1 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,320 Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower, an 2 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,720 American patriot. Prepare to embrace the 3 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,200 uncomfortable truth because this program has no time for 4 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,640 comforting lies. Here is civil liberties 5 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:26,560 enthusiast. 2nd Amendment defender and recovering FBI 6 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:41,360 agent Kyle Seraphin. Well, hello my friends. 7 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:42,320 Welcome to the Kyle Serving Show. 8 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,040 Today is Wednesday. It is November the 26th. 9 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,560 It is the day before Thanksgiving. 10 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,800 So I wanted to do something a little different. 11 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,560 I think one day a year, at the very minimum, we should just not 12 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,720 do politics. It's always there. 13 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,480 It's always around us. I had a rule and it's something 14 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,800 I came up with when I was working for the Bureau. 15 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,560 I had a a small group that grew to over 300 members. 16 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,000 It was a signal group like you guys have heard about on some of 17 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,400 these scandal things that have been going on on DoD. 18 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,760 And we had 300 different FBI employees. 19 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,720 We had agents and we had professional staff. 20 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,720 We had analysts, we had some people who are managers. 21 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,000 Everybody kind of quietly, a lot of people understood a name 22 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,200 because you don't have to put your real name down. 23 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,720 And we gathered everybody together because we realized 24 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,760 there was a problem with COVID tyranny. 25 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:41,120 So everybody started sharing stories and we talked about what 26 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,720 was going wrong in each individual field office. 27 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:49,120 And this was a way that we could kind of circle the wagons and be 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,800 assured that nobody was going to be alone, nobody was going to go 29 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,640 through it by themselves. Everybody thought they were the 30 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,880 island of the only person that was refusing the COVID vaccine. 31 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,120 And they found out, no, they're more like me. 32 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,760 I'm not the only one. And so we shared memes and we 33 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,880 shared well wishes and policies and violations and emails that 34 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,360 were coming out that were coming after everybody. 35 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:23,240 And, and then Thanksgiving showed up and I sent out a group 36 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:30,440 wide request just one day put aside the COVID policy, put 37 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,920 aside the corruption of the government that we were dealing 38 00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:35,560 with, put aside the the struggle that everybody was involved in. 39 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:37,920 And let's just talk about the things that we're actually 40 00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:41,280 grateful for. No politics, just family, just 41 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,120 friends, just the things that we can identify were the reason 42 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,680 that any of this stuff mattered in the 1st place. 43 00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:52,240 And so we did. And it was, that was in 2021. 44 00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:57,520 And a lot of things happened since then from that time. 45 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:02,440 We have, some of us lost our jobs, some people quietly went 46 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,880 back into the into their shells and they've just hoped that they 47 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,240 can get to retirement. But on that day, on that one day 48 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:17,240 in November of 2021, we just shared pictures of family and 49 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,560 why people served what they were grateful for. 50 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,400 So sometimes we need that. I think it's a good reminder. 51 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,320 I brought a story and I'm going to have the line open up for the 52 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,160 call in. We're going to put the thing, if 53 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,960 you guys are in any of the live chats right now, you'll be able 54 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,760 to to see that. Let me go ahead and connect our 55 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,400 board. So we've got the phone number 56 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,120 available and here's what I would like from you as the the 57 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,880 audience. No politics today. 58 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,120 No, no grouchiness against any of the things. 59 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,800 We've got all kinds of things that we could be upset about, 60 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,680 but there's plenty of things for us to turn around and focus in 61 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,760 the other way. So what I would like to hear 62 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:59,520 from you all is outside of the the typical friends and family, 63 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:00,880 what is something that you're grateful for? 64 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,240 I'm going to tell you what I'm grateful for. 65 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:11,480 I am very grateful for Oakley Standard Issue sunglasses. 66 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,160 If you're in the military, if you have been in law 67 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,280 enforcement, you can have access to the special program where you 68 00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:27,200 can buy discounted Oakley Standard issue sunglasses. 69 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,920 And I did that in September of 2009. 70 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,840 I was new in the military and I was an enlisted guy and I bought 71 00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:42,400 a couple of pairs of sunglasses and I was psyched when they came 72 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,440 in. And on October 2nd of 2009, my 73 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,240 buddy from high school and another friend of ours from high 74 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:56,560 school invited me to come to Austin, TX and I drove out 75 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,880 there. I think I got a ride out there 76 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,520 actually to go hang out with my friends from my childhood. 77 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,640 And our goal was to hang out and have some good times and maybe 78 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,560 go to some bars out on the on 6th St. or 5th St. or whatever. 79 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,440 And the cover story was that we were helping this girl move into 80 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,400 her apartment who'd been a friend of some of my buddies for 81 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:23,120 a long time. And on October 2nd of 2009, I 82 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,000 was in the apartment of this gal. 83 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,080 And I'm standing at her kitchen and my buddy and I are, you 84 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,520 know, BS ING and I've got my Oakley standard issue 85 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,320 sunglasses. And I'm telling them how awesome 86 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,080 they are and what they can do. And I'm explaining the features 87 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,640 and the polarized lenses and the fact that they're, you know, 88 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,280 like they're, they're good for shooting. 89 00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:47,920 And there's Z87 rated and all the other kind of stuff. 90 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,840 And the girl who owned that apartment watched me explain the 91 00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:56,280 story of buying those sunglasses and my excitement for those 92 00:05:56,280 --> 00:06:05,560 sunglasses, as silly as that is. And that girl, that woman is my 93 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,680 wife. And when we look back, she 94 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:13,600 always tells people, tells me that the day that she met me, 95 00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:19,520 the thing that she recognized was my excitement about a stupid 96 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:25,880 pair of sunglasses and the enthusiasm that I had for this 97 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,360 little inanimate object that didn't really matter that much. 98 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:41,880 So I'm thankful for these Oakley sunglasses, which changed my 99 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:53,100 life, and I think we all have something like that in our life. 100 00:06:55,220 --> 00:07:03,260 Without those, I'm not married, I don't have the kids. 101 00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:10,400 This morning I got up at 10 minutes to 510 minutes to 6 and 102 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,120 I had my little 2 year old who was yelling at my wife. 103 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:22,560 Mom, I'm awake. And all of that came from one 104 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,200 little moment. Because I'd met my wife 105 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,520 previously, it wasn't the first time I'd ever met her, but it 106 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,440 was the first time that she ever saw me in the way that she did. 107 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,360 So we started dating in October and it's been an interesting Rd. 108 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,640 ever since. We got to go out on a date last 109 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:37,800 night for the first time in a while. 110 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,440 That was pretty cool.

Oh, hello my friend. 380 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:51,880 Mr. Chaos. Chaos out of Dallas, Fort Worth, 381 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:58,920 Romo's locals, YouTube and XI too am grateful for tech 382 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,000 penises. Snapping Turtle. 383 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:08,080 Yeah, that's fair. Brings brings many of us joy. 384 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,800 Yeah, indeed. Well, I am. 385 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:19,280 I have to be eternally grateful for the for two of the 386 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:28,680 circumstances in which I met my son's mother, I was a manager at 387 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,800 a cell phone store. I was going out and partying and 388 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,040 getting drunk. But I've created, I had created 389 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:47,000 this kind of group of like misfit and unguided youths and 390 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,720 opened up my home at the time to basically anybody and everybody. 391 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,640 I left my door unlocked. I had food in the house for, you 392 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:02,120 know, these college students who or away from home, they didn't 393 00:23:02,120 --> 00:23:03,920 have, you know, really a place to go. 394 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:08,160 And so it kind of turned into like this place where people 395 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,120 could come and hang out and just relax. 396 00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:13,720 And so I'd be working and, you know, I'd make sure that 397 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,160 everything was socked up. And she happened to be one of 398 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:25,160 the one of the people that found this, this, this ragtag group of 399 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,440 unguided souls. And I couldn't stand her. 400 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,880 I absolutely, to this day, I still mostly can't stand her. 401 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:42,200 Well, that. That that is how God works, 402 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,760 whether you like it or not. Yep, Yep. 403 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,520 Yeah. We knew each other for about a 404 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,520 year and throughout that year I'd lost my job and I lost my 405 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,800 place. And so I was couch surfing and 406 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:03,760 sleeping in the car and when and hanging out at her place when I 407 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,040 wasn't doing the rest. And one day she tells me that 408 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,680 she's pregnant and we're going to have a kid. 409 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:22,640 And so that day I quit drinking. I went and got a job and is 100% 410 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,560 Commission. I figured, you know, I'd be, I'd 411 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,600 be all right. Wasn't. 412 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,600 And then for six months that night, actually the the night 413 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,440 that I met with the owner of the company, I wound up getting 414 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,400 arrested for a warrant that I didn't know that I had. 415 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,680 Oh wow. Yeah. 416 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,680 And then the, the guy, the owner of the company towed my car out, 417 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:49,240 put me in his guest bedroom and said, you're going to stay here 418 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,200 and you're going to work. And then you're going to have 419 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,520 food and you're going to have $10 a day so you can buy 420 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,720 cigarettes. And you're just going to go out 421 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,440 and you're going to work until you pay this off and get good at 422 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,280 it, or you at least pay it off. And then you you can go on about 423 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,560 your business. And I've been doing this for 11 424 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,520 years. Just straighten you right out. 425 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,400 Yep. Isn't that incredible? 426 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,720 And and your son, how old? He's 11. 427 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,280 He's, no, he's 99. Yeah. 428 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,640 So this was, I guess, 10 years right around there. 429 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,120 That's awesome. Yeah. 430 00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:32,840 Isn't it interesting how men need a burden? 431 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,160 Without it, we just kind of like we don't have any direction and 432 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,640 you suddenly put something heavy enough on our shoulders and 433 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:43,000 suddenly, more often than not, I see men will rise to the 434 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,720 occasion. And we needed it. 435 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,440 Yeah. And I think that I think that's 436 00:25:48,480 --> 00:26:00,840 missing for a lot of young men. But it's yeah, we're we're a 437 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,720 Society of many unguided souls that think that they have the 438 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,760 right burdens. But then but then, you know, 439 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,120 they get more burdens put on them. 440 00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:11,080 And then they realize, oh, this is what it actually means. 441 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,960 And they're like, this is the toughest thing I'm ever going to 442 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,360 do. And then more stuff gets put on. 443 00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:18,920 And then you're like, oh, that wasn't even close. 444 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,080 Yep. It's hard to, it's hard to look 445 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,640 back when you've been living as a father and taking care of 446 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,880 somebody else and making somebody else's life more 447 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,280 important than yours, to remember what it was like to be 448 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,040 the goofball that you were previously. 449 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,440 I have that experience for sure. I don't. 450 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,960 I wouldn't recognize myself. I imagine you probably have the 451 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,760 same instinct. No, I I wouldn't even as a 452 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,640 matter of fact, one of the one of the people that was in that 453 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:48,120 original group actually drove up from Houston yesterday to visit 454 00:26:48,120 --> 00:26:49,680 it. Awesome. 455 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,360 What's the the whole thing That's that's fantastic. 456 00:26:54,360 --> 00:26:55,880 I appreciate you sharing the story. 457 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,240 I think a lot of us kind of have that. 458 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,160 For those who haven't had it, maybe that's a reminder to keep 459 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,920 your eye open for the unexpected and for those who can be 460 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,720 grateful for those weird moments that turned us. 461 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,840 I think I think a lot of us have had that too. 462 00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:10,640 So thanks. Don't try and guide life, let 463 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,680 let life guide you. That's right. 464 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,480 His, his will, not thy will, or thy will not thy will. 465 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,600 I think that's the right answer.

I think it was, but not that 505 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,080 many years. It was. 506 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:06,680 It's been, it's been many lifetimes since then. 507 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,800 Yes, and happy Thanksgiving to all the Sarah fans out there and 508 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,440 we will see you somewhere later on today. 509 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:15,560 Have a great one.

Lou has been one of the folks 512 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,600 that I've been interacting with on Twitter Spaces and in the 513 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,520 politics realm over on X for X and Twitter for literally years 514 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,200 now. And she's got a big heart. 515 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,760 And so it's nice to hear from the people that that get it. 516 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,960 Couple of you guys are still going to try to call in. 517 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,240 So I'm going to leave the phone open for just a second here. 518 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,840 Again, we'll just address. We had kind of a drop off where 519 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,040 it looks like the the feed kind of died. 520 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,160 And I don't think it's on my end, but I did see some 521 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,240 interruptions over the night. So I don't know what's going on 522 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,720 there. It's the nature of the beast. 523 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,360 That's just how it works. I think we're on to caller #7 524 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,600 right now. And tell me who are you? 525 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,800 Where are you? And share with us what you're 526 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,680 grateful for. Hey, Kyle, it's Jan from 527 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,040 Indiana. Hi, Jan. 528 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,440 Your favorite Catholic? How are you doing Hun? 529 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,200 I am doing OK. I I really appreciate you giving 530 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,360 us the opportunity to do this today. 531 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:20,720 I think we don't do it enough and I don't have a particular 532 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,480 story. There's a lot of little stories, 533 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:30,440 but it all culminates in this and I hope I can do this without 534 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,000 Dick crying too. Much. 535 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,400 I hear you. I was there earlier. 536 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,600 It's it's a time to be emotional. 537 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,640 I think that's OK. Well, idiot, that's what 538 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,240 gracefulness will lead to that.

But I wanted to call in. 593 00:34:15,639 --> 00:34:18,199 I just, I wanted to be grateful telling everybody, I'm grateful 594 00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:20,840 for you. I'm grateful for the wonderful 595 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,760 humans in your chat. I'd love that everyone has such 596 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,679 a great sense of humor that we all love Jesus. 597 00:34:27,679 --> 00:34:31,520 We are so blessed to all be here another day that he has a 598 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,520 purpose for us. And I just, you know, I'm so 599 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,520 thankful for everyone who, like you, have served our country, 600 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,800 have have gone through trials and tribulations and are just 601 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:46,159 solid, solid humans and just keep going day by day. 602 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,280 And just wanted to let you guys know that I'm grateful for 603 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,480 everyone in the chat, everyone on the show, all the work 604 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,000 everyone puts in, and just everyone's sense of humor for 605 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,520 Tax Turtles. I mean, I tell you what, you 606 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,880 guys are amazing. We got a, we got a real quirky 607 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,280 group, kind of a special group of people. 608 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,160 And I don't know that this happens on other programs the 609 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,440 way that ours has, but maybe the the purpose that started the 610 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,640 show was bigger than my own. I think that's been pretty 611 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,760 clear. We've had people show up across 612 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,440 country to help each other move. We've had people show up and 613 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,160 help each other across medical emergencies, across family 614 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,760 disasters. It's really something it's not, 615 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,040 it doesn't have anything to do with me other than I'm just 616 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,400 physically the person there in the mornings. 617 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,440 There's just such a neat, there's a neat ethos that has 618 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,400 kind of developed out of these. And I don't think it's like 619 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,280 other chat programs that I've seen people kind of be part of. 620 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,320 It's not yeah, anyone that's that's a part of it, including 621 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,760 me. So it's a great how God uses his 622 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,240 humans. So yeah, no, love everyone. 623 00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:50,160 So just grateful for us all to be here together. 624 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,280 Well, appreciate you. I appreciate you calling in. 625 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,200 Thanks for sharing that. I think you echoed some 626 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,240 sentiments a lot of folks have been sharing with me over the 627 00:35:56,240 --> 00:35:59,480 last couple years and it's, it seems universal. 628 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,520 So happy Thanksgiving to you and absolutely, absolutely to. 629 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,200 You and your family as well. Take care, everyone. 630 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:06,800 All right, Keep it down over there in Clarksville. 631 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,240 Will do. Take care, God bless. 632 00:36:11,240 --> 00:36:14,040 All right, there is something kind of interesting about this 633 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,120 program. Folks, if you don't know, if 634 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,400 you're new to the program, the folks we have, they've gone 635 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,840 through a bunch of wild stories. All of your stories are equally 636 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,120 difficult. I think maybe that's what we all 637 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:30,400 kind of share in common and it's, it's united in the in the 638 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:31,680 understanding that they're suffering. 639 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,280 But there's probably a reason I am seeing that that we're losing 640 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,600 some access for some reason. The the program feed is jumping 641 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:38,920 in and jumping out. We're just going to move 642 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,080 through. If you guys want to catch it 643 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,680 afterwards on Spotify, I will boast the entire thing and I and 644 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,480 I recorded it locally so you'll be able to listen to this, 645 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,040 including any calls that you're missing. 646 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,040 All right, caller #9 welcome to the program. 647 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,080 Who are you?

Where'd you grow up? 761 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,680 No, I grew up. In Manhattan, NY City. 762 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:39,360 You know what my first clue was? I I. 763 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:40,680 Let me guess. Go ahead. 764 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,000 What was it you got that same kind of? 765 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,360 Sound that my father-in-law, who was born in Manhattan, says it's 766 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,200 just a real particular Manhattan low E shy. 767 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,200 Yes, that's great. Low E Shy to Manhattan, Little 768 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,000 Italy, Chinatown. I love it. 769 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,440 How long have you been living? In Florida America. 770 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,840 About 20 years now. All right. 771 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,440 So you're basically native at this point. 772 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,760 Yeah, I went from. New York to Colorado to Florida. 773 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,320 Outstanding. Outstanding. 774 00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:12,920 Well, I always got to give New Yorkers. 775 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,560 New Yorkers have a special place in my heart. 776 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,280 You may know this, but I married a girl who was born in Manhattan 777 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:21,240 and grew up in Brooklyn. And so I I bought in Manhattan. 778 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,280 I don't know where she was born. She was in one of. 779 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,880 The hospitals there, but they moved immediately into a place 780 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,360 down in Park Slope or near Park Slope, Borum Heights and in OK, 781 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,200 OK, OK. She'll shake me for that, maybe. 782 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,280 Back when nobody wanted. To go to Brooklyn. 783 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,120 Yes, yes, yes. I want to thank Rudy Giuliani 784 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,280 for destroying it, though. Yeah. 785 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,600 Is that what it did you? Know he changed. 786 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,960 He changed. The flavor of all of Brooklyn, 787 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,760 you know? Yeah, it's he took away. 788 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,240 The best homeland? Security Brooklyn that I've 789 00:43:56,240 --> 00:44:01,320 never had. I mean, if we if we drive, if we 790 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:05,720 drive through Brooklyn and Manhattan now you can see the 791 00:44:05,720 --> 00:44:09,320 difference. It says no more family oriented 792 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,440 Italian neighborhoods when you had cafes and social clubs and 793 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,880 people out there 24 hours a day watching the neighborhood. 794 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:18,960 That's right. You know, making sure your 795 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:23,440 mother can walk to the grocery store at 10:00 at night, you 796 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,720 know, that's all gone. It's gone the entire night. 797 00:44:27,720 --> 00:44:30,840 Claves are gone. Yeah, the I think that's a. 798 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,560 Lot of America has that problem right now. 799 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,120 We've lost the my wife and I drove through around even in 800 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,400 Texas and we just went, it's not culture. 801 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,840 It's just big box retail. It's it's exported, whatever it 802 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:43,080 is. It's it's exported 803 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,400 commercialism, you know, right. It's convenient commercials. 804 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,320 That's what it is, Kyle. Yeah, that's. 805 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:51,320 What it is, it's like the flavor even in and you go drive through 806 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,240 the small town, you break your heart when you see all the 807 00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:56,120 stores closed. It really does. 808 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,120 Where, where, where whole. Sessions. 809 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,520 Are closed yeah well I'm I'm grateful that when. 810 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,520 You drive through.

I'm grateful that I grew up. 813 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:08,960 Early enough that I could actually see some of those 814 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:10,640 things that they existed even if they're not there, because I 815 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:13,640 know what it could look like and I imagine that's right. 816 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:15,640 That's right, there's. Kids that don't even know that 817 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,520 are grown up, sorry. For our children and our. 818 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,960 Grandchildren that aren't seeing that, that don't get the 819 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,720 experience, all that, that's exactly right. 820 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,880 Yeah, well, maybe something good will come out of that too, 821 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,080 because nobody knows.

I'm a little bit partial to to 833 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,960 some people out of New York, especially the ones that move to 834 00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,800 America. All right, we're on to caller 835 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,680 #11 I believe. Who are you? 836 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,560 Where are you, and what are you grateful for? 837 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,920 You'd like to share? All right, this is Hassan. 838 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:13,480 AG Cowboys from Cincinnati, Oh yes Sir. 1st. 839 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,760 Of all, I guess I talk to the group here, we're all thankful 840 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:22,280 for the for the suspendables, for roles for every single one 841 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:30,440 of you. Second all, of course I'm happy 842 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:35,520 to be or thankful to be living in the USA, still in Ohio where 843 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,880 it's not California and New York. 844 00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:44,160 But most importantly, I'm happy for and thankful for God's 845 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,720 challenges where at the time I might not have seen what it was 846 00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:56,280 for, but it has brought me to faith, family, and a totally 847 00:46:56,280 --> 00:47:00,200 changing my views from being a liberal straight out of college 848 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,040 to being a conservative Christian that has brought up my 849 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:13,080 family in church. So yeah, just an example of that 850 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:18,760 2017 travel ban affected being in a way where I had to change a 851 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:24,480 job from here where I was making like around 100K, go back to 852 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:29,120 Iran, live with my wife for 1/10 of the salary there. 853 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:34,160 And at the time, I didn't see what the what it was for. 854 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,800 I'm like, why? Why would the I have to go 855 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:43,360 through this hardship? But all through that, it made me 856 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:48,920 realize how full crap the MSM was, and it changed my ways of 857 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,360 looking at the world so progressively. 858 00:47:54,240 --> 00:47:55,880 You know, I had one of the people from Catholic. 859 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,960 Vote. Tell me real early on when 860 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,480 there's a lot of difficulty in your life, you start making the 861 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,400 question or your, your brain constantly is trying to make 862 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,240 sense of it. And one of the, the women who 863 00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:09,480 worked there said God draws straight with crooked lines as 864 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,200 only God can do. And none of us can see it until 865 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,920 we're far, far away. Then you can look back and you 866 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:18,400 can reflect and go, got it. This is where I was wrong. 867 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,400 This is why this stuff happened to me. 868 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,520 I think, you know, we're still just estimating and guessing, 869 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,720 but it's such a universal human experience to be able to look 870 00:48:26,720 --> 00:48:29,320 back on things and, and, and recognize that pattern like you 871 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,800 just did. Absolutely, Yeah, you're right. 872 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:38,200 Because eight years ago, I was someone that had a progressive 873 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,680 mindset. I was agnostic. 874 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:46,920 But eight years later, I'm three child children in perfect life 875 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,440 and I couldn't have hoped for better. 876 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,240 So that's what I'm thankful for. Well, God bless you. 877 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:55,720 I'm, I'm happy to hear the story. 878 00:48:55,720 --> 00:48:57,400 I appreciate you calling in to share it with us. 879 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:58,800 And I appreciate you listening in. 880 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,480 And I hope you have a fantastic and a blessed Thanksgiving, Sir. 881 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:04,760 Thank you. Thanks for calling. 882 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:14,400 All right, Mr. AG cowboy off caller #12 lined up. 883 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,560 Here we go. Tell me, who are you, where are 884 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,520 you, and what is it that you are grateful for? 885 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,000 Hey.

She raised me, still raises me, 888 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:37,320 you know, 57 years. But she was a big fan always, 889 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,920 you know, everything. She worried nightly, every time, 890 00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:43,680 every day that I was an officer of the law. 891 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:51,240 When I had to retire, medically retire, unfortunately, I was, I 892 00:49:51,240 --> 00:49:56,080 was grateful that I was able to pick her birthday and that's the 893 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,640 day I retired. So that's what I'm really 894 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,360 thankful for. That is special. 895 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,120 How many? Thanksgivings, you think you 896 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,760 worked as a as a law enforcement officer over the years? 897 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:14,160 And I'll almost every year it seemed like, Yeah, you know, 898 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:19,560 there's probably a good 15 out of the 20 years I'll probably 899 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:21,840 work Thanksgiving. Yeah. 900 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,160 Just a good reminder for. People that are out there that 901 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,920 there are people who are doing the job just like it's any other 902 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,760 day and we could be grateful for them doing some of those stuff. 903 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,400 I've got a I've got a video that's going to be, it's going 904 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,280 to be hard to watch that I'm going to end with, but I think 905 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,080 you can appreciate it too. Sometimes God puts us right 906 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,400 where we need to be and we don't know why we're there. 907 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:44,400 But anyway, I think I think you in particular will will 908 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,000 recognize it. There are a couple outcomes. 909 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,040 Things can happen. Sometimes it it goes the way we 910 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,640 think it should and sometimes it goes some other way. 911 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,480 And that's OK too. Not for us to necessarily 912 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,440 understand in the in the moment. Absolutely. 913 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:58,600 All right, brother.

So thank you for that. 1077 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:45,920 Sort of I miss, I miss Garrett. I really miss Garrett. 1078 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:52,040 He's doing OK on on good. I I listen to Steve too. 1079 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,240 I love Steve, but it's just not the same without the two of 1080 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:56,280 them. I heard they were such a good 1081 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:57,240 team. I know they are. 1082 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,640 But kudos to you and your wife for homeschooling. 1083 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,640 I think it's the best option there is. 1084 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:10,240 After teaching for many years, I homeschooled for 10, graduated 1085 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:13,800 all my kids, and I went back into the system for a little bit 1086 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:15,840 and I'm like, yeah, this is really bad. 1087 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:20,040 Like it, it's evolved so much in 10 years so I can only imagine a 1088 00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,360 10 year jump and then. Popping back in and realizing 1089 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,600 we're seeing that, yeah, it was crazy. 1090 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:30,080 Yeah, yeah. Admin just telling you to push 1091 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,800 kids through because we can't have a failure rate. 1092 00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:35,320 And then, you know, I taught high school math. 1093 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,240 So you imagine, you know, a kid that didn't learn anything for 1094 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,720 three years getting dumped into my class and I'm supposed to do 1095 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,720 miracles. I'm like, doesn't work that way. 1096 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,640 No, that's worth that way. Yeah. 1097 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,040 But anyway, just wanted to say thank you. 1098 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,720 I've I've managed to get my husband hooked on your show too. 1099 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:52,440 He'll come home and say, did you listen to pal yet? 1100 00:59:53,760 --> 01:00:00,560 I know we I know we debrief, but yeah, thankful for for what your 1101 01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,920 whole suspendable team, known and unknown, have revealed and 1102 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:09,720 brought forth. And I felt to be in the know, 1103 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:14,280 you know, a little bit, but. I hope you and your family have 1104 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,280 a fabulous Thanksgiving, and I mimic what others said, I hope 1105 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,400 you put your phone in the Faraday bag and stay off and 1106 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:22,360 enjoy your time with your family. 1107 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:23,560 It's right here. It's ready to go. 1108 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:25,360 Yeah, exactly. That you know what I heard? 1109 01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,440 That was interesting because it's the same story that my wife 1110 01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,080 and I experienced. You said you spent years 1111 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,960 teaching and then you went and homeschooled your kids and I bet 1112 01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,640 you had no idea that you'd be homeschooling kids and that that 1113 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,080 was what was being prepared for you. 1114 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,400 My wife spent years tutoring. She was in English as a second 1115 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:42,040 language. Teacher. 1116 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,960 For a while and then she got into A to a tutoring company and 1117 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:48,280 taught math and, and taught kids who had learning disabilities. 1118 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,080 And now she's sitting at our kitchen table and she's using 1119 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,080 all those skills that she developed when she was a single 1120 01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,720 person, before she ever met me, before she knew about our babies 1121 01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:58,120 and she had all the skills ready to go. 1122 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,880 I, I couldn't do what she does. I and I'm not prepared for it, 1123 01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,400 but she was. No, I never thought I would. 1124 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:06,840 Home school I I went back to teaching at the same district I 1125 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:11,240 graduated from. I loved my coworkers, I loved 1126 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:17,280 the job and had a really well. We had our kids in Christian 1127 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,280 School, even though it was a public school teacher and things 1128 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:25,040 fell apart and I was trying to help keep a small Christian 1129 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,560 School open while I was teaching. 1130 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,760 And I'm like, I'm working 2 jobs and I'm not with my kids and 1131 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,160 it's not worth it. Nothing's worth it. 1132 01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:37,320 So I walked away from, you know, upwards of 60 grand in my 17th 1133 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:39,520 year of teaching. And I was like, my kids are 1134 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:41,720 worth it. So, you know, we scraped by for 1135 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:43,400 a while, but the sacrifice was worth it. 1136 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:46,000 And my husband, like I said, has worked his ass off. 1137 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:51,280 He now owns a company and you know, things are are a little 1138 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:55,240 easier now these days. But yeah, now I'm now I'm 1139 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,000 starting preschool type things with my grandkids and I'm loving 1140 01:01:58,000 --> 01:01:59,360 it. So how great is that? 1141 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,520 Nothing better. Yeah, that's awesome. 1142 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:03,480 Well, I. Appreciate you and thanks for 1143 01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:04,320 you might. Hear chickens. 1144 01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,360 You might hear chickens. In the background, there in the 1145 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,920 yard in front of me at the moment, that was that was that 1146 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:11,280 was a God thing. We got a little, I got a chicken 1147 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:13,280 video that I'm going to end towards, and then I'm going to 1148 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,600 end with something a little bit heavier, but we'll start with 1149 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,320 this one. It's the story of marrying the 1150 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:19,960 white right person and saving money. 1151 01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,480 And so all the things things you just said are going to be in the 1152 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,160 video as you hang up. You'll be able to empathize and 1153 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,840 and amuse yourself with them and also probably laugh at the 1154 01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:29,880 little bit of humor that we have. 1155 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,240 We're a little bit of a sarcastic group here, so think 1156 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,160 you'd appreciate that. But I wish you I love your 1157 01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:36,680 sarcasm. This one will hit you just right 1158 01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,520 then. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. 1159 01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,040 Thanks so much for being being a part of the audience and sharing 1160 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,960 it with your husband and have a great day. 1161 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:45,960 Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. 1162 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,360 Bye, bye. All right, that's a we're. 1163 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:49,440 Going to we're going to end it right there. 1164 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:52,040 I saw a couple more of you would like to call in and I and I get 1165 01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:54,640 it. Let's let's call it a day right 1166 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:56,760 there with a few things. Here's an uplifting, sort of 1167 01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,600 humorous thing and I'm going to give you one that's a little bit 1168 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,160 more heavy. Just a reminder that some of us 1169 01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:04,000 are carrying extra burdens. So for the for the light hearted 1170 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:08,560 version of it, this is a man recognizing that he's been duped 1171 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,160 into a woman who doesn't cost him a lot of money. 1172 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:13,080 But there's always a cost, right? 1173 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,040 My wife doesn't buy expensive jewelry. 1174 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:16,880 She doesn't go get her nails done every day. 1175 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:18,400 She doesn't get her hair done every three weeks. 1176 01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:20,760 Congratulations, you just got tricked into indentured 1177 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,080 servitude because what you are going to be doing is building 1178 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,080 fences and chicken coops. Now you're going to be the 1179 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,560 stretch and folder for her sourdough project. 1180 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:32,800 What you made-up for in your wallet, you just lost in labor. 1181 01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:34,960 When you have one of those girls who doesn't want to spend a lot 1182 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,360 of money now it's because she's saving money for her homestead. 1183 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,440 My wife doesn't buy expensive. That's it. 1184 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:42,320 My wife didn't want. An expensive ring. 1185 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:44,680 She picked out her own. It was $39.00. 1186 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:49,880 It was made of sterling silver. But she wants a mini cow and she 1187 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,240 wants chickens and she wants all those things. 1188 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:56,200 And I got no problem with doing building fences or anything like 1189 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:57,640 that. So many of you, that's kind of 1190 01:03:57,640 --> 01:03:59,720 what we're all hoping for. If you're there, awesome. 1191 01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:02,160 If you're not and you know you're working towards it and 1192 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:04,000 then there you go too. All right, a little bit heavier 1193 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,120 little thing to end on. Just a reminder that you never 1194 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:08,800 know what the burden is that your neighbor is carrying as 1195 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:10,920 you're walking around. And you can find that out only 1196 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:12,880 by talking to him. If you catch him at the the 1197 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:14,800 worst moment, I hope that you rise to the occasion like this 1198 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,720 man did this, this show, this little video is it's heavy. 1199 01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:24,880 There's nothing else to it, but it is a reminder and this one 1200 01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:26,560 cookie will understand what I'm talking about here. 1201 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,080 And sometimes it goes this way and sometimes it goes the other 1202 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:30,400 way.
