Starting point is 00:02:09 from Midas contributors. New episodes of The Mighty are released every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. And of course, you can catch the podcast I do with my brothers right here with new episodes on Tuesday and Friday. On today's Mighty, we hear from Midas contributor Coach D. Coach D responds to a speech given by Herschel Walker on climate change, or what Herschel Walker believes issues surrounding climate change are. Something about how American and Chinese air switch places? Who the heck knows?
Starting point is 00:02:34 First, we'll play the clip of Herschel, and then Coach D's response. Our good air decided to flow over to China, bad air. So when China gets our good air, their bad air gotta move. Oh, Herschel. Poor Herschel. You guys remember back in like third grade, we'd be doing work, right? We're learning our, how to read. We're doing some numbers, maybe some addition and subtraction. There was always that one kid who just like literally like would never do anything. And so the teacher would give them a coloring page. So we'd all be doing work, learning, and this kid
Starting point is 00:03:17 would get this coloring page. And we were all kind of jealous because like we wanted a coloring page too. But we also have been told by our parents, like you got to do your work in school if you want to succeed in life and stuff like that, you know. But it was like that kid got the coloring page the whole time. And we'd be like, yeah, whatever, you know. Well, it's like the Republicans decided that that kid needed to be in office. And I don't mean that kid when he grew up. I mean, Hershel Walker is literally that kid right now. You got to rid them of the pipeline.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Get rid of the pipeline. Get rid of all the energy that starts this downfall. Because we need energy for everything. You all know that? And they would talk about the Green New Deal. You know, climate change. I'm going to help you all with that real
Starting point is 00:04:14 quickly and I'm going to do it in the Wrightsville way so you can understand what I'm saying. We, in America, have some of the cleanest air and cleanest water of anybody in the world. So what we do is we're going to put from the Green New Deal, millions, or billions of dollars cleaning our good air up.
Starting point is 00:04:37 So all of a sudden China and India ain't putting nothing in there cleaning that situation up. So all that bad air is still there. But since we don't control the air, our good air decided to flow over to China, bad air. So when China gets our good air, their bad air got to move. So it moves over to our good air space. And now we got to clean that back up.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Like, what was that? And then and then he says you know he's like we need energy for everything and they're like yeah yeah you're right man you're like he just said something so profound and genius or something literally now in the Republican Party, all you have to do is repeat, not even full platitudes, just buzzwords. You say Green New Deal and they say, yeah, get rid of that. Yeah. You say, you know, don't touch my guns. Yeah. Second Amendment. You know, you say critical race theory. Keep that away from our kids. Don't indoctrinate my kids. Like these people were like sitting there like they're in church listening to a pastor or at a clinic listening to like just some some just some great speaker or something. It was Herschel Walker literally just blabbering about nothing. Our good air, it goes over to China and then their bad air,
Starting point is 00:06:08 it got to move. So it come to us and they're like, yeah, oh, wow. And here's what's going to happen. In the next day or two, they're going to come out and they're going to say he was joking. It was like a comedy skit. He was just being funny. But any of you who have ever listened to Herschel Walker speak, you know this was vintage Herschel Walker. Like this is Herschel Walker on brand. Honestly, the kids that he's neglecting, they're lucky to not have that dude in their life. I mean, this is how desperate the Republicans have gotten that this is the best they can do. And I mean, listen, it's not like Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene. This is on brand for that group. I mean, Herschel Walker would fit right in with them. Hopefully not in office, though. So this is why, people, when I, I mean, I'm dead serious. When I say like,
Starting point is 00:07:07 imagine trying to rationalize with Herschel Walker. That guy is irrational. Imagine trying to have a debate or a logical conversation with him. He lacks logic. Like all we can do, all we have to do is get to the polls in November. Vote these people out. Put people over profit in politics. Let's get ourselves some good leadership because this right here, that's not it. That is not it. Goodness.
