Summary

On this episode of the podcast, we sit down with the mayor of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, to talk about her campaign for governor, her love of Michigan, and her love for her home state. We also hear from one of her favorite Michigan boosters, Kid Rock, who joins us to discuss his love for the state, and why he thinks the current governor is the best thing that has ever happened to the state in a long time. We also get to hear from some of Kid Rock's good friend and former business partner, Pete Buttigieg, who also happens to be a former mayor of the Grand Rapids area, and a supporter of the state's current governor, Dana Nessel, who has been running for re-election for the past two years and a half years, and who has a lot to say about what's going on in the state of Michigan. It's a good one, and it's a really good one. We hope you enjoy it, and if you do, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and share it with a friend who needs a good friend who can relate to what we're talking about.

Transcript

00:00:00.000 Thank you for having me.
00:00:14.660 I'm really glad to be here, I have to say.
00:00:18.520 Thank you.
00:00:21.360 This is our 10th city.
00:00:25.600 And we're going coast to coast in the month of September
00:00:31.500 on the theory that it's a beautiful country
00:00:34.920 and if you live here and plan to die here,
00:00:38.020 you should see it.
00:00:40.000 And also on the theory that, you know,
00:00:42.000 everything's censored but you can't censor a live event.
00:00:44.600 So that has really...
00:00:47.600 But of all the places we've been,
00:00:49.620 and this is totally sincere,
00:00:51.340 I am especially grateful to be in Grand Rapids.
00:00:53.360 I have been coming to Grand Rapids
00:00:58.080 since I was a teenager.
00:01:00.900 I grew up...
00:01:02.100 I didn't hear what you said,
00:01:02.900 but I think I agree with you.
00:01:05.640 And I grew up in a totally different part of the country,
00:01:08.440 a beautiful part of the country,
00:01:09.580 but a much less wholesome part of the country.
00:01:13.580 And I wound up dating a girl when I was 15,
00:01:16.720 right after I turned 15,
00:01:17.920 whose family was from Grand Rapids.
00:01:19.480 And so I've been coming here consistently for 40 years,
00:01:25.300 initially trying to, you know, woo her,
00:01:28.860 make the sale.
00:01:32.600 It's a little harder than it was with girls where I grew up,
00:01:35.680 but worth it.
00:01:37.740 And I continue to think this is just one of the greatest places ever
00:01:40.920 and that the women...
00:01:42.600 And I'll just be totally blunt with you,
00:01:43.980 since no one's listening,
00:01:44.860 that the women Michigan produces really are at a higher level.
00:01:50.680 I mean that.
00:01:51.880 I mean that.
00:01:53.380 Just the nicest.
00:01:55.580 And the cutest, if I can say.
00:01:57.960 But just the nicest.
00:01:59.940 You know,
00:02:00.420 and if you're a married man in the state of Michigan,
00:02:02.700 the chances that you've been barked at this morning,
00:02:05.040 very, very low.
00:02:06.120 Very low.
00:02:07.640 The chances that someone's just been really nice to you
00:02:10.720 are incredibly high.
00:02:14.880 And so it's like wild that your state is run by like the worst women
00:02:18.360 I've ever seen.
00:02:21.460 And it's weird.
00:02:25.580 It's so weird.
00:02:26.840 I remember telling my son when he was like eight,
00:02:30.740 I was like,
00:02:31.140 you have got to marry a girl from Michigan.
00:02:33.620 You just have to.
00:02:34.700 It just works.
00:02:35.880 It's incredible.
00:02:37.360 Hunting season.
00:02:38.240 I'm going to be hunting for all.
00:02:39.100 Of course you are.
00:02:41.000 There's understanding,
00:02:42.820 kind,
00:02:43.680 warm.
00:02:45.240 Ah,
00:02:45.600 the best.
00:02:46.440 And so then I wake up one morning and I'm like,
00:02:48.380 who is running that state?
00:02:50.940 And it really is kind of a metaphor for everything,
00:02:53.780 really for the entire country.
00:02:55.600 You know,
00:02:56.300 if you read about Michigan,
00:02:57.720 I mean,
00:02:57.800 I come here a lot because of all my wife's family here
00:03:00.680 and all our friends here.
00:03:01.760 And one of my favorite people in Michigan is going to be joining us
00:03:04.480 in just a minute.
00:03:05.620 One of the,
00:03:05.940 one of the great boosters of Michigan.
00:03:10.500 Trust me.
00:03:10.900 I've been,
00:03:11.280 I've been to a lot of places with Kid Rock and wherever he is,
00:03:16.160 he is representing the state of Michigan at full volume.
00:03:18.960 Really,
00:03:19.280 they ought to give him a,
00:03:19.960 the tourist bureau ought to give him a commission because he is the most loyal
00:03:25.300 son the state has ever produced.
00:03:26.620 But anyway,
00:03:27.880 if you read about the state,
00:03:29.620 you're like,
00:03:30.000 wow,
00:03:30.180 that place is really screwed up.
00:03:33.060 And then you come here and you don't meet a single person who is capable of screwing up anything.
00:03:39.540 You don't meet a single,
00:03:40.420 every single person you meet in the state of Michigan is kind and straightforward and nice and loves his family and musky fishing and like all the good things.
00:03:49.300 He just loves walleye.
00:03:50.220 You know,
00:03:50.560 it's like,
00:03:52.340 who are,
00:03:52.960 who are all these people who are allowing someone like Gretchen Whitmer or Dana Nessel?
00:04:02.960 Like who actually voted for Dana Nessel?
00:04:06.840 I always wonder that.
00:04:08.880 Nobody,
00:04:09.200 nobody.
00:04:10.040 There's like nobody.
00:04:11.700 It was like Bill de Blasio in New York,
00:04:13.780 the city of 8 million people.
00:04:15.000 You couldn't find a single one who admitted voting for the guy.
00:04:19.020 And he got,
00:04:19.620 you may not even know who that is,
00:04:20.660 but he was a spectacularly stupid mayor that they had.
00:04:24.860 This is really just unbelievable.
00:04:28.640 People like Whitmer,
00:04:29.800 like Whitmer,
00:04:30.380 but without the facelift,
00:04:31.580 but like Whitmer is totally right.
00:04:32.960 I'll never forget during COVID because I'm,
00:04:37.380 I've been,
00:04:37.740 you know,
00:04:37.920 a booster of your state and I can do like,
00:04:40.100 I can point on my hand where things are.
00:04:42.220 And I know what the UP is.
00:04:44.440 And like,
00:04:44.820 I am kind of a,
00:04:45.940 an adopted son of the state.
00:04:49.560 I've shot a bunch of your birds.
00:04:51.340 I've caught a ton of your fish.
00:04:52.840 I married one of your girls.
00:04:54.180 Like I am basically from Michigan.
00:04:56.660 And
00:04:57.060 I remember
00:05:00.760 someone saying to me,
00:05:02.860 once like the governor of Michigan,
00:05:05.740 Gretchen something,
00:05:06.880 who I think is actually from Grand Rapids area.
00:05:09.720 Amazingly
00:05:10.240 banned the sale of paint in paint stores.
00:05:13.920 I'll never forget this during COVID.
00:05:16.380 And I was like,
00:05:16.880 that's obviously an urban myth.
00:05:19.060 That's a legend.
00:05:20.060 That's like,
00:05:20.380 they're eating the pets in Springfield,
00:05:22.140 Ohio.
00:05:22.440 That's not really true.
00:05:25.740 That can't be true.
00:05:26.680 They're not really eating the pets.
00:05:29.820 Actually,
00:05:30.320 they are.
00:05:32.240 She can't really have banned the sale of paint.
00:05:36.420 Is paint a well-known vector for Chinese viruses?
00:05:39.920 What?
00:05:40.340 That's crazy.
00:05:41.340 I know Michigan.
00:05:43.700 And what?
00:05:45.100 And seeds.
00:05:47.540 Yeah,
00:05:47.780 no planting flowers during a global pandemic.
00:05:50.260 You knew that.
00:05:51.940 That's just like basic epidemiology.
00:05:55.760 So I remember saying,
00:05:57.000 clearly something has been lost in the translation.
00:05:58.860 That's not really real.
00:06:00.080 She didn't really do that.
00:06:02.320 Because I want to give everyone the benefit of the doubt,
00:06:04.660 obviously.
00:06:05.300 No one's that stupid.
00:06:07.160 And then you wouldn't like,
00:06:08.320 keep everyone in the state indoors,
00:06:10.160 but let your husband go off to your cottage
00:06:13.060 and go fishing at a boat rental
00:06:15.680 that was closed to everybody else.
00:06:17.080 Like,
00:06:17.260 you wouldn't do that,
00:06:18.080 would you?
00:06:19.420 Because that would really just be like,
00:06:21.300 giving the finger to the entire state,
00:06:23.220 the people who vote for you.
00:06:25.700 And then you look it up,
00:06:26.980 and you're like,
00:06:27.280 actually,
00:06:28.080 like the pet eating,
00:06:29.580 totally true.
00:06:31.780 And so then the question arises,
00:06:33.660 well,
00:06:33.800 how did this happen?
00:06:34.740 So we learned two things,
00:06:35.800 okay?
00:06:36.620 The first thing is,
00:06:37.820 the leaders of a place,
00:06:39.520 whether it's a state,
00:06:40.500 or a town,
00:06:41.200 or a country,
00:06:42.420 do not necessarily reflect the people they lead,
00:06:44.760 or who live there,
00:06:46.000 at all.
00:06:47.480 In other words,
00:06:48.260 you can have a place that's amazing,
00:06:51.740 that's great,
00:06:52.500 on every level.
00:06:53.560 It's incredibly beautiful,
00:06:54.640 as this state genuinely is.
00:06:56.700 You could have like,
00:06:57.680 the best people in the entire country,
00:06:59.280 and they can be led by like,
00:07:00.620 a brain-dead robot,
00:07:01.960 who bans paint sales,
00:07:03.120 in the name of COVID protection.
00:07:05.080 Like,
00:07:05.300 that happens.
00:07:06.400 You can't judge a place,
00:07:08.300 by its leaders.
00:07:10.160 Which itself,
00:07:11.200 is a kind of challenge,
00:07:12.180 to the idea of,
00:07:13.620 a constitutional republic,
00:07:14.700 or a democracy.
00:07:15.900 Because of course,
00:07:16.600 the core idea is,
00:07:18.660 the people rule.
00:07:19.680 It's their country,
00:07:20.660 it's their city,
00:07:21.560 it's their state,
00:07:22.420 it's their neighborhood,
00:07:22.980 it's their nation.
00:07:23.620 And the people who run it,
00:07:27.000 aren't kings or queens,
00:07:28.700 or archdukes.
00:07:30.340 They're not,
00:07:30.840 it's not even a military junta.
00:07:33.060 It's just a bunch of ordinary people,
00:07:34.560 who are serving at the pleasure,
00:07:35.820 of the population.
00:07:36.740 They're the employees.
00:07:38.740 It's like,
00:07:39.540 you're a housekeeper,
00:07:40.320 but maybe less talented.
00:07:42.040 But still,
00:07:42.600 you're an employee.
00:07:44.560 And if you catch them stealing,
00:07:46.380 or being creepy,
00:07:48.160 you can just can them.
00:07:49.140 Sorry,
00:07:49.360 you work for me.
00:07:50.060 Out of here,
00:07:50.540 honey.
00:07:51.700 You know what I mean?
00:07:53.160 Learn to paint houses.
00:07:57.620 So,
00:07:58.380 how could it be,
00:08:01.060 that leaders don't reflect,
00:08:02.540 the essential character of a place?
00:08:04.140 That's anti-democratic.
00:08:06.440 I mean,
00:08:06.680 in other words,
00:08:07.260 when you come to Michigan,
00:08:08.800 if the democracy is functioning as intended,
00:08:11.000 you would expect to find,
00:08:12.300 millions upon millions,
00:08:13.600 of little Gretchen Whitmers.
00:08:16.040 Dumb people with facelifts,
00:08:17.480 saying nonsensical things.
00:08:18.620 But that's the opposite of what you find.
00:08:23.160 So,
00:08:23.500 what does that tell you?
00:08:24.080 It tells you the system is not working as intended.
00:08:29.140 Okay?
00:08:29.660 So,
00:08:29.820 that's the first thing you learn.
00:08:31.700 And the second thing you learn,
00:08:33.500 is that there's a reason for that.
00:08:36.040 And that's that people who are not with the program,
00:08:38.800 may be mad,
00:08:39.620 but they're not actually voting.
00:08:41.540 They're not actually voting.
00:08:43.420 Now,
00:08:43.840 why is that?
00:08:44.780 Well,
00:08:45.080 I think I know.
00:08:45.840 And I'm not here to scold anybody.
00:08:48.240 I mean,
00:08:48.620 trust me,
00:08:49.280 there have been many times where I'm like,
00:08:50.580 I know the people running for office
00:08:52.220 a little bit too well to vote for them.
00:08:55.220 You know,
00:08:55.560 or you just feel like,
00:08:56.940 ah,
00:08:57.140 what does it matter?
00:08:57.840 The system's fake.
00:08:58.860 Obviously,
00:08:59.980 you know,
00:09:00.300 in 2020,
00:09:01.000 you never saw a single Joe Biden.
00:09:02.640 Joe Biden didn't even exist,
00:09:03.660 actually.
00:09:04.260 You know,
00:09:04.580 he's like a hologram at this point.
00:09:07.280 But in 2020,
00:09:08.400 you're like,
00:09:08.680 I never met a single person who's voting for,
00:09:10.660 quote,
00:09:11.000 Joe Biden.
00:09:11.680 And he got like over a billion votes.
00:09:15.660 He got more votes,
00:09:16.900 or maybe more than that.
00:09:17.820 I think he got more votes than the population of the earth.
00:09:22.300 And you're like,
00:09:23.040 you look at that,
00:09:25.100 and every,
00:09:25.920 oh,
00:09:26.280 don't say fake.
00:09:26.840 That's not allowed.
00:09:27.640 By the way,
00:09:27.900 that's not on Wikipedia.
00:09:28.880 Wikipedia says it was totally on the level.
00:09:30.620 Therefore,
00:09:30.920 it must be.
00:09:32.600 To this day,
00:09:33.860 if you go on a Google product,
00:09:36.420 YouTube,
00:09:37.740 you're not allowed to question the last election,
00:09:40.000 which is usually a sign.
00:09:42.500 Whenever someone tells you you're not allowed to have an opinion,
00:09:45.600 it's pretty near proof that that opinion is true.
00:09:50.100 They're not banning lies in this country,
00:09:52.340 trust me.
00:09:53.500 There's no penalty for lying.
00:09:56.940 When was the last time someone got busted for lying?
00:09:58.800 Do you remember?
00:10:00.960 That's no longer a crime.
00:10:02.260 They lie to you from the podium every single day.
00:10:05.400 The Biden administration's illiterate spokesperson,
00:10:07.720 you can't understand what she's saying,
00:10:08.720 but you can be certain because her lips are moving
00:10:11.160 that all of it is untrue,
00:10:12.120 but she will never be held to account.
00:10:14.460 Tony Fauci still has a Secret Service detail.
00:10:17.800 Do you have?
00:10:19.660 Yeah,
00:10:20.240 boo,
00:10:20.640 yeah.
00:10:21.900 The only people protecting him should be prison guards.
00:10:24.420 I mean,
00:10:24.700 honestly.
00:10:26.700 Yeah,
00:10:27.200 boo.
00:10:27.720 Boo is right.
00:10:31.780 So,
00:10:32.320 obviously,
00:10:32.900 there's no penalty for lying,
00:10:34.180 so if they're telling you you can't say something,
00:10:36.240 take it to the bank,
00:10:37.960 bet your house what you're saying is true,
00:10:40.380 and that's why they hate it,
00:10:42.080 because it's a threat to their lies,
00:10:44.480 right?
00:10:46.260 So,
00:10:46.760 I mean,
00:10:46.900 this is all very obvious.
00:10:47.900 You don't need to be a political scientist,
00:10:49.300 or a college graduate,
00:10:50.440 you know,
00:10:50.640 which I'm not,
00:10:51.300 to understand the basic dynamics in life,
00:10:54.580 which is honest people are not afraid of different opinions.
00:10:57.780 They're not afraid of your opinion.
00:10:59.860 The only people who are afraid of talking
00:11:01.980 are people with something to hide,
00:11:04.200 and what they're afraid of
00:11:05.700 is that you might expose them.
00:11:08.040 That's,
00:11:08.340 of course,
00:11:08.540 exactly why they hate Trump.
00:11:10.740 It has nothing to do with his program.
00:11:12.960 Trump's,
00:11:13.200 like,
00:11:13.240 the least radical person in the world.
00:11:14.860 Trump's,
00:11:15.120 like,
00:11:15.300 completely moderate,
00:11:16.420 actually,
00:11:17.380 but that's not what they care about.
00:11:19.740 What they care about
00:11:20.820 is Trump's irrepressible tendency
00:11:22.940 to say things that are not on the script.
00:11:26.340 They don't trust Trump not to tell the truth.
00:11:29.840 You know,
00:11:30.120 you can write a 10,000-word speech for Trump,
00:11:32.140 but you can't be certain
00:11:32.920 than right in the middle of it,
00:11:33.720 you won't be like,
00:11:34.140 and another thing,
00:11:35.060 and then tell the truth about you.
00:11:39.040 So if you're trying to hide something
00:11:40.720 really,
00:11:41.260 really obvious,
00:11:42.200 like,
00:11:42.640 I don't know,
00:11:43.060 you murdered Jeffrey Epstein,
00:11:44.220 or something,
00:11:45.160 as if nobody knows,
00:11:49.840 really?
00:11:50.960 Epstein didn't kill himself?
00:11:52.020 Are you serious?
00:11:53.320 Right.
00:11:54.280 Everybody already knows that,
00:11:56.120 but the people who did it
00:11:57.220 are really worried
00:11:58.280 and did a million other things,
00:12:00.060 oh,
00:12:00.160 it wasn't safe and effective?
00:12:01.260 Seriously?
00:12:03.920 They're worried that Trump
00:12:05.280 will just go off script
00:12:06.300 and tell the truth.
00:12:07.100 They are not worried.
00:12:07.900 They're always like,
00:12:08.200 oh,
00:12:08.280 Trump's such a liar.
00:12:09.320 He's such a liar.
00:12:11.200 He bragged about his crowd size
00:12:12.820 or his hands.
00:12:13.560 It's like,
00:12:13.920 no,
00:12:14.180 no,
00:12:14.240 no,
00:12:14.340 no.
00:12:14.680 That's not why you hate Trump.
00:12:17.660 If he was a liar,
00:12:19.160 you'd love him.
00:12:19.880 You'd vote for him.
00:12:21.820 No.
00:12:22.180 You're worried that he will
00:12:24.240 accidentally tell the truth
00:12:25.520 about you.
00:12:28.740 And so,
00:12:29.800 sorry,
00:12:31.500 speaking of getting far afield,
00:12:35.560 and so,
00:12:36.720 you know,
00:12:37.020 you're not allowed to question
00:12:37.860 the 2020 election,
00:12:38.900 but I think,
00:12:39.520 just like you're not allowed
00:12:39.940 to question the COVID vax,
00:12:41.120 what else are you not allowed
00:12:41.660 to question?
00:12:43.460 I can't hear you.
00:12:44.680 I didn't have,
00:12:45.420 I'm not endorsing that.
00:12:47.220 Just like you can't question,
00:12:50.480 you know,
00:12:50.780 human-caused climate change
00:12:51.900 or whatever you can't question.
00:12:54.080 You can't question for a reason.
00:12:57.640 Boy,
00:12:57.920 this is a,
00:12:58.480 this is a
00:12:59.260 sporty crowd.
00:13:01.520 Go Grand Rapids.
00:13:04.860 I love it.
00:13:08.600 But people don't vote
00:13:10.700 because they look at all of this.
00:13:12.320 They're like,
00:13:12.660 you know,
00:13:12.860 what's the point?
00:13:13.420 The system is fake.
00:13:14.980 They do think that.
00:13:15.780 I find myself feeling that way
00:13:17.660 at times.
00:13:19.020 Well,
00:13:19.180 of course it's fake,
00:13:20.340 but it doesn't mean
00:13:21.020 your vote doesn't matter.
00:13:22.660 It doesn't mean
00:13:23.280 you couldn't overwhelm them
00:13:24.700 to such a degree
00:13:25.580 they couldn't steal it.
00:13:27.660 You could,
00:13:28.940 actually.
00:13:30.660 And especially now,
00:13:33.420 because something wild
00:13:34.500 is happening
00:13:35.080 that nobody is talking about,
00:13:36.760 and I almost never talk
00:13:37.460 about politics
00:13:38.100 because it,
00:13:39.020 well,
00:13:39.200 I don't know that much about it
00:13:40.060 to be completely honest.
00:13:42.060 Having spent my life around it,
00:13:43.340 I understand it less
00:13:44.000 than I ever have.
00:13:45.780 I couldn't tell you
00:13:46.720 how many electoral votes
00:13:47.760 your state has,
00:13:48.900 you know,
00:13:49.240 just being honest.
00:13:50.760 20?
00:13:52.440 16.
00:13:53.060 Okay.
00:13:53.640 That sounds about right.
00:13:54.380 16, okay.
00:13:56.420 So there are political experts here.
00:13:58.660 But here's what I notice.
00:14:00.100 If you get it,
00:14:00.660 one of the reasons
00:14:01.040 I don't get too into the weeds
00:14:02.420 or the facts
00:14:03.280 of electoral politics
00:14:04.560 is sometimes it obscures
00:14:05.740 the bigger picture.
00:14:07.200 And the bigger picture,
00:14:08.100 as far as I'm concerned,
00:14:09.180 just as an observer of it,
00:14:10.640 and as someone
00:14:11.240 who's traveled across the country
00:14:12.320 in the last few weeks,
00:14:12.960 is that there is some
00:14:14.520 kind of weird
00:14:15.400 and huge realignment
00:14:16.500 going on.
00:14:17.860 Massive realignment
00:14:18.800 going on.
00:14:20.500 And it's not your imagination
00:14:22.680 at all.
00:14:24.340 Well, I mean,
00:14:24.680 Kid Rock's coming up
00:14:25.540 on stage.
00:14:26.160 I mean,
00:14:26.300 the guy,
00:14:27.980 entertainers didn't use
00:14:29.280 to do stuff like this
00:14:30.900 before crowds like this.
00:14:33.780 Two nights ago,
00:14:34.860 we had Bobby Kennedy on.
00:14:39.080 And I've always liked
00:14:42.980 Bobby Kennedy
00:14:43.640 because he's a sportsman.
00:14:45.260 You know,
00:14:45.600 he's an outdoorsman.
00:14:47.080 He's a hunter and a fisherman.
00:14:48.280 You know,
00:14:48.540 and I like people like that.
00:14:49.800 And that's more important
00:14:51.100 to me.
00:14:52.640 But Bobby Kennedy
00:14:53.540 was always like
00:14:54.240 a liberal partisan Democrat.
00:14:55.700 Actually,
00:14:55.940 his name is Bobby Kennedy.
00:14:58.880 Bobby Kennedy.
00:15:01.520 And so,
00:15:02.340 you know,
00:15:02.580 I never thought
00:15:03.780 I'd wind up in a place
00:15:05.000 where he had vigorously
00:15:06.760 in a heartfelt way
00:15:07.860 endorsed Donald Trump,
00:15:09.700 was promising to work
00:15:11.260 as a part
00:15:13.060 of the Trump administration,
00:15:14.340 help with the transition,
00:15:15.360 become a cabinet secretary,
00:15:16.600 all of which I hope happens,
00:15:17.880 and then be greeted
00:15:19.180 by a crowd of people
00:15:20.480 who are probably
00:15:20.940 going to vote for Trump
00:15:21.580 as a hero.
00:15:23.700 What?
00:15:26.940 And what does that tell you?
00:15:28.500 It's not just about
00:15:29.320 Bobby Kennedy,
00:15:29.880 who I think is
00:15:30.580 an extraordinary
00:15:31.660 and an incredibly brave person.
00:15:33.800 It tells you
00:15:34.660 that the categories
00:15:35.500 that we've grown up with
00:15:36.600 and that have been used
00:15:38.000 to describe what's happening
00:15:38.980 in our country
00:15:39.460 are lies.
00:15:40.840 And they're designed
00:15:41.960 to mislead us
00:15:43.840 about the truth.
00:15:45.520 And what they're designed
00:15:46.560 to convey
00:15:47.440 is the idea
00:15:48.060 that the country
00:15:48.600 is much more divided
00:15:49.560 than it actually is.
00:15:51.440 That's what I notice.
00:15:53.200 If I experience
00:15:54.860 what's happening
00:15:55.600 in America
00:15:56.080 on my phone,
00:15:56.820 which unfortunately I do,
00:15:58.080 I live at the other end
00:15:58.840 of the country
00:15:59.240 in a really rural area,
00:16:00.200 and I don't know
00:16:00.900 what's going on in America,
00:16:01.780 so I like look
00:16:02.260 at my stupid phone
00:16:02.980 and I see
00:16:04.160 an unending litany
00:16:06.000 of sad stories
00:16:07.080 about how much
00:16:07.580 Americans hate each other.
00:16:09.260 You know,
00:16:09.680 on the basis of politics,
00:16:10.780 especially on the basis
00:16:11.720 of race,
00:16:12.360 but gender,
00:16:13.020 two men and women
00:16:13.440 hate each other,
00:16:14.040 black people,
00:16:14.460 white people hate each other,
00:16:15.780 Democrats,
00:16:16.120 Republicans hate each other,
00:16:16.840 it's all a bunch of hate.
00:16:18.240 And then you get actually
00:16:18.960 out into the country
00:16:19.920 and I don't know
00:16:20.640 where that's taking place,
00:16:21.540 but know where I've been,
00:16:22.420 this is my 10th city.
00:16:23.740 No one has ever
00:16:24.600 come up to me,
00:16:25.480 not one time,
00:16:27.260 and been like,
00:16:27.780 I hate you for your skin color,
00:16:29.340 or you hate me
00:16:29.920 for your skin color,
00:16:30.680 I hate you for your,
00:16:31.180 no one ever says
00:16:31.780 anything like that.
00:16:33.560 Everybody's really nice.
00:16:34.480 I don't know
00:16:34.720 where all the hateful people are.
00:16:35.840 I mean,
00:16:35.960 I do know they exist.
00:16:37.360 I guess they're all
00:16:38.000 in the Biden administration.
00:16:38.900 But they don't seem
00:16:41.840 to be wandering around
00:16:42.820 the strip malls of America
00:16:44.080 or the coffee shops
00:16:44.960 or the hotel lobbies
00:16:45.880 or all the places I've been.
00:16:47.600 I never meet them
00:16:48.260 at the airport.
00:16:50.480 Occasionally,
00:16:50.840 if I go skiing
00:16:51.480 in Jackson, Wyoming,
00:16:52.440 and there are a lot of
00:16:53.360 rich ladies waiting
00:16:54.800 in the lift line.
00:16:56.940 If you're at the main G Moose,
00:16:58.200 no, that main G Moose is fine,
00:16:59.320 but if you go into
00:16:59.760 the Four Seasons
00:17:00.400 for the Elk Chili,
00:17:01.200 there's always some,
00:17:02.000 like, angry woman
00:17:02.860 with a facelift,
00:17:03.640 like, mad at you.
00:17:04.420 Ah!
00:17:05.600 Racist!
00:17:06.840 All right.
00:17:07.200 So there's, like,
00:17:09.540 one hundredth
00:17:10.420 of the population
00:17:11.340 who are super,
00:17:13.000 super unhappy
00:17:13.580 possibly having an affair
00:17:15.000 with the yoga instructor
00:17:15.800 who are married
00:17:17.920 to finance guys
00:17:18.960 who are really,
00:17:19.640 really angry.
00:17:20.500 Not possibly,
00:17:21.280 certainly.
00:17:23.120 And they're really angry,
00:17:24.380 but I don't see that
00:17:25.360 anywhere else,
00:17:26.600 ever.
00:17:27.880 And so then you think,
00:17:28.640 well, wait a second,
00:17:29.200 if the experience
00:17:30.400 that I have
00:17:30.960 wandering around
00:17:31.420 the country I was born in
00:17:32.440 bears no resemblance
00:17:33.620 to what I'm told,
00:17:34.840 then maybe that's not
00:17:35.560 the only lie
00:17:36.220 they're telling me.
00:17:37.820 And maybe most people
00:17:39.500 do not hate each other
00:17:42.040 despite the best efforts
00:17:44.260 of the people
00:17:44.860 running the country
00:17:45.620 to make them
00:17:46.340 hate each other.
00:17:47.460 For, like, 60 years.
00:17:51.180 All of American history
00:17:52.960 taught from elementary school
00:17:55.660 through postgraduate
00:17:56.600 is designed
00:17:57.340 to make you think
00:17:58.320 that Americans
00:17:58.860 hate each other
00:17:59.460 on the basis of race.
00:18:00.900 That's the whole point of it.
00:18:02.940 It is.
00:18:03.740 I'm not going to use
00:18:04.380 the naughty word
00:18:04.960 you just used,
00:18:05.520 but I endorse it completely.
00:18:07.500 It was a synonym
00:18:08.380 for false
00:18:09.120 and that's exactly
00:18:10.000 what it is.
00:18:10.680 It's false.
00:18:12.320 That is not true.
00:18:14.140 But you think about it
00:18:15.000 for a second,
00:18:15.420 it's like,
00:18:15.720 why would they be
00:18:16.500 telling you that?
00:18:18.160 And then you think
00:18:18.800 about the sort of person
00:18:19.940 who would want
00:18:21.000 a population
00:18:22.240 to hate each other.
00:18:24.340 And that's, like,
00:18:25.120 the darkest thing
00:18:26.040 you could ever want
00:18:26.860 for people.
00:18:27.400 And if you're a parent,
00:18:28.200 you know that.
00:18:29.420 If you're a parent,
00:18:30.640 the most important
00:18:32.020 thing to you
00:18:32.920 is that your children
00:18:34.320 love each other.
00:18:35.220 That's the most important thing.
00:18:37.280 Because they're your children.
00:18:39.500 You're in charge of them.
00:18:41.320 And when you die,
00:18:43.520 all you leave behind,
00:18:45.320 all that remains
00:18:46.200 of your family,
00:18:46.900 all that exists
00:18:47.840 of your life
00:18:49.260 is the love
00:18:49.860 between your children.
00:18:51.740 That's where your memory lives,
00:18:53.280 is in the love
00:18:54.700 that they have
00:18:55.280 for each other.
00:18:56.680 That's the most important thing
00:18:58.100 and it's the most natural thing.
00:18:59.920 You don't need to have
00:19:00.540 read a parenting book
00:19:01.560 or be Dr. Spock
00:19:03.620 to want something like that.
00:19:04.980 You just have to be
00:19:05.400 a normal human being
00:19:06.240 with a normal love
00:19:07.880 for people.
00:19:09.520 And that's true,
00:19:10.180 by the way,
00:19:10.480 for leaders
00:19:10.940 of all organizations,
00:19:12.500 from the family,
00:19:13.320 the smallest
00:19:13.700 to most important,
00:19:14.740 to the workplace,
00:19:15.740 to the military unit,
00:19:17.260 to the state,
00:19:18.020 to the country.
00:19:18.980 Leaders,
00:19:19.820 decent leaders,
00:19:20.600 normal leaders,
00:19:21.480 want the people they lead
00:19:22.820 to love each other.
00:19:24.620 Only a sick
00:19:25.540 and evil leader
00:19:26.720 would intentionally
00:19:28.140 sow hatred
00:19:28.880 between the people
00:19:29.780 he leads.
00:19:30.840 Period.
00:19:32.240 That's not political.
00:19:34.960 That's not wrong.
00:19:36.660 That is evil.
00:19:37.620 That's the definition
00:19:38.620 of evil.
00:19:40.300 Inspiring people
00:19:41.360 to hate each other
00:19:42.540 is the definition
00:19:43.940 of evil.
00:19:44.520 There is no
00:19:45.260 clearer sign.
00:19:47.120 And by the way,
00:19:47.500 that's so unnatural
00:19:48.740 that it's supernatural.
00:19:50.760 That's exactly
00:19:51.380 what that is.
00:19:52.100 You are acting
00:19:53.160 on behalf
00:19:53.680 of unnatural forces
00:19:55.440 if you are convincing
00:19:56.560 the people you lead
00:19:57.340 to hate each other.
00:19:57.940 And that's exactly
00:19:58.640 what your governor
00:19:59.680 and particularly
00:20:00.660 your Attorney General
00:20:01.960 Dana Nessel
00:20:02.440 are doing in this state.
00:20:03.320 And that's what
00:20:03.760 the Biden administration
00:20:04.440 is doing.
00:20:05.260 It's what all of our
00:20:05.960 leaders are doing
00:20:06.560 and have been
00:20:07.080 for a long time.
00:20:07.900 And it's not working.
00:20:09.940 That's the crazy thing.
00:20:11.820 I haven't always been
00:20:12.520 proud of the companies
00:20:13.320 that have advertised
00:20:13.900 on shows I've had
00:20:14.900 over the years.
00:20:15.420 But now that we have
00:20:16.060 our own company,
00:20:16.980 we decided,
00:20:17.720 well,
00:20:17.980 we're only going to
00:20:18.720 take ads
00:20:19.220 from people we like
00:20:20.360 and agree with
00:20:21.180 and admire.
00:20:22.100 So it is with
00:20:22.840 actual pride
00:20:23.860 that we announce
00:20:24.580 partnership
00:20:25.440 with Bass Pro Shops.
00:20:27.420 You know Bass Pro Shops.
00:20:28.820 You can get
00:20:29.200 everything you need
00:20:30.040 for hunting,
00:20:30.960 fishing,
00:20:31.380 enjoying the outdoors
00:20:32.220 at Bass Pro.
00:20:33.260 And we do.
00:20:34.860 What you might not know
00:20:35.780 is that for over 50 years,
00:20:37.260 Bass Pro has been a leader
00:20:38.460 in conservation efforts
00:20:40.060 throughout the continent.
00:20:42.200 Bass Pro is led
00:20:42.860 by our friend,
00:20:43.560 Johnny Morris.
00:20:44.100 He's the visionary founder.
00:20:45.880 Visionary is not too strong,
00:20:46.900 by the way,
00:20:47.280 of that company.
00:20:48.540 And he's put conservation
00:20:49.540 at the core of their mission
00:20:50.760 from the very first day.
00:20:52.320 And by conservation,
00:20:53.100 we're not talking about
00:20:53.660 some weird theoretical
00:20:54.620 climate scheme.
00:20:56.220 We're talking about
00:20:57.280 preserving the natural landscape,
00:21:00.940 preserving the land,
00:21:02.260 the natural resources
00:21:03.240 that we inherited,
00:21:04.360 created by God.
00:21:05.780 So for the last decade,
00:21:06.920 Bass Pro has averaged
00:21:07.760 giving back more than 10%
00:21:09.040 of their earnings
00:21:09.640 to conservation
00:21:10.500 and advancing their mission,
00:21:12.560 a critical mission
00:21:13.400 of introducing people
00:21:14.500 to the outdoors,
00:21:16.020 getting them away
00:21:16.800 from screens
00:21:17.500 into God's great nature,
00:21:20.380 advocating for the rights
00:21:21.200 of sportsmen
00:21:21.940 and conserving wildlife
00:21:23.480 and habitat,
00:21:24.980 which is essential.
00:21:26.200 You hunt or fish,
00:21:26.840 you know.
00:21:27.780 So customers are invited
00:21:28.900 to round up their purchases
00:21:30.200 in-store and online
00:21:31.940 to support Bass Pro Shops
00:21:33.420 and Cabela's Outdoor Fund,
00:21:35.640 which gets invested
00:21:36.440 directly with conservation projects
00:21:37.980 and organizations
00:21:38.800 in the communities they serve.
00:21:40.780 It's all real.
00:21:42.100 So rounding up
00:21:42.800 that little bit of pocket change
00:21:44.020 adds up over time,
00:21:45.480 particularly with a big company
00:21:46.420 like Bass Pro
00:21:47.140 and it makes a big difference.
00:21:49.020 So stop into your nearest
00:21:50.100 Bass Pro Shops or Cabela's
00:21:51.520 to gear up for all
00:21:52.200 your outdoor pursuits,
00:21:53.500 hunting, fishing,
00:21:54.460 being outside.
00:21:55.560 And while you're there,
00:21:56.280 we recommend
00:21:56.920 rounding up for conservation.
00:21:58.540 It doesn't appear
00:22:14.940 to be working.
00:22:16.260 If Americans believe
00:22:18.140 the things they hear
00:22:19.220 about each other
00:22:20.000 and their country,
00:22:21.020 they would have been
00:22:22.180 in a permanent race war
00:22:23.300 like 50 years ago.
00:22:24.480 You wouldn't be able
00:22:26.500 to drive from New York
00:22:27.660 to Los Angeles.
00:22:28.420 There'd be roadblocks
00:22:29.480 of people with guns.
00:22:30.400 It'd be Lebanon.
00:22:32.020 But it's the opposite of that.
00:22:34.540 And so that tells you
00:22:35.680 just once again
00:22:36.640 that the country itself,
00:22:38.200 which means its people
00:22:39.420 and its dogs,
00:22:40.920 dogs are a reflection
00:22:44.780 of the people
00:22:45.260 and we have the best dogs.
00:22:46.440 Heck yes.
00:22:47.080 We have the best dogs
00:22:48.440 in the world.
00:22:50.060 We do.
00:22:51.020 We do.
00:22:53.260 And dogs do take on
00:22:54.640 the characters
00:22:55.140 of their owners.
00:22:56.700 That's true.
00:22:59.500 But the people
00:23:00.760 of this country
00:23:02.200 are loving good people
00:23:04.260 who are being led
00:23:05.280 by the worst people
00:23:06.180 who've ever led a country.
00:23:07.200 And that is just true.
00:23:08.360 I think that's true.
00:23:09.420 I mean it.
00:23:11.060 My loathing,
00:23:12.180 my love of Americans
00:23:13.960 and my loathing
00:23:15.080 of their leaders
00:23:15.700 deepens every day
00:23:16.600 that we're on the road.
00:23:17.580 It really, really does
00:23:18.660 because of the disconnect.
00:23:19.860 So what can you do about it?
00:23:20.700 Well, you can vote.
00:23:21.540 I don't think I've ever
00:23:22.140 encouraged anyone
00:23:22.660 to vote ever.
00:23:24.120 But I feel like
00:23:24.760 in this state
00:23:25.280 it's particularly important.
00:23:26.580 I'm not a political person.
00:23:27.660 I'm not here
00:23:27.980 on behalf of a candidate.
00:23:29.360 Probably guess
00:23:29.820 who I'm voting for.
00:23:30.400 I actually am voting this year.
00:23:32.440 I am.
00:23:33.200 I am.
00:23:35.360 But I do think
00:23:36.800 people should vote
00:23:37.440 in the state of Michigan
00:23:38.240 because there's
00:23:39.280 absolutely no reason
00:23:40.640 you should be led
00:23:41.340 by people
00:23:41.860 who do not share
00:23:43.440 the most basic values
00:23:45.500 of the people of Michigan.
00:23:47.320 And I mean from
00:23:48.040 I always beat up
00:23:49.000 on the east coast
00:23:49.660 of Michigan.
00:23:51.280 My wife is actually
00:23:52.340 from the Detroit area.
00:23:54.700 I know.
00:23:55.460 Oh, I agree.
00:23:56.640 I know.
00:23:57.400 I know.
00:23:58.840 I know.
00:24:00.260 And whenever I talk
00:24:01.160 about Michigan
00:24:01.600 I'm like there are actually
00:24:02.440 two sides to it
00:24:03.560 and the west coast
00:24:04.360 is way nicer.
00:24:07.440 But the truth is
00:24:10.240 there are super nice people
00:24:11.540 over there too
00:24:12.140 and northern Michigan
00:24:12.960 is just like a wonder.
00:24:14.500 It's incredible.
00:24:16.600 And none of you deserve
00:24:17.920 none of you deserve
00:24:19.100 your leaders.
00:24:19.700 None of you.
00:24:20.760 I don't care.
00:24:21.500 It's true.
00:24:22.000 Even the people
00:24:22.500 who vote for them
00:24:23.420 don't deserve them
00:24:24.660 if I can just say.
00:24:26.860 You often hear
00:24:27.580 we get the leaders
00:24:28.280 we deserve.
00:24:28.740 That's a total lie.
00:24:29.420 No, you don't.
00:24:30.740 No, you don't.
00:24:32.040 And you see that
00:24:32.620 around the world.
00:24:33.240 I've been to plenty
00:24:33.860 of countries
00:24:34.320 with horrible leaders.
00:24:35.320 Those people
00:24:35.620 don't deserve them.
00:24:36.400 Nobody deserves
00:24:37.240 leaders like that.
00:24:39.400 And so I did hear
00:24:40.320 of something really cool today.
00:24:41.520 I've never done anything
00:24:41.940 like this
00:24:42.180 but I'm going to do it now.
00:24:43.220 There's actually a website
00:24:44.200 in the state of Michigan
00:24:45.220 where you can find
00:24:46.660 people who
00:24:48.000 probably would vote
00:24:49.400 for the candidate
00:24:50.040 you're voting for
00:24:50.840 but don't vote.
00:24:52.920 And you can look them up.
00:24:53.740 The voter rolls
00:24:54.200 are right there.
00:24:55.000 It's called 10x Votes
00:24:55.900 and you can go on there
00:24:56.840 and just contact people
00:24:58.140 you know
00:24:58.600 and be like,
00:24:59.420 hey, by the way
00:25:00.140 we don't deserve this.
00:25:03.400 These people are horrible
00:25:04.340 and we're not horrible.
00:25:06.060 We're great.
00:25:07.800 And if you're frustrated
00:25:09.000 with these people
00:25:09.760 even if you don't think
00:25:10.320 the system works
00:25:10.900 even if you think
00:25:11.160 it's all fake
00:25:11.980 even if you think
00:25:12.860 they're going to steal it
00:25:13.560 in the end
00:25:14.060 that's not exactly true.
00:25:16.000 You can overwhelm
00:25:16.900 their malintent
00:25:18.220 by your voting.
00:25:20.360 And at the very least
00:25:21.240 you can give them
00:25:22.440 the largest middle finger
00:25:23.560 ever wagged
00:25:24.180 in the face of anybody
00:25:25.200 by voting against them.
00:25:27.820 I do think it's important.
00:25:29.260 Yeah, that finger
00:25:30.280 the one you just waved.
00:25:31.760 That's right.
00:25:32.360 I'm not going to do that
00:25:34.940 because it's wrong
00:25:35.580 but I do love that gesture
00:25:37.260 because it's just
00:25:37.860 I don't trust
00:25:38.980 I'm in the word business
00:25:39.860 and I don't really
00:25:41.000 trust words anymore.
00:25:42.240 I'm not going to do that.
00:25:43.640 Kid Rock's about to be here.
00:25:45.020 He literally has that
00:25:45.900 painted on the tail
00:25:47.500 of his plane.
00:25:51.380 And I'll let him explain
00:25:53.020 who that's aimed at.
00:25:57.500 No, I can't.
00:25:59.160 If my Michigan-born wife
00:26:03.880 saw me hoisting
00:26:06.600 the middle finger
00:26:07.300 in front of some
00:26:08.060 of her relatives
00:26:08.820 who are in this room tonight
00:26:10.480 she would look at me
00:26:14.180 with a pained face
00:26:16.100 in that squeaky
00:26:19.040 and adorable
00:26:19.880 and honestly kind of
00:26:20.960 sexy Michigan accent
00:26:22.320 and say to me
00:26:25.660 that's not very nice.
00:26:27.740 My wife always says
00:26:33.520 to me in her Michigan accent
00:26:34.460 you don't hate anybody.
00:26:38.400 I don't want to admit
00:26:39.320 that actually I kind of do
00:26:40.260 but
00:26:40.620 anyway so before
00:26:45.220 I bring Kid Rock out
00:26:46.040 I would just
00:26:46.580 I
00:26:46.960 I have
00:26:48.420 we've actually thought
00:26:49.140 about even moving here
00:26:50.100 over the years
00:26:50.800 and
00:26:51.220 because that's so much
00:26:51.900 I love it
00:26:52.460 and
00:26:54.800 and maybe we will
00:26:57.680 I mean who knows
00:26:58.240 what's going to happen
00:26:58.940 but if I lived here
00:26:59.800 I would just
00:27:00.400 I would
00:27:01.780 yeah right
00:27:02.520 can you imagine
00:27:05.920 being governor of Michigan
00:27:07.040 that
00:27:08.200 that would be
00:27:09.240 that would be a hard job
00:27:17.100 it would be so great though
00:27:20.240 I'm telling you
00:27:24.960 we would have
00:27:27.000 walleye day
00:27:27.880 if I
00:27:28.320 but the two things
00:27:33.500 I would keep in mind
00:27:34.280 if I lived here
00:27:35.140 the two things
00:27:36.560 I would keep in mind
00:27:37.420 is that
00:27:38.820 actually the people
00:27:40.000 of your state
00:27:40.680 are great
00:27:41.800 your state is great
00:27:43.140 your state is beautiful
00:27:44.180 I would not let them
00:27:45.120 tell you otherwise
00:27:46.060 and even Detroit's
00:27:47.780 a little better
00:27:48.240 than they say
00:27:48.880 I just had dinner there
00:27:49.880 it is
00:27:50.540 it is
00:27:51.120 it is
00:27:51.920 it is
00:27:53.420 I've been to a lot
00:27:54.040 of crappy places
00:27:54.840 around the world
00:27:55.680 and everyone's like
00:27:57.100 oh Detroit
00:27:57.740 you know
00:27:58.280 the Rensen
00:27:59.060 and the Giant Fist
00:28:00.380 and all this stuff
00:28:00.820 it's like
00:28:01.100 it's actually
00:28:01.920 kind of a cool city
00:28:03.180 I'm just being honest
00:28:04.000 this is a cool state
00:28:05.980 it really
00:28:07.980 it really is
00:28:09.140 from the top
00:28:09.880 to the bottom
00:28:10.900 it is a cool state
00:28:12.460 and by the way
00:28:13.480 when Chicago burned
00:28:14.900 everyone's like
00:28:15.800 oh Chicago's so cool
00:28:16.400 where did all the wood
00:28:17.860 come from
00:28:18.480 to rebuild Chicago
00:28:19.460 does anyone know
00:28:20.080 it came from Michigan
00:28:23.280 and what does that tell you
00:28:25.300 it tells you
00:28:26.900 that everybody
00:28:27.820 wants a piece of Michigan
00:28:28.980 okay
00:28:29.460 that's the first thing
00:28:30.140 it tells you
00:28:30.740 the second thing
00:28:32.000 it tells you
00:28:32.600 is have a little
00:28:33.520 self-respect
00:28:34.360 okay
00:28:35.120 if Illinois comes knocking
00:28:36.320 and is like
00:28:36.640 we want all your stuff
00:28:37.400 say you took it once
00:28:38.220 never again
00:28:39.000 we're Michigan
00:28:39.980 okay
00:28:40.760 okay
00:28:42.380 but just remember
00:28:43.800 that what you have
00:28:44.660 is awesome
00:28:45.460 it is just awesome
00:28:46.860 it's people in the landscape
00:28:48.340 it's awesome
00:28:49.380 and it is
00:28:50.040 you know
00:28:50.640 I can understand
00:28:51.220 why people leave
00:28:51.800 I'm in Florida a lot
00:28:53.280 and you meet an awful lot
00:28:54.360 of people from Michigan
00:28:55.100 I know
00:28:55.740 and they're like
00:28:57.220 oh yeah we moved to Florida
00:28:58.020 we couldn't deal with it
00:28:58.560 and you're like
00:28:59.080 I get it
00:28:59.620 I get it
00:29:00.660 but I don't know
00:29:02.440 stay and fight
00:29:03.220 I guess that's what I would say
00:29:04.480 it's worth it
00:29:05.140 okay
00:29:05.640 that's the first thing
00:29:07.060 I would remember
00:29:07.680 and the second thing
00:29:09.160 I would remember
00:29:09.800 is that you're not crazy
00:29:11.900 you're not crazy
00:29:13.940 they spend all their time
00:29:15.320 trying to convince you
00:29:16.100 it's such a psyop
00:29:17.640 you're crazy
00:29:19.340 I'm crazy
00:29:21.360 have you ever seen
00:29:22.060 Dana Nessel
00:29:22.600 that
00:29:23.000 talk about crazy eyes
00:29:24.800 by the way
00:29:26.220 if you have time
00:29:27.380 like when you get home tonight
00:29:28.560 you got your iPhone
00:29:29.320 if you don't know
00:29:30.680 who Dana Nessel is
00:29:31.720 I mean you should
00:29:32.480 because she has a big effect
00:29:33.480 on your state
00:29:33.840 type in her face
00:29:36.440 into Google Images
00:29:37.360 and just like
00:29:38.280 expand it
00:29:38.900 and look at her eyes
00:29:39.780 whoa
00:29:41.100 if you've ever
00:29:42.260 trapped a raccoon
00:29:43.360 in the garage
00:29:44.000 with a broom
00:29:44.600 no I'm serious
00:29:47.620 and like you go
00:29:49.460 through your life
00:29:49.940 like oh raccoons
00:29:50.860 are so cute
00:29:51.600 and their little hands
00:29:52.540 they kind of have
00:29:53.080 opposable thumbs
00:29:54.100 and their little
00:29:55.220 like rubber mask eyes
00:29:56.660 and they're so cute
00:29:57.620 you ever catch one
00:29:59.100 in the garage
00:29:59.640 eating dog food
00:30:00.460 at night
00:30:00.900 whoa
00:30:01.800 you realize
00:30:03.560 this is a vicious
00:30:04.860 animals
00:30:05.260 bite your face off
00:30:06.560 right
00:30:06.840 and you know
00:30:08.620 from their eyes
00:30:09.360 and Dana Nessel
00:30:10.180 has those eyes
00:30:11.180 so for Dana Nessel
00:30:14.280 to be calling you crazy
00:30:15.700 are you joking
00:30:16.720 uh no
00:30:18.120 you're not the crazy ones
00:30:19.960 and that is the beauty
00:30:21.540 of an event like this
00:30:22.940 is you get to be in a room
00:30:24.780 and you can feel it
00:30:25.600 even if you don't talk
00:30:26.200 to anybody
00:30:26.460 you can feel the vibe
00:30:27.180 I can feel it
00:30:27.700 backstage
00:30:28.040 one of the people
00:30:29.160 I traveled with
00:30:29.920 from Maine
00:30:30.380 said to me
00:30:31.280 oh do you feel the vibe
00:30:32.180 out there
00:30:32.420 we're good people
00:30:33.320 you can literally feel it
00:30:34.980 and what that tells you
00:30:38.040 is
00:30:38.580 that
00:30:40.440 the things that you want
00:30:42.280 like
00:30:44.280 decent schools
00:30:45.420 and roads
00:30:46.500 without holes in them
00:30:47.540 and the ability
00:30:48.300 to walk to the grocery store
00:30:49.780 without getting mugged
00:30:50.840 and like an inflation rate
00:30:52.700 that's under 12%
00:30:53.760 and
00:30:54.540 maybe a little cottage
00:30:56.800 you share with your cousins
00:30:57.960 up north
00:30:58.560 like just sort of
00:30:59.440 normal things
00:31:00.280 maybe a little continuity
00:31:03.240 maybe the right
00:31:05.080 to live in a state
00:31:05.880 that's not completely
00:31:06.960 different from the state
00:31:07.840 you grew up in
00:31:08.620 that's a right
00:31:10.680 actually
00:31:11.320 they're always
00:31:13.300 inventing rights
00:31:14.280 you have a right
00:31:14.920 to this
00:31:15.320 you have a right
00:31:15.840 to that
00:31:16.180 which usually means
00:31:16.780 you're getting nothing
00:31:17.540 okay
00:31:18.000 yeah
00:31:20.580 oh I'm aware
00:31:21.640 baby
00:31:21.980 and I'm aware
00:31:24.340 and again
00:31:25.620 you use profanity
00:31:26.660 but I'm with you
00:31:27.360 okay
00:31:27.880 but there is
00:31:30.780 a right
00:31:31.360 that every person has
00:31:32.760 which is to be
00:31:33.480 a little bit insulated
00:31:34.720 from like having
00:31:35.360 their state invaded
00:31:36.140 and changed overnight
00:31:37.000 actually
00:31:37.680 sorry
00:31:38.140 it's just true
00:31:39.220 like you
00:31:40.500 you shouldn't wake up
00:31:42.060 in a place
00:31:42.580 where you were born
00:31:43.440 and not recognized
00:31:44.480 everything's totally different
00:31:45.680 all the attitudes
00:31:46.260 different
00:31:46.460 the people are different
00:31:47.320 the economy's totally different
00:31:48.880 that's like an act
00:31:50.300 of violence against you
00:31:51.220 actually
00:31:51.640 that's not the promise
00:31:53.220 of America
00:31:53.800 the promise of America
00:31:54.820 is
00:31:55.300 that things get a little better
00:31:56.760 not maybe radically better
00:31:57.860 but your kids have a shot
00:31:58.660 at a little better life
00:31:59.300 than you had
00:31:59.860 that's the American dream
00:32:01.500 the American dream
00:32:04.260 is not that you wake up
00:32:05.480 and like you don't even
00:32:06.180 recognize this place
00:32:07.480 and you know for a fact
00:32:09.860 that your kids
00:32:10.380 are not going to be
00:32:11.040 going to the little cottage
00:32:11.900 they share with their cousins
00:32:12.820 up north
00:32:13.420 they're not going to be able
00:32:14.560 to afford a house
00:32:15.320 that's the opposite
00:32:17.340 of the American dream
00:32:18.660 so I guess what I'm saying
00:32:20.120 is what you want
00:32:21.080 is totally
00:32:21.980 sensible
00:32:23.020 and moderate
00:32:24.440 and reasonable
00:32:26.300 and human
00:32:27.360 and basic
00:32:28.280 it's not crazy
00:32:30.080 it's not asking
00:32:31.400 for like a fleet
00:32:32.320 of helicopters
00:32:33.080 or free ice cream
00:32:35.140 they're the free
00:32:36.620 ice cream party
00:32:37.340 you just
00:32:38.980 kind of want to go
00:32:40.060 to the grocery store
00:32:41.260 without getting mugged
00:32:42.160 or going broke
00:32:43.580 and they tell you
00:32:46.220 that you're insane
00:32:47.320 because you're against
00:32:48.200 like I don't know
00:32:48.760 castrating children
00:32:49.600 that's not insane
00:32:50.620 they're insane
00:32:51.840 so just
00:32:54.060 look around
00:32:55.220 remember that
00:32:57.300 take heart
00:32:58.780 you are not
00:33:00.580 the freak
00:33:01.520 Dana Nessel's
00:33:03.940 the freak
00:33:04.580 with sharp teeth
00:33:06.980 and raccoon eyes
00:33:08.380 Gretchen Whitmer
00:33:10.420 is the freak
00:33:11.380 with the facelift
00:33:13.040 and the paint sales
00:33:14.960 bands
00:33:15.460 you're a freak
00:33:16.480 dude
00:33:16.700 if you had a cousin
00:33:17.440 like that growing up
00:33:18.660 and she came over
00:33:19.920 to Thanksgiving
00:33:20.460 people would talk
00:33:21.360 very quietly around her
00:33:22.740 because who knows
00:33:24.380 once she has a fork
00:33:25.160 in her hand
00:33:25.560 who knows what
00:33:26.060 she'll do with it
00:33:26.740 everybody has a relative
00:33:28.920 like that
00:33:29.400 how did yours
00:33:30.000 become governor
00:33:30.700 I don't know
00:33:31.660 but don't let her
00:33:33.320 convince you
00:33:34.180 that she's the normal one
00:33:35.960 she's not
00:33:37.000 well
00:33:38.440 sorry
00:33:39.520 and so with that
00:33:42.500 let me introduce
00:33:43.400 somebody
00:33:43.960 who needs
00:33:45.320 no introduction
00:33:46.600 whatsoever
00:33:47.780 the only thing
00:33:49.980 I will add to this
00:33:51.120 I called him
00:33:51.800 the most faithful
00:33:52.840 loyal son
00:33:53.500 of the state of Michigan
00:33:54.180 and he is
00:33:55.020 I will also just add
00:33:56.660 one humble brag
00:33:57.720 by saying
00:33:58.540 he's also my friend
00:33:59.780 ladies and gentlemen
00:34:01.200 Kid Rock
00:34:01.920 oh yeah

00:34:20.700 I'm in the dressing room
00:34:22.560 you mind if I start this off
00:34:24.100 oh dude
00:34:24.820 it's all yours
00:34:25.700 I literally
00:34:26.760 this is how twisted I am
00:34:28.040 I'm in the dressing room
00:34:29.160 and it's very nice
00:34:31.160 got some cold beer in there
00:34:32.400 ashtray
00:34:33.220 a little meat and cheese tray
00:34:34.240 and snack tray
00:34:34.980 and so
00:34:36.360 you know
00:34:36.820 I'm looking at snack tray
00:34:37.840 I'm like
00:34:38.240 yeah you got Doritos
00:34:39.200 Fritos

00:34:45.500 from the 80's
00:34:47.440 yeah
00:34:47.780 well
00:34:48.320 so I asked one of my
00:34:49.680 my friend Corey
00:34:50.560 I'm like
00:34:51.000 dude
00:34:51.800 when's the last time
00:34:52.840 you had a Twinkie
00:34:53.640 he's like
00:34:55.280 man I don't remember
00:34:56.960 and I'm like
00:34:57.460 I remember my mom
00:34:58.380 used to like
00:34:59.460 put them in our lunch
00:35:00.500 in elementary school
00:35:02.000 like on a special occasion
00:35:03.480 I go
00:35:04.260 when's the last time
00:35:05.420 you had a Twinkie
00:35:05.980 I had
00:35:09.440 it's been a long time
00:35:10.060 I had one in 1987
00:35:11.220 it was my last Twinkie
00:35:12.280 right
00:35:12.660 so
00:35:13.020 the last time I had a Winston cigarette
00:35:14.060 so
00:35:14.320 I thought about it again
00:35:15.780 I'm like
00:35:16.340 I can't remember
00:35:17.860 when the last time
00:35:18.500 I had a Twinkie
00:35:19.100 and no one else can either
00:35:20.000 I was like
00:35:20.380 they should rename
00:35:21.620 these things blowjobs
00:35:22.980 I didn't hear what you said
00:35:29.520 I'm working clean tonight
00:35:33.400 seriously
00:35:36.480 are there children here
00:35:37.460 I don't want to be using
00:35:38.240 curse words
00:35:38.920 if there's children here
00:35:39.940 so
00:35:43.380 you're a busy man
00:35:45.740 and this is
00:35:47.420 only my sister-in-law
00:35:52.400 calls me Tuck
00:35:53.280 that's hilarious
00:35:54.180 she's from Michigan
00:35:55.300 actually
00:35:55.880 so great
00:35:57.360 what
00:35:59.360 what do you think
00:36:01.520 is going on
00:36:02.140 with this election
00:36:02.760 right now
00:36:03.320 I think
00:36:06.100 Trump's gonna kick
00:36:07.060 their ass
00:36:07.760 honestly
00:36:08.340 I don't
00:36:12.040 it reminds me
00:36:13.620 of 2016
00:36:14.640 I mean
00:36:15.480 I literally went to bed
00:36:16.580 like a lot of people
00:36:17.380 that night
00:36:17.900 you know
00:36:18.180 pulling for Trump
00:36:19.020 on his team
00:36:19.660 you know
00:36:19.900 being very vocal
00:36:20.700 I was like
00:36:21.740 I'm going to bed
00:36:22.420 and
00:36:22.980 without a lot of faith
00:36:25.380 I mean
00:36:25.960 all the polls
00:36:26.620 told you this
00:36:27.360 they had you convinced
00:36:28.540 if you looked at
00:36:29.360 any television
00:36:30.300 like
00:36:30.660 there's no way
00:36:31.860 he was a joke
00:36:32.820 since he came down
00:36:33.580 the elevator
00:36:34.220 you know
00:36:35.280 and so were a lot of us
00:36:36.420 that supported him
00:36:37.200 since he came down
00:36:38.040 that elevator
00:36:38.740 and still been getting
00:36:39.620 shit till this day
00:36:40.880 which is fine
00:36:42.280 I kind of like it
00:36:43.100 but
00:36:43.560 it reminded me of that
00:36:45.100 and then woke up
00:36:45.720 the next morning
00:36:46.320 like
00:36:46.620 Trump won
00:36:47.300 I'm like
00:36:47.600 what
00:36:48.020 I
00:36:49.540 you know
00:36:50.100 and I
00:36:51.120 it
00:36:52.040 it just has the same
00:36:53.120 feeling to me
00:36:53.940 I'm not a vibey person
00:36:55.700 but
00:36:57.540 it just has that feeling
00:36:58.980 to me
00:36:59.180 what's going on
00:36:59.920 I mean
00:37:00.360 I don't know
00:37:01.320 how you can look at this
00:37:02.260 I mean
00:37:02.480 did you see that
00:37:02.880 Oprah thing yesterday
00:37:04.180 I did
00:37:06.340 but I would
00:37:06.800 for those
00:37:07.300 I don't know
00:37:07.760 how many
00:37:08.260 faithful Oprah watchers
00:37:10.140 we have in this
00:37:10.860 in this room
00:37:11.520 but
00:37:11.700 tell us about it
00:37:13.060 I think everybody's
00:37:17.000 I don't know
00:37:17.660 at least
00:37:18.020 I didn't watch it
00:37:19.120 but I caught wind of it
00:37:20.020 you know
00:37:20.360 on you know
00:37:21.640 the morning news
00:37:22.340 and stuff
00:37:22.780 it was a joke
00:37:23.420 it was a complete joke
00:37:24.780 well
00:37:25.840 in the
00:37:26.760 in the interview
00:37:27.360 that you're referring to
00:37:28.260 Kamala Harris
00:37:28.960 like the big
00:37:29.600 fact of the debate
00:37:31.120 from my perspective
00:37:32.340 was the fact that
00:37:33.860 Kamala Harris
00:37:34.580 owns a gun
00:37:35.420 and
00:37:36.920 yeah
00:37:37.160 but nobody
00:37:37.840 what
00:37:38.220 why is she allowed
00:37:39.200 to have a gun
00:37:39.720 but nobody
00:37:40.480 not nobody
00:37:41.520 that she's done
00:37:42.460 her little interviews
00:37:43.180 with or anything
00:37:43.740 that says
00:37:44.160 what kind of gun
00:37:45.980 do you own
00:37:46.380 yeah
00:37:46.560 exactly
00:37:47.100 you know
00:37:48.240 just start there
00:37:49.020 is it a Red Ryder
00:37:50.320 BB gun
00:37:50.900 do you have
00:37:53.040 a shotgun
00:37:53.660 you know
00:37:54.620 what size caliber
00:37:55.560 bullet do you shoot
00:37:56.600 you know
00:37:56.960 do you practice
00:37:57.700 with your
00:37:58.240 arm pieces
00:37:59.160 for self defense
00:38:00.180 at home
00:38:00.640 she just says
00:38:01.640 I have a gun
00:38:02.240 and everyone
00:38:02.520 goes oh my god
00:38:03.400 she's so middle
00:38:04.080 she's so in the middle
00:38:05.080 and then you got
00:38:06.460 this ass
00:38:06.980 I'd like to watch her
00:38:07.420 clean it
00:38:07.900 and then
00:38:08.380 while we're at it
00:38:09.040 then you got
00:38:09.360 this ass clown
00:38:10.140 Tim Walsh
00:38:10.900 right
00:38:11.180 oh my god
00:38:12.160 I'll get them
00:38:16.180 I'll get them
00:38:17.160 they don't mess
00:38:20.100 with a songwriter
00:38:20.860 or a comedian
00:38:21.720 so I'm listening
00:38:23.900 to this guy
00:38:24.380 and he honestly
00:38:25.280 reminds me
00:38:25.940 of like
00:38:26.260 I think of a few
00:38:27.080 junior high
00:38:27.800 and high school
00:38:28.300 teachers
00:38:28.700 that I absolutely
00:38:29.660 hated
00:38:30.460 right
00:38:31.020 Mr. Self-Righteous
00:38:32.600 hey guys
00:38:33.480 they're gonna do it
00:38:34.280 this way
00:38:34.780 you know
00:38:35.340 blah blah blah
00:38:35.980 I'm right
00:38:36.640 I'm right
00:38:37.260 you know
00:38:37.740 I coach football
00:38:38.620 this that and the other
00:38:39.700 and then he's
00:38:40.200 you know
00:38:40.500 wearing a camo hat
00:38:42.000 like I'm
00:38:42.520 I'm the best shot
00:38:43.580 I like to hunt
00:38:44.660 I'm a hunter
00:38:45.460 I'm like
00:38:46.040 yeah what do you hunt
00:38:47.040 cocks and dicks
00:38:48.420 I don't know why
00:38:51.640 and I don't want to be
00:38:52.840 unfair or whatever
00:38:53.820 but every time I see him
00:38:54.780 talk I think of that
00:38:55.500 scene from Airplane
00:38:56.760 where the pilot's like
00:38:58.340 ever seen a grown man
00:39:00.180 naked Johnny
00:39:00.740 I'll tell you this much
00:39:04.200 that Tim Walsh
00:39:05.320 has seen one up close
00:39:06.480 if you know what I mean
00:39:07.440 I can't confirm or deny
00:39:11.660 I told Trump
00:39:12.720 I told Trump actually
00:39:13.160 you know
00:39:14.480 we more have fun together
00:39:15.980 I'm not the big policy guy
00:39:17.760 I'm happy to
00:39:18.780 give my opinion
00:39:19.880 if asked or whatever
00:39:20.840 but you know
00:39:21.360 I'm not a political scientist
00:39:22.540 I'm an average person
00:39:23.880 when it comes in regards
00:39:25.020 like that
00:39:25.600 like most people
00:39:26.760 but
00:39:27.040 you know
00:39:28.160 we're always looking for
00:39:29.020 I like the fun name game
00:39:30.880 you know
00:39:31.420 this that and the other
00:39:32.120 and I was like
00:39:33.000 got something for Tim Walsh yet
00:39:34.760 I was like
00:39:35.200 how about
00:39:35.520 Tampon Timmy
00:39:36.700 right
00:39:37.340 and I think
00:39:39.400 I think even Trump said
00:39:40.720 I might be a little too far
00:39:42.520 I got all sorts of them
00:39:45.740 you know
00:39:46.080 I'm like
00:39:47.200 you know
00:39:47.400 one of his
00:39:47.900 my favorite policies
00:39:49.040 of Trump is
00:39:49.840 you know
00:39:50.460 without starting wars
00:39:53.560 it's
00:39:53.860 what do they call it again
00:39:55.240 strength through strength
00:39:57.980 peace through strength
00:39:59.520 peace through strength
00:40:01.360 I think that's genius
00:40:02.180 of course
00:40:02.640 if it was my policy
00:40:03.680 I'd call it
00:40:04.320 fuck around
00:40:05.220 and find out
00:40:06.020 I think it's a similar principle
00:40:09.940 most of us
00:40:11.340 well actually
00:40:11.920 all of us
00:40:12.640 go through our daily lives
00:40:13.660 using all sorts of
00:40:14.540 quote free technology
00:40:16.080 without paying attention
00:40:18.020 to why it's
00:40:18.780 quote free
00:40:19.660 who's paying for this
00:40:21.080 and how
00:40:21.680 think about it
00:40:23.200 for a minute
00:40:23.520 think about your
00:40:24.060 free email account
00:40:25.540 the free messenger system
00:40:27.340 used to chat
00:40:27.880 with your friends
00:40:28.560 the free weather app
00:40:30.760 or game app
00:40:31.740 you open up
00:40:32.360 and never think about
00:40:33.340 it's all free
00:40:34.240 but is it
00:40:35.820 no
00:40:36.240 it's not free
00:40:37.520 these companies
00:40:39.120 aren't developing
00:40:39.920 expensive products
00:40:40.960 and just giving them
00:40:41.800 to you
00:40:42.100 because they
00:40:42.440 love you
00:40:43.480 they're doing it
00:40:44.760 because their programs
00:40:45.840 take all your information
00:40:46.920 they hoover up
00:40:48.000 your data
00:40:48.540 private
00:40:49.160 personal data
00:40:50.240 and sell it
00:40:51.180 to data brokers
00:40:51.980 and the government
00:40:53.460 and all of those
00:40:55.520 people who are
00:40:56.100 not your friends
00:40:56.840 are very interested
00:40:57.920 in manipulating you
00:40:59.100 and your personal
00:41:00.260 political
00:41:00.880 and financial decisions
00:41:02.240 it's scary
00:41:02.920 as hell
00:41:03.700 and it's happening
00:41:04.640 out in the open
00:41:05.360 without anybody
00:41:05.880 saying anything
00:41:06.460 about it
00:41:06.900 this is a huge problem
00:41:08.940 and we've been talking
00:41:09.980 about this problem
00:41:10.860 to our friend
00:41:11.840 Eric Prince
00:41:12.340 for years
00:41:12.940 someone needs to fix this
00:41:14.040 and he and his partners
00:41:15.660 have
00:41:16.140 and now we're partners
00:41:17.000 with them
00:41:17.500 and their company
00:41:18.240 is called
00:41:18.640 Unplugged
00:41:19.600 it's not a software company
00:41:21.260 it's a hardware company
00:41:22.880 they actually make
00:41:23.620 a phone
00:41:24.280 the phone is called
00:41:25.800 Unplugged
00:41:26.520 and it's more than that
00:41:28.000 the purpose of the phone
00:41:29.360 is to protect you
00:41:30.720 from having
00:41:32.060 your life stolen
00:41:34.920 your data stolen
00:41:35.940 it's designed
00:41:36.980 from a privacy
00:41:37.820 first perspective
00:41:39.060 it's got an operating
00:41:41.140 system that they made
00:41:41.980 it's called Messenger
00:41:42.700 and other apps
00:41:43.360 that help you
00:41:43.740 take charge
00:41:44.320 of your personal data
00:41:45.180 and prevent it
00:41:45.860 from getting
00:41:46.340 passed around
00:41:47.660 to data brokers
00:41:48.620 and government agencies
00:41:49.800 that will use it
00:41:50.460 to manipulate you
00:41:51.460 Unplugged
00:41:52.780 Scammon
00:41:53.080 is to its customers
00:41:54.060 they will promise you
00:41:55.420 and they mean it
00:41:56.000 that your data
00:41:56.580 are not being sold
00:41:57.900 or monetized
00:41:58.740 or shared with anyone
00:41:59.360 from basics
00:42:01.580 like its custom
00:42:02.400 Libertas operating system
00:42:03.720 which they wrote
00:42:04.400 which is designed
00:42:05.660 from the very first day
00:42:06.740 to keep your personal data
00:42:07.820 on your device
00:42:09.000 it also has
00:42:10.340 believe it or not
00:42:10.820 a true
00:42:11.480 on-off switch
00:42:13.180 that shuts off the power
00:42:14.220 it actually disconnects
00:42:15.240 your battery
00:42:15.800 and ensures
00:42:17.120 that your microphone
00:42:18.200 and your camera
00:42:19.040 are turned off
00:42:19.860 completely
00:42:20.420 when you want them to be
00:42:21.880 so they're not spying
00:42:23.100 on you
00:42:23.480 in say your bedroom
00:42:24.220 which your iPhone is
00:42:25.400 that's a fact
00:42:26.480 so it is a great way
00:42:29.000 one of the few ways
00:42:29.680 to actually protect yourself
00:42:30.960 from big tech
00:42:31.780 and big government
00:42:32.740 to reclaim
00:42:33.820 your personal privacy
00:42:35.100 without privacy

00:43:27.540 when I really got to know
00:43:28.480 him he was president
00:43:29.120 that was very enamoring
00:43:30.200 very nerve wracking
00:43:31.680 like it would be
00:43:32.220 in any situation

00:43:36.640 in the White House
00:43:37.280 and that was great
00:43:38.160 and then you know
00:43:38.720 our first time golfing
00:43:39.820 it's like
00:43:40.140 it's
00:43:40.500 when he's a president

00:45:09.060 right
00:45:09.620 you know

00:45:20.200 I'm like
00:45:21.380 no sir
00:45:21.840 he's like
00:45:22.160 remember when people
00:45:23.680 used to drink
00:45:24.160 out of the same bottle
00:45:25.080 just normal shit
00:45:30.040 like
00:45:30.980 it's not a weirdo
00:45:32.780 they make him out
00:45:33.480 to be some crazed
00:45:34.800 freak
00:45:35.600 in the press
00:45:36.420 and like
00:45:37.040 you know
00:45:38.060 and they've done
00:45:38.760 that to us all
00:45:39.480 they've done that
00:45:40.100 to you
00:45:40.440 they've tried
00:45:40.840 to do it
00:45:41.180 to me
00:45:41.400 I'd rather like it
00:45:42.540 myself
00:45:43.100 you know
00:45:43.460 like
00:45:43.640 go for it
00:45:44.280 like
00:45:44.560 but he's just
00:45:47.200 he's just a terrific
00:45:48.080 human being man
00:45:49.020 and he's
00:45:49.380 he's so much fun
00:45:50.440 to be around
00:45:51.080 so much fun
00:45:52.100 to be around
00:45:52.740 I
00:45:54.160 I think
00:45:54.920 if there's one thing
00:45:56.560 I'd say about Trump
00:45:57.500 that I don't think
00:45:58.480 he gets credit for
00:45:59.780 and really deserves
00:46:00.600 credit for
00:46:01.140 I think he's one of
00:46:01.920 the funniest people
00:46:02.560 I've ever met
00:46:03.000 in my entire life
00:46:03.760 hands down
00:46:04.500 hands down
00:46:06.140 funny
00:46:07.840 I wonder if I should
00:46:09.020 tell this story
00:46:09.780 I think you should
00:46:10.540 ah
00:46:11.040 oh it's so good
00:46:17.520 I hate to speak
00:46:21.540 out of school
00:46:22.240 you know what I mean
00:46:22.920 no
00:46:23.140 you're

00:46:27.120 alright
00:46:27.760 so
00:46:29.420 well the first times
00:46:31.620 when the White House
00:46:32.800 was having dinner
00:46:33.440 it was Sarah Palin
00:46:34.440 um
00:46:36.040 Trump invited
00:46:37.040 Sarah
00:46:37.340 this was very early
00:46:38.580 when he'd just
00:46:40.120 gotten into
00:46:40.720 the White House
00:46:41.880 and um
00:46:42.740 and Trump said
00:46:44.800 invite some interesting
00:46:45.580 people
00:46:46.020 so she called me
00:46:47.380 and Ted Nugent

00:46:49.080 pretty interesting
00:46:51.920 dinner party
00:46:53.660 so
00:46:54.300 we go in the Oval Office
00:46:55.940 to meet him

00:49:16.080 I'm just like
00:49:16.680 oh my gosh
00:49:17.900 this is mind blowing
00:49:18.680 but that's
00:49:19.180 you know
00:49:19.440 just how down to earth
00:49:20.600 he is
00:49:20.920 you know
00:49:21.180 I guess
00:49:21.580 I don't think
00:49:22.960 I'm anybody
00:49:23.440 more special
00:49:24.260 of any other friend
00:49:25.120 than he has
00:49:25.780 and just
00:49:27.420 that type of guy
00:49:28.240 he's like
00:49:28.560 and the one thing
00:49:29.580 he said about that
00:49:30.380 when he's showing us around
00:49:31.160 I go
00:49:31.340 I can't believe
00:49:31.940 you're showing us all this
00:49:32.780 he goes
00:49:33.060 this is the people's house
00:49:34.740 this is your house
00:49:36.220 man that says it all
00:49:41.580 right there
00:49:42.280 that says it all
00:49:43.580 and there's been
00:49:44.780 a million other instances
00:49:45.860 that I probably
00:49:46.780 can't recall right now
00:49:48.000 and rock and roll
00:49:49.480 has not been
00:49:50.020 too kind to my memory
00:49:51.360 I think you're doing
00:49:53.400 pretty well
00:49:53.940 considering the road miles
00:49:55.060 so why do you think
00:49:59.900 why do you think
00:50:01.120 a certain sort of person
00:50:02.580 hates him so much
00:50:03.880 I can't understand that
00:50:07.400 it's
00:50:08.520 because it's a level of hatred
00:50:10.420 I've only gotten it
00:50:11.300 one time
00:50:12.280 and it was a kid
00:50:13.380 that was drunk
00:50:13.920 I had a MAGA hat on somewhere
00:50:15.360 and actually
00:50:16.020 you were involved
00:50:16.660 now that I think of it
00:50:18.060 naturally
00:50:18.660 the kid comes up
00:50:19.380 at this restaurant
00:50:20.120 we have in Nashville
00:50:21.240 and he's like
00:50:21.740 and he's kind of
00:50:24.580 standing there
00:50:25.080 and I'm like
00:50:25.420 there's some politicians
00:50:26.740 in there
00:50:27.020 he looked like he might
00:50:27.900 have been a military kid
00:50:28.920 and people come up
00:50:30.080 and say hello
00:50:30.680 picture
00:50:31.480 life's turned into a picture
00:50:33.140 as you know
00:50:33.820 this that and the other
00:50:35.180 and I'm kind of looking
00:50:36.060 and he's like
00:50:36.460 fuck Tucker Carlson
00:50:39.520 fucking Trump hat
00:50:43.700 I'm like
00:50:46.200 I'm like
00:50:46.220 I'm like
00:50:48.040 okay
00:50:48.480 well you done yet
00:50:53.720 yeah
00:50:55.360 that's like literally
00:50:56.360 one of the only times
00:50:57.180 but why people hate him
00:50:58.180 so much
00:50:58.640 I don't know
00:51:00.200 I guess they hate winners
00:51:01.200 jealousy
00:51:02.640 envy
00:51:03.720 I can't figure it out
00:51:09.000 you know
00:51:09.540 I've heard
00:51:10.380 I've talked to my
00:51:11.040 democratic friends
00:51:11.840 I have a lot of
00:51:12.360 liberal friends
00:51:12.960 obviously
00:51:13.380 the business I'm in
00:51:14.420 you know
00:51:15.260 it's kind of what it is

00:51:17.240 with anybody
00:51:17.720 they can think differently

00:51:45.240 I watch Fox News
00:51:46.580 you know
00:51:47.480 I'm a little bit of a news whore
00:51:49.180 you know what I mean
00:51:50.240 not sure how healthy it is
00:51:51.920 you'll watch anybody
00:51:52.880 you just like to watch
00:51:54.300 but honestly

00:52:10.780 that's a lot
00:52:12.240 that's a lot
00:52:12.920 it's ambitious
00:52:13.480 but I did think of that
00:52:14.740 and I'm like
00:52:15.460 I always try
00:52:16.520 believe it or not
00:52:17.300 to try to find the positive
00:52:18.560 in anything
00:52:19.760 you know
00:52:20.180 I'd at least search for it
00:52:21.560 before I turn into
00:52:22.680 Negative Nancy
00:52:23.440 and I'm like
00:52:23.940 you know
00:52:25.800 sometimes Costco
00:52:26.780 just has a good sale
00:52:27.940 hey
00:52:28.680 you can't pass it up
00:52:31.000 you gotta get the pallet
00:52:32.000 yep
00:52:32.380 I got it
00:52:33.100 I did that with
00:52:35.100 Styrofoam cups one year
00:52:36.280 they're still in the garage
00:52:37.140 um
00:52:38.140 a little different
00:52:39.240 uh
00:52:40.160 it's
00:52:40.940 so um
00:52:44.420 you are in this business
00:52:46.840 you've been in this business
00:52:47.760 entertainment
00:52:48.320 music
00:52:49.100 among artists
00:52:49.760 your entire life
00:52:50.760 and
00:52:51.960 I bet there are
00:52:53.340 some who agree with you
00:52:54.360 but there are very
00:52:55.060 very few
00:52:55.640 who've been as honest
00:52:56.820 about
00:52:57.340 having the views
00:52:58.760 that you have
00:52:59.380 was that a tough
00:53:00.560 decision
00:53:00.920 I mean it's gotta be
00:53:01.520 a decision
00:53:01.860 you're in a business
00:53:02.860 why'd you make
00:53:04.700 that decision
00:53:05.300 I mean part of it was
00:53:08.360 you know I got older
00:53:09.220 and wiser
00:53:09.680 but to be honest
00:53:10.880 like
00:53:11.180 I had the money
00:53:12.200 in the bank
00:53:12.840 and
00:53:13.580 at the end of the day
00:53:15.040 when I really thought
00:53:16.540 about it
00:53:16.900 I just
00:53:17.300 sounds hokey
00:53:18.620 but I just care about
00:53:19.660 this country
00:53:20.180 too much
00:53:20.840 and
00:53:23.460 and
00:53:27.900 and I said
00:53:30.320 you know
00:53:30.580 I kind of said
00:53:31.220 you know
00:53:31.540 and it wasn't really
00:53:32.900 a conscious thing
00:53:33.540 I just started
00:53:34.360 kind of doing it
00:53:35.080 you know
00:53:35.340 getting involved
00:53:35.960 and
00:53:36.300 one thing led to another
00:53:37.820 and it was
00:53:38.300 it was like
00:53:38.800 you know
00:53:39.020 it was kind of
00:53:39.520 you know
00:53:39.720 I had a couple talks
00:53:40.440 with just friends
00:53:40.980 I'm not one of these people
00:53:41.880 that has this big
00:53:42.660 machine team
00:53:43.700 have this big team
00:53:45.020 around them
00:53:45.520 where you know
00:53:45.940 every
00:53:46.220 clearly every tweet
00:53:47.720 is not screened
00:53:49.100 I picked up on that
00:53:51.160 everything that comes out
00:53:51.600 of my mouth
00:53:52.160 or the decisions I make
00:53:53.580 it's I take responsibility
00:53:54.580 for it all
00:53:55.180 it's me
00:53:55.580 there's no filters in there
00:53:56.860 but
00:53:57.600 when it came
00:53:58.720 it was like
00:53:59.080 you know
00:53:59.240 there's going to be
00:53:59.720 no corporate deals
00:54:00.660 to set any other
00:54:01.360 and I'm like
00:54:01.820 good
00:54:02.860 I'm like
00:54:04.420 I'm so sick
00:54:05.260 of dealing with those
00:54:06.100 I'll try not to curse
00:54:09.440 so much
00:54:09.920 you know
00:54:10.300 and the BS
00:54:11.320 that goes on
00:54:12.020 in these corporate things
00:54:12.940 and I've only aligned
00:54:13.800 myself with
00:54:14.600 you know
00:54:15.780 things that
00:54:16.460 Coors Light
00:54:17.220 I deal with them
00:54:18.040 I deal with Jim Beam
00:54:19.340 I deal with Harley Davidson
00:54:20.620 and Chevy Trucks
00:54:22.040 it's like
00:54:22.680 these are all things
00:54:23.460 that you know
00:54:23.920 I was involved in
00:54:24.740 but and still
00:54:25.540 even though I used
00:54:27.020 all those things
00:54:27.500 like dealing with
00:54:28.200 the corporate bullshit
00:54:29.340 I was like
00:54:30.820 yeah if I never see
00:54:31.620 that again
00:54:32.080 I could care less
00:54:33.260 and there's no amount
00:54:34.380 of money on the face
00:54:35.480 of this earth
00:54:36.400 because I've turned down
00:54:37.700 tons of it
00:54:38.780 that would ever
00:54:40.280 get me to be vocal
00:54:41.480 or be somebody
00:54:42.380 I'm not
00:54:42.920 and then people
00:54:43.860 would see somebody
00:54:45.160 different than who
00:54:45.900 I really am
00:54:46.720 I just gotta say
00:54:52.080 you make it sound easy
00:54:54.300 I know a lot of people
00:54:55.340 in your business
00:54:56.120 in the entertainment
00:54:56.780 business obviously
00:54:57.580 and they don't reach
00:54:59.940 the same conclusion
00:55:00.620 you did
00:55:01.080 actually
00:55:01.680 I think it's a harder
00:55:02.340 decision than you're
00:55:03.340 admitting
00:55:03.700 like I said
00:55:06.240 I had the money
00:55:06.800 in the bank
00:55:07.320 so it was
00:55:07.960 you know
00:55:09.080 a lot of people
00:55:09.560 don't want to mess
00:55:10.180 with their bottom line
00:55:11.120 a lot of people
00:55:12.100 anybody
00:55:13.020 this goes for anybody
00:55:13.880 they don't
00:55:14.440 you know
00:55:14.680 they're scared
00:55:15.060 of their social standing
00:55:16.180 you know
00:55:16.980 God forbid
00:55:17.520 mom drops off
00:55:18.360 the kids at school
00:55:19.040 with a MAGA hat on
00:55:20.140 you know what I mean
00:55:21.240 you're like
00:55:21.520 oh
00:55:22.220 you know
00:55:24.500 all of a sudden
00:55:25.620 you know
00:55:26.040 you're this
00:55:26.620 this polarizing
00:55:28.040 you know
00:55:28.320 divisive person
00:55:29.280 because you said
00:55:30.560 do I want to make
00:55:31.440 America great
00:55:32.720 again
00:55:33.300 I was like
00:55:34.320 how dare you
00:55:35.420 you know
00:55:38.100 it's just
00:55:38.480 people are scared
00:55:40.120 I'm
00:55:40.600 one thing
00:55:42.080 I've been a lot of things
00:55:43.220 one thing I've never
00:55:43.920 been is scared
00:55:44.560 that's for sure
00:55:45.440 amen
00:55:46.100 so has it
00:55:48.120 do you
00:55:48.440 do you think
00:55:50.660 it has cost you
00:55:51.540 no
00:55:53.820 I was planning
00:55:55.740 on it probably
00:55:56.560 you know
00:55:57.020 like hey
00:55:57.920 you have the potential
00:55:58.780 to give up a lot
00:55:59.680 and I'm like
00:56:00.240 I don't care
00:56:00.920 it's like whatever
00:56:02.680 this tells me
00:56:03.700 it's the right thing
00:56:04.320 to do
00:56:04.740 this is what
00:56:05.900 my Lord and Savior
00:56:06.700 Jesus Christ
00:56:07.440 tells me
00:56:07.920 is the right thing
00:56:08.440 to do
00:56:08.860 and I'm gonna
00:56:12.720 follow my heart
00:56:13.560 and
00:56:14.640 you know
00:56:16.480 it's crazy
00:56:16.940 because there's
00:56:17.320 some times
00:56:17.740 where it goes
00:56:18.100 like this
00:56:18.500 and it's
00:56:19.600 you know
00:56:20.320 it's very vocal
00:56:21.020 it'll last
00:56:21.400 however many years
00:56:22.240 and the last
00:56:23.000 full tour
00:56:23.440 I did
00:56:23.740 a few years ago
00:56:24.520 the only thing
00:56:26.380 I did to promote it
00:56:27.280 was the thing
00:56:27.940 I did with you
00:56:28.640 that was it
00:56:29.820 into one piece
00:56:30.780 of present
00:56:31.080 we sold out
00:56:31.800 every city
00:56:32.580 on that tour
00:56:33.860 and
00:56:36.460 you know
00:56:37.240 it just goes
00:56:37.680 to show you
00:56:38.240 if
00:56:38.480 if
00:56:38.860 if you speak
00:56:40.320 your truths
00:56:41.080 and I mean
00:56:42.120 they have to be
00:56:42.660 your truths
00:56:43.440 not something
00:56:45.040 you heard
00:56:45.480 not something
00:56:46.000 you're repeating
00:56:46.640 to get somewhere
00:56:47.460 to get to a certain
00:56:48.380 stature
00:56:48.860 but if it's
00:56:49.340 really your truths
00:56:50.280 you
00:56:50.940 your families
00:56:51.560 your friends
00:56:52.040 things you believe
00:56:52.740 in like
00:56:53.200 good things
00:56:54.100 will come
00:56:54.560 that is
00:56:57.160 where
00:56:58.120 I love
00:56:59.440 hearing you
00:57:00.400 say that
00:57:00.680 I think
00:57:00.880 it's true
00:57:01.280 where did
00:57:01.820 you learn
00:57:02.180 that

00:58:30.860 I feel
00:58:31.200 I have
00:58:31.420 to
00:58:31.540 I feel
00:58:32.000 I should
00:58:32.280 just tell
00:58:33.120 the people
00:58:33.520 of Michigan
00:58:34.040 that I
00:58:35.420 I said
00:58:35.920 for years
00:58:36.240 there's no
00:58:36.660 way I will
00:58:37.140 ever live
00:58:37.720 out of

00:58:50.940 another residence
00:58:51.720 but Michigan
00:58:52.340 I figured
00:58:52.940 you know
00:58:53.300 I'd die a
00:58:53.800 Michigan resident
00:58:54.480 that's just
00:58:55.040 the way it
00:58:56.020 was
00:58:56.360 and you know
00:58:57.240 have other
00:58:57.860 homes because
00:58:58.540 I've worked
00:58:59.040 hard and been
00:58:59.520 blessed
00:58:59.900 my son
00:59:02.360 you know
00:59:02.820 went to
00:59:03.280 school
00:59:03.600 I've raised
00:59:04.000 him in
00:59:04.220 Clarkston

00:59:06.780 St.
00:59:07.120 Mary's
00:59:07.620 and then
00:59:08.920 he went
00:59:09.560 to college
00:59:10.040 at a small
00:59:10.480 Christian school
00:59:11.180 called
00:59:11.480 Belmont
00:59:12.680 had my
00:59:14.760 granddaughter

00:59:15.780 college
00:59:16.200 with his
00:59:16.620 8th grade
00:59:17.000 sweetheart

01:02:48.640 freaking
01:02:49.160 weirdos
01:02:49.800 you know
01:02:50.700 these
01:02:51.540 far left
01:02:52.240 Marxist
01:02:53.300 borderline
01:02:54.140 communist
01:02:54.740 freak
01:02:55.400 socialist
01:02:56.060 weirdos
01:02:57.040 that creep
01:02:58.160 me out
01:02:58.740 are there
01:03:04.720 still
01:03:05.520 I mean
01:03:06.120 sincere
01:03:06.640 question
01:03:06.960 I don't
01:03:07.180 know the
01:03:07.420 answer
01:03:07.720 but there
01:03:08.120 used to
01:03:08.500 be
01:03:08.780 you know
01:03:09.180 for
01:03:09.400 generations
01:03:10.060 100
01:03:10.340 years
01:03:10.900 Union
01:03:11.580 Democrats
01:03:12.100 in the
01:03:12.960 state
01:03:13.120 of Michigan
01:03:13.560 who were
01:03:14.040 like
01:03:14.420 pro-America
01:03:15.900 hunters
01:03:16.380 fishermen
01:03:16.880 you know
01:03:17.980 masculine
01:03:18.540 men
01:03:18.960 for example
01:03:19.660 actually
01:03:21.500 and they
01:03:22.380 were Democrats
01:03:22.900 because that's
01:03:23.580 what the
01:03:23.780 UAW
01:03:24.140 did
01:03:24.680 do those
01:03:25.540 people still
01:03:25.920 exist
01:03:26.320 I mean
01:03:28.940 obviously
01:03:29.420 the lines
01:03:30.020 have been
01:03:30.340 blurred
01:03:30.720 big time
01:03:31.600 in a good
01:03:32.200 way
01:03:32.520 because they've
01:03:33.480 taken so
01:03:34.680 much for
01:03:35.060 granted
01:03:35.420 I mean
01:03:36.000 look at
01:03:36.440 Trump
01:03:36.780 had
01:03:37.220 minorities
01:03:37.880 you know
01:03:38.300 working
01:03:38.720 better wages
01:03:39.760 than anybody
01:03:40.620 else
01:03:41.140 and
01:03:41.500 and ever
01:03:42.880 in the
01:03:43.100 history
01:03:43.540 you know
01:03:44.120 what I
01:03:44.320 mean
01:03:44.540 and it's
01:03:44.900 like
01:03:45.180 and everyone's
01:03:45.640 like
01:03:45.760 that guy's
01:03:46.220 a racist
01:03:46.680 Nazi
01:03:47.160 you're
01:03:47.400 like
01:03:47.620 what are
01:03:48.460 you talking
01:03:48.780 about
01:03:49.120 you know
01:03:49.960 what I
01:03:50.080 mean
01:03:50.240 and you
01:03:50.920 know
01:03:51.120 I think
01:03:51.920 people get
01:03:52.400 complacent
01:03:53.020 they always
01:03:53.580 do
01:03:53.980 you know
01:03:55.040 at the top
01:03:55.540 of anything
01:03:56.020 and Democrats
01:03:56.640 clearly
01:03:57.160 I hate to
01:03:57.840 sound like
01:03:58.220 you know
01:03:58.460 broken record
01:03:59.420 repeating
01:03:59.900 talking points
01:04:00.640 we hear all
01:04:01.040 the time
01:04:01.380 on the news
01:04:01.960 but you know
01:04:02.480 they take the
01:04:03.220 black vote
01:04:03.780 for granted
01:04:04.260 they take the
01:04:04.840 union vote
01:04:05.400 for granted
01:04:05.920 you know
01:04:06.200 they just
01:04:06.560 you just
01:04:07.580 think these
01:04:08.120 are like
01:04:08.480 you don't
01:04:09.220 we don't have
01:04:09.620 to say
01:04:09.960 anything
01:04:10.280 these are
01:04:10.680 just you
01:04:10.980 know
01:04:11.060 we're pro
01:04:11.580 and we're
01:04:11.900 gonna like
01:04:12.260 you know
01:04:12.460 give you
01:04:12.800 money
01:04:13.040 it's you
01:04:13.420 know
01:04:13.480 the big
01:04:13.780 pork
01:04:14.100 thing
01:04:14.400 in DC
01:04:14.860 and
01:04:15.200 and
01:04:16.180 it's
01:04:16.920 yeah
01:04:19.320 when
01:04:21.480 when you hear
01:04:22.200 Kamala Harris
01:04:22.860 say that
01:04:23.660 if the government
01:04:25.520 knows you have a gun
01:04:26.420 they have the right
01:04:27.000 to barge into your
01:04:27.880 house
01:04:28.280 and inspect it
01:04:29.460 they can barge in
01:04:32.600 they're going out
01:04:33.160 in a body bag
01:04:34.040 last time
01:04:41.160 last time I checked
01:04:42.200 the second amendment
01:04:43.020 means something
01:04:43.800 yeah
01:04:44.480 and by the way
01:04:45.640 you know
01:04:47.300 it brings it to the
01:04:47.880 point of the first amendment
01:04:48.920 like how important
01:04:49.860 is that
01:04:50.420 and you know
01:04:51.460 what it is
01:04:51.840 you can't protect
01:04:52.740 the first amendment
01:04:53.680 without the second
01:04:54.720 so you don't think
01:04:58.620 barging in your house
01:04:59.580 and confiscating
01:05:00.360 your weapons
01:05:00.820 is common sense
01:05:01.540 gun reform
01:05:02.380 yeah
01:05:05.180 probably not
01:05:05.900 the problem
01:05:09.320 with the common sense
01:05:10.220 laws is like
01:05:10.820 I'm a common sense
01:05:11.660 person
01:05:12.040 like
01:05:12.300 I can talk
01:05:13.160 to some of my
01:05:13.820 calm left wing
01:05:14.840 friends
01:05:15.160 and they like
01:05:15.560 suggest these things
01:05:16.560 I'm like
01:05:17.340 okay that makes sense
01:05:19.160 right
01:05:19.680 you know
01:05:20.020 about being responsible
01:05:21.020 to lock your gun up
01:05:21.900 or keep it out
01:05:22.460 of the reach
01:05:22.800 of children
01:05:23.260 like I get it
01:05:24.060 absolutely
01:05:24.780 problem is
01:05:25.940 if they
01:05:26.220 implement that
01:05:27.980 into law
01:05:28.700 the way
01:05:29.220 I see it
01:05:29.800 these
01:05:30.860 these dumb shit
01:05:32.820 attorneys
01:05:33.260 that drop
01:05:33.960 all these bills
01:05:34.820 they'll flip
01:05:36.300 this wording
01:05:36.840 so freaking
01:05:37.600 bad around
01:05:38.140 that they'll
01:05:38.840 take advantage
01:05:39.560 of these laws
01:05:40.360 and it will
01:05:40.720 keep going
01:05:41.240 like this
01:05:41.840 and take
01:05:42.460 and take
01:05:43.100 and take
01:05:43.680 if we had
01:05:44.540 sensible people
01:05:45.540 everything would
01:05:47.040 be fine
01:05:47.580 but you know
01:05:49.040 you got people
01:05:49.580 that scam
01:05:50.120 on everything
01:05:50.700 they scam
01:05:51.280 on their
01:05:51.660 insurance
01:05:52.260 they scam
01:05:52.860 on this
01:05:53.240 it's the guy
01:05:53.840 that you know
01:05:54.500 when you're in line
01:05:55.280 to get off
01:05:55.920 and he comes around
01:05:57.020 it cuts right in
01:05:58.020 it's these people
01:05:58.860 you know
01:05:59.260 there's tons
01:06:00.060 of them everywhere
01:06:00.660 and they screw
01:06:01.160 everything up
01:06:01.640 for everybody
01:06:02.360 you know what I mean
01:06:03.340 so you just can't
01:06:04.060 have so many
01:06:04.860 just decent
01:06:06.000 common things
01:06:06.900 you know
01:06:07.140 in line
01:06:07.620 trust me
01:06:08.740 there's ways
01:06:09.260 to have fun
01:06:09.800 lots of fun
01:06:10.800 without being an idiot
01:06:11.980 name three

01:06:24.700 I did drugs
01:06:25.880 and I wasn't
01:06:26.360 an idiot
01:06:26.900 I mean
01:06:28.040 there's times
01:06:28.720 when I got
01:06:29.180 vocally like
01:06:30.160 oh maybe
01:06:30.740 I shouldn't
01:06:31.160 have said
01:06:31.480 that one
01:06:32.080 there have been
01:06:33.820 times
01:06:34.280 I've seen
01:06:34.700 the videos
01:06:35.300 there have been
01:06:35.660 quite a few
01:06:36.120 times
01:06:36.420 absolutely
01:06:37.000 I was like

01:06:39.400 drunk man's
01:06:40.080 words are
01:06:40.500 sober man's

01:06:41.540 when you were
01:06:45.060 on stage
01:06:45.700 I think it was
01:06:46.160 in your bar
01:06:46.600 attacking Hillary
01:06:47.400 Clinton
01:06:47.700 did you ever
01:06:48.120 think I could
01:06:48.660 wind up like
01:06:49.220 Gaddafi

01:06:53.880 confusing thing
01:06:54.640 I've ever
01:06:54.980 what was that
01:06:55.680 you could
01:06:58.260 I could wind up
01:06:58.860 like Jeffrey Epstein
01:06:59.580 like maybe
01:07:00.300 there are certain
01:07:00.780 people I shouldn't
01:07:01.440 criticize
01:07:01.840 because they
01:07:02.620 can hurt me
01:07:03.480 nah

01:07:11.860 there's no way
01:07:12.300 to live life

01:07:14.680 to live life
01:07:15.340 you know
01:07:15.740 looking over your
01:07:16.240 shoulder
01:07:16.460 scared about
01:07:17.060 what you said
01:07:17.740 you know
01:07:17.940 might offend
01:07:18.420 somebody
01:07:18.680 and they might
01:07:19.040 kill you
01:07:19.580 I mean
01:07:20.000 it reminds me
01:07:20.700 like when my
01:07:21.120 sister
01:07:21.460 you know
01:07:21.660 when I got
01:07:21.980 money

01:07:22.880 controls
01:07:23.280 a lot of
01:07:23.540 my business
01:07:23.940 stuff
01:07:24.200 was like
01:07:24.520 you have

01:07:34.340 jump on diving
01:07:34.960 boards
01:07:35.220 around a pool
01:07:35.680 someone might
01:07:36.220 crack their
01:07:36.640 head and if
01:07:36.920 they sue me
01:07:37.340 and take

01:07:54.320 a diving
01:07:54.680 board
01:07:54.920 it's a
01:07:55.220 vanishing
01:07:55.600 edge
01:07:55.880 pool
01:07:56.220 with no

01:07:58.120 mountain

01:09:34.180 a week
01:09:34.480 I'm on a
01:09:34.840 strict health
01:09:35.580 regimen
01:09:36.020 this that
01:09:36.500 and the
01:09:36.640 other
01:09:36.760 I took
01:09:37.140 my bad
01:09:37.680 habits
01:09:37.980 and I
01:09:38.200 replaced
01:09:38.700 those
01:09:39.080 with good
01:09:39.640 habits
01:09:40.100 and that's
01:09:41.220 really what
01:09:41.640 I did
01:09:42.020 amazing
01:09:43.320 do you know
01:09:46.520 do you know
01:09:46.540 other people
01:09:46.920 in your
01:09:47.100 business
01:09:47.380 who've done
01:09:47.740 that
01:09:47.900 who were
01:09:48.080 still around
01:09:48.620 like guys
01:09:49.100 you started
01:09:49.420 with

01:09:51.060 of them
01:09:51.340 yeah

01:09:53.940 a lot
01:09:55.860 of them
01:09:56.080 it was
01:09:56.400 well I think
01:09:57.860 Scott Stapp
01:09:58.520 changed his
01:09:59.060 life around
01:09:59.620 he was
01:10:00.920 pretty messed
01:10:01.840 up for a
01:10:02.520 while
01:10:02.700 trust me
01:10:03.440 and I hear
01:10:04.340 you know
01:10:04.740 Creed's back
01:10:05.260 doing great
01:10:05.740 stuff
01:10:06.160 um
01:10:06.800 I know
01:10:08.620 so
01:10:08.960 you know
01:10:09.820 it is possible
01:10:10.460 it's not a
01:10:10.960 story you hear
01:10:11.500 very often
01:10:12.120 a lot of
01:10:13.300 time it's
01:10:13.800 like you

01:10:17.960 hate
01:10:18.120 each other
01:10:18.620 and then
01:10:21.160 10 years
01:10:22.560 later

01:10:38.360 Inekama
01:10:38.860 Michigan

01:10:41.120 Inekama
01:10:42.780 Portage
01:10:43.800 Lake
01:10:44.180 and it's
01:10:45.420 like what
01:10:45.880 three or
01:10:46.360 four hour
01:10:46.640 drive
01:10:47.060 and we
01:10:47.680 had
01:10:47.820 we had
01:10:48.120 played this
01:10:48.440 game in
01:10:48.700 the car
01:10:48.900 where we
01:10:49.080 can only
01:10:49.520 listen to
01:10:49.980 music from
01:10:50.440 Michigan
01:10:50.780 you were
01:10:52.560 on there
01:10:53.180 must have
01:10:53.580 been an
01:10:53.880 awesome ride
01:10:54.680 it was
01:10:55.300 but that's
01:10:55.780 my question
01:10:56.440 okay
01:10:56.860 and I'm
01:10:58.960 not even
01:10:59.220 mentioning
01:10:59.480 Motown
01:11:00.060 like you
01:11:00.400 can just
01:11:00.660 go
01:11:00.920 I mean
01:11:01.240 you could
01:11:01.480 drive from
01:11:01.780 here to
01:11:02.060 Fairbanks
01:11:02.680 and just
01:11:03.040 listen to
01:11:03.380 Michigan
01:11:03.620 music
01:11:04.020 drive from
01:11:04.480 here to
01:11:04.800 China
01:11:05.280 put your
01:11:06.220 car in
01:11:06.560 so why
01:11:07.160 why has
01:11:07.900 this state
01:11:08.600 produced so
01:11:09.280 much good
01:11:09.620 music
01:11:10.040 well I think
01:11:10.800 it was you
01:11:11.180 know the
01:11:11.400 migration from
01:11:12.160 the south
01:11:12.820 you know and
01:11:14.840 and all the
01:11:17.040 everyone came to
01:11:17.960 work in the
01:11:18.440 industrial revolution
01:11:19.420 in the auto
01:11:20.000 industry
01:11:20.440 some people
01:11:21.460 stopped in
01:11:21.980 Chicago
01:11:22.420 that's where
01:11:22.820 you got like
01:11:23.200 the blues scene
01:11:23.860 that formed
01:11:24.320 and then other
01:11:24.960 people kept
01:11:25.440 going because
01:11:25.940 you could get
01:11:26.420 this wage
01:11:27.160 and you could
01:11:28.360 work and get
01:11:29.000 off at three
01:11:29.440 o'clock and
01:11:29.900 you could play
01:11:30.300 at the bars
01:11:30.800 at night
01:11:31.100 so the sadder
01:11:32.140 people stopped
01:11:32.860 in Chicago
01:11:33.480 whatever it
01:11:36.840 was back
01:11:37.340 then you know
01:11:37.780 people man we
01:11:38.620 can go work
01:11:39.240 up there and
01:11:39.660 make money and
01:11:40.260 be you know be
01:11:40.860 treated pretty
01:11:41.440 decently you know
01:11:42.220 even though it
01:11:42.680 was pretty horrible
01:11:43.480 in those factories
01:11:44.520 back then to a
01:11:45.440 lot of these
01:11:45.760 people coming from
01:11:46.400 the south after
01:11:47.620 this time you
01:11:48.480 know dark period
01:11:49.180 in our history
01:11:49.760 and they came up
01:11:51.380 here and you
01:11:51.900 know you get
01:11:52.300 off the planet
01:11:52.900 three o'clock or
01:11:53.620 whatever you go
01:11:54.240 play the bars you
01:11:55.360 know or vice
01:11:56.100 versa you get off
01:11:57.220 at a certain time
01:11:57.980 and that and you
01:11:58.820 had all this
01:11:59.600 melting pot of
01:12:00.560 people come from
01:12:01.380 everywhere to
01:12:02.860 come for this
01:12:03.340 industrial revolution
01:12:04.320 I think the
01:12:05.060 combination of
01:12:05.800 that you know
01:12:06.560 from and having
01:12:07.680 you know jazz
01:12:08.360 and blues here
01:12:09.160 everything you
01:12:09.760 know the oldest
01:12:10.140 jazz club is in
01:12:11.120 Detroit Baker's
01:12:13.100 Keyboard Lounge
01:12:13.840 thank you yes
01:12:14.600 Baker's Keyboard
01:12:15.360 Lounge and you
01:12:17.140 know John Lee
01:12:18.100 Hooker writing
01:12:18.640 those songs down
01:12:19.300 in Haston Street
01:12:20.160 oh mama had a
01:12:22.040 dream last night
01:12:23.000 and then it just
01:12:25.460 goes on and on
01:12:26.080 from there it's
01:12:26.600 prison of soul
01:12:27.200 music and Motown
01:12:28.300 and you know rock
01:12:29.020 and roll and house
01:12:30.260 music and you know
01:12:31.240 hip-hop and it
01:12:32.200 just you know it
01:12:33.080 hasn't stopped
01:12:33.720 you think you
01:12:35.200 think the leadership
01:12:35.860 of Michigan will
01:12:36.520 get better
01:12:36.940 I fucking hope
01:12:38.420 so
01:12:38.860 Jesus
01:12:40.600 Gretchen
01:12:42.000 Shitmer
01:12:42.560 so that's not an
01:12:45.580 endorsement
01:12:46.240 do you know anyone
01:12:48.120 who voted for
01:12:48.860 yeah
01:12:50.340 that was an
01:12:52.080 extended family
01:12:52.740 member
01:12:53.100 what did did
01:12:56.240 the extended family
01:12:56.940 member explain why
01:12:57.820 I don't know
01:13:00.400 but
01:13:00.740 oh man this is a
01:13:03.680 tough one to be
01:13:04.440 talking about family
01:13:05.320 but
01:13:05.640 that's like most
01:13:08.020 of these people are
01:13:08.640 like
01:13:09.020 divorced
01:13:10.240 overweight
01:13:12.240 pissed off at the
01:13:14.640 world
01:13:15.020 you know
01:13:16.680 angry at
01:13:17.480 every man alive
01:13:18.700 and
01:13:19.400 I've
01:13:20.440 my gut tells me
01:13:21.640 those are the
01:13:22.100 women that voted
01:13:22.700 for her
01:13:23.320 I think that's
01:13:25.860 probably the deepest
01:13:26.620 thing ever uttered
01:13:27.600 on this stage
01:13:28.280 and the truest
01:13:29.160 my personal
01:13:32.100 research on the
01:13:32.780 question confirms
01:13:33.520 what you just
01:13:34.000 said
01:13:34.280 so it would be
01:13:36.760 good to have a
01:13:37.260 happy governor
01:13:37.880 with happy voters
01:13:38.720 in a happy state
01:13:39.640 someone shouting
01:13:41.000 Kid Rock for
01:13:42.220 governor
01:13:42.560 would you run
01:13:43.400 for governor
01:13:43.880 of Michigan
01:13:44.340 what's that
01:13:44.980 that's actually
01:13:51.020 why I came
01:13:51.600 tonight was to
01:13:52.260 announce my
01:13:52.760 candidacy
01:13:53.440 you know
01:13:57.520 you
01:13:57.840 the funny thing
01:13:59.560 is you'd
01:14:00.000 probably win
01:14:00.920 and you'd
01:14:01.460 probably be
01:14:01.960 great
01:14:02.440 yeah that was
01:14:04.860 messed up when I
01:14:05.580 was doing that
01:14:06.100 little senate bit
01:14:06.980 by the way
01:14:07.360 Trump asked me
01:14:08.000 about that for
01:14:08.520 like three years
01:14:09.680 after it was
01:14:10.320 done and I
01:14:11.220 came out I was
01:14:11.740 like hey man I
01:14:12.240 was just screwing
01:14:12.720 around
01:14:13.000 and I was
01:14:15.240 winning like
01:14:16.260 actually my
01:14:17.040 brother saw
01:14:17.740 Debbie stabbing
01:14:18.620 out like
01:14:18.940 backstage at
01:14:19.680 one of my
01:14:20.100 shows I know
01:14:21.100 boo and
01:14:22.160 and she's
01:14:23.300 like and my
01:14:24.700 brother's like
01:14:25.140 what are you
01:14:25.480 doing here she's
01:14:26.040 like I just
01:14:26.720 wanted to thank
01:14:27.260 your brother he
01:14:27.880 raised me so
01:14:28.760 much money with
01:14:29.520 that little
01:14:29.860 senate stunt and
01:14:30.840 I'm like oh
01:14:31.420 shit I
01:14:33.020 know I
01:14:33.540 wasn't planning
01:14:34.060 on that I
01:14:34.880 backfired a
01:14:35.560 little bit
01:14:36.020 do you think
01:14:39.340 you'd have fun
01:14:39.820 doing it though
01:14:40.420 no I don't
01:14:42.180 think any
01:14:42.580 I don't
01:14:43.400 think anybody
01:14:44.140 should have
01:14:44.620 fun doing
01:14:45.180 it I'm
01:14:45.580 sick of
01:14:45.960 every politician
01:14:46.920 on every
01:14:47.500 side thinking
01:14:48.180 they're a
01:14:48.660 fucking
01:14:48.940 celebrity you
01:14:50.560 know what I
01:14:50.820 mean when
01:14:55.680 the celebrities
01:14:56.380 should really be
01:14:57.640 the people who
01:14:58.340 fight and die
01:14:58.980 for this country
01:14:59.720 who keep their
01:15:00.400 mouth shut and
01:15:01.080 do their job
01:15:01.900 go to work
01:15:02.720 every day and
01:15:04.100 then you got
01:15:04.560 these politicians
01:15:05.380 who are like well
01:15:06.280 I just got an
01:15:06.840 office and I
01:15:07.420 wrote a book and
01:15:08.180 you know I got a
01:15:08.820 job at Fox News
01:15:09.580 now and I'm on
01:15:10.300 CNN and I'm
01:15:11.200 over here and I
01:15:11.960 think I'm a big
01:15:12.460 deal want a
01:15:13.000 selfie with me
01:15:13.700 it's like you're
01:15:15.040 supposed to be
01:15:15.560 doing a service
01:15:16.400 to your country
01:15:17.240 and the reason we
01:15:19.160 can't get any
01:15:19.880 good people is
01:15:21.200 because it's like
01:15:22.120 when people say
01:15:22.700 about Trump
01:15:23.300 oh he said
01:15:23.920 grab him by the
01:15:24.600 pussy and like
01:15:25.280 this and it's like
01:15:26.020 whatever we're not
01:15:27.140 electing the deacon
01:15:27.960 of the church
01:15:28.560 all right you want
01:15:29.440 someone who's gonna
01:15:29.960 keep you safe
01:15:30.760 gonna lower your
01:15:31.460 taxes you know
01:15:32.880 what I mean it's
01:15:33.440 gonna protect you
01:15:34.260 and your family
01:15:34.840 values and and
01:15:38.800 there's nobody
01:15:39.480 in here cast
01:15:40.640 the first stone
01:15:41.460 you know he has
01:15:42.340 no sin you know
01:15:43.320 what I mean we
01:15:44.460 all got some dirt
01:15:45.260 somewhere you know
01:15:46.640 you run for office
01:15:47.500 and they're gonna
01:15:48.020 dig it up and
01:15:48.780 they're gonna drag
01:15:49.420 you through the
01:15:49.840 mud and punish
01:15:50.580 your family and
01:15:51.400 your friends and
01:15:51.940 who would want
01:15:52.540 that job we have
01:15:53.580 some of the
01:15:54.000 smartest people
01:15:54.700 these smartest
01:15:55.300 people in this
01:15:55.940 country that I
01:15:57.060 guarantee you
01:15:57.680 would give two
01:15:58.360 four six years
01:15:59.540 eight years of
01:16:00.940 their life to make
01:16:02.180 this a better place
01:16:03.040 to say like I've
01:16:03.860 been very successful
01:16:04.920 if I can sacrifice
01:16:06.800 which I think Trump
01:16:07.900 has done didn't
01:16:09.540 take a paycheck
01:16:10.280 when he's in
01:16:10.900 office he's a
01:16:11.920 freaking billionaire
01:16:12.720 he's got a hot
01:16:13.800 wife he's got real
01:16:15.020 estate all over
01:16:15.680 the world and
01:16:16.780 he's like no let
01:16:17.740 me run for
01:16:18.080 president somebody
01:16:18.740 take a shot at
01:16:19.680 me you know I
01:16:20.620 mean try and kill
01:16:21.380 me because I want
01:16:22.160 to help this
01:16:22.720 country out I
01:16:24.280 mean if that's
01:16:24.740 not conviction I
01:16:25.620 don't know what
01:16:26.080 is
01:16:26.520 you know that
01:16:36.420 that was pretty
01:16:38.100 close I would
01:16:38.860 say
01:16:39.300 just drinking beer
01:16:44.940 on a Friday
01:16:45.560 night with Tucker
01:16:46.520 and some friends
01:16:47.320 I know you've
01:16:52.600 talked to him in
01:16:53.220 the last month
01:16:53.900 that didn't even
01:16:54.860 if someone shot
01:16:56.200 me in the face
01:16:56.880 it would give me
01:16:57.500 pause I must say
01:16:58.600 he didn't even
01:17:00.140 seem to slow
01:17:01.260 down
01:17:01.420 no I think he
01:17:02.920 said that the
01:17:03.520 other night on
01:17:04.020 Gutfeld which I
01:17:04.780 thought was great
01:17:05.580 I actually told
01:17:07.800 him I actually
01:17:08.780 told him I said

01:17:10.280 that's that's
01:17:10.920 setting with
01:17:12.460 several people

01:17:16.640 like a diamond
01:17:17.240 you know what I
01:17:17.840 mean it's just

01:17:24.080 you don't know
01:17:24.380 what Trump's
01:17:24.860 policies are right
01:17:25.700 now you must
01:17:26.200 live in a
01:17:26.600 freaking cave
01:17:27.280 you know what I
01:17:28.180 mean we
01:17:28.960 understand what he

01:20:30.800 issue would you say

01:20:40.580 sticker on it you get a
01:20:41.960 piece of fruit you're like
01:20:42.820 you wash your fruit you're
01:20:43.900 like oh fuck somebody put a
01:20:45.260 sticker on this thing
01:20:46.240 but that's never brought up
01:20:50.020 in a single presidential
01:20:51.000 debate and I'm wondering
01:20:52.020 why well if you'd like to
01:20:55.380 see you know how it really
01:20:57.860 goes I should moderate a
01:20:59.600 debate
01:20:59.980 I mean can you imagine
01:21:06.880 if we just talked like
01:21:08.120 everyday people and I
01:21:09.820 know everyday people don't
01:21:10.960 all use curse words but I
01:21:12.260 mean my mom says the F
01:21:13.680 word at this point like you
01:21:15.780 know what I mean and that
01:21:16.440 was a word if you said at
01:21:17.500 my house growing up you
01:21:18.700 were running out because if
01:21:20.400 not you were touching your
01:21:21.780 toes and getting the paddle
01:21:22.860 you know if you if you could
01:21:25.420 just sit there you're like
01:21:26.380 that's horse shit like what
01:21:29.040 are you talking about like
01:21:30.340 this is clearly stated right
01:21:31.940 here like you're gonna
01:21:32.920 answer the question or not
01:21:33.980 if you're not gonna answer
01:21:34.620 it just say no well I feel
01:21:36.840 you know the world needs a
01:21:37.920 new vibe that's not the
01:21:39.140 question
01:21:39.480 would you offer to moderate
01:21:45.140 the next debate between
01:21:46.240 Kamala Harris and Donald
01:21:47.160 Trump
01:21:47.380 absolutely
01:21:48.500 could could we do it at the
01:21:54.140 I wouldn't exactly call it
01:21:55.580 moderating we might have to
01:21:57.440 come up with a new word more
01:21:59.120 be like referee
01:22:00.300 Trump would do that in a
01:22:03.940 second he does any of that in
01:22:06.500 a second this guy goes I've
01:22:09.260 seen him in Detroit and black
01:22:10.620 churches I've seen him in the
01:22:11.760 South Bronx I've seen him you
01:22:13.440 know in different neighborhoods

01:22:19.280 Detroit to meet him last time he
01:22:20.660 was here like guys who are
01:22:22.060 real prominent in the city like
01:22:23.680 kind of grew up gangster hip-hop
