• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Well, live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: It's America's favorite gun, total Bible clinging, deplorable.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: America's.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Love this American.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Todd starts, well.
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: Ye, well, hello everybody, welcome to the Top Starns Radio Show.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: Great to have you with us today. Wow. So we
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: we have some breaking news just to start out the
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: show here MBI director Cash Pattel. There was a story
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: that broke in the Atlantic a couple of days ago,
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: really nasty piece, and the reporters signing dozens and dozens
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: of anonymous sources with them in this nasty hip piece.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: And the whole point of this was to take out
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: Cash Patel, the FBI director, and the Atlantic claimed that
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Patel basically had a drinking problem and that he was
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: he was absent a lot. So the headline the FBI
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: director is m i A. And there were just there
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: were some really really nasty allegations that were that were
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: listed in this story. They cited more than two dozen.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: And by the way, the author is Sarah Fitzpatrick, and
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: she is one of these far left radical propagandists. She's
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: the one who tried to take out If you remember
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: Brett Kavanaugh and the yearbook story, all of that stuff.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: That was Sarah Fitzpatrick. So she has a She is
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: a notorious hit woman when it comes to politics in Washington, DC.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: So anyway, The Atlantic posted this story on Friday, and
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: it said that they cited more than two dozen anonymous sources,
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: nobody willing to go on the record. And she wrote
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: that Patel's conduct had often alarmed officials at the FBI
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: and the Department of Justice, and that he had earned
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: a reputation for acting impulsively during high stakes investigations. So
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: now we can tell you that Cash Battel has filed
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: a two hundred and fifty million dollar lawsuit against The
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Atlantic and miss Fitzpatrick. So he's suing both of them
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: in US District court and again he's wanting two hundred
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: and fifty million dollars in damages. Let me tell you
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: something about the Atlantic. These people are nasty, I mean
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: nasty people. They're demonic. These people hate conservatives, they hate
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: Donald Trump, and their goal in life is to take
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: out anybody who supports Donald J.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Trump.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Now, I don't know if you know. Again, there have
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: been lots of accusations against Cash Battel. But unless somebody
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: is willing to come forward on the record with evidence
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: that they're just that, they're just allegations, they're rumors. In
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: his complaint, mister Pell, mister Ptel, I'm reading for the
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: New York Times. Piece of this literally just broke as
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: we were coming on air. Mister Pittell accused the defendants
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: of publishing an article replete with false and fabricated allegations
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: designed to destroy his reputation and drive him from office.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Mister Pettel also said in the stuth the Atlantic had
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: published the article despite being expressly warned hours before publication
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: that these central allegations were categorically false. In other words,
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: they knew this hit piece was coming, and Patel tried
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: to say, hey, look, guys, you don't want to go
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: down this path. No, ladies and gentlemen. The one of
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: the big problems we have faced in this country is
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: the media. And there's a new survey out and we'll
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: get to that in just a moment, but there is
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: a new survey out showing that reporters are the least
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: trusted people in America. And I'm not surprised in the
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: very least. I mean, it is some ugly stuff, ugly stuff.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Poll after poll after poll, a majority of Americans express
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: low confidence in journalists to act in the public's best interest.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: And I'm going to tell you why. And I don't
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: mean to offend a lot of you Christian universities, but
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: I'm throwing everybody in the mix here because nobody's doing
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: a good job of training up the next generation of journalists.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: What they have done. What they have done is raise
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: up a generation of political activists. And even on the
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Christian school level, it is just as bad, if not
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: maybe even worse, the level of journalism. I have to
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: tell you this story. So years ago, this right after
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: I left Fox, I got a call and I cannot
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: tell you the name of the university. It was a
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: prestigious Christian university. And the president of the university called
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: and said, man, we're just so so disgusted with what
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: Fox did, and we want you to come to our
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: school and head up our journalism program. And I'm like,
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: I don't have a master's to go. I can't do that.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: I don't have the qualifications. But they were really wanting
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: me to come in to head up this journalism program
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: at this very prestigious Christian School, and ultimately I turned
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: him down. That's not I'm one of these guys. I
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: know my lane. I know what I'm good at doing,
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: and I know what I'm not good at doing, and
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: so I try to stay in my lane. And doing
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: this show is one of the things I think we
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: do a pretty darn good job of. I'm just telling you, so, No,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: I'm not boasting Dylan. I'm just saying if you're good
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: at something, and you know you're good at something, that's
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: called confidence. And I think we're pretty confident in what
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: we do here on the radio. So anyway, and the
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: other thing is, Dylan, could you imagine me? Is Professor Stearns.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to right now. Actually, would you wear like
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: a bow tie or like a monocle or something?
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'd wear the monocle. You gotta have the monocle.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Got the bow tie. I'd have to wear like the
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: what do you call that? The dress? Or a tweed.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: I could go with a tweed, a pipe.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: You definitely have to have those.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: It's wisdom, all right, students, Professor Stones, Yeah, wow, we
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: shall speak of journalism. Professor Yes, young woman, what is
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: your question? What makes you think a woman cannot get
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: go there, I did, you see, this is why I
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: couldn't be a professor. This is your you're no young lady.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Let them in speak first. I'd last three seconds. So anyway,
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: I turned I said, thank you. It was very kind,
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: very gracious. I may have to write about the story
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: once because I just think it's pretty dard and funny.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: So anyway, a couple of a couple of months later,
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: I was at this school and I went by and
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: one of the staffers pulled me aside and was sort
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: of laughing. He says, you're not going to believe this,
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: but this. They have a huge journalism program, a huge
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: broadcasting program at this particular school. And I'm getting back
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: around to cash matel but bear with me, and this
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: illustrates the problem with American journalism. And I said, well,
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: what's so funny. They said, well, somehow word leaked out
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: that you may be the dean of the school of
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: journalism at this particular university. And I said yes, and
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: I said, I turned it down. I mean, it was
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: like a phone call and it lasted all of maybe
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: ninety seconds. And they said, well, word leaked out and
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: the entire faculty was horrified that a conservative my be
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: leading their department. And at that moment, it told me
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: everything I needed to know about the state of Christian
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: journalism at some of these schools. So all that to
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: say it's bad, and I mean, I was personally honored
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: that I had triggered so many journalism professors. That was
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: a great honor. I wear that as a badge of honor.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: But in reality, what's happened is we've raised up this
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: generation of young people and as a result of that,
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: they are propagandists, and they've turned their newsrooms into these
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: propaganda centers. And I can actually take you back to
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: the moment in time when it happened, and it was
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: in the Washington Post newsroom when Watergate happened. And from
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: that point on, every single issue in our nation's capital
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: became a Watergate issue, every single one of them. And
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: it didn't matter if it was true or not. They
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: just kept churning out the scandal after scandal after scan
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: and most of these scandals turned out not to be true.
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: So I hope Cash Battel sues the living daylights out
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: of these people, and I hope he wins, and I
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: hope this Fitzpatrick chick. I hope she's having to spend
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: the rest of her days working as a cashier at
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: a wah wah. That's what I hope for her. You know,
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: at some point you just have to make sure these
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: people are suffering, because that's their whole point in what
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: they write. They want people to suffer. Now, I want
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: to give you an example. You said, well, starting what
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: about you. No, I don't want people to suffer. I
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: want him to do right. But I want to explain
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: that many of you get upset with me because let's say,
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: for example, there's a teacher doing something wrong, an anti
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Trump teacher or whatever. I traditionally do not include the
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: teacher's name unless they're doing something egregious. I usually leave
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: them aim out of it because I want to have
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: I want to offer extend a little bit of grace.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Let me tell you something. These propagandas are nothing more
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: than political assassins with byelines. That's who these people are,
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: political assassins with byelines. And they have tried to destroy
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: every single person who says anything nice about Donald J. Trump.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: That's it. So anyway, that's so good for you, Cash
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Battel and I hope that he wins, and quite frankly,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: he needs to put the Atlantic out of business. That's
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: what he needs to do. And again, ladies and gentlemen,
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: if you're going to go out there and you're going
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: to publish lies about someone, I think they should be
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: able to do that. Now the question is will cash Battel.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: Is Cash Battel a public figure? And that could be
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: that that could be the lynchpin here.
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: I want to tell you something that people say a
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: lot of a lot of stuff about me that's not true.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: They're lies, and I'm not allowed to go out there
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: and soothe them because I am considered a public figure
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: and as my my attorneys tell me that their people
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: are allowed to do that. And I don't think that's right,
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: but that's that's the law right now. And it angers me,
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: it bothers me. But all I can tell you is
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: that this Fitzpatrick girl, she is she's one of the problems.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: And again she is a political assassin with a byline.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: That's who these people are, all right. We have, man,
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: we have got a lot of news that again the
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: breaking news of the hour. A lot going on here.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: is our telephone number today. That's nine oh one two
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: six zero five nine two six. And let me just
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: say this. I know there are a lot of conservatives like, well,
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: you know, we just need to we just need to
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: move on. We we just you know, we don't need
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: to be getting involved in these lawsuits. The media is
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: going to be the media, and I say, horse honkey
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: with that. That's a load of great a fertilizer. In
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: my book, I say do unto them as they have
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: done to you. That is the political commandment. Do unto
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: them as they have done to you. And quite frankly,
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen, quite frankly, it needs to be done.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: It needs to be done. I'm just tired of the reporters.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: I am New York Times, all of them, and they
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: deserve what's coming they, every single one of them. And
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: if that means they live in squalor for the rest
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: of their lives, so be it. I'm done with these people.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: What the media has done in this country, what the
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: media has done to this country, and what the media
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: has done to good and decent conservatives and friends of mine.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: I'm just telling you, they deserve to be destroyed and
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: live out their lives in I don't know, in some
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: trailer park, in some godforsaken part of iload we'll ship
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: into Canada. But they're just evil, just evil. The question
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: is how do we fix it? And that is a
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: good question, and that is something that we have been
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: talking about within our crew, is how can we make
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: a difference. We have been very fortunate to raise up
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: seven or eight wonderful journalists that are doing a wonderful job.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: But it's going to take a lot more effort to
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: change what is broken in our nation's journalism program. And
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: by the way, that's one of the reasons why so
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: many newspapers are going out of business, so many TV
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: stations and radio stations are either merging or being bought
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: out by the big corporate giants. That's the reason why.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: All right, Jez, look, we got to take a break here.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: We've got to get to the war, the ceasefire I'm
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: said to expire. We're going to get into that. A
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: new gallop pole shows forty two of American men under
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: thirty say, religion is very important, and we're going to
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: be talking to you. A good friend of mine, Jeremiah Johnston,
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: right now, his new book number three of the New
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: York Times bestseller list, and he's going to be coming
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: in talking to us about that survey. Also a brand
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: new book called The Jesus Discoveries, and it turns out
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: that history proves that Jesus is real, and we're going
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: to go through that as well. Nine oh one two
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: six zero five die two six. This is the Todd
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Starns Show. Hey, everybody, Todd Stearns here, and I've got
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: to tell you about my friends at PhD Weight Loss,

• 14:38
  Speaker 4: twelve pounds already, and at PhD Weight Loss they've identified
• 14:42

• 15:09
  Speaker 4: hundred and say Starns, you're going to get two three weeks.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: You can't miss out on this, folks eight six four
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: six four four nineteen hundred, say the word Starns or
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: visit Phdweightloss dot com. That's Phdweightloss dot Com. The phone
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: number one more time eight six four sixty four four
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: nineteen hundred and say Starns. All right, welcome back, everybody.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: Pardon me. The allergies, the pollen here, it's a it's
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: a bit unbearable today in Memphis where we broadcast this
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: program from. So, look, President Trump putting out some statements.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: I want to share this with you, and I'm curious
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: to hear your thoughts on this. So the deadline, the
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: two week deadline, the so called ceasefire. It is officially
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: up tomorrow, Tuesday. And of course, all you know what's
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: been breaking loose over the weekend. The Iranians. They tried
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: to run the blockade. And God love our military and
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: the navy's been running blockade since the days of John
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Paul Jones, and God love them because they gave warning
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: after running six hours, they warned this ship not to
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: run the blockade. And guess what happened, Well, they ran
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: the blockade. So the Navy fired and took out took
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: out the engine room sent over the Marines and they
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: have now acquired the ship. So the question is what
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: happens next if the ceasefire, If the Iranians do not
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: agree to the ceasefire, what do we do? And the President? Look,
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: I know a lot of people are all upset about this,
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: but the reality is the President is playing a very
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: strategic game here. There's a lot of there is a
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: lot of necessary disinformation that is being broadcast, and that's
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: all part of the plan. The Iranians don't know what
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: Trump's going to do. Nobody knows what Trump is going
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: to do, and that's the whole point of this, because
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: nobody needs to know until it actually happens. But there
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: is Bloomberg now reporting that President Trump may quite frankly
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: not extend the ceasefire. And I think that's actually a
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: good move. Look, we've been down this path and the
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Iranians cannot be trusted. They are not men of their word.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: These are very bad, dangerous, evil people. And I say,
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: you know, as soon as the seasfire is over, let's
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: just go ahead and wipe them out. I mean, do
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: you really see this ending any other way? Here's what
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: I don't want to have are the drips and the drabs,
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: and we're going to continue to extend the ceasefires because
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: then you'll get into the summertime and this will be
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: a major issue on the campaign trail. And I say
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: that because there's some new survey data out, and this
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: survey data they interviewed young Americans. These are Generation Z kids,
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: and I would probably say young millennials, so in the
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: thirties eighteen to the people in their thirties, and an
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: overwhelming majority oppose oppose our relationship with Israel. And that
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: tells us a lot here as we're moving forward that
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: these younger generations are not beholden to Israel as much
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: as the older generations of conservatives are. That's going to
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: be a problem or future presidents, but it couldn't be
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: a problem for this president when it comes to the
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: midterms if in fact, we are still engaged in hostilities.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: So my recommendation go in, get it done, and get out,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: otherwise we're gonna get pulled into something that we're gonna
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: have a hard time getting out of. Nine oh one
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: two six zero five nine two six. Our telephone number,
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: that's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

• 20:29
  Speaker 4: I follow the Twitter feed and the social media feeds
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: of our next guest. He is the Lieutenant Governor of
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Indiana and he's a good Christian man, and he was
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: invited to speak to high school kids last week and
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: his remarks have come under fire, and I wanted to
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: I thought, well, we got to get we got to
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: get the Lieutenant governor. And I can't imagine what in
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: the world. Micah beck With would say that would trigger
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: school teachers and students there in Indiana. Lieutenant Governor, good
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: to have you with us today.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: Hey, thanks, Todd. I appreciate the opportunity to come on,
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: and I appreciate all you're doing, your great voice for America.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: To keep it up.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Well, take us through what happened. You were at what
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: valve is? A Valparaiso high school. You were speaking at
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: a career fair.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: That's right. So I was at Valparaiso High School for
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: speaking to about a thousand juniors and seniors all about
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Indiana jobs, what the great economy in Indiana's is booming,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: how we've got high tech industries, AI, drone technology, all
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: these things that these young men and women could aspire
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: to go into. And it was all if you ever
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: listened to me speak, Todd, I'm a lot like you.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: I can get political and I can get heated. But
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: this was one speech where I walked off the stage
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: and I thought to myself, that was the most benign
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: like nonpartisan speech I've ever said in my entire career.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: And so I was like, oh, I did a great job.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: And a couple students came up to me after the
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: auditorium was people were exiting and they were, you know,
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: on the left, you could tell they had the blue
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: hair and the hear things. And they came up and
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: they were pretty hostile, but they came right. They pressed
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: me and said, what do you.
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: Believe on abortion?
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: What do you believe on LGBTQ and trans What do
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: you believe on immigration? So, you know, I answered them.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: I said, abortion's murder. Transgenderism is a mental illness. If
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: people are here illegally, get them out, you know, I mean,
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: it's pretty basic stuff. I said. I think it's common sense.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Well then they went and they cried to their parents,
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: and the parents called the superintendent. Superintendent wasn't even there,
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: and he issues this incredibly stupid statement. His name's Jim McCall,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: and he he said, we're so sorry that we had
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: the lieutenant governor who came in, and you know, he
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: totally wasn't appropriate. Shouldn't have said things that he said
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: from the stage, is what he's making it sound like
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: it was. It was not clear that it was just
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: with a few students off the stage, and then some
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: parents got upset that I also had said something on
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: the stage about God. Given right or a God given skills, right.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: I said, hey, you've got God given gifts and there
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: are gonna be things you can do with those gifts
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: and in all these different fields. So I said, God,
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: and that'll want that to kick them off too, And
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: so it was just crazy. I left the school thinking, man,
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: a great career. Fair it was awesome to see, you know,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: what was going on, thinking, you know, it was awesome.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: It was a great day. And then within fifteen minutes
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: there was a change dot org petition already up saying,
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: you know, Micah bec, we should never be allowed to
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: come back to Valpharezo High School, you know. And it's like, oh,
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: my gosh, a government employee or government official went into
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: a government school with government employees and spoke about jobs
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: and when asked about some of his political opinions from
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: students off the stage, oh dear God, he answers them. Oh,
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: this is a terrible, terrible thing for America. I mean,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: it's just insane, but that's our education system, unfortunately.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: So I'm reading through this incredibly long diatribe written by
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: Jim McCall, the superintendent. Uh, you gotta love these guys.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: He's one of these guys that puts the pH d
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: after his name. And he said, I want to go
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: through this because he said that when you were introduced,
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: your biography included a political phrase that had no place
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: in the school. It should have been called and removed
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: by the staff. Do we know what that phrase was?
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: That that triggered everybody.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was in my biography. If he pulled
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: up on my website, it says I'm passionate about one
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: of my passions is training and raising up the next
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: generation and pushing back on the woo agenda. So that
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: was triggered this man to the point where he put
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: out a statement just the word woke scared. I'm gonna
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: send him a helmet because I feel like he needs to,
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't want him get hurt with other
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: ideas or other words that might you know, you.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Might send him something for his other his dairy air.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: I think he was a butt hurt as well.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: I mean, my goodness, so and again I just want
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: to understand. So you give this speech and then afterwards
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: the students come up to you, and there they actually
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: engaged you. Is that right exactly?
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: Wasn't It was not me engaging any students. It was
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: they be lined it right up to me, right up
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: to me, and they they said, you know, you could
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: tell they they had done their research on me, and
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: they they knew things I believed and they just wanted
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: to press me on it. And and you know, I
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: think a couple of them had their phones out and
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: we're recording and everything like that. And actually, Todd, I
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: was it was. I enjoyed that, like I love that.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: I love if you know, if you don't agree with me,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: it come with dialogue. You know, the Bible says, come
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: let us reason together. And I want to. I want
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: to be able to you know, hear your opinion and
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: hear your thoughts and I'll push back and give you
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: my opinion and where I'm and you know, iron sharpens iron,
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: so one man to another. So that's uh, you know.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: And there was one point, and it was really cool.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: There was this one girl came up. She was super
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: hostile right at the beginning. I sat down.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: I sat down on the stairs.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Right they what was sit down next to me? Like,
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: and so we sat down. A bunch of other kids
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: were kind of huddle around us, and we start talking
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: and I start talking about the transgender issue. And I said, listen,
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: I love these people. I love people who struggle with that,
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: but it is a mental illness. And it was. And
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: and at one point she actually started to soften. You
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: could see her kind of be like, Okay, I get
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: what you're saying. I get you know where you're coming from.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: And then some other people start jumped in, and then
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: she started getting mad again, and she jumped up, See,
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: I gotta leave because'm getting too mad. But it was
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: almost like there was a tiny little breakthrough. I was like, Oh,
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: she's getting it. And then you know, and then she
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: she didn't.
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: Why did that? What did they tell their parents? I
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: don't understand her. They went up and I guess they
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: didn't like the opinion they heard, and so they went
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: home to mommy and daddy.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, because we had the reports we got where
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: parents called in from some of these students and and
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: they said, you know, we don't like you know Mica
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: beck With. I think one of the things was Micah
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: beck Was said transgenderism is a mental illness. Well, that's
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: what the Medical Association had been saying for many years.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: It's called gender dysphoria. I'm not saying anything that's not
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: already out there in the medical field. But they didn't
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: want to hear that. They said, that was a very
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: insensitive and tolerant thing to say to these students. And
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: it's like, listen, I'm not going to affirm mental illness.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: I don't care, you know, I don't care what you
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: say to me. I'm not going to do it. And
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: so yeah, the parents called the school board and superintendent,
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: and again the superintendent wasn't even there. The teachers that
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: were in the room, and I'll tell you this, the
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: teachers were great. The teachers were fantastic, and actually the
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: teachers felt really bad. Some of these students were really disrespectful.
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: I was.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I gave him respect. I went to shake one one
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: student's hand and there was a teacher right there, and
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: the student wouldn't shake my hand. And I said, well,
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: why won't you shake my hand? He said, because I
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: have no respect for you. I said, okay, well that's okay.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: I'm here, I'm happy to answer your questions. And the
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: teacher afterwards told me, I am so embarrassed and I'm
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: so sorry that you were treated that. When I said, listen,
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: it's okay, I said, but just understand that our schools
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: now are really going downhill because these students have never
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: learned respect, they've never learned critical thinking. And our public
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: education system in India is really, really bad, really bad, Todd.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: And we spend half of our entire state budget on education,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: and it's going to train up snowflakes who can't critically think,
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: and they can't reason, and they certainly can't hear opposing viewpoints.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: And it's very, very concerning to me because the next
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: generation we'll be leading our industries, our schools, and our
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: nation someday. If we don't fix this and get it right,
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: it's going to go terribly wrong for us in the future.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: I think the thing that concerns me here is that
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: Indiana is such a conservative state. It's a red state.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: You guys have, you know, great lawmakers. People again would
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: be stunned to know that you guys have a look
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: like a woke education system there we do.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: It's the underbelly of the rot that's been happening in
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: Indiana for the last fifteen years. And it's the Marxist
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: It's the Marxist agenda. Like this is there they know
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: what to do. I mean, this is the playbook going
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: all the way back to the nineteen forties, like get
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: into the education system, begin to teach the teachers Marxism,
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: and then begin to teach the student Marxism. And so
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: we are graduating our students. They don't know God, they
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: don't understand God given rights, they don't understand what our
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: constitution and our forefathers how they built this nation. And
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: so my concern is, yeah, we're a red conservative state
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: right now, but give it about fifteen years and these
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: students that are graduating have no clue what up from down,
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: right from wrong, and it's going to be really bad.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: And that's why I've been fund in the alarm. Every
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: day I get to just say, our education system, we
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: need to put God back in it, we need to
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: put truth back in it. And we again, that's the
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: woke agenda We've got to push out of our schools.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: And I'm not going to stop saying it. I will.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: I will shout it from every rooftop. I'm on.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: All right, we have legenic govin Or Micah back with
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: from the Great Shit of Indiana on our Patriot Mobile
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: newsmaker line today. And again, have you had any conversations
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: at all with the superintendent. Did he reach out and
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: try to say, oh, hey, what happened here? Or did
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: he just go ahead and release the statement without any context, really.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Totally release the statement without any content. So when I now,
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: we waited for about twenty four hours from my office
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: to put out a response because we we like I
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: told my team too, it's like, let's just let's be
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: wise about this. I got his number, I called him
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: and left him a message, and I texted him within
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: like twice, and and he he never responded. And uh.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: And so when he never responded, I said, all right,
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: I'll like, it's it's fair game. So let's go. And
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: so we've been and now my mission is, you know,
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: to go after this guy and we're gonna highlight him
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: as a week leader. He's resigning, Praise God. He came
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: out a few weeks ago and said he was resigning,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: but he's going into the private sector, and I want
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: to find out where he's gonna go. I'm gonna highlight
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: that job, that industry and say this guy is a
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: weak man. He got bullied by a bunch of teenagers
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: to do something stupid. I don't think any Corporate America
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: CEO would want him on your team because if he
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: can get bullied by blue haired, you know, nosering teenagers,
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: then you know he's probably not gonna do much to
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: add value to your company. And this is the problem.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: I have very little patience todd for weak men. I
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: just it drives me up a wall. I do not
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: like week men. And we have an epidemic of week
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: men in America right now, and Jim McCall is the
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: poster child for that right now in Indiana.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: I'm just going to tell you, I'm fifty eight, so
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: I come from a different generation. Back when I was
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: in grade school and even in middle school and high school,
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: if you did something like that, if you had a
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: high level official coming in or a guest of any
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: status coming in to your school and you and those
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: kids did did to that speaker what they did to you,
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you, those kids would have been would have
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: been lined up at the principal principal's office for a
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: couple of licks with the paddle. I mean. But again,
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: I'm old school, and that's how they used to handle
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: things back in the day. But we didn't have this
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: kind of stuff because mom and dad actually taught you
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: how to behave at home before he ever showed up
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: in school.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's the inmates running the asylum right now.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think principles and superintendents like Jim McCall
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: are more scared of the students than the students are
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: of them, right I think, And the students know that.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: That's the crazy thing. The students know there's not one
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: thing a teacher can do to them. They can be
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: as disrespectful, they can be as arrogant, they can be
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: as just vile, they can use all kinds of inappropriate language,
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: and there's nothing the schools can do to them. And
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: so these kids know that there's no there's no consequences,
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: and unfortunately we are coddling these kids, creating snowflakes like
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: what I saw up in Valparaiso with those with those
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: handful handful of students, and they're gonna go out in
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: the real world and they're gonna get hit with a
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: ton of bricks when they meet people like me or
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: you that actually no stand our ground, don't we don't
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: get pushed around, and they're not going to know what
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: to do with that, and then they lash out like
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: little children because there's still little children. They might be
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: twenty seven year olds, but there's still little children emotionally,
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: and we need our schools to teach students how to
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: critically think and how to be emotionally mature, not emotionally weak.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: And that's just not happening in our schools right now.
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: All right, Well, we're going to continue the conversation, Snide.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: I know you're going to be on my newest Max
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: TV show. Great job though, and how you responded to
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: all of this, and again, we've got to call this
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: out every single time. We've got to call this out,
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: and we've got to make sure these people are held accountable.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you said that, Todd. And last thing I'll
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: say real quickly if I can. The reason people have said, well,
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: why are you going after him so hard? Because this
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: is the chilling effect that he just created for many
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: other schools. Do you think I'm ever going to get
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: called back in to speak at a job fair after this?
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: No way, schools will say, oh, we don't want that
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: type of fight. Do you think any conservatives will come
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: back in, will be called in to speak? No, because
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: they see what happened, Because just twelve students made a
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: stink and now this will be a chilling effect for
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: conservative Christian people to get in and speak. And that's
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: why we have to go after the Jim McCalls, because
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: this will now leave an everlasting impact if we don't,
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: if we don't stop it, and we've got to stop this.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: We've got to say, hey, you should be welcome. Let's
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: have different opinions, and let's not be afraid of somebody
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: else's ideas just because they're different than yours. And so
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: I appreciate you highlighting this and making it on a
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: national stage because it's very, very important to Indiana and
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: to the nation. So thank you.
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: All right, thank you, mister Lieutenant governor. Lieutenant Governor Mike
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: come back with everybody, and he will be with us tonight,
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: five o'clock Eastern on Newsmax. All right, nine oh one
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: two six zero five nine two six our telephone over.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two seeks.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: I would bet dollars to donuts, dollars to donuts, Dylan,
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: those kids causing a stink were either members of the
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: Theater Club or the LGBT Club. I'm putting some Gibson's
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: donuts on the line. All right, gotta take a break.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: We'll be right back. All right, let's go to the
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: phone lines. Mark and Bartlett, Tennessee listening to us on KAM. Hi, Mark,
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: what's on your mind today?
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Hey? God, I just had a comment about this sea spot.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I tried to read the Koran. I didn't make it
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: all the way through. But I'm a Christian. But according
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: to their religions, they are supposed to lie to us,
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: to cheat us, to deceive us. They are supposed to
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: they are commanded by their profit to do these things.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: We can't trust anything they say. The only thing they
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: respect is power. And if Trump is the man, he
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: will go in there and destroy them. And the rest
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: of the region is with us. So I don't think
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: that we should make another ceasefire with him. All they're
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: doing is trying to find a way to rearm.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: Well, that's my big concern, Mark, is what they're doing
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: during the cease fire. And look, we've got we have
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: so many eyeballs over there. So I certainly think that
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: you know, President Trump knows, the military knows exactly what
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: the Iranians are up to. It does appear that the
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: government structure over there is incredibly fractured, and nobody really
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: knows who's in charge right now. We will soon find
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: out because again, the deadline is tomorrow and President Trump
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: has laid down the law here. So the President is
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: a very wise man, Mark, and I believe that at
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: the end of the day he's going to make a
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: decision that everybody eventually will be very happy with.
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: I completely agree. The President is always right in my opinion.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: They can stay what they want, they can be Trump delusional, whatever.
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: The man is always ten steps ahead of everybody. I
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: think he knows exactly what he's doing.
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: Well.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: As a matter of fact, sixty minutes last night actually
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: acknowledged that President Trump was right and that the Iranians
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: were very close to being able to create and have
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: enough plutonium to build not one, but I think it
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: was ten or eleven your nuclear weapons. So at the
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: end of the day, Trump is always right. And it
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: sometimes you go into a situation and you're like, well,
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: I don't know about that, mister president, but I've learned
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: over the year's Mark, just step back, let the president
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: do his job, and it always works out in the end.
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: And I think that's what's going to happen here as well. Mark,
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: I've got to run. Thank you for that call. Hanging tide, everybody.
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: We're going right to your calls after the break. That's
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: This is The Todd Stern Show.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: common sense, conservative commentary from Todd stars.
• 38:32
  Speaker 8: Mis American.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: Anybody remembers school lunches? Hello, everybody, Welcome to hour or
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: two of the Big Show. I'm Todd Stern's great to
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: have you with us.
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: Depending on where you grew up, your school lunches were
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: probably not all that good. Right, you had the infamous
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: mystery meat. You always had the There was one point
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: where ketchup was actually considered a vegetable. Dylan, I was
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: curious when you were in high school. Did you partake
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: of the school lunches there at what's a South have
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: in high school?
• 39:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: South have in high school. I actually brought a peanut
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: butter and jelly sandwich every single day to school. Oh yeah,
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: but when they had the chicken sandwiches for the school lunches,
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: I did, however, steal some of those from my classroom.
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: Oh was that right? Yes, okay, well, nothing wrong with that,
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: I think, so it was that was a good It
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: was a good sandwich.
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: That in particular was pretty good. I never had anything else.
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: I know they had pizza and yes, the mystery meat.
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: So when we were in school, I don't remember much.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: I just remember the school lunches not being all that great,
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: except for pizza Day, where I don't know if you
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: guys if this this may have just been my school,
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: but we would get the pizzas on the tray, so
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: in other words, it was like a square pizza.
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we had the hexagon pizza. The hexagon okay, if
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: it perfectly in the.
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: Tray, it did it just are right there and just
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: PLoP it down. Then we moved to Louisiana, and I'm
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: just gonna say this, and it will cause controversy. The
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: school lunches in Louisiana were far better than those in
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: Mississippi and Tennessee. And we would have stuff like jambalaya
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: and just all sorts of great food and a lot
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: of it. And they made the roles. They had homemade roles,
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: and there was something about a homemade role. I don't
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: know what But anyway, they just really put a lot
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: of emphasis on the food in Louisiana. Then there was
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: the weird thing on Friday. You know, most of the
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: most of the kids down there in Louisiana were Catholic,
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: and I guess they still are Catholic. And on Fridays
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: you weren't allowed to eat meat, so we always had
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: to eat like fish, so we had like catfish or
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: fish steaks on Fridays. Never could understand that, I'm a Baptist.
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: We eat everything all the time. So the reason why
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: I asked this is that there's a bit of controversy
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: regarding school lunches and somebody sent me the survey they
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: found on social media about whether pork should be removed
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: from school menus out of respect for Muslim students, and
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: I thought, what that. I have not heard of that,
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: But there are a number of school districts around the
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: country where that is now becoming an issue. Let's go
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: to Dearborn, Michigan, for example. All of the food served
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: in the public school cafeterias is now compliant with Islamic laws,
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: so that means all of the food has to be
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: hallal approved. Now, all of that happened back in twenty nineteen.
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: That's when they started, and they said that serving halal
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: meat was not really just about religion. They say that
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: halal food is actually healthier than what other religious faiths consume.
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: And the the reason I'm laughing is somebody attached to
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: video that showed how they make how they make hamburgers
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: in India with feet.
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: Oh no, that's just.
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: Like, so if I'm going, if I'm going over there,
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: just don't order the hamburger.
• 42:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, not my first thought, but yeah, I'm definitely taking note.
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry. Anyway, I can't confirm that they are they smushing.
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: They're smushing. Yeah, so they're smashing with their feet.
• 42:24
  Speaker 5: It's just like a smashburger, but you put your foot
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: on it.
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: Yes, it's a it's a foot smash burger. Yeah. Here's
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: the thing. And I don't mean this in a bad way,
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: but if it's a cheeseburger, would the cheese get like
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: gummed up in between your toes? I don't know how
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: they deal with that.
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: They use the toe cheese as the.
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: And again with AI and it may be completely AI.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: I have no idea what they're doing. I want to
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: judge other people. Well, what's the one that the what
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: is it? The Ugandans they eat with their hands. Oh, yes,
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: we saw that with Ma'am Tommy.
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, they eat the hot food with the hand.
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: I don't get that. So anyway, they say that hallal
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: food is actually healthier than what all of you Baptists
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: and Methodists are eating. Then Portland, Oregon has now announced
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: they are serving ha law meals for students, and New
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: York City has a hallal food program dedicated exclusively to
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: serving the Muslim children. So look, I'm just surprised here
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: because all of these schools have been so adamant that
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: we've got a god can can not be anywhere near
• 43:27
  Speaker 4: a public school facility, and yet they're just rolling out
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: the red carpet here for the Islamic kids. I just
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: don't get that. So anyway, Oh, there's another school, and
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: we told you about this in Nashville, where two schools
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: are now just going above and beyond to not only accommodate,
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: but force other students to celebrate the Muslim holidays. And
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: now comes word that a school district in the northwest
• 43:58
  Speaker 4: suburbs of Minneapolis, this is Park Center Senior High School,
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: has announced a remodeling project and they're going to be
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: adding a prayer room at the public school and foot
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: washing stations at another school. So you can't make this up.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: And no, Dyla, that's not for the foot washing Baptist. No, no,
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: that's the musclem tradition. So they got to wash their feet, yes,
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: after making the burgers. You know it's that could be Ai,
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: It can't be real. I don't want to know. Let
• 44:34
  Speaker 4: me tell you something. Whenever I go overseas, which is
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: like never, but if I were to go overseas, I'd
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: be packing like the little proachin bars, protein bars and
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: bottled a lot bar. That's it. I'm good. What's your
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: second bag, sir? It's my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: will say this though, when we were in Israel, you
• 44:57
  Speaker 4: know you got the acid reflex. I'm in the South.
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: Everything's fried. Do you what me to do? So I'm
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: over in Israel and I noticed something right away. The
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: food is just unbelievably delicious. And I realized after like
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: two days, no acid reflux, no indigestion, nothing because of
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: the I guess the purity of the ingredients over there.
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: But it was really, really a great experience. But I
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: wouldn't try that any other place. I am so particular.
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: So now you've got these schools. This is Park Center
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: High School and o Ceo Senior High School, both now
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: including prayer rooms and foot washing stations. They say they
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: were included after hearing from user groups on student needs.
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but where did the Baptist kids get to
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: go and have their prayer meetings? What room does that
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: happen in? I'm just curious. So look, I got to
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: thinking about this whole ban on pork and Dylan. I
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: don't think that's going to go over well here in Memphis, Tennessee.
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: We'll got very I'm just gonna tell you, I don't
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: think those Southern states are gonna comply.
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: We actually make protest. If that happens here, that's that's
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: a that's a no no for the South.
• 46:09
  Speaker 6: No.
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: I think we would take up arms, I really do.
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: We're talking about taking up ribs. That's right fully eating ribs.
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: Give me pulled park, give me death, I think. And
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: I think we would secede from the Union rather than
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: give up our pork pots. I think that's that's where
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: we are on this. Yeah, I don't think. I don't think.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: I don't think we're gonna be doing that here in Memphis.
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: We're like, we're gonna take a pass. Good luck, Oh
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: Jesus loaf. All right, let's go to the phone lines.
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: Do you, ladies and gentlemen, have a problem with this
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: outright accommodation that's happening at public schools around the nation
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: for the Islamist nine oh one two six zero five
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: nine two six. Let's go to the phone lines. Jerry
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: in Iowa on k x EL Hi, Jerry, what's going on?
• 47:05
  Speaker 8: Brothers Tom and Dillon, Thanks for the Fiedburger story. I
• 47:11
  Speaker 8: have a comment out of question. When I was growing
• 47:14
  Speaker 8: up US kids, we were taught that Israel is a
• 47:18
  Speaker 8: good and decent country, that Jews are good and respectful,
• 47:22
  Speaker 8: and every single book and the New Testament was written
• 47:27
  Speaker 8: by a Jew, and then Jesus is a Jew.
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: So what's not to like?
• 47:32
  Speaker 8: And so to that, yesterday at church, I wore a
• 47:35
  Speaker 8: Yamaica in church. I'm a Christian, and I did so
• 47:39
  Speaker 8: because I just wanted to promote Jews in Israel. And
• 47:44
  Speaker 8: our entire congregation bowed our heads and prayed for Jews
• 47:49
  Speaker 8: in Israel, and we did the same thing in Sunday school,
• 47:53
  Speaker 8: and then after church, a couple of us we put
• 47:56
  Speaker 8: on Maga hats and we went down to Des Moines
• 47:59
  Speaker 8: and we had a delicious Kosher meal and a Jewish
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: deliu and it was a lot like Israel. Like you said, healthy,
• 48:07
  Speaker 8: healthy food, really tasty. And we're probably going back next Sunday,
• 48:11
  Speaker 8: another church of another pastor. And why is it that
• 48:15
  Speaker 8: for twenty years Qatar has been pumping four billion dollars
• 48:19
  Speaker 8: into American universities and they're the one they helped to
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: promote this River to the Sea mentality, And so now
• 48:26
  Speaker 8: we're supposed to do the opposite of how I was
• 48:29
  Speaker 8: taught as a Christian child to respect Israel. And so
• 48:34
  Speaker 8: my question is when are we going to resume teaching
• 48:39
  Speaker 8: American children that Israel and Israel is a good democracy,
• 48:45
  Speaker 8: it's we get Western civilization, and that the Jews are
• 48:49
  Speaker 8: good and decent people, they are not conspiratorial monsters. When
• 48:53
  Speaker 8: are we going to resume that and reverse what Katar
• 48:57
  Speaker 8: has done to us?
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: So do you think are you you're saying it is Qatar? Jerry,
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: You've been able to like drill down and that's that's
• 49:05
  Speaker 4: where all of the anti Israel stuff is coming from.
• 49:09
  Speaker 8: That is a fair question. I don't have the information
• 49:12
  Speaker 8: right now.
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: Could you called me on that.
• 49:14
  Speaker 8: I have looked into it in the past. I don't
• 49:16
  Speaker 8: have notes on that. But my understanding is qutar from
• 49:20
  Speaker 8: multiple I like to hear from multiple sources, I trust.
• 49:23
  Speaker 8: But that's a good challenge for me. Yeah, go ahead,
• 49:25
  Speaker 8: let's all look that up and find out. My understanding
• 49:28
  Speaker 8: is four billion dollars have come from Qatar of the
• 49:32
  Speaker 8: last twenty some years in to the university and promote
• 49:35
  Speaker 8: all these Islamic organizations that have popped up in all
• 49:38
  Speaker 8: this anti Israel. So fair question.
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, I mean I think the numbers go from
• 49:45
  Speaker 4: four to six billion dollars, and most of that money is,
• 49:48
  Speaker 4: like you said, going to universities here, a lot of
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: the IVY leagues, So it is certainly possible that you know,
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: the influence is happening there. And then is just what
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: what are kids like learning about in the classroom. I
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: just and I don't mean this in a bad way.
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: I just I think back to when I was that age,
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: Jerry as a I don't know, a fifteen sixteen seventeen
• 50:10
  Speaker 4: year old. I don't think I was that clued in
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: on what was happening with Israel. I probably didn't know
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: much about Israel at the time from a political standpoint.
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: So I wonder if most of this is this indoctrination
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: is coming out of the classroom more so than any
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: other place. Of course, now you know, with the advent
• 50:30
  Speaker 4: of social media, you know that you know that has
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: certainly that's got some sort of play in this well.
• 50:36
  Speaker 8: As kids were taught that the disciples were Jewish, that
• 50:39
  Speaker 8: Jesus was Jewish, that Israel is where the Bible comes from,
• 50:43
  Speaker 8: and so we I'm in my world as kids and
• 50:45
  Speaker 8: my other kids here in Iowa, my grandmother taught us that, yeah,
• 50:50
  Speaker 8: that the Jewish people were Yeah, there was that issue
• 50:53
  Speaker 8: with the priests and Jesus, but for the most part,
• 50:55
  Speaker 8: this is where our civilization comes back from. So we
• 50:58
  Speaker 8: I most definitely given a favorable image for Israel and Jews,
• 51:03
  Speaker 8: and I wish we would put that into schools instead
• 51:06
  Speaker 8: of promoting Islam. I mean, what is wrong with us
• 51:09
  Speaker 8: that we're going to side with the Takia Muslim problem.
• 51:15
  Speaker 8: That's where how we started our marines in seventeen seventy
• 51:18
  Speaker 8: six because they were boarding our ships. So, Israel or
• 51:20
  Speaker 8: US is a Judeo Christian nation, and I was always
• 51:24
  Speaker 8: taught that the Jews in Israel we're the good guys,
• 51:28
  Speaker 8: especially since nineteen forty eight. The US and Israel we
• 51:31
  Speaker 8: are best friends right now, not Canada, not England. And
• 51:35
  Speaker 8: support your local deli and they're wonderful people and the
• 51:39
  Speaker 8: food is so healthy and tasty, just like in Israel,
• 51:42
  Speaker 8: just like you said. So, yeah, let's start teaching our
• 51:45
  Speaker 8: kids that the Jews are the good guys. Israel is
• 51:48
  Speaker 8: our friend.
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, bad guy, Yeah, Jerry, I think you know you've
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: made your point. Aaron, I've got a break here. But again,
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: this is an education process. I mean it really is.
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: So once again, as we say on this program, it
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: all goes back to education. It all goes back to
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: what is happening in your local schools, both public and private.
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: And if the school has an anti semi teacher or
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: a Jew hating teacher or faculty, well that's what's going
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: to happen with your kids. So you've got to pay
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: very close attention to what is being taught in those classrooms.
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 52:24
  Speaker 4: We do have to take a break here at nine
• 52:26
  Speaker 4: oh one two six zero five nine two six is
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: five nine two six. This is the Todd Sterns Show,
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: and this segment of the Todd Sterns Radio Show more
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: on to you by our friends at Newsmax. Did you
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: know seventy million Americans collect Social Security benefits, but seventy
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: percent of Americans are not getting the full benefits they deserve.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: And we've got a solution for that. Social Security expert
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: Michael Allen says there are five key strategies to increase
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: your benefits by as much as one hundred and eighty
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: eight thousand dollars over a lifetime. It's all in his
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: free special report, and Newsmax wants you to have a
• 53:17
  Speaker 4: copy of that free of charge. Whether you're getting benefits
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: or soon will you need to read the Social Security Report.
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: You can get it free by simply calling one eight
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: hundred six ninety that's eight hundred ninety six ninety. Text
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: and data rates may apply. All right, So I want
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: to get back to what's happening with the president, and
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: this is a well, you know what I'm going to
• 53:47
  Speaker 4: hold off of that for a minute. We'll get to
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: the president at a moment. I want to go to
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: what's happening in Virginia because there is a mess there
• 53:56
  Speaker 4: right now. The voter turnout they anticipate is going to
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: be for tomorrow's election. This is a huge election. And
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: here's the reason why voters will determine whether or not
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: the Republican Party will be able to survive. It's that simple.
• 54:11
  Speaker 4: This is all about redistricting. And if you're listening to
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: us in Virginia tomorrow, the only thing you need to
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: know is vote no. It doesn't matter how the referendum
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: item reads. Vote no. Here's former Governor Glenn Youngkin cut
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: number nine.
• 54:27
  Speaker 9: Twenty and sixteen when Eric Holder, right when he got
• 54:30
  Speaker 9: out of the Obama administration, started the Democrat Redistricting Commission,
• 54:34
  Speaker 9: and then in twenty twenty two and again in twenty
• 54:36
  Speaker 9: twenty four, they pressed to pick up seats in New York.
• 54:40
  Speaker 9: But with all that said, it's about Virginia, and Virginia
• 54:44
  Speaker 9: in twenty twenty held a constitutional referendum amended our constitution
• 54:49
  Speaker 9: to have nonpartisan, independent redistricting. Two thirds of Virginia said
• 54:54
  Speaker 9: we want politics out, politicians out, and now we have
• 54:58
  Speaker 9: Abigail Spamberger saying she's going to ignore the voice of Virginians,
• 55:02
  Speaker 9: override them, and try to adopt the most jerrymandered map
• 55:06
  Speaker 9: in America. Today, we have what is what is assessed
• 55:10
  Speaker 9: as the fairest map in America.
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: I don't love it.
• 55:12
  Speaker 9: It's it's six Democrats and five Republicans, but it's fair,
• 55:16
  Speaker 9: and she wants to override it and turn it into
• 55:19
  Speaker 9: the most jerrymandered map in America. It's wrong. Virginians should
• 55:22
  Speaker 9: stand up and vote no tomorrow.
• 55:25
  Speaker 5: Do you think that Republicans or even I understand that
• 55:28
  Speaker 5: there are some Democrats who don't like this either.
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: Is there a chance that this might not happen.
• 55:32
  Speaker 9: There is a chance, and that's because it is viewed
• 55:36
  Speaker 9: as being such a jerrymandered grab of power, and they've
• 55:40
  Speaker 9: lied to us. I mean, even the Washington Post came
• 55:42
  Speaker 9: out and said that this is the most brazenly dishonest
• 55:46
  Speaker 9: campaign from the Yes vote, and they effectively endorsed the
• 55:50
  Speaker 9: no vote. The Washington Post and Virginians understand this. And
• 55:54
  Speaker 9: so what we're seeing is not only Republicans coming together,
• 55:57
  Speaker 9: but independence and a lot of Democrats. So this is
• 56:00
  Speaker 9: going to be close. Listen, it's an uphill battle because
• 56:03
  Speaker 9: they have poured seventy million dollars into this. That's more
• 56:07
  Speaker 9: than they spent on the on the Governor's race in
• 56:10
  Speaker 9: a very short period of time to try to full
• 56:13
  Speaker 9: deceive and trick Virginians. But the reality is a no
• 56:16
  Speaker 9: vote is for the fairest maps in America.
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: And well he's absolutely right about that. So again, all
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: of you Virginia listeners, get out there, bring your neighbors,
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: vote no and stop this Democrat takeover. All right, we've
• 56:30
  Speaker 4: got to take a quick break here. Nine oh one
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: two six zero five nine two six. This is the
• 56:35
  Speaker 4: Todd Sterns Show, all right. Coming up tonight on The
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: ton Stern Show on Newsmax, Ben Ferguson's going to drop by. Also,
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: we're going to be talking to a guy who got
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: fired because he refused to take off his cross necklace.
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: The American Center for Law and Justice now representing the guy.
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: We're gonna have the guy and his attorney on. That
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: is going to be a terrific, terrific conversation coming up
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: this evening, five o'clock Eastern on The Tod Stern Show
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: on Newsmax. A very interesting survey at and quite frankly
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: one that I hope you find to be encouraging. The
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: number of young men attending church is on the rise.
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: This is all revealed in a new survey by Gallop
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: and they do a great job of polling. They've been
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: around for a very long time. They say forty two
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: percent of men ages eighteen to twenty nine say that
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: religion is very important to them, which is a sharp
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: increase from the previous data point when just twenty eight
• 57:57
  Speaker 4: percent of young men said religion was very very important.
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: So there's something going on here. What I especially find
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: interesting is that an overwhelming majority of these young men
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: happen to be Republican, so they're not godless ethens. There
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: you go. I mean, if you're looking for evidence, well
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: you've got it. I want to go to the Patriot
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: Mobile newsmaker line. And we are honored to have a
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: very special guest. He is a good friend. He is
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: one of the pastors there at Prestonwood Baptist Church near Dallas,
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: the pastor of apologetics and cultural engagement, and he has
• 58:33
  Speaker 4: written a new book. And this book, called The Jesus Discoveries,
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: is flying off the bookshelves all over America, two weeks
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: now on the New York Times bestseller list, breaking all
• 58:44
  Speaker 4: sorts of records out there. Doctor Jeremiah Johnston joins us,
• 58:49
  Speaker 4: Doctor Johnston, good to have you with us.
• 58:52
  Speaker 10: My scholar and gentlemen friends, Todd, it's great to see
• 58:56
  Speaker 10: you and be with you on your amazing radio network.
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: Thanks for having me.
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: We've got so many things they talk about, Well, we do.
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: And what we're going to do is, doctor Johnston, we're
• 59:05
  Speaker 4: going to put you on a hole for just a
• 59:07
  Speaker 4: second and we're going to try to get some audio
• 59:09
  Speaker 4: issues worked out. And the guys just let me know
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: when we can do that. We may have to switch
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: to phone, but my apologies for that. But again, doctor
• 59:18
  Speaker 4: Jeremiah Johnston, and he's written a great book that shows
• 59:24
  Speaker 4: through a very creative way that the history of Jesus.
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: You know a lot of people say, well, you know
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: Jesus really didn't exist, or it was a nice guy
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: and you know he was just a good person, when
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: in reality, ladies and gentlemen, we know that Jesus Christ
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: is the son of God, and we also know that
• 59:47
  Speaker 4: history proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt that not
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: only did Jesus exist? But all of the things revealed
• 59:54
  Speaker 4: in Holy Scripture can be verified through historical data. So
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: this is it's a terrific book. And again I think
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: number three on the New York Times bestseller list. So
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: well done, doctor Johnston. And we'll get to we'll get
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: to that conversation just a moment. I think we're switching
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: over to the phone lines right now. But going back
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 4: to this survey, there is something going on here in
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 4: this country, and I think that is a good thing.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 4: According to according to the Gallop data, since twenty twenty three,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: attendance church attendants has risen seven points among young Republican
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: men and eight points among young Republican women, and only
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 4: three points among young Democratic men. You can read that
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 4: those are the stats. That's the data. So all that
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 4: to say, young people going back to church, that is
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 4: a good thing in this country. All right, I think
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 4: we've re established a contact with doctor Johnston. And again,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 4: congratulations on this great new book that you wrote.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 11: Well, thank you. And I just think it's scratching where
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 11: people are itching Todd. You do this every day, eight
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 11: days a week. But we are tired of people insulting
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 11: our intelligence as conservatives. And what's really cool is we
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 11: are living in the most exciting time in history to
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 11: be a follower of Jesus. There is more evidence at
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 11: our fingertips right now, Todd that proves not only that
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 11: Jesus died and rose again, but also validates all of
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 11: his ethical claims. And what I wanted to do was
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 11: simply just to answer a question that I'm a dad
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 11: of five and I have four sons, so I'm keenly
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 11: interested in what you're sharing about young men coming back
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 11: to church. And the reason is is we're actually not
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 11: insulting their intelligence anymore. We're saying we believe you not
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 11: only know how to think, but you want to love
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 11: God with your heart's soul in mind. And my children said, Dad,
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 11: you've got to get write a book about everything we
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 11: can know about Jesus. But you can't use the Bible.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 11: Not because of course we love the Bible, we love
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 11: the Word of God, but they're skeptical. For ends are
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 11: on TikTok all day long and have brain rot.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 3: They they need to know.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 11: That there's actually evidence for the Christian worldview. And of course,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 11: when I spoke the World Economic Forum, this is what
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 11: I said Todd, I said, you know, I was working
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 11: with the people. I think they're going to work with
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 11: the anti Christ someday, just so you know they need
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 11: the Gospel too, brother and true.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 6: I told him.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 11: I told them at the World Economic Forum that the
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 11: event horizon of Western civilization and free enterprise, make no mistake,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 11: is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. And
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 11: so I wanted to write a book where in about
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 11: three hours of reading you would be able to give
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 11: the best evidence for Jesus without even having to open
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 11: your Bible. And it turns out the evidence is overpowering
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 11: and it's life changing.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 4: So is it life changing? I mean, do you have
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: you had those experiences of people who were doubters, and
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 4: you know, they see this historical evidence and they convert.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: Hold my diet, coke.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 11: Well, I tell you, Todd, if you don't mind, let
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 11: me get the lawn chair out. Yes, thousands are coming
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 11: to Christ because they realize that the evidence is so
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 11: powerful it demands their life, It demands their commitment that
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 11: the fact that the best established fact of the ancient
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 11: world is that Jesus rose from the grave on April fifth,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 11: eighty thirty three. We're seven years away, by the way,
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 11: from the two thousandth anniversary of the actual day of
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 11: Jesus's resurrection, and that truth has a power because it
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 11: gives people hope. And that's what I want my book
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 11: to do. And Todd, I do need ask your permission,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 11: I need your help. My book right now is number
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 11: two overall in all books on Amazon, not just nonfiction,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 11: not just every single book. I'm duking it out with
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 11: Ryan Gosling's Project Hail Mary and some vampire romance. I
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 11: have no idea how many people by novels. So I
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 11: need your audience as held use the Jesus Discoveries by
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 11: it on Amazon and use it as a great evangelism
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 11: tool to tell people that Jesus is alive.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that. And yeah, we can't have Gospeling
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 4: showing you up like that. So we've got to a
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 4: little bit.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 6: Are you kidding?
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: I have I have I have two questions of and
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: I mean I really have a lot of questions, but
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 4: number one, I'm sorry, how does a Baptist preacher get
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 4: invented the World Economic Forum? I'm curious about that story.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 12: Isn't that amazing?
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 6: Well?
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: This is really cool.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 11: Rich Strombach who is known as mister Davos, had a
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 11: conversion experience in twenty twenty two. He used to do
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 11: billionaire hot tub parties, never left his penthouse, and he
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 11: had a conversion. And Todd, I'm called as an apologist,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 11: as you know, but maybe some of your audience may
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 11: have heard that word for just the first time. It
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 11: doesn't mean I apologize for anything. It means I give
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 11: a defense for the faith. And we've done so many
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 11: videos on YouTube that have gone viral about the evidence
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 11: for the resurrection, the evidence for Jesus. I use coins,
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 11: I use crucifixion, nails, I use all kinds of fun stuff.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 11: And mister Strombach got his hands on a video I
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 11: did recently, and he called me and he said, whatever
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 11: it takes, you're going to be the first faith speaker
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 11: in the history of data, which of course was started
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 11: by the corrupt klau Schwab. And then they had to
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 11: get rid of the most recent president. He was in
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 11: the Epstein files. And guess what talked Jillian ted who
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 11: is the on the editorial board of Financial Time.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: She interviewed me in the.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 11: Wash I can't I'm not making this up. The Washington
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 11: Post sponsored my Faith Session. I mean, what world are
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 11: we living on? That's how much people need right now.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 11: And I didn't hold back, and guess what, They've invited
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 11: me to come back and lead the Faith section now,
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 11: which we actually have a faith section at West now beginning.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 11: I'm happy to announce on your program in January of
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 11: twenty twenty seven.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 4: Oh that's well, that is tremendous and revival.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 11: I mean, what you're saying is happening. It's not just
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 11: America either. It's eighty five percent men at Davas. They're
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 11: hungry for truth, They're hungry for evidence, and that's what
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 11: I think we need to keep giving people. And that's
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 11: why your shows are so successful. That's what you do
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 11: every day.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 4: You know, I go mack in time to the early
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 4: days of JD. Rockefeller and you know, one of the
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: wealthiest men in America. Who else so and again his
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 4: politics were a little squirrely, but he was a devout
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 4: Christian man. He helped start the Baptist Church and Baptist
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 4: Sunday School in New York City and started seminaries and
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 4: really invested his money in, you know, sharing the gospel.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: And I think that's so vitally important for there was
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: a time when Christian businessmen especially, we're at the forefront
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 4: of the Gospel movement and that needs to happen again.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: That's what excites me about this your appearance of the
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: World Economic Forum.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 11: You know it's sad, though, Todd, what is a commentary
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 11: if you don't mind me mentioning something transparent with you
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 11: with your audience. Do you know how many Christians had
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 11: turned down mister Strombach they were too afraid to go
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 11: to with I was not the first one he asked, really,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 11: and so we have to get some grit. We have
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 11: to take the gospel seriously. We have to take truth
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 11: seriously enough to share it in no matter the cost.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 4: No, well, you're you're absolutely right about that. And again
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 4: this you know, I understand how important your book is
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: because you tackle some of the big questions. And one
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 4: of them which I'm really fascinated by, is the Shroud
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 4: of Turin, which the last we heard was disproved back
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: in what the nineteen eighties that it was medieval, But
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: you you found something.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 11: Else, the data behind the Shroud of Turin. And again
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 11: it's important for the audience to know. I used to
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 11: be a complete skeptic of the shroud. I wrote an
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 11: entire book called Body of Proof and never even mentioned
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 11: the shroud because I thought it was a Catholic relic
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 11: and I didn't think it could be tested with the sciences.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 11: But then I reached out to Barry Schwartz, who literally
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 11: gave the ted talk on the Shroud of Turin. He
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 11: was a Jewish person who is part of the original
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 11: scientific team that studied the shroud. Took him seventeen years
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 11: after he studied the shroud to believe it was authentically
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 11: Jesus's burial shroud. And what convinced him is, are you
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 11: ready for me to blow your mind and read till
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 11: you on this true?
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: I'm prepared.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 11: Are you ready to become a shroudy? Okay, I need
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 11: you to become an shroudy now let me just machine ahead.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the shroud.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 11: You're a shrouding now, so you're getting ready to be
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 11: so at any rate type AB human blood, semitic blood,
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 11: blood that's been traumatized as on the shroud. The carbon
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 11: dating has been utterly shown to be a complete fabrication.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 11: There's a journal of the twenty nineteen Journal of Archaeometry
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 11: that shows that the samples that they use to quote
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 11: unquote carbon date the shroud to the medieval era are
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 11: not homogenous with the shroud itself. That means they used
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 11: patched or contaminated samples. They didn't even even use an
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 11: actual part of the shroud that was not contaminated. And
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 11: then when you do the correspondence of how much light
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 11: it took, because what the shroud is. We have a
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 11: lot of burial shrouds. I mean I've been I've seen
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 11: many of them from the land of Israel. We have
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 11: only one shroud that has an image of the crucified
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 11: man on the front and back. The image tod is superficial.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 11: It's one fifth the size of a piece of one
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 11: of your hairs on your head. That's how sin it
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 11: is point oh two microns, and so science can't reproduce this. C. S.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: Lewis kept a.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 11: Picture of the shroud in his bedroom where every day
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 11: he would wake up, he would look and he would say, Wow,
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 11: my God has a face, and that's the face of
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 11: Jesus in the shroud, and when you look at it.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 11: I went to turn Italy to see the shroud. I
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 11: met with the physicists. This is what will blow your mind.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 11: The amount of energy it took to leave an image
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 11: on the shroud without scorching it, according to Paula de Lazaro,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 11: and I write all about this in Jesus Discoveries. Thirty
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 11: four billion wants of energy, four times the amount of
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 11: power we have on earth, but was create. What's wild
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 11: about it is the speed at which it traveled, one
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 11: fortieth of the billions of the second and that's the
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 11: power that generated Jesus's body coming back to life, according
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 11: to physicists Paula de Lazos. So that's why the mathematician
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 11: Bruno Barbaras said doctor Johnston, there's a one to two
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 11: hundred billion chance that is not Jesus of Nazareth based.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: On the science.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 11: So I believe the shroud is authentic Todd, because I'm
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 11: not irrational.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 4: Doctor Jeremiah Johnson is joining us. Ses the the author
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: of the New York Times bestselling book The Jesus Discoveries,
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 4: And you're going to want to get a copy of that.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: You know, in your conversations with people that you know
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 4: just are that they're not quite there yet. Is there
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 4: one thing that that really you've noticed really convinces people
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 4: that Yes, Jesus is real.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, without a doubt.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 11: It's the impact that Jesus makes everywhere the Gospel is brought.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 11: And this is todd where your intersection of scholarship commentary
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 11: on culture. We all know that the Jesus movement is
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 11: the greatest force for good on planet Earth right now.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 11: And I could talk to you about all of the
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 11: intellectual reasons, and I paid all these archaeologists. There's so
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 11: many photographs in my book. I pride myself that my
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 11: nine year old son was reading the book to me,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 11: even though I'm a scholar. I write, as C. S.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 11: Lewis said, we should in the cultural vernacular and the
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 11: understandable language. And I think what is an the best
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 11: apologetic of Christianity right now and why young men are
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 11: coming back to the church is everywhere the Gospel goes,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 11: humans are rehumanized. The Christian worldview is the X factor
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 11: that builds the dominant themes, the building blocks, the amenities
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 11: that the freedoms that you and I enjoy. Those don't
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 11: come from Marxism, they don't come from socialism, they don't
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 11: come from atheism or agnosticism. They come from one worldview.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 11: The Biblical Judaeo Christian worldview. And that's really the one
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 11: thing that the book drives at is because you know,
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 11: you can know about these discoveries, and you should. Believers
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 11: do need to know about that. We should talk about
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 11: how so many believers go to AI or Google instead
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 11: of God's word. I want Christians to up their intellectual game.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 11: But the payoff of the book, and the payoff more
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 11: so is when you realize that Jesus rose from the grave,
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 11: you're going to live every day with a living hope.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 11: That's first Peter one to three, and then guess what
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 11: Romans sixteen to one. There's an argument after Paul goes
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 11: off on fifty eight verses on the Resurrection, he says,
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 11: guess what we've got to take an offering. People are suffering.
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 11: So there's an argument in my book that goes directly
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 11: from knowing these things to the our argument for Christian
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 11: ethics to make a difference in the world. And that's
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 11: what Christianity, that's where we really flex our muscles about
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 11: how we take care of the poor, the innocent, we
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 11: love people, we pray for our enemies, we love our enemies.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 11: That is a message that we need today now more
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 11: than ever.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 4: I have two other questions for it. We're going to
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 4: get you back on because there's so much more we
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: need to do a deep dive in. But I do
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: have a couple of questions. You're at the World Economic
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 4: Forum at Davos. Did you stay at the Hampton End,
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 4: you know, because of the free breakfast or I'm just curious.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 11: You know what, even the Hampton End would be sixty
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 11: thousand a night. That was I It's ridiculous. So next
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 11: year I will be closer to mister Strombach and his compound.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 11: But I actually didn't know what to expect, and I
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 11: had security with me, and we decided it was best
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 11: to just take the train in and out every day
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 11: from Zurich. So it was a beautiful two hour train
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 11: ride to kind of decompare them. Actually a lot of
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 11: great conversations, so you can actually stay in Zurich. So
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 11: how do you just need to come with me in
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 11: January and speak faith.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 3: For him with me?
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 4: Now I am there? Invitation accepted. Final final thought. I
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 4: just want to throw this out there next book The
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 4: Master's Discoveries. I'm trying to figure out how so many
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 4: pastors get those exclusive tickets to the Masters at Augusta.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 12: Ashrall am too.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 6: I am too.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 11: You know they must know someone I don't know. I
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 11: just I was preaching serving the Lord that weekend. And
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 11: all I know is there is no risk cars anywhere
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 11: in Georgia because I was in Georgia with my tour.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 4: None whatsoever. All right, Doctor Johnston, Congratulations on the new book. Folks,
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 4: get a copy of it, The Jesus Discoveries. We're gonna
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 4: get you back on a soon. But congratulations again on
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 4: the great success.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 11: Thanks for your support, Todd, keep going, man, you're all home, all.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 4: Right, there you go, everybody, Jeremiah Johnson. What a great
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 4: church by im Prestonwood Baptist Church. If you're in the
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: Dallas Metroplex, you got to go buy and check them out.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 4: Got to take a break. We'll be right back, all right.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: President Trump now warning that the bombs are going to
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 4: fall if Iran does not agree to a permanent ceasefire.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 4: The President saying, bomb start going off once the ceasefire
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 4: expires on Tuesday. Here's the question should the president. Should
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 4: the President call it a day and go ahead once
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 4: the ceasefire is over and start the bombing, or do
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 4: we try to work out another ceasefire. The President making
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 4: a statement during an interview with PBS News and he
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 4: was asked, what will happen if the deadline has reached
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 4: Tuesday without a peace deal. He said, then the bombs,
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: lots of bombs start going off. When asked about the
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 4: status of the peace talks in Pakistan, he said, I
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 4: simply don't know. We shall see, We shall see, ladies
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: and gentlemen. By the way, the President Alay says Israel
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: did not talk him into the Iran war.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 4: This is the Todd Strange Radio Show.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: By from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 3: That's the American.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: To start Monday.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 4: Well, hello, everybody, welcome to our three of the Big Show.

• 1:16:00
  Speaker 4: nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 4: and last half hour of the show. We were so
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 4: honored to have our good friend, doctor Jeremiah Johnston with us.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 4: Has a brand new book out New York Times bestseller
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 4: number three. Two weeks in a row called the Jesus Discoveries,
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 4: and a lot of people are just they have a
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 4: lot of questions. There's a lot of anxiety in the
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: world right now, and people are returning to the church.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 4: The question is what are they going to find when
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 4: they go back to that church. And you need to
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 4: make sure you're going to a Bible believing church and
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 4: not one of these woke churches that's got some I
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 4: don't know, some chick with purple hair singing about rainbows
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 4: from the pulpit. So you got to make sure you're
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: going to a good church. I want to go to
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 4: the phone lines here. Chris from Asheville, North Carolina, listening
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 4: to us on WHKP, was listening to that conversation. Hi Chris,
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 4: what's on your mind?
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 7: Hey Tod, how are you doing.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 4: I'm good, Thank you for asking.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 7: God always leaves me in the right direction. I don't
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 7: listen to you every day, and I got errands to
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 7: run and stuff, and I don't like to be distracted.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 7: But it was a good thing for me to tune
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 7: in to Jeremiah Johnson. I was tickled to death.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 6: And I can.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 7: Tell you about an experience I had. I had a
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 7: woman at work that had been talking to me and
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 7: questioning me about my belief and the church.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 4: I was going to Chris, can I ask you to
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 4: do me a favorite. Do you have the radio on
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 4: in the background. Yeah, If you don't like, just turn
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 4: that off.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 4: So we get a little bit of a feedback by apologies,
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 4: but go ahead and no, no, no, you're good, you're good,
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 4: Go ahead and finish your story.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 7: We were talking and I was answering her questions, and
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 7: this other lady walked up and she goes, I don't
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 7: think you should be talking about that at work. And
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 7: I raised my hand in the air and I said,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 7: I do. I think I should be shouting it from
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 7: the rooftops. And she walked away. And now I have
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 7: had another experience a new friend. She's not the same
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 7: color as I, but she we were talking about something
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 7: and she said, you know that Jesus and God did
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 7: not really exist. It's just a myth. I said, well,
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 7: you know what. I'm sorry. I don't agree with you,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 7: so we have to have another conversation about that. What
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 7: do you think I should do? Should I bring it
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 7: up again or do I try to convince her? Or
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 7: what is your advice?
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 4: Sure, well, pardon me, and this is all happening on
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 4: the work site.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 7: No, this new friend was just an acquaintance that I
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 7: recently meant.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 4: Well, I think that, look, I think one of the
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 4: one of the unique things I'm I'm not a big
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 4: I know a lot of people are like door knockers.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 4: You know, they go knocking on the doors and you
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 4: know they're sharing the gospel. For me, I'm more of
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 4: a you know, I want to know the person and
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 4: get to know them and then you know, organically have
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 4: that conversation happen. And I don't think there's a right
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 4: way or a wrong way. It's just you know, that's
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 4: how That's how I'm built. You know, I would I
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 4: would just ask that person, you know, what is it?
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: You know, if they're skeptical about about Christianity, I'd ask,
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 4: you know, what what is their skepticism? You know, where
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 4: do they you know, what issues do they have a
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 4: challenge with and then try to walk them through that.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 4: You know, a book like you know, doctor Johnston's The
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 4: Jesus Discoveries, I think could also help you because it
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 4: might be able to I think the book probably answers
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 4: a lot of the questions you know that, you know,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: perhaps the skeptic, a non Christian might have.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I got to buy a couple of those books.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely. Well be sure to buy one of mine too.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 7: But you know, oh, yes, I have everyone that you
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 7: have written. It's uh something off the subject. Yes, we're
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 7: always talking about doctor pepper and how you love it,
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 7: love it. Yes, So I finally bought me. I'm just
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 7: a small bottle, twenty ounces, and I read the label.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 7: Calories two hundred and forty calories, sodium ninety five miligrams,
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 7: total carbs sixty six total sugar sixty five added sugars

  Speaker 4: You active. This is a bad thing.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah, those are all bad things. High fructose corn sewrup.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 7: I don't know. I guess, I guess I can't convince
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 7: you that, you know, doctor pepper isn't really good.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 4: For you, Chris. I go back to the sweet, precious
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 4: lady who was like a what one hundred and one
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 4: years old, and they interviewed her and said what's the secret,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 4: what's the secret, And she said she drank three doctor
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 4: peppers a day. And the reporter said, well, your doctors
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 4: didn't they tell you that was bad for you. And
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 4: she said absolutely, and they're all dead and I'm still here.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 7: That's too funny, I mean, not really funny.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, no, But so you gotta you gotta have
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 4: a little bit. You have to have at least one
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 4: vice in your life.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah right. I don't smoke, I don't drink, so I
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 7: guess I can have a doctor bimber exactly. I watched
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 7: the podcast with a little lady that was one hundred
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 7: and three years old. She said she ate three eggs
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 7: for breakfast. She ate the same thing every day.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 6: And for lunch she.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 7: Had two burgers, raw meat. I mean, you know, she
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 7: made her own burgers. She didn't do fast food.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 4: And for soccer they were raw wait wait wait wait
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 4: wait wait wait she ate raw hamburgers. No, she cooked them. Okay,
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: I see so she cooked them at home. Okay, all right.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 4: And how many potatoes for dinner?
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 3: She said five?
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 7: I eat potatoes. One potato is nothing. I love baked potatoes.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 4: Oh that's a lot of potato. That is a lot
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 4: of starch. So you know, you know, it's interesting when
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 4: you look at what our grandparents and great grandparents used
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 4: to eat. And I remember my my grandfather used to
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 4: say that back in the Great Depression, you know, they
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 4: would go to school and they wouldn't necessarily have a
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 4: lot of food, so they would go to school with
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 4: a pail of bacon, grease, and bread and that would
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 4: be there. That would be their lunch. Oh wow, And
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 4: everybody seemed to you know, everybody seemed to do just fine.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 4: It's but now, you know, with all the organic smoothies
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: and whatnot, so people are eating avocado toast out the wazoo.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 7: Fine, avocados are good for you. AVOs are that are
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 7: for you than doctor Pepper.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 4: Well there you go, all right, Chris, I raise a
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 4: doctor Pepper in your honor.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm holding my bottle that has about a teaspoon
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 7: left in it. I did drink the whole thing other
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 7: than a teasoon.
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 4: You may as well. Absolutely, I'll tell.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 7: You it tastes better when it's warm and cold.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 4: So look, I am the one person in my entire church.
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 4: Our church does like we do the Living Bethlehem Village
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 4: at Christmas time, and it's an amazing thing. But one
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 4: of the things we have, and I don't think this
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 4: was actually the original Bethlehem Village was we have a
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 4: big cauldron that serves hot doctor pepper, and I just
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 4: people swear by it and I've had it, and I'm like,
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 4: it's just not for me. It's kind of like tea.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 4: I don't do the hot tea. I gotta have an
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 4: ice cold.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I like And people when they order a drink
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 7: at a fast food I always get it with no
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 7: ice because it comes out of the equipment cold.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 4: Let me ask you a question. I'm Chris. I got
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 4: to ask this. Are you a native Southerner or did
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 4: you move down here?
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 7: I got tim on my heels.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 4: Okay, I think that. I think I know what that
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 4: means an accent no, because most no, because a lot
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 4: of Northerners don't drink ice in their beverages. And here
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 4: in the South, we're all about the ice. Yeah, it's
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 4: it's a giveaway. It's a giveaway.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 4: That and people who say you all so, but we
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 4: give you guys bonus points for a triumph.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 7: I say, y'all, Oh, that's good.

• 1:24:33
  Speaker 7: I know how to spell it to y A L L.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 4: That's it. And if there's more. And by the way,
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 4: it's y'all is plural, so it's not a singular. It's plural.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 4: But if there are a lot of people, it's all y'all. Oh, y'all, all, y'all.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 7: You say, you say a couple of funny things. You say,
• 1:24:54

  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm glad she did it. It seems like

  Speaker 5: this is our first one she's ever had, so welcome
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 5: to the family.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 4: I would just say, just and just think about this.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 4: And I don't want to cheer people down, you know,
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: I don't want to, you know, make people backslide. So
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 4: you know, I hate that you know, now she's consumed
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: a doctor Pepper.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 5: Well one, won't you know start the habit. You know,
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 5: he's it takes a few to start.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 4: That, but it's but you know, it's a slippery slope.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 4: You're starting with one and the next thing you know,
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 4: you got a sick pack to doctor Pepper and you're
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 4: off the wagon.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 5: And now they have all these different flavors and stuff.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 5: It's very dangerous.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 4: Well exactly, all right, let's go to Mark in Gainesville, Georgia,

  Speaker 13: spell it wrong.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 4: Wait did she stop? It's why apostrophe?
• 1:26:37

• 1:27:11
  Speaker 13: I've been been in Georgia my entire life, lived.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 4: Here and now, Mark, let me tell you if you

• 1:27:43
  Speaker 13: that they got bowl peanuts that in and backwards every time.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 4: Well that's a fair point. By the way, there is
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 4: really nothing better than a Coca Cola and some boiled peanuts.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 13: Man, God, you ain't kids, You're an kid.

• 1:28:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that'll be gone for the next twenty minutes.
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right exactly. And I hate the ones that

• 1:29:05
  Speaker 4: started turning off their phones and they don't have any computers,

  Speaker 4: no technology in their bedroom because they said that it's
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 4: you know, you get a better sleep if you don't
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 4: have any of the electronics in there.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 5: That would be a great idea. Unfortunately I don't do that.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 5: I'm actually the opposite. I fall asleep on my phone,
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 5: literally on your phone. Sometimes I'll fall asleep to a
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 5: podcast or a YouTube video. I am, Yeah, I need
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 5: to start reading at bed.

• 1:29:34
  Speaker 4: and I'm like a chapter in and I'm gone.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 5: See, I'm gonna try it. It's probably helpful, but I
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 5: just can't you enjoy it. I like my phone too much.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 5: I'm a gen zer. What can I say.

  Speaker 4: We have a great pest control James Past James Pest Management.
• 1:30:26

  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but who goes to sleep with tree frog noise?
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 3: Who does?
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 5: That shouldn't even be a setting.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 4: No, it would be like the cicados.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 5: Do you imagine that's what someone falls asleep too. That's
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 5: that's the most noise unbelievable. It's like somebody had a songbird,
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 5: you know. I tried the songbirds and I'm like, shut up,
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 5: just stop it. It can't be an annoying sound like

  Speaker 5: that just can't be what it is.
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 6: True.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 4: So we've apparently now have we have somehow stumbled upon

  Speaker 4: a national conversation about the correct usage of the word. Y'all,
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 4: let's go to Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Kto un are great affiliate there.
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 4: Bill is on the line, Bill, how are things in Bartlesville.

  Speaker 12: this town in the fifties and sixties. I'm an old
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 12: dude anyway, I just want to give a shout out. Actually,
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 12: I'm listening to the Mighty sixth ninety out of Coffeevil
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 12: of Kansas. But KWN is the local station here. But
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 12: they're all good. They're all good. In Oklahoma, everything's wonderful today.
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 12: It's a clear day, seventy three degrees with.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 6: The whole white breeze blowing.

  Speaker 12: Oh that's loved anyway. But y'all, yes, in Oklahoma anyway,
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 12: it's singular or plural. Y'all just covers everything. Anybody that
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 12: you're talking to, y'all. My wife has a catering business
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 12: and I do the bars, and my conversation always starts
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 12: with where y'all from, because Oklahoma is a destination. By
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 12: the way, Tulsa is a destination wedding place because it's
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 12: centrally located and we have tons of beautiful venues here,
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 12: so that oh yeah, oh yeah, plus architecture. When I
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 12: asked the people when they come here, I said, what
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 12: are you interested in? If you're interested in architecture, we
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 12: have here in Bartlesville the only skyscraper that Frank Lloyd
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 12: Wright built. It's called the Price Tower. It's magnificent. We
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 12: have several Frank Lloyd ride homes in this area because
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 12: Oklahoma is very wealthy back in the day. Anyway, we
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 12: have architecture, art, a Western art, and a wool Rock
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 12: museum out here outside Bartlesville. Frank Phillips built it. It's
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 12: got magnificent. In fact, if you look at most of
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 12: the Western art, it'll be credited to Bartlesville, Oklahoma. If
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 12: you're interested in gun collection, the largest private cult collection,
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 12: experimental arms and everything else is there at that will
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 12: Rock Museum. Anyway, one other quickly for a plug for Oklahoma.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 12: Kevin O'Leary, the mister wonderful guy, mister wonderful. Yeah, where
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 12: he's investing his money. Well, Oklahoma is one of the
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 12: five states that he listed because it's cost of living.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 12: But we're coming on and we also have another. The
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 12: number one tourist attraction last year was a gathering place
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 12: in Tulusa, Oklahoma, which is funded by private philanthropic works
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 12: here in Tulsa.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 4: Bill, you could be like the head of the Chamber
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 4: of Commerce and the Department of Tourism for Oklahoma. Well done, sir,
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 4: and I want you to give us a holler back.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 4: The computer is going to cut us off here in
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 4: a minute, but God bless him for calling in and
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 4: thanks for the So Bill says, y'all can be plural
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 4: and singular, and Bill of course giving us the all right,
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 4: welcome back everybody. This is the top Starge radio show.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: So Ram Emmanuel was on Bill Maher's show the other
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 4: night and really took a two by four to his
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 4: own party. This is the second or third time he's
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 4: done this over the past couple of months. Take a listen,
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 4: We're let me see this.
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 14: The Democratic Party taking twenty twenty four, going back to
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 14: twenty twenty invited a bunch of culture wars into our kids' schools,
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 14: and we lost that war. I mean here in California,
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 14: up in San Francisco, they were arguing and voted to
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 14: take Abraham Lincoln's name off of a high school, not
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 14: whether they were worried about whether the kids know why
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 14: Abraham Lincoln was such an icon in the school was
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 14: named after him. They lost the plot. They totally lost
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 14: the plot, and they lost the American people in that plot.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 14: And when you're gonna make a mistake, I'm gonna call
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 14: it out. Your consequence for the Cultural Awards was a mistake.
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 14: One thing the American people want from us is when
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 14: their backs are up.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 4: Against the wall.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 14: They want us to show up and help them. Not
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 14: argue about latinex as a term, not argue about defunding
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 14: the police are in some situations, or more importantly, letting
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 14: the border get.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 4: Out of control.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 14: We actually have to show respect for the American people
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 14: of their primary concerns and help them. As they jokingly say,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 14: you know, they weren't very good in the family room,
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 14: not very good in the kitchen.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 7: And the only room we were good.
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 4: In was the bathroom.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 14: It's the smallest room in the house.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 4: It's nuts right, all right, there you go. That was
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 4: Rom Emmanuel, who was the former former chief of staff
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 4: for President Barack Hussein Obama. I want to go to
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 4: the Patriot Oble newsmaker line. Say hello to our good friend.
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 4: He's the publisher of try Star Daily dot com. Steve Gill. Steve,
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 4: good to have you with us. What do you make
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 4: of what Rob Emmanuel had to say there?
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a rare first Tom sist. But as they say,
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 6: even a broken clock is right place today. And when
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 6: you look at where we're seeing the Democrats move in
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 6: their primaries around this country, they're moving further and further
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 6: to the left, to cater to that far left wing,
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 6: which I think may be good for Republicans in the
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 6: fall if they go as far off the deep end
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 6: as it appears in many of these congressional races and
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 6: US Senate races, that that moderate middle may reject the
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 6: insanity that Democrats are moving to in so many of
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 6: these races. So it's good to hear what Rob Emanuel says,
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 6: But his party is not listening.
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 4: No, not at all. I mean, they're nowhere near that.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 4: And again he almost had you almost caught a whiff
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 4: of the old blue dog Democrats. Those used to be
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 4: really a conservative coalition of Democrats, going all the way
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 4: back to we're going to go old school here, Steve
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 4: gil remember Zell Miller, the former governor of Georgia Democrat
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 4: who infamously said that he didn't leave the Democrat Party,
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 4: the Democrat Party left him and went on to become
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 4: a supporter of Georgia W. Bush. Those guys are pretty
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 4: almost like extinct, like the dinosaurs. But I mean it
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 4: certainly sounds like Rob Emmanuel at the end of the
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 4: day is more pragmatic about Democrat politics.
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but I would say Park is chief and what
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 6: we're seeing from Democrats around the country time is they
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 6: have figured out they can't reveal who they are or
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 6: election day. So you look at Abigail Stamberger, Yeah, Virginia,
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 6: what she talks about before the election is nowhere near
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 6: what she's doing now in Virginia, there is you know,
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 6: one hundred and eighty degrees from what she said. You
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 6: see the same thing with you know, Governor Basharing in Kentucky. Oh,
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 6: he's talented as a moderist, but when you look at
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 6: what he actually does and what he actually puts into
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 6: place or tries to put into place in Kentucky, there's
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 6: nothing moderate about it. Same thing as you look at
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 6: Joshapiro in Pennsylvania. What they say to get elected is
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 6: decidedly different from what they will do when they get
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 6: in and they have to hold it, you know, feel
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 6: like they can pool the public to win because he
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 6: could not run honestly on what they are for and
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 6: what they will do where the voters will reject them.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 6: As we're I think increcently removed through the fall.
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 4: And look, I think that's a great point. You just
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 4: can't trust them, and you really can't. And I think
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 4: Abigail Spamberger is a great example of that. By the way,
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 4: I was really impressed to hear Jonathan Folwell, who is
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 4: the you know, his father founded Liberty University, and Jonathan
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 4: took over the pastor and at Thomas Road Baptist Church,
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 4: one of the largest churches in Virginia. And he actually
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 4: came out yesterday and this was from the church service.
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 4: And Steve is a little long, but I want you
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 4: to hear this because this is a good thing that
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 4: we are seeing happening in Virginia.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 10: Cut seven, Number one is this Tuesday is an election
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 10: day here in the Commonwealth of Virginia. It shouldn't be,
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 10: but it is, and we have an election coming up.
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 10: There's no body on the ballot. There are no individuals
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 10: running for any office. It is simply a decision that
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 10: was made by some people in Richmond to subvert the
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 10: common way and the right way to do things. And
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 10: so they put up a constitutional amendment. And the language
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 10: of the constitutional amendment just simply says this that they
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 10: want to restore fairness. Now here's their definition of restoring fairness.
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 10: What is in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Right now, there
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 10: are six seats held the Congressional districts that are held
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 10: by the more leaning part of our commonwealth, and there
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 10: are five seats that are held by the more conservative
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 10: leaning people in our commonwealth. And so their way to
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 10: restore fairness is to make it where there will be
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 10: ten leaning to the liberal and one leaning to the conservative, which,
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 10: by the way, I don't quite think the restore fairness
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 10: is exactly what they're trying to do. I think what
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 10: they're trying to do is to completely take over. Now
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 10: here's what I would say to you, and you know this.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 10: I want to make it very clear. I've never stood
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 10: on the stage and told you who to vote for.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 10: I've never told you an individual that you should vote
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 10: for or anything like that. I've never even told you
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 10: a party to vote for. I've told you to vote
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 10: your principles. I've told you to vote your values. I've
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 10: told you to vote what biblical values looks like and
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 10: to vote in that realm and in that sphere. And
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 10: today I'm going to do the exact same thing, but
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 10: it's a little bit different because today I know that
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 10: if you hold biblical values, if you believe in the
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 10: sanctity of life, if you believe in the right of
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 10: having this idea that there is man and woman period.
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 10: If you believe clearly in all the freedoms and the
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 10: values and the principles upon which this nation was founded,
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 10: there is only one way to vote on Tuesday, and
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 10: that is to vote no on Tuesday in the election. Now,
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 10: I know I will get some letters and I'll get
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 10: some emails. Some people will be mad by what I
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 10: just said.
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 4: I don't care, all right, I want to go Steve
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 4: gil pretty bold for a pastor to come out and
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 4: say something like that.
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 6: Well, and again, you know, you always have the threat
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 6: of churches, Oh we're going to take your nonprofit status
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 6: away if you if you preach politics from the bulpit,
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 6: And yet you see black churches for decades that will
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 6: bring in candidates to preach and and do politics from
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 6: the bulpit, and nothing ever happens in those cases. So
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 6: you know, I think it's bold, and at the same time,
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 6: I think he's taking the upper approach. Try me, come on,
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 6: bring it on, because they will not challenge that, particularly
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 6: when it is not artisan. It is simply speaking out
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 6: on an issue. And I think, again, you don't lose
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 6: your free speech rights. It's a pastor in front of
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 6: your in front of the congregations, and he, you know,
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 6: I think again underscores the unfairness of what we're seeing
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 6: play out in Virginia when again, Abigail Standberger spoke a
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 6: few years ago how she was adamantly opposed to gerrymandering
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 6: for political purposes, and now that is exactly what they're
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 6: trying to shove down the throats of Virginians with trickery
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 6: and deceit about fearness when it is the last thing
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 6: that is there, and that Kabala harrisonly carried about about
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 6: five percent of the vote. You know. The other the
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 6: other thing that pay attention to is that again all
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 6: these Democrats as we headed to the fall in Congress,
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 6: are going to be claiming to be something they're not.
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 6: They cannot run on who they are and what they're
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 6: for or they will lose. So they're all going to
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 6: moderate their films, They're all going to talk different than
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 6: what they have done. Because you've not seen any break
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 6: in the US House of Democrats stepping aside from their
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 6: party orthodoxy, whether it comes to you know, the the
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 6: you know, having men in women's locker rooms, having men
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 6: compete with women in sports, you know, defending and supporting
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 6: our troops in funding that, defending the homeland security folks
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 6: and the police officers on the streets. They are lockstep
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 6: one hundred percent on every eighty twenty issue against the
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 6: vast majority of the American people. Now they're all gonna
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 6: lie and try to deceive you again, which is now
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 6: in November. But look at how they voted complete box
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 6: step where the only thing they worship is not God
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 6: or Jesus, but it is Democratic Party orthodoxy. And that's it.
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 4: You know, it's funny here in Memphis. So we've got
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 4: election coming up, and to your point, the black churches
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 4: are have been weaponized for political purposes. And just yesterday
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 4: someone sent me some video one of the white Democrats.
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 4: She spoke at a black church and she got up
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 4: and you know what, the services are pretty, the music
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 4: is always really good. I enjoy the music. And so
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 4: she got up. Steve behind her, they have like this
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 4: huge digital screen that has her her campaign poster saying
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 4: vote for me. I mean, it's such a blatant violation
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 4: of the Johnson Amendment. And she's getting up there and
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 4: she's talking about how she's never shimmied, and she starts
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 4: wiggling the girls right there in front of God and
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 4: the parishioners there at the at the Baptist church. She
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 4: was at, I'm like, what the heck? But Steve, here's
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 4: the problem.
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 6: If they passed the plate for a tip jar hell
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 6: were they supposed to talk the twenties into her d
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 6: s three? How does that work at that church?
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 4: I'm like, all right, ma'am, all right, no jiggling for
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 4: Jesus up in here.
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 4: Here's what gets me, though, Steve, is that the white
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 4: churches here and I'm going to get in trouble, but
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 4: it needs to be said. The white churches in Memphis,
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 4: if they would just you know, talk about the issues
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 4: like doctor Folwell just preached about you know, he doesn't
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 4: you don't. You don't have to tell people who to
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: vote for, but you can talk about the issues. I
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 4: think that things would change in Memphis. But the white
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 4: churches have been conditioned to stay silent, and honestly, they're
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 4: just terrified about speaking out on the big issues.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 11: Years and years ago, I had the Reverend Jesse Jackson
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 11: on my radio show and I had seemed straight up.
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 11: I said, how is it that black churches can bring
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 11: politicians in to promote themselves and their candidacy and preach
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 11: politics from the pulpits. And yet you know, guess you're
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 11: one of the ones that will stream and holl If
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 11: a white church pastor suggests how people should vote on issues,
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 11: he goes, well, it's because it's it's part of our culture.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 11: The culture in the black community is the churches have
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 11: always led in politics and every other way.
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 6: So we get a special exhibition. So yeah, that's not
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 6: the law.
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it's not the law. But but again they
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 4: turn a blind eye. I guarantee you if if there
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 4: have been a Republican candidate going to a predominantly white
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 4: church and doing that sort of thing yesterday, there would
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 4: have already been a complaint filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 4: So but again it's you know, you've got up there.
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 4: There's one set of rules and then there's another set
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 4: of rules, and that's not.
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 6: Right, by the way. One one quick insight on on
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 6: Memphis politics. I know you you're national, but Memphis matters,
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 6: and you have a you have a congressional there. Speaking
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 6: of Jerry Vandering, it is a black created district by
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 6: Voting Rights Act. To this court, may wipe this out,
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 6: and it may change things down the road. I don't
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 6: think Tennessee can jerry manders quick enough, even if the
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 6: Supreme Court wipes away the required racial districts in the
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 6: next few weeks. But you have a black created district
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 6: where a white liberal, Steve Cohen has been the congressman
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 6: for years. He is now being challenged by a young
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 6: African American who was part of the Tennessee three rabble rousers.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 6: Has two million dollars cash on hand, justin Pearson has
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 6: about three hundred thousand. But money isn't going to matter
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 6: in that race. It's going to be the racial divide.
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 6: And Cohen has been elected over and over again, as
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 6: I know you've seen, because three or four Black Jetters
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 6: will run against him, they divide the black vote and
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 6: he gets back in. That may not happen this time,
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 6: even though he has two million dollars and it's disposed well.
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 4: It's just again another example of the radicalization and of
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 4: how radical the Democrat Party's about to become, where Steve
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 4: Cohen is not liberal enough for the district. At least
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 4: that's the charge being levied Steve. We got to leave
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 4: it there, try star Daily dot com is the website
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 4: that's Trystardaily dot com. Always good hearing from you, my friend.
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 6: Do you soon? Thank you?
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 4: All right? There you go real quick before we go
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 4: to the go to a break here, Maria from Hendersonville,
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 4: North Carolina, WHKP been holding on was the weigh in
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 4: on Ram Emmanuel. Hi, Maria, what you got for us?
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 7: Hi?

  Speaker 2: Good?
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 15: I just wanted to say that Ramamanual might be your
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 15: traditional Democrat, but two words, Abigail Spanberger. They put themselves
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 15: out there as monitors, but if they are elected, that
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 15: is not the way they will govern, not at all.
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 15: And regarding the Black Church, the Black Church is struggling
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 15: because they have lost black men with all this nonsense
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 15: that these politicians and Democrat politicians and welcome preachers have
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 15: brought it to the church. So there's nothing in the
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 15: Black church anymore except for the women. They have lost
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 15: their strength and their influence among black men. So don't
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 15: fall for it the Baden switch, America. Do not fall
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 15: for the Democrat Baiden switch. They're not moderate. If you
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 15: vote for them, they will not govern moderately.
• 1:48:35
