2:51
know i mean might as well be an elephant you know but ladies and gentlemen here's a cool fact that I found out while
2:57
drinking screw ball after you empty the bottle if you look at the back label it actually tells you how they make it yeah
3:03
it does i know i didn't know that until one day when I looked at the back of an empty bottle that I had sitting on my counter and I was like "What the [ __ ] is
3:09
that?" Exactly and then I realized that these people made this on their own like
3:16
this is a Yeah this is a family company american dream
3:22
what's the American dream Kyle let's go whatever you want because this is going to run completely into the segue I want to talk about okay um are we talking
3:29
about nuclear family or just American dream in general kyle what's your American dream my American dream i don't have one i'm living my American dream
3:39
what's that uh a good job is it good Kyle it's better than the last one yeah
3:46
i love it how do you feel about your healthcare i haven't tried it out but I love it do you so far how do you love
3:53
something you've never tried because I have it really that's like me saying I like [ __ ] and I've never had sex hey
4:00
man but if you know you've got [ __ ] whenever you want it just because you haven't had it how do I know that's what
4:05
I want because you've already had not [ __ ] until I get [ __ ] in the ass it's like
4:11
a three-way train Kyle well guess what i've been I love [ __ ] i'm going to go get it and then some guy comes up behind
4:16
me and [ __ ] me and sends me a bill hey man I had no insurance i have insurance now so it's better than not having
4:22
insurance okay I'm going to get a little eye right here now because I've been thinking about this stuff all day okay
4:28
what you're animating the Yeah I'm animating everything i wish you guys could see this because I don't have
4:33
hands but I still talk like I have them he talks with his body it's my whole body around in this chair yeah he's like
4:38
I don't know oh my god cuz it's crazy cuz people are stupid yep it's like one of those those toys with the sand at the
4:44
bottom and you smack it and like it comes back up i can agree with that because Yeah you're like just going
4:50
everywhere oh dude because I I have so much emotion that I can't I can't keep
4:56
it contained by sitting still i know i completely believe in the things I believe in i can't relate i mean besides
5:04
the believing thing but I can't relate with the talking i am talking with my hand but I'm talking wrist Kyle
5:10
i don't talk with my whole body though no I I'm passionate i love like if I
5:16
believe in something I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings but I'm passionate about the way I feel and I
5:21
think most Americans should feel that way yeah I agree there's a difference between being passionate and being rude
5:28
okay what's the difference the difference is listening touche yeah that's a good one that is
5:35
the difference really good if anyone can [ __ ] sit around and listen and debate Oh yeah the other side like I could
5:42
debate all other sides of everything I believe in because I'm knowledge i'm educated in what I believe and that's
5:48
the way it should be it it should be but you can't get mad about it because that's what America was raised on everyone gets their own beliefs and
5:55
whatever but you can't get mad at someone for what they believe in i agree
6:01
you know like unless it's like you know they believe in like the Holocaust yeah
6:06
if they believe in that kind of [ __ ] then Yeah that's a little upsetting but you know a lot of issues that are going
6:12
on in America a lot of people get pissed off if you say one thing about it
6:17
like abortion that's that's a [ __ ] touchy one exactly i'm not going to get
6:22
into it on this episode i'm going to start with a lower scale yeah that's probably a really good idea yeah it is a
6:28
good idea because that's the type of America we live in today Kyle yeah it's because we're not taught to debate about
6:34
it we're taught just to get angry and and and blame the other person for their beliefs exactly and that's not the way
6:41
it should be we're taught to point fingers Yep and be mad at the person that doesn't believe in what you believe
6:46
in yep and just be upset with them you can't be friends with them you can't be friends with him because he believes that exactly which is [ __ ] i mean I
6:53
believe I mean I have a lot of friends that don't believe in the same thing and I don't hate them for it i mean it's just what they they believe in well
7:00
that's that's my huge concerns because man I grew up in Jefferson County i'm
7:06
sorry me too i'm not going to deny it all right i
7:11
grew up in Jefferson County Missouri okay there was no black people in this area okay you know and at that time it
7:18
was the hard metal Nazi thing going on it was like racist and all that [ __ ] i
7:23
didn't fall into it but I never [ __ ] disagreed with it you know what I'm saying okay so I I was
7:32
confused until I went into the Marine Corps and that's why the Marine Corps changed my life is because I got in the
7:38
Marine Corps and I disappeared from Jefferson County because that's all I knew yep was my surroundings and these
7:44
people just acting the way they were you only know what's going on in your environment yep in your bubble right so
7:50
I joined the Marine Corps i get in the Marine Corps I've got Mexicans from LA
7:56
I've got [ __ ] guys from Boston that are black like it blew my [ __ ] mind
8:02
but the only thing I could do was soak it all in because I'm like here I am thinking I'm right
8:08
because I've never left my [ __ ] 25 meter perimeter that I'm allowed to and
8:14
all of a sudden I'm meeting the world yep and then not only am I meeting the world
8:20
of the United States I'm deployed in 2008 and I go meet a [ __ ] third world country my head was blown
8:28
yeah i can't imagine what it was like to see how they were living and what they were doing over there well I had to be
8:33
open-minded man yeah oh for sure i couldn't just go into the Marine Corps and go "Well I stand for this i'm a
8:39
neo-Nazi or I'm a [ __ ] black person hater." Just to reiterate white guy is
8:44
not no that does not build camaraderie at all it does not no it doesn't it does
8:51
not at all what does build camaraderie is finding interests that
8:58
the other person has it might not be an interest that you
9:03
have but you know what if you want to be their friend you try to find an interest
9:09
in it yeah so you can somewhat communicate with them on some level exactly you might not like it they might
9:15
want to play the record all night all night long but you know what you do you suck it the [ __ ] up and go you're my
9:21
friend and if this is what you want to [ __ ] play fine do it but tomorrow you're going to listen to my [ __ ]
9:26
exactly you know cuz there's got to be compromise in that relationship compromise is the key word oh hell yeah
9:33
i'm sorry to anybody who's listening to this one right now but I've been riled up all day about this like I mean I've
9:40
been looking at what's going on in the world today and I'm I'm bobbing and dodging the microphone right now i know
9:46
we need to get one attached i know what am I supposed to do but I'm so
9:52
passionate about this dude it's like I punch you you know i don't get like this unless I'm passionate i know you you're
9:57
very passionate and it's not that I Man
10:02
[ __ ] it's just so hard for me to believe that people are so stupid and
10:08
dumbfounded by their own environment that they believe the things that are happening around them are caused
10:14
by outside X factors yep
10:20
and and if anybody's listening you might not know what I'm talking about right i'm going to break it down so when I
10:25
said outside X factors a person is only
10:32
involved or only learns what their environment teaches them yep so how can
10:38
an outside factor influence that the only way an outside influencer can
10:44
infect that is by someone telling them that's what's happened yep
10:50
so if I locked a little [ __ ] boy up in a B or I don't want to say little boy that's weird yeah okay so theoretically
10:56
theoretically if I took a baby and put it in a basement it knows nothing yep
11:03
and I teach it that red is green so I show it every day a green card and I
11:08
tell it it's red for 20 years of its life okay he has no idea i let him loose
11:15
into the world he's going to go out and go "I need a red shirt." They're going to bring him a green shirt he's going to
11:21
be like "No that's red you only believe what people tell you."
11:27
Yep and on that note who really knows if what my red is is your red [ __ ] that
11:34
that's a stoner conversation yeah that is a stoner okay fair enough fair enough we're not stoned right now fair enough we should probably get really high and
11:40
have one of those oh that's a good idea we could have a stoner episode yeah i mean of course we'd be in Illinois where
11:46
it's completely legal when we we do that you just took my seriousness and made it a stoner conversation i'm sorry i wanted
11:53
to lighten the mood a little i'm not trying to lighten it i'm just trying to make people realize that the news is not
12:01
the news okay we all know people are dying in the streets every day we all
12:06
know people are getting murdered it's going to happen yep okay but what we
12:12
don't know is that when something serious happens it gets twisted by all the media
12:19
sensors yep when a crisis happens they're distracting you from
12:24
believing what you need to believe they're not giving you the real facts no they're not giving you the real facts
12:30
their narrative that's why I don't watch the news oh yeah me neither like you know why I don't watch the news why tell
12:36
me why because I'm an opinionated person on what I see in the world and I'm going
12:41
to make my own [ __ ] decisions which you need to which yes we all need to exactly what you see on the news you
12:48
can't make an opinion off that no hell no that's not even a side that's like a part of a side and I'm going to go into
12:54
this real quick i'm not going to go into the details of it but I watched something on Netflix which is a media
13:00
thing okay but it came from every angles it gave you the right wrong the wrong
13:06
right the right left i had to make my own opinion about it and that's where I went this [ __ ] is
13:14
[ __ ] stupid because if you can't make your
13:19
own decision without the media telling you what to do you're not a human you're brainwashed was that uh when they were
13:26
telling you that the letter A is sponsored for that episode oh Sesame Street yeah no actually like I was just
13:33
telling Kyle earlier like I went through focus and they taught me a lot of [ __ ]
13:39
and I'm going to go talk to these guys and they're going to look at me like I'm [ __ ] cuz you are no I don't mean to
13:44
say [ __ ] i'm sorry how could you use that word once again I'm going to offend somebody but I don't really give a [ __ ]
13:53
i didn't mean to say it it's just how I grew up
13:59
oh we're all going down i can use that excuse but yeah no I was just watching Sesame
14:04
Street with my kid and I've been through Focus program which is uh something that
14:10
helps a lot of veterans of PTSD and [ __ ] and I just went up to the VA hospital
14:15
and had a wristband wrapped around my wrist and he wanted to go play on the swing and [ __ ] so I was like "Okay cool
14:20
i'm going to get this wristband off." So I flicked it off well the wind caught it on the bottom of my shoe wasn't my
14:27
problem yeah but it got stuck with the glue on the bottom of my shoe right out in front of my toes on my [ __ ]
14:32
prosthetic leg yep and I'm having a bad day already like everything I've done to
14:38
this point has been a bad day i trying to get the battery in it pops out i'm trying to [ __ ] light a cigarette the
14:45
cigarette lighter goes [ __ ] flying these are things that I usually do with precision on an actual basis
14:53
so I'm having a bad day i'm not cool with it well
14:58
I go to walk over to my son which I call Bubbies he's over there on the other slide and I notice a little purple flat
15:04
flying around on the bottom of my shoe like what the [ __ ] it's stuck on the bottom of my shoe so I stop and I hold
15:09
on to the rail and I'm trying to reach out to this prosthetic leg with no arms
15:15
no legs trying to knock that thing off i'm getting angry cuz I can't get it off
15:22
that's sticky glue yep i wanted to be so pissed at that point
15:28
but I looked over at my son and I'm having such a bad day anyway and all of a sudden Sesame Street kicks
15:34
in my head i wonder what if let's try i go you're a stupid [ __ ]
15:42
aren't you and by when I say you're a stupid [ __ ] it's cuz I got so angry
15:48
that one thing wasn't working that I forgot to think about to try something else yeah just change you know what I'm
15:55
saying yeah you sometimes you just got to change your approach bam i put my foot on the ground and I scraped that
16:01

22:02
right you're high on your high horse i'm not high on my high horse i have an opinion that You have an opinion why do
22:08
you have that opinion K just because I think I could did you taste alcohol uh slightly slightly slightly okay just
22:16
just a little bit not that's only because your brain was washed because there's already alcohol in it and you
22:21
could be true i watched something on the internet yeah with Skittles oh I already know this i I've done this with my wife
22:28
i've done this with my wife it blew my [ __ ] mind man skittles don't have a taste guys they have a smell all in your
22:35
brain yep it's a smell they literally put a scent on it you close your nose and you eat those they don't You can't
22:42
tell a taste you You really can't i know i told that to my wife and she's like "No you're full full of shit." I was
22:48
like "Nope let's do it we're doing I watched that on you." Actually my wife showed me that and I was like "Bullshit."
22:54
I know but then I had her do it with me with the berry ones and I'd be tasting it i'm like "That's a blue one." She's like "No red." I'm like "What the
23:03
[ __ ] you are programmed your eyes and brain are programmed to teach you what
23:08
taste is." Also smell smell is a huge part five senses are connected
23:13
literally they're all connected you take one or two of them away you're [ __ ] off you're wrong yep sometimes well I
23:21
can't smell or taste and I was surprised that I [ __ ] lost that one because like I said I can smell or taste anyway
23:27
and I usually get a hint of whatever I'm eating yep but the fact that I didn't know what color it was [ __ ] you up
23:35
[ __ ] my mind up man yep oh my goodness yeah it really did cuz I'm like thinking it's a red one i'm like tastes like a
23:41
red one we'll pause sorry I had to pause um I was talking
23:46
about a red Skittle and my neighbor blew me [ __ ] completely out of the water just blew him blew me out of the water
23:53
further than that bomb did in Afghanistan but uh we lost all convers all all uh
24:01
direct where we were going that momentum momentum there you go with that conversation but um he asked me if I
24:09
wanted to work tomorrow yep so this leads me into another subject you have
24:15
no arms and legs and you're working tomorrow shut the [ __ ] up Kyle let me get in my segue okay segue away
24:22
[ __ ] god yo this leads me into my other segue he asked me if I wanted to work tomorrow i have no arms and legs thanks
24:28
for ruining it huh i did surprise [ __ ] screwed up like a
24:34
bomb cuz nobody knew that was leg he's asking me if I want to work tomorrow and yeah I'm mowing lawns on a [ __ ] rider
24:43
yep but I don't have to no wait so it's not a push mower no it's not a push mark
24:50
okay i'm on a rider we're cutting common grounds like [ __ ] that's [ __ ] like 8 acres damn but the problem is is he
24:58
can't find any [ __ ] decent help in the younger generation
25:04
to [ __ ] come work for him how much is he offering to pay
25:09
he's paying me 13 to$14 an hour that's fair and I've already I'm all I'm doing
25:14
is riding a lot lawnmower hell yeah the only reason I'm doing it and I've already told them he only had to pay me
25:20
five it gets me out of the [ __ ] house but these kids don't want labor jobs no
25:26
you know what they want what free money hell yeah why wouldn't they because that's what they know exactly the only
25:33
reason they know that is because of the way the society's happened right now yep everybody wants a [ __ ] handout yep
25:41
now I feel bad saying that because I'm on the receiving end of a handout but I think I earned that hand
25:47
out i I would agree with you i mean you gave it I mean it cost you an arm and leg if they told me they were going to
25:53
cut me off okay fine you better goddamn believe I'm going to find a job hell
25:58
yeah i'm already doing lawns for free money
26:04
yep and getting paid by the I'm working without having to work and these kids
26:10
nowadays don't want to work without three hands up yep does that make sense am I just rambling uh just a little but
26:18
it does make sense it does and I don't really want to get deep into this because I don't want to make it a [ __ ] political episode or where
26:24
someone doesn't want to listen because they don't agree with our ideologies or whatever yeah but I think sometimes
26:31
people need to open up their eyes and realize like I said with the media before you're being brainwashed
26:39
and taught to think what you need to think by the media yep
26:45
it's crazy the lack of [ __ ] hardworking people are going down the
26:50
drain oh for sure and I don't want to say it but I think
26:56
it was technology i think I know I know in math class we
27:02
weren't even allowed to use a computer or calculator nowadays they get to use their computer
27:07
and their calculator that's crazy so what happens when the grid breaks down and there's no internet no Google well I
27:15
could tell you this i have a solar powered calculator so I'd be fine [ __ ] your solar power what happens when all
27:20
the energyy's gone and you have no computer to help you think what you need to think
27:26
then I won't think because you're dead i know you are dead i'm programmed to think you have no skills
27:32
thanks i'm just telling you the truth hey man I've got skills i can light a fire i can skin a deer i can I can hunt
27:40
i'm not saying you [ __ ] i'm talking about the generations coming i know but I feel attacked okay you know that's your problem if you attacked that's
27:47
because you took it personally i did take it personally that's your fault not mine yeah well I'm taking it personally
27:52
make you angry yeah I know i wasn't angry i just I took it as an attack somewhere deep inside you felt
27:58
personally responsible for that it might have been when you said you and you looked right at me say you you did you
28:04
said you now I'm pointing at you in my nose and I'm coming out of my chair it's getting crazy in here but no I feel like
28:11
these children growing up nowadays if there was ever a [ __ ] EMP if anyone ever wanted to win a war all they'd have
28:18
to do is drunk a nucle a nuclear EMP on a [ __ ] country blow off all their
28:24
[ __ ] communication all of their [ __ ] internet and then what happens you're in the stone age yep guess what
28:30
happens what no one knows how to build a fire you're right no one knows how to
28:37
[ __ ] go get food yep exactly you've just killed the whole continent by knocking out their internet yep because
28:44
they don't have any skills besides technology based that's the problem dude
28:51
that's the problem yep and and when I say that's the problem is because people
28:56
say that you need to know history so it doesn't repeat itself but
29:01
no one's going back and looking at all the history whether it doesn't matter what weapons we have nowadays it's just
29:08
how it's done yep and how the evolvement happens within a country to where it gets annihilated
29:15
just because we're this [ __ ] first world country when we think we got everything figured out doesn't mean
29:20
we're a superpower exactly cuz guess what there's a third world country somewhere trying to figure out how to
29:26
knock us the [ __ ] down hell yeah they are and once they do we're [ __ ]
29:31
screwed screwed you know why why let's go back to Greece okay okay greece was
29:38
one of the greatest nations listen ladies and gentlemen you're going back to school you're getting history history
29:44
greece was the second greatest nation behind us to ever have a longstanding civilization really yes and if you look
29:52
at it guess what happened what socrates Plato and all them you turned into socialism because you thought you were
29:59
good enough to not deal with anybody you dropped your army you dropped your guard
30:05
and guess what happened you lost bye-bye Greece peace out peace someone said [ __ ]
30:11
you and some barbarians came in and raped your [ __ ] hell yeah right you want to protect this country
30:18
teach them about history teach them about what to [ __ ] do and make sure your army is strong hell yeah i mean I
30:26
believe in world peace but until Russia believes in world peace that ain't happening exactly or
30:33
until [ __ ] Iraq believes in Russia world peace it ain't happening try to
30:39
tell a Muslim that [ __ ] our shit's the right way to go i know uh have you seen the pictures of was it like 1970s
30:47
Iran no I didn't before they became a u you
30:52
know a Muslim nation dude Afghanistan has been in war since 1970 i know i mean
30:58
the the cities that they used to have were beautiful like they were majestic
31:04
and and then [ __ ] happened people took over it like destroyed the country
31:12
see here's my thought and I know it'll never happen but I wish more people would think like me but you getting into
31:19
the other side of the world you just don't know yeah of course like if everybody would just leave everybody alone and deal with your own [ __ ] and
31:26
not worry about what someone else is doing in their own home and not hurting anybody we would have a greater [ __ ]
31:33
world uh what what is the saying i heard I heard it's like here I'm going to say it right now gay marriage who gives a
31:41
[ __ ] if they want to marry they get married whatever happened to separation and religion and state exactly
31:47
yeah i you know I might or may not believe in what it says in the Bible but
31:54
when we started this nation it was difference between religion and state
31:59
yep but now they're bringing the Bible and saying you can't marry a man because it's against the [ __ ] religion of the
32:04
Bible so now they're that's just [ __ ] old England right now yep
32:11
i don't know like I said what I believe and what you believe are two different things but we have to figure out a way
32:17
to [ __ ] make it to where we bind our differences and make it work agreed
32:24
uh there was a somebody describing uh you don't look at other people like
32:31
you don't look at them jealously you the only thing you do is to look to make sure that they have enough in their own food in their own bowl no people don't
32:38

34:54
goes back to the NATO thing yeah yeah you're right we are in a crisis in this world with AIDS and HIV and
35:02
it blows my mind that the government can come up with a [ __ ] godamn thing to
35:09
pop you out of a [ __ ] heroin overdose which is Narcan yep but they
35:16
can't come up with a cure for cancer oh cuz you don't you know why it's perp profit yeah let's say there's no profit
35:23
in curing cancer why do you think it took so long for marijuana to become legal pharma wanted their hand in it yep
35:30
i don't know man that's just my ideologically by not listening to the news and doing my own [ __ ] studying i
35:38
would agree there's no profit in curing diseases no there's not it's only
35:43
prolonging that's where the profit is no they don't want you to live if you have cancer [ __ ] you what are you talking
35:49
about man they want their money from the insurance for a [ __ ] drug that probably costs only $2 to make yeah but
35:56
it cost Did you know chemo only has like a 4% rate of uh of working chemo
36:06
i don't care there's a cure for cancer Kyle i know it's oxygen they're just not telling us it's oxygen you know why why
36:12
no oxygen kills you Kyle you've been breathing it since you were born i know it slowly kills you well it does in the
36:18
long run i know that's what I always tell people like "You're gonna die." I'm like "Yeah it's gonna be oxidation." See what oxidation does to metal that's what
36:25
it's doing to the inside of your body i'm just saying like these pharmaceutical companies that's where all the
36:31
politicians get their lobbyist monies from you're leading me right into where I want to go Kyle i love this it's where
36:38
all these lobbyists get their money from and then they give it to the Democrats or the [ __ ] Republicans yep they give
36:44
it to somebody so if you're not on the Democratic party and believe everything that they believe in you're out or the
36:50
Republican and if you're not on the Republican party and everything that they believe in you're out
36:57
so whatever happened to have my [ __ ] own ideas it disappear why do you think Trump won
37:03
because he's an independent he believes in both he comes up with his own [ __ ] ideas yep this [ __ ] government needs
37:11
to be stripped of everybody that's in there and all the corruption no more lobbyists no more
37:17
money we're in a society that has [ __ ] digital media it should not cost $16 million to run for president all you
37:25
got to do is press a button on YouTube yep [ __ ] those
37:30
guys why do we need 90year-old guys up there telling us what to do what happened in 1910 hell yeah just saying
37:38
everybody wants to make a difference but yet we still have people older than us running this [ __ ] country not Not
37:44
just older way older way bernie Sanders wanted to be president he's almost 80 he was like
37:50
alive before the [ __ ] first colored television came into play yep like like [ __ ] what does he know biden was v voted
37:57
on Jim Crow he doesn't even know how to run his iPhone nope listen ladies and gentlemen the world is
38:03
changing and everybody's bitching about it and no one's doing nothing about it because we still have [ __ ] 1950
38:10
running a 2002 [ __ ] world yep it's the same thing with the VA it's
38:16
ridiculous all the other hospitals are running 2012 and the VA is still in 1950 it's like when are you going to
38:22
update when are you going to realize that the old ideals don't work anymore yep the Constitution is great
38:30
it is it's worked for 300 years does it need some tweaking yes for sure that's
38:36
what our amendments are for exactly when was the last amendment made
38:41
i couldn't tell you i can't tell you either but it was a long [ __ ] time ago Kyle are you sure way back in 1950 i
38:48
guarantee it i don't know google it [ __ ] yeah let's Google this um if I'm right you take a
38:54
shot okay you know you're right I'll take a shot yeah yeah that's fair we haven't made an amendment to the
39:01
Constitution in over [ __ ] 200 or I don't know since 1950 at least if it was
39:07
even 1950 it could have been like 1920 man
39:16
let's see ask Google when was the last amendment may 7th Constitution may 7th
39:21
1992 what was it uh with no time limit or ratification the 27th Amendment was
39:28
ratified in May 7th 1992 wait that's Michigan yeah [ __ ]
39:34
Michigan i'm talking about the Constitution of the United
39:43
States ladies and gentlemen here's one thing you need to know the government was not put in place to tell you what to
39:48
do they're there to make sure infrastructure goes the way it needs to go they should have no [ __ ] say over
39:57
any kind of laws or any kind of thing without your
40:02
say you should be able to vote on everything that they're voting on that's why you hire a representative
40:10
yeah may May 5th 1992 what was the amendment uh 27th amendment here let me see uh
40:18
27th amendment 1992 the constitution of the United States that required any change to the rate of compensation for
40:24
members of the US uh Congress to take effective only after sub subsequent
40:30
election in the house of representatives commonly known as the congressional compensation act of 1789
40:38
the 27th amendment was actually the second of 12 amendments proposed by the
40:44
first Congress in 1789 so what I just read was a bunch of old people made a decision and we didn't have a say in it
40:50
yep right the 27th amendment I said 2000 Kyle I'll take a shot on that but let's
40:57
go back to the next one after that Kyle let's see how long it was before the 27th amendment
41:04
okay yeah 1992 yeah that's 1992 i mean I didn't know that happened i didn't learn
41:10
that in school no neither did I and once again I didn't have a say but I
41:16
was younger when was the 26th amendment put into place
41:25
added uh July 1st 1971 see what I'm saying yep see how long it
41:32
was before we even made a change to the [ __ ] country and what was that it's probably something stupid actually it
41:37
was something really good i think was it i think in my opinion right now 1971 it probably was it was probably like
41:43
something with to do with civil rights and [ __ ] like that actually uh it might it might but the just the brief right
41:49
here it says the 1992 one sounded stupid oh yeah yeah yeah it was giving their
41:54
the Congress power over the Yeah um is uh the constitution of lowering voting
42:01
age to 18 is what that I will agree to that I will agree to that 100% you know why
42:08
because the drinking age is 21 yep you're sending guys off to war at 18
42:14
they they should be able to vote well they should be able to vote and drink oh yeah oh for sure 110% [ __ ] that if
42:21
you're going to give a a kid enough power to vote to make a nation change but you're count telling him he can't
42:27
have alcohol and he's going to go die [ __ ] you exactly that's [ __ ] and
42:32
that's why I loved my battalion commander James McDonald no no incriminating evidence here no no
42:39
incriminating evidence i loved him he was a good guy he was a great guy like
42:45
when you're in the barracks you have an alcohol you're only allowed to have six beers in your fridge blah blah blah okay
42:52
now what I'm saying he did probably not be right to the [ __ ] government or
42:58
whatever but he knew in his mind the right thing to do all right now I'm not saying there's
43:05
a bunch of underage drinking or whatever that's I'm leaving that out because I don't want to get James McDunn in trouble but he gave us that were 21 and
43:13
older the opportunity to have a good time because he knew where we were going and he knew we might not come back
43:19
exactly so to me that's a sign of a leader yes like hey guys we've trained
43:27
we've got only four weeks left have a [ __ ] good time exactly yeah and it wasn't only he
43:35
didn't do it at the beginning of the work it was at the end we had already trained we'd already done everything we needed to do we had four weeks left to
43:41
get our [ __ ] in order sign all these [ __ ] wills and all that [ __ ] he's like "Go for it
43:47
man go for it i would rather have you guys party right here at the barracks than go out in town and get [ __ ]
43:53
killed by a drinking and driving accident or something like that." Yeah that's a leader exactly he knew what he
43:59
needed to do and it was amazing i I a lot of people might disagree with me but if you know
44:06
your men and you know how to corral them and doesn't matter if you know how to
44:13
run your men because you know them so well they will follow you yes and I
44:18
learned that the hard way in Afghanistan i didn't think I was going
44:24
to be a good leader yeah i come to find out these men would still follow me to hell and back and I don't even have arms
44:31
and legs what was the moment that you thought that you actually made it as a leader
44:37
after I got blown up really yeah what what made you think that you were a decent leader well because I was
44:45
forced to look back on everything that I did through Afghanistan and the fact that I was happier that it
44:51
happened to me and not my men made me a good leader okay I can agree with that
44:59
every decision I made up to there got them all home so how can I argue that exactly i might
45:06
have got blown up i might have made a bad decision you still made it home though but I didn't put my men in that
45:11
decision mhm you know I never would have done that in a dangerous area i'm not
45:16
going to go make them do something I don't want to do i don't want to live with that
45:22
and people say "Well leaders are supposed to stay to behind so they can recontrol." No that's why you train the men under you so if you get [ __ ] hit
45:30
they know what to do exactly and my men knew perfectly they all came home at two
45:35
months later after I got blown up no problems i knew I trained them
45:41
well and they can never take that away from me like I said people think they know what
45:47
a leader is but I've seen very many shitty leaders in the Marine Corps where it's like "Do as I say do it do it."
45:53
It's like "No dude that doesn't work man." Like you can't lead like that no
45:59
you just can't you can't cuz now you got guys wanting Well I had guys wanting to
46:04
kill me before we got to Afghanistan but what for because I trained them
46:12
that That's how you know you trained them well right i mean I thought they thought I was going to be there and be their friend and give them cupcakes no
46:19
said they wanted to frag you yeah my buddy Camaro he ended up being a squad leader after I got out he was one of my
46:27
boots and a boot is a guy that comes in underneath your last deployment and you trained them so that's a boot but when
46:34
we got to Afghanistan we went through like three or four five seven firefights he came up to me he goes "Cobra nicely."
46:40
And when he says Cobra nicely he's like a he's like a Mexican Ray Romano okay he
46:46
looks just like Ray Romano he talks just like Ray Romano but he's brown so it's
46:52
like I can't take him seriously he's like like Yeah it's like I wanted to stab you i was like "What?" He goes "I
46:59
wanted to stab you while we were training." I like what the [ __ ] are you talking about Felix he goes "No really i
47:06
I couldn't take it anymore
47:12
oh my god i got to get him on one of these podcast dude yeah you do but he's like I couldn't take it anymore i was
47:17
going to stab you but now I realize what you did is what you did for a reason i was like yeah [ __ ] go eat your food
47:24
i mean I made great relationships with these guys and the hardest part was while you're training them trying to
47:30
keep the separation between friend and leader yep you know you don't want to be a dick to where you push them away but
47:38
you also don't want to [ __ ] be so much of a friend that they don't want to listen exactly so it's a fine line that
47:44
you have to find and I navigated it very well good and I I I'm not more proud
47:51
than I could ever be like I said I brought 12 men into that [ __ ] war and I came 12 men home [ __ ] the goddamn government's
47:59
agenda yep once you land it's the man on the left and the man on the right yep it
48:05
doesn't matter what they're telling you to do it's like "Fuck you you're not the one down here taking bullets and
48:11
grenades and [ __ ] bombs." Exactly so I mean the fact that I came home with
48:16
all of my men and I don't want people that listen to this to think that because they didn't they're less of a
48:23
leader because that's not true that is definitely not true at all if you lost a
48:29
man in combat that does not make you less of a man of a leader it just makes the circumstances different than what I
48:34
had to go through yep you know that's all it is mhm so when I meet guys that
48:42
have been through war and [ __ ] we can talk we can talk all day long i could talk to them easily than I can civilians
48:49
but the only people that I'm really going to understand are the ones who live the nightmare with me oh for sure
48:55
like we both went through a nightmare but our nightmares aren't the same i can understand yours i know what you're
49:02
going through but I can't live it with you because I wasn't there
49:08
you know like I have empathy but when a civilian tries to talk to me I'm like I don't have any empathy for you dude i
49:14
don't but when I'm talking like it's weird for me because like I just said if another soldier's talker or marine or
49:20
whatever is telling me about his combat I can only relate to it i can't
49:27
be there with him and that's the hard part that's why I rely on my men so much
49:33
that's why I try to when I go to focus tell these men to try to reach out to your men because they're the only ones who
49:41
understand exactly what you went through i mean I could have been in war
49:49
with a guy that was up north but he doesn't understand exactly what I
49:54
[ __ ] had to live through it might be similar but he wasn't there mhm you know
49:59
what I'm Does that make sense yeah no it does i I definitely see where you're coming from at this point and that's why like
50:05
me and my squad and my platoon I've heard pe other squads and platoon say that we are the closest [ __ ] platoon
50:11
they've ever seen like we get together anytime we can we call each other like
50:17
we made it a family in 22 Fox Company and that's just what it is man i
50:24
mean yeah we're growing apart now we're getting older but you are pretty old no
50:29
Kyle I'm only 10 don't touch my wiener
50:37
again but yeah I mean you know cuz this is the way I look at it and I'm sorry if
50:43
I'm rambling off course but you've got me on a [ __ ] projection that I want people to know and I was on the West Coast when I
50:51
got out of the Marine Corps and over there uh there's a lot of [ __ ] to do a
50:56
lot of [ __ ] to do you got Camp Pendleton Pacific Beach Orange County you can go wherever the [ __ ] you want
51:03
okay so these guys they train all week and then when they get off they disappear so they're not really making
51:10
friends with anybody they're just working together exactly
51:16
and this is where I compare the East Coast to the West Coast
51:21
because I've been on the West Coast i've seen it on the east coast there ain't [ __ ] [ __ ] to do nothing you ain't
51:29
going nowhere so guess what you do you hang out on the barracks with the guys that you're [ __ ] supposed to be with
51:35
all day long punch each other in the face wake up in the morning say I'm sorry and do it again exactly
51:42
you throw [ __ ] dollar bills out with a [ __ ] fisher pole and watch idiots chase it across the [ __ ] common
51:48
ground that's what you do like there's nothing to do out there dude
51:53
walmart there's Walmart Texas Roadhouse and tattoo parlors that's it i've got to ask have you done that with the fishing
51:59
rod at Dollar yeah that's why I said it actually another [ __ ] unit came walking through our common ground one
52:05
time and we were trying to teach the guys uh call for fire and we had a [ __ ] balloon a water balloon
52:13
launcher let's just say that the battalion commander was not very happy but it was fun yeah so this battalion's
52:21
walking through our [ __ ] quadrant and I was like "Get the boots." Neil's like "What?" I like "Get the
52:27
boots." So we were just learning about Call for Fire so I I thought this was a
52:32
great opportunity yeah yeah for sure so I'm like "Hey how far are they?" He's
52:37
like "100 meters." I'm like "Okay this is 100 meters here 200 meters left or right 100 meters." So I I judge that
52:44
equally when I let the balloon go that balloon go
52:50
and land right in the middle of this [ __ ] battalion i'd be like "Call for fire what do you want to do call for
52:55
adjustments?" So we're launching these balloons into another [ __ ] battalion that's trying to get through our [ __ ]
53:01
common ground they don't like it that's why I said the battalion commander was not very happy he wouldn't talk to ours
53:06
but then I had to explain to him that it was a [ __ ] training exercise so I didn't get in trouble very much but he's
53:14
kind of like "Don't do it again." I was like "It's training exercise Cole." I'm all sorry
53:20
i mean how often do you get to take advantage of that opportunity like never never like I said you on on the West
53:27
Coast you go to fun on the East Coast you make your own exactly and that makes
53:33
a stronger bond between the units I think because you're stuck with each other all day every day 247 you cannot
53:42
leave each other at all unless you go to the strip club and everybody follows you so it's like [ __ ] what am I gonna do now
53:49
i'm gonna try to beat you up so I can have the stripper you probably all know them by names and
53:55
you know oh man i've watched Have we had AJ on the show yeah we did yeah we did we've had George on the show yes they
54:02
fought each other about whether we should get McDonald's or Burger King man like we're in one car together and
54:07
they're punching each other in the face whether or not we should get Burger King or McDonald's like that's what happened
54:13
but you would wake up in the morning and go "Sorry dude like I didn't mean it you know cuz you have nothing you're
54:20
you're stuck with each other exactly and there's nothing worse than having to say you're sorry that is the hardest thing
54:26
to do for any human being i still struggle with it i struggle with it as
54:32
well because you know what saying you're sorry means no what tell me you're wrong
54:39
you're right i'm wrong no I'm not right because I don't want you to say I'm sorry i'm
54:44
sorry i love you i love you i love you what time are we at i don't want to tell you why because we're keep going [ __ ]
54:52
Exactly no Kyle we got to cut these short man uh we're at 54 54 i I think
