• 2:04
  SPEAKER_03: So I'm trying to figure out where to start.
• 2:06
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, honestly, like you were talking about your relationship with Jesus.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_02: I would like to kind of explore that.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, man, for sure.
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_01: So I'll just start from the beginning.
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_01: I believed in Jesus when I was a kid, you know.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_01: I grew up Catholic, I went to most precious blood, and then like middle school came and so did you know.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_01: I could say that at that point I believed I was atheist and I didn't believe in God, and then almost died at the beach, almost drowned at the beach, and then I was like, okay, I believe in Jesus.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_01: Because my friend, in uh when I went to the beach with my friend, he's like, Hey, let's go to church, and I'm like, nah, I ain't going to church, let's go to the beach.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_01: So I went to the beach, almost drowned, and then I was like, Okay, I believe in Jesus again.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_01: Wow You know, I believed in Jesus, and then uh just didn't go to church, didn't go to church, and then I met my wife in 2009, and then um when we decided to get married, I was like, dude, I want to get married at a church.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: I was like, I'll just pick out a church so they could do the ceremony.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_01: And I just picked out this random church, and it was a uh a church of Christ, and I was like, all right, let's get married here.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, hey, I went to the preacher, how much is it?
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_01: You know, how much is it gonna me to marry?
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, I want you to do marriage counseling.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_01: So in that sense, I went there.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_01: Um the way I was understood, and I don't know because Church of Christ is not very like there's all different kinds of churches of Christ, so just but the way I learned is like you don't know your salvation, and we got married there and we got baptized.
• 3:33
  SPEAKER_01: And the day we got baptized, we came out and it was like a sunny day, and we saw a rainbow.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_01: So that was a little miracle that we saw.

  SPEAKER_01: My mom's dead, so I won't say too bad stuff about it.

  SPEAKER_01: But pretty much I started going to college, and then I um uh my mom decided to stop paying once my wife got pregnant.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so then that was it.

  SPEAKER_01: But she made so much money it messed up the fast fo, you know, to get financial aid.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_01: And I and to be the honest truth, I was like, I'm not gonna get a loan, you know, and I was just dumb.

  SPEAKER_01: I should have kept going.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_01: I was making good grades, you know.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_01: What what what would you have studied?
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_01: At that point, I wanted to be a nurse.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_01: Now, if I could go back in time, I'd want to be a lawyer.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I remember you talking about being a nurse.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_03: That's awesome.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_03: Didn't were you getting into programming, or you're a friend of yours was getting into programming?
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_01: I messed around with programming, and I remember you saying you're messing around with programming.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_01: But my cousin, yeah, he would mess around with programming.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_01: He's so smart, you know, with programming.
• 6:36
  SPEAKER_03: Why would you be so why'd you why would you just why would you why did you change why did you change from thinking of you would be a nurse to a lawyer?
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_01: Because lawyers run the world.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_01: The law, yeah.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_01: I guess.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_01: I don't not that I want to run the world per se, but it'd be good to not let somebody run my world.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, for sure, man.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_02: That's a good I like that.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it seems like there's a lot of that going on too.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I mean?
• 7:01
  SPEAKER_03: Especially, I guess, in our society, you would say that.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_03: Um you can get into the argument like that that the government wants to try try to run our lives, you know what I mean, and stuff like that.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_03: Um definitely.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_03: Until we actually say something or do something?
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_03: If we could even do something at that point, you know.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: How many people here know how to make fires?
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_01: How many people here know how to I mean from scratch.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no, but I'm saying in the the general thing of it, how many people know how to change their oil?
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_01: How many people know how many people know when it's time when it's time to plant kale and what when it's time to plant corn?
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_03: Crazy, bro.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_01: Who knows the antibiotics you need to give a cow for it to live in case it starts to die, because if it dies, you die.
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_03: So, like self-sustaining, being able to sustain or I guess live.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, uh, self-sustaining, right?
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_01: That's why the revolutionary war and the civil war was so it was a uh the ability for that civil war and that revolutionary war to happen was because people lived off the land.
• 8:08
  SPEAKER_01: They weren't looking to the government or you know, to feed them, but not just that, they didn't have central supermarkets to go to.
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_01: Like, if we if if corpus didn't have food, like you'd be in trouble.
• 8:20
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you'd be in trouble.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_01: Like most people would be in trouble.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they would go fishing and eat gaff tops for a little bit, but then they might go away, you know, with the amount of people that are here.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_03: We talked one time, and and I remember you saying, like, dude, every time the government puts its hand in whatever industry or whatever, they mess it up.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, exactly.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_01: That goes to the Department of Education for loans for houses, for everything they touch.
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, literally, we send our money out for through taxes to the federal government.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_01: The federal government, in turn, through the department of education, bequeaths money onto the school system.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_01: So then you're giving the federal whoever owns the money holds the power.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_01: And if you let the federal government hold the power, they hold the power to your education, they hold the power to our food, they hold all these powers.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_01: It that's what has to happen is we have to take away the federal government taking control of our money where they're the ones that are distributing it through grants and stuff like that.
• 9:15
  SPEAKER_01: Like just like the school, the Title IX program for the school, they're like, Oh, the kids get free lunch.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_01: That drives me nuts because it's not free.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_01: Somebody's paying for it.
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, like for like uh food stamps or uh what section eight or whatever.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_03: I guess you could get into all that stuff too, right?
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_03: Because yeah, that money's gotta come from somewhere.
• 9:33
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's not free.
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, people use this word free a lot.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_02: I hear it a lot, especially on a certain side.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_02: But it's nothing is free, nothing can be free, nothing can be forgiven.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_02: Somebody has to pay it.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_02: It's gotta come from somewhere.
• 9:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, do you do you so when the government was created?
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_03: Do you like do you how you know when it what it whenever they created the government?
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_03: I don't even know the year.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_01: You probably know that then I'd the United States government or governments in general.
• 9:58
  SPEAKER_03: Well, okay, so the government, the way it's uh taking control of certain industries or whatever, do you think the original government when they created it, they created it to be like that?
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_02: Absolutely not.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_03: Why not?
• 10:11
  SPEAKER_02: Because it's that's the way it was written, everything's separated.
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_02: It's the government wasn't meant to be taking control over, it was just meant to be there to to help uh to help with what was needed.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_02: Um but now that now that everything's every everything wants to be socialist, like everybody wants everybody to have everything.
• 10:29
  SPEAKER_02: It doesn't work that way.
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_02: The government can't have its hand in everything because the government doesn't have everybody's best interest at heart.
• 10:35
  SPEAKER_03: Whose interests do they have, do you think?
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_03: Their own.
• 10:38
  SPEAKER_03: The people that are in power.
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, that's crazy, bro.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, when I to whenever I talk to you, Ed, I always we always go into turn into that area, so it's always interesting to me, man.
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_03: Uh because I pay taxes, you know what I mean?
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_03: And I and then I see, like, for instance, we're talking about school shootings, you know what I mean?
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, how and that that can get into the gun argument, you know what I mean, as far as uh because sometimes they want to take away our guns and stuff like that, and then at the same time we have school shootings, it's like well, what well, what do we do?
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I mean?
• 11:10
  SPEAKER_03: What's the solution?
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying?
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 11:13
  SPEAKER_02: Teach firearms in school.
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_03: Do you teach your kids about fire about firearms?
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 11:19
  SPEAKER_03: It's like firearm safety and stuff like that.
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I I hear the argument a lot.
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_02: Um, people are saying, you know, um, what kind of gun is a safe gun around kids?
• 11:27
  SPEAKER_02: Well, your kids should know what a gun is and how it operates at all times.
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_02: So I would say as young as you can get them to understand that, that they need to know.
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_02: Um, because if you keep them away from it, well, was like if you don't know something, you're gonna be curious about it.
• 11:40
  SPEAKER_02: And if you don't know anything about it, the gun is the most dangerous thing they can have if they've never had any experience with it.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_03: No, no, and then once they get their hands on it, damn, that's crazy, bro.
• 11:48
  SPEAKER_01: I think the main thing with the school shootings is every one of them, no matter what, comes down to mental health.
• 11:55
  SPEAKER_02: A lot of them, well, yeah, well, yeah.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_01: There was not one where, like, oh, that guy wasn't crazy, he was doing a political thing or he's being a terrorist.
• 12:00
  SPEAKER_01: No, they were all having mental problems.
• 12:04
  SPEAKER_01: And that's I don't know if this is true, but I've heard that like before Reagan was president, we had a lot of sanitariums throughout the country, and there was a certain point where he was cutting it, the spending, and stuff, and they let out all those people in the sanitariums, and that's to this day, you know, like there's just not enough mental health that needs the mental health like assistance.
• 12:25
  SPEAKER_01: And if you want me to call a socialist for that, I'd be willing to pay for some mental health assistance for people.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_01: That'd be something we could really look to, and you know, just community too.
• 12:35
  SPEAKER_01: Because if you look at us now, how often you talk to your neighbor?
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_02: I talk to my neighbors.
• 12:41
  SPEAKER_01: You talk to your neighbors, that's good.
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_01: Like in my neighborhood, we don't I don't really talk to my neighbors.
• 12:45
  SPEAKER_01: Very little.
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_01: Like our circles have gotten smaller and smaller and smaller.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_01: My kids go outside and play, dude.
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_01: There's no other kids outside playing.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_01: There's no community anymore.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely not.
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_01: We're so separated from that community thing.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_01: Now, if there's a community of these people on this whole street and they know there's this one kid that's having mental problems, there's more of a chance of that kid getting help.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_01: There's more chances of that kid getting support.
• 13:09
  SPEAKER_01: The kids don't have support.
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_01: He's got his mom, his dad, and his brother that doesn't like him.
• 13:13
  SPEAKER_01: You know?
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_03: So how do we uh so how do we, as a society, I guess, uh uh counter bullying, not like say in school or in uh you know.
• 13:24
  SPEAKER_01: Bullying was kind of a good thing.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_03: You think so?
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, was it?
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_01: Because it just teaches kids to go through adversity if they don't have adversity.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I don't want to sound weird, but like I was bullied and I think it was a good thing because eventually I stood up and beat somebody up.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_01: And if you keep a kid from getting bullied, like if they ever start getting bullied in life, you know, they won't know what to do when they're 21, 22 in the world getting bullied.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_01: If you stop them from getting bullied at school, they're gonna get bullied in the workplace.
• 13:51
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think having a soft, a soft world prevents what's gonna happen after they get out of school.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_02: Like their their world when they're in school is supposed to be like this soft experience, nobody's bullying, nobody's whatever.
• 14:03
  SPEAKER_02: But once they get outside of school, who's gonna control that?
• 14:05
  SPEAKER_02: It's it's gonna be you're gonna see it again.
• 14:07
  SPEAKER_02: So if you don't experience it when you're younger, you're not gonna know what what's going on after you get out of school.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_03: So as parents, you teach your kids how to if you're being bullied, is how you respond.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_02: Well, the rule in our house is if you're if you're being bullied, you need to say something to a teacher.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_02: That's number one because the teacher needs to be aware of it.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_02: If it happens again after the teacher's aware, you have the right to do whatever you need to do to defend yourself.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_01: Same here.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_02: Because if my if my kid cracks another kid in the face and they come to me and they say, We don't know what why he did that or what uh this, this, and that, and I'm gonna say, Well, did he tell y'all he was being bullied by that kid?
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_02: And they're gonna say either one of two things, yes or no.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_02: And my son knows, or my kids know, you know, you need to make sure that the teacher is aware that something is going on before you hit somebody.
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you know what I mean?
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_03: That that sure makes me think about the importance of having a father in a home.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_03: Uh you know what I mean, and it sucks that our homes are are broken, not ours, but like, you know, there's a lot of broken homes out there with moms here, dads there, whatever.
• 15:11
  SPEAKER_02: Look at the benefits they get for not having a dad in the home.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_02: What do you mean?
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_02: You get, I mean, you get what uh section eight housing, you get food stamps, you get uh all kinds of uh benefits from the government for not having a father in the home.
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_02: So why would they want to have a father in the home?
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_01: Not only that, you get you get you get your child support.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and you get child support on top of all that.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_01: Yo, and they get to they get to take away the man out of the household and have a woman household that gets paid money to raise children without the father, so it's incentivized, and not only that, the government makes money off every payment that's made through the child support system, so it's an incentivizing the government level too.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_03: Wow, I didn't think about it at that level.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_03: Yep, that's that's so crazy, man.
• 15:58
  SPEAKER_02: So they purposefully, so I guess you can go as far as to say that women purposefully have kids, but I would say a lot of the culture is towards that, you know, uh I can have a baby daddy and I can live on my own, and he's gonna have to pay me child support.
• 16:18
  SPEAKER_02: Instead of saying, why don't I settle down with the man that I love, you know, raise a child together, have a home.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_02: It's that's not that's not a view that's very common these days.
• 16:28
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_03: So you think that's so that's that's the view that you would probably take for families or people I guess that are choosing.
• 16:37
  SPEAKER_02: Having a nuclear household is the is the foundation of having of raising kids nuclear household properly.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_03: What does that mean?
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_03: Nuclear household.
• 16:45
  SPEAKER_02: Uh father and wife, wife, wife, whatever family together.
• 16:48
  SPEAKER_02: Father and mom.
• 16:49
  SPEAKER_03: I gotcha.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_03: I gotcha.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_03: What do you think about that, Ed?
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_01: I'm 100% on board, but yeah.
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_01: I was going to church the other day and they were talking about like the devil, like he goes, he came into the house through the woman.
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_01: And it's like, okay, the women are the they're more I don't know if they're more likely to divorce, but they are, I'm thinking.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_01: Young Jamie.
• 17:08
  SPEAKER_01: No, I'm just kidding.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_03: We're probably gonna be canceled for you just saying that.
• 17:11
  SPEAKER_01: But it I mean that's but the the devil always comes through the woman, and then if you look at the relationship that we have with God, it's like the son of God.
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_01: You're the children of God.
• 17:20
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's a family, the devil's attacking the family here, attacking the family spiritually, all that.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_02: Bro, think of the story of Adam and Eve.
• 17:26
  SPEAKER_02: Who did the devil go to?
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, the yeah, so the woman was tempted first, she ate the fruit and then gave it to her husband, right?
• 17:33
  SPEAKER_03: Yep, or uh Adam.
• 17:35
  SPEAKER_01: That gave me the chills in church when he said that.
• 17:37
  SPEAKER_01: I looked at my wife, I was like, We good like, are you all right?
• 17:40
  SPEAKER_01: Because I need to know.
• 17:42
  SPEAKER_01: Because but I have a I mean, I have a strong woman and she's believed in God the whole time.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_01: So and she's talking, she's like the other day.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_01: I was like, Man, I usually always just say, Our father who are in heaven, how it be the name of the Catholic in me, you know, or saying, Dear Heavenly Father, like the way I'd pray to God.
• 17:57
  SPEAKER_01: And I was like, Man, I've just started just to be like, Hey God, like I'm doing this and this, I need an answer for this pretty soon, please.
• 18:03
  SPEAKER_01: And I always say, You haven't been talking to God like that?
• 18:05
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, No, I've been all proper, you know.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_01: Like Paternosa Queus and kind of all Latin prayer and stuff, you know.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_01: So I've never had that, like just you know, just talking to God, you know, and that's it.
• 18:16
  SPEAKER_01: She's like, I've been doing that for years.
• 18:18
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, uh I had a question here about that.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_03: So I just how does your faith guide your decisions and perspectives on various aspects of life?
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_03: Uh or in what ways do your Christian beliefs influence your stance on issues uh that I guess today that are going on today?
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_01: I would say the Bible is architecture to my life, like everything from there, like just reading it in black and white, and then just praying to God, and sometimes God uh, you know, will talk to me, you know, or you know, he gives me little nudges here and there, you know.
• 18:53
  SPEAKER_01: Like I had a friend the other day, like I have a friend, he doesn't believe in God, and I just always mess with him.
• 18:58
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I send him a TikTok video where it's like a dude like looking down a street, and this person just pops up Have you heard about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?
• 19:05
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like that with him.
• 19:06
  SPEAKER_01: And he's like, I was like, Man, come to church with me, come to church with me.
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_01: And I was like, I was like, come.
• 19:11
  SPEAKER_01: He's like, nah, I don't want to.
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, all right, cool, man.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_01: I just want to mess with me.
• 19:14
  SPEAKER_01: Hey, you ready to come to see Jesus?
• 19:15
  SPEAKER_01: Just messing, just playing with him, right?
• 19:17
  SPEAKER_01: And the other day he's like, you know what, man?
• 19:19
  SPEAKER_01: If you buy me this bottle of whiskey, I'll go to church with you.
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_01: This is the weird part.
• 19:24
  SPEAKER_01: I brought my daughter to get her nails done over at the Walmart in Saratoga, and I'm walking and I'll look to my right, guess what's there?
• 19:30
  SPEAKER_01: WB liquor.
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_01: As I'm on the phone with him, I literally walk in the door, I'm like, All right, what do you want?
• 19:34
  SPEAKER_01: Howlerhead, what do you want?
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 19:37
  SPEAKER_01: He's like facetiming me because he doesn't believe this is happening.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I literally walked in, and he's the one who brought up the liquor or the whiskey.
• 19:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and he I FaceTime and he's like, Oh, let me get it.
• 19:46
  SPEAKER_01: I was like showing him, like, let me see all these ones.
• 19:48
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, he's seriously gonna let me buy him a bottle of whiskey to go to church.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, I will.
• 19:52
  SPEAKER_01: And he's like, Give me that one with the blue label.
• 19:54
  SPEAKER_01: I pick it up, I look at it.
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_01: Guess what the name of it is?
• 19:57
  SPEAKER_01: Heaven's Hill.
• 20:00
  SPEAKER_01: So he's coming to church tomorrow.
• 20:03
  SPEAKER_01: Awesome.
• 20:03
  SPEAKER_01: That's amazing.
• 20:05
  SPEAKER_01: Just to watch God work, it's like I didn't know it was gonna be like this, you know.
• 20:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and then you tell people, like, yeah, it's just a coincidence.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_01: Like, dude, I think that was not in a coincidence.
• 20:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you saw we were I had um a lady on not too long ago, La Brujita.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_03: I saw that.
• 20:21
  SPEAKER_03: I was like, ooh, oh you saw, yeah.
• 20:22
  SPEAKER_03: So she was talking about how uh like church church folk uh well, I guess that they'll stab you in the back, you know what I mean?
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_03: They're uh the like that culture, like because you like they call them Bible thumpers or whatever, and now it's like I understand that because I used to be that like oh churcher church churcher, you know what I mean?
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_03: Like that, have have the lingo do all that stuff or whatever.
• 20:45
  SPEAKER_03: And I I I you know I read the Bible and stuff like that.
• 20:48
  SPEAKER_03: I don't like to call myself a Christian, I like to for people to call me that because I want my life to speak that.
• 20:53
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, do you do you feel like there's there's that um type of church culture out there to where they're just like they're only accepting of certain people or they're hip hypocrites or whatever?
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_03: How do you how do you feel about that?
• 21:05
  SPEAKER_01: I think it's the same thing that happened to Jesus when he was there with the prostitutes and sinners and tax collectors.
• 21:11
  SPEAKER_01: And the rabbis came to him and were like, hey, you're sitting with all these sinners, what are you doing?
• 21:15
  SPEAKER_01: It's the same thing when you're going to church, you think you're gonna find all good people?
• 21:19
  SPEAKER_01: No, you're gonna need you're gonna go for the people that need God the most.
• 21:24
  SPEAKER_01: And and like our my pastor always says, this is a gymnasium for the healthy and a hospital for the sick.
• 21:30
  SPEAKER_01: And we have to remember that.
• 21:33
  SPEAKER_01: You know.
• 21:34
  SPEAKER_02: I think people find any reason to not go to church, church to not believe.
• 21:39
  SPEAKER_02: And they're like, Oh, the believers are this, or I've been to a church and this happened to me, and it's like cool, go to a different church.
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I mean don't stop some some person from from you believing in Jesus because that that person is probably never gonna even remember who you are, for one.
• 21:54
  SPEAKER_02: But it it's you can't let people decide whether or not you get to have that relationship, you have to decide.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_03: Do you so do you have to go to church to have a relationship?
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_02: I don't bl I don't think so, but it it does also say that you know you should have fellowship with other believers.
• 22:13
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think you have to go to church.
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's good to go to church.
• 22:17
  SPEAKER_02: That way you can at least meet people who are like-minded and that you can have conversations with, and who knows, maybe you can maybe you can meet your soulmate there.
• 22:24
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you know, you never know.
• 22:26
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but I think the church is necessary, I just don't think it's mandatory.
• 22:31
  SPEAKER_03: I I like that point where you say you can meet people that are like-minded like you, because there there could be people that are definitely not believers, but they still go to the church, you know what I mean, for whatever reason, like you know, they could be looking to just hook up with a woman or something like that, or a woman could be just looking to hook up with a man, you know what I mean?
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_03: Uh so I like that you bring that up, and I think that's finding like-minded people helps uh your Christian woman.
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_03: That's awesome, man.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_03: Well, fellas, what do you think we should go to next?
• 23:00
  SPEAKER_03: Appreciate you guys.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_01: This is fun.
• 23:04
  SPEAKER_03: Uh so you you went to King, uh, you went to college, so you started truck driving, right?
• 23:09
  SPEAKER_03: Uh when did you start truck driving?
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_01: Um I started truck driving in 2012.
• 23:17
  SPEAKER_01: No, 2013, July 2013.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_01: Oh.
• 23:20
  SPEAKER_01: I I started uh uh my friend's dad, Adam Ramirez Sr.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna drop his name because he's had a big moment because I was just out of high school, I went over to his house, we're all drinking beer, doing stump stuff.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and he was sitting there.
• 23:33
  SPEAKER_01: He wasn't he he doesn't drink, but he was like, Hey son, if you don't know what you're gonna do when you grow up and you ain't gonna go to college, you need to be a truck driver.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_00: He told me that, and I was like, Okay, all right.
• 23:45
  SPEAKER_01: So I decided to be a truck driver, and I I went to this company where they trained you and then you had to work for him a certain amount of months.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't finish because it was 17 cents a mile.
• 23:53
  SPEAKER_01: To put that in perspective, that is like$450 a week if you drive 3,000 miles.
• 23:59
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, wow.
• 24:00
  SPEAKER_01: So I just just truck drive a man, but man, I became a man out there just seeing the world and man being so hungry because I was just in it$450 was what I'm making a week, and I was just sending money back to my wife to make sure they could eat and just figuring out how to make tomato soup with ketchup and salt and pepper.

• 24:28
  SPEAKER_01: I saw the whole country, I was like, okay, Texas is different.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_01: Like if you go to a whole country and you're like, okay, this is this, this is that.
• 24:35
  SPEAKER_01: Illinois kind of feels like Indiana, but when you're in Texas, it's just like there's different people here, and it's just a different feel.
• 24:43
  SPEAKER_01: Because it's the only republic.
• 24:45
  SPEAKER_03: So you're not gonna- Are you gonna move out of Texas?

• 24:52
  SPEAKER_01: I wish they could bring the mountains and the hiking down here, and I wish they could bring all the public lands down here.
• 24:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because there's so much public lands and so many things to do up there.
• 25:01
  SPEAKER_01: But I'll trade uh I'm not gonna say nothing that bad, but I'm gonna I'm gonna say like I'll live in Texas because the people are way better.
• 25:08
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, crazy wrong.
• 25:10
  SPEAKER_01: Way better people.
• 25:11
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's awesome, man.
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_03: Uh I think I I was in California.

• 25:35
  SPEAKER_03: I like Texas, man.
• 25:37
  SPEAKER_03: I like the fact that you can actually own, you know, have have a gun on your person because there's some states that you can't have guns, like, right?
• 25:44
  SPEAKER_03: They're like illegal or whatever.
• 25:46
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, it's per state, sure.
• 25:49
  SPEAKER_02: But I mean, federally.
• 25:51
  SPEAKER_02: The Constitution says I can have a gun if I want one.
• 25:55
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 25:56
  SPEAKER_01: So that's the ATF and FBI.
• 25:58
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but they don't believe that.
• 26:00
  SPEAKER_01: It's like that guy from that show parks and rec, he's like digging in the park, he's like, Where's your permit?
• 26:05
  SPEAKER_01: And he hands them a paper, and the guy opens it up, he's like, This is the Constitution.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 26:12
  SPEAKER_01: Um, they don't really go back to that no more.
• 26:15
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it is kind of crazy, like all the gun stuff that's going on.
• 26:18
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, yeah.
• 26:20
  SPEAKER_03: We could talk about guns all day, but I mean So the original, so the the original was in the men is Second Amendment, right?
• 26:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 26:28
  SPEAKER_03: Keep uh right and keep what was it what it was.
• 26:30
  SPEAKER_02: The right to bear arms uh and formal militia against a tyrannical government.
• 26:34
  SPEAKER_03: So that was from from tyrannical government, meaning like Britain or whoever all whoever was.
• 26:39
  SPEAKER_02: It's anybody, any form of government that's trying to trying to rain tyranny on its people.
• 26:43
  SPEAKER_03: So that was the original uh purpose for that second amendment.
• 26:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 26:47
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because that's what started the war.
• 26:50
  SPEAKER_01: They were taking the guns from the people, bringing them to the armory.
• 26:52
  SPEAKER_01: It happened twice.
• 26:53
  SPEAKER_01: Happened the Revolutionary War, they took their guns and they said you couldn't have guns.
• 26:57
  SPEAKER_01: And then it sparked the war.
• 27:00
  SPEAKER_01: And not just that, the other, the other amendments in the constitution, like you shall not have to quarter soldiers.
• 27:05
  SPEAKER_01: They were making soldiers go into people's houses and then them Whoa, yeah.
• 27:09
  SPEAKER_01: So and the same thing happened in the Civil War.
• 27:11
  SPEAKER_01: They took guns away, and then went after they went after an armory that was part of a school, I think it was.
• 27:16
  SPEAKER_01: It was like a military school, and that's what sparked the uh civil war, too.
• 27:20
  SPEAKER_02: Every every major um catastrophe, I could say, is started with somebody taking away the guns.
• 27:28
  SPEAKER_02: You know, you look at Stalin, you look at uh the Nazis, everybody just started taking away guns, and then they were like, it's for your safety, don't worry about it.
• 27:34
  SPEAKER_02: And then look what happens.
• 27:35
  SPEAKER_02: So the government knew, you know, before even all that, they were like, We're gonna make a law that says you you can't take the way your we can't take away the people's guns, and that right shall not be infringed.
• 27:45
  SPEAKER_02: It even says it there.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_03: So that's crazy, bro.
• 27:48

• 28:25
  SPEAKER_02: I've been wanting to go too.
• 28:26
  SPEAKER_02: I haven't gone in a very, very long time.
• 28:28
  SPEAKER_02: Do you still have access to where you used to go or no?
• 28:30
  SPEAKER_02: No, that was my grandpa's, like, he would rent out someplace in Benavidez, I think, or somewhere out there.
• 28:35
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 28:35
  SPEAKER_02: And we would go, but um, no, I've been wanting to go.
• 28:38
  SPEAKER_02: I've been wanting to find people to go with, but nobody ever's interested.
• 28:41
  SPEAKER_03: I'll go with you, bro.
• 28:41
  SPEAKER_03: I've been I've really been interested.
• 28:43
  SPEAKER_03: I I've actually never been.
• 28:44
  SPEAKER_03: Uh I wouldn't.
• 28:45
  SPEAKER_03: It's cool, man.
• 28:46
  SPEAKER_02: It's cool.
• 28:46
  SPEAKER_02: It's the nights are cold and it's quiet and you can see all the stars, and then you get out there and you're just in the blind or wherever you're at.
• 28:52
  SPEAKER_02: It sounds fun.
• 28:53
  SPEAKER_02: It's just quiet and peaceful.
• 28:55
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's awesome, bro.
• 28:57
  SPEAKER_03: So you so y'all shoot you shoot deer?
• 28:59
  SPEAKER_03: What what else you shoot?
• 29:00
  SPEAKER_02: Uh I mean, that's really all we would we would hunt.
• 29:03
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, you'll see the hogs out there.
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_02: You can uh whatever you can get your hands on.
• 29:07
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 29:08
  SPEAKER_03: So what do you guys what do you guys think about um like uh because we were talking about chat GPT earlier.
• 29:12
  SPEAKER_03: What do y'all think about AI?
• 29:14
  SPEAKER_02: It's gonna take over, man.
• 29:15
  SPEAKER_03: Can you take over?
• 29:16
  SPEAKER_03: What do you mean?
• 29:18
  SPEAKER_02: I think we're in a very delicate age when it comes to AI, and it can go one of two ways.
• 29:26
  SPEAKER_02: We can either go the Terminator route, or we can go uh or the matrix route, I guess you would say, or we can really adopt it and make it part of our society and actually use it for good.
• 29:37
  SPEAKER_02: That's just my thought.
• 29:38
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 29:38
  SPEAKER_02: It can go anywhere.
• 29:39
  SPEAKER_02: We dig it.
• 29:41
  SPEAKER_01: I think it is an amazing tool.
• 29:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, that has amazing repercussions if it's used wrong.
• 29:47
  SPEAKER_01: Correct.
• 29:49
  SPEAKER_01: So I mean, just you saying you use it on the podcast, I use it for myself, for my work too.
• 29:56
  SPEAKER_01: And I've used it to do things that would take time and it gives you more time.
• 30:00
  SPEAKER_01: And I think that's anything with technology is always done.
• 30:03
  SPEAKER_01: You find the shovel, you don't gotta do it with your hands.
• 30:05
  SPEAKER_01: You get done with things faster, you have more times to th more time to think, more time to be creative.
• 30:10
  SPEAKER_01: And that's with every technology that's come along.
• 30:12
  SPEAKER_01: And this one is just I feel like more profound than the previous technologies that have come since the internet.
• 30:20
  SPEAKER_03: So don't like don't depend on it, but but use it.
• 30:23
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, don't depend.
• 30:24
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I wouldn't depend on it.
• 30:26
  SPEAKER_01: I'd I'd always tell people to always know how to know antibiotic, you know, uh regimens for yourself and know how to uh plant food and know how to have a book at least in your in your in your house that will teach you how.
• 30:42
  SPEAKER_01: You know, that's one of the things that scares me the most is losing physical copies of things.
• 30:46
  SPEAKER_01: Because if you could lose physical copies and all the physical copies are becoming less available, I think that's very dangerous because once you have it online, who's gonna keep a guy from editing things?
• 30:58
  SPEAKER_01: Just like the Chinese have edited the Bible.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 31:02
  SPEAKER_02: I mean you look at um well on that point, like North Korea, like they can't see stuff from anywhere else.
• 31:07
  SPEAKER_02: They think like North Korea is like all can can inc included in itself.
• 31:12
  SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
• 31:12
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 31:13
  SPEAKER_02: So then uh man, I forgot.
• 31:15
  SPEAKER_02: I had another point that I was gonna get to there, but I forgot.
• 31:17
  SPEAKER_03: You mean we were talking last time, you mentioning uh how it's growing exponentially faster the tech technology-wise, as a because when uh it was growing slower and then it eventually it started.
• 31:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so over the I mean over the past decade, we've had more technological advancements than we've ever had in the previous 2,000 years.
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_02: Like the the the pace at which we're we're coming out with technology is is is rapidly increasing.
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_02: Um so would you all drive a Tesla?
• 31:51
  SPEAKER_02: I would drive a Tesla.
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
• 31:53
  SPEAKER_02: I would I drive it or would I own would you own one?
• 31:55
  SPEAKER_02: No, I wouldn't own one.
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_02: No?
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_02: No, I can't I can't work on a Tesla, I can work on my own car.
• 32:02
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 32:03
  SPEAKER_03: So that so if it turned to like electric cars, then uh mechanics would be obsolete?
• 32:09
  SPEAKER_02: Well, no, because you still need mechanics to work on those electric vehicles.
• 32:13
  SPEAKER_02: But think about it this way if the government says that you've driven too much today, I'm gonna turn off your car, they can turn off your car.
• 32:19
  SPEAKER_02: If they say, um, you know, you've driven too much, if they send me a letter saying you've driven too much in my in my diesel, I'm gonna be like, okay, I'm gonna keep driving.
• 32:28
  SPEAKER_01: But you gotta understand, like everything that man makes, man could mess with.
• 32:34
  SPEAKER_01: So if they make it, oh, you can't do this, there's ways to spoof IP addresses and and certain markers that say, Oh, this car, there's so many things that we could do on our level.
• 32:44
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, down where everything's happening.
• 32:46
  SPEAKER_01: They can't put their fingers on wires.
• 32:48
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:52
  SPEAKER_03: I'm trying to find a conversation to get to, but it seems like every time I talk about something, y'all, we always come to like that government conversation with y'all.
• 32:59
  SPEAKER_01: Uh y'all talking about that stuff.
• 33:02
  SPEAKER_01: I'm cool with the government.
• 33:03
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I'm just I'm just um I I just want to just raise my kids in peace, you know.
• 33:08
  SPEAKER_01: Now I want to create, you know, great kids that understand what's going on in the world.
• 33:13
  SPEAKER_01: You know, like understand because you know, government becoming corrupt, it's because man's corrupt.
• 33:19
  SPEAKER_01: It's not the government that's corrupt, it's a man in the government that's corrupt.
• 33:22
  SPEAKER_01: Because if if a man followed the constitution and the laws that are on the books, then then everything would be good.
• 33:28
  SPEAKER_01: It's not really government, it's man.
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_02: I don't like the government having their hands in everything.
• 33:33
  SPEAKER_02: Especially what because it's not up to them what I do with my own money.
• 33:37
  SPEAKER_03: You want to make your own decision, you don't want them to have to interfere with that.
• 33:41
  SPEAKER_02: If I want to go buy land and go plant crops on that land and go do all this, it shouldn't be it shouldn't be on them to know that.
• 33:48
  SPEAKER_01: Well, they're gonna know everything, man.
• 33:50
  SPEAKER_02: But that's but that's what I'm saying.
• 33:51
  SPEAKER_02: I don't want the government, I don't want the government to overreach when they're they're already overreaching, anyways.
• 33:55
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 33:56
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's crazy, bro.
• 33:57
  SPEAKER_01: You never you never stop it.
• 33:59
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it'll never it'll it it's too it's too far gone, it'll never stop.
• 34:02
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_03: So would you say that you oh that you always re vote a certain way?
• 34:07
  SPEAKER_03: Uh as far as like red, blue, whatever you call it, or do you vote on depending on what the guy's talking about, or you know what I mean?
• 34:16
  SPEAKER_03: Like cause uh I don't know, say there's uh there's a democratic dude talking about something that you've that you uh your values align with.
• 34:26
  SPEAKER_03: Would you vote for that guy?
• 34:28
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying, or do you strictly say, nah, I'm just always gonna vote red?
• 34:32
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying?
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, man.
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_01: Um I think Robert F.
• 34:35
  SPEAKER_01: Kennedy had a lot of good things to say.
• 34:37
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 34:38
  SPEAKER_01: I do.
• 34:39
  SPEAKER_01: Um I couldn't I couldn't think of one exactly right now, except that you know, like all the stuff they're putting in our food.
• 34:48
  SPEAKER_01: I know he's really against that, against the vaccine and forcing people to get vaccines as far as the coronavirus vaccine.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_01: I really agreed with him on that, but there's certain things I don't agree with him on.
• 34:57
  SPEAKER_01: So, but I think he's he's actually like, I'm like, oh, this is like a Democrat that's not crazy.
• 35:03
  SPEAKER_04: Crazy.
• 35:04
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he did have some good points, I'm not gonna lie.
• 35:07
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but most of my views align with conservatism and the on the right or the red or however you want to look at it.
• 35:14
  SPEAKER_02: But yeah, I don't vote for a person specifically because they're red, but usually the people I vote for, I like their policies because they're on the red side.
• 35:23
  SPEAKER_02: So it's kind of weird to say that, but like I I'm not voting for somebody specifically because they're a Republican, because there are Republicans that I don't like.
• 35:30
  SPEAKER_02: Um Mitch McConnell.
• 35:33
  SPEAKER_02: Sorry.
• 35:34
  SPEAKER_02: Um but I I I do vote for people that I think can have have a voice and stand up for what's right.
• 35:40
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I think of like Ted Cruz or like, you know what I mean?
• 35:43
  SPEAKER_02: People that actually want to change things, not just in office just because it's a paycheck.
• 35:49
  SPEAKER_03: You do you think it's hard?
• 35:50
  SPEAKER_03: Do you think it's hard for them to change to what they what they want it to be like?
• 35:56
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, absolutely.
• 35:58
  SPEAKER_02: Because I think a lot of the people that are in Congress now are people that have been there for years and years and years and years, and somebody probably has their hand in their pocket, and if they don't, then they're probably doing their job wrong.
• 36:09
  SPEAKER_03: Hand in their pocket mean like lobbying, like people paying them, paying them off or whatever.
• 36:13
  SPEAKER_03: Yep.
• 36:14
  SPEAKER_03: Wow, it's crazy.
• 36:16
  SPEAKER_03: Do you think do you think them paying people off gets down to the like the city level?
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_02: Like paying city officials or whatever, pay you know I think money has is the root of all evil, and that money can come from anywhere, whether it's municipalities and and lower or higher.
• 36:31
  SPEAKER_02: The not the root of all evil.
• 36:33
  SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry.
• 36:33
  SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry, the the greed for money is is what causes the love for money.
• 36:38
  SPEAKER_01: I hate using the word love, but that's what the that's what it says in the Bible because it's always like people like the root of uh the root of uh all evil is money.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_01: No, I don't know.
• 36:46
  SPEAKER_01: It's a love of money is the root of all evil.
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_01: No, no, it's not funny.
• 36:49
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but like I was saying that the other day, but you know, it's the love of money that's the root of all evil.
• 36:54
  SPEAKER_02: People are greedy, and greedy turns into bad things, it always so are you guys saving for retirement?
• 37:01
  SPEAKER_03: How do y'all look how do y'all view that?
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 37:05
  SPEAKER_02: The I have a 401k, but I mean the if everything goes down or if the government decides they don't want to give me my money, there's things that can be done there, it's gone.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_02: Wow.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_02: So I would rather have a uh a I mean I would rather have a vault with all my money in it, but that's not gonna work either.
• 37:24
  SPEAKER_02: It doesn't gain interest that way.
• 37:26
  SPEAKER_01: Try to bring try to sell gold in corpus and you won't you won't make money off of it.
• 37:31
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you'll lose money on gold.
• 37:32
  SPEAKER_01: You'll lose money on gold.
• 37:33
  SPEAKER_01: You'll lose money on gold if you buy it, you know.
• 37:35
  SPEAKER_01: Be like, oh, I buy all this gold, I buy all the silver.
• 37:38
  SPEAKER_01: But no, I definitely believe in putting in the Roth RA.
• 37:40
  SPEAKER_01: You don't know the future, but at least you can do it.
• 37:42
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, and you do six thousand you do six thousand two hundred and thirty-eight.
• 37:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, something like that.
• 37:48
  SPEAKER_01: A year.
• 37:49
  SPEAKER_01: And you got till oh, it's already too late.
• 37:51
  SPEAKER_01: You got till February every year for the last year.
• 37:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 37:54
  SPEAKER_01: So if you do it before then, you're good.
• 37:57
  SPEAKER_01: But I think that's good.
• 37:58
  SPEAKER_01: Uh you know, putting in for retirement for the future.
• 38:00
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, for your kid's future.
• 38:02
  SPEAKER_01: No, I ain't leaving them nothing.
• 38:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we're talking about that why why are you because I've never met a rich kid that turned out alright in person.
• 38:12
  SPEAKER_01: I've seen him, but I never met him.
• 38:13
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna wait till I meet one.
• 38:14
  SPEAKER_01: If I meet one before my kids before I die, my kids are gonna be a little lucky.
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_03: But if I don't what if you teach what if you teach them about that, like though, you know what I mean?
• 38:22
  SPEAKER_03: That's what I was thinking.
• 38:23
  SPEAKER_01: Teach them about what?
• 38:24
  SPEAKER_03: Teach them about like the okay, teach them for one, that money comes from work, first of all.
• 38:31
  SPEAKER_03: And then two, you know where money comes from.
• 38:35
  SPEAKER_03: We save this money, this is what we have to give you.
• 38:39
  SPEAKER_03: Do you and then show them how to be responsible with it or what they're supposed to do with it.
• 38:46
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying?
• 38:47
  SPEAKER_03: What do you think?
• 38:48
  SPEAKER_01: I know that I give them money sometimes for working, and if they don't have money, they don't get candy.
• 38:52
  SPEAKER_01: That's all I do.
• 38:54
  SPEAKER_01: Like with them, as far as that.
• 38:55
  SPEAKER_01: But like like going back to like if you just don't know, dude.
• 39:00
  SPEAKER_01: It's like it's like kingships.
• 39:01
  SPEAKER_01: It's king goes to a king, goes to a king, and then you get a Nero.
• 39:05
  SPEAKER_01: Right?
• 39:06
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 39:07
  SPEAKER_01: So you don't know what the next generation is gonna be like.
• 39:10
  SPEAKER_03: Gotcha.
• 39:11
  SPEAKER_03: So so so you're basing it off of like what what you've seen before.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but yeah.
• 39:16
  SPEAKER_01: I think a trust would probably be the way I'm gonna leave them money.
• 39:19
  SPEAKER_03: What is a trust?
• 39:19
  SPEAKER_03: What is it?
• 39:20
  SPEAKER_01: A trust is like you're leaving them money, but they have to do this, this, and this to get the money.
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_01: And if they don't do this, this, and this, they don't get the money.
• 39:27
  SPEAKER_01: Interesting.
• 39:28
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, you could I think I don't I'm not I don't know if I'm right or wrong on this, but I think you could even make it where every 90 days they gotta take an air follicle test.
• 39:35
  SPEAKER_01: You know, but I'm not sure.
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_01: I think you could work it out like that.
• 39:38
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 39:38
  SPEAKER_01: For them to get four thousand dollars a month for the rest of their lives or whatever, adjusted to inflation.
• 39:43
  SPEAKER_03: So are would you are you gonna are you gonna pay for their college or how how how do you approach that aspect?
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_01: No, because the government's involved in it.
• 39:50
  SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna give my money more more money to the government through giving money to their college.
• 39:53
  SPEAKER_01: To the college, to what learn a trade or a high uh they're either gonna do really good in school and do really good in sports, or they're gonna join the military.
• 40:01
  SPEAKER_01: Dude, that's what I tell all of them.
• 40:03
  SPEAKER_01: Because I'm not gonna save up 200,000.
• 40:05
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, just on the the level of inflation and how expensive college is, and I have six kids, even if I had one, I'd be like, no, I'm not gonna pay that.
• 40:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because the reason it's so inflated is because the government got involved in that.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_01: They keep giving debt, they keep giving them out.
• 40:20
  SPEAKER_01: So you could go to the military and then go to college for free, or you could do really good in high school on your grades and get into college for free, or you could be really good at football and go to college for free.
• 40:31
  SPEAKER_02: If if college degrees were so important, it should be something that should be included.
• 40:37
  SPEAKER_02: We need more if we need more doctors, then doctors should be incentivized to go to school by either being paid for by our taxes or um finding a different way to get it done.
• 40:48
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but telling us that that our child needs to take out a$250,000 loan because they want to be a doctor is not something that I think the government should have the right to do.
• 40:57
  SPEAKER_02: I think it should be either provided but through the taxes that we're already paying, but paying money on something that we've already taxed, it just doesn't make sense to me.
• 41:04
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 41:05
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think if we just take the money away from the colleges, they'll get cheaper.
• 41:11
  SPEAKER_01: They'll get way cheaper, and we'll be able to afford it.
• 41:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 41:15
  SPEAKER_03: And to be a doctor, you have to go to go.
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_02: There's no option to not go to college if you want to be a doctor or a lawyer or something like that.
• 41:22
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I think you can take the bar and be California, not Texas.
• 41:25
  SPEAKER_01: Texas, you have to go to college.
• 41:27
  SPEAKER_01: California could just take the bar and be a lawyer.
• 41:29
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
• 41:30
  SPEAKER_02: So there's certain, but yeah, like a doctor or anything in the medical field, they're gonna want something.
• 41:35
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 41:37
  SPEAKER_03: I would tell them if they're going to college, like if you're gonna go to college, you get a degree that's gonna get you money when you finish.
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_03: Like, don't get some liberal arts degree or something like that.
• 41:48
  SPEAKER_02: Or that, or I mean, I think why is that even an option though?
• 41:51
  SPEAKER_02: Like, think about that.
• 41:51
  SPEAKER_02: Like, why just because the government can make money on it?
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, I'm gonna go for uh women's studies, that's gonna be my major.
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna go for as a German philosopher.
• 42:00
  SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
• 42:01
  SPEAKER_02: Interpretive dance.
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_02: Interpretive dance.
• 42:03
  SPEAKER_02: Like, why is that even an option?
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_02: Like, why are we not focusing on things that can actually make our society better?
• 42:09
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 42:09
  SPEAKER_03: Because the govern the the the colleges still sorry, sorry, the colleges they want money, you know what I mean?
• 42:15
  SPEAKER_03: That's how they continue to get money to have these degrees that are appealing to people.

  SPEAKER_00: That's true.
• 42:34
  SPEAKER_01: If he just works hard, and the same thing with like a diesel mechanic.
• 42:37
  SPEAKER_01: If he works hard and he doesn't do drugs, he could be a millionaire.

• 56:05
  SPEAKER_03: From Qatino, something like that.

  SPEAKER_02: Uh uh Abbott was yeah, so he was saying, you know, this is what we're gonna do.

  SPEAKER_02: And then um Biden was like, hey, you need to stop doing what you're doing.
• 56:52
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, and so he sent that was basically the cease and desist.

• 57:01
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 57:02
  SPEAKER_02: But it was basically saying that he's uh the Biden's not upholding his constitutional duty to protect the border, so because he's not doing that, they don't have we don't have to follow what you're saying with the cease and desist.
• 57:13
  SPEAKER_02: Because it's in the Texas constitution, no, it's it's a United States constitution.
• 57:16
  SPEAKER_02: Oh it's not I mean it's in there.
