1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,879 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Three Stories version of The Todd Herman Show. 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:08,119 A failed leftist magazine says Elon Musk is deeply stupid. 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:13,759 Let's check their work together. Jesus, the Lord Jesus is 4 00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:17,239 at work in the Helene aftermath. And the NBA loves 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:22,239 countries where you can execute same sex attracted people. How 6 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,760 could that be? Look at this all with the help 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,480 of our YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash at the 8 00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:31,120 Todd Herman Show and through the magnificent grace of the 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,119 Lord Jesus himself. Thank you, Lord, The Todd. 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,719 Speaker 2: Herman Show is one disapproved by big pharma, technocarrats and 11 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:49,640 tyrants everywhere from the high mountains of Free America. Here's 12 00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:54,880 the Emerald City exile Todd Herman. 13 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: Today is to day the Lord has made, and these 14 00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:10,239 are the times to which God has decided we shall live. 15 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:16,159 It takes quite a brain to look at Elon Musk 16 00:01:16,239 --> 00:01:22,079 and say evil, and this magazine does this. This is 17 00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:25,280 the New Republic. That Elon is evil. That takes quite 18 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:31,920 a brain. He's a guy who has done nothing to 19 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:37,159 most people. I mean, his cars contain precious metals that 20 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:42,879 sometimes involve child labor, child labors. Evil Elon Musk should 21 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,079 work to eliminate that, and a lot of his products 22 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,719 are made in China, and China, the Chinese Communist Party 23 00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:53,319 is evil. The Chinese people aren't, but the Chinese Commonist 24 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,120 Party is. And then if he's evil, then so is 25 00:01:56,439 --> 00:01:59,000 everything that you're wearing on your Body's probably made in China. 26 00:02:00,359 --> 00:02:07,040 You're wearing evil sneakers and evil underwear. And every business 27 00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:09,719 that does anything in China is then evil, and any 28 00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:14,520 business that uses precious metals is also equally evil. Now 29 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,280 Elon Musk has become evil in the minds of people, 30 00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:20,520 of course, because Elon Musk has no longer decided to 31 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,080 serve the powers in DC by being as censorious as 32 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,240 they had been. Twitter is still sensors and Twitter X 33 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,639 still sensors. And look, I admit that I have a 34 00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:34,960 thing against Twitter because they stole one hundred and twenty 35 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,199 thousand followers from me and I become radical, radically radically 36 00:02:39,439 --> 00:02:43,000 shadow bands. I am so shadow band. So yeah, that 37 00:02:43,039 --> 00:02:47,240 bothers me because it affects our ability to spread God's 38 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,039 word through that platform, and it affects my income. Frankly, 39 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,639 so yeah, I have a little bit of Umbridge. I 40 00:02:54,759 --> 00:02:57,599 take so I could look at Elon Musk and say 41 00:02:57,599 --> 00:02:59,360 he's evil. He did that to me. He doesn't know me, 42 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,719 he doesn't know about my situation. It's another thing to 43 00:03:04,759 --> 00:03:10,919 look at him and go, dang, you're stupid. You are 44 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,599 what are the stupidest billionaires in the world. You are 45 00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:17,360 the stupidest guy worth fifty billion I've ever seen. You're 46 00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:21,080 so dumb. It's just And you can say, well, what 47 00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:24,800 to show that he's dumb? Well, he's just stupid. So 48 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,199 we're gonna check this guy's work and we'll start with 49 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,800 the writer's resume, or let me say it this way, 50 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,280 his curriculum vatale. I'll give you his CV straight from LinkedIn, 51 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,080 and you can decide. First of all, is this a 52 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,159 guy we trust to determine if Elon Musk is deeply 53 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,199 stupid in addition to being evil, and that I have 54 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,560 to put on our strong thinking caps for that one. 55 00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:56,000 On Thursday, my friend Zach Abraham did his last free 56 00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:59,000 live webinar of the year, and he's the chief investment 57 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,960 officer Bulwerk Capital Management. Some of the questions were fascinating 58 00:04:02,639 --> 00:04:05,159 having to do with the Trump economy. Here's some things 59 00:04:05,199 --> 00:04:07,560 that President Trump has said, on the great side, on 60 00:04:07,639 --> 00:04:11,879 the make America great side, freeing up the pipeline projects 61 00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:14,319 in America, particularly some of the key ones that have 62 00:04:14,319 --> 00:04:17,360 been blocked down. That will initially and immediately get us 63 00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:21,519 back into being a net exporter of fuels, stopping the 64 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,800 ridiculous attempt to stop natural gas in the country. Perhaps 65 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,720 being the president who gets micro nuclear plants installed a 66 00:04:29,759 --> 00:04:32,920 run America. If that happens, it would be the biggest, 67 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,040 most fundamental positive shift in our economy in hundreds of years. 68 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,680 He's the guy that could get this done. If you're 69 00:04:40,759 --> 00:04:43,000 a buy and hold situation during the eighty to twenty 70 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,279 stock bond mix, how do you take advantage of that? 71 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,959 I mean, if you're buy and hold, you might see 72 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,319 an increase in the stock market from that. But what 73 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,079 if you could pick specific companies and take action on them. 74 00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:57,160 Hundreds of companies at a time are thousands. This is 75 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,000 much more like Bulwark Capital Management's approach, which is predicated 76 00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:04,040 upon risk management, paying attention to world events and hedges 77 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,040 upon hedges. Last week, Jack provided this example. There's a 78 00:05:09,079 --> 00:05:12,199 company that's in the gold business and Zach was raised 79 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,959 around gold mines, and their stock, he said, was operating 80 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,480 somewhere around some really small amount like thirty cents, and 81 00:05:20,519 --> 00:05:22,959 it's just up and notice. But the fundamentals of the 82 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,759 company are fantastic. The cashful is fantastic. The CEO is 83 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:32,519 buying their stock. If you took the assets they own, Okay, 84 00:05:32,639 --> 00:05:35,600 this is their land, this is their minds, this is 85 00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:38,560 the equipment. This is the gold that's been or silver 86 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,079 I think it is. It's actually silver gold silver that's 87 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,800 confirmed to be in the ground. It would come out 88 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:49,040 at about a twenty three dollars share price. This thing 89 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,879 is trading at thirty cents. Now, Zach made clear. Look, 90 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,439 there's some debt, there's some structured and unstructured debt on 91 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,279 the books, but twenty three dollars for a thirty cent purchase. 92 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:05,079 That's what hedging is about. That's risk management. Eventually math 93 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,160 will catch up other investors will realize, oh my goodness, 94 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,040 that sort of return. You could go take a look 95 00:06:12,079 --> 00:06:15,040 at your portfolio with Zach, sit on a conference call. 96 00:06:15,079 --> 00:06:16,839 He'll look at your retirement plan. He'll look at the 97 00:06:16,879 --> 00:06:20,439 money that you have cash assets in Otherwise land, you 98 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,879 and your spouse can talk with him about retirement, what 99 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,879 you think it is and what the math says. It 100 00:06:25,959 --> 00:06:28,560 can help you see if your portfolio is being actively managed. 101 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,879 She'll be able to tell you that an active management 102 00:06:30,879 --> 00:06:33,680 and portfolio can reduce risk and volatility.

He's got five hundred connections, 122 00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:24,800 six hundred and sixty eight followers. So I'll go through 123 00:07:24,839 --> 00:07:29,519 his employment history here. He was a staff writer at 124 00:07:29,519 --> 00:07:34,040 the New Republic. That's for the past nine years and 125 00:07:34,079 --> 00:07:40,560 three months. And hold on, I'm looking at his wait 126 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,279 so then, oh, hold on. So then he was in 127 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,160 Oberlin College two thousand and five through two thousand and nine, 128 00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:51,920 and then there was a six year gap where nothing 129 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:58,360 happened on his crikam vattal. Then he became a New 130 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,639 Republic staff writer, and he's remained a staff writer for 131 00:08:02,759 --> 00:08:10,560 a decade plus three months at the New Republic. Huh, 132 00:08:11,399 --> 00:08:13,639 I don't know that that. I mean, I'm not saying 133 00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:17,240 that writers are stupid people. Generally they're not, but I 134 00:08:17,439 --> 00:08:20,439 don't Maybe that's not I don't know that that makes 135 00:08:20,439 --> 00:08:22,120 you the guy who gets to call Elon Musk a 136 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,519 stupid idiot. Maybe let's just read his work and maybe 137 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,399 he sees something we don't see. In one sense, Elon 138 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,759 Musk has got exactly what he wanted. For all his 139 00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:35,679 talk about free speech, his primary motivation for sinking forty 140 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,600 four billion dollars into buying Twitter last year was clearly 141 00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:44,720 an unquenchable desire to be the center of intention. How wait, 142 00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:50,759 does he back this up? He'd wait, So that's an assertion. 143 00:08:50,919 --> 00:08:53,840 But does he provide evidence for that? It would be 144 00:08:53,879 --> 00:08:55,720 deeply stupid to make a statement like that and not 145 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,759 provide evidence. But I don't see any evidence. Maybe it's 146 00:08:57,799 --> 00:09:01,879 later in the piece. Twitter now named X for reasons 147 00:09:01,879 --> 00:09:04,519 only Musk really understands, is now teetering on the brink 148 00:09:04,519 --> 00:09:07,840 of collapse in worth less than half of the world's 149 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:10,639 second richest man what he paid for. It is funny, 150 00:09:10,759 --> 00:09:17,480 It elicits deserved schadenfreude, that is, to take joy at 151 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,080 the misery of others. Musk entered Twitter's of office carrying 152 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,360 a sink a terrible joke in one of the better ones. 153 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,440 Who says it's terrible and who says it's on the 154 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,960 brink of collapse. Let's see what they say whether you're 155 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,120 going to goot or routers us AD revenues at Musk's 156 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,080 X declined each month since takeover data. Okay, but what 157 00:09:39,159 --> 00:09:43,679 about the membership revenue? What about the fact that Elon 158 00:09:43,759 --> 00:09:46,159 Musk has people paying for social media, and he's the 159 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,840 only one who has that. What about the fact that 160 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,240 Elon Musk has already told us why X because he 161 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,159 wants to have a payment system X. He wants Twitter 162 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,720 to be able to be a payment system. What about 163 00:09:55,759 --> 00:09:59,320 the fact that Twitter is now producing videos that are 164 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,879 seen one hundred or thousand or ten thousand times more 165 00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:06,720 than NBC News. What about that the ad revenue decline 166 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,159 was an organized attack against Twitter by people who are 167 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,639 in fact evil, who hate free speech. And this is 168 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,759 a writer who is against a guy who has made 169 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,559 Twitter much more of a free speech place. If you're 170 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,720 a writer and you're against free speech, I have news 171 00:10:19,759 --> 00:10:21,679 for you. That Oberlin College thing that you had that 172 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,879 didn't do you a lot of good because you didn't 173 00:10:23,919 --> 00:10:28,440 realize that writers are one of the few few professions 174 00:10:28,519 --> 00:10:32,000 actually protected by the First Amendment. First Amendment applies to everybody, 175 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,080 not just writers, but it protects you from people being 176 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,000 able to say, hey, you can't write that. Alex Shephard, 177 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,919 I mean, maybe he gets later on into this, Maybe 178 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,759 there's some reasons that he discloses. Muscus insisted again that 179 00:10:47,799 --> 00:10:49,519 he bought Twitter to save it from itself. And the 180 00:10:49,519 --> 00:10:52,320 platform has become too restrictive, and that to become a 181 00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:55,240 true digital tron square where the best ideas rise to 182 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,039 the top, it needed to welcome everyone. It's now abundantly 183 00:10:58,039 --> 00:11:00,399 clear that musk real intention is and always has been, 184 00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:02,639 to put his thumb on the scale to elevate his 185 00:11:02,639 --> 00:11:06,080 own hateful views about no particular order, liberals, the media, diversity, 186 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,639 equity inclusion programs, so called trans people, and liberal jews. 187 00:11:11,039 --> 00:11:14,000 Is there evidence for this? I'm going to keep scanning 188 00:11:14,039 --> 00:11:17,879 looking for evidence. There's an interview where Elon said things. 189 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,159 Is their evidence? Ex is hanging on by a thread. 190 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,120 After waves of layoffs, there's seemingly no one left minding 191 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,480 the store. Where's the evidence for this? You can have 192 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,399 declining revenue when you decline the number of people who 193 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,759 work there because they're not providing a return you need. 194 00:11:36,039 --> 00:11:38,600 That's exactly what Elon must did. So when revenues go 195 00:11:38,759 --> 00:11:43,200 down and you don't have as many people, guess what 196 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,559 you can bring profits up? And Elon doesn't have to 197 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,240 tell us that because it's his company, But he's evil. 198 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,759 What if I could provide evidence to the contrary, like 199 00:11:54,960 --> 00:12:00,399 just with a video, just one. We can't we played 200 00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:02,399 this earlier in the week that applies here. This is 201 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,480 a North Carolina State Highway patrolman. He is thankful to 202 00:12:06,519 --> 00:12:09,879 Elon Musk for something Elon was prevented, and he's got 203 00:12:09,879 --> 00:12:12,159 the video to prove it. He's got his staff reports 204 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,000 to prove it from Starlink staff saying they're not letting 205 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,919 us deploy Starlink, so people gonna have comms. He argued 206 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,759 with Alejandro majorcis the impeached in the House but not 207 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,320 convicted in the Senate, corrupt boss man of the Department 208 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,679 of Homeland Security, who is in fact stupid and evil, 209 00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:33,600 And we've done enough shows on that. I don't feel 210 00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:36,480 I need to prove that here. But let's watch this 211 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,919 officer thanking a certain company so that he can keep 212 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,159 in touch with his convoy. Here. 213 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 2: It is. 214 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to do, get. 215 00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: The Starlink India out, just because I want to make 216 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,480 a point that they're literally the only reason that we 217 00:12:51,519 --> 00:12:54,919 can connect with our convoy is because we go to 218 00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:56,360 Starlink's it's gonna wadom. 219 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: And they're just driving through ruin copcar after copcraft or 220 00:13:05,159 --> 00:13:08,159 cop car wouldn't be able to communicate with one another 221 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:13,200 without Elon Musk. So from this guy's curriculum vatal or 222 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,360 whether it's resume or lack thereof, to his own writing, 223 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,840 a man who took time to say that the richest 224 00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:22,600 man in the world, perhaps one of the richest men 225 00:13:22,639 --> 00:13:26,279 in the world, is vitally stupid. That falls apart the 226 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:31,519 evil part completely subjective. But then again, this guy has 227 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,440 nothing to say about the evil of quashing free speech. 228 00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:38,320 One of the key changes Musk made when he took 229 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,519 over Twitter was to open the hood up to show 230 00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:47,080 that the government is and was demanding censorship from social 231 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,759 media companies. If you're a writer and you don't understand 232 00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:55,240 that censorship never stops, it's a hunger that can never 233 00:13:55,279 --> 00:13:58,919 be satiated to control what other people say. I would 234 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:03,480 ask Alex Shepherd to be introspective for a moment. Are 235 00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:06,679 you in the right profession? Maybe you should seek work 236 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:14,279 as a censor. Story number two. There's a weird thing 237 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:21,000 that God does. He sometimes can't get to us any 238 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:26,919 other way, so he lets us experience pain. And I 239 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:33,120 have a testimony to this a witness. There is no 240 00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:37,240 reason on earth I should have lived the life that 241 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,519 God's allowed me to live. None of it makes any sense. 242 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,080 I never a clown like me never should have gotten 243 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,080 in the door to have an interview at Microsoft, but 244 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,159 I did, And a clown like me never should have 245 00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:59,039 been hired there, but it was. I never should have 246 00:14:59,039 --> 00:15:02,240 gotten three gold Star awards in a row, but I did. 247 00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:06,639 Things I wrote never should have been read by Bill Gates, 248 00:15:06,639 --> 00:15:12,279 but they were a product. I pushed them to make 249 00:15:12,919 --> 00:15:15,679 the strategy document. I created the business plan that I 250 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,519 wrote with smarter people than me doing the math. Thank you, Greg, 251 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,759 Thank you for doing the math. Thank you team who 252 00:15:27,759 --> 00:15:35,559 built it, Curtis and others, Randy. That never should have 253 00:15:35,559 --> 00:15:38,840 been launched on stage by Bill Gates and Jay Leno, 254 00:15:38,879 --> 00:15:43,759 but it was. I never should have been a guy 255 00:15:43,879 --> 00:15:46,679 who was a partner in creating a big data company 256 00:15:46,679 --> 00:15:48,759 that we sold to the world's largest PR firm. That 257 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,799 never should have happened, but it did. There never should 258 00:15:53,799 --> 00:15:56,600 have been a time where I was blessed with earning 259 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,559 over a million dollars a year, but I did. And 260 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:07,879 at no time that I fall to my face and say, 261 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,919 Dear God, why did you give me this? Why are 262 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:20,639 you doing this? Why are you bringing these blessings? I mean, 263 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:27,080 gave some money to the church. That was cool. Had 264 00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:29,639 enough money to effectively pay to put a new roof 265 00:16:29,679 --> 00:16:35,840 on our church. That was cool. But man, I told 266 00:16:35,879 --> 00:16:40,080 my daughter driving by the church, Hey, you know, did 267 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:45,879 you know that we built that roof? Yep, we were 268 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,679 able to give money to build the roof on the church. 269 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,440 I didn't say to her that, you know that God 270 00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:55,879 has so blessed us that we had an opportunity to 271 00:16:55,879 --> 00:16:58,600 give him his money back in such a degree that 272 00:16:58,639 --> 00:17:00,279 we could put a new roof on the church. Didn't 273 00:17:00,279 --> 00:17:05,839 say it that way. Blessings, blessings, blessings. And I don't 274 00:17:05,839 --> 00:17:07,920 know about you. I don't give gifts, so people tell 275 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,240 me thank you. I like it when they use the 276 00:17:11,279 --> 00:17:14,759 gifts they give them. I like it when they show 277 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,359 that they appreciate the gift because they use it, or 278 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,279 they might from time to time say, hey, you know 279 00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:24,119 that thing you got me, I still use that. I 280 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,799 really like it. Someone said that to me the other day, 281 00:17:27,799 --> 00:17:31,759 and it was really meaningful to me. But when you 282 00:17:31,799 --> 00:17:34,079 give someone a gift and then they use it really poorly, 283 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:44,079 that kind of hurts. You know, you buy someone I 284 00:17:44,079 --> 00:17:45,720 don't know. I'm thinking of a friend of mine, his 285 00:17:45,839 --> 00:17:48,680 dad was a big wig at Amway and his dad 286 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,720 bottom I think seven brand new trans ams back in 287 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:57,480 the day when transams were big. He crashed six of them. 288 00:17:57,519 --> 00:18:05,680 Six and I crashed God's economy. I didn't build the 289 00:18:05,759 --> 00:18:11,880 kingdom with it. I didn't go and become someone who's 290 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,200 simply able to live on the beach as it was. 291 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:21,480 I didn't go dive in the ministry. And so God 292 00:18:21,519 --> 00:18:26,720 said this, Hey, you know what, why don't I just 293 00:18:26,799 --> 00:18:28,079 let you live in the first of this for a 294 00:18:28,079 --> 00:18:35,240 little while. You seem to really enjoy being laying around, 295 00:18:35,759 --> 00:18:39,200 not building the kingdom, taking time off. He sold this company. 296 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,319 Look at you wasted my money and buying a Mercedes 297 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:49,680 SUV Jaguar. Okay, cool, let's try it this way. I'll 298 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:56,519 step back. Money will keep flowing, but I'll step back. 299 00:18:58,759 --> 00:19:07,519 And he did, and life fell apart, and most disturbingly, 300 00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:14,000 it affected my daughter badly. I don't take blame for 301 00:19:14,039 --> 00:19:19,240 what was done to her. I take blame for having 302 00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:24,359 a family separated from God. My fault. And after a 303 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:30,440 long period of holding my head underwater, me drowning myself 304 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,440 and got up there saying, hey, I'm right here, when 305 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,119 you're done drowning just lift your head up and look 306 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:42,720 at me. And I finally lift up my head and 307 00:19:42,759 --> 00:19:46,160 I finally look at him, and I fall to my 308 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,119 face in prayer, and I beg him to take over. 309 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:57,160 I beg him, and guys, I was snot crying ugly crying, 310 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:02,400 stop running down my beak. I am insufficient. I have failed. 311 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:08,799 I need you to take over. And he did, and 312 00:20:08,839 --> 00:20:11,119 he took some things apart. You're done doing local radio. 313 00:20:14,279 --> 00:20:18,480 That was scary. You're gonna step into worlds you don't 314 00:20:18,559 --> 00:20:23,039 understand podcasting. But man, I'm gonna give you back sevenfold 315 00:20:23,079 --> 00:20:29,079 what you give up. He did that in the aftermath 316 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:35,160 of the storm. This is Aileen. There's been a ton 317 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:40,559 of people who've been through a magnified version of what 318 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:45,240 I went through, magnified in degree of pain and danger 319 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,720 and loss. I know that their loss is a billion 320 00:20:48,759 --> 00:20:52,119 times greater than what I went through. But God's at 321 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:57,880 work in our country as people are being denied access, 322 00:20:58,519 --> 00:21:03,880 it's a healthcare that can act prevent surgeries. The price 323 00:21:04,039 --> 00:21:09,519 for surgeries continue to skyrocket, whereas the outcomes continue to sink. 324 00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:12,440 Some of this has to do with time spent with patients. 325 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,640 Some of this has to do with what insurance companies 326 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,240 will pay for and what they want. A lot of 327 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,519 this has to do with the turnstile approach to medicine, 328 00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:21,039 not healthcare in this country. So if you've been told 329 00:21:21,079 --> 00:21:23,559 you need to have surgery, be it lower back surgery, 330 00:21:23,799 --> 00:21:27,599 hip surgery, knee surgery, shoulder surgery, can I stop and 331 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,759 ask you are you sure you want to do that? 332 00:21:31,039 --> 00:21:32,200 And you could say want to? 333 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 2: No? 334 00:21:32,799 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: What if you don't have to? There are people who 335 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,680 have gone down to renew Dot Healthcare in Mexico because 336 00:21:39,799 --> 00:21:44,079 upon looking at their MRIs, doctor Chavez usually is doctor Shavez, 337 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:48,279 He's a Harvard trained surgeon who works at Renew in Mexico, 338 00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:50,839 has looked at their MRI and come back and said, 339 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,319 you don't need surgery. In likelihood, we can help you 340 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,359 regrow the tissue instead of getting cut open. This could 341 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,400 be cartilage, it could be muscle, it can be tended, 342 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,480 and in my case, they couldn't help me. Doctor Schabez 343 00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:05,799 initially thought we could make this happen. Then this team 344 00:22:05,839 --> 00:22:08,039 looked at the MRIs and said, now there's not enough. 345 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,400 There's not enough exhifting muscle tissue at ten and we 346 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,039 can't help bum me out but they did help me 347 00:22:13,079 --> 00:22:17,759 with this my recovery from surgery with my right shoulder 348 00:22:17,799 --> 00:22:20,319 where I got the ethically gathered stem cells from umbilical 349 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,720 cords and placentas nothing to do with abortion. This strain 350 00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:26,319 of cells I use have never been ever exposed to 351 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,160 the emor and injections. Not only did it help me 352 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,359 recover my push ups and pull ups in twelve weeks 353 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:36,160 versus forty eight. I can tell you this, two years later, 354 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,799 my right shoulder with the stem cells is still stronger 355 00:22:40,839 --> 00:22:47,079 than my left. That is two years past surgery. It's 356 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,400 two years past it compared to my right shoulder. This 357 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,759 is the fresher wound, and yet my left shoulders weaker. 358 00:22:54,759 --> 00:22:58,039 Are you sure you want that surgery? Get in touch 359 00:22:58,039 --> 00:23:00,160 with renewed dot Healthcare and see if they can help you. 360 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,759 It's super easy. The website is renewed r E n 361 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,960 U E dot Healthcare. It's r E n U E 362 00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:11,880 dot Healthcare. There are a ton of people who've had 363 00:23:12,039 --> 00:23:17,279 loss far greater than I suffered in the aftermath of Helene, 364 00:23:17,319 --> 00:23:19,200 and now it's going on in Florida. There'll be more. 365 00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:25,200 Sometimes God takes moments like this and people look up 366 00:23:25,279 --> 00:23:29,759 and say I need. I don't know about you, but 367 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,200 my dad died. 368 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,039 Speaker 2: Year No. 369 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: Twenty two years ago. I still remember his phone number, 370 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,400 and from time to time I still get this thing 371 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,279 where I got to call dad, and I got to 372 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,680 call Dad. Then I remember that, oh yeah, Dad's gone. 373 00:23:47,799 --> 00:23:50,359 So in the midst of all this, there are people 374 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:55,200 who have gathered to give their lives to Jesus Christ. 375 00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:02,319 This happens in Rutherford County in western North Carolina. Let's 376 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:25,880 watch this, jee come, come jee, people giving themselves to 377 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:31,720 God after everything's been taken. Atheist would call it an 378 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:38,599 act of desperation. It's just desperately seeking help. I would say, 379 00:24:38,599 --> 00:24:44,680 it's this. There's something that people say just before the 380 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,759 plane crashes. Did you know this? No, this is a 381 00:24:48,799 --> 00:24:53,559 true thing. It actually happens with pilots. People call out 382 00:24:53,599 --> 00:24:58,839 to God, dear God or Mom. 383 00:24:59,599 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 2: Do you know. 384 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: Many pilots say mother, Mom. We know this because of 385 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:12,839 the black box recordings. We have deeply within us a 386 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,680 need for parent. God is the ultimate parent, and when 387 00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:25,200 things are ultimately gone, we have that need. God sometimes 388 00:25:25,559 --> 00:25:28,960 is the storm. I'm not saying God did this to you, 389 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,839 but I'm saying sometimes He is the storm because it's 390 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,880 what a population needs. It's so difficult to look at 391 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:42,079 this as God's way. When people die, they've died in 392 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,000 a certain way. Sometimes it's been taken from us and 393 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,359 it's dramatic, and it's hard because it's a surprise. Everybody 394 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,720 will die. You're going to die as well. You will 395 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:57,759 maybe today. So instead of waiting for that time or 396 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,000 God says, you know what, I'm not able to read 397 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,680 you with blessings. You don't want my blessings. You don't 398 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,240 want a relationship with me. I'm trying to create a 399 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,519 relationship with you to show you. But I'm showing you 400 00:26:08,519 --> 00:26:11,599 all these things I'm giving you. I want this relationship. 401 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:17,079 I'm blessing you. What if you stop and you take 402 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:22,279 a inventory of the blessings you have today, right now, 403 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,920 and you get on your knees and you thank God 404 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,720 for those blessings. I'm not saying that will stop the pain. 405 00:26:30,839 --> 00:26:32,839 God told us we will have troubles in this world, 406 00:26:33,599 --> 00:26:37,519 but it's also the right thing to do. After all, 407 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,720 we thank people for gifts, shouldn't we thank God even 408 00:26:42,839 --> 00:26:48,079 if it's just for the common blessings? We try it. 409 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:53,720 Story number three the NBA, I don't watch professional basketball. 410 00:26:53,759 --> 00:26:56,240 First of all, I gotta admit I don't get this 411 00:26:56,279 --> 00:26:59,920 sport of basketball that much. I can watch the athletic 412 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,039 like dunking contests. Are you are you kidding me? You're 413 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,200 three feet from the foul line and you're gonna catch 414 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,720 air and you're gonna slam. Are you can fly? I mean, look, 415 00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:14,200 I can go groove on watching videos like that all 416 00:27:14,279 --> 00:27:19,079 day long. That human beings can do that, I can 417 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,559 enjoy that. Or someone who can hit those threes, these 418 00:27:22,599 --> 00:27:27,400 step back threes. That's nuts, man, that level of accuracy. 419 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,759 And I hadn't played basketball in twenty years and we 420 00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:33,279 were in my gym and spill Canna, they've got basketball courts, 421 00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:34,400 and so one of my friends said, hey, let's go 422 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,480 throw a hoops. I was a wrestler, man, I never 423 00:27:36,519 --> 00:27:40,039 played basketball. I couldn't get to the hoop. I mean, 424 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:45,480 I'm airballing below the stupid rim. And it was truly, 425 00:27:45,519 --> 00:27:47,640 truly pathetic, and thank gosh, no one was there to 426 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,359 watch it except my friend who made fun of me. 427 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,000 Or the way these guys can dribble, these women can dribble. Yes, 428 00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:56,839 I can observe the athleticism. I just I look at 429 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,920 the points and one hundred and fourteen to one hundred 430 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,680 and twelve do we play defense? A friend of mine 431 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,119 who was a professional basketball player for about nine years, 432 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,000 and one of the things he bemoans about the game 433 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:10,240 now is they make it difficult to play defense because 434 00:28:10,279 --> 00:28:11,920 of all the fouls. This is what Steve says, and 435 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,079 he played professional basketball, saying it's more better than I do. 436 00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:17,799 But there's another reason I don't watch the NBA because 437 00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:24,039 they hate me. The NBA hates conservatives. The NBA has 438 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,559 given in to the DEI pressure to hate America. Do 439 00:28:27,599 --> 00:28:30,400 you remember when the NBA decided to cancel its r 440 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,359 Star game from Charlotte because of the so called transgender 441 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,160 bathroom law, which was simply this, men don't get to 442 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,480 go watch women in the bathroom. They don't get to 443 00:28:40,519 --> 00:28:42,200 go in their locker rooms. They don't get to go 444 00:28:42,279 --> 00:28:44,359 into the bathroom and pee with them. Men don't get 445 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:49,640 to do that. That's all it ever, was funny thing 446 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:57,960 happening all of a sudden. The NBA loves themselves discrimination 447 00:28:58,079 --> 00:29:04,319 against women, and they themselves countries where you can be 448 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:10,920 murdered for being same sex attracted. Now so called transgenderism 449 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,680 and same sex attraction is not the same thing. People 450 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,480 who propagate the live transgenderism would like you to believe 451 00:29:16,519 --> 00:29:20,200 it's the same thing. Here's a key difference. If you're 452 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:24,079 same sex attracted and you say, hey, I'm same sex attracted, 453 00:29:24,119 --> 00:29:27,000 how do you know because I'm attracted to the same sex. Okay, 454 00:29:28,599 --> 00:29:30,200 well i'm so called transgender. 455 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:30,599 Speaker 2: How do you know? 456 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:37,359 Speaker 1: Because I know? But your body says otherwise, The evidence 457 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,440 says otherwise, The chromosomes say otherwise. Yeah, but I know. 458 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,200 It's like me saying, wait, I'm awesome at basketball. Well, dude, 459 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,519 you can't hit the hoop. You can't even hit the 460 00:29:47,839 --> 00:29:50,559 you can't hit the rim, you can't hit the backboard. 461 00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:53,759 I identify as good at it. But the evidence you 462 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:58,400 can't make a basket. Yeah, but I feel like I'm good. 463 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,799 So what's different here? Then all of a sudden, the 464 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,519 NBA wants to go to a place where a man 465 00:30:06,599 --> 00:30:10,519 wearing a dress could be executed. Gosh, if only we 466 00:30:10,599 --> 00:30:15,119 can figure it out, we'll do this together. I just 467 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,720 got word and this just came in this morning. Jen 468 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,920 at Radio America sent me a note. She does the 469 00:30:22,039 --> 00:30:25,039 sales for our weekend syndicated show, and a good portion 470 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:29,359 of the podcast stuff by Optimizers. He's been with us 471 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,079 for three years. They have re upped, and I want 472 00:30:33,119 --> 00:30:37,000 to thank Matt Wade for their continued trust in this show. 473 00:30:37,799 --> 00:30:40,400 And if you are someone who supports the show, the 474 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,880 show is meaningful to you. And God works through me 475 00:30:44,039 --> 00:30:47,519 and gets around my tomfoolery. As Biden would say, I 476 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,319 fit's full of tomfoolery. If the Lord is able to 477 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,319 work through my roadblocks and my idiocy and touch you, 478 00:30:56,839 --> 00:31:00,279 then just joined me in just a prayer praise for 479 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,400 God for this renewal and thanks to Matt Wade.

No, this can't 511 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:41,000 be right. Didn't the NBA drop the games from North Carolina? 512 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,799 Didn't they do that? They talked about it, the nb owners, 513 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,079 NBA discussed pulling it, The owners discussed polling. In fact, 514 00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:51,519 we've got a video of the NBA owners discussing moving 515 00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:54,319 the All Star Game out of North Carolina over the 516 00:32:54,359 --> 00:32:55,839 so called bathroom bill. Let's watch this. 517 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 4: There are new questions morning for the NBA as the 518 00:32:58,319 --> 00:33:00,880 league's owners meet to consider moving next year's All Star 519 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,920 Game from Charlotte, North Carolina calls for a boycott after 520 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,960 the state passed a controversial law that critics argue discriminates 521 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,880 against gay, lesbian, and transgender people. If you see ZeVA 522 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,079 Pilgrim reports from NBA headquarters here in New York. Good morning, Eva, 523 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:15,559 Good morning George. 524 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:16,599 Speaker 1: More fallout. 525 00:33:16,839 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 3: Four states in DC have now issued travel bands because 526 00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:21,119 of this law. 527 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,319 Speaker 1: And this morning, the NBA's Board of Governors meeting. 528 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 3: Here on its agender whether or not to move the 529 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,359 game because of this law. 530 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,799 Speaker 1: Huh wait, so they discussed it, but did they do it. 531 00:33:35,519 --> 00:33:38,440 Let's go back in history through the magic history machine, 532 00:33:39,359 --> 00:33:42,680 and it turns out that they did decide to move 533 00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:46,559 the game, citing this so called LGB so called tea law. 534 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,559 We'll watch this now. NBA has now taking a bold 535 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,799 stance on equality, deciding to move next year's All Star 536 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,480 Game out of Charlotte. This comes after the North Carolina 537 00:33:55,599 --> 00:34:00,680 legislature passed a controversial bathroom bill, which limits and discrimination 538 00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:04,519 protections for lesbian's, gay and transgender people. It didn't and 539 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,359 I love this game in the media play it's a 540 00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:13,480 controversial bill. Who says we do? But the coverage of this. 541 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,360 The NBA played one of the opening games in Abu Dubai, 542 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,199 where if you are a same sex attracted person, it 543 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:31,360 is legal to murder you for feelings or for carrying 544 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,960 out those feelings. It is legal to murder people for 545 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:43,719 sexual confusion, one might put it. NBA is investing in this. 546 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,639 See here's the deal. NBA doesn't care about you. They 547 00:34:49,639 --> 00:34:53,840 don't care about bathrooms. They don't care about people who 548 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,159 are supposedly transgender. No one is because no one is 549 00:34:57,199 --> 00:34:59,000 born in the wrong body, because you are your body. 550 00:35:00,519 --> 00:35:04,000 They don't care about Aba Dubai. They don't care that 551 00:35:04,159 --> 00:35:07,400 women are discriminated against their They don't care that same 552 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,480 sex attracted people are murdered by their own government. They 553 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,800 don't care. The NBA cares about one thing, and that's profit. 554 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,280 And if you're conservative like I am, we've been conned. 555 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,519 Well let me say it this way. If you're a 556 00:35:23,599 --> 00:35:26,599 conservative Christian or a Christian conservative, better way to say it. 557 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,440 We've been conned. The job of a company is not 558 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,599 just to earn profits, because companies are what they're collections 559 00:35:35,639 --> 00:35:41,559 of people. God did not say, follow me, abide with me, 560 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:46,119 accept it work. See that doesn't appear in the Bible anywhere. 561 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,039 Be my disciple. By this, people will know you follow me, 562 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,880 that you love one another, accept it work. Do not 563 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,320 load your power over others, except if you run a 564 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,440 big company. Use honest weights and measures. Except if you're 565 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,840 in a big company. God didn't say that the NBA 566 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,159 is a sin problem walking on billions of dollars of 567 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,920 revenue on a sport where people fly through the air 568 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,079 with talent God gave them, and they've steward it. If 569 00:36:20,119 --> 00:36:23,360 only the NBA was willing to steward morality based upon 570 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,039 the word of God. But they can't do that because 571 00:36:25,079 --> 00:36:30,119 it's risky because God's word bothers people. I don't know why. 572 00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:37,000 Because he is truth. He doesn't speak truth, only he does. 573 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:43,480 He is truth, and truth flat freaks some people out. God, 574 00:36:43,599 --> 00:36:47,119 thank you for being Truth and light. Be between being 575 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,719 the light, the true light, and the life, all the 576 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,039 things you are and can't avoid being. Thank you for 577 00:36:54,159 --> 00:36:56,440 sharing that with us. This is the Todd Hermann Show. 578 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,800 Please go, be well, be strong, be kind, and please 579 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,320 make every effort to walk in the true lite of Christ.
