  Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mamas. Dear mamas,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: when your leftist friends post hateful nonsense online, do you
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: engage or just let them be? Well, let's ask our
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: American mamas.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Alma mama, she said, enjoining us.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Now, our American mama is Terry Neediville and Kimberly Burlasin.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, there's a lot of nonsense around here. There's
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: the you can't criticize Kamala because your girls are watching.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: There's the okay, you said Joe was too old, Well,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump's just as old. Why don't you vote for Kamala.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: There's you got to stop your hate because we hate
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. If you vote for Donald Trump, then you're hateful.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: So that means you're a hateful person and we hate
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: you for that. There's all kinds of stuff out there
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: right now. It's really insane.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: It's insanity. This was actually the topic around the kitchen
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: table last night. You know, we're at Terry's house and
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: we talked about all of these friends.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: It's crazy.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: It reminds me of when Trump was running last time,
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: and just what they spew and what they say. And
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: I noticed that most of my conservative friends don't say much,
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean, or if they do say something,
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: it's a very balanced thing, you know. You know, I
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: love all my friends, you know, that kind of thing.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: But my leftist friends, oh, just the meanness. And I
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: asked your son, Terry, I said, Slade, what do you think.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: Do you think we respond or not? In Slay said, no,
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: it's their space. It's they can say whatever they want,
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: you know, and if you don't like it, you just
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: keep moving. I was like, yeah, you're right, you're right,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: you're right. And then he said And then I asked
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: your husband. I said, what about you? And he said,
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: you know, it depends on the moment. It depends on
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: the moment the person you're talking to. Because there's some
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: people it doesn't matter what you say, right, they're not
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: going to hear it. It depends on and he goes,
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: sometimes if I'm in that mood, yeah, I'll go at them,
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: you know, I'll say my part, you know, But for
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: the most part, I just let them say whatever they
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: want to say. But you and I we want to fight.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Well, it's here's the thing with me. Both of them
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: are correct. In my opinion. Slate is correct on social media,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: just keep I just keep scrolling because I do value friendships.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: And in the end, I know God is an ultimate control.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: The only thing that I can do is vote the
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: way that I want to vote, and then do what
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: we're doing right now, and that's telling people the truth,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: getting the truth out. Kevin is right when you're with
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: somebody in person, when you're talking to somebody, if they
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: engage me in person, there's no way I cannot not respond.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: There's no way.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: So I'll do it in a loving way, and I
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: accept what that even if what they say to me
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: sounds utterly ridiculous. I'll just say, that's interesting, but what
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: about this? And then I when I start viewing information
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: and facts, they don't a lot of times they don't
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: even know that happen, don't know it. They are like,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: what are you talking about? And is this Fox News?
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: And I'll say, I don't even watch Fox anymore. What
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: I do now, because I want to be informed, is
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I go online and I look to see.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: You know, you can find.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Whatever you want to find online. It depends on what
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: political I'll they land on.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Sure, somebody's putting something out there that will that will
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: tickle your fancy.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: So the best thing you can do is find someone
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: like Megan Kelly, Joe Rogan, people who are unwilling to bend,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: even if they're if they dislike Trump. Like sometimes Megan
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Kelly will say things I'm like, oh, she's so hard
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: on him, but she's telling the truth. It is the truth.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And I think Bill O. Riley's kind of in the
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: same Yeah.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just harder to listen to because he's so
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: he's just so unabashedly con no.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: I get that, and I don't want.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Nobody wants to talk to somebody who talk to somebody
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: who feels like they know it all.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: This brings me back to Teddy Roosevelt. One of my
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: favorite quotes from Teddy Roosevelt. And by the way, if
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: you really want to get inspired, go read go read
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: quotes from Teddy Roosevelt. Go read quotes from Calvin Coolidge too.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: That's a very underrated preident anyway, Teddy Roosevelt said, nobody
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: cares how much you know until they know how much
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: you care.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Yes, that's a great one.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I've heard it, and so until you're actually and I
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: absolutely agree with Kevin. There are times I just keep scrolling.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: But last week we did remember we did that segment.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: This was actually during the Republican National Convention, and we
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: did the segment on the don't trust a theology that
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: says a God will save a man from one bullet,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: but he won't save a whole classroom from him. Yes,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And I was saying, boy, what happened was I had
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: a friend who had posted that, and I had several
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: friends that had posted it, and I just scrolled by him,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and then I got to one and I really felt
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: like the Holy Spirit said, you know, I think you
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: can engage in this one. And so I went ahead
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and wrote back and went, Okay, if this is your idea,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: how do you explain? Noah? I said, I said, I
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: love you. If this is your idea of theology, how
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: do you explain Noah? And within thirty minutes he took
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the post down.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: And so there's a way to engage if you if.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: You respect each other, and if you're willing to learn
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: gain from their perspective like we are a lot of times,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: the ones online that Kimberly is talking about on Facebook,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: it is so hateful when they say I don't engage
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: in that because I think it's only gonna cause hurt feelings.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say something I regret and it's gonna
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna lose a friend. I just think, gosh, that's
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: not one in particular. She said something said, I believe this,
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: this is this, but I believe this for everybody, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I thought, no, we all believe that for everybody. We
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: all want that. I don't know how the media is
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: able to get away with shoring up this narrative that
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: we don't care, that we don't love everybody, no matter
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: if you're gay, straight, black. I don't know how they
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: get away with that. But that's why I feel like
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: that their audience is dwindling. People are opening their eyes.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: They're seeing there will be an opportunity for you to
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: have that conversation. Yeah, wait for the right opportunity. If
