  Speaker 4: For you, from Joe Thomas, it's First Thing Today. Joe

• 0:35
  Speaker 8: Bless you for letting me be of service to you
• 0:37
  Speaker 8: this Friday morning.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: I want to be your Joe.
• 0:40
  Speaker 8: You know, I know it's nostalgic to do that whole
• 0:43
  Speaker 8: TGI Friday thing, and I know the college football scene
• 0:47
  Speaker 8: kicking off this week, but, you know, I get the
• 0:50
  Speaker 8: Friday vibe, but.
• 0:57
  Speaker 9: He said there's something important that he needs right now
• 1:00
  Speaker 9: that's unspecified.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I go to work.
• 1:02
  Speaker 10: He says he knows I put in a long week,
• 1:05
  Speaker 10: but he's got to be in PCB, so he needs me, so.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: I go to work.
• 1:09
  Speaker 8: And Fred's due next week, so. That's right. We go
• 1:12
  Speaker 8: to work, so. And time has marched, and I've worked
• 1:16
  Speaker 8: in my fair share of. resort communities. And I know
• 1:19
  Speaker 8: that the bosses always wanted us to be upbeat about
• 1:23
  Speaker 8: Fridays because that was when all the people came to
• 1:26
  Speaker 8: town and we wanted them coming out to our parties
• 1:29
  Speaker 8: and drinking our beers and staying in our hotels. But
• 1:35
  Speaker 8: I always approach Friday as that time to gird your
• 1:38
  Speaker 8: loins and get into the defensive position because they were
• 1:41
  Speaker 8: arriving soon and you're going to have to go to work.
• 1:45
  Speaker 8: And maybe that's why I have a different attitude on
• 1:47
  Speaker 8: Fridays because I was always interested in the locals when
• 1:51
  Speaker 8: I worked in those resort communities more so than I
• 1:53
  Speaker 8: was interested in the wash ashores. So I always came
• 1:58
  Speaker 8: at it from the Brace yourselves, boys. Here they come
• 2:01
  Speaker 8: again kind of idea. And it was okay. I never
• 2:06
  Speaker 8: got into the whole Cape Cod, let's throw a party
• 2:09
  Speaker 8: when the last tourists leave. That's 90% of your economy,
• 2:14
  Speaker 8: and you're happy they're gone. I mean, granted, you're from
• 2:19
  Speaker 8: New England, and generally that's how people in Cape Cod
• 2:23
  Speaker 8: view anyone who's not from Cape Cod. And trust me,
• 2:27
  Speaker 8: if you ever move to Hyannis or you have an
• 2:29
  Speaker 8: offer to move to Hyannis, understand one thing. If your
• 2:32
  Speaker 8: family did not get off the Mayflower in Provincetown, you
• 2:36
  Speaker 8: are considered a wash ashore. A come here, not from here,
• 2:41
  Speaker 8: as it were. But we go to work. We're here
• 2:44
  Speaker 8: at City Elders for their weekly get-together. Common Ground, great
• 2:49

• 3:33
  Speaker 8: threaten it. Chief of Naval Operations is warning that a

  Speaker 11: They love being part of something that reflects and promotes
• 7:21
  Speaker 11: their values and what they believe in.

  Speaker 2: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I'm Dr.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: Mitch.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,
• 8:57

  Speaker 12: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
• 9:05
  Speaker 12: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
• 9:10
  Speaker 12: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
• 9:13
  Speaker 12: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
• 9:16
  Speaker 12: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 9:21
  Speaker 12: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
• 9:25
  Speaker 12: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
• 9:29
  Speaker 12: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
• 9:33
  Speaker 12: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
• 9:37
  Speaker 12: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
• 9:42
  Speaker 12: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
• 9:46
  Speaker 12: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov.
• 9:53
  Speaker 12: Share this information with your friends and family.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: Hi, everybody.
• 9:59
  Speaker 9: I'm Jack Hanna.
• 10:00
  Speaker 13: Since I was a boy growing up on a farm
• 10:01
  Speaker 13: in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only
• 10:04
  Speaker 13: in awe of their beauty and kindness, but also their
• 10:07
  Speaker 13: tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds who gather
• 10:09
  Speaker 13: supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who work hard
• 10:13
  Speaker 13: to provide for their young, or penguins who travel up
• 10:16
  Speaker 13: to 500 miles to secure food for their families, or
• 10:18
  Speaker 13: bush babies whose impressive jump allows them to navigate the
• 10:21
  Speaker 13: trees and the wild in search of fruit. This remarkable
• 10:24
  Speaker 13: work ethic is shared by our best friends, the canines.
• 10:27
  Speaker 13: We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home, but
• 10:30
  Speaker 13: because of their acute senses, they also perform life-saving work
• 10:33
  Speaker 13: every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They comfort
• 10:36
  Speaker 13: returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They work
• 10:39
  Speaker 13: with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in their
• 10:42
  Speaker 13: blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly trained
• 10:45
  Speaker 13: roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
• 10:47
  Speaker 13: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
• 10:50
  Speaker 13: heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
• 10:53
  Speaker 13: planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.

  Speaker 14: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah?
• 11:01
  Speaker 15: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 11:04
  Speaker 16: And now a speech.
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 13: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
• 11:15
  Speaker 17: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
• 11:18
  Speaker 17: somebody call me a ride.
• 11:19
  Speaker 8: Love that guy.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Me too.
• 11:21
  Speaker 7: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 11:28
  Speaker 10: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 11:31
  Speaker 10: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 11:35
  Speaker 10: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 11:39
  Speaker 10: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 11:42
  Speaker 10: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 11:46
  Speaker 10: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 11:51
  Speaker 10: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 11:54
  Speaker 10: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 11:58
  Speaker 10: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 12:00
  Speaker 10: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 12:04
  Speaker 10: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 12:07
  Speaker 10: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 12:11
  Speaker 10: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.

• 12:29
  Speaker 18: As a family member or friend, you may be the
• 12:32
  Speaker 18: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 12:35
  Speaker 18: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
• 12:40
  Speaker 18: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.

• 13:16
  Speaker 4: First thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas. Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom,
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: I ran.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, I ran.
• 13:27
  Speaker 20: So, I.
• 13:29
  Speaker 8: Hate to sound like a broken record. Broken record, broken record,
• 13:34
  Speaker 8: broken record.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: And I'm unique in the crowd pointing out that.
• 13:38
  Speaker 8: For some time, There are multiple Irans right now. And
• 13:53
  Speaker 8: you have to understand, so when the foreign ministers out
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: there on, what was it, Lebanese TV yesterday, and say,
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: not us, we're not trying to kill Barron Trump, no.
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: And people are like, well, you know, what are these
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: lying SOBs all about? So when.
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: This guy, Mosen Rezai, is out there saying, we're not
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: trying to do it. It's part and parcel of, I
• 14:30
  Speaker 8: don't know if it's intentionally deceptive or if it's just
• 14:36
  Speaker 8: sloppy or maybe we've just stopped teaching journalists to know
• 14:43
  Speaker 8: the difference between Or even to be able to tell
• 14:47
  Speaker 8: the difference. And because there's important parts to breaking the
• 14:53
  Speaker 8: people of Iran away from the mullahs, you know, the
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: people who have had 40,000 of their compatriots hung in
• 15:03
  Speaker 8: town squares all around the country because they did stuff
• 15:08
  Speaker 8: like call in to radio shows. Well, I don't think
• 15:12
  Speaker 8: they have talk radio in Iran per se, but When
• 15:15
  Speaker 8: you call in here to 434-882-4217 and complain about President Trump,
• 15:23
  Speaker 8: ostensibly you're doing the same heretical thing that got people
• 15:27
  Speaker 8: hung in the town square in Tehran. You can't speak
• 15:37
  Speaker 8: out against the government. You can't say, you know, oh,
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: President Trump's going to do this or President Trump's going to...
• 15:44
  Speaker 8: Or I was told by Rachel Maddow that.
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: So there's the Iranian militia, this Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps,
• 16:01
  Speaker 8: who are badasses. And they're well-armed, probably more well-armed and
• 16:06
  Speaker 8: well-trained than the Iranian army is. They work for the mullahs.
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: They work for the council of experts. And Ayatollah Jr.,
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: in whatever condition Trump yesterday, saying, no, no, no, no,
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: he's alive. He's alive. He's really badly broken, but he's alive.
• 16:38
  Speaker 8: And they're saying, and I will bet you a dollar
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: to a drachma or two million real, however you want
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: to trade it, that they're the ones who have the
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: plot to assassinate Barron Trump. They probably also have a
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: plot to assassinate Melania Trump and Ivanka. Everyone except Tiffany. Sorry, Tiffany.
• 17:02
  Speaker 8: They're coming after you. You and Marla just burn up
• 17:05
  Speaker 8: the Internet. That will be their punishment. Their punishment to
• 17:11
  Speaker 8: the president is they'll come and kill everyone except Marla
• 17:15
  Speaker 8: Maples and Tiffany Trump. And I'm not making light of
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: assassination threats. I'm saying that when our press tells you
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: Iran is doing this, and they're not wrong, but it's
• 17:29
  Speaker 8: incomplete information. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or some terrorist
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: adjunct to their has got a plot to assassinate Barron Trump.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: And judging by the organization of the stories that I read,
• 17:46
  Speaker 8: it sure looks like a group like the Islamic Revolutionary
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: Guard Corps are the ones with the plans to assassinate
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: Barron Trump. But what we're trying to do, as far
• 18:02
  Speaker 8: as I can tell, is separate the people of Iran
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: and the people they've elected... from the Ayatollahs. Because when
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: the Ayatollah moved in, when Khomeini moved in, moved back
• 18:21
  Speaker 8: from Paris, came out of exile, deposed the Shah, technically
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: the government stayed the same. The Ayatollah and this council
• 18:35
  Speaker 8: of experts just took over the executive powers of the Shah.
• 18:43
  Speaker 8: And there's a bigger story, kids, boys and girls, process matters.
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: And there were people who, you know, laugh when I
• 18:53
  Speaker 8: talk about, you know, who's going to be the next president. Ah,
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: Trump's never leaving. Dude, Trump's 80 anyway. Even if he
• 19:02
  Speaker 8: was to suspend, it's got a lot of years left.
• 19:08
  Speaker 8: We hope, not wishing ill, I'm just saying that America
• 19:13
  Speaker 8: was built on process. And this is one of the
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: things that Barack Obama burned up, Harry Reid burned up.
• 19:21
  Speaker 8: To be fair, Mitch McConnell, may he rest in peace,
• 19:24
  Speaker 8: burned up. Sorry, that's for my friends, hometown radio in Danville.
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: Any Mitch sightings? We've seen Mitch McConnell about as much
• 19:33
  Speaker 8: as we've seen the Ayatollah of Iran. But the process
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: was burned up in this political pursuit of brinksmanship and myself.
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: has to win so that we can dominate your side.
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: It's the radical. And when you say the word radical,
• 19:57
  Speaker 8: this is what you mean. You're radically changing how the
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: country works. And it's the fault of the left. I
• 20:06
  Speaker 8: will point to the left who go out there and say,
• 20:09
  Speaker 8: I will get you free from your obligations. I will
• 20:13
  Speaker 8: get you free from your college loans. I will get
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: you free from your medical bills. And they're lying. There
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: is nothing in the American Constitution that can do that
• 20:23
  Speaker 8: for them. They have no authority to do that. Ah,
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: but that's not a mistake. They want you to believe
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: that the Constitution is your problem. And a lot of
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: Americans do. I saw a survey, and we'll pull up
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: after the news. But there was a survey talking about
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: the Constitution. And these are, don't tell anyone we're asking
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: if you still believe the U.S. Constitution works for you.
• 20:57
  Speaker 8: And it's still a majority of Americans believe in the U.S. Constitution.
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: But it's a growing number of mostly the youth that don't.
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: Because enough politicians stand in front of them eloquently detailing
• 21:16
  Speaker 8: how they're going to do all these things for them.
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: And they'll show them pictures of homeless encampments saying, you're
• 21:25
  Speaker 8: only one missed medical payment away from being there. But
• 21:29
  Speaker 8: I can fix it for you.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Vote for Democrats.
• 21:31
  Speaker 8: Vote for Democrats. We'll do the good work for you.
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: Selling their indulgences. Oh, no, that was... They were the
• 21:43
  Speaker 8: leaders of that other temple back 2,000-odd years ago. Oops, sorry. 434-882-4217.
• 21:50

  Speaker 21: week's time. But here's the thing, that 150 minutes does

  Speaker 2: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: I'm Dr.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: Mitch.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer. or at
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances,
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even

  Speaker 11: For the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence
• 28:20
  Speaker 11: and the 37 who signed the Constitution.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: And here's to you, Mr. Jefferson. We all miss you

  Speaker 3: more than you will know. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

  Speaker 8: God bless you, please, Mr.

  Speaker 3: Madison. Heaven help these fools that legislate. Rights away. Our

  Speaker 3: rights away.
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: Ah, but they figured it out. Instead of just legislating
• 28:49
  Speaker 8: your rights away, we're going to give you new ones.
• 28:51
  Speaker 8: We're going to invent new ones because I didn't go

  Speaker 8: to college for 12 years for nothing, mister. Thank you
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: for letting me be of service to you as always.
• 29:00
  Speaker 8: So Kato... Cato Institute, along with YouGov, surveyed 2,000 Americans.
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: 85% have a favorable opinion of the U.S. Constitution. That
• 29:10
  Speaker 8: is down from 90% five years ago. 56% believe the U.S.
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: is in a constitutional crisis. Here is the problem, though.
• 29:25
  Speaker 8: Ask them what that means. I don't know. I heard
• 29:29
  Speaker 8: the guy on TV say it. A little guy on
• 29:32
  Speaker 8: the radio says it. What is the– because I'm not
• 29:36
  Speaker 8: going to argue with you that there's a constitutional crisis.
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: You want to know what the constitutional crisis is? And
• 29:42
  Speaker 8: it's not talk radio, and it's not the Tea Party,
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: and it's not MAGA, and it's honestly not even George
• 29:49
  Speaker 8: Soros and the open society people. It is a failure
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: to punish people when they do wrong. I've got a
• 29:55
  Speaker 8: bunch of folks on the line, so enough from me.
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: I will ask you then to tell me what you
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: think of me in a moment. But let me get
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: line two on hold here. Good morning. Who's this? Clark. Hey, Clark.
• 30:07
  Speaker 8: Hang on the line. I've got Kareem ahead of you here.
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: So the dance card is full. I'm like that barber
• 30:14
  Speaker 8: on a Friday right before prom night trying to give
• 30:17
  Speaker 8: everyone a haircut here. Kareem, thank you for hanging on
• 30:20
  Speaker 8: the line. What's on your mind, sir?
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: Oh, Joe, there's a lot to– good morning. Thanks for
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: taking my call. There's a lot to talk about. Well, first,
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: I do applaud the Iranian foreign minister saying that he
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: has no– he, they, we, whatever they are.
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: No, I'm sorry. Not we. Not we. But he, we.
• 30:40
  Speaker 20: Not we.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: They. They.
• 30:43
  Speaker 8: Thank you. Choose your pronouns. Yeah, pronouns will kill you
• 30:46
  Speaker 8: every time.
• 30:49
  Speaker 20: They just might.
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: But they don't have any plan to target Barron single
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: amount for assassination.
• 30:59
  Speaker 8: I do think that's a good thing to say of.
• 31:01
  Speaker 6: People who are– essentially we're in a shitty war, even
• 31:05
  Speaker 6: though there's a little bit of a lull right now,
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: which I'm thankful for peace.
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: I can't tell you enough. But– Honestly, the more dialogue
• 31:14
  Speaker 8: that Iran and U.S.
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: Have between each other, I.
• 31:18
  Speaker 8: Think is important, because the more we talk, the less
• 31:22
  Speaker 8: we shoot. Well, and there's that, and there's also the
• 31:25
  Speaker 8: attitude that if we're making progress, and I still point
• 31:29
  Speaker 8: out the fact that as expensive as your gas is
• 31:31
  Speaker 8: right now, it was more expensive without any war going
• 31:34
  Speaker 8: on under Joe Biden, and the resolution of the nuclear
• 31:39
  Speaker 8: issue is A long-term thing. Short-term is the Strait of
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: Hormuz needs to be a free trade zone. And it
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: seems like, and this is just, you know, heard it
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: from a friend who heard it from a friend who
• 31:54
  Speaker 8: heard it from somebody's press secretary. But it seems like
• 31:58
  Speaker 8: we're getting to a place where the Strait of Hormuz
• 32:01
  Speaker 8: will no longer be that hostage that Iran was always
• 32:05
  Speaker 8: holding to the West saying, don't you come here. Don't
• 32:09
  Speaker 8: you mess with me, Willis. Uh, cause I've got your
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: straight up Hormuz and I'm not afraid to close it down. Um,
• 32:15
  Speaker 8: so knock wood, you know, that's, uh, that's one of
• 32:19
  Speaker 8: the things that will come of this. Most importantly, I
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: want to see the Iranian people not get hung in
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: the street for speaking out against the government when it
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: gets jackassery.
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: Joe, just flashing back 47 years, uh, The Shah, when
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: they deposed him, that was actually happening. 30,000 people rioting
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: in the street. Not rioting, but protesting, and they killed him.
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: And then once they stormed, the palace took over, then
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: they stormed the embassy.
• 32:48
  Speaker 20: They found out, oh, the U.S.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: Was involved. So it's– I hear you. I'm not for
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: government mass executing or– just like Egypt.
• 32:57
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: I have never heard until that sissy, Cece, got in charge,
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: I've never heard about 500 people in a single trial
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: all getting sentenced.
• 33:10
  Speaker 8: To death by hanging. And that happened more than once. Yeah,
• 33:14
  Speaker 8: that Arab Spring was a little stormy, wasn't it? It
• 33:18
  Speaker 8: quite was.
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: But before I take off, Joe, I just wanted to
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: give a shout-out to our Civil Rights Division. They are
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: starting to make more noise about H-1B visa fraud.
• 33:32
  Speaker 8: And I'm seeing.
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: More articles about it.
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: Well, that's an important thing, because we were talking about
• 33:41
  Speaker 8: this poll that said 56% said we were in a
• 33:44
  Speaker 8: constitutional crisis, and I don't disagree. I think a lot
• 33:48
  Speaker 8: of people just hear the phrase, and they see arguments
• 33:51
  Speaker 8: between left and right, and they think that's a constitutional crisis.
• 33:55
  Speaker 8: To me, the constitutional crisis is that when people break
• 33:59
  Speaker 8: the law, nobody is getting punished for it. When people
• 34:03
  Speaker 8: have their civil rights violated, not the ones they're making up,
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: but the ones that we were born into this world
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: with by God, they need to be punished for it.
• 34:13
  Speaker 8: And we're not doing it. We're obfuscating. And it's part
• 34:16
  Speaker 8: of why I talk about this. legal hoarding system that
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: we have. We just keep piling new laws on top
• 34:23
  Speaker 8: of old laws and you never know where the loophole
• 34:26
  Speaker 8: is going to be because we have so much jurisprudence
• 34:30
  Speaker 8: piled up that somebody's going to find a loophole somewhere.
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: Joe, John Roberts didn't take a case about 25 states
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: suing 24 other states over the 2020 election. If they said, no,
• 34:43
  Speaker 6: that's not our problem.
• 34:46
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: The Supreme Court– I'm not talking about stacking. I'm not
• 34:49
  Speaker 6: talking about who gets to control it. But they only
• 34:53
  Speaker 6: take a handful of cases every year. And to apply
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: for Supreme Court consideration, just the stationery costs $ 5, 000 because
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: it has to be printed a special way. Joe– We're
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: a bunch of Nancys in charge and not just Pelosi's.
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: But you have a great day. You too, Kareem. But
• 35:13
  Speaker 8: this is also part and parcel of what I talk about.
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: Process is important. Process means you have to go through
• 35:19
  Speaker 8: certain steps in order to get your to get justice,
• 35:22
  Speaker 8: to seek justice. But way too many Americans view courts
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: in the country as a place to go get screwed.
• 35:31
  Speaker 8: rather than, you know, more so than the brothels around
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: Las Vegas. We view our court system, if you're going
• 35:37
  Speaker 8: into court, you're done. You're getting six months for something.
• 35:42
  Speaker 8: It's that Harvey Silverglate, three felonies a day world has really,
• 35:47
  Speaker 8: I mean, I think if we look wistfully back at
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: just three felonies a day, oh, come on, you're not trying. Dr. Clark,
• 35:53
  Speaker 8: thank you for hanging on the line this Friday morning.
• 35:55
  Speaker 8: What's going on?
• 35:58
  Speaker 15: Courts and brothels.
• 36:01
  Speaker 8: Never thought you'd hear that comparison on the radio, did you?
• 36:04
  Speaker 15: Well, it occurs to me that there's a big fundamental
• 36:08
  Speaker 15: difference between the.
• 36:09
  Speaker 8: Two, Joe. You pay up front for one and you
• 36:15
  Speaker 8: have to pay in your taxes for the other?
• 36:18
  Speaker 15: Well, prostitutes and brothels make no claims to be other
• 36:26
  Speaker 15: than prostitutes, whereas prostitutes prostitutes in the courts claim to
• 36:30
  Speaker 15: be other things. So there's that.
• 36:32
  Speaker 8: Oh, so there's a forthrightness that you're talking about. I
• 36:35
  Speaker 8: get you.
• 36:36
  Speaker 15: Hey, if you screw people for a living, you're a whore, Joe.
• 36:40
  Speaker 15: I don't care what kind of robe you wear. So
• 36:44
  Speaker 15: there you go.
• 36:46
  Speaker 8: Now, you said.
• 36:48
  Speaker 15: Before the news break that there were fewer and fewer
• 36:52
  Speaker 15: young people with favorable opinions of the Constitution. And you
• 36:57
  Speaker 15: talked about the politicians standing in front of them and
• 37:02
  Speaker 15: this having effect. And I agree with that. But we
• 37:06
  Speaker 15: have to acknowledge that these politicians could not enjoy the
• 37:10
  Speaker 15: success that they enjoy without the K-12 teachers and the
• 37:19
  Speaker 15: professors that flatten the hills and straighten the curves to prepare.
• 37:24
  Speaker 8: The way for them. I see what you're saying. So
• 37:26
  Speaker 8: these are the expeditionary force marines who, you know, clear
• 37:30
  Speaker 8: the beach so that the landing team can have an
• 37:33
  Speaker 8: easier go of it.
• 37:36
  Speaker 15: Yeah, that field has been well plowed and prepared for
• 37:41
  Speaker 15: those seeds to be sown long before the politician gets
• 37:45
  Speaker 15: to the young skull full of mush.

  Speaker 25: You were strolling along in goodwill when just past that
• 40:05
  Speaker 25: mid-century side table and denim jacket you spotted them nestled
• 40:09
  Speaker 25: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.

  Speaker 16: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 41:03
  Speaker 16: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 16: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 16: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 41:15
  Speaker 16: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:21
  Speaker 16: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 41:24
  Speaker 16: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:27
  Speaker 16: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:32
  Speaker 16: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 41:36
  Speaker 16: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 43:35
  Speaker 17: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking

  Speaker 17: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,

  Speaker 4: Talk Radio, just the way your mother used to make it.
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: First thing today, by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: I'm afraid of the Russians. I can't sleep at night.
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: So afraid of the Russians. Afraid we've got to fight.
• 44:33
  Speaker 26: It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and
• 44:39
  Speaker 26: it's divided in four basic stages. The first one being demoralization.
• 44:45
  Speaker 26: It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation.
• 44:49
  Speaker 26: Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number
• 44:52
  Speaker 26: of years which requires to educate one generation of students.
• 44:57
  Speaker 26: in the country of your enemy, exposed to the ideology
• 45:02
  Speaker 26: of the enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being
• 45:07
  Speaker 26: pumped into the soft heads of at least three generations
• 45:10
  Speaker 26: of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced.
• 45:13
  Speaker 8: Your point, though, about plowing the field, it's like Bejmanov said,
• 45:17
  Speaker 8: in 1984, three generations of Americans had already been indoctrinated
• 45:22
  Speaker 8: into the Marxist beliefs of, you know, well, fair is fair,
• 45:26
  Speaker 8: and all these things that You know, parents, it sounded okay.
• 45:31
  Speaker 8: Be nice to each other. That's great. Give up the
• 45:33
  Speaker 8: things you have because somebody else doesn't have. That's a
• 45:36
  Speaker 8: great concept and something Jesus taught us. But to do
• 45:40
  Speaker 8: it or go to jail is crossing a Rubicon. And
• 45:44
  Speaker 8: that's where we found ourselves after three or four generations
• 45:47
  Speaker 8: of plowing.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 45:52
  Speaker 8: Well, I don't know. It's a conversation killer. He is
• 45:56
  Speaker 8: Joe Thomas. And he starts monologuing. Anyway, sir, you have
• 46:01
  Speaker 8: a great weekend. Anything else?
• 46:04
  Speaker 15: Keep doing it.
• 46:05
  Speaker 8: All right, I will. and what does baron von ruthless.
• 46:12
  Speaker 27: Do he starts monologuing he starts monologuing he starts like
• 46:16
  Speaker 27: this prepared speech.
• 46:17
  Speaker 21: About how feeble i am compared to him how inevitable my.
• 46:20
  Speaker 8: Defeat is that's right four three four eight eight two
• 46:24
  Speaker 8: four two one seven let me go to line three
• 46:26
  Speaker 8: here uh good morning you're on with joe first thing
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: this morning who's this hey good morning it's joel hey
• 46:33
  Speaker 8: joel you're up early this morning what's going.
• 46:34
  Speaker 27: On well a lot of this a lot of this
• 46:39
  Speaker 27: uh I don't know, make-believe or what we think we
• 46:43
  Speaker 27: see or perceive reminds me of the John Carpenter movie.
• 46:48
  Speaker 27: It was called They Live. It had Roddy, Roddy, Rowdy
• 46:52
  Speaker 27: Piper in it. And he found a box of sunglasses
• 46:56
  Speaker 27: and he put them on and it revealed the subliminal messages.
• 47:02
  Speaker 27: And they were, people were saying, obey, consume, conform, no
• 47:05
  Speaker 27: independent thought, hidden elites, the quiet manipulation. So it's kind
• 47:13
  Speaker 27: of like what you revealed, the 40, the 50-year-old, 50
• 47:16
  Speaker 27: plan of Selinsky. But a lot of them aren't even
• 47:21
  Speaker 27: just that. It's the hippies, now the 80 and almost 90-year-olds,
• 47:25
  Speaker 27: late 70s, that are teaching their grandchildren the.
• 47:30
  Speaker 8: Manipulation of how bad everything is. And yet we have Hanoi.
• 47:39
  Speaker 27: Um, you know, Fonda, uh, Hanoi Jane, Hanoi Jane.
• 47:45
  Speaker 8: Still, well, but here's the thing. And what they realized
• 47:51
  Speaker 8: is if they wrap it in something that sounds commonsensical,
• 47:57
  Speaker 8: then you, they, they can fool you into adopting it yourself.
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: So what did they say? Okay. Americans are capitalists. So
• 48:06
  Speaker 8: capitalists need, um, people to go into their business. So
• 48:11
  Speaker 8: they need people to know about their business. So we'll
• 48:13
  Speaker 8: invent things like social media that will be an easy
• 48:18
  Speaker 8: way for people to promote their business. But what they
• 48:20
  Speaker 8: were doing was creating silos and, and, and clicks and,
• 48:25
  Speaker 8: and empowering our inner high school, uh, groups again. And,
• 48:30
  Speaker 8: and all of a sudden it's us versus them. And
• 48:33
  Speaker 8: there's 8 billion different us versus them groups that, Joel, and,
• 48:37
  Speaker 8: and this is how they win because at some point,
• 48:40
  Speaker 8: you know, somebody will come along and say, you knuckleheads
• 48:43
  Speaker 8: can't have this anymore. we're going to put this Bill
• 48:47
  Speaker 8: of Rights into a museum somewhere, and we're going to
• 48:50
  Speaker 8: write something a little bit more straightforward. They'll use phrases
• 48:53
  Speaker 8: like common sense, and they'll use the word rights all
• 48:59
  Speaker 8: over the place. You'll have a right to a place
• 49:01
  Speaker 8: to live, and you'll have a right, and we'll think, well,
• 49:03
  Speaker 8: Americans are for rights, right? Correct? And they'll use our
• 49:07
  Speaker 8: language against us.
• 49:10
  Speaker 27: But Joe, the thing is, once you back a Democrat
• 49:15
  Speaker 27: or a communist or socialist into the corner, then their
• 49:21
  Speaker 27: retreat isn't a retreat. It's a fight like a dying rat.
• 49:26
  Speaker 27: I mean, look at Nick Shirley, right? Governor Newsom just signed.
• 49:32
  Speaker 8: The Nick Shirley law.
• 49:36
  Speaker 27: Yeah, I mean, so they're all backed into the corner.
• 49:39
  Speaker 8: Because they're personalizing it.
• 49:43
  Speaker 27: And there's a supportive population that doesn't care, and they
• 49:48
  Speaker 27: know it's wrong, but they don't want that rat feed
• 49:52
  Speaker 27: to be taken away from them because, you know, by–
• 49:56
  Speaker 27: you know, by law, they can put those stupid laws in,
• 50:05
  Speaker 27: but yet they're breaking the law.
• 50:06
  Speaker 8: You know, they're doing fraudulent things. And the Nick Shirley
• 50:09
  Speaker 8: law is just one of the good, how many California
• 50:12
  Speaker 8: cities have flock cameras in them? So the government's allowed
• 50:15
  Speaker 8: to surveil and video you, but we're not allowed to
• 50:18
  Speaker 8: surveil and video the government. And these are the hypocrisies
• 50:21
  Speaker 8: that have to come out. And this is what I
• 50:23
  Speaker 8: said half hour ago, Joel, I don't disagree with this
• 50:27
  Speaker 8: Cato poll that says 56% of Americans think there's a
• 50:31
  Speaker 8: constitutional crisis. Unfortunately, I think the most of them believe
• 50:35
  Speaker 8: that it's named as Donald Trump. Not all these people
• 50:40
  Speaker 8: who just flounce through society under the most abused phrase
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: in jurisprudence, which is sovereign immunity and trample our rights
• 50:51
  Speaker 8: and under the rights of the government. And that's the
• 50:54
  Speaker 8: thing that we have to fix. That's the constitutional crisis,
• 50:58
  Speaker 8: is that when people break the laws that govern how
• 51:02
  Speaker 8: the government is bound to not harm its citizens, They
• 51:07
  Speaker 8: shrug and say, oh, you're just politicizing this. This is
• 51:11
  Speaker 8: just for– I'm watching it here in our flagship city.
• 51:14
  Speaker 8: We've got a group of– a bipartisan group of people
• 51:17
  Speaker 8: trying to recall a school board member, a school board
• 51:21
  Speaker 8: member because she knew– that some teacher was sexually abusing
• 51:25
  Speaker 8: kids and didn't say anything about it for a year.
• 51:28
  Speaker 8: And then when it came up, she left the room
• 51:31
  Speaker 8: and hid from the information. But everyone's saying, oh, this
• 51:35
  Speaker 8: is just about politics because some of the people involved
• 51:38
  Speaker 8: are Republicans. Oh, and she's a Democrat. So, oh, you're
• 51:42
  Speaker 8: just doing this because politics.
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: Meanwhile.
• 51:45
  Speaker 8: at least three children were sexually abused and we're busy
• 51:49
  Speaker 8: talking about whose political party it is. We got bigger
• 51:53
  Speaker 8: problems than just, you know, who wins the next election, Joel.
• 51:58
  Speaker 8: I agree with you.
• 51:58
  Speaker 27: And, and, and that scale, that, that lawyer scale, that
• 52:03
  Speaker 27: balance of justice, she's supposed to be blind.
• 52:08
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 52:08
  Speaker 27: Is that really a symbolic, uh, balance, or is it
• 52:12
  Speaker 27: an equilibrium of psychosis?
• 52:16
  Speaker 8: That's a good question, one that I don't really have
• 52:18
  Speaker 8: time for here, but I appreciate it, Joel. You have
• 52:21
  Speaker 8: a great Friday. You too. Thank you. 434-882-4217. That's how
• 52:29
  Speaker 8: you get to us.
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: He starts monologuing.
• 52:31
  Speaker 5: He starts like this prepared speech about how feeble I
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: am compared to him, how inevitable my defeat is.
• 52:38
  Speaker 8: Just because I have an opinion, you're just sticking the
• 52:41
  Speaker 8: needles in. What am I, a pincushion or a voodoo doll?
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: 434-882-4217.
• 52:45
  Speaker 8: My name is Bobby.
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
• 52:55
  Speaker 17: My victory was going from a wheelchair to becoming a
• 52:58
  Speaker 17: weightlifting champion.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: I'm Sam. I'm a veteran.

• 53:11
  Speaker 4: My victory was going from homeless to home.
• 53:14
  Speaker 9: At DAV, we're on a mission to help veterans get
• 53:17
  Speaker 9: the benefits they've earned.
• 53:19

• 53:23
  Speaker 9: DAV offers veterans of all generations a lifetime of support
• 53:27
  Speaker 9: for victories great and small.
• 53:29
  Speaker 20: My victory was proving that disability is not a limitation.

  Speaker 16: My victory was getting my service dog a new best friend.
• 53:36
  Speaker 9: We help more than a million veterans every year as
• 53:38
  Speaker 9: they face and conquer their challenges.
• 53:40
