What do Canada’s military, North Korea’s alliance with Russia, and dating advice from a U.S. Army vet have in common? This episode.

Ryan is joined by returning guest Manny—a veteran with frontline stories, global hot takes, and zero filter. From serving in Afghanistan to debating gun rights, Greenland, and Trudeau, it’s a wild, honest ride through modern geopolitics and personal reflection.

00:00:00
I actually learned this from a Taliban commander.

00:00:02
So he says that war knows. What I want to hear.

00:00:05
Yeah, so he says war knows no genders, like victims of war,

00:00:09
like, you know, if, if you're a war fighter, if you're civilian,

00:00:12
right. I actually learned this from a

00:00:14
Taliban commander where where I was, you know, in Afghanistan.

00:00:17
And that was one of the most statements that kind of stuck

00:00:20
with me all my whole life. No, that and it certainly

00:00:23
applies here. Yes, sorry, I'm just giving

00:00:26
Canada. Our well, well I do was just a.

00:00:27
Military. Don't we defend those?

00:00:29
Guys, Well, well, well. I think at one point in time the

00:00:31
the Canadian Special Forces. They're pretty good.

00:00:34
They held the record for the longest sniper shot.

00:00:36
Oh, at one point. I don't want that to be true.

00:00:39
But I think that broke like a year or two ago.

00:00:41
But it's still OK. So they're legit.

00:00:43
Yeah, I think Canada could defend itself if the US wasn't

00:00:46
around. For Russia or China?

00:00:48
No right? That's what I'm saying.

00:00:50
Like the big mega houses? You think we can defend

00:00:52
ourselves from China or Russia? I mean, yeah, I'm gonna give you

00:00:55
AR15, right? Well, there you go.

00:00:56
Yeah, I'm not. Look, I'll I'll be freaking out.

00:00:58
I'll be in my bunker. You, you boys like Mexico?

00:01:02
No, I'll be in my bunker with my Scotch and yeah, and I'll poke

00:01:06
my head out and be like, how's it going out there?

00:01:08
You guys got this wrapped up yet?

00:01:10
All right. Lastly, the Gulf of America.

00:01:13
I mentioned that too. Yeah.

00:01:14
Are you for or against that? I think I'm for it.

00:01:22
Welcome to Stay in the Grade podcast.

00:01:24
We explore news that gets people talking by blending comedy and

00:01:28
controversy. I'm Ryan and I'm Trey.

00:01:43
Together, we dive into tough topics with a combination of

00:01:45
humor and some insight to join us as we navigate the Gray areas

00:01:51
of the world and we're engaging in real conversation.

00:01:55
Come get to know us. All right, my man, you're back.

00:01:59
Hey, Ryan. What's going on here?

00:02:02
It is I have to do the it's January the 17th for everybody.

00:02:07
So you know when I'm doing this. So in case something we say

00:02:10
comes out after the 17th, it's not our fault, right?

00:02:14
Because all you guys that like to write me and bitch about

00:02:18
facts that I got wrong, a lot of times it's because I did the

00:02:21
show and the facts came out after.

00:02:24
So fuck you. Yeah.

00:02:25
OK, got that out of the way. How are you my man?

00:02:30
Good man. Just working a lot, a lot over

00:02:33
time. Yeah, I hit it.

00:02:34
I hit a new attack bracket this year so.

00:02:38
Yeah, Yeah, right. Beautiful.

00:02:39
Yeah. Just to remind people, Manny is

00:02:43
a security officer currently. He works with a bunch of, I hate

00:02:48
to say people of need, but because that sounds incorrect.

00:02:52
People like children and churches and different, just

00:02:57
different type of security. And I, and I commend you and I,

00:03:00
I'm not going to kiss your ass again.

00:03:01
I already did it on the last episode, which you know I have

00:03:04
running here in the background. Yeah, you didn't say no homo.

00:03:07
Yeah. No, no, we, we're on this show.

00:03:10
We're all inclusive Manny, but Manny was on episode 313.

00:03:18
So go back, check it out if you want kind of more of his back

00:03:21
story. But you know, he was an army,

00:03:24
He's an Army veteran. He was in Afghanistan twice,

00:03:27
right? And had some experience with

00:03:29
bodyguard, bodyguarding and bouncing and just the whole

00:03:34
shebang. He likes to help people and I

00:03:36
admire that shit. And so I kissed his ass in the

00:03:39
in that other episode, and I'm not going to do it again.

00:03:42
We're going to move on. Go right into it.

00:03:44
Yeah, let's do it. You feel about that?

00:03:46
I feel great. That's good.

00:03:47
OK, well, let's talk current events.

00:03:50
I asked you what you want to talk about and you immediately

00:03:51
said inauguration. So that's coming up on Monday.

00:03:56
Yes, on Monday. So that'll be you.

00:03:59
People will be hearing this one day.

00:04:01
After that, this is the Tuesday release.

00:04:04
You'll be hearing this on the 21st or or after, in case you

00:04:08
don't get to it the day it comes out, but the inauguration will

00:04:12
have already taken place. Sitting here now on the 17th,

00:04:17
how do you feel about the inauguration as a whole?

00:04:20
You want to talk about it? Yeah, about it.

00:04:22
Yeah, right. Yeah, I think this is a big

00:04:26
positive change or a positive direction.

00:04:28
And, you know, I'm, I do feel for the viewers that you don't

00:04:31
think differently, but yeah. Well, that's nice of you.

00:04:35
Yeah, well, yeah. I'm I'm not that nice.

00:04:37
I'm like fuck you guys good. But but yeah, I think Donald

00:04:41
Trump's is gonna do some good policies.

00:04:43
He's gonna make some big changes.

00:04:44
So you, you were happy with it? You probably voted for Donald.

00:04:48
Oh, yes, I, I do have to say I did vote for Donald Trump.

00:04:52
That's only because, you know, I want to see, you know, for me as

00:04:55
the, a people person, a people protector.

00:04:58
I want to see people, you know, like not well, mainly because of

00:05:01
the war and what's going on right now.

00:05:03
I want to see people like, stop dying.

00:05:05
Well, yeah, that's a yeah, that's a good gesture.

00:05:09
And, and I'm with you and I've been talking about that, whether

00:05:12
it's the wars and, and you know, he's always been an anti war and

00:05:15
you know, that's why people come up and say otherwise.

00:05:18
I'm like, you're just, you're out of that.

00:05:20
You know, you're, you're wrong, But there's just a lot of people

00:05:24
that are being hurt right now. And I just feel like even though

00:05:28
he has the reputation that he does, which is mostly media

00:05:31
driven, I just feel like I don't none of it, but a lot of it's

00:05:35
just embellished for their, for their gain.

00:05:38
I mean, that's all they had the right, they had, they didn't

00:05:41
have performance because they've done shitty.

00:05:43
They had they they can't argue with the fact that he he does

00:05:47
follow through on his promises. You might not agree with what

00:05:49
he's going to do, but he's going to follow through on that.

00:05:51
He's not. He's not bullshitting us.

00:05:52
Yeah. And a lot of people, of course.

00:05:54
Yeah, you. No, he's not.

00:05:55
Almost like you should respect a result, Yes?

00:05:58
Or he's in delivered on his promises.

00:06:00
And if you don't like this over here that he does, OK, fine.

00:06:03
But guess what? What you did like over here,

00:06:05
he's going to deliver that too. So that's why I voted for him.

00:06:08
And I'm sure that it sounds like it's similar for you.

00:06:11
So you're not a you didn't like Joe Biden?

00:06:15
Yeah, well, yeah. Well, you know, for me, you

00:06:17
know, being a Trump supporter, yeah, Joe Biden was not very

00:06:22
good for, you know, America for. The past four years.

00:06:25
He's done some stuff with some, you know, I want to believe just

00:06:28
some shady deals that were, you know that.

00:06:30
Were see, I think that too a lot of people don't a lot of people

00:06:35
want to tell me that I'm in conspiracies, which we'll we'll

00:06:37
talk some conspiracies here in a in a minute, but it's just not I

00:06:41
there's just it's everything points to Hunter Biden and it

00:06:44
points to yes, the Zelensky shit.

00:06:46
The amount of money we've given to to them is insane yes, and

00:06:50
and that's my one of my biggest issues with Joe Biden.

00:06:53
I mean, besides the fact that he's, you know, doesn't push the

00:06:56
same policy that I, that I appreciate from a federal

00:06:59
government, but he's he's crooked.

00:07:02
Yeah, correct. And and Ryan at that money,

00:07:04
right. Why not, you know, help the

00:07:05
homeless? The our?

00:07:07
Our How about your veteran? Not veterans or you know, that's

00:07:10
built. I mean, where me and Ryan live

00:07:12
in Oak Cliff, why can't we better that neighborhood?

00:07:14
You know that money can be used elsewhere or like Oakland, CA.

00:07:18
Where we live in Dallas, areas that need help and and things

00:07:22
like that. Well, how about for catastrophes

00:07:24
that have natural disasters? Exactly.

00:07:27
And that that's my, again, big thing that I've been harping on.

00:07:30
It's just, look, we've got the fires, We got the North Carolina

00:07:33
people still living in tents. People are trying to tell me

00:07:36
that's not true. And but it is.

00:07:37
I mean, I've seen it people anyway.

00:07:40
So that was the big thing with Biden.

00:07:42
And I just, I, I couldn't, Kamala is a joke.

00:07:45
And the whole thing, I'm unable to align with the left right

00:07:48
now. The modern liberal is no good.

00:07:52
Hey, Ryan, can I say something? Yes, you're the guest.

00:07:55
OK, for sure. So hey guys, so I'm all about

00:07:58
female president, right? Just not.

00:08:00
Hillary, I like the hey guys, you're like bringing the people.

00:08:03
To Oh, of course, of course. No, Hey, I have to, you know.

00:08:05
Yeah. Grab as much as much as you.

00:08:08
Can I think I like what you're about to say?

00:08:09
Go ahead. Yeah, for sure, for sure.

00:08:11
But yeah, guys, so I believe in the female president and that

00:08:14
idea is great. Just not Hillary, and just not,

00:08:17
you know, come on. It needs to be the right one,

00:08:20
correct? And it's very similar to when I

00:08:24
was talking about the fires on two shows ago about the DEI

00:08:28
hiring. Yes.

00:08:30
And and I don't have a prompt. There's absolutely no problem at

00:08:33
all with anybody who's capable of doing the job.

00:08:37
And that's. Not about that.

00:08:38
And I can bash you. I can bash you on the DEI as

00:08:40
well. Like DEI in the army.

00:08:42
Not a good thing. Well, and but that's the point.

00:08:45
I'm with you and I and, and people are so offended by it and

00:08:49
so upset by it. You need to prepare adequately,

00:08:53
train adequately, be able to do the job and, and, and not just

00:08:59
jump to the head of the line because you are in that bubble.

00:09:03
And, and that's, that's the same situation here.

00:09:06
It's like just because she's a woman doesn't mean that she

00:09:08
should be the president. It's time for a woman president

00:09:11
will not Kamala Harris or Kamala, whatever she wants to go

00:09:13
by. She has issues and we won't get

00:09:16
back into Kamala because I got into that quite a bit.

00:09:20
But I just wanted to ask you what you thought.

00:09:21
Yeah, about about upcoming. Is this a good thing moving

00:09:25
forward? Yeah, right before we move on,

00:09:28
right. I actually learned this from a

00:09:29
Taliban commander. So he says that war this.

00:09:31
Is what I want to hear man. Yeah, so he says war knows no

00:09:34
genders like victims of war. Right.

00:09:37
Like, you know, if, if you're a war fighter, if you're civilian,

00:09:40
right. Wait, I actually learned this

00:09:41
from a Taliban commander Where? Where I was, you know, in

00:09:44
Afghanistan. And that was one of the most

00:09:47
statements that's kind of stuck with me all my whole life, you

00:09:50
know? Yeah, But yeah.

00:09:52
No, that and it certainly applies here.

00:09:54
Yes. Yes.

00:09:56
Well, thank you for sharing that.

00:09:57
Yeah, but check this out. So I read today, well, I read a

00:10:01
couple days ago that Michelle Obama has decided not to go to

00:10:04
the inauguration. And she announced that as if she

00:10:07
meant anything to anybody. I don't.

00:10:08
Oh, really? Who gives a shit about Michelle

00:10:10
Obama? Why does she feel like she needs

00:10:11
to announce this thing? I mean, if I was Michelle Obama,

00:10:14
I still, you know, out of retrospect or respect for the

00:10:17
the new president, not so. Much you would think.

00:10:19
Yeah, not so much Donald Trump, but Oscars.

00:10:21
But the process, correct, the tradition, the.

00:10:23
I mean, yes, be classy. Yeah.

00:10:25
You know, all they did is talk about how classy they were and

00:10:29
how this and that and show some respect and show this.

00:10:31
Yeah. And and they're not doing it.

00:10:32
They're hypocrites. Wow.

00:10:33
They are. They're hypocrites.

00:10:34
No, right. I actually didn't know that.

00:10:36
Yeah, Michelle Obama. Yeah, but guess what?

00:10:39
Guess who else? Her husband.

00:10:41
So Barack has come out today expected.

00:10:43
Yeah. George W Bush.

00:10:45
No way. Is not going.

00:10:48
Isn't he a Republican? He is a Republican, Manny, I'm

00:10:51
glad you brought that up. He's, in my opinion, he's a

00:10:53
different type of Republican real fast.

00:10:56
Bill Clinton is also not going to be there.

00:10:59
And the thing with George Bush is that I've always preached

00:11:02
about establishment. I think there's an establishment

00:11:05
and it includes both parties. And it's the politicians that

00:11:08
line their pockets with our tax money.

00:11:10
They're politicians that do crooked deals with a country

00:11:13
like Ukraine or, you know, a a Barack dropping off.

00:11:17
How much money to fucking? Was it Iran?

00:11:20
Yeah. How much money did you drop off

00:11:22
in the middle of the night? Do you remember?

00:11:23
That story, man Billions. Right.

00:11:24
It was billions by an airplane and cash bags.

00:11:27
It was like some movie. It was really weird.

00:11:29
And now and now everybody's going to let that go, Donald.

00:11:31
Barack Not only that right, but I mean military equipment.

00:11:35
She had drove the. Left behind?

00:11:37
Yes, it got left to all that military equipment and Trump

00:11:40
talks about that all the time with those airplane, The Jets.

00:11:43
What jets were those? You know I.

00:11:45
Can't remember. They said one of them crashed

00:11:48
and it was was it, what country was it?

00:11:50
Iran. It it might have been, it might.

00:11:53
Have been anyway, yeah, I left some planes behind and and one

00:11:56
of them crashed and so everybody was like well there's how many

00:12:00
how much of a plane cost out the out the door and then I was like

00:12:04
well I'm glad they crashed but I'm not glad that they have 12.

00:12:07
More of these to practice with. Yes.

00:12:10
You don't even want to know, right?

00:12:11
So like what I did in the Army, those rocket I shot, you don't

00:12:14
even know how much they cost. You shot the What did you shoot?

00:12:19
Yeah, so I was. Remind us I remember, but you

00:12:22
were in the tanks and shit. Well, yes and no, right.

00:12:25
So I'm. Yeah, I was like.

00:12:26
My terminology, yeah. So, so well, it's.

00:12:29
OK, I mean, you're not a. Military guy, I don't know.

00:12:31
You don't fucking. Thing but but yeah, so I'm

00:12:33
almost what I'm what you call it as a military Colt 13 MIC and

00:12:36
that's MLRS, right, which is a multiple launch rocket, all

00:12:40
right. And so you know those are yeah,

00:12:42
essentially, if you can think of a tank chassis, right?

00:12:46
And then, you know, in, in in 4th of July, those are Chinese

00:12:49
New Year bosses, right? That has like 50 missiles.

00:12:51
Yeah, that was me. Like right in the back.

00:12:53
Of the tank chassis, yeah. Yeah, I would.

00:12:55
I see. I wish I I would.

00:12:57
I could do something cool like that.

00:12:58
I'd be in the in the bottom of the tank, like with cold beer,

00:13:01
just like guys, you guys got this.

00:13:03
You know guys, I think Ryan would be a really good.

00:13:05
I'd be the driver. No, no, no.

00:13:07
Ryan would be a good nuclear button pusher.

00:13:09
Oh yeah, yeah. Fuck yeah.

00:13:11
I want that power. Oh yeah.

00:13:14
What do you think about? Yeah, I might have to.

00:13:17
Yeah, Ryan, that guy. Oh, yeah, they do.

00:13:20
They talk about all the different presidents having

00:13:23
access to that. That's you don't want me to have

00:13:26
access to that. The presidents are fine.

00:13:29
Well, cool. The last thing I wanted to

00:13:31
mention because these people aren't showing up is I had

00:13:35
somebody close to me that came up with this.

00:13:37
And of course, I'm getting more and more to conspiracies, Manny.

00:13:41
I just can't. Not real conspiracies.

00:13:44
But what's sad is that these things are possible.

00:13:47
I mean, it's more likely that it's so I hate to call them

00:13:50
conspiracies. Because they could be truth,

00:13:52
could be truth. Tell me how off this is.

00:13:55
These people who are announcing, and they're all of them are

00:13:58
announcing, they're not going to go to this inauguration.

00:14:00
What if something is going to happen?

00:14:04
Oh, what if somebody's planned something and they're basically

00:14:08
saying you guys don't go? Oh, like a like a area?

00:14:11
Affected missile drones, sure. That's exactly what I was

00:14:15
thinking. Oh.

00:14:15
No, no, let's talk about the the New Jersey, you know, drone.

00:14:18
Ring well the drones yeah, isn't that a in that the rumor China.

00:14:22
Well, China and Iran, that's the rumors.

00:14:24
But we don't. We still don't know yet.

00:14:25
Well, and of course they had the gentleman that bombed the the

00:14:28
Tesla bomber was a army. Army, yes, he was on leave, but

00:14:34
there's a lot to that. And, and I don't, I don't know

00:14:36
enough right now to get more into it.

00:14:38
I've, I've done it a couple shows.

00:14:40
I talked about this guy Libelsberger and he on his

00:14:44
manifesto in an e-mail he sent into another podcaster who

00:14:47
happened to be an Army vet. Now Ryan can't touch on that.

00:14:51
Please do because it's my, you know.

00:14:53
That's almost insane and impossible for me, right.

00:14:56
So if you're OK, so if you're joining to be special forces of

00:15:00
country, right, you're probably like one of the top 1% that

00:15:03
really loves this country, you know, like, why would you betray

00:15:07
your country like in that fashion, you know, like you're

00:15:10
you're like the best of the best, like, you know, like the

00:15:12
number one union right of military, you know, and like,

00:15:15
why would you want to hurt your own people, you know well.

00:15:19
Well, there's rumors. The one rumor is that he didn't

00:15:21
do it and that somebody put his body in there.

00:15:23
I don't know how you do that. Elon's debunked the idea that

00:15:27
that Tesla can self drive. A lot of people are like it can

00:15:29
self drive. The body was in there and sent

00:15:31
into the thing, you know, and Elon's claiming you have to be a

00:15:36
functional body. And I don't know how the I don't

00:15:38
know how the Tesla knows that. Well, you know, Elon's making

00:15:40
clones. Wink wink.

00:15:43
That's my point. None of this stuff.

00:15:45
This stuff is not as conspiracy theory ask as people want to

00:15:49
make it. True.

00:15:50
So, so this guy, this Libelsberger guy, he's talking

00:15:53
about how these drones are, are he's saying Chinese and they're

00:15:57
all have been on the East Coast and they're poised to strike at

00:16:00
any time. And that he literally said the

00:16:02
following quote, UN quote, they could hover above the White

00:16:06
House. Nobody could do anything.

00:16:08
Checkmate. And and that's freaky.

00:16:11
And this guy's dead now. And this is his supposed

00:16:13
manifesto and his emails and, and you're and you're.

00:16:17
Well, what the fuck? Yeah, You know, right.

00:16:19
I'm not so scared, you know, because I feel like our

00:16:22
government or, you know, our federal, you know, defense on

00:16:25
that side would have some kind of countermeasure for that.

00:16:28
You would think that now I'm hearing all this crazy stuff

00:16:30
about the FBI and I'm hearing this and I'm, you know, and and

00:16:34
that's why I'm so excited to get somebody like Donald Trump in

00:16:37
there because you don't have to like this guy.

00:16:39
I get it. I understand that he's I think

00:16:41
he's fine. You know, I laugh at him and I'd

00:16:43
love to hang out and have a Donald, if you're listening,

00:16:47
I'll have a drink with you and play a round of golf with you.

00:16:48
And I would. That would be incredible.

00:16:51
Bucket list. Yeah, top of my bucket list,

00:16:53
Donald. Yeah, you should hire me as a

00:16:54
secret. There you go, supervisor.

00:16:56
That's right. You bouncer and bodyguard

00:16:58
experience. And you will handle us

00:17:00
accordingly. I'm sure he's got some already.

00:17:01
But for me, you'll be there for me.

00:17:03
Yeah. His guys, they don't give a shit

00:17:05
about me. You will.

00:17:06
You'll be there. Yeah, but I think he's funny.

00:17:09
But a lot of people don't but that.

00:17:11
But he's the guy that's going to come in and say no one's messing

00:17:14
with us. Yeah, he's the one that's going

00:17:16
to come in and say this drone shit.

00:17:18
No, we're blowing him. They're gone.

00:17:21
And why has nobody done that? Everyone's just kind of like,

00:17:24
oh, they're fine. He's almost like America's Big

00:17:26
Brother. Yeah, you know, when, when

00:17:28
Little brother's like, you know, messing up or like, you know, he

00:17:31
has the bully or here comes Big Brother, you know, let me have

00:17:34
no much, much much yet, you know.

00:17:36
Yeah, yeah, I mean, but he, he's, he's not afraid to upset

00:17:43
some of the the you know, I say the minority, I'm not meaning

00:17:46
minorities. I'm saying the minority of the

00:17:48
country, which are the ones that are screaming like don't, don't

00:17:50
blow the the drones out because you don't know if they're legit

00:17:54
or not. I mean, come on.

00:17:55
They're they're they're flying in with lights off during the

00:17:58
middle of the night so that they can get that defies FAA

00:18:03
regulations and that's illegal. Why else would they be flying at

00:18:07
night without their lights on Something Shady's going on now

00:18:10
this levels burger is trying to claim that something shady is

00:18:14
going on and I'm willing to listen.

00:18:16
At this point in this world, nothing is beyond me and some

00:18:20
things are going to be Flat Earth.

00:18:21
It's beyond me. Manny, I tell you what I did a

00:18:23
we won't go off from this, but I did a Flat Earth story about

00:18:26
people went down an article to prove that the sun would go down

00:18:30
beyond even though it was the solstice in America where it

00:18:34
stays daylight all the all 24 hours for months, right?

00:18:39
Because it's facing the sun. So it never sets, but they're

00:18:42
climbing. It will set over the edge

00:18:43
because it's flat. Guess what?

00:18:46
Sun didn't fucking set. Oh, I see.

00:18:48
And they're they're, they're like downtrodden.

00:18:52
Can you imagine like being already partying and all of a

00:18:55
sudden it just doesn't happen. They're like anytime now it's

00:18:58
going to set, you know, and, and supposedly they waited 5 days

00:19:01
and it just didn't set and they're like OK.

00:19:03
Hey, Ryan, random question for you, right, OK.

00:19:06
Yeah. So.

00:19:07
I was random. You're going to be random.

00:19:08
Yeah, so there's a place in in the world right where like the

00:19:10
Northern Lights always stay are on and it's like daylight like

00:19:15
almost nearly 24/7. Would you ever live in a place

00:19:18
like that? If.

00:19:18
The northern light? I thought the Northern Lights

00:19:20
were more of a night time thing. When I saw him it was, oh, was

00:19:23
it like greenish at night? Yeah, I, I.

00:19:26
You're talking about the sunlight.

00:19:27
Yeah, I, I I could be wrong, but yeah, just I.

00:19:29
Have to look into it. Yeah, which I don't know.

00:19:31
I mean, I when I was in Scotland, it would in the winter

00:19:33
time, it would get, I'll do summertime.

00:19:35
So the light would come up at like 4:00 in the morning and

00:19:38
stay until 11 at night, 11:00 PM, almost midnight.

00:19:42
There'd be a, you know, you'd see the dusk and you'd have 4

00:19:46
hours of darkness. That's it.

00:19:47
Oh really. And that was just Scotland.

00:19:49
Go even further up. And and so, you know, there are

00:19:51
parts of Alaska I think that have all day and the winter was

00:19:54
the opposite. So sun would come up at like

00:19:56
10:00 AM and set at 2-3 in the afternoon.

00:20:00
So I don't know. I did do that.

00:20:02
I don't know. What about you?

00:20:05
Would you get depressed? People think you you get

00:20:06
depressed in that situation, but.

00:20:08
You know, it's funny as I get older and my my birthday is next

00:20:11
month, right? Yeah, I'll be turning 36.

00:20:12
Next month that's not quite ready for a happy birthday for

00:20:15
me yet. I'll I'll tell you next month,

00:20:17
but. I don't know, I appreciate

00:20:18
sunlight so I I like it better when there's more daylight

00:20:21
versus in all night time. So you'd be happy in the summer,

00:20:24
but you wouldn't in the winter. So.

00:20:25
And you need 2 houses. You need one in the far north

00:20:29
and one in the far South, Correct.

00:20:30
You gave me a random thing I was telling you about a random

00:20:33
thing. Yeah, what are we talking about?

00:20:36
Fuck it, we we got off topic anyway, so bring I was talking

00:20:40
about conspiracy theories and we talked about levels Burger.

00:20:42
That's what it was. I went off on Let's let's forget

00:20:45
that because I want to I'm going to keep an eye on it though.

00:20:47
The drones. So we're talking about all the

00:20:48
drones. Look, there's a drone that

00:20:50
crashed into one of the planes that's putting on the fires and

00:20:54
that wasn't approved, that wasn't FAA approved.

00:20:56
It was just some and and likely it was probably somebody that

00:20:58
just was had a lot of money and had a big drone.

00:21:01
They want to be hero. Want.

00:21:02
To be hero and then all of a sudden it puts A6 inch hole in

00:21:05
the plane and it and they don't have that use of that plane for

00:21:08
four days. Will they need that yes and

00:21:11
everything they can hit get right now because of the

00:21:13
government. We won't.

00:21:15
We'll talk about that right now. So anyway, so that's my

00:21:19
conspiracy there. What if something happens?

00:21:21
I don't know. My God, I hope it doesn't,

00:21:23
obviously, but we'll know on Tuesday when you listen to the

00:21:25
show. Or like or like.

00:21:28
Say right, let's say it. Can we say like if?

00:21:31
If something did happen. So let's say.

00:21:33
Oh my God, if we'll be investigated if something

00:21:35
happens. Well, I'm a Christian now, so

00:21:37
God. Forbid OK.

00:21:38
Let's say, you know, Joe Biden passes away and there's like a,

00:21:41
you know, like a a presidential crisis where it holds, where it

00:21:44
holds everything. Yeah.

00:21:46
Can you imagine that though? You know.

00:21:49
Yeah, What would happen in that, do you think?

00:21:51
Do you think that you see this is real bullshit right here,

00:21:54
conspiracy and I acknowledge that people calm down.

00:21:59
Do you think that the Democrats or people of power within that

00:22:03
are Democrats like George Soros or somebody like that, somebody

00:22:07
that had a lot of money, somebody that had a lot of

00:22:08
power, would think about taking Joe out?

00:22:12
Yeah. Just to halt it, to delay, stop

00:22:16
it, delay it. He's basically taking one for

00:22:17
the team. Like, yeah, right.

00:22:19
Like Can you imagine though? I don't know what the I mean.

00:22:22
He won the election against a different person.

00:22:26
So he Trump would go. You would think he would go in

00:22:29
regardless. But I mean, would they make?

00:22:31
Kamala President for one day Well.

00:22:33
I mean, Ryan, you know, like, let's just say you don't like,

00:22:35
let's say Dallas had like a big war or an invasion, right?

00:22:38
The mayor or whoever would say, hey, we're in the state of

00:22:41
emergency and, you know, that would disrupt, you know, any

00:22:44
kind of like, you know, sure, you know, just, I guess stuff

00:22:46
like that. Wonder what would?

00:22:47
Happen in that situation. I mean, like I said, do they, do

00:22:50
they anoint her president for one day and she'll be the first,

00:22:53
technically the 1st? Yeah, I'll be curious.

00:22:55
Woman president that's the yeah, that's that's interesting too.

00:22:58
All right, I I talked about this also many on one of the other

00:23:01
shows, because everybody, both sides anti Trump people, we're

00:23:08
using it as a see this guy's out of control and Trump people were

00:23:13
like, this is kind of cool. This is fun.

00:23:15
So I'm just calling it Trump expansion.

00:23:18
OK, And so you and I were talking a little bit about it

00:23:21
earlier about one of them, but there's four the the main four.

00:23:26
And do you want to go one by one or do you want me to list them

00:23:29
out and then we'll go. You list them.

00:23:31
Yeah. Let's listen.

00:23:32
OK, You've got the Greenland issue, OK.

00:23:35
You've got the Canada stuff, which we'll get to that you and

00:23:39
then you have Panama, the Panama Canal.

00:23:41
Oh, wow. OK.

00:23:42
Those are the three because those are the things he said

00:23:45
that he's interested in pursuing Panama Canal.

00:23:48
If he's saying if, if China, he believes China's involved in

00:23:52
running it. Didn't we built that?

00:23:55
That's our point. There's a huge agreement that

00:23:57
was made that if there was ever a security threat that we, we

00:24:02
could act. And Donald is saying he believes

00:24:06
that the Chinese are in bed with them, are helping to operate it.

00:24:11
And if that's the case, then we have every right to act.

00:24:14
And that's all he's saying. And everybody's like, hey, he's

00:24:17
going to start war with Panama. Come on.

00:24:21
So that's that's the other one. And then the 4th 1 is the funny

00:24:24
one. And, and I don't think that

00:24:27
people say, well, what do you think?

00:24:28
I mean, what do you think about it, Ryan?

00:24:30
And I, you know, I think it's funny.

00:24:31
So let's do it. The Gulf of America.

00:24:35
Oh yeah, I mean, he said it. But this is a guy that could sit

00:24:39
here in an interview and somebody could.

00:24:42
He could. That just came to him and he's

00:24:44
going to say it in jest. Oh, Ryan, you, you want to know

00:24:47
something funny? Always.

00:24:49
OK, Have you seen the newest John the Wick movie?

00:24:52
No. OK, so.

00:24:53
I haven't seen the oldest or any in between.

00:24:55
So do you mind? Spoilers, I probably won't want

00:24:58
you, so go ahead. OK, so in this in the new John

00:25:00
Wick movie, right? So John Wick, the final scene,

00:25:04
his archdemicist, they go on a duel, right?

00:25:07
And so imagine if Trump and the president of Mexico, the

00:25:10
president of Mexico, right? That is a duel.

00:25:12
Yeah. Was Pistol, is she a woman?

00:25:14
Not that the women can't shoot guns.

00:25:16
People say yeah, say right. So you.

00:25:18
Have to give these disclaimers every fucking thing I say Manny.

00:25:21
So they take the old traditional 10 spaces or 10 paces back, turn

00:25:27
around and shoot right. Okay, I think that's how it's

00:25:30
old school. Or with BB guns.

00:25:32
So nobody, yeah. You know you get points or

00:25:34
paintball gun. Yeah, for the right of the Gulf.

00:25:37
Yeah, the paintball, A duel God, the pan of all President and

00:25:42
Trump. Can you imagine?

00:25:43
Yeah. All the leaders look Putin and

00:25:45
Zelinsky, settle your shit with a goddamn paintball.

00:25:48
Can you imagine? That a duel with a paintball

00:25:50
gun? Do it.

00:25:51
That'd be hilarious. Put it on.

00:25:53
Put it on pay-per-view. Put it on Amazon Prime.

00:25:56
They put in football on Amazon Prime.

00:25:58
That'd be the most watched thing ever.

00:26:00
Wouldn't. It Yeah, hey, pay $500.

00:26:02
Can you imagine like Trump versus Putin in a standoff with

00:26:04
paintball? I mean I pay 500 bucks for it.

00:26:08
Get a group together and we'll all split that shit.

00:26:10
Yeah. OK, That's that's funny.

00:26:11
I like it. So let's talk about Greenland

00:26:13
first. OK, Again, when we were kind of

00:26:15
talking about what what we wanted to discuss tonight, you

00:26:18
you wanted to talk about Greenland.

00:26:20
So I'm gonna let you go. So what do you want to talk

00:26:22
about? Well, the message is.

00:26:24
Right, threw you right in there. So Greenland, right?

00:26:27
The land is icy, right? The land is icy, Yeah, most of

00:26:31
it, obviously. And towns.

00:26:33
And in Iceland, the land is green.

00:26:35
And this is winter, OK, when it's winter, it's still snow and

00:26:39
stuff, but in the summertime it it will get green.

00:26:42
So that was like the Vikings, from what I heard is the

00:26:45
Vikings, right? They were, they were trying to

00:26:47
fool people so they wouldn't come there and colonize and try

00:26:50
and and be the they wanted it for themselves.

00:26:53
So they said go to this ice block over here.

00:26:55
It's green. It's great.

00:26:57
We're going to stay at Iceland. And and that made people go.

00:26:59
We don't want to go there. I actually did.

00:27:01
I actually did not know. Really.

00:27:02
Yeah. That was The thing is they're

00:27:03
trying to fake people out. Would you imagine if the Native

00:27:06
Americans did that to Christopher Columbus?

00:27:08
That would be hilarious. Yeah, this is called, you know,

00:27:11
firestorm shit show or something.

00:27:14
You know, that wasn't my best work, but you get the point.

00:27:19
That's a whole another topic. The Native American thing.

00:27:21
I I did a show on that too on Thanksgiving.

00:27:23
And I really want to have a somebody who's passionate about

00:27:29
about that and somebody who is a Native American like full

00:27:32
blooded, not as 116th bullshit. That's not native.

00:27:36
You're not, you're like great, great, great, great, whatever

00:27:39
bullshit. But I want somebody that, that

00:27:41
has done research that has studied that, that knows more

00:27:45
than me about it, obviously to come in here and, and debate me

00:27:48
on how they're not to blame also for, for everything.

00:27:52
This is hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years.

00:27:55
This wasn't like the Europeans got here and then like wiped him

00:27:58
off the face of the of the earth in, in two years.

00:28:01
This was attempted coexistence. And when it didn't work,

00:28:06
somebody had to go. And I get that they were here

00:28:09
for we won't get into it, but it but that's I want I want to have

00:28:12
that conversation. So when you brought that up,

00:28:13
it's just like you and I, we bring bring up all these topics.

00:28:17
Let's stay on topic. Yes, let's do it, Yeah.

00:28:19
So Greenland. So so you wanted to know say

00:28:21
yes, Manny Greenland is ice mostly, but the towns I imagine

00:28:26
I don't know if it's if it's all 12 months.

00:28:30
I don't know that. I mean, I, there are parts that

00:28:33
are every time I've flown over to Europe, you know, you go over

00:28:38
Iceland or Greenland and it's, it's like, it looks like

00:28:41
glaciers. It's pretty.

00:28:42
It's pretty, it's pretty. It's beautiful.

00:28:44
You're right, I feel like Greenland will be like

00:28:46
logistically right will be hard to defend.

00:28:48
Well, what what they're saying, what Trump is saying is that

00:28:51
that's actually beneficial for defense because you're basically

00:28:55
you're basically putting people coming towards us.

00:28:58
And now we're we're in we're in the way.

00:29:01
Now, obviously you can go around the other way of the globe,

00:29:03
which is the Atlantic. I see.

00:29:05
But coming, coming NI didn't think about that from the north

00:29:07
side, from Russia, which is right there.

00:29:10
Yeah. And, and you know, the

00:29:12
Scandinavian countries, they're not going to do shit.

00:29:14
Yeah, I was thinking more of the along the lines of like moving

00:29:17
warships, fire planes and tanks over there, you know, fuel and

00:29:21
all that. That's all.

00:29:23
Yeah, I don't know how they would do set it up, but that's

00:29:25
what the point is. They want to put you and I and

00:29:27
I, of course, everyone's warning the Greenlanders.

00:29:30
You know, I think there's only 45 total people in that

00:29:32
whole island, that whole huge place, because they're on the

00:29:36
little coastal towns. And and I think they're warning

00:29:40
the US is going to come and put a bunch of bases.

00:29:42
I think if you get it far enough away, but I don't know how much

00:29:45
land is available to put these bases.

00:29:48
I think you have to keep it close to the only land that the

00:29:51
towns are, right? Yeah, I don't know.

00:29:53
Well, Ron, imagine if you moved a stain the Gray over there.

00:29:57
Yeah, yeah, you'll probably be OK Yeah, you'll probably make

00:29:59
some of your Europeans listeners really happy.

00:30:01
They'll probably hop on the show and.

00:30:03
Maybe I'll do a like a summer home, winter home situation

00:30:07
where we'll do half the shows there and half the shows here.

00:30:09
I think it'd be fascinating to. I've always wanted to go to

00:30:11
Iceland. It's just somehow it eluded me.

00:30:14
I've had chances to go. I just didn't get to, I didn't

00:30:16
make it there. And so I'm still trying to get

00:30:18
there. Greenland would be so cool.

00:30:20
I mean, come on, how many people have been to Greenland?

00:30:22
Yeah, I haven't. And just to talk to those people

00:30:24
and be like, what's it like to be kind of on the North fucking

00:30:26
Pole and no one's here. And I tell you what, you better

00:30:31
like the people that are here because that's all you got.

00:30:34
And so I think there was some excitement when Donald Trump

00:30:36
junior went up there. Oh, oh, did you hear about this?

00:30:39
No, he went up there with Charlie Kirk.

00:30:41
You know, Charlie Kirk. Yes.

00:30:43
OK. You know, I, I like Charlie.

00:30:45
A lot of people don't because he goes to college campuses and

00:30:48
people think that he takes advantage of the College of the

00:30:53
youth that aren't prepared and they put themselves on the mic.

00:30:58
But he as he always says, no one has to step up here.

00:31:00
I'm not making you step up and talk.

00:31:02
I'm here if you want to talk And and I'm just telling you, I'm

00:31:05
just willing to talk and that's what I always say.

00:31:07
So I like the guy for that. Just talk.

00:31:10
What's the worst happened? But these he was there and then

00:31:14
I forget the third guy and I and I apologize to whoever the hell

00:31:17
that is, but there were a couple of them went up on the Trump

00:31:20
plane and landed and they showed it.

00:31:22
And then when they got there, there's this huge, like it's a

00:31:25
huge, it wasn't, you know, not huge, but when they walked in,

00:31:29
it was a big, they all had their Make America Great again hats on

00:31:32
and they were taking pictures and they were the, the Prime

00:31:35
Minister, I believe, was there and he had a huge smile on his

00:31:37
face and they were welcoming. And then Donald called in on the

00:31:42
and Donald Junior put him on speaker and he kind of said,

00:31:45
Hey, you know, this is great. And we would we would make sure

00:31:48
we take care of you guys. And and all of a sudden, you

00:31:51
know, they've been trying to get away from Denmark for years and

00:31:53
years doing Denmark and fucking Denmark.

00:31:57
Give me a break. And so, you know, now the

00:32:02
argument from the the left was that Greenland doesn't want

00:32:06
anything to do with Donald Trump.

00:32:07
Well, no, I disagree that that's proof.

00:32:10
There's video of it unless they all got together and said, let's

00:32:13
just fake it out. Fake them out.

00:32:15
They were pretty convincing if that's the case and and finally

00:32:19
the Prime Minister guy, I forget his name, it's Greenlander name.

00:32:23
He he finally said yeah, I'm I'm ready to talk to Donald just

00:32:26
about possibilities. Wow great.

00:32:28
That is good. Yeah.

00:32:29
You know, it whether it's a straight up purchase of the

00:32:32
land, I don't know. But if if the United States can

00:32:35
acquire it in some way and and take care of it and defend it

00:32:40
and or we have defence against Russia from the from their

00:32:44
immediate and the oceans around it, it's beneficial.

00:32:49
Now they have tons of natural resources.

00:32:51
So people are saying, of course, that we're interested in that.

00:32:53
But if that's part of the deal, there we go.

00:32:56
So I don't know. I mean, again, here I go

00:32:58
interrupting my own guest. I apologize.

00:33:01
You wanted to talk about Greenland.

00:33:02
What did you was there? Was that pretty much you just

00:33:04
wanted to talk about it? Or yeah, pretty much it just to

00:33:06
bring it up and. Just what do you think?

00:33:08
I mean, you think that's we're going to Donald's getting in

00:33:11
here again and he's going crazy or do you think this is like now

00:33:13
that you hear this is just legit?

00:33:15
So, or for me, I mean, I like the idea, you know, I guess.

00:33:19
I'm not sure go there. I want to go.

00:33:20
Yeah, I'm not sure It would be more like, you know, Puerto Rico

00:33:23
or like the US virgin, you know, kind of a territorial, you know,

00:33:27
kind of deal. But but yeah, I.

00:33:29
Think it would be. It's not going to be a state.

00:33:30
Yeah. You know, there's some funny

00:33:33
memes out there. Yeah, I've seen that.

00:33:35
I've brought up where they've got like a red dot on the map

00:33:39
and it's like on on the southern point of Greenland.

00:33:41
It's like Trump Tower, like it's like over there.

00:33:44
And then it's got Mexico is now called South Texas.

00:33:48
And there's it's just funny and and you know, people having a

00:33:51
good time with it and then then you get the butt hurt people.

00:33:54
How can we even joke about this? Because it's funny.

00:33:57
It's a joke, it's hilarious. It's the fact that you guys have

00:33:59
made Donald Trump out to be this way and here all of a sudden

00:34:03
he's we're going to make maps and make silly memes.

00:34:06
It's funny. So Canada, that's different,

00:34:13
this 51st state stuff that that's been, that's not serious,

00:34:17
it can't be, can it? Have you heard this?

00:34:19
No right is Is it true that Justin Trudeau stepped down?

00:34:22
Yes, that's what I'm thinking too.

00:34:23
So they don't have a Prime Minister.

00:34:25
Well, he's to live until they until they elect a new one or

00:34:28
however, however they do it. But he's in there now and he's

00:34:32
of course, and, and this has to be a Trump effect, right, Don't

00:34:35
you think? I mean, it has to be.

00:34:37
You don't want to deal with Donald.

00:34:38
They don't get along. Yeah, I think so.

00:34:40
I mean, yeah, I would want to say.

00:34:41
Something well the timing seems and you know, yeah, right.

00:34:45
But for me, I'm thinking of more long as like, hey, you know,

00:34:48
what would happen if Canada join, you know, USA, you know.

00:34:52
Well, how would you do it? Would it be a state?

00:34:54
That's a big damn state, I mean. Yeah.

00:34:56
Would you open the borders? You know, stuff like that.

00:34:58
Well, sure, it'd be the United States so that that border would

00:35:01
be open, but it would be the United States.

00:35:03
So every every kind of vetting and every kind of whatever

00:35:05
coming into it would be the US, yeah, TSA, you know, that whole

00:35:09
thing. I think I'm all right.

00:35:11
So let's just say, right, since we're staying the Gray, let's

00:35:14
just say about Russia or China. I wouldn't want to say that.

00:35:17
Hey, you know, hey, America, what are you doing?

00:35:20
You're going to, you know, increase your military power by

00:35:22
40% or. So you know with Canada.

00:35:25
Well, if we had Canada, you know.

00:35:27
Do they even have that much? Well, sorry, I'm just giving

00:35:31
Canada hard. Well, I do, was just a military.

00:35:34
Don't we defend those? Guys, Well, well, well.

00:35:36
I think at one point in time the the Canadian Special Forces.

00:35:39
They're pretty good. They held the record for the

00:35:41
longest sniper shot at one point in.

00:35:43
Time. I don't want that to be true.

00:35:45
But I think that broke like a year or two.

00:35:46
Ago. OK, but it's still OK.

00:35:48
So they're legit? Yeah, they can.

00:35:50
Do you think they can defend themselves if we were taken over

00:35:53
by somebody? Canada or US?

00:35:55
Canada. You think Canada could defend

00:35:56
itself if the US wasn't around? For Russia or China, no.

00:36:00
Right, that's what I'm saying. Like the big mega houses?

00:36:03
You think we can defend ourselves from China or Russia?

00:36:05
I mean, yeah, I'm, I'm gonna give you AAR 15 right in this.

00:36:07
Well, there you go. Yeah, I'm not like I'll, I'll

00:36:10
be, I'll be freaking out. I'll be in my bunker.

00:36:12
You you boys like Mexico? Yeah.

00:36:15
No, I'll be in my bunker with my Scotch and yeah, and I'll, I'll

00:36:18
poke my head out and be like, how's it going out there?

00:36:21
You guys got this wrapped up yet?

00:36:24
OK, so Canada, that's the other issue.

00:36:25
So Trudeau steps down Trump, apparently the guy that's going

00:36:29
to replace him because Canada's got the same kind of wave going,

00:36:32
which is they're tired of the leadership.

00:36:34
Trudeau, I wish him no ill will. He is a family man, whatever,

00:36:40
but he's a beta male. He is he's a little he's he's

00:36:44
not a good leader paved to the woke and it's caused Canada

00:36:49
issues and and most Canadians that I've that I see are like

00:36:54
hell yeah, we hate this guy and Trump is the anti Trudeau.

00:36:58
It just is so the apparently the guy that's looking to replace

00:37:01
him. He's very conservative, very

00:37:03
Trump esque. I see, which is very interesting

00:37:08
for. Canada, that is.

00:37:09
And apparently he's very kind of nonchalant, like, yeah, I'm

00:37:13
going in there, I'll do what I, you know, whatever, like that.

00:37:16
And if that kind of guy is like, oh, this will be great.

00:37:19
I'll just make a deal with Trump and we're good.

00:37:21
And, and all of a sudden, you know, they're in our programs,

00:37:26
they're in our this, they're, they're part of the United

00:37:29
States. How would they do that?

00:37:31
Would you keep the provinces and make them states?

00:37:34
Do you, it's it the possibilities?

00:37:37
Yeah, that's what would you do with Canada?

00:37:39
Do you want Canada or do you think that's silly?

00:37:42
You know what's funny? I'm.

00:37:43
Trying to let you talk. I've been, yeah.

00:37:44
Yeah. I think I would let Canada,

00:37:47
like, be his own thing, yeah. I wouldn't like assimilate like

00:37:51
US, you know, into like Canadian, you know?

00:37:54
So if we're keeping score, you're Greenland OK with yeah,

00:37:58
Canada be Canada. Yeah be, yeah, let Canada be

00:38:01
Canada and like, let them have their identity, you know?

00:38:04
Right. Yeah, but you know, I rather

00:38:05
have my Mcgriddles over there. You know, syrup or whatever.

00:38:09
They're Maple syrup. Yeah, they do make some good

00:38:13
fucking well, you know, hockey outlet and I'm a I'm a fan, you

00:38:18
know, French Canadians. We got to talk because I have a

00:38:20
love hate with the French and you guys.

00:38:23
What did they give us? A George.

00:38:24
Saint Pierre, I think. Who's that is?

00:38:27
The well, he was once AUFC champion.

00:38:30
Fighter. Oh, St.

00:38:31
Pierre, that guy. Yeah, I've heard of him.

00:38:33
Is that he's French Canadian? I think I believe so.

00:38:35
Maybe he had no clothes except for this little underwear on.

00:38:38
Yeah, No, I like the guys that wear clothes.

00:38:44
All right. Panama Canal, we talked about it

00:38:47
briefly and I think we talked about it enough, so I'm going to

00:38:50
move on. Yeah.

00:38:52
Yeah, we talked about it, right? Yeah, we did.

00:38:53
Yeah, briefly. China and blah, blah, blah.

00:38:56
So I just don't think that that people realize that in the

00:38:59
agreement is we can act, we can use force.

00:39:03
Yeah. And, and if there's any evidence

00:39:05
at all that it's being tampered with by China or anybody else,

00:39:08
then we have the right to go down there.

00:39:10
I mean, right, We're the ones that.

00:39:11
Created it there, right, yes, but it's technically Panama and

00:39:14
and there was some sort of arrangement where we got out and

00:39:18
let them run it. So it's all a based on what

00:39:21
these agreements say, and I'm not going to lie, I haven't read

00:39:23
through them in detail, but what I based on my research, what I

00:39:27
understand is that we have the right to go down and use force

00:39:32
if necessary, if the security is threatened.

00:39:35
And I guarantee if China's got anything to do with it, our

00:39:38
security is threatened. Oh, sure, And that's what

00:39:40
Trump's saying and that and that's fine.

00:39:42
Let's investigate it. Don't yell at him yet.

00:39:44
He hasn't. It's not like he's sending a a

00:39:47
marching down through all the way to Panama with his army.

00:39:50
It's not like back, you know, like they people are so

00:39:53
reactive. Yeah, Donald is.

00:39:56
Chomping at the bit to get back in office and get some stuff

00:39:59
fixed, to get some stuff remedied.

00:40:01
You're not going to be bent over by Europe anymore, by NATO.

00:40:04
He's ready. And Panama's just one issue.

00:40:07
Let him do it. As soon as the military loads up

00:40:10
and heads down there, then assess why they're doing it.

00:40:13
But until then, people are losing it, Manny.

00:40:17
All right. Lastly, the Gulf of America.

00:40:20
I mentioned that, too. Yeah.

00:40:22
Are you for or against that? I I think I'm for it, yeah.

00:40:29
OK. Would you care to elaborate

00:40:31
because we're going to get some comments on this.

00:40:33
Well, I mean, you have America in Mexico, right?

00:40:37
And you got to tell yourself, you know, like in the world

00:40:39
view, which country's better, like which which country had

00:40:43
contributed more to the world, you know, in positive light.

00:40:47
And I think the winner of that or whatever experts, you know,

00:40:50
let's say you know, diagnosis, like whoever gets to get the

00:40:53
name should put that in conclusion.

00:40:56
You know, so there could be a whole panel of people that get

00:40:59
together from around the world and they decide which country

00:41:04
which like we all know that. I don't even think they need a

00:41:06
panel. If that's the determining factor

00:41:09
on who gets the name, the Gulf, that circle of water, then we

00:41:15
know who's gonna win that. Yeah, it's right.

00:41:18
It's like. But I like that you're tossing

00:41:19
Mexico right under the bus. But but it's somebody else made

00:41:22
a good point. It's North America and South

00:41:24
America. So why would how about Gulf of

00:41:26
America's? Gulf of America's.

00:41:29
Huh. And then everybody's included

00:41:30
it, right? Well, then, you know, I mean

00:41:32
Mexico, they had that name for a long time.

00:41:35
Well, Mexico is North America. So Ron, you would want to wipe

00:41:38
that away from like the history? What?

00:41:40
Gulf of Mexico? Yeah.

00:41:41
You know, you said you wanted to wipe it.

00:41:42
Away. No, I, I.

00:41:43
Said I'm not. Sure.

00:41:44
I didn't I say, hey, we should have a a panel to like a a

00:41:47
consensus, but you. Said you were for it, you

00:41:49
thought. You were.

00:41:49
Yeah, well, I'm I'm for it, but like for.

00:41:51
You want a panel you want to see.

00:41:52
Some yeah, I want you want debate census.

00:41:54
Yes, you. Want debate?

00:41:55
You want people yelling and screaming?

00:41:57
And no until we figure. Out because it's fair, right?

00:41:59
Because you got to stay in the grade.

00:42:02
Yeah, yeah. Oh, I mean, I that's why we're

00:42:04
talking about it. It's it's so silly that it's

00:42:07
not. Correct.

00:42:09
Yeah. People want to make this out to

00:42:11
be some big deal. And it's like, do you really

00:42:13
think that that's his number? It's not, no.

00:42:17
Why is he making his priority? He's not.

00:42:18
He said it at a damn press conference.

00:42:21
It, it probably just came to him and he thought it'd be funny and

00:42:23
it was. And it just, he knows.

00:42:26
I told, I've told a few liberal friends and I've told everybody

00:42:29
on the show he knows how to what to press your buttons.

00:42:33
Yeah, he does. Yeah, he's really good at that.

00:42:35
He's. Great at it.

00:42:37
And, you know, I, I think sometimes I'm good at sometimes

00:42:40
I'm not. And I'll try and learn from him

00:42:42
people, but he is. And he and he knew as soon as

00:42:46
that came to his mind, he's like, oh, this is going to be

00:42:47
good, right. OK, we'll move on from that.

00:42:50
All right. So, so let's that's the Trump

00:42:52
expansion, Manny and Ryan point of view.

00:42:55
Yeah, you're for Greenland, you're for a panel for the Gulf

00:43:00
of America to decide who contributed more, which is

00:43:05
hilarious. You, you are with me with the, I

00:43:09
mean, Panama Canal. If, if there's a threat, you got

00:43:12
to go and then Canada. You want to remain Canada.

00:43:15
And I'm, I'm impartial. If this new guy thinks that it's

00:43:18
would benefit and we can make this one big place.

00:43:22
I, I don't know. I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm also OK

00:43:24
with him staying in Canada. What I'm, what I don't love is

00:43:28
that I think that they are the opposite from what a lot of us

00:43:32
want politically and social programs and this universal

00:43:37
health care that people want so badly.

00:43:40
It's not as simple as that. I've talked about it.

00:43:42
I'm not going to get into it again, Manny, I apologize unless

00:43:44
you really want to talk about it.

00:43:46
But I've gotten into it before and I've said, look, I don't

00:43:49
just free health care, it's not free.

00:43:52
Somebody's paying for it. Whether it's everybody with

00:43:56
taxes, whether it's the rich with taxes, which is wrong.

00:44:00
You can't just take from people that make more than you lose

00:44:03
incentive. I've gone over this whole thing

00:44:06
in Canada, you know, people, Canadians have told me, but

00:44:08
friends of mine, they're like, look, you know, it took me two

00:44:11
days to get into treatment, to get to get care for most things.

00:44:16
And, and that's not good. And that was my experience in,

00:44:19
in the UK, it took me 3 days. I, they put me in a bed and shot

00:44:23
me up with painkillers and every morning drew blood and threw and

00:44:27
then they're like, the doctor will be in sometime and never

00:44:30
came. The third day I had a doctor

00:44:32
come up finally and go, hey, what's the problem?

00:44:36
I'm in there three days on painkillers, eating their crap

00:44:39
food. Yeah, in in a hospital with in

00:44:42
the renal ward with people on dialysis because they were out

00:44:46
of beds. And I was in the renal ward with

00:44:48
these poor people who were dying.

00:44:50
Yeah. In America you can go to a

00:44:52
family practice and get prescription within an hour.

00:44:55
Yeah. And whether people think the big

00:44:58
pharma this and that, what it's not the point.

00:45:00
The point is, yes, you will have a bill for it.

00:45:03
But if you have good insurance, if you have this, I mean, I, I

00:45:06
submitted insurance claims earlier and they're legit.

00:45:10
I don't understand why people think it's up to everybody else

00:45:13
to pay for their shit. That's my problem, man.

00:45:15
Yeah. Do you agree or disagree?

00:45:16
No, I agree with you man. I agree.

00:45:19
That's right, I do. I'm fired.

00:45:22
I get fired up about the universal healthcare thing.

00:45:23
I and people get so mad at me about it.

00:45:25
There is I had more butthurt comments from people about

00:45:28
universal healthcare. Anyway, So all right, moving on.

00:45:33
All you said to me when we again, we're talking about the

00:45:36
show, is that you wanted to bring up something about North

00:45:40
Korea. Oh yeah, yeah, right.

00:45:43
Anything about North Korea I'm very anxious to hear.

00:45:47
So have did. Did you know right that Kim, Kim

00:45:51
Jong Un or Kim Jong No? It's UN.

00:45:53
Yeah. Bill was the old the the father.

00:45:54
Yeah. It's so many variations.

00:45:56
Some. Yeah, you can.

00:45:57
Yeah. There you go.

00:45:58
Little rocket man, right? Yeah, Trump called him there.

00:46:00
Yeah, Little. Rocket Man, right?

00:46:02
So apparently, did you know that that they made an alliance with

00:46:05
Russia? I was taking a sip of my drink.

00:46:07
No, for sure I I heard that, but I don't know to what extent.

00:46:11
I just heard that there was some sort of connection there so.

00:46:14
Yeah, so apparently this is really recent, like within the

00:46:18
past month or so, North Korea sent 10 troops to go support

00:46:23
to Russia to support in the the Duness region.

00:46:29
Right. Yeah, that's, yeah, that's the

00:46:30
big region that they that we helped Ukraine throw bombs into

00:46:34
missiles. Yeah.

00:46:35
Yeah, yeah, and, and apparently, right.

00:46:38
North Korea, right. They're stuck on World War 2

00:46:41
tactics, Yeah. So they're actually, they're

00:46:44
actually losing. Is that like kamikaze or is that

00:46:47
World War One? No, I'm serious.

00:46:49
War 2. War 2.

00:46:51
That was because, yeah, I said yeah, OK, I'm right.

00:46:54
You don't know I got one right. Give me some credit.

00:46:57
No. Yeah, you you just have credit

00:46:58
kamikaze. But but no, no, Ryan, like so

00:47:01
like think about it, right, Like you're you're running Windows 2

00:47:05
in 2025, right? You don't like your old ways, Is

00:47:08
not. Well, North Korea doesn't know

00:47:09
shit. And and they're getting

00:47:10
shredded, dude, I'm shredded by. Ukraine just.

00:47:14
But does Russia care? I don't think so.

00:47:17
So that's the. Issue And you wanna know why?

00:47:21
So the Russia, the Russian army, they're actually trying to cover

00:47:24
up and run. Do you wanna know how?

00:47:27
Yes. Many.

00:47:28
OK. All right.

00:47:29
So this is how, Right. Just tell me.

00:47:30
So for every dead North Korean, that's the affiliate with

00:47:34
Russia, right? OK.

00:47:35
They're burning the faces of them.

00:47:37
To who is Russia? Russia themselves.

00:47:40
Yeah, they're they're burning the faces taking.

00:47:41
The bodies back. Yes, taking them back, burning

00:47:44
them and trying to hide the evidence that, you know, they're

00:47:46
Allegiant with North Korea. Couldn't you tell another way

00:47:50
besides the face? You could, you could, but I

00:47:52
guess they want to like, you know, kind of stay away from

00:47:54
like the immediate media. Pressure, you know, but

00:47:57
apparently it got to you. How did it get to you?

00:47:59
What are yours? Do you have sources or what have

00:48:02
you seen? Well, you know, for me, you

00:48:04
know, being military or being my ex military, you know, I've, I

00:48:07
have to keep up on the military things.

00:48:09
You probably learn like where you go for your information.

00:48:11
Yes, yes, correct. From from other podcasts and you

00:48:14
know, from, you know. Things you right?

00:48:18
Credible. Credible.

00:48:19
Things you trust. Yes, Yeah.

00:48:20
Yeah, podcasters mainly. Well, and I trust, I trust that

00:48:25
military people would take the time to assess credibility.

00:48:31
So I, I believe you about this. I, I don't know.

00:48:34
I mean, North Korea is fucked up.

00:48:35
I mean, they're, we all know that.

00:48:37
It's sad, right? I actually feel bad.

00:48:38
For them. But why?

00:48:39
Why are they, you know, why are they?

00:48:41
Why would they? I mean, it's silly.

00:48:43
Of course they're going to do it.

00:48:44
But what's in it for Kim Jong? Is it protection?

00:48:47
Well, that's the thing. We don't know it.

00:48:49
It could be, you know, but. There has to be something.

00:48:51
Yeah, quid pro quo just for that, you know?

00:48:53
It's not going to send 10 troops.

00:48:54
No, of course not. If Russia's not going to give

00:48:56
him something. Yeah, of course not.

00:48:58
Well, what if Russia like stabs in the back and then all of a

00:49:00
sudden North Korea is? Like yeah, the.

00:49:02
Fire missiles error. Like I was going to do a story

00:49:05
the other night. I'll tell you real quick, just

00:49:07
because the the world is about to kill each other too.

00:49:11
Australia is now pissed at Russia because they apparently

00:49:15
and and I think, look, I'm not defending Russia.

00:49:18
You know, the Aussies can piss me off, but there are either

00:49:21
allies over Russia, but they apparently there's a guy, that

00:49:25
Australian guy who went up, he's a teacher and he went to go

00:49:28
volunteer to fight for Ukraine and he was captured by the

00:49:32
Russians. And now there's word of mouth

00:49:37
that's saying this guy was killed by the Russians.

00:49:39
Oh wow. And as a POW and the Australian

00:49:45
people are freaking out. Oh, if this is true, we will use

00:49:48
whatever tactics necessary. And I'm like, OK, no, you're not

00:49:52
Australia, whatever. But tell me if I'm wrong here.

00:49:55
This is a good debate. He volunteered to fight, you

00:49:59
know, for the for Ukraine. Like if he if Russia kills him

00:50:04
as an enemy because it's a war crime to kill APOW is that it?

00:50:08
Or why? Why is Australia like if you

00:50:12
hurt him? Yeah, he's fighting for Ukraine.

00:50:14
That's their enemy. They're in the war.

00:50:15
He did it on his own. Yeah, I think that's, that might

00:50:17
be a little too much because of Russia, right.

00:50:19
Even though they're a big like they have, they have, you know,

00:50:22
strong military, say they have a strong military, right?

00:50:25
Yeah, Yeah. They still have to adhere to

00:50:27
Geneva Conventions, which is like a set of laws, you know,

00:50:30
governed by, you know. And that's one of them.

00:50:33
Well, I would. I would like to.

00:50:34
I would like to believe so. That you don't kill.

00:50:37
POW unless, unless Russia has gotten to that evil, you know,

00:50:40
sure, that level of evilness. And that may be what he was

00:50:42
talking about. Okay, You're supposed to not

00:50:44
kill your POW, correct? Kill one of our people.

00:50:48
But you know, who knows, maybe you tried to escape, maybe you

00:50:52
bit in the guy's fight and there's still no excuse.

00:50:54
But I'm just saying it's it's it just seemed to me, I I just.

00:50:57
But look, then Australia's pissed at Russia.

00:50:59
North Korea's with it's a mess, dude.

00:51:01
Our whole world is, is crazy. Yeah, it is.

00:51:04
And then you have this ceasefire in the Middle East.

00:51:07
How long is that going to last? And Trump and Biden are like, I

00:51:10
did it. No, I did it.

00:51:11
And it's like, how about we focus on the issue?

00:51:14
Yeah, I just heard about that ceasefire.

00:51:15
Yeah, the. Ceasefire.

00:51:16
All those people died for no reason, you know.

00:51:19
Well, but that's what happens. It's a it's a rotation.

00:51:22
And I mean like, like the sun. I mean, it's just or the, the

00:51:26
moon and us going around the sun.

00:51:28
And and that's what's happening is that there will be a peace

00:51:31
treaty and all of a sudden somebody will piss the other one

00:51:34
off like this. This was started up again by an

00:51:37
attack by Hamas. Not this isn't pro Israel.

00:51:39
It's a fact that Hamas attacked and killed like 1000 Israelis at

00:51:45
a party. Something's going to happen.

00:51:49
Israel has the right to defend itself.

00:51:51
Israel has the right to to retaliate.

00:51:53
Tell me I'm I'm anti Muslim and anti Palestinian all you want.

00:51:56
That's the truth. If it was reversed, I'd say the

00:51:59
same thing. What I don't like is that Hamas

00:52:02
is run by Hamas is a terrorist organization.

00:52:05
Yeah, we all know that. I am not OK with terrorists.

00:52:08
No, anybody should not be, you know.

00:52:11
Yeah. So I'm not it's not anti Muslim,

00:52:14
it's anti extremist Muslim. And right now people, the

00:52:19
argument from people that are pro Palestinian in this conflict

00:52:23
is that is the Israeli government is acting like

00:52:26
terrorists, even though they're not technically called a

00:52:28
terrorist organization. Yeah.

00:52:29
And that's that that's gets us off topic, but it's like we've

00:52:32
done all night. Hopefully this is interesting to

00:52:35
all of you, but that's the point.

00:52:36
Yes. It's, it's a everything's,

00:52:39
everything's a mess. It's all over the place.

00:52:42
Fucking Panama. You're talking about Panama.

00:52:44
You know who who's out of this whole thing in Chile, in

00:52:47
Argentina, They're way down there going, oh, thank God,

00:52:50
we're not near these any even the Thai people in the in

00:52:54
Malaysia and all that, they're like, Oh my God, let's just stay

00:52:56
here, do our thing. Yeah, it's, it's a mess, dude.

00:53:01
But all right, so North Korea joins Russia and you think

00:53:07
they're just tossing the North Koreans?

00:53:10
Yeah, Frontline. Yeah, kind of like cannon

00:53:12
fodder. You have you ever heard that

00:53:13
term? No.

00:53:15
Yeah, cannon fodder. Fodder.

00:53:17
Like FODDER fodder. Yes, cannon fodder.

00:53:21
Where's cannon fodder? So it's it's a term, right?

00:53:23
It's kind of a derogative term used, you know, like military

00:53:28
term. But, but pretty much, you know,

00:53:30
it's the, it's the fact that you're so worthless, right, That

00:53:34
you're expendable and worthless in a sense that, you know, let's

00:53:37
say back in the old days, right, there's a cat, you have a big

00:53:40
ball and a big cannon, right, right.

00:53:42
And so you're, you're just going the front lines and you're dare

00:53:46
to take the, the hit, the initial hit, and this cannonball

00:53:49
will take out, you know, like 20 or 30 troops, OK, you know,

00:53:53
right. And so that that determinate,

00:53:55
you know, it's derivative. Cannon fodder, OK.

00:53:57
Correct. Yeah, because you're just,

00:53:58
you're like lower than germ. But but yeah, so again,

00:54:04
interesting. Why would North Korea agree to

00:54:07
it? To just make their people cannon

00:54:09
fodder, right, They say. Right.

00:54:11
Correct. Now, Ryan.

00:54:12
Now it's. Yeah, I actually feel really,

00:54:14
really bad for North Korea. You won't know why you feel bad

00:54:17
for Yeah, Yeah, I do. I do, man.

00:54:19
I I feel really bad. Oh, we got to hear this.

00:54:21
They're not equipped. They're they're so untrained,

00:54:24
like they're, they're, they shouldn't be even like even

00:54:28
fighting right now because they're, they're using really

00:54:30
old tactics and you won the one. You feel bad for the North

00:54:32
Korean civilians and and military.

00:54:35
And military, mainly, yeah. But you realize that it's

00:54:38
because of the leadership. Yeah, because, right, because

00:54:40
right now I could take out like me.

00:54:42
Sure, Twenty of them I'm sure. Easily, I'm sure.

00:54:45
And with one hand. Right.

00:54:46
But that's, that's their leadership.

00:54:48
That's how messed up they are. And here's an example.

00:54:50
Right, right. Here's an example, so I saw a

00:54:53
video which is circulating, which is true, right?

00:54:56
So there's 3 N Koreans, right? Never seen a drone before, never

00:54:59
ever seen a drone. And they look up with their AKS

00:55:02
pouring up in the sky, right? And so picture this in your

00:55:05
mind, right? Three met three soldiers in the

00:55:08
triangle formation, right? And the pilot, the guy that's

00:55:11
piling the drone, he's Ukrainian and he's messing with them.

00:55:16
He the drones flying under their legs, buzzing the ears and

00:55:19
jetting off right? Just just messing with them,

00:55:21
right? And this is up in this is not

00:55:23
North Korea. They're.

00:55:24
Yeah, this is. Yeah, this is part.

00:55:26
Of the North. Korea.

00:55:27
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The the Ukraine Russian war.

00:55:29
Right, right, right. They're out there.

00:55:30
OK. Correct.

00:55:31
And so, so so this is a real video.

00:55:34
So the, the drone right, flies right next to to one of the, the

00:55:39
North Korean soldiers and the soldiers shoot his own man

00:55:42
trying to shoot down the oh geez.

00:55:44
Yeah. And you can see like well on the

00:55:46
V you can see they're. Just not Yeah, they're not

00:55:48
trained. They're not, Yeah, their

00:55:49
equipments, whatever. Like, I, I feel, I feel sorry

00:55:53
for the people who are brainwashed, which is all of

00:55:55
them. Yeah.

00:55:56
And that's what we forget sometimes is that that these

00:55:59
people are are told this and told that and they're grown.

00:56:01
They're forced to fight, forced to fight.

00:56:03
And then they have to have a picture of this damn guy, their

00:56:06
leader on their above their mantle.

00:56:07
I saw on a documentary. And Can you believe that?

00:56:10
It's just that that place is really strange.

00:56:14
I mean, so it's out of a horror movie.

00:56:15
It's so weird. It's it's eerie.

00:56:17
So Ron, you, you, you want someone?

00:56:19
You want to know something funny?

00:56:21
I wonder if a liberal thing trumped like that.

00:56:23
I mean, it's it. There's no comparison though,

00:56:26
so. But like, you know, in theory.

00:56:29
Yeah, in theory they would love to to say that.

00:56:31
I know, but but I've never seen anything like it when I watched

00:56:35
a couple documentaries. Yeah, it's just the way, I mean,

00:56:38
the whole place, the curfew and the whole city, there's not one

00:56:43
move. There's not anything moving for

00:56:44
a certain amount of time. It's just so eerie.

00:56:48
And that they have any kind of nuclear power at all is scary.

00:56:51
The Kim Jong's, the family is just crazy.

00:56:55
Anyway, so OK, you taught me something.

00:56:58
Cannon fodder and and North Korea.

00:57:02
I'll have to look into this as the war continues on.

00:57:05
I, I, I think Donald nips it in the butt here pretty soon.

00:57:08
I think he's going to stop giving money to Zelensky in

00:57:11
Ukraine, which needs to happen. And he's going to tell Putin,

00:57:14
come on, dude, do you need this land?

00:57:16
I'll, I'll get control of fucking NATO, which is one of

00:57:20
the reasons that that Russia's pissed is because NATO moved in

00:57:23
all these missiles and pointed it at Russia.

00:57:26
And I'm not defending Russia, but that's true.

00:57:30
Maybe some kind of deal like hey Russia, send your best AK-40

00:57:33
sevens and vodka to the American.

00:57:35
Sure deal if there's vodka involved.

00:57:38
I went to a liquor store manning the I was about to have.

00:57:41
We had a guest on, I don't know if you saw the episode, we had a

00:57:44
Russian woman, lovely woman on Alina.

00:57:47
I'd like to have her back and I was going to surprise her with

00:57:50
some Russian vodka. And I went to the liquor store,

00:57:53
I always frequent, always frequent daily days now.

00:57:57
And I went up there and the guy looked at me and he said, you

00:57:59
know what? We don't sell that shit here.

00:58:01
We're not selling anything rushed until that conflict is

00:58:03
over. Oh, really?

00:58:04
Vodka. I mean, that you want good vodka

00:58:07
and people. He put it all in the back and he

00:58:09
said if someone asked for it, he would do it.

00:58:12
But it's all, it's all sold out and and he won't order anymore

00:58:15
until this is over. Yeah, right.

00:58:16
It's it's that big it. Makes you think you're right.

00:58:18
The the price of war makes you think, you know, Yeah.

00:58:22
What missing? Not getting the Russian vodka.

00:58:24
Well, how much it affects? Everybody.

00:58:26
No, it makes everybody. But I just want people to

00:58:29
understand that I don't think the Ukraine is completely

00:58:32
innocent. I don't think Zelensky some some

00:58:35
St. and I think that there's a lot more to it than just that

00:58:40
They don't want the land. I don't believe that, you know,

00:58:43
if they took it, great. That's what everybody's saying.

00:58:46
And I don't think that's true. I think there's more to it than

00:58:48
that. Russia's how much land has more

00:58:52
than anybody in a lot. They don't need Ukraine.

00:58:56
And I think that's, and I said this on a previous show, so I

00:58:59
won't say it anymore, but there's more to it there.

00:59:01
But of course, now you bring in North Korea and it's a whole

00:59:04
other thing. So apparently Australia, if this

00:59:07
guy's killed as a gun guy, what do you are you like saving up

00:59:11
for new guns? Do you?

00:59:13
I can't wait to get the new whatever.

00:59:15
Or is it kind of like a? Little bit of everything, right?

00:59:18
Yeah. I just don't have that passion.

00:59:20
Yeah, when you're, I guess when you live, when you have this

00:59:22
like, I guess like. The knowledge of.

00:59:25
What? Yeah, a very passionate hobby

00:59:27
like mine, you know? Yeah.

00:59:29
You'll see one thing you wanted and you hear about, like this

00:59:32
new gun that's coming out right. And you're like, oh, hey, I have

00:59:35
to have this, you know. But for me, you know, I'm a, I'm

00:59:39
also a collector, you know, I'm, you know, I'm an amateur, you

00:59:42
know, competition shooter. Yeah.

00:59:44
So, you know, and I want when I hear something like something

00:59:47
new, I'm like, oh, hey, what's that?

00:59:49
Yeah. You want it?

00:59:50
Yeah. New gun.

00:59:50
Oh, hey, what's that? Gotta have it, yeah.

00:59:53
You know, well, that's cool. So you've got some more than.

00:59:56
I have, yeah. Cool.

00:59:57
Yeah, my latest addition is the MP5, you know.

01:00:00
Wherever the hell that is. No.

01:00:02
Well, isn't that. Your viewers would know what it

01:00:05
is. Isn't an MP.

01:00:07
What am I thinking of? That's like a a file name MP4,

01:00:09
right? Right.

01:00:11
Well, essentially, yeah. OK, but that's not what we're

01:00:14
talking. No, it's not.

01:00:15
What? We're talking what is this gun?

01:00:17
Is it a a rifle? Is it a pistol?

01:00:19
Well, it's, it's well, you would think like initially, right, you

01:00:24
would think it's a submachine gun, but in like correct,

01:00:27
correct term. It's called APCC, which is a

01:00:30
pistol caliber carbine. OK.

01:00:32
Yeah, yeah. So it's a pistol?

01:00:37
No, it's a submachine. Gun.

01:00:39
You literally just use the word pistol.

01:00:41
Yeah. And well, the reason why I say

01:00:43
this because you know, the, you know, the ATF is watching and

01:00:45
so, yeah, you have to use the correct terminology in America,

01:00:49
even though it, you know, the world might think it's something

01:00:51
else. But yeah, that's why, Yeah.

01:00:53
But yeah, submachine gun. Well, good.

01:00:54
I I hope to get out and and do some more shooting just to, to

01:00:59
sharpen my skills. So I don't anybody comes here, I

01:01:04
don't shoot you in the in the ear.

01:01:06
I shoot you or you need to be shot.

01:01:08
Yeah, stop the threat, you know? Stop the threat and it and it

01:01:11
look, that changes. If you, if any, the story you

01:01:14
told me happened at anybody's home, whoever's the homeowner,

01:01:18
shoot that I mean that that isn't is my opinion.

01:01:21
If you're threatening, you're in your own home, that's different

01:01:27
and I'm very, very pro Do what you need to do if you if you're

01:01:31
at home and somebody's threatening you, especially if

01:01:34
you have a family. Yeah, that's why I like about

01:01:35
Texas. We have that castle doctrine.

01:01:37
Yeah. Yeah, Yep.

01:01:38
And I, I don't disagree with it. The issue with guns for me and

01:01:43
we'll we'll save this for another conversation is outside

01:01:45
the home and carrying in your vehicle carrying it just open

01:01:49
carry and the credentials you should have in order to do that

01:01:53
help much. You should have how much

01:01:55
training? How much should you test should

01:01:57
do this should do that just to be able to open carry.

01:01:59
Many people that don't know how to shoot a gun shouldn't open

01:02:02
carry and that's my opinion even though it's allowed.

01:02:06
So that's a different discussion.

01:02:08
But OK, so you got some toys. All right, all right, yeah, I'm

01:02:12
going to end tonight. I you know I can sit here and

01:02:15
bullshit with you forever. Yeah, no, of course.

01:02:17
But we have to end quickly and I probably should do it now.

01:02:21
But I got to mention this last show.

01:02:25
Manny. Yeah.

01:02:26
Serious here. I don't have.

01:02:27
I don't have any more. It was Scotch left.

01:02:30
Last show we talked about a particularly young woman.

01:02:33
Yes. And again, I should just tease

01:02:36
you guys and make you go listen. Listen to this episode.

01:02:40
Yeah, but Manny fell in love. It was beautiful, the story.

01:02:46
I I tried to make my own ending to it, but he didn't agree with

01:02:50
it. We'll see what happens.

01:02:50
I still. I still like my ending, but he

01:02:54
went off to the Army and she went off to the Army Reserves.

01:02:57
Is that right? Correct.

01:02:58
Yeah. Where are the Army Reserves

01:02:59
versus where you went overseas, Right?

01:03:02
Well, yeah, I was active duty army.

01:03:04
Your active duty. She's reserves.

01:03:06
Where are the reserves? Where was she at?

01:03:08
So I forget. So I get to mix up with National

01:03:10
Guard. I don't know if they worked like

01:03:12
every weekend or like one time a month or so.

01:03:15
Oh, I think. That's what I thought of

01:03:16
National Guard. So she wasn't reserved, she was

01:03:18
National Guard. That's different.

01:03:19
Right. No, she was reserved.

01:03:20
Coast Guard, Yeah. Not Coast Guard.

01:03:21
Yeah. Yeah.

01:03:23
OK. She was reserved.

01:03:25
Yes. Not National Guard.

01:03:26
Yes. Where?

01:03:28
Do you know where she was at? No, you don't.

01:03:31
Even know I don't even know this.

01:03:33
Is part of the story, ladies and gentlemen.

01:03:34
He didn't even know where she was.

01:03:36
He joined the Army because it's like our paths may cross and.

01:03:38
And we gave him a hard time. And it's a story about.

01:03:41
I mean, they they knew each other in middle school.

01:03:43
And he looked at her one day and she looked up and it was like,

01:03:46
love at first sight. Yeah, he's still got the

01:03:49
butterflies in his tummy for her, and it's very sweet.

01:03:53
And so we reached out and back then our we were relatively

01:03:57
well. Season 3 wasn't that new, but

01:04:00
we've grown. The show is doing better.

01:04:03
And so maybe our reach is better.

01:04:04
And somebody listening now might help find her.

01:04:09
Are you allowed to say her first name again?

01:04:11
No, I'm there for time. OK, you'd rather not.

01:04:14
Well, maybe that's going to make it more difficult for us, but

01:04:17
it's fine. Fair enough.

01:04:18
Let's just say it starts with AM.

01:04:19
An MI think that's what you did last time.

01:04:21
OK. An M and your name starts with

01:04:24
an M too. How, how appropriate.

01:04:26
So if anybody go back and listen to 313, it's a romantic story.

01:04:30
And if we can try and get these two kids reunited on the show,

01:04:34
preferably, then God, that would be so amazing to have like a

01:04:39
walk in or I surprise you. I don't think about this off the

01:04:45
air that you are currently single.

01:04:47
Yes, still ladies, he's a he's a big teddy bear and he he's a

01:04:53
very, very genuine person and I respect the hell out of him, but

01:04:58
he can also beat some ass and so.

01:05:00
Yeah. I mean the total package, right,

01:05:03
buddy? Ladies, I'm just I'm just

01:05:08

01:05:13
show. We're gonna look love connection

01:05:16
one way or the other. This other girl that know what

01:05:18
she's missing. I remember right, you turn into

01:05:20

01:05:34
Like, come on, no girl's going to want to go out.

01:05:38

True, I saw that, and I and I, I did.
