• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Dude. That freeze, that freeze that they did at the
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: beginning of the week, I had a check waiting for
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: me for ten thousand. I did a bunch of work
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: for the Feds. It was a federal program that I did.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I did a bunch of work, it got done. I
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: did all my I did everything I was supposed to do,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: and then they put that freeze on it and tried
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: to tell me, oh, sorry, I can't pay you the
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars right now because we want to make sure.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh hell oh. And Governor Scott, actually
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Governor Scott's office got involved because I was a local contract.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: I was like, I can't not get paid the ten
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars that I've already put out there for the
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: federal government and so the state, and they took it
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: out of their own fund and paid me this week.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I guess a lot of people
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: didn't understand that those grants were tied to individual payments,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: even though they said they weren't. Oh my god, I
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: can't believe a politician lied to us. Who would have funk. Yeah,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: let's see, I got it now.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: No word yet of any kind of immigration enforcement happening
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: here in Vermont. We're rounding up criminals, right We're going
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: to be watching what's going to be happening.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Isn't that what Ice is doing right now? They're rounding
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: up criminals.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: We're going to be watching what happens here and from
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: out at our local farms and whatnot. We'll be paying
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: attention to the news. But as of now, no immigration
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: enforcement has has happened yet in the state of Vermont.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Probably don't know where the fuck it is. Did you
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: hear about there it is again? Another dollar in there?
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Did you hear about gipmo that we're we're sending thirty
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: thousand illegal immigrants to Guantanamo Bay. I was talking about
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: this yesterday with Gee.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Are they going to rename it? Auschwitz next.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know. The storage incredible, but that doesn't cost
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: tax payers nothing.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: So my I guess I don't understand. I thought we
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: wanted to get criminals out of our country, and they've
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: deported what thirty five hundred people this week. That's a
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: huge number. There's eleven million illegal immigrants. Yeah, it would
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: take them, I think they said twenty eight years at
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: this pace to get them out of our country. Even
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: just to find them and get them out of here.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: It's ninety six billion dollars in tax revenue that we
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: get from them people. But you know, did you know
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: that there's did I look this up the other day
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: because I was like, wow, you know, that's that's a
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: good idea. We shouldn't have criminals in here. So the
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: first place I would look for these criminals is the
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: thirty thousand illegal immigrants that we're housing in our federal
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: prison alone. Not one of them have been deported. We're
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: paying to house them, We're actually paying the fucking how's
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: it there? It is? Again? How's and feed them people?
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: Why weren't those the first people put on a plane
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: and sent back to their country? So it's not is
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: it really about? Is it really about criminal illegals.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: You know, G had a great point yesterday. You know
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: he's he's basically.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Let me let me say this though I I am
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: a bit more biased towards them, and I admit that
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I used to live with those people in Central America.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: I have a different perspective of those people, right. I
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: don't go by what Donald Trump calls those people. I
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: go by what my own personal experience of living with
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: these people.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: This is a it's it's a really really sensitive topic,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: very controversial, as I think doesn't need to be. We
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: all know, because you know G's point yesterday is that
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: scumbags come in all shapes and colors and ethnicity and
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: right documented or undocumented.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: But if they're a US citizen we have to deal
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: with in pieces of shit.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: There are And that was his point yesterday, is that
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: there are so many US citizens who are pieces of shit.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: I think we can find just cound on immigration.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Just because you're an illegal immigrant doesn't mean that you're
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: as comeback.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Nope, That's where I said. My perspective is different. God,
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: I've seen what these people are trying to escape from.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: I've seen the people trying to escape. You think a
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: you think a drug dealer. Okay, when I was in
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Central America, Pablo Escobar had so much fucking money. I
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: mean that guy was buying submarines, bringing cocaine up through
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: our rivers and stuff. You think they're gonna chance loading
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: a bunch of drugs and everything else to come through
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: the Dariens Pass and hope that a kilo makes it here,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: when in fact they can bribe customs agents. They could
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: come in through ships. Louck. I mean terrorists just by
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: plane tickets and temporary visas. They just pull an elon
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Musk they overstay their visas or Malani. We have a
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: those people were okay to overstay their visas. We're not
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: talking about them people though, right, We're only talking about
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the brown people that overstay. Right, We're not really talking
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: about the Europeans that are overstaying. Hey, my heart's with you.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: A drug bust in Bethel last night, nine people, most
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: of which were Vermonors and middle aged Vermonors, cocaine, fentanyl,

  Speaker 2: Was it a thirty nine millimeter or a forty milimeter?
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Well that that makes a huge difference because a thirty
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: nine millimeter only launches smoke, bird bang stuff like that.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: You have to be forty millimeter in order for it
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: to be an h high tide. I don't know, man,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I think that's just kind of a
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: scare tactic because to get your hands on a forty
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: millimeter tube grenade launcher, No, it's it's not that easy,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Let's see, we have a guy named Chris Harper from Burlington,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: thirty seven years old. He's been missing since November. They're
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: on the search for him. I think his last known
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: whereabouts was in the Johnson or Jeffersonville area. That's in
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: the news today. We had a huge snowmobill crash in
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Morgan last night up in the Northeast Kingdom.

  Speaker 2: Man, I remember growing up them, so I had friends
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: of mine that lost. I remember specifically he was a
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: good friend of mine and him and his sister and
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: losing his father in a snow machine. Actually really Christmas
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Eve Rick cat Rick Choquet from the Rick. Yeah, his
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: dad died on Christmas Eve when we were kids, on
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: his horror and he was there. He was there when
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: it happened. He tried to save his dad's life.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: I didn't know any of that.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a horrible situation for them growing up.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Well, this guy was taken to North Country Hospital and
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: then immediately flown to UVM with real, real serious injuries. Obviously,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: if you're flying, you got some.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: It's wild because I drive a motorcycle like a fucking maniac,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: but snow machines scare the shit out.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I can relate to that. Homeland Security Secretary
• 19:55

• 20:01
  Speaker 1: o'clock yesterday afternoon up here to I guess discuss the
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: shooting of the US Customs in border agent. Yeah, that
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: was pretty sad, David Miland I guess you know, there's
• 20:17

• 20:22

  Speaker 2: I like that. I like it. I like it too. Man.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: It reminds me of the the food lines, the breadlines
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: to get your government cheese. I'll never forget them days.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Good times. Good did you?
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: And and if I've got to, of course I'm going
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: to read some comments here and and of course I'm
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: going to get into some other things. But I just
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: have to ask you, did you did you see Senator Schumer,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: you laughed.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I want to talk about these idiots. There's a reason
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: why they have a twenty one approval.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Senator Schumer said that people are aroused by Trump's policies.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Aroused. You don't believe me, do you know what? Honestly, honestly,
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: I think he's right. I have one. Have you seen
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: some of the people defending him. They are absolutely aroused.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: I believe they touched themselves every time he speaks.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Go to your local official, your local congressman, or your
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: local senator, and have them get to the president. But
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: the roots of democracy are deep. People are aroused. I
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: haven't seen people so aroused in a very very long
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: time in terms of going since I'm going to keep
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: at it, people are aroused. I haven't seen people so
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: aroused in a very very long time in terms of
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: going trying to get this done. So yes, I think
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: democracy will have an effect, and we are going to
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: keep at it.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Go to your local.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Official, your local congressman, your local center, and have them
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: get to the president. But the roots of democracy are
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: I wonder if they.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Know people are a Are you aroused not because of
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: his speech?
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, just Honestly.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know how anybody takes any of these guys seriously.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: I know, man, I know.

• 24:21
  Speaker 2: my family business, everything about there, Their whole family is intertwined.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: I like, I idolize those people as my own construction car.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: I'm a first generation. They're like second generation, so I'm
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: first generation. I've always idolized those people. Victor has done.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: So much since his seventies.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, that's just such hard. Like when everybody else,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: those guys were grinding, working seven days a week, no
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: matter what the season, no matter what the season was.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: They are living proof that hard work pays off. There's
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: no there's no way around.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: They're out there setting homes in in snow and rain
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: and no matter what.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they keep the cost down, you know, they
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: you can, you can get a modular home for a
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: lesser price so that people can afford to buy them
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: in their finance programs. That finance really helped their business
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: a ton, because you never used to be able to
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: get a finance on a on a manufactured home where
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: we used to call mobile homes. You could never get
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: any type of financing it. But those mobile homes are.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: They're making it so people can own a home, you.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: Know, and not have a huge home that they're struggling
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: to heat too. You know, you get something that's the
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: right size for what you got. I mean, if it's
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: just you and your wife and the dog. You know,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: people are going smaller now.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: I'm in construction. I've been in construction my whole life,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: and I have nothing bad to say about them people.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: I think there's some of the greatest people around here.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: People at business owners construction guys could learn a ton
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: from them guys, And you know how they made their business.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: That's my whole business model and family is based on them,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: believe it or not, because their whole everything there there.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I don't want to say their compound, but they they
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: took advantage. They they they used the property that they
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: own to to build for their own family, Their families lived.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: What a passionate about. Yeah, dude, they've kept their family together.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: And by keeping their family together, they sent each one
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: of their kids to college to learn a certain part
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: of their business. Yeah, and it's boomed their business.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Brilliant.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, dude.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Charylyn and I were just over there a couple of
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: saturdays ago, walking walking through some of the modular homes.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: They're gorgeous.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah, I mean I because yeah, I don't.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: I just honestly do not walk through those anymore because
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: they can basically get anybody financed, yes, and I end up.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: It's the same reason I don't walk into Wilkins anymore,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: because I always end up with a brand new Hireley
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: every time I leave there.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, right.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I haven't been down to Wilkins at over a year
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: because the last time I was down there cost me
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: sixty grand.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Listen, I want to read something from a business owner,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: a business owner right here in Barry that I saw.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I saw it yesterday and I'm like, I just got
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: to read this on the air. I mean, this is
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: this sums it up right here? Are you ready?
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you who it is after I read it.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: It says my heart goes out to the people who
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: lost loved ones in the horrible plane crash. It literally
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: makes me sick.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you about that.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I have also seen some friends on Facebook today that
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: are grieving the loss of a friend from right here
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: in our backyard in an unrelated incident. I'm sorry for
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: your loss and that you are hurting too. I genuinely
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: wish that we could all take a minute to realize
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: why we are friends here in the first place, and
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: recognize that life is just too short. Lastly, I understand
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: the last several years of our lives have been difficult,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: with global pandemics, floods, losses, and chaotic politics. I have
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: never seen more hatred than I have in the last
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: in the last couple of years, and regardless of your
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: political position, I can wrap my head around how we
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: make it look like it's each other's fault. I have
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: said it a million times over the years. There are
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: no art. There are so many positive things that we
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: can be doing right here in our own communities, things,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: things we can actually accomplish and see the results. I know,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: as far as me, I can believe this is the
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: same I can't believe this is the same city I
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: grew up in. It's entirely different. A lot of great
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: things have happened and are happening. But it used to
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: be just so kind and so safe. What it's used
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: to be. What it's so easy to be helpful, kind
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: and thoughtful. It's obviously your right to say what you
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: want to say here, but I encourage you to recognize
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: most of the stuff is just not helping anyone. It's
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: just hurtful and it causes angst. Signed Rich mcsheffery.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: I got no comment. I got no fucking comment. Okay,
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I don't want to know what I really think.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Well, you've known Rich for a long time.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: I have.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: I'm that okay. So first of all, that Rich is
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: a little bit younger than I. That resonated with me. Bro.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: There was a time in Berry City we weren't even
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: allowed to walk down fucking Berry City. There were stabbings
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: there used to be a little arcade right underneath Planet
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Rock out there. It's now a strip club. There was
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: stabbings out there. There was people that got murdered at
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: the school. Bizarre. I mean, we have never What is
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: our leadership doing to bring us together. You can do
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: these posts and everything else, but when you have from
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: the top down dividing us, you can make all them
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: posts all you want, but it doesn't it's not resonating.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: We've never been nice to each other in Berry City.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know where that comes from. That has never
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: been Remember Richie, Remember when we used to have like
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: fights among schools, Remember the fights at the school. What
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: has changed is the drug problem, the violence problem. It's
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: now no longer fist to cuffs. I remember getting my
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: ass beat right on main Street because they had all
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: those people sitting on welfare wall. Remember that, Yeah, I
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: remember them things growing up. I don't know, man, I
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: don't know. I think now everybody wants to well, let's
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: just be peaceful, and said we have not been peaceful
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: for eight years to our neighbors. We haven't. We've said
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: the most vile things. Our leaders have said the most
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: vile things. It is now if you're not on their side,
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: you're the enemy. Where does this come? At? What point?
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: We can't do it? We can't do it from the
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: bottom up. Has nobody realized that you can say anything
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: you want but the bottom. We are at the bottom.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: We have no power. Those people that are spending billions
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: of dollars to be on the television every single day
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: to pick on the people that lost the that lost
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: an election, to pick on the people that don't support them,
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: seventy three million people. How do you do that? You
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: can make every you can make all these posts, but
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: the reality is we don't have leaders bringing us together.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: There's not one leader in our community. There's not one
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: leader nationally that's asking to bring us together. They're all
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: wanting to win the fight, and the people that are
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: gonna pay the price of that winning is us. Basically,
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: they want to shut the losers up. Shut the fuck up, loser,
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: it's my way. Now have we not seen this for
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: like a week? It's I wan too fucking bad? Wait,
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: what happened to the days we're knowing? What happened to that? Like, Hey,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: where's the Abraham Lincoln? Where are these guys bringing people together?
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: Did you know in Germany right now they're having protests
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: of over fifty There was one hundred thousand people yesterday
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: protesting for America, protesting for US around Europe. They are
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: fucking protesting for US, for our human rights, just for decency.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: We don't have it. There's no decency. We are now empowered,
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: We are now empowered to do pace the shit things.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: We have a president that just released fifteen hundred domestic
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: terrorists and then took the security away from every single
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: person they're hunting. And then you want to talk about decency. Wow,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: that wound me out, man. I think.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: That bothers me. I think we lost all human decency.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: I think rich is at least my takeaway from it.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: And again that when I saw that last night, restonated
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: with me.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I think his point is to take a deep breath
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: before you become a keyboard pirate and start spewing off
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: all this.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, I've had to get away from I find myself.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: I get really really And that's a lot. That's a
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: thing that we'll talk about later is about you know,
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: mental health, trauma and sit and emotional responses. And that's
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: the thing that's how our politics are being run right
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: now is through emotional response. That's it. It's not about policy,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: it's not about anything. It's about getting that emotional response
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: to keep you fucking divided. Can you imagine if we
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: had a leader that said, hey, wait a minute, let's
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: sit down with the left and the right and come
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: up with a plan. I want to fill my cabinet
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: with both. I still don't even think that'll work. By
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: this point, we're down to two parties.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Becky is saying that you're obviously quite aroused right now.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: G says, it's all about the politician's ego and their opinion,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: not about their constituents.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: How does a billionaire relate to me that's never had
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: to struggle? How do you come up with policy? You
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: now have an entire Our entire cabinet is full of
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: just un full of billionaires that are going to tell
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: me how to live my life that they've never struggled before.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: What do you think about this comment from G saying
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: politicians are causing mental health through making people depressed and
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: worried in unsafe Yep, the chaos, I believe that.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Constant says.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: And money. We don't have the money to fight these
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: people anymore. Elon Musk spent two hundred and seventeen million
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: dollars to get Donald Trump elected. He made two hundred
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: and seventeen billion the day he was elected, peddling influence
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: that man so that he can he can absolutely influence.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: He has so much money to influence elections all over
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: the world. He's in Germany right now trying to influence.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: It's the alt right in Germany. They're starting. They want
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: to prosecute him in Germany because of his influence in
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: the elections, and we allow it. We allow it. You
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: know why we allow it because it's that's our team,
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: that's our side. We don't care as long as it's
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: our side, our team. We don't care about egg prices
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: that are not going down right now. We don't care
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: about grocery prices because our team's in charge now, So
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: it does none of That's all the stuff that mattered
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: before the election. Now notice it no longer matters. It
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: just doesn't. Our team won, so those things are no
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: longer relevant. Instead, the Gulf of America is relevant, Invading
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: Greenland is relevant. Taking over the Panama Canal because you
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: owe taxes to Panama is relevant. That's gonna help. How
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: is any of that helping the average American? Going and
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: ripping kids out of schools? And instead of taking the
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: illegal immigrants, the thirty thousand illegal immigrants in our federal
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: prisons that we're paying for every day in a private prison. Oh,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: I know we make money off those private prisons, don't we.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Why would we send those people back? We're making money
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: off of them. I don't know, man, Like I said,
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: and I really do. And I one admit I have
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: a skewed view of those people. I have a biased
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: view of those people because I have a certain compassion
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: and I have a certain humanity that I feel towards
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: those people, living with them and seeing what they went
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: through and fighting alongside of them. I just I have
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: a difference. So one percent, please, I am biased.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Uh And this is based on your my own personal
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: experience watching those people die in those kinds in the military.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, bro, I can remember being I can where uh
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: El Salvador, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras. I've been to Bogada, Columbia.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: I've been to so many of these Southern and South
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: American countries. And if you ever saw the way these
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: people live in these mud huts. Things have gotten better
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: things It's been a long time. Things have gotten better
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: for them, but compared to what we have here. And
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: they are some of the hardest work in motherfuckers you've
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: ever met. They really are you, You and I. They
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: just want for their family.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: We had a conversation the other day. I was suddenly
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: talking about all of this and you called in. We
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: were talking about affordable housing here and you called in
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: and you had some really.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: So the thing is, I'm not an expert in any field,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: but all I can go by is my own perspective.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: That's all we all can go by is our own
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: perspec at inexperience.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Are you entitled to your own perspective? I'man.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: I mean I'm entitled to it, of course. But I
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: think what lacks in conversation between people is not is
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: the inability to view another perspective. So you can have
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: an argument. I can have an argument. I can say
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: this is why I feel this way because of this perspective.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: But also I have the ability to have empathy and
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: realize somebody else and just try to put myself in
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: somebody else's shoes. We say this all the time, but
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: we never do walk a mile in my shoes. We
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: say this, we say this to our kids, but we
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: ignore it as adults. Do we really ever try to
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: understand somebody else's perspective? Like you know what, like the
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: whole BLM thing back in the day, This will really
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: get people. But I wanted to try to understand that
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: sot that that side of it. Why there was so
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: many people that were so upset, Why what was going on?
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Why people were raging in the streets over their civil rights?
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I think if more people could sit
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: down and just try to understand another the opposite side
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: of the perspective, Yeah, I think that's what really is.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: I think, and I don't want to speak for Rich mccheffrey,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: but I think the sentiment behind his post was that
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: we need to spend more time listening to each other.
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we have to try to understand each other, but
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: that has to start at the top. And it's not
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: Rich can can do that post. But and you can
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: say that, but it's not happening. He has a limited audience.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: When you have guys spending two hundred million dollars to
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: be on fucking TV, how do you compete with that?
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: I understand. I understand.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: It's a basic propaganda.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: Rich is also saying that it has to start at
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: a you say, it has to start at the stop
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: at the top. He's saying in the meanwhile, let's just
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: all just try really.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: Are beyond that, dude. I don't know, man, And I
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: know why he's saying that, because he won. His side won,
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: and that's what it is. Now they want now there.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: Now there's a few of them that they're like, oh,
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: that's all peace and love. No, you can't fucking do that.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: You've been telling us for four years, just the most violent,
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: hateful ship.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: Speaking of both sides. Yeah, and speaking of of you know,
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: we're trying to put out a message here of of
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: of positivity and most importantly connectivity, listening to each other,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: being kind, yep, being respectful. And and with that said,
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: why you know, I would love to invite John on
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: the air because I don't know what this is. John
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: Anderson saying he just posted a comment saying, soak soak
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: it up. Rex Tampon Thompson, you buy ads.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: He doesn't, So we'll talk. John has some serious mental issues. Uh,
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: something's going on with him, and I don't I really
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: I troll him a little bit, and I should absolutely
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: stop with that. That's my own five. I brought that on.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: I heard a quote there not too long ago, and
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: it made fucking sense. Never offend a coward, be a man.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: If you offend a man, most of the time they'll
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: stand up to you, or they'll say something. A coward
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: will not. A coward will not come to you face
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: to face. A coward will do anything to win, so
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: you always have to watch your back. A coward'll stab you.
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: A coward will cause violence, a man won't. A righteous
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: person won't. So be careful when you offend a coward
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: because that's what it turns into. What it turns into
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: is stopping comments on a page so you can get
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: your side of it out. They're relentless with this. They don't.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: Just don't offend a coward. It's not worth it that
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: you could lose your life offending a coward because they're
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: a coward. John strikes me as a person like a coward.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: And I hate to say that because and I don't
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: even know. I don't know because I don't know the guy,
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: I really really don't, but he's obsessed with me, and
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: I get it. Whatever. It's usually the ladies. But yeah, yeah.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that's all about.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: I don't, you know, honestly, I don't. I made a
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: comment because.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, we were you know, is is this?
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Is this a joke that that he wants to go
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: hand in hand with you?
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: I viewed it as a joke. I don't believe he does.
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: I think he has some serious mental issues, got it.
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: I would break him in two. That's why I don't
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: entertain his ship. If he ever showed up, you know,
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: one percent, I would, I wouldn't violently hurt that little man.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: I we could put gloves on and have a controlled session.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: I'd like to No, no, we could put gloves on
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: because he's not a grappler. I'm a grappler. I grapple,
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: So I would go. He's supposedly a ninja or something
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: from what he said there. So, I mean, I don't know.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: But anyway, he's a little man. I don't. So I've
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: had to start viewing these people the same way. Somebody
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: asked me this the other day. There was a big
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: thing and it was going on, and they said, this
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: man respected me, and you're a man. So if you're
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: gonna disrespect me, You're gonna you have to face the consequences,
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: which are getting beat up. My problem is there's a
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: lot of people I could beat up just to win
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: an argument. Did I really win the argument? My eye?
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: So I've started viewing them the same way that I
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: would view like my three year old toddler niece. She
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: could say off the wall, wild fucking things to me,
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: and am I gonna beat her up? Absolutely not. My
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: wife can say shit to me, Do I beat her up? No?
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: John saying you're the one starting ship with me, You're
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: you're the one threatening to come to my house.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: I'd never threatened to go to his work to beat him.
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: I'd have never met the guy he wanted to do.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: That was a joke, though. Yeah, he's a clown, dude,
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: he's been a clown. He's on there.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: He's on as if you're gonna as if you're gonna
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: go to someone's business and beat them up.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: That's not the kind of game, you know what. I fight.
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: I either fight in gym, I fight in the cage,
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: or I will or I would defend myself some little
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: one hundred pound clown online. Absolutely not. I view him
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: the same as my three year old toddler niece. He
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: means nothing to me. He can't do anything about it.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: What if it's John and I both taking you on?
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Do I have one arm tie behind my back or both?
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: I think both of you together don't weigh as much
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: as I do. I mean, but really, really, I I
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: don't want to entertaining that because I honestly feel he
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: has mental issues. And I think at this point it's
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: just I'm now being a douchebag by contributing to that.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: At first I thought it was funny, but now I
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: really think he has serious mental issues because he did
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: a big post claiming that he's this big coder and
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: he knows so much about this and and so I
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: took that post in that picture, and I sent it
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: to a friend of mine, and my friend, who used
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: to be a real coder, got hired by the NSA
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: and he works for them, and he he does things
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: for them for computers. And he looked at that in
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: his exact words were John Anderson's delusional. So it was
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: at that point I realized he had some real mental issues.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: And I just as a man, we deal with a
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: lot of mental issues on our own. And I have
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: mental issues. I have. I have issues that I deal
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: with myself.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: But who who honestly, who doesn't? I mean, who doesn't?
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: And I just I don't want to talk about mental
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: issues and then troll a guy that has mental issues,
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. That's that's kind of like
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: piece of shit right there. And I don't want to
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: be that piece of shit. So I'm gonna leave John alone.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: If he really wants to get some rounds in, I would,
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: on a I would teach him how to fight if
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: he needed to, because he seems like a little fella
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: and he has a lot of mental listeners and I
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: imagine he he folks with a lot of people. Yeah,
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: so we probably I don't know, man.
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: I got a uh, got a midweek ripe left over
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: from Wednesday that's skipped by me that I would love
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: to hear what you have to say about this, and
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: and and anyone else. Got an email here says we
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: pay for streaming services like Roku. Why isn't it that
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: we are Why is it that we're already paying to
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: have the service? So why do we have to pay
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: to watch a movie? I got a thing on Netflix
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: that says that we're we were looking up a movie
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: and it says that you have to upgrade to the
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: the no ad streaming package on Netflix, which was six
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: ninety nine a month, and now it's Netflix has gone up.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: That was in the news last week. But this is
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: a movie that was this this individual saying was has
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: been out for like thirty years, twenty six years, and
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: now they've got to pay to be able to watch
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: a movie that's that old. They have to upgrade their
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: their Netflix package to the next level.
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: Oh, Mike, are they bitching about capitalism? I mean, Roku's
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: a business. They found a way to make money up.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: You don't like it, don't buy it? Yeah, I don't
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: know what it's like.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: You want to watch a movie that's twenty five thirty
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: years old? Do you get to pay for it?
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: Now? Who's you know? What you should do? You should
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: contact your senator and representative and you should make them
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: come up with a loss so they can't do that.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: Or Yeah, I don't. I don't know, man, I'm not
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: an expert on Roku. I just know that that's part
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: of capitalism. It's part about making money. Yeah, it's a business.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: It's it is a business. It is a business. But
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: you know, my god, I mean, whatever happened in the
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: days where we could just go watch an old movie
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: that's been sitting around for a little while.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: We didn't. We had to pay cable fee, we had
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: to buy individual stations, and then those individual stations we
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: had to pay pay per view. Nothing has changed, only
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: the name. It went from Spectrum to Roku. What has
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: changed Roku? Just feil And it is funny because all
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: they did was take the cable business model and call
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: it Roku. Yeah remember that, remember back in the day
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: when you first got cable, you got had all those stations,
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: and then they were like, wait a minute, we can
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: make more money if we take out max Abo. We
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: could take out all these and start selling them back
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: to you as packages. Ye Netflix, they all did the
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: same thing, same exact business model.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: Amazing.
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, that would be a great I mean,
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: is that is that?
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: All it is? Is just simple capitalism?
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess that's my perspective. That's how
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: I view it. How but how do you? I mean,
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: you can bitch about it about what can you do
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: about it? Now? That's until somebody else comes along with
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: a different program and says, hey, we'll do it cheaper
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: this way. Yeah, and then they'll get greedy and they'll
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: figure out how to break it apart and make more money.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: What do you what do you think about the the
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: Monday after the super Bowl? Should that be a holiday?
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: Yes? Really? Yes?
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: Do you think?
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: I just remember being in the army and that was
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: the day they would wake your eye. They would tell
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: you you're like, you're off. We understand it's super Bowl
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: Sunday and Monday, you are off. They would wake our
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: ass up at four point thirty in the morning in
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: piss test. Wow. Oh, I hated that. You just had
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: to plan on it.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: Do you think there should be a presidential executive order
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: stating that the Monday after the super Bowl is a holiday.
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: I don't believe in presidential executive orders at all. I
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: think they circumvent our legislative system. I think it. I
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: don't like the power that it gives an individual. So no, no,
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: I don't agree with that all right.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: Forty percent, according to a new study, say that the
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: Monday after the super Bowl is the worst Monday of
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: their entire year back at work, the worst.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: Why why? So you know?
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: And I got into this discussion yesterday with a friend.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: Why can't the super Bowl be on a Saturday? Why
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: can't it be on a Saturday night? I don't know, seriously,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: what is it is? What is it about that that
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: it can't be a Saturday. No, I don't hockey is
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: Sunday night.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: I don't follow hockey. I could. I couldn't tell you that.
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: You'd have to get some some hockey expert in here
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: to tell you all about it.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: So you're not going to be watching the super Bowl?
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: Uh? You know? I probably will all start at fall
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: asleep and wake up for the end of it. Okay,
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: that's normally what I do, same thing I used to
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: do for the Daytona five hundred. I've watched the first
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: ten laps, fall asleep and wake up for the last four.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and that what all old people do. Amazing Ecuador. Yes,
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: King is serving donut burgers.
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Bro, I was in al Salvade.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Have you seen the pictures of this donut burger from
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: Burger King? No, Oh my god, it's the most disgusting thing.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: Bro. Those countries, a lot of those, a lot of
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: the Oh you think that's a bad thing.
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: I think that's a bad I.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: Would totally eat that and I feel my arteries claw.
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, sweet and salt at the same time. You know,
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: the worst part is that's probably like a five star
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: restaurant in those countries. I was in El Salvador. I
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: shit you not. We were like, oh my god, I
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: hadn't had pizza in almost a year, and we we
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: were in I was just doing some things in El
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: Salvador and uh we just we saw a pizza hut.
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh fuck, yeah, we're going to a
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: pizza And now I remember walking in there. I had
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: my shoe it's on, and a do rag on my head,
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: and everybody was all dressed up inside of this pizza
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: eating pizzas with knives and fork. They looked at us
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: like we were savages.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Oh my god.
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really weird to see those as like
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: a real restaurant.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: But there's some wacked out shit going on in other
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: countries with US national franchises. I mean, I don't know
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: how in China, look what they're doing. Who would want
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: to put some burgers in between some glazed donuts. But
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: now I'm saying, yeah, I think it's the sweet and salty.
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna have big Kenny on here. Next week.
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Big Kenny's giving me a shout out this morning.
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: He'll be because I'm gonna be at the fights with Sofia.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: So Sofia's fighting next week down in New Hampshire for
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: a combat zone for Calvin Cator.
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, so she's.
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: Fighting down there, that'll be. That's our whole team will
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: be down there. Yeah, that's what we're gonna do that,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: I think when they come back. Lucas is also he's
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: setting up so our self defense course went great. There
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: was so many people inside of there. Lucas ended up
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: getting sick. Me and Sophia taught it.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Well, everybody's got the flu now, Yeah.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: It was. It was horrible there for a little bit.
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: But bro, you should have seen their faces when Sofia
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: was doing these super dynamic throws on me. I was
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: launched into the air so she kicked. Yeah. No, it
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: was great because we did that. We wanted to show
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: people that with training, even one hundred and thirty five
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: pound female can toss around at two hundred pund man.
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: The little old lady that was there, she was like,
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: how the hell did she just get you so high
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: in the air. That was like because she understands where
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: hips need debate, she understands body mechanics stuff like that.
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: So with such a huge response, Lucas has been like
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: trying to uh, thinking of things to do with his facility.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: And the first thing that he's gonna do is he's
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: gonna do another women's only self defense, right, so watch
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: the page. He'll announce that because we had so many
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: people ask for a women's only, so he he heard
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: them and he's going to do that for them. They
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: were so excited over the over it, so that he
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: will be doing that. The other thing that he's trying
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: to do is when he has not picked the date
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: because he's got to get through Sophia's fight, so it'll
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: probably be like two weeks after Sophia. I'm assuming, I
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: don't know he hasn't picked the date. Just follow granted
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: City MM and the Facebook page so that you can
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: see it all right. So the other thing that he's
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: thinking of doing because he has such a beautiful facility
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: is he's been trying to hook up with the Berrytown
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: Police Department because we would like to do a something
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: that has to do with with keeping the commune unity safe,
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: and that is safe gun handling for kids. Wo Yeah,
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: because the NRA puts out a really great Eddie the
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: Eagle program for kids on what happens if you if
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: you're at somebody's house and you come across the gun.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: Interesting.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's about safety and stuff like that. So we
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: would love to I know Lucas would love to have
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: the law enforcement guys there in Berrytown to get with
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: him if they see this okay, so that we can
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: come up with a gun safety program. And we'd like
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: to do it on a regular basis so all the
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: kids are able to come in and see this, and
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: we'd love for the law enforcement people to teach that
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: part of it.
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: Here's the issue me, You're an issue.
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: I am absolutely an issue. And so this is where
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: the mental help thing comes in. Everybody looks at me
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: and they're like, ah, what a fucking you know. I've
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: had people that were envious of me, and that blows
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: my mind. I'm like, I don't know what you're envious
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: of me from. I mean, if you saw inside my head,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: you would not be envious. So my as a child,
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 2: I was horribly abused. I was sexually assaulted, I was molested,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: I was beaten, I was physically and emotionally abused. My
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: parents at a young age decided to they needed a babysitter,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: so they fostered a teenage boy that was molesting kids
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: and they made him my babysitter. So that's where it started,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: and then it throughout my whole life, there's always been
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: severe trauma and I never knew it was like a trauma.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: I never knew, like my father being blested by a
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: grown man and beat me up because he refused to
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: have a faggot in his house.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: So we're about to get deep here here. I am
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: thinking that we were just wrapping things up. But wow, yeah,
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: so there was that throughout my life. So I have
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: been everything I've dealt with.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: Has been dealing with like emotional responses. So I'd been
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: a piece of shit to the cops around here locally.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: So this is things that I have to work through.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: Had nothing to do with them. It had to do
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: with my own problem with authority. It's my own problem
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: with my own childhood, my own mental issues that I had,
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: And I never realized I had mental issues, didn't know.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: I thought I was just a normal person. I didn't
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: understand that that rage where that rage came from, and
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: there's never anybody to talk to. There really is. And
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: I went to a psychiatrist when my doctor sent me
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: to a psychiatrist. And because my wife found out that
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: I think about suicide, she's like, oh fuck, I never
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: knew that. Why why would you know that? I don't.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: I would never tell anyone that that's my that's me so,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: and if I want to do it, that's that's my choice.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: I don't. There's nobody saying I have to stay on
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: this planet. So they sent me to a psychiatrist, and
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: his focus was on how many guns I had and
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: what my plan was to stay safe. I was so
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: disconnected from that motherfucker, just like any other veteran. I
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: don't want to talk to anybody now. I don't want
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: to talk to you. I don't want to talk to
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: a professional when you're hyper focused on my guns. I
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: don't care that. Leave me to fuck alone, because my
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: biggest fear is they're going to take my guns. They're
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: gonna put me in a mental institution with padded walls
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: and feed me a bunch of fucking drugs to where
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know my own mind, who, I don't know
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: who I am that's that's a real fear. That's a
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: real fear for a lot of us. But parents, you
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: don't understand what you do to a child when they're
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: developing and you abuse them, the screaming at them, the
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: beating of them, and I didn't you know, it really
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: hit me after Mama died. That was a big that
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: was a huge mental thing for me.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: And that happened. Yeah, not too long ago when m
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: A couple of years ago. No, it's been about a
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: year now, Okay, Wow, I thought it was more like two.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, okay, it's been there, so uh mental that's
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: why mental health man against guys. We have known to
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: talk to you like I'm not going to get online
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: and talk to my buddies or nobody knows how to
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: deal with this, and so we suck it up. We
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: we we sit back. I watch things on TikTok, especially
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: like THEO or something I and I. I it'll start
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: talking about being unloved. I break down, privacy in my
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: own home, I break down. I know that. Mm hmmm
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: that came off. Yeah, it's off. It's me. I know
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: that feeling as a child, I know that feeling ash
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: having your father tell you You're the root of all
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: their problems. You are you were never supposed to be here.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: You've ruined their life. So I felt that you know,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: and that I have a lot of empathy for kids.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: I I really do, especially abuse kids. I have a ton.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: I have a ton of empathy for bullies because I
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: know where they're coming from. I was a bully. I
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: get it. I got bully at home, so I brought
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: it to school. There was a time I remember driving
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: home from Milton and I walked into the woods with
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: my gun and I was leaned against a tree. I
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: didn't want to go too far. I didn't want my
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: family to find me, so I owned to the Snowbridge Road.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: I parked my truck so they could find my truck.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: And I want to you know, And I knew if
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: I did it there, they would probably send a search party.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: In a search party, my family wouldn't have to be
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: exposed to finding me. I'll try to make it through
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: this story, but this is really hard for me. I
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: was on that version. I remember asking God for a sign.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: I've never told anyone this. I got a text and
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: it was four words. It was from my son. He said,
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: I love you, Dad, I put my gun away and
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: decided that wasn't the day. Wo I can't believe I
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: said that story out there. I've never told anyone that.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: So when you look at people, especially men, and you
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: think you envy them, life isn't always great, man, and
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: even some of the most successful people in the world
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: have fucked up heads, you know. So that's why I
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: don't want to fuck with John Anderson, because I've come
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: to the realization he has some real and just as men.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: I don't want to fuck with another man that's having
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: those kind of problems because I have empathy for John,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: I really do. I know, I trill in him, and
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm not worried about him beating me up.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: I don't care what he says. I really don't.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: But I have a lot of.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: Empathy for these people. I have empathy for men, I
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: really do. Women. Man, they they're so lucky. They're so
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: lucky to have people that talk to They're so lucky
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 2: to have friends. You know, when you talk to your buddies,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: what do they tell you? Fucking rub some fucking dirt
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: in it, Man, get over it. I don't want to
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: hear your problems because it's gonna bring up my problems.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: I don't want to talk about suicide because I think
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: about suicide. We all have those same things in our
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: fucking heads. That's why we don't want to talk about
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: to other men. If women, if our wives could see
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: what was in our heads, it would fucking scare them
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: to death. I keep every bit of anxiety away from
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: my family. I keep it all inside to shield them
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: because I'm the protector of the family. That's how we
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: were raised, That's how we as men, that's how we
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: we do it. We keep it all inside. Eighty seven
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 2: percent of all suicides are men. The weight on our
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: shoulders is fucking insane, insane. So our wives don't know.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: This stuff has affected every part of my life, every
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: one of my relationships. You know, my kids, my family, drugs, alcohol,
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: You know, you're always trying to find a way to
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: make that shit go away, whether it's be through drugs,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: whether it be through alcohol. And once again, parents, you
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: are such a huge influence on your children. You have
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: no clue.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: All right, don't have to be.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: I don't ever. I'm only I only showed this vulnerable
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: part of myself hoping it helps somebody else. I feel very,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: very weak right now. I feel embarrassed right now for
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: even talking about this. And the worst part is most
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: all the men watching this know exactly the place I'm
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: coming from. We've all felt that, we all know it.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: And our wives think we're fucking crazy, that we're just
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: angry people. Nope, we're trying to survive. We're just trying
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: to survive by ourselves. We're trying to hold the weight
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: of our family. We're holding the weight of everything by ourselves.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: We don't want to open up to our wives because
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: we are the patriarch, We're the strong person. And if
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: we're not the strong ones, who the fuck's going to
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: be the strong one in our family? We have to
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: stand strong? But how do we stand strong and survive?
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: And I wish I knew the answer because I don't.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: So the only thing that I have is I is
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: I have to look for signs to stay here. How
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 2: fucking can you? Well, you can't imagine it. You're a man, ladies,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 2: imagine that every day is just a survival. What sign
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: are you going to look for today to not suck?
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: Start a shotgun? And then the doctors the whole thing,
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: Like I said that, the taking the guns away. You
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: think if I want to fucking end myself, you're taking
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: all my guns away? Is going to stop that. It's not.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: It's not, And I'm glad. I'm glad I got it
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: out there. And I'd rather me be embarrassed than have
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: another guy kill himself today ver month.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: Second leading cause of death is suicide in this little,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: tiny state. Second, yeah, because.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 2: You feel like you're drowning. You feel like there's no out,
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: there's nothing. It's that dark place, it's that dark hole.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: Look for a sign. Just look for a sign to
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: make it another day. That's all we can do. Live
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 2: day by day, right, take it one day at a time.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: Some days are better than others. But you want me
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: to tell you what is the biggest factor. A good woman,
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: having an understanding woman, having a woman that stands behind
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: you is huge. Man. Without that, that will compound your problems.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: I can most certainly relate to that. Charylyn has to
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: deal with me on a daily basis.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: My wife doesn't deal with me my wife basis for
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: days on end, thinking that our problems will go away.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: That is the absolute worst thing that you can do
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: to somebody is ignore them when they're going through that
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: shit because as it does, is compound daily, daily, and
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: the longer you ignore it, the bigger the explosion is
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: going to be. At the end, address the problem. Have
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: those conversations. If you see your husband sitting there just
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: not talking, there's shit going on, man, there really really is.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: And I don't know. That's once again that I think
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: that it goes back. It's hard once we become adults
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: to fix all that shit. Just know as a parent,
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 2: what you're creating when you beat your kid, when you
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: scream at your kid, you have no clue what you're
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: doing to that child. Think about it. Just take a minute.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 2: If you're that angry with your kid or whatever, just
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: take a second, take a deep breath, and just take
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 2: a second. It's overwhelming to be a parent. Don't ruin
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: your child's entire life because of an emotional response. That's
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: why I believe in older parents. Don't have kids when
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: you're seventeen, eighteen, nineteen years old. Wait until youre twenty five,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 2: twenty six, twenty seven, thirty years old, when you're more
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: mature and you can handle being a parent. Because it's stressful.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: It's super stressful, and because of my own trauma as
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: a child and everything. I left a lot of that
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: burden on my wife. I was out doing drugs. I
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: was on a one percent motorcycle game. That's how I
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: deal with my shit, and I left all of that
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: of my wife. Creative resentment eight. I was a piece
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: of shit by my own choices. I'm not above that.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: My ego is gone, man, it really has. But wow,
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: soldier on right, that's what we do.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: I think. I think there's a good number of folks
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: that are watching and listening this morning that if they're
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: not thanking you with their comments, they're thanking you in
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: their their minds.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 2: I don't need to be thanking.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: Just for being so so transparent.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: That's uh, that's come with my age. I never want
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: to be transparent with anyone there is, and I know
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: that there's plenty of people that get ticked off.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: When they watch or listen well to anything, any podcast,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: any radio station, any TV station, and locally especially One
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: of the biggest challenges I think that has come into
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: this microphone is that too many people take us too seriously.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, grab my grab my keys. They're right over
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: there on the on the on the end of the
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: U right over there on the shelf, right there, you'll
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: you'll see yeah, right there, yeah, silver key, m.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: Hmm.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: I think that too many people, too many listeners take
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: things too seriously and when when they listen, when they listen,
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: they they don't necessarily know when when we're really just
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: having fun and just just just having a good time
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: and just goofing around and just talking real real life
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: like we would if we were hanging out at a bar. Yeah,
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: do you know what I'm saying? You know we need
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: more well, I mean.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: Sitting down from both perspectives, we're.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: Gonna make We're gonna make fun of each other. You
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: make fun of me all the time. Yep, fat short,
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: you're bald, I'm not. You know, I've gone through puberty.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: You haven't yet, you know, things like this. But we're
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: gonna make fun of each other. We're also going to
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: make fun of of of people that are watching listening,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: and we're going to disagree, We're going to agree. We're
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: gonna that's just the way the way that we are.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, the podcast is called to air it out.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: And if if you don't want to follow it, you
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: don't want to listen.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 2: Keeps making comments, come on in tell us your point
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: of view. If we're just fucking talking on our outcome
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: to us, right, I have no I so And that's
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: the thing is, I'm not I'm not here to beat
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: up somebody because they have a different point of view.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 2: You could say whatever you want to me.
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, yeah. Look who's just walked in mcscheffrey. Man,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: you missed it.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 2: Brother looked terrible.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: He looks terrible.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: Look amazing.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: You you missed it. You were in a meeting. But
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: we were talking plenty about you, Bud.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: I know, let's tap on Rex bringing to the table today.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: We were talking about how Barry Vermont was not fucking
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: rainbows and unicorns when we were kids. It wasn't until
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 2: the mayor Tom Loson came in and really cleaned up
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 2: the city. The city was really bad back in the
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: day when I was growing up. There was nothing nice
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: about it. We weren't. We weren't together. You had the poor,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: You had the fucking town kids that come down and
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: fight with the city kids.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: I read your I read your message, your post from
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: last night on social media.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: Rich were you drunk? That's why I don't get That's
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: why I cannot drink again.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 4: Kidding I.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: Read that this morning.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 4: Just sick of it? Just sick of it?
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: What are you sick of?
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: What are you sick of?
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 4: Mostly mostly Rex and stuff mostly No, I'm just kidding.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 4: It's just like I think I caught a little bit
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 4: of it when I walked in. You know, I can
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 4: agree to disagree on stuff. Doesn't mean you don't care
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 4: about your brothers. I mean we went to high school together.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 4: If you ever need anything, I've called him before he's
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 4: come over. We don't have to have the exact same
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 4: political alignment. I mean, how is that even possible. We
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 4: weren't built the same way, born and raised the same way.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 4: You know, none of nothing was the same. We didn't
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 4: have the same influences throughout our life, like we I've
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 4: spent place in the military and all over the country
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 4: in different places, and you know, you get things from
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 4: from where you are and your surroundings, and you try
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 4: to compartmentalize them and come up with your own opinions
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 4: and you know, life lessons.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: It's just all very I was very very frank about
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 2: like my my point of view doesn't align with a
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 2: lot of people when it comes to Inmigracia because I
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 2: lived with those people. I have a different perspective of
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: those people. And my point was your post me and
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: you we could talk about this on a podcast that
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: only has you know, ten thousand people viewing or whatnot.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 2: But we have leaders that have billions of dollars to
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: keep us divided. They we will never from the ground
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: up bring people together. Leaders.
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 4: But as soon as you recognize that's impossible, then you
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 4: got to start, you know, trying to figure out what
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 4: it is you can do with with your brains and
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 4: with your skills and with your platforms. And it's whatever
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 4: you try to fix what you can around you, because
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 4: you're just gonna be miserable. You can't look at this stuff.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 4: I don't care what side of the aisle you're on
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 4: or what your opinions are. When you're watching this stuff,
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 4: feelings get hurt and people get upset. And like I said,
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 4: you know, you're you're friends with with somebody on Facebook
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 4: for a reason. You know, obviously everyone requested me. I
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 4: haven't ever requested anyone, but but you're you're friends with
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 4: them for a reason. You accepted them, all right, And
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 4: it's like I I look at it now, or I'm
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 4: starting to look at it more after the last eight
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 4: years just nonsense, is you never talked at the dinner
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 4: table about politics and religion, right right, So why are
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 4: we doing it on a platform with our friends and family.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: Because we can so now we don't have to deal
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: with the consequences right then and there, we don't have to.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: We can say what we can say. The wildest ship
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: I did social media.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 4: I did it and understand it. I just don't appreciate.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 4: I think it's a it's melting melting brains, I do.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 4: I just don't.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: The thing about both of you guys are busier than
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: I am, and and that says something. But the fact
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: that you guys do take the time, both of you
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: to pay attention to what's what's being said in your community.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's plenty of social media platform keyboard pirates
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: even here close by, more so maybe even close by,
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: But the fact that you guys pay attention to what's
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: what's being said. One of my knee jerk reactions last
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: night when I read your post was I'm like, here's
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: Rich mcsheffery, busy freakin' dude, but he's aware of of
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: what of what's going on, of what's being said locally here,
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: I'm talking main Street Barry. There is so much divisiveness.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 4: In my business, I'm not allowed to. You know, there's
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 4: a lot of things that I probably would say if
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 4: I know. It was always off the record, but you
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 4: know you can't. I can't divide. We don't discriminate, right,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 4: discriminated against anyone that comes in, you want to buy
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 4: a hamburger and a beer. Our doors are open, that's
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 4: what we're there for. Right, We've never ever ever had
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 4: anything like that. You've never had a I've never had
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 4: a niche on my record, and you know, right, thirty
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 4: five years in this business, because that's what the hospitality
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 4: industry is. You know, you can't voice your opinions. I
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 4: say one thing that's off color, which I did on CEO.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 4: I said it on CI they had this. I actually
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 4: thought it was a joke. I really did. I thought
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 4: the article was a joke. I didn't even in fairness,
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 4: I didn't even read it. I probably should have. It
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 4: was about a four hundred and ninety eight pound wrapper
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 4: that she was denied a lyft ride because of her size,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 4: and I said, perhaps she should have called fork lift. Yeah,
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 4: I it's again I wasn't. I just it just that's
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 4: how my brain works. It's always so sential.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: It's just I'm unapologetically.
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 4: It's it's quick witted. And I wasn't. I wasn't doing
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 4: it because but she went back and or somebody commented,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 4: I mean it got more likes, which yip do do?
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: Who cares?
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 4: That wasn't the point. I was just like, oh, this
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 4: is clever, and I put it on there. But because
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 4: of the first thing that came to my mind, I've
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 4: said that. But somebody came back and says, that's how
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 4: business owners behave these days? Do you discriminate and pick
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 4: on and laugh at the people that come to the
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 4: Cornerstone Pubing Kitchen and tagged it? And I'm like, yeah,
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 4: so I just deleted it. I'm like, we're losing a customer.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, I have something against people that are overweight,
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 4: and I sell five dollars hamburgers and French fries on right, you.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 2: Know, like, wow, come on that listen. It sucks that
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: you have to and he's right though, as a business
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: owner you do have to watch. Yeah, And I have to.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: I catch myself because I have emotional responses to everything.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 4: Just wait till I retire one day.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 2: Oh god, that's gonna be its own.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna be I'm gonna be up against you with
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 4: my podcast. It's gonna insane.
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 2: See, all you got to do is show him how
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: to do everything, get him a bunch of followers, and
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: then he can steal all your ship and leave.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 2: Perfect, What I mean you should build up more people
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 2: so everybody can start a podcast in town and think
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 2: there's something fucking special.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like starting your own Facebook page. It's that easy.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna start one that calls Barry against tampon racks.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, that's a good page. Yeah.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 4: If I post that on Cornerstone, we'll get like ten
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 4: thousand flights and again.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 2: Wait, yes, that's so cool. You know.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: Here, here's the here's the thing, guys, all three of
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: us and Rex has been taking a very deep dive
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: on mental mental health.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 4: I didn't mean to come into that.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, that that's how you got.
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: The three of us. Let's be honest.
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 4: What do we figure out.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say that we like to
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: be liked. I think most people would.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 2: Growing up, and like I said, my trauma that is
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: like a huge thing for me to be a people pleaser.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, being a people pleaser because I could never please
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: my family, my father.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 2: To this day, my father doesn't talk to me. He
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 2: killed my mother. He doesn't he doesn't talk to me.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: He has nothing to do with me.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: When I was on Froggy for sixteen years.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 4: I didn't know that did me all? Well, glad I
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 4: wasn't here for that part.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: And watch it, But being on Froggy, it's like every morning,
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: you know, I would have to be happy, go lucky,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: no matter what was going on my life. Yes, and
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 1: so hard to prep with that smiling right, and I
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: had to be I just want to always on stage
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 1: always exactly.
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 4: Guys know this where you go in the public.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, guys, this more than anybody.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: Even if there was someone, even if there was someone
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: that I that I didn't particularly like, I had to
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: be friendly all the time, whether I was face to
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: face with them or no matter what I'm representing Froggy
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: one hundred point nine. Now this is liberating for me
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: because I can be myself. I know, and I think
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: we all know. You you have customers rich that maybe
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: you've lost. Same story with you here at aired out.
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely. But man, it's like I'm not gonna say
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 1: everything that that everyone always agrees on. I'm gonna get loose.
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna most of the time I'm goofing around.
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 4: I feel bad it like other restaurants probably think I
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 4: boycott him or something. I just don't go out.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: I'm a homebody. I've got two little girls. Now, I've
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 4: got a twenty five year old son. You know, you're busy,
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 4: busy stuff.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 2: I feel that I'm at the gym at night and
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: I'm working during the day.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 4: They still have the ladies workout up the street.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: Do they do? Yeah?
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: Listen, this is you know. I think back to your
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: message Rich to sum up here. I think you're you're
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: just trying to I think you were just trying to
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: say and like I said earlier, you should go back
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 1: and watch this one.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 2: But how do we get leaders to how do we
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 2: start getting leaders that aren't looking to divide us and
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 2: looking to bring us together. There's nothing I haven't seen
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 2: anybody try to try to bring this together.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 4: One thing, one thing about that that's difficult is that
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 4: is that even for me, people have said it before.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 4: Why don't you run for you know something in and
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 4: blah blah blah, and it's like you do and then
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 4: and then you're you're opening yourself up to so many
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 4: different opinions and somebody's gonna pick you apart and find,
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 4: you know, find the worst thing they can about you
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 4: and make you look like shit when all your intentions.

  Speaker 2: That's why out there, I'm like, I am a piece
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 2: of shit that did drugs and did all that.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, your passionn't matter, it's what you're you want.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 4: Well it should. Actually, that's that's a little unfair. Some
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 4: of your passion matter depending upon how bad your past was.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 4: But like that kind of stuff, I mean, that's all

• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: We need to to take a deep breath. We need
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: to not take each other so seriously. Also, do not
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: take this podcast seriously.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 4: I don't think anybody takes us seriously.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: You know, I mean we goof around a lot. We
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: call each other names. Uh, you know, lighten up. Whatever
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: happened to us? Lightening up? I mean everything you see
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 1: in your on your on your phone, everything's coming down.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: The pipe in the news. It's all serious shit. This
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: and that is constant.
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 2: How do you think they keep us divided? Everything's a tragedy.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: So I don't believe. So a lot of people believe
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 2: in conspiracies and like the government creates them. I don't
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: believe that. I believe that all they have to do
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 2: is tag along. There's gonna be a tragedy every day.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 2: There's three hundred and thirty million people. They don't need
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 2: to create a tragedy. There will. We'll create our own.
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 2: They just have to fucking take advantage of it. Right,
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 2: that's it.
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 4: As long as you're as long as you're watching mainstream
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 4: stream news, going on Facebook and having so many different
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 4: opinions and all that, it's never gonna change. It's just
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 4: you got way too much in your head that you're trying.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 4: If you've got the time and you're you're trying to
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 4: navigate through this ship. It's like you don't you get
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 4: to the point where you don't know what to believe
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 4: and you know you have no choice but to develop
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 4: your own opinion to move on.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: It's hard. I disagree.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 4: I disagree, but I don't have my master's degree in
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 4: political science but I'm trying to I'm trying to listen
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 4: to people that are doctors, lawyers and do you know,
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 4: and and I just think sometimes it's like I'm not
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 4: even smart enough to figure this shit out, So I'm
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 4: donate my time to cook some shit for the mainstream media.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 2: Fake media. To me, that is government propaganda to get
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 2: you not to watch what's going on. That's all it is.
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 2: They're regulat We all know there's news stations, and we
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 2: all know that they're biased, but we know that the
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 2: information that they're putting out you can research yourself. Of course,
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 2: So the difference between mainstream media versus TikTok YouTube and
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: all the other. No, but what I'm saying, but no,
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 2: you're absolutely right. So instead what people are doing is
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: they go and they get on a TikTok and find
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 2: a TikTok video and let somebody else do the research
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 2: for them. And then they go, well, you're watching mainstream media,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 2: so you're just listening to fake news. That's why you're
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 2: fucked up.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 4: But no one can tell me that social media. Social
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 4: media has not affected the just and the youth. I mean,
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 4: when I first whatever sixteen years ago, getting on Facebook
• 1:33:30
