• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd Starts that.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: This American.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: Well, happy Monday to you America. Welcome everybody. This is
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: the Todd Starts Radio Show. What an honor to have
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: you with us today, broadcasting border to border, coast to
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: coast across the fruited Plain. Well we've got we've got
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: a lot of a lot to talk about today. Wow.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: So this.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Allie Velshie. I'm not a big fan of MS now
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: PMS now, never have been. And ali Velshie is making
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: headlines because of something you said about America. And you know,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: one of the things that really bothers me is all
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: of the folks out there that are taking cheap shots
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: at our great nation, that are that are attacking the
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: America two fifty celebration. As a matter of fact, ali
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: velshe went on TV and said he was conflicted about
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: all of this. I want you to listen to what
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: he had to say.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: In one month, America will mark the two hundred and
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: fiftieth anniversary of its founding.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: Like previous anniversaries, there is a deep.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Unease about this.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: I feel a deep unease about the celebrations to which
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: I have invited to mark the two hundred and fiftieth
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: anniversary of our so called democracy.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Yes, so he's feeling very conflicted. He has great, deep
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: unease about celebrating the land of the free and the
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: home of the brave. This one Ali Velshet. And here's
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: what you may not know about this guy though, for
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: those of you who do not watch PMS now, which
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: is pretty much most of the country, this guy is
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: actually a naturalized citizen. He was born in Kenya, raised
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: in Canada, and then in twenty fifteen, so he's barely
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: he's barely been an American citizen for what a decade,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: and now here he is cramping all over our country. Now,
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: we welcome this guy into the nation, and by all measures,
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: he is apparently living the American dream. We did a
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: little bit of research here on the show before we
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: started the program today, and apparently this guy is worth
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: as much as five million dollars. You really think that
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: would have happened, that this guy would have still been
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: living in in Kenya. No, he would have been living
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: in a hunt or what about Canada? You think he
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: really would have been making five million dollars a year
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: living in Canada. I don't think so. But again, as
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: much as ali Velshi hates our nation and he hates
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: our nation, he doesn't like us. He's coming here and
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: he's he's actually worse than the ily eagles because he
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: is only taking from us. That's all. That's all this
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: is to him. You know, when there was a time
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: in American history when people, you know, came to this country,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: the immigrants, they came here to find a better life,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: but they also wanted to embrace the American ideas and ideals.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: I know that's what my great grandfather did when he
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: came to this country. Fled he fled Germany after World
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: War One and they came to this country and they
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: learned the language. As a matter of fact, by grandfather
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: when he turned eighteen years old, joined the military fault
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: in World War Two, was a glider pilot. Our family
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: did our part, just like many many other immigrant families,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: and they went out there and they lived their lives,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and they loved this country and they were grateful for
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: everything they had, and they tried to they tried to
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: assimilate into the culture. And that's what generations of immigrant
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: families have done in this country until well over the
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: past two decades, and now we have seen what a
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: very shocking thing, which is the Balkanization of the United
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: States of America. And this is playing out especially now
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: in the Islamist communities where if you live in a
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: town or community and that community the majority of the
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: people in that community are in fact Muslim, you got
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: big problems on your hands, big problems. And that's because
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: these folks are no longer assimilating. They want to bring
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: their country and they want to bring the evil that
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: they were fleeing, and they want to insert it here
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: into America. That's not what the great American melting pot
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: is all about. They're not melting anymore. So now you
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: have these communities that are predominantly Somali, you have a
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Kenyan neighborhoods, and it goes on and on and on.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: But again, you think Ali Velshi, you think he's gonna move,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: You think he's gonna go back to I know he
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: hates our country. Do you think he's really going to move? No,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: of course not, and you know why because he knows
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: that if he was in Kenya, there's no way he
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: would ever be able to make five million dollars and
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: live the lifestyle that he lives now. He's living the
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: good life, and that's why he can sit there every
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: now in ms now and crap all over America. And
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: it just seems to me that on the fourth of July,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: while Americans are out there, I don't know, toasting our
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: founding fathers and enjoying what the burghers and the hot
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: dogs and the fireworks and the marching bands with the
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: SUSA and the parades, maybe just maybe all of these
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: aggrieved immigrants like Ali Velshi and ilhan Omar Rashida Talib
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: and all the others, maybe they ought to just shut
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: up and try to show a little bit of gratitude.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: And if they can't do that, then you know, so
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: what delta is ready when you are, and I'm sure
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: you'll be able to book a one way ticket back
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: to whatever third world hell hole you came from in
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: the first place. But that's just my opinion. Nine oh
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six is our
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: nine two six. By the way, tomorrow is election Day
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: and it is going to be wild in California and
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: we're going to get into that a little bit later
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: on with Wendy Patrick, who is going to drum By.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: She is an expert on all things California, and Wendy
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: has been following the gubernatorial race as well as the
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: mayoral race, and Spencer Prant, by the way, is actually
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: doing quite well in the polls, so we're gonna we're
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: gonna share the latest polling data there. And he was
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: also on Bill Maher's show, and I was glad to
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: see that. We're also following developments out of Iran, and
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: the President is really upset at anybody who doesn't appreciate
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: what he's trying to do. The problem is, nobody really
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: knows what he's trying to do, right, So I don't
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: know what we're waiting. I really don't. At this point.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: The President has already been justified many times over. The
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: President has been justified in going in and obliterating the Iranians,
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: which I thought that was the plan all along. But
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: the President is now very upset at what he's called
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: the Democrats and all of the Republicans who are complaining
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: about this war. Now, look, I'm not complaining about the war.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: What I'm complaining about is the lack of communication. What
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: exactly are we over there for? What is the end game?
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Because right now it's just ceasefire after ceasefire after ceasefire,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: and Iran keeps breaking the ceasefire, and the latest from
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: about an hour ago, Iran is now halting its indirect
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: talks with US negotiators to protest IS attacks on Hesbalah
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: and Lebanon. It's a big mess, is what. It is
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: a big mess. And let me just tell you if
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: the United States, if we were able to just we
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: need to go in there, and what was the original idea?
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: I think the original I'm trying to go back. There
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: have been so many iterations here, but I believe originally
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: we were going in to completely eliminate their nuclear program.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: So can we just do that and then just get out?
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, if regime change is not on the table here,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: which they told us originally, regime change was never on
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: the table. So if that's really it, then just go
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: in there, obliterate the nuclear program, and get out. Gas
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: prices go back down, grocery prices will start dropping. And
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you, what will be a very good November
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: for Republicans could very well be an incredibly great November
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: for Republicans because the Democrats are in a tailspin right now.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Just a few moments ago, this in from the Persian Gulf.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Am a Panama flagged trade vessel attacked in the Persian Gulf,
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: suffered a large explosion. This is according to the British
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Maritime Trade Organization. They say the vessel was hit with
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: a projectile on its starboard side. No word on who
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: might have done that, but I think we're gonna all
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: take a wild guess. So anyway, concerns you might have
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: about Iran, We understand that the US intercepted two Iranian
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: ballistic missiles over Kuwait, which is great news. But again,
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: what are we doing here? This is supposed to be
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: a ceasefire, So we're we're gonna talk about this. Open
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: to the phone lines today again. Our telephone number nine
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. That's
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: This is the Todd Starns Show.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: Hey guys, quick, heads up, this is actually a big one.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: We're saying goodbye to something that's helped thousands of families
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: over the U years, the Patriot Power Generator, one of
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: the best selling solar generators of twenty twenty five is
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: officially being retired, and the reason they've just released something
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: even better. It's called the Patriot Power Generator two two
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: zero zero X and this is their most powerful model yet.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: It's built for real life situations, storms, outages, emergencies when
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: you need power the most. To launch it, they're doing
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: something pretty crazy right now. You can get five hundred
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: dollars off the generator. Plus they're including two free solar panels,
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: so you can double your charging power right out of
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: the box. They're also throwing in a heavy duty roll
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: in go kart, an extended three year warranty, and if
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: you're a senior or a veteran, you can save an
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: additional two hundred dollars. And here's the part that really
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: stands out, because they offer a payment plan. You can
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: get started today for just two hundred ninety nine dollars
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: and its ships as soon as tomorrow. But this is
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: a limited launch offer. It's first come, first served, and
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: these kinds of deals don't stick around, especially with how
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: unpredictable power outages have been lately. So if you've ever
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: thought about having backup power for your home, now's the
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: time to do it. Stay safe, stay prepared, and don't
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: wait until the lights go out. Go to Starnsprepper dot
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: com right now to take advantage of this limited time offer.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back everybody. This is the Todd Starns
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: Radio Show. Great to have your with us. So over
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the weekend, Jackson Dart It comes out, and man, this
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: guy just a good he's a good guy, comes from Utah,
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: he's one of the well, he's a Mormon and family
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: values the whole nine yards. So this poor guy was
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: invited to introduce President Trump at some sort of a
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: rally and event and it was something very innocuous, and
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: so Jackson Dark gets up there and the President was
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: very thankful and said some nice things about him, and
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: all you know what is broken loaders. So now you
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: have the NFL coming after this guy, and it's ugly.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: His own class, his own teammates rather are coming out
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: against him as a matter of fact, and the sports
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: world they can't stand this guy at all. As a
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: matter of fact. Here is Abdul Carter who plays for
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: the Giants. Cut number seven plays.
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: So first off, I'm going to say that some things
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: are bigger than football and This is one of those things.
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: Jackson is one of our leaders. He's the face of
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: our franchise. He not only represents himself and what he does,
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: but he represents all of us. And that goes for
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: anybody who wears a Giant's uniform. But if he chooses
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: to allow himself with a man like President Trump, it's
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: my responsibility based on what I believe and what I
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: stand on. It's not only should my teammates that I'm
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: against that, but to show the world. And that doesn't
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: mean that we have to spread hate. It doesn't mean
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: that me and Jackson hate each other.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: We have beef.
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: I sit next to Jackson every day every team meeting.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: We close, we talk, you know. We just as long
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: as we make sure we got the same goal as
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: a team, and our goals in line whish they do.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: And I feel like that's all that matters. So I
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: just want to move past this.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: And yet I said, no, it's not of it, and
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: you know, people are saying, oh, well, Jackson Dart and
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: he used to apologize. What does he need to apologize for?
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Exactly what does he need to apologize for? He was
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: asked to introduce the President of the United States, and
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: this young man did exactly as he was asked to do.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: So what is there to apologize for. No one's ever
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: really stopped to answer that question. So here's what gets
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: me about this guy, Abdul Carter, who's with the New
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: York Giants. So this guy is nothing more than a
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: raging hypocrite. And I say that because he is a
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: huge fan of Lawrence Carter. Now, Lawrence Carter is what
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: the Hall of Famer New York Giants and they actually
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: as a rookie, abduall asked the Giants if the team
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: would be willing to unretire the number fifty six jersey
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: so that he could wear that in honor of his hero,
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Lawrence Taylor. Lawrence Taylor is a big Trump guy. He's
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: a Trump supporter. So my question now is to Abdul Our, right,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: are you gonna hold Lawrence Taylor to that same standard
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: you're holding to Jackson dart Well all, you know, what
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: is this? This is insane, But again it shows you,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen, the attitude of the media and the
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: sports media especially. I want you to listen to cut number.
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: Eight all right time, hav an uncomfortable conversation about what
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: the hell is going on in New York. Jackson Dort,
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: the quarterback supporting President Donald Trump, He's allowed to do that.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: He's a citizen. He's allowed to have a freedom of thought.
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: Abdol Carter, first round pick, his teammate calling him out,
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: He's allowed to do that. If Jackson Dart's allows to
• 15:08
  Speaker 7: support Donald Trump, then his teammate is allowed to support
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: his grievance is with him doing that?
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Here is my issue, Jackson Dark.
• 15:17
  Speaker 7: You know how several of your brothers, your teammates, your friends,
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: your rider dies, how they might feel.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: About this individual.
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: So I don't think there's a lot of wisdom or
• 15:26
  Speaker 7: discernment in very publicly supporting an individual who many of
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: your teammates feel offended by. So, yes, Jackson Dart, you're
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: allowed to do whatever the hell you want, But I
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: don't know that it's a super wise decision without necessarily
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: consulting in some of your teammates. Abdul Carter, you're allowed
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: to express your frustrations with it. I don't think it's
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: super wise to do it publicly, because now you've got
• 15:49
  Speaker 7: thirty six million people looking.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: At a tweet of Abdol Carter. You calling out your boy.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: Keep in mind, y'all are both supposed to be the
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: futures of the New York Giants. Won a first round quarterback,
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: won a first round edge rusher. You're both supposed to
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: be the faith of the franchise. So with that thing,
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: said Jackson Dart, I don't personally have an issue with
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: him supporting Donald Trump.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: He's a human. He can support who he wants to support.
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: Was it pretty stupid given the reaction it will cause
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: to his other brothers that are humans that have human emotions. Absolutely,
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: I don't think it was wise. I don't got an
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: issue with it. Abdill Carter, I don't have an issue
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: with it either. Was it also unintelligent? Yes, because now
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: you caused a distraction and the organization ain't won no
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: games in a long time.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: But they're men, they can do what they want. There's
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: gonna be some to watch though.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Well, and again he does look this sports broadcaster here
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: for Fox Sports does have an offinion. He is offended
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: by this. I don't recall any of the outrage when
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: those players Radia up and supporting Barack Hussein Obama or
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden. Nobody was doing that and that's fine, But again,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: what exactly the guy says, Well, the players are offended
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: by Donald Why are they offended? What is it that
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump has done to these NFL players that has
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: caused defense? Because as near as Ikens held for his
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: entire career, President Trump, who by the way, was one
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: of the owners in the USFL, owned the New Jersey Generals.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, was one of the largest
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: supporters of black athletes back in the day. I want
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: to know, why are they offended by this guy? Or
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: is it just because they're ignorant and stupid and they
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: don't even bother to do their homework? Like joy Behart,
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Joyless Behart over at the view and she's really upset
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: about this cut number nine.
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: And when some people were not happy with Dart's opening
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: political endorsement, I mean, isn't he entitled to his It's America.
• 17:53
  Speaker 9: I mean.
• 17:55
  Speaker 10: For somebody to back a guy like Trump, who who's
• 17:59
  Speaker 10: history and discriminate and racism goes back to housing discrimination
• 18:03
  Speaker 10: in the seventies, DEI attacks and posting pictures of the
• 18:07
  Speaker 10: Obamas as apes. When he's on a team that's fifty
• 18:12
  Speaker 10: five percent of sixty percent of the NFL is that
• 18:15
  Speaker 10: many people of that not much percentage of black people
• 18:18
  Speaker 10: black that that is just the definition of stupidity and
• 18:22
  Speaker 10: racist in my opinion.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: So you've got joy Bayhart calling this guy a racist.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: You know what, you ought to turn around and sue
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: the ever living joylists out of joyleist read unbelievable. But
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: the broader issue here, ladies and gentlemen, is this as
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: much as the NFL is outraged over all of this.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: By the way, they were also outraged over the Dylan
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: The Kansas City chiefs Guy Harris said, what Butner is
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: that his name? Buckner?
• 18:46
  Speaker 11: Buckner?
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Buckner got up and gave a speech at a
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Catholic university and talked about it was for commencement and
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: talked about how guy sham marry women, women should marry guys,
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: There should be traditional roles in the family and traditional values.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: All you know what brokeluse. Then there was Tim Tebow
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: took a knee to pray, all you know what brokelues.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: But you know what, the NFL when it comes to
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: players who I don't know, commit domestic violence, rape women,
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: commit felony level crimes, they turn a blind eye every
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: single time, every single time. We could spend the next
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: hour going through the list of all the NFL players
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: who have committed heinous crimes, and the sports media and
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: the NFL has given these guys cover. If you ask me,
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: they are more gracious to men who beat up women
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: than they are players who actually support President Trump and
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: worship Jesus. What does that tell you about the NFL,
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen. Nine oh one two six zero five,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: nine two six is our number. That's nine oh one
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: two six zero five, nine two six. We'll be right back. Well,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: certainly an exciting day tomorrow in California, and I don't
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: know what's going to happen, but this is probably one
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: of my favorite races that we've been following so far
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: in this political season. And you've got a couple of
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: big ones. Of course, you've got the governor's race there,
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: and then you've got the mayor's race in Los Angeles.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: A new polling data that came out over the weekend
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: seemed to suggest that Spencer Prant was actually leading the
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: field of three candidates. Well, I want to go right
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: away to our Patriot Mobile news maker line. Always great
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: to have our good friend Wendy Patrick with us Usmax
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: columnist and just all around expert when it comes to
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: all things California politics. Wendy, hope you're doing well.
• 20:52
  Speaker 12: It's an exciting day and tomorrow is going to be
• 20:54
  Speaker 12: even better. So thank you for having me.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Dad.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean this is just absolutely insane, and Wendy,
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: first off, let's talk about the gubernatorial race, where you've
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: got Chad Bianco, who's really getting nasty out there and
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: urging Steve Hilton supporters to drop their support and embrace
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: his campaign. I think the last polling data I saw
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: the guy was what trailing in fourth place? What's the
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: latest there on the governorship?
• 21:20
  Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, pulling data.
• 21:22
  Speaker 13: We always struggle to decide how much way to put
• 21:24
  Speaker 13: on that because if we put a lot of weight
• 21:26
  Speaker 13: on it, Hillary Clinton would be president. Remember back in
• 21:28
  Speaker 13: twenty sixteen, we learned you just can't you just can't
• 21:31
  Speaker 13: trust it. And I would even say the president's just
• 21:35
  Speaker 13: when he was reelected. I mean, it was one of
• 21:37
  Speaker 13: those things that that ticker from the New York's Times
• 21:39
  Speaker 13: just kept tipping in the republic in favor, even though
• 21:42
  Speaker 13: everybody thought it was going to be Kamala Harris. But
• 21:45
  Speaker 13: translate that more locally to California. Will that dynamic operate
• 21:51
  Speaker 13: here here? I have to say we have a unique
• 21:54
  Speaker 13: slew of issues. Now, clearly we have some of the
• 21:57
  Speaker 13: same that you have on a national scale. We have
• 21:59
  Speaker 13: a wordability housing, but we also have things like homelessness,
• 22:04
  Speaker 13: which is rampant in California cities. In fact, some have said,
• 22:08
  Speaker 13: and I think I shared this with you the other day,
• 22:10
  Speaker 13: you go to Europe and you say you're from Los Angeles.
• 22:13
  Speaker 13: People say, not Hollywood, but homelessness. That shouldn't be the
• 22:17
  Speaker 13: hallmark of some of these great cities in the Golden State.
• 22:20
  Speaker 13: So it's a little bit different when you look at
• 22:22
  Speaker 13: the result of polls. I would say, maybe trust them
• 22:25
  Speaker 13: a little more because the issues are so just in
• 22:28
  Speaker 13: your own backyard, relevant to Californians that are answering some
• 22:32
  Speaker 13: of those pole surveys.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: So I want to get your take on this because
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: I think my take may be controversial. I don't think.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: I don't think for a minute that Steve Hilton, Chad Bianco,
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: or even Spencer Pratt are like mega conservatives, right. I mean,
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: they may be populist in their beliefs, they may be
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: conservative esque, but I don't think they're conservatives. And I
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: sort of cringed when I saw Spencer Pratt work in
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: the conservative media Fox News over the weekend, and I'm wondering,
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: is that going to have blowback for maybe Democrats who thought,
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: you know, hey, maybe he is, you know, a maga conservative,
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: because I'm not sure that plays in a place like
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Los Angeles.
• 23:14
  Speaker 12: Definitely not, Todd. I don't think it's controversial.
• 23:17
  Speaker 13: You know, what we're looking at here is what kind
• 23:19
  Speaker 13: of people live here and what kind of issues are
• 23:22
  Speaker 13: first and foremost on their minds.
• 23:24
  Speaker 12: You know, I mentioned homelessness, that's always true.
• 23:26
  Speaker 13: But in Los Angeles you've got the fire danger, You've
• 23:29
  Speaker 13: got hydrants with no water, you have insufficient cleanup efforts.
• 23:33
  Speaker 12: I'm unsafe schools because of needles.
• 23:35
  Speaker 13: On the ground, all the different issues that are a
• 23:38
  Speaker 13: bit unique here. So that's one of the areas I
• 23:40
  Speaker 13: suppose where's probably more common ground.
• 23:43
  Speaker 12: But it's also true that it is a.
• 23:45
  Speaker 13: Deep blue area, unlike other portions of the state. So
• 23:49
  Speaker 13: I do think that portraying someone like Pratt as a
• 23:52
  Speaker 13: maga conservative is not going to win in the audience
• 23:55
  Speaker 13: he needs to advance in the polls Now he's an
• 23:57
  Speaker 13: outsider and an underdog anyway, given the fact that he
• 24:01
  Speaker 13: showed up post fire in order to really sort of
• 24:04
  Speaker 13: make a difference. But that also doesn't mean that some
• 24:06
  Speaker 13: of his ideas aren't going to gain traction.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: My favorite Fox moment, I'm I'm such a bad person today, Windy.
• 24:13
  Speaker 11: I look.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Let me preface this by saying, I'm an evangelical Christian
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: who is very conservative and a devout person of faith.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: But it drives me nuts when I see these Fox
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: anchors say, tell me about your relationship with Jesus Christ.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: That's just an awkward thing when they ask these candidates
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: that question, especially candidates who may or may not be
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: overtly religious. And I don't know anything about I don't
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: know anything about it. And I think we just lost Wendy,
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: but we'll get her back here in a moment. I
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: don't know anything about Spencer Prant's religious beliefs. Guys, if
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: we can please turn that off, thank you again. We don't.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, why is that? Why is that important? Why
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: is that important to know? If Spencer Prant is a
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Christian man, if you are going to cast a vote
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: in the election, that makes absolutely no sense to me
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: at all. But that's sort of the Fox way, and
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: we can have a whole conversation at another time about
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: how Fox News has been. I don't grifting off of
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: evangelical believers. It's an ugly thing and it's a conversation
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: worth having. But anyway, I think we've got Wendy back.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: But Wendy, I was just saying the other cringe question.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know why Fox always seems to need to
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: know the religious affiliations of these candidates. Again, I'm not
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: sure that has anything to do with why people are
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: going to vote in Los Angeles or across California.
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: Yeah, it is true that sometimes if we have the
• 25:41
  Speaker 13: luxury of being ideologically aligned with our candidates, that's a
• 25:45
  Speaker 13: great thing.
• 25:45
  Speaker 12: But it's also true, as you point out.
• 25:47
  Speaker 13: We have the same kitchen table issues here in California.
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: You know, it's one thing to say that nationwide, obviously,
• 25:53
  Speaker 13: affordability is important, but California is unique in so many
• 25:57
  Speaker 13: different ways, not just in its population demographic breakdown, which
• 26:01
  Speaker 13: is an entirely another segment you and I can do
• 26:03
  Speaker 13: at some points, but also in the common ground we
• 26:06
  Speaker 13: share as to the type of statewide issues healthcare, border
• 26:10
  Speaker 13: not that every city isn't a border town. I understand
• 26:12
  Speaker 13: that argument as well, but we feel it more uniquely
• 26:16
  Speaker 13: here than anywhere else, especially where I'm from in San Diego.
• 26:19
  Speaker 13: So it is true religion is important. Ideally it would
• 26:22
  Speaker 13: be aligned, but it certainly isn't going to be the
• 26:24
  Speaker 13: driving factor when it comes to what we're going to
• 26:26
  Speaker 13: be voting on tomorrow.
• 26:28
  Speaker 12: I can't believe it's almost here.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I know it's so what are you hearing boots on
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: the ground? Are folks really excited about this? Or is
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: it again? Is this sort of an inside inside baseball,
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: inside politics kind of a race?
• 26:41
  Speaker 12: It seems like the latter in a lot of places
• 26:43
  Speaker 12: that I go.
• 26:44
  Speaker 13: The only reason that the primary is on people's minds
• 26:48
  Speaker 13: is because of the drama that's been associated with it,
• 26:51
  Speaker 13: particularly in the governor's race, where you had the dramatic
• 26:54
  Speaker 13: exit by Eric Swalwell. Well, all of a sudden, people
• 26:56
  Speaker 13: wanted to know, wait a minute, who is running for
• 26:58
  Speaker 13: governor and who is that? Who is Haavier bes Era
• 27:01
  Speaker 13: and how did he all of a sudden shoot to
• 27:03
  Speaker 13: be the front runner? So too, in Los Angeles, when
• 27:06
  Speaker 13: Pratt declared his candidacy, all of a sudden it became
• 27:09
  Speaker 13: interesting to Angelino's as they keep calling the citizens. All
• 27:13
  Speaker 13: of a sudden it became more interesting to watch. But
• 27:15
  Speaker 13: even Todd, with all of that intrigue, there's still this
• 27:19
  Speaker 13: push to get people out to vote. Yes, people are
• 27:22
  Speaker 13: saying I would vote this way, that or the other,
• 27:24
  Speaker 13: but they may not actually cast about or go to
• 27:26
  Speaker 13: the polls. That's going to be tragic as far as
• 27:30
  Speaker 13: people that think that they're just just going to follow
• 27:32
  Speaker 13: the numbers, and that's going to sort of translate into
• 27:35
  Speaker 13: mass you see.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: And that's for me. I'm just trying to figure out, Okay,
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: does does Spencer Pratt actually have the mojo here? I mean,
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: does he have the big momentum going into tomorrow or
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: is this just something that the media is hyping up.
• 27:50
  Speaker 13: Well, I think he has momentum in terms of star power,
• 27:52
  Speaker 13: but a lot of his fans can't vote because I
• 27:54
  Speaker 13: don't live in Los Angeles. I think, plain and simple,
• 27:57
  Speaker 13: that is one bit of uphill bad. All of the
• 28:00
  Speaker 13: big heavyweights that are weighing in, the Joe Rogans of
• 28:03
  Speaker 13: the world and the Todd Starns of the media, you're
• 28:06
  Speaker 13: all talking about him, and I think it's a great thing,
• 28:08
  Speaker 13: because he really has just risen to some prominence. Whether
• 28:11
  Speaker 13: you're going to vote for him or not, but the
• 28:13
  Speaker 13: people that are eligible to cast that ballot may not
• 28:15
  Speaker 13: view him the same way.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: By the way, folks, we have Wendy Patrick joining us
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: today on the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. Of course, some
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: shenanigans LA Times, ABC seven and Los Angeles saying ballots
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: were burned, a vote center vandalized just before election day.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: What do you make of all of that?
• 28:36
  Speaker 13: I have seen the same reports and other major cities, Todd.
• 28:38
  Speaker 13: I hate to see something like this happen. I mean,
• 28:40
  Speaker 13: everybody wants a fair election. Let's let people have their vote.
• 28:45
  Speaker 14: You know.
• 28:45
  Speaker 13: It's sort of like the fires that are being started
• 28:47
  Speaker 13: all up and down California. There's just these unique dynamics
• 28:51
  Speaker 13: in play that seeks to just detract from what people
• 28:54
  Speaker 13: are going to the ballots to do. Elect somebody who's
• 28:57
  Speaker 13: going to make their life better. When it comes down to,
• 29:00
  Speaker 13: regardless of star power, money spent, or anything else, people
• 29:03
  Speaker 13: are going to vote for the candidate that are going
• 29:05
  Speaker 13: to improve the lives of themselves and their families. No
• 29:08
  Speaker 13: one likes to see anyone thwarting the ability of citizens
• 29:12
  Speaker 13: to do exactly that, you.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: Know, Wendy, one of the other things that we need
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: to be watching out for tomorrow. And it is sort
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: of I think all the oxygen got sucked out of
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: the room when it came to the governor's race and
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: the mayor's race there in Los Angeles. But you've got
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: some major primary battles underway that could very well decide
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: the future control of the US House of Representatives.
• 29:32
  Speaker 13: Yes, and that's in light of the redistricting that went
• 29:36
  Speaker 13: into play, and it's also in light of some candidates
• 29:38
  Speaker 13: deciding at the last.
• 29:39
  Speaker 12: Minute they're not going to run again.
• 29:41
  Speaker 13: And on top of that, Todd, we have issues like
• 29:44
  Speaker 13: you know, empty housing tax, where you can get taxed
• 29:46
  Speaker 13: at your house is.
• 29:47
  Speaker 12: Is vacant for so many days.
• 29:49
  Speaker 13: We have different types of propositions that are uniquely tailored
• 29:52
  Speaker 13: to the conditions in California that maybe wouldn't be an
• 29:55
  Speaker 13: issue in other states. And you're right, if you're focusing
• 29:58
  Speaker 13: too much on the two biggest, most interesting, sexiest raises
• 30:01
  Speaker 13: in California, you're going to miss the opportunity to have
• 30:04
  Speaker 13: your voice heard on some of the issues that may
• 30:06
  Speaker 13: be more close to home for you.
• 30:08
  Speaker 12: Depending on where you live.
• 30:10
  Speaker 13: So I always say, don't just vote for, you know,
• 30:13
  Speaker 13: somebody that is gapturing headlines in one way or another.
• 30:16
  Speaker 13: Talk to your neighbors, your friends, your people of faith
• 30:19
  Speaker 13: down at your church and see what other issues you
• 30:21
  Speaker 13: should be paying attention to on the ballot.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: One of my favorites Kevin Kylie, who has already switched.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: I mean he's an independent now. He was a longtime
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Republican and now Independent trying to you know, win his
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: seat even though he's been redistricted.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:36
  Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, redistricting has really caused a lot of
• 30:40
  Speaker 13: consternation for people that were so used to really having
• 30:43
  Speaker 13: some I don't even know if we want to say
• 30:45
  Speaker 13: safe seats, but safer seats seriously than they are now.
• 30:48
  Speaker 13: And as this redistricting panel just kind of looks at
• 30:52
  Speaker 13: different states now trying to figure out, you know, how
• 30:54
  Speaker 13: are we going to change the balance of power in Congress. Yes,
• 30:58
  Speaker 13: people now are really having to work harder than they
• 31:00
  Speaker 13: thought they would have because their districts are no longer
• 31:03
  Speaker 13: the safer areas they.
• 31:05
  Speaker 12: Once counted on.
• 31:06
  Speaker 13: And if you look at a graphic of California as
• 31:08
  Speaker 13: an example, it is stunning.
• 31:10
  Speaker 11: The way, some.
• 31:11
  Speaker 13: Districts are going to be very different tomorrow than in
• 31:14
  Speaker 13: previous years.
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: All right, well, we're going to be watching it all
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: unfold tomorrow, and of course we'll be doing analysis on Wednesday. Wendy,
• 31:22

  Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting. Spencer Prant was on with Bill
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Maher and I thought he made some interesting points here,
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: especially when it comes to the homeless crisis they're in
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: Los Angeles. Take a listen, ready for the best part.
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: Sixty percent of the people in Los Angeles that are
• 32:08
  Speaker 8: experiencing homelessness, they're not from California. They've been brought here
• 32:14
  Speaker 8: by NGOs that profit off of this homeless industrial complex.
• 32:19
  Speaker 8: Medical wait, they've been brought here. They've been brought here.
• 32:21
  Speaker 15: Who did that?
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: Body brokers bring these people here from where all across
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: the country. If you're an attic, you can come to
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: LA and get these rehabs. And because you're Medican, you.
• 32:32
  Speaker 15: Have a social also, if you're gonna be shall we say, outdoors,
• 32:36
  Speaker 15: your whole life, it's better to be here than in
• 32:38
  Speaker 15: Minneapolis a lot. I think that's part of the attraction.
• 32:42
  Speaker 15: I don't know if this is a big plot. Do
• 32:43
  Speaker 15: you think this is a big.
• 32:45
  Speaker 8: There's a big part where this is Like I talk
• 32:47
  Speaker 8: to these people who are now sober off fen and
• 32:49
  Speaker 8: all off meth, and they say they got literally brought
• 32:52
  Speaker 8: here through a rehab trying to get out jukes. The
• 32:55
  Speaker 8: money runs out, boom left on the street.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: All right, look it's again. This is a shocking number.
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: Sixty percent of the homeless people in Los Angeles not
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: even from California, and they're being brought in by all
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: of these nngos. By the way, here's what Prant had
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: to say about his Jewish friends. And I want to
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: take a listen to this cut three.
• 33:18
  Speaker 8: I grew up in LA. All my best friends are Jewish.
• 33:21
  Speaker 8: I grew up going to crossroads. I've been to more
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: bar and bought Mitzvah than i'd been to church, because
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: I was maybe still tied to the point where, of course,
• 33:32
  Speaker 8: when I'm running from Mayor, I'm going to Temples, I'm
• 33:34
  Speaker 8: supporting my Jewish friends. The level of psycho Nazi lunacy
• 33:38
  Speaker 8: that came at me to just say that I want
• 33:41
  Speaker 8: my friends and family to feel safe in LA, to
• 33:43
  Speaker 8: feel safe if their kids go to UCLA. I had
• 33:47
  Speaker 8: to see if the only thing that came out of
• 33:50
  Speaker 8: this whole experience, there's a lot of things. If I
• 33:52
  Speaker 8: God forbid or God's plan, I don't win. To see
• 33:55
  Speaker 8: what people experience right now just because of their religion
• 33:59
  Speaker 8: is diabolical. And again, I don't care if you're Muslim,
• 34:03
  Speaker 8: I don't care what. I don't care how you identify.
• 34:05
  Speaker 8: I don't care if you're trans, I don't care whatever
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: you do. But you should have the right to do
• 34:10
  Speaker 8: that and feel safe wherever you are, whether it's going
• 34:13
  Speaker 8: to school, going to your popping trans bar, whatever it is,
• 34:18
  Speaker 8: you should feel safe and not feel in danger.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: Well that's true, I mean, he's he's absolutely right about that.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: All right, We've got to take a break care of folks.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: hour telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero

• 35:40
  Speaker 3: great addition to the Big Weight Loss campaign. Here on
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: the Todd Stearns Radio Show, all right coming up in
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: the next hour. Man this crazy story out of Maine.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: The Senate candidate for the Democrats, a guy by the
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: name of Graham Platner. He is a Nazi and now
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: some insane, insane text messages and other posts are coming out.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: His wife, Amy Gertner, is also responding to reports that
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: she gave his campaign a heads up, saying, hey, look,
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: you need to be aware. My husband was sending sexually
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: explicit text messages to several different women while we were married,
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: and by the way, they're still married. Unbelievable. He also
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: made some incredibly offensive posts about a wounded US soldier,
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: so we're going to get into that coming up in
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: the next hour. It's just, folks, it is Manker's crazy. Also,
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: gay Pride celebrations happening all across America, and it's like
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: an entire month of this where they're shoving the LGBT agenda,
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: write down your throats and your kids throats. Some schools,
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: now kindergarten schools are now holding gay pride celebrations. They
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: went the four and the five year olds to celebrate
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: gay sex. By the way, the NFL as well, jumping
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: on board a number of the teams are putting out
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: messages celebrating pride, and the folks, a lot of folks
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: are really fired up about this. Now with the NFL,
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, we kind of figured they would be,
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: you know, I get that, but all of these schools,
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: and I want to go back to a central message here,
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: and this is something we've talked about a long time
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: on the program. All of these public schools that are
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: out there holding these gay pride celebrations, they are in
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: violation of President Trump's executive orders. So it just seems
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: to me that the Department of Education needs to be
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: enforcing the executive orders. It seems to me that any
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: school that's holding idleo, a drag Queen's show, or some
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: sort of a pride or they're doing the rainbow crap,
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: every single one of those schools should be penalized. And
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: how do you do that, Well, you yank their federal funding.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: I mean it really is. It's not all that difficult, right,
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: yanked their federal funding. But again, this is this is
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: the problem I have with the Trump Department of Education.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: They're just it's all lip service. They're really not doing anything.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: They talk the big talk, but when it comes down
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: to it. They're not doing anything. We've got to start
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: doing something, all right. Nine oh one two six zero
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: five nine two six. Our telephone number, that's nine oh
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five, nine two six. This is
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: the Todd Sterns Show.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: That's that's that this American start all right.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on there in the in
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: the state of Texas. You got all the Islamis moving in.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: You've got mosques being set up on every street corner.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: And then there's a story out of Denton, Texas about
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: a local swimming pool. This is the I guess, the
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: taxpayer funded swimming pool, and they're hosting an event coming
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: up in a couple of days called the Big Gay
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: Swim Day, and that's got a lot of people riled up.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: The Attorney General Ken Pankston is now suing the City
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: of Denton to prevent the creation of gender neutral changing
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: rooms at a publicly owned child friendly swimming pool. I
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: have many questions about this. First of all, why in
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: the world are you having a Big Gay Swim Day
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: and a child friendly swimming pool. What is that all about? Unbelievable?
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: So the the event has been organized by two nonprofit groups.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: One is called Pride Denton and another is called The
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: Outreach Denton. This is all being held at the Quakertown
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Civic Center, which the city of Denton owns it controls.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: The center includes a public access swimming pool and sex
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: specific multiple occupancy changing rooms. In other words, girl parts
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: go here, boy parts go here, and they all live happily.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: Ever after the two nonprofit groups runted the center for
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: an event that's advertised as Big Gay Swim Day and
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: is open to all ages of the general public. Event
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: organizers have publicly advertised that gender neutral changing rooms, which
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: would allow men to use the same changing rooms as
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: women and kids, will be available on site during the event.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: As the Attorney General points out, this is a clear
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: viol of Texas law. The Attorney General, writing in a
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: statement that we've got a copy of, says cities cannot
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: disregard Texas law by allowing men to change with young
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: kids in spaces designated for women. The City of Denton
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: had an opportunity to prevent this violation and choose to
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: do nothing, and chose rather to do nothing. That dereliction
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: of judy will not stand, and I will ensure that
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: Texas cities follow our state's laws to protect women and
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: children from men invading their spaces. So there you have it,
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen. As the what is it Gay Pride
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: Month kicks off and the Attorney General is fighting back here,
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: I'm very glad to see the Attorney General doing this.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is insanity. Nolan, have ever been at
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: one of the swimming pools? Like a public swimming pool plot?
• 41:57
  Speaker 11: I know you are going to try to ask stand this.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: I just I have a question, and this is my question.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: And I don't know, maybe this is a terrible question
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: to ask. Ellen's gonna need to leave the room. Ellen,
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: leave the control room. So here's my question. What's up
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: with the speedos of the thongs?
• 42:16
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a great question.
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: I don't get it. I mean I get that you're okay, fine,
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: you're gay, not you tell them, But in general, okay,
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: I get it, you're gay, All right, great, go live
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: your life. What do I care? But why do you
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: have to prance around in a thong?
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 42:34
  Speaker 11: I mean these are all excellent questions. I feel like
• 42:37
  Speaker 11: the speedo slash thong by men was worn, Like, wasn't
• 42:42
  Speaker 11: it started in like the seventies or something like, wasn't
• 42:44
  Speaker 11: this a thing? This used to be a thing for
• 42:46
  Speaker 11: like straight males. It wasn't just for gay males at
• 42:50
  Speaker 11: that point.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: I reckon. So yeah, I reckon. So I just you know,
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: I don't get it. I didn't get it in the
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: nineteen seventies.
• 42:58
  Speaker 11: I just don't know. I don't have any friends that
• 43:00
  Speaker 11: just go out and willingly buy speedos for their beach trip.
• 43:04
  Speaker 11: Like I'm I'll buy the five inch shorts, that's fine,
• 43:07
  Speaker 11: but anything above that that's crazy.
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: Well, you want to have like you want to have everything,
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: you know. I mean back in the day, people you know,
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: wore clothes to the beach. You know, that was like
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: a thing.
• 43:16
  Speaker 11: I guess.
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you're a woman and you want to
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: wear a thong bikini, okay.
• 43:20
  Speaker 11: Yeah, culturally acceptable, that is culturally I guess if you
• 43:25
  Speaker 11: want to get a good tan.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: All sure on a church youth group trip, and then
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: that could be you know, problematic.
• 43:30
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that's that's a talk. You're gonna you're gonna be
• 43:33
  Speaker 11: sent to a room.
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: That is true. I'm just I am wondering though, I've
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: always just wondered that why is that. I mean, there's
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: there's a place in New York City, this is great story.
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: It's called Fire Island, and apparently that's where all the
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: gays go to suntan in the summertime. And it's just
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: it's it's like, I don't know, thongs as far as
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: the eye can see. And then I mean, if you're
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: if you're not into all of that, you know, you're
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: probably just praying that almighty gong would just burn your irises.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just, I mean, it's a lot to
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: take in in most cases, well not really, in some
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: cases a little bit. All I'm saying is why why
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: is it that the the the LGBT community has embraced
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: the thong and the speedo? And I fear for the children?
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: I do. I mean it, this is a family friendly
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: you know, kids don't need to see that. That's going
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: to be traumatizing. Oh you know what's worse, Dylan, the
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: big hairy dudes, Yeah, big burry, hairy fat dudes. Yeah,
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: wearing the thongs? The children. There's anybody thinking about the children?
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: Surely not Mommy, What is smoky that bear wearing. I mean,
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: it's just what do you do?
• 44:51
  Speaker 11: Is that bigfoot? What do you say, Oh, that's Carl No,
• 44:55
  Speaker 11: that he got those yesterday.
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying they've got things for that. You know,
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: they can help you. But just again, I just I
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: just you know, the and and the whole point of
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: it is this. It's kind of like, oh, what is it?
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Is it San Francisco or Portland where they have the
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: buck Naked bicycle group and they run around during the
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: pride parade and God love them. I I gotta tell you,
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: that is dangerous, especially if you're not riding one of
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: those banana seeds. I mean, that could get painful. Not
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: to mention the fact that you don't want to get
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: anything caught in the spokes, I mean, that could be
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: really devastating. So you've got all this stuff going on,
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: and what is the whole point of this. The whole
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: point of it is that it's debauchery. It is sodom
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: mighamara on steroids. And the fact of the matter is
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: this is not a celebration. They're flaunting and they want
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: you to accept. They want you to accept the thong.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: That's it. That's what it's really all about and they
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: put it out there and if you don't, well they
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: call you homophoburg or whatever.
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: This is.
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: I want you to hear this. This is the pastor
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: Riverside Church in New York City, and this is some
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: sort of a preacher and he's wearing the rainbow colors
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: and this just happens Sunday, and I want you to
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: hear what he had to say to all of you
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: Christian people out there.
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: It's time that we start insisting that true Christian faith
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: calls us to authenticity, celebrates broad diversity of humanity, and
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: celebrates as we evolve and expand our understanding of God
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: and the world. And that is why this morning, I say,
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: from this historic pulpit, on this Pride Eve service, according
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: to the true faith of Jesus, homophobia is heresy. Transphobia
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: is a transgression against God. And there is no justification
• 47:11
  Speaker 4: in our faith tradition for treating queer people as less
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: than the beloved children of God.
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: That they are.
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: All right. I gotta tell you that sounds a little, uh,
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: what is the theological ward? I'm looking for fruity to me. Yet,
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: that guy's a nut job. He's kind of like a
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: reverend like James tall Rico. These people are fruit loopes.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: So look, this is what the churches across America are embracing.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: And right now I just find this fascinating. We're gonna
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: give the calls in just a second. There's a brief
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: aside here. So the Southern Baptist Convention, of which I
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: am a member, I tithe. I've been involved in the
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: Southern Baptist Convention for a very very long time. And
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: the Southern Baptist Convention is the only nomination in world
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: history that went from being liberal back to embracing its
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: conservative roots. It's conservative theology. They call it the conservative resurgence.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: And as a result of that, the denomination flourished and grew,
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: and people were getting saved and baptized, and churches were overflowing.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: And now there is a massive decline in the Southern
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: Baptist Convention happening. And the reason why is because a
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: lot of these seminaries are churning out woke preachers and preacherrets,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: and they are introducing liberal theology into Southern Baptist churches.
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: And therefore you've got the Southern Baptist Convention now in
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: a pretty steep steady decline, and it's a terrible thing,
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: and it's a very fixable thing, but it's not going
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: to be fixed. And the reason why is because a
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: lot of these Baptist universities and colleges, they're just as
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: liberal as the day is long. In all seriousness, there
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: are a couple that there are public universities that are
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: more conservative scripturally than some of these Baptist schools out there.
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: But on top of that, you've got all of these
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: schools churning out these woke theologians, and so the latest
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: the latest thing, and I don't want to get it.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: We're not getting into the argument over female preachers. But
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: let me just say, in the Southern Baptist tradition, we
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: do not allow women to be pastors in our churches.
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: That's just the way it's always been and there is
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: a scriptural reason for that, and we're not going to
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: get into that right now. I'm just just bear with
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: me for a second. So now the denomination is on
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: the verge of possibly embracing female preachers. And I'm just
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: going to make a bold prediction here because one of
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: the things that's happened with the Southern Baptist Convention. They
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: have been on a slippery slope. They've been sort of
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: jettising all of these things that so you know, they
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: disapproved of. Remember, they were a lot of the Southern
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: Baptist Convention leaders were rabidly anti Trump. Rabidly many of
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: the Southern Baptist leaders are out there saying, well, you
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: people that love America and if you if you have
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: an American flag in your church, you're a Christian nationalist.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: And that's basically they're calling you Nazis. These are Southern
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: Baptist leaders and so now so now they're on the
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: verge of deciding this issue concerning female preachers. And I
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: think at the end of the day, here's what I
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: think is going to happen. I think they are going
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: to approve female pastors, and I think they're going to
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: abandon their long held beliefs based on Scripture. And very
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: soon you will start to see churches embracing the LGBT
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: agenda within the Southern Baptist Convention. I'm folks, mark it down.
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: Mark down what I'm telling you, because once you get
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: on that slope, once you begin to decline, you cannot stop.
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: And if look at the boy Scouts. Look at what
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: happened with the Boy Scouts. Completely obliterated the Boy Scouts.
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: They ended up having to go bankrupt because they gave
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: up their core beliefs. That's what's happening here. And I
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: hate to say it, but again, this is all part
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: of a concerted effort by the radical LGBT activist and
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: I want to say something about that for a moment.
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: They are a small, but very well funded and very
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: powerful group of people. But I will say this, the
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: average gay person in American they're not marching. They're not
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: they're not prancing around in a thong. They're living their
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: lives quietly, minding their own business. They're not in your business,
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: and they don't want you in their business. And I
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: appreciate and respect that, I truly do. And those are
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: the folks that get caught in the middle here, and
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: it's unfortunate. But again, this idea going back to what
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: Barack Hussein Obama said when the Supreme Court redefined what
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: God originally defined as marriage. Barack Obama said, this is
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: really not going to have any impact at all for
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: any of you out there who are heterosexual or you're
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: in a traditional marriage. Well, now We know that was
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: simply not true, and they are not going to be
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: satisfied until they get control over everything, and that includes
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: your local church. I'm just telling you pay attention, be prepared.
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: Look at the warning signs. Gotta take a break here
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: of folks. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: two six. Our telephone number, that's nine oh one two
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: Stern Show.
• 52:54
  Speaker 16: Do you think we're soonful?
• 52:57
  Speaker 17: You fight against our rights, You say you all need
• 53:00
  Speaker 17: lives you can't respect.
• 53:05
  Speaker 16: But you're just frightening.
• 53:07
  Speaker 17: You think that we'll corrupt your kids if our agenda
• 53:11
  Speaker 17: goes unchecked. Funny, Just this, once you're correct, will convert
• 53:21
  Speaker 17: your children. Happens bit by bit, quietly and subtly, and
• 53:28
  Speaker 17: you will barely notice it. You can keep them from
• 53:32
  Speaker 17: disco worn about San Francisco, make him wear pleated pants.
• 53:37
  Speaker 16: We don't care. Will convert your children. We'll make them
• 53:45
  Speaker 16: tolerant and fair.
• 53:48
  Speaker 17: How first, I didn't get why you'd be so scared
• 53:50
  Speaker 17: of us turning your children into accepting, caring people.
• 53:53
  Speaker 13: But I see now why you have a problem.
• 53:57
  Speaker 16: Just like you worried I'll change their group of friends.
• 54:02
  Speaker 17: You won't approve of where they go at night to protests.
• 54:07
  Speaker 17: So when you'll be disgusted when they start finding things
• 54:12
  Speaker 17: online that you've kept far from their site, like information,
• 54:18
  Speaker 17: guess what you will still be your right.
• 54:23
  Speaker 16: Will convert your children? Yes, we will reaching one. And
• 54:27
  Speaker 16: oh there's really no escaping it. As even Grandma like.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: Roomball and the world's getting kinder, all right, Well enough
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: of that. That is the San Francisco Gay Men's Corral
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: and a couple of things here. I'm pretty sure Grandma
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: does not watch RuPaul Dylan. I'm confused. What's what's the
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: deal with depleted pants? Is that gay? I don't I
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: thought that was normal. Aren't those just pants exactly? I
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 54:57
  Speaker 11: We'll have to check on that.
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: Uh So, the San Francisco Gay Men's Choir Corral, they
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: produced this song, they wrote this song called We're Coming
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: for Your Children, and you know, they say, oh, it's
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: just a parody. Do you believe that is a parody
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: what you just heard? Do you believe that that is
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: a parody or do you believe that this is what
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: it's really all about? You know, originally they said, well,
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: we got to get him in the high school and
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: so they had all these gay rights clubs in the
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: high schools, and they said, well, you know what, we
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: need to start reaching out to the middle school So
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: they started having all the middle and junior high schools
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: have the gay rights clubs. Then they decided that they
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: were going to reach sixth graders in elementary school. And
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: now it's gotten to a point where now even in
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: preschool they are having gay pride celebrations. So as a
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: result of this, you've got a lot of confused kids
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: out there, kids that are being taught things that they
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: have no business needing to know about. But this is
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: where we are in the country right now. And again
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: I go back to this one central thought is that
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: the Trump administration has to crack down here. It's one
• 56:10
  Speaker 3: thing to issue an executive order, it's another thing to
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: actually implement the executive order. And that's it's just simply
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: not happening. And now you've got towns that are actually
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: pushing back against the Transportation Department. You know, Sean Duffy said, hey, look,
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: you're not going to be allowed to have any of
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: these rainbow crosswalks anymore. And now towns are defying that.
• 56:33
  Speaker 3: So and the reason why is they know there's no
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: teeth to any of this, none whatsoever. That's why the schools,
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: public schools, universities, that's why they're defying the president on
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: all of this LGBT agenda. All right, gotta take a
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: break here. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: two six hour telephone number. Do you believe that song
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: was a parody or do you really think that's what
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: the endgame here is? Nine oh one two six zero
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: five nine two. This is the Todd Sterns Show. All right,
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: Welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Sterns radio Show.
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: Interesting story out of Illinois. The Illinois Senate just passed
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: a bill that would allow out of state illegal aliens
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: to receive in state tuition rates at our public universities.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: Democrats voted thirty eight to nineteen in favor. All the
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: Republicans in Illinois opposed the law follows. This follows a
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: recent law by the way that already made the illegals
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: eligible for state scholarships and financial aid. Now, one state
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: senator called out how universities loved all the extra revenue,
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: but residents get stuck with the bill. No doubt about that.
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: Now we know something about that here in the state
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: of Tennessee where we broadcast our program, because we live
• 58:15
  Speaker 3: in a well, we're right on the border of Arkansas
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: and Mississippi. And therefore, if you are, for example, a
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: resident of Tennessee and you wanted to go to a
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: school in Mississippi, well, you would have to pay out
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: of state tuition for that. But what Illinois is doing
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: is they're saying no, no, no, for illegals. Now, if
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: you're in a let's just say you were born in Indiana,
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: you're born in Indiana, and you want to go to
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: school in Illinois, you, as an American born person, would
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: have to pay out of state tuition. The Democrats have
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: now decided that illegals deserve a leg up, so they're
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: going to be able to pay in state tuition. Do
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: you find that to be remotely fair, ladies and gentlemen.
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: And again, it goes back to it goes back to
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: something that I've I've been telling you from day one.
• 59:08
  Speaker 3: It's one set of rules governing the illegals and another
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: set governing all the rest of us. That's just the
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: way it is. Nine oh one two six zero five
• 59:19
  Speaker 3: nine two six are telephone number. That's nine oh one
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. I love this
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: story out of Nashville. And there are two stories out
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: of Nashville. But the first one involves a lot of
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: small businesses who have joined a coalition and they are
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: demanding property tax relief. Some of these small businesses are
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: being forced to pay almost five six hundred thousand dollars
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: a year in property tax. It's unbelievable. And of course
• 59:44
  Speaker 3: Nashville is controlled by Democrats. And all of this is
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: happening as Nashville considers whether or not they're going to
• 59:53
  Speaker 3: be offering incentives for Starbucks to relocate, taking us at
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: a cut one.
• 59:58
  Speaker 18: Starbucks announces it's coming Toashville. Who's who of politicians shaking hands,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 18: drinking coffee and talking about how wonderful it will be
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 18: to bring Starbucks to Nashville. But outside the noisy photo
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 18: op a different story. Nashville's oldest restaurant for allos closed
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 18: forever because of property tax fallout, The beloved Pelican and
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 18: Pig and a little slow hand bakery that served amazing
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 18: cookies at reasonable prices, gone forever. Even if it stopped
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 18: right here, it would be bad, But it's not close to.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: Over Jesus ALU. That's insane. There's another big problem though,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: in Nashville, and it's the name of the town Nashville.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: So they're saying that the name of the town needs
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: to be changed because the person that's named after was
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: a racist and so therefore Nashville needs a new name.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: This is written by a guy by the name of
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: Peter Chesney in the Nashville ten See, a newspaper, and
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 3: Chesney is saying that we need to rename the town.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: And by the way, Chesney is not even from here.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: He's he's an out of towner. This is why I
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: am a firm believer in strong border security when it
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: comes to the Southern States. We got to be careful
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: who we're letting in of the South. We've just got
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: to So Chesney is out there and he's saying, well, yeah,
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: the name is really offensive. And I always felt uncomfortable
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 3: with a name because apparently the guy moves here and
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 3: then he's I look googling, and what did he Well,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 3: I wonder what the town is named after. And when
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: he finds out who the town is named after, he
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: just pitched a fit. So now I am not kidding you.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: Dylan the guy wants to rename the town after a
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: civil rights activist. Her name is Diane Nashville. All right,
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: so it's still going to be Nashville, but it would
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: be named Diane in Nashville, d nash.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 11: We should just help them.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: Oh my word, you just so this guy, this guy Chesney,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 3: he's I think he's over at uh at Vanderbilt, which
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: I'm not terribly surprised. But here's the deal, folks, if
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: you're gonna go down this path, you're gonna have to
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: rename every town in the South, every single way. By
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 3: the way, Memphis, you know, Memphis is named after you know,
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: Memphis in Egypt, which is a hotbed of slavery. By
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: the way, we're gonna rename Memphis. Is that what we're
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: gonna do?
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 9: Oh?
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: By the way, did you see what happened? There was
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: some video circulating, uh Dylan, there was a big you know,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: they spent what sixty million dollars to create this beautiful
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 3: downtown park that nobody wanted, and everybody warned folks, hey, look,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: you're just gonna you're just asking for trouble and sixty
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: million dollars and you know, they put in basketball courts,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: and everybody said, that is a bad idea, don't do it.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: What do they do? They put in the basketball courts,
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: And of course there have been shootings, there have been fights,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: all sorts of ugliness. So they had something over the
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: weekend called the Lemon Drop Festival, which was what booze
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 3: is that pretty much it?
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 11: Yeah, lemon drop is like a shot. You can take
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 11: it as a shot.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: Oh is that it? People were passed out in the
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 3: bushes all over the place.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 11: I'm not surprised.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: I mean it looked like the aftermath of some sort
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: of a Roman orgy down there. God, that's how bad
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: it was. And then apparently they were like fights, like
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: I mean people because of course, you know, when you
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: got that much booze, people are going to start fist
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: fights naturally Memphis, in Memphis. I know it's shocking. I
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: know it's shocking, but it was ugly. So our affiliate KWAM,
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: which carries this show, they have video on the on
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 3: their Facebook page. It is insane, and I don't you know,
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 3: it's a common theme among a certain demographic and focus.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 3: Big balt big black women, big bulged black women going
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: at it right there at tom Lee Park and it's
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: because the first thing they do is they they grab
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 3: the hair, Dylan, and you know that's always the last
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: thing that's left. And so there was this huge fight
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: and they're beating this woman up and then somebody she's
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 3: getting up to leave, and they're like smacking her in
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 3: the back with an umbrella, and it's like there's like
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: this huge pile of like black on the sidewalk and
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: it was the woman's hair. And I'm like, ma'am, don't
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 3: forget your weave.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 11: I mean, yep, that's that's what you see.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: Don't leave without your weave.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 11: Very smart.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 3: So I'm thinking here, there's going to be a better
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: I don't know how you attach those things. Is it,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know, is it glue or a scotch tape,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: duct tape, But there's got to be something. There's got
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: to be a stronger adhesive, is what I'm getting at.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: Otherwise you would be better off just leaving the weave
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: at home. So you don't because I'm sure those things
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: cost a pretty penny, right, I'm sure. Yeah, what five
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: ten bucks down at the dollar General Idol.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 11: If you're going to the Lemon Drop Festival or whatever
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 11: it's called. Yeah, you should leave it at home.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 3: Happen, yeah, or downtown, you know, on Beale Street.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 11: Yeah, literally anywhere, actually, anywhere in Memphis, the mall church,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 11: driving in your car.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, anyway, I hope everybody's okay, but I
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: felt bad for. And who I really feel bad for
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: is the people that have to clean up after all
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: of that stuff and they're like, nobody wants to pick
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: up a weave. I mean, that's just nasty, right. I'm
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: just saying nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: two six. What were we talking about it? I've lost
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: my train of thought, ladies and gentlemen. But all that
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: to say, what a mess in America? What a mess?
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: By the way, this program brought to you by our
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: friends at Newsmax, and they want to make sure you
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: are getting all of the Social Security benefits that you deserve.

  Speaker 14: DoD, Hey, hey, YouTube Dylan. But uh, DoD, you were
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 14: talking about the fighting and the hairpool and then you
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 14: see all that's left on the sidewalk is that huge
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 14: black mass. And we we have a name for it
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 14: here in Memphis. We call it tumble weaves.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm sorry, they're called what tumble?
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 14: What tumble weaves?
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: Oh? Tumble weaves? All right?
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 14: Instead of instead of a couple of weaves like you
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 14: have that you know out with, it's called tumble weave here.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 14: And do you remember the fighting that happened on Mindenhall
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 14: Road out in the middle of traffic where the guy
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 14: who wasn't even involved in the fight came out of
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 14: his car with a couple of weapons.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 3: Oh I do that. Yeah, that video that video went nationwide. Yeah,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: was viral.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 14: Okay, this is I won't mention the name of my company,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 14: but we're a pretty large h VAC company here in
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 14: Minisis is probably one of the biggest. And we're watching
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 14: this video and when the guy gets out of his
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 14: cars with the guns right through the intersection in prominent
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 14: view is one of our vans with our company go
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 14: on the side. It was beautiful.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 3: Well, you can't look free advertising. You can't be fat, Tom, No.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 14: You can't have a great weak Thanks for taking my car.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 3: All right, thanks a lot, Tom, appreciate it. Dylan, you
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: remember that video the guy and he was just nonchalant
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: about it. I think he popped out of his own
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: vehicle with an AR fifteen.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it's very casual. Yeah, just every day things that
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 11: you see.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know here in Memphis, it is I'm telling
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: you and again that they were like crime is crime
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: has been cured in Memphis. No, it hasn't.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 11: No, we put a band aid on.
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 3: Well. Ye, look, I don't think people are carjacking as much,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 3: but even like last night you had what I think
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: five or six people get shot at Memphis two on
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: the interstate. It's not good. Let's go to Kentucky. Pastor John, Hi,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: Pastor John, what's on your mind?
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 19: You know you were talking about the gay pride thing
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 19: at the swimming pool and dent't check and mosques at
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 19: every street corner.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 14: Todd, I have the best chure all.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 20: For all of that.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 19: Since Texas is Texas, you call Taxton calls in the
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 19: Texas Rangers Walker, Texas Rangers style justice, you get rid
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 19: of it, You put an end to it, and you
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 19: enforce the laws of the Great State of Texas. Problem solved,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 19: What would you expect?
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: Well, hold on what pastored? And I'm curious here, So
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: let's say you have, you know, God rest his soul,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 3: Chuck Norris. But let's say Chuck Norris came back and
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 3: was leading the Texas Rangers. I'm not sure how they
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 3: would handle, you know, a swimming pool filled with about
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 3: seventy five big harry men and thongs.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 19: Well, first of all, they would probably before the thing
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 19: opened up, Todd As, they would tactically surround the area
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 19: with constantina wire and just shut the operation down. Or honestly,
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 19: this is Texas, okay, where guns are welcome and other
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 19: things aren't. If they enforced the laws of the great.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: Stated So you're telling me Texas is a thong free zone.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 20: I would like to think so, Todd.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 3: But you know what, I have a solution to hold on, Pastor.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: I've got a solution here. You know, Dylan, you've seen this.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: You've been at the big public swimming pools and they
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 3: got the lifeguards there and they've got you know that
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: there are leaves or whatever in the pool. What do
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 3: they do? They had the huge net, right, and so
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: they scooped the They scoop all the stuff out so
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: that maybe that's what they get it and just scoop
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 3: up the the you know, the the really big swimmers
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: clothes and thongs.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 11: What is that made out of?
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 3: I'm just I'm just spitballing here, man, I'm spitballing. All right.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 20: The Texas Rangers, brother, that's what they got to do.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 3: So the Texas Rangers, all right, this is not a
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: bad idea. The problem is, you know, they have a
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: new they had a new iteration, a Walker Texas Ranger.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw this, but unfortunately, oh
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: it was terrible. Yeah. Walker, the new Walker Texas Ranger
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: was like manscaping and he was sort of like a
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: metro metrosexual walker.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 19: Checkas skipping, then that's what you call it. But there's
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 19: only one true Walker, and that is the late great,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 19: god loving Christian Conservative, the late.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: Great Chuck north Amen. Well said Pastor John. Yeah, the
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: new guys like he was getting in touch with his
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 3: feelings and it was just too much for me. He
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: was basically, you know, a woman with him here, Pastor John.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 11: You heard too much of it. Couldn't take it.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: You're right, the net wouldn't work. I was working through
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: the logistics.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 11: Maybe like a crane or something. Well, yeah, like one
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 11: of those claw machines, like.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 3: A bulldozer you could bring down just scoop, you know,
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: scoop and you know, but.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 11: It's like built into the pool so you can operate
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 11: it as the lifeguard, do the double you know, knock
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 11: out two birds of one stone.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: My favorite we were talking about that. My favorite pool
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 3: scene was in Caddy Shack. Have you seen Caddy Shack?
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: I have not? Dylan, What is wrong with your generation?
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 3: Have you not seen?
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 11: Helen is shaming me too? What is with this movie?
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a great comedy of all time and there
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: are so many great lines there. Of course, the late
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: great Rodney danger Field was one of the stars. And
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: there's a scene which was the infamous swimming pool scene,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: and I'm sure Helen is aware of where they thought
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 3: that somebody had had an accident in the pool and
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: people are like running and screaming for the It's kind
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: of like a Jaws. They had the Jaws of Music
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: and dom Don Don done and you could see it.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 3: It was just like floating. They're on the top of
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: the pool.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 11: Okay, I have seen that scene.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: This log like, yes, yes, And it turned out to
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: be a baby room.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, I yes, that part I've seen, not the rest.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: Of the Shockingly, when I saw that as a kid,
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 3: that was the last time I ever went swimming and
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: last time I ever had a baby roof. I said, yeah,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: I understand. I'm good. There, I'm good. There, there you are.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: again nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 21: You know.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: I we we should have given this a bit more hype,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 3: and maybe we'll talk more about it later. But one
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: of the things we do, in addition to our one
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: hour or three hour radio show and the one hour
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 3: Newsman Show, is that I host a daily commentary and
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: they're like they're two one minute commentaries, and many, many,
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 3: many stations around the nation carry this commentary. We are
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: now celebrating, like our fifteenth anniversary of doing those commentaries,
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 3: so that's pretty exciting milestone and a lot of people
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: say it reminds them of what the old Paul Hervey
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: used to do, Paul Hervey News and comment and then
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 3: we have the Todd Stenge News and commentary. So anyway,
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: thank you to all of the great stations around the
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: nation that are broadcasting our commentaries as we celebrate our
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: fifteenth anniversary. We're very excited about it and we're just
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: going to keep on keeping on. You know, we're not

• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: we're just excited to be able to broadcast you every

• 1:15:40
  Speaker 3: three of the Big Show. We'll be right back.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty Universe Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: America's favorite gun, total Bible clinging, deplorable America, American.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: Tod starts.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 3: Interesting article on CNBC. Hello, everybody, welcome to hour three
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 3: of the Todd Sterns Radio Show. An organization called Foundation
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 3: Future Industries. They want to start putting humanoid robots in
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: the in the military now. The startup has already tested
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: it's humanoid robots in Ukraine, and they're hoping to bring
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 3: this sort of technology into the US military. The Robotics
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: Company recently, believe it or not, brought on Eric Trump
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 3: of the President's sun as a chief strategy advisor, and
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: by chief strategy advisor, it means he's got he's got
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 3: the president's cell phone number. Silicon Valley is now racing
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: to build humanoid robots that can fold laundry and poor
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 3: a latte. At least one startup sees a very different
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: use for the technology war or other potentially hazardous and
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: deadly jobs. May I just stop right there? Are you
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 3: guys in all of this, the humanoid robots? And would
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: you hire a or do you hire them? Do you
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: rent them? How do you what do you do? Do
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: you own them. At that point, do you become like
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 3: a slave owner. I mean, if the humanoid robot, you're
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: not paying the humanoid robot right to fold your laundry,
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: poor a latte. I have many questions about this. I'm
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: not sure how I would feel about having a robot
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: just sort of like working about, like even here in
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 3: the building. Could you imagine, Dylan, if we had like
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: a at KWAM, the news radio station I owned. Could
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 3: you imagine if we had like robots reading the news.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 11: No, no, I'm scared, I'll take my job because he
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 11: probably didn't cost that much.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 3: Well, the problem is the robots would not know how
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 3: to say Maine, come on Maine.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it's that.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 3: It's a whole Memphis dialect.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 11: Yeah, years and years of history. You have to program in.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: Eat come on Maine. No, it doesn't work. Foundation Future
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 3: Industries they are developing dual use autonomous humanoid robots for
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 3: both heavy industrial environments and military applications. Well, the robots
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 3: sound like something out of a Terminator science fiction movie.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 3: They are nearing reality, with early iterations undergoing test in
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: Ukraine for potential use in Kiev's war against Russia. Now
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: core to the company's mission is the belief that humanoid
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 3: robots should be put towards humanity's greatest challenges rather than
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 3: household chores and service roles. Really, well, have you seen
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 3: some of the bathrooms across America. I think that you
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: could say that would be one of humanity's greatest challenges,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 3: cleaning the bathroom.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 11: I think the BUCkies employee that works in the bathroom
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 11: is a humanoid robot.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 3: Oh you think so.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 11: I mean, who would want to you have to live
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 11: in that bathroom?
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 3: That is true, you do.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 11: I mean that's us, But I can't imagine how terrible
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 11: it is for them.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: It's your domain, Yeah, that is your domain, and it's
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 3: got to be sparkling clean.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 11: True, And.
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: That's why, you know, I think one of the reasons
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 3: why I think they don't allow you to eat the
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 3: burritos on campus, right, there's no place to sit and eat.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 11: Now, it's take it outside you do, far.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 3: Far away downwind. So anyway, these humanoid robots, they're they're
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 3: basically saying that the better use would be for them
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 3: to fight our wars as opposed to humans. And I'm
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 3: curious to hear your thoughts on this. By the way,
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two sikes.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two sakes.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 3: The foundation CEO, his name is send Kate Paythat. He says,
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 3: I'm convinced that technology is reaching a level where it
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 3: can replace jobs that are dangerous for humans to perform.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: And if you can do that, it's the highest net
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: good you can create out of all applications of robotics.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm wondering while they're introducing these robots and
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: they're scary looking. They look like they could kill you,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: because they can. My question would be, and my concern
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 3: would be, let's just say that you're I don't own Amazon.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 3: One day and you're looking to hire You're looking to
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 3: hire a lady robot to wash dishes, to rotate your tires,
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 3: to change the oil in your car, you know, all
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 3: these things, and you accidentally get one of the military
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 3: robots instead. What happens at that point? Who's liable? The
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: startup has set ambitious targets for itself. They're planning to
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 3: scale production to thousands of units this year and to
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 3: begin frontline testing with the US military within the next
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 3: eighteen months. The plans and the firms growing ties to
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 3: DC represent yet another example of how artificial intelligence and
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 3: robotics are beginning to transform modern warfare and become a
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 3: focus of national security. I mean, in some ways, I
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 3: just thinking about this if all of these advancements continue.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, at what point, are for example, fighter jets
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: irrelevant when you can just send a drone up? This
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 3: is all fascinating. Soon after the foundation started there was
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: another group called Cobalt Robotics, and they've got ties with
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 3: General motors. Oh great, so now you're going to have
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 3: like the robots driving your cars. That's where I do
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 3: draw the line. I just I just have a big
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 3: problem with that. The ongoing test are backed by the
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 3: US government and conducted with Ukrainian officials, focused on logistics
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: and hazardous areas. The war, now in its fifth year,
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 3: is seeing the use of ground robots to deliver supplies
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: to the front line, and autonomous and AI augmented drones
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 3: for procision, precision strikes and reconnaissance. You know, I could
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 3: go with like a grub Hub style, you know. I mean,
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 3: if the robots are going to deliver your food, maybe
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 3: they can get it faster to you without an attitude.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 3: Do you have to tip the robots.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 11: Maybe with oil, could be you never know.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 3: The Foundation aims to send you and improved robots to
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: Ukraine this year in the form of it's Phantom two.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: The company says the robots will come with superhuman abilities
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 3: and double the payload capacity of Phantom one. I just
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 3: see this all ending very very badly, and only because
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: I've seen the Terminator movies. But if you're in the
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 3: military now, you know what will that look like five
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: ten years from now? Will humans actually be able to
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 3: join the military or will we get to a point
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 3: where we just use I don't know, these robot you know,
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: these robot brigades. All right, I gotta take a break here.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 3: six twelve, be right back. Oh boy, So the left
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: wingers over at people for the American Way. These people
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: are sleeve balls. One of the chiefs Lee's Balls is
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 3: a guy by the name of Kyle Mantalia. And this
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 3: guy has been, like I know, was stalking me for gosh,
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 3: fifteen years or so. It's this weird man. So anyway,
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 3: they're all upset because I am of something I asked
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 3: on news or something I said on newsbags and I
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 3: stand by what I said. If I was invited to
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 3: actually host one of the debates, I would ask James Tallerico,
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 3: who is a thirty seven year old man who, by
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 3: the way, says he has yet to come to terms
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 3: with his masculinity. I was going to ask him, have
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 3: you now come to terms with your manhood? Or do you, sir,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 3: perhaps have an affinity for Philly underpants. I think it's
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 3: a pretty fair question.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 9: Oh.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 3: By the way, the girlfriend has now emerged. A lot
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 3: of people were like, does the guy have a girlfriend?
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 3: And so then he announced that he doesn't. Does in
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 3: fact have a girlfriend? Dylan, and I kid you not.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 3: The woman says that she loves to out at gay bars.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 11: Someone needs to tell him.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure. I'm not sure this will Maybe that's
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 3: how they met. I don't know. And by the way,
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 3: what do I care? What does anybody care? You know,
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 3: it's come on.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 11: They became best friends at the gay bar. That's the story.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 3: What is it about the women?
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 21: Though?
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 3: The women love to have what did they call them?
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: Like a gay friend, gay best friend and gay best friend.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 3: Maybe that's what we're talking about here.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 11: That's tough.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 3: But again, what do I care? But he's out there,
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 3: and it seems like the harder he tries to prove
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 3: that he's a man, it comes across. I'm a man,
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 3: Jazz Hans. I just just be honest with everybody, that's all.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 3: Just be honest with yourself, that's all. I am really
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 3: excited about this story from the New York Post. This
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 3: story makes me happy. Ladies and gentlemen. Here's the headline.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 3: A shocking number of millennial and gen Z parents spank
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 3: their kids. It's according to a new study. Gen Z
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 3: parents say spanking is necessary to raise a child properly.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 3: I love this. The new study found a large swath
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 3: of gen Z and millennial parents still use spanking as
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 3: a form of punishment. This is according to the Canadian
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 3: Journal of Public Health. The research revealed that when this
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 3: demographic of parents was asked whether they had ever spanked
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 3: their child, about twenty percent said yes. Meanwhile, forty five
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 3: percent of gen xers say they spank their kids. Yeah.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 3: And look how we turned out, right, we turned out
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 3: great gen Xers. We're good folk. Experts those say the
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 3: practice of spanking is not beneficial and carry serious long
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 3: term consequences. Doctor Esha Mannering telling the New York Post,
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 3: I generally do not recommend physical discipline. Miss Manning is
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 3: a doctor, pediatrician, parenting expert, and a mother. I bet
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 3: her kids are little Hellians. I'm just telling you, She says.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 3: While it may result in compliance in the moment, it
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 3: does so through fear, rather than by teaching the deeper
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: skills children actually need, such as self regulation or sound judgment.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 3: You see. I would sincerely disagree with her of this.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 3: I think a good, swift smack to the bottom will
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 3: self regulate a whole lot of bad behavior. While younger
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: generations use less discipline than their predecessors, fifteen percent of
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 3: the adult surveyed reported believing that spanking was necessary to
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 3: raise a child properly. She cites a Mannering says that
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 3: physical discipline can normalize the use of force as a
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 3: response to frustration or conflict. Meanwhile, a twenty seventeen study
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 3: found that she children who are spanked are more likely
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 3: to become violent with a romantic partner later in life.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 3: I do not believe that. I don't believe it. The
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 3: World Health Organization defines corporal punishment, as as any in
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 3: which physical forces used and intended to cause some degree
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 3: of pain or discomfort. Yes, we call them butt weapons.
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: That's what we call them. The American Academy of Pediatrics
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: strongly discouraged spanking of its nineteen ninety eight clinical report,
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 3: and in twenty eighteen they flat out abolished it. They say,
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: although many children who are spank become happy, healthy adults,
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 3: current evidence suggests spanking is not necessary and may result
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 3: in long term harm. Really, ladies and gentlemen, I'm curious
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 3: your thoughts on that. Do you believe that spanking your
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 3: children has called world has caused world wide harm? Our
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 3: telephone number nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 3: two six. Again that number, nine oh one two six
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 3: zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Starn Show.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back, let's get right to the phones.
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 3: Here nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 3: Don in Houston, Texas, listening to us on Patriot Talk
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 3: nine twenty Don, what's on your mind?
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 9: Well, I thought I would weigh in. I have a
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 9: couple of questions for you, but I thought I would
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 9: weigh in on the whipping part of it. You asked
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 9: a question. Uh, I got my last for my dad
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 9: when I was twelve years old. I deserved it. I
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 9: knew I deserved it. I got it. I had no
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 9: disrespect for my dad. I love my dad tremendously and
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 9: he gave me what is commonly termed tough love, and
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 9: I decided at that time I didn't want any more
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 9: of those, and so I've tried to be a pretty
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 9: good person. Ever sinks. I think that there's times in
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 9: anybody's life that's raising a child when they have to
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 9: exhibit some tough love. I don't mean beat a kid,
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 9: but it means give him a whipping. I mean, you've
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 9: got there has to be reward and punishment. If you
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 9: do good, you're rewarded. If you do bad, you're punished.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 9: And that's just my personal opinion on that.
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 3: You know, don I remember my dad was the same way,
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 3: and he was the disciplinarian in the household, and you know,
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 3: and I'm with you. I mean, I I don't recall
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 3: a single time that I did not deserve, you know,
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 3: to get to get a spanking. But one of the
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 3: things I did take my dad to task on years later,
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 3: when he said, son, this is gonna hurt me more
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 3: than it's gonna hurt you. I really don't believe that
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: to be the case.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 9: Don You're definitely right about that. I've never got that party. Okay,
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 9: now we've covered that. What's going on with AOC. I
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 9: haven't been able to listen to the news for a
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 9: while and I'm just now getting back good and my
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 9: wife told me that something he's been punished or something.
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 9: Is that true?
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 3: No, The last I heard about AOC is that she's
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 3: thinking about literally running for a president of the United
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 3: States and twenty eight that's I mean, that's the big news.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 3: And otherwise, yeah, I think she's just out there endorsing
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 3: a lot of far left candidates. So that's about all
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 3: I've That's about all I've heard false news.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 9: That's why I ask you the other thing of our
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 9: last question, and I'll hang up and let you talk
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 9: to me about it. What's been decided from the President
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 9: Now that we understand that Iran has said, no, we're
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 9: going to keep the bay her mouth, We're just going
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 9: to go ahead and take it back over, and all
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 9: that we're rejecting all the President's recommendations and all that
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 9: we're not going with them. Put America says, are we
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 9: going to go ahead and take them out and take
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 9: care of it? Or are we going to billy dally
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 9: around like we've been doing for ages.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 3: Don I'm leaning towards dilly dally. I think the president
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 3: should have gone in, we should have cleaned house from
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 3: day one, and that did not happen. And now what
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 3: I think is happening inside the White House is you're
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 3: getting a lot of different presidential advisors giving very different
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 3: answers to questions, and I think the President's trying to
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 3: figure out what which way to go. I think he
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 3: needs to listen to his gut on this. I think
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 3: we need to again, the original point of all of
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 3: this was to go in and get, you know, to
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 3: dismantle and destroy the nuclear facilities. And if we've done that,
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 3: let's declare victory, show the evidence to clear victory, and
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 3: move on with our lives.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 9: I'm with you, I'm with you. Yeah, how many times
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 9: can a person lie to you before you start to
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 9: disbelieve anything they say?
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 3: It's a great question, you raise your don and how
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 3: many times do we have to go through this? It's
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 3: it's so I mean, so predictable. We know what Iran
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 3: is going to do because they've done it time and
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 3: time again, so again we'll see. I know there was
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 3: some US air strikes overnight, but again this we can't
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: have this go on forever. We just can't.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 9: I enjoy your program. I love you. Keep doing what
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 9: you're doing, and pray for America.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 3: Amen, don Amen, thank you for listening to Patriot Talk. Now,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 3: twenty good people down there at the radio station. All right,
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: let's go to David Memphis, Tennessee, listening to us on
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 3: k w a M. David, you were the guy that
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: got me plugged into the Memphis Italian Festival.

  Speaker 22: I was coming to see how North Mississippi's newest Italian
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 22: gravy judge was doing well.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm I'm doing well. I paced myself and
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 3: you know, the good news is there were no like
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 3: noodles or anything. So it was like straight sauce. When
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 3: you know that that I had to judge over the
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 3: weekend gravy, I'm sorry, it is gravy. I should have
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 3: learned my goodness. So so, David, that was pretty impressive
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 3: and you had I didn't realize how many judges were
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 3: involved in all of this.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah.

• 1:36:07
  Speaker 3: voice from somewhere and he said, I can't figure it out,
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 3: and so I let him up. We had a little
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 3: bit of fun and then he was like, oh my gosh,

• 1:36:16
  Speaker 3: had a good, a good conversation there and really met

  Speaker 22: get to see a lot of that. I'm behind the
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 22: scenes six and what gets broke here and there and
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 22: keeping the power on.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 3: So you know, I did run into about seven or
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 3: eight guys and gals. They're from the National Guard. They
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 3: were all from out of state and they were just
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 3: having the time of their lives. So went over and
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 3: you know, said hello to them, and we thanked them
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 3: for all the great work they're doing. But they certainly

  Speaker 3: seem to be having a good time out there.
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 22: Oh yeah, they were out there throwing footballs with kids
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 22: and playing around and doing all sorts of great things.
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 11: Wow.

  Speaker 3: I didn't realize we had that many Italians here in
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 3: the Mid South. Great representation, yep, quite a few, all right.
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 3: And then there were some though, I will thinking one
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 3: of them was like, O'Reilly, and I'm like, that doesn't
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 3: sound very Italian to me. But you know, well, David,
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 3: thank you so much for the invitation. What a great honor.

• 1:37:52
  Speaker 22: Well, you were on the you were on the gravy side,

  Speaker 22: And then we and then we have the cornhole tournament
• 1:38:09

• 1:38:50
  Speaker 3: No parking, no park So the good news is, I
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 3: mean I parked about a mile away. But you get,
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 3: you get, you get your steps. But it's like three
• 1:39:01

• 1:39:03
  Speaker 3: percent here in Memphis.
• 1:39:05

• 1:39:07
  Speaker 11: pretty good at the stomping competition.
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I think you would have. I think
• 1:39:11

  Speaker 11: Out, probably wear Siice fourteen shoe. Yeah, not to tot
• 1:39:15

  Speaker 23: Right, welcome back to GMA. And that was an amazing
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 23: performance by Pride SAUCEA helping us kick off Pride Month
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 23: celebrations here at GMA. Shine a light on and the
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 23: beauty of the LGBTQ plus community. And this morning, it's
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 23: all about the dance floor.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 16: Yes, dance.
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 23: Salsa is not just music and dance, It's a feeling.
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 23: V mal pre Deep, originally from India, fell in love
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 23: with that feeling before moving to New York City, eager
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 23: to create a safe space for people like him to
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 23: embrace salsa out loud.
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 21: Many of my friends on the Queer team came to
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 21: know about my salsa dance experience.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 2: They were like, oh, you should teach.
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 24: We should do a very clear, eccentric salsa class.
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 23: In twenty twenty three, PREDEP began instructing classes with the
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 23: goal of creating a more inclusive approach to the dance and.
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 16: The traditional salsa scene.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 12: The gender rules are pretty strict.
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 2: Women follow memory.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 25: It's a man dance with a woman, women dance with man,
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 25: and it's pretty hard finding a spot where I would
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 25: feel comfortable doing the woman. And so when I found
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 25: themal and his mission, everybody dances with everybody.
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 23: Pride Saucer had now blossomed into a vibrant community.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 24: But to me, it's just not the dance alone, it's
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 24: the people that I get to do that with. And
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 24: if we can do it freely without any judgment, that's
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 24: the best feeling ever.
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 23: And yes, same with joy. Now we're here now with
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 23: Vima Pretteep. He is the founder and owner of Pride
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 23: Saucer and Wimar. Thank you so much for being here
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 23: with us. And how does it make you feel to
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 23: grow this dance community?
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 3: I feel thank you for having.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 21: Personally for me, it's about building home far away from home,
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 21: which is India for me.
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 11: And also dancing is a form of.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 21: Resistance and liberation and especially as queer bodies dancing together
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 21: we all of it. It means a lot to us.
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 21: Hopefully it's the same for all the.
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 3: Stop stop slap, stop Siddy Dylan. I'm curious here so
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 3: they want queer bodies dancing together. I get that, but
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 3: why do you have to do that on Good Morning
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: America in front of God and country and people just
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 3: having their first kupa senka for crying out loud.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a good question, all very odd, the weird
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 11: way to describe it, exactly exactly.
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 3: So anyway, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. That's
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 3: the focus of Good Morning America. And they spent like
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 3: five or six minutes on this entire segment. So when
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 3: you step back and you have to ask yourself, out
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 3: of all the things that were happening in America today,
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 3: all of the incredible celebrations that are happening, graduations and
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 3: good hearted things that are happening, you're telling me that
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 3: the most important thing on Good Morning America is a
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 3: as an Indian salsa dancer, who, by the way, he
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 3: should be accused of cultural appropriation because I thought salsa
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 3: dancing was actually you know, I thought salsa dancing was
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 3: like from south of the border, not India. But again
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 3: that's just me. Nine oh one two six zero five
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 3: nine two six is our telephone over, that's nine oh
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. Let's go
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 3: to Gainesville Georgia. Doug, wdun, Doug, what say you?
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 26: If I'm not mistaken, Todd, I think I heard one
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 26: of those gentlemen say it's the best feeling ever. Well,
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 26: I don't think he's telling us the truth, and I'll
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 26: leave it as that.
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 3: Oh Jesus Lord, thank you, Thank.
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 2: You, Doug.
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 11: I don't want to think about that.
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 3: I'll either. I really don't either. All right, let's try
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 3: to work in another call here. Let's go to the
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 3: Panhandle of Oklahoma, Ka ge Wyan, great radio station, mag
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: What is on your mind?
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 20: How's going, Todd? I'm glad you're healthy and back at
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 20: it again.
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 3: Thank you, sir, modern radio.
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 20: We lost an iconic Rush Limbaugh, and you guys are
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 20: doing an outstanding job. And I love your radio show.
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 20: And I'm glad you're healthy again.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 3: Thank you, sir. Appreciate that.
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 20: What's on the mind is the Iranian conflict. It's just
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 20: we can't get united over it. Seems like the country
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 20: can't get united very easily over anything. Maybe our celebration
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 20: two hundred and fifty celebration will do some of that.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 20: But you are two days and two years older than me,
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 20: so I relate to you big time. We kind of
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 20: grew up with some great, great memories and I wish
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 20: we could have that again.
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 3: Well I do too. I remember the big, you know,
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 3: big celebration in nineteen seventy six, the two hundredth anniversary,
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 3: and I mean it was really a unique fun time
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 3: in the country. And you know, I I think we're
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 3: seeing aspects of that here. But but Mac, I I
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 3: think I think you're right. The country is divided. At
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 3: least that's the way the media likes to portray things,
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 3: and unfortunately that's just the way things are right now.
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 3: But with this Iran war, we've just you know, the
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 3: president's going to have to say, Okay, here's here's how we're.
• 1:47:21
  Speaker 2: Going to do this.
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 3: Let's do it, get it over with, get it done,
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 3: and let's get on with our lives.
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 20: I agree with one hundred percent. But there is a caveat,
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 20: a caveat on my side, and that is the Iranian
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 20: people that want change must be have some kind of
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 20: small arms or something to make a stand. They are
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 20: just helpless. You've seen what the what forty thousand they
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 20: can oh yeah, yeah, So that's just unacceptable for a
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 20: country that has no voice, with like two percent of
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 20: the population in control of the country.
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 3: So mac I gotta I gotta leave it there, my friend,
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 3: because we're rapping the show. But you're absolutely right there,
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 3: and that is a fine caveat folks. We'll see it
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 3: in at five o'clock Eastern on Newsmax.
