Folks, we're sponsored today by Donors Trust, the
0:02
tax-friendly way to preserve your charitable giving. The
0:04
holiday season is upon us. Kids are writing
0:06
their dear Santa letters and parents are busy
0:08
moving the elf on the shelf and making
0:11
sure the holidays are as magical as ever.
0:13
I hope you'll take some time this busy season
0:16
to consider, if you haven't already, developing
0:18
a smart strategic tax strategy for
0:20
your charitable giving. Essentially, align your
0:22
charitable giving to your values. There's
0:25
an easier tax-friendly way to manage
0:27
your charitable giving than donating one-off
0:29
dollar amounts to your church, synagogue, food
0:31
drive, fundraiser for a neighbor, local diaper
0:34
bank, or animal shelter. The list goes
0:36
on. Simplify
0:38
your giving this holiday season and open
0:40
a giving account with my friends at
0:42
Donors Trust. A giving account
0:44
is a flexible, tax-friendly way to do
0:47
your charitable giving. And, for Just the
0:49
News listeners, Donors Trust is the best
0:51
partner to work with. Donors Trust is
0:53

0:58
was built with listeners like you in

free markets improve life for everyone. As
1:07
the year draws to a close, now is
1:09
the perfect time to take a closer look
1:11
at Donors Trust and see how a giving
1:13
account can help you minimize taxes, avoid the
1:15
year-end rush, and help you maximize your charitable
1:18
impact. That's what we all want. And

1:22

Hello America and Merry Christmas. Yes, it's
2:06
Christmas morning, December 25th, 2023. Yes,
2:09
unto us a child is born. On
2:11
this beautiful day, we celebrate the birth
2:13
of Jesus Christ, the birth of Christianity,
2:16
the birth of an extraordinary holiday
2:19
where we spread goodwill and cheer to
2:21
all of our fellow men and women,
2:23
regardless of our faith, regardless
2:25
of our practices, regardless of our
2:27
skin color, our origins. This
2:30
is to be a day of good cheer and
2:32
I pray to God that you will enjoy that
2:34
day and that cheer with your family and your loved
2:36
ones on this day. Now, we're going to
2:38
continue our conversation that we started yesterday, Amanda
2:40
and I, the free parallel
2:42
economy, a freedom-loving, patriot-loving
2:45
economy. We got some great
2:47
guests today. Listen up
2:49
the next hour, all about introducing you to
2:51
products and people who are trying to put
2:53
freedom and free speech, free association
2:56
back into the free marketplace of America.
2:58
I hope you enjoy on this Christmas
3:00
day. We'll be back tomorrow with regular
3:02
programming. You
3:06
know folks, we can all benefit from heart
3:08
healthy energy, one of the best ways to
3:10
get some by supporting your blood pressure and
3:12
circulation. Superbeats heart chews are an
3:14
easy and convenient way to support healthy blood
3:16
pressure. They're plant-based and stimulant free, so you
3:19
get a green boost without any of the
3:21
jitters. Now paired with a
3:23
healthy lifestyle, the antioxidants in superbeats are
3:25
clinically shown to be nearly two times
3:27
more effective at promoting normal blood pressure
3:29
than a healthy lifestyle alone. That's pretty
3:32
impressive. Now, I've been taking superbeats for
3:34
several months and you know what? My
3:36
blood pressure has ticked down several points on both
3:38
the top and the bottom number. I
3:40
feel better. Superbeats is
3:43
the number one doctor, pharmacist and
3:45
cardiologist recommended beet brand for cardiovascular
3:47
health support. It's blood pressure
3:49
support you can trust. Plus, superbeats heart
3:51
chews are plant-based and so easy to
3:53
add to your routine. There's no pills
3:56
to swallow, no ingredients to mix, nothing
3:58
to prepare. So double your protection. with

and that's awesome because more and more
4:21
things aren't free right now. I mean,
4:23
think about all the things you're paying
4:25
for daily, monthly, yearly. Well, here's something
4:27
that won't add to that list, the
4:29
free iHeartRadio app, podcasts, streaming music,
4:31
digital radio, all free. It's the future
4:33
of audio and unlike almost everything else
4:35

4:37
air, it doesn't cost a dollar. So
4:39
take advantage of this. Listen
4:41
to everything you love on the iHeartRadio app for
4:44
free. On
4:50
this very special holiday, we want to celebrate
4:52
a great gift that we've been given and
4:54
that is the incredible gift of free speech.
4:56
Over the last two years, as free speech
4:58
has come under, assault by so many on
5:01
the left, new and vibrant
5:03
and exciting opportunities are cropping up all
5:05
over this country, not only to restore
5:07
free speech but to create new competitive
5:09
markets for the thought and discussion that
5:11
America needs so badly in this country.
5:14
We've been talking about it. It's the
5:16
ongoing success of the parallel economy. Over
5:18
the course of the next hour, we'll be joined by musician
5:20
John Rich to talk about his new music. Big
5:23
Man Comics illustrator Gabriel El-Tad who also
5:25
has done some extraordinary new work in
5:27
the comic space along
5:29
with Superman actor Dean Kane and several others
5:32
will be joining us including at the top
5:34
of the show Chris Pavlowski, one of the
5:36
greatest disruptors of the new
5:38
tech platforms in America. What he's done
5:40
at Rumble has really revolutionized the communication
5:42
space. But before we do that, I
5:44
want to bring in my amazing co-host
5:46
Amanda Headwisher, a very Merry Christmas and
5:49
get some other thoughts from her, Amanda,
5:51
a lot going on. A great day
5:53
to celebrate free speech this Christmas, though.
5:56
It is and that is one amazing gift
5:58
that we have. Merry Christmas. to you John
6:00
and to everyone, technically from Manitoba,
6:03
Canada. Yeah, everything is going
6:05
great. I'm here with my wonderful Canadian in-laws, time
6:07
spent of course with them and their friends
6:09
and John, there are going to be many companies
6:11
that we aren't able to feature. So I want
6:14
to urge everybody to head
6:16
over to your website, just the news.com
6:18
and check out your holiday gift guide.
6:20
Amazing products and services on there and what's
6:23
great about these products from the great partnerships
6:25
that you have formed over the last year
6:27
is that you can buy them for yourself
6:29
and of course, great thanks to your
6:31
collaboration with these companies and their executives.
6:33
You offer our audience a lot of
6:35
great discounts with promo codes to use
6:37
on those select products. And
6:39
while you're all over on the holiday gift
6:42
guide, do yourself a favor and make a
6:44
donation to Just The News or at least
6:46
get a membership today. This is the true
6:48
season of giving and John and his team
6:51
worked so very hard to bring unbiased truth
6:53
directly to your phones, your emails, your web
6:55
browsers, your inboxes. So I'm
6:57
not ashamed to hype up my amazing
6:59
co-host and his team of incredibly hardworking
7:01
reporters because they truly deserve the support
7:04
that they hopefully will be getting from all of you this
7:06
holiday season. If you can't afford a membership or you already
7:09
have one, but you're active on
7:11
social media, be sure to follow all of
7:13
them on X, Instagram, True Social and any
7:15
of the other various social media sites. But
7:17
John, I'm going to step off my Christmas
7:20
soapbox even though you all deserve the kudos
7:22
because you were standing by our first guest
7:24
who harbors an entrepreneurial mindset just as he
7:26
has. So let's dive into it.
7:29
I'm so excited to be welcoming him on
7:31
this very special Christmas day, this Christmas special.
7:34
I've known Chris Pavlosky for a few
7:36
years. What he has done to disrupt
7:38
one of the most dominant monopolistic forces
7:40
in the internet is just amazing. We
7:42
all got addicted to YouTube and then
7:44
we realized YouTube decides what we say
7:46
and can't say and we had no
7:48
choices. And then Chris jumped into this
7:50
extraordinary space and he created Rumble. And
7:53
today it is one of the most
7:55
powerful and most vibrant video
7:57
platforms anywhere in America. joined
8:00
by him. He's the CEO and founder of
8:02
Rumble. My good friend Chris Pavloski. Chris, welcome.
8:04
Merry Christmas. Merry
8:06
Christmas to the both of you. Glad to be
8:09
here today. It is an
8:11
amazing moment to just step back. I guess
8:13
it's been three or four years now of
8:15
just watching Rumble grow and grow and become
8:17
more vibrant from the cloud to
8:19
the ads to the studio. But
8:22
I saw something amazing happen just before
8:24
the holidays. Dan Bongina, one of the
8:26
flagship shows on Rumble
8:28
surpassed, and I have this
8:30
right, 3 million subscribers. Yeah,
8:34
that's correct. So Dan joined in
8:36
the fall of 2020. He followed
8:38
after Devin Nunes. So
8:43
Congressman Devin Nunes at the time was one of the
8:46
first people to join on the platform. And
8:49
then, well, while we were experiencing the growth, one
8:51
of the first people that kind of triggered a
8:53
little bit of the growth. And then
8:55
Dan came on in the fall and he just
8:59
posted, I guess it's two
9:01
and a half years later, he posted 3 million
9:04
subscribers on Rumble, which is like an amazing
9:06
feat. I think the most he ever had
9:08
on YouTube was 700,000. He
9:11
now has 3 million on Rumble. He's
9:13
posting yesterday alone. He had 127,000 live
9:15
concurrent viewers
9:18
at one moment, a
9:20
million total viewers on
9:22
a lot of his shows, lots passing a
9:24
million. So he's
9:27
really setting the internet on fire right now
9:29
and showing the world what you can do
9:31
on an alternative platform like Rumble and showing
9:34
how you can grow and lead the
9:36
way. So we're super excited that he
9:38
hit that milestone. He's the biggest, single
9:40
biggest creator on Rumble when it comes
9:42
to subscribers. And he's been loyal to
9:44
the platform for two and a half
9:46
years now. So we're super proud. It's
9:48
impressive. That's incredible. And
9:50
congratulations to him and you also.
9:52
I remember when Rumble first burst
9:55
on the scene and similar to
9:57
some of the other alternative social
9:59
media platforms. Everybody was saying,
10:01
oh, it's just going to be conservatives. It's going
10:03
to be a conservative hub for videos and other
10:05
content. That's not the case, is it? No,
10:10
exactly. That's actually changed quite a bit in 2023.
10:14
The leading, I
10:16
guess, political affiliation on Rumble right
10:18
now, according to ComScore data, is
10:20
putting independence and no affiliation combined
10:23
as the biggest group of
10:25
viewers on Rumble. That
10:27
kind of flies into the face that we're a
10:30
platform only for a certain type of
10:32
content. It's obviously not in an election
10:35
year right now. There's been a lot
10:37
of gamers coming onto the platform. There's
10:39
been a lot of people seeking different types of content.
10:42
Obviously, we've been growing different types of
10:44
audiences on the platform as well. It's
10:48
a platform for everyone. We like to
10:50
take a neutral stance on everything. We
10:53
don't like to lean one way or the other way.
10:55
That is exactly the mistake that I think the other
10:57
platforms made, is they all chose a side and they
11:00
all chose to go to
11:02
a side, whereas Rumble kind of stayed in
11:04
the middle, stayed neutral, and
11:06
never picked a side and never will.
11:09
Yeah, that's what's brilliant of it. It's the way
11:11
we used to be in this country until more
11:13
recently. Chris, you've done so
11:15
much more than just create an incredible
11:17
video platform. You've created an advertising platform.
11:19
You've created a back end, which is
11:21
very important because we've seen people get
11:23
thrown off of major computer
11:26
background infrastructure because of their beliefs
11:28
or their sayings. Tell us
11:30
a little bit about the breadth of what Rumble's
11:32
become because it's not just an amazing video platform.
11:36
Yeah, it's super important. Thanks
11:38
for asking that question. We
11:41
probably all remember what happened a couple years
11:43
ago with Parler. Amazon deplatformed the entire
11:46
platform and virtually put it out of
11:48
business overnight by doing that. When
11:51
we were experiencing growth, we decided that it
11:53
was really important to build our own infrastructure
11:55
and not rely on any of the big
11:57
tech companies to supply any of the infrastructure.
12:00
for us, so we've been building our own cloud in
12:02
our own infrastructure. We are trying
12:04
to build completely off the grid from big
12:06
tech so that we can be completely self-reliant
12:08
and not depend on any of the big
12:11
tech companies. So that's what we've done. We've
12:13
launched the cloud into beta. One of our
12:15
anchor tenants that was there first was
12:18
Truth Social. So we have Truth Social as
12:20
one of our anchor tenants early on and
12:23
we're looking to release that cloud out
12:25
of beta early in 2024 so that
12:27
every business can
12:30
join and run their business on a platform
12:32
that has similar values to what they have.
12:34
So we're excited to roll that out. It's
12:36
in beta right now. If you're interested in
12:38
it, you can sign up at rumble.cloud and
12:41
jump on that type of infrastructure
12:43
that matches your values. On the
12:45
other side, we've also been building
12:47
an advertising ecosystem. So we built
12:49
the Rumble Ad Center and once
12:51
again, Truth Social was one of
12:53
the first partners on the platform
12:55
to utilize this platform that we're
12:57
building. So we don't wanna be
13:00
dependent on big tech as well for
13:02
advertisements. So we're trying to get away
13:04
from any of the big tech clause
13:06
that can kind of hinder our growth
13:08
and stop us from doing certain things.
13:10
So we built the Rumble advertising center
13:12
where any product or any service out
13:14
there can come and directly advertise directly
13:16
to the Rumble audience. Amazing,
13:19
just amazing. Yeah, Chris, it seems
13:21
like content creators over on
13:23
YouTube are getting to this place
13:26
where they are just beaten down
13:28
by YouTube. They're constantly getting strikes.
13:30
They're constantly getting notifications from YouTube
13:32
that overlords controlling their content. And
13:34
I'm sure a lot of them are looking for
13:37
alternative places to take their content. For someone
13:39
who has a huge following on YouTube and
13:41
they wanna take a step, they wanna dive
13:43
in with Rumble, what is that process like
13:45
for them to get their following
13:48
back up to what was on par at
13:50
YouTube? So
13:52
I think Dan is like an excellent
13:54
example and even Steven Crowder. Steven
13:57
Crowder still has a YouTube channel and he uses it for a
13:59
lot of people. uses his YouTube channel to really kind
14:01
of bring in a lot of the users that
14:03
were on YouTube. And he did that very early
14:05
on, a couple of years ago. And
14:08
now, anytime he decides that he streams
14:10
on YouTube simultaneously when he's streaming on
14:12
Rumble, it's almost like a 10 to
14:14
1 ratio of users watching on Rumble
14:17
because he's constantly advocating for
14:19
everyone to watch on the Rumble
14:21
platform because it aligns with his
14:23
values. And I think
14:25
that's a perfect way to do it. You can
14:28
use these other platforms to kind of bring your
14:30
audience over. You need to do it as soon as
14:32
possible because one day you can wake up and that
14:34
platform might not be there for you anymore. Whereas at
14:36
Rumble, you can rely on us to be there. Yeah,
14:39
that's so important. Chris, we've got about a minute
14:41
left. What do we expect? 2024
14:43
elections, a big year, I expect Rumble is going to keep
14:45
growing like a monster. What are the big things to watch
14:47
for in 2024? So
14:50
yeah, like I've been saying over and over again, I
14:52
think 2024 is the Super Bowl year for
14:56
Rumble. It's an opportunity where now
14:58
we have a really good product entering the
15:00
market. We're going to have the Rumble ad
15:02
center coming out of beta. We're going to
15:04
have Rumble cloud coming out of beta. We're
15:07
going to have the election year where I
15:09
think we're probably one of the best platform
15:11
hands down to get the information that's not
15:13
being censored or information that's not being influenced
15:15
by any corporate media. So I'm
15:17
really looking forward to 2024 launching all
15:20
these products, taking them out of beta
15:22
and really capturing that audience in 2024 in a way
15:24
that we never have done before. You've
15:31
been able to help an entire part
15:33
of America avoid being deplatformed technologically, deplatformed
15:35
or demonetized, and also to have an
15:37
incredible experience. Chris, you have really done
15:39
a great service in this country. We
15:41
are so grateful. I want to wish
15:43
you a very Merry Christmas and a
15:46
very successful 2024. Thank
15:50
you, John. Thank you, Amanda. Thank
15:52
you as well. Yeah, it's just an amazing story, folks.
15:55
So much of our content at Justin News
15:57
goes on, Rumble. We see such incredible engagement.
16:01
What we get on YouTube, it is a remarkable
16:03
thing. Chris has done great work and it is
16:05
an incredible gift to this country to have restored
16:07
free speech to his platform. All right, we're going
16:09
to take a quick commercial break. We have lots
16:12
more disruptors on the way on this very special
16:14
Christmas edition. We'll be right back after these messages.

17:42
Merry Christmas to all y'all sending your evening
17:45
with us tonight. We are so happy that
17:47
you are here and that of course includes
17:49
our next guest. Never in my wildest dreams
17:51
did I think that former President Donald Trump
17:53
was going to have to start a technology
17:56
and media company. But of course after the
17:58
way that social media treated him. during
18:00
his campaign, during his presidency, and
18:02
then of course hindered his reelection
18:04
campaign, beginning True Social just made
18:06
sense and installing former California
18:08
Congressman Devin Nunes as the new organization's
18:10
first CEO also made perfect sense. Devin
18:13
joins us now to talk about True
18:15
Social, fine wine and much more Congress.
18:17
And Merry Christmas to you, thank you
18:19
for being here, sir. It's
18:21
a joy to be with both of you.
18:23
Two of my favorite people for sure. Oh,
18:25
back atcha. Likewise, likewise. And we're gonna work
18:27
our way to the fun part about the
18:29
wine, but I wanna get down to business
18:32
and start first with Trump Media and Technology
18:34
Group because this obviously was something born out
18:36
of necessity. That's what they say about invention,
18:39
but it has grown by leaps and bounds and is
18:41
now quite competitive with other social
18:43
media platforms. How did you do it? Well,
18:47
you have to go back to Parler,
18:49
I think, which was one of the
18:51
worst things that ever happened in US
18:53
history was to watch that company
18:55
be taken down. And I
18:57
was one of the first people to go to Parler.
19:00
I was also happen to be the first one, the
19:02
first person, anyway, other than funny animal videos, I was
19:04
the first person on Rumble. So
19:07
I was also the first person
19:09
to be shadow banned by all of the
19:11
big tech giants. So when Parler
19:13
got taken down, I think it just was
19:16
a dark day in history because it wasn't,
19:18
everybody talks about how they were taking off
19:20
the app stores but in
19:22
and lost their web servers. Reality
19:24
is that there was like some two
19:26
dozen companies that refused to do business
19:28
with them. So you took what was
19:30
then a billion, maybe
19:32
multi-billion dollar valuation of a company
19:35
and you destroyed it overnight. So
19:38
I went around the country talking about this
19:40
and then lo and behold, of course, Donald
19:42
Trump was kicked off of like millions of
19:44
Americans, kicked off of all the platforms. So
19:47
when he called me and asked me to
19:49
leave Congress to start this company was something
19:51
I couldn't say no to. Because
19:54
I know it's needed. I mean, we have to have
19:57
the internet highway open.
20:00
for all points of view. So
20:02
it really is the most basic right as
20:04
a U.S. citizen that's guaranteed in our Constitution,
20:06
and that is the right to free speech.
20:09
So every day we are working on
20:11
new technology here, you know, to make
20:13
sure that we allow all Americans
20:15
and people all over the world a
20:18
place to have their voice. We are their
20:20
voice. We are a movement. And
20:23
we're going to continue to provide and look for
20:25
other features that we
20:27
can allow things like rural America's voice,
20:29
your show, also to be featured into
20:32
the future. Yeah, that is such
20:34
an exciting opportunity. And it really has. You said
20:36
a highway. We did. You opened up a whole
20:38
new highway for free speech. At the very moment,
20:40
the government in big tech, and we were, we
20:43
didn't have it fully unraveled at that point, but
20:45
they were suppressing us in Bill A's big and
20:47
small, the Elvis Chan operation, the
20:49
all the other different censorship machines that
20:51
we've now learned. Today, it
20:54
is now has a strong foothold. And
20:56
what's interesting around it now is it
20:58
isn't just a social media platform. It's
21:00
become a community. And I'm really interested,
21:02
you fostered from the beginning, you didn't want
21:04
this just to be a social media platform. You
21:06
created a sense of community. There are groups, there
21:08
are also a brand selling
21:10
there. You got launching music that goes to
21:13
the top of every chart in America. How
21:16
did you do that? Why is it important
21:18
in today's world that a digital platform not
21:20
just be a business, but a community? Well,
21:23
one of the things I wanted to make sure
21:26
is that with President Trump, he was well known
21:28
for his tweets, mean tweets and all the nonsense
21:30
that the fake news talks about. But
21:32
we never wanted to be, if you want to get
21:34
on there, and some people have private
21:36
groups, so they get on there, they want
21:38
to talk freely amongst themselves.
21:41
They don't want the fake news in there trying to
21:43
grab stuff and share it. So this
21:45
is a feature, John, and Amanda, that's going to
21:47
be one that I think is going
21:49
to be continued to grow in
21:51
the future years. I
21:54
want to ask you, I don't want
21:56
to dampen the mood of a Christmas special
21:59
about parallel economy. me with congressional business,
22:01
but I do have to ask you about
22:03
your old haunt because there is a relative
22:05
to you, speaker Mike Johnson, and you have
22:08
these two committees, judiciary and Intel, for
22:10
you as an alum, you know, looking at
22:12
these competing bills to reform FISA, which you
22:14
have a very close relationship and
22:16
awareness of. If it was up to me,
22:19
it would have taken the best bit from
22:21
each of those bills. Neither one of them
22:23
ultimately prevailed. How disappointed are you? Well,
22:26
look, it's really simple. I think neither bill
22:29
did what I actually called for, you know,
22:31
even five, six years ago that needed
22:33
to be done. And that is that the legislative
22:36
branch of government needs to have
22:38
full access to the FISA court
22:40
transcripts and documents. Now,
22:42
there's a number of different ways you can do
22:45
that, but the process has been used already using
22:47
the Gang of Eight process where Republicans would have
22:49
a couple staff from the House, a couple staff
22:51
from the Senate. So it would then
22:53
report to committee chairs and or ranking members. The
22:56
Democrats would have the same. That
22:58
to me is the only solution, the only solution that
23:00
matters. People get hung up on the
23:02
warrant issue. Look, there is a need for warrants in some
23:04
cases, some cases there's not. So they're
23:06
kind of fighting, in my opinion, and
23:09
these are, I got friends on both sides of
23:11
this, they're kind of butting heads on something that,
23:13
and they're not really focused on a larger problem,
23:15
which look, you can have all the warrants in
23:17
the world or you do nothing.
23:19
And guess what? The crooks are still going to
23:21
be the crooks at the FBI and DOJ. And
23:24
I mean, remember they targeted justices that they
23:26
knew would be sitting on the FISA court.
23:29
So look, the easiest thing is
23:31
transparency, openness, having Congress have
23:34
a role into that
23:37
is the only solution if you are going to
23:39
do this type
23:41
of intelligence collection. I think
23:44
that's exactly right. Congressman,
23:47
you have a lot of titles, Master of
23:49
Liberty, you fought for our liberty, you are
23:51
an extraordinary CEO of a large technology company.
23:53
But one of my favorites, and I don't
23:56
think a lot of Americans know this, is
23:58
that you are a master winemaker. as well,
24:00
and you have your own brand of wines,
24:02
tell us how you found time to make
24:04
a brand of great wines. Well,
24:06
you know, I come from a family of
24:08
farmers. I mean, every generation in my family
24:10
goes back, as far as I know of,
24:12
there were no politicians, there
24:14
was nothing other than farmers. And
24:17
so I grew up in the vineyards, I grew
24:19
up farming, I was
24:22
founding investor in a winery that started about 20
24:24
years ago. And back in
24:26
2017, John, you'll remember this, that
24:28
timeframe, I was actually gonna start this project, which
24:30
is, I have this
24:33
view, this theory
24:35
that growing Portuguese grapes on
24:38
the central coast of California can make
24:40
world-class wines. I was gonna start it in 2017, but
24:43
then the Russia hoax happened, so I didn't have any time. Finally,
24:46
in 2020, you gotta remember, wine
24:48
takes a long time, you gotta, there's
24:50
a lot of run up to grow
24:53
wine, you grow grape, crush it, put
24:56
it in a barrel, then make the
24:58
wine. So finally, 2021 was my first
25:00
vintage, we just released that this year, and
25:03
I'm proud to say that, look, I think I'm
25:05
the only company in the United States that's making
25:07
these world-class wines of Portuguese grapes, and I actually
25:09
have also one, this is
25:11
Ties in True Social here, John Amanda, the
25:14
Patriot wine, which is a Cabernet
25:17
wine, and it is, we
25:20
actually put a poll up on True Social because I
25:22
was gonna make the Portuguese varietals, but
25:24
I thought I might make a Bordeaux tab also,
25:28
and we put up a poll, and the
25:30
name Patriot won, and therefore you have a
25:32
True Social named wine via a
25:35
poll on True Social, and
25:37
it's really great Cab coming from the Central
25:39
Coast of California, Paso Robles, which
25:41
many people know. A dose of free
25:44
speech and a case of wine, I like
25:46
that. Yeah, well, look, a couple hundred years
25:48
ago, the Italian and the French were dealing
25:50
with parasitic soil, and they purchased some of
25:52
our American vines, so I guess we get
25:54
to trade off now between us and Europe.
25:56
Okay, so tell everybody where they can find
25:58
those wines. Hi. devinnunaswines.com.
26:02
Get on there, join the club, and you'll get your
26:04
wine. We'll ship it out. It's Christmas time, so maybe
26:06
a little bit delayed, but we'll get it to you
26:08
for sure within a couple weeks.
26:10
Yeah, that's great. Join the club. I'm in the
26:12
club. Join the club, guys. Founder's club. Be a
26:15
founder's club member with me, please. I'm
26:17
gonna be in the club, too, Devin. Thank you
26:19
so much, everybody. Head over to devinnunaswines.com. Go
26:22
ahead. I just want all of you to enjoy the wine.
26:24
That's the main thing. It's
26:27
a passion project. It's a hobby. It's
26:29
something that I've done for years, and I think you guys
26:32
will enjoy it. Yeah, we do. I happen to know
26:34
that we all will enjoy it, so thank you so
26:36
much for being here, Devin, and thank you for being
26:38
a huge part of the creation of a parallel economy.
26:40
You don't want to go anywhere, everybody, because when we
26:43
return, we have the one and only country music star
26:45
by the name of Don Rick. ["The Star-Spangled
26:47
Banner"] Welcome
26:56
back, America. Merry Christmas. We're just a
26:58
couple days away, and this
27:00
is our, I love it, Liberty Loving Christmas special
27:03
as we focus in on the parallel
27:05
economy. There is no person I can
27:07
think of who has done more to
27:09
disrupt the traditional economy, to restore freedom
27:11
to it, or to create new opportunities
27:13
for Americans, and our next guest, John
27:15
Rich, is one of Country Music's greatest
27:17
stars. He's also one of its greatest
27:19
disruptors. His effort to release songs around
27:21
the music labels and to create a
27:24
Liberty Loving Bank has really transformed America
27:26
over the last year, and he joins us right
27:28
now. Merry Christmas, great to have you on the
27:30
show, my friend. You too,
27:32
man, I love that background. It's almost like
27:34
I'm getting John Solomon for Christmas this year.
27:37
Oh, that would ruin
27:39
a lot of Christmases. The Bidens have asked me not
27:42
to show up for their Christmas, so I'm pretty sure
27:44
I would stay away. Well,
27:46
listen, you make anyone's Christmas complete,
27:48
your music, your enthusiasm, your love
27:50
for your country, but
27:52
the parallel economy that you've been helping to
27:54
build all day, all night
27:56
with the bank you started, with the
27:58
record label and going... direct to the American
28:00
people. You transformed, I think the economy in a
28:03
big way in 2023. Tell
28:05
us at the end of this year, what lessons you've
28:07
learned from that. Well,
28:10
first of all, I think that, when
28:12
you talk about parallel economies, it's
28:14
not just an entrepreneurial effort,
28:17
it's a necessity, I believe, for
28:19
Americans to start thinking like that.
28:21
And I always challenge people, if they
28:23
see me on an interview or hear a discussion like
28:25
this, to think about in their business
28:28
and their expertise, what they can do to
28:30
really set up something on their own that
28:33
the government cannot destroy or take away from them.
28:35
It's a sad state that our country's in right
28:37
now. We've really only got two choices, we
28:40
can scream and holler about it, which we do plenty
28:42
of that. But when you get through
28:44
screaming and hollering about it, the problem still exists.
28:46
So you've got to come up with other ways
28:48
to do your business and to be heard. And
28:51
so, whether it be music or
28:53
banking or other things, I've
28:55
sat around, spent a lot of time thinking, huh,
28:57
I know the crowd is there, I
29:00
know the customers are out there, I know my
29:02
fans are out there, but this big
29:04
industry won't allow me to get to them.
29:06
They've shut me off, they've canceled me, turned
29:08
off my voice. How do we
29:10
figure this thing out? And it can be figured out.
29:13
And as much as I don't like tech, tech
29:15
actually is a great tool in your
29:17
hand if you're looking to communicate with a lot of
29:19
people around the establishment. And
29:22
that's exactly what we've done. I've put out several
29:24
songs that all go to the top
29:26
of the download charts, Progress, the one,
29:28
John, that you got behind so big. That's state
29:30
number one on iTunes for two weeks in a
29:32
row. Amazing. All genres, not just
29:35
country, it was a huge success. And
29:37
then Old Glory Bank, which I know we're
29:39
gonna talk about. Listen, people are having their
29:41
bank accounts frozen, suspended,
29:44
sometimes completely turned off. And
29:46
it disrupts their business in such a way that a
29:49
lot of people lose their businesses when that happens. So
29:52
that's another hill, as we say, we have
29:54
to build hills that people can run to,
29:56
because that's what people feel like. It's time to run
29:59
for the hills, everybody. Well, what hill are
30:01
you going to run to that the enemy hasn't
30:03
already purchased? They own all the hills, but we
30:05
have to build new hills for people to run
30:07
to. So I love that.
30:10
I honestly don't know how you have the time
30:12
to go after all of the endeavors that you
30:15
do between banking and your whiskey brand and also
30:17
music. But I would remiss if I
30:19
did not mention your new song that is out. And I
30:21
want to encourage our entire audience to go out and buy
30:23
it. But I want to give a little bit of a
30:25
teaser now. Everybody check it out. I'm
31:00
sorry people are not looking for
31:02
the shots and all the blood.
31:06
You are the Lord, ain't your
31:08
man the way they can? Cause
31:12
we'd all be speaking German and
31:14
living under the flag of Japan.
31:17
If it wasn't for the good
31:19
Lord and the man, if
31:23
it wasn't for the good Lord
31:25
and you. Amazing.
31:32
I love the message of that
31:34
song. John, tell us about your grandmother.
31:38
Well, he's a World War II vet. And
31:41
I think all of us, if I asked
31:43
you guys and everybody watching to think about
31:46
a picture that's hung on your wall or
31:49
your grandmother's wall or somebody in the family
31:52
of a family member who served, especially from the
31:54
greatest generation, the World War II generation. You'll probably
31:56
think of that picture right now. You can probably
31:58
see it clear as a bell. And
32:01
it's been a long time since anybody wrote
32:03
a song or really did something to highlight
32:06
their service. And as I see
32:08
our country now in 2023, you
32:11
wonder if we got into
32:13
a conflict of that magnitude again these days,
32:16
how would young Americans react to that
32:18
call, to that challenge? Would they step
32:20
up like the greatest generation did?
32:22
And I think that's a wide open
32:24
debate at this point. But back then,
32:26
there was no question about it. My grandfather signed
32:28
up when he was 17. He actually lied about
32:31
his age, signed up at 17. He
32:33
wanted to go fight. He was furiously
32:36
upset about Japan bombing Pearl
32:38
Harbor. And so he went over
32:40
there and did his job and he did it very
32:42
well. And he came back with PTSD too. They just
32:44
didn't know what to call it back then. He
32:47
was hooked on morphine for two years when he got
32:49
back home, had to wean himself off
32:51
of that, became a farmer and
32:53
died at 80 years old from cancer. So
32:55
I mean, we stand
32:57
on the shoulders of these people. This
32:59
song is not just about my grandfather.
33:02
It's about all those men, all those
33:04
people that did what it took to
33:06
keep our country intact. And
33:08
so they're the shoulders we stand on. And
33:10
I firmly believe we are the shoulders that
33:13
the next generations are going to stand on. People
33:15
that have our last names, people with the last name
33:17
of Solomon, John, that you'll
33:19
never meet. That'll be a long
33:22
time after you're gone. People
33:24
named Rich, that'll be long after I'm gone. They
33:27
are going to look back and say, what were you doing?
33:29
What was my ancestors doing when the country
33:31
got into that shape? I hope they stood
33:34
up and tried to do something about it.
33:36
That's what this song is all about. It
33:38
is such a powerful word. And that line in there, if
33:40
it weren't for the good Lord of the man, we'd
33:42
all be speaking German and be under the flag
33:45
of Japan. I mean, that is such a powerful
33:47
reminder of the consequences of the moment we live
33:49
in, different threats, but the
33:51
same call to action. You are just
33:53
so brilliant and motivating us, John. It's
33:55
really something. I want to turn to
33:58
another thing that you've done that really has inspired a lot of people. of
34:00
people, Old Glory Bank, a bank
34:02
with patriotism. There is a debanking movement going
34:04
on where conservatives are getting debanked all across
34:06
this country. Tell us a little about the
34:08
success of Old Glory because it's solved a
34:10
real problem in this country. Yes.
34:13
So this all started when
34:15
we were watching the trucker protests happen up
34:18
in Canada and Justin Trudeau
34:20
could not get them to leave. He just
34:22
couldn't get them to go. And so his
34:24
final move was he started freezing their bank
34:26
accounts, not just the truckers, but the company
34:29
that the trucker drove for. If you were
34:31
a tow truck company that refused to tow
34:33
the trucks, they'd freeze your bank account too.
34:36
They just started mass freezing everybody's bank accounts.
34:38
And that eventually broke their backs and ended
34:40
the protest. If you look
34:42
at Nigel Farage, for instance, a recent story
34:44
on him, all of his banking was just
34:46
turned off overnight because they didn't like his
34:49
position on some subjects. So in America,
34:51
if you think we don't have people in positions
34:53
of power that fantasize about
34:56
shutting off John Rich's account or
34:58
John Solomon's account or President
35:00
Trump's account or whoever, you're kidding
35:03
yourself because that's exactly what they want to be
35:05
able to do. And so as
35:07
we recognize this problem, Dr. Ben Carson,
35:09
Larry Elder, myself and a bunch of
35:11
other guys said, we got to build
35:13
a new banking platform where you will
35:15
never be punished or canceled for exercising
35:18
your constitutional rights. Now it's a pretty
35:20
pathetic thing that that actually has to
35:22
be a business model, but
35:25
it is because that's the state our country
35:27
is in. So Oh glory bank.com is where
35:29
you go to open up an account. We
35:31
now have tens of thousands of accounts, people
35:33
doing their banking there. We just started doing
35:36
small business loans. Mortgages are
35:38
coming up next. It's going to be a full
35:40
service situation for people coast to
35:42
coast in this country who are concerned about
35:44
the future of banking. It's
35:46
such a great solution. We only got about 30 seconds left. I
35:49
know some great stocking stuffers. You've got a great concert
35:51
tour next year. Kid Rock and Jason Aldean. How do
35:53
we get signed up for that? I'm going to be
35:55
getting my family that one. Rock
35:58
the country tour, man. It's going to be something. and
36:00
else 2024 is going to be loud and
36:02
proud America all across this country. I'll
36:05
go get your tickets, show up and see us.
36:07
We can't wait to be in your hometown. Yeah,
36:09
it's going to be a really, really fun night.
36:11
I know my family is going to be buying
36:13
them for our local concert and then you're right
36:15
here. John, we want to wish you a Merry
36:17
Christmas. And I want to just personally thank you.
36:19
You have shown a courage, a passion, and a
36:21
love for this country that few in country music
36:23
have put out there. You put yourself out there.
36:25
You've made our country better. We really appreciate you,
36:27
my friend. I'm very kind
36:29
of you to say Merry Christmas to both of you. Have
36:31
a great one. God bless you, my friend. All
36:33
right, folks. And go download that song, The Man.
36:35
That's an incredible song to share with
36:37
your family this Christmas season. All right. We're going to take
36:39
a few commercial breaks here. We'll be
36:41
back in a few minutes with more conversation
36:43
on our Liberty Free Christmas special. Welcome
36:57
back, everybody. As we've been making our way through
36:59
this Christmas special, I want to point out something
37:01
that many people might not have noticed
37:03
yet. Everyone who we have had on so far
37:05
tonight never once remained
37:08
complacent in their industry or just sat
37:10
around and complained rather than griping about
37:12
how liberal or woke or out of
37:14
touch their organization was. They embraced
37:17
our capitalistic economy and they set out
37:19
on their own path to create something
37:21
better for themselves and, consequently, better
37:24
for all of us. And our next guest
37:26
did the exact same thing. Gabriel El-Tav
37:28
left the very well-known woke culture of DC
37:30
Comics and started making his own. Today,
37:32
he has collaborated with actor Dean Kane and worked
37:34
with many others to make his dream come alive
37:37
and lucky for us. He joins the show via
37:39
Skype right now. Gabe, it is great to see
37:41
you. Thank you so much for being here. And
37:43
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to you
37:45
too, Amanda and John. Thank you for
37:47
having me. This is really exciting. I'm glad to be back. It's
37:49
fun to be here. It's fun to be here. We
37:52
love it. I know. I know. And we love
37:54
having you on. And for our audience who missed
37:56
you the first few times around, just give everybody
37:58
kind of a brief rundown of. of your career
38:00
at DC and how and why you left. I've
38:04
been drawing ever since I could remember, like three
38:06
years old in the back of my grandparents' Mexican
38:08
restaurant. I found X-Men when I
38:10
was about 13 years old and my favorite artist
38:12
was Jim Lee. He drew an exciting new series
38:14
like 92, record-setting book, eight
38:17
million copies, most selling comic of all time. And
38:19
I wanted to be him. I wanted to work
38:21
for him. Long story short, he hires me in
38:23
my very late 20s and I get a job
38:25
at Warner Brothers working on staff in
38:27
the studio for DC Comics for a few
38:29
years. And then after three years, that was
38:31
2008 through 10. Then
38:34
in 11, everything moved from San Diego up
38:36
to Hollywood so they could focus on TV and
38:38
all those interesting movies they make.
38:41
So I went freelance. So I continued to work for them for
38:43
like another 11 years. But then I
38:45
worked for everyone else too. I worked on Star
38:47
Wars and I did stuff for Disney and Marvel
38:49
and everything. I had a lot of fun, but
38:52
somewhere in the teens, in
38:54
mid-Obama stuff, everyone knows culture
38:57
and getting more and more woke. And
38:59
it just got to a point where, it
39:02
felt like it was encroaching in on me. Like, you
39:04
know, oh, well, the book I'm on is now, but
39:06
then more and more and more. And eventually they got
39:08
to this very un-American Superman book they wanted me to
39:10
work on in this and that. And I was in
39:12
the middle of about to sign two new contracts with
39:14
them, two extensions. And I just,
39:16
I couldn't do it. I couldn't stay there and
39:18
make woke stuff, which in my opinion doesn't have
39:21
artistic merit. And it's filled. It's bad for people.
39:23
It sends bad messages and it diminishes
39:25
people's lives. And that's not why I'm
39:27
an artist. So I went independent and
39:29
I've had nothing but success making
39:32
independent comics and they're not anti-woke.
39:34
They're not woke. They're not we hate Democrats.
39:36
They're just awesome action adventures with good morals
39:38
and uplifting stories. And I wouldn't have made
39:40
friends with people like you, John, Amanda, or
39:42
the great Dean Kane who I've collaborated with
39:44
on my latest project, Dean Kane All-American Lawmen.
39:46
So that's where we are today. And that's
39:48
a long journey from little boy to
39:50
45 year old man now. So. It
39:53
took a lot of courage to walk away from, you're
39:56
at the pinnacle of the industry and you're one of
39:58
the, literally the crime day like crime artists. in
40:00
the world and you walk away from that because
40:02
your values are more important than the money. It's
40:04
a really remarkable thing you did, Gabe. I wanna
40:07
ask you, this Dean Kane project,
40:09
we had Dean out a couple weeks ago, he's
40:11
so excited about it. Tell us a little bit
40:13
more about the inspiration for this and the reaction
40:15
for it. I recently saw a live stream on
40:17
it, it was awesome. Oh,
40:19
oh, did you catch this with Eric
40:21
July on Monday? Yes, Monday, yeah. Okay,
40:24
okay, so yeah, I teamed up with some great
40:26
people in the independent comic book world and we're
40:28
just giving you those classic adventures from the 80s
40:31
and 90s where it was still family focused, kind
40:33
of morals, the strong man, the beautiful woman. The
40:35
bad guys are actually bad and the good guys
40:37
are not just another bad guy, like a lot
40:40
of modern, postmodern garbage like that. And I was
40:42
working on another, the first book I did when
40:44
I left DC Comics, it was called Truth, Justice,
40:46
American Way. And it was kind of
40:49
my version of like Superman, Batman, Wonder
40:51
Woman, like classic superheroes, but taking away the
40:53
woke elements and adding in a lot
40:55
of heart and heroism and patriotism because
40:57
they ditched that motto in that Superman book they wanted me
41:00
to do that I walked off of. They
41:02
had Superman officially ditched that motto, Truth,
41:04
Justice, American Way, which is very insulting
41:06
and nonsensical. But anyway, at
41:10
the end of that project, nearing the end of it, I was drawing it one
41:12
day and I started thinking, what am I gonna do next? And I had been
41:14
friends with Dean for about a year because when
41:16
I came out against DC Comics and Warner Brothers,
41:18
it made global news for about two and a half days. It was
41:21
surreal to be international news, getting calls
41:23
from news organizations in Europe, articles
41:25
written about me around the world that Superman artists
41:27
is basically, it's like if you were going to
41:29
a restaurant and the chef is standing out front
41:31
saying, don't eat here. You know, that's
41:33
kind of what I did with Warner Brothers, like do not,
41:36
this is horrible what they're doing. And
41:38
so Dean friended me on Twitter and we
41:40
became very good friends, not just professional colleagues,
41:42
but actually like good, good friends. Now we
41:44
talk all the time. And nearing that end
41:47
of that Truth, Justice comic book that was
41:49
quite successful, people really loved it. I
41:52
said, what am I gonna do next? And I talked to Dean about
41:54
stuff and he always wants to promote it. I said, what if I
41:56
did a book? Where Dean
41:58
gets to live out one of those 90s action movies. and
44:00
anger and anxiety I've been through, I've trusted God and
44:02
I wouldn't have it any other way. I do it
44:04
all again, even though I've been vilified by peers and
44:07
insulted by an honest people on the internet. You
44:09
guys know how social media and Twitter are.
44:11
And after a while you just grow a thick skin
44:13
and you just laugh at the weird stuff. So I
44:15
love it, I love what I'm doing. And you guys
44:17
out there, order this today. Order it right now,
44:20
you're going to love it. It's gonna be
44:22
amazing. I've already delivered as an independent comic
44:24
maker in the past, I've got a good
44:26
track record. But if we wanna change culture,
44:28
politics is downstream from culture, right? So we
44:31
gotta show kids what's good, what's possible, what
44:33
they can be. And we show them a
44:35
beautiful story. I'm a Christian and Jesus, he
44:38
spoke in parables sometimes. He would give a
44:40
sermon, right? And it's a parable, those are
44:42
just stories, they're not true. But they give
44:44
a good lesson. And storytelling is the most
44:46
effective persuasion in the world. And
44:48
if you wonder why you see so much hate and
44:50
division and degeneracy, this is where
44:52
it's coming from. It's a horrible entertainment. Teaching
44:55
often more. So support me and
44:57
help the future. Yeah.
44:59
You've created a new solution. It has
45:01
gripped, it has gripped culture. I
45:03
hate the decay of Wokeness to Gabriel. You
45:05
are a bright light in all of this.
45:08
And I'm so excited for your past successes
45:10
and what's to come from you, everybody. Go
45:12
purchase his book. And when we come back,
45:14
we're gonna highlight an interview with the CEO
45:16
of Red Balloon, and then we'll send you
45:18
off into the good night. We'll be right
45:20
back. Welcome back, America. Merry Christmas. Yep,
45:30
just a couple days from that very
45:32
special holiday. Now, keeping politics out of the
45:34
workplace shouldn't be too difficult. But nowadays, one
45:36
could only dream. However, there is a new
45:38
company called Red Balloon. And while you may
45:40
still be unfamiliar with them, you're more than
45:42
likely to remember their viral advertisement from a
45:44
few months ago. Take a look at
45:47
this. When I grow up, when I grow up,
45:49
I want to be hired based on what I
45:51
look like, other than my skills. I want to
45:53
be judged by my political beliefs. I want to
45:55
get promoted based on my chromosomes. When
45:57
I grow up, I want to be offended by my
45:59
chromosomes. to walk around the
46:01
office on eggshells and have my words
46:04
please. My HR. Words like grandfather.
46:06
Peanut gallery. Long time no see.
46:08
No Candice. When I grow up. I
46:12
want to be obsessed with emotional safety
46:14
and do workplace sensitivity training all day
46:16
long. When I grow up I want
46:18
to climb the corporate ladder. Just by flowing
46:20
the clouds. I want to be a conformist. I
46:22
want to weaponize my pronouns. What are pronouns? It's
46:25
time to grow up. It's
46:28
time to grow up and get back to work.
46:31
Introducing the number one woke free job
46:33
board in America. Red balloon dot work.
46:38
45 seconds the greatest retort ever to the
46:40
woke economy. Joining us right now the man
46:42
behind the extraordinary red balloon experience. Andrew Capersenti.
46:44
He's the CEO. Andrew great to have
46:46
you on my friend. Thank
46:51
you and Merry Christmas everybody. Merry
46:53
Christmas. You've given us a Merry Christmas because you
46:55
make us laugh with your ads but you give
46:57
us a chance to find that next job where
47:00
I don't have to put up with all of
47:02
the woke workplace. Tell us about the inspiration for
47:04
your great company. Yeah
47:07
as you guys think about Christmas I remember as a child
47:09
I was a baseball player and my
47:11
parents didn't buy me a new mitt for Christmas so I
47:13
used all my Christmas money to go buy myself a Christmas
47:15
present and so I want you to think about that for
47:17
yourself right now. As you
47:19
are in a job I want you to think
47:21
about how much of the woke environment
47:24
is affecting your worldview affecting your whole outlook on
47:26
life and the way you interact with your family
47:28
and it's probably more than you want to admit
47:30
or more than you
47:32
actually realize and so red balloon dot
47:35
work is America's pro freedom job board.
47:37
It's where you can find companies who
47:39
value the Constitution who value America
47:41
who value the
47:44
lifestyle that we all love and we all believe
47:46
in and you can go and find them
47:48
and go work for them and if you're an employer
47:50
and you think man I would love employees that want
47:52
to show up to work they don't they're not going
47:54
to be whiners but they're going to bring value to
47:56
my company and help me make money because they think
47:58
capitalism is actually a good thing. then you
48:00
should go to redballoon.work. You can post your
48:02
jobs, or you can hand over the recruitment
48:05
process to our team. We have a team
48:07
that's focused on helping you hire people who
48:09
are values aligned. We're gonna save you a
48:11
ton of money in that hiring process. And
48:14
at the end of the day, you're gonna enjoy your
48:16
Christmas way more, knowing that next year you're gonna have
48:18
the employees you need to be successful. And
48:21
it's really, really fun. The other thing that we're doing
48:23
is we're providing a ton of value for people to
48:25
know what's going on in this Freedom Economy. So we're
48:27
doing the Freedom Economy Index with Public Square, where we
48:29
ask lots and lots of businesses, what
48:32
do they think about the economy and
48:34
politics and their business and inflation? What's
48:36
happening in Ukraine? And so if you wanna
48:38
know what's happening in the minds
48:40
of the small businesses in America that actually are the
48:43
lifeblood of our country, you can check that out at
48:45
the Freedom Economy Index. And if you wanna be part
48:47
of that Freedom Economy Index, all you
48:49
have to do is sign up at Public Square
48:51
or sign up at redballoon.work. You don't have to
48:53
pay any money, but you can participate in this
48:55
survey that is starting to turn a lot of
48:57
heads in DC and into mainstream media, because you,
49:00
all of you, you're the
49:02
people who actually matter to America. And unfortunately,
49:04
a lot of people in
49:06
DC feel like they're the center of
49:08
the universe, but the reality is the
49:10
small businesses that make up America are
49:12
what makes this country go. And so
49:14
we love supporting those businesses and redballoon.work.
49:17
We're part of this Freedom Economy and it
49:19
is a blast. So the water is nice,
49:21
jump right in. Ah, I love
49:23
it. I love it. And Andrew,
49:25
I love the ad. I
49:28
love that it points out exactly this ludicrous,
49:30
farcical nature. I mean, it's funny, but it's
49:32
also kind of pitiful. Talk
49:34
to us about exactly how redballoon works,
49:37
because we all know about those other
49:39
job search websites and such, and we
49:41
also know that they unfortunately have gone
49:43
woke. Does redballoon operate similarly,
49:45
whereas a job seeker, you can upload
49:48
a resume. As a job provider, you
49:50
can sift through resumes. You can search
49:52
by category and things like that. That's
49:55
right. So the big job boards in Indeed, and I'll name
49:57
one of them, they canceled answers in
49:59
Genesis. because they thought that Answers in
50:01
Genesis, which is a Christian organization, they have
50:03
the arcing counter, they canceled them because they're
50:05
Christian and they're conservative. And I think that's
50:08
wrong. And so we support the businesses like
50:10
that. If you're a business, it's really straightforward.
50:12
You can sign up, you can post your
50:14
jobs. We're gonna have tens of thousands of
50:16
job seekers looking at those jobs. And these
50:18
are people who have agreed that they're gonna
50:20
show up and not be a whiner and
50:22
work really hard. And if you're a job
50:24
seeker, everything is free for you. You can
50:26
fill out a profile, you can upload a
50:28
resume, you can download a lot of great
50:31
resources like the Employee Bill of Rights. And
50:33
you can use that to be a more
50:35
informed person participating in the labor
50:37
market. So all of that is free to the
50:39
job seeker. And so then the employer, they can
50:41
post their jobs. And then we have a resume
50:44
database that is growing by thousands every single week
50:46
of people who are looking for, to participate
50:48
in the freedom economy, who just want a
50:51
job where they are not gonna have their
50:53
values curve stopped, where they can be free.
50:55
And so every employer on redballoon.work
50:57
has signed a pledge that they think
50:59
the Constitution still matters and that they're
51:02
gonna protect the freedom of their current and
51:04
future employees. That doesn't sound that complicated. In
51:06
fact, every business in America should be able
51:08
to sign that pledge. But unfortunately, we're in
51:10
this very bifurcated world in America, but that's
51:13
okay. It's a great opportunity for all those
51:15
businesses who wanna hire people who are values
51:17
aligned. And redballoon, so post your job, look
51:19
at the resume database, or you can hand
51:21
over the hiring process to us. We'll help
51:24
you write your job posting, we'll do a
51:26
compensation review for you, we'll do a source
51:28
and screen. So we're gonna find people, we're
51:30
actually gonna do a first cultural interview for
51:33
you, so that you don't have to worry
51:35
about talking to someone who's gonna
51:37
give you a lawsuit for asking the wrong
51:39
questions in the interview. You know that the
51:41
redballoon team is just gonna take that over
51:43
for you. And you're only gonna talk to
51:45
values aligned, skillset matching people. Yeah,
51:47
it's an amazing thing you've done, Andrew. It's one of
51:50
the things that was missing from the freedom economy. You
51:52
filled that void, and you made our Christmas a lot
51:54
brighter. By the way, all future Justin
51:56
Hughes job postings, gonna be on redballoon. Andrew,
51:58
