Everybody welcome to another episode of the Chad Prather show glad you were back. This is the Thursday edition. I hope everybody's had a great week. I'm sitting here with my good friend Sarah Gonzalez, the host of the news and why it matters on blaze TV.

We're going to get to you in a minute.

We're going to get. Oh boy. Thank you for making the long trek. Oh, you've had me on all of you. So many of your shows. Yes, so I was happy that you were willing to come over here and hang out with me over here in studio 22 in the redneck revier studio. You like our little. I'm just surrounded by whiskey.

That's why I came. I know told that there was this. There was. That's the deal. So so if you give us the wide shot back in here, Mark, you see that we have our apple juice. That's what we refer to it as the apple juice on the rocks.

And of course, we have Herbert the silent deer back here. He has a microphone just in case something divine happens in his time for him to talk. We got Sean Foster, Sean Boogie Foster, Boogie Sean Foster, who is in here. We got Brandon who's sitting in here. We got director Mark, who we still have not nicknamed, but it's coming. And of course, party foul Steve. Those guys are sitting over there behind the control board. We're going to have a good time. Steve looks like a puppet in that shot. Look at that thing. Like a mark. If Mark would put his hand over there behind him.

He was. So funny. The GoPro angle on that control board is so funny to me. How did you get involved in even caring about the news?

Well, I mean, it's mostly politics. I've just been involved or curious about politics for pretty much my entire adult life and probably started about 16ish.

And but you know, I was the person who was passing out flyers just of my own accord went and printed flyers on my college campus during the John Kerry election during all of that. I was I was passing out flyers on campus.

You pass out the Vietnam, you know, in this guy's. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So when we, you know, of course, did the I did a shirt that said John Kerry, but I made it to where it all it said joke with the J in the K.

Yeah, just so that it was put on my shirt a certain way. But yeah, I just I've always just been weirdly fascinated with politics, which I guess I just I like insufferable things.

Would you consider yourself because this is the if you notice how the vocabulary has changed over the last few years, for instance, would you consider yourself historically an activist?

Um, I mean, I, yeah, I'm just strong. It is. It is these days, but historically speaking, yeah, yes, but I feel like now it has a negative connotation. So I hesitate to use the word activists.

It does have a negative and it shouldn't. You know, if you have conviction, why don't you express your conviction? But these days like two weeks ago, I got called politically radical.

Yeah, I know. I'm just a concern. I lean conservative. I tend to label myself libertarian. I've never registered with a political party. Um, I, I have always been quick to call out everybody that runs. I don't care if it's Donald Trump all the way down to John Kerry. I call them all out.

But I, I've been called a political two weeks ago. It's called a political radical. Do you know, do you know in reference to what? No, I actually, I actually, I generally speak here. I said, you know, what is it that made what would you consider that I've said that's called me a political radical?

Um, because or, you know, just in what I've learned is if you have conviction, you're radical. Yeah. Yeah.

Like if there are things that you're unbending on, like I am unbending on the concept of pro life, I believe in unborn babies.

Probably 31, 8 to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. I believe in that. I believe in in, you know, speaking up for those. Okay. So that's one of those things. I believe in limited government. I unfortunately, but hey, let's face it.

We do live in a world where even the most conservative people in Georgia or Alabama or Mississippi, if all of a sudden you limited the government, their life would be in shame.

That's true. They may be conservatives, but guess what? You're not. Government subsidized apartments anymore. So that's, that's going to get me in trouble, but I don't care. But I, but I, but I think that it's sad that the thought that you would speak up for unborn babies would somehow make you radical. I know.

That's not, that's to me, that's just a morally sound concept that, you know, you would think that, hey, you know, when we're talking about the, the New York bill and a couple other states that have passed it.

Like, hey, a nine month old in the womb, child who's fully developed and about to come out, should not be killed. That's not radical to me. That's just moral.
