Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Guys, I got to be really honest. I don't know if our weirds are matching up. Oh, wow.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Yeah, who's speaking?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Oh, this is kind of weird. Yeah, Brooke, come on a little bit stronger. You're already scaring him.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Actually, I think I have heard of that, but it's on like a podcast or something.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Oh, okay. I see where this has gone.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
I guess I just heard someone say about the dog thing. So you've heard a little bit, I'm sure.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Yeah. You guys have no idea. What? We're talking about the golden retrievers in general because it was on a profile. Out of nowhere, she puts her nose on the edge of her wine glass and starts lapping her wine like it was a dog drinking a bowl.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
There's more, though. So after that, I was already a little weirded out. And she's like, want to play a game? I was like, sure, why not? She's like, you have to guess how much I like you. And she starts panting like. Panting like a dog.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
I'm not sure what the answer was, but she just like panted harder. So I don't know. Maybe that means she liked me more.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Well, there was another weird part, which was basically she like put her wet nose into my cheek and I don't even know how her nose got wet.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
I thought she was going to pull out a leash.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Oh, man, are you joking right now?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Give Him The Golden
Yeah, I mean, look, there was good parts of our conversation. It's just other parts were, like, significantly weirder.

Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Why are you holding on to it? It was a gift. I just held on to it, you know. It was a messy end. I don't want to get into it at all, but anyway. I'm trying to get better.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Yeah, I just didn't want to see her kind of thing. It wasn't really about keeping it out of spite or anything.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
It's more amazing that you pulled it off, then why would I be angry about that?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Well, I think you guys are going to help me out.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I want you to know that before I started dating, even before I had you guys help me advise with my friend, I was in a long relationship before then. It ended messy. So I was definitely taking a long break from dating, but now I'm back out there.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I feel all right. I mean, I'm finally got on the apps, but why I need your advice is somebody I met in real life, not on the apps.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Well, her name's Megan, and I met her at the grocery store. What?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
How did you meet Megan there? Just we caught each other's eyes and then we kept finding each other on almost every eye.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Yeah, to the point where, like, she jokingly had to ask me, are you following me? With a smile.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
You know, I asked her right back, though, are you following me? And that started up like a... Small conversation. We just talked about what was in our cart, you know?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
You guys went deep on that first convo. Oh, my God. Yeah, and that led to me asking for her number.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Yeah, I got her number. Wow.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Well, you're jumping ahead. There was some ghosting. Yeah. Oh.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
yeah i mean we we did meet up i suggested we go out for dinner like a restaurant just to get to know her more but she countered with just like i don't feel like going out can we just watch a movie and i said sure and she suggested my place is it or i mean like are you because i feel like it's a good sign for just like a one night hangout situation it's not a good sign if you're
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I felt very comfortable and relaxed. All we ended up doing was just watching a movie, had a couple of drinks.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
So then I thought the night would go a little longer, but she said she had to go and get something from her car real quick. She's like, oh, I got to run to my car real quick. I didn't even think of it. I was having a good time. And that's when she just never came back. Whoa.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I was concerned. I'm like, I hope no one snatched her up or something. Yeah. Like, text it. I call, I even called the number. I mean, no, no reply for quite a bit. And then she finally got back to me and all she just sent a text over and it just said, Hey, sorry, it's not going to work out between us. That was it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I just want to know what was the turnoff, because I'm confused. Was it my apartment? Was it something I did? I don't know.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Okay. This might lead to me being embarrassed. Who cares? Let's find out what I did so I can, you know.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
I am very hopeful that I'm going to get something positive out of this. It'll be an easy correction to make.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update Classic: Secret Mission
Do you hear the condescending tone in her voice? Yeah. I'm not hopeful to get another date out of this. It's not like trying to get her back with me. I just want to become better at dating. Okay. And that's sweet.

Aviation history was made when two experienced Jetman Dubai daredevils flew in formation with an Emirates Airbus A380 jumbo jet.

Negligent Discharge Friday - 4/25/25
Two wing jet pack flyers flew around the world's largest passenger aircraft. Here we're looking at a human being that has a Kevlar wing strapped to their body with four engines and flying in close proximity to an aircraft that is absolutely enormous. It took three months to plan and coordinate the incredible project.

I think it would crumble you. You mean, wait, wait, you don't think I could like mentally survive the impact of doing that? Or do you think I, you don't think I could do it in general? Yes. Okay. All right, cool. Yeah. That's good to know.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I got this online and I was like, hey, this is kind of cool. And I'm never going to wear it again. What was the website? It was on Instagram.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, well, you don't know that. I mean, I assume it's not. The brand wasn't Shein, but they may have made it.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
That, um, yeah, I mean that wouldn't surprise me. Yeah. Yeah. They don't really, they don't really care about worker, um, worker welfare in China.

Yes, I literally have been to New York. When? Two February's ago. On your way to Italy? No, like I went there to visit a buddy. I stayed there for like four or five days. I bet you did, but... And you didn't go to B&H Photo, though?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, for sure. All right. Kind of going off of that. We're threeing it today? Pretty much. No, so I read a headline that said, the United States hasn't minted any new Purple Hearts. They're using a stockpile that they had from an anticipated ground invasion of Japan.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, the actual metals. Yeah. And I heard that fact and I was like, that is insane, if true.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
How many? Let's see. U.S. soldiers. So approximately 670,000. Okay.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Do you want one? I don't want one. No. Why? Because I was not wounded in combat. Whatever, Tim.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Google AI says it is true that a significant portion awarded in the post-World War II era were drawn from a stockpile produced in anticipation of a ground invasion of Japan.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, basically just a thing of napalm on your back.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. Yeah. That's kind of a crazy. Yeah. And they were like 18, 19. Yeah. So wild. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's wild. What else you got? Um, have you heard of Israeli soldiers shooting at ambulances and paramedics?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
This happened just recently. Okay. So Red Crescent, which is like the Islam Red Cross. Okay. Went in to help. I think it was like a car crash or something in Gaza. Okay. They had lights and sirens. Yep. Obviously ambulances. And then they get out of their cars and then there's a video. You hear bullets cracking by and there was Israeli soldiers shooting at them.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I think one of them got, a couple of them got hit. They thought, they claim, Israel claims that they thought they were Hamas terrorists.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I'm saying, yeah, as if I know what I'm talking about. I'm just agreeing with you.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I feel like actually I would get more shit from the other people there because you're there with me.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. Then from you. Yeah. The documentary is secondary.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
No, that'd be a really fun time. I think.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I mean, I can, I can like tread water and swim, but I just don't like doing it. That's great. That should get me, get me by, right? Sure.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
That's kind of just been my life so far.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Um, Oh, a, uh, um, I think this was recently a man tried to scale the white house fence.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I don't remember what exactly happened. Um,
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I mean, it looks like it's already pretty slippery. Yeah. He got pretty high actually.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, that, I could see that. I could see that. Yeah. Did you learn that when you went and visited the secret service? Nope. Okay.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, I mean, as a parent, I feel like you should be watching your kid and make sure they don't go through the bars of the White House fence. Yeah, why don't you have some fucking kids first before you say stupid shit like that? Let me tell you right now, your kids don't listen to you.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I wish there was video of him actually going through the fence.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
That's funny, though. Yeah. Yeah, I think it's all just that.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Did you go on the tour? Yeah. What'd you see? Not a whole lot, honestly. Um, I think we saw the, I don't remember exactly which rooms we went on. I mean, it was cool, but it was just like, Oh yeah, this is a slightly larger house.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. No, it was cool. I went to the Capitol building to Smithsonian, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Leah would have gone with you to the Smithsonian.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, come on. I didn't put a link for this. Let me see if I can find it. But this says planes crash into each other while skydiving.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Let's see. Let's see if this is the one.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
So they hit. Burning piece of wreckage.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. So this is also kind of in the same vein. Did you hear about that? A YouTuber who intentionally crashed his plane.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, no, I got it. All right. So she texts me, damn it, we're not enough people doing or going for the semi-auto Fridays or whatever you guys called it. And I said, oh no, they loved it. We just haven't done one in a while. And she goes, well, get back on it. We loved it.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I think he ended up owning up to it. Well, yeah, because. After everybody was like, what?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I, well, and that's the thing is like, I heard the first thing I heard from people like doing videos about this is you would never, ever fly a plane with your skydiving rig on.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Fucking good luck. Good luck. I feel like... I could figure out like, um, pitch roll and yaw. Why do you feel that?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yaw is this way. No, that's pitch. Yaw is this way. You fucking disgust me. The pedals. You disgust me.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Thank God. That's pitch. Okay. Which is the in and out of the... Of the? It's not called a steering wheel. How about we call it a yoke? The yoke. Roll is you roll the yoke. Yaw is you push the pedals. What causes the roll? The ailerons on the, or the flaps on the wings.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
You're going to go left. It's the correct answer, but why? Because the air is pushing it. It comes in. It's pushing down against it, which forces the... waiting to go that way. Sure.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I'm absolutely a hundred percent willing to do that. That would be so much fun.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Well, yeah, that's what I was saying. I think people just think about that, but then there's the whole control panel. And then also what I don't understand is flaps. When you do flaps, when you're taking off and landing and why do you do flaps? Yeah. Why you need them and all that. It changes the contour of the wing. It allows you to create more lift at a slower airspeed. Okay. Okay.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
So when you're taking off, you want them because you can create more lift when you're going slower.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Okay. As long as it doesn't, there's no possible way for those things to get damaged, right? The simulators.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Figure out how far away I am from the- 25 miles. 25 miles. I feel like that's a very short distance.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
We're recording an episode at my mother's request.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. Yeah. 50. We'll give you some more time. Okay. So my first move would probably. Looking at this, where do you go first, Michael? You know, I would probably type into the keyboard. No, no, you're dead.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, my. Yeah, there is. Indeed. Oh, this controls your speed here, right? Also known as the throttles.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Um, in that case, probably not. Okay. Um, so I would probably slow her down. How much? A couple knots. A couple knots. All right. When you get this handed over, you're doing 450. 450 knots. Yeah. Probably slow down to like 200 knots. What's the stall speed in a clean configuration? Probably like 100 knots. Perfect. Okay. So yeah, probably slower down.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Bring the nose up because I'm going to be landing. Oh, I probably need to put the... You're 50 miles out, sir.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Hell yeah. And then I need to get the landing gear down. Let's see if you can find it. Which, um, let's see here. I feel like this is too blurry for me to find. No, I can see it right now. Hmm. Fascinating.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I just didn't know that because the picture is so blurry, you know.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, that's totally reasonable. Yeah, I could probably definitely land a plane. No. Specifically this one. How would you determine where the airport is? By looking at the little map right here.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I'll switch it to maps. Really? Which keyboard would you use for that? This is probably a touchscreen though. No.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
That's true. Yeah. Which I feel like would, what's that? What do you think? Like five minutes, 10 minutes.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. Okay. I can see what you're. Yeah.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I don't know if, I mean, let's just take it to an hour. I don't know if people can. Sounds good. How about, this is like kind of a sad video, but also kind of funny. Have you seen the video of that like soccer mom that tries to do an MMA fight with an actual MMA fighter? How does that go? It does not go her way. Why do people think that they know how to fight? I don't know. I'm not quite sure.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, I don't know if that'll be the video. Go to YouTube. Yeah. Oh, wait. Is that it? Oh, mother of God. Reddit. I hate Reddit. Reddit.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, man. Yeah, let's watch that again. Yeah, I don't know if she really knew what she was signing up for. No. Are you ready? No, she's not. Her outfit, too, is interesting.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
um this has been me up for about 72 hours the internet has some odd answers like smell checks and that's that was where my mind went first it's like you could possibly have you ever thought about that though you know i've seen that posed um and i really didn't give it a whole lot of thought i was like oh that's interesting what are the options
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Go to town maybe? I feel like she is in like a kind of a seedy gym. And the coach was like, yeah, you should definitely do this.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
That was average. Not really trying incredibly hard. What does that even mean? Does that mean you hang out by yourself? No, I have friends, even though you may find that hard to believe. What do you guys do? Just hang out, get a beer, play guitar, you know.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I guess you could just go through a ton of toilet paper. Okay. Then just that pretty much guarantees you're good every time, but at the cost of time and quality of life, quality of life too. Yeah. A little chafey. Hmm. Yeah.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I don't know. Maybe they use like baby wipes. So it's more. How do they know when to stop? Well, I don't know, but you would have to use less baby wipes, you know.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
You'd have to really, really have a special bond with somebody. Yeah. To have that kind of relationship.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
He did that to me when I was watching him. First time he ever had an accident with me.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, I think that would definitely reduce the marking. Yeah.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Oh, I mean, yeah, maybe. I feel like it depends on the person. What would you do if you were blind? Specifically in the wiping scenario?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I, yeah, I mean, I would probably use a bidet and then honestly I would probably go with the, I'm shocked you don't use one just as it is. It's kind of fits that shirt.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I only use it after I've gone to the bathroom number two.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Okay, well, you can believe what you want, but I'm telling you the truth. All right. Yeah.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
I had some stocked up because we haven't done one in a while. All right.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Okay. What is your opinion on the U.S. dropping two atomic bombs on Japan in World War II? Like my general opinion? Yeah, do you think it was right? Do you think it was wrong? Oh, man.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
140,000 in Hiroshima, 74,000 in Nagasaki.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah. I would say probably because the overall World War II estimated deaths are 70 to 85 million. Most of that being civilians.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
And so if we add on another probably three years to invade Japan... that's got to be another probably four or five million people i mean is more is war morally right is war right or wrong i mean there's deeper questions than just an atomic bomb itself yeah for sure i mean i would say no but also i understand that sometimes it's unavoidable do you think you could kill somebody
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Uh, like morally, do you think I could?
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Uh, yeah. If somebody was about to hurt my family or me or a very close friend, that's your line in the sand.
Cleared Hot
Negligent Discharge Friday - With Michael Shelton
Yeah, no, I think, no, that, that wouldn't do it quite. Yeah. Yeah.

I think it's super rad what he's doing, though. He's like proof of concept. He killed it. And now he's got his son who's getting involved in it. And he's like, I'm gonna shift. I'm gonna take a backseat and I'm gonna help my kid learn how to navigate this space. Hands on.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
And you know he's paid off his house. I mean, he's probably as a lawyer made a few smart moves. Like the dude's sitting happy. He's like, I'd rather just hang out with the fam and do this for myself. Yeah. So respect to that.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
And, like, well, he was, you know, he was talking about just encountering just how hard it was to be normal, getting that big in public with the family.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Like, it's got to be weird when you got kids.

Wie viele Leute sind auf solche Geschichten für die Militärin gelistet, die sich aufhören, Geschichten zu hören?

Einer der lustigsten Details ist, dass er bekannt war für das Dressen unter Frauen-Garben, als er ausgewogen wurde, um das zu halten. Aber er war sechs Fuß fünf. Die average Height of a woman in Afghanistan is five one. He was six five.

It's straight up Tony Stark, Stark Industry stuff. Yeah.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
You know what I'm talking about? I remember I sent the longer video, but he's also the dude who's exposing the fact of how contracts are won. They say it's fair because we're bidding. He's like, but I'm the only dude bidding. So he's like, I just set a price for whatever I want.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
industrial complex.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I thought he was like a little more of a nationalist though. I mean, he's on that high horse. I don't know if it was publicity or if that's actually something he believes in.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
People like that rise to power because they realize inefficiencies in the processes that exist in government. I saw this thing, I think it was out of World War II, where they were talking about examining airplanes that were being shot at because they were trying to rebuild airplanes to make them less prone to be shot down.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
So when a plane would come back littered with bullet holes, they were like, we need to start documenting this so we can know where to add some additional metal and stuff. This project's literally been going on. And then one of the engineers finally gets fed up. He's like, you do realize the only ones coming back are the ones that don't have fatal shots. So they've been putting scrap metal on.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Looking in the wrong place the whole time, yeah. But so you get people who are like, when you take things like AI and the ability to... Yeah. Yeah.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Ja, ich möchte, dass du sie siehst. Das wäre großartig für die Kinder. Okay, geh nach Hause. Hast du gesagt, dass du oder nicht Zero Dark Thirty gesehen hast? Ich habe. Du hast es gesehen? Ja. Und sie waren einfach nicht in Ordnung?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Yeah, he missed that when I made a comment about trying to go back to his childhood. He made a comment about it always being there for him. It's definitely like... I was like, oh, I was making a joke.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I don't think I would have been good. Und ich glaube, es gibt drei Typen von Parachuten, aber er machte diesen einen Jump, wo du apparellens gehst, wo du Oxygen benötigst und Frefall. Und er sagte, er sagte, es ist das seltsame Ding, weil du, du bist kind of like trying to figure out and assess where you're going.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
And he said he was hanging out in the air and he had like lost his buddy kind of like where we are. This is just training. And then he said, you have no idea how fast you're moving up there until he's sitting here. And then his buddy just goes like mock 10 seconds. And he's like, oh, we're going that way. Like literally has to like readjust in the air.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
But they jump without the chutes immediately deployed so they can literally fly in just using their own like they swim too. So he said sometimes you'll have like swim flippers on. Yeah. And so you can like literally so wild fly in. That'd be so fun. Who skydived?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies

So cool. They like inherit the business of the parent too. So you think about the generations of skill that get poured into one craftsman or laborer to like do that one particular joint. It's like Yeah, America, we just got a nail gun.

It's ten big clusters. You would die, Lil. I looked it up. It's 50 to 100 grapes in an average cluster.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Or the question is actually would you die for your best friend? But they would die.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Yeah, but would you rather be tortured for eternity or die? Why is it eternity? Well, how long do you last?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
It's a spectrum, though. At some point, life becomes tolerable and isn't torture. You're just incarcerated.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
That's why I answered. I said until they're happy.

He is looking into my soul right now. Keep it there.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Well, the sketchy thing is they come back. That's like a narrative that's constantly said, like frequent visits. So who knows if this was like, we're going to plant this seed in this conversation. We'll revisit you all at some other point. They're going to come back to the same school, but where did they go?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I feel like.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Dude, I feel like telling my alien story is going to be like exact same story, but that kind of affirms it. So this is out of Gulf Breeze, Florida. I'm from Fort Walton Beach, which is literally 15 minutes away. But the hook that you gave was literally the hook that I wrote down. I was like, I'm trying to think of the hook.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I was like, I think I'm going to call it, because it is the most compelling alien story I've ever heard in my life. Wait till you hear my most compelling story.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I was like, oh, dang. So I'm going to say it. It really is the most compelling alien story I've ever heard in my life. So it starts out, this guy, Ed Walters, he's in Gulf Breeze, Florida, which is a military community. And so I've always chalked these stories up to be, like I literally didn't research any of them, because I'm like, the Air Force base is right there. They've been running ops.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Like, obviously, that's what it is. Well, I looked into his story today. It's freaking insane. Und er ist ein Bauernarbeiter und er ist höher auf. Und er reist zu Arbeitsplätzen, um sicherzustellen, dass sie nach dem Plan gehen. Und dann schnappt er Fotos. Er trägt eine Kamera mit ihm immer.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Wir haben eigentlich Fotos der UFO, die er gesehen hat, weil sein Job ihn benötigte, immer diese Kamera zu handeln. So anyways, he goes to this job site and everything's looking good. Goes home, looks out his window just as the sun's setting and then over the tree line literally sees blue lights just like peering through the pines. He's like, what the heck?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Goes outside with his camera and looks up only for a UFO to emerge and he says it blue beams down to him, locks him in fear. He says he enters a state of paralysis and actually levitates a couple feet off the ground. Und dann sagt er, er beginnt mit diesen Menschen zu kommunizieren. Und das erste, was sie sagen, ist, dass sie keine Angst haben. Sie sprechen Englisch.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Und dann sagt eine andere Stimme in Spanisch, dass es keine Bilder gibt. Aber ich vergesse, wie man das in Spanisch sagt. Bilder. Ja, genau. Und das seltsame ist, dass es dann Fotos von Hunden zeigt. Er war so, was zur Hölle? Und dann sagen sie, es ist literally, es schnappt aus. Sie sagen, wir werden zurückkommen und er schnappt aus. Und es schreckt ihn aus, spricht mit seiner Frau.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Er nimmt das Bild und wir werden hier steigen, weil ich dich senden werde. Du weißt, er fängt einfach mit einem Polaroid an. Ich hätte diese vorhin senden sollen, bevor ich die Geschichte erzählt habe.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Vielleicht.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Oh my gosh.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
So this is after he's been let back down. Ed Walters in Gulf Breeze, Florida. Anyways, he talks to his wife, he's like, I think I want to submit these photos to the paper. He's like, maybe I'll do it anonymously. He's like, I don't know. I also don't want to be that guy. And she's like, don't do it.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Well, he has another encounter where they show up again and via telepathy, they start telling him, they're like, they start showing him undressed women, pregnant women, all sorts of things. And then he's like, he starts freaking out. They say, we'll be back. And then again, the episode ends. Er schreibt mehr Fotos und ich werde dir nicht jede Fotos senden.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Wir posten sie über das Ding, aber literally Encounter after Encounter. Und er beginnt, über das verrückt zu werden. Der verrücktste ist. Ich werde dir diese Fotos senden. He is finishing up at a job site. And he looks out. Normally these have been like up at tree level or like a little bit distant. And he's kind of like popping off. Well, this one comes around the corner and descends.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
And he literally pulls his camera and shoots. And this is the closest photo that I've ever seen. These are all Polaroids? Wow. This is a Polaroid photo shot in Gulf Breeze, Florida. Oh mein Gott. Und wiederum, es kommuniziert telepathisch. Nun, das verrückte Ding ist, dass es Plätze gibt, wo er sagte, dass er es gesehen hat, dass es runtergegangen ist und das Gras nie wieder zurückgegrüßt wurde.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Das ist ein normales Thema. Und so hat er, ich sage das, für die Hater und Fakt-Checker da draußen, er hat ein Buch geschrieben, er hat Filmrechte verkauft. Ich denke, es gibt ein Show, das, wie du weißt, ein bisschen über seine Geschichte gesprochen hat. Er hat ungefähr eine halbe Million Dollar davon verdient, seine Geschichte zu verkaufen.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Aber ja, ich würde auch, wenn Leute hören würden und es verkaufen. Where he had all of these first encounters and the next person who bought the house is literally just going around the house. There's like a water line or something. They were looking for a valve and they find in his attic a model. They find a model of a UFO. Und die Person war so, oh, das ist seltsam.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Und der Junge war ein kuckieriger Junge. Sie haben nicht sein Haus gekauft, weil er ein UFO-Recher ist. Und sie sind so, okay, ich habe ein UFO-Ding. Sie haben es mitgebracht. Drei Tage später kommt ein Reporter. Hey, ich frage mich, ob ihr etwas seltsames gesehen habt.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
what do you mean like you found any photos of ufos had any encounters no no how about models literally a reporter shows up at the door three days later after it being found saying you haven't happened to find a model by chance and so i think the model was planted so that and this is what he said he said everyone's like oh we found your model these are these are fake photos and he's like
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Why would my half a million dollars that I've sold now, right? Like, why would I chance losing my credibility on leaving the model I used in my attic after selling my house? Makes no sense.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I can't believe I forgot it. I knew I forgot. Honey, I told you to grab it.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
And so... They had, this is the coolest job title ever, they had a physicist, an optical physicist for the US Navy investigate the Polaroid photos. And he did in fact, his name is Dr. McAfee, he did in fact confirm that those Polaroids, while he did not say they are alien, he said they are not modified or edited, they are real Polaroid photos. That's insane.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Double exposure is also one of the theories, but that physicist said these weren't faked. These photos were popped.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Ja, ich auch.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
87 and 88. My aliens have good taste.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
He said it was like, to your question, they were trying to figure out something about humanity because they... Often showed up, you know, it was different languages. It was the second or third encounter. He said the accent sounded African. And he was like, but it was telepathic.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
But if you're like formulating like a story, that just seems like such a weird way to tell it. So he worked for the Navy? No, no, no. The guy who fact-checked the Polaroids. The guy who was taking the Polaroids was just a construction worker. Oh, right, right, right. But they brought in... This got national attention for a while. They were investigating it.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
They could never prove that he had faked them and then prove that the photos themselves were just photos. And so like we don't know what this is. But I think that because that existed, they're like, let's do something to bury the story. And then all you have to do is put a dinky little toy in his attic and everybody even chat asking about it's like, well, they found a model.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
But it's like, that's dumb. If your life is based on doing the story, you're not going to sell a house. While you're still in coherent mind. It was like a couple years later. You're going to leave the biggest thing in your life in the attic. Yeah. I would. Because that's just my luck. I got everything. Where's the model?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
I love it. Dude, for the haters, it is funny that every generation's UFO looks... wie der Zeitpunkt, in dem es entdeckt wurde. Ja, es hat eine kulturelle Bedeutung.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Yeah, I guess his diary just says that there's no proof that he ever came up with a working model, but his diary, he was working on it and he believed through science you could communicate with the dead.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Ja, wir müssen voran kommen. Zu deinem Punkt, es ist verrückt, wie abhängig von Amazon ich bin. Ich bin in einen Tractor-Supplier für Birken, den ich typisch nur bestellen. Weil es ist wie 10 Dollar für eine Tasche von Birken auf Amazon, was nicht verrückt ist. Ich bin rein und es ist wie so groß, wie die Größe einer Tasche Eis oder so etwas. Es ist eine sehr standardische Maßnahme.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Wie viele Taschen Eis?
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Oh, don't get into that one thing too much.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
He was kind of the only good thing in there. Spoil away. Our whole family is terrified of this. Dude, do you see what I sent you in the chat? Like, it's actually disturbing. It's so funny. What's crazy is one eye is looking at my desk and the other eye is splitting between these two cameras and just staring at my soul.
Ninjas Are Butterflies
144 - Hollow Earth Cult, Alien Encounters, & Crop Circle Conspiracies
Yeah, Dutch the other day, he saw this and he goes... I want to put that on the ground in front of Lilo and see what she does.

to me, was at the end of all of these debates, I don't think they raised particularly strong arguments. It was unfair in the sense that their view of human nature is not grounded in reality. So it was going to be an uphill battle in any case. But I did enjoy chatting with a lot of them. And when we got to the end of the show, there was kind of a post-game interview
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And they said, well, what did you think of it? And I said, I really enjoyed the format. It was nice that I could take on as many of these people with the best arguments that they could possibly come up with. And I really enjoyed it. And I hope I persuaded some of them. But anyway, their mileage may vary. And then they interviewed them. And almost to a man, they said, Knowles is evil. He's a Nazi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He's terrible. Talking to him was the most horrific experience of my life. I thought, why are they so angry? I don't know. It seems to me, and I saw this in your episode on Jubilee too,
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
The side that is grounded, calm, generally amiable, willing to listen to the other side, doesn't get all riled up and start screaming and calling people names, usually in a debate, that's the side that has the stronger argument.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It's allowing men to be treated for the purposes of the law as women. It's men taking 900 sports trophies from women in recent years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
They took 900. There's a report that just came out from the United Nations, actually. 890 trophies and medals across 600 women who were competing, competitors, across 29 different sports in 400 competitions. That came out like yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It didn't happen, and they deserve them. Okay, that is the logic I hear from the pro-trans crowd.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
You know, generally speaking, you can kind of tell. There was another character during this debate, a fella, goes by the name of Blossom. And he was a very large, hulking man, but he had a wig on and everything. And the notion that one would not be able to tell from the shoulders and being like six foot four or whatever. It is kind of silly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
But that person actually did the meme, which it's not just the LGBTQ activists, but it's the left broadly does, which is they will say such and such that you're claiming is not happening. And then you provide all of the evidence. It's the celebration parallax.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And Michael Anton... The Celebration Parallax is Michael Anton calls it. That's right. And they'll say, well, no, actually, okay, now that I'm observing it, it's good that it's happening. And so there's something really funny about this format, which is, I think that person, you know, was voted out pretty quickly after that exchange. But there was one guy in particular...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Really just one guy of these 25 who I thought was pretty good. He was at least engaging with the arguments on a more serious philosophical and anthropological level. I thought, oh, interesting. I could really have a conversation with this guy. Mason, of course, that guy got voted out in like five seconds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
No, that guy Mason, I felt he was not making very good arguments in either yours or in mine. There was this other guy. He was a nice enough kid, but he had barely appeared in the episode. That guy Mason, I felt he made a big, big mistake, which is he was rude from the beginning, and so he wasn't winning over the audience or certainly wasn't winning over me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
But he also made the big mistake, which is he started – talking about something that he obviously knew nothing about. And you know this, Joe. You've done a bazillion debates in your life. You know that when you raise a point in a debate, you better have a good three or four paragraphs to back it up. If you don't, you get totally shut down, as unfortunately for him, happened to him in our exchange.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I think you're totally right about the hive mind aspect here, because they're going to come in and what they're going to try to hit you on is some statistic. And if being a conservative, I think statistics are basically bunk and not really worth bringing up all that often. But you have to bring them up because in modern culture, people think that that's what debates consist of.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
So you need to go in there with a slew of studies and numbers and statistics. But what's crazy about it, Charlie, is you saw this in your debate. I think you definitely saw it in my debate because we were debating really just human nature. You don't really need a dozen statistics to know that a boy can't become a girl, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
You don't really need a dozen statistics to know that it's good to enforce the law or that babies are babies and we should protect them. Ultimately, a lot of this comes down to common sense, first principles of practical reason, and basic philosophical intuitions, which unfortunately elude a lot of these people. Even if they are professional debaters in some cases, they have not been trained
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
not just in debate and rhetoric, but even in epistemology, even how to know things about anything. And so I feel it's actually, people say it's an unfair fight because it's 25 versus one. But if you're a conservative who has any kind of grounding at all, it might be unfair in the other direction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
All of that's true. Certainly, we've seen that happening for years. We know that the quality of education these days is a little bit weak at all the schools. However, there's another insight, a really traditional insight from our civilization and from Christianity that comes out, which is that sin darkens the intellect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
When you engage in sin and vice, it actually makes you dumber than you otherwise would be. And this is something we all have to watch out for because we all sin, so you got to be careful of it. But for a grown man to show up on television or the internet or just broadly on camera with a big wig on talking about his sexual desires and bizarre sexual practices, that's that is a crazy thing to do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
That is humiliating for the individual, and he shouldn't do it. And the kinds of arguments that I found they were making basically came down to, hey, I really like this thing, or hey, I have emotional problems, or hey, I was really angry at my family growing up or something. And so I have a great deal of sympathy for people, but it's just, it's evidence that they've lost control of their reason.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And the whole point of education is to take your appetites, we all have kind of weird appetites sometimes, it's a fallen world, to bring those under the command of your reason. So you say, no, I'm not going to eat the fifth cookie from the cookie jar. That's not going to be good. I want it in some ways, but it won't be good for me to eat that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
No, I'm not going to do that kind of weird behavior that's being encouraged by our society. But unfortunately, modern education tells you the opposite. It says, hey, if it feels good, do it. If you have any appetite at all, indulge it. Forget about reason. There's no such thing as objective truth. There's no such thing as objective reality. And it leaves these people ultimately
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
not just looking foolish in a debate against some conservative, but it leaves them very sad. I walked into that room. I had a nice time. I actually enjoyed speaking to the people, even the ones who were rude. They walked out of that room by their own admission, angry, sad, probably some of them wishing violence upon me, openly wishing violence upon you. That's not good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
That's not a good way to live. And if you're constantly furious and angry and just butting your head up against reality, it probably means that something in your ideology is a little bit wrong.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I think we're going to tell boys that they're not girls.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Yeah, basically. Yeah, that's what we've done for most of history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Yeah, well, because we live at a time that is affirming the transgender delusion. But if we lived at a more sensible time, probably you would have listened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And I think we should just return to a more sensible kind of politics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I think we kicked the fellas out of the boys' bathroom. We kicked the transgender teaching out of schools. How are you going to do that? We just enforced the law as it was before 2015. Michael? I think it's really as simple as that. Not everything has to be really complicated. And you could hear there from that interlocutor and really from a ton of the people on the Jubilee debate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
They ask you a question, you give them a simple answer, and then they accuse you of not having answered the question. And it's really because they don't want that answer. But I think what's really most jarring to them, especially on this issue, is how recently all of this has taken place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
That in the late part of Barack Obama's first term, he held the view of marriage that everyone has held for all of human history, namely that it involves a man and a woman, both of them together. They don't seem aware that until June of 2016, trans-identifying people were not permitted in the U.S. military. Of course not. You know, it's contrary to reality.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It shows that they've got some psychological problems. It's not good for military fitness. They don't seem to realize that until the 2016 election cycle, there wasn't a big blow up fight over bathrooms and some big push from the left to send men into the girls bathroom. They don't understand how recently this is. I guess my question for all of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
is one of the basic conservative objections to all of modern liberalism, which is, hey, if statistically everyone everywhere for all of history has thought a certain thing about human nature, Isn't there a decent chance they were right? You know, if you and like five of your friends think the opposite, isn't there just a... Isn't it more likely that everyone else was right? I don't know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
That seems persuasive to me. Maybe not to them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Okay, I think for all of history everywhere, people have understood the human person to have something to do with his body. So like your body has something to do with who you are. Now there is an alternative view, which is called Gnosticism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It's a view that our bodies don't really have anything to do with who we are, that the body is maybe even evil, and that our true selves have no connection to our bodies. And I see in the transgender ideology a kind of Gnosticism that says that you could look like a man, you could have a man's genetics, you could have a man's genitals, you could have a man's everything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
But if you feel on some deep level that you're really a woman, then you are really a woman. And I don't think that's true. And I think that the social effects of that are really bad because it leads to the depriving women of their legitimate rights. In some cases, it leads to rapes, notably in the last few years. And it also leads to women losing their sports competitions and their scholarships.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And it's just disordered and false. And it also leads to more people adopting this identity, which leads to very high rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide. So it's bad for everyone, and it's not grounded in reality.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I'm not physically the largest guy in the world, but I suppose he could have just like thrown me down onto the pavement. But I felt that... That wouldn't have been ladylike, Michael. That would not have been ladylike. It would have undercut his argument that he was a lady. And...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And right after that clip, the first response that guy made was he said, oh, you have no idea what you're talking about. You don't even understand the words you're saying. And I thought, you know, look, man, you could disagree. I guess you could try to disagree with what I'm saying about human nature. I think it would be difficult. But you can't tell me that I haven't articulated a view here. OK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And I think for much of the modern left, it's clear enough for us. who have some familiarity with history and how people have understood human nature. It's clear enough to us to say, oh, you're really denying that there's a connection between identity and the body.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
And then paradoxically, you're actually going in later and insisting that you mutilate the body to be more closely in line with your fantasy of how you really are or whatever. And there's a name for that. It's a Gnostic ideology. There have been many instances of it throughout history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Oh, thank you. But they did not appreciate that. Blossom did not think it was a profound point. And I suspect it's because where they're coming at this is not through a critical examination of human nature. What they're coming at this from is saying, look, I want to do this. I have this hang-up. Of course. And I get it.

Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Michael Knowles joins the program, everybody. This is what people said was the best interview from AmericaFest. Michael Knowles decided to be a little aggressive, a little uppity, a little chippy, where he decided to poke fun at Protestants, and we held the line, I think, pretty well. This was unscripted, not planned, where I guess we very in a friendly way debate

Can I interject on that? It was also all of you that kept on desiring the truth for January 6th. We have won that argument and they are running from the hills, by the way. They are running for the hills. Where... How many federal agents were there? Who planted the pipe bombs? Did you see?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Yeah. And if you actually read the headline more carefully, they say none of them were involved in the crimes. And it's like, wait, hold on. Oh, wait. But they were like telling them to do the crimes and like organizing them. This was a fedsurrection on January the 6th is what it was.

Turning Point Action exists because people, and you say some kind words, Michael, and a lot of people say, okay, Charlie, you guys played a role in the greatest political comeback ever. What's next? It would be very easy for us at Turning Point to play the establishment game. We exist simply to help grow our majority. Yes, of course. No, no, no, wait. Let's be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Thank you, and it's the team that deserves the credit at Turning Point. It's not me. The team believed, and we worked hard, and we did something that would be called very risky, but we hired 1,500 people in a couple states, and I did 25 campus stops and tours, and it's really amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
We want the Republican Party to be as conservative as its voters, and we're going to replace every single one of these people if you get in the way. Thank you.

Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
It'd be one thing if we lost the election, whatever. Guys, the American people handed us a popular vote win, and your congressional Republicans go back and decide to just stab us all in the back. That thing's dead on arrival, but we have a lot of work to do internally in the Republican Party If you live in South Dakota, Idaho, Iowa, Mississippi, we're not going to put up with this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
This is so new. I never—this is like—
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
We have the polling to now show it of how the states and the campuses that we actually hit on the precinct level moved by an average of 15 points, and then we had a control group of the campuses we didn't hit that only moved by one point. And so it goes to show how turning point action helped move the youth vote.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
As an evangelical who loves Catholics, I love that you're doing it, but let me just edit what you say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
It's a big one. You didn't catch it, Michael. It's that your goal should be to bring people to Jesus, not Catholicism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I'm not saying that they're contradictory, but your goal should not be to bring people to a specific sect of Christianity. It is to bring people to the cross.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Yes, but not the maxims of every Catholic dogma. No, I mean, for example, am I a Christian if I don't believe in Mariology? No. Well, we're talking about the fullness of the truth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
No, it's fine. I think that bringing people to Catholicism is fine. Of course, great, terrific. But that is hopefully a means to the ultimate end. You exist to bring people to Christ.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
And that is the goal. I'm just maybe being semantically, you know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
We schism and say you guys got it wrong.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
And in fact, if Kamala Harris just would have done one thing, if she just had to do one thing, she just had to get young people to vote the same way they did in 2020, and she would have won. That's it. If young people just would have voted the way they did in 2020, that's why all the national polling was off. It wasn't that far off with every other age group. It was off with young people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Of course. Yeah, and look, to be very clear, like 9 out of 10 of Catholic dogmas, evangelicals hold. 9 out of 10, right? And that is why I believe Catholics are Christian, even though you don't give me that same sort of charity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
No, I'm giving you a hard time. And I mean that—again, if you are a Catholic who loves Jesus, therefore—and I know that. I believe that there are personally some fundamental issues with, like I say, Mariology, transubstantiation, which we're not going to get into. But the biggest one is the papacy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I can't get over the idea of this Marxist who calls himself the head of your church being a representation of Christ our Lord. I just— And I mean that as someone who loves the Catholic impact on the world, that says it openly, and by the fruit you will know it, and you have very Marxist fruit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Well, I will say, I mean, John Paul II was amazing. I just think that there is a question to be asked of why is that specific process, that mechanism, given more merit than, let's just say, the local church and or the Word of God? And you'd say, okay, interpretation, you know. The final record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
That's fine. I just – that I would – I ask the question, if you are all in on the papacy and the Vatican, no practicing Catholic can look and say, this is the best that my religion has to offer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Attitude. I have to just... I have to just hope, you know, oh, you know, he doesn't mean that, you know, homosexuality is bad, you know, okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
But I know sometimes it's confusing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not going to give you that one. He's been way more open on that topic. Or the climate change thing. Climate change. And all this sort of stuff. You just have to kind of hope that he's saying that we want him to say it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
That was where the modeling was off the most. And the polling, always assuming that young people were going to vote with similar habits as they did in 2020, and it turns out we shocked the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
And so sometimes, you know, if you turn down the hearing aid on certain issues... And I mean this, like, non-sarcastically, but, like, why should I care at all what that guy from Argentina has to say?

The Charlie Kirk Show

Unless the bishop is corrupted.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
And then maybe the pope is corrupted, and we write 95 points of complaints. And...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Yeah, I just, I think that's fine, I guess. I mean, I think that if you have the Bible as any sort of semblance of a bedrock, you're going to last.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Well, who canonized it? Like, where did we get it from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Well, that's sort of true. I mean, I think our Lord, as part of Godship, God is the author of all 66 books, right? Yeah, of course. Wait, oh, you slipped that in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
No, this is interesting, though. Why is it that Catholics acknowledge divine books that Jews themselves don't think are divine? The keepers of the Torah don't even agree with your canon. Like the Wisdom of Ben Sirah, 1 and 2 Maccabees, according to rabbinical teaching, those are not divinely inspired books. Yet Catholics say we like those. Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
But no, we're the inheritors of the Torah as referenced by people that were schooled in that. And the Tanakh. So Protestantism has an identical mirrored image of the Torah and the Tanakh. And again, in traditional rabbinical teaching, they do not believe those books are divinely inspired. I know the answer and you're not going to like it, but that's fine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
It's because in those books, it allows for a lot of the practices of the Catholic Church and gives justification for a lot of that stuff. to get too deep in this. I actually think the world is a better place because of faithful Catholics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I've spoken out with great criticism of how evangelicals remained quiet here in Arizona on Prop 139 while the Catholic diocese was so courageous on the fight for life while evangelicals were silent. I want a better Catholic church, and I...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I personally would not be able to be part of an institution with the figurehead with a worldview that is so corrupted and opposite of what I think the Bible teaches. And I wouldn't give him the benefit of the doubt. I'd be like, no, I'm actually not part of this. I'm leaving. But today you're part of the United States, but the head of the United States is one of the worst presidents we ever had.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I don't take religious orders from Joe Biden. No, but you take political orders, or you at least follow the law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I mean, I follow the law, but I certainly don't have political orders from Joe Biden. No, I guess it would mean... No, that's not true either. We all broke laws we didn't like during COVID. All of us did. That's not true at all, actually. We opened our churches, and some of you guys lied about your vaccination status. That's not true at all. No, nobody lied about their accident.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Like, no. Like, we all rebel against corrupt institutions we don't like.

Okay, so that has not happened since what, Vatican II? No, it's a little bit. When was the last time the Pope spoke ex cathedra?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
When was the last time? Like 50, 60 years?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Okay, so then therefore there really is no functional use for a Pope for 150 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Your figurehead, your top leader is not good. No, I don't know. Well, none is good but God, I guess. Well, no, I would say Pope John Paul II was objectively a good person. You would say none is good but God. That's what our Lord tells us. Well, of course, we all fall short of the glory of God. Yeah, so there you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I think that there is a – I mean, Catholic moral teaching will tell you that there are gradations of sin.

I'm using your own morality, and I agree with it, right? That, like, Pope John Paul II is totally different than, you know, Ted Kaczynski.

So, Michael, you do a lot of campus stuff alongside, I mean, with us and with other people. Just what's going on with young men, campuses? Kind of give us your thoughtful analysis because there is a change. There's something profound. You've played a role. We've played a role. What is going on?

How about the sin of, like, heresy of the word of God? Like, believing in the... What heresy? Okay, without getting into, like, the specific things that he said, but, like, in the Latin, he was, the climate change stuff is insane.

If I had the full body of work in front of me, his teachings on communism are insane. He comes from liberation theology. He says he's not a communist. No, no. He said it.

Okay. So wait. So does Obama. So Michael, let me say this. If I had every quote here, which of course I don't, you would be able to defend them that he said?

You and I should do the White House press.

What do you think my advice is?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I think it's a complete waste of time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
No, I agree. I reject it, though. It's like just work hard and study a lot. I don't understand what college does for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
I have one thing that people don't have. I have drive. I totally acknowledge it. I'm not any smarter than the average person. No, seriously. If you want to be good, you can be good. So decide to do it. And what does college do for you? I want someone to tell me what's so important about college, unless you want to be like a lawyer or whatever. It's an unnecessary institution.

With young men in particular, it's a dramatic shift. In 2018, young men were approximately 21 points, 22 points in the Democrat direction. Now it's 13 points in the Republican direction. What explains that movement?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
In particular, there's a cultural vibe shift where – let's just take the MAGA hat. Some of these folks are wearing MAGA hats. That MAGA hat – you know this, Michael. In 2016, 2017, it was like the ultimate symbol of rebel energy. And now it's still that, but it's – It's way easier to wear that hat in public. In fact, it's desirable and it's cool. How did that happen?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
And now it's just – And now we gave out like 25,000 of them. Yeah.

Preborn separately fundraisers for overhead and administrative, so you can now know that every penny you give right now will go directly to the cause. I am a donor, so listen carefully. When we do this with Preborn, providing free ultrasounds to girls and women, it doubles the chance those moms will choose life. $140 gives five free ultrasounds and saves babies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie and Michael Knowles Debate Religion at AmFest
Just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day. And speaking of your end giving, I can't think of a better one than a $15,000 gift providing an ultrasound, saving thousands of lives for years to come. I'm a donor.

So the cultural realignment that we see is – which do you ascribe to? Does culture lead politics or is politics leading culture? You can make the argument this year that our politics led our cultures.

So you had the president's back throughout this entire process. Other people waxed and waned, and that's fine. I mean, that's their prerogative. Why did you continue to support President Trump resolutely throughout the process? Because you were kind of part of this—and obviously I was—this merry band of rebels.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I mean, is it that you just kind of loved being kind of the high IQ troll or was it just kind of like, you know, it's just because Michael, to your great credit and you deserve credit, is after January 6th, all this, you were like, no, I'm not going to say something bad about Trump.

Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Hey, Charlie, just talking about Vivek's comments, and I'm wondering why so many people are missing his main point. His main point is that the American education system has been a disaster, is a disaster, and so has been lazy American parenting over the last 50 years. It's a culture that is not producing American geniuses. That was his main point, and everybody seems to be skipping that.

Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Oh, absolutely. I do think, though, that the American people need to face some harsh realities that the way we've been doing things over the last several decades isn't the path to the to a good future. And people need to wake up about it.

Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Charlie, it's great to be with you. I'm sorry that I can't be on camera. The timing of this is really odd. I was walking down this morning to the Easter egg hunt at the White House. And I got my whole family with me at six o'clock in the morning. And I see that the Holy Father has died.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
And I thought, you know, of all the mornings to take off work, this is probably one of the worst ones I could have taken off. But alas, I'm glad that I could at least phone in because I think people are having a lot of trouble processing the news. I mean, you and I have talked about the Pope for years at this point. And I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
There are plenty of conservatives and conservative Catholics have had a lot of questions with Pope Francis and problems with some of the things he's done. So there's no sugarcoating, but I think when we consider his legacy, the most notable aspect of it to me is that left-right political analysis doesn't totally map onto ancient institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
That's kind of my biggest takeaway with Pope Francis, because whenever we think we can pin him down, we say, all right, he's Argentinian. He comes from this kind of left-wing economic background. Then he'll come out and say something like, gay marriage is a machination of the father of lies to deceive and confuse the children of God.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Every time we think he's going soft on some social issue, he'll say abortion is an assassination. Abortionists are hired assassins. You can't really pin him down. I think part of the reason for that is just the weight of the Catholic Church. It's just It's just been around for so long.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
And so we can't, our modern notions of politics, you know, they take you as far as they take you, but it would be a disservice to the man, really, to try to just minimize him in that way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
That's true. And this, what we're doing right now, has been happening for about 2,000 years, which is immediately when the seat is vacant, they call it sede vacante, when a pope dies, immediately everyone starts talking about who's the next one going to be? How does it happen? So the Cardinal Camerlengo comes out. This is his position in the Vatican. He's announced the pope's death.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
And there will be a period of about 15 to no more than 20 days of mourning. And then the College of Cardinals is going to assemble. The cardinals are bishops who are picked by the pope as sort of advisors and have positions within the Vatican. Cardinals under the age of 80 can vote for a pope in the College of Cardinals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
So they're not only within the College of Cardinals, but they're cardinal electors. They're all going to meet. There are about, I think, about 180 of them right now who are eligible to vote. They're going to go into the Sistine Chapel, and then you're not going to hear anything else. The way that you're going to know that they picked a pope is through smoke coming out of the Vatican.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
So, you know, classically, you're looking for the white smoke or the black smoke. And then when the white smoke comes up, then they're going to say, So who's it going to be? Because, again, not to sugarcoat some of the questions that have come up under the Francis pontificate, a lot of people are saying, is the next pope going to be really liberal?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Is he going to be, is he going to, I don't know, try to undermine the Catholic tradition or something like that? And again, it's really hard to predict these things, but just because Pope Francis has appointed now so many cardinals does not necessarily mean that the cardinals are politically liberal or, I don't know, side with Pope Francis on this issue or that issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
A lot of these popes are in the developing world. A lot of them are socially very, very conservative. The ones who are up for it right now, one who's been talked about is Cardinal Pizzabala. He's the Latin patriarch of Jerusalem. That would be quite interesting given what a touchpoint Jerusalem has been in the Israel-Gaza conflict. Another one who's up for it would be Peter Erdo.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
He's in Hungary, also considered moderate to conservative. There are a few who seem to be a little bit more liberal. That would be Cardinal Zuppi, Matteo Zuppi, or Cardinal Parolin. But again, we don't really know. You know, in some ways, it's kind of like the Supreme Court justices. You know, Republicans pick these Supreme Court justices, and then half of the time they go on and disappoint us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
They rule in ways that are totally different than we expected. And that could happen, you know, as well with popes. I mean, just use the example of John Paul II, who everyone loves. Don't forget, John Paul II was was a child of Vatican II, of this major ecumenical council, which resulted in all sorts of reforms.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Some of the reforms that followed the Second Vatican Council, some of us think had some problems with them, especially those of us who love the traditional Latin Mass, the traditional liturgy. And yet, Pope John Paul II, and Pope Benedict for that matter, considered perhaps even more conservative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Both of these guys come out of the Vatican Council, and yet they become some of the most stalwart, conservative-seeming figures of our lifetime. So I guess getting back to the top, that's what I mean when I say you can't totally map this stuff onto left-right politics. And also, you might think you've got a slam dunk with whichever cardinal is going to be the next pope.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
It doesn't have to be a cardinal. Technically, I suppose it could be me, but no one's picked up the phone yet to call me. So you think you might know what the next pontificate is going to look like. Really, at this point, we have no idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Right. What's he going to do? You know, not that anyone's called to ask me, however, but you have called to ask me, so I'm happy to answer, and maybe people in the Curia could listen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I think what would be really helpful to the church and the next pope is to have a pope who is not hostile to tradition, to the traditional liturgy, you know, what we call the mass of the ages, the traditional Latin mass. A lot of people think the traditional Latin mass is just the new mass that we have, but in Latin. That's not true. They're really different masses. The new mass
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
has removed a lot of prayers. The new Mass actually could be said in Latin, but it usually is not. You know, the reason I mention this is not just because I'm a fuddy-duddy and I have bow ties or something. It's because there is so much beauty in this Mass that endured substantially unchanged for about 1,400 years. There's so much beauty that it's attracting a lot of people back to the church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
You saw this in France just on Easter Sunday. You had a record number of baptisms. In the UK now, you've got this massive resurgence in the Catholic Church. In England, for goodness sakes, this is the birthplace. This is the land of Henry VIII. And yet now Catholics are outnumbering Anglicans. I mean, it's this unthinkable, I don't know what you want to call it, springtime for the church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
A lot of the people who are converting are converting not because of innovations or electric guitars or something, but because of the old smells and bells. Listen, I play electric guitar. I'm not totally opposed to electric guitar.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I think you could say this, Charlie, even from the evangelical perspective. Where people are returning, it's where they find orthodoxy. It's not where they want more of the world. They want something a little different. a little higher than the world, at least for Sunday morning. That would be what I would hope for in a pope.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Well, officially, there's no campaigning. There's no jockeying. And of course, the reality might differ from the official way it's supposed to go. Yeah, I don't know about that. I could see us having, I bet we could have a pope within three weeks or maybe just after three weeks. I don't think it's going to take very long.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I think that people have been expecting this now ever since Pope Francis's most recent illness. So I think things are going to move rather quickly. I think the number of cardinals who are really papabile is pretty small. I think you could basically count them on one hand. So I don't think it's going to be long now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I mean, just as young people are returning to the church because they want stability, they want order, they want orthodoxy, I think the Vatican wants some stability too. And so I think it's going to happen fast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
I mean, I hear they're doing that whole thing thing again. Here we go again. Just a waste of time. He is doing he is doing a great job because he's doing a great job. Thank you. Ask the Hooties how he's doing. Ask the Hooties how much dysfunction he has. There's none. Pete's doing a great job. Everybody's happy with him. We have the highest recruitment numbers I think they've had in 28 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Signal Chat...And Another Pope?
No, he's doing a great job. It's just fake news. They just bring up stories. I guess it sounds like disgruntled employees. You know, he was put there to get rid of a lot of bad people, and that's what he's doing. So you don't always have friends when you do that.

Die Leute liebten ihn. Er ist in deinem Haus jeden Abend. Ich bin ein anderes Tier. Wenn du auf nationaler TV bist, There's really no home base. And I suppose if I was the announcer for a team, yeah, maybe I'd have a kind of like a farewell tour. But there's like, I'm all over the place.

You know, people have different rooting interests as opposed to a broadcaster like a Vinnie or a Marty Brenneman in Cincinnati, who was there for 45 years and actually succeeded me after I did three years back in the early 70s. But no, I mean, I think when the time comes, I'll pretty much say, hey, thank you very much and see you.

That's right. That's exactly right, Dan. Ja, ich denke, wenn du dir die Geschichte machst, machst du eine Verschuldung für das Geschäft. Also will ich nicht die Geschichte sein. Ich will der Narrator sein oder die Verbindung oder die Kondition oder was auch immer. Aber nicht die Geschichte. Nein.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Aber die meisten kommen aus den Schulterprogrammierungen und Talkshows. Es ist sehr schwer für einen Play-by-Play-Anwärter in diesem Bereich zu kommen. Denn die Leute wollen das Spiel sehen. Es ist ein völlig anderes Tier, wenn du an einem Show gehst, zum ersten Mal oder was auch immer du hast, und mit den anderen zu diskutieren. Das ist ein anderes Tier.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Wenn man Play-by-Play macht, hat man keine Zeit, sich in diese Diskussionen und Dialogen zu beschäftigen. Das macht man nicht. Für mich ist es das größte Beispiel für Live-Television von Sport-Eventen. Zurück in 1980, in den Olympischen Spielen in Lake Placid. Natürlich wissen wir, was da passiert ist. Aber vorher war mein Partner Ken Dryden, der große Goalie für die Montrealer Kanadier.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Aber für mich ist die ganze Sache, da zu sein, da zu wollen, da zu lieben. Als Kind, als mein Vater mich zu meinem ersten Fußballspiel in Ebbetsfield nahm, konnten wir laufen. Wir lebten in Brooklyn. Wir konnten zu Ebbetsfield laufen. Und ich erinnere mich, oh mein Gott, das ist einfach das Größte. In the world. And it's the first thing I remember.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Er ist 30 Jahre alt, hat mehrere Vesna-Trophäe und Stanley-Cups gewonnen. Kenny und ich haben uns in Moskau getroffen, etwa zwei Monate vor den Olympischen Spielen, um die Olympischen Teams zu scouten. Sie spielten in einem Turnier in Moskau. Alle Teams waren da, außer für die Vereinigten Staaten, die nicht teilhaben. Aber die Sowjeten waren da, die Kanadier, die Finnen, die Schweden.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Und die erste Nacht treffen Kenny und ich. Und Kenny ist sehr erudit. Und er sah fast aus wie ein Professor. Er hat alles, aber die Pipe und die Gläser und die Slippers. Aber ein sehr beeindruckender Mann. Extrem gut gelesen und er hat einige fantastische Bücher geschrieben. Kenny spricht mit mir über die Unterschiede zwischen internationalem Hockey und Nationalen Hockey League Hockey.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Die größeren Räume, dass es ein physischer Spiel in der Nationalen Hockey League ist. Er schließt und sagt, ob das etwas ist, was die amerikanische Publikation interessiert. Ich sagte, ja. Aber Kenny, lass mich dich an die Welt des Fernsehens vorstellen. Can you say it in eight seconds? That's it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
So the play-by-play genre is completely different than going on a three-hour talk show and spilling your guts about everything in the world.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
And I remember thinking, man, how great would it be to get a job where you get in for free, you get to see all the games. And I got that job and I've never forgotten that. And so that's why I think I still have the passion I do for this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Vielleicht werden mich Leute auf solchen Shows kennenlernen. Weil jetzt kann ich sprechen und ich habe viel mehr Zeit, ein bisschen mehr Zeit aufzunehmen. Und ich bin nicht anwesend darauf, meine Persönlichkeit zu zeigen, wer ich bin, aber es wäre in so etwas wie diesem Show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
oder auf anderen Shows oder von anderen Menschen interviewt werden über die Jahre über bestimmte Events oder was auch immer oder über die Art sprechen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Das Spiel ist heilig. Das Spiel ist das wichtigste Ding, auf jeden Fall. Nun, ich kann helfen. Ich kann dich unterhalten, aber das Spiel ist immer noch das Wesentliche, was ich tue. Du kannst es nicht verlieren. Vielleicht wirst du mich sehen, wenn das Spiel ein kompletter Schuss ist. Dann kann ich ein bisschen mehr aufs Feld gehen. Ich denke, die Leute genießen das.

I know that the first year we were on Amazon, we were doing a game in Denver. I'm working with Kirk Herbstreit, who I didn't know until we started working together. Kirk loves football more than anybody on the planet. And the game was so terrible. It was only our fourth game. And I said early in the fourth quarter, I said... Ist es möglich, dass ein Spiel so schlecht ist, dass es gut ist?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Und Kurt sagt, nein, warte einen Sekunden. Und dann ging das Spiel in den Overtime. Es war verrückt. Es war 9-9, keine Touchdowns, Penalties up the kazoo.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
But people loved that. They loved that. And then we had a shot coming out of commercial going into overtime and there's a shot from outside the stadium and, you know, a few hundred people are leaving and going to the parking lot. And Kirk says... Es ist Overtime, wie können sie weg? Und ich sagte, sie haben genug gesehen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Also, ich meine, das ist so viel Persönlichkeit, die ich in das Spiel reinigen kann.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Na, es war nicht, dass ich zu alt war. Schau, schau. Ich habe 900 bis 1.000 NFL-Spiele gespielt. Nicht alle waren großartig, natürlich. Ich habe auch viele von denen gespielt. Aber ich denke, ich bin mit dem Publikum verbunden. Viele Leute sagten, das ist genau so, wie ich mich fühle.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Nun, es ist wahrscheinlich der Perfektionist in mir. Und ich mag es nicht, nur perfekt zu sein. Ich versuche es sicher zu sein, es ist fast unmöglich, aber es hängt davon ab. Ich meine, es gab Zeiten, Ich werde mich nicht so aufgeregt fühlen, dass ich denke, warum hätte ich das nicht gedacht. Es sind meistens Dinge, die schnell und instantan passieren.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich bin einfach nur mit mir selbst verabschiedet, dass ich es nicht schneller durchdenke. Es geht mehr darum, dass ich mich nicht verletze, weil ich weiß, dass es bald ein anderes Spiel wird. Ich will nicht einen Ton nennen, aber vielleicht wirst du nächste Woche das perfekte Spiel spielen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Sie versteht es. Sie lässt mich einfach, wenn ich etwas über die Art und Weise, wie ich gespielt habe, müde. Sie kriegt es, also lass uns, und ich wende nicht wirklich, ich meine, es ist so, okay, lass uns, lass uns ein bisschen weitergehen, äh, deal with it, make it quick, don't belabor it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich glaube, es sind beide. Ich liebe es, in ein Stadion zu gehen. Ich mache es immer noch. Ich bin aufgeregt. Wir kommen dort natürlich drei Stunden vor jedem Spiel und ich schaue, wie es sich entwickelt. Und jetzt weißt du, dass du einen Telekast machen wirst. Und ich bin glücklich genug, dass ich viele Jahre lang weiß, dass eine gute Teil der Nation es sehen wird. And I love the craft.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Genau. Es gibt eine Sprache im Jüdischen, du willst kein Out the Cocker sein. Das bedeutet, du wirst 20 Jahre oder 30 Jahre leben, was auch immer. Ich liebe es, mit Leuten zu sein. Du und ich haben uns über die 1986-Amerikanische Champions-League-Serie und die Superbowl von 2008 geredet. Das ist gut. Aber du musst im Moment leben, wenn du kannst. Ich habe immer gefühlt, dass es wichtig ist.

Der Vergangenheit ist der Vergangenheit. Es ist wundervoll. Aber bleib nicht dort leben. Ich denke auch nicht so viel über die Zukunft. Im Moment, in der Vergangenheit, wach dich jeden Tag auf und denk dir, hey, das ist cool, ich bin lebendig und hier gehen wir.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Kann sein, kann sein, aber versuche dich nicht in die Vergangenheit zu versetzen. Ich genieße einfach Leben, ich bin ein interessierter Mensch. Ich würde gerne jeden Tag aufwachen und die Papiere lesen, auf die Internetseite gehen und herausfinden, was in der Welt passiert.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Nicht nur in der Sportwelt, sondern ich würde einfach versuchen, aktuell, topisch zu bleiben und die Events des Tages zu diskutieren. Oder was im Moment stattfindet. Das ist wichtig für mich. Was ist das Beste und das Schlimmste daran, 80 zu sein? Well, I guess the worst stuff is thinking about it.

Ich habe viele tolle Dinge erreicht, weil ich in der richtigen Zeit war. Ich habe die Welt-Serie auf nationaler TV gemacht, als ich 27 war. Ich habe mit den Cincinnati Reds gearbeitet, wir haben den Pendant gewonnen. NBC verwendet die Teamanwälte. Ich dachte, das war mein Traum. Ich war in der Hochschule und dachte, ich möchte die Welt-Serie machen.

Weil 40 nur älter aussieht, an dem Punkt. Es hat geklappt. Ich denke, ich habe mich früh darauf gefühlt, all das zu tun, was ich erwartet habe, was mir unglaublich gelungen ist. Du hast es überlebt. Du hast deine Erwartungen überlebt. Und ich kann es schneller machen. Keine Frage.

Als Kind, als ich erwartet habe, dass ich die World Series tue, dass ich die Olympischen Spiele tue, die Superbowl existierte nicht mal an diesem Punkt. Ich habe sie alle bekommen. Kentucky Derbys, Indianapolis 500s. Ich meine, das ganze Ding. Es ist verrückt. Ich fühle mich in diesem Bereich erheblich. Und ich habe über all diese Dinge gewünscht, Dan.

I think I thought that... having been introduced to it that early. And I think maybe growing up in Brooklyn and then we moved to Los Angeles, same year the Dodgers did all crazy things. So I listened to Vinny. From the time I was six years old I heard Vinny.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
I really do. And I think, you know, I try to... I can't reinvent the wheel, obviously, at this particular point. But I think there are some tweaks you can make along the line. But I feel like the fundamentals are there. I mean, it's almost like going back to journalism class in the 10th grade at Hamilton High School here in Los Angeles. And it's who, what, when, where, how and why.

No one calls him Vinny. But that's how I knew him and we became very good friends obviously through the years and Ich habe mich erfreut, weil sie mich vor dem Eröffnungsdienst des Dodgers-Stadions vor dem Eröffnungsdienst 2016 gefragt haben. Und er wollte, dass ich das tue. Und ich war sehr begeistert und erfreut, dass ich das tue. Aber ich denke, dass ich ihn gehört habe. Und er hat mich...

Ich liebte Baseball so sehr. Und dann liebte ich auch die anderen Sportarten. Mein Vater war ein gigantischer Sportfan. Wir haben die New York Rangers gesehen, als ich sieben Jahre alt war.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
In der Hochschule wusste ich genau, was ich tun wollte. Und dann, als es an der Zeit kam, in die Uni zu gehen, I wanted to go to a school where it afforded you the opportunity on the campus station to do games. Now, it's not like it is now where every school has that. But now, in those years, and we had moved from New York to Los Angeles, I wanted to stay out west.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I wanted to go away to school, but not far. So Arizona State had one of the very, very few radio and TV companies programs with the opportunity for the student to do the games. So we picked Arizona State.

I say we because it's my father and I.

Ich war bereit zu gehen und all das, was ich brauchte, war diese eine Chance, diese eine Pause. Und es kam in Hawaii, aus allen Orten.

Ja, das war es. Das war, als wir nach Kalifornien geflogen sind. Meine Mutter war eine Kombination von Phyllis Diller und Joan Rivers. Sie war ein Charakter. Sie liebte Pranks.

Those are the fundamentals. And I try to stick to those. And I try to... Ich glaube, ich habe eine sehr gute Verbindung. Ich glaube, ich habe ein ziemlich gutes Verständnis für die generelle Sportfans und was die meisten der Publikationen wollen. Ich denke, ich habe es.

Und ich versuchte immer, in meinem Gehirn zu erwischen, die Sportbücher in Vegas und die Leute lachen wie verrückt, wenn ich so etwas sage. Und jetzt, natürlich, ist es so, die Linien und das ganze Ding und Über-Unders. Aber es hat Spaß gemacht, das in diesen Jahren zu tun.

Es hat Spaß gemacht, weil du die Veranstaltung ein wenig gesteigert hast, obwohl die NFL nicht wollte, dass ich das stoppe, richtig? Ich meine, sie könnten ihre Zähne bewegen. Oh, ich wünschte, du würdest es nicht tun. Nicht wirklich. Es war okay für sie auch.

Sie sind nicht bereit, Eltern zu sein. Wir hatten nicht viel Geld. Wir lebten in einem Ein-Bedroom-Apartment. auf der Oceane Avenue in Brooklyn, bis ich 11 Jahre alt war.

Meine Mutter war fantastisch, mein Vater war ein unglaublicher Mann, sehr klug. Er ist 18 Jahre alt, er ist ein Vater und er hat mich zu allem auf der Welt eingeladen.

Und nochmals, ich bin so glücklich, weil so viele Kinder nicht die Ausbringung haben, die ich hatte. Und wenn wir in Brooklyn lebten, hat jemand einmal gesagt, oh, Al hatte einen silbernen Spunen.

Wir liebten es. Ich war damals verheiratet und Linda und ich hatten ein Apartment am Fuß von Diamond Head auf dem 11. Flur. Ein kleines Apartment. Dan, I would wake up in the morning, I'd go swimming, either there's a pool downstairs or go into the ocean, go into the Pacific Ocean and come back, get dressed, go to work.

Oh, es ist, es ist keine Frage. Und einige von uns sind in diesem Bereich auch. Ich denke, ich bin sehr ähnlich wie meine Brüder und Joe Buck und Jim Nance. Und sie schreien nicht das Spiel an dich.

I'm on television twice a day. I'm writing a column for a local paper. And by the way, a couple of really odd things about this. So in 1970, I'm doing University of Hawaii football, the Rainbows. It was before they were the Rainbow Warriors. They were the Rainbows at that point. Und es war ein Mann, der für sie gespielt hat, für den ich keine Ahnung hatte.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich habe keine Erinnerung daran, was sein Name war, was er gemacht hat. Aber ich erinnere mich, dass Jim Nance dieses Jahr ein Spiel in Kansas City spielt. Und Taylor Swiftes Vater, Scott, kommt in die Strecke und sagt, du weißt, ich habe 1970 für die University of Hawaii gespielt und Al Michaels war der Anwalt. Und es war wahr.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich habe es aufgeschaut und ich erinnere mich nicht an ihn. Ich glaube nicht, dass er mich erinnert, aber er wusste, dass ich 1970 der Anwalt für das Hawaii-Team war. Und es ging damals um Baseball. Ich habe drei Jahre Baseball und Hawaii gewonnen. Wir wurden dann der erfolgreichste Minor-League-Franchise. Wir haben in 1970 fast eine halbe Million Leute gewonnen.

Und wir haben unsere Division gewonnen. Wir sind in den Playoffs gegen die Spokane-Indianer, die auf der Dodger-Farmteam waren. Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell, Bobby Valentine. Managiert von Tommy Lasorda. Und Lasorda hat sich auf die Geschichte, wie er mich entdeckt hat, ausgetauscht. Weil er immer mit Al Campanis, dem Generalmanager, nach jedem Spiel gesprochen hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
und gibt ihm ein Rekapitulier von dem, was passiert ist. Eines Nachts sagt er, er ruft Campanus nach, ich glaube, wir haben eine Sieben-Serie gespielt, weil es die Reise-Situation war, die Teams würden die ganze Woche kommen. Also Spokane ist da, ich konnte all diese Leute kennenlernen. Und er ruft Campanus und sagt, hey, du weißt, Valentine hat das gemacht, Buckner hat das gemacht.

Hey Al, da ist ein Junge hier, der die Spiele auf dem Radio macht. Dieser Junge ist wirklich gut. Ich weiß, du hast Vinny, aber du solltest dir an diesen Jungen aufmerksam machen.

Tommy sagt, ich habe mich aus den letzten vier Spielen ausgedrückt und bin nicht im Clubhaus, um ihn zu hören. Tommi hat es aufgeräumt, aber er hat drei aus vier gewonnen. In der dritten Serie wurde er in der zweiten Runde gewonnen. Und in Hawaii war das Klubhaus weit über dem Mittelfeldplatz. Es ist also nicht so, als ob er durch einen Tunnel in den Dugout kommen würde. Tommi wird serenadiert.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Er ist 500 Meter vom Spielplatz und er hört auf die Radio. Die nächste Nacht kommt er raus und wird gewonnen, wenn er das Line-Up-Card rausbringt. Jetzt hat er zwei volle Spiele und in der sechsten Spiele hat er in der sechsten oder siebenten Runde gespielt. Aufgrund all dessen, der Umpire, der ihn ausgemacht hat, war Bruce Fremming, der 35, 40 Jahre im Spiel war.

Ich bin durch Radio geboren und da kannst du vielleicht etwas mehr aufregend sein, um den Publikum vielleicht näher zu bringen. Auf der TV ist es visuell. Auf der TV kannst du fast ohne Wörter wegkommen, weil die Leute den Verb sehen. Der Verb ist ein visuelles Verb. Also, in der heutigen Welt kann man nicht alle anrufen. Man kann nur die Mehrheit der Publikation anrufen.

Und unser Manager ist Chuck Tanner. Und ich habe all diese Leute, ich meine, es war verrückt. Also Le Sorda nimmt Kredite dafür, mich zu finden. Und dann finden sich die Cincinnati Reds über mich.

Steve Garvey sollte in der Hall of Fame sein. Der Fakt, dass Steve Garvey nicht in der Hall of Fame ist, ist absurd. Es ist verrückt. I don't care about this war shit and all this other, whatever it is, right? It's all about analytics, Dan. Come on. Please. Put Steve Garvey in the Hall of Fame.

um zumindest die Möglichkeit zu haben, dass jemand mich hören und mir einen Break geben kann. Und natürlich ist das in Hawaii passiert. Das war der große Break. Aber ich habe mich vorbereitet. Es war nicht so, als würde ich einen Tag woken und gesagt haben, dass ich ein Sportcaster werden möchte. Ich wollte es, seit ich ein Kind war. Ich habe über alles geträumt.

Und ich habe alle Dinge gemacht, die ich tun musste. Aber wiederum, ich gehe zurück zu diesem Naive. Weil ich denke, wow, ich werde das und das machen. Und dann gehe ich. Wenn es keinen Jack Quinn in meinem Leben in Hawaii gibt, weiß ich nicht, was passiert. Ich weiß es nicht. Oh, aber es ist nicht Glück. Es ist nicht Glück, all die Dinge zu bekommen, Al. Du brauchst den ersten Break.

Der erste Break ist riesig, riesig. Und ich endete mit dem Break in Hawaii. Und wir sind das erfolgreiche Minor League Team. Und ich werde bemerkt. Und das führt zu Cincinnati.

Ja, ich würde nicht enttäuscht sagen. Pete war ein guter Freund, in Erinnerung auf jemanden, den ich gespielt habe. Jeden Tag für drei Jahre. Er war ein guter Freund. Ich habe ihn zwei Monate bevor er gestorben ist gesehen. Er ist hierhergekommen, weil sie ein Dokumentar über Pete gemacht haben. Die Sache mit Pete Rose. Ich habe niemals einen Spieler in jedem Sport mehr genossen als Pete.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Denn Pete war für mich das Geheimnis, was ein Athlet jeden Tag sein sollte. Jeden Tag in den Ballpark, jeden Tag. Und er hat ihn in einem Frühjahrs-Trainings-Spiel und in der siebten Welt-Serie gespielt. Es ist keine Unterschiede. Er hat es genauso gespielt. Ball raus, alles raus. Also, ich wünschte, er hätte reingekommen. Ich verstehe, was er gemacht hat. Was er gemacht hat, war schlecht.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich verstehe es. Ich verstehe es. Aber, ich meine, um ihn nicht zu beurteilen, ich weiß nicht, was das bedeutet, an diesem bestimmten Punkt. Ich kann mich über Garvey enttäuschen, denn Garvey muss da sein. Und ich verstehe, warum Pete nicht eingeladen wurde. Aber für mich war das ein Rekord, das es unmöglich war, Ty Cobbs Rekord zu brechen. Unmöglich. Und er hat es gemacht.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Und es ist nicht so, dass Pete all die Talent in der Welt hatte. Er hat es gemacht, aber er hat seinen Arsch aufgemacht. Und er war viel Spaß, um da zu sein.

Do you have an error that haunts you? Nein, wirklich nicht. Und Vini konnte das irgendwie überleben, glaube ich. Ja, er hat es nach dem Spiel gut gemacht.

Und Leslie ging zum Boston College und sie hat immer das Boston College-Stuff mitgebracht. So in the commercial break, Leslie said something about somebody who was in the game at Boston College.

Nein, ich habe keine. Ich habe einen Repräsentanten. Marvin Demoss hat mich für... Aber Marvin macht die Verhandlungen und ist in vielen Fällen ein Mentor.

True. Yeah, and now we're kind of immersed in information that's available to us. I think we live in a world, Dan, of people talking about TMI, too much information. I talk about TMM. There's too much misinformation. So one of the hardest things now is I have access to everything. The fans have access to almost everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
I have access more than they do because I can pick up the phone, call people, meet with people and get some insight and information that they can't. Aber ich versuche, so viel zu studieren, wie ich kann. Ich schaue so viel Tape, wie ich kann, bevor ich ein Spiel mache. Ich schaue die Tape anders. Die Analysten schauen es anders. Sie schauen es anders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Sie suchen die Dinge, die sie als Analysten bringen können. Was ich schaue, ist, wenn ich ein Spiel mache, wie bei den Cowboys, Ich möchte wissen, was die Cowboys mit der Broadcast selbst gemacht haben. Was ist das, was in den Spielen passiert ist? Was wurde darüber gesprochen? Was wurde darüber gesprochen?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich will nicht nach 40 Millionen Leuten, die den Cowboys auf Fox gesehen haben, eine Geschichte erzählen, die letzte Woche erzählt wurde. Ich referiere es.

South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
It'll come back in by the time I get to the street, though. That's the problem. I find that Look, you do all of the reading you can, you do all of the research that you can, and then you just have to back it off a little bit as you get to the game. Slow it down. Time out. You can't get all of this stuff in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
I would say, of all the stuff we are prepared for, we have production meetings, we have big meetings, the morning of the game and all of that. We talk about a lot of things of which maybe 10% get into the game. That's a lot. 10. Es ist nicht so, dass es dem Spiel zutrifft. Es ist nicht so, dass es dem Spiel zutrifft. Es ist nicht so, dass es dem Spiel zutrifft.

Keine Frage. Wenn es einen Angstmoment gibt, ist es natürlich, wenn du auf die Luft kommst. Und ich habe 11 Superbowl-Spiele auf der nationalen TV gemacht. Ich weiß, was ich in diese Länge schauen werde. Wenn du 100 Millionen Leute hast, oder was auch immer die Zahl ist an diesem Tag, bist du wie ein Horsen, das aus der Startlinie kommt.

Du willst nicht stürzen. Du willst nicht runterfallen. Geh sauber raus. Und ich weiß, dass ich jedes Mal, wenn ich einen Superbowl mache, Du gehst los und es ist wie wenn die Spieler sagen, du nimmst den ersten Schuss und dann bist du zurück, wo du gehörst. Ich bin hier schon vorher. Ich bin bereit zu gehen. Es ist so erstaunlich. Aber die Angst kommt zu Beginn.

Wenn du gespannt bist, wenn du da sein willst, wenn du dir das Spiel vorstellst, du kannst nicht warten, um das Spiel zu starten. So lange das da ist in meiner Fibre, werde ich weitergehen.

Du musst daran arbeiten, du musst hart daran arbeiten. Ich denke, du musst auch optimistisch sein. Ich denke, du musst denken, dass du es tun kannst. Und ich würde sagen, und ich sage das, wenn ich mit einigen meiner Highschool-Kinder oder College-Kinder spreche, die interessiert sind für das Geschäft, Denke positiv. Ich kann das tun. Ich kann das tun.

Und ich will nicht einen Pastor oder jemanden ausdrücken, weil ich keine religiöse oder spirituelle Person bin. Aber ich denke, wenn du negative Gedanken hast und wenn du denkst, warum es nicht getan werden kann, dann wird das die Möglichkeit überwinden, was getan werden kann.

Das andere ist, dass du dich vielleicht für eine Enttäuschung befestigt hast, weil du denkst, du kannst es machen, aber du bekommst keinen Abstand. Und ich weiß nicht, wenn ich den initialen Abstand nicht bekomme, könnte ich unglaublich enttäuscht sein. Ich weiß es nicht.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Vielleicht hätte ich etwas anderes in diesem Geschäft gemacht, aber ich habe den Abstand von Abständen bekommen und es hat all diese tollen Dinge geführt. And that's where the luck comes in. And you're going to need some luck. And I tell these kids too, I said, you know, it helps to have a rabbit's foot in your pocket. But think that it's going to be there. You have to.

Du hast immer eine generell positive Person gewesen? Immer. Immer. Ja. War das in deiner Wohnung? Ja, ich würde sagen, ja. Ich wurde ermutigt. Und noch einmal, ich hatte sehr starke Eltern, die mich ermutigt haben und mich aufgenommen haben und all das. Das war großartig.

Oh nein, an diesem Punkt habe ich mich bereits eröffnet. Das war 1983. Ich hatte bereits viele Dinge gemacht. Ich habe die Welt-Serie gemacht. Lake Placid, er hat viel von meinem Erfolg gesehen. Ja, es war einfach schrecklich, jemanden zu verlieren, wenn er 56 Jahre alt ist und ich 38 Jahre alt bin. Und ich habe auch für meine Brüder gefühlt.

Und wir haben darüber gesprochen, dass er nicht warten kann, bis das Spiel anfängt. Ich verstehe das. Das ist genau so, wie ich mich fühle. Du gehst ins Stadion. Los geht's. Lass uns loswerden.

Well, number one, I don't dwell on Ich habe keine Angst vor dem Alter. Ich habe keine Angst vor der Mordkrankheit. Ich habe das schon als ich jünger war. Ich bin in meinen Zwanzigern, ich denke, ich werde um 40 sterben. Hier bin ich. Ich weiß nicht, vielleicht ist es nur... ein Mindset von Leben im Moment. Leben heute. Leben heute. Nicht gestern, nicht morgen. Heute.

Nein, ich meine, nicht alles ist smooth geflogen. Ich meine, es gab keine Bumpen und Schwellen auf dem Weg. Nichts gigantisches. Aber es ist so, okay, lass uns einfach losgehen, einfach weiter fliegen. Es ist wie, du bist auf einem Flugzeug und es ist Turbulenz. Du kommst aus dem Flugzeug und der Himmel wird klar sein.

Ja, hey, das Leben ist sein eigenes Selbst, wie es Dan Jenkins gesagt hat. Du hast über Emotionen gesprochen und Regretten und all das.

Well, this has to be... Es muss eine Beziehung sein. Ich würde es gerne sagen, aber ich hatte einige unglaubliche Partner. Ich meine, ich gehe zurück zu Tim McCarver und Jim Palmer. Eine Drei-Mann-Busse ist hart, sehr hart. Das ist die einzige, in der ich gesagt habe, wir haben die meisten... Es war besser als ein Drei als ein Zwei. Also hatte ich Jim und Tim.

Ich gehe zurück zu Ken Dryden, das ist eine Ein-Auf-1980-Olympics und wir haben 84 und 88 auch gemacht. Frank Gifford und Dan Deardorff hatten, wir hatten eine wunderschöne Zeit, 11 Jahre zusammen. Ich gehe zu John Madden, sieben Jahre. Chris Collinsworth ist wie ein Bruder für mich, wie ein Bruder. 13 Jahre mit Chris, er ist immer noch stark, er ist großartig.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Das wurde etwas, was Chris Collinsworth da rausgebracht hat. Aber ich glaube, es war ein bisschen enttäuschend. Ich kann zwei Stücke von einem Steak in der Halbzeit nehmen und Chris hat es in eine 6-Kurse-Mischelin-3-Star-Meal gemacht.

Und ich habe in drei Jahren entwickelt und mit Kirk Herbstreit ist es sehr schnell gegangen. Ich bin sehr, sehr glücklich, weil ich diese fantastischen Partner hatte.

Durch meine Karriere habe ich mehr als 100 verschiedene Partner gelistet. Ich habe Motorräder auf Eis gefahren, Auto-Rennen mit Jackie Stewart und Diving mit Ken Sitzberger gemacht. Doch Rivers wäre ein anderer. Doch und ich haben nur zusammen gearbeitet.

Die längste war mit Chris Collinsworth. 13 Jahre, fantastisch. Und wiederum, John Madden, sieben Jahre, also zweimal so lang. McCarver und Palmer und ich, ich denke, auf und auf, weil wir die Rechte verloren haben und sie zurückgebracht haben.

Ich weiß nicht, ob ich eine 45- oder 50-Jahre-Reputation in einer Nacht verletzen werde, ohne dass ich etwas unglaublich Ungewöhnliches tue, was ich nicht vorstellen kann. Aber ich denke, dass jedes Spiel wie eine Audition ist. Hey, ich muss heute wirklich gut sein. Ich muss besser sein, als ich jemals gewesen bin. Und das ist die Attitüde, die ich in jedem Spiel nehme.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Aber trotzdem, es ist wichtig für die Publikation. Ich denke, es ist wichtig. Sie haben sich eingeladen. Sie wollen mich am besten. Ich kann nicht immer am Top des Spiels sein. Ich kann es nicht. Ich versuche es aber immer. Ich versuche es immer. Ich versuche es immer. Ich versuche es immer. Ich versuche es immer. No, I think I've come close a few times, but there's always something.

No matter what it is, I'll think about something after, how did I miss that? You know, and I should have, could have, might have. So, no, there's no game. To pitch a perfect game over three hours on national television is almost impossible. But at least, you know, you try to come as close as you can.

Dave Henderson hat den berühmten Home-Run für den Red Sox, 6-5. Aber dann kamen die Angels zurück in die Mitte des Neuners und haben das Spiel gespielt. Die Bässe wurden ausgelöst und haben gewonnen. Und Doug DeCincy und Bobby Gritsch konnten den gewonnenen Run nach Hause. Das Spiel geht ins 10. Spiel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Das ist das Donny Moore-Spiel. Das ist das Donny Moore-to-Dave-Henderson-Spiel. Genau richtig. Und jetzt sind es extra Spiele. Und die Angels haben einen Mann als ersten Bässe, Jerry Naren. Ja, genau. Und Jim Rice geht all the way back and makes the catch against the left field fence. And as he reaches up, he hauls it in and has to look into his glove to make sure he caught it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
So now the game goes to the 11th, where the Red Sox win. And the Red Sox eventually will go on to win Game 6 and 7. And they go to the World Series, where they run into the whole Bill Buckner thing against the Mets. So now I'm driving home, because it's a home game for me. And I'm on the freeway and I'm thinking... I think that's about as good as I can call a baseball game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
And then I'm going, wait a minute, what was Jim Rice doing playing so deep against Gary Pettis? And then I think, well, hell, the night before, Pettis had hit one over Rice's head in the fourth game. And I was going... Warum hätte ich das nicht gedacht?

In anderen Worten, so glücklich wie ich war und so stolz wie ich war, dass ich den Job gemacht habe, habe ich gesagt, verdammt, es ist nur etwas da. Es war ein Weg in den neunten Eingang eines perfekten Spiels. Ich habe es verpasst.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Nicht alles, aber ich kann mich an viele Dinge erinnern. Es ist lustig, im jüngeren Vintage ist es schwieriger, aber wenn man sich zurückzieht zu den Sachen, die ich in meiner Karriere gemacht habe, ja, ich kann mich an viele Dinge erinnern.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ja, ich würde sagen, die Superbowl nach der 08-Saison, die Arizona Cardinals gegen die Pittsburgh Steelers. Es war John Maddens letzte Broadcast. Ich wusste das nicht bis April, aber es war John und ich haben unser siebtes Jahr zusammen gemacht. Wir hatten eine wundervolle Zeit. Ich dachte, John war brillant an dem Tag.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Schön, hier zu sein. Du kannst mich nicht entfernen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Das Spiel war verrückt, weil, zuerst einmal, was machen die Arizona Cardinals da? Sie haben 50-7 verloren in New England in der 15.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ja, ein 9-7-Team. Und dann hat Larry Fitzgerald eine Postseason für die Asien. Kurt Warner ist der Verteidiger. Sie haben Philadelphia im Champions-League-Spiel gewonnen. Die Leute haben sich gefragt, was die Cardinals, diese Moribund-Franchise, da machen. Die Cardinals haben sich eingelassen. Das war das Spiel, das zwei der wichtigsten Spiele in der NFL-Historie.

James Harrisons 100-Jahre-Interzeption-Return am Ende der Halbzeit, als Arizona die Linie nahm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich dachte, ich habe den Anruf verstanden, weil er auf der Seite ging. Das ist verrückt. Und mittlerweile geht er nicht nur 100 Jahre, sondern der Klub ist raus. Also, wenn er nicht in die Endzone kommt... Und Fitzgerald schießt ihn runter. mit etwa zweieinhalb Minuten Zeit. Und dann hat Roethlisberger Pittsburgh auf einem tollen Dreh, einen unglaublichen Dreh.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich glaube, er hat drei dritte Passen gemacht, geht tief runter und dann hat Santonio Holmes den Fuss. Sports Illustrated hat das Bild, du hast drei Kardinal-Verteidiger um ihn herum. Und somehow ist Roethlisberger einfach seine dritte oder vierte Wahl an diesem Punkt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
puts it up in the air perfectly, Holmes gets his feet down in, and I remember, I walked out of that game thinking, yeah, I think that's about as good as I can do, but again, I would pick it apart later on, but that will always be one of my favorite telecasts ever, because it was John Maddens last game, and John was fabulous, but he waited till April, and when John retired, he made it very simple, he just said, it's time, it's time, he knew it, and that was the end of that,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Ich denke, das Wichtigste ist die Leidenschaft. Und die Leute haben mir natürlich gesagt, dass ich nicht mehr vertreten werde. Und ich würde, wenn ich die Leidenschaft nicht hätte. Es ist wirklich einfach. Ich denke, ich werde wissen, wenn es definitiv Zeit ist, wenn ich den Job nicht machen kann. Das ist eine andere Sache. Gesundheit spielt natürlich auch eine Rolle, Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Keine Frage. Ich brauche das nicht. Und die Leute sagen, warum machst du das nicht wie ein Victory Tour? Nein, worüber reden wir denn? Zuerst einmal wäre es mir überraschend, das zu tun, um das Land herum zu gehen. Oh, das ist das Haus Lascaux. Wer kümmert sich? Ich meine, für mich ist es kein großes Problem.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
South Beach Sessions - Al Michaels
Well, yeah, but I mean, I appreciate, I get a lot of very nice feedback and have for a good part of my career and I'm very appreciative of it, but I don't need to be told, oh... A lot of people tell me, because I'm old enough and they're young enough, that I'm the soundtrack of their lives in sports. And it's wonderful to hear that. Look, there were soundtracks of my life too.

Du hast mich mit deinem Spiel in den Hockey-Sport eingeladen und es ist für dich seit dem Zeitpunkt alles runtergegangen. Das ist Nummer eins. Nichts wird das niemals sein. Aber es wäre für mich überraschend, diese Tour zu haben. Vince Scully war ein guter Freund und der größte Baseball-Anhänger aller Zeiten. Und Vin war resistent zu einem Grand Tour. Er war 86 Jahre alt, glaube ich, in 2016.

Und dann haben sie ihn wirklich überzeugt. Aber es war ein anderes Tier, weil Vinny... Er war die Stimme eines Teams. Er war Teil einer Familie, der Dodger-Familie. Eine riesige Familie durch die Jahre. Ich weiß, dass es diese Wettbewerbe gab über den größten Dodger aller Zeiten. War es Koufax? War es Duke Schneider? Nein, wer würde jedes Jahr gewinnen? Es war Vinnie. Er hat Generationen gedauert.

That's what the scrotum said and look what happened. But I think the thing that you've alluded to that does happen frequently that we all know is you start with the one thing and then you're like, ooh, you know what, I gotta... And then you fine-tune too much.

Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
So coming out of that trip to the caves and that kind of very embarrassing moment for everybody, instead of asking that question, how do we get dairy farmers to grow less cows and make less milk that gets turned into cheese? They asked the question, how do we get people to eat more cheese?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
And that's where they came up with the ingenious idea of creating a fund to pay for marketing schemes, which the U.S. government would then oversee and control. That was the birth of this entity called dairy management, whose mission it is to increase the consumption of cheese in every which way they can.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
Cheese was delivering to us not just the luscious sensation of mouthfeel, but also heart disease. And then to kind of realize that the federal government with U.S. taxpayer money supporting it is in fact guiding and overseeing this effort. to get us to eat more and more cheese.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
We went from 1970 until recently tripling our cheese consumption to 33 pounds a year, which is basically 60,000 calories just from cheese, which is arguably one of the biggest man-made health disasters of our time. obesity, overweight, type 2 diabetes related to overeating.

You know, it's an odd business, journalism, right? Where one moment I'm traipsing around the Middle East and then the next, you know, moment I'm poking into, you know, craft and how they get us to eat so much. It's, you gotta love it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
One of the big moments, I think, when it comes to sort of understanding how cheese got, you know, woven into our diet so heavily, actually goes back to 1981, when the new incoming Secretary of Agriculture got tipped to the most bizarre situation in the middle of the country. And he flew out there, perhaps thinking, this is like so unbelievable, I have to see this for myself.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
And, you know, landed and went to Missouri, where they have these natural underground caverns, which was really valuable, as it turns out, because there's sort of natural cooling in the caverns. And what he saw was just... Astounding and kind of mind-blowing to him. There were 1.9 billion pounds of processed cheese that was sitting in these caverns, unused, unwanted, certainly uneaten.

Yeah. Yeah, it's a million dollars. It actually doesn't get you that far. Yeah, I know. That's like two months water bill for you. Okay, so what's up, brother? Yeah. My question is, how can I help my wife through this next phase of our marriage? That's already a dicey question. Yeah. That phase being no more children in the house. Tell me about it. We have three under five.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
And after our first one, we had discussed the possibility of fostering, possibly adopting, and we took a lot of steps toward it. And then she got pregnant with our second one. So that kind of got put on the back burner. And then we discussed a little bit after our second one, but not as in-depth. And then she got pregnant with our third one.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
And now that we've had our third one for a year, it's gotten brought back up, the possibility of adopting or fostering. And in my mind, our house is full. We don't have room. I don't even know how that would be possible. How's that conversation gone when you say that? Um, it's gone. It's gone.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
What I think as well, but then it, uh, we usually come to an agreement and she, she says that she understands, she understands my point of view and that it does make sense what I'm saying. And then something happens, usually something regarding social media or she sees something on the news.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
And then next thing you know, I'm getting ads for local adoption agencies and children that are up for adoption. Or one of the issues is our house was small. I'll get ads for bigger houses. And it's just, I don't even know what to do. I don't even know how to respond to those. Yeah. What do you do for a living? I work in the power industry.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Pretty well financially, probably. One thing we've been doing, I've been trying to do, she'd stay at home, so it's just my income. How much do you make a year? Last year, I made $110,000.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
No. No. We got into the market pretty well, so luckily our mortgage is pretty low, but if we were to move, you're talking, it would double probably.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah, I would say that's accurate.

I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)

There you go. There you go. And, uh, I don't believe that that's necessarily it. I don't, I don't think that's.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah, I do agree with that. Part of it, I think with steps we've made recently as far as trying to pay down debt and things, I don't know if financially would it be a possibility. Possibly, but I don't want to lose income. I don't want to be suffering in other ways because I'm having to pay double the mortgage. That's it right there. That's it.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah. And with the ad she sends me, it's... Like the dad in me is like, yeah, take them off, put them all in the house. Of course it is. Of course.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah, I agree with that because she was adopted herself. There you go. Lead with that next time. Not in a conventional – Sure, sure. Not in a conventional – she was from a – She had no parents. It was her stepdad adopted her.

Yeah. And that's actually come up too. It's, it seems, uh, It seems it just transfers over to something else. Our last conversation was you wanted to get another dog. We have one. We're talking a $5,000 dog.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah. Yeah, I understand. It just seems like... it just keeps coming back. It's just a, it's weird.
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Yeah, I can... I can definitely do that if it does come up as far as for the, like the transference of it, you know, same thing, just be more. What do you mean?
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
As far, as far as it started with the adoption and then because we talked that and talk about that and we kind of, Um, well, I did at least, uh, agree that that wasn't what we were going to do. And then it, it transferred to, well, since, and she has said at one time that it upset me, but well, since we're not going to have a fourth child, can we get a different house?
The Dr. John Delony Show
I Don’t Enjoy Sex With My Husband (We Have Issues)
Or since we're not going to have a fourth child, can we get another dog?
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
So, you know, As we approached leading up to it, something seemed off. Lo and behold, by doing some of my own research and finding out, it looks like she dropped the program about this time last year, and she has not gone back since.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
you know, to complete the degree, but she has continued to tell everybody that she's done with school and, you know, going as far as ordering a fake diploma, like ordering a cap and gown. She happened to get sick the morning of the graduation ceremony, you know, became very ill. So that's how we arrived at where we're at now.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Oh, I mean, I'd come up and ask her like, hey, like, you know, I know you're not done with school, you know, and then she tells me I am done with school. You know, I don't support her. I don't believe her. And, you know, stuff like that is kind of how it always goes.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
And it's just becoming mentally draining because, you know, it's just I know the truth, but she will not admit what's going on first to be able to move forward. And I just don't know what else I can do. What else does she lie to you about? Nothing really. It's just the school stuff. We've been together since we were 17 to like 12 years. I mean, I don't really lie about anything else.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
It's just, this seems to really be an anchor weighing her down as when you get this stuff. I don't know if it's, you know, low self-esteem because, you know.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Go ahead. I bring that up to her. I tell her, like, you know, hey, you know, she, you know, there's, you know, a video online of the commencement. You know, she tells me that's not, you know, that's not her school and, you know, stuff like that. And I say, hey, show me a transcript, you know, a degree audit, you know, from that. And she said, I shouldn't have to do that.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
And that's just kind of how, you know, to me, if you have nothing to hide, you know, you shouldn't be unwilling to do that simple thing to alleviate all this burden off of everybody, in my opinion. Maybe I'm wrong.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Yeah. I mean, so I, I mean, I, I work, I work in like mortgage sales. So I go to an office three days a week and like, I'm at home to two others, um, here. So like I go to her office.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
So like she, um, you know, would say that on Tuesdays, you know, cause he did have a schedule where like, it was one of those things where, you know, you take two classes and you go every, you go pretty much all year round. You take two classes every eight weeks and so on from there. Um, on Tuesdays, he's, That was like the remote class day.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
And, of course, I'm in the office, and so I didn't know if she was doing homework or not. Where was she going when you were at home? On Thursday, she would leave and go somewhere. And now, lo and behold, she would just be around the school area and maybe sit in a parking garage for two hours. I mean, that's what I think happened.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
I agree. That's why I'm talking to you.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
I was busy working and stuff like that.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Yes, because... There's another wrinkle. You can dissect this as you wish. She works part-time. She did go to school part-time, so she works for nights. At one time, her laptop was left open, and I went into her school email, and she hasn't sent a school email in almost a year. So, and then, you know, when I ask her, Hey, you know, why have you said, why is there no school email there?
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
She says, I don't use my school and I use my personal. And like, I work for a big corporation. If I send stuff, my regular email, I'll get fired. But that was the first thing. And then, you know, her, like her, you know, coursework log, there wasn't any courses taken in this year of 2024. That's why I'll piece it together. But the blackboard they use had no courses taken this year.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
That's how I put this all together. Yeah.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
It looks like she dropped the program about this time last year, and she has not gone back since to complete the degree, but she has continued to tell everybody that she's done with school and, you know, going as far as ordering a fake diploma, ordering a cap and gown.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
I don't know what her end game is.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Well, that's, that's the thing. Like when that's, that's what it like, you know, recently, you know, they correct. I mean, she, you know, tells me on, You know, that the Wednesday when they had a clinical, like, you know, that's the day they have clinical and she sells me. She went to clinical. Like I said, I'm not I'm not at I'm at work. So I don't I don't know where she goes.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
I know it sounds like naive and stuff, but I mean, and who am I not to believe her? And now now I look like a fool.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
If she's enrolled there at the time, is that correct?
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Well, the thing is, too, also, like, the other thing is, you know, you can't find her name in the state registry either, and she just tells us, you know, that there's a glitch in the system and, you know, so on like that.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie

The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
A question or more of an issue with how do I approach my wife who has been lying to me about attending nursing school and also graduated nursing school as well. Um, I don't know if you want me to give you some backstories.
The Dr. John Delony Show
Struggling to Trust My Wife After Catching Her in a Huge Lie
Yeah. Okay. So my, uh, uh, Mary, my wife, about a year, uh, we just, uh, August year, last year, or still married. Excuse me. I said, not, not, not, we're still married. Excuse me.

The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
Um, mental health issues. I had to have medication changes and they took me out of work for it. And it's been a month and a half. Uh, I had a thousand dollars saved up for it and I floated all my bills for that month. And, uh, I'm out of funds and I'm at the point to where everything's about to run behind.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life

The Ramsey Show

I'm getting $300 a week and my wife does work, but she's only bringing in $1,000 every two weeks. What does she do? She works in a factory.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
No, that's full-time. Prior to me going on short-term, we were bringing in roughly $5,000 a month, but me being on short-term has cut my funds by about $2,000.

The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
See, I did that with one credit card, and they cut my bill in half. But they canceled the card and put me on a 60-month plan. And by doing that, dropped my FICO score by about 70 points.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
Could care less. Okay, so here's my next question. One of my ways of thinking was I don't care about my credit cards. My house payment's only $300 plus land taxes plus insurance.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
uh that's i not counting my debt for credit cards um my the bills to run the house is about two grand okay now um i don't care about my credit cards i don't care about my debt my house is five years out from being paid off great my car is 10 months out from being paid off okay I want to keep my house paid. I want to keep my cars paid.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
I was willing to let my credit cards get behind and then call them and see if I can get the same deal off them once I get back.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
It's more like $2,300. That leaves us about $700 for food.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life

The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
Hey, I was just wondering if I could give you some of my financial life insight and help me figure out the two-part question. You got it. The first question being, how can I budget mine and my wife's irregular income? And the second question being, where should I go next? So my wife and I's income, I make about $80,000 a year.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
And she is a stay at home mom, but she has a side hustle where she's watching children. She makes anywhere between a hundred to $400 a week.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
Um, and that's, uh, I'm currently working on making more money within the next month. I'll probably be making, um, working on making a hundred thousand dollars a year.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
And, I'm saving for retirement at the moment. Um, 6% matches company I'm with now is doing. Okay. And, um, Yeah, that's where I'm at. I've got a one-year-old and I've got a $1,700 mortgage.

Oh, yeah. It's just about work, Dave. I mean, it's hard work. It's putting money away. It's not, you know, my wife and I talked about this a couple years ago. You know, we watched our friends in our early 20s, you know, go into debt, going on vacation and buying cars, and we didn't do that, right? We stayed at home.
The Ramsey Show
Small Changes Now Mean Big Wins Later
We didn't have our first vacation until we were married for four years, and it was a road trip to Colorado. So... you know, we were, our dates were picnics in a, in a local park that had a concert during the summer on the weekends. So we can go out to dinner. We didn't do that stuff. We, we socked our money away.
The Ramsey Show
Small Changes Now Mean Big Wins Later
And, and the other thing I will tell you is we also didn't, we also have conversations about everything, right? Like she knows our investments. I'm not hiding anything from her. We don't make any big decisions without talking. Even when I want to change jobs or move on, I don't do it unless I have her blessing.
The Ramsey Show
Small Changes Now Mean Big Wins Later
Oh yeah. I, I, you never, I think at that point you're, you're going to lose your million pretty quick. Um, so I mean, my opinion, I mean, I, I agonized about this car for four months before I bought it. I've never, I've never bought a new car. I take that back. I bought one new car early on and my father let me have it.
The Ramsey Show
Small Changes Now Mean Big Wins Later
Um, he was in the car business and made it very clear that buying a new car was not smart. So this was kind of a little thing for me. And, and, um, You know, even then, if he was still alive, I'm sure I'd be getting a what for for buying a new car.

You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
Um, and the only reason it has been lately is because it was not maintained well. So it's been a point of contention because, um, it makes sense to sell it and get her something else that's more income producing for her, but she doesn't understand all of that. And she's very scared right now. And my husband just wants to leave everything as is. Um,
The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
And she thinks that we're kind of stealing her money right now, which is not the case. We're just trying to back pay ourselves from all the expense we had to put into the rental property. So my question is, because the death is still so recent, do we just leave everything alone for right now?
The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
Or should we pursue selling it and buying something that would actually be income producing for her, for her to live off of? And if so, at what time does that make sense to do that?

The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
So we've put in about $3,400 for taxes. We've put in another almost $3,400 for an insurance policy. We spent $800 on a home warranty. The HOA has been about $450 a month. There was some extra HOA that we had to pay on that that was unpaid. We've had to fix two broken windows, change out the washing machine, and the HVAC unit needed some work as well, which amounted to about $1,500.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
So I got you guys approaching what? $10,000 or $15,000.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
well, we're okay. That's, but that was my question is like, my husband wants everything to be run by books. So like pull the money from the rental income, but then nothing's going to my mother-in-law and she doesn't understand all the expenses associated with it. So that's where we're having a point of contention is like, how do we move forward with this on the money aspect of things?

Good afternoon. Thank you so much for allowing me to receive your wisdom today.

You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
We do. We've had a lot of difficulties working with the HOA company, and that's never going to go away. So I think if we could get a different property that's going to produce more income for her long term. No, no, we get that.

You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
So I have both a money and a relationship question all in one. In January, my father-in-law sadly passed away and left behind my mother-in-law. They were married 52 years, and he handled all of the finances. So on his deathbed, my father-in-law asked my husband to take care of his mom and take care of the rental property, which is going to be basically her income going forward. All great.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Still Escape the Debt Spiral Before It’s Too Late
We didn't realize until a couple months in that the property was left very poorly maintained. There were some back taxes on it. There's been no insurance on the property. HOA is very high. So after we looked at all the numbers, we realized this is never going to be a truly income producing property where she can actually receive income from it.

All right. It seems kind of silly, and I'll try to keep this short, but I'm a pretty long-winded talker. I know that. I am too. My ex and I, I'm 28. We got married when I was 24. We did all the right things. We got married. We bought a house. We got the toys to go along with it. We had a daughter. And He's really struggled with alcoholism. And because of her safety, I ultimately decided to leave.

He does not pay child support in our divorce. I said, you know, 200 bucks a month. I'll take care of it. At that point, I had been doing it by myself for so long that I was like, it really doesn't matter. My main thought at that time was I tried to give him, I think, more grace than he probably should. I wanted him to be able to get back on his feet.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
He was living with his mom, and the truck that we had bought was $30,000. We got a loan, put five down. He owed $25,000, or we owed $25,000. And I just got a statement from them, and this has been a couple years now, that there is still $25,000 left. And so what happens is he doesn't make any payments. They threaten to take it. He makes a big payment, you know, to give him off his back.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
And I've talked to the lender and said, you know, what can I do? And they're basically saying nothing unless he refinances, which he has no interest in doing. So between the truck getting behind and then, like, he doesn't, pay child support. I think he's paid it once. Last December, he paid me the $200. Who told him it was optional? Well, so we don't have it enforced.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
I haven't gone through the child support division. We just put it on paper in our divorce, but I can make the call the day to do it. The courts actually said his child support would be about $800, but again... Yeah, I was going to say it sounds low. Keep the truck payment current, and we'll kind of go from there.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
Yeah. And so I'm just kind of wondering if there's anything I can do to kind of get off that, and if I should...
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
call and get the child support just taking out my fear is whenever i've got this up to him he kind of withdraws and stops taking our daughter and i just i know it's not my responsibility to keep their relationship good um but i do feel you know an obligation because she's so young to at least buy some time for her to make the choice on how their relationship progresses she's two yeah um
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
No, he's still with mom, and he's actually never taken me off of the joint account we had. So I don't use it, but I can see it. I imagine there's some cash coming through that I don't see because I've never seen a payment to his mom. I've never seen any sort of. large withdrawal from the account. I mean, it's literally all, I'm sorry, it's alcohol.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
It's $30 at gas stations here and there, the occasional gas stop.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
$100 at Walmart. Yeah, yeah, he has a job. And from what I can see, he gets about $800 a week through that job.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
He doesn't help. I think he's working construction now, doing concrete. And he just, I mean, he doesn't, He doesn't do daycare. He sees her on Monday and Wednesdays for a couple hours, and then he gets her for an overnight on Friday.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
Well, that's why I'm kind of like torn because I'm working through the baby steps on my own to just try to get ahead. I've got two credit cards that, I mean, my debt's less than $5,000. My car I paid off when we sold our house. Like, I'm doing okay unless I'm kind of like, is it even worth ruffling the feathers? But at the same time, I'm like, it's been, you know, a year and a half and you haven't
The Ramsey Show

done anything and you're flaking on taking her all the time. So if you're not going to at least see her... Mikayla, you're the sweetest person I've ever talked to.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
Say that part again. He's a good friend to his friends. He's a good, you know, but he's just not a good partner, and he's not been a great dad up until... You can be a great drinking buddy and be a terrible husband. Yes.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
Hey, listen. Oh, yeah, I'm very transparent with him. I sent him a long message last week. I said, here's kind of where I'm at. Like, I need you to think about this because we can't continue what we're doing.
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
I do have solace. Yeah, he just kind of says, okay, you know, I'll see what I can do, but I know nothing will come. I have comfort because he's living with his mom, and I know her mom, and we have an okay relationship. So my daughter's at least safe while she's there because...
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
they're there you know so i'm like i have part of me is like don't move out of your house well then i would mess around i mean george what do you think i i just feel like you did you go through the courts for this was there a decree yes so everything is actually finalized this month on the 18th so why did the judge not finalize and say hey he's got to refinance sell or pay this car off and force it that's part of the deal um so they did so on paper it does say that he's responsible for that um
The Ramsey Show
Getting Your House In Order Is The First Step To Financial Success
Because, I mean, I gave him everything else. He's responsible for what? For the truck loan, but the lender is saying, well, you signed the loan, so you're not off the hook.

So I'm currently 18, and by the time I graduate, I'm probably looking at a $100,000 to $120,000 loan that I'm sitting at. And my current car is under my mom's name with her interest rates on it. and her credit got ruined by my dad leaving. And I'm looking to switch the car with way less percentage of interest, but I have to max out my credit cards for the down payment to put on it.
The Ramsey Show
Quit Letting Broke People Give You Financial Advice!
And I don't know what to do, if it's even worth it or not.
The Ramsey Show
Quit Letting Broke People Give You Financial Advice!
I'm sitting, so I bought the car at $30,000. I'm looking at $41,000 right now.
The Ramsey Show
Quit Letting Broke People Give You Financial Advice!
I had a $70,000 car and another $60,000. I sold it. I made profit, but my mom's credit card ruined, and they gave me a 12% interest on it, and I didn't realize until yesterday when I checked, and I only had it for five months.
The Ramsey Show
Quit Letting Broke People Give You Financial Advice!
So I'm sitting at $1,000 to $1,500 from my work at retail. And I had side businesses before, and I had like about $70,000. I blew it all. And now I make maybe $500 to $1,000 from my side businesses. A month.
The Ramsey Show

Nothing. I'm in debt to my credit cards.
The Ramsey Show

Do that, right? And then what about on the new car? So that's the thing that doesn't make sense to me on the new car that I looked at that I'm going to get. I'm seeing monthly payments instead of 96-month loan. I didn't say anything about monthly payments.

Because we tried when we went to the bank. I didn't want you to go to the bank.

The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Hi, guys. Thank you for having me and thank you for taking my question. You got it.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
So my parents asked me for $40,000 to $50,000 for a down payment for a second home.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Sorry. Okay, go ahead. So they currently live about 10 hours away from the rest of us siblings, and they don't have the down payment for that home. The reason for them not being able to move and be closer to us is my father is waiting to finish five more years at his job to collect a pension, and they're wanting to have the flexibility to be closer but to have their own place.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
I'm 25 years old, just got out of my own debt, and I'm really unsure what to do. Yeah, I would say no.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
I'm the most financially secure right now. My other three siblings live in paycheck or just getting out of their own student loans.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Yeah. Um, I, uh, I'm debt free now, uh, quite a bit, uh, in a savings account right now, um, that he's aware of. Obviously he helps me.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
So it's obviously a complex situation. All of us kids were all over the country when they decided to move down south away from us. And now two of my siblings are getting married in the next few months and, you know, wanting to have children, obviously, pretty quickly.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
So I think a lot of it has to do with them wanting to be closer to us during those times, obviously being stuck at that place that they're at right now due to their current position.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Yeah, that's a good question, too. And I don't I don't know.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Yeah. I'm, I'm planning to talk with them in a few months about it to the both of them and just let them know. But obviously, you know, wanted some advice.
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
Right. I think, I think the biggest thing for me is my parents have allowed me to be as, you know, in this position. And, and obviously I feel guilty about it. What does that mean? They really pushed and, you know, so how I got successful is just, I got lucky doing what I do for, for a job and lean on my parents a lot. And they had to take out some loans to get me,
The Ramsey Show
The Road to Financial Freedom Begins With Hard Choices
You know, to the point where I'm at now, more specifically, it has to do with, obviously, just the job that I have now. And, you know, I thought about changing my careers at one point, and I'm glad I stayed with it because it's been very, very successful.

Absolutely. How can Ken and I help? Sure. So it's really just general investment advice and guidance. I got married a few months ago. Congrats. And thank God we got, thank you. We got a lot of money in wedding gifts. You know, we currently don't have any debt, but we have like $45,000 sitting in our checking account, which is obviously ridiculous. That's amazing. Yeah, thank you.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
I just wanted advice on, you know, where you would put it and also just some, you know, passive investing with my income.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Not so much. Our rent is about $2,400. Utilities and other... 300. I own my car. It's probably around 3,500 altogether a month.

I'm having a little issue. I lost my husband in 2008 and got a settlement because he died in a work accident and had a family friend who was a trust officer at a regional bank and offered to help me walk through the whole process and drew up some trust for me and my kids. And, uh, two years ago I found out that he stole all the money.
The Ramsey Show

Do you have any debt right now? I moved into a camper when I found out the money was gone because I panicked and didn't want to be spending any more money. So I owe about $12 on the camper, and I have a little bit on a credit card because that had kind of been my backup while I was figuring things out.

Well, I just recently, the guy who took the money was giving me a paycheck, so I had Obamacare. And when he took the paycheck, now I'm on Medicaid. Okay. And then I just found out that because of this settlement, I'll probably lose Medicaid. So just little things that are up in the air that I'm not sure what to do, but I don't have a lot of expenses.
The Ramsey Show

I get about $27.83 a month from workers' comp, and I have about $1,500, give or take. I pay extra on the camper and medical bills and things like that.

Hello? This is Karen. Who's this? Hi, Annie. This is Cassandra Bowman. We have a few animals that are en route to your house right now, but we needed vocal confirmation because... What? Wait, RJ, two animals coming here?
Will & Rusty's Playdate
eilise patton teaches us how to honey launder
Listen to this. We have three pigs and two llamas. Also, throwing in a free bonus animal, which would be an ox. What the fuck are you doing?

eilise patton teaches us how to honey launder
Okay, well, this could be a bad time to throw this in as well, because we also have nine more ducks on the way, and then we also have a brown and a white and black cow. Okay, Cassandra. Okay, Cassandra. I know RJ had also ordered two horses, but those are being delayed right now. Delayed. 96. Every single one of them is going to need a rabies vaccination.

eilise patton teaches us how to honey launder
Yeah. So I guess we call animal control to have them... That's an option. Because the pigs have AIDS, you just want to make sure that doesn't spread to the other animals. They have what? AIDS. AIDS. AIDS. AIDS. He got them for half off. AIDS. A-I-D-S. Like the disease?
