Class Warfare at Golden Corral 00:10:25
Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk show, Raheem Kassam and Jack Pasobic join us.
We talk about Grud Gutfeld, Golden Corral, class warfare, South Africa, train derailments, and a little bit of a revival.
Email me your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com, and subscribe to our podcast.
Buckle up, everybody.
Here we go.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
I want to thank Charlie.
He's an incredible guy.
His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
That's why we are here.
Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

Joining us now is Raheem Kassam.
Raheem, welcome back to the program.
Lots of topics we can cover.
The one in particular I want to start with is this, the daily show creator freaks out over Greg Gutfeld's ratings, but says the audience is gross and insults Golden Corral.
I've always said Golden Corral is actually largely underrated, but that's a separate issue for a different time.
Let's play Cut 97 and I'll have you respond, Raheem.
Look, here's what I always say.
He ain't funny to me, but we see that there's an audience out there for shit like that.
There's an audience out there for shit like Joe Rogan.
There's an audience out there of shitty people.
If 70 million, however, 70 million people voted for Trump like Fox News, those people are going to laugh at that we think is up.
Is he funny?
Not to me.
But he makes jokes about shit that I care about, which is gross.
I think that whole situation is gross, but there's a market for it.
The bottom line is there's a market for it.
You know what else I think is gross?
Golden Corral.
But like people like it.
Now, I give it 50-50 odds that Greg Guttfeld does his show live from Golden Corral tonight.
But Raheem, your response.
Yeah, you know, I put this up on the sub stack because I just thought it was one of these amazing kind of Deplorables 2.0, or I suppose we're on to, you know, Deplorables 10,000.0 moments where you have this.
It's amazing to me, and I'm fascinated by, especially what you were talking about in the lead-in to this.
You know, if somebody needs a bit of humility and they step away from their own narcissism, it's somebody like Liz Winstead, who, as you say, co-created the daily show, fancies herself as a comedian, has tried her hand at stand-up, I will add not particularly successfully, but has the audacity, the temerity to sneer at audiences who, as you say, and as she said, go to Golden Corral.
Now, I've never been to Golden Corral, but you can bet your bottom dollar I will be going to Golden Corral after that anti-endorsement by Liz Winstead.
And I looked into the company, by the way, which does Does huge amounts of work for veterans, charitable work for veterans.
And it seemed particularly mean-spirited to go after that.
But the sneering on all of this that you see from this, this, I mean, I can't believe what this woman looks like, by the way, looks like Larry David's dad in Kirby Enthusiasm, right?
With those big thick glasses and has the audacity to talk about taste and what's gross or not.
Well, let's talk.
I've decided to go into her history a little bit.
She's the archbishop.
Please continue.
Yeah, I went and saw an interview with her from back in 2013 where she said that her favorite food was spaghetti and meatballs on a stick, where she confessed that a lot of the times her breakfast was just three doughnuts from the box of Krispy Kremes in the MSNBC green room and late night bath snacks, which are obviously fried in all kinds of seed oils that have been sitting there for weeks on end.
So again, I don't think she has a particularly good frame of reference for taste, but that leads us on to the bigger part of this, right?
She says that she wouldn't go in the full clip, she says she wouldn't go on shows like that, and I'm sure shows like yours, because what it leads to is trolls on her Twitter account.
Well, think about it this way: if you're a comedian, probably one of the best things that you can gauge your own success by is hecklers, whether you get hecklers and how you deal with the hecklers.
And I think it just speaks so much to who these people are that they're afraid to go on television shows, interviews with counter-programming, the programming in their head, right?
Because they're afraid of a few people making fun of them in response on Twitter.
Listen, I've been on CNN.
I've been in the heat of those, you know, panel discussions where 15 people are screaming at you all at once and you kind of have to hold your breath and take a step back and assess the battlefield, the rhetorical battlefield, and make your point and make it, you know, make it still with a smile in your face.
And the fact of the matter is here, people like Liz Winstead are, you know, the hardcore progressive extremist left, you know, they can deal with nothing in the shape of scrutiny and they certainly can't deal with the heckles.
And let's dissect her little quip at the end where she says, oh, yeah, there's an audience for Golden Corral.
This is a class issue, is what she's really starting.
That's the lines that she's drawing.
As if you can't go to Chipriani every night for dinner and afford $38 for, you know, a rather average tasting Barata appetizer, that I might say.
And now I'm going to get all the hate mail from the Chipriani crowd, which is great.
I actually would love to get, I think Chipriani is largely overrated.
And I know that's like a hate crime to say that.
Anyway, the portions are small and the prices are high.
It's like eating at a kosher restaurant.
It's twice the price and half the taste.
And a religious Jew will tell you that.
So, but the point is that Golden Corral is a good place to eat.
I wouldn't necessarily do Valentine's Day there, but Lord knows that I went to Golden Corral many times when I was doing AAU basketball tournaments.
But the point is that it's class, right, Rahim?
Which is that if you are below a certain income level, you are not as enlightened as I am.
Yeah, and the amazing thing about it, as we know, is that money does not buy class.
Money does not buy taste.
Money does certainly not buy manners.
It doesn't buy security in yourself.
It doesn't buy happiness.
It doesn't buy godliness.
And it's fascinating to me that this person goes up there and makes, as you say, this incredible class distinction.
We have dealt with class politics in my country in the United Kingdom for time immemorial, right?
And now you see this class division coming here.
The thing is, and I hate to get this arcane about it, but it's the people who think that foie gras is fancy.
Now, I love foie-grash.
I'm from Europe.
You know, you can get it for $5, a massive tin in France.
And it's peasant food, right?
It's meant to be just a loaf of bread and some foie-rough, and you just eat it for sustenance.
It tastes good.
It comes from the farm.
And then what happens is people like Liz Winstead, like you say, they go into these fancy restaurants where they're served this amount of food and it costs $500.
That's exactly right.
By the way, we've tried it.
This is not an envy thing.
I've conjured by Liz.
I completely agree.
Yes, this is keep going.
No, I mean, I happen to have been blessed to have a pretty amazing decade and exposed to a lot.
A lot of this is overrated.
Let's just be honest.
A lot of the delicacies of the ruling class.
That's what you're paying for.
It's like modern art.
It's like a signed urinal, and you're like, that's really ugly.
Can't say that.
Just enjoy it.
Shut up.
Okay.
Enjoy it.
I would rather go to Outback.
I'm sorry.
I'm glad you picked up on that because, you know, this goes to how they live their lives.
It's everything about them, right?
It's a farce.
It's consumerism gone mad.
You know, we all believe in market, economics, and the ability of real capitalists to earn a real dime and to spend your money how you like to spend your money.
But this goes to the heart of who they are as people, which is it's all a facade.
It's all designed to make themselves feel better about themselves.
And that would be fine if they're keeping it to themselves, but they're not.
They take it that extra step further and they go, and that makes me better than you.
Well, look, again, I've never eaten a golden corral.
I don't suspect that this massive company that feeds people for relatively good prices is, you know, oat cuisine.
But again, you know, imagine going on camera like she did and effectively lecturing people that they're not as good as you because they can't afford the type of food that you sometimes eat.
I think it's gross.
I think she's really the gross one.
And I think she is really who Hillary Clinton wanted to be.
That's exactly right.
And she's not funny and she has contempt.
And that is at the base of the modern left is contempt for other people.
And that is a colonialist belief, actually.
These are the modern day colonialists, where if this woman was in charge of anything, goodness, she isn't.
She would roll the tanks in and obliterate the Walmarts and the Golden Corrals and erect some sort of really sad vegan restaurant portfolio.
And yeah, I'm sorry.
I'm going to keep on defending people's rights to go to Golden Corral.
I didn't think that was what I was going to be talking about today, but I guarantee you this.
I'll close this.
If you go to the Golden Corral and just ask an average person three basic questions, like, is there a difference between man and woman?
Like, is America a decent country?
And do you think we should have borders?
90%, I'm sure, would agree with you.
You go to Chipriani in New York City, it'd be the opposite.
A lot more wisdom in a buffet line at Golden Corral than getting some sort of overrated $95 pasta dish in central Manhattan.
America has always been the world leader in invention, innovation, and technology.
Now China is poised to take its place as the next world leader in technology.
The Innovation Race with China 00:05:22
Don't miss the shocking new movie, Innovation Race, available now at salemnow.com.
It exposes the truth, how China is exploiting weaknesses in our U.S. patent system, stealing our inventions and technology, and we are helping them do it.
China could soon control all of our 5G technology, which will eventually control all of our devices.
With the flip of a switch, the Chinese Communist Party could turn off our power grids, remotely drive your car off your road, or turn off your pacemaker.
Innovation Race is a clarion call to action.
Watch it today on SalemNow.com.
Unless we take a stand, China will become the next world leader, threatening our economic and military security and the very idea of American greatness.
In today's high technology world, there is no prize for second place.
See it for yourself.

Okay, I do want to play this piece of tape here, and we can get a reaction.
Here it is.
Play cut 86 of the mentally disturbed person who runs, I get like rear admiral for the Navy on Florida's parental rights and education bill.
This person really needs help.
I don't say that lightly.
I think I would love to see Richard Levine go to the revival.
I think it could do a lot of good for him.
He needs a soul reborn, and only Jesus can do that.
He's a very sick person.
Play cut 86.
One example would be the quote-unquote, don't say gay law in Florida.
This law forbids kids, essentially, from talking to these people.
And also, it means that if you tell a teacher, the teacher has to tell the parent.
And so it really is a gag rule.
It's a gag law to prevent kids from accessing supportive adults.
Now, look, if there was a word that he should never say, gag would be on the list.
Raheem, your response.
My response is in my eyes.
I mean, it's so hard to try and be charitable.
You know, we have to try and be charitable in everything we do and in every person and start with forgiveness, right, in our hearts.
And it's so very difficult when you see something like that, when in reality, you know what that person is saying.
That person is saying, hey, it's getting harder for us to groom children.
You know, this makes it marginally more difficult for us to shove our ideology, our sexual ideology down the throats of impressionable, not just young adults, but children, children.
And I think I had this conversation last night with friends where we're sort of going through some of what Senator Rubio is doing and some of the rules surrounding how long you have to have identified as one gender or the other to serve in the U.S. military.
And it's like we bend over backwards to deal with what is effectively a malign mental illness writ large across the Western world right now.
And instead of trying to get to the bottom of it, and there is a very definable rationale behind where a lot of this stuff is coming from, a scientific rationale, by the way, where a lot of this stuff is coming from.
Instead of dealing with that, instead of trusting the science, we are asked to trust emotion.
We are asked to lead with the thing that they exploit in us most, which again is our forgiving natures.
And then, again, I mean, I use the word audacity a lot.
And then we have these people going up there and having the audacity to pretty much say it like it is.
They dance around it a little bit for the cameras, but really, I mean, you said you shouldn't use the word gag there.
I'm pretty certain that actually in that person's head, they're going, you know, I got that one over.
It's, you know, you want to talk about gross to carry on the theme of the last segment.
It's gross, but it requires really, really being grown up in our conversation about this.
And the grown-up part of all of this, Charlie, is to say no, right?
It's the Chad meme.
It's not to baby them.
It's not to mollycoddle them.
It's not to say, oh, poor you, you don't know what gender you are.
And dear God, man, what are you wearing a skirt for?
But it's just to say no.
Thou shalt not pass.
And I think we have to dig our staffs in the ground and be a little firmer about that.
Yeah, and we have an entire ruling class that is afraid to say no.
And that is the mark that they've never actually matured and also that they do not have intestinal fortitude, gumption, a spine, or testosterone to stand up against evil.
What is the ultimate motivation of the grooming of children?
That's a deep topic, but go there if you wish.
Yeah, I don't know if I could do it in one minute, but I have been reading a lot about the difference now between transhumanism, which I think a lot of people have gotten their heads around the last couple of years, and this new idea of anti-humanism, the idea that the species must go extinct to save the planet.
And this is actually becoming a bigger and bigger thing in academic circles and philosophical circles on the left now.
Arizona Heat and My Pillow 2.0 00:02:08
So I am working on a new substack about that.
It's less funny than the Liz Winstead one, but I'd be happy to come back and talk about it with you at length when it's fully fleshed out.
It's something that I'm trying to get my head around fully now as well.
I would enjoy that.
And it's nothing new.
I mean, you read back to Greek philosophers used to admonish religious Jewish circles because they didn't kill all their children.
Some Greek philosophers wrote at length, who are these Jews that allow the ugly and the deformed children to live?
What motivates them?
They couldn't believe it.
Because in pagan Greek culture, the idea that every child is a gift from God, you don't derive that from worshiping the rivers.
Raheem, thank you so much.
Appreciate you.
Thanks for having me.
Cheers.
Have a good one.

Jack Pasobic joins us now.
You guys should check out his podcast.
He also has a show that airs every evening on Real America's Voice at 9 p.m. Eastern.
Is that right, Jack?
It's 10 p.m. Eastern.
It kind of floats a little bit, but usually 10 p.m.
You see, one of the issues with living in Arizona is...
Oh, you got that Arizona thing.
Racial Lines in Government Revival 00:15:34
Yeah.
I get text all the time.
Well, Charlie, you're on Pacific time.
Well, I said, it depends.
It's very unusual.
And for most people in Arizona, it doesn't mean a lot because you just go through your life and the clocks never change in Arizona.
But if you configure your entire work schedule and your career off Eastern time, for literally four months of the year, you have a certain flow of life.
And then for eight months of a year, you have a different one.
So it's coming up in a couple of weeks with the time.
I just do it the easy way.
I just live on the East Coast.
There you go, Jack.
You found the real hack.
Okay, so Jack, if I were to just isolate you and let's say that you had a traumatic brain injury and you woke up in a hospital and you hadn't watched any news for two weeks and I said...
So like John Fetterman.
Yeah, well, similar, right, but far more sentient and able to understand information.
But let's just say you had nothing, or you went into the wilderness for two weeks.
You came back.
I said, hey, Jack, let me just lay out these facts for you.
There are hazardous materials and trains being derailed.
There are UFOs flying over the American homeland that we're shooting down.
We can't have eggs.
We have food shortages, baby formula shortages, supply chain shortages.
You'd say, are we at war?
So, Jack, let me ask you a question.
What the heck is going on?
So, you know, Charlie, what we're going through, and we've been covering this on the program recently, and I just call it the collapse of complex systems.
And one of the things that I'm in a lot of trouble right now for on the internet, which is which is usual for me, is that I was using South Africa as an example of what we've been doing because they're about 20 or 15 to 20 years ahead of us on this path.
Because what we've been doing, Charlie, for a long time now is promoting political agendas ahead of merit, ahead of skill, ahead of quality.
And we are getting to the point now where we, because we've been introducing work quotas and we've been introducing these new ideas.
We have a transportation secretary who was given his job because of his sex life, who has no qualifications whatsoever for that position.
We're now in a position in our country where everything seems like it's just falling apart.
All of the systems, the routine maintenance, the trains can't seem to be running properly.
And you talk to the left and they'll say, oh, this is because of greed.
This is because of capitalism.
What's the capitalism?
Where's the profit incentive for everything falling apart?
No, that doesn't explain it.
And so the reason that I brought up South Africa is because if you've just seen a couple of days ago, South Africa's president just announced that they are in an energy crisis.
Their entire energy grid is failing.
They are invoking the disaster law now because they're introducing power shortages.
They have to do this so they can have any power at all whatsoever.
They've also got water issues at the same time.
They're having water supply issues.
I mean, they're right on the coast.
They have plenty of rivers, but at the same time, they can't get water to the people.
And so this footage that we're all looking at comes to us by way of Joel Pollack from Breitbart.
And I just have to say, congratulations, South Africa.
You are the first country to achieve total equity, full equality, full inclusion in your workforce.
The level of equity and equality is off the charts because everyone is suffering equally.
That's the only way and the only outcome that will ever come from forcing equality on an entire country or an entire group of people because human beings are inherently inequal.
That's just how it is.
We all have different talents.
And so what you're seeing there, those are images of the Central Mall in Cape Town, South Africa from just a couple of days ago that's completely blacked out.
And you're seeing this across the country.
Hospitals are having power issues.
Kids have to read by candlelight.
You're seeing images of kids that, you know, like the strobe light attached to their head kind of stuff, the flashlight.
And it's horrifying.
It's terrible.
And you go back to 1998 and Nelson Mandela, his government, and you can pull this up on the old CNN website, you know, the new CNN, you can never find it, but it says racial quota plan to become law.
They called it employment equity, Charlie.
Have you heard that phrase before?
I know that I have, because the parliamentary move would give, quote, preferences to people on the basis of race and ultimately require racial quotas.
Said Anita Jeffrey of the South African Institute of Race Relations.
To push this transition into the quote white-dominated ranks and make up for the wrongs of apartheid, Mandela's government backs a plan in which Black South Africa.
I'm just reading from CNN.com, by the way, government would back a plan in which Black South Africans, quote, would need to constitute 69% of the workforce at all levels from the top down.
And it goes on.
And you said it perfectly, Charlie, at the start here.
What they've done is they've taken the system of colonialism and inverted it, where you say, okay, well, we don't like this and we think this is racism.
So we're just going to reverse it.
And essentially what they're doing, you saw Mao do this in China, you saw Stalin do this in Russia, with the inversion being that this isn't just the rich.
What they're doing is based along racial lines.
So it's sort of communism with a racial ethnic basis to it, neo-Bolshevism, whatever you want to call it.
It's the same exact precepts, but applied along different lines.
And of course, this is always the outcome of it.
And it's horrific.
I think it's terrible for everyone living there, obviously, regardless of the color of your skin, et cetera.
But we're seeing the same thing here in the United States because what we've been doing, it's simple, Charlie.
If you start hiring people on the basis of race, gender, and sexual orientation, and you make that your lodestar, then it is always doomed to failure.
Just look at the Biden administration.
Yeah, I mean, we're playing with some really, this is a high-stakes game.
And I want to just drill this down for a second here with you, Jack, because at times when I talk to wealthy conservatives, sometimes, I think they're really starting to get it, but at some times they will resist my intensity warning about these things.
And they'll say, well, this is just an academic thing.
It's just, okay, it's wacky.
We don't like it.
You shouldn't teach kids it.
But eventually they're going to get into the real world.
But Jack, this is no longer a threat.
BlackRock has these ideas via ESG, United Airlines, State Street Partners, the federal government, the Marines, the Navy, the Air Force.
And so can you just reinforce?
I mean, Charlie, you just said it right there.
The airlines, wait until your airline pilot, when you get into your flight, when you go to the airport and you sign up for your flight and your airline pilot has been chosen, not necessarily because they were the best person for the job, but that multiple people were up for the job.
But then the airline said, you know what?
We've got a deficit in our ESG score.
We need to put someone ahead, even if they don't have the better qualifications, but because we need, we have a disparate representation in our workforce of our pilots.
And that's why we need to put this person in the head.
What about, Charlie, they're getting away with MCATs.
We're doing away with standardized testing.
What happens when your doctor, what happens when your surgeon is there?
And you're not going to know.
It's not like they're going to have some card on them that says this.
I'll go back to South Africa.
Go ahead.
Finish the point.
And finish the point because, and, you know, and I actually had someone, a lawyer in South Africa, Jack, you're an idiot.
I'm a constitutional lawyer, and I don't see anything like that.
Okay, here we go.
Chapter 10, Public Administration, Basic Values and Principles Governing Public Administration, Section 195, Paragraph I. Public administration must be broadly representative of the South African people with employment and personnel management practices based on ability, objectivity, fairness, and the need to redress the imbalances of the past to achieve broad representation.
Charlie, they're doing the exact same thing here.
And Jack, here's one of the tragedies.
It will create more bigotry and more stereotyping.
So if you are boarding a United Airlines flight and you see a black pilot, they are conditioning you to think, I don't know if he's there because he's a wonderful pilot.
And that's not good.
I don't want to live in that country.
I don't want to have that kind of lens, but that will be a rational thought that someone will have because of now the hiring quotas and because of the way that we are now putting people in positions of authority and power.
They are changing medical licensing exams.
I hope everyone knows this.
They are changing medical licensing exams so that it is pass fail because different scores were used to award residencies.
And those were, of course, racist.
One minute, Jack.
You remember this, this famously came up with Mindy Kaling's brother.
So the famous actress Mindy Kaling came out in 2015 and says, I faked being black, and that's how I got into medical school.
This came, he's obviously they're of Indian descent, but he decided to fake being black, was able to get into medical school, was able to go all the way through and say, there's no way that you can choose it.
There's no way that you can threaten me.
So Charlie, I think the way out of this really is for everyone to just go ahead and identify with whatever you feel works for you.
If you want to identify as multiracial, as quasi-racial, pseudo-racial, whatever, go for it.
Because who is actually going to question this?
How are they going to enforce any of it?
I think the way to defeat it is to break the system.
What they call equity is they want to create a world where you are in a deficit if you are white.
That is the world they're trying to create.
And it's really cruel to say that.
But when they say equity, they're trying to make it where you have a structural disadvantage through hiring.
It's almost like almost like apartheid.
Of course it is.
I know.
It almost sounds like that.
But that's what South Africa did is South Africa took the awful kind of moral, the immoral approach to apartheid, and they just flipped it upside down.
They just said, okay, now we're going to extract revenge on the colonizers because now we're in charge.
And South Africa is not a functioning country.
I'm incredibly bearish on that.
But Charlie, don't you dare.
Don't you dare say.
Don't you dare say it's because of this.
No, no, no.
You bigoted racist.
If I cared about being called a racist, I wouldn't say half the things I say on the show because I know it's not true.
And the people calling me that are actually bigots.
Jack, there might be a revival happening in our country.
I'm sure you're keeping an eye on that.
As a Catholic, I'm just curious, what are your thoughts on this?
And more broadly, we need a spiritual reset.
Well, Charlie, I've talked a lot about how in the Catholic side of things, we've been seeing a huge resurgence in the traditional Catholicism movement, a movement towards the traditional Latin Mass.
And if you go, if you find one of those churches that holds the traditional Latin Mass, this is the same one, by the way, that the FBI just put on a hit list.
I wonder if the FBI is monitoring Asperg University right now.
Oh, I'm sure they've got plans in Asbury University.
I'm sure there's the same way I'm sure there's federal plans all over East Palestine right now.
I wonder if Ray Eps has been seen in the area.
But this idea of people turning back to God, because that's what is at the heart of both of this in Asbury University, as well as the Tradcath movement.
What we're seeing in, and I've been talking about this for months now, if not a full year, the FBI, of course, has been targeting the Tradcath movement.
So I'm sure they're going to target this next.
They're going to put on the list for Asbury University.
Because if you go to any traditional Latin Mass right now, you will find there are families there of couples in their 20s with children, women wearing veils.
You're seeing standing room only, or as we say on the Catholic side, kneeling room only, that you cannot, they're packed.
They're just absolutely packed to the gills.
The last time I went to one down in Texas, I had to go in the overflow with Dr. Taylor Marshall and his family because there were just too many people that were in the church service.
And you're seeing the exact same thing with this revival.
I think it is a revival.
I think America is going through the fifth grade awakening.
We have to have fifth grade awakening.
If you're Catholic, go to Latin Mass.
If you're searching, go to this revival.
If you're Pentecostal, whatever it is, you got to get right with your creator.
Listen to this clip here.
Cut 100 at this revival.
Someone is publicly repenting of their sin, which takes humility and honesty.
And listen to the cheers.
I mean, I haven't seen anything like this in quite some time.
I've heard stories about revivals like this.
Play cut 100.
So, Jack, just talk more macro.
We need a spiritual revival.
You know, Charlie, we do need a spiritual revival because I think something that the Western church for so many years left out is the fact of the importance of understanding sin, the importance of understanding eternal damnation, and this idea of, you know, this tolerant Jesus, this woke Jesus that we've seen so many quasi-churches pushing now.
It's completely false.
Our institutions have been taken over by secular modernism, and we now live in clown world.
I was just talking about how South Africa is just a few years ahead of us on this timeline, but where everything's falling apart there.
And instead, what we did was we got rid of God and we tried to replace God with government.
And obviously, that doesn't work.
It doesn't work at all.
And we've also tried to replace God with a variety of neo-pagan religions, like worship of the climate, anti-racism, the state, yes, anti-racism.
All of these are matters of theological faith.
They are not matters of actual faith.
And so, this idea of people turning back to God, because they understand we live in a world where things are crumbling all around us every day.
And they want to find substance.
They want to find meaning.
They want to find hope.
And it turns out that there's a book that was written a few years ago.
And there was a guy that used to go around giving people the answers and giving people the guidelines for the way things are supposed to be and the way we're supposed to live.
And apparently, that book has been there all along.
And all we need to do is open it up and actually start reading it.
Jack, God bless you, man.
I'm going to be, if it's still going on, I'm going to go to Kentucky next week and see it for myself.
I hope this pops up all across the country.
I hope this happens in VFW halls, in Rotary Clubs.
I hope it happens in homes and in churches.
We have gone through four great awakenings in our country's history.
The first founded America, the second and the third.
Second saved us from widespread alcoholism.
The third helped lead to the abolition of slavery and eventually the win of the Civil War.
The fourth was Billy Graham's revival that I believe resisted the secular virus and Marxism.
The fifth, I think, could save us from these fake pagan heretical religions and get us right.
Jack, God bless you.
We're out of time.
Thanks so much.
