• 0:09
  Speaker 2: also not sleeping.

  Speaker 3: And that guy would like a word with you.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Many of you know him. Gomez votes for Damas. Of
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: course that.
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: Kevin show is going to be great.
• 0:21
  Speaker 5: The only thing that could.
• 0:21
  Speaker 6: Be greater, of course, would be that Donald show.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: We don't have that, so we have that Kevin show.

  Speaker 3: It's Kevin McCullough, Monday through Friday on That Kevin Show.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: And now, from the Connors & Sullivan Broadcast Studios, the
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: man who is not what he wants to be, but
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: is way grateful that he's not who he used to be, here's.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Alright, welcome in. Kevin McCullough, glad to have you with us.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Hope you had a great weekend. We had a pretty
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: good one at the McCullough house. We did some family
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: things and spent some time together. I even got snuck
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: in a little date night with the lovely bride. Always
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: glad to spend time refreshing and renewing over the weekend.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Spent some time in church with great people and some
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: great teaching.
• 1:49
  Speaker 7: I feel.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: More focused and more ready to start the week with
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: you when I'm able to do those simple things. And
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: we live in troubling times where I want to have
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the best focus possible. Mike Johnson said today, this is
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: his quote, France is descending into chaos because they wanted
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: open borders, just like the socialist Democrats in America. What
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: we are witnessing is a chilling warning for all Americans
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: of what happens if the radical Marxist insurgent gets their way.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: And it's not just in France. It's in Italy. It's
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: in Portugal. It's in Belgium. And they're all similar types
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: of issues. The Speaker of the House blamed the riots
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: in France on lax rules over illegal immigration. He said
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: America is not merely in a battle of political ideologies.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: It's a battle for the preservation of our civilization and
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: our freedoms and our way of life. And if the
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Marxists take control, it will be open borders and criminal
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: illegals overrunning our country, many of whom want to destroy it.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: More than 500,000 people took to the streets in various
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: cities and towns across France this weekend. About 1,800 have
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: been arrested nationwide. Over 800 of those in the capital
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: city of Paris. And I don't know exactly how this
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: is happening, but I'm going to ask some smart people
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: this week. These protests start over education and social reforms
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that. And then the next thing you know,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: there's pro-Palestinian flags and death to the West and other
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: things starting to be chanted. How are those things connected?
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: What is the connective tissue of that? And this is
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: why I'm concerned deeply about stuff in life right now.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Europe is going to have to answer this problem. Because
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: what began weeks ago as student demonstrations... Marching over the
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: decline of public services and cost of living pressures and
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: a weak economy has now metastasized into something much, much bigger.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: 2,400 people arrested just this last weekend. The Federation of
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Trade and Retail in France says that 3,000 stores were
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: hit by vandalism and looting. France has deployed 60,000 police
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and security personnel. And yet the places burn. Unions have
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: now called for nationwide strikes on November 5th, so this
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: is probably going to get worse. And multiple European governments
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: are warning their own citizens to avoid crowds and exercise
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: caution inside of France. Caution. Inside of France. France. That's
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: where we're at with this. The Prime Minister, Sébastien Le Cornu,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: has placed the blame on ultra-left radical groups.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: Huh.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: That sounds familiar. Like maybe they're being funded with a
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: George Soros check or something. I don't know. But how
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: is that much, if any, different from some of the
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: riots we've seen here in New York since Mamdani became mayor,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: or in Portland or in Seattle, where regularly the leftist
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: politicians there say, just give them whatever they want. We're
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: not even going to arrest them. Even if they carry
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: out vandalism on federal buildings, we're not going to arrest them.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: It shouldn't be considered strange that our president would weigh
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: in on it. And he did today. He put up
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: on Truth Social, the migrants have taken over France. They
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: must close the borders fast. Friends, here's the thing. You
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: may hate him. You may hate him with all your guts,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: but he's not wrong. And the reason that he's not
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: wrong has nothing to do with any single protest or
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: any single grievance. It has to do with what happens
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: when a country stops controlling who crosses its border and
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: in what numbers the And then act surprised when economic
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: frustration and cultural strain and imported ideological extremism all collide
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: in the same city square. France and Brussels, they didn't
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: get here overnight. It got there through years of policy
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: choices that treated border enforcement as something kind of embarrassing.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Now Paris looks like a country losing the argument over
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: whose streets they actually are. It doesn't stop at Belgium,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: by the way. Italy's No Meloni Day protests erupted across
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Milan and Turin and Bologna and Rome and Bari on
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: October 16th. Milan logged 271 arrests by the second day,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: most of them minors. In Portugal, Lisbon saw tens of
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: thousands of people marching over Portugal's housing crisis, demonstrators pitching
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: dozens of tents in downtown. Five countries, one autumn, the
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: same combination every time. Grievance, organized actors, and a match
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: that's just seemingly waiting to be struck. And that's why
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: what's happening here matters so much to me. Because you
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: can see all of this and you can kind of say, well,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: it's unfortunate and we're sorry that they're going through it. And,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: you know, my lovely bride and others who have a
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: great fondness for Paris have all texted or DM'd me
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: in the last couple of days and said, I can't
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: believe what's happening. Like there was a picture, I think
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: I saw it on Instagram last night, but I think
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: it's been well circulated of a drone shot high above
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Paris and all the number of fires that are emitting
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: smoke up into the sky being tolerant of this kind
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: of chaos is not good for humanity so read into
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: that whatever political message you seem to think you know
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: I'm saying What I am saying, without any question, is
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: that these protests cannot continue in this way. Not if
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: we want to see something resembling a civilized world still
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: standing on the other side of all this. Okay, more
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: on these thoughts later, especially how it comes home to America.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: I'll get to all of that. But coming up next,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: a special week of How Do We Live? Pastor Rod
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Caesar of Foundation Church here in New York and his father,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Bishop Roderick Caesar, who has been with me for such
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: a long time in the New York area, are both
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: joining me next. And I'm looking forward to it.
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: Stay tuned.
• 9:50
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: Here he is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back, Kevin McKellar. It's the Monday edition
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: of That Kevin Show. Now from New York to San
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Diego and Anchorage to Miami Beach, we're grateful to have
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: you with us. And I'm grateful that at the beginning
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: of the show, kind of in this portion of it
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: every day, we get to just stop all the noise
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: and we get to say, wait a minute, before we
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: have to think about anything else, what is it that
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: we should be basing our thoughts on? How do we live?
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: And how do we try to.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: Leave that in terms of a legacy from one generation
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: to the next. I'm really excited this week. Um, or
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: in the past couple of years, as we've done, how
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: do we live? We we've only ever had a single
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: shepherd with us for the full week. Uh, and this
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: time or sometime in the last year, uh, Rod Caesar
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: was with us. He's the lead pastor at foundation church, uh,
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: in New York city. And, uh, Rod, I, I remember
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: our discussion last year was so rich and I was
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: so grateful that you spent the week with us, but
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: you brought a friend with you this time. Um, Please
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: introduce to my national audience someone who I know he
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: had a huge impact on your life, but he may
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: not know how much of an impact he had on mine.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: And that is your amazing dad. Yes, yes.
• 11:28
  Speaker 11: Thank you, Kevin, for the opportunity to be back. And yes,
• 11:32
  Speaker 11: I'm so grateful to have my father with me, Bishop Caesar,
• 11:35
  Speaker 11: who is no stranger to our audience. Introducing to some,
• 11:40
  Speaker 11: hopefully not too many of you, but reintroducing to others,
• 11:43
  Speaker 11: My father, Bishop Roderick, our Caesar, grateful for him, for
• 11:47
  Speaker 11: his impact, not only on my life, but on those
• 11:51
  Speaker 11: that have been listening to this program over the years.
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: God, we're so grateful to have you.
• 11:57
  Speaker 11: Grateful to be celebrating another year of life and that
• 12:00
  Speaker 11: all that God's done in your ministry over the years.
• 12:03
  Speaker 11: We honor you today and we're just so thankful to
• 12:05
  Speaker 11: have you and join the conversation.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Thank you so much. And I simply say to God,
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: be the glory, great things he has done. And it's
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: all because of his doing that we are here today.
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: And I celebrate that each and every morning when I
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: awaken and I look in the mirror, know who I'm
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: looking at and know what's going on. It's all because
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: of Christ.
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: And I'm thankful.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: Bishop, when I was a much younger broadcaster, and I
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: mean much younger, um, I had rolled into New York
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: City to do a show on the local station here,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: WMCA AM 570. And I was not familiar really with
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: much of anything related to New York City, the tri-state.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: They were pulling me out of Chicago, which is a
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: completely different kind of place. And I remember getting up
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: every morning and turning on AM 570 and hearing this
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: guy preach who obviously had a love for God. But Bishop,
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I also sense that you have a deep love for
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: the English language and for good communication and the ability
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: to really express a thought in a way that I
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: feel like, and I've told people this both recently but
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: for many, many years, that may be on par with
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: any communicator in the history of the church. I honestly
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: have never heard you speak or preach where I haven't
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: been truly moved and truly challenged on so many different levels.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: But what Besides the call of God, which is obviously
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: the driving factor, what was the most motivating force for
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: you for all those years of pulpit work and really
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: putting it in such incredibly beautiful language?
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: I think my greatest motivation was to recognize that– Without
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: God's help, I wouldn't be able to do anything or
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: succeed at any mission that I attempted. Number one, I
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: had to rely totally upon him. Number two, I had
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: a good example. My father was also an excellent expositor
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: of the word, and he taught me the importance of
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: speech communication. Not just putting words together, but putting words
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: together that had substance. Less is more when you use
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: the right words. When you improperly use the language, then
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: you have to find the pillars to close the gaps
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: in your communication. But using the right words means you
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: use less energy and less effort to say the same
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: thing and to say it more profoundly. So I became
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: a practitioner of the language. And made it my business
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: to increase my communication skills consistently so that I would
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: always be on the cutting edge of speaking and communicating
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: the truth.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Well, and I would say that you accomplished that and more.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: And Rod, let me come back to you for this.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: We're going to look at Romans 12 this week. But
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: having not just your father, but your grandfather leave this
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: legacy down to you. There's no pressure on you at all.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: But the thing, the beautiful thing about it is, is
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: that you both are really deep thinkers, but you've got
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: your own kind of way of processing and of communicating.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: And I think it's just so cool how God has
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: blessed your family and called you to what you do.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Let's jump into Romans 12, because we do want to
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: ask the question, how do we live? What are we
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: looking at this week, Rod? And why are we looking
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: at it?
• 15:29
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I believe it's important that as we look to
• 15:32
  Speaker 11: look at how we're living, we need to be able
• 15:35
  Speaker 11: to live transformed, to realize that we're not living in
• 15:38
  Speaker 11: the ways that we used to, but we're walking in
• 15:41
  Speaker 11: new ways.
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: We're walking in the new life.
• 15:44
  Speaker 11: We're walking with a new hope, a new purpose, and
• 15:46
  Speaker 11: a new focus that we have through true transformation in
• 15:50
  Speaker 11: Christ Jesus. So Romans 12, 1 and 2 is going
• 15:53
  Speaker 11: to be our focus where Paul writes this. I appeal
• 15:55
  Speaker 11: to you, therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to
• 15:58
  Speaker 11: present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable
• 16:01
  Speaker 11: to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be
• 16:04
  Speaker 11: conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal
• 16:07
  Speaker 11: of your mind that by testing you may discern what
• 16:10
  Speaker 11: is the will of God, what is good, what is
• 16:12
  Speaker 11: acceptable and what is perfect.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: And that's what we want to do.
• 16:16
  Speaker 11: And that's what we hope to accomplish throughout this week
• 16:19
  Speaker 11: and in the years to follow.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So you want to focus today on what it
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: means to walk surrendered. And I'm curious, first of all,
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: as a pastor who is relatively still, I mean, you're
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: not brand new to the pulpit. You've been doing this
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: a little while, but you don't kind of have the
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: seasoning that your dad had. What does that mean to you?
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: What does that mean? How do you read those words?
• 16:43
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I believe in walking surrendered, Paul opens up and says,
• 16:47
  Speaker 11: present your bodies as a living sacrifice. And so for me,
• 16:50
  Speaker 11: I think, and for all believers, what I feel for
• 16:53
  Speaker 11: me in my particular context, it means walking in a
• 16:57
  Speaker 11: way where my decisions and the things that I have
• 17:01
  Speaker 11: to make, the things that I have to execute and
• 17:04
  Speaker 11: make decisions on, I'm not doing this without the help
• 17:08
  Speaker 11: of the Holy Spirit. I'm not doing this and leaning
• 17:10
  Speaker 11: on my own understanding, but I'm executing and I'm being
• 17:15
  Speaker 11: able to accomplish things with the help of the Lord
• 17:18
  Speaker 11: on my side, presenting my bodies as a living sacrifice.
• 17:21
  Speaker 11: That means that I'm doing this in surrender, presenting my
• 17:25
  Speaker 11: body as a living sacrifice with what I do, with
• 17:28
  Speaker 11: how I move, with how I maneuver, with the conversations
• 17:30
  Speaker 11: that I have.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: Just realizing that this is bigger than me.
• 17:34
  Speaker 11: It's not about me reaching a certain height or a
• 17:37
  Speaker 11: certain platform, but it's about being able to give God
• 17:40
  Speaker 11: glory and being a living sacrifice with what I'm called
• 17:43
  Speaker 11: to do day after day.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Bishop, I want to piggyback on that thought. When
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: you think of walking surrendered, what does that phrase mean
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: to you?
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: It means that I've given up my rights and that
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: I'm striving to be dead to what the world offers
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: so that I can be fully alive to what Christ offers.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: And I give him the first fruits of every morning
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: with the sacrifice of praise. I recognize that if I'm
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: going to be successful in the course of this day,
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: I have to surrender completely to the Lord and walk
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: according to his mandates for my life. And I have
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: to make sure that I'm where I'm supposed to be
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: in my walk with him at any given point. It's
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: important to recognize how easy it is to cross the
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: line and flip-flop and how devastating it is to you
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: and to people around you. You have to really be
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: consistent in the walk, and that consistency is costly. It
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: costs you your freedom of choice, as it were. Even
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: though you have freedom of choice, your choices have to
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: be tempered by what God has spoken into your life
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: according to his word so that it's not my will
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: but thy will be done.
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: And we know that our life is in step with
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: God's purpose, His plan, and His will. That being the case,
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: we make good decisions, and they glorify God, and they
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: honor our Christ, and they're fueled by the power of
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: the Holy Spirit.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what Paul is touching on here, Pastor Rod.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: I'll give you the final thought on that.
• 19:29
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I think it really boils down to having that
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: surrendered aspect. And doing your due diligence to be able
• 19:38
  Speaker 11: to examine your faith and to be able to, you know,
• 19:42
  Speaker 11: be sure of what is going on and what you believe,
• 19:46
  Speaker 11: but then also having that aspect of surrender, because what
• 19:49
  Speaker 11: we ultimately. want oftentimes is control to be able to know, hey,
• 19:53
  Speaker 11: this is what's going on. This is how I can
• 19:55
  Speaker 11: really declare that this is what I'm standing on. And
• 20:00
  Speaker 11: this is how I want to be able to have
• 20:02
  Speaker 11: control and understand everything. But sometimes we have to be
• 20:05
  Speaker 11: able to have faith, even in the things that we
• 20:07
  Speaker 11: don't know, the substance of things hoped for, the evidence
• 20:11
  Speaker 11: of things we don't see. And that calls for us
• 20:14
  Speaker 11: surrendering and saying, you know what, God, I'm going to
• 20:16
  Speaker 11: continue to have faith.
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: Even in the aspects of my faith that are difficult.
• 20:20
  Speaker 11: And so I think it's important for us to come
• 20:22
  Speaker 11: to those decisions and really walk in a way that
• 20:25
  Speaker 11: ultimately gives God glory after we've done the work.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, such good stuff, guys. I'm sorry we're out
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: of time. But that's just Monday. We've got the whole
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: week together. Thank you for making it. Bishop Caesar, Pastor
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Rod Caesar of Foundation Church in New York, thank you
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: for all that you've done. We'll talk to you again tomorrow.
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: Thank you so much.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: You got it. Kevin McKellar coming right back from New York.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Don't go away.
• 20:46
  Speaker 9: Stick around for more of That Kevin next. Here he
• 21:09
  Speaker 9: is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: Welcome back, Kevin McCullough.
• 21:12
  Speaker 9: The phone number I want you to memorize is 888-342-1010, 888-342-1010.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: You may have heard me give that phone number a
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: time or two because over the last 10 years, we've
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: used that phone number as kind of a secret code.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: to help slaves be liberated, to help captives be set
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: free with a group called Christian Solidarity International. And because
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: of our efforts, you just have to know, there's like
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: 3,800 women and children that have been set free and
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: slaves that have been liberated over the last 10 years
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: or so, according to the records at Christian Solidarity International.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: Just those of you that have done it with us,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: that's how many human lives we've actually set free. And
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: that encourages me, friends. And the reason I love doing
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: it right now is because what could be a better
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Christmas present for the end of the year than to
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: tell a woman who has lived her entire life in
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: abject slavery that you're going to have freedom? Todd Chapman
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: is back with us from Christian Solidarity International. And Todd,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: I think it's hard for us to relate because I've
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: never really suffered anything like that. I don't have the
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: first clue how desperate how painful, how awful these slaves
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: have been treated because I've never, my worst experiences on
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: planet earth, you know, all of them, my entire life
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: added up probably wouldn't match like one hour of what
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: they experienced in slavery. And they've done it for dozens
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: of years in some cases, but to know that as
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: dark as that is, that our gift can bring them
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: into a place that is full of hope and light
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: and joy and wonder and This Christmas season. That gets
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: me pretty excited.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it is pretty awesome.
• 22:59
  Speaker 12: I think it's hard for us in general here in
• 23:01
  Speaker 12: America to wrap our minds around. I mean, we kind
• 23:04
  Speaker 12: of get it intellectually, but I mean, on a very visceral,
• 23:07
  Speaker 12: emotional level to wrap our minds around the fact that
• 23:11
  Speaker 12: today in 2026, there are actually more slaves on planet Earth,
• 23:16
  Speaker 12: more people enslaved than at any other time in human history.
• 23:20
  Speaker 12: Like for us, because we're so sheltered and we don't
• 23:22
  Speaker 12: really see that, you know, I think if you really
• 23:27
  Speaker 12: think about that for a second, it's pretty staggering. And
• 23:29
  Speaker 12: I don't know, for me as a follower of Christ,
• 23:32
  Speaker 12: it really does. I'm very convicted, as I believe we
• 23:36
  Speaker 12: all should be, you know, far be it for me
• 23:38
  Speaker 12: to impose my worldview on you. But I think, you know,
• 23:43
  Speaker 12: if we do look at the Word of God and
• 23:45
  Speaker 12: we recognize that, man, God came, Jesus said it, I
• 23:48
  Speaker 12: have come. to set captives free, to declare freedom for
• 23:52
  Speaker 12: the prisoners. And we are called to do that. So
• 23:55
  Speaker 12: from a ministry standpoint, man, we are in the optimal
• 23:58
  Speaker 12: time to make a huge difference globally and individually just
• 24:03
  Speaker 12: by setting captives free.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: But I get it. It's overwhelming. It's like, well, I
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: wouldn't know where to begin.
• 24:07
  Speaker 12: That's why what we're inviting you to do through CSI
• 24:10
  Speaker 12: is so powerful because we're telling you exactly what you
• 24:14
  Speaker 12: can do who it's going to free and how much
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: it costs. And it's not that much money, $ 250. And
• 24:19
  Speaker 12: you will set a person like a juke. I'm looking
• 24:23
  Speaker 12: at her story here. She was three years old when
• 24:26
  Speaker 12: armed men stormed into her village. They dragged she and
• 24:30
  Speaker 12: her mom north into slavery. She says she, I still remember,
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: she still remembers that her grandmother was there at the time.
• 24:37
  Speaker 12: And she's like desperately trying to cling to them as
• 24:39
  Speaker 12: the men are dragging them away. You can just see
• 24:41
  Speaker 12: it in your mind, right? This Horrific picture of violence
• 24:44
  Speaker 12: and separation. But the abductors beat her grandmother to the ground,
• 24:48
  Speaker 12: left her to die because she was too old to
• 24:50
  Speaker 12: be useful is what they said. So now in the north,
• 24:53
  Speaker 12: they tore a juke away from her mom. She never
• 24:56
  Speaker 12: saw her mom again. So now this young girl, three
• 24:59
  Speaker 12: years of age, she's lost her grandmother, beaten right before
• 25:03
  Speaker 12: her eyes. She's taken to a strange place with her mom,
• 25:05
  Speaker 12: but then they take her mom away from her. And
• 25:08
  Speaker 12: then it's just game on from there, from early childhood
• 25:10
  Speaker 12: all the way into adulthood. She was forced to work
• 25:12
  Speaker 12: from sunrise to late into the night, hauling water, grinding grain,
• 25:17
  Speaker 12: tending animals, tough physical work. And if she slowed down,
• 25:20
  Speaker 12: she was beaten with sticks or with fists. And then
• 25:24
  Speaker 12: as she got older, it gets even worse, if you
• 25:26
  Speaker 12: can imagine that. Her master began raping her. She became
• 25:29
  Speaker 12: pregnant twice. And when she finally fled, She had to
• 25:33
  Speaker 12: make an unbearable choice to leave one of her children
• 25:35
  Speaker 12: behind in the hands of her abuser. Thankfully, one of
• 25:39
  Speaker 12: our slave retrievers found her in a market, followed her home,
• 25:41
  Speaker 12: negotiated her rescue with that cow vaccine, but was not
• 25:46
  Speaker 12: able to get both of her children out. So a Jew,
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: as you can imagine, even though she's safe today, she
• 25:53
  Speaker 12: is just praying that somehow God will deliver her remaining child,
• 25:57
  Speaker 12: you know, and reunite them. That's just one story.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: They're not the only ones that have been treated this way.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: And as they are relocated back to South Sudan, the
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: goal is to get them back with family if there's
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: any family surviving from the attacks. A lot of times
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: that is not the case. So a lot of times
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: what happens is through the local churches, they have these
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: communities of former slaves that kind of live together as
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: a family themselves. And imagine the comfort and support that
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: that is to know that the people that you're now
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: worshiping Jesus with, which you were not allowed to do
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: the entire time you were in slavery, have all been
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: through similar abusive situations as to what you have. And
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: so now you have this community of support and encouragement
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: and sisterhood in a way that you only ever dreamed
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: or wondered if it was even possible when you were
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: in captivity. Not to mention, The idea of having a
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: friend or friendships. You know, Todd, we take those things
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: for granted.
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: Oh, we do.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: And we throw friends away faster than we sometimes throw
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: fast food wrappers away. Like we just, oh, they're my friend.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: But these are women that form bonds over shared experiences
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: and suffering. But now they get to live in the
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: joy of Jesus. And friend, your gift makes that happen.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: It is the light switch that turns their life from
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: a dark room into a bright light, and you get
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: to be part of that. 888-342-1010, $ 250, rescues one slave.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: We have a list of 232 names that we are
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: aiming to liberate by Christmas, but we need your help
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: right now. And if you can do a large gift, $ 2, 500,
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: you're going to help set 10 women free today.
• 27:43
  Speaker 13: 888-342-1010, 888-342-1010.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: Please call right now.
• 28:08
  Speaker 9: Here he is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Welcome back. Kevin McCullough at Times Square, That Kevin Show, thatkevinshow.com.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: It is Monday, so of course we're talking about money
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: and how to be good stewards of it. And for
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: those of you that are small business owners, I'm so
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: thrilled to be able to have a weekly conversation with
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Tony Bode, who is the president and CEO of MACH Funding,
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: M-A-C-H Funding, They are the high-integrity, top-shelf business solutions firm
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: that you want to know about. And I've been learning
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: a lot, actually, with Tony's weekly visits with us. Tony,
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: I was recently confronted with something that I think a
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: lot of small business owners are. Now, my small business
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: is a media company. We work on film projects and productions.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: We do some music stuff. We do other things. But
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: we have one location. We're not really a brick and mortar.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: We have to have a location to operate where we
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: operate from. But I was recently just on the phone
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: with the guy that owned the studio and said, oh,
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: by the way, come July, this was in the middle
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: of the summer last year, we're going to have to
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: raise the rent another $ 1, 000. Now, first of all, That
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: was okay because rents in the area where I'm located
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: at with that business, they're up like $ 2, 500 to $ 3, 000
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: on average across the board for similar size spaces. So
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I didn't freak out or anything. But I was like,
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: you know what? It's a little bit of a jump
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: for me because he's talking to me in May. The
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: lease was up at the end of June. I was like,
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: I'm going to need some time to adjust. He said, okay,
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: let's do $ 500 through the end of the year. Then
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: in January, we'll do the full increase, sign the new lease,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: new five-year deal, etc. But I got to thinking, Companies
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: that rent land or space, brick and mortar, they are
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: really held hostage when it comes time to renew those leases.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: I don't have a brick and mortar that people really
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: know from the outside, but the establishments that do, they
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: know where you are, they come to your place. That
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: could really be something that could surprise you out of
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: the blue.
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely.
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: And you know what?
• 30:24
  Speaker 14: You're one of the few lucky ones that has a
• 30:25
  Speaker 14: reasonable landlord. I would say the fact that your landlord
• 30:28
  Speaker 14: is willing to give you that flexibility through the end
• 30:31
  Speaker 14: of the year is not a luxury that a lot
• 30:33
  Speaker 14: of business owners unfortunately have.
• 30:35
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: So, you know, we see it happening a lot.
• 30:38
  Speaker 14: We have clients coming to us for capital because they're
• 30:41
  Speaker 14: hit with an unexpected expense like, you know, like a
• 30:44
  Speaker 14: rent hike. And they're kind of held hostage to a
• 30:47
  Speaker 14: certain extent because they.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Probably spent all their money.
• 30:50
  Speaker 14: You know, let me give you an example, like a
• 30:52
  Speaker 14: restaurant owner, you know, spends all their money to remodel
• 30:56
  Speaker 14: the restaurant, to, to remodel the kitchen, to, you know,
• 31:00
  Speaker 14: prepare the seating area.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: And, you know, put up a sign and spend marketing.
• 31:04
  Speaker 14: So people know that location as a staple location and
• 31:09
  Speaker 14: they come to that location mostly for the restaurant, but
• 31:12
  Speaker 14: also because of the location where it's located. So, you know,
• 31:16
  Speaker 14: When rents, you know, inevitably go up, you have no choice.
• 31:20
  Speaker 14: You have, well, you have two choices, really.
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: What do you do? Do you relocate or do you just,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: you know, swallow the expense and move on?
• 31:28
  Speaker 14: And for a lot of business owners, that isn't necessarily
• 31:31
  Speaker 14: an easy question or easy problem to solve. So what
• 31:34
  Speaker 14: we always tell them, you know, this is an advice
• 31:37
  Speaker 14: to all small businesses that are opening up either a
• 31:40
  Speaker 14: new location or just getting started.
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: The most important document or one of the most important
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: documents is is your lease agreement. So understanding your lease
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: agreement is key. When does it renew?
• 31:51
  Speaker 14: How much can the landlord increase your rent by? Usually
• 31:54
  Speaker 14: these are things that are in the lease agreement most
• 31:56
  Speaker 14: of the time. And understanding your options so that when
• 31:59
  Speaker 14: the time inevitably comes that rent does increase, then you know, okay,
• 32:04
  Speaker 14: I'm in a better cashflow position to either renew the
• 32:06
  Speaker 14: lease and pay more money or relocate, right? So we
• 32:10
  Speaker 14: always say rule of thumb is give your business at
• 32:12
  Speaker 14: least like A year prior to the lease being renewed
• 32:15
  Speaker 14: and then analyze what your strategy is, whether it's by,
• 32:19
  Speaker 14: you know, if you feel like this business still has
• 32:21
  Speaker 14: a lot of potential for growth in this location. Let's
• 32:24
  Speaker 14: say you have you're in a prime space and you
• 32:26
  Speaker 14: have a lot of foot traffic and it's just.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: A matter of.
• 32:29
  Speaker 14: Okay, you know, maybe I need to invest more in
• 32:30
  Speaker 14: marketing or maybe I need to hire more people or
• 32:33
  Speaker 14: figuring out, you know, refreshing my menu if I'm a restaurant.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Figuring out how to put six more tables in the room.
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 32:39
  Speaker 14: And understand, okay, like at the end of this year,
• 32:41
  Speaker 14: my lease is going to go up. So I need
• 32:43
  Speaker 14: to adjust. Let's say it's a 20% increase, God forbid.
• 32:46
  Speaker 14: Let's say it's a 20% rent increase. You have to
• 32:48
  Speaker 14: be generating 20% more revenue. Now, if you're growing business,
• 32:52
  Speaker 14: that's probably a very possible thing to do, especially when
• 32:54
  Speaker 14: you're seeing increase month over month. But If you're stagnant,
• 32:58
  Speaker 14: then you probably should think about what you're going to
• 33:00
  Speaker 14: do prior to that lease renewing, not at the last minute.
• 33:04
  Speaker 14: Because the last thing you want to do is make
• 33:06
  Speaker 14: a capital decision when your back is against the wall.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah. This is what he talks about with every client.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: They do a deep dive. They say, what is creating
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: the current crisis? What's the best approach to it? And Tony,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: I've heard you say on more than one occasion, you've
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: told people not to take financing. because it's not the
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: smart thing for the business. In other words, you care
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: about the relationship and the long-term relationship you have with
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: that business rather than taking the quick hit.
• 33:33
  Speaker 14: Yeah, and it's also, sometimes it's like, it's a matter
• 33:36
  Speaker 14: of use case, right? So we say, what are you
• 33:38
  Speaker 14: using the money for? And if you're using the money
• 33:41
  Speaker 14: to buy a piece of equipment that maybe you don't
• 33:44
  Speaker 14: really need or isn't going to yield you a return
• 33:47
  Speaker 14: on investment fast enough to be able to pay for
• 33:50
  Speaker 14: the loan itself, And the question really is, is there
• 33:53
  Speaker 14: anything else you could be doing with this money that
• 33:55
  Speaker 14: can yield you the results? And having that discussion is
• 33:58
  Speaker 14: key because other lenders might say, yeah, you know what?
• 34:01
  Speaker 14: Go ahead and buy the piece of equipment. Here's your money.
• 34:04
  Speaker 14: But then at the end of the day, you're stuck
• 34:06
  Speaker 14: with it. You may be stuck with a problem that
• 34:08
  Speaker 14: could have easily been avoided from the beginning. For us,
• 34:11
  Speaker 14: we're looking to make business.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: We're not trying to.
• 34:14
  Speaker 14: discourage clients from taking financing. But we understand that you're
• 34:18
  Speaker 14: making a very important decision that can affect your life.
• 34:20
  Speaker 14: If you're a small business owner, it affects your livelihood,
• 34:23
  Speaker 14: your family's livelihood. And then it's a two-way street for
• 34:26
  Speaker 14: us too, because we have lending partners that we work
• 34:28
  Speaker 14: with that we are there to protect as well. We
• 34:30
  Speaker 14: want everybody to actually benefit at the end of the day.
• 34:34
  Speaker 14: And a lot of that starts with having the right
• 34:36
  Speaker 14: conversation and setting up the right expectation from the beginning.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: And having the right partner, which I think Mock Funding
• 34:42

  Speaker 2: and everything we're doing is at thatkevinshow.com, and I am
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: always pleased to have you with us. Hey, do you
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: remember back in 2020? If you were listening to my
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: show in 2020, you do remember the media narrative that
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: seemed absolute. When people suggested early alternatives to COVID were
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: silenced and deplatformed, the late Dr. Zev Zelenko was at
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: the center of a controversy with Z-Stack and the Zelenko Protocol.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: You may remember I had him on my show. We
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: had like 14 million people listen to that podcast. He
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: faced immense criticism for sharing his approach, but President Trump
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: later cited him during a press briefing. I watched the
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: video of it on the news myself. Dr. Zelenko carefully
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: selected ingredients and doses based on his own research, and
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: today his legacy lives on through the original Z-Stack formula.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: You shouldn't have to feel helpless every time scary headlines
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: flash across your TV. ZStack provides nutritional support for your
• 37:15

• 37:44
  Speaker 2: Portions of that Kevin show are sponsored in part by Z-Stack.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: And I'll never forget that, friends. I remember, first of all,
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: how simple Dr. Zelenko's methodology in the approach to trying
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: to help clear up the breathing problem. Because with COVID,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: the issue was the breathing problem and the immune system.
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: And When you cleaned up the immune system, when you
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: got the immune system better, guess what? Other things began
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: to do better as well. So Dr. Zelenko also always
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: carefully selected his ingredients and doses based on research. But
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: he explained it in such intricate detail. And I knew
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: at the time that that was going to be more
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: beneficial to people than just during the COVID outbreak. So anyway,
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: I'm very glad to see he has since passed away.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: But I'm very glad to see that the ZStack formula
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: still carries on. And I want you to go check
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: it out at ZStackLife.com slash Kevin. ZStackLife.com slash Kevin. ZStackLife.com
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: slash Kevin. And then you'll have a huge discount, $ 4. 95
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: plus shipping and handling. And just so grateful that they're
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: with us. Okay, one other thing I want you to
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: know about. It's that time of year when enrollment for
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: health insurance is all the discussion. Guess what? You don't
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: have to wait until the ACA actually opens its enrollment system.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Because if you want to save money on your health insurance,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: and for me, for the McCullough family, it was upwards
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: of $ 400 a month in monthly savings on my premium.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Then I found out that on practically every prescription I'm
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: going to get, there's a rebate. My daughter... got a
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: rebate on her doctor's visit prior to school starting this year.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm saving nearly $ 5, 000 a month on my premiums,
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: and I'm still getting checks from my insurance company with
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: no out-of-pocket costs of my own of any form so far.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: And we switched back in June. So I'm just telling you,
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: if you want better health insurance alternatives, there is only
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: one man that I suggest you call. His name is
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: Vic Pritchard. He has access to over 20 different insurance
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: companies and programs and offers and opportunities. And if you
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: have not called him, you are literally throwing money away
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: month after month. And I don't want you to do that, especially...
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: When right now they're talking about kicking a whole bunch
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: of people off of the ACA, the Obamacare, because people
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: have been, you know, confused about how to use it
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: properly and everything else. And there's been some problems with it. Anyway,
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: here's the phone number. And it's not just any phone number.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: It's Vic's personal cell number at DFW Direct Insurance. Call 817-449-5557.
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: 817-449-5557. 817-449-5557.

• 41:43
  Speaker 3: It's Kevin McCullough, Monday through Friday, on That Kevin Show.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: And now, from the Connors & Sullivan Broadcast Studios, the
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: man who is not what he wants to be, but
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: is way grateful that he's not who he used to.
• 42:04
  Speaker 6: Be, here's.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: Welcome back to Times Square. Kevin McCullough, glad to have
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: you with us. That Kevin Show from New York to
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: San Diego, Anchorage to Miami. We're here every day. Thank
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: you for making us your choice. Always interested in getting
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: an understanding of what's going on in the world around us.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: And Jacob Olidort, Dr. Jacob Olidort at the America First
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Policy Institute, is the director of their policy, the chief
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: research officer for American security. and is always willing to
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: share with us his opinion. Jacob, it's good to see you.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen you for a little while, but it's
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: good to have you back. So as we're having this conversation,
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: there are portions of Paris that are burning to the ground.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: There are portions of Belgium that are burning to the ground.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: There are portions of other European cities and areas that
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: are on fire. And there's a lot of anger, and
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: it seems to start Very similarly, like people complaining about
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: education policy. Good thing we never have that problem in America.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: Or other things that they feel grievances about. But then
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: something weird is happening, Jacob, because they're marching for educational,
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: not freedom, educational reform. And then the next thing you know,
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: there's a bunch of Palestinian flags waving in the crowd
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: and they're chanting death to the West and burning Israeli
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: flags everywhere. in front of embassies and stuff. I don't
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: fully get that, but I note that it's coming around
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: the same time that the IRGC is staying defiant, that
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Hamas and Hezbollah are as defiant as they have been
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: in some time, and that you kind of have this general, like,
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know, it seems like a contest of will
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: between the Middle East and the West in terms of
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: what we're going to allow to take place. Give me
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: your thoughts and insights of what you're seeing.
• 44:03
  Speaker 8: Well, look, it's the American people are right to look
• 44:06
  Speaker 8: at this and to be concerned that, you know, America
• 44:10
  Speaker 8: could fall and travel down this path if presented with
• 44:13
  Speaker 8: a different reality that the left is trying to give us. And,
• 44:17
  Speaker 8: of course, the irony is not lost on us that
• 44:18
  Speaker 8: this is happening on the 25th anniversary of the most horrendous,
• 44:22
  Speaker 8: tragic event in our recent history. You're absolutely right. There's
• 44:25
  Speaker 8: a connective tie in with all these themes here. As
• 44:29
  Speaker 8: we know, the Palestinian resistance, Palestinian statehood movement has never
• 44:33
  Speaker 8: really been about the Palestinians. It's been about violence as
• 44:36
  Speaker 8: we're seeing it now. There's a tie-in with October 7th
• 44:41
  Speaker 8: and the horrendous events of that day and the civilizational
• 44:44
  Speaker 8: stakes that are presented to the West and what that
• 44:49
  Speaker 8: means to us. And look, I heard Secretary Rubio make
• 44:52
  Speaker 8: that exact point last week at a memorial that the
• 44:55
  Speaker 8: State Department hosted in honor of of the American victims,
• 44:58
  Speaker 8: the 49 American victims who perished on that day and thereafter.
• 45:02
  Speaker 8: And so I think the warning signs are clear. I
• 45:05
  Speaker 8: think the history between the left and the far left
• 45:09
  Speaker 8: in particular, that's becoming the mainstream now there, and the
• 45:13
  Speaker 8: Islamist radicals, that is longstanding, at least a century old.
• 45:17
  Speaker 8: But what we've seen in recent years and what I
• 45:19
  Speaker 8: think we're waking up to is the reality of the
• 45:22
  Speaker 8: institutionalization of these threats, of this anti-Americanism. You saw it
• 45:27
  Speaker 8: especially acutely in the Biden years. You saw it with
• 45:30
  Speaker 8: universities allowing violence against American students on campuses and hatred
• 45:38
  Speaker 8: like this to spread. And now we're seeing all that
• 45:40
  Speaker 8: manifest and further evolve. And, of course, what's happening in
• 45:45
  Speaker 8: the streets of Paris is just one example of that.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: I've been in some foreign cities when protests have broken out.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: I was in Jerusalem when they had– Some protesters at
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: one point in time create a sudden kind of flash
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: mob disruption one evening. I've been in Paris when I've
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: seen different protests go down in person. These are not
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: for the faint of heart. The people that are involved
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: in these types of things generally have a pretty firm
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: jaw about what they're trying to accomplish and to achieve,
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: and I think that that's even maximized when you're including
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: people this nexus between Islam and these Marxists. But aren't
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: the Marxists just kind of the Islamists like convenient fools
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: for now? Like, it's like, okay, you guys are going
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: to demand all this stuff, but we're really going to
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: turn it into what we want it to be.
• 46:39
  Speaker 8: Well, I think there's certainly a marriage of convenience there.
• 46:42
  Speaker 8: But I do think there is a refinement, an ideological
• 46:45
  Speaker 8: refinement and a partnership there that's been in very close
• 46:48
  Speaker 8: development for many years, many decades.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: We call it the Red-Green Alliance.
• 46:52
  Speaker 8: Red-Green Alliance.
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely.
• 46:54
  Speaker 8: And And I go back again to the 2023-2024 time
• 46:58
  Speaker 8: period where you had Marxists convening trainings and even providing
• 47:03
  Speaker 8: legal expertise to professional protesters, not students, in the name
• 47:09
  Speaker 8: of an Islamist cause. And I think that's an important
• 47:13
  Speaker 8: piece of this. The other piece, and I think this
• 47:16
  Speaker 8: is the Middle East regional context, the Abraham Accords put
• 47:20
  Speaker 8: an end to all of the hostile movements all the
• 47:23
  Speaker 8: destructive and really outdated ideologies that had set the region back.
• 47:27
  Speaker 8: The Palestinian, let's call it liberation or resistance movement, is
• 47:32
  Speaker 8: really the last vestige. It's the last ideological thread of
• 47:38
  Speaker 8: the Iranian regime, is a big proponent of it, and
• 47:41
  Speaker 8: a lot of these anti-American forces. And so, to your point,
• 47:45
  Speaker 8: they are really now fighting tooth and nail for this cause,
• 47:51
  Speaker 8: recognizing that that is their last ability. But it also
• 47:55
  Speaker 8: is a reminder for us about the importance, the effectiveness
• 47:58
  Speaker 8: of the president's policies in the first term and now
• 48:00
  Speaker 8: in the second term, and the importance of America First
• 48:04
  Speaker 8: in truly eradicating this anti-Americanism, this hostile and violent ideology.
• 48:09
  Speaker 8: And I think we are now really witnessing this moment,
• 48:13
  Speaker 8: and I think it's a time for America First policy
• 48:16
  Speaker 8: to remind our folks that, listen, this is the only
• 48:20
  Speaker 8: way for the American people to to be protected for
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: their needs to be met. Otherwise, the alternative is for
• 48:25
  Speaker 8: American people to be forgotten. And I think that's basically.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: If you were to advise the president following the election,
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: kind of regardless of what the turnout is and whether
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: he loses Congress or keeps them, what do you think
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: he would be likely to do his final two years
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: in office?
• 48:42
  Speaker 8: This president has been always the peace president, without getting
• 48:46
  Speaker 8: ahead of his intentions. And I think we have one
• 48:49
  Speaker 8: blessing that we have is the president's own instincts. He
• 48:52
  Speaker 8: has been right at every turn. And I think what
• 48:55
  Speaker 8: I would just say to him is to encourage him
• 48:57
  Speaker 8: to follow his instincts, to find a way to bring
• 49:00
  Speaker 8: peace and bring peace through strength. And that means applying
• 49:05
  Speaker 8: pressure where it's necessary to really, and to sharpen the point,
• 49:09
  Speaker 8: to use the time as if it's the last remaining
• 49:12
  Speaker 8: time that we have. Whatever it takes to get the
• 49:15
  Speaker 8: deal done, to get the job done, however he sees it.
• 49:18
  Speaker 6: It's gloves off.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: There's nothing else. to hold out for. And if he
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: doesn't get it done, it probably won't get done.
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 49:28
  Speaker 8: That's exactly right. And I know we can quibble as
• 49:30
  Speaker 8: well what getting the job done actually means. And even
• 49:33
  Speaker 8: on that, I would say the president knows what it means.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: For instance, everyone's saying war fatigue, war fatigue. How many
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: people have we lost in Iran? It's been the least
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: bloody war we've ever participated in.
• 49:44
  Speaker 8: Well, every loss of human life is tragic, and not
• 49:47
  Speaker 8: to understate that at all, but you're right. And I
• 49:50
  Speaker 8: think the other piece of this, too, the president and
• 49:52
  Speaker 8: his team have been calibrating and paying attention to the
• 49:55
  Speaker 8: American economy. There's no question gas prices are high, the
• 49:58
  Speaker 8: diesel spikes are even sharper, but how much worse would
• 50:01
  Speaker 8: they have been had the president and his team not
• 50:03
  Speaker 8: taken those actions? Not projected American dominance, economic dominance.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: Well, would Tel Aviv have been blown off the map
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: by now? That's the stuff we don't really understand because
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: we avoided it because of his diligence, which is the
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: whole point. Jacob Oledort of the America First Policy Institute,
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: always appreciate you, sir. Thank you so much.
• 50:26
  Speaker 8: Privileged to be with you.
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: My new nickname for you, Dr. O.
• 50:29
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 50:29
  Speaker 7: Dr.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: O is for this.
• 50:31
  Speaker 8: I'll learn to live with it. Thank you.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: We'll see you next time. Kevin McCullough coming right back.
• 50:34
  Speaker 6: Don't go away.
• 50:55
  Speaker 9: Here he is from New York, That Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back. It's Money Monday on That Kevin Show, thatkevinshow.com,
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: where we do look at money on Mondays with the
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: intent purpose to help you be a wiser steward. You
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: work hard to earn what you have. We want you
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: to be as wise as you can with it. And
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: that's why David Fisher joins us every Monday to discuss money.
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: what's going on in world markets on different levels and
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: different topics. David, thank you for being back with us.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: My monologue today, all about the violence that's going on
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: in France, supposedly the fires and the marches and the
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: protests are all about social policy and education and social
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: services and things that they have overextended themselves on. Some
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: people would look at their immigration policy and say, well,
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: if you can't afford to give everyone in your country
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: everything that you promised them, maybe that's not a good idea.
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: But it's very true that global debt is creating some
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: crises around the world. All major countries are having issues
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: right now. France seems to be the one that's in
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: the worst shape. US also having trouble with looking at
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: its future. The US bailed out Japan for the moment,
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: but Can the U.S. or the European Union just bail
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: out France? And what should we be thinking about this?
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: Well, the short answer is no, because the system doesn't
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: allow it. But, you know, the whole global debt structure
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: is now coming into question. I said on your program six,
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: seven years ago, we would get here and now we're here.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: U.S.
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: Treasuries, Kevin, are the whole bedrock to the whole global
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: financial system. And their yields are going up. which creates
• 52:48
  Speaker 6: the need not to want to own them anymore. So
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: what used to be a safe haven in treasuries now
• 52:54
  Speaker 6: is a bubble in treasuries, and it looks like the
• 52:57
  Speaker 6: bubble is starting to pop, not just in the United States,
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: but from around the world. And France looks like to
• 53:03
  Speaker 6: be the first country that might go bust. I don't
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: think it's going to be the last, unfortunately. France isn't
• 53:09
  Speaker 6: like Greece.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: That's what I was just going to ask you about.
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: Are they at the point where Greece was at?
• 53:15
  Speaker 6: Well, let's take the comparison. We're referring to the 2010
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: Eurozone crisis that Greece suffered. was the catalyst for. I
• 53:24
  Speaker 6: know that you've gone to Europe. I've been in Europe.
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: In fact, we're in Europe and Italy at the same time.
• 53:28
  Speaker 6: We just kind of passed ways. But my wife and I,
• 53:31
  Speaker 6: a couple years ago, we went to France. We went
• 53:33
  Speaker 6: there with our dear friend who's a German physician, and
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: he just said there's so many, so many immigrants, and
• 53:42
  Speaker 6: that's part of the problem. But let's look at Greece.
• 53:46
  Speaker 6: First of all, Greece... In 2010, its debt was around
• 53:51
  Speaker 6: $ 330 billion. France is 10 times that. So, I mean,
• 53:57
  Speaker 6: we're not even talking about even a comparison. We're talking
• 54:02
  Speaker 6: $ 4 trillion is the debt structure. There's 500,000 people riding.
• 54:08
  Speaker 6: Unemployment is 21% in France in their GDP rate. is
• 54:16
  Speaker 6: not as bad as us. They're at 120% the debt
• 54:19
  Speaker 6: to GDP, and we're at 127%. But the difference is
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: the United States has a growing economy, and France has
• 54:28
  Speaker 6: a shrinking economy. Deutsche Bank strategist Jim Reid said that
• 54:33
  Speaker 6: the French 10-year government bond has posted now its worst
• 54:39
  Speaker 6: loss since 1803. That's the reign of the terror of
• 54:45
  Speaker 6: the French Revolution. So the French welfare state bill is
• 54:50
  Speaker 6: coming due. The country has not balanced its budget since 1974.
• 54:54
  Speaker 6: And they're stuck. Europe is out of favor with investors.
• 54:58
  Speaker 6: And European bank stocks have dropped to a three-month low.
• 55:02
  Speaker 6: There's a massive selling Off going on in the French
• 55:05
  Speaker 6: bond market. But here's can we bail them out? Well,
• 55:09
  Speaker 6: we bailed out Japan, but that was just a short-term fix.
• 55:12
  Speaker 6: It didn't really fix it. France can't fix this. They
• 55:16
  Speaker 6: can't print their own money like we have a Federal Reserve.
• 55:20
  Speaker 6: They can't cut its way out. That's why there's rioting
• 55:24
  Speaker 6: going on because they've been cutting. Third, they can't tax
• 55:29
  Speaker 6: their way out. The taxes are the heaviest tax burden
• 55:32
  Speaker 6: in the developed world. And fourth, France can't grow its
• 55:36
  Speaker 6: way out, and they don't have a way of getting
• 55:41
  Speaker 6: their debt relief from the European Union because they don't
• 55:44
  Speaker 6: qualify for debt relief. So we have a thing that's
• 55:47
  Speaker 6: stuck here, and that's why we're going to see probably
• 55:50
  Speaker 6: a meltdown in their bonds. But this is not going
• 55:53
  Speaker 6: to keep within just France's borders. We're already seeing problems
• 55:58
  Speaker 6: in Italy. We're seeing problems in Spain. And obviously, as
• 56:01
  Speaker 6: the United States, we have our own problems with our
• 56:04
  Speaker 6: own debt structure that the world is selling US Treasuries.
• 56:08
  Speaker 6: So this thing is just starting out, unfortunately. And Treasuries
• 56:12
  Speaker 6: are becoming out of fashion. All government bonds are becoming
• 56:15
  Speaker 6: out of fashion. And the world seems to be going
• 56:18
  Speaker 6: towards gold as a new way to protecting their money
• 56:21
  Speaker 6: and But the 6% number is the thing that we're
• 56:25
  Speaker 6: watching on treasuries and across the world.
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: Talk to me about that because I'm hearing that 6%
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: is the number that would trigger some of these larger crises.
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: The news is now saying 6% would also trigger additional
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: crises that we haven't discussed yet. Tell us about why
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: that number is the magic number.
• 56:45
  Speaker 6: Well, I don't know why they came up with that,
• 56:47
  Speaker 6: but it's, first of all, Jeffrey Gundlach, we talked about
• 56:52
  Speaker 6: him a couple of weeks ago. He announced that if
• 56:55
  Speaker 6: a 10-year treasury hits 6%, we would start to see
• 57:00
  Speaker 6: the United States struggling to default, which is just horrendous
• 57:04
  Speaker 6: to say such a thing. But, you know, he knows
• 57:06
  Speaker 6: more than anybody about U.S. treasuries than anyone else in
• 57:09
  Speaker 6: the world. He is the Warren Buffett to U.S. treasury.
• 57:12
  Speaker 6: So I I would take what he says as the gospel,
• 57:15
  Speaker 6: and he's not anti-American. He loves our country. Ed Yardini,
• 57:19
  Speaker 6: he chimed in last week. He's another economist. He's saying 6% also. Well,
• 57:25
  Speaker 6: so that's the magic number that will cause financial problems
• 57:29
  Speaker 6: in the bond market. But it's also the number now
• 57:33
  Speaker 6: that will cause a shift out of the stock market,
• 57:36
  Speaker 6: according to Bank of America. Global fund managers, there was
• 57:41
  Speaker 6: a survey that was done by Bank of America, by
• 57:44
  Speaker 6: Michael Harnett. He's the chief investment strategist, and he surveyed
• 57:49
  Speaker 6: 185 fund managers overseeing a half a trillion dollars. And
• 57:55
  Speaker 6: the survey was done between October 2nd through the 8th.
• 57:59
  Speaker 6: And the question was, at what point would interest rates
• 58:03
  Speaker 6: in a 10-year treasury, or what they call the yield,
• 58:06
  Speaker 6: go high enough to cause a sell-off in U.S. stocks
• 58:12
  Speaker 6: and go towards treasuries? The common answer was 6%. In fact,
• 58:18
  Speaker 6: 68 of the respondents said that if the 10-year reached 6%,
• 58:25
  Speaker 6: that would be the trigger for them to get out
• 58:28
  Speaker 6: of stocks and go towards bonds. So it caused, unfortunately,
• 58:33
  Speaker 6: a double whammy, a problem, us financing our debt, Kevin,
• 58:39
  Speaker 6: That's 6% because when the interest rate goes up by
• 58:44
  Speaker 6: the Fed, that raises the payment that we pay out,
• 58:48
  Speaker 6: which is now over $ 1 trillion, $ 1. 2 trillion of interest payment.
• 58:53
  Speaker 6: So there's this whole thing that it seems like 6%
• 58:57
  Speaker 6: is the number. Even the IMF warns on October 12th
• 59:03
  Speaker 6: that bond yields could see a disorderly spike in debt
• 59:08
  Speaker 6: and cause inflation to worsen. In Wall Street, an article
• 59:12
  Speaker 6: came out on the 15th of October. It says Wall
• 59:14
  Speaker 6: Street is worried that the U.S. economy is more vulnerable
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: than it looks. The stock market now is at a
• 59:21
  Speaker 6: critical juncture, according to CNBC. And top economist Steve Hanke says, again,
• 59:28
  Speaker 6: we could be at a concentration where there's too much
• 59:31
  Speaker 6: happening in AI. And Paul Tudor Jones, I'll leave with this.
• 59:36
  Speaker 6: He says, Paul Tudor Jones, billionaire, regular guy on CNBC.
• 59:41
  Speaker 6: Last week, he was on Squawk Box on CNBC. And
• 59:45
  Speaker 6: he talked about the stock market correction. And he says,
• 59:48
  Speaker 6: 2027 is going to be really, really challenging for the
• 59:53
  Speaker 6: stock market. I'm going to be short the whole rest
• 59:57
  Speaker 6: of the year. There's just little value in the market
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 6: is what Jones emphasized. Short means, by the way, he
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 6: doesn't think the market's going to go up. He thinks
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 6: it's going to go down and he's betting as such.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: Well, friends, there's one with all of this instability and
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: with all of the volatility that it brings with it.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: I have recommended for years, before David Fisher was with us,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: I recommended this. But since he's been with us for
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: the last seven or eight years, I have continually recommended
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: that you have at least a portion of your long-term
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: planning in something that is solid, something that has never
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: been worth nothing, and has always, at least in my lifetime,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: continued to grow in value. And this is one of
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: the things that I find amazing about gold is that
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: it has done that. But take a portion of your
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: 401k or your IRA and back it in gold. It
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: may not be as flashy as a tech stock or as,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: you know, you know, overnight is something that Elon Musk
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: does or whatever, but that's okay. You don't need it
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: to be the, the flashy thing. You need it to
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: be the steady thing. And that's what gold and silver
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: have provided increasingly. Here's the number to David's team and,
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: You should ask for David personally when you call.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 10: 844-604-2575.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 6: 844-604-2575. 844-604-2575.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: And then ask for David when you call specifically. David,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: we appreciate it. Thank you so much.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 6: Thank you, Kevin.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: Kevin McCullough coming right back. Stick around for more of
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: That Kevin.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 5: Next time.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 9: Here he is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back. Kevin McCullough, very glad to have
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: you with us and very excited to be on this
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: journey with you that I look forward to. Personally, I
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: look forward to this every year because when I think
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: of this time of year, we're coming into that stretch
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: where all the holidays hit, even the non-holidays that my
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: kids love that I hate, like Halloween and stuff like that. Thanksgiving, Christmas,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: this is my sweet spot. I love this time of year.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: I love thinking about the themes of being thankful, the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: themes of Jesus coming incarnate, and what that all motivates
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: us to do. And if you're a thankful person, if
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: you have things to be thankful for, then you should
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: be excited to reciprocate that and show that to the
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: rest of the world. And that's where My yearly campaign
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: with Christian Solidarity International means so much to us because
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: we use all of that good feeling, all of those
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: wonderful ideas about gratitude and Christ's coming. And we say, hey,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: let's actually change some lives with it. Todd Chapman is
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: back with us from Christian Solidarity International. And Todd, you
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: and I have talked off air quite a bit about
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: how unique what CSI is in terms of what they do.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: It is one of the most Well, I don't know
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: of anything else like it, but when I give that
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: gift to know that that human life is going from
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: slavery into freedom from maybe the darkest period of their
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: life into maybe the most hope filled it, I just
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: have nothing but, but good vibes at that point to
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: quote the kids these days.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 12: And you can do that by the way, that Kevin
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 12: show.com triple eight, three, four, two, 10, 10, you know,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 12: and I'm actually looking at a story here that reminds
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 12: me of, um, I mean, you said a big part
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 12: of their lives. Some of these people that were enslaved
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 12: have literally spent almost their entire life in slavery. I'm
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 12: looking at the story of a book. She was taken.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 12: She and her mom abducted. And I don't even know
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 12: when this was. But as she was a baby and
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 12: they're taken up into Sudan.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 6: Sudan.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 12: Her mom is beaten many times to the point where
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 12: she finally died from a beating. I mean, they beat
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 12: her so bad and, you know, she's lying there dying
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 12: and they don't take her to a hospital because they don't.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: Have any value.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 12: I mean, you were just an object. And if you die,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 12: I'll just get another one.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 6: I'll just, you know, replace you.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 12: I mean, no value at all. And so now a
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 12: book is, you know, she's come of age and she
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 12: is forced to continue to live in the home of
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 12: the man who abducted her and then, you know, has
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 12: begun to rape her and killed her mom. One time,
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 12: the one time she's out watching the goats in the field.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 12: So one of her tasks, she loses track of a
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 12: couple of goats. She comes back and tells him he
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 12: beats her so bad. Her left eye comes out of
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 12: her head. And so now thank God. So now she's
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 12: 32 years old. So from a baby, we finally were
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 12: able to secure her release and walk her into freedom.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 12: 32 years of age. So if she was taken at,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 12: let's call it two years of age, we don't really know.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 12: 30 years in slavery. You think she's a little bit
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 12: thrilled and excited that she's finally free? She said, I
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 12: never thought it would happen, actually, even though I prayed
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 12: every day. that God would somehow deliver me. He finally did.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: And now I'm here.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 12: And she says, my biggest hope now that I'm free
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 12: is that CSI will just continue to do what they
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 12: do and free other people that are in the same
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 12: situation I was in. And yeah, Kevin, you're right. This
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 12: is so incredibly profound what we get to do through CSI,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 12: what you get to do through CSI. A gift of
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 12: two hundred and fifty dollars. And you secure the freedom
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 12: of a slave like a book and you set her
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 12: up for a brand new life in South Sudan. All
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 12: the resources she needs to get going. You put her
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 12: in a community of people that, you know, walk the
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 12: same road as she did or whenever we can, we
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 12: reunite them with their family and get them back home
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 12: where they haven't been in decades. Most beautiful thing that
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 12: I think you could do with two hundred and fifty
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 12: dollars ever. And we wholeheartedly invite you in.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: So make that call right now. 1-888-342-1010 is the number. 888-342-1010.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: And as Todd mentioned, if you want to do it online,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: just go over to thatkevinshow.com and click the CSI banner
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: at the top of the page. But it's super simple.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: It shouldn't take more than just a couple of minutes
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: to do either one of those. 888-342-1010 or thatkevinshow.com and
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 2: click the banner. But they just have a time of... Just,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: you know, you need to exhale a little bit. You
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: need to have some healthy food. You need to have
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: some rest. You need to be around people that aren't
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: out to kill you and hurt you and abuse you
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: every day.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 12: I was going to say you need to not be
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 12: beaten for a while.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: It's like, let's just have a little cushion of something
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: that there's no expectation. So that's.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 6: No verbal abuse for a day.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: That's where the, but that's where the healing starts. And
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: then as they are, you know, kind of brought back
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: to life, if you will, they're, they're gifted. They're gifted.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: This thing called the Bag of Hope, which really doesn't
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: fit in a bag of any size that you and
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: I could carry. It's a number of gifts. It's a
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: big bag of sorghum grain that they will be able
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: to utilize and eat. They've probably been preparing sorghum for
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: the slave master's family over the time that they've been enslaved.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: So they're very familiar with how to use this particular grain.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: There's a bag of seed that will help them plant
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: a garden for more grain a year from now. So
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: they have ongoing food supply. They have things like cooking
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: utensils and gardening utensils and cleaning utensils and those types
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: of things that are all included. And then things like
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: a Bible, things like blankets, tarps, things that are helpful
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 2: to them in fighting the weather. And then the best
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: part of all is that every one of these slaves
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 2: get a little gift. She goat, a little milking she
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: goat that they're able to take, not only have food
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: product from milk and cheese and other things, but then
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: they're able to also breed and create a little bit
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: of micro enterprise for themselves or their themselves and their
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 2: children increasingly. And that is all included. Everything I just described,
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: the recovery time, all of the, all of the food
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: that they're going to take and plan and all that,
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: that's all in the gift of $ 250 when you give it.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: just call the number 888-342-1010 888-342-1010 888-342-1010 change a life

  Speaker 9: Here he is from New York. That Kevin. Kevin McCullough.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: All right, it's a Money Monday. And you know, one
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: of the ways that we want to help you protect
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: your legacy, protect that what you've earned is to be
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: wise in terms of how you steward it. And every
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: week we talk about different ways that that happens. Hilary
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: Kramer is my resident stock expert. She actually helps you
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: to understand how to pick stocks a little bit better.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: by pre-picking some for you for different reasons. And this week,
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: she happens to be reporting to us from Israel. So
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 2: she thought it would be fun to talk some Israeli stocks. Hilary,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: thanks for being here. First of all, where are you
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: in Israel? Are you in Tel Aviv? Are you in Jerusalem?
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 7: I am in Tel Aviv.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: Right now, so you can hear all the activity of
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: Tel Aviv.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: Well, and what people may not know is that Israel,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 2: in terms of its heft on the stock market actually
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: punches way above its weight class. It is the third
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: most traded nation on our stock exchanges in America behind
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: only the US and China. So this is this for
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: a little tiny state. They sure do put up big results.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: But you've got some special ones for us today.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 11: I do.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: And I wish I had more time. I want to
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: get right to these stocks, but I wish I had
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: more time to talk about the vibrancy of the economy,
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: the wealth creation, and the technology that is unbelievable here.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: And even though there's winds of war in the clouds here,
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: there's no question about it.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 7: People are still going strong.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, but let me jump into Checkpoint Software, which to
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: me is like the father of cybersecurity because 30 years
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: ago I went and did Checkpoint Software in Tel Aviv,
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: one of the first cybersecurity companies.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 7: Incredible, incredible reputation. And today, Check.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: Point incorporates like corporate networks, cloud systems, and more and more,
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: Check Point is protecting employees and combining it.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 7: With AI applications.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: And their revenue base is growing so fast because of, well,
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: first of all, the installed customers. You know, the incentive
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: to change after using Check Point is extremely low. but
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: it's also the substantial profit they have in subscriptions. And
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: their margins are 39%. Revenue grew 12%. I know that
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a lot, but still, this is a
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: company that's very solid and that has very.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 7: Sticky clients, as I said.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: And in May, a $ 2 billion reshare repurchase was authorized.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: And that really helps the earnings because you take away,
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: a company reduces the number of shares outstanding, but then
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: the earnings status, the things that.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 7: The earnings say the same.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: So each share, the earnings goes up for anyone who
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: loves math. Okay, let's do Teva Pharmaceuticals because Teva has
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: been around since 1905 when the Jews arrived in Palestine
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: and no one would sell them pharmaceuticals. Teva started a
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: generic drug business, which has grown into one of the
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: largest drug if not the largest generic drug maker in
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: the world.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 7: But their money now.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: Is coming from proprietary medicines that they're coming up with
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: in their own labs and that they are coordinating with
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: others to create.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 7: One of them is Austedo.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: You've probably seen all these commercials about involuntary movement disorders.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: And Austedo is very strong. There's another one for migraines.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: Their sales have risen 83%. It's called Adjovoy, maybe Adjovoy.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: And then there's a third one, an injectable psychiatric medicine
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: called Uzetti. And sales in the past 12 months have
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: grown 43% on that one.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 7: So the investment case is very strong.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: Of course, there's a lot of debt that Teva has,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: and that's one of the reasons why. that Teva's stock
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: price had dropped so much over the years because I
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: was a real proponent of.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 7: It very, very much.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: The shepherd of saying that Teva was the way to go,
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: but they did take.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 7: On a lot of debt. Okay, here's another one. Monday.com.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 7: I've talked about Monday.com before.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: It's a calendar organizational coordinating project application company. And wherever
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: I go, no matter what the investment bank, no matter
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: what the portfolio management company, every university, certainly every K-12 university,
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: that I come across is using monday.com. And those are
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: the companies that I'm dealing with. That means that everyone
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: is using monday.com. And what I've found with my colleagues
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: who use it is that, so you have your own calendar,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: but you can follow everybody else's calendar. And it's really
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: what I talked about a second ago, workflow.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 7: You see the workflow, you can handle big projects.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: And future revenue obligations increased 34%. And customers spending more
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: than $ 100, 000 annually represent 30% of recurring revenue. So that
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: also speaks to the fact that more than just companies
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: are using– I mean, again, I'm seeing the big major
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: investment banks and investment.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 7: Houses using it.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 7: But it means individuals are signing up for Monday.com.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: And there's been quite a bit of layoffs, which I
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: think has maybe frightened the market. But that's just because
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: their AI strategy is succeeding.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 7: And this is something we should talk about at some point,
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 7: which is.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: That as AI succeeds, jobs will fall. And this is
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: a very sad reality. Hopefully, we will find a homeostasis
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: and new industries will be created that But for right now,
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: and now let me tell you the one I love
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: the most of all of the stocks. Stock number four,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: Elbit Systems, E-L-B-T. Elbit is absolutely the best of them
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: all because Elbit is a defense contractor that supplies unmanned aircraft,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: also known as drones.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 7: And there are so many different kinds of drones today.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: $ 32 billion worth of sales have been made and Elbit
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: needs to just actually fulfill those. And 73% of their
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: customers are from outside of Israel. I actually would even
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: think more than that. So that's a compelling one you
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: really want to invest in. Here's another one I love,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: which is called Nova.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 7: Which is precision measurement.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: Now, for semiconductors, for the chips that are out there,
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: you know, the more complex these chips get, especially for AI,
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: the more precise the measurement has to be. So these
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: processors and memory manufacturing all need the work that Nova
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: does for them. So the harder the chips become to manufacture,
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: the more valuable Nova is. And then I have the
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: sixth one, which is Camtech.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 7: And this is very similar to Nova, which is also measurement.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: But it's also measuring not just advanced semiconductors, but advanced
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: semiconductors that have this.
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 7: High bandwidth memory, HBM.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: High bandwidth memory is one of the hottest, most important
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: areas because it's the memory that AI needs.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 7: AI needs so much memory. And that's where Camtech and
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 7: even that's where Nova comes in. Really wonderful stocks.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: Good stuff, Hillary. Thank you for checking in with us
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: from Tel Aviv today and continue blessings on your travel.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 2: We appreciate it. We'll talk to you next Monday.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 7: Thank you.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 7: Be well, be healthy, be safe.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: Kevin McKellar coming back from New York.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: Don't go away.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 13: Stick around for more of That Kevin next. Serving it
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 13: up with a no-drink minimum. It's that Kevin Mac show.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: Welcome back. Kevin McCullough, just the final few minutes. I'm
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: so excited to welcome a new sponsor of the show,
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: new partner of the show. ZStack is what I'm talking about.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 2: How many times have you turned on the news and
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 2: felt powerless, especially when watching the latest health scare that
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 2: someone's pushing? I can only imagine what doctors feel like specifically.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: And I was thinking of this the other day when
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 2: I was thinking about the late Dr. Zev Zelenko. He
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 2: knew that feeling well, which is why he created Z-Stack.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: Back in 2020, he was a frontline physician boldly sharing
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: early alternatives during the COVID crisis. And that led to
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: President Trump citing him during a press briefing.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 6: Dr.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: Zelenko didn't guess. He carefully selected what he included in
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: the Z-Stack ingredient and doses based on his research. He
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 2: got attacked, he got deplatformed for years, only to be
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: proven 100% right. Over five years later, that resilience endures
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 2: to carry on his legacy with his original formula for Z-Stack.

  Speaker 2: Kevin Show are sponsored proudly these days. by ZStack. ZStackLife.com
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 2: slash Kevin. ZStackLife.com slash Kevin. And I'll never forget. It
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 2: was really wild because Dr. Zelenko was a New York
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 2: tri-state area doctor. And I think, well, by the time
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 2: I had him on my show... I think he had
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: already treated more than 100 COVID patients. And we're talking
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: within the first few weeks of the lockdown. And he
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: was having incredible success with helping people not get sick,
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: not get as sick, not have as bad symptoms, all
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: the rest of it. And he was just basing it
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: all off of nutrition and improving a person's immune system.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: And that's all it was. And yeah, he got deplatformed.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: He got mocked. He got all kinds of things. I
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 2: still know that that particular podcast in my podcast archives
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: got more views than any other podcast we ever had
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: of any other show. And I think it was because
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: people were just wanting honest information from an honest person.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: And in that day and time, you'll remember Dr. Fauci,
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: who was supposed to be the gold standard was just
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: telling everybody to put on masks and get on ventilators
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: and hope for the best. And I thank God for
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 2: the handful of doctors that were brave enough to tell
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: the truth and who knows how many lives they saved.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 6: Dr.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 2: Zelenko, Dr. McCary, others that, you know, did not just
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: follow the company line, but actually applied medicine and nutrition
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: to people's health and, and helped a hundred percent and
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: to be, You know, to be vindicated in the aftermath
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: is sweet. I'm sad it came after his death. But
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: I'm really grateful that.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 8: Dr.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: Zelenko was able to make the impact that he had.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: And I'm very proud to have ZStack as part of
