By the way, what happened with you and the Andrew Callahan guy from Channel 5?
00:00:16.180
He's a liberal who I would say a, how would you put it, Rob?
00:00:27.280
I think he has some libertarian tendencies in him, but I do think he's part of the left.
00:00:35.500
I liked Andrew until he did what he did with the interview.
00:00:38.640
So that interview I did with him, it was 72 hours after the video had gone mega viral.
00:00:44.140
And I had only slept for like six hours those past three days.
00:00:48.000
And I let him come do an interview with me at like 11 p.m. at night.
00:00:53.300
um i had just drank an energy drink and uh just had like a steak right before because i was at my
00:00:59.040
we did it at my friend's man cave and so i was like super accommodating i was like oh this will
00:01:02.580
be good uh with to do with andrew like i had a lot of respect for him i used to watch him a lot
00:01:06.660
and then i do this interview with him and i i knew right off the get-go like where he was taking it
00:01:13.980
because he started at instead of asking me all the fraud he asked like you think this was a
00:01:17.280
distraction from epstein like i was like okay well i know exactly what this is going to be about
00:01:22.260
because it had nothing to do with that so i knew he was kind of trying to do this kind of like
00:01:27.140
smear thing on me which i thought was super disingenuous on his part because i was super
00:01:31.780
accommodating him did this interview thought we were good friends and then he goes and does that
00:01:35.940
it was not my best interview by any means but i also wasn't in the best state of like mind and
00:01:41.540
like physically like i hadn't slept i hadn't been eating because i was like running off pure
00:01:46.920
adrenaline so you guys went from 11 to 130 yeah it was like a two and a half hour interview yeah
00:01:51.980
and then he posts the interview and he only posts an hour of the interview how long was the total
00:01:57.440
interview two and a half hours okay so he cut out an hour and a half of it in any response where he
00:02:01.560
had that he was wrong or made him look bad he didn't he didn't show but did you record a whole
00:02:08.300
interview i recorded the whole interview got it so to two and a half hour interview becomes an
00:02:13.620
hour and a half and you're recording the whole thing so you can show a couple parts that he cut
00:02:17.920
out that maybe made him look bad yeah and like the clips he used too very deceptive editing on
00:02:26.640
andrew's part and yeah he like cut out spot he like literally jump cut spots when he admitted
00:02:33.220
to being wrong or not knowing about that and like one of his claims like well nick said uh 89 of the
00:02:38.780
fraud like so many times i'm like yeah because you weren't getting the point that the fraud had
00:02:42.940
been committed 89 of the fraud had been committed by somalian yeah and so he obviously came with
00:02:47.700
this agenda and when you sit down in an interview because they're pitching as a like a podcast
00:02:52.240
interview like let's do it for his channel called uh uh like c5 channel five yeah yeah he has like
00:02:58.660
a five cast he has a whole show called like five cast so we did this interview i was like oh cool
00:03:02.580
just be like uh interview where we just chat but no he just cut it all up so you know what i love
00:03:09.180
the most let me tell you what i love the most i love the fact that guys like him exist and guys
00:03:14.400
like you exist so I think both is necessary he's going to go tell his side of the story and you're
00:03:19.600
going to go out there and tell your side of the story the part with you that is so attractive
00:03:24.940
is you're sincere and genuine is who you are and I think the market knows that so that is a little
00:03:32.180
bit scary when you are sincere and genuine because you're curious going out there the way you ask the
00:03:37.100
question you're very respectful you've been raised the right way and uh you're just getting started
00:03:42.100
then I think it's, you know, we need more and more people like you that are doing what they're
00:03:46.360
doing. I'm Nick Shirley, and you guys can find me here on the neck. Go ahead and ask me any
00:03:50.480
questions, whether it be about politics, about what I believe or where I think the future of
00:03:54.300
