Full Transcript: The Charlie James Show – Hour 2 Segment 1 (Audio Clip - Patriotic Music / Crowd): "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." (Singing) "O beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea!" Crowd / Audio Clip: "America is back!" Charlie James: Yes sir! And we are back. Let's go to the phones, we'll talk to Anthony in Greer. How you doing, Anthony? Anthony (caller): Good, so yourself? Charlie James: I'm really good, man. What's up? Anthony (caller): Fantastic. Just going back to last segment before the commercial and stuff, talking about all the mothers killing and stuff. Going back to... the killings, going back to senators and congressmen and stuff. In my opinion, there's just absolutely no accountability or consequences at all. Everybody's a victim, everybody's got a special title of some kind that, you know, "Oh, he was this, he's that." There's no accountability for anything. Charlie James: No. Ever notice when people ever tell stories, they're never the villain? Anthony (caller): Exactly. It's always, you know, "Oh, I had this problem, I had that..." Everybody's got problems, deal with it! Charlie James: Yeah. Yeah, you don't act out like that. But you're right about that, man. I mean, everybody... nobody will just say, "Listen, I did a bad thing, and I need to be punished for it." Anthony (caller): Yeah, that's the thing. No accountability for that, and nobody turns around and says like, "Hey, you have a problem? Great. You acknowledge you have a problem. Deal with it! People have to deal with it, now how do you work around it?" Charlie James: Every single day! People deal with issues every single day. Anthony, I appreciate it, buddy. Let's go to Esther in Simpsonville. Esther, welcome. Esther (caller): Yes. Uh, I would like to make the point that sexually transmitted diseases can cause all kinds of brain damage. Um, I know someone personally who had syphilis, obtained syphilis from her husband. Charlie James: Oh, wow. Esther (caller): And did not realize it, and she ended up dying. She had holes all in her brain. So, the... the prevalence of just free sex in this society... there's a lot of women that have had multiple partners... Charlie James: Yeah, and that's... and that's a badge of honor these days. They call it the body count. "What's your body count?" I would have never... Unbelievable. That's gross! Esther (caller): And the other thing is... is that they have done research and found that every time a woman connects with a man mentally... women connect with men mentally when they're in love. Um, and every time that that connection is broken, it damages her brain more. Charlie James: Mm. Esther (caller): It damages her. So, all of these women who are having... they, you know, and men, who are just constantly... oh, they're living... they move in with somebody, they live with them for a while, they're... oh, they're... they're connected to them, they're... they're interacting with them like husband and wife, when they're not. And then they break up with them, and the next person comes along a few months later, they're with somebody else. Charlie James: Yeah. Esther (caller): That isn't healthy. In any way, it's not healthy for either sex, but it's especially not healthy for women. Men can separate sexual acts from their... themselves mentally, women cannot. Charlie James: Well, some men can. Some men can. I mean, but you're right, Esther. I mean... but you're right, we live in a society and what we have done... And you know Gloria Steinem just died. Died alone. No children. She aborted the child that she had. So, there's... there's Gloria Steinem, really the... the mother of f ...
