Time Text
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 test pool is your host, James Edwards.
But it's not like Christmas at all.
I remember when you were here.
And all the wand we had.
Three lights on the dream.
I'm watching them shine this morning.
You should be here with me this morning.
Baby, please come on.
If it gets any better than that, Keith Dan, Alexander, I'd sure as hell like for you to show me.
Pretty good stuff.
You know what?
I know I'm not supposed to compliment Phil Spector with the murder wrap and all, but I'll tell you, he was the greatest record producer in the rock and roll era.
Only second to Chips Moment.
No, only second, perhaps, to Bob Crewe and Bob Gadio of the four seasons, but even then, that's stiff competition.
He's out there in the top ten.
The wall of sound was real.
You put in every orchestra and symphonic instrument you can into a two-minute bubblegum pop song, and then look at what comes out.
And it truly was a symphony for the kiddies.
Well, let me say this in defense of Chips Mowen.
He was the one who did Elves' Comeback album.
He did Dusty Springfield.
He did the boxt tops.
He did Neil Diamond.
He did a bunch of guys that were gripmen.
That ring ring by the Cimarron, that was a bunch of guys that were working.
Telephone ring.
Maybe come on in.
Got James Taylor on the stereo.
That's it.
All right.
Well, listen, if there's one thing we stand for here at TPC, it's good music.
Anyway, we're going to be sharing it with you all through the Christmas season.
Now we're having some fun with some of these fun and light and fluffy Christmas songs.
Pure saccharin, it is.
As we get a little bit closer to Christmas, we're going to be shifting over to those very reverential hymns and Christmas carols, and we can't wait for that too.
It's all part of it.
And anyway, Keith, well, what a great show tonight, covering some news, covering some current events, but a fantastic guest in Sarah Dye, her debut appearance, and not a wasted minute in that second hour.
You're right.
We got a great place.
And it's, I tell you what, we are living in interesting times now, but we have to have some diversion from this.
We have to also remember that there are people on the ground that are not celebrities that aren't part of this bigger picture like that.
But on the other hand, they are suffering for no reason other than they are traditionally minded white people.
Well, you know, and this is the thing that attracts me to that lady and her family and their farm and their situation is the fact that, of course, here at TPC, we have been condemned and denounced on the record by the United States Congress on more than one occasion by truly, without exaggeration, every media outlet in the world, every major media outlet in the world.
I think there was one time in 2016, Keith, there were three articles about this program in the Washington Post on the same day.
Now, the Washington Post is no slouch.
New York Times, you name it.
Politicians and Celebrities 2, the Michigan Court of Appeals.
You know, we didn't want to bring that up because we didn't want a black pillar.
But are we dangerous?
Of course we're not.
This is just, we have become the whipping boy for the left and for the establishment.
Point is this, with that, you know, handing down that decision so infamous that it rewrote, literally rewrote the precedent for defamation.
Talking about your case against bankholders.
And then, you know, the Southern Baptist Convention expelling my entire church because expelling me wouldn't be quite good enough.
We could keep going, but we never backed down.
We have never surrendered.
We've never retreated.
We've never apologized.
That's our standard.
That's the example we set for others to follow here on this radio program.
We've done it for 16 years without an area of hiccup.
Not ever once have we faltered.
Now, I didn't want to make the last hour about us, but I say it is because that is who we are that we are attracted to other people who are standing up in a similar way.
And it is not easy.
It is not easy.
She's a woman.
She's got a family.
The easier thing to do is to run and to apologize.
They haven't done any of that.
They have stood their ground.
They have not apologized.
They are not recanting.
They are not backing down.
They are still trying to go in there and make a living and not be starved out.
And they're fighting this in court.
They're doing absolutely everything they can.
The least we can do is meet them halfway.
And you see what's happening here.
Apparently, the human race and Americans have not really advanced any from the days of the Salem witch trials.
These people are suffering a modern version of the Salem witch trials, and they have much less to apologize for than the Salem witches.
So let's just remember this.
Let's pray for people like this.
And let's have a sense of solidarity.
Let's recapture and rekindle the sense of racial solidarity that white Gentile people had when I was a child.
And I can give you various examples of this, but we have been subjected to so many defeats because of cultural Marxism and its control of all the institutions that set ethical standards and cultural standards that a lot of people are just, you know, it's like Stockholm syndrome.
Please, I'll say anything, just stop shocking me with the electrode or with the taser of the modern press and journalists and politicians and whatnot.
It's just, it's really discouraging to see what a craven lot of conformists our politicians are.
That is why I think, Keith, I mean, we have covered the news of the day.
As we said, up until the end of the election, even really a couple of weeks after the election, it was just one haymaker after another.
It was one volatile news cycle after another.
And we could still choose to be wrapped up in all of that and dedicate each minute of each hour of each show all the way through Christmas and beyond to that.
But, you know, I said last week.
And God's Hand was in last week's show because when I walked onto that property last week, I had not a guest.
I had not, I mean, obviously I was going to share with the people what I saw and what I experienced that day in South Carolina, actually a week ago today.
But that's not three hours worth of content.
And it was just incredible guest after incredible guests.
People who've never been on the radio before, they just came and they sold the show.
And so I was committed at that very moment after hearing what they presented to us and to our audience last week to continue that throughout the rest of the year.
I think it's especially important as we enter into the Christmas season, a season of goodwill and giving and hope and all of that.
I mean, Christ's salvation and birth and the promise of all of that.
And, you know, what would you rather have done tonight, Keith?
Would you rather, you know, talked about the standard fair?
Would you rather hear the story of Sarah Dai and hear a story of a real family, just like you heard from real men last week in South Carolina?
Not movement celebrities.
I mean, you know, listen, we love our regular sable of guests.
They're more than guests.
They're friends and their family.
And we'll continue to showcase them and promote them and do all of that because they deserve it.
But it has been a real treat these last two weeks to bring you people that maybe you haven't heard of before.
Now, this story with Sarah Dai has been covered, but that's what I want to do between now and Christmas.
And she's really got to do both of them.
to tell you more about that after these words from our sponsors.

Hi, I'm Patty, wife of former Congressman Steve Stockman.
In Congress, Steve sought impeachment of Eric Holder for his corruption of the Justice Department and his fast and furious gunrunning 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?

It's pure pop perfection, Keith.
Yes, I know.
Well, why go into a long commentary on it when just a couple of words can say gravity is a soul of wit.
Well, we do love it, that's for sure.
Well, anyway.
It's either S-O-L-E or S-O-U-L.
If we had any more fun, we'd have to do it for free.
I got news for you.
That's what we're doing.
That's a joke in there, folks.
Anyway, well, okay, so moving on from the interview that was tonight, and we'll follow you up on any new developments there.
PPC back in the news as well, Keith, as we so often are.
A couple of times recently.
In fact, one I haven't even told you about, one that's so new, I just found out about it.
But we had an interview with just a few days ago, a week or two weeks ago, this particular one was with a magazine in Europe that actually appears in newsstands and in bookstores.
And it's going to be out.
Does it have a name?
Well, it does.
And once it's published, we'll let that be known or once it's actually out because, you know, you never want to jinx these things before they're actually there.
That's why I never did announce any of those CNN appearances before I was actually on the TV because, you know, you give your enemies a chance to take you down a peg.
But in any event, no, it is going to come out next, well, I say next month.
That's just in a few days from now.
It's going to be early in December.
You read it.
We put up the Q ⁇ A, just the raw Q ⁇ A, the unedited Q ⁇ A on the website just, what, midweek, right?
I think it was the day before Thanksgiving.
Keith, you are the intellectual heft here at the show.
I'm just the pretty face.
So what did you make of it?
Well, it sounded like they were not as adversarial as some of the magazines and newspapers that have interviewed you in the past.
And it sounds like you had an opportunity to get a fair presentation or to give a fair presentation of how we approach problems.
This was a European interrogator, and they wanted to know about America and how you saw the culture wars that are unfolding day by day here in America.
And they're very, you know, intelligent questions, and you gave very intelligent answers.
The one exchange.
Well, thank you for saying that, Keith, coming from you, that it's high praise indeed.
And the one exchange that I would like to highlight, I guess, is a dual question about the media in the United States and the ability of conservatives to combat it.
And I'll just read you the dry text of my answers.
I shared with this interviewer, American mainstream media apes and mimics a handful of media giants, the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, etc.
In this way, the same line is repeated in the so-called American media from top to bottom.
Each journalist is his own censor.
Dissent does not exist.
It is not tolerated.
Opinions are the same.
The same stories are put center stage and repeated over and over again.
The same stories are excluded and not reported.
All reporting and commentary are the same.
The American media speaks with a single voice.
So-called conservatives are psychologically unable to fight the left totalitarianism, as the interviewer called it.
Conservatives pose no threat to the dominance of the left.
From there, I shared the, of course, incredible quote, the timeless quote from R.L. Davney, the great Confederate theologian, Stonewall Jackson's theologian.
What he said was true in his day is twice as true now.
You can read the entire thing at thepolitical Cesspool.org.
It was published on November 24th.
Well, we have a generation of cowards, quite frankly, that are running the media.
They're either cowards or they are total lunatics.
And their watch phrase, one of their favorite watch phrases is celebrate diversity.
That's laughable.
If they truly celebrated diversity, they would be nurturing people like us like a hothouse flower because the best and the really only diversity that is worthy of top drawer treatment and praise is diversity of thought, much more so than diversity of race or diversity of gender or everything else that the left tries to put above.
They are actually the arch enemies of true diversity, diversity of thought, diversity of thinking.
They want you to be a mindless robot and just do what they say.
And when we become mindless robots, then they will think that nirvana has been achieved.
But this is, Orwell told us this was hell.
It was not Nirvana.
And we've got to fight on for our freedoms, for our First and Second Amendment rights, and all of the rights that we get in the Constitution.
But the Constitution is not talismanic.
You don't just say, aha, I can see now I can make this argument from the Constitution and my opposition will melt away.
No, these are people that did not have a place at the table when the Constitution was being written.
That's why they don't respect any of the founding fathers.
That's why in cities in which white Gentiles have been driven out, like most major American cities, you're going to see all of the cultural heroes and icons like General Farrell, like Robert E. Lee, like Thomas Jefferson, like George Washington, having their statues torn down by the Jacobins.
This is what the Jacobins did in the French Revolution.
It's what the Bolsheviks did in the Bolshevik Revolution.
And shortly after they take down the statues, they start coming after the people that held those statues in reverence.
So hold on to your hat.
I hope and pray, and I would ask all of you to hope and pray that Trump prevails.
Because if he doesn't, it's Adios America.
But if it is Audios America, we're still here, and we have to come up with counter strategies of how to preserve our people and to preserve our independence of thought, mind, and speech.
Look, we'll do what we can on the bigger picture.
What we can do, what we can certainly have an impact on is the impact we have on one another.
And come what may, in good times and in lean times, or as the Bible says in the fat years and the lean years, if we are together, that's enough to get by on.
And let me tell you something, ladies and gentlemen.
The fact, listen, when you first get in, you think you'll change the world based upon your individual actions.
And every now and then that turns out to be true.
I think that the impact of the political cesspool has been far more widespread than most people would ever realize.
Some of the things we've done, you look back on our history, it's just, it's phenomenal and all because of the grace of God.
I mean, we don't exist.
Let me say this.
Without the people, but I just wanted to say, to me, my goal, my purpose, my mission is to serve as the shepherd of the flock that God gave me.
This audience, as long as we're together, we're going to try to give you as much hope and encouragement as we can.
We'll stick together and we'll be okay as long as we're together, but we cannot break those bonds of fellowship.
We have got to stick together and close ranks, Keith.
Well, we need to pray to God to lead us on the paths of righteousness and to lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
But it's a cop-out to say, well, everything's in the Lord's hands.
It's the Lord's world.
God's on the side of the big battalions.
I mean, that's a joke.
You know, it's sort of a tongue-in-cheek story.
That was Napoleon who said that.
But on the other hand, there's truth in it, too.
You have to fight.
I mean, you can't say that.
Well, the thing is, God brought us here into being so that we could fight on behalf of him.
We don't know.
That's how he separates the sheep from the goats.
Yes, we don't do it.
In fact, Sam Bushman was talking about this earlier.
You know, just set in your prayer closet.
I mean, it is important to pray and to have fellowship with the Lord.
But look, we don't deserve to be saved if we're not willing to stand up and fight for ourselves.
I mean, no.
Well, fight for ourselves and fight for God's sovereign rule and the obedience to God's law.
Stay tuned, everybody.
This is just a mere sampling of what you can expect for the rest of the calendar year as we head into December and Christmas and all the way into New Year's.
Great show last week from South Carolina.
Great guest tonight, Sarah Di.
Schooner Creek Farm.
We'll be back to wrap up the show with Jack Ryan next, but we've got a delightful December coming your way.

Online Black Friday sales hit a new high as the pandemic kept many away from physical stores on the day after Thanksgiving.
According to Adobe Analytics, shoppers spent about $9 billion online on Black Friday, breaking the previous record of $7.4 billion set in 2019.
Retailers have reported that foot traffic on the day known as the busiest shopping day of the year was down by more than half on Friday.
Adobe estimates another $10 to $12 billion could be spent on Cyber Monday.

Iran has vowed retaliation over the killing of one of its top nuclear scientists.
In a statement, President Hassan Rouhani promised an aggressive response to Friday's assassination.
Representative John Garimendi says the U.S. needs to be prepared for Iran's response.
The California Democrat tells Fox News Iran may try to retaliate diplomatically.
Right now, obviously, we are and we must be prepared for some sort of retaliation.
What it will be, I guess it will, my guess is it will be something that will be pinpointed.
It might very well be in the diplomatic area, not in the military area.
And so we need to be prepared on all of these.
Iran has blamed Israel for the killing with backing from the United States.
The recount in Wisconsin's most populous county, requested by President Trump's campaign, wrapped up on Friday with a small gain for former Vice President Joe Biden.
After the recount in Milwaukee County, Biden had a net gain of 132 votes.

Welcome back.
To get on the show, call us on James' Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Don't get
any more wholesome than that, ladies and gentlemen.
That's the peanuts theme.
Who could forget the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Christmas specials as we would grow up?
And, you know, they had a lot of good Charlie Brown movies, too.
Brace for your life.
Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown went to Europe in one of them.
And Snoopy, you know, Snoopy was always getting into trouble, but I'll tell you, that's wholesome stuff.
It's that time of year, is it not?
I'll tell you what I like too, though.
I like those Burrow Lives things like Frosty the Snow.
What do they call it?
The, you know, with the Frosty the Snowman and the abominable snowman and things like that.
Oh, yeah, like the stop action stuff.
You know, all that stuff.
Yeah, well, anyway, hey, Jack Ryan is bringing us the peanuts theme tonight.
And, well, I tell you, Jack, it's making me feel good.
How are you doing tonight, brother?
I'm alive.
I survived probably the worst political year of my life.
I was seven years old in the year of 1968.
Presidential election years really bring out the worst of our country.
So, yeah, I'm not sure.
It's the same people.
You know that, don't you?
Jack, this is Keith.
It is the same people, the cultural Marxist new left.
I was fighting these people every day when I was seven years old, riding a campus bus with the University of Chicago students.
My family were, we were mixed, but they liked sort of the Democrats of the 50s and 60s, Harry Truman, Adelaide Stevenson, John F. Kennedy.
But these 68 anti-war leftists, the Bill Ayers, the Abby Hoffman, we really disliked those people.
And I was just fighting with these people.
I was seven years old, but they destroyed our cities.
And Detroit, Michigan, Newark, New Jersey.
These used to be nice places.
My mom grew up in Detroit in the 68, 67.
They had the black riots.
There were stupid stuff, like just terrible things.
It was with a purpose, though, Jack.
You know, that those people that your parents admired, you know, those old left liberals like Hubert Humphrey, like Adelaide Stevenson, the days of rage in Chicago in 1968 was specifically aimed not at the Republicans, but at that old left part of the Democratic Party.
And they wanted to get them out.
They wanted to get, and they did.
Well, but Mayor Daly Sr., I mean, he just said this isn't happening in my city, and he ordered the police to shoot the kill riders.
It was the black riders, and they put up a good resistance.
They did not allow these communist Marxist people to burn and loot and stuff.
They did fight them, but we did not put up a very good fight in this year.
Look, they won.
Yeah, they won.
The next presidential election came by.
They got a new left candidate, George McGovern, and he lost the presidential race by an unprecedented at that time, 49 states to one.
All right, hold on.
49 out of the campaign.
Well, at least it wasn't a total blowout.
All right, hang on, Keith.
We got to pump the brakes here.
Just a second here.
Now, look, we'd certainly like to close each show with Jack with a little more upbeat.
You know, yeah, a little more humor.
You're bringing us down, I got to tell you.
Why should you be charting our enemies' progress through generations?
But that's not what we're doing right now.
We could do that, but we don't have to do that.
And so let's just talk about, let's talk about peanuts.
Let's talk about, you know, Frankie Valley has a good song, a little-known hit named Peanuts.
We've never played it before.
You probably don't even know it, but it's as good as any of the hits he had.
Anyway, but it has nothing to do with the Peanuts theme that we played tonight.
Anyway, Jack, so give us something uplifting.
So, yes, you're up in Chicago.
We're in that transition period between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
That transition lasted about two minutes in our house.
The turkey was still being shut down.
He said, give us something uplifting.
What he's telling you to do is lie.
No, Hell no, there's a lot to be excited about.
There's a lot to be encouraged about.
Last week's show, tonight with Sarah Dye, but look, and the hits will keep on coming, I tell you.
But I still had turkey in my mouth as we were transitioning from Thanksgiving to Christmas, and it's already happening.
So Peanuts is a good one because they've got the Thanksgiving and the Christmas movies.
Absolutely.
Let's talk a little bit more about Peanuts and Charles Schultz.
It was the penis cartoons and stuff, they were, it came there in the late 60s, and it's about children.
They're only children in the whole show.
Adults are just are given a voice or like a mom and stuff.
And so it's a children's group.
And the head guy, he's a regular guy, a regular American guy, Charlie Brown.
He's nice guys, but all kinds of people torment him, like this, this uppity, pushy woman, Lucy, torments him.
She tries to hold a football to him so he can kick a vehicle, and she pretends she's his friend, but she always pulls the football away from him just to see the regular guy gets humiliated.
They got some kind of like almost a feminist girl, Pat Peppermint Patty, that flirts with Charlie.
But Charlie is a regular guy.
I thought she was a legendary.
He's a regular guy like us.
Yeah, he's a regular guy like us.
He's trying to do his best.
And I love the music.
I forgot the name of the composer that did that jazz theme, but it's quite good.
Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving is okay.
It's pretty good.
But I think the best one is the Great Pumpkin.
And then Linus, he talks about American history and he gives the story on that.
So I think what we really have to be kind of doing right now is pulling away.
We have to be going sort of Amish that we're not, we don't have cable TV.
I cut the cable cord.
I got an antenna TV, which you get free TV and some things on there.
But we're really not going to be getting a lot of good TV and movie coming out of these four dominated media companies.
And there's War Against Thanksgiving, War Against Christmas.
And so we shouldn't get all bent out of shape.
I'm like, oh my God, we're so shocked that Harvey Weinstein and these people are making these anti-Christian movies and Christmas.
Well, like, duh.
You know, did you think that was going to happen the first 10 years of the Soviet Bolshevik take over Russia, the Ukraine?
We're living in an occupied country.
We don't have our media.
So we got a soldier on.
We have to find good music, good movies, circulate our own people.
We just had this election that got stolen from us, fixed on this, but that's just what happened.
Well, let me tell you to do this, Jack.
If you are now going antenna, public domain TV, no cable, no dish, none of that, let me recommend to you the grit channel that has old Westerns basically from the late 40s into the mid-60s.
Those are great movies like The Hanging Tree, like Shane, like High Noon, like The Comancheros with John and some other one, and also there's heavy.
And I love that.
I love that channel.
It's cool.
What do you think about Audi Murphy movies?
You like Audi Murphy movies?
I love Audi Murphy movies.
I love Randolph Scott movies.
Really, John Wayne.
I put them in the same category.
I think that John Wayne is good, but he always plays the same guy.
Randolph Scott and Audi Murphy were just as good, in my opinion.
I like Audi Murphy.
He's a shorter guy.
He's a tough guy, but they've got real great male-female chemistry in these ones.
And it's a very, you know, sex is not allowed and stuff like that, but he's got really good-looking women that he somehow gets thrown off and they have to go together.
And the girls are after him.
I think the Audi Murphy movies are very, very good.
He knew he was the most highly decorated soldier on the American side in World War II.
Yeah, too bad he was fighting the wrong people.
Too bad he was going to be.
Yeah, I agree with that too.
Amen.
There was a megalomaniac.
Most of them, Patton included, believe that, you know, shortly after.
Right, yeah, there was a megalomaniac warmonger that came on, you know, that started World War II and also had a hand in starting World War I, but it wasn't Adolf Hitler.
It was Winston Churchill.
Why didn't we just have a bunch of trannies and gay lesbian guys in our in our military so the other side could have won?
Your wish has been grinding.
We gotta get dad to serious business.
Hang on, guys.
Down, boys.
All right, we got our good friend Rich, our resident.
Hang on a second.
I am on one.
I don't know why it's not picking up.
How about now?
Give me your mic.
Keith, mine's taking a time.
My mic was taking a siesta.
Hang on now.
I'm way too loud on Keith's.
Anyway, I don't know why my mic decided to take a time out, but Rich, Rich, our resident encyclopedia, our resident researcher, gave us the composer for the Charlie Brown peanuts theme, Vince Giraldi.
Vince Giraldi.
I should have known that.
I should have remembered that.
When did he do that?
Ask Rich to reply on that.
You'll have to have Richard.
I think that's about 1968.
68.
It was the 6768.
It's a good piece.
All right, we're going to take a quick break.
And when we come back, a little more Christmas music, one more song for tonight, but I hope we're only wetting your appetite for the selections that will be coming your way.
And we're cutting out the top of the intro for each segment to sort of make way for the music so we're not wasting too much talk time.
But listen, we love the music.
It makes you feel good.
We'll be back.
And we'll play one more tonight.
A lot more to come into the center.
Your call is being transferred to the listening ear.
Listening professionals dedicated to hearing you.
Hello, listening here.
Who am I listening to?
Um, Carrie, but I was calling my mom.
Yes, you were, but your mom was so busy she felt it was important for you to have someone who could completely focus on listening to you and you alone.
So she subscribed to our service.
Go ahead.
I'm listening.
Well, I'm not quite sure where to start.
Well, I can listen to school issues like science projects.
I can listen to boy problems, although that's an extra $3 per call because of the emotional drain on me.
How about we start with how you wish you had made cheerleader?
I didn't try out for cheerleader.
This isn't Mary.
Carrie.
I'm Carrie.
Oh, oh, sorry.
There is no substitute for a loving parent.
And when you really listen, love is what they'll hear.

I have a question.
Can a nation conceived in liberty carry its head high if it denies protection to the youngest and most vulnerable of its citizens?
Can a country founded on God-given rights continue to thrive without understanding that life is a precious gift from our Creator?
I believe that great nations and great civilizations spring from a people who have a moral compass.
I don't think a civilization can long endure that does not have respect for all human life, born and not yet dead.
I will be in earnest.
I will not equivocate and I will not excuse.
I will not retreat an inch and I will be heard.
One thing I promise you, I will always take a stand for life.

Melekaliki Makka is a thing to say on a bright, Hawaiian Christmas Day.
That's the island greeting that we send to you from the land where palm trees sway.
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright.
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night.
Melekilliki Maka is the wise way to say Merry Christmas to you.
Melekaliki Maca is the thing to say on a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day.

Mele Kaliki Maca is Hawaii's way to say Merry Christmas to you.
Well, that's a selection for all you Chevy Chase fans out there who could ever forget the vacation series of cinematic masterpieces, including the iconic Christmas vacation.
Now, so oftentimes when Jack comes on the show, he is with us to share with us his recommendations for film, music, books, etc.
But that's one from the Christmas Archives, Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation.
Randy Quaid stars in that and the dream sequence with the Melikaliki Maka, the old Ben Bing Crosby standards.
Crosby was a whole small turn to Frank Sinatra back.
Now, Rich said Ben Crosby was a constant.
Yeah, I just saw that movie, the Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation.
I really didn't like it.
I thought it was extremely insulting to middle American people.
It made our people look just stupid.
It looked made our people look like just dumb gom, really.
What happened in the end?
You just saw it.
It came out in the 80s.
Well, I saw that at a friend's place, but I think obviously the best Thanksgiving movie is Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with John Candy in the world.
Now, John Candy and Steve Martin, those were two, you know, again, classic comics.
I'm not going to say that they agreed with us or we with them, but they made good movies, did they not, Keith?
They did, and so did Chris Farley.
That was another generation.
You made a ripoff.
An automobile, a total just ripoff.
I saw that.
But Planes Trains and Automobiles, it takes regular people who are good people and puts them on adventures.
It's real places.
A guy that's working in New York, a place that I almost tried to get a job and stuff.
But he lived in a suburb of Chicago.
And then he had a regular salesman that he hooked up.
And then they had adventures that were realistic.
But I thought it was not a hateful movie.
And it's at the end.
It was about friendship.
And it was not Cultural Marxists.
Didn't hate Thanksgiving, didn't hate the family.
So I really like Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
And I didn't have to.
Hold on right there.
Hold on.
I have to issue a correction.
I have to issue a correction.
Pardon the interruption, Jack, but Rich did not say that Bing Crosby was a communist.
He said Burl Ives was a communist.
I got him mixed up, so that's my mistake.
All I know is Frank Sinatra hated Bing Crosby's guts.
And that when the Kennedys were told by J. Edgar Hoover to ditch Sinatra, Kennedy was supposed to be coming to Sinatra's house.
Instead, he flew over it in his helicopter and landed.
You know, I did this article on Frank Sinatra's The House I Live In some years ago.
It was this infomercial.
Yeah, Frank Sinatra sold out to Jewish Hollywood.
That's why he had a successful career.
Well, there you go.
Anyway, I mean, he's probably a better character.
Sure, he had talent, but he knew how to burnish that talent and get it out there in front.
Yeah, good movies.
On the Town is a great movie with Frank Sinatra.
And who's the other guy, the dancer that played?
The Joker is Wild is another one.
I had the song On the Way.
All the Way, Jesus.
But we should, I think, try to get our own.
And this is another thing that I like to encourage people.
One of the problems with our people is we're too law-abiding.
We're too straight.
And this election just got stolen.
You can't have an honest election when you have unlimited mail-in balloting because people can be voting in from other states.
You've got dead people, but there's things like that.
So as these great movies are taken over by horrible anti-Southern, anti-white media companies, I would say that it's okay to try to get a free copy of a good Walt Disney movie from the 40s or on the town.
You don't have to give money.
It's like when Michael Jackson bought the rights to the Beatles music.
You don't have to always be paying some things.
So we should start living a little bit rebellious type ways and trying to preserve good culture and not be so bent on a shape about everything legal because we're not going to be getting good.
Popular music is terrible.
TVs are terrible.
Movies are terrible.
So let's hold on to what we have and make it.
Yeah.
Well, so often is the case, Jack.
I mean, there are things in popular culture that we can find that we can draw inspiration from.
Now, you had sent me a clip earlier, and I couldn't bring it up, but I found another clip from the same film that is perhaps the most encouraging thing that has come out of Hollywood in the last 50 years.
And so we go to this clip from The Lord of the Rings, and this is Aragorn's speech at the Black Gate.
This is when these Viking stock-looking people have the entire world, all of the evil in the world coming down on them.
And I know this is fiction.
This is Tolkien.
Well, perhaps the truth is stranger than fiction.
This is almost a near parallel to the situation we find ourselves in in this day and age, in the era of BLM and anti-fun and all of this.
But listen to this character, Aragorn, in this moment and in this movie and apply it if you can.
Here we are.
The same fear that would take the heart of me.
A day may come when the courage of men fails.
When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day.
An hour of woes and shattered shields when the age of men comes crashing down.
But it is not this day.
Well, that's it, ladies and gentlemen.
If we could only have a moment like that to where we could come together and how he ended that, I mean, Tolkien, what Tolkien, a great man of the West himself, a Christian, a European, to end that scene where the character encourages his troops, I bid you stand, men of the West.
Well, let me humbly make a suggestion, James.
Rather than looking for pearls in the dung heap of modern Hollywood, you could be getting much more, finding many more pearls looking at the Hollywood before 1965.
I will tell you in 1965 or 1945 or in the silent movies, there is not a scene any better than that one.
But Jack, to you.
Jack's very good.
Could I just say, yeah, absolutely.
I think Tolkien should be sacred to us, the books and the movie, which I did a faithful job.
But I got to warn our people that this enemy has come in and they try to take over conservatives, neoconservatives.
So they're going to go back.
And this propaganda have all these patriotic wars to say that Syria is the side of the Russians, that they're all like Hitler.
They're gassing little children and they're going to be doing this stuff against nationalists in Poland and Hungary like we bombed our kinsmen, the Serbs.
So, I mean, you got to be real careful when these people that control the media and they control, they're stepping back into conservative politics.
They're going to be waving the flag, support the troops, and attacking wars that have no purpose for our people and the like.
So you can't fall for this fake patriotism and saying we've got to bomb the Poles or the Hungarians or the Serbs because they don't like trans marriage and they're not accepting unlimited immigration, which supposedly made America great.
So you've got to be careful of this fake patriotism in these wars.
These neoconservatives, warmongers, they're really pushing to come back.
And everything I hear from the Biden people is that they want back control of the military.
And so, you know, so be careful about that.
I've noticed something.
Yeah, Jack, I've noticed something.
Whenever a certain group of people are out of control of a nation, that nation tends to be very wholesome if it's a European nation and good.
Like czarist Russia.
But when these people take over, as they did after the Bolshevik Revolution until the end of the Soviet period, then they were evil.
Now they're out from under that domination and they're becoming good again.
Exactly like in America.
Now we seem to be under their control and we are the new evil in the eyes of many people.
Unfortunately, a lot of things that I like, like Russia today, they're starting to neoconserve Zionist propaganda on certain things.
So, I mean, we don't control our monetary system.
We don't control our media.
Other countries, Russia, I thought, was pretty good, but the other countries, if you like, our best ones are Poland, Hungary, Slovakia.
Those are better on that.
But it's certainly not the United States of America.
And we kill your cable.
Cut it.
We're not seeing some stuff.
If your son wants to be in the military, this is a job he thinks it's better than working at Walmart.
But understand, you're a slave for other people that are not our people.
So, you know, that's what.
Jack, happy belated Thanksgiving to you, brother.
We look forward to working with you as we, yes, indeed, as we inch ever so closely or race ever more so closely to Christmas.
We look forward to having you with us the last half hour of every show.
This is your customary.
That's what you can count on as Jack closes each show in December.
And indeed, thank you for saying that, too.
For Keith Alexander, I'm James Edwards for our fantastic guest tonight, Sarah Dai.
If you like tonight's show, we've got another one coming at you next week, just like it.
Stay tuned.
