Uh, but to hear you describe it as one in the same i, is striking.

Yeah, and I'm speaking just for myself, to be clear.

But, uh, there are many in, in the, I call it his first family, if you will.

Uh, just like a first wife, second wife thing.

Um, many that feel the same way.

There's, there are many that f- don't feel that way, so.

David, for those family members who don't accept this evidence and don't accept this history, uh, what, what do you think their responsibility is?

I, I think their responsibility is to, to face up to science, number one.

But Hynan says other circumstances surrounding the case were very peculiar.

No damage to the vehicle.

No personal items in the car.

The gas cap of the car was missing.

The fuel door was open.

District Attorney David Miller's theory of what happened that day was far different from Sheila's.

Sheila Bryan drove that car down the side of that embankment and set that car on fire with her mama inside the car.

When you read church fathers, any one in particular stand out to you that you find, like, those stories in church history are extremely compelling or kind of overwhelmingly saying, "Hey, we for sure are seeing demonic activity here in the first, second, third, fourth century"?

Yeah, there's a few.

I mean, one that when I read this, I remember when I lived in Central California and I was still in the Navy, and I was just researching this, like, while I wasn't working.

And I was reading through one of Chrysostom's homilies, and he says in the homily, like, he brings up a question, and the question that is that day being debated is not whether or not a Christian can have demon because they all obviously have demons.

It, it-- From-- He's assuming this in his homily, but he's saying, "Is it possible for that demon to prevent that Christian from going to heaven?" And so he's answering, "No, a demonized Christian is not...

Uh, uh, no matter how strong the demon is, it won't prevent them from going to heaven." In fact, the Lord allows Christians to have demons to basically punish them for being in sin and humble them, and when they're eventually delivered, then they're more sanctified.

Now, we can argue with Chrysostom's theology about what demonization does and whether it humbles us or not, but the fact that he was teaching at length of...

Tell us what the argument was and wh- why you take the side you take on it.

What do you think the advent of retail investors had done to the portfolio selection, portfolio construction, and credit selection in your portfolios?

So for us, we haven't changed our portfolio construction or credit selection process for retail portfolios.

They're virtually the same as our institutional portfolios, and that's, you know, based on a lot of diversification, limiting borrower concentration, avoiding cyclicals, et cetera.

The one difference that's important for our non-traded BDC is we do have about ten percent of the portfolio in broadly syndicated loans, uh, to add a little bit more liquidity to the portfolio.

But otherwise, they're pretty much the same.

I think the biggest impact that we've witnessed over the past few years where there's been a large inflow of retail capital, uh, has been to push spreads tighter and weaken some of the terms than they would've otherwise been.

There was a lot of capital that needed to be deployed quickly, so we, we saw that and were quite cautious.

If we had to highlight one risk or one opportunity in private credit for investors over the next year, what would it be?

What's on your mind about SmackDown tonight?

Uh, thanks for the plug, Wade.

Appreciate it.

Of course.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Um, Oh yeah, absolutely.

David says Jihad had a lot of energy, and a pattern emerged as early as kindergarten.

Always in timeout, coming to the school, and he's sitting in the corner in tears, not having a good day.

And every day the teacher was like, "Oh, he got a sad face today.

He wasn't listening." It wasn't good for his self-esteem at a very young age to always being told that you're doing something wrong at six.

I mean, it was- it was killing, it was killing me slowly.

David says Jihad's kindergarten teacher was trying her best, but he believes that as a White woman, she didn't know how to educate boys of color.

The teacher told us that he would be in special education for the rest of his life.

"Don't have a lot of high hopes, you know, for college." I remember, um, one day we went to go pick my son up.

She had actually put a weighted vest on him, because her rationale was, "If I put this on him, this probably will slow this little guy's energy down." And for us, you know, that was the absolute, you know, last straw for us.
