Ask Dr. Jesse Friday

and a tree stand. Black bear comes to the base of the tree, starts sniffing at me, starts coming up the tree. Now he doesn't come all the way up right away. He doing this from memory. I would say probably ten feet fast, faster than you think. Don't ever think that bears are slow because they look kind of big and fat. They're fast. He comes up that tree really fast. And now I'm sitting there thinking, well, now

what do I do? He comes up some more another ten twenty feet fast, really fast, and he is not snorting and growling and acting aggressive, if I want to be clear about that. But still I'm in a tree stand and a bear is crawling up the tree very clearly after me. Now I have a rifle in my hands, obviously, that's what I was hunting bears with. Now I'm at the point where I have to aim at him. He comes up again. This time he comes up what I

would consider all the way. He is directly below the tree stand behind it though, so there's no stand or anything between him and me. He's behind it. So I'm standing on top of the tree stand aiming behind the tree, and now I have to aim my weapon at his head. I do not want to kill this bear, as I've already explained, I have no desire to kill this bear. And now I'm sitting here having a real internal debate, and I'm all by myself. There's no guy, there's no dad,

there's no nobody, nobody around for miles. It's me and this bear. I My weapon is probably maybe maybe six inches from his nose. That's how close he is to me. That's where we're at here, and I've just seen how fast he is. For safety's sake, I should probably just pop it. May be done with it, I don't. We have ourselves a good old fashioned little standoff up there.

He's staring at me. My weapon is staring at him, and my finger is I mean, I'm already pressing the trigger as lightly as possible because I've seen how fast the moves. I have to be ready to squeeze immediately or he's going to be on me. I mean, look, just falling from a tree that size, I probably would have died. But no matter what he would have done with too me, and God was with me that day.

He just sat there, sniffed and looked and sniffed and looked and sniffed and looked, scampered back down the tree and took off. That'll get the old heart pumping, Hey, Jesse, I've always been a fan of late night TV Carson and Letterman and later Colbert and others. After Trump's victory in twenty sixteen, the Colbert Show quickly became a solid one third of the show mocking and berating Trump. I always thought going to bed after some good natured comedy

was a healthy thing. Colbert's show did exactly the opposite. Do you think this was a calculated attempt to program my fellow geezer population? Is this how trump de rangent syndrome was created? Okay, well, there's there's a lot to what you just said. The communist knows that he has to repeat the same propaganda over and over and over and over and over again. There's something to that. But there's something else. You know, Why does why does Hollywood

keep making movies that bomb? They'll make a kids movie and they'll gay the whole thing up and it'll bomb. But it's not a one off. They'll do it again the next month. Kids movie, gay the thing up, bomb, Kids movie, gay the thing up bomb. Superhero movie, Oh no, instead of a Superman or something like that, it's a big it's a woman who does spin kicks, bomb bomb bomb. Colbert losing forty million dollars a year doesn't change the thing. I want you to. I want you to. I'll explain

it in this way. I want you to picture. There's a town. In fact, the town I grew up in is actually similar to this story. Bozeman, Montana. There was one high school. Montana's not a big place. Bozeman is considered big for Montana, but it's not big by any means. There was one high school. So if you were a high school athlete and you wanted to play football in high school, you had one option. Now, the coach was fine that this did not happen where I grew up.

But I want you to picture this. What if my coach in high school? What if the high school football coach was horrible and pretty much abusive to the players, hitting them, screaming at him, doing terrible I'm not not talking hard nose football things. Abuse to the players. Well, that sucks. But if you live there, that's where you're dad found work. You want to play football, there's no

other place to go. And so this coach for years and years and years and years and years is cussing and hitting and abusing the players, and cussing and hitting and abusing the players, and they never leave because they can't ever leave. Then, and this actually happened in Bozeman. Another school comes, the population grew the town. I think they voted on it. I don't know what all the details were, but another high school pops up. You're the

head football coach at Bozeman Senior High. You've only ever coached one way, you only know one way to do it, and you haven't ever really suffered a penalty for doing it that way. Because the kids could never go anywhere

and now it's the only way. You know, So as kids who don't want to be abused, who don't want to be hit, who don't want to be cussed at, as they go to the high school across town, you still just keep cussing and beaten and cussing and beaten and cussing and beaten until you've completely ruined the football program. The mainstream media, the large When I say mainstream media, let's be specific the large news organizations television and print.

That's ABC, NBCCBSCNN, New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times. We can go down the list the major media publications. They for decades in this country were the only show in town, the only show in town. My buddy Klay Travis had a great, great little find, research find yesterday, and I'm going to paraphrase because I don't want to

go digging through my phone, but Halk Hogan died. As you know, we talked about it last night, and he talked about HAULK Hogan when he quote wrestled Andre the Giant at WrestleMania that it had more people watching it then I forget what Clay said. It was something crazy like the Super Bowl, the World Series and everything else combined this year or something like that. The numbers were astronomical. Does that show how big wrestling was? Yes, but it

also shows there weren't many channels. Everyone watched nickcause that was all that was on. We all watched the same things. America's evil communist press, including things like The Colbert Show, the Late Night Show. All these people came up and made their bones in an environment where people didn't have options. If you sat down at night on my TV. When I was a kid, I'm forty four, I'm not ancient. When I was a kid, our TV had one of the little click click click knobby things. I think there

were thirteen fourteen channels on the knob. We didn't even get that many. You didn't have options. If you were watching TV at ten o'clock at night. The Late Show was one of like three things on. And the people who create eight our media for the major corporate organizations, they're used to being able to abuse you any way they want, because, just like the abusive football coach, you can't go anywhere you don't have options. The problem for them is people do now. People have many, many options.

You have endless options. You're sitting here right now. Maybe you're listening live on Friday night, maybe it's the next day, Saturday. Maybe you're a podcaster. But how many options do you have for things to listen to? Endless? It's endless. You could be listening to any kind of music on demand immediately, even any specific song. If you want a specific song, pull up your Spotify and open it up. Any podcast on any subject. You could be listening right now to anything.

What that has done is it's put more power in the hands of the consumer who can change the channel. The people who make the media. They're not used to living in that environment and they haven't adjusted. If you are in charge of CBS, the second you see your late night comedy show start alienating half the country, you don't wait. You fire him immediately. Nope, boom gone, people will leave, people will leave. They kept him on. Now

everyone's gone. Let's talk a little America history. Are we militaristic? Hang on? It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday, A wonderful ass doctor Jesse Friday. And remember we're still sitting here live bringing you amazing entertainment. And you can email the show Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. Don't shake your head, Chris, I was only talking about me.

Believe me. I wasn't including you in that at all. Jesse. Actually, this guy says, dear large handed beaver slayer, I have heard you refer to past civilizations as warriors and militaristic, for example the Spartans, some Native American tribes, and the Mongols. It made me think, will history remember America as a warrior nation and a warlike culture? Our national love of guns, like the Germans calling the Marines devil dogs when they first saw them shoot, our first instinct to bomb and

invade and fight. I always like to say we are peaceful and right, but the proof is in the taste of the pudding or whatever you said it was. What say you, oracle? His name is Mickey? By the way, are we militaristic people? Are we a war culture? All right? First? Let me ask you something. Is it bad? If we are? Now let's talk about this is as men, probably not as much women, but some women for sure. As men.

When we talk about historical cultures, what ones do we like to talk about when it comes to Indians American Indians, do you like to talk about the Pueblo or do you like to talk about the Commanche. I know, yeah, but we don't talk about the peaceful ones. We talk about the warlike ones, right, So okay, so we're fascinated. Let's set that aside. Morally, were the Commanche wrong and

the Pueblo were right? Now? Anyone who knows anything about the Comanche Indians and their love of torture, they were huge on torture and rape. I'm sorry to put it that way, but they just were rape and torture and mutilation. And so you look at a society like that and you think, Okay, those obviously are the bad guys. I'm

not saying you're wrong. But if a nation is militaristic, if the Pueblo are out there making their living by hunting animals, raising corn, things like that, are they a morally better culture than the Lakota, the Sioux who ruled the planes and simply took whatever they wanted from anyone they wanted to take it from. Are the Pueblo better? Is Athens a better culture, a more moral culture than Sparta. It's something to think about, because, as you mentioned, I

like to think of us as peaceful. Well, does that mean we're right? Are all militaristic cultures wrong and all peaceful culture is right? I don't know that. I look at they Let's look biblically, Hey, Chris, we'll stick with the Old Testament. Let's look biblically the Israelites when they were settling into the Old Promised Land? Did they come bearing gifts or did they come bearing the sword? They sent in spies, they fought wars, wiped out armies, eradicated

entire cities. Were they wrong? I certainly wouldn't say that. I don't know that all war is wrong. I don't know that all conquest is wrong. And I don't know that all peace is right. Just because you I've never been in a fight. Really you think that's good. I don't know that being nice is correct. Now you want to be kind. There's two different things. But I don't know that being nice is correct. I'm not saying you want to be mean, but is nice right? So back

to your question about America. No, no powerful empire that I can think of. If you want to hit the what are the top powerful empires at any point in time? You could talk about the British Empire. You could talk about the chemitted Persian Empire. You brought up the Mongols. Let's talk about the Mongols all the way back, the Assyrians, all the big Chinese ones. Tell me the large empire, the large, powerful empire that is thought of as peaceful. Oh,

the Romans almost forgot the greatest civilization ever. Can you tell me a large number one power or vying to be number one power on the planet that is considered peaceful. They're all looked at as militaristic because you only gain power in wealth and resources and things like that through conquest. Historically, that's how it's done. You want this gigantic chunk of ground that we now know as the United States of America, Well,

I've got bad news for you. The Brits want it, the French want it, the Spanish want it, and it's occupied by a bunch of Indian tribes. If you would like it, you better pick up a weapon and go take it, because there's no other way. Oh. I think we'll be looked at as militaristic in warlike, and I think that will make us just like every other large

empire in history. It is Jesse Kelly's show on a Wonderful Fantastic Friday, Member if you miss any part of the show, you can download the whole thing on iheard Spotify iTunes. You know, freedom is not free. Let's get back to some questions, Jesse. If you were at a baseball game and caught a foul ball, would you give it to a kid? No, absolutely not. I would keep it for myself. And if I saw any kids that caught a foul ball close to me, I would take

it from them. Jesse. I was just listening to you talk about wages and what people think they deserve versus what they are actually worth. I'm a journeyman lineman. Pay attention, young men, listen to this making sixty seven dollars an hour. Sixty seven dollars an hour. I feel uslignemen deserve and are worth much more than that. The very few people like me who are physically and mentally able and willing to do work with high voltage electricity every day, should

get a much higher wage. Doubt it or double it, and I might start to consider tolerating it. Without people like us, the world would be back to the Stone age. What is your opinion on blue collar guys who actually keep the country running making way less money than those who sit in an office and risk nothing. Please don't say my name. Love your show, look forward to it every day, recommend it to all my friends. Okay, well,

I'll put it this way. Risk risk, The physical risks involved in a job have virtually nothing to do with what you will be paid nothing. You may want that to be the case, but if that was the case, then cops had make a million dollars a year. They don't. What determines what you will be paid is to scarey of your marketable skills. Now, you, as a journeyman, lineman, you have a valuable skill, and it is not that common. That's why you make sixty seven dollars an hour and

not seventeen dollars an hour. However, it is not so rare that you're going to make three hundred dollars an hour. That's just the reality of life. But I have some excellent news for all you men listening who work with your hands, and as you know, that's my background, so I respect it. If you hang on and keep doing a good job, your wages are going to go up in the coming years, and they're going to go up astronomically. Do you remember what Micro told me when we had

that Micro interviews from last week. The week before, I forget what it was. Micro, the great Micro of micro Works, Micro came and joined me u on the shokeause he knows I'm always talking about trades and I'm a construction guy, so he came on the show. Mike Rose said, for every five guys who work with their hands who are retiring, there are only two to replace them. Now, you can point out that that's bad for the country. We're not going to have enough those guys and all that Stuff's true.

That's fine, but you know what else that means? What don't we just talk about what determines your wages? The scarcity of your marketable skills. Those skills you have, they're going to get a lot more scarce. They're getting more and more scarce by the day. Now. I know that may not be a comfort to you today on Friday, with the day on Friday, July twenty fifth, that doesn't increase your paycheck. But you keep working in this field as everyone else retires, your wages will go up, up, up,

up up. But I just want to go out again. The risk of your job does not determine your wages. You compared it to people who sit in an office all day. And I admit, and I've had these thoughts before when I always worked those jobs. Well, this isn't right. That freaking guy's sitting in the office in the air conditioning, in his khakis. He went to lunch, he had lunch catered from some nice place like Red Lobster. I'm out here sweating, slaving, I'm cut, I'm miserable, I'm tired. How's

he making more money than me? His skills are more scarce, that's how Also remember this, you blue collar guys who are listening. I know it sucks to work out in the heat and the cold and the and I know working outside in the elements parts of that can suck badly. Believe me, I've done it all. I understand. It's also it can be a healthier life. You know, you know those Europeans live longer than I. You know they all smoke. Did you know that? It's unbelievable how many of these

people smoke. Every time I go over there, everybody's just chainsmoking. Yet they're all skinny and they live longer than us. How's that possible? They don't sit as much as we sit it's a sitting that kills you. You may look at the guy with the office job and think to yourself, Wow, that guy, he's really lucking out. You're gonna live longer than he is. Jesse, can you explain why all the biggest cities in the USA are sanctuary and are not conservative?

I grew up in Orange County, California, moved to San Diego in ninety seven. Both were red. What happened, Well, that's a long complicated answer, but I'll tell you one of the main things that happened is politicians they make cities a haven. They try to make cities a haven for the poor. Generally, how that goes if you're poor, that's not unique to America. If you're poor, even historically, you are going to gather in poor areas of a city. Gives you more access to things like food and things

like that. Well, as the cities get poorer, as you get a poor element economically, that is going to come with an increase in the crime element. Do not email me and tell me you're offended. I don't give a crep. Everyone knows what I just said is true. With more poverty comes more crime, certainly more violent crime. More street crime, robbery, right murder that always comes with more poverty. What do people do when they make money? What is one of

the ultimate things about making money? As you get older, you live where you want to live. That's why the suburbs exist in every city. You have all these blue cities, and then you have a safe suburb full of homes that are nice and gated communities outside of this. Why does the suburb exist there? Because the second you make enough money to escape that crime, escape the bad school, escape the filth, you pack up the family and you

leave town. Well what's that to if all the good people pack up and leave New York City and they all move to Long Island, which is pretty much what's happened. They all move out of Manhattan and they all move out to Long Island. Yes, your individual life is better, and I've done this. It's not like I live in Houston. I would never live in Houston. I'm out. But your

life's better. My life's better. I live in a safe neighborhood full of the guns, where the kids play in the streets and everyone knows each other and everything is wonderful. But the net negative is Houston gets worse. New York gets worse because the good people the second they can afford it, they pack up and leave town. So it becomes one of those self licking ice cream cones where it's just the spiral that goes down and down and down and down and down. The good people leave, more

poor people come in. The good people leave, more poor people come in. When you combine that with the fact that these despicable politicians know their power in these big cities is handing things out to those poor people because that's where the voting block is, it's just it's very, very difficult to overcome. Jesse, I'm having such a hard time. I live next door to two sisters and a brother in law, all Democrats who've drunk the kool aid and

cannot see the garbage mainstream media is feeding them. I'm losing what I have in common with them, and periodically I have to bite my tongue on the snide remarks that come from them. They refuse to even think about considering a different point of view. Do you have any wise? This is your daddy talking advice. Well, first, I am not going to be dismissive over the fact that that hurts when that's family when it's your sisters, you know,

you grew up together. It's your sisters, they live close by. Surely everybody should be close and stay close, right, and you feel them separating from you and it hurts. So I'm not being dismissive of that, but i will talk to you about that because a lot of people go through that in a moment. The Jesse Kelly Show. Final segment of The Jesse Kelly Show. But don't worry, we will be back on Monday. I might. I want to go ahead and stress might. It's going to depend on

the family schedule a little bit. This weekend. I might be ready to do the Kamakazi history show. I've been promising you.

we call communism or religion. It is a religion. It is, and the religion demands followers adhere to it and reject all others, including family members. It's one of the most evil parts about communism. Since its inception, it has divided families against each other, and in fact, the communists themselves encourage this. We are your new family, now your old family. Either they're on the team or not, but you will choose us over them. American Democrats have this exact same mentality.

They are communists. They probably don't know they're communists. They probably think they're Democrats or liberals, but they are communists. They've been trained by other communists, and they will reject you. That doesn't mean it will last forever. They may wake up one day. But if you have a family member that's a truly committed communist like that, you're going to have to as much as you can keep them at

arm's length or fight it out with them. But what you're not going to do because the communists can operate this way. What you're not going to do is just go along as if everything's normal in the way it always was. Remember, he's fighting a revolution. He doesn't he doesn't set aside politics because it's Christmas time. No, no, no, no, no, he doesn't think in those terms at all. That just

doesn't even cross his mind. The only chance you have at Christmas time of getting your communist's sister to set things aside is maybe maybe if you got her an IQ Sense from Chefman, if you got her a wireless cooking thermometer from Chefman that can handle up to one thousand degrees fahrenheit, there's a chance, your liberal and pagy she would love you so much in that moment that she could she would forget about her sick, demonic religion.

There's a chance. Plus, when you inform her that the IQ Sense it hooks up to an app on her phone, and so whatever meat you happen to be cooking oven smoke er right on the stovetop, you just leave the thermometer in there, you never take it out, and your phone tells you when it's done, even tells you win to arrest it. You could even it has recipes in it. You tell it what it's cooking, it'll tell you what to cook it too. That might help with your sisters.

Plus fifteen percent off chefiq dot com promo code Jesse chefiq dot Com promo code Jesse Jesse, I enjoy the visual Jesse Kelly show. It's a hoot. Now my question, what is your opinion concerning young boys playing with toys like male action figures or Gi Joe dolls. I have mixed feelings as it may cause tiny hands. You know what, that's not very nice? All right? Get your kids all the Gi jos do Gijo still exists, Chris, they do.

Get your kid all the Gi Joe's. And if he wants the aircraft carrier, stop being cheap and get him the aircraft carrier. Gosh, I wanted that aircraft carriers so bad. Jesse. I have three boys, heyes, nineteen, sixteen and nine. I've never believed in letting them win. They do you ever let your boys win at anything? No? No, I believe in smashing them mercilessly, and I always have at whatever we're doing. If you want victory in the Kelly household,

you will go earn victory in the Kelly household. It's not just that I believe in winning. I'll cheat to win if I have to. I'm not at what, Chris, I'm not above that at all. No no, no, no no no. We're not handing out w's around here. This isn't and everybody gets a trophy household. If you want it, go take it. Jesse. You're a great American, you beaver trapper. You have we seen the pinnacle of our country, the

US of A. I don't know, nobody knows. And you can say, well, Jesse, we're on the downturn right now. And I'm not gonna argue with that. But there are countries historically that have had ups and then downs, and then ups and then downs, and then ups and then downs, and they'll they'll look down and out and they'll look fit, but then then they'll rebound. And remember, at one point in time, the Roman Empire, the greatest civilization ever, the Roman Empire flat out split up. Everyone thinks it was

split in two. It was more than two, but we'll just call it two for now. It just split up East and west. Oh, it's over, it's finished, really, because Constantinople. The Eastern Roman Empire kept on churning and burning quite well for a long time, but wasn't over. It was different, certainly, different different locations, different people, but kept churning and burning. Dear communist segue master, why is no one bringing up Obama's weaponization of the IRS against Tea party groups in

his first term. She's right, She's very very right. And obviously that is something we've mentioned several times on the show. But that's what Obama did, as we've talked about before. That's how communists operate. It doesn't matter what level of power you give him, whether it's the pency with a tiny, tiny job somewhere, whatever power he gets, that's power he believes in using on behalf of the revolution. Obama just happened to do it more viciously and better than other

communists have. For Obama, what's the point of being in charge of the IRS if you don't use that power to go after your political opponents? What is the point of being in charge of the CIA the FBI if you're not going to send them after Donald Trump. That's the only reason to do that. Hey, Jesse, shouldn't we want these extremists socialists to win in New York and Minnesota. The national spot Life's been all over these elections. Wouldn't it benefit the American people to see what happens when

we elect communists? The American people have access to endless amounts of books, television shows, podcasts, YouTube channels, laying out very clearly that collectivism, in all of its forms, socialism, communism, whatever ism you want to put on it, that collectivism, in all of its forms ends up in poverty, death, misery, and horror. The volume of information showing that out there is amazing, and yet half the country still chooses communism. We lie to ourselves and we say, well, this will

be such a bad example. People will change their ways. That's not always the case. You put your phone down, go enjoy the weekend. Monday cometh, that's all
