- Todd: That was a historic ass kicking this week, Carrie. What'd you think as you're watching it come in? Yo, it's Carrie: It was a bloodbath. was a blue bloodbath. Todd: Woo! You're glad you had those pumps installed in the crawl space to keep the blood from rising. Yo, it's Carrie: It was brutal. Todd: Welcome to the wildly opinionated news hour. We're back. Listen, we we got a short show today. No one is gonna believe that we can do a wildly opinionated news hour in 30 minutes, but we are going to prove it can be done. Right, Carrie? Yo, it's Carrie: Yep, absolutely. Todd: Carrie is playing grandma this weekend, and she Yo, it's Carrie: Maybe. Todd: has to keep a close eye on her grandson. Right now the uncles are doing it, but Yo, it's Carrie: I have him plunked in front of the television. Todd: we don't know how long that'll last. Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. We're doing it just for you because of the election. Todd: We just wanted to contribute to everyone's morning. What'd you think, Carrie, something happened this week? Something went bad? Yeah. No morning like with a U. Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, is that morning? Is that morning like AM or morning like morning? Yeah. Todd: Like that's i we've got morning in America, but a different kind of morning. Yo, it's Carrie: Holy crap. wore my, you wore your insurrection shirt and I have my land that, land, Todd: We're back. Insurrection's back, guys. We're back in Yo, it's Carrie: land that I love. They do go together. Todd: We're back in the resistance is the answer. If we were ever out. Wow. Yo, it's Carrie: That's right. Dang. There we are. Todd: That was a historic ass kicking this week, Carrie. What'd you think as you're watching it come in? Yo, it's Carrie: It was a bloodbath. was a blue bloodbath. Todd: Woo! You're glad you had those pumps installed in the crawl space to keep the blood from rising. Yo, it's Carrie: It was brutal. What was that? How, Todd: And well Yo, it's Carrie: how real do you think it is? Todd: What do you mean? Do I think that do I think the numbers were rigged? any more than normal? Yo, it's Carrie: Well, yeah, mean, there are two things. There are two things I saw that are concerning one. have been nine indictments in Texas for ballot harvesting. Todd: Okay. Well I believe that. Yo, it's Carrie: like nine people. And I saw an analyst saying that this doesn't make sense because the biggest swings in change happened in the more extreme states. So for instance, the reddest states had the biggest swing of change, which is not how it normally goes. Todd: No. Yo, it's Carrie: Normally the change occurs in states where it is closer. So I'm like, well. Todd: Well, let's go back to this Yo, it's Carrie: historically. Todd: video. We shared this video not that long ago. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: And I and it's it it's gonna be hard for people to believe that a party like this could lose. Like this is the best we've got in the United States. The allegedly heterosexual Benny John this was the Republican, this is this is our campaign. We've got four dollar and seventy five cent gas, and this is the Republicans. This is one of the main Republican influencers. Yo, it's Carrie: He's just a personality though, he's not a politician. Todd: How is it that we could have lost? How could we have lost so badly? Yo, it's Carrie: You know what, if you showed a video of Brandon Gill, I think we would all be saying, how can we lose that big? Yeah, he did. Because he's awesome. Todd: Well see, but Brandon Gill won. So that's right. And I think it's clear that Yo, it's Carrie: Was it close? Todd: Mm, I mean it was closer than it should have been. You know what I mean? But I think here's the deal. Here's the deal. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Okay. Florida governor close. Yeah. Todd: You cannot tell your voters, tell the country that you're gonna do one thing and then Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Todd: govern like you don't give a damn. Yo, it's Carrie: True. Todd: And I have to tell you that that's exactly what Trump has done. I'm Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: I I've I I people know I love Trump. And there's a there's a part of Trump that I do love. I think we're gonna spend the Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: next I don't know, twenty years trying to sort out exactly what the hell the Trump legacy was and what he meant, because he was such a such an Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: an oversized political figure in America Yo, it's Carrie: Right? Todd: and in some ways one of the least effective. Yo, it's Carrie: in sum, the court of public opinion. Todd: In some public opinion. Well, you can't he closed the border. He did do that, right? Yo, it's Carrie: But, yep, yep. Todd: Apart from that what did you feel like Trump was really going to bet for for the American people? I mean, 'cause I don't think the American people felt like it was much of anything. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. I think from a safety perspective, think Iran made a little bit of sense, but he had to get in and out. It Todd: Mm-hmm. Yo, it's Carrie: had to do one of his magic, you know, no one's ever pulled this off before negotiations, you know, peace agreements. That's what he needed to do. But this, how long have we been involved in Iran now? Like this whole year? Todd: And and accomplishing really nothing except increasing costs for American for the American people. And the Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: other thing Trump did is he's he went about like he didn't give a damn about the fact that gas was what it was. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. And it's like, in that case, I if you're doing a flow chart, in that case, if you're stuck and Iran isn't cooperating and this is what you have to deal with, then where you are then is you either have to appear to everyone that you don't give a damn, which is really what everyone sees, or Todd: Mm-hmm. Yo, it's Carrie: you've got to find a way to convince, educate, and sell it. And he just wasn't. The fact that he's talking about how great the economy is, he's speaking about the market. Well, how many people don't even, aren't invested in the market? The market doesn't mean anything to them. What matters to them is how much it costs to get groceries and gas. It's tough. Todd: It's possible that in five or ten years we're gonna look back and look at the Trump presidency as the the boomers final looting of the empire on their way out. Who owns more stock Yo, it's Carrie: Mmm. Todd: than anyone else? Boomers. Who's house who owns the more house Yo, it's Carrie: Well, Todd: equity than anyone else? Yo, it's Carrie: that's only a matter of timing. If this happened, know, tend to... Todd: You th it it only happened to happen under the final boomer president. I'm just saying. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm just saying 20 years from now when we're in that age bracket, we're always going to be the coolest Gen X, but that is the stuff that we'll be more concerned with. I think it's just a matter of timing. I don't feel like the boomers manipulated anything. Todd: I think that Trump has had he he he simply maybe the maybe the answer is that the swamp is not possible to be drained. That that might be. And if that's the case, and Trump got Yo, it's Carrie: possible. Todd: in and looked at it and decided I'm gonna take active part in looting the empire on my way out, which is I think I don't know if Trump did. But I'll tell you this: Yo, it's Carrie: Right? Todd: it sounds like everyone around Trump did. Now Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Well, they've been doing, they've been doing that. You mean in Washington or? yeah. They've been doing it forever. Yes. Todd: They've been doing that forever, right. And that's a Uni Party thing. But see Trump didn't come in saying, I'm gonna be one of the guys, I'm gonna be one of the gang of the Uni Party. That's not how he Yo, it's Carrie: No. Todd: sold himself. Yo, it's Carrie: Right, and everyone around him certainly hasn't acted like he's leading a uniparty. They've opposed him every Todd: And what it appears Yo, it's Carrie: step of the way, still. And the media. Everyone. Todd: It appears that maybe Trump, the greatest showman in American history, that Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: a lot of what we've had for Trump terms has been a show. I mean, I'd hate to think I it it bothers me to even Yo, it's Carrie: I don't know. I think it just... Todd: say that. But when I look at it through the hard lens of political reality, Yo, it's Carrie: in the lens of political reality. Todd: these losses, people people may think that the that they're gonna be able to flip this back in two years or in four years. This is these these were generational losses. We may not make up this ground for ten years, maybe twelve. So you've got you've got senators that have six year terms. This is this is Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yep. Todd: generational. What what the what what the the the damage Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: that that probably they're going to try to do, maybe I you know I I don't know. Maybe maybe the maybe the Democrats, maybe the Muslim communists will have a change of heart. Maybe. Yo, it's Carrie: Dude, I don't mean to be scared of just that, but I'm scared of just that. Todd: It's it's it's everywhere. It's just Yo, it's Carrie: Ugh. Todd: it's everywhere and I think I think it's it lies at Trump's feet and he he wildly blew it. I don't know He wild you what he wildly blew it in his first term on COVID. Wildly. I mean the the the the Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: damage that that that COVID did Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: the amount of debt that we've been saddled with in the last since COVID what Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: half our debt has come since COVID? twenty trillion dollars or something. Yo, it's Carrie: Ugh. Todd: there's Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: just not we're not a serious country, we don't have serious politicians, and and I will say this too. I say Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: it could take it could be take generations to go back. I think that the that the debt and the and the fiscal malfeasance Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: has created an an atmosphere where The Fed can't really lower interest rates. They're just boxed in by certain market factors that come with the debt and that come with the interest. And it's so massive, it's impacting things we wouldn't ever even imagine in the economy. And so what you could have, and I think this is late-stage empire stuff, is you have the people who are pissed off because they they make their Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: their mandate clear we want things changed, except those very same, that very same electorate. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: Not one of them wants anything that'll impact their life cut. Not a single person. So Yo, it's Carrie: right, right. Todd: we have zero appetite for any kind of budget cutting or structural, you know, restructuring of things. And yet we are pissed off at the results of what we're dealing with. And so you get an electorate Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that starts yo-yoing back and forth because it's impossible. It can't be done what they want to be done. You can't just Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: continue to increase benefits and Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: lower tax I mean, you just can't like and I'm not Yo, it's Carrie: Well, Todd: advocating higher taxes here. It's all spending for the most part. We have Yo, it's Carrie: I was going to say, you can lower taxes and you can increase... Todd: You can lower taxes and increase revenue. Yo, it's Carrie: Sure, but you have to eliminate the fraud, which they're still finding so much fraud. I just don't understand why Todd: Right. Yo, it's Carrie: the same people are getting elected in Minnesota when there's been so much fraud discovered. It's not even in Todd: Well, Yo, it's Carrie: question. Todd: Here's the thing. If if you had to to dial in what you think people wanted from Trump, what they bought into with Trump, just Yo, it's Carrie: huh. Yep. Todd: in just a couple areas, just just a couple things, what Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: would it be? I mean one of have to be the border, right? Yo, it's Carrie: Border, yeah, border, number one, close the border. Number two, Todd: Right. Yo, it's Carrie: the economy because it was, because gas and all that was so screwed under Biden, Todd: Yep. Inflation. Yo, it's Carrie: yeah, inflation. So that aspect of the economy, not the market, but like everyday, Todd: Right. Yo, it's Carrie: everyday American's economy. And the third thing. there were people, there were MAGA people who were still thinking drain the swamp. I feel like that was kind of like the first term's mission. I don't feel like that was really the mission of the second term. Todd: What about accountability? Would you say that's a fair? Or you don't think they even want it 'cause we haven't gotten any. Yo, it's Carrie: again, no, I understand that. Yes, that's again, one of those things, but what was the top third one? Todd: the the fraud thing comes in with accountability. That's that's Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: a if if we want people held accountable, we crime Yo, it's Carrie: and yeah. And election. Yeah. I was going to say an election integrity. I like, I think I feel like, and one more thing. Okay. Todd: Election integrity is a big one. But again, I think that comes down to accountability. Yo, it's Carrie: Accountability. That's fair. And I think another thing was the war thing and the fact that he has got no new wars and here we are. And Todd: No new wars, right. A hundred percent, you're right. Yo, it's Carrie: that was the third one I was thinking of. So. Todd: No, you're right on that. But I think that I think the war thing was huge. Accountability was huge. He he did well on the border, closed the border. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Todd: Questi questionable maybe on deportations. I I don't know if we yet know exactly where the deportation thing is gonna fall. You know what I mean? It it's it's Yo, it's Carrie: Right. mean, I think it's been, obviously people are pissed off enough at ICE that I feel like that is, that there's been some progress made to get the violent criminals out, Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: which I think is the critical, the critical aspect of the deportations. Todd: But there has been zero accountability. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: No one in the entire government has been held accountable for anything. No Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-mm. Todd: one in the entire Obama administration. No one associated with crossfire hurricane. No one associated with any of the Biden stuff. Well or any of the Republicans. And in fact, it seems to me I've got clips upon clips. Guys, we're doing a short show today and I probably can't do it all, and I won't probably even Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: try. Maybe couple weeks from now, trust me, this isn't going away. You get to live here for a while. Welcome to America. So Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: we'll have plenty of time, but the fact of the matter is, I mean, what happens Yo, it's Carrie: Unbelievable. Todd: in these kinds of scenarios when you have these kinds of generational losses is Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: everybody behind the scenes starts coming out. And so you start Casey Means. I don't know if you remember. Casey and Callie Means were a brother and sister. Went Yo, it's Carrie: I remember Casey means... Yeah. Todd: on Joe Rogan. They were a big part of the Maha movement. Tight with Bobby Kennedy, right? Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. Yes, with like the ingredients in food and vaccination, like the right. Yeah. Todd: Yes, a hundred percent. And he was actually brought into the Trump administration into DHS with Bobby Kennedy. Still loves Bobby Kennedy. So I I want to Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: put that out there in case I don't there there's like he was just he just went on Joe Rogan yesterday. Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: And I want people to hear this this is a sh super short clip. This in eighteen seconds he tells you everything that's wrong with with America's government, I should say. Not America, but America's government. But then there's another clip. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, let's hear it. He's such a smart guy. Former doctor, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah. Todd: Yes, I I believe so. He left the White House. Yo, it's Carrie: He's saying that about the people in the Trump administration? shit. Todd: Yes. Now, this is what I'm saying. We don't really have time today for this. I've got a I've got a four Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. It's disappointing. Todd: minute clip where he details Susie Wil. I mean, he goes through six different high level people. He says their kids are working here. This in fact I want to do just one. I'm gonna play one Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: clip, and this is only about two minutes of Casey Means, but this is just describing all all this is talking about is Vapes. Fruit flavored so he worked in the DHS with Bobby Kennedy, right? And so he gives this example of of of what he dealt with. Yo, it's Carrie: And DHS, but DHS, isn't that? Thank you. Health and Human Services. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Got it. Todd: Am I saying DHS HHS? I'm sorry. Health and Human Services. Not Department of Homeland Security. Carrie's right. Carrie's, that's why she's here. To correct me on the rare occasion when I'm wrong. I just but listen, this is about a two Yo, it's Carrie: I just want to make sure I understand. make sure. It's very rare, folks. This is, this is. Todd: and a half-minute clip. And all this, he isn't going through every single person here. There are different places where he does that. And Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: and I haven't even watched the whole Rogan episode yet. I've watched a lot of clips. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: I said to Nikki last night, you want to watch the Rogan episode? And she was like, No. So anyway, I watch a lot of talk. Well, I went out last you know, you know what I did last night? I Yo, it's Carrie: She pissed. She pissed about the election. Todd: went out, my daughter turned my my middle daughter Lauren Allen, Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Todd: who was a singer songwriter. You need to look her up if you haven't on Spotify. She's got a new CD Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: coming out. She's fabulous. She's having she two days ago I turned twenty one. Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Todd: and then tonight is her big like she's having a big gig at this place in Grand Haven and Yo, it's Carrie: Fun. Todd: she's inviting everybody and it's just gonna be a a a wild kind of twenty first. Now she's gotta keep her stuff together but we I took her out last night. Yo, it's Carrie: gonna say is she is she functioning today after straight Jameson shots what the heck Todd: Well that's the thing. We we we hit she wanted an espresso martini, so we hit that downtown at like a nicer place, the Knickerbocker, owned by New Holland. Then we went Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Fun. Happy birthday, Laura. Todd: we went down the road. Where did we go next? we went to the Broadway Bar in Grand Rapids, which is this kind of dive bar, but they have they do massive amounts of Christmas decorations inside, and then most of them they have year-round, but especially around Christmas. Like we're yes Yo, it's Carrie: Is that what was behind in the background of that photo? It looks so fun. I was like, where is that? Todd: But the bartenders were so great everywhere. They're comping her drinks. They're giving her shots. They're doing birthday shots. And Yo, it's Carrie: Aaaaa Todd: I'm like, and then I wake up to a text from her this morning. It wasn't too bad. We we hit a few places, but by midnight Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I'm like, you got a big day tomorrow. I'm kinda tired. We should probably shut it down, And it's just her dad, right? But the Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Right, right. That's cool. Todd: problem is she has roommates that want to go out clubbing. So Yo, it's Carrie: no. Todd: I get this text this morning. I wake up to, you know what? I take back what I said about Jaeger. It's a lot worse on the way up. 'cause Yo, it's Carrie: no! Todd: I told him, I'm not doing shots to have Jaeger. I hate Jaeger. I had a bad experience with Jaeger that ended with me in a parking lot, and it was bad. Yo, it's Carrie: Mind, Jaeger, you, but birth on a birthday when you're mixing all those things, all of it's. Todd: It was me Russell Brand in a parking lot. It was bad. Kidding, kidding, kidding, folks. You've been following Yo, it's Carrie: Woooo Todd: the Russell Brand stuff? That dude's going to prison. Sad, Yo, it's Carrie: That's... He is? Todd: sad, sad. Yeah, he just got convicted of rape in the UK. Yeah. Yeah, it Yo, it's Carrie: What? From a long time ago? Todd: was a wise back, probably fifteen years, twenty years ago, I don't know. But I mean just it it's it it's rough. Yo, it's Carrie: Wow, that's so awful. Sorry to hear that. Sorry for Todd: But anyway, she texted me that and I told her Yo, it's Carrie: everyone. Todd: I said, geez, shots will do that to you. And she said, Well, it wouldn't have if I'd have stayed home, but I went to the club after you left, which I told her you shouldn't go back out. But you know, Yo, it's Carrie: Nope. Todd: kids gotta learn their they gotta learn how to handle it, right? Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, they do. Learning it on your 21st birthday is tough. Todd: Ha ha ha. Yo, it's Carrie: So many of us do. Wow. Well, happy birthday, Lauren. Todd: I know. So anyway, that'll be fun. Yo, it's Carrie: It's L-A-U-R-Y-N. Go look her up, Lauren Allen. So good. So good. Okay. Todd: Yeah, look her up. She got fabulous songs. So that was fun. But anyway, this is Casey Means. He's all he's gonna do is he's gonna talk about vapes. This is two and a half minutes, and all this Yo, it's Carrie: vapes. Okay. Todd: is is just a window into the Trump administration. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: This is what we voted for, guys. Mm-hmm. A lot when he says ballard, he's talking about Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: firms, he's talking about lobbying firms. So just so people know what he's discussing. Ha ha ha. Yo, it's Carrie: What the fuck? Todd: Mm-hmm. Yo, it's Carrie: Kids? Todd: Mm-hmm. What? Yo, it's Carrie: What? Todd: That's just one example. That's just one example. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm gobsmacked, flabbergasted. Todd: Yeah. I I I think what I think Yo, it's Carrie: That makes me pretty pissed. Todd: I think what you'll find as things as as things roll out is that however bad we thought things were, they're ten times worse. So I don't know if you find that encouraging, but Yo, it's Carrie: I do not find that encouraging. know, I like to, I get it when people say it's all like you said, a uniparty, everyone's just in there. Just, you know, there are probably a few, a few people who are, trying to do, they're trying to do the right thing. They're trying to look out for their constituents. I do think there are good people out there. I have to believe that as a woman of faith, I have to believe that there are some good people working in our government, but one would hope. Todd: One would hope. To be fair, Callie Mean says he loves Bobby Kennedy, he's not lost an ounce of respect for Bobby Kennedy's high integrity, every you know what I mean? It's just he's got Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, think, I think, yeah, I think he is. Todd: he's he's in charge of a of a of a bureaucracy with ninety thousand people working under him, all of which are working against him. And then he's got the people under the president that are controlling everything, because Trump doesn't really control that much. I mean he could, but he's just Yo, it's Carrie: Right. He's just one person. Todd: one guy and he can't if people i if he's got What what they what they generally try to do is insulate a president and if he's got Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: the people close to him and his advisors that are insulating him, he doesn't I mean wh I I think that's half of why you saw Trump seem as dismissive as he was about everything, is because everybody's telling him everything's fine. And he thinks everything's Yo, it's Carrie: Hmm. Todd: fine. Yo, it's Carrie: I don't know. feel like Trump's a smarter guy, but again, this whole uniparty concept is like, even if the majority is like that, I feel like I exist under this and. delusion that they're actually trying to make, make us more prosperous and safer and, know, all those things healthier. And I hear, I hear that and I just think. Todd: You need to be disabused of that notion. 'Cause I don't think it's true. That's all. I wish it was and and maybe that's what we need to work through to and towards. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, apparently. I don't think it's true. that's, and, Todd, what do we do? What do we do? Todd: I we're gonna have to sort through we're gonna have to sort through this. I I Yo, it's Carrie: And I'm sorry, I'm already, I'm already trying to sell my kids on the importance of voting and I hear that shit and I'm like, well, what does it matter? Todd: It's not just it's not look I wanna show you this. This is Yo, it's Carrie: Isn't that awful? Okay. Todd: this is a different kind of thing. Okay. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: Okay. I have not been I've tried I've not been terribly hard on Erica Kirk. This just came out this week on live Yo, it's Carrie: You haven't? Todd: I do you think I have? I haven't talked about her very that much. In general, Yo, it's Carrie: No, not lately, not lately. Todd: I mean I just you know there's things that seem off about her to me, but what do I know? Yo, it's Carrie: Sure, sure. Okay, yeah. Todd: I I I understand people grieve, she's a griev, whatever. Her husband was shot in front of the entire world, so I I I try to give Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: a certain amount of of grace. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: Okay, okay. Let's just watch this. Watch this. Now now this this can hitch a couple different ways. When I first saw it, I thought I I didn't even I Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, I haven't seen this, so. Todd: didn't even put this, I didn't bookmark this to share because I thought, it's just a it's a widow. She's still upset, whatever. Okay. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: okay, alright. I think we got enough. Well you got the idea. But she wants Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, I got the idea. Todd: to get on TV and cry, that's fine. Okay. I So then I start see then I thought then I start seeing things Yo, it's Carrie: I understand. Yeah. Why are you showing this? Tell me why you're showing this. Okay. Todd: and I think, surely, surely what I'm seeing can't be true. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: And I said to Grok, surely They're like she snuck in a hot sauce ad into her crying. Surely Charlie Kirk doesn't have a hot sauce company. And then I find out he does. Yo, it's Carrie: well, I assumed, I assumed he did based on what she said. Todd: See, I didn't. I thought it was something he liked. Like his cold you know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: his hot sauce. sorry. Because he, because they're celebrities, I assumed that she meant he had, did, but, Todd: You assumed okay. Yo, it's Carrie: but I, but I wasn't familiar with the brand before that. Todd: Me either. I just it's it's all so fake. Yo, it's Carrie: Well doesn't have a face. Todd: Everything is so fake and it makes me angry. It makes Yo, it's Carrie: Mmm. Todd: me angry that I want to give a widow who had her husband shot in front of the whole world grace and she's fake and it pisses me off. I mean you get on Yo, it's Carrie: Why do you think that's fake? Why do you think what you just saw is fake? Todd: TV and okay, alright. It would be it would be analogous to Me having Todd okay, by the world, by the way, this is my show, and I'm not Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: crying. Toddsworld.net is where you go. You can find my books. You Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: should buy some. The stories are fabulous. The merch is on there. Yo, it's Carrie: Do it. Todd: It would be analogous to my wife getting shot, me going on TV to cry about it and saying, by the way, you know, sometimes I go to Toddsworld.net and I look at all you and I just I'm just all so upset. And I if just if we could just move some more hot sauce cases. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: Am I wrong in that? Am I wrong? I I just think it's it's all to me it's all the same plastic banana good time rock and roll bullshit in different phases. And I think Trump's in on it, I think Kirk was in on it, I think they're all in on it, and it pisses me off. Okay. Sorry guys. Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Okay. That's all right. Todd: We're at the twenty nine forty mark. I had to have my outburst. Yo, it's Carrie: This is this, that's okay. You know what? We need an outburst. I think this outburst is actually because of Tuesday, not because of, not because of Erica Kirk. Yeah. Todd: Well no it is. That's what I'm saying. I'm saying th but they're all parts of the same thing. And when I first see that video, I think I gave her the benefit of the doubt. I just I kinda Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: walk I walked by it and I thought, well, she's still upset, whatever, okay. And then I start seeing things online and I and I grocked it and I I thought this isn't this can't surely, surely, this can't be true. Yo, it's Carrie: Shirley. And don't call me Shirley. Todd: I just I just Yo, it's Carrie: so what I saw, what I just saw is one, one of the, me, one of the most authentic grieving displays I've seen her do. Todd: Really? Because she's upset about the hot sauce sales going down? Yo, it's Carrie: Well, well, she's a year out. She's a year. I'm just saying I, I hate I'm, I'm, I'm a year ahead of her. Todd: Okay, you're hey, you're a widow. Yo, it's Carrie: get it. I'm a year ahead of her. Okay. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: I get it. A year in it's, it's the everyday. Okay. Initially it's well, especially her, my gosh, the shock and the horror and whatever she's in the public Todd: Uh-huh. Yo, it's Carrie: eye. That's terrible. But a year in it is those everyday ordinary things and being in the grocery store and think remembering him coming home from work. All those, I'm like, shoot. I totally get it. I get it. You don't like that she mentioned the hot sauce. Yeah. Todd: That I get. And that and that that I was willing to give, that I was I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt to. I really was. I I just and then and then you realize it's all about the grift. It's all about the grift. Every place you look, it's all about the grift. And Yo, it's Carrie: it, Okay. Todd: I start to think, what do we do? Why why is voting so important? Well, so that Charlie Kirk can sell more hot sauce. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, sales are down. We got to promote this. I'm almost done. Todd: I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm almost done. It's tough, Todd. It's tough thing. Yeah, we don't know. You're tired of the fake. Fake. Todd: I don't know. I I'm I'm I'm I don't know what we're gonna do is the answer. But I wanted to g I've listened we had to come on here today. We had to we had to to I I guess listen, here's one more clip. This is Steve Dace. Everybody knows how much I like him. This is kinda hit a quick minute and a half of his post election coverage. I think we'll leave it at this for today. I don't know. He doesn't mention any hot sauce, but I d Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: what what do I know? He's I'm sure I'm sure he he's using it. Yo, it's Carrie: Two more minutes. Mm. Mm. Unbelievable. Hmm. That's interesting. Todd: Mm-hmm. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, so Todd: What do you think? Yo, it's Carrie: that's really interesting if that's accurate in like Kansas and Iowa and you know, Todd: It is. It's Yo, it's Carrie: if the transcripts basically look interchangeable, then Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: that's scary. I mean, but that's not the case in Todd: I actually think it's a Yo, it's Carrie: Michigan and that's not the case in Texas. And I mean, it's not the case in, where else was it? Todd: Michigan and Texas were the most egregious, to be sure. although the Muslim commie Yo, it's Carrie: Yes! What on earth? I mean, can we... I know we didn't... Todd: has has come out I I I don't know how fair this is to he's come out appearing a little more moderate of of late or just since the election. Yo, it's Carrie: Really? Really? Todd: A fuzz. But well he did that on election night, yeah. yeah, yeah. He said it's a Yo, it's Carrie: I saw him come out and do the full accent of his name. And I was like, what? Todd: we're we're the Arab capital of the world now, Michigan is. Great Lakes, great times. Yo, it's Carrie: The Arab capital of the world. I love that. Todd: Not the world. Just look at me. People are like, are you Arab? Where's your turban? Yo, it's Carrie: But Talar... I know that's right. Someone thought that you were maybe, maybe of Arab descent. What is Talarico though? I know, but Talarico? For real? Todd: We don't have time today. Remind me. Remind me next. Next news. I've got, we talk so much about Vivek. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I've got Ron DeSantis going the hell off on Vivek. I've got other people going off on Vivek. This is what I mean. When when you have a generational loss like Yo, it's Carrie: Really? he messed it up. Todd: this, they just start throwing people off. The bandwagon get empties out. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, it's too bad. It's really too bad. Okay. Todd: So listen, I don't know. I think that we're gonna have to grapple with with what we do going forward. One thing we know is Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Todd: we do beers with Jesus. Are we doing beers with Jesus this week or are we not? we are. Okay. Carrie's busy this week. She's emerging Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, I think we can find time. am, but I found out. Todd: from the bloodbath. Yo, it's Carrie: I know I'm comforting myself with the presence of my sweet grandson. Yeah, I found out that she flies in like early afternoon tomorrow. So we can Todd: okay. Yo, it's Carrie: find a time tomorrow to record beers if you like. Yeah. Todd: Cool. No, that'd be great. So guys, join us for beers, the beers of Jesus. We walk through stories of the Bible Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: and and we don't preach to you but we try to see we we try to get a handle on the s not only those stories for that chapter or whatever, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: we're in Genesis right now. So we're in the story of Abraham and Isaac and those kinds of things, the patriarchs. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: But with a view for the wider story. And Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: and I think you'll find it unique and and really Encouraging which I you may not find news for a while. I don't know. So the answer is beers. Yo, it's Carrie: Right? If you're discouraged. Todd: We do it weekly. We do news bi weekly because the answer is the Bible, I think. That's the answer. We follow Jesus just like we did before Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: and the world's going to hell and Yo, it's Carrie: I think so. Todd: it was before. We're the answer to that. So yes. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. can I say one other thing too? Just, I don't know if this is discouraging or encouraging, but my sons and I rotate movie picks and we are, I've picked the JFK movie from the nineties with Kevin Costner and Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: the same with Kevin Costner. There are like 50 major stars in the movie. It's enormous. Todd: It's a big it's a big movie. It's been a while since I watched that. Yo, it's Carrie: Same. It's been so long and I wanted to say it's three hours long. So weird. Todd: Is it all about JFK or is it just mostly the Cuban Missile Crisis? I'm trying to remember. Yo, it's Carrie: No, it's about, it's about the attorney who becomes obsessed with proving a conspiracy about, to, assassinate him. So, Todd: that's right, that's right. Yep. It's been a long time since I saw that. Yo, it's Carrie: so we've been watching it and I gotta say, if, if you think, if you catch yourself thinking, or you hear your young adult children saying, like we're so screwed up. We're like in the worst Americans in like the worst place it's ever been. It's like, it's been, it's been like this for a really long time. Todd: That's true. Yo, it's Carrie: And I don't know if that's discouraging or encouraging, but I think that you just need to check yourself if you catch yourself thinking, it's so much worse now than it used to be. It's like, no, there have been, there have been extremists all along. There has been discord in Washington all along Todd: Yes. True. Yo, it's Carrie: among the American people all along. think the biggest differences we have, you know, the perceived anonymity of social media and we've got the, a whole media complex that is, you know, pushing. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: pushing more animosity, know, fostering more animosity, more division. Yep. Todd: You know what I think the difference is? Now, I you're right. What what Kerry just said is 100% right. It's always been a problem. I mean Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yep. Todd: people look back at the Ulysses S. Grant administration as one of the most corrupt administrations in the history at the time. And Yo, it's Carrie: Really? my gosh. Todd: and his hi his it his story was only Yo, it's Carrie: and he made it onto our currency. Todd: his story was only rehabbed because right before he died he wrote this these massive memoirs about the war and everything else in his administration and that kind of changed Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: the story going forward. But the difference I think between like if you look in nineteen sixties and you look at now, the difference Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yep. Todd: is that in general Western civilization and especially America had a better handle on truth. We had a better foundation Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. Todd: still, we had not cashed in everything that we believed. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: To where that's that's part of the problem now. First of all, everything's bigger. So the size Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: of everything, the size of the grift, the size of of it, it just Yo, it's Carrie: the magnitude of everything. Todd: continues to grow because the size of the federal government continues to grow. And the size of all this money and the size in where it used to be maybe people are funneling five hundred thousand dollars to their kids, now it's like fifty million. You know Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: what I mean? So it's these size differentials. But then in addition to that, we don't have any kind of base. People aren't going to church. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: You know what I mean? They're just it it's not the same. So and and I think Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. So. Todd: what do we do going forward? I think we pursue the truth. We follow Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: Jesus and we do the best we can to be the best citizens we can and we fight every step of the way. That's I I mean, don't know what else. What do you think, Carrie? And pray. You fight on your knees, maybe. How's that? Yo, it's Carrie: I think I would, I, yeah. totally. I think that I would put a resist sticker on my stuff if I didn't think it would be misconstrued. Yeah. Anyway. Todd: I get it. Well listen, we did our best. Carrie, thanks for making time for quick news. Guys, we'll be back in two weeks with our normal hour Yo, it's Carrie: Thank you for doing it. Okay. Todd: and a half, whatever we do on news. Where we have tons of fun. I have carvo clips. Who knows what's gonna come Yo, it's Carrie: Rambling. It'll be fun. good. Todd: up? That the great thing about the Democrats re being in control is that the the amount of stuff to laugh at and mock them for is just Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: gonna be exponential growth. We are gonna have it's gonna be Yo, it's Carrie: going to be interesting. Todd: a crazy riches for this program. You're gonna enjoy Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: news so much. Even if the rest of life kinda sucks. So we'll see. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, good. Well, that helps. Might stir. Yeah. Todd: But listen, we got beers. Join us for beers. we love beers with Jesus and it's kind of our Yo, it's Carrie: Yes, tomorrow. Be encouraged. Todd: our flagship, and yeah, it's encouraging, even though we don't tailor the stories toward the environment at all, we strictly just go through right now, we're going through Genesis. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: But it's amazing how God works through that, and He He seems to find the right times for the right stories. So go take care of that little grandbaby, Carrie. That's what really Yo, it's Carrie: I agree. It's always, it's always cool. I will go have. Todd: matters. What we gotta fight for is them. I'm gonna be a grandfather all of a sudden.

I know, she better be hydrating. All right guys. Yo, it's Carrie: hydrate, medicate, caffeinate, and if necessary, refrigerate. It's like putting a cold pack, getting cold. Todd: Referty What's that?
