41 00:02:37.830 --> 00:02:43.180 spoke for, And Marsha, Marsha, Marsha in Tennessee, they won. 42 00:02:43.659 --> 00:02:46.780 They won, so that was great. Florida did great. I'm 43 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:54.069 shocked about Texas, though. So what I was thinking I 44 00:02:54.229 --> 00:02:58.659 would have done is I would have done extensive research 45 00:02:59.939 --> 00:03:01.319 about how to. 46 00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:05.900 Combat the young vote. I don't even know what they 47 00:03:05.939 --> 00:03:06.599 call them right now. 48 00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.169 They're not... They're not millennials. I don't know. 49 00:03:10.430 --> 00:03:11.629 Maybe they're, I don't, I don't know. 50 00:03:11.669 --> 00:03:12.009 Sorry. 51 00:03:12.050 --> 00:03:13.650 The alphabet generations. 52 00:03:13.710 --> 00:03:16.669 Yeah. So I'm not really sure. And see, that shows 53 00:03:16.729 --> 00:03:19.949 my ignorance of that demographic. But one thing I do 54 00:03:20.009 --> 00:03:25.860 know about, about a kind of a personality trait of 55 00:03:25.939 --> 00:03:29.099 that demographic, kind of like with every, with every group, 56 00:03:29.139 --> 00:03:31.039 when I was a kid, it was a generation gap. 57 00:03:31.099 --> 00:03:35.039 They call it the generation gap. No 17-year-old wants to 58 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.169 be like their dad or their mom or their parents. 59 00:03:38.210 --> 00:03:42.409 They just don't. So I think there is a tendency, 60 00:03:42.509 --> 00:03:48.949 especially if people play into that, that young folks are 61 00:03:48.969 --> 00:03:52.289 going to automatically vote. It's not because they hate Trump 62 00:03:52.330 --> 00:03:53.889 and it's not because they hate this and hate that. 63 00:03:54.110 --> 00:03:56.810 It's because they desperately don't want to be like their parents. 64 00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:00.680 And I understand that. So I think I would have 65 00:04:00.699 --> 00:04:05.469 done something to try to get in there and say, 66 00:04:05.509 --> 00:04:09.289 you know, that, that, uh, I don't know. I don't know, 67 00:04:09.310 --> 00:04:10.669 but I'm shocked. I'm just shocked. 68 00:04:12.030 --> 00:04:16.939 I'm, uh, wondering where the pony is in this steaming 69 00:04:17.019 --> 00:04:17.879 pile of poo. 70 00:04:20.019 --> 00:04:23.850 Uh, What do you think? What's going to happen? We 71 00:04:24.149 --> 00:04:26.189 have a crystal ball here? 72 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:29.279 Well, I do think a big part of it was gas. 73 00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.379 I mean, look, when people can't gas up their car, 74 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:35.060 pay their bills, and get that extra piece of meat 75 00:04:35.259 --> 00:04:38.410 at the grocery store, that makes a difference. And whoever's 76 00:04:38.470 --> 00:04:40.550 in office is going to get the blame whether they 77 00:04:40.589 --> 00:04:43.529 deserve it or not. And we were very concerned about 78 00:04:43.550 --> 00:04:46.329 the gas situation. Also, people didn't like the war in Iran, 79 00:04:46.370 --> 00:04:49.180 which got the blame, which really was the cause of it. 80 00:04:49.750 --> 00:04:53.089 High gas prices. So that is enough right there. You know, 81 00:04:53.129 --> 00:04:56.310 things that are going to impact your everyday life like that, 82 00:04:56.490 --> 00:04:59.490 they're like, I'm not voting for the guy there. I'm 83 00:04:59.509 --> 00:05:00.170 going to change. 84 00:05:01.050 --> 00:05:04.689 I agree on everything except Tallarico. 85 00:05:05.689 --> 00:05:08.250 I don't think Tallarico would have anything to do with. 86 00:05:08.449 --> 00:05:12.310 I mean, how in the world is a vegan who's 87 00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:13.600 against fossil fuels. 88 00:05:15.379 --> 00:05:17.259 representing texas texas has. 89 00:05:17.139 --> 00:05:19.699 Been changing for a long time but it's a great 90 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:24.129 place though remember ted cruz almost lost uh i think 91 00:05:24.170 --> 00:05:26.910 beta i think that was his name and it's the 92 00:05:26.949 --> 00:05:29.850 demographics have been changing a lot a lot more than 93 00:05:29.889 --> 00:05:32.230 we thought uh but for the governor to go down 94 00:05:32.949 --> 00:05:35.569 and for the fact to get the i mean oh 95 00:05:35.610 --> 00:05:38.870 yes it's one thing for these people the federal laws 96 00:05:38.910 --> 00:05:43.569 but it's also statewide You know, these are executives. You know, 97 00:05:43.610 --> 00:05:47.860 they're president of their state. And for Texas to go blue. 98 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.040 I mean, it's been a minute. I mean, Ann Richards 99 00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:53.680 did it. But it's been a minute. I mean, this 100 00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:56.259 has been the worst beating. 101 00:05:56.379 --> 00:05:57.060 Ass whooping. 102 00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:57.500 Yeah. 103 00:05:58.220 --> 00:05:58.949 What did George W. 104 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:00.279 Bush call it? 105 00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:00.699 Thumping. 106 00:06:01.060 --> 00:06:02.139 This was a thumping. 107 00:06:03.029 --> 00:06:04.279 And we did not expect it. 108 00:06:04.310 --> 00:06:06.910 I didn't expect a thumping. I thought I honestly, truly 109 00:06:07.029 --> 00:06:09.269 believed we were going to be doing the thumping. 110 00:06:10.029 --> 00:06:11.370 I really didn't think. 111 00:06:11.230 --> 00:06:13.250 That, but I thought we'd at least get one house 112 00:06:13.410 --> 00:06:15.129 and we did not. And then we lost a lot 113 00:06:15.149 --> 00:06:19.370 of statewide races. Oh, it's terrible, but it is America. 114 00:06:18.930 --> 00:06:21.350 Still the best. Absolutely. 115 00:06:21.370 --> 00:06:23.310 That's why we're wearing red, white, and blue today. 116 00:06:23.670 --> 00:06:26.769 I mean, it's, it's upsetting, but you know, one thing 117 00:06:27.250 --> 00:06:29.910 is I think that if the Democrats lost, don't know, 118 00:06:30.509 --> 00:06:33.040 but there may have been crazy people

in the streets 119 00:06:33.100 --> 00:06:33.699 setting things up. 120 00:06:33.709 --> 00:06:35.699 Oh yeah. Things set on fire. Yeah, it's true. 121 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:40.240 Democrats do not complain about Republicans, uh, being, you know, 122 00:06:41.180 --> 00:06:41.970 gentleman about it. 123 00:06:42.220 --> 00:06:42.680 Oh, yeah. 124 00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:47.040 Well, meaning really the president's like, okay, he's not even 125 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:47.569 fighting it. 126 00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:48.139 No. 127 00:06:48.620 --> 00:06:52.079 And shouldn't, because it was shellacking. Now, I will say, 128 00:06:52.339 --> 00:06:58.439 John Thune sucks. John Thune, please, just go to another country. 129 00:06:58.689 --> 00:07:02.089 You're terrible. Because the Save America Act would have helped. 130 00:07:02.129 --> 00:07:03.850 I don't know if it would have made enough of 131 00:07:03.930 --> 00:07:07.089 a difference. I think in some races it would have. 132 00:07:07.110 --> 00:07:10.740 It may have been enough. But John Thune, a Republican. 133 00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:14.029 Well, there were 20,000 votes in Los Angeles alone. 134 00:07:14.050 --> 00:07:17.529 The big villain. I cannot believe John Thune did what 135 00:07:17.550 --> 00:07:19.850 he did. But I don't know. I feel like maybe 136 00:07:19.930 --> 00:07:21.569 one day he'll pop up on an island with a 137 00:07:21.610 --> 00:07:24.949 great big mansion and a set of cards or something. 138 00:07:24.970 --> 00:07:28.860 Because there's something really weird about this guy who is 139 00:07:28.980 --> 00:07:31.540 the leader of the Senate for the Republican Party. And 140 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.360 you're not going to pass the Save America Act. So 141 00:07:34.420 --> 00:07:35.579 people have to have voter I.D. 142 00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:38.519 I mean, why? Yeah. 143 00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:42.000 Compromise in some way and compromise can mean a lot 144 00:07:42.019 --> 00:07:46.670 of things, but, uh, even if it's his brain was compromised, 145 00:07:47.050 --> 00:07:49.589 but it's just too bad. So, but what are we 146 00:07:49.610 --> 00:07:52.389 going to do? We have to move forward. We have to, 147 00:07:52.410 --> 00:07:55.250 but to your point, honey, to learn from the mistakes. 148 00:07:56.310 --> 00:07:58.149 Yeah. Well, identify the mistakes first. 149 00:07:58.310 --> 00:08:03.290 Right. And then, uh, and then learn from them because, uh, in, 150 00:08:04.209 --> 00:08:08.250 so we've been watching the news and, and, There seems 151 00:08:08.290 --> 00:08:12.170 to be a thread of the thought that, okay, well, 152 00:08:12.230 --> 00:08:15.009 now they won without having a platform. 153 00:08:16.029 --> 00:08:16.290 Really. 154 00:08:16.310 --> 00:08:20.449 They won without really touting any policy. 155 00:08:20.490 --> 00:08:25.029 Remember, this does usually happen. Usually the second term. goes 156 00:08:25.069 --> 00:08:28.009 the other way. Whoever the president is, the other party wins. 157 00:08:28.129 --> 00:08:29.310 That happens all the time. 158 00:08:29.850 --> 00:08:32.830 But not like this. Parties are different. They have differences 159 00:08:32.850 --> 00:08:36.620 of opinion about budgetary concerns and where money should go 160 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:37.899 and where money shouldn't go. 161 00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:40.220 This is truly apples in the refrigerator. 162 00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:44.100 Well, but it is the norm for folks to vote 163 00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:46.279 the other way during a midterm. But not like this. 164 00:08:46.340 --> 00:08:49.960 This was not just voting. This was like a nuke. 165 00:08:50.700 --> 00:08:54.679 I mean, it was unbelievable. is unbelievable, but we're going 166 00:08:54.700 --> 00:08:58.820 to have to figure it out. There are some doomsday 167 00:08:58.860 --> 00:09:01.690 folks that are like, our country's gone, it's over. 168 00:09:01.970 --> 00:09:05.789 Our country is gone and over if a Democrat takes 169 00:09:05.870 --> 00:09:08.429 the presidency in 28. 170 00:09:08.429 --> 00:09:10.500 I would say, our country as we know it. 171 00:09:11.590 --> 00:09:14.129 And you know, these people want to fundamentally, that's one 172 00:09:14.149 --> 00:09:16.720 of the first things Barack Obama said when he became president, 173 00:09:16.980 --> 00:09:19.159 we're going to fundamentally change America. 174 00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:21.399 Well, He's been working on that for. 175 00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:23.019 A long time. He's been working on that. And he 176 00:09:23.059 --> 00:09:23.919 never stopped. 177 00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:26.440 Working on it because he never left D.C. He was 178 00:09:26.460 --> 00:09:30.000 always having these meetings, you know, made the big cheesecake 179 00:09:30.070 --> 00:09:32.070 joke about, you know, the ballroom. 180 00:09:32.090 --> 00:09:34.730 I wrote a song about it. I did. It's very good. 181 00:09:34.750 --> 00:09:37.029 But why don't you maybe say that's right. 182 00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:41.580 We stopped going there today. 183 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.090 Maybe we're going to fundamentally change America for the better. 184 00:09:45.299 --> 00:09:45.879 I don't know. 185 00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:46.570 We're going to. 186 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:47.409 We're going. 187 00:09:47.429 --> 00:09:48.570 Fundamentally, it's trying to. 188 00:09:48.590 --> 00:09:51.990 Yeah, it's terrible. And apparently he has. He's certainly changed. 189 00:09:53.389 --> 00:09:57.889 He's changed a generation. And like I said, I'm very 190 00:09:57.970 --> 00:10:00.960 interested to know the numbers. You know, what is it 191 00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:02.559 that put them so far. 192 00:10:02.419 --> 00:10:03.039 Over the top? 193 00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:05.879 I think a lot of young voters. Yeah. You know, Florida, 194 00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.720 and I mentioned this to John, Florida. 195 00:10:08.620 --> 00:10:09.940 Is a

retirement state. 196 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:12.940 Yes. There are more old people there than young people. 197 00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:15.200 And we won, but not by much. No. 198 00:10:16.429 --> 00:10:17.029 Not by much. 199 00:10:17.289 --> 00:10:18.809 True. And that's scary. 200 00:10:19.940 --> 00:10:21.100 Georgia went way blue. 201 00:10:22.419 --> 00:10:25.279 Ohio. How can Vivek lose? He did. 202 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:26.519 Yeah, he sure did. 203 00:10:26.539 --> 00:10:29.059 So, yeah, our neighbor is going to be a blue state. 204 00:10:29.580 --> 00:10:31.100 Or at least the governor's office. 205 00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:34.669 Well, and Max didn't win here either. 206 00:10:34.690 --> 00:10:39.750 Yeah, bye-bye. Well, that was going to be tricky because 207 00:10:39.809 --> 00:10:44.850 his father and his grandfather and the Bias, I mean, 208 00:10:44.870 --> 00:10:47.820 they just dominated for so many years. You know, and 209 00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:52.620 he's nice-looking and a Marine and well-spoken, and he gets it. 210 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:53.519 But we'll see. 211 00:10:54.470 --> 00:10:56.690 It's like what has been happening, and we talked about 212 00:10:56.730 --> 00:10:58.289 this on the show a bunch of times, what's been 213 00:10:58.330 --> 00:11:03.269 happening in Manhattan is that people have to show ID 214 00:11:03.309 --> 00:11:05.070 in order to get their free groceries. 215 00:11:05.409 --> 00:11:06.690 Of course, Bruce Blankman. 216 00:11:06.730 --> 00:11:13.649 They're from Manhattan and not bridge-and-tunnel people. So that's kind 217 00:11:13.669 --> 00:11:16.740 of ironic that in a place where they are against 218 00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:20.120 voter ID, you have to have shopping ID. 219 00:11:20.259 --> 00:11:21.820 But you have to have the ID to get that 220 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:22.860 loaf of bread and milk. 221 00:11:23.100 --> 00:11:26.419 Right. Which makes sense, but not to vote. But not 222 00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:29.720 to vote. But I think what is going to happen 223 00:11:30.019 --> 00:11:35.139 is that the Democrats come, when is it, January 20th? 224 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.700 I believe so, yes. 225 00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.139 So once everything shifts, hang on between now and then. 226 00:11:42.179 --> 00:11:44.179 It doesn't matter what date it is. 227 00:11:44.539 --> 00:11:47.840 I mean, the president, when the president gets elected, it 228 00:11:47.879 --> 00:11:48.980 might be a different. 229 00:11:49.580 --> 00:11:52.759 So what's going to happen between now and then? 230 00:11:53.690 --> 00:11:56.009 Who has any idea? But then I. 231 00:11:59.370 --> 00:12:03.610 Think the Democrats are going to try to push forth 232 00:12:03.789 --> 00:12:05.289 some very common sense. 233 00:12:05.330 --> 00:12:08.190 They're going to start. They're immediately going to start acting 234 00:12:08.230 --> 00:12:08.970 like Republicans. 235 00:12:10.190 --> 00:12:12.250 January 3rd. Yeah, I thought

it was more in the 236 00:12:12.269 --> 00:12:17.230 beginning of the year. Well, that's when the president is inaugurated. 237 00:12:17.970 --> 00:12:22.490 So they're going to put forth some laws and some things. 238 00:12:22.509 --> 00:12:24.330 They're going to want to do some things that are 239 00:12:24.350 --> 00:12:26.649 going to sound very Republican and they're going to make sense. 240 00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:30.000 My sincere hope is that. 241 00:12:31.659 --> 00:12:37.250 Mr. Vito doesn't just Vito, he's a smart, smart man. 242 00:12:37.269 --> 00:12:38.590 Do you know what I think of every time you 243 00:12:38.610 --> 00:12:38.970 say that? 244 00:12:39.029 --> 00:12:39.679 Or they say it? 245 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:41.460 What? Miss Vito. 246 00:12:41.580 --> 00:12:42.700 Oh, Miss Vito. 247 00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:45.600 Come here, Miss Vito. 248 00:12:45.980 --> 00:12:46.799 That's right. Yeah. 249 00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:49.960 So every time I hear Mr. Vito, I think Miss Vito. 250 00:12:50.259 --> 00:12:52.720 It's my fiance. Are you his fiance? Yeah. 251 00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:53.639 Mona Lisa Vito. 252 00:12:53.659 --> 00:12:55.740 Mona Lisa Vito. Great movie. 253 00:12:56.179 --> 00:12:59.440 So I think they're going to try to, they're going 254 00:12:59.460 --> 00:13:02.820 to try to, force him to do things that are 255 00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:08.289 against common sense to try to damage whoever the 2028 256 00:13:08.289 --> 00:13:14.370 Republican candidate is. So, and then they're going to try 257 00:13:14.409 --> 00:13:17.129 to put forth some, you know, terrible, or they may not, 258 00:13:17.450 --> 00:13:21.830 they may just be wonderful and charming for, for, for 259 00:13:21.929 --> 00:13:22.549 two years. 260 00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:25.250 And I doubt it. 261 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:30.440 I don't know, but it's, it's, Frightening, truly frightening times 262 00:13:30.500 --> 00:13:35.919 because we have now, we have more than teased, excuse me, 263 00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:41.909 the United States with a socialist communist doctrine. We have 264 00:13:41.970 --> 00:13:47.090 more than opened the doors and let the vampire see 265 00:13:47.129 --> 00:13:51.490 what's in here. We have opened the doors, seen the vampire, 266 00:13:51.669 --> 00:13:56.590 and now we have officially invited him and her Into 267 00:13:56.669 --> 00:13:57.330 our households. 268 00:13:57.490 --> 00:13:58.649 Trojan horse. 269 00:13:58.889 --> 00:14:00.370 Yeah. So it's. 270 00:14:01.710 --> 00:14:02.129 And again. 271 00:14:02.149 --> 00:14:04.350 And I pray. I hope I'm wrong. 272 00:14:05.769 --> 00:14:07.029 But historically. 273 00:14:07.250 --> 00:14:07.769 It's a pie. 274 00:14:08.009 --> 00:14:16.809 Historically, socialism does not work. Socialism breeds. Breeds people like Castro. 275 00:14:16.929 --> 00:14:18.009 It's anti-American. 276 00:14:18.100 --> 00:14:24.120 Socialism is anti-freedom. It sounds cool at the beginning. You know, 277

00:14:24.139 --> 00:14:26.200 but it's kind of a. It's kind of a water 278 00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.419 cooler in a concentration camp. Oh, well, here's a little 279 00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:31.759 relief from what's going on. 280 00:14:31.820 --> 00:14:34.659 Oh, thank you, thank you. And then, kapow. 281 00:14:35.610 --> 00:14:38.309 I mean, historically, and if history has anything to do with, 282 00:14:38.389 --> 00:14:41.450 I don't know, history, then it's not going to work. 283 00:14:41.730 --> 00:14:44.190 It's kind of like that little story about the zoo, 284 00:14:44.230 --> 00:14:47.500 and you've got the lion in his cage, and he 285 00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:50.080 didn't have to do anything, just hangs out. They keep 286 00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:53.210 chucking meat in there. Didn't have to hunt. And you 287 00:14:53.250 --> 00:14:53.950 have to do anything. 288 00:14:53.990 --> 00:14:54.929 You have to do anything. 289 00:14:54.950 --> 00:14:56.669 But then the door closes and you're locked in. 290 00:14:56.710 --> 00:14:56.870 Right. 291 00:14:57.190 --> 00:14:57.850 And that lion dies young. 292 00:14:57.889 --> 00:14:58.669 And you lose your freedom. 293 00:14:59.250 --> 00:15:02.870 So that's what it leads to. And it's really just, 294 00:15:03.190 --> 00:15:05.629 as you said, honey, it's scary. I mean, I love 295 00:15:05.669 --> 00:15:08.889 our country so much and I love President Trump. And 296 00:15:08.909 --> 00:15:10.870 people can try to blame him all day, but I 297 00:15:10.909 --> 00:15:14.789 don't care. He is awesome. And on a good note. 298 00:15:16.210 --> 00:15:18.070 We got to chat with him last week. 299 00:15:18.330 --> 00:15:18.649 We did. 300 00:15:18.789 --> 00:15:22.700 We went to a rally for Darlene Graham. She didn't 301 00:15:22.740 --> 00:15:23.070 make it. 302 00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:23.659 Right. 303 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:28.100 But we were able to meet the president's team. I've 304 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:30.179 met him before. I've known him for a while. 305 00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:32.100 He said I was good looking. 306 00:15:33.299 --> 00:15:33.720 Twice. 307 00:15:35.179 --> 00:15:35.759 Twice. 308 00:15:35.779 --> 00:15:39.750 He's on the podium. And so we chat with him 309 00:15:40.070 --> 00:15:41.809 before the rally or whatever. And then we go out 310 00:15:41.870 --> 00:15:44.360 and have us in the front row. and with all 311 00:15:44.379 --> 00:15:47.019 the other folks running, and then Lee Bryce as well, 312 00:15:47.059 --> 00:15:47.480 your friend. 313 00:15:47.539 --> 00:15:48.759 Right, Lee is there. 314 00:15:49.070 --> 00:15:54.470 Yep. And he's like, oh, John Schneider's here. That show, 315 00:15:54.529 --> 00:15:55.289 Dukes of Hazzard. 316 00:15:55.990 --> 00:15:57.169 I grew up with that show. 317 00:15:57.190 --> 00:15:58.269 What a great show. 318 00:15:58.330 --> 00:16:01.009 That part was a little, I felt like the numbers were. 319 00:16:01.029 --> 00:16:02.200 He didn't say it that way. 320 00:16:02.210 --> 00:16:02.659 He said it. 321 00:16:02.850 --> 00:16:04.070 I think he meant like everybody. 322 00:16:04.110 --> 00:16:05.889 He said it more like, you know, this is like 323 00:16:05.990 --> 00:16:06.549 apple pie. 324 00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:09.159 Yeah. Like we all grew up with it. We loved 325 00:16:09.179 --> 00:16:11.519 Dukes of Hazzard. I loved Dukes of Hazzard. And it's like, boy, 326 00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:12.299 you're good looking. 327 00:16:12.379 --> 00:16:13.279 That crazy show. 328 00:16:13.299 --> 00:16:13.840 Yeah, you look good. 329 00:16:13.860 --> 00:16:17.240 You're really good looking. Twice. And I agree. 330 00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:18.580 He's a very smart man. 331 00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:20.799 Oh, shucks. Yeah. 332 00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:23.519 So anyway, and of course, John was just mobbed by everybody. 333 00:16:23.610 --> 00:16:28.149 And everybody was very sweet and patient and basically waited 334 00:16:28.230 --> 00:16:31.370 in line to get a picture with John. And they 335 00:16:31.389 --> 00:16:33.190 were incredibly nice. 336 00:16:33.309 --> 00:16:34.750 These were senators and such. 337 00:16:35.149 --> 00:16:35.429 True. 338 00:16:35.889 --> 00:16:36.090 Yep. 339 00:16:36.350 --> 00:16:37.070 Elected officials. 340 00:16:37.169 --> 00:16:38.429 They like Bo Duke. 341 00:16:38.450 --> 00:16:39.509 They like Dukes of Hazzard. 342 00:16:42.019 --> 00:16:44.100 Alabama?

Yay. 359 00:17:18.460 --> 00:17:23.039 People are great who immediately come up and say they 360 00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.420 loved either Dukes of Hazzard or Smallville. Or the haves 361 00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:28.900 and have-nots. But I do, obviously, I have more of 362 00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:29.759 a kinship with them. 363 00:17:30.180 --> 00:17:31.440 Speaking of that. 364 00:17:31.460 --> 00:17:36.680 Let's see, you're watching this on Thursday. Tomorrow, we will 365 00:17:36.740 --> 00:17:42.410 be in Covington, Georgia, where

this whole thing got started. 366 00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:45.470 where Dukes of Hazzard started right there in the town 367 00:17:45.509 --> 00:17:47.210 square where, yes, there were two. 368 00:17:47.089 --> 00:17:49.109 General Lee's in one shot at the same time. 369 00:17:50.650 --> 00:17:54.529 We caught a General Lee parked in the square from 370 00:17:54.569 --> 00:17:55.539 the windshield of the other one. 371 00:17:55.549 --> 00:17:57.150 Did you say that Dukes of Hazzard in the beginning 372 00:17:57.369 --> 00:17:59.799 to Warner Brothers was just a joke? It was a filler? 373 00:17:59.880 --> 00:18:00.519 It was just a filler. 374 00:18:00.539 --> 00:18:02.500 They didn't expect. They were just trying to fill in 375 00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:03.200 for something else. 376 00:18:03.220 --> 00:18:05.480 Five shows, that was it. It was super popular. 377 00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:08.900 It still is today. Very few shows have blasting power 378 00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:11.200 like that, that are iconic like that. Very few. 379 00:18:11.220 --> 00:18:11.319 Yep. 380 00:18:12.750 --> 00:18:15.609 I can't think of really any that have.... 381 00:18:15.970 --> 00:18:18.609 Andy Griffith. 382 00:18:18.670 --> 00:18:21.410 Yeah, but Duke's is different just because it's an hour. 383 00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:23.640 It's like Star Trek is different because it's an hour. 384 00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:26.500 But what people forget about, well, they don't even know 385 00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:29.960 about Star Trek. Star Trek was not a popular show 386 00:18:29.980 --> 00:18:32.099 when it was on. I think it only lasted three years. 387 00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:32.920 Yeah, it did not last long. 388 00:18:32.940 --> 00:18:36.140 And then in reruns and things, it became iconic. All 389 00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:39.160 of a sudden, Star Trek became something very special. 390 00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:39.880 Once a comic book. 391 00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:42.609 And I'm not sure why. I love Star Trek. 392 00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:45.230 I love it. Well, but they didn't when it was on. 393 00:18:45.289 --> 00:18:47.549 Dukes is different because they loved it when it was on. 394 00:18:47.589 --> 00:18:50.069 They loved it in syndication. They loved it in reruns. 395 00:18:50.089 --> 00:18:52.190 They loved it after school. They loved it on the 396 00:18:52.230 --> 00:18:54.450 Nashville Network. They loved it, loved it, loved it. Anytime 397 00:18:54.490 --> 00:18:56.950 it comes on, they love it, except for that movie 398 00:18:56.990 --> 00:18:57.309 they made. 399 00:18:59.069 --> 00:19:02.269 Well, at these Comic-Cons, and we like doing them because 400 00:19:02.329 --> 00:19:05.569 it's fun to meet everybody, and it's a festive time, 401 00:19:05.690 --> 00:19:08.710 and we just like it. It's good to see folks 402 00:19:08.750 --> 00:19:11.960 that love Dukes of Hazzard, but The only people that 403 00:19:11.980 --> 00:19:12.380 compete with. 404 00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:14.720 Covington's going to be... The only people that. 405 00:19:14.579 --> 00:19:17.369 Compete with Sean. William Shatner. 406 00:19:18.390 --> 00:19:18.789 Anything. 407 00:19:18.809 --> 00:19:20.109 You know, Star Trek's big. 408 00:19:20.190 --> 00:19:21.309 Star Trek's big. 409 00:19:22.049 --> 00:19:25.630 And Star Wars. If Anakin Skywalker's there, he's going. 410 00:19:25.509 --> 00:19:27.069 To do well. Oh, yeah. He's going to do well. 411 00:19:27.269 --> 00:19:28.089 Yeah, he's great. 412 00:19:28.109 --> 00:19:30.710 But Dukes of Hazzard is right up there in space 413 00:19:30.819 --> 00:19:33.160 with Star Trek. Right up there in the stars with 414 00:19:33.180 --> 00:19:33.720 Star Trek. 415 00:19:34.539 --> 00:19:35.859 The Dukes of Stars. 416 00:19:36.099 --> 00:19:36.380 That's right. 417 00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:37.079 The Dukes of Star Wars. 418 00:19:37.099 --> 00:19:37.519 So, yeah. 419 00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:38.900 The Dukes of Star Wars. 420 00:19:38.940 --> 00:19:39.759 The Dukes of Hazzard. 421 00:19:39.839 --> 00:19:40.200 It just. 422 00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:43.130 It gets... I think stronger and stronger all the time. 423 00:19:43.559 --> 00:19:44.079 It's amazing. 424 00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:47.390 Well, people are, nostalgic about that. And you're going to 425 00:19:47.410 --> 00:19:50.950 get even more nostalgic about the good old days. 426 00:19:51.019 --> 00:19:51.619 I think so. 427 00:19:52.259 --> 00:19:58.160 I think that I'm going to agree with Rob that 428 00:19:58.180 --> 00:20:02.539 we just saw on Newsmax. Rob Astorino. Astorino, that a 429 00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:09.390 bunch of states just committed suicide. They just don't realize it. Yeah, 430 00:20:09.410 --> 00:20:13.329 of course you don't realize it yet. But, you know, these, 431 00:20:13.869 --> 00:20:17.210 what's going to happen with the borders? Are all of 432 00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:24.880 the red states, all of the newly flipped blue states, 433 00:20:24.940 --> 00:20:30.339 pardon me, Democrat governors going to start more sanctuary cities? 434 00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:31.960 I have to tell you, probably the worst part about 435 00:20:31.980 --> 00:20:34.970 yesterday is Texas. Because with it being on the border, 436 00:20:35.009 --> 00:20:36.609 they're just going to open it up. And we'll never 437 00:20:36.670 --> 00:20:39.450 get it back. And we can't win without Texas. 438 00:20:39.930 --> 00:20:43.150 Didn't the president, though, put something into law like last 439 00:20:43.230 --> 00:20:48.359 week that said no future president can open the borders? 440 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:50.900 Yeah, but if they stack the Supreme Court, they can 441 00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:56.900 change anything. I don't know. It's scary. It's scary stuff. 442 00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:59.380 So what's going to happen with that? What's going to 443 00:20:59.420 --> 00:21:01.119 happen when they talk about health care? Oh, we're going 444 00:21:01.140 -->

00:21:05.920 to get free health care. Okay, well. The 15 to 445 00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:09.380 20 million illegals who came in during the Biden administration, 446 00:21:09.619 --> 00:21:12.160 they got free health care, but what about the veterans? No. 447 00:21:13.299 --> 00:21:16.480 What about the folks that are living on the streets 448 00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:18.339 in Los Angeles? You know, they care so much about 449 00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:21.569 the homeless in California, but are they getting free health care? No. 450 00:21:22.670 --> 00:21:26.470 The citizens that are homeless, the veterans that are homeless, 451 00:21:26.509 --> 00:21:27.769 are they getting free health care? No. 452 00:21:27.970 --> 00:21:29.190 Are they going to get free health care? 453 00:21:29.750 --> 00:21:36.009 No. Because eventually, free runs out, And the people who 454 00:21:37.109 --> 00:21:41.160 are paying for it, you know, the, the, the travesty 455 00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:45.200 about last night is, or yesterday is that it used 456 00:21:45.259 --> 00:21:50.720 to be yesterday morning, billionaires or people who are entrepreneurs, 457 00:21:50.740 --> 00:21:53.529 people who are working successful people who own like our 458 00:21:53.589 --> 00:21:56.730 guy down here who owns his own donut shop. And 459 00:21:56.750 --> 00:21:59.470 we just met another gentleman who's opening up another, like 460 00:21:59.509 --> 00:22:02.039 a pastry shop on, uh, On Jefferson. 461 00:22:02.230 --> 00:22:04.079 Yeah, because we're mainstream USA people. 462 00:22:04.099 --> 00:22:04.400 Yeah. 463 00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:04.819 Work. 464 00:22:05.359 --> 00:22:08.619 They work hard. They love their country. They love their business. 465 00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:11.559 And now it's going to get even harder for these folks. 466 00:22:11.579 --> 00:22:12.460 Now, where do people go? 467 00:22:13.440 --> 00:22:16.059 So the people who are saying no to the billionaire 468 00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:20.559 tax and no to excessive tax. 469 00:22:20.579 --> 00:22:21.559 They leave California. 470 00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:22.779 I know, but where do they go now? 471 00:22:23.259 --> 00:22:23.619 Florida. 472 00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:27.799 Florida. There's only one place. There's only one bastion of hope. 473 00:22:27.950 --> 00:22:28.890 I'm telling you, Texas. 474 00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:31.039 Indiana's great. Kentucky's great. 475 00:22:31.259 --> 00:22:35.140 But that's not where Silicon Valley people are going to go. 476 00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:38.660 Texas is totally in the traffic. Texas, I can't believe. 477 00:22:38.700 --> 00:22:38.859 John. 478 00:22:39.259 --> 00:22:40.549 I have to tell you, to me, that was the 479 00:22:40.569 --> 00:22:40.849 biggest shock. 480 00:22:40.869 --> 00:22:42.210 Thank God for Indiana, by the way. 481 00:22:42.269 --> 00:22:45.809 Thank God for Kentucky. Thank you, Florida. 482 00:22:46.660 --> 00:22:49.299 And I think Max would have won maybe if he'd 483 00:22:49.339 --> 00:22:51.559 gotten in earlier. But Bo Bayh. 484 00:22:51.579 --> 00:22:53.240 I think you're right. 485 00:22:53.259 --> 00:22:55.039 The Bayh. 486 00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:55.759 He did well. 487 00:22:56.259 --> 00:22:58.380 He wasn't in there long. 488 00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:02.200 I'm telling you, it is like the Kennedy legacy of Indiana. 489 00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:07.460 It is. Meaning like Kennedy, you know, even Republicans liked Kennedy. 490 00:23:08.470 --> 00:23:10.990 Republicans voted for Bo Bayh, too. I know they did. 491 00:23:11.009 --> 00:23:11.869 I know they did. 492 00:23:11.910 --> 00:23:14.849 We sat at a restaurant that we love here. Right. 493 00:23:15.970 --> 00:23:20.289 You know, just take house. Yep. And this woman's like, oh, well, 494 00:23:20.789 --> 00:23:22.809 he's going to win. And I hated it because I 495 00:23:22.829 --> 00:23:25.890 knew she was right or I was worried she might 496 00:23:25.950 --> 00:23:26.559 be right. 497 00:23:26.579 --> 00:23:27.319 Didn't want to be right. 498 00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:28.779 Didn't want her to be right. 499 00:23:29.460 --> 00:23:31.460 Maybe, maybe... But they. 500 00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:33.819 Come across as Republicans. That's how they win in Indiana. 501 00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:35.319 Well, and maybe, you know, what I was saying about 502 00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:37.609 Beau Bayh was that, you know, if he wins, God forbid, 503 00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:38.930 if he wins, he's going to get there, but he 504 00:23:38.970 --> 00:23:39.569 won't be able to. 505 00:23:39.549 --> 00:23:41.769 Do any of the things he's running on because they 506 00:23:41.809 --> 00:23:42.430 won't let him. 507 00:23:42.609 --> 00:23:45.930 Well, maybe I'm... That's a different office. 508 00:23:46.009 --> 00:23:47.730 Yes, but that has everything to do with voters. 509 00:23:47.750 --> 00:23:48.569 Oh, I agree. 510 00:23:48.910 --> 00:23:49.359 I agree. 511 00:23:49.690 --> 00:23:55.119 But maybe I'm making the old guy mistake again. You know, maybe... 512 00:23:55.349 --> 00:24:00.230 Maybe they use the Democrat Socialists to be the sparkle 513 00:24:00.289 --> 00:24:01.170 and all this stuff. 514 00:24:01.369 --> 00:24:04.450 I don't know. 515 00:24:04.509 --> 00:24:07.119 Maybe they just use that. Maybe they will come back 516 00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:12.839 toward the middle. Maybe that was all the pomp and 517 00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:16.140 circumstance to get over the hurdle of the midterms. 518 00:24:16.539 --> 00:24:16.859 Maybe. 519 00:24:16.900 --> 00:24:17.200 I don't know. 520 00:24:17.220 --> 00:24:19.289 I think that perhaps that's wishful thinking. 521 00:24:19.750 --> 00:24:24.069 But maybe well because it can't be all democrats cannot 522 00:24:24.210 --> 00:24:25.930 be that crazy. 523 00:24:27.309 --> 00:24:30.710 You only need a nap and the other ones and 524 00:24:30.750 --> 00:24:34.109 but that's a different story because he's very nice-looking he's 525

00:24:34.170 --> 00:24:36.869 military you would think he was a republican you know 526 00:24:36.890 --> 00:24:38.670 and that's just like he sounds like it was like 527 00:24:38.730 --> 00:24:41.829 a candidate to ensure a very very polite you know 528 00:24:41.869 --> 00:24:43.569 he's like his mom is not you know it is 529 00:24:44.089 --> 00:24:46.869 dad charming to you but his mom really season by 530 00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:50.819 yet i mean and then The name. You know, name 531 00:24:50.859 --> 00:24:52.420 recognition is huge. 532 00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:53.500 Oh, absolutely. 533 00:24:53.539 --> 00:24:56.740 The byes have been around forever and then honestly went 534 00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.480 away for a bit. And here they are back during 535 00:24:59.500 --> 00:25:03.049 this wave. So, but we love Indiana. And, you know, 536 00:25:03.089 --> 00:25:06.410 and I think we should be good Hoosiers and say congratulations. 537 00:25:06.509 --> 00:25:12.890 Absolutely. And we'll pray and we'll support unless they're insane. 538 00:25:12.910 --> 00:25:15.170 You know, if people want to do good things, absolutely. 539 00:25:15.430 --> 00:25:18.740 We'll help. We'll support good things for the people of Indiana. 540 00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:19.059 We'll help. 541 00:25:19.869 --> 00:25:21.569 People who want to do good things for any one 542 00:25:21.609 --> 00:25:22.950 of our amazing states. 543 00:25:23.049 --> 00:25:25.869 And I have Democrat friends. I mean, you know, the 544 00:25:25.910 --> 00:25:30.730 Democrats in Indiana are not the Democrats in California. I mean, 545 00:25:30.779 --> 00:25:37.500 the Democrats in Indiana are Republicans in California. Ah, true. Yeah, so, 546 00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:39.900 you know, we're in a really wonderful state. It is 547 00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:44.980 bright red, but buh-bye. Gotta give him credit. He absolutely won. 548 00:25:45.069 --> 00:25:50.619 And I tried. Tried to get him tossed out. That's 549 00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:51.079 what you do. 550 00:25:51.140 --> 00:25:53.019 We're not going to vote for the Democrat, but we 551 00:25:53.059 --> 00:25:53.900 can be supportive. 552 00:25:54.140 --> 00:25:54.500 Absolutely. 553 00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:57.039 Because you are Hoosier like we are, and that's the 554 00:25:57.079 --> 00:26:00.960 way it goes. You won. And President Trump was like that. Hey, 555 00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:01.359 they won. 556 00:26:01.380 --> 00:26:04.049 I'll work with them. Hey, we'll make a deal. As 557 00:26:04.089 --> 00:26:08.710 long as it's not ridiculous. That's the thing. I mean, 558 00:26:08.730 --> 00:26:11.130 if they're going to try... Here's the scariest thing for 559 00:26:11.170 --> 00:26:13.309 me is... Well, two things. 560 00:26:13.529 --> 00:26:16.549 The border is number one, but an open border. 561 00:26:17.059 --> 00:26:20.119 which I hope the president did something to preclude that 562 00:26:20.140 --> 00:26:21.099 from ever happening again. 563 00:26:21.779 --> 00:26:24.880 But the defunding of the police, I. 564 00:26:24.539 --> 00:26:27.960 Mean, this guy that won Syed, Syed, Syed, who won 565 00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:30.480 in Minnesota, not Minnesota, Michigan. 566 00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:32.759 I thought we could win. 567 00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:38.259 Is for, is for, I think, not only defunding the police, 568 00:26:38.339 --> 00:26:42.160 but like abolishing them and getting rid of the second amendment. 569 00:26:42.460 --> 00:26:45.609 I mean, I actually thought there were Muslims before a bit. 570 00:26:46.450 --> 00:26:49.160 I thought, even in Indiana, I thought one of them, 571 00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:51.839 I'm a little confused because I thought on the news 572 00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:56.079 it said this is the first Muslim to make it out. Well, Senate. Oh, Senate. 573 00:26:56.140 --> 00:26:58.920 That's what it is. Yeah. The first Muslim in the Senate. 574 00:26:59.369 --> 00:26:59.990 And we have those. 575 00:27:00.029 --> 00:27:00.950 It's not in the House. 576 00:27:00.970 --> 00:27:03.529 It's not in the Senate. I think she's a Democrat, 577 00:27:03.609 --> 00:27:05.369 and I wish she was a Republican, but the first 578 00:27:05.430 --> 00:27:10.029 black female governor. And forgive me, I don't. 579 00:27:10.130 --> 00:27:12.160 I think her name's Keisha something. 580 00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:12.640 Yeah. 581 00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:13.380 Like three words. 582 00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:17.250 I think that's fantastic. I think that's fantastic. I have 583 00:27:17.289 --> 00:27:20.589 no idea what her policies are. But isn't it funny? 584 00:27:20.670 --> 00:27:23.690 I think it's kind of funny that that should be 585 00:27:23.950 --> 00:27:27.039 screamed from the rooftops. Nobody's saying anything about it. Except, 586 00:27:27.660 --> 00:27:33.579 you know, a disappointed Republican. I'm applauding her. That's fantastic. 587 00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:35.740 We don't care about that. I mean, we always say that. 588 00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:39.420 We're on merit. I don't care if you're black, white, green, woman, man. 589 00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:42.529 I don't care. But I want you to win on 590 00:27:42.549 --> 00:27:46.029 your merits. And I want you to be someone. 591 00:27:46.049 --> 00:27:46.990 Meritocracy. 592 00:27:47.049 --> 00:27:49.970 That's right. More meritocracy. I don't think you should... I 593 00:27:51.230 --> 00:27:55.069 don't think you should get any leeway for having a 594 00:27:55.109 --> 00:27:57.450 different color skin or having a different. 595 00:27:58.410 --> 00:28:00.190 No, and you know, what I love. 596 00:28:00.230 --> 00:28:02.210 You should be on the job that you do. 597 00:28:02.450 --> 00:28:05.609 I love that the gentleman who won the governor's race 598 00:28:05.769 --> 00:28:10.079 in Florida never mentioned it. 599 00:28:10.140 --> 00:28:13.440 No, he never did. The black guy who won the 600 00:28:13.460 --> 00:28:17.109 next governor...

That's fantastic. I did not mention it, but 601 00:28:17.130 --> 00:28:17.809 that's what I mean. 602 00:28:17.869 --> 00:28:18.809 And nobody else did either. 603 00:28:18.849 --> 00:28:20.750 He didn't want it to be about that. In fact, 604 00:28:20.809 --> 00:28:23.049 if I was a black woman, I'd be insulted if 605 00:28:23.309 --> 00:28:25.029 they were like, well, I'm going to vote for you 606 00:28:25.069 --> 00:28:27.170 because you're a black woman. No one should vote for me. 607 00:28:27.490 --> 00:28:28.130 Because I'm good. 608 00:28:28.170 --> 00:28:30.269 Because my policies will be great. 609 00:28:30.329 --> 00:28:31.009 I'm smart. 610 00:28:31.230 --> 00:28:34.750 I'm capable. Not for that reason. So, you know, I 611 00:28:34.789 --> 00:28:36.910 don't think it should be about your skin color or 612 00:28:36.950 --> 00:28:41.670 your sex. I don't like that. But anyway, but congratulations, too. 613 00:28:41.690 --> 00:28:44.079 I mean, you know, the day after, which is the 614 00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:44.640 day after. 615 00:28:44.660 --> 00:28:46.119 This is Wednesday. 616 00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:50.700 Yeah, you'll see this on Thursday. But I'm telling you, 617 00:28:50.720 --> 00:28:55.799 it is just bizarre. It's bizarre. 618 00:28:55.960 --> 00:28:59.680 Maybe we're just old. Maybe I'm just old. You're only 29. 619 00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:03.329 Tony, don't put that. I just dropped the F-bomb. Get 620 00:29:03.349 --> 00:29:03.710 rid of that. 621 00:29:04.289 --> 00:29:04.609 All right. 622 00:29:04.690 --> 00:29:06.150 Say that. Maybe we're just old. 623 00:29:06.170 --> 00:29:09.559 Maybe we're just old. Or maybe I'm just old because 624 00:29:09.579 --> 00:29:09.960 you're only 29. 625 00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:11.869 Well, I'm about to turn 30. 626 00:29:11.869 --> 00:29:13.549 It happens. 627 00:29:14.029 --> 00:29:15.230 I can't believe it. I'm going to turn 30. 628 00:29:15.230 --> 00:29:15.569 Really? 629 00:29:16.950 --> 00:29:22.609 In my mind. Hey, age is just a number. Yeah, 630 00:29:22.829 --> 00:29:25.369 my honey brought in a birthday present. 631 00:29:26.250 --> 00:29:27.910 Hopefully I don't set it on fire. 632 00:29:28.109 --> 00:29:30.009 It looks like it could be set on fire. 633 00:29:30.029 --> 00:29:30.829 Could be set on fire. 634 00:29:31.029 --> 00:29:31.710 But I don't want to. 635 00:29:31.730 --> 00:29:32.210 I love you. 636 00:29:32.329 --> 00:29:33.589 You're my birthday present. 637 00:29:33.609 --> 00:29:35.170 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't need anything. 638 00:29:35.349 --> 00:29:35.769 I'm good. 639 00:29:35.789 --> 00:29:36.789 Okay, then I'll just throw it away. 640 00:29:37.549 --> 00:29:38.539 Oh well, maybe not. 641 00:29:39.369 --> 00:29:39.549 See? 642 00:29:39.859 --> 00:29:41.259 No, I'm curious what it is. 643 00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:42.420 That's why I put it in the middle of the room. 644 00:29:43.079 --> 00:29:43.799 Thank you very much. 645 00:29:43.819 --> 00:29:44.240 You're welcome. 646 00:29:44.299 --> 00:29:45.039 It's going to sit there. 647 00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:47.259 I thought you were going to let me open it 648 00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:47.759 on the show. 649 00:29:47.779 --> 00:29:48.660 No, it's not your birthday. 650 00:29:49.359 --> 00:29:53.220 That's true. Happy birthday, baby. 651 00:29:53.259 --> 00:29:54.900 Happy birthday. 652 00:29:54.920 --> 00:29:57.400 Hey, so I'm scruffy because I don't know when I 653 00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:01.369 go to play the topless king. Whether or not, I 654 00:30:01.390 --> 00:30:04.150 don't think I should be clean shaven. They'll tell me 655 00:30:04.190 --> 00:30:07.710 when I get there. But what I usually do before 656 00:30:07.779 --> 00:30:12.880 a movie is I just let this go. Especially, I 657 00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:14.940 was going to trim my eyebrows yesterday because when I 658 00:30:14.980 --> 00:30:17.240 was doing some political commentary. 659 00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:20.160 I'm a king. It's like. 660 00:30:20.410 --> 00:30:22.910 I can't tell you anymore because we signed a contract. 661 00:30:22.930 --> 00:30:25.450 We're not able to talk about it. But we already 662 00:30:25.490 --> 00:30:27.710 did say he's the topless king. We'll leave it at that. 663 00:30:28.950 --> 00:30:31.079 Meaning he's playing a king. And he'll be topless. It's 664 00:30:31.099 --> 00:30:34.460 very exciting. I think you're perfect for that part. The 665 00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:34.859 topless king. 666 00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:36.019 Call me the eyebrow king. 667 00:30:37.619 --> 00:30:39.579 I think you're more like a prince. I think you're 668 00:30:39.619 --> 00:30:43.750 more princely. And that's not that a prince is a 669 00:30:43.769 --> 00:30:46.190 bad thing. A prince is a good thing. They're usually 670 00:30:46.230 --> 00:30:48.309 like the younger, beautiful. Purple rain. 671 00:30:48.650 --> 00:30:49.650 Purple rain. 672 00:30:51.410 --> 00:30:55.160 But yeah, so that's next week. That we're going to 673 00:30:55.190 --> 00:30:55.579 be on. 674 00:30:55.490 --> 00:30:56.279 The movie set. 675 00:30:56.339 --> 00:30:58.720 Already. Or a pilot. 676 00:30:58.880 --> 00:30:59.240 I don't know. 677 00:30:59.259 --> 00:31:01.559 We're not sure exactly what it is. But it's something 678 00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:03.180 that will be fun. 679 00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:04.960 Is this you're talking about something we're not supposed to 680 00:31:04.980 --> 00:31:05.180 talk about? 681 00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:05.599 That's right. 682 00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:06.140 Okay. 683 00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:07.420 Then let's talk about something else. 684 00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:08.599 Let's talk about. 685 00:31:08.619 --> 00:31:09.119 Being very vague. 686 00:31:09.819 --> 00:31:12.400 Being very vague. But this weekend is going to be great. 687 00:31:13.079 --> 00:31:15.940 It's called John Schneider Weekend in Covington. Friday. 688 00:31:15.980 --> 00:31:16.940 And they want to do it every year.

689 00:31:17.299 --> 00:31:20.579 Friday is the concert. 690 00:31:20.619 --> 00:31:20.829 No. 691 00:31:20.869 --> 00:31:22.119 Friday is the meet and greet. 692 00:31:22.849 --> 00:31:27.890 Which is, meet and greet sounds fancy, but it's autographs 693 00:31:27.950 --> 00:31:30.670 and stuff in the square there in Covington. 694 00:31:31.410 --> 00:31:35.230 And then Saturday is, I think, more of that. And 695 00:31:35.289 --> 00:31:37.130 then there's Parsco. 696 00:31:37.309 --> 00:31:38.170 Yeah, I mean. 697 00:31:38.509 --> 00:31:40.130 I wonder if there'll be a General Lee there. 698 00:31:40.910 --> 00:31:42.490 That, I can guarantee you. 699 00:31:42.569 --> 00:31:44.869 In fact, probably more than one. 700 00:31:45.029 --> 00:31:46.369 Pretty darn sure. 701 00:31:46.549 --> 00:31:48.089 Yep, so that's going to be great. And then I 702 00:31:48.109 --> 00:31:51.029 do a concert there sometime Saturday night. 703 00:31:51.130 --> 00:31:52.650 Yep. It'll be fun. 704 00:31:52.690 --> 00:31:53.210 Which is great. 705 00:31:53.430 --> 00:31:56.970 It'll be fun. Because now that the election is over, 706 00:31:56.990 --> 00:31:58.369 I don't know what I'm going to talk about. I'm 707 00:31:58.390 --> 00:32:02.069 going to say, hi, here's a song. Hi, here's another song. 708 00:32:02.150 --> 00:32:05.559 Here's why it's not a travesty, this part, is because 709 00:32:05.619 --> 00:32:10.099 the last show John did, which was great, but it 710 00:32:10.140 --> 00:32:11.900 was two hours instead of an hour and a half. 711 00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:16.700 Guess why? Talking about politics for half an hour. 712 00:32:18.710 --> 00:32:20.990 So obviously it didn't work. 713 00:32:21.009 --> 00:32:22.930 Well, wait a minute. Where were we? Where was that concert? 714 00:32:23.509 --> 00:32:28.319 That was North Carolina. How'd we do in North Carolina? 715 00:32:28.410 --> 00:32:28.880 We did great. 716 00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:29.380 Okay. 717 00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:32.660 No, I don't mean the concert. I mean, see if 718 00:32:32.700 --> 00:32:33.000 it worked. 719 00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:33.519 I don't know. 720 00:32:33.859 --> 00:32:37.019 I don't know. That's why we won't give up. 721 00:32:37.299 --> 00:32:38.240 Hell no. 722 00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:42.170 Now, suddenly that song means something. 723 00:32:42.390 --> 00:32:43.809 It's all right. 724 00:32:43.829 --> 00:32:44.569 Freedom isn't free. 725 00:32:44.609 --> 00:32:47.460 It's up to you and me, brother, I believe. She's 726 00:32:47.509 --> 00:32:48.420 worth it. 727 00:32:48.940 --> 00:32:51.750 Yep. Still believe in everything. Still believe in all of that. 728 00:32:52.450 --> 00:32:56.690 Still believe that we were outplayed. I don't think we were. 729 00:32:57.190 --> 00:32:59.369 Certainly they don't love our country more than we do. 730 00:33:00.109 --> 00:33:02.410 Maybe they just love it differently. Like I said, maybe 731 00:33:02.470 --> 00:33:04.230 I'm just old. Maybe I'm old. 732 00:33:04.349 --> 00:33:08.230 I think the young people were indoctrinated because of it. 733 00:33:08.390 --> 00:33:11.170 Obama did it. I mean, look, he just did it. 734 00:33:11.309 --> 00:33:15.660 It's a success to him. Because they started in the schools, 735 00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:19.059 they moved it along, and John was right when he said, well, 736 00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:22.599 for the Republican side, we've lost a generation. Yeah. They 737 00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:28.019 absolutely think socialism's okay. Like, they don't dive deep into it. 738 00:33:28.019 --> 00:33:32.740 I mean, everybody's on their phones. They don't have, you know, hand-in-hand... 739 00:33:32.769 --> 00:33:33.750 They don't have time. 740 00:33:34.390 --> 00:33:39.519 They don't take the time to research anything. And, you know, honestly, I. 741 00:33:41.339 --> 00:33:44.400 I probably wouldn't either if we weren't doing this or 742 00:33:44.460 --> 00:33:46.480 if I wasn't talking to people from a stage. 743 00:33:46.500 --> 00:33:51.440 But socialism even sounds good. I mean, I took sociology 744 00:33:51.460 --> 00:33:53.829 in college, and it's like, okay, this is like how 745 00:33:53.869 --> 00:33:58.029 people are, whatever. So even the name sounds good, but 746 00:33:58.069 --> 00:33:58.730 it's terrible. 747 00:33:58.849 --> 00:34:01.730 I grew up in the 60s, and I tell you what, 748 00:34:01.849 --> 00:34:05.349 the hippie communes, that was communism. 749 00:34:06.190 --> 00:34:09.030 And it sounds great. Communes, what's a commune? 750 00:34:09.889 --> 00:34:10.110 Right. 751 00:34:10.389 --> 00:34:11.210 Unless I'm wrong. 752 00:34:11.230 --> 00:34:12.269 Oh, my God. 753 00:34:12.389 --> 00:34:13.010 It's terrible. 754 00:34:13.409 --> 00:34:14.050 But you're right. 755 00:34:14.139 --> 00:34:18.300 Yes. And it sounded great. And it looks great on 756 00:34:18.340 --> 00:34:23.960 the poster. But eventually, you know, I'm from the I'm 757 00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:26.019 from that time. But I heard from my dad and 758 00:34:26.079 --> 00:34:28.519 from my grandparents, I guess there's no such thing as 759 00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:29.139 a free lunch. 760 00:34:29.780 --> 00:34:33.539 So I never expect a free lunch. Uh, so we 761 00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:34.280 now have. 762 00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:36.050 We always worked since we were kids. I mean, like, 763 00:34:36.190 --> 00:34:39.030 I started gathering eggs. I mean, that's a terrible job. 764 00:34:39.510 --> 00:34:41.820 So I detasseled corn because I lived in. 765 00:34:41.800 --> 00:34:42.380 A rural area. 766 00:34:42.400 --> 00:34:43.139 Chicken ever bite you? 767 00:34:43.980 --> 00:34:45.380 Almost. They can be mean. 768 00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:46.079 They don't like that. 769 00:34:46.179 --> 00:34:47.719 They don't like it if you take the right. 770 00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:49.619 Look, I did all that and you're trying to take 771 00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:49.860 it from me. 772 00:34:49.860 -->

00:34:52.679 And a terrible job. And detasseling corn, same thing. You 773 00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:54.239 have to go down the road. And, you know, and 774 00:34:54.260 --> 00:34:56.760 I'm not complaining about it. I did it because that's 775 00:34:56.800 --> 00:34:59.480 what you do. But you worked very young as well. 776 00:34:59.500 --> 00:35:00.469 Oh, yeah. 777 00:35:00.550 --> 00:35:03.070 I did magic shows. Yeah, yeah. 778 00:35:03.090 --> 00:35:05.889 I mean, I don't want that being anything given for 779 00:35:05.929 --> 00:35:06.329 no reason. 780 00:35:06.349 --> 00:35:07.590 And maybe, maybe I am. 781 00:35:09.730 --> 00:35:12.630 Again, the old guy sitting on the fence saying that 782 00:35:12.710 --> 00:35:16.550 that is at the foundation that what young people bit 783 00:35:16.849 --> 00:35:18.570 on was free stuff. 784 00:35:18.769 --> 00:35:20.130 Let us take care of you. 785 00:35:20.250 --> 00:35:22.469 Maybe I'm wrong about that, too. I don't think so. 786 00:35:22.550 --> 00:35:25.469 Because I have a lot of young people in my 787 00:35:25.530 --> 00:35:28.190 life these days that feel they're entitled to things they 788 00:35:28.210 --> 00:35:28.969 never worked for. 789 00:35:29.769 --> 00:35:31.860 And I just don't understand. 790 00:35:31.340 --> 00:35:36.039 That in anybody's front yard, backyard or porch. I don't 791 00:35:36.300 --> 00:35:40.349 get it because the math doesn't work out. If stuff 792 00:35:40.429 --> 00:35:43.530 is free, somebody has... The only stuff that is free 793 00:35:44.150 --> 00:35:45.929 is stuff that they couldn't sell at Walmart. 794 00:35:45.949 --> 00:35:46.670 But they don't care. 795 00:35:46.730 --> 00:35:49.409 And they carry it over to Goodwill. And actually, it's 796 00:35:49.429 --> 00:35:50.190 not even free then. 797 00:35:50.510 --> 00:35:52.210 I think they feel like they're getting away with it. 798 00:35:52.230 --> 00:35:54.690 It's like, ha, ha, ha, we're getting away with this. 799 00:35:54.730 --> 00:35:57.010 We're getting our free stuff. And they think that's a victory, 800 00:35:57.050 --> 00:36:01.429 which is horrible. I believe that's what they think. That's 801 00:36:01.469 --> 00:36:02.110 their mindset. 802 00:36:02.139 --> 00:36:06.639 Well, eventually, when all of the current people who are 803 00:36:06.699 --> 00:36:08.219 paying for the free stuff. 804 00:36:09.539 --> 00:36:09.860 two of. 805 00:36:09.880 --> 00:36:15.480 Which we are, when we die off, who's going to 806 00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:16.429 pay for the free stuff? 807 00:36:16.469 --> 00:36:17.219 It's going to get bad. 808 00:36:17.260 --> 00:36:24.190 Eventually, the people who voted for Democrat socialism yesterday, who 809 00:36:24.429 --> 00:36:27.090 were 18 and. 810 00:36:26.969 --> 00:36:29.929 A week, are going to say, well, wait a minute. 811 00:36:30.010 --> 00:36:31.510 I worked my ass off for this stuff. 812 00:36:31.550 --> 00:36:32.030 Why should I? 813 00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:35.780 They're going to get it 30. 814 00:36:34.460 --> 00:36:37.039 Years from now, and it's going to be way too late. 815 00:36:37.699 --> 00:36:38.400 Way too late. 816 00:36:39.809 --> 00:36:43.820 Like the Democrats that are leaving California. And even I 817 00:36:45.019 --> 00:36:48.199 think Robert De Niro was complaining about New York. And 818 00:36:48.219 --> 00:36:51.159 I'm like, did you people understand that they don't read, 819 00:36:51.179 --> 00:36:53.800 they don't study, they don't do anything. I have to 820 00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:56.159 tell you, you know, we went to the Hanover homecoming. 821 00:36:56.179 --> 00:36:57.110 That was great. 822 00:36:57.789 --> 00:37:01.650 Yeah. Yeah. It was amazing. But it made me realize 823 00:37:01.670 --> 00:37:07.050 that even though Hanover was super duper hard, super duper expensive, like, 824 00:37:08.070 --> 00:37:11.570 and it just super education i got a super education 825 00:37:11.590 --> 00:37:14.530 and i have a history degree so i know history 826 00:37:14.610 --> 00:37:17.380 meaning like people read. 827 00:37:17.159 --> 00:37:21.460 Your history because this never works it never works and 828 00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:23.800 and you know what they do they're on their phone 829 00:37:24.300 --> 00:37:28.849 all they're doing is instagramming not everybody Because, you know, 830 00:37:28.889 --> 00:37:29.769 we've been, we've seen. 831 00:37:30.190 --> 00:37:30.969 It's everybody. 832 00:37:31.190 --> 00:37:31.849 No, no, no. 833 00:37:31.889 --> 00:37:32.869 But at Hanover. 834 00:37:32.929 --> 00:37:34.550 Well, not at Hanover. You're right. 835 00:37:34.809 --> 00:37:39.530 Those students, especially my sorority sisters, were so impressive. They 836 00:37:39.550 --> 00:37:42.090 were so polite. And they were all lovely, right? I mean, 837 00:37:42.170 --> 00:37:42.849 really lovely. 838 00:37:42.869 --> 00:37:43.170 Yeah. 839 00:37:43.429 --> 00:37:44.469 But five years always were. 840 00:37:44.809 --> 00:37:48.219 Yes, sir. Yes, ma'am. No, ma'am. You're smart. 841 00:37:48.239 --> 00:37:50.119 Pretty or both. I was a smart one. 842 00:37:51.119 --> 00:37:51.780 You're pretty. 843 00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:56.739 I have moments. I've got to get hats on. But anyway, 844 00:37:57.659 --> 00:37:59.900 I think the young people, I think being on the 845 00:37:59.920 --> 00:38:02.639 phone all the time and not being able to maybe 846 00:38:02.659 --> 00:38:03.429 really develop. 847 00:38:04.650 --> 00:38:07.909 It's different. Well, we read or we listened because, you know, 848 00:38:07.949 --> 00:38:09.690 we drive so much. We listened to a book the 849 00:38:09.730 --> 00:38:13.429 other day, and it was talking about the lack. 850 00:38:13.469 --> 00:38:20.579 Of, what was it called? Not unscheduled, something play. 851 00:38:20.619 --> 00:38:21.940 I think kind of unaware. 852 00:38:22.800 --> 00:38:25.239 Well, no, they said that one of the most important 853 00:38:25.280 -->

00:38:30.639 things to develop a child's mind, a child's perception of 854 00:38:30.739 --> 00:38:35.500 what life in the world is, is play with other kids. 855 00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:41.420 So it was, it's not unscheduled, it's unsomething, it's not 856 00:38:41.460 --> 00:38:44.610 even undisciplined. But it's, no, no, no, it was just 857 00:38:44.659 --> 00:38:46.469 let them do what they want to do. You know, 858 00:38:46.489 --> 00:38:48.449 don't come in and say, okay, Bobby and Sally are 859 00:38:48.469 --> 00:38:50.630 going to do this, this, and this. No, just put 860 00:38:50.650 --> 00:38:54.190 them in like they do across from Mad Love. where 861 00:38:54.210 --> 00:38:56.579 the little, little, little crazy ones are like, ah! 862 00:38:57.090 --> 00:38:57.510 It's great. 863 00:38:57.530 --> 00:39:00.010 Yeah, and they're playing around, and they go over there, 864 00:39:00.150 --> 00:39:02.909 and they're beating the crap out of each other. And 865 00:39:02.949 --> 00:39:06.570 they're like throwing balls, dodge balls, and they're hugging, and 866 00:39:06.590 --> 00:39:09.309 they're climbing, and they're doing what you're supposed to do 867 00:39:09.369 --> 00:39:09.949 as a kiddo. 868 00:39:10.289 --> 00:39:10.570 Yeah. 869 00:39:11.449 --> 00:39:13.650 So that's very important. 870 00:39:14.250 --> 00:39:18.880 But now, I think they said the average age, first 871 00:39:18.920 --> 00:39:23.579 time a human being gets a phone is like nine. 872 00:39:24.409 --> 00:39:25.530 I would not allow that. 873 00:39:25.590 --> 00:39:31.219 Yeah, so it's, so they, they've lost it. they haven't 874 00:39:31.239 --> 00:39:31.800 even lost. 875 00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:36.860 Well, they've never been introduced to it. Right. Which is 876 00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:42.489 the real rub is not that, that, uh, uh, as 877 00:39:42.590 --> 00:39:46.170 an 18 year old, a 19 year old today has 878 00:39:46.210 --> 00:39:48.510 been trained out of social interaction. 879 00:39:48.730 --> 00:39:49.489 They've never known it. 880 00:39:50.010 --> 00:39:50.469 That's right. 881 00:39:50.510 --> 00:39:50.949 You're right. 882 00:39:51.789 --> 00:39:56.030 So how are they going to know that there's anything 883 00:39:56.989 --> 00:40:00.659 damaging to them with that? I mean, are people going 884 00:40:00.739 --> 00:40:03.960 to talk to their kids in the same room by 885 00:40:04.179 --> 00:40:05.940 FaceTime rather than looking at them? 886 00:40:05.980 --> 00:40:09.059 If they're across the room, they'll send a text. 887 00:40:09.099 --> 00:40:10.719 And parents are guilty of that, too. 888 00:40:10.820 --> 00:40:14.579 Parents do it. And I don't know. 889 00:40:14.619 --> 00:40:17.510 We've gone down a. We've gone down a. 890 00:40:17.550 --> 00:40:25.099 Bad road here, I think, with regard to basic human interaction. 891 00:40:26.619 --> 00:40:29.800 We have every piece of information that's ever been written, 892 00:40:30.389 --> 00:40:33.949 ever been printed on a piece of paper or typed 893 00:40:34.030 --> 00:40:37.650 on something on our phone in our pocket, every song 894 00:40:37.730 --> 00:40:44.400 ever recorded, and we are communicating less and less with 895 00:40:44.500 --> 00:40:45.000 one another. 896 00:40:45.019 --> 00:40:47.500 This is their world. I mean, we're on the phone, too, 897 00:40:47.539 --> 00:40:48.860 but we do have that. 898 00:40:50.039 --> 00:40:52.980 Well, we have our excuse just like anybody else. Well, 899 00:40:53.000 --> 00:40:54.119 but we. 900 00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:57.800 Experience real life. You know, John and I always laugh 901 00:40:57.860 --> 00:41:00.869 about this, where our parents are like, go outside, don't 902 00:41:00.909 --> 00:41:03.429 come back. I didn't even know where we were. Go outside, 903 00:41:03.510 --> 00:41:05.829 go play. Do not come back in this house. Do 904 00:41:05.889 --> 00:41:08.010 not sit in front of the TV and watch TV 905 00:41:08.070 --> 00:41:10.840 all day. Go outside. Don't come back until. 906 00:41:10.860 --> 00:41:13.630 The street light comes on. 907 00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:17.199 And my folks, my dad called it the boob tube. 908 00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:19.260 Did they call it the boob tube? You're in front 909 00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:21.260 of that damn boob tube all the time. Which we 910 00:41:21.320 --> 00:41:24.579 didn't do because when I was a kid, what was 911 00:41:24.659 --> 00:41:28.119 on television was what, you know, my parents were divorced, 912 00:41:28.139 --> 00:41:30.130 but if I was with my dad, what was on television, 913 00:41:31.030 --> 00:41:33.550 which was seldom, you know, it might've been probably football. 914 00:41:35.989 --> 00:41:39.420 We had to watch what he wanted to watch. At home.... 915 00:41:40.260 --> 00:41:42.280 Mom and I had about the same, you know, we 916 00:41:42.300 --> 00:41:44.659 watched I Dream of Jeannie, we watched Hee Haw, and 917 00:41:44.699 --> 00:41:46.280 you just posted me on Hee Haw. 918 00:41:46.300 --> 00:41:46.699 That's right. 919 00:41:46.719 --> 00:41:47.079 Pretty great. 920 00:41:47.099 --> 00:41:47.519 People love that. 921 00:41:47.539 --> 00:41:48.340 In the cornfield. 922 00:41:48.360 --> 00:41:48.940 People love that. 923 00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:49.300 In the cornfield. 924 00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:51.340 And you were surrounded by all these beautiful blondes. 925 00:41:51.409 --> 00:41:54.130 It was a hard day. It was a hard day. 926 00:41:54.429 --> 00:41:55.050 I could tell. 927 00:41:55.230 --> 00:41:58.949 I could tell you were not enjoying that. 928 00:41:59.090 --> 00:42:03.329 Yeah, yeah. 929 00:42:03.809 --> 00:42:06.570 I grew up watching Hee Haw, so me, I was 930 00:42:06.610 --> 00:42:07.050 probably 23, 24 when. 931 00:42:09.530 --> 00:42:13.630 When that happened, and I could not believe that I 932 00:42:13.710 --> 00:42:17.530 was in the cornfield with the Hee Haw girls. It 933 00:42:17.570 --> 00:42:22.389 was pretty amazing.

And doing the show with Roy Clark 934 00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:26.280 and with Buck Owens, Grandpa. Now, I never did the 935 00:42:26.300 --> 00:42:28.420 show with Junior Samples. He was gone by the time 936 00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:32.380 I got there. But met Minnie Pearl many times. She 937 00:42:32.420 --> 00:42:35.650 was amazing. Very, she was like.... 938 00:42:37.110 --> 00:42:37.929 She was a hat girl. 939 00:42:37.949 --> 00:42:38.730 With a tag on it. 940 00:42:39.090 --> 00:42:39.309 Mm-hmm. 941 00:42:40.289 --> 00:42:41.949 But she was also country on the show. 942 00:42:41.989 --> 00:42:44.969 But no, she was like a, I don't, she was 943 00:42:44.989 --> 00:42:46.860 like a college professor when you spoke to her. 944 00:42:46.869 --> 00:42:47.130 Oh, really? 945 00:42:47.150 --> 00:42:49.710 She was like, well, hi, how are you? Yes, well, 946 00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:53.420 just a moment. Hey, how y'all are? Yeah, she was, 947 00:42:53.820 --> 00:42:55.039 she was, what was her name? 948 00:42:55.059 --> 00:42:58.739 It wasn't Minnie Pearl. Gosh darn it. Oh, you know what? 949 00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:01.659 Somebody on there, tell us her name. She was a wonderful, 950 00:43:01.719 --> 00:43:02.300 wonderful woman. 951 00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:04.039 I don't know what made me think of this, but Barbara. 952 00:43:04.059 --> 00:43:06.500 She might have actually been a college professor. I'm sorry, Betty. 953 00:43:06.559 --> 00:43:08.480 But Barbara Mandrake. No, I interrupted. 954 00:43:08.500 --> 00:43:10.539 I love you. I'm sorry. 955 00:43:13.860 --> 00:43:14.599 The cricket again. 956 00:43:14.739 --> 00:43:15.739 We got to watch that show again. 957 00:43:16.699 --> 00:43:18.170 Oh, Wild Wild West. We love it. 958 00:43:18.539 --> 00:43:22.699 Because we're not watching the midterm outcomes anymore. 959 00:43:23.389 --> 00:43:23.570 No. 960 00:43:23.590 --> 00:43:26.090 Let's go back into the one. You know, that's what's 961 00:43:26.110 --> 00:43:26.849 going to happen. 962 00:43:27.630 --> 00:43:31.150 Maybe what's going to happen is now Republicans everywhere are 963 00:43:31.190 --> 00:43:36.550 going to really need their grilled cheese and mashed potatoes, 964 00:43:37.349 --> 00:43:40.519 which is Dukes of Hazzard. And Smallville. 965 00:43:41.019 --> 00:43:43.659 No, I think so. I think people are going to 966 00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:46.940 yearn for that. Like, you know, we need nostalgia, like 967 00:43:46.980 --> 00:43:50.320 you said. We need just Dukes of Hazzard. 968 00:43:50.340 --> 00:43:51.119 Yep. 969 00:43:52.300 --> 00:43:54.550 You know, and people already love it. I mean, anywhere 970 00:43:54.610 --> 00:43:58.550 John goes, the line is huge. So people really were 971 00:43:58.730 --> 00:44:03.030 really before this election realizing that they, what's wrong, honey? 972 00:44:03.750 --> 00:44:04.929 I thought I saw, oh, it's ice. 973 00:44:05.309 --> 00:44:06.170 Oh, it's back. 974 00:44:06.570 --> 00:44:10.250 It's

weird. It looks like a bug. It might be 975 00:44:10.269 --> 00:44:10.590 a bug. 976 00:44:11.050 --> 00:44:12.250 You think it's protein? 977 00:44:13.809 --> 00:44:16.469 Do you like protein on that salad?

But anyway, it made me 1026 00:46:09.409 --> 00:46:13.010 think of that and how wonderful Barbara Mandrell is, and 1027 00:46:13.070 --> 00:46:16.429 I do like it when Country singers do well. 1028 00:46:16.550 --> 00:46:19.269 I was country when country wasn't cool. 1029 00:46:19.369 --> 00:46:21.070 I mean, there have been a few.

Anyway, so Barbara, love you Barbara. 1035 00:46:33.880 --> 00:46:39.289 Early in the week. The sisters, they're great. They're so 1036 00:46:39.329 --> 00:46:39.650 much fun. 1037 00:46:40.030 --> 00:46:41.150 They're really, really great. 1038 00:46:41.230 --> 00:46:43.789 When I was loved is they played all these instruments. 1039 00:46:43.809 --> 00:46:44.929 I thought that was so cool. 1040 00:46:45.909 --> 00:46:46.289 Oh yeah. 1041 00:46:47.530 --> 00:46:52.719 They all played like the, they came from the era 1042 00:46:52.760 --> 00:46:56.780 where like the, uh, the Jackson five Jackson five didn't 1043 00:46:56.840 --> 00:46:59.400 do the instruments that much, but the Osmonds. 1044 00:46:59.059 --> 00:47:01.519 Did the, Oh yeah. 1045 00:47:01.960 --> 00:47:06.639 They would switch. They're amazing. Amazing. Amazing. But, uh, Yeah, 1046 00:47:06.860 --> 00:47:10.300 the Mandrell sisters are great. Barbara is wonderful. And I've 1047 00:47:10.340 --> 00:47:14.199 not seen Barbara in a long, long time. So hopefully 1048 00:47:14.219 --> 00:47:16.619 we'll get to go. And I'll get to congratulate her 1049 00:47:16.800 --> 00:47:20.789 on her Kennedy Center Honors Award. Which is really cool. 1050 00:47:21.050 --> 00:47:23.349 Yeah. And John and I went to the Kennedy Center 1051 00:47:23.389 --> 00:47:27.369 this last year. And it's kind of falling apart. 1052 00:47:28.159 --> 00:47:30.079 It's a big building. It needs help. 1053 00:47:30.179 --> 00:47:33.400 It needs a little love. But, you know, we're there 1054 00:47:33.480 --> 00:47:37.539 for Ben Carson's show when John was featured in it. But, 1055 00:47:37.579 --> 00:47:39.820 you know, I love the Kennedy Center, and it needs 1056 00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:42.460 to

be the Trump Kennedy Center. 1057 00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:48.159 And by the way, I heard somebody, I can't remember 1058 00:47:48.199 --> 00:47:52.170 who it was, but somebody in their victory speech blasted 1059 00:47:52.230 --> 00:47:52.909 the ballroom. 1060 00:47:54.010 --> 00:47:54.969 So here's the thing. 1061 00:47:55.570 --> 00:47:55.769 Really? 1062 00:47:55.789 --> 00:48:00.139 Really?

He's building it for you. 1070 00:48:22.940 --> 00:48:25.619 He'll only be there like a couple weeks after it's done. 1071 00:48:25.719 --> 00:48:26.920 I mean, so it's not for him. 1072 00:48:26.960 --> 00:48:27.699 For God's sake. 1073 00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:31.000 It's for future presidents and it's for future dignitaries so 1074 00:48:31.019 --> 00:48:32.480 they can be safe. Yeah. 1075 00:48:32.739 --> 00:48:35.630 So stop it. Just stop it. 1076 00:48:35.940 --> 00:48:36.619 It's ridiculous. 1077 00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:38.179 Okay.

gentleman that wrote 1144 00:51:30.539 --> 00:51:37.570 that music, when I was... In eighth grade, I played 1145 00:51:37.630 --> 00:51:43.949 Tevye at Fox Lane Middle School. And he was. 1146 00:51:43.869 --> 00:51:45.710 There because he had a child. 1147 00:51:45.849 --> 00:51:50.599 That's so cool. He was there. And the sheet music, 1148 00:51:50.619 --> 00:51:54.420 but he was so, because I was 13 and I 1149 00:51:54.460 --> 00:51:57.739 tell you, I tell you, I sounded exactly like I 1150 00:51:57.780 --> 00:52:00.719 sound now at 13 years old when I wanted to, 1151 00:52:01.480 --> 00:52:02.059 when I wanted to. 1152 00:52:02.710 --> 00:52:04.590 So when you were a big kid then. 1153 00:52:05.110 --> 00:52:07.250 And I was at. 1154 00:52:08.889 --> 00:52:11.469 Six, well at 14, I was the same height I 1155 00:52:11.570 --> 00:52:11.949 am now. 1156 00:52:12.199 --> 00:52:12.929 That's crazy. 1157 00:52:13.139 --> 00:52:15.039 Yeah.

We would, you know, go to summer break. 1169 00:52:42.260 --> 00:52:42.679 Eight minutes. 1170 00:52:42.719 --> 00:52:45.059 And come back, and the kid that was, like, to 1171 00:52:45.099 --> 00:52:48.460 here to me, way tall. I mean, they would grow 1172 00:52:48.480 --> 00:52:51.000 over the summer like that. Yeah. So, what happened to you? 1173 00:52:51.019 --> 00:52:51.300 Yeah. 1174 00:52:53.460 --> 00:52:56.519 But that's how it goes. But you weren't super tall early. 1175 00:52:56.539 --> 00:53:01.000 And I was heavy. I was very, I was, I was, uh, 1176 00:53:01.000 --> 00:53:05.210 240 pounds when I was 14 years old, when I was, yeah, 14, 1177 00:53:05.210 --> 00:53:07.760 15 years old. So I played Tevye and Fiddler on 1178 00:53:07.780 --> 00:53:10.920 the Roof at, in middle school at Fox lane in 1179 00:53:11.280 --> 00:53:15.360 Westchester County, New York, where oddly enough, the voting machines. 1180 00:53:15.820 --> 00:53:17.989 Broke down early on. 1181 00:53:18.639 --> 00:53:23.699 And then, um, moved to Atlanta with my mom, just 1182 00:53:23.760 --> 00:53:27.119 outside of Atlanta, went to North Springs High School in 1183 00:53:27.260 --> 00:53:28.480 Fulton County, Georgia. 1184 00:53:29.159 --> 00:53:32.710 And guess what the show was that year? Fiddler on 1185 00:53:32.730 --> 00:53:34.449 the Roof. And I was in. 1186 00:53:34.429 --> 00:53:38.610 Ninth grade and I was awarded the role of Tevye 1187 00:53:39.130 --> 00:53:41.090 in what was really the senior play. 1188 00:53:41.110 --> 00:53:42.230 Oh, wow. 1189 00:53:42.909 --> 00:53:49.139 But I was, and thank you, Tom King, for casting 1190 00:53:49.179 --> 00:53:51.260 me in that role, because he said, no, John is 1191 00:53:51.280 --> 00:53:53.800 the guy he should, because I mean, I knew it, 1192 00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:58.039 because I'd just done it. And so it was really great. 1193 00:53:58.079 --> 00:54:01.340 That changed my life. So Tom King, Victor Hansard, all 1194 00:54:01.360 --> 00:54:02.400 my teachers back then. 1195 00:54:02.420 --> 00:54:04.860 And they got you through school and into Dukes and Hazzard, 1196 00:54:04.940 --> 00:54:10.139 because you can act early, right? You graduated early because 1197 00:54:10.179 --> 00:54:10.860 of this gentleman. 1198 00:54:12.039 --> 00:54:13.199 What, because of Victor Hansard? 1199 00:54:13.219 --> 00:54:16.380 Yeah, because I went to summer school two years in 1200 00:54:16.400 --> 00:54:18.280 a row, because he said, I said, look, I want 1201 00:54:18.300 --> 00:54:20.940 to figure out how to get out of high school earlier, 1202 00:54:21.219 --> 00:54:23.960 and he said, he said, I agree with you, because, 1203 00:54:23.980 --> 00:54:26.389 you know, I was, I had done a movie for Disney, 1204 00:54:26.469 --> 00:54:30.389 I had done some, what do they call them, industrial 1205 00:54:30.449 --> 00:54:33.170 films in Atlanta, some commercials, I was working at the 1206 00:54:33.210 --> 00:54:35.969 Academy Theater, I'd worked at Onstage in Atlanta, so I 1207 00:54:36.030 --> 00:54:40.710 was ravenous, still am, ravenous about theater, ravenous about. 1208 00:54:40.550 --> 00:54:43.769 Doing it, doing, doing, I'm just getting started, that's true. 1209 00:54:44.300 --> 00:54:47.289 But He said, look, if you, he said, I've looked 1210 00:54:47.329 --> 00:54:49.130 at it. If you go to summer school two years 1211 00:54:49.190 --> 00:54:51.329 in a row. So I had this conversation with him 1212 00:54:53.260 --> 00:54:56.699 coming into 10th grade. So if you go to summer 1213 00:54:56.719 --> 00:55:00.219 school two years, that's amazing. You can, you can get 1214 00:55:00.260 --> 00:55:06.690 those classes. And then we, you don't have to come 1215 00:55:06.769 --> 00:55:10.070 for your, for your, you can graduate in your junior year, basically. 1216 00:55:11.369 --> 00:55:13.110 And then that was great. That was the plan. 1217 00:55:13.130 --> 00:55:14.670 I went to summer school the first year, went to, 1218 00:55:15.010 --> 00:55:20.250 And then I got an opportunity to do the Academy 1219 00:55:20.309 --> 00:55:23.969 Children's Theater, where we would write a show and then 1220 00:55:24.389 --> 00:55:29.599 bring it, a musical, to different schools. So I was 1221 00:55:29.900

--> 00:55:35.739 now 16 or 17, and I went to Victor Hansard again. 1222 00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:37.320 I said, hey, you know, this is a great idea. 1223 00:55:37.340 --> 00:55:38.199 He said, okay. Okay. 1224 00:55:39.489 --> 00:55:41.230 Cause that meant I would not. 1225 00:55:41.269 --> 00:55:45.090 Show up at school on my junior year until right 1226 00:55:45.139 --> 00:55:45.719 after lunch. 1227 00:55:45.780 --> 00:55:47.519 But you were still working on your career. 1228 00:55:47.559 --> 00:55:50.019 Well, I know. And he knew that. So he said, well, 1229 00:55:50.119 --> 00:55:53.619 it's a musical, right? And yes. And it was also, uh, 1230 00:55:53.840 --> 00:55:57.650 it was called under Odin's eye. So it was, uh, 1231 00:55:57.840 --> 00:56:02.500 it was historical. It was the Norse God. Uh, and 1232 00:56:02.539 --> 00:56:06.030 there was some foreign language. So he, he somehow talked 1233 00:56:06.070 --> 00:56:08.780 to the board of education and made it. So I, 1234 00:56:10.340 --> 00:56:13.449 Did my show in the morning. I got an English credit. 1235 00:56:14.309 --> 00:56:16.409 I got a music credit and I got a foreign 1236 00:56:16.469 --> 00:56:17.210 language credit. 1237 00:56:17.289 --> 00:56:18.329 That part's funny. 1238 00:56:18.349 --> 00:56:23.829 So basically I was, I went to those classes, but 1239 00:56:23.849 --> 00:56:26.780 I didn't have to actually go to the school until 1240 00:56:26.980 --> 00:56:30.699 after lunch. So thank you, Victor Hansard. You forever changed 1241 00:56:30.739 --> 00:56:33.980 my life. Thank you, Tom King and Vicki King. You 1242 00:56:34.219 --> 00:56:38.550 absolutely forever changed my life. And it's greatly appreciated. Oh, 1243 00:56:38.730 --> 00:56:41.030 and we ran into Cy Timmons a couple weeks ago, 1244 00:56:41.840 --> 00:56:46.300 who was a singer-songwriter who, again, changed my life with 1245 00:56:46.340 --> 00:56:49.980 his amazing talent at his restaurant in Atlanta back in 1246 00:56:50.000 --> 00:56:55.019 the 80s, pardon me, 70s, called Cafe Air One, which 1247 00:56:55.099 --> 00:56:57.039 is nowhere backwards. 1248 00:56:58.880 --> 00:57:00.260 That was a long diatribe. 1249 00:57:00.679 --> 00:57:02.659 Your turn. You've got three minutes. Go for it. 1250 00:57:02.679 --> 00:57:06.010 We've got three minutes left, and it's very exciting. Because 1251 00:57:06.050 --> 00:57:06.900 we could go on all day. 1252 00:57:06.909 --> 00:57:10.389 What are you going to talk about? You. Nah, I 1253 00:57:10.409 --> 00:57:10.909 just did that. 1254 00:57:11.829 --> 00:57:12.539 But I love to talk about you. 1255 00:57:12.550 --> 00:57:14.829 That was very self-serving, all that talk. But, you know, 1256 00:57:14.849 --> 00:57:15.150 it wasn't. 1257 00:57:15.190 --> 00:57:15.449 No. 1258 00:57:15.849 --> 00:57:18.289 Because your teachers are important. They're very, very important. 1259 00:57:18.309 --> 00:57:20.510 You're an actor, and this is how you got there. 1260 00:57:20.530 --> 00:57:25.480 And you still have this amazing career, which spanned from, 1261 00:57:25.559 --> 00:57:30.260 my gosh, you started with Smokey and the Bandit at 16. 1262 00:57:30.260 --> 00:57:33.179 Well, I started doing magic and juggling and all that. 1263 00:57:33.199 --> 00:57:33.699 That's 50 years. 1264 00:57:33.719 --> 00:57:37.860 Guitar playing at 8. Exactly. That's more than 50 years. 1265 00:57:37.889 --> 00:57:40.340 Mm-hmm. Yikes. 1266 00:57:40.400 --> 00:57:42.079 And you're what? 36? No. 1267 00:57:42.340 --> 00:57:47.880 I tell the truth. I'm 66. 1268 00:57:47.880 --> 00:57:56.659 But really 36. Really six. Well, there is that. There 1269 00:57:56.679 --> 00:57:57.440 is that. 1270 00:57:57.860 --> 00:58:00.260 Oh, just reading stuff. Got something coming up there. It 1271 00:58:00.280 --> 00:58:01.219 looks like a cameo. 1272 00:58:01.659 --> 00:58:07.039 But here's the thing. We are still like... America, USA, USA, USA, 1273 00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:10.219 all the way. We love President Trump. We're going to 1274 00:58:10.260 --> 00:58:13.570 do anything we can to be helpful. We helped some candidates. 1275 00:58:13.619 --> 00:58:16.730 Some of them won. Some of them lost. But mostly won. 1276 00:58:17.050 --> 00:58:19.369 Most of our people won. The only one that didn't 1277 00:58:19.389 --> 00:58:23.050 make it was really, oh, well, two. It was Max 1278 00:58:23.150 --> 00:58:24.530 and Darlene Graham. 1279 00:58:24.550 --> 00:58:25.329 Right. 1280 00:58:25.989 --> 00:58:27.630 And you know what? And I have to tell you, 1281 00:58:27.750 --> 00:58:30.829 I mean, let's just congratulate everybody, even the people who 1282 00:58:30.849 --> 00:58:34.980 didn't win, because that's a hard, hard job. It's so 1283 00:58:35.019 --> 00:58:37.530 difficult to campaign and do it day in and day out. 1284 00:58:37.570 --> 00:58:41.170 And we were talking about how President Trump is so sharp. 1285 00:58:41.730 --> 00:58:44.030 And he just, you know, even his staff was like, hey, 1286 00:58:44.070 --> 00:58:46.650 I've got an 80 year old that runs rings around us. 1287 00:58:47.010 --> 00:58:47.230 Right. 1288 00:58:47.409 --> 00:58:51.599 I mean, we love President Trump. We're so fortunate to 1289 00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:56.099 have him. And even with this crazy election cycle that 1290 00:58:56.139 --> 00:58:59.639 didn't go our way, we have President Trump. So I'm 1291 00:58:59.679 --> 00:59:02.260 very grateful for that. And I'm very thankful for it. 1292 00:59:02.260 --> 00:59:04.760 And it was so wonderful to visit with him.

And he knew it 1303 00:59:37.079 --> 00:59:39.570 and he loved it that John was committed enough to 1304 00:59:39.610 --> 00:59:42.269 be helpful at the rally. 1305 00:59:42.710 --> 00:59:43.369 Sure, absolutely. 1306 00:59:43.389 --> 00:59:46.389 With a line of people taking pictures.
