00:00:30.000 And now, a Blaze Media Podcast.

00:00:34.460 I want you to close your eyes for a second and think about America and the image that comes to mind.

00:00:43.300 America.

00:00:45.480 Maybe you think of our flag, fireworks, 4th of July, burgers, fries.

00:00:51.460 I mean, that comes to mind without anybody saying America to me an awful lot.

00:00:54.880 But when you really think about America, I think mountains, I think West, I think cowboys.

00:01:01.860 The image of a cowboy perfectly captures the American spirit.

00:01:10.600 It's a man taming the land, the West, working with the environment and with God,

00:01:18.980 just carving a path through life, taming the animal, loving the animal, working with the animal, hardworking, godly, adventurous, sometimes barfighting, but it's America.

00:01:37.520 The cowboy is a man who believes in justice and family, has a healthy dose of, you know, kind of rowdy independence, but also is a man of his word.

00:01:49.860 The cowboy contract is a handshake looking a man in the eye saying, I give my word.

00:01:54.920 The American cowboy, the American cowboy, a free man.

00:02:01.580 Today, I'm going to talk to a real cowboy.

00:02:05.260 I mean, he plays one on TV, but he is, he is that guy.

00:02:11.380 He has been his whole life.

00:02:13.700 You'll know him as Lloyd Pierce, the oldest ranch hand on the fictional Yellowstone Dutton Ranch.

00:02:19.180 But today, I want you to meet the man behind the role to find out why he is speaking up on issues that matter most to him.

00:02:29.520 America needing more cowboys. 0.57

00:02:33.260 Welcome to the podcast from the smash hit television show, Yellowstone, actor and actual American cowboy, Forrey J. Smith.

00:02:44.720 Let me tell you for 60 seconds about relief factor.

00:02:47.520 You can try to deal with the aches and pains in your bodies and life.

00:02:51.300 Sometimes it gets really, really bad.

00:02:54.760 Some of the most popular stuff for bad pain just masks it and going about your day as if nothing is going on and you're all in a fog.

00:03:02.660 You can grin and bear it, you know, and and try to live your life.

00:03:07.260 But if you want to try something different, something better, something that's natural, that actually helps your body fight the pain,

00:03:14.380 because the pain is really most of it comes from inflammation.

00:03:17.840 Let me tell you about relief factor, a daily 100 percent drug free supplement that doesn't mask your pain for a short time.

00:03:24.720 It helps your body eliminate it for good.

00:03:27.700 It uses a unique formula of natural ingredients to support your body's response to inflammation.

00:03:32.440 Over a million people have tried relief factor.

00:03:35.520 About 70 percent of them go on to order more.

00:03:38.360 Give relief factor a try with their three week quick starts.

00:03:41.660 Nineteen ninety five less than a dollar a day.

00:03:43.740 Try it. See how it can help you get your life back.

00:03:46.740 Relieffactor dot com.

00:03:48.000 One eight hundred for relief.

00:03:50.140 I feel like I should call you Lloyd, but I know you're for it, but I feel like I know you.

00:04:13.340 How much how much how much foray is in Lloyd and how much Lloyd is in foray?

00:04:21.140 Well, that's a good good question.

00:04:24.220 Um, I met Taylor on Heller High Water.

00:04:27.140 It's working as a wrangler as the head wrangler on that.

00:04:30.180 And I had horses and cows and my dogs and everything on that.

00:04:33.540 And he told me after I had some issues.

00:04:39.480 I had to get in the first 80s face, poked him in the chest.

00:04:43.620 And I had the guy that hired me, the livestock coordinator, move my truck and trailer.

00:04:50.640 I didn't know who it was.

00:04:52.120 I rode up my rope team, pulled him straight out the door.

00:04:56.020 You don't move my truck and trailer and reached in, took the keys out.

00:04:59.420 Right.

00:04:59.640 And rode back over next to Taylor.

00:05:02.120 And here he come.

00:05:03.240 And he's like, he won't be here tomorrow.

00:05:05.520 He's run off.

00:05:06.620 I'll run him off.

00:05:07.600 He'll be gone tomorrow.

00:05:09.720 And, uh, he couldn't do it.

00:05:12.140 I had half a dozen horses, 30 head of cows.

00:05:15.500 Right.

00:05:15.740 Ten head of burrows, you know, all leased and under my name on the movie.

00:05:20.320 He, you know, there's no way he could, and, uh, but what was really cool and I knew that

00:05:25.340 me and Taylor would that, is he leaned over to my, my horse and looked the guy in the eye 1.00

00:05:31.980 and goes, try and go move my truck and see what happens, asshole. 0.99

00:05:37.300 I was like, yeah, yeah. 1.00

00:05:39.860 But you are, I mean, I can.

00:05:41.120 He told me later, he says, yeah, I'm writing a modern, been contracted to do a modern,

00:05:45.360 write a modern Western and you're going to be in it.

00:05:47.760 Wow.

00:05:48.680 Wow.

00:05:49.000 I said, yeah, I've heard that BS before.

00:05:51.540 Yeah.

00:05:51.620 This is not from me though, you have.

00:05:54.160 And I'll tell you what, Taylor Sheridan's been a man of his word for me.

00:05:57.180 That's cool.

00:05:59.000 Uh, you are a, I mean, you're a real cowboy.

00:06:01.480 I mean, I mean, you can tell by the hat, first of all.

00:06:04.320 Yeah.

00:06:04.720 Cool hat.

00:06:05.660 Thank you.

00:06:07.020 I should take it off proper etiquette for me to take it off while we're doing this interview,

00:06:12.040 but.

00:06:12.780 You will wear it if you want.

00:06:14.900 Well, that's the way I was raised.

00:06:17.340 Yeah.

00:06:17.580 There is cowboy etiquette, real cowboy etiquette.

00:06:21.480 Yeah.

00:06:21.740 Uh, I didn't know that about the hat.

00:06:24.660 I'm going to have to remember.

00:06:25.440 You can't, you, I know you wouldn't eat, you wouldn't have it often at a dinner table.

00:06:29.480 You wouldn't wear it, but you don't wear it.

00:06:30.960 You take it off in honor of your meal and to show respect to the people that are feeding

00:06:37.080 you that day.

00:06:38.020 Yeah.

00:06:38.240 Why are cowboy movies making a comeback right now?

00:06:43.900 I think there's something about the cowboy that is so American.

00:06:51.760 Yeah.

00:06:52.760 We're, we're the only country.

00:06:54.600 This is where cowboy came from.

00:06:56.220 The term cowboy originated in Texas during the civil war.

00:07:01.120 The older men who would leave to go off to fight the war.

00:07:05.020 So even if you were a girl of the family, if it was your responsibility to ride the sections 0.70

00:07:11.200 and keep track of your cattle, you were called the cowboy of the family.

00:07:17.200 And that was an honor when you went to town, you, I'm the cowboy of the family.

00:07:21.600 So yeah, it's original right here in America.

00:07:25.960 There's no, this is where it originated.

00:07:28.960 Now we, we had the vaqueros from Mexico and we, a lot of our culture is derived from them.

00:07:39.100 And, uh, what is the culture?

00:07:41.320 What is the culture of a cowboy?

00:07:43.280 Rodeos originated.

00:07:44.540 They were having rodeos in Southern California before, uh, so it, it is rodeo.

00:07:50.120 Before we were even in the United States.

00:07:52.880 Really?

00:07:53.220 Yes.

00:07:54.080 The cowboy culture is, uh.

00:07:56.380 Wait, wait, wait.

00:07:56.960 I want to get this right.

00:07:57.940 Cause rodeo drive, we always joke about we're going to the rodeo.

00:08:02.260 Right.

00:08:02.760 Is that the Spanish version of rodeo?

00:08:07.120 Yes.

00:08:07.600 Rodeo means roundup.

00:08:09.740 Roundup.

00:08:10.520 Yeah.

00:08:11.460 And they would have roundups and then they would have roping and bucking horse riding contests.

00:08:17.420 Yeah.

00:08:17.540 Um, Chief Rojas, I've read all his books and, uh, he explains it in there and they were

00:08:25.160 bronc riders, them guys.

00:08:26.740 You know, I'm, I'm, uh, I just love, I think his name is Bill Pickett.

00:08:31.840 Yeah.

00:08:32.440 Yeah.

00:08:33.080 I love, I love his stories.

00:08:35.380 Yeah.

00:08:35.640 They're great.

00:08:36.680 He's fantastic.

00:08:38.140 He's fantastic.

00:08:39.640 Um, so we, you were going into the cowboy culture.

00:08:42.840 What is it?

00:08:43.280 Um, how do I explain that route?

00:08:50.780 I was, uh, 16 years old.

00:08:54.480 I was on the JV basketball team and we didn't get to practice till right, till after varsity

00:09:00.800 got to practice.

00:09:01.560 So I'd have time to go home after school and feed the cows and then, uh, um, go back to

00:09:08.740 basketball practice.

00:09:10.080 My granddad had broke his hip and, um, he'd just come, he said, Hey kid, I think I can

00:09:15.700 drive the truck for you.

00:09:17.640 Usually what I'd do is I'd put it in compound and put a two by four against the gas pedal

00:09:22.680 and then get in the back and throw the hay out. 1.00

00:09:25.700 And it's, it's quite a ride cause you got all them frozen cow turds out there that trucks 0.86

00:09:30.820 bouncing over.

00:09:32.120 So yeah, I was grateful to have him come out and drive the truck for me.

00:09:36.340 And then we got done.

00:09:37.520 He says, I have time to look at my cows kid.

00:09:40.080 I said, yes, sir.

00:09:41.560 We're driving around through the cows and he says, you know, we're not going to make,

00:09:45.000 I'm not even going to break even this year.

00:09:47.040 Maybe it, I think we're cows were selling for 35 cents a pound then or calves.

00:09:52.900 Yeah.

00:09:53.720 And, uh, he says, if I could get 39 cents a pound, I could, I could break even. 0.98

00:09:58.260 I gotta, he says, my kid's out here busting his butt. 0.99

00:10:01.440 And, you know, I just, this is ridiculous. 0.99

00:10:05.240 I said, well, why are we doing it? 0.89

00:10:06.600 Granddad?

00:10:07.960 He looks at me when he gets, you know, son, we're helping feed America.

00:10:13.000 We're helping feed our country.

00:10:14.720 And that's kind of the cowboy culture right there.

00:10:19.280 Um, is it's, there's a bigger thing than what we're doing out here today.

00:10:26.280 You know, we're helping feed our country.

00:10:28.760 We're maintaining the grass and, and, uh, rotating our pastures to keep everything right.

00:10:35.820 And it drives me nuts that these, um, greenies come in and try to lecture people who are farmers 1.00

00:10:44.600 and who are ranchers.

00:10:45.900 They care more about the land than anybody in any city that has, you know, has some PhD

00:10:53.220 on how to take care.

00:10:54.660 I mean, they care about the land.

00:10:57.420 They take care of the land.

00:10:58.820 The worst, the worst neighbor I have is the Bureau of Land Management.

00:11:03.820 BLM. 0.97

00:11:04.700 They're horrible. 0.98

00:11:05.640 Oh, it's horrible.

00:11:06.860 I've dealt with them.

00:11:08.240 I was on a ranch in Southern Arizona.

00:11:12.580 I left Hollywood and I went back to cowboy and I'd, I'd went in, uh, the BLM guy come over.

00:11:19.920 He was going to find me for over grazing this one pasture.

00:11:24.020 And I said, well, I'll tell you what part, you come back after the, after the monsoons.

00:11:30.900 And if that pasture doesn't come back better than it ever has been, you can find out, you

00:11:37.520 can go ahead and find me.

00:11:38.600 And, uh, I said, you go tell my boss what I said and everything.

00:11:43.980 Well, what I'd done was I'd put them cows in there and they'd ate off all the weeds in 0.96

00:11:48.460 the spring.

00:11:50.080 And, uh, so then when the monsoons did come, the weeds were all gone.

00:11:55.100 It looked like a golf course out there.

00:11:57.300 And, uh, I said, yeah, that leaving 50, 60% that leaves the weeds.

00:12:04.180 And I says, we need to graze it down to 20, 25% like I did.

00:12:09.460 And then it comes back.

00:12:10.900 The grass comes back.

00:12:12.440 And I'd learned that from working at the empire ranch, Mac Donaldson.

00:12:16.620 He's a great, um, man for the land and, and taking wrote.

00:12:22.920 He's one I learned rotations from.

00:12:24.920 Um, and, uh, yeah, yeah, it's just nuts that they don't think we're taking the best care

00:12:31.880 of the land.

00:12:32.300 Another thing, Glenn, that really gets me is the cow farts and the cow manure.

00:12:39.320 We used to have 60 million buffalo and no telling how many elk running across the plains.

00:12:45.900 And they were farting animals.

00:12:48.960 Bigger farting animals.

00:12:50.660 Yeah.

00:12:50.800 And now people are, yeah, it's, well, can you explain this?

00:12:56.380 I mean, I don't know if you would have any, I can give you a theory.

00:13:00.080 I don't know if I can explain it.

00:13:03.000 Uh, I, I live, uh, down the street, probably like 20 miles away, uh, down the street from

00:13:10.340 a guy who has huge Buffalo ranch.

00:13:12.040 She has about five, 5,000 Buffalo.

00:13:14.120 Yeah.

00:13:15.580 The most amazing thing you can see is them coming over the hill.

00:13:21.220 Yeah.

00:13:21.740 Um, and you can see how much of them are beefalo as they look more and more like cows and how

00:13:29.760 much really are bison, you know, are close to bison.

00:13:32.700 There are no pure bison except in Yellowstone.

00:13:36.600 Yeah.

00:13:36.840 And it's my understanding that they sometimes thin the herd and they just kill them instead

00:13:43.660 of giving them to ranches so we can have purebred Buffalo. 0.84

00:13:49.860 The only pure Buffalo or bison is owned by the government.

00:13:55.680 Did you know that?

00:13:56.620 No, I didn't know.

00:13:57.280 Oh my gosh.

00:13:58.140 I didn't know that.

00:13:58.880 He told me that and I'm like, you've got to be kidding me.

00:14:01.160 And he's like, we beg, we beg for the bison. 0.83

00:14:04.760 They slaughter them and bury them.

00:14:07.660 Oh, all these people going hungry.

00:14:14.260 It's about one of the best meats you can eat.

00:14:16.740 Oh, it's so good.

00:14:17.700 So good for you.

00:14:18.740 And good for you.

00:14:19.600 Yeah.

00:14:19.780 Yeah.

00:14:19.900 Yeah.

00:14:20.060 Yeah.

00:14:20.280 And, um, people don't know this Corriente and Longhorn are the most healthiest beef you

00:14:29.320 can eat.

00:14:29.860 The low in cholesterol and, and, uh, yeah, it's the, and you know, the Longhorn.

00:14:37.680 Yeah.

00:14:37.880 That's where it all come from was the Longhorn.

00:14:40.160 Yeah.

00:14:40.680 Um, and then Buffalo, it's, yeah, I, I just, there's so much waste in this country.

00:14:48.040 We, um, like right there, um, my cousin, Oklahoma, he's got 80 acres of pigs are taking over hogs. 0.80

00:14:57.860 And I said, well, wild, yeah, well, they've intermixed and, yeah.

00:15:01.940 Yeah.

00:15:02.040 Yeah.

00:15:02.600 And, uh, she said, well, we'll go down there and have us a hog killing. 1.00

00:15:06.800 Yeah.

00:15:07.240 Whenever, whenever you're ready.

00:15:08.540 I said, yeah, we'll wait till after the freeze where we can donate the meat, you know, and

00:15:14.840 I see all these roadkill.

00:15:18.640 There's a lot of good, like, especially around Rio de Janeiro, New Mexico, there's elk and

00:15:23.520 deer all the time on the side of the road.

00:15:25.880 Um, we have, we have deer kills all the time.

00:15:29.120 And when I first moved up into the mountains with real people, not city people, um, you

00:15:35.080 know, somebody hits a deer, boom, they put it back in the back of their truck and, you

00:15:40.660 know, eat it, not just push it off to the side, bleed it out.

00:15:44.680 Yeah.

00:15:44.880 I was, uh, we had two cows hit on the County road, Montana's open range, like, um, New Mexico

00:15:54.960 and Arizona also, meaning if you don't want cows on your property that you got to put

00:16:00.160 a fence up and fence them out.

00:16:02.740 And, uh, so granddad, we got two dead cows.

00:16:08.000 He got the driver and they have had to pay and everything, but he called the two teeth

00:16:13.440 crow family in the hell in the Valley. 0.53

00:16:15.820 They came up there and the only thing left to them two cows was the gut pile. 0.55

00:16:23.820 So, um, the manure pile and blood stains.

00:16:27.480 And we later on had some killed on the railroad and of course it's up to the railroad to keep

00:16:33.180 their fences up.

00:16:34.800 So they had to pay granddad for them cows. 0.97

00:16:37.020 But again, he called the two teeth and they come up there and, uh, you know, them cows had

00:16:45.180 been dead for, Oh, probably 12 hours.

00:16:48.740 Um, they didn't care and come bled them and they took everything. 0.67

00:16:53.560 Wow.

00:16:54.060 And, uh, it's, so that's the way I was raised.

00:16:57.980 And I was raised one of the reasons I think, uh, I'm so healthy in my older age.

00:17:03.460 I got a good lady that is on top of it. 1.00

00:17:07.060 Yeah.

00:17:07.400 But I was raised on a garden about the only canned things we ate were, um, McNally's chili

00:17:15.780 and canned peaches.

00:17:18.300 Everything else was out of the garden.

00:17:20.580 All our meat was either wild or off the ranch.

00:17:24.920 And, uh, I think we have really screwed our food up.

00:17:28.660 Oh man.

00:17:29.840 Yeah.

00:17:30.320 And it's like 30% of our beef now comes out of Brazil.

00:17:35.680 I know.

00:17:36.180 We don't know what it's been done to it.

00:17:39.360 You know, what did they inject in it before it got butchered?

00:17:42.900 Right.

00:17:43.140 How are they butchering it?

00:17:44.300 We have no clue.

00:17:45.500 I know.

00:17:46.540 I don't know why we can't get, um, what do they call it?

00:17:52.780 Where it's signed and say, this is USA raised.

00:17:56.400 This is USA.

00:17:57.240 Well, they have the little flag that says product of USA.

00:17:59.860 That doesn't, that's not it.

00:18:01.680 That means it was, it was butchered or packaged here in the USA.

00:18:05.680 Yeah.

00:18:06.120 Yes.

00:18:06.640 It doesn't mean it's USA beef.

00:18:08.700 No.

00:18:09.400 And why, why are we having to go to Brazil to, to buy beef?

00:18:16.900 I mean, our ranchers, I think it's, I, the biggest mafia I've ever seen are the meat packing

00:18:22.700 plants.

00:18:23.300 Yep.

00:18:23.640 The, the, what, three or four companies?

00:18:25.700 Yep. 0.58

00:18:26.000 They're absolutely, they're mobsters. 0.99

00:18:29.460 They're mobsters and they rip our farmers off like crazy. 0.99

00:18:33.380 Well. 0.99

00:18:33.860 And at the same time, they're the ones making the fake meat.

00:18:37.380 Yeah.

00:18:38.340 Yeah.

00:18:38.860 And it's making people sick, giving people issues.

00:18:41.840 But you want to talk about mobsters.

00:18:44.900 How about, I can't remember the company's name that the oil companies and car, car companies

00:18:54.640 came all together and made this company that went around and bought all the, the trolleys

00:19:01.780 in LA.

00:19:02.780 It was GM, it was GM and Goodyear.

00:19:07.360 Yeah.

00:19:07.800 But what was the name?

00:19:08.740 They, they formed a company.

00:19:10.480 Oh, I don't know.

00:19:11.100 It was a different company.

00:19:13.120 And later on, years later, this is like 57.

00:19:18.540 Yeah.

00:19:18.720 They, they, they do away with all the trolley systems and now they got big stinky or buses

00:19:26.400 that nobody wants to ride on because they're crowded.

00:19:29.100 So they go out and buy cars.

00:19:31.660 That's what they wanted.

00:19:33.200 They want them to buy cars.

00:19:35.000 So they'd be buying cars and gas.

00:19:37.280 And tires.

00:19:38.020 And tires.

00:19:38.740 Yeah.

00:19:40.080 So now we had the best city transportation ever.

00:19:44.180 All the streetcars all over America.

00:19:46.060 Yeah.

00:19:46.520 Yeah.

00:19:47.060 Well, they weren't selling cars.

00:19:48.860 They weren't selling tires.

00:19:50.220 They weren't selling gas.

00:19:51.600 So those companies went together and bought them out.

00:19:54.760 Now that's, that's kind of mobster.

00:19:57.300 Oh yeah, I know.

00:19:57.920 Stuff too.

00:19:58.760 So we have, I mean, I, we started with the cowboy culture and I, I think, and I'd love your

00:20:05.280 point of view on this.

00:20:06.200 I think America has so lost its way on your word is your bond, your handshake, you know,

00:20:15.720 cowboy, uh, your handshake is, is a contract.

00:20:20.640 Um, the, just tell the truth. 0.99

00:20:23.760 Don't bull crap me. 0.70

00:20:25.060 Just tell me, just tell me the truth. 0.98

00:20:27.500 Um, uh, working together.

00:20:30.180 I, when, when we bought our farm, um, in Idaho,

00:20:35.420 we brought the kids out and I was living in New York at the time and I realized I hadn't

00:20:40.620 seen anything but man-made stuff.

00:20:43.980 I couldn't, you're in New York city.

00:20:45.600 You're not seeing the stars.

00:20:47.060 No, you can't see them.

00:20:48.680 And if you don't see the stars, you don't sit there and go, man, are we small?

00:20:53.860 You know what I mean?

00:20:54.860 Yeah.

00:20:55.220 And so we bought a farm so we can move out and have the kids, you know, grow up.

00:21:01.220 And I grew up on my grandma and grandpa's farm, uh, in the summertime.

00:21:08.720 And where was that?

00:21:09.640 It was in Puyallup, Washington.

00:21:11.340 Oh, nice place.

00:21:12.500 Yeah.

00:21:13.180 Or it used to be.

00:21:14.220 Yeah.

00:21:14.520 It used to be.

00:21:15.220 It used to be.

00:21:15.780 Uh, and, uh, and I, at the time I only just wanted to get away.

00:21:23.340 I, it was a big city kid.

00:21:24.720 You know, I just want to live in the big city.

00:21:27.200 Now I get my right arm to get away from even this city and live full time out in the middle

00:21:33.360 of nowhere.

00:21:34.460 Um, because common sense comes back and also caring about your neighbor and not just because

00:21:44.440 you have to, because if you're farmers, you could be the best farmer, but you're going

00:21:49.720 to have a bad year and they'll have a good year and they're going to help you and you

00:21:53.140 better help them because at some point it's going to be you that needs help.

00:21:57.540 Yep.

00:21:58.000 And, and then the fact that you can be the best, but God is required.

00:22:03.580 Yeah.

00:22:04.120 When we moved away and we moved into the cities, all of that was lost.

00:22:09.020 And I think that's what is plaguing us.

00:22:12.040 And I think that's why cowboys are making a comeback because it represents America, true 0.98

00:22:21.360 America.

00:22:23.100 Yeah.

00:22:23.740 Um, Marx and Hitler both, if they knew that if they control the children, they control the 0.94

00:22:33.000 future and that people that had no faith are easier to bend.

00:22:37.480 Um, and, um, my grandmother taught me, uh, my, my cousins were Catholic and we go to the

00:22:47.260 Catholic church with them and midnight mass and stuff at Christmas and they're all getting

00:22:52.060 baptized.

00:22:52.480 And I said, grandma, should I get baptized?

00:22:54.720 She goes, no, it's up to you.

00:22:57.300 And I says, well, what religion?

00:22:59.360 She goes, I'm not, I'm not of any denomination.

00:23:03.300 I said, well, how come grandma?

00:23:05.960 She says there's too much blood been spilt between these denominations. 0.94

00:23:10.620 And I don't feel that that's a godly way, but I do know there is a supreme power that

00:23:17.560 there is something else going on in this world and that you need to acknowledge that.

00:23:23.400 And, um, I think it's easier for, uh, cowboys and ranchers and farmers that see it every

00:23:31.980 day, every day, you know, you see the miracle of birth and death and, uh, um, the miracle

00:23:39.840 of things growing and, and just how it all works together.

00:23:44.220 And I realize that, uh, and the beauty of a sunset, you know, uh, or sunrise, um, and

00:23:52.320 the stars, you know, I can't.

00:23:53.960 And honestly, the beauty of people, I love the people of my small town and I, I'm surrounded

00:24:02.760 down here by a lot of great neighbors, but there's a different quality.

00:24:06.460 I was just out in, um, Asheville, uh, South Carolina yesterday, North Carolina yesterday.

00:24:12.340 And I would live with those Appalachian people in a heartbeat. 1.00

00:24:19.940 It's just, it's, it's just different.

00:24:23.000 It's just different.

00:24:24.300 It's great.

00:24:24.860 You know, um, one of, there's two things I'm really proud of.

00:24:30.900 Um, one is being called a legend at rodeos.

00:24:35.780 Um, cause you grew up in rodeos, right?

00:24:37.820 Your mom was a barrel racer. 0.98

00:24:39.100 Yeah.

00:24:39.580 Yeah.

00:24:39.920 My granddad rodeoed back when they'd rode horses to the rodeos and stuff.

00:24:45.620 And the other one is, is everywhere I've lived, I've been called a good neighbor.

00:24:50.220 And that comes from my childhood.

00:24:52.820 Uh, we lived on a hillside mountainside, um, in Montana.

00:24:58.280 There was three families that lived there year round.

00:25:01.060 There was us, Palmer's, my grandpa and grandma, the wing family and Norman Bruce.

00:25:07.660 Then there was a couple other places where people would come and spend the summers, but

00:25:12.700 we depended on each other.

00:25:14.660 We took care of each other.

00:25:16.460 The wings plowed our roads and took care of our roads in the winter.

00:25:19.880 We'd go, granddad and I go, um, castrate their colts in the spring.

00:25:25.060 We'd help them move cattle out on the forest service in the spring and the summer and go

00:25:29.580 gather them and bring them back in the falls.

00:25:31.980 We all just worked together.

00:25:33.440 It was a community.

00:25:35.200 Uh, there was 13 kids in eight grades when I started grade school there at Montana City.

00:25:40.060 My granddad was the self-acclaimed mayor of Montana City and, uh, we all just, and got along.

00:25:49.820 The place I lived at before where I'm at now, my neighbors across the road, their, their politics

00:25:56.820 and mine, for, for example, I opened the barn door and there's a rattlesnake coiled up ready

00:26:05.500 and, um, my neighbor was just across the fence and I says, Hey, uh, you want to relocate

00:26:13.920 this snake?

00:26:14.560 You better get over here before I get to my gun.

00:26:19.240 So boom, he come over and had a little deal.

00:26:22.620 He snared that snake, put him in a bucket, took him off back up on the mountain.

00:26:26.720 Well, um, I shoot the rattlesnakes in my property.

00:26:31.200 Yeah.

00:26:32.060 So that's just kind of showing their, their politics politically go down that line.

00:26:40.560 So we came to an issue where we couldn't get the County to work on our road.

00:26:46.500 So this guy's a computer tech.

00:26:50.460 I mean, he can do some things with computer.

00:26:53.460 And then my other neighbor, he has heavy, heavy equipment.

00:26:56.640 And, uh, so I went into the County commissioner and I told them, we're going to fix our road.

00:27:04.540 You guys won't fix it.

00:27:07.040 And we've, my part, my neighbor on the computer is found where it is a County road.

00:27:13.500 It should be maintained by the County, but you guys don't want to do it.

00:27:17.460 So I'm going to buy the diesel from a one neighbor that has the equipment.

00:27:21.900 This other neighbors got all the permits and everything lined up on the computer to do

00:27:27.800 this.

00:27:28.220 And we're just going to fix our own road.

00:27:30.200 Oh, we're waiting for federal funding.

00:27:32.360 When did this start happening?

00:27:34.160 Everybody waiting for federal funding.

00:27:36.300 I know this is America.

00:27:37.960 We do on our own.

00:27:39.260 I know.

00:27:39.780 And that's what I told them.

00:27:41.200 I says, we'll take care of this.

00:27:43.020 That money should go to the schools or something else.

00:27:45.900 We'll take care of this ourselves.

00:27:47.800 Well, boom, then they all came out and they wanted to see what, you know, they got involved

00:27:53.340 with it, but it bothers me so much.

00:27:57.080 Those neighbors from hell's kitchen.

00:27:59.440 She told me, she said, for, thank you for being such a good neighbor.

00:28:03.860 And I was like, you know, I hope I'm as good a neighbor to you as y'all are to me because

00:28:08.880 they were great.

00:28:09.860 And, but our politics were totally the opposite.

00:28:12.860 Doesn't matter.

00:28:13.480 But it kind of helped, you know, he kind of seen me.

00:28:17.800 My side and I could, he opened my mind up to some other things.

00:28:21.980 And then I was flying to Chicago for a WGN interview and doing a Shriners charity.

00:28:29.320 And on the way up there to Dallas, I stopped in Dallas to go to Larry Mahan's memorial.

00:28:35.220 And I got on the plane.

00:28:36.640 There was an old, he was in his eighties.

00:28:38.780 And then I sat down and he got a grin on his face.

00:28:42.460 This might be an interesting ride.

00:28:45.200 I said, what's that?

00:28:45.920 And he says, cause I think our politics are probably different.

00:28:49.100 And I said, well, let's talk about that.

00:28:51.680 And we had a two hour, whatever it is from Dallas to Chicago, just a good visit.

00:28:57.980 We sat there and visited him.

00:28:59.540 He opened my mind to some things and I opened his mind to some things.

00:29:03.140 And it was just a good visit.

00:29:05.820 And I got off the plane.

00:29:08.100 He was helping some people get their stuff.

00:29:10.800 And he got off before I did.

00:29:13.020 And he waited for me in the tunnel and he shook my hand.

00:29:17.660 He says, this, this is what this country needs more of.

00:29:21.660 And I said, yes, sir.

00:29:23.240 Just sit down.

00:29:24.140 And I said, but what I think, Glenn, is that it's the computers.

00:29:29.220 Everybody can go on.

00:29:30.560 They can, they don't have to compromise in a conversation with you or I.

00:29:35.960 They can go home to their computer and get with their little group. 1.00

00:29:39.920 Oh, what a jerk that guy was. 1.00

00:29:42.180 Oh, yeah. 1.00

00:29:43.040 They don't, they aren't going to listen or, you know, explain themselves.

00:29:47.700 Because they got their own little group they can go back to.

00:29:51.240 People they've never seen probably, you know, and might be controlled by some other group

00:29:59.180 that's wanting to create division in our country.

00:30:04.060 It is, raising kids is so scary right now.

00:30:09.280 Oh, man.

00:30:10.100 Especially public schools.

00:30:11.540 Oh, I mean, I just, my, both my kids, just the last, the two are out of school now.

00:30:21.140 One's 18, one's 20.

00:30:24.200 I was hair raising.

00:30:26.040 It was absolutely hair raising.

00:30:27.960 Because they're dealing with stuff and you're like, I don't, I don't know.

00:30:30.740 This didn't exist.

00:30:31.660 None of this stuff existed.

00:30:33.980 And you feel like, you know, you feel like you're a thousand years old

00:30:39.500 because you're saying the things that you swore you wouldn't say

00:30:42.440 when your grandparents would talk to you.

00:30:44.240 You'd be like, okay, grandpa.

00:30:45.680 You know, it's moved so far in a dangerous direction.

00:30:52.880 You know, my grandpa and grandma didn't trust the government.

00:30:59.320 Mine didn't either.

00:31:01.580 1973, Merle Haggard released, you're walking on the fight inside of me.

00:31:06.040 Um, so we've, we've been in this battle before.

00:31:11.080 I've got great grandfathers that tore up the papers on their wives 1.00

00:31:16.040 because they didn't want any government assistance because they're Indians.

00:31:20.020 And they did not want any government assistance.

00:31:23.000 One of them was from Ireland on my grandmother's side.

00:31:28.920 He came over and they conscripted him into the Union Army

00:31:32.840 before he ever got a foot on America.

00:31:36.080 Wow.

00:31:36.620 Made him mad.

00:31:37.940 So he became a spy for the Confederacy.

00:31:41.180 Jeez.

00:31:42.040 After the war, he moved to Missouri and married a Cherokee lady.

00:31:48.680 And he would, he's like, we don't need any of their help.

00:31:52.280 Tore up the papers.

00:31:53.700 That's what, that's what I found in the, at the hurricane in North Carolina.

00:31:58.140 I mean, they're, they're, they're, they're wondering why they don't matter

00:32:03.520 to the federal government.

00:32:05.140 But, uh, I've two, two, uh, people telling me, one of them set up a, you know,

00:32:14.280 these, all these retired, you know, uh, soldiers and special forces guy

00:32:19.520 that live right in the community or right around.

00:32:21.600 And they set up a clinic because nobody was there.

00:32:25.760 So they just did it themselves.

00:32:27.940 And yesterday or day before FEMA comes in and they said, uh, you know,

00:32:33.500 you don't have a license to, and they said, we've been here for seven days.

00:32:38.660 Move, move on.

00:32:40.440 We're going to continue to do what we know is right.

00:32:43.320 And that's America.

00:32:44.320 That's America.

00:32:45.560 That's America.

00:32:46.460 I want to tell you about the glasses that I'm wearing because they are the

00:32:51.980 best I've ever worn.

00:33:12.280 every day, you can't exactly grin and bear it.

00:34:39.200 Yeah.

00:34:39.620 Big fan.

00:34:40.980 You guys are just...

00:34:42.060 Me too.

00:34:42.500 And I'm so bummed that it's coming apart and, you know, I don't, I don't, you know, I hear

00:34:52.500 both things about Kevin Costner, you know, it's not his fault too.

00:34:57.080 It is his fault.

00:34:58.220 I don't know.

00:35:00.100 I don't either.

00:35:01.080 Yeah.

00:35:01.740 I stay out of that kind of stuff.

00:35:03.180 Yeah, good, good for you.

00:35:05.600 But how bummed are you that...

00:35:07.720 Well, it's a...

00:35:09.720 I'm not really bummed.

00:35:14.000 Really?

00:35:15.260 Kind of.

00:35:16.360 Yes.

00:35:16.880 It was a great ride.

00:35:18.680 I really liked the character I was getting to play.

00:35:23.260 I liked Taylor's writing.

00:35:27.320 That guy's a genius.

00:35:28.360 Oh, yeah, well, yeah, he is a genius.

00:35:32.260 And the way he pulls it off and puts everything together.

00:35:35.800 But it got to be the last season, you know, and you don't know if you're going to work.

00:35:44.140 Well, you know, it just, the turmoil that started there, and it started about the third

00:35:50.620 season when it was a hit.

00:35:52.560 When everybody realized, see, nobody thought in Hollywood, especially, oh, this ain't going

00:35:57.800 to go, you know.

00:35:58.820 In fact, HBO didn't pick it up.

00:36:01.800 When I first got involved, it was Robert Redford and HBO were going to, and then, so...

00:36:10.240 Wow.

00:36:10.760 They didn't think...

00:36:12.280 And then after the second year, and they got this cult following going, now they're all

00:36:17.040 like, whoa, and then...

00:36:19.560 Money in the hands.

00:36:20.620 Yeah, and then this, yeah, this thing started.

00:36:24.660 And it got...

00:36:26.120 Did it break the cast up at all?

00:36:27.840 Not the cast, no.

00:36:29.620 Well, it was one of the cool things about it is how we all came together.

00:36:33.200 It actually probably made our acting in a lot of things better because of how we did come

00:36:41.260 together and gel together as a family.

00:36:43.640 And, but that chaos, I mean, if it was just Yellowstone and, hey, we're going to film May

00:36:57.040 through August, boom, here, it'd be great.

00:37:03.260 But this never knowing, and okay, we're going to go now, and then, oh, now we're pushed.

00:37:08.080 And that's because of the movies that Costner or whoever was doing, right?

00:37:14.000 Right.

00:37:14.280 That's what, breaking it up?

00:37:15.640 Yeah.

00:37:16.120 Well, we don't know.

00:37:17.660 I don't know.

00:37:18.480 Yeah.

00:37:18.600 That's not my wheelhouse.

00:37:20.480 It's just, I know that everybody got put on hold at Elkhart.

00:37:24.380 You know, they send you money and compensate you, but still, you got a life.

00:37:30.120 It was bad for the audience, too.

00:37:33.280 Yeah.

00:37:33.460 You're like, this is the second half, right, of the, what is it, season five?

00:37:39.140 Five, yeah.

00:37:40.140 So, second half.

00:37:41.680 I don't even remember what happened, you know, in the first half.

00:37:45.640 I have to go back and watch it.

00:37:47.660 It just takes so long in between.

00:37:50.800 It's the beginning of the end is what I've been.

00:37:54.380 Yeah, but the tailor's writing that, but whatever happened there and is water under the bridge now and I'm better off and broader and bigger man than I was when we started.

00:38:09.520 And it's just great.

00:38:12.320 Oh, and like I said, all that's out of my, I can't, I don't know what happened there.

00:38:20.680 And I, I don't like, I don't really care, but it's not Yellowstone.

00:38:24.940 It wasn't the script and all of that is beautiful.

00:38:28.600 I would love to go on for 10 years.

00:38:31.260 Yeah.

00:38:31.320 But all that other stuff that came out of this, Taylor and Kevin, I don't know if that's where it all started, if it started somewhere else, all this friction over the money and the power.

00:38:49.300 It's so sad because it was really good.

00:38:53.120 I mean, in a way, in a way, I kind of feel bad for liking the family, you know, because it's almost, it's almost like a cowboy version of the Sopranos.

00:39:04.940 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:39:05.760 With the second year up there, oh, this is a Dallas Sopranos cross.

00:39:11.320 Yeah, yeah, it is.

00:39:12.620 It is.

00:39:14.000 What's cool about when people tell me that is cool is because Patrick Duffy, one of the stars of Dallas.

00:39:19.720 Yeah.

00:39:20.320 It's from right down the road, 30 miles from my house.

00:39:23.300 Really?

00:39:23.860 Boulder, Montana.

00:39:24.480 Really?

00:39:28.580 What's her name?

00:39:29.760 Kelly Riley?

00:39:30.460 Kelly Riley.

00:39:32.160 Great lady.

00:39:33.000 My gosh, that is the best character, I think, the best, I don't know, villain character I've ever seen.

00:39:43.400 She plays it so well, and I had no idea she was from Great Britain.

00:39:48.120 And I read a story, and I don't know if this is true or not, but she said she didn't, she used an American accent the entire time for like the first week

00:39:59.400 because she didn't want people to say, she's British, she's not going to be able to pull this role off. 0.99

00:40:04.520 Right.

00:40:04.740 Is that true?

00:40:05.460 Yeah.

00:40:06.900 It's amazing.

00:40:08.600 She had an acting or speech coach or whatever. 0.89

00:40:14.340 Yeah.

00:40:14.540 And this last season was the first time I ever really ever heard her have trouble with it on, you know.

00:40:24.360 But yeah, I was just, I didn't know either the first couple weeks.

00:40:29.360 And it's, it's an oxymoron, I guess you'd call it.

00:40:34.300 She is just a sweetheart in real life. 0.97

00:40:36.680 And I, how she can play, I mean that.

00:40:39.900 I get people come up and tell me, oh, this is the best of the family.

00:40:43.620 And I'm like, oh.

00:40:45.600 And they go, what?

00:40:46.820 I go, well, you know.

00:40:48.520 So that's kind of, our culture is so weird right now.

00:40:51.800 My wife has a t-shirt that, you know, you know, I'm having a bath day or something. 0.97

00:40:59.260 Right.

00:40:59.500 And the culture, it, the thing I think that is the secret on that is even her, she is fighting against the machine.

00:41:12.460 Yep.

00:41:12.900 You know what I mean?

00:41:13.440 Maybe not fairly at times, but the whole thing is fighting against the machine.

00:41:19.400 Yep.

00:41:20.060 And that's.

00:41:21.060 That's cool.

00:41:22.000 That's cool.

00:41:22.780 That's cool, especially today.

00:41:24.720 Yeah.

00:41:24.980 So you're from Montana.

00:41:27.840 Mm-hmm.

00:41:29.500 I know a lot of people from Montana that are kind of pissed at Yellowstone.

00:41:36.020 Yeah.

00:41:36.300 Yeah.

00:41:37.120 Because you've made.

00:41:38.100 Well, this is what I've got to say to them.

00:41:40.040 And I know what you're talking about because you go in some of the bars, we had trouble.

00:41:46.700 We'd be out filming on the road.

00:41:48.660 People would be flipping us off, call it.

00:41:50.580 And then the other ones, yee-haw, we love you, you know.

00:41:53.440 Yeah.

00:41:53.760 Reminded me of being in Mexico back in the early 80s.

00:41:57.540 I was down there.

00:41:58.040 But this is what I've got to say to you Montanans.

00:42:01.640 I came up there in 2017.

00:42:04.220 I'm from Montana.

00:42:05.740 I love Montana.

00:42:07.560 I worked in the Bitterroot Valley cowboying when I was 19 years old.

00:42:13.500 Montana was ruined when we got there in 2017.

00:42:17.400 It wasn't because of Yellowstone that you guys are selling property to these out-of-staters and stuff.

00:42:24.860 Yeah.

00:42:25.660 Don't blame Yellowstone because it was already messed up when we got there in 2017.

00:42:32.180 And the housing problem is national.

00:42:38.800 It's not just because of Yellowstone in the Bitterroot Valley.

00:42:42.780 This is happening all over the country right now.

00:42:45.680 It's funny because that is the story of Yellowstone.

00:42:49.100 Keep these people out.

00:42:51.880 We want to preserve what we've always had.

00:42:56.480 And these people are coming in.

00:42:58.000 I remember I considered moving to Montana, which I wouldn't now because now the New Yorkers are there and the big money people are there.

00:43:11.060 And I'm like, you come in with your big money and you think you're safe.

00:43:17.240 You know, everybody around you knows things go to hell.

00:43:22.680 You don't know how to survive.

00:43:24.740 You know what I mean?

00:43:26.960 But, you know, when I first got in the movie business and I can't remember, but the girl I was with, she says,

00:43:37.560 how do you get along with all these multimillionaires and everybody, all these big producers and studio execs and everything?

00:43:47.380 You walk right in among them and just boom.

00:43:50.300 I can survive with a knife.

00:43:53.840 She goes, what has that got to do with it?

00:43:56.180 I says, when the world goes to hell, I'll be the one they'll be looking for.

00:44:00.520 That's exactly right.

00:44:01.080 My granddaddy taught me how to survive with a knife.

00:44:03.420 And I said, so I feel just it doesn't matter how much money you got, I can survive.

00:44:13.020 And that's worth a lot of money.

00:44:16.220 And so.

00:44:17.220 You're worth more than money.

00:44:18.720 When money doesn't matter, who cares?

00:44:21.840 And I'm rich in family and friends.

00:44:26.080 I've always felt that way.

00:44:28.200 And I ride good horses and I have good dogs.

00:44:30.880 And I'm a rich man, no matter how much money I got in the bank.

00:44:35.460 Thank God, you know, Taylor Sheridan, I've got some money in the bank.

00:44:39.980 But I look at it as, I look at my life that I was rich.

00:44:47.720 I'm rich, doesn't matter how much money is in the bank because of my friends and my family.

00:44:52.380 So, um, my mom gave me her old one horse trailer, 1957 model bought and paid 500 bucks for it.

00:45:02.240 Me and my little brother stared at the front of that trailer for probably a million miles going down the road in the back of the station wagon.

00:45:09.340 That trailer has been to every rodeo west of the Mississippi and in Canada and the United States.

00:45:15.120 But I pulled into a friend's house with it and needing to do some work on it and stuff.

00:45:21.640 And I had, I, me and this guy rodeoed together and sold Kirby vacuum cleaners together.

00:45:28.580 And I hadn't really been around him for years.

00:45:31.140 I pulled in there with that trailer.

00:45:33.460 I didn't have to go to the parts store.

00:45:35.400 I didn't have to go to the mechanic.

00:45:37.220 I didn't have nothing.

00:45:37.880 We fixed that trailer right up and I pulled it home back to New Mexico.

00:45:43.120 And, uh, that's the kind of friends I have, you know, um,

00:45:47.960 But I think that's the kind of friends that you make when you're in those communities.

00:45:54.540 Yeah.

00:45:55.040 You know, everybody is, I, I, I, uh, I was having a big, uh, family reunion and we had just finished building, uh, the ranch.

00:46:06.660 And we were way behind and all these trucks with furniture and everything coming in.

00:46:13.240 And like, I get off the air and I come upstairs and here are all my neighbors and they're putting sheets on the beds.

00:46:22.820 And I felt so guilty.

00:46:24.980 I'm like, I'm, I'm, you shouldn't do this for me.

00:46:28.120 I'm not a good neighbor yet, please.

00:46:31.100 But it was amazing.

00:46:32.900 And, and I kept saying, please stop, please.

00:46:35.220 We, we can, we can do.

00:46:37.000 No, we're your neighbors.

00:46:38.560 You got relatives coming tomorrow and you're never going to be.

00:46:42.400 I mean, it was like crazy great.

00:46:45.120 Just crazy.

00:46:46.040 I seen it, uh, when my, my dad died, I was seven.

00:46:52.140 When my grandmother died, when I was 11.

00:46:54.280 And, and people came fed our, fed our livestock for us, made meals for us.

00:47:02.340 It was just, uh, I'm, uh, getting choked up remembering how the community just came to us.

00:47:11.320 We didn't make any phone calls.

00:47:13.900 We didn't, they just showed up.

00:47:15.620 And, um, my grandmother's funeral, there wasn't even room in the parking lot for people.

00:47:25.200 I mean, they came from out of the woodwork for my grandma.

00:47:29.960 And, um, but yeah, that's what I was raised with.

00:47:33.500 And, and that's probably why I'm such an American now is because I've seen America at work.

00:47:39.120 I've seen Americans and what they do and, and what they hold special to their heart.

00:47:46.380 So how can we get, because there are in ways to Americas.

00:47:52.680 And, and I think what, I think it's honestly not being around small towns and farmers and everything else.

00:48:02.720 I think the city, and I, I know this for myself.

00:48:05.560 I grew up in a small town, you know, there's garbage on the street.

00:48:08.680 You pick it up, you put it in the trash can.

00:48:10.600 You know what I mean?

00:48:11.160 Yeah.

00:48:11.740 And I was in New York and I had been there for about three years and the taxes were out of control.

00:48:17.140 And I remember walking up to my building and there were newspapers and garbage blowing in the street.

00:48:22.680 And I turned to my friend and I said, how much money do I have to pay for this to be a clean street?

00:48:30.700 And I stopped and I went, I've got to get out of the city.

00:48:34.300 Because I was just, I was mad at the city for not doing something because that's the way you're trained in those big cities.

00:48:42.660 You're trained.

00:48:43.560 You don't do that.

00:48:45.040 And I didn't want to live like that.

00:48:47.080 You know, I didn't want to become that person.

00:48:49.140 How do we, how do we regain this?

00:48:53.720 Well, I'm not sure.

00:48:55.040 I'm trying to do it by example.

00:48:59.820 That's one of the reasons, low down, you know, on the list of reasons, but is to maybe get other people, wake other people up to that.

00:49:12.260 And one of the things I tell people is, you know, I've always, every day I try to make the world a better place.

00:49:21.660 And sometimes all it is, is being able to pick up some trash along the road or, or opening a door for somebody or helping somebody with something.

00:49:32.260 But I've always tried to do something.

00:49:36.800 And that's one of the things, like where I live now, where I, wherever I've lived, I've always cleaned up the road.

00:49:43.180 In front of my camp, when I was cowboying, it was clean.

00:49:49.260 Both my houses now, the borrow pits are clean.

00:49:53.640 There's no trash.

00:49:54.600 But if there's trash, because I live in a 400 person town, if there's trash someplace on the side of the road, I've stopped my truck, picked it all up and put it in the back of the truck and just, you know, take it to the dump or whatever.

00:50:10.720 And you don't think of that.

00:50:12.640 You don't think twice about that in a small town.

00:50:15.660 You don't even think about that in a place like Dallas.

00:50:18.280 When I was a kid, we seen a truck and trailer, a truck pulling out of where we, one of our pasture leases where there's a creek and nice area.

00:50:30.680 People like to come down there and picnic and camp and fish.

00:50:35.280 And granddad got the license plates number.

00:50:38.060 And I said, what are we doing?

00:50:39.480 What are you doing that for?

00:50:40.700 Well, you said, well, sure enough, we ride down there and they'd left their garbage.

00:50:45.780 So granddad says, yeah, I got their license number.

00:50:51.400 So we ride back to the house and he calls his highway patrolman buddy and gets the address of this truck.

00:50:59.740 We go back down and got some feed sacks, went back down, picked up all that garbage.

00:51:06.280 And we went to that guy's house and granddad spreads it out on his lawn.

00:51:11.420 He come out of the house pretty hot.

00:51:13.640 And granddad said, well, you just did this to my lawn, my place. 0.99

00:51:18.280 This is your garbage. 0.99

00:51:20.140 Granddad tried to lure him out in the street because he wasn't going to hit him on his own property. 1.00

00:51:25.960 Granddad wanted to.

00:51:27.660 And I think that man knew it.

00:51:29.580 And he knew that he had a whooping coming. 0.96

00:51:32.720 And we didn't have much trouble with garbage after that. 0.79

00:51:37.600 And somehow the word got around.

00:51:40.980 It gets around.

00:51:43.240 And, you know, it's funny.

00:51:44.840 When I was down on that ranch right on the Mexican border, I had taken about four days to fill up a storage tank for this one pasture.

00:51:56.080 And I go out.

00:51:59.400 I don't have any pressure in my tank.

00:52:01.220 So I ride the line and I go up there.

00:52:03.400 And what they had done was the illegals had come across and then knocked that spigot off that 10,000 gallon water tank to fill up their jugs. 0.54

00:52:13.260 And then let it drain.

00:52:14.800 Oh, my gosh.

00:52:15.660 I'm mad.

00:52:16.980 That's four days out of my life it takes to pump that full.

00:52:20.860 You know, I got to go check the pump.

00:52:22.560 Got to take gas back to the gym.

00:52:24.780 You know, and so I rode home.

00:52:28.580 I switched horses.

00:52:29.500 I got every gun I had that I could carry on a horse.

00:52:33.300 And I tracked them down.

00:52:35.020 Well, they're laid up during the heat of the day.

00:52:38.800 And I went, I'm too mad to speak Mexican USOBs.

00:52:42.640 I'm tired of this.

00:52:43.720 You guys leave my gates open.

00:52:46.680 You just drained a 10,000 gallon tank.

00:52:50.380 And this ain't the first time.

00:52:52.260 I says, you're in my, you're at my barn every night.

00:52:55.200 When I turn the lights off at 1030, the dogs would go off.

00:52:59.240 And I'd find toilet paper, clothes where they change clothes in my barn and stuff.

00:53:03.920 They come up and fill their water jugs.

00:53:07.540 So I was like, guys, I don't call anybody on you.

00:53:11.480 I let you do your thing.

00:53:12.880 Now, I want my gates closed and leave my waters alone.

00:53:18.360 You're causing me work.

00:53:21.840 And that, we were well about 15 miles north of the border then.

00:53:26.600 So a couple days later, I jumped some tracks going down, man, they left my gate.

00:53:32.860 And the heifers and the cows are going to be mixed up. 0.54

00:53:36.400 No, they had tried to close.

00:53:38.540 They didn't get it closed right.

00:53:40.260 But they tried.

00:53:40.860 Just in two days, that had got around all over the border that, hey, this vaquero, I mean, I give them food.

00:53:49.820 I give them water, whatever they need.

00:53:52.380 And when you're that close to the border, you have to get along.

00:53:58.760 Because they can send somebody up there and snuff you and the person be back in Mexico before anybody even knows you're missing or gone. 0.97

00:54:08.460 And I know of cases where that's happened.

00:54:13.120 And so the Border Patrol, I tried to talk to them before when I first moved there.

00:54:18.340 I was like, hey, why don't you guys drive through my yard when you're coming and going to work?

00:54:23.940 Just drive.

00:54:24.540 No, they wouldn't have nothing.

00:54:25.760 They wouldn't help me.

00:54:26.640 I had a truck stolen.

00:54:28.080 I went to all the authorities and gave them the truck and told them I had people seen it being driven down across the border.

00:54:40.300 Nobody could find my truck.

00:54:42.200 I went to the feed store to my buddy, Carlos, and I said, hey, call one of your buddies down there.

00:54:49.360 And there's a little town called San Carlos.

00:54:51.800 And we found my truck.

00:54:54.640 We can't carry guns or nothing into Mexico.

00:55:00.700 Everybody in San Carlos around my truck had a gun or a knife and stuff on them.

00:55:06.120 I didn't even dare open my mouth.

00:55:08.660 I'm like, you know, what am I going to do?

00:55:12.100 They're still driving my truck in Mexico.

00:55:15.360 Yeah.

00:55:16.360 How much?

00:55:17.160 Are you still that close to the border?

00:55:19.160 No, I live 60 miles south of Albuquerque now.

00:55:22.100 I packed a gun.

00:55:24.840 I slept with a gun.

00:55:26.620 And that weighs on a man.

00:55:29.860 And, you know, if all the Americans, like, knew what went on down there at the border, I think they'd want a fence.

00:55:37.900 They're starting to see it, though, in their own communities all across this country.

00:55:43.260 But I've seen the cartel.

00:55:46.200 Whenever you found luggage, it was always a woman's luggage because a cartel would steal them and take them. 1.00

00:55:55.960 The women, most women in them groups would be wearing ball caps and pants and trying to look as much like a man as they could. 1.00

00:56:05.980 Because they're spotters, they're scouts watching everything that goes on down there on that border.

00:56:13.080 I had a Border Patrol guy.

00:56:15.080 I'm following tracks.

00:56:16.620 And they're on their four-wheelers and stuff.

00:56:20.160 Automatic weapons.

00:56:21.360 You know, they're decked out.

00:56:23.460 I got my six-shooter and my rifle.

00:56:26.920 And I'm following cows.

00:56:27.940 Don't go down there.

00:56:29.000 Don't go down there.

00:56:29.960 I'm like, I got to go after these cows.

00:56:33.260 And they're like, no, no, don't.

00:56:35.020 And we're like two miles from the border.

00:56:39.220 Don't go down there.

00:56:40.360 They've got guns.

00:56:42.540 Say, hey, you guys, aren't you the Border Patrol?

00:56:45.520 Aren't you supposed to be patrolling that?

00:56:48.120 And they're like, yeah, we can't get in a confrontation with them.

00:56:52.020 I'm like, well, I'm going after my cows.

00:56:54.180 And sure enough, there was guys in camouflage with automatic weapons and stuff.

00:56:59.520 And I just, hey, don't ask me vacas, amigos.

00:57:03.140 And I rode on through and picked up my cows.

00:57:07.560 What does that mean?

00:57:09.080 I don't speak Spanish.

00:57:10.600 What did you just say?

00:57:11.500 Oh, where are my cows, amigo, friend.

00:57:16.000 I had one case where I was following tracks.

00:57:20.180 And they go under the fence.

00:57:23.960 And I'm like, how does this work?

00:57:25.400 And I reach and grab the steel post.

00:57:28.600 They had cut the steel posts off at the ground level.

00:57:33.620 And it was in a gully or a gulch like that.

00:57:38.520 And sure enough, laying over there, a six-foot stick,

00:57:43.840 you prop that stick underneath where the posts were cut,

00:57:47.680 my cows could walk right through the fence. 0.94

00:57:50.320 So I'm going to go down and get my cows.

00:57:52.480 I don't even get to the gate, just a range gate like every ranch has into Mexico.

00:58:00.320 In fact, I'd been into Mexico more times through range gates like that

00:58:04.160 than I have legally across the border.

00:58:08.000 Boom.

00:58:08.940 I don't get the gate open, and they're on me.

00:58:12.760 They're not going to let me into Mexico.

00:58:15.500 The federales.

00:58:17.480 Federales.

00:58:18.220 Wow.

00:58:18.700 So the next day, I went back with my dogs,

00:58:23.820 and I brought me a little herd of cows on the U.S. side and held them up.

00:58:29.340 And I propped the fence up and sent my dogs down there into Mexico 0.99

00:58:33.120 because I could see my cows.

00:58:35.720 And they sent them dogs down there, 0.98

00:58:37.260 and they went and brought them cows up to the other herd.

00:58:41.020 And them federales had their guns on my dogs. 0.99

00:58:44.540 They were liking it.

00:58:45.700 Amazing.

00:58:46.220 I hollered and let them know, hey, I'm getting my cows back.

00:58:50.020 And I got my cows back.

00:58:51.520 There was three cows with a tight bag, meaning full.

00:58:55.120 They hadn't been nursed.

00:58:57.120 And them other calves, the grass-fat, milk-fat calf,

00:59:01.040 I mean, they were eating them, you know.

00:59:03.900 And I can't blame them, really.

00:59:07.480 But that's the kind of things that go on down there on the Mexican border

00:59:11.520 that people don't know about.

00:59:13.660 And them cartels would fight.

00:59:15.800 You'd hear them, gun battles.

00:59:18.240 And I asked the guy, what are they fighting over?

00:59:20.840 They're stealing them women out of the groups. 0.98

00:59:23.800 Where you're at, the borderline of one cartel and another,

00:59:30.040 and they're fighting over that borderline.

00:59:31.980 I've had one friend, I've seen them having gun battles,

00:59:37.420 like the Rat Pack, shooting at each other out of the back of trucks and stuff,

00:59:42.820 on the American side.

00:59:45.020 I come home one day, well, I'd moved from this camp,

00:59:49.220 but I was still taking care of it for a guy.

00:59:51.120 I come riding up there, check on things,

00:59:55.280 and there's a truck backed up to the wellhouse unloading bundles of pot into my wellhouse.

01:00:00.780 Wow.

01:00:02.060 What do you do?

01:00:03.580 I mean, these guys are packing guns.

01:00:05.960 They're real deal.

01:00:08.160 What did you do?

01:00:09.120 I rode up and asked them what was going on and stuff,

01:00:12.140 and they had the wrong address.

01:00:14.200 They had the wrong place.

01:00:16.100 But I got a wellhouse full of pot,

01:00:18.700 and this didn't all get figured out until later.

01:00:25.560 I'm sitting there with my gun,

01:00:27.240 they're sitting there with their gun,

01:00:28.900 and it's hard to speak Mexican when the adrenaline's running.

01:00:34.860 Yeah, yeah, I bet.

01:00:35.680 And so we were having a tough time communicating,

01:00:40.060 but they got in their truck and left,

01:00:42.360 and now here I am.

01:00:43.760 So I went to town to a guy I knew that was involved with all this stuff,

01:00:48.540 and he got it taken care of for me.

01:00:51.740 And, see, that's another thing people don't realize is how much is run down there

01:01:00.380 by the cartels and the drug company.

01:01:03.560 Right.

01:01:04.680 This would have been in the 90s, like 93, 94.

01:01:07.900 I'm at a team roping in Benson,

01:01:09.980 and this guy comes riding up to me, old rancher,

01:01:13.320 and he says, hey, will you rope with me?

01:01:15.520 And I said, sure, I'll rope with you.

01:01:17.820 I go, what's the deal?

01:01:20.000 He said, well, I just got out of prison,

01:01:21.940 and everybody's kind of hanging back from me.

01:01:25.580 I said, oh, yeah, what was that for?

01:01:27.880 He says, well, they were smuggling pot out of my place.

01:01:31.480 And he says, you can't say nothing,

01:01:33.260 or I wouldn't have a place when I come back.

01:01:36.120 I said, well, how'd that work?

01:01:38.020 What they were doing was they were putting pot down

01:01:40.760 in the bottom of the cattle trucks

01:01:44.140 and then putting plywood over the top of them

01:01:47.100 and then loading the cattle in on top of the plywood.

01:01:50.380 Wow.

01:01:51.340 And, you know, so you got to double load,

01:01:54.300 and every once in a while they have to turn somebody in.

01:01:58.220 One of the first ranches, I was dating a lady, a girl down there. 0.96

01:02:03.260 I'm Kelly Glenn, and they took me to a pasture,

01:02:09.400 and he says, now, when you're checking that south fence,

01:02:12.640 there's going to be bundles, piles of pot.

01:02:15.680 He says, just ride on by them like they aren't even there,

01:02:18.600 just another pile of rocks,

01:02:20.120 because there's somebody watching and making sure

01:02:22.280 the right people pick that pile up.

01:02:24.320 Yeah, and that was in 87.

01:02:30.460 Now it's out of control.

01:02:32.340 Now they're just coming across with whatever they want.

01:02:34.880 And this is something that the public don't understand,

01:02:39.520 and I got this from a special ops guy.

01:02:42.120 There's more fentanyl coming across the border

01:02:45.880 than the drug users can use.

01:02:48.540 I said, well, that's, you know what,

01:02:50.780 that's one of my theories,

01:02:52.540 is that they're just going to poison the water supply.

01:02:55.760 He says, yeah, five-gallon bucket of fentanyl

01:02:59.220 into 10,000 gallons of water

01:03:01.080 will kill everybody that touches that water to their lips.

01:03:05.440 I've got a reverse osmosis, thank you, Patricia, 0.99

01:03:09.360 water filter.

01:03:11.400 I've got my own wells, both properties,

01:03:14.000 all my properties have their own wells,

01:03:15.660 so I'm not having to worry about the community water.

01:03:19.600 But there's...

01:03:19.800 I don't think people understand what's here,

01:03:22.560 who's, I mean, China is in Mexico

01:03:24.980 making the drugs for the cartels to come into here.

01:03:29.780 Mm-hmm.

01:03:30.540 And, I mean, and we don't know who has that.

01:03:33.340 We have no idea.

01:03:34.640 The last two bunches of illegals I jumped on that ranch, 1.00

01:03:39.940 the last bunch were just as white as you and I are,

01:03:43.800 and I'm a half-breed.

01:03:46.140 And the other group before them,

01:03:49.820 they were dressed as Mexicans,

01:03:52.360 but they were not Mexican.

01:03:54.260 They were dark-complected, but, you know, I know.

01:03:57.800 Americans?

01:03:58.560 They're Middle Easterners.

01:03:59.700 Middle Eastern.

01:04:00.960 Mm-hmm.

01:04:01.980 Some of them had the dot and everything.

01:04:04.640 But they had the ball caps and the Mexican clothes on.

01:04:09.340 Now, why are they coming?

01:04:10.580 Why couldn't they come in legally?

01:04:12.820 What are they doing that they couldn't come in legally?

01:04:15.820 And then I've heard about, just yesterday,

01:04:19.420 where Muslims are moving in 0.60

01:04:21.640 and taking over apartment complexes.

01:04:23.800 Well, we have Chinese taking over in Maine. 1.00

01:04:31.580 They're running the drugs out of Maine now.

01:04:35.800 And all of the money's going back to communist China.

01:04:39.140 I mean, it's not good.

01:04:41.260 My manager, he says,

01:04:43.920 well, is this company okay?

01:04:46.520 I says, where's the money go?

01:04:48.820 What do you mean, where's it?

01:04:49.760 I says, like Budweiser,

01:04:51.940 the money don't stay here in America. 0.91

01:04:54.240 It goes to Holland.

01:04:55.980 You know, it's not an American company anymore.

01:04:59.420 The money goes to Holland.

01:05:01.040 That's what I mean.

01:05:03.300 I says, if a company is American-based

01:05:06.660 and the money stays here in America,

01:05:09.340 I will endorse it.

01:05:11.420 I was working on Young Riders,

01:05:15.020 the TV show,

01:05:18.160 and United Artists got bought up by the Chinese.

01:05:23.380 And we stopped at the local,

01:05:25.320 there was a little bar out there,

01:05:26.920 Mezcal by the set,

01:05:28.280 and we stopped and had a beer.

01:05:30.260 This one guy, he, one of the grips,

01:05:32.860 he's just working,

01:05:34.580 oh my God, I'm working for the,

01:05:36.800 he goes on and on and on

01:05:39.040 about how he's working

01:05:40.160 for a foreign company now, you know.

01:05:43.880 We go out to his car.

01:05:46.100 What's he get in but a Datsun?

01:05:50.560 I grabbed ahold of him.

01:05:51.620 I says, you financed this.

01:05:54.800 Everybody that drives a foreign car 0.99

01:05:56.960 is financing them foreign people 0.99

01:05:59.460 to come over here and buy stuff

01:06:01.740 from Americans.

01:06:03.080 And yeah, Americans might,

01:06:06.300 it might cost a little more.

01:06:07.480 Like I had a sunglass company

01:06:09.140 want to meet, endorse me.

01:06:11.060 I'm like, if they're made in America,

01:06:13.080 well, that got kiboshed

01:06:15.300 because it costs too much

01:06:16.520 to make them in America.

01:06:18.860 And so, yeah, but

01:06:21.520 the good, the best things,

01:06:25.420 the good things usually do cost more

01:06:27.560 or harder to get, right?

01:06:29.460 You know, it's gotten to the point

01:06:33.420 to where we're suicidal

01:06:34.620 on some of this stuff.

01:06:36.080 We don't make our own drugs here.

01:06:38.520 We don't make our own antibiotics here.

01:06:41.420 What is, what are we thinking?

01:06:44.000 We've just thought,

01:06:44.740 oh, we can be a global,

01:06:46.060 you know, economy.

01:06:47.860 And, you know, there's nothing wrong

01:06:49.240 with having trade, et cetera.

01:06:51.320 But not when you don't

01:06:53.180 have your own steel.

01:06:54.760 Not when you don't have,

01:06:56.260 you know, look at what's happening

01:06:57.760 to Boeing.

01:06:59.000 Yeah.

01:06:59.260 You put Boeing out of business.

01:07:01.240 How do we, how do we maintain,

01:07:03.680 if God forbid we had to go to war,

01:07:06.380 we can't make airplanes?

01:07:08.260 You know what I mean?

01:07:09.660 Yeah.

01:07:09.960 It's insane.

01:07:11.360 It's insane.

01:07:12.680 I think the administration

01:07:14.280 that's in now would just let us go.

01:07:17.400 I'm really scared of what's going to happen

01:07:20.380 during the election.

01:07:22.320 After the election, I should say.

01:07:25.880 There's a, you know,

01:07:29.280 I get around the country

01:07:31.620 a lot more than I used to.

01:07:33.940 And I'm meeting a lot of people

01:07:36.320 and I talk to them about voting

01:07:38.020 and they're like,

01:07:39.580 I ain't voting anymore.

01:07:40.760 I'm just buying more bullets.

01:07:42.900 You know.

01:07:43.180 You gotta vote.

01:07:44.440 Yeah, you gotta vote.

01:07:45.900 I just did a deal

01:07:47.240 at the college in Socorro

01:07:48.660 on Monday

01:07:49.900 to registering kids to vote.

01:07:53.520 And I tell them,

01:07:54.920 you sign up any way you want.

01:07:56.600 You're here gonna vote.

01:07:57.980 But eight out of 10 of them were red.

01:08:01.600 So.

01:08:02.800 It's kind of, I mean.

01:08:03.740 They're starting to wake up.

01:08:04.680 And people, you know,

01:08:06.820 especially Texas.

01:08:07.980 I mean, I lived here in the 80s

01:08:09.780 and they, you know,

01:08:11.040 Texas secede.

01:08:12.420 And about half of them are serious.

01:08:15.320 And so there's a lot of talk

01:08:17.340 all around the country about,

01:08:18.680 you know,

01:08:19.880 who's just break away

01:08:21.140 or have a civil war.

01:08:22.060 Are you out of your mind?

01:08:23.900 You don't have any idea.

01:08:26.020 You don't want that.

01:08:27.600 No.

01:08:27.900 I mean, if it comes to that,

01:08:29.560 it comes to that.

01:08:30.620 But don't root for that.

01:08:32.220 I buy more bullets.

01:08:33.460 Did you vote?

01:08:34.680 Yeah.

01:08:35.060 Because you don't want

01:08:36.240 a civil war.

01:08:37.720 A civil war.

01:08:38.500 No.

01:08:39.400 And,

01:08:39.720 and,

01:08:40.380 excuse me,

01:08:43.000 that's what China

01:08:44.780 and Russia wants. 0.58

01:08:46.820 They want us divided.

01:08:48.420 And then they're gonna come in here

01:08:49.800 and take over.

01:08:50.740 Mm-hmm.

01:08:51.220 They're already here.

01:08:53.280 And,

01:08:53.820 you know,

01:08:54.900 these initiatives

01:08:55.780 that,

01:08:57.560 they've gotten

01:08:58.800 27 of our states

01:09:00.360 taking parents'

01:09:02.100 consent away

01:09:05.380 in the schools

01:09:06.180 and this transgender stuff

01:09:08.460 and stuff.

01:09:09.120 It's not about transgender.

01:09:11.120 And,

01:09:11.600 it's about

01:09:12.660 confusing our children,

01:09:15.240 taking the patriotism

01:09:17.020 out of them.

01:09:18.520 And then,

01:09:20.440 like Marx said

01:09:21.660 and Hitler said,

01:09:22.400 we control the children,

01:09:24.640 we control the future.

01:09:26.120 Mm-hmm.

01:09:27.760 Well,

01:09:28.860 here we are.

01:09:30.860 And,

01:09:31.220 I always,

01:09:32.920 missed the point there.

01:09:35.940 Well,

01:09:36.320 the,

01:09:36.840 you know,

01:09:37.620 when you're talking about the,

01:09:39.660 doing this to the children,

01:09:40.860 you're not only confusing them,

01:09:42.740 Oh.

01:09:42.940 you are,

01:09:43.880 you're also destroying

01:09:45.200 the ability

01:09:45.860 for them to,

01:09:48.180 if,

01:09:48.780 if you give them

01:09:49.420 the hormone drugs,

01:09:51.220 they can't have children.

01:09:52.800 You've broken the family apart.

01:09:54.760 You've broken the difference 0.76

01:09:56.460 between male and female.

01:09:57.440 You've just broken us.

01:09:59.180 And the,

01:09:59.560 the two,

01:10:00.460 the only two countries

01:10:02.100 that they aren't pushing

01:10:03.580 these in schools

01:10:04.760 and everything,

01:10:06.020 of course,

01:10:06.500 they're already pretty much brainwashed,

01:10:08.380 is China and Russia.

01:10:10.060 Mm-hmm.

01:10:10.700 And yet,

01:10:11.160 they're one of the bigger financing

01:10:12.660 sources.

01:10:15.060 Yeah.

01:10:15.340 For all of this nonsense.

01:10:16.580 Yeah.

01:10:17.080 Yeah.

01:10:17.440 Exactly.

01:10:18.160 Yeah.

01:10:18.680 Yeah.

01:10:19.820 Um,

01:10:20.520 let me just go back

01:10:22.320 to Yellowstone for a second.

01:10:23.700 Are we gonna like the ending?

01:10:25.500 Do you know the ending?

01:10:27.440 That's a good question.

01:10:28.680 Yeah, yeah.

01:10:29.040 Because that's,

01:10:30.120 I just posted the other day

01:10:31.920 that,

01:10:32.380 hey,

01:10:32.520 don't ask me

01:10:33.380 because I don't know.

01:10:36.140 they,

01:10:36.700 they blacked their scripts out

01:10:38.440 except for what we needed to know.

01:10:40.840 And,

01:10:41.420 I'm not,

01:10:42.660 I'm real sure

01:10:43.420 how anything happens.

01:10:45.080 in fact,

01:10:45.680 there was

01:10:46.080 one day

01:10:47.120 they give me my dialogue

01:10:50.000 the day before.

01:10:52.520 Really?

01:10:53.100 I was,

01:10:53.520 the scene was blacked out

01:10:54.920 and,

01:10:55.400 it was

01:10:56.420 good,

01:10:58.260 one of,

01:10:59.380 Taylor Sheridan's

01:11:00.580 classic

01:11:01.060 Yeah.

01:11:01.860 lines too.

01:11:02.860 Yeah.

01:11:02.900 And I hope I

01:11:03.460 did it,

01:11:05.120 I'm pretty sure

01:11:06.080 it came out right.

01:11:07.180 Yeah.

01:11:07.400 So,

01:11:08.380 um,

01:11:11.220 you are,

01:11:12.760 you're hitting a resurgence,

01:11:16.360 um,

01:11:17.500 right?

01:11:18.860 A late bloomer?

01:11:19.740 Yeah.

01:11:19.940 Is that what you're saying?

01:11:20.660 No, no, no.

01:11:21.140 I mean,

01:11:21.400 you are,

01:11:23.160 Taylor,

01:11:24.140 um,

01:11:24.900 put something together

01:11:25.720 and everyone who's involved

01:11:27.480 with it is now bigger than,

01:11:29.440 you know,

01:11:29.820 they had been.

01:11:30.420 Maybe Costner is an example.

01:11:31.880 I don't think so.

01:11:32.620 He's probably bigger too

01:11:34.020 because of it.

01:11:35.280 Um,

01:11:35.480 um,

01:11:37.400 you didn't start out

01:11:39.360 as that person

01:11:40.960 and,

01:11:41.900 and I don't,

01:11:43.140 it's rare to meet somebody

01:11:45.240 from,

01:11:46.380 and I don't mean it this way

01:11:47.620 that you,

01:11:48.000 cause you're not from Hollywood.

01:11:49.160 I don't know many people

01:11:50.600 who are in the business

01:11:53.240 that are willing to say

01:11:55.840 the things that you do.

01:11:57.800 Yeah.

01:11:58.320 Oh,

01:11:58.500 well,

01:11:58.720 I might not be in the business

01:12:00.400 but you don't seem to care.

01:12:03.280 I mean,

01:12:03.480 when COVID happened,

01:12:05.040 I think it was the SAG awards.

01:12:06.620 You were like,

01:12:06.960 I can't go

01:12:07.740 cause I'm not getting a vaccine

01:12:09.060 and I don't want to make this political.

01:12:10.840 I don't,

01:12:11.320 you know,

01:12:11.580 but I'm not going.

01:12:13.220 Right.

01:12:14.640 That's,

01:12:15.220 I am who I am

01:12:16.780 before,

01:12:17.940 after,

01:12:18.740 and,

01:12:19.720 you know,

01:12:20.160 during,

01:12:20.740 um,

01:12:22.860 I don't,

01:12:24.380 is that age

01:12:25.000 or is that the cowboy

01:12:26.060 or what,

01:12:26.620 what is that

01:12:27.220 that gives you that?

01:12:28.660 It's probably the cowboy.

01:12:30.240 Um,

01:12:31.620 I had a pretty good life

01:12:34.980 for an old crippled rodeo cowboy.

01:12:36.980 I was doing really great

01:12:38.140 when Taylor discovered me

01:12:40.500 and,

01:12:40.960 um,

01:12:42.220 everything happens

01:12:46.460 for a reason

01:12:47.140 and for a purpose

01:12:47.960 and I've been warned

01:12:49.900 to be careful

01:12:50.520 about what I say here today.

01:12:52.620 Um,

01:12:53.460 and,

01:12:54.000 uh,

01:12:55.000 about Yellowstone

01:12:56.100 or just what you,

01:12:57.160 I'm not sure what,

01:12:58.500 I was just scared

01:13:00.200 to be clear.

01:13:02.200 I was almost like,

01:13:03.560 clarify that.

01:13:04.420 Yeah.

01:13:04.720 I was like,

01:13:05.120 well,

01:13:05.540 I think I know

01:13:06.860 what he means.

01:13:07.800 Um,

01:13:08.520 so,

01:13:10.460 it's been a beautiful ride

01:13:13.800 and it,

01:13:14.960 um,

01:13:17.260 they can't really hurt me now.

01:13:19.160 I got my own land.

01:13:20.280 Uh,

01:13:20.580 I got,

01:13:21.060 I can,

01:13:22.120 my granddad told me

01:13:23.480 that all you needed

01:13:24.700 was 10 acres to survive.

01:13:26.320 You can raise your,

01:13:27.260 enough meat

01:13:27.920 and the garden

01:13:28.620 to survive on 10 acres

01:13:30.280 and,

01:13:30.620 and I've been blessed

01:13:31.680 with a lot more than that

01:13:32.880 and,

01:13:33.400 uh,

01:13:34.480 um,

01:13:35.560 I can survive it.

01:13:37.040 I,

01:13:37.340 I feel that,

01:13:39.620 uh,

01:13:40.820 I would be letting him

01:13:42.500 and a lot of other people down

01:13:45.060 if I didn't stand up,

01:13:47.540 you know,

01:13:48.580 and I think that's one of the things

01:13:51.040 that's wrong with this country

01:13:52.460 right now

01:13:53.140 is that people don't stand up.

01:13:55.800 We just keep getting along

01:13:57.220 and that,

01:13:58.960 I,

01:13:59.280 I understand that,

01:14:01.580 um,

01:14:03.840 but there is,

01:14:04.560 that's what we do.

01:14:05.580 We get along.

01:14:06.640 We keep going

01:14:07.660 and keep trucking on,

01:14:09.480 but there's a time

01:14:11.000 and it's,

01:14:12.620 there's a line now.

01:14:13.920 Yeah.

01:14:14.140 Yes.

01:14:15.020 You,

01:14:15.300 when you start messing

01:14:16.120 with my children,

01:14:17.200 you start messing

01:14:18.220 with my animals,

01:14:19.140 all right,

01:14:22.000 you've crossed the line now

01:14:23.900 and,

01:14:25.200 uh,

01:14:26.440 I,

01:14:27.020 I just want to spread that feeling.

01:14:29.900 Hey,

01:14:30.100 we're Americans

01:14:31.060 and,

01:14:32.440 uh,

01:14:32.920 you know,

01:14:33.500 Glenn,

01:14:33.960 what,

01:14:35.080 our country was founded

01:14:36.400 by people from all different religions,

01:14:38.720 all different,

01:14:39.580 ethnicities,

01:14:41.600 ethnicities,

01:14:42.380 and,

01:14:43.520 um,

01:14:44.500 they came over here

01:14:46.100 and made this beautiful country.

01:14:48.820 We make Yellowstone.

01:14:51.600 There's people

01:14:52.820 from all levels,

01:14:54.940 all shapes of life

01:14:56.400 and I love them all.

01:14:57.440 I love you all.

01:14:58.200 Thank you.

01:14:59.520 Um,

01:15:00.340 and we come together

01:15:01.380 and we make this beautiful,

01:15:03.460 beautiful TV show.

01:15:05.880 So I have faith

01:15:07.220 that we can come together

01:15:09.220 and,

01:15:10.420 and,

01:15:10.940 and fix this country.

01:15:12.840 Like I said earlier,

01:15:14.740 it isn't the first time

01:15:16.100 we've been here.

01:15:16.700 I mean,

01:15:16.900 they were killing kids

01:15:17.920 on campuses and stuff,

01:15:19.580 you know,

01:15:20.580 um,

01:15:21.220 during,

01:15:21.620 so,

01:15:23.420 yeah,

01:15:24.760 I think that's when

01:15:25.700 Merle Haggard's,

01:15:26.580 you're walking on the fight

01:15:27.880 inside of me song

01:15:28.860 came out was about then

01:15:30.160 and,

01:15:30.540 uh,

01:15:31.520 so,

01:15:32.700 we can fix it.

01:15:34.360 Um,

01:15:34.680 the,

01:15:35.520 the election process

01:15:37.560 has me a little worried.

01:15:39.440 Um,

01:15:39.980 and,

01:15:41.420 when the Republicans

01:15:43.120 call me

01:15:44.880 and want money

01:15:45.660 and stuff,

01:15:46.260 that's what I tell them.

01:15:47.200 When you fix

01:15:47.820 the election system,

01:15:49.280 Yeah.

01:15:49.780 when we know

01:15:50.600 that our vote counts,

01:15:52.320 I mean,

01:15:53.180 it's like,

01:15:53.600 my son's one of them.

01:15:54.880 He's like,

01:15:55.180 I ain't voting anymore.

01:15:56.880 It doesn't matter.

01:15:58.240 I mean,

01:15:58.600 we go to bed,

01:15:59.500 the right side's winning,

01:16:00.880 we wake up

01:16:01.620 and the wrong side won.

01:16:02.740 I know.

01:16:03.640 Um,

01:16:04.080 this time,

01:16:05.420 I mean,

01:16:06.700 this,

01:16:07.020 this might be it.

01:16:08.240 This just might be it.

01:16:09.860 I'm hoping.

01:16:11.600 No,

01:16:11.920 but I mean,

01:16:13.340 if,

01:16:13.980 if it,

01:16:14.920 one way or another,

01:16:16.180 this might be the end

01:16:17.900 of the America

01:16:18.520 that we know

01:16:19.360 if people don't get out

01:16:21.080 and vote. 0.61

01:16:22.020 And,

01:16:22.760 you know,

01:16:23.340 I,

01:16:23.560 I've never had a problem

01:16:25.020 with elections.

01:16:27.000 Never had a problem

01:16:27.720 with elections.

01:16:28.260 I,

01:16:29.320 I can handle losing

01:16:30.480 as long as it's a fair fight.

01:16:32.760 Yeah.

01:16:33.060 And you know,

01:16:33.720 that's the way

01:16:34.320 the American people went.

01:16:36.440 Yeah.

01:16:36.680 The problem comes in

01:16:37.920 when you're like,

01:16:38.600 wait a minute,

01:16:39.220 wait a minute,

01:16:39.780 wait a minute.

01:16:40.440 Yeah.

01:16:41.040 You know,

01:16:41.560 this is all rigged.

01:16:43.380 Yeah.

01:16:43.560 That's the problem.

01:16:44.920 Yes,

01:16:45.320 sir.

01:16:45.500 And why we live

01:16:46.920 in a country

01:16:47.780 like we do

01:16:48.720 and we can't secure,

01:16:51.020 we could send

01:16:51.880 billions of dollars

01:16:53.400 all around the world

01:16:54.300 in seconds

01:16:55.520 and not a penny

01:16:56.700 is missing,

01:16:58.000 but we can't secure the vote.

01:17:00.540 That's amazing.

01:17:02.300 Yeah.

01:17:03.520 And I was at,

01:17:06.300 at Rio Dosa

01:17:08.780 for the All-American.

01:17:10.660 I led the post parade

01:17:11.720 for the All-American

01:17:12.560 and a post,

01:17:15.500 a lady come up to me 1.00

01:17:16.620 and she was like,

01:17:17.700 you know,

01:17:18.100 I'm so proud of you

01:17:19.220 and how you stand up

01:17:20.640 and what you're doing.

01:17:21.920 And she said,

01:17:22.340 I wanted you to know

01:17:23.440 I delivered 15 mail-in ballots

01:17:27.220 to a house

01:17:27.940 that I know

01:17:28.620 only a couple live in.

01:17:31.920 I said,

01:17:32.780 boom,

01:17:34.180 there you go.

01:17:35.620 And the other guy

01:17:36.400 stepped up and says,

01:17:37.440 hey,

01:17:38.640 I deliver mail too

01:17:40.140 and I have the same thing.

01:17:41.960 Only one person lived there

01:17:43.880 and I've delivered

01:17:44.900 12 mail-in ballots

01:17:46.340 to that house.

01:17:50.420 Lincoln County's good about it,

01:17:52.540 but a lot of counties

01:17:53.900 and somebody dies,

01:17:56.420 if you don't go in

01:17:57.940 and take them off the rolls,

01:18:00.220 they're still voting.

01:18:05.240 That's where we're having

01:18:06.620 our problems.

01:18:07.380 Well,

01:18:08.820 some states have done

01:18:10.080 a pretty decent job

01:18:11.460 on clearing some of that out.

01:18:14.360 Florida's trying.

01:18:15.740 Georgia's trying. 0.88

01:18:17.120 Yeah.

01:18:17.700 Yeah.

01:18:18.300 Yeah.

01:18:19.820 Look ahead.

01:18:22.820 Is America America

01:18:24.680 in five years?

01:18:26.120 Can we turn this,

01:18:27.440 and I'm not just talking

01:18:28.300 about politically,

01:18:29.240 I mean,

01:18:30.320 that sense of adventure,

01:18:32.380 adventure,

01:18:33.900 that sense of,

01:18:35.840 come on guys,

01:18:36.340 we can do this,

01:18:37.680 the sense of

01:18:38.780 e pluribus unum,

01:18:40.280 we all might come

01:18:41.060 from different places,

01:18:41.860 but we believe

01:18:42.720 in the Bill of Rights.

01:18:44.260 We believe,

01:18:45.560 I have a right,

01:18:46.300 you have a right.

01:18:47.360 Now,

01:18:47.660 let's move on.

01:18:48.640 We can argue about taxes

01:18:50.000 all day long,

01:18:51.100 but we have these things

01:18:52.360 in common.

01:18:53.520 Do we,

01:18:54.820 where are we

01:18:56.020 in five years?

01:18:56.640 I hope

01:19:01.960 that we're back.

01:19:07.180 Excuse me,

01:19:08.080 but I don't see it,

01:19:09.680 really.

01:19:11.940 They've,

01:19:14.540 the children 0.66

01:19:18.540 are so brainwashed. 0.55

01:19:23.700 You know,

01:19:24.620 I do,

01:19:24.980 I maybe take that back.

01:19:27.140 A lot of the younger people

01:19:28.840 I've been around lately

01:19:31.100 have really

01:19:33.000 kind of inspired me

01:19:35.980 that maybe there is hope.

01:19:37.840 Yeah.

01:19:38.600 We lost two generations,

01:19:41.180 but this next one

01:19:42.360 is the rebellion

01:19:44.580 of those last two.

01:19:46.920 Yeah.

01:19:47.660 Seems to be.

01:19:49.500 But rebellion

01:19:50.520 might not be

01:19:51.480 what we really need

01:19:52.640 right now.

01:19:53.060 Well,

01:19:53.240 I mean,

01:19:53.660 but they're,

01:19:54.340 they're more spiritual.

01:19:56.440 If they do it

01:19:57.180 in the right way,

01:19:58.040 I guess.

01:19:58.620 Yeah,

01:19:58.720 yeah,

01:19:58.900 yeah.

01:20:00.840 I'm more of the,

01:20:04.360 I've never been,

01:20:05.760 I'm more tactful

01:20:06.680 now than I've ever

01:20:07.460 been in my life.

01:20:09.720 I always always

01:20:10.840 strike first

01:20:12.060 and ask questions

01:20:13.180 later,

01:20:13.820 you know,

01:20:14.280 I,

01:20:14.720 I,

01:20:15.020 I fight not

01:20:16.420 before anything else.

01:20:17.880 but I,

01:20:20.500 I can see the error

01:20:21.620 of my ways

01:20:22.340 in the past

01:20:23.040 and,

01:20:23.400 and,

01:20:23.800 you know,

01:20:25.320 that's one of the things

01:20:26.500 right there

01:20:27.100 is we have to look

01:20:29.720 at our past

01:20:30.480 and see where we've

01:20:31.340 messed up.

01:20:31.860 We can't erase it.

01:20:33.080 the Democrats,

01:20:37.040 Confederates were 0.82

01:20:38.020 Democrats.

01:20:40.400 Who's taken on

01:20:41.600 all the

01:20:42.160 Confederate

01:20:43.580 statues and stuff?

01:20:46.540 And why were those

01:20:47.420 statues put up?

01:20:48.500 I don't think most

01:20:49.300 people understand.

01:20:50.680 That was to try

01:20:51.940 to heal the wounds.

01:20:53.400 Right.

01:20:53.680 saying we won,

01:20:55.300 but you had heroes too.

01:20:57.780 Yeah.

01:20:58.100 You know what I mean?

01:20:58.660 That's why those things

01:20:59.760 were built as a

01:21:01.100 reconciler,

01:21:02.080 a reach across

01:21:02.940 saying let's,

01:21:04.380 let's have

01:21:05.360 reconciling here.

01:21:06.820 We are not going to

01:21:07.480 try to erase

01:21:08.340 your heroes,

01:21:10.160 but we won

01:21:11.720 and this is who

01:21:13.520 we are now.

01:21:14.620 Yeah.

01:21:15.300 And there,

01:21:16.020 and now we're

01:21:16.520 destroying it.

01:21:17.200 We're destroying

01:21:17.700 not only that

01:21:19.040 reconciliation,

01:21:19.860 the,

01:21:20.300 the evidence

01:21:21.300 of that reconciliation,

01:21:22.420 but also we're

01:21:24.940 erasing any

01:21:26.320 reminder that

01:21:27.620 that happened.

01:21:29.060 Yeah.

01:21:29.520 You know what I mean?

01:21:30.280 Yeah.

01:21:31.020 It's horrible.

01:21:32.340 Robert E. Lee

01:21:32.940 was a great man.

01:21:34.000 Mm-hmm.

01:21:34.600 He was a good man

01:21:35.620 and a great leader

01:21:38.160 and yeah,

01:21:39.580 they,

01:21:40.600 and this is

01:21:41.260 where we're at.

01:21:42.820 I'm in New Orleans.

01:21:46.000 I can't remember

01:21:47.060 what it was for,

01:21:48.580 but

01:21:48.900 I always

01:21:50.860 didn't want to

01:21:52.300 go in restaurant

01:21:53.060 and all the

01:21:54.000 pictures and

01:21:54.720 everything.

01:21:55.240 And so I,

01:21:55.900 my handler,

01:21:57.140 we got a driver

01:21:58.020 and he's taking me

01:21:58.960 down to get a

01:22:00.040 sack of tacos.

01:22:01.720 So he goes in

01:22:02.740 and gets me a

01:22:03.320 sack of tacos

01:22:04.040 and I'm sitting

01:22:04.560 out there talking

01:22:05.200 to the driver

01:22:05.840 and he's telling

01:22:06.560 me about him

01:22:07.180 tearing these

01:22:07.760 statues and stuff

01:22:08.820 down and how

01:22:09.980 it pissed him

01:22:10.600 off.

01:22:12.500 And I'm like,

01:22:13.360 well man,

01:22:13.900 why'd you let

01:22:15.260 it happen?

01:22:16.020 You know,

01:22:16.440 I told him

01:22:18.060 about the water

01:22:18.940 fountain in Hill

01:22:19.700 Park in Hill

01:22:20.420 Montana where

01:22:21.300 I was raised.

01:22:22.120 We used to go

01:22:22.640 drink beer under

01:22:23.420 there and we'd

01:22:24.420 meet,

01:22:24.700 hey,

01:22:24.860 I'll meet you

01:22:25.260 at the fountain

01:22:25.800 at Hill Park.

01:22:26.960 We didn't know

01:22:27.880 the daughters

01:22:28.460 of the Confederacy

01:22:29.680 had donated

01:22:30.340 that water

01:22:31.700 fountain.

01:22:32.320 Well,

01:22:32.500 it's gone

01:22:33.080 now.

01:22:34.400 And he was

01:22:35.100 like,

01:22:35.340 I know,

01:22:35.880 it's just BS

01:22:36.720 and he's all

01:22:38.020 with me

01:22:39.240 until my handler

01:22:40.760 comes back

01:22:41.520 and gets in

01:22:41.920 the car

01:22:42.300 and he,

01:22:42.620 oh,

01:22:43.000 I got to be

01:22:43.680 politically

01:22:44.120 correct.

01:22:44.760 I grabbed

01:22:46.240 ahold of him

01:22:46.820 and I started

01:22:47.340 shaking.

01:22:48.140 I said,

01:22:48.400 that's why

01:22:49.000 our country

01:22:49.700 screwed up 0.93

01:22:50.580 is because

01:22:50.980 nobody will

01:22:51.620 say anything.

01:22:52.820 Everybody

01:22:53.220 thinks you

01:22:53.720 have to be

01:22:54.180 politically

01:22:54.600 correct.

01:22:55.580 I says,

01:22:56.100 why aren't

01:22:56.840 we politically

01:22:57.620 correct by

01:22:58.780 wanting to

01:22:59.560 keep that?

01:23:01.720 I says,

01:23:02.200 I feel I'm

01:23:03.120 politically

01:23:03.540 correct by

01:23:04.700 wanting to

01:23:05.180 honor a

01:23:05.660 good man.

01:23:07.300 Yeah,

01:23:07.560 maybe he's

01:23:08.100 on the wrong

01:23:08.680 side.

01:23:10.120 But he

01:23:10.700 didn't do

01:23:11.460 anything

01:23:11.880 dishonorable.

01:23:13.240 No,

01:23:13.440 Lee was.

01:23:13.940 Lee was.

01:23:15.280 A straight

01:23:15.860 up good

01:23:16.360 man.

01:23:16.900 Yeah,

01:23:17.140 he was.

01:23:17.660 I've studied

01:23:18.560 him.

01:23:19.100 Yeah.

01:23:22.920 I'm

01:23:23.440 interested

01:23:23.920 to see

01:23:25.120 where you

01:23:27.140 go next.

01:23:27.580 You're

01:23:27.720 doing a

01:23:27.980 movie now,

01:23:28.460 aren't you?

01:23:29.340 Oh,

01:23:29.920 I got a

01:23:31.680 Christmas

01:23:32.000 movie,

01:23:32.880 One Little

01:23:33.320 Angel

01:23:33.700 that I

01:23:34.180 bought,

01:23:35.600 me and

01:23:35.920 Tomas

01:23:37.840 Sanchez

01:23:38.540 bought from

01:23:39.080 Joel Kaufman,

01:23:40.020 an award

01:23:40.360 winning

01:23:40.660 writer.

01:23:41.980 And we're

01:23:43.020 fixing to

01:23:43.920 do that.

01:23:45.100 Out for

01:23:45.820 next,

01:23:46.420 not this

01:23:46.900 coming.

01:23:47.280 Hopefully we

01:23:47.720 can get it

01:23:48.300 done this

01:23:48.820 winter until

01:23:49.440 it'll be

01:23:49.760 out in

01:23:50.160 2025.

01:23:51.540 We've got

01:23:52.260 a theme

01:23:52.760 song already

01:23:53.640 written for

01:23:54.300 it.

01:23:54.560 Me and

01:23:54.800 Michaela Lane

01:23:55.660 have written

01:23:56.120 a song called

01:23:56.960 One Little

01:23:57.400 Angel.

01:23:59.000 What's the

01:23:59.300 story?

01:24:00.260 It's about

01:24:00.980 a little

01:24:01.300 girl that

01:24:03.320 loses her

01:24:04.220 mother that's

01:24:05.080 a barrel

01:24:05.480 racer and

01:24:06.900 she has

01:24:07.380 this champion

01:24:09.820 barrel horse.

01:24:10.860 Can I

01:24:11.880 just say,

01:24:12.640 this might

01:24:13.440 be very

01:24:13.800 offensive to

01:24:14.380 some,

01:24:14.720 but I

01:24:14.960 don't really

01:24:15.240 care.

01:24:17.000 There is

01:24:17.760 nothing more

01:24:18.560 beautiful than

01:24:20.060 a woman that 0.96

01:24:21.760 is barrel

01:24:22.660 racing or the

01:24:23.620 women that 1.00

01:24:24.180 come out with

01:24:24.660 the flags on

01:24:25.420 the horses.

01:24:26.280 My gosh,

01:24:27.300 that's beautiful.

01:24:28.040 Isn't it?

01:24:28.440 Just beautiful.

01:24:29.900 Yeah,

01:24:30.180 it is.

01:24:31.040 And she

01:24:33.080 has a

01:24:34.020 colt out of

01:24:34.700 this award

01:24:35.320 winning horse

01:24:36.020 that her

01:24:36.440 mother had

01:24:37.200 before she

01:24:39.080 died.

01:24:39.500 She died

01:24:39.920 of cancer

01:24:40.460 and it

01:24:41.580 devastates

01:24:42.420 her dad

01:24:43.080 and they

01:24:43.420 end up

01:24:43.740 losing the

01:24:44.260 farm and

01:24:44.680 everything.

01:24:46.140 One little

01:24:46.960 angel.

01:24:47.560 She needs

01:24:47.980 all I want

01:24:48.720 to just

01:24:49.200 need one

01:24:49.760 little angel.

01:24:51.520 And by

01:24:53.200 the end of

01:24:53.600 the movie,

01:24:54.060 she figures

01:24:54.860 it out that

01:24:56.040 there are

01:24:56.640 angels all

01:24:57.620 around us

01:24:58.220 all the time.

01:25:00.040 And I

01:25:01.520 have people

01:25:02.320 tell me they

01:25:02.880 don't believe

01:25:03.360 in God.

01:25:03.860 it flabbergasts

01:25:08.120 me,

01:25:08.600 especially

01:25:09.580 when you're

01:25:10.520 illegitimate

01:25:11.800 half-breed

01:25:13.900 come up

01:25:14.940 like I

01:25:15.380 did.

01:25:15.740 I mean,

01:25:16.360 I'm not

01:25:18.580 eight out

01:25:19.300 of ten

01:25:19.780 kids

01:25:20.700 statistically

01:25:22.000 are either

01:25:23.040 locked up

01:25:23.700 or dead

01:25:24.220 that come

01:25:25.300 up like

01:25:26.240 I did.

01:25:27.520 And if

01:25:29.380 that ain't

01:25:29.780 somebody

01:25:30.200 working for

01:25:30.860 me,

01:25:31.320 and I

01:25:33.360 feel like

01:25:33.920 I have

01:25:34.260 my grandpa

01:25:34.840 and grandma

01:25:35.340 with me

01:25:35.800 a lot.

01:25:37.780 You've

01:25:38.060 talked about

01:25:38.520 them a

01:25:38.860 lot.

01:25:39.380 Yeah.

01:25:41.620 Well,

01:25:42.940 my grandmother

01:25:45.460 changed my

01:25:46.320 life.

01:25:47.240 I was,

01:25:48.820 I think,

01:25:49.260 as a second

01:25:49.840 grade.

01:25:51.660 And I

01:25:54.180 got in a

01:25:55.060 fight at

01:25:55.460 school.

01:25:55.900 Somebody's

01:25:56.400 calling me

01:25:57.320 gut eater

01:25:59.180 or something.

01:26:00.060 And I

01:26:01.280 came home

01:26:01.940 and she

01:26:03.940 says,

01:26:04.380 you know,

01:26:06.080 when you

01:26:06.380 quit letting

01:26:08.460 them bother

01:26:09.060 you with

01:26:09.500 that kind

01:26:09.980 of stuff,

01:26:10.620 they'll

01:26:10.840 quit doing

01:26:11.360 it.

01:26:12.520 You know,

01:26:12.840 don't let

01:26:13.280 it bother

01:26:13.720 you.

01:26:14.140 And it's

01:26:14.680 no fun

01:26:15.180 for anybody.

01:26:16.820 And I

01:26:17.140 said,

01:26:17.340 yeah,

01:26:17.580 you're right.

01:26:18.540 And she

01:26:19.140 says,

01:26:19.620 and you

01:26:20.180 know,

01:26:20.920 your

01:26:21.160 granddad can

01:26:21.980 fight.

01:26:22.780 And I've

01:26:23.280 seen you

01:26:23.680 fighting with

01:26:24.200 your cousins.

01:26:24.800 You can

01:26:25.160 fight.

01:26:26.060 But I

01:26:26.600 don't ever

01:26:27.040 want you

01:26:27.460 fighting unless

01:26:28.180 you're in

01:26:28.560 the right.

01:26:29.980 And if

01:26:30.500 you always

01:26:30.960 are in

01:26:33.400 the right

01:26:33.820 when you

01:26:34.240 do fight,

01:26:35.020 you'll win.

01:26:36.280 No matter

01:26:36.720 the odds.

01:26:37.720 Because the

01:26:38.180 other guy

01:26:38.620 will know

01:26:38.960 he's wrong.

01:26:41.620 And she

01:26:41.940 says,

01:26:42.420 why are you

01:26:43.980 telling me?

01:26:44.560 She says,

01:26:46.380 you've got a

01:26:47.280 good heart

01:26:47.800 for you.

01:26:49.380 And you'll

01:26:50.080 always have

01:26:50.620 that good

01:26:51.060 heart.

01:26:52.100 I says,

01:26:52.420 how do you

01:26:52.780 know that,

01:26:53.320 grandma?

01:26:54.400 She goes,

01:26:54.860 because puppy

01:26:55.420 dogs and

01:26:56.360 babies love

01:26:57.140 you.

01:26:57.280 you have

01:26:58.340 a good

01:26:58.660 heart.

01:26:59.620 And there's

01:27:00.160 times when

01:27:00.820 I was in

01:27:01.680 juvenile

01:27:02.460 delinquent

01:27:03.020 days and

01:27:03.920 stuff that

01:27:04.680 might have

01:27:05.800 saved me

01:27:06.300 from going

01:27:06.860 to the

01:27:07.200 dark side.

01:27:08.520 I remember

01:27:09.180 my grandma

01:27:09.820 told me I

01:27:10.560 had a good

01:27:11.060 heart.

01:27:12.680 And so

01:27:13.520 I've,

01:27:14.140 like my

01:27:14.660 son,

01:27:15.220 you've got

01:27:16.100 a good

01:27:16.400 heart.

01:27:17.020 You can

01:27:17.660 screw up

01:27:18.300 and be 0.97

01:27:18.740 what a 1.00

01:27:19.420 jerk you 1.00

01:27:20.000 want to 0.94

01:27:20.380 be,

01:27:20.980 but I

01:27:21.340 know you

01:27:21.700 have a

01:27:22.020 good

01:27:22.200 heart.

01:27:22.660 And he

01:27:22.960 does.

01:27:24.140 He's

01:27:24.420 probably

01:27:24.960 maybe better

01:27:25.620 than mine.

01:27:26.200 But yeah,

01:27:28.000 that one

01:27:29.280 line might

01:27:30.280 have saved

01:27:30.760 me from

01:27:31.360 a lot of

01:27:32.240 different,

01:27:33.740 like I

01:27:34.320 said,

01:27:34.540 going to

01:27:34.900 the dark

01:27:35.380 side and

01:27:35.960 being locked

01:27:37.060 up or

01:27:37.720 dead by

01:27:38.760 now. 1.00

01:27:40.820 You're

01:27:41.300 fascinating.
