[ChristiTutionalist Politics podcast begin Show intro]

Welcome to ChristiTutionalist Politics podcast aka CTP in association with TheLibertyBeacon.com and I am your host Joseph M Lenard and that's L E N A R D CTP is your no muss no fuss just me you And occasional guest type podcast as Graham Norton would say let's get on with the show

[ChristiTutionalist Politics podcast - Segment 1]

JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): Hey gang, just a brief intro into music weeks. Here they are now. I was also considering going down the list of all the people that you see over the music weeks to be part of each episode. Let you know who's coming or who may have been or what not. The list has grown too big to really go into here. I don't want to take that much time. Music weeks thankfully has grown into a pretty big deal so it's grown a lot more than just the one music week. It originally was going to start out as into multiple weeks now. Let's go ahead and get into this particular days. Music weeks episodes and I'm trying to drop them Monday through Friday each week of music weeks. Hello everybody welcome to another episode of Christitutul's Politics Podcast but nothing to do with faith or politics today. Music weeks continues and before I introduce my guests for the benefit of the transcript and those listening on audio only, the music concert shirt I dug up for this episode of music weeks is a Queens Reich. I don't know if you could see that the logo is kind of small but at any rate yeah I'm trying to dig up old concert shirts to wear during the discussions to be in the spirit of music week. At any rate I'm babbling now so I can't do our guest. Kristi Jakes is thankfully she asked her before we hit record she corrected me because I'd got it wrong because it spelled J-A-C-U-E-S but pronounced Jakes so welcome to the show Kristi.
KRISTI JACQUES: Thank you so much for having me I'm glad to be here. And also we'll
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): get into it. My audience knows I have health issues. People seeing on the behind the scenes video can see you're wearing the oxygen holes but for benefit of audio and transcript that descriptor but beyond that let's do the usual proverbial normal first question. Who the hell is Kristi Jakes? Where were you born raised where are you now that sort of thing? Well I'm
KRISTI JACQUES: honestly still trying to find out who I am. That's a lifelong journey. I'm born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina and I now live in Myrtle Beach but I've been here close to 30 years now. So I guess that makes me a Myrtle Beach local.
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): Okay well are you wearing one of your own concert shirts or are you wearing somebody? I could see it looks like a concert shirt is that? It is. One of my
KRISTI JACQUES: favorite artists the one who inspired me to get back to music. His name is Miles
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): Kennedy. Okay shout out to Miles or for those listening in Canada kilometers. But I'm pumped. By my audience knows I can never pass the lame pun either. So hello kilometers I mean Miles. Hope you'll be tuning in for the episode to get your shout out from Kristi. And yet another example of I don't script shows we hit record and hey the let the silliest begin. So now we almost for benefit of the audience almost had to cancel this podcast or this record session because you reached out yesterday that you might have had a health scare pop up and but yet you're okay. So before we get to the music I guess since I'm on that now I'm doing it backwards I was gonna do the music first but now that we're on our shared health issues you're
KRISTI JACQUES: feeling okay today. I am I got a really good night's sleep and I was able to
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): relax. So that helps a lot. I hear you I suffer c-fids among many things and yeah fatigue is always a part of that and I've never get enough because it's almost a misnomer that people judge my character based on this show or AKA jokes to Joe on Savage Dunn filtered because when they see me I'm like is this guy on cocaine? I'm good for short bursts of energy right but then oh I need an app. Absolutely. So can the inspired you let's explore that
KRISTI JACQUES: background a little. Well when I was growing up in Charleston I had a musical family pretty much. I was kind of embedded in the local scene. I worked in a music store. I took guitar lessons, vocal lessons, sang in different, choral projects, did as much as I could and then when I moved to Myrtle Beach I put the guitar down and life took over. Then 2020 happened and I didn't have anywhere to go or anywhere to be or do anything and went down the YouTube rabbit hole and found some of Miles's acoustic stuff and I was like yeah I remember being able to do some of that and that's what got me started again.
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): Uh-huh. So that you re had you officially recorded anything before that? No. I did a
KRISTI JACQUES: couple songs in Charleston but those recordings no longer exist. Hey that's
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): like me I recorded on the old reel the reel 8 track type system tunes back in the late 70s, early 80s, long gone never digitized. I've got a couple on an old cassette tape somewhere but they'd be crapped to digitize off of that and put up so I don't bother. I stick with writing my books and doing this show instead. So I'm glad well like you joked and aren't we all still discovering ourselves but you kind of refound yourself with music. Exactly. Uh-huh. Do you have an album out now or forthcoming?
KRISTI JACQUES: I have since 2020 or 2021 when I started back with writing and trying to I found a good guitar teacher. I've released two albums and um probably a dozen singles.
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): It's a lot different today than way back like in the 70s and 80s my dad had another junior in the polka kings. They were actually good enough to get a record deal with Don Ho Records. Uh-huh. And uh you know pretty popular they toured all over you know west east of the Mississippi. So they were pretty good. They had a record deal three records can still find them today. I was never good enough for it. Today you know I don't want to demean anyone or anything but today almost anyone unfortunately can throw up a website with some stuff to download for 99 cents versus someone who actually has real musical background like you. Yeah you kind of get lost in the shuffle. Yeah there's my point being in that is the competition. It's like being an author also with self-publishing. Anyone can throw up something you know unedited completely grammatically a mess. Almost unreadable but it's too late if you've already bought it. Because yeah there's all that competition because anyone can upload a book to Amazon for free. Doesn't mean it's worth anything but as opposed to having uh building yourself a track record now.
KRISTI JACQUES: Yeah yeah I get there's there's an ungodly amount of songs released every day on Spotify. It's crazy. Yep yeah. So I'm trying to stand out in that crowd as. Yep. I'm still navigating the whole business world the music business part. I'd rather just do
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): the music not the music business but yeah I hear yeah I understand uh and I will uh when I email you again not exactly sure what day this will broadcast during music weeks but when the time comes let me make myself a note CCMTS. Michael Stover that's Michael Stover's uh agency. He handles musical talent. I'll copy him as an introduction then maybe you can have some discussions with him and pulling off some of that business side. That would be great. I would love that. Yeah I hear yeah I do I understand yeah the the creative side versus oh that dug-on paperwork side and oh and the taxes side and and social media. Oh there you go yeah to to relate uh my first internet. I've been writing like I said wrote and record music since the 70s but I've also been writing story short stories poetry a radio play I won CJOM for a radio play contest they had uh novels novelts full novels so my first foray into international books I didn't want to just go with alone so I did go through an assisted publishing firm illumified media and I am grateful to them so you know that way I had mentors to learn with and indeed for a year somebody there handled my social media for me even though I've been I'm a former IT guy so I've been on social media since most knew what social media was. I was online before there was such a thing as the internet even but that's whole other topic and story but yeah so and she would you know create images or short reels uh it's like oh okay that's that's how to do that and then after the year I could take over because I'm on like 15 plus social media platforms and could just copy and paste the same thing several places but as you say it's a learning curve oh definitely yeah not one that I really like right that's the other thing too I mean it's just the time but again juggling 15 is as easily as juggling one if you're basically copying and pasting across it and I go into in my how to write a book and get it published book a marketing section about this about social media and I don't get people saying yeah I'm on X or I'm on Gator or I'm on me we spree we whatever and that's the only I don't get why they want to self limit themselves and especially someone like you in an entertainment uh sector of society you've got to self promote best best advertisement is a word of mouth if you could get others to do it of course but the only way you're going to get people tuned into you is you reaching out getting them to tune in them and say oh how great wonderful christy jacks music is and then it's like the old panty commercial right tell two people they tell two people they tell pretty soon you got a movement but the movement is almost as painful as a movement on on intended sorry potty you worry but I can't I just cannot pass the lame puns but you're kind of feeling that right it's yeah it's a hassle it's a pain literal and figurative in a way dealing with social media times yeah so since we're on social
KRISTI JACQUES: media what platforms are you on? Facebook Instagram YouTube TikTok and I think that's it LinkedIn
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): yeah so many others out there too yeah consider joining them and again it's just a simple copy paste enter yeah don't limit your reach uh so many other people out there trying like we said the competition trying to hold you back we can't hold ourselves back but you mentioned TikTok I find that funny because they're kicking me off I've had three different accounts there it's like okay whatever moving on not worth my time but TikTok is the in thing right now right it is so do you take a little snippets of your songs to share on TikTok I do yeah and again trying to navigate
KRISTI JACQUES: the the algorithms for each for each platform is crazy well yes that's different that's the
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): thing if you to actually dig down into it and try to indeed play again music music pun intended play I'm fake strumming the guitar here for those on audio only but yeah now play their game with their rules to get your best exposure I'm kind of lazy in that way it's like and like I said I go I like to say I'm going for quality over quantity but I'm 15 platforms again I'm just putting it there and those who come across me come across me like you I agree I don't have time to figure out the games all the hoops you want me to jump through right yeah I agree completely so are you working on an album now or what is do you have a working title for it or if you don't have anything immediately it works what is your most recent well I just released a song
KRISTI JACQUES: a week ago called change but right now I'm just doing releasing singles every seven weeks just because it's a lot cheaper to release a single than it is to do an album
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): yes yeah and a lot of artists that I talked to indeed know again that's just kind of way the game is played now you you put the songs out there for 99 cents you get four or five of them selling really well then you know okay I can press an album here out of those because they've got broad enough appeal but yeah putting out an album with a hope and hope one or two hits as opposed to testing the waters with them first it's just smarter yeah absolutely I had my first
KRISTI JACQUES: two albums I still have you know a couple hundred copies here of the CDs collecting dust yeah pretty
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): much that's okay well so my oh yeah yes open an Etsy shop and tries to sell some money I mentioned eBay because they are up with on eBay the other day I found of my dad's 10-year-old jr. in the polka kings and eight-trat cake somebody was somebody who's like oh your audience is pretty small there they got a like polka music they've got to still have an eight-trat player that went out of fashion ages ago I still have one but most people don't that's crazy oh so I'm not ready to wrap it up yet but normally I wrap it up with you have a website let's get that in early where where or do you just use Spotify for people to download your tunes do you have a
KRISTI JACQUES: personal or a professional website I do it's christy jakes music calm
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): okay making a note music calm and I have to double check that oh
the transcript whatever Buzzsprout is where my show originates it goes out to 20 plus audio platforms and five video but the audio version is housed at Buzzsprout if you go to Buzzsprout get the transcript from there you will see it's more than just a transcript of what we're saying at the beginning there will be links and in the extended related links section I will of course have christy jakes music calm listed and again jakes is how it's pronounced it spelled like jock in french j a q u e s yes thank you ues oh did I forget to see we did oh j a c q u e s but jakes yes and christy I get right christitucials politics christy could be c h r i s t y but no it's k r i s t i so let's make sure people know how to spell that correctly also i like to be difficult sometimes well i think you can blame your parents for that yeah that's true oh what other you you mentioned uh uh uh Kennedy of miles yeah the kilometers joke how could I forget name association and jokes can help and that just helped me to remember miles this first name miles Kennedy was one perhaps your biggest influence what other artists or groups or whatever also provide an influence although and you also said you came from a musical family so your family itself is is a we're mentors in an influence my father had the most beautiful baritone voice
KRISTI JACQUES: he didn't use it except for singing in church at the in the pews he didn't sing in the choir but i would sit next to him and just loved his voice my brother was an amazing musician guitar player singer songwriter and i always looked up to him and when he passed in 94 i ended up with two of his guitars and you know they're up on my wall today you you don't play them there are keepsakes for you now i play one of them on occasion i haven't touched the the classical guitar in a long time yeah
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): yeah so we've not really technically gone in yet and people may not have bothered to go to christy jocks jacks jakes oh i'm scaring up christy jakes smell like jocks christy jakes music.com to know what is your general music genre i kind of call myself a musical mutt
KRISTI JACQUES: i'm a little bit of everything you know my dad made me listen to country music every morning before school not my choice but i grew up listening to you know like whale engenings and really nelson
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): and i heard all that growing up too yep conway 20 oh yeah George jones yep Vern dozden for those who remember that name Freddy fender yeah
KRISTI JACQUES: till my next tear drop falls my brother was a big fan of Dan fobelberg oh my lord Dan yeah dim crochee and then i'm a child of the eighties so some of the the really powerful female artists like pat vennatar and part they really impacted me but there's so many out there now yeah and i look to them all for inspiration yeah that's great again
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): why limit yourself right you're at a buffet why limit yourself to the one item yeah so you'll hear
KRISTI JACQUES: a little bit of country twang and some of my songs some harder rock some more folksy music
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): excuse me so it's a little bit of everything yeah yeah that's not only do i do lame puns i do lame analogies like the buffet although i like to like to joke i'm far too clever for metaphors i do meta sixes oh no i'm laughing she's cringing either way it works as a joke oh goodness i i know this is like asking what's your favorite child but do you have a favorite song you like performing mosters well to be honest i haven't performed because of the healthy
KRISTI JACQUES: shoes yeah yeah i sit here in my home studio and my producer puts the songs on a on a scratch track and he sends it to me and i put the vocals over it and then he turns it into
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): something magical all right uh oh again the same what's your favorite baby do you do you let me rephrase it do you have one you're most proud of because of the lyrical or musical or somehow and you use the word magic it magically came together way beyond your expectation that that's kind of the top of your list well there is one called in plain sight and it's
KRISTI JACQUES: it's telling people that we all need to work together we have to do better we have to come together to make things brighter and better for the world so i'm very proud of that song and probably one of my favorites is called mama i love you and needless to say it's my mother's favorite song also wow what a shock right
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): right like my sister's favorite song of dad's is daddy's little girl that he wrote for her so well i i got short shifted there i i never had a song written about me so it's like maybe there is one you still know the connection it's possible i could have been the muse or the inspiration for something uh yeah who knows right since since we're on muse we've discussed mentors do you have in the green room we you mentioned your dog is there we kind of thought your dog would chime in what what's your dog's name her name is nova oh oh like from the planet of the apes thing
KRISTI JACQUES: i adopted her a little over a year ago from a rescue in charlotte called bullies to the rescue and she's a little french bulldog she's barking in the other room right now oh okay we expected her to do
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): that during the show but i'm not picking her up i'm not sure if the audience will then but i love one for baby's chime in during an episode but in the business nova amuse an inspiration in some sort of way i do you said she was a rescue obviously somebody didn't care for her so there's a song there about caring for the discarded yes i haven't thought about that yet but i could do that thank you very much there yeah i i expect a writing credit i'm just kidding
KRISTI JACQUES: honestly when i when she first came here she didn't like any music at all if i'd start to play or sing she'd get up and leave the room so i was starting to take it personally
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): oh i'm laughing so hard i'm coughing now yeah but it grew on her huh yeah yeah well maybe you know it's although i take it your music is a lot more calm than tim and baby she came from a very loud place and music just kind of was just noise to her till she came to appreciate it coming out of
KRISTI JACQUES: mama yeah she was a um a breeder dog and overworked but she's got the life now let me tell you
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): yeah most rescues are that way i said i we used to have dogs growing up but then we kind of became a cat family because we got lazy cats are a lot easier to deal with and you know all my cats were strays my now ex-wife though uh we tried to get a stray dog and you know it wasn't properly diagnosed it was we called it snickers i don't they they very cruelly just referred to it in the shelter as bad leg because it had a bad leg somebody clearly didn't take good care of it or abused it or what not and we wanted to give snickers a home but clearly that dog needed to be with like an elderly lone person in a home that would be there all the time but younger people who had to go to jobs he leaves the thing home it got panicky it chewed up the couch so then my wife wanted a regular store bought dog and i love cyber as we call them because i'm a former IT guy Siberian husky so cross between cyber's face and Siberian husky cyber loved him to death but i prefer sounds like you too giving a rescue because they so much more need the help and like you said our cats yeah so spoiled they lived a long long time longer than the average because once they came to us so spoiled like you're saying nova is at your house yes
KRISTI JACQUES: yeah she's definitely spoiled she owns me right yeah i i know what you're saying there and anyone
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): with a former stray fur baby knows yeah you didn't pick them they picked you yeah and i i i love that idea of that song that i suggested and perhaps whether you could call it nova or not people wouldn't understand it by the title then but you'd certainly dedicate it to nova and all all the stress that i i who i'm rambling i'm going who's the one that does all the animal to need our help come not molesome that uh i i loved her as a singer but frankly the fair McGlock on there we go yes you're right you got it it's like every time i hear her voice i'm to the point of annoyance all right give it a rest i am doing my part and we do need more to do a part in helping uh you know abandon animals of all kinds including horses and pigs and yeah you know all kinds of animals so but it's to the point where i hear that so much i used to love the song i'm just annoyed by it now so i certainly don't want your nova song to or you to get to the point of annoyance i don't want that either but yeah you have a chance to help yourself help animals through that helping those that may have been discarded by another concept so i will look forward to a future download option from you on that that will be a lot of fun and it'll be well i would say our little secret how that came about but everybody watching now knows but yes at any rate i'm going to wrap things up is there anything you would have liked me to ask that i didn't ask that you can ask yourself an answer i think we covered a good bit yeah i did yeah i when i first saw your profile on matchmaker fm that for those who don't know that there are many sites that work as a a goal between between artists and podcasters and whatnot so that pod casters can find guests and when i came up with music week's concept it was originally going to be music week just five monday through friday episode why not music make it music weeks maybe even music month so i started reaching out beyond the normal people i already had interviewed for music weeks and came across you on matchmaker fm and what really attracted me to want to talk to you was again with me having health issues you stating in your profile health issues dealing with it through music and that in a way got you back to the music was important to share that especially coming out of the end of sebruary as health weeks yeah and music has helped me tremendously
KRISTI JACQUES: it's saved my life and now i have a story to tell yeah and i'm glad you're here being able to tell
JOSEPH M LENARD (HOST): it i'm glad that worked out we didn't have to cancel as we thought might have to happen but uh yeah even for the most uncoordinated most unmusical person on the planet listening to somebody else's music can be soothing and healing and a very positive thing for their mental and physical health yes absolutely yeah it connects us all yep yep i think so too uh music can be a good escape or music can be a good memory tool like like you i go back and dig up an old 45 put it on play it i'm transported i escaped back to where i was at that time right yeah actually our treatment Alzheimer's oh my our mother had Alzheimer's for 10 years and you know what nobody ever suggested that i i talk about that association with music and memory but yet duh i never thought about it i mean we have the tv on for her all the time that same kind of thing right an old tv series type channel like tv land or whatever and i would think that would bring back memories but didn't think to the point of digging up her old albums to put them on and play them and see what that would have brought back in her so i am so glad you said that and that's something important that people now think and remember going forward if you indeed have somebody with dementia if they've got albums dig them up put them on for them and that can be helpful yes it can so yeah as with almost all of the music week show there winds up being something far more in depth or or far deeper than just the mute entertainment side of music and yet this with you is yet another example so thank you christy
jacks right jakes exactly i did it again christy takes i even wrote it down fanatically i'm still
screwing up

Music, TV, & Politics…

A few weeks back I had a “Lets go to the Lobby for Snacks and Politics” piece and its follow-up “Movies, Snacks, Politics, part 2” so makes sense – lets talk briefly about Music and TV…

But first a brief reprise about Movies – I hope you all caught “They Live” 35th Anniversary this year (while showing in many Theaters September 2023) and if not at Theaters please rent or stream it after you read this. Reminder: “They Live” an early John Carpenter (Writer/Director) piece where he dared to go down ChristiTutionalist Politics line before I coined the term and “Aliens” (the E.T. variety) as stand-in for the #DeepState always moving and manipulating behind scenes. Human-nature of those willing to go-along-to-get-along to Cash in for themselves. The 15-minute (minor exaggeration) I hinted at in the Movies pieces is great metaphorical outline for the verbal back-and-forth we often have with DUMBocrats to get them to see Reality!

Music:

#IStandWithJasonAldean (and, yes, too Oliver Anthony)
CMT (Country Music Television) crumbles to Cancel Culture, pulls “Try that in a Small Town” Video. And what my book (Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You) about, not just Foreign Terrorists but USA Leftist Terrorism within & destruction of Western-Culture (as whole, not just US). #JasonAldean #BoycottCMT

I tack this on here, as Patriots in good Independent Studios or Patriotic Producers/Directors need to assure this Song gets on the Soundtrack of their PRO-AMERICA Movies as many times/places as possible!!

Lastly, I know this is OLD NEWS to a degree and you are well aware and likely heard this story for several weeks already via FOXNEWS, NEWSMAX, OAN, and other outlets (including the ridiculous attempts by Left #ENEMEdia to make this somehow a Racist song calling for violence when the Writers (no, not Jason) and he (Jason) indeed all on the same page as to why they wrote it and why he wanted to Record it. AN ANTI-CRIME and ANTI-VIOLENCE piece, but if/when push comes to shove that we do have a Right to Defend ourselves from it. To protect and prevent our Communities being Arsoned to the ground by ANTIFA and #BlackLyingMarxist Hitlerian Brown-Shirt thugs.

Only the Left and their constant Race-baiting have the gall to say scenes (that show people of ALL RACES) is somehow Racist as an indictment of Black people? Who are the Racists? They are, if they say crime automatically equals Black people! Meanwhile scuttling #BidenCrimeFamily investigations and still creating major reach (stretching beyond all credulity of those Laws intent) on Statutes to try to charge POTUS45/Trump! Spare us the “What about the Lynching that took place at that Courthouse a hundred years ago” manure that no-one knew about until the Leftists #ENEMEdia desperate for a Talking-Point managed to dig up that History. I guess the Hannah Montana and the Christmas Movie filmed there are now also Racist (just like they tried to deem Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” as somehow Racist). When are Black Americans going to wake up to this pathetic and desperate Race-baiting?!?! Whom, in Poll after Poll show they want more police protection from the runaway and rampant Crime happening due to FASCICRATS weak-on-Crime and other failing policies!!!

Thank you to all that emailed or called CMT or Cable Companies that carry CMT and let them know they would like CMT pulled from their line-up as money will be the only thing they understand. As discussed in the BIDENomics pieces they chase the Woke ESG pennies, we must make then suffer huge dollar loses until they learn to stop pandering to the Cancel Culture manure.

A friend of mine posted a Breitbart article titled “Woke Maren Morris Announces She’s Leaving Country Music: ‘Misogynistic & Racist & Homophobic & Transphobic’” (no, not gonna link it) that I would talk about but all our “kind” reactions (here are those) were “WHO?” And some “less than polite” responses too (including a few snide ones from yours truly). LOL

Television:

That’s now Movies, Music, but what about TV? May as well take a pot-shot at that too?!?! I had for decades hoped we’d get a reboot of “The Streets of San Francisco;” like Hawaii Five-O was, and Magnum P.I. was; and while I liked those originals (I did not tune-in for those reboots) but that was long before Newsome, Piglosi, others, have completely destroyed it over these last couple of decades. So, maybe best we can hope for is reboot of Adam-12; though that was set in L.A. which has equally degraded into one of Dante’s layers of Hell, but maybe could be reset into a different City; as a method of bringing traditional values and BACK THE BLUE back; as opposed to all the Trash we’re getting these days (like, sadly, the reboot of Quantum Leap went all WOKE)?!?!?

Some final thoughts:

Now after three-parts total of/for “Movies and Politics (Music and TV tacked on in part 3)” I could go on forever, and probably no surprise to anyone that is a regular reader of mine that at some time in near future I would have a part three (more on Movies, and to pivot to Music and TV) as I now have!

Follow-up to the piece a few weeks back discussion of one of my all-time favorite Directors/Producers Roland Emmerich (and the part 2 “Movies, Snacks, Politics” piece): Many know Toby and/or Noah Emmerich, two of the people involved in/with the great Movie CELLULAR (with Noah Emmerich*, Chris Evans, Jason Statham, William H. Macy, Kim Bassinger, more) I just rented (via my DISHnetwork OnDemand feature (sign-up with my VCD0026116345 referral code for discounts)) to watch again as it is an A+ (remember, when that film came out was just at the time of proliferation of Cell phones with advanced features and therefore absolute genius script at that time). A good “temporary escape from Politics film.” From GOOGLE (about Noah): On television, the native New Yorker was a series regular on BACKWASH and played the despondent Dr. Edwin Jenner in the two-part Season 1 finale of THE WALKING DEAD. Emmerich's brother is film producer Toby Emmerich, but they are not, Emmerich explains, related to Director/Producer Roland Emmerich.

The Emmerich lines via DuckDuckGo (here).

Gasp, can you believe it? YES, you’ve reached the end of this article already! LOL Hey, gotta poke fun at ourselves if we are to be able to laugh at others. I am indeed trying to SCALE BACK the length of my pieces! 😊
