Transcription

Chapter 1: What is farm life like for Brett Cooper?

0.098 - 3.504 Matt Walsh

Brett Cooper, how's life out on the farm?

0

5.127 - 12.28 Brett Cooper

It's going well. I just watched one of my escaped pigs run by the window actually before we logged on. So it's always exciting.

0

14.104 - 18.411 Matt Walsh

Are you going to go get the pig or do you have someone to be the pig wrangler? Who wrangles the pigs?

19.555 - 44.618 Brett Cooper

I do. Alex does. But this particular pig, her name is Patsy. We have tried everything. We have repaired fences a myriad of times. We have a hot wire. We've tried different different brands of hot wire. She is seemingly immune to all of it. And so we've just stopped caring. So she's now just a neighborhood pig. And so she just runs around and at night she puts herself to sleep. So.

45.34 - 53.427 Brett Cooper

That's just patsy for you. Alex is convinced that now she's bacon. She needs to be bacon. But now I have like a fondness in my heart for her. But yeah, she just runs around.

55.329 - 57.911 Matt Walsh

Is that the plan to eat the pigs eventually, I would assume?

59.012 - 68.581 Brett Cooper

Yes. Yeah. Well, we already have. We've processed three already and then we bred more. So if you want any pork, we're just going to be giving it to family and friends. So I'll ship some out to you.

70.462 - 73.305 Matt Walsh

I would appreciate it. Well, how many animals do you have now?

Chapter 2: How does Brett Cooper manage her escape artist pig?

148.905 - 164.549 Brett Cooper

Like in the animal kingdom, there's just a lot of dominance. And so chickens, like the rooster will be on top of a chicken. Ducks will be like fighting over one of these like female ducks and the geese have none of it. They are like anti all of it. They stick their heads down, they put their necks out, and they just squawk at all of them. They break up every single fight.

165.109 - 172.119 Brett Cooper

They stop all of the promiscuous activity, and then they're also a great predator deterrent. So that's why we have them, and they're just funny to look at.

0

173.842 - 178.188 Matt Walsh

So they're like the grumpy Puritans of the bird kingdom.

0

178.909 - 184.617 Brett Cooper

They're you. They're you. You actually might identify with an African goose.

0

186.48 - 211.257 Matt Walsh

Maybe I do. Because, you know, I do... I have been pretty upset at you for a while for being such a, as you know, for being such a bad influence on my wife and encouraging her and her delusions of being a farmer, her delusions of agriculture, as I have come to call it. And a lot of that goes to you. So I was hoping you would tell me that... The farm is a total disaster. You hate all of it.

211.317 - 220.227 Matt Walsh

You regret ever doing it. And then I could triumphantly show that to my wife. Unfortunately, you sound happy, which is not what I wanted to hear.

220.267 - 223.15 Brett Cooper

Do you still have your goats? I haven't checked in on her lately on the goats.

225.232 - 245.646 Matt Walsh

Yeah, we have two goats. That's it. They don't do anything. They don't do anything. They're just there. They're cute. They're not even, no, they're not. They smell, they're ugly, they look satanic. Like goats are a symbol of Satanism, okay? They have these weird slit eyes that look with the pupils and they don't do anything.

245.867 - 268.132 Matt Walsh

So, you know, I was out yesterday, the water is freezing where the goats are. And so I got to go out and like break, my wife has, well, can you go break up the ice in the water thing so that, so they can get to the water. It's like, okay, so I'm out there, it's cold, it's dark, it's snowing. why am I doing this? What are you, what are you doing for me? It was my question to the goats.

Chapter 3: How does Brett Cooper feel about her recent fashion show experience?

987.335 - 1003.462 Brett Cooper

You're now saying, oh, no, I am Chinese. And it's so ironic because we just got, you know, we spent 2020 where people were screaming about cultural appropriation and you can't have braids in your hair because then you hate Black people, whatever it is. And now on social media, through this little, like, subgenre, people are saying, I was just diagnosed as Chinese. I'm so Chinese.

0

1003.482 - 1026.473 Brett Cooper

I'm, like, at a Chinese moment in my life right now. And people are wearing Chinese outfits. They are posting TikToks using Chinese sounds and songs. They are doing like funny impressions where it'll be like girls and they're wearing socks and they have little like Chinese man slides and they're walking around. And it's just this whole little bubble on TikTok.

1026.453 - 1041.932 Brett Cooper

And I have one other friend that also found herself on this weird side of TikTok and nobody else knows what we're talking about, but it's huge. These videos have hundreds of thousands of likes and comments. So it's not like a super niche thing, but in the grand scheme of the internet, it is. So that's just one example of it, I guess.

1043.975 - 1049.482 Matt Walsh

Are they, do they do the eyes? Do they go all, do they go all the way to do the eyes too? Or is that, is that out of?

0

1049.682 - 1056.19 Brett Cooper

No, I should try that. I should try it and make a video and see if that's like taking it a step too far. If it's not fun anymore after that.

1056.828 - 1073.028 Matt Walsh

Lent has already begun, but it's not too late to join my friends at Ascension Press for the Crux Lenten Challenge, a daily program that teaches you how to surrender your life to God. Go deeper than giving up sweets or screen time and approach this Lent with the goal of lasting spiritual change.

1073.348 - 1093.194 Matt Walsh

Each day, Crux participants take on four challenges inspired by the cross of Christ, daily scripture reading, a nightly examen, one physical exercise of your choice and one dietary fast of your choice. But don't worry, Crux isn't about extreme penance or white-knuckled self-improvement. It's about encountering your weakness honestly and discovering the God who meets you there.

1093.394 - 1113.403 Matt Walsh

And you don't do this alone. Each day, Father Columba Jordan shares short video reflections in the Ascension app to encourage you, guide you when you struggle, and help you recognize where God is inviting you to surrender. And there's more good news. Even though Lent has already started, you can still join Crocs with 90 days of premium access to the Ascension app for just $4.99.

1113.704 - 1125.985 Matt Walsh
