All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their
00:00:04
Creator with certain unalienable Rights, by liberty.
00:00:13
If liberty means anything at all, it means right to tell
00:00:17
people what they do not want to hear.
00:00:42
Welcome back to the big show. Of course I'm your host Lance
00:00:45
Miliacho with my Co host George Ballantine.
00:00:48
Fastest growing show on Rumble. Of course, it's always tip of
00:00:51
the spear. If you're looking for lies or
00:00:53
narratives that aren't true, you're in the wrong place.
00:00:55
You better head over to CNN or MSNBC or one of the other
00:00:58
mainstream media sources because this is always tip of the spear
00:01:02
on this show. Edge of the knife.
00:01:04
Because if liberty means anything at all, it means the
00:01:06
right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
00:01:08
And you know, that's the plan to educate and unify the country
00:01:12
one episode at a time. George B What's going on, man?
00:01:16
Running a gun. And we got a big we got a big
00:01:18
day today. I.
00:01:18
Do I'm I'm excited for this interview because we got TV
00:01:21
Superman gets to meet the real life Superman.
00:01:23
You know what? I'm saying, you know, we went
00:01:27
backstage. Got a bigger smile than me right
00:01:29
now. That is yet to be proven, but
00:01:32
before we kick off, I have some. People saying about.
00:01:34
Today too, it's always hard. Scheduling is always the hardest
00:01:37
part about getting interviews. You know, You get lots of
00:01:39
opportunities. But the great part today, of
00:01:41
course, you guys know backstage we have Dean Cain, actor,
00:01:45
producer, patriot, advocate, and I think a real icon, 200 plus
00:01:50
movies under his belt. And I had no idea an NFL career
00:01:54
that got got, you know, obviously run short by an
00:01:57
injury. And I didn't know about that
00:01:59
when I started researching this. One of the things that sometimes
00:02:01
you don't know about a celebrity or somebody that you've watched
00:02:04
for years on the big screen that you've always enjoyed their
00:02:08
work, but you didn't know the path that got them there.
00:02:10
He's got a really interesting story behind it.
00:02:12
Before we kick it off, I've got to thank those people.
00:02:14
But George, do we want to bring Dean in so that I can he can
00:02:17
join us for the Genesis Gold Group?
00:02:19
Absolutely sponsoring. He's got his prepper bar handy
00:02:22
so I think we should. Die.
00:02:24
Welcome to the big, big show, Dean Kane.
00:02:27
How you doing, Sir? We're doing great, we're
00:02:31
fantastic. You know I love the fact that
00:02:34
you got your prepper bar. Of course we're holding up the
00:02:35
62.2g prepper bar. Perforated, easily broken down,
00:02:39
your choice of three different denominations.
00:02:42
It fits a multitude of needs. You go.
00:02:43
You know that George, myself and now Dean Kane were stackers.
00:02:47
You got to have some gold and silver on hand.
00:02:49
I don't care whether it's for asset protection from inflation,
00:02:52
economic turmoil, or it's unique utility for barter and trade.
00:02:56
The prepper bar is unique as you can snap off a small piece if
00:02:59
your credit cards aren't worrying if your cash is
00:03:01
inaccessible or maybe it's under attack.
00:03:03
We know BRICS nations want to undermine the US dollar.
00:03:06
This makes a perfect gift and a great way to diversify your
00:03:10
assets. Precious metal lovers love
00:03:13
these. They've got them available in
00:03:14
gold and silver. They're in stock right now.
00:03:16
They're exclusively mined and minted in the US.
00:03:19
They're selling out fast. And yes, they do come with an
00:03:22
assay report. And you ask yourself why that's
00:03:25
important Because there's lots of counterfeit gold coming out
00:03:27
of India and China right now. They fit right in your wallet.
00:03:30
They're very slim. This one's in a plastic case.
00:03:32
So don't let that fool you. Head over to the bigmigbar.com.
00:03:35
That's right, thebigmigbar.com. Use all caps prepper for 10% off
00:03:41
on the silver, 5% off on the gold.
00:03:44
Thebigmigbar.com. Dragged me off a piece of that
00:03:49
prepper bar. Yeah, I knew that was coming.
00:03:52
Thankfully, we don't have George doing the Jingle.
00:03:54
I think we were suppressing sales.
00:03:56
And don't forget that QR code is there.
00:03:58
Take a snapshot. You can use it later, but don't
00:04:00
leave now because you don't want to miss even one minute of this
00:04:02
interview. Yeah, George, I did take a low
00:04:04
blow kind of cheap shot. That's what the kids from.
00:04:06
The Bronx, me off a piece of that prepper bar.
00:04:10
Dean, that was not an audition for a singing part of your new
00:04:13
movies. I he well, he can get it for a
00:04:16
for a, for a bad singing part. I can get that too.
00:04:19
I'll give. I'll tell you what, George, I'm
00:04:21
I'm even worse. I'll take it.
00:04:23
Yeah, I Can't Sing either. My dad sung.
00:04:25
My dad was actually on. He was a big deal in in the
00:04:30
Broadway. He was in a bunch of the Rodgers
00:04:33
and Hammerstein stuff. He actually played Curly in
00:04:35
Oklahoma, which was one of their big ones years ago.
00:04:38
He was also the Chesterfield man and he and he sang opera.
00:04:42
He had a great voice. He did not pass any of that
00:04:45
through through to me though. Didn't get it all.
00:04:49
Well, listen, I noticed on your feet and I, even though this
00:04:52
isn't Memorial Day, of course, where a couple days later Tom
00:04:55
McDonald did a song. We have this thing we do, Dean,
00:04:57
on the show called Set the Mood. Let's kick it off, George.
00:05:00
I just thought we played Tom McDonald's song that he kind of
00:05:03
did a shout out for veterans and their families for Memorial Day.
00:05:06
And I saw Dean had posted this on his social media, as had I.
00:05:09
So let's run it there. We go.
00:05:12
It's a time to remember the ones who we lost, the fathers and
00:05:15
sons, the mothers and daughters who went overseas and bought so
00:05:18
we could be free. Believe it or not, they dying
00:05:20
for peace, they dying for speech.
00:05:21
They died in the streets of the Middle East.
00:05:23
They left the family at home and picked up a gun and stormed the
00:05:25
beach. I see a problem.
00:05:27
We've forgotten the fallen. Nobody works on Mondays.
00:05:31
We celebrate and pop bottles while there's soldiers in the
00:05:33
dirt and they all got families who were hurt and the cost of
00:05:36
freedom is a person. They died, so we ain't speaking
00:05:38
German. So eat your burgers and drink
00:05:40
your beers, relax, enjoy your day.
00:05:42
There were funerals and a million tears so we could live
00:05:44
our lives this way. There were widowed wives and the
00:05:47
children's eyes who won't see their dads again.
00:05:49
It's a holiday for the fallen. Don't say happy Memorial Day.
00:06:12
Great song. Yeah, it was a great song.
00:06:15
You know, I I really like the music he's produced.
00:06:17
It's one thing that's great about people in movies and, you
00:06:21
know, singers and artists, they get an opportunity to say things
00:06:24
where we get suppressed. We're still suspended over on
00:06:27
YouTube for putting out CDCS and VARES information.
00:06:31
You guys get to convey a message.
00:06:32
But I want to run through your bio real quick, Dean, and then
00:06:35
we'll get started. You know, you're an actor,
00:06:37
producer, writer. You're a former professional
00:06:39
athlete, which I did not know, best known for your iconic role
00:06:42
as Superman in the hit 1990s television series.
00:06:46
But you have done an incredible amount of work.
00:06:48
You're also in the new adventure of Superman.
00:06:51
You got your education at Princeton University, which I
00:06:53
did not know that about you. You graduated All American
00:06:56
Football star. You signed with the Buffalo
00:06:58
Bills and then a knee injury comes into play which ended your
00:07:02
professional career. Over the past three decades, you
00:07:06
appeared in over and This is Wrong.
00:07:08
This said, 100 films, it's over 200 films and many of them which
00:07:12
I love about you. They're strong, faith-based,
00:07:14
patriotic and family oriented themes.
00:07:17
And beyond acting, you became a powerful voice for the speech,
00:07:20
traditional values, and American ideals.
00:07:22
Your ex account. I love the way you post and the
00:07:25
way you chime in. There's quite a few actors
00:07:27
online that I follow. You're one of them.
00:07:28
And it's because I actually believe in the message that
00:07:31
you're relaying. You're devoted to raising your
00:07:34
son and using your platform to advocate for truth, integrity,
00:07:37
and personal responsibility. You're an outspoken figure in
00:07:40
today's cultural landscape. I think you're really an icon
00:07:43
and you're really, you've become such a strong leader in social
00:07:46
media, which I can't say the same for many actors and
00:07:49
actresses. And first of all, thanks for
00:07:52
joining us today. And and I got to say, you know,
00:07:55
you went from athlete to actor and you told me an interesting
00:07:58
story a few minutes ago that you shared backstage.
00:08:00
Maybe just share some of that in your version for the audience,
00:08:03
because I'd love to hear how kind of the sudden end of your
00:08:06
NFL dreams, which of course had been your your main identity
00:08:11
besides being highly educated. And then all of a sudden, boom,
00:08:14
you're an actor. Yeah, well, I grew up the son of
00:08:19
a director. So my father, Christopher Kane,
00:08:22
producer, directed Young Guns. You know, I was a huge hit.
00:08:26
And it was all the kids that I grew up with.
00:08:28
You know, I grew up with Sean Penn, Chris Penn, Rob Lowe,
00:08:32
Charlie Sheen, Emilio Estevez, Holly Robinson.
00:08:35
We all grew up together. And those guys started getting
00:08:37
into film when I went off to college to be an athlete.
00:08:40
And I had a wonderful career at Princeton.
00:08:42
You know, it was, it was tough academically at 1st and it was a
00:08:45
big adjustment coming from Malibu, CA, but it turned out
00:08:48
great. My closest friends are still all
00:08:51
those guys that I strapped on the helmets with and everything.
00:08:53
And you really bond together and Princeton is a great does a
00:08:56
great job of keeping their network together.
00:09:00
Those are some of the closest friends of my life.
00:09:02
Anytime any of them needs anything.
00:09:04
I'd be on a plane tomorrow. So it's a wonderful thing to
00:09:07
get. But I figured, OK, I get a shot
00:09:09
at the NFLI. Was very happy to get to Buffalo
00:09:12
was a great situation for me, but I got injured and that was
00:09:16
it. So within about two months of
00:09:18
graduating college, three months of graduating college, the two
00:09:21
things that I did really well, we're done school and athletics.
00:09:25
We're just finished. You're not going to make a a
00:09:28
living playing football. It's not going to happen that
00:09:30
you're you're my career ending injury.
00:09:33
I made sure that was over. So I had to start over again.
00:09:36
Very humbling after achieving so much at that, you know, ripe age
00:09:40
of 22. And I decided that I was going
00:09:43
to go into film. I decided that a while prior,
00:09:46
but didn't know exactly sure, you know, wasn't exactly sure
00:09:48
what I was going to do. I started as a writer.
00:09:50
My dad pushed my writing and then I started to make some
00:09:54
money as an actor, you know, doing commercials, doing things
00:09:57
of that nature. And I was like, well, I'll make
00:09:58
some money here and do this, but I pushed everything until I
00:10:01
finally got my break on Lois and Clark.
00:10:03
And that was incredible. You know when you play Superman
00:10:07
and you're always called Superman for the rest of There's
00:10:11
a reason that Superman has a dog, Crypto.
00:10:13
Not not a cat. See a cat?
00:10:16
They don't see the cat, but I'll put it back.
00:10:18
Bella. Bella, the accidental cat
00:10:20
decided to join. And she's got this thing lately
00:10:22
where she wants to walk across my computer.
00:10:25
She's here in the studio with us.
00:10:26
And sometimes she's got in this way where she comes in.
00:10:28
Yeah, that can be kind of disruptive.
00:10:31
If she hits the wrong key and just shuts, everything shuts.
00:10:33
Everything down. Yeah.
00:10:35
So yeah. You hold a school record for
00:10:38
most interceptions in in the season, right?
00:10:41
I hold school, but I still hold 2 NCAA records, George.
00:10:45
Now they're asterisks, if you will, because it's per game
00:10:48
average. So in division, well, what they
00:10:51
call now the Football Championship Subdivision, which
00:10:54
used to be Division One AA. In a career, I had 22 episode, I
00:10:59
had 22 interceptions in games, and then I had 12 interceptions
00:11:03
in 1010 games my senior year. So each of those career
00:11:06
averages, unless somebody broke it this last year, they still
00:11:10
hold because we, we didn't get a lot of games.
00:11:13
We, we couldn't play in the post season because we're in the Ivy
00:11:15
League. We couldn't play as freshmen
00:11:17
when I first got there in the on the varsity.
00:11:19
So one whole year of my eligibility was gone.
00:11:22
But you know, you don't go to Princeton to, to necessarily as
00:11:25
a portal to the NFL. It worked out for a few of us,
00:11:28
but it doesn't work out for that many.
00:11:30
Yeah, but what a great education.
00:11:32
Now you got your degree in history, Eastern philosophy and
00:11:36
current events. I mean, that's that's not a very
00:11:38
typical intellectual path. Not that I'm critiquing actors
00:11:42
in general, but that's really interesting.
00:11:44
And it seems like that kind of probably gave you a really big
00:11:47
worldview. Did that kind of influence what
00:11:50
kind of roles or the direction? You know, when you got done and
00:11:52
said, OK, I've got a reset, no NFL and now I'm going to go down
00:11:57
a different path. Was that part of the kind of
00:11:59
like this is the way I want to go because people tried to push
00:12:01
you in One Direction? Yeah, not at the beginning.
00:12:04
At the beginning I just wanted to pay my rent.
00:12:06
I just wanted to get off my dad's dole and be like, all
00:12:08
right, I'm going to I'm going to take take up for myself.
00:12:11
Dad, I had some of the NFL money.
00:12:12
So I the NFL money back then in 1988 is not what the NFL money
00:12:17
is now. So it wasn't much.
00:12:18
I had a $9 million signing bonus or anything like that.
00:12:22
I was an undrafted free agent out of Princeton.
00:12:24
I had basically the league minimum, which wasn't a whole
00:12:27
lot, but I was super excited to be there and that was great.
00:12:30
So I didn't think that this, you know, you don't start your whole
00:12:33
plan off. At least I didn't, I was just
00:12:35
trying to go day by day figure it out.
00:12:36
I'd write, I'd try to get acting jobs as a, as a, in commercials
00:12:40
or whatever I could get. And I'll just, you know, I'll,
00:12:43
I'll pay my dues. And that's what my thought
00:12:45
process was as I did, you know, better and better and was able
00:12:50
to, to make more, more projects and, and be able to produce
00:12:53
projects and things. That's really where my history
00:12:55
degree came in and my, my, I took my comprehensive exams in
00:12:59
war and diplomacy. Love that stuff.
00:13:03
Wish I had. There's a few roles I didn't
00:13:06
take for various reasons because my son was born in 2000 and I
00:13:10
ended up in a custody dispute and I couldn't leave.
00:13:12
I couldn't do things. One of them that broke my heart
00:13:14
was Band of brothers. I would have been in that and it
00:13:18
would have, it's just, and that was a great movie, great the
00:13:21
whole series. And I just, it just breaks my
00:13:23
heart that I couldn't do that. But I, I became a father when my
00:13:26
son, you know, in 2000 and that changed my entire life outside
00:13:30
of everything. Then I became the priority 100%
00:13:33
and and still is. Yeah, I was primarily, you know,
00:13:36
my daughter was extremely young when I split up with my ex.
00:13:39
We weren't married. It was my girlfriend at the
00:13:41
time. She was only six months old.
00:13:43
So it became a top priority for me.
00:13:45
So that impacted a lot of the things I was doing, you know, so
00:13:48
of course you make decisions. And I think it was the right
00:13:51
decision, you know, to, to, to raise her.
00:13:53
My mom gave me a lot of help, but being a single dad is always
00:13:56
more complicated. But it brings with a lot of
00:13:59
trials and tribulations. So my ex and I were OK.
00:14:03
I can't see. We were fantastic, but it was
00:14:04
reasonable. It wasn't like some other people
00:14:06
had gone through. What was your let me ask you
00:14:08
this, What was your first role? What was the first one you
00:14:11
actually got that? I'm sure that was the one you
00:14:12
got. Hey, I got a part.
00:14:13
What was the first one? Was it commercial?
00:14:15
What was it? Well, I got a couple roles
00:14:18
through having known some people, I guess because my dad
00:14:20
was in the business. So I can't really count.
00:14:22
I'm not going to count those, but I remember getting sort of
00:14:25
my first commercial. And the The funny thing is, so
00:14:29
you spend this time, I got a Princeton, I've been all
00:14:31
American football player. I play for the Buffalo Bills.
00:14:34
I got all this cachet right way to go.
00:14:36
And now they like you and George and Lance, you guys stand up
00:14:40
here, take off your shirts, eat some Doritos and pretend you're
00:14:43
at a party. And that's the audition.
00:14:45
Like, man, I did all this for that.
00:14:49
But you know, there was rumors. I don't know if it's true or
00:14:52
not. Brad Pitt was the, you know,
00:14:54
Chick-fil-A chicken and who knows?
00:14:56
Whatever the you know, whatever it.
00:14:57
Is, you know, I, I don't have any kind of career with yours.
00:15:00
I had a lot of crappy acting. I did.
00:15:02
My first role I ever got was in a Coors commercial and I
00:15:06
remember them telling me I had to trace a trade a case of Coors
00:15:09
beer for a a very very high end stereo system and I remember I
00:15:16
thought I didn't get the role to be honest with you.
00:15:18
Can I understand the cashing agent?
00:15:19
I'm going to trade this 10 or $15 case of Coors or $8 whatever
00:15:22
the hell it is for a obviously a multi $1000 stereo system.
00:15:27
That's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard of.
00:15:31
And I thought for sure I'd burn the interview, but they gave it
00:15:34
to me for whatever reason, maybe because they agreed with me.
00:15:36
But I remember doing it and thinking this is the dumbest
00:15:38
commercial I've ever heard that anybody would want to do it.
00:15:41
And I ended up getting it. But it was kind of like you
00:15:43
said, you run around. I was in pretty good shape at
00:15:45
the time, you know, and they wanted to be, you know, wear
00:15:47
wear a tight T-shirt. I was supposed to be this
00:15:49
college guy that was partying and I wanted to trade this case
00:15:52
of beer. And you know, anyway, one of
00:15:54
those things that was a national.
00:15:58
Those nationals paid pretty well.
00:15:59
You go to the mailbox and those checks just kept coming in.
00:16:04
Four years of that, my friend, That's what I made.
00:16:06
That's how I made a living for four years until I got.
00:16:09
Well, man, and that's big. That really skyrocketed you.
00:16:12
You. There isn't anybody that didn't
00:16:13
watch you as Superman. You know, I watched it in the
00:16:16
90s. I loved it.
00:16:18
And that really made you a household name.
00:16:20
But you know, I have to ask you, of course, with that, there had
00:16:23
to be a lot of pressure and responsibility.
00:16:26
You're paying this really what I would consider a top level
00:16:29
Marvel character. Everybody, you know, everybody
00:16:31
knew Superman. You know, did you find yourself
00:16:33
constantly getting well, he's not good enough as Superman or
00:16:36
he's was there this constant critique?
00:16:38
Oh, I don't know. He's not buffed enough.
00:16:40
Maybe he needs to be bigger. Well, there's was there a lot of
00:16:42
that crap going on? I was always.
00:16:43
Curious about that? Well, fortunately it was DC.
00:16:46
DC Comics, not Marvel. DC.
00:16:48
That's right. I'm sorry, DC.
00:16:49
Does the Marvel guys get mad, that sort of thing?
00:16:51
Yeah. No, there wasn't a whole lot.
00:16:53
So the Internet hadn't really done its thing yet.
00:16:56
So there was no real big social media world.
00:16:59
There wasn't this, this, this, the attacks that you get now
00:17:03
that it was in its infancy in 93 when the show came out.
00:17:06
But I do remember, because I'm Japanese.
00:17:08
I'm a quarter Japanese. My given name is Tanaka.
00:17:11
My mom remarried when I was four.
00:17:13
Yeah, my brother was 6, and we became Kane.
00:17:15
And I remember people saying with the funniest comment that
00:17:20
I, my brother brought to my attention, he said that this
00:17:23
person posted online again in its infancy, wrote we wanted
00:17:27
Superman, not sushi man. We.
00:17:31
We. Laughed to this day.
00:17:35
That's crazy. But it's like that, right?
00:17:39
I mean, yeah, yeah. Can eat you.
00:17:42
Exactly. But I think, you know, at the
00:17:44
end of the day, you did an amazing job.
00:17:46
You know, people loved you. You know, I saw the great
00:17:48
reviews even back then. And of course you got it.
00:17:52
It just went on and on and on. So it was really, it was really
00:17:54
a ground breaking, you know, piece of work.
00:17:57
And I think a lot of people loved you for what you did in
00:17:59
that. But you know what, I want I said
00:18:01
to you backstage, and I want to say it to the audience, you
00:18:03
know, for anybody that doesn't know Hollywood, it's pretty.
00:18:06
There's definitely on everyone one of those sets.
00:18:07
There's a lot of creepiness and darkness going on.
00:18:11
And you know, you have done an amazing job where you really
00:18:15
consistently have taken roles. You've never, you know, strayed
00:18:18
from your faith. You've always been pro America.
00:18:21
You all your, you know, all the films you've directed are value
00:18:24
driven, you know, and you distance yourself from so much.
00:18:27
And we're seeing, you know, I think I think for the first time
00:18:30
the audience may be getting it because of the Diddy stuff.
00:18:32
You know, George, you and I have talked about Diddy and how many
00:18:35
people are involved. Truth is, there's just as many
00:18:37
people involved in the Epstein scenario and Hollywood's like
00:18:41
that. I remember being on Father
00:18:43
Dowling and I remember being on there with, with Perry Mason on
00:18:48
those sets. And Perry Mason, I, I didn't
00:18:51
know that the, the lead actor, I didn't know he was gay.
00:18:54
And I remember he was coming out between takes and he had this
00:18:56
little skinny blonde twink that I guess was his boyfriend that
00:18:59
would come out and sit on his lap.
00:19:01
And I was kind of creeped out by the whole process.
00:19:04
How did you do? I mean, clearly it's because of
00:19:07
your integrity, but how are you able to not get, you know,
00:19:10
sucked into that vortex? Because it's it's powerful out
00:19:13
there. It is I, I think maybe because I
00:19:16
didn't, maybe because I was an athlete.
00:19:18
You know, I even go back and when I was a kid, you know,
00:19:20
there were drugs around. People were smoking marijuana,
00:19:23
taking Quaaludes like they did back in the day or this or that
00:19:25
or the other thing. Nobody did it around me because
00:19:28
I didn't do it and they feel like that.
00:19:30
He doesn't, he's not part of that.
00:19:32
Just don't even don't even bring it up to Dean.
00:19:34
Just leave it alone. Whatever.
00:19:35
I never saw it. I it was there, I guess, but I
00:19:37
never saw it the same thing there.
00:19:39
It's like someone's not going to come up to me and be like, you
00:19:41
know, I mean, I'm pretty, I wear my heart on my sleeve.
00:19:43
It's pretty clear how I feel, you know, about things and I'm
00:19:47
willing to tell people and I'm not going to judge others.
00:19:49
That's just not what I do and that's OK.
00:19:51
They wouldn't bring the the little twink to sit on my lap or
00:19:54
anything like that. Plus I had Teri Hatcher sitting
00:19:57
on my lap which is pretty good. Yeah, that was actually really
00:19:59
good. They just like, you know, that
00:20:02
kind of thing wasn't, it didn't interest me.
00:20:04
It wasn't something that I was interested in at all.
00:20:06
And I think they sort of gauge it.
00:20:07
They like, you know, maybe I can get this guy.
00:20:09
I can get this guy. But having grown up in the
00:20:11
business, having known so many people, seen the mistakes that
00:20:15
Sean Penn made, see the mistakes that Chris Penn made, see the
00:20:17
mistakes that Rob Lowe made, I was like getting Charlie Sheen.
00:20:20
I'm like, I'm not making those mistakes.
00:20:22
I'm not doing that stuff. It's not part of who I am.
00:20:25
All all still good friends of mine, all of them, but not, not
00:20:29
the stuff that I would do. And I but I didn't do it even
00:20:31
back then. I just, it's maybe it's because
00:20:34
my father came in my life and was a very, really, my dad's a
00:20:37
farm boy from South Dakota and he, you know, I, I caught the
00:20:41
belt a few times. I deserve the belt.
00:20:43
You too, huh? Yeah.
00:20:45
Yeah, I deserved it. There was no question I would
00:20:47
think. It was the IT was the wood
00:20:48
spoon, the dog leash and the fly swatter in my house.
00:20:51
I had many a wood spoon broken on me back then.
00:20:53
But, you know, I think that Bill character.
00:20:55
I think. The way they handle these kids
00:20:57
now with some of the stuff that's going on in TikTok, it
00:20:59
just isn't there. And that's, you know, I got to
00:21:01
ask you this, is there any particular one life event off
00:21:04
camera otherwise that kind of changed your perspective
00:21:07
forever? That kind of helped you involve
00:21:09
into the guy that you are now, the guy that we see on social
00:21:12
media, the guy that we see through the kind of movies
00:21:14
you're involved in. Is there anything particular
00:21:16
that really kind of forged you? You know, I had these values and
00:21:20
these morals and these ideals from the very beginning.
00:21:23
I remember a kid in high school who wrote who drew this picture
00:21:26
of a guy struggling, a fit guy struggling with a backpack on
00:21:29
and weights and holding the American flag and struggling to
00:21:32
stand up because it was. And it said, like #1 on it, like
00:21:36
struggling for that, that ideal that is America to me.
00:21:41
I remember thinking that even in high school, junior high school,
00:21:44
I was like, yes, that's me. That's what I believe in.
00:21:47
That's what I want. But what really changed things
00:21:49
for me about speaking out and doing things was when my son was
00:21:52
born in 2000, that it changed my whole world, my life, faith.
00:21:56
Everything changed with that child.
00:21:59
But I also had to fight a custody case for my son when he
00:22:02
was 18 months old. I sued for joint custody because
00:22:04
his mother wasn't letting me see him.
00:22:06
All sorts of other issues. We've since gotten through that,
00:22:09
but it took me 14 months and over almost $2 in cash
00:22:14
to win joint custody and to see how ridiculous that process was
00:22:19
when the attorneys knew how much money I had that I could burn
00:22:23
through. They limited what I could do,
00:22:25
what jobs I could take. They used my job and my work
00:22:28
against me because I wouldn't be there for the child if I have to
00:22:31
go make a movie. It's why I turned down Band of
00:22:34
Brothers and other things. So it's, it's, it's that sort of
00:22:37
thing really ticked me off when I saw how poor father's rights
00:22:42
were. But I also was the beneficiary
00:22:45
of a father in my life who stepped in and adopted me.
00:22:48
And I know how much his guidance meant to me.
00:22:52
And there was no way that I wasn't going to be a father to
00:22:55
my son. So that that made me start
00:22:58
talking about the politics of it, saying this is unfair for
00:23:00
fathers and looking at other things and voicing what I
00:23:03
thought were valid opinions on things.
00:23:06
And, and again, I don't judge other people, you know, leave
00:23:10
the kids alone. I don't care if you're 35 years
00:23:11
old and you wanted to wear a dress, go ahead.
00:23:13
But don't. Don't indoctrinate the kids.
00:23:16
Don't put that them. I, I think everybody should
00:23:20
deserve to make their own choices, but it's the way
00:23:21
they're doing the grooming. It's becoming extremely
00:23:24
sophisticated. We see it on a lot of the
00:23:26
networks. You know, I, my wife and I, when
00:23:28
we're watching TV sometimes like up here comes the transgender or
00:23:32
here comes up, here comes the bisexual couple.
00:23:34
We knew that was coming. At the end of the day, you you
00:23:37
tune in and you don't expect that you're just tuning in for
00:23:39
some normal watching because I'll have stuff running in the
00:23:41
background, whether it's documentaries and other
00:23:43
information as I'm working on our different shows, but it's
00:23:46
really kind of telling. Me the question for him, yeah.
00:23:48
So you were, you were adopted and you're from my and you lived
00:23:51
in Idaho in the beginning. Yeah, I was adopted.
00:23:55
I lived in California. My mom, I have my biological
00:23:58
mother. My dad stepped into my life in
00:24:00
Hollywood when I was four years old, three years old.
00:24:04
He was from Idaho. But Idaho, No, he was from South
00:24:06
Dakota. I'm a reserve police officer in
00:24:09
Idaho and my father's, my biological father's side of the
00:24:13
family was interred at Minidoka in the Japanese internment camp
00:24:18
in World War 2, which is about 45 minutes from where I serve as
00:24:21
an officer. I still never made it over
00:24:22
there. Somebody sent me that
00:24:24
information. So I'm dying to go over there
00:24:25
one day and and that's. Crazy.
00:24:27
That was a dark page in our history here in the United
00:24:30
States. The internment camps.
00:24:31
George, go ahead. You had a question I don't want.
00:24:33
To no no because I heard adoption in Idaho's father and
00:24:35
it almost like he was made for Superman in the movie because
00:24:38
you know he was adopted in a in a.
00:24:40
In Kansas, but Kansas. But it's true though, George,
00:24:44
your point is 100% valid because my dad is a South Dakota farm
00:24:47
boy and he imbued those values upon me.
00:24:51
Which is why when I say truth, justice in the American way, I
00:24:54
believe it 100% because the American way to me is those
00:24:59
small Midwestern values. The ideas of the individual, the
00:25:04
idea of the ability to compete fairly without the government
00:25:07
putting their finger too hard on the scale.
00:25:09
The idea that you can work your pass off, achieve and achieve a
00:25:13
level of success that you want to be able to pass down to your
00:25:16
family and be wealthy, bless you for that.
00:25:18
That's the American dream. That's what people come here
00:25:20
for, the blind justice. And when I, when DC let truth
00:25:25
justice the American way, they let that go.
00:25:28
They lost their trademark on that.
00:25:31
I'm happy to pick up that mantle any and every time.
00:25:34
Vitto. You know, I just have to ask
00:25:37
this because, you know, we've been attacked.
00:25:38
When George and I decided to do this show, we were already on
00:25:40
social media and I, you know, I recognize what was going on in
00:25:44
the country. I'd worked for the government
00:25:46
years ago and I kind of knew that there was plenty of
00:25:48
corruption. I'd worked as a government
00:25:49
contractor and Halliburton, Blackwater United Defense, Sabre
00:25:54
G4 SI, worked around the globe in a lot of different locations,
00:25:57
training people in CQB tactics, hand to hand techniques, that
00:26:01
sort of thing. And I'd seen a lot of corruption
00:26:03
internally, you know, but we've been one of the things I told
00:26:06
George and we both agreed to is we would never sell our
00:26:08
integrity or morality. There are some deals out there.
00:26:12
They've they've been offered to us to try to shut us up.
00:26:15
We were offered out of an agency out of Chicago, some pretty
00:26:17
significant money about a year and a half ago.
00:26:19
We turned it down because I felt like they wanted to control the
00:26:22
narrative, you know, knowing that you're both a director and
00:26:25
an actor. How much direct backlash have
00:26:27
you faced from the industry? Because let's face it, people
00:26:31
like Weinstein and others, they're very judge mental.
00:26:34
They want to be able to control the actors and actresses in
00:26:36
their envelope. And you know, of course the
00:26:40
sponsors that are involved, the investors are involved.
00:26:43
Have you faced a lot of that or have you been able to basically
00:26:45
stay outside of that because you you're, you're basically a
00:26:48
really well-rounded guy that has the ability to produce movies
00:26:51
and otherwise? Well, I did.
00:26:53
I have that ability and that has helped me a lot.
00:26:55
But Hollywood is full of cowards.
00:26:57
Nobody will tell you right up front that this is what it's
00:27:00
about. They won't say that.
00:27:01
Listen, I don't like your political views, so you're out.
00:27:04
You're I'm a sworn deputy sheriff.
00:27:06
They'll be like, I don't like that, that you're actually a
00:27:08
real officer. I don't like that.
00:27:11
So you know, they don't have that.
00:27:12
They don't have the nuts to say that and they won't say that.
00:27:15
You know, they don't like my faith-based films.
00:27:17
They won't say that. It'll be something like, you
00:27:19
know, I'll have them come look at my film little angels.
00:27:21
It's coming out and they'll they'll come in and they'll say,
00:27:24
hey, we love it. It's great, wonderful.
00:27:26
We'll we'll make an offer on it tomorrow.
00:27:28
And this happened to me to this particular company and I was
00:27:30
like, great, here we go. And it was a company I wanted to
00:27:33
work with. And then the next day I called
00:27:35
to make the deal and they said it's over.
00:27:38
And so that sort of quiet blacklisting, that kind of quiet
00:27:43
turning the back on you exists completely.
00:27:46
And anybody who is come out and spoken, you know, into the to
00:27:52
the affirmative in the conservative sort of world or
00:27:54
make faith-based movies gets turned into outcasts.
00:27:57
And that happens all the time. But they don't say it that way.
00:28:00
However, when people watch movies, like if people go watch
00:28:03
little angels and say, well, this is like Mighty Ducks, we
00:28:06
love it and family start going, then, then I'm even less I'm I'm
00:28:11
even more immune to to that that stuff coming out of the the
00:28:15
studios and from people like a Harvey Weinstein who never hired
00:28:19
me by the way, which is the whole point he.
00:28:21
Wouldn't hire. Yeah.
00:28:22
And while we're talking about Little Angels, let's just jump
00:28:25
into it really quickly. It's your most recent film.
00:28:27
I know it's going to be available June 6.
00:28:31
George, I don't know if you want to grab that short trailer clip,
00:28:34
but basically this is it's it's about you, a hotshot college
00:28:38
football coach. You're suspended and sentenced
00:28:40
to community service. You're forced to coach a ragtag
00:28:43
girls soccer team, learning humility, teamwork and personal
00:28:47
growth along the way. Let let's.
00:28:50
George, let's play the clip. I think we've got it there at
00:28:52
the bottom. I can throw that up.
00:28:53
Yeah. And the poster.
00:28:54
Yeah. So.
00:28:55
And then I want you to comment on this because, again, since
00:28:57
we're on it, we want to talk about it.
00:28:58
Where is it going to be available in movie theaters
00:29:01
nationwide? Theaters on June 6.
00:29:03
You can go to Little Angels movie.com and it'll and check
00:29:07
for theaters in your area. All right, it's great.
00:29:09
Let's play the clip, George. And that's the reason the United
00:29:12
States is a constitutional Federal Republic and not a pure
00:29:15
democracy, because pure democracy is just mob rule.
00:29:18
It's like 2 wolves and a lamb deciding what's for dinner.
00:29:20
It's always going to be the lamb, yeah.
00:29:21
Nice burritos, Diablo, Sal listo all.
00:29:24
Right. Hey, coach, what is for dinner?
00:29:25
Carne asada con frijoles tiaros OK.
00:29:33
Come on. So I get the reject in time out,
00:29:37
time out. There's no time outs in soccer.
00:29:42
Get off the field. Coach Yeah, we got the website
00:29:46
up right here so everybody can see it too.
00:29:47
Little Angels, movie.com. Yeah.
00:29:49
It looks great, looks funny. You know, at the end of the day,
00:29:51
I love the impromptu constitutional education.
00:29:55
Most people, you know, we were showing.
00:29:57
The film. I wrote the film, so you know, I
00:29:59
put that in there. Yeah, and I love it.
00:30:01
I love that it's got a message. We talk about.
00:30:03
I don't know if you've ever seen.
00:30:04
We had a gentleman that writes books.
00:30:05
He's been highly successful. It's the What's Britfield
00:30:09
series. And he kind of ties in the
00:30:11
reality of what's true, what isn't true.
00:30:14
It's an educational series. He's done hot really well.
00:30:16
He's going to, he's going, he's actually in development on
00:30:18
movies right now to bring the series out.
00:30:20
But it's interesting when you talk about what the truth is
00:30:24
about how our founders and framers created this country,
00:30:27
how many people are confused about calling it a democracy
00:30:31
when it's really a sovereign republican.
00:30:33
Of course it's, you know, it was created in such a way that it
00:30:35
wasn't supposed to end up like a monarchy.
00:30:38
But we got a uniparty in DC. That's very clear at this point
00:30:41
that it's all David Copperfield when it comes to the smoke and
00:30:44
mirrors. It's a sleight of hand.
00:30:46
You know, one group actively destroying us, the other group
00:30:48
saying they're going to fix it and we're going to have another
00:30:51
hearing or another committee. We're going to subpoena people
00:30:54
and then nothing happens. George, let's go on here.
00:30:58
So let's talk about the injury. You know a lot of up.
00:31:02
I know that means we got to take a short break 1st and come back.
00:31:06
We're going to be talking about reinvention here on the Big Mig

00:36:38
Jonathan. Rose Trust IRA product is off

realize that company Animus technologies.

I like his value. System.
00:37:18
I like his beliefs. I don't know if he's back or
00:37:21
not. Hopefully we're going to have
00:37:22
him on on Friday. Because he like, he, he misses,
00:37:25
he loves the banter we give him, you know, because.
00:37:27
Yeah, we're joke around a lot. Yeah, besides the fact that
00:37:29
everybody. From England, gets that
00:37:30
California. You know, everybody, when you
00:37:33
put anybody on from England on this show, they immediately
00:37:36
assume that they all went to Cambridge or Oxford and they're
00:37:38
just geniuses. Because, you know, that accent
00:37:40
makes you sound like you're the smartest guy on the planet here.
00:37:44
A couple of kids from New York or the Bronx, they're like,
00:37:46
okay, well this is dumb ass. Maybe he can tell me how to cook
00:37:49
eggplant. I think that's about it.
00:37:52
I spent like 3 weeks in California for like a school or
00:37:55
class and the people out there just they don't have no sense of
00:37:58
humor. Just a long time ago, they
00:37:59
didn't know what to do with me, they thought.
00:38:01
I was offending them, I explained.
00:38:02
Them No, I'm just just being sarcastic.
00:38:05
Like what's I, I. Left.
00:38:06
I left California and went right to Jersey for college.
00:38:08
So I've known a a couple of folks like you, George.
00:38:11
I've got that sense of humor and I appreciate it, and they're my
00:38:14
closest friends in the world. Yeah, You know, sarcasm is a
00:38:18
second language. Of course.
00:38:19
It really toughens you as a kid, you know, because we're all
00:38:21
chopping on each other all day. That's all you did as a kid in
00:38:24
New York. I grew up in Fordham Rd. in the
00:38:26
Bronx. So it was just natural for us to
00:38:28
just cut on each other. But the problem is, George is
00:38:31
right. Even here, I'm in Colorado, the
00:38:32
socialist state of Colorado, I'm afraid to say.
00:38:35
And I've got to tell you, it's difficult because people
00:38:37
sometimes, you know, I'm saying something and they the sarcasm,
00:38:40
I get these looks and I'm like, all right, listen, we won't
00:38:42
shave any puppies bellies today. We'll just move on from here.
00:38:47
Just they, they look at me like I'm out of my mind.
00:38:49
It's not easy. Some guys get me a lot of them.
00:38:52
Don't you know, man, I want to go in.
00:38:54
George, let's jump in. I'm going to let you go.
00:38:56
Take the lead here. This is, you know, everybody.
00:38:58
A lot of people always have a life changing moment.
00:39:00
They deal with strategy. I mean, death, injury, whatever
00:39:04
it may be. So you had a career ending
00:39:06
injury. You know, you spent your, your
00:39:08
career spanning sports, entertainment and activism, but
00:39:12
you got hurt in your first, I'm going to say it's your first
00:39:15
love playing football, right? And making it to the NFL.
00:39:18
That's why everybody, a lot of kids that play in college, they
00:39:20
want to make it there. And you were there.
00:39:21
You got injured at what? Like what drove you, what gave
00:39:25
you the the energy to like to bounce back from that and just
00:39:30
strive? What would you injure?
00:39:33
Your knee? My knee, my right knee, I lost
00:39:35
my lateral meniscus and I blew off all the cartilage on the
00:39:38
femoral head and I had bone on bone.
00:39:40
And it was worse than we thought when it happened.
00:39:42
But I'll tell you what it was. You know, my dad said it early
00:39:45
on to me. He said because I ran hurdles
00:39:46
and stuff. I ran track, I played baseball,
00:39:49
I played volleyball, I played everything.
00:39:50
My dad said your greatest asset is the your unwavering optimism.
00:39:56
He said, you know, when I was running hurdles, Ronaldo
00:39:58
Nehemiah was the world champion. And I love Ronaldo like Edwin
00:40:01
Moses, I loved him too. And they were just amazing.
00:40:04
But my dad said if you lined up with Ronaldo Nehemiah for the
00:40:07
110 highs, you honestly believe you might have a shot.
00:40:12
And I'm like, well, he might get a bad start.
00:40:14
He could hit a couple hurdles. I don't know.
00:40:16
He's like, but that's The thing is that you believe you might
00:40:19
get there. And something about that is, is
00:40:23
is wonderful. He said keep it.
00:40:25
Keep it, keep it, keep it. And coaches and players and
00:40:29
people always try to tear you down.
00:40:31
It's the same thing in my business as an actor.
00:40:33
They're always trying to tear you down.
00:40:35
They're always coming after you. Just you got to have that thick
00:40:37
skin and move on. I think it also helps that I was
00:40:40
wasn't that smart. So I thought, you know what, I'm
00:40:43
not done. I'm going to come back.
00:40:45
I just believed that I would make it back.
00:40:47
I was probably in the third year of Lois and Clark, you know, 29
00:40:52
years old before I realized for real.
00:40:55
I'm not going to go back to the NFL.
00:40:56
That's over. Wow, but it's but it's, but
00:41:00
it's, but it's crazy, right That that you know, that
00:41:03
perseverance. You just like, like you said a
00:41:05
minute ago, George and I get attacked a lot.
00:41:07
Of course, when you're over the target and, and whenever you're
00:41:09
doing alternative, I call investigative journalism or
00:41:12
whatever you want to define what we do.
00:41:14
You know, we get death threats in our emails.
00:41:16
We come out with a story and some people are very angry.
00:41:19
It's how you respond to that as a kid from New York and George,
00:41:22
of course, also being from New York and New Jersey, you know,
00:41:25
it takes, you can't get under ours.
00:41:26
You know, you can talk a lot of shit.
00:41:28
So even when I was trying out for parts, if I got some
00:41:30
critique afterwards through my agent or what, otherwise I was
00:41:32
like, God, whatever, like I'll get the next one.
00:41:36
You know, the, the truth is a lot of that stuff really does
00:41:39
help you because of course your upbringing and of course it
00:41:43
sounds like your father's influence and, and being in
00:41:45
sports, you just recognize you can't harbor that stuff.
00:41:49
You have to move on quickly if you want to be successful.
00:41:52
Also faith, because God gives his toughest battles to his
00:41:55
strongest soldiers. Yeah, no doubt.
00:41:58
And about faith, The funny thing is, you know, there's times, and
00:42:00
I say this to people often, it's like you sit there and you're
00:42:03
like, man, I need strength. God, please give me strength for
00:42:07
this. And God doesn't just necessarily
00:42:09
give you strength. He gives you the ability to show
00:42:12
your strength and earn your strength.
00:42:14
And that's just it. He's not going to solve your
00:42:16
problem for you, but He'll give you that obstacle to overcome.
00:42:20
You know, if it's faith, if it's money, whatever it is that
00:42:24
you're struggling with, God isn't necessarily going to just
00:42:26
solve it for you, but he'll give you that opportunity where you
00:42:29
have to say, OK, I get it. I'm getting you.
00:42:32
I want strength and you're giving me the opportunity to be
00:42:34
strong. I will be strong now.
00:42:36
Yeah. And I think it's how you hone
00:42:38
those tools you're given, right? You're given these gifts.
00:42:41
It depends on how you perfect them.
00:42:43
That knowledge base or that really resilience, it comes from
00:42:46
those battles. You know, you have often said
00:42:49
that being a father is your most important role.
00:42:53
Custody battles are never easy. You became a, you know, a full
00:42:57
time single dad, which I know what that's like.
00:42:59
I had my mom to help me. I don't know how your family
00:43:02
helped with what you were doing, but of course, you passed on
00:43:04
some roles. Well, what I love, I was
00:43:07
scraping your social media. Like I said, I was scrolling
00:43:09
through in preparation for today's interview, just trying
00:43:12
to get a feel. I watch your stuff all the time,
00:43:14
so I see what you're posting regularly.
00:43:16
There's quite There's a handful actors.
00:43:18
I watch what they do simply because I enjoy.
00:43:20
Like Neil McDonough. He was another one I enjoy.
00:43:22
Yeah. I like what he has to say.
00:43:24
I'm live. I also like the integrity of
00:43:26
what he's what he's done in Hollywood, the same thing.
00:43:30
And there's others, of course, I like Mel Gibson.
00:43:32
He's always stood up for, you know, the right thing.
00:43:35
He's never really folded. But you, you, we, I, I grabbed
00:43:39
this photo and this is a picture of you praying at the exact spot
00:43:43
where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist and probably one of
00:43:48
the one of the holiest sites on the planet, I think.
00:43:52
How was that you did that with your son?
00:43:54
I don't know. Tell me about the trip and maybe
00:43:56
give us a little bit of details, a little insight.
00:43:58
So that was one of the for me, one of the most amazing moments
00:44:02
in my life, and it's why I have it as my pinned post on my ex
00:44:07
bio is there is my my son was at a Christian high school, just
00:44:11
graduated. We were, we were on a long trip
00:44:14
going through a lot of, I do documentaries and I was doing
00:44:17
some documentaries about at the time I'd done one about the
00:44:20
Armenian Genocide. And then we were, we were in
00:44:23
Armenia before this. Then we popped over to Jordan
00:44:26
and then we went over to Israel and did a thing on anti-Semitism
00:44:30
and we were going through all these historical sites and
00:44:32
talking about things. But this is one of those
00:44:34
advantages of going to Princeton.
00:44:36
Ghazi bin Muhammad, Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad of Jordan is, you
00:44:40
know, his uncle is, is King Abdullah.
00:44:44
I told Gazia we were coming in. We talked with him and worked
00:44:46
out where we could come in and do some things.
00:44:48
He is in charge of all cultural and religious affairs in Jordan.
00:44:52
So he had discovered this baptism site.
00:44:57
It's called baptismsite.com, I believe, and you can check it
00:44:59
out, 'cause people have attacked me for it.
00:45:01
That's that's where he was baptized.
00:45:03
Where's the river? You know, it's been couple
00:45:06
thousand years and the rivers been diverted and so on and so
00:45:09
forth. So they went through all their
00:45:11
archaeological stuff. The whole place was mined before
00:45:13
they cleared it out and they figured out that this is where
00:45:17
they believe that the baptism took place and The Cave for John
00:45:22
the Baptist, all these places. So Prince Ghazi allowed us to go
00:45:26
down there. He doesn't normally, they don't
00:45:28
normally let people go down. But he said, and it's, and this
00:45:30
is a guy who's been a friend of mine for 30 plus years.
00:45:33
He's one of the foremost Muslim scholars in the world, Islam.
00:45:37
He knows everything. And he's again the head of all
00:45:39
cultural and religious affairs in Jordan, which is 80 percent,
00:45:42
85% Palestinian. And he, he allowed us to go down
00:45:47
there and he said, you know, if you and your son want to go down
00:45:49
there for a second and take a moment, you know, go ahead.
00:45:51
I was like, wow. So we went down there, my son
00:45:54
and I and we, we went down there and said a nice, a nice prayer
00:45:58
together. And it's one of those places
00:46:00
that feels like the, the air is thin between heaven and earth.
00:46:06
And it was just a truly amazing thing.
00:46:08
And that's my favorite human being on the planet.
00:46:11
And my boy there, and he still lives with me now, he graduated
00:46:15
college and moved back in with me, which I'm very happy, happy
00:46:17
about. And he's my best friend.
00:46:20
And that was just one of the greatest moments ever to be able
00:46:22
to share that with your children.
00:46:23
Man, that's great it. Was unbelievable.
00:46:25
Unbelievable. Really blessed that, but just
00:46:28
question is, does he work with you?
00:46:29
Is he in the industry? You know, what does he do?
00:46:32
Does he's a he's, you know, like all the kids these days wants to
00:46:35
be a YouTube or streamer, those things.
00:46:37
But he he studied video game design in college at High Point
00:46:41
University, which by the way, High Point University, a God
00:46:44
family country school. Amazing.
00:46:48
They do a heck of a job. You know, Georges shirt would
00:46:51
not get get him shunned there people be like nice shirt, bro.
00:46:54
That's the IT is a nice shirt. I got to be honest, you know, I
00:46:57
wear my stuff, my Patriot stuff on planes, anywhere I go.
00:46:59
Nobody says anything to me. It wouldn't, it wouldn't.
00:47:02
It wouldn't be work in your favour anyway, so.
00:47:06
Yeah, exactly. And I wear the same kind of
00:47:08
stuff. Yeah, they're selective.
00:47:10
They're selective about who they attack.
00:47:12
Usually because of my size. I'm about, I don't know, I'm
00:47:15
probably 240-5250 something 61. They usually don't have any
00:47:20
comment on it. Usually they kind of give me an
00:47:23
extra berth. But George is really vocal.
00:47:25
He gets lots of swag. Of course, all the companies
00:47:27
want to get the shirt on, but I, I think this is a great story.
00:47:30
What a great moment. And fortunately, you had a
00:47:32
photographer in the perfect position to take that shot
00:47:34
because that is just an iconic image in itself.
00:47:38
Did you? Did.
00:47:39
You travel anywhere else besides there in Jordan when you were.
00:47:42
Over here, all over in Jordan, we were in, we were, you know, I
00:47:45
mean specifically in Jordan or outside or.
00:47:47
Outside, because I mean, I've been to Israel.
00:47:49
I was at, we were everywhere. The Carmelite Monastery, Church
00:47:53
of Mount Carmel. I've been to a bunch of places.
00:47:55
Nazareth. Yes, we didn't go to Nazareth.
00:47:58
We didn't go to Bethlehem. We didn't go to Nazareth, but we
00:48:00
were at, you know, we were at, we were at Petra, we were at the
00:48:03
Wadi Rum desert. We, we camped outside in the,
00:48:06
you know, with the Bedouins. We I was pretty.
00:48:09
How was Petra like? I never been to Jordan over
00:48:11
there, How is Petra? Petra is amazing.
00:48:13
It's incredible to see. It's kind of just in the middle
00:48:15
of freaking nowhere. I mean, you're driving along,
00:48:18
you're like, man, wow. But and then if you go stay at
00:48:21
one of the Bedouin camps, we stayed at the Wadi Rum, I can't
00:48:25
remember the name of it, but it was amazing.
00:48:27
We loved it. But it's where my son would tell
00:48:29
you to this day, he had the best rice he's ever had.
00:48:32
They were making a big old thing and it was just phenomenal in
00:48:34
the way they were making the bread and it was just
00:48:36
incredible. So Wadi, I mean, so, so going
00:48:39
out to Petra is amazing. But I would say go to Wadi Rum
00:48:41
as well. If we went all over Israel, we
00:48:43
were, you know, we were up in Masada.
00:48:46
We were, we were, you know, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
00:48:49
We were all these different. We got to see incredible stuff.
00:48:53
That was the greatest trip. If you ask my son that we've
00:48:56
been all over the world. I've been to 5658 countries.
00:48:59
My son's been to most of them with me.
00:49:01
We've seen some crazy stuff all over, you know, whether it's
00:49:04
Africa or Asia or wherever. We've been to most of these
00:49:07
places. That trip to Jordan was his
00:49:10
favorite trip ever. You know by that with Israel.
00:49:15
I think that's. Incredible international travel.
00:49:18
Just let me comment this international travel from all of
00:49:20
us. I think it's such an eye opener.
00:49:22
I think I've been to 71 countries now and I think it's
00:49:24
important is just, there's just something to embrace in every
00:49:29
one of these countries or something to be learned.
00:49:32
And I think it really changes your perspective when you look
00:49:34
at it as a political narrative. You start looking at the world
00:49:38
in a different way. And I always hope that the
00:49:40
unification of what happens around the globe, if we can stop
00:49:43
these kinetic events, part of it is because people like us have
00:49:46
travelled and you see the things from a different perspective.
00:49:48
When you're on the ground, it's different than what you see in
00:49:51
the media. So take it.
00:49:52
From there George so yeah, when so when we're travelling through
00:49:54
Israel, we actually went travelled to Lat where it's
00:49:57
right on the border of Egypt it's like a vacation spot stay
00:50:00
there then we drove into Egypt and we stayed a few nights there
00:50:03
I mean first of all the sand is so hot you can't walk barefoot I
00:50:06
don't know how it was by you but sleeping at night in these
00:50:08
cement like huts it was so hot you like you can't breathe you
00:50:13
just they. Sleep up.
00:50:15
They sleep up on top. Yeah, it's in the roost.
00:50:18
Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty Las Vegas.
00:50:21
It gets hot out here, but I have this wonderful invention called
00:50:24
air conditioning and I love it. Yeah, no kidding.
00:50:26
You got to have that in your trailer.
00:50:28
It doesn't matter where you're at.
00:50:29
Literally when you order to beat like in Egypt, you walk in the
00:50:31
sand. You can't walk barefoot.
00:50:33
It's so hot it burns your feet of.
00:50:34
Course, that's why if you. Look at a lot of people that
00:50:36
live there, like especially like all those people, their feet
00:50:39
just like so hard and it's just like they're so beat up from
00:50:42
they're able to walk on it. You know, wearing a sandal.
00:50:46
I love the food. My problem is I love the food
00:50:48
maybe too much. That's the difficulty.
00:50:49
You get into these different cultures and I like eating
00:50:52
what's there. And I'm not very uneasy.
00:50:54
I'm not one of those guys says, oh, only steak and potatoes.
00:50:56
I'll try anything at least once, you know, and that and that when
00:51:00
you go to these different places, it's interesting to
00:51:02
really get entrenched in that. So but.
00:51:04
You know, like people get the wrong perception about over
00:51:07
there because from Israel to even down at the end of Egypt,
00:51:10
I've been to Bahrain. The people are so welcoming.
00:51:14
Like Bahrain. You have your like, you know,
00:51:16
your City Park. But then if you go into town, we
00:51:19
have just so like your, you know, they have the regular like
00:51:22
simple stores. People make pottery and stuff.
00:51:24
It's you have authentic food and it's just like the people they
00:51:28
invite you, they're so welcoming.
00:51:30
Don't invite your house and bring you coffee.
00:51:32
I mean, I've got a place where they had bowls of cigarettes for
00:51:34
people that just smoke cigarettes.
00:51:36
They offer you cigarettes. It's crazy how they are you're.
00:51:37
Like, here's a bowl of cigarettes for you.
00:51:39
Yeah. They're so welcoming and so
00:51:41
wonderful. It's true.
00:51:42
And they don't hate Americans. No, I find most people love
00:51:45
Americans. And they just, they they're
00:51:47
curious about what it's like over in America, and they always
00:51:50
aspire to go to America. That's my that's my 56 country
00:51:54
experience. Yeah, no matter where I went to,
00:51:55
I know. You know, but that's part of it,
00:51:57
right? We, we know that the narratives
00:51:59
are controlled. We see it with mainstream media.
00:52:01
We covered that today, yesterday on our show, we were talking
00:52:05
about how dangerous fake news is.
00:52:07
And of course, we know that it's controlled because even when it
00:52:09
comes to kinetic events, we never really hear the truth
00:52:11
unless you're on the ground. And, you know, and it's
00:52:15
interesting, I don't know if you ever saw that compilation.
00:52:17
We played it on the show yesterday about it's a threat to
00:52:20
our democracy. And you see all these, you know,
00:52:23
clips from all these news agencies all put together where
00:52:25
you can see that they were given the script.
00:52:27
And they just did it recently with the Trump ambushing the
00:52:30
South African president. It's an ambush.
00:52:32
It's an ambush at the end of the day.
00:52:36
You know, it's, you have, you really have expressed a lot of
00:52:39
stuff about your traditional values, you know, religious
00:52:42
freedoms, moral clarity. You know, you, you must see a
00:52:46
ton of scripts. I'm sure everybody's trying to
00:52:47
pitch you a script at one point or another.
00:52:49
Do you find that that's helped you to really get to the scripts
00:52:54
that are going to make a difference, whether they're
00:52:55
going to, you know, whether they end up on Hallmark or maybe
00:52:57
somewhere else? Do you feel like your values
00:53:00
have enabled you to see clarity in the scripts that you say?
00:53:02
This is an important script because I love the message.
00:53:06
To some degree, yes, but and other ones.
00:53:09
Some you make because it's a great action bit and it's
00:53:11
entertaining. Or it's this or that or you play
00:53:13
the bad guy. Like God's not dead.
00:53:15
Playing the bad guy, the one completely irredeemable guy and
00:53:19
gets no redemption whatsoever was great fun.
00:53:22
But but you know, you got to choose, pick and choose.
00:53:24
So I think a lot of those films and projects come to me now
00:53:28
because because of my openness to it, because of my desire to
00:53:33
want to make. I make this one company I work
00:53:35
with called JC Films that makes a lot of lower budget, smaller
00:53:38
faith-based movies because he he's trying to get people,
00:53:42
Christian, young Christian film makers involved with the
00:53:44
not-for-profit thing. I do eight of those a year
00:53:47
probably for him. And and that's a wonderful thing
00:53:50
to do to try to change the culture because Andrew
00:53:52
Breitbart, who was a good friend of mine, I coached his kid back
00:53:56
in the day when I was coaching my son in, in basketball and
00:53:59
baseball and things of that nature.
00:54:01
He says, you know, politics are downstream from culture before
00:54:04
he passed. And he's right.
00:54:05
And so if you were having these things, we were, we were
00:54:08
playing, you know, these movies and doing these things.
00:54:10
I can't tell you when I travel how many people stop me and
00:54:14
thank me for making the kind and movies that I make, for speaking
00:54:18
out about the positive things about America, for speaking out
00:54:22
against, you know, women competing in men's sports and
00:54:25
things of that nature are men. I'm sorry, men competing in
00:54:27
women's sports. Women can go ahead and come and
00:54:29
compete in men's sports, go ahead, but but having men
00:54:32
compete in women's sports just wrong and stuff like that.
00:54:34
I mean people tell thanking me constantly and I almost never.
00:54:39
You get the opposite where someone says you know, hey I
00:54:41
want to, I want to argue with you, go ahead please.
00:54:43
If you have a better argument maybe you'll change my mind.
00:54:46
I'll be honest. By country you I would thank you
00:54:48
for the films you've done because I think they they all
00:54:51
have merit. I think at the end of the day, I
00:54:53
see a lot of stuff that's out there that in my opinion, it
00:54:55
doesn't matter whether it's a big budget or otherwise.
00:54:57
It's total garbage. I don't like the messages, I
00:55:00
don't like the narratives, I don't like the lies.
00:55:03
You see the messages, right? You're like sitting there
00:55:05
watching and you're like, here they go.
00:55:07
Here they go. Here it comes life.
00:55:09
And I do that all the time. Oh, here it comes.
00:55:11
Here's the weird, here's the weird twist.
00:55:15
You know, recently, man, you, you, you got a Tesla.
00:55:17
I congratulated you on that. How, how is that Tesla?
00:55:20
And of course, you seem to be a tech guy, You know, you're, you
00:55:22
seem to be all about AI and EVs. Kind of tell me, how's the new
00:55:26
Tesla, man? How is it?
00:55:27
First of all, it's my Dang kid because he's a tech head.
00:55:31
So he was like, you know, dad, you know, we got to check this
00:55:33
out. But I when Elon was getting all
00:55:35
that heat, I, you know, I don't like, don't tell me I have to
00:55:38
get an electric vehicle. Let me make that decision, make
00:55:41
good ones and do whatever. Don't mandate it like California
00:55:44
did. That ticked me off.
00:55:45
So it made me anti this and anti that, but I don't want to be
00:55:48
told what to do. I got my big Ford Raptor.
00:55:51
I love it. It's great.
00:55:52
Well, you know, and I got my Aston Martin, which is a hot
00:55:55
rod, and I love that. And I was thinking, you know,
00:55:58
they're going after Elon so much.
00:55:59
And I was just like, this seems wrong.
00:56:01
And I've been sort of threw it out there jokingly, which, which
00:56:03
model Tesla should I get? And the responses were
00:56:06
overwhelming. And then finally I got in touch
00:56:08
with some Tesla people and I said let me check them out.
00:56:12
I had once to me the next day, and that sucker was amazing.
00:56:16
I listen, I love my Aston Martin.
00:56:18
It's incredible. James Bond drives the Dang car
00:56:21
and it's fast and whatever. Yeah, my Tesla Model S Plaid is
00:56:26
the fastest vehicle. I have never been in my life.
00:56:30
It feels to me. And I have the yoke steering
00:56:33
wheel. Yeah, it looks to me like I can
00:56:36
take off. You hit that thing and now
00:56:38
you're gone. I was like, what is this?
00:56:40
Plus, everything about it is so intuitive.
00:56:43
I was trying to figure out like, I was like, where do I change
00:56:45
the mirrors? My son was like, well, and it's
00:56:49
all on the screen and the things.
00:56:50
And then of course, it makes total sense to the kids who grew
00:56:52
up that way. My son got a Tesla as well.
00:56:55
So, so we, we, we embrace the Tesla's, the incredible
00:56:58
technology, the car updates itself with software.
00:57:02
I mean, it's unbelievable that my, my iPhone charges while it's
00:57:05
sitting there and things are, I mean, it's, I love the vehicle.
00:57:09
I love it to death, but don't tell me I have to get one.
00:57:13
Even Trump want one. I saw his.
00:57:16
I posted a picture. I was at the White House not
00:57:19
that long ago and. I think he might have just made
00:57:20
the the next Tesla commercial. I think we're going to short
00:57:23
form this. We'll put an Elon in it.
00:57:25
You. I think you're going to be in
00:57:26
the next commercial because I don't know if it is next.
00:57:28
Listen, the resounding the resounding reviews on that car
00:57:31
are always off the chain. They're always positive.
00:57:33
Do you have the self driving? That's always made me a little
00:57:35
weird. I don't know if I'm comfortable
00:57:36
enough to do the self driving. That's what I said hands on guy.
00:57:39
I don't know if I can do it, Dean.
00:57:40
I think I'm too OCD. I said, no way.
00:57:45
My son puts me in my car and he goes, Dad, we know let's, you
00:57:48
know, pick where we're going whenever I put it in, blah.
00:57:51
Because it's so easy to do the navigation, This is where we're
00:57:53
going. He goes, OK, just start driving.
00:57:55
I was driving. He goes, now press this button.
00:57:58
I press the button, he goes, take your hands away.
00:57:59
And I was like, so I sat there like this for the first, you
00:58:04
know. Were you clenching?
00:58:06
Were you clenching? That's all I want to know
00:58:07
because I would probably clench. I was.
00:58:08
Passing diamonds. I mean, I was so clenched and
00:58:12
then it just drove brilliantly. And the thing about it that's
00:58:15
sneaky is you get used to it. I mean, I thought, no way.
00:58:20
I got used to it so fast that the car was like, yo, pay
00:58:24
attention, pay attention. You're not.
00:58:26
Because I was just like starting to be like.
00:58:27
Yeah, you're making a sandwich. You're over here, you're
00:58:31
texting. Wait, you're on social media?
00:58:33
What'd you say? The car said.
00:58:34
The car didn't say pay attention.
00:58:36
You're just saying. That the car said.
00:58:37
Pay attention. It gives you warnings.
00:58:39
For what if it's self driving? My hands weren't on the wheel at
00:58:41
all. And I think, I think what it is,
00:58:44
I think I picked up my phone for a second and it's like, hey,
00:58:47
hey, you know. Self driving mode.
00:58:51
It did that. In self driving mode, it still
00:58:53
wants me to be alert. I mean, you can't take a nap, is
00:58:55
that it? He said.
00:58:56
He goes, he goes. Look, you have two eyes, right?
00:58:59
And you're looking, Your two eyes are looking for things.
00:59:01
There's nine cameras going all the time.
00:59:03
Yeah, it's better than your eyes and I.
00:59:06
Think they need an upgrade though.
00:59:07
I want to see it with different voices.
00:59:09
I'd like to have it like a New York.
00:59:11
Like maybe an Italian mom's voice.
00:59:14
Hey, maybe a Bronx. Wise guy voice where it goes.
00:59:16
Hey, stop fucking around, you got to pay attention to the
00:59:18
road. The beauty is.
00:59:20
The K's at each you got to fix it.
00:59:22
One software update, it's done. Yeah, yeah.
00:59:26
I'm thinking we need that, yeah. I thought you could take a nap
00:59:29
if you put in. Self driving.
00:59:31
The self driving, I'm telling you it's incredible, but I
00:59:33
thought you could take a nap. You're going on the highway just
00:59:35
like. Just.
00:59:36
Could well they take a nap. There's videos of people doing
00:59:38
that, but yeah, that's. Frightening to me.
00:59:41
Can you keep saying put your hands on the steering wheel?
00:59:45
No, it did on mine. It doesn't do it on my son's.
00:59:46
I don't know what I was. I was doing something wrong,
00:59:49
George. I was doing.
00:59:50
I would think I was. I think I was, you know,
00:59:51
flexing. It was being a bad boy window.
00:59:54
Tesla knows you're being a bad boy.
00:59:55
I got straightened out a little bit, but then then I had a
00:59:58
little medical procedure the other day and I was in the car
01:00:01
my son drove me to and from and they were stopping to pick
01:00:03
something up. He and his girlfriend go inside
01:00:05
and I was like, I'm gonna sit in the car.
01:00:06
And he goes, OK, we'll put it in dog mode.
01:00:08
I'm like what? They put it and hit a button, it
01:00:11
goes dog mode and it says on this big screen it says I forget
01:00:16
the exact thing was like I've not forgotten in here.
01:00:19
The temperature is at 68°. My owners will be right back and
01:00:22
it's got a dog on the thing. So I sat in there and dog mode
01:00:25
I. Had no idea that it even had a
01:00:27
dog that. Was pretty cool.
01:00:29
I mean, which is great, though at the end of the day it's great
01:00:31
because you think about people that leave their dogs and their
01:00:33
cars, their pets, they get overheated.
01:00:35
I've always hated that. I had no idea it had a dog mode,
01:00:38
but that's more the more genius of Elon Musk and his staff over
01:00:42
there. This guy's just brilliant.
01:00:43
Have you noticed you don't hear a lot of slack on Doge lately
01:00:46
since he's like, he's pretty much says he's leaving.
01:00:49
I don't. Think he's truly leaving?
01:00:51
He was the target, of course. But Doge is still continuing.
01:00:55
It's just allegedly. He's not going to be there
01:00:58
allegedly, but you know you can remote.
01:01:00
Work though. Hell yeah.
01:01:02
So like, he's not paying attention.
01:01:04
Well, you know, he bought that penthouse right across from Mar
01:01:07
A Lago. I don't know if you knew that he
01:01:08
took 3 units. He bought them anonymously and
01:01:12
combined them into one massive penthouse.
01:01:14
He's right. I was at Mar a Lago about, I
01:01:17
don't know, 40-5 days ago or so. I went to an event there and I
01:01:20
and I was being told about this by somebody that knew he has
01:01:23
line of sight. I have a feeling that was
01:01:25
because he wanted to have this communication network where he
01:01:28
could talk to Trump without a bunch of people being involved.
01:01:31
At least it looks like that. I'd be remiss not to ask this.
01:01:34
Yeah. You know, you're really
01:01:36
passionate. You, you know, you're
01:01:38
articulate. You're well experienced.
01:01:41
Any political aspirations? I mean, I look, I know you
01:01:43
already got your own thing, but California's effed up.
01:01:46
I mean, we need to get Newsome out of there.
01:01:49
I could see somebody like you easily winning out in California
01:01:53
because you're you're popular. I think you're well liked.
01:01:57
Any thoughts about this or is this is this, you know, forget
01:02:00
it, Lance. It's, it's a dark cesspool.
01:02:01
I can't step into it. It is a dark cesspool.
01:02:04
I will say that for sure. You know, I don't know.
01:02:06
It's not something I aspire to, which is one of the reasons when
01:02:09
I said this, when I say that people are like, well, maybe
01:02:11
that's the reason you might want to consider it because I don't
01:02:14
look, I'm not trying to be Nancy Pelosi going in making $210
01:02:17
a year and be worth, you know, $210 million 75 years later.
01:02:22
She's been in forever. I mean, it's clear what these
01:02:24
people are doing when they're coming in, you know, and they're
01:02:27
making all this money based on being a politician.
01:02:29
They want to do it forever. I don't.
01:02:31
We weren't set up that way. We were set up to be regular
01:02:34
business people who would come in and a part time politicians.
01:02:37
So I don't like it. I in fact left California.
01:02:40
I left California two years ago. I live in Las Vegas, NV now I am
01:02:44
out of California because they drove me out.
01:02:47
Horrible. Regularly.
01:02:49
Horrible tax policies. Well, they could use you in Las
01:02:52
Vegas, that's for sure. Of course, that's a different
01:02:54
environment because of the gaming.
01:02:56
The gaming makes it different, but there's no state income tax.
01:02:59
You know, you have a, it's a castle doctrine state.
01:03:02
It is a stand your ground state. It is open carry state.
01:03:07
There's so many things I love about data and, and it's great.
01:03:10
And we have just absolutely thrived out here.
01:03:13
But, you know, California is so broken, you know?
01:03:16
Did you ever see American Psycho?
01:03:19
Patrick Bate? Yeah, that is Gavin Newsom.
01:03:22
Whenever I want to post something about Gavin Newsom, I
01:03:24
just grab a picture of Patrick. I agree with you, but you know.
01:03:26
Up there, he's psycho. He's just he's, he's, he's a
01:03:30
sociopath. I think really.
01:03:32
Look at his behavior and the way he models himself and the
01:03:34
mirroring he does and the dialoguing.
01:03:37
It's the hand gestures and the duplication of thinking.
01:03:40
This is going to work, but there's something overly
01:03:42
detailed, nothing creepy about him, and he doesn't realize that
01:03:45
it really comes through. You can tell he's not really
01:03:48
being himself. You can tell he's a much worse
01:03:50
person than what he portrays publicly.
01:03:52
He's thinking Patrick Bateman, man.
01:03:54
Yeah, yeah, I think you've nailed it.
01:03:57
You know, I want to make sure we give you some time.
01:03:59
You know, first of all, I want to thank you for all the time
01:04:01
you gave us. Amazing.
01:04:02
Real quick. Yeah.
01:04:03
Oh, please, George. Vegas.
01:04:04
You ever go to a restaurant in Marrakech?
01:04:07
I've not been to Marrakech but I'd love to.
01:04:08
It sounds like it's Moroccan and lovely.
01:04:10
Yeah, next time you go there, just tell.
01:04:13
Tell the owner you know me. Done.
01:04:15
Write it down. Yeah, amazing place.
01:04:17
The food is amazing there. In George's place.
01:04:19
There's George. What's the relationship there?
01:04:21
Is he your uncle? What is he?
01:04:22
Your that guy. Cousin.
01:04:24
He's your cousin, yeah. He's originally from Jersey.
01:04:26
Have to do in Las Vegas. More restaurants to go to, more
01:04:29
shows to see UFC fights. I mean, it's got yeah plus.
01:04:34
Wait, we got even a better thing for you?
01:04:35
Lance and I are good friends with Signal Chatter, the Nevada
01:04:39
US attorney. Yeah, that Trump appointment
01:04:43
should be great. You, bro.
01:04:45
