I've seen you speak, I've seen you speak publicly. But never in a setting like this.

Meaning like obviously we do the podcast together. Yeah. We do episodes together. We, you know, shoot the shit. Everything I've seen you. But I've never seen you because of the pandemic in the last year, you haven't had the opportunity to speak in front of crowds.

I gotta tell you, man, super impressive. The way that you interact, like, what's awesome is like anyone can kind of deliver a speech. All right, you have your PowerPoint, next page, let's go. You know, a lot of people are good at that. Obviously, you're good at that. But it's the Q&A, the dialogue, the reading, the room, the, yeah, all right, cool. What's your issue? And then processing the issue, breaking it down.

When you, there's no notes, there's nothing to check your references. You just, you talked like something, I mean, I can give you a bunch of different references, but the one Asian lady, the realtor, the one in the back, that's crushing. It makes $111,000. If you want to get to a million,

and you broke her down, yeah. And you essentially diagnosed her that you're like look you're a great salesperson Maybe you're not a great sales leader Lentations and she actually admitted it in the end. Yeah, but stuff like that is what I'm saying is that That's beyond the PowerPoint presentation. So yeah, and and so impressive What would I got away from the SLS Congress number one? How you market it? It was complete by word of others No advertising and there's no

Marketing behind is just simply relationship and the reason why Patrick and share that I'm you know as his By the last time I was at the breakers you appointed me as a CDOP and my Taylor my Taylor sent me this Let's get a zoom in on that. We got to some policy Crazy and and that's a policy. That's cool. Crazy. And that's a picture of breakers. That's right. That's what you were talking about. That's right. It's a way to be compelled.

Look right here. I got a picture of a soy milk right here. A little soy action. But it was to the point where we're so blessed and grateful for those of us at PHP to have you as our CEO because to see you rock a room of 100 entrepreneurs, they're clapping every, you know, 30 seconds about what you're saying and the case studies that you're breaking down and speaking from the heart and from more importantly

experience and improve of running a successful business, you know, the effect, the, the, the guesstimate enterprise value that you helped affect in the business community based on the, the attendance over there, we guesstimate around, based on leaks and opportunities, we guesstimated around, based on leaks and opportunities, we guesstimated around 50 million dollars of enterprise value is created because of SLS.

Yeah, so there was a guy that said, different numbers were throwing around, but it was pretty interesting when you, you're doing a interview with them what they're saying to you. Awesome, okay, let's get into it. We got lots of topics to discuss, a lot of topics to discuss, S, S, and S, Simon

and Schuster flat out came out and said, look, 216 employees apparently came out and said, we cannot publish Mike Pence's book. We, we shouldn't be, you know, publishing any of that stuff. And the CEO stood up and he says, no, we're going to be publishing because we want to hear both sides. We're going to talk about that. Hopefully here in a minute. That cancel culture. Yes, the cancel culture. I talked about that in a little reference. We'll talk about that here in a minute when we go to it. Elon Musk trolls Jeff Bezos for losing NASA contract to SpaceX.

Then you have Apple increases its spending in the United States by 20% alphabet sets profit record plans 50 billion dollar buyback, which you know a sets profit record plans $50 billion buyback, which a lot of times when you talk about buyback, they get heat, they get heat, companies get heat, but they want to do a $50 billion buyback. How Samsung's dynasty, the heirs, will pay an $11 billion inheritance tax that's going to be a record of all time. And $11 billion inheritance tax.

It's going to be interesting how that turns out. Podcast subscription, subscription, frenzy, people are now charging to listen to their podcasts. We have to talk about what Biden did yesterday with his speech.

There was a lot to be talked about with his $6.35 trillion when you add all of it up, we'll cover that. Governor Newsom to face recall election as Republican-led efforts hit signature goal. Kai, did you get the email I sent you just a minute ago? Or no, did you get it or no? I want you to go. If you, wow, shit, at that email, probably we left on my computer.

I sent a bunch of links to you to pull it up that we'll cover. I'm gonna have Mari go get it because we have to look at some of the data that was sent over. And then let's see what else we got here. Well, let's see what else we got here. Biden won't suspend an extra 80 billion dollars on Iris and has enforcement. Which one do we want to go with? Which one do we want to go with? How about we talk about Joe Rogan, what he said on his podcast about vaccine? Go to page 10. Let's start off with Joe Rogan, what was set on his podcast, and what some folks from

Biden administration responded to Joe Rogan. So Biden officials call out Joe Rogan over vaccine comments. Did Joe Rogan become a medical doctor while we weren't looking? This is a business insider story. Joe Rogan took heat from a pair of White House officials on Wednesday over his opinions that younger Americans shouldn't get the COVID-19 vaccine. Rogan said he was not against vaccines in general, but he didn't mention that the director of the CDC said hospitalization among young people were up. And in Michigan hospitals, COVID-19 units are packed with younger people.

The New York Times reported Dr. Anthony Fauci, President of Biden's chief medical officer advisor and the director of national institute of allergy and infectious diseases criticized Rogan's remarks Kate Bettingfield, Biden's communication director also criticized Rogan's saying, I guess my first question would be did Joe Rogan become a medical doctor while we weren't looking? Adam, what do you have to say about this? So look, if you ever watched Rogan, which I'm a fan of, I think we're all a fan of Rogan respect his work, and Pat, I think you can appreciate this. This is the beauty of being a comedian. Is that anytime Rogan's under sort of hot water, who's just like, look, I'm just a dumb

comedian, man. What do I know? Look, man, I'm just shooting the shit. I'm shooting the, what I'm just a dumb comedian. What do I know? That's an amazing defense mechanism like I used to do comedy. So anytime I'm in hot water, I'm like, look man I'm joking. Okay, like I don't take things too seriously. I'm a comedian. So do I do I actually agree with Joe Rogan on this? I actually do. I think young healthy people don't necessarily need to get vaccinated. That's my opinion. Obviously Fauci would probably disagree. And I'm sure if Joe Rogan gets some backlash over this,

I'm sure his defense mechanism will be like, look man, I'm just a don't commit in what do I know. I'm just a caveman with a microphone kind of a thing. You've heard him say this before, right? You've heard him say this before? He's like, what do I know? Anytime that, you know, especially with politics, because he's, I'd guess that Joe Rogan is sort of middle, center, left-ish.

There's stuff down the right. Like, he can kind of, he's a libertarian, I would say. I think that's something that I'm learning to be more akin to. Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan. Not necessarily Joe Biden on this one, but I think at the end of the day, that's his opinion. He's sticking to it. And he end of the day, that's his opinion. He's sticking to it.

And he's just a dumb, what's wrong with him saying that? What is wrong with him saying, I don't think she'd take it. Is that unacceptable? Is that against the law today to say, your opinion is, I don't think younger generations should take back. Well, I think last comment I want to turn over to our Sergeant and Arms over here in the House of Poland is if you're the Biden administration and you're working this hard and his approval ratings

on how he's handling the COVID rollout is actually well north of 60%. Well, anything over 50% in this country these days are doing a good job and his approval ratings are hovering in the low 50s, I think the last thing the Biden administration wants is a big name voice saying, well, you don't necessarily need the vaccine.

Come on, come on, come on. So if you're the Biden administration, you're not doing them any favors. So I don't think they're gonna cancel Joe Rogan. I even Spotify said, look, we're keeping the episode up. I think they were very clear about that. But at the end of the day, he's not doing the vaccine rollout any favors.

So I think that's something that they're probably not happy about, but there's no canceling. What is it with vaccine that they can't have opposition? That's the biggest concern of mine. What is it with the vaccine community that has a hard time having opposition? Do you know every single debate has an opposition? You tell me what debate doesn't have an opposition.

Just want you to conform. Let's go to all the debates. Give me all the debates. Pro-life. Debate. What's the debate? What's the opposite? Pro-choice.

Pro-choice. Oh, it's a life, life starts, conception starts at this level. Okay. Do we have a problem with that debate? No. Do we have a problem with second amendment debate? No. Do we have a problem with debating, you know, the budget for military should only be a trillion

and a half dollars, it should be a lot, it should be more. Do we have a debate? How come there cannot be a debate about vaccine? How come the vaccine debate is so sensitive that if you say something, God forbid somebody gives an opposing idea, all of a sudden everybody flips. You know, for me, I never even paid attention to this vaccine debate until all of a sudden I noticed your silencing and opposing argument. That's what got me more interested. I never cared about this debate because to me, God knows how many

vaccines I got in my body being in a military. You know, we got like our body. If you want any kind of vaccine, we got them here. I got a supply vaccine in my body. You hosted a debate with, yes, but Drusha Ritsen Kennedy, yes. But the point is, why, what are you worried about? What is your concern? You, because you, you say vaccines are not 100% accurate. There's not like 100% there's not gonna be any issues. You saw what happened with Johnson and Johnson.

You saw like, even my nanny took the Pfizer vaccine. She was down for a week. And I'm in there. She's been with me for 10 years. She's never been down. She was down for a whole week. Second time she took it. Not the first one, the second one.

My dad took it. He was fine. Nothing happened with my dad. He's 79. Knock on wood. He took it as well. But I'm not sitting here debating whether it is good or it is not good.

I haven't taken it. My kids haven't taken it. My wife's not taking it. We don't have any plans anytime soon to take it. It's not in our strategy right now to want to take it. But the question is more than what Rogan said. The question is, what are you worried about if somebody disagrees with you?

Now, we have to get 100% of people vaccinated. You're not going to. You're not have to get 100% of people vaccinated. You're not going to. You're not gonna get 100% of people vaccinated. And if you do, let's just say gets to point where you get 100% of people vaccinated, guess what that means. What is it? Is that gonna be through influence or force?

Most likely force. Influence. There's no way it's influence. If you get 100%, if 100% of Americans have to get vaccinated, you think that's influence, meaning everybody chose to argue with you. I have anything with 100% of it.

So that means you have to agree with me that the right choice is pro choice. You have to agree with me that we have to take everyone's guns away. 100% of people have to agree with me. The only argument that people demand for you to be 100% vaccine. I just don't wanna do it. If a person doesn't wanna do it, vaccine. Like, just don't want to do it.

If a person doesn't want to do it, and a person says, younger people shouldn't do it, do these people are panicking. Oh my gosh, what have they done? Body, relax. All the people yesterday in the house when Biden was given a speech,

they're apparently taking the vaccines. How come the place was empty? If you're so confident about your vaccine working, so why was the place empty yesterday? I want to introduce you to how empty. They don't want wanted to say, I wanted to say, I wanted to say, they don't want to have a, I think it's optics, it always comes down to optics. You have a full packed room, then your hip secret.

Then you're hypocrite. Then why do I trust you? Then you're right. If you don't even trust the vaccine that you're telling me to get, because you guys are not, why you want me to trust you? You don't trust it. Okay, so let me actually ask you a question.

It sounds like it's more than an argument, like a debate. What's the reason that you're not getting the vaccine? Are you gotten the vaccine? I have not gotten the vaccine. Why is not getting the vaccine? My kids are not getting the vaccine. So what's the reason? So we have a more going vaccine.

Because we have a choice. And so that's what I want to understand. Is it just because you have the choice and you want to exercise that choice? Or is there something behind it? Well, a couple of things. Our personal pride, the way we processed it, you know, at that time, my son was nine and last August, I got COVID. My son got COVID.

We kicked it's tail in three days and she hasn't had any, any, she hasn't gotten it or are, are, are, are you got it and your son't had any, she hasn't gotten it. Are you got it and your son? My, yeah, I know your son. Which son? Jojo, the nine year old. He's not 10. So a nine year old got cope.

Yep, yeah, we both got cope. And school or from you or how that happened? Most likely from me. Okay, most likely from me. And our two year old, fine, my 25 year old son, fine, my now 20 year old son, fine, my now 20 year old daughter, there are twins, they've never gotten COVID.

You know, they had roommates that got COVID, but they're fine. So, you know, we're also studying boosting our immunity. There's other ways to combat COVID, which is boosting immunity, getting out in the sun, raising your vitamin D levels, taking all sorts of vitamin C, elderberry, you know, increasing that, which America, south of a certain parallel, I'm not sure exactly what parallel in America it is, but south of a certain parallel, we get plenty of vitamin D.

But the fact that we have to get a bifourse, what Patrick was saying, I don't agree with it. The second part, my take on this is, amazing how powerful now the podcast has been in American landscape. Now a podcast is on the radar of the president. Yo, Rogan, not bad. You are now on the ear of the president, making sure that he checks your opinions on things

to make sure you're not damaging the country when it comes to your opinion on the vaccine. But for the most part, we love choices, that's America, that's freedom. I love coming to Florida. I'm from Chicago, I love coming to Illinois, or to Florida from Illinois, because here I'm in the gym without a mask.

I'm here walking around without a mask, I'm here. And they just announced, guys, breaking news, you can now go outside without a mask. CDC. I'm gonna finally do it. I'm gonna finally do it if you're vaccinated Yeah, okay, if you're vaccinated, I guess I gotta keep my mask on a go inside Well Pat, do you have any strong feeling? Well, I know you do like why are you? It's my initial question was this is more than just a debate for you

You have some principles as to why you don't want your family to get vaccinated It's so simple, but you get your dad got back. My wife believes in the flu shot. I don't take the flu shot. I'm okay with not taking a flu shot. It was less than a flu shot. I don't even, I couldn't even take it. Probably the military, huh?

I don't even know. Maybe I took one five years ago because we went out to a flu shot. I couldn't even tell you. I may have gone a three years, I mean. I just haven't gone to flu shot. But Jen, Jen got it last year. She got it last year.

It's not like, you can't tell us, no, it's just, hey, it's reaches on. The choice. Yeah, we talked about what the kids, hey, we got another one on the way, what are we gonna be doing with this? We're probably gonna make some adjustments on the vaccines. Doesn't mean they're not gonna get the vaccine.

The baby's not gonna get the vaccine. No, the baby's gonna get the vaccine, but some of them we may change the timeline from 18 months to 36 months. We may change the timeline from 18 months to five years. We may change the timeline from 18 months to five years. And that's the risk we're taking as parents. That's the risk that you get to take as parents. Everybody raises their kids in a certain way,

no matter how you raise your kids, there is a risk. If you're too disciplined, there's a risk. If you're too loose and lenient, there's a risk. If you inject faith in your kids, there's a risk. If you don't inject faith in your kids, there's a risk. If you let your kids eat whatever they want, there's a risk. If you don't let your kids your kids, there's a risk. If you let your kids eat whatever they want, there's a risk.

If you don't let your kids eat whatever they want, there's a risk no matter what you do as a parent. I'm not sending you looking for perfection. So sometimes when government officials get up there and they talk as if they, even a Fauci, how many of Fauci statements have been accurate? Let's go measure all his statements. Like how many doctors, like if somebody comes to you right now and says,

you know, one of our associates, she called me good friend of ours. They called, she had cancer, okay. And a husband calls me good friend. We have a conversation. He's emotional. This is a military guy. He's a tough guy. He's a stronger. You know who he is. He's a tough guy. And he says, I don't know how to handle it. We'll just have a conversation together. So two grown men, emotional conversation. I'm trying to give as much support as I can. So I love this guy. But I said, how many doctors has she spoken to?

One, let's go get a second and a third. Are we going back to, it's a bad idea to get a second and third and fourth opinion? Apparently the last 12 months, the only opinion that matters is Fauci's. Why can't we get a second opinion and a third opinion and a fourth opinion and a fifth opinion? I subscribe, get a second, third, fourth, fifth opinion.

When you go to a Morgan Stanley advisor or a Merrill Lynch advisor or Goldman advisor, what are they typically say? If you say, I already have my money managed under XYZ. Great. Most of our clients do as well. But what we've noticed is with folks who have been around longer and they have a bigger estate, they typically get a second or third advisor

to have a second or third opinion, just like a doctor gives you a second or third opinion. We're just supposed to sit there and say, oh, first opinion, if I'll say he's right. Fauci, Marx says, mask don't work. Now you wanna tell us mask, or now you wanna tell us put two on it. Make up your mind, you've been wrong as well.

So don't act like the people at the top have been right. This whole judgment about they think they're perfect and they forget when they were wrong but somebody else gives an opinion, oh, they have to be 100% right? No, it's hypocrisy at the highest level. This is not even a vaccine topic. This is more of a topic of,

you have to listen to me because I know what I'm talking about and you don't. No, you don't fully know everything you're talking about. Hell, I don't know what I'm talking about all the time. I'm wrong also I have certain things that I say in a podcast or an interview or video some of my videos I watch from seven years ago. I disagree with today. You're on I'm telling you I watch my video from seven years That said I disagree with you today. You were immature you've changed your moment. You have to look at it this way And I sit there and adjust what what era are we living at?

What age are you going to know everything? Right. Eight years old, seven years old, nine years old, when? Socrates died. He says, the only thing I know is what? That I know nothing. Nothing. What do we act like everybody knows?

And we're afraid of debate. The only thing I trust is a good debate. It's the only thing I trust. There's a very famous proverb written by King Solomon. You know, it's your uncle. He said, without counsel, purposes are disappointed, but with the multitude of counselors, plans are established. So back to the second opinion,

the third opinion for the opinion, if you only have one opinion, you're setting yourself off a failure to have ability to look into the matter and get multiple todo counselors and opinions, very valuable, especially for such a big decision like this or anything else. Speaking of opinions that we wanna get

our audience feedback whether they're getting the vaccine, whether they're not, where we at with them. Okay, yeah, there are people out there. Gank, if you're getting the vaccine and you'll kick in the vaccine, put a thumbs up, smash that thumbs up button. Don't worry, we don't know the algorithms where Fauci's following our podcast to find out

if you got it or not to start sending you messages. If you have gone the vaccine and you're comfortable getting it, press thumbs up. If you haven't gone the vaccine and you're not comfortable getting it, press thumbs down. Right now we're at 173 over two. Let's see what happens to those ratios. Can I ask you a question?

Yes. So I'm gonna tell you a story and then I wanna get your opinion on this. So I haven't got the vaccine. I've got, we have all got COVID even young young handsome young buck over there I really have you got it as well everybody here's gone to COVID is the COVID climate. You got it as well right? Everybody's gone to come in the office with master of the gloves But I don't know anything about that anyway

I'm funny the uh so there is sort of a So funny. So there is sort of a freedom to once you've had COVID, you can be like, all right, like I had it, kick my ass for a few days out of the office for a week or so, but I'm back. But here's my question to you. When I moved, because I was living in Dallas for six months now I'm back home in Florida,

and I didn't see my mom for a long time. And you have no idea how good it felt to know that my mom, my grandma, my stepdad, my aunts, got the vaccine. I mean, they're all in their 70s and they're older. That felt good for me. Like, you know, we're all in our early 40s-ish shout out to early 40s. Right. 40s. Right. 40s-grid.

So, maybe, you know, young, back to Rogan's point, maybe young healthy people don't necessarily need to do it, especially if you've had COVID. But it does feel good knowing that you're loved ones, especially your older loved ones are vaccinated. That does feel good. And your dad got vaccinated. That must feel good. You know what, what feels good for me

What feels good for me is that after hearing all the debates you as the individual Made the choice to get the vaccine hence my dad or my nanny. You made a choice. That's what feels good to me That's what I support. I don't support doing it or not doing it. I support research. You're comfortable go get it salute So if your dad was anti-vax. I'm not getting it. I support research. You're comfortable. Go get it. Salute. So if your dad was anti-vaxx, I'm not getting it. I would have thought him on it. I would have thought him on it. No, no, I would have given him information and said,

that look at this data, look at this data, look at this data. But to enforce or force or, you know, put in, and enforce like through guilt, you know, why don't you do it? You don't care about this. Not gonna do that. It's your choice.

You go do it. What about your family, man? My parents got it, our want to do it? You don't care about this? Not gonna do that. It's your choice, you go do it. What about your family? My parents got it, or nanny got it. They're the ones the most fearful about COVID-19. Every time I travel, they're always worried about me making sure I'm quarantined. But I can't say that I don't have a doubt in the back of my head about what's in it.

I worry. My dad was down for a week, and I was concerned. He was 81 years old, He's about to turn 82. So I'm worried about it. He just got admitted last week to the hospital for a heart failure. He got out. They want to do an open heart on him.

And versus taking medication to listen, 81, 82, not going to open heart surgery on it. He won your own man. So that's the thing. That's something. Is he taking blood on us or not? He is. That's the tough part if you do it at that time.

Correct. Yeah, so again, look, I don't know what it is to be's the tough part if you do it at that time. Correct. Yeah. So again, look, I don't know what it is to be 79. I only know what it is to be 42. And everything else is to get as much intel from folks who are younger. When I sit with a 14-year-old, I say, tell me what it's like to be in high school today

with social media. Tell me. What are the biggest challenges? What are you going through? How many fights are there gangs? Are there drugs? Do you see guns? Do you see alcohol?

Are your teachers allowing you to put your phones next to you in classroom? How many classmates have phones? Are you texting while you're in classroom? Are you using calculator allowed you to put your phones next to you in classroom? How many of your classmates have phones? Are you texting while you're in classroom? Are you using calculator when you're doing math? Why am I doing that? I don't know what it is to be 14 in high school. So I do what?

I ask questions. I don't know what it is to be 79. What do you think about when you're 79? You're probably thinking about death more than a 42 year old is because more people around you are dying. I don't know what it is to be that. So I want to understand your position. Then I want to try to provide as much intel.

I'll give you my opinion if you want it. And then from there, you got to make the decisions and I salute you. Can I still be doubtful like he is? Yes, of course, it's my family, it's my dad, it's my mom, it's my people I love. Why wouldn't I be concerned about them? But at the same time, to sit there and act like you are 100% correct

and you're telling me this thing, 100% works and you're not putting a little bit of doubt to say, we don't know exactly what the 10-year ramifications of this is. How you gonna tell me you know? Okay, you know, the one side says Republicans, well, you know, the vaccine, Trump got it done in nine months. He did. He did. He did. But what was vouchers arguing against that?

If there's one thing you don't do is you don't force to speed up the process of getting what? Vaccines earlier. Okay, now we do. Now they're trying to use it as a victory. And Biden's in the first 90 days. I've got 100 million people and 200 million vaccine shots I've been given. Really, I wonder if in three years there's side effects who you blame now.

Well, Trump shouldn't have expedited the process. So everybody's trying to take the victory for what happened. The reality is I'm more comfortable if you say, look, we have three choices today. One choice is don't get the vaccine, okay? And God forbid if you don't, if you get COVID and you're young, maybe you'd be okay. But if you spend time around somebody that's elder than they get it from you, God forbid if that nine-year-old was his dad, then what happens at 81 years old? He doesn't know, right? There's a risk.

So the argument is, if you don't get COVID and you're young and you're healthy, the people you may hurt are the people that are elder to around you. So we suggest you consider getting the COVID vaccine. Great. Thank you. Allow me to make the choice. Number two is what? You're not even thinking about it. You you consider getting the COVID vaccine. Great. Thank you. Allow me to make the choice. Number two is what? You're not even thinking about it. You just go get the COVID shot. But the third one is, look, we also have to know that there is a risk. We don't know what's going to happen five, 10 years from now. So to the community that's worried about not taking a vaccine shot, we're with you as well. We also don't know, but sometimes we have to take a risk in today based

on the research that's been done by medical experts, doctors, hundreds of research, FD, everybody that's done their part, they feel very confident that this is gonna be okay long-term based on the testing they've done, but we can still be what, wrong. There's still a 5% risk. Having said that, is it better off in Morvus

if Morvus take vaccine shot today? Yes, the odds are better in our favor as a nation if we take the vaccine than if we don't take the vaccine. You know what that allows me to do? I'm saying they're saying, great, you know, let me go take the vaccine, I'll make the choice. But this, we know it all and you don't mindset, it retakes the hell out of free thinkers. This whole idea about if you don't, you're at this, stop it, knock it off. I've been thinking for myself for 42 years. Some of them has been bad.

Some of it has been good, but I've done pretty okay for myself. And if I make the wrong choice, I live with it. That's on me, but don't act like you know everything and I don't. Lots of these positions changing is frustrating to those who like to think for themselves. Question for you.

I think, and you touched on this, that everything gets so politicized, especially if how she said this, and Trump said, you don't need the mask, and then Trump was the one that actually got the operation warp speed, got the vaccine done, but then a lot of Republicans won't do it, and then Biden came in and he's taking credit

for the vaccine and he's rolling. And so everything gets so politicized. And don't you think there's... By the way, the voting is 58 said, they're comfortable getting the vaccine. 62 said, they're not getting the vaccine. So it's happening. So it's happening.

Great. I respect that. Phenomenal, totally fine. Go ahead. So everything gets so politicized. Wouldn't it be prudent for something like this? Okay, did Trump take the vaccine? Yes.

Okay, did Biden take the vaccine? Yes. Do you think they see eye to eye on the vaccine? Yes. So why wouldn't they do some sort of a joint statement? So for example, I think Biden, Obama, Bush, I'm not sure about Jimmy Carter, but the living president's all came out and said, look, we took the vaccine. Here's what's up.

I respect that. This is something where I think our country, something like this, would have loved to hear more from even Trump in that group saying, look, it's the five president living president. I'd say, we all took the vaccine. We're on the same page. Three Democrats, two Republicans. Why wouldn't you give credit to expedite the process if you want me to get involved why don't you give me

credit in your speech that you give yesterday saying on behalf of uh... you know my administration we'd like to thank trumps administration phyzer johnson and johnson the doctors on anthony fouchy who expedited a process to get this for us when reagan became president and the day he became president president were released by released by Iran he gave the credit to to Carter. That's a classy move. Now would Trump have done that? I don't know. Zero percent. What I'm saying to you is I think there's a reason why we are where we are today because a part of it was also we didn't give any credit before.

So this whole idea given no credit has been kind of going on for a little bit while right? Even Obama Obama for the first four years he was there he bashed bush non-stop non-stop non-stop non-stop not everything i inherited an administration no one in the history and herited this bush administration policies inherited we have to hear this inherited word a million times that it was all bushes well right now their best friends why are they best friends because of obama because of bush a because of bush and i think michelle and uh... bush are what but what i'm saying to you is bush was a

guy that's like look this is your show it's not my show yeah the rest of them haven't done that to the next show obama definitely hasn't allowed trump to be trump when trump became president he was bashing them nonstop so look what trump is doing to bite is what ob did to him. So Trump is looking at Biden like, listen, you were part of the Obama camp. You trash me. Why are you? Why are you expecting me to build you up? You never built me up when I became president. So I know you're going to go to the Trump camp. You got to go camp prior to that as well. Because I think a lot of it and just shout out to the Bush legacy. They're just a classy

operation. Even when George H. W. Bush came in, he wrote a nice note to Bill Clinton, you know, George W. Bush wrote a nice note. It goes to Prescott. Credit goes to center Prescott. That's just a classy operation. And this goes back to my initial point is that everything so politicized, everything so polarized. President Bush comes to an operation.

He comes to our event. He speaks. I mean, I'm bush comes to operations. He comes and he comes to our event. He speaks. I mean, I do an interview together. We're sitting in the back. We're sitting in the back when there's 20 secret service agents around us. I mean, I have a 45 minute conversation. He's selling me all these great stories. Just a great experience with them, right?

Comes up, we have a blast. We're laughing. He's telling jokes. Everybody afterwards, the most common thing people said to him is, you were the anti-Christ to me because of my parents said about you, grandparents said about you I cannot believe how much I like you up to today and then two weeks ago I get a nice handwritten note from him thank you for the invitation for me to be on your event.

Crazy. Like that's the kind of stuff they're like somebody raised these. He didn't have to do that. No, he didn't have to write for office. He wrote you a personal letter. By the way, ask me how many speakers we've invited have sent me a letter. How many? None.

He's the only one that ever sent a letter. No wonder you're the president. Right. So these are the things that you kind of pay attention to and you give credit to some more power to them. Anyways, the vaccine debate, to each his own, you know, let's keep researching. I'm not sitting here telling you I won't take the vaccine.

All I'm telling you is, as of right now, I'm not. I made six months from now, 12 months from now, 24 months from now, when I from now, 24 months from now. When I feel comfortable enough to want to take it and go talk to my wife and my kids about it, great. Till then, it's on hold. That's our choice. Whatever your choice is you want to take it, I salute you more power to you.

Anyways, let's continue. We have the Jack Hussle who gave $50 and he said, it all comes down to trust and the experts have given the people zero reason to trust them. And this process, this way, this is getting pushed is very uncomfortable when something gets pushed, this hardy have to question why no vaccine for my family and I. Well, Jack, more power to you, that's your decision,

that's your prerogative, thank God, you're living in a country that you still have the choice to do that and you're not being forced to do that. How about we take a lighter story with what happened between Elon Musk and Jeff Paisel's age two, he can't get it up story. Here we go. Elon Musk trolls Jeff Paisel's, maybe bring up the tweet guy for losing NASA contract to SpaceX and he says can't get it up.

This is a mediate story. Some are rockets, right? Yeah. Earlier this one, NASA announced that it has chosen Elon Musk's SpaceX to bring its next astronauts to the moon, perhaps as early as 2024. The contract is valued at $2.9 billion. That didn't sit well with Blue Origin,

the aerospace company founded by Bezos, the Blue Origin, and a third bitter called Dynetics, Field Protests, not Dynetics, Dynetics, Filled Protests with the government. Accountability office claiming NASA changed the bidding rules late in the process. News of the filing seemed to delight Musk who took to Twitter on Monday to channel his Inter middle school or by same basals and blue origin can't get it L.O.L. Such school yard humor is old hat

for Musk who last June tweeted to inform his tens of millions of followers that it was 69 days after 420. That is Elon Musk for you. There's a tweet by the way. They took it down or no? Where's the tweet? I'll get there. Oh my gosh. Adam, thoughts. Well, you're like, I've been very vocal on, on what Elon Musk likes to do in his sexual life and you know banging aliens and all that kind of stuff It's kind of his fantasy land, but he's a child Pany me look everyone kind of how you can kind of go different directions He's a child at heart clearly. He's a dreamer. He's a visionary. I love that. Yeah, I love being child He's a paper. You can't get it up giggie-giggie. Yeah, like

billionaire a hundred100 billion talking shit to a fellow richest man in the world. So Paul, I can't get it up. Tweet that out. Got him $69.420. Like, what? This is the CEO of one of the biggest companies in the world. So I think what we are seeing here is this is watching MJ and LeBron go at it in their prime.

Bezos and Maz. He's a good point right there. Everyone's like, who's better LeBron? Who's MJ though? Who's MJ though? Well, I mean, Bezos is older and he's been doing it longer, so I guess in this situation. And he is richer, 90% of the time. He goes back and forth though. So you kind of got to go MJ. So you're saying that the musk is that? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What Elon Musk is MJ of the broad. I don't know. So what I'm saying is we're watching two Titans go at it in their front.

I think it's great. You know who's winning today? The world is winning today, man. We're winning, man. 69, I'm 420 speaking of 420, what are your thoughts on this, Apollo? Yeah, when I'm looking at this, I'm back to your analogy.

I think that currently right now, I think Musk is MJ under rise because he's battling he's battling Bayzos here's why because when MJ was coming up he was a great scorer and then he was great this aspect and then he improved another aspect of defense you know three-point shot all these different things he had to have solid mid-range game MJ but when you look when you're looking at a Musk and these guys going back at it they just you get to file something with the SEC

like a couple of months ago, talking about who's the new title is Master of the Universe? Yeah. So, yeah. Yeah. It's a coin or Master of Coins. This one, entrepreneurship is all about it.

It should be having fun. You should be playing loose. Things are so tight and tense and so much pressure on your shoulder, why not? Pat, so do you agree with my MJ LeBron? Yeah, look, I hear what I think, man. I think, you know, as much as Twitter has divided America, Twitter is also entertaining.

There's always, there's a show to watch on Twitter, because Twitter, take Twitter out. Take Twitter out. What do you, what do you go and say that? Take social media out. What do you go and say, can't get it out, right? Like, how long after that news came out? Do you think you'll almost quit it? Tweet it can't get it up.

One hour. 30 minutes later. 20 minutes later. That's the advantage. That's the positive side of social media where you get to say what's on your mind right now and then maybe the day later like I probably shouldn't have said that, but you get to see that part of immediate reaction for someone. To me, it's entertaining, and to me, it's competition going back and forth. Kai is trying to see something towards later. Two and a half hours later after announcement was made.

Okay. The tweet was posted at five, and he responded at seven. That's what I'm saying. I mean, that's the part that's kind of like, you know, if you didn't have it that way, you'd have to wait two days. Elon Musk makes a interview with, you know, such and such magazine, and he said that this person can't get it up, you know, if you didn't have it that way, you'd have to wait two days. Elon Musk makes an interview with, you know,

such-and-such magazine and he said that this person can't get it up, you know. It's like, now it's like immediate. Here's what he says, this guy can't get it up. And we can send a box of Viagra to, you know, Seattle's Viagra to Bezos. But it'd be funny, what'd be funny is if Bezos go to work this week.

You know what I would do if I was in that situation if I'm by Egros Yalas, I would get in that topic. I would get in and I would say, that's why we're here as in. So I would talk in this post-Personalist or Viagra YouTube jumping, and there's says, Mr. Bezos, we're here to help.

You've been here to see me. By the way, I would get so much like story to Viagra and Cialis, but you don't to do that. There's regulations. If he is, I'm sure there's something behind it as well. But there's, you asked the question, where else would he talk about this?

If there wasn't so. Right, you know where he would do it? Where would he? One week from tomorrow, he'll be on SNL. Elon Musk is hosting Saturday Night Live next Saturday night. What do you think of it? They're not too happy about it. Well, they are not too happy about it.

Well, let me read it. Let me read it. That's a perfect transition. SNL cast members signals they're unhappy about Elon Musk hosting. He's not the first to cause a steer, disassiering, and business. And a surprise move over the weekend Saturday Night Live announced that business mogul Elon Musk will be hosting the NBC Variety Show on May 8th. Some SNL cast members didn't seem to excited about it in an Instagram story cast member.

Bowen Yang wrote, what the f does this even mean as a caption to Musk to eat from over the weekend, which red let's find out just how live Saturday night live really is. This isn't a first time the show has steered up the conversation over its host choices. The biggest controversy regarding a host came in 2015 when S on announced that the Donald Trump would be on the show has steered up the conversation over its host choices. The biggest controversy regarding a host came in 2015 when S. I'll announce that the Donald Trump would be on the show. The news came out while Trump was running for president after he made remarks saying that many Mexican immigrants were criminals and rapists, Hispanic groups asked the show to revoke the invite and a Latino group even offered $5,000 bounty to anyone in the audience, willing to disrupt the show. So why are they unhappy about Elon Musk

going on SNL? What's the big deal? I don't know. Maybe they don't think he's entertaining? I don't know. Let me think it is. Look, I don't know why Bo and Yang, and I actually, I think it's a pretty funny guy.

Well, look, I think one thing that's going to be undeniable when Trump came on and Elon Musk came on, where am I going with this, Pat? Ratings, you know people are going to be turning in. And I'm a huge fan of SNL. I used to do stand up comedy. I love it. I used to be that 13-year-old kid,

glued to my TV, Chris Farley, Adam Sandler, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Norm McDonald. I raised on that kind of stuff. So I still, if I'm not going out on a Saturday night, these days in South Beach Maybe I'll a lot of times I'll just watch SNL, you know on the reruns or whatever, but huge fan of SNL But this is look with Elon Musk. I think this is what we this is why I think maybe he's more of a LeBron than a Jordan With Elon comes controversy, right? He's controversial. He'll tweet things. He's

Unabashedly a capitalist, he'll say some shit, he'll 69 a joke, he'll be an eighth grader, I actually think he'll be quite hilarious on SNL, but there's some people that obviously he rubs the wrong way. So if you're, do you know who Bowen Yang is? Like the person that doesn't want him, do you know who that is? He's a gay Asian, a Gaysian that's on the, I'm gonna coin the coin, I don't know if it's a Gaysian. He's a Gaysian on the show and you know maybe he's not a fan of Elon Musk, I don't know. But he's hilarious and you know I don't know the back story there but... I can think of a script, I think about the Doge father.

the Doge the Doge father. Enter the Doge father. A little dog comes out. They're gonna have fun with it. Are you okay? How about this? How about this? When's the last time you watched SNL? Like a watch the SNL?

Eddie Murphy. In 1986. No, no, no, no. I don't want to come back to a year. Look at that. You made something. So you're gonna have to. I don't watch it. But I'm gonna watch this. Can't remember. 1986. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Okay, so they're upset that Elon Musk is showing up right now imagine how upset the Oscars are

For what happened to them this weekend where nobody cared about their ratings So TV ratings Oscars slum to an all-time low the Hollywood reporters as the 93rd Academy Awards drew 10.4 million viewers on Sunday That's a steep drop you ready folks folks from 23.64 million. Let me get to straight. 23.64 million people watch the Academy Awards last year. This year to only 10.4. The 56% decline in total of yours is keeping and keeping with those for Grammys which well 51%. Golden Globe 62%. Saga one percent golden globe sixty two percent sag awards fifty two percent you think this woke approaches working golden globe sag grammy's and oscars normland took home the coveted best picture of war by lathony opkins was a

sleep and frances make dormant one best actor and actress in leading role anthony opkins i watched the father by the way watch him was on ok move is not i'm obviously he killed it he typically kills him no matter what it is he wins he's asleep the can't even get a hold of him he wants to sleep because he thought he wasn't going to win it at all okay the guys knocked out and he wins and I asked the hopkins victory was an upset of a chat with both men who died in august after private four year battle

calling cancer both men was nominated for best actor for his role in ma rainy's black bottom this year brought a barrier breaking wins including the their private four year battle calling cancer. Bozeman was nominated for best actor for his role in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. This year, I brought the barrier breaking wins, including the first woman of color to win best director and best black woman to win the first black woman to win the best makeup and hair style. So what's the point here? Here's the point. Do you remember when Ricky Jurez hosted?

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Did he host a hero? No, I know. Okay. I mean, that's what he called the famous Speech, but that's a host. Okay. He said that was a monologue that he went up and he says Just when he come up here, and you know, thank your agent. Thank your god

Take the trophy and get the you know and everybody the next day was talking about this, right? So I don't even know why you invite me says. Oh, here we go. Let me see. Oh my gosh Let's start off with this and And he has to accept this. So he went about that brought eyeballs. I watched the Oscars because of Ricky Gervais. I watched it because he was hilarious, right? Called everybody. I'm not going to watch it with Jimmy Kimmel.

I'm not going to watch it with these, you know, people going up there and just giving their same old rhetoric one after another after another. And just this validates that snl should be happy because it's probably going to be their biggest one they've had in the last 12 months for heaven this guy and probably the last time snl had the most viewership i'm willing to bet it's going to be either murphy shepel or trump i'm willing to bet it's one of those openings so we're going to see what's going to happen with musk i think snl should be thankful

snl should be thankful that a guy like Elon Musk has agreed to come. I think it's gonna bring eyeballs that you don't typically get. And as well as the Oscars should invite somebody like him or somebody crazy like him to get up and be a host and talk shit to everybody. Because note like SPs.

What's the, who is the best SPs host of all time? Give some of the best SPs host of all time. Was some of the best S.B.s host of all time. Was it Drake? Drake killed the right guy. Drake was awesome. You know, by the way, he took a shot at Dream on Greens podcast. He says it's sad, right? Peyton Manning got up there and he says,

you know, the swim team, you know, was doing such a great job. Matter of fact, they're doing such a good job that Kevin Durant is thinking about joining them. You're Kevin Durant. Hi. And the camera went on Durant and then it went on Westbrook. You can't even go, I can't, I can't bro, I'm Durant. And then it went on Westbrook.

But, Peyton, what do we like? We like it when the host is taking shots at the athletes, at the actors. No one wants to watch somebody say, how amazing you are. Like, I get uncomfortable. You know how the whole thing even got started? Well, let me tell you, the event was great.

I don't, I'm not a fan of it. I'd much rather just go past it. It's the fun part. It's the shot part. It's the shot part. It's the hey, it's this happened. That happened. That's what the audience kind of wants to see. Right. They don't want to see. You're so amazing. You're so great. Hollywood show. It should be well, you know, we kind of saw what happened there. If what did he say Jervais said, if ISIS was to start a show, not a show. If ISIS was to be the next Netflix,

believe me, you'd call your manager saying, let's try to get on a show. If ISIS was to be the next Netflix, believe me, you'd call your manager saying, let's try to get on the show. Oh yeah, call your agent to get on the show there. He took a shot at Apple. He took a shot at Tim Cook. He took a shot at everybody. Both SNL, Oscars, Grammys, Golden Globes,

they desperately need to bring back and entertaining host who will make fun of them, because that's what America and the world wants to see. However, going back to the vaccine conversation we had at the beginning, unfortunately there's a community today that does not like to hear opposing ideas. I sent this tweet out earlier yesterday.

Went to sleep, woke up. Next thing I know, I'm getting a bunch of private messages from people Hey, Pat, I agree with you. I can't really say anything, but I 100 I can't even tell you to people that message me DM me, okay? I put this tweet out Yesterday, I said let's cancel walking on eggshells. Let's cancel the inability to entertain and go boasting opposing idea Let's cancel forcing everyone having to agree with us Let's cancel judging people for a mistake they made 30 years ago. Let's cancel extreme sensitivity.

Let's just respect one another. Right. I mean, what a concept. How hard is that to do? What a concept. You know what was the most interesting thing about this simple concept? People disagreed. Really? People that actually disagreed are the ones that entertain me the most.

When you go down there and read some of the ones that they disagree with the by the way for whatever reason you I mean if you go down to use read some of this you'll see the disagreements that make but anyways that's my thoughts on Oscars what do you think about Oscars being down 56% decline much like you and not oh sorry Matt no good no I was just saying much like you and SNL I don't watch the Oscars I you out of everybody doesn't watch The soy boy might not for sure you were sitting there with another pad and pen ready to take knowledge So this is a dumb question the Oscars are for movies is that what it is? Okay, like I don't watch movies

I just don't I don't know why you're not a movie guy. I used to be when I was a kid. I love the movies I had my running top 10. I love the movies. I had my running top 10. I love the movies. I just don't watch movies ever. I don't go to the movie theaters. I can't solve Netflix. Is that because you spend most of your time on that website called OnlyFans?

I just don't watch the Oscars. I don't know, but I would watch it if there was an entertaining host or some controversy. I would. I'm just not a movie guy, but that's my opinion. Would you, I would watch it. Bill Borgad up and he said a couple things. And by the way, you know what was crazy? That Bill Burr wasn't himself when he was hosting a couple months ago. Even himself wasn't himself, he was so worried.

A Bill Burr who doesn't give a crap, he was worried about what to say. He's worried about getting canceled. He was worried about what's gonna happen. I say, like, I'm walking on eggshells, like, oh man, just let it make, let's go. Like take some shots, tell some jokes, let's have some fun, let's go through it, you know, it's gotta be that kind of an environment. That's what happens, you know, and by the way, a great sales meeting, you know, it's a great sales meeting.

That's what happens. When there's a good news, I'm gonna tell you what we're gonna do to you guys. Can't wait. It's that's what makes it exciting. You need a versus. You ever been to an insurance conference We would like to take this moment to think

John and Mary for a wonderful job. They did this last year with the With this by the way just me even acting I guarantee we just lost Right you go to these insurance conferences. You know these these conventions They put all the People are going to slit their wrist committing suicide, how boring this thing is right now. Now, when you host an insurance conference, you also tell people, people put it with a knife, but it's not going to cause security things are thrown around. Yeah, you should see Saipala and Riccacular going at it, right? I mean, Titans, I can't wait for our conference in the MGM grand. I mean, we have one coming up in May, but the one in august when we have mike thyson i did

he's gonna be at a sales car like i can see the heat of the but let me tell you what trump said to the ask us here's what donald trump said to the askers donald trump ceases on askers low uh... oscar rating to bash telecasts he says don't be so politically correct and boring that's bashted line apparently that's called bashing if you say don't be so politically correct and boring. Donald Trump's office emailed a statement to report his Tuesday in which the former president bashed the Oscars noting it's low ratings

and suggesting it returned a host to the proceedings and changed its name back to Academy Awards. What used to be called the Academy Awards is now called the Oscars, a far less important and I'll get named, had the lowest television rating in recorded history, even much lower than last year, which set another record of they keep with the current ridiculous formula, it would only get worse

if that's possible. Trump said, go back 15 years, look at the formula, they then use, change the name back to the Academy Wars. Don't be so politically correct and boring and do it right. Also bring back a great host, these television people spent all their time thinking about how to promote the democratic party which is destroying our country and cancel conservatives and republicans that formula certainly hasn't worked very well for the academy as president trump only took

to criticize and the telecast including last year when he bashed oscar voters for giving best picture to parasite at a rally he said to the south uh... korean film what the hell was that all about we We've got enough primes with South Korea with trade on top of it. They give the best movie of the year to them. Was it good? I don't know.

So, there you go. Even Trump had something to say about the Aussies. Well, I've shut up to my wife. Maybe my boo-boo, she knows. She's a big Korean anything. Korean dramas, Korean face masks, Korean skimprata, you know, Korean barbecue. And we did check out Parasite. It was in a good movie to be able to say, you know, it

warrants the Oscar. I didn't think it was a good movie. I didn't think it was an Oscar worthy type of movie. But when you're looking at what he just said here, you know, people want to be entertained. That's why people check out the ghost scene movie because they want to be entertaining, they want to check entertained. That's why people check out to go see him, because they want to be entertaining, they want to check out of the current reality. And I think with the platform that I've seen, and to see what happened to Kevin Hart a few years ago, because he was taking out because of tweets

he did 12 years ago, when he is a comedian, and just to see what these types of things have got, we haven't watched anything on Sunday nights for a very long time outside effect that we do conference calls on Sunday nights But there's no desire for me to be able to break up from my current schedule versus spend time with my family or our business And why not say I want to watch these awards. Do you agree with Mr. Donald Trump? I agree with Mr. Matt Sa'Paula. That's my guy right there. Do I agree with Trump?

I think look whether I agree with you. Well, I don't watch the Oscars Let me just say that but look where Trump's mind is that right now? He's not worried about trade, he's not worried about policies, he's not worried about climate. He's worried about the Oscars. No, he's not worried about Oscars. He's worried about the Oscars.

He's worried about cancel culture, silence, against audience. That's what he, if that's what you took from it, you're the kind of person that when you read scripture, you need 15 people to translate it for you. You made it. You guys read Hebrew. I can read. Yeah, I can read. Honestly, I can read. You're what's he was cool. Did you watch Passion Christ? With Mel Gibson. Yeah, I did. Did you?

You know, they were just understand the language or no? I can't speak Hebrew. I can read it. But was it? I could read it. I can't understand the language. There's a difference. I thought I was spoken in Aramaic. Yeah, that was it. It was Aramaic and the Syrian. But I want to say something. I think there's obviously one notable thing to mention as well as what movies really came out last year.

I think that's a big thing for obviously the Oscars have been going downwards. But a big part of it is what movies came out last year. So I got a question for you. Say no movies came out last year, but Kevin Hart was hosting would you tune in? Say no movies came out last year, but Elon Musk was hosting would you tune in? Say no movie.

No good movies came out last year, but Ricky J. Racer's hosting would you tune in? Say no good movies came out last year, but Dave Shapel is hosting would you tune in? Come on. Say no movie. You understand what I'm saying to you. Say no. I'm so good movies came out.

A good host makes a show. This is why people spend money to bring a great host to any event. And MC makes a concert. And MC makes a wedding. You've been to a wedding where the MC is like, okay, make some noise for the bride and the groom. Okay, awesome.

All right. All right, everybody, get up. And let me tell you, we got them coming up, period. Family on the left right. Everybody get up and let me tell you we got them coming up Period, family on the left right right. Oh my gosh. What's going on with this guy? You ever gotten up You're like, what's going on with this host kind of makes you move. We went to a New Year's Persian New Year party at our friend's house, Nader. Okay. Just met Nader very. I love this guy, man It's just a classic guy and we're there at his house in South Florida, South Florida, the beautiful home, Harbor Island,

anyways. And we're standing around, it's me, my wife, she's pregnant, she has no desire to stand up and I said, baby, we're gonna stay for one hour, we'll leave at 10, 30, I promise you, we'll have that two o'clock in the morning. Next thing you know, music is playing, all this stuff. They bring these four dancers,

girls, four dancers. What did they do? They're the ones that come and grab your hands and we're running. Jennifer's like, dude, I'm pregnant. Jennifer is dancing Persian music. I'm dancing Persian music because somebody's livin' up the place, right?

Now imagine if that wasn't there. You're not dancing that night, huh? I tell you, I'm not dancing that night if they don't bring me out. You need a good host. So, yes, even though we didn't have any good movies, a host would have changed a show. You were gonna say something, Matt?

No, I was wondering if you were doing the... Yeah, the... Yes. I'll tell you one quick story. I was at a wedding, this was probably, at what age did all your friends start getting married? What age? Late 20s, early 30s.

Okay, late 20s, right? So one of my friends, who's my college roommate, shout out to Nick Carito if he's watching this right now He's a wedding crash your story or I was invited although I have crashed many of weddings But he was like one of our first friends to get married I think we were like 27 years old. Yeah, ironically married a girl from San Antonio So everyone flew to San it. We're all broke. We got no one's got money. You're 26 27 years old. No one's got money So he's got no money. We're all getting married. This guy

We're getting married or well, they all like yeah, we're all we all go to the wedding. Yeah, you know, we're staying at the like Ink does nothing fancy whatsoever, you know, he didn't have a band. He had like a one San Antonio Mexican DJ press and play. This guy did not have the it factor at all. It was a cash bar, like, come on. Like, again, just very low budget wedding. And, I mean, by 11 o'clock, people are like, this is a word of work. Okay. Oh, or like, people are like, Adam, you gotta get on the mic. You gotta, you gotta, and I was doing a standup comedy

and some are like, dude, you gotta, you gotta go do something, bro. Like, the guy, this guy's wedding is the worst. So, I go up to the DJ who basically, he was the DJ and the microphone. I was like, hey buddy, you mind if I take the mic and take over, he goes, please. Like, gives me the, bro, I go, I go, all right, put this song on, I'm so uncle Luke, I go, everybody, circle up, circle up. And I just completely hyped this party. And I'm like, grandma, get your ass on the dance for grandma's okay like I got the bachelor and I'm freaking the grandma I'm

getting the bridesmaids going on but I hyped it up so what you are saying is maybe I do agree with Donald Trump you got to get a good home to get the part of there it is I came full I think I think what I think what I really took away by what you just saw what you just said right now is the Oscarsish higher you next I think your plan I'd hype it up I'm gonna go behind the line for a job. I'd pull off the left. I'd call off the right. There you go. Take my application Okay, all right. By the way last last point. Yeah, the wedding was supposed to end at midnight We stayed till two in the morning. I believe you that we freaked out. You're a hype guy though. You're a dude. Oh, you're a hype guy. Yes

Okay, what story do we want to go to next? Let's see what story we got here. Let's go to, let's go to Biden wanting to spend an extra $80,000 for IRS to enhance enforcement. What do I like a dear thing to do? Let's cover that right there. Very sweet. Page eight.

Is that 80 billion? Biden to seek an extra $80 billion for IRS to enhance enforcement, the Hill says. President Biden is expected to propose given the IRS an additional 80 billion dollars and added authority to order to facilitate his plan to target high earners who avoid paying taxes to New York Times or Port of Tuesday. The enforcement is a key part of Biden's plan

to pay for social infrastructure legislation. Dub the American families plan the effort is expected to cost at least a trillion dollars and it's aimed at reducing inequality by making investments and affordable childcare and paid family leave, free community college, and other issues. The Times reported that administration officials believe the IRS crackdown could raise

as much as $700 billion over the next 10 years, paying for a chunk of the plan bill, citing two sources close to the issue. The Times reported that the added money and authorities provide the IRS would go along with new disclosure requirements for those who own businesses not organized as corporations and wealthy individuals who could be hiding income. So spending $80 billion to hire more IRS agents, what are your thoughts on that, Adam? I think,

Hi, did you get that email from Mario or no? Okay, good, go ahead. The one thing that I'm seeing here is the return on investment. And that's where my mind is at. Whether this is a good idea, a bad idea, I think we can have that debate. And I'm open to hearing obviously

different sides of the suggestion. But if he's saying that he's going to propose an $80 billion investment to make back $700 billion, I learned from, I don't want to give you too much kudos and too much praise, but you did at your trip with the SLS. You talked about the incentive trips and that if you're going to incentivize your sales force with trips and gifts and cars that you need to make at least 5x on your money, right? That's how you've done your math and your business. That was amazing.

Check it out. Look at that. Just take us a note. So I'm taking some notes and I kind of do want to go to Borabor one day. But I'll settle for Vegas in August. I'm good with that, whatever it is. But the point is, if he's looking at it, say, look, we put an 80-billy,

and we can get out 700-billy, Joe Biden might just have a good idea in his hands. Whether the idea... That's assuming you're gonna get 700-billy. You know what happens when you make an assuming. Yeah, so I'm just looking at the return on Vest. What do you think, Matt? You know, when you're looking at this,

you know, I think there's some improvement, obviously, to the IRS, because you know, just with us filing out paperwork, the IRS, just as a business owner, there's such a lag time and getting a response back from the IRS, let alone the enforcement of certain things. But you know, when you're looking at enhancing enforcement, you know, anytime a tax plan goes through,

they call it the AAAFAIA accountants attorneys financial advisor insurance agents employment plan because it keeps, you know, it keeps such a great point, you know, it keeps everybody wanting to connect, AAAFAIA attorneys accountant financial advisor and investment advisors act, employment act to keep them, you know, in connection with their professionals to make sure that they're using that. There's a difference between tax evasion and tax planning, right? And so if there's certain legal ways to make sure you have your money in ways that's not being whacked in taxes and it's legal, you just got to find a right people that know how

to apply those certain things. So sure, he's gonna spend his 80 billion. Is it pretty lofty, expectate for seven or a bit? I think so. But do I think that the infrastructure of the IRS needs to be improved? Because even for us, it's just simple business people just to try to get certain things.

Like for example, when she and I got married, they didn't get our marriage license and all that stuff intact and they try to tax us individually versus a married, finally, jointly. And they're trying to get us for X-MineAdels. It stayed in our credit report for a minute and it was annoying to get that off.

It was an error on there, but we finally got the error from the IRS. So certain things just need to be improved with the IRS. I'm not so sure it's gonna really happen here with enforcement though. Yeah, I think the direction they're taking, I told my accountant, I said, so what do you think about the tax plan?

He says, well, we're pretty excited about it. It's like the more money they spend on IRS, the more money we make. Sure. He says, the more you guys get out of it, the more you have to pay to feed to us. So there goes a two to four hundred dollars an hour that they're paying us.

He says, for us, for our business, quite honestly, this helps us out. Accountants, big accounting firms love it anytime the IRS hires more people, right? Now, what happens as well with IRS hiring more people? They also get people to spend more time away from work producing, to do audits, paperwork, accounting, all that other stuff. So that money and time also goes away

from doing what you're doing. Are there people, because what they're starting to say now is if you have your money in offshore accounts, they're now categorically calling you a greedy, whatever, whatever. Now here's one part, I don't have my money in offshore accounts, all my money's in America I'm America. I'm pro America's what I am

But if a guy wants to put his money in another account that's offshore I don't consider that being a crook. I don't consider that a scam. I don't consider that a con artist I consider that a creative accountant that's telling him to here's how you're able to save money a story came out That said do we have the story or no guy? A story came out talking about how, if you know what direction I'm going with the story here, a story came out talking about how, you know, people are being recommended how to, or the tax, how advisors are going to be getting their clients, billionaires are going to find ways to avoid paying

the taxes by getting creative, what offshore accounts. So Biden wants to touch up on those who are also gonna go to offshore and put their money elsewhere. Anyways, I mean, if you're trying to get more tax money and audit more people, the more money you spend on the IRS, all this means is folks, the chances of you getting audited in 2021 and 2022 just went up. So brace for impact. You're about to get audited in 2021 and 2022 just went up. So brace for impact. You're about to get audited.

Yes. Can you comment? You said, look, I'm pro America. I keep my money in America. I don't have offshore. We called it creative accounting. Give us some insight. When you've got a nice chunk of change out there,

why you said, all right, I could do stuff offshore, but I'm not gonna. And why people do in the incentive. I don't judge it, though. If you want to, like, for example, people say, why would you leave California? Why don't you stay in California, go run for governor?

I don't wanna stay in California. We got the major Williams, we reached out to us. You know, major Williams, the gentleman that's running for. We're gonna grab a governor, California. Listen, we're gonna give him the platform. He's gonna come out here, we're gonna have a great conversation with Mike, and I cannot wait. And because what I like about his approach,

when we talk about adding the tourist tax, he watched a he immediately added to this website that hey we are gonna be doing the tourist so I'm excited about how he added yes he added it he's gonna do California tourist tax and lower the tax he's a valetiner he's a valetiner he's a valetiner he's on here we're excited to have him but we'll have but I moved from you to Texas. Why? I thought it was a better place for me to be, both for business, for family, for safety, for many different reasons. I felt I was more welcomed in the state of Texas than I was welcomed in the state of California. Toer than I went and went and moved to work

to now being in Florida. I love Texas. I love Florida. I want to raise my kids here at this point of our lives. Okay. To somebody that may say, why would you leave Texas to Florida? I chose to move to Texas to Florida. I want to raise my kids here at this point of our lives. Okay, to somebody They say why would you leave Texas to Florida? I chose to move to Texas to Florida. If I talk to a billionaire And he says I got a hundred million dollars and an offshore account at the Caribbean or whatever it is great more power to you What does that save you 20 million year? Okay, great phenomenal the guy met a coven who bought people's every day's for 69.3 million dollars lives in

COVID who bought people's every day for $69.3 million lives in lives in Singapore, right? We were doing our taxes the other day, a couple weeks over doing our taxes, and it's going through how much you have here, how much you have here, how much you have here. There was hundreds of disclosures that we have to answer on what we have. Singapore, you don't answer anything.

You leave your income taxes, you go, and you go about your business, right? Guess what, that's pretty attractive. Now, some industries could move to Singapore. Other industries that need people cannot move to Singapore. If you're business more online and you can do it being online like if you're in the crypto space, digital space, e-commerce, you can be in Singapore, but I can't be in Singapore. I like being here for my business.

I'm not going to judge the guy that went to Singapore. A lot of podcasts move their podcasts to be in Singapore. I like being here for my business. I'm not gonna judge the guy that went to Singapore. A lot of podcasts move their podcasts to where in America. Do you remember what the movement was? What state everybody in the city? No, no, no, no, Puerto Rico. Oh, really? Because of their program that they came up with, which I think it's called 420 program,

which means you only pay 4% of taxes for 20 years. Federal is only 4% taxes for 20 years. So, podcasters are like, look, I'm just running a good podcast. I don't have to be in California for podcasts. I don't have to be in New York for podcasts. It's me and three employees. Why do I need to be in New York or in Texas or California? A podcaster moves to Puerto Rico. What are you gonna do? You're gonna judge him for moving to Puerto Rico? No more power to you. Why do you go out there and save your money? So, anytime you do these kinds of things, move to Puerto Rico. What are you going to do? You're going to judge him for moving to Puerto Rico. No more power to you, but you go out there and save your money.

So, anytime you do these kinds of things, what they don't realize is the world is filled with smart people who are going to find creative ways to minimize having to pay taxes. The world is filled with it. And what people don't realize is, you can't go try to tax people as much as you want. Here's what's going to happen with corporations.

Corporations never pay taxes. Let me say that one more time. Corporations never pay taxes. What do you mean, Pat? Okay, so Biden gets it in his speech said what? Do you know that 50% of corporations paid zero percent in taxes and they made $50 billion.

I went to the CEO. Yeah, I went to whatever. They paid no taxes last year. Okay, yes. You raised your taxes. Corporations are still not going to pay taxes. What do you mean? Let me explain it to you.

It's very simple. Corporations pay lots of money to accountants to address the taxes you. The accountants who are best at what they do, they educate their clients to best, and corporations in order to make that money because how many pennies are in a dollar? If we make taxes 90 percent, how many pennies are in a dollar? If we make taxes 0 percent, how many pennies are in a dollar? 100. If we make, you understand, no matter what you do there's only a hundred pennies in a dollar and the margins for a company What margins do companies have to run on say 10 to 20 percent no matter what you do the margins are the margins

Yeah, so if you decide to increase corporate tax rate and hire 80 billion dollars worth of people to work for the IRS Corporations will not pay taxes. They will either raise the price of the product the price of the service higher or less Get rid of some of their commercial property, which means real estate industry will take it It doesn't matter corporations will not pay the taxes the tax gets passed down To the service they offer goes up the burger is not gonna be six bucks. It'll be ten bucks The pizza is not gonna be 999. It'll be 1399, okay? The soda you were buying, like the other day I want to buy a piece of bazooka gum.

You know those bubble gum, bubble gum, whatever they are? You remember those bubble gum, right? You know what it was 20 years ago? 49 cents. You know what I paid for the thing? 259. I'm like, I left it, that's how much was this? 7-11, 259, what for for you mean to tell me this thing for this thing's price has five X

in the last 20 years yes that makes no sense to me well it makes all the sense in the world corporations don't pay taxes they don't pay taxes because there's only a hundred pennies and a dollar. No matter how nice you wanna look, they're not gonna pay the taxes. They're gonna pass it down to their customers. The customers end up paying the highest price. Whatever you're buying today folks, it's about to go up. Whatever you're buying today's about to go up.

The same thing can be said about raising wages. Let's get the federal rate. He's about to get the maximum out. That's right. So the same is gonna happen. The customer's gonna pay for that. There's almost so much you can much you can hit a company with. And I see both sides of it arguing, but when I see people demanding a $15 an hour, it's

31,000, $300 a year, you still can't live on that. You can't even buy the average house. And we looked at a report about what the average income you need to make to buy the average house per state. In Illinois, it's $54,000, $60,000, you need to make a year to buy the average house in Illinois. And we're gonna talk about all of Illinois. California's six figures.

You need to make six figures by the average house in California. So 15 bucks an hour will not save you. It'll help you up a little, play up a little bit, but it's not gonna help you achieve that. The challenges in that. The challenges to encourage people to learn new skill sets. 100%. You know, help you up a little, play up a little bit, but it's not gonna help you achieve that. The challenge is in that. The challenge is to encourage people

to learn new skillsets. 100%. The challenge is to learn new skillsets. Okay. Matt, in the last two years, what new skillsets have you learned? Adam, in the last two years, what new skillsets have you learned?

YouTube, social media, marketing, your channel's about to be 100,000. You guys got 87,000, 88,000 subs. What? Secret, crazy, bro. Crazy, that's Crazy. Yeah. So you learn YouTube, you learn social media.

What are the new skills that have you learned? I learned how to be a good boss to employees and a good driver sales leader to 1099 in a very different dynamic. Correct. What else have you learned in the last two years? I mean, what have you learned in the last two years? I'm going to come to you next.

What have you learned in the last two years? I've learned how to manage my time better. I know how I've learned how to you next. What have you learned the last two years? I've learned how to manage my time better. I know how to be a better salesperson and be a better leader. And I've learned clearly everything. I've never done a podcast before. Social. Video. Telepronter.

Pat taught me how to use Twitter a couple of weeks ago. He said, I gotta get on that. Point is, I think what you're going here, if you're not improving, you're slowly dying. Is your value tim in economics episode doing better now or better five months ago when you started? Better now, but night and days, that a fair session. Yeah, I'm getting better, I'm more confident, I'm more...

What did we do to make it better? Do we hire some people? Yeah, hired some people. Do you have a team that's helping you out? Shout out to my guy, myself. Do you have a team of editors that are helping you out? Yeah, for sure. Did you kind of make the set a little bit better? Did we? Shout out to my guy myself. Do you have a team of editors that are helping you out? Did you kind of make the set a little bit better?

Did we figure out ways to make the set better by studying? Have you proven proven proven proven proven? Kai, what have you learned in the last couple of years? Skill says, new skill says that's helping increase your value in a marketplace. I mean, obviously YouTube, social media, not only leading, but also managing people now events running events preparing for events Research content creation So a lot of stuff a bunch of different things right and then on top of that every week when we're doing this stuff

We're learning new things right? Okay, if you want to increase your market value forget about the 15 bucks an hour Go learn five new skill sets Go learn how to do something. Yeah, I mean that's the best solution to fight against minimum wage I didn't hear one time somebody talking about yesterday, one Biden spoke, go learn a new skill set. From zero. Let's go improve ourselves. Let's put the onus on the person rather than it's unfair.

It's unfair. It's unfair. Crisis, crisis, crisis, crisis, crisis. It's unfair. It's unfair. Stop telling me how unfair it is. Tell me, challenge me. Put the onus on me. Challenge me to get better. Yes, I understand there are certain things that

happen when he said he said something yesterday. It's not people's fault that we send the check to them. It's not people's fault that they lost a job or they lost a restaurant. I agree. It's not. It's the government's fault. It's the policies of states like California and New York that decided to show everybody down Illinois. How come Florida didn't take the similar hit? How come Texas didn't take a similar hit? How come some of these states didn't take, so what you're saying is you're right,

it is not their fault. It's the politicians fault. I agree with you. He himself said it's our fault. But he didn't say it. He didn't say it. He just said it's not your fault. It's the virus's fault.

It's not the virus's fault. Crisis is gonna happen for a long time. It's the virus's fault. It's not the virus's fault. Crisis is going to happen for a long time. It's the politicians who lead that state's fault who don't know how to manage a crisis. Okay? Cuomo was supposed to be the next president just 11 months ago. Newsom was supposed to be the next president just 11 months ago. Now, if you look at what just happened recently,

if we can go to page seven, go to page seven with this recall in the state of California, some people just a few months ago were saying they don't think this is gonna be taking place. Well, now, Governor Gavin Newsom to face recall election as Republican-led effort hits signature goal, LA Times, propelled by growing voter frustration

over California's response to COVID-19 pandemic, Republican-led drive to remove Governor Newsom from office, collected enough voter registration to qualify for the ballot state official report in Monday, triggering for only the second time in the state history, a rapid fire campaign to decide whether or whether to oust a sitting governor, recall backer submitted more than 1.495 verified voter registration equal to 12% of all ballot cast in the last guber national election meeting the minimum threshold to force a special recall election according to a tally released by secretary of state Shirley Weber. Two and a half years ago, Newsom won the governor office by the largest margin in modern

history, capping the telegenic democratic steady rise to the pinnacle of California politics, that began in 1996 when San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown appointed him to the city's parking and traffic commission. So when you do that, this is what happens. What are the voters in California responding to? To the way you have managed a crisis called COVID. Now the people get to vote.

Kai, can you pull up that article I sent to you Pull up that article I sent you this is this is interesting to look at and this kind of leads me to the next two links That I sent to you. That's the Reuters one, but let's not go to Reuters yet first go to the Newsom article I sent you that shows what percentage of Democrats supported and didn't support but anyways Adam. What do you think about this? I mean with Newsom. anyways, Adam, what do you think about this? I mean, with Newsom. Yeah, I mean, what, there's a couple different lessons here. Number one is a fall from Grace.

I mean, he had the largest margin of victory since, when did they say since 96? So you're talking about a guy who was beloved, you know, I don't want to use that term too loosely, but very liked. And now, even Democrats are like, yeah, dude, you know, I don't want to use that term too loosely, but very liked and now Even Democrats are like yeah, dude. This guy. I mean come on man Not so much and I think ultimately your point is crisis management

How are you handling a crisis you're gonna be dealing with the crisis no matter what state you're in no matter what country and how do you Respond to that like how many times it's kind of like you know,, you can fall, you get knocked down 10 times, get up, get up 11. He mismanaged this crisis completely. I know he was the, I know we joke he was the you all employee of the year. And that he was, uh, what's the laundry, the restaurant and San Francisco he was eating out of his time. So what causes, so what causes one is hypocrisy You're telling me to stay home, but you're at French laundry Okay, you're telling me not to put any parties But you go into a party with 350 people with no one wearing a mask

Okay, you're you're messing with Elon Musk and you're telling them they can't work what Elon Musk calls you I didn't eventually say okay you guys can get to work and in Elon Musk leaves You have the number one podcaster in the world the guy named named George O'Rogue and you end up losing him, okay? You got a guy whose oracle is sitting there, the guy's upset so he has plans of leaving. You got companies that are wanting to leave their headquarters to a different place.

You got a city like San Francisco that the world loves going to stay for vacation. One of our favorite places to go to. Now it's a mess. There's a website saying what places poops sitting around when you're walking the city of San Francisco. There's a poop watch website for San Francisco. How pathetic is that? And you're the governor, not the mayor, not a congressman, not a senator. You're essentially the president of the sixth largest economy in the world,

and you've screwed up the last 12 months. And you were so excited to impeach the president twice. Guess what? Now it's coming back. Now it's coming back at you, and you don't like it. And here's what he has to say, yes, that if you can pull up his tweet, I send a tweet to you as well,

Kai, I don't know if you have it. His tweet says the Republican, by the way, I won't actually watch that video as well. So hold the video, we'll go to it in a second to raise the volume. I want everybody to watch a video as well. Yeah, but hang tight on that video. You can actually, yeah, the Republican recall threatens

or values and seeks to undo the important progress we've made from fighting COVID to helping struggling families protect our government, protect our environment and passing commonsense, gun violence solutions. There's too much at stake. He doesn't get a lot of likes. He get a ton of comments, not enough tweets.

Can you flip the screen? There you go to do that way. If you can make that screen bigger and play the video. And tell me if this is a motivational video or scare into hell out of your video. What kind of a movie is this? Watch this. Go ahead. When you some anti-vaccine Q and on extremists, violent white supremacists like the proud boys What kind of a movie is this? Watch this. Go ahead. national committee. Instead of helping fight the pandemic, national Republicans are coming to fight Californians. Stop the Republican recall. It's a power grab.

Not. Who's behind? We're not coming. So where's the response about why are they not going after other liberal states? Why are they coming after you? Okay. Samad, what do you think about this?

It's, it's, so Tantra, your first question. It is a fear based, the fear based type of ad campaign. Kai, go back to the main article, please go ahead. You know, when I was stationed in California, is the United States Marine? I we love Calis Southern Cal over there, Southern California, Dana point Newport Beach area, San Diego. And one thing I've always befuddled me, he says, I was going my business. I got it. The military started growing my business in California is Chicago's got some horrible

traffic, but LA, damn, yeah. That is some traffic out there. And all I'm thinking, when I think about one word, when I think about California, I think one word, I think bottleneck. So many things are bottlenecked over there, and it's sadly poorly run.

Nobody trusts the public school system there in California. Everything's about the private school in California. You know, when you think about these businesses and even parts of Hollywood, who's also recruiting people out of California is Tyler Perry. He's recruiting Hollywood to shoot movies

in his Georgia location. Yeah, yeah, beautiful canvas by the way. And so when you're thinking about that, you have this great opportunity. I think you mentioned something a lot when you're coaching us, PBD. You said you forget what's like to be the new guy. I wonder if you forgot what it was like to be

that new guy in 1996 when he was a part of the Parking and Traffic Commission. I remember it feels like to be just a normal citizen and because sometimes when you have that element of power and you're sitting there in Sacramento, you're sitting there as a governor, number one in charge, you kind of forget what it's like to relate to the brand new person there struggling in that LA traffic.

My thoughts. I can see that. What are you saying? Anything else? You know, being that I'm a Florida boy born and raised in Miami and I live in all throughout Florida, I actually had this conversation with Ricky and one last time when we had dinner. And I basically completely understood why he's so anti-democratic party where I was like, dude, I'm, my point is this. There's a big difference between a Florida Democrat and a California Democrat. Just like there's

a big difference between being a California Republican and an Alabama Republican. So I think part of the problem in this country is that when you're so far left or you're so far right the best ideas don't win the best ideas typically win in florida because we're a purple state and you and people are like well you know i could go this way i can maybe think this way and ten percent

movement of the uh... voting block could actually determine an election. You can do, you could be the best Republican candidate in California. And unless your name is Arnold Schwarzenegger, it's going to be very hard to win anything, because I'm guessing 70% of the voting contingency in California is going to be Democrat. So you have to convert 20% just to get to 50%. So, can you get to the bottom of the article

that shows how many Democrats voted for this? It's the link I sent you. Is this the one I sent you? Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep there it is, right there. Okay, flip the screen to go on the big screen guys instead of being on me. Make it a little bit bigger, make it a little bit bigger, go control plus.

Doesn't do it. Okay, there you go. How California and different parties would vote on the new sum recall? As a March 30, only 40% likely voters said they vote yes to remove governor while about eight in 10 Republicans would vote to remove new sum eight in 10 Democrats would vote to keep them and look at that. All likely voters, 40% won this guy out. 15% of Democrats, so that video they said about, you know, it's only Republicans, Republican funded. No, no, no, no, no, no, 15% of Democrats in the state of California.

They want you out 79% Republicans. I understand want you out 42% of independence want you out by the way, you know which I'll let which of those three matters the most to get a life far In a way independent of course, and 40% of want you out They're not talking about that that ad that they purple Republicans this no no no 42% of independence want you out. So it's not a Republican thing. It's an independent thing who wins president elections Independence correct independence the vote you want to win the president election correct that tells you everything here Right, so they can say anything they want with the videos and all this other stuff. Nope. It's not just the Republicans What you always talk about that 46% of people are gonna vote Democrat 44% of people are gonna vote Republican

That's it like is that the number 40 46 42, 42, 44, 42 point is that it's low to mid forties. You're locked in, bro. You're not a free thinker. This is it is what it is. It's baked in the cake. I don't want to hear what the other side has to say. I don't give a shit if they're right. If they're wrong, I'm voted for Trump. I don't give a shit. I'm going for it, but it is what it is. And I think what our country needs and urns for in any time that we talk about a third party candidate. Would you vote for the rock?

Would you vote for Makanae? Well, may fucking be. Because independent thinking is probably the best course of action at this point. Because if you're just too dead set on an ideal and not, I'm sorry set on an ideal and not, I'm sorry, on a candidate and not an actualized set of ideals, then you can't be swayed and you're free thinking

doesn't matter. That'd be an interesting thing to see the rock actually votes, I'm sorry, it actually runs for president and how many votes he would actually bring. What do you think you'd run into democratic platform? I think it would be a Democrat. I think he should probably have a Republican vice president. Ooh, okay.

But be smart. I'd like to see something like that. By the way, shout out to the rocks. Younger step cause in, Matt Zipala from New York. Thank you, bro. We are still far from cracking this thing over me. I gotta get to this car. I'm on that.

Okay, so next story, let's talk about what happened with Erdogan and Biden's Armenian genocide. I think that's a pretty interesting story that's being built up. And I don't think it's gonna go away because Turkey is not too happy about it. It's on page seven. Erdogan calls on Biden to reverse calling mass killings of Armenians a genocide.

This is an NBC story. Biden's historic declaration on Saturday has infuriated Turkey, which has said the announcement has opened a deep one in relations. Ankara, Turkish president, recap, type Erdogan called on President Joe Biden to immediately reverse his declaration that the 1950maskers of Armenians and Ottoman Empire constituted genocide. A movie said was upsetting.

And diminished bilateral ties. Biden's historic declaration on Saturday has infuriated. We know that the NATO ally in his first comments as Biden statement Erdogan said, the wrong step would hinder ties and advise the United States to look in the mirror. Adding Turkey still sought to establish good and neighborly ties with Armenia. The U.S. President has made baseless, unjust, untrue remarks about the sad events that took place. In our geography over the century.

Go Erdogan said after a cabinet meeting and repeated a call for Turkish, in Armenian historians to formal joint commission to investigate the events, I hope the U.S. President will turn back from his wrong step as soon as possible. If you say genocide, then you need to look at yourself in a mirror and make an evaluation. The Native Americans, I don't even need to mention them. What happened is clear. He said in a reference to the treatment of Native Americans by European settlers. While all these truths are out there, you cannot pin the genocide accusations on the Turkish people. Do you have any strong opinions on this yourself?

I'm just curious what you got to say. Okay. So do you have anything on that or no? I just I wanted to obviously get your opinion on this. Well, I think just stating facts, a million Armenians were killed by the, by the Ottoman Empire in 1915. Yeah. And obviously working for an Armenian, a Syrian, Middle Eastern, Iranian, and my friend T. Grant and Moral, I've learned to understand this.

And then being a Jew whose great aunts and uncles and great grandparents were killed in the Holocaust, anytime you hear the word genocide or Holocaust, it brings up a source subject. So I know it's a touchy subject for all Armenians. And this is actually whether you're a fan of Biden or not, something that I would assume you applaud. Yeah, well, I did a video about it.

And I said, you know, Kudos to them for doing it because this is a NATO. This is a country that's part of NATO, Turkey is. And this is a country that's got US military bases there that we kind of need. Biggest Air Force bases, yes. And this is a country that is the most powerful military in the Middle East.

This is a country that is both close to Russia and close to US. Is this going to push them to get closer to Russia? The good news is Turkey still needs America. It relies on America for their commerce, for their business. And within Turkey, there are people in Turkey that are glad this took place.

And they've publicly talked about it and Erdogans tried to silence them But there's a community that's saying let's just get out there and say we did this and let's get it over with so This is not a good place right now for Erdogan, but let me give you what if let me give you what if I was that movie that Promise promise phenomenal. I'm the promise If Kirk or you the talk of the core you know He spent a hundred million million and I think the movie didn't make any money, but it wasn't a goal of his

to make money. He just wanted to make a very good movie. Christian, great actors if you've never seen it, it's fantastic. But here's the biggest what if, what if Biden turns on this? What if Biden takes, you know, because sometimes Biden gets up there and says something

and then AOC says something, and he's like, well, we do have to kind of change our position. They are kind of right, and then he backtracks. If he does that, that's a different story. Do I think it's gonna happen? I don't think that's gonna be taking place for him to backtrack, but I also don't think Erdogan is done with.

I don't think Erdogan is done with. I don't think Erdogan's gonna sit here and accept this. You have to understand, if this gets all the way to the top and it's official, what comes next is reparations and reparations in a genocide just like Germany have to pace like comps. You know how you buy a house and you say this house worth $600,000. The guy says, no, this is 750 house. Show me the comps.

They pull three houses next to you that just sold for 750 and the house is one of them was smaller than yours. Guess what? This is a 750,000 dollars. It's not a 600,000 dollars. Then the buyer says, okay, fine, I'll pay you 750, right? When it comes down to events like this, Holocaust, you know, the Cambodian genocide, the Armenian genocide,

the Assyrian genocide, the Greek genocide done by the Ottoman Empire, there's gonna be some comps being made. And when these Armenian folks who are working at DC make these comps, this is not gonna be a $50 billion reparation. This is not gonna be a $100 billion reparation. This is gonna be a massive number that Turkey is gonna be forced to pay that's gonna take them decades to pay.

Maybe 50 years to pay. Won't be a small chunk of change. It'll be close to $1 trillion, I believe. The number's gonna be a big number for them to pay. So Turkey doesn't want that to happen. All the proof is now coming out, and if that takes place, this will not only be a good look worldwide for Turkey, this will not be a good look for Turkey when it comes

down to their pockets. And the pockets is what they're also worried about, tremendously history, pride, pocket, all that's going to come together as Armenians are going to go to DC next, saying, all that's going to come together as Armenians are going to go to DC next saying, now that you call this a genocide, here's what comes next. So then they're going to be pushing to support a certain amount of, you know, because they are NATO ally all this stuff and one be pretty.

The next two, three, four, five years is going to be very, very strong negotiations and I don't know how it's going to end. I don't know how it's going to end. I don't know how it's going to end. Why did Biden do this? What were her incentives and motivation for doing this, especially within his first 100 days? He had to know he was gonna face backlash. He had to have counsel that say,

look, if you do this, especially within your first 100 days, you're gonna get pushed back by Erdogan. If there are NATO ally, why did he do this? Yeah, I mean, first of all, who does this help? Republicans are Democrats. Process it that way. You already know the answer, because I was expecting too much. Obviously it helps.

Who does this help? He's not going to do this that hurt Democrats. Does this help? Democrats are Republicans. Who does it help? You say Democrats. Okay, tell me why. Well, I don't think Biden is going to do anything to help Republicans.

Okay, but I mean, I don't know, you probably have a different. You ready for this? No one's talking about this part here. Here's what here's what it is. Are there more Turkish Americans or Armenian Americans? Hello, more Turkish way more Turkish Americans. Okay, it's about 5x the number. Some say it's three some say it's seven. Let's say it's 5x more. How many Turkish Americans are offended? I would assume a good amount. Right.

He just lost them,000 Turkish votes. Turks now may sit there and say, it was a Democrat who passed the Armenian genocide. Armenians are going to say, what? It was a Democrat who passed the Armenian genocide. So Armenians are going to vote even. Some are going to flip and they're going to go from Republican Democrat and they're going to say, what? See? Here's why I'm going to vote for some are going to flip and they're going to go from Republican Democrat and they can say what? See, here's why I'm going to vote for who?

Bye. Because you know, our meeting grandmas mothers are going to say, the Republicans could never do this at Democrats. So that's the part, right? And Turkish are going to say, I told you Republicans were on our side. That like that, that's kind of how these stuff is going to be because most people are not following politics. It's just elementary, right? So in a way voting wise, the Turkish are offended. So they're gonna go one side.

This is not an Armenian message, I'm just giving you a logical mathematical, one audience, a synchrony America that isn't. So my question was, why would Biden do it? Is it a misstep? I don't know if it was a misstep, but he must have said, look, I got 100 days to get this done.

I'm rolling out COVID, I'm doing immigration reform. I gotta do everything with the board. We got 15 million. Typically, days to get this done. I'm rolling out COVID. I'm doing immigration reform. I got to do everything with the board. We got 15 million. We got to get this money in just one. Here's how typically it could be. It could be as simple as, hey, you want me to do this? Like, hey, Bezos, why is it the day before him voting

for Union Bezos goes out there and says, I support a tax increase. And then the next union didn't work on the state of Georgia. Why? Maybe something was happening there. I don't know. Maybe somebody agreed to do three other favors for him, but the one

favorite he has to give him a return is to make sure they are meaning you don't know what's going on behind closed doors. There's 50 different things on the table to negotiate. You give me this, I give you this. It's like exchanging cards and monopoly. You give me electric. I'll give you utilities. I'll give you railway. I'll give you this Atlantic you give me boardwalk for these three prep I'll give you Illinois. There's 50 pieces behind closed doors that are being negotiated right now

You just don't know what those negotiations are sound like it's public So this may have been one of those things in there that he just had to go out there make announcement of we will never know Do you think? This might just be me being naive or just me being a nice little so you think that he actually did it because it was just the right no i don't think so it was it happened i don't think a million people were murdered as a genocide it was a massacred i think so and i have very strong opinions i think it's the right thing i don't think he has no i don't think so because i think obama would

would have done it i think obama is a nice guy i don't think so because I think Obama would have done it. I think Obama is a nice guy. I don't think so because I think Bush would have done it. He's a pretty nice guy. I don't think it's that factor. I just think there's other things we don't know about and maybe we'll never know about until somebody writes about it in their book like a Jim Baker that will read about 20-30 years from now. Just like the movie Argo came out when, 30 years after what happened at the event.

You can't do the movie because the eye rules were 30 years. So certain things we're not going to know for I think it's 30 years. Certain things we're not going to know for a long time. As an Armenian. You're very happy for it. You at least thank for that. Yeah. 100. I made a video about it. It's not about if I'm thankful. I applauded him for making this decision and I said thank you. I think it's a great thing that took place. Just to say no to reparations. 1.3 billion was paid from America to Native American tribes between 1946 and 1978. 1.6 billion paid to Japanese from America, 1988. There you go. But over 90 billion was paid to Germany and distribute over $91.9 billion

to the Jewish victims. Okay. But this is actually extrapolate that. Courts.com. But that's a response to Erdogan, what he just said. So what Erdogan's saying, the fact that we did pay reparations. So yes, we didn't. We claimed that we addressed it and were paying for it. A lot of these casinos that are on their land, you have to pay them. By the way, our Pocahontas, what's her name?

Elizabeth Warren was able to get college scholarship because she said she's what? Native American. Native American, which she she said she's what Native American Native American which she's one one thousand Native American so which means a lot of our colleges and scholarships support Native Americans right America's done that to support them because they know They band up to what they did right? Okay, great. So now Erdogan since you're misstep somebody in politics needs to go out Don't tweet out and give these stats to say hey Here's what really happened. So next time you make a claim like that to your people, make sure you know the date on what America did

to support them. They screwed up and they came back and said, we're sorry, here's what we're doing to make up for. Whether that's acceptable or not. That time it was acceptable. You're saying because you use that example about Native America. Exactly.

Reparations come. In these two edas words for saying something like that. Yes, that's exactly, now watch this. Let me show you something here Kai pull up pull up what happened to who's So the census came out with some numbers every time census comes out You also see what states won what states lost okay the US census hands more house seats to Republican Strongholds Texas and Florida if you go a little bit higher go a little bit higher the number came out

We have now 331 million 449,281, according to Census Bureau, 7.4% increase over 2010, representing the second lowest growth of any decade in history, second lowest growth in any history, which means we're not making as many babies, which means not a lot of people are doing three, four, five babies, a lot of people are doing one, or two babies or two cats. Who knows, right?

But if you go a little higher with the 435 seats, we have in the house. If you go a little higher, go a little higher, go a little keep going, keep going. And I'll go let do control plus to make that tighter. So everybody can see it. Go a little bit control plus bring it up. Okay, so check this out.

California lost the seat. Look at that. New York lost the seat. Left, California, left, pan, left, Ohio, left. California lost the seat. Look at that. New York lost the seat left California left pan left Ohio left West Virginia Michigan Illinois Michigan left Illinois left. They lost right now Oregon left picked one up Montana picked one up Montana Colorado picked one up Carolina Pro business picked one up Florida Pro business picked one up Texas really pro business

picked two seats. Ah, what's the difference in orange and blue just to orange is lost orange you lost the seat if you look at the top it says no change lost one seat gain two seats but it's a it says no change, lost one seat, gain two seats, gain one seat. But is the same Republican or Democrat? How are they breaking this down? Well, no, you just know Texas and Florida, you know, being in a that's why they're saying they're they're considering Florida Republican state. You're saying purple, but Reuters is saying Florida is a Republican state. By the way,

FYI, here's something to also be thinking about with this. This measure, you know when people say, well, no one's moving to other states. No one's leaving California. This says they are. 100%? This says people, this, this is the US Census Bureau. So all these nice, all these little by Bloomberg that just came out like last week,

people are actually not leaving the state of California. The Census Bureau, who's that Republican Democrat or independent, is saying they are, okay? Cause the way seats are changed is by who's losing people to the other state. If Texas got two seats, people are moving to Texas. We're about to be moved. I mean, P.B.D., I mean, this is not a small loss to us. No, it's not.

It's such a population decrease that you're actually gaining a seat to represent that population move to another. Yeah, there's no question about that. There's no question about that. that you're actually gaining a seat to represent that population move to another. To another question about that. There's no question about that. And by the way, yesterday when you look at Biden's speech, did you guys see Biden's speech yesterday? Did you kind of go through a little bit of highlights?

What'd you think about it? From Biden's speech he gave yesterday. State of the Union. I think you can't help but recognize that, look everyone thought, not even being political here. Everyone thought that Biden was a bumbling fool. He's sleepy Joe and there's no way he could get stuff done. And he's got dementia and he put them in the old age home.

And a lot of people underestimated him. He beat Trump. And now, who is he being compared to? There's one comparison that he keeps. Jimmy Carter. No, what do you mean Jimmy Carter? Don't say FDR he keeps being compared to FDR on the New Deal whether Whether you agree with that or not or for overspending. Yeah, he is you're right. Okay is for not not not not he's being compared to FDR for overspending Okay, yeah, the New Deal. Yeah, the new deal. Chai has increased ever since World War II and we didn't have a war, but it's that we did kind of have a war You said he said specifically we were a nation in crisis

We have the worst pandemic in a century. I'm using his words B.D. Can I use can I quote the president fear mongering non-stop? This is true. It's the worst pandemic in a century. It's the worst economic crisis, since the Depression. And quote unquote, I don't know about this one. It's the worst attack on democracy, since the Civil War. All I'm saying is he is being compared to FDR

because he's basically rolling out the 2020 version of the New Deal. Whether you agree with the New deal comparisons or not, that is the comparison he's getting. Is it fair or unfair? I don't know. What do you think? You know, when you're looking at it, you have too much vanilla ice cream. Did you wake up to vanilla ice cream? So, my apologies. I will never say that again. Go ahead. I forget the comparison. The first thing I thought when I was watching the Myelite Biden speech, I was thinking about it being an Oprah show.

You get a car, you get a car, you get a car, you get this, you get that, and one side of the aisle, ah, standing ovation, the other side of the aisle, sit down, nothing being said. Check in, check in their Facebook. Check on your seat for a free book, because everything's free on the go, man, everything we're gonna be providing for you this,

that's raised $15 free college All these different things. That's the way I felt overall. I was looking for I was actually looking for some meat I was actually looking for something that would be helpful in my current situations the first generation Entrepreneur immigrants cash flow millionaire, etc. etc. But I was looking for something that way I couldn't actually find useful, didn't really find it. But back to our early conversations about taxes, et cetera, I think I played on it. I think one thing that I'm learning, learning,

like we talked about improving, learning, growing, is that I think Biden's heart is in the right place. I just don't know if his math is in the right place. And I know you're a big math guy. And what's the famous quote, if you're young and you don't, and you're not a Democrat, you have no heart. If you're older and you don't,

and you're not a Republican, you have no head. You have a brain. So I'd like to think that I'm someone who's got a heart and is starting to use their brain a little bit more, you know, all right, so I Look, I think there's it's not a zero sum game. I think there's parts of Biden's Proposals because keep in mind these are proposals. They're not executive actions. There's gonna be votes on this Are I do agree with and there's some that are hard to pal it, especially with the higher taxes and everything that.

But I did want to draw some analogies and comparisons. There are certain things that he's used that they reminded me of Trump by American. American first, right? Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs. Drug prices are too damn high. China, you know, what he said, I believe in competition. We'll compete with China. We don't necessarily need to have conflict, but we can't compete.

So there were parts of it that I actually were reminiscent of Trump. The difference is he's, when he talks, he's a little more palatable to most people according to approval ratings. But then there's things that I just don't agree with. For instance, the $15 federal minimum age, I don't agree with it. I don't necessarily agree with, like we talked about taxing corporations higher So what did you agree with yesterday? With Biden. Yeah, I agree with the jobs jobs jobs jobs especially with the climate and electric

What did he mean by jobs jobs jobs jobs jobs jobs jobs? He said quote unquote 90% of jobs that he's creating won't require a college degree 75% of jobs that he's creating won't require a college degree, 75% of... Associate's degree. Exactly. So again, I do believe his heart is in the right place. But do you know what that means, dude? Do you know interpretation of jobs, jobs, jobs? You know what he's saying. Tell me. What he's saying is the government's going to create those jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs. What he's saying is give us the money, we'll create the jobs. Don't trust the entrepreneurs, they don't know how to create jobs. That's interpretation. The interpretation to me is $1.9 trillion for COVID. We already spent, we have to pay for it.

$2.65 trillion is the infrastructure. Some say $2.32, some say $2.65. Let's just say it's a $2.32.5 trillion infrastructure. $1.8 trillion family's plan. It's about a $6.35, $ infrastructure. 1.8 trillion dollar family's plan. It's about a 6.35, 6 to 6.35 trillion dollar infrastructure we're gonna talk about, right? How you gonna make that money back?

Where from? Where from are you gonna collect all these tax in a rich? Where? Your tax is, you're gonna tax, you think the rich have $6.35 trillion to pay taxes? Even if you tax them 100%, even if you taxed all the rich people in America 100%. You still would, if you took everything

the rich people have, you still don't have to, don't have the money to pay for that. So how are you gonna pay for it? I'm talking, you go take all the money away from Bezos, take all the money away from Gates, take all the money away Zuck, take all the money away from Musk, take all the money away from the Ellison,

take everybody's money What you still cannot pay for this 6.35 trillion? How are you planning on paying for that's why his math is not in the right place But what I'm asking you is what did you agree with so maybe what you're saying? Excuse me. Maybe what you're saying is you agree with doing something to improve education fine Maybe you're saying let's do something to create jobs fine to improve education. Fine. Maybe you're saying let's do something to create jobs. Fine. Maybe you're saying let's do something to advance the economy. Fine. But you don't agree with that being done by the government rather than free enterprise because historically who has been better at creating jobs? Historically. No one compares. No one compares. No one compares.

Historically who has provided better customer service. Are you free enterprise jobs or government jobs? Not the V. You show. Not the frankly, the V. Not the VA historically who historically cares about hitting bedlines. Entrepreneurs or free enterprise, private or more the government. I'm with you on this. But with, but what I'm going with you is the message can sound very good, but it's crypt cryptic if you don't pay attention to it it can sound very good i can get up there say i love you guys so much and all this up but it's cryptic it's not necessarily the right thing the right approach to take to

help advance the economy everybody said it's been a crisis it's been a crisis you keep saying it's a crisis okay let's say it is a crisis for whom? Who has had been a crisis for? Don't say it's a crisis. Who has had been a crisis for? Specifically, the working poor, the people who have to actually show up or be a job for who gives them a job.

Corporations. What kind of, what kind of, the working poor work for who? Small business, small business. Small business. Small business. Small business. Small business. Small business. Small business. corporations who what kind of what kind the working poor work for who small business 65% of jobs in America give or take okay, they some say 49% some say 65% More than half the jobs in America that people have their work for small businesses So who for whom did the crisis affect the most small businesses? Yeah, why are you hurting them? Yeah?

You're hurting them the most So unless if you're gonna give give 100% of people a government job, which that's a communist regime, the only place where 100% of people work for the government is under a communist regime. In a government where 90% of people are working for free enterprise, that's a free enterprise free market, capital, and type of regime, right? Will you go out there and compete? So you heard restaurants, you heard small businesses. They were the ones that took the biggest hit with the crisis and now you're hurting even more.

Again, remember corporations don't pay more taxes. They simply pass that down to the people that are working for them, that they can no longer afford to pay or they raise a price in what they're selling. The cost match. Yeah, he even said a comment about unions created middle America in America. Yeah, I saw that. What the? He said Wall Street didn't build America. You knew middle class did and the union built the middle class. What? Go ahead.

The only thing I really agreed with is him because I'm a big first two guy. He says, Matt and Speaker, Matt and Vice President, no president ever said those words at the point. I'm a big first that was pretty cool what a great reality you're first to do something yeah no first to have it a woman women vice president and madden first thing he said yeah those are very

cool thing uh... you know what when i'm thinking about uh... you know all the things that out for free out for free out for you know you know i i was on Fox talking about free college, the American college act. And how much we value things that we pay for versus things that we get for free. For example, I come down to Florida,

I got a rental car. You think I'm taking care of this rental car? I mean, of course, because I don't want to have a ding or anything like that. I got to return it with full of gas. But before I turn it in, I'm not trying to throw it all the trash that I accumulated in this car. I'm not trying to vacuum it. I'm not trying to change the oil and wash it before I turn it in, I'm not trying to throw it all the trash that you're doing in this car. I'm not trying to vacuum it. I'm not trying to change the oil and wash it before I turn it around.

So in other words, what I'm saying is we don't value things that we don't own. We don't value things that we don't pay a price for. There's no skin in the game. And we're trying to give these kids, you know, free, you know, junior college for two years, you know, for those making less than $110,000 a year. You know, in the military, we call that you got making less than $110,000 a year. You know, in the military, we call that, you gotta serve our country first, and then we'll give you free college. Yeah.

You wanna serve our country for four years? Great, we'll give you $20,000, $50,000 for college. And guess what, those that do that, they tend to value that education a whole lot more than people that tend to get it for free. And so when trying to give away all these different free things, you know, I wonder what the proper stewardship or appreciation of that

for our country would be. And my social experiment has been, imagine if we had our kids graduating high school, imagine a weird social experiment we say, listen, if you want some free stuff, consider working for the government for a minimum wage, consider working for this organization, Peace Corps, American Biopass Society,

some form a major nonprofit, American Biopassist Society, some form, big major, non-profit, American Cancer Society, and then we'll consider giving you free college. But until then, no, nothing for free. Yeah, I mean, it was the greatest free handout speech of all time. If you want to wear it for me, that's what it is. It was the greatest handout speech of all time. That's just what you got to call it.

Everything was given away, and people who want that, they loved it, people who want to be left alone and go out there and work. Don't like that. It's given away and people who want that, they loved it, people who want to be left alone and go out there and work. Don't like that, it's that simple of a messaging and those who work for the government who want to get reelected or sitting there saying, oh my gosh, we got people convinced they need us. That means I'm gonna get reelected

next four years to be whatever my job is. Anyways, I wish we had another hour to go through this because we have a lot more topics to cover. Maybe we'll do it on Thursday, today is Thursday. Today is Thursday. Thursday is Thursday. Thursday. Thursday. Okay. Yeah. You got to close out tomorrow, P.V.D. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yeah.

You're right. Yes, today what you were saying. It doesn't feel like a Thursday. Today is such a weird day. Anyways, have a great everybody. People are just starting to come out right now because of timing that we have. Uh, uh, uh, which we had more time with you. We will do it again next Tuesday. Again, uh, if you haven't subscribed to do so, as we get this channel to get bigger, we're gonna do more. I'll go from two to three times, eventually four or five times,

but this is not big enough of a platform yet for us to do five times a week. The argument doesn't yet make sense for me to go out there and do this five times a week. I'd love to. We're not there yet. If you like our content, subscribe to the channel and press that thumbs up button.
