Let's go.

Welcome to Citizen.

We have a special guest today.

Kyle Grothews,

I just found out how to say your name because it's weird.

Sons of Liberty Gunworksworks co-founder uh everybody knows mike he's been on the show before and then of course you've got a new

venture that we'll get into you but before we do that let's talk about you all right what do you want

to know um who's your daddy and what is you, that's wrong.

That's a kindergarten cop. Yeah, I love that movie. It is one of the best movies of all the time. It really is a good movie. Like one of the top 10 movies. I really want to show the kids probably when they're, I don't know, what do you think age appropriate for kindergarten cop is? I was just thinking that too. My kids haven't seen it. Yeah, my kids are seven and ten.

They're probably, I don't think the seven-year-old would get it, but the ten-year-old would probably get out of crack. That's the problem is getting it because a lot of the old classic, even Disney movies for the six- and three-year-old just aren't registering yet. It doesn't make any sense to them yet. maybe, which makes me wonder,

did it make any fucking sense to us

when we were watching his kids?

Probably not. yet. It doesn't make any sense to him yet. Maybe, which makes me wonder, did it make any fucking sense to us when we were watching his kids? Or it was just like noise. Because they watch a Christmas story. That makes sense. Because there's a story art. That's a very adult themes in Christmas story for sure. I don't know. We'll figure it out, I guess. Where'd you grow up? So I grew up in Holodistis to Southside San Antonio. So I've been in San Antonio most of my life. Now I live in Fair Oaks, close to Bernie out, you know, that way. Went to high school there in San Antonio at Central Catholic, which is basically a cult, you know, or everybody. I still hang out with high school friends, which most people don't. My wife thinks that's crazy I I still hang out with people from high school pretty good cult then yeah go to high school yeah we have the gala for you know donate money to the school you know we have the gala in a couple weeks it's a it's a thing Mike went there that's how I knew Mike he was four years ahead of me he seems like a cult Well, he seems like a guy who escaped a cult.

As long as a cult doesn't have a lot of work involved. He's busy work's not as man. Yeah, yeah. No, it's, it's like, uh, uh, he's, he hates authority so much that you can see that he might have had some experience with somebody trying to control him early on. We joined one.

He got me into Fiesta's big thing, San Antonio.

So we joined another group called the Canseos that support Fiesta.

And Mike's kind of stepped out of it because it's, it's fun getting in and being exclusive, like, hey, I earned my way in, but putting on a uniform and showing up to marching parades and, like, actually do things, like, not his, not his things. Yeah, I wouldn't do any of that bullshit either um so uh what'd you do

after high school so after high school I went to Texanm Galveston so uh stayed there was thinking

about transferring the main campus what kind of ag can you do in Galveston uh not much man it was all

we're the only branch campus but it's all ocean stuff every one of our majors was ocean things my

my majors in maritime admin which is like running a port. Oh, that's cool. And I was in Navy RTC, and I, you know, I got, I bought it with my unit down there. So I stayed. I never transferred. That actually makes a lot of sense. And probably, probably better than an NBA, to be honest.

I have one of those two.
