1:15

Speaker 7: Not what he wants to be, but is way grateful

Speaker 7: that is not who he used to be.
1:23
Speaker 3: Here all right, Welcome in, Kevin, o'kella, very glad to
1:29
Speaker 3: have you with us. We've got a very interesting kickoff
1:33
Speaker 3: to the brand New Week kind of the brand new
1:35
Speaker 3: part of the year was. I gotta tell you, I
1:38
Speaker 3: was so excited to aim the whole first half of
1:43
Speaker 3: the year at getting to July fourth in America two
1:46
Speaker 3: fifty and we did our big Times Square outdoor broadcast,
1:50
Speaker 3: and then we did the broadcast on Saturday. And I
1:53
Speaker 3: don't know if you got to hear me on RMW
1:57
Speaker 3: World Travel or rm World Travel.
2:00
Speaker 1: But the nation's largest travel show.
2:04
Speaker 3: But I was a guest host of Robert and Mary
2:06
Speaker 3: and RJ and Nick and the whole Carrie family who
2:09
Speaker 3: put that show together. And what a great time we had.
2:12
Speaker 3: Got to see the jets flying up and down the
2:15
Speaker 3: coast of the Hudson River in New York City, and
2:19
Speaker 3: then I got to see the boats coming in the
2:23
Speaker 3: ship's beautiful, beautiful tall ships. And they haven't left yet.
2:27
Speaker 3: We might, in fact, actually just take the family to
2:30
Speaker 3: go see him more up close, because we can do
2:32
Speaker 3: that for another few days before they leave. But having
2:35
Speaker 3: said all of that, what a great celebration of our
2:39
Speaker 3: nation's two hundred and fiftieth birthday. And I want to
2:41
Speaker 3: say thank you to every one of you that came
2:45
Speaker 3: out to a broadcast or said hi to me or
2:48
Speaker 3: dropped me emails or pictures of things you were doing, etc.
2:51
Speaker 3: It was just a great time. My email address if
2:55
Speaker 3: you want to, by the way, that Kevin Show at
2:57
Speaker 3: gmail dot com. That Kevin Show at gmail dot com.
3:00
Speaker 3: But long, long story short, the world didn't stop turning
3:05
Speaker 3: and the news didn't stop being made, and we still
3:09
Speaker 3: have a lot of things that we have to work through,
3:10
Speaker 3: which we're going to because I'm confident that now that
3:13
Speaker 3: we've we've launched the second half of two point fifty
3:17
Speaker 3: and we're into the back half of the year, that
3:19
Speaker 3: we're just gonna we're going to continue to try to
3:22
Speaker 3: make the world a better place. That's what America tries
3:25
Speaker 3: to do. That's what we hope to do at That
3:27
Speaker 3: Kevin Show. We put everything up at the website that
3:30
Speaker 3: Kevinshow dot com. None of it's behind to pay. Weall
3:32
Speaker 3: because why we want you to have access to it.
3:34
Speaker 3: We want you to use it for your advantages and
3:38
Speaker 3: to take advantage of the common sense that that you
3:44
Speaker 3: know is trying to be permeated from this show every
3:48
Speaker 3: single day. If you're if you're joining us late, you
3:51
Speaker 3: may you may just have realized that the US men's
3:57
Speaker 3: team is playing Belgium tonight for a spot in the
4:02
Speaker 3: round of eight, which would be the next round beyond
4:06
Speaker 3: this of the World Cup. And there were a lot
4:09
Speaker 3: of us last week that thought that the red card
4:12
Speaker 3: on full aerin begalin Belogan was just blooney, Blogan's red
4:20
Speaker 3: card Blooney, but it got overturned. And now you're going
4:25
Speaker 3: to have both clubs playing each other at full strength,
4:29
Speaker 3: and it should be an entertaining game tonight as we
4:33
Speaker 3: are all Team USA for the World Cup, and I
4:36
Speaker 3: hope that they do well. We will see from that
4:39
Speaker 3: point from this point forward. Some other things happened over
4:43
Speaker 3: the weekend. I guess in Iran they had a state
4:47
Speaker 3: funeral for the dead comane who has been evidently kept
4:53
Speaker 3: on ice all this time, trying to, you know, avoid
5:00
Speaker 3: aid the deterioration of his body. I don't know how
5:04
Speaker 3: that works. In Islam, there's there's rules that say you
5:08
Speaker 3: can't you can't preserve the body. The body's supposed to
5:10
Speaker 3: be buried within X number of hours. They certainly didn't
5:13
Speaker 3: do that, so I don't know. Is it serious. Does
5:18
Speaker 3: it inspire the Uranian people to ignore the regime that
5:23
Speaker 3: has punished them and brutally treated them for the last
5:28
Speaker 3: fifty years the way they have I don't think so.
5:31
Speaker 3: But that's that happened over the weekend. And we've got
5:35
Speaker 3: a lot to talk about on today's show because today
5:37
Speaker 3: is Money Monday. We try to help you address, you know,
5:43
Speaker 3: money and investing in legacy and stewardship once a week
5:47
Speaker 3: and lou Bassinice and Hillary Kramer are going to be
5:50
Speaker 3: with us today to take on that topic, and both
5:53
Speaker 3: of them have some thoughts about the selloff on Thursday's
5:57
Speaker 3: round of Chips getting sold. I want to have some
6:00
Speaker 3: conservative plays and I want to have some hedge so
6:03
Speaker 3: that I don't, you know, risk too much, et cetera.
6:06
Speaker 3: And so one of the ways she does that is
6:08
Speaker 3: by encouraging people to look at stocks that have dividend
6:14
Speaker 3: yields in them is which is in essence the same
6:18
Speaker 3: thing as an interest rate on a savings account or
6:23
Speaker 3: a CD or something you might do through the bank.
6:25
Speaker 3: But the problem is most of your banks are under
6:28
Speaker 3: three percent, I think on savings programs, and if you
6:31
Speaker 3: get like a really aggressive one at maybe three and
6:33
Speaker 3: a half or maybe four percent, well in some companies
6:37
Speaker 3: that are fairly financially sound. They sometimes can be double that.
6:43
Speaker 3: So she's got ten stocks for us today that will pay.
6:49
Speaker 3: I believe everybody on the list pays three percent or
6:52
Speaker 3: more all the way up to seven percent, maybe above
6:56
Speaker 3: seven percent on the dividend yield. And one of them
6:59
Speaker 3: in Pertwentar, calculates your dividend weekly and pays you, pays
7:05
Speaker 3: you weekly or monthly, where it's a lot of companies
7:08
Speaker 3: you only get it quarterly. But she's got she's got
7:11
Speaker 3: a list of good things for us there. And then
7:13
Speaker 3: Lou has his own kind of goodies list. Today he's
7:16
Speaker 3: going to talk to us about some AI options that
7:19
Speaker 3: aren't titled in Vidia, and Vidia is really hard to
7:22
Speaker 3: get into. The price per share is really high, and
7:27
Speaker 3: maybe you want to take advantage of the fury around
7:31
Speaker 3: the AI activity and benefit from that financially, but you
7:36
Speaker 3: don't have that level of investment capability. Well, what are
7:41
Speaker 3: ten other AI plays that are more economically priced but
7:45
Speaker 3: that have in Lou's opinion, a bona fide upside in
7:50
Speaker 3: the weeks and months to come. Well, we'll get to
7:52
Speaker 3: that with Lou Bassinice this hour and Hillarruby with us
7:56
Speaker 3: in the second hour, So looking forward to all of that. Now,
8:03
Speaker 3: we got some other things to talk about today, and
8:05
Speaker 3: I just want to relay something that was really personally
8:09
Speaker 3: moving to me.
8:09
Speaker 1: We're going to start a new series.
8:10
Speaker 3: By the way, how do We Live. We've got Pastor
8:16
Speaker 3: Grossi joining us from the Commonwealth Bible Church in the Bronx,
8:22
Speaker 3: which is a great little church, and doctor Joel is
8:25
Speaker 3: just a really good guy. And then later in hour
8:29
Speaker 3: two something we don't normally do, we're going to talk
8:31
Speaker 3: to another pastor and we're going to go deep on
8:34
Speaker 3: the Book of Judges. When is the last time you
8:37
Speaker 3: were around anybody that even referenced the Book of Judges,
8:41
Speaker 3: much less taught on it. Well, it's a very applicable
8:47
Speaker 3: piece of scripture if you're talking about living in the
8:50
Speaker 3: world we live in right now, dealing with the stuff
8:53
Speaker 3: that we're dealing with right now, because the people of Israel,
8:58
Speaker 3: the children of Israel, were such a hot mess in
9:01
Speaker 3: the time of the Book of Judges, and yet it
9:04
Speaker 3: mirrors largely what we're dealing with right now. So I
9:10
Speaker 3: was able to be in attendance at his services yesterday.
9:13
Speaker 3: But Ryan batesl from Emergence Church is going to join
9:16
Speaker 3: us just as kind of a freelance discussion of the
9:19
Speaker 3: Book of Judges and why it matters, and if you're
9:22
Speaker 3: not a Bible person, don't think this is boring. Judges
9:27
Speaker 3: is an R rated movie that gets worse as it
9:29
Speaker 3: goes along, Like it starts at level one crazy and
9:33
Speaker 3: goes to level five by the end of it. I
9:36
Speaker 3: was truly amazed at how applicable some of this stuff is.
9:40
Speaker 3: And we'll talk with Ryan in the second hour, and
9:42
Speaker 3: so I hope you'll stick around. That's it as we
9:45
Speaker 3: kick off a brand new week of that Kevin Show.
9:47
Speaker 3: Everything from the show at that Kevinshow dot com, and
9:50
Speaker 3: I hope that you'll go check it out. Coming right
9:53
Speaker 3: back with a brand new week of How Do We Live?
9:54
Speaker 5: Stay here Here?
10:12
Speaker 2: He is from New York exactly, Ken, Kevin McCullough.
10:22
Speaker 3: All right, welcome, it's Kevin McCullough. Glad you're with us.
10:25
Speaker 3: A very interesting Monday straight ahead of us. After super
10:29
Speaker 3: super hot heat over the weekend, we got this rainy
10:32
Speaker 3: start to the week here in the Tri state area.
10:34
Speaker 3: I hope that you're doing well wherever you are, from
10:38
Speaker 3: San Diego to bangor Maine, anywhere in between, thank you
10:41
Speaker 3: for being with us.
10:42
Speaker 1: We're grateful for it.
10:44
Speaker 3: Everything's at that kevinshow dot com. By the way, we
10:46
Speaker 3: never put anything behind a paywall there because we always
10:48
Speaker 3: want you to have access to it. And this is
10:50
Speaker 3: the part of the show each day where we say
10:53
Speaker 3: how do we live? You know that if you've listened
10:54
Speaker 3: to me for any length of time, I say this
10:57
Speaker 3: all the time. We don't ask the big question enough.
11:01
Speaker 3: Who am I? Why am I here? Why did God
11:03
Speaker 3: create me? What is my purpose in being here? And
11:06
Speaker 3: how do we live in the midst of being in
11:09
Speaker 3: a culture that may despise God, may hate his word,
11:13
Speaker 3: may look at us quite suspicious if we say anything
11:16
Speaker 3: positive about either, Well, that's the hand we've been dealt.
11:19
Speaker 3: So how do we live in the midst of that?
11:21
Speaker 3: I would argue we don't. Our mission doesn't change, but
11:25
Speaker 3: doing it with wisdom is I think wise. So we
11:29
Speaker 3: ask a different shepherd to join us each week to
11:32
Speaker 3: break down some passages and to.
11:33
Speaker 1: Help us do just that.
11:35
Speaker 3: And Pastor Joel Grossi is back with us from Commonwealth
11:38
Speaker 3: Baptist Church. He was with us in twenty twenty five.
11:40
Speaker 3: And doctor Joel, it's good to have you back our nation.
11:46
Speaker 3: You know, coming off of two fifty, we have a
11:49
Speaker 3: lot going on in the world around us, and I
11:53
Speaker 3: think we play an outsized role of importance. The Church
11:57
Speaker 3: meaning plays an outsized role of importance in that we
12:00
Speaker 3: are we are the community that's actually charged with making
12:04
Speaker 3: a difference. We're supposed to have impact on the world
12:07
Speaker 3: around us. And this week we're going to look at
12:10
Speaker 3: a different way to do that. We're gonna look at
12:12
Speaker 3: Matthew chapter eleven. What's going on there? What's the context?
12:16
Speaker 3: Welcome back?
12:17
Speaker 8: Hey, thanks so much, Kevin really appreciate it. And yeah,
12:20
Speaker 8: I think Matthew eleven is a key passage because this
12:24
Speaker 8: is where the Lord Jesus really kind of reminds the
12:27
Speaker 8: disciples about the calling that they have to really, as
12:32
Speaker 8: you were just saying, make such.
12:33
Speaker 6: An impact on the world around us.
12:37
Speaker 8: And you've got the context of John the Baptist there
12:41
Speaker 8: and his disciples are talking with the Lord and his disciples,
12:44
Speaker 8: and he reminds his disciples, you know, remind John about
12:49
Speaker 8: all the all the miracles that you've seen me do.
12:52
Speaker 8: The blind receive their site, the lame or walking, the
12:55
Speaker 8: lepers are cleansed, the deaf here the debtor raised up,
12:59
Speaker 8: you know, really amazing, miraculous stuff. And the last thing
13:03
Speaker 8: he says is and the poor have the Gospel preach
13:06
Speaker 8: to them. And if you just picture, you know, this
13:10
Speaker 8: group of five people, and here's a guy who says,
13:14
Speaker 8: I used to be blind and now I see, And
13:16
Speaker 8: another one says, I used to be deaf and now
13:18
Speaker 8: I hear.
13:18
Speaker 6: And you're like, wow, that's amazing.
13:20
Speaker 8: And you get to the fifth guy and he says, yeah,
13:24
Speaker 8: I'm poor.
13:25
Speaker 6: But I had the Gospel preach to me.
13:28
Speaker 8: You see there that the emphasis here really is on
13:31
Speaker 8: the eternal and not all of us have the same
13:35
Speaker 8: economic standing.
13:37
Speaker 6: Not all of us have.
13:37
Speaker 8: A physical debilitation like is listed here, but all of
13:42
Speaker 8: us have this spiritual poverty that we need to come
13:46
Speaker 8: to God with and realize that we have nothing to
13:49
Speaker 8: offer him and that the Lord Jesus offers us all
13:52
Speaker 8: the riches of God's grace, and that has to be
13:54
Speaker 8: our eternal perspective as we go through this life.
13:57
Speaker 3: Hmmm, well, I know that in the New York trist
14:00
Speaker 3: State area where you and I reside, we know a
14:05
Speaker 3: couple of things. We know one that we have plenty
14:09
Speaker 3: of poor among us. We're never We're never short of
14:13
Speaker 3: having people that need help and that we can in
14:17
Speaker 3: fact impact. And at the same time, we also live
14:20
Speaker 3: in a society that's so frenetic that I think anybody
14:24
Speaker 3: that says, you know, I can take the time to
14:27
Speaker 3: slow down and hear the gospel is is kind of
14:31
Speaker 3: an aberration, if you will. Why is it significant, first
14:35
Speaker 3: of all, that the Gospel is preached to the poor.
14:39
Speaker 3: Why does Jesus emphasize that here?
14:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, in ancient days and again I'm reading
14:44
Speaker 8: the same history books as anybody else, but the emphasis
14:47
Speaker 8: was was on those.
14:49
Speaker 6: Who who had a lot to offer.
14:51
Speaker 8: I mean a really religious, impressive leader like a Pharisee
14:56
Speaker 8: or Sadducey or you know, really well known religious person
15:00
Speaker 8: maybe like even Saul of Tarsus was, or you had
15:02
Speaker 8: to be one of these philosophers that like a Plato
15:06
Speaker 8: or Aristotle. I mean, that's who the world lifted up
15:09
Speaker 8: back then, the people that were impressive, the people that
15:12
Speaker 8: were really somebody special. And for the Son of God
15:16
Speaker 8: to be known for spending his time with the quote
15:19
Speaker 8: unquote nobody's I mean that just shows the difference between
15:23
Speaker 8: the Lord Jesus and maybe the things that we naturally
15:27
Speaker 8: put the emphasis on number one and the number two.
15:31
Speaker 8: Like you said, we're all impressed by the same thing.
15:34
Speaker 8: I mean, we all when you read First Corinthians, we
15:37
Speaker 8: all like bigger is better. We all think that, wow,
15:41
Speaker 8: the mighty, the noble, the ones that have it. And
15:45
Speaker 8: that goes against really where God has always put his emphasis.
15:50
Speaker 8: The King of kings is being born in a manger.
15:54
Speaker 8: The pillar and ground of the truth is not some
15:57
Speaker 8: amazing temple in Ephesis. It's this little congregation that Timothy
16:05
Speaker 8: is pastoring. God always has his eye on the little things,
16:09
Speaker 8: and that's where he's putting his truth. And I think
16:11
Speaker 8: that's where we've got to get back as a nation
16:13
Speaker 8: here and realize it's not in all of this obsession
16:18
Speaker 8: we have with how many followers am I having, or
16:21
Speaker 8: how many things do I have? Or what's my influence?
16:24
Speaker 8: It's about, hey, this is all going to be here temporarily.
16:27
Speaker 8: Am I investing in eternal things?
16:29
Speaker 3: That's a powerful thing, And obviously Jesus deals with in
16:36
Speaker 3: another passage, he deals with a rich, young ruler who
16:38
Speaker 3: comes to him and says, you know what must I
16:41
Speaker 3: do to be saved? And he tells him and.
16:45
Speaker 1: He can't do it.
16:46
Speaker 3: He walks away and he shakes his head. But Joel,
16:50
Speaker 3: does that mean that you cannot be wealthy in today's
16:55
Speaker 3: culture and honor God in what he is emphasizing here?
16:59
Speaker 6: You know, that's that's such a key question, Kevin.
17:01
Speaker 8: And obviously when we read the Bible, we see people
17:05
Speaker 8: of means. I mean, Abraham job Lydia is, you know,
17:11
Speaker 8: selling purple. I mean that kind of indicates that she
17:14
Speaker 8: probably has a client tele that is, you know, used
17:17
Speaker 8: to some of the finer things in life. The Bible
17:20
Speaker 8: warns us about the love of money and the deceitfulness
17:24
Speaker 8: of riches, and you don't have to have a lot
17:27
Speaker 8: of it to love it and to be deceived by it.
17:30
Speaker 6: You know, that's not saying money. Money is not the
17:34
Speaker 6: root of all evil.
17:34
Speaker 8: I think you know, John Lennon kind of misquoted it there.
17:37
Speaker 8: It's not that money is the root of all evil.
17:39
Speaker 8: It's the love of money. And we've all got to
17:42
Speaker 8: examine our hearts here and say, am I making an
17:45
Speaker 8: idol of the things I have even.
17:47
Speaker 6: If I don't have that much?
17:49
Speaker 8: But you're right about the rich young ruler, because that's
17:52
Speaker 8: the passage where the Lord brings up you know, the
17:55
Speaker 8: the camel through the eye of the needle and all that.
17:58
Speaker 8: I mean, there is danger in being so comfortable in
18:02
Speaker 8: this life that we maybe think we don't really need
18:05
Speaker 8: God well.
18:07
Speaker 3: And I think the rich young ruler and maybe many
18:12
Speaker 3: today struggle not so much with the wealth that they have,
18:19
Speaker 3: but rather putting it under the lordship of the God
18:23
Speaker 3: who helped them obtain it. And I think that that
18:28
Speaker 3: is a that is certainly you know, when we talk
18:31
Speaker 3: about the love of money, anything that comes sin is
18:35
Speaker 3: basically the de godding of God. Right, So anything that
18:38
Speaker 3: takes God's place in our heart, life, mind experience, that's
18:44
Speaker 3: where sin comes from. And I think for those that
18:50
Speaker 3: are wealthy, they've achieved great things, but they understand that
18:53
Speaker 3: it is something that God has done for them, you generally,
18:57
Speaker 3: and those people see a lot of generosity. You see
19:01
Speaker 3: a lot of returning of that to the Lord's work,
19:04
Speaker 3: to blessing people that don't have what they have. So
19:08
Speaker 3: it is it is an interesting kind of dilemma for
19:10
Speaker 3: those that are successful because look, I'm a dad.
19:14
Speaker 1: I want my.
19:14
Speaker 3: Kids to grow up and support their families well and
19:17
Speaker 3: be able to do the best they can so that
19:21
Speaker 3: they can in fact be kingdom shapers. But it's a
19:24
Speaker 3: guarding against that we have to watch even more carefully.
19:27
Speaker 8: Absolutely, And you know, even where we are here in
19:30
Speaker 8: the Bronx, I mean we're in one of the poorest
19:33
Speaker 8: zip codes in the nation.
19:34
Speaker 6: I mean, the poverty level here is thirty percent.
19:38
Speaker 8: And you think, boy, why are you majoring on this?
19:43
Speaker 8: It's because it's a hard issue, right, And you know
19:47
Speaker 8: it's easy for us to always look at the haves
19:50
Speaker 8: or look at the neighbors who are doing better than us,
19:52
Speaker 8: and think, boy, you know I don't have that problem.
19:56
Speaker 1: Why don't I get that? Yeah, exactly, why don't.
19:58
Speaker 6: I get that?
19:59
Speaker 8: Well, you know, God uses God uses money to teach
20:02
Speaker 8: us things, both the presence of it and the absence
20:04
Speaker 8: of it, and and the tenth commandment, you know, thou
20:07
Speaker 8: shalt not cove it. I mean that affects every one
20:11
Speaker 8: of us has to answer for that one wherever we are,
20:14
Speaker 8: and it's something that we need to continually go back
20:17
Speaker 8: to the Lord with and keep that perspective so we
20:20
Speaker 8: don't get you know, swept up in this world, which
20:24
Speaker 8: you know is all about you know, he who dies
20:27
Speaker 8: with the most toys wins right right, right.
20:29
Speaker 3: Well, doctor Joe Grossi, we've just barely scratched the surface.
20:32
Speaker 3: Commonwealth Baptist Church. The website is Commonwealth Bronxs dot org
20:36
Speaker 3: if you want to know more. Looking forward to a
20:38
Speaker 3: great week, very convicting week and hopefully God will do
20:42
Speaker 3: something with it.
20:43
Speaker 1: But thank you for spending some time with us.
20:45
Speaker 6: Thanks Kevin, appreciate it.
20:46
Speaker 1: Got it.
20:46
Speaker 3: Kevin McCullough coming back from New York.
20:48
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere.
20:50
Speaker 2: Let's stick around for more of that Kevin. Next here
21:12
Speaker 2: he is from New York. That Kevin Kevin McCullough.
21:19
Speaker 1: All right, welcome back.
21:20
Speaker 3: It is that Kevin show, that kevinshow dot com.
21:23
Speaker 1: And it is Monday.
21:25
Speaker 3: So we take a look at the markets, and we
21:27
Speaker 3: also take a look at your portfolio, and we try
21:29
Speaker 3: to do what we can to help you leave a
21:33
Speaker 3: legacy for those that God has put in your life
21:36
Speaker 3: and to be good stewards of that which He has
21:39
Speaker 3: blessed you with. And joining us once again is Lou Bassnice.
21:43
Speaker 3: The Big Skinny dot Com is where you find him,
21:46
Speaker 3: The Big Skinny dot com. And if you were watching
21:49
Speaker 3: I don't know Fox News on Friday afternoon last week,
21:55
Speaker 3: might have seen him there with the oh come on now,
21:59
Speaker 3: I'm drawing blank. It was Sandra and John Roberts. That's it,
22:03
Speaker 3: because you know what, John wasn't in DC, and it
22:06
Speaker 3: fooled me like he was. He was in New York.
22:08
Speaker 3: He's not normally in New York, so.
22:09
Speaker 6: It was it was crazy. He's so he's so famous
22:12
Speaker 6: you forgot about him.
22:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, don't tell him that. Both both of which
22:16
Speaker 3: are really good people. I love Sandra and John A
22:18
Speaker 3: man lou the just before the holiday weekend and everybody
22:23
Speaker 3: had been saying, chips, chips, chips, you know, the chip funds.
22:28
Speaker 3: We were talking about all this and then like what happened?
22:31
Speaker 3: It looked like they had a big sell off on
22:33
Speaker 3: Thursday last week.
22:35
Speaker 6: They did, And this is what I talked about.
22:36
Speaker 9: I think last time or two weeks ago, we had
22:38
Speaker 9: money Monday where they're just followed. All the prices of
22:41
Speaker 9: these chip stocks swing a lot and there's a lot
22:43
Speaker 9: of panic for no reason.
22:44
Speaker 6: We saw it Thursday and Friday.
22:45
Speaker 9: They were down about fifteen percent between the two days.
22:48
Speaker 9: But it's not different this time. We actually went through
22:51
Speaker 9: this at the beginning of June, in the beginning of May,
22:54
Speaker 9: We've had it before in April. So this is a
22:57
Speaker 9: very standard and albeit just a frustration to deal with
23:01
Speaker 9: when you invest in chip stocks. But the price is
23:03
Speaker 9: a swing, but it creates great opportunities for investors that
23:08
Speaker 9: might not own any of these names to get involved
23:10
Speaker 9: because you get a it's like going on sale, right,
23:13
Speaker 9: So you looked at a product that you saw it
23:14
Speaker 9: and then two days later it's fifteen percent off or
23:16
Speaker 9: maybe twenty percent off. And Warren Buffett has this great
23:19
Speaker 9: saying that Wall Street's the only place that when the
23:21
Speaker 9: product goes on sale, people run out.
23:22
Speaker 6: Of the store.
23:23
Speaker 9: I like to do the opposite, right when it goes
23:26
Speaker 9: on sale and you know you like it, you want to.
23:27
Speaker 6: Buy more of it.
23:28
Speaker 9: So that's I think the opportunity that presents us as
23:30
Speaker 9: we start off a new week.
23:31
Speaker 6: The chip sector we talked.
23:33
Speaker 3: About in all fairness, they're back today a little bit.
23:36
Speaker 3: I mean it's not like a huge recovery, but.
23:38
Speaker 9: It is up some Yeah, And my favorite way to
23:41
Speaker 9: play it is not try and pick the individual winners.
23:43
Speaker 9: So don't try and predict the horse that's going to
23:44
Speaker 9: win the Kentucky Derby. Just bet on the race happenings
23:47
Speaker 9: and you do that with the etfso x X it's
23:50
Speaker 9: the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. This is not personal investment advice,
23:54
Speaker 9: but definitely something to check out. It gives you ownership
23:56
Speaker 9: of the entire basket of semiconductor stocks. And when these
24:00
Speaker 9: pullbacks happen, these this ETF is typically up fifteen to
24:03
Speaker 9: twenty percent within another, you know, thirty to sixty days.
24:06
Speaker 9: So it's always as it served me well over time,
24:09
Speaker 9: I'll put it that.
24:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's very interesting, and it's gonna be one of
24:12
Speaker 3: those things where I mean, and you said this the
24:14
Speaker 3: last time you were with us, that sector you can
24:18
Speaker 3: you can you can hold on to it for a
24:21
Speaker 3: while because it's just done nothing but grow and the
24:24
Speaker 3: demand for those high performance chips is not diminishing.
24:30
Speaker 6: Exactly if you look.
24:31
Speaker 9: It's funny if you look at the year over year sales,
24:35
Speaker 9: like just units of chips that have been sold, there's
24:37
Speaker 9: only been two times in history where that you had
24:40
Speaker 9: a decline, and that's during the Great Financial Crisis and
24:42
Speaker 9: during COVID. So even if chip stock prices move, chip
24:47
Speaker 9: demand is just going up into the right because everything
24:49
Speaker 9: we do and have and interact with as chips in
24:51
Speaker 9: it nowadays, it's not just AI, it's everything.
24:54
Speaker 1: Yeah.
24:55
Speaker 3: Okay, So I'm driving to church on Sunday morning and
24:59
Speaker 3: my sixty year old because it was just the two
25:02
Speaker 3: of us, we had some people not feeling well that
25:04
Speaker 3: stayed home. But my sixteen year old, actually this was
25:07
Speaker 3: on the way home from church. He goes, Dad, is
25:09
Speaker 3: Elon musk a trillionaire today? I said, I don't remember
25:14
Speaker 3: where SpaceX ended, but if it's beyond a certain point,
25:16
Speaker 3: then yes he is. Well, what's the latest with that?
25:19
Speaker 1: Ibo?
25:20
Speaker 9: I think today it's said one hundred and sixty two
25:23
Speaker 9: dollars a year, so I think he is as long
25:25
Speaker 9: as it broke. One fifty is a trillionaire to either
25:27
Speaker 9: one fifty or one seventy. But he's close enough either way.
25:30
Speaker 9: We'll get it round up and then round up and
25:33
Speaker 9: he gets there.
25:33
Speaker 3: Then my sixteen year old goes, well, you know he
25:35
Speaker 3: can't just you know, barely straight by with the several
25:38
Speaker 3: billions he has beyond that. I said, yes, I understand,
25:42
Speaker 3: but you know, it's interesting because over the weekend a
25:44
Speaker 3: lot of people took a potshot at him. Mayor Zoron
25:47
Speaker 3: Mumdani implied that we needed to socialize everything in the
25:53
Speaker 3: city of New York because a trillionaire was hungry for more.
25:58
Speaker 3: And I know that Elon responded to him on social
26:01
Speaker 3: media basically saying, you've never built anything. But Elon has
26:05
Speaker 3: a point, Lou when he Elon Musk didn't sit in
26:09
Speaker 3: a castle and just have some sort of like helicopter
26:12
Speaker 3: dump a trillion dollars into an account, like, he built
26:16
Speaker 3: companies that made things. And I was talking to my
26:19
Speaker 3: son about it, and he goes, well, what's the secret.
26:21
Speaker 3: I said, Well, what Elon did is he he figured
26:24
Speaker 3: out how to do something that people were going to want,
26:28
Speaker 3: and then he just got it out there and then
26:31
Speaker 3: he began to refine. He didn't wait to get it
26:32
Speaker 3: done perfectly. He got it out there and he started
26:35
Speaker 3: refining it as it went. That's how Tesla came about.
26:37
Speaker 3: And it looks like he's doing the same thing with SpaceX.
26:40
Speaker 9: No he is, And I look, I was pre med
26:43
Speaker 9: and took a lot of science classes in undergrad and
26:45
Speaker 9: I can't remember whether it's the third or second law
26:48
Speaker 9: of thermone dynamics where energy can neither be created nor destroyed.
26:51
Speaker 9: And I bring it up because Mom, Donnie and his
26:54
Speaker 9: like think the same applies to wealth, that if it's
26:56
Speaker 9: if someone has it, they took it from someone else,
26:59
Speaker 9: and that's just not the case. America is the only
27:01
Speaker 9: country that has a history of you know, it's not
27:04
Speaker 9: a zero sum game. You can come up with something new,
27:07
Speaker 9: create a new venture, a new enterprise, a new product,
27:09
Speaker 9: and you can make money off of it.
27:11
Speaker 6: That is additive to society, not reductive.
27:14
Speaker 9: It doesn't take it from someone else for you to
27:16
Speaker 9: sell that product and make money from it.
27:18
Speaker 6: And I think that.
27:19
Speaker 9: Is the fatal flaw in this whole marketing plan for socialism.
27:23
Speaker 6: I mean, that's really what it is. It doesn't hold.
27:25
Speaker 6: I mean, it's.
27:26
Speaker 9: They carry it with the mantle of affordability, but it's
27:29
Speaker 9: really socialism and communism in the skies and it doesn't work. Unfortunately,
27:33
Speaker 9: not many people follow the good old Reagan advice to
27:35
Speaker 9: trust but verify. It feels like socialism should be good,
27:38
Speaker 9: so people believe it it is, and unfortunately we may
27:41
Speaker 9: have to face some of the consequences of that if
27:43
Speaker 9: it gets adopted too often here in major cities across
27:46
Speaker 9: the US.
27:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, hold on, we're gonna take a quick break.
27:49
Speaker 3: Got some extra innings with the Loo today because I
27:51
Speaker 3: want to talk about the ten AI plays that are
27:55
Speaker 3: not named in videos.
27:56
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere.
28:12
Speaker 10: Here.
28:12
Speaker 2: He is from New York. That Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
28:19
Speaker 5: Welcome back.
28:19
Speaker 3: It's that Kevin Show. And if you pop over to
28:22
Speaker 3: the Big Skinny dot com three odd words that sound
28:27
Speaker 3: great together, the Big Skinny dot Com, you will be
28:31
Speaker 3: introduced to the entire world that Lou Bassanie is curating
28:35
Speaker 3: over there for you to just understand a little bit
28:38
Speaker 3: more simply how to do investing. It's it's he tries
28:43
Speaker 3: to make it simple for those of us like me,
28:46
Speaker 3: the dumb guy that doesn't know very very well what
28:48
Speaker 3: I'm doing, but I want to understand it better. It's
28:50
Speaker 3: a great place to start, and he has a great
28:52
Speaker 3: offer right now where when you click on the site,
28:56
Speaker 3: you can actually just put your email in and he's
28:58
Speaker 3: going to send you a report that I think has
29:00
Speaker 3: a lot of value to it. It's ten plays on
29:03
Speaker 3: the AI space that do not include the word in video,
29:08
Speaker 3: which is the big, big, big five thousand pound elephant
29:11
Speaker 3: in the room. Well, this is this. These are ten
29:14
Speaker 3: other plays that you can make money with companies that
29:18
Speaker 3: are supplying AI needs on some level, but they're not
29:22
Speaker 3: named in video and lou. The idea behind this is
29:25
Speaker 3: very simple. You just there's a lot of wealth to
29:29
Speaker 3: spread in the AI space. There's a lot of development.
29:31
Speaker 3: Every app on my phone. I mean I get annoyed
29:35
Speaker 3: by it, you know, I click on Facebook. Would you
29:37
Speaker 3: like us to compose an AI post for you? No,
29:40
Speaker 3: please be quiet, leave me alone. But it is, it's
29:44
Speaker 3: every app on my phone. And the truth is that
29:47
Speaker 3: it's a huge industry and that we're going to be
29:50
Speaker 3: able to excel at it, but maybe profit from it
29:53
Speaker 3: and maybe help, you know, provide for our families from it.
29:55
Speaker 1: That's a bigger bonus.
29:57
Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly. And don't get too hard on yourself. You're
29:59
Speaker 9: not the dumb guy. You're the busy guy. And that's
30:01
Speaker 9: really what the big skinny is about. Is everyone's busy
30:04
Speaker 9: in their own careers and life and doesn't necessarily unless
30:07
Speaker 9: you come up in the investing world understand how to
30:09
Speaker 9: decipher it and find the ideas and opportunities that can
30:12
Speaker 9: make you and you gain wealth and increase it.
30:15
Speaker 6: So that's what we've done with this report.
30:17
Speaker 9: We think AI is going to be one of those
30:19
Speaker 9: history defining growth trends. But it's not going to be
30:22
Speaker 9: just contained to one or two stocks like the smartphone
30:25
Speaker 9: wars where with Apple and Alphabet or Google.
30:28
Speaker 6: It's going to spread out to a lot of names.
30:30
Speaker 6: You mentioned it.
30:30
Speaker 9: I mean, everywhere we turn, something's got AI attached to it.
30:33
Speaker 9: So we put together a list of the top ten
30:35
Speaker 9: AI stocks not named Nvidia at the Big Skinny dot Com.
30:39
Speaker 6: It's not going to be just chip stocks like we
30:40
Speaker 6: were talking about before.
30:41
Speaker 9: It's going to be companies, for instance, that are helping
30:44
Speaker 9: develop solutions that can discover new drugs that treat incurable diseases.
30:48
Speaker 6: So that's just one of the examples of the names.
30:51
Speaker 1: Now.
30:51
Speaker 3: I think that blows people's minds too, because they're like,
30:53
Speaker 3: wait a minute, I don't think of biotech or pharma
30:56
Speaker 3: as being AI possible. But the truth is, like AI
31:01
Speaker 3: touches everything.
31:02
Speaker 9: It does and if you look, I mean Eli Lilly,
31:04
Speaker 9: now probably the largest pharmaceutical company in the market, has
31:09
Speaker 9: made multiple acquisitions and partnerships in the AI space to
31:12
Speaker 9: help them develop drugs faster to get them tested so
31:15
Speaker 9: that you don't have to do as much testing on humans,
31:18
Speaker 9: you can have more effective testing.
31:20
Speaker 6: So yeah, it's gonna. It's gonna infiltrate every way.
31:23
Speaker 9: We do business in every sector and area, just like
31:26
Speaker 9: I mean, I like to say, it's the same as.
31:27
Speaker 6: When five G broadband access came, right.
31:30
Speaker 9: It wasn't just a preserve for the telecoms, it was
31:33
Speaker 9: every business benefit from it. And AI is going to
31:35
Speaker 9: be the same accelerated accelerant for those industries. And so
31:38
Speaker 9: we've phoned in on ten names that we think will
31:41
Speaker 9: benefit very handsomely in the coming quarters and years, and
31:45
Speaker 9: just as the watch list for you at least to
31:46
Speaker 9: begin your research to take a look at some other
31:49
Speaker 9: opportunities that are outside in video.
31:51
Speaker 3: Okay, the way you get that list is you go
31:53
Speaker 3: to the big skinny dot com, the big skinny dot
31:56
Speaker 3: com and you just you just put your email in.
31:58
Speaker 3: They're gonna they're gonna give you an opportunity to get
32:00
Speaker 3: it as soon as you log onto that site.
32:02
Speaker 6: Completely free spam you. We don't sell any products.
32:05
Speaker 9: It's just a free research service to give you information
32:08
Speaker 9: on the markets on how to decipher a lot of
32:11
Speaker 9: the confusing headlines that come across.
32:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's great stuff.
32:14
Speaker 3: All right, final topic, the Fed and the President. You
32:18
Speaker 3: were very hopeful, as was I last time we spoke
32:22
Speaker 3: that the jobs report was going to be maybe better
32:24
Speaker 3: than anticipated and ended up being a few shades not
32:28
Speaker 3: as good.
32:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what's going on?
32:30
Speaker 9: Yeah, we hit a whammy. I can't remember what that
32:32
Speaker 9: game FOW was doing. They said, no whammy's no whammy.
32:34
Speaker 6: Stop.
32:34
Speaker 9: That just keeps the FED on hold right now. So
32:36
Speaker 9: it's the status quo remains the same. Mortgage rates are
32:39
Speaker 9: going to stay where they are, credit card rates for
32:42
Speaker 9: a little bit longer until we make sure that inflation
32:44
Speaker 9: from the war and Iran isn't making it harder for
32:47
Speaker 9: people to get by, and.
32:49
Speaker 6: That the labor market's okay.
32:50
Speaker 9: So again, I think there's a very public battle between
32:53
Speaker 9: the president and the new FED chair, Kevin Wassh. I think, rightfully,
32:57
Speaker 9: the FED chair wants to be credible above all that
33:00
Speaker 9: he's not concerned about does the President want to cut
33:03
Speaker 9: and no hikes. He's going to be data dependent, which
33:06
Speaker 9: means he's going to do the right thing for everyday Americans.
33:07
Speaker 1: Right so, based upon the.
33:09
Speaker 3: Data, assuming that what you say is true, that he
33:11
Speaker 3: wants to have high integrity. I also don't think the
33:14
Speaker 3: president wants to hurt the country So what is the
33:17
Speaker 3: president asking for and why is he asking for it?
33:21
Speaker 9: Yeah, I know, I agree with you one hundred percent.
33:22
Speaker 9: The President is doing everything you can to make everyday
33:25
Speaker 9: life better for every American and he just knows that
33:27
Speaker 9: when you lower interest rates, it spurs economic growth, it
33:31
Speaker 9: provides more opportunity. But you just don't want to do
33:32
Speaker 9: it at the wrong time. So I think it's not
33:34
Speaker 9: a cut good or bad. It's a good as long
33:37
Speaker 9: as it's done at the right time. And I think
33:39
Speaker 9: that's what the President's advocating. He thinks it's the right
33:41
Speaker 9: time or near the right time, and it's a good,
33:43
Speaker 9: good argument.
33:44
Speaker 6: For everyday Americans.
33:45
Speaker 1: Right.
33:45
Speaker 9: But Kevin Walsh is in that position and job to
33:48
Speaker 9: decide how do you convert the president's wishes into what's
33:51
Speaker 9: right at the right time.
33:52
Speaker 3: Well, and the truth is he's not supposed to convey
33:55
Speaker 3: the president's wishes.
33:56
Speaker 1: I mean that's so he's not.
33:59
Speaker 3: So let me shorthand this with the lower jobs number,
34:02
Speaker 3: how does that impact quarter three? And looking at year end, like,
34:06
Speaker 3: what are we thinking now going into this next You know,
34:09
Speaker 3: ninety days.
34:10
Speaker 9: Of productivity, great, it's one data point, doesn't change anything, right,
34:15
Speaker 9: So we had three really strong months, followed by a
34:17
Speaker 9: fourth month that was okay, you just got to watch
34:19
Speaker 9: and see what the labor market, what.
34:20
Speaker 6: The jobs numbers are in the coming months.
34:22
Speaker 9: We've got four more FED meetings this year. The economic
34:26
Speaker 9: growth has been rebounding so Q three, third quarter and
34:30
Speaker 9: fourth quarter expectations are strong.
34:32
Speaker 6: So I think that's good news. I think I said
34:34
Speaker 6: it on Friday that the.
34:36
Speaker 9: You know, the economy sets the mood for America, and
34:38
Speaker 9: the good news is the mood's improving.
34:41
Speaker 6: And I think that's the takeaway for the rest of
34:42
Speaker 6: the year.
34:43
Speaker 3: Well, I you know, I'm a resident in the Northeast
34:46
Speaker 3: and I saw gasoline not far from my home in
34:51
Speaker 3: the hovering above three dollars range. I think that's a
34:55
Speaker 3: huge improvement from where we were just a few weeks ago.
34:58
Speaker 9: Yeah, I agree with you, and it's going to keep
34:59
Speaker 9: getting back from there.
35:00
Speaker 6: Oil prices have come down.
35:02
Speaker 9: It usually takes gasoline about thirty to forty.
35:04
Speaker 6: Business days to reflect the lower prices completely.
35:07
Speaker 9: And you know, sadly, we'll never get to the days
35:09
Speaker 9: when I first got my license and gases like seventy
35:11
Speaker 9: nine cents account, but I think we'll get pretty darn
35:15
Speaker 9: close to that three dollars.
35:17
Speaker 1: You're showing your youth, young man.
35:19
Speaker 3: I remember coming out of the Carter years when Reagan
35:22
Speaker 3: got it down to a quarter, but it was a
35:26
Speaker 3: different day, different time for sure.
35:28
Speaker 1: All right.
35:28
Speaker 3: Lou Bassine the Big Skinny. You can get his podcast,
35:31
Speaker 3: it's on that website. But you can also get the
35:33
Speaker 3: free report ten ai plays that are not named in
35:38
Speaker 3: video and it's totally free and I think it'll it'll
35:40
Speaker 3: benefit you to take a look at it dbig Skinny
35:44
Speaker 3: dot com. Lou Bassinese, appreciate you.
35:46
Speaker 6: Appreciate you too. Thanks for having me.
35:48
Speaker 1: I got it.
35:48
Speaker 3: Kevin McCollough coming right back. Don't go anywhere, stick around
35:52
Speaker 3: for more of that Kevin.
35:54
Speaker 10: Next serving it up with a no drink minim.
36:10
Speaker 2: It's that Cabinet show.
36:13
Speaker 1: All right.
36:13
Speaker 3: Welcome back as we are rounding out our number one
36:16
Speaker 3: here on the Big That Kevin Show for this Monday.
36:20
Speaker 3: I did feel some rather deep embarrassment over the weekend
36:26
Speaker 3: as Mayor Zoron Mamdani embarrassed the city of New York
36:31
Speaker 3: on the national stage. He said some things that were
36:35
Speaker 3: just not only untrue, but just deeply deeply wrong in
36:39
Speaker 3: terms of how we should be thinking about the future
36:44
Speaker 3: and about our country, he said in his speech, as
36:47
Speaker 3: we mark two hundred and fifty years, what do we see.
36:49
Speaker 3: We see a city of contradictions, within a nation of contradictions.
36:52
Speaker 3: We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world,
36:55
Speaker 3: one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's
36:58
Speaker 3: first trillionaire hungers for more. First of all, if you
37:01
Speaker 3: take the children of America, and you take the entire population,
37:04
Speaker 3: the poorish child in America through to the richest child,
37:07
Speaker 3: and you put them all in one room, and you
37:11
Speaker 3: take the children's population of just about any other country
37:15
Speaker 3: on the planet, but especially large countries China, India, Russia,
37:21
Speaker 3: you are going to find that the average American child has, inherently,
37:27
Speaker 3: just by being in America, ten to twenty times the
37:31
Speaker 3: wealth of any of the children there. And I mean
37:34
Speaker 3: that in foodstocks, in food supplies, and the access to food.
37:38
Speaker 3: We make a big deal in this country about how
37:43
Speaker 3: there are some people that have more than others in
37:46
Speaker 3: this country. And there may be a discussion that's necessary
37:49
Speaker 3: about how to help everyone achieve more from where they're at.
37:54
Speaker 3: And I'm all in favor of that, but I do
37:58
Speaker 3: not accept the condition that children go to sleep hungry
38:01
Speaker 3: in the US. And when he says the first trillionaire
38:06
Speaker 3: hungers for more friends, we should not see that as
38:11
Speaker 3: a bad thing. The reason that Elon Musk has come
38:16
Speaker 3: to the status of being a trillionaire is because he's
38:20
Speaker 3: employed thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people that
38:26
Speaker 3: have worked in industries that he created that have made
38:30
Speaker 3: the world a better place. He was one of the
38:35
Speaker 3: founders I believe it was with eBay if it wasn't,
38:39
Speaker 3: and there was another Internet property of some renown that
38:42
Speaker 3: he was part of, but he was. I think it
38:44
Speaker 3: was eBay that he was a part of.
38:45
Speaker 1: And then he.
38:46
Speaker 3: Created Tesla, which was the world's kind of first mass
38:49
Speaker 3: produced electric car, and he just beat everybody else to
38:52
Speaker 3: the punch. And as he did, people saw some of
38:57
Speaker 3: the things that didn't work so well, and he began
38:59
Speaker 3: began to work making it better. And he's tried as
39:02
Speaker 3: time has gone by to improve those products, and I
39:05
Speaker 3: think that they are And now he's going into space,
39:08
Speaker 3: which if you know anything about NASA and the space
39:10
Speaker 3: program that we conducted here through our government, we found
39:15
Speaker 3: so much modern technology through what we had to do
39:18
Speaker 3: in space that it literally changed every We have a
39:22
Speaker 3: cell phone today because we sent people to space. We
39:25
Speaker 3: have all kinds of advantages in our lives now because
39:30
Speaker 3: we sent people to space. Elon Musk's never gone to space.
39:33
Speaker 3: He may never go to space. I don't know if
39:34
Speaker 3: he's going to go to space or not. But the
39:36
Speaker 3: fact that he has, for instance, just one thing, a
39:40
Speaker 3: rocket that can redock at its own docking station. NASA
39:44
Speaker 3: couldn't come up with that. The best we could do
39:46
Speaker 3: is the Space Shuttle and hope and pray that it
39:48
Speaker 3: comes down and has enough you know, floating space to
39:51
Speaker 3: get to the runway and do the touchdown. But it
39:55
Speaker 3: couldn't even then fly itself back across the country. He
39:57
Speaker 3: had to peggyback on the back of another plane and
39:59
Speaker 3: all the rest. Friends, we should not look at someone
40:05
Speaker 3: like Elon and go, oh, he's evil, because he didn't
40:08
Speaker 3: sit in a castle and have a bunch of money
40:11
Speaker 3: dropped on him. He went out and created jobs that
40:16
Speaker 3: created industries, that created technologies that are that we are
40:21
Speaker 3: now benefiting from. Every person listening to me probably has
40:24
Speaker 3: a little bit of Tesla in their four oh one
40:26
Speaker 3: k or I ra. Everyone listening to me may have
40:29
Speaker 3: some SpaceX in their retirement. Now it's we We owe
40:33
Speaker 3: a lot to his ingenuity and his innovation, and I
40:37
Speaker 3: just think it's the wrong look for Mayors Mandani to be.
40:42
Speaker 1: Slandering that. It's just untruthful.
40:44
Speaker 3: Kevin mccallu our two on the Way.
40:50
Speaker 1: The following program is pre recorded.
40:57
Speaker 3: Somewhere in the bowels.
40:58
Speaker 1: Of the City that Never Sleep.
41:00
Speaker 3: Kevin McCullough, radio host with Salor medium.
41:03
Speaker 4: Is a man also not sleeping mccallor and that guy
41:08
Speaker 4: would like a word with you.
41:10
Speaker 3: Many of you know him from a Snooks for Damas.
41:13
Speaker 5: Of course, that Kevin Show is going to be great.
41:15
Speaker 5: The only thing that could be greater, of course, would
41:16
Speaker 5: be that Donald Show.
41:17
Speaker 1: We don't have that.
41:18
Speaker 6: So we have That Kevin.
41:19
Speaker 7: Show, featuring the music of Dick Tunney and the Dream
41:24
Speaker 7: in Color Orchestra, straight ahead, everything you need to know
41:37
Speaker 7: about the top headlines of the day, and a perspective
41:41
Speaker 7: that will give you some eternity to it, plus practical
41:44
Speaker 7: tips for family life, spiritual life, and good old regular life.
41:51
Speaker 7: It's Kevin McCullough Monday through Friday on That Kevin Show
42:01
Speaker 7: and Now from the Connors and Sullivan Broadcast Studios. The
42:06
Speaker 7: Man who is not what he wants to be, but
42:09
Speaker 7: is way grateful that is not who he used to
42:12
Speaker 7: be here.
42:17
Speaker 3: So glad you're with us. Welcome in our number two,
42:21
Speaker 3: Kevin McCullough. Glad to have you here, Glad to be
42:24
Speaker 3: part of your life on a regular basis. Thank you
42:27
Speaker 3: to those four hundred stations affiliates that have us on
42:31
Speaker 3: on a daily basis in your life. And whether you
42:34
Speaker 3: are hearing me live as we do the show on
42:37
Speaker 3: this Monday, or whether you're catching me on a podcast
42:40
Speaker 3: or best of or something else, I'm just grateful that
42:43
Speaker 3: you're here, because what we're trying to do is give
42:46
Speaker 3: you information and help your life take on greater clarity
42:50
Speaker 3: so that we can do what is necessary to help
42:52
Speaker 3: you succeed.
42:54
Speaker 1: I want to talk about.
42:55
Speaker 3: Something in the aftermath of two point fifty that I've
42:58
Speaker 3: been thinking about a lot.
43:01
Speaker 1: This weekend was.
43:01
Speaker 3: One of those moments I will never forget. On Saturday,
43:04
Speaker 3: I had the privilege of joining the broadcast aboard the
43:07
Speaker 3: USS Intrepid as some classic warplanes took to the skies
43:12
Speaker 3: and then followed and preceded by some of the most
43:14
Speaker 3: lethal fighting aircraft ever built that we use now and
43:18
Speaker 3: the entire spectacle just spoke to me very deeply. I
43:21
Speaker 3: mean our ability as humans to design the FA eighteen,
43:26
Speaker 3: the F twenty two, the F thirty five and launched
43:29
Speaker 3: them from sea and land and watch them perform with
43:32
Speaker 3: breakthataking precision is just one of those chief reasons evil
43:36
Speaker 3: tyrants around the globe think twice before testing us. The
43:40
Speaker 3: fact that we use such innovation and overwhelming power in
43:43
Speaker 3: the defense of freedom and not for conquest. Think about
43:46
Speaker 3: this is a testament to both American military strength and
43:50
Speaker 3: our restraint. We're the strongest country on the planet, but
43:54
Speaker 3: we're the most restrained. But it also made me ask
43:58
Speaker 3: a different question, how do we stay ahead of the
44:02
Speaker 3: rest of the developed world, and how do we preserve
44:05
Speaker 3: that freedom not just for today, but how do we
44:08
Speaker 3: keep that freedom preserve for the next fifty or one
44:10
Speaker 3: hundred or two hundred and fifty years. Well, I believe
44:13
Speaker 3: a significant part of the current administration's strategy answers that
44:18
Speaker 3: question with two words, energy dominance, not energy independence. Not
44:25
Speaker 3: saying hey, we can operate free from.
44:27
Speaker 1: The rest of the world.
44:28
Speaker 3: We've had that ability for a long time, but energy dominance,
44:31
Speaker 3: Now there's a difference. Independence means meeting your own needs.
44:35
Speaker 3: Dominance means having so much energy that you shape the
44:38
Speaker 3: future for a lot of other countries, and President Trump
44:41
Speaker 3: has understood that energy has become the world's most valuable currency.
44:47
Speaker 3: This weekend, the Marxist mayor of New York was telling
44:50
Speaker 3: residents to keep their thermostats at seventy eight degrees because
44:54
Speaker 3: supposedly it was the only way to protect the electrical grid. Meanwhile,
44:58
Speaker 3: his own air conditioning remained comfortably paid for, and his
45:01
Speaker 3: wife got on a private jet and headed off to Spain.
45:05
Speaker 3: The message was simple enough. You sacrifice will manage you.
45:09
Speaker 3: At nearly the same time, critics mocked the Great American
45:12
Speaker 3: State Fair for temporarily closing portions of the grounds during
45:15
Speaker 3: the hottest part of the day out of concerns for visitors' health. Yeah,
45:19
Speaker 3: they mocked the people for being careful.
45:21
Speaker 1: That's terrible.
45:22
Speaker 3: Whether you're talking about public safety, quality of life, economic growth.
45:26
Speaker 3: One truth keeps surfacing. Energy matters more, I would say,
45:32
Speaker 3: in the fiscal sense than almost anything else. America possesses
45:37
Speaker 3: more energy resources than almost any nation on Earth right now.
45:40
Speaker 3: I don't know if people know that, and that's one
45:42
Speaker 3: of the reasons we've become who we are. We have
45:45
Speaker 3: consistently looked beyond today's needs and invested in tomorrow's opportunities.
45:51
Speaker 3: That's good stewardship, by the way, That's how we should
45:54
Speaker 3: manage our finances. That's how we should manage our families.
45:57
Speaker 3: That's how we should manage our country. A few days ago,
45:59
Speaker 3: my son asked me how Elon Musk became the world's
46:01
Speaker 3: first trillionaire. I thought about it for a minute before answering,
46:05
Speaker 3: and then I said, because he saw what people would
46:07
Speaker 3: need before they knew they needed it, and then he
46:08
Speaker 3: built it first, and he kept making it better. Look
46:12
Speaker 3: at the first generation of Tesla's and compare them to
46:14
Speaker 3: today's models. The progress is remarkable. Watch SpaceX recover and
46:20
Speaker 3: reland its own rockets, and you realize the company isn't
46:23
Speaker 3: merely competing with everyone else. It's forcing everyone else to
46:26
Speaker 3: catch up. And that's what vision looks like. And that's
46:28
Speaker 3: what brings me back to energy. What solves America's long
46:33
Speaker 3: term energy challenge, What powers artificial intelligence, manufacturing, transportation, and
46:39
Speaker 3: the economy for generations instead of just election cycles. I
46:45
Speaker 3: believe nuclear power deserves to be at the center of
46:47
Speaker 3: that conversation. For decades, the conversation surrounding nuclear has been
46:52
Speaker 3: dominated by fear rather than facts. Yet modern small modular
46:57
Speaker 3: reactors bear little resemblance to what most Americans imagine. They
47:02
Speaker 3: promise steady, reliable electricity with a remarkably small footprint while
47:07
Speaker 3: operating around the clock regardless of weather conditions. If the
47:11
Speaker 3: technology continues to develop as expected, a relatively small number
47:16
Speaker 3: of reactors could provide dependable electricity to major metropolitan areas.
47:20
Speaker 3: Let me give you some Let me give you some statistics.
47:23
Speaker 3: If one modular reactor can power a village or a
47:28
Speaker 3: town or a city of three hundred thousand families for
47:32
Speaker 3: nine for ninety one years in its low power mode,
47:38
Speaker 3: think about that ninety years can supply everything that that
47:41
Speaker 3: town needs for the next ninety one years in low
47:44
Speaker 3: power mode. And there's a company that makes that kind
47:47
Speaker 3: of reactor right now. They're called Eagle Nuclear. But if
47:50
Speaker 3: that is in fact in existence, and it is, then
47:54
Speaker 3: it would only require about twelve hundred of those reactors
47:57
Speaker 3: to power something as big as New York City, assuming
48:01
Speaker 3: assuming that fossil fuels continue to serve transportation and backup
48:04
Speaker 3: generation for years to come, Expanding nuclear capacity would allow
48:09
Speaker 3: America to preserve more of those resources while dramatically lowering
48:12
Speaker 3: the cost of electricity. Who could use lower electricity bills?
48:16
Speaker 3: Have you seen what you're paying this year? Checked your
48:18
Speaker 3: electric bill during this hot as haites summer? Exactly The
48:23
Speaker 3: minerals required to build the next generation of reactors from
48:26
Speaker 3: rare earth elements to uranium also explain why America's competition
48:30
Speaker 3: with China goes well beyond tariffs and trade. Whoever controls
48:34
Speaker 3: the supply chains beyond tomorrow's energy technologies will possess enormous
48:39
Speaker 3: strategic leverage. Now America is blessed. We've got substantial uranium reserves,
48:43
Speaker 3: and American companies already are working to develop the next
48:47
Speaker 3: generation of small, modular reactors. And as we celebrate America's
48:52
Speaker 3: two hundred and fiftieth birthday, we stand on the edge
48:54
Speaker 3: of the next great chapter in our history. Every generation
48:58
Speaker 3: of Americans has been asked to imagine a future no
49:01
Speaker 3: one else could yet see, and then build it anyway.
49:03
Speaker 3: And I believe this generation has been handed that same assignment.
49:07
Speaker 3: So let's look at this cleaner, more abundant, more reliable,
49:13
Speaker 3: more affordable nuclear energy may well become the next great
49:17
Speaker 3: American frontier. And I pray that America never loses the
49:20
Speaker 3: ability to see tomorrow before tomorrow arrives, because that's always
49:25
Speaker 3: been our greatest strength. And I think if we if
49:30
Speaker 3: we forget that, if we stop looking at the horizon,
49:34
Speaker 3: if we stop going where it's necessary to go before
49:38
Speaker 3: everybody else is there, then we'll start to slip as
49:42
Speaker 3: a country. But this is in a fiscal sense, the
49:45
Speaker 3: pursuit of nuclear power, safe nuclear power, dependable nuclear power.
49:50
Speaker 3: And I was at a presentation by EGO Nuclear a
49:54
Speaker 3: few months ago. They have the largest uranium supply known
50:00
Speaker 3: to man right now here in the US. It's on
50:03
Speaker 3: it's they own it. Why can't we go nuclear from
50:09
Speaker 3: sea to shining Sea. I think it's something we need
50:13
Speaker 3: to start talking about. I think it's something that we
50:15
Speaker 3: have to start considering because I think that at the
50:18
Speaker 3: end of the day, we're gonna need We're gonna need it.
50:21
Speaker 1: I mean, we talk.
50:22
Speaker 3: About AI and power centers and all this stuff, we
50:25
Speaker 3: haven't begun to really understand the amount of energy that's
50:28
Speaker 3: going to be necessary. And I think nuclear is going
50:32
Speaker 3: to play a huge role.
50:32
Speaker 1: I could be wrong.
50:33
Speaker 3: Feel free to send me an email that Kevin Show
50:36
Speaker 3: at gmail dot com, That Kevin Show at gmail dot com.
50:39
Speaker 1: But just some thoughts on that today.
50:41
Speaker 3: Kevin mckellach coming right back, very special conversation with Ryan
50:45
Speaker 3: batesl coming out nextage.
51:02
Speaker 2: Here he is from New York. Exact Kevin McCullough.
51:09
Speaker 3: All right, Kevin mchella, welcome back. It's the Monday edition
51:12
Speaker 3: that Kevin Show, that Kevinshow dot com for everything related.
51:15
Speaker 1: We never put it behind a paywall.
51:17
Speaker 3: We always want you to have access to it, especially
51:19
Speaker 3: when the eternal truths are involved. When it's something that
51:24
Speaker 3: is as important as eternity and the relationship that you
51:28
Speaker 3: have with the creator, if you don't believe in him,
51:32
Speaker 3: we want you to have access to that. And that's
51:34
Speaker 3: why we have a commitment to keep that kevinshow dot
51:37
Speaker 3: com paywall free and continue to hope that you will
51:42
Speaker 3: continue to use it. More and more of you are,
51:43
Speaker 3: by the way, each month for the last three you've
51:46
Speaker 3: almost doubled the record number of people that have gone
51:49
Speaker 3: there every single month, and we're just grateful. We just
51:52
Speaker 3: want it to be useful and that's what we're praying
51:54
Speaker 3: it will.
51:55
Speaker 1: Be to you.
51:57
Speaker 3: My next guest is someone who's been with us several
51:59
Speaker 3: times tis with the series How Do We Live? We've
52:02
Speaker 3: looked at various passages on different things. But I got
52:06
Speaker 3: wind of a series that he has just concluded in
52:10
Speaker 3: the Book of Judges, and Ryan, I happened to be
52:13
Speaker 3: in attendance with Emergence Church in New Jersey yesterday heard
52:18
Speaker 3: the concluding message in the series on Judges, and I
52:24
Speaker 3: just said, there's too much here that applies to what
52:27
Speaker 3: we're dealing with in life today, and we've got to
52:30
Speaker 3: talk about it. So Ryan batesl, Senior lead pastor at
52:33
Speaker 3: Emergence Church in New Jersey, welcome back to that Kevin show.
52:36
Speaker 11: Hey, Kevin, great to be with you.
52:39
Speaker 3: I always seem to learn really good insights from listening
52:44
Speaker 3: to your teaching, and I'm grateful that you do things
52:48
Speaker 3: like take on the very difficult book of the Book
52:51
Speaker 3: of Judges. Now I want everyone listening. When's the last day.
52:55
Speaker 3: If you don't go to church very often, you may
52:56
Speaker 3: have never heard a message from the Book of Judges.
52:59
Speaker 3: But even those of you that go to church on
53:02
Speaker 3: a regular basis, Ryan, this is not something that a
53:05
Speaker 3: lot of pastors are digging through saying, Hey, this is
53:08
Speaker 3: going to help build happy marriages and keep people from
53:12
Speaker 3: you know, the doldrums of life this sort of thing.
53:15
Speaker 3: Judges is a unique book.
53:16
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's tough, and it's dark, and the conclusion, what
53:20
Speaker 11: we talked about yesterday church is probably the most dark part, right,
53:24
Speaker 11: I mean, it's a brutal book.
53:26
Speaker 3: Well, when you think about the kind of condition of mankind,
53:32
Speaker 3: we live in a dark world. I talk about at
53:34
Speaker 3: this microphone, things like slavery that still exists in like
53:39
Speaker 3: Sudan and Northern Sudan. We talk about sex trafficking, we
53:42
Speaker 3: talk about gang violence, we talk about you know, sometimes
53:46
Speaker 3: religious violence in other parts of the country. I mean,
53:49
Speaker 3: I don't feel like we've outgrown some of the things
53:52
Speaker 3: that they do in Judges. If anything, we've just gotten
53:54
Speaker 3: more sophisticated with them.
53:56
Speaker 6: Yeah.
53:56
Speaker 11: I think that's exactly right.
53:58
Speaker 1: You know.
53:58
Speaker 11: I think a lot of people say that the Bible
54:01
Speaker 11: doesn't just describe what happens, it describes what always happens.
54:05
Speaker 6: You know.
54:06
Speaker 11: I had a lady come up to me yesterday and
54:08
Speaker 11: she said, you know, just disturbed by how some of
54:11
Speaker 11: these themes continue. And I just said, well, Satan's not
54:14
Speaker 11: a creator. He tends to take people out the same way,
54:18
Speaker 11: and it is disturbing.
54:21
Speaker 1: Yeah.
54:21
Speaker 3: First of all, the context of Judges, what is happening
54:25
Speaker 3: when this book gets written, and why did you know,
54:29
Speaker 3: God feel it was important that we have the accounts
54:32
Speaker 3: of what arguably looks like a dissension into madness.
54:36
Speaker 6: Yeah.
54:36
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think there's two massive things that that result
54:40
Speaker 11: in the in the culture just falling apart, because that's
54:43
Speaker 11: really what happens at the end. The first is they
54:46
Speaker 11: come out from the generation of Joshua, which is this
54:49
Speaker 11: incredible generation. But then early in the Book of Judges,
54:53
Speaker 11: we see for some reason this generation that walks so
54:57
Speaker 11: powerfully with the Lord and Joshua, the truth get passed
55:00
Speaker 11: on to the next generation. And it's wild to me
55:03
Speaker 11: because it goes from the best generation to the worst
55:07
Speaker 11: generation in only one generation, one generation of believers who
55:12
Speaker 11: don't pass on the truth. And so there's one big
55:15
Speaker 11: pillar of why it gets so bad. The second big
55:19
Speaker 11: pillar is just this refrain we see throughout the book
55:22
Speaker 11: that in those days there was no king in Israel,
55:25
Speaker 11: and so here's the phrase, so everyone did what was
55:28
Speaker 11: right in his own eyes. Ouch, yeah, meaning imagine the
55:31
Speaker 11: culture Kevin, where everyone's just true to themselves or follows
55:34
Speaker 11: their heart.
55:35
Speaker 6: You know.
55:36
Speaker 1: Ouch.
55:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it wasn't one generation, but we just
55:39
Speaker 3: celebrated to fifty. And I'm thinking because the like last
55:44
Speaker 3: six months going into two fifty, I was watching all
55:46
Speaker 3: kinds of historical biographies and documentaries of historical leaders, and
55:51
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's something that I think some people
55:55
Speaker 3: misrepresent and then they over represent, and sometimes people underrepresent
56:00
Speaker 3: it and just ignore it. But there were a large
56:02
Speaker 3: number of our founders who actually believed in the God
56:06
Speaker 3: of the Bible, actually believed in divine providence, actually believed
56:10
Speaker 3: that God wanted them to establish a country that was
56:14
Speaker 3: different than anywhere else. And even though we wrestled with
56:19
Speaker 3: an original sin of slavery for far too many generations,
56:22
Speaker 3: God even allowed James Madison to put into the constitution
56:26
Speaker 3: this kind of tool by which we could correct that,
56:29
Speaker 3: and we eventually did so. Like, it wasn't one generation
56:36
Speaker 3: from seventeen seventy six to twenty twenty six, but it
56:39
Speaker 3: certainly feels like the phrase did what was right in
56:44
Speaker 3: their own eyes could apply massively to the American culture today.
56:49
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, and like we said throughout human history, right,
56:52
Speaker 11: Like I was just reading this morning about both Spurgeon
56:58
Speaker 11: and Karl Marx were a lot and at the peak
57:01
Speaker 11: of their thought and influence in England at the same point.
57:05
Speaker 11: And this author was talking about how the biblical thought
57:10
Speaker 11: of Spurgeon is probably what held the line in England
57:15
Speaker 11: to not follow Karl Marx, and that his movement hated Spurgeon.
57:21
Speaker 6: And here's a guy.
57:22
Speaker 11: We don't think of Spurgeon as political, but he just
57:25
Speaker 11: taught the Bible and taught individual responsibility and individual salvation.
57:30
Speaker 11: And they're like, man, that that protected England.
57:34
Speaker 3: You know, well, you mentioned the fact that they did
57:38
Speaker 3: this in one basically one generation, So you're talking about
57:42
Speaker 3: a period of what thirty to forty maybe fifty years
57:45
Speaker 3: that the nation of Israel went from being super blessed
57:48
Speaker 3: to utter chaos.
57:51
Speaker 11: The beginning, right, and then it's spirals and spirals over
57:55
Speaker 11: a number of decades, worse and worse. But it took
57:58
Speaker 11: one generation to stop being faithful, and that it just
58:04
Speaker 11: to stop, you know, to not compromise, to trust the Lord,
58:07
Speaker 11: to cling to the simple truth.
58:11
Speaker 2: You know.
58:11
Speaker 11: One of the things that I think is as Christians,
58:14
Speaker 11: we want to advocate for the best leaders and the
58:17
Speaker 11: best policies because they help the gospel. But sometimes I
58:22
Speaker 11: think we make the mistake of thinking that's what we
58:26
Speaker 11: need for the gospel. No, the gospel is the power
58:28
Speaker 11: of the culture.
58:29
Speaker 3: Yes, I want to come back to that in a second,
58:31
Speaker 3: but I want to say I want to ask very clearly,
58:35
Speaker 3: because that's a tremendous point that you brought out yesterday,
58:37
Speaker 3: that you were just making. But I want to get
58:39
Speaker 3: to yesterday's message in particular.
58:41
Speaker 1: In just a moment.
58:42
Speaker 3: But what I want to ask is, is Judges in
58:45
Speaker 3: all of this Because we see Samson, we see some
58:48
Speaker 3: characters that we might have heard about and know about.
58:51
Speaker 3: But is this a message to non believers? Or was
58:55
Speaker 3: this Where are these messages to people that are supposedly
58:59
Speaker 3: followers of God?
59:02
Speaker 11: I think, I mean, obviously right, we can always have
59:06
Speaker 11: hope for non believers. But when I read Judges, I
59:08
Speaker 11: think Judges serves as the clear warning for the believer
59:15
Speaker 11: who's tempted to compromise, who's tempted to, I don't know,
59:21
Speaker 11: not do the hard work of discipling our kids and
59:24
Speaker 11: passing all the truths. Who's tempted to think it's someone
59:28
Speaker 11: else's job in their generation. And it just shows how
59:33
Speaker 11: quickly things fall apart on the people of God. Aren't
59:37
Speaker 11: the people of God?
59:40
Speaker 3: You said in yesterday's message. And by the way, friends,
59:42
Speaker 3: if you want to go and see it for yourself,
59:45
Speaker 3: Emergence in jay on YouTube has this message posted. It's
59:52
Speaker 3: their YouTube channel and you can also find out more
59:55
Speaker 3: at Emergence dot Church I think is the website being
59:59
Speaker 3: can check out in either place. But you mentioned yesterday
1:00:03
Speaker 3: that Judges has like five levels of madness or crazy
1:00:09
Speaker 3: that it gets to what just give us the benchmarks?
1:00:12
Speaker 3: What were those like levels?
1:00:15
Speaker 11: The beginning, you know, level one, you see the people
1:00:18
Speaker 11: walk away from the Lord, and you know that, I'd
1:00:21
Speaker 11: say that's level one. Level two and three you start
1:00:25
Speaker 11: to see some of their judges themselves. Not only do
1:00:28
Speaker 11: the people continue to walk away from the Lord, but
1:00:31
Speaker 11: some of the leaders are become a little cowardly and
1:00:34
Speaker 11: a little fearful. And by the time you get to
1:00:36
Speaker 11: level four, the leaders, guys like Samson and guys like
1:00:41
Speaker 11: Gideon become increasingly selfish. And you know, Samson, always the
1:00:47
Speaker 11: most gifted of all the judges God raises up, he
1:00:50
Speaker 11: actually accomplishes the least and he never really uses his
1:00:54
Speaker 11: gifts for anyone. But his own flesh and his own self.
1:00:58
Speaker 11: And so Level four is like, not just the culture's bad,
1:01:02
Speaker 11: the leaders are bad.
1:01:03
Speaker 5: It's hard.
1:01:04
Speaker 11: It's hard to read the stories and be like, who's
1:01:06
Speaker 11: the good guy. And then by the time we get
1:01:08
Speaker 11: the level five, it's all out, you know, destruction and anarchy.
1:01:12
Speaker 3: And we're gonna we're going to pick up on that thought.
1:01:14
Speaker 3: On the other side of this break, Ryan batesl is
1:01:16
Speaker 3: my guest. He's the senior lead pastor at Emergence Church.
1:01:19
Speaker 3: He was the very first pastor we had on our
1:01:22
Speaker 3: special segment called how Do We Live? And we're kind
1:01:24
Speaker 3: of going a little deep on something today because I
1:01:27
Speaker 3: just feel like, what we what you taught on yesterday,
1:01:31
Speaker 3: Ryan was so incredibly vibrantly important, and we're gonna we're
1:01:35
Speaker 3: gonna pull that back, pull the skin on that back
1:01:38
Speaker 3: when we come back. Kevin mccaullaugh coming right back to uncle.
1:01:41
Speaker 12: Stick around for more that Kevin next.
1:02:02
Speaker 2: Here he is from New York. Kevin McCullough.
1:02:08
Speaker 3: All right, glad to have you with us. It's that
1:02:10
Speaker 3: Kevin Show, that kevinshow dot com.
1:02:12
Speaker 1: Kevin McCall it my name. Glad to have you with us.
1:02:14
Speaker 3: Thank you, for however, you're joining US podcast broadcast whatever.
1:02:18
Speaker 3: We're just glad you're there. Ryan batesl is my guest
1:02:21
Speaker 3: and he is a pastor in the local New York,
1:02:24
Speaker 3: New Jersey Tri State. Very blessed. Actually, you may have
1:02:28
Speaker 3: seen an article in the USA today about a revival
1:02:32
Speaker 3: taking place in the Tri state area. Is that possible
1:02:35
Speaker 3: in New Jersey of all places? Well, that's that's something
1:02:39
Speaker 3: that Ryan you touched on yesterday in your message with
1:02:44
Speaker 3: your your home base there you have multiple campuses, but
1:02:49
Speaker 3: at your home base in Totawa, New Jersey, you were
1:02:51
Speaker 3: actually talking about something that you guys do called church
1:02:55
Speaker 3: outside and a lot of people have come to faith
1:02:57
Speaker 3: in Jesus through those services. And there's more information. They
1:03:01
Speaker 3: have one coming up if you want to know more
1:03:03
Speaker 3: about it on Emergence dot Church.
1:03:05
Speaker 1: That's where you go.
1:03:06
Speaker 3: But we're talking about the series and Judges and Ryan
1:03:10
Speaker 3: you started yesterday's message by saying, this is where it
1:03:13
Speaker 3: gets crazy and there's nothing that redeems it at the end,
1:03:17
Speaker 3: and something goes through my mind that says, Okay, then
1:03:21
Speaker 3: why do we teach on it if there's no redemption
1:03:23
Speaker 3: in it? Like it's just it's just a rated our
1:03:26
Speaker 3: movie for rated our movie's sake.
1:03:27
Speaker 1: I mean, what was the story there?
1:03:29
Speaker 6: Well?
1:03:30
Speaker 11: I think two things. I think one, sometimes God in
1:03:33
Speaker 11: his mercy, pulls back the curtain and allows us to
1:03:38
Speaker 11: see the harvest of sin, and when you see how
1:03:43
Speaker 11: bad it is, you don't want it, you know what
1:03:45
Speaker 11: I mean. And sometimes we only see sin in its springtime,
1:03:50
Speaker 11: and Judges allows us to see its fall and it's
1:03:54
Speaker 11: winter and its destruction and enough of it to go.
1:03:58
Speaker 6: I don't want that.
1:04:00
Speaker 11: And then the second the hope really is it points
1:04:03
Speaker 11: to hey, until Christ comes, He's the true deliver. I
1:04:09
Speaker 11: mean a lot of these delivers, these judges fail. In
1:04:12
Speaker 11: the Book of Judges, there is a coming deliver in
1:04:16
Speaker 11: Christ who never fails.
1:04:17
Speaker 1: It's a thing about his whole things.
1:04:19
Speaker 3: Let's delve into chapters nineteen twenty and twenty one. Though,
1:04:22
Speaker 3: what do we see happening here? What's the best story?
1:04:25
Speaker 1: Brutal?
1:04:25
Speaker 11: It's brutal. I mean, it's it's a replay in some
1:04:30
Speaker 11: ways of Sodom and Gomorah. It's become clear that nation
1:04:33
Speaker 11: has become worse than Sodom and Gomorrah. There's a priest
1:04:37
Speaker 11: who has a concubine and just like in Sodom, Gomora
1:04:40
Speaker 11: mobs arounds the house and they forced the rout and
1:04:43
Speaker 11: they violate her and she dies, and then he is
1:04:47
Speaker 11: graphic Kevin. He carves up his body and sends it
1:04:50
Speaker 11: to the tribes of Israel. Then there's a civil war
1:04:52
Speaker 11: against the tribe of Benjamin. It's like the nation has
1:04:56
Speaker 11: become worse than Sodom and Gomore, more wicked then the
1:05:00
Speaker 11: surrounding nations in this short time of walking away from
1:05:03
Speaker 11: the Lord, and they're finally going, you know, to battle,
1:05:08
Speaker 11: but against themselves, and so it's a it's a tragic,
1:05:11
Speaker 11: tragic ending. And then you see they're trying to think
1:05:14
Speaker 11: through ways to fix what they've done, and they're just
1:05:16
Speaker 11: making it worse because not only have they failed, but
1:05:20
Speaker 11: man's wisdoms collapsing outside of the Lord. And so you
1:05:23
Speaker 11: just see, you know, patterns of sexual violence and brokenness,
1:05:27
Speaker 11: the inability of man's wisdom, increase violence and war, and
1:05:31
Speaker 11: a culture all all these things as the spiral goes
1:05:35
Speaker 11: down and down.
1:05:36
Speaker 3: You made the point specifically though, that when this is
1:05:41
Speaker 3: the natural outcome of not following God's intended flourishing will for.
1:05:48
Speaker 11: Us, Yeah, this is where society will always go into
1:05:52
Speaker 11: violence in the sexual sin.
1:05:54
Speaker 3: I mean that's left their own devices. Yeah, apart from God,
1:05:58
Speaker 3: this is where they end up. And you you brought
1:06:01
Speaker 3: everyone back to God's ideal when it comes to marriage,
1:06:06
Speaker 3: and you said it would solve a number of problems
1:06:10
Speaker 3: in our current culture today. Now, but you said, when
1:06:13
Speaker 3: God's will is followed, it provides a cure for a.
1:06:17
Speaker 1: Number of things. So what were some of the things
1:06:19
Speaker 1: that you listed yesterday?
1:06:20
Speaker 11: Well, I mean we just talked about because you know,
1:06:22
Speaker 11: just as a pastor, sometimes people will hear, especially when
1:06:25
Speaker 11: you're talking to them about your faith, and they'll hear
1:06:27
Speaker 11: God's standard on sex and sexuality one man and one
1:06:30
Speaker 11: woman in one lifetime, and they'll say that's crazy. And
1:06:33
Speaker 11: I always go, man, let's judge crazy by the fruit
1:06:36
Speaker 11: of what it produces. And just spend a little time
1:06:41
Speaker 11: looking at the passage, going that looks crazy, rape, violence, war,
1:06:45
Speaker 11: Here's what's not crazy. One man loving one woman really
1:06:49
Speaker 11: well and enjoying each other their whole life. And God's design.
1:06:54
Speaker 11: You know that God gives me to love a wife.
1:06:57
Speaker 11: What a gift that is. And if you just start
1:07:00
Speaker 11: to peel the onion for twenty seconds, I mean you
1:07:03
Speaker 11: just kind of did some of it to go, well,
1:07:05
Speaker 11: what if as a culture we obeyed God's standard on sex, Well,
1:07:10
Speaker 11: it would end rape, it would end sexually transmitted diseases,
1:07:14
Speaker 11: it would end abortion, it would end teen pregnancy, it
1:07:17
Speaker 11: would end affairs, it would end a lot of homes
1:07:20
Speaker 11: falling apart, a lot of children growing up with single
1:07:23
Speaker 11: parent families, and statistically the difficulty that creates. I mean
1:07:28
Speaker 11: you can just begin to go, Wow, we're settling for
1:07:33
Speaker 11: crazy as a culture. God's standard is wonderful.
1:07:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you reeled off that list, I was like,
1:07:39
Speaker 3: there was a dozen or more things that you mentioned,
1:07:42
Speaker 3: and I was like, wow, that really would if we
1:07:45
Speaker 3: just followed God's will in just that part of our lives,
1:07:49
Speaker 3: would it would correct all those things? And imagine the pain,
1:07:53
Speaker 3: the human damage, the things that that all changes. And friends,
1:07:58
Speaker 3: those of you listening, that's the purpose God created us
1:08:02
Speaker 3: to flourish. He created us to know Him, to grow
1:08:05
Speaker 3: in the relationship with Him so that we don't have chaotic, destroyed,
1:08:11
Speaker 3: you know, despisable lives, but instead we have the great
1:08:17
Speaker 3: gift of love and protection and peace and joy and
1:08:21
Speaker 3: all the other things that come with Him. And Ryan
1:08:24
Speaker 3: what a powerful reminder you laid out, and I just
1:08:27
Speaker 3: want to say thank you for being faithful and thanks
1:08:29
Speaker 3: for sharing it with us.
1:08:30
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Thanks you got it.

1:09:40
Speaker 3: Dividends are very big bonuses in Hillary Kramer's.
1:09:43
Speaker 14: Book, incredibly wonderful. You know, will you have to think about, Kevin,
1:09:49
Speaker 14: is that those momentum stocks that have made so many
1:09:52
Speaker 14: people billions of dollars, they're down twenty four percent from
1:09:56
Speaker 14: their high. When I said momentum, he that's that mag seven,
1:10:00
Speaker 14: the semiconductor great ones, and they all have all these acronyms.
1:10:04
Speaker 14: Now for them, it's down twenty four percent. So you
1:10:08
Speaker 14: have to hit it right and you have to eat
1:10:09
Speaker 14: it right at.
1:10:09
Speaker 6: The right time.
1:10:11
Speaker 11: You know.
1:10:11
Speaker 14: I'm very humble, but I have to say, people who
1:10:13
Speaker 14: listen to me have made millions of dollars because I
1:10:16
Speaker 14: do come up with stocks before anyone else does. Okay,
1:10:19
Speaker 14: let's take a look at a stock like Palenteer. I
1:10:21
Speaker 14: was talking about it with you for years. Seven dollars, ten, twelve, fifteen,
1:10:27
Speaker 14: right all the way up, so people have made one
1:10:29
Speaker 14: thousand percent. I've done the same thing with in video.
1:10:33
Speaker 14: We've done the same thing. You've given me the opportunity
1:10:36
Speaker 14: to talk about my mushroom stock DFTs okay, so you know,
1:10:40
Speaker 14: and memory chips. So I do present those. But in general,
1:10:45
Speaker 14: the listeners, those who are listening to us right now,
1:10:49
Speaker 14: believe me when I say that the big boys have
1:10:52
Speaker 14: already sold or they're selling their stakes to you while
1:10:57
Speaker 14: you're busy buying. Thinks you're going to make lots of money.
1:11:00
Speaker 14: So the way you can win, and that's by having
1:11:03
Speaker 14: a divid in yield, and the divit and yield means
1:11:06
Speaker 14: that the money comes in every single year. You can
1:11:10
Speaker 14: get with her it's three percent, five percent. We're going
1:11:12
Speaker 14: to go through those stocks together. But the important point
1:11:15
Speaker 14: here is that like the tortoise in the it's a
1:11:19
Speaker 14: fable that people continue listening to to this day because
1:11:24
Speaker 14: there's really reality based truth in it. Okay, so let's get.
1:11:28
Speaker 1: Short on time.
1:11:28
Speaker 3: Let's get you got ten of them, Let's try to
1:11:30
Speaker 3: knock them out.
1:11:31
Speaker 14: We're going to knock him out quickly. Let's start with
1:11:33
Speaker 14: Pfizer PFE, the world's largest pharmaceutical company. Remember the COVID
1:11:39
Speaker 14: vaccine boom faded and that brought the stock price down
1:11:42
Speaker 14: and slowly it's been deflating. But they have cancer treatments.
1:11:46
Speaker 14: They acquired forty three billion dollars Sigan, and they have
1:11:49
Speaker 14: the GLP one drug space. And the appeal here is
1:11:53
Speaker 14: by Pfizer PFE. Everyone listen up seven point one percent
1:11:58
Speaker 14: divid in yield, seven point one percent and it's a
1:12:02
Speaker 14: phenomenal stock that's regrowing. So you get that seven point
1:12:05
Speaker 14: one percent, and the underlying stock price itself could increase.
1:12:09
Speaker 14: Even if it only goes up five percent a year.
1:12:11
Speaker 14: Plus a dividend, you end up with thirteen percent compounding.
1:12:15
Speaker 14: Make it beautiful. Let's talk about Verizon. Okay, they're they're
1:12:19
Speaker 14: literally just killing it. Okay with their fiber optic broadband business.
1:12:23
Speaker 14: Nineteen contestants that consecutive years Verizon has raised its dividend.
1:12:28
Speaker 14: There's a heavy debt load, which and there's a lot
1:12:31
Speaker 14: of competition which keeps some investors out, but the dividend
1:12:34
Speaker 14: is well established and generously funded, and you get a
1:12:38
Speaker 14: six point seven percent Divitan yelled Vsy Victor Zebra Verizon.
1:12:43
Speaker 6: Now let's talk about a rate N and N.
1:12:48
Speaker 14: It's a real estate investment trust that has these free
1:12:51
Speaker 14: standing properties. I wasn't going to get it today, but
1:12:53
Speaker 14: then I decided I would because they're properties that have
1:12:57
Speaker 14: these long leases. Are auto service company, these quick service restaurants,
1:13:01
Speaker 14: convenience stores, companies that are going to make it just
1:13:05
Speaker 14: as big during times of unaffordability and recession as it
1:13:10
Speaker 14: would in tom boom times. Okay, So in and and
1:13:14
Speaker 14: phenomenal company. They have increased their dividends to thirty six
1:13:17
Speaker 14: years in a row. You get a different deal to
1:13:19
Speaker 14: five point four percent. I love this one. Revenue grows
1:13:23
Speaker 14: six point six percent a year.
1:13:25
Speaker 6: Here's one.
1:13:25
Speaker 14: The ticker symbol is OH and it's Realty Income. The
1:13:30
Speaker 14: catch here is you get a monthly dinitend. I mean
1:13:33
Speaker 14: it doesn't mean you don't. You don't get five point
1:13:35
Speaker 14: two percent every month. It comes out to five point
1:13:38
Speaker 14: two percent annualized, but you get a payment and it's
1:13:41
Speaker 14: just a great dividend. Aristocratic stock and uh and I
1:13:46
Speaker 14: love this. And they have a lot of resisiant, recession
1:13:49
Speaker 14: resistant tenants, a lot of the dollar stores, drug stores,
1:13:53
Speaker 14: convenience stores, and they're in all fifty states, and they're
1:13:56
Speaker 14: in the end, they're in Europe. Now, let's do Enbridge
1:13:58
Speaker 14: Enbridge e N it's one of North America's largest energy
1:14:03
Speaker 14: infrastructure companies. This is a great one. I really love EENB.
1:14:09
Speaker 14: Are you following along with me so you can see
1:14:12
Speaker 14: what the I am.
1:14:13
Speaker 3: The dividend yield is five point two percent.
1:14:16
Speaker 14: Yes, that is absolutely right, And I think E and
1:14:18
Speaker 14: B is a really great one to go for. Enbridge
1:14:21
Speaker 14: let's move on to Snoko products, which we did once before. Son.
1:14:26
Speaker 14: It's a packager, so people are going to continue to
1:14:28
Speaker 14: buy from from Amazon or from the supermarket. When you
1:14:32
Speaker 14: get your chap to me at the supermarket, it comes
1:14:34
Speaker 14: like with they got like a black shell underneath it. It's
1:14:37
Speaker 14: like styrofoam. And that's what Snoco does. It's a MidCap
1:14:41
Speaker 14: in twenty twenty six marks. It's one hundred year of
1:14:43

Speaker 3: It's that cabin the show, all right, Kevin mccallaugh.
1:17:06
Speaker 1: Glad to have you with us.
1:17:07
Speaker 3: I want to say thank you again, by the way,
1:17:09
Speaker 3: to all my new sponsors. We've got such We've got
1:17:13
Speaker 3: such a great opportunity for you to understand the beauty
1:17:20
Speaker 3: of what we're gonna do as a community for one
1:17:23
Speaker 3: another in the days and weeks to come. But last
1:17:26
Speaker 3: week we had some new sponsors jump on to the bandwagon,
1:17:30
Speaker 3: chief among them, and I got an email from somebody
1:17:32
Speaker 3: asking for the U r L again. Dominion dot Chat,
1:17:38
Speaker 3: not the Dominion, not something else, Dominion, just plain old
1:17:41
Speaker 3: dominion dot Chat. It's a christ centric, Bible centric, God centric,
1:17:50
Speaker 3: complete AI learning model. You can learn how to change
1:17:53
Speaker 3: your oil, you can learn about global economics, you can
1:17:58
Speaker 3: you can get it to help you proofread something you're
1:18:01
Speaker 3: working on, or to help you with a project. Everything
1:18:04
Speaker 3: that you use AI for currently you can do. If
1:18:07
Speaker 3: you're a Chat, GPT or claud user, Dominion dot chat
1:18:11
Speaker 3: will help you just as much. But the problem with
1:18:14
Speaker 3: those other models is that they try to take an
1:18:16
Speaker 3: assessment of you while you're using them, and then they
1:18:19
Speaker 3: feed you back what they think you want to hear.
1:18:22
Speaker 3: So if you ask them like a moral question like
1:18:24
Speaker 3: should should I betray my family and cheat on my spouse,
1:18:27
Speaker 3: It'll be something much more generic than what dominion dot
1:18:31
Speaker 3: chat will tell you. It will actually give good advice.
1:18:35
Speaker 3: If you're struggling with something, it will point you in
1:18:37
Speaker 3: a biblical direction. And I'm just really excited to have
1:18:40
Speaker 3: them on board Dominion dot chat and be listening. Soon
1:18:44
Speaker 3: we're going to give away one hundred I think it's
1:18:46
Speaker 3: one hundred memberships to Dominion dot Chat in the very
1:18:50
Speaker 3: near future. I also want to say thank you to
1:18:52
Speaker 3: DFW Direct Insurance. They helped me save over four hundred
1:18:56
Speaker 3: dollars a month on the health insurance from my family.
1:18:59
Speaker 3: What can they do for you? Go and see for yourself.
1:19:03

1:19:10
Speaker 3: policy possible. And if he can't help you, he'll tell
1:19:12
Speaker 3: you that. But they're licensed in all fifty states. I
1:19:15
Speaker 3: also want you to know that on PhD Weight Loss,

1:19:20
Speaker 3: third week and I am down over twelve pounds in

Speaker 3: three weeks. It's a slow, but steady and healthy way
1:19:30
Speaker 3: to lose weight and I am literally never hungry. They
1:19:33
Speaker 3: have me eating every two and a half hours during
1:19:36

Speaker 3: loving having them as part of it. Also want to
1:20:18
Speaker 3: give you some good news to end. I like to
1:20:20
Speaker 3: have good news to end the show with from time
1:20:22
Speaker 3: to time, and this comes from China. Pastor Ezra Jin
1:20:26
Speaker 3: of the unregistered Zion Church was detained in China in
1:20:31
Speaker 3: October of last year. He was guilty only of preaching
1:20:34
Speaker 3: the Christian Gospel, and he has been released after an
1:20:38
Speaker 3: appeal from President Trump. Pastor Ezra Jin, also known as
1:20:42
Speaker 3: j Mingri, was detained last October along with twenty members
1:20:47
Speaker 3: of his unregistered Zion Church when authorities intensified long standing
1:20:51
Speaker 3: efforts to reign in underground religious networks in mainland China.
1:20:55
Speaker 3: Jin arrived in Los Angeles late on Friday. According to
1:20:58
Speaker 3: his daughter, Grace Jin Drexel, his detention had prompted an
1:21:03
Speaker 3: immediate backlash from Washington, and his release could help offer
1:21:07
Speaker 3: a salve to US China relations, strained by a host
1:21:10
Speaker 3: of differences over issues including trade and security. But some
1:21:14
Speaker 3: good news for the Jin family Pastor Jen. Pastor Ezra
1:21:18
Speaker 3: Jen is free and now with his daughter in the
1:21:22
Speaker 3: United States, and we're just so grateful to God that
1:21:26
Speaker 3: that is in fact the case. Kelvin McCollough, I hope
