Welcome to the Daily Signal weekend edition. I'm your host, Rob Blewey. Today we're taking a deeper

dive and going beyond the headlines to discuss the issues and events that deserve more attention.

At the Daily Signal, the news never stops. Each day, we strive to bring you analysis and

perspectives you won't find elsewhere. That's why we strive to bring you analysis and perspectives you won't find

elsewhere. That's why we started this weekend show and why we're grateful that you're joining

us today. Our conversation is coming up next. We are joined by the great Sabin Howard on the

Daily Signal today, a master sculptor, and the creator of the World War I Memorial in Washington,

D.C., and Pershing Park just off the National Mall. Sabin, it is an honor to speak with you. Thanks

for joining us. My pleasure to be here. Thank you, Rob. Well, there's so much I'd like to cover,

and having heard you on some of my favorite podcasts, Victor Davis Hanson show and Mike Roe,

and I know Steve Bannon and you've been on his program, I've heard you share your story

and for our daily signal audience that might not be familiar with your journey into the world

of art, I'd like to start there because it really resonated with me as somebody

who really followed your passion and you decided that you weren't going to get stuck making

cabinets. You were going to do something that you found motivating. So tell us about the journey

and how it led you down this path. Well, I'd gone to school, dropped out first year college as a lit major, and then I end up in South Philadelphia on a Monday morning, 1982, and I decided by Thursday it was like, this is just not working out. I'd been sanding all these cabinets through the grades and putting wood in a 50-gallon oil drum to keep the

room warm. And I just felt, wow, I have a brain. I'm not using it here. And I went over to my

boss and I said, listen, this is not working out. And he said, well, if you don't stay, you can't be a

cabinet maker. I said, well, I just, it's not working out. And he goes, well, I'm not going to pay you then.

So I gave him the finger, and I walked out the door, being a rambunctious 19-year-old.

And it was 4 o'clock, and I made a call to my dad.

I said, hey, dad, I want to go to art school.
