In this powerful and emotional clip from an episode of Fargo Talks, Jeff Fargo and Frank Fertitta IV discuss a growing divide in America—the fading patriotism among younger generations—and what they’re doing about it.
🇺🇸 What you’ll hear:
Frank shares his concern over how few young people show pride in the flag, the military, or those who served—saying, “It shouldn’t be political to respect sacrifice.”
Jeff recalls a classroom visit where only two students stood for the Pledge of Allegiance, raising deeper questions about cultural shifts in America.
Fertitta reveals that this year, Easy Day Foundation@EasyDayFoundationis the official nonprofit partner of the 2025 American Music Awards, happening live on CBS and Paramount+ this Memorial Day (May 26th).
All donations from the event will go to organizations supporting veterans through mental health, job placement, and family support.
This isn’t about politics—it’s about purpose. And this Memorial Day, Vegas is standing up.
