I think what you're seeing is now we're we're figuring out if it's really just about telling a great story.
And if you do that, then your worldview will shine through organically on its own.
As opposed to as opposed to trying to check boxes and shoehorn in ideas and what you're seeing.
And that's why a lot of conservative and faith based filmmaking was cheesy and failed for so many years.
What you're seeing now, Clay, is on the other side, they're the ones doing it.
They're the ones saying now that we don't have to tell a good story anymore.
We have to check boxes.
We have to make sure that all of our tropes are included, that all of our representatives in all of our various tribes feel like they had agency.
And, you know, that's, I think, one of the things that we set out to do when we made Nefarious was just to make the best –
thriller kind of based off those nineties thrillers like fallen uh... you know like silence of the lambs like seven with the budget we had to kind of make our best version of that and it just so happen to contain our world view because as filmmakers that's our belief system but it wasn't like we were just sitting around in a writer's room let's drop that line to it wasn't like that and so we're actually in the process right now of raising money for the next movie we're going to do uh... that maybe maybe even darker than the first film was
And I have to tell you that our people need to understand that we're behind in pop culture because the other side, until now, well, they still are.
They're willing to lose money for their message.
And I think that our people have got to determine and understand that the amount of hearts and minds you can reach with good storytelling nowadays is huge.
And it's the last place left, guys, where I think people will let you come at their worldview if you entertain them and just tell them a good story that they won't do in any other venue where so many minds are made up.
And I think this is kind of the undiscovered country for the American right is to realize that for the bang for your buck and a relatively good chance at an ROI, you can do way more culture shaping and shifting in the storytelling arena than you even can directly in politics now.
Well, first of all, hat tip to your co-host there, Clay.
I thought he had a great observation yesterday.
I saw on the same day that ESPN Let's Go, which Chief Ray Spader and Ryan Clark, they published this interview with Sophie Cunningham drawing a clear line between insanity and sanity.
I think the most, so that's a great observation there.
I think the most important thing actually that Sophie Cunningham said is when she said, I said what I said and I stand by it in response.
