94 segmentsThis is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. You have reached the Michael Bari Weiss podcast, and I'm honored to have you here. If I could just take a few seconds to tell you a little bit about our show, how we do it, why we do it. We are big believers in American excellence. We are big believers in old-fashioned culture, treating a woman properly. being respectful to your parents, being attentive parents to our own kids. Those are the values that underpin more than party or anything else, everything that we do. And hopefully you hear that in every show that we put on. And in the process, hopefully we make you laugh a little bit as well. I want to say thanks to our show sponsor, Ray Breyer's, at The Pipeyard Inc. He buys and sells pipe. So if you've got a pipeline that you're abandoning, they'll come and rip it out and sell it. If you need to buy or sell pipe, this is my guy, you will talk to the top guy, and they will buy everything you have and loads of it. Thepipyard Inc.com. 409-788 pipe. 409-78 pipe. Turns out, at least according to my urologist, that all that talk about taking testosterone is bad for your prostate. That was based on one study that's been debunked. But you know what? Don't trust me. Do your own reading. Cross-reference. Learn more. Go to fixmylowtie.com. That's synergenics. That's who I use for my testosterone replacement. It makes me energetic.

Whether you write a check every month or it's on direct deposit or auto pay, you write a check to your insurance company for a reason. You could have spent that money on anything else. You made a good decision to hedge against bad things happen. And then it did. Hurricane, windstorm damage, hail damage, fire, smoke, water damage. And that insurance company, 10 states away, denied your claim, and they should not have, and you know it. Go to claimdenied.com. It's the Chad T. Wilson Law firm, and they will fight for you.

is on the air. Don't talk like one of them. You're not. Even if you'd like to be. To them, you're just a freak. Like me. I think he'll go on to defeat a very defective candidate, a candidate that believes in six genders, and he takes hits to Jesus Christ, and he's wearing a mask six months ago. Where's a guy? Anybody wearing a mask six months ago doesn't get it. And he's a vegan. He's a vegan in Texas. And you can't get elected as a vegan in Texas. Before we go further, I want to acknowledge that our trans community needs abortion care too. Defending trans Texans is something we have to do every day at the state capitol. And you better believe I'll be giving sermons on that too. So when I use the word woman, it should not be understood as an exhaustive term, but rather as a... as a lens through which to understand, examine, and interrogate patriarchal. Christian nationalists like to say this is a Christian nation. Not only is that historically inaccurate, not only is that theologically blasphemous. If this was truly a Christian nation, we would never make it a Christian nation because we know the table of fellowship is open to everybody, including our Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, and atheist makers. She's a super freak.
Should be cute. Church was really good today, wasn't it? Hold up, girl. I'm trying to get this 97 cent cigarette lip. Um, no, you're not supposed to say church was good. You're supposed to be like Beverly Bubba and say, God is good. Do you remember when I was baptized? Girl, you was not exactly baptized. If remember it served correctly, that's the day we went to Parkdale Mall, and you started jumping up and down in the fountains and took off your brazera, and then the police had to come in there and tase your ass until you fell out. And that's when you start speaking in tongues, okay? I don't remember that. Well, of course you don't you blackout, drank up. Girl, I took Watous to the church today. Something in orange called a cowboy church. Y'all heard of this here? Some white lady invited us and out. I really needed to stop at the dollar stove on the way home. So I just said, yes, honey, I go church child. It was a cowboy chair. Oh, it made me so nervous. I was afraid I had accidentally went to a cook-clay meeting, girl. I'm going to be honest. Everybody was very, very nice and polite and welcoming. There was not one racial issue, one Christianity issue. One issue about the way Watusi was dressed, her, quote unquote, her. Nobody raised the fuss about it. We was felt it welcomed. And I felt it like it was a good thing because, well, the Cowboys Church, I don't know y'all heard about this, but it's a big thing in earnest. People love to go there and they, I don't know what happened. It's rodeos and thing, but it was hot. Oh my God, I ain't going to no more outdoor churches until they get to past Halloween. I ain't playing that because I am very by nature dehydratiatorial. And people knows this about me. It's on my medical alert bracelet. But Cowboy Church was nice. It was nice hearing Michael Barry talk about that bank today. What does it what that bank was called? Go ahead on, girl. That's the first time I ever heard you, Expositor or anything. Cur. Yeah, the County National Bank. You know, a lot of people in Houston don't know this, but this man named Dr. Link, right here from Ernst. That's the street right over from my house. And he designed the Entomontrose neighborhood. Did y'all know that? I know Michael Bari Weiss know that. Michael Barry know everything that ever was needed to be known about Orange. Not what I'm supposed to do.
Oh, why do you stay, uh, remain comfortably seated, sit your ass down, everything will be fine, girl. Michael Bari Weiss had forgot about the county national bank of earners, girl. Okay, okay. A man has sued a North Dakota hospital after learning that back in 1988, the year of his birth, so what does that make him, 38 years old, he was switched at birth with another baby. His name is Jeremy Morrison. He says he always felt different than his family, and so he decided to get a DNA test, and he found out that his parents were not actually his parents. Can you imagine? CBS News with the story. It's been a roller coaster of emotions. Two years ago, the Morrison family received news that turned their world upside down. 36-year-old Jeremy Morrison says he was swapped at birth with Kyle Bylan, the only other baby born at Unity Medical Center in North Dakota on January 26, 1988. That's according to the lawsuit filed by the families in state court last week. Their baby announcements even appeared next to each other in a local newspaper. You would think with only two babies it wouldn't be too hard to get them to the right families. The discovery happened when Kyle took an at-home DNA test he received during a Christmas gift exchange. His results matching his DNA to Jeremy's aunt, whose DNA was already on Ancestry.com's registry. Match with both my aunts. matched with my mom who only had one kid then it turns out jeremy's DNA matched kyle's parents what is this moment like for you where you have a family you understood to be your family for over three decades and now you have new people in your life that are biologically related to you well i also have the family i created for myself too you know um My parents, Liz and Terry, taught me to be independent and to be resilient and that never let anything stop you in life. Both moms are still grappling with the revelation. Shock, disbelief. It felt surreal. I mean, it really didn't feel real until I met Kyle in person. It upsets me that the... Hospital is trying to pawn this off and say basically that, oh, nothing that really happened here. The hospital claims they no longer have the medical records from 1988, adding, while we deeply sympathize with the men and their families, we have found no evidence to support claims that Unity Medical Center or its staff were responsible for what occurred. Apology would be a nice start, you know. Realizing that they did make a mistake that there was only two babies there and they went home with the opposite's families, the hospital is 100% at fault. We didn't get to this.
uh when it happened but i've kept it in my stack and i don't want the week to end without it ben crump is a civil rights attorney that's what they call him he's a black guy who anytime something happens to a black person no matter if that person deserved it no matter if the person is an accident doesn't matter he rushes in and he has gotten rich off screaming racism and people have this false notion i have two law degrees i can say this just because somebody's a lawyer doesn't make them smart so He got on video to read a medical report out loud. And I want you, this is difficult. I mean, this is sad. It goes the gunshot wound of the head, the injury, proliferation of the left internal carrot. Subura. I'm looking at this word because I know. It's not a subduro artery, but it's. I've been with punt since day one. Mr. Michael Barry. I've been fighting acquisitions after acquisition. So the DNC is $2 million in debt. Democrat apathy is at its highest point in years. Their own data reporter at CNN is calling the party brand weak, week, week. Harold Ford Jr., former Democrat congressman, Kent explained the DSA. Robin Kelly's answer to a crisis of ideology is, quote, we know we have to win. That's their answer to how crazy they've become. Well, we just got to beat Trump. But you're going crazy. I know, but we got to beat Trump. The party is holding what Chuck Schumer himself called doomsday exercises. That's the backdrop. And then there's Jamie Raskin out campaigning, seeing huge surging enthusiasm for Democrat candidates all over America. And he wants you to know he sees no evidence of Republican activity anymore. None. The MAGA movement in his telling just doesn't exist anymore. You don't exist. He's been out there. He's been out on the hustings. He knows. He's seen it. There's no evidence. Congressman, have the House leadership, have Hakeem Jeffries or others or you participated in or held similar doomsday exercises, as Chuck Schumer termed them, that relate to the elections? Well, sure. We're talking about this kind of stuff all the time because, look, I'm out campaigning in the country, Casey, and I'm seeing huge surging enthusiasm for Democratic candidates all over America. I'm here with my friend Josh Riley right now, Blake Jenda Bean next. I'm in upstate New York. But we see no evidence of Republican activity anywhere. I don't even see MAGA hats anymore, which makes me afraid that they're just... focused on trying to undermine the election or take the election through some kind of strategic mischief. Anna Kasparian is a host at the Young Turks, not Fox News, not conservative talk radio, the Young Turks, a liberal organization. She's a Californian. She's lived under Gavin Newsom.
She calls it a complete nutter disaster out to lunch. Changes his ideology depending on what's fresh and hip. Prop 36 passed with 76% of the vote. That is Californians demanding a rollback of the soft on crime policies that led to crime going through the roof. Three quarters of Californians voted to repeal that nonsense. And Gavin Newsom has been pushing back against funding it. That's their guy. That's their candidate in 2028. I don't know about all that, but I will concede that Gavin Newsom's leadership in California has been a complete nutter disaster. As a Californian, I 100% have experienced. He's out to lunch, right? Like he changes his ideology depending on what he thinks is fresh and what's hip at any given moment. 76% of Californians voted in favor of something known as Prop 36, which is to roll back some of the soft on crime policies. That requires funding. He has been pushing back against adequately funding the efforts to essentially roll back those policies to ensure that people who... You're for his more pro-crime strategy. You're for the more pro-crime fighting strategy. Just to be clear. Absolutely. Okay, good. Okay, so that's important. So you think it's important to have the investments in fighting crime, okay? 100%. Because a big challenge amongst some of the left has been not supporting that in the past. So you're saying he's not, he's not doing enough to fight crime. I think the left wanted prison reform. The left wanted better police training. The left wanted real reforms where people aren't getting shot as they're running away from cops and unarmed. What we got instead is the premature closure of four prisons. Gavin Newsom is preparing to shut down the fifth state prison. As a result, the county prisons are full to the brim of inmates, basically. And then what they do is they... end up releasing people early because they don't have room for them. So Gavin Newsom, and that's just one of the issues I have with Gavin Newsom. Another issue is $24 billion in California taxpayer money gone. It was supposed to help the homeless. It didn't help the homeless. It's on funnel to all these nonprofits that squandered that money. The Democrat Socialists of America have a simple, clean argument. Western civilization is the problem. Pure and simple. Here's Bill Maher, who... is a traditional white liberal. And even he is now sounding the alarm. Guys, y'all are destroying the Democrat Party, and you're going to mess around and destroy America. I want to first of all say something about Western civilization. Kids, you don't know what the fuck it is. No, really, they think Western means white and white means bad. Kids, first of all, everything bad that white people did, people of color did it too. The Japanese before World War II and during World War II and Genghis Khan, and I could go on and on. You know, it's...
The left is very down on America, very down on the West. And it's ironic because the West has also given us everything that makes your life good here. Don't ask Billy Eilish or Chapel Rhone about what the Western values are, because they'll just say it's about oppression. But it's not about oppression. It's about rule of law. It's about respect for minorities. It's about democracy. It's about scientific inquiry. These are all good things that came from the Western world. I wish the schools would teach that again. JD Vance says they actually think Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud against the U.S. He doesn't say there's a suspicion, an allegation. They believe she did it. And he's talked to Steve Miller about it, and Steve Miller is fearless. Now they're trying to figure out the legal remedy. What do you actually do when you know a sitting member of Congress committed immigration fraud to get here? What are the tools? What is the law allow? That's where they are. And I would say, you don't stop. You do exactly what you do when Tony Romo gets pulled over if you think he's drunk driving, then charge him and take it to court. You don't say, well, he's a former Cowboys quarterback, and he's an announcer. I personally think that whole thing was dumb. But the point is, you enforce the law. And while we're at it, we could enforce the law against Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and Hillary Clinton. Yeah, so we actually think that Elon Musk Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America. And I talked to Steve Miller about this actually recently. We're trying to look at what the remedies are. That's the thing that we're trying to figure out is what are the legal remedies now that we know that she's committed immigration fraud. How do you go after her? How do you investigate her? How do you actually do the thing? How do you build a case? necessary to get some justice for the American people. There's a related issue, Benny, which is she has been at the center of a lot of the worst fraudsters in the Somali community. So do I know that Ilhan Omar was aware that the quality leering center was defrauding the American people? I'm not certain of it. But we at least need to investigate it because if people can commit wrongdoing without even the fear that they're going to be found out, that's a fundamental problem. So I'm worried about the immigration fraud. I'm also worried about what did Ilhan Omar know about what was happening in the Somali community and why was nobody looking into it until, frankly, Donald Trump. Everybody needs to be woke. Just say more woke than less woke. We haven't even discussed the Michigan Senate race hardly at all. There is a can, they've got a Democrat primary, and there is a candidate, Abdul El-Sayed. He's running for the Senate in Michigan. When Iran's Supreme Leader was killed, Abdul El-Sayed told his staff on an audio recording that got leaked that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today. They were really attached to the leader of Iran. That's what he said. About the Ayatollah, a man who has called for the death of all Americans, the man who funded the proxies who killed our people in Iraq. Ask a veteran of the Iraq war, the extent to which they were really fighting Iranis and Iranian-funded folks.
The people in Dearborn are sad because their leader, the leader of Iran, died. CNN brings Abdul El-Sayed, the Michigan Senate candidate, on State of the Union, one of their program, and asks him about it. And he says he doesn't want to comment on it. Oh, really? 20 weeks ago when Iran's supreme leader was killed, you told your staff, according to audio obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, quote, there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today, so like I just don't want to comment on Ali Khamenei at all, unquote. I thought that quote was interesting because the Ayatollah has killed tens of thousands of innocent Iranians, not to mention the proxies that Iran has funded that have killed innocent civilians all over the Middle East. Why were you worried about offending people who support the Ayatollah? Jake, on a day where we're mourning the loss of two more service members in a war we never should have fought, I think all of us ought to step back and ask whether or not everybody in Michigan, frankly, everybody in America shouldn't be sad about the fact that this president, backed by the prime minister of a foreign government, took us to a war we had no business fighting in. So yeah, I didn't want to comment on it then because it's a ridiculous pretext. And now you're asking me about the Ayatollah, who's dead, by the way, and you're not asking me about the service members who've died. You're not asking me about whether or not this war should have ever been fought. You're not asking me about whether or not... The costs that are being borne by Michiganers in the tax dollars we pay or the gas prices that are insane right now are worth it. And so, look, let's have a conversation based in Michigan. I'm running for Senate in Michigan. And I think here in Michigan, all of us are probably sad about the fact that we went to war that we never should have fought. I'd rather our money be spent here. I was specifically asking you about comments you didn't want to make because you didn't want to offend people in Dearborn, which is in Michigan. Then you've got John Fetterman, much like Bill Maher. He sounds like a Republican these days because the left has gotten so crazy he can't even bring himself to defend him. He has seen what Abdul El-Sayed is running on in Michigan, and he doesn't like it. He has sounded the alarm. Bernie Sanders, you're destroying this party. You are destroying it. He gets on CNN and says, Abdul is running to be the head of the emerging pro-Hamas wing of the Democrat Party. And then Abdul... Abdul El-Sayed says, well, he looks like Shrek. He's funny looking. So John Fetterman says, you can call me whatever you want. You're crazy. I mean, I was never, I never worked out in a male modeling. You know, yeah, I mean, you know, call me Senator Shrek, whatever. But, but this guy is really the Pontiac Graham Platner. And now he's really running to be, be the head of our emerging pro Hamas wing here in the party. So, so for me, politically. Some of the things that he said are done are unacceptable to me. I'm not really sure what I've really done or voted for that has offended the little guy so much. But vote overall right now. This is a serious game that we're engaging in. And these same people like Bernie Sanders and other people.
created the Graham Platner disaster. He was asked just this Sunday. He has no regrets. Yeah, I have no regrets supporting an accused rapist. I have no regrets supporting a guy with a Nazi tattoo on his chest and a guy that roughed up his ex-girlfriends. There's a level of arrogance and they believe they feel like they have some weird mandate. stop this now, call it out. And that's what I'm willing to do as a committed Democrat. So I think that's pretty reasonable. And I think it's more necessary if more people is willing to do that. Now let's go to Haley Stevens. She's nutter butters too. She's the Democrat woman who's running the Democrat primary against Abdul El-Sayed. And this thing is getting really, really nasty. Here's what she said about Abdul. As we know, the stakes of this race couldn't be higher. Costs continue to go up. Our health care, voting rights, civil rights, it's all on the line in addition to Social Security and Medicare. And if Mike Rogers wins this race, all goes by the wayside. Look, Michigan deserves a senator who can win and who can deliver. I'm the only one on this stage who has flipped a Republican seat. And I was named Michigan's most effective Democratic lawmaker in Congress because my only... focus is you. Abdul is running for celebrity. Republicans are propping up his campaign. And Mike Rogers just the other day said in a secret phone call that he makes it easier for him to win, that he's the one he wants to run against. Look, this isn't about the D.C. or New York influencer crowd. This is about putting Michigan first, and I've got the receipts to do that, which is why Governor Gretchen Whitmer and so many others are joining my campaign to win in November. Now we go to Harold Ford Jr. Harold Ford Jr. at one point thought he might become president. He was an up-and-coming Democrat congressman, light-skinned black guy, family in politics, well-spoken. He was going to be Barack Obama. And Fox has hired him to be the token Democrat, and they have him sit in and, you know, how all this works. So... He's sitting there listing what the Democrat Socialists of America are running on. No borders, no prisons, no police supporting Hamas. And says he doesn't understand what the appeal is. You don't understand why people like this. Van Jay Jones, he says, is one of the more thoughtful voices in the Democrat Party, and even he can't explain it. These, what you're going to hear right here are Democrats trying to figure out what happened. to their party. No borders, no prisons, no police, supporting Hamas. We've been saying this on the show, I've said it for a while. I'm Van Jay Jones, who I think is one of the more thoughtful voices and has been a leader in the party serving and working in the White House. I don't quite understand some of the appeal to what some of these guys are talking about. I understand the frustration, the economic frustration. I understand frustration with some of our policies in the Middle East over the years. or for that matter over the decades. But to say that supporting an organization that exacts and imposes violence on people because of their faith, to say that we don't want to have borders for our country and allow any and everyone to come in, even the worst of the worst, to say that you want no law enforcement and no place to put those who commit crimes, I don't know how that aligns or has ever aligned with the Democratic Party. Ideas are what went elections. I would point to, I would suggest to Bernie Sanders and others,
that if you look at the most recent polling data, you guys are looking at the polling data, which are the most reliable elections, where some of the progressives are winning these elections. You look at the recent polling data about how Democrats are faring right now in the national races for Congress. We're in a dead heat with Republicans. And if you listen to those independents and others and some Republicans, it's because they are afraid of this message. They are afraid of the socialist, communist wing of the party. Now, you may get a lot of excitement there, and I've been a part of a lot of rallies over my short time in politics. I grew up in a political family. I'm 56 years old, and I've seen anger turn into enthusiasm. But that enthusiasm is really predicated and really motivated around how are we going to solve world problems. No prisons, no borders, no police, supporting Hamas is not an answer to solving the economic challenges facing so many Americans. It's not a solution to a broken foreign policy. You've got the Michael Bari Weiss Show. We check in now with men for James Talarico. Real men standing for real change. Let's see what the men are up to. Okay, I'm only telling the circle this because we don't shame in here. We process. Saturday, I got destroyed. Gone. How did I even get home gone? I walked, it was four blocks, but spiritually, somebody should have taken my keys. And it snuck up on me. That's the thing. The first one was so innocent. Cold, pink, little bubbles. It went down like it forgave me for everything. So I had another. By the third, I was holding Braxton face in my hand, telling him he was the most emotionally available man in that entire parking lot. And I meant it. But that is not a sober sentence. I texted my ex. The fizz reminds me of us. I don't even know what that means. I ate the cherry and I wept because it was so red and so sweet and it asked nothing of me. The bartender learned my name by the end. He was so proud of me. And I woke up at 4 a.m. fully dressed, one lash gone, heart absolutely racing. And I thought, this is it. This is my rock bottom. Three Shirley temples. I had three Shirley temples. I would die for James Talarico. Men for James Talarico. Real men, real change. Tiny bubbles. Tiny bubble. And a wine. And the wine. Make me a happy.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been on Twitter talking about members of Congress going missing. Not just Mitch McConnell, who we don't even know if he's still alive. I don't believe he is. There was another member, she says, who was just gone for four months. No whereabouts, no transparency. Nobody told anybody anything. This is supposed to be our government. She says she doesn't understand how this is even legal. This is a sitting member of the United States Congress who she's crazy. Let's get that straight. Raising the alarm that her colleagues are just disappearing. And no one is required to say where they are or why. By the way, she's actually right on this point. The fact that it took Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to say it. Oh, because we couldn't speak ill of the clubby atmosphere of John Thune and Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham. Oh, no, no, no. We couldn't dare criticize the club. People can just go missing without explanation. Not just Mitch McConnell. You had another member here that was just gone for four months and didn't tell anyone where they were, no whereabouts, no transparency. I mean, this is... I don't even know how this is legal. I really don't even know how this is legal. Things do happen, you know, people get into medical incidents. If you're in the hospital, you're in the hospital, but I do think that there should be some sort of, there's a line here. And I think almost everyone can agree that it's been crossed. This is not normal. This is not normal. at all. Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader, the only way we're going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the dreamers, the illegals, all of them. And then he says the quiet part out loud. The ultimate goal is to get a path to citizenship for all 11 million illegal aliens here because once that happens, they'll never lose another election. The only way we're going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the dreamers, and all of them. Because our ultimate goal is to help the dreamers, but get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented. There are here. And we revisit Joe Biden's open border and how it still affects America today. A woman in El Paso pleads guilty for her role in smuggling illegal alien children from Mexico into the U.S. when Biden left the border open. She and other members of the human smuggling operation would give the kids THC-laced candy to sedate them. Oh, yeah. Yeah, classy people here. KTSM TV in El Paso with the story. El Paso woman has pleaded guilty to smuggling unaccompanied migrant children into the U.S. and allegedly using candy laced with THC to sedate her victims.
According to court documents, 33-year-old Diane Guadian and three other members of a human smuggling organization brought unaccompanied migrant children between the ages of 5 and 13 illegally from Juarez. The Justice Department says a group would use fake documents showing the children belong to them. Once inside the U.S., the children were brought to El Paso documents, say during one smuggling event, a child was taken to a local hospital and treated for THC poisoning. Guadian pleaded guilty to four counts of aiding and abetting, bringing migrants without authorization for profit. She faces a minimum penalty of five years in prison and a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison. And one of Guadian's co-defendants, Manuel Valenzuela, also was sentenced on July 1st to five years in prison for his role in the child smuggling scheme. Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, you know, Mark Zuckerberg left California. These folks have left and come to mostly Texas, some of them Tennessee, some of them in Florida. In Rogan's case, he came to Austin. And this is just Joe Rogan talking about having left California to come to Texas, and now that same mindset that he fled, people are trying to make, they're trying to California my Texas. I think he says it pretty well. A lot of people, especially coastal elites, I would like to say, like people, coastal snobs, they have this idea of it being like filled with rednecks and ignorant people and foolish people. Yeah. Not that way at all. Especially Austin. Austin is like one of the most like liberal, easygoing, progressive cities. Yeah. But, like, even the progressives here, they're, like, more reasonable. It's, like, down to earth. Yeah, they're not like extremism, right? Well, they're definitely more crazy than they were 20 years ago when I first started coming here. Okay. But way less crazy than, like, liberals in L.A. Yeah. Or liberals in New York. Just where they're, where it's just extreme, right? Like, protests and all these, yeah. Well, it's like, there's a saying about Austin, keep Austin weird and surrounded. And surrounded? Yeah. What is the and surrounded? Surrounded by red people. Like it's all red states around you and it's this pocket of blue that's in the center of this red state. I think that's good for everybody. Yeah. I think that's good. It's a balance. And the liberals that want to turn Texas blue like don't.
You're going to ruin it. You're going to ruin it for you, too. You don't get it. Like, balance is important. It's like you can't kill all the predators. Because then the deer get overrun, and you're hitting them with cars, and you can't kill all the deer. Because then there's no predators. There's no food. I mean, that's what they did when they were market hunting. Balance. And you need balance with humans, too. 100%. And the Austin balance is a great balance. Yeah. It's a liberal city surrounded by, like, hardcore Republicans with guns and tigers. And it works. And it all works. It works. It makes for nice people. It's like it's a good mix. Yeah. And a misunderstood mix. That's interesting. Thanks for your support of our podcast. Thanks for telling people about it. Thanks for your messages to me through our website, Michaelberry Show.com. I read every one of them. We're here because you're here because you support what we do and you support our sponsors. You know, we call them sponsors because they're not advertisers.
