- 0:54Speaker 3: your Saturdays for most of us, just like a Monday
- 0:57Speaker 3: or a Tuesday. And so you've got work to do
- 1:00Speaker 3: and you've got to get on it, dog on it,
- 1:02Speaker 3: and so text message, you know, voice to text even
- 1:06Speaker 3: uh and just send it to four three four eight

- 1:17Speaker 3: if you have time, make it as a phone call,
- 1:19Speaker 3: as Joel is doing in Florida. Uh, this morning. Good morning, Joel.
- 1:23Speaker 3: So what was on your mind that brought you to
- 1:25Speaker 3: call us right before we got to the news.
- 1:28Speaker 6: Oh, good morning, Joe. Well, I think a lot of
- 1:32Speaker 6: people are looking for.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Balance and a lot of that is lost.
- 1:37Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of that's been lost with I hate
- 1:40Speaker 6: to keep we all hate to keep saying it is
- 1:43Speaker 6: COVID and and then the up start the movement of
- 1:48Speaker 6: AI and more social media influenced probably TikTok and Facebook
- 1:55Speaker 6: and Instagram, and then the media using those for format
- 2:01Speaker 6: and and placement. But I think the biggest thing is
- 2:05Speaker 6: how to discern what is truthful, what is honorable, and
- 2:10Speaker 6: what is factual and bring it back to that balance.
- 2:13Speaker 6: And when I hear people like Mark Warner, Senator Warner talking,
- 2:20Speaker 6: you know, making making remarks about the FBI and this
- 2:24Speaker 6: and that, it just seems like, and I mean there's
- 2:27Speaker 6: Republicans too, but it just seems like they're never satisfied
- 2:32Speaker 6: with anything. I mean, and and unless unless it unless
- 2:37Speaker 6: it fits their own you know, goes into their mouth,
- 2:39Speaker 6: it goes to their stomach. You know, it's just it's
- 2:42Speaker 6: it's aggravating, and people are people are getting discouraged on that. Well,
- 2:46Speaker 6: people want to live, work, breathe, and and do and
- 2:50Speaker 6: I say normal things.
- 2:52Speaker 3: You know, well, here's the I think what you're sensing.
- 2:56Speaker 3: And you have to understand that media creations, like Mark
- 2:59Speaker 3: Warner or any politician, most politicians, they are a media creation.
- 3:04Speaker 3: They are an entity. They are a character on some
- 3:07Speaker 3: sort of program. And so you know, it's not like you.
- 3:11Speaker 3: So you're a nurse. You treat the patient that comes in,
- 3:14Speaker 3: you fix them up, and you send them out, and
- 3:16Speaker 3: you know what your job is. Point A to point B.
- 3:19Speaker 3: These folks who are just creations of a media narrative,
- 3:24Speaker 3: they have to go out and constantly be creating attention
- 3:28Speaker 3: for themselves. I watch it in my industry. My industry
- 3:31Speaker 3: is just and I've been unfortunately guilty of not providing
- 3:37Speaker 3: as much money for my family as I could because
- 3:40Speaker 3: we do great radio. I just don't do publicity stunts.
- 3:43Speaker 3: And apparently if I did more publicity stunts, I might
- 3:47Speaker 3: have made more money in my radio career. But it's
- 3:50Speaker 3: that attracting your attention to yourself industry that you're seeing.
- 3:54Speaker 3: Marjorie Taylor Green's in it now. And what we're doing
- 3:59Speaker 3: is we the people as consumers of this teleplay, are
- 4:04Speaker 3: you know, thinking that there's actual things that are going
- 4:07Speaker 3: to happen. And that's the thing that if there's a
- 4:10Speaker 3: theme of this program, Joel, and you've listened to me
- 4:12Speaker 3: for a long time and obviously it has had some
- 4:15Speaker 3: ill side effects on you, but that it frustrates me
- 4:21Speaker 3: that these people who are media creations have convinced the
- 4:25Speaker 3: American people that there's going to be something done for them.
- 4:30Speaker 7: Uh.
- 4:30Speaker 3: It's like the guy who says I'll gladly pay you
- 4:32Speaker 3: tuesday for hamburger today. It's a lie and they know
- 4:37Speaker 3: it's a lie, but they keep saying it. I've got
- 4:40Speaker 3: to run down our news here, Joel. You have a
- 4:42Speaker 3: good morning, sir. Happy Saturday, too, Happy Saturday. But that's
- 4:46Speaker 3: you know, and that's what we have to watch out for,
- 4:48Speaker 3: is you know, what do you do? Who are you?
- 4:51Speaker 3: That's a big question because one of the things we're
- 4:54Speaker 3: talking about over the past week is is the American
- 4:58Speaker 3: way of life? What is that one? What does that
- 5:00Speaker 3: even mean? But our first things this morning. The man
- 5:05Speaker 3: accused of placing the pipe bombs outside of the DNC
- 5:08Speaker 3: and RNC headquarters in January of twenty twenty one, was
- 5:12Speaker 3: in Federal Court on Friday, while The New York Post
- 5:16Speaker 3: is reporting that a four hour interview included his confession
- 5:22Speaker 3: to the crime. Now that four hour interview in transcript
- 5:25Speaker 3: form was presented to the courts yesterday. Chair Vice Chair
- 5:30Speaker 3: of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Virginia Senator Mark Warner says he,
- 5:37Speaker 3: though pleased that the suspect has been caught, is not
- 5:41Speaker 3: happy with the administration.
- 5:43Speaker 8: It kind of makes me looking at this crowd doing
- 5:46Speaker 8: a victory lab when all the senior FBI officials across
- 5:51Speaker 8: all key divisions have been fired for political purposes. When
- 5:54Speaker 8: in some field.
- 5:55Speaker 9: Office is up to forty five percent of the FBI
- 5:59Speaker 9: officer who were doing things like counter tespionage and cyber
- 6:03Speaker 9: have been assigned to do immigration cases.
- 6:06Speaker 3: Yeah, just why would you do that? President Donald Trump
- 6:10Speaker 3: and the First Lady of Milania welcomed the family of
- 6:13Speaker 3: National Guardsman Andrew Woolf, who was still fighting for his
- 6:16Speaker 3: life in a DC area hospital, to the White House
- 6:19Speaker 3: on Thursday. His partner, specialist Sarah Benkstrom, lost her life
- 6:24Speaker 3: in the attack done by an Afghan national who had
- 6:27Speaker 3: come to the United States under the Operation Allies Welcome campaign.
- 6:33Speaker 3: President Trump announced he's approved manufacturing of what they call
- 6:36Speaker 3: key cars in Japan. These tiny cars will be built
- 6:41Speaker 3: in America. He posted to truth Social. Three hundred cases
- 6:45Speaker 3: of frozen dog food were confiscated and have been recalled
- 6:50Speaker 3: this week by Wisconsin based from Family Foods from the
- 6:54Speaker 3: Bona Hill and Beefy Bowls labels because they contained plastics.
- 7:02Speaker 10: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 7:06Speaker 9: Yes?
- 7:07Speaker 10: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 7:12Speaker 10: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 7:17Speaker 10: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 7:21Speaker 10: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 7:27Speaker 10: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 7:31Speaker 10: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 7:35Speaker 10: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 7:38Speaker 10: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 7:41Speaker 10: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide,
- 7:46Speaker 10: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

- 8:06Speaker 10: one of the few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products
- 8:11Speaker 10: on the market. I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic
- 8:15Speaker 10: diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems to be a
- 8:20Speaker 10: perfect addition to any nutritional program. It makes sense to
- 8:25Speaker 10: me that preventing or reducing inflammation is a key component
- 8:30Speaker 10: to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin
- 8:34Speaker 10: can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties, and research
- 8:40Speaker 10: suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer or at least slow
- 8:44Speaker 10: the spread of cancer, and in many instances, make chemotherapy
- 8:48Speaker 10: more effective. It protects our healthy cells even from radiation.

- 9:58Speaker 12: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
- 10:01Speaker 12: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 12: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 12: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:08Speaker 12: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 12: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 10:15Speaker 12: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 10:17Speaker 12: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 10:21Speaker 12: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 10:23Speaker 12: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 10:25Speaker 12: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 10:29Speaker 12: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 10:32Speaker 12: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 10:35Speaker 12: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
- 10:38Speaker 12: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 10:41Speaker 12: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
- 10:44Speaker 12: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
- 10:46Speaker 12: help those in need. So please join me an American
- 10:49Speaker 12: Humane and supporting our heroic working dogs and all the
- 10:52Speaker 12: amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go to

- 13:47Speaker 3: Thanks to the bombing Alpha that is live radio of
- 13:57Speaker 3: December seventh, nineteen forty one kgU Radio and Honolulu. I
- 14:02Speaker 3: think they're still on the air. They're not a I
- 14:05Speaker 3: don't think we have a home Hawaii affiliate, but if
- 14:09Speaker 3: they are, God bless them. Only live broadcast of the
- 14:13Speaker 3: attack on Pearl Harbor as it was happening there and again.
- 14:19Speaker 3: The anniversary is tomorrow, but I wanted to make the
- 14:22Speaker 3: note of it today. I hope your governors have all
- 14:25Speaker 3: signed flag orders to fly your flags at half staff
- 14:29Speaker 3: tomorrow and will take a moment to remember those four
- 14:33Speaker 3: thousand who lost their lives and the multitude millions more
- 14:38Speaker 3: that lost their lives as the United States entered the
- 14:41Speaker 3: battle against actual fascism. For those who'd like to make
- 14:45Speaker 3: you think that somebody who disagrees with you as a fascist,
- 14:48Speaker 3: oh you have no idea. Matt's hanging on the line
- 14:52Speaker 3: with us at four three four eight eight two four
- 14:55Speaker 3: two one seven. Hey, the rest of you guys, don't
- 14:57Speaker 3: let me forget. I want to talk about this report
- 15:00Speaker 3: that was leaked quote unquote out of the White House
- 15:04Speaker 3: about the President's position on the European Union, speaking of
- 15:08Speaker 3: Pearl Harbor Day. But Matt, thank you for hanging on
- 15:11Speaker 3: the line, sir. How are you doing this Saturday morning?
- 15:14Speaker 7: Oh? I was doing fine until Mark Warner came out
- 15:17Speaker 7: in the air.
- 15:18Speaker 3: He's quickly supplanting Bernie Sanders in your trigger. Yeah.
- 15:25Speaker 7: No, I mean, and I know what you're gonna tell me.
- 15:29Speaker 7: You're gonna say, Matt, calm down, it's just Mark Warner,
- 15:36Speaker 7: the way you would say forget it, Jake, it's Chinatown.
- 15:42Speaker 3: I would never do that to you, because you know,
- 15:45Speaker 3: he likes to tell us how esteemed he is or
- 15:47Speaker 3: that he's getting steamed. Well, I mean what.
- 15:52Speaker 7: I guess where I'm confused is I can't figure out
- 15:57Speaker 7: if this is just a political charade or if he
- 16:02Speaker 7: really is that stupid.
- 16:07Speaker 3: To find stupid before we go to us. Because because
- 16:10Speaker 3: there are educated Aeradite people who have thought themselves into
- 16:16Speaker 3: you know, absolute idiocy out of just overthinking and in
- 16:22Speaker 3: manipulative thought. I think he is he is, as I
- 16:25Speaker 3: said to Joel, you know, in his effort to continue
- 16:28Speaker 3: being a media character creation. Uh, he's got to get
- 16:32Speaker 3: out there and go to the Senate rotunda where these
- 16:36Speaker 3: TV networks all set up and say, hey, anyone want
- 16:39Speaker 3: to hear from the vice chair of the Intel Committee,
- 16:42Speaker 3: because that's what it's what it seems like he's doing.
- 16:44Speaker 10: Now.
- 16:44Speaker 3: He's just walking down the hall in the Rayburn Building saying,
- 16:47Speaker 3: anyone anyone got you know, five minutes for a senator
- 16:51Speaker 3: and he's going on there. He may even be paying
- 16:54Speaker 3: for these spots. I don't know, but his re election
- 16:57Speaker 3: campaign is is it's only gonna get worse as his
- 17:01Speaker 3: reelection campaign ramps up.
- 17:04Speaker 7: Well, I mean, I am impressed with the idea that
- 17:08Speaker 7: the Trump people cannot take a victory lap because it
- 17:15Speaker 7: took them nine months to find this guy after they
- 17:21Speaker 7: had fired all of these people or transferred them. Now
- 17:25Speaker 7: are these people that were fired and transferred the ones
- 17:30Speaker 7: that couldn't find this guy for four years?
- 17:36Speaker 3: Now? Now, see, this is why you're not a network
- 17:39Speaker 3: news reporter for MS now because you wouldn't get the
- 17:46Speaker 3: interview with Senator Wonder if you ask those kind of questions.
- 17:49Speaker 3: Trust me, he used to invite me into his press
- 17:52Speaker 3: gaggles and then he stopped because I would ask questions
- 17:56Speaker 3: like this, My gosh, now he did. To be fair,
- 18:00Speaker 3: the clip we have is a little misrepresentative because he
- 18:02Speaker 3: does the sentence right before the clip we play. He says, well,
- 18:07Speaker 3: while I'm happy that we caught the guy, so we
- 18:13Speaker 3: should give him the gravitas for at least acknowledging that
- 18:16Speaker 3: it's good that we caught the guy. But it's I mean,
- 18:20Speaker 3: I've I've.
- 18:23Speaker 7: I think I've worked my way around to the idea
- 18:28Speaker 7: that as much as the FBI needs reform, it is
- 18:35Speaker 7: probably no longer salvagible. It is probably been so corrupted
- 18:43Speaker 7: by politics. And I'm not just talking James call me.
- 18:47Speaker 7: I mean, we can go back to Jay Edgar Hoover.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Well, so how do we fix this? This is a
- 18:54Speaker 3: bigger question. And you're a thoughtful man who's you know,
- 18:57Speaker 3: have enough India ink under his fingernails to have seen
- 19:00Speaker 3: enough law enforcement. I'm a big fan of constitutional officers.
- 19:04Speaker 3: I'm a fan of elected sheriffs because they're responsible to
- 19:09Speaker 3: the people, but they're not immune from corruption. So how
- 19:13Speaker 3: do we fix a law enforcement department that is a
- 19:20Speaker 3: beholds you know, it's careers to the tether of an
- 19:25Speaker 3: elected official that appointed them. You know, how do how
- 19:30Speaker 3: do we fix this. I have some thoughts, but I'm
- 19:33Speaker 3: curious your thought on the idea of how would you
- 19:36Speaker 3: how would you come up with a better one than
- 19:38Speaker 3: having the mayor or the governor or the president appoint
- 19:41Speaker 3: the head of the law enforcement bureau and then you know,
- 19:45Speaker 3: just hope that they're going to follow the law.
- 19:49Speaker 7: Well, as as you noted, any human institution is corruptible
- 19:56Speaker 7: because it's filled with humans who are corrupt. But as
- 20:02Speaker 7: has been discussed at previous times on this program, I
- 20:08Speaker 7: think the biggest part of the problem is not the
- 20:14Speaker 7: FBI or the state police or the local sheriff as
- 20:20Speaker 7: much as it is the politicians who create the laws. Well,
- 20:27Speaker 7: there was a Roman philosopher who once said, the more
- 20:32Speaker 7: laws a society has, the more corrupt that society. I
- 20:38Speaker 7: think what we need to do is get ourselves away
- 20:43Speaker 7: from this whole three felonies a day idea and just
- 20:50Speaker 7: simplify the society.
- 20:53Speaker 3: Oh yeah, sure, and you're talking about Tacticus or tactic
- 20:57Speaker 3: Us or Tactius Tacitus. I was seeing a see that
- 21:03Speaker 3: wasn't there there, But it is what I describe as
- 21:09Speaker 3: this black hole of law. You know, they keep writing
- 21:12Speaker 3: a law they want to do something, so they write
- 21:15Speaker 3: a law that permits it or circumvents a law that
- 21:18Speaker 3: prohibits it, and we've piled them onto each other to
- 21:21Speaker 3: this point where there's such a density of law that
- 21:25Speaker 3: justice itself cannot escape anymore. It's like the intergalactic black hole.
- 21:31Speaker 3: It sucks everything in its gravity is so big. And
- 21:34Speaker 3: that's one of the things I mean, because you know,
- 21:36Speaker 3: the Constitution doesn't even provide for this kind of interstate
- 21:40Speaker 3: law enforcement anyway. But the FBI's existence, to me, Matt,
- 21:46Speaker 3: in a lot of ways, is indicative of what I've
- 21:49Speaker 3: talked about, which is the perversion of the commerce clause
- 21:53Speaker 3: of the US Constitution, where the federal government has interpreted
- 21:57Speaker 3: it to mean it can regulate everything if it goes
- 22:00Speaker 3: on in a state.

- 23:10Speaker 5: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
- 23:14Speaker 5: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
- 23:16Speaker 5: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
- 23:20Speaker 5: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
- 23:23Speaker 5: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
- 23:26Speaker 5: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
- 23:29Speaker 5: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
- 23:31Speaker 5: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too.
- 23:35Speaker 5: The vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
- 23:38Speaker 5: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
- 23:40Speaker 5: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
- 23:44Speaker 5: your fuel choices around say every third tank full, you
- 23:46Speaker 5: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
- 23:50Speaker 5: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
- 23:53Speaker 5: Just don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them

- 24:03Speaker 10: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 24:12Speaker 10: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:41Speaker 10: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 10: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:18Speaker 3: B FB I QM production, Oh wish right, you know
- 28:25Speaker 3: where's that from? Symbolist and we need it. Matt was
- 28:29Speaker 3: on the phone, was talking about.
- 28:33Speaker 24: Stephen Brooks with guest stars Jack Plugman, Brett Summers. The
- 28:42Speaker 24: night's episode image in a correct mirror.
- 28:47Speaker 3: When the TV was the TV right? What are the
- 28:51Speaker 3: fun little asides? And I appreciated this. In Quentin Tarantino's
- 28:56Speaker 3: Hollywood Movie with Brad Pitt and Leo DiCaprio, Leo DiCaprio's
- 29:03Speaker 3: character is like this, this fifties, big fifties TV star
- 29:07Speaker 3: and it's the seventies now and he's relegated to doing
- 29:11Speaker 3: spots on shows like Mannix and the FBI. It's a
- 29:15Speaker 3: wonderful just a little aside, and he's like, but I
- 29:17Speaker 3: was a big start. He's just he's the play and
- 29:20Speaker 3: the bad guy on Hawaii five Ozho and things like that.
- 29:24Speaker 3: But Matt and I had a great point and it
- 29:27Speaker 3: was just following up on this, this idea of just
- 29:32Speaker 3: and you know, when when you're looking at the investigative
- 29:35Speaker 3: state and I feel weird you have to say this,
- 29:38Speaker 3: but you know, there are men and women who want
- 29:40Speaker 3: to do exactly what we ask, which is go out
- 29:43Speaker 3: and find the SOB that has violated somebody else's rights.
- 29:47Speaker 3: And then they once they come with the documentation jumping
- 29:51Speaker 3: off Mark Warner's complaints about the FBI being used to, oh,
- 29:55Speaker 3: I don't know, investigate and find people who aren't citizens
- 29:58Speaker 3: in the United States taking my right to And funny enough,
- 30:02Speaker 3: the people who are mad about the FBI going to
- 30:04Speaker 3: look for illegals who are in the country taking my
- 30:08Speaker 3: you know, taking a job from somebody who's a citizen
- 30:11Speaker 3: in the United States. Is these are always the same
- 30:13Speaker 3: ones who will go out there and say you have
- 30:16Speaker 3: a right to a job, except for the ones that
- 30:19Speaker 3: we're paying half your wages to an illegal. But you
- 30:23Speaker 3: had another thought, Matt, Yeah.
- 30:27Speaker 2: And.
- 30:29Speaker 7: I think, I mean, I think one of the problems
- 30:33Speaker 7: we're dealing with, one of the the great problems of humankind,
- 30:39Speaker 7: is that for the Bill of Rights to work, you
- 30:44Speaker 7: need the Ten Commandments.
- 30:46Speaker 3: Yeah, because it presumes that we know what is right
- 30:50Speaker 3: and wrong, that we don't need a law telling us
- 30:53Speaker 3: not to lie because eternal damnation waits on us if
- 30:56Speaker 3: we bear false witness against our neighbors.
- 30:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:00Speaker 7: And and there there is this whole concept in the
- 31:03Speaker 7: Judeo Christian tradition of you don't do this because you're
- 31:09Speaker 7: gonna piss off God.
- 31:11Speaker 3: Right. It has nothing to do with what your lawyer
- 31:14Speaker 3: can get you out of.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Yeah, But here's the thing, and we do some Bruce
- 31:18Speaker 3: Cutler can handle. Well, if anyone can. Kids, kids, google
- 31:24Speaker 3: Bruce Cutler and be prepared for what you see in
- 31:29Speaker 3: how many mob movies have depicted a mob lawyer?
- 31:33Speaker 15: Uh?
- 31:33Speaker 3: And it has all been just derivative of Bruce Cutler.
- 31:36Speaker 3: But Matt, my point on this is yes, we do
- 31:39Speaker 3: need earthly laws because sometimes your violation of God's covenant
- 31:45Speaker 3: leaves victims in your wake. So we do need earthly
- 31:49Speaker 3: laws that establish punishments for when somebody bears false witness
- 31:54Speaker 3: against the neighbor. But what we have now are a
- 31:57Speaker 3: judicial system that has all allowed for interpretation, and therefore
- 32:04Speaker 3: we can have a prosecutor, a depart us attorney, a
- 32:09Speaker 3: district attorney, at commonwealth's attorney say ah, just don't think
- 32:12Speaker 3: this riot raises to the level of a crime, and
- 32:16Speaker 3: they use this judicial interpretation to let people go when
- 32:25Speaker 3: everyone else is saying, well why are they being let go?
- 32:27Speaker 3: And we never find out what information told this district
- 32:32Speaker 3: attorney that it wasn't there. Sometimes, like you know the
- 32:35Speaker 3: guys here in Charlottesville, they will announce, well, the kid
- 32:38Speaker 3: was poor and therefore he stole a bunch of stuff
- 32:41Speaker 3: from you know, you know, five below, and so we're
- 32:44Speaker 3: not going to prosecute him because we want to fight
- 32:46Speaker 3: the school to prison pipeline and all the other pablem
- 32:49Speaker 3: that somebody wants to be a state senator someday wants
- 32:52Speaker 3: to say. But this idea that if you if you're
- 32:56Speaker 3: charged with a crime. You know, you you face that crime.
- 33:01Speaker 3: And we can't just charge people we don't like, because
- 33:05Speaker 3: we charge the people we don't like, and we don't
- 33:07Speaker 3: charge the people who've actually wronged neighbors in the community.
- 33:12Speaker 7: Well, we have an unbalanced system where it is a
- 33:20Speaker 7: felony for you or I to lie to an FBI agent,
- 33:25Speaker 7: But if an FBI agent lies to us, let's just
- 33:28Speaker 7: standard operating procedure.
- 33:31Speaker 3: Right, we were doing investigations, they're good stuff. Is always
- 33:35Speaker 3: my go ahead, finish up. What this does is.
- 33:39Speaker 7: This makes the people in the country subjects instead of citizens.
- 33:48Speaker 3: And that's I think what a lot of people. I
- 33:49Speaker 3: think Democrats and Republicans like you know, feel that way
- 33:53Speaker 3: in some ways. But it comes down to what is
- 33:55Speaker 3: who's the guy or someday gal in the White House?
- 33:59Speaker 3: And and you know, are they doing the things that I
- 34:02Speaker 3: elected them to do for me? There are sports strik
- 34:07Speaker 3: mac McDonald is a big college football weekend and already
- 34:13Speaker 3: had a whole bunch of the you know, the Sun
- 34:17Speaker 3: Belt and the the was it Tulane won their conference championship.
- 34:21Speaker 3: James Madison, all these schools that they claim they know
- 34:25Speaker 3: Tulane is going to be even though they're not as
- 34:27Speaker 3: high ranked as James Madison, their victory means James Madison
- 34:31Speaker 3: is out of the playoffs and all of that playoffs.
- 34:34Speaker 3: But Mac kind of breaks it all down for us
- 34:38Speaker 3: this morning from his desk at the Dan Patrick School
- 34:42Speaker 3: of sportscast jambiship weekend.
- 34:44Speaker 25: Enough of trip down memory lane, a couple of things
- 34:47Speaker 25: for you as we you know, get that there's gonna
- 34:50Speaker 25: be chaos at some point this weekend, and then when
- 34:52Speaker 25: the committee goes in Sunday and tries to put the
- 34:55Speaker 25: bracket together. The number today for UVA. I'll talk about
- 34:59Speaker 25: it next hour, but the number for today is fifty
- 35:01Speaker 25: seven percent of Virginia beats Duke.
- 35:04Speaker 3: They're going to be in.
- 35:05Speaker 25: There's another conference champion slot that they're looking at. Byu
- 35:09Speaker 25: needs to try to hold serve. See the Alabama Georgia
- 35:12Speaker 25: game means nothing. The Indiana Ohio State game, Yeah, it's
- 35:16Speaker 25: going to be made for TV, but you know a
- 35:18Speaker 25: lot of storylines with Indiana, of course. But Kirby Smart,
- 35:22Speaker 25: who has been really you know, a saving disciple, believes
- 35:25Speaker 25: in the process and also believes in young guys.
- 35:28Speaker 3: He played a lot of young players early.
- 35:32Speaker 25: This year to get them the experience in building for
- 35:34Speaker 25: this moment. He goes, why, well, you know, when ask
- 35:37Speaker 25: the question, you prepare for moments like this.
- 35:40Speaker 26: Played a clip from a former coach who talked about
- 35:43Speaker 26: guys not being prepared and maybe not preparing the right way.
- 35:47Speaker 26: And these kids, whether they're freshman or sophomores, you know
- 35:51Speaker 26: a lot. They're in a long season. You know, we've
- 35:53Speaker 26: challenged them, and now it's time to reap some of
- 35:56Speaker 26: the rewards from guys having a step up and play,
- 35:59Speaker 26: from different guys being injured, different guys being out.
- 36:01Speaker 3: You just don't know when your number is going to
- 36:03Speaker 3: be called.
- 36:03Speaker 25: Yeah, so you know preparation of course, you know, Saman's
- 36:06Speaker 25: talk preparation till and everybody talks, you know, preparation, Yes,
- 36:10Speaker 25: Jo Thomas H.
- 36:11Speaker 3: Yeah. Question question when when did coaches start using talk
- 36:15Speaker 3: radio speak? Play the clip of the you know, play
- 36:18Speaker 3: play clip forty two please.
- 36:20Speaker 25: You yeah, Ted now they're no, they're doing Ted talks now,
- 36:25Speaker 25: and uh, you know, naturally, I think it's always I
- 36:28Speaker 25: call him os. But you know, the mentalist is showing
- 36:30Speaker 25: up like everywhere, and you know, nail and pin codes
- 36:34Speaker 25: and their birth dates and.
- 36:35Speaker 3: Yeah, oh I hear yes.
- 36:37Speaker 25: But anyway, so that I mean because if Alabama loses,
- 36:42Speaker 25: is there a chance that Alabama could not get in
- 36:44Speaker 25: the playoff?
- 36:45Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 36:46Speaker 25: Right, And so now the conspiracy theory is that, uh,
- 36:50Speaker 25: the ACC is going to do everything. So if if
- 36:52Speaker 25: Duke has like twelve pass interference calls tomorrow night, you know,
- 36:57Speaker 25: if they get flagged twelve times for rough, you know,
- 37:01Speaker 25: get ready for conspiracy on Sunday saying.
- 37:03Speaker 3: That Virginia had to get in or the ACC.
- 37:06Speaker 25: Doesn't have it and Miami is on the outside looking in.
- 37:08Speaker 25: They still think that Miami might you know, have a shot.
- 37:11Speaker 25: But here here was a great story that Tony told
- 37:13Speaker 25: this week. Tony Elliott, I'm talking about, by the.
- 37:16Speaker 3: Way, ACC Coach of the Year, by the way, yeah,
- 37:19Speaker 3: ACC Coach of the Year exactly.
- 37:21Speaker 25: Going and going back to the Florida State game which
- 37:24Speaker 25: launched the season. Really Florida State was ranked, I think
- 37:27Speaker 25: they were in the top five, went the fourth or
- 37:29Speaker 25: something like that.
- 37:29Speaker 3: Uv A pulls off the upset, the rush of the
- 37:32Speaker 3: crowd and everything.
- 37:33Speaker 25: Well, UVA has a when they come into their stadium,
- 37:36Speaker 25: they walk down the steps and the defense locks arms
- 37:39Speaker 25: and they walked away to the field well, Florida State
- 37:42Speaker 25: had to wait in the tunnel.
- 37:43Speaker 3: Before uv A got done walking the field.
- 37:46Speaker 25: You know, Florida State wanted to hit the field, but
- 37:48Speaker 25: so now Tony said that his guys, so Florida State's taunting,
- 37:52Speaker 25: they're yelling, hey, b Well Tony said that he watched
- 37:57Speaker 25: his defense.
- 37:58Speaker 3: He goes nobody flinched. And that's how you know, can
- 38:01Speaker 3: you believe?
- 38:02Speaker 27: With all the recent violent protests, looting, and destruction, some
- 38:06Speaker 27: areas are considering either defunding or abolishing the police. At
- 38:11Speaker 27: a time when America's neighborhoods need the protection of police
- 38:14Speaker 27: the most, some elected officials would rather create.
- 38:17Speaker 1: More chaos by playing politics.

- 40:57Speaker 13: Exercise is hard, so was maintained a healthy diet. Of course,
- 41:03Speaker 13: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 13: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 13: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 13: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 13: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 41:24Speaker 13: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 13: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 13: because not enough are willing to change you can stop

- 44:12Speaker 1: The first Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Chunk
- 44:16Speaker 1: Media Network, All natural and free of artificial intelligence?
- 44:30Speaker 3: Are you ever tuned in this morning? That was your
- 44:41Speaker 3: target audience? And who's awake right now? As a matter
- 44:44Speaker 3: of fact, I'll take people who are asleep in their
- 44:46Speaker 3: clock radio has gone off as well, or a smartphone
- 44:49Speaker 3: app that's supposed to be waking them up for Saturday
- 44:51Speaker 3: morning when they've got stuff to do. So many people
- 44:55Speaker 3: text message came in last week. We were talking about
- 44:58Speaker 3: the business model of this pro program. Why we do
- 45:00Speaker 3: it live, as Bill O'Reilly says, and there's a deeper
- 45:04Speaker 3: reason we use Bill in that clip. And it's not
- 45:07Speaker 3: just because of that. But much of what's happened to
- 45:09Speaker 3: me over the last two years started when I watched
- 45:13Speaker 3: Tucker Carlson interview Bill O'Reilly. I know that sounds vapid
- 45:17Speaker 3: and shallow, but sometimes we all and I think, if
- 45:20Speaker 3: you think about it, we all have those moments of clarity.
- 45:23Speaker 3: First one in my life really came when I was told,
- 45:27Speaker 3: much like Russ Vote was told during the government shut
- 45:30Speaker 3: down deals, that he didn't have the authority to fire anyone,
- 45:34Speaker 3: but I was still going to be considered the manager
- 45:36Speaker 3: of the restaurant I was running. I'm like, well, what's
- 45:39Speaker 3: my authority here? Much like a school teacher these days
- 45:42Speaker 3: finds themselves incapable of disciplining a kid who's disrupting the class,
- 45:53Speaker 3: but the text message last week said Joe, don't you
- 45:57Speaker 3: think it's a bad sign that so many of us
- 45:59Speaker 3: have to work on Saturday? Economically speaking, Gina, I appreciate
- 46:05Speaker 3: the text message, and I appreciate you listening up there
- 46:08Speaker 3: at Lowell, But I don't know if working is a
- 46:13Speaker 3: bad sign. Economically, we have grown a custom, as Jefferson said,
- 46:19Speaker 3: about you know things that you know, we fall prey to.
- 46:22Speaker 3: We've grown accustomed to the idea of a five day
- 46:25Speaker 3: work week with you know, over time for this, and
- 46:29Speaker 3: you know, every everything is sort of settled out, and
- 46:32Speaker 3: you know, you know, and everything's got a surety to it,
- 46:35Speaker 3: and we trade the volatility of you know, oh hey,
- 46:40Speaker 3: I can work and make extra money doing this for people,
- 46:43Speaker 3: or I can go do this and freelance and do that,
- 46:46Speaker 3: and maybe I can do some people's taxes and I
- 46:48Speaker 3: can make some extra money. And I think that that's
- 46:54Speaker 3: a much more American approach. Look at all the people
- 46:57Speaker 3: you know who managed to find ways to survive even
- 47:00Speaker 3: the Great Depression. You think we've got it bad now.
- 47:05Speaker 3: So I think the human spirit both is a pre
- 47:10Speaker 3: hardwired for liberty and b is also hardwired to work.
- 47:17Speaker 3: And we want to do things, and especially when we
- 47:19Speaker 3: want to do things for other people. And I think
- 47:23Speaker 3: that that is laudable, though sometimes easily manipulatable by the
- 47:28Speaker 3: folks who want to hold offices of power. Quick text
- 47:32Speaker 3: message here. Been thinking lately about motive. Seems anytime you
- 47:37Speaker 3: hear of a big arrest, recently the J six bomber,
- 47:41Speaker 3: the pundance to cry what we need to know is
- 47:43Speaker 3: the motive of the crime. I think that should be
- 47:45Speaker 3: irrelevant until guilt has decided. Then motive is considered in sentencing.
- 47:50Speaker 3: If found guilty, what do you think? Well? And I
- 47:53Speaker 3: certainly think that that is one of the things Matt
- 47:55Speaker 3: and I were just talking about, is that you know,
- 47:58Speaker 3: we're saying, well, why did you do it? Because we've
- 48:02Speaker 3: been sold this anti hero revolutionary idea that you know
- 48:08Speaker 3: that doing something because you know it fights authority or
- 48:13Speaker 3: whatever is laudable simply in its efforts. And this is
- 48:18Speaker 3: why why is such an important word, not only in
- 48:21Speaker 3: terms of pushing back on the authoritarians when they say
- 48:25Speaker 3: you must shut down your business. Why because COVID? Why
- 48:29Speaker 3: are we scared of COVID because we said be scared
- 48:32Speaker 3: of COVID. Darn it, you know, why must I take
- 48:35Speaker 3: this shot because we said so, you know, and all
- 48:37Speaker 3: these politicians and these office holders have become nothing more
- 48:41Speaker 3: than the parents of a three year old because I
- 48:43Speaker 3: said so, that's why, and then they send the FBI
- 48:47Speaker 3: to interview you there. So I think there are places
- 48:52Speaker 3: where motive is important, just like a dissenting opinion from
- 48:57Speaker 3: the Supreme Court is important. But all the time time, no,
- 49:00Speaker 3: I don't think it is. There follow up always great
- 49:03Speaker 3: thought provoking nuggets from Matt, doctor Clark and you. Well,
- 49:07Speaker 3: that's why we do it here, and we keep the
- 49:09Speaker 3: phones open at four three four eight eight two four
- 49:12Speaker 3: two one seven. I appreciate the text messages to that
- 49:15Speaker 3: number as well. Good morning, You're on the air with Joe.
- 49:18Speaker 3: First thing this morning. Who's this.
- 49:21Speaker 7: Joe?
- 49:21Speaker 28: It's Clark and I hate the double dip. But the
- 49:25Speaker 28: newsbreak guy keeps telling me that Brian Cole Junior believes
- 49:31Speaker 28: the twenty twenty election was stolen?
- 49:34Speaker 3: Is that is that the narrative they're selling now? Is it? Yes?
- 49:37Speaker 28: Yes, Now I'm gonna break out my ropper room lady
- 49:41Speaker 28: magic mirror, Joe, and I'm gonna ask a question here,
- 49:44Speaker 28: show a hands, how many people don't think twenty twenty
- 49:49Speaker 28: was stolen.
- 49:51Speaker 3: I did see a story early this morning, and.
- 49:53Speaker 28: Joe either I got a malfunctioning magic mirror or we're
- 49:59Speaker 28: pretty much all on board with that now.
- 50:01Speaker 3: But here's the thing, And I think a lot of Democrats.
- 50:04Speaker 3: I think a lot of Democrats you know, are still there.
- 50:07Speaker 3: You know, when when they start talking about the seven
- 50:09Speaker 3: you know, million mystery votes that vanished. Either the Democrats say, well,
- 50:15Speaker 3: that's proof the Republicans did vote suppression before and after
- 50:19Speaker 3: twenty twenty, and the Republicans are saying it because you
- 50:21Speaker 3: put the steal in. But here's here's the bigger question.
- 50:25Speaker 3: Because I did see this story right before we came
- 50:27Speaker 3: on the air this morning, a story that said that
- 50:31Speaker 3: a report and unnamed sources said he was depressed after
- 50:36Speaker 3: the results of the twenty twenty election. They're trying to
- 50:39Speaker 3: paint this kid as a Trump guy. They're trying to
- 50:44Speaker 3: make him maga if they can, and at the same
- 50:49Speaker 3: time make him, you know, a candidate for public public
- 50:56Speaker 3: institution by you know, inferring. Well, you know, his grandma
- 51:00Speaker 3: says he's on the on the borderline of autistic. Uh,
- 51:04Speaker 3: you know, what does that even mean? I mean, I
- 51:06Speaker 3: know kids who are considered on the spectrum who are
- 51:08Speaker 3: wildly prosperous, uh and and you know, doing everything that
- 51:13Speaker 3: they love, and they were diagnosed at some point as
- 51:16Speaker 3: being on the spectrum. And we've extended the spectrum of
- 51:20Speaker 3: of autism wider and wider and wider, it seems every
- 51:24Speaker 3: five years or so. But then Grandma says, well, we
- 51:28Speaker 3: think he was on the borderline of maybe being So
- 51:31Speaker 3: we've got this massive spectrum of what we consider autistic
- 51:35Speaker 3: and then he's not even on it, But Grandma says,
- 51:38Speaker 3: we thought he might be close to it. I mean,
- 51:40Speaker 3: come on, guys, let's you know, this is just what
- 51:42Speaker 3: the text message was about. The guy put bombs outside
- 51:46Speaker 3: of the building. Why are you saying he was manipulated
- 51:49Speaker 3: by somebody? Is there a mister big that he can
- 51:52Speaker 3: give up? That would be interesting for me, wouldn't it,
- 51:54Speaker 3: Doctor Clark?
- 51:56Speaker 28: That would be interesting, Joe, Technically, Lindes Winner Star does
- 52:00Speaker 28: that December the twenty first.
- 52:02Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I believe that is the winter. Soe still fall?
- 52:06Speaker 28: This is still fall. Well, he's not a trunk guy, Joe,
- 52:12Speaker 28: He's a fall guy.
- 52:15Speaker 3: Oh. I didn't even see that coming. I apologize to everyone.
- 52:18Speaker 3: I did not see that coming. But that's good. That's good.
- 52:20Speaker 3: You know what. Here at Callahan's Cross Time Saloon, everyone
- 52:24Speaker 3: has to take a shot from their shot glass and

- 52:37Speaker 3: know you know four three four eight eight two four
- 52:40Speaker 3: two one seven for phone numbers. Oh this this is
- 52:43Speaker 3: a good text message, Joe. These folks that the previous
- 52:46Speaker 3: text references are they characters or callers? You know? It's true.
- 52:52Speaker 18: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
- 52:55Speaker 18: to think about what matters most when it comes to
