[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You went offense and defense. Oh yeaah. Okay, so hey, you had to be, you know, long lasting longevity. Okay. You had to go all the way out on offense. Then when you turn around, you go all out on defense. So you played receive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. It's a new position. I had one... VILLASIN! One jar!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, no. I had one job. Go to the football.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All American. Steve the Bear Jones. Yep. Steve the Bear Jones. He's a fullback. Fact check. About 5'4", 280. Okay. And just no neck. Okay. Well, I gathered that from 5'4", 280. You're going to be missing some pieces. He had a head on shoulders and then, hey, look, I started to tell, I started to tackle the quarterback. You know, cause hey, he said, hook, quarterback, hook, look, uh, the hole opened up. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the, uh, a guard in the center, cross-blocked, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The hole will open up big enough for you to drive anything with or sideways to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, he just said, uh, son, the only problem you got, you ain't got enough, uh, beans in your pants. Cause look, I have stayed the Barry Jones perfectly. Form was right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 35 yards behind me. I finally tripped him up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, no, no, no, look, Jerry Aldrich, the coach of, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has got some films of me playing football. I'm serious.

[Assistant] Hey, you need to get it. I'm calling in a favor, Coach. No, no, yeaah, cause you talking about a good comedy hour.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, this thing, this thing literally, it looked like a 12 gauge full choke. I remember it. Yea, with about, oh, probably two, cause it blew up so bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, Matt Dillon was the marshal of Dodge City. That's fine. Dodge City was a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what they used to say. One riot, one ranger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it only takes one, you can have a riot and they'll only send one ranger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause when he comes into town, he's after Texas Red.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember when, I remember when uh, you know, Jayce and Willie and all them was into that. Yeaah. Yeaah. And I told what I told Jayce that he was getting the ring. I said, Jayce, here's one little thing. Let me tell you a little secret. If I climb up on the top rope,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Them are the greatest stunt men, oh, and stunt ladies. Okay, those that are in the ring and doing all this stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's funny. If you don't, cause if they wasn't, there would be a lot of people dying in the wrestling industry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Box? Yeah, in their prime, when they were at the top of their game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I have no idea. Ben, okay, who would you put your money on in that fight? I... You know, Hamid Ali.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would be one that, uh, I don't even know, you know, I'd have to ask the odd makers. Who are you going on this one here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the thing about it is, if Tyson got a lick on, on Ali...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not sure that ain't just this, okay. I think it's just one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that's why I'm saying, I used to look, when Ali used to do his little, uh, uh, dance, He had his arms, they was hanging near his ankles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a buddy in high school, okay, he went to the Golden Glove finals, he got beat out in the finals. Did you ever box in high school? No. I wish I would have, because I'm telling you, people don't realize watching a sport like boxing


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You talk about gotta be in shape. Oh, 100%. To go for three minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's ridiculous. They gotta be able to jab like for 15 minutes to actually go in and get in the ring for 3 minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just about to say, no. Talent, no, cause who's the thing? Talent for talent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're talking like in their prime, talent for talent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would probably go, I would probably have to go with Tiger. Tiger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, no, no, cause you don't realize, yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless you've met some of these people and been around them and watch what they can do with these stupid things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Y'all not understandin' somethin' here, okay? I'm on Michael Jordan's side. I know, but you don't understand Kobe Bryant ain't no slout son.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, and look, no, no, no, no, no, you gotta understand, okay, cause here we go again, this is a, a talent thing. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A basketball player? Yeah. Have you? No, no, no, no, uh, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Okay, this is one of them dudes, look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Raise your hand if you've ever seen Michael Jordan fly. Like on TV?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you, moving on. Well, no, no, cause it's the same thing with- Shut up and dribble. With uh, uh, Magic Johnson- We got political! Stop it! Same thing, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would be something to see is go back and collect, okay, collect all the greats and put them on this team and this team and then let them go at each other.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is there a possible to prove? They are. Cause here's the thing. On Michael Jordan and uh, Kobe. Okay. Got it. You're talking about two guys with the same dress.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They the same. They the same, okay, cause these guys, they're unreal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah. Okay. They were that. They're past being human.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Michael Jordan, you gotta think about it. He could leave the ground at the circle for crime out loud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the circle. At the, at the circle behind the free throw, where you stand on the line on the free throw, the circle behind it, his foot could be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At behind the circle, he leaves the ground and stunks it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're back. We're back. Uh, who's the greatest quarterback? Drew Brees. Ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drew B's to be as little as he is. Drew B's is smarter than everybody else. No, no, no, no, no. As little as he is, okay, to have done what he's done. Oh yeah. Is a super achievement. Okay. Really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you know where all this come from, or where all this leads to, or where this is actually gonna pinpoint to?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, the coach, he had 10 other players to put with Tom Brady. Oh yeaah, because you know why?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I just keep telling, hey, this is gonna pinpoint down to the man running it, boys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because normally it's what, uh, Dick, North Carolina, Kentucky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, that's the coach. If you got a good quarterback that's got a good arm, and you don't have nobody to throw the ball to him. Thank you. You know, hey, you just wasted your bunny. That's why Taysom Hill is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So 100 Tiny Martins. That's very simple. I'll break it down for you. It's one, one against a hundred, okay? You don't want to fight the hundred. Fight the one big one. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, I popped him a few times like a purposeful waltz, like a big waltz nest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, oh well I am, trust me. At my age, hey, I ain't got but one in me. So I gotta make that one the hospital trip for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if they named it Silas? Silas would not be a bad name, cause that was Paul's traveling companion, so it would be a biblical name. Oh, there we go. But if you name the kid that, trust me, if you name him that, he's gonna be on the road from now on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because that's the way I been. My mother named me. She said, it don't seem like I had you long. I said, well, it's your own fault. You named me after Paul Shammet communion and I've been on the road ever since.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say come up with your own name, mister and missus, sergeant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right, don't name him Sue either. Please don't name him. How do you do? That's right, how do you do? My name is Johnny Cash!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't know where that came from. That's God.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see that they're ugly, number one. They were cute, just not with these pants. Uhm, but, okay. Look at your toes. Well, I know, it's fresh manicure just for you. Those are cute. Whenever I have these conversations, like, I- I'm weird, I curl up on the couch and I put fuzzy socks on. So, I was gonna offer you some, but your boots are really sexy. Oh my god. So, uhm, can you- do you wanna take a pair home? Do you wanna know the truth?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna leave the boots on, I think, because the pants are up to here. I haven't shaved my legs. I haven't shaved in weeks. Like, that's what happens when you're single. But at the end of the day, since when do you care what people think about what you're wearing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, I know. Okay, good. I love you. Thank you for buying it. I get a foursome. Thank you. Hello. She went there early, guys. I didn't do that. Am I allowed to curse you? Oh, look. Oh, you do you. Okay. You do you. Cause I don't know how to speak without cursing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You do, you do like mine. It's coffee, bacon, and eggs. It's eggs. And it matches, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you tell me how you're doing? I feel like you've been on the run, you've been doing so much. You've had a lot the last several years. I feel like I've been through the wringer actually.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jim Valvano, the late, great, uh, basketball coach from North Carolina State, his name, V, started the V Foundation for Cancer Research and he said something so beautiful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before he died, and it was every day, you need to think, you need to laugh, you need to cry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot more important than, okay, just our career, uhm, or okay, clothing. Like, there's some real things that you've been through, and that's why when I said, how are you, I meant it, and your answer, uhm, proud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, no I want you to, and you said earlier we have a lot in common because of how it did affect your life. Wait, are you unable with real friends to have conversations even because of their opinions of you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me back up just for people who aren't fully aware because when you say


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The last few years, uhm, COVID vaccine mandates ruined your life. Oh yea, no one even knows what the hell I'm talking about. Oh, a lot of people do. But I want to hear it, I have you live and in person. Okay. How did that time period ruin your life?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You lost interest. Really, that was a turning point because you felt like they don't care about you or what you're going through. And okay, it's business, right? We all understand that, but that's another level. So why was it that that triggered you to kind of take a step back?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did and... Because I did too. I think so many people considered, okay, I know people, I can get a fake card and I can, same with me. I'm the single mom, like I can support my kids. Like it's a, it's something that I think we had to think about based on what ended up happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, 20, this isn't 3 years ago, this is, this is more recently when


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We all know the science behind it and- Oh yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is, I mean, I need hours to talk about that and I'm very, I'm so excited. I think I'm, I'm taking a back at uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's been four years really since most of us, well since the pandemic began in three years, I think with the vaccine mandate. Uhm, like I see it in your face, I hear it in your voice. Uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This hasn't gone away, like that pain of what you went through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To have to make those kind of decisions and to be abandoned. Not just by, okay, by your agent, by friends, and by family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and I, I need a, I need something besides tea in here. I'll have a drink of vodka, come on. A drink, drink, right? Well, I will tell you that I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I empathize, uhm, and the reason I wanted to dig a little deeper is because I feel it and I had never felt more alone in my life either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It wasn't even anti-vax, it was anti-mandate. There's a, there's a big difference to me. You know, it's like, can we just do a little more science on this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had to, to keep my job. Oh, you did. And I am the sole wage earner for three college age kids. And I had no choice. And I waited to the very last possible day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I uhm, was sitting in the parking lot of the grocery store.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Praying and cry- like I feel like- God, that makes me so mad. Crying because I- I was like, God-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me a sign because I'll walk away and I will have faith that you will find something else for me and a way for me to make a living to pay for, for my kids, my ex-husband, like all of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uhm, I felt something that was like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got you. And when I went in there, and this is so not about me, I just wanted to tell you I understand, I went in there- We got the placebo. God got you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I, that's what I believe because I never felt a thing. When I went in there and I walked in and it's some grocery store nowhere Connecticut and I sit down in the little pharmacy and the nurse said, are you okay? Cause I was crying and I said, no. I said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am being forced to do this to keep my job and I'm, this is wrong. And the nurse looked at me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looked at me and she looked me in the eye and I'm like a baby crying and she goes, This is so wrong and I'm so sorry that I have to do this. And when she put it in my, like, I changed at that moment. I did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I literally, now people say, well you had a choice, you could have walked away. And yes, we all have choices. But I know that like, I had no other way to support my kids. So it was like, you do the, what, what mother, if anything, let, let it hurt me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I'll take it, and then, uh, meaning take whatever negative could come with it, and at least I've got a good insurance policy, and if I die, my kids will be okay, as long as they don't have to do it, right? So, all I'm saying is that, uhm, then you do it, and you comply, that damn word,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can still have an opinion because I complied and then when you give your opinion on it, even though you complied and you're not killing anyone, yeaah, you get crushed and you're alone. And so when you were alone, like I had my mom and dad and a couple of very, very close friends and that's it. Everybody at work, goodbye, shut down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who did you have? Who did you have when everybody else left?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of it I believe was suppressed though. There was a lot early on that they didn't want us to know and especially I think even recently when more facts are coming out about, uh, some of the vaccine injuries and the, the other things that we're seeing in the videos of people collapsing and listen, we can go on deep dives about that for the rest of our lives. And, and the question now is, okay, how do we move on? Which in many instances begins with forgiveness, right? Yeah. And I, I do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you'd, ohhhh. Oh, no, no, I- I'm gonna be one of your new friends. Okay, now, now we're besties, because, I mean, here's the thing, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I do have a very strong faith and I know forgiveness for me is, is crucial. Uhm, I'm, I'm almost there. And it isn't with family. I'm very supportive there. It's with people who you thought were your friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 16 years at ASPN, yeaah. That's insane. I think I have probably two friends left there after 16 years and one of the, the veterans and, um, but I also feel like, you know what, and I wonder if you feel this way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel there are a lot of blessings and I'm really grateful now that this filtered out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the real people in my life are still here. Who are your real people? Besides your kids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I say this though, your, your kids are incredible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fact that they, uhm, and I'll talk about your daughter in a second, but your son as an 11 year old, uhm, yes, you're saying, okay, wait, slow down here. You can't say this and then this is how you act. No, it's all or nothing if we're going to believe and accept and be tolerant of everybody, right? But as an 11 year old kid, to pay attention enough,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To want, to say to his mom, I don't want to go to this assembly, I don't want to go do this. That is incredible, and that means you've, you have these babies that you have raised, are raising, to have a mind of their own, you know, and to dig deep and form their own opinions, even if we disagree. That's special. Yeah, it was, I mean,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have heard that from a couple uhm, a couple of people in DMs or texts and uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I don't want it to make it sound like I'm this angry person because I'm not. I think it's just forgive but not forget.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? You never forget. You never forget what people say or do or sometimes you never forget, like, what they don't do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not asking you to stand and scream from the mountain tops, hey, Dre is right and you're wrong. That's not what we're ever asking, it's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, if I, if I think back on, on The Sopranos from what I read, I mean, that initial role was, okay, a hostess for, for one episode and it turns into an incredible run. Like, so, so you went in almost as this, this kid, this young adult who's, okay, quiet, I'm gonna stay in my lane.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And just your role alone turned into something different which I see now parallel to this life. It's crazy cause she was a rat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, when did that change take place, I guess internally? When, what, was it COVID time? Or was it during the acting and then you gained some strength and confidence, like, seeing the difference that you were making?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Quite freeing, isn't it? Yeah. It's awesome. It's just sad that it takes half a century because we're the same age to get to that point. But I'm so, I'm so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe shock's a strong word, but just fascinated with you saying that you didn't have that confidence when


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The world's falling in love with you. You're winning an Emmy. You're nominated for a Golden Globe. It's like, on the exterior...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fascinating that your childhood and your early years, uhm, yeaah. Some industry doesn't want you to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh heck no. Stay in the box that we provide. Don't say this unless we give it due in a script.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And especially as a woman, I mean, it is different. Has there been progress? Absolutely. And you look on the production side, and absolutely. And Hollywood and television networks, like my job, but still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you ever think back about that time coming out of addiction, which I think, unfortunately, most of us have, if not direct experience with it, loved ones who have had to fight to stay alive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But for you to have gone through that time when you were young and that fight that it took to beat it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one will address the damage their words did as leaders. And that's to me where, that's probably the one area of my life where I'm not forgiving people because of the damage that COVID did to others. Not me, not even me, whatever, I'm okay. To our children, to the elderly, to so many because those words


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are now aware, but they might not be saying it, especially in California here, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People aren't, I don't believe they're going to allow it to go to the depths that it did this last time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you. That's the word, Dre. I agree. This, what is happening and what is happening in the schools and all the indoctrination and the things that your 13 year old son is worried about. It is evil. There's almost no other explanation. I think so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not, just not in an airport, okay? It's so bad. Uhm, can I? I can't even remember what the heck I was saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna, I know your daughter had a lot to do with this, I'm so interested to learn about her too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said you'd do you when you walked in. Okay, see, and then I forgot my reading glasses cause I'm, oh, that age. Oh, we're mine. Do you want to have some? Okay, fine. I won't, I won't make you read this cause this is what I, I should have done bigger font. But just don't laugh. Do you have some too? Do you wear them too? Oh my god, I can't see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have found don't, don't take the time to go deeper and just to look at the why and just be a little more curious uhm, which is why I think we are, you know, where we are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today, uhm, I wanted to go back to your daughter because of, because of what I read at least with OnlyFans. Uhm, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's what it is. It's... So, the why behind it, and this is uhm, I'm sorry, I don't remember where I saw this quote, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You said, oh, I think it was on, uhm, Adam Kroll's podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is going to have to be a change of life. This meaning the mandates and the vaccine and all of what happened during COVID. I didn't know this was going to have to be a change of life. You know, all of a sudden that during a time I'm supposed to be relaxing a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That I would have to switch careers and figure new things out because my own industry thinks I'm, you know, a savage. And you continued here and this, this, this hits me. I know some people have said some nasty things about me having joined OnlyFans, but you know, the way we see it in this house is mommy's a warrior not accepting defeat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's that conversation like? And I'm a mother, my daughters are 21 and 17. I have a son in the middle. So, you know, as a mother, we have, we've had these conversations for years, right, on Instagram and, and I'm like, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can we pull up the shirt a little, you know, teenagers and can we do this? And then, uhm, and then?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My daughter- Mom's gonna- Mom's gonna- Hey, I'm gonna- First of all, you look amazing. She doesn't care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which I love because she knows, but she knows your why. She knows why.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you're like, you know what? I'm taking control of this and look at me. Like, I'm proud of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, you know what, though Ben, I don't know, and I love and respect Ben, but Ben was very wrong. I remember speaking to him about the vaccine. He was like, do it, take it, I've done all the research, got it, and I was like, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, he was wrong. Brilliant Ben Shapiro was wrong about that. And along with millions of others, you know. So I hate that he said something about you with this. That's what you were saying with OnlyFans?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a lot younger, and we have our little company together, and it's super fun. Okay, and this is really exciting. A clothing line. Okay, give us the name and the why behind it.

[Assistant] Remember back, I remember, uhm, back 20 plus years ago in the Iraq war and all that and all that stuff running that fine. But, and my dad was a, he's a retired army colonel by the point I was raised in a military household, very structured, very strict.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see those bumper stickers. And as a kid that would resonate with me. And wow, are we feeling that now. So, Ultra Free, the name of it, to me is perfect, especially for, to represent what you've been through these last four years that changed you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People need to be, if they love their country as imperfect as we are, if we want to save it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we need more people like you who, through all of it, you're now unafraid. It doesn't mean we don't have- Feel crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So a couple years, it's not like a long time and each time I did it's scary. I mean, all those years at ESPN, silence, no, because I knew, I knew I was going against the narrative and at the end,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've always said this, like, I didn't know what the line was until it was crossed and it was like, this is the do or die moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? It seems like we all, especially looking back, have these moments where it's like, no more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not doing this. And so you've done that and you've been vocal about it, uhm, and now you've created this line. And by the way, I don't want to overlook the fa- just because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are strong women who are standing up and having a voice. It doesn't mean it doesn't still hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's ultra free. So it's not, we're not just free, we're ultra free. We're ultra free. But the website is not, it's just ultra free. Okay. I love the concept behind it. Uhm, and, you're so brave.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I, I'm honored to have met you today and for you to share your, like, look what you did to me. No, just because it takes such courage to do what you're doing. And I know the alone feeling and you're at another level. Uhm, but I, I hope that by continuing to share this, uhm, I believe that more people are gonna


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their behavior is the antithesis of DEI. And that's why I've called BS on that for a long time. By design though. Yes, but then, but everyone's afraid to say it. Not us. And I think that we have a response now that we're out there. Okay, we've been canceled, whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we don't continue to speak up for others, then shame on us. I agree. Like that's the way I look at it now. We're there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the heck? Hate us though. It's okay. I know. It's okay. That's the best part. And then I'm, I, I see, I could...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So freeing, that's your word, our word, it's so freeing to also let go of what others think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and that, and then you have to balance that with the kids and I've had to do that a little bit as well. I'm sure. You are, uhm, you are absolutely a warrior and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An inspiration to I think millions more than you even realize. And most importantly,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold on, I need to buy me some of that instead of dip, like y'all dip, all that snuff junk. I'll just dip me a bunch of coconut.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I thought whatever I said, you drinking that sweet tea? And I said, no. I don't ever need to drink sweet tea. Boy. Hey, I'd be bounced off the wall, boy. You'd be climbing trees. I'd do that anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well guess what, y'all said something and then mom and dad was mad scientists in the kitchen, so they come up with some butterscotch ice cream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That they made. Homemade. Your mom and dad? Oh yeaah. They cranked it, right? Well, I guess me and Phil cranked it. But anyways, they made it. Okay, and I'm like, alright, I'll make them get them a bowl. I looked at it, I didn't even like the looks of it. So I just took a little bite, no, spit that mess out. They all ate a bowl, it made them six to a dog. What was in it? Oh hey, I don't know, but it was a bad batch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well hey, I'm just telling you, good stuff, but hey, this was bad. I mean, real bad. It made the whole family sick. I didn't eat nothing. I spit it out. Wasn't no good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I didn't, I didn't swallow it, I just tasted it and said, I'm gonna have to jump.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, he's been trying to fatten me up ever since I went on their first date with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It ain't happening. My metabolism, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, old age takes everything down. Hey, I'm telling you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hair falling out, teeth falling out, belly getting bigger. All of it. It's a tough, it's a tough. Oh, you're just a mess, Cy. You're just a mess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why Phil, Phil's got a good deal, good system though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. And you didn't ever want to be with her. You never wanted to hear Silas Med Robertson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First name and she's pronouncing them with a little... Yeah, okay, you're in trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We used to, yeaah, we used to kill em. The best dub on that one on is I kill em with a .22 rifle. Off of Highlands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, that's why he looked like the Pillsbury noble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When he said he puts fruit in his, hey, text me to Tennessee, buddy, they put it fruit and shine. Oh. And hey, and they got it down pat, buddy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I literally, you'd take them like a cherries and chew it and swallow it and it would literally just keep your whole throat and belly up going down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ice cream and shine. There you go. Especially when they know what they're doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you sniff it, you better not smell kerosene. Don't drink that. You should never drink anything that smells like kerosene. That's just a life rule. No, no. A lot of people that do shine puts kerosene in it. I'm telling you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I traced that. What do you mean you don't know? He just said you came from there. Well yea, that's where it just, the line. Well that makes, we might be Kenfolk JD. That would make sense. No no, it would, cause we came from Tennessee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They went, they had the trail that they come down. Okay. And I mean, you got to think about, Hey, they lowered wagons, mules, horses and all this stuff. When they come to a big gully, it wouldn't go around it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They go down, they, and they do this with blocking tackle and horses and mule and then two or three of them would take whatever it was, you know, and meet them way down there somewhere. But when you look in, you know, I'm looking at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jace had something pulled out of his ear by a doctor. That was Willie. No, no, no, Jace. This was Jace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He showed me a stupid picture of it. It looked like a prehistoric monster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's uh, uh, tick, uh, uh, gah, earwax, chinwax, something like, but hey, you talking about rough looking-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, hey, when he told me about that, I called him a liar. I said, Jake, you didn't have that in your ear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he had that thing living inside his ear. And it ain't no tellin' how long it been there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It ain't no telling how long he'd been in Jason's ear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time. Send him to the stomach. That's the leading.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, hey, here's what he lived off when he was in Jason's ear. Okay. Earwax.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the scary thing about snakes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they don't stay little, okay. You know, now they've got patrols that patrols, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now, hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, he's just rolling it up and crushing it. Oh, oh, he beat him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guard duty, okay, and I look over and I think it's, it looks like a, uh, where a truck has blown a tire. You know, one of these 18 wheelers? That's what it looked like. It was about that wide, about 18 inches wide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I said, yesterday they was talking about they killed a cobra out here. I said, nah, that can't be, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I go over there and kick it over. Oh yeaah, that's a Cobra. Piece of him. Because they shot him in half and all kind of things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, and look, they've guard duty, okay, and they had a new kid. He just arrived in country and he's on guard duty and he keeps telling them, man, I'm seeing some eyes. It comes close and then it goes away. You know, and they said, oh, shut up, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said, I'm telling you, you better pop the flare, there's something out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so he bothers for like 30 minutes, this thing is, and all it is, at King Cobra, they got a conex that they cut slit in and then put sandbag on top of it. He's in front of it and he's coming like this. He comes in the, in that little slit, then he goes back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They got him. These things are big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why is the deal about that like you're talking about? It's animal trails.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, they are. No, they got eight eyes and eight legs. You got a two-lane dirt road. Trees on this side, trees on the other side. And what they do is, they got a, the spider web.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't we all? No, no, no, no. I'm talking about when the water river comes up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why I look in South Louisiana, you go down there and hey, there'll be an ain't heel up there 10 feet tall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's the survival of the fittest. The big boys always make it to the top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The shot that was heard around the world was when that first command was given.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How would you like to live, okay? Like if Darbon had, had, uh, not alligators but the crocodiles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I ain't doing it. Oh yea, cause hey look, Shark Week had one episode on and look, the big whale had died.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the sharks had ached this thing down to about, oh that guy was on a piece of blubber left, about three times as big as this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A camera man. He's got a camera and this big great white comes up and he's literally got the camera in this thing's mouth and he's biting off about all a hundo piece of blubber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The thing about, the thing about, I wouldn't write a piece of blubber with great whites in the area feeding on this thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I've been behind, I've been behind Phil and he, he puts his foot down and about where that Bible's at. You see just a white spot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They haven't knew it. I know, but hey, you know, I've seen him do that so many times and you know, we're all lucky that we ain't been bit out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The reason I said, hey, quit hunting if, if you don't do that. If you don't get excited, yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here we go. Funnest thing. Funnest thing you've done today, Si. Funnest thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, let me tell you, I put a pork loin on the grill. I injected it the other night. Just one. Just one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. With some kind of stuff Paula got, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, mixed it up. Man, it was good. It was juicy. It was... I think I'm gonna have me some more when I get home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm gonna do? That's our birds, boys. You know what I'm gonna do for Christmas? Deep fry a prime rib. I'm interested in that. You runnin'.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has been a stellar opening to the duck season. I hope it continues.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boy, talking about Black Friday though, I got up last year to go hunting at 3.30. 3.30. And, and there's a commotion in the kitchen. Commotion. And I go in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your kitchen? Paula's in there and all her friends is in there. They got some kind of cinnamon roll built up and coffee made and sitting there with the table with the sale papers. She don't do that for you every morning? Not every morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I couldn't believe it. Cause I enjoyed it. You went?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want a butcher knife. No, no! See, that's what you got. There we go. Look. You want a what? I want a 10 inch butcher knife. A big one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like a meat cleaver? Yeah, almost. Not quite. I got you one. Long, but I won't. I'll send you a link. That's what JD got you. Scoop your stuff up, throw it in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can do a lot of stuff with a, you can filet crappie with it. You can do everything with a big butcher knife. Everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna be talking about every episode after it airs on Sundays. I'm talking recaps, I'm talking death counts, good old fashioned analysis and discourse. This is gonna be fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you are done listening to today's episode, I highly recommend that you check out our first three episodes. They include interviews with some of the cast of House of the Dragon. We also hear a conversation with George R. R. Merton himself. It's great. You should totally listen to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So now that that is out of the way, today we are discussing episode one of House of the Dragon. It is called The Heirs of the Dragon. Jason, I'm gonna put you on the spot and have you give us like a quick and dirty recap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jason, that was expertly done. Thank you very much for that. I want to dive a little deeper into a great many of the things that you just sort of hinted at. But first, I think we should actually talk about how this episode works as a series premiere because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, pilots are hard is a mantra that I have said many times on Nerdette. I think they can be really tricky in terms of, you know, wanting to throw people in the middle of the action, but making sure there is enough exposition so that people understand what's happening. Sometimes you can get really clunky dialogue so that you kind of understand what people's relationships are or whatever. So yeah, what did you think? How did it work for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my gosh, I mean, I think Rainier obviously is a super compelling kind of like quote unquote protagonist, I think. She is the first character we see on her dragon in the opening scene.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think getting a sense of all of the ways that she's interacting with these different people is really interesting. But speaking of that scene that you mentioned, that line when she's like, I just want to ride dragons and eat cake, I thought was super fun, partly because you can tell that she's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't Hella interested in being on the throne, at least at this point in the story, which is a really interesting place to start, narratively, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But she's just playing it cool about it, I think is also kind of an interesting completion of that circle, cause it's like, no, she is paying attention, she does know what's required of her, but she's not gonna give it to you the first time you ask, kinda, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I thought so too. I also really liked one of the earlier scenes where Rainiera finds out Damon's in town.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And her dad, the king, doesn't know yet. And I think, right, and it sets up a really interesting dynamic because obviously these two are actually pretty close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fact that they're buddies, I think is really interesting. And the fact that the first scene you see with Matt Smith, he's literally sitting on the Iron Throne.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you get that Rainier is allowed in the room, but only as a cup bearer, which I also thought was-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, cause it's like, sure, you can be here and we expect you to be on time. However, you're here to make sure that we're not thirsty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We talked about Rainier and Allison, Rainier and Damon. Should we just go through all of Rainier's vibes? We could start there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, yeaah, there wasn't a lot with her obviously, but you know, I mean that first scene we see with her mother, she's super pregnant, she refers to her and her daughter's wombs as royal, and then says, you know, essentially like giving birth is gonna be our battlefield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well and I think speaking of scenes that do a really nice job of explaining where we're at without being too awkward about it is when Emma's talking to Viserys about how hard it has been for her to conceive and to produce an heir.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, her entire storyline that whole episode, I mean, you could, she stole the show. It was phenomenal. It was also just very well depicted, the whole thing. It was so intense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I mean especially, I want to tip my hat to the editors of this episode too, because especially when we see kind of the inter-twining of the scenes of the tournament and the childbirth,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then, and like the stuff on the horses was filmed super well. Those were interesting little battle scenes, but like, oh my god, that room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So obviously we're gonna talk more about Daemon, but first, speaking of sort of like interior Targaryen moments, we must make mention, I think, of that scene where Viserys points out that he's got that wound from sitting on the throne.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause the symbolism of that obviously is pretty significant, but it's also, you know, I mean, just seeing the weakness and who he's willing to acknowledge that in front of, I thought was another really interesting scene.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The scene with Otto that I found the most telling was, it's after the death of Emma and the baby, and it's when Allison walks into the rooms with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At first he seems really comforting, you know, he gets up, he gives her a hug, he asks her how she's doing, he asks her how Raniera is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and you think, oh this is nice, you know, like he realizes that her mother has died not that long ago, like this must be really hard for her, he's trying to be present.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so yeah, I don't know. I mean, I also, like, did you pick up on vibes between Alicent and Damon? Cause he did not seem happy about that, but it definitely, you know, I mean, Damon asked for her... Her favor. Yeah, it's attorney. Yes, her favor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That makes a lot of sense. So speaking of Allison and Otto and going to talk to the King, can I tell you about my like completely out of the blue ridiculous prediction that I have? Please, please. Yes. Okay, so you know the King, he's like, you know, he's mourning, he's like in his PJs, he's like working on something at this table, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that miniature ends up being what's in the Game of Thrones credits scene in the other show in the future times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a daemon question for you. Sure. Do you think it's unfair for him to be part of the tourney?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are there other relationships you want to talk to or talk about?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I think what you're talking about was a really important scene also because he essentially apologizes to her for underestimating her. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which I think is really interesting because it speaks to his inability to even, you know, imagine a world where she could be queen, but then also to realize that like she is showing up. She might be late, she might have dragon stank on her, but like she's showing up and she knows her stuff actually. So I thought that apology,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was really interesting. And yeah, I mean, it's also entirely possible that he could have been a good father in king until now, but this horrific thing just happened, like he had to witness this, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Well, and I think it also speaks to what I thought this episode did really well as a spin-off, which is it gave Thrones fans just enough familiar things to get really excited, you know? And I think


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The sets, I think, you know, the tourney, the fact that there is a king's hand, the gold cloaks, there, you know, mention of Baratheons, mention of Starks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so before we do our official death count, is there anything else you think as a book reader that might add some extra contextual understanding for those of us, obviously without spoiling anything?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And where are we in our death count for this episode? So, two obvious deaths. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like, I mean, death is a spectrum, right? As we know from Monty Python and Princess Bride.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright Jason, now is the time where we're going to listen to an interview from someone who is intricately involved with the show. This is another one of the interviews you got to do when you were at Comic Con. I swear to God, I'm gonna get myself in one of these interviews one of these days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, for one I kind of can't imagine how challenging it must be for Ryan as someone who is like very well aware of where the season is gonna go and how good he was at talking about some of the big themes that are gonna come up without spoiling anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So wait, you're saying that secret is not canon. I mean, it's in George's head, but that's something that no one knew until this episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also found the part where he was talking about, which, you know, we were just talking about the idea of child beds as battlefields and how difficult it is to be a woman in this world and that that's obviously something that's going to be coming up throughout that they really wanted to make sure to highlight in their storytelling, I think is going to be really interesting to see how that plays out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that is all for this episode. Don't forget to join us again next Sunday night when we discuss House of the Dragon episode two. We're also going to chat with our younger Allison Hightower, played by Emily Carey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ladies and gentlemen, we are excited to announce we have our first ever guest on the Duck Call podcast, the Duck Call Room podcast this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, we were gonna keep it a little bit of a mystery. Hopefully y'all don't know that voice. So, the first guest ever is a platinum recording artist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was that. That was a big movie. What other accolades do we have for him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he is our boss, Willie Robertson is stepping in for Uncle Si this week, so. What's up guys, how we doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, generally how this podcast goes is we get south on some tangent that reminds him of a memory in his life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we laugh and he tells a story and we laugh some more and it works so far. So we're keeping with that system. So you got big shoes to fill this week. Godwin just said it works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And anything you could grab was your weapon. Oh, anything. Yeaah. You know what that says? I'm a younger brother. Cause I was the same way. They beat me. They beat me down. Six years between me and my brother. Yeaah, but you're giant. Were you giant?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, I just had a big head. I mean, my head was the same size, but I mean, my body, I was still a six year old, so. Yeah, they put the beat down on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What about Psy? What was it like having Psy as your uncle growing up? Was Psy around in your formative years? Oh yea, he was just a weirdo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look Willie, I would think this one is actually going to be somewhat interesting to you because I got a crash course in the home title theft and as a man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like you who has several residences that he owns?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you know that people can go online, find the title to your home or your property and then file loans against your property? Quit claim deeds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All they have to do is fill out a quick claim deed, forge your signature, then they can start borrowing money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Against your property. And look, you would never know about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Until the collector starts showing up. So our friends over at Home Title Lock, they help protect you. And in the unlikely event that you become a victim of title theft, uh, Home Title Lock will spend up to a quarter million dollars in legal fees defending you.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was like we didn't want to. Oh, that's funny. Everything. And now you can't hardly get Kay stirred up for anything. No, she was, she ran out of that vigor. It was an angry season. Angry season. Well, in her defense, raising you three, I'd have probably been a little angry too. So, y'all were, y'all were.

[Assistant] Y'all were mean to each other. I mean, let's just call it what it is. Y'all were scrappers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my goodness. Well, hey look, Sy is not here, so I think it's our time to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We should tell a story on side that he can't interrupt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And tell it his way. Johnny D, your first time meeting Uncle Si. What, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, I was interested in playing poker over there because finally my boss wasn't taking my paycheck back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, that's, that's, that was Willie's move back in the day was, hey, let's play poker on Friday. He'd pay us on Friday morning, Friday night, that payroll would just come right back into his pocket. He told me that. Technically it wouldn't come back to me until Saturday morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Early. He said, that's why, that's why I have it at my house. I've seen the boy, I've seen him go to bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bed, not, not like, ah, I'm out. No, he went to bed, wake up three hours later, find a 20 behind the picture frame, say, let's roll, and then have every chip at the table. You're like, what, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You went to bed. You, you went to bed. Like you, you quit. And then I'm back. Yeah. I mean, I remember being over there like Bella waking up and gotta give her a bottle. Like, yeah. I mean, we were playing in those days. I mean, it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the beauty though, but when we would start, you'd get there, and Sy would have...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] $500 in 20 stacks already counted out for everybody. He's like, all right, who's in? And you didn't have to count your chips. I had them all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get at the table in there. Sit over there and do what you do. He'd count all the cards, there'd be two decks ready to go, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, he, he, that is his one love in life, I think is poker. It's, it's amazing how much he loves it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was serious poker. I think that was a night the couch was born. Take him to the couch, boys. I don't ever want to play with y'all. Oh, it's so much fun. It's not fun now because they're in a different tax bracket. So it's, it's a way different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The average person has 97 points. 97 points they can add to their credit score. Did y'all have any idea about that? No clue?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I know it, it's good. You too can have people from that because Scoremaster has the credit scientist that can show you the tools to add up to 97 points on yours. But what they'll almost guarantee you is that you can add 61 points in the first 20 days if you just sign up for Scoremaster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fact that they've got guys in lab coats crunching numbers and all that working for you is a pretty cool deal. Look, if you boost your score 61 points on a car loan, that is a savings of 10 grand over the life of a car loan. And on a home loan, that's 100 grand back in your pocket.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, okay. I was just curious because if you fasted for 21 days and your first meal was going to slam Johnny's, that's uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm telling you, it's a good thing. I just have a personal belief. If your stance is I'm not eating meat, then you forfeited the right to a burger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Against it. When you go vegetarian, you forfeit your right to all meat dishes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fact checking. Yes he is. Fact checking. Look it up. I need to know. Look it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those Brussels sprouts were good last night. Exactly. I fast every night from the hours of like 8 to 6. Like, when I sleep. I wake up my 80's. Everybody does that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, there are people that go to the fridge about midnight and dough pop and something go back. You know what that'll do too? It'll get you up about 315. You know what I've been into?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I see you doing something athletic, I'm calling the orthopedist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't played football since we did that little game on Duck Dynasty where he popped his hamstring. Which was real, by the way folks. That was a real hamstring pop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's the Omega XL. It's backed by 35 years of research. And development working for you. It's got a weird size not here to give that part of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's exactly what it is. Look, that comes from the pristine waters of New Zealand. That comes from the grain mussel. They extract the oil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's like a fish oil, but what it does is it attacks the inflammation. It doesn't just mask the pain like creams and other coverings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It says on there, you can take two, four, six, up to eight a day to help with your inflammation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well look, if you order Omega XL now, you can get a second bottle for free. All you have to do is visit omegaxl.com slash duck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's omegaxcel.com slash duck or call 1-800-844-4888. That's 800-844-4888. Just tell them Johnny D sent ya.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What were you thinking when you took over Duck Commander? What was the thought process?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I told John David that before we went on. I said, I know which one Willie's gonna tell on Gavin. I said, that, that'll be, that'll be that one right there. And sure enough, you don't miss a point. Now what's my story on you? Ah, the, the, when I sent you an email, he's the person I never


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least you got a paycheck. No, I mean, but I volunteered to work here for free. So I didn't expect nothing. Then like, yeah, four, four to five months later, he said, why don't I start paying you? That's all right. Okay. Not a problem. I mean, I didn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, being the buyer at a local sporting store was good for me because I knew all I had to do was wait for y'all's vacation before I even knew anything about y'all's vacation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I could get Duck Commander product for the year because she would say, I'll give you a really good discount if you pay me cash.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That leads us into the, uh, the last section of the show. Look, we have not had time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you've got the last section, so we're going to give you plenty of time to opine here at the end. But look, if you got questions or comments on our boss, cause he won't be back here and it's obvious he doesn't listen to the podcast so we can talk freely when he's not here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, just send them to hello at duckcallroom.com. That's hello at duckcallroom.com. Don't forget like and subscribe on YouTube and, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Glad to have you, boss. Come back anytime. You're always welcome here in the Duck Call Room. So. I may stop by.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will not believe that he said this on his deathbed alone with only the boy's mother as a witness. This is seizure!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Welcome to the official Game of Thrones podcast, House of the Dragon. I'm Jason Concepcion, host of the podcast, X-Ray Vision from Crooked Media.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Number four, big episode number four. I can't believe we're almost halfway through the season already.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, there was definitely some fulfilling going on out there, uh, indeed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And speaking of that, we are going to have Fabian Frankel, who plays Sir Chris and Cole, our semi-Dornish hunk, uh, will actually be joining us later in today's episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She looks so bored. Some fun facts about this. So, Rhaenyra is sitting next to Boromund Baratheon, who's the lord of Storm's End. So this is our first look at the castle, Storm's End, which I think is one of the swellest castles in the whole land, Greta.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fun fact about the little argument that takes place here. So, in the books, it is almost like an anecdote when they talk about Renira coming of age in about 113, 112-ish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Egon the Conqueror as he was invading Westeros.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is just another brick in this long road of rivalry between these two storied houses. Like part of the reason that when Lord Baratheon is like, oh, they have a great army. Yeah, they have a great army because they're always fighting with their neighbors to brackets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think clearly that's part of it. Like Damon can't just show up, he needs to make his presence felt. And I wonder, thinking about our theme of indulgence and escape,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You were such a warrior. I was a warrior. Mom loved you so much. That was really nice. And it was really, you know, we talked so much about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He missed his brother when he raises Damon up after Damon gives up his crown. Drops the crab feeder's hammer as an offering to add to the throne. Here's a person who he can share parts of his life with and he can't share with anybody else. It makes sense. It's the closest thing to a peer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, it's one of those gilded cage situations where Allison would seem to have everything, right? And yet as soon as Ranira is like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had the opportunity to go on this whirlwind tour where men from across the realm are throwing themselves at her. And she's romanticizing it in a way that a young girl would, saying,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It must have been romantic on some level, like wasn't sounds great. And then Ranira's like, oh yeah, how great it must be to be imprisoned in a castle just to squeeze out errors, which was this dark right at Allison's heart. And you could see her just wince when Ranira said that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It makes you heartbroken for what surely is to come. And it also makes you think, I found myself thinking about this, I wonder what you think, that if they could just like, shove away all of these other forces that they're beholden to, they would just be great friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I found it very meaningful that we were intercutting Raniera's night of escape and indulgence with Alicent's literally being trapped under this old


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I mean? Like as soon as I became king, if that ever happened in Westeros, the very day one would be like, let's find them all. Hey, let's get all these, let's nail down where all these secret passages are because this is untenable. We can't just have people crawling around in the walls all fucking day and night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably spent a good portion of his childhood being raised in that castle just searching these things out looking for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, this is a person in Daemon that Raniera can complain about the things that she has to deal with. This ungainly marriage pact that's being thrust upon her at the same time. You know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, I don't know that that is the best sounding, but yes, Damon is the person who can be like, yeah, marriage. What a ball and chain, am I right? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By valerian influence in one way or another, but the bravos was founded by escaped enslaved


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People who are enslaved by Valerians, so they have a different kind of culture, a more like mercantile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Banking and finance kind of culture, trade culture, and they are of course very strong at sea, and Braavos is also home in addition to like multitudes of religions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the house of the undying and the very, very scary faceless men sect of assassins that can go anywhere, kill anyone and make it look like any kind of accident. So, this...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And is on the outs with the king for him to be kind of seeming like he would strike a deal with Braavos is scary on a multitude of levels for the small council.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's interesting that no one can seemingly, first of all that one, Viserys' sores and the various cuts that are becoming infected because of him sitting on the throne are just getting worse. It's not gotten better over the years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the two, it seems like the household staff can't do anything about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that this was a moment almost of escape from the constant pain of ruling for Viserys, where it's kind of like a, if you could somehow forget the vast age and power difference, like a kind of sweet moment between husband and wife.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's not, she, there's no like, hey, it's late, I'm going to sleep now. I don't want to do that. Yeah, that's not at all an option for her. And meanwhile, Renira and Damon are out, and this is kind of a moment probably of the most pure freedom Renira has felt maybe in her life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking pretty good. Thinking about taking her to a play that directly criticizes her and then a sex club.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And two, because Viseris chose Raniera and that is going to be on some level an unpopular choice or a choice that people are going to quibble with, it will be important to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Forge an alliance and unfortunately the way we do that in this world is through weddings that nobody wants to have. So I see an angle there. But I think in both cases,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'd need to prepare for, you know, what that wedding match is gonna be, and I don't think the Realm is necessarily prepared for a Daemon and Raniera match. I think a lot of people would be really threatened by it, and I think that's dangerous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you think Damon just peaced out mid-couple?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it feels so much more probable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean there's also the angle too of like, it also puts Viserys and Rhaenyra as kind of...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, another one that we felt was coming. Okay, so this is fascinating too, because in the books, it's known that quote unquote something happened between them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeah, it's unknown what happened, like there are various rumors. One is that she had a crush on him and he spurned her. Another is that they hooked up and that it was her that was in the driver's seat. Another one is that it was him that was in the driver's seat. But this was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was really sweet, not to mention like the iconic fairy tale aspects of it. This handsome knight in shining armor whose job is legitimately to protect this princess. It felt very...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was when Cole is sent by the Queen to summon Rhaenyra the next day and it's the first time they've seen each other after. She is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So happy to see him in a way that felt really just like authentically sweet. It felt like a moment that you don't see often in this world where it's just like, she caught some feelings for this really good looking guy who clearly like feels away for her and she can't wait to see him again. Question Greta.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's assume that Damon has legitimate feelings for Raniera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are different and maybe a little bit more authentic and pure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you have one you prefer? Do you have a suitor you prefer? Oh, who would I ship? Is that what you're asking me? Who you shippin'? Uncle Damon or Sir Kristen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Normal, that is the kind of culture of that family. And even within Westeros where such things are really, really, really strongly unlawful and frowned upon. You know, Jaime and Cersei could never reveal the truth of their relationship because they'd both be executed, you know? But there's different rules for Targaryens and there always have been. This is a vile accusation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need me to call you an Uber or anything? Like no, he's just like bye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think it's honestly the only choice. I mean, like obviously with Kristen as well, there are certain details that we'd have to ignore, namely that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is bound by sworn oath to defend the king and his family and never take a, you know, never take a wife and all that. So this actually can't happen. Like it's against the law. Also it's the princess. They'll cut off his head easily for this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of gossip, a real game of telephone going on here, and I thought it really


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ironic that, you know, for whatever did happen between Raniera and Damon. Mhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, right? If they were still friends, they could do that. I will say, Allison,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was really really touched by the way Alicent went to bat for Raniera not needing to, not being asked to for no reason other than...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's the whole thing, right? It's like, yeah, we can do it because we were guys, but she can't do it because what it would mean to the realm now, how can I, who will take her now is a conversation that was being had. And in fact,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of that led to that final scene where Grand Maester Melos delivers the plan T to Rhaenyra's room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess we should talk about the pact that is sealed at the end of this when Viserys at Alicent's urging decides that whatever the truth


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Legitimately day one. A vulture. He needs to be up out of here. A vulture. On your throne. Get him out of here. And Viserys goes for it. He agrees to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely. And it's an interesting balance he strikes too, because he's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I think he's gonna stick around. It's like he's on the ten yard line about to score a touchdown. Like he's not gonna give up now. And it's very, very clear from that scene we saw in the previous episode with his brother, Hobart, that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, one thing I think is worth talking about is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The moment when Viserys has Rhaenyra to his room and she sees the Cat's Ball Blade, the Valyrian Dagger, which we remember from Game of Thrones as being the weapon used against Bran Stark in that attempted assassination, and that later set a whole bunch of events in motion that we saw over the course of that series,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She sees it in a brazier and it's being heated and then Viserys says, look there's writing on it, which one of Aegon the Conqueror's pyromancers put on the blade and it basically says,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has to do many think and many interpreted as a kind of final showdown between good and evil light and darkness that would involve this prince that was promised would be kind of like the figure upon which everything hinges now this being.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] King Joffrey, himself who shouldn't have been king, an absolute dummy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gave away the prophetic dagger, the only rec-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of why Aegon the Conqueror came to Westeros because he wanted to kill this kid that he didn't even know because he was mad at him. Like just kind of sums up King Joffrey's rule in one thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who you were, uhm, I think that that's correct. He's Amos Bracken, RIP, and uh, the Bracken and Blackwood feud continues.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What motivates Kristen? You mentioned, you know, coming from the Dornish Marches, being this kind of natural born son of the steward and kind of being outside of things. What is it that motivates Kristen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Take us back into the audition process. What was that like and at what point did you realize what you were going out for?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You mentioned the tournament. Kristen starts the series in episode one with a bang competing against Damon in the finals of that tournament. What was that like filming that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From the beginning of their relationship, Kristen and Raniera, it seems like there's some sort of spark. Is that the case for Kristen or is he just like all about the job?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How long does it take to get off the armor? What's the ETA on that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And what is going on in Kristen's head and heart after this takes place?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When, uh, Renira and Kristen are in the woods before the, uh, the pig killing, Renira asks Kristen, do you think the realm will ever accept me? And he gives a kind of non-committal


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sort of not great answer, which is essentially they have, you know, they have no choice but to. Does he think she'll be a good queen? Does Kristen think that Raniera would be a good queen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, he's quite out of place and higher in terms of station than he probably ever imagined, right? 100%. He was the soldier, kind of on the outside of society over in Blackhaven, all of a sudden he's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the inner circles of the crown princess, of various other royal places, that's gotta be really unmooring for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that opening tournament scene, you see Kristen wheeling a mace. What was the weapons training like?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you go through the audition process with the mystery sides, and then at some point you realize what it is, and you mentioned being a Game of Thrones fan, so what was that moment like when you sussed it out, you figured out what it was?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the show is out now, and are you able to like process that that's you, that this is happening, that there are millions of people watching this show?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's great about it is it lets people get a peek of how much passion and creativity and work goes into every aspect of this. I think that's one of the most


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting and fascinating things about TV and this show in particular. It's just like how hard everybody is going for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I was thinking about the parallels with Cole himself, you know, Cole is experiencing this meteoric and kind of unexpected rise to the lofty heights and Fabian is experiencing the same thing in a different kind of way, which is, it just must be so intense.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this season of the podcast, I'm covering cases of parasite. That's the act of a child killing their parents.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some historical examples of Parasite are Lizzie Borden, who killed her parents with an axe, and Lyle and Eric Menendez, who shot their parents so many times with a shotgun, they were unrecognizable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unfortunately, some of the cases of Parasite don't only include just the parents.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The term familicide is used to describe someone who kills their entire family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Used most commonly with family annihilators like Chris Watts or Michael Jones Jr. It also applies to kids who kill their parents and siblings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Paul Moans, an organ-based attorney who has worked on parasite cases around the United States, said that between 1 and 2 percent of homicides in the country involve children killing their parents. The most common cases are of sons who kill their fathers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's not a lot of information available about the Bever family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Neighbors say that the family of nine was quiet and reclusive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They lived in a large house in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma about 20 minutes southeast of Tulsa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] David and April Bever married in Texas when she was only 15 years old, according to comments she made on her reddit account.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] David worked for Sampson Resources in the IT department.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His co-workers described him as a quiet man who kept to himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His supervisor, Lisa Wolf, said that he was a nice guy who didn't get involved in office politics, and that was the type of person she liked to work with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The couple went on to have seven children. At the time of the murders, they were 18-year-old Robert, 16-year-old Michael, 13-year-old Crystal, 12-year-old Daniel,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 7-year-old Christopher, 5-year-old Victoria, and 2-year-old Autumn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The youngest was born premature and April created a non-profit called Autumn's Hope to raise money to help other people who had children who were born ill or premature.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of the children were homeschooled their entire lives, but none of the homeschooling groups in the area had any interactions with the bevers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of David's previous supervisors even founded the Cornerstone Homeschool Cooperative in Broken Arrow, but she said in an interview that she had never seen them associate with any homeschooling groups.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Neighbors said the children only played in their own backyard and the family seemed to actively stay away from social gatherings in the neighborhood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seemed that the parents wanted to protect their children from the outside world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It might have something to do with Robert's claim that he had attended preschool outside the home, but he had been molested, which caused his parents to pull him out of the school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seemed as though they let that outside world into their home as they had very few restrictions on internet usage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The children were free to use a number of tablets and computers to access whatever they wanted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, I don't believe that media such as the internet, movies, music, and video games cause children to become violent, but it's still a place where they can find inspiration for ideas they're already having.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Early on, it seemed as though the boys were interested in the same things as other boys their age. Star Wars, sports cars, and the band Linkin Park.

[Assistant] Oh, and we can't forget Minecraft. He made two vlog videos where he seems like your average goofy teenager.

[Assistant] At some point, Robert became interested in murder and started looking at stories about famous serial killers and mass shooters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Michael looked up to his older brother, and the two shared everything, even their thoughts about committing mass murder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The pair fed off each other, reading stories about Ted Bundy and Richard Ramirez. They idolized school shooters and started talking about wanting to be famous and killing more people than the other mass shooters. It was also reported that they had talked about making a video of their family's murder and posting it to YouTube at a later date. They started watching the movie Rampage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, not the Dwayne Johnson movie. An independent movie released straight to video in 2009.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It takes place in a fictional town in Oregon where a 21 year old man who hates society believes that he needs to kill as many people as he can to reduce the population and bring balance back to society.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He crafts a set of full-body armor and heads into town with an arsenal of weapons. He bombs the police station and then kills as many people as he can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The worst part about the movie, spoiler alert, just in case you want to watch it, trust me, you don't want to watch it, is that he gets away with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He somehow frames his only friend, and at the end of the movie, he takes off to go commit another killing spree somewhere else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The movie became a source of inspiration and helped the two cultivate their ultimate plan. They didn't just want to become famous for mass murder, they wanted to be famous for having killed the most people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They wanted to travel across the country, racking up a kill count in the hundreds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They specifically wanted a Wikipedia page about themselves. Ironically, if you search for them on Wikipedia, you won't find any articles specifically about them. What you will find is an article titled Broken Arrow Killings, which describes the event, but doesn't really focus on Robert and Michael.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if that was on purpose, but I like that it's a subtle slap in their faces.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Robert had a job working for Mic Attack, which was a Christian call center where people could call in and the person working on the phone would pray with them. This gave him money to start funding their plans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He started ordering parts to put together a full set of body armor for both himself and Michael.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both boys began collecting knives, something that Crystal had told her parents she was uncomfortable with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They brushed it off as normal boy behavior and didn't intervene in the boy's hobby.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What their parents didn't realize was that Robert was also purchasing guns and ammunition. Once he turned 18, he realized that he was able to purchase guns and the two began planning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It sounds like Robert was able to purchase guns online and have them shipped to a gun store where he would be able to pick them up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At some point before the murders, a gun store employee called Robert to let him know that a shotgun and two Glock pistols were ready for pickup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, you may be asking, how are his parents not going to notice thousands of rounds of ammunition showing up at their home? Well, that was the beginning of the plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were going to murder their family and use the house to receive the ammo, then steal the family's GMC Yukon and go on their road trip of random killing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This kid doesn't even know how to drive a car, and he's planning on traveling across the country to commit mass murder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They actually picked the date they would murder their family based on when the ammo would arrive at their house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Robert had been taking money out of the bank and putting it away in their room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They sat down and specifically plotted out exactly how they were going to kill each family member, one by one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The plan was to wait until the whole family was asleep the night before the ammo was to be delivered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then, Michael was going to use a small crossbow to quietly shoot his father in the head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then they were going to go room by room and kill the other members of their family with a knife.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems as though they believed that stabbing someone would instantly kill them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then wait a couple of days and leave the state and begin the spree."


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometime between 11 and 1130, on the night of July 22nd, 2015, Michael and Robert were in the bedroom that they shared and decided that now was the time to put their plan in motion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Michael's account, he went out into the living room and told his sister, Crystal, that he wanted to show her something on his computer. As she came into the room and stood by Michael's desk, Robert attacked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Crystal, she had gone into their bedroom on her own to tell both of them that their mother wanted them to do the dishes. When she went in their room, she saw them putting on body armor and that they had an assortment of knives laid out on the bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She heard Michael say, quote, should we do it right now? End quote. To which Robert replied, quote, yes. End quote.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Michael asked Crystal to look at something on his computer, and when she did, Robert came up behind her and slit her throat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Robert was under the impression that slitting her throat would kill her quickly and silently, but a lifetime of action movies had lied to him, and Crystal began screaming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The screams from Crystal alerted their mother, and when Robert turned his attention to her, Crystal was able to run out of the room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The girl was able to get out of the house and collapsed in the driveway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] April began screaming for someone to call the police before Robert began stabbing her with the same knife and eventually pushed her into the kitchen where he continued stabbing her in the neck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At this point, the house erupted into chaos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After Robert was finished with his mother, he went out the front door, grabbed Crystal, and dragged her back onto the front porch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He then went to find the younger kids and told Michael to bring Crystal back inside.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Michael dragged his sister back into the house and left her lying in the entryway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He must have locked the door, because authorities said it was locked when they arrived at the scene.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Christopher had locked himself into the bathroom with their sister, Victoria.
