00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:12,200
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sheep Get Sheared podcast, home of people, politics,

2
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,200
and popular culture.

3
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,200
I'm your host Austin Creed, my friends.

4
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:17,200
Happy New Year!

5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:18,200
We made it!

6
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,560
2023 is behind us.

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,880
It's in the rearview mirror.

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,640
We gotta focus on the new year.

9
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:31,040
First of all, before we get the show really started, I want to ask you, did you even make

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,560
a New Year's resolution this year?

11
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:34,680
I kinda made one.

12
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,840
I made one for my businesses.

13
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,440
For business I did.

14
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,240
For personal, I don't really see a need to make one.

15
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:48,920
But personally, for me, what I do is I just say, hey, I'm gonna do something and I work

16
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,040
towards that thing.

17
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,600
I don't need resolutions.

18
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,560
I don't need none of this garbage.

19
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,160
I just do what I want to do.

20
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,120
If I set my mind to it, I do it.

21
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,640
I don't need none of this garbage.

22
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:07,560
But my friends, when it comes down to it, we need to discuss something a little more

23
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:08,560
serious.

24
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:15,960
It's the first day of the new year and we're discussing something extremely important.

25
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:17,280
Love.

26
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,080
Love is usually on the minds of everybody.

27
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,120
It's on the minds of everybody.

28
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:29,640
So what I really want to ask you is, are you looking for love this year?

29
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,340
Are you looking for the one?

30
00:01:31,340 --> 00:01:34,840
Are you looking for someone who's gonna complete your life and you're gonna live happily ever

31
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,840
after and you're gonna get that corner of your life squared away forever?

32
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,760
Well, if you are, I wish you good luck.

33
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:49,080
The dating marketplace is, shall we say, trash.

34
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:55,160
Number one, I mean, gentlemen, gentlemen, if you are a more religious guy like me or

35
00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:01,600
that's how I grew up, if you're more of somebody who grew up within a subsection of society,

36
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:07,880
you didn't grow up, you didn't go to public school, you didn't go to the YMCA, you didn't

37
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,800
go to these places that were very mainstream and very public places.

38
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,400
You didn't go to public middle school, public high school, you didn't go to public college,

39
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,160
you didn't do all this kind of stuff.

40
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:25,000
You may not be aware or maybe you're aware of it, but you don't realize how widespread

41
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,320
it is.

42
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:32,120
Gentlemen, being like the whole good guy routine, it ain't caught in it no more.

43
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:37,160
Being a quote good guy who is emotionally available when he treats women right and does

44
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,160
all this stuff.

45
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,800
Yeah, he ain't getting nothing besides exploited in today's marketplace.

46
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,800
I'm sorry.

47
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:48,200
I wish I could tell you that was false, but it is just a fact of reality.

48
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,800
They want to talk with a degree and you ain't to park with a degree.

49
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,440
Well then you'll get, you'll hit you with the Hey stranger text when you're about 30,

50
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,680
35 years old and she's ready to settle down.

51
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,240
You heard that saying, I want to settle down.

52
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:10,320
I'm tired of the jerks and the mean guys and I want something to take me seriously.

53
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,320
You ever heard that before?

54
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,320
You heard that on social media.

55
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,200
You heard that in your personal life.

56
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,200
You've seen it.

57
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,680
You've probably seen it or you've heard someone talk about it, but you're not sure how widespread

58
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,680
it is.

59
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:27,000
My friends, I want to settle this once and for all.

60
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,480
Love is the opium of the lemmings.

61
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,040
You may not be completely sure as to what a lemming is.

62
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,520
A lemming is someone who just follows the crowd.

63
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,720
They kind of do what they're told.

64
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,280
They follow the leader.

65
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,560
They just go along with the program.

66
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,240
They don't steer the boat.

67
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,600
They don't do anything that's really outside the norm.

68
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,400
And if that's you, that's fine.

69
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,680
That's the way you want to live.

70
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,680
I would never choose to do it, but that's what you want to do.

71
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:57,680
That's fine.

72
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,240
But I was going to tell you, if you want to come out here and you want to achieve what

73
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:06,120
your father did, your grandfather did in that regard, the odds are not in your favor.

74
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,120
Is it impossible?

75
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,120
No, but I wouldn't, I wouldn't use that time to do that.

76
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,700
I mean, let's think about it.

77
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:19,120
How many people are telling you, Hey, let's not focus on putting the cart before the horse.

78
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,960
Let's come out here and let's make something of ourselves.

79
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,240
Let's let's build a business.

80
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,120
Let's focus on our career.

81
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,920
Let's do something that is going to really set us apart.

82
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,040
Gentlemen, you want a great dating advice.

83
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,320
If you're a younger guy or a middle-aged guy, even if you're someone who was just wanting

84
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:41,320
to get back in the dating pool, whether it's you're new entirely or you checked out because

85
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,400
you got married or you're in a serious relationship and now you're getting back in the saddle.

86
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:51,160
My friends, if you want good quality dating advice, you know what you should be listening

87
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,160
to?

88
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,600
You should be listening to these like boss babe women who make these videos on Instagram,

89
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,280
tick tock, Twitter, Facebook, all these places.

90
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:03,960
That's like telling women they need a boss up and they need to get their money, get their

91
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,660
bag, blah, blah, blah.

92
00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:10,880
Every time I hear a video like that, I think to myself, my God, that is perfect advice

93
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,560
for men and horrendous advice for women.

94
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:19,180
The feminism line is actually what men should be doing for themselves.

95
00:05:19,180 --> 00:05:22,080
Not this, not this, oh, I want to find a partner.

96
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,520
No, I'm sure no, no, you don't want a partner.

97
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:25,760
You want a wife.

98
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,760
Your wife is not your partner.

99
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:34,720
That's another Aesopian term used to take you out of the reins of power and give it

100
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,000
to them.

101
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,320
My friends, women don't want to be in charge of relationship.

102
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:45,040
I don't care if what they tell you, they don't want to be in charge.

103
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,200
You ever ask a woman where she wants to go out to eat?

104
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,800
You ever asked her where she wants to go to eat and she's like, I don't care.

105
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,360
You choose and you're like, okay, let's go Chinese.

106
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,600
No, no, I don't want to do Chinese.

107
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,360
Okay, let's go get burgers.

108
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,840
No, I don't want that.

109
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:05,400
I'm feeling bloated.

110
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,400
Okay.

111
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:12,120
Well, let's go get some tacos, tacos two days ago.

112
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,040
Again, and then you ask her, okay, where do you want to go?

113
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,040
I don't care.

114
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,040
You're like, what?

115
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,840
This is, that is what happens when women lead a relationship.

116
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:26,000
You go nowhere and then you're stuck in the emotional playground and then you end up like

117
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:33,880
Alice talking to the treasure cat in the looking glass and she's like, I don't want to go,

118
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:39,120
I don't want to talk to mad people and the treasure cats like, Oh, you can't help that.

119
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,800
Most everyone's mad near.

120
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,040
That's what you end up with is you end up with professional gaslighters.

121
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,080
You end up with having to deal with the bullshit.

122
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,840
You end up thinking that that's normal.

123
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:58,280
Gentlemen, if you're below the age of 30 like me and you're out here dealing with this bullshit

124
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:06,280
of this toxic gaslighting chicks of arguing and explaining and fighting and all the bickering

125
00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:07,720
and all that crap.

126
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,560
Oh, for the love of God, get out of there now.

127
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,000
You know what is going to happen to you?

128
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,000
That's not love.

129
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,040
You see, we've been lied to.

130
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:25,380
They think that love equals, Oh, we have so much conflict, but we work through it.

131
00:07:25,380 --> 00:07:27,500
That is so wrong.

132
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:29,680
That is so stupid.

133
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,640
That is so stupid.

134
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,080
First of all, no.

135
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:40,880
Second of all, when it says is you have no leverage because if you had leverage, she

136
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,960
wouldn't be putting you through the bullshit.

137
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,820
She wouldn't be making you deal with her garbage.

138
00:07:45,820 --> 00:07:47,660
She wouldn't be testing you.

139
00:07:47,660 --> 00:07:51,120
She wouldn't be trying to throw curve balls and have you catch them.

140
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,300
She wouldn't be moving the goalpost while you try to kick the field goal.

141
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:58,360
She wouldn't be doing any of that crap because she'd be like, Oh, if I do that, he might

142
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,640
actually drop me.

143
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:05,480
Oh, if I do that, you might actually exercise his other options and I might be left out

144
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,480
in the cold.

145
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,120
Or if I do that, he might replace me.

146
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,520
She's not thinking that because she knows she got you.

147
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,840
She knows that you don't have leverage.

148
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,640
She knows you're not going to walk away.

149
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,240
And yet we call that love.

150
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:26,240
That's why monogamy is stupid in my opinion, especially with the marriage laws, especially

151
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:31,920
with the fact that love itself is for lemmings because love is not what we thought it was.

152
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:32,920
We will.

153
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:38,060
We have been raised to believe thanks to Walt Disney, the Warner brothers and all these

154
00:08:38,060 --> 00:08:42,960
other people that love is all about feelings.

155
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,920
If you feel in love and you're in love, if you don't feel like you're in love, well,

156
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,160
then you must have fallen out of love.

157
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,160
Sound familiar?

158
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,560
Well, guess what?

159
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:53,680
That is how women think.

160
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:55,720
That's why they want to park with a degree.

161
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,040
They want them to be exciting.

162
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,040
They want them to be edgy.

163
00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,800
They want to be a little controversial.

164
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:05,840
They also want him to be nice, thoughtful, caring and intimate, but only with them.

165
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,520
Everybody else he treats like absolute crap, but her, they treat her like, oh, you my princess,

166
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,520
you my queen.

167
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:13,520
Girl, I got you.

168
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,680
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

169
00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:19,280
Does anybody want to actually deal with that crap?

170
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,280
No, I know.

171
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,320
I can already hear it.

172
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,800
I have the best stethoscope in the business.

173
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,160
I already know some of you right now are bucking.

174
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,040
You're thinking Austin, that's stupid.

175
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,200
You're just bittering her and you find out you found these women and you're basing this

176
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,640
off of one person in your life or, oh, this isn't true because my girl didn't do that.

177
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,780
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

178
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:46,120
Let me tell you something that you just don't want to see it.

179
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:52,160
I can give you every proof under the sun, but of course, because you are trying to fight

180
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,040
me.

181
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,480
First of all, you're never going to beat me.

182
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:56,480
I'm sorry.

183
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:57,480
You just can't.

184
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:03,880
If you want to try to talk over me, if you want to try to debate me, I will only debate

185
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,720
someone who's actually approaching me in good faith.

186
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,720
Okay.

187
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,800
I will not debate someone who's going to walk into the conversation saying, here's what

188
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:12,800
you're going to do.

189
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:13,800
Here's what you're not going to do.

190
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:14,800
Blah, blah, blah.

191
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,720
No, I can deal with that.

192
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:24,860
But if you want to have a very respectful in good faith conversation with me, my DMS

193
00:10:24,860 --> 00:10:27,420
are open on Twitter.

194
00:10:27,420 --> 00:10:32,720
You are welcome to ask me to ask me a question.

195
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,680
Just started with, Hey Austin, I have a question from X episode that you said, and this is

196
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:39,520
what you said that I didn't like.

197
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:40,520
Let's talk about it.

198
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,360
Unless you started with that, I don't know what you're talking about because I'm going

199
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,840
to be honest with you.

200
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,040
I say a lot of things.

201
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,440
I repeat a lot of things.

202
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:49,920
I've done multiple episodes.

203
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:50,920
Okay.

204
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,440
I'm almost at 300 episodes.

205
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:57,120
You're going to have to be more specific, but let's get back to love because let's see

206
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,460
all people who seem to care about what I've talked to a lot of people that are my age

207
00:11:01,460 --> 00:11:02,880
in the early twenties.

208
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,960
They do not understand what I'm talking about.

209
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:06,960
They are like, what?

210
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,120
You must not be able to get chicks.

211
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,240
You just don't know.

212
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,240
You don't have game.

213
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:16,360
Well, it's like, dude, I never said I had trouble getting women because I'll be honest

214
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,360
with you.

215
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,360
I don't.

216
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:19,360
Okay.

217
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:20,360
I don't.

218
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,280
I don't care if you believe me or not, because whether you believe what I said doesn't change

219
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:25,840
the fact that it's true.

220
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:30,840
If you met me in real life and you saw what I do on an average day and I see all the texts

221
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,800
I have to ignore and, and shit like that, you wouldn't, you would not debate me.

222
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:35,800
But you know what?

223
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,160
Again, it all goes back to you want love.

224
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,880
You want this idea of Snow White and the seven dwarfs type love.

225
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,440
You want this, um, Jay Z Beyonce love.

226
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,120
You want this love that's not even based on anything that's actually real.

227
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,840
It's all fantasy.

228
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,360
But because you like it so much, you want it to be real.

229
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,900
So you try to make it a real thing.

230
00:11:58,900 --> 00:12:01,120
And then you follow what the society says.

231
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,840
Oh, oh, you want love.

232
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,560
Oh, you want love.

233
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:05,560
Oh, okay.

234
00:12:05,560 --> 00:12:06,560
Cool.

235
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:07,560
Here's what you're going to do.

236
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:08,560
You're going to do this.

237
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:09,560
You're going to get married.

238
00:12:09,560 --> 00:12:10,560
You're going to walk her down the aisle.

239
00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:11,560
You're going to pay for everything.

240
00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:12,560
You're going to do this.

241
00:12:12,560 --> 00:12:13,560
You're going to do that.

242
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:18,080
And you're going to invest in her and invest in her and invest in her and invest in her.

243
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,440
She got a blossom, like a beautiful flower.

244
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,120
And then she's going to give you all that sweet honey.

245
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,600
And then you are going to be fantastic.

246
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,160
That is not how it works.

247
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,160
I'm sorry.

248
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,880
I wish I could sit here and tell you, hi gentlemen, welcome to see if you get your podcast where

249
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,880
I tell you everything about love and how it's amazing.

250
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,880
And I need to get married today.

251
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:40,880
Not right now.

252
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,360
Not tomorrow, but today.

253
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,760
No, I can't do it.

254
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,040
I can't do it because guess what?

255
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:51,040
I'd be leading you down the Primrose path where you're about to get put on the altar

256
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,480
and sacrifice to the system.

257
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,640
And I'm not going to do it.

258
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,440
I'm not going to do it.

259
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,920
I will not do it.

260
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:02,500
The marriage laws will only change if people hold out.

261
00:13:02,500 --> 00:13:04,120
You got guys like Matt Walsh.

262
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,360
I've mentioned this before who I normally agree with on certain political things.

263
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,160
But then he comes out here and he says that, oh, you know, divorce could totally fuck

264
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,160
you over.

265
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,920
But, but you got to do it anyways, because that's what real men do.

266
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,320
And I'm not here like, are you kidding me?

267
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,480
What I'm sorry.

268
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,480
What real men do?

269
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,480
Huh?

270
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:26,480
When?

271
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:27,480
Why?

272
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:28,480
No.

273
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,600
Gentlemen, this is why I tell you love is for lemmings.

274
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,100
Love is a luxury you can't afford.

275
00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:35,100
Love is expensive gentlemen.

276
00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:37,760
It ain't free.

277
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:43,600
If love was so free, can you kindly explain why all the rich, handsome, successful guys

278
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,080
with cash seem to find love?

279
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:52,960
Whereas the broke guys who have no game, who are goofy, who are ugly and short can't find

280
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:53,960
love.

281
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:54,960
Hmm.

282
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:55,960
Oh.

283
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,200
Why, that's really interesting.

284
00:13:58,200 --> 00:13:59,200
Isn't it?

285
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,200
Hmm.

286
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:06,760
So love is supposed to be something that everybody deserves, but yet I can't help but see that

287
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:15,840
the rich, successful, handsome guys have all the love and the guys with no money, no charisma,

288
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:21,400
no good looks, no high, no money happen to find no love.

289
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,400
Huh.

290
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:23,400
Huh.

291
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,480
That's, um, that's really interesting.

292
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,480
Isn't it?

293
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,480
Yes.

294
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,600
Yes, it is.

295
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,400
Rich then drives my point home.

296
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,960
This whole idea of love is for lemmings.

297
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:41,400
My friends, this is a new year, the first day of the year.

298
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,280
Stop focusing on things that are just, they're intangibles.

299
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,280
You can't hold on to it.

300
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,680
It's like trying to hold onto the soap in the shower.

301
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,880
You're trying to squeeze it really hard and hold on, it's going to jump out of your hand.

302
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,080
If it's too loose, it's going to fall down.

303
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:04,360
You have to decide whether you're going to play this game or if you're going to get leverage.

304
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:09,040
You have to decide whether you're going to play the game or walk off the beaten path

305
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,440
to be a trailblazer.

306
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:16,860
My friends, a moment to grift here on the Sheep Kits Sheared podcast.

307
00:15:16,860 --> 00:15:23,240
If you are wanting to go off the beaten path, if you're wanting to go your own way, if you're

308
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:30,080
wanting to start your year off with a new approach, my book, Biblical Bachelor, is the

309
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,080
book for you.

310
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,080
I'm serious.

311
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:37,600
I wrote this book not to get rich, but to help men like me who want to improve their

312
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:43,480
lives, who want to get off the beaten path and who want to stack that bread without dealing

313
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,200
with toxic bitches and playing English.

314
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:55,400
Now, moment of grifting is over, but my friends, I'm not joking about this.

315
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:56,400
I'm giving it to you.

316
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,120
That book is not expensive.

317
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,400
I have a friend, he's one of my best friends.

318
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,280
He's an author who's written many more books than me.

319
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,740
And he said to me, Austin, why is your book so cheap, dude?

320
00:16:08,740 --> 00:16:09,740
You should up that price.

321
00:16:09,740 --> 00:16:13,200
And I said, no, no, I'm not going to do it.

322
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,200
Why?

323
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,400
Because I want more people to afford this book.

324
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:21,040
I want people to read it, not so that I can make a lot of money, but because they can

325
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,960
improve and change their life forever.

326
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:25,960
That is my goal.

327
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,880
If I get original on the way, great.

328
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,240
But I want to help people.

329
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,360
And having an expensive book doesn't help people.

330
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:34,360
It only helps me.

331
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,040
And I want to help you.

332
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,120
So my friends, if you want to start the year off in a new direction, Biblical Bachelor,

333
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,560
my book, it's on, I have an audio book.

334
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,320
So if you want to listen to the audio book while you're driving in your car or you're

335
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,760
on a plane or whatever, you can do that.

336
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,880
That's available to you.

337
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:56,640
I've gone out of my way as much as possible at very high personal expense because I want

338
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,240
you to improve your life.

339
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,760
But only you can do that.

340
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,440
I can't do it for you.

341
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,640
I can't make it make sense for you.

342
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:11,120
I can only give you what I am able to give and you have to put the pieces together for

343
00:17:11,120 --> 00:17:12,120
yourself.

344
00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:16,560
So my friends, do not let love guide you this year.

345
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,000
Let your desire to improve and be better guide you this year.

346
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,320
I hope this year is the best year of your life.

347
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:28,280
This could be the year that you become the best version of yourself and you look back

348
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:36,320
this time next year in 2025 and you say, damn, my life is so much different and I am loving

349
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,960
it.

350
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:48,320
Last night I had flashbacks to my military days last night and it was, it was trippy quite

351
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,480
honestly, but it was one of the best things that happened to me because it made me realize

352
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:55,720
how far I've come since I left the military.

353
00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:00,240
I want you to have that same experience that you can only happen if you put in the work

354
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:06,080
now, not tomorrow, not next week, not next month.

355
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:12,320
Now, hey, whether it's you, you buy my book and it helps you or you buy someone else's

356
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,760
book or you just do it yourself.

357
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,760
All of those are acceptable, but you have to do something.

358
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,640
That is what I want for you.

359
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:28,120
My friends stay informed, stay vigilant and for God's sakes, please keep questioning everything

360
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:30,560
that comes across your radar.

361
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,920
My friends, I'll see you next time.

362
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:33,920
Happy new year.

363
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:39,200
Enjoy the day, but start it off right and start with a new approach and improve your

364
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,920
life and stop sitting on your hands.

365
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:42,920
I'm out.

366
00:18:42,920 --> 00:19:04,420
Bye guys.
