Today we remember the great patriot, Charlie Kirk, like a modern day Socrates on the campuses of the United States of America.

I knew Charlie, I can't say that we were close friends, we collaborated together, we did some podcast together. I met him. He is a joyful man.

He was friendly and he was gracious. He was a genuine person to be around. And if you ever been to a TPP USA event or any of these grand events, you know, one thing that's notable about it, Charlie Kirk built this enormous, influential organization. And he always brought other people in. It wasn't just about Charlie Kirk.

It wasn't just like a Charlie Kirk megachurch. So many people surrounding him. And then just

he worked nonstop. And so today I'm going to share some of my thoughts, my memories of Charlie Kirk.

I'm going to talk about my conversations, my public conversations with him on his podcast.

We talked about Catholicism.

And there's two clips going around the Internet.

I'll show them both.

But one is Charlie Kirk talking about the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is very nice.

And then, you know,

for Catholics, I think probably the most Catholic conversation where he talks about Catholicism was an interview with me. And I'll show you a clip of that. He's undoubtedly vocal about his

faith in Jesus Christ.

He was not a Catholic, but his wife, Erica, is Catholic, and he was in Mass.

I hear just about every single Sunday, and my interaction with him leads me to believe that he was moving in that direction.

So who is Charlie Kirk?

31 years old, absolutely tragic ending.

On Wednesday, I was at the gym, and I got a text from Jack Posobic.

There's firing, there's, I don't want to say all the words because the social media overlords, but, uh, something's happened to Charlie.

And at first I thought, huh, is that in public what happened?

So get on my phone and start seeing and then talking to more people that know Charlie.

And then I just kind of got sick and just went out in the parking lot and was in a daze before we knew exactly what had happened.
