You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, known 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.
Ladies and gentlemen, what a magnificent night from the Southern Cultural Center.
A group of people who fight as our Southern Christian protectors of our culture, our heritage, our land, and our people.
If that sounds like something you want to know more about, or perhaps even join in on, I couldn't encourage you more to do so at SouthernCulturalCenter.com.
We kicked off the show tonight in the first hour with Mike Wharton.
We kicked off the second hour with Ed Boardwine.
These are the principals of this organization.
You have heard from other folks tonight who have spoken at this event this weekend.
Sam Dixon, Jared Taylor, Cliff McGar, Brad Griffin.
And we still have more to come this hour.
Mike Gaddy coming up here in a few minutes.
And still more to come from Brad Griffin.
But let's talk to both.
Now, as we did in the first hour when we paired both Sam and Jared together, we're going to pair Mike Wharton and Ed Boardwine together, again, the principal figures here for the Southern Cultural Center.
And I'm going to seed my mic now to Brother Wharton, who is going to talk a little bit about some folks here who are not here tonight as we do this live broadcast, but whose names should certainly be mentioned.
And then we're going to let both Mike and Ed engage in conversation as we did with Sam and Jared.
And we'll see where they go with that.
And I can't wait.
Thank you.
Excuse me.
Thank you, James.
Yeah, we were.
We were talking about Bill and Ruth Ann Holly.
And they are listening to the show.
Yeah.
Billy, Billy and Ruth Ann.
They had sent us some correspondence and we're talking and I told Ruth Ann that there were several people ask her about our book and her program last year that she did on Follow the Cotton.
And such a talented lady, makes the best blackberry cobbler in Tennessee.
Maybe Alabama, too.
She was good enough and she shared it.
We probably eat up Bill's supper that night.
We were having supper.
What did it?
That's right.
And it was good, too.
That's for sure.
But they were certainly missed today.
Sister Pat was here, Ed.
What about that?
Yeah, it was good to see Pat Gywin here.
We always love her, a hardworking woman, dedicated to the South and dedicated to our white people.
Just fantastic.
She's a, boy, she's a trooper, I'll tell you.
It was good to see her, really good to see her.
We had others we missed, and we should talk about them a little bit.
But you know, today, Mike, we had 86 people, and man, that's fantastic for this conference.
You're right.
And for the two-day total, we probably had close to 200 people combined for the two days.
A lot of people didn't come one day and maybe not for both days, but it was a great success and covered a lot of ground.
I'll tell you, Alabama and central Alabama is pretty fertile ground.
We're farming fertile ground, and we're fortunate a lot of people in a lot of areas Don't have that fertile ground to work, but they're out there hammering and getting it done all over Dixie.
We've got members of the Express.
I think in every state.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Every state.
And we're expanding on that.
And, in fact, Bristol, Billy Joe's hometown there.
A lot of members right there.
And Bill stands on the ready if we need him.
And, you know, when you work in a grassroots organization like this right here, my granddaddy Drew Ward, Daddy Drew would say, you take the fun out of it, boy, you don't have much left.
And Mike Getty understands about that boy talk.
He was a firm believer in that.
And he was a firm believer in that.
And that's something that we do at the center.
We try to have some fun with it.
And you had asked, you and Cliff were talking about what we're going to do with these new members.
I'll tell you what we're going to do.
We're going to put them to work.
That's right.
That's right.
Talk about that.
We're a volunteer organization, volunteer.
We don't have any employees, man.
Everybody's up there just chugging along, man, making sure that we get it done.
You know what was interesting today, or last Tuesday, Mike, was we got seven new members in this two days.
And if you'll recall, if you'll recall, yeah, seven new members.
And if you'll recall, we had a little gift for anybody that came here the first time.
First time in our building, first time at Southern Culture Center, and it was 11 people.
11 out of the 86 was first time here.
Now that's getting them going.
That's getting them going.
Hey, and also.
All plans to both of you today.
Yeah, baby.
Yeah.
That's awful kind, James.
I tell you, the people that come here, one thing that we stress also, we might ask you to put you to work, but you're going to become a part of a larger family.
And anybody that's what this society's up against, if you love your race, you love your people, you want to be a part of it.
And it's going to be more and more important to be part of a family, a larger family.
It sure is.
If you would talk a little bit about the things that we do from our classes, like garden classes, seed saving.
Well, yeah, you know, we're looking at the fact that probably, in our opinion, the American empire is not going to last forever.
Not going to last forever.
It's spiraling down.
Trump may help it out or may slow it down, but I really think that long term is gone.
So we've got to be ready for that.
So everything we're focused here is how do we help our people make sure they're ready?
Now, we're giving them the truth now on how bad it is, but you're exactly right.
We need to give them the tools they need to survive.
So that's why we do a lot of survival training classes.
We do a lot of beginner half-gun handgun training for men and women.
That works good.
We're always talking about garden and how to can and get the food.
Set up a seed bank to help yourself.
But we're also focused on getting your family, total family together.
And that's not just your family, your regular family.
We're talking about a group around you that you can work with, talk with, communicate with when things get bad, when it gets really, really bad.
Support.
Yeah, support.
That's right.
Absolutely.
This coming next Saturday night, we'll have some of the finest bluegrass, country western, and gospel singing.
Oh, yeah.
Better believe it.
You better believe it.
Brother Cliff McGarr will be here singing.
You talk about us.
Brother Cliff.
Nobody does a better job on that power in the blood.
Yeah.
Is he down from Nashville or what?
Yeah.
We need to sing tonight before it's over.
Yeah, we may have to get him to do it.
Oh, we'll have to get him in here with us then.
Hey, the buddy is something that we understand at the center.
The blood of the Lamb, the blood of our people, blood and soil.
Yeah, blood and soil.
Hey, our folks.
Kith and Ken.
Kith and Ken.
Tomorrow morning.
Hey, I'm going to study right here in the morning with Bobby Johnson, the head of the Southeast Southern Cultural Center, headquarters down there.
Just ask you very quick, Brother Mike, the convergence and the way we blend in our spiritual heritage and our cultural heritage and our racial heritage.
That is not at odds with one another.
Hey, I'm going to tell you, that's as natural as anything to our people.
It should come natural to you.
And the love for one another, all that is spiritual.
All of that is biblical.
The love for one another, love for your own folks.
You need to know who you folks are for one thing.
Some of our people, you take our kids now, from the time they start the school, they're in a constant state of apology from the four-year-old to their 12, and you've lost them by then.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
We had a lot of kids here today, anywhere from 1 to 12 years old.
Some of the most well-behaved kids that you've ever been around.
Brother Henry.
Exactly.
Brother Henry, we had other children here.
They were just as mannerly and just like they were young men sitting there listening, absolutely, and really, really enjoying what they were doing.
Jordan and Brad's children, boys, one year old.
They behave like grown people.
Yeah.
I like to say.
Mighty fine, yeah.
You know, you know, that tells you that it means it's already wired in you.
God puts it in you already that you're a southerner and you're supposed to be doing southern things.
And I want to thank you both for letting my son draw the raffle today.
He enjoyed that and he loves that.
And to him be up on stage, I took video of that.
I was a proud dad.
Well, he did a fine job out there.
He did.
You know, in the book of Colossians and several other places, the Lord tells us, don't grow weary of doing good.
And so.
Hey, thank you, James.
Hey, thank you both.
All right, thank you.
How about Ed Boardwine and Mike Wharton?
SouthernCultural Center.com.
You've heard from the world.
You're the man, James.
You're the man.
Shaking their hands.
Love you guys.
We'll be right back with Mike Gaddy.
It is common for politicians, major media outlets, and nonprofits to hype white on black murders aggressively, or even claim that blacks are living in fear of white people.
Lynch for simply being black.
Hard to believe, but that's what was done.
And some people still want to do that.
This is why National Conservative launched the Interracial Homicide Tracking Project.
We have now documented well over 2,000 confirmed interracial homicides since January 2023 and created the most comprehensive overview of these killings anyone has ever made.
We plug the gaping holes in data left by other homicide trackers and government crime stats.
Rather than engaging in hyperbole and vitriolic rhetoric like everyone else, we are simply creating a massive sample size of empirical evidence so people can form rational and informed opinions about a sensitive and politically charged issue.

N-A-T-C-O-N.l-I-F-E.
You know where the solution can be found, Mr. President?
In churches, in wedding chapels, in maternity wards across the country and around the world.
More babies will mean forward-looking adults, the sort we need to tackle long-term, large-scale problems.
American babies in particular are likely going to be wealthier, better educated, and more conservation-minded than children raised in still industrializing countries.
As economist Tyler Cowan recently wrote, quote, by having more children, you're making your nation more populous, thus boosting its capacity to solve climate change.
The planet does not need for us to think globally and act locally so much as it needs us to think family and act personally.
The solution to so many of our problems at all times and in all places is to fall in love, get married, and have some kids.
It is a blessing and a gift to still love doing this after 20 years.
To still, I can't get enough of it.
I mean, shows like this tonight, especially, you want to keep going all night long.
You want to keep going into Sunday morning and maybe even Monday morning with guys like this.
This is what it's about.
This is who we fight for.
This is who we fight with.
This is our people.
And when you're surrounded by it, it just gives you so much more energy and it's incredible.
And another guy who was a part of this weekend, who is not here with us right now, but was a part of it yesterday and who has been a part of this program for the last 20 years in some shape, form, or fashion, is Mike Gaddy.
But before we hear from Mike Gaddy, let's hear about Mike Gaddy.
Play it, guys.
I've met a lot of great people throughout TPC's 20-year run, and one of the very first was Michael Gaddy.
He was down on the border with the Minutemen Project back in those days, calling into the studio from a payphone with live reports.
He was fighting to preserve our nation then, and he still is.
Let me ask you something.
Does true history matter to you?
Would you like to know authentic history or what is taught in government schools and universities?
The choice is yours.
Michael Gaddy has on display at his Substack a wealth of information from original source documents on both the founding era of our country and the South's Second War for Independence.
Check him out at Michael Gaddy.

Going back to the very founding of this broadcast, Mike Gaddy has been part of the DNA and part of the fabric, and he was here with us this weekend.
It was so good, Mike, to see you yesterday.
I know you had a little bit of an emergency today that carried you away.
Thank God all is well.
And we're back and we have you tonight and we're glad to have you at all.
How are you, brother?
Hey, James, I tell you what, brother, this is just, you know, this weekend meant so much to me.
I hated to have to leave this morning when I did.
I really did because I was looking so forward to having you on my RBN program.
And then let's transitioning to this one.
But I tell you what, this is just a remarkable feeling.
And people who do not understand our culture will never understand this.
But meeting with Mike and Ed, a gentleman that I had never met before, it was like walking back into a family reunion.
It was like I have known these men all my life because we share a common belief and we share a common factor, which includes you, my friend.
We've been around for a long time together.
And it was just so special, you know, and the people who were there, just to be able to communicate with them, to talk with them, and to, you know, James, I got to tell you something very unusual.
Yesterday evening, I went out after the conference.
I went out to, you know, to have dinner.
And I went to this restaurant and I had dinner.
And I, toward the end of my meal, I called the waitress over and I said, ma'am, could you bring me my check?
And she said, well, I'm, sir, your meal was already paid for by some people and they paid everything.
And I said, what?
And she said, yes, there were some people here.
There was a couple here who paid for your meal.
And I said, I don't know anybody really here.
And she said, evidently you do because they paid for your meal.
Now, you know, where else in America are you ever going to find that, James?
Nowhere.
Just right here amongst friends and amongst family.
And not even all families, but this family, you'll find it.
And, you know, go ahead, Mike.
Go ahead, buddy.
No, I'm not going to say that.
I was going to say, seeing you here yesterday and just brought back all of that.
And then, as I said earlier in the program tonight, and I know you've been listening for a little bit in advance of your appearance.
And we had talked yesterday about doing your show and just bleeding into this show and you co-hosting the entire thing tonight with me.
And that would have been so much fun.
And we got into my son and I woke up yesterday at 4.30 in the morning.
We left Memphis at 6 and we were a little tuckered out.
And I thought we'd have all day today, but that's not the way the Lord saw it.
But no, listen, you see people, you lay eyes on them for the first time.
You and I have known each other for 20 years.
It was like that 20 years ago.
I was actually qualifying how long we've known each other in the talk that I gave yesterday.
I had to explain to people what a payphone was in case anybody didn't know.
Or anybody didn't remember how you could call the porter 20 years ago with a quarter and you called the studio and you got on the air.
That's how long we've known each other.
But at the same time, brother, you meet someone here maybe yesterday for the first time and you feel like you've known them that much, that long as well.
And that is something that is spiritual.
It goes to the very core of our being.
Exactly, brother.
And we're not going to find that in any other group of people in this country.
You are not going to walk into a group of people you have never met before and felt like you're a member of a family than is the southern culture.
I'll say this very quickly.
I'm going to bring actually unexpectedly and Mike Wharton back on right now.
Mike, you called me back in the springtime and we were talking about this and you said, could you suggest anybody that we haven't had before that we might could have this year when we do the conference in August?
And I think the first, I know, the first name that came to my mind was Mike Gaddy.
It was Mike Gaddy.
And you don't know, we were so pleased, James, to talk about it.
But what we were really pleased is when he accepted our invitation.
And since then, we've been on his program.
And it was the first time we had met here yesterday.
But I'll tell you, it felt like an old friend when he walked in the door.
What is it about that, Mike?
We got Mike and Mike right now, but Mike Wharton, what is it about that, about meeting someone you've never met before and it just being something there?
That is something, I don't know if it's uniquely southern.
I mean, maybe other people could feel that too.
I don't know.
But there's something about it that's special.
I think it is uniquely southern.
And we miss made that connection just right off the bat.
And after we shared an hour with him on his show, it felt like that we had known each other for years and years.
And I'll tell you, they'll feel that way.
I'll tell you this, Mike and Mike.
RBN is a stand-up network.
We did a few months there, and then we went over to Liberty News.
And they're both great networks, but RBN got great memories there.
And they're platforming Mike Gaddy, so that should tell you everything you need to know about them.
But I really was encouraged to hear about this now, I believe, monthly collaboration that will be had between Mike and Mike at RBN.
And the SCC.
Yeah, that's going to be called the Southern Cultural Center Hour.
Isn't that right, Mike?
Well, it's going to be called the Cultural Center Sunday.
Cultural Center Sunday.
All right.
I love it.
Whatever you call it, it's the same thing.
And I think we know the gist of it.
Explain it to us, Mike Gaddy.
Well, what it's going to be is, you know, I just, you know, it was really tough for me to leave today.
I got to tell you.
And, you know, when we stood outside and Michael Horton had a prayer, you know, and I didn't know exactly what was going on at that time.
But that is southern family.
That is exactly what it's all about.
And so the thing that was, you know, and last night when I went back to the motel room and I was thinking and suddenly, you know, I had this thought that came into my mind and I know where it came from.
It was divine inspiration.
But I said, I need to do a monthly show with Mike and Ed.
And, you know, how can we do that?
And then I ran it by them this morning.
And they were both very much on board with doing this.
And I said, we need to bring to the people who care.
And there's people out there who really care.
We all know that.
And we need to bring to those people, we need to bring to them at least on a monthly basis what's going on with the Southern Cultural Center.
And we need to do that.
We need to talk about it.
And it doesn't, I think my thought was, how can we do this other than just once a year, you know, at least from my perspective?
And I said, well, the way that I can do that is to have these two gentlemen on with me at least once a month.
And that is what I want to do.
I want to hear the progression.
I've gotten emails from our first conversation and people who want to know more about it.
But, you know, the wonderful thing about my experience there this weekend is the wonderful people who came up to me, who talked to me after my presentation, who had so many questions and who were really, you know, walking up, shaking hands.
Thank you for what you said.
Thank you.
You told me things I've never heard before.
And that is, you know, I think is what is so unique and what I love so much about it.
And the one thing I can tell you now, that regardless of what people want to say, you know, James, you and I have been, you know, brothers in Christ for a long time.
And now I have two more brothers that I know of, and it's Mike and Ed.
Here, here.
Hey, bless you.
The feeling's mutual, brother Mike.
And that is part of that feeling when you get when you come to the center.
And we tell you to come get some of it.
Like Stonewall Jackson told General Hill that General Hill told General Jackson, I need to get me some of that in regard to religion.
So, yeah, you'll certainly get that feeling here.
And it was really an honor to have you today.
Well, and Mike's music.
Go ahead, Mike, as the music begins to play.
Well, what I wanted to say very quickly was, Mike, you know, I need, that is the reason for our program is I needed at least a monthly dose of him.
Hey, there it is.
And I'll tell you this, RBN is a class network, and Mike Gaddy is a class individual.
And so is Mike Wharton.
And we'll be right back with supplies live.
Stay tuned, everybody.
Thank you, Mike Gaddy.

California Governor Gavin Newsom signing a package of bills to crack down on retail theft, including shoplifters, highway patrol captain Christian Oliver.
It's not just shoplifting.
It's a sophisticated and coordinated effort by criminal enterprises.
Retail crimes have had a detrimental impact on businesses, consumers, and the safety of our communities.
However, that package of laws, very controversial, lawmakers hope it will convince voters to reject a ballot measure that would have made shoplifting in California a felony again for repeat offenders.
He was pretty much a one-hit wonder, but that hit was something else.

Protest by medical workers in India.
That follows the assault and murder of a young doctor in training.
The protests, which have generally been peaceful, began when police discovered the bloodied body of a 31-year-old trainee doctor in RG Carr Medical College and Hospital in eastern Kolkata City.
A police volunteer working at the hospital has been detained in connection with a crime.
Dr. Hansika Anuragi, a doctor participating in the protest, told the AP that women in India are wrong daily.
There is no reason for us to live in this country.
Predators can do anything they want to women in this country.

Ladies and gentlemen, nights like tonight, they go by far too quickly.
So much talent assembled in the room.
It really is an embarrassment of riches for a talk radio host to have all of the folks we've had on tonight beginning, the list is beginning to get long.
But we just heard from Mike Gaddy.
Let's hear about Mike Gaddy one more time.
Let's play this ad for his work.
I've met a lot of great people throughout TPC's 20-year run, and one of the very first was Michael Gaddy.
He was down on the border with the Minutemen Project back in those days, calling into the studio from a payphone with live reports.

Brad Griffin back with us this segment and for the remainder of the program.
The company we've kept this weekend, Brad, what can you say about it from start to finish?
Those who have been on the program tonight and those who were here assembled who were not, but all of them equals in so many ways.
Excellent and so inspiring.
We need to get even more people here.
We need to build on another wing for an even bigger conference.
Well, I'll tell you this, Mike and Ed.
If any more people come next year, you've got to tear down a wall.
I absolutely do.
New building on the new annex to the Southern Cultural Center.
It was standing room only today.
Oh, yeah, yes.
In fact, I was just back there.
We were carrying on, having a good time, like, you know, talking about conferences gone by.
You go all the way back to the council days with your in-laws, Gordon and DeBaum.
No, I was mainly like revisiting the old days of times here when we went down and camped by the riverfront and went like hiking down the river and stuff.
And that's just old times, old friends.
You know, old friends and old faces from battles past, we all share scars.
But as Mike Gaddy was talking about in the last segment, you can meet some of these folks for the first time and they've always been there.
And that there is something transcendent, that there's something that transcends time and space about that.
And it's very real.
It's not cliche.
It's real, and you can feel it.
Oh, definitely.
I mean, I met new people this weekend, and we were just, you know, talking right above you is a photo of William Lounge Jancey.
And I noticed Cliff had referenced him in a speech, so we're going to catch up and I'll talk about that later, I'm sure.
I saw you always.
Personal hero of mine.
He has a, you know, his hands.
He's the Alabamian.
Now, see, listen, let me say this, Brad, very quickly.
One, two, three, four.
There's five portraits here.
Now, the first four you may know: President Davis, General Lee, General Jackson, General Forrest.
Who we got down there?
Who did I miss?
Oh, Patrick Henry.
Oh, I didn't go that far.
He's too close to the door.
I missed him.
Patrick Henry, thank you for that.
I stand correct.
Patrick Henry.
But of the Confederates, one may not be as well familiar.
And it's Senator Lounge.
Oh, yeah.
Senator Yancey.
Yeah, Senator Yancey, one of the guys most responsible for the secession of Alabama, the eventual creation of the Confederacy.
He split the Democratic Party famously in 1860.
His house, he has a house here in Wetsumka.
It's right down the road.
It's actually got an historic monument.
So, Yancey, you haven't seen it.
You know, there's surprise people.
You got the Impact Crater.
You got Yancey Bears?
He's buried in the cemetery in Montgomery.
One time after the conference, I think Sam, I think Sam led a whole group of us down.
We had been to the bars in Montgomery and we went to the graveyard.
Got to go to the bar first, though.
We were traipsing into the graveyard at like 9, 9.30.
We went to find Hank's grave, Hank Williams' grave, and Yancey's grave.
So Hank Williams and Senator Yancey, the original Alabama fire eater, are buried together.
Yes.
So Should not be a good one.
It was my old friend Bill Coffin who now passed away.
He led us down there.
Great man.
One of the best I've ever met.
There's been a lot.
As I said, my phone, I don't know if there's more who have passed on, who have gone on to receive their eternal reward, who are in my contacts list versus those who are living now.
But it's a fantastic collection.
Now, let's get to another important gentleman who has been here with us this weekend.
I'm going to take a quick timeout and a quick break before we get to our last segment.
Courtney from Alabama.
We are in Alabama.
Courtney from Alabama will be with us calling in in the next segment.
But before we do that, let's talk to our friend right here.
Please introduce yourself to the folks.
And I'm going to give you my mic.
Brad, you keep that.
You're going to host the rest of this segment because I've got to take a timeout.
But tell us about your work, your activism, and introduce yourself to the audience, and let's go from there.
Good evening, folks.
My name is Jordan Hewitt, and I am the chairman of the Southern Cultural Center East Georgia chapter.
And we meet every usually on the fourth Saturdays of the month.
Good bunch of folks, good discussions.
We talk, you know, we always get together, and it's usually a public forum at every event, or we'll discuss various different topics like gardening or politics and a whole bunch of other things.
If you're interested, we have a Facebook page, and we subscribe to the notion of come and see us.
Anybody is welcome to come and hear us out.
And if you agree with us, hopefully you'll also become a member of the Southern Cultural Center.
That's right.
Guys, we need to bring a solid base in Georgia and spread all throughout the South until we have a free South.
We need to have chapters in every county and every state.
Absolutely.
That's our goal.
There shouldn't, you know, as much as I love being here in Wetumpka and visiting this place.
I would like to see this, you know, something similar in every county of the state.
Closer.
Lean in.
You have to lean.
All right.
Yes, I think this was you, son.
But I think there should be Southern Cultural Centers in every southern county, every city, every town, spread out everywhere.
Oh, yeah, definitely.
This is, you know, one of my favorite things about this location is I've always liked coming here felt completely safe.
You don't have to worry about Antifa showing up and harassing you.
It's always been like a quiet, relaxed time.
It's the most relaxed conference, you know, I've gone to over the years.
And that's something, you know, I don't have to worry about somebody messing with your car.
Like, it's happened to me at other events.
Unfortunately, I can share stories.
This is not here, though.
Yeah, definitely, you know, since being here for these two days, you know, first time that me and my wife and my small young boy.
Oh, you got our kids are playing.
Exactly.
You know, two babies.
Hopefully next year let's get a few more babies here.
And they were both introduced on the stage today.
Oh, and I got to introduce my eldest, Henry.
He just arrived.
Just got in the building.
Congratulations.
This is our first boy.
If God wills it, hopefully we'll have more.
Oh, yeah.
I think I need a daughter.
Like, I've had two sons.
Like, that's going to be our next.
We already got a maid.
Huh?
Be fruitful and multiply.
That's the goal.
All right.
And I'm sure we're all going to have like, you know, partying and stuff later, and we'll talk.
That's always what we do.
The tribe starts at home.
Oh, absolutely.
I agree.
All right, my friends.
Here's good people all around at the Southern Cultural Center.
And the best part of events like this are what the folks don't get to hear.
That's what happens at one minute after we get off the air and throughout dress.
Those are the best times.
We've had a lot of good times together, haven't we not, Brad Griffin?
Many stories.
OccidentalDescent.com.
We're at the Southern Cultural Center, SouthernCulturalCenter.com.
You can't miss it, and, you know, I've got, all right.
I'm on too many apps now for these text messages, but we're going to take a break.
We've got one more segment.
Courtney from Alabama.
While we're in Alabama, we'll be calling in.
Now, Brad, you live in Alabama, so for me, this is a trip.
But anyway, we'll get two Alabamians together and yours truly.
And Courtney has ties the bind with both Brad and I, and that's how we'll close out the show tonight from the Southern Cultural Center.
Stay tuned.

Well, I'll tell you what, it's been a fantastic summer.
A hot and humid summer, as it always is here in the South.
But we've been all over the place since July down in or over in South Carolina, down to New Orleans, and then back up again to central Alabama tonight.
We've been on our own tour of Dixie here with TPC, these live remote broadcasts.
And on more than one occasion, Courtney from Alabama.
Now, we're actually in Alabama tonight with the native son of Alabama, Brad Griffin.
But Courtney from Alabama is not with us tonight.
Do you want to say anything about that, Brad?
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah.
We missed Courtney.
We thought Courtney from Alabama should.
She should certainly be here.
She's a sweet girl.
She does a lot.
And being a mom of two and all of the responsibilities.
She's difficult to travel sometimes.
But not only has she been a longtime contributor to this program, and we're all the better for it, she is one of your newly minted moderators at OD.
So she's helping her around.
She helps out both of us.
She sure does.
And she's great.
She's been around forever.
She's great.
She is.
We went to Auburn together.
We didn't know each other at the time.
Now, that's a tragedy.
That's a tragedy.
There was a lot of people who were there.
We didn't all even know each other at the time.
Not just us two.
Came to know each other later.
Yeah.
Well, she's been a stalwart for a long time, and she's fantastic.
And to know Courtney is to love her.
And anybody who's ever met her shares that affinity.
Courtney, how are you tonight?
Oh, hey.
Thanks.
I'm great.
Thanks for the very nice introduction.
Brad and James, I'm so glad to be here with you tonight, at least by phone.
If not in person, at least by a phone.
And we couldn't be in Alabama without having you involved in some way, shape, or form.
And I want to thank again, Brad.
And, well, if I thank everybody who's been on tonight, I don't think I would leave someone out, but it has been a fantastic show from start to finish with Ed and Mike and Mike and Sam and Jared and Cliff and George.
And I'm sure I'm forgetting someone, but it's been something, Courtney, you've been listening.
I don't know if you've listened to the entire program, but you've listened to some of it.
What did you think of tonight's show?
Well, you know, I'm glad you asked.
I think it's been great.
And I got to correct myself on something I think it was three Confederate history show, Confederate History Month shows back, like three years ago or something.
I came on, and we had a little bit of fun, you me and Keith, because I started making fun of Hollywood and how they really messed up the Southern accent because they use that old-fashioned gone with the Wind accent and every Southern movie, no matter the location.
And I kind of joked about how, you know, in Alabama, you don't really hear that old plantation accent anymore.
You hear people who sound more like me and Brad.
I mean, you know, I kind of heard it a little bit in older family members who have died off years and years ago, my great-grandparents who were in Montgomery.
But I got to correct myself because I've heard some people on the show tonight who kind of have that accent.
So maybe I might be wrong.
I don't know.
I tell you what, it has been a tour de force this year for TPC this summer, having at least transcended our own nation, if not this entire country that they call the United States.
But we've been from Tennessee to South Carolina twice.
I mean, of course, Brad, both you and Courtney were together in May at the TPC conference and then New Orleans and then back to Alabama and how we've done Alabama to Alabamians tonight.
But it's been fantastic.
Summer's coming to a close and so too is our tour.
But Courtney, you have a prepared statement tonight.
We've got about five minutes remaining.
I want to turn the floor over to you.
You deserve it.
And let's hear from you and then we'll try to have a minute to wrap things up.
Go.
Okay.
I'm going to try to get through this without choking up because if the audience hasn't already noticed, I just, I really love Alabama.
It's my home.
I'm crazy about it.
It's where my roots are.
All my grandparents, great-grandparents are buried in Alabama, and I know where all of them are buried.
I know where all their graves, where all their graves are.
In fact, where all of you right now are, you know, you're very close to where a lot of my family was for a very long time, you know, Montgomery, Alabama.
It's kind of my hometown in a way because that's where all my relatives used to be.
And, you know, when my father retired and I attended his retirement lunch and I'm going to call my father John.
I'm just going to call him John for the sake of this discussion.
There was a speaker who got up and kind of did a speech for him.
And he said, you know, John, anybody who's worked with him all these years, they know that there's three things that are so important to him that he just loves.
The first thing is Jesus Christ.
The second thing is his family.
The third thing is Alabama.
So you can tell it just really runs in our family.
We love where we're from.
Southerners love where they're from.
And I think there's a problem today where a lot of white people are losing an attachment to their homes, their ancestral homes.
And I notice so many white people in our country who are not Southerners, they don't have this attachment to their homes like we do down here.
And it's sad.
And you see the same thing going on in Europe.
There's white people leaving Great Britain right now as non-whites are pouring in.
The white people are leaving and going to Spain, Eastern Europe.
Eastern Europeans are leaving their homes and going to Western Europe.
And I just, I don't support that.
I think we need white people grounded and attached to their homes more, their ancestral homes.
We don't need white people fleeing Great Britain right now.
It's the last thing we need with all these non-whites coming in.
The enemy wants white people scattered everywhere in all these little communities all around the world that they want us uprooted.
And I don't support that.
I think it's easier for them to fight us.
It's easier for them to demoralize us when we're all scattered in little communities where our ancestors didn't live.
And I know there's people in the audience who are going to say, well, Courtney, you have it easy.
You're in this nice red state.
Of course, it's easy for you to be attached to your home and not want to leave it.
Well, I don't really like hearing that excuse because, trust me, Alabama has its own sets of issues.
We have a large black population, a growing Hispanic population.
It's a very poor and backward state in a lot of ways.
There's rural areas you can drive through, both white and black, that are very depressing and ugly looking, to be honest.
But despite all that, despite all that, I still love it here because it is my home.
And if I can love Alabama, then that, if being from Alabama, despite all its faults, you know, means I can still love it just because it's my home, then that means somebody from the great island of Great Britain can love Great Britain instead of running away from it.
Somebody from the great state of Maine can love Maine instead of running away from it.
Somebody from Oregon can love Oregon instead of running away from it.
White people need to be more grounded and attached to their soil.
Brad, do you want to give a response to that?
And that was a fantastic statement, Courtney.
To close things out tonight, to the Southern Cultural Center, SouthernCulturalCenter.com.
Having Courtney from Alabama while we're in Alabama tonight just seemed fitting.
Brad, final word to you.
Oh, I mean, I agree with all that.
And this is, you know, like, this is, you know, the, I think of it as the national headquarters for all of us who, you know, have these values and these attachments.
It's a wonderful facility, too.
People can't see it.
It's really an excellent place, you know, that's centrally located for people to come up and meet each other and get to know each other and form networks and sit around and have a good time.
This whole place, though, I mean, if you could see through our eyes here, I realize I like that sign over there.
I actually sent a picture of it to Courtney.
It's like, we salute the Alabama flag.
And there's another one that says, you know, we salute the Christian flag.
And then there's another one that's like, we salute the Confederate flag.
And it's like, yep, that's.
Well, I tell you, one flag that's not there, and it's the flag that's not allowed on my property.
A pledge to allegiance my children have never given.
Which flag is that?
Oh, I'm sorry.
I was lost in thought there.
What flag do you not see there on the podium?
Oh, the American flag.
The federal flag.
The federal flag.
But, you know, I mean, I really think the Southern Cultural Center, you know, they have all three bases covered, and that's so important to me.
They're pro-white, they're pro-South, and they're pro-Christian.
And that's like, and, you know, normal folks, and I can't recommend them highly enough.
And that's exactly, you know, my lane.
And it's great.
This is, it's always great to be here.
I love the cross-pollination.
I love the fact that steel reinforces and sharpens steel, and that all of us have arrived together at this terminus.
And we are here, and we are fighting together.
I'm glad you and Sam and Jared can come because this is perfect.
How about Sam and Jared that first hour?
Oh, yeah, that was, they were great.
And this is, you know, there's been no weak links tonight, all the way to the very end with Courtney closing it out.
Oh, we had a great lineup, I think.
Well, you can't do better.
You can't do better.
Courtney, final word to you.
I know you wanted to be here tonight, and you listened.
Final word.
We got Renee.
Walk away, Renee.
We're going to listen to the left bank here in the after party here.
And there will be an after party, right, Renee?
Renee shakes her head, yes.
All right, Courtney, final word to you.
Or should we get the final word to Renee?
Renee, you want to say something?
You're Gordon Baum's daughter.
Listen, Gordon Baum's children should be heard from tonight.
She's not really ready to push.
All right, she's not ready.
All right.
Courtney, 30 seconds.
Final word to you.
Let's see.
What more can I say?
Oh, man.
I just, I love our people.
I love the South.
I love Alabama, and I'm never going to apologize for that ever.
Well, I'll tell you this.
I'm heading to Atlanta tomorrow.
I'm going to see a concert.
And it's going to be fantastic.
You'll have to tell me about that.
I'm going to tell you about it in just a second.
But almost as good as this conference has been.
Almost.
But we'll do it.
And it's been great to be with you here tonight, folks, from Alabama, the Southern Cultural Center.
Have you had a good time tonight, Ad Bourne White?
