The Well, hello, my friends, and welcome to the Ted and Austin Brower show, bringing you the latest world news and health research. I hope you guys are having an

absolutely awesome Independence Day, July 4th, 2023. It's a great day. It's been 247 years since the

Declaration of Independence was officially adopted by Congress.

And I've got some history I'm going to cover here and just kind of remind people what this country was built on and what it really officially started on.

It started on freedom and honor.

And there's a lot of things that I think people need to continually look back on from history to be reminded what this country has been through and what it took to get this country as magnificent

as it was and why it is so important that we continually demand those freedoms and those rights

be respected by any and all. There's something that's very interesting. As I was talking to

a buddy last night, we were just kind of having an old school history lesson about a lot of the

stuff that started and all of this. And, you know, I've talked about it in detail and I'm going to

talk about it again here is, you know, the battle of Lexington and Concord that started the

American Revolutionary War that the battles April 19, 1775,

in the Providence of Massachusetts Bay, and within the towns of Lexington and Concord.

And what's interesting about this is a lot of people don't understand what actually started

this engagement is that the Massachusetts colonial government started to form what was called the Provincial Congress and started calling for local militias to train for possible hostilities with regulators or redcoats because the British had become so invasive.

And you can see this in depictions of certain films that are pre-revolutionary

war and going into it on how the British would pretty much do anything they wanted. They would go

into a bar or a pub and all the red coats would essentially run up a bill. They wouldn't pay it.

They'd come over to property and they'd say, listen, you've got a nice 10 bedroom house here on your plantation.

You have to house all the British soldiers in here.

And you've got to do all of their laundry.

And you've got to feed them.
