That we are we should be live there we are Hello friends and brothers welcome to Masonic Improvement I’m Dennis Yates and uh the co-hostess of the mostest I said Hostess and and I am Justin Jones Justin Jones Andy Welcome to our live stream hello hello welcome hello oh I needed to
Uh I needed to update something very important real quick uh-oh oh it’s all good I just need to uh well at the uh Commander you go ahead and do your thing at the commandery practice this afternoon one of the brothers said oh I forgot to buy my
Ticket where where do I go to do it I said okay I’ll send you the link so we sold another one today that’s great yeah that’s four and four in the last uh three days four days four and four I like that the more let’s keep it going listeners let’s
Keep it going absolutely okay this is my new favorite picture I just thought I’d put it up today oh my God me me and my and my new best friend I mean we we met we we crossed Paths of Temple and we just immediately just just
Connected yeah so yep I’ll leave it well that’s okay because neither one of yours has photogenic as I am that’s good that y’all are together and I’ll leave it up until he sees it oh we got quite a few already we got oh here’s Jason now hello my new background
Together at Lens together forever we got uh Jean’s uh Gene is here uh Oscar Cordova’s here Devin McLean Jason Rottenberg David Lawson hello hello Brothers glad to have y’all glad to have y’all so what what do you want to touch on before uh unless they’ve already thrown up some questions
Why are you why do you have a man crush on Jason reichenberg why do you have why did you blow up his photo and put it on your wall Jason and I are united in uh uh how much we uh don’t like being interrupted and I don’t know I don’t know how that
Brought us together so much but uh were you United or United in our fondness for giving Dennis a hard time that’s a better I I totally understand you know everybody wants to hate those they that they you know are envious of so um well I’ll talk a little bit so
Speaking of speaking of all this going on behind me uh I went to Temple to Knob Creek on Saturday and I got the I I joined The Grotto I I joined Del Texas Grotto and they did the full degree which is like like a seven part ceremony or degree or whatever it’s it’s
More like a complete really but it’s the first time and I think they said like 20 years it was done in Texas and it’s pretty cool uh nice I will go into detail obviously um I don’t know when they plan on doing it again if ever but it’s it’s it’s
Definitely worth going to if you’re ever if I mean if you’re in Grotto or if you’re ever thinking about going to Grotto either way it’s worth seeing uh I I talk to people that were there that had been in Grotto for for quite a while and they had never seen it
So they were they were pretty much just kind of you know well that’s like that’s like a lot of a lot of AMD members you know they every one of the AMD councils has their own degree that they’re associated with and very not very many of them actually perform their own degree on
Their brothers they uh they just give them a Hail Mary and and then tell them to go to a d day in Waco so they can see the degree happen by somebody else yeah you know it’s unfortunate kind of punting it off it is
It is that’s why I’m so proud of our AMD Council because we uh we perform the degree on every one of the the initiates that we have that’s good it’s really good uh let’s see uh Oscar wants to know what tonight’s topic is uh TBA man TBA let’s see um
Justin and Justin here she is here hello brother TBA to be announced Dennis try to right try to keep up I figured that’s what it was I figured you had to change the thing so that it would be oh Millennials I’ll I’ll slow down it could be in the millennial Gap
Is that more your uh just rocket burst is awesome he’s never seen the full Grotto ceremony well you should have got there earlier man because I know right it was cool and I didn’t have to be the the stunt double for this so it was even cooler
Because I didn’t have to feel stupid at any point so I really enjoyed it uh Justin hiroshida says he’s still trying to figure out what no cat means yeah for real what that’s no cap you heard that no cat that’s busting trying too hard bro you never heard anything oh I’m too old
Uh apparently you got to keep up if you all stay relevant man I gave up I gave up when they started using eggplants on emojis okay you know yeah okay all right I won’t go into that yeah yeah I know it’s an eggplant but that’s not what it’s supposed to be
We’ll just leave it at that and if you would stop singing that was to me I would appreciate it [Laughter] that’s funny nothing wrong no there’s nothing wrong being a boomer I know I’m just giving Dennis I don’t really know where he falls in if he falls in with
The boomerogenex I’m Gen X are you though I am I am hardcore Genex yep yeah that’s probably that’s probably why I’ve got this [ __ ] attitude that I have and I I tend to ruffle a lot of feathers because I’m of that generation man it was all about you know
Don’t need nothing but a good time and somebody cramping your style you just you know cramping your style yeah you just kind of give him the bird and move on who talks like that’s capio no one talks like that oh my gosh I’d like to see you do that at your school
When you’re teaching the kids yeah it could probably all throw their books at you all at one time and just kind of vomiting yeah it’s never pretty what is that is that moonshine in your hand or what this is water dude it’s a it’s high quality H2O
This actually was came from a uh Himalayan glacier at the uh at the very Summit at Mount Everest and it was it was blessed by Inuit shaman so it is uh it is the purest coldest and most refreshing water uh ever Dennis is the heavy metal generation
Dennis no okay that’s exactly right I read with Dennis the other day and he was listening to Nickelback so no he’s he’s nothing I mean he’ll sing in it too look at his food yeah and after all the others do every one of them and every other all
The other songs were seven every one of them it was Taylor Swift and he puts on Taylor Swift so no I did not turned on Jason okay okay yeah high quality yeah exactly yeah and my team so what do you want to talk about Dennis um well you kind of touched on something
That’s that’s a pretty interesting topic and it really does I know you get too touchy what’s up but it but this topic really does kind of uh fall right into the benefits of Freemasonry and you know you said that you and you and Jason were connected through me right
Both of you having a love-hate relationship with me y’all were y’all y’all have now become one and become but besties so here’s my thought though you and I are connected through Jason my son can do that he goes I can’t do it anyways so when when you said that it started
Getting me to thinking about it and you know Freemasonry is one of the coolest fraternities in the world for one very reason because you can travel anywhere around the world and find a brother and you’ve always got that and you know we we tend to have our Circles of
Friends that we that we really do spend a lot of time with and we we um we we talk our deepest thoughts and philosophy and even politics and religion because we know that we love each other we’re going to walk away loving each other and we have those debates and we we really
Hash it out and nobody gets offended when you raise your voice because you want to make that point and you’re so excited about your stance you know that is so cool having those circles but then each one of those people in that Circle is also a member of another Circle
And then another Circle and then another Circle so really you’ve heard of the six points of connection right yes yeah to where if you if you really want to get in touch with somebody there’s usually six people that you can go through you just gotta know who the
Right people are but there’s usually six people that you can go through in your database in your knowledge base in your friends in your friend list um it starts with one and then he goes to one of his friends and then he goes to one of his friends and you can touch
That person right it’s the same way with Freemasons it really is and that’s one of the coolest benefits of a Freemasonry is being able to travel and and find those brothers and find those like-minded people yeah and a a great way to put yourself in personal contact with like Masonic leadership and
Like-minded people would be uh to going to places where you know they’re going to be at right uh say for example the Masonic Improvement Summit coming up September on the 16th in Corpus Christi that’s a great place it’s a great place so there’s going to be some great
Connections there I’m telling you so then you could be the contact people have to go to say hey do you know do you know Chris Williams like I I happen to know Chris Williams I can put you in contact with him thank you then everybody will start stop
Calling me and asking me for all that I just kidding just kidding but really we do get our fair share of that because we know so many people that if somebody wants to know something if if something odd happens within the fraternity I guarantee you I get at least 10 15 calls
Or texts ask me okay so what happened yeah because just because out of relation you know we we really get the get the uh gravity of any situation that happens within our grand jurisdiction it is really kind of funny like once you start traveling especially when you start associating with other people that
Travel a lot um so like uh Jace is a great example I went the temple for that for that Grotto stuff and a bump at the Jason right I went to um Waco Lodge a few days ago last Thursday and I run into Matt Fletcher Austin
Who uh oh Boston’s here or not I read I ran into Austin uh Adam Olivier was there so um and I didn’t know I didn’t know I was gonna run into any of those guys they just we just all covered at the same time and so it’s kind of funny once you
Start traveling at first I don’t really know anybody right but then the more you do it you bump into people you know in like the most random places it’s it’s I mean it’s pretty cool right right I agree so this is so now that Justin and I are
Connected can we cut the dentist I need some rest yeah he just wants me no rest for the wiki he just wants to be too uh he wants you to take me out of his hands basically yeah that’s funny but yeah you’re you’re right and and it’s those
It’s those shared moments that make you closer yeah you know there’s been a lot of times that over the past few years that people have come up to me you know and and said hey man I listened to the podcast all the time we’ve talked on on
Facebook quite a bit and I’m so glad to meet you and then after that we tend to see each other in these other functions as well and now we’ve got that friendship and then and we and we talk and Converse a little more in each one
Of these and we grow we grow a bond because of the shared moments in Freemasons you know that’s that’s awesome I love it yeah yeah so uh I have a I have a and just a fair warning to everybody this probably is gonna be like a two-hour conversation
Like like it was on Wednesday um but uh I do want to uh just I’ll ask you did I said if anyone that’s listening of course as always if you have thoughts please share them but Dennis do you feel as though Freemasonry is living up to its uh Highest Potential right now
No however there’s an asterisk on this I I say absolutely not absolutely not however we’re starting to get the gist of what we need to be doing and we’re starting to see a Renaissance um well it’s been going on but it’s really starting to take shape now
Because all the all the brothers who truly care about the same things are starting to decide hey you know what it’s okay that I have a voice yeah it it’s okay that I say something and want this in my Lodge and expect this from my Lodge
I I do see the the Renaissance right like we we’ve touched on it before it’s undeniable yeah we’ve touched on it before but it’s not smooth selling right you still have lots of lodges that are that are struggling and they may be struggling to go in the right direction they may see
The the lighthouse right they they see the light at the end of the tunnel and they’re trying to let’s go to the lighthouse analogy because they’re trying to steer their shift that way but they’re having a lot of difficulty what do you think is is holding them back
From getting on point to where they need to be denial no um I I think you know something that that someone said here recently to me um well no let’s let’s not go there um go ahead and say what you what you want to say and all because I know you’ve got
An answer to your own question but I I want to formulate mine a little bit better The Lodges that are trying to go in the right direction they it’s the members that see where they need to go they see that where the lodge needs to go right they can see
What it needs to be to uh to survive this basically like like a purge we’re kind of putting ourselves through right and and they understand like you have to be your Lodge has to be that rock that the waves crash against and just stands there right like it’s it’s immovable but
You have to have certain things in place so it’s the it’s the members that are doing that that are that are trying going by the ship analogy there they see the lighthouse they know where they need to go and they’re they’re trying to steer that ship the right way um but they can’t
Because just like you have the members that are trying to correct the course you also have the members that are dead set on staying on the course they’re on right that makes sense so I agree like it’s not Richie it’s full and I have another theory also okay what
I’ll permit it um okay thank you did you see the little hand come up no I didn’t on my screen I uh be there I was all I had to do was raise my hand on a computer saw that I was raising my hand oh see I I watched
Isn’t that cool I’ll watch this on YouTube yeah there’s a delay on the video but I’ll watch the Youtube because I like to see the chat as it comes in so I didn’t see I didn’t see what you’re doing oh my gosh okay so anyways back to topic um
I truly believe that even our Mentor generation members the older generation um I truly believe that they see the necessity for a change right that they that they believe as well that some things have to be done in order to fix our current situation however I think the problem is is that
They have in their mind well this didn’t work last time this didn’t work last time this didn’t work last time well some of those last times may have been 50 years ago and and this is a whole different generation with the right people to make it happen at their fingertips and they
Don’t realize that it’s like they’re already self it’s their it’s the self-defeated mentality right and so with that it’s hard to gain momentum to do what you want to do because they they already felt feel like they tried it and it failed even though now they’re equipped with all these people excited
To to make it work whereas before they probably had just one or two people interested and and got nowhere with it right I think that’s one of the possibilities right here is that there are people that want to even with the mentor generation but they just don’t know what to do yeah
And especially since we have no vision on you know a common vision on what we’re supposed to do just like the the poll I did with the philanthropy and fellowship and uh and ritual or education you know pick four yeah and the everybody stops choosing the ones
That were up on the up on the thing pick one of them everybody stopped doing that and just started writing all kinds of stuff down underneath and not actually doing the poll yeah the whole idea is just to see what the priorities were in Texas you know not I don’t I don’t
Really care you know why you think all the things that you think I just want to know which one you think is the most important for us going forward because I believe all of them are but I want to see what Texas thinks is the most important I think
That poll was a weird Flex Dennis that’s how you know I’m genetics because I just did Duran Duran so uh we got we got quite a few comments let’s just catch up on them let’s do it uh Justin hiroshida says should something like a charter being arrested be information
Readily available to all Masons no and I’ll tell you why unless you want to answer it I want to hear your your reasoning because the charter being arrested does not mean that it’s pulled for good it’s not permanent what what that means is that it gets arrested they take it to where
It stops you from doing business at that point in time so that they can audit your minutes audit your you know they may audit your money but probably not because the Grand Lodge doesn’t need your money and they’re not going to just tell people to close down because they
Have money that’s just ridiculous thinking so they’re gonna do an audit of minutes and the thing the called meetings the all the regular meetings call meetings and everything and they’re gonna see they’re going to get the big picture of what’s going on before they make a a
Full decision on putting it in front of the West to to uh to uh keep the chart I think I don’t think anybody else should really I think transparency is important and and here’s here’s well I you just said that I know but I think it I think I’m
Not gonna let you talk because I know you’re wrong you’re wrong but but here’s why if granted at Grand Lodge like you’re saying it will get presented like the justification will be presented however from from a large perspective you need to know what your what you’re up against
You need to know what the charges are so that you can uh be prepared to defend you if the lodge gets their Charter pool they don’t know but it doesn’t need to go out to all of Texas well I don’t know after doing something if if we’re talking totally hypothetically of
Course but if a lodge was doing something that um I mean granted it’s probably I I think it would save other law just trouble if they say okay these these these guys are really serious about this we need to be sure that we are we are or are not doing
Whatever well and and that’s the thing is that it’ll come out in the wash at the end and everybody will know what it was but you’re in the investigation period it’s just like when somebody files charge it’s not it’s not thrown out to the public the that’s done very privately and
There’s investigations done internal investigations by uh usually your your ddgms at large are involved with it as well as other people in the um in Grand Lodge and there’s usually uh people assigned to to uh oversee everything going on in that in that situation so yeah it’s the same thing with the lodge
It’s just like having a charter pool is just like having Sonic charges against you you’re not totally guilty you’re just gonna be halted from doing what you’re doing I don’t think until they figure out I don’t think anyone suggested they’re guilty the the question was just about the information really
Better I mean we’ve right we gave our thoughts and clearly I’m right but that’s why it’s private yeah that’s that’s why it’s private yeah and Devin McLean says and so these topics I think are going back to what we were talking about originally uh Deb McLean says it’s
Definitely so we were talking about um um the membership and and are we on track and stuff like that uh Deb McLean says it’s definitely transforming for the better I think a Renaissance is a good word of course it’ll take time uh David Lawson says the problem though is where Freemasonry or
The lodge needs to go is subjective some think it’s okay where we are and those who want to change and there are those who want to change to progress I mean I don’t disagree but I will say this I’ll say this any organization and it doesn’t matter what level organization what type of
Organization is as soon as you are complacent and you think you’re okay where you are that’s when your organization starts to decline if that makes sense uh right we as lodges and I don’t I don’t care if you’re talking about rotary free masonry Lions Club city council whatever you’re always trying to improve
Uh your organization always always trying to climb higher because once you stop and you rest on your laurels you look back and and you’re you’re back where you started so I get what you’re saying I don’t disagree but I uh go ahead I’ll just go read the next comments
Oh well I wanted to I wanted to speak on that real quick um there was a time when I would I would say that was a big obstacle in your Lodge but after talking with a lot of people about these things and not just having my own opinions but
Actually listening to other people’s opinions um let’s say let’s say there’s several of you that think that education is the way you need to go forward in your Lodge right well just start it with those two people have a book club and start reading uh the secret
Teachings of all ages as for instance and do chapter by chapter and everybody read it come together discuss it try to figure out what the true means were in in the pages and uh go from there and see how that grows internally and before long if people really start seeing the
Value in it that that nucleus is going to expand to a point to where you’ll have enough people um that you can actually vote it into an actual Lodge um event that happens every month that’s a scheduled event for the lodge as a lodge project and not just a few guys that’s
That’s kind of how it has to happen in a lot of lodges because like I said before a lot of these older brothers they’ve seen similar things happen and fail and so they’re not as receptive as as they might be if they had never seen it
At all if that makes sense yeah so sometimes you have to just start small within your Lodge and with a few people we do this project on the side and just let it grow get build excitement yeah I agree um so Devin McLean says uh Freemasonry needs more tech savvy people
He’s tired of seeing people who could barely send an email because when someone wants to join it tends up taking too much to even get a reply yeah we have a we have a new Mason he’s not new anymore but I mean but two year through
Your Mason now but when he joined our lodge uh he lived like an hour away but he joined us because of because he reached out to like I don’t remember how many lodges he said he reached out to but it was it was a lot I want to say like 20. and he
Reached out to all of them and he joined our lodge because we’re the one that got back to him in fact uh one large reached out to him like three months after he joined ours he’s like it’s too late most of them still haven’t replied
Last time I talked to him which was like I don’t know six months ago about that so as of then like two and a half years he still hasn’t heard back from a lot of those lodges so I agree and also I mean that’s that’s kind of why we put out the
Videos we do and that’s also why we always encourage people to to find like track down that Lodge uh so if you say okay uh Hillsboro Lodge or Goliad Lodge Google it where is it at when do they meet and and go to them and introduce yourself because if you wait on email
It’s it’s not always going to work so that’s why we always encourage people plus Freemasonry is all about taking that first step right so I mean it’s good that if you want to send an email but the most the most uh reliable way I think to get in contact with the lodge
Is to show up on their doorstep when you know they are there and introduce yourself well I’d like to speak on that as well and not not to that I want to I want to speak about uh the technology situation if we would force our lodges our
Secretaries to have a large email and stop using their own damn email then you would eliminate a lot of that problem because they would have to check the lodge email regularly to conduct large business and then they would see those emails coming in and then worshipful master can assign a let’s say
A three-man committee for called the membership committee and then that that secretary can then forward that email to the chairman of that committee and then they can reach out and do all the work to to figure out who this person is and if they really
Want them to come to the lodge or not because that’s the best way you can bet somebody in my opinion is when they come in on email you start asking the asking questions immediately you don’t you don’t wait until they come to the lodge because you don’t want some
Nut job coming to your Lodge and you know just finding out where you are just so they can come and do bad things so that’s a perfect way to vet people but you have a system in place and it starts with having a lodge in it and not
Personal emails doing large business yep period period period the end uh let’s see uh Gene says there’s always room to improve yeah always yes there always is I don’t I don’t care if you’re the nicest Lodge in Texas right there’s always something there’s always something you can prove it may be a
Small little building improvements it may be just the way you do your degrees Jason brockenberg I sure will just reckenberg says uh his plan how sweet my daughter is no I wasn’t looking because I’m looking at you my daughter my daughter my daughter’s a darling I didn’t have to go
Like this get ow I didn’t have to do that I’m sorry you don’t know how to be assertive geez [Laughter] yeah but uh I know I’m just a pushover uh go ahead all right Jason reichenberg yeah I mean it’s pretty it’s pretty important what he has to say you’re just
Interrupting this I mean gosh but he says his plan for his year his virtual Masters to have an esoteric presentation at each meeting but also to have four education nights where they have a quick meeting and then a presentation afterwards and discussion I love that man nice really good yep
That’s a good idea and I think that’s the way it should be anyway is having your education on a different night than the stated meeting because it really doesn’t fit in and and I don’t mind and I love going to lodges and doing it during their stated meeting but
You really don’t have any time to really discuss when you’re presenting at a lodge all it is is it’s basically you trying to get your point across and hopefully they absorbed enough that it’ll click in a couple of days I also think there’s a lot of value just speaking from personal experience
To um and this is granted we do this in your crap but it could easily apply to like the blue Lodge so twice a year usually around Christmas and then like towards the end of the Masonic year like around like around election times uh going out to a nice restaurant as a
Lodge with your families having a mill somewhere outside the Masonic environment and have an education like have a guest speaker and then if it’s like at the end of masonic year go do some presentations while you’re at it you can do the gold trowel or or whatever whatever relevant
Presentations that you can do community Builder something like that and um just just there’s there’s a lot of value to to doing things um out in the community uh just just to just to get together and uh I mean it’s worth it’s worked a
Lot of good and the groups that I do it in and that I’ve seen it done in so I’ll just put that out there plus your community sees you guys out there together having fun right um so they know you’re an active thriving organization David Lawson says uh let’s see oh wait
Let me go David Lawson says he agrees um I don’t remember what he when that popped up but he he creates a something we said 100 probably something I said no I think it’s what I said about the emails no I don’t think so that I said let’s see David McLean David
McLean says it’s sad okay he’s talking about uh okay he’s talking about the email situation it said because he did visit for months talking about lodges uh he had a stop due to his mom’s stroke and now he doesn’t get replied it’s kind of like a
It does kind of tick him off but what can you do yeah I I unfortunately I agree and really and sad as it is there’s no guarantee that anyone’s even checking that email right it might just be like right like a dead end email well and that’s the thing is that if
You’re going to have a website and have an email check it have people in charge Hillcrest is bad ass at it I mean those guys they get notifications when an email comes in it pops up on their screen because they got a couple of guys that work in the tech field and it
Immediately pops up on their screen that they got a an email and they’re answering it within a couple of minutes I mean it within minutes they’re answering that email and they’re starting that betting process that’s how they do it and in fact they no one ever
Gets to go to the lodge until they decide that they’re going to let these people see the lodge and that’s usually right before initiation you know that’s that is a badass way of doing it and I’m all for it but you have to have people dedicated to that job yeah
Billy bacon says spot Hub I’m not sure what spot Hub is but he says it goes straight to his phone so he doesn’t miss candidates and can chat then to answer questions oh it’s an attachment for WordPress Oh okay that’s cool so we we get a lot of contacts through
Facebook through our launch Facebook page and we usually have two or three competent people that can actually I like like someone someone sends us a message it pops up on my phone right so it’s not something I’m never gonna see and uh usually one of us have responded
Within like the next five minutes so that’s effective also at least for all right if you put people on on Facebook like onto the page as administrators whatever and uh they don’t use Facebook or know how to do anything or they don’t have Messenger on their phone that’s probably not a good fit
Oh I’m sorry yes Dennis and I I I know that a lot of Elijah’s use Facebook the book of faces but the book of faces is two-faced and you’re renting that property yeah and if you do not have any control we learned that the hard one yes you have no control if
They’re going to pull the plug at any given moment and then you can’t use messenger or Facebook to to converse with the outside world I think that if you don’t have your own property which is your own domain website then you’re behind you’re you’re you know you got a ways to go yeah
Facebook is good for marketing it’s not good for bringing people in in my opinion that’s why we use MySpace now we have our old our old early 2000s some early 2000 pictures put up and uh it’s cool I mean you could add music and it’s
Linked to our Geo site yeah I mean we got Nickelback playing when you click on it so I mean it’s it’s I’m through with standing in line I love it it’s busting yo so oh my God uh all right hold on uh Jason ruckerberg he uses a secretary email address for Guadalupe that’s
That’s great just good yeah Daniel Dutton says I think you guys are doing great work on this it took me four years to get a connection with someone who is more than who was more than an invitation to dinner I was confused by that why dinner
Now I understand okay well I’m glad I’m glad we’re helping out here Mott’s yeah just discussing uh I have a discussions on capture degrees and things I mean absolutely yeah go out yeah go out for a beer we do it we go to the bar next door yeah
Or or if it’s in the middle of the day go eat or or still go for a beer after yeah after after well and that’s the thing after uh floor school every Wednesday the brothers that go to floor school they go immediately over to Jalisco’s and have dinner and a drink
And just hang out with them and and it’s and everybody knows where they’re a member of everybody knows what’s going on and uh they’re greatly accepted and respected and and you know people look forward to the brothers going out yeah uh Devin McLean says if the universe
That wasn’t doesn’t want me to be a Mason right now then I’ll respect that and won’t push it I would say David McLean yes I would say if if keep knocking buddy yeah if you petition a lodge and they vote and they decline you right if you get blackballed
They say thanks but no thanks but not but don’t yeah don’t and I I’ll just be afraid don’t don’t mistake competence for the universe pushing in a direction right it might just be saying hey these are the places for you hey David um do me a favor message or Devin Devin
Do me a favor and message us um on our on our Facebook page use that and message us and uh tell me where you’re at tell me where you live and see if I can’t help you out okay yeah that’s a good idea uh Daniel Denton says it’s all about getting uh
Two so I’m not sure what that says it’s all about getting to K so people but also it is helping future Brothers know how what to expect and how to join better without having to ask everyone yeah and and to to be frank like Daniel
I don’t know where you what part of the United States you’re in most lodges don’t do the dinner thing right but we we talk about it because it’s it’s best practice right taking and it doesn’t have to be a dinner but some some way of getting to know
Someone that’s knocking on the door if that makes sense um but I mean dinner’s a great way and I think it’s better outside yeah yeah or take them out for coffee or something yeah I also the lodge is best we’re just hanging out and getting to know them
Let’s see and you really get to know somebody after they’ve had a couple of Scots yeah yeah Dan McLean yeah hey I’m not the one that got the beat he says he’ll he’ll uh reach out to Facebook to someone just well do like if you reach out to me and I’ll I’ll point
You in the right direction yeah Jason says that’s one of my biggest pet peeves is is anyone not checking or responding to emails text messages [Laughter] is that you Dennis I’ll get back with you next week Jason most people know they’ll get a response from me if they send any kind of message
Yeah he does yeah I’m not the one don’t make me swipe right I’m not the one that that he’s talking about you just need to send that massive dog after Dennis and keep him back just haven’t sit on his back have you seen their dog yes I’ve seen I’ve seen them in person
I have two dogs yeah I figured you would well I thought maybe they’d I thought maybe it was like a commandri event I thought it was a horse at first but uh it’s a it’s a big dog uh let’s see yeah it’s not it’s not one of the Chihuahuas
That you hold like this yeah uh it’s true the email thing not responding almost maybe you want to give up trying to be a Mason which is not a good thing to be happening no I mean these lodges Devin that are dropping the ball uh it goes back to what we were
Talking about earlier there it’s they’re going to kind of prune themselves because they’re they’re losing up not only are they probably not conferring degrees and I’m not saying you have to confer to Greece be a healthy Lodge but you do have to be able oh I am you do have to be able
Well hold on because that’s a trap Dennis but you do have to be able to break in quality men when they knock on your door there’s a difference because because most lodges will do degrees like they don’t they don’t really diligently do the back like the
Investigation at all and if you want to join as long as you as long as you can check the boxes you’re in right and that’s not healthy well what I’m what I’m saying is that if if you’re not doing enough out there that people want to reach out to you
Something’s wrong with your Lodge already and so if you’re not making Mason then you’re probably not doing a very good job at Freemason or somebody would be contacting you because they would they would see you and they would want what you have yeah that’s kind of how I feel about it
He says uh luckily this channel keeps that fire going to get me to keep attempting especially because I want to be able to think Dennis and Justin in person one day might have a cigar or a drink well we appreciate that yeah I was in a cigar room just
Yesterday and if you if you witness the car in a dream yeah yeah good times but we are actually caught up now here’s here’s the flip side of that also if if you email a lodge and they say oh yeah come on in and get a petition
Then you might you might want to second guess that that particular lodge because if they’re letting anybody in that quick and easy yeah that might be not be the the group of people that you want to be around because you might not get the Freemasonry that you thought you were
Supposed to be getting yeah we should we should our next Lab we should probably talk about red flags for for petitioners oh God I mean because because it doesn’t get addressed right like we talk about hey this is ideally what it should look like but I
Mean there’s lots of red flags like in the buildings falling apart or they give you a petition as soon as you come in things like funny smells really cheap dues yeah funny dead animals smell bad shape yeah yeah things like that and that’s not to say a large can’t come out
Of stuff like that right but carpet from the 80s but as as the new guy it’s kind of hard to get the changes going you want usually unless they’re just uh right really desperate for for new people to bring in ideas but that’s not yours so many and there’s so many lodges
Across Texas right now that are doing such a good job at building on our fraternity like like we should be doing yeah you know they you know we see these Peaks and valleys just like in business you have your it’s all cyclical and you have the peaks in the valleys and right now
We are headed upwards in um participation and interest in education and uh philosophy and and uh and fellowship I mean that’s that’s a big one too being able to go out and bond with each other because it’s those shared experiences that really bring you together so we’ve got a big incline
Right now of Lodge is starting to do that all across Texas and and there are a few Pockets that it’s extremely effective and of course it’s thinner in the rural areas but they’re still starting to do that as well and so it’s not that you wouldn’t be able to
Find one sometimes you do have to drive an hour you know I I do it regularly I was telling somebody today um he was asking me for what what would I advise advise um since he’s a new mason and he said that that he uh he was raised it
Fort Worth 148. I said man that’s an awesome Lodge yeah but even if even though it’s an awesome Lodge don’t get stuck in that thought that that one culture is Freemasonry because it’s not and I love it and they are such a badass Lodge but it’s not the only thing
Freemasonry is so you gotta travel to kind of see the big picture on in Freemasonry and that was my advice that you know be proud of your Lodge but travel as much as you can and so you’ve got to expand your radius and decide where you’re
Willing to travel to for me it’s an hour and 45 minutes each way that’s my that’s my immediate radius that I’ll do On Any Given night I’ll do that on the weekends I’ll go wherever and just get a hotel my girls love Hotel life and uh frankly so do I
I like to be pampered so we travel extensively and have no problem with it so if if you have to drive an hour to find that Lodge that fits you that you really feel comfortable in go for it man and Jason stopped talking [ __ ] about no Jason says uh Simon’s Simon’s my wife’s
Service dog she charges a dollar for charity for every horse saddle or writing him comment so far it’s over three thousand dollars I’m sorry Jason I I was just horsing around if if I was married to Jason I would support animal too please please don’t sell me with any charges thank you
That was another pun Dennis just so you know I know okay I know you’re full of them you’re full of them I know I know and a lot more yeah man so let’s go ahead ouch no don’t be bailing now it’s still too young it’s still still too early
So what what other questions do we have that’s all you know I’m excited I’m excited guys brother Charles Smith is coming all the way from loving with his brother to come to the summit rock and roll man I’m so excited so excited yeah I haven’t seen Charles on tonight
Uh Devin says he’s in Wichita Falls so it’s like 40 minutes from Fort Worth yeah what’s the lodge in Wichita I thought they had a good Lodge at Wichita Falls um I hadn’t been out there lately but 148 is right there in Fort Worth and they’re
A badass yeah and well the building is so impressive well yeah not just that but other bodies need in there as well and so you get a real it’s the immersion of of fraternity there but I’m not I’m not telling you not to go to Wichita Falls but if you
Want I’ll reach out to them and see see what’s going on yeah uh see okay David Lawson actually says uh Devin is in Wichita Falls and to get with you that’s where I am also and can help you yeah maybe there you go very good things about Wichita rock and roll
Man I’ve heard good things about Wichita Falls I think yeah Faith 1158 okay yeah that’s it that’s where I heard about it because yes well I think Jay I think Justin’s from there too yeah Jason hiroshida actually says faith Lodge is his in Wichita so maybe it was just uh
Maybe it’s just the way he was getting a hold of him I don’t know but uh yeah now there you go right there you have yeah Two Three Brothers right there yeah because you know that’s why we do this and that excites me just that right there yeah dang that’s badass
From the the people we have the chat like especially like if you’re in Texas you’re like hey I live in this part of Texas we got enough inner circles from members from all over the state and not just Inner Circle members but we got just enough regulars that uh if we know where
You’re at in Texas there’s probably someone on here that can hook you up right yeah David David Yachts not David davion’s uh and Justin came from Faith Lodge as soon as I saw Faith watch is like yeah yeah because I could have swore I was like I just talked to someone from Wichita
Falls but yeah but yeah David and Justin came uh to one of my largest and gave uh Dave gave a presentation so I know I know Wichita Falls has a healthy Lodge I don’t know what the what the hang up was with communication but I mean you got it
Now so uh please please y’all work together and uh help out Devin so hey what are the odds huh right let’s see that’s badass that’s why we’re here man yep it’s doing our thing Peter Beckett says he lives 20 minutes between two lodges he drives an hour to Billy
Moses Billy Moss for his home Lodge yeah I I um most of my blue lodges are pretty close but um I have driven pretty far before see so we already talked about all that see yeah I’m just I’m just catching up because because a lot of that stuff we
Already got go ahead go ahead and read it yeah I I’ll drive wherever I feel necessary to fill my cup that’s that’s bottom line I really want to enjoy my Freemasonry and I’m not gonna let anybody ruin it for me see David Lawson says Devin we have floor school tomorrow
Night at 6 30 Kim and we’ll talk there you go and I like it that y’all have floor school tomorrow too that’s that’s badass it is more lodges should do that Alfredo M says any work on cook PV 1162 Lodge you’re have you heard about that Dennis
Or anybody here it’s news to me I’m not I don’t never heard that Lodge name I know that I’m fixing to look it up on Hannity yeah it’s a good idea yeah so I I don’t know particularly anything about it let me see here and who and who was that
That asked about it Alfredo m M yeah I’m curious where is where whereabouts are you alfredo man my internet’s slow yeah Devin says he’ll stop by so badass that’s awesome man that’s awesome I guess we could have that that beer and cigar sooner than later Kudos y’all I’m just saying
What was the it was cook PV so c-o-o c-o-o-k-e pvp-e-a-v-y Let’s see you got a website I got a Facebook too send it’s in uh say the Dallas or Fort Worth yeah but I haven’t heard anything about it so me neither yeah I mean there’s something going on I’d be curious I mean if that’s why you’re asking but they
Don’t have it or anything so is it one of The Lodges that meets in a building that that they’re uh getting rid of because I know there was a there was one that went through the real estate committee last year that they were looking to get rid of that that
Lodges needed to find a home to go to find a new building to go to because the building is too much for them to keep up with which I say kudos to them for making that decision but they got floor school on Wednesday so if you’re if you’re asking because you’re close
That’d be a good time to to go check it out but I haven’t been there so yeah it’s in Fort Worth though but no I haven’t heard anything about it sorry let’s see yep but anyway Dennis it’s been an hour it’s in the clock I have bags under my eyes I have work
Tomorrow I’m not young like you I can’t stay up and party all night on Sundays anymore so I would love to hear your party every day okay so they made in the Masonic temple apparently in Fort Worth oh okay yeah very cool okay but no I haven’t heard anything
About them I know I know the Masonic temple is fantastic I’ll be I I will actually be at that Masonic temple this coming Saturday for Masonic con it’s a beautiful building by the way if you’re in the area you should definitely go to a Sonic con because
It’s it’s a it’s a Well Spent it’s time well spent and then go ahead and get your ticket for the summit and just make September just amazing it’s the first stuff and we’ve made it we’ve actually made it we’ve actually made it easier now uh we
Have a website dedicated to that you can go there and and it takes you to get the ticket it’s Masonic summit.com and uh I’ll post it so you can go there and get your tickets yeah and you’ll get to uh meet some of the brightest Minds in in Freemasonry today and I
I am super stoked to be able to be there and listen to it myself yep so the link I just posted is sonicsummit.com it has everything you need to get set up to to register for the Persona Improvement Summit but you only have 33 days 10
Hours 59 minutes and 57 56 55 seconds 54 seconds so uh yeah I love that clock time is ticking your attitude It’s the final countdown but it’s got all the information you could ever possibly need to know and it’s right there in one convenient location thank you thank you
And if it’s not there ask Justin Donuts yeah [Laughter] yes so that’s gonna be awesome can you attend as a non-mason it is it is limited no it’s a master master races so yeah yeah sorry uh yeah this is um this is talking about uh leadership in Freemasonry and there’s a lot of
Historical information about um where we’ve been and so that we can where we’ve been where we are so that we know what we need to do going forward to help ourselves instead of uh doing like you know some people like to do and just be an
Ostrich put your head in the hole and yep hope it goes away uh Peter Baker says I gave commandri oh he has commandry 19th but I want to try and go after yeah please dude it’d be cool to hang out with you uh I guess Devin looked up the
Temple Fort Worth Tempo he says it looks awesome as cool as it looks outside and and I know there’s some people that that for whatever reason they’re not fans of the like the commandery but the Asylum that they have in that building is like one of the most
Beautiful you don’t need to be talking about the Asylum that’s not even the one you used to live at not the one that you got out of talking about not the insane asylum Dennis no they have they uh hey man that’s that’s a little too personal but they they have a
As beautiful as the building is it’s it’s just as beautiful if not more beautiful inside it’s a and one of the things I like one of the things I like the most about it is in a lot of the reason why I like our Scottish Rite building in San Antonio so
Much number one it’s just badass I mean it’s right there in the middle of downtown and and it has its presence and the same way with Fort Worth 148 but there’s a lot of different stuff happening in that building so you have like with us we have three lodges that
Meet in that building we have um the York right that meets in that building we um we do our Scottish Rite Stuff obviously and then we have Banquets and stuff coming in in our building I mean there’s there’s always a lot going on with the with the buildings that’s why I
Think all these lodges start selling their little buildings and support the big cool one because if you had more lodges utilized there would never be an issue with with money on either side not with the big building or with the little lodges I think a lot of districts would benefit from
Especially these lodges where they’re basically being kept Alive by dual memberships right you if they if they were they don’t have to merge I’m not talking about merging if they just move their Charters to one central location sell the buildings and put that money to either building something bigger and
Nicer or improving the building that it’s in we would really strengthen Freemasonry all across the state oh yeah there’s so many at some point it’s going to have to happen it’s going to have to I mean either forcefully or not but lodges lodges would be you know the the reason
I think York right I’m talking about my York rat I know that my York right is so healthy is because we don’t have to worry about money if that makes sense and we could focus on the education and actually provide providing value like we still do some charity stuff but
We don’t do fundraising and we just work on providing value the way I’m going with this is if lodges sold their buildings and and met in one location they they don’t really have bills it’s split among however many places you know five or six lodges now you don’t have to
Worry so much about fundraising in fact your dues might cover all your expenses and then you could just focus on providing value to the community that your namesake is from or where your logic originated at I mean that’d be so fantastic right um uh yeah because go ahead because the institution
Of Freemasonry is still going to decline yeah and not the quality of the three masonry that we have going on but the instrument the institution portion is going to shrink and it would be much better if we would be wise and and be proactive and US call the shots on
What’s going to happen to to make a positive impact with our lives as opposed to letting it just run itself into the ground and one day Grand Lodge has to say you know what you’re not doing Freemasonry we’ll take that Charter back yep uh Zachary haston
Says Hey guys caught you alive so he’ll Hawthorne live but we’re kind of unfortunately we’re kind of wrapping up um Justin hiroshida says the problem is with being in a wood roof the largest might fight for soul control yeah they could I think a way to prevent that that’s not Freemasonry in my
Opinion it’s not but if you had like a temple committee or something and you have like two representatives from each Lodge or something to keep it equal or something like that but even even yeah I have a Board of Trustees yeah but here’s the thing in a lot of these districts
Uh 20 30 years they’re they’re all going to be meeting in Saint Lodge anyway and now it could be because we we move our lodges our Charters and or are being Forward Thinking or it could be because the largest demise and they all had the merge so either way everyone’s going to be
Meeting in the same one or two buildings it’s just gonna be there’s gonna be there’s gonna be consolidation one way or the other right we can do one of my mentors always said go ahead I’m sorry I was gonna say we could do it voluntarily
Or we could do it uh as a necessity but either way I think inevitably we’re going to see something like that and if it’s and if it’s by necessity you’re just hurting the lodge and Eternity Itself by doing that yeah it’s we’re making we’re making a bad impression on
On our on the society for ourselves and yeah we shouldn’t we shouldn’t have those egos involved yeah we should always be thinking about what we can do for the betterment of Free Masonry and stop thinking about what we can do for the betterment of ourselves well I’ll tell you from personal
Experience I’m talking about a merge but uh a merge can be the best thing for for both bodies if if it’s done smartly if it’s done wisely yeah if you take a dying if you if you take a a dying Lodge and merge it with another dying Lodge that’s not necessarily going
To be beneficial but if you take just two unhealthy lodges that that that have together they would have what they need right but apart they’re just incomplete then uh you can really you can really create a very healthy organization that way it’s just that it’s just a matter of being able to identify
And it’s not necessarily your closest Lodge right you could say uh will we really you might say well we really focus on fundraising and it’s like well that launch focuses on that or you can say hey we really like education here we’re not doing really healthy that launch really likes
Education too so let’s just combine it hey Austin white well and and here’s with that thought though here’s another thought if you move in and one Lodge likes education the other one likes philanthropy then now you have the opportunity to have both and because you know that that
Lodge with philanthropy has a few guys that love education and you have a few guys from the one that loves education that really love philanth are you talking about a merger or sharing it yeah if you’re if you’re merging then you you can fill that cuff with each
Other because you have the strength of both things there and it it takes more than just one thing to make a successful Lodge and create a successful culture in your Lodge yeah uh so also why says hello fellas hello new IL Texas profit yeah we were talking
About that earlier uh I was kind of disappointed I didn’t get a fez because I wanted to take some selfies but that costs money in time I paid for it boy I got that I paid for it I’m just waiting on it so yeah once I get there
So you want to play around says and but you can’t find the time for the Scottish Rite we still I see where your priority The Grotto found time for me yeah they and they love education I know that well uh I’ll do Scottish Rite it just has to coincide
Like when it’s convenient for you yes that’s that’s what it is when it is that’s what if it’s an inconvenience for me then I probably will not yeah I know I’m very selfish what is this that is that’s pretty self-centered it doesn’t look like he wants to park my car
Who the [ __ ] is that Austin was that Austin go away Austin no stay I love it between Austin and Jason I think we gotta cover wait we are still alive by the way right that’s why I said effort oh okay that okay all right but no Austin Austin uh was on in the
Degree I don’t actually I’m sorry Austin I don’t know what your title was but he was wearing very elaborate robes so he looked important and I was saying earlier like that was a that was a that was a really I really enjoyed that degree uh why am I wearing this Austin
Because there are skulls in my Freemasonry he says we know we know Dennis wants to hang out with the Nerds and read his books and have no fun what Grotto are you a member of Dennis do what what grade are you a member of I’m not oh okay all right that’s all
Right okay it’s not convenient for me Austin says it was called the Monarch like a butterfly like a butterfly huh no like the crown that’s the symbol that’s the symbol for a monarch is the crown oh oh yeah what a flex Austin or Flex we don’t we don’t talk about flexes
Anymore we don’t flex flex your Plex flex your Plex Vegas don’t start flexing here too don’t make me call Kyle and get him on here to help you know that whole Flex day they really bothered me am I like the first one it was like
Uh but then then it kind of got silly I don’t really I mean yeah I didn’t get it at first like can we stop with the flex post it’s like why can’t we have a little bit of fun just don’t don’t read it if you don’t care for it
Right so the presiding officer in Grotto is called the prophet monarch remember that Dennis um the pro not just the Monarch not just the prophet I’m already I’m already a monarch I don’t need The Grotto to be a monarch yeah like a butterfly I’m the well it matches my tattoo right back here
We put Yeah Austin I’ve already informed everybody this I was very excited when we got on live so I was telling about it but yeah uh yeah they did the first the first full 7x ceremonial on Texas in several decades uh Jason uh I’ll I’ll share this question with
Dennis but keep in mind like I’m gonna have to go here pretty soon and you know you know how Dennis gets about this kind of stuff so he asked Justin hiroshida says so can we post fundraisers on Facebook yes short answer the the rule of thumb
Okay let me let me can post okay um do what someone said can post can’t pay for advertisements right you can’t put it in in a newspaper or something like that but you can post it online go to uh I corrected myself I’m sorry Texas texas.gov and uh
And they’ll tell you because those laws change every year so go because there are new laws pertaining to the Raffles and stuff um and that’s what you can’t advertise with paid advertising you can actually have a different fundraiser just a regular fundraiser that’s not a raffle and actually advertise it you can
Because it’s because you’ll have to pay taxes against it but a raffle you you get two of them not having to pay taxes on each year and that’s why there’s certain rules to it to keep it from but there are the law changed and you are allowed to post it on like Texas
Freemasons or whatever so he says just needed an official yes or no I would say just to cover our own Tales here we look at the business law look at the law like we can’t give an official yes or no because we don’t presume to speak for any yeah we’re not Physicians yeah
We’re not official we’re not lawyers so um even if even the lawyers won’t give you that information they’ll tell you to go read it yeah so I mean Dennis gave you his interpretation and that’s that’s kind of the consensus among some people some grips so he says that’s what the law says yeah
Yeah oh he meant to ask I read I read the laws he meant to ask about Raffles not fundraisers yeah and that’s it is that Raffles you can but it’s um it’s frowned upon by our Fraternity in Texas I can tell you that and people will tell you to take it
Down and things like that because they don’t want the liability but it actually is legal to do it but I think Raffles have to go towards benevolence right like you can’t use it for operating costs or anything like that right right it’s it’s an actual charity wrap that’s why you’re allowed
To do it up to uh your prizes can be worth up to like fifty thousand dollars or no I think it’s 250 000 now more than most lodges have to worry about yeah at one time you were able to you know raffle off a house if you wanted to
And that’s why it went up to house that’s why it went up that’s why it went up to as much as it did yeah yeah but it you know the laws are pretty cut and dry and and they’re in layman’s terms pretty much you’re not reading a big you know Constitution
Document this it they have it on the uh on the website and they have it just broken down one two three four five yes yes yes you can do no no no you can’t do it yeah all right let’s wrap it up give your final thoughts and then I will my final thoughts
Is I am very tired hey Caesar Caesar Rubio hopped on we’re actually we’re actually wrapping up buddy but uh but uh we need to we need to get Caesar back on the show we do sometime we do probably and and all of you and all of you Brothers out
There listening Caesar has Masonic muscle um the podcast in the original the original Flex right the real play literally and it’s and it’s not just about it’s not just about you know working out and stuff but he is uh concerned about people keeping healthy and and uh
And keeping that temple in the best shape it can be and and even more so the the muscle in the in your skull so you know it’s a great podcast to listen to It’s a great YouTube to to watch and uh I recommend it to all of our all of
Our listeners I really do yeah I always enjoy listening to it I always enjoy it absolutely in fact sometimes sometimes I feel kind of dumb listening to him he has a lot to say well that’s good that makes it makes for a for a good interview yeah we have to do that again
So yeah absolutely yeah so I mean I don’t really I really have anything else I’m just see I have to check his channel out I remember watching the interview with him was pretty interesting is he on YouTube I listen to the podcast I didn’t know if
You had a YouTube or not well I always listen to the podcast too but I’m pretty certain he has a YouTube channel as well yeah maybe I always I do everything I do everything through Spotify yeah I do I just do me too they they support us we
Support them yeah so yeah I mean look look up Masonic muscle on YouTube If you prefer videos if he’s there um I’m sure it’s great otherwise definitely look it up on Spotify and uh there’s a lot of stuff there’s a lot of good videos I mean a lot of good podcasts so
Uh if you got them all Drive turn it on because they’re good yeah that’s what I do oh he says he’s down on you so okay yeah yeah so he’s done on YouTube I could have sworn that oh I guess it was an interview with somebody else yeah it’s
Probably our interviews but I know he’s interviewed other people as well so oh okay that’s probably what it was yeah now don’t forget Brothers we now have the Masonic summit.com website to go to to make it easier for you to sign up there it is yes and uh
I’d like to go back to what we started talking about originally and that is the the circles within Freemasonry so and this is going to be my final thought so earlier we were talking about six points of contact to get to anybody that you want to right well I think that
Also with what we were talking about with the with the book club or whatever starting small in your Lodge and creating that book club so that club of like-minded men that are getting together that are reading intelligent books and having intelligent discussion discussion you’re forming a bond and creating that Circle
That’s your that’s your inner circle right there just like we have our Inner Circle of subscribers and and uh and contributors to our to our uh show um you’ll find that in your little book club or in in your floor school club whatever you’re doing in Freemasonry
That you have this this group of guys that y’all are Die Hard gonna do it no matter what anybody else says that’s your circle and then each one of those people in that Circle has another Circle somewhere else and if you just build those bonds eventually you’re
Going to know about that other Circle and you’ll probably get invited over to that other city so then you’ll meet all these new people and it and it happens and eventually it spreads um like the formation of cells you know they they they split and and expand and
Then they split and expand it’s kind of the same thing you can you can create growth exponentially with your Freemasonry by just focusing on your circles it’s very true and putting all you put all your effort into the stuff that you love and then you’ll find before too long
That you’ll you’ll know people all over the world that’s the truth that’s the truth and that’s why Justin and I are here because we’re helping people to expand their circles that’s because a lot of us feel like we’re on yeah absolutely and and we need to fill
Our cups so Caesar says uh he was on against kmu so that might be where he saw that’s where it was that’s where it was speaking of plugs uh I wanted to give a shout out he’s not here but my friend Jim Hall he runs the Traveling Man Masonic podcast he interviewed
Uh red Billings Brad yeah that releases tomorrow on his podcast so Um oh I mean I’m excited to hear it I always like hearing Brad’s always a good doctor yeah he’s always a whole conversation so uh if you listen to traveling man keep an ear out for it if you don’t I mean I’ve been on it so I know it’s a great
Podcast so so be sure to be sure to uh find a podcast listen to it yeah yeah he’s great you know he’s a great guy so um check it out but other than that I’m tired and rambling and and I need to sleep so keep it between keep it between the points Brothers
Somebody’s got to do it I did it best just saying I did it my
