0:00 This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast.
0:24 I'm your host Kyle Thompson, let's get into it.
0:27 So God created man in his own image.
0:29 In the image of God, he created him.
0:30 Male and female, he created them.
0:32 That's Genesis 127.

1:00 They are there in the show notes.
1:01 Also, as always, we are so thankful to our donors.
1:04 And guys, if you have not left us a review
1:06 and shared the show with a friend,
1:07 you're a terrible, terrible, awful person, please do that.
1:09 And only five star reviews, please, please, please.
1:12 All right, today we are going to be doing a bunch of quick hitters.
1:14 So the quick hitters today, the bipartisan and feminism
1:17 fueled push to allow proxy voting in Congress.
1:20 The results of the most expensive statewide judicial race
1:23 in US history, former UFC heavyweight champion
1:25 came to Alaska as being sentenced to five years in prison,
1:28 domestic terrorist targeting Tesla drivers,
1:30 vehicles, and dealerships, RFK juniors
1:32 fight to keep Americans from buying junk food with food stamps
1:35 and the sports moment of the year.
1:39 But we haven't talked about my good old buddy, Andy Stanley,
1:42 on the show in a while.
1:44 And if you're new to the show and we're so thankful
1:46 for all of our new listeners, we get new listeners every week.
1:48 We're so, so thankful for you.
1:49 Just to bring you up to speed just a little bit,
1:51 I used to be a huge, Andy Stanley guy.
1:53 If I had to pick one guy that was like my favorite passer
1:56 to listen to every week and then I got the most from,
1:58 I would probably have said Andy Stanley,
1:59 would have been Andy Stanley or Matt Chandler.
2:02 And then there was quite the turn, right?
2:05 And he kind of became a focus of my ire.
2:07 And so I go into great detail, guys.
2:09 If you're new to the show, three episodes,
2:10 you need to go back and listen to episode 423.
2:13 Andy Stanley is a heretic, 499 update.
2:16 Andy Stanley is still a heretic and 512 Andy Stanley,
2:20 the circle drawing snake.
2:21 And I will bring you completely up to speed as to why I think
2:24 Andy Stanley is one of the most dangerous people,
2:26 if not the most dangerous person in all of Western or Christendom.
2:29 But Andy Stanley has been marching away from the Bible
2:32 for a very, very long time.
2:34 And the march away from the Bible and anything resembling
2:36 Christian orthodoxy or orthopraxity and orthopraxity
2:40 and towards secular leftism.
2:41 And for Andy Stanley and his entire ministry apparatus,
2:44 it's just continue to pace, right?
2:46 It's actually been very, very astonishing
2:48 at the continual direction that he is heading in.
2:51 But here recently I was made aware of an exclusive report
2:54 that was released by the website, Protestia.
2:56 And this was in late March.
2:57 And some people out there are not big fans of Protestia
2:59 because they follow all these pastors.
3:01 But the thing is, you may not like Protestia's commentary,
3:05 but they are bringing you the facts about what is happening
3:07 in some of these huge churches around the country.
3:10 So you may not like the fact that they're taking shots
3:12 of pastors, but they're basically the only news source,
3:16 if you could call them that.
3:17 That is even going after it.
3:18 But there was revealed a, there was a leaked video
3:22 that came out from Andy Stanley's church
3:23 and it was LGBTQ training.
3:27 That was this video.
3:28 Now this video is a training video that they show
3:31 to their children's workers at the church, okay?
3:35 So apparently the entire video is about 20 minutes long
3:38 and you have to be a Protestia insider to get access to it,
3:41 which I'm fine with that.
3:42 But Protestia did release a six and a half minute snippet
3:45 of the video on their Twitter account on March the 28th, okay?
3:48 The video features a guy named Britt Kitchen.
3:52 Britt Kitchen and he is a multi-campus director
3:54 of something called Transit there for Andy Stanley's church.
3:57 And part of this program includes ministry
3:59 for middle school students.
4:00 So that's sixth graders, eighth graders.
4:01 So what's that?
4:02 12, 13, 14 year olds, right?
4:04 The video that Protestia was sent by someone anonymously,
4:08 which thank God for this person, is part of there.
4:11 And this is exactly what it's called 2025 LGBTQ leader training
4:16 curriculum, okay?
4:18 It's insane that that's even a thing
4:20 that a church has an LGBTQ plus training,
4:23 like leadership training.
4:25 But the point of these training videos
4:27 is to equip these small group leaders
4:30 in Andy Stanley's church and to equip them in this program,
4:33 these again are essentially children's workers
4:35 on best practices for supposedly LGBTQ kids
4:39 between the ages of like 11 and 14.
4:42 And again, that's even insane.
4:43 That you would have a training video
4:44 that would equip your people to deal with it,
4:47 especially once you see what the training actually includes.
4:51 So I wanna go to the video.
4:53 This is the snippet that they released.
4:55 Now, I don't exactly know how the permissions
4:57 are gonna work and all that.
4:58 So I'm gonna show the whole video here
5:00 or you can listen to the whole video
5:01 that I'm gonna have it here in the show.
5:03 But for whatever reason,
5:04 I have to like delete it later or something like that.
5:06 All of it is in the show notes
5:07 so you can go and check it out for yourself.
5:09 But it's the entire six and a half minute clip
5:11 so you can get a sense of what this dude is saying.
5:13 And then I'll go ahead and break it down.
5:14 Let's go ahead and go to the clip here.
5:17 - We know that if we create a safe place,
5:19 more students will share things with us
5:20 that are difficult to navigate.
5:22 So I wanna talk through how we care for students
5:25 who are experiencing gender dysphoria.
5:28 Now, gender dysphoria, this is a weird term.
5:30 We don't hear it a lot.
5:32 Basically, this is the clinical term used for anyone
5:35 who's unsure about their own gender.
5:37 Dysphoria is the opposite of euphoria.
5:40 Euphoria is like joy, happiness,
5:42 contentment, excitement over a situation.
5:45 Gender dysphoria is like they're not comfortable.
5:48 They don't have joy over it.
5:49 They're not sure where they land.
5:52 So this is the umbrella term
5:54 for several different terms
5:55 that could be underneath gender dysphoria.
5:58 The terms transgender or non-binary
6:01 are some sample terms that an adult might use to describe
6:04 who they are if they're trying to figure out their gender.
6:07 Our goal in these situations
6:09 is to best support the student and the family.
6:11 Now, this is an extremely small part of the population.
6:15 It's more likely they won't happen
6:17 in your small group in middle school,
6:18 but we wanna make sure we're prepared
6:20 and we've thought through how to best care for these students.
6:24 Our goal is to first understand
6:25 where a student is in their journey.
6:28 Now, through the years, we've got to know several families.
6:30 There's one family in particular
6:32 that's very helpful for me.
6:34 Their journey first started
6:35 when their student was five years old.
6:38 So it was before any of the middle school hormones
6:40 of what's going on could even take place.
6:42 And these parents handled it so well
6:44 and took every step so slowly.
6:46 This family first started going to a child psychologist
6:49 and seeing a medical specialist.
6:51 There were times they started using different pronouns
6:53 at home, but only at home.
6:55 They were not using these pronouns in school.
6:57 They weren't even asking to extend a family
6:59 to use those pronouns yet.
7:00 They weren't asking friends to do it yet.
7:03 Then a big step was to pick a new name
7:05 from the other gender so they could start using that.
7:08 But once again, only the new name around the home.
7:12 And they could start wearing different clothing.
7:14 First, just one day a week, once again, only at the home.
7:18 The next big step was going to the extended family,
7:20 the grandparents, the aunts, the uncles, the cousins
7:23 to say, hey, will you start using this name
7:25 and these pronouns for our child?
7:28 Now, somewhere along the way,
7:30 medical interventions started for the student.
7:32 If we're talking about something in middle school,
7:34 more than likely medical injections
7:36 are going to be about stopping puberty
7:40 as opposed to having a surgery.
7:41 That will probably come later in life.
7:44 It would be just a matter of, hey, let's slow down
7:47 or stop puberty from even starting for this child.
7:50 Now at this point, the next big thing that's going to happen
7:52 is they're starting to ask the public
7:53 to start using a different set of pronouns
7:55 and a different name.
7:57 They finally go to the school system
7:58 and ask them to start using those different pronouns.
8:02 Now, what eventually happened was the school system,
8:04 the family, the extended family,
8:06 we're all using different name and pronouns for this child,
8:08 but their local church would not do it.
8:12 Their local church said, nah,
8:14 because we've known him since he was a little boy,
8:16 we're not going to start saying her.
8:18 So not here, not at our church.
8:21 We've known you too long to be able to do that.
8:23 And so everywhere this child went in life,
8:25 they were saying you were one thing,
8:27 but only at church, they had to pretend to be something else.
8:30 And they had to leave that church
8:32 and they finally came here,
8:33 started talking to our care ministry staff
8:35 and we realized, oh my goodness,
8:36 we cannot be the last place a student feels comfortable.
8:40 That's the opposite of our goal for church,
8:42 is to be the last place you feel comfortable
8:44 talking about anything, but we've got to understand.
8:47 It's a really, really long journey for these families.
8:51 I mean, it's years and years and years
8:54 and years and years to make this change.
8:57 In fact, it's very difficult surgery
9:00 to go through later in life.
9:02 In fact, there's upper surgeries and bottom surgeries
9:06 and many people can go through the upper surgery,
9:09 but the bottom surgeries are extremely invasive
9:11 and sometimes don't even work.
9:14 And so it may not even happen,
9:16 be possibility for every person
9:18 who wants to make this change.
9:19 So knowing how long this journey really is,
9:24 it's important that we as staff
9:26 and as small careers care for these students knowing
9:30 this is not gonna be a flip of the switch
9:32 and be taken care of next week.
9:34 This isn't gonna be something that is turned around
9:37 in just a few days.
9:38 This is gonna be a five or six year process
9:41 for the student if they stick with it.
9:45 And the best part is that's exactly
9:47 what our strategy is already made to do,
9:50 to track along for multiple years with the students.
9:53 So this is nothing new for any of you.
9:56 Here's something I remember, 75%,
10:00 which is a huge number, 75% of people
10:05 do not make a full transition.
10:09 It's very rare.
10:10 In fact, as we are caring for the student,
10:13 a lot of the ministry will be to the parents.
10:16 Many times we're helping the parents
10:18 understand the student's journey as well.
10:20 Many times the parents don't know what to do.
10:23 And if you're nervous about what it looks like
10:26 for a student who's considering this change
10:28 or somewhere on this journey of change,
10:30 if you think you're nervous,
10:32 the parents are 10 times as nervous.
10:35 They are much more nervous than you are.
10:38 It was a big deal for them to walk into a church
10:41 with their child and hope someone was going to love them,
10:44 hoping someone was going to care for them.
10:47 In fact, just the other day,
10:48 a student that we walked with from middle school,
10:51 through high school on their change
10:53 and we did the whole thing, the pronouns
10:55 and choosing a different name.
10:57 And there was a ceremony and they started
10:59 doing hormone shots and they're off to college now.
11:02 Well, they're a freshman in college
11:05 and they just reached back out to us to say,
11:08 "Hey, now that I'm a freshman in college,
11:10 "I realize that wasn't true about me,
11:13 "but I'm going to go back to my old name
11:16 "and my old pronouns."
11:18 And we're like, "Okay, well, I'm glad you have a better
11:21 "understanding of who you really are.
11:23 "And I'm so thankful that this student's sparklers
11:27 "didn't draw a hard line in the sand somewhere
11:29 "and said, "Nah, not here.
11:31 "We used to know you went,
11:33 "but we walked alongside the student and his family
11:36 "because we had no idea where their journey
11:40 "is going to go."
11:41 - Okay, so that should have been fairly shocking
11:44 for everybody, but we do need to go and break this down
11:46 because if you're just listening to this
11:48 or driving in the car or something like that,
11:49 there's going to be a whole lot that you probably miss.
11:51 I'm probably missed on this.
11:52 But from the very beginning of this video,
11:54 Kitchen talks about making a quote unquote safe place.
11:58 So obviously there are a lot of issues
12:00 with the safe language because most of the time
12:02 when people are talking about safe places
12:04 or safe spaces or making things safe,
12:06 they're saying don't challenge anyone's priors.
12:10 Don't challenge anyone's philosophies.
12:11 Don't challenge anyone's opinions or points of view.
12:14 And certainly don't say someone is doing something wrong
12:16 or sinful, okay?
12:17 They don't mean safe place in terms of like,
12:19 no, we are going to use our body to protect you
12:21 from the predations of someone that's trying
12:23 to physically hurt you.
12:24 No, they're talking about mental hurt, right?
12:27 Hurting feelings, right?
12:28 Then Kitchen starts by defining the term gender dysphoria,
12:32 okay?
12:33 So here's a quote.
12:34 Our goal in these situations is to best support the student
12:37 and the family, okay?
12:39 So he gives you this definition of a gender dysphoria
12:41 and then he says their goal in these situations
12:43 is to best support the student and the family.
12:45 So clearly, if they want to do that, if that's their goal,
12:48 their stated goal, they're going to uphold
12:50 a biblical ethic on gender, right?
12:53 I mean, clearly they're going to talk about
12:55 how they will, you know, sensitively counsel
12:58 the gender confused child and their parents
13:00 while holding to capital T truth, right?
13:03 Well, of course not because, you know,
13:05 you heard the rest of the clip or watched the rest of the clip.
13:07 So then this guy kitchen describes a specific example
13:10 of a family that had a gender dysphoric child.
13:12 So that a gender confused child, okay?
13:14 And they were supposedly gender confused
13:16 since the age of five.
13:18 And his direct quote is,
13:20 "And these parents handled it so well."
13:24 In a lot of ways, that is the key quote
13:26 of all of my commentary today and of what this guy said
13:29 is that, "And these parents handled it so well."
13:32 So he's holding up these parents as a paragon of virtue
13:36 as the best example of what he can see and surmise
13:39 in a situation like this, okay?
13:40 And this is where you can really tell
13:41 where this video is going.
13:42 I mean, if you don't already,
13:44 you should have, that should have been your signal
13:45 from the very beginning.
13:46 Again, he wants to use his family as an example
13:48 of how to do this well so well.
13:51 Kitchen says the family started using different pronouns.
13:55 So in other words, the family started lying.
13:58 So they know their kid is one gender,
14:00 but they are using different pronouns.
14:02 That's why pronoun hospitality is not a good thing
14:05 because you're lying and we're not supposed to do that.
14:07 And this is not one of those, you know,
14:09 if you were hiding Jews during the Third Reich,
14:13 would you have, you know, lied to tell the SS officer,
14:15 well, no, I'm not hiding them under the floorboards.
14:17 Like, of course, you would have lied
14:18 because human flourishing would have required that you do so.
14:22 This isn't one of those situations.
14:24 Then kitchen says the family took a big step
14:27 by selecting the gender confused kid a new name.
14:30 Now, again, as I've told you before,
14:31 if you want to change your name, that's fine.
14:33 Like if you used to be Jimmy
14:34 and now you want to be called Janet, sure,
14:36 I'll call you Janet.
14:37 Like if you change your name legally and all that,
14:38 sure, I'll call you whatever you want to be called,
14:40 but you're not going to force me to lie, okay?
14:42 Calling you by a different name,
14:43 you can change your name legally, that's no big deal.
14:46 But I'm not going to lie
14:47 and pretend that you're a different gender.
14:49 Then kitchen says that this family started
14:51 letting the kid cross-dress
14:53 but only one day a week, right?
14:55 And only at home, okay?
14:56 No big deal.
14:57 Again, kitchen couches those three things
15:01 that I just mentioned, you know,
15:02 the use of incorrect pronouns lying,
15:04 a new name and allowed cross-dressing
15:06 as no big deal because it was only happening at home, right?
15:10 And again, he says this family did so well
15:13 with their kid.
15:14 Then this family began to coerce their friends and family
15:17 to go along with this a-biblical forest
15:19 by making them use the wrong pronouns
15:21 and the new name for this kid.
15:22 'Cause the way he says it,
15:23 it's like, oh, he asks friends and family
15:25 to start using the new name and the new pronouns.
15:27 No, this is coercion.
15:29 This is you do this or you hate this kid,
15:31 you do this or you don't love us, right?
15:33 That's what this is.
15:34 Then again, remember, he said this family did so well,
15:36 so well.
15:37 He describes how this family started doing
15:40 medical interventions.
15:42 So in other words, physically destroying their child.
15:45 Because again, you can't pause puberty.
15:48 It doesn't matter what they inject into your arm
15:50 or what they do to you.
15:51 You can't pause puberty.
15:54 You can destroy the healthy development of a child,
15:56 but you can't pause anything.
15:59 Then Kitchen talks about how they put their kid
16:01 on puberty blockers to slow things down a bit
16:03 as if that could even happen.
16:04 Then this family began to coerce the greater community,
16:07 not just their friends and family,
16:09 but the kid's school, clubs, church,
16:11 to go along with this a biblical farce
16:13 by making them use the wrong pronouns,
16:15 a new name for this kid.
16:17 And then this is where the video turns really, really dark
16:20 in sinister and satanic, okay?
16:22 Kitchen describes the family's church
16:24 that they were attending at the time
16:26 and how they were the only ones
16:27 that wouldn't go along with this lie.
16:30 And he casts this church as the evil bad guy in the story.
16:35 Think about that.
16:36 Oh, this church just wouldn't go along with it.
16:38 They just wouldn't use the wrong pronouns.
16:40 They just wouldn't lie because we told them
16:41 that's what we wanted
16:42 and that's what would make our kid feel better.
16:45 I mean, think about the ramifications for that
16:47 if the church had done that,
16:49 because if they're gonna punt on this issue,
16:51 what other issues of sin will they punt on?
16:52 Obviously.
16:54 Then Kitchen describes how this poor kid
16:57 could go around everywhere in the world
17:00 and people would play along with this kid's delusion
17:02 and with this parent's delusion,
17:05 but how this evil bad, very, very bad church wouldn't do it.
17:09 Again, driving home that the church
17:11 was doing something wrong and evil somehow.
17:14 And here's a direct quote from this kitchen guy.
17:16 So everywhere this child went in life,
17:17 they were saying, you are one thing,
17:20 but only at church, you had to pretend to be something else.
17:23 This is literally the exact opposite of what is true.
17:29 Because what is true is that at this time,
17:33 everywhere this child went in life,
17:35 he was pretending to be something else,
17:39 but only in this kid's church did the people call him
17:42 to stop pretending.
17:44 Like this is, this is 1984 stuff.
17:47 This is, we're actually gonna take what's true
17:49 and we're just gonna flip it.
17:50 Like this is Animal Farm 1984.
17:52 I mean, Georgia Orwell would absolutely have been
17:54 aghast at watching a video like this.
17:56 Then Kitchen says that the family had to leave that church.
18:01 When in actuality, this family chose to leave that church.
18:03 There's no indication, and he doesn't say it,
18:06 that the church kicked this family out.
18:08 This church chose to leave.
18:09 So Kitchen's just flat out lying there.
18:12 And then they started going to Andy Stanley's church.
18:14 This family did.
18:15 And then this evil quote,
18:17 "We cannot be the last place a student feels comfortable."
18:20 That's the opposite of our goal for church.
18:24 I just need to read this quote again from this kitchen fella.
18:27 We cannot be the last place a student feels comfortable.
18:31 That's the opposite of our goal for church.
18:34 You know what that tells me about Andy Stanley's church,
18:37 about North Point and all the connected churches?
18:39 They are not serious about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
18:42 They're not serious about the gospel.
18:46 You know why?
18:46 Because if their number one goal
18:50 is that they can't be the last place a student feels
18:53 comfortable, don't you think that can be extrapolated out
18:55 to the rest of the people that go to that church?
18:57 Younger children and adults?
18:58 We don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable.
19:02 Guess what guys?
19:04 To really understand and grasp the gospel,
19:07 you have to understand your level of depravity.
19:10 Because if you don't see yourself as depraved,
19:12 you won't see yourself as a depraved sinner
19:14 in need of a payment for your sin debt
19:16 so that you can be in the presence
19:17 of a holy and just Father God.
19:20 The gospel, right?
19:23 They don't take the gospel seriously.
19:25 So we need to stop talking about Andy Stanley
19:27 as if he's running a ministry,
19:29 he's running a left-wing political operation,
19:32 is what he's doing.
19:33 Then Kitchen starts casually talking
19:36 about top and bottom surgeries.
19:38 Just casually, just chopping off healthy breast tissue
19:42 of little girls or inserting silicone tissue into boys,
19:47 cutting off the genitalia of boys
19:49 and making a vagina-like thing
19:51 or sewing flesh from a kid's arm
19:55 onto the kid's crotch in some sort of phallic sense,
19:58 just top and bottom surgery.
19:59 Just evil, just absolute evil, right?
20:04 You know, on the last ask of pastor,
20:07 it's like who from history would you wanna get in a fight with?
20:08 And I said Karl Marx without any hesitation.
20:10 I think it might be Andy Stanley actually.
20:12 Then he talks about how long of a process of transition,
20:16 it will be for a student as long as they stick with it.
20:19 Again, this is the family that he's holding up
20:21 as the example of a family doing this process so well, right?
20:26 They allowed for satanic doctors to pump their children
20:30 or their child full of drugs
20:32 that would chemically castrate them
20:34 on their way to doing mutilation surgeries, right?
20:37 Oh, but if they stick with the transition, right?
20:41 Then Kitchen says this is exactly the strategy
20:44 of their church and their workers,
20:46 to track along with these kids,
20:48 affirming them the entire way
20:50 and never trying to stop the barbarism.
20:53 Never trying to stop the parents from destroying their child.
20:56 That's the church's role according to this doof.
20:59 Then he tries to make this big point, right?
21:03 Rites it real big on his cute little notebook.
21:05 That's 75% of people don't make the full transition.
21:09 Again, which shows that they think transitioning
21:11 is even a thing.
21:12 The entire time he's talking about transitioning
21:16 as if someone could do that.
21:18 I could start presenting in a more feminine way.
21:22 I could shave my beard, grow out my hair,
21:24 wear makeup, grow out my nails and paint them,
21:26 wear a dress, chop my dick off.
21:28 I can do all these things, right?
21:30 But that's not a transition.
21:32 That's me playing dress up and me mutilating myself.
21:35 Then he says that their church's job
21:39 is to minister to the parents,
21:41 which I mean, you wanna talk about rich.
21:43 I mean, how exactly do they do that, right?
21:47 By helping them stand on the word of God,
21:49 by leading them towards capital T truth,
21:51 by giving them the tools by which
21:53 to help their confused child out of their dysphoria.
21:56 Nope, none of those things, that would be too reasonable.
21:58 That would be too godly, that would be too biblical.
22:01 Their job at Andy Stanley's church
22:03 is to make sure that the parents sit down,
22:06 shut the hell up and destroy their child
22:09 and make them feel good and happy along the way.
22:12 That's apparently Andy Stanley's church's stance
22:14 and their job.
22:15 Then Kitchen describes how Andy Stanley's church
22:17 played this exact charade with the students
22:21 so they refer to them by the lie, by the wrong pronouns.
22:24 They call the student by the new name.
22:25 They participated in a transition ceremony,
22:28 whatever that is.
22:29 They stood silent as this kid
22:31 started using chemical castration drugs.
22:33 They likely would have stood silent
22:34 if he had decided to start mutilating his body
22:37 through surgery.
22:39 And then this kid went off to college.
22:40 Only to regret all of it,
22:44 which is what the data actually show, right?
22:47 That if you just leave these kids alone, right?
22:49 They typically grow out of this
22:50 because this is a phase.
22:52 You don't lean into the delusion, it's a phase.
22:54 Both of my sons right now, four and three,
22:57 think that they are dinosaurs.
22:59 Imagine if I started treating them as such.
23:01 As opposed to feeding them food,
23:02 I just threw a live goat in their room
23:05 and said, all right, tear it to shreds, eat it, right?
23:09 If I accepted growls
23:10 as opposed to the English language in my house, right?
23:13 I mean, and then in the ultimate kind of example,
23:17 Stockholm syndrome, what someone would do,
23:19 this student who went on to regret
23:21 this quote unquote transition,
23:23 they go back to their abuser,
23:25 which in this case is Andy Stanley's church,
23:26 to express their deeper grit
23:28 over the fact that they had done this,
23:30 which the church had technically facilitated
23:32 along with the parents.
23:33 Now, Kitchen is describing this as the ultimate win,
23:36 the ultimate win.
23:38 This super confused student went off to college,
23:41 they regretted all the things that we helped them do,
23:43 and then they came back to us,
23:45 which is what a good abuser would like.
23:47 The abuser loves it when their abuse
23:49 come back to them for help, right?
23:51 It's the ultimate, I think, what was it?
23:53 Stalin or Lenin, one of them,
23:55 they're at some event or something like that,
23:57 and they wanted to prove
23:58 why they were doing the things that they were doing.
24:00 So he brought in a chicken,
24:01 and he proceeds to pluck the chicken of its feathers live,
24:04 you know, torturing the chicken, right?
24:07 Puts the chicken down,
24:08 and then gets the chicken to come back to him
24:09 because he hand-fed it, right?
24:11 So he abuses this animal to make a point,
24:14 but the animal comes back as it needs to be fed.
24:17 But anyone with a functioning brain
24:19 is aware enough to say that this begs the ultimate question.
24:22 What if the student didn't regret it?
24:25 What if this person didn't go on to regret
24:30 what they had done?
24:31 You see, because the kid's level of regret on,
24:36 or non-regret, doesn't change what capital T truth is,
24:41 nor does it change godly morality,
24:44 'cause they're, again, using this as an example of,
24:46 oh, this family did so well,
24:48 and the student did the right thing they came back to us,
24:50 and we set ourselves up to be
24:52 the people that they came back to.
24:54 Such a horrible, awful situation.
24:56 So I have several main points on this.
24:58 The first is you can see from this video
25:00 that the staff at Andy Stanley's church are true believers, okay?
25:04 These satanic morons truly believe
25:09 that someone can be born in the wrong body, okay?
25:13 So follow me here, this is very important.
25:15 Andy Stanley's staff, especially this Brit kitchen guy,
25:18 think that somebody can be born in the wrong body.
25:21 And if they believe that,
25:24 then they truly believe that God makes mistakes.
25:28 That God is fallible.
25:32 Think about that.
25:35 One of the largest churches in America
25:37 thinks that God makes mistakes.
25:41 That when he made them male and female,
25:43 that didn't quite apply to this anecdotal example,
25:46 to this one individual child, right?
25:48 Little kid was born, I can't remember which ender
25:53 they switched from or was trying to switch from.
25:55 Born a boy, but actually they were a girl.
25:57 They knew it since they were five.
25:59 God, you swung and missed on this one.
26:01 That's Andy Stanley's church's stance, right?
26:05 Another point here is the title of today's episode, right?
26:07 You may have noticed and thought it was a typo.
26:09 Andy Stanley's church instructs children's workers to
26:12 scare, quote, affirm end of scare, quote,
26:15 scare, quote, trans kids end of scare, quote.
26:18 Okay, so why two separate sets of scare quotes?
26:21 Because affirm in their parlance
26:25 is the opposite of truth, okay?
26:27 So they are affirming something they know to be a lie, right?
26:31 You know, if their brain is functioning properly.
26:35 And also because, quote, unquote, trans kids is not a thing.
26:39 There is no such thing as a trans kid
26:43 because to be trans means you are transgender
26:46 means that you are outside of gender.
26:49 That's the ethmology of what we're talking about here.
26:51 You are outside of gender.
26:53 So what you're saying is that a kid is outside
26:56 of the normal biological chromosomal binary of male and female
27:01 which again, there's no bigger lie that Satan
27:05 can't get you to believe aside from the fact
27:07 that God doesn't exist and, you know, Jesus wasn't here
27:10 to die for your sins, then that there's no such thing
27:12 as sexual dimorphism or that sexual,
27:17 your sex, your sex can be changed in some way.
27:21 That, you know, whatever your chromosomes say,
27:24 that's not what matters, what you say
27:26 or what people say about you matters.
27:29 There's no such thing.
27:30 Kids are born either girls or boys.
27:33 There are people that have, you know, intersex
27:35 or have other issues.
27:36 I talked about this with the two male boxers
27:38 that beat up a bunch of women in the Olympics
27:39 to win gold medals and things like that.
27:41 But just because there might be ambiguous genitalia
27:44 or an internal penis or things like that,
27:45 it doesn't change that your sex is one thing or another.
27:49 Another point, and this is obvious, it should be obvious,
27:53 it is not loving to aid a gender confused child
27:58 towards their own destruction.
28:00 I use this example a lot.
28:03 If you're a small child, let's say you're a soft parenting
28:06 person, right, because you get, you know,
28:08 your theology from, you know, doofy moms on the internet.
28:11 And you, I'm never gonna yell at my kid.
28:14 I'm never gonna spank my kid.
28:15 I'm never gonna do any of those things, right?
28:18 And your kid starts taking off towards oncoming traffic,
28:21 right, you're at the park and he starts taking off
28:23 towards the highway, right?
28:25 And you decide it just wouldn't be loving
28:28 for me to yell at that child to stop them.
28:30 And I certainly am not gonna run over there
28:32 and grab them physically and stop them from doing
28:35 what they want to do, stop them from living their truth
28:38 and their truth is that they can run into traffic
28:40 and be fine.
28:41 You're a terrible person if you believe that.
28:44 You're an awful, evil, deeply confused or deeply ignorant,
28:49 fool, if you believe that.
28:52 That's not loving.
28:53 That's one of the clubs that people try to bash people with
28:56 on this LGBTQ issue is that we have to love these people
29:00 through their sin.
29:02 Now, we are to love our neighbor as ourself,
29:06 but if we are diluting ourselves,
29:08 how is it exactly that we can help our neighbor?
29:11 If we are buying into the delusion
29:13 that a little girl can become a little boy,
29:16 how exactly are we to love those people through that process?
29:19 'Cause what I can tell you is you can only love people
29:22 by telling them the truth.
29:24 If somebody is drinking themselves blind every single day
29:28 and you refuse to tell them that what they're doing
29:31 is destroying them, eventually going to kill them,
29:33 destroying all the relationships around them,
29:35 you're not loving that person.
29:36 What would be loving is to put some relational chips
29:39 in the center of the table and say,
29:41 brother, you're drinking way too much.
29:42 This is a problem and you gotta stop
29:44 and I'm here to help you.
29:45 That's what loving is.
29:47 My last point on this, Andy Stanley is a heretic.
29:51 Okay?
29:52 He is a false teacher and a deeply, deeply dangerous man.
29:57 He's a snake.
29:58 He is a wolf in sheep's clothing, okay?
30:01 I keep hearing this about pastors and about people
30:04 in public is, ah, you know, just eat the meat
30:06 and spit out the bones.
30:08 You can't do that with Andy Stanley at this point.
30:10 So I don't care if you like some of his other books
30:12 or if you've gotten some value from his teachings
30:14 in the past or something like that,
30:16 he has disqualified himself as a teacher.
30:20 Okay?
30:21 And he will give an account someday for what he's done.
30:25 And I think it is fair at this point, okay?
30:27 Because again, you can judge fruit and you can do all these things.
30:29 And it's, you know, it's really kind of like,
30:31 it's kind of touchy to get into judging salvation and all that.
30:35 I'm not convinced Andy Stanley's even a Christian, right?
30:37 Cause obviously if he's a heretic, a false teacher,
30:40 a deeply dangerous man, a snake, a wolf in sheep's clothing,
30:42 if I'm right about that, that means he's not a believer.
30:45 So there's some prayer that needs to be involved in this.
30:48 Pray that Andy Stanley comes to faith in Christ.
30:51 That's the first thing, right?
30:53 You should pray that for guys that are currently an Isis
30:55 in Boko Haram, you should pray that for, you know,
30:58 the purple haired, you know, weirdos that are going down
31:00 to the, you know, the city council meetings
31:02 and spewing all this left-wing nonsense,
31:04 you should pray for those people 'cause they're lost.
31:06 They're lost.
31:07 They need the savior.
31:08 Pray for his salvation, then pray for his repentance.
31:13 Pray that he can turn that Leviathan that he has created,
31:15 North Point Ministries and North Point Church,
31:17 that he can turn it back towards God,
31:19 back towards the Bible.
31:21 And then tertiary, you should pray that if he doesn't do
31:24 those first two things, that he should lose his ministry.
31:27 I'm not saying pray for his death or any of those things,
31:29 it's not what I'm saying, clear, to be clear.
31:31 That's not what I'm saying.
31:32 But you should pray that he loses his role at that church
31:35 and that all the people that he has romanced
31:37 and put in, you know, in a trance in his church,
31:40 that they would leave and go other places.
31:43 They can be fed by the Word of God
31:44 and fed by actual shepherds that don't just wanna sell
31:47 a whole bunch of books and don't just wanna create all these,
31:50 these big conferences and into, you know,
31:51 kind of create their own gravitational pool,
31:54 but they just wanna be led
31:55 on the process of sanctification, right?
31:57 That's what we should pray for.
31:59 So pray for Andy Stanley to become a Christian,
32:01 pray for him to repent and if not,
32:03 pray that he loses his church.
32:04 It's an incumbent, it's incumbent upon us
32:07 to do that at this point.
32:09 Like, we're gonna keep reporting on Andy Stanley
32:12 as we keep learning about things that's happening
32:13 in his church.
32:14 And if this makes you uncomfortable or squishy,
32:16 stop listening to the show.

34:38 All right guys, just getting into the quick hitters here.
34:40 And just one quick thing.
34:41 I know I just did the MountainTough ad there.
34:43 Voice has been in a little bit of a bad place.
34:45 I appreciate some of the prayers.
34:47 So I was supposed to read that ad live,
34:49 but honestly guys, like just as a little second commercial,
34:52 the MountainTough ad is literally the best fitness app
34:55 I've ever seen in my entire life.
34:57 And I've used so many different ones.
34:59 Like they've had a bunch of guys from my audience
35:01 already sign up for that six week free deal.
35:04 It's right there in the show notes guys like dude,
35:06 it's just awesome.
35:07 Like just give it a shot for me.
35:09 Do it for me, okay?
35:09 Give it a shot.
35:10 All right, let's get into the quick hitters here.
35:12 The bipartisan and feminism fueled push
35:14 to allow proxy voting in Congress.
35:16 So I literally added this one right before recording.
35:19 Today I'm recording this about six days before it comes out.
35:21 So if anything explodes, sorry,
35:23 I'll talk about it next time I guess.
35:25 But when I first heard about this,
35:27 I was like, that's kind of dumb.
35:29 And then the more I kept thinking about this story,
35:31 the more it kind of [inaudible] me off.
35:32 So this is according to NPR.
35:33 How often do I cite them on the show?
35:35 But it's important.
35:36 Two moms brought business on the floor
35:38 of the House of Representatives to a grinding halt on Tuesday.
35:41 This would have been Tuesday of last week guys.
35:42 Over their push to allow remote voting for new parents.
35:46 We said don't F with moms representative Brittany Peterson
35:49 of Colorado said on the steps of the U.S.
35:52 Capitol alongside representative Anna Paulina Luna,
35:55 a Republican from Florida.
35:56 So just quick aside, Brittany Peterson,
35:57 she sounds like a lovely lady, doesn't she?
35:59 She's a Democrat from Colorado because of course,
36:01 and then Anna Paulina Luna is a Republican from Florida
36:04 back to the NPR reporting.
36:06 We worked as a team, Luna said.
36:08 And I think that today is a pretty historical day
36:11 for the entire conference and showing that the body
36:13 has decided that parents deserve a voice in Washington
36:15 and also to the importance of female members
36:17 having a vote in Washington DC.
36:20 Luna and Peterson have been working to pass legislation
36:22 to allow new parents to vote by proxy for 12 weeks
36:25 around the birth of a new child.
36:27 Luna tried several different tactics
36:28 to get the bipartisan bill passed.
36:30 House Speaker Mike Johnson, Republican Louisiana
36:32 originally refused to put the bill on the floor.
36:34 So Luna teamed up with Democrats to bypass
36:36 the speaker and to force a vote.
36:38 So I remember I got this little thing from Fox News
36:40 that said, procedural vote is causing issues
36:44 for the Trump legislation, blah, blah.
36:45 And I read it, it was super confusing.
36:47 I was like, what exactly did they do?
36:48 But basically, Republicans sided with a bunch of Democrats
36:51 to get this on the floor because essentially they want
36:55 proxy voting for members of Congress
36:57 that are around the time they're having a baby.
36:59 So right before they have a baby, right after they have a baby,
37:02 and they get initially, I was like,
37:03 this isn't that big a deal.
37:04 I don't know why they ground the business of the house
37:09 to a halt for something like this.
37:10 But then the more I thought about it,
37:12 I was like, this is actually pretty bad.
37:13 So I wanna go to my big takeaways here, I have several.
37:15 The first is this, if you allow proxy voting for women
37:19 that just had babies, you will 100% expand that
37:23 to other things in the future because duh,
37:25 that's exactly how these things go.
37:27 You kind of sneak in what you wanna do
37:29 with kind of a hard case or a case it's easy for people
37:33 to kind of wrap their hearts around and things like that.
37:35 But then later, it'll be like, ah, well,
37:36 I sprained my ankle back in my home states,
37:39 I can't vote in Congress, I'll do it via proxy.
37:41 And you know, we'll just go right into my next big takeaway here.
37:46 If you can't show up to work 146.7 times per year,
37:50 146.7 days per year, then don't take the job.
37:53 Why 146.7?
37:55 Because that's the average number of days
37:58 that a house of representatives member has to show up
38:00 because that's how many days they're in session, okay?
38:03 That's the average number since 2001, or 2001, okay?
38:06 So almost a quarter of a century, okay?
38:09 You go to work 146.7 days a year.
38:13 How does that sound guys?
38:15 Guys work in rotating shifts.
38:17 Guys work in 300 plus days of your house, that sound, right?
38:21 Someone [inaudible] and moaning that they have to show up
38:24 to work less than 150 days per year.
38:26 Next big takeaway, if between your family, your church,
38:31 your friend group, and your $174,000 a year starting salary,
38:36 you can't figure out how to show up to work,
38:38 then don't take the job.
38:39 If you're an entry-level congress person,
38:42 you make $174,000 a year and then it goes up from there, okay?
38:46 And then of course a lot of these people get super rich
38:48 and we don't know how, right?
38:50 How are you worth millions of dollars
38:51 but you only make a couple hundred grand a year?
38:53 But you have this web of people around you, right?
38:56 You know, when someone has a baby typically,
38:58 mom or mother-in-law shows up, you know,
39:00 typically your church kind of shows up
39:02 and helps out a little bit, your friends will kind of hop in.
39:05 And if you can't make it to work with all that being in mind
39:07 'cause $174,000 a year,
39:08 I think you can afford a babysitter, right?
39:10 For a few hours or something like that.
39:13 If you can't figure it out, don't take the job.
39:15 Next big takeaway, if you can't figure out
39:17 a way to be a mom and a congresswoman,
39:20 then just choose one and shut the hell up.
39:23 So a lot of people are like, well,
39:24 if you can't choose between, you know,
39:25 if you can't figure out how to be a mom
39:26 and a congresswoman, just be a mom, you get to choose that.
39:29 Now you'd be a terrible person if you chose congress
39:32 over your children, but you to get to choose that.
39:35 We are in a free country for now.
39:37 And so you can choose that.
39:38 Choose one and then shut your stupid mouth, okay?
39:42 Either be a mom or be a congresswoman
39:44 if you can't figure out how to be both, okay?
39:46 Now, if you thought I was ranting before,
39:48 here's my actual rant time.
39:50 These women, okay, and I'm using these women
39:52 pejoratively to talk about all women,
39:54 particularly in the West, across all industries,
39:56 not just Congress.
39:57 Y'all have demanded the man's job,
40:02 but then you are simultaneously demanding
40:04 to be treated like a lady.
40:05 How exactly does that work, okay?
40:10 So basically every industry that used to be dominated
40:13 by men, so Congress obviously used to be all men,
40:15 now women are in Congress, okay?
40:17 If you wanna be a woman and be in Congress, fine.
40:19 Like, I don't care, like if that's what you wanna be
40:21 as your job, there's some people are like,
40:22 women should only work in the home.
40:23 I'm not one of those guys.
40:24 If you wanna work outside the home,
40:25 if you wanna have a business,
40:26 if you wanna do all those things, that's fine.
40:27 But just remember, when Jesus was asked by the lawyer,
40:30 you know, what is the grace of all the laws?
40:32 What did He say?
40:33 Number one, love the Lord, your God,
40:34 with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
40:36 And then He said, the second is like it.
40:37 Love your neighbor as yourself.
40:39 Now we need to talk about what it means to be a neighbor.
40:41 Who is your primary neighbor?
40:42 Your spouse, that's your primary neighbor.
40:44 Who's your secondary neighbor?
40:45 Your children, who you have to raise up
40:47 in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
40:49 Who's your tertiary neighbor?
40:50 Everybody else, including your job.
40:53 That's tertiary really important, okay?
40:55 So God, spouse, children, everything else,
40:59 and everyone else, okay?
41:01 That's what we're supposed to do.
41:02 But if you wanna put your job of a God, spouse,
41:05 and children, okay, you can do that.
41:08 But why do you want to get into all these male-dominated
41:12 spaces, you wanna be the corner office person,
41:14 you wanna be the CEO, you wanna be the one
41:16 elbowing your way into the conference
41:17 and all those types of things?
41:18 But then once you get in, you don't wanna be treated
41:20 like a man.
41:21 Because guess what?
41:24 When a woman has a baby, what does the man have to do?
41:29 Kid is about to work, right?
41:31 Some places give paternity leave,
41:33 and that's a positive thing.
41:34 But the man has to give an account someday
41:37 for how he has provided for his family.
41:39 Remember scripture, talking about,
41:41 he who does not provide for his family,
41:42 that does mean spiritually, but also means financially.
41:45 He who does not provide for his family
41:46 is worse than an unbeliever.
41:47 Where in scripture do we see that for women?
41:51 Where a woman who is a crappy mom and a crappy wife
41:53 and doesn't do well in the corner office job,
41:56 that she's gonna have to give an account someday for that,
41:58 and that if she does a crappy job and all that,
41:59 that she's worse than an unbeliever,
42:00 you won't find it 'cause it's not in there, right?
42:03 Man has to go to work.
42:04 So you wanna be in the manly space,
42:06 but then you don't wanna be treated like a man, okay?
42:08 And I just gotta be honest with you,
42:10 I am so fed up and tired with women talking about motherhood
42:13 as if they were storming the beaches of Normandy, okay?
42:16 So Bill Burr back in the day before he went
42:17 and woke in Hollywood, like he had this great joke
42:20 where these women, they're bending over at the waist
42:23 to put DVDs in the DVD player,
42:24 and they're talking as if they're a minor.
42:27 That's like under the earth,
42:29 shaking hands with the devil, getting black lung,
42:32 and that's somehow not nearly as hard as being a mother, right?
42:36 Look, being a mom is hard, right?
42:39 Most things that are worth it are hard
42:40 and early in a child's life.
42:42 It's the hardest because they need mom
42:44 more than they need anyone else, including dad, okay?
42:47 But the dad's gotta still work.
42:49 And so for you, if you want to punt on motherhood sum,
42:53 because you want to have a career,
42:56 you want to be a congressperson or all that,
42:58 okay, figure it out.
43:01 Stop complaining to me, stop telling the taxpayer
43:04 that we need to change everything that's happening
43:07 so that you don't have to show up to work and vote.
43:10 'Cause these women are like,
43:11 oh, well, you know, I want to represent my constituents,
43:13 they voted for me, they want me to vote.
43:14 Yeah, they voted for you
43:15 'cause they figured you were gonna show up to work.
43:17 You idiot?
43:18 Like what is, this isn't hard.
43:21 Like, you're not coming up with something new.
43:23 People are like, oh, we need to make Congress
43:25 a better place for women.
43:26 It's like, what else do you want us to do?
43:28 Do you want it to be incumbent upon us to provide,
43:32 you know, a nail salon so that you can get your nails
43:35 and then your hair did while you're voting
43:37 because that would be even more convenient for you
43:39 as a woman?
43:40 Like, where exactly do you want us to stop?
43:43 Okay, again, you want to be a man,
43:45 you want to do the man stuff, you want to lead like a man,
43:48 you want to dominate male dominated areas,
43:50 but you don't want to be treated like a man.
43:53 Explain it to me like I'm five.
43:54 It's ridiculous.
43:55 All right, next quick hitter here,
43:57 the results of the most expensive,
43:58 statewide judicial race in US history.
44:00 So this is according to the Daily Wire on April the 2nd.
44:03 The Wisconsin Supreme Court remains ideologically liberal
44:06 after Tuesday's election.
44:07 This was Tuesday of last week,
44:09 while Florida voters retained two seats
44:10 for Republicans in the house.
44:12 Liberal judge Susan Crawford,
44:14 best of her conservative opponent,
44:15 Brad Schmiel, Shammell, whatever,
44:18 for a seat on the Badger State highest court
44:21 described as the most expensive judicial race
44:23 in US history, Democrats and Republicans
44:25 poured millions of dollars
44:26 into the crucial swing state contest.
44:28 Similarly estimates say more than $100 million was donated.
44:32 Billionaires George Soros for Crawford
44:34 and Elon Musk for Schmiel were key contributors.
44:37 The Wisconsin Supreme Court learned
44:38 a lean conservative for years,
44:40 but a 2023 election flipped it
44:42 to a four three liberal majority.
44:44 The election was largely impacted by the left's push
44:46 to make abortion the central issue
44:48 after Roe B. Wade was overturned.
44:49 With Crawford's win, the court remains split
44:52 between four liberal justices and three conservative justices,
44:55 congressional redistricting and abortion
44:57 were both major issues in the campaign.
44:59 So here's my big takeaway on this one.
45:02 It would be foolish for conservatives and Republicans,
45:05 which are not necessarily the same thing,
45:07 to wrestle in their laurels right now,
45:09 because the left is piping mad and they are mega motivated.
45:13 So there was some concern that the Republicans
45:17 might lose those seats in Florida,
45:18 so it's good that they kept that.
45:19 But basically what we're seeing
45:21 is that the four three majority of the Supreme Court
45:23 in Wisconsin is going to allow for redistricting,
45:26 so they're going to expand certain districts
45:29 that are really, you know, chock full,
45:32 so like, you know, Wisconsin and our Wisconsin Milwaukee,
45:35 like these places that are super, super deep blue,
45:37 they wanna expand those areas out into redder areas
45:40 so that those red areas will become either purple,
45:42 which are gonna be easier for them to win, okay?
45:45 That's what's gonna happen.
45:47 We see people complaining about Elon Musk
45:49 putting a bunch of money in this,
45:50 but they don't really wanna talk about George Soros
45:53 putting money into this,
45:54 or the fact that George Soros has funded things like this
45:56 all over the country to make Supreme Courts and DA's offices
46:00 and all these things super, duper left wing.
46:02 And here's the other thing.
46:04 You kind of lose your country when the judiciary is partisan.
46:10 That's kind of what happens,
46:14 because the judiciary is supposed to be nonpartisan.
46:17 Now, obviously even on the Supreme Court,
46:19 it's like the people that were put on there
46:21 by Barack Obama all tend to vote a certain way.
46:24 The Republican appointees typically are the ones
46:26 that are all over the place, right?
46:27 But still ideologically, they tend to bend a certain way.
46:31 But this race, they took all of that facade away, okay?
46:35 This was a liberal versus a conservative,
46:37 and that's how it was billed.
46:38 That's how each of the candidates talked about it.
46:40 That's how all the majority of the campaigns
46:43 and the flyers and the commercials,
46:45 how they talked about it.
46:46 We need to keep our liberal majority.
46:49 So what these people aren't doing is they're not looking
46:51 at the constitution of the state of Wisconsin
46:54 and trying to see what the people meant when they framed that.
46:57 And then if they don't like it,
46:58 starting to judge on amendments or allow for things like that,
47:02 they're saying, here are my political priors
47:04 and I want to put that on top of what's happening
47:05 in this state where I now have power.
47:08 And look, this woman that just won Susan Crawford,
47:11 she used to be a lawyer for Planned Parenthood.
47:14 She sees a terrible person.
47:15 She's an awful terrible person, not a Christian.
47:18 We need to pray for this woman
47:19 that she converts and repents, wouldn't that be something?
47:21 She converts to Christ, repents and then all of a sudden
47:24 that majority swings back conservative.
47:27 Not, hopefully that happens, not super likely to happen.
47:30 But yeah, the amount of money that was poured into this race
47:32 tells you how important it was.
47:34 But for conservatives and Republicans,
47:36 I think a lot of them think that the Trump mandate
47:39 is bigger than it actually is.
47:41 'Cause what the Trump mandate gets you
47:42 is a couple of years without really being checked.
47:46 But here's the thing with these executive orders,
47:47 most of which I agree with what President Trump is doing.
47:51 If it's not backed up with legislation,
47:52 when you lose control of the House
47:54 or if you lose control of the House,
47:55 your next two years are gonna be bogged down
47:57 with impeachment hearings and different things like that.
48:00 It's gonna be a terrible idea.
48:02 And if you don't win the presidency again in 2028,
48:05 all those executive orders,
48:06 just like what Trump did on the first day in office
48:08 with Biden's executive orders,
48:10 they just fart in the wind, they just disappear.
48:13 And so you can win in the short term,
48:15 but in order to win in the long term,
48:17 you can't just sit back on your laurels.
48:18 So conservatives and Republicans need to make sure
48:20 that they stay aware of that.
48:22 All right, next week, we're here.
48:23 Former UFC heavyweight champion came to Alaska
48:25 as being sentenced to five years in prison.
48:27 So this is according to NBC News on March the 25th.
48:30 Former UFC champ came to Alaska as a sentence Monday
48:33 at an emotionally fraught hearing
48:34 to five years in prison for an attempted murder
48:37 of a man accused of molesting his son.
48:40 Alaska as 42 pleaded guilty to attempted murder,
48:43 felony assault and related gun charges
48:45 according to the Santa Clara District Attorney's Office.
48:48 The case stemmed from a 2022 high speed chase
48:50 in Northern California in which Velasquez
48:52 fired a handgun at a truck.
48:54 Prosecutors say Velasquez started shooting at an intersection
48:57 and then followed the truck for 11 miles through San Jose.
49:01 Three people were in the truck,
49:03 but Velasquez was targeting Harry Galarte, 46 years old,
49:06 who was accused of molesting Velasquez's son.
49:09 Galarte's stepfather was shot in the incident
49:12 in the District Attorney's Office said.
49:16 Galarte is awaiting trial on felony child molestation charges
49:19 and has denied the allegation.
49:21 The District Attorney's Office recommended
49:22 that Velasquez be sentenced to 30 years in prison
49:25 accusing him of trying to murder
49:26 all three people in the truck.
49:27 NBC Bay Area reported that Santa Clara County
49:30 Superior Court judge Arthur Boca Negra
49:32 described Velasquez's case as unique,
49:34 instead it could not be considered in a vacuum.
49:37 Velasquez's sentence includes credit for time already served,
49:40 so he is likely to spend about a year in prison
49:43 the station reported.
49:44 So he gets a five-year sentence, but time already served.
49:47 It's like 150 days or, sorry, no, it was like,
49:50 I think it was 450 days or something, he's got to serve.
49:51 So a little bit of year, a year, year and a half,
49:53 that type of thing.
49:55 So I remember when came Velasquez was first arrested.
49:58 So I actually talked about it on the show
50:02 when came Velasquez was first arrested.
50:04 And at the time, everyone in the MMA community
50:07 was coming to Kane's defense.
50:10 Because of the person he was trying to kill.
50:12 So I think his son was four or five at the time.
50:15 This was a daycare worker, a male that molested his son.
50:18 The guy gets arrested, he's released,
50:21 and as soon as Kane finds out he's released
50:23 and finds out about it, he goes to murder the guy.
50:28 He goes to an intersection, he tries to shoot him,
50:30 ends up shooting the guy's stepfather,
50:32 and then again, they go on an 11-mile high-speed chase
50:35 where Kane Velasquez could have killed tons of people, right?
50:39 Car accidents, pileups, things like that.
50:41 A bunch of people could have died because Kane Velasquez,
50:43 but they're like, "Hey, man, what would you do
50:45 if somebody had done that to your kid?"
50:47 And again, you don't know until you're in that position.
50:49 But there were people that because they agree
50:51 with who he was attacking, they thought
50:52 all of his actions were fine.
50:54 And then there was this, you know,
50:56 the continuation of the hashtag free Kane movement
50:58 after the sentencing, people couldn't believe
51:00 that he was possibly sentenced to prison for this.
51:02 But my big takeaway on this one is that
51:04 you might agree with what Kane did, okay?
51:08 You may have even done something similar
51:10 if it had been you and his shoes.
51:13 But Kane Velasquez got off easy here, and he shouldn't have.
51:17 Kane Velasquez, we know for sure was trying to kill one person,
51:20 but perhaps the prosecutor was right.
51:22 He was trying to kill up to three people that day,
51:24 murdering them in cold blood.
51:25 Now, regardless of what those people did,
51:29 that's not Kane's role to do that.
51:32 Now, had Kane found this happening in the act of it happening,
51:38 and he had beaten the guy up and the guy had happened to die,
51:41 I don't even think he gets charged with manslaughter.
51:44 Now, again, it would have been a little bit different.
51:45 He formed a heavyweight champion in the world
51:47 fighting a non-trained fighter.
51:49 You know, that can kind of get squirrely
51:51 depending on the prosecutor and he's in the state of California.
51:53 So who the heck knows how that would go?
51:55 But the thing is, is Kane Velasquez
51:57 was super in the wrong about this.
51:59 And you know who agrees with that?
52:02 Kane Velasquez does.
52:03 Kane Velasquez thinks he should be free,
52:06 but not for the same reason that the hashtag free Kane people
52:09 think he just wants to be free
52:11 because of course you would rather be free
52:12 than to be in prison in California, right?
52:15 Now, I think Kane's gonna do just fine in prison.
52:17 Just gonna go out on him here.
52:18 I don't think anyone's gonna be messing with Kane Velasquez.
52:22 But again, this was not his role to do that.
52:24 And he himself said publicly that what he did was wrong.
52:28 And so guys, if you're one of these free Kane people,
52:31 you're disagreeing with Kane Velasquez here.
52:33 Kane Velasquez now, but he's not angry now
52:36 that he's had years to think about it,
52:37 said what he did that day was wrong.
52:40 And here's another thing.
52:42 Let's say Kane's faking it.
52:44 Let's say Kane doesn't actually believe that.
52:46 Let's say Kane is just biting his time,
52:47 and when he gets out of prison,
52:48 he's gonna find that guy and he's gonna finish the job.
52:51 Are you free Kane people?
52:52 Gonna be super hashtag free Kane at that point?
52:56 Something to think about.
52:57 All right, next quick inter here,
52:58 domestic terrorist targeting Tesla drivers, vehicles,
53:00 and dealerships.
53:01 So this is according to the New York Post on March the 20th.
53:03 Three people accused of destroying Tesla cars
53:05 and charging stations are facing up to 20 years in prison
53:07 for domestic terrorism.
53:09 US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday.
53:11 The days of committing crimes without consequence of ended,
53:14 Bondi said in a statement, let this be a warning.
53:16 If you join this wave of domestic terrorism
53:18 against Tesla properties,
53:19 the Department of Justice will put you behind bars, she added.
53:22 So there's a bunch of analyzing and violence.
53:25 You've seen this.
53:25 You've seen everything from cyber trucks being keyed,
53:29 to people ramming into these things,
53:31 people firebombing Tesla dealerships.
53:33 But there's one video that I saw recently
53:36 where I'm like, this is gonna be bad
53:39 and it's going to get worse.
53:41 I saw a video of a Tesla
53:42 where this person was like in a green sedan
53:44 or something like that.
53:45 They were trying to run the Tesla off the road
53:46 and then eventually they pulled in front of the Tesla
53:48 kind of, you know, cock-eyed and then they parked.
53:50 They got out and they,
53:53 Tesla driver had their window down,
53:54 wasn't an idiot,
53:55 but they started punching the Tesla driver.
53:58 I think it was a 60 something year old woman, right?
54:00 Beat her up.
54:02 Well, we will eventually see, and I think Matt Walsh
54:04 was the first person to point this out
54:05 that I heard say it, but I think he's absolutely right.
54:07 We will 100% see a Tesla driver dragged out
54:10 of their vehicle and murdered.
54:12 It's gonna happen.
54:13 Because, you know, even though people are being arrested,
54:16 even though, you know, they're being charged
54:18 spinning upon the state they're in,
54:19 the federal charges, you know, maybe usurped,
54:21 there's some issues there.
54:23 And also we don't see any Democrats
54:24 and that's what all these people are,
54:25 every single one of these people are Democrats
54:27 that are doing these things.
54:28 A lot of these people are paid agitators
54:30 and we don't see the Democratic Party coming out and saying,
54:32 yeah, you shouldn't do that.
54:34 Stop analyzing cars, you derelict.
54:36 What is wrong with you, right?
54:38 They may not like Elon Musk.
54:40 They may like it whenever Tesla stock takes a tumble,
54:43 but to be pro-vandalism and violence, you know,
54:46 as I'm saying it, I'm like, well, let's go back to 2020.
54:49 George Floyd overdoses and dies in police custody.
54:51 And then the Democrats just sat back
54:53 and they actually Kamala Harris funded people
54:56 that were being arrested for destroying their own cities,
54:58 for hurting and killing people, you know,
55:00 funding them getting out of prison earlier, right?
55:03 Getting out of jail, bailin' 'em out, right?
55:05 So I guess we shouldn't be surprised
55:07 to see that Democrats are doing this.
55:08 And again, the violence is being orchestrated.
55:11 Right, so back in George Floyd's summer,
55:13 the summer of love with $2 billion worth of damage
55:15 and a few dozen people that were murdered,
55:17 there would be pallets of bricks that would just show up
55:19 and random street corners in major cities across the US,
55:23 which begs question, who paid for those bricks?
55:26 Who paid for the delivery?
55:28 Right?
55:29 All these people where they're just like,
55:30 oh, these are just protests that just spun up.
55:31 Nope, these are orchestrated and paid for, but guess what?
55:35 There are very low IQ copycat people
55:37 that don't understand that this violence,
55:39 that this vandalism is being orchestrated.
55:42 They're just gonna go along with it
55:44 'cause they see other idiots doing it.
55:45 And they're like, what, I'm an idiot.
55:47 Let me put on a ball of clava
55:48 and then I'll go do the exact same thing.
55:50 Now, obviously it's still rich
55:52 that we see these leftist extreme types,
55:55 these environmentalist people
55:57 attacking the creator of the most successful
55:59 electric car company in the history of mankind
56:01 and also the guy who's trying to save humanity
56:04 because of what we're doing to, quote unquote,
56:07 destroy the planet by taking humanity to Mars, right?
56:11 That's the guy they're attacking.
56:12 Why?
56:13 Because he wore a MAGA hat,
56:15 because he supported Donald Trump,
56:16 because he helped coordinate getting Donald Trump
56:18 on the Joe Rogan experience.
56:20 It's like, all right, well, we gotta tear this guy down.
56:21 So I'll go to my big takeaway on this one.
56:24 When the right boycott's a brand,
56:26 we just stopped giving them our money.
56:29 When the left boycotts a brand,
56:31 they try to physically destroy it
56:32 and the people using it.
56:34 So you wanna know about the differences
56:36 between right and left?
56:37 There's a stark difference right there.
56:39 Conservatives don't like Bud Light
56:41 because they made a custom can for Dylan Mulvaney
56:43 and they basically said, yeah, we're pro,
56:45 this old trans nonsense stuff.
56:46 You know what we did?
56:47 We stopped buying Bud Light
56:48 or if your kid rocked, you shot him.
56:50 You know, shot a bunch of cases of Bud Light, all right?
56:53 Now, my issue is with the right
56:54 when we boycott something
56:55 because we don't have the stamina for it.
56:57 So I've talked about this a lot of different times.
56:59 All you guys out there supporting Disney,
57:02 don't come to me and complain about the content
57:04 that Disney puts out there
57:05 because they have a not so secret gay agenda
57:07 and they are trying to infiltrate the mind of your child.
57:10 And here you are with your Disney Plus subscription
57:13 and you're spending thousands and thousands,
57:16 sometimes tens of thousands of dollars
57:18 to take them on a Disney cruise
57:20 or to one of their theme parks.
57:21 You're fueling the thing that you hate, you idiot.
57:25 What is wrong with you?
57:26 So that's my issue with the right
57:28 is we don't take our boycotts far enough.
57:30 I still do not support Netflix
57:31 because of the Cuties movie on there,
57:33 which is a pedophilic movie
57:35 that allows for grown men to be sexually aroused
57:38 by the dancing and goings on of minor girls, little girls, right?
57:43 But with the left, they can't be all done, right?
57:46 They take their boycott seriously.
57:48 They try to destroy the brand.
57:50 They're not just gonna start buying a different beer.
57:53 They're not just gonna get a subscription
57:55 to bent key.
57:56 They want to destroy the entire apparatus.
57:59 So again, not all worldviews are the same,
58:02 not all ways of comporting ourselves are the same.
58:04 And this is a great example
58:05 of how the left operates and what they actually believe.
58:08 All right, a couple more quick hitters left.
58:10 RFK juniors fight to keep Americans
58:11 from buying junk food with food stamps.
58:13 This is according to Fortune.
58:15 According to entrepreneur and White House advisor,
58:18 Kaylee Means, who was also present at the event,
58:20 the Trump administration is suggesting states submit waivers
58:23 to the USDA to take soda out of the supplemental
58:25 nutrition assistance program, that's food stamps,
58:28 as a first step before moving onto candy
58:30 and other confectionaries.
58:31 Kennedy is working to convince other state governors
58:33 to take similar action according to Means.
58:35 Bobby is talking to at least 15 governors
58:38 to convince them to take more similar action Means said.
58:41 HHS does not have the authority to approve these waivers,
58:45 but Kennedy is lending his political cachet
58:48 to build momentum.
58:50 So a lot's been made about this.
58:51 How dare they change this program and all that?
58:53 But did you guys know that the number one product
58:57 bought with food stamps by a wide margin is super sugary soda?
59:02 Did you know that?
59:03 My big takeaway on this one.
59:05 No, RFK junior is not trying to make it
59:08 to where you can't buy junk food with your money.
59:12 He's trying to make it to where you can't buy junk food
59:16 with my money.
59:17 See the difference?
59:20 Because people that are on food stamps,
59:23 those food stamps are provided by my tax paying dollars,
59:27 my dollars, okay?
59:29 And most of these people have income from other places.
59:33 So what RFK is saying is, okay, this money, these stamps,
59:36 this allowance essentially that you're given
59:39 from the US federal government paid for by me,
59:41 you can't buy crap with it.
59:44 Because guess what?
59:45 You buy crap like, you know, Dr. Pepper and talkies
59:49 and gas station donuts and gummy bears.
59:53 Guess what also that's gonna cause?
59:55 That's gonna cause you to have a bunch of health issues,
59:58 right?
59:58 Regardless of your genetic structure,
1:00:00 that's gonna cause major health issues for you.
1:00:03 And then guess what?
1:00:04 We're expected to pay for your healthcare, right?
1:00:08 This universal healthcare push,
1:00:10 Obamacare, all those types of things.
1:00:11 So the federal government is aiding and abetting you
1:00:15 and destroying your physical health.
1:00:16 And then the taxpayers are coming and provide you
1:00:19 with the insurance so that you can go get treatment
1:00:22 for something that you could have prevented yourself, okay?
1:00:25 So I am super pro at RFK is trying to do here.
1:00:29 Yeah, if we're providing you food stamps,
1:00:30 you have to eat real food.
1:00:32 Like, let's just make it that easy.
1:00:34 They're called food stamps, you have to buy food.
1:00:37 Doritos are not food.
1:00:38 Can you eat them and not die immediately?
1:00:40 Yes.
1:00:42 But it is poison.
1:00:44 If your diet is Doritos, you will not make it far.
1:00:47 But yeah, if you wanna buy chicken, beef, broccoli,
1:00:52 bottled water, something like that, sure.
1:00:55 I am totally fine helping fund that.
1:00:57 Now, I'm kind of anti food stamps to begin with
1:01:00 because I'm okay with temporary food stamps.
1:01:02 Hey, let's get you back on your feet.
1:01:04 But hey, we're gonna have you on food stamps
1:01:05 for decades at a time.
1:01:07 Government assistance for decades at a time.
1:01:09 It's part of the reason why we're technically
1:01:10 already bankrupt as a country.
1:01:11 But no, he's not trying to make it where you can't buy,
1:01:14 junk food with your own money.
1:01:15 He's trying to make it to where you can't buy it
1:01:16 with my money and that is totally super duper fair.
1:01:20 All right, last one here.
1:01:21 The sports moment of the year, okay?
1:01:25 Now, I wanted to talk about this on a previous episode,
1:01:28 but it kind of ran out of time.
1:01:30 And I was supposed to have Mark Wayne Mullen on here.
1:01:32 Dude's been pretty busy up there at the Senate.
1:01:33 You know, Trump hasn't run in all over the place
1:01:35 so I was gonna talk to him about it.
1:01:37 But I do wanna set up what I'm talking about here
1:01:39 a little bit.
1:01:40 So just in case some of you have been living under a rock
1:01:42 and haven't seen any of the clips or anything like that, okay?
1:01:44 So let's go back to the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo,
1:01:47 which technically happened in the summer of 2021.
1:01:50 Gable Stevenson, not Stevenson, right?
1:01:52 How many people have messed that up?
1:01:54 Gable Stevenson won the 125 kilogram gold medal
1:01:58 and freestyle wrestling, okay?
1:01:59 This was after he won the NCAA National Championship
1:02:02 earlier that same year, okay?
1:02:04 But he didn't just win the Olympic gold medal.
1:02:07 He wanted in absolutely spectacular and dramatic fashion.
1:02:12 So in the clip I'm about to show you,
1:02:13 Gable is down three to George's Geno Petrias Vili.
1:02:18 I practiced it and then I messed it up.
1:02:21 Petrias Vili, okay?
1:02:23 Geno Petrias Vili with less than 20 seconds left on the clock.
1:02:26 Okay, down three, less than 20 seconds left on the clock.
1:02:29 Okay, Petrias Vili was the defending Olympic champ.
1:02:32 And here's the thing, in this particular sport,
1:02:34 a takedown at the time is only worth two points.
1:02:37 He's down three with 20 seconds left to go.
1:02:39 So he's about to lose.
1:02:41 Geno's about to repeat as the Olympic champion.
1:02:43 And then this happens.
1:02:44 Shh, just.
1:02:49 Nice, George, and just diving in on the leg,
1:02:54 locking the leg down.
1:02:56 Experience, patience there from a guy
1:03:00 who's been in the heat of the battle
1:03:01 at these big international moments
1:03:03 more than the young American,
1:03:05 but now two there for Steveson.
1:03:07 Cutting him loose to come back to the center.
1:03:11 Has to have it here. - For five seconds.
1:03:13 - Fake snap, fake snap, fake snap, fake snap, fake snap,
1:03:18 fake snap, go get it, go get it, go get it.
1:03:21 - Trying to come around.
1:03:22 - Get the two, it's put on the board.
1:03:24 Gable, Steveson at the final second,
1:03:28 grabs gold for Team USA!
1:03:31 - All right, so for those of you that are just listening,
1:03:34 like he gets a takedown,
1:03:35 which is kind of a meaningless takedown, right?
1:03:38 And then he cuts him, right?
1:03:39 So under 10 seconds left to go.
1:03:41 And then he shoots, he keeps going,
1:03:44 and he finishes the takedown
1:03:46 with like less than a second left to go.
1:03:48 I mean, it was absolutely insane.
1:03:50 I remember watching it and just absolutely losing my mind
1:03:52 on episode 220 of this podcast,
1:03:54 go all the way back to 220.
1:03:56 Now that was what I said was my highlight
1:03:58 of the Tokyo games, my absolute highlight.
1:04:00 It was absolutely incredible.
1:04:01 And Gable was riding high after that.
1:04:03 He signed with the WWE, didn't quite work out.
1:04:05 He doesn't really have the personality for it.
1:04:07 He tried out for the NFL,
1:04:08 like I think it was with the Buffalo Bills,
1:04:10 and spring training a little bit,
1:04:11 not spring training, that's baseball.
1:04:13 But in their off-season stuff,
1:04:14 and he didn't make the cut or whatever.
1:04:16 But then a couple of years later,
1:04:18 decided he wanted to go back to the University of Minnesota
1:04:20 to compete again, he had another year of eligibility.
1:04:22 So he wanted to go back
1:04:23 and potentially win his third national title.
1:04:26 So I guess, and again, with the NIL and all that,
1:04:28 he was gonna make a bunch of money doing all that.
1:04:31 And he just dominated all season, okay?
1:04:33 All season, completely undefeated.
1:04:35 But not even that, he never gave up a single takedown.
1:04:38 And even if you're dominant as a wrestler,
1:04:40 if you don't give up a single takedown
1:04:42 in an entire season, like that's unheard of.
1:04:45 He crushed the Big Ten tournament to become champion.
1:04:48 And here he is in the NCAA tournament.
1:04:50 He just crushes his way all the way to the final.
1:04:52 Actually going back to the Big Ten tournament,
1:04:53 I think he was wrestling the heavyweight from Ohio State.
1:04:55 At one point, he's close to the edge of the mat.
1:04:56 He just kind of picks up the guy
1:04:57 and like throws him off the mat.
1:05:00 Like I'm just like, ah, bored, bored with you.
1:05:02 Go over there, okay?
1:05:03 So now we get to the final, okay?
1:05:05 The final is between him and Oklahoma State's
1:05:07 Wyatt Hendrickson, okay?
1:05:09 So Hendrickson had previously wrestled
1:05:10 at the Air Force Academy for four years.
1:05:13 So he got an extra year of eligibility because of COVID
1:05:15 and he was selected for the world class athlete program
1:05:18 at the Air Force, which allowed him to delay
1:05:20 his military service 'cause I forget what rank he is
1:05:23 'cause he's already in the military technically.
1:05:25 So he transfers to Oklahoma State
1:05:26 for his last year of eligibility.
1:05:28 He also went undefeated during the season.
1:05:31 He gets undefeated through the postseason tournament
1:05:33 and now he's in the NCAA tournament
1:05:36 and he makes it all the way through that tournament
1:05:38 and now he's in the final,
1:05:39 the national final against Gable Stevenson,
1:05:41 still with zeros in the lost column, okay?
1:05:44 So it's undefeated versus undefeated,
1:05:46 but no one was given Wyatt Hendrickson any chance here.
1:05:50 This is Gable Stevenson.
1:05:51 I remember watching it on Saturday night by myself
1:05:54 on the back porch with a lovely cigar,
1:05:56 undaunted-dot-life/ cigars with daunted-dot-life/ cigars.
1:06:00 And I almost went to bed 'cause I was like,
1:06:02 "Ah, you know, I kind of watched the matches I wanted to watch,
1:06:04 but hey, this is the last time Gable Stevenson's ever
1:06:06 gonna wrestle, you know, it's great to watch greatness."
1:06:08 And so I was like, "I just stayed up and watch it."
1:06:10 So Gable walks out first
1:06:12 and they had a really cool walk out for the wrestlers.
1:06:14 And then we've got Wyatt Henderson, he walks out.
1:06:17 He's got like a more than conquerors, like, you know,
1:06:20 Jesus, you know, shirt thing, American flag draped
1:06:22 over his shoulders and all that.
1:06:23 And he starts to walk around the mat
1:06:24 and Gable Stevenson gets in his face.
1:06:27 So Wyatt just said recently on an aerial Hulani show,
1:06:30 like, "Hey, what did Gable say to you?"
1:06:32 And he's like, "Look, I was in the zone,
1:06:33 it was real loud, I couldn't really hear him."
1:06:35 But I think he said something along the lines of like,
1:06:38 "I've got the gold medal, like, you can't wear that American flag
1:06:41 unless you win the gold medal and Olympics like that type of thing."
1:06:44 And you're talking to a dude that's in the military,
1:06:45 that's an undefeated wrestler.
1:06:46 And you're basically saying, "You shouldn't be here,
1:06:48 this is my mat."
1:06:49 And also that's my flag.
1:06:51 Yikes, fighting words, okay?
1:06:53 Donald Trump is there in the front row,
1:06:55 he's there with Mark Wayne Mullen.
1:06:56 Donald Trump was supposed to leave like two or three matches
1:06:58 before, but he's like, "What are you talking about?
1:07:00 I'm gonna watch the entire thing."
1:07:01 You wanted to watch the last match
1:07:03 because there was a kid who's technically in the Air Force
1:07:06 at the last match, like you have Jordan Burrows
1:07:09 and Daniel Cormier on the call.
1:07:11 And by the way, they did a spectacular job.
1:07:13 Like those two, like the guy who was doing color
1:07:15 whoever was doing the color commentary,
1:07:17 he would basically start at the beginning of the match
1:07:19 and then he would just turn it over to Jordan Burrows,
1:07:21 very decorated gold medal wrestler
1:07:23 from a national champion from Nebraska
1:07:26 and then Daniel Cormier, an accomplished wrestler
1:07:28 and former UFC lightweight and heavyweight champ
1:07:29 in his own right, they did spectacular.
1:07:31 So let's go to the beginning of the match.
1:07:33 So Wyatt from the very beginning is incredibly aggressive
1:07:36 from the very beginning, he's shooting a lot,
1:07:38 he's kind of like fainting and like setting up shots
1:07:40 and all that.
1:07:41 That doesn't really happen with Gable Steves
1:07:43 and very much because most people get in there
1:07:44 and they're like, "Oh shoot, please don't get embarrassed
1:07:46 in front of my entire family and all these fans," right?
1:07:49 But Gable was still in control, we go to the third period,
1:07:53 Gable is up four to two, okay?
1:07:55 Now, this year in the NCAA and moving forward,
1:07:58 takedowns are not, we're two points, right?
1:08:00 There were three points for a takedown.
1:08:02 But Gable Steveson's up four to two
1:08:05 and he hasn't given up a takedown all year, okay?
1:08:07 So this match is essentially over.
1:08:09 But I wanna go to a clip here of the final 30 seconds
1:08:13 of this match between Gable Steveson and Wyatt Hendrickson.
1:08:16 30 seconds left.
1:08:18 Oh, he's still at the side, he's tied up.
1:08:21 Oh, look at him get big here.
1:08:23 Oh, my God.
1:08:24 It's going to double.
1:08:25 It's going to double, it's going to double, it's going to double.
1:08:28 Oh, my God.
1:08:29 Can you believe this?
1:08:32 Can you do it with the three?
1:08:33 Gable by Russell.
1:08:35 Here, let me see if it's going to move.
1:08:37 It's 30 seconds.
1:08:38 This could be it.
1:08:39 Oh, my goodness.
1:08:40 The biggest out of the second.
1:08:42 If the history of the NCAA, could this be it?
1:08:45 Yes, I'm hitting, pass, I got it.
1:08:51 Guys, like mind blowing, and if you're just listening to this
1:08:54 and you don't know what happened, so Wyatt Hendrickson
1:08:57 does an amazing faint at around 30 seconds left,
1:09:00 then he shoots a double leg.
1:09:03 But immediately Gable kind of stuffs it,
1:09:05 and you can see Wyatt Hendrickson's left hand kind of come off
1:09:09 of Gable Steveson's right leg.
1:09:11 And at that point, I'm like, okay, he's stuffed a takedown.
1:09:14 But Wyatt Hendrickson didn't stop trying to finish the takedown.
1:09:18 He just cut the corner, cut the corner, cut the corner,
1:09:21 cut the corner, finishes the takedown.
1:09:24 Like I literally just gave myself chills
1:09:25 like 'cause I can remember like being back on my porch
1:09:27 and seeing this.
1:09:28 When he, when he finished the takedown,
1:09:31 I'm literally sitting on my back porch.
1:09:32 I got like Crocs on or all that.
1:09:34 I stood up so fast, two things happen.
1:09:36 Both of my Crocs came off and I pulled a muscle on my stomach.
1:09:41 Okay, I was like, oh, oh my gosh.
1:09:44 Gable Steveson just got taken down.
1:09:46 Oh my gosh, holy crap, there's only 14 seconds left on the clock.
1:09:50 So you can see Gable, he's kind of shocked.
1:09:52 Like he's there, he's on all fours and he's like,
1:09:55 he's kind of shocked and you see him kind of look up
1:09:57 and he looks at the clock and there's like 13 seconds left,
1:10:00 12 seconds left and he's like, oh shoot, I gotta stand up.
1:10:02 So again, at this point, Wyatt Hendrickson is up one point.
1:10:05 So if Gable can just get to his feet and escape, it's tied.
1:10:09 Okay, it's tied five to five
1:10:10 and it's gonna go into overtime.
1:10:12 And I'm just gonna tell you,
1:10:14 you got a one in a million shot
1:10:16 to take Gable Steveson down one time.
1:10:18 I don't know what the odds would be
1:10:20 to take him down twice in a few minutes.
1:10:23 Like, when's the last time Gable Steveson was taken down
1:10:26 even in practice, right?
1:10:28 I know he's grappled a lot with Gordon Ryan and John Jones.
1:10:31 Have those guys been able to take him down?
1:10:32 Like, I don't know.
1:10:34 And then he kind of stands up, he tries to like turn
1:10:37 and face Hendrickson and Wyatt just squeezes
1:10:41 and kind of like gets higher than him and tilts him back over.
1:10:44 The match is over.
1:10:45 Wyatt Hendrickson beats the defending gold medalist,
1:10:48 or he beats the gold medalist from the Olympics,
1:10:51 a two-time champion denying Gable Steveson
1:10:55 his third national championship.
1:10:57 Absolutely insane.
1:10:58 My mind explodes.
1:10:59 My phone starts exploding.
1:11:01 Like, it was just absolute insanity, absolute insanity.
1:11:05 After the match was over,
1:11:07 Wyatt Hendrickson goes over to the edge of the mat,
1:11:09 makes eye contact with Trump, salutes him.
1:11:12 Like, and Trump salutes him back.
1:11:14 He gets off the mat and goes down to Trump.
1:11:17 And, you know, they hug and they have a moment,
1:11:20 super historic to beat Gable Steveson.
1:11:24 To get Gable's credit, well, sorta to his credit.
1:11:27 When they got to the podium and he got his second place trophy,
1:11:29 he got him, you know, slapped Wyatt on the back,
1:11:31 said good job, he was all smiles.
1:11:32 Like, a day later on social media, he's like,
1:11:34 "Hey, man, I'm super blessed, things are fine.
1:11:36 "Hey, at least you watched, right, that type of thing."
1:11:38 But it's like, "Hey, bro,
1:11:40 "maybe you shouldn't talk so much trash before the match.
1:11:43 "Maybe you shouldn't have told an American, right,
1:11:45 "a guy in the Air Force that he can't wear the American flag
1:11:48 "because you're the Olympic champ.
1:11:49 "Maybe you shouldn't have done that, right?"
1:11:51 He got served, not just humble pie.
1:11:53 He got like a humble buffet in that exact moment.
1:11:55 Wyatt Hendrickson was also named the Hodge Trophy winner.
1:11:57 Some people thought I was gonna go to that kid from Penn State
1:12:00 who won his fifth national title 'cause of COVID.
1:12:02 You know, all the records are completely jacked up now.
1:12:04 But I'll just go to my big takeaway here
1:12:05 as we wrap up the episode.
1:12:07 I am calling it right now.
1:12:09 Again, I'm sitting here recording this on April the fourth.
1:12:12 Okay, you guys are hearing this on April the whateverth, right?
1:12:15 I'm calling it right now.
1:12:17 That will be the sports moment of 2025.
1:12:20 We got a lot of things left to go, right?
1:12:23 As I'm sitting here, you know,
1:12:25 we don't know who's gonna win the final four, right?
1:12:28 You know, we don't know if Cooper Flag
1:12:29 is gonna be the super Duke freshman and gonna win.
1:12:31 We don't know that.
1:12:32 We don't know if the Los Angeles Dodgers are gonna,
1:12:35 you know, spend a billion dollars and then win 120 regular
1:12:37 season games and then sweep the playoffs
1:12:39 and win the World Series.
1:12:40 We don't know if the Thunder are actually any good,
1:12:42 even though I think the Thunder are kind of like
1:12:44 the 2001 Seattle Mariners
1:12:45 or where they're gonna win a whole bunch of games
1:12:47 in the regular season and then, you know,
1:12:49 end up getting bounced in the playoffs
1:12:50 'cause they don't have any killers on the team.
1:12:51 Who the heck knows?
1:12:52 Maybe the Thunder when their first championship.
1:12:54 Maybe there's something crazy that happens
1:12:55 in the world of soccer, even though nobody here cares.
1:12:57 Maybe something's gonna happen, you know,
1:13:00 with an NFL game, maybe there's gonna be a record
1:13:01 that's gonna be broken.
1:13:02 Maybe we're gonna see some sort of crazy Heisman moment.
1:13:05 Maybe there's gonna be this tremendous knockout,
1:13:07 one of the best knockouts we've ever seen,
1:13:08 one of this tremendous upsets in all these different things.
1:13:11 Maybe Tom Aspen all is gonna be John Jones
1:13:13 if they actually ever fight that, right?
1:13:16 Their Wyatt Hendrickson is the single best sports moment
1:13:21 of 2025 and if I'm wrong, I will update you,
1:13:26 but I don't think I'm gonna be wrong.
1:13:28 All right, guys, that'll do it for today.
1:13:29 Before we go, we are gonna do a quick resilience boost
1:13:31 out on down to the life of missions,
