You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the political cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the political cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Welcome back, everybody, to tonight's second hour.
It is Saturday evening, November the 16th, as another year just continues to roll on.
This is our first time in three weeks that we've had a quote-unquote regular show.
We've had three weeks of special events, I guess you could say, going back to three weeks ago tonight where we were doing the live broadcast from the floor of the 15th anniversary celebration of TPC.
TPC's founding two weeks ago, we had the post-conference review show, and then last week the regular crew was out for a much-needed night off, and we had Winston Smith and Sam Bushman anchoring the show.
Fantastic job they did, but tonight we're back in the saddle in a big way.
Mark Weber in the first hour, Paul Fromm still coming up in the third hour, but right now holding the middle is our good friend Brad Griffin, the founder and editor-in-chief of Occidental Descent.
And I just found out this week that Brad appreciates Bruce Willis's role as the jackal as much as I do.
That is a great movie and an overlooked role in Bruce's portfolio.
Would you agree, Brad?
Oh, I agree.
It was one of my favorite movies back in the day.
Mine too.
And he has so many to choose from.
I mean, of course, we instantly think Die Hard.
But you know, that's even too modern for me.
I have to go back to the 50s and really not even the late 50s in order to find wholesome fare.
So I congratulate you guys for going through the sewage system that is Hollywood today and finding a few gems every once in a while.
I wouldn't necessarily say it's wholesome.
It's just a great movie.
But anyway, so Brad, listen, this thing, I don't even know if I'm pronouncing it correctly.
You know, we're middle-aged.
We got the old guard here in Keith.
No longer young.
You're no longer young.
Oh, my God.
You're as young as these people.
Is it the Groyper Wars?
How do you even pronounce that?
And what is it?
Yeah, it's the Groyper War.
And when you said, you know, us being middle-aged, that is the key social fact.
When did that happen, by the way?
Well, this got started, I'd say, in late September, if I'm not mistaken.
No, When did we become middle-aged?
When did that happen?
It's just like we weren't, and then we were.
It's crept up.
That's why life is.
We've got married.
I'm about to be 39.
I have a son.
You have a daughter and a son.
It's crept up all the time.
40 is a new 30, Bran.
That's right.
Yeah, Brad.
Anyway, the big story here, the key story as I see it, is that the generation that's underneath us is in their 20s now and is developing their political views.
They came of age in the age of Trump, which is a very different time from when we came of age and Bill Clinton was president his second term or George W. Bush in his first term.
And now there's a whole generation that's done come up underneath us.
You know, it's 20 years into the 21st century and that tends to happen.
And that generation is reading Pat Buchanan.
And much like we did back in the day, conservatism is significantly weaker, I would say, today than it was, you know, when I was in my 20s when I was 21.
And so do you have this whole generation, especially of, it seems, of Generation Z, mostly Catholic-leaning college conservatives, people who were, you know, just figuring out their political views.
Even when Trump announced he was running for president, many of these people weren't even alt-right.
I mean, that's how young they are.
Some of them maybe had got red-pilled or developed nationalist views in the last two years, maybe since Charlottesville.
And what's happened is that, you know, Conservatism Inc., as we call it, is so decrepit now in the age of Charlie Kirk, and it's just such a tottering dinosaur of a force.
Its grip on young Generation Z conservatives is extremely weak.
And what's happened since the end of September is that Nick Fuentes, I don't know if you know who that is.
He's a YouTube personality based in Chicago.
He's, I think, 21, 22 years old now, developed his views around the time Trump was president, became president.
I mean, he was developing his worldview.
Clearly, he was a libertarian in, like, I'd say, late 2015, when Trump, during the first phase of the Trump campaign.
Well, a few of Nick's supporters who watch his YouTube show have been going to these Charlie Kirk and conservative campus events.
And there's these, they, a big thing apparently they do is the conservatives like Ben Shapiro, Steven Crowder, Charlie Kirk and so forth, is they have these Q ⁇ A sessions on college campuses.
And this is the primary way they interact with young conservatives on campus.
They recruit people into Conservatism Inc. and kind of secure the next generation.
Well, they decided to disrupt that by going and asking like embarrassing questions.
Like, you know, they asked Charlie Kirk about if he was a conservative, you know, why is he endorsing homosexuality and transgenderism and stuff like that.
And they thought that was, you know, just funny.
And they, I guess they stumbled into this tactic.
And they, you know, they thought that was a funny, asking these questions real funny.
They got a video of it.
They cut it.
They circulated on YouTube.
I mean, I'm sorry, on Twitter.
It went viral.
People laughed about it.
And then, like, once they saw it worked, the Groypers, as they call, or as they're called, a Groyper, if you remember 2015, you had the 2016, you had the Pepe.
Pepe the Frog, you know, was the symbol of the alt-by-den.
The Groyper is the, you know, the guy who created Pepe the Frog, you know, sued to get the copyright back.
And so into the vacuum, into the vacuum, a new cartoon frog was created called the Groyper, which is this, you know, an older, fatter, toad version of Pepe.
And that's kind of the younger generation is kind of rallied behind this avatar.
And they're going and being irreverent in the face of Turning Points USA, which is this neocon at best, very liberal, conservative, incorporated entity.
And Charlie Kirk is their face and their figurehead.
And they're just basically going in there and showing him up, right?
I mean, they're asking him questions that any real conservative would be on board with and forcing him to unmask himself in a very embarrassing way.
Is that what's going on?
Yes, that's exactly the case.
Charlie Turst and I mean Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA is a donor-funded organization by the RNZ.
I believe he started it with Foster Freis, I want to say his name, or Friest, or I don't know how you pronounce it.
A major GOP donor started bankrolling this basically to indoctrinate the next generation of conservatives in like the donor class ideology.
And Charlie Kirk, of course, has no depth at all in anything resembling conservatism.
And so he's really easy to show off on at these QA sessions on campus.
And then the Groypers who were followers, some of the followers of Nick started asking him questions and it snowballed from there.
All right, we'll continue with that at the top of the next segment.
We're going to take a quick break.
Brad Griffin.
Truly a website that I go to every single day, occidentaldescent.com.
It is, for my buddy, the best website that we have in our entire cause.

I am there every day without fail and you should be too.
Founder and editor-in-chief Brad Griffin with us right now.
Hi, I'm Patty, wife of former Congressman Steve Stockman.
In Congress, Steve saw an impeachment of Eric Holder for his corruption of the Justice Department and his fast and furious gun running that caused border agent Brian Talley's death.
Steve called for arrest of Lois Lerner for her contempt of Congress as it investigated her targeting of conservative nonprofit groups.
After four years, four grand juries and millions of tax dollars, Steve Stockman is in prison.
His case involved four checks to nonprofits.
DOJ has one standard for Hillary Clinton, but another for folks like President Trump and my husband.
We've spent all our savings, all Steve's retirement, and much of mine.
Steve Stockman has fought for you and America.
Won't you join me now to fight for Steve?

Recent studies show that parents who smoke in the home are more likely to have children who smoke.
Yes, in fact, my brother, he's 22 now.
He told me and my father that's why he started smoking.
One of the reasons why he started smoking is because my dad was around, you know, and my dad, they saw my dad smoking.
My dad said, okay, I don't want you to smoke.
I don't want you to watch what I'm doing.
Recent studies also show that in homes where parents don't smoke, their children usually don't smoke either.
I am the way I am because my grandparents taught me what not to do.
They gave me morals.
They gave me belief.
They gave me something to believe in.
They just taught me, well, I love them.
I do.
Smoking.
If you think you're old enough to start, you're smart enough to stop.
A public service message from this station and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Abby Johnson was once director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Bryan, Texas.
After a moral crisis, she quit and now she campaigns against what she once endorsed.
They implement abortion quotas in all of their clinics.
What do you mean, quotas?
You have to perform a certain number of abortions every month.
One of the reasons that I left?
Yes, it's in your budget, right there on the line item.
One of the reasons I left Planned Parenthood was because in a budget meeting, I was told to double that abortion quota.
And for me, as someone who had spoken to the media and had said, you know, we're about reducing the number of abortions or about, you know, prevention, all these other services, I was shocked.
So since you actually worked at a Planned Parenthood, give us some sense of the relative number of abortions.
Okay.
Abortions Planned Parenthood provides over 330,000 abortions a year.
They are the largest single abortion provider in our country.

And now back to tonight's show.
Well, we got to get to the most important topic of the entire night, and that is what's going on at Popeye's Chicken.
And Brad's been covering that too at OccidentalDescent.com.
But first, the Groypers.
So these are the irreverent, the marauding conservatives, maybe paleo cons.
I don't know how they would identify.
But the younger generation of such, right?
Whatever we are.
They're the younger generation.
They're going to the Conservatism Inc. tour led by Charlie Kirk at Turning Points USA, which is basically just, as Brad puts it, I think, what, conservative liberalism or liberal conservative, whatever.
I mean, it's nothing good.
And they're giving him a hard time, and rightfully so, and they're holding their ground.
And for the most part, they've been really punking him out at all of his stops.
But what good does that do us, Brad?
I mean, what good can come from this ultimately?
Well, you know, that's a great question because if, you know, at the end of the day, we all rally behind Charlie Kirk and Trump, they have no really incentive to change.
But at the same time, we have to remember that the single most important thing going on right now is less than the election than this whole younger generation, Generation Z, which is just like I was when I was Nick's age, 21, 22.
I was being alienated from Conservatism Inc.
I was disgusted by the Iraq war.
I was reading Pat Buchanan and that period shaped my whole adult trajectory.
So I would say that breaking Generation Z away from mainstream conservatism is a very important goal.
It's probably more important than the outcome of the 2020 election.
Where was it going with this?
I was asking you, I mean, what good could ultimately come from them going there, making Charlie Kirk and Conservatism Incorporated, which isn't conservative at all, look like fools, which they are.
I mean, they have done a good job of doing that.
That needs to be done.
But will it have any long-lasting ramifications?
It could.
I mean, like, it's really, you know, an opportunity to reach people and turn them in our direction.
I'm not against it.
I think, you know, it's hilarious that Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro and so forth are being owned and humiliated in the eyes of young conservatives, and this is becoming a thing.
I think that's great.
But of course, first of all, this whole GROIPA war is pretty much over now because these college campus tours are synonymous with fall semester.
Fall semester is pretty much over, so this is winding down rapidly towards the end of the year.
So I think it's great that they reached all these new people and expanded their audience.
But that alone is not going to break the grip of conservatism Inc. over the right.
You've got to politically break them, I would say.
But you just can't go out and support them and expect them to change.
Brad, this is Keith.
Two things, okay?
First of all, I've been following your articles, and you are the most prolific writer I can think of in our movement at this time.
I mean, how you spin all this out is astounding me.
But what they seem to be, what the Charlie Kirks and his ilk seem to be most afraid of, and it comes through with their comments, is identity politics.
They're like Shelby Steele in the previous generation.
They want everybody to embrace identity politics except white Gentiles.
And that tells me that white Gentiles need to grab on to identity politics like a bulldog with a bloody bone.
That's the only way we can fight this war effectively.
It's like, as long as we don't have identity politics, in other words, where you basically make white advocacy or advocacy for your group as a white Gentile the centerpiece for your political viewpoint, basically we're bringing a knife to a gunfight.
And the left and the protectors of the left, which would include Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro and people like that, realize that.
And their whole purpose in this, you know, traveling roadshow they have, I think, is to make sure that people realize that embracing identity politics for white Gentiles is going to be like your child putting his hand on the burner on the stove.
Well, what's so delicious, respond to that, Brad, but what's so delicious that even Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro, as reprehensible and as disgusting as they are, even they are called gateways to neo-Nazism by the controlled press.
That's absolutely the case.
Ben Shapiro is labeled a neo-Nazi and a white supremacist all the time.
Trump is Jewish.
Yeah, Trump is being called a neo-Nazi and a white nationalist and a white supremacist by Beto Rourke.
But to Keith's point, I mean, the real straw that's breaking the camel's back here, I'd say, is, you know, Charlie Kirk is going around promoting drag queens and transsexuals as, you know, transsexual identity politics is legitimate, but you can't be white, right?
You can be a Jewish.
It's not okay to be white.
It's not okay to be white, but it's okay to be a militant Jewish Zionist or a transsexual.
And that's just preposterous to young, white, conservative Christians, especially.
And by driving...
See, look at the Stephen Miller situation, Brad.
Very...
Not only can you not adopt our positions, you can't even visit our websites without being in jeopardy of being cast into the outer darkness.
And like and like Ben Shapiro, Stephen Miller is Jewish, but it doesn't give him, you know, they'll turn on him if they can score a point, I guess.
No, that's absolutely the case.
You know, Stephen Miller, he's also white supremacy.
Everything is white supremacy these days.
You know that.
I mean, stuff that would never even occur to us is, according to the left these days, white supremacist.
Well, look, this begs a bigger question, Brad.
I'm glad you touched on that.
So here you have these two Jewish individuals, Stephen Miller and Ben Shapiro, being called neo-Nazis, even though in the case of Ben Shapiro, like Charlie Kirk, denounces whites at every turn and denounces identitarianism for whites while promoting it for everyone else at every turn.
But even the president of the United States, who has done really very little for whites and certainly won't mention them when he talks about what he's done for the blacks, the gays, the Jews, etc.
He'll never mention the whites, the people who actually voted for him.
But even the president of the United States is being denounced very regularly by every major organ in the media as a neo-Nazi idea.
Well, what this shows, James, is this.
It shows that our ideas, Brad's ideas, your ideas, my ideas, are so compelling that they can't allow anybody to get within shouting distance of them without casting them to the wool.
That's the question, Brad, very quickly.
Does it help our cause when people such as Shapiro, Miller, Kirk, and Trump are being called white supremacists?
Does that help lessen the sting of the smear?
Oh, oh, absolutely.
You know, this whole charge of racism, neo-nazism, white supremacism has gone like so far, you know, into like lunatic territory that, you know, a lot of people just roll their eyes at it.
I mean, does it legitimize our very truthful and well-reasoned and common sense, fact-based message that the president of the United States is being, look, if Trump could be called that, the president could be called that, how bad could these guys really call it?
Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro can be called it.
I think the key, James, is this.
Whenever, if we ever get to the point that Charlie Kirk and James Sapiro start making common cause with us, we will have turned a massive corner, but I don't see that happening.
Well, I don't see it happening except for the fact that, look, normal people have to, I think, believe and realize that, hey, look, if they're calling Trump this, I mean, what about these other guys?
Maybe there's something to them, right, Brad?
Yeah, yeah.
I think, you know, the more and more the mainstream goes insane, and the more normal and reasonable we look in contrast, that's, you know, helping our growth.
I recently noticed a kind of a rebound of things.
It's all the negative energy of Charlottesville.
And I feel like a big wave is coming on that's going to propel us to new heights in 2020, regardless of what happens with Trump and Hitler.
Hold on right there, Brad.
I know we only had you booked for two seconds tonight.
If you can give us five more minutes on the flip side, I really want to talk about Popeyes.
That's the one thing I was looking forward to.
That's something that James really can identify with because it's eating.
I finally got one of those spicy chicken sandwiches from Popeye.
The thing that people have been dying over.
We'll talk to Brad about that very quickly when we come back to the letting clock.
Protecting your liberties.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio, USA Radio News with Tim Berg.
Polls have closed in Louisiana where the runoff election for governor is taking place.
Democrat incumbent John Bell Edwards is hoping to stay in office despite President Trump campaigning for his Republican opponent, Eddie Risponi.
We have a situation here where we have a job creator, particularly like in the oil and gas industry, where we've lost thousands of jobs because of the lawsuit abuse by John Bell Edwards' plaintiff attorneys.
So we need to turn something around here.
Political experts believe the race is too close to call.
Five people are dead and an 11-year-old is in critical condition after a shooting inside a San Diego home.
Police say the dead include a man, woman, and three children under the age of 10.
The sixth victim is currently in surgery.
No arrests have been made, but police say there is no further threat to the public, nor are there any outstanding suspects.
And you're listening to USA Radio News.
Hello, this is Wayne Allen Rood, relentless conservative warrior, middle-class warrior, and always Trump warrior.
I have a message for my fellow patriots across America.
President Trump is making America great again.
He's the only president of my lifetime who is keeping his promises, and his biggest promise is to build that wall.
President Trump can only do it with our help.
If Congress won't fund Trump's wall, we will.
President Trump is one man against the world.
And what globalists and socialists around the world want is clear, open borders.
It's time to take a stand.
We either build the wall or it's the end of the greatest nation in world history ever blessed by God.
That's why I founded the Root for the Wall PAC.
63 million Trump voters together will raise the money President Trump needs for the wall.
Anyone who donates $100 or more will get a beautiful commemorative wall brick.
Display it proudly.
Call 844 Root Wall.
That's so free.

Chicago teachers give the thumbs up to a historic deal.
USA Radio Network's Wendy King has the details.
Chicago teachers have approved the contract deal that ended an 11-day strike.
It includes pay raises, $35 million to enforce limits on class sizes, and a place to supply each school with a nurse and a social worker.
More than 25,000 members went on strike October 17th.
The teachers held marches and rallies across the city, and the district kept the schools open but canceled two weeks of classes.
More than 300,000 students and their families were affected.
Police in New Jersey say five men are being charged in Friday night's shooting at a high school football game that left three people wounded.
The shooting occurred at Pleasantville High School and it sent players and fans running for cover.
Authorities say a 10-year-old boy is among the wounded and is in critical condition after being shot in the neck.
One suspect is charged with three counts of attempted murder.
And you're listening to USA Radio News.
It's time to jump back into the political cesspool.
To be part of the show and have your voice heard around the world, call us at 1-866-986-6397.
Well, if you want to read more about the Groyper Wars or Reuper Wars.
I can't pronounce it right.
Keith, you know, I'm not in with the in crowd anymore.
I'm 39.
I'll be 40 next year.
You know, I don't know what Nick Frances is talking about.
But anyway, whatever it is, if you want to follow it, if there's anything of interest to you, I can guarantee you Brad's covering it at occidentaldescent.com, including the recent spat of violence at Popeyes Chicken.
Now, why did this become a matter of interest to me?
Well, one of our very first claims to fame here on TPC was talking about the rash of violence that always seems to befall Chuck E. Cheese.
The racial dynamic of certain food establishments.
There you go.
And Chuck E. Cheese has long had this reputation as being just, well, I don't even know how to put it, but you probably know what I'm getting at if you're a regular listener.
I mean, they have, you know, a lot of violence from the wrong side of the tracks.
Why isn't this happening at Chick-fil-A?
Well, this actually gets to a hell of a meme from a movie that was released in 2000.
It's called Bring It On, and it stars Kirsten Dunst, who was one of the hot young things in that time, and her all-white cheerleading squad.
And they have this cheerleading competition about this all-black cheerleading squad.
So it's taking on a meme of its own where Kristen Dunst's crew represents Chick-fil-A and the black crew represents Popeyes.
You have these chicken battles, but I will say, I bought into the hype.
When that chicken sandwich came out, James was dying to get it.
Earlier this summer, and everybody was sold out.
I kept looking.
I wanted it.
I mean, people were dying for it, literally getting stabbed, getting knived.
And now he's eating one and he understands it all.
He's willing to risk his life for one of those.
Well, I did finally get one about two weeks ago, a little bit after I read that Brad had had one.
And it was good.
I don't know if I take a shiv for it, but what's going on at Popeyes, Brad, and why is it happening at Popeyes?
Oh, it's just the usual.
Well, you know, Popeyes has always been more of aone who's been the Popeyes over the past 20 years.
You know, it's more of a black fast food chain.
And since it started, this, you know, these fast food wars go on all the time.
You have Wendy sniping at Burger King on Twitter.
The Popeyes Chick-fil-A battle is really funny.
And Popeyes came out with the sandwich, and it was laughable.
They ran out of chicken and Chick-fil-A made fun of them.
And it was, and I, when it first came out, I wanted to get the sandwich too.
But, like, I mean, the demand for it, they couldn't keep up the demand for it.
It collapsed.
And we just laughed about it.
And then they rolled it back out again earlier this month.
I finally got my wife to bring me one home.
I did the same thing.
I got my wife to bring me one home.
And I was so excited.
You put your wife in harm's way to get your sandwich.
Drive-through, Keith.
There is drive-through.
We wouldn't send them in.
Yeah, yeah.
She was.
You got to go to Occidental Descent and watch all of the people who, you know, you're talking about fist fights, body slams, hospitality.
Put Chucky cheese in the shade.
I've never seen anybody get murdered at Chucky Cheese.
I mean, you're talking about literal murders over these chicken sandwiches.
Well, that's because, of course, the people that, yeah, you got a Chick-fil-A.
It's like all these, you know, the church choir in there serving, taking your order and serving your meal.
It's always all white.
They have the best manners on the universe, in the universe.
And you go to Popeyes.
I mean, you can see it in these videos.
I mean, even the workers there are kind of like getting in on the act.
They're fighting each other and fighting with the customers or just laughing with the customers, start beating each other over the chicken.
How has our culture been boiled down to Chick-fil-A versus Popeyes?
You know, I think it's great.
And I think both black people and white people are kind of laughing about it.
Laughing about it.
Because, I mean, everyone knows, you know, race is real.
And, you know, Popeyes is a black restaurant.
And they know, you know, the whiteness and the Christianity, eventually, the Christianity of Chick-fil-A will just knock you off your feet.
You go in there and it's a little white Christian, blonde, 18, 19-year-old serving you.
Have a blessed day at Chick-fil-A.
Anyway, so I went to Popeyes again for the, you know, to get the second sandwich because I liked it the first time.
And I didn't like it so much when I had to, I didn't like it so much when I had to sit there for 20 minutes in a restaurant that wasn't even busy to get the sandwich.
And I've got an answer to it all.
Chick-fil-A, they'll be the line of any given Chick-fil-A at any given time of day in any given city.
We'll be wrapped around the restaurant twice.
They get you in and out there in 20 minutes, no problem.
Well, I've found something that I want to share with both of you gentlemen.
Even at a place like Taco Bell in a ghetto, you will find arguments breaking up, breaking up.
You know, that you'll find people getting down into arguments with these white staff, the white staff coming back aggressively.
I think it all gets down to something called ASPD, Brad.
You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah.
Antisocial personality disorder.
And basically, stupid and crazy are linked.
If you have an IQ of under 85, you're three times more likely to be diagnosed with ASPD than if you have an IQ of over 100.
Well, we saw that in the NFL game on Monday night football, or was it Thursday?
No, it was Thursday night, Thursday night, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
You got low IQ, poor impulse control, and things happen.
You know, you start getting beat on the head with your own helmet, you know, in certain situations.
But anyway, Brad, we got two minutes left.
We've already kept you 15 minutes longer than we had than we had.
Well, we've enjoyed it.
No, no, we've been, no, I'd keep you all night.
I just don't want to take up your time.
But no, the question is, how does Popeyes versus Chick-fil-A represent the greater theater at large with regard to racial differences?
Well, I mean, it just really embodies it because, you know, part of the reason there's so much violence at Popeyes is because the service is so terrible because They're just not as organized or as disciplined as Chick-fil-A, and they can't get the food ready on time, and people will sit there and low IQ, as you said, and get into arguments.
And whereas Chick-fil-A, you know, tends to be very snappy, even though it can be extremely fast, but it's usually extremely busy, I would say.
So it really just.
What it descends into is this, Brad.
Any criticism is equated with disrespecting.
And one thing that the Popeyes patrons will not tolerate is being disrespectful.
But, you know, it's not a laughing matter when you're talking about literal deaths, people being killed over skipping in line to get this chicken sandwich.
But there's been other beatings and stabbings and things of that nature.
I mean, there's even been lawsuits where a guy said he wrecked his car because he was driving around town trying to find a Popeyes that had a chicken sandwich.
And he got so flummoxed that he wrecked and he sued Popeyes for causing the wreck because they were sold out of chicken.
How long?
I mean, you can't integrate this stuff up.
Like over 50 years now, right?
50 years of integration.
They were killing each other at Popeyes.
Black killing each other.
Maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all.
Man, it didn't work, did it?
No one can dispute it.
They can just shout out to you.
Brad's got a view.
Exactly.
Yeah, you're not if you want to, you know, not get your fast foods.
Although, I got to admit, I bought into the hype.
I really wanted one of those things.
Show was good, wasn't it, James?
It wasn't good.
I mean, I'm not such a white supremacist, so I'm going to say that.
It was good.
I liked it.
It's just not worth it.
20 minutes of line and possibly getting killed for it.
Yeah, it's not worth it.
And you know what?
It's cheaper than what you get at Chick-fil-A.
And so you save money, but at a great cost.
Well, potentially a great cause.
And it hasn't been isolated incidents.
I mean, there have been quite a few of these incidents where you've had some violence.
And I mean, it's a pretty gruesome stuff.
And again, if you're interested in this, if you're interested in anything, I guarantee you, Brad's covering it at occidentaldescent.com.
Videos, audio, written word, he's the man.
All the gory details.
That's it.
I mean, it's at occidentaldescent.com.
And what a great historian he is, too, with regard, well, really, to anything he puts his mind to, but such a great in recent months.
Got his finger on the pulse.
Southern History series, if that interests you.
I mean, we always do the Confederate History Month series in April here on TPC, but Brad's got it for you.
You know, Jack, I'll tell you what Brad does.
He does what we all ought to be doing.
He's been able to figure out a way to make a living off of this.
So what does he do?
He doesn't just sit back and enjoy himself.
He puts all of his bone and marrow and blood and whatnot into doing research and studying things and getting a deeper, more informed understanding of all of the background information and history that is pertinent to the type of things that he covers.
And my hats off to you, Brad.
You're doing a great job.
Well, thanks, Keith.
I appreciate it.
All right, Brad.
Well, listen, we got seconds remaining, and the final word is to you.
Anything we left out?
Nothing.
That about covers it.
You can follow me at occidentaldescent.com, and we'll keep up with Popeyes and the Gorpo War and other thoughts.
And much, much, much more.
And you're experiencing growing pain.
You had to get a bigger server to accommodate the traffic.
So there's a good reason for that, folks.
They're covering anything of interest that you may have there at occidentaldescent.com.
Brad, we love you.
We appreciate you.
We look forward to talking to you again soon and grateful to have you on the show tonight.
You too, James.
Thank you.
Heck of a guy.
We don't care what the SPLC says.
None of us do.
All right.
Right, Griffin, everybody.
OccidentalDescent.com.
We'll be back.
Keith and I are going to wrap up this hour.
Let's hang on and come back to the political cesspool right after these messages here on the Liberty News Radio Network.

Kosher, certified.
Put the two words together to get Kosh certified, which is spelled with an SEH instead of just SH.
It's the right way to spell this, the German way, and it made it easier to trademark.
Now, did I tell you that the letters SCH still make the shh sound?
As in all those American food producers saying, shh, let's keep it really quiet that our product is kosher certified.
Think about it.
Nearly one century of kosher certification, and hardly anyone outside Exclusive Observers knows that most packaged food and kitchen products are literally certified by religious intermediaries.
Well, because you, consumer, are indirectly paying for this.
The Coach Certified app is here to make kosher certification awareness an inclusive matter for people of all faiths and identities.
And it even boasts a unique database of products not kosher certified.
We call that NKC.
Start meming it.
It's fun.
NKC, not kosher certified.
Now, to confuse our audience even more, we put a question mark at the end of our name, and that really cinched our trademark approval.

Well, Keith, Getting back into the regular saddle, as it were.
How do you think we're doing tonight, if you don't mind giving a self-assessment?
Mark Weber, Brad Griffin so far, Paul Fromm still to come, and Jack Ryan.
I think we're getting great substance, but we're keeping it light and lively, which is, I think, you know, our trademark, basically.
Everybody has a good time, but they get well-informed at the same time.
Well, there's one more thing.
And God forbid if we go back and revisit this, because we've done it two out of the last three weeks.
We can't help doing it.
Well, we really can't help ourselves on this.
But, of course, as I mentioned, three weeks ago, we were broadcasting live from the 15th anniversary celebration for the founding of TPC.
15 years to the day it was, because we went on the air for the first time on October 26, 2004.
And it just so happened that Saturday this year fell on October the 26th.
And so it was actually 15 years to the day that we had that 15th anniversary celebration with the wonderful live audience, the sold-out crowd, the great speakers and guests, and just everything that went into that.
And we did that live broadcast.
The following week, we had the review, the post-mortems.
And then last week, of course, the regular crew had a much needed and well-deserved night off.
And Sam and Winston, along with the two great guests, came together.
Winston is kind of like Haley's Comedy.
He flies through every 75 years.
Well, he flies through twice a year.
Twice a year, but I mean, whenever he comes, he never disappoints.
He is just, you know, sharp as attack, gets everything going.
And everybody always, you know, says that it's among the best shows of the year.
So Winston, if you're listening, buddy, you're truly appreciated.
Even though you don't spend a lot of, you know, air time with us, whenever you do, it's quality time.
He's still part of the family.
And listen, you know, I don't know if you know this or not, but Saturday nights, that's normally a night.
Normal people go out and do things together.
But, of course, we abandoned all of that when we signed on to this time slot.
But it was nice to have a week off last week with my wife.
And I thank everybody for filling in.
And, of course, Ken Gibbeden and Reverend Brett McEntee, great guests.
It was a great show.
But anyway, two of the last three weeks have dealt with the conference.
But just now, just two days ago, one of our conference attendees, Wilburn Sprayberry, who describes himself as a recovering alcoholic, non-professional Texan, ex-soldier, former teacher, avid backpacker, and part-time grouch.
He is truly a great guy and one of our favorite people.
And he's never missed a TPC anniversary.
And not only has he never missed one of these anniversary events, he has never failed to write the official and the officially commissioned and sanctioned review.
And so that actually, even though three weeks late, not late per se, but three weeks after, yes, exactly.
He was not on a deadline, and he does it, and he does it when he can, and we're thankful for it.
But three weeks after the fact, it came in, and we posted it on Thursday, and he wrote the definitive review, the official review for TPC and our 15th anniversary celebration.
And I encourage you to go to our website, thepolitical Successpool.org, and read it.
He really takes you behind the scenes and he lets you know what you missed out on if you weren't there.
And if you were there, it's good for you to read it again and to relive some of that magic.
But the one paragraph, Keith, and I know we spent a whole show two weeks ago covering the audience and the aftermath and the afterglow.
But he really caught it all in one paragraph when he wrote this.
I sat at the same table with a charming woman from Alabama and her South African-born husband who processed game meats for a living, an airline pilot from California, a former naval aviator and his wife from Chicago, a homebuilder and his wife from Texas, and a fellow Dallas desperado and business owner who lives in the nicest part of that city.
Pretty much an average table for one of TPC's events.
So he's describing that the people with whom he sat at our anniversary celebration, and that is the audience we draw.
Those are the people who tune into this program.
Those are the people we are so proud, honored, privileged, and humbled to represent.
And they're tuned in tonight.
And I want to give them one final salute as we move forward.
Let me say this.
If somebody didn't enjoy themselves, I haven't heard of it yet.
Everybody that went there had nothing but glowing things to say about the whole episode.
And James, I don't know how you do it.
I think it's just, you know, what you call it, dumb luck or symbiosis or something.
But every time you put one of these things together, everybody goes away with good feelings about everything, about the movement, about our show, about other people in the movement.
Everything about it, you know, is an upper, you know, something that causes people to, you know, say, I want more of this.
I need to get more involved in it because these are some of the best people in the world.
That's a feeling I had.
Well, you know, Keith, of course, we toil and we toil and we toil in these vineyards week in, week out, for years at a time.
You know, 15 years, you know, for that matter.
And it is, wow, what an oasis to have these random intermittent events where we can all come together and just celebrate.
It's so good to get feedback from the people.
When we find out the quality of the people that listen to our show, follow us, support us.
It's truly humbling.
I mean, it's like somehow we've cast a magic net out there and caught the very best of humanity.
I love how you worded that.
I mean, that's absolutely right.
And Wilburton goes on to write about the lots in italics of pretty young mothers.
And boy, wasn't that true?
And their beautiful young children.
If this weren't beneath us, Keith, I think for a fundraising incentive, if you took the TPC calendar girls, you did a 12-month calendar of some of the females in our audience, that would rival any of those calendars that are out there on the market.
There were beautiful women at that event.
And furthermore, if white people generally are having a decline in birth rates, you couldn't tell it from a TPC, a political cesspool convention.
And that's not universal, by the way, in our movement.
As great as some of these other organizations are, and we work with them and they're our friends, you do see more of a family-friendly, healthy, virile vibe at a TPC event.
And it's just, I don't know if we attract them or, well, I guess, I mean, obviously we do, but I mean, I don't know exactly why that is necessarily, but no, I mean, that is our audience.
And anyway, Wilbur Sprayberry touches on all of that.
If you go to our website, thepoliticalcesspool.org, you pull up the blog, you go to the article entitled TPC at 15, Wilburn Sprayberry's official review.
He talks about the speakers.
You know, we covered that at length a couple of weeks ago.
The speakers, the audience, we just mentioned the networking, the food, just everything you may have missed.
If you weren't there, read it and you can learn a little bit more about it.
If you were there, relive it because, man, these opportunities are few and far between.
We've got to savor them all.
Well, Wilburn, the next time we're going to have to give you a chaperone to make sure that you don't have too much to drink so that you can cover every one of the speeches rather than having to nurse a hangover the next day.
I laughed.
I got a belly gut laugh when he wrote that he had to miss a couple of speeches because he had to pay his debt to Bacchus, the Roman god of wine.
He was paying his debt and had to miss those.
But listen, Wilbur Sprayberry, you know, he's another guy who's an all-American.
I mean, all kidding aside, I mean, we're joking a little bit about because he writes about this in the article.
I mean, he partied if he wasn't doing it to himself.
Well, he partied a little bit.
We all did.
I mean, don't get us wrong.
He had an opportunity to miss, whereas we couldn't, although perhaps we would have if we had the opportunity or the occasion.
We had to be there.
But Wilburn is a guy who has been with us damn near since the beginning.
I mean, if he wasn't there on day one, he wasn't there much long after.
He represents everything that we want out of an audience member.
Great guy.
Loyal supporter.
Gregarious friend.
Well, I mean, you could say that about everybody who was there and really everybody that's tuned in tonight, even though people we've never met or never received correspondence from.
I mean, we know you're out there.
Let me just tell you this, folks.
If you're listening, the next time something like this comes up, do yourself a favor, make the effort and come to it.
You will not be disappointed.
And we don't do these every year.
We do them when the Spirit moves us.
Sometimes every other year, sometimes it may be three years or more in between.
But we do them when we can.
And anyway, come, you'll be glad you did.
I didn't necessarily meant to revisit this again because we have spent so much time on it, really, truly two of the last three weeks entirely.
One week we were there.
Don't just take our word for it.
Read Wilburn Sprayberry.
But this just came out on Thursday, and so we wanted to make mention of it.
And it's a great piece, and we encourage you to read it.
What else do I have here on my notes?
Oh, oh, this is big.
I'm glad I wrote this down.
If you were there, if you were there at that anniversary event and you did not get the gift bag that was complimentary to all those in attendance, and that gift bag included the fall 2019 edition of the Occidental Quarterly, as well as two of our favorite interviews that we've conducted on this show with Pap Buchanan, if you've somehow left that event without yours, send me an email and we'll get it to you.
If you donated $100 or more at the event and you did not receive an autographed copy of Kevin McDonald's book, Cultural Insurrections, email me and we'll get that to you.
And we want to close the books.
I think everybody has been closed down.
I think everybody's gotten everything that they had intended to receive.
But if for some reason you have not, email me right now and we'll get that to you.
We want to close the books on all those offers because TPC's Christmas fundraising drive kicks off in two weeks and it's going to be a fresh slate there.
Noteworthy November.
Yes, indeed.
Go to our website too and read the article entitled Noteworthy November.
It's a recap of every guest we've brought onto the show since the first show of this year back on January the 6th.
