This is Charles Cook for National Review here at Seabag.

I'm here with the Benham Brothers.

I actually wrote about you guys a while ago when the whole

HD TV situation flared up and as you can hear I'm not from the United States

originally and I say to people who ask me about speech in this country, it's not really the government you have to worry about at the moment, it's market pressures, its advocacy groups.

So what's it been like?

Well, it's been quite a while right.

I mean, Jason and I are, we're the first guys to say,

H.G. TV had every right in this country to fire us if they wanted to.

That's okay.

We have nothing against them.

But you're correct in saying

that the market pressures right now and the coercion that's happening in the

marketplace it's not the right to believe it's the right to voice your

beliefs with your freedom of speech

that's coming under pressure right now and and Jason and I wrote in our book

whatever the cost that if we don't first of all as Christian stand up for what we believe, whatever the cost.

That's a tenant of our faith.

But secondly, as Americans, these freedoms that we have, especially the freedom of speech and the

freedom of expression, freedom of religion, we have to stand up for those whatever the cost. So it's

been exciting to see how many people are hungry for courage in America, but it's

also been very scary to see the onslaught and the attacks that are happening in the marketplace right now.
