None. None.
1:33
None. All right, welcome to Proverbs
2:35
Guys Ministries. I am one of your hosts, Steven
2:37
Andrew. I'm glad you guys came out for
2:39
this really cool episode. I'm getting to interview a very
2:43
good friend of mine and I want to just, I'm about to play a
2:47
song for you guys from his album.
2:50
It's a really cool song. I listen to it a couple times.
2:53
I think you guys will dig it too.
2:55
And that's going to be his bat call to come on to the show.
2:59
But I wanted to just give you a brief history first of Proverbs
3:03
Guy's ministries. We, as some of you know who have
3:06
been with us for a long time, we're not always Proverbs Guy's
3:10
ministries. We didn't always have 9 hosts
3:13
with 9 different shows going on through the week.
3:16
Originally it was just Stephen Andrew with Proverbs 2717 and I
3:22
was very new to YouTube and I was very bad at YouTube and none
3:29
of the major Christians in my life who were on YouTube had a
3:35
lot of time to spend with me. So they taught me virtually
3:39
nothing, whereas Mr. Brett Kane took me under his wing and
3:44
taught me virtually everything I ever knew about YouTube and
3:48
podcasting and running live open panels, the entire lion's dens
3:55
that we have that we do or we encourage the atheist to come
3:59
engage with us all modeled after the way Brett Kane did his show.
4:05
So I just want to give a special thanks to Brett for taking that
4:12
time and showing me what I know and allowing me to be able to
4:16
grow into what Proverbs Guys Ministries is today.
4:20
I can honestly say if it wasn't for Brett's help early on,
4:24
Proverbs guys would not look anything like it does today.
4:27
It would be a really poor production.
4:29
So thank you Brett. I want to go ahead and play this
4:34
song that he produced. It's one of the songs on his
4:40
album. So I want you guys to go check
4:42
out all the songs on the album. I have it posted in the
4:46
description of this interview episode.
4:48
But without further ado, I am going to step backstage and play
4:54
this song and I hope you guys all really enjoy it.
5:14
I watch you walk these empty halls, talking to the barren
5:20
walls. You wear the paper crown, so
5:24
proud, speaking to an absent crowd.
5:33
Your eyes don't see what's real anymore.
5:46
Drifting further from the shore. I see you slipping through my
5:53
head, making castles in the sand.
5:59
You're dancing with the morning lights, chasing visions in the
6:05
night. La La.
6:10
You tell me stories of your throne, of kingdoms that you
6:15
rule alone, but all I see is an empty chair and bitter words
6:21
that fill the air. I see you slipping through my
6:37
head, making castles in the sand.
6:42
You're dancing with the morning light, chasing visions in the
6:49
night. Can't you hear me calling out?
6:55
Can't you see beyond your doubt everything you think you are?
7:01
It's just a lie you've always known.
7:23
See you slipping through my hands, making castles in the
7:28
sand. You're dancing with the morning
7:29
light, chasing vision in the night.
7:32
Oh, fading away. The crowd is falling from your
7:38
head. The Kingdom.
7:52
It's only in your head. I wish that you could
7:57
understand. It's time to leave.
8:00
The snow will land. All right, was that not an
8:26
awesome song or what? Hey, what you up to mate?
8:31
Hey, how have you been, Mr. Brett Keane?
8:34
Been doing pretty good, tired today, had to do a lot of work
8:39
on graphic design and dealing with some nonsense, but besides
8:43
that I'm happy to be here. What's up?
8:46
Are you are you utilizing Canva? Canva.
8:51
Canva. It is an all in one multi
8:54
purpose tool and there's a free version that you can try out.
8:57
You really need to give it a go I'll.
9:00
Have to check it out. Some kind of I think I heard of
9:03
something, some kind of paint program.
9:06
Well, it does a lot more than that.
9:08
It's it's a fascinating multi tool, but you can even do video
9:13
editing on it, but we'll check that out later.
9:17
First of all, let's dig into your music, man.
9:19
So you have 20 songs posted on the GOD TV Radio YouTube
9:24
channel. How many songs do you have on
9:27
all the albums? What?
9:29
How much music's out there? Well, if you check out my
9:33
website, which is that one of the first links that you put in
9:36
your description, there's almost I'd say practically 40 tracks.
9:43
There's the other 20 are waiting to be put on CD.
9:47
The one you just heard is recently on a jewel case CD and
9:52
a sleeve case. Oh OK, I'm pulling this up now
9:58
so we can share it with the audience and help plug it.
10:01
Is this the correct link you were talking about?
10:04
Yeah. That's all right.
10:07
Let me share this, all right, OK, so this is where you can buy
10:12
the CD, guys. You can buy it on Amazon.
10:15
You can buy the shirts. YouTube channel, all the links
10:18
here posted. We'll accept all a lot of
10:23
albums. Now, music's not new to you
10:26
though, Brett, right? You've been doing music for
10:28
what, 15 years or more? I was doing music a lot whenever
10:32
I was a younger man. And then I slowed down, got out
10:36
of it for a little bit, started writing books and such.
10:39
I even got one of my books selling on the side as well.
10:43
And yeah, and took a took a break from it, got tired of
10:47
dealing with musicians. And then is that when you
10:52
decided to jump into the world of YouTube with all their mini
10:55
trolls? Yeah, yeah.
10:58
It was actually a pretty rough time in the moment whenever I
11:01
decided to start up YouTube. But I I used to use like Yahoo
11:06
Chat and AOL. I can't believe that stuff even
11:11
existed as long as it did. All right.
11:15
Well, just for some of the people who are going to watch
11:17
this and they don't maybe know who Brett Keene is.
11:21
Brett Keene was one of the most influential atheists on all of
11:25
YouTube. Before there was ever an Aaron
11:27
Raw, it was Brett Keene. Brett Keene was the atheist
11:31
vindicator and Brett Keene had a road to Damascus type of
11:36
experience and is very much trying to live for the Lord now.
11:41
So we won over one of the biggest tools that Satan ever
11:45
had on YouTube and we are extremely underutilizing him.
11:50
What else would you go over, Brett?
11:53
Well, yeah, yeah, I was saying that because I was doing those
11:56
chats and talking to religious folks and non believers.
12:00
A lot of people said, Brett, you got a pretty cool voice and
12:03
personality, why don't you do YouTube?
12:06
And I remember checking out YouTube 20 years ago.
12:08
It was just cat videos and gerbils on wheels that I was
12:12
like, why do they want me to do this thing for?
12:14
But I did. It blew up pretty quickly.
12:17
Well, my only competition was kittens and puppies, so you
12:21
know, what are you going to? Do that's true and you kind of
12:24
laid the pavement for all of YouTube podcast shows today.
12:29
All the live panels that you see are almost brainchildren of the
12:33
way you did your show the GOD TV Radio.
12:36
Is that right? Yeah, yeah, a lot of non
12:39
believers even nowadays, I've noticed because every once in a
12:43
while I get bored and feel like a masochist and go visit an
12:46
atheist channel, see what they're saying.
12:48
And they're not saying anything new or interesting that I
12:53
haven't already said. And better, you know, so it, it
12:56
doesn't impress me. Right.
12:59
Well, OK. And with YouTube, they seem to
13:03
have a pattern. Anytime somebody goes young
13:06
Earth creation or even Christian period, they definitely start
13:11
shadow banding your channel. It's happened to my channel.
13:14
It's happened to multiple channels for you.
13:16
Are you afraid at all that that will happen to this channel
13:19
again? As far as I know, it could have
13:22
already happened the moment I, you know, restarted up the
13:26
YouTube channel. I don't know.
13:28
I know a lot of Christian Youtubers who are making great
13:32
looking videos. And I mean, some of the imagery
13:35
that you use and thumbnails, you're really working hard to
13:38
make it right. And I think that you should be a
13:41
lot farther on YouTube than what you are.
13:44
You should be like 10,000 Subs in with the kind of time you put
13:48
into your work here. So something's wrong.
13:51
Yeah. Well, I mean, you had the same
13:53
experience, the channel you had when I met you, I think it was
13:56
over 10,000, right? Yeah, yeah, I've went through a
14:01
lot of channels. Yeah, for some reason, atheists
14:04
can sit up there and do nasty, weird stuff on video.
14:08
But if a religious person gets a little feisty, uh oh.
14:13
OK. Yep, exactly.
14:15
All right. So is YouTube your main platform
14:17
right now or is it more or less a backup platform for you?
14:21
Where are you putting most of your aches?
14:23
Well, I'm mostly dealing with the website and everything and
14:27
working on that and the music and YouTube's.
14:30
This I, I think one of the reasons why I even returned as I
14:34
like some of the people aren't here.
14:36
I dig folks like you and being able to talk to people on social
14:39
media. But I got to be honest, as far
14:42
as the religion versus atheist thing, that that started getting
14:46
boring because like I said, they say the same thing over and over
14:49
like a scripted robot. We can't get them to come on our
14:53
show anymore. I don't know if they're just
14:55
totally repulsed by us or if they got tired of getting kicked
14:59
around, but you know, besides like 3 trolls who are
15:02
permanently banned, we cannot. I don't think we could pay an
15:06
atheist to come on our show. Well, I wouldn't doubt it.
15:10
It's atheists aren't the same way they used to be a long time
15:14
ago. They were more, how shall I say,
15:17
beholden I, I don't know if it's right to say this on the screen
15:23
and stuff, but they, they seem to have more courage and guts
15:26
back in the day. And it was maybe because there
15:29
were people like me around there to, you know, give them some
15:32
good arguments or something. But nowadays they're weak.
15:41
Yay, yes, yes, yes, blah blah. Weak is the best way to describe
15:46
it. But not as weak, Brett as their
15:49
arguments for evolution, right? Yep.
15:55
You know, you, you were saying earlier that a link got
15:59
reverted. I actually went and checked out
16:01
that person's channel and it's an atheist and he's got the same
16:05
sob story. You know, something sad
16:07
happened. So he had a sad so therefore God
16:10
doesn't exist argument. You've heard that a million
16:13
times. It's always the same deal.
16:15
It's never for scientific reasons.
16:18
Well, yeah, it that's another reason why we say, and
16:22
rightfully so, that evolution and that type of science, the
16:26
pseudoscience, it is a belief, it is a religion.
16:31
It goes hand in hand. But now.
16:33
I don't know if you grabbed a copy of this off of my TikTok
16:37
but I still have that clip of you when you were debating that
16:41
atheist something. I'm I'm not going to advertise
16:44
him but you said so. You think you're a damn banana?
16:49
Yeah, I know the one you're talking about.
16:52
You added to it, right? Well, I got the clip.
16:55
If you don't have a copy of it, people would laugh if they seen
16:59
that. Yeah, send that over to me, man.
17:01
I'll share it. I'll share it on my socials.
17:04
You have a live show coming up tomorrow, right?
17:08
Yeah. What are you going to do for the
17:12
trolls? Are you just going to put them
17:14
backstage and kind of vet them and see what they're about
17:17
before you put them on? Well, tell you the truth, I can
17:21
understand why you're using EV mucks now.
17:24
I went over to stream yards like I usually used and it says I can
17:28
do live streaming up to two hours and that's it per month.
17:32
And I looked at the price plan and I was like 50 bucks.
17:36
What the hell? These people become burglars.
17:40
Look, it got bad Brett. We I was still using Stream
17:43
Yard, but we got up to 8 hosts and when we got up to 8 hosts,
17:48
the plan on Stream Yard would have cost us $300.00 a month.
17:52
The plan I have right now on Evemux is only costing me $100 a
17:56
month, but even that is a steep bill.
18:01
I hear you, I don't understand why they think that it's worth
18:04
that much money and I'm surprised Google hasn't went
18:07
ahead and just bought the thing already and made it into their
18:10
new Google plus or Google subtraction, whatever stupid
18:14
symbols you want to put behind it.
18:17
Now, do you have a theme or an idea, a general direction you're
18:21
wanting your show to go tomorrow?
18:23
Well, usually I try to keep things open for people to come
18:27
in and have discussions and all that.
18:30
I know it's probably an intelligent idea to come up with
18:33
some topics, but I figure while I'm waiting there's plenty of
18:36
things going on. Been watching the news a lot and
18:39
Oh my goodness, I could go on all day about politics.
18:43
I could go on all day about spirituality.
18:45
I mean, you name it, while I'm waiting for people to come in
18:48
and, you know, throw some questions at me.
18:53
You you've been pretty busy since we talked last.
18:57
You've got a slew of music out. You're working on all your
18:59
different social media platforms.
19:02
I've been pretty busy too. I I produced a documentary on
19:07
Kent Hovind. Have you seen that yet?
19:10
No, I haven't. How long is it?
19:13
So it's 5 episodes that are about 40 minutes long each.
19:19
So it's kind of set as a Netflix series type of documentary and
19:24
you can find it at the unmasking Kent Hovind YouTube channel.
19:28
So go check that out When? You have Am I able to get it on
19:31
CD or anything? Yeah, yeah.
19:34
If you go through the Doctor Dino website, it's listed at the
19:39
store. You can get a DVD copy of it.
19:42
Oh, that's awesome then. Yep, but it's also available on
19:46
YouTube so you can check it out while you're waiting.
19:48
But good stuff. Now, what are your plans for the
19:51
near future, Brett? Well, still working on the music
19:56
and also I've been working on a a book about my life and so far
20:02
I've gotten like, I don't know, to the point where I'm like 80%
20:06
done with it, but it's kind of hard to finish the 20% of life
20:10
when I'm still actually living. Yeah.
20:15
I mean, that's a good point. So are you saying pretty much
20:19
you're done up to right now current events?
20:22
Yeah, I'm, I'm pretty much to that point, but there's a
20:26
concern about releasing it because I talk about a lot of
20:31
family members and actually mention names and all that.
20:35
And some of my family members, they ain't passed the idea of a
20:38
lawsuit. Well, why don't you just change
20:42
some of the names? Well, it'd be kind of hard
20:46
because even if I change something to, you know, this
20:49
person's name is Zipper or whatever, they're going to know
20:53
who I'm talking about. And plus, it's Brett Keene
20:56
writing Brett Keene's life story, right?
20:59
OK, but what's wrong with that? Well, even if they didn't want
21:03
to sue me, there's going to be family members popping around
21:07
the door wanting whoops. And that's you understand.
21:10
No, I I get that. All right.
21:12
So it's pretty much a waiting game.
21:15
Are you waiting for some people to die?
21:17
And if so, as morbid as it is, do you think they'll outlast
21:22
you? Well, some of the people are
21:25
already gone in life, unfortunately, sadly for them,
21:29
but there are there are a couple people left where they they got
21:33
roasted pretty hard in the butt. OK, and this is not your first
21:39
book. You also have the afterlife
21:41
simulation, right? Yeah, the other stuff is
21:44
fantasy, sci-fi, that kind of stuff.
21:47
And one of my first novels was a horror novel.
21:50
This is actually based upon, you know, an actual person meet.
21:56
True. Yeah, I guess it would be hard
21:59
to write a book about your own life and to be totally
22:02
vulnerable and completely honest about all the details, you know,
22:06
because often we'd like to keep those skeletons in the closet.
22:10
So how much scar have you, you know, exposed during this
22:14
process? Oh.
22:15
I, I put all of my stuff out there and all that.
22:18
That's another thing. I know that if I released my
22:21
book, there'd probably be like tons of documentaries made about
22:24
me. So it's that's another thing
22:27
too, to concern. Truth matters out here says I
22:30
can't wait to read Brett's biography.
22:32
Is it short? I wish.
22:34
No. The thing at this point is
22:36
around 456 pages. And by the way, I did give you a
22:43
wrench, Brett, so if you see any trolls out there that I'm
22:47
missing, feel free to block them.
22:50
I don't see anybody cause any trouble out there.
22:53
You got all the nice people on your channel.
22:56
Oh, it took a lot of work to get rid of the certain Canadians and
23:01
some various others. Oh, Canadians, them and
23:05
Liberals. What are you going to do with
23:06
them? How come we haven't bought their
23:08
country already and ran that place right?
23:11
Well, you know, I gave you credit at the beginning of the
23:14
show for teaching so much about podcasting and running live
23:18
panels. And all of that's true.
23:20
But I didn't give you the discredit for some of the trolls
23:23
I inherited from from your platforms.
23:26
They found me and they stuck like glue.
23:31
Well, unfortunately that is what they do.
23:33
I've always warned people before I go on shows or podcasts, I
23:37
say, look, if I come over here, you're going to get, you might
23:40
make a few friends and all that, but you're also going to run
23:43
into a lot of turd burglars and unfortunately you have
23:47
experienced that. Yay.
23:49
Oh, I've been bombed and everything.
23:51
Yeah, I have been like fully christened in the YouTube
23:54
community. What do you plan to do?
23:59
Are you going to keep doing some shows?
24:01
You got any interesting things coming up?
24:04
Yeah, so we have a biblical archaeologist coming up, and
24:08
then we have a big interview with the family that produces a
24:13
line of Christian movies, the movie Courageous and Fireproof.
24:17
In that series, we're going to be interviewing those producers.
24:21
So we've got some big things lined up, but right now it's
24:25
more about developing our website and we're really trying
24:29
to push our our alternative platform Rumble.
24:35
So I think that's going to be our future Rumble, TikTok and X
24:40
because let's be honest, YouTube is not Christian friendly.
24:46
Well, I'll tell you what, the next time you run into some non
24:49
believer debaters and they claim up and down that there's no
24:53
evidence, tell them. Well, the abundance of evidence
24:56
we have for the Bible and geology and the figures in the
25:00
Bible compared to you claiming that we come from rocks is quite
25:04
overwhelming. You know you can say that.
25:08
You know, you said earlier that you were tired of the whole
25:12
evolution versus creation argument, and I could understand
25:15
why you took that battle on from both sides for a really long
25:18
time. But you had some of the classic
25:21
arguments, man, almost on the same scale as as Kent Hovind,
25:25
whereas you would spin it on them.
25:27
I remember your famous 1 the snot on a rock and explain the
25:32
variables in the environment like.
25:35
Great questions man. Well, it's, it's not so much
25:39
having an issue talking about evolution or science or anything
25:43
like that. I, I admire science.
25:46
I think that we both have a great deal of admiration.
25:49
I know Kent Hovind loves science as well.
25:52
And he especially uses that the, you know, whip the uneducated
25:56
out there, which I admire and respect as well.
25:59
The issue is, is the type of people we're talking to.
26:02
We get these folks that come in and they're narcissistic and
26:06
they act like they know everything, but it only takes 5
26:08
minutes to realize they didn't even make it to high school, you
26:11
know what I mean? Yeah, actually I do.
26:14
It's a lot of YouTube professors.
26:17
They've watched a lot of YouTube videos and they've learned to
26:20
parrot the information on the YouTube videos, and they will
26:23
continue propagating it further as science, knowing that we have
26:28
no observable, testable evidence for any of their claims.
26:35
Oh look at that out there missing mods.
26:37
Those were awesome and that makes me flush.
26:41
Yeah, there's been nothing really but good, favorable stuff
26:45
that I see out in the comments section, which I'm glad we have
26:48
nine people watching. I'm not going to open up the
26:51
panel because I guess last time I let somebody in that was
26:56
trolling, so I don't want to make a mistake of doing that
27:00
again. Otherwise, I'd open up the panel
27:02
and let people ask you some questions.
27:05
Well, I don't know. If you start doing that then
27:09
other people start bugging you. I am paying attention to the
27:12
comments if anyone. Everybody's been saying nice
27:15
things about both of us the whole time, almost making me
27:18
blush over here. But if anybody has any questions
27:21
I'll be more than happy to answer.
27:24
Oh, you know what? I'm really glad that you and
27:28
TTORI guess it looks like you guys have made-up.
27:34
Yeah, me and him had one of the same type of problems that you
27:38
and I ran into a while back where you brought somebody in,
27:42
they decided to take over your show.
27:44
Well, he did the same thing. And I told him before we went in
27:47
there, I said, look, I'm thinking about quitting YouTube
27:50
for a year or two and getting out of here.
27:53
And he's like, oh, that's, that's it's rough.
27:56
And I said this whole politics, it was right before Trump was
28:00
getting in and I was really concerned the election was going
28:03
to get screwed over. And I was just stressed out.
28:06
And I said, man, I just want to chill.
28:08
I want to hang out with my friends and have a good time.
28:11
I don't want any argument or fighting.
28:14
Within 5 minutes he had some wild feral animal up in there
28:17
screaming and yelling directly at me.
28:19
I was like, OK, I'm out. Yeah, and what blows my mind
28:24
about it, Brett, is if I quit YouTube tomorrow and never came
28:29
back, my name would be totally forgotten within a couple of
28:32
years if it took that long. But you, on the other hand,
28:35
you've quit YouTube multiple times.
28:38
And just up to the other day, I was scrolling through YouTube
28:42
and for some reason it was advertising the Drunken
28:44
Peasants. And they are still obsessed with
28:46
you. Like what makes you so special?
28:50
Well, it's weird, isn't it, how people, they make video saying
28:54
that you're, they're telling you that your garbage is a person
28:58
and you're irrelevant and all this.
29:01
And it's like, well, if I'm irrelevant, what the hell you
29:03
making a video for? You know somebody's actually
29:06
garbage and not worth your time, Then why spend an hour or two
29:11
talking about a person That's dumb?
29:15
Well, yeah, it it seems like it's obsession that or as I've
29:19
accused others of doing with our channel, they don't produce any
29:22
good content. So we are the content.
29:29
Yeah, that's exactly the way a lot of these podcasts do it.
29:32
They play other people's content and then talk.
29:35
Trash me and you could do that, Steven.
29:37
We can put some eyes, video up, mute them so we can't actually
29:41
hear what they're saying, and call them names all day.
29:44
That seems to help the atheist. I mean, I'm pretty sure that
29:48
Atheist Junior is making a whole living out of doing that against
29:52
Kent Hovind. Like his entire channel is
29:54
nothing about declaring war on Kent Hovind's legacy.
30:01
Well, you do realize that no matter what Junior does, Kent
30:06
Hovind has already imprinted himself from the universe many
30:10
years before that guy got out of diapers.
30:12
So he can try as he might, but it ain't going to do nothing.
30:17
Even with all, even with Kent's flaws and stuff, he's a way
30:21
better person than that Junior ever could be.
30:24
Oh, by the way, that's the banana guy that you're talking
30:27
about. Oh, that was him.
30:29
You're right. Yeah.
30:31
Man, I wish you would. I wish you would make a trip to
30:34
Noah's Ark in Kentucky with us. We're trying to get a bunch of
30:38
creationists to go there and protest the atheist protest, and
30:43
Atheist Junior is one of many people you know that'll be
30:47
there, and I can't wait to be able to engage him in debate
30:50
face to face. That'd be difficult for me, you
30:54
know, My patience levels very low.
30:57
Have a hard time not having flashbacks of WWE wrestling?
31:02
But it would be really funny because Aaron Raw is going to be
31:06
there too, and he would almost have to pay you homage because
31:10
if it wasn't for you, he would be a nobody.
31:13
He basically mimicked your every move to get where he is.
31:19
I ain't doing a very good job of it.
31:22
The Gothic Fabio is what I refer to him as, but he's the only
31:28
poster child they have right now.
31:29
Mark Reed has fallen off. Grayson base theories fallen
31:34
off. All the big ones are falling
31:36
off. Grayson took off.
31:41
He seemed like he had a little bit more charisma than the usual
31:45
baboon. What happened to him?
31:47
Well because he came to dinosaur adventure land on a visit and
31:52
said nice things while he was here and then as soon as he left
31:56
he did a trash talking video basically calling it a cult.
32:00
And I guess even atheists have some sort of moral code because
32:03
nobody thought it was in good taste.
32:08
Oh so he went there and while he was in front of Kent he treated
32:13
him with love and respect but then he comes back and turn
32:16
video runs his mouth. Typical daily atheist.
32:19
Yep. Yes.
32:21
However, there are exceptions to the rule.
32:23
For instance, Jackson Rowe. I've met him a couple times at
32:28
Dinosaur Adventureland and he's a salt of the earth kind of guy.
32:31
Really is. Why you say that?
32:36
He's a really respectable guy. He's been here multiple times.
32:40
And even though he, you know, holds to the belief of
32:43
evolution, he's open to being shown evidence.
32:46
And even if he disagrees with you, he's just a generally
32:50
sincere nice guy. Are you talking about a non
32:55
believer or Yeah. Yeah, he's an atheist.
32:59
He's met an atheist that knows how to listen, have a
33:01
conversation. What kind of miracles are you
33:04
weaving on me? Not only that, ma'am, but he
33:07
loves this place. He comes here and visits like,
33:09
you know, once every couple of years, you know, it might do you
33:13
some good to come visit. I Kent has repeatedly asked me
33:19
in the past to come down there. Unfortunately, although I've
33:23
gotten a little bit better with this, I still have the
33:25
agoraphobia issue. Yeah.
33:31
I've gotten a lot better at it though and my wife from time to
33:35
time will actually Take Me Out on a highway and I try to adapt
33:39
to it, but I do from time to time have the anxiety attack so
33:43
I got to be careful with that. If there were back roads all the
33:46
way there, that would work. I mean, you wouldn't be leaving
33:51
the South, you would just be driving deeper into the South.
33:54
So yeah, I think we could find a route that was all back roads
33:57
and maybe we could find some kind of van where we could black
34:00
out the windows and set you up with a computer and mobile Wi-Fi
34:03
in the back. I don't know, man.
34:07
I've seen those videos of those mountain believers saying people
34:10
get put in cans and buried on the compound and all that.
34:13
I don't know. You know, The thing is, is I've
34:16
been here so many times and I've never come across any of the
34:21
bizarre things that are claimed to have been here.
34:26
Well, I hear you there. I've seen a lot of videos of the
34:28
place and also seen videos where people visited and it looks
34:32
very, very peaceful and beautiful and all that.
34:35
So I don't know, I don't know where people get that.
34:38
Maybe it's at night time everybody turns into vampires or
34:41
something. Well, we do have an atheist
34:45
who's commenting, so we'll go ahead and give it some shout
34:49
out. It's Zachary and we are not all
34:52
jerks, guys just like you. If you start treating us poorly,
34:56
it's fair game how is different from your end.
34:59
So I'll let Brett answer this first, and then I'll go give it
35:02
a whack too. Well I I feel like his comment
35:07
was actually fair if he is going to be decent and respectful
35:11
right off the bat unless he's pushed or something.
35:14
That sounds fair. That's the way I am.
35:17
I'll be respectful until somebody pushes, so I am.
35:20
I'm impressed with that. Usually the atheist starts off
35:23
with the insults and initiates the fire.
35:27
All right, So I'll have to agree that that is a fair comment.
35:31
However, I would point out one thing just to chew on maybe
35:34
Zachary, and that is the the statistics for atheists who
35:40
troll Christian channels versus Christians who troll atheist
35:44
channels is way disproportionate.
35:48
There are a lot more nasty trolls on your side
35:51
unfortunately that that make YouTube heck for us.
35:56
Well, not just for. Not just for questions, but also
35:59
for I, I don't know if you've seen a while back, the Satanist
36:05
and the atheists were getting into it for a while there for
36:08
about a year. It was bad, real bad.
36:11
And then the Muslims and atheists have had a lot of
36:14
trouble. But I, I don't know what it is.
36:16
Most atheists usually try to treat Muslims nice.
36:19
It's probably because they're concerned about the whole
36:21
beheading thing. But besides that, they usually
36:25
give everybody trouble. All right, yeah, good fairpoint
36:30
there. That's an interesting point.
36:34
You know, not too long ago you had those shows where you were
36:37
engaging with the Satanist. Whatever happened to that?
36:42
Well, the, the guy, he was interesting enough and I thought
36:47
Christians would like the opportunity to be on a neutral
36:51
show where they could try to bring them over to Christ and
36:54
all that and sow seeds. But unfortunately, the head guy
36:58
of the Satanic group, he kept on over and over trying to
37:02
encourage me to join his, you know, Satanic club or whatever.
37:08
And I said, dude, I am totally for Jesus.
37:11
I'm totally for God. I know I come off friendly and
37:14
I'm a nice guy and all that, but don't get it twisted.
37:17
I am never going to join your, your satanic shiznit.
37:22
I said it in a little bit more rougher way than that, that he
37:25
could understand, but he basically stated, well, if
37:29
you're not going to join it, then I don't see why I should
37:32
talk to you. And I said, no, wait a minute,
37:34
you can't just hang out, talk, chill out.
37:38
I got to join your cult in order for you to be friendly to me.
37:41
That's that's kind of dumb. And he goes, yeah, that's the
37:45
way it is. And I said, and here you are
37:48
telling Christians that they push things on to people, and
37:52
you're doing that to me. That's not very nice.
37:56
True. Yeah.
37:58
Well, man, that kind of stinks. But now that you've patched
38:03
things up with TTOR, you know he's one of our hosts here.
38:05
Now, are you guys going to start collaborating again together?
38:10
Well, he's already emailed me back and forth a couple times
38:14
asking me if he could use some of my music for his church and
38:18
all that, and I told him he could use my music for pretty
38:21
much anything. And it goes for you as well.
38:24
I don't really consider what happened with me and TTOR and
38:28
even the incident with you. It was an aggravating day, but
38:32
it wasn't something like I turned off my computer and I
38:35
said I hate those shun of the biscuits, I'm never going to
38:39
talk to them again kind of thing.
38:41
Yeah, I think the reason why TTOR might think that I'm
38:44
angrier than what he imagined was because I literally left
38:48
YouTube come back for a while. OK, True.
38:53
Yeah, well, you should definitely invite him onto your
38:57
live panel. And I'm thinking about coming by
38:59
and seeing your live panel show too, because it's been a long
39:02
time since I've been on one with you.
39:05
Well, I don't know if we're going to get very many views
39:08
over there. Unfortunately.
39:11
The channel just started. I've got some subscribers and
39:14
all that, but I don't know who's going to join.
39:17
I have the same problem as you where non believers don't want
39:20
to come in. They don't want to have a
39:22
discussion. If they do come in, they usually
39:25
scream the N word or you know, that they want to do something
39:28
to my face or something. But I can't seem to get them to
39:32
stick around for 5 minutes no matter how nice I am.
39:36
Yeah, that does make it hard to do YouTube sometimes.
39:42
Well, we've got a pretty decent following and our traction with
39:47
our followers is picking up now, so that's all good.
39:50
And our shorts are starting to get attention, so hopefully
39:53
we're on an uphill climb. And you know, we can definitely
39:57
do more interviews with you and try to help plug all your stuff
40:00
and try to get your YouTube going again.
40:04
Well, I'd definitely be interested in working with you.
40:06
It is nice to see that there. You've got some nice atheist out
40:10
there and definitely a lot of decent religious folks.
40:14
Oof. It's hard to find in social
40:15
media man Oof. Would you ever consider doing
40:20
like a moderated debate? Well, I thought about it in the
40:25
past. I actually contacted that
40:28
standing for truth and I thought he and I got along pretty good
40:32
and I said, hey man, I wouldn't mind debating some of these non
40:36
believers and all that. And he goes, oh that's cool man.
40:39
I'll get set up sometime. So two months go by, I e-mail
40:45
him back. I'm like, hey man, you got
40:48
something set up for me. Oh man, I forgot.
40:50
I'm sorry. So I pretty much got the the
40:53
Blues clues that he wasn't really all that interested.
40:57
There was another group out there called Modern Day Debate.
41:00
Have you ever heard of that? I have.
41:03
Well, they actually reached out to me.
41:05
They invited me. So I went over to their channel
41:09
to look at what they got and I noticed that they, how shall I
41:13
say, the kind of tag teamed against the Christians.
41:16
And I realize, oh, I see how they're doing this, this they're
41:21
playing a game here for the atheist.
41:23
So I don't. If it's not a neutral
41:26
playground, I'm not going to it. OK, so I'll tell you what, I
41:32
have connections with Donnie from Standing for Truth, one of
41:36
my favorite YouTube channels on all of YouTube.
41:39
So you guys be sure to check out Standing for Truth and he has a
41:43
lot of atheists that do debates on his channel.
41:46
So I'll reach out to Donnie and ask if he knows any atheists
41:50
that would be willing to do a debate with you if you want.
41:53
And I'll moderate it on Proverbs guys.
41:58
Well, it's fine with me, but you know how I am with the way I do
42:02
my podcast and all that. I usually like to just try to
42:05
because if you say the word debate, it'll scare the hell out
42:08
of the atheists. They'll be like, oh, because
42:11
they don't like that whole that whole time thing and all this.
42:15
But if you say, look, if you want to come in and have a open
42:18
discussion, things like that, more than welcome to come in.
42:22
All you got to do is be friendly.
42:24
And we have kind of like a back and forth and all this.
42:27
That's cool. But just if you say debate, I
42:30
guarantee it's going to be right out the window.
42:34
And you want to do more of a one-on-one type of deal, right?
42:37
You don't want to open panel. No, I don't mind there being non
42:42
believers in if you know who they are, you've talked to them
42:45
before and you feel like they'll be respectful and friendly, then
42:48
I'll go along with what you're saying.
42:51
But if you bring in random people and they start screaming
42:54
the obscenities and all that, then, well, the patience level
42:58
and the tension deficit goes right out the window.
43:02
No, I mean, yeah, that's fair. Well, especially with some of
43:05
the ones you've attracted, you've had some of the nastiest
43:08
of the nasty. I can't count how many times
43:10
you've been pee bombed or how many times people have come on
43:14
and called you the N word. Oh yeah, I've seen so much
43:19
nudity and stuff, you'd think my channel should be called
43:21
Pornhub. It's horrible.
43:24
I mean, I don't know if it's that bad, but it you have been
43:28
bombed quite a bit, yeah. Well, not just bombed.
43:31
You got to understand that. It's like what we're doing in
43:34
here when people are backstage and stream yards.
43:37
The other guests can't see what's happening whenever
43:40
they're down below until you put them up on the screen.
43:43
Well, it used to be like that, I guess, and people would do all
43:47
kinds of nasty things down there.
43:49
I guess they thought they were being broadcasted.
43:51
But that's why I kicked a lot of people as they were showing off
43:55
their, you know, their goods. Yeah, well, one of the nastiest
44:01
trolls we ever picked up was AL from Canada.
44:06
You know who I'm talking about. And Al from Canada.
44:10
Well, his initials are AL and he was from Canada and he used to
44:14
hang around your channel a lot. And L from Canada.
44:23
I don't know, I had a lot of weirdos in my room then.
44:26
First name Aiden. Oh that guy, No, I would never
44:32
talk to that fellow. He's garbage.
44:34
What Grayson did to Ken Toven, that's basically what Aiden did
44:38
to me. And I treated him good.
44:40
I got him, sent a bunch of money to help him not get evicted from
44:44
his home and saved him and his girlfriend's life and the next
44:48
thing I know he's trolling me. So screw that guy.
44:52
Yeah, you and I are pretty much on the same page brother.
44:55
I never helped him out like that or anything.
44:57
But no, he just, he became a nasty YouTube troll.
45:01
I think he is an actual troll. Well, he, he was friendly at
45:06
first. I almost felt like he was almost
45:08
like a bro, you know, there was a, a close conversation going on
45:12
there. And this was before the whole,
45:15
I'm not going to mention full names, but the Mark thing and
45:19
all that stuff with Kent, me and him are getting along fine.
45:24
It seemed like. Well, what happens is is you
45:28
know, I, he starts telling me, man, I'm having it bad.
45:31
He says I'm disabled. And I don't know what to do
45:34
about money to save my house and all this.
45:36
And my girlfriend and I, I basically did an entire video
45:41
just for him, a show where I asked for people to donate money
45:45
to this guy. I made it clear he's an atheist
45:48
and they donated tons of money to him and saved his ass.
45:51
And then he turns around, goes over to Mark's channel and
45:54
starts rapping on me. It's hateful.
45:58
Yeah. And it's really uncalled for
46:01
because it sounds like you were really good to him and you guys
46:04
were really close for a long time.
46:05
So that was really bizarre. I cared about him, I cared about
46:11
him like a little brother and all that.
46:12
When he did that it, it did bring a tear to to my eye and
46:16
stuff to see such animosity and disgusting this.
46:20
That's why I just can't be around him anymore.
46:23
It's not because he's smart and clever and can say some zingers.
46:27
It's sad to see somebody that you care about just stick the
46:31
blade in. You get what I'm saying?
46:34
Yeah, I do. What about Adam Lord?
46:37
Do you still talk to Adam, Lord? I don't know if Adam Laura is
46:41
still alive or if he even exists anymore.
46:44
I was gone for a while and didn't receive any emails for
46:47
him. But I remember the last time I
46:49
talked to him, he told me several times he was having some
46:53
serious health issues. So I don't know.
46:56
I said, are they really? Are they?
46:58
I mean, I'll be talking life or death serious.
47:01
And he said yeah. So I haven't seen him since I've
47:04
been back. I hope he's OK.
47:09
Are you still close with any of the people that you had
47:12
relationships with from YouTube back from like 2020?
47:20
I, I don't, it's more of a with a lot of people, it's more of an
47:25
association type of thing. It's like they'll talk to you
47:29
when you do a live show or whatever, but they're not over
47:31
here having BBQ or anything with me.
47:35
Yeah, true. Yeah.
47:39
But do you think it's all of their faults or do you think
47:45
some of them just caught you on bad days?
47:49
I think some people caught me on a bad day, some I I think that
47:54
there are times where I make it clear when I'm talking about my
47:57
personal life. I deal with severe depression
48:00
and I also, some days I'm feeling really good and I can
48:03
take on the world, Other days just looking at me wrong.
48:07
The bad move. It is what it is.
48:11
I try to warn people about it, especially people I care about.
48:15
Yeah. Amen to that.
48:18
Well, Brett, do you want to go ahead and as we start wrapping
48:21
this up, do you want to plug your channels and tell people
48:25
where to find you, where to access you on your website, the
48:28
albums you have, albums you're working on?
48:31
Go ahead and plug your stuff. All right, well, if you look up
48:36
there, you'll see X, you know, Brett Keene show right there.
48:41
That's my my Twitter. They call it X now.
48:45
And you see yt.com/god TV radio. I only have one single channel
48:52
that is actually me, and that's the official one.
48:55
If you see any other channels where they're claiming to be
48:58
Brett Keene, it's most likely an atheist who's got some kind of
49:02
aquatic fetish. OK.
49:08
All right. And as far as the album you have
49:10
now, you said you have about 40 singles.
49:12
So are you going to be? Drawing 40 tracks that are up
49:17
there, people are able to actually buy digital copied
49:20
copies, but I got 20 songs actually on ACD that people can
49:25
get nowadays. Now is are all of these songs
49:29
coming from the mind of Brett Keene, or are you doing what a
49:33
lot of artists are doing now and incorporating the AI into it?
49:38
I've used some AI in order to clean up noise and use reduction
49:42
and all that. And also AI is very useful if
49:45
you perform the music and then you run it through an AI and
49:48
say, hey, I want it pumped up, I want it stronger.
49:52
And sometimes you could actually try to see what it would sound
49:55
like if it were to change the instrument to something else,
49:58
see if it's more clear. I have played around with AI.
50:02
It is neat. Need some more advancement
50:04
though in technology. Yeah, especially all the free
50:08
versions out there right now are pretty still shoddy, but some of
50:12
the paid versions that especially Christian YouTube
50:16
channels are taking advantage of is awesome stuff.
50:21
See that right there? That's the the CD case and shows
50:25
the desk and all that. That's all the imagery.
50:27
Just starting one CD alone. It's pretty nice, ain't it?
50:31
Yeah, it is. How long do you think it'll be
50:34
before AI puts musicians and artists, digital creators out of
50:39
business, out of jobs? Well, I think that AI is a is a
50:45
danger for humanity. Actually I watched a video
50:48
recently where some Asians were working on a robot and they
50:53
basically tried to give it feelings and emotion.
50:56
Well the thing realized that it was chained around the neck, it
51:00
didn't like it and it began trying to RIP itself from their
51:04
thing that was holding it and started swinging at the
51:07
scientist. So I think it's a a bad idea.
51:11
But it's not just dangerous to put AI into a robot or a machine
51:14
where it actually is a physical body to beat you up with.
51:18
It's also dangerous because of the thing connects to the
51:21
Internet like rock over an X and the thing starts getting into
51:26
all the knowledge bases. It could lock up people's
51:29
computers, it could activate weaponry, do a lot of stuff.
51:32
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I am talking Skynet here.
51:36
Terminator Business. That is scary stuff, and that's
51:41
my fear too. So that's probably where we're
51:44
headed. Well, all right, I want all of
51:46
you guys to go show some Love to GOD TV Radio.
51:50
Go check out some of Brett's music and support his content.
51:54
If you haven't ever heard him talk before, he has the voice of
51:58
a podcasting Angel. His voice was made for YouTube
52:01
podcasting and that's probably because every YouTube podcaster,
52:05
whether they know it or not, came from the inspiration of
52:08
Brett King. So even though you may not have
52:11
ever heard of him, or maybe you have, he deserves a bigger place
52:15
in YouTube history than what he currently got.
52:19
Same for you there, guy. Yeah.
52:22
I appreciate it. Well, I'm going to wrap this up,
52:25
but I'm going to put us backstage, Brett, and we're
52:28
going to play your song again while we're backstage.
52:31
And if you look just where you see the screen in the top left
52:36
corner, there's a little speaker.
52:39
And if you push that, you and I won't hear the music.
52:43
And we can talk backstage while I'm playing this song.
52:46
Oh, I see a speaker up there. Sure.
53:06
I watch you walk these empty halls, talking to the barren
53:13
walls. You wear the paper crown.
53:17
So proud speaking to an absent crowd.
53:30
Your eyes don't see what's real anymore.
53:38
You're drifting further from the show.
53:43
I see you slipping through my head, making castles in the
53:51
sand. You're dancing with the morning
53:54
lights, facing fishes in the night.
54:03
You tell me stories of your throne of kingdoms that you rule
54:09
alone, but all I see is an empty chair and bitter words that fill
54:17
the. Air.
54:27
I see you slipping through my head, making castles in the
54:32
sand. You're dancing with the morning
54:39
light, chasing visions in the night.
54:43
Can't you hear me calling out? Can't you see beyond your doubt
54:52
everything you think you are? It's just a lie you've always
54:58
known. See you slipping through my
55:18
hands, making castles in the sand you're dancing with.
55:22
Come on in your life Chasing visions in the night.
55:39
The crowd is falling from your head.
55:44
The kingdom's only in your head. I wish that you could understand
55:52
some leave the snow well and.
