- 0:28Speaker 3: Well, Hello, everybody, welcome to the Tom Stearns Radio Show.
- 0:32Speaker 3: Great to have you with us today. My goodness, this
- 0:37Speaker 3: has really been one of those weeks where a lot
- 0:41Speaker 3: of a lot of big stories are happening, and we're
- 0:43Speaker 3: going to try our very best today to get to
- 0:45Speaker 3: all of them. By the way, right down our telephone number.
- 0:48Speaker 3: You will need this if you plan on calling into
- 0:51Speaker 3: the program today. That number nine oh one two six
- 0:55Speaker 3: zero five nine two six. Again, that number nine oh
- 0:58Speaker 3: one two six zero z row five nine two six,
- 1:02Speaker 3: and we'll be getting to your calls. So late yesterday
- 1:06Speaker 3: we got word that the verdict had been reached in
- 1:10Speaker 3: the in the Carmelo Anthony trial and he was found guilty.
- 1:16Speaker 3: It was a unanimous verdict and the thirty five years
- 1:19Speaker 3: in prison that was the that was the penalty. That's
- 1:23Speaker 3: the price that Carmelo Anthony is going to have to
- 1:26Speaker 3: pay for stabbing a seventeen year old boy. Today the
- 1:31Speaker 3: Austin Metcap Now we were talking about this last tight
- 1:35Speaker 3: on newsbacks that I wanted to. I wanted to have
- 1:38Speaker 3: a little conversation. I was getting a little testy with
- 1:41Speaker 3: one of our guests during the show yesterday, and the
- 1:44Speaker 3: reason why is, you know, the guy was coming right
- 1:46Speaker 3: out of the gate and I was like, well, you know,
- 1:48Speaker 3: this really isn't about race, and we should make it
- 1:50Speaker 3: about race, and you know, we should be conciliatory. And look,
- 1:55Speaker 3: the reality of it is, this is all about race.
- 1:59Speaker 3: I mean it shouldn't be, but it is. When you've
- 2:01Speaker 3: got people out there saying that the only good cracker
- 2:05Speaker 3: is a dead cracker. When you've got people chanting blank
- 2:09Speaker 3: white people, you can't help but understand this is all
- 2:13Speaker 3: about race. And there are a lot of people in
- 2:17Speaker 3: the idle of the conservative media world and they just
- 2:20Speaker 3: they get so freaked out over the race issue. We
- 2:23Speaker 3: don't get freaked out here because for me, it really
- 2:26Speaker 3: is impart in the expression here. It really is a
- 2:28Speaker 3: black and white issue for me. Now, the reality is
- 2:32Speaker 3: that we're all mating God's image, right. That's what we
- 2:35Speaker 3: used to sing in the little Baptist church that I
- 2:37Speaker 3: grew up in. We used to sing a song in
- 2:39Speaker 3: Sunday School. Maybe you sang the song too. Jesus loves
- 2:44Speaker 3: all the little children, all the children of the world, red, yellow, black, white,
- 2:48Speaker 3: They are precious in his sight. Jesus loves the little
- 2:51Speaker 3: children of the world. I mean that's that is a
- 2:54Speaker 3: very central truth, that we are all created in God's image.
- 2:59Speaker 3: And yet critical race theory has done this to our nation.
- 3:03Speaker 3: The critical race theory has infected our culture. And I
- 3:09Speaker 3: blame Barack Hussein Obama for this. As a matter of fact,
- 3:12Speaker 3: I do it in writing in my book The Golden Age.
- 3:16Speaker 3: And we're going to be taking your calls on this
- 3:19Speaker 3: through the show today because we've got to talk about this.
- 3:23Speaker 3: But there are people outside of that courtroom and even
- 3:26Speaker 3: the parents of Carmelo Anthony, who believe that Austin Metcalf
- 3:31Speaker 3: got what he deserved. And the irony here is one
- 3:34Speaker 3: of the most powerful witnesses in this case, and I
- 3:38Speaker 3: did follow the case. One of the most powerful witnesses
- 3:41Speaker 3: in the case happened to be a witness for the defense.
- 3:44Speaker 3: Fifteen times. Fifteen times Carmelo Anthony was told to get
- 3:48Speaker 3: out of that tenth, that he had no business being
- 3:50Speaker 3: in the ten. And if you're in cross country. If
- 3:52Speaker 3: you're in if you've run track, you know that the
- 3:56Speaker 3: tents for the teams are sort of like they're sacred areas,
- 3:59Speaker 3: they're temple for people. And when he was told and
- 4:04Speaker 3: by the way, Carmelo Anthony had no business being there.
- 4:08Speaker 3: He also was not allowed to have any weapon on
- 4:12Speaker 3: him one school property, and he did so. The testimony
- 4:17Speaker 3: really was damning against Carmelo, which is why the verdict
- 4:22Speaker 3: came back, came back guilty and it was unanimous. Got
- 4:25Speaker 3: number two plays.
- 4:27Speaker 4: Courtroom jurors heard more emotional testimony about what happened the
- 4:31Speaker 4: day Austin Metcalf was killed. Yesterday, Metcalf's track coach, Rob
- 4:36Speaker 4: Starr took the stand and he said each school's team
- 4:39Speaker 4: tint is considered its own space at a track meet.
- 4:43Speaker 4: It's a big deal for athletes from other schools to
- 4:46Speaker 4: go into another team's tint like a locker room. Today,
- 4:50Speaker 4: one of Metcalf's teammates, testifying, several people told Carmelo Anthony,
- 4:56Speaker 4: you probably shouldn't be here, you need to leave our tint.
- 4:59Speaker 4: Anthony was told to leave around fifteen times. He says
- 5:03Speaker 4: no one tried to gang up on Anthony, telling the jury.
- 5:06Speaker 4: They originally tried calmly to ask him to leave. He
- 5:10Speaker 4: described the situation as quote minor pushing at most, but
- 5:14Speaker 4: from there things escalated. The teammate say Anthony and Metcalf
- 5:17Speaker 4: were both angry, and that's when he says, Anthony told Metcalf,
- 5:21Speaker 4: with his hands in his backpack, touch me and find out.
- 5:25Speaker 4: That teammate testified the Metcalf pushed Anthony and then Anthony
- 5:29Speaker 4: stabbed him. He says he then heard Metcalf say, oh
- 5:33Speaker 4: my god. Another teammate also took the stand, and when
- 5:36Speaker 4: asked whether it looked like Metcalf was trying to pick
- 5:39Speaker 4: a fight, he said no. When asked about the same situation,
- 5:44Speaker 4: if Anthony was trying to pick a fight, he said yes.
- 5:48Speaker 4: When asked if what he saw looked like self defense,
- 5:51Speaker 4: he answered no, Sir, Jurors today also hearing from the
- 5:56Speaker 4: officer who arrested Anthony, Frisco School Resource officer Eduardo Cortes
- 6:01Speaker 4: testified he radioed other officers telling them he had the
- 6:05Speaker 4: alleged suspect in custody.
- 6:07Speaker 3: Okay, that's a so, that's that's the gist of it there. So,
- 6:10Speaker 3: and by the way, you had black teammates that were
- 6:13Speaker 3: testifying against against Carmelo Anthony here. So it was never
- 6:18Speaker 3: about race, but it was always about race. And now
- 6:21Speaker 3: they're saying, well, it was an illegitimate verdict because the
- 6:24Speaker 3: jury was all white. Again, the facts are the facts,
- 6:28Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen. Let's go to the phones. We're going
- 6:31Speaker 3: to try to work at as many calls today as
- 6:33Speaker 3: possible on this.
- 6:34Speaker 5: This is a.
- 6:34Speaker 3: Story that the entire nation is talking about, and we're
- 6:37Speaker 3: going to talk about it today. Nine oh one two
- 6:39Speaker 3: six zero five, nine two six. Do you think the
- 6:41Speaker 3: verdict was Do you think the verdict and the punishment
- 6:45Speaker 3: was fair?
- 6:45Speaker 6: Here?
- 6:46Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 6:49Speaker 3: Let's go to Memphis, Tennessee. Brock is listening to us
- 6:52Speaker 3: on KWAM, our flagship radio station. Hi, Brock, what's on
- 6:56Speaker 3: your mind today?
- 6:58Speaker 7: I just want to point out, uh, what we're gonna
- 7:01Speaker 7: call it, the the craziness of the left wing whatever
- 7:06Speaker 7: activist communist movement, they did nothing nationwide. Was that fella
- 7:11Speaker 7: got beat to death here in Memphis. Didn't fit the
- 7:13Speaker 7: narrative when all the police was named Kyrie Nichols, Is
- 7:17Speaker 7: that his name?
- 7:18Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 7:18Speaker 3: But yeah, but we're not talking about that, we're talking
- 7:21Speaker 3: about what happened out in Texas.
- 7:22Speaker 7: Yeah, I know that, but that didn't fit the narrative.
- 7:25Speaker 7: So now they run with this. So that's just all
- 7:28Speaker 7: I got to say. You know, it's just it's cracky,
- 7:30Speaker 7: it's foolishness in my opinions, you know what's going on.
- 7:34Speaker 7: They had all they wanted with that, but they don't
- 7:36Speaker 7: pick that story. They picked this one.
- 7:38Speaker 3: But again, going back to the Texas story, though, do
- 7:41Speaker 3: you think that was a fair decision that they reached
- 7:43Speaker 3: based on what you know about the case.
- 7:46Speaker 7: They're just walking around common sense. Yeah, you know that.
- 7:51Speaker 7: You don't have to be a rocket scientists to figure
- 7:53Speaker 7: that one out.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Rocket.
- 7:56Speaker 7: But I'm just saying, I'm just saying how they cherry
- 7:58Speaker 7: picked these issues?
- 8:00Speaker 3: Well, they do, and the reality of it is this,
- 8:03Speaker 3: And they've been trying to compare this to George Floyd,
- 8:07Speaker 3: which there is no comparison, or Trayvon Martin, which again
- 8:10Speaker 3: there is no comparison here. But the thing that concerns
- 8:14Speaker 3: me is that there is. Now they're trying to justify
- 8:18Speaker 3: killing any white person in America simply because they're a
- 8:21Speaker 3: white person, and the media is buying all of this, Brock.
- 8:24Speaker 3: The media. The media actually believes in the critical race
- 8:28Speaker 3: theory idea that all white people are oppressors and therefore
- 8:33Speaker 3: the white people in America get they deserve what they get.
- 8:36Speaker 3: I mean, that's the gist of critical race theory right there.
- 8:40Speaker 7: Oh, that's worldwide. They found that out in Ireland. The
- 8:43Speaker 7: world is watching.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Well said, and we'll get to the Ireland story. That's
- 8:47Speaker 3: a that's another crazy story. We're going to get to
- 8:49Speaker 3: that a little bit later on the program. Brock, it's
- 8:52Speaker 3: great comments to start off the show today. Thank you
- 8:54Speaker 3: for calling in again our number nine oh one two
- 8:57Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. And so you've got
- 9:01Speaker 3: the black panthers out there. It was insane in Frisco,
- 9:06Speaker 3: Texas yesterday and I'm wondering how many people actually there
- 9:10Speaker 3: lived in Texas or where these people, you know, where
- 9:13Speaker 3: they shuttled in. There's actually a guy who is now
- 9:18Speaker 3: threatening to attack any white person in Texas. Cut number

- 10:19Speaker 3: America that's not afraid to talk about the big issues
- 10:21Speaker 3: of the day. And I'm telling you this is a
- 10:24Speaker 3: big problem, big problem in our country right now. And
- 10:28Speaker 3: by the way, the whole Black Lives Matter, critical race theory,
- 10:32Speaker 3: all that movement, you know who suffers the most at all,
- 10:35Speaker 3: it's the black community. Black on black crime is insane.
- 10:39Speaker 3: Nobody wants to talk about the black victims of black
- 10:41Speaker 3: crime because that's the largest demographic that is under attack
- 10:46Speaker 3: right now. But the idea that you can get out
- 10:50Speaker 3: there and you can attack somebody just for the color
- 10:54Speaker 3: of their skin, that's just absolutely absurd. Nine oh one
- 10:58Speaker 3: two six zero five, Nini are telephone over. That's nine

- 11:55Speaker 11: black jury?
- 11:56Speaker 2: Limo has it?
- 11:57Speaker 11: This is what we have yea camut cut. You know
- 12:02Speaker 11: what whatelse?
- 12:03Speaker 12: The verdict is.
- 12:04Speaker 9: He got justice because he got.
- 12:07Speaker 5: To go to for a jury of six.
- 12:09Speaker 10: As it's gonna be sitting very much.
- 12:12Speaker 11: We got to say no, okay, we don't keep us right.
- 12:17Speaker 13: You know what.
- 12:21Speaker 11: Exactly, come out stuffs. See why this I know this
- 12:26Speaker 11: is a wall.
- 12:28Speaker 2: This is a war.
- 12:30Speaker 14: This isn't a war.
- 12:32Speaker 11: It has been going on.
- 12:34Speaker 2: This w been going on.
- 12:36Speaker 3: They never stop being all right enough enough. So look
- 12:42Speaker 3: you heard them say that it's a war, and this
- 12:44Speaker 3: is the black panthers, and uh, they are a very
- 12:47Speaker 3: violent group and they do not like white folks. They
- 12:51Speaker 3: just don't. But again, you're being taught in the media.
- 12:55Speaker 3: You're being taught on TV shows coming out of Hollywood.
- 12:58Speaker 3: The Democrats, they're all telling the world that the white
- 13:02Speaker 3: white people in America that were the problems, when in fact,
- 13:04Speaker 3: we are not the problem and we haven't been the problem.
- 13:10Speaker 3: One of the challenges, though, is that you've got a
- 13:13Speaker 3: lot of white Republicans and they're afraid to push back
- 13:15Speaker 3: on this. Our Republican lawmakers are afraid to push back
- 13:19Speaker 3: on this because this is the third rail. Nobody wants
- 13:22Speaker 3: to talk about this, and so therefore the narrative begins
- 13:25Speaker 3: to stick and all of this begins to fester. As
- 13:30Speaker 3: a matter of fact, I want you to hear I
- 13:33Speaker 3: want you to hear Jasmine Crockett, And here's how she
- 13:37Speaker 3: is framing this. You know, she's still in Congress and
- 13:39Speaker 3: she is from Texas. Cut number twenty two plays.
- 13:43Speaker 15: Black women, especially black women who have black male children,
- 13:52Speaker 15: live in fear in agony every single day, a fear
- 13:57Speaker 15: in agony that I promise you the Metcalfs probably never
- 14:03Speaker 15: spend a day living that way. And we're gonna have
- 14:07Speaker 15: to have just some real conversations about raised in this country.
- 14:10Speaker 3: You know, you never want to tell somebody to go
- 14:12Speaker 3: to hell, But Jasmin Crockett, you go to hell. Who
- 14:15Speaker 3: do you think you are? Who do you think you are?
- 14:18Speaker 3: To say the metcalf family hasn't felt pain, hasn't felt suffering.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Their son was stabbed to death at a track meet.
- 14:29Speaker 3: His twin watched his brother bleed out on the bleachers.
- 14:34Speaker 3: And this is who Jasmin Crockett is. Cut number twenty one.
- 14:37Speaker 15: If a three hundred pound man is beating me, like
- 14:41Speaker 15: on top of me and beating me down, I'm.
- 14:45Speaker 4: Not limited to fist.
- 14:48Speaker 15: You know, I would argue that even the only time
- 14:51Speaker 15: we go into things like people's hands being considered daily
- 14:54Speaker 15: weapons is typically like if they're a professional boxer or
- 14:58Speaker 15: that kind of stuff. But I think by the time
- 15:00Speaker 15: time you start getting to like football player, good argument,
- 15:04Speaker 15: good freaking argument. We're not talking about like the golfers.
- 15:08Speaker 15: We're talking about football players, right, Like. This is what
- 15:12Speaker 15: they are trained to do, is to inflict like serious
- 15:15Speaker 15: physical content.
- 15:17Speaker 3: So she's justifying. That's Jasmine Crockett justifying the stabbing of
- 15:23Speaker 3: Austin Metcalf. This is who these people really are, all right,
- 15:27Speaker 3: we gotta take a break here opening up the phone lines.
- 15:29Speaker 3: Do you think that the verdict and the punishment was
- 15:32Speaker 3: fair here nine oh one two six zero five nine
- 15:35Speaker 3: two six or a number that's nine oh one two
- 15:37Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd
- 15:40Speaker 3: Sterns Show.
- 15:41Speaker 8: Hey, guys, quick, heads up. This is actually a big one.
- 15:44Speaker 8: We're saying goodbye to something that's helped thousands of families
- 15:47Speaker 8: over the years. The Patriot Power Generator, one of the
- 15:50Speaker 8: best selling solar generators of twenty twenty five, is officially
- 15:54Speaker 8: being retired. And the reason they've just released something even better.
- 15:58Speaker 8: It's called the Patriot Power Generator two two zero zero
- 16:02Speaker 8: X and this is their most powerful model yet. It's
- 16:06Speaker 8: built for real life situations, storms, outages, emergencies when you
- 16:10Speaker 8: need power the most to launch it, they're doing something
- 16:13Speaker 8: pretty crazy right now. You can get five hundred dollars
- 16:16Speaker 8: off the generator. Plus they're including two free solar panels,
- 16:20Speaker 8: so you can double your charging power right out of
- 16:22Speaker 8: the box. They're also throwing in a heavy duty roll
- 16:26Speaker 8: in go kart an extended three year warranty, and if
- 16:29Speaker 8: you're a senior or a veteran, you can save an
- 16:31Speaker 8: additional two hundred dollars. And here's the part that really
- 16:35Speaker 8: stands out, because they offer a payment plan. You can
- 16:38Speaker 8: get started today for just two hundred ninety nine dollars
- 16:42Speaker 8: and its ships as soon as tomorrow. But this is
- 16:45Speaker 8: a limited launch offer. It's first come, first served, and
- 16:48Speaker 8: these kinds of deals don't stick around, especially with how
- 16:52Speaker 8: unpredictable power outages have been lately. So if you've ever
- 16:55Speaker 8: thought about having backup power for your home, now's the
- 16:58Speaker 8: time to do it. Stay safe, stay prepared, and don't
- 17:01Speaker 8: wait until the lights go out. Go to starnsprepper dot
- 17:04Speaker 8: com right now to take advantage of this limited time offer.
- 17:26Speaker 16: Cracker only good.
- 17:28Speaker 13: Cock Crack, Holy good Cracker is good tackle, Holy good crash.
- 17:44Speaker 3: All right, welcome back everybody. This is the Tom Stern Show.
- 17:47Speaker 3: Just some of the some of the things that were
- 17:50Speaker 3: being chanted outside of this courthouse yesterday in Collin County, Texas, Frisco, Texas.
- 17:58Speaker 3: I want to play some audio from Dominique Alexander, who
- 18:02Speaker 3: is the spokesman for Carmelo Anthony's family. A cut number
- 18:07Speaker 3: twenty five place.
- 18:09Speaker 16: Not one black soul on a truth.
- 18:12Speaker 2: On his wife.
- 18:15Speaker 16: An all small white jury convicted him in two to
- 18:22Speaker 16: three hours. We know that they did not prove their case.
- 18:29Speaker 16: Wait to say, there came Anthony, but we note that
- 18:35Speaker 16: the Next Generation Action Network put the first ten thousand
- 18:39Speaker 16: dollars towards in the pillow attorney and we won't fight
- 18:42Speaker 16: colin cownings like him. I respected this process, I allowed
- 18:50Speaker 16: and called for peace in this process.
- 18:52Speaker 5: Shut see where that got us.
- 18:54Speaker 3: Yeah, so you sort of see where all of this
- 18:58Speaker 3: is going. We will see if there's any sort of
- 19:01Speaker 3: an appeal here. But again, as it now stands, this
- 19:05Speaker 3: guy going to prison for thirty five years. Here's my
- 19:07Speaker 3: problem with all of this. The sentencing is between five
- 19:11Speaker 3: years and ninety nine years, and for me personally, I
- 19:15Speaker 3: think we needed to send a strong message here. I
- 19:18Speaker 3: think that kid needs to be in jail for ninety
- 19:20Speaker 3: nine years. He should have gotten the full penalty under
- 19:24Speaker 3: the weight of the law. That is the only way
- 19:26Speaker 3: we're going to stop this sort of outrageous violence. But again,
- 19:30Speaker 3: going back to critical race theory, what does critical race
- 19:33Speaker 3: theory say that the white people in America are the
- 19:37Speaker 3: oppressors and the black people are the oppressed. This guy
- 19:42Speaker 3: did not have a tent. I guess he wanted a
- 19:44Speaker 3: tent and so he took it, even if that meant
- 19:46Speaker 3: killing somebody. All Right, we've got to take a break here, folks.
- 19:49Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five dining two six.
- 19:52Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five ne two six.
- 19:55Speaker 3: Congressman Chip Roy coming up next.
- 20:08Speaker 17: How many extremists Islamic groups do you have of the
- 20:10Speaker 17: fifteen hundred or so organizations you have in your hate map?
- 20:14Speaker 18: Again, anyone can go to our website.
- 20:17Speaker 17: I officuely have been looking over it and can't really
- 20:18Speaker 17: find one.
- 20:21Speaker 18: Again, it is the SPLCS.
- 20:24Speaker 17: The SBLC can provide us a list of the is
- 20:27Speaker 17: the Islamic oriented groups do you have in your hate map?
- 20:30Speaker 18: Mister right, we don't target any group because of its religion. Really,
- 20:35Speaker 18: I want to be clear about that. Really, yes, that's
- 20:37Speaker 18: exactly right. We target no group because of its religion.
- 20:40Speaker 18: We target groups because they express statements and engage in
- 20:46Speaker 18: activities that demean and villain.
- 20:49Speaker 17: You brought up LGBTQ groups. So you brought up lgbt
- 20:53Speaker 17: groups a minute ago. So you think there's a bunch
- 20:54Speaker 17: of Islamic groups that are pro LGBTQ. Is that the
- 20:57Speaker 17: position of the SPLC. I just want to make sure
- 21:00Speaker 17: the record is reflecting that.
- 21:03Speaker 3: All right, there you go. That was Congressman Chip Roy
- 21:06Speaker 3: yesterday at this really incredibly insane hearing involving the Southern
- 21:13Speaker 3: Poverty Law Center and the Congressman grilling the Southern Poverty
- 21:17Speaker 3: Law Center for targeting groups like Family Research Council and
- 21:22Speaker 3: turning Point USA while turning a blind eye to groups
- 21:25Speaker 3: that are actually out there committing very dangerous crimes and
- 21:29Speaker 3: hate crimes across America. Well, we're honored to welcome to
- 21:33Speaker 3: the program on our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line, Congressman ship Roy. Congressman,
- 21:38Speaker 3: hope you're doing well, Todd.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Great to be with you.
- 21:41Speaker 3: I'm doing great. Congressman, you kicked butt yesterday. Really I don't.
- 21:46Speaker 3: It was really brilliant your line of questioning, and I
- 21:48Speaker 3: think you did just a remarkable job exposing the SBLC
- 21:52Speaker 3: for who and what they really are.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Well thank you for that.
- 21:57Speaker 17: I mean, look, they make it easy because they're so
- 21:59Speaker 17: part Artistan and is so obvious in what they're doing,
- 22:02Speaker 17: and frankly, they have no shame. I appreciate Jim Jordan
- 22:07Speaker 17: calling this hearing. You know, I held a hearing in
- 22:09Speaker 17: the Subcommittee on the Constitution, which I chair, back in
- 22:12Speaker 17: I think December from memory, and Tony Perkins testified. We
- 22:17Speaker 17: had testimony from TPUSA, another great guy named Tyler O'Neil
- 22:22Speaker 17: who's done a lot of research on this, and the
- 22:24Speaker 17: purpose was to start exposing this kind of vast network
- 22:27Speaker 17: of the leftists, these Marxist organizations that are undermining our
- 22:30Speaker 17: freedom and targeting Americans who believe in God, believe in country,
- 22:35Speaker 17: believe in freedom. And SBLC is obviously at the top
- 22:38Speaker 17: of that list. So I was glad to see this hearing.
- 22:41Speaker 17: We were able to expose a lot. I think the
- 22:43Speaker 17: American people had their eyes open. I'm filing legislation today
- 22:47Speaker 17: to take away their tax status. I had intended to
- 22:50Speaker 17: do that. In factually, I thought it already existed. I
- 22:52Speaker 17: filed the bill to take Care's tax status away for
- 22:55Speaker 17: what they do with associating with terrorists with respect to Islam.
- 22:59Speaker 17: So now we're going to produced this on SBLC today.
- 23:03Speaker 17: They've done such a great disservice to the roots in
- 23:06Speaker 17: the civil rights movement. Obviously you had doctor Martin Luther
- 23:09Speaker 17: King's niece testifying yesterday.
- 23:11Speaker 2: She did a fabulous job taking Democrats.
- 23:14Speaker 17: You know, they've moved so far away from the core
- 23:17Speaker 17: mission of what doctor King was trying to accomplish, so
- 23:20Speaker 17: that we're not judging people by the color of their skin,
- 23:23Speaker 17: and that were treating everybody equally as opposed to advancing
- 23:26Speaker 17: gain Marx's leftist mission. So glad to expose it, and
- 23:28Speaker 17: I think we were able to do that yesterday.
- 23:30Speaker 3: The question is, you know, will ultimately they be held accountable.
- 23:34Speaker 3: I know that the grand jury indictment, there will be trials.
- 23:37Speaker 3: Do you think at the end of the day they're
- 23:38Speaker 3: going to be held accountable for what they have inflicted
- 23:42Speaker 3: on the conservative movement in America?
- 23:44Speaker 2: Well, I certainly hope.
- 23:46Speaker 17: So I think, you know, they're multiple ways to hold
- 23:48Speaker 17: them accountable.
- 23:49Speaker 2: The Department of Justice.
- 23:50Speaker 17: Is obviously pursuing the indictment, and they have their superseding indictment,
- 23:54Speaker 17: and there, you know, we'll see how that works out.
- 23:56Speaker 17: I'm a former federal prosecutor, so you can't predict anything.
- 23:59Speaker 17: I don't have the fun in front of me as
- 24:01Speaker 17: the prosecutor. But what we know, we've seen alleged in
- 24:03Speaker 17: the indictment, and they were able to get the indictment.
- 24:07Speaker 17: That tells me that they've got a pretty good case.
- 24:09Speaker 17: And so I hope that they'll carry that forward. I
- 24:11Speaker 17: hope that there will be justice. I hope they don't
- 24:14Speaker 17: just slap them on the wrist. I think they need
- 24:16Speaker 17: to pursue it hard. But Congress needs to engage as well.
- 24:19Speaker 17: That's why we should take away tax status. That's why
- 24:22Speaker 17: we should continue to expose not just SPLC, but all
- 24:26Speaker 17: of these entities, the same groups that are involved with them.
- 24:29Speaker 17: They're pushing these das and these judges that are putting
- 24:32Speaker 17: criminals on our streets. Soros funded Arabella, They're rent collective.
- 24:36Speaker 17: If you don't know what these groups are, you should listeners,
- 24:39Speaker 17: because this is the groups that are funding these these
- 24:42Speaker 17: leftists that are putting criminals on your streets in Austin, Texas, Dallas, Houston,
- 24:45Speaker 17: but all over the country. So that's a group, the
- 24:48Speaker 17: Islamist movement. That's an organized group that is well funded.
- 24:51Speaker 17: There are six hundred organizations operating across the country pushing
- 24:55Speaker 17: the Islamic Islamification of our country, and we've got to
- 24:59Speaker 17: stop it. And uh, look, I'm not going to back
- 25:01Speaker 17: down on this stuff. This is our country and we've
- 25:03Speaker 17: got to defend.
- 25:03Speaker 3: It, you know, Congressman, And we've got a couple of
- 25:05Speaker 3: topics to talk about it, but I want to I
- 25:07Speaker 3: want to ask you about that as lomification because it
- 25:09Speaker 3: seems to really be an issue in your state of Texas,
- 25:13Speaker 3: which I think has shocked a lot of people. What
- 25:15Speaker 3: is going on there? Is there is there a concerted
- 25:18Speaker 3: effort to bring so many Islamists to the state of
- 25:22Speaker 3: Texas or is it just a coincidence?
- 25:26Speaker 2: So I believe it's multi factored.
- 25:28Speaker 17: Number one, Uh, there is a push by Islamist to
- 25:33Speaker 17: flood the zone in America, particularly the crown jewel of
- 25:36Speaker 17: our great nation, the great state of Texas. They're doing
- 25:39Speaker 17: it heavily in the Dallas warth metroplex. It's been going
- 25:42Speaker 17: on for now several decades. You will remember Todd, the
- 25:46Speaker 17: Holy Land Foundation case dating back twenty five years ago,
- 25:49Speaker 17: and the co con Spirit, the Undided Coconspirit that's now
- 25:52Speaker 17: affiliated with CARE. This is a network that has been
- 25:55Speaker 17: growing and taking root for a long time. So one
- 25:58Speaker 17: factor is the push they want to infiltrate America. They
- 26:03Speaker 17: want to take over our country, just as they're doing
- 26:05Speaker 17: the United Kingdom, just as they're doing in Paris, in London,
- 26:09Speaker 17: I mean on Paris and France. The second thing is
- 26:12Speaker 17: I would call it the over deference to corporate America.
- 26:15Speaker 2: In our country.
- 26:16Speaker 17: As Republicans, we allow corporate boardrooms and bottom lines, cheap labor,
- 26:22Speaker 17: H one B visas, academic institutions claiming student visas. We
- 26:27Speaker 17: allow them to flood the zone with all these foreigners
- 26:30Speaker 17: that are completely changing the culture of our country. So
- 26:32Speaker 17: if you take an Islamic movement that has a mission
- 26:34Speaker 17: to take over our country, you marry it with corporate boardrooms.
- 26:37Speaker 17: You don't give a crap about our culture and only
- 26:39Speaker 17: care about the bottom line, and they're not invested in
- 26:42Speaker 17: our communities in Texas. And you add all that together,
- 26:46Speaker 17: then you've got a real problem and then you allow
- 26:48Speaker 17: them to hide behind the First Amendment while they're advancing
- 26:51Speaker 17: a political ideology, which is what Islam is, to undermine
- 26:56Speaker 17: our freedom. So they're using our own protections for our
- 27:00Speaker 17: real considered faith of Christianity and what we believe to
- 27:03Speaker 17: protect us from government overreach. They're hiding behind that to
- 27:07Speaker 17: advance the political ideology to take over our country. That's
- 27:10Speaker 17: the perfect storm we're dealing with.
- 27:12Speaker 3: And to that point, Congressman, you're doing something about this,
- 27:15Speaker 3: these really egregious H one B VISA abuses, and you
- 27:20Speaker 3: have introduced legislation that would protect white collar jobs here
- 27:25Speaker 3: in the United States of America. Tell our listeners about that.
- 27:29Speaker 17: Yeah, I want to want to take sole credit. I've
- 27:32Speaker 17: got several friends that have introduced good bills. My friend
- 27:34Speaker 17: Eli Crane from Arizona's got a good bill I've co sponsored,
- 27:37Speaker 17: and there's a few that are out there. We took
- 27:39Speaker 17: a slightly different approach where we wanted to focus in on.
- 27:41Speaker 2: First of all, let me back up. We need to
- 27:43Speaker 2: pause all immigration.
- 27:45Speaker 17: So I introduced a bill last fall to pause immigration
- 27:47Speaker 17: until we sort out our system.
- 27:49Speaker 2: So that's step one pause.
- 27:51Speaker 17: But I did introduce legislation to target h one bs
- 27:54Speaker 17: that is designed to call out the scams and the fraud.
- 27:58Speaker 2: It's saying, if.
- 27:58Speaker 17: You've laid anybody off in the last year, you can't
- 28:02Speaker 17: go down the road of H one b's. It's going
- 28:04Speaker 17: down and saying you don't use a lottery system. You've
- 28:07Speaker 17: got to put forward wage based, skill based programmatic needs
- 28:11Speaker 17: so you can vet to say, wait a second, I
- 28:13Speaker 17: get it. If you're a hospital and you're going, gosh,
- 28:16Speaker 17: we really need a hard surgeon, we don't have one,
- 28:19Speaker 17: and there's this guy one guy in Pick your Country
- 28:22Speaker 17: abroad and we want that guy here. Okay, I get it.
- 28:25Speaker 17: I understand. It's like we have a need, a specific
- 28:28Speaker 17: need we cannot fill locally. Okay, but that's not what
- 28:31Speaker 17: they're doing. They're gaming and scamming the system, and they're
- 28:35Speaker 17: doing it to get cheap labor, flooding the zone. And
- 28:38Speaker 17: Sarah Gonzalez with The Blaze has done a lot of
- 28:40Speaker 17: great reporting on this about what they've been doing in
- 28:42Speaker 17: Dallas for worth. Now that we're cracking down on it
- 28:45Speaker 17: a little bit, finally, housing prices are dropping down a
- 28:48Speaker 17: little bit because we're pushing back on how many people
- 28:51Speaker 17: have come to our country from all over the world,
- 28:53Speaker 17: by the way, including Muslims, but also obviously a lot
- 28:56Speaker 17: from India and Pakistan and for all over the world.
- 28:58Speaker 17: So at the end of the day, I want people
- 29:00Speaker 17: to hear this number. Fifty three million foreign born people
- 29:04Speaker 17: in the United States. Fifty three million, about sixteen percent.
- 29:08Speaker 17: That is the highest percentage in our nation's history. We
- 29:11Speaker 17: need to pause immigration, we need to breathe, we need
- 29:15Speaker 17: to reset our culture. We need to protect and put
- 29:17Speaker 17: America first. That's the goal here with our legislation.
- 29:20Speaker 3: You know, Congressman, I've sort of had a front row
- 29:23Speaker 3: view to this. So we broadcast our national show from
- 29:25Speaker 3: my hometown, which is Memphis, Tennessee, where the world headquarters
- 29:29Speaker 3: of FedEx. And I'll never forget this. I was coming
- 29:31Speaker 3: back from I think DC or New York and it
- 29:33Speaker 3: was on an adulta flight and I was the only
- 29:38Speaker 3: white guy on the flight. Everybody else were from India,
- 29:40Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh, what's going on here. Started doing
- 29:43Speaker 3: a little research and we're talking about massive influxes H
- 29:47Speaker 3: one B visa holders from India and other parts of
- 29:50Speaker 3: the world into Memphis and to Callyerville, one of the suburbs,
- 29:55Speaker 3: and we started getting a lot of calls from people saying,
- 29:57Speaker 3: what is going on here, because it's literally changing the
- 30:00Speaker 3: culture of our communities, the massive influx of these H
- 30:03Speaker 3: one BVSA holders and their families.
- 30:06Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, look, this is one of those things
- 30:09Speaker 17: that I think goes to the core of what we
- 30:10Speaker 17: were trying to uncover, the splc what we're trying to highlight.
- 30:14Speaker 2: With all these groups, there's a concerted effort to.
- 30:16Speaker 17: Destroy what is great and good about Western civilization, and
- 30:20Speaker 17: I think we need to pause and remember that.
- 30:22Speaker 2: I mean, you remember, Tom.
- 30:23Speaker 17: When we were in school in prior years, your entire
- 30:26Speaker 17: education curriculum was built around studying and frankly praising and
- 30:31Speaker 17: elevating Western civilization. That's right, we should do that, And
- 30:36Speaker 17: now we're doing the opposite. We're diminishing, demeaning, criticizing, ripping down,
- 30:41Speaker 17: shredding educationally. Western civilization are Judaeo Christian principles upon which
- 30:46Speaker 17: this nation were built. By the way, some of my
- 30:48Speaker 17: Christian friends and Christian supporters and constituent out there, why
- 30:51Speaker 17: do you always say Judeo Christian.
- 30:53Speaker 2: Well, look, I believe we're a Christian nation. I'm a Christian.
- 30:56Speaker 17: I believe that is the overwhelming, dominant force that has
- 30:59Speaker 17: made country great. And I will not apologize for saying
- 31:02Speaker 17: that to any of my brothers and sisters of any faith.
- 31:04Speaker 17: But we all built on Judeo Christian, Judeo Christian Western civilization.
- 31:10Speaker 17: That is the roots of who we are, and we've
- 31:12Speaker 17: got to be proud of that, defend it, and then
- 31:15Speaker 17: call out the March of Islam for what it is,
- 31:18Speaker 17: an attack on our way of life. They are at
- 31:20Speaker 17: war with us, and just because they're not declaring war
- 31:23Speaker 17: as one nation state against the other doesn't mean it's not.
- 31:26Speaker 17: Every bit is dangerous to our children and grandchildren's future.
- 31:31Speaker 17: We didn't have men on the die on the Alamo,
- 31:34Speaker 17: or storm on the beaches of Normandy, or or you
- 31:37Speaker 17: know otherwise fight, bleed and die for this country just
- 31:40Speaker 17: to turn it over quietly to Islamis who want to
- 31:44Speaker 17: remake our country.
- 31:44Speaker 2: It's insane.
- 31:45Speaker 3: Yeah, well said, Well said Congressman. We're going to have
- 31:48Speaker 3: to leave it there real quick. I would like to
- 31:50Speaker 3: if I could get your take on this the aftermath
- 31:55Speaker 3: of the Carmelo Anthony verdict. Yeah, I mean there's a
- 31:58Speaker 3: lot of ugliness out there, and quite frankly there I
- 32:01Speaker 3: mean black panthers. Everybody say they got the guide channing.
- 32:04Speaker 3: The only good cracker is a dead cracker. What the
- 32:06Speaker 3: heck is going on there?
- 32:09Speaker 2: Uh?
- 32:09Speaker 17: Well, look at I mean, this is very clear what
- 32:11Speaker 17: happened here. The kid is dead because this, you know,
- 32:14Speaker 17: Carmel Anthony sabed them.
- 32:15Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's what happened. I mean, so.
- 32:18Speaker 17: Looking for a prosecutor, what are you going to do?
- 32:20Speaker 17: You got to prosecute the kid. He did it.
- 32:22Speaker 12: And uh for.
- 32:23Speaker 17: People who don't like that, so oh he didn't get
- 32:25Speaker 17: a fair trial. We need a fair trial. I mean,
- 32:27Speaker 17: like there's not even disputing the facts. And this is
- 32:32Speaker 17: one of those things that if we don't stand strong,
- 32:35Speaker 17: you lose the rule of law.
- 32:37Speaker 6: And so I.
- 32:37Speaker 17: Applaud them for going after prosecute him, getting the conviction.
- 32:40Speaker 17: We got to proceed, and the and the governor and
- 32:43Speaker 17: the president of necessary obviously becomes a federalists. You run
- 32:46Speaker 17: out of state, the governor and local enforces have got
- 32:48Speaker 17: to keep the peace.
- 32:49Speaker 2: They're going to have to hold the line.
- 32:51Speaker 4: Uh.
- 32:52Speaker 2: Justice has to be served or you lose your nation.
- 32:54Speaker 2: And I believe that.
- 32:55Speaker 17: I mean I'm not one of these guys that things
- 32:57Speaker 17: we need to start going soft on crime as the opposite.
- 33:00Speaker 2: We've been doing that for too long.
- 33:02Speaker 17: That's why you have lawlessness on our streets, you know,
- 33:04Speaker 17: well in Memphis. Memphis has had extraordinary problems with that,
- 33:09Speaker 17: you know, Dallas, Houston. We're having increasing crime in San
- 33:12Speaker 17: Antonio and Austin because these das that are bought off,
- 33:14Speaker 17: Sorus funded, you know, leftists. We got to get back
- 33:18Speaker 17: to being right on, you know, putting putting people in jail.
- 33:20Speaker 3: We need to be in jails, well said. All right, Congressman,
- 33:24Speaker 3: thank you a lot to a lot to talk about,
- 33:26Speaker 3: and we do appreciate the great work you're doing for
- 33:28Speaker 3: America and for the American people. Good to see you, sir.
- 33:32Speaker 2: Thanks Todd Gublashing.
- 33:33Speaker 3: All right, there you go, Congressman chip Roy. Everybody a
- 33:36Speaker 3: standing up for the American workers, and not a lot
- 33:40Speaker 3: of people are doing that, especially in the Republican Party.
- 33:43Speaker 3: You know, I hate to mention that, but it's true.
- 33:45Speaker 3: So we appreciate the congressman doing that. All right, we're
- 33:49Speaker 3: gonna take a break here and again, ladies and gentlemen,
- 33:51Speaker 3: your calls on the Carmelo Anthony verdict. Do you believe
- 33:55Speaker 3: it was fair? Nine?
- 33:56Speaker 19: Oh?
- 33:56Speaker 3: One two six zero five nine two six. That's nine
- 34:00Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. This is
- 34:03Speaker 3: the Todd Sterns Show. All right, Welcome back, everybody. This
- 34:17Speaker 3: is the Todd Sterns Radio Show. By the way, This
- 34:21Speaker 3: segment of the program brought to you by our friends
- 34:24Speaker 3: at Chapter Ask Chapter dot org. If folks, if you're
- 34:29Speaker 3: turning sixty five, maybe you are already on Medicare. You
- 34:33Speaker 3: could be overpaying right now and you may not even
- 34:36Speaker 3: know it. I want to tell you about Thomas. He
- 34:38Speaker 3: did everything right. He did his research, thought he had
- 34:41Speaker 3: a handle on his options, but his previous broker did
- 34:45Speaker 3: not show him that plans that actually fit his life.
- 34:49Speaker 3: But Chapter did. Thomas made one call and his Chapter
- 34:52Speaker 3: advisor compared every plan available, found a plan Thomas had
- 34:56Speaker 3: never seen before, and turns out save Thomas one thousand
- 35:00Speaker 3: dollars a year on his prescription. So God bless him
- 35:04Speaker 3: for making that call. And this is why I am
- 35:06Speaker 3: partnering with Chapter. Chapter's advisors are honest. They are not
- 35:10Speaker 3: paid to push on anybody on any plan. They're the
- 35:13Speaker 3: only Medicare advisor that compares every plan nationwide to tell
- 35:17Speaker 3: you where you stand in just one call. You're going
- 35:20Speaker 3: to know exactly what you are entitled to. And if
- 35:24Speaker 3: you're already on the right plan, you know, they're going
- 35:26Speaker 3: to say, hey, look, you don't need to do anything,
- 35:28Speaker 3: and if you're not, they're going to help you switch.
- 35:30Speaker 3: A simple call with Chapter is free. It takes less
- 35:33Speaker 3: than twenty minutes. If you're turning sixty five or you're
- 35:37Speaker 3: already on medicare, I want you to go to this website,
- 35:40Speaker 3: write it down, ask chapter dot org. That's ask Chapter
- 35:44Speaker 3: dot org slash real help, and they're going to help
- 35:49Speaker 3: you out. All right, let's go to the phones. John
- 35:52Speaker 3: listening to us in North Carolina. John, what's on your
- 35:55Speaker 3: mind today?
- 35:57Speaker 20: I just wanted to talk about the very Yeah, I
- 35:59Speaker 20: do agree with it. They could have gave him a
- 36:02Speaker 20: lot worse thanence, but they didn't. They showed leniency. So yeah,
- 36:07Speaker 20: I think it was a fair, fair outcome.
- 36:09Speaker 3: What do you make of all of the noise out
- 36:12Speaker 3: out there outside of that courthouse, in the anti white rhetoric.
- 36:17Speaker 20: I just think that they're trying to to do away
- 36:20Speaker 20: with the facts that you know, it was a bad
- 36:23Speaker 20: incident and I hated for everyone, But you know, they
- 36:27Speaker 20: have a person that's deceased now and he's not gonna
- 36:32Speaker 20: have a chance to fulfill his life. So yeah, I
- 36:34Speaker 20: think it's just something to take away from the noise
- 36:38Speaker 20: of the case.
- 36:38Speaker 3: So all right, John, it's a good thought, good word.
- 36:42Speaker 3: Thank you for calling in today. Appreciate that. Dylan. We
- 36:45Speaker 3: have some fan mail, and it's not very good. This
- 36:52Speaker 3: is coming from Chandler Sprouse. So if you remember, I
- 36:57Speaker 3: asked about James Tallarico, who said he was trying to
- 37:00Speaker 3: come to terms with his masculinity, and I just asked
- 37:03Speaker 3: if he was wearing fully underpants. Esquire magazine picked up
- 37:07Speaker 3: on that, and now I'm getting hundreds of pieces of
- 37:11Speaker 3: hate mail. This is coming from mister Sprouse. Chandler Sprouse.
- 37:15Speaker 3: Dear Todd, I have stumbled across your unchristian and Unamerican
- 37:19Speaker 3: rhetoric and it has never bothered me much. However, what
- 37:24Speaker 3: you have said about James Tallerico offends me. I am
- 37:27Speaker 3: fifty seven, but I've never heard a man speculate about
- 37:32Speaker 3: another man wearing fully underpants. Now, I think you should
- 37:35Speaker 3: be your authentic self, and if you're interested in fully
- 37:38Speaker 3: underwear or curious about men who might wear such underwear,
- 37:42Speaker 3: I support you be yourself, wear your own fully underwear
- 37:46Speaker 3: if you like. I just spoke to a friend of
- 37:50Speaker 3: mine who is gay. He does not wear frelly underpants.
- 37:53Speaker 3: I mentioned your interest and he said that you, Todd Stearns,
- 37:57Speaker 3: in the gay community, would be known as what is
- 38:00Speaker 3: what is known as a marshmallow. Chubby Pale had apparently hairless.
- 38:07Speaker 3: Oh my, that's a little personal if you asked me.
- 38:10Speaker 3: But thank you for sending that. Chandler Dylan, I.
- 38:16Speaker 5: He did his research there.
- 38:18Speaker 3: He did his research. Really underpants. Who would have thought?
- 38:22Speaker 3: Who would have thought? All right, Hour two of the
- 38:25Speaker 3: Big Show coming up next.
- 38:48Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
- 38:52Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd Stars.
- 39:04Speaker 3: All Right, hello, everybody, Welcome to the Tod Serns Radio Show,
- 39:08Speaker 3: Hour two of the Big Show. We're watching monitoring all
- 39:12Speaker 3: the situations in the Middle East. President Trump now says
- 39:17Speaker 3: that Israel or Isran rather Iran is going to pay
- 39:20Speaker 3: a price after they shot down an Apache helicopter. Look,
- 39:28Speaker 3: here's the deal, folks, And I think we've got a
- 39:31Speaker 3: We've really got to pay attention to all of this.
- 39:33Speaker 3: But the reality of it is very clear to me
- 39:36Speaker 3: now that this war is going to go on for
- 39:39Speaker 3: a very long time, and it's beyond me why the
- 39:43Speaker 3: administration has allowed this to track on ceasefire after ceasefire
- 39:48Speaker 3: after ceasefire and nothing ever happened. So unless the President
- 39:53Speaker 3: is going to go in there and unleash the full
- 39:56Speaker 3: force of the military, I just don't see an end
- 39:59Speaker 3: to this. And it's a it's a very troubling thing.
- 40:02Speaker 3: A nine oh one two six zero five nine two
- 40:05Speaker 3: six is our telephone number. That's nine oh one two
- 40:08Speaker 3: six zero five, nine two six. Dylan. I got a
- 40:13Speaker 3: question for have you ever thought about just, you know,
- 40:15Speaker 3: living a nice long life. You know, I know you're
- 40:17Speaker 3: a young guy. You're in your twenties. You probably don't
- 40:19Speaker 3: think about that. Those of us in our fifties, we
- 40:22Speaker 3: kind of think about it.
- 40:24Speaker 5: Yeah, sometimes, yeah, occasionally.
- 40:28Speaker 7: You know.
- 40:28Speaker 3: I mean, when you're in your twenties, you don't really think,
- 40:30Speaker 3: oh wow, you know, fifty years old is like that.
- 40:32Speaker 3: That's like, you know, seventy years from now, that's now.
- 40:36Speaker 21: I feel like when you're younger, you don't think at
- 40:37Speaker 21: all about getting old. And then now that I'm like
- 40:40Speaker 21: twenty seven, I'm like, oh man, I'm getting old.
- 40:42Speaker 3: So you feel that, right, But when you're so, I'm
- 40:45Speaker 3: fifty eight, and I never I've never felt fifty eight,
- 40:49Speaker 3: but I've just I've never felt my age.
- 40:51Speaker 5: That is a really good sign.
- 40:52Speaker 3: And we were talking about this, and I think a
- 40:54Speaker 3: lot of it has to do with the fact that
- 40:55Speaker 3: our team is so young. Yeah that you know, you
- 40:58Speaker 3: guys sort of keep me young.
- 41:00Speaker 5: I guess you surround yourself with the ute.
- 41:02Speaker 3: Yeah, the ute of a mirror. That's it. It's the youtefulness.
- 41:06Speaker 3: But I tell you, I was looking in the mirror
- 41:08Speaker 3: after the heart surgery one day. I was just looking
- 41:11Speaker 3: in the mirror and it shocked me for a second
- 41:14Speaker 3: because I looked old. And that was the first time
- 41:17Speaker 3: I'd ever thought, jeez, Alou, I may be getting older.
- 41:21Speaker 3: But then I don't know. It may have been the drugs,
- 41:23Speaker 3: because then I looked again and I looked normal, or
- 41:28Speaker 3: or maybe that was a normal. And I don't know.
- 41:31Speaker 5: What's real anymore. What's your reality? You're young at.
- 41:35Speaker 3: Heart, so I know what I need help, And so
- 41:38Speaker 3: we found an expert on all of this to help
- 41:40Speaker 3: me work through all of this. He's written an incredible
- 41:43Speaker 3: book about it, too, called Authentic Longevity. Our next guest
- 41:47Speaker 3: on the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line doctor Mark Sherwood. He
- 41:51Speaker 3: is a practitioner and co founder of the Functional Medical
- 41:54Speaker 3: Institute and the author of this great book, Authentic Longevity.
- 42:00Speaker 3: And we have a mutual friend Joe Battaglia, who put
- 42:03Speaker 3: us together. Doctor Sherwood, What an honor to have you
- 42:05Speaker 3: with us today.
- 42:07Speaker 12: Thanks Todd, it's going to be with you too. I've
- 42:09Speaker 12: been looking forward to this all right.
- 42:10Speaker 3: First of all, I think we need to establish what
- 42:13Speaker 3: the term authentic longevity actually means.
- 42:18Speaker 22: Well, from our standpoint, it does not mean living just longer.
- 42:22Speaker 12: It means living better.
- 42:23Speaker 22: We've kind of coined the term increasing health span and
- 42:27Speaker 22: decreasing sixth span. I know you're talking just a moment
- 42:29Speaker 22: ago about being in the fifties and your producer there
- 42:33Speaker 22: being in the twenties. I mean, God, bless his soul.
- 42:35Speaker 22: That's really cool. But ultimately it's living younger older, it's
- 42:42Speaker 22: living younger, more vibrant, and perhaps it's even dying younger older.
- 42:48Speaker 3: That's yeah, that's an It's an interesting topic because again
- 42:52Speaker 3: I think a lot of people, and especially the older
- 42:55Speaker 3: you get, you know, you start thinking, Okay, how do
- 42:57Speaker 3: it's not just about living a long I've been living
- 43:00Speaker 3: a good life too. I have to imagine and being
- 43:02Speaker 3: a healthy person.
- 43:05Speaker 12: It really is.
- 43:06Speaker 22: And when you look at this standpoint from living Oliver,
- 43:09Speaker 22: I believe our expectations in America are a little bit off.
- 43:12Speaker 22: You know, we kind of set the tone that we're
- 43:15Speaker 22: supposed to live to about eighty. But you look at
- 43:20Speaker 22: history and you look at even biblical literature. In both
- 43:23Speaker 22: of those contexts, you come up with a whole different
- 43:27Speaker 22: expectation level. Probably somewhere around one twenty is the oldest
- 43:31Speaker 22: person that's ever lived by at least modern.
- 43:34Speaker 12: Day records, is one twenty two.
- 43:36Speaker 22: And we have many, many centenarians living right now, the
- 43:40Speaker 22: majority of which live in the country Japan, as well
- 43:43Speaker 22: as the majority of super centenarians, which are one ten
- 43:46Speaker 22: and greater living in the country of Japan as well.
- 43:48Speaker 12: So we have got to do things better.
- 43:51Speaker 22: But it starts with also probably changing our expectations somewhat.
- 43:55Speaker 22: What do you mean by that, Well, you know, when
- 43:58Speaker 22: you get up in the morning, we look at ourselves
- 44:01Speaker 22: and we might say, as you just said, I'm feeling
- 44:04Speaker 22: and looking older. Perhaps we need to consider switching that
- 44:08Speaker 22: around instead of saying I'm feeling a looking older, say
- 44:12Speaker 22: I'm feeling and looking better and then put those practices
- 44:16Speaker 22: into our daily lives. In that book, Authentic Longevity, we
- 44:20Speaker 22: went through all of the common sense things we can do,
- 44:23Speaker 22: from nutrition, sleep, stress management, movement, understanding genetics, understanding the
- 44:30Speaker 22: role that hormones may play, the role that peptizes may play,
- 44:33Speaker 22: the role that supplementation may play. When we talk about
- 44:37Speaker 22: the mindset, the spiritual, emotional, intellectual, even financial mindset, all
- 44:43Speaker 22: of that matters in the scope of being a human.
- 44:46Speaker 12: And all of those things can.
- 44:47Speaker 22: Create stress, and all those things can shorten your life,
- 44:50Speaker 22: and all those things can also be tools of blessings
- 44:53Speaker 22: in your life.
- 44:54Speaker 3: You know, I'm curious, doctor Mark, and we have doctor
- 44:56Speaker 3: Mark Sherwood with us, who's author of this terrific book,
- 44:59Speaker 3: Authentic Longetic, and my good friend Joe Battaglia out of Nashville,
- 45:03Speaker 3: and Joe has written a number of great books and
- 45:05Speaker 3: just a dear friend. And uh, I think he saw
- 45:08Speaker 3: what I was going through and he was like, you
- 45:10Speaker 3: need to talk to doctor sherwohend you get him on
- 45:12Speaker 3: the show. I'm wondering, doctor Mark, if if faith of Christianity.
- 45:16Speaker 3: I'm a person who goes church. Does that play into
- 45:20Speaker 3: having that longevity and having that that good kind of
- 45:24Speaker 3: a life?
- 45:26Speaker 12: It does, it is said, and I think we all
- 45:28Speaker 12: agree with this.
- 45:29Speaker 22: You could come like the five people you hang around
- 45:31Speaker 22: the most, and so you want to hang around people
- 45:33Speaker 22: that think a little bit different than our culture. My
- 45:36Speaker 22: wife and I, doctor Michelle, started the Functional Medical Institute
- 45:39Speaker 22: with this dream and goal of creating a new paradigm
- 45:43Speaker 22: and a new community of people that thought different, acting different,
- 45:46Speaker 22: lived different, looked different, were different. Because I realized that
- 45:50Speaker 22: what we're doing as a as a nation is just
- 45:52Speaker 22: simply not working. You know, you mentioned a moment ago
- 45:55Speaker 22: in the in the precomitary about the Iran conflict that
- 46:00Speaker 22: didn't seem like there's no end to that thing, and
- 46:02Speaker 22: I'm totally in the same played with you. But at
- 46:05Speaker 22: the same time, with our health trends today, Todd, they
- 46:08Speaker 22: are the worst they've ever been in the history of
- 46:11Speaker 22: mankind's existence. We have never been this more unhealthy than
- 46:15Speaker 22: we are right now, and we've got to wake up,
- 46:17Speaker 22: get our eyes open, realize that this is reality, and
- 46:20Speaker 22: there's a lot we can do about this.
- 46:22Speaker 12: It has to be changed.
- 46:24Speaker 3: Or else I want to We don't have a lot
- 46:27Speaker 3: of time, but I and we definitely want to get
- 46:29Speaker 3: you back on because I think a lot of our
- 46:30Speaker 3: listeners are going to have questions about this. One of
- 46:32Speaker 3: the things that you guys talk about are these evidence
- 46:36Speaker 3: based aging hacks, things that actually work for me. I
- 46:40Speaker 3: have a makeup artist who puts Bronzer number nine on,
- 46:43Speaker 3: so I look, you know, presentable for TV. The problem
- 46:46Speaker 3: is when I go to Churchill on some they people
- 46:47Speaker 3: say I look pale and sickly. So I just what
- 46:51Speaker 3: are some good aging hacks that you guys might recommend
- 46:55Speaker 3: that you might recommend, Yeah, just a few.
- 46:57Speaker 22: Real quick Going to bed thirty minutes early would be
- 47:00Speaker 22: a good thing. Getting at the same time a day
- 47:02Speaker 22: is a good thing. Walking around the block a couple
- 47:05Speaker 22: of times every single day, post meal, post evening meal
- 47:08Speaker 22: is a good thing. Getting out in the sunshine about
- 47:10Speaker 22: twenty minutes every day is a good thing. Drinking enough
- 47:14Speaker 22: sufficient water for us, it's between sixty and eighty ounces
- 47:18Speaker 22: per day, Taking vitamin D five thousand international units a day,
- 47:23Speaker 22: Taking omega three probably three thousand milligrams or three grams
- 47:28Speaker 22: a day. Those are just very, very basic things that
- 47:32Speaker 22: every single person can do. And I think one thing
- 47:35Speaker 22: to avoid is avoid the foods that create disease. And
- 47:39Speaker 22: so I facetiously say, you know, anything the government subsidizes breads, grains, corn, soy, dairy,
- 47:46Speaker 22: and sugar. Donate those things to really grab some health.
- 47:50Speaker 3: Well, now I did not realize that I hadn't been
- 47:53Speaker 3: coming back. I am, you know, on a diet and
- 47:55Speaker 3: losing weight and all that kind of good stuff, and
- 47:57Speaker 3: I've been steering clear of all of that. What about
- 47:59Speaker 3: breads things that you would you know, if you do
- 48:01Speaker 3: crave that, would you any any particular recommendations that would
- 48:05Speaker 3: be good healthy breads to eat?
- 48:07Speaker 22: Yes, you want to go to material that looks like
- 48:10Speaker 22: bread but is not bread, such as there's cauliflower wraps,
- 48:16Speaker 22: tortillas and things like that you can really have in
- 48:18Speaker 22: an unlimited capacity. There's also a recipe out there online.
- 48:22Speaker 22: People can pull it up. It's called cloud bread. It's
- 48:24Speaker 22: made from egg whites and some coconut flowers, some omniflour.
- 48:27Speaker 22: Those are amazing products that you can have in an
- 48:31Speaker 22: unlimited capacity that don't create the dastardly devastating effects of
- 48:35Speaker 22: the processed grains.
- 48:36Speaker 2: That we have today?
- 48:37Speaker 3: Can I still drink at doctor Pepper every now and again?
- 48:39Speaker 3: Is that permissible?
- 48:41Speaker 22: I've got a little hack for you on that one too.
- 48:43Speaker 22: Move into the carbonated flavored waters that are out there.
- 48:47Speaker 22: Those are a great transition in regard to moving from
- 48:51Speaker 22: carbonated sodas to that.
- 48:53Speaker 3: Oh, this is amazing stuff, Doctor Mark. Sure would everybody
- 48:57Speaker 3: author of Authentic Long Jetty and doctor Mark. We're going
- 49:02Speaker 3: to get you on for a longer segment so we
- 49:04Speaker 3: can talk more about this. And I am really intrigued
- 49:07Speaker 3: because we want people to live long lives and we
- 49:10Speaker 3: want to live happy lives too, And I love what
- 49:13Speaker 3: you guys are doing. Where can people go if they
- 49:15Speaker 3: want to get a copy of the book or maybe
- 49:17Speaker 3: get more information about you and doctor Michelle? Where can
- 49:19Speaker 3: they go to get that information?
- 49:22Speaker 22: Super easy? They can go to functional dr dot com.
- 49:25Speaker 22: Just the word functional dr dot com. That's our global
- 49:28Speaker 22: website and all kinds of free stuff out there for you,
- 49:31Speaker 22: including our books.
- 49:32Speaker 3: All right, one final question here, and if somebody in
- 49:35Speaker 3: our audience can just implement one change today to improve
- 49:40Speaker 3: their health trajectory, would what would that be?
- 49:44Speaker 12: The first meal?
- 49:45Speaker 2: Today?
- 49:46Speaker 22: You want to make sure that you have perhaps some
- 49:48Speaker 22: eggs and almond and avoid.
- 49:51Speaker 12: The things we talked about.
- 49:52Speaker 22: So healthy first meal is the best change to make
- 49:56Speaker 22: that people can do right now.
- 49:57Speaker 3: All right, good stuff, doctor Mark, thank you so much
- 50:00Speaker 3: for joining us. We look forward to getting back on
- 50:01Speaker 3: very soon.
- 50:03Speaker 12: Sounds great. Hope you have a great day, all right.
- 50:05Speaker 3: You too. Well, there you go, Dylan. I'm willing to
- 50:09Speaker 3: try some of this, but I gotta have my doctor Pepper.
- 50:11Speaker 5: I just yeah, you gotta have something on the side.
- 50:13Speaker 3: I gotta have a doctor Pepper. Yeah, I'll do an
- 50:15Speaker 3: extra lap around the block.
- 50:17Speaker 5: Have you tried the cauliflower?
- 50:19Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not gonna go either.
- 50:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 50:20Speaker 5: I would rather just cut it out, honestly, I just
- 50:22Speaker 5: mean too.
- 50:23Speaker 3: What was it was a Chick fil A? Remember when
- 50:25Speaker 3: they did the Friday cauliflower?
- 50:27Speaker 21: Yeah, the coll They tried to make it look like
- 50:29Speaker 21: the chicken patty and then you bite into it and
- 50:31Speaker 21: it's just like, well, that's not even closed.
- 50:33Speaker 3: I know. I was. I was at a Chick fil A,
- 50:35Speaker 3: I won't say where, and I saw a sweet grandma
- 50:37Speaker 3: and I guess she accidentally ordered that. You could tell
- 50:39Speaker 3: she she was a religious woman. She had the cross,
- 50:42Speaker 3: and she had a little Bible there, you know, she's
- 50:44Speaker 3: and she took one bite and just I mean, I'm
- 50:47Speaker 3: watching this, you know transfer you just this happened right
- 50:50Speaker 3: there in the restaurant, and all of a sudden.
- 50:52Speaker 5: I rebuke you.
- 50:54Speaker 3: I rebuke you. Chicken sandwich in the name of Jesus.
- 50:58Speaker 5: Yeah, cauliflower patty is not very good.
- 51:00Speaker 3: You called it demon chicken. It was coliflower, Yep, it was, Yeah,
- 51:04Speaker 3: it does. I mean, so I'm thinking, I'm going through
- 51:08Speaker 3: my checklist and I'm like, yeah, I can do that.
- 51:10Speaker 3: I can do that, but I'm not doing that. And
- 51:14Speaker 3: the almond milk I never did. That's just weird. I mean,
- 51:18Speaker 3: I know how you milk a cow. How do you
- 51:20Speaker 3: milk an almond? It's kind of like they have like
- 51:22Speaker 3: a little utters.
- 51:24Speaker 21: It's kind of like the grapes smashing great smash. I
- 51:28Speaker 21: only drink almond milk and coffee. I don't I don't
- 51:30Speaker 21: straight up drinking.
- 51:31Speaker 3: Is that right? Does it taste like an almond joy
- 51:34Speaker 3: like candy bar or something? What does it taste like?
- 51:36Speaker 5: Just tastes like milk?
- 51:37Speaker 3: Really, I don't know, you see, I just I don't
- 51:40Speaker 3: know about that. I don't know that. Okay, Yes, and
- 51:46Speaker 3: that in the oats. What is an oat milk? Yeah,
- 51:48Speaker 3: that's not gonna happen. That's not gonna happen. That's what
- 51:52Speaker 3: God gave us cows for. Otherwise, why do they need
- 51:54Speaker 3: the utters?
- 51:56Speaker 2: Right?
- 51:56Speaker 3: Great way, I look at it. All right, We're gonna
- 51:59Speaker 3: go to the phone line. I got to take a
- 52:00Speaker 3: break here. Nine oh one two six zero five nine

- 52:11Speaker 3: And make sure you're eating healthy, good stuff, very practical
- 52:14Speaker 3: stuff as well, Doctor Mark. Surewo all right, hang time,
- 52:16Speaker 3: everybody got to take a break, all right, Welcome back, everybody. Uh,
- 52:26Speaker 3: let's go right to the phones. Nine oh one two
- 52:29Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. Bill in high Point,
- 52:33Speaker 3: North Carolina on the line, Hi, Bill, what's what's going on?
- 52:37Speaker 3: What's on your mind today?
- 52:39Speaker 23: Well, because I mean, I'm not an attorney, but I
- 52:41Speaker 23: have done my tour of duty in the scheme of
- 52:46Speaker 23: things about being selected for a jury. Fine, if it's
- 52:50Speaker 23: if I understand correctly, the prosecution end of the stent
- 52:55Speaker 23: have the same opportunity to question and interview possible jurors,
- 53:01Speaker 23: and then they select those jurors for the trial.
- 53:04Speaker 6: So if there's a.
- 53:05Speaker 23: Problem with the quote unquote whiteness of this jury, well,
- 53:09Speaker 23: Carmelo Anthony trial, I think there should be some fingers
- 53:14Speaker 23: pointed back to the defense attorneys for maybe not doing
- 53:16Speaker 23: their job to get whom they actually wanted on the
- 53:19Speaker 23: jury for quote unquote fair trial.
- 53:24Speaker 3: Yeah. Bill, look, I think your spot on there in
- 53:27Speaker 3: your analysis, and you're right, the defense could have raised objections,
- 53:32Speaker 3: you know, at the time, if there were objections, I
- 53:35Speaker 3: suspect they did not, because this case was pretty much
- 53:39Speaker 3: I mean, it is what it is. I think everybody
- 53:42Speaker 3: knew the outcome here, and I think even the defense did,
- 53:45Speaker 3: and that's why they didn't object. So at least they
- 53:47Speaker 3: could turn right back around and say, well, we're blaming
- 53:50Speaker 3: this on the all white jury.
- 53:53Speaker 6: Right.
- 53:53Speaker 23: Well, I just wanted to make sure that everybody kind
- 53:56Speaker 23: of has a better understanding that if you know, both
- 53:59Speaker 23: sides had the equal off opportunity, and then it wasn't
- 54:01Speaker 23: a partisan thing that one side would be able to
- 54:05Speaker 23: select only the jurors to be pull for that jury.
- 54:09Speaker 23: But yeah, oh, and one of the quick things for
- 54:12Speaker 23: you always remember Todd, when you're drinking your doctor pepper
- 54:17Speaker 23: ten two and four?
- 54:21Speaker 3: What what is that?
- 54:22Speaker 20: Now?
- 54:22Speaker 3: I'm missing what you said?
- 54:25Speaker 24: All right?
- 54:25Speaker 23: Oh, if you look on an old doctor pepper bottle, okay,
- 54:29Speaker 23: it shows a market ten, a market two, and a
- 54:36Speaker 23: mark at four.
- 54:38Speaker 2: What is that?
- 54:38Speaker 23: Aut you have a doctor pepper at your ten o'clock
- 54:42Speaker 23: break in the morning. Oh, you have a doctor pepper
- 54:46Speaker 23: at two in the afternoon. Okay, and then when you're
- 54:49Speaker 23: done work at four you have enough.
- 54:52Speaker 3: I love this idea, you know, Bill, It's interesting. They
- 54:54Speaker 3: didn't know that. They did a They did an interview
- 54:57Speaker 3: with the lady who was like over one hundred and
- 54:58Speaker 3: something years old, and they asked her what that's the secret,
- 55:01Speaker 3: and they said, she drinks three doctor peppers a day
- 55:03Speaker 3: and that's where she got that from.
- 55:06Speaker 6: Well, if you'll google it, you'll get a little bit
- 55:08Speaker 6: further into that rabbit hole top and I just thought
- 55:11Speaker 6: throws it out there you as just a.
- 55:14Speaker 3: I love that. I'm going down that rabbit hole. Bill,
- 55:17Speaker 3: Thank you for that. We got to research this, Dyllan.
- 55:19Speaker 3: This makes all the sense.
- 55:20Speaker 5: You're gonna hold on to that forever, aren't you. Absolutely?
- 55:24Speaker 3: Look, because she's and the reporter said, well, what did
- 55:26Speaker 3: your doctors tell you? She said, well, my doctors are
- 55:29Speaker 3: all dead, you know they By the way, Paul Shanklin,
- 55:34Speaker 3: Paul Shanklin and the lovely Missus Shanklin. Missus Shanklin says,
- 55:38Speaker 3: don't knock califlower. It's good for you. Well, it's good
- 55:43Speaker 3: for potholes and packaging.
- 55:46Speaker 21: It is good for you, but it doesn't taste I mean,
- 55:48Speaker 21: you could probably put some unhealthy to make it taste.
- 55:51Speaker 3: Better, she says strenth today with protein, especially if you
- 55:53Speaker 3: have a sugar problem. Otherwise you feel like cramp for
- 55:55Speaker 3: the whole day.
- 55:56Speaker 5: That's true.
- 55:57Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been Yes, this is good. Oh, by the way,
- 56:00Speaker 3: and again A ten, two and four are also the
- 56:03Speaker 3: session times in Nashville. So yeah, he's right. So thank you, Bill,
- 56:08Speaker 3: appreciate that. The for the Intel nine oh one two
- 56:11Speaker 3: six zero five NYE two six is our telephone number.
- 56:13Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five diye two six.

- 57:29Speaker 25: a tall glass fillip full of byes. You're poor, your
- 57:36Speaker 25: doctor Pepper, I don't know anything do, doctor Pepper, but
- 57:39Speaker 25: I do this with cream shoda, and you fill it
- 57:42Speaker 25: up to the top and then you walk away for
- 57:45Speaker 25: a couple of hours, let that ice melt down, and
- 57:48Speaker 25: then you got water that tastes like what you want
- 57:51Speaker 25: to drink.
- 57:51Speaker 2: Take care of game?
- 57:53Speaker 3: All right? Well, and that's ed from Texas. What's the
- 57:56Speaker 3: point telling you're so now you're just wasting a doctor Pepper.
- 57:59Speaker 3: Not how No, I don't think it is. I don't
- 58:03Speaker 3: know the science behind and all, but I don't think
- 58:05Speaker 3: that's the.
- 58:06Speaker 5: Way that he seems like a pretty creative guy.
- 58:09Speaker 3: I like you, by the way. Nothing wrong with a
- 58:12Speaker 3: cream soda, Oh no, not at all. There is a
- 58:16Speaker 3: have you ever had? Is it boiling? I think it's
- 58:19Speaker 3: b o y L. I n the sodas, I don't
- 58:21Speaker 3: think so. Man, you gotta try and to come in
- 58:23Speaker 3: the bottles. A little pricey, but man, fine fine soda.
- 58:27Speaker 3: Cream soda.
- 58:28Speaker 5: Soda in the bottle tastes better. I'll you know, I'll
- 58:30Speaker 5: die on that hill.
- 58:31Speaker 3: Nothing better than an ice cold Coca Cola out of
- 58:34Speaker 3: a machine, right, you know, one of the glass bottle machines.
- 58:37Speaker 5: Yeah, the Mexican cokes. Oh, very good.
- 58:40Speaker 3: That's the only thing I appreciate south of the border,
- 58:44Speaker 3: the Mexican cokes.
- 58:45Speaker 5: That's fair.
- 58:46Speaker 19: Uh.
- 58:46Speaker 3: Let's go to Don in Texas. Patriot Talk nine to
- 58:49Speaker 3: twenty are terrific. Affiliate There, Hi, Don, what's on your
- 58:53Speaker 3: mind today?
- 58:55Speaker 7: Well?
- 58:55Speaker 19: I got a couple of things, but the first thing
- 58:57Speaker 19: I want to touch is the Dr Pepper. I'm a
- 59:00Speaker 19: lot older than you. And back when Doctor Pepper first
- 59:04Speaker 19: came out, their ad campaign was ten to enforce, so
- 59:11Speaker 19: that's what they were advertising, drank of Doctor Pepper at
- 59:16Speaker 19: ten to and force. So that's an old, old advertising campaign. Now,
- 59:23Speaker 19: the things I wanted to talk to you about was.
- 59:26Speaker 3: Well, well, hold on a second. Here, hold on a second,
- 59:28Speaker 3: because I have a lot of questions about that. We're
- 59:30Speaker 3: going to get to what you're talking about. So I
- 59:32Speaker 3: didn't realize this, but Doctor Pepper is actually older than
- 59:35Speaker 3: Coca Cola and Pepsi, so it's been around for a
- 59:38Speaker 3: very long time.
- 59:41Speaker 19: Doctor Pepper was originated in Waco, Texas. And if you
- 59:45Speaker 19: go to Waco, Texas today, you can go and get
- 59:49Speaker 19: the original. Doctor Pepper was made with sugar. It wasn't
- 59:55Speaker 19: made with anything else. It was a sugar and you
- 59:57Speaker 19: can buy the original which came made with sugar, and
- 1:00:04Speaker 19: they sell it right there. The original is that right?
- 1:00:08Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:00:09Speaker 19: They have a museum there, a Doctor Pepper Museum in
- 1:00:11Speaker 19: Waco kicks.
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: You see, the only thing people know about Waco is
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: Chip and Joanna Gaines. But the real reason to go
- 1:00:17Speaker 3: to Waco is to go to the Doctor Pepper Museum.
- 1:00:22Speaker 19: That's still no things to stay there. I've been there
- 1:00:26Speaker 19: a lot, but anyway, moving on, Yeah, that's the The
- 1:00:31Speaker 19: Doctor Pepper Museum is there, and it's a great place
- 1:00:36Speaker 19: to go and visit and if you ever get a chance,
- 1:00:38Speaker 19: go because it's very interesting.
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: You know what's interesting. A lot of people thought back
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: of that is this tri I don't know if you
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: can this may be an old wives tale, but the
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: rumor was that there was prune juice in Doctor Pepper.
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: But that actually was started as as a joke by
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: Bob Hope, and people took it to be like, oh
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: my gosh, you know there's but I don't care because
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: it taste good and if that's prune juice, then give
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: me some more prune juice.
- 1:01:04Speaker 19: Well, I'm going to tell you a true story about
- 1:01:06Speaker 19: my dad and I was a very young boy at
- 1:01:09Speaker 19: the time, but we went in and we both got
- 1:01:12Speaker 19: a a cola and he got a Doctor Pepper and
- 1:01:15Speaker 19: I got one of the little great pits. I don't
- 1:01:18Speaker 19: know whether you remember those or not. They came in
- 1:01:20Speaker 19: a odd shaped bottle, let's put it that way. And
- 1:01:25Speaker 19: my dad took one drink to that dr Pepper, which
- 1:01:28Speaker 19: he'd never had before, and he said, I'm not drinking
- 1:01:32Speaker 19: this prune juice. And that's a true story.
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: Wow, that's well, you know, it's interesting the history. A
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: lot of people think that it was you know, that
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: a physician actually created a drink, but it was really
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: a drug store owner. And as as the story I
- 1:01:48Speaker 3: was told and clearly done. You're the you're the doctor
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: Pepper historian of the Todd Starns radio show. We're giving
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: you a We're giving you a battlefield promotion. Here. My
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: understanding is it was named after a doctor because the
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: drug store owner was trying to woo He was trying
- 1:02:05Speaker 3: to court the doctor's daughter, so he figured naming the
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: drink after her father would actually work, and unfortunately it
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: never did. But you know, he became very famous as
- 1:02:18Speaker 3: a result of it.
- 1:02:18Speaker 19: All well, I have no documentation on that, but I
- 1:02:24Speaker 19: believe you're right. I cannot validate what you say, but
- 1:02:28Speaker 19: I believe that.
- 1:02:29Speaker 7: You are right.
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: All right, Well, all right, doctor Charles T. Pepper, that's
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: who it was named after. There you go, uh done done.
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: What did you call to talk about?
- 1:02:38Speaker 19: Okay? What I call to talk about is the Republican
- 1:02:43Speaker 19: Party keep sending me mail and I keep sending the
- 1:02:47Speaker 19: mail back and I say, look, I'm not going to
- 1:02:50Speaker 19: contribute anymore to the Republican Party until they actually do something,
- 1:02:56Speaker 19: and they just they ignore it. Now, how do I
- 1:03:00Speaker 19: get to the You have a better connection with getting
- 1:03:06Speaker 19: to somebody than I do. Obviously, all I can do
- 1:03:08Speaker 19: is write a letter or send an email, but it
- 1:03:11Speaker 19: doesn't seem to have any effect. They just ignore it. Now.
- 1:03:15Speaker 19: I understand when you write to a representative or anything
- 1:03:18Speaker 19: like that, they got a lot of stuff going on.
- 1:03:20Speaker 19: They do not read every piece of mail. They have
- 1:03:24Speaker 19: somebody there that reads their mail and then passes onto
- 1:03:27Speaker 19: them what they think should be handled by them. But
- 1:03:31Speaker 19: how do the people out here, just common people like myself,
- 1:03:37Speaker 19: get somebody to take notice of what we're saying. There's
- 1:03:41Speaker 19: a lot of people saying what I'm saying right now,
- 1:03:45Speaker 19: but it doesn't seem to be registered.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm one of them to don And I
- 1:03:51Speaker 3: think one of the ways you can send a message
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: and be very polite and kind about it is to
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: stop sending them money. One of that's what I did.
- 1:03:59Speaker 3: And you know, I have given a lot of money
- 1:04:02Speaker 3: to the Republican Party over the years, and I stopped
- 1:04:05Speaker 3: doing that because I realized they weren't really doing anything.
- 1:04:09Speaker 3: So one of the ways you what I would recommend
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: you do, Don, is not only do you stop giving,
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: but you go to one of the Republican meetings locally
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: and you you explain why, and you also reach out.
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: You can also reach out to your state director many states,
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: including Texas. I know you guys have a big what
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: convention coming up because our friends at Patriot Talk nine
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: to twenty are actually broadcasting from the Texas Republican Convention meeting.
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: I would reach out to your state Executive Committee, Don,
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: and I'm sure all of that information is online or
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: somebody can certainly help you find that information, but I
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: would reach out to them and I would share exactly
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: what you shared with me. I would suggest that you
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: share with them as well, because at the end of
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: the day, if they don't listen to common sense, they
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: will listen when the money drives up.
- 1:05:00Speaker 19: I've already stopped sending them money, and I've told them that,
- 1:05:04Speaker 19: but they still keep sending me mail.
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: Yeah, Jesus, kind of like the NRA. If it would
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: just stop sending all that mail, you know, they'd be
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: able to balance their budget. All right, Go ahead, there,
- 1:05:14Speaker 3: go ahead, Don. One final thought, Yeah, yeah, one final thought.
- 1:05:18Speaker 19: Why has not AOC been prosecuted for some of the
- 1:05:23Speaker 19: crime she does? Who is in charge of that?
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: Well, well, if if in fact crimes were committed that,
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: you know, the law enforcement would have to get involved.
- 1:05:32Speaker 3: But when it comes to ethics and things like that,
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: well that's the House of Representatives. They have an ethics committee,
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: and she can be brought forward on you know, on
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: those you know charges, if there were charges filed. I
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: haven't been paying that much attention to AOC lately. Uh,
- 1:05:49Speaker 3: But then again, when you look at the Democrat Party,
- 1:05:52Speaker 3: I mean, whatever she did certainly pales in comparison to
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: what Graham Plantner has done, who is now I guess
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: that is the benchmark for what it means to be
- 1:06:01Speaker 3: a Democrat. Don thank you for the call, appreciate you,
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: and thank you for the Doctor Pepper history. I am
- 1:06:08Speaker 3: I'm calling an audible right now. We're gonna do a

- 1:09:06Speaker 3: one of the most important books you need to read.
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: Number one is The Golden Age, but the second one,
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: a close second, is called Founded on Faith, America's Christian
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: heritage and the faith we must pass on. It is
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: a terrific book. Our good friend, doctor Paul Chappell, the
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: senior pastor at Lancaster Baptist Church, president of West Coast
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: Baptist College, joins us, doctor Chapell, hope you're doing well.
- 1:09:28Speaker 6: Today, doing great, Todd, great to hear your voice.
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: Well, I'm just, first of all, I'm glad my book
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: comes out after yours. I just don't want to be
- 1:09:37Speaker 3: bumped off the best seller's list by doctor Chapel.
- 1:09:40Speaker 6: But well, either way that would happen, would be great,
- 1:09:45Speaker 6: but I'd be happy to I'd be happy to move
- 1:09:47Speaker 6: aside for you.
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, doctor Chappell. I am I
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: love this book and I've read it and what I
- 1:09:53Speaker 3: love about it is it's a pretty quick read, but
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: there's so much information about America's Christian heritage. I'm what's curious,
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: why did you just try to tackle this particular subject.
- 1:10:04Speaker 6: Well, as we look at the two hundred and fiftieth
- 1:10:06Speaker 6: anniversary of our nation's birth, we must look at what
- 1:10:11Speaker 6: preceded those great events, our declaration of independence, And when
- 1:10:15Speaker 6: you study the seventeen thirties and seventeen forties, you find
- 1:10:20Speaker 6: this one particular individual, George Whitfield, traveling up and down
- 1:10:24Speaker 6: the country relentlessly from Georgia to New England preaching. And
- 1:10:28Speaker 6: it became such a season of revival that people would
- 1:10:32Speaker 6: take time off of work to go to services and
- 1:10:35Speaker 6: per meetings. And the emphasis of the book is showing
- 1:10:39Speaker 6: that all of that revival was really just breaking up
- 1:10:43Speaker 6: the fallow ground of a nation, preparing our nation to
- 1:10:48Speaker 6: place within our sacred documents, references to God's providence, to
- 1:10:53Speaker 6: him as our creator, and really preparing for the birth
- 1:10:56Speaker 6: of a Christian nation.
- 1:10:59Speaker 3: I'm curious research because so many people are like, well,
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: America was America is a secular nation. You know, it
- 1:11:06Speaker 3: can't be a christianation. What did you come away with
- 1:11:10Speaker 3: as you were researching the book.
- 1:11:13Speaker 6: I came away with the fact that our founders, such
- 1:11:16Speaker 6: as Roger Williams in Rhode Island, had tolerance for other faiths.
- 1:11:21Speaker 6: The Baptist in particular belief in individual soul liberty, but
- 1:11:26Speaker 6: they were unashamedly Christian. Whether you go to Patrick Henry
- 1:11:30Speaker 6: and read his will where he left his items to
- 1:11:35Speaker 6: his children, but he said, of all things, I lead
- 1:11:37Speaker 6: to you my faith in Jesus Christ. Or John Adams,
- 1:11:40Speaker 6: our second president, who said the Constitution was made only
- 1:11:44Speaker 6: for a moral and religious people. It goes on and on.
- 1:11:48Speaker 6: When we see even George Washington kneeling in prayer at
- 1:11:51Speaker 6: Valley Forge, were reminded that this is the faith of
- 1:11:54Speaker 6: our fathers. And if anyone has further questions, just go
- 1:11:58Speaker 6: to a national cemetery and tell me what you see.
- 1:12:01Speaker 6: And you're going to see thousands of process and thank God,
- 1:12:05Speaker 6: you're going to see some stars of David and other symbolism.
- 1:12:08Speaker 6: We thank God for every patriot who loves and serves
- 1:12:10Speaker 6: this country. But we live in a nation that was
- 1:12:14Speaker 6: founded by Christian men and women who wanted something very distinct.
- 1:12:19Speaker 6: They wanted freedom to worship as they pleased.
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: The other part of your title, the faith we must
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: pass on, and I don't know if we've done a
- 1:12:28Speaker 3: really good job of that in this country. You know,
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: telling these stories about the great patriots of old and
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: what really compelled them to take us in and create
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: this great nation of ours.
- 1:12:41Speaker 6: Well, I believe our founders wanted to pass it on.
- 1:12:44Speaker 6: There was a study done at the University of Houston
- 1:12:47Speaker 6: that found thirty four percent of all quotations from the
- 1:12:51Speaker 6: Founders was directly from the Bible. However, in recent days
- 1:12:56Speaker 6: we have seen the attacks, whether Madeline Murray O'Hare attacking
- 1:13:01Speaker 6: the presence of the Ten Commandments and prayer and all
- 1:13:04Speaker 6: of these battles against our faith. And the way to
- 1:13:07Speaker 6: pass it on is number one. We need to have
- 1:13:09Speaker 6: pastors that stand courageously and preach truth, and then believers
- 1:13:14Speaker 6: that contend for the faith and stand up for what
- 1:13:19Speaker 6: our founders purposed. And so I truly believe it begins
- 1:13:24Speaker 6: in the home and then to the church and then
- 1:13:26Speaker 6: to the society from there.
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: Doctor Paul Champell joining us, the pastor of the first
- 1:13:31Speaker 3: first Baptist I had doctor Jeffers on my mind. Doctor Champbell,
- 1:13:38Speaker 3: that's the problem. Lancaster Baptisters. I have to tell you
- 1:13:42Speaker 3: I met an interesting character yesterday. I was invited to
- 1:13:47Speaker 3: speak at a Republican women's gathering here in the Memphis area.
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: And Butch Wilmore, you know the astronaut who got stuck
- 1:13:54Speaker 3: in space? Remember that guy, Yes, And he is a
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: fellow believer. He and his wife just moved to Houston
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: and they're Reformed Baptist. And I said, so, where does
- 1:14:04Speaker 3: that fall between like the foot washing and the you know,
- 1:14:08Speaker 3: independent Baptist And they are a mess of Baptist out there.
- 1:14:12Speaker 6: There are a lot of different types of Baptists, and
- 1:14:16Speaker 6: I just pray that most of them are preaching the death,
- 1:14:19Speaker 6: barren resurrection of Jesus Christ, because that's the greatest need
- 1:14:22Speaker 6: of the hour.
- 1:14:23Speaker 3: It certainly is. And the Doctor Chapel again, we just
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: thank you so much for the great work you're doing.
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: And West Coast Baptist College, we just love the school
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: and the church is just an amazing place. Paul Chapel

- 1:18:00Speaker 3: away free of charge eight hundred ninety six ninety. Text
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: and data rates may apply. There's a crazy story out
- 1:18:09Speaker 3: of New York State, and this one is just Bonker's
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: mind blowing and I brought it to you when the
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: story first broke that democrats in New York State wanted
- 1:18:21Speaker 3: to remove the term mother and father from a number
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: of official government documents and remove all gendered language and
- 1:18:31Speaker 3: replace it with words like gest stating and non gestating parents. Well,
- 1:18:37Speaker 3: fortunately there are still some good conservatives, rock solid Republicans
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: in New York State that are willing to push back
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: and fight back against this nonsense. And one of them
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: joins us right now, State Senator Patricia Kensonary Fitzpatrick from
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: the great state of New York. Senator, good to have
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: you with us today.
- 1:18:58Speaker 10: Thank you, Todd. It's a pleasure to be with you.
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: So I'm just curious. I want to hear your when
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: you first heard about this whole gest dating versus non
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: gestating parents. What went through your mind.
- 1:19:11Speaker 10: Well, in the throes of passing a budget of two
- 1:19:15Speaker 10: hundred and sixty eight billion dollars, that we are worried
- 1:19:20Speaker 10: about some nonsense about being all inclusive to people that
- 1:19:27Speaker 10: refer to themselves as gestationing parents and non gestationing. Is
- 1:19:31Speaker 10: this truly what New Yorkers see at the top of
- 1:19:35Speaker 10: their list and their priority. Never mind homelessness, never mind
- 1:19:40Speaker 10: food insecurity, never mind the ever increasing utility crisis that
- 1:19:46Speaker 10: we have in New York State. This is what my
- 1:19:49Speaker 10: colleagues across the aisle thought was deserving of time at
- 1:19:53Speaker 10: a vote in the last days of session, when we
- 1:19:57Speaker 10: are trying desperately to get things that truly matter through
- 1:20:00Speaker 10: this is their priority, and I think they're misguided, and
- 1:20:04Speaker 10: I think it's not truly what New Yorkers want, certainly
- 1:20:07Speaker 10: not what the people I represent.
- 1:20:08Speaker 7: Want, you know.
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: And again, there are a lot of problems in New
- 1:20:12Speaker 3: York State, most of them in New York City proper
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: of all the issues, Why they would be so focused
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: on something like this makes absolutely no sense. And again, Senator,
- 1:20:23Speaker 3: it might be helpful just to explain to people I
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: lived and worked in New York City for fifteen years,
- 1:20:28Speaker 3: but a lot of folks who've never been to New
- 1:20:30Speaker 3: York State, they sort of think the rest of the
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: state is like Manhattan, and that is just simply not
- 1:20:35Speaker 3: the case.
- 1:20:36Speaker 12: Is it.
- 1:20:37Speaker 4: No.
- 1:20:38Speaker 10: I will tell you that there are senators that I
- 1:20:40Speaker 10: work with that represent seven counties upstate because there's not
- 1:20:45Speaker 10: enough of a population to get to three hundred and
- 1:20:48Speaker 10: thirty thousand people. We have the largest agricultural production of
- 1:20:54Speaker 10: many many states in our area. We have a very
- 1:20:58Speaker 10: vibrant farm bureau. We have lovely beaches and coastline along
- 1:21:04Speaker 10: Long Island where I represent. But there is a vast
- 1:21:08Speaker 10: difference and lots of different types of counties. But Manhattan
- 1:21:13Speaker 10: is certainly just a small piece of it population wise.
- 1:21:17Speaker 10: I will tell you that the five boroughs in Manhattan
- 1:21:20Speaker 10: do dictate a lot of what goes on in Albany,
- 1:21:23Speaker 10: and that's the problem, is that they're dictating an agenda
- 1:21:26Speaker 10: that they see as responsive to their constituents, but many
- 1:21:30Speaker 10: of the people throughout the state don't agree with that.
- 1:21:33Speaker 3: I want to play some audio for you. This is
- 1:21:35Speaker 3: Mayor Zoron Mamdami hosting a pride party yesterday at New
- 1:21:40Speaker 3: York City Hall, and he announced a massive investment in
- 1:21:45Speaker 3: gender affirming care. Let's play got thirty three for the
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: Senator place.
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: Can y'all hear me? All right, y'all hear me?
- 1:21:51Speaker 10: All right, y'all hear me?
- 1:21:52Speaker 6: All right?
- 1:21:52Speaker 26: I'm Pepperman and I am so excited to be here
- 1:21:55Speaker 26: for Mayor mam Donni's very first ever New York City
- 1:22:00Speaker 26: I'd celebration as Mayor, Happy Pride everyone.
- 1:22:09Speaker 27: As a first step, my administration has made a fifteen
- 1:22:12Speaker 27: million dollar investment in gender affirming care over the next
- 1:22:15Speaker 27: two years, and we will continue to use every tool
- 1:22:21Speaker 27: at our disposal to ensure that trans and gender non
- 1:22:24Speaker 27: conforming New Yorkers can live with dignity. Safety and freedom
- 1:22:28Speaker 27: they deserve.
- 1:22:29Speaker 3: All right, Senator, I thought New York City was really
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: going through a financial crisis, and here they are spending
- 1:22:36Speaker 3: fifteen million dollars for gender affirming care.
- 1:22:41Speaker 10: Well, you certainly hit the nail on the head there,
- 1:22:44Speaker 10: because we are dealing with a bailout of New York
- 1:22:48Speaker 10: City and the mayor turned around and told us that
- 1:22:51Speaker 10: he had assisted a twelve billion dollar deficit and they
- 1:22:55Speaker 10: needed help from New York State. And now this is
- 1:22:59Speaker 10: what he chooses to do with the money that the
- 1:23:01Speaker 10: governor has promised him. It's irresponsible, it's financially reckless, and
- 1:23:07Speaker 10: it is misguided in my opinion, because if you truly
- 1:23:11Speaker 10: have a housing crisis and food insecurity, as I mentioned before,
- 1:23:15Speaker 10: those things should take priority.
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: Senator, I'm just curious about what it's what it's like,
- 1:23:20Speaker 3: and what is what the Republican party situation there is
- 1:23:24Speaker 3: in New York State, the conservative movement. You have been
- 1:23:27Speaker 3: really at the forefront, taking so many bold positions, and
- 1:23:30Speaker 3: I just have great respect for you. I know, Saint
- 1:23:32Speaker 3: John University when they tried to ban the TPUSA club,
- 1:23:35Speaker 3: You're one of the first people to speak out.
- 1:23:37Speaker 12: What is it?
- 1:23:38Speaker 3: What is it like? Being a conservative in New York
- 1:23:41Speaker 3: State right.
- 1:23:41Speaker 10: Now, challenging is one word definitely in the minority.
- 1:23:48Speaker 19: In Aubany.
- 1:23:50Speaker 10: I do feel that it is my duty, my obligation,
- 1:23:53Speaker 10: and a privilege to speak out for the things that
- 1:23:56Speaker 10: I'm hearing in my district. And I will tell you
- 1:24:00Speaker 10: that many people constantly say thank you for fighting against
- 1:24:05Speaker 10: what is going on because, just as one example, my
- 1:24:09Speaker 10: colleagues on the other side of the aisle constantly say
- 1:24:12Speaker 10: that they would never support voter ID, yet we know
- 1:24:17Speaker 10: from a Siena poll that at least seventy percent of
- 1:24:20Speaker 10: New Yorkers support it. So my colleagues on the other
- 1:24:24Speaker 10: side of the aisle choose to buck what their constituents
- 1:24:27Speaker 10: want and they vote the way they think and not
- 1:24:31Speaker 10: the way their constituents are advocating for. And that is troubling,
- 1:24:36Speaker 10: which is why I continue to go to Albany and
- 1:24:40Speaker 10: fight for these different issues that come up. And one
- 1:24:44Speaker 10: of these, you know, I understand that the new generation
- 1:24:48Speaker 10: wants to be all inclusive and accept everybody, but you
- 1:24:52Speaker 10: have now just diminished my desire to be called the mother.
- 1:24:56Speaker 10: I'm a mom of four and very proud of it.
- 1:24:59Speaker 10: My family is the bedrock of why I do this.
- 1:25:02Speaker 10: How can you take away my right to be called
- 1:25:05Speaker 10: a mother and now say that you want to be
- 1:25:08Speaker 10: all inclusive, Will you just excluded me.
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: It's a great point, and it's a common sense point,
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: but also one of the other things about New York State.
- 1:25:18Speaker 3: I mean, it is a religious state. I happen to
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: be a Baptist. You don't have a Protestant But the
- 1:25:23Speaker 3: Catholic Church has pretty pretty much spoken out all of this,
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: and it flies in the face of, quite frankly, the
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: religion and the religious beliefs of an overwhelming majority of
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: New Yorkers.
- 1:25:37Speaker 10: I couldn't agree with you more. We say all the
- 1:25:40Speaker 10: time that faith is the bedrock of why this country
- 1:25:44Speaker 10: was founded. The right to practice your religion. God is
- 1:25:47Speaker 10: in every document, it's on our dollar bills. It is
- 1:25:51Speaker 10: a bedrock of why America was founded. And to abandon
- 1:25:56Speaker 10: the Judeo Christian principles that was why America is so great,
- 1:26:01Speaker 10: you're taking a dangerous turn, abandoning and turning your back
- 1:26:05Speaker 10: on the things that this country was built on, and I,
- 1:26:09Speaker 10: for one strongly disagree with it. Regardless of what your
- 1:26:12Speaker 10: faith is. I am a Catholic, a devout Catholic, and
- 1:26:15Speaker 10: I do think that faith and family is what we
- 1:26:18Speaker 10: need to continue to bring to our country for its success.
- 1:26:24Speaker 3: All right, well, we're going to have to leave it there,
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: a senator, thank you so much for joining us. Thank
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: you for fighting the good fight. What a great role
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: model you are for so many young conservative people there,
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: not just a New York state, but really around the
- 1:26:37Speaker 3: country as well. God bless you keep let us know
- 1:26:39Speaker 3: what we can do to help out.
- 1:26:41Speaker 10: Thank you so much, Todd, God bless.
- 1:26:43Speaker 3: All Right, there you go, Senator ken Zanari Fitzpatrick out
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: of New York, and I love I love having these
- 1:26:49Speaker 3: kinds of conversations everybody, because you know, a lot of
- 1:26:53Speaker 3: folks think, oh, well New York is just just a
- 1:26:55Speaker 3: bunch of liberals. No they're not. As a matter of fact,
- 1:26:58Speaker 3: when you just drive out of New York City, you
- 1:27:01Speaker 3: may as well be in like Alabama. People are driving
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: pickup trucks and have shotguns and farms and they talk funny.
- 1:27:09Speaker 3: But no, it's they're good people, is what I've tried
- 1:27:12Speaker 3: to tell you. All Right, we've got to take a
- 1:27:15Speaker 3: break here and again, if you have a financial question
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: that you would like to ask our guys, give us
- 1:27:21Speaker 3: a call if you don't want to go on air,
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: that's okay. You can call and we'll take your question
- 1:27:24Speaker 3: and ask it on your behalf. Our telephone number nine
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. That's
- 1:27:31Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
- 1:27:34Speaker 3: This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back everybody.
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: This is the Todd Sterns Radio Show. Honored to have
- 1:27:53Speaker 3: you with us today. I want to play some audio,
- 1:27:57Speaker 3: this coming again from how Manique Alexander, who is the
- 1:28:02Speaker 3: spokesman for Carmelo Anthony's family, talking about the verdige in
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: the aftermath, cut twenty seven.
- 1:28:10Speaker 16: Please it lets us know that we are not going
- 1:28:13Speaker 16: to be afforded the same laws as anybody else. And
- 1:28:17Speaker 16: I give a damn about nobody that feels like I'm
- 1:28:21Speaker 16: playing the race pard here. For four hundred years, our
- 1:28:24Speaker 16: people have been at the liberty and have had to
- 1:28:28Speaker 16: suffer at the liberty of these boss. We'm speaking facts
- 1:28:32Speaker 16: because of that blood of slavery.
- 1:28:34Speaker 12: Is in my blood.
- 1:28:36Speaker 16: And it's not for you to look at me and
- 1:28:38Speaker 16: say I'm playing the race part. I'm just a black
- 1:28:40Speaker 16: man living in America.
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: The fact supports that.
- 1:28:46Speaker 16: You say I'm upset, tell you I'm upset. I respected
- 1:28:52Speaker 16: this process, but we're gonna fight like hell to make
- 1:28:55Speaker 16: sure that Tyley County knows that Carmelo Anthony is not
- 1:28:59Speaker 16: going to go behind you. I want to thank all
- 1:29:03Speaker 16: of the people who traveled across this.
- 1:29:06Speaker 28: Country the almost done, to all of the media's communities, supporters,
- 1:29:11Speaker 28: and people who have taken Forrmelo Anthony as their home baby.
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: All right, there you go, So ladies and gentlemen, it is.
- 1:29:25Speaker 3: It's a bad situation. Look, do I think they're gonna
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: be riots of this. I don't think so, because I'd
- 1:29:30Speaker 3: like to think that maybe perhaps the average black person
- 1:29:34Speaker 3: in America would see this for what it really is.
- 1:29:36Speaker 3: But you know, with these professional race agitators, they get
- 1:29:39Speaker 3: out there and it's just non stop. You know, they're
- 1:29:44Speaker 3: wanting people, They're wanting people to rise up. Here's Dallas
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: attorney Thelma Anderson cut twenty four.
- 1:29:53Speaker 29: First and foremost, the one thing that I would ask
- 1:29:57Speaker 29: for people to do at this moment is pray for
- 1:30:00Speaker 29: the Anthony family because they have been legally lynched for
- 1:30:04Speaker 29: the last year, and more so by this slaughterhouse of
- 1:30:10Speaker 29: a courthouse. As well as the family of the Medcalfs.
- 1:30:15Speaker 29: So the energy right now is their white supremacy. They
- 1:30:22Speaker 29: have shown up to be the pigs that they display
- 1:30:26Speaker 29: with hate. They are celebrating the loss of life and
- 1:30:32Speaker 29: a loss of freedom. So that's the energy.
- 1:30:36Speaker 10: We have a devastated.
- 1:30:38Speaker 29: Family who didn't know that they was going to have
- 1:30:42Speaker 29: to let their son go back into a holdover because
- 1:30:46Speaker 29: we have an overzealous prosecutor who lied throughout this trial,
- 1:30:51Speaker 29: who put on liars as witnesses in order to be
- 1:30:58Speaker 29: a saving grace for the community so that they can
- 1:31:02Speaker 29: win an election. That's what it feels like right now.
- 1:31:06Speaker 29: What I heard from this man today is indicative of
- 1:31:12Speaker 29: why it's important that it's people that look like us
- 1:31:16Speaker 29: that are in courtrooms like that. This man disregarded human life.
- 1:31:22Speaker 29: The entire trial looked he in boke race. He equated
- 1:31:28Speaker 29: Dallas County as being the ghetto, appost to Frisco being safe.
- 1:31:33Speaker 29: They propaganda a photo of the deceased with black people
- 1:31:38Speaker 29: around praying saying this is community. They use us as
- 1:31:41Speaker 29: a prop in order to pitch their lynching. This man
- 1:31:47Speaker 29: has been known to be an over zealous prosecutor when
- 1:31:49Speaker 29: it comes to us. He don't he see us as
- 1:31:54Speaker 29: what was the statement at that free labor that's what
- 1:31:59Speaker 29: he sees. So I'm not surprised that this prosecutor, who
- 1:32:04Speaker 29: has ethical, unethical, unethical background would get up there and
- 1:32:11Speaker 29: asks for the max when he know that this was
- 1:32:14Speaker 29: self defense.
- 1:32:16Speaker 3: Well there you have it. And again the point of
- 1:32:18Speaker 3: this is, this is an educated woman here out there saying,
- 1:32:21Speaker 3: what is that legally lynched? Called the white people pigs?
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: And that's not I mean when you look at all
- 1:32:30Speaker 3: the other things. I mean, there's so much audio that
- 1:32:33Speaker 3: we could have played, but we can't play much of
- 1:32:35Speaker 3: the language on air. And it's folks, this is a
- 1:32:40Speaker 3: dangerous time in America and we have got to step
- 1:32:44Speaker 3: back from the abyss here. I will say that quite frankly,
- 1:32:48Speaker 3: it is a more than fair verdict thirty five years
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: he killed a kid in cold blood. And by the way,
- 1:32:55Speaker 3: a lot of the eyewitnesses that testified in this trial
- 1:32:58Speaker 3: happened to be black teenage who are open and honest
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: and shared exactly what they saw and said exactly this
- 1:33:05Speaker 3: is how it went down. My question to you is
- 1:33:07Speaker 3: do you believe this is a fair verdict? Do you
- 1:33:10Speaker 3: are you satisfied with what happened there in Frisco, Texas.
- 1:33:17Speaker 3: But they're really trying here to make this some sort
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: of a national George Floyd Trayvon Martin moment, when in
- 1:33:24Speaker 3: fact it's it's not and no, it's not about race.
- 1:33:29Speaker 3: But it is about race because the other side always
- 1:33:32Speaker 3: makes it about race. And therefore you cannot back down,
- 1:33:35Speaker 3: you cannot shirk your responsibility. As difficult as those conversations are,
- 1:33:40Speaker 3: you still have to have those conversations. Our telephone number
- 1:33:43Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 1:33:46Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 1:33:49Speaker 3: I want you to go to the website. During the break.
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: I've written an essay about this. We've included a lot
- 1:33:55Speaker 3: of the videos so you can just see it for yourself.
- 1:33:58Speaker 3: If you think we're we're over exaggerating the level of vitriol,
- 1:34:03Speaker 3: just watch the videos for yourself. We've got all of
- 1:34:05Speaker 3: that information for you compiled at Todd Stearns dot com.
- 1:34:09Speaker 3: All right, hang tight, Strategic Financial Partners on the way.
- 1:34:12Speaker 3: Give us a call if you've got a money question.
- 1:34:15Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six to zero five, nine two six.
- 1:34:18Speaker 3: We'll be right back.
- 1:34:30Speaker 18: WHOA whoam.
- 1:34:36Speaker 3: All right, welcome back everybody. Let's just go to the
- 1:34:38Speaker 3: phones real quick. Here, Mike in clear Lake City, Texas,
- 1:34:42Speaker 3: listening to us on Patriot Talk nine to twenty One's
- 1:34:44Speaker 3: to win on the Carmelo Anthony. Mike, what's your take
- 1:34:47Speaker 3: on all of that?
- 1:34:48Speaker 30: Well, I'll look at it. The Rick Chow, the gas
- 1:34:52Speaker 30: station of owners. Week before last, he went through the
- 1:34:56Speaker 30: ringer because he killed the black kid over a bottle
- 1:34:59Speaker 30: of water, having a conniption fit over that. Well, Austin
- 1:35:02Speaker 30: METCV got killed over a push. It never ceases to
- 1:35:06Speaker 30: amaze me how the narrative in the victim and the perpetrator,
- 1:35:10Speaker 30: it all changes based on which side of the fence
- 1:35:14Speaker 30: a certain race is only it's.
- 1:35:17Speaker 3: You know that. It's an excellent point. And I mean
- 1:35:19Speaker 3: what should have been, I mean, at the very worst,
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: a fight or just a push back and forth. It
- 1:35:25Speaker 3: was the response was way out out of line. And
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: I think the prosecution made that point very clearly. And
- 1:35:33Speaker 3: again they saw a lot of things that we have
- 1:35:35Speaker 3: not seen, including the actual video, and I think that
- 1:35:39Speaker 3: was whatever was in that video was damning enough to
- 1:35:43Speaker 3: lead them to unanimously find this guy guilty.
- 1:35:46Speaker 30: Well, I went to racially mixed school system. High school,
- 1:35:51Speaker 30: it was broke down, maybe fifty percent white, forty percent black,
- 1:35:55Speaker 30: ten percent brown, and there was racial tension all the time.
- 1:35:59Speaker 30: And we fought and we fought, and then it was
- 1:36:03Speaker 30: over and everything was cool. Nobody ever pulled a knife
- 1:36:06Speaker 30: or a gun or ganged up on anybody. It's a
- 1:36:10Speaker 30: different day in a different time now.
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: Well, it certainly is, Mike, and well said, and well stated,
- 1:36:16Speaker 3: thank you for calling in. By the way last night
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: in Memphis. One of the craziest stories, and I actually
- 1:36:21Speaker 3: loved this story. Two construction workers, they're trying to make it.
- 1:36:24Speaker 3: They're working on a house in a rough neighborhood. Teenager
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: comes up and points a gun at the back of
- 1:36:30Speaker 3: their one of the guy's heads and said, give me
- 1:36:33Speaker 3: your keys. The guy turns around, grabs the kid's gun.
- 1:36:37Speaker 3: The other construction worker jumps in. They literally tie the
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: bad guy, the eighteen year old, to a post on
- 1:36:45Speaker 3: the front porch, and called the cops and the neighbors.
- 1:36:48Speaker 3: The neighbors were so excited and they said, hey, look
- 1:36:51Speaker 3: the construction workers giving them a big, a big shout
- 1:36:54Speaker 3: out because they said they did the work. So the
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: cops didn't have to so good job. Well, ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: I love this time of the week. Every Wednesday, Adam Martin,
- 1:37:08Speaker 3: who is a financial advisor for Strategic Financial Partners, drops
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: by h and even though it's like three hundred and
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: twenty degrees outside, Adam, good to see you today.
- 1:37:17Speaker 24: It's good seeing you too. I'm assuming that kid lost
- 1:37:20Speaker 24: all of his street cred once he got tied to
- 1:37:22Speaker 24: a post.
- 1:37:23Speaker 3: That's kind of embarrassing. Then the neighbors are driving by,
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: you know, it's good for those guys. Good for those guys.
- 1:37:33Speaker 3: Strategic Financial Partners dot com. Our telephone number nine oh
- 1:37:36Speaker 3: one two six zero two. I'm sorry, that's your number.
- 1:37:40Speaker 3: We'll give out your number at a moment, but if
- 1:37:41Speaker 3: you have a question, nine oh one two six zero
- 1:37:44Speaker 3: five five nine two sick Dylan, what's our telephone number?
- 1:37:48Speaker 5: That's it.
- 1:37:49Speaker 3: It's been one of those days, so Adam, we want
- 1:37:55Speaker 3: to start with Dylan, who actually has a financial question.
- 1:37:59Speaker 3: I'm very excited at this.
- 1:38:00Speaker 24: Okay, hit me with it.
- 1:38:01Speaker 21: Yeah. So I'm very new to the stock market, some
- 1:38:04Speaker 21: would say a novice. I haven't invested at all, and
- 1:38:07Speaker 21: so coming up on this Friday, we have possibly one
- 1:38:10Speaker 21: of the biggest IPOs in history. With SpaceX, they're pricing
- 1:38:15Speaker 21: at one hundred and thirty five dollars a share, aiming for,
- 1:38:18Speaker 21: you know, a massive valuation of one point seven seven
- 1:38:21Speaker 21: trillion dollars. I want to know, is this is this
- 1:38:26Speaker 21: something that everyday investors should be excited about jumping into
- 1:38:30Speaker 21: or should we be more cautious about it on IPO
- 1:38:34Speaker 21: like when it opens.
- 1:38:35Speaker 24: That's a fantastic question. And I'm going to start by
- 1:38:38Speaker 24: saying this is not any kind of recommendation, and I
- 1:38:41Speaker 24: want to put my advisor cap on here and say,
- 1:38:44Speaker 24: the future is artificial intelligence. You know, we know that,
- 1:38:48Speaker 24: we know we're at the infant stages of it. What
- 1:38:50Speaker 24: I would say is proceed with caution at the IPO.
- 1:38:54Speaker 24: Reason being, we make recommendations based off of historical performance
- 1:38:59Speaker 24: and that's what we look at. Price to earnings, we
- 1:39:01Speaker 24: look at profitability. We don't know what SpaceX is going
- 1:39:05Speaker 24: to be able to generate in the way of profits
- 1:39:07Speaker 24: or revenue, so buying at the IPO it's a bit
- 1:39:10Speaker 24: of a gamble, even though we know that the AI
- 1:39:13Speaker 24: is going to be the future. And that's Elon Musk.
- 1:39:16Speaker 24: Everything he touches turns to gold. We don't want to
- 1:39:19Speaker 24: buy it, and then all of a sudden we find
- 1:39:20Speaker 24: out SpaceX is a big bust, and then that investment
- 1:39:23Speaker 24: that you thought would send you into retirement early is
- 1:39:25Speaker 24: actually going to make you work twenty more years longer.
- 1:39:28Speaker 24: So I would say monitor it when it goes public,
- 1:39:32Speaker 24: keep an eye on it, put it on your watch list,
- 1:39:35Speaker 24: on the stock app on your phone, and just kind
- 1:39:37Speaker 24: of look at it. How are they generating revenue? Are
- 1:39:39Speaker 24: they profitable? And then start you know, looking at how
- 1:39:43Speaker 24: that price shifts, does it correct, does it come back down?
- 1:39:46Speaker 24: So that's when we always look at it and say, Okay,
- 1:39:48Speaker 24: now all the beauty, the beautiful IPO is gone and
- 1:39:53Speaker 24: we're back to reality. That's when we can really start
- 1:39:55Speaker 24: to look at a reasonable share price and that may
- 1:39:58Speaker 24: be a good entry point.
- 1:40:00Speaker 5: Yeah, it's good.
- 1:40:00Speaker 21: I mean I was wondering too, because like SpaceX encapsulates
- 1:40:03Speaker 21: XAI and encapsulates you know, starlink is a thing because
- 1:40:07Speaker 21: of it, and you know the things that he's saying
- 1:40:09Speaker 21: he's gonna do is just insane. You know, the AI
- 1:40:12Speaker 21: orbiting Earth like that's something you know, unhuman.
- 1:40:15Speaker 24: Well, that's that's another factor to think about too. Is
- 1:40:18Speaker 24: no one's ever done this before, right, so can he
- 1:40:21Speaker 24: do it? I'm confident he can. I've seen him launch rockets,
- 1:40:23Speaker 24: I see what he did with Tesla and what he's
- 1:40:26Speaker 24: done with X formally Twitter. I mean, he is a
- 1:40:29Speaker 24: very brilliant mind and if anybody can be successful in
- 1:40:33Speaker 24: that venture, it's him. But as far as looking at
- 1:40:36Speaker 24: buying into a stock, I never buy anything at the IPO,
- 1:40:40Speaker 24: and I would say that that's for some somebody's considering it.
- 1:40:44Speaker 24: Just give it time so you can quantify it and
- 1:40:46Speaker 24: then before you make a decision.
- 1:40:48Speaker 3: Cool, all right, So Adam, be sure to send that
- 1:40:52Speaker 3: bill directly.
- 1:40:53Speaker 24: To Della In for I was doing pro bon and
- 1:40:57Speaker 24: work today, No pro boto.
- 1:41:00Speaker 3: Adam Martin joining us a financial advisor with Strategic Financial Partners.
- 1:41:04Speaker 3: Strategicfinancial Partners dot com and you got to go check
- 1:41:07Speaker 3: out their website. All sorts of great information on there.
- 1:41:10Speaker 3: And Adam, I want to pivot because you know, this
- 1:41:13Speaker 3: is all about protecting American families and one of the
- 1:41:15Speaker 3: ways we can do that is making sure that you're
- 1:41:18Speaker 3: prepared in the event something very bad happens, and a
- 1:41:22Speaker 3: lot of that is having life insurance. And I am
- 1:41:24Speaker 3: just shocked by the number of people who don't have
- 1:41:25Speaker 3: life insurance. Me too.
- 1:41:28Speaker 24: And one of the things that I talk to a
- 1:41:29Speaker 24: lot of people about that really irks me in today's
- 1:41:32Speaker 24: age is you see it time and time again. We
- 1:41:34Speaker 24: see a loss of life and then the next thing
- 1:41:37Speaker 24: that follows is a GoFundMe account. And yeah, for us
- 1:41:40Speaker 24: as advisors, we look at that and it's a sad
- 1:41:43Speaker 24: situation because there's a loss of life. But then it
- 1:41:46Speaker 24: just makes it even more sad to see that they
- 1:41:48Speaker 24: didn't be proactive. They weren't talking about how do I
- 1:41:52Speaker 24: if this event happens, how can I protect what we have?
- 1:41:55Speaker 24: And they don't need to go out there and ask
- 1:41:57Speaker 24: people to.
- 1:41:58Speaker 3: Give them money. I mean, just think about this for
- 1:41:59Speaker 3: a MITUAE. I mean, you're let's say, you know, you're
- 1:42:01Speaker 3: a young family, and this is what really concerns me
- 1:42:04Speaker 3: is you do have a lot of young families and
- 1:42:05Speaker 3: they do not have life insurance. But let's just say
- 1:42:08Speaker 3: that you know, you're living pay tex to paycheck and
- 1:42:11Speaker 3: the you know your spouse dies all of a sudden,
- 1:42:13Speaker 3: you're without income, you still have to pay bills, you
- 1:42:16Speaker 3: still got to pay a mortgage, all of those those
- 1:42:18Speaker 3: expenses are still there, but the paycheck is not. That's right.
- 1:42:22Speaker 24: People get accustomed to running a joint household with joint income,
- 1:42:27Speaker 24: and then they put this off thinking, oh, well, I've
- 1:42:29Speaker 24: got time, I'm young, i'm healthy, I don't have to
- 1:42:31Speaker 24: worry about this. But they just kind of put the
- 1:42:33Speaker 24: thought of, you know, what if I'm in a car accident,
- 1:42:36Speaker 24: or what if I do come down with a debilitating
- 1:42:39Speaker 24: or a deathly illness. They don't think about those things
- 1:42:42Speaker 24: until it's too late. And generally, what happens when a
- 1:42:45Speaker 24: situation like that arises is we typically see what we
- 1:42:48Speaker 24: call a fire sell. So they're trying to unload the
- 1:42:52Speaker 24: house just to get out from underneath it. They're selling
- 1:42:54Speaker 24: assets that they had tried to build up that we're
- 1:42:56Speaker 24: going to be allocated for retirement. They're not funding kids
- 1:42:59Speaker 24: retiring education goals. So the what we like to call
- 1:43:03Speaker 24: life insurance when we do planning is a foundation, a
- 1:43:06Speaker 24: strong foundation. You'd never want to build a beautiful home
- 1:43:10Speaker 24: on a week foundation. And that's where it all starts.
- 1:43:12Speaker 3: And again, life insurance, how does it actually help protect
- 1:43:16Speaker 3: a family's lifestyle and their long term goals like college
- 1:43:20Speaker 3: for the kids, for example, things life app.
- 1:43:22Speaker 24: So here's typically what we do when we evaluate life
- 1:43:26Speaker 24: insurance need. We base that off of your income, typically
- 1:43:29Speaker 24: ten times your earned income. And that's not an arbitrary
- 1:43:33Speaker 24: number that we just say, oh, you need a million
- 1:43:35Speaker 24: dollars worth of coverage. We actually quantify say this is
- 1:43:37Speaker 24: adequate for two reasons. One, if something happens, we can
- 1:43:40Speaker 24: adequately replace an income for ten years. The other is
- 1:43:44Speaker 24: that we have the amount of money that comes in
- 1:43:47Speaker 24: that can pay off debt. Though you don't have to
- 1:43:49Speaker 24: fire or sell the house, we don't have to give
- 1:43:52Speaker 24: up the college education funds for the kids. We get
- 1:43:55Speaker 24: those plans that you know, a life event happen, it
- 1:43:57Speaker 24: gives you time to grieve, but then it also keeps
- 1:44:00Speaker 24: your goals on track.
- 1:44:02Speaker 3: It's this is good advice from Adam Martin from Strategic
- 1:44:05Speaker 3: Financial Partners Strategic Financial Partners dot com. You know a
- 1:44:10Speaker 3: lot of people don't think you can do this, but
- 1:44:12Speaker 3: you can't actually get life insurance what to protect your income?
- 1:44:15Speaker 3: Is that?
- 1:44:15Speaker 7: Right?
- 1:44:15Speaker 20: Yeah?
- 1:44:16Speaker 24: I don't want to mistake that with like disability insurance
- 1:44:20Speaker 24: because that is typically the income replacement type. Right, we're
- 1:44:23Speaker 24: talking about a life or death situation on the life
- 1:44:26Speaker 24: insurance side of stuff. So yes, there's disability insurance that
- 1:44:30Speaker 24: if you are not able to go to work, there
- 1:44:32Speaker 24: is a policy out there that can step in and
- 1:44:34Speaker 24: pay you a portion all of your income, but a
- 1:44:36Speaker 24: portion of it. But this is primarily around if you
- 1:44:39Speaker 24: lose somebody that you're going through life with and you're
- 1:44:42Speaker 24: dependent on their income, if that income suddenly went away,
- 1:44:46Speaker 24: what would you do? So I always I don't like
- 1:44:48Speaker 24: to kill people tomorrow to say, yesterday somebody died and
- 1:44:53Speaker 24: they're no longer with us. Could you continue to afford
- 1:44:56Speaker 24: that that car?
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: No?
- 1:44:57Speaker 24: Could you continue to pay that house note? Could you
- 1:44:59Speaker 24: can and you to fund that five to two nine
- 1:45:01Speaker 24: account for your kids? Typically the answer is no, And
- 1:45:04Speaker 24: that's it's a simple soft. You need life insurance.
- 1:45:06Speaker 3: So if you have a question about life insurance, give
- 1:45:09Speaker 3: us a call. Nine oh one two six zero five
- 1:45:12Speaker 3: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero
- 1:45:15Speaker 3: five nine two six. So what happens, Let's talk about
- 1:45:18Speaker 3: what happens financially. You've got a family, primary breadwinner passes away,
- 1:45:22Speaker 3: car accident, whatever incident on the job site. What happens
- 1:45:27Speaker 3: if there is no coverage there?
- 1:45:29Speaker 24: Well, in today's age. We typically see a social media
- 1:45:33Speaker 24: post about a GoFundMe help this family. They didn't have
- 1:45:37Speaker 24: any life insurance, and that's so that they don't have
- 1:45:39Speaker 24: to do some kind of fire cell like off, you know,
- 1:45:42Speaker 24: get off underneath the mortgage that they can't afford, or
- 1:45:45Speaker 24: they start making knee jerk reactions because they're in a tight,
- 1:45:49Speaker 24: desperate situation, and so we don't think clearly. Obviously, when
- 1:45:54Speaker 24: we're grieving over the loss of a loved one, we
- 1:45:56Speaker 24: start making irrational decisions that could spiral your fundinancial goals.
- 1:46:01Speaker 24: This is simply a tool in the toolbox that steps
- 1:46:04Speaker 24: in pays the beneficiary a tax free death benefits, so
- 1:46:08Speaker 24: you're not paying taxes on the death benefit from a
- 1:46:10Speaker 24: life insurance policy, and that immediate lump sum of money
- 1:46:14Speaker 24: is used to pay off the mortgage. Could you feel
- 1:46:17Speaker 24: comfortable about I can at least keep the house the
- 1:46:20Speaker 24: roof over my head because I don't have to worry
- 1:46:22Speaker 24: about paying that monthly mortgage. You know, you may decide
- 1:46:24Speaker 24: to get rid of a car because you don't need
- 1:46:26Speaker 24: it because there's no longer a spouse driving it. But
- 1:46:30Speaker 24: we don't want you fire selling things just because you don't.
- 1:46:33Speaker 3: Have the assets. So I've heard that just having the
- 1:46:36Speaker 3: insurances really gives you a peace of mind. Is that true?
- 1:46:40Speaker 24: Absolutely, it gives you a peace of mind because if
- 1:46:42Speaker 24: you don't have one dollar in the stock market, but
- 1:46:44Speaker 24: you've got a half a million dollars worth of life insurance,
- 1:46:46Speaker 24: you can go to bed soundly at night knowing if
- 1:46:49Speaker 24: something happens, at least my family's taken care of.

- 1:47:49Speaker 3: Last night we were at the the Memphis National Golf
- 1:47:54Speaker 3: Golf Club, and what a beautiful facility out there in
- 1:47:59Speaker 3: where is it calling? It's an eastmymph, it's way out there.
- 1:48:03Speaker 3: It's in the burbs anyway. The Republican Party of Shelby County,
- 1:48:07Speaker 3: the Women's Club there, they hosted a big event and
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: I was one of the keynote speakers. And Butch Wilmore,

- 1:48:19Speaker 3: sent SpaceX up and brought him back. And Wilkins was
- 1:48:25Speaker 3: the keynote speaker last night. I just cannot say enough
- 1:48:28Speaker 3: good things about the Republican ladies here in Memphis, Tennessee,
- 1:48:31Speaker 3: in this area, Dylan. They gave me some it's very
- 1:48:36Speaker 3: kind hearted. They gave me a gift card to Whole Foods.
- 1:48:39Speaker 5: Oh boy. Yeah, well, now you gotta go.
- 1:48:42Speaker 3: You know, the whole lifestyle change everybody. The problem is
- 1:48:45Speaker 3: when you talk about your problems on the radio, everybody
- 1:48:48Speaker 3: knows your business. That is the downside, and everybody has
- 1:48:51Speaker 3: a solution.
- 1:48:52Speaker 5: Everybody knows what's best for talking.
- 1:48:53Speaker 3: It's true I got so many ideas. I mean there
- 1:48:56Speaker 3: are like I mean, I would probably fail a drug
- 1:48:58Speaker 3: test if I took all the advice I got last year.
- 1:49:03Speaker 3: But in addition to that, this is what was really funny.
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: So I get the I'm like, wow, a healthy I mean,
- 1:49:08Speaker 3: it's a great thing. It's a gift card to you know,
- 1:49:11Speaker 3: to Whole Foods. And then I got an entire box
- 1:49:16Speaker 3: of Digital's chocolates.
- 1:49:19Speaker 5: What a combination right there?
- 1:49:21Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely so. Just again, I'm living a
- 1:49:26Speaker 3: healthy lifestyle. So I did have some of the chocolate
- 1:49:28Speaker 3: last night, but I drank it with two percent milk.
- 1:49:31Speaker 5: There you go.
- 1:49:32Speaker 3: See it kind of balances out.
- 1:49:33Speaker 5: It's a balanced diet. But anyway, I.
- 1:49:35Speaker 3: Was Becky Digital was talking about it's this is our
- 1:49:38Speaker 3: favorite candy shop and they're the official, the official chocolate
- 1:49:41Speaker 3: heer of the Ton Stearns Radio show and they've been
- 1:49:43Speaker 3: around for what over one hundred years, the same family
- 1:49:46Speaker 3: in Memphis, and Becky says that, yes, chocolate is in
- 1:49:49Speaker 3: fact heart healthy.
- 1:49:50Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:49:51Speaker 21: I mean my favorite thing from them are the chocolate
- 1:49:53Speaker 21: strawberries I do for Mother's Day. It is one of
- 1:49:55Speaker 21: the best things.
- 1:49:55Speaker 3: See there you go, it's healthy.

- 1:50:03Speaker 5: not healthy.
- 1:50:03Speaker 3: Fifty to fifty, right, what do you got to lose?
- 1:50:05Speaker 3: Except and then I didn't realize she did this. There
- 1:50:07Speaker 3: are little chocolates in the shape of the state of Tennessee.
- 1:50:10Speaker 5: Wow, that's clever.
- 1:50:13Speaker 3: Love that. So thank you, Thank you, Republican ladies. So
- 1:50:16Speaker 3: you're not only eating healthy, but you're giving me a
- 1:50:18Speaker 3: nice treat as well. So anyway, wonderful night. Butch and
- 1:50:22Speaker 3: his wife Deanna just their Salt of the Earth people.
- 1:50:25Speaker 3: And you know this guy, he wrote a book called
- 1:50:28Speaker 3: Stuck in Space, and so he gave his speech last

- 1:50:33Speaker 3: delivered a home of a standing room only crowd, huge,
- 1:50:36Speaker 3: huge crowd last night. So just a lot of fun.

- 1:50:44Speaker 3: tour Todd Are you coming to our town? Yes, we
- 1:50:49Speaker 3: are working on that. So here's the deal. If you're

- 1:50:54Speaker 3: and do an event, then you've got to reach out
- 1:50:56Speaker 3: and let us know and we'll put that on the calendar.
- 1:50:59Speaker 3: We're going to be very busy. The book comes out
- 1:51:01Speaker 3: August the eleventh, and we're going to be running and
- 1:51:03Speaker 3: gunning from that point on, already lining up speaking engagements.
- 1:51:08Speaker 3: We're going to be in a lot of the big
- 1:51:09Speaker 3: cities and towns around the country, in small towns as well,
- 1:51:13Speaker 3: but you need to let us know ahead of time.
- 1:51:15Speaker 3: And of course we'll be doing events in the you know,
- 1:51:17Speaker 3: in the first part of next year as well. But
- 1:51:20Speaker 3: leading up to election day we're going to be I'm
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: trying to figure out a polite way to say, we're
- 1:51:26Speaker 3: going to be busy to the wall. So as they say,
- 1:51:31Speaker 3: it's gonna be a lot of fun. And it's a
- 1:51:32Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty some on page book, so this
- 1:51:35Speaker 3: is a big read and I'm excited telling your name
- 1:51:38Speaker 3: is in the book?
- 1:51:39Speaker 5: Is it really in a good way?
- 1:51:41Speaker 3: Like you more or lessless? Ellen's is too?
- 1:51:46Speaker 5: Oh, that's very kind. I'm just don't.
- 1:51:50Speaker 3: Oh, So I told I've got to I'm sorry, I've
- 1:51:52Speaker 3: got to go back to this. I'm like, how do
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: you introduce a guy from outer space?
- 1:51:57Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 1:51:57Speaker 3: And so I said, well, I said, you know, what
- 1:51:59Speaker 3: Disco Day comes out, what Friday, and so everybody's going
- 1:52:03Speaker 3: to be talking about So everybody's talking about aliens. I said,
- 1:52:05Speaker 3: everybody's talking about aliens. I said, here's my take on
- 1:52:07Speaker 3: the aliens. I said, if they do exist, I said,
- 1:52:11Speaker 3: the aliens probably flew over California and West Hollywood and said, yeah,
- 1:52:17Speaker 3: we're not touching this planet, and then just turned right around.
- 1:52:20Speaker 3: So people seem to enjoy they I got that, got
- 1:52:23Speaker 3: a good laugh.
- 1:52:24Speaker 5: You're very clever when you speak.
- 1:52:26Speaker 3: I also said. I also told Bush that we've got
- 1:52:28Speaker 3: an intern that's literally building spaceships using using equipment that's
- 1:52:33Speaker 3: supposed to be used for the talk show.
- 1:52:35Speaker 5: They might want to check him out. He's very alien like.
- 1:52:37Speaker 3: So the reason why our stream keeps stopping because the
- 1:52:40Speaker 3: intern's building a spacecraft. That's up with that? All right, folks,
- 1:52:46Speaker 3: tomorrow noon o'clock on the radio, We will see you then,
