The Eric Metaxas Show
A highlight from Harry Scherer
"Welcome to the Eric Metaxas Show. I shouldn't tell you this, but Eric hired someone who sounds just like him to host today's show. But since I'm the announcer, they told me, so I'm telling you, don't be fooled. The real Eric's in jail. Hey folks, welcome to Monday. This is the beginning of the week for me, and probably for most of you. Traditionally, Monday is seen as the beginning of the week. Chris Himes, how about for you? Will you consider this beginning of the week? It is. Normally it is. All right, so we're together on that. It's the beginning of the week. Now, I tell my audience, coming up in this hour, we're going to be talking to a young man named Harry Shearer, not to be confused with the man who does the voice of Montgomery Burns on The Simpsons. No, it's a different Harry Shearer. This is someone he's written for the American Conservative. He's written a long article on RFK Jr. Very interesting. We're going to explore that with him in this hour, RFK Jr. In hour two, I believe we're going to be speaking about men's fashion and why it's not just about fashion. It actually has meaning. How we dress, how we present ourselves meaning. has So get ready for that. Chris, I got to tell you, this weekend I was in a church, well, actually yesterday, I was in a church in Ben Salem, Pennsylvania. Ben Salem, Pennsylvania. It's been an hour and 40 minutes from New York. We drove out there, drove back. It's called Christian Life Church, Pastor Mike English. What a great church. I go to these places, I get so encouraged that there are churches that they get it. They are doing what I write about in my book, Letter to the American Church. They're living it out. They're not hiding in the shadows saying we don't want to be controversial. They are willing to simply speak the truth and they are blessing their congregations. I'm sure you can see my sermon there online, but it's Christian Life Church in Ben Salem, Pennsylvania. Just a privilege for me to be with those folks, to meet Pastor Mike and his wife, Christie, their son, Elijah. Just encouraging to me to meet people like this in communities like this, full of people of faith in action, not just faith in your head, which is fake faith, but faith that lives itself out, lives out, lives in action. Just beautiful. Anyway, okay, so speaking of faith in action, we want to continue to ask you to step up with Food for the Poor. Food for the Poor feeds people in our hemisphere who are suffering in Latin American countries, but as we begin the week in this country, many of you know that tropical storms and flooding are hitting the Baja Peninsula in California. Hurricane Hillary or tropical storm, whatever it was, Hillary hit landfall and deleted 30 ,000 emails. Isn't that unbelievable? Sorry, that was a joke. That was a cheap joke. That was a good one. It was a cheap joke that I stole from the Babylon Bee. But seriously, you know, when storms hit, the destruction is horrifying, and this is the first tropical storm, this is amazing, to hit Southern California in 84 years, right? Now, I want to say that meanwhile, forecasters are warning that major Atlantic hurricanes, Atlantic, are likely very soon. We have the hurricane season coming up in the Atlantic, and the reason I'm bringing this up right now is that there are 17 countries served by our friends at Food for the Poor, which is a Christian nonprofit relief agency, and this month they're focusing on emergency relief supplies because they know that hurricane season is upon us and it's going to strike many of these countries in these communities very, very hard, and they want to be prepared.

The Hugh Hewitt Show: Highly Concentrated
A highlight from Chairman Gallagher on What Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum Should Ask the GOP Candidates About Xi and CCP
"We're proud to announce our brand new ACLJ Life and Liberty Drive. Our legal teams will be focusing on the issues that you, our ACLJ members, have told us matter the most to you, life and religious liberty. Join the ACLJ in the fight to keep America free.

Tomorrow night, eight Republicans will meet on the stage in Milwaukee for a debate. I am certain that China will come up the Chinese Communist Party, but I'm not sure how. Brett Baer, of course, coming up later in the program. Martha McCollum, two superb professionals, the equal of anyone else in our business, will be asking the question. But I thought I would talk it through with the chairman of the House Select Committee on Engagement with the Chinese Communist Party. Mike Gallagher, congressman. Good morning. Great to have you. Thank you for joining me. It is great to be with you, Hugh. We're going to come back around to this kind of war, which I finished last night on the recommendation of you. It is a remarkable book. And I had no idea how awful the chai comms were to our American prisoners. I just I didn't know. Did you know that before? Did the Marines teach you that when you were in the Marines? No, there's there's two things that I think, well, a lot of actually our modern thinking about how to prepare people for when they get captured. Think survival of Asian resistance and escape school, which I attended when I was in the Marine Corps actually comes out of the experience of the Korean War, particularly some politically sensitive moments when a few American captives refused actually to go home. There was, of course, this controversy during that time period post Korean War in the 50s about this idea of brainwashing. This is prominently expressed in the fictional book The Manchurian Candidate, which became a major American movie. But a lot of our thinking about how to better prepare pilots in particular because they get shot down for resisting in captivity actually comes out of that period. Well, a couple of takeaways I'll never forget. There are no Turks died in the camps. The Turks are the toughest people in the world, and none of them died in the Chinese Communist Party camps. And the Americans didn't eat everything they could eat because they didn't like it and they died of starvation. But the fact that the Chinese communists treated our men that way is a tell because they've reverted to this mode. They were the hardcore Maoist, Leninist mode in 1950 through 1953, and they've reverted. And that's what I want to talk to you about. I want to ask you at length. We got a lot of time this morning and thank you for the time. If you were advising Brett and Martha based upon your six months, what would you tell them are the major takeaways that you've learned as the chairman of the Select Committee? And how would you suggest they be turned into a question? Take your time, because that's a big that's a big question. What have you learned thus far in six months? And how would you convert that into questions for our candidates? Well, I think the overall thing to realize for these candidates and this advice is worth what they're paying me for it is that there is, in my opinion, something called the commander in chief test. It's not you know, you're not graded A through F. I think it's a pass fail endeavor, but it is absolutely critical. Put differently, I'm not myopic enough to believe that foreign policy or a particular issue of foreign policy is going to win the candidate candidate the election, but it could very well lose them the election. The final thing to say about the assumptions going into this when it comes to foreign policy is that the conventional wisdom is that it doesn't really matter from a political electoral perspective. And there's a lot of social science to support that. I just would say it doesn't matter until it does. It doesn't matter until things go haywire on the world stage and suddenly voters are looking to a prospective commander in chief to communicate, if nothing else, a sense of safety that I have the temperament and the plan to keep America safe in a very dangerous world, which leads, I think, to the answer your question more than anything else. I think these candidates need to communicate that they have a clear understanding of the threat we face in the Chinese Communist Party, the scale and scope of this threat. Why this isn't just a matter of some obscure territorial disputes in the South China Sea. This is indeed a global competition. The CCP has global ambitions. What happens in Xinjiang, what happens in Beijing is not going to stay there. They are intent on exporting their model of total techno totalitarian control, which leads to the second point that you need to find a way to contrast that threat to enduring the and inherently superior American values. And I do believe that this is a contest between two fundamentally incompatible systems of government. And it's unlike anything we've seen since, of course, the old Cold War. So communicating the stakes, communicating who we're dealing with in the nature of a Marxist Leninist regime that will stop at nothing to ensure that they survive at the expense of their own people. And that is the enemy of freedom around the world is the most important thing. In fact, I would say even more important than any particular policy position is just communicating that understanding of the threat and the prioritization of the threat, a recognition that as president, the most important issue that you will be dealing with as commander in chief is how to deter a war with the CCP in the short term and win a new Cold War with the CCP over the long term. So let's put that in the form of a question for Brett and Martha, because I think you're right, I am looking at, of course, I've always looked at every one of these debates as an audition to be commander in chief. Eventually, there comes a choice with the Democrat. But right now, when I vote in the Virginia primary, I will vote based on who will be the best commander in chief. And because that's what matter. 9 -11 matters. What is the W do on 9 -11 that matters? What does W do? The Afghanistan and Iraq. What does anyone do on any moment of crisis? What do they do in the situation room? Figuring out how to elicit that about China is a difficult thing. So you've been doing nothing but this for six months. And by the way, recap for our audience and Pittsburgh Steeler fans what you have been doing for six months, because they may never have heard of the select committee. This might be the first day they're listening to the audience. No acronyms or five dollars in the tip jar for food for the poor. Well, the speaker of the House created the select committee on the CCP to do two things. One is to communicate why this matters, why anybody in northeast Wisconsin or Pittsburgh or Ohio should care about the threat posed by the CCP, to shine a light on all the things that they're doing, whether it's threatening to invade Taiwan, whether it's establishing illegal police stations on American soil, whether it's infiltrating American universities or attempting to build spy bases in our near abroad, to explain why it matters and why your average American should care about it. The second thing is to identify policies and pieces of legislation that can pass even in divided government. In the 118th Congress, what is the center of gravity in terms of steps that we can take in order to put ourselves on a better position to beat the CCP in this short and long term competition? So that's what we've been doing. We've broken it down, essentially, as though this isn't a perfect organization into three main lines of effort. And I do think this reflects our overall lines of effort, our grand strategy against China basically has three main components. One is military competition. What are the things we need to do to deter a war over Taiwan in the near term, as well as ensure that we maintain our dominant military position over the long term? The second is what I call economic statecraft. How do we selectively decouple from China so they don't have a coercive leverage over us so they can't threaten, for example, to cut off the export of advanced pharmaceutical ingredients in order to bring us to our knees? And then the third line of effort is what I call ideological warfare or ideological competition, which is not only how do we rediscover a language for talking about American values and incorporate values and human rights back into American grand strategy, but also how do we better defend our institutions from Chinese Communist Party subversion, from something called United Front Work, from traditional espionage, things like that. So we aren't corrupted and divided from within, which is what the Chinese Communist Party is trying to do. Wang Huning, who's Xi Jinping's top lieutenant in the 90s, wrote a book called America Against America, in which he talks about Americans as greedy, factional. And that that title, America against America, I think reflects their overall strategy, which is to divide Americans against Americans and thereby make it impossible for us to compete. So we've been developing policy recommendations along each of those lines. We've put out two reports, one on military competition, one related to human rights. And we're going to be putting out further reports. So, you know, I think those are useful starting points for for candidates who want to prepare for a debate in terms of where's Congress at on this issue? Where's the bipartisan center of gravity? Where can you potentially build on some of our work? But that's what we've been doing for six months. It's trying to understand and explain the threat and then identify policy solutions that help us to combat that threat. How would you put that in the form of a question by Brett or Martha? Well, there's the overall prioritization question, you know, what is the biggest threat to American national security, which is a bit boring, but no, it's not that's not boring. That that is that is the question, isn't it? Shouldn't that just be asked? What is the number one threat to American national security and why? Shouldn't that be it? Yeah, I think that that's table stakes, right? That's a good diagnostic question. And then it also allows the candidates, if they want to use their full time and I forget how much time they get to really articulate the key distinction between them and the Biden administration, because if you read the Biden administration's national security strategy that they talk about China as a pacing threat, although I'm hearing now that the Pentagon is saying don't say pacing threat, say pacing challenge or competitor, because we obviously don't want to provoke the CCP for whatever reason. I've described this as kind of like a Voldemort phenomenon. There's this belief that the more more we say things like New Cold War or say that the CCP is doing bad things, that it will somehow become more true, which I think is absurd. I'll be right back. Sherman Gallagher is going to stay with me through the break and then we're going to bring him back and then we're going to do that again. And we're going to talk to him for 15 minutes this morning about this. I can't believe I'm doing that. 15 minutes with Mike Gallagher coming right at you, America. Stay tuned. I'm back now with Chairman Mike Gallagher. This is the segment between the radio segments, so you don't get to hear this unless you're watching it on YouTube or on the on the television station. Chairman, in terms of what level should we expect of our candidates knowledge? I see your Green Bay Packers thing yet. Do you know the Browns cleared 38 million in cap yesterday by restructuring Joel Bentonio and Miles Garrett's contract? We have no we have the most cap space in the NFL. We are the team to beat. We will see you. I actually I don't think you're making it to the Super Bowl this year. We are going to be in the Super Bowl this year and you are not ready for this. I'm glad this isn't on the air because this is a serious conversation. But you had to do that little thing. And I'll I'll just go get my brown sweater and just put it on during this segment like that. I'm going to wear this all the time now on the air because we're going to the Super Bowl. Chairman, do you know that we cleared Miles Garrett contract yesterday? You know what we do? Do you follow sports at all or do you just do ChaiCom stuff? I don't follow Brown's contract minutia. I'll confess. I'll confess that, though. I was I was yesterday. Someone said that I had the potential to coach for the Browns after I helped them with a constituent case issue, to which I said I would never coach for the Browns on an Intel. All right. Let me get serious again. I'm going to try to go off the off the rail. We'll get back on the rails. How many times have you guys held public hearings? Oh, gosh, I think 10 at this point, approximately 10. You had at least one set of war games. You have more war games coming. We do. We have we have at least one more coming up that's going to be more focused on economic and supply chain issues. OK. Do you think the candidates know anything about that? I really do want to try and use today to focus their attention on China. Do you think they know anything about what the select committee has been doing? Have you been approached by any of them? I think some do. It's part of the reason I wrote an op ed on this that appeared today in The Wall Street Journal just came out was an effort, maybe shamelessly, to draw attention to some of the things we're doing, because I think it creates some unique opportunities. I mean, to me, you know, the most and this reflects my bias in thinking that hard power is the most important variable on the world stage. I think a candidate who can articulate what we need to do to rebuild the military in general, but really the Navy in particular, which is, as you know, Hugh is really struggling right now. It needs to be our priority force in our priority theater. It's not. We're going backwards. There's questions about focus, warfighting prowess. You know, I wrote a report with the help of Admiral Montgomery about the lack of warfighting focus in the surface Navy with Tom Cotton, Dan Crenshaw and others. I mean, I think that's a massive opportunity for a candidate really to take the ball on defense and go a few layers deep beyond just peace through strength, military good, China bad. You go a few layers deep on that and sort of communicate that you have a coherent plan. Doesn't need to be super detailed. Doesn't need to be a 50 page white paper about everything we need to do. But just as an overall strategy for fiction, I'm going to get your comms team in trouble again. I haven't seen this plan that you and Cotton worked on. How can I not have seen this plan? Well, this is a year ago. You got to blame Cotton's comms team for this because he was OK. And usually it's good to blame Tom Cotton. He's on next hour. I'll do that. Is that widely available? Yeah, it's Cotton did it with four of us in the house. It was over a year, a year and a half ago, kind of in response to all of these ship collisions. Some of the reports that we were getting from active duty sailors and just the changes over the years to training in the surface Navy. We did a deep dive drawing on the expertise of Admiral Montgomery and others. I will give him about that in the next hour and I'll get a link and I'll make sure it's posted out to the candidates. Don't go anywhere. I'm coming right back with Chairman Gallagher. Welcome back, America. I'm Hugh Hewitt, Chairman Mike Gallagher of the House Select Committee on Engagement, the Chinese Communist Party returns. We talked during the break and we got off course because we did a little football trash talk. But now we're back on course. Chairman Gallagher, have you read this book? You had Kabul, the untold story of Biden's fiasco and the warriors who fought to the end. It it made me furious. It absolutely made me furious. Have you had a chance to read it yet? No, but my friend Commander Salamander, who's great in his podcast, Midrats, I highly recommend, just did a podcast with with the authors. So I listened to it. It's not the same, but I am now looking forward to reading the actual hard copy. Well, the end of the book, which I don't know of Commander Salamander got to because I didn't get to it and I talked to him for a long time. It's about how the chai comms came in as soon as we left. They have designs on Bagram. They know what the air raids mean. They know what the strategic minerals mean. It's just a great example of what happens when we retreat in the world. In fact, in the in the this kind of war book you had me read, I wrote down some notes. A retreat once started as the most difficult of all human actions to reverse. And they were talking about the retreat of the Norcs at that point. And then we would retreat later when they counterattack with the chai comms. But we retreated from Afghanistan and they have come in. Have you focused yet on what they're doing there? It hasn't been, admittedly, a subject of a hearing. You know, we have experts, you know, regional experts and Afghanistan experts. I think the key thing to bring it back to the the presidential debate, obviously the obvious thing to do is to connect the surrender to terrorists in Afghanistan, our abandonment of our position, our abandonment of billions of dollars worth of military equipment to then the collapse of deterrence in Ukraine and Eastern Europe, because I do believe that our feckless position in Afghanistan sent a clear signal of weakness to Vladimir Putin. And no wonder Vladimir Putin ignored all of our warnings leading up to the invasion on February 24th because we look so weak on the world stage and we allowed terrorists to completely take over the country. And I think also that has had a negative impact on our deterrent posture in in the Indo -Pacific, across the Taiwan Strait. You mentioned critical minerals. I also think this is a huge opportunity for presidential candidates to articulate a plausible path towards reducing our dependency on China for critical mineral processing. They control 90 percent of the processing. Right now, I think our attempts to wean ourselves off of our to to establish some form of semiconductor manufacturing independence are not going to be successful, in part because the Biden administration has placed so many onerous regulations on grants for chips, fabrication facilities. But if a Republican candidate, particularly one with a business background or with a gubernatorial background, came in and said, here's our strategy when it comes to advanced pharmaceutical ingredients, critical minerals and rare earth processing, tie that to a robust domestic economic agenda. That's a massive opportunity for someone trying to pass the commander in chief test, because the reality is we are going to have to reclaim our economic independence from China in key areas. The progressives are experimenting with one way to do it. We need to identify a way that is fundamentally free market, but not but nonetheless achieves the actual goal of reducing our dependency on China. Chairman Gallagher, there's only one veteran on the stage, Ron DeSantis. Mike Pence has got a son and a son in law on active duty. Of course, Nikki Haley's husband is deployed. Those three know about this in terms of of why is China a threat? Is it a fair question to ask? Why is China a threat? What is it that worries you about China? Is that a fair question? If so, how would you answer that or suggest they answer that if you are one of the people on the stage? Well, first of all, I do think DeSantis has been really good on China and probably the best in the field. I was watching the forum that they did in Iowa. I forget what it's called, the Iowa Faith and Family Forum. And he proactively brought up China as an issue and talked about what he's done in Florida to combat the threat, talked about the threat in global terms. And so the most of the discussion focused on Ukraine. And I understand that that's more of a politically divisive issue on the stage. And so there is a you know, I think the moderators will want to identify the differences between the candidate thus far. Governor DeSantis has been talking in clear and unapologetic language about why the CCP is a threat and what he would do to combat it, which is greatly appreciated. More to your point, as a Navy veteran, I think he has a huge opportunity to be the Navy guy, be the guy who's going to rebuild the Navy and put it in a position where it can it can deter Xi Jinping from attempting to achieve his lifelong ambition was to take Taiwan by force. So to answer your question, Vivek just told me last week, we'll give them Taiwan after we achieve semiconductor independence. In other words, Vivek understands Taiwan is important for its semiconductor. Your colleague on the committee, Ro Khanna, tweeted at me last night when I was already offline that that doesn't do the trick. That's not why we're worried about Taiwan going down. Who's right? Well, obviously, our interests in Taiwan extend far beyond semiconductors. Our interests predate Taiwan's emergence as a semiconductor powerhouse. And if the concern from Vivek and I think it is that our dependence on TSMC for semiconductor manufacturing needs to be eliminated, I just would say two things. It's highly unlikely that we're going to achieve semiconductor independence by 2028. TSMC is investing far more money than the CHIPS Act is investing right now. Even under a Republican president, we would struggle to wean ourself off our dependency. But if the CCP had control of Taiwan, they would still be able to hold the rest of the world economically hostage. And that is the issue. Semiconductors or other or some sort of domain of economic competition. If they had Taiwan, they would be able to completely dominate the region through which trillions of dollars of international trade go. The other thing I would say, it's I mean, we got to go to break. I'll come back to go to break. We'll be right back with Chairman Gallagher during the break and then one more segment beyond. Don't go anywhere. America, I'm Hugh Hewitt. Portions of The Hugh Hewitt Show are brought to you by Food for the Poor. So I'm back with Chairman Gallagher, Chairman Vivek's answer to that is I'm going to get India to cooperate. And if Taiwan closes the Taiwan Straits, we're going to close the Malacca Straits. Ro Khanna says that's that's crazy. That doesn't work. I don't know what the answer is, but I know what Vivek has told me. I don't think he agrees with you, but I'll let him speak for himself. I don't want to put words in his mouth that we have to worry that much about the Taiwan Strait. Well, he's obviously very smart. I would say this with Marxist Leninist regimes, their appetites grow with the eating. So I think it would be a mistake to think that if we just surrender Taiwan on a date certain that we wouldn't have to worry about the problem. If they're the dominant regional power, they're one step closer to becoming the dominant global power. And that, I think, is the answer to your earlier question. Why? Why is the CCP a threat? Because they're trying to destroy our geopolitical position. Primarily by convincing us to destroy ourselves, they believe, as we mince words about whether they're a competitor or an adversary, they certainly believe that they're in an existential war with the free world led by America and that China will win, rendering America and our constitutional system of self -government subordinate, humiliated and wholly irrelevant on the world stage. So you can sort of think of it as as an assisted suicide. You know, they're trying to expedite our collapse. They provide the chemicals, fentanyl, the collapse in prosperity. Covid, IP theft, economic warfare and the self -loathing and depression via political interference and information warfare. So I think the the the threat would not stop after Xi Jinping had taken Taiwan. I think it would only expedite and become greater. So if you could read Xi Jinping's mind, what is he thinking about us? What does he want to see happen to us? I think he wants us to look inward and to abandon our position on the world stage and to be consumed with internal political battles. I also think he likes seeing us embrace this almost the CCP's narrative that America is an evil country. America is a neo colonial racist hellscape. I mean, this is CCP propaganda that a lot of Americans have embraced. I think ultimately he wants us to lose faith in ourselves as a force for good in the world. And ultimately, over time, he thinks the rest of the world is going to Finland dies more in the CCP's direction as an alternative model of government and world leadership, in part because America has lost faith in itself. That's why I think primarily the hard power is the most important variable. This is an ideological competition overall. And ignoring the role ideology plays in the competition is a fatal flaw. And so we need to find a way to press the candidates on that as well. You know, the we got two minutes before we come back. The ideological competition is quite simply not discussed. And I don't think our media is familiar with it. They're not stupid. They're ignorant of the ideological. They don't even believe it exists anymore. Chairman, have you run into that? Do your Democratic colleagues believe that there are such things like Leninist and that that the 20th century ideological competition is back with a vengeance? Well, I think for two and a half decades, we tried to take the communist out of Chinese Communist Party, and this belief persists that, well, they're not really communist. They're not really Marxist. They've embraced forms of capitalism and they're they're rational actors. And I think this is a dangerous way of thinking to go down, particularly under Xi Jinping. The party has embraced its Marxist Leninist roots. Xi's spirit animal is, in fact, Stalin. He looks to Stalin for guidance on how to operate. And so a candidate who understands that and can articulate that, I think, has a massive opportunity to distinguish themselves. The Democrats sort of come at the ideological competition through human rights. And there are a lot who genuinely believe in the cause of human rights. And though there are times when we have to prioritize between security concerns and human rights, this is when dealing with China, that's not an issue at all. We're coming right back. Stand by, chairman.

Welcome to another edition of Convo Over Cigars. I just want to be clear, it's 2023, right, because I just watched something that was, it looked like something from the Jim Crow days, if I'm being honest. And I'm sure many people are talking about it. What happened in Montgomery, Alabama looked like a scene from the Jim Crow days. Now, a brawl near the Montgomery Riverfront Park on Saturday evening was captured on video and posted to social media by onlookers and ended up with multiple people in police custody. Just to be clear, this brawl started when a pontoon boat was blocking the dock where a riverboat was trying to park. The pontoon boat owner was asked by an African American man, a dock worker, he looked like security personnel, he was asked to move so that, you know, to allow the riverboat full of passengers to dock. But the white pontoon boat owner, he refused. The pontoon boat owner, a white male, punched the dock worker who was, you know, just basically trying to do his job. He was trying to push the boat out of the way so that this riverboat could dock. Several white people started attacking the black dock worker, and that's when something very occurred. historic A riverboat worker, a young black man, and this was beautiful, I can't lie and I don't advocate violence, but a young African American man dived into the water and swam, you can see it in the video, he swam to help the black security guy that was being viciously attacked by several whites. After the riverboat full of black passengers docked, two of those passengers approached the pontoon boat and started wailing on the white guys that had previously attacked the black dock worker. A full -out brawl erupted on this Montgomery riverboat waterfront, and unfortunately it was kind of a scenario where it was blacks versus whites. Now, many blacks are calling this a revolution. One woman was seen on TikTok saying a prayer to Nat Turner, thanking him for this display of black unity. Comedian Ricky Smiley said he doesn't condone violence at all, but he caught the holy ghost watching those black men rushing to help that black man that was being viciously attacked by the angry mob of whites. The most beautiful part of this video is the young black man swimming in the waters of the Montgomery, Alabama, you know, water, you know, riverboat park. He was jumped, he jumped into the waters off of the riverboat just so he could come help his fellow black man who was being attacked by some people that refused to follow the rules. I thought that was beautiful, seeing that brother do that. It looked like something from, like, you know, a change is going to come, we're going to overcome. It looked historic. I've never seen a young black man jump into the water and swim, you know, to go help, to go assist a black man who was being attacked. That was beautiful. And this was right off the heels of the Donald Trump speech that was in Montgomery. That is what I'm hearing. Those black men seemed fed up, and every punch and strike could be seen in this video, which has gone viral. Now, several arrests have been made, but many felt these people got exactly what they deserved for ganging up on the black man who was just trying to do his job. You guys have been locked in to another edition of Convo Over Cigars. I'm your host, Derrick Andre Flemming. Happy Monday, guys.

The Eric Metaxas Show
A highlight from Ch Ahn (Encore)
"Welcome to the Eric Metaxas show. They say it's a thin line between love and hate. But we're working every day to thicken that line, or at least make it a double or triple line. But now here's your line jumping host, Eric Metaxas. I have a very special guest today. As you know, on Miracle Mondays, we try to have someone on who believes in miracles, who's maybe experienced some miracles, whose life itself is a miracle. Today, I am thrilled to have in the studio with me, all the way from Pasadena, California, Che Ahn. How do I describe Che Ahn? He's the founder and president of Harvest International Ministry, a worldwide apostolic network of churches in over 60 nations. My goodness, he's also the international chancellor of Wagner University. He's received his master's and doctorate in ministry from Fuller Theological Seminary. He's written many books. He's been married for 40 years to his wife, Sue. They have four adult children, six grandchildren. I think that says it all. Che Ahn, welcome to the program. Well, thank you. What an honor to be on your show. Listen, it's my honor to have you. I've known you for many, many years. You haven't known of me, but I've known of your ministries. What was the one with fire in the title? I can't remember. It was Teen Mania, or what was it? It was something you did here in New York, like 12 or 13 years ago. Well, we did the Call New York. That's what it was. The Call New York. It was the Call New York. Yeah, 2001. That's, you know what? 2001? Yeah, after 9 -11. That is 18 years ago. Yeah, and it's interesting because initially when we came to mobilize the pastors, actually they were very, very rude. They said, we don't need the Call to come in. And then after 9 -11 hit, they said, we need to gather together and have a solemn assembly. We need to come together and repent of our sins. And before we knew it, over 100 ,000 people showed up in Flushing Meadow. The fact that that is 18 years ago completely blows my mind. Yeah, it's been a long time. Because I spoke briefly, I was on the stage, and I remember being amazed at the crowd. It was a huge crowd. Right. And I grew up in Flushing Meadow. I mean, I grew up a couple of miles from there, and we would, as a kid growing up in Queens, New York, I would hang out there. And so to see thousands and thousands of people, then that's when I met you. But for folks who know nothing about you, what is your story? How long have you been, by the way, in Pasadena? Well, I moved in 1984, but I grew up in Washington, D .C., in Montgomery County, Maryland. So this is out of D .C. My father was the first Korean Southern Baptist pastor in North America, so he immigrated in 1958. From Korea. From Korea, South Korea. There was no Korean Southern Baptist church in the United States. He was the first one, and so they wanted him at the nation's capital. There was a handful of Korean students who were studying at Georgetown, George Washington, Catholic University, to help rebuild Korea after the Korean War, which ended in 1953. Actually, it was a ceasefire that took place. And so they wanted the Korean government, wanted the top students to learn public policy, how to do government, and to rebuild Korea. And so there were around 200 students in Washington, D .C., but they wanted a Baptist pastor. There was a Presbyterian church, there was a Methodist, but not a Southern Baptist. And it was like my dad won the lotto. He applied and got the job because it was so hard to immigrate. I mean, it's hard now, but back in 1958 to immigrate to the United States, it was almost impossible because the U .S. government realized there was no Korean Southern Baptist church. So you were born here? No, here's the problem. We had a visa problem. So my sister, my mother, and I, we were separated from my dad for three years. And so finally, after three years, during my formative year or so, almost when I was five, then we got the visa to come to the United States. And so, to say the least, when I saw my dad, I couldn't recognize him because, you know, I was just two years old when he left. People have no idea what others go through. I mean, when you describe that and how many people want to come to America. But I mean, the idea that your father is a Southern Baptist preacher in America. Well, he passed away, but he was a pioneer. No, no, I mean, but in those days that he's from Korea. Right. And so you were raised in the faith, in the Christian faith. Well, I was, but I rejected Christianity very early on because of two things, you know. There was no kids in my Sunday school. It was just students, college students. And so there was no families. There was no other kids my age. And then I went to an elementary school, Forest Grove Elementary School. And my sister and I were the only two people of color in an all -white elementary school. And now, if you go to that school, it's very, very diverse. But back in those days, it wasn't until the fifth grade I remember someone of color coming in. And so there were no other Asians, no African -Americans, no Hispanic. And so we stood out. And so I got in fights all the time because people were calling me chink, even though I'm not Chinese. That's a drug term for Chinese and Jap, even though I wasn't Japanese. You know, by the way, I have a little joke. I say you could tell the difference between a Chinese, Japanese, and a Korean. If you see a rich -looking Asian, they're Chinese. A smart -looking Asian, they're Japanese. But if you see a handsome -looking Asian, he's Korean. Ha! Ha! Take that. Yeah, so anyway, but I got in fights all the time. And I wanted to be so accepted. Plus, my parents were working day and night just to survive in America. And so as a result of that, my craving for acceptance and to be popular led me into the whole hippie drug culture of the late 60s and early 70s. I joke I may have been the first Korean hippie in North America because I never met anyone. I stopped cutting my hair for three and a half years. And my dad is freaking out. He doesn't know what's going on. And by the time I'm 15, I'm doing everything under the sun. Heavy drug user, cocaine, heroin, LSD. And then by the time I'm 17, I'm pushing drugs to support my habit. And so I was totally out of control. But one thing my parents did was pray for me. And I really want to encourage people not to stop praying no matter how bad it looks. Because the Bible says in Acts 16 31, believe on the Lord Jesus and you and your family will be saved. And so my parents prayed me into the Kingdom. And so I'm here by the grace of God. I got radically saved at a Deep Purple concert. So that gives you a little clue where I was at. Wait a minute. You got saved at a Deep Purple concert? Yeah, in May 1973. They were just touring with Smoke on the Water, a new song that came out in 1972. And they were touring in 1973. And it was at the Baltimore Civic Center. I made a concert, 15 ,000 tickets sold out in two hours. They were the number one band in America at that time. And during the intermission I had an encounter with God where the Lord spoke to me for the first time. I'm not talking about audibly in the small still voice. Because I was having this for two weeks, this visitation from the Lord Jesus. Without anyone witnessing to me. That's why I'm saying the power of... Now when you say that because people are listening and I'm really one of them. Like you're thinking, what do you mean by that? I mean here you are, you know, you're a teenager, right? Right. You are big time into drugs and you're selling drugs. You go to a Deep Purple concert. Now you say that for two weeks up to that, God had been somehow communicating with you or visiting you. What do you mean specifically? Okay, so two weeks before I'm at my friend Sal's. We're at a party. Just guys bonging on marijuana and smoking and drinking beer. Nothing heavy. It wasn't like we were tripping on acid or anything. But I was just bored because I was just doing that every day. It was just so monotonous. You know, day in, day out, just getting high. So I went to another room and I was into Zen Buddhism at that time. Just experimenting with Eastern religion. So I went to the room just to go through my chant and after saying the stupid chant, I was saying it incessantly for almost a year. And finally I just said, you know what, this is the stupidest thing I've ever done. I said that to myself. I got nothing out of it, Eric. And you just said, duh. Yeah, right. No, but this is how he said that. So I said God, I said this audibly by the way, no one was in the room. I said, God, I don't even know if you exist, but if you do exist, if my parents, what they told me is true, that there's a heaven and a hell. Well, I don't want to go to hell if there is a hell, but I don't know. So reveal yourself to me. So I was expecting him to show me if he does exist in the days ahead. But as soon as I prayed that right there in the party, the presence of God came all over me and I started to weep because I felt so much love and peace about me. Alone in the room. Alone in my room. And I was sobbing and I knew, I knew it was Jesus. I just knew because I just prayed if what my parents told me as a Christian pastor, if Jesus is the way, if there is a heaven and a hell. And so I thought I was having some kind of emotional breakdown, but it lasted for three days. Every day that presence came on me and I would just start weeping. And I said, what is going on? No one witnessed to me. Are you kidding? Now hold on because we're going to go to a break. Jay on is my guest. It's Miracle Monday. I love these kind of stories. We'll be right back with the rest of the story. And there's plenty more. It's the air from Texas show.

And of course, listen to the Hillsdale Dialogues, all of them at hughforhillsdale .com or just Google Apple, iTunes, and Hillsdale. Good morning, glory America. Bonjour, hi Canada, and greetings to Montgomery County, New York, specifically to St. John'sville, Kona Johari, I think that's how I say it, Fonda, Johnstown, all of you cities. There are 10 towns in one city in Montgomery County, and thanks to Talk Radio 1120 97 .9, they have joined the Borg, and I always like to welcome aboard a new affiliate. We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add to a biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. We're closing in on 500 platforms here at the Hugh Hewitt Show, 500 platforms. Mike Gallagher is green with envy, radio talk show host, Mike Gallagher. But we are just cooking in Montgomery County, New York, and it's great to have you along. I hope you're not underwater. The biggest story that I'm going to talk the most about, a guy named Patrick Fitzgerald, a legendary and beloved football coach at Northwestern. I'm going to spend a lot of time talking about that today, and my phone number is 1 -800 -520 -1234. If you want to weigh in on what happened at Northwestern, I'll fill you in shortly, but I want to do the news first. Northeastern storms dump over two months rain in one day on the state of Vermont. Now, I live next door in Maine during the summer, and Vermont is a mess. I mean, I don't know. I hope nobody died, but there is so much damage, and it's a weird weather system. It moved over to the northern Maine coast where I am for the summer and the rain, but I'm on the coast, so it doesn't matter to me. I don't have a river to flood me, and I cannot believe the capital, Montpelier, had to close its downtown. And it's not just another Washington Post headline, the historic and deadly New England flood trap residents destroy roads. It's not just Vermont, although Vermont is the epicenter of what was this amazing flooding event. Meanwhile, it's set in California up on Palos Verdes Peninsula. I think that's where Harley lives, and they've lost a dozen homes into a canyon up there. That's just the after effect of the winter. For my new listeners in Montgomery County, New York, I spend the winter in California, the fall and the spring in the Beltway when the Congress is in session, and I come up north during the summer. And Studio North is where I am today. And all during the winter, all I did was complain about the fact that it was California. It just rained. It just rained and rained and rained. I came to Maine, and all it's doing is raining, raining, raining. But the weather is always interesting only to people who are living it particularly. I know it's like a heat wave across Phoenix. My friends in Phoenix are boiling. So it's a weird, say it's summer, this summer. We are also in the slow news season, right? So I just want you to understand between now and the first Republican debate hosted by Fox in Milwaukee in late August, there really won't be much news. There's some fundraising news today, but there won't be much real news.

Yeah, well, I look at things from the other side of the, I am a black woman and I look at things from a different set of lens. That's okay. And I, yes, because that's what America's all about. And I understand where you're saying you would like to see affirmative action struck down. From my point of view, my great -grandmother, my grandmother, they never got paid wages for any labor that they contributed to the building of this country. So give us reparations and we'll be fine. You can have affirmative action. Just give us the money, you know what I mean? Give us what you owe. Show you the money. Yeah, give us what you owe. Show us the money. You know, and of course it gets very difficult, as you know, Brenda, because a lot of people feel the way you do. Hey, show me the money, give me the money for my great -grandparents and you can have affirmative action. Even Gavin Newsom has backed off on slavery reparations for black Americans in 2023. I mean, if the day, I've said this before and I wanna, let me bounce it off of you for a moment. And I do appreciate your point of view. I mean, I understand this is a tough debate. If the day comes in this country where every non -black citizen has to pay money to black citizens, we're gonna be in a world of hurt, Brenda. Do you know how bad that's gonna be? Well, but then we're on a level playing field. Really? So me as a white man paying you. Think of you being in our shoes. And I do that a lot. I always try to put myself in another person's shoes.

The Hugh Hewitt Show: Highly Concentrated
Chairman Gallagher Reveals Critical Flaw in Democratic Strategy
"Chairman Gallagher, do you did your democratic colleagues give a reaction similar to your Republican colleagues? Or was it different? Did they dispute this opening sentence? How do they respond? You know, I think the major difference was after the game in terms of what do we do going forward? And we're going to have a policy discussion tonight. It will be a closed door policy discussion, but we're going to have admiral Mark Montgomery and some other experts to guide us in order to identify what are the things we can do to enhance near term deterrence. I think that on the democratic side, it's fair to say their prioritizing the idea of engagement as a successful way to diffuse this crisis, whereas, and I only speak for myself, you know, I was reading secretary Yellen speech, which was all about how we need to engage with the CCP. We need to engage with China to promote peace. And I thought, well, we've tried engagement for two decades, and it's failed. So the idea that we're just going to engage harder and that engagement is somehow going to amount to deterrence. I don't believe that. So I think that being said, I think there's agreement on the idea that of course we should have some sort of communication channel where our military people can pick up the phone if things are heating up and say, hey, let's avoid some miscommunication. But here's the thing here. And this gets to the engagement hypothesis of why I continues to fail. We've actually tried for the last 5 years to reestablish such a channel and the Chinese refuse to meet us halfway. And right now it seems like the Biden administration is chasing Chinese officials around the world desperately trying to have a meeting. They are what Matt Turpin is called an Ardent suitor for a meeting with the CCP, hoping that engaging just for the sake of engagement will produce positive results. So I think that's one meaningful difference that I see between the parties and of course my bias is that only hard power deters. That's what we really. That's the best form of communication.

Congress to Televise War Game on Taiwan Crisis
"I want you to tell us as much as you can. I hope it's televised. I doubt that it is. But I would watch that. I would actually pull up the chair and watch the committee to a war game. What is happening? We are, it is going to be televised. It's not going to be in real time. It's going to be the whole thing's going to be filmed, and then we're going to take a portion of it and it'll be it'll be televised the next day, I believe, depending on how quickly they can cut it up. So I think it'll be a fascinating insight just into the challenge we face across the Taiwan strait, as well as the different tradeoffs that members are thinking about and what we can do ultimately in this Congress to enhance our deterrent across the Taiwan strait. One thing that really troubled me yesterday when we had a hearing with representatives from indo Pacific command as well as U.S. forces, Korea, I asked the commander in a Pacific command if he was concerned about the depth of our magazine capacity, IE that we would sort of run out of critical munitions in the event of a war. And every war game I played and I played a few of them now, that happens. And you talk to admiral Mark Montgomery, you talk to our mutual friend, Jerry Hendricks. That's probably the top thing they say. It's just that we don't have the requisite number of long range anti ship missiles and SM 6 and other key weapon systems we need. But the end of Pacific commander responded saying he's not too worried about that. He's not too worried about our ability to respond to deter and deal with that contingency. And that shocked me.

G7 vows to step up moves to renewable energy, zero carbon
"G 7 countries promise a faster shift to clean energy but set no timeline for phasing out coal. Wrapping up a two day meeting in Japan, ministers of the G 7 wealthy nations are issuing a 36 page document laying out commitments for a predominantly decarbonized power sector by 2035, but this stipulation of relying predominantly on clean energy leaves room for the continued use of fossil fuel power. Yet, minister stress that phasing out coal must be prioritized in accounting for 25% of global carbon emissions, G 7 nations must do more, says U.S. climate envoy, John Kerry. Those countries will really determine what happens here. If they will reduce, if they will take the lead, if they will start deploying the new technologies, if they will get rid of the unabated fossil fuels, we've got the chance of winning this battle.

"Do you think what are the expectations for him in year one? Yeah, I mean, it's going to be tough, right? Because you even look at this team and even if bergeron's back and let's say you have David cruci back back on cheap and you have at least a top 6 set foundation down the middle of this team. It's all well and good, but if that's your only plan if you're done with Sweeney, which again he's kind of made this mess himself in terms of just not having extra cap room or what have you, you're still going to be stuck in a tough spot and it's tough for a guy like Jim Montgomery who again, you're kind of looking at uphill climbs. It's not fair. I think to compare him to Cassidy, not only just the different coaching styles, but even like let's say if the bruins give Johnny beecher 30 games up here, they give Jack Sydney a 30 games. I feel like that's so it's not fair to either Montgomery or Cassie to compare that because Bruce Cassidy is not a guy you hire or retain to spur a youth movement. He's a win now guy. He's motivated to win. And it's for him. It's about working with a veteran roster and getting his name on the damn cup. Get his name on it. He's a great exes and O's coach. Very candid with players and has a very high standard for winning hockey. So you can say that him and Montgomery have different dynamics. Maybe of how they kind of go about their day to today stuff. But in terms of the objectives of this team, yes, this is a brooms team that if you want to read the tea leaves, thinks that they can have at least one more run in them. But there's other dynamics at play in terms of the need for younger players to step up. Other things like that. So for him, Montgomery, it's going to be an uphill climb, especially at the start of the address in terms of treading water because even if you have great gene bergeron, let's say you sign another free agent winger or something like that. It's still going to be tough, no mcavoy and march and it even gris like, right? It's still a couple of key guys. You're going to be missed for two plus months to start the year. Yeah, it's hard to pin expectations on. I'm just giving you don't know the roster quite that. And what they're going to do because Sweeney had mentioned doing some definitely some things this off season. You wonder what they're doing free agency around the draft. So we will see. But yes, Jim Montgomery reportedly the next head coach is bruins. Crazy, crazy enough. The search is over..

"Here. So it creates a camaraderie kind of the thing we were talking about that I missed during that transition. We had that year, which is definitely one of the things I miss the most. And so where do you see Casey cattle company in the future just continue to march on down the road and continue the same battle plan or you got some big surprises in the near future? Yeah, so this year has been weird for us. We've never had a normal year since I started the company, right? Like 2019 was a hot dog deal 2020 COVID. So this is kind of our first semi normal year. And it's been anything but inflation's definitely just on the chin. We've been battling that the entirety of the year. And just trying to figure out how you navigate those waters. And we're rolling into holiday season that I'm pretty excited about. I think it's going to be a big one for us. For 2021, we're working on building the new fulfillment center down in the city and then open a retail space down there. So we're pretty excited about that. And we're also we're thinking about doing a food truck here in Kansas City that are slinging some of our burgers and dogs. So that's kind of another initiative that we're pushing. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, because we just moved from Kansas City so we're down in Florida now, but we'll definitely be coming back to visit friends and family from time to time. So have to come out and check out the operations sometime. When you come up, definitely let me know and we'll give you a tour. Yeah, love to see it. That'd be awesome. So to close out, you know, if you're talking to somebody out there, a veteran, somebody getting out some of the transition, looking to start their own business. Wait a minute, before we do that, back up a little bit. How do we find Casey cattle company? Because you're our direct to consumer, right? That's all we do. Talk about that process. And if somebody's interested in Casey cattle company, you had we fight you. Yeah, so easy to find this run all the social major social media platforms at Casey cattle company. And then if you're looking to order, check out our product or ask us a question, just jump on Casey cattle company dot com. And you can find our contact info there to shoot us an email. We love helping veterans that are interested in starting businesses so don't hesitate to reach out. Awesome. All right. Back to last question. You're talking to somebody that's getting out in transition looking to get business for themselves, start their own company, what kind of advice would you have for them? My first one is to whatever that little number is on your business plan of the amount of capital you're going to need to start your company. Double it, and you'll probably be a lot closer to the money you're actually going to need to start your business. My second would be just know that the first three years are going to suck. But believe in yourself and believe in what you're doing. And embrace the suck, right? We're no strangers to adversity. So just kind of embrace that those first couple of years that you're going to struggle to get on your feet. It's going to happen. And don't lose faith in lucite and also definitely don't hesitate to reach out to people for help. Awesome. All right, great advice, Patrick. Awesome interview.

"A very real thing. So beware. Yeah, that's awesome. All right, well, hold that thought. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. I've been a navy federal credit. You remember for over 31 years. Back in 1990 during my first few weeks of active duty, one of my fellow marines told me I had to become a member of navy federal because they know and understand the military. So I did. And 31 years later, I still have that exact same account. We also now have all of our business accounts with navy federal. In honor of Veterans Day, navy federal thanks veterans in a meaningful way. They offer resources like best careers after service, best cities after service. They're a top VA home lender. They offer veteran employment assistance partnerships with nonprofits like U.S. vets. They get the military. At navy federal, every day is Veterans Day. You can learn more at navy federal dot org slash veterans. That's navy federal dot org slash veterans. Insured by NC UA and equal housing lender. Back talking with army veteran Patrick Montgomery founder of Casey cattle company. So Patrick just had to know where you jumped in entrepreneurship, started business, a lot of lessons learned, what kind of skills did you learn in the military, what were some of those skills you had learned from all your experience in the army that really came to light and helped out in being a business owner? It's a great question, Joe and I think there's a couple things that jump immediately to mind there in the first which is we mentioned that our original business plan, which is failing. It just was not working. We were losing money in over fist. And one of the things you learned in the military is you can have the best plan in the world, but when that first shot goes over your head, it goes out the window, right? We've all heard that a million times. And that carries over so well to the business world because you can learn to flip that switch when you're in the military. Hey, this isn't working. I need to try new plan of attack. You're not setting that ego that egotistical. I created this plan. It's got to work. I got to keep double and down. And so adaptability is freaking huge that you learn in the military, the transfers over very well to entrepreneurship. The other part should work ethic, right? You're no stranger to work in 60 to 80 hours a week. And that's what you're going to do those first couple years of business. And even now, it's like we're in our fourth year sales. We have an established business model, but I still work 68 hours a week. But I get to do it in places like this talking to you instead of in an office cube somewhere. So I just think the military does a lot of disservices to veterans in the aspect of they don't preach entrepreneurship more. We all hear that there's all these issues going on in the venture community. But I think part of that is perspective. We all dealt with things that were terrible when we were in. Whether you deploy it or not, and if you just kind of flip that mindset of a, those things I experienced are going to be detrimental to the rest of my life to hey, I'm the take that experience. And I'm going to use it to motivate myself to go do awesome things in my community once I exit. I think it's huge. Right. Yeah, great perspective. So you're in year four, you say of Casey cattle company roughly yep, this is a fourth year sales. So have you started if you start making a profit? Yeah, so last year was our first year making money. Awesome. What was it specifically that turned the tide? Was it the hot dogs? Or was it just a reassessment of the whole business model? So the hot dogs was a great deal. We lost money on that, because my business just wasn't designed to ship single packs, hot dogs across the country. We gained 20,000 customers that read about our story and loved the brand and they absolutely loved the product so they came back to purchase more. So we get an established business model out of that, going into 2020, we had all these plans of a little more controlled growth instead of just chaotic growth like we experienced in 2019. But then obviously COVID changed all that. And for us, it was in a good way. I mean, people can find protein on their shelves, so they were scouring the Internet for beef and they came to us. And so we gained a ton of new customers out of that as well. So going back to the hot dog thing, everyone talks about it. Don't eat hot dogs or so much bad stuff in them. Obviously, your hot dogs don't have all this bad stuff in them. So have you had any issues overcoming the stigma of the whole concept of hot to hugs? Well, you know, it's kind of good for us because we have a ton of counterarguments to the arguments people make to us, right? It's packed full of sodium. Our hot dogs are one of the lowest sodium that you're going to find. Out there. So moms love to feed them to their kids. People that are worried about their help of the eat are hot dogs. We're not pumping in some of the weird things that you see in hot dogs throughout the store. All natural, uncured, fully cooked caseless hot dog made a 100% with Wagyu beef. So it kind of sells itself and once you try the product, people are like, man, it's best hot dog I've ever had. You're always going to have that stigma of people that are healthcare just, but I always like to say, you know what's worse for you that tight coker hot dog and I'm going to argue it's the Diet Coke. Yeah, exactly. And so as far as the beef price is hamburger, great steaks, typically I'm assuming you're a little bit higher than a lot of the other beef that's there in the freezer. Yeah, so Wagyu beef across the boards more expensive. That's for two full kind of which we talked about earlier. You feed them for about twice as long. So you put more inputs into them and they're staying alive for another year. So that's one of the reasons they're smaller frame cow with the smaller yield to beat they come off of them. So there is definitely a premium for our product. Don't be surprised when you see that. But compared to the our competitors, we are quite a bit cheaper. And it's probably not as expensive as any time you go into a whole foods or any of the health food stores everything in this automatically more expensive, whether it really needs to be or not. So talk about some of the other aspects of running a business and how important your leadership skills from the army have come into play and dealing with employees and I did see something where you're only hiring veterans. You only have veterans working for you is that right? Yeah, so we have all veterans working here. There's 7 of us now. And it's a pretty tiny group people would like to say, like, oh, that's so cool. You do that, but it's a huge benefit for the company because we all had the same work ethic and we're pretty picky about the veterans. We do bring on here. But we all have the same mentality. We all have the same goal and I also think that's one of the things the military teaches you just taking care of your guys. That's what good leaders do. And gals. And so that's one of the things I brought in the business is, you know, it's not all about me, making money. If we have a good year, we get back. And we get back to veteran organizations and I embrace the suck just just alongside everybody else that works.

I think this is just on a street but pops up all the time where people are like. I'm your fate. I'm your biggest fan. Where do you play now like that i get. I used to get that all the time. Like i loved you at uconn lake. Where are you right in the wnba. I'm your biggest fan. And i'm like my biggest fan not know where i play on another question that i think questions where people don't do their research so reporter asked me like you know. Why are you asking me. How many championships i would. If you're right in the story you should be felt like. I got asked questions about my career. So those are the worst questions like. Have you have some where you're going with it. Okay but if you say like hey so how many Championships did you win in college. One in how many in the pros to oh okay. Okay and i'm thinking of questions coming after that. I'm like that's the question. I just think people not doing. Their homework is the worst question. Is it an over is an oversimplification. When venus williams basically because i love her attitude about the mental health stuff when she's quoted as saying well my attitude was. I just went into that press conference. I looked at. Everybody knows none of you. Were any good at this like any questions. You ask critique me on like none of you and she can make the further argument that none of you are any as good at what you do as i am at what i do like. If that's real then that confidence is real. Like i don't know how those particular sisters endured everything rene everything serena got. It was criticism of her toned. Tenor her style her outfits. Her body her swagger her dancing like and she was stood all of that garbage and overcame all of that garbage and now assad but dan. Nobody thought that that was garbage. The as it was happening in real time. No one really made a big deal of it. She just kind of took it and went on one to everybody are no harm. No foul see. That's the problem though. Because what does she was speaking out as it was happening. I think that people would have recognized more but week. Kim remember like the things that men will do on the tennessee side in women would do on the tim. Aside the punishments were so different. We all saw it but we all are like okay. Well if she's handelman it than we're handling it. Naomi osaka was like no no no. No i ain't dealing with it. That's the only difference stu gods yesterday. If you're not familiar rene stugatz around. Here is obsessed and addicted with the most common of wonderful things in sports and at every turn any conversation that we're having about anything lee. Recently this is a recent development stugatz wants to form a super league of some sort he wants to create a super league and the shipping container was telling me that they were talking to you earlier. And you wanted to create you. Want to bond here with stugatz to create your own superleague of of what they have not told me why it is that you wanna create your own superleague. Yeah so i'm into this whole super. I've never heard of a super league until they just decided up and make a super league in and so like interesting concept so says were making super league. I thought why not make a super league of women. We've seen how men have ran the world for x. amount of time. Now what have we just see. How women do. We seen it on. Y'all do it. What have we just took our turn at it and saw how far we can turn things up. I don't know we got a vp. Now come is. I think we're on the right track. Let's see where this josiah not not just sports. Just what are you talking. How many people are we putting on this list. What do you mean you love it. Do you even wasting zuccarello. You love it. You don't even know what the ideas but just how many league of women who were thing challenging. Are they going against men. What are we doing. Billie jean king. It's not a us versus them is let us take the lead. So whatever the lead position is wherever you're at let a woman sit in it so visit president. Let a woman in the mayor of your city. Let a woman take a seat and see how she leaves. So it's not uh. Oh i m. It's you guys. Take the backseat. Let us take the lead in. See if we can pick this thing up and get it back on the right track because it just has been since the beginning of time. I don't even think that ends up for debate. So let's see how we do okay a couple more years. We'll get it right though so true for so long we've been screwing this up and they keep letting us be in charge. We still have men hang around to just do like the jobs that the women don't want they can carry heavy stuff you know. They liked that to show how strong they are. We can let them. We feed the ego to see. We're good at that. We can leave but also make them feel like they're leading so we can we can work with the egos. We can do all kinds of different things superleague baby. That's how it works. We can let them take out the trash and empty the sink drain in the sink clogs up like the men can do that part right. I don't wanna do that can do the yucky stuff. Yeah we gotta do the brain brainpower. You've got the bra and we've got the brains. Let's make lots of but we still get paid the most for carrying the garbage around though right it's not equal. Pay your thing you would write. What the highest page yet for taking attract right. Yeah but you're you're not getting paid like we have all the jobs like you just have to do chores and stuff. I think what you have to pay us right. it's liam neeson you have to pay us more right. It's not coming out of our end right. We we can you can give you can placate or egos but we still get to get paid. The mirror day. I'm with you right up until you start taking money out of my bank account superleague. I'll say what in the handmaid's yes my knee and willing to reduce i in because there's a. There's a problem here where a lot of people have a lot of money and there's a lot of people don't have any money so we have to fix that problem. Too as part of our duty of super league we have to just corrected all. It's all messed up. How about we pay the men but we just give them seventy cents on the dollar. I like where she's going there.

"We have janet montgomery's conversation from salem. I participated in a phone. Press conference and this conversation was featured on my recent time capsule episode but for premium subscribers. You get all by its. Let's go to my conversation with salems. Janet montgomery i think janet's a pleasure to talk to you. What you've performed in what this character has been ruined the first two years or it's amazing Kind of i just did. Some eighty are man. I'll take con high quite a lot. So my question actually deals with the countess. It seems like this. You know there's usually a character comes in and kind of stirs the pot even more. It turns out that it looks like she is that and is that can be kind of like the thread for the season that every relationship and kind of the rivalry is to be part of it I think definitely. It says the rest of the season but i think what's so great about the season is you know. Mary started off slightly caulking on my since. She's sort of had like a real confidence. She you know she was in control missing twenty warning and now we thought that the the well she's gonna enemy coming everybody trying to get out. Nobody's on husayn the really. That's so there's so much coming out that it. The count is only part of a lot of other people who are trying to get married but she really is. You know the county's only one part fan you know. There's an element to her that you can't help feeling for her a little bit because the way things happen to her. This is not something that she asked for to adapt to survive. So there's an element of sympathy. That i have her market. That's what the right to the really. Well i am constantly sort of sidon. Stay it you know. I don't want The the audience to sympathize with mary And come from necessary. The writing writing i like. Oh well she did this because like she is. She's doing everything she can and she does have a hot. But also there are things that are unredeemable. She's done and she that she's doing but she's very complicated. I think a lot of concern about also been when neither good nor bad. We'll somewhere in the gray area and not that's sort of sort of catches. I wanna play an what. I'm really trying to do with. This character is every time she does something i think. Wow like how people are going to sympathize. I managed to find a way in which people can understand why she's doing it. You know we'll end of the day. Yeah she's definitely complicated with a capital c. I wanted to ask you when you guys do your read through for the episode each episode. But kind of tell us a little bit what. The dynamic of that room is such an amazing cast. But it's interesting because you know we don't always have everybody here but the cool group of us are usually at the age you know and i think we all love to hit. Hit the episode out loud. All right the coal jay and we just enjoy it. And i'm i'm glad i get to work on a show. You know lois shows don't have time for reefers guy on a show which we all get together and and read it all together. 'cause sometimes you know this year i i'd much much interaction with the seasons going on with fast and so it's nice to be able to see them every week and go through the episode. Read it and hear what's going on in the end the it's also besides a heart element is also a tragic element to this. Almost i i dare say almost shakespearean to the way the way. The show is crafted becoming on that. Yeah i it. Sounds like a great tragedy. Or something. And i think that each time he thinks catching break a lot of my office episode. It was like heartbreaking. When you feel like is it gonna get away with dolly. And then you realize that. It's the countenances shit heartbreaking you think. Oh god this shouldn't be happening to these people. I kind of love that though every time every time someone you think they're gonna escape. They don't absolutely the here. It was heartbreaking heart breaking what about the the horror aspect of the series. I'm actually surprised on how much you got. You guys can actually do. It's really amazing. You know you never know especially with like a new network how much you can show. And and how. Much much. And i think the most the thing that makes the show really work at the moment and especially we've really got it in. The second season is the broncos are not holding back and it's very shocking. And i think that really works for the show because it makes it that that that having free rein create the wells and it means that we're doing something very different from anything else is on tv and we're not holding back because of warring. We're going to upset someone out there. The show definitely has its own mythology to no doubt about it. It's amazing how you kind of weaved your own kind of brand to the witches and everything. It's very different. And as far as the period closer concerned are you a fan of them or can you. can you. do you like wait until you. You can't wait until you get back into your normal clothes. I mean on the fun of definitely the way they look and joe the culture design as for just such an incredible job. They always looks spectacular. I think you know the season. He even excelled in south asia with mary close. But it's not comfortable. I can't of course it's uncomfortable. And i can't wait to get out of the you know the twelve hours voting.

We live in when i when we had our first kid and she started to hit that point where you couldn't go with her to a brewery without her wanting to run around like mad person. You know we we would load up the wagon and we would go you know. I live in fairfield so go to hamilton. Who has a door. We grab a beer and you just walk around and all of a sudden. She's calm she's happy fun. And you can kind of just be out and you know i. I hope that everybody understands that. Power of a dora. I think we just got it in november. So we don't know yet yeah just starts getting cold. It doesn't make as much sense but we we do have a couple that comes on a religious basis every week they they stop at an outdoor window on our patio that you don't even have to come inside you knock on the window. We opened that up. We serve your door a beer fantastic. They bring their dog in their in their kids. In strollers they walk around for a little bit. Comeback grabbed the second beer and then they had on home there. They're great people occasionally. If it's not too cold they'll still sit out on the patio. Even though it's forty degrees they enjoy it out there. It's great you gotta do what you gotta do. Sometimes and then summer hits door will be a lot more fun. You know the best deal day celebration that that montgomery does every year. That'll be fantastic. They do the parade up of montgomery road.

I'm sure if you get on and google montgomery door You can find the map and see kind of where you're allowed to beer and stuff. I would say that. I would put a lincoln show notes but we all know that i would forget to. Let's have another beer what we have here catch a flight of four different beers. You tell me where you want me to start. We'll just start with start with number one number. One is our dawson and we actually just just won an award for that at the us bureau championship. You've got a bronze medal. We were about six months old at the time that we entered into the competition and to walk away with any piece of hardware is outstanding. it's a tribute to what bill has done throughout his years of home brewing and jc jordan. Our brewer would he did to actually execute that. It's crisp it's clean. It tastes exactly like you would expect a german heff of ice and it tastes like. Did you take more pride in winning an award for something like this as you would for some kind of. I don't know pastry stout some kind of big thing. With all kinds of craps ronin there you know like little more traditional personally traditional beers but you know we like to offer variety so we have. We're going to have both kinds of not both. We're going to have a lot to different varieties including the pastry. The milkshake right. Whatever it is. I have nothing against i just i. I enjoy stuff like that. So much. more you know this brings in all of those You guys know. German dates like it's got the demand clove flavor. Some bubble gum going on. And that's all coming from actual beer ingredients for from from yeast for most of us. He's not throwing in a bunch of flavorings adjuncts. or things. Like that that simulate flavors this is coming from a beer and to me. That is more fun than not that. Not that the other stuff doesn't have a place in in the world of craft. It's clearly it does it. Has the other stuff is fun. And i like those as a one off but the fact that you get a a good crisply beer out of quality ingredients in brood. Properly to me is more satisfying. Nothing wrong with pastries doubts. But i'll drink one patriots stout for every fifteen doubts that i drink most of the time. I can't even get through one of them. This is my share it with. Somebody can't can't drink all this myself. This one i could sit. And i could drink all day especially in the summertime when the sun's beaten down on me on this is great. It's a fantastic beer. You guys i mean clearly. You don't need to tell you that because you know somebody else told us to the award. Although i think i told you guys about that too as a matter of fact the announced the the awards and we did not know we had one the until you put it out there. There's to give dowell a little bit of credit. That's a lot of people. He had to notify awards. Dallas thousand great guy. He runs a really quality championship. does a lot for the beer community but the a couple thousand injuries and all those awards get out. There can't notify everybody before he puts the list out especially in the world that we're in now. You know his his competitions not just beer like it brings in shelters insiders and all that stuff too. And that's that's a whole other world now to that has to wait his way through we should talk about. You guys. do have the seltzer right. Yes talk about that decision. A little bit was was it. Tough to decide to put a seltzer on. Or was it an easy no brainer. Because you knew that that's what some of the people that were coming here really wanted to do a drink so i thought it was an easy decision. There is little more to bring us closer than you might think but you know once. We studied in and check in with some of our brewing friends. You know we thought it was a good a good augmentation to what we were offering and basically gluten free sugar free so it offers another another option folks easy decision. I admit i was a little snobbish at first with bills. Have we wanna do seltzer. I would. I was kind of hesitant and it was like. Oh come on no. It makes total sense it..

I mean there's to be something else and i mentioned before if there's something into trial to where it was like i don't know man you know you're gonna victim on that. Jeez or you know. I just feel there's something going on with the trial itself. It's someone is really really innocent. Then we need to do everything we can to get them out. We need to do everything we can hear all the evidence and if it takes ten fifteen years to do that good means going through every appeals court that there is if there's some type of the trial isn't like super perfect in terms of evidence being presented or something like that bad counsel whatever. I'm all for that man. I'm not just like you know. Oh you're guilty. Let's go ahead and strap in and send you to hell. I'm not. I'm not all about that if there's any type of discrepancy or question regarding a trial was about the murder of somebody. You wanna make sure. I'm questioning in this country. We put innocent man to death or an innocent woman to death. But you wanna go through every legal chain or avenue possible to make sure that if this person is going to be put to death then he actually did the crime. So if there's some type of hiccup or something in the process to come to that well then yeah. My fucking problem is when they did the crime but from some mitigating circumstances. Well here's a low. I q we'll hear the background. Well it's because he's black well because he's a muslim all because he's the man. Oh yeah it's something to wear. If this guy did the crime he's got to go.
