It's joined stem 12 00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:43.079 cell talks dot com. 13 00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:47.000 The Todd Herman Show is one percent disapproved by big 14 00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:54.759 pharma technocrats and tyrn s everywhere from the high mountains 15 00:00:54.799 --> 00:01:02.200 of Free America. Here's the Emerald City EXI God to 16 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:02.840 her Man. 17 00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:11.840 Today is the day the Lord has made in these 18 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.560 of the times to which God has decided we shall live. 19 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:18.359 And I have a theory. It's a tough one. 20 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:22.560 I've watched this series of latest murders by a very 21 00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.200 gender confused human being, and I'm not saying that's why 22 00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:28.959 he did this. But I do believe, and so does 23 00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:34.439 the Diagnostic Statistical Manual, that being convinced that you are 24 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.879 the opposite sex is a psychoses and that means it's 25 00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:42.319 a break with reality. And I'm wondering about God's purpose 26 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.879 for allowing all this, And I'm wondering if God's purpose 27 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:48.480 is to see are we strong enough to trust Jesus. 28 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:52.040 I got admit when I watched the outcome of this, 29 00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:53.719 my first response was not. 30 00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:57.319 Lord, you know what you're doing. It was doubt. It 31 00:01:57.359 --> 00:01:59.159 was anger, and why wouldn't it be. 32 00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.719 I want to go through some comparisons to responses as 33 00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:05.400 we build up into this discussion about how Jesus response 34 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.759 to this, but we can start with two words. Jesus wept. 35 00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.879 It was not supposed to be this way. It was 36 00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:14.599 not God's choice for us to live with death and 37 00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:16.840 to live with violence. That was our decision, when we 38 00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:19.919 decided as a species to turn our back on God 39 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:21.680 and say we have a better plan. You warned us 40 00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:23.240 about the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil, 41 00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.719 but we wanted it. So let's compare some responses. This 42 00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:30.120 is a young kid, a fifth grader, who praised God 43 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:32.680 made it out of the attack, and he has his 44 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.039 point of view, which I considered to be far more 45 00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.360 mature than what we heard from politicians. This kid had 46 00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.080 been praying when this attack happens, and listen as he 47 00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:43.319 interacts with the media. 48 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:47.080 Yeah, I think he's going to be okay. And then 49 00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:50.120 my friend, he was like laying on top of me, 50 00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.599 like making sure I was safe and he got hit. 51 00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:56.240 So that was really brave of him. 52 00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:58.479 And on your neck. 53 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:01.520 Yeah, that was I don't even know what it is from. 54 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.520 Kind of looks like debri ors something. 55 00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.960 That came from doing this. Yeah, what are you feeling? 56 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:10.599 You see who you put together in here? Whether that's 57 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:11.639 got to be a tough. 58 00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:13.319 Yeah, I'm just like confused. 59 00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:17.000 He's probably in shock, the poor little boy and communicating 60 00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:19.000 so clearly. No greater love has man than to lay 61 00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:23.000 down his life for his brother. Someone did that? Now, 62 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.560 Praise God. That little boy is not dying, it appears 63 00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:29.680 according to him. So are we willing to trust Jesus 64 00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:32.240 in situations like this? That little boy laid his body 65 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:35.199 down on top of another little boy to save him. 66 00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:40.840 No greater love has man, we see it. Are we 67 00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:43.360 brave enough to tout Jesus? To know that the kids 68 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:47.879 who died praying to him went straight to him. Are 69 00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:51.120 we brave enough for that? Are we brave enough to 70 00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:54.039 remember that at the Trum of Lazarus. There's a whole 71 00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:56.039 bunch of debates as to why Jesus wept, but we 72 00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:59.199 know he wept in the face of death, the stench 73 00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:02.639 of it. But I also happen to believe that the 74 00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.360 subtext of this is he told people who he was, 75 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:10.199 and people said, Lord Lord, if you'd been here, my 76 00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:12.919 brother would have not died. And Jesus, I wonder if 77 00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:17.040 he was weeping that. You still don't get it. I 78 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:22.160 control death completely. It has no it is nothing I 79 00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.839 can't stop. It has a meaning to you, It does 80 00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:28.360 not to me. The little ones who died, I believe, 81 00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:30.360 went straight into the arms of the Lord Jesus, and 82 00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:35.279 he was overjoyed to see them. Because this is what 83 00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:39.879 we're told in the Bible. So let's compare this to 84 00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.560 the mayor of Minneapolis who decides to do something you 85 00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:48.279 can't do. I trust God when he says he will 86 00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:50.160 not be mocked. The Bible tells us God will not 87 00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:55.160 be mocked. The mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Fray, apparently doesn't 88 00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:55.600 believe that. 89 00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:57.920 And don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers 90 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.439 right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the 91 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:06.680 first week of school, they were in a church. These 92 00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:11.720 are kids that should be learning with their friends. They 93 00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:15.639 should be playing on the playground. They should be able 94 00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:19.360 to go to school or church in peace without the 95 00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:22.040 fear or risk of violence, and their parents should have 96 00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:23.360 the same kind of assurance. 97 00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:29.279 This is the same guy who came out to mock 98 00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:31.240 thoughts and prayers. This is the same guy who came 99 00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:34.639 out and said his priority was in fact, protecting the 100 00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:38.600 so called transcommunity from hate. So are we brave enough 101 00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.399 to touch Jesus in these circumstances because we were told 102 00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.160 there would come a time where most people's hearts would 103 00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:48.040 grow cold, where people would teach, would seek teachers who 104 00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:52.560 would tickle their itching ears tell them falsehoods. And people 105 00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.199 are being told falsehoods like kids are being told you 106 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:58.480 were born in the wrong body. It's falsehood, and it's 107 00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:01.560 being promoted and propagated, and it's harmful when kids break 108 00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:04.120 from reality. But we're also told this, if thoughts and 109 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.560 prayers don't matter, that would mean that there's no spiritual 110 00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:12.240 overtones to this. The entire thing has spiritual overtones to it. 111 00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:16.759 A young man confused about his gender and this is 112 00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:19.399 promoted and it's good and it's healthy, and you're brave 113 00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:21.839 and you're stunning, and change your name, and here's a 114 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.399 legal document. Now you're legally a woman. And if the 115 00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:26.040 rest of the world doesn't get it, it's because the 116 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.360 rest of the world is their haters. 117 00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:30.040 That's why they don't get it. 118 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:32.759 And if you doubt there is an overtone too this, 119 00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:35.319 let me tell you about one of his drawings, because 120 00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:38.279 one of the drawings washes as clear of any delusions 121 00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:41.399 on this, or at least it should. I know that 122 00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:43.800 you want to wash your body clear of things you 123 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:47.160 get dirt during the day, sweat, et cetera. I don't 124 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.000 mean to be super super blunt, but I just do 125 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:51.639 mean to be very very clear. The companies you're buying 126 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.399 soap from probably don't care about your values. For instance, 127 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:58.399 you probably believe all lives matter. At alansoaps dot Com, 128 00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.439 Sash Todd, we believe that, and we employ people that 129 00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.319 the rest of the world would have seen unalived in 130 00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:07.519 the womb. And I'm not saying maybe this is what 131 00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:11.720 doctors wanted to do to Alan and his brother Ian. Well, 132 00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:14.800 his parents said no, and so their kids can have 133 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:16.800 a place to work and other young people like them. 134 00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:19.439 They invented Alan Soaps and turned to a family that 135 00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:22.720 makes soap as a love affair. They've done it for 136 00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:26.160 three generations. Hence the soap is all natural. It's made 137 00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:28.279 in America. I think it's in Pennsylvania. I know it's 138 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.800 in the Midwest. Has no chemicals in it, and it's 139 00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:32.720 as gentle as it can be in your skin. And 140 00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:36.279 it promotes work for the kids and other young people 141 00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:38.199 who are told you're worthless to society. 142 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:39.439 They're not. We love them. 143 00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.199 It's Alan Soaps dot com slash todd. Get ten percent 144 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.360 off all the products there. That's Alansoaps dot com slash Todd. 145 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:48.879 If you're watching this, it's a difficult image to wash 146 00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:52.279 out of your mind. This comes from the notebook of 147 00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:56.120 the shooter, the murder who used a gun. I say 148 00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.920 that because shooter implies it's just the gun that did it. 149 00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:01.600 It's an image of him with the gun on his back, 150 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:04.000 looking into a mirror and looking back at him as 151 00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:04.439 a demon. 152 00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:07.519 And if you do not. 153 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:10.120 Believe in the spiritual overtones of this, then think again 154 00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:15.600 about the target, the most innocent beings. You can find 155 00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:19.639 little kids in the most innocent moment praying. It is 156 00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:22.040 an attempt to mock God. 157 00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:26.079 And I've seen it. I've seen members of the left 158 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:27.160 come out and. 159 00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:31.360 Say, hey, if prayer works, Hakkama didn't protect the kids 160 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:36.080 who were praying. Because God did not design us to 161 00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:37.080 be in a broken world. 162 00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.159 We chose the broken world. And when you remove prayer 163 00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:43.440 from society as a whole, you. 164 00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.639 Remove a connection to God. Now you can say, look, 165 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:48.240 I believe in God. I just don't spend a lot 166 00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:50.320 of time praying. I believe in God. I just don't 167 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:52.440 go to church. I believe in God, I just don't 168 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:57.600 read the Bible. Then you don't know God. And Jesus 169 00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:00.799 tells us even people who believe in him, even people 170 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:02.919 who've done miracles, like you could say, look, I feed 171 00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:06.720 the poor. I've got a nonprofit I feed the poor. 172 00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.480 Certainly I'm going to heaven. And Jesus has told us, no, wait, 173 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:15.000 I don't know you. I can't confess you with my mouth. 174 00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:19.879 You haven't confessed me with yours. I trust Jesus when 175 00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:22.000 he tells us that there's going to be times like this. 176 00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:25.440 I trust God when he says, when you install human 177 00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.240 kings instead of me, you're gonna end up with kings 178 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.039 who seek to enrich themselves. And this is one of 179 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:33.919 the things that's been going on with promoting this psychosis, 180 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:38.240 this mental illness, this tragedy of kids being confused about 181 00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:41.480 their gender. It's a money making enterprise. It's a power 182 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:45.000 seeking enterprise for politicians on the left, money making for 183 00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:49.320 people in pharma and for medical devices, and for Madison 184 00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:52.000 Avenue who can now sell specific lines of clothing to 185 00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:57.200 little kids like they sell these packers for babies, so baby, 186 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.679 little girls below the age four. 187 00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:01.600 Can pretend to be boys. 188 00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.559 Are we brave enough to touch Jesus When Jesus said, 189 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.360 when God explained that he has made us in his image, 190 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:16.320 that he counted every hair in her head, that he 191 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:21.120 has specific plans for us, are we willing to trust 192 00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:21.879 the sacrifice? 193 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:22.080 Now? 194 00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.200 See this goes straight to this, this unaliving of these kids. 195 00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:26.600 It's a brutal act. 196 00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.759 Jesus knows what that feels like. The Lord of the 197 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:35.759 universe knows what that feels like. He knows what it 198 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.960 feels like to be unlived in brutal fashion. God the 199 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.159 Father knows what it's like to watch his own son. 200 00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:48.159 They're relatable. A single God and multiple in three personalities 201 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.360 knows what it is to be in pain this way. 202 00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:55.200 Can we trust that Jesus had a purpose and perhaps 203 00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:57.519 the purpose is for more people to understand the spiritual 204 00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:02.600 connection to this and let's go back and compare again responses. 205 00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:06.000 There are prayer vigils going on. Some of the kids 206 00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:08.879 who survived this went back into a prayer vigil. There 207 00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:11.440 are people talking about SSRIs. Hey was this kid on 208 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:14.200 too many SSRIs? There are people talking about what is 209 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.519 the connection between having a break with reality? As the 210 00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:21.320 DMS five refers to genderdics for you, it's a psychosis. 211 00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:25.039 So with this break from reality, should we look into this? 212 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:27.600 Maybe this is a symptom. Maybe this should be treated 213 00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:29.559 as a call for help. On the other hand, you 214 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:32.679 have again Jacob Fray going back at what he thinks 215 00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:33.399 needs to be done. 216 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:35.919 I have heard about a whole lot of hate that's 217 00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:43.679 being directed at our trans community. Anybody who is using 218 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:48.480 this as an using this as an opportunity to villainize 219 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.399 our trans community or any other community out there has 220 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:57.320 lost their sense of common humanity. We should not be 221 00:11:57.480 --> 00:12:01.519 operating out of a place of hate for anyone. We 222 00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:06.039 should be operating from a place of love for our kids. 223 00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:11.240 Kids died today. This needs to be about them. 224 00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:15.840 This needs to be wrapping our arms around these families 225 00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.000 with every bit of love that we can possibly show them. 226 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:22.279 Let's do that to the families whose other kids are 227 00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:25.279 confused about their gender. Does it strike you as a 228 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:28.519 call for help, Let's have love for the kids who 229 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:32.000 went through this by not standing by and ignoring one 230 00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:36.679 of the symptoms of this. When you speak of good 231 00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:41.200 and evil, you're speaking of sides. And when you think 232 00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:43.720 about what Jesus spoke about in terms of the devil, 233 00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:45.639 who is he? He's a liar, thief, and a murder 234 00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:48.600 from the beginning. How does he behave angel of light? 235 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:54.120 He masquades as an angel of light. The masquerading lie 236 00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:56.480 here is that affirmation only is the way to go. 237 00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.840 But try this in any other sense. If you had 238 00:12:59.879 --> 00:13:02.519 a kid who came to you and said, you know what, 239 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:08.679 I am adopted, and you had proof, you had the 240 00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:10.919 video of the child being born, and the child said, no, 241 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.120 that's not me. I refuse to believe it's now affirm me. 242 00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:15.480 Would you? Could you? 243 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:18.879 By the same logic, you should because we have pictures 244 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:22.320 of them as boys and girls, and the question is 245 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:23.440 can we trust Jesus? 246 00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:26.639 Is there a reason for this? Yes? 247 00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:29.200 How do I know this? Because I know the being 248 00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:33.000 who allowed it to happen. And maybe the reason is this. 249 00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:36.840 Some people somewhere have woken up and had their final 250 00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:41.519 dose of reality and have said it's just too broken. 251 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:47.399 This can't be explained humanly. This can't be explained in 252 00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:51.360 a scientific sense. There's something deeply spiritual going on. I 253 00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:53.720 say that because every single week at our church in 254 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:57.200 North Idaho, we get exiled families from the separate countries 255 00:13:57.240 --> 00:13:59.720 like California and Washington coming in and saying the same thing. 256 00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:02.399 I trust that Jesus has a plan. 257 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:07.159 Story number two, The Cracker Barrel shareholder lawsuit should start 258 00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:11.879 with the CEO's bank statements. You know, because I did 259 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:13.919 the todtter Herman Show radio shows for all those years 260 00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.639 and still continue to do it. Obviously taught Herman Show 261 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:20.039 radio shows. I lived in a world where we talked 262 00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:23.200 about living the brand. This is something we used to 263 00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:25.559 say in music radio and I worked in music radio 264 00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:27.240 for a very brief period of time. But if you're 265 00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:29.639 going to be successful in music radio, it's important that 266 00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:32.399 you live the brand. So if you have an ACR station, 267 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:34.519 you need to be able to communicate with the ACR 268 00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:37.360 audience by hanging out with them. And if you're running 269 00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:39.000 a country music station, you need to be able to 270 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.320 learn to hang out with country music fans and get 271 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:44.039 to know them. Living the lifestyle means you're being genuine, 272 00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:46.919 particularly if you're an on air personality. Now if you're 273 00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:49.159 in sales or management, maybe that's a little bit different, 274 00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:50.960 unless you're a program director, and then you need to 275 00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:53.240 be able to speak with them in ways that they 276 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:56.559 will understand. So much about what happened at Cracker Barrel 277 00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:59.679 indicates to me that this is no longer understood or 278 00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:02.399 even cared for, which is why I say, in the 279 00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:05.279 upcoming lawsuit, the shareholder lawsuit, and there's got to be one, 280 00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:09.720 they should start with the CEO's bank records because of 281 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:10.720 the glasses she wore. 282 00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:13.759 Literally, the glasses. 283 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:17.440 She wore mapped up to an in depth insider analysis 284 00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:20.399 into her moves to quote refine the brand of Cracker Barrel. 285 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.840 So let's explain this in just a second. I actually 286 00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:25.159 had a chance to talk with my friend Zach Abraham 287 00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:28.440 about this. Zach is the chief investment officer Bulwart Capital 288 00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:30.279 Management that Know Your riskradio dot com. 289 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:31.720 He sits on some boards. 290 00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:34.360 He thinks the board of Cracker Burrel should be fired 291 00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:36.960 for what they've done. And he agrees with me that 292 00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:39.799 the lifestyle thing is very, very important. Your lifestyle is 293 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:42.600 important to you. What's going on in our country is 294 00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:45.919 the battle for the existence of the American economy as 295 00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:49.960 a dominant force or as a subservient force. You are 296 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:53.679 on a precipice, and if you're about to retire, if 297 00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:56.440 you're five to ten, even fifteen years from retirement, you 298 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:59.399 would really be a silly goose. That's a technical phrase, 299 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:01.720 a silly goose. If you didn't take Zach up on 300 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:04.559 his free opportunity to have a no obligation series of 301 00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:06.960 meetings where he will give you a second opinion on 302 00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:10.759 your retirement plan, you will end these three meetings understanding 303 00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:13.559 what Zach thinks you are at where you're at in 304 00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:16.200 terms of getting to retirement. Are you exposed to too 305 00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.519 much risk? Are you being actively managed? Because active management 306 00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:22.279 portfolios can reduce risk and volatility. So go find out. 307 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:25.320 Go to Know Your Risk podcast dot com.

The upcoming lawsuit should start with the 313 00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:43.759 glasses and then the bank account. Here's why I say 314 00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:47.240 that it was a fascinating dynamic to see Twitter users 315 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:51.159 see the glasses of the CEO of Cracker Barrel, Julie 316 00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:53.960 Fel's messino, and based upon that say the brand is 317 00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:57.600 in trouble. Those glasses are a uniform for many many people. 318 00:16:57.600 --> 00:16:59.759 They're the uniform of wanting to be on MSNBC as 319 00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.480 a co commentator. They're the uniform of smart glasses. Is 320 00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:06.440 a leftist thinker. Leftism in brands like Cracker Barrew cannot 321 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:10.079 coexist because the brand Cracker Barrel was built around a 322 00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:14.000 nineteen twenties nostalgic memory of the United States of America. 323 00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:18.119 Leftism does not like the United States of America, particularly 324 00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:20.200 not back in the nineteen twenties or in the founding era. 325 00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:23.480 They want to envision the future unburdened by the past. 326 00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:27.319 In Cammy Harris Gibberish, so people saw the glasses and 327 00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:29.960 they said this will and poorly. There's the fourteen percent 328 00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:33.359 stock dip. The glasses were the indicator. I'm saying, her 329 00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:36.519 personal bank account is what the lawsuit should really dig into, 330 00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:39.359 and it's not even the big money she makes as 331 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.119 Cracker Burrew. I want to see her last five year 332 00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:45.160 bank records, debit cards and credit cards. I want her 333 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:47.799 entire spending pattern for the last five years because I 334 00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:51.119 have a theory. There's an investor. His name is sar 335 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.359 Dar Big Laurie, and this comes from Fox Business News. 336 00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:57.559 Arson Nomani wrote a great article that this guy is 337 00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:01.160 a major investor in Crackerburrow so happens to own Steak 338 00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:04.440 and Shake. He warned the board, this is going to 339 00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:09.160 be catastrophic. He responded to Julie Fellow's memo she was 340 00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:13.319 viewing a transformation planned strategic transformation to quote refine the brand. 341 00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:16.680 He came out and said, no, the brand's fine. What 342 00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:19.319 we need is a churnaround. We've got a broken board, 343 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:21.599 not a broken company. Cracker Barrel's not broken. 344 00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:22.119 The board is. 345 00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.880 He warned the company about a coming catastrophe. He actually 346 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:31.359 created one hundred and twenty page PowerPoint slide deck with 347 00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:35.759 the presentation titled Cracker Barrel is in crisis in red. 348 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:41.319 This was on October twenty fourth, twenty twenty four. For 349 00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.279 an investor to spend his time creating something like this 350 00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:47.039 and then to be ignored is extraordinary. This is why 351 00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:50.519 I think the lawsuit will happen. The CEO and the 352 00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:55.000 board rejected Sedar Big Glory's criticism, and he published another 353 00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:59.480 slide deck warning again about the catastrophe that was to come. 354 00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:02.640 And now we know the catastrophe came. The stock has dumped. 355 00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:05.279 People have woken up to the fact that this is 356 00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:07.880 a woke company and it's going to continue to harm 357 00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:10.240 them unless they fire the board of the CEO and 358 00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:13.839 apologize for losing their way. So why her bank accounts. 359 00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:19.000 I've been to Cracker Barrel maybe three times. It's okay food, 360 00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:22.000 it's not my thing. I like the entire interior. I 361 00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:24.559 think it's funky. I like the sense of nostalgia that 362 00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:27.480 I like. It's just not my bag for food or 363 00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:31.640 is it hers I'm gonna bet. I don't know this 364 00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:33.079 to be the case, and I don't want to wish 365 00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:35.880 for bearing false witness. I'm not gonna say it's true, 366 00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:37.839 but I'm willing to bet. If you went back to 367 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:41.000 her last five year bank records and spending records, do 368 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:42.839 you think she was a big fan of Cracker Barrel? 369 00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:47.519 Do you think she likes comfort foods? If you're looking 370 00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:49.599 to her spending patterns, do you think you'd see anything 371 00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:53.279 that supports a nostalgia for historic America? Or do you 372 00:19:53.279 --> 00:19:58.400 think you'd find the opposite, Someone who disdains the historical America, 373 00:19:58.559 --> 00:20:02.039 who disdains the founding, who can't wait to drag Cracker 374 00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:06.200 Barrel into modern society, where they also shun all things 375 00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:10.960 not invented before twenty twenty. Story number three selling God's 376 00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:17.920 masterpieces at bulk discounts. I am not against in vitro fertilization. 377 00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:22.759 I am against selling God's creations at bulk discounts. I 378 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:26.079 have friends of mine who had to turn to in 379 00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.839 vitro fertilization because they were unable to conceive children without it, 380 00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:32.599 And they're the exact short of people we want to 381 00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:35.400 be parents, and they gave thoughts to doing this the 382 00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:39.519 old fashioned way, because parental surrogacy is as old as 383 00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:42.599 the Bible, and in many cases in the Bible, people 384 00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:44.839 carried this out through their own wishes and it turned 385 00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:47.440 out to be Yeah, they got kids, but they also 386 00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:51.119 got themselves disasters. This is not the new way of thinking. 387 00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:53.480 It's just done at new scale and with new people, 388 00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:57.680 and done with far less care for the kids who 389 00:20:57.759 --> 00:21:01.240 result in this. In the Bible, read about Abram before 390 00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:04.759 he became Abraham, being promised to have multiple multiple kids, 391 00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:08.960 and his wife Sarah, who was very ild, didn't think 392 00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:11.400 this was going to happen. They got frustrated God's plan 393 00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:13.960 was not working. He had his timing wrong. 394 00:21:14.039 --> 00:21:14.759 God was late. 395 00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:17.079 God is never late, and his timing is never wrong. 396 00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:19.640 But that's how they felt. So Sarah took it under 397 00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:21.599 herself to allow. 398 00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:24.440 Abram to lay with her handmaid, her. 399 00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:31.880 Servant, and they conceived the child, and the united the 400 00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:36.799 united nature of the people at that time split. This 401 00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:40.839
