  Speaker 1: We got a question for American Mamas. Dear Mamas, what
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: do you think about Russell Brand being found guilty of rape?
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our American Mamas. Mama, Mama, Mama. Mama
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: told me not to come. She said that ain't the
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: way to happen, no.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: And joining us now are American Mama Terry Netterville. So
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Russell Brand was... I think he used to describe himself
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: as being hedonistic, as being kind of an awful person.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: He was obviously a famous actor. The movie Forgetting Sarah
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Marshall and Get Somebody... He was a comedian. He was
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a comedian and... What's it? Get Somebody to the Strand?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I don't remember the name of that film, but... And then...
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Within the last five years or so, ten years, he
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: had literally a come-to-Jesus moment, completely changed how he viewed
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: the world, gave himself over to Christ, was quoting Scripture.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: He had a podcast where he was talking about Scripture.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: And then the rape charges came, and this week he
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: was just found guilty of raping a woman in, what, 2004? Yeah,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: it was.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Like almost 30 years ago. Yeah, 20 years ago.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, 20 years ago.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know, if you have not kept up with
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: this case, it's pretty tragic all the way around. Yeah.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Because you see things happen like this where, you know,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: men are accused of rape. If they are a Democrat
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: at a high level, like let's say Alec Baldwin, if
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: that had been a Republican that shot that gun, they
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: would be in jail. But when you're a Democrat, you
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: don't have to suffer any consequences. So here's what you
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: need to know about this whole case. There was a
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: documentary that was done in Europe, and I think it's
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: on Netflix, about Bran, about these alleged rape cases.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: And this documentary came out after his conversion to Christianity,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: after his becoming a conservative.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what people need to know, too. He not
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: only became a Christian, but once he had clarity of
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: the mind— He started thinking more like a Republican, and
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: then he changed all the way to conservative. He's very bright,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: very intelligent. So on the podcast, he would have people
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: on there. He's so highly intelligent that every single point
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: they would make, he would have a counterpoint that made
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: more sense. So they knew that he was swaying people,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: not only to Christianity, but also to the right.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: He was.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: So this documentary that they had, you have to understand,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: these women... They never brought this case forward. They never
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: shared it with anybody. They never said, he raped me.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: The documentary had actors and actresses. So instead of having
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: a real documentary where you have the actual people, and
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: you can kind of tell about that, You know, it's
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: kind of like that E. Jean Carroll. You can tell
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: she's kind of kooky. Well, in this instance, they had
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a script. These actresses were able to act like.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: They did a reenactment.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: They did a reenactment. And if you're an actress, you
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: can really do it. If you're the person, you can
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: tell by the inflection or the tone or the awkwardness
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: at certain times. So I'm not going to get graphic
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: because it's really gross, the things that they did, the
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: things they allegedly did. But these women went to his
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: show and they would go to his room... to the
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: back room right after that show, meet him right there,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: and they would end up doing things. So I think
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: that when the documentary came out, somebody had a vendetta
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: against him because he was moving people towards Christianity, moving
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: them to the right. So they did this documentary that
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: was so unbelievably treacherous and terrible, and they had that music,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: you know, when you put dramatic music behind it. He
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: looked guilty as homemade sin. And he's up there saying,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: wait a minute, they came to my room? This one
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: invited me to her hotel room. If I raped her,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: then why did she go with me to go watch
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: a movie the next day? Why did this one ride
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: with me to go to a restaurant with some friends?
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Why did this one meet my mom? If you're raped,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: do you do that? Do you say, Leo, I'll go
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: with you to meet some friends at a bar? No.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: So this is one of those me-too things. If you
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: heard any of that courtroom drama, the judge made up
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: his mind before any case was even presented in front
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: of him. And one of the things that happened is
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Russell Brand's attorney, I think they're called the barristers. The barristers, yes.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: His barrister started talking, you know, what is it when
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: you press the defendant or whatever, when he's cross-examining or whatever?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: You're cross-examining, yeah. The judge stopped it, and he said,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: don't you see that this is not okay because the
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: girl was crying her eyes out? I don't remember. I
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: don't remember. So he was already indicating to the jury
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: who he thought was guilty in this thing. And they
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: wouldn't let him bring up things that the women said
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: in other cases. The whole thing was a sham.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: And the judicial system in Britain is broken now.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: For sure.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know specifically about this case, but there's a
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: whole bunch of other things going on.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: And if you are a conservative in Britain, you're going
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: to jail for tweets.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Yes. It's unbelievable. And let me tell you, this should
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: be a warning to all men, too, over there. Be careful,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: because a scorned woman, they can take you in and
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: put you in jail.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: And that is part of what Russell Brand said, was
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: that before he became a Christian, he was doing a
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: whole bunch of stuff he's embarrassed about. Yes. But that
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily mean he committed rape, because he did plead
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: not guilty to all this.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: He's been found guilty, and the same judge you're talking
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: about said, you're going to go away for a long,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: long time.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, wouldn't even let him say goodbye to his daughters.
• 5:39
