Speaker Time Text
unidentified
How many guns need to be seized?
How much vitriol do we have to see of Hong Kong, which is an acronym for Hail Hitler?
do we need to see by these protesters on social media?
elijah schaffer
Honk honk was the famous last words that Hitler said before he shot himself in the head at the end of World War II.
It appears that we have actually gone full retard.
We've gone full circle.
That was a Canadian politician that has now said that the phrase, Honk Honk, is not just white supremacy, but the freedom convoy, every time they honk their horn, they're tributing to Hitler.
I kind of don't know what to say anymore when I hear things like this.
It's absolutely maddening to talk about this back on the show.
LD, my dad, John Schaefer, welcome back to the show.
unidentified
Hello, hello.
pastor john schaffer
And I do want to say something regarding Hong Kong.
When you guys were kids, we had you guys on the street corner with signs that said honk if you love Jesus.
So I know you guys were not saying Hitler.
elijah schaffer
Throw a salute to Hitler if you love Christ.
pastor john schaffer
No, I know.
elijah schaffer
But isn't that crazy?
They've gotten to the point now where they're saying they're so scratching and looking for a way to demonize people looking for freedom that they've said that the word, the phrase Hong Kong, which references the trunks honking for freedom, is now a tribute to Nazism.
pastor john schaffer
Yeah, because if they can take some simple phrase or some simple thought and put it in the people's minds and give it a new definition, it's kind of like what kind of cults and false religions do.
They take everything that a Christian believes, but they put a different definition on it.
And so then all of a sudden, you know, they're saying something other than what they said.
And so that's what they're doing.
They're just changing definitions.
elijah schaffer
It's dystopian.
On that note, welcome back to Slightly Offensive, the best worst show on Blaze TV where we do always have the confetti of color.
My dad got it as well.
We're going to be as loving as possible to our lovely Savannah Hernandez.
Because as you can see, when you mess with Savannah, bad things can happen to you, ladies and gentlemen.
If you know what I'm trying to say, just don't ever piss her off because you could end up just like me.
Savannah, I love you so much.
You're an excellent woman.
You're very beautiful and you're smart and talented.
And I never want to do anything to make you angry again.
savanah hernandez
Good, Elijah.
I'm glad you learned your lesson.
We can continue with the show now.
Please, no cursing, because we have a very special guest today, okay?
So just know your place and we won't have any more issues.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, don't forget to follow Savannah at the Rapid Fire podcast and also on Sound Says and to follow us on social media.
Remember, this is an audio-only podcast as well, so that you can, if you love the show and you want to support us, don't forget to download it wherever you can get podcasts and also to leave a five-star review, which we will read at the end.
And we are so thankful for those every day as we are demonetized and we rely on you for support.
So obviously, with everything that's going on in the media, it's absolutely insane to me that we've gotten to a point in this dystopia so quickly that you can just get on TV, make something up, and nobody even combats you anymore.
It's just like, you just made it up.
Hong Kong is an acronym for Hail Hitler.
No stats, no evidence, nothing, no reason to prove that.
unidentified
Right?
elijah schaffer
Words do change.
Gay used to mean happy and now it means you're homosexual.
Like rainbows used to be God's promise and kids and butterflies and now it's you're gay.
So people do change meanings of things in culture, but we're not really changing the meaning.
We're just making it up as we go.
pastor john schaffer
Well, I think when people are sitting at home and they're watching that kind of thing on the news, I mean, people are like in Canada or wherever, and they're hearing a change of words like that.
They're thinking, well, wait, that's not true.
That's not right.
And so a lot of people are.
But when somebody's looking for an argument for their side, then they're going to latch on to that and they're going to use it against people.
And so, but other people that recognize that it's wrong, but then it's like, who do I tell that it's wrong?
Because everybody's saying that it's right.
And if I say it's wrong, they're going to get me.
You know, so it's kind of a hard thing and it's a scary thing for people that are kind of in the middle and don't know how to handle these times.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, it's true.
And before we talk more about this in the very disturbing state of the world, I want to give a huge shout out to somebody that's helped keep stability in my life.
Obviously, you know, not only is meat hard to find at the stores, it's like you go to the stores, the supply chain issue.
It's like, even if you find meat, you sit down, you know, I'm talking about.
It's like, oh, you find chicken, but then it's the pack that nobody wanted.
savanah hernandez
Yeah, it's like the last one.
You're like, okay.
elijah schaffer
You see, like the steak that's like, is stink supposed to be white?
It's like not even the right color.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
And so you want a way to get meat that's healthy and sustainable as we are carnivores.
So you got to get a subscription to Moink Box.
So Moink Box is not only a meat delivery service that comes to your house that you can choose the regularity of it, but it's also high-quality meat, meaning they support small farms, not big farms, and not GMOs and all these weird things with chemicals inside of them.
So while you're treating your body right by getting whole, real natural meat that doesn't have all these additives, you're also supporting small farms that support the ideology that we should be taking care of animals, treat them fairly, and also give them a good life while they're alive.
And then when we eat them, we should treat them humanely as well.
And then we treat our bodies well.
It's kind of this crazy idea of eating good food that's actually good for you.
If you join the moink box movement today, obviously I love the ribeye.
It's amazing.
I've gotten everything from them-from salmon to pork.
It's all amazing.
Go to moinkbox.com/slash offensive right now.
And listeners of this show will get free flet mignon for a year.
I don't even know how that's possible, but it is.
That's one year of the best flemignon you'll ever taste.
But for a limited time, go to moinkbox, M-O-I-N-K-B-O-X.com/slash offensive.
That's moinkbox.com/slash offensive.
Sign up today and get the best meat.
Do your body a service and check it out.
So, I mean, obviously, we talk about that.
This is it's crazy that we even have an advertiser where it's like, I never knew there was going to be a time on the show where the advertisement was going to be like, Are you having trouble finding meat?
Like, can you find meat in your grocery store?
Here's a place that will give you meat so that you can eat meat.
Like, I've been like, We went from like, hey, it's good meat to like, some of you live in cities and can't find it.
unidentified
Right.
pastor john schaffer
Hey, by the way, another note other than the meat, but um, you're four.
You know, that looks pretty good, I have to say.
And I know there is a story behind it, but also on your desk are all those dolls.
And the funny thing about that is, and I know they're not really your dolls, but I don't know.
But what I will say is that I just came from California and brought my daughter's things to her in a big suitcase, things that she had not taken with her.
elijah schaffer
And child memory.
pastor john schaffer
And one of them was a bag of Barbies.
So maybe she needs to bring her bag of childhood Barbies.
elijah schaffer
I know that you don't want, we're not allowed to curse here, but we did have our diverse.
This is our diversity collection.
I wanted to explain it to you.
So basically, it's Black History Month.
And so we've been building this diversity collection, which is to bring representation.
And people vote on the names of this.
And so obviously, we had, we're talking about some of the more dark sides of society.
And so this is actually our victim of Asian hate to bring awareness to Sab's family and friends on the whole, the whole victims of damaging Asians.
And it's very insensitive of the audience because while we were bringing, we were, this is a very serious topic.
Savannah knows this show is very serious.
We never make light of very terrible things.
John literally amputated her arm on air with a hash.
savanah hernandez
Yeah, you know, funnily, funny enough, she was actually the victim of a white hate.
A white hate crime, which is wild.
elijah schaffer
It's still Asian hate.
savanah hernandez
Still Asian hate.
elijah schaffer
So he did this, but they voted on the name for her.
And it's not cursing, but her name is Fukmi.
savanah hernandez
It comes from a very famous Japanese movie.
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
So that was her.
pastor john schaffer
I will say, I will say, because both of them have mentioned about not cussing, but you know, and I understand that, you know, there can be something going there that you can use it generationally, maybe, but I will tell you that I do remind you.
And all you parents at home, let me tell you, I do remind my son that it just doesn't sound so good.
elijah schaffer
No, but I didn't.
pastor john schaffer
It sounds bad.
elijah schaffer
I didn't name the, that the audience votes and names the person.
savanah hernandez
This was all our audience.
elijah schaffer
Okay, I'm not just talking about the name.
pastor john schaffer
I'm not just talking about it.
elijah schaffer
No, but it's a Japanese word, fukmi.
It's like, it's a, it's a, it's like pho, like the word, eat pho.
And if you put a K at the end, it would be the F word too, but it's still spelled P-O-P-H-O-K.
pastor john schaffer
I'll just have to say, I believe you, but I don't know.
savanah hernandez
Okay.
But I don't know.
unidentified
Okay.
elijah schaffer
So obviously in the midst of this backwardness and what's going crazy, these signs popped up.
And this is so crazy.
We've gotten to a point where we basically are just using COVID to push whatever agenda.
And this is weird, like with humans, is that we take crises and then we use these to manipulate people.
And that's how you know that these people in power don't care about your health and your safety, right?
The moment they shut down gyms, you knew that they didn't care about your health.
And these signs were popping up saying here that socialism is what we need to defeat COVID.
That's been the plan the whole time.
A Marxist program for the pandemic.
And I like how we bring this on the screen, Savannah, as if it's like, as if we barely, I thought that was the plan the whole time.
pastor john schaffer
So where did this come from?
elijah schaffer
Socialism.
I'm not sure.
It's the socialistrevolution.org.
This could be, it says IT slash IMT Madison.
So maybe Wisconsin.
pastor john schaffer
Okay.
Maybe I'll look that up later.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I mean, I'm just saying, but it says Madison on there.
IMT, maybe it's a college in Wisconsin.
But I'm saying particularly, they're not even hiding this anymore on colleges.
Like, this is how we institute socialism.
This is how we actually get people in control.
And it is shocking to me how many people still don't see that this is not about a pandemic.
This is not about your health and safety.
Life-saving treatments were blocked.
Even now, the monoclonal antibodies, which were actually helping people who were unhealthy, are being blocked intentionally.
Like the government is stopping life-saving treatments to the point to where the, you know, did you see with the queen?
How they did a segment in Australia on the queen and the new drug cocktails that could save her life and ivermectin was on there.
And then everyone's like, oh, so the queen's taking ivermectin.
And then they had to fact check it and say they accidentally intentionally edit, inserted the video clip of the ivermectin and that there's no evidence.
They didn't say the queen isn't taking it.
They said there's no evidence the queen is taking it and the FDA doesn't approve it.
Didn't say it doesn't work.
So there's no evidence she's taking it and the FDA didn't approve it.
And their excuse was, we accidentally inserted a clip of ivermectin.
It was an accident.
Like I'm just saying, isn't that crazy?
Like that was their excuse.
They didn't even, they had, they couldn't say anything.
They were like, oh, crap, we can't, like, they're so bad at their narrative that they're not even saying that it's not true.
pastor john schaffer
They're just saying, oops, we did that on a but imagine, apart from what the media is doing and what she's taking, but if you were in your 90s and then you did get coronavirus, I mean, you would be very open to whatever it is that you heard might help you.
And of course, there are some good treatments out there.
And so, or there's some questionable ones, but something might work when you're in your, you know, as you're getting older.
elijah schaffer
Do you think it was a bump?
Do you think they intentionally released it on, like, do you think this was intentional and got out of hand or something like that?
pastor john schaffer
Well, okay.
Only going by different things that I've listened to.
So it's possible, of course, the lab that it was created by man and that it's possible as far as that being a theory as well.
And I, and it's probably going to be a very long time before we would ever find out the truthfulness of that.
So when you say, do I think I don't know, but I understand the heart of man is desperately wicked.
And so I know that it's absolutely possible because governments do lie and they've got all kinds of things that go on that they're trying to, you know, do on public.
elijah schaffer
So Savannah, I know you have a strong opinion about this and we may have to like bleep out the word the word then I don't know.
But I mean, do you think this was intentional?
Because I'll get into my take on it too.
Like it, it is, it is odd to me that China won't use the vaccines.
I just call they're just jabs, but they won't use these vaccines.
China isn't using these.
pastor john schaffer
Don't they have some of their own, though?
elijah schaffer
Yes, but they won't use these.
Okay, so they won't use the mRNA vaccines that we're using.
savanah hernandez
Also, do not forget about our government officials funding gain of function research in China.
That was also a big thing.
elijah schaffer
It wasn't gain of function, but it was gain of function.
And they were intentionally creating these viruses.
savanah hernandez
Well, it wasn't gain of function because they changed the definition of gain of function and also vaccine.
unidentified
Correct.
elijah schaffer
So that's what I mean.
Like, so that's what I said.
It's gain of function, but not because gain of function changed after we defined what gain of function meant.
And the functions that they were gaining, the manipulation of the genetic code, was to make very deadly viruses infect humans, which makes no sense, which is crazy.
Do you know what?
You know what's crazy too?
Isn't it weird that the same people involved in this pandemic, including Fauci and some of the others, were creating a medicine for a retrovirus and then nobody would buy it and a vaccine.
And then all of a sudden, they were doing gain of function research.
And then HIV suddenly infected humans, but only gays and black people mostly.
And then we had the medicine to start treating it really quickly.
And then the medicine was listed as one of the top killers of the people and seemed to almost be further developing HIV into full-blown AIDS.
savanah hernandez
It's almost like this was a gigantic money-making scheme by our government, you know, coupled with potentially depopulation of less desirable populations, but that's just me being a conspiracy theorist, truly.
elijah schaffer
It was weird that they didn't like black people and gays in the 80s, and then suddenly they wiped out an entire generation of homosexuals with a virus that suddenly popped up and only affected a few people because apparently the virus just didn't care about lesbians.
You know what I mean?
savanah hernandez
Also, remember that Dr. Fauci said that you could get AIDS from drinking from a water fountain, right?
And maybe even potentially being in the same room as somebody with AIDS.
Who knows?
And we're hearing that same exact rhetoric with COVID.
But again, please do not question Dr. Fauci because his narrative has not changed 58,000 times over the past two years.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, it is also kind of strange on top of that that we found the cure for AIDS literally last week.
And now we've successfully treated three people.
But three days later, HIV fused with coronavirus to create a new spike.
And HIV-2 came out.
savanah hernandez
Who would have thought that it was more deadly?
elijah schaffer
And now we don't have the cure for that.
And in the same week, a new HIV virus we discovered a few days after we found a scientist discovered the cure for AIDS.
Isn't that crazy?
Isn't that crazy?
This is crazy.
pastor john schaffer
I can understand we're trying to come up with cures for everything.
And as soon as man is trying to help man, maybe, then also he puts his hands into it.
And then, of course, it can create other things.
So I'm hoping that we get some really good help here and some good thinking people that can really help mankind and not destroy mankind.
elijah schaffer
I feel like, why are you so positive about things?
savanah hernandez
Why aren't you as blackpilled as we are, Dad?
pastor john schaffer
Okay, because, you know, why do you have hope?
savanah hernandez
Why are you happy?
pastor john schaffer
Okay, I hear people go back and forth on things.
And when I listen to somebody, I'm going, I'm taking in the truth that I'm hearing, but I also want to make sure that I know the facts, you know, personally.
Now, obviously, those of you that think they can figure out Elijah's father in one hour, whatever this is for this show, I was driving here to visit my son.
I had no idea I was going to be on here.
savanah hernandez
Welcome, Dad.
pastor john schaffer
Yes, thank you.
And so they really do.
I have no idea.
savanah hernandez
I imagine every parent likes this, though.
My mom was on too.
pastor john schaffer
I did not read all the news articles.
And so everything is just like fresh off the press as I would listen.
And so, anyway, but I definitely have opinions, but I know that my opinions are not gospel.
They're not necessarily backed with all the information.
And obviously, you know, but also we know that our experts are not always giving all the correct information either.
savanah hernandez
Father Schaefer, can I bring forth a statistic for you and get you a response to it?
So under penalty of perjury, doctors went to Washington, D.C., and they were reporting on a 300% uptake in miscarriages in cancer rates, a 1,000% uptake in neurological diseases that the media refuses to report on.
Again, this was under penalty of perjury that they were presenting this information.
And, you know, there's one variable that exists now that wasn't there previously.
I mean, what do you think about these statistics of, again, like myocytardis rising, heart disease rising over the past year?
What do you think?
pastor john schaffer
Okay, I will say that I have talked to people that have had surgery after the shot.
You know, I've known of different things.
I've talked to enough people to know that there are complications, difficulties that people have had.
And then I've listened to other statistics through the CDC and everything to understand that there are problems.
And so I do believe that the doctors are right.
It doesn't mean that maybe it's not helping somebody, but at the same time, it could be helping somebody and hurting somebody at the same time.
So I do see that reality when you look at people that have gone under oath and have said, we see this, this is really happening.
And obviously all these doctors are not lying.
And so yeah, I could agree that that's true.
elijah schaffer
Right.
Well, and so, but this is what's interesting.
The more that I want to have like an understanding that this isn't nefarious, like I want to believe that our institutions are not fully corrupt and that these people wouldn't intentionally kill people.
I just want to remind people that in the last century, there's been tens of millions of people that were killed, potentially hundreds of millions, depending on the statistics you look at.
Well, there was hundreds of millions, but I mean, like, people just argue that were killed by their own governments.
Like, this is very common with the Great Right Ford with the Communist Revolution in Russia, the Holocaust, with the Holocaust.
Yeah, with, I mean, we're talking about World War I, World War II, talking about the French terrorist org, et cetera.
These are very common things.
9-11, these things happen.
But this is just different because as technology has advanced, it's like the same reason why we've talked about like now when they kill people, like Jean-Luc, the trafficking pimp for Epstein, who they just killed the other day in his jail cell and the cameras were mounted.
pastor john schaffer
I didn't hear that on the news.
elijah schaffer
They know that they can't do it on camera anymore because they basically need to just hide the information because we've gotten smarter and we've got more access to it.
So instead of like the information being there and someone finding it, we don't even have access.
If you can go to my screen, the CDC, it's from the Daily Mail, to give credit.
The CDC is refusing to publish data that is collected on booster effectiveness for adults.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has withheld vast swaths of the information it holds about the impact of COVID-19, leading to anger from the scientific community and speculation that agency is not releasing the data because it weakens the case for booster shots in certain demographics.
Two weeks ago, the CDC published the first significant data on the effectiveness of boosters in adults younger than 65.
But the agency led by Dr. Rochelle Walensky did not share the information on those aged 18 to 49 who are considered to be the least likely to benefit from a booster.
It has also failed to provide information they held on child hospitalizations.
Scientists complained.
Kristen Nordland, a spokeswoman for the CDC, said that the agency has been slow to release the different streams of data because basically at the end of the day, it's not yet ready for prime time.
The truth isn't ready for people to discuss.
That's what that literally translates.
unidentified
Right.
pastor john schaffer
And I understand because they're trying, as some people do, they're trying to control a narrative because we want everybody to do what we want them to do.
So if they hear something that's true that might go to their side, then they're not going to do what we want them to do.
And so I do disagree with that.
I believe that there should be absolutely, you should be able to think for yourself.
You should be able to decide for yourself and that everybody should have a voice.
And I think that is true freedom 100%.
elijah schaffer
Right.
But it is alarming to me because, like I said with my take on the bioweapon thing, is that things are too strategic.
Think about this.
We have the World War Games in 2019 when the virus is released, right?
It's when we look back and it was about 2019.
pastor john schaffer
And I don't know what World War Games are.
Some of you probably don't know either.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
Well, it's like sports, but it's also like people go into China.
They're going to Wuhan in Wuhan basically representatives from the military came in from every country in Wuhan in late 2019 And they all basically convened Okay, it's not like I don't Savannah, I might be wrong on this, but it's not war games.
It's not like war war games.
It's like it's actually like a sports thing.
Right the, the Wuhan war games.
Was that what it was?
I don't care, it doesn't matter what the details are, because I haven't directly looked at everything they do.
I just know that they the military and representatives and people convened in Wuhan, and that is interesting.
Savannah, remind me we need to look more into that.
What happened there?
We need to do more investigations into what happened.
savanah hernandez
I'm researching it right now.
elijah schaffer
Yeah yeah please please, bring that up because I might.
savanah hernandez
I haven't.
unidentified
I have.
savanah hernandez
I have a headline, if you want me to read it really quickly, from the Washington POST.
It just says, Congress is investigating whether the 2019 military World Games in Wuhan was a Covet 19 superspreader event.
Okay, I remember what you're talking about.
Now you kind of pulled it up out of nowhere.
I didn't even remember that.
Yes um, that's what this is.
elijah schaffer
So long, i'm way back.
So lots happened, but I remember that we had the military games in Wuhan yeah, in 2019.
So something involving that.
I don't.
I'm not in the military, I don't know what they do there, but I know this in Wuhan, where the level four weapons laboratory is okay, and then we have this, this war game, and the virus is released into, into the public and this is my current theory and they say, you know it might have been leaked by accident.
They're still saying, at one point they said you were a conspiracy theorist, but just think about this, how is it that a virus leaks into the population of Wuhan from the Wuhan GAIN OF Function laboratory while diplomats and large groups of people from every country and every continent in the world are in Wuhan?
That's not chance to me.
That that screams intentionality.
Now yes now, what's crazy is is that if you were going to do that and get away with it, it would have to be a disease, considering that there's probably military fitness that fit people wouldn't have severe symptoms, that it would feel like a cold, like something that wouldn't alarm people because, like they said in this article, it's not ready for prime time.
Meaning this entire thing to me has been like, how do we control the narrative before people find out about it?
So you have this this these, these war games, military games, that go on in in Wuhan.
It gets leaked.
They traced it back.
I still wonder if they didn't make it mean to make it airborne.
I don't know what the deal was, but this is where i'm wondering if it was a test run or something.
And and they were freaking out.
They knew about it that it was released for months before alerting anybody and during those months it's spreading in Wuhan.
Nobody's talking about it.
The Chinese government's suppressing information.
Nobody's hearing about Covet 19, Sars 2.
Wuhan's a highly populated area talking about millions of people.
There's so many flights in and out of the world.
You give it enough time to incubate and spread everywhere before you bring it into prime time.
That's what this is, this article.
This is what the CDC said.
It wasn't ready for prime time.
unidentified
Boom.
elijah schaffer
We go into 2020.
COVID's ready for prime time.
It's ready to, we're ready to talk about it.
There's this new deadly virus.
And then you have propaganda.
You have all this stuff out of China and everyone's like, like shaking and convulging and like passing out and they're nailing people.
And everyone's like, oh my gosh, this is so crazy.
We're all going to die.
This is so insane.
Meanwhile, COVID's been circulating around the world for months.
Like it's been around.
Like I said, it's been around.
But suddenly, and suddenly for the first time ever, we're seeing Chinese approaches to COVID becoming the norm.
It's literally called the Beijing model.
All of a sudden, the West, which is not authoritarian, which are open democracies, which are free worlds, republics mostly, suddenly tell everybody through the propaganda, everybody, every country, we need to lock down for a few weeks because this is so serious and people are going to die.
Meanwhile, COVID's everywhere in our country.
pastor john schaffer
Do you remember?
elijah schaffer
But they say that we have three cases.
pastor john schaffer
I remember your brother was actually looking into this.
And so months ahead before the public was even regularly hearing about this, he was alerting the family to this.
elijah schaffer
He wasn't alerting me.
I was tracking this.
We were doing episodes very early on.
I've looked back.
I've made sure.
I go back regularly and watch our episodes on COVID to make sure and write down notes of where we could have gotten things better.
And so far, we've never been wrong.
savanah hernandez
And can I pop in here too, really quick?
Sorry to cut you off, Dad.
But I remember I was reporting on the Hong Kong protest in 2019.
And a lot of people were speculating as well that the virus was released to quell those protests and allow the CCP to really take over Hong Kong.
That was another really interesting theory.
And people were being silenced, like Elijah talked about, that doctor was being silenced.
The numbers of cases of COVID and deaths and everything in China were either being silenced or propaganda was being put out.
It was very interesting.
And then, you know, it hit the U.S.
And at that point, too, it was like COVID was already released.
We were still having the Super Bowl in February of 2020.
We still had all of those events.
But then once the media latched onto it and it became this huge, scary virus that was killing everybody in the streets.
pastor john schaffer
So, you know, but what was not strange is that this foreign government would be suppressing something.
But what is strange is when all the governments of the world would start doing that.
savanah hernandez
The great race.
unidentified
Not all.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, that's an exaggeration necessarily.
Obviously, not Brazil.
But it's interesting.
And so it could have something to do with that.
But of course, hey, we're going to have to reset the button with bringing Jesus to all these people.
savanah hernandez
But your dad makes a good point too here.
Sorry to cut you off again, Major, but it's like he pointed to Brazil and look at Brazil and their politics and look at what they don't promote.
They're kind of like Russia, right?
Where they're these countries, exactly, that are very religious.
They don't want to be a part of these world organizations and they are the most demonized in the world.
elijah schaffer
Do you know why?
Do you know what happened with Brazil of why they didn't implement things?
Because they caught onto the bullshit very quickly.
savanah hernandez
Yeah, Bolsonaro is not the Brazilian Trump.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, because what happened was Pfizer, you can fact check me on this.
It's 100% true.
Pfizer and another one of the drug companies were, they were blackmailing foreign countries to gain control through the World Economic Forum, basically through orders to gain control of and leverage their banks.
So some banks are not really well controlled by the World Economic Forum and by the central bank and the IMF, et cetera.
And so what they were doing is they were basically saying, we are not going to send you any of the vaccines until you put your entire country's wealth and capital as collateral and agree to no prosecutions for any adverse side effects from the vaccines in your country.
And the only countries that were, the United States media wasn't reporting on this, but specifically the Indian media was reporting heavily on this, which little known tidbit, guys.
If you want to be super based, go watch our enemies or countries that don't like us economically's news in English.
India has English-speaking news, and they're extremely well put together.
And it's government-funded, and the government hates America, so they're really good at finding bad things about our government and our companies that are unfortunately true.
It's the same reason why Russian state media, I always tell people, be careful, because state-funded media from other countries will always give you the most accurate version of America, but they'll skew their own country.
Like they're state-funded, so they make like Russian state media compared to the most inaccurate reporting about Russia with the most accurate reporting about the United States because they want to make us look bad and they want to find out our insecurities.
pastor john schaffer
But they might.
Unless they're trying to confuse people.
elijah schaffer
No, Because I've looked all this.
So they basically were like, we're like bullying these countries into joining the global and world system on a greater level.
And they basically said, if you don't get the vaccine, then we're going to blast you as being like a country that wants your citizens to die, which is why Brazil is constantly being pushed like that.
Which was that your country die until you agree to these terms?
And they bullied, they tried to gain control of the countries by withholding vaccines.
And then if you didn't take the vaccines, they made your country, they would go into your media and your country and make everyone think that their government was trying to kill them.
pastor john schaffer
Yeah, real fast.
savanah hernandez
Which was that country that the president got assassinated and it was also found out that he didn't want the vaccine and he wasn't accepting the vaccine.
Was that Uganda?
elijah schaffer
Well, I'll look it up.
savanah hernandez
Look, now that we're talking about this, what is this?
That's just us like red-pooing your father?
pastor john schaffer
There's a lot of information that you guys, you know, hate everybody that listens to them.
They've got some good information here.
Things that I haven't read since.
elijah schaffer
So psychotic.
pastor john schaffer
Yeah, look.
savanah hernandez
Yeah, which one was it?
Which one?
elijah schaffer
No, no, no, it's Haiti.
savanah hernandez
It was Haiti.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, yeah.
Haiti didn't want any of the vaccines and then they assassinated the president.
savanah hernandez
Their president just died.
elijah schaffer
They assassinated him in his home.
Right after you turned it down, they assassinated him.
I can't, I don't know what's Washington Post must be hurting for money because this is a lot of ads going on here.
Yeah, I was like, wow.
savanah hernandez
I was like, trying to show the headline and it was like here on my screen.
Okay, let's look.
elijah schaffer
Haitian president Jovenel Noise, I don't want to say that, assassinated at home.
And I do want to talk about that, but obviously, guys, with the volatility of the world as we get into this, you know that your money is not worth what it was used to.
I don't, do you feel the inflation?
I see it everywhere.
pastor john schaffer
Especially California.
elijah schaffer
I'm sorry.
Rest in peace.
Hometown.

No, but that's what I'm saying.
I was laughing because Kez was like, sometimes I like truth pill Kez because Kez doesn't want to be involved in all this stuff.
Like, I brought her more close into the political world, and she was like, I want to make a channel for housewives.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, that's good.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, she was like, she was like, she was like, she was like, I realize why women need men because you guys have kind of like the shield.
Like, you guys, she was like, I was like, she's like, she's like, the slander, the rumors, the hatred, the hate mail, the threats, the violence, the competition, the politics.
She's like, it's just, she's like, basically, this industry is not for women.
That's basically what she said.
Or for very particular, fierce women that you should always respect that are amazing.
Like Savannah Hernandez, who happens to be extremely talented and beautiful and the exception.
And I would never say anything bad about her again, ever, because I've learned my lesson.
pastor john schaffer
But then, as soon as she gets married and begins to have kids, then she can enter into the housewives.
unidentified
I think she will.
elijah schaffer
I think women nest.
I think that's the truth.
I think it's a true story.
savanah hernandez
Then at that point, I will be raising the future world leaders.
So my attention will have been diverted.
pastor john schaffer
True story.
elijah schaffer
Just so that women understand that work, Kez said, like, she didn't know what she wanted to do.
And she didn't realize the reason why she couldn't figure out her job and was never fully happy anywhere was because she was just supposed to be at home and being a wife.
And she goes, like, and that's where she was like, it's weird.
I didn't know that until I did that.
And everyone told me that was the opposite of what to do.
Like, you got to spend years being a career woman.
And then once I became a stay-at-home wife, I was like, I was made for this.
Like, she was like, she was like, but you don't know because everyone tells you it's wrong.
And then she goes, it's the, she goes, I'm so happy.
Like, I love it.
pastor john schaffer
Well, I'm happy for you.
elijah schaffer
Well, no, but I'm, but I'm, but I'm saying that women don't realize that like how awesome that is.
Yeah, they don't realize how discontented they might be because they're living according to the systems of the world and that everything that makes you unhappy, they promote.
So she likes, like, mom was a career woman.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, right.
And she grew up with her, right?
That old Proverbs 31 thing that, you know, she definitely takes care of her house during the winter.
You know, it makes sure she keeps them all warm.
She keeps them fed, but she also goes and sells a piece of land.
And your mom was speaking all over the place, different states, sometimes in the world, and yet still made sure that all the dinners were there, all the clothes were done.
You guys were homeschooled.
I mean, definitely an amazing, amazing woman.
elijah schaffer
I know, Sab, did you know that?
My mom was like a prolific public speaker.
savanah hernandez
That's awesome.
Very high demand.
Very high demand.
It makes sense because genetically, look what was passed down to you.
So it makes sense that you're able to speak so eloquently.
elijah schaffer
It's like, that's what genetic disorders were.
I got 6% of her genes.
And that's what happens.
That's how you get.
savanah hernandez
You're like, my mother was a public speaker.
I don't know what happened to me.
elijah schaffer
My dad is a great, but prolific public speaker, but obviously people know that.
He's a pastor and he's his job is to speak.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, but okay.
So my wife, she had, and I would say this, that Elijah got my wife's mind and he got my demeanor.
And so, so the thing is, you know, my wife was just a super excellent thinker.
And I happen to be one that kind of picks up things and processes them slowly, but finally, for sure on that one.
elijah schaffer
You need your, you're okay.
So, Savannah, does this work?
savanah hernandez
You guys are like the white Kanye Wests of the conservative movement of the right.
elijah schaffer
Does this look like it's okay?
I'll take it.
Does this sound familiar as I described my dad?
Do you know anyone like this?
Ready?
Great visions for things that can really happen.
A little scatter-brained, but needs people that are highly organized under him to make sure that his visions are executed.
And if he has disorganized or insubordinate people under him, it can be very frustrating for him and his plans can really fall apart.
Does that sound like anyone you know?
savanah hernandez
Okay, okay.
You've never heard of him, but his name is Elijah Schaefer.
He's kind of crazy.
He's just like you, John.
It's wild.
elijah schaffer
Like, I have to hire type A, high-strung people to work for me because if anyone's not a self-starter type A person, it's not going to be good.
It's horrifying.
unidentified
Yeah.
Look at this.
elijah schaffer
Look at how nicely she puts these together.
Like, she, I just, I literally just rapid shoot herself.
unidentified
Stop.
Stop.
elijah schaffer
I just send her stuff.
This sounds like you too.
I just like send her a million things.
And then she like puts it and organizes the ideas and then puts it into a nice form for me so we can have a nice show that was all my crazy ideas at four in the morning with like weird things.
And then she puts it into a nice form.
savanah hernandez
And that's in and rips the script in half.
And then he just wings everything and it somehow works beautifully.
pastor john schaffer
I totally get it because I have an Imelda, I have a Linda, and I've got people around me and a Frank that are just organizing.
So that's good.
elijah schaffer
We love our Franks.
savanah hernandez
We love Frank.
elijah schaffer
I know it's like, I steal your Frank.
I'm like, do you want to come work on your friend?
unidentified
Hey, Frank.
savanah hernandez
Hey, we have an opportunity for you.
elijah schaffer
You can work for my dad.
You could work for me.
No, but I am saying, though, with all of that being said and done, is like, back to the point, is that Kez was like, well, why, like, why is this that evil?
Like, what's the point?
And I said, I said, genuinely, this is not just like some sort of an InfoWars moment.
I go, genuinely, there's a reason why my atheist co-host at night has literally told me, I starting to see why you call these people demonic and why you use the phrase satanic.
I go, it is the satanic control of the world.
I go, how do you explain this?
Why do humans want people to be dumb, fat, ugly, and poor and feel gross?
When I say ugly, I mean, I've told you the last time, it's not just like people born not good looking.
Like they want pretty women to shave their hair and put piercings and tattoo their face.
Like they want you to look gross.
I go, it's because everything that God wants for humanity, that's why they want the opposite.
How can you jail someone for 10 years?
The leader of the convoy protest, they're putting her in prison for allegedly right now.
They're charging for 10 years for leading a protest for freedom.
Who would do that?
The devil.
Evil people.
pastor john schaffer
You know, the Bible says at the end of 1 John, it says that the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.
elijah schaffer
Do you know what I mean?
pastor john schaffer
And so that's at the very end of 1 John.
So just look at the end of 1 John.
elijah schaffer
I'll look at it right now.
pastor john schaffer
And the whole, and it means that the whole world lies under the influence of the wicked one.
And so that is a very serious thing because, meaning, underneath it all, the Bible says that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and rulers of darkness.
So oftentimes, not always, sometimes it is personalities, sometimes it is just people, but oftentimes there is the suggestor, there is the deceiver, there is the wickedness in high places that's whispering into the ears or into the heart of a person.
And they're thinking it's themselves, but they really did get it from the enemy of our souls.
And because he's bringing his influence to this world.
And I think that, you know, even those that are believers and those that are not, people would recognize that they've dealt with that at times in their life where they've maybe listened to something they shouldn't and have been taking on a suggestion of the enemy.
And so we have to be so careful just ourselves, not just looking at the world, but looking at ourselves as well.
unidentified
Right.
elijah schaffer
Well, I'm saying like what's crazy is, Sab, I would say our audience is probably like pretty mixed, like 50, 50 religious.
Like, I'd say like we have like gay atheists that like the show because it's wacky.
Like there's like, I'm saying there's people that watch the show for different reasons.
Like there's this gay atheist and a lot of them that I, that email that I always laugh because I was asked, but why do you watch this show?
And they're like, well, because I also, like, I'm gay, but I don't like the gay community and the agenda and stuff like that.
And like, they'll, sometimes they'll be really honest with me.
They'll be like, I was molested when I was younger and it's still a confusing thing in my life.
And like, but I hate like what they're doing to people, et cetera.
So I mean, like, we have that person to people who email me and tell me they won't even watch an episode when we have a transgender on or a porn star because they won't let wickedness be before their eyes and like then condemn me and send me verses how I'm going to hell.
So we have a pretty wide spectrum.
When you have a show like this, you have a, you know, we average about 100,000 people over our platforms, consume every episode.
When you have 100,000 people watching every episode, you that's a love right.
pastor john schaffer
The thing is, people have their judgments.
But each man stands or falls before God himself.
So when we appear before that judgment seat of Christ and we are going to give an account for what we did while we were in our bodies, we're going to have to look at our own lives and we're going to have to give an answer for those things.
Now, obviously, thank God for the blood of Christ.
But at the same time, God is going to look at our lives.
And so a lot of times people want to be the judge of everybody else's life, but sometimes they miss or they have the blind spots to their own life.
And so they can see so clearly to pull the speck out of somebody else's eye when they have a big log hanging out of their own eye.
elijah schaffer
Right, but I want to put this up there because I laugh.
I was laughing, Savannah, put my screen up.
I'm like, every time we show a verse, people get so mad at what version we use.
So here's all the versions.
savanah hernandez
Here's all.
It's the diversity and inclusion Bible.
Thank you.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, it's awesome Bible.
No, but like everyone's like, this is the version you should use.
And just for the sake of everyone who complains, here's literally all of our versions.
Here's the NASB from 1977.
Here's the, I love the amplified.
unidentified
Can we get like the Quran version as well of what this could potentially be?
pastor john schaffer
I think you'll find the right verses there.
elijah schaffer
But no, but I was going to say that this is 1 John 5, 19.
We know that we are children of God and the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
That's why we should start memorizing verses on the show.
1 John 5, 19, the first of the day that the world is under the control of the wicked one.
pastor john schaffer
And that's the truth.
elijah schaffer
But here's what I want to ask you.
Because there is, because of that wide range of people, there are a lot of people who don't believe in the God of the Bible, but they also understand the Bible is full of wisdom and truth and they also believe in some being.
What do you say to people who watch the show?
Because you're a pastor and that, you know, to a lot of people, some people still respect pastors.
It's not a lot of people don't anymore.
But why?
What is the evidence that this is the enemy?
Because that's what people say.
You have no evidence that this is demonic or sin.
pastor john schaffer
It's almost like you had to be raised in a pastor's home.
Because I remember one time I was going through some hard stuff.
And I remember I prayed.
I said, Lord, just put some angels around me.
Just send an angel.
And then my youngest daughter, she got up.
And this is about a week later.
Dad, Dad, there were these angels in the house.
One was in the hallway and one was over by the living room.
They're really tall.
And, you know, normally somebody would listen to their, we'll say, junior high kid and just go, yeah, okay, well, that's neat.
That was a neat dream.
And even as a pastor, you might say that.
But I'll tell you, I said, I said, you know what?
I'm not going to say your name here, but I said to her, I said, you know, I just prayed a week ago that God would send angels.
So I'm just going to trust that you saw them.
I didn't, but that, you know, God put them here.
And so the fact is, is that the spiritual realm is happening, regardless of what people see, regardless even of what people believe.
And that as far as trying to get somebody to believe, if they were willing to take a look at the past history of their life and the experiences they've had, they've had spiritual experiences.
They've had unexplained things.
They've had things that were not coincidences that were absolute timing of God.
And that if you were able to get into a conversation with them long enough, and then, of course, to explain to them about the cross and the resurrection, I think more people would believe if they wouldn't just shut down the narrative in their mind because like, well, no, I don't believe that.
And so I'm just not going to listen to that or I'm not going to receive because I already have these exalted arguments in my head against it.
But I'll tell you what, through love and good conversation, those arguments can come tumbling down in Jesus' name for sure.
And so with each person, Elijah, it's going to be a little bit different.
And it's just going to be kind of being sensitive to the Holy Spirit in that conversation and listening to them and finding out what are the strongholds, where are the places where they've broken down or that that relationship or understanding of God has broken down.
And even maybe to go back there and see what God will do, because God could do a miracle right in the middle of a conversation where somebody that's been, you know, pushing God away or hard-hearted, all of a sudden, they're going to be like, you know what?
I haven't listened until just now, but I'm hearing you.
And God begins to open their heart.
And that's what it said about Lydia in the book of Acts that God just opened her heart.
And it really has to be the Lord opening somebody's heart.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I think so too.
I don't know about you, Savannah, but like, that's what I think.
I think people are blinded to spiritual things.
And you have to, like, it's not that the wrong word is people talk about being enlightened, like new age.
Like, so they do wake up to realizing that there's a spirituality.
And I think that that's kind of like the first step in understanding God.
People say, how do I find God?
savanah hernandez
Right.
elijah schaffer
It's not like, like, this is where I do.
I said the worst quote last night.
I was like, here's what the maps got right.
And I was about to say, here's what the New Age people get right.
And why it's so alluring is because you get to accept the reality of spirituality and the truth of it without having to confront the fact that you're a sinner and that you need God and redemption.
So it's like taking away the things of the confession.
savanah hernandez
That I've noticed too, which is really interesting, is a lot of my Christian friends who did ultimately end up finding God.
They started off with, like you just said, this new age, like the crystals, the universe, the multi-dimensional things and just getting touch with their chakras and like, you know, inner being and whatnot.
And it's because, like you said, they don't want to accept God because God has been so rejected in our society.
And that's kind of like the gateway into spirituality.
And it's not necessarily the acceptance of Christ with like a higher being, but people know inherently that there is like a spiritual aspect to our society.
pastor john schaffer
Absolutely.
And, you know, the scriptures say very clearly, Jesus said that he draws all men to himself.
And so people might be like pushing away, but at the same time, he is, he's drawing them, whether it's with love or with his word or with another Christian around them or with a prayer, but he's drawing them.
And so, you know, let's just believe the best that God can bring even the hardest atheist, the Lord can bring anybody to himself.
unidentified
Right.
elijah schaffer
And it is interesting, though, because it's like, and the reason why I want people to prepare is, if you can go to my screen, Savannah, Blaze Media, which by the way, if you don't read the Blaze, there's tons of great stories on there all the time.
I encourage you to check it out.
And they work really, really hard on that as well.
And I am also working on my open investigation of Truth Social, which I will publish in an article probably in about two months.
Trump's new app.
By the way, people get really concerned when I say that.
I have nothing against Truth Social.
I just, every time there's a new app that claims to be from the right, my new thing is I'm investigating everything about them and figuring out a whole profile of if it's really for us.
Because I'm past the point in my life.
By the way, I just wanted to say this.
Savannah knows with Getter, the Getter app, which turned out to be a huge, massive scam, is I have changed, which would be interesting.
We haven't caught up in a while because you've just been busy with the girls.
By the way, the girls, not hilarious.
pastor john schaffer
Grandkids, you mean?
And daughters.
savanah hernandez
What kind of girls are we talking about here?
elijah schaffer
I didn't clarify his grandma.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, okay.
elijah schaffer
And his daughter.
unidentified
But no, no, what I mean.
pastor john schaffer
Maybe a couple of dates too.
elijah schaffer
Oh, yeah.
savanah hernandez
That's true.
elijah schaffer
That's true.
pastor john schaffer
But nobody could ever replace him.
elijah schaffer
He's single.
unidentified
I know.
elijah schaffer
No one can, but he's a handsome guy.
He's a handsome guy and he's smart.
And I'm just saying, he's a handsome guy and he's smart.
Everyone deserves to have a friend in life.
So there's truth to that.
pastor john schaffer
That's a nice son.
elijah schaffer
But I also, well, people can see you.
You're on the camera.
The blind viewer is now going to go to the show and go online and have to look at him.
But I do want to say that in the midst of all of this, like my brain, I did a, I switched soul searching.
Like I do these, these moments where I like have to take a weekend where like I get, it always happens.
I like broke down on Friday on the other episode of the other show, You Are Here, which I want to remind you guys, if you watch the show, I have a live show every night at 6 p.m. Central on it.
It's called You Are Here, and it's really fantastic.
pastor john schaffer
You've been doing it for how long?
elijah schaffer
Five months.
pastor john schaffer
I saw it once in person.
I got to listen.
elijah schaffer
Well, we can come tonight.
I had this moment, guys, where I really got blackpilled.
And you know what black pilled is?
pastor john schaffer
I don't.
elijah schaffer
Where you genuinely look at the state of the world and it just leaves you, leaves a void in your heart.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, yes.
Okay.
I haven't heard that phrase, but absolutely, I understand people can do that.
And that's why some people turn off the news.
unidentified
Right.
elijah schaffer
Well, I'm saying we get, we, I'm not the only person.
This happens.
You get this black pill moment where you just go, you're just overwhelmed by it all.
It's just so insane and crazy that you're just like, like, and I just like, I had this moment where I just sat there and I told the audience, I'm like, you think it's bad now?
They're preparing for 2024 for the next election.
Do not know how bad it's going to get.
pastor john schaffer
And it's true and the things i've been hearing in from congress people I talk to, okay it's, I heard somebody watch your show and they were texting me and they were feeling sorry for you because um, they realized that you were, you were really being affected and um, so a very nice lady was thinking that for sure no.
elijah schaffer
But Savv basically spurred on a soul searching moment for me and was like basically like hey, you should go soul search and like genuinely like people, go hold a come to Jesus moment.
But you need to just get your mind.
Now people don't realize I don't have internal monologue, I can't just sit there and think so i've got to go hang out with a friend and like go and just be like a friend I trust.
But let's just go as deep as we need to into every topic and thought and like really process life and like reposition, figure out what's the best position.
If things are this bad, what position do we take?
And so we are now entering a new arc of slightly offensive that is going to be a whole different approach to content and to thinking and to solving things, because we can't give up.
And I and I realized like I, my whole brain just shifted this week and Savannah knows you, she's still even told me.
She's like you have to sometimes just take these moments to where you have to literally just get rid of your ego, get rid of everything you think you know and go methodically through things.
I spent like eight eight, nine hours with a friend and we just talked through everything and just really really went into the deep, darkest parts of our lives and and everything and just really to understand people and dynamics and what's going on.
And I have come out of this weekend feeling so much clear-headed and level-headed, with so much determination, that there is going to be there's such great things in the work for not only this show but just in my life in general, and a genuine clarity and understanding of like, of like.
We are misfits and we people that watch the show are awake, but we're awaking up together and meaning.
I've never created a show being like I have life.
Figure it out.
Watch me.
If you, if you've been following the show for years, you've literally seen my political views continually develop because we've had to well we well, we've had to because the world has so radically changed.
It's like pre-911, post 911, your worldview should develop.
And when you see things like this, check this out.
I go back to my screen.
Bill Gates warns of a new pandemic.
I can't even believe i'm reading this.
And says sadly, the virus itself, particularly the variant called Omicron, is a type of vaccine.
There's our favorite guy, Bill Gates.
Sadly, it's so sad Microsoft founder Bill Gates acknowledged that the danger of experiencing severe disease from Covet 19 has quote dramatically reduced.
However, he also cautioned that we will have another pandemic.
savanah hernandez
Who could see now in coming.
elijah schaffer
Gates gave an interview for CNBC anchor Hadley Gamble at Germany's annual Munich Security conference.
Sadly, the virus itself, particularly the variant called Omicron, is a type of vaccine, Gates said, according to the real clear politics, that is, it creates both b cell and t cell immunity and it has done a better job of getting out of out to the world population than we have with vaccines.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, so these things can scare you okay, so people hear this on the news, they hear it on your show like, oh my gosh, what if that really happens?
And I mean like right now, living in California, you still see so many people um, of course, with masks.
And yeah, how is that?
Out of great fear and, and you know, some also still driving, i'm sure, here to driving in their cars With the mask.
And I understand some people really do have health problems, but some people are just walking in fear.
And so when people hear things, the world weighs upon them.
And they are fragile enough because the human mind and people tend to have their weaknesses.
And so it seems overwhelming to them.
And so, you know, one of the takes that I have, and maybe this might help somebody with more of a positive take and outlook on these things, is when we look at the world around us, to me, it can have, it can go, of course, many ways, but I'm going to say it can go two ways.
One is that it could be all of this, you know, your talk about the reset, and I have read about that also.
It could be an end time scenario.
It could be all the things leading up to what the book of Revelation and other end time scriptures speak about and the coming of the Antichrist, all that kind of stuff.
So it could be that.
And so it doesn't mean that we sit down and we don't fight and we don't care and we just play dead in the midst of it.
Obviously, we need to care about our families and care about our country.
But on the positive note, you're looking at it and you're going, well, if it all goes bad, as long as it's going toward the end times, that's pretty exciting because Jesus is coming.
But then on the other hand, if you're looking at it politically, then and you look at all of the mistakes that have been made by the other side and you look at all of the decisions that have really been negative upon everybody's lives and you're thinking, well, then there's no way that things can't change in 2022 and into 2024 because people are waking up.
But then you also know that there's a lot of hard-hearted people who just only want their argument, whether they're right or they're wrong.
They only want their argument.
And so, you know, you know, it's still going to be a tough race.
And so I'm just looking at things in the positive light that I think things are going to go better, that the U.S. is going to go out with a bang when Jesus comes back, and we're going to still be able to win, like how the iron curtain lifted, the bamboo curtain will lift, all these other ones, and we're going to have this great revival, lots of salvations before Jesus comes.
But if democracies are going down and it's just nothing but bad, bad, bad, well, the happy thing is at least it looks like this is biblical scenarios and Jesus Christ is coming.
elijah schaffer
Right, but in the meantime, Savannah knows I want to play Call of Duty with Justin Trudeau and Dr. Fauci and get the biggest killstreak ever if I had the chance.
That'd be so fun.
I genuinely would kill their characters.
savanah hernandez
Their characters.
They're NPCs.
pastor john schaffer
And what game is this?
elijah schaffer
Call of Duty.
I want to game with them.
But I like I wanted to.
pastor john schaffer
Last night, I went into the virtual reality AMC.
savanah hernandez
No, Dad.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, my gosh, with my granddaughter.
And I'm telling you, if you guys have never done this before, yes.
And like you, you know, wear the whatever, the headset, and it has a backpack on, and they put things on your hands and things on your feet.
And you actually walk around in this and you can look up, you can look down, you can look at all around, and you're absolutely in this other world, like Raiders of the Lost Ark or whatever universe you went into.
You can touch things, you can pet things, you actually grab a torch and you can light things up with the torch.
It is absolutely amazing, but it's not like a movie.
You are looking all around like I am in this room.
It's a virtual reality and it sounds so unreal, but it is the most virtual virtual reality.
And you're going, wow, if we could do this now, what are we doing 10 years from now?
Because that is so fun.
elijah schaffer
They assume in 10 years that we'll spend at least 30% of our days in the digital world.
pastor john schaffer
Well, now that would be sad if it goes like that.
But one of the interesting things I think 65% of our time.
When you're stepping off, like you realize it's all just ground because it's just a little studio thing you're in.
And that, you know, you're say there's a split open of the ground, but you know that there's really ground there.
So I could put my feet there.
But your mind tells you this is all real because it all looks very real as you're in the midst of it.
And so yet for us here, our minds tell us when we're looking at the way that politics are going and the way democracies are going and the way tyranny is going, that, you know, this is the way that it is.
But you know what?
We can walk on water.
We can step past these things and we can have our reality of hope and our reality of trying to bring in something better in the meantime until bad finally takes over.
I think we can not impose, but we can suggest and greatly influence our personal virtual reality.
elijah schaffer
No, I do.
I agree with that.
I want to talk a little more about this, but obviously, you guys, like you said, we spend an increasingly more amount of time every single day, it seems like, online.
And if you're watching this, you are connected to the internet.
And right now, your digital ID is being tracked and traced, and people are using your information to sell it to companies who literally hate you, which is why you've got to bounce your digital footprint, your ability to be targeted.
You've got to shield that.
But obviously, you don't have the technology to do it, but my friends at ExpressVPN do.
So if you don't know what a VPN is, or as people call them the Vippins, protect yourself with one of these.
It essentially does is bounce around your ID to different servers through trusted servers around the world and masks your activity online, which is first of all, very good to protect your information.
You can download this in just a couple of minutes to get it set up on any device that is connected to the internet.
And it's pretty much, if you're not using a VPN, it's one of the key things that you should be doing if you care about your cybersecurity.
And I trust ExpressVPN.
And the reason why I like them the most personally is because it's the only VPN I've used that did not slow down my devices.
So sometimes things run in the background and it slows your device.
This does not.
So if you use my link, expressvpn.com slash offensive today, you get an extra three months free of a one-year package.
That's expressvpn, e-x-p-r-e-s-s-v-p-n.com slash offensive.
Visit expressvpn.com slash offensive to learn more.
I encourage you to get the three months free by checking it out and always remembering that one of the coolest side things are, number one, when you're like in China or places with firewalls, you can get past their firewalls and access websites that are blocked.
And also as things are weird and certain countries block certain things, you can go change your country like manually and pretend the website thinks you're in like Ireland and you can access different content.
It's really cool.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, so I have a question about that.
Okay, so when mom and I would do cruises, I'd have to turn off the Apple VPN in order to get onto their internet because it would be like some sort of competing or some way that I couldn't get on.
elijah schaffer
On a cruise.
pastor john schaffer
So yeah, I'd have to like switch it to off.
And then also, you know, if you have a filtering, like a Christian filtering software on there or whatever, and it uses a VPN, there's all these little hurdles you have to go through.
So, but this is just some VPN.
What else about this?
elijah schaffer
Well, the VPN, well, yeah, I'm saying that the nice thing about this is it's fast and it doesn't slow down your device.
But on cruises and all these types of things, if they have a block on it, then you just need to find the right country to jump to.
But sometimes what you can do with those things is you just, you sign on to those accounts.
That's different.
It's like international waters and satellites.
It's a different type of internet.
It's not connected to like the main, the mainframe.
It's on a wire.
But then you would just, you could just turn it off for a second, sign on, then turn it back on, and you'll be fine.
But you just don't want it to, you don't want it to bounce to a different country.
I mean, you're literally not in a country if you're on a cruise.
It's kind of a weird exception.
You're in international waters.
So if you, I would say this, probably if you don't live in a country, I don't know if this would work that well for you if you live in international waters and not in a nation that has an IP address.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, like that guy that had no country and he slept at the airport.
elijah schaffer
What happens?
Hey, Savannah, you can jump countries, my dad.
But what happens if you're not in a country?
savanah hernandez
What happens if you're on a cruise and you're maybe heading to Africa and the internet's bad and then a satellite explodes?
But like, what about this?
elijah schaffer
Okay, so I have a question.
So Elon Musk is sending people from Mars.
savanah hernandez
Neuralink targets your brain.
And then your VPN doesn't work.
elijah schaffer
If I'm in the middle of the galaxy on my way to Mars, which country would I virtually work on the metaverse?
pastor john schaffer
Virtually, virtually.
elijah schaffer
That's his question.
savanah hernandez
In the metaverse.
On my metaverse computer, would the VPN work?
elijah schaffer
You know, they told me the problem.
So if the VPN, it's like, wait, what?
savanah hernandez
If my choice on me.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, Elijah, I'll text you on that one.
Just text me and I'll tell you and Kezia what to do.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I know, no, but it's like, yeah, how does the V, that's the thing.
So, Moink Box, how does that help my marriage?
It's just me.
unidentified
I don't know.
pastor john schaffer
You'll have food.
You'll have food.
unidentified
So, if I'm on a deserted island, moink box would still deliver there.
elijah schaffer
That should be one of our ad things.
Be like, the VPN, it won't solve your marriage problems, but it will solve other things.
unidentified
It's like, I don't know, the hardest question.
It won't hide your infidelity, but it will hide your hardest question ever.
elijah schaffer
I'm in international waters on a cruise mine with, and I'm a Christian with filtering apps to avoid adult content popping up on my phone.
How does that VPN work in that situation?
unidentified
I'm like, that's a very math questions that make no sense.
If you have five spins on your daughter and a dinosaur is chasing you.
elijah schaffer
I have to bring that up.
Okay, hold up.
pastor john schaffer
Savannah showed this to me.
elijah schaffer
Look at what the math homework is.
This is so crazy.
This is real math homework, allegedly.
Look at this.
Go to my screen.
Last night, my wife brought to me a picture of math homework pictured below from a student that she was tutoring that is in the Troy R3 school district.
Oh, is Troy?
That might be California.
Is that California?
pastor john schaffer
It might be because it's like a high school named Troy.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
Clearly, this is not math homework, but an attempt to normalize sexual activity of students behind the backs of parents.
Read this entire thing.
Look at this.
This is math homework.
Y equals X plus 2, 3 X.
Okay, so we're just doing this random moving around variables.
Fine.
Angelou was sexually abused by her mother's blank at age eight, which shaped her career choices and motivation for writing.
savanah hernandez
Dad, can you read the next one?
elijah schaffer
My boyfriend.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, and he was, he kind of chuckled because it's a math equation, not because of what happened, what he's reading.
Yes, anyways, this is funny.
elijah schaffer
Sexual abuse math question.
savanah hernandez
I just wanted your dad's reading.
pastor john schaffer
It is odd.
It is odd.
Okay, so Y.
I mean, X equals Y minus 1, Y equals negative 4.
Yes, I'm sorry.
Right.
elijah schaffer
It has been a while.
pastor john schaffer
Negative 4X.
I know.
elijah schaffer
I had a couple days ago.
pastor john schaffer
I actually did teach this stuff to him, but I didn't know what I was teaching afterwards.
unidentified
Okay.
pastor john schaffer
So trying to support her son as a single mother, she worked as a pimp, prostitute, and a bookie drug dealer.
And then this, of course, has more of the equations there, ABC, which I guess you guys see right there on your screen.
savanah hernandez
The answer is.
pastor john schaffer
And nightclub dancer.
Now, I will tell you, though, that I do know it's not just a math equation.
I know somebody who was the pimp and the madame, who are now a pastor and pastor's wife.
So, I mean, hey, if you can do a math equation.
But anyway, no, it is odd, and it is odd to do that for kids.
But I'll tell you, the neat thing to do for kids is today my granddaughter got to miss math class for chapel, and she got to read scripture in chapel.
That's a much better thing than this.
elijah schaffer
Yes.
On that note.
On that note, thanks for watching another episode of Slightly Offensive, The Best Worst Show on Blaze TV with your top 17 host, me, Elijah Schaefer.
I was joined by Larynjita's dad, who.
pastor john schaffer
God bless you guys.
savanah hernandez
So much angels.
pastor john schaffer
He's not laughing at his dad.
savanah hernandez
We would never.
We would never.
elijah schaffer
I'm not.
I just, I always, when we come to the social media part, we always ask people where to follow them.
But we did say he's handsome.
He is single.
No one can replace my mother.
savanah hernandez
He's well-tanned.
elijah schaffer
But he's looking for friends and stuff.
And he's, you know, he's out.
He's he's definitely a unlike Moink Box.
He's not just a piece of meat.
He's got the brains and the looks to go with it.
pastor john schaffer
If somebody is a high-caliber woman that loves the Lord and, of course, there's other things going for you, you know, you can always contact Elijah.
But for now, I am meeting a few really nice ladies.
So we'll see what the Lord does.
unidentified
Okay, guys.
savanah hernandez
I'm like, so you really are your father, Sonny.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I'm like, you're like, oh, that's Kez's friend.
No, that's my Sancha.
Sanchita?
Dude, you know her?
I said that to Kez.
That's why my LA's coming out.
pastor john schaffer
Or a Bachelor to the Rapture.
elijah schaffer
No, I don't think so.
I don't think, dude, unlike, here's what I think.
I think, especially, this world is a very, it's interesting.
I told Kez this, I go, Kez, one thing I know some people like to live alone.
I go, what I like, and I think everyone needs this.
I have one ally.
Like, her and I will not get divorced for whatever reason.
We'll work through whatever, if anything ever happens in our life.
We've decided that it's just like it's not a contract, it's not a paper, it's a spiritual thing, and we're never leaving each other.
It's like we needed one person that's just going to be stick with you, literally, like you did till the end, till their end.
Like, you have to know that there's somebody who's loyal to you that's not going to leave you and abandon you because people are so ridiculous these days.
pastor john schaffer
And it's like, and you need someone to talk to regularly that can deal with your well, hey, people have imaginations and people have accusations and people have hurt, and then people have lies and all that type of stuff.
And that's why sometimes people do need to talk to, you know, whoever's doing the marriage Bible study in your church or a pastor, because we do want to hold marriages together and we do want things to heal for sure.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, don't divorce, by the way.
Work through most of your issues.
That's a crazy thing.
The no-fault divorce thing is so insane.
I'm not going to get into that today.
We could talk about that another day.
But the idea of just like, oh, they did something like divorce.
It's very odd.
Or like, oh, they have a problem.
You know, people can work on problems.
And if you're going to get divorced, I told Kez, I go, I realize the reason why it's always so complicated because once you're married, you're always married, like spiritually.
So it's like, that's why it's always, there's no right way to do it.
I mean, once you're divorced, people are friends with their ex, some people are enemies.
Like, there's never like a good situation.
It's always awkward because you're tied to them, even if you're not having sex with them and you're not in a legal union.
pastor john schaffer
Especially if there's kids.
elijah schaffer
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, you're just tied.
So work through your stuff, especially if you have kids.
It's not going to help you.
And unless the person is like genuinely endangering you and you're going to die or something, and they're like, you can work through most things.
And I just want to encourage people to get into a culture to where marriages work through the tough times rather than just divorce at the first sign of problems.
Because, you know, like, I think, what, 50% of marriages end in the first two years?
pastor john schaffer
Well, the thing is, people give up on each other.
They don't believe in each other.
And one thought on that too is: if you get, if you get through things and you just forgive each other, or even you don't forgive each other well, but you just hang in there with each other.
When you get old, you'll have each other to push each other's wheelchairs.
Kind of a little exaggeration there, but seriously, I've watched couples stay together and they get along when they're older, even though they didn't get along when they were younger.
But then all of a sudden, they're best friends when they're older.
And so it really does work later on.
It all pays off.
All the fights pay off now for later.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I was going to say, but because I'm going to be on a budget, I'm going to get Kez a regular wheelchair.
I'm going to get a motorized one.
I'm going to give her a rope and I'm just going to pull her around.
And then just don't get around any Canadian police horses.
pastor john schaffer
Not with the car, though.
Don't pull her with the car.
elijah schaffer
No, with my motorized.
But Canadian police horses will, I heard those bikes have the motorized ones have a defect where they throw you under the feet of Clydesdale.
unidentified
You know what?
pastor john schaffer
We need to pray for those freedom people there.
elijah schaffer
Why don't you pray for them?
pastor john schaffer
Yeah, absolutely.
Let's go ahead and pray.
Everybody just agree.
Lord, we understand there's moms and kids and dads and grandpas and truckers and everybody, Lord, who's crying out for freedom in Canada.
And Lord God, we know it's not only the few million and then the ones that they shut off their bank accounts.
But Lord God, we know that there's other millions that agree with them, but everybody is just so scared.
They're so scared of the takeover and of the tyranny.
And so, Lord God, we pray that you would just help those people, Lord, give them peace.
The ones that they've arrested and taken to jail, Lord, just like in our system, Lord God, I know we've treated people from a year ago unfairly without fair due process.
Lord God, we pray that you would help those people, the people in our land.
Lord, help people to understand, Lord, that they live in the land of the free, Lord God, even though for right now it really isn't.
So, Lord God, please do something over there.
Please give freedom, Lord God, to them, and please deliver them from the things that are hurting them badly now and shutting them down.
In Jesus' name, amen.
unidentified
Amen.
elijah schaffer
Thank you for that.
unidentified
I don't remember the last time we had someone pray on our show.
savanah hernandez
This was such a wholesome show.
We needed this show.
We needed laryngitis pastor dad to come and help white pillow us.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, this is the new arc.
This is the first episode in the new arc of finding hope in the world.
But also, just so you know, we will have some crazy TikToks, but I think we're going to go back to having funny people on sometimes just for like the roast as like a relief, as a comic relief.
Like every once in a while, we'll just have like a special episode that's dedicated to comedy.
pastor john schaffer
But you know what?
elijah schaffer
It's like, so it's occasionally, but I think we need to have some more real discussion.
pastor john schaffer
If somebody didn't like me or thinks that I didn't know my stuff, which I didn't, then they can at least laugh, right?
Because it can be comedy relief.
So there we go.
See, then I have an excuse for being on.
elijah schaffer
No, this is this show is marijuana.
And I was explaining that to my intern.
He was like, that's how I describe it to anybody who works here.
Savannah knows this.
This show is meant to be a gateway drug to new ideas and never go too far into like the rabbit hole that, you know, we're going to get banned.
And so like, you can, we just want you to know that there are those ideas and then you can go choose what you want to listen to.
So you like God, then pursue God more.
You don't like God, the show is not just about God.
It's like you like, we like to just touch on a lot of things and let people know that there's all these things and people are saying things and you're not crazy for thinking it.
And that's just shows the show actually has a purpose.
pastor john schaffer
It's dealing with reality because real life has people that believe like I do, people that believe like you do, and people that are in the middle place, people that are just media focused.
And all those people have to talk together.
elijah schaffer
But you know what?
My new intern is like a radical, like he's like the most down-to-earth guy who like really, really loves God.
He's a fighting spirit and he's really helped me a lot.
And he's going to, I think he's going to be more involved in the show.
pastor john schaffer
Explain to me, internist, and I have to meet the person, but what is that?
Like, I know what an intern is, like, for ministry, but I mean, like, for this show, somebody that you're mentoring to do this kind of thing?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, no, like he's, uh, he's, he's basically, I'm figuring out, like, I, because I work for, I work for Blaze Media, but I have a company, Slightly Offensive Incorporated, that's an actual corporation that has employees or like, and like has its own financing.
And then Blaze like leases my show from me, like for a specific amount of time.
pastor john schaffer
This particular one.
elijah schaffer
It's basically like how South Park was on Comedy Central Viacom.
Now it's like on NBC, I think, or Paramount or what is it on something?
NBC.
So me, like, you could take a show that's technically a Comedy Central show, but it could move to another thing.
So this is like, this is just a show that is a Blaze TV show right now.
And I don't plan on leaving, but I am this show is going to be seeing the coolest upgrade in the next month or so, which you're going to get better content, more content, and in ways that you can interact that you didn't expect.
And Savannah knows, as much as I love abusing minorities and making them work for gum.
pastor john schaffer
Savannah, I know he loves you.
elijah schaffer
No, Savannah needs.
unidentified
No, no, no.
elijah schaffer
Savannah needs, Savannah, people don't realize, has been really growing in popularity and has just been getting so many cool opportunities to go on podcasts.
You were on Gina, Gina's podcast, which they can look out.
And her career has just been skyrocketing.
And so it's like, it's not that.
pastor john schaffer
Congratulations.
elijah schaffer
It's not that she doesn't have time for certain things.
It's just that like, I want to make sure that I'm giving her the space to grow in the way that she needs to grow and then fill in that gap with somebody else.
But I don't have the role defined.
So it's an intern because I have nothing else to call it.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, gotcha.
And Savannah, you know that his grandparents love you.
savanah hernandez
I love them.
He always sends me pictures of grandma and I'm like, oh, I love her.
pastor john schaffer
So a lot of people do.
If they get tired of Elijah, they can always look at you.
elijah schaffer
I always tell people, if you get tired of me, like, I actually tell people sometimes, like the people that write comments or emails about the show, I go, take a break from it.
Like, genuinely, there's people who will be like, it's getting to me.
I'm like, dude, take a couple weeks, take a month off of political content and then come back and see if like, don't let, don't, people will be like, I hate your show.
It ruins my heart.
I go, then don't watch it.
Why would you watch something that hurts your brain?
Like, don't, don't do that.
If it's good hurt, like growing pains, like you're trying to grasp things or things, you know, you didn't know that there was like incestual brothers that are allowed on TikTok, but you can't talk about the vaccine, like how crazy the world is.
But maybe, yeah, then that's that kind of good hurt where you're like, wow, I can't believe that's real.
And you kind of understand the wickedness of the world.
But if the show is damaging you, please don't watch it.
But if you like the show and you make it this far in the show, make sure you leave a five-star review.
We'd love to hear from you guys.
You guys are so good at writing reviews and they're free.
They don't cost you anything and they're amazing.
I'll have you, do you have your glasses?
Can you read right now?
pastor john schaffer
You know what?
I can.
I can read.
I don't have my glasses, but I can read.
elijah schaffer
Make sure you read their name too.
pastor john schaffer
Okay.
elijah schaffer
Review one and stuff.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, wait.
I think I can read.
elijah schaffer
Right.
pastor john schaffer
Okay.
So it says, read and review, blah, blah, blah.
elijah schaffer
It says, is that easy to read right there on the screen?
Is that easier?
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
elijah schaffer
No, right there, right there.
unidentified
Okay.
pastor john schaffer
The podcast is based and epic.
And it says, in Elijah, with his exquisite roast of the, oh, well, okay.
That would be.
See, when I read those kind of things, it's hard for me.
Like those people don't want to see that because I understand you're meaning it in a way of teaching or sharing something, but not in a way of actually hurting people.
elijah schaffer
You can change mentally ill to satanic or demonic so you don't say it on that.
You can change the world.
pastor john schaffer
Right, because the fact is so many people are on medication, including Christians that need, you know, just we're not talking about genuine mental illness.
elijah schaffer
We're talking about people who are, again, who embraced it and are promoting it.
People that are saying, okay, it's good to be mentally ill.
pastor john schaffer
Gotcha.
elijah schaffer
That's what we like.
We don't roast fucking people.
We roast people pushing obesity.
pastor john schaffer
Roast the merely mentally ill.
elijah schaffer
Okay, I can't read it.
unidentified
Sav.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, and Sav with her.
Oh, Savannah.
With her angry Lantinks rage.
I've never heard of Lantinks.
And as a bonus, with any John Doyle.
Okay, John Doyle, I like listening to him.
Okay.
And with any John Doyle appearance, you will be ready to take on the Antichrist.
Well, that would be, hopefully the rapture will come before that guy's on the scene.
elijah schaffer
Do you know how you know it's cool?
In the last days, guess what?
All the Christian right has become, again, to fight the spirit of the Antichrist.
That's the current popular movement right now.
Everyone's starting to realize it's satanic.
And now everyone, that's like, it's weird that in the age where things are becoming like the Antichrist, that's the most popular statement.
It's like, let's resist the Antichrist.
And everyone kind of realizes it's the end days.
Anyway, next podcast review.
We got one more.
pastor john schaffer
Okay, it says, I love listening.
Oh, I see.
unidentified
Okay.
elijah schaffer
Right.
pastor john schaffer
People are writing this.
Guys, I absolutely love listening to y'all and your guests.
I pop the headphones in at work and listen to your shows and just zip through my day while being entertained and informed.
See, I just figured out that people are just writing these things to you.
I thought this was something that you wrote or something.
elijah schaffer
These are podcast reviews.
unidentified
Okay, gotcha.
pastor john schaffer
Gotcha.
elijah schaffer
These are reviews of the show.
pastor john schaffer
Gotcha.
Okay.
So I love listening.
unidentified
Oh, wait.
elijah schaffer
You read it.
unidentified
Okay.
pastor john schaffer
Okay.
Well, she put the same one up.
elijah schaffer
No, she's showing you there's like five stars.
Like it's like these are good reviews of people that like the show telling us they like the show and what they like about it.
And so we appreciate it.
And so in order to tell them, because because we're demonetized, we don't make any money on the show.
pastor john schaffer
Man, I thought you were saying you were demonet.
We don't make no demonetized.
elijah schaffer
We don't make money.
And so we need people to watch the show because the viewership sustains it.
And so we tell people to leave a five-star review because like we don't make money, but advertisers, we can get people.
Tech companies don't.
pastor john schaffer
Like a Yelp review or something.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, because advertisers will see that people love our show.
They go read our reviews.
And if there's like 10,000 amazing reviews of the show, you go, they go, oh, these people like the show.
We'll sell our product on the show.
And then we're able to pay Sav's car payment.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, no, yeah.
Hey, people, let him sell your products.
savanah hernandez
I know.
My car has duct tape on it.
Like it actually does.
So it's a good idea.
We're going to leave your reviews.
elijah schaffer
Savannah, where can people follow you?
Where can they find you?
savanah hernandez
People can follow me on YouTube at Sav Says in the Rapid Fire with Savannah Hernandez podcast on all places where podcasts are streamed.
elijah schaffer
And make sure that you do follow her on everything because remember, the show could get taken off any day.
And probably, I told you, if this show gets taken off, I'll talk about it on Alex Jones.
That's where you'll hear from me with my new plan.
But also, if you want to kind of know what happened, you'll probably have to go to Savannah's profile and she'll probably tell you guys.
savanah hernandez
I'll tell you.
Don't worry.
I'll keep everybody in the loop.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, so if you want to kind of stay, and she also has takes where she takes greater risks on her show and gets in trouble a lot more with censorship.
savanah hernandez
I really do.
elijah schaffer
But she also doesn't employ anyone.
So if I take risks, I'm taking Sav's risks too.
And I don't want to, we know, she's already got duct tape on the car.
savanah hernandez
Yeah.
I can take risks.
Elijah can't.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
Anyway, thank you guys so much again for watching.
Don't forget to become an official SOB.
There are two ways you become an official SOB.
Number one, and that slightly offensive backer, remember?
Everything in this show is tongue-in-cheek, just so you know.
Gotcha.
unidentified
Yes.
elijah schaffer
Literally.
All right.
So you join the Telegram, which is free.
And that's a good way to stay in the community.
And you get all the memes and the madness and the craziness.
And there's no censorship on Telegram.
So that's good.
Only rule, there's like a few rules.
One of the main rules, no posting porn, no posting gore.
Like, meaning like we're censorship free.
And also, you can't intentionally cause do illegal activity.
So you're not, that's basically my rules.
And like, if you're intentionally causing harm to someone, and I'm not talking about like, no, if you're really like, if you start sending people in the group, like gross stuff, I'm just going to block you for being a piece of shit.
And that's literally like the one, I wasn't trying to curse, but that's like the, that's like the Michael Stanley curse.
unidentified
Okay.
pastor john schaffer
All right.
elijah schaffer
It's not really cursing, though.
It's technically just.
pastor john schaffer
What is that new app that Trump is putting out?
elijah schaffer
Truth.
pastor john schaffer
Oh, truth.
unidentified
Okay.
pastor john schaffer
But if it's going to be on Apple, what if Apple shut down the app?
elijah schaffer
Well, I'm excited about it.
Sav's excited about.
We're just going to, we're going to see.
It's kind of weird.
savanah hernandez
We're going to see where it goes.
It's kind of like Getter.
It launched and then people did investigations into it.
We kind of saw what it was about.
So I feel like this is kind of like round two of that, you know?
pastor john schaffer
But when they start shutting people down, won't they shut down apps that aren't, you know?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, so we'll just see what's going on.
We don't, there's, I like to be really honest.
I'm doing a full investigation into the company and the app, but I don't do it in a maniacal way.
I'm not a leftist trying to take down Trump.
I actually want it to succeed.
I just don't want bad companies to swindle people into thinking they're the answer when they're not.
So I'm doing a full investigation and we actually permanently ruined Getter's public reputation.
Although I still use it.
I always tell people this.
I still use it.
If you're an app, my goal is not to ruin the app.
My goal is to tell the truth about what the app's about.
And so I'll use Getter.
I'll use Twitter.
I'll use all the apps that I can use.
But I also don't tell people they're good.
I'm not going to say go get her.
Getter's the answer.
No, Getter will censor you too.
But like also just go on everything and get your platform out to as many people because most people are just using apps that don't think about the implications of their censorship.
They don't know what's going on.
But Telegram is where you can really, Telegram and Gab are where things are really good right now.
pastor john schaffer
And I know I've got a sister that's into all these things.
So and I keep being told to get to download this.
I just have to.
elijah schaffer
I feel like Gab's a better place to date than dating apps.
Like the groups that you can join, because it's mostly right-wing Christian people that use the app.
And it's like a very Christian, positive, politically open-minded platform.
And there's like a lot of people, like a lot of groups you can join and like ministries and things you can like get involved in.
And it's one of the most used apps in the world.
I mean, it's got so much traffic.
What is it?
Like, I think like 30, 40 million users a month or something like that.
I think Twitter only has like 70 million and they're like 30 or 40.
They're like almost like half the size of Twitter.
pastor john schaffer
You know, I think that, like, for instance, a dating app, if they put conservative or they put moderate.
Now, if they put liberal, you know for sure what they mean.
But I think sometimes when they put Christian, they put moderate, is they're really saying, I'm a conservative, but I'm middle of the road.
Like if these people are more right on this or if these people are more right on that.
And so they're not as politically minded of a person.
And so they're using the word moderate in their own definition way, but they really might still be a conservative.
It's kind of interesting.
elijah schaffer
Where I was in 2018 as I started this journey and realize it's an unrealistic worldview.
But on that note, make sure you sign up at Blaze TV.
I've never at the show.
Blazetv.com.
I wonder why.
Blazev.com/slash Elijah to become an official member, and this helps us because, guys, uh, you just become a member.
pastor john schaffer
Well, you said slash Elijah because of the website.
unidentified
I go do not slash Elijah, don't slash Elijah, but go to blazetv.com slash and uh tomorrow, I'm not tomorrow, um, Friday's show.
elijah schaffer
We have the newest member of our diversity collection joining us, and we will begin to vote the naming, and that'll start.
So, every week in Black History Month, we bring a new Barbie into the diversity collection.
And so, we've started this last year, and now we are in another year, and we're growing the collection.
So, make sure you stay tuned for that.
Anyway, have a great rest of the week, and may God bless the United States of America.
