Revenge of the EBT Americans?

A funny weekend check-in turns fast into a field guide for a shaky week: what actually happens when EBT cards stop working, how quickly unrest moves, and where to avoid if you still need to shop on Saturday. We trace the likely flashpoints—from small urban grocers to big-box weekends—and explain why mass transit lines are the real map of transient crime. Then we get tactical without the chest-beating: safe shopping rules, parking-lot awareness, when not to go alone, and why calm carry skills beat adrenaline every time.

We go deeper on the forces driving the chaos. Algorithms push rage. Antifa isn’t a punchline; it’s a network with real-world training in Iraq and Ukraine. FPV drones now outrun cars and carry precision payloads. Consumer drones with thermal optics spot you from hundreds of yards. This isn’t to scare you—it’s to make you literate. Knowing what’s possible changes how you move, where you stand, and when you leave.

Balance comes from the basics. We lay out practical firearm choices that work under stress and stay fed during shortages. Irons build fundamentals; red dots deliver speed and precision, especially as eyes age. Suppressed 300 BLK requires gas tuning; ejection patterns tell the truth. Reliability beats novelty, and every member of the household needs a setup they can actually run. Above the gear, we circle back to what holds communities together: faith, marriage aligned around shared convictions, and real formation for boys becoming men. That’s the layer that outlasts outages, algorithms, and the next viral flashpoint.

If your city feels tense, this conversation gives you a plan you can use today. Listen, share it with someone who needs calm, clear steps, and help us reach more people who prefer preparation over panic. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: stay put or relocate?

Nu vai toi.

SPEAKER_00: 0:45

Did you get it? Did you get that video I think earlier of the uh the animated Disney film?

SPEAKER_02: 0:52

I did. Yes, I did. I'll have to play that stuff. Okay. Did we send that to you texted that to me, right? Yeah, they just texted it, yeah. Okay, I should be able to get that ready. Yeah. So how was your weekend? What'd you do? What did I do this weekend? Oh man, I feel like I feel like I did a lot. Well, Sunday we we went to Mass, of course. So that was that was a drive. I went to the aquarium with the kids after mass. What did I do Saturday though? Oh, I took my daughter to get her haircut. And um, and I got a haircut as well. And as I'm getting my hair cut, the hairstylist asked my daughter, who's sitting there watching, you know, she's like, Do you like daddy's hair? And my daughter, loudly in front of everyone, and the place was back, goes, Oh, daddy, you're so pretty. Oh, yes, and also this weekend, my six-year-old told my mom that she might have Tourette'cause because she swears so much. So, yeah, good weekend. How about you? Man, that sounds my kids.

SPEAKER_00: 2:08

So, my my oldest daughter has been reading, or she has read Hatchet, and if you remember reading that, oh yeah, I love that one. Yeah, she loved it. She likes so, but I've been trying to get my son to read it, and my son, like he loves like the action Bible, and there's you know, he's got like the Saint Chronicles, whatever that Tan does or Sophia or somebody does. He does. He loves like the comic book style. He just has a hard time sitting down and reading for a while, like he likes quick action stuff, right? We start reading that, and today he was asking my daughter about the scene in the book where the pilot has a heart attack. Yeah, and then and then one of my other daughters goes, Well, what's a heart attack? and he explains to her that a heart attack is when something happens to your heart and your chest opens up. I was like, Oh, okay, that's what happens.

SPEAKER_02: 2:56

It's like, son, no, that's the movie Alien.

SPEAKER_00: 3:00

That's when the face hugger plants an egg inside of you, and it comes and it eats itself out of you. But so then I had to explain them what a heart attack was, and that you know your chest doesn't explode because I could see them like I could see somebody having a medical event at church. Like, oh, he might be having a heart attack, and my kids are trying to see if his head's if his chest is naked.

SPEAKER_02: 3:19

Or they're taking cover, expecting it to there's gonna be blood everywhere.

SPEAKER_00: 3:26

But I had a good weekend. We so you know, I'm a part of the fraternist chapter here in Birmingham, and it's a if y'all don't know what fraternist is, y'all should look into it. Jason Craig started it uh with a couple other gentlemen a while ago, and it's really I hate to use the word evolved because I hate that word, but it has developed.

SPEAKER_02: 3:48

Which might be an even worse word for us Catholics.

SPEAKER_00: 3:52

But it it's really become an organization that's mostly focused on men and helping young men become men by surrounding them with men, right? Because you don't you can't learn how to be a man unless you're around men, right? And so that's why you know I I was raised mostly by a single mom until I was about 16 when I decided to go live with my dad. And it wasn't until that like 16, 17, 18 when I lived with my dad that like actually learned like what it's to be because before that I was just like a I was just like a soft little boy, pretty much. And then it didn't hurt that seven years later you know joined the Marines, but you know, but it's a we had a good weekend. We had we always have an excursion in the fall, and it's like the highlight of the year. We just basically go camp out on some land and just eat a lot of good food. We have rosary processions and exposition and benediction. We have all night adoration, you know, we have mass, we have a lot of good talks, a lot of good games. We do tug of war every year, and nice my fi because I well, it never fails. The team I'm on at Tug of War, I always end up do being on the team that does like three in a row, so my forearms are on fire by that third one, and I just can't even grip anymore, you know. But it's a good time, man. I I love it. I try and get every guy that lives around here that I talk to, like you really have got to get involved with fraternists because it is I've met all my good friends living in Birmingham through it. Uh fraternis, huh? I've never actually heard of it. Yep, it's phenomenal. They have a they have ranch every year, it's in tet in a Tennessee, it's like a week long, and it's basically just like uh a camp for men and boys. They do whitewater rafting, they have a wave pool, and they do a bunch of you know talks and mass.

SPEAKER_02: 5:42

And see, it's mostly in the southeast. That's a big part, yeah. Looks like the closest chapter to me is in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Yep. Same.

SPEAKER_00: 5:52

You'd always get one started where you're at. True. They're they're they're great though. We love it. I love it a lot, but I can't wait for my boys gonna be able to get into it next year. And so that'd be good for him. I tried to start a church to St. George here, didn't really take off, couldn't get a lot of buy-in. But you know, that'll be good for him because you have to be about fifth grade or 10 years old for boys to join. But it's good. It's the comp the the compliment I always get from from young guys or young men, one is that the young the young boys like going to fraternists because the older boys talk to them. And that's that was always a hard thing me growing up, you know, being around being around, you know, other boys like the older boys don't want to ever want to associate with the younger boys because that's how public schools are segregated. They're segregated by grade, and you don't talk to anybody outside that. Well, most of the people at fraternity are fraternist chapter anyway, are homeschooled. So that helps it one way, but another one is you know, the men tend to comment about how just well-spoken the young men are, how they'll shake your hand and look you an eye, and because there's a lot of things that we encourage there. So it's good, man. I encourage everybody to get involved if they have one near them. If they don't have one near them, look at trying to start one up. It's phenomenal. And if you don't follow Jason Craig, Jason Craig has his he wrote a book called Leaving Boyhood Behind, and it's basically a book about the lack of ritual of boys growing into men. Right. And there's a EWTN documentary about it too. If you don't want to read the book, you can watch it. It's a good documentary. It was good, celebrated, came back home in time to celebrate Christ the King. And I came up. I was tired. Man, I I don't sleep well when I camp. No, me either. I just never, and I might I had to bring my little tent and my little tent only. It's a four-person tent. By the way, they need there needs to be a congressional law.

SPEAKER_02: 7:43

Whatever the number is divided by two, not even that. It's at least two, right? Like a four-person tent is really a person and a half. It's like you or me.

SPEAKER_00: 7:55

It's like it's like a what is it? What was that movie with De Niro and he's selling cars? He's like, I can fit five five bodies in this trunk, right? That's about how they grade them. Like, how many bodies can you physically fit into a tent?

SPEAKER_01: 8:07

Right.

SPEAKER_00: 8:07

That's what it is. So it's a four-body tent, and you know, and I can't fit a cot in there, and my old bones don't do well, you know, sleep on the ground. So I didn't sleep well the first night anyway, but it didn't hurt, it didn't help anyway, that I had adoration from 11 to 12. And then at 3:30 in the morning, someone's car alarm was going off in the field where we parked our cars for like 45 minutes, and then we had to be up at six, right? So I'm like I'm dead tired Saturday pretty much. Uh drinking a lot of coffee, yeah, you know, popping a lot of Zen. And then Saturday night, same thing. Coyote's this time was the issue, keeping me up.

unknown: 8:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 8:44

So Sunday was. You know it. Yeah, yeah. You know, just in case you never know. I brought my thermal too, just in case.

SPEAKER_02: 8:53

I have a thermal that should arrive this week.

SPEAKER_00: 8:56

What'd you get?

SPEAKER_02: 8:58

Do you get the Wraith or give me a second? I can look it up real quick. Like let me pull it up. Yeah, the uh AGM Rattler V2 25256. Yep. That's it.

SPEAKER_00: 9:13

What did you pay about 800 bucks for or so? Uh 1100. Oh, you must have got the upgraded one. Yeah, yeah, the the 19 is 895.

SPEAKER_02: 9:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 9:25

Yeah, that's good. So I've got the AGM Sting IR, and I like it because I can clip it on and off. So I've so I on my main rifle, it's a it's a 12 and a half inch 556. Yeah, and I've got a red dot with a magnifier, and I can put on the uh thermal on front of my red dot for when I want to use it. Okay, and it works well. I've zeroed it in and it works well, but it's not as I wish I would have spent the extra money to go up one and get better detail, but it works. I mean, to be honest with you, you're just shooting at a blob anyway. So right, you know, it works. And it I may eventually upgrade and just give that one to my boy or something, just like with my MVGs. I've got a monocular, and um eventually if I go to a dual set, I'll probably give that one to my boy when he's older or let him use it at least. Um have that for him to use.

SPEAKER_02: 10:13

Yeah, we have a coyote that uh walks around town here that uh I don't think anyone's even tried to get rid of. So um yeah, might bait it uh one night outside of town to take care of it.

SPEAKER_00: 10:26

You gotta do. So do you have a 300 blackout? Yeah, you have a suppressor, yeah. You have subsonic ammo?

SPEAKER_02: 10:33

Yep.

SPEAKER_00: 10:34

All right, you go on Amazon, you look up a coyote called the speaker, yeah. Right? Charge it up, put it in the middle of the field, turn it on, just wait. Just like that's what I did here, man. I got like four in one night, one night.

SPEAKER_02: 10:50

The only downside for us is uh coyotes are pretty rare, and wolves are much more common, and you cannot shoot a wolf.

SPEAKER_00: 11:02

Let's be let's be careful. You can't be caught shooting.

SPEAKER_02: 11:07

I will no longer speak of this on air. Oh, you okay? You're back.

SPEAKER_00: 11:14

Yes, that wasn't me. That wasn't me. That wasn't me this time, that's you. My internet is good. That wasn't me. Then blame that on me, Ricky Bobby.

SPEAKER_02: 11:26

Hope's got a video on our outdoor cameras of me walking around playing with my night vision when I first got it. Is it's me walking around the yard with the helmet and the colour.

SPEAKER_00: 11:36

It's like trying to walk in cartoon world, everything's 2D.

SPEAKER_02: 11:40

It wasn't it wasn't as bad as I was led to believe it was.

SPEAKER_00: 11:44

Man, wait till you try driving with those things. Um I'm a I'm a horrible driver in those things. Is it's it's not only that, but especially if somebody's driving towards you and the lights are on, if you're not in a secluded area where you can't control that, yeah. Man, I and you can't tell like how far the so the first time I learned how to drive when I was in the Marines, I was driving to Humvee. So you've got you and you've got your assistant that's in the in the passenger seat, and he's kind of basically he's you know doesn't have his on, so he can see what's going on, and then you have yours on, and he can't keep telling, get out of the ditch, get out of the ditch, because I'm like six inches from hitting the ditch real bad, you know. It's bad. It's it's like you're driving in a cartoon, everything's like flat. Uh yeah, I mean no depth.

SPEAKER_02: 12:30

The the yeah, you lose peripherals, but that's not the biggest issue.

SPEAKER_00: 12:34

Everything looks flat. Yeah, you're I mean you're looking through a tube, so you're not gonna see everything out, but it's everything's just flat, and you can't tell depth perception at all. And now you can better with duels, especially panos, it is a lot better, but I'm not rich, so I'll never have to you do literally need to be rich for the quality or whatever. Anyway between 30 and 50,000 for some good panos, and I don't I don't think I'd even spend that money on that anyway, even if I could.

SPEAKER_02: 13:00

I mean, you it would have to be throwaway sort of money because yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Plus, what's it matter now nowadays? Nowadays, the drone's gonna get you, anyways.

SPEAKER_00: 13:10

Yeah, more yeah, yeah. That's so scary, man. You know what scares me the most is the FPV drones because they've got the Russia has got some now that travel up over 200 miles an hour, right? And those things they did have to put a little bit of you know C4 on the bottom of it, and they just hit you at two.

SPEAKER_02: 13:28

You might not even need to put C4 on it. You get hit by something that weighs two pounds at 200 miles an hour, it's probably over, anyways.

SPEAKER_00: 13:35

Did you see the DARPA video about the drones the size of like a cicada? And they put like two or three grams of explosive in it, and when it hits, it it it's intended to shoot that explosive basically. It's a shape, it's a shape charge. What are you gonna do about that?

SPEAKER_02: 13:56

You're gonna think it's a cicada coming at you, and then oh man, things are gonna get so much worse than they are now. Lord, send us die asteroid. Yeah, Freeman says one night I missed a ditch as I was walking under nods and went head over heels.

SPEAKER_00: 14:16

Yeah, we were doing an op on my first deployment, and we're gonna go snatch a dude up, and we decided to move one night about you know 15 clicks or so, and it was a full moon, and every so we had nods, and we were going, and we're everybody going, and so I flipped up my nods. I was like, Man, I can see perfectly, like it's a full moon. Like, I mean it's not daytime, but I can still see, so I just skipped those things up and kept walking. And guys were like, I can't believe how well you were walking under nods because I wasn't, man. You didn't need them tonight, like just flip those things up, like you're gliding out there. I was like, because I was actually walking and able to see what I was doing.

SPEAKER_02: 14:55

Dio Gracia says, Why are drones so dangerous now? Oh, lots of reasons.

SPEAKER_00: 15:01

Ukraine war has developed them a lot, cartels have gotten a hold of them and developed them a lot. You know, it's just like with uh medical during the GWAT, man, like they they work out all the kinks in conflict. That's the reason we send so much of our equipment over to Ukraine because one, we're getting rid of a lot of old stuff that we don't want to decommission ourselves, but we're also testing new stuff to see how it works and see how well it is, how how well it works. So it's just going to get worse, and it's easily acquired by anybody, civilians, military, anybody can get this technology. So is you're really just you know limited by your imagination on a lot of this stuff.

SPEAKER_02: 15:38

I mean, for a couple thousand bucks, you can get a a drone with thermal that you know will will see anyone from a hundred yards away, you know, 100-200 yards away easily.

SPEAKER_00: 15:49

Remember that that factory in Iran that got hit, and it was because of that the Israelis had a they had a truck that they all flew out of and hit right the factory those were made at were in Iran, right? So the the Israelis had basically started up a front company, built a factory to make these drones, and that's where they're made. So it's super easy just gen up a you know a few thousand drones real quick and get them out, or they're so small you can ship them in real easy. You can use drones to fly in other drones and drop off drones, like it's it's that droneception. Is that what you said? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 16:31

The drones find the drone that's gonna drone your drone.

SPEAKER_00: 16:37

But it's just it's just wild.

SPEAKER_02: 16:40

You know, it's I'm thankful more and more I live out in the rural areas because we have a lot of duck hunters out here, so we'll probably fare a little bit better than those city folk, but yeah, it's amazing how much uh how much old school, you know, double barrel uh shotguns are gonna come back in a vogue here.

SPEAKER_00: 16:57

Yeah, I'm I mean I've got a 20-inch barrel turkey gun, it's 10 gauge, uh, and I've but a couple of my dad's buddies want to buy it from me. Um, and I'm like, now I was gonna sell it. I was like, I don't ever use a tree. Now I'm like now I want a 20-inch barrel to reach out and touch something. Hang on to that thing, man.

SPEAKER_02: 17:17

Yeah, I got a a 30, I think it's a 32-inch barrel trap gun. That'd do it nice. Which one's frozen? That was you. Um, okay, should we should we show everyone or preface what we're gonna talk about with that with the Disney mount though? Yeah, let's do it. Y'all are welcome, by the way. You're welcome for this. Yeah, the thank Adrian for this, everyone. Decline? Nah, not today. Somebody got my baby out here hungry. We're fixing this.

SPEAKER_00: 18:02

Ma'am, the system flagged your account. You'll have to wait six to eight weeks. Disney and Pixar. The chirp, I didn't get that the first time.

SPEAKER_02: 18:11

Oh no, not today. You flip the whole store, the whole city feels it.

SPEAKER_00: 18:19

That's good. The chirp every time. The chirp. Every time. Who is it? Because we've had the conversation about, you know, like when I'm on Instagram and I'm just going through reels, like it within five to ten reels, it'll all of a sudden start being pro-Hitler stuff, like every single time, right? I don't know what is by IG, I don't know where all those guys are from. But uh, there's one guy on there, Gypsy Crusader, I think his name is, and he does like a lot of that uh chat roulette stuff, right? Okay, yeah, like a megal, isn't that kind of thing?

SPEAKER_01: 18:53

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 18:53

And he'll and if he when someone comes on that's a not Caucasian, a lot of times sometimes he'll just wait for the chirp before he starts talking. And it's every time. I don't get it.

SPEAKER_02: 19:09

I don't get it. Adrian did not make that. Adrian found that on that.

SPEAKER_00: 19:13

I acquired it on Instagram or Twitter. I acquired it and repurposed it. I repurposed it. No, no, I didn't steal it. Marines don't steal, marines reacquire. As we all learned in the Marine Corps, there's one thief, and everybody else is trying to get their stuff back. Right? So I acquire that for y'all, and I generously, as the the magnanimous man I am, I gave it to you. We appreciate it greatly. You're welcome, you're welcome. So the EBT apocalypse is upon us. Things kick off on Saturday.

SPEAKER_02: 19:47

Yeah, well, yeah, I mean that's November 1st.

SPEAKER_00: 19:51

Yeah, so Saturday. In fact, I looked up so Mike Shelby of it at uh Ford Observer uh sent out an email today about it and just kind of give them some pointers, and they're gonna keep an eye on what's going on. They're gonna see if there's any type of planned riots or I think what you're most gonna see is like flash mobs of people just running in and stealing a bunch of stuff and running out. But one of the things he said to look up was just go to your find your local state like DHR type of Department of Health and Resource or whatever it is, and find out what their stance is if they're gonna use state funds to pay for ABT, right?

SPEAKER_02: 20:25

Right, because states are the ones that actually manage it, but they get federal funds. So some states are going to use state funds to continue to pay it. Yeah, so those states are gonna be safer now.

SPEAKER_00: 20:39

Yeah, so it's probably gonna be like California, it's probably gonna be blue states, heavily blue states. You know, California, probably Illinois will do it, you know, probably the Northeast will do it. The issue is is a lot of them, there they're not as many up in the Northeast. There's a lot in Illinois, there's a lot in California, but where I'm at in Alabama, they will not be using state funds. So it's same with Minnesota.

SPEAKER_02: 21:05

Now, so the proportion of the demographic that uses it is have heavier in the south, but one in five uh people in Minneapolis is Somali. So ouch.

SPEAKER_00: 21:28

I mean I see Minnesota as like a modern day Albigensian crusade required event, like burn Minneapolis and like God's or sort them out sort of thing. Just like just go in there and you know, we'll just shove them all up into Canada and get them across the border, we'll be good. There's a lake between y'all and the Canada in there. 10,000 of them. Yeah, so rivers. Hopefully they can swim. Uh we'll just drive them into the waters or drive them into Canada. Blame Canada. But it's so on average, and I was looking up some statistics earlier. On average, uh an EBT is spent by the 15th of every month.

SPEAKER_02: 22:23

Really?

SPEAKER_00: 22:24

Yeah, on average. So that means you have a lot of people who don't have enough to get something right now at all.

SPEAKER_02: 22:30

And so they're literally waiting for the do they all get issued on the first, or do they?

SPEAKER_00: 22:35

It's like welfare, it's the first of the month. Okay, you know, wake up, wake up. It's the first of the month.

SPEAKER_02: 22:41

So they so they're by now they're they've been out for they've been using what they got on average 15th.

SPEAKER_00: 22:48

Yeah, on average they're spent within the first two weeks. You know, and not to disparage people who are on EBT, yeah. I grew up, I grew up on it somewhat. Like my mom was a single mom, she was making you know, making minimum wage for a long time, and you know, we probably wouldn't have eaten if it weren't for it, but we got off it as soon as we could.

SPEAKER_02: 23:06

And like for the record, like I I was a little hesitant about the the title we used because, like you said, I like there are people who need it, and yeah, you know, but you need it and you're using it until you no longer need it, yeah. Yeah, I mean that's what it's there for. And I we're not trying to find fun of you or anything like that.

SPEAKER_00: 23:26

The issue is a majority of people on Snap, EBT, whatever you want to call it, are abusing it, and they have been abusing it for a long time. You know, and there are there have been there have been stipulations on it for you to keep it that have not been enforced, like 20 hours of work a week, right? Was the minimum 20 hours is nothing, it's like two 10-hour shifts, right? You'd be a Monday and Tuesday and be done for the week, but they're just it just hasn't been enforced. Well, now it's being enforced. So you have a lot of people upset because now they have to work to maintain their EBT, and their EBT is being cut anyway, even though the standards are being forced. You know, some people who are getting you know,$1,200 a month are now getting like$400, right? Which I mean, my I deal with a lot of people's finances every day, and$1,200 a month is you either have like five teenage boys or you know, you're donating a lot of food, like$1,200 a month. Like you, unless you're eating organic, which is expensive, and you're not getting a lot of food for that, you know,$1,200 is a lot.

SPEAKER_02: 24:31

But these people aren't buying the best quality food with$1,200 nor the most efficient, you know, in terms of making or stretching it, you know.

SPEAKER_00: 24:41

Yeah, so kind of like what we saw with uh Black Friday and what happens when you know TVs ran out ran out, you're gonna see a lot of that happen on Saturday because a lot of people aren't in the know either. A lot of people don't know, hey, there's not gonna be there on Saturday when they go get it. So they're expecting to go do their Costco on Saturday or whatever. Does Costco take EBT? I'm sure they do, they have to, it's food, right? I don't know. Somebody in the chat find that out for us. Find out if Costco takes EBT. I'm pretty sure they do. But anyway, Saturday's the biggest day for you know Costco Sam's and such, and they're gonna get to the register and it's not gonna work, and they've got two carts in tow, and you know, it things could lift off from there.

SPEAKER_02: 25:30

Oh man, you know where I'm gonna be on Saturday?

SPEAKER_00: 25:34

Chat says yes to Costco. Where are you gonna be on Saturday?

SPEAKER_02: 25:37

Minneapolis, St.

unknown: 25:38

Paul.

SPEAKER_00: 25:43

Uh my uh what's going on this weekend that you're in Minneapolis?

SPEAKER_02: 25:47

My my grandma's in hospice, so we want to get down there and and get the kids to spend as much time with her as possible. She's 94, so not unexpected by any stretch of the imagination. But uh but I figured this weekend if this continues this weekend, it's probably better than two weeks from now, three weeks from now. Yeah, so we'll see. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 26:12

So Freeman said that you know, people sell EBT for 50 cents on the dollar. That's why you see a lot of gas stations, they take EBT. So what they'll do is they'll ring up something else and then give you half that money back and they keep the product. Yeah, uh, a lot of bodegas do that, you know. They'll do that, but I mean, grocery stores everywhere, especially if they're Indian with a dot and not with a feather, they do that a whole lot. And you have people who will, you know, sell their EB because it's on a card, so it's kind of hard to give that to somebody, so you have to go with them to use it, basically. Not like it was a muming back day, it was like food, it was like monopoly money, right? Food stamps, right?

SPEAKER_02: 26:57

Which one of us is me again?

SPEAKER_00: 27:05

Now that was me. That's me, that happened. I don't know what I'm like right now. Oh, I think that happened.

SPEAKER_02: 27:17

So today I saw that Walmart the their net income last year, you know, what the actual profit they made, I forget what it was. I think it was 25 billion. Is more or less almost the exact amount they get from Snap and EBD.

SPEAKER_00: 27:45

Do you know what the number one most sold item at Walmart is? What? Take a guess. Take a guess what you think it might be. It is a food item. I'll give you a hint. Pop. Did you say pot? Pop. Pop, okay. What Walmart you got? I'm sorry, uh Coca-Cola. Pop. Soda. Nope. Bananas. What?

SPEAKER_02: 28:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 28:19

Bananas are the number one sold item.

SPEAKER_02: 28:22

I mean, I if everyone's got kids, I understand why, judging from the number of bananas my children eat.

SPEAKER_00: 28:30

Yeah, bananas are the number one item. That's wild. Like, what are people doing with all these bananas? I know I don't see that much banana bread. So what's going on?

SPEAKER_02: 28:44

Like, what else do you do with bananas? What do you do with that? Besides banana bread. What else? What else are they good for?

SPEAKER_00: 28:49

Because you know, as soon as you get the bananas, they're brown by the next day, right?

SPEAKER_02: 28:54

Yes.

SPEAKER_00: 28:55

Every time.

SPEAKER_02: 28:55

And and I'm about I'm the only person that or they're green, it takes them a week and a half to become yellow, and then they're brown immediately after that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 29:05

Yeah. Because I'm the only one in the house that likes brown bananas. Because I my kids don't understand brown bananas are the sweetest. They're the sweeter. Yeah. Yes. They don't understand. They're like, oh, it's gross, it's yucky. I'm like, no, it's the best bananas. But also to get bananas to the point where you make banana bread out of them, they have to be disgustingly brown.

SPEAKER_02: 29:23

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 29:24

Like oozing brown. You know, so but yeah, bananas, that's wild. You know, and then nobody's gonna be buying bananas this weekend. It won't be the number one item this weekend. I can tell you that.

SPEAKER_02: 29:36

All right, I'm just surprised they're buying a whole ton of bananas.

SPEAKER_00: 29:42

Well, not to be racist. Adrian.

SPEAKER_02: 29:47

Careful. Careful.

SPEAKER_00: 29:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01: 29:56

See I look, you know, I

SPEAKER_00: 30:00

Respond a little bit better than Anthony does. I understand when I've steered off course, right? I don't just go charging. He would have just continued with that your own. So I appreciate the guardrails you put up for me. Alright. So before we get into the rest of this, let's let's settle the debate real quick. We are an official pro nog channel. Okay. Yes, we are. See Southern Comfort Eggnog is the best eggnog.

SPEAKER_02: 30:35

I have access to anyway.

SPEAKER_00: 30:36

Like a lot of those, I don't have access to.

SPEAKER_02: 30:38

I've never tried it, but I found it today and got it. I like the holiday custard personally.

SPEAKER_00: 30:44

Oh yeah? I've never tried the custard's like a custard's a north term. You know, we don't have we have we have cut custard down here, but it's at a restaurant that's from the north. We have culverts down here. Paul, shut your mouth. Shut your mouth, Paul.

SPEAKER_02: 31:02

Oh, Freeman's a here's the thing. Kind of like with the abortion debate, how you know the the terms evolved in pro-life and uh pro-choice. We shouldn't call them anti-Nog. We should call them anti-Christmas. They're not against Nog, they're against Christmas. And Adrian's gone again. He didn't even hear me. Didn't even hear me that time. It is him, right, guys? You guys can all see and hear me. And if you can, I hate that. I hate that you can see and hear me while he's gone. I know what Anthony feels like every time I take myself off screen or something. Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought. Great. Great. Well, you should all know that I bought 30 bucks worth of eggnog today just to take that stupid photo. Including the alcoholic eggnog I'm probably never gonna drink, but it was worth it just for the photo, just for the meme. That none of you probably understand because it's only kind of on gun Twitter. Yeah, they do they do, Paul, don't they? Oh, you're back. No, he's not back. He was back for half a second. Half a second. This is this is great.

SPEAKER_00: 32:27

Are you there? I'm here. Okay. Yeah. My whole internet. What what do y'all do to me? Are y'all attacking my internet? I'm in the house. I'm three feet away from the router, and my whole internet went down.

SPEAKER_02: 32:44

It was the internet knew that comment you were about to say, and it's like, nu-uh.

SPEAKER_00: 32:52

So I didn't hear what what are we calling the anti-noggers?

SPEAKER_02: 32:56

They're not anti-nog, they're anti-Christmas, anti-holidays.

SPEAKER_00: 33:02

They're they they're Kwanzas.

SPEAKER_02: 33:05

You're yes, they're pro-Kwanza. That's what it is. Pro-Kwanza.

SPEAKER_00: 33:10

Yeah. Because you know, the demographic who likes Kwanzaa is lactose intolerant. And only lactose intolerant people don't like eggnog.

SPEAKER_02: 33:16

Pro-Kwanza and pro um uh Hanukkah. The Festival of Lights. You if you don't like Nog. Like Diwali. Like Dwali, yeah. If you don't like nog, I bet you love spinning a dreidel. You do.

SPEAKER_00: 33:36

Dradel, dreidel, dreidel. I made you out of clay.

SPEAKER_02: 33:39

So my daughter, when she first started singing, she had a song that we didn't know what it was at first. Took us a while. Because what it sounded like was dreidel, dreidel, dreidel. We're like, what is she singing? Turns out she was singing twinkle, twinkle, you know, twinkle, twinkle, little star. But it was dreidel dreidel.

SPEAKER_00: 34:06

I had a friend whose little boy had like a it wasn't really like a speech impediment, he just like didn't speak words correctly for a while. And so he was like two. And when he said fire truck, it was not fire truck, it was fire f word. And so I and so man, I got him to say it so many times. So, what is that red thing? The the men ride on, they go to put out you know, houses that you know are burning. Oh, yeah, fire truck. Oh, okay. And everybody's just like losing it. Like, uh, so you know, if if uh how many men are on that vehicle? And he's like, What vehicle? You know, you know, the the one with the men on it that put out the fires. Oh, the fire truck, yeah. The fire truck. And just trying to get and say it as many times as I could. Like one guy peeing himself, laughing so hard because he kept doing it. His parents did not like me, you know. This is back before I discovered the Lord.

SPEAKER_02: 35:01

So oh, like you wouldn't laugh at it now.

SPEAKER_00: 35:05

I would, but I would turn my head first and cover my mouth, like we do with all our kids when they say something hilarious because you can't let them know something's funny. Because then the one, they'll wear it out. They'll do it for 30 minutes and they won't let it go. But two, now they understand that sometimes things are funny that sound bad. And then they try and find more of those things. Oh yes. Let's see if I can switch internet back. My internet came back up. I'm using my phone right now. It's funny because it's working way better. Sad. Randy's gone again. I'm back, I'm back. So the issue I have out in the shop, I'm just far away and having to use basically a mesh network to chain it out there. Right. Um and so now I'm in the house, and I just got I got a notification that my home security system went down. So that's when I knew the whole system went down, not just me.

SPEAKER_02: 36:18

Oh man. Drinking Nog for this game for this episode, and I'm like a quarter gallon in, it's getting to be too much, guys.

SPEAKER_00: 36:27

Do you do you put anything in it?

SPEAKER_02: 36:29

No.

SPEAKER_00: 36:36

Yeah, maybe in the future I'll do that. As we talked about before the show started, I'm having a peanut butter, peanut butter and jelly.

SPEAKER_02: 36:45

Okay, what is in your peanut butter and jelly?

SPEAKER_00: 36:47

It is peanut butter whiskey from Old Smoky and Gatlinburg and Blackberry Moonshine. And it tastes like a peanut butter and jelly. It's very good.

SPEAKER_02: 36:59

Don't know how I feel about this.

SPEAKER_00: 37:01

It's moonshine, so I'm not a girl.

SPEAKER_02: 37:04

I was gonna say, because it sounds an awful like the drinks Anthony likes.

SPEAKER_00: 37:08

Yes, but it's moonshine, so I'm not a girl.

SPEAKER_02: 37:12

Maybe I will have to get some for tomorrow. You said peanut butter whiskey and peanut butter whiskey. Yeah. By old smoke, you're right, and black burning moonshed.

SPEAKER_00: 37:23

Just equal parts, one shot each, two shots each, however, you like it. It's good. Tastes just like a pit burn jelly.

SPEAKER_02: 37:31

A martini with balls.

SPEAKER_00: 37:34

It's a southern martini. Testicultini. Mm-hmm. It's very good. Very good. It was either that or I was gonna break out the buffalo trace.

SPEAKER_02: 37:44

But I decided to go with this. I picked up a uh I've been wanting it forever, like 15 years. I first uh heard heard about it, so I saw it about 15 years ago. Have you ever heard of the Sam Adams Utopias?

SPEAKER_01: 37:58

Hmm.

SPEAKER_02: 37:59

It's technically beer brewed by Sam Adams that they age in different part alcohol barrels, but this beer they're able to brew to like 30% alcohol, and it every year they mix a new batch in. So you have some some of this beer is 30 years old at this point, some of it's brand new, and it's like I said, it's technically beer, but it's it's you know, 60-proof basically. It's interesting.

SPEAKER_00: 38:32

Can can beer be 60 proof?

SPEAKER_02: 38:34

Yeah, yeah, because so it's not they don't distill it all, right? They're just fermenting, yeah. You know, fermenting it like they would beer, and they don't distill it, so it's still technically beer, but it tastes a lot more like a brandy or whiskey.

SPEAKER_00: 38:50

Have you ever had dragon's milk? Yes, that's like 11%, and that's way too much. So I can't imagine 30 or 60 percent.

SPEAKER_02: 39:01

I was gonna be I was gonna drink some of the some of it on show tonight, but then I decided to do the eggnog meme.

SPEAKER_00: 39:07

Yeah, eggnog is a good choice, though. It's a good way to kick things off as we're getting closer to the to the holiday season. All right, so do you want to start going over Don Shift's Yes? I have a tweet TWET post. What do we call that now? His TWAT, his his zitter. So if y'all don't know who Don Shift is, Don Shift is a well-known, he writes a lot of good books, some urban survival, rural security ops, things like that, right? So he put out this this post, and I want to go through it kind of what he sees as some of the uh most likely events that happen after Saturday. Because keep in mind the government shutdown right now is mostly being hung up, it's being hung up on both sides, yeah. Um but it's but it's being blamed on the Democrats at this point, and the Democrats think it's leverage because they think you know, us depriving people of their EBT, we're gonna look like monsters, but they don't think they understand the monsters that are gonna be released on Saturday.

SPEAKER_02: 40:14

Here's the thing I think the leaders actually do, and they're willing to use that violence as a tool.

SPEAKER_00: 40:22

Yeah, I can see that. But the issue is now is is 2025 Trump is not 2020 Trump. So the team around him is way different now. Yeah, so I don't think it's gonna swing like they think it's gonna swing. But with you know, them not understanding because the issue with anybody on the left, because it if you lack any type of mooring in the faith, you don't understand one, you don't understand original sin, but two, you don't understand how human nature reacts, right? Right, and because they think everyone is inherently good and you know that kind of stuff, but and so they don't know how to properly predict things, like we may have a little bit better of an insight to do because we understand through the moorings of our faith how people act and how evil people can be, and how it's irrational a lot of times, and so they make all these grand plans, and the reason they never work is because they don't understand these things when they supplanted religion with psychology, and then they started explaining away people's issues, they lost their bearing on being able to interpret actions and interpret future behavior behavior. So now we're starting to see that's why there's so many slip-ups, right? And that's why you know in 2016, you know, the the big thought was you know that the Republicans can't have this, you know, this fever pitch for long. Well, it's been nine years, and it just and as more and more outrage comes out, more and more repeople come to the right.

SPEAKER_02: 41:56

They were they definitely were not prepared for the reaction to Charlie Kirk. No, the fact that we were willing to turn turn cancel culture around on them and you to use it against utterly surprised them. Yeah, now did we kind of fail at it and give up on it way too soon? Yes, yes, we did, but they were completely unready for it.

SPEAKER_00: 42:18

Yeah, they aren't they aren't prepared to see their own rules used against them, and they've always expected you know the those on the right to always take the higher road so they can continue to take the lower road, and now we've got some guys who on the right who are in, you know, they aren't they aren't afraid to get a little dirty, right? And get down in the muck with some of these people, you know. It's why you see like Nick Fuentes is just skyrocketing. He was on Tucker today, right? And that's insane because not even two months ago, Tucker was calling him that little kid in his mom's basement, you know, and now I'm gonna have to watch that episode tomorrow. Yeah, I think it'll be interesting. I I'm more interested to see how Tucker speaks to him than I am what Nick Fuentes says, right? Because you cannot underestimate at all, especially now, the effect Gen Z is gonna have on things. This is the entire generation that is has been raised by a lot of Gen X who has no shame anyway because we're latchkey kids, right? And we were basically thrown out as feral children and we survived, and we raised Gen Z who are now they have no shame. Like you cannot call a Gen Z kid racist. They don't they they thrive on it, they they this it's like yeah, it's it it's it makes them stronger, yeah. Exactly. And uh I and I had this conversation this weekend with a couple of the men at Fraternis, and I was having this with them and talking about the and not even within 24 hours, I'm walking by a group of boys, you know, as I after I left Faternis, and one kid I just overheard one kid talking to his friends, and he was he was doing in a like a play voice, and he's and he sounded German, right? You know exactly what he's doing, and one of the you know, and then he was like, I don't want any, you know, he's basically saying I don't want any juice, juice all I want with juices to get rid of them, right? And like it's just this common parlance, that's common, you know, humor to these kids now. They don't care, and you cannot control someone you cannot shame, right? And so the world is not, and not only that, but then Gen Z as well, they are seeking authenticity, right? Whether you're good or evil, they don't care, they just want you to be authentic, right? And so that's why you have so many young Gen Z men coming to the faith, because they see the Catholic Church as the only church that has not changed, right? And it is authentic to them, and then they see the Latin Mass and they then they go on for it because they see it as authentic, because they've been everything they've been raised in a false world. Social media is false, their teachers at school are false, everything they learn at school is false. The the way that their parents sometimes treat them around other people is false, and they just want something that's true, and unfortunately, a lot of times it's in it's in unhealthy areas, and it's having very hard humor, we'll say the I mean if you think about it, the only authentic interaction you know a 20-year-old male has had up to this point is when someone show you know shows them the utter contempt and disgust they hold white males with.

SPEAKER_02: 45:44

Because otherwise, everything they see, you know, is some BS constructed politically correct facade that everyone has learned to put on over the over the last 20 years, right? So the only real interactions they get are when someone someone shows them hatred. What do you think that does to a whole generation of young men?

SPEAKER_00: 46:06

Imagine growing up as a young white male, and you go through public school, and you are purposely you're specifically told the entire time that people of color are better than you, that you have done nothing but oppress these people, and that your entire culture is about oppressing other people, and that you will never be better than anybody. You should you don't deserve any good jobs, you don't deserve to go to college. And when you do finally get to that stage where you're applying for college, you find out even though you're at the top of your class and you have the best grades possible, and you're you're getting rejected by multiple schools. Imagine what that does to a young man's psyche and his outlook in the world, right? And it's only going to fester and cause a jaded outlook. And then these young men are the really the only ones that have really any type of impulse control, right? Whereas they see other people of different demographics who don't have to exhibit impulse control, they can do whatever they want, and then it's explained away the way they act that way, and it's not really their fault, and other culture just does that, so it's not really their fault, right?

SPEAKER_02: 47:20

We're literally having people excuse away rape as being a cultural difference at this point.

SPEAKER_00: 47:28

It it will not be good in what in what where it goes from here, and on top of that, a majority of people in the United States who own firearms and hunt are white, right? And so this is it, this is a fight that the Democrats are trying to pick, and they think they're going to have the institutions on their side when it flips, and right now they don't. They may eventually, or they may have like the military and and other institutions on their side when this decides to go hot, but we didn't do well in Afghanistan. I know I went there twice, right? And you do that in rural Alabama, where they know all these hills, and you're going in there, you know, with your kid from Birmingham who's never you know steps outside of his suburban yard more than a handful of times, like he's this just not gonna happen, right? It's just not gonna it's not gonna go the way they think it is, it's because they don't understand human nature, yeah. But let's uh let's pull up Don's tweet again and we'll start going through it. All right, so number one. Well, if Snap EBT riots occur Saturday, November 1st, here's what we can expect. Again, this is what he he's kind of throwing out as conjecture. One, we'll likely start at ghetto supermarkets, etc. You know, should know which ones. Best case, Derbercen's only, police get involved and contain. Worst case, mass looting and flash bombs. As we saw in Ferguson, Minneapolis, you know, any of these other riots, they don't mind destroying their own neighborhoods whatsoever. Nope. They don't mind destroying the the businesses owned by their neighbors at all, as long as they can just act out. So I I think that's that was most likely going to be the place where you see the violence first.

SPEAKER_02: 49:15

Now, for the most part, these should be places you avoid already, anyways. Yeah. So these first ones.

SPEAKER_00: 49:23

Like here in here in here in Alabama, you've got you know a few major supermarkets, right? Like Piggly Wiggly, Publix, Walmart, Sprouts, Whole Foods, if you're down in more urban areas, suburban areas. But then you get like these like Johnson's food mart, pick and save, you know, these places. Like here in Alabama, you're not gonna have as as much of an issue because country black is the same as urban black, right? So it won't be as bad here, but a lot of these places that you don't you know you don't normally go to because you're the only person of your particular skin shade that would be in there, yeah. You need to stay away from these places. Oh, and and not only that, but because you are the other, right when when when mob mentality happens, they're looking for the other to attack. And if you are the if it's a you know it's a place full of Hispanics and you're white and you walk in there, you're the other, right? So you have to be aware of those things and try not to be in bad parts of town at all if you can help it, but if you can't, especially after dark.

SPEAKER_02: 50:32

I I honestly don't think this first stage will last very long because I mean there are bad actors who will push push that rage towards the suburbs, towards the white neighborhoods, yeah, you know, you know, things like that. So I and we saw that with we did see that with the 2020 violence. Like, yeah, the it started in in say like in Minneapolis, it started in in some of the areas that weren't so nice, but it quickly moved to like uptown on on on Lake Street in Minneapolis, which beforehand was not such a bad neighborhood. Now it's terrible because they burned it down and and now it's just it's miserable. But at that point, it was kind of an upscale, hipster-ish sort of neighborhood, and that's what you know, that's where they moved, that's where they burned down things and and things like that. So I think it quickly moves out of those areas.

SPEAKER_00: 51:34

I so I was up in Minnesota in 2021, and a buddy of mine that I was there with, he you know, he he he lived in Minnesota for a while, the St. Paul, Minneapolis area, and he wanted to take us to an area called White Bear. Is that so familiar?

SPEAKER_02: 51:49

Yeah, uh well now the white does the city of White Bear or like White Bear Avenue in St. Paul. City of White Bear. Okay, like north a little bit north of Minneapolis, in St.

SPEAKER_00: 52:00

Paul, yeah, yep. And that was like a fairly white area when I was there, and they said they they had issues up there during 2020 as well, and it reached all the way up there, and it was a nice little area, you know, is in I like we went to like some little pub there that was nice, but they you know, even up there where I was like, there's no there's no ethnic minorities around here, it's all white people, and it still reached up there.

SPEAKER_02: 52:27

Yeah, there was one major one major highway that that m goes up that direction from the city, so it's easy to get there. Yeah, and yeah, they they traveled quickly out to the areas where they wanted to do the damage. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 52:42

So this second point speaks to what you were just saying. He says, Will it spread? Depends on how many people freak out and if mass looting goes viral. We could see a TikTok push by leftists, bad people, or even foreign actors encouraging looting. A chimp out over no food serves the Democrat Party in China-Russia. And this kind of leans into what Anthony's been saying the past you know week. The algorithm is pushing a lot of hate right now.

SPEAKER_01: 53:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 53:05

On whether it doesn't matter what social media avenue you're on. Uh, and I see it, you know, on mine, and and I haven't really been on X as much for like the past week, just because I'm like I'm just bored of it, honestly. But I've seen it just a lot of like rage going on in the and the algorithms are done that in order to socially engineer people into certain behaviors. So I could definitely that and that may be the gear up to this.

SPEAKER_02: 53:32

I mean, we're we're seeing we've all seen videos on. Well, I would assume most of us on Twitter have seen videos already pushing, you know, that sort of stuff. So all right.

SPEAKER_00: 53:44

So let's go down a little bit. If it spreads, the stores in poorer neighborhoods will be looted, police will probably start clamping down on it, which can either cause things to fizzle or looting to spread outside of the ghetto. As we've seen with the ice facilities, in fact, two weekends ago here in Birmingham, there's a city just northeast of Birmingham called Gadston. They had a shooting at the ICE facility there. Gadston's not a very big town at all. It probably has 75,000 people, I would guess. That's off the top of my head. Somebody can fact check it, but it's not a very big town at all. But they had a shooting there, and a friend of mine who's in uh law enforcement was thinking he's gonna be called in for that and he was gonna have to leave the camp to go do that. So we're having it here in Alabama, right? Those that where that activity is being pushed out to even more unsuspecting areas. So if the police do come down hard on it, you could see that cause even further anger because these people are just wanting food, right? They just want to feed their kids, and their kids are like morbidly obese, and their kids could probably go without a meal for a few days and be fine, right? And it and it's just a testament to how rich we are as a country that our poor people are fat, you know. So all right, number four. Do you want did you want to say anything on that one before we move on to it?

SPEAKER_02: 55:11

Well, just I think the if riots happen, it's it's not they're not gonna be organic necessarily necessarily in the sense that people are actually rioting because they're gonna go hungry. I think it some of them are really like some of the initial anger really might start out that way, but then we'll see the bad actors kick it and stuff. And what I think we'll see happen is if they're pushing for just anger and hatred and violence against other groups, the police in Minneapolis aren't gonna crack down on anything, I'll tell you that. You know, the police in St. Paul won't either, they'll be told not to, they'll be told to let let them go. Yeah, so they won't get the reaction that they are actually looking for, whereas the police in the suburbs will, they'll and they'll get that sort of reaction there, and that's where I think at least from the areas I know, like say here in Minnesota, I think that those those initial out initial ring suburbs around Minneapolis and St. Paul will actually see the real like initial violence potentially.

SPEAKER_00: 56:21

Dale Gratius 21 has a good point, you know, in a question. What if Antifa do direct actions undercover the rioting? Since 2012, when it occupies Wall Street, it was 2012, right? 2011, 2012, yeah. 2011, 2012, right? So that's basically the genesis, roughly, of the organization of the modern Antifa we know now. Uh it kind of started there. And again, I'm gonna keep pressing, you know, Mike Shelby a forward observer because he's done the lion's share of all this, and a lot of this has got uh come from me reading a lot of his reports and interacting with him and talking with him about things that but Antifa is highly organized since in twenty since 2012 when they really started to coalesce. 2016 is when they really made their coming out party, right? And then they kind of died off until 2020, and then 2020 came. And in 2020, when we started seeing the mostly peaceful summer, uh the summer of love, that's when they started working out the kinks and a lot of their training. Antifa has a lot of far-left military trainers. Yep, they have sent a lot of people to go train with the Kurds in Iraq and in Ukraine. Ukraine, yeah. Right. And so they are coming back and learn and spreading lessons learned from these uh conflicts and then training other Antifa. You know, that there's a big joke about how Antifa is, you know, when the shooting starts happening, their SKS will just jam, right? Like they don't know what to do. A lot of them, yes, maybe. But there is a sizable contingent of them that are well trained, very well trained, and they're getting better training as time goes on. So, yes, they we already see it with all these ice facilities, you know, they're taking pot shots there, but those are also going to be right now the most disposable guys doing that.

SPEAKER_02: 58:11

I was gonna say that that's just the idiots they can talk into giving it a try.

SPEAKER_00: 58:15

Like like you know, guys, like the Muslims with the S Fest, right? It's usually retards and people who have no type of social standing whatsoever.

SPEAKER_01: 58:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 58:23

Um, so those are the ones that are most susceptible to that kind of coercion. But yes, you're going, we're going to see that. And what you know the what you need to realize as well is you know, with the Steve Scalise shooting at the congressional baseball match, right? That was still a far leftist. And the rhetoric since Charlie Kirk has not calmed down at all. In fact, it's ramped up, so it's just going to get worse. They're going to feel emboldened, especially in very highly Democrat-run cities where they've got overarching support by the DA and the ADA and the police. That's why nothing's ever happened in Portland, because the police are on the side of Antifa and they let and they will prosecute you for defending yourself. Keep these things in mind. You know, if you live in these areas, your best bet if you can is to remove yourself some of the situation if you get into these any type of alter altercations. But if you can move, do it. I know it's it, and and I know we hear that a lot, and I understand, you know, houses are expensive and the interest rates are high, and you're not going to be able to afford a very good house right now, especially if you have to move, and if especially if you don't have some type of remote work, I get that, right? But when 2020 happened, I was willing to sell everything we have and live with my family in a van down by the river in order to keep my wife from having to take the shot. Right. I did because what was most important to me was my family. Thankfully, we didn't have to do that. But I you have to you have to detach yourself from Material things because we're all gonna have to eventually do that soon, anyway. Especially if there is a larger conflict, you're not gonna have a choice, it's gonna be done for you. So if you can start getting to it now, if you can move and make that sacrifice, and if you've got family somewhere that lives in a more rural area, move towards family, keep the keep some type of community, or if you know of a good parish that's there, you know some people that go there, you know, go there. If you want to come to Birmingham, I will plug you in. I know a bunch of people here, and I know a lot of good folks, and I will get you a job. Right? I know a lot of folks that have you know that need people, especially if you want to do some type of trade. I can guarantee you I can get you a job. I will plug you in, but you got to make the decision to move somewhere that's better for you and your family. Yeah, don't talk too much, Rob.

SPEAKER_02: 1:00:51

I'm not used to being given the opportunity to actually talk.

SPEAKER_00: 1:00:56

See, the thing I just said everything Rob was thinking. I just said it in a southern accent, right? So all right. Four stores being closed, emptied in bad neighborhoods mean those shoppers come to the better neighborhood to shop, freak out, steal, loot. All right, I'm gonna tell y'all the best indicator that you are going to have transient crime come to your area. Do you have public transportation? Yeah, that is where transient crime goes, wherever public transportation goes. Okay, if you have public transportation that comes to where you live, you can expect this. It's going to happen. My my wife tells me I'm I'm from the north because I grew up in Kentucky, and she's like, that's basically Indiana. I say, no, Kentucky is south of the Mason Dix line. It is the south. But my since living here in Alabama, my southern drawl has come out quite a bit more. Quite a bit. Let's see, what is this? One worry I have, Daryl Gottius again. What if the troops on the military pace go left? The whole garrison are after some conflict. So there are a lot of leftists in the military. They're mostly in support roles, you know, supply, admin, things of this sort, right? Motor T. But a lot of motor T is just a bunch of rednecks that just get a chance, like they get paid to drive. So they love it. But there are in the admin roles, especially, you're gonna see that. But if a conflict does happen, these people are gonna choose their family over the military. They're probably gonna desert and go back to their family more than likely. And they're not going to shoot people they know, right? It's already hard enough to get these people to shoot accurately anyway, and you want them to shoot at other Americans, it's not it's just not gonna happen. Now, other aspects that may come in are if if they're hungry enough, right? Or their family is held in some type of hostage situation. Like, hey, we'll give your family food if you carry out you know these activities. Like I can see that happening. There's a you know, there's a scarcity of food. Because that my when it comes to like gun confiscation, I think a majority of people will hand their firearms in. Because all you have to do is cut off food supply and start promising people, hey, I'll trade you a week's worth of food for a firearm, and they will do it gladly. The officer class is gay because they all come from universities. Like to be an officer in the military, you have to have a degree. Mostly, you can get promoted to officer without a degree, but it's rare. Uh majority, 99%, almost the plurality, are have some type of degree, and they most institutions are very far left leading. All right, number five, food robberies in parking lots, stealing from your car, cart when your back is turned, is a possibility if people get desperate. But remember they aren't starving, mostly mad that they aren't getting benefits. And this is just this is just people unwilling to deal with conflict. At this time, you after November 1st, until the EBT are turned back on, you your wife should not be going to the grocery by herself. Yeah, you you she and you may have to And don't bring don't let her take don't let her take kids.

SPEAKER_02: 1:04:35

No, don't bring kids with you when you go. Nope.

SPEAKER_00: 1:04:39

We hear a story probably once a month down here of some of these, like what's happening in you know your local city Facebook groups of women being stalked in grocery stores and stalked out to their car, and they have to call the police as they're walking to the car, and then they hear them talking, then the guy turns away, and then then they'll show like security video of it happening, whatever, you know, after they get it all at least once a month. And that's just right now as things are normal, right? How much worse is it gonna be when they see you know they they're case in you is you're walking out of the grocery with your big you know, Thanksgiving turkey, and they can't get a thirsty Thanksgiving turkey because they're on EBT, right? So your family, your wife should not be bringing kids to the grocery by herself, she should not be going to the grocery without you after November 1st. I'm not a video game guy, right? Once I had kids, I don't have that luxury anymore.

SPEAKER_02: 1:05:38

I uh I may have better feels a lot more for you. All right, so number six, look out for protest, looting, or other events that could explode into full-blown rioting. Lord help us if a martyr is created. So if something were to happen that gives them another George Floyd in some sort of protest or looting, that that would definitely throw things over the edge.

SPEAKER_00: 1:06:07

And I see the only way that happening is if it's caught on video, right? If something gets you know, say he's like walking out with like a loaf of bread and then he gets shot, like you know, that's it. The optics matter.

SPEAKER_02: 1:06:19

Now, I mean, I could see Antifa creating a false flag event like that.

SPEAKER_00: 1:06:27

A lot of things have to, you have to have a lot of control of the situation and all the variables in order to get a false flag to properly plant, right? Like, so if you wanted to create like a man coming out of the grocery store with a loaf of bread, you have to make sure no one is out with him, right? Because you want him to be by himself, yeah, right. Uh, and he has to be aware that he's about to die, right? Uh, and most people aren't gonna do that, right? And you've got to be able to control who else is there, and there's no other altercations, there's no police there, and there's a lot of controls, so but they could also buckshot this, they could do this at a bunch of locations and just see what sticks to the wall, true, right? So I could see a situation happening and causing that because this is food, and everybody's sympathetic to people needing food, right? But if it's a big old fat guy coming out with a loaf of bread and he gets shot, there nobody's gonna feel sorry.

SPEAKER_02: 1:07:24

Well, see, unfortunately, here in Minnesota, a lot of the Somalis are still for whatever reason abnormally skinny. I don't I don't know what that's about, but it's genetics mean genetics, yeah. Genetics. I I could also see, you know, if you got a lot of people who say normally don't carry that are starting to carry because of this, right? And are maybe a little overly jumpy or or whatever, you know, because of it. I could see a couple situations happening across the country, you know, where where someone does, you know, maybe maybe get a little overly zealous and defending themselves in a situation that maybe didn't call for it.

SPEAKER_00: 1:08:06

Yeah, I can see that. Especially if it's someone who's unfamiliar or not comfortable with carrying a firearm. Yeah, they're not or and they're also not comfortable with being in an in a altercation or some type of shouting match. We you see police body cams about that all the time. You know, people just not able to uh control or their emotions enough and they end up going half cocked and and pulling a firearm when they shouldn't have. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. I can see that happening. Uh let's see. What neighborhoods will this happen in? Poor ones. I agree. Probably most likely predominantly black ones for obvious reasons, but also in other heavily minority communities. Hispanics tend to be more restrained, but rioting may be an outlet for angst over Trump's immigration policy. Yet any majority illegal alien community might be too terrified to invite ICE or do anything that might result in deportation or riot. I deal with a lot of Hispanics at work, and the illegal ones are they're scared of ICE because they don't want to go back because they have families here. A lot of their family is like naturalized citizens. Um, and they're like the only one that's illegal. And if they leave, then their family is without income. But I also see a lot of them have I don't say a lot of them, I know a number who have decided to self-deport and try and emigrate legally now. And what I had, because when I when I talked to their families about it, apparently during the Biden years, they were just telling them don't worry about it. Yeah. So they wanted now that they realize like, hey, you know, because some of them like they come into the country and they yes, they know it's illegal, but like it's not that big a deal. Everybody's done it. And then they get here and, like, hey, you know, I should probably get my citizenship. But the Biden administration basically told them, don't worry about it, you're not gonna need it. Um, so they didn't do it. But now that Trump is actually enforcing rules, I know of quite a few of them that have deported themselves and are now trying to immigrate legally. And because they have family here, they're hoping it kind of speeds up the process. Okay, I I rarely, unless it's gang members, I rarely see Hispanics act anything but respectful. And maybe that's just like the type I deal with here in Alabama, but I've never had a bad interaction with any Hispanics here ever.

SPEAKER_02: 1:10:37

Yeah, it's it's largely that way up here up here too. We have there's a large Hispanic community on the the west side of St. Paul, nearby where I grew up, and uh other than Single de Mayo usually getting maybe a little out of hand. No, uh usually it's there.

SPEAKER_00: 1:10:54

Uh pretty, yeah. I've just I've just never like yes, I mean there is an issue there because they are uh stealing wages basically.

SPEAKER_02: 1:11:04

Yeah. You guys notice that? Come on, you're back.

SPEAKER_00: 1:11:23

But anyway, I just uh lost my train of thought. I just don't know.

SPEAKER_02: 1:11:30

Stealing wages, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:11:31

So but the biggest factor stealing wages has been has been women in the workforce. That's the biggest factor, right? When when women came into the workforce after World War II, and then the men came back in the job, a lot of their jobs weren't there, yeah, because the women were able to do it cheaper, right? And and that's a big issue. This is the biggest issue, but illegal immigration is definitely cutting into uh you know being able to offer a livable wage. Um, but also we you know, we're our system, capitalism, is inherently uh greedy. Yeah. How it was is how it was slowly developed into a system where it's meant to profit the owner more than it is to provide an economy for everyone to live in. Because they're as we've seen, like they're they're very willing to just raid the coffers right now. That's why all this money is going to Ukraine, right? Because the you know, our elected officials know, hey, like we're not gonna have this opportunity much longer. And so we're gonna try and raid this because all foreign aid eventually comes back to those who voted it in, like a majority of it, right? And that's why you have all these politicians that are making$180,000 a year and five years later they're worth$20 million. Yeah, it's because they're being funneled foreign aid back to them because they voted for it. It's one big laundering scheme. Yep. We got number eight. Number eight. Number eight, will you starve or suffer food shortages, etc.? Probably not unless your store is in the ghetto. Any disruptions will be limited and temporary. We would need sustained attacks on the food supply and logistics train before we get into a dangerous situation. Yeah, I mean, I think this this ends as soon as EBT's turned back on. And November 11th looks like the day. Why that's that's that's a supposedly, and this is by what research I've done, and I could be wrong on the exact day, but November 11th is exactly 61 days since the the government.

SPEAKER_02: 1:13:27

That's when they can fire everyone.

SPEAKER_00: 1:13:28

Right. So what had to happen is in order to fire someone from the federal government, you have to give them a 60-day notice. So once the government shut down and Trump was able to enact these measures, he had to give them a 60-day notice the day of. And November 11th is day 61. So now a lot of these, if y'all looked into like the DSR, which is basically the government program to strong arm people into not speaking out against racial crimes, specifically one side against the other, you know. So that is a big target of this is getting rid of that program. And there's a number of other ones, but day 61 is November 11th. So I would expect it to be turned back on by then.

SPEAKER_02: 1:14:13

Um, and then they'll have their full allotment, and but right, they'll they'll get all of November then at that point. Yeah, so it's really just gonna be how much damage can they cause in like yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:14:28

How bad can they make it for themselves? Because they they, I mean, these if these police had any type of discipline, they wouldn't be on EBT long. And the people who are on it for a decade or more, right? They just they don't have any because if they had discipline, they've had a they'd have a job, so it's they're not going to be able to control themselves. Yeah, they're gonna decide not to control themselves.

SPEAKER_02: 1:14:52

You know what else November 11th is?

SPEAKER_00: 1:14:56

March 10th. I know November 10th is what the Marine Corps birthday. Ah, yeah, we're about to be super insufferable, more so than usual.

SPEAKER_02: 1:15:08

Yes, yes, 250 years, right?

SPEAKER_00: 1:15:15

1770, yeah, 250 years. See, I I I did math for marines, I can do that one.

SPEAKER_02: 1:15:23

Put you in the top one percent of Marines right there.

SPEAKER_00: 1:15:26

Probably it's probably true, because that so in the in the military, you have all these like education courses you can do, and one of them is math for marines, and it's literally just basic arithmetic, right? Uh, because some of these guys, like, yeah, they graduate high school, but they don't really know math very well, and you need math, especially if you're in some type of logistics, or even if you get in to be like a scout sniper, you have to be really good at math, right?

SPEAKER_02: 1:15:49

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_00: 1:15:50

And uh man, these kids doing this math for marines, it's like watching a monkey bang rocks together. It's it's horrible. Like having a tutor guys on like a fifth grade math level. I mean, I had so I had one kid when I was in Okinawa who uh his last name was a rank, right? So his last name was sergeant, and which is gonna be real confusing if he ever made sergeant, but uh he believed that the day he was conceived was his birthday, and that when he was born, he was one year old. I thought he was pulling my leg, and I was like, No, there's no way there's no way you believe it because he kept telling me his age, and then I'm looking at his service record, and I'm like, brother, you're you're not 20 years old, you're 19. He's like, No, I turned one the day I was born. What but so let's let's like let's let's hold on a second.

SPEAKER_02: 1:16:53

This is not just a math deficiency. This is well, there's a lot of deficiency.

SPEAKER_00: 1:16:57

But hold on, hold on. It kind of makes sense if life begins at conception and you're in the womb for 10 months, you're just about a year when you're born.

SPEAKER_02: 1:17:14

Yeah, but he doesn't realize that.

SPEAKER_00: 1:17:16

No, he's not smart enough to understand that. Not at all. But he kind of backed himself into being a genius.

SPEAKER_02: 1:17:31

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_00: 1:17:36

The the funniest times I ever had in my life were in the Marine Corps. And if y'all ever saw hard group chats, it would well, I wouldn't be able to get a job now. If that stuff was ever like be able to go back and look at now, which it might be, who knows?

SPEAKER_02: 1:17:51

I wouldn't I wouldn't worry about it. I mean, there's no way it's like intelligible, no one can understand it, right?

SPEAKER_00: 1:18:00

I mean, we're not writing in code, right?

SPEAKER_02: 1:18:03

But you're probably not writing in black either.

SPEAKER_00: 1:18:06

It's a man, the most racist Marines I knew were black. Or Korean. Definitely the Koreans, for sure. The Koreans and blacks were the right most racist Marines, especially towards each other, right? Yeah, pretty much, yeah. So on any Mew, so in the Marines, we have a Mew, it's a Marine Expeditionary Unit. It's basically a flotilla of you know combat projection, basically. It's like what we sent down to Venezuela as a Mew. On the Mew, you have two mafias. You have the Filipino mafia, because a majority of Navy, because in the Philippines, they there is like a long-running tradition where the Philip Filipinos can serve in the Navy as some type of medical field so they can go back and take that medical training back to the Philippine Islands, right? But then there is also a Puerto Rican mafia, right? So I had a guy that was in my job in the Marines, and he was part of the Puerto Rican mafia on the Muse, and I saw a story about him like three or four years after I got out that he got busted down in Miami giving information to the cartels on when they were gonna get busted because he was running some type of like liaison unit with the local JTAC or something. But uh yeah, he got busted giving them information. He only did like two years and then got out and then he was released. Yeah, it was wild. I guess I guess the judge was a part of Ricky Mafia too.

SPEAKER_02: 1:19:40

Two I mean what two years at Leavenworth, though, right?

SPEAKER_00: 1:19:43

I don't know where he served. I have no idea. I just know I didn't like him. I didn't like him the day I met him. He also said Tacoma weird, he said taco ma. You know, so I immediately didn't like the guy for that. Yes, a huge number of Filipinos are nurses, or in the Navy they're corpsmen, especially greenside. Let's see. Yes, it really is. Basic math and marines is a common condemnation of our public school system. It is, it's and it's people graduate high school because you have to you can't join the Marines unless you graduate or get a GED. I got my GED. Right. So when I graduated high school, I was two credits short, and they didn't offer my class during summer school, and I wasn't gonna go back to school for another year for two credits, so I just got my GED. Let's see.

SPEAKER_02: 1:20:38

We won't go over any well, that's funny. The two shows I do with are with guys who got GEDs instead of high school diplomas. I got a I got a bachelor's degree now. Military degree. Well, you're definitely you you're one up to Anthony and me for sure, then. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:20:59

It's I mean, if the military didn't pay for it, I wouldn't have done it. Yeah, I do not need it, especially for my job. And to be honest with you, well, I'll take that back. There was one course that I was kind of glad I took. It was a it was like basically a just war theory class. So that was a really good course I liked a lot. And and the teacher liked me because he was the only one of my teachers that wasn't a liberal. Um, but that was that was probably the only class I liked taking. But man, I got it's when I looked at how much the military paid for my degree, there is no way I'm sending my kids to college. My cop I they were paying fifteen thousand dollars a semester for me to go to this a city college, right? Really? Yeah. And so, you know, they pay for three years, so they paid, you know, like almost$90,000, like$30,000 a year. Wow. Um, my degree is not worth that whatsoever. Um, so there's no way, there's no way my kids are going to school. Gone to college anyway, unless they're gonna be a doctor or something, but even then it's not even gonna be worth it. But no, I am not a convert, I'm a revert. Maybe one day I'll give you all my reversion story. Yeah, thank you. I appreciate that. Did y'all see my comment on Bree Solstad's X?

SPEAKER_02: 1:22:18

Yes, I saw that.

SPEAKER_00: 1:22:19

She just made some comment about converts, and all I said was that's exactly what a convert was saying.

SPEAKER_02: 1:22:24

You know what? It is exactly what a convert would say.

SPEAKER_00: 1:22:26

It is exactly what a convert would say, but I said it tongue in cheek. I was just like, I don't really, you know, I'm just being silly, right? And some dude white knighted for her real hard and just like got all offended for her, and my brother probably begged her the DMs to send her money. Who knows? See, the question I have is do the Dems have the will to go full bore? Yes, they shot Charlie Kirk. Yeah, like yes, they're willing to go full war, they don't care how many people have to die for them to get their way.

SPEAKER_02: 1:22:59

I mean, if you look at every all all basically all political interests for the last nearly 200 years, you know, you're yeah. I mean, obviously the French Revolution, you have the revolutions of 1848, you know, that was the liberal revolution. You have the black hand, you know, of course, assassinated Archduke Ferdinand, Franz Ferdinand. I mean, yeah, it's the the Russian Revolution thing. They yeah, they're they're always willing to go full war.

SPEAKER_00: 1:23:31

They are very willing to enact, they're very willing to get other people to do violence for them. Yes. Right. That's that's they're far leftists have always been about manipulation and being able to manipulate people into doing things for them. And then they're like the guys who always, you know, they always say something very offensive, and then they say, Well, I'm just joking. Right? Like they did so when they manipulate other people into doing actions for them, they can always separate themselves from like oh, I didn't do it. He did that on his own, you know, which is which then comes into the amount of rhetoric that's coming out now about you know how they're I try not to watch a lot of far left stuff, but when it pops up in my feed, I'll you know, I'll kind of see what they're put my you know finger on the pulse of what's going on. Yeah, but the amount of talk of we're Nazis and we need to be killed and our blood needs to be spilled all over the streets has only gotten worse in Charlotte Kirk.

SPEAKER_01: 1:24:29

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:24:29

They toned it down for like a week and then they ramped it right back up.

SPEAKER_02: 1:24:33

I mean, recent surveys prior to Charlie showed that 30% of them believed political violence was justified.

SPEAKER_00: 1:24:42

Yeah. Was it like 58% or 68%? It was more than half.

SPEAKER_02: 1:24:48

Well, I think 30% it was definitely justified, and more than that said it could, you know, it's sometimes justified.

SPEAKER_00: 1:24:58

Sometimes justified just means they think it's justified, but they're looking over the shoulder to make sure everybody else thinks that too.

SPEAKER_02: 1:25:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:25:13

Unrelated went to a so this is from Ocean 9988. Yo, unrelated went to a college homecoming this weekend. Six people got shot, one dead. How do we prepare you? Don't go to them. Like, like I try not to sports events at all. Now, I do like college football. I live in the South. You get over it, right? But I don't obsess about it, right? I don't plan my Saturdays around. I went camping two weeks in a row, didn't watch any football. But I do my boys' birthday is always like around the like the last weekend of college football, and we're Auburn fans, and I'm pretty sure that's when I realized that God made me Catholic because being an Auburn fan is a lot of suffering. But I'm taking him to a game at the end of the year, and that's kind of his birthday gift every year because he loves it. But I'm in a Auburn's a very conservative town. There's a lot of police there, right? But you won't see me doing like an after game tailgate. I'm we're going right back to well, after we roll tumors, if we win, we'll go right back to the car and we'll go home. Right? But because I live like an hour and a half away, so I'm gonna have to drive home. But just don't go to the places where those things can happen, right? We have concerts, sports. Yeah, anywhere, anywhere you go and you can't carry, don't go.

unknown: 1:26:35

Right?

SPEAKER_00: 1:26:36

If you can help it, right? Sometimes you make a measured decision about it, though.

SPEAKER_02: 1:26:40

Most security at those places really is just security theater. Like someone can get in there with the weapon if they really want to, and then you're disarmed.

SPEAKER_00: 1:26:49

I can't tell you how many people sneak into Auburn games with liquor, all kinds of liquor, all the time. Because it's they're going walking through a metal detector and they're expecting the metal detector to catch anything, and they're not patting anybody down, they're not wanding anybody really. Sometimes they do.

SPEAKER_02: 1:27:04

Um most of the time, those metal detectors haven't been calibrated in since they were installed. And if they're not calibrated properly, they're not detecting crap.

SPEAKER_00: 1:27:14

But I can tell you which ones are calibrated because it's always the ones I go through. Like I've never walked through a a well, I'll take that back. I have walked through once here at our city hall, which just aren't turned on for some reason. But usually at these big events, every single one I go through, I get dinged for like, oh yeah, I forgot I have my keys or something. So if you don't want to, if you don't want to go through a working one, don't follow me in because I will hit it every time. The GED is worth more than high school. Man, it's a lot less time. You know, like you can study for a GED in like three weeks and be done.

SPEAKER_02: 1:28:02

Cradle aura with convert vibes. He should put that in his Twitter profile.

SPEAKER_00: 1:28:09

My my wife's a convert. So's mine. So maybe one day, maybe one show I'll give you all my my re-version and her conversion story. But yeah, my wife was she grew up in Alabama. The only Catholic she ever knew was one girl that went to school with her. So when I came back to the faith, she was upset because she felt she told me, you know, this is pretty much verbatim, that she felt like I was becoming like a Muslim, right? Because she that's what she thought Catholics were. They were like Muslims, right? And so being here in Alabama, you have to know your faith because everyone's trying to pull you out of it. EWTN's here here in Birmingham. So, you know, we have a lot of good resources here. This is actually a pretty good diocese. We have better you know Novus Oromasses than most other places I've traveled to. Um now we do still have some bad ones, don't get me wrong, but we have a majority of good ones, very orthodox priests here. Uh, but we still have our issues too.

SPEAKER_02: 1:29:14

Did when you say you reverted, like, did you ever consider yourself another faith or like an atheist, or were you just not practicing?

SPEAKER_00: 1:29:25

So when I turned 18, my dad kicked me out of the house because I didn't have a job, which is the best thing he could have done for me. But I read a book called The Holy Blood, Holy Grail. Have you ever read it? You ever heard of it?

SPEAKER_02: 1:29:39

Well, is it is it one of those like that Dan Brown based his stuff off of?

SPEAKER_00: 1:29:44

Yeah, yeah. So it's basically a book written by these false historians that basically made the premise that Jesus and Mary Magdalene had were married, had kids in the Salt of France, yeah, and the the the grail was actually their bloodline.

unknown: 1:30:00

Right.

SPEAKER_01: 1:30:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:30:01

So I read that. And because like I an indictment on Catholic schools in Louisville, Kentucky. It sounded plausible to me. Because I went to an all-boys Catholic high school in Louisville. And I remember in my sophomore year, my religion teacher, who was also a coach, but he basically what he said to us was that we don't really teach Catholicism here because we let everyone make the decision if they want to be Catholic or not. I can kind of understand that, but like I'm going to a Catholic school. I think you should teach me Catholicism. Now that I look back on it, at the time I was like, oh, that's so, you know, that's so smart. Yeah, I completely believe that. But uh yeah, I read the Holy Blood, Holy Grail. That made a lot of sense to me. And I went deeper down that. And I was kind of more of a like a universalist for a while. Uh I always I always believed there was God. I never was an atheist. And I wasn't agnostic. I just thought had the idea that I had the thought in my in my head that God just presents himself differently to other cultures in order to best, you know, get them to know him. And there's nothing more than seeing the evil side of people that to just really rip that out of you. Like when I go to Afghanistan and I saw how horrible evil people were, like, there's no way God presented himself that way to the Muslims. So then I was kind of my wife was you know Baptist, and we kind of went to some Baptist churches for a while, and then I reverted, you know, 11 years ago. And then my wife came to the church in 2019. Okay. But yeah, it was uh it's it was an interesting road, we'll say. My wife, so my daughter right now is reading Father Lissance's Catholic Girls' Guide. Yeah, I've the boys and the girls, yeah. So one one piece of uh um parent advice for y'all when your kids start learning how to read, offer to pay them a dollar for each book they read. They'll think they're taking advantage of you, right? But they're not. So all my kids know you get a dollar for every book you read. So my kids read a lot, right? Well, the Father Lizan's book, it's it's it's a thick read, so she's I have to like sweeten the pot for her to get to read this.

SPEAKER_02: 1:32:21

Um it's yeah, it's thick and like it's um it's very not story driven, right? So it's it can be a slog.

SPEAKER_00: 1:32:29

Yeah. So I offered her like a dollar per section, so it's basically about every 75 pages, right? And she got through a section last night and she was asking me about it today at dinner. And she asked me, she goes, Daddy, were you and mommy a mixed marriage? And I was like, Well, first of all, my wife's not Sicilian, she's not black, so no. Uh but then like I was like, What do you mean by mixed? She's like, you know, like you were a Catholic and mommy was not. I was like, Well, yeah, technically you are. She goes, Well, it says in the book, like those marriages don't have a good success rate, right? I was like, they're 100% true. That's 100% true. Me and mommy are an exception, right? And that that's you know, mostly due to our desire to do the will of God and to seek his heart, whereas a lot of people don't do that, right? We we are willing to give up living in a suburban area and having a you know vacation home and all that stuff so we can have a homestead and I can spend 30 hours a week chasing animals around so y'all have a good source of food, right? Like I'm willing to sacrifice some stuff. But my wife will tell people all the time, you know, we bring this comes up a lot at when we have dinners with other couples. The hardest part of our marriage was when we weren't on the same page when it came to the faith. When I reverted and she was not interested in the Catholic Church at all, that was the hardest time in her life. It wasn't when I was in Afghanistan getting shot at every day and driving over IEDs. It wasn't when I was working for the fire department in Georgia and going into fully involved house fires. It was when we were going to different churches on Sunday. That is when she thought we weren't gonna make it. Right. But I had a very good, some very good advice given to me by a very good priest in Georgia, Father Jack Durkin, uh, St. Monica's in Duluth. He's a very good priest. He basically told me, You're not gonna convince her, you need to spend time in front of our Lord in adoration, and you need to pray for her, and you need to love her, and that's the only thing you can do. And three years after that, she came into the church. Right. So we stressed our kids, you will only marry a Catholic. No, and if we do our job right, that will work.

SPEAKER_02: 1:34:48

Yeah, uh, yeah, I have to agree. Yeah, my wife was raised Baptist as well, and yeah, the hardest part of our marriage was definitely the period it was, you know, it was before I I don't like saying reverted because I never believed anything else. I just was stupid and figured I had time to live how I wanted and go to confession when I decided I was done doing that, and then when I decided I was done doing that, it's like, well, that was stupid. What if I had died? But yeah, the period when when I was away from the sacraments, and and she wasn't really involved in in her the faith she was raised in at that time either. But yeah, it was definitely the period where we weren't Catholic together. That was definitely the hardest.

SPEAKER_00: 1:35:36

Yeah, I um I am fully convinced that if I had uh son of a I am fully convinced that if I had died in Afghanistan, I would 100% be in hell right now, without a doubt in my mind whatsoever. So I can only interpret that as God didn't want me to die yet. He had better things for me. And it was more than likely bringing my wife into the church because I think she's going to help a lot of people convert. I this weekend we were at this uh at the fraternist event. I was joking around with one of the guys at around the bonfire, and I was like, Look, I get it, you know, y'all love my wife, and you just put up with me, right? But I think it's kind of true. I'm a little bit hard of a hard of a pill to swallow, and I get that. I'm not everybody's cup of tea, like not everybody's gonna like me. I'm okay with that, right? But everyone loves my wife. But I definitely outkicked my coverage when it comes to my wife. She is a phenomenal person, and I'm thankful I have her because man, she's the only person that can put up with me for more than 24 hours at a time. So if I ever lost her, man, it is gonna be lonely. I'm gonna hire like an old Alpair and just like take care of the kids while I'm at work. Go, you know, live in a room down the hall.

SPEAKER_02: 1:37:01

There's that shed that kind of gets internet out there she could live in.

SPEAKER_00: 1:37:04

Look, she she on the internet. Women shouldn't be on the internet anyway.

SPEAKER_02: 1:37:10

Adrian really is Southern Anthony.

SPEAKER_00: 1:37:13

Nothing good comes from women being on the internet.

SPEAKER_02: 1:37:18

That's so true.

SPEAKER_00: 1:37:20

See, my wife wasn't crazy. Basically, she ocean says I basically thought Catholics were Hindus who overworshiped Jesus until middle school. Look, when you grow up in Alabama and you're you know so funny story about the one Catholic friend my wife had in school is now a really good friend of ours at our Light Mass Parish. Oh, really? So she met so like my wife got married to me, moved to North Carolina, but we were there for five years. We moved to Georgia with there for five years. We moved here in 2018, and she met her at mass one day in 2021, like 20 years, almost 20 years after she last saw her.

SPEAKER_02: 1:37:58

Wow.

SPEAKER_00: 1:37:59

Yeah, that's crazy. What paddle can do with a tree branch. Sometimes all you got is a tree branch, right? You might have to just use a hand just by yourself.

SPEAKER_02: 1:38:14

I'm sure our wives think that they paddle can do with uh the tree branch of us sometimes.

SPEAKER_00: 1:38:24

All right, so let's uh if anybody's got any questions, we got. I mean, I got 15 more minutes before I have to put these kids. I I let the kids go upstairs and watch TV. They're probably watching Star Wars. Which Star Wars? So we I we start I started them off with four, five, and six. Of course. We only watched one, two, and three. And then I let them watch The Mandalorian. Okay. Uh well, at least my two olders. My two youngers. My my second youngest girl, she's really sensitive to images. So, like, she can't even watch Lord of the Rings. It gives her nightmares, like all the goblins and works and stuff. Yeah, yeah. So I'd be very picket, picket, but they're they're probably watching something. That or I I reintroduced the younger kids to Doc McStuffins on Disney. Because my daughter used to my oldest daughter used to love it. The Mandalorian is very Catholic. Like next time you watch it, look at it as him as a missionary, right? And just look keep that in your mind when you're watching it, right? I can see that. Yeah, I can see that. But I got I got a little bit of time if anybody's got any questions, want to add some stuff. Did you buy any more guns this weekend?

SPEAKER_02: 1:39:41

Yes. This is my last one for a long time because I'm literally at the point where I go into the gun store and it's like I don't want any of this because I basically have it all. I I picked up a Benelli M4.

SPEAKER_00: 1:40:00

Oh, good. The uh 250th anniversary edition for the Marine Corps.

SPEAKER_02: 1:40:04

No, that's the Beretta E300. Well, that is the Beretta, yeah. This Benelli has one too, don't they? I'm not sure. This so this is the Benelli. Well, it's it this one was technically the M1014 or whatever the current military model number is, but land and tactical makes great firearms, especially berettas.

SPEAKER_00: 1:40:30

I would before you buy anything from them, though, I would suggest you go find regular guy training on YouTube, and he's done a really good review of one of their berettas. Some of their internal parts cannot be used in other berettas.

SPEAKER_02: 1:40:46

Yeah, the any any of their berettas that are optic cut, they had to custom do custom internals on it on it to get it to work. So, yeah, that's that's kind of proprietary at that point. But they do good good HKs, the P30s as well. But I I I don't have a Langdon yet.

SPEAKER_00: 1:41:07

I I want to get one for my wife. I want to get her like a cheetah with an optic on it. Yeah, yeah, that would be cool. Because I she right now she's got a I taught her how to shoot with the 92. She loves it. But it's the 92 shoots nice. She can't carry it because it's so heavy. I mean, she's more than likely to beat somebody to death before she shoots somebody with it. I don't I don't need another AR though. So let me ask you this. How many kids do you have? Four. How many ARs do you have?

SPEAKER_02: 1:41:44

Including including uh 308s. It's gotta be like six or seven. Yeah, you're probably good. Yeah, I mean I got we got one for everyone in the family.

SPEAKER_00: 1:42:01

Yeah, you need one for everyone in the family. I have six. Uh yeah, I have six. Technically two of mine because one's a three or but like I'll get another one for somebody if they need it. Right. Like one for my wife that she likes to shoot, and then one for each kid as they leave the house. Alright, got it. Two years. What like is this is is this like the equivalent of like the oh yeah? Is that like the same thing? The six seven. I don't know. I don't it's just like a just something stupid to say.

SPEAKER_02: 1:42:36

Yeah, yeah. It's it's like how we you we used to say whatever, you know.

SPEAKER_00: 1:42:44

All right, what would the uh here you are? What's a good concealed carry? One that you feel comfortable carrying, and then that's reliable. Like it that's up to you. You have to find one that that you like to shoot that fits your hand, that's reliable. Yeah, um, I'd stay away from any revolvers because you're not gonna shoot it well. I would stay away from Springfield XDMs because they have too many safeties on them, and and you'll have issues shooting that when when time comes to actually do it.

SPEAKER_02: 1:43:11

And they're the the XD the XD XES XDM, they're just not comfortable to shoot either.

SPEAKER_00: 1:43:18

The ergonomics are weird. My my suggestion would be to go find a local range that rents handguns and just go through them and see which ones you like shooting the best. Yeah, I I carry now my CZ Shadow Compact because I'm I can shoot it really well. I was hitting steel at 80 yards this weekend, and it fits my hand really well. But I like to carry my Glock as well because it's light, and I don't have to worry about it rubbing a hole in my shirt when I can still carry.

SPEAKER_02: 1:43:51

Yeah, I mean, as someone who's has has way too many handguns and has carried just about all of them. I mean, and obviously shot all of them for the most part, they all work well, they're all generally reliable. I mean, obviously, there's some exceptions, yeah. But if it's from a reputable brand and uh you can shoot it well and you have a good holster for it, it's gonna work. So don't don't don't think too much into it.

SPEAKER_00: 1:44:20

We had we had an argument on our telegram. By the way, y'all need to get in our telegram. The competition is still going. Friday's the last day to for your submission for the competition. The rules are in the competition tab in the telegram. And the prize is I'm gonna whoever wins, I'm buying them an avoiding Babylon shirt of their choice. But get that we had an argument in the in the telegram chat about you know iron sights are are red dots. Okay, and the biggest thing that iron sights have over red dots has always been their reliability. Iron sights don't run out of batteries, they don't break well regularly, they don't break. I have I've had more iron sights break off my handguns than I've ever had red dots break off my handguns, but uh I've also shot with iron sights a whole lot longer than I have red dots, but uh but red dots have have regressed to the point now where they're very very reliable. It's gonna take it takes a lot to break them.

SPEAKER_02: 1:45:18

Super reliable battery lasts literally years at multiple years, so probably still change it once a year. It's one of those things where a red dot is is great for people getting into it, right? It it gives them that that it can help them learn how the you know the movements of their hand change where they're aiming the gun and stuff like that. But uh still I I think learning on irons initially is the way to go and then and then move to a red dot because if you get good with irons and then can figure out how to find a red dot quickly.

SPEAKER_00: 1:46:00

Um I think the learning curve is a lot easier on irons, so I don't I wouldn't necessarily think you have you would need to learn on irons first, just because it's super easy. Once you figure out irons, it's it's the same every time, right? Like I was teaching a guy a few weeks ago who's never shot a gun in his life, and I had him hitting dead center, you know, at seven yards within about two mags.

unknown: 1:46:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:46:23

Right. So it didn't take a whole lot to get him there. But red dot is like shooting on on easy mode. It is, yeah. Especially if you have you know poor sight, and as you're getting older for you old guys, you know, as your sight becomes worse, or you guys who already have you know coke bottles, you know, the red dot's gonna be a lot easier for you to shoot with than than iron sights, and you're gonna be able to shoot because you don't with when you have iron sights and and you're and you're pushing out, you have to have those sights level, right? Whereas with a red dot, you can have it canted a little bit, and wherever the red dots sit, it's still gonna hit there. Yep, right. So it may your window may be big and your dot may be like up towards the top, and that's where your dot that's where your shot's gonna hit, right? So shooting with red dots is much preferable. That's why I can shoot with my handgun steel at you know, it's a it's a six by twelve steel at about 80 yards. Now I'm you know having to have my red dot, you know, probably a good two feet above the target because of the projection of the round, but yeah, like I mean, I was hitting every single day. As once I figure out how far it needed to be above, I was hitting it every single time. The Gunsburgers.

SPEAKER_02: 1:47:35

Oh so speaking of 320s, no one said anything about 320s.

SPEAKER_00: 1:47:42

So I'm at mass on Saturday at uh in our campout weekend, and I noticed like what the guy in front of me is got a concealed carries outside the waistband on his hip, and is a 320.

SPEAKER_02: 1:47:54

Was a bug haul because that's what he carries.

SPEAKER_00: 1:47:56

No, but every time like uh like every time he bent over or or you know genuine or whatever, and it was pointed at me. I was like, Lord, if you're gonna take me, take me at mass. There's no better place to go than at mass.

SPEAKER_02: 1:48:09

It would have been funny if every time he did that, you just die.

SPEAKER_00: 1:48:17

Bookhall does seem like a revolver guy, like specifically like a python.

SPEAKER_02: 1:48:24

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like Rick Grimes, yeah. Like the name of name, he just kind of like bends the wrist, you know. Type okay. So I know I said I probably wouldn't buy a gun for a long time again, but I have been looking at the python specifically because of The Walking Dead. Yeah, you know, it's I get it. Plus, you live in bear country, you should have one anyway. I know, but it's hard to justify. I can't say I need a six-inch, you know, cold python in 357 when I have two 44 Magnums and a 500 Smith and Wesson. You know, like I don't need it in 357. Unless you guys have good reasons, let me know.

SPEAKER_00: 1:49:07

I mean, you should just have one for posterity's sake, is my opinion. It's a good, it's a good heirloom piece to hand down, you know, you know, but you when you get it, you've got to get a nice, you know, leather holster. Oh, yeah, and like a like on like a sagging gun belt, yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 1:49:23

You know, be amazing. I so I have a single action cult, you know, cult single action army replica, not not you know, real one from the day, but so it's what brand is it? I forget, but it's the hand of God from uh Russell Crowe's character in 310 Yuma. And so I brought it into a leather shop here that does holsters, and I'm like, do you have you know what kind of tooling can you put on a leather holster that would work good with this? Turns out they had the exact tooling from Russell Crowe's holster in 30 Yuma. Wow, so yeah, I I almost wore it as a Halloween costume last year, but that's amazing. I bet that was pricey too. The holster was as much as the gun, yes. I believe it. And the gun was the gun wasn't expensive, you know, for a single-action army replica. It was like 600, but it was worth it.

SPEAKER_00: 1:50:27

Yeah, good leather, good leather is. Find somebody who does really good leather work, like it they're worth the money you pay them, you know, because that that will last forever. Is this my wife telling me I need another gun? That's exactly what that was.

SPEAKER_02: 1:50:39

That must be that must be what it is, right? There's nothing else as well.

SPEAKER_00: 1:50:43

I watched it, it came up as soon as you know, she's like, You're like, Do I really need to buy one? Yes, you do. That just means she wants more fish aquarium stuff. Is that is that the deal? Every time you buy a gun, you have to buy an equivalent amount of fish aquarium stuff for her.

SPEAKER_02: 1:50:58

That was the original deal. She's since realized that she there's no fish aquarium stuff that would keep up with the guns, so it doesn't have to be equivalent necessarily. Oh, see, she wasn't told you she loves revolvers, she's really into revolvers.

SPEAKER_00: 1:51:17

I get it. I mean, uh they're just man, they're hard to shoot, like they're just because you can't grip them like a normal, you know, striker fired pistol. You really don't want to have your hand over you know the uh no no barrel or over the uh stroking cylinder, cylinder, there it is, because that that flame look like will burn you uh on my bigger revolvers, it will could take your thumb off. Yeah, but they're heart being the hardest shoot. That's why you always see Rick Grimes like do the one-hand, like you know, urban gangster style, you know, halfcock thing.

SPEAKER_02: 1:51:57

They they they were designed to be shot that way, they really were. You better have a strong wrist. Uh yeah, yeah, you do you don't do the the 500 like that, but the 500 like that. You don't, you just don't.

SPEAKER_00: 1:52:12

Do you have a desert eagle yet? No. I've I mean, obviously, like you know, you know what those are originally designed for movies? Israeli officers to shoot down helicopters. This was like in the time of like back in the 60s, 70s, the glass bubble helicopters was to be able to shoot them down.

SPEAKER_02: 1:52:36

So they they're actually they were made and designed designed, and they're made still here in Minnesota. Magnum Research is based here in Minnesota. But it's one of those things where like you, you know, you see a video from anyone who's actually has one, and they just you know jam every three or four shots, basically. So it's plus the ammo, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:53:02

So spendy. It's just like uh it's an ego bar more than anything. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, there is a have you been have you seen the new Kimber striker fire pistols they've been putting out?

SPEAKER_02: 1:53:15

Kind of. And I so Kimber, I mean Kimber started as a really high-end 1911 company that made good guns, and then a certain uh what's his name? He's in charge of SIG right now. I forget his name. Yeah, but the president of SIG was running Kimber, and they started having quality control issues, basically ran them almost into the ground, but they're getting better. Like, you know, I'm seeing their 2011s are actually decent. I have one of their 2011s that came out, I think, two years ago. But I don't know if I like if I'm gonna buy Kimber, it's gonna be a 1911 or 2011. Why would I buy a Kimber striker fire?

SPEAKER_00: 1:54:02

Yeah, uh so my first fine, but it was heavy, so I didn't carry very long. I traded in for the Glock eventually, but supposedly their 2K11 is very nice. Ben Stoger is very impressed by it. But apparently their striker five pistols are really nice and really um, so I thought about buying one just to try it out.

SPEAKER_02: 1:54:36

If you do let me know. Well they moved to they moved to Georgia from Yonkers. Yep, that's right.

SPEAKER_00: 1:54:43

And so you just like you know, I think Remington moved down here to Alabama.

SPEAKER_02: 1:54:48

Somebody who moved to Alabama isn't is where's SIG base now?

SPEAKER_00: 1:54:56

Isn't it like one of the Carolinas or Virginia?

SPEAKER_02: 1:55:02

I can't show that on camera, that's right. We'll get canceled. I forget what it is.

SPEAKER_00: 1:55:06

That's why we had to get the new channel. That's why we only have like 19 live viewers. I know because we had to come onto our own channel.

SPEAKER_02: 1:55:13

That and apparently too much Tylenol talk.

SPEAKER_00: 1:55:18

Too much Tylenol talk. Uh let's see. Oh no, we have Kimber here too in Troy.

SPEAKER_02: 1:55:27

Alabama?

SPEAKER_00: 1:55:28

Yeah. Kimber has a large manufacturing facility in Troy, Alabama. My favorite Southern priest is in Troy. He's hilarious in IG. Someone asked him if he could use a solo cup at mass instead of uh chalice, and he just went. He was like on a 10-minute tirade. But how rednecked do you have to be to ask that question?

SPEAKER_02: 1:56:00

Do you think those uh drawings of the supposed Glock AR are real? Do you think they really are worth it?

SPEAKER_00: 1:56:07

Uh yeah, because Brazil, I think it was Brazil, it got like a hundred of them. So they're they're being literally bought them. Yeah, they're being like there are people who are buying them, and they're apparently very like affordable, they're like 13-1400 bucks.

SPEAKER_02: 1:56:24

Well, I mean, the uh Glock has always been decent good value for the money. I mean, they really are. I mean, yeah, they're you know, a Glock 19 is more than the RXM or something, but it's it's less than uh HKVP9. Yeah, Glock AR. So apparently the Slovak police are using the Glock AR-15. So they procured 180 rifles, the Slovak police.

SPEAKER_00: 1:56:55

Um like Brazil or Peru, some South American country got some too. Because they because I remember seeing the invoice, and it apparently included ammo, so it's hard to figure out how much they actually paid. But no, Paul, they're not polymer. They're not ours.

SPEAKER_02: 1:57:14

I mean, I guess just another AR doesn't excite me all that much, I guess.

SPEAKER_00: 1:57:22

Really, really, what has what's coming about now is you want more reliability, more accuracy. Yeah, more than anything. If you get those two things hammered out, you will sell a bunch of that rifle. But I mean that's why you've seen like Delton go out, Anderson go out, you know, a few of these AR, because they just their quality control isn't very good. That's true, and so they're not very accurate, and they're not very reliable. They've so they've gone out of business. People to like now we can go to Palmetto State and buy a pretty reliable, accurate rifle for like 600 bucks. Like, and because Palmetto State's not worried about making a huge markup because they sell enough in volume, they can you know sell them for cheaper. Because their whole goal is to get everything as in common use as possible, so it helps out more with laws, but wow.

SPEAKER_02: 1:58:14

I just I guess I don't know many twelve hundred dollar ARs that aren't already reliable sub-MOA guns, you know what I mean.

SPEAKER_00: 1:58:23

And I think for a lot of these contracts for Glock, it comes down to after support, you know, aftermarket support, you know, like warranty type stuff and taking care of it because Glock's very good, their warranties are very good. If something goes out in your Glock, they're gonna fix it. Like if you live near, like I'm an hour and a half away from Smyrna, Georgia. If I needed something worked on my Glock, I could just drive over there and they would take care of it that day. Really? Yeah, that's awesome. So it's it's all about the act the support afterwards that a lot of these municipalities want. But don't ocean, you probably want to stay from mo away from Mobile, Alabama, then because Mobile, Alabama is very Catholic and they are very southern. What's that's what party originated?

SPEAKER_02: 1:59:10

Mobile does seem like a cool city.

SPEAKER_00: 1:59:13

Mobile's it's fine, you know. It's like a it's kind of old money, and it's very touristy now.

SPEAKER_02: 1:59:19

They have all the the river casinos, right?

SPEAKER_00: 1:59:22

Yeah, you got the casinos near as well, and then just west of it is Biloxi and Mississippi. So, but mobile's nice. Like if I didn't have you know this farm and stuff here, I wouldn't mind moving to Mobile. It'd be nice to be in Alabama in a majority Catholic area. Whereas where I'm now is not like that at all. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 1:59:43

What are what are your thoughts on the uh high pressure like 556 rounds that are that the army's that the army's getting now? Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 1:59:54

Because it's a it's a high the the case is hybrid, like it, you know, so it's it's like the like the two sit the 277 Fury.

SPEAKER_02: 2:00:00

Cases or yeah, yeah. I mean, are are they saying those high pressure rounds work in current yeah, current barrels, current, you know, all current bolt chip bulk carriers, everything?

SPEAKER_00: 2:00:14

It's just gonna wear out barrels faster, but how much faster? Is it negligible? Who knows? Right? I until they test it out for a while. But I mean, I don't think we're because everyone's always looking like what's the round that's gonna kill the 556? Nothing, nothing will ever the 5'5 has become the best all-round use round because you can shoot long range with it, you can carry a lot of it, and it's deadly, right? So, you know, like you know, six arcs, oh, six arc is gonna replace it. You can carry like half the rounds with six arc. Yeah, you can shoot out a lot farther, and it's ballistics a lot better, and it's gives more you know uh pressure uh per foot, you know, uh energy, energy, yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 2:00:58

Terminal terminal energy, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 2:00:59

Yeah, so like, but what does that matter if the biggest issue with firearms is missing, like in in in in accuracy, because it always comes down to who's shooting the rifle, right? So the 556 kind of you know supports that a little bit because it gives you a lot more rounds to be able to get on target with.

SPEAKER_02: 2:01:18

Yeah, and yeah, the uh the uh I would imagine that's part of the purpose, you know. That's why they're why they're going with 277 fury right now, anyways.

SPEAKER_00: 2:01:31

Everything is projected to then be used against near-peer adversaries, right? And Russians wear body armor, yeah. So that's what a lot of this is about. So it's always gonna be that. Yes, that's specifically what they're used for.

SPEAKER_02: 2:01:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 2:01:47

Like I use on my 300 blackout, I use subsonic ammo with it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:01:52

The one thing you have to be careful for is you need, depending on the rifle you're using in its operating system, you need a rifle that can cycle with subsonic ammo out of a out of a suppressor.

SPEAKER_00: 2:02:07

Yeah. So you you when it comes to using subsonics on with a suppressor, you kind of have to, it's called tune your rifle. You have to make sure your buffer spring and your buffer are the right weight. You if you have an adjustable gas block, that you've got enough gas coming in, but not too much gas. There's a little bit of playing with it to figure out what's best. So the best thing to do is to figure out the ejection uh pattern, right? You really want it to come out as close to three o'clock as possible. If it's coming out four or five o'clock, it's too much gas. If it's two or one o'clock, it's not enough.

SPEAKER_02: 2:02:40

And you'll you'll you'll you'll learn how to feel it too. Because you'll feel the change in recoil, you know, as you adjust that gas. So yeah. Oh man, they're really getting autistic tonight.

SPEAKER_00: 2:02:54

308 is way easier to find. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 2:02:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 2:03:00

Like it's nice to have a a you know, a Gucci round, but if you can't find it anywhere, what's the point of having it?

SPEAKER_02: 2:03:06

And really the only advantage six arc has is that it it runs out of a AR, you know, 15 frame, right? You don't need a bigger a bigger rifle like an AR 10 pattern rifle 4 6 arc, but other than that. That wasn't me. That was you. What was it? Oh, did you not even hear what I said?

SPEAKER_00: 2:03:32

I just heard it about uh the six arc, and yeah, it comes out of AR-15. But 3-0's I mean, 3-0's fine. Like it's it's a very universal round. You can shoot out long range and it's got a lot of punch, right? So a lot of better rifles run 308. It just your shoulder's gonna hurt when you shoot about 30 rounds through it. It's gonna be it's gonna be real rough on you, which is where like a 556. Like my 556, like it's like shooting a 22. Like, I can't even tell because I've got it tuned so well. Can't do that 308. That's just there's just too much mass coming back at you when you shoot it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:04:14

All right. Caseless ammo unfortunately died. Died uh in HK's fever dreams back in the early 90s.

SPEAKER_00: 2:04:24

Have you ever seen the the Mythbusters where they use like a meat bullet?

SPEAKER_02: 2:04:30

Yeah, or they try to recreate the uh the JFK. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 2:04:36

It's it's pretty much in the same vein as that stuff. Good in theory, but when physics actually take get involved, that there's just it's no way to get it to work.

SPEAKER_02: 2:04:51

HK's fever dreams, all yeah. Some of the H some of the memes about the new uh changes Glock is doing for because of the switches, you know, it's where Glock is like, uh, if I just if I'll you know, if I just change this to where they can't use the switch in HK's like have you ever seen an inner city youth with a with a Mark 23? I don't think so. It's because they're 2500 bucks.

SPEAKER_00: 2:05:22

Yeah, I I just don't understand. I mean, I guess it's all for legal reasons, but within two weeks of the new blocks coming out, someone's gonna figure out an FRT for it. Like, I just I just don't understand.

SPEAKER_02: 2:05:33

Well, yeah, I mean this whole thing this whole thing's not even considering FRTs. Like, who cares about this, you know, a switch which is technically illegal when they're they're they're working on legal FRTs. Yep.

SPEAKER_00: 2:05:46

Not that I trust that certain demographic to be able to figure that out necessarily, but they can't hit a thing. Did you ever see the grand thumb video? I think we've talked about this before, where he shoots it like seven yards away, and I think he like once out of a whole mag. This is a guy who's trained in shooting. All right, if he ain't hit nothing, oh Jamal down the street ain't hit nothing either.

SPEAKER_02: 2:06:14

Well, not hitting what he's aiming at. He'll just hit the ten kids surrounding it.

SPEAKER_00: 2:06:18

Yeah, he's hitting something, it just ain't what he's aiming at. Yeah. All right, then I'm gonna cut it. I was gonna say two hours, ten minutes.

SPEAKER_02: 2:06:28

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 2:06:29

It's pretty long. You have something pulled up down there. What is that?

SPEAKER_02: 2:06:32

Oh, it's just my Twitter feed.

SPEAKER_00: 2:06:35

You weren't gonna show us anything?

SPEAKER_02: 2:06:37

No. The that I just I'm used to having that up whenever I'm because Anthony sends everything via Twitter DM, so I always have my Twitter feed up and ready to share.

SPEAKER_00: 2:06:47

I just see a very nice GIF playing over and over again.

SPEAKER_02: 2:06:51

Well, it's the it's the it's the gif everyone's seen a billion times. Did you say gif? Yeah, I meant gif. Shut up. We've all seen this before.

SPEAKER_00: 2:07:09

We have we have strayed so far from Jod. I'm a GIF guy, right? Like I was like, it's always been GIF. Like I've I've known GIF since you know the 90s, right? Back when it was like you know, bitmap and jpegs and gifts, right? But it was always gif. Yeah, I was gonna say then the creator comes out, like, no, it's gif. Like then you should have started it with a J.

SPEAKER_02: 2:07:41

I I'm it's to the point now where I'm getting confused as to what I used to say because everyone's you hear them both so often now, but yeah, growing up it was always gif. Yes, because it's graphic interface, something, right?

SPEAKER_00: 2:07:56

Then we had the Mandela effect happen, and now it's JIF.

SPEAKER_02: 2:07:59

Yeah, and GIF is peanut butter. GIF is peanut butter, just like Adrian's drink tonight.

SPEAKER_00: 2:08:05

Yes, peanut butter and jelly, some black brain moonshine and peanut butter whiskey. I'm gonna have to try that. That's good, man. I mean, it's not one of those ones where you're gonna keep drinking a lot of them, but like one, it's good. It's a spot. Very good. Just like my my eggnog. Now I'm gonna go get eggnog because I love eggnog. My mother-in-law, every time she sees it, she brings it and gives me some because I'm like the only person in the house that likes eggnog. We are not an eggnog family. I'm an eggnog, I'm a nogger myself.

SPEAKER_02: 2:08:36

Uh uh, same here. My wife will drink it if it's got alcohol in it.

SPEAKER_00: 2:08:41

And I don't think my kids like it. My kids do not. My kids love milk, they don't like eggnog. So much milk, they drink so much milk. Well, get a cow.

SPEAKER_02: 2:08:54

So we did milk and bananas.

SPEAKER_00: 2:09:00

An apple, yeah. We got all this, it's right here at the front. Come get it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:09:06

No, no, no, not the milk. The milk's all the way at the back.

SPEAKER_00: 2:09:09

That is true. They make you work for it. Yeah, like get your at least your fat self back there and get you some milk, fatty. And then you go back there, and it's really just a bunch of patties back there because that's where the ice cream is, too.

SPEAKER_02: 2:09:25

I I honestly could not tell you the last time I was in a Walmart.

SPEAKER_00: 2:09:29

Man, I try to stay away from it. It it I try it for the same reason I don't go to the airport because it's like Walmart of the skies.

SPEAKER_02: 2:09:38

Yeah, honey, honey, specifically, it's like the spirit airlines of the skies. Bill Tong is just beef jerky. Yeah, it's just South African beef jerky.

SPEAKER_00: 2:09:49

It's just it's just people don't want to say beef jerky, so they call it Biltong. Going to Bucky's getting me some Biltong. The game goes to goes to Bucky's for built on.

SPEAKER_02: 2:09:59

They go to Whole Foods for Biltong.

SPEAKER_00: 2:10:02

Bucky's got Biltong.

SPEAKER_02: 2:10:04

They do, yeah, yeah. They do. Darn it, quick trip, step up your game.

SPEAKER_00: 2:10:10

Racetrack, quick trip. Everybody got it. Biltong everywhere. Man, when I get IG ads for built on, like it's jump the shark. Yes, Buckeyes has built on.

unknown: 2:10:26

Right.

SPEAKER_02: 2:10:26

They have Buckeyes branded. Here I thought Quick Trip was actually somewhat competing with Bucky's, but apparently not. Apparently, Bucky's. Have you been to a Bucky's? No, I've never seen a Buckeyes, man. Bro, that's that's right in that Mecca. I've been south of the Mason Dixon line twice in my life. Come on down, man. I got a Bucky's right by my house. No, three is Oklahoma's technically south of it, right? The Mason Dixon?

SPEAKER_00: 2:10:53

Yeah. I don't think so. I mean, I never extended that far. We're gonna take like a hard, hard, like southern drift, like when it gets the Mississippi. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02: 2:11:06

Was Missouri? No, because but you had the Missouri compromise, right? That started the whole thing. Yeah, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_00: 2:11:14

I think like because I know the Mason Dixon went you know along the Ohio River. Yeah and then down the Mississippi. Well, Texas was a slave state. It was, but but it wasn't in the Mason south of the Mason Dixon.

SPEAKER_02: 2:11:32

Hold on. We have this amazing thing called the internet we can just look at here.

SPEAKER_00: 2:11:36

Let's look at what the Google machine says. The interwebs. Just a map of Mason Dixon. Do y'all do uh Halloween or do y'all do like all Halloween's Eve?

SPEAKER_02: 2:11:53

Yeah, I mean Oh, it does.

SPEAKER_00: 2:11:56

What it goes like above Missouri.

SPEAKER_02: 2:11:58

Yeah, it does. Okay, okay. So I've been okay.

SPEAKER_00: 2:12:01

Yeah, so it goes it follows Ohio River down and then goes up to Missouri and just like ends.

SPEAKER_02: 2:12:05

So I've I've been I've been south of it more than just twice then because I've been in Missouri a few times and Oklahoma. Yeah, we do Halloween. We Iggy, my four-year-old, picks up.

SPEAKER_00: 2:12:24

We don't have it, we don't have a neighborhood near us. Well, we do, but like you know, but it's not a good neighborhood. But uh we haven't done it in a while, mostly because I don't want my kids dressing up as like ghouls and princesses and stuff. The last time we did it was a few years ago when we actually lived in a neighborhood, but we do a lot more like all Hallows Eve style. And usually on All Saints Day, we'll do a somebody at our parish will host like an All Saints Day get together after math, yeah. And all the kids dress up as their saints. Like my my boy wants to be Saint Peter this year, just needs a keychain. That's what I told him. It's like we just need to get you like make two keys out of cardboard and color them and carry them around plus you have you have uh do you have a rooster?

SPEAKER_02: 2:13:08

I do have them just rooster on a on a leash? Oh, yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_00: 2:13:13

That's true. We have a uh rooster marinette. Maybe we can use that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don't have to worry about you know feeding actual rooster following around. Speaking of which, we had a set about St. Peter, like my the Tylenols kicking in. We had a priest come in for fraternists and he's an exorcist, and he brought a bunch of relics, okay, and he had a set he had two second-class relics of Saint Joseph. Really? One was the cincture and one was his cloak. Wow. So touch my ring to it immediately, and then he also had a relic of the true cross and a relic of the first five popes.

SPEAKER_02: 2:13:59

What what was that relic a piece of that the first five popes all owned?

SPEAKER_00: 2:14:06

They're all first class, so they're like bones and stuff.

SPEAKER_02: 2:14:10

Oh, he had first class relics from the first second class of St.

SPEAKER_00: 2:14:14

Joseph, everything else he had first.

SPEAKER_02: 2:14:15

Okay, okay. Uh, I thought you were saying he had one relic that was a second class relic of all the first five popes.

SPEAKER_00: 2:14:22

Okay, he told us a really interesting story. He was as well. So about Bernadette um of Lord's, right? Apparently they were going to get more relics from her, and they were taking out her femur and kneecap to do that. Yeah, and she's incorrupt, right? So, but as they were about to start, her incorrupt body raised its hand as if to tell them to stop. And so they didn't take anymore. Like they basically her saying, like, you've taken it enough. You don't need it anymore. That's crazy. I want to look it up, see if that's you know, see if they're like eyewitnesses to it or something. That'd be that'd be a cool, cool story to find out. All right, I really have to get off here.

SPEAKER_02: 2:15:04

I'm gonna go put these things up. You're it's funny for being a southerner, you sure do love Midwest goodbyes, man.

SPEAKER_00: 2:15:09

I I'm an extrovert, man. I like to talk, is what it comes down to. All right, we'll let y'all go. Y'all get in on the telegram, go join it. The link uh Rob shared earlier, as well. Share and subscribe, and so we can get our reach out a little bit better. Um, because this is really a lot of the first interaction a lot of Catholics have to gun culture, gun tube. Right.

SPEAKER_02: 2:15:33

Um, our first number of you who understood that eggnog thing, very few.

SPEAKER_00: 2:15:38

Very few, very few. That is inside baseball. So share, share it with everybody, you know, share it with your friends, share it with you know your friends who like guns, send it to them. You know, and we I've got Chivalry Gill coming back on soon. He's trying to nail down a date for me. We're gonna talk about the heroes of the faith, Richard Lionhart, you know, St. Ferdinand III, and so forth. We're gonna talk about some of those. Uh Raymond Ibrahim has a new book coming out on November 2nd, I think it is. I'm trying to use Chivalry Gill to get me in with him to get trying to get him on. Although he's kind of blown up lately, so it's kind of hard. I think it might be hard to get him on.

SPEAKER_02: 2:16:15

We might be able to get him on on Avoiding Babylon just due to the number of subscribers, and then if I get his contact info from there, then we can get him on here too.

SPEAKER_00: 2:16:26

Or y'all could have him on there and just have me on with y'all. It's not bad. Because I've read all his books.

SPEAKER_02: 2:16:33

It's not a bad idea, actually. We could dual stream that one to both channels.

SPEAKER_00: 2:16:39

Yeah. Yeah, we could. But we, you know, we if y'all have things that y'all want to know about, like a while ago, Rob was asking me about chess rigs, and I kind of answered him, and then we kind of blew past it for a while.

SPEAKER_02: 2:16:53

Uh I ordered one from Rebels Raiders just because good.

SPEAKER_00: 2:16:57

And we'll go over some things like how you how you would you know set it up.

SPEAKER_02: 2:17:01

That would be great because I uh so much of the stuff I I or you know, I like I do the research to figure out what's good, what's not, yeah, what's useful, what's not. I ordered, and I'm like, I don't know what to do with all this stuff.

SPEAKER_00: 2:17:13

Yeah, yeah. So we'll we'll maybe we'll do a show on that soon as well. I also want to have Chris back on to go over like an at-home medicine cabinet, like what we should have. That's a good idea too. Right, some things that you should have a stock of. Because I I bought there's a store that I like to buy some stuff from Wiseman Company, and they have you know, you pay a little bit, you're paying for it, but you're paying for the convenience of it. And it's basically a medical pack of medicines, like you know, for Tylenol, albuprofen, dysentery, things like that.

SPEAKER_02: 2:17:43

Well, and I've seen a few options online where you have a virtual meeting with a doctor who actually fills out prescriptions for uh you know, a pack of antibiotics, antivirals, you know, all this all this stuff that right now you need a prescription for. And if if you know the crap were to hit the fan, you'd have to raid a pharmacy to get basic antibiotics and stuff like that. So I'd be interested to hear if that stuff's worth it, if it's not, stuff like that.

SPEAKER_00: 2:18:16

Well, and again, because the like Jace Medical does that, and there's but if you can find somebody like a physician near you that you know, like maybe at your parish, and he doesn't mind you know doing prescriptions for antibiotics and stuff for you, because that's you know, he can just do a consult with you. Oh, yeah, here you are, and give you a prescription. But you know, don't ask him for opiates, you know, things like that. Like we have a bunch of we have a bunch of ivermectin, a lot, just in case. And in fact, I took some a couple of weeks ago. Now, did you get that from a pharmacy or did you get that from traffic?

SPEAKER_02: 2:18:43

Got it from a pharmacy.

SPEAKER_00: 2:18:44

Got it from pharmacy, we got it in bulk from a pharmacy, but uh and man, like I must have had something because like I was getting rid of something. We'll just say that. Just trying to keep this, you know, yeah, cordial and yeah, and polite, but you know, the I was getting rid of some sin, we'll say. Um no, there's a dog called exercising the demons. But man, apparently I need I wasn't feeling bad or nothing, but it got rid of something, so I might do that like twice a year. Just just you know, a little iramectin purge, you know, just to make sure I'm not holding on to something I shouldn't be.

SPEAKER_02: 2:19:25

Paul, we so if we stream to both channels, one if we do or say something here that YouTube doesn't like, that gets both of them killed. Two, it splits the live audience then between two, and three, even though these shows do better on the main channel than they do here, compared to our normal shows on the main channel, they do worse, and then the algorithm affects the whole channel based on that performance. So could you put clips over there?

SPEAKER_00: 2:19:58

Could yeah, to then just and then just kind of direct people, like maybe have final graphics saying, Hey, subscribe to DNR.

SPEAKER_02: 2:20:07

Yeah, yeah, that's not a bad idea.

SPEAKER_00: 2:20:09

And what we what we like to do like the Ken Tit Timcast thing, you know, like hey, this is a clip from Guns and Rosaries on Monday nights. Um and then we can like subscribe to Guns and Rosaries.

SPEAKER_02: 2:20:22

We've been kind of kicking around the idea of doing just a clips channel because for longer form content, the algorithm only likes to see it once or twice a week, right? So then putting up shorter clips kind of hurts the reach of the long form content, but the shorter clips do get a wider reach just because the algorithm pushes things that are like five to ten minutes long more than it pushes the two-hour live stream. So separating the clips out could let the clip channel grow better because it's not being held back by the lower view ship of a two-hour live stream, but it could also help the live stream reach more, and then if we do a clip channel, we could have clips from both channels on it, yeah. So there's a lot to think about, yeah. Yeah, we'll figure it out. And we if the channel gets big enough, then it to the point where it makes sense to do a local show. You will, I'm sure we would definitely do that. But when you have 300 subs, it doesn't make a lot of sense.

SPEAKER_00: 2:21:30

Yeah, no, y'all need to get us to like a thousand, yeah. And then because once you hit a thousand, it you got you start to get a lot more reach because you hit like a plateau.

SPEAKER_02: 2:21:39

Well, once YouTube is making money off of you from ads, yeah, then they'll start pushing the show more.

SPEAKER_00: 2:21:49

Oh, I was yeah, they would barely remember their sponsors, they're not gonna remember this show.

SPEAKER_02: 2:22:00

It's so true, too. It's so true.

SPEAKER_00: 2:22:05

I you know what I've like I because I've got like because I I subscribed to uh Kosnewski's Substack, and so he gave me a credit to Pelican. I kind of like it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:22:17

You you were skeptical at first. You th you said that if he tried to move you over to Pelican, you would just give it up.

SPEAKER_00: 2:22:26

Yeah, but it's like it's it's that it's aesthetically nice, and then you know, I like Kennedy Hall anyway, and you know, he's got like that smooth jazz voice, so his readovers are good, but there's some people on there I could do without, right? You know, like but other than that, like there's it's it's actually a really nicely put together app. I was I'm honestly surprised by it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:22:53

Yeah, so so I'm I did I just did subscribe to it as well, and I like how Kwashneski has his chanted rosaries on there. Yeah, we listened to one on the way home from church yesterday since we have a two-hour drive. It's like a 45 45 minutes of him chanting 45 minutes of him chanting the rosary, but that's pretty cool. I I think if they really get the prayer thing and the ebook thing down, then then it will be more than worth it. Yeah. But but A B's not gonna be a part of it, guys.

SPEAKER_00: 2:23:26

Yeah, I wouldn't. That's a completely different audience, honestly. And I think if y'all were part of it, y'all would be encouraged to kind of change how y'all approach things, and which just isn't like it isn't y'all, right? It isn't why people watch y'all. So I'm glad y'all aren't part of it. But it is, I mean, I think it's worthwhile to at least check out for most people. If they if they it I've always wanted, if anybody can ever do it, is if someone could go through the little office of the Blessed Virgin Mary and do all of the hours throughout the week, because like I don't know, like one, I'm not musically inclined whatsoever. So when it comes to these hymns, and I don't know quite or I don't know how to like the proper chanting rhythm, like if someone could do that for me and I could learn through that, I I would like there's no one does it on YouTube, or if they do, it's like very poorly recorded. So if someone just do a professional version of that, I would pay money for that.

SPEAKER_02: 2:24:32

I would love if uh like anytime you see chant on any of these prayer app things, like it's just audio, yeah. Right? I don't know how chant works. Yeah, I I know how to read mute like normal music notation just from like being in band and stuff in high school. I don't know how chant works, so if they could put it on screen so I can see it as I hear it, I that would be really helpful to me like a bouncing ball type thing, yes, yeah. Make it like karaoke, Gregorian karaoke. That's what I need. Gregori.

SPEAKER_00: 2:25:18

I think they have a lower tier, I think they have a lower tier.

SPEAKER_02: 2:25:22

For just the streaming stuff, yes, yep. But if you want the prayer and the reading and stuff, then it's 15. Yeah, what what do you mean a woman's gun and rosaries equivalent? Like women talking about guns?

SPEAKER_00: 2:25:39

We've already discussed women should not be on the internet, yes. The only thing she's allowed to watch is me. I get it. My wife is only allowed to watch priests, so I get it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:25:57

Um, so Hope knows how to use a gun and she carries a gun. She is not an enthusiast like I am.

SPEAKER_00: 2:26:06

Yeah. Yeah, neither is my wife. My wife, my wife's a good shot, which ensures that I will never step out on her, but as well as I taught her how to shoot, and so she but her thing is it's like the mental block of having to get over to actually event of actually having to shoot is gonna be hard for her, right? Because she doesn't even like like it takes her a while to get used to me killing the chickens when I'm about to start putting them in the freezer, right? And so I think that's the biggest hurdle for a lot of women, and that's probably why a lot of you know women are assaulted even when they have handguns, is because they can't get past that block.

SPEAKER_02: 2:26:42

My wife is is pretty good on that. She uh she goes on hunting with me. She, you know, she'll shoot a grouse, a squirrel, rabbit. Easy, and you know, she has no problem with that, yeah. But uh, she's just not autistically into guns like me. She's autistically into her children, and she should be. Yeah. Autistically into her children, not into her her autistic children. Although I'm Maddie's Maddie might be Maddie probably is. Autism is a superpower.

SPEAKER_00: 2:27:16

It has its weaknesses. I just as every good superhero does, Superman has kryptonite, Batman has poor people, right?

SPEAKER_02: 2:27:25

Autist has talking to people.

SPEAKER_00: 2:27:28

Yeah, and that's okay. That's why and that's why you have a whole lot of autistic people who love the Lat Mass. Because you can go to it by yourself and no one will talk to you, and you can go home.

SPEAKER_02: 2:27:39

True.

SPEAKER_00: 2:27:41

All right. This is 100% true, right? You have to be steeped in it like tea. Okay, you can become southern, but you have to give up your northern race.

SPEAKER_02: 2:27:55

So here's the thing the one thing I hate most about the north is the fact that for some reason people think it's okay to drink unsweetened tea. That's just brown water. The hell is wrong with you people? Unsweetened tea is terrible. That's true. And I'm not talking about like hot tea, I'm talking people drink unsweetened iced tea. It's an abomination. It literally makes you drink it and you're like your body just instantly 100% true.

SPEAKER_00: 2:28:27

You come down to Alabama, you have to get a gallon of Milo's tea.

SPEAKER_02: 2:28:31

Oh, see, the so we have Dollar Generals up here, and they do sell Milo's sweet tea.

SPEAKER_00: 2:28:36

Do they really? Oh, yeah. Milo's tea, staple down here. You got it.

SPEAKER_02: 2:28:39

I did not see it until we were driving to Jacksonville. And I think I first saw it in Tennessee, and then we got a Dollar General in town here, and I go in and I'm like, Oh, there it is.

SPEAKER_00: 2:28:53

But it's it'll give you diabetes.

SPEAKER_02: 2:28:55

But I mean, you talk you drink the extra sweet tea, right?

SPEAKER_00: 2:28:59

I mean, I just I just drink my little sweet tea. If you ever get their lemonade and mix it with their sweet tea, make an orange palmy.

SPEAKER_02: 2:29:06

Well, they they sell gallons of just the mixed and pre-mix.

SPEAKER_00: 2:29:09

Yeah, I like mine a little bit more tea than lemonade. So I do like three-fourths and a quarter. That's true.

SPEAKER_02: 2:29:15

You want just enough lemonade to give it a little tang.

SPEAKER_00: 2:29:18

A little tang. Yeah, just a little. Did you know? Did you know the reason pineapple juice tastes like sharp is because the pulp in pineapple juice has little barbs on it? It's literally poking you. It's literally poking. Why is every part of a pineapple? Yeah. That's wild. Diabetes. Diabetes. Give you the diabetes. All right, I really have to go. Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 2:29:47

You thought you said goodbye was 20 minutes ago.

SPEAKER_00: 2:29:49
