What's up everybody welcome back to Cooper's of all right all right all right this film sound of freedom comes out and before you even know it you're involved in a culture war and all you wanted to do was go see a film and I am completely lit up now I'm I'm going to rant a little bit but I can't even compare to the epic rants of my friend Graham

0:29.9

Alan with the dear America podcast so I hit my friend Graham I'm like dude what is going on with the pushback against this sound of freedom film will explain what's going on but say hello to our good friend Graham Alan friend of the show friend of mine how you doing buddy yo yo yo man at this point we should just do a joint show and then we should just co anchor the show together at this point you you you are dear America's most most often guest and I'm

0:59.9

I've got to be near in the top now for Cooper stuff I've got to I've got to be yep me and Billy Holloway but that all well what what what are the two so that's right that's very very good of you to to notice and I'm glad that I'm like that on your show too because absolutely man things are getting flippant we're now you were mad the other day you were upset I'm you liked it didn't you you like it deep down you know that I like confrontational time

1:29.8

type things like it's like it's something that the Lord works with me on quite quite often you know how some people they like a void awkward confrontation I'm like that person is like you get a little talk you know you just go and you know where that you just go

1:44.8

you know I'm the guy that's just like I'm relished in it like it's it's not a good characteristic that I have and so I have to like push it way down but there was that little bit I was like ooh jones spicy today this is going to be this is going to be good yeah man no it's um

2:02.8

it is this this pushback with the sound of freedom I don't think it's the sound of freedom I think it's just sound of freedom sound of freedom is it is you wrote me about it and I think I don't

2:20.3

remember exactly what I said I think I think I said something along the lines of you know why is there all this pushback to blah blah blah blah and and sometimes the most simplistic answer is

2:31.8

and oftentimes it is this way the most simplistic answer is oftentimes the correct answer and so you know before we get deep down into it I think the listeners should think to themselves as we discuss this why would anyone that be a person a media outlet a journalist outlet whatever why would a person be anti an anti child

3:00.8

sex trafficking movie and ask yourself that question but all the other questions as we go along and then you know oftentimes the answer that you would immediately have to that oh they're a pedophile or or anything like you know just bam whatever the first thing is your my that's where we are ladies

3:21.8

gentlemen I mean we we are there I what we are witnessing people actively going against an anti child sex trafficking movie and it is absolutely insane yeah I mean I when I started laughing when I got you they were your text backs you're like sometimes the simplest answer is just the answer I'm like that's why like Graham it's like hey you know what we're

3:47.3

going to overthink this boom and I like but I feel like I need to rewind because some people might be like yeah I don't know what they're talking so I apologize everybody I started this thing because I'm still mad from the day all right so film comes out called sound of freedom and his Jim Cavigials the main star based on true story of a guy called Tim Ballard who was a what what what what what was he actually working for the US government

4:15.3

Homeland Security yeah all right so home is secured all right so anyway real life stories of going and saving children from these you know sex trafficking rings all right which is obviously a real thing and so by the way you can still see me right yeah I got you there my

4:34.3

as always yeah something we're just happened to my screen here so anyway so this comes out and they originally it was going to be I can't where it was going to be released but then Disney bought up whoever they're going to buy from the Disney

4:49.3

shelled it they don't release it next Netflix wouldn't release it so you end up going with angel studios angel studios does the chosen and so it's more of a you know I don't know

4:59.7

conservative or religious funding whatever you want to call it it became a culture war thing and so I get all of that what I was not

5:08.7

expecting was this let me read you a couple headlines so people know what we're dealing with here what I was not expecting was the movie comes

5:15.8

out and it ends up you know crushing on its first week or I shocked I think it brought in 19 or 20 million in that first four days

5:23.4

that's not right like 42 43 now or something like that that's right and so I think because of that it gets all his publicity right I expected I

5:32.4

expected the left to not to like it and yeah this is a conservative film and and blah blah blah blah blah but I get it but I I

5:40.4

got admit I did I'm so naive I never expected this reaction this is the guardian the title of the article is sound of freedom the
