Time Text
Reading to your children is one of the most important, as well as enjoyable and heartwarming, activities that you can do with them.
Right after sledding with them every single time a decent snowstorm whips through, of course.
Yet, so many of today's children's stories are part of the non-white glorification indoctrination program that it's almost mandatory to revert to the classics.
Looking back at the kids' books from the 1940s through 1990s that my parents read to me and then passed down to us to read to our kids, there's not much multi-culti garbage, but there's also a lot of fluff with no real morals.
And you can absolutely see the diversity worship creep in toward the newer stuff.
But you don't have to just rely on Aesop's fables and the Brothers Grimm anymore, because our side is starting to churn out wholesome white kid literature in greater numbers.
And we're honored to have one of those illustrators with us this week.
So, mr producer, let's get down to business.
Welcome everyone
to episode 78 of Full House, the world's most white kid supportive show for white fathers, aspiring ones and the whole bio fam.
I am your regular bedtime story reading host, Coach Finstock, back with another two hours of literary goodness in a gruesome world.
Before we meet the birth panel tonight, though, big thanks to a hearty stable of Full House supporters this week.
So, to Big Jim, Longshanks, Jim Dugan, Carlos, and Jack the Intern, thank you for not losing all of your money on GameStop and AMC this week.
Much appreciated, fellas.
All right, on to the birth panel.
First up, when he was a boy, his father, Leif Erickson, would read to him exclusively from the Edda, which provided him with a solid foundation he's used ever since to navigate Midgard as we approach Ragnarok.
Sam, welcome, sir.
Yeah, yeah, I remember my mother read me a lot of like Dr. Seuss books when I was really little for some reason.
That's what I remember.
Yep, we got a bunch of those too.
And a lot of that stuff, yeah, it's better than nothing, right?
But there's not a whole lot of spirit or soul to him.
No, and he was a commie, too, as I understand it.
Maybe even a Jew, but I forget about that.
But he was like, he was very much into racial integration.
And that was what was behind all those different characters and the funny words and all that type of thing.
But yeah, how's it going?
Yeah, good.
Good.
Good, man.
It's an ice storm going on.
But other than that, it's going good.
Do you still go out and sled with your kids when a good one comes through or you jaded by it?
Yeah, you know, you got to have a good place to go.
And it's sad to say, but it's like really discouraged around here.
I do know of a couple hills I went on when I was little, but it's all overgrown.
They don't keep them cut down now.
And I think it's to discourage people from doing it.
But our thing is more ice skating.
And I sent you guys a picture the other night.
We were out on the ice drink.
It was, well, I guess I can't get too specific because some jerk will try to hunt us down.
But it was kind of a themed event, if you could see in the picture.
And it was a lot of fun.
And man, ton of chicks there.
I mean, teenagers.
I'm just saying.
If you were a teenage boy, man, it had to be 20 to 1.
I don't know why there are so few guys there.
There are a couple guys there, but a lot of girls there for young guys to meet.
Good stuff.
Yeah.
Show Junior the ropes.
Yeah, we mentioned roller skating at the end of last show and Timmy T.
And I actually ordered a pair of ice skates the other day because it is cold enough here that I could actually go out on a lake or on a pond and get back at it.
I haven't done that in years.
It's great exercise, you know, and it's great to learn when you're younger.
I didn't really cultivate the love of it until I was in high school.
And then I've been skating ever since and I'm pretty good.
But my kids all started when they were very, very small.
And they're all excellent skaters.
Pretty good way to control the population of your indoor entertainment arena too.
Just ice skates.
All right.
Next up, his collection of children's literature is curiously comprised of nothing aside from German youth publications from 1933 to 1945 and obscure texts in Gaelic in which characters marked by the union jack are all obese, dumb, and bloodthirsty.
Potato Smasher.
No, I can't read jokes this week, please.
Stole your opener.
So Dr. Seuss was pretty cool because he cheated on his wife for like 16 years while she was dying of cancer and then married the mistress.
I'm just kidding.
That is not behavior.
Yeah.
But that was a better way to put it out there than being serious.
Yeah, I looked him up and there was no J confirmation on there.
But yeah, a lot of lefty themes and Lorax and weird stuff that doesn't seem natural.
I agree.
Yeah, but we have a bunch of kids' books and a lot of them were given to us by Normie's.
So it's kind of whatever.
We went through and threw away a bunch of them that were garbage, but I couldn't tell you almost any of them by name because they're just like dumb kids' books and we let them grab one and we read it to them.
Yeah.
It's whatever.
You want like books?
I can give you book recommendations.
You want kids' book recommendations?
We have a list for that.
A lot of the stuff that my parents gave me, I could see in the 70s and 80s for sure was like inner city, you know, the snowy day and the black kid, the single mom, and he goes out to have an adventure in New York City in the snow.
I'm like, all right, I see what's going on here.
Yeah, I really didn't need that to appreciate Harlem in the winter.
Next up, I can't think of a single father prouder and more overjoyed to read to his little lad every single night.
JO, am I wrong?
Well, he likes to eat his Elmo book.
He thinks it's absolutely delicious and it makes crinkle sounds and it's fun.
I didn't know Jayo was a single father now.
I fake read to him.
Like, because he's just too little to get it at all.
And I'll just, I'll make stuff up as I go along while I'm reading to him.
It might not even be a book with words in it, but he just thinks it's fun to stare at me while I talk.
And I do so kind of animatedly, and he just has a good time of it.
That's a good point.
I forgot that he is still quite the little youngster.
And I remember when we had our first, I put our infant on my lap and was reading him a book.
And my mom was like, you know, he doesn't understand the damn thing about what you're doing there.
I was like, yeah, I know, you know, first dad excitement and stuff, but never too young to start.
Yeah.
All right.
Finally, our very special and patient guest this week.
He is, of course, the illustrator of My Mirror Tells a Story.
He's also been in our cause for years, is a proud father himself, and is about as good and decent a person as anyone I've met in this thing.
Except for Nathaniel Scott, of course.
Nobody can take the prize from him.
Anthony Coulter, you're not too bad, and we are honored to welcome you onto Full House.
How are you?
Well, that's quite an intro.
Thank you, Coach.
You know, I've been a long time listener, so it's an honor to be here.
We're so glad to have you.
And we would have had you on earlier, but I wanted to make sure that I had this wonderful hardcover copy in my hands.
I'll do the Rush Limbaugh thing.
You know, I got it in my fingers here.
I wanted to make sure I got it.
It did take a while to arrive from, I ordered it from the white people's press, of course.
We'll do that.
The bottom line up front is where can you get this thing?
I got it straight from White People's Press, which was less expensive than Amazon, surprisingly.
But are those the only two outlets where you can find the sucker or is it elsewhere too?
Yeah, that's right.
For the time being, it's still on Amazon.
Yeah, good point.
We've seen a lot of wholesome good stuff get completely eviscerated or obliterated from that site.
But yeah, tell us, just give us a little bit of backstory on this story.
How did it start?
What was the motivation?
And yeah, what were you thinking when you got this rolling?
Yeah, so the author contacted me and said he had a great idea for children's book.
And this was actually about three years ago.
And he pitched it to me.
I really liked it.
So, you know, we worked through it and I got him some initial sketches.
We started going through it.
And then the original publisher we were going to use, it didn't pan out for exactly those reasons, some of the censorship that was going on.
And so we kind of shelved it for a while.
But, you know, fortunately, White People's Press took it up and, you know, couldn't be happier with it.
It's my first book, but, you know, like you said, I've been sort of in this thing for a while.
Sure.
So, yeah, the book itself, it's just to get a little synopsis, if I could, it's, you know, about it's about a boy who is really not understanding this world.
You know, it goes through his time in school and how he's picked on and he's taught by his teachers that he is less than these other people and that the heroes of American society are people like Harriet Tubman and Martin Luther King Jr.
And so he goes to his parents and he's he says, you know, why aren't any of our people included in this?
And, you know, I'm not going to spoil the whole thing, but basically the moral is to be proud of who you are.
And I really wanted to put this out there, even though it is largely propaganda, because that's there's just such a need for it.
You know, there's so many stories that are doing the exact opposite of this.
And, you know, I thought I have this talent.
I sort of felt an obligation to get something out there.
And plus, You know, it's filling the need that I um saw the book that I wanted to read to my daughter, you know, right?
Uh, I just realized I, I, in my enthusiasm to crack right into this, buddy, I forgot to ask you.
We'll pause right there, and we're not letting you skate through ethnicity, religion, and fatherhood status, even if we just do it real quick.
Yeah, all right, okay, so religion.
Um, it's it's a tough one for me to pin down, but at this point, I say I'm a cultural Christian and I was kind of an atheist for a decade or so, grew up Protestant, and I don't really go to church, but I do pray every day.
And yeah, I could get into it more if we wanted to later.
That's all right.
Yeah, there's a big cross in your avatar in our chat here, so uh, it's pretty pretty clear that you're a Christian, brother.
That's good, yeah.
And then at least you're not a Protestant anymore, yeah.
So, the ethnicity I have a diverse mix, you know, American, um, but majority German, quarter English, and then a little bit of uh Swedish mixed in there for decent decent blend there, and you said, and you have a daughter, right?
Yeah, yeah, she's um, just coming into toddler status.
Good stuff, hey, yeah, and the last time we talked, you said that you guys were uh definitely on board to have more, so we wish you well with that.
Um, I, if you don't mind, I was going to share my experience with this book because I picked it up for two reasons: one, of course, to read to the kids, and two, to support our guys and our cause.
You know, you mentioned you mentioned propaganda there, and our people have been so programmed to think propaganda bad after they've been swimming in left-wing anti-white propaganda for decades, right?
So, the second that you push back just a little bit with your own healthy version of it, it's striking.
Um, and it was striking in this book because you're not used to opening a children's book that touches on our issues and hits that nerve of white kids who are a little bit lost and going through childhoods that are immensely more challenging and painful than almost everybody on this call.
Smasher's a little bit younger, so he grew up in a more diverse time, at least, if not a place.
So, I picked the book, I picked up the book for the kids and to support the cause.
But my problem, what I did wrong, was when it came, I was like, Kids, kids, the book came, and I hyped it and I was like, I can't wait to read this to you.
It's going to be great.
And they were like, What's wrong with Dad?
Like, why is he all excited about this book?
Right?
So, they rebelled a little bit.
They were like, No, Dad, we don't want you to read it to it because they're used to like picking out whatever is on the shelf from what we've accumulated or whatever.
So, audience, beware.
You know, when the book comes in the mail, just play it cool.
Don't hype it up too much for the kids.
But finally, I said, All right, guys, we're reading this book.
Like, let's let's sit down and do it.
And as I started to crack through it, I, full candor, I got choked up and actually a tear rolled down my cheek because, like I said, I'd never encountered something like this in children's literature.
And it kind of just hit me as I'm sitting next to my precious progeny how many millions probably of white kids out there are going through this diversity hellscape in many cases.
Not all of them, of course.
So, it moved me from the start, just the realization of it.
And there's a lot of other good stuff in here, too.
Sam J.O. Smasher, have you guys picked this up yet?
Cards on the table?
No, I want to know where to get it.
All right, whitepeoplespress.com and amazon.com.
My mirror tells a story.
Smasher and Jo.
Shame, shame.
I do not have it yet.
No, I didn't have any money when it was first posted.
And now that, well, the way that like business bank accounts work, everything is really slow.
And so even though it was only like a two-day wait for a check to clear, my attention span is about 120 characters long.
So that's right.
And JO gets a pass because his son is so young still.
But Anthony, like buy it just to support the thing.
I'm just freaking poor right now.
Like if I can't get rid of it, get it for him.
But no, I definitely suggest everyone go get it.
And once I have a little bit of money to throw around, I definitely will.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Put it on the shelf, even if you don't have kids yet, because God knows when it will become some is that.
But there you go.
Order it through White People Press.
Don't order it through Amazon.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
For books, Amazon does not actually get a large cut, but just like F Amazon.
Yeah.
Anthony, did the thought cross your mind that it was a little bit out on the edge to, you know, it does portray white kids in a little bit of a victimhood status when they're in these diverse schools and diverse neighborhoods and all the rest and seeing the kids whiling out.
The psychology or the message behind it, what were you thinking on that?
Yeah, I mean, you do get people who say that we should not play victimhood status because that's what our enemies do.
But there's also a hopeful message in it.
And, you know, in the end, he finds his own comrades and stuff.
So it's not just like, woe is me.
You know, we're so hard done by.
It's really trying to make sense of it because it's so confusing and there's so many lies out there for children.
But yeah, the message is wholesome in that, you know, this is a coming together of this child with his parents and with friends that he new bonds that he forges.
So I think that's kind of a, you know, I understand what you're saying, but it's more, I don't think the criticism holds up when you read through the whole book.
Sure thing.
Yeah.
I'm surprised Amazon has not cut that one off already.
Yeah.
I remember I bought a few a few years ago.
I bought a children's book kind of along the same lines that it was, it was something, it was something, oh man, I'm trying to remember the name.
Maybe on a break, I'll run out and get it off my bookshelf.
But it's called something like The Gift or something like that.
I know that's like a gay documentary or something, I think.
But no, it's called something like maybe it was the girl's name, her gift or something.
And it was about that her gift was her virginity.
And she, the story is about how other people gave their gift away.
And even the author, that's how I heard about the book she's talking about.
She didn't understand that she had a gift and she gave it to somebody who didn't appreciate it.
You know, so the book was written like this, that you have this gift, your virginity, and you should save yourself for marriage and everything.
And guess what?
Amazon wouldn't sell it.
They were selling it and they stopped.
I mean, you know, how much even more innocent and basic is it than what we're talking about here?
Yeah, like what Smasher said, F Amazon.
What was the name of that book, Sam?
It was called Something Like the Gift.
I'll get the name for you.
I remember hearing about that book, actually.
Yeah, I'll get you the author and the name and we'll include it with all this.
Yeah, we'll shill.
Obviously, we did the wholesome white kid gift ideas last Christmas, and that's still up on the site.
If you want to go and look for a whole host of good literature, not just from our people, but from across the decades and even the centuries.
But yeah, we'll bump whatever current our guy stuff is up in the show notes.
So definitely pick this one up.
We're not done with it.
I just want to parse it.
Just got it.
Just got it from the White People's Press.
$23.
Hey, nice.
Good stuff.
Yeah, definitely buy it.
It's 35 color illustrated pages.
There's some history in there, too.
I love this line.
You are as good as anyone, better indeed than most.
This country was made by folks like you from coast to distant coast.
So, yeah, there's some strong language in there, and it's good stuff.
Now, the other thing I wanted to ask you about, Anthony, was there's an Easter egg in there that I missed on first reading and Junior caught on the second go-round.
Tell us about that.
I think I know what you're referring to.
He called it an Easter egg.
I don't know.
Yeah, something that's found on every page.
Bingo, bingo.
Yeah.
Ah, yes, yes, yes.
So there is a dog who really likes his bone, and this makes an appearance on every page.
And it's interesting you bring that up because my daughter, she's not at the point where she can read yet.
In fact, she just, when she goes to read, she tries to imitate.
Eric got out of his system.
Thank you, Smasher.
The self-effacement is great.
But yeah, she just goes, ah, that's her reading.
So right now, but she can say the word dog.
And it's her favorite word.
And every time she sees a dog, she loves it.
And I dedicated the book to her.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
Was this personal for you?
Did you have a rough, diverse upbringing, or is this more observing the passing scene now and dad anxiety about what your daughter is going to possibly have to face?
That's a good question.
It is personal because I went through the public school system, and I don't think you can go through it.
I mean, unless you are like in a completely white area, which I was not.
It was majority white back when I was going to school, but the quantity of blacks that we had was enough that you really struggled.
You had to be afraid for your safety.
You had to, you know, deal with this pandering from the teachers to the blacks.
Black kid in a class brings the whole thing to a screeching halt.
It doesn't take many.
Three black kids, but yes, I think you.
What do they say?
Like, if you just see one black person, they can assimilate relatively because they kind of have to.
But once you get up to three, it's just a jungle.
So it escalates quickly.
Yeah, man.
They talk about demographics by age and that, you know, to look around a mall is a much different experience than to look around a school.
And I saw all the kids getting off the bus locally the other day.
And it's just the one bus stop near me.
I don't know what the total composition of the bus was or the school.
Not a single white kid got off the bus at that stop.
Not one.
And it's only going to get worse much quicker.
Biden just today bumping refugees admissions up back to 125,000 per year on top of DACA almost surely going to get enshrined into law.
Plus, Amnesty is probably on deck right after the COVID bonanza.
So yes, unfortunately, this book is current and it's probably going to get worse as this is.
And more and more of us, of course, are going to have to and choose to homeschool to avoid it or move to the sticks.
Anthony, go ahead.
I was going to say, like, it is partly out of my experience, but I wrote it because I have empathy for these kids that are going through these hard times now.
And I just, you know, I don't think really that we realize how bad things are.
You know, even though we've got all the facts and everything, humans are so good at justifying where they are and normalizing things that I think if and when we win, it'll just we'll look back and just be like, how did they get through, not materially, but spiritually?
It's just crushing the situation.
Yeah, I've mentioned on the show before, you know, I went to public school 90, 95% white.
And the only time that I feared for my life and my physical safety was the one two years older than our grade level black kid who just decided literally without cause to target me and chase me around with snarling fangs and that white foam in the corner of his mouth.
I'm like, what WTF did I do to the point where I had to run inside the room and hide for my safety.
So yeah, all it takes is one.
It doesn't have to be inner city public schools for it to ruin everything.
And especially now because they're not allowed to do anything about it.
If a black kid is the only black kid around and he beats you up or steals something from you or chimps out in general, they can't punish him.
Right.
Disparate discipline, right?
Yeah.
Can't have too many black kids in suspension or else it'll skew the statistics and risk your federal funding, including now.
So, Anthony, you going to do more like this?
You up to more, you know, kid illustration?
I've tossed the idea around, but the short answer is no, not right now.
I, you know, I am doing things behind the scenes, and that takes up a lot of time.
But I do, I miss the art, and I'm sure I'll get back to it at some point.
But right now, I mean, I don't foresee really a lot more public stuff happening.
All right.
Fair enough.
How long did it take you to do this when I can imagine it's a heavy lift?
Yeah.
Well, it helped that I was unemployed when I was illustrating it.
Sure.
And this was much before COVID.
So yeah, it probably took, well, at least a year from start to finish.
And really, really intensive period of three months when I was unemployed.
Damn.
All right.
Well, illustration is, I mean, you know, it takes a lot.
And I could never do, like you mentioned, I think Emily Yukas or somebody before we started the call.
And I could never do what she does.
It's just so tedious.
But it's fun.
If you really love it, then you take passion in it.
And even though it takes a long time to get all these little tiny details right, it's worth it.
Yeah, people think art is easy until they see good art executed well.
Yeah, 100%.
I used to do a lot of digital drawing.
Not nearly, not very good at it, but it was fun to do, you know, when I was in the army, flying all over the world.
It was nice to just bust out either like an iPad with a good pen or a laptop with the actual art tablet and draw.
And I did a lot of drawing growing up.
And it's not, you know, it's not as simple as like making lines.
You have to visualize almost your end goal or at least some halfway point.
I'll tell you what.
And I mean this jokingly, but the only person who understands how difficult good art is to make better than a good artist is somebody who has no aptitude for it whatsoever.
I can't draw or paint anything to save my life.
So I understand how difficult it is for you guys.
Yeah, Junior came up with this game the other day where we created fictional characters on paper.
So first you, you know, whether it's a wizard or a doctor or a warrior or whatever.
So you draw the character and then you keep adding on skills.
Like, is he really smart?
Is he really strong?
Then you give him weapons.
So I played along.
I played along and made my own.
Then I'm looking over at Junior and daughters and I'm like, man, they're doing a better job than I am over here.
Still stuck in like kindergarten art here.
Well, very good.
Anthony, thank you for doing this.
As I was just looking at it too, I wanted to say that you're now the stone toss of children's literature.
And I don't think that's an unfair, you know, there's very like sharp, colorful, you know, representations of reality here.
I'm looking at this white girl with her pigtails getting pulled.
I'm like, what the hell am I doing here?
So thank you for doing this.
I do hope you do more.
This one is going to be on our bookshelf for as long as the kids are under the roof.
And then we're, of course, going to save it for their kids.
So hats off.
Thank you for your service, sir.
Well, thank you.
If I could just toot my own horn a little bit.
You earned it.
What I really like about the book is actually the expressions.
You know, the facial expressions on it because it's not just like, oh, the boy is sad.
It's a more complex emotion that I was trying to portray.
And I think every page sort of has this different set.
And I just really like how all the facial expressions turned out.
How many times do you end up scrapping it?
Right.
You're trying to get this facial expression.
You want this emotion to come off the paper off of this kid's face.
And you sit there and you're even taking your time.
And you're obviously talented, skilled.
You've worked hard.
You've done it a million times.
But do you run into a thing where you're doing it, doing it, doing it, and you're like, man, this just, this is not what I, it's not working.
Throw it in the trash.
I will say it's rare, though.
Because like, if you've, if you've drawn a lot, then, and maybe I, it is just a talent thing.
Like, you have to have kind of an aptitude for it.
I'm not one of those artists who just like envisions.
I will say this.
I don't just like envision something and I have it crystal clear in my mind and then I copy it down on the paper as I see it in my mind.
So in that sense, it does take a little bit of finesse.
And sometimes I'll even go and just like research images online to get inspiration before I like do the full sketch.
Yeah, it's a back and forth.
I guess you're doing it sort of such a tiny bit at a time, too, that you can that you're fine-tuning as you go.
It's not like some big ham-handed thing.
Well, yeah, it's a process.
I worked back and forth with the author, too.
He had some input.
You know, he thought the order of the pages should go a little differently.
And so there were definitely revisions along the way.
This may be a dumb question, but is this digital or how did you actually craft this art?
Yeah, it is digital, but I hand-sketched all of the sketches that I did.
Good stuff.
Yeah.
I like to pretend that I have a heart of stone and I'm a big hard ass, but I'm really a big softy.
And it brought a tear to my eye in a painful way, but in a good way, too.
One more thing about the process.
Yeah, I will say, in general, talking about art, I think it's really good, actually, that we have a lot of quote-unquote autists in our thing.
Yeah, because it kind of is a salvation in a way.
A lot of people escape into video games or whatnot, but what that is, is mastery of a craft.
And really, if we can turn that to our advantage, sort of like the guys with the Wall Street stonk thing did, we can see amazing results.
And so it really is a superpower.
So I know we make a lot of jokes about it, but that kind of attention to detail is something that can be our salvation, something that lifts us up in this time of darkness.
Sure thing.
Are you familiar with the White Art Collective?
I know they're on Twitter and they're sort of perhaps a conglomeration of our guys in music and visual arts.
If not, yes, I am familiar with them.
Okay.
Good people.
I'll put them in the show notes.
Check them out.
And support our artists and our autistes all the same, folks.
I just wanted to add.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Yeah.
My favorite all-time kid story, not in the moralizing sense, is Little Fur Family.
I'll put that in the show notes.
That is a classic in heartwarming.
The little bear running home at sunset gets me every time.
And then Ash Donaldson, I've had this book recommended to me.
Shame on me.
I have not bought it yet, but I will.
A book called Bloot and Bowdoin, which, of course, is Blood and Soil, is fairy tales and assorted things from our perspective.
So check that one out too.
Jo, we only have you for the first half this week.
And even before I knew that fact, I had so many coaches' comfy corners backed up that I wanted to unload with a couple.
And of course, sledding, I said up at the top, like we got this awesome snowstorm that came through.
It snowed over three days here.
And we went out all, we went out three or four days in a row.
I can't remember, but it was just spectacular.
Usually it snows and then it melts, but it's been awesome.
We only brought Potato out twice because he tended to not be such a fan of it.
But just before we went to tape tonight, and we're going to go around the horn with some heartwarming fatherhood tales here, whether they're serious or just lighthearted, I was sitting at the kitchen table on my laptop working on the notes.
And out of the blue, Junior says, Hey, Dad, if you're black-pilled, does that mean you're a normie?
And I said, No, no, no, not at all, Junior.
That just means you're a little bit down on our prospects.
You know, you're not feeling too optimistic.
He goes, Oh, okay, that makes sense.
Well, then, well, then what does red-pilled mean?
And I said, Well, if you're red-pilled, then you're not a normie.
He's like, Well, then what the heck is white-pilled?
And I was like, You remember, I swear to God, you can ask him.
And so he goes, So then what's white-pilled?
And I was like, Well, you've met Stryker, right?
And he said, Yeah.
And I said, Stryker is always white-pilled.
That's white-pilled.
Enthusiastic.
We're going to win.
Positive.
He said, All right.
He shook his head.
He was thinking about it.
He's like, Yeah, yeah, you're right.
So hat tip to Stryker.
Stryker told me once, because I can be a moody bastard.
He said, Coach, men aren't supposed to be moody.
I was like, violently grabs you by the shoulder, puts his head too close to your ear.
He points at you, and then he goes, You know, whatever thing Stryker wants to tell you.
And then he gives you three consecutive hugs.
Each one hurts more than the one before.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
All right.
So it's not just me.
All right.
Sam, over to you.
I know that it's really hard for you with as few kids and as brief a time of being a father as you, but anything you want to pull out of Sam's love box, if that doesn't sound fair, Samuel actually exists.
Sam's good memory.
I like to call that the pleasure chest.
Got him.
Go ahead, Big Guy.
Yeah, you know, when you put that out there, Coach, previously, I was racking my brain because it's difficult to narrow it down or to pick what the right scope is or if it's a 30-second anecdote or if it's a long story.
So I was just thinking about all kinds of things.
I guess I'm going to shoot for that.
It's like a cute thing.
One of my sons, as he was coming up through the homeschool, he was really into hermit crabs.
And, you know, in homeschooling, yeah, they encourage you, if the child has an interest, to encourage the child in the interest and to tie in other hermit crabs are a dollar.
And, you know, and so whatever you are interested in, you can learn about the people who were in that particular hobby or craft or something, or you could learn about the history of it or, you know, when did it become prominent.
You could learn all kinds of things about history and reading and all things.
And I remember I bought him this book about hermit crabs so he could know everything about it.
And he really did get to know everything about it.
And so he had the little terrarium there with a few of them in there.
And he had names for all of them.
And all the names were something like Mr. something, Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Krabby, Mr. Racy, and things.
And he believed, and he could make you believe that these things actually had behavior.
I mean, they crawl like, you know, a quarter inch every 10 minutes, you know.
But he would say, like, well, this one, he, he is mean to the other ones.
Like, how long would you have to watch these things to figure out that they just sort of splashed around a little bit?
Hold on.
How you build that kind of stuff up when you're a little guy?
Yeah, I think maybe part of it was his imagination, too.
But he had like a whole, like, there were four or five of them, and they were all had a different story behind them.
You know, he had such an imagination for those types of things.
And he was, when you were talking about the reading the book and just kind of making it up as you go, or the other child was just making a noise, you know, as for the reading, he did a similar thing.
When he was very little, before he could talk, he would come out with a string of sounds that had the cadence of speech, but it was nothing, you know.
So, you know, I think he's he not just they all had kind of a real expressive imagination.
And when you look at your kids, probably everybody feels the same way, but they're very talented in different ways and comes out in different ways.
And especially when you can compare to yourself, sometimes you see how your children are in some ways better than yourself, or maybe even in many ways better than yourself.
Yeah, absolutely.
Sam, I can, I remember Hermit Crabs vaguely.
I can, but it's amazing.
I can, I can still so viscerally remember the smell of the table.
Yeah.
You know, it's very unique.
It's a little, it's not, it's not bad.
It's not horrible.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, have you ever seen the ones at like carnivals and stuff where it'll have various paintings on the chest?
You can get like different sports teams or whatever.
Yeah.
And to your point about, you know, sort of coaxing kids to talk or whatever, Potato for a long time was strictly whining to get my attention or to get something that he wanted to do.
So I finally got him to say, you know, say dad to help when you need help.
Okay, buddy, just say dad to help.
So now it's 24/7.
Dad to help.
Dad to help.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, I'm not breaking out my violin, though, on that one.
It's cute anyway.
I don't know.
Let's go to Smasher.
Smasher, what do you got, big guy?
Thank you, Sam.
I'm thinking about the whining because the twins are doing a lot of whining and we're doing the whole like, no, I'm not helping you until you give me something.
Right.
So use your words.
Yeah.
Just say something.
Even if it's not like perfect.
Yeah.
Please, or thank you.
One more quick potato story.
Sorry, I told you guys I was backed up.
So we always said grace around our kitchen table growing up.
Thanks to my mom, devout Catholic.
We have not for most of the time.
We do what we're grateful for sometimes.
But when we had our last visit with grandma and grandpa on my side, Potato took such a delight in holding hands and saying grace that now every, I swear, I won't swear to you know who that wouldn't be appropriate.
But every time we sit down to dinner now, we may sometimes we get started.
And then he looks around the table and he puts his arms out and we're like, all right, we're doing the best.
So we're saying, we say grace almost every dinner now.
And when we're done, he puts his hands up in the air and he goes, yay!
Doesn't hurt you.
Absolutely.
No, we're totally going along with it happily and proudly too.
So thank you, Potato.
Maybe one day you'll hear this when you're all grown up if it's not deleted from the internet.
All right.
Jo, go ahead.
How about it, buddy?
I'm going to do two because the first one is super short.
How about it?
But I'm sitting there with him the other day.
Somebody dropped some kind of Ben Shapiro meme into a chat, like a video clip of his.
And my son looks over, like, kind of interested.
I'm like, oh, God, please don't like Ben Shapiro or whatever.
So, you know, he doesn't have any language skills yet.
So I just sat there and did like my hacky Ben Shapiro impression for like five straight minutes just talking to him.
And like, I didn't know what to say because at first I was just like, hey, who's a good boy?
And, you know, hypothetically, if you were to eat your lunch, I didn't know what else to say.
So I just started doing like actual Ben Shapiro takes face to face with my son.
And he's just looking at me like he's so fascinated.
And it was just so funny how engaged he was with it.
But part of me is like, I hope he doesn't actually dig this.
Facts and logic.
Yeah.
That's the same way Ben Shapiro feels toward his audience, too.
Do you know why he was so fascinated?
Why is that?
No, I'm asking.
Oh, no, no.
I thought it was a D's nut set up there.
Like, daddy was talking to him.
And like I was even saying earlier, when I read a book, he looks at me more than he looks at the book.
You know, like he's just interested in engaging with me.
And like, I don't have conversations with him where him and I just sit across from each other and I talk a lot.
Like that wouldn't make sense.
He doesn't know English yet, you know?
So for me to do that, I think it was just entertaining for him.
Right.
Yeah.
I was thinking he probably was fascinated by your ability to like imitate somebody else.
Maybe, but the Shapiro.
Actually, the scene was so small.
Like it was short in duration and the screen that it was on, I'm not even sure he got a good look at it.
But the other story is from the other perspective.
It says a son.
And I told this story the other day, and I think it is worth going on there.
Now, I know this is comfy corner, and we're going to start in a little bit of a dark place here, but I promise you it turns around.
So one day, my sister, my dad, and I are all hanging out.
And this is a long time ago now, 10, 15 years.
But I crack up about it all the time still.
My sister and I bring up the movie Requiem for a Dream.
Okay.
If you're not familiar with the movie, it is the most depressing nightmare ever put to film.
It's not a horror movie.
It's just a depression movie.
And in the chat that, you know, I was talking to our guys in the other day.
There were guys saying, like, yeah, it took me a couple of days to recover from that one.
So I told the story of my sister and I are talking about the movie.
And my dad's like, what movie are you talking about?
And my buddy had a copy of it at my place.
So the next time I see my dad, I bring him the movie.
And I said, hey, but listen, don't watch this by yourself.
Don't watch it at night, particularly.
And make sure you have something to do when the movie is over because you're just going to be in a bad headspace.
He says, okay, okay.
And I said, Dad, I need you to know that I'm serious.
Like, this is a huge bummer.
And I don't want you to watch it by yourself or at night.
And I want you to make sure you have something to do when it's over you.
Okay, okay.
Like two weeks later, I get a phone call at like 11.30 p.m.
Son.
You busy?
You busy?
No, no, I'm off tomorrow.
What's going on?
Are you okay?
Yeah, yeah.
I just watched that movie that you gave me.
Oh.
Yeah, didn't I tell you not to watch that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it.
What are you doing right now?
What am I doing?
Nothing?
Nothing.
You want to go meet up at the diner or something?
You're going to hang out for a few.
My dad and I end up sitting in this diner till about three or four o'clock in the morning.
And he ends up coming back to my place because my place is closer to the diner.
He comes over and stays at my place or whatever for the night.
Just, you know, trying to shake that one off and not be by himself.
But that's just.
Yeah, that one's highly disturbing and difficult to get some of those images out of your head.
Yeah.
You turned it around, JO from Smasher in the chat was like, WTF, this is now JO's creepy corner.
But yeah, oh, I know, right?
Like, I don't, I don't want to have too many instances of that with my old man where he was like, hey, let's, let's go have, you know, a burger at a diner or something like that.
It's been so many years.
I think I confuse kids and Requiem for a Dream, those two really sick sort of turn of the century or whatever they were, 90s things.
But well, it's funny.
And, you know, it made me reflect a little bit more too.
And I won't go on too much longer here, but it made me reflect a little bit more too on like son stories as an adult.
Like, I remember I'm like six inches taller than my dad.
And I remember when it started to be the case that he might have to ask me to reach something for him.
You know, or when your parents start to feel your agency in adulthood, and maybe they'd prefer you drive in some situation.
Like, I remember a very distinct time.
My mom can't see well at night.
It's raining.
It's nighttime.
She says, hey, buddy, can you drive us home?
And me, and, you know, I was a teenager.
Yeah.
And like, suddenly I kind of have the torch now a little bit, you know?
So that stuff's always worth reflecting on, too.
And it was good to hear, too, that I guess you and your old man weren't close for some time and you've rekindled or you're you're bros now again.
Is that is that fair to say?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Very good.
Anthony, over to you, pal.
You are a very thoughtful and heartfelt father, I know, from reputation and just seeing some of your writing.
So now's your chance to break the hearts of the audience.
I don't know if this is going to disappoint, but the thing that I've been thinking about that I wanted to get out is that, you know, especially on this show, there's a lot of sentimentality.
And mainly, Coach, it could come from you.
I think that's fair to say.
I think that sometimes we get caught up in that sentimentality and there is a danger in it.
And a couple of weeks ago, before all the snow really hit and got heavy, there was a puddle.
And I remember, you know, I was on a walk with my daughter and she was, you know, splashing in the puddle for the first time and like just dancing, like marching in the puddle and kicking.
And she, we must have spent 15 minutes.
She went back and forth and back and forth.
But and so, like, it's a very special moment for me, but I have no idea if she will remember that she's older.
And there's a kind of sadness to that, but there's also a lesson in it, which is kind of we have to love our children themselves and not just the memories of our children.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
And, you know, she probably won't remember that, but just tonight at the dinner table, I don't know if it's because it's midwinter and whatnot, but the comfy corner moments have been coming more frequently, possibly due to just, you know, proximity.
We're not all running around in the great wide open in the summer.
But for whatever reason at the dinner table, I told Junior, I said, one of my favorite memories of you was reading you a story before bed, and then you would insist on falling asleep in my arms with your little blue bear, and then you'd be asleep and I'd put you in the crib.
And then I knew instantly daughter was going to have her nose been out of joint.
So I said, and you, dear daughter, my favorite memory of you, you know, she doesn't want to be left out of daddy's circle of love.
I said, my favorite memory of you is that every morning you would come bounding down the stairs with a big smile on your face, whether you got a lot of sleep, a little sleep, it doesn't matter.
You were always happy.
You'd say, morning, morning.
And everybody laughed at the table and she got a big kick out of that.
And then they were like, well, dad, what about Potato?
What's your favorite memory of him?
And I was like, well, we're going to have to give him a few more years before I can look back on it and pick a few.
Just because, you know, with time, those memories get sweeter.
They don't pass or anything like that.
They're almost more heart-rending.
You're right.
It's just hard to imagine that someday, like, he's not going to be this little non-conversant guy who wakes up so happy just to like his eyes open and they lock on me and he's like, it's like he just saw a rock star.
Yeah.
He'll just have his own little chimp out because he's just so excited to be awake and alive.
You know, every time he falls asleep and I pick him up to take him to his little bed or whatever, and he does the automatic latch on thing.
Like, I don't know, someday he's probably going to be like six feet tall or something.
You know, like he's going to be a man.
I'm not going to be carrying him around his whole life.
And it's just hard to imagine him any other way.
That's right.
Yeah, there are multiple things that happen throughout a week.
And I go, man, that's a good, like comfy thing to talk about.
And it never fails that I write, that I failed to write them down.
So I forget because I'm dumb.
I have terrible short-term memory.
I carry a notebook with me almost everywhere I go.
And I always manage to not have it when I think of something that I actually want to talk about.
I always manage to have it when I'm doing something retarded.
I don't know what my Schadenfreud is, but from you, I always prefer the opposite stories.
I always prefer with the twins, like, oh, my son kicked me in the shins and my daughter's hanging on to my wife by her hair, swinging her around or something.
I prefer the stories of your kids being rotten.
Well, it's because I've got two kids, so I get twice as much comfiness.
It's just not fair.
But a relatively new phenomenon as things have kind of stabilized around here.
You got about six months of that, buddy.
Well, and I do think a big part of it comes from them just getting older, and they're now at the appropriate age where they perform this activity or this thing is, you know, when I get home from work every day and I just hear daddy from both of them in unison, you know, and they run up to the gate and it just like it's so good to walk through the door to that.
Yeah.
It's amazing.
That's that's a million bucks.
And then the other one is when they fall asleep in the car or on the couch and you go to pick them up to put them into bed or bring them in the house and out of instinct, pure instinct, they put their arms around your shoulders or around your neck without even waking up and you're like, oh, yeah.
Yeah, it's an auto lash.
He'll do it and he'll stabilize a little bit.
And then for just like one pump, one grip, he'll grab my shirt and like make two fists like he's holding on for dear life for half a second.
And then he's just right back out.
Yep.
And speaking of clinging, just last night, I said, all right, it's time springs around the corner.
I started doing some sit-ups and push-ups in the living room.
And our youngest came right over and got on my back for the push-ups.
And I curled him.
So remember, listeners, physical fitness is important and working out is too.
And there's nothing better than working out with your kids.
Curl your kids, deadlift your kids.
That's unsafe.
I used to mimic my wife.
My wife works out quite a bit and she'll just do it in the living room with him.
And he like kind of tries to mock her, but he's, you know, absolutely not coordinated enough.
So it really just ends up with him either on his back, like doing a little giggly chimp out thing, or he's on his belly, like he's trying to travel like a seal.
Right.
Any face down like yoga or exercises that she's doing, he interprets all of them as like his toddler version of attempting to do the worm.
Sure.
We're coming close to the break here, but I want to squeeze in one more thing here at the top.
We're really jamming content.
And after our OPSEC episode where we went really long, hour 10, don't matter.
MP, by the way, has no wholesome dad stories whatsoever.
That's why he's not chiming in on the comfy quarter.
Yeah.
Terrible father.
No, no, no joy.
No joy.
Yep.
Witch of a wife, nasty old man for a father.
And that's what happens when you don't talk there, Mr. Snerdley.
I'm kidding.
Our dog, our beloved dog, who we adopted from a shelter at two and who is now 15 and deaf and clearly on her way out.
She's starting to not lose control of her bowels, but she's starting to literally like pee in the house if we don't put her out every hour or as soon as she gets up.
She sleeps, she eats, and then when she gets up to pit or patter across the floor, everybody's like, put her outside, put her outside, because she can't make it more than.
Now, we're not going to put down our dear beloved Brussels Grafan just because we have to clean up messes in the house.
But JO has put down more dogs than the rest of the birth panel put together, or at least had to witness old dogs being put down.
So Jay.
We should have had Nifty on for this bit.
But we haven't talked about this before the show.
When's the time, JO, when you have to start thinking euthanasia?
Well, my dog that I grew up with, who I loved so much, and we went everywhere together.
Like people knew me as the kid with the dog, you know.
He got to where he couldn't get up.
Right.
And when he's like a hundred pounds or more, this isn't like you can't carry him around.
And he was just obviously miserable.
And we actually had the vet come to the house so we didn't have to put him through the fear or physical discomfort of trying to get him up and do the bit.
So the vet came to the house and that was a wrap.
What was kind of a you held him in your arms or mom and dad did.
And I did.
Yep.
Yep.
Yeah.
I think I've talked about this before.
It's like a great regret of my life that took me years to get over that I go see it out and had to leave.
How old were you?
20.
Oh, wow.
You did softly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just couldn't do it.
And I felt like garbage about it for years.
Sorry.
Still bothers me a little bit, but it's one of those things that I just learned to get over.
Now he's there for every dog that gets put down in the neighborhood.
He has to win.
Sorry.
That kind of happened.
That kind of happened because I've known a lot of single women or just there.
I've been put in various situations where I was like the only masculine guy that some woman knew.
And when it was time for their pet to be put down, they asked me to do it.
Like to take the pet to the vet so that they wouldn't have to go through that emotional situation.
And you do it because that's what you do.
You know, in one instance, this is a family I know since I'm 14.
And their dog is real old and on the way out.
And she has a certain kind of cancer.
And they said, once she starts to show this symptom, that's a rap.
Or actually, it was a he.
Sorry.
Once he starts to show this symptom, that's a rap.
You're going to want to take him in, or his life is just going to be pain.
Well, they tell her this, and then like a year goes by, and the symptom doesn't arrive.
A year and a half goes by, the symptom doesn't arrive.
She goes out of town for a week and asks me to house sit.
And guess what?
Yep.
The dog is the dog angel of death arrived.
Yeah.
I need you to not freak out.
But yeah.
You can't visit while our dear dog is.
That's like the time my grandma killed my goldfish.
There's another instance of a woman who was just too heartbroken to take her cat in to be put down.
So I did it for her.
I don't know why I'm the guy that gets that call more than once in my life.
But I just, I kind of feel like these people, everyone else they knew was like probably kind of fruity or whatever.
Like, and like, also in all of these instances, like, I'm the only guy these people know who hunts and who has like defended the idea of animals dying before.
Right.
So maybe that had something to do with it.
I don't know.
Well, if my family ever wants to or needs to put me down, I hope they call you, Jayo, to come.
I'm actually on my way up there right now.
I already got the call.
They were just on our last show.
I want everyone to really enjoy this one.
It's been great working with you guys.
There's a couple.
There's a couple of loose ends I need to tie up before you put me down.
So just give me a day or two.
Yeah, 45 minutes, buddy.
Very good.
All right.
We're at an hour.
I wanted to note before we go to the break that we are coming into Super Bowl Sunday.
And I'm giving the audience a homework assignment or lack thereof.
And that is, don't watch the Super Bowl this year.
Try it.
For about the past decade, I have said, I'm only going to watch to, you know, keep up with the culture or see what the zeitgeist is or like watch the only football game of the year.
This year, I'm skipping it.
I'm going cold turkey.
I don't give a rat's ass.
I don't need to spend two hours on a Sunday to know that our culture is perverted and whatnot.
It was almost two decades ago when I had an epiphany that I didn't give a rat's ass what the Mets did on any given day and how they performed and the Super Bowl.
I think it would be a good time.
I got a bunch of buddies who are doing an anti-Super Bowl party.
They are going to drink and grill and have a fire and they're going to burn any sports jerseys that they have lingering with moth-eaten holes in them in their closets.
So good on those guys.
I'm going to go back on the record for any sports cocks.
Long before I was ever a right-wing red-pilled guy, I was always a huge sports fan and I always thought wearing jerseys was gay.
Now add the racial component of you or worse, your girlfriend walking around with some other man's name across their back.
What is wrong?
Get it together.
I didn't know that the Super Bowl was a Sunday until right now.
Good.
Good man.
And if you find any of the storylines captivating, oh, Brady, Tom Brady is back and he's at this other time.
Tom Brady's a training.
Well, you'll know who won when the game is over because this crap is ubiquitous.
You don't need to spend three and a half hours watching BLM songs and pause commercials to know what the outcome of the game is.
Yeah, but I could see some non-white woman shake her ass on TV.
Whoa, really?
Yeah, because there's not a ton of Jewish porn on the internet for free.
Anthony, before we go to the break, I got to know, this is a real tough one.
Which quarterback do you think is better?
Pat Mahomes or Tom Brady?
Shut up.
I'm not going to answer that question.
I will say this.
The big game is all around us.
It's whites versus colors.
All right, Smasher, which quarterback do you like better, Pat Mahomes or Tom Brady?
Come on, take it off, Paul.
Tom Brady, he's nuts.
Thank you, Joe.
I needed that release.
Pat Mahomes, good night.
Very good.
All right, Anthony, you plan two or you got to run.
I know you're an early riser.
I am.
I'll stick around.
I am.
All right.
Wild man.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
He's going to be sleeping on the couch tonight.
No, I'm kidding, buddy.
All right.
Everybody, buy my mirror, tells a story, whitepeoplespress.com or amazon.com.
If that's your Huckleberry, you'll save more money with the former.
This week, I had a musical choice all teed up that was perfect, heartbreaking, and gorgeous.
But it was brought to my attention that a certain southern country star named Morgan Wallen is in deep doo-doo because he dropped the hard R at some fracas on the streets the other day, and he's getting put through the ringer.
His label is dropping him, he's getting deplatformed left and right.
However, our pal Cyclone let us know that in another maybe ineffectual tiny peasant revolt, his iTunes listens and downloads are through the roof.
He already cut the guy that already got canceled once for going to a sorority party a couple of months ago during the pandemic and making out with like 10 different girls on camera base night guess on the hard R.
He cucked on the hard R and apologized.
I know he put out that a lot of good it did him because he got effing dropped anyways.
Negative cuck.
Just you said it.
You said it.
You said it with a hard R and you meant it.
We know how you feel.
Stop being a guy.
Well, now I don't want to play the song anymore, Smasher.
No, no, no.
But like, stop being a homo.
But when you're willing to stop being a homo, understand there's this whole huge community out here for you.
And you could be like the biggest star in our thing.
Like, we like hard R's too, and we're not some Jew that's going to force you to apologize for it.
Come on over.
We're going to play your song.
Three million people are going to listen to it when they listen to this show.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was tempted to say, hey, let's all say the hard R at the same time on the show, but we have a real gentleman on the show.
I don't want to get him in trouble.
You can say it too.
I don't.
Well, we can always get Mr. Producer to bleep it.
No, well, the problem is that latency screws it up trying to do anything.
No, we can know.
No, now that I've teased it, we can summon it.
And we're just saying some word.
So our guest doesn't have to say it if he doesn't want to.
But on the count of three, we're going hard R. Ready?
One, two, three.
All right, screw it.
We're doing it.
Go ahead.
You know, they say with drugs, a big issue is that you build up a tolerance, but there's no intolerance.
It feels just as good this time as it did the first time.
All right, screw it.
In honor of Morgan Wallen and his momentary, as a good friend said, he said, if he says, if he dropped the hard R, he's our guy.
I'm giving him a pass on the cuck.
It don't matter.
Anyway, this is Chasing You by Morgan Wallen, and we will be right back.
We used to taste that tattoo freight.
Couple of kids in a Chevrolet.
Catch a little layer when we cross the tracks.
Sipping on some from a paper sack.
You hang your shirt on that maple lamp.
Slipping through the moon to the river band.
Wasn't very long as jumping in.
Jumping in.
I guess I'm still doing now what I was doing then.
Chasing you like a side of whiskey.
Burning, going down.
Burning, going down.
Tasing you like those goodbye tail eyes.
Hitting with anywhere out of this now.
Tasing that freedom, tasting that feeling that got gone too soon.
Tasing that you and me are only seeing my review.
Yeah, I'm still chasing you, still chasing you.
You always used to talk about L.A.
I heard you got as far as Santa Fe.
The way you know I tried to track you down.
I only got as far as Guitar Town.
Singing about a girl I used to know.
Used to know.
Used to know that I haven't given up.
I'm just on your radio.
Chasing you like a side of whiskey.
Burning, going down, burning, going down, tasing you like those goodbye tails.
Hitting with anywhere out of this nowhere town, tasing that freedom, tasting that feeling that got gone too soon.
Tasing that you and me, I want to see in my review.
Feel I'm late here tonight, holding someone who's still chasing you, still chasing you like a side of whiskey.
Burning, going down, burning, going down, tasing you like those goodbye tail lights.
Hitting with the anywhere out of this nowhere town, chasing that freedom, tasing that feeling that got gone too soon.
Tasing that you and me, I want to see in my review.
Here I'm late here tonight, holding someone who's still chasing you.
Still chasing you, still tasting you, still tasting you.
And welcome back to Full House episode 78, second half.
Honored to have Illustrator Anthony Coulter back with us for the second half.
Don't forget to go out and pick up My Mirror Tells a Story.
If you didn't quite get that message from the first half, you know what?
We're honored to have him on.
And there's no too many plugs in this thing for people and our cause.
That song, of course, was by Morgan Wallen, Wallen, whatever.
I had never heard of him.
I checked out his discography and I was like, eh, I'm not impressed.
And a southern friend called me an elitist Yankee for not getting it.
Musically, musically, not wrong.
I was born in North Carolina.
All right.
So I got a little bit of Southern cred.
Don't give me too much guff there.
I like a lot of country, some country.
That guy, eh, give him some more.
Anyway, he got the break music for dropping the hard R.
And I think if you're listening to this, we probably bleep that a little bit in deference to the kids listening and in good decorum and all the rest.
Anyway, glad you're back with us, folks.
And we have two, just two, but two very important congratulations on New White Life this week.
First one goes to Braxton and his lovely wife.
Just today, we saw the first pictures.
I think it was yesterday that we got the news.
They had another beautiful white baby.
And this one's a girl.
Chubby cheeks and the pink and white hat.
She looked like the female version of Franz and Clara's handsome baby boy who came last week.
So way to go, guys.
Yay.
Yeah, absolutely.
I think that's like their fourth or fifth or sixth.
I don't know.
I don't want to give the exact count.
But anyway, wonderful job.
Can't wait to meet her someday.
Also, to our pal, Carpenter.
Anthony was like, hey, coach, you going to congratulate Carpenter?
I was like, congratulate him on what?
He's like, on his third child, you dummy.
I was like, I had no idea.
So, Carpenter, and to your lovely wife, if you're listening to this, and you better be, we are extraordinarily happy and proud of you.
Way to go, guys.
I had no idea.
I'm sorry.
I missed that in a chat or something.
I hope I got it right.
I know they are expecting it at the very least.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Well, so if this, if this is premature or whatever, it's your ass there, Anthony.
All right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I have definitely missed one or two I've noticed.
Some of them I've caught up with.
Some of them was like, did I say it?
I don't know.
So anyway, feel free to email the show if you want one for sure, rather than one of these godforsaken chats where there's like 500 messages when you wake up in the morning.
You just roll your eyes and get on with your day.
Okay, to start us off here in the second half, we got a brief and awesome email from a listener, and I'll read it right now, just in honor of him and in gratitude too.
This is from Reinhardt.
Hello.
I am a new listener of the past few months, and I truly enjoy and respect what you guys are doing.
Your discussions about fatherhood specifically are hitting home as I'm going to have my first child, a son, in two months with my beautiful, blonde-haired, blue-eyed wife.
I'm sorry if that feels like gloating lol.
Not at all, Reinhard.
Have at it, gloat away.
Good luck in the home stretch.
We presume that you are not Patrick Casey returning to tradition and with a wife.
And he also adds, It is refreshing to hear a rational perspective that many of us folk feel in our hearts, but at times can never truly express or relate.
Thank you, gentlemen.
You are doing God's word, Reinhard.
Thank you, Reinhard, for writing in.
And hell victory.
Hail victory.
Yes.
Coach, before you go into too much more listener mail, I wanted to quickly interject a little information about this book I mentioned in the first half.
Please do.
If you have a moment, it's a very lovely book.
It's called From Jane with Love, and she talks about the present that everybody has that they're born with, and that's their virginity.
And as she, the character grows up in the book, she sees give their present away in an unworthy way.
Sure.
And it's very lovely.
And this is a book that Amazon, once they caught on, would not sell it.
So you may want to support it for that.
And it is written by Isabella Bruno.
She is a French Canadian and she has a website, isabellabruno.ca.
She is Canadian.
She's French-Canadian.
Now, I'm just going into a little bit of detail there because I had not gone on her website until this moment, so I could talk about the book a little more.
And if the listeners go on there, you're going to say, What the hell is Sam recommending?
Because the picture that is on there makes her look very non-white.
And though I've seen her interviewed, and there's other pictures on her site that does not make her look so non-white.
So I don't know if that's just a bad picture or if she's not white, but I was a little shocked at the cover picture on her thing there.
But anyways, it is a very beautifully illustrated children's book, probably like what Anthony has done with that other book we were talking about.
And so I just leave it to leave it right there, isabellabruno.ca.
Check it out.
From Jane with Love is the name of the book.
Thank you, Sam.
And it strikes me that we should probably do a thread on Twitter, starting, of course, with Anthony's book and going through stuff like this.
Things that may not be commonly known exist, including Blute and Bowdoin and all the rest.
Yeah, no need to put a whole article together about it.
Just put it out there because I think it was Mystery Grove did a monster thread of all the movies that he liked and endorsed.
And I was looking through it.
I was like, man, there's a lot of good-looking ones in there that I'd never heard of before, let alone seen.
All right.
Yeah.
Check that one out too.
And we'll get on propagating these things so you can shop better for your families.
Moving on.
All right, we're down, JO.
We still got Anthony.
And we got a very good question from an audience member, Joe B., Joe Biden wrote in again this week's mash.
Shout out to Joe Biden.
He replaced the Churchill bust in the Oval Office with a bust of JFK.
Okay.
Upgrade.
Yeah.
That's an upgrade.
Yeah.
Based.
That's Pagora nationalism.
Yeah.
I used to love Winston Churchill.
He's so witty.
He saved the British Isles, the British Bulldog, etc.
And then after some he's a fat, you loving retard.
Yep.
And he's burning in hell alongside with Oliver Cromwell.
That was blue-pilled coach.
And then later on, I realized if you don't loathe and disrespect Winston Churchill, you are not truly red-pilled.
Right.
You're the official Winston Churchill disrespecting show this cool.
We've all got our priors.
That's the George Bush.
Ooh.
Yeah.
I had better sense than that, Anthony.
Yeah.
I voted for Carrie.
I voted for Gore, and I voted for Carrie.
And even worse.
All right.
We're going to Joe B here.
Greetings, birth panel.
I listened to the show last Saturday, as always.
Full House is the one show I never miss.
Good man there.
And he writes, wow, that letter from the young man with the mud shark girlfriend.
That was difficult to hear, but you guys gave some great advice.
Thank you, Joe.
Appreciate that.
And yes, that gentleman did split with his girlfriend after our advice.
Didn't sound like it was too hard.
He probably was going to do it anyway, but we feel confident that we helped him along to do the right thing.
All right.
You are not being pushy here, Joe, by suggesting this show topic.
I'm going to cut his remarks a little bit because they're a little bit wordy.
But long story short, he and his wife are in their mid-50s and they got four kids.
Daughters 26, boys 24, 21, and 18.
And they're not too worried about the boys.
They're coming along.
All right.
You know, moving through school and career and all the rest of it with some good ladies on their arms, but not engaged or married yet.
Joe B says, and here we get to the rub: My real concern is with my daughter and the path I am concerned she is falling into.
Now, when I say she is the most wonderful human being I have ever met, it is honestly not because I am her father.
It's just the truth.
That makes two of us, Joe B.
She is the kindest, smartest, and most charming person I know.
She's been nothing but a joy to everyone who has known her from the day she was born.
And she is tall, thin, and beautiful on top of all that.
She could have done anything she wanted regarding education and career.
However, she's traditional.
I suspect she wants to have a career more amenable to having children.
So she became a teacher.
She's fluent in this language, spent a year working in that country, and she's now teaching this language.
I vagified it there for Joe's protection.
She's been together with a young man for about two and a half years now.
They met at college.
He's my daughter's first serious romance and the only guy with whom she's been with.
He's a nice enough white guy from a good family, but I got two big issues.
First, he's two years younger than my daughter.
I think she should be at least thinking about getting married to this guy, but it doesn't seem anywhere near that yet.
Number two, he doesn't seem to have any career ambitions.
He's got a degree in useless degree and is just futzing around teaching without a certification, which is required to teach in our state.
To sum things up, I'm really afraid my daughter is getting into a relationship in which she's the more capable one and will be forced to wear the pants.
And by the time this guy is ready to support a family for my daughter, she might be listening to her biological clock ticking.
All right.
And he says, I especially want Sam's advice on this one.
Joe B, thank you for the question.
That is a tough one.
Yeah.
Yep.
Sam, we're giving you a first crack.
Sure.
Well, you know, he brings up the age thing first.
So I don't know if that's maybe weighing a little bit on him.
And I would say that in this day and age that we live in, the age thing is not that important anymore.
I wouldn't let that bother you.
Yeah, we like to think that the man should be a little bit older than the woman.
And that does oftentimes work out psychologically.
When somebody is older, let's say we're just, we're friends.
And so I'm older than you.
I just have more life experiences and I just know more things than you.
And you're going to look up to me to a certain extent anyways.
So that kind of makes the right dynamic in the marriage that the wife kind of looks up to the husband and things like that.
But I think that maybe that's not so automatic in our day and age.
So I wouldn't let that part of it worry me.
He brought that up first.
So I think maybe does that kind of a little bit rubs him the wrong way?
I'd say, don't let that bother you.
As far as the other things, you know, a 24-year-old today is like, you know, I mean, I remember when I was a teenager, I mean, an 18-year-old man was a man, you know, now an 18-year-old person is a kid to us, right?
So, I mean, you know, that's all changed a little bit.
And 24-year-old, I still look at that as a very young person that doesn't even know anything.
So I think that that guy is impressionable and maybe you could kind of direct him a little bit if you have the right type of gravitas.
You know, you might take him persuasion.
Yeah, you might take him aside and try to talk to him a little bit and say, like, you know, what do you think about this?
You know, you could say it in different ways to not that you're putting him on the spot or you can put him on the spot too.
You know, either way, you could, you could take him and ask him directly or indirectly, what are his thoughts?
Is he thinking about this?
Does he understand the importance of that?
Things like that.
Haven't you gotten this certification yet?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or, and then I like the other things, such as call him the wrong name.
Like, let's say his name is Bill.
Call him Ben.
You know, then he thinks, you know, it's like, you know, it's like you're showing him that you're nothing.
You're not that important to me.
You know, and make the guy, put the guy on his heels a little bit.
If they've been together for so long, I don't know, Sam.
That's a little bit of an over-the-top troll.
But hey, you know, maybe.
Yeah, I don't know.
How long have they been together?
I didn't get that.
Oh, I think they said two years.
Oh, well, two years.
That's a good question.
He should ask the next time he sees them together.
How long have you guys been together, Ben?
There you go.
That's another way.
There you go.
There's an upgrade.
Two and a half years they met at college.
Open floor on this one.
I will stick my neck out a little bit until, you know, when I get advice questions, I'm not some Swami.
I don't have, I haven't read a lot of books about this stuff.
So I kind of go with my gut and my own personal experience.
When I was a junior or a senior in college, roughly around that time, my then serious girlfriend, now wife, moved in with me to an apartment in DC because she had finished college early and we loved each other and we were head over heels for each other.
And when I told my old man that, he responded somewhat like not concern trolling.
Just sent me like a wall text email that was not about her.
It was about, you are a young man, you're in college, you need to focus on your studies.
I think this is a very bad decision, etc.
And he made rational points to me, my, you know, his son.
And I read them and I was like, at the time, what was I, 21, maybe 22?
I was like, yeah, whatever, dad.
Like, I was like, thanks.
I don't think I even responded.
And that was my own father.
So at that age, you know, 22, 24, whatever, especially with your father, daughter, I don't know.
But point being, I was headstrong at that time and I was pretty determined to do whatever the hell I wanted to do within reason.
You know, I wasn't a dummy.
So tread carefully, Joe B, in daughter, because you could have the opposite effect if you go too hard.
And also, if you're a pushover, there's another factor.
And real quick, too, I want to say you're in a pretty good position relatively, right?
You love and respect your daughter.
She's got a good head on her shoulders.
This is a white guy who's working from a good family, two years younger, sub-ideal, but I agree with Sam, not a huge deal.
So you're trying to push this situation more toward perfection.
And you could even achieve it with the relationship that she has right now.
You just got some concerns.
But I'll stop there to say, tread carefully.
Definitely, I don't know exactly how candid and how comfortable you are talking about these things with your daughter, but there's no harm at all in taking a long winter's hike with her or a long phone call and feel this thing out.
But you do risk driving her further into his arms if you go too hard and assuming that that is not actually a solid outcome.
Yeah.
And you got to keep in mind, too, like, you know, my grandfather, he was, I think they got married, maybe he was 20 years old.
He worked as a post post postman, you know, post office deliveryman for his entire career and bought a house, not 30-year mortgage bought.
He bought a house on that salary and raised a family.
My grandmother never worked a day in her life.
And as far as like an employment type of a situation.
And so the thing was, society was more like that, where a young man who had all the feelings of being a man could be a man and could take on a family.
Now, a man of 24 years old cannot buy a house, cannot have a family, cannot have a marriage and all those things unless it's, you know, maybe some, maybe some can, but many cannot.
They're saddled with the college debt and all kinds of other things.
But society is ill-ordered.
Our uncle spoke about this in different ways in his book as well.
You know, like talking about in his day, the problem was syphilis.
And so you could wag the finger and say, well, you know, people should be like this.
People should be like that.
They shouldn't do that thing.
Okay, well, that's fair, right?
Maybe, maybe that's partially true.
But also, society has to be ordered in a way that works with the natural impulses of people.
When a man is 18 or 19 or 20, he has the feeling to have a wife and to have a family and to have a homestead.
Can a man of that age do that now?
No.
Sure.
And that's what's wrong.
So when society works with nature, then you will get the good outcomes.
But when it frustrates nature, then you have this bad outcome.
And the other thought occurs too is that the father-in-law of his precious only daughter has full bullying and probing and trolling rights over the young whippersnapper who is her potential mate, right?
So I don't think Joe B has to beat around the bush talking to the possible future son-in-law, right?
He can be like, what's, yeah, what's up with that certification?
What's going on?
You know, are you guys thinking engagement?
Like, I think he can go hard on him.
If he spooks, if the father-in-law spooks away the suitor, then the suitor ain't worth a bucket of worm spit anyway.
It's the daughter I would counsel caution.
Right, exactly.
Yes, but you could browbeat this guy in a way, in a like a playful way, you know, or humor, humorous way, you know, too.
Yeah, like I'm saying, you know, call him the wrong name and then correct yourself or things like that.
You know, you could get to this guy, I think, and prod him to do the right thing.
And, you know, what that doesn't hurt because you, you wake up to what's your responsibility.
You know, we're grasping it in degrees all the time, anyways.
So that's okay, you know, and it's, it's because we care.
We're not doing it for any other reason.
We're doing it because we care.
That's right.
Anthony's only 24 years himself, so he should really weigh in here.
I like what Sam has to say.
And I would even combine the two, you know, pull him aside.
And especially if they've been together for a few years or something like that, just say, you know, my wife, my daughter is two years older than you.
And she's not getting any younger.
Right.
Exactly.
If you guys want to have kids, then you're going to have to make something happen because you guys can't be living in my house.
You know, this isn't Italy.
We're not going to be doing that.
So, but, you know, so, but you can also have some sympathy with him.
I agree.
Smash.
You want to beat Joe B over the head with facts and logic?
Yes.
I am too.
He's twice your senior.
What's what I'm looking for?
In a situation like this, like it's almost like a shit test.
I think you need to literally take aside and just be like, look, dude, you've been with my daughter for a long time.
This woman that you are seeing is the most precious thing I've ever had in my life.
And you want to be a dead beat with half a job.
She's outperforming you.
I'll be honest.
Are you gay?
What are you?
Gay?
Like, are you a retard?
What's going on, big guy?
You know, so that's exactly how I would approach it.
He sounds like sweetheart.
So he's probably like not too comfortable with that prospect.
Well, and I like, I completely understand that.
So my advice to Joe B is mostly like, nut up, bro.
And I say that with complete sincerity because I care about him, not because I think he's stupid.
All fathers with daughters, yeah, feel that pain, whether they're five years old or 35 years old.
Yeah, the concern.
Dude, if you want to marry my daughter, you better be cooler than I am.
Right.
Best me in physical combat.
Make a lot more money than me.
Be more well-respected than I am.
Be a better man than me.
And you can marry my daughter.
There you go.
MP, silent partner.
Yeah, I know you were tempted by this one.
You've got a lot of wisdom.
Have at it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Well, I'll give the guy the benefit of the doubt and the daughter for a second before I get into a little bit deeper water with regard to what I think might be going on.
First, it could be that Joe B doesn't understand what it is about the guy that his daughter really likes.
And it may not be something that is easy for the daughter to explain to her father.
So there might be something there that he's not seeing that makes the guy really great in her mind and her eyes.
And, you know, and just it's not getting translated or it's not getting across to the father.
The thing that we talked about earlier, which I think might be coming into play here, is I wonder if she is actually on birth control.
There is a very good YouTube channel called Coronious Focus.
And one of the things this guy has talked about is something in his Meaning a Life series.
And he has a bunch of videos.
I'll just read some of the titles of these, The Cost and Purpose of the Male, The Male Modes of Being, The Fundamental Story of the Female, The Death of the Divine Feminine.
And then this one, which really is a really good one to listen to, is The Chemically Sterilized Females.
And what he talks about is the impact that the birth control pill has had on women and their choices of men while they're on birth control.
And it turns out that because of the imbalance of hormones that they're getting from the birth control pill, that women tend to be attracted to men who are less manly and have less focus in their lives and are, you know, doing a lot less than the men that they would be attracted to if they were not on the birth control pill.
That's wild.
I didn't know it possibly has such a dysgenic effect that it makes bug men more attractive.
Yes.
And hear me think about it.
Think about it.
They get pumped full of these crazy ass hormones.
Yes.
I'm surprised it doesn't make these women functionally retarded, to be honest.
And that's not even a joke like, haha, women are retarded.
Seriously.
I was talking about this a little bit before the show.
Birth control in some ways is almost like a steroid, the way that testosterone works on men.
And think about it.
Testosterone shuts down your sperm production.
So in a way, it is almost a birth control, terrible one.
Terrible choice, if that's the way you're going about it.
But it takes all of your manly attributes and amplifies them in an incredible way.
And so you get these women pumping themselves full of estrogen.
It shuts down their ability to have children and amplifies all their womanly things.
So they become much more emotional.
They become more willing to put up with stuff that they wouldn't normally put up with because that's like women are communal creatures.
You know, just that's their evolutionary role is the caretaker.
And so, yeah, sure, they're going to settle down with some stupid gay bug man because when they're on birth control, their caretaker instinct is being amplified the way that, you know, if I got on steroids, I probably couldn't go to Walmart without ripping somebody in half.
There's only one way to find out.
And that is this guy's thesis and his theory.
And one of the things that he talks about is early on when they were first starting to use birth control and women were first starting to use birth control, the levels of estrogen that they were using in the birth control pill were way, way, way higher than they needed to be.
Like they way over blew like what needed to be there in order to get the desired effect, which is to make women essentially temporarily sterile.
They wanted to cover their asses to not have any accidental shit.
Sure.
Who knows?
Or they learned later on that that was the problem.
So one of the things that he talks about is how as women were starting to utilize birth control and as more and more women started being on birth control, what you saw in the culture was literally a reflection of the uses of birth control, which is the most the most sought-after people in the culture were long-haired rock and roll guys who looked very feminine and even like especially into the skin and bones.
Skin and bones, womanly looking men into the into the 80s.
And once it was in.
Does he look like a bitch?
Say what again, Smasher.
In the 80s is when they started to dial back the use of these high estrogen and progesterone birth controls.
Smasher and a Samuel L Jack.
All right.
So to get back to get back to the point here, I'm curious.
And of course, dad probably isn't going to know this.
Yeah, it's our job.
I am Joe B's wife.
Yeah, I am very curious if perhaps this is what's happening because when I hear that this is a guy that seems to be beneath her with regard to how well she could be, like, it sounds like she should be with a guy who is doing more.
And she may not be attracted to a guy who's doing more.
Like, it sounds like guys who are doing more may not be entering her picture.
But if her picture is warped by birth control, then we might understand why they never enter into her mind as far as being somebody who is desirable and why this guy continues to be desirable to her.
Every guy whose wife was on birth control when he met her is like looking around there, like, uh-oh.
He should look around.
He should look around.
So, yeah.
Well, can I say, I mean, estrogen is pervasive.
So she doesn't even have to be on birth control because this chemical gets into the water supply.
Plastics give you xenoestrogens.
So like our whole world is toxic.
It's really not surprising that you're not going to be able to do that.
Alex Jones.
Alex Jones is completely right.
There are literally chemicals in the water, and they're not just making the freaking frogs gay.
They're making everybody gay.
They're making the kids gay on D-Day, as we titled one of our earlier episodes.
So, all right.
Joby, go hard on potential future son-in-law.
Get your wife to have a conversation with dear daughter and tread carefully.
Also, if I could add, you know, get to know the guy's parents because the relationship he has with his parents is going to be really important.
Sure.
That'll tell you a lot about their relationship.
Yeah.
And don't freak out.
This doesn't sound like the worst of all situations.
It's sub-ideal, but not nearly.
It's a very troubled world.
I mean, the guy's white.
Hey, and he sounds like he's a smart guy and got some good things going for him.
So let's be hopeful.
Yeah.
Get your daughter off birth control if she's on it.
Whip this dude into shape or bully him into it.
And if that works.
Make him join the gym with you and work out with him.
There you go.
Yeah.
Slap him around.
I like it.
All right.
Okay.
Not bad, fellas.
Call him gay.
Yeah.
Let's go to navigating the collapse earlier in the second half than usual.
I don't want Nathaniel Scott to feel like we're always sticking him at the end, but it's always a nice way to close it.
But just to get later in the show.
Oh, no, I don't want to.
Let's go out with that.
No, I have a really good email from a listener with feedback on our financial stuff, and it was basically like, great advice, guys, but you do realize, well, I don't want to spoil it, so let's do Navigating the Collapse.
Good audience feedback, and then we will bring this puppy home.
Thank you, everybody.
Here we go.
Welcome to Navigating the Collapse with your host, Nathaniel Scott.
When push comes to shove and you need to feed your family, you'll want to be as prepared as you can.
Here's a few tips on hunting for when you need it most.
Instead of going out hunting, let your prey come to you.
Put out bait in whatever form you can.
Sit and wait.
Deer and elk walk miles to get to natural salt licks.
So might as well get some of your own for now for just a few dollars.
Keep in mind, it's illegal to feed or bait deer in many states, so only use that lick in the event of a collapse.
Depending on the small animals in your area, you may want to take different approaches.
If you have frogs, a frog gig is your best bet.
You can buy one, but they also can be made in the wild with a few sticks and some carving skills.
If you have crawdads, buy a few traps.
These can also be made on your own using plastic bottles, but would take a lot more skill and time if using natural materials.
Ideally, you can bait them with any type of fish, but they can be drawn in with other types of meat as well if needed.
Just make sure it's fresh.
If there are squirrels near you, a 22 LR rifle would probably be your best bet.
You can buy squirrel traps if you want, but making them isn't too hard right now, and would even be a good activity for kids.
Make sure to bait them with some kind of nut or nut spread, like peanut butter, orange slices, or marshmallows.
All that being said, there are significantly more domesticated animals in the United States than there are wild food animals.
It will be very challenging for farmers to protect and maintain their livestock in the event of a collapse.
That gives you two options.
You can assist these farmers in protecting and maintaining their herds for compensation, or you can procure some of their livestock through other means.
I think people don't consider this fact as much as they should.
America's livestock is often on tracts of land surrounded by nothing more than a thin fence.
The farm owner of today will have a very difficult time keeping poachers and thieves off his land, unless he lives in a very restricted community.
Of course, some people will be interested in hunting for a long pig, but I wouldn't recommend it.
If nothing else, you'll want to avoid contracting any blood-borne diseases.
The Panic of 1819 was the first collapse of the American economy and has been called the First Great Depression by some historians.
It is thought to have been caused by the Bank of the United States, market adjustments after the Napoleonic Wars, the unrestrained issuing of paper money, and excessive speculation on the markets.
In 1832, the bank charter was up for renewal, but President Andrew Jackson vetoed the bill.
Here is his message to Congress after his veto.
The bill to modify and continue the act entitled, An Act to Incorporate the Subscribers to the Bank of the United States, was presented to me on the 4th of July.
Having considered it with that solemn regard to the principles of the Constitution which the day was calculated to inspire, and come to the conclusion that it ought not to become law, I herewith return it to the Senate with my objections.
The bank enjoys an exclusive privilege of banking under the authority of the general government, a monopoly of its favor and support, and as a necessary consequence, almost a monopoly of the foreign and domestic exchange.
It appears that more than a fourth part of the stock is held by foreigners, and the residue is held by a few hundred of our citizens, chiefly of the richest class.
Of the 25 directors of this bank, five are chosen by the government and 20 by the citizen stockholders.
From all voice in these elections, the foreign stockholders are excluded by the charter.
In proportion, therefore, as the stock is transferred to foreign holders, the extent of suffrage in the choice of directors is curtailed.
The entire control would necessarily fall into the hands of a few citizen stockholders.
There is danger that a president and directors would then be able to elect themselves from year to year and without responsibility or control manage the whole concerns of the bank.
It is easy to conceive that great evils to our country and its institutions might flow from such a concentration of power in the hands of a few men irresponsible to the people.
Is there no danger to our liberty and independence in a bank that in its nature has so little to bind it to our country?
The president of the bank has told us that most of the state banks exist by its forbearance.
Should its influence become concentered, as it may under such an act as this, in the hands of a self-elected directory whose interests are identified with foreign stockholders, will there not be cause to tremble for the purity of our elections in peace and for the independence of our country in war?
But if any private citizen or public functionary should interpose to curtail its powers, it cannot be doubted that he would be made to feel its influence.
If we must have a bank with private stockholders, every consideration of sound policy and every impulse of American feeling admonishes that it should be purely American.
Its stockholders should be composed exclusively of our own citizens, who at least ought to be friendly to our government and willing to support it in times of difficulty and danger.
It is maintained by the advocates of the bank that its constitutionality in all its features ought be considered as settled by precedent and by the decision of the Supreme Court.
To this conclusion, I cannot assent.
The opinion of the judges has no more authority over Congress than the opinion of Congress has over the judge, and on that point, the President is independent of both.
It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes.
Distinction in society will always exist under every just government.
Equality of talents, of education, or of wealth cannot be produced by human institutions.
In the full enjoyment of the gifts of heaven and the fruits of superior industry, economy, and virtue, every man is equally entitled to protection by law.
But when the laws undertake to add to these natural and just advantages artificial distinctions to grant titles, gratuities, and exclusive privileges, to make the rich richer and the potent more powerful, the humble members of society, the farmers, mechanics, and laborers who have neither the time nor the means of securing like favors to themselves have a right to complain of the injustice of the government.
There are no necessary evils in government.
Its evils exist only in its abuses.
If it would confine itself to equal protection and, as heaven does its reigns, shower its favors alike on the high and the low, the rich and the poor, it would be an unqualified blessing.
In the act before me, there seems to be a wide and unnecessary departure from these just principles.
They don't make them like that anymore, folks.
Broke, audit the Fed.
Woke.
Absolutely decimate the Fed.
Call the bankers snakes and vipers.
Yeah, I'm surprised Andrew Jackson didn't get whacked by a Jew back in the 1820s, even though there weren't too many of them here back then, like our pool.
Poor pal.
There were enough.
Huey Long.
Yeah.
I think there was probably an assassination attempt on Jackson.
Not entirely sure about that, but.
Thank you, Nathaniel Scott.
And also a good reminder.
Yes, everyone wants more deer in their yard.
Just plant a big, beautiful cherry tree and watch them decimate it before your very eyes.
It may not be legal to put bait out during hunting season, but if once a month you go pour apple juice in the middle of the state game lands in your favorite spot, I don't believe that's illegal.
Yeah.
There's no honor in that.
There's no sport.
And I do actually, I believe in hunting honorably.
Yeah.
While we can still go get food, right?
I can just go buy food.
I don't know what the feds are going to get smasher on is the deer licks.
With that, let me just tell you, my wife made some delicious venison chili on this chilly, wintry night.
My wife made chili the other day.
Oh, God, it was good.
I ate it for like four days straight.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Venice and chili.
I'm out in the gazebo again, and I got unilisched.
Sorry.
Sorry.
I had to get, yeah, nobody took the bait on Tom Brady, so I had to get that one.
No, I'm going to pick up some salt licks.
And yeah, there's deer crawling all over this part of the country to the point where I'm more worried about hitting one than I am starving from not being able to get one.
But thank you, Nathaniel Scott.
And yeah, Smash.
You know, if you hit a deer and you put it out of its misery, there is a chance that you could be fined for that, for poaching.
Because technically, it's illegal to kill them.
And if you don't have your hunting license or whatever, just ridiculous.
Like, okay, so I'm supposed to call some dumb, fat game warden to you stereotyping working white-class Americans there, Smasher?
But that's all right.
I know what you're saying.
Aren't there different seasons?
Like, there's ball season and shotguns.
What if you just choke it out?
Yeah, I don't know.
Hands up.
Hand season.
Yeah.
No, but they, though, you know, a decent thinking person will not do anything.
But some of these people are just like Brainwashed.
You know, they're like, I'm just doing my job and you killed the deer, so I have to give you this ticket or whatever.
And like, that is a real thing that happens.
You know, I used to work with a guy that actually had that happen.
He was really mad about it.
And now he just poaches year-round.
So let that serve as a lesson to you.
Gay wardens that are listening.
No, but like, how retarded is that?
I'm supposed to call law, you know, animal law enforcement, essentially, so that they can mosey on out there at their own pace so that this poor animal can suffer.
Like, you know, I believe in killing and eating animals, but I don't believe in like torturing animals.
And that's, you know, people use that as a big distinction between whites and non-whites.
Is that, you know, you look at blacks and dogfighting and the way that they treat animals.
It's terrible.
You look at the Chinese like eating bats and raping monkeys and putting dogs into boiling pots of water alive, skinning them alive, like all of this disgusting crap.
And white people are the only people in the world that treat animals with any amount of respect.
And this like garbage, illegitimate state will, you know, fine you or arrest you for putting an animal out of its misery that you just hit with your two-ton hunk of ish.
Like, yeah.
Well, clearly, you didn't see Dances with Wolf Smasher, and you don't understand that the white man decimated the buffalo herd and just took off the little skin.
That left a mark on me as a kid, like those evil white men.
You do know that that is like entirely not true.
Right.
You know, we don't have to get in.
Yeah, we don't have to get into it.
But basically, like these nomadic Indians would just, they were nomadic because they were just following the herds of buffalo around, slaughtering them everywhere they went.
Yeah.
I was at a buddy's place the other day.
He lives in the Styx and I saw this like big green contraption on a tripod.
It looked like a water barrel.
I was like, what the hell is that?
And he goes, oh, that's a deer feeder.
He didn't have it activated, but if he needed to, you could just put some deer bait or whatever in there and they just come up there.
And if you needed to, you could just, you know, pick one off.
Something to think about.
I will be buying a salt lick and probably be licking it myself.
To be honest.
And real quick, just yeah, Trump and Andrew Jackson.
Trump put a GD Andrew Jackson portrait in the office and yet he governed like a smasher in a Samuel L. Jackson wig is still getting me.
I would hang a portrait of Samuel Jackson in the White House.
Well, yeah, we had something close to that in the Obama years.
I wanted to read this real quick, food for thought.
I'm going to paraphrase a little bit.
The comments on our site are not posting due to Mr. Producer's gross incompetence.
We've had this, there's some bug.
We've worked on it and spent some time.
There's something funny there.
It's probably Mossad.
So I can see comments that people post to the site, and I approve them, but they don't go up there.
Regardless, Vasco de Goy.
That's a feature, by the way, not a bug.
Yeah, we get like 500 spammy things like, great blog.
I love it.
Samuel Lovestone Joy, you know, and all these like crap links in there.
Anyway, it don't matter.
Just send them to trash.
Vasco de Goyem says, good show topic.
You don't hear a lot about finance in our circles.
He says, I'm going to paraphrase here for time.
Worth considering that those tax-favored retirement plans, IRAs, 401ks, et cetera, will be targeted by the government one way or another, likely not to survive in their current form through our retirement.
Most likely, the government will begin to means test social security.
One of the prime targets for doing that is going to be your nice fat IRA 401k accounts, low-hanging fruit the government will use to justify reducing your benefits so that you know who will get more.
Also, possible that the tax-free retirement plans will be too tempting for Congress to resist, and some sort of tax will be imposed on those withdrawals from your precious Roths in retirement.
Do you trust the U.S. federal government to keep its word?
Good question, Vasco.
No, no, well, you know what?
I don't understand is why is it that the payroll taxes stop at you know, so Social Security comes out of your check up into a certain amount, and you can't pay over that.
Like, can you imagine how many billions of billions of dollars we could probably get extra for for that to pay for?
You know what I mean?
Because, because if you're well, look, most of the guys who are making millions are not uh they're not taking in a huge salary, they're making it through stock, which is you know, obviously would be defeated.
But, but why?
I don't, I just don't understand that.
I mean, I would rather I would rather them take it out of my check and have it, you know, when I need it later on than have this program be you know, essentially close to insolvency.
So, the regressive payroll taxes, yep, yeah, yeah, shut them off once you make a certain amount of money because that's how they do everything else, right?
Yep, couple more gems in here, food for thought, dear listener.
As for those tax-deferred plans, what do you think tax rates are going to look like in 20 or 30 years when you take them in retirement?
If you think we live in a banana republic today, how dysfunctional will the U.S. government be decades from now?
That's a great point.
It'll be functional in 20 to 30 years because we will have wholly routed and replaced it.
If we don't, that's an excellent point.
If you think the U.S. is going to collapse before any of the above is likely to happen, that's the strongest argument for all thinking hard before buying into the game of save for your retirement and invest in the market goym.
They want you to play.
If collapse is in the cards, what good are any of these government-created retirement plans?
Uh, I've been old enough, blah, blah, blah.
Sorry, I don't mean to say blah blah.
The implosion we're likely looking at is going to be worse than anything in U.S. history, certainly worse than anything any of us have ever experienced.
Therefore, I'm working on trying to figure out a collapse in quotes strategy for preserving wealth, including retirement savings.
Haven't figured it all out yet, but it's a topic worth putting out there.
They're coming for us.
That's indisputable, coach paraphrase, and for our money.
I think I'm going to eat Jeff Bezos.
I'm going to feed Jeff Bezos to my family.
Not too bad.
He's out.
He got out while the getting's good.
It's a good thing that he stepped out and now the CEO is going to be a KEO TLDR think intangible or think tangible assets, real property, crypto, et cetera.
And our good pal Rusty the other day said, when you really think about it, money is fake and gay.
What matters?
God, what's the saying?
What you need is ass, gas, and class.
Sorry.
Well, like brass on blood against gold is what it is.
Yeah.
I think it was brass, coach.
Thank you.
That's it.
End of the show.
I'm not frozen.
No excuse other than my almost 40-year-old brain there.
Anyway, thank you, Vasco.
You mentioned crypto.
I'm a big Bitcoin person.
I think that's a good not that I'm an advisor or anything.
Short stuff, my personal opinion.
You know what?
You know what you should invest in?
They're not quite coins, but the most precious metal combination in the world is brass, lead, and copper.
You should invest in that.
It's filled with this cool black powder you might be familiar with.
Right, there it is.
Yeah, first you had me for a second.
I was like, those are legitimate metals that you should copper miners and all the rest of it.
Dork, good night smasher.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
Anyway, leave me alone.
I wanted to close out with a brief poem.
My wife sent this to me the other day, and I had never heard it before.
Of course, I had heard of Robert Frost, but I had never heard fire and ice.
Here we go.
It's short.
Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate to say that for destruction, ice is also great and would suffice.
Little, uh, I don't know if that's poetry fed posting.
WTF, I love poetry now.
Black pilled Robert Frost.
I like it.
Yeah, I love Frost.
Anyway, that's good.
Yeah.
All right, fellas, let's bring this puppy home.
We will start with our special guest, Anthony Coulter.
Thank you primarily for your outstanding work on that book, which will stand the test of time.
And thank you secondarily for joining us tonight.
Well, thank you.
Yeah, I mean, that's what I'm hoping.
I'm hoping this is kind of like a cult classic or something like that.
But thanks for having me.
That's all right.
We'll be in the you know in the courtroom with you when they're showing the illustrations and declaring you guilty one day.
Sorry, I don't mean to freak you out.
We've all committed enough thought crime.
We'll be right there with you.
Yeah, in the style.
Sam, yeah.
All right.
There, there he is.
Mr. Producer, thank you, sir.
Coach Finstock, you're welcome.
Hey, that's what my father calls me.
Sam, you're such a good sport about the hackneyed age jokes.
I don't know why I came up with Laf Erickson there at the top of the show.
You know, I wanted to give you the whole like, you know, Norse and mythic and epic.
So we say it with love, brother.
Hey, thank you.
Hey, our birthdays are close together and it's coming right up, man.
I'm hitting a kind of a milestone.
I guess I won't say it because it's, you know, this jerks try to hunt us down or whatever.
But 25.
Sam's going to be 25.
He's about to get a sweet rate cut to his.
We're going to have a joint birthday party and Smasher's going to pop out of the cake wearing nothing just in AR-15.
He's going to say, it's time.
No, I'm going to, I'm going to be wearing a load-bearing tactical vest backwards like an Army Command Sergeant Major.
Yeah.
I just had a physical.
I went for my physical, which I hadn't gotten in some years.
Everything was good.
Blood pressure perfect.
All the key indicators are, you know, so I feel the same way I felt when I was 21 years old.
You know, bless you.
Did they stick their finger up your butt?
No.
No, I don't.
Well, you know what?
Well, well, since you're on that, my wife does the prostate exam.
When you hit the big five-zero, they say, you know, get the colonoscopy.
When I was going for that, the doctor said, Oh, well, so we're going to do the prostate exam.
I said, Well, can't they just do it while I'm out doing this other thing that I'm supposed to do?
And that's how they did it.
So, I don't know anything about that test.
That will make for good content.
They did it while I was out.
All right.
Very good.
Yeah.
Get your butt violated for full house content, please.
Anyway, no, seriously, they suggested that I don't think it was a colonoscopy.
It was a prostate exam at some physical that I got in my 30s.
And I checked with a couple other doctors.
They're like, Do you have any symptoms?
Do you have any family history?
At the time, I was like, No, they're like, Yeah, that's that's premature.
They knew how tightly, they knew how tightly you were wound.
They suggested it.
My mom used to take my, when I was sick as a, as a kid, my mom used to take my temperature rectally.
There's nothing creepy about it, but I remember that.
And I was like, WTF, Ma.
And she was like, At the time, that was what they said.
Anyway, yeah, but butt content at the bottom half of the second.
All right, the wheels are falling off.
We better thank Potato Smasher before we leave.
I've got a short read, just one sentence to send us off.
And I think it's interesting.
It's from a book called 16 Lives.
It's about James, it's a biography of James Connolly.
The 16 Lives is a series on Irish Republicans, the 16 men that were shot or executed after the Easter Rising.
Very interesting stuff.
James Connolly is a really important socialist figure in the left tries to claim him, but he was based totally our guy, nationalist and a socialist.
And so, this, one of the articles that he put in one of the zines or newspapers or whatever that he put that he at one point helped run called The Workers' Republic is about child labor.
And it's a critique of capitalism and how it treats children.
And it's, you know, he's talking mostly about them working in factories and stuff, but it's prescient today with how children are exploited and abused for social and capital gains through transgender and LGBT activism and stuff.
Yeah.
You'll all get it.
So I'm going to skip.
I'm just going to read that sentence.
There's sentences before and after, but you don't need them.
In every country, capitalism brings in its train the exploitation and degradation of children coins into profit their tender limbs and blots the sunshine out of their young lives.
That's it.
True that.
But this is my January book.
I'm trying to read one book a month.
So I have to finish this before we get too far into February.
I'm more than halfway through it.
So I'll definitely finish it and then still have time to do my January book.
But that is a page that I marked after I read that because it was cuts.
Yep.
Yeah.
I've been good about reading.
I'm getting fit again slowly but surely.
Did Into the Darkness by Lothrop Stoddard?
Now I'm on to Hitler by Wyndham Lewis from Mohill.
I started that, but then this James Connolly book showed up and so I dropped it.
I know that's it.
But it was good.
What I read of Hitler was really good.
Absolutely.
And I will finish it.
I will finish it.
I'll probably make that my February book.
The glimpse into those 30s with Smart commentators is something else really gets the noggin jogging.
All right, gentlemen.
Speaking of fitness, I pulled 365 pounds today on deadlift.
Hell yeah.
Yep.
Just one rep. My bench is extremely weak right now.
My wrist can't hold up to weight resting on it.
But if I if it's hanging from it, it doesn't seem to bother me.
So that's everybody's wrist update.
Keep at it.
Yep.
Remember, push-ups with your kids on your back, sit-ups with them cradled in your arms, and all the rest of it.
Go sledding.
Have fun.
Full house episode 78 was taped on a snowy snow is lingering February 4th now, February 5th, 2021.

The BitChute videos are not processing.
We don't know if they're screwing us or if there's some technical flaw there.
But anyway, BitChute is just deplatforming people.
Yeah, I know.
I'm tempted to just wash our hands of it and let all Mr. Producer's work go to waste there.
Sorry, I can't resist.
No, seriously, check us out on YouTube.
We're still up on YouTube, closing in on a thousand followers, which will fit in there.
Isolate that one.
We're also on Gab and D Live.
Anyway, fam, you know where to find us.
Check the show notes.
So to all white families struggling to provide their children with as wholesome of childhoods as possible, the struggle is real and it even extends to bedtime stories.
So go pick up My Mirror Tells a Story and other fine pro-white kids literature and tell the devils to go back to hell.
