Dwight Schultz - The Power of Podcasts, Remembering Breitbart and the Importance of Speaking Out
Show Notes and Transcript
Dwight Schultz is our podcaster in residence and we are five episodes in to his zany common sense commentary on this increasingly mad world.
It has been many years since Dwight has done a video interview so this is a special treat, he discusses all things podcast and how this new media medium is having such an impact.
He shares some stories from his friendship with Andrew Breitbart and how he was instrumental in Dwight being so vocal as a Conservative.
We finish off with a call for every lover of freedom to use their voice to calmly speak truth.
We each have a responsibility to help open the eyes of those around us and we will see real change when we seize those opportunities.
A respected performer on Broadway, Dwight Schultz found everlasting fame by playing the certifiable "Howling Mad" Murdock on the action series "The A-Team" (1983-86).
A living, breathing cartoon with a seemingly endless selection of voices and accents at his command, Murdock provided the air power for the A-Team's clandestine adventures, provided that his compatriots could break him out of the mental hospital where he resided.
One of the show's most popular and memorable figures, Murdock ensured Schultz steady work on television and on the big screen playing Reginald Barclay in "Star Trek: The Next Generation"
An accomplished voice actor, Dwight can be heard in numerous hit computer games and in countless animated shows.

Transcript(Hearts of Oak)
Dwight Schultz. It's great to have you back, and this time in a moving picture.
Thanks so much for joining us today.
(Dwight Schultz)
Yes, it's my favourite thing in the world to do, looking at oneself.
Looking at oneself, it's just, I've, you know there are these actors like Henry Fonda used to, he couldn't watch himself.
I have never been able to watch myself. It's a, it's, in show business.
It just is one of those, you just find, you spend the rest of the day going over every little thing you hated and critiqued and you can't go on.
So it's best not, and that's why I love the theatre. You don't have to look at yourself. The audience is telling you that it's working or it's not.
And, but this is modern entertainment and modern news.
This is it. So you have to be able to put your toes in there with toenail fungus and all.
Well, I want to touch on the podcast because it's been a surreal experience having Dwight Schultz do podcasts for me and for us at Hearts of Oak.
I've thoroughly enjoyed listening to your thoughts dropping onto that audio communication.
Maybe I'll play just I think a two-minute clip or one-and-a-half-minute clip, of one of them to get, give people an idea of what they will find and underneath on the screen hearts of oak.podbean.com, is where people can find it. Let us know what, because I guess you put that down and it's what's happening currently.
There's a lot happening currently. There are never a shortage of things to comment on, kind of what has it been like putting your thoughts down on those?
Okay.
So yeah, but just let us know what that's been like for you.
Well, well, I mean, you know, it is streaming of consciousness.
I mean, that's what I, you know, I have done radio for Mark Masters and the Talk Radio Network.
I had my own podcast many, many years ago.
And it was, you do a show and you do 45 minutes or an hour and then that's it.
This is a, I wanted to do an edited thoughts during the day.
And frequently, routines come up in my mind during the day when you're talking, and they don't come out in an hour broadcast.
But I get ideas for comedy bits, and that's what we call them, bits. And that's what I am. I'm basically a...
A bit guy. I'm doing my bit.
And you find things that strike you as humorous, and you wish you had had that in the podcast or in the radio broadcast.
But this way, I can do that.
As I'm putting together and stitching together thoughts, I will then spend several hours working on something that I found funny, and I think others will.
Usually, it's outrageous nonsense that people take seriously.
And for instance, the Babylon Bee.
I love the Babylon Bee in the United States, and I used as an example the other day their very pithy description of the attack on Israel by Hamas.
And they used Cain and Abel as the analogy.
And they, you know, Cain killed Abel and immediately called for a ceasefire after checking to see if Abel's pulse had stopped, you know.
And that kind of thing is brilliant. I mean, they're brilliant.
They just are brilliant. And it's not easy to come up with some of these ideas.
They are amazing.
They hit it every time. And they have a, so that's that's sort of the kind of thing I try to do in the midst of blah, blah, blah, talking.
The bits are actually more important than the blah, blah, blah.
But the blah, blah, blah fills the time.
So it's actually I've got a friend and her her dream is to be a writer for Babylon Bee.
Oh, that's a high bar.
Yes, that would be wonderful. But, but I, you know, the last thing I did was, was Xi, Xi coming over to see our, um.
Our illustrious president, a man of many careers.
He should have been an actor. That's what he should have been.
He should have been an actor. He's much better.
But I just saw, and I did, I mean, I literally thought of the conversation between Xi and a friend in San Francisco after he met with our illustrious president, giving away the store, you know, we, you know, he's, he's been called by some famous, columnists in the United States, a controlled asset of the an enemy, right.
And I think it's fairly accurate.
And so I just did, you know, I did a routine, I did a routine on it and indeed, I think I got my inspiration from Greg Gutfeld on the, for the routine, but anyway, it happens and it happens in 10 minutes.
Sometimes it happens in three hours, but, that's, you know, that's my view of their conversation and what was going to happen ultimately.
Well, let me, I just want to play a two minute clip and then ask you for kind of, it's obviously different from scripted, what you get voiceover and have done for 20 years.
Let me just play this two minute clip and let people have a flavour of what they can can find on your many podcasts, up to five now. So let me play this clip here...
(Clip plays)
Anybody who looks at this dumb piece of dead meat with strings being pulled by Barack Obama and our country being sold down the river, when all of the evidence is there and all of the good people who worked hard are being called criminals and all of the criminals are accusing us of what they are doing.
Donald Trump will not turn this into a dictatorship. We already have a dictatorship.
We have a Department of Social Justice now. That's all you need to know.
All that you have to do is look at what is happening in the streets.
Please call me by my pronouns. Call me by my pronouns and I have 12 of them.
All right, and please go to Citizen Free Press and look at the video of the dumbass who was caught drunk driving and what excuses this individual used to try to get out of being caught drunk driving.
It's what's being taught in schools. How to avoid arrest for drunk driving.
First of all, pull the number of pronouns that you have in your wallet out and stick them on the windshield and have the officer read them in the dark.
And if you can, put them on backwards so that he has to go around the other side to read them. I mean, it's please, folks.
Never in the history of the United States have such incomprehensibly horrific ideas been used to destroy society.
But they they're horrific because it is so clear and obvious.
(Clip ends)
It's a great end never in the history of such a horrific.
I thought it's a beautiful end because it's a reality check.
It really is.
It is. And it doesn't stop.
It doesn't stop day to day.
And I see things and I know I'm not the only one. I mean, I know that.
We know people who all see this and we want to scream out for and let me give you another for instance.
This one truly, truly gets me in the very first podcast I did underneath everything in the introduction, I use Barack Obama screaming at his, we have to have a national police force that's as powerful as the United States military, blah, blah, blah.
And everybody, and I remember when he did that and everybody was saying, what the hell is he talking about? Right? Well, what he was talking about is defund the police, re-imagine the police.
The police are not there. And it started big time during COVID with George Floyd, which we are now discovering was a communist hoax.
They all are just like COVID. So you had Floyd and you had COVID.
The police are defunded. They're called names.
Adams in New York is now, what, they're behind by 400, 1000 police officers?
You don't have a police force locally.
So what happened? What is the plan? What are the communists doing?
Well, we defund, or as Barack says, re-imagine them not being there.
And then the Deus Ex Machina, the federal government, comes in and says, we will come in and save you.
We will fund the police. Well.
You know, the Congress of the United States, the house just passed the money for an FBI building that is bigger than the Pentagon.
Now, Barack wanted that, right? They're funding it.
They're funding the beginnings of the way the communists imagine the country, a national Gestapo that, is just like Klaus Schwab says, you know, Xi is the perfect model.
That's the model for the world that we're going to give you in which you will own nothing but be happier for it.
And here are members, Republicans in the House of Representatives funding this building bigger than the Pentagon.
Why? We don't need a national police force nor an FBI that needs a building bigger than the Pentagon.
But this is the plan. And you get to it, and you can look at every Democratic city that's struggling right now.
They're all struggling, and people are saying, why aren't the police coming to help us? You don't have any police.
It's not time for the Deus Ex Machina. It's not time for the feds to step in yet. But just keep coming. The commies are coming.
The commies are coming, and they're going to come with a solution.
But it's going to be a government solution, and you're not going to be happy about it.
Anyway...
Where is it? Obviously, when you did your podcast a while ago, then obviously I had watched some of the clips of you on with Jamie Glazov.
And I mean, how does, how do things look as, back in those days, there were issues, but it seems to have notched up such a degree.
And so kind of how do you see whenever you were commenting focused on the news, you haven't been for quite a while.
And these recent podcasts, you're back into observing what is happening.
And kind of how do you see it differently with the different issues that we that we now face?
Well, I'll tell you what, you know, you, well, if you, I mean, Jamie is on to everything.
I mean, Jamie Glazov, you mentioned, he's nailed it and he's continually continuing to nail it.
You sit back and you, I keep saying, I wish I had continued recording.
Because I used to record everything. But then when I stopped, because I had to go back to work, I had to make money, you know, you, you, you, but it's, it's, you see, I see better now than I ever have, how the communists, the Marxists, the globalists all together, all working together, how they did it, what was going on behind the scenes.
And even though Jamie saw it, I saw it, we didn't do anything about it.
We brought it to people's attention, but it was just a small, a small program, actually.
You know, it's important to recognize that they had a plan. You don't.
When I, here's a side-line.
When I was working with Andrew Breitbart, and who I loved, who got me to do things I would never have done in my life, right? And I was having a hamburger with him.
And I told him the story of first coming to California.
To audition for a TV series. And along the street, there are these vending machines with free newspapers or papers for $25, I mean, 25 cents.
And I went to the want ads.
This is the truth. I'm an audio fanatic, right? So I went to see if there was anybody, any audio equipment being sold.
And I just saw activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted. Never said what for?
Just activists wanted and I said to Andrew I said what the hell is this and he said well, of course, you know. They don't have to say what it's for because only libs are in the activist business, Conservatives are not looking at a centralized world. They want a decentralization of everything there.
They are by nature, not activists.
Activism is to achieve power.
It's to go out, assemble a group, get done what you want to have done, and then grow it.
So you need to advertise for people. And you only have to say activist, and you know precisely who you're going to get.
And they all want to be at the top of the pyramid, when in the truth is that most of them will end up at the bottom.
And then by the time they're ready to revolt, it's too late.
And so what these individuals did, these Marxists, socialists, globalists, instead of what they did in the 60s where they went after college students, they then said, no, no, we've got to get them younger. And they went for grade school, preschool.
And I'll say this, that the imams in France after 9-11, who said, we soon will own this country.
Our armies are growing around Paris right now. I think they got the hints there.
And Andrew McCarthy wrote a book called Grand Jihad, which was about how the socialists, Marxism, communists got along really well with the radical Islamists because their ideology was the same.
They found each other. One has a god at the head, the other the state.
Someday they won't be able to work together.
But their ultimate, the ultimate view of the world is totalitarian and they work really well.
And they did. They got the ideas to go after the children at the very early. They wanted to.
Communists always wanted to destroy the family. They tried.
And if you go back to, if you go back to some of the writings in 1920 in Russia, which was to become the Soviet Union, you will see it looks like it was written in the New York Times yesterday, talking about the family's not sufficient.
The husband's not sufficient. We need the state to take care of all of the children and mothers. It's just too much. It's just too much.
You are an oppressed minority because you're forced to bear children.
It's all of this stuff, and they knew what to do, and they have done it.
And it scares me that it's possibly too late.
I think it's never too late, actually. And I see panic in the works, especially in the United States. but they're doing the same thing in Europe.
You see it start there, you see it moved to Canada and then it comes here, but you do see revolt.
I think the important thing is to make people aware that this is going on, this is their intention, ultimate control.
And how people can, why people wanna be ruled by Klaus Schwab, it's so I just want to say slob, Schwab, why they want to be ruled by that Nazi, I don't understand, but they do.
They, they, you know, they, they think they are going to get something for nothing.
They actually hear those phrases and they think, oh, that's going to be wonderful.
I don't have to worry about anything.
I don't have to work. It's going to be given to me.
And I have had, I have actually had conversations with people who have said that.
And so those things work. I don't, it would never work with me.
It wouldn't work with my parents.
It wouldn't work with the people. It's not going to work with you, but they don't need it.
They only need a minority, a strong minority to say, yes, I want, I want, I want my life taken care of.
And it's I wish I had been more active, a greater activist.
And the death of Andrew Breitbart was a horrific...
Well, can I ask you that one? Ask you about that liberal destruction that we're seeing. But actually on how did you meet Andrew Breitbart? How did that happen?
Oh, that was pure serendipity.
I, I've always worn my conservatism on my sleeve. So which is why I'm on cocktail napkins. Don't hire him.
Oh, you're one of them. You're one of them. A lot of that, right?
And so I never saw it as a zero-sum game, but it made tough, you know, you are not, you're on the outs.
And so a friend of mine invited me to a, basically an organization called Friends of Abe.
It was modelled after Friends of Dorothy, you know, the conservatives, It was, you know, on the lam in the down low.
And there were these small gatherings of people who were conservatives, who were actors, who were having a rough time.
And I was at a small meeting and Andrew was at this particular meeting.
And the question was, well, what have you experienced in Hollywood, that you would consider, you know, a, you were prohibited from working. Let's put it that way.
And I told the story of a producer and I actually, I'm not going to mention his name here.
I'll tell you why, but, Andrew heard me tell this story, which was really as a young actor, it was pretty, pretty amazing.
He basically, I had come back from working with, Charlton Heston in a play in Los Angeles.
And I had wonderful conversations with Heston. I mean, just wonderful conversations.
And this producer at this theatre complex heard me, who was quite a big producer in Hollywood, right?
He heard me saying glowing things about Charlton Heston.
This was before Ronald Reagan won his election in the United States.
And he heard me, and he said, well, no Reagan asshole is ever going to work in my production.
And I went.
I mean, I, believe me, this this theatre group is a small theatre group.
I mean, I was I was not prepared for it.
And, you know, he laughed and he was waiting for for me to respond in kind, and I just didn't. Right.
And so Andrew heard me tell this story and he said, you've got to write this. You've got to write it.
You've got to put it in big Hollywood and you have to use your name.
And most of the actors, he said, most of the actors who write for me are using pseudonyms.
And I said, oh, my God, Andrew, I just don't, you know, no, you have to.
If you do, other actors, others in show business will see that you can use your name and you will encourage them to do the same thing.
It took me a while to, but I did it. I did it.
And in fact, I have to say, I lost a lot of friendship because not only did I write about this producer, but he was dead, and so you don't write about the dead, right?
But this was absolutely a true story, and there wasn't anybody who knew him who did not know that it was true.
But I lost a lot of friends doing it, but I also gained a lot of friends.
And there suddenly, and there's several, several well-known actors who started using their names on big Hollywood and they've done well, they've done very well.
And, it was, it was tough, you know, it was a tough thing to do.
But it was, but it's a little thing. I mean, think about it using your name to write and say something that's true.
But the atmosphere as Orson Bean, who was.
Andrew's father-in-law actually said that the atmosphere, in
Hollywood today was worse than it was during the blacklisting period for the communists.
He said, it's actually worse. Conservatives are being treated worse than the communists were.
It was. I mean, you are one of them, was a frequent retort, if you said something.
And you had to be very careful. You just I just lost a lot of friends.
And it always happened at the wrong time. There's never a right time.
But Andrew set me on the straight and narrow about this stuff.
He he truly was courageous.
And he, when I told him the story about the activists, you know, he said, you know, he just said, you have to understand that they, culturally, they are an amalgam.
They are powerful because of numbers and they recognize that.
We, on the other hand, don't want to do that. And we tend to just say, it'll be all right.
It's going to work out. They people can't be that stupid and then you look at this demented individual who's been elected president and people are. They, you know, they don't care and now you're hearing people.
Well, I'm not voting for the man I'm voting for the party.
This is the new one. I'm not voting for the man.
I'm voting for the party and read Edward Dmytryk odd man out.
[He was one of the Hollywood ten who realized what was happening and turned on the Communist Party and it's a great book.
It's a great book and you begin to see it is a tall order to take on that many people who literally do not care at the end if they have to kill somebody.
And you see them turning that on us.
You hear Donald Trump being called every name in the bloody book, and yet you are watching one of the greatest crimes I can think of in terms of what's happening in our legal system. It's just a disgrace.
And you're going to see a huge, I think.
Schism in our judiciary, because there are, I'm sorry to say, John Roberts, there are Trump judges, there are Obama judges, and there are Clinton judges, and they are not getting along well right now in the United States of America.
But Andrew was, he really understood culture. He really understood what was what, and he inspired a lot of people.
And he changed my life. He changed my life completely.
And I began to take special note of how the Marxists, the globalists, the communists work socially and on the bottom end.
And when I was working with Jamie, that was sort of the beginning.
I mean, I was, that was the beginning of things, but today I really see how they had, you always heard the communists had a five-year plan.
No, they had a 30-year plan. They had the long game.
Xi has the long game in mind. I mean, to come here while his economy is collapsing, and to get a standing ovation by corporate billionaires is quite an accomplishment.
And all of the lies he told, and what he's looking for.
They're bailing him out, our enemy.
I mean, Sequoia capital that Bannon talks about all the time, you know, they are bailing out our enemy whose military has said they are going to war with the United States and they're going to destroy us.
Fine, you know, Khrushchev said, you know, the capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.
We don't seem to learn. The difference this time is that we actually, they're actually in our government at the highest levels and there has to be a cleaning of the house, there really does and that scares them.
Completely. Can I pick up some you in the middle you're talking about liberals and that anger that activism that destruction which they're running down and I was think well is that because a lack of I mean Christianity has played such a part in U.S. history and U.K. history that we now seem to have that void where Christianity is not there, the church is not there.
It's always provided stability and an anchor and an understanding for life.
I wonder is it anger because a generation no longer has that certainty?
But then I was also thinking when you talked about conservatives not wanting to fight, possibly part of the problem is because many conservatives have a hold of Christianity and maybe they abdicate responsibility.
They say, well, God, this is yours, I don't have to do anything.
So I wonder is that a double-edged sword that we have?
Oh, listen, what you just said is so true.
It is so absolutely true.
And I, again, I remember when Barack Obama, before he was president.
A couple, I think it was two years before he was suddenly 2006, he said, he said, the United States is no longer a Christian nation.
At that time, 70% of the population identified as Christian.
So it was a lie, but it was a lie that he was, he wanted to create.
He wanted to push into reality.
And the removal of prayer, the removal, the attack on organized religion was beginning at that time.
And you could see Christians backing off.
Backing off. And, you know, well, you're too harsh.
It's why Judaism and why the Judeo-Christian ethic, well, they're so judgmental.
You know, we have the Ten Commandments. There's so many don'ts.
There's so many don'ts. And you're just not warm.
And what's the word they use?
Oh, inviting that you're just not inviting, you know, you push people away from, because you're, there are things that you have, you say are right and wrong.
They went right for the gut.
If you say there's right and you say there's wrong, then there's no relativity.
And we know that everything is relative. And, of course, I think 9-11, the attack on 9-11 and the, and
I do believe this, I don't think most Christians in the United States, not about the rest of the world, but in the United States, knew that there was Islam.
I don't think they knew that there was a Muslim world out there.
I don't. I don't I I don't think they you know, they're very typical.
They're going about their business and not aware.
Oh, they knocked down the World Trade Towers. Are they angry about something?
You know, oh quick. I think oh. Where's where though it happened here, is the other World Trade Center's in New York.
Oh my god You know, it's ah, this is true. I'm gonna tell you a story.
Boy, I'm blabbering, right? Listen, listen, listen to this story.
This is the last thing I did on camera.
It was a TV series about the CIA shot in L.A.
And I went into wardrobe, I'm not going to mention, I'm not going to mention who did this or whatever it is, but I went in and this is right after 9-11 and, I'm saying, my God, what an irony, here I am.
And I was already moving into the voiceover world because there was, it was far more interesting and more fun.
That's it then, than what was happening, but here I am doing this CIA, at the Veterans Administration Cemetery was the site.
And I was talking to an employee about 9-11, and what happened and my friends there in New York and how unbelievably incomprehensible it was.
This individual said, I don't have any connection with that.
I don't have any, I don't have any, you know, I don't have any connection with that, you know, everything will just go on.
I mean, literally, and I came home to my wife and I said, I was speechless, which for me, you can tell, I, I know how to talk, right.
I was speechless. I couldn't, I cried a little bit because it was, this was not said out of, it was sit out of an emptiness of mind.
The enormity of what occurred was and could have obviously I mean, the idea that there were only thirty five hundred people killed that day is just, it should have been thirty thousand thirty five forty thousand.
And here was somebody who had no connection with it. And I'm sure she was not, shouldn't have said that.
I'm sure that person, was not a bad person, just empty of the import that the world has changed.
This was a, this was a statement of war that was cultural and military.
And we are seeing it today and people are after the attack and I, if you, if you are a Christian and you don't understand that you are a target of what happened in Israel, you're fooling yourself. This is not going to stop.
It's not going to stop. And you are a target.
And one of the leaders of Hamas just said it.
They say it, and they do it, and they have permission to not kill.
You know, the Ten Commandments, it's thou shalt not murder.
But they have permission to murder.
It isn't. And you need to understand that you're on the list, and it's not wrong to say it.
And if you pretend that that's not the case, things are going to get much worse.
And I think that's something that we have to come to grips with today, that what's going on is, does not heed well for for the future unless action is taken.
So anyway, that was my story about 9-11.
And how do you push back? Because there's obviously when you were doing podcasts back whenever you started with Jamie, there was much.
And before that, I did them before, long before that, before Jamie, but go ahead.
But there were the voices on the scene, the information, the media was more trusted, there were much fewer alternative voices, fewer platforms to put out, just having podcasting platforms now and that wealth of reach that you can now have.
Is that a way of pushing it? Because I am not 100% hopeful in a political solution or a legal solution, and I'm wondering, is media a method of wakening up the public to providing that pushback or do people just shrug their shoulders and actually not really care?
Well, you see, the media is certainly part of the control.
They have been. I mean, Walter Cronkite, for instance, made no bones about it.
The CIA was involved, When it was just CBS, ABC, and NBC in the United States, the CIA was involved in each one of those networks.
They are and they have been in control. And once you say, oh, the government actually is in control of the news we get.
You then begin to see more clearly that activity underneath.
And till the point where we have reached today, where all of the news media are, you only hear the government point of view.
They have been exposed by Donald Trump.
He exposed them. Steve Bannon and War Room would not exist if it were not for the fact that most people who were on the conservative, who voted for Donald Trump, saw the government spend four years and three billion dollars overthrowing a president of the United States. They all came out of the closet.
And an alternative media has bloomed.
Hearts of Oak, War Room, which is an, which is basically international now through, and one knows, one is aware of, Klaus slobs, a constant harping on the fact that, you know, or we can remove the internet, you know, it can go down, it will go down to internet. The grid will go.
And the threats that are implied there, you know, It's fierce communication.
It's like you say, okay, this can happen. That threat is over your head.
That this new, all right, we are the alternative.
Here is an alternative voice to, and you now know that the government runs ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN for God's sake, you know, run.
And it was always that way, but not as exposed as it is today.
But the alternative media is absolutely essential.
And they're not at the point where they can pull the plug.
They're not at that point yet, because then the next step is mass murder.
And that's where it comes. It comes in the planning. Of course, they tried it with the vaccines.
You have to remember, you have to go back and remember that Davos, the World Economic Forum, had this video, I remember it, of the vaccine being given as your passport, your vaccine passport instead, you know, to everything. And it was a wonderful video.
We're killing you as we're giving you your, you know, it's a remarkable situation.
But, all of this stuff is right.
It's we, we have to find a second grid.
I mean, I think that's the only, the only way we're actually going to survive is to have a second grid.
And it was the very first thing that, our illustrious president did was when Donald Trump kicked the Chinese out of our electric grid.
And the first thing that that Biden did was invite them back in.
And I'm sorry, it's a catastrophe waiting to happen.
We don't need a sunspot to rain down on us.
We have 10, 20,000 Chinese men of military age in the country today.
And all of that you have to worry about, you know, and you shouldn't be worrying about that in this world, but the media is.
The propaganda, the Wall Street control of our minds, holy cow, it's a proven vessel.
And they took it and ran with it. They were exposed.
And now we have to undo it all.
I don't know. And what you just said, I don't know that that's possible. I don't.
But I hope it is. I pray it is. And I think with a lot of hard work, It can, we can save ourselves, we can.
But it's going to take a massive amount of energy, a mass, I love, you know, the getting rid of, I love the fact Xi leaves and the next day, we're getting rid of the stoves, we're getting rid of stoves, we're getting rid of gas, we're not gonna drill anymore, we're not, Xi, can you hear this?
We're doing what you said. You know, it's like, oh my God, oh my God, it's like, see, it's so sad, it's so incredibly sad and the Congress is going, well, I don't know, it's all going to collapse anyway.
I hope it happens soon. You know, I don't know.
And I also, I'm beginning to think and give credence to the fact that the vaccinations, have had a mental effect on people, it crosses the blood-brain barrier, and Naomi
Wolf had suggested that there would be irrational behaviour as a result of it.
And I thought, well, no, I think she was probably onto something.
Yeah, that does add up.
Final question, on you. In the podcast, it's spending 30, 40 minutes with you and your thoughts.
And you're just putting down what you think.
Don't be so harsh, please.
But from your I mean, from a film career, from I mean, from A-Team to Ben 10, I mean, it's diverse.
And then video games all mixed in with that. How much of yourself could you put in.
You obviously have to excel in acting, in your character, in your voice ability, but how much of yourself were you able or could you put in as an actor?
Well, I mean, that's why, you know, I listen to Jordan Peterson say, if you have anything to contribute, to what you see, this is the time to do it.
And it's now, that's it. And I watched what he has been through and others.
And what do I have to contribute? I'm an actor.
I used to walk around in New York saying, why the hell would anybody pay to see me or anybody? Why?
What is it? What is it?
Like with the Babylon Bee, if I can, through an absurdity, knock somebody on the head to say, oh my God, I never thought of that.
If I can just point out the absolute absurdity of people calling Donald Trump a totalitarian fascist Nazi, when that's what they have been doing.
And that is the Alinsky, the famous, you know, his famous statement, you accuse them of what you are doing and they're doing it every day and they get away with it.
If you can stop them from getting away with that by voting against them, you know, this whole thing of voting. And of course, I do believe they stole the election.
There's no question. And I saw a headline in the paper today about in Arizona, this county in Arizona with 100,000, they couldn't count the ballots.
It was they were on the third day and they had made 46 errors.
And there was this other.
And I thought to myself, Argentina just had an election and 30 million people and all of the votes were counted in one night.
Right, but this little county in Arizona and here's a headline, right?
And what is this? This headline is telling you, oh, these people who want paper ballots, it's just not gonna happen. It's too hard.
It's too hard to count. Try it.
Look, how old are you? Shake your fingers, you're not nimble, the papers fall and you have to bend over and it hurts your back.
And look, I found another ballot.
And there's always another ballot that you're going to find in the paper bank.
So, no, no, let's keep the machines and let's keep it electronic, okay? I mean, it's this kind of thing.
And you begin to realize, as an actor, I can perhaps, if I'm lucky, once or twice...
Click somebody on the head and say okay this is, this is potential this this this I'm not going, (Barking) it's my dog she knows it's about time to stop, oh Ziva stop it.
Has Ziva been on your podcast yet
No, no she hasn't, no she hasn't.
There's a thought
Well you see the podcast, that's why another reason and I wanted to stitch it together.
The podcast is 15 minutes takes an entire day.
And then I stitch it together, and it's all done. If you have a golden period like this, there's always the potential that the canine who runs the family.
Her name is Ziva. Ziva was a character on NCIS, and she left the show.
One of our favourite characters. So we had to keep her around.
Yes. Israeli character, I remember.
Yes. Yes. Very, very, very our favourite.
But but and the dog is a great German shepherd. Just a great, great dog.
But and she does respond to my admonitions because I feed her.
It's a good communist household technique. No food.
No. But yes, it's you know, it's what I can do. That's it.
And Jordan Peterson, I truly do appreciate what he's been through in Canada.
And he's so articulate. Oh my God, he articulates.
Like he was like Andrew, Andrew Breitbart was articulate.
Bannon is articulate. There are so many people who have come out of the woodwork, to, I would not, you, I would not know who you were if it were not for Steve Bannon.
You can blame him right.
Well, no, no, no. It's amazing because you're across the pond and you see the world. Who was it?
Antonin Scalia spoke at a friend of Abe event, and he said, gather with people of like minds because he discovered in the judiciary, it was, you would be an out, you became an outcast.
So he said, don't be an outcast.
Gather with like minds there are people who think like you particularly if you see the world correctly, but the more people who say yes that is what I se. It is invasion of the body snatchers, it really is people have been hijacked.
Money, sex, when the joke about Epstein not killing himself is not a joke you discover that.
And as you know, I said to you, I believe in the Oscar Wilde comment, everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.
And power is in everything to some degree.
And they have found a way. You don't belong in the club if you can't be blackmailed.
That's the entrance fee is blackmail. You are part of it.
Then you get all of the benefits. but remember to toe the line.
People who don't do that.
The Jordan Petersons of the world who up front say, not me, I see the world the way he does.
And the idea that Christianity is being attacked and destroyed from every angle, tells me something about the people who are doing it.
It doesn't tell me anything about Christianity except that it's a threat.
And I go back to what Thomas Jefferson said that if, and anybody can take this, whether you're Christian or not, if Christianity, if there was no Christianity, it would have to be invented.
Well, it is real, and it is there, and they're attempting to destroy it.
Why? You ask the question why, and you'll change your mind about the world.
And look at the people who want to destroy it and how they want to destroy it, in little increments.
It is the crocodile, it's Winston Churchill said it, you know, the crocodile, you're hoping that the crocodile will eat you last, and the crocodile is real.
But Christianity is there, it was, and I do believe. Some of the most thoughtful Jews like Dennis Prager, rabbis, that I have listened to and I have spent some time talking to them, It is, there are things that are a force for good are recognized by everybody and things that are a force for evil are also recognized, hang around people who recognize both.
And Jordan Peterson, I tip my hat to you and to you, Peter, and to Bannon and to everybody.
That has been an inspiration to me.
I don't think I could get around. I mean, it's hard sometimes listening to the truth. You know it. I know it.
And I know a lot of people who cannot listen to it. And really, I mean, seriously, they're affected in a way.
I can't. I can't do it. I can't. I just can't listen to that. I can't read that.
I don't want to know that.
Well, you have to know it because it will affect your life.
Dwight, it's wonderful to have you on. I think speaking with you, getting to know you is the top of my surreal list of the last four years watching when you're, I don't know if I was seven or eight, I think, A-Team.
I don't know if it was for, seven or eight-year-olds.
Yeah, it was it was it was a comic book with heroes, you know, and the heroes happened to be Vietnam veterans and that was the the Tribute to Steven J.
Cannell and he was attacked for it There you go.
I don't know if you want a crazy helicopter pilot, but anyway, that's that's a whole that's a whole other, Dwight, thank you so much for coming on.
It's been wonderful having you on the podcast and there's the the link again on the screen.
And maybe we'll have you back for another video interview sometime in the near future. Who knows?
And, you know, if I can, any time, you know, I'm I'm a I'm a blabbermouth.
You know, I'm I'm a mugger. I am.
You know, I admit what I am. I'm not a great, listen. I always knew I wasn't going to be a movie star.
I always knew it because I couldn't ride a horse.
Movie stars can, they get on a horse for the first time.
And I got on a horse and the horse turned around and went the opposite direction.
It's true. It's true. In fact, there was a horse riding scene in a movie I did called Fat Man and Little Boy, and I'm riding on it.
And it was a galloping scene, and it never made it into the movie.
And I'm coming into the scene, and I went flying off the horse onto the ground.
That was me. No movie star here. None. I knew it. I accept my fate.
Thank you Pete.
Well Dwight, it's so good to have you on. Thanks so much for your time.
