Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Show. Let's have some fun on a Friday,
Speaker 1: an amazing Friday, and ask doctor Jesse Friday our final
Speaker 1: show of the year. I know that's a long time.
Speaker 1: It's not that long to be back before you know it.
Speaker 1: But it's time to check out of here for Christmas
Speaker 1: and Gortz Chris is gonna do Hanukkah and New Year's
Speaker 1: and everything else. But I think we should have three
Speaker 1: hours of fun first, don't you. We're gonna talk right
Speaker 1: here in the open. So I have a bunch of
Speaker 1: these emails about not necessarily the budgeting stuff, the CRS stuff,
Speaker 1: that's where a lot of this stuff comes from. But
Speaker 1: we'll touch on what we might be looking at going
Speaker 1: forward when it comes to the Congress, to House, the Senate,
Speaker 1: Trump how things are gonna look there, We'll touch We'll
Speaker 1: touch on that Nancy Pelosi broke her hip and then
Speaker 1: pause for a photo op. Why why do Democrats vote
Speaker 1: in lockstep? What is it? Are they afraid of their leadership?
Speaker 1: What is it changing your career for more money versus
Speaker 1: more time with your family? All that? Are the trump
Speaker 1: Cases ever going to come back? All kinds of food talk?
Speaker 1: Does health insurance deserve to be wiped off the map.
Speaker 1: Ah that and so much more coming up tonight on
Speaker 1: the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. Now, I am telling
Speaker 1: you one thing right now. I'm not going to get
Speaker 1: into any more of the detail about the Continuing Resolution,
Speaker 1: the budget, the breaking the bill up and not breaking
Speaker 1: the bill up, the votes it's passing his fans. I'm
Speaker 1: not doing all that. I just wanted to because there's
Speaker 1: so many questions. I wanted to first read these for you.
Speaker 1: So let's tackle what we're dealing with here. We had
Speaker 1: a little talk about this last night. We're about to
Speaker 1: have another little talk about it. Possibly offensive, but you
Speaker 1: know that's how it goes. Hey, Jesse, what's behind the
Speaker 1: thirty eight Republicans voting no on the second CR? Is
Speaker 1: it the debt ceiling? Or is there too much garbage
Speaker 1: in the smaller bill? Okay, Okay, set that aside. He's
Speaker 1: talking about the second c R they tried to pass
Speaker 1: last night that failed. The House Freedom Caucus really shot
Speaker 1: it down. Jesse. I don't they recently started watching you.
Speaker 1: I agree that Trump is battling with the Freedom Caucus.
Speaker 1: I think it's bad. The whole issue is confusing what's happening.
Speaker 1: Shut it down? Don't shut it down. I don't get it. Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. Do was also marine? Simplify this one,
Speaker 1: Jesse thirty plus years I tuned into Russia's show every
Speaker 1: day to help me make sense of the government. Those
Speaker 1: thirty eight members, they're my people. I don't care about this, Okay,
Speaker 1: So let's talk about this. I gave you some background
Speaker 1: on it last night. Now let's discuss the House Freedom Caucus,
Speaker 1: the House itself, the Senate, Donald Trump in the different philosophies.
Speaker 1: Remember the right, the right is much different than the left.
Speaker 1: The left has some divisions too. Do you go too
Speaker 1: far left? Do you try to say the left has
Speaker 1: some divisions too, But the right has more divisions than
Speaker 1: the left does because the right is less heard thinking.
Speaker 1: We have less of that here where you have more
Speaker 1: of a value on individual thinking, individual freedom. Now there's
Speaker 1: all kinds of herd mentality too on the right. I'm
Speaker 1: not absolving us of that, But on the left, debt,
Speaker 1: there's much less of that. On the right, there's more
Speaker 1: of it. On the right. You have libertarians super super
Speaker 1: small government, libertarian types very very limited. You have neo conservatives.
Speaker 1: Neo cons they're known as. Now that's kind of getting
Speaker 1: out of fashion, But that would be more of the
Speaker 1: George Bush a Mitt Romney type where they'll cut your
Speaker 1: taxes for you, but they're also going to destroy You're
Speaker 1: gonna absolutely blow up the federal budget. They're gonna pile
Speaker 1: on all kinds of debt because they believe in getting
Speaker 1: involved everywhere on the planet, more military conquests, that kind
Speaker 1: of thing. There are more nationalist types, more nationalist types
Speaker 1: that would be I would qualify that as this I understand.
Speaker 1: I'm not going with dictionary definitions. The more nationalist type
Speaker 1: would be much more of a heavy heavy restrictions on immigration,
Speaker 1: illegal and legal. No, we were got to stop all
Speaker 1: illegal immigration and then stop most legal immigration because America
Speaker 1: should be for Americans. So there's those types, and then
Speaker 1: there's another there's a bunch of different divisions on the right. First,
Speaker 1: let's discuss Donald Trump, because he's the de facto leader
Speaker 1: right now. The newly elected president is always a de
Speaker 1: facto leader of his party. He's a de facto leader
Speaker 1: of the Republican Party. Donald Trump is much more of
Speaker 1: a Teddy Roosevelt Republican than he is a Mitt Romney
Speaker 1: neocon type or Iran Paul libertarian type, or a hardcore
Speaker 1: social conservative type like like a MUC Huckabee or a
Speaker 1: Rick Santorum hardcore social None of those things are really
Speaker 1: what Trump is. He'll flirt and dabble into most of
Speaker 1: those things. But what Trump, for the most part is
Speaker 1: is a Teddy Roosevelt type Republican. What is that? A
Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt type Republican is fairly populist, meaning there are
Speaker 1: gonna be ways in which Trump, based on his philosophy,
Speaker 1: will completely stray from what you would probably consider traditional conservatism.
Speaker 1: Maybe you love that, maybe you hate that, but that's
Speaker 1: a good example of that. Recently, the teamster's union, Trump
Speaker 1: has really really been appealing to blue collar working class types,
Speaker 1: which I love. But this can go a variety of
Speaker 1: different ways, and Longshoreman's union, teamster's union, Trump is going
Speaker 1: to get involved in those negotiations and he'll be more
Speaker 1: on the side of the guys on the ground, which
Speaker 1: actually I like a lot of that, but a lot
Speaker 1: of that can go too far. In two pro union,
Speaker 1: You're not gonna see a traditional Republican do that. Trump
Speaker 1: will Trump will be much more on board with tariffs.
Speaker 1: You know, he loves tariffs. He says it's his favorite
Speaker 1: word in the English language. No, we'll tariff you tariff
Speaker 1: that That is a Teddy Roosevelt style of governing. It's
Speaker 1: not new. Trump didn't invent it, and it's not something
Speaker 1: that Republicans have never done before. That has been the
Speaker 1: Republican Party at periods of time in the past. And
Speaker 1: I addressed this last night. I'll address it again. Trump
Speaker 1: has approached his individual businesses the exact same way he
Speaker 1: approaches government. And there are a lot of business guys
Speaker 1: like this where he doesn't concern himself with debt. He
Speaker 1: may concern himself with waste, but not necessarily debt. Meaning
Speaker 1: if you're Donald Trump and you would you want to
Speaker 1: put a new, gigantic Trump resort in golf course in Madagascar,
Speaker 1: but you've got to take out a five hundred million
Speaker 1: dollar loan to build the Trump golf course and do
Speaker 1: it the way you want, and maybe interest rates are
Speaker 1: a little high, and maybe you're already over leveraged a
Speaker 1: little bit. He's more the type of guy who would say,
Speaker 1: screw it, gotta spend it to make it. Take out
Speaker 1: the loan. We'll put it up there. Just get it
Speaker 1: up there. We'll figure out a way to make it work.
Speaker 1: We'll figure out a way to start piling up money
Speaker 1: in one way. That's how he approaches government. He's getting
Speaker 1: another four years, remember his first four years. And you
Speaker 1: may hate hearing this. I don't give a crap, but
Speaker 1: Donald Trump was and this is again, this goes back
Speaker 1: to Roosevelt type. Roosevelt was exactly the same way. There
Speaker 1: have been many Republicans like this. Donald Trump signed every
Speaker 1: single gigantic, swampy swending bill that crossed his desk. This
Speaker 1: is before COVID too, before COVID. He did it. And
Speaker 1: every time he would get up in the cameras, he
Speaker 1: knew you were mad about it, and he'd say, and
Speaker 1: I don't like this. I'm not gonna do this again.
Speaker 1: This is the one last time. And then the next
Speaker 1: time it would come he would sign it. And most
Speaker 1: of those bills, most of those bills were passed with
Speaker 1: the majority of Democrats. Democrats were heavily involved in those bills.
Speaker 1: There was a group in the House of Representatives, the
Speaker 1: House Freedom Caucus, who opposed every single one of those bills,
Speaker 1: and screamed about every single one of those bills because
Speaker 1: they are really focused on the debt and the deficits.
Speaker 1: And that's a big thing for the House of Freedom Caucus.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the Freedom Caucus and Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to understand this going forwards. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be this is gonna come up again and again and
Speaker 1: again and again again. This is why we're having this
Speaker 1: conversation now. Donald Trump wants to spend money. Yes, he's
Speaker 1: bringing in Elon Musk, and he's bringing in Vibeck, and
Speaker 1: he wants to cut waste and all that's great, and
Speaker 1: he wants to do great things on the border. And
Speaker 1: maybe you're fine with spending money. It just depends on
Speaker 1: philosophically how you look at it. But Donald Trump wants
Speaker 1: to spend gargantuan amounts of money in his next four
Speaker 1: years the same way he did his last four years,
Speaker 1: and he would look at that. He does look at
Speaker 1: that as a way to deal. He wants to make
Speaker 1: a deal. He was always trying to make a deal
Speaker 1: the first term. That's just those crazy idiot comedies would
Speaker 1: never strike a deal with him because they acted like
Speaker 1: he was some hardcore right winger, which he wasn't. He
Speaker 1: always wanted to just make a deal. No, no, no, we'll
Speaker 1: give you another one hundred billion for that, but then
Speaker 1: you give me one hundred billion of this that we're
Speaker 1: all negotiating, right the art of the deal. That's how
Speaker 1: he approaches government. If you start restricting the spending, if
Speaker 1: you start putting a cap on the debt with debt
Speaker 1: limit stuff, then Trump looks at that, and I don't
Speaker 1: necessarily think he's incorrect about this. Trump looks at that
Speaker 1: as wait a minute, you're capping me and all the
Speaker 1: things I want to do. I'm about to take over
Speaker 1: the office of the presidency. I'm going to want to
Speaker 1: spend money on this, and I'm going to want to
Speaker 1: spend money on that. And I'm gonna want the freedom
Speaker 1: to spend more money on this and throw that money
Speaker 1: and there. And if you start capping me with the
Speaker 1: debt ceiling, you start freaking out about debts and deficits, deficits,
Speaker 1: you're going to limit me. This is a conflict that
Speaker 1: not only is existing right now, it will exist going forward.
Speaker 1: That's the reason we're having this talk. I'll wrap this
Speaker 1: up really quickly so I don't want to spend much
Speaker 1: more time on this The Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday,
Speaker 1: about to get into all the other asked Doctor Jesse questions.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to try to clarify, not just the
Speaker 1: argument that's taking place right now in the government. Do
Speaker 1: you pass this budget? Do you split the bill up,
Speaker 1: should you simplify it? Do you raise the debt ceiling?
Speaker 1: Do you not raise the debt ceiling? I wanted to
Speaker 1: clarify a conflict that is going to keep coming up.
Speaker 1: What we're seeing right now. This isn't a one off.
Speaker 1: This will be a conflict that comes up repeatedly for
Speaker 1: the next four years. A conflict between the more hardcore
Speaker 1: House Republicans, most of whom you like, the Thomas Massy types,
Speaker 1: those types, the more hardcore deficit debt hawks, versus how
Speaker 1: Donald Trump governs. It's a different There are two different brands.
Speaker 1: Those two are most definitely two different brands of Republicanism.
Speaker 1: Much of the time they are going to be united
Speaker 1: on things. Donald Trump steps up there and says we
Speaker 1: need a bunch of money to deport all the illegals
Speaker 1: and build the border wall. Everyone's going to be unified there.
Speaker 1: It's not going to be that way all the time.
Speaker 1: Get used to this conflict, and the only advice I
Speaker 1: will give you going forward, it's not about this one.
Speaker 1: It's about this one and all of them. The only
Speaker 1: advice I will give you going forward is read, or
Speaker 1: watch or listen to different things from different perspectives and
Speaker 1: form your own opinion every single time one of these
Speaker 1: come up. The worst thing is not to potentially be
Speaker 1: on the wrong side of an issue. Everyone's on the
Speaker 1: wrong side of an issue from time to time, even me,
Speaker 1: believe it or not. But the worst thing is to
Speaker 1: be a lemming, to be a brain dead sheep or
Speaker 1: a lemming where you go to one source or listen
Speaker 1: to one person and you just happen to agree with
Speaker 1: whatever that person says, even if that person happens to
Speaker 1: be me. I am not a god, I am not
Speaker 1: all knowing. I'm none of these things. I have opinions
Speaker 1: about things. I read what I can, I watch what
Speaker 1: I can. I try to come up with a good
Speaker 1: solution for the country, and that's what I care about.
Speaker 1: Don't listen, don't echo every single thing that comes out
Speaker 1: of my mouth or anyone's mouth, not the other radio guy,
Speaker 1: not the other guy you read, not Donald Trump, not
Speaker 1: Rondes Santis, not Chip Roy, not to not Mike Johnson,
Speaker 1: not Lindsey Graham, not John Cornyn, No, none of them.
Speaker 1: You come up with your own aions based on things.
Speaker 1: But that conflict I just brought up a conflict that's
Speaker 1: going on now, is a conflict that's going to go
Speaker 1: on in the future. And the conflict gets more complicated
Speaker 1: when you add in the other factors. Okay, so you
Speaker 1: have these people in the Freedom Caucus, the ones who
Speaker 1: stopped that large monstrosity last night, and let me let
Speaker 1: me clarify. Once they killed the first bill, remember how
Speaker 1: I told you that we're going to bring up another
Speaker 1: bill and they were just gonna shave off some of
Speaker 1: the bad stuff, and the bill was going to be
Speaker 1: just as bad. Yeah, the Oracle was right about that too.
Speaker 1: They shaved off some of the bad stuff, some of
Speaker 1: the headline stuff, the biolab crap and that stuff. They
Speaker 1: shaved it off. And the bill last night that the
Speaker 1: House Freedom Caucus shot down spent just as much money
Speaker 1: as the previous one did. I told you that's what
Speaker 1: they were gonna do. So going forward, not only is
Speaker 1: that going to be a point of conflict. You have
Speaker 1: other factors at stake, You have other people involved. You
Speaker 1: have the establishment GOP type. They are essentially the enemy.
Speaker 1: Those are the types who don't want any reforms in government.
Speaker 1: They don't want any departments to lose a single penny.
Speaker 1: Were here at our government and they want everything to
Speaker 1: keep going the way it's always gone. They're another factor
Speaker 1: in all this. And then you have to deal with
Speaker 1: the communists. The communists are always going to throw a
Speaker 1: monkey wrench in things too. Things are always going to
Speaker 1: be complicated when you have this many different groups, different
Speaker 1: interests pursuing different things. That's how politics works. All we
Speaker 1: can do is digest what we can digest. We will
Speaker 1: apply pressure where pressure is necessary and effect as much
Speaker 1: change as we possibly can. Let us move on, because
Speaker 1: actually this goes perfectly involved. We're perfectly in line with
Speaker 1: everything we were just saying, Jesse. How do Democrats vote
Speaker 1: and behave in lockstep with whatever the party leader commands?
Speaker 1: Is it a fear of getting primary not appointed to
Speaker 1: committees or are they all dirty commedies? Okay, first I
Speaker 1: need to explain because there's a bunch of different things here.
Speaker 1: Why is that the case? For instance, when Joe Biden
Speaker 1: gets elected, go back and looks fascinating if you go
Speaker 1: back and look at the numbers. Look at Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: cabinet appointments, the guys he wanted to get, Lloyd Austin's
Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln, the guys he's appointing to critical posts in
Speaker 1: his government. Go look at not just the Democrat votes,
Speaker 1: how each Democrat voted in the Senate. Because they all
Speaker 1: voted yes, go look at their public statements. Let me
Speaker 1: ask you. Can you find well it was Call it
Speaker 1: Lloyd Austin. We'll make it about lawyer. Let's simplify this.
Speaker 1: Make it Lloyd Austin. Now, Lloyd Austin had a long
Speaker 1: military career before he was put up to be SECTAF,
Speaker 1: before he was set up to be Secretary of State.
Speaker 1: Here's a challenge for you, as long as you're not driving,
Speaker 1: go and find for me the Democrat United States senator
Speaker 1: who had a single negative word to say about Lloyd
Speaker 1: Austin after he was appointed sect deaf. Oh, I'll give
Speaker 1: you as much time as you need. Good luck. Democrats.
Speaker 1: They vote the Democrats in the Senate. They all simply
Speaker 1: view it as part of their job to give a
Speaker 1: thumbs up to whatever their president wants. When it comes
Speaker 1: to cabinet picks the losers in the GOP, the GOP establishment,
Speaker 1: they will oftentimes vote right along with that. Lindsey Graham times, well,
Speaker 1: I mean he deserves to have its appointments. Lindsey Graham
Speaker 1: loves to say that. And then the second a Republican
Speaker 1: like Trump gets elected, he wants Pete Hegseth in there,
Speaker 1: Matt Gates, any of these people. Then the Republicans, well,
Speaker 1: I mean it is our job to advise and consent.
Speaker 1: We really have to do our job here, guys, and
Speaker 1: dig in. There are a lot of reasons for that
Speaker 1: lockstep way of voting, and it will go into those
Speaker 1: reasons in a moment. Before we do that, let's go
Speaker 1: into this. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday,
Speaker 1: and ask doctor Jesse Friday, don't forget even while I'm gone.
Speaker 1: You can email me Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Speaker 1: I'll get it when I'm back. Jewish producer Christ and
Speaker 1: producer Cory are still going to be here. They'll read
Speaker 1: them and they'll give them to me when I get back.
Speaker 1: You can leave me voicemails eight seven seven three seven
Speaker 1: seven four three seven three. Okay, so the guy asked,
Speaker 1: why do you Democrats vote in lockstep? Republicans do not,
Speaker 1: but the Democrats do. First, realize, as we have discussed
Speaker 1: many times before, that the desire for freedom to think
Speaker 1: about things in your own way, to come up with
Speaker 1: your own conclusion about things that is not universal. People
Speaker 1: like you who value freedom. You make the mistake, I
Speaker 1: make it too, of thinking that other people share that value.
Speaker 1: Many people are drawn to Democrat policies, to the Democrat
Speaker 1: Party because they don't have any desire for freedom whatsoever.
Speaker 1: They want to be part of a herd. Most people
Speaker 1: are like why I shouldn't say most people. A lot
Speaker 1: of people just want to be part of the crowd.
Speaker 1: They want to be like everyone else. It's very safe,
Speaker 1: extremely safe. And so once you become part of a herd, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can look at it this way. You can look
Speaker 1: at it cults like this or gangs like this, or
Speaker 1: once you become part of a cult or herd or something,
Speaker 1: you will go which every way you are led. And
Speaker 1: it's very very very rare for somebody to step away
Speaker 1: and break away from that, even if they disagree with
Speaker 1: individual things that may be done in the cult. And
Speaker 1: this is a very extreme example, but when you look
Speaker 1: at guys like Jim Jones, Jim Jones drags all of
Speaker 1: his cult followers into the jungle and soon, because of
Speaker 1: course these morons can't farm or do anything. Soon these
Speaker 1: people are starving. And you think there were people there thinking,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, we don't even know how to make food.
Speaker 1: This is stupid. We're starving. How many people revolted, Oh,
Speaker 1: some did, but not that many did because it's just
Speaker 1: safer to be part of the herd. That's how so
Speaker 1: many people think. And Democrats think that way, in an
Speaker 1: extreme way, even if they have individual disagreements. Do you
Speaker 1: think every single elected Democrat, Senator and Democrat and the
Speaker 1: House of Representatives wants to talk, think or or sit
Speaker 1: in praise trainings? Do you think they want to do that?
Speaker 1: You think they look at the dude who's playing Woman's rugby,
Speaker 1: beating the crap out out of all the women. He's
Speaker 1: six four or two fifty of pure muscle. Do you
Speaker 1: think they can't see that dude's a dude? And do
Speaker 1: you think they like it? Do you think they all
Speaker 1: like it? They go home and they tell their wives.
Speaker 1: They go home and they tell their husbands, gosh, did
Speaker 1: you see that freak beating up all the chicks on
Speaker 1: the rugby field. It was terrible. But they know if
Speaker 1: they come out and say something publicly that will be
Speaker 1: viewed as betraying the herd. It will not be accepted,
Speaker 1: it will not be a well I mean, he looks
Speaker 1: at things a little differently. It will be looked as treason,
Speaker 1: a flat out betrayal of the herd. That's how they
Speaker 1: look at it. And one of the reasons people were
Speaker 1: hesitant to leave Jim Jones's cult, and one of the
Speaker 1: reasons people are hesitant to leave all cults is oftentimes
Speaker 1: the person who tries to leave has to have an
Speaker 1: example made of them. And that example is made for
Speaker 1: a reason. You've seen movies like this, or like I said,
Speaker 1: gangs and colts. Go ahead and get caught trying to leave,
Speaker 1: They'll beat you to death in front of everyone else.
Speaker 1: They'll kill you, they'll torture you to death. They'll do
Speaker 1: these things, and it's not just for you. In fact,
Speaker 1: it's not really for you at all. It's not even
Speaker 1: really a punishment for leaving it's so everyone else can
Speaker 1: see what happens when you leave. If you are a
Speaker 1: Democrat and you step up and say something like, ah,
Speaker 1: maybe we shouldn't abort every child, then you will be
Speaker 1: ripped to shreds. Who's that one Democrat Seth Moulton, I
Speaker 1: think his name is that member of the House of
Speaker 1: Representatives he's recently since the election. He didn't even say
Speaker 1: anything remotely radical or even remotely right wing. All he
Speaker 1: said was, Hey, when it comes to the tranny stuff,
Speaker 1: I don't think dudes should probably be playing against women
Speaker 1: in sports. There's just a danger there. He didn't even
Speaker 1: say any against tranny's or whatever. It was really a
Speaker 1: very benign thing. I kind of don't think a dude
Speaker 1: should be playing volleyball against chicks and spiking the ball
Speaker 1: off their faces at one hundred miles an hour. That
Speaker 1: doesn't seem right. That's always said it was the most
Speaker 1: benign thing in the world. He has been ripped to
Speaker 1: shreds from the day he said that. And part of
Speaker 1: the reason they're doing that to him is not for him,
Speaker 1: and so everyone else can see. That's what happens when
Speaker 1: you betray the herd. Dear rat assassin. I have a
Speaker 1: question about a potential career change that I need some
Speaker 1: outside perspective on. I'm a railroad mechanic and I have
Speaker 1: an opportunity to potentially switch to another job at my company.
Speaker 1: This comes with a much higher pay, approximately double with overtime,
Speaker 1: but also a lot of travel, working on call twenty
Speaker 1: four hours a day. Normally I would not mind this
Speaker 1: at all, but I have a three year old son
Speaker 1: and I am worried with the travel, long hours, and
Speaker 1: on call work. I will miss a lot of things
Speaker 1: with him. I currently work midnight to eight am, so
Speaker 1: I'm around for everything he does. On the other hand,
Speaker 1: being able to double my income would be a huge
Speaker 1: financial boost for my family in the midst of sky
Speaker 1: high price increases the past few years. Any thoughts, he says,
Speaker 1: I can say his name, his name is Mark, Well,
Speaker 1: I have many thoughts on this, Mark. And the answer
Speaker 1: to this is not nearly as simple as you're probably
Speaker 1: making it out to be, because there are there are
Speaker 1: two ways you can answer this question, and both sides
Speaker 1: will feel very, very very strongly about this answer. The
Speaker 1: minority answer, although the people who answer it this way
Speaker 1: will feel strongly about it. The minority answer will come
Speaker 1: from men. Mostly, it's almost it will be almost universally
Speaker 1: men who answer it in this way. Making more money,
Speaker 1: to better to raise up your family financially is one
Speaker 1: of the roles of a man, one of the duties
Speaker 1: of a man. And to be able to provide better food,
Speaker 1: better housing, better cars, better health care, and potentially provide
Speaker 1: a better opportunity for the next generation. That is part
Speaker 1: of being a man. And you know what those guys
Speaker 1: have wrong about that? Nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you right now. My father who recently passed, as you know,
Speaker 1: my father, he was not there all the time. He
Speaker 1: was not He was not at all my games. He
Speaker 1: was not there for this thing in school or that
Speaker 1: thing in school. My father was a construction guy. That's
Speaker 1: what he did, and that took it. Construction is depending
Speaker 1: on what kind you do. We did underground construction, water
Speaker 1: and sewer line stuff. And you know where you do construction,
Speaker 1: wherever the work is, they don't put it right next
Speaker 1: to your house. It's not in the same office ten
Speaker 1: to fifteen minutes away. You go out on projects. My
Speaker 1: dad was gone a lot, busting his hide a lot.
Speaker 1: And as a child because I'm gonna give you the
Speaker 1: other side of this coin, and then i'll give you
Speaker 1: my opinion on it. But as a child, I missed
Speaker 1: him a lot. I missed him. Is Dad gonna be there?
Speaker 1: I hope Dad's gonna be there, And sometimes that answer
Speaker 1: was no. Oftentimes that answer was no, I missed him.
Speaker 1: And because I'm gonna give you the honest answer about
Speaker 1: everything here, i'll tell you right now. I'm forty three
Speaker 1: years old, and I actually had a couple sad moments
Speaker 1: last night thinking about my dad. I think about the
Speaker 1: things that I actually said to myself in a quiet
Speaker 1: moment last night. I wish we could have talked more, right,
Speaker 1: I wish we could have hung out more. So, if
Speaker 1: you take this job, this extra job, extra pay, it's
Speaker 1: not all negative, but there's a chance when you're dead
Speaker 1: and gone, one day that boy of yours who's three
Speaker 1: years old, he'll be forty three like me. Maybe he'll
Speaker 1: be getting a little teary eyed in the laundry room
Speaker 1: having that conversation with himself. You have to understand that's coming.
Speaker 1: It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday and
Speaker 1: asks doctor Jesse Friday, reminding you you can download the
Speaker 1: whole show. iHeart Spotify iTunes. We'll get to Nancy Pelosi
Speaker 1: doing a photo op after she broke her hip in
Speaker 1: just a moment. I'm gonna finish this question. The question
Speaker 1: was guys about to get promoted if he wants to
Speaker 1: double the pay, but it'll mean a lot less time
Speaker 1: with his kid, travel on call. He's got a three
Speaker 1: year old son. And I gave you the the It'll
Speaker 1: be almost exclusively males who say, yes, you need to
Speaker 1: do it. That's how you can raise your family up.
Speaker 1: And that's how I was raised. That's how my father,
Speaker 1: that's how that was his philosophy on life, period and
Speaker 1: his story. No, I'm gonna go make sure we have
Speaker 1: a roof over our head, and he always made sure.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go make sure they have hot food. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go make sure this and that. But I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be at every basketball game. I'm not gonna be
Speaker 1: there for this and there for that. I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: gone a lot, a lot. So I gave you that
Speaker 1: perspective on it. Now from the other side of it,
Speaker 1: I will tell you that I probably if I'm being Franks,
Speaker 1: just you and me talking if I'm being honest, probably
Speaker 1: because of how often I missed my dad when I
Speaker 1: was a kid, I parents in the exact opposite way.
Speaker 1: When it comes to that stuff. I am at Chris
Speaker 1: is laughing. I'm at everything, absolutely everything. If there is
Speaker 1: a concert back when they were and they had these
Speaker 1: all the time when they were in the kindergarten choir,
Speaker 1: and I have to go listen to a bunch of
Speaker 1: kindergarteners scream and pick their noses for an hour, boring, brutal, horrible,
Speaker 1: I'll be there, period and a story. I'm gonna be there.
Speaker 1: If it's possible for me to be there, I will
Speaker 1: be there. Now. I've had to miss things because of work.
Speaker 1: That's just is the way it is. Sometimes you get
Speaker 1: called out of town, you got to go for this
Speaker 1: or that. But if it is possible, I am there
Speaker 1: for every single thing, because I want my sons to
Speaker 1: remember I was there. Actually, when it comes to this job,
Speaker 1: one of the things that it's odd, So I'll just
Speaker 1: go ahead and lay it out for you. One of
Speaker 1: the things you realize when you start doing this for
Speaker 1: a living, if people value your opinion, that people want
Speaker 1: to hear what you have to say, then, obviously people
Speaker 1: will figure out a way to make money off of that.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what this is, right. It's a radio show.
Speaker 1: It's not a charity. I've never pretended it was a charity.
Speaker 1: It's an advertiser supported radio show. The only reason I
Speaker 1: get away with doing this show every day and saying
Speaker 1: all the offensive crap I do is because the show
Speaker 1: does very well for the advertisers in the show, because
Speaker 1: we hand select those so they're partners ones we believe in,
Speaker 1: and it's a marriage like that. But it's a for
Speaker 1: profit enterprise. I promise you. If I start losing money tomorrow,
Speaker 1: goodbye Jesse Kelly Show. There's no more Jesse Kelly Show. Right,
Speaker 1: So there's money to be made when people want to
Speaker 1: tune in and listen to your opinion. Same thing on
Speaker 1: my TV show. There's money to be made there. Well,
Speaker 1: think about this. So I do a three hour TV
Speaker 1: show every day and a one hour or sorry, three
Speaker 1: hour radio show every day, and a one hour TV show.
Speaker 1: My TV show is on the first TV It's on
Speaker 1: right after this show nine pm Eastern Time. That's four
Speaker 1: hours of talking to day. I'm not complaining, but that's
Speaker 1: four hours of talking to day. You know what they
Speaker 1: always want always always you know what they always want.
Speaker 1: They always want you to do more. Hey, do you
Speaker 1: think maybe you could actually we had this half hour thing.
Speaker 1: We could set this up for tonight when you get
Speaker 1: home at eight o'clock Eastern time, if you could do
Speaker 1: a forty five minute live Q and a thing on Instagram.
Speaker 1: And I'm not complaining about anyone who's ever suggested something
Speaker 1: like that to me. I'm really genuinely not But if
Speaker 1: I wanted to let them, I would do that. I
Speaker 1: would just talk about politics and life for eight hours
Speaker 1: a day. If I just did everything I was asked
Speaker 1: to do, why don't I do that? I'm ambitious. I'm
Speaker 1: as ambitious as the next guy. Not necessarily for money.
Speaker 1: That's not really my thing. I just like to win.
Speaker 1: I would to be number one. It's like to win.
Speaker 1: I could do that. Why don't I? But because then
Speaker 1: I never see my wife, I never see my kids.
Speaker 1: When I got home last night, I sat down with
Speaker 1: my two idiot meadhead sons and my wife and we
Speaker 1: laughed and we yout at each other. We were talking
Speaker 1: about the day, and it was just it was an
Speaker 1: hour sitting at the kitchen counter. The boys were, of
Speaker 1: course stuffing their faces, and I was eating. I was
Speaker 1: stuff in my face too. Ab had made her homemade
Speaker 1: hamburger helper, and we're sitting there and we're eating and
Speaker 1: we're just laughing and talking. I wouldn't give that up
Speaker 1: for all the rice in China. So no, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to do forty five minutes on Instagram. I'm not.
Speaker 1: My boys are almost on they're sixteen and fifteen. I
Speaker 1: don't have very much time with them left. They're almost gone,
Speaker 1: and when they're gone, I'm never going to get that
Speaker 1: childhood back. So I'm maximizing every minute now. I don't
Speaker 1: know if I gave you an answer to your question
Speaker 1: about taking the job or not taking the job. I
Speaker 1: guess it would depend on where your pay is now.
Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, If you are making
Speaker 1: a living now, well you know what I'll make it
Speaker 1: about me. I'm making a living now. I have a house,
Speaker 1: we have a couple of cars. I don't have a boat,
Speaker 1: and I don't need a boat, and I can't afford
Speaker 1: a boat. I don't have a jet, and I don't
Speaker 1: have a mansion, and I don't But I'm not complaining
Speaker 1: at all. I do just fine. If you would to sit.
Speaker 1: And if someone walked in right now, some dude in
Speaker 1: a big, fancy Italian suit. I don't know why I'd
Speaker 1: be Italian. It just felt right. If some dude in
Speaker 1: a fancy Italian suit walked in as soon as I
Speaker 1: go to commercial break here and he said, hey, Jesse,
Speaker 1: I've got great news. I'm gonna triple your pay for
Speaker 1: the year twenty twenty five, but it will cut your
Speaker 1: family time in half. I tell him, thanks, but no, thanks,
Speaker 1: turn around and leave. I'm not interested, just not interested.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna be there for every
Speaker 1: ball game, every crappy concert, every swim meat I possibly can.
Speaker 1: That's my thing, all right, all right, Rough Greens is
Speaker 1: also my thing. I'm a big fan. I'm a big
Speaker 1: fan because Fred, well, he's really taken over the family.
Speaker 1: I'm very embarrassed to say he's taken over the family. Now.
Speaker 1: Now aub has found a blanket, an old, crappy blanket
Speaker 1: she doesn't like, and she throws it on the furniture
Speaker 1: when she wants Fred to get up there to cuddle
Speaker 1: with her. He's like a seventy five pound monster dog
Speaker 1: and he's a big fluffy teddy bear. And that's why
Speaker 1: we give him rough greens. That's why we sprinkle rough
Speaker 1: greens on his food because we want Fred to be
Speaker 1: up there annoying me on the furniture for a very
Speaker 1: long time. And Fred will die too early if we
Speaker 1: just give him dog food, because there's no nutrition in
Speaker 1: dog food. Your dog, your cat, they need rough greens
Speaker 1: or Milegreens, depending on what you've got. Omega Oil's probiotics,
Speaker 1: Viidamin's minerals. These things are not found in your pet's food.
Speaker 1: Try a free Jumpstart trio bag. Your animal will love
Speaker 1: it and it will live longer. You'll see differences in
Speaker 1: their coat, their breath, their energy. Eight three three three
Speaker 1: three My dog or go to Roughgreens dot com. Slash Jesse,
Speaker 1: Dear Jesse, Chris and Corey. Who falls down the stairs
Speaker 1: This is the subject is Grandma Vodka's broken hip. Who
Speaker 1: falls down the hairs down the stairs, breaks a hip
Speaker 1: and then poses for a photo op singularly minded and
Speaker 1: speaks volumes, doesn't it Mary, Chris? She said sorry Chris
Speaker 1: Hanukkah and blessings to you and yours. And her name
Speaker 1: is Nancy. I saw that Nancy Pelosi, sadly, I hate
Speaker 1: when old people fall, even when it's old people I hate,
Speaker 1: took a nasty tumble down the stairs, broke a bunch
Speaker 1: of bones, and then immediately posed for a photo op.
Speaker 1: And I thought this was a fascinating question, because there
Speaker 1: is something fascinating about politics and politicians that I've watched
Speaker 1: happen many, many, many times before. I'm sure you have two,
Speaker 1: and we'll discuss that thing next
