WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Jesse Kelly Show, let's have some fun on a Thursday

2
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:13.679
<v Speaker 1>and all we are going to have so much fun

3
00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:19.199
<v Speaker 1>tonight on a Thursday, and ask doctor Jesse Thursday. Dome

4
00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:21.559
<v Speaker 1>has a book coming out. We'll make fun of her,

5
00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:24.559
<v Speaker 1>but of course we have to make it about you

6
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:28.320
<v Speaker 1>and your questions. And man, I hope you like history,

7
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:31.600
<v Speaker 1>because we're apparently gonna do a lot of that tonight.

8
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:36.320
<v Speaker 1>We're also gonna talk about single subject bills, illegal immigration,

9
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:41.200
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna talk about people believing the mainstream media, also

10
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>believing mainstream science, fascinating questions from you. It's going to

11
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:52.159
<v Speaker 1>be a rip roaring good time. So let us begin now.

12
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.119
<v Speaker 1>I want to begin with actually kind of a different

13
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.479
<v Speaker 1>one that I just thought was so cool. And I

14
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:03.159
<v Speaker 1>got a bunch of these emails, different forms of them.

15
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I can't read them all. I'm not going to read

16
00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>them all. It would be too boring, but there just

17
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:13.439
<v Speaker 1>know that I loved them all. Personal connections to World

18
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:16.799
<v Speaker 1>War two and the Kama Kazi stuff that we talked

19
00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:18.719
<v Speaker 1>about earlier in the week. Don't worry, I'll get to

20
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:20.519
<v Speaker 1>politics in a minute. We're going to talk about single

21
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:23.480
<v Speaker 1>subject bills and things like that. So it's going to

22
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 1>be up and down in history and modern and all

23
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:28.239
<v Speaker 1>kinds of things tonight on the Jesse Kelly Show. But

24
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I got a bunch of these, and so many of these, man,

25
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:35.319
<v Speaker 1>it's just amazing. The subject to this one is Kama

26
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Kazi show USS Franklin. The USS Franklin, for those who

27
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:45.879
<v Speaker 1>don't know, was a World War Two aircraft carrier suffered

28
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>horribly a Kama Kazi attack. I hope I don't mess

29
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.519
<v Speaker 1>this up. I believe over three hundred men on that

30
00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:58.959
<v Speaker 1>ship died in one Kama Kazi attack. It was terrible,

31
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Speaker 1>fire's bombs, it was awful. They had a ceremony to

32
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>bury the men at sea the next day, and I

33
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.359
<v Speaker 1>think it was eight hours long if I remember right.

34
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.719
<v Speaker 1>It was terrible. Anyway, this guy says, Jesse, the Kama

35
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Kazi history lesson was off awesome. I just finished it

36
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.639
<v Speaker 1>while catching up on your show. I wanted to share

37
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:22.759
<v Speaker 1>a cool story of my grandfather, Benjamin Marion Ricks. He

38
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 1>was on the USS Franklin when it was attacked by

39
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:31.159
<v Speaker 1>Japanese Kama Kazis. After sustaining catastrophic damage and massive casualties,

40
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it became known as the Ship that would not die.

41
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:39.560
<v Speaker 1>They defended multiple waves of kamakazis before the USS Pittsburgh

42
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:43.680
<v Speaker 1>came to rescue and tugged it into Pearl. They tugged

43
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>ships back to Pearl Harbor, back to San Francisco, back

44
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:48.599
<v Speaker 1>to several places in America for repairs when they couldn't

45
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:50.759
<v Speaker 1>repair them at see by the way, those who didn't

46
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>abandon ship were given the prestigious award of being in

47
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:58.520
<v Speaker 1>the seven zero four Club, which Ben was part of.

48
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I can't put all the detail in this email because

49
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>you will just lose attention and throw my email in

50
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the trash. That's not true, all right, it's true. After

51
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 1>my grandfather was discharged and the war was over, Ben

52
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.800
<v Speaker 1>got dropped off in Brooklyn, New York, where he promptly

53
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:19.719
<v Speaker 1>borrowed his buddy's motorcycle to pick up my at the

54
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:24.680
<v Speaker 1>time sixteen year old grandmother and crashed on the way

55
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:27.879
<v Speaker 1>to their first date. He was thrown in jail for

56
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 1>being well dating a sixteen year old. He gets out

57
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:35.599
<v Speaker 1>of jail, visits her at the hospital. They fell in love,

58
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:40.159
<v Speaker 1>got married, had my mom. He and Peg lived until

59
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 1>their nineties. They just don't make them like they used to.

60
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Man John is this guy's name. And that's the kind

61
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>of stuff you send me. When we do these kinds

62
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>of histories, whether it's Vietnam or Korea or World War two,

63
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 1>or it becomes alive and special, and I love it,

64
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:04.159
<v Speaker 1>blesses us beyond end here the Jesse Kelly Show. When

65
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:08.240
<v Speaker 1>we can bless you in that way, and it's awesome.

66
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Now let's move on. We'll do some ugly politics stuff.

67
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.479
<v Speaker 1>But I'm warning you, apparently history was on your mind.

68
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of that coming tonight, a lot of

69
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>it coming tonight, and I'm just in that kind of

70
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:21.879
<v Speaker 1>a mood. Plus, there's no gigantic world ending story we

71
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.040
<v Speaker 1>have to tackle. So maybe we'll just screw off for

72
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.720
<v Speaker 1>a while tonight. But let's do get to some, honestly

73
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:30.439
<v Speaker 1>some important items like this one, Dear Jesse. While we

74
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:35.959
<v Speaker 1>control everything, why do Republicans not bring forth single item

75
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 1>bills like requiring voter id or including males from female sports.

76
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.639
<v Speaker 1>His name is Gil. It's a very good question. You

77
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 1>could ask the question about a lot of things. We

78
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:52.399
<v Speaker 1>have the House, we have, the Senate, we have the presidency.

79
00:04:54.240 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 1>A single item bill seems so simple, doesn't it very simple?

80
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Speaker 1>It's there's no negative to it. Why why not bring

81
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:11.519
<v Speaker 1>that forward? So you know how we talked yesterday. Maybe

82
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:17.199
<v Speaker 1>you remember we were talking about the communist politicians, Democrat politicians,

83
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>and I was warning about the real Admiral Buddhaje Edge,

84
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:24.680
<v Speaker 1>how he's a true believer, he's got a real hate,

85
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.519
<v Speaker 1>a hatred, a darkness inside of him, a real hatred

86
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:32.920
<v Speaker 1>for America. But then I brought up Chuck Schumer. I mean,

87
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Chuck Schumer is I called him a lizard person yesterday,

88
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>and I really do mean that. You can hear it

89
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:44.000
<v Speaker 1>when he talks. Chuck Schumer doesn't believe in anything, nothing,

90
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>not right wing, not left wing. He's been a soulless

91
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:53.199
<v Speaker 1>politician for so long he can't even really fake it

92
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 1>that well, whenever he's out there giving a speech about something,

93
00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>he just he's going to say and do whatever it

94
00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:04.920
<v Speaker 1>is that keeps him in power. All right, you probably

95
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:10.079
<v Speaker 1>remember we talked about that yesterday. Well, here's here's the

96
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:15.199
<v Speaker 1>bad side of that, the truth of that. You don't

97
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:21.480
<v Speaker 1>think it's only Democrats who do that, right? How many

98
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>elected Republicans at every level in this country do you

99
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>think are only committed to staying in power it's a lot.

100
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:38.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not all of them. I'm not saying that they're

101
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.360
<v Speaker 1>all crooks, they're all trash. That's not true at all.

102
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of these people personally. Yes, there

103
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of them who are crooks in trash.

104
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:49.279
<v Speaker 1>There are a lot of really good people. But there

105
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:53.879
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of people who are simply a Republican

106
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 1>version of Chuck Schumer. And they'll tell you the things

107
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.759
<v Speaker 1>you want to hear when they think they can manipulate you,

108
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:09.040
<v Speaker 1>but they're not in it for America or a secure border,

109
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:14.279
<v Speaker 1>or low taxes or cutting spending or pro life or

110
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>whatever your issue is or my issue is. They're lizard people,

111
00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:24.160
<v Speaker 1>just like Chuck Schumer is, who will say whatever they

112
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:28.680
<v Speaker 1>have to say on camera, but when it comes down

113
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to brass tax they're not going to actually do anything.

114
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:39.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember I actually kind of slips in my

115
00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:42.680
<v Speaker 1>mind what the issue was in Wyoming. I believe it

116
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.839
<v Speaker 1>was a boys and girls' sports issue. Wyoming. You may

117
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.079
<v Speaker 1>be not familiar with Wyoming. I am, because I grew

118
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.279
<v Speaker 1>up in Montana. We'd go down to Wyoming, we go

119
00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 1>anelope hunting. Wyoming is a beautiful, really really cool state,

120
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.519
<v Speaker 1>but there's like nobody there. It's enormous, and I think

121
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.199
<v Speaker 1>the population is something like five hundred thousand people. It's

122
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:04.319
<v Speaker 1>just there's just nobody there. The weather's brutal, it's not

123
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>many people can can survive that kind of weather want

124
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:12.319
<v Speaker 1>to survive that kind of weather. But Wyoming is unbelievably red.

125
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:15.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they only have I haven't looked in a while.

126
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>One maximum two congressional seats. I bet you it's one.

127
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>I guarantee it's Republican. But it's more than that. If

128
00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:26.759
<v Speaker 1>you break the state down by their state seats, state House,

129
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:31.639
<v Speaker 1>state Senate, I'm not sure there is an elected Democrat

130
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 1>in a state wide seat in Wyoming. It's just red.

131
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:36.799
<v Speaker 1>And if there is, there's one or two, it's just red,

132
00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:43.440
<v Speaker 1>blood red. And yet they're shooting down obvious Republican bills.

133
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:48.000
<v Speaker 1>How does that happen? Why does that happen? Well, here's how,

134
00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:52.600
<v Speaker 1>and Wyane happens. There are democrats in Wyoming. There are

135
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:57.600
<v Speaker 1>power hungry lizard people in Wyoming. And those lizard people

136
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:02.399
<v Speaker 1>they understand you can't run for office as a Democrat,

137
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 1>and they understand they're okay, so they'll fake being Republicans.

138
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:10.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm a Republican, God and Country. But they also understand

139
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:15.159
<v Speaker 1>they have to learn to speak the language of the Republican.

140
00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:18.279
<v Speaker 1>And so what do they do. They go, they raise

141
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:21.600
<v Speaker 1>money and then on their campaign commercials or on the

142
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.840
<v Speaker 1>little mailers they send you. If you're in Wyoming, you

143
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.440
<v Speaker 1>get a card and it's you know, Bob Western and

144
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.320
<v Speaker 1>he's talking about how much he loves guns and he's

145
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 1>going to be pro life in load taxes. Now does

146
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:38.759
<v Speaker 1>he believe any of those things? Probably not, but he understands.

147
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.759
<v Speaker 1>If you want power, if you want to go to

148
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:43.399
<v Speaker 1>the state House, you want to go to the state

149
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Center in Wyoming, you have to pretend. You have to

150
00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:51.480
<v Speaker 1>lie or you're never getting elected. Now let's go to

151
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:55.559
<v Speaker 1>the federal government. If that's a problem in a God

152
00:09:55.600 --> 00:10:00.919
<v Speaker 1>and Country, blood red state like Wyoming, how much do

153
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:03.080
<v Speaker 1>you think it's a problem in the United States House

154
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:10.080
<v Speaker 1>of Representatives. How many Republicans sitting in the House right

155
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:16.039
<v Speaker 1>now do you think truly share your values versus how

156
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:22.360
<v Speaker 1>many know they have to pretend come election season. We'll

157
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:25.440
<v Speaker 1>expand on that a little bit more here in a moment,

158
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.200
<v Speaker 1>doctor Jesse Thursday, because I won't be here tomorrow. But

159
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>don't worry. I'll be back on Monday and medal of

160
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:32.720
<v Speaker 1>honor Monday. I am gonna have to start cooking up

161
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.759
<v Speaker 1>another history show for you at some point. I haven't

162
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:36.840
<v Speaker 1>decided what I'm gonna do it on. You don't It's

163
00:10:36.879 --> 00:10:39.159
<v Speaker 1>not coming next week, so don't be getting your hopes up.

164
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.279
<v Speaker 1>We got to do some more politics and I'll get

165
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to some history tonight. Don't worry. But I wanted to

166
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:47.440
<v Speaker 1>continue what we were talking about there. Guy sends an

167
00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:50.200
<v Speaker 1>email and says, Hey, why don't we have single item

168
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>bills right now? We have Republicans in the House, we

169
00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:54.960
<v Speaker 1>have Republicans in the Senate, we have a Republican president.

170
00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:57.840
<v Speaker 1>Voter ID. That's a simple one. Get it out there.

171
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:02.840
<v Speaker 1>It's simple, it's easy. We'd have the votes. So I've

172
00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:06.759
<v Speaker 1>shared this story with you before, but I'm gonna share

173
00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:10.759
<v Speaker 1>it again. I ran for Congress twice, as you well know,

174
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:14.279
<v Speaker 1>in Arizona. I was the Republican nominee twice in Arizona

175
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 1>when onund to lose the general, but I was the

176
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Republican nominee twice. My first time, I experienced a lot

177
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:25.360
<v Speaker 1>of things that really I don't I won't say shook me,

178
00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:28.240
<v Speaker 1>but it definitely made me sit up in my chair

179
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:32.159
<v Speaker 1>and notice how things really worked in this country. When

180
00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:35.720
<v Speaker 1>you're running for Congress, if especially once you become the nominee,

181
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:39.399
<v Speaker 1>you will, if you ever do this, you will have

182
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:43.919
<v Speaker 1>to go back to Washington, D C. For money. That's

183
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:47.240
<v Speaker 1>what you're going back there for. You go back and

184
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:52.440
<v Speaker 1>you try to get campaign donations from other congressmen and

185
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:57.039
<v Speaker 1>from all all kinds of various political pacts who may

186
00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:00.360
<v Speaker 1>align with you. Now let me pause on this for

187
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:04.399
<v Speaker 1>a quick second and clarify something. Not all political packs

188
00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:08.600
<v Speaker 1>are bad. There are all kinds of wonderful ones out

189
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.879
<v Speaker 1>there that believe what you believe, and they're pushing for

190
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.600
<v Speaker 1>those things. And they'll find candidates who will who they

191
00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:20.799
<v Speaker 1>can back even in a primary sometimes, who will push

192
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:22.879
<v Speaker 1>for the things they want. I'll tell you one right now,

193
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:28.679
<v Speaker 1>Citizens United. Citizens United. Everyone knows the name because of

194
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.519
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court case. But Citizens United didn't wait until

195
00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I won the general election to send me a check.

196
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:39.720
<v Speaker 1>They wanted more hardcore people in Congress. They get involved

197
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:42.600
<v Speaker 1>in a primary, they said, no, no, we need Jesse

198
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:45.080
<v Speaker 1>to win against the establishment guy. They thy win anyway.

199
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Set him out aside, you go back to raise money.

200
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:51.440
<v Speaker 1>One night, I'm out with a couple of congressmen, they're

201
00:12:51.519 --> 00:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>just friends of mine, and I'm out and we go

202
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.279
<v Speaker 1>to dinner and there was a pack that I'm not

203
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:02.399
<v Speaker 1>going to name, and it was one of these packs

204
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:06.679
<v Speaker 1>that represents an industry you would know, and probably an

205
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:08.440
<v Speaker 1>industry you would like to be honest with you, but

206
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:13.679
<v Speaker 1>an industry you would know. Now, this industry gets a

207
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of federal money, a lot of federal money. Probably

208
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:21.679
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't a lot of it, probably not justified, but they

209
00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:25.600
<v Speaker 1>get a lot of federal money. They sat down to

210
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:28.759
<v Speaker 1>dinner with me, they were part of this group. And

211
00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:31.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm back there making my pitch. Hey, I'm Jesse Kelly,

212
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.919
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna save America and all the naive things

213
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.360
<v Speaker 1>you believe when you're young and then running for all

214
00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. I'm going to save the country by myself.

215
00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:42.440
<v Speaker 1>So I make my pitch. But they weren't really interested

216
00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:46.799
<v Speaker 1>in that. They didn't care about my position on really

217
00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:50.440
<v Speaker 1>any issue, any issue none. They didn't ask to be

218
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.440
<v Speaker 1>a specific thing. The only thing they wanted to know was, Hey,

219
00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:01.039
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna keep the money flowing, right if a bill

220
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 1>comes up and it means money for us, you're going

221
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:10.639
<v Speaker 1>to vote yes on that right. And of course I

222
00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't tell them that told him now, I was like that,

223
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:19.679
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't care. But that answer, and they made

224
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:21.600
<v Speaker 1>it obvious. It was not like it was subtle. That

225
00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:26.120
<v Speaker 1>answer was going to determine whether they use their vast

226
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:31.759
<v Speaker 1>quantity of money to back my candidacy or not. They

227
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:36.679
<v Speaker 1>chose to abstain because of the answer I gave them. Now,

228
00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>that's one example of I know, it's not shocking to

229
00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:45.080
<v Speaker 1>you of how it works. How many Republicans in the

230
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:48.720
<v Speaker 1>House of Representatives in the United States Senate, how many

231
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>of them want to keep getting re elected pretty much

232
00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:55.159
<v Speaker 1>all of them. How do you get reelected? Well, you

233
00:14:55.240 --> 00:15:01.120
<v Speaker 1>have to raise money. It's really, really, really ea to

234
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:04.399
<v Speaker 1>give in the temptation. We're all susceptible to it, aren't you.

235
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:07.879
<v Speaker 1>I know, I am, I'm a human being. You want

236
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:09.679
<v Speaker 1>to get reelected, you want to go back to the Senate,

237
00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:11.080
<v Speaker 1>you want to go back to the House for another

238
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>two years. Well, you know what doesn't get you there?

239
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Single subject bills that help the American people. You know

240
00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>what does get you reelected? A large, large campaign war

241
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:27.519
<v Speaker 1>chest where you can go to the people of Wyoming,

242
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:30.399
<v Speaker 1>the people of South Carolina, and you can run an

243
00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:33.039
<v Speaker 1>ad on TV when they're watching Fox News at night

244
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:35.519
<v Speaker 1>telling them how much you stand with Trump in the

245
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:39.159
<v Speaker 1>Second Amendment, and I love God. It takes a lot

246
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:41.440
<v Speaker 1>of money to run that ad. How do you get

247
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:44.320
<v Speaker 1>that money? You get that money by stealing from the

248
00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:49.080
<v Speaker 1>American people. And you steal from the American people. Not

249
00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:53.519
<v Speaker 1>with single subject bills that help the American people. You

250
00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:57.360
<v Speaker 1>steal from the American people by loading a bunch of

251
00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:03.200
<v Speaker 1>crap into good bills, forcing Congress to vote yes on it.

252
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.039
<v Speaker 1>The money flows to them. Your money flows to them.

253
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:10.799
<v Speaker 1>They in turn rite you a check for it, and

254
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:16.519
<v Speaker 1>everybody wins, except of course, the American people. That's how

255
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:20.000
<v Speaker 1>it works. It's ugly. I hate it, you hate it,

256
00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:23.320
<v Speaker 1>but that's how it works. Let's do a little history,

257
00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:25.559
<v Speaker 1>just a little history. Then we'll get back to we

258
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:31.240
<v Speaker 1>legals and things like that. Jesse Kelly's Show on a

266
00:16:58.360 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 1>we get back to the questions. Dome Today made a

267
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:03.679
<v Speaker 1>huge announcement.

268
00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:06.119
<v Speaker 2>Just over a year ago. I launched my campaign for

269
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:09.559
<v Speaker 2>President of the United States, one hundred and seven days

270
00:17:09.720 --> 00:17:14.839
<v Speaker 2>traveling the country fighting for our future, the shortest presidential

271
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:20.519
<v Speaker 2>campaign in modern history. It was intense, high stakes, and

272
00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:23.960
<v Speaker 2>deeply personal for me and for so many of you.

273
00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Since leaving office, I've spent a lot of time reflecting

274
00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:32.599
<v Speaker 2>on those days, talking with my team, my family, my friends,

275
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:34.720
<v Speaker 2>and pulling my thoughts together.

276
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:38.759
<v Speaker 1>And Es, No, she totally sounds a little soft, absolutely, Chris.

277
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:42.759
<v Speaker 3>Since writing a journal that is this book, one hundred

278
00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:47.640
<v Speaker 3>and seven days with candor and reflection, I've written a

279
00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:50.039
<v Speaker 3>behind the scenes account of that journey.

280
00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:53.880
<v Speaker 2>In writing this book, one truth kept coming.

281
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:54.119
<v Speaker 3>Back to me.

282
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:58.319
<v Speaker 1>Our soundboards still a little messed up. I really missed

283
00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:00.559
<v Speaker 1>my fart sound. I was going to finish the what, Chris,

284
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:03.359
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna do the I was gonna all right,

285
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.359
<v Speaker 1>So before we get back to the questions. Let's do

286
00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:12.319
<v Speaker 1>another little kind of uh behind the scenes look at politics.

287
00:18:12.319 --> 00:18:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Something I've discovered from working in politics and doing radio

288
00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:19.640
<v Speaker 1>and TV and and and then I wrote a book,

289
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:23.119
<v Speaker 1>The Anti Communist Manifesto, available at Jesse kellybook dot com.

290
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:32.880
<v Speaker 1>What Chris anyway? Uh? Politics? Politicians, they've discovered the ultimate way,

291
00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:38.519
<v Speaker 1>uh to get rich. They write a book. They write

292
00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:42.680
<v Speaker 1>a book. Nobody's interested in. How many people are going

293
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:46.640
<v Speaker 1>to buy domes one hundred and seven days book? Even

294
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>even democrats? How many people Kamala Harris his own family,

295
00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:54.359
<v Speaker 1>They don't want to read her stupid book that somebody

296
00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:58.559
<v Speaker 1>Ghoest wrote for her. No one cares about this, but

297
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:02.759
<v Speaker 1>she she'll make millions. It happens all the time. These

298
00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:08.759
<v Speaker 1>Democrats come out with these books and they make millions. Now,

299
00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:14.599
<v Speaker 1>remember when we discussed a system membership card. You know

300
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:16.480
<v Speaker 1>what the system is? We talk about it all the time.

301
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:20.000
<v Speaker 1>All the institutions supposed to be separate. Now they all

302
00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:22.680
<v Speaker 1>now that they're all conquered by communists, they work together,

303
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:24.920
<v Speaker 1>speak with one boy's one purpose. You got all that,

304
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:30.440
<v Speaker 1>And we talk about a system membership card essentially proving

305
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.720
<v Speaker 1>to be a loyal member of the Communist Party. If

306
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:38.799
<v Speaker 1>you are loyal to the system, there are generous rewards.

307
00:19:39.440 --> 00:19:43.079
<v Speaker 1>It's how so many people fall victim to it. So

308
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:47.559
<v Speaker 1>many people get sucked in by it. It pays big

309
00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:52.200
<v Speaker 1>money to be loyal to the system. We're all making

310
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:55.319
<v Speaker 1>fun of Stephen Colbert because his show got canceled. His

311
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:58.200
<v Speaker 1>show is losing forty million dollars a year. If you

312
00:19:58.359 --> 00:20:01.039
<v Speaker 1>lost your boss forty dollars dollars a year, you would

313
00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:04.240
<v Speaker 1>get fired. Stephen Colbert was making what was he making?

314
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:06.319
<v Speaker 1>Chris something like ten million? I think he was making

315
00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>ten million, if not more a year. He will retire hit.

316
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:12.400
<v Speaker 1>The rest of his life will be mansions in private

317
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:15.440
<v Speaker 1>jets for a show that lost forty million dollars a year.

318
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 1>How could that go on as long as it did?

319
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:21.720
<v Speaker 1>He was a loyal member of the system. How much

320
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Chris fifteen mil a year professional quarterback money? Well not anymore,

321
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:33.799
<v Speaker 1>but used to be professional quarterback money. That's because he

322
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:39.720
<v Speaker 1>was loyal. Now, for politicians, here's how it works. They

323
00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:42.720
<v Speaker 1>write a book no one cares about. Michelle Obama did

324
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:44.720
<v Speaker 1>this Dome did it? They all do it. They write

325
00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:46.559
<v Speaker 1>a book no one cares about no one's buying it,

326
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:49.599
<v Speaker 1>no one's reading it. So how does the money come

327
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:54.920
<v Speaker 1>flowing in? Well, the book publisher will give you an

328
00:20:55.039 --> 00:21:00.680
<v Speaker 1>advance based on anticipated sales, the size of your platform

329
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 1>in advanced Look, I got one for mine. I believe me.

330
00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:05.200
<v Speaker 1>It was not Michelle Obama's, but I got one for mine.

331
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:08.160
<v Speaker 1>You get an advance. Hey, you have this kind of

332
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:10.759
<v Speaker 1>a following, you have a radio show, you have a

333
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 1>famous this, you have whatever. This is what we think

334
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:18.079
<v Speaker 1>your book will sell. Let us write you a large

335
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 1>check and they divvy it out by you know, published date,

336
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:23.799
<v Speaker 1>the date you finished writing it to. But let us

337
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:27.920
<v Speaker 1>write you a large check for it. You cash the money,

338
00:21:28.279 --> 00:21:31.400
<v Speaker 1>publish the book, go on a little book tour. Okay,

339
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:36.720
<v Speaker 1>why would Dome get a I haven't seen it yet.

340
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:39.119
<v Speaker 1>I actually don't know the number, but I promise you

341
00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the number is north of a million dollars. Why would

342
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 1>don't We'll just call it a million. It'll be north

343
00:21:43.519 --> 00:21:46.799
<v Speaker 1>of that. Why would Dome get a million dollars from

344
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:50.640
<v Speaker 1>any book publisher? Do they want to lose money? Well, no,

345
00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:54.519
<v Speaker 1>it's not that. You know, we talk about the system

346
00:21:54.559 --> 00:22:01.279
<v Speaker 1>membership card. Well, there is a large large of cash

347
00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:05.359
<v Speaker 1>by a lot of its taxpayer money through nonprofits in

348
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:10.039
<v Speaker 1>these NGOs, some of its communist billionaires, the George Soros types,

349
00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:12.000
<v Speaker 1>and many others. He's just the name you would know.

350
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.759
<v Speaker 1>There's a huge amount of communist money flowing through our system.

351
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:22.559
<v Speaker 1>How it works is you find yourself a communist group

352
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:28.359
<v Speaker 1>who will purchase fifty thousand, one hundred thousand copies of

353
00:22:28.400 --> 00:22:31.400
<v Speaker 1>your book. Not only does that put you on the

354
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:36.039
<v Speaker 1>bestseller list, but the publisher makes back all the money

355
00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:40.440
<v Speaker 1>they just gave you foreign advance. So it's one of

356
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:45.240
<v Speaker 1>those things where everyone wins if you're a loyal member

357
00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:49.039
<v Speaker 1>of the system, if your system membership card is up

358
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:52.640
<v Speaker 1>to date. Dome writes a book one hundred and seven days.

359
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:55.960
<v Speaker 1>No one gives it crap, but it will sell a ton,

360
00:22:56.279 --> 00:22:58.400
<v Speaker 1>And when the numbers come out of how many had sold,

361
00:22:58.599 --> 00:23:01.000
<v Speaker 1>you'll look at the numbers in your say are you

362
00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:05.480
<v Speaker 1>kidding me? Fifty thousand people bought this crappy book. No

363
00:23:05.519 --> 00:23:10.279
<v Speaker 1>one wants to read that. Fifty thousand books are sitting

364
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:15.680
<v Speaker 1>in a cardboard box at Communist Inc. The NGO who

365
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 1>purchased fifty thousand copies, probably in a roundabout way with

366
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:25.720
<v Speaker 1>taxpayer funds maybe with George Soros money. The publisher got

367
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:28.920
<v Speaker 1>their money back, Dome got paid, she got money in

368
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:35.519
<v Speaker 1>the bank, and everyone wins. And this is how all

369
00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:43.000
<v Speaker 1>communist systems have always operated. Communist systems operate by rewarding

370
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:48.400
<v Speaker 1>people who were loyal to the system. It's always worked

371
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:55.359
<v Speaker 1>that way and always will. In East Germany, the Soviet Union, China, Cambodia, whatever,

372
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.960
<v Speaker 1>everyone wasn't starving. Oh yeah, millions and millions of people

373
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:04.759
<v Speaker 1>were tortured and killed and starved, but not loyal members

374
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:08.400
<v Speaker 1>to the party. If you were loyal to the party,

375
00:24:08.920 --> 00:24:11.079
<v Speaker 1>You've got a great car, you got a great job,

376
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:14.240
<v Speaker 1>you got benefits you need, healthcare, will fly you somewhere,

377
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:18.480
<v Speaker 1>no big stake night tonight sounds good, boys? Oh what's that?

378
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:21.839
<v Speaker 1>Another ten million peasants died last month. They should have

379
00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:27.160
<v Speaker 1>gotten their loyalty card. That's how it's always worked, and

380
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:31.680
<v Speaker 1>that's how it works. With the Communist book network. It

381
00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:35.960
<v Speaker 1>does not work that way. On the right the right.

382
00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:39.519
<v Speaker 1>You have to sell books. This is the bottom line.

383
00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:42.880
<v Speaker 1>You have to sell books. There really aren't, at least

384
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:45.119
<v Speaker 1>not that I'm aware of. I'm sure maybe there's one

385
00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:49.400
<v Speaker 1>or two out there. There's not a big organization that

386
00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:52.480
<v Speaker 1>will come swoop in and buy up, you know, ten

387
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.480
<v Speaker 1>thousand copies, one hundred thousand copies of your book and

388
00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:57.960
<v Speaker 1>make you a bunch of cheddar that doesn't really exist.

389
00:24:58.079 --> 00:25:00.200
<v Speaker 1>On the right, we don't have that kind of patren

390
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Inch network, but the communists in this country. Do you

391
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:08.000
<v Speaker 1>want to know how Bernie Sanders has three homes? How

392
00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden's going to make a bunch of money? Dome,

393
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Michelle Obama. That's how it works. You have a ghost writer,

394
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:18.759
<v Speaker 1>you pay him fifty grand, he writes your book for you.

395
00:25:20.200 --> 00:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Pretty clean, pretty easy. You're done. Your rich publisher made money.

396
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:28.960
<v Speaker 1>You made money. Some billionaires out what one hundred grand?

397
00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 1>He didn't even know it existed. He's got one hundred

398
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:34.319
<v Speaker 1>grand in his sofa, and everyone wins. Sorry, I went

399
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:36.680
<v Speaker 1>off on a political tangent. Now we'll go back and

400
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:40.400
<v Speaker 1>do some more. Asked doctor Jesse, questions is what is

401
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:45.240
<v Speaker 1>a historical thing that kind of disillusioned me? Great email,

402
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.039
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about that in a moment. Before we talk

403
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 1>about that, we did get an emails asking me to

404
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:58.039
<v Speaker 1>do a history episode on the guys behind enemy lines

405
00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:02.559
<v Speaker 1>in Vietnam. Those are the MACV sog guys, Chris, do

406
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:04.920
<v Speaker 1>you have that date the date we did that. I'll

407
00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:06.559
<v Speaker 1>get it for you when we come back. No, it's fine,

408
00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:08.079
<v Speaker 1>I'll get it for you when we come back. I

409
00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:10.440
<v Speaker 1>did one of those already. I'm not going to do

410
00:26:10.480 --> 00:26:14.759
<v Speaker 1>another one. It's known as mac v song. Those were

411
00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:22.680
<v Speaker 1>the guys who loos Cambodia behind enemy lines, and honestly,

412
00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:29.079
<v Speaker 1>most of them died. Jesse Kelly Show on a Fantastic Thursday.

413
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:31.559
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I got too dark. I was talking

414
00:26:31.559 --> 00:26:34.359
<v Speaker 1>about ugly political things. I don't like it. I'm I'm

415
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:36.160
<v Speaker 1>in a great mood. I don't like it. Let's do

416
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 1>let's do some other stuff. Hey, Jesse, I'm a big

417
00:26:39.759 --> 00:26:42.599
<v Speaker 1>history guy like you. I really appreciate the book references

418
00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you give out sometimes, though I'm disappointed when I learned

419
00:26:46.440 --> 00:26:50.079
<v Speaker 1>about the reality of stuff. I read a book called

420
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Black Flags, Blue Waters on the Golden Age of piracy,

421
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:58.039
<v Speaker 1>and it turns out being a pirate kind of sucked.

422
00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:02.359
<v Speaker 1>It didn't last very long, and you probably died. What's

423
00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:07.960
<v Speaker 1>the most disillusioning historical thing you've learned? Because let's focus

424
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.799
<v Speaker 1>on the pirate thing for a moment, there is something

425
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:17.559
<v Speaker 1>known as the Golden Age of Piracy. Maybe you've heard

426
00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:20.559
<v Speaker 1>of this before, the Golden Age of piracy. You just

427
00:27:20.640 --> 00:27:25.759
<v Speaker 1>mentioned it in the email. It's it's like a year.

428
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:30.359
<v Speaker 1>I know. Look, hey, I watched Pirates of the Caribbean too.

429
00:27:30.799 --> 00:27:35.599
<v Speaker 1>I have kids too. Surely, surely they're having a good time.

430
00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:41.119
<v Speaker 1>They're drinking some room, they're singing and dancing some funny lines.

431
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:47.440
<v Speaker 1>It didn't last very long. It didn't last very long

432
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:52.319
<v Speaker 1>at all. It didn't last very long because the pirates

433
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:58.079
<v Speaker 1>in the Golden Age of piracy, they were stealing from

434
00:27:58.240 --> 00:28:04.720
<v Speaker 1>large powerful empires with large powerful navies, and large powerful

435
00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:09.240
<v Speaker 1>empires with armies and navies do not allow you to

436
00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:12.160
<v Speaker 1>take their goods. They will kill you if you do so.

437
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Then now and always. The friggin Romans did this actually,

438
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Pompy Magnus. I brought up Pompy Magnus last night. One

439
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.680
<v Speaker 1>of his big claims to fame was there were a

440
00:28:23.720 --> 00:28:26.359
<v Speaker 1>bunch of pirates that popped up in a Mediterranean and

441
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.799
<v Speaker 1>they were pillaging some Roman stuff. Ooh yeah, they all died.

442
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Pompy Magnus just marched down there and murdered every single

443
00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:37.160
<v Speaker 1>one of them. It didn't last very long. And as

444
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:40.920
<v Speaker 1>far as it how bad it sucked. I'm gonna expand

445
00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:46.079
<v Speaker 1>this beyond piracy. I'm a dude, and because I'm a dude,

446
00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:50.640
<v Speaker 1>I am fascinated with sailing, old sailing ships. Not modern

447
00:28:50.680 --> 00:28:52.400
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that that doesn't interest me at all, but

448
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.640
<v Speaker 1>old sailing ships. Christopher Columbus, Sir Francis Drake, you name it,

449
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I am fascinated by it. Warships, exploration in Magellan, all

450
00:29:01.480 --> 00:29:04.799
<v Speaker 1>of it. I'm fascinated by it. That's just I don't know.

451
00:29:04.839 --> 00:29:07.200
<v Speaker 1>There's something about the adventure of it, the danger of it.

452
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:10.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm fascinated by it. Keep in mind, that was a

453
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:14.880
<v Speaker 1>life of living hell that many of those guys many

454
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:16.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that I would say majority, because I

455
00:29:16.839 --> 00:29:21.119
<v Speaker 1>don't have numbers on that. They were outlaws, They were

456
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:25.920
<v Speaker 1>out casts. They were people who didn't have other options.

457
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Not only was there horrible danger, mainly from the weather,

458
00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:37.440
<v Speaker 1>the food was beyond putrid. Remember this is pre refrigeration.

459
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:43.599
<v Speaker 1>The water had to be in buckets. Imagine a hot

460
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:47.480
<v Speaker 1>bucket of water in the bottom of a ship being

461
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:53.279
<v Speaker 1>your only source of fresh water. The bathroom situation, the

462
00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:59.039
<v Speaker 1>discipline on the ships had to be unbelievably rigid because

463
00:29:59.240 --> 00:30:01.240
<v Speaker 1>of the type of people We're not even just talking

464
00:30:01.240 --> 00:30:04.519
<v Speaker 1>about pirate ships because of the type of people who

465
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:07.480
<v Speaker 1>would have to work on the ships. You fill up

466
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a ship with a bunch of convicts or guys kind

467
00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:11.960
<v Speaker 1>of from the rough side of the tracks. And I'm

468
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:13.880
<v Speaker 1>not insulting you if you're from the rough side of

469
00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:17.839
<v Speaker 1>the tracks, but you're going to have to do terrible

470
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:21.440
<v Speaker 1>things to keep people in mind. You're gonna have to

471
00:30:21.480 --> 00:30:27.079
<v Speaker 1>put fear in them. It would be awful to have

472
00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:33.039
<v Speaker 1>been on an old sailing ship, absolutely awful. And then

473
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:35.960
<v Speaker 1>when you get wherever you're going, it's not as if

474
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:39.160
<v Speaker 1>there's a shower waiting for you in a comfy bed

475
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:42.039
<v Speaker 1>and a dime who wants you to tell her about

476
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:45.960
<v Speaker 1>all of her adventures. You show up in some miserable

477
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:52.359
<v Speaker 1>dump and there are hostile natives, hostile weather. If you're

478
00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:56.079
<v Speaker 1>in a town of some kind, it's not very pleasant

479
00:30:56.119 --> 00:30:59.880
<v Speaker 1>there either. And so much of the exploration that when

480
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:04.440
<v Speaker 1>this is something you don't think about, it was in

481
00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:11.759
<v Speaker 1>hot places, miserable places. Look, it sounds great to be

482
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:15.759
<v Speaker 1>on a pirate ship exploring the Caribbean. Yeah, I'd love

483
00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:18.119
<v Speaker 1>to be exploring the Caribbean right now, just like you

484
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:21.519
<v Speaker 1>would in a ship that has air conditioning. You know

485
00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:24.839
<v Speaker 1>what's not pleasant. One hundred and five degrees with one

486
00:31:24.880 --> 00:31:29.440
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent humidity and no air conditioning whatsoever and nothing

487
00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:33.559
<v Speaker 1>to escape it. I told you before I went to

488
00:31:33.640 --> 00:31:36.880
<v Speaker 1>ab and I did a Haunted Jail tour in Charleston,

489
00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:41.759
<v Speaker 1>South Carolina. Totally cool. It was so cool. You know,

490
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:43.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm always trying to see a ghost, and I didn't

491
00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:46.160
<v Speaker 1>see one there either. But the jail tour, the history

492
00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:48.240
<v Speaker 1>of it was amazing. Was in a really rough part

493
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:51.400
<v Speaker 1>of town. But either way, Haunted Jail Tour was sick

494
00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:54.200
<v Speaker 1>and one of the worst parts of the jail they

495
00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:58.599
<v Speaker 1>talked about it all the time, was a freaking heat. Charleston,

496
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:02.519
<v Speaker 1>South Carolina's one of my favorite cities in the country. Now.

497
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:07.359
<v Speaker 1>It was not very pleasant pre air conditioning. Neither was

498
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:10.599
<v Speaker 1>the jail where they'd stuff you in a cell with

499
00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 1>no breeze whatsoever and you just sit there and rot

500
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:20.119
<v Speaker 1>and sweat every single day. Being a pirate would have

501
00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:25.240
<v Speaker 1>been horrible. It was a life you only lived if

502
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:30.480
<v Speaker 1>you had no other options. I'm sorry you were disillusioned

503
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:34.799
<v Speaker 1>by it, but I have one as well. Actually, I

504
00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:39.000
<v Speaker 1>have a few of these things. Sometimes when you start

505
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:43.519
<v Speaker 1>reading history books or even watching documentaries or things like that.

506
00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes oftentimes it's kind of cooler than you thought it

507
00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:51.839
<v Speaker 1>was going to be. I'll be honest, The Kamikazes were

508
00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:56.160
<v Speaker 1>deeper than I thought they were going to be. Weren't you? Chris?

509
00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:58.799
<v Speaker 1>Am I wrong? On? Even Chris agrees it wasn't what

510
00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:02.640
<v Speaker 1>I expected. I just expected a bunch of fanatical demons

511
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:05.680
<v Speaker 1>flying their planes into ships. That's just what I expected.

512
00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:10.079
<v Speaker 1>It was deeper than I thought. Sometimes history surprises you

513
00:33:10.119 --> 00:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>in a good way. Other times it doesn't. We'll talk

514
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:16.920
<v Speaker 1>about that. Thanks,
