there's always a reason, always an excuse not to take the risks that we need to take in order to accomplish noble objectives. Excuses are abundant, but that is exactly what God is asking us to do, to act in faith. And as our guest today knows so well, things are often not perfect. And so many people in this world wait for a perfect scenario to act And there's never a perfect scenario. And Boone Cutler understands that better than most people we've ever had on this show. And what a pleasure. Boone, I was saying to Danielle before you came on the air, in reading about you, the thought that continued to come to my mind was, this is a man who has done literally everything it's possible to do for his country, except die, literally die. And even that you were willing to do. And it is a profound privilege to have you with us today. Thank you for joining us, sir. Chris and Danielle, thank you so much. And that scripture really does speak to me because when General Flynn and I sat down and wrote session three of the Citizens' Guide to Fit, Generational Warfare, The Role of the Church, a lot of the same themes and messaging that come from that message that comes from Ephesians is, yeah, you got to step out. You got to get out of your comfort zone. You got to have that. You got to have the belief that this, you got to fight from victory as General Flynn likes to put it. And that's true. You know, you have to believe in yourself and you have to believe in your cause and you have to take steps. I think that the biggest thing in session three, the role of the church that we wrote is really centers around that because there are people who have the desire to take those steps, but they need a little nudge in what direction to move. And, and they're, because when people are confused, they do nothing. This is a fact because they're just going to kind of hunker down. So when you take away the confusion, then they have the ability to go, oh, wait a minute, I can see a path here. And they're willing to take those steps with maybe a little tiny bump, a little bit of a nudge, whatever it is. Maybe it's a pain point that they've seen in the media. Maybe it's a pain point they're seeing politically. Maybe it's a pain point that is affecting their families and they want it to stop. And so they're willing to take that action. but they don't often know what to do. And I think that's been the major aspect of why we've started putting out these books. And now we've written three of them for people in various areas. And they might be a little bit ahead of their time, but they're in place. They're there when people have decided that, okay, I need to know more. I need to figure out more. And then I need to know what to do and how to do it. So they're available. And that's why we're doing that. And Boone, I love that you said they might be ahead of their time because it I think that hearkens to the fact that everyone is in a process of awakening. And some of us have woken up, no matter when you wake up, you feel like it's too late. You know, you feel like you're late to the party. You're so offended that you have been duped this whole entire time. But in my awakening process, I just have to say thank you. And thanks to General Flynn so much for writing these books, because especially the intro, A Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare intro, it has created a framework. Whenever you first wake up and you first realize that basically everything that the media has told you, everything that the government has been telling you your entire life has been a series of blatant lies, that's a really hard pill to swallow. And there's not much at that time. I think I started really waking up end of 20, well, end of 2020, mid 2020, maybe the same time as a lot of people. And I, there was no framework yet in place for me to think about what is going on. How do we know what is real? How do we even have a grid for the reality, this parallel universe that we happen to find ourselves living in that we didn't know we were living in? And for me, your books have been that. It's been a great framework to ground me and help me to understand, okay, there are people on both sides of this info war. There are people who are out to influence the way that I think, what I think, and basically ensure that I don't think for better or for worse. And so I just can't say thank you enough for putting the time into this. I know your work in PSYOPs, Psychological Operations, has been a great informer for that book. And if you want to just talk about it a little bit more, feel free, because I know not all of our listeners are aware of the book series. Well, I think the important, you know, where does the story start? And it was right in that same timeframe. You know, I kind of went through this thing in echelons myself because, you know, I got out of the military and I had this great background and it was wonderful and they discharged me. I was injured in Iraq and so I couldn't do that anymore. And I went into veteran advocacy and that's where I put, I still put a lot of my time into veteran advocacy and helping veterans, you know, get through things and whatever that looks like to them. And it was a very good time because I had a great radio show. I was on the Fox affiliate in Reno. Then I was on CBS in Reno. And so every weekend, one, it gave me a mission again because I had to be on the air, which means I had to get out of my own head and the things that were going on in my life and focus on a show. And as you know, if you're going to do, and I had the Saturday morning show from 11 to 2, so that's a lot of content you got to push. And so the whole week was spent researching. I'm not the greatest guy when it comes to, oh, I'm going to write down my questions and this is what I'm going to ask. I don't really do it that way. I just kind of get very, very familiar with the topic and then have a conversation. I think that's how the audience likes it. I think the audience likes the interviewer to be informed on the topic so they can ask the questions that the audience wants to ask as they arise. That was an impact too. And then about the same time, you know, that same time from you're talking about 2019, 2020, 2021, you know, that was a change, you know, myself and my friends, we were kind of looking around saying, Hey, does this, does this stuff look familiar? And it was like, yeah, this stuff looks really familiar. Why are, why is it happening here? You know, this is the type of stuff that we do other places. And, you know, there's obviously some serious penetration into, you know, US networks to be able to conduct these types of operations in the US at the, at the scale that it was happening. So that, that really kind of perked up a lot of, a lot of people who had knowledge of, of, of different types of psychological operations, influence campaigns. And it was, it was significant. Then it was like, okay, well, what are we going to do? You know, I mean, do we do something? Is something being done? You know, how, What part, is there a part to play? And if there is, what is that part? And then, you know, it just kind of came down to, well, you know, just let's have a good communication. And I think when people look back, if we're 50 years into the future and people look back and they're going to say, you know, where did all this come together? Like, how did all these people that had knowledge and what they don't realize is the Afghanistan withdrawal. You know, when that Afghanistan withdrawal was so botched that people came together, you know, especially from the warfighter community and from the intelligence community, you know, also and said, hey, we're going to get our people out ourselves. We're going to make that happen ourselves. We're not leaving people behind. You know, U.S. government has completely screwed this thing up and we need to kind of jump in. And it was during that time that a lot of us got together with a singular focus on And obviously there was downtime, you know, in between, you know, doing these types of operations. And then it was, we were talking and we were talking and we were all kind of brainstorming and sharing what we thought, what we saw. And, and then, you know, plans started being made. And, and then when the whole, when that whole thing started settling down, then it was like, hey, we kind of like doing this. We kind of like working with each other. We miss that from being on active duty. So what's next? What can we do next together? And that started a whole different type of synergy. But again, when people look back, and I hope it gets credit for this, when people look back from the future, they're going to say, how did all these people come together with a singular focus? And it was because we were pissed, you know, I mean, you basically, you pissed, you pissed on our reputation and, and our, you know, our, our blood, sweat and tears that we put into this battle. And for the first time that people were like, we're not going to take this. We're just going to take control. And, and that was, that was a beautiful thing. It really was tragic, but a beautiful thing came from something that was so tragic. And then, it just turns into a thing. You end up in rooms with people and you end up talking with people and it's like, okay, I think I can fit in here or I think we figured this out here. Where do we start? And that kind of culminated into a hallway. One day, General Flynn and I were sitting in a hallway and he says to me, it's amazing. People just feel so confused. They feel so manipulated. And I thought that was really interesting because he was primarily speaking to evangelical audiences when he was talking about this interaction with the, with people, with the citizen, with the populace. And I thought that was very interesting because his audience was totally different than mine. Mine was the veteran, veteran audience. That is, I mean, every color of the rainbow and every, you know, walk of life and every political perspective. And they were saying the same thing. Like, I just feel so manipulated, so confused. And the light just went on and then it was like, okay, then we know what we're looking at. And you think about General Flynn, you know, he's worked at the highest levels of intelligence. I'm a ground guy, you know, I'm a ground team guy. So I don't, you know, I didn't have that perspective that he did, but I'm pretty good at working the street and understanding what's going on and how people are behaving and how to influence attitudes to change behavior and all that stuff. And I was looking at the, the way, the things that were influencing behavior at that time. And then it came down, okay, yeah, we're looking at regular warfare, unrestricted warfare, hybrid warfare, you know, under the umbrella of fifth generation warfare. So how do we get people on the same sheet of music? Because we both know that there is no continuity of action until you have continuity of message. This is a fact. One cannot happen before the other. It's very biblical. The word becomes flesh, right? You know, the things that you're talking about become reality, call it law of attraction, call it whatever you want to call it. This happens over and over again.
