00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:00.560
Beautiful.
2
00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:22.800
Hi everyone, I am Jeff and welcome to history. In fact,
3
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:25.199
it is about today. I know I've been teasing you
4
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:27.000
for a couple of weeks, but yes, we are starting
5
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:29.600
to do COSE again. Got a good one today, Matt.
6
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.159
Why don't to go and introduce yourself first.
7
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:34.399
Jeff, thank you so much. I love the format of
8
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:36.079
the show, and thank you so much for having us.
9
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:38.560
It's good to be here, and we just we live
10
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:42.640
in such an unprecedented times in which you know, on
11
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.880
our table right now is a chance to either take
12
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:50.240
back the country, meaning restore the dream where you have
13
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:52.640
the white picket fence, the wife, the kids, and all
14
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:55.840
of that stuff that is still in our grasps, and
15
00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:58.159
I feel like it's slipping away. So we're just passionate
16
00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:00.600
to get to the heart of all these issues. The culture.
17
00:01:01.159 --> 00:01:03.280
Certainly on our show, we're going to bring christ involved,
18
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:05.159
We're going to bring the culture in and how are
19
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.760
those two colliding. But it's so good to have some
20
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.319
fun because we live in a country, in a world
21
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.439
with just amazing history that's had amazing people, and I
22
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:16.599
love how we're going through and highlighting some of those
23
00:01:16.719 --> 00:01:18.879
just you know, when's the last time you thought about
24
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:21.560
thirteen seventy four, when's the last time you thought about
25
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:23.680
nineteen oh two? Because our history is rich and so
26
00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:25.760
I love what you're doing here. Glad to be a
27
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:26.920
part of it, looking forward to.
28
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.239
It, right, and we're going to have fun talking and
29
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:34.319
we're going to promote. Your show is everywhere people can watch, Yeah, we.
30
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:35.920
All yeah, I mean YouTube is a place where we
31
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:37.319
can get a lot of stuff on there. We're on
32
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:40.319
all the social medias and the idea is that we
33
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:43.519
want to put together a show that empowers the individual
34
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:47.640
with their choices on food, medicines, voting. Where are you
35
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:51.480
putting your resources, your treasure, your talent. We've kind of
36
00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:54.280
been on autopilot for so long, Jeff. As far as
37
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:56.920
if I'm a Republican, I vote for this, I don't
38
00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.159
ask any questions. If I'm a Democrat, I'll go for
39
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.280
whatever they're going for. And it had a negative impact
40
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:04.560
on the culture. I don't know if you've noticed right now,
41
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:09.000
the inflation is suffocating. The cost of living is simply
42
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:12.479
unbearable for most families. We've got mothers working full time,
43
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.800
father's working full time, children in daycare all day. The
44
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:19.599
expenses We're living in the most expensive time in America
45
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:22.280
in the history of America. That is a fact. The
46
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:26.800
problem is is that stress, pressure, and expectation is reaching
47
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:29.400
its limits. We can only make so much money during
48
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.840
the day. We can only have so many subscriptions, so
49
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.159
many events, so much tuition to pay for. I just
50
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:39.520
read on Sunday we were doing a piece. Twelve colleges
51
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.360
for this fall are going to have a ticket a
52
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.120
sticker price of a one hundred thousand dollars or more
53
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.759
per year for tuition. And you just have to stop
54
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:49.800
and think, how did we get here? Over the last
55
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.439
five year, colleges didn't cost you know, a couple thousand
56
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:56.240
dollars In the seventies, you know, colleges used to have
57
00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:00.159
to compete for the student by making tuition cost of
58
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:03.319
living affordable at their campuses. And we've kind of made
59
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:06.960
it to where with government student loans, go do whatever
60
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.360
you want. Go get a history degree at Harvard at
61
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:13.000
one hundred thousand pop. And then we'll just let you
62
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:14.840
pay that back over time once you get your job.
63
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.520
And the issue now is we're not hiring college kids
64
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.120
at two hundred and fifty three hundred thousand dollars a year,
65
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:22.639
which is the kind of money you need to pay
66
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:26.039
back student loans, start a family, buy a home. Had
67
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:28.520
a guest on a few weeks ago talking about the
68
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:31.319
average home in America or excuse me, average home in
69
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.960
Colorado right now is four hundred and thirty excuse me,
70
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:38.080
four hundred and sixty three thousand dollars average single family
71
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:41.560
home in Colorado. That's too much. That is a really
72
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:45.240
nice income, and we just don't have those being spat
73
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:47.520
out right now. So we really want to activate people
74
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.960
on their decisions. We want to activate people on where
75
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.319
are you putting your money? Are you feeding the beast
76
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:56.680
and making your own problems worse, or are you recalling
77
00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:00.199
your money you're crawling it back and saying, we need
78
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:03.960
to put my money into things that improve my family's life.
79
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.520
And then also don't feed something that is chewing me up.
80
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:11.240
You know, our cost of living has to be a
81
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:13.159
nine to one one for the president, has to be
82
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:15.560
a nine to one one for your local representatives, has
83
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:17.319
to be a nine to one one in your household.
84
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:20.160
That we cannot just play the status quo, keep up
85
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:24.120
with the Joneses anymore. It really is a financial burden
86
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:26.920
that they've placed on us. Wars don't help. Of course,
87
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:31.680
five dollars gas doesn't help. Energy costs, accelerating those things
88
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:33.759
don't help. So we just want to open up and say,
89
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.560
this is our country. We are your employers. So every
90
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:39.800
politician that currently sits in Washington, d C. They were
91
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.480
sent because of the power of the American citizens vote,
92
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:44.800
and we need to be able to say, you know what,
93
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:46.319
we want to give you this job. We want to
94
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:49.600
give you this opportunity, but here are expectations, and as
95
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:52.560
long as you can keep those going, you're welcome to
96
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:55.160
this role. If you want to get elected ten twelve times,
97
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.399
we don't care because you're serving the people the best.
98
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:01.160
We're not firing employees the rate that we should be.
99
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.160
In fact, if we have any small business owners listening,
100
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:08.519
business people in general, you would never allow these politicians
101
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.800
to work for you. They have underperformed and they've been overpaid,
102
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:13.959
and so as an employer, you would say, you know,
103
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.680
this isn't working out, we have to let you go.
104
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:18.040
We won't do the same thing with our politicians. And
105
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:22.279
so we're asking folks to become empowered again God given
106
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:25.720
rights that you have implore them. You know, there's certain
107
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:29.680
rights that you cannot be interfered with, and they are
108
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.319
interfering with it. We want people to see it, stand
109
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:35.120
strong in their faith, stands strong in their convictions, and
110
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:37.480
say no more. So, I think it's one of the
111
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:42.040
most exciting times to be in America, to be active,
112
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.839
to be activated. We simply aren't going to last at
113
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.000
this current rate. So if we can empower people to
114
00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:50.720
say no, no, no, this doesn't have to be this way.
115
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:53.480
It can be better. We just want to invoke that.
116
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.279
So we're excited every time we're going to meet folks,
117
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:59.639
hear stories here, testimonies and really say, Okay, this is
118
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:01.639
a great country. They tell us it's we're dying for.
119
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:05.000
Let's restore it to that former glory so that we
120
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:06.560
do have that buy in. And we've got to get
121
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:09.279
rid of this so much division. Jeff my goodness, the
122
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.600
idea that we have a two party situation and that
123
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:16.120
we are you know, that's our two choices. It's just
124
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:19.040
not acceptable anymore. Those two choices don't work for us.
125
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:22.079
If you're a Democrat, you automatically buy a default have
126
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:24.199
to sign up for the LGBTQ. You have to sign
127
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:26.600
up for DEI you have to sign up for open borders.
128
00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:28.800
If you're a Republican, you have to sign up for
129
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:33.560
Zionism oversee wars Ai. I mean, all these things that
130
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.480
have come out now are part of this Republican platform.
131
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:41.079
Neither side is serving that blue collar family that wants
132
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:43.600
to have a home, was to have children. You know,
133
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.959
they're not asking for a Cadillac and a cruise every
134
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.959
other month. They're just asking for that peace and security
135
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.000
of Hey, I'm doing a good job at work, I'm
136
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:54.199
working hard, my family's doing the right thing. But yet
137
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.720
we still can't buy anything. We're still so tight, we're
138
00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.560
still so I'm saying that's not fair anymore. That we
139
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:01.639
have this lots of power is way out of whack.
140
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:03.720
Let's bring it back. Let's get a country that people
141
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:07.360
would fight for, that is affordable, that is livable, that
142
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.319
has some purity to it. And I think if people
143
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:14.160
understand it's not Republicans versus Democrats, it's we the people
144
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:18.279
versus this swamp that has taken over the country. If
145
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.079
we can recognize that, the fact that there's what one
146
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:24.000
hundred million of us and a few thousand of them,
147
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.480
I like our chances if we can unite on a
148
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.639
common cause. So it's good to be with you. That
149
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.800
kind of gives a little flavor. You can catch us
150
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:35.759
at the Matthew Dark Show, all your socials, YouTube Rumble,
151
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:37.600
and where everywhere you get your podcast.
152
00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:40.839
Jeff, all right, and that is important. But we're going
153
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:44.240
to go a little light now. Now, do you like
154
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:45.720
to swim?
155
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.560
You know, I do like to swim. I'll be honest
156
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:50.199
with you. Are the neighborhood pools. I don't know if
157
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:53.560
anybody else has got the same phenomena. They for whatever reason,
158
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.319
refuse to heat them just even a little bit. So
159
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.560
I love swimming. I love Glenwood Springs of course in Colorado.
160
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:01.959
Any listener that hasn't been there, you want to have
161
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:05.360
a great time swimming, you take your family to Glenwood Springs.
162
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:08.120
You're sitting about ninety four, ninety six degrees in the
163
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:09.800
spring water. You want to go to the hot tub
164
00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.639
one hundred and four, one hundred and five. So, yes,
165
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.759
we love the water. Our kids are in full swing
166
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:17.519
swim mode this summer. Just heat it up a little
167
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:18.959
bit for mom and dad so we can get in
168
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:27.480
enjoy a little bit too. You know, we're going today, so.
169
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:35.440
It's always so much time to swimming again, so it
170
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:42.840
jumps the water. Today is National Swim a lap day.
171
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:45.919
Now swimming it's probably invented around the time. And no
172
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.720
it's flood No. Actually, all over the world there are
173
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:51.039
cave paintings of people swimming, some of them day back
174
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:54.279
seven thousand years. That's the one exercise you won't break.
175
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:57.080
Its what at now today is it really gets you
176
00:08:57.120 --> 00:08:59.039
to swim laps today is kind of like you said,
177
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:01.279
go to Glenwood Springs just splash around and play in
178
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:03.559
the water. The whole thought is that you know, sooner
179
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.279
or later you'll just start swimming laughs and all that
180
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:06.840
kind of stuff. It is one of the most healthiest
181
00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:10.200
exercises you can actually do in It's low impact.
182
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:13.960
Absolutely. I saw a guy and this really inspired me.
183
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.840
This was last summer, very built guy, super strong guy,
184
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:21.000
and for his cardio he was doing laps and he
185
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:23.279
was a good swimmer. He had good technique. But you
186
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:25.039
want to talk about a full body. You said it
187
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:28.960
low impact and just the pleasure of being outside in
188
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.480
the sun. I mean, it's got it all and swimming.
189
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:33.200
It's dangerous though, because a lot of folks they go
190
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:34.600
out and they think they can swim in the ocean
191
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:38.120
and they're really not qualified. So water, much like fire
192
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:41.919
or cars, should have a safety element to it. But boy,
193
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:45.919
once you are there swimming is it's just a wonderful, wholesome,
194
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:47.120
beautiful activity.
195
00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:49.480
Yeah, like you said, with your kids and everything, it's
196
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:51.440
something that he can actually do as a family.
197
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.879
Too, Yes, one hundred percent. You know.
198
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:55.960
Let's see what's going on in entertainment. On June the
199
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.759
twenty fourth, let's back to your nineteen seventy six No.
200
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:01.039
One album was Wings That the Speed of Sound by
201
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.039
Paul McCartney and Wings. They had the number one song
202
00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:04.279
with silly little love songs.
203
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:08.840
You sing that people, that.
204
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:11.240
Is a silly love song.
205
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:24.440
See it is so some people want to build a word,
206
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:28.559
but silly love songs.
207
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:31.440
Back in nineteen fifty nine, country singer Marty Robbins had
208
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:34.840
a huge hit called El Paso. Then in nineteen seventy
209
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:37.480
six today, Yeah, his follow up to that song actually
210
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:39.879
went to number one again. It was called El Paso City.
211
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:44.360
A city with a legend in the West Texas city
212
00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:51.000
of El Fess. Who where on the core I heard
213
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:59.240
a song about a Texas cowboy and a little place
214
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.840
called Rose used to go and watch this Judy.
215
00:11:04.960 --> 00:11:07.919
The number one book was Trinity by Leon Juris. Did
216
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.240
you ever see the original movie The Omen I did
217
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.960
not well? Back in nineteen seventy six. It was the
218
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:17.279
number one show. Seeing it. The American ambassador over into
219
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:19.519
Britain him and his wife. They might be raising the
220
00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:23.360
Anti Christ starred Gregory Peck, Lee Merrivrick, and Harvey Stevens.
221
00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.559
When he was a little boy. Back in nineteen eighty two,
222
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:29.000
on the British TV show Top of the Pops, this
223
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:32.399
guy Jeffrey Daniels. It was some of the band, shallamar.
224
00:11:32.039 --> 00:11:34.399
You hear them? Yes?
225
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:38.080
Well, he did something that ended up being called the Moonwalk,
226
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:40.639
but at that time no one had ever seen it before.
227
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:42.200
When he did it on Top of the Pops, well,
228
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:44.360
Michael Jackson heard all about it and he had Jeffrey
229
00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:46.799
come teach it to him. So Jeffrey, he said, yeah,
230
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:49.960
you want order my dance I called the Backslide. Michael said, yeah,
231
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:52.279
teach it to me, so he did. Then Michael went
232
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:55.080
on a TV show that celebrated Motown, changed his name
233
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:56.440
to Moonwalk and gets all the credit.
234
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:00.840
I did not know that that is a piece of insight.
235
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:04.759
Maybe the most iconic dance move of all time the moonwalk, right,
236
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:06.279
I think so, because.
237
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:09.159
I mean everybody had everybody nobody could do it, but
238
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:11.200
everybody tried it exactly.
239
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.399
And I think I tried it once or twice and
