A couple items of interest came up, and we're not going to hire you after all.

So thanks, but no thanks.

This is our final decision.

We're not going to talk to you about this at all.

Good luck to you.

So, I did some talking around and I wondered, obviously, why did they invite me to this audition if they had no intent of hiring me in the first place?

They looked at my resume.

My story is out there.

If they looked into what happened...

in the Nashville Symphony.

Why didn't they give me a probationary year or ask me my side of the story?

It's because these orchestras are all so possessed by this diversity agenda that they cannot entertain the idea of any right-wing players showing up.

They think it's dangerous.

They think it's bad publicity.

That's how committed they are.

It's psychotic.

And so my suit alleges that they owe me compensation

Well, you're right, Dr. Drew.

I'm an ambassador for music and meritocracy.

That's what's really under attack here is this most meritocratic process of all, the blind audition.
