| 0:00.0 | Hey, welcome to Politics by Faith, brought you by the Patriot Goal Group. |
| 0:03.2 | We did a special recently on the First TV, thefirstTV.com, the First TV app, you can watch |
| 0:09.8 | whatever you want, about college. And whether or not this is a good thing to send your kids to. |
| 0:16.4 | This is a good place to send your kids to. Can your kids go to these places and keep their soul? And they're |
| 0:22.5 | not being dramatic. Like, will you send them to these places and not just waste a lot of money, |
| 0:28.5 | but they come back completely totally different people? You've been raising them in a certain |
| 0:31.5 | way for 18 years. And then they go off and they come back totally different. And I got a ton of emails |
| 0:36.0 | from people that that's exactly what happened to them. I feel in terrible form so we talk about that and how we can prevent that |
| 0:42.6 | that's on this special right here on campus collapse America's the greatest country in the world |

| 1:32.9 | genuine place. He and his family were deciding if their high school senior son should go to college |
| 1:38.5 | for marine biology or go to welding school. And we ended up talking about this for like three days on the radio. People called in, got a ton of emails. And it was great. And a really good question. And the dad called back in and said, you know, Slater, my son has a passion for the ocean. So I'll spare you the whole thought process of it all. But the best conclusion, I think, came from my brother-in-law. With the thickest country accent, I can't can't simulate it he said here's what you got to do |
| 2:01.4 | go to welding school become a welder work your brains out for six years and become a master welder |
