I am unashamed. What about you?

Well, welcome to our first Hillsdale Friday episode. This is brand new for us. We have a different group around the table. Me and Alistair here. We threw Jace out. We've actually been ripping Jace behind us back for the last 15 minutes, which was epic. We should have put that on here,

but I think we got an upgrade with you guys. Christian Huff, welcome. Thank you. Happy to be here. I don't know if you can combine us. I don't know if we'll talk as much as Jace will, but we're going to try to add as much as we can. John Luke. Yeah, we can. Yeah. Are you going to pick up the mantle and just talk the whole time? I will. Well, this is a third time

I've been on ashamed. And the first time, I don't think I said a single word. I literally never said a word. Were you on with your dad? I was on with dad. And I never got in. I felt bad for you, John Lee. Yeah. It's very hard with those too. Welcome to my life. The second one I got like a sentence at least and now I'm back full force.

So this is like multi-generation here.

I feel like we've got

well we got 60 40 you're about to be 30 30 and then 27 27 so we're obviously talking about

a college course Hillsdale College and we have very different college experiences,

I'm sure.

Like you guys like went away and went to college, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

See, for me, I was like, not sure what I was going to do.

So it was a little college, a little duck call, a little school of preaching, back to

college.

It was like spread out over 20 years.

But in a sense, in a way, it's like everybody has their own way to learn. So it's helped me. But I didn't have like the college experience like you guys. Well, I did go away for college, but I didn't finish. So now I'm back in college. I went away to college and finished. I'm still in college.

But don't you feel like, John Luther, the more, I always felt like the older I got, the more I appreciated the material. Like when I was first there, when I was, you know, 19 or 20 years old, and even though I just got married, you know, I was sort of like the other kids. I was, oh, I get this thing over with and what kind of do to get out of here as fast as possible. And in the older I got, the more I began to realize that, you know, I was sort of like the other kids. I was, I got this thing over with and what kind of do to get out of here as fast as possible.

And the older I got, the more I began to realize that, you know, this stuff's pretty interesting. Like, if you just listen. So it's really interesting now because in my neighborhood, one of my favorite history professors at ULM is one of my neighbors. And so sometimes he likes to say he's retired now,

but he likes to set out and smoke cigars on his front porch. He's next to our neighborhood. And I like to go, sometimes when I just see him out there and I go over and sit down, we've now established rapport. He didn't remember me being a student. He taught thousands of kids. And so I ask him questions. I tell them about what

we're doing and things like that. So it's really been interesting to sort of relive college experience,

which is a good thing, just like this. Yeah. No, that's how I feel. The first time around,
