, and the government knew it, but there was a cover-up.
00:19:22.320
Now, how does somebody get that kind of power to, say, stand down?
00:19:28.160
That's a great question, and that's what we call, what I call the deep state.
00:19:35.880
It wasn't necessarily the Christopher Wray's or the James Comey's.
00:19:41.300
It was the embedded bureaucrats, the unelected bureaucrats who actually run these government agencies.
00:19:47.980
And a lot of people think, okay, Trump's won the election.
00:19:52.400
He's going to put Cash Patel, who I love and I already communicate with, and he's the right guy for the job.
00:19:58.380
But Cash is going to have to fire a lot of career people in the FBI.
00:20:03.700
And, you know, the way the civil service laws are, you can't fire them.
00:20:09.260
And that's what happened to Trump the first administration.
00:20:12.040
He wanted to fire some of these people in the bill bars of the world.
00:20:16.180
They would say, oh, you can't, or the James Comey's of the world.
00:20:19.360
They're going to. This time, they're going to try.
00:20:22.360
And that's how you stop it, because people think, we need to pass a law or fix this to where this doesn't ever happen again.
00:20:32.740
The banks notified the Treasury that they thought the Bidens were on the take.
00:20:37.780
The suspicious activity reports that we got, and I have a banking background.
00:20:42.100
I knew this was a big deal when we found out that we're 150 of these suspicious activity reports.
00:20:49.820
I knew from being a director of a bank, you don't issue these things for nothing, because the bank examiners roll in when you issue one of these.
00:20:58.360
And you certainly don't do it on a prominent client, unless you know darn well they're committing financial crimes.
00:21:04.760
It was reported 150. We found 170 on the Bidens, plus another 50 that they were a part of, that they were subject to.
00:21:16.440
So 220 bank violations where the banks, six different banks, were notifying the federal government.
00:21:25.720
We think they're violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
00:21:28.460
We think they're violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
00:21:35.380
The government agencies knew it, but they were told to stand down.
00:21:38.840
And I believe, and I write this in my book, that I don't believe they did it because they loved Joe Biden.
00:21:45.800
I believe they covered up for Joe Biden because they hated Donald Trump, and they didn't want Donald Trump to come back in office.
00:21:55.540
And also, perhaps, that the banks are getting an awful lot of money.
00:22:02.740
You know, all the bailouts and everything else, all the cozy relationship with the banks, the Fed, and the federal government bother me a great deal.
00:22:13.080
Because they should have, if they weren't getting any traction here, and everybody was denying it, shouldn't they have come to the American people and said,
00:22:27.280
hey, we just want you to know that we really, truly believe, or we have canceled our business with this client because of suspicious activity or something like that?
00:22:41.180
I can tell you, the banks were scared to death.
00:22:45.060
When I first, when we flipped the House, and I became chairman of the House Oversight Committee,
00:22:50.120
one of the first meetings I had in January, when we were still trying to get a speaker elected that first week, was with Jamie Dimon.
00:22:58.000
And I write about it in my book, All the President's Money.
00:23:03.340
I knew J.P. Morgan was one of the banks that had a bunch of violations on the Biden.
00:23:10.820
And I said, I'm going to hopefully have subpoena power in a week or two.
00:23:16.920
And I just want you to know, I'm going to subpoena you and J.P. Morgan for these bank violations.
00:23:23.740
And I thought he would, you know, bark at me or whatever.
00:23:30.100
And the other five banks, you're talking about Wells Fargo.
00:23:35.380
I mean, they wanted me to have, because they were screaming.
00:23:38.680
I mean, you don't issue a suspicious activity report on someone and not get the bank examiners to roll in.
00:23:45.820
But these banks were issuing dozens and dozens, and they had communicated amongst themselves
00:23:50.980
and knew that other banks were doing the same thing.
00:23:53.760
And they couldn't believe that the government wasn't doing anything.
00:23:58.540
And then that, you know, when the laptop came out, that, you know, they saw some of these emails on there
00:24:06.580
that alluded to the banks were after the Bidens.
00:24:10.560
And the media was saying, oh, there's nothing there.
00:24:15.100
It's right-wing crazy people like Comer saying the Bidens are corrupt when it's Russian collusion.
00:24:23.180
This is Vladimir Putin telling Republicans what to say.
00:24:27.280
And, I mean, to the banks, I'll defend the banks in this.
00:24:33.340
I mean, they gave us the Biden bank records, which you think about it.
00:24:38.160
The sitting president of the United States, the banks gave the House Oversight Committee
00:24:44.080
the personal bank records of Hunter Biden and Jim Biden and all these shell companies.
00:24:59.840
And according to the IRS whistleblowers, they never paid a penny of taxes on it.
00:25:06.100
The Bidens would owe another $10 million in taxes.
00:25:09.700
What Hunter Biden got prosecuted on was the one legitimate thing he did.
00:25:15.780
So, the one legitimate source of income that Hunter Biden had over a 10-year period that
00:25:27.460
Burisma was a corrupt energy company in Ukraine, but it was a real company, and he was listed
00:25:34.840
as a director, even though he had no qualifications.
00:25:38.120
And they paid him an exorbitant amount of money, more than the directors of Chevron, Exxon, and
00:25:48.260
But here's where he got – he didn't pay taxes on it.
00:25:52.000
He got a W-2 on it, and none of this other money he got a W-2 on because it was laundered
00:25:59.020
But this was the one legitimate paycheck he got, even though it was unethical as hell.
00:26:08.300
It's like the Bidens think they don't – taxes are only for the little people, not for the
00:26:14.940
I have to tell you, you're going to have president after president after president do this stuff
00:26:23.000
And whoever was involved, but now they've all been pardoned.
00:26:29.040
Will we still move forward and expose all of the players and all – everything?
00:26:39.380
This has to be on record and fully transparent.
00:26:43.800
I'm begging Bondi and Patel to move forward on this.
00:26:49.180
I told them we will help on the House Oversight Committee.
00:26:51.640
I've got fighters like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Nancy Mace and Byron Donald and Scott
00:27:02.020
But all we faced is obstruction from the Department of Justice.
00:27:05.300
Now that we have a friendly Department of Justice, if they will pursue this – the one
00:27:11.840
set of bank records I could not get because of – and Trump talks about this a lot – presidential
00:27:21.400
I would love to see Joe Biden's bank records because, you know, there were plenty of allegations
00:27:30.780
that the FBI had that Joe Biden was taking bribes and things like that.
00:27:36.560
We found the money of the allegations to the Bidens.
00:27:43.380
That's why Joe Biden had to pardon his entire family because of our investigation.
00:27:49.000
And, you know, somebody said, well, why didn't anybody go to jail?
00:27:54.400
We did the report, and all we can do – a police officer can arrest someone, but he can't
00:28:02.400
And that's kind of like we were the police officers.
00:28:09.400
They would just attack me, and I wrote the book, All the President's Money, because the
00:28:16.460
They would either say there was no evidence – and honestly, a lot of conservative media
00:28:24.460
Like when – I'll give you an example, and I write about it in the book.
00:28:28.040
Tony Bobulinski did a great job in a public hearing, and he said that the money from China
00:28:36.440
I mean, this is the guy that was in on the deal.
00:28:40.980
It was $8 million, but then he got into an argument, if you'll remember, with Ocasio-Cortez
00:28:52.680
Well, that's all that was on the conservative media, the clip of Bobulinski getting into
00:29:01.240
But at the end of the day, the message from the hearing should have been that the money
00:29:08.000
wasn't from a Chinese energy company like the media said.
00:29:11.500
The money was a bribe from the Chinese Communist Party.
00:29:15.080
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Podcast.
00:29:18.080
Hear more of this interview and others with the full show podcast, available wherever you
00:29:23.240
I think the last time I talked to this guy, he talked to me while I was doing the CNN TV
00:29:32.260
He has become, I mean, he writes, he directs, he produces, he's an actor.
00:29:39.140
He is somebody that has grown from just an actor that you might see on television to done
00:29:47.700
He's currently doing Pawpaw in Disney Junior's animated series Pupstruction.
00:29:54.080
He's reprising, or is it reprising, reprising his role as Dale Ballard from Young Sheldon
00:30:00.880
in its upcoming spinoff, George and Mandy's First Marriage.
00:30:09.400
He was in movies like The Family Stone, Poltergeist, I forgot about that, The Voice of Mr. Incredible,
00:30:15.420
Hayden Fox in Coach, and he is now starring as Buck, a struggling Wisconsin farmer in the
00:30:33.660
I think the last time you were on the show, I apologize for wrecking your career by having
00:30:42.060
You know, I wasn't a curse around your neck, because you are great.
00:30:53.620
I thought it was maybe Fox, but I'm not sure I remember.
00:30:59.120
See, I thought so, too, but Stu said it was CNN.
00:31:04.340
Because I remember you being very brave coming on the show.
00:31:09.140
He's never going to work a day again in his life.
00:31:12.320
You were doing all those uncover and discover things.
00:31:34.720
So I want to talk to you about the new film that's coming out, Green and Gold.
00:31:43.680
And when I say a rancher, I own cattle and somebody else does all the work.
00:31:50.020
But I live in a small town, you know, half the year of about 400 people.
00:32:06.280
It's, you know, my family has a farm in South Dakota.
00:32:15.140
And then my wife has a family farm in South Dakota also, which is really, she comes from
00:32:25.320
And it's, it's one of those things that I think it goes unnoticed because the people
00:32:33.000
that are employed in the task of doing the work don't have time.
00:32:46.860
And what happens is it just, they get turned under like this, like the field, you know,
00:32:58.960
So this is, this is a movie about bringing that awareness, but also it's a, it's a bigger
00:33:05.400
It's, it's about the heart and soul of who these people might be and are, I think.
00:33:12.800
I tell you, I, you know, Thomas Jefferson, when they were, you know, designing the jury,
00:33:19.900
And some of the founders said, we should just have scholars, et cetera, et cetera.
00:33:23.620
And he said, I trust people that have their hands in the dirt every day.
00:33:31.740
I think when we moved off of farms into cities, we lost a lot, a lot.
00:33:48.940
I was going to say, it's also though an understanding.
00:33:50.800
I mean, when you, when you grow up on a farm, you live on a farm, you, you, you know where
00:33:55.200
your food comes from, you know, the circle of life.
00:33:58.240
You just, you just have a different, you know, you have to depend on God and your neighbor.
00:34:05.740
I mean, it's just lessons that you don't get necessarily, you know, living in the
00:34:14.000
And the values that, uh, they hold dear and, and that they, that they believe in are, you
00:34:22.980
know, they're traditional and they mean something.
00:34:26.960
They may be conservative, but, um, for them and their lifestyle, uh, it's reflected in how
00:34:37.500
And I think, um, I think all we can do, I think it's, it's great that we can somehow
00:34:45.340
bring an issue to the floor that, uh, says something about these people and who they are.
00:34:56.260
I read that, uh, by the end of the film, everybody, it was a passion project for everybody.
00:35:02.640
Um, and on day one, you walked in and said, Hey, uh, you know, I, I, I, I know we're not
00:35:10.840
putting a lot of money into this, but I think it should have, you know, different cameras
00:35:15.720
or, you know, additional cameras, et cetera, et cetera.
00:35:18.240
And you just took it out of your, your salary because you believed in this so much.
00:35:25.220
Well, they didn't have the money to do what they wanted to do.
00:35:29.100
The cinema, as you know, um, the, the scope of the movie is the land and the land is what
00:35:36.200
endears ourselves to who these people are and beauty of it.
00:35:41.460
And that kind of scope, you need, you need processing and you need the ability to go out
00:35:55.700
And, uh, boy, they did, they got a, they really got a, it's a beautiful film.
00:36:00.740
So, so, you know, we've, we've talked a little bit about message, but if you haven't seen the
00:36:10.020
movie, you know, I have, but most people can't see it yet, um, explain the plot, sell it to
00:36:17.400
somebody who's like, okay, well, I like farmers, et cetera, but sell the movie.
00:36:21.820
A fourth generation guy, kind of a crusty guy, I've been, you know, he's got a farm that
00:36:29.280
he's trying to farm organically and he doesn't use machinery.
00:36:34.200
He's got some draft horses, but he has the best clover in the area.
00:36:41.280
And, uh, he's got the best cream and the best butter and he's proud of it and he's trying
00:36:48.540
to make a go of it, but the milk prices are rising and falling and sure enough, he's going
00:36:57.980
He's just trying to hold it together for his, got a granddaughter who's working on the farm
00:37:03.940
and, uh, he's, he's already lost a daughter, um, to a dream that she had and he doesn't
00:37:16.960
And so it's a story of, it's a story of trying to keep something you love and making a mistake
00:37:24.740
probably in how you're raising your granddaughter and then seeing the repercussions of that.
00:37:31.900
Um, and also bringing a guy to faith that, uh, is, I think one of those people that's,
00:37:43.220
Um, so I, I really identified with it in that regard.
00:37:49.960
I, I, I related to, uh, I mean, I've had this conversation over and over again.
00:37:56.080
Um, my kids want to live in a city and I wanted to live in a city when I was a kid, but,
00:38:01.620
uh, you know, we bought this ranch and I hope my kids will take it for generations because
00:38:12.280
I think you just, it's just more rooted in reality.
00:38:15.860
Um, but you know, sitting there looking at your kids and going, are they going to take
00:38:20.840
Especially if it's been in your family for, you know, generations.
00:38:24.820
It's kind of the Yellowstone story really without all the killing and stuff.
00:38:41.560
It's about heart, you know, and it's also about trying to find it.
00:38:44.900
And that's what it's so, I love about the movie.
00:38:50.180
Well, I want to thank you for coming on the program and, uh, uh, enjoy talking to you again.
00:38:58.000
I mean, you were brave when really no one was brave.
00:39:02.200
Do you think things are changing or is it just going out of Hollywood?
00:39:11.460
I think what we're reading is, uh, is in the Bible and, um, and what we're seeing is
00:39:33.940
I, I tell you, I, I am still there that we are living in, uh, those days.
00:39:40.680
Uh, uh, some of the, I feel like the Lord gave us a little bit of a pressure relief, but,
00:39:50.080
I mean, he's only going to do what we can't do and we couldn't have averted that bullet,
00:39:55.280
Uh, and, uh, and now we're expected to do all the hard work and, you know, it's, uh,
00:40:06.260
And we have to do the most with it and do what we can to, um, to get the message to people.
00:40:28.880
It is coming to theaters nationwide on January 31st.
00:40:37.120
Several people on the staff and I have watched it and, uh, highly recommend it.
00:40:48.520
What's the difference between DIY and doing it yourself?
00:40:52.220
It's the difference between a part-time passion and a full-time business.
00:40:56.980
Wix gives you the power to turn your passion into a moneymaker.
