Chapter 1: What insights did Bo Loudon share about the AmFest event?
Yeah. All right, guys. Bo is back. We're at AmFest. Great event so far, right? Phenomenal.
Turning Point definitely does it right. With their events every year, it's a pleasure to attend, and I'm glad they have me out to all of them because it's a great time. It's my first Turning Point event, first AmFest, and I am very impressed. Yeah, 100%. They don't mess around with their stuff.
They take their budget, and they put it where it matters, and they get some of the greatest speakers, the greatest shows all in one place, and they make it really fun.
Yeah. How long have you been involved with Turning Point?
I can't say exactly. I think it's been about like three, three or four years. Nice. I've been coming to their events, you know, as long as I can remember. My mom was one of the first speakers at all the original Turning Point events when they only had like, you know, 200 attendees and things like that. And so, yeah, it's been great.

Chapter 2: What happened during the debate with David Pakman?
But we're, my family are lifelong, you know, friends of Charlie Kirk and partners of Turning Point.
Yeah, the growth has been insane, dude. I think they played a massive role in this election as well. You saw him go to so many campuses. Did you ever go to campus with him?
I would love to. I think I had an invite on the one when they did it with Bryce Hall. Okay, Arizona. But yeah, I couldn't make it. I was doing something else. Yeah, I would love to sometime. Also, I'd love to go to campus with Cliff Connectly. That'd be a good one too. Another buddy of mine.
Yeah, I saw. Did Charlie go to NYU? I don't know if he did. I'm not sure if he did yet.
That'd be interesting.
He should head there and debate Harry Sisson over there.
That'd be fun to see for sure.
Yeah. I saw you on, I think, Pierce Morgan, right? You were debating some people.
Yeah, so there was that David Pakman guy. Right. He was on there. He had just been slandering me all over YouTube for like months. I haven't even heard of this guy. And he was like, oh, this guy does not deserve to have a platform on Fox News and stuff like that. I think he was getting a little jealous or something. It was quite funny.

Chapter 3: How did Bo Loudon meet Trump and what did they discuss?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, these chat GB2 users who think that they're good debaters. Have you had one of those guys on?
I've had Perry on. I would have Dean on, but it's hard to say if they're like paid off in some way. So I want authentic opinions.
Well, they definitely are because, you know, we had the whole beef with them and Bryce Hall. And then Bryce was like, are they really paid? He was asking me. I'm like, yeah, here. I gave him the transcripts and posted it out to Twitter. And that went pretty viral.
So they were getting paid through a company, right? That's how they get around it.
Yeah, through a pallet media. I mean, you know, we're in the social media game. Everyone's managed by a company or has some company they work with. I'm transparent about it. If you ask me, I'll tell you. But for them, they completely lie and try to cover. But they both have pallet media emails and it's all on the FCC and everything's reported. Crazy. You can't lie about that.
You can't lie about it. You've had a busy week, man. What you been up to? I've been moving around a lot. This week has been one of the craziest weeks of my life. I was at Mar-a-Lago for my buddy's event, and he's a big-time hedge fund manager, Michael Lehman. I'll give him a little shout-out. But it was a great event, and it went super well.
And then after, we went upstairs, and we talked to President Trump for a good while while he was at dinner with Elon and Tim Cook and some other people. That was really cool. And he introduced me to Tim Cook and stuff like that. He was surprisingly nice. He was a nice guy. He was cool. We were talking about the iPhones and he was trying to tell Lee Greenwood why he should upgrade his iPhone.
So, yeah. Was Bezos there? Because I heard there was plans on Bezos and Trump. Not when I was there. A few of my buddies saw him, though. He was there, yeah.
That's cool that he's not even present yet, but he's already taking these important meetings.

Chapter 4: What are Bo's thoughts on the Department of Education?
Everybody was everywhere.
As someone who's still... You're 18, right? Yes, sir. So you're thinking about going to college. How do you feel about the Department of Education potentially being removed?
I mean, I think... I think it could definitely have a lot of positives because there's so much... There's so much propaganda being put in our schools nowadays and things like that. I'm going to go to college for sure, I think. Maybe like Liberty University in Virginia. I like their school a lot. I'm doing their online program right now, things like that. So...
Um, but, uh, I'm gonna go to law school there as well.
And I think, you know, I'd like to just, I mean, there, I'm not as worried about it cause they're a pretty good Christian conservative college, but you know, it's sad seeing all these kids, you know, starting in the school age, they don't get enough attention from their parents and then get brainwashed by their schools and then more brainwashed in college.
And then they come out as some tool over society, you know?

Chapter 5: Why does Bo Loudon believe some college degrees are useless?
So. Well, a lot of these degrees, let's be honest, are pretty useless. You're going for law school. That makes sense.
I'm going to for a reason. I wouldn't just go to college to go to college. That's the problem. And that's why Charlie Kirk is a great example. This is a guy who didn't need to go to college. If he was going to, maybe for business or something. But obviously, he did fine without it. And he has one of the biggest companies, one of the biggest political companies in the entire world. And...
100%.
Chapter 6: What does Charlie Kirk's success without college represent?
He got started young. He started in his garage. He talked to an amazing man. Rest in peace, Frost or Freeze. And got some investors like that guy to help... boost his company and it did phenomenally. And I couldn't be more proud of him and everyone else that understands they don't need to go to college for certain things. If you have your idea and you're ready for it, start it now.
Don't waste time in college. Absolutely. His video crying on election night was, it made me tear up, dude. Yeah, that was that was that was heartfelt because, you know, that's that's again, he's a man who's worked really hard for this. And like so many of us, like my mom, my mom is one of the original founders of the Tea Party. And someone like her, like, I feel so blessed.
I'm even in a position to fight with for this because I know how hard she worked just to put me where I am. Yeah. I mean, from starting on a radio show to doing several of her own shows across networks and Fox News. And she was defending President Trump on TV since the very beginning. One of the first people early, like 2015, 2016, defending him on TV. And she didn't even know that he noticed.
But then she met him in 2019. He's like, you're my hero. You defend me on TV and I've seen it. And you're one of the only people who's stuck by me. It doesn't...
I love that, dude. That loyalty is hard to find. Especially for Trump in 16 around that time. Like, not many.
And he doesn't forget. He doesn't forget. When he knows you're loyal to him and he knows you're a friend and an ally, he remembers you and he picks you out in the crowd and he always comes up. So he always asks how your family's doing, how I bless you. I love that. He's a really, really extraordinary man. That's super cool.
What type of lawyer do you want to be? Do you know yet?
Yeah, probably constitutional.
Nice. Yeah, I think it'd be good. What do you think the biggest changes we should look into for the constitution are right now?
