  Speaker 1: Now in the centuries you have slurred the meaning out
• 0:04
  of the words.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: We the people are.
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Tunk
• 0:12
  Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: Thank you for letting us be of service to you.

  On this Constitution Day, two hundred and thirty eight years ago,
• 0:41
  the US Constitution was ratified. And if you don't think
• 0:44
  that was a big deal, think of all the other
• 0:49
  countries and all the other corners of Christendom, and has
• 0:55
  any other and whether it's the Scousan's, it's not. Mark
• 1:00
  his brother. The book The five thousand Year Leap, and
• 1:05
  as much as the five thousand Year Leap talks about
• 1:09
  the prescians of this this foundation, this Judeo Christian foundation
• 1:16
  that allowed mankind to jump. I mean, it's really more
• 1:20
  of a primer on what happens when you let loose
• 1:24
  the dogs of creativity and cry. How about on this
• 1:33
  Constitution Day where we celebrate your e flamiste star trek
• 1:38
  fans and the fact that, like the Yangs of that
• 1:42
  nineteen sixty seven sci fi drama, we have so perversed
• 1:49
  and so forgotten what the Constitution stands for that we think,
• 1:54
  like Tim Kaine says, it sits in a box, and
• 1:56
  he must guard it against anyone but the chiefs seeing it.
• 2:01
  But I'm torturing the metaphor here, So let me lest
• 2:05
  I get called before the Geneva Convention for torturing that metaphor.
• 2:08
  We were talking before the break about the Original Bill
• 2:11
  of Rights as sent to the states for ratification. The
• 2:15
  first Amendment is not the first amendment. The original Bill
• 2:21
  of Rights had twelve amendments. And remember George Mason is
• 2:26
  credited with the Virginia Bill of Rights, much longer than
• 2:29
  the US Bill of Rights. Congress shall make no law
• 2:35
  respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise
• 2:38
  thereof that. That which we know is the first Amendment
• 2:41
  was actually the third. The first capped the size of
• 2:47
  the US House of Representatives for one representative for every
• 2:51
  fifty thousand persons in the United States, was not ratified.
• 2:56
  I'd love to see the ratificat. I'd love to see
• 2:58
  which states blew that up. I know, like South Carolina
• 3:01
  blew up Thomas Jefferson's brilliant rebuke of slavery in the
• 3:07
  original Declaration of Independence, but it would be an interesting
• 3:11
  I'd love to see which states did in that apportionment,
• 3:16
  and a couple of folks reacting to what but the
• 3:20
  importance of the because we have this disneyfied retelling of
• 3:27
  why it's important that the first Amendment be the first
• 3:29
  And in my business we flog it like oh like
• 3:34
  the phrase press means the news media and all the
• 3:38
  other mischaracterizations, and we must call those out as much
• 3:41
  as we call anything else out. On first Thing today
• 3:43
  by Joe Thomas, here are our first things that we're
• 3:48
  talking about. Robert Redford passed away yesterday at his home
• 3:51
  in Utah at the age of eighty nine. All the
• 3:55
  President's men, Butch Cassidy, Sundance Kid, the Sting and even
• 4:01
  directed ordinary people and the founder of the Sundance Film Festival.
• 4:08
  President Trump is in Britain this morning for a second
• 4:11
  state visit, which the press is saying is unprecedented. The
• 4:15
  UK government has rolled out the red carpet. King Charles
• 4:18
  the Third and Lady Camilla will host Trump at Windsor
• 4:22
  Castle for a banquet and then Prime Minister is going
• 4:25
  to sit down with the President to sign a deal
• 4:29
  on nuclear energy generation. Department of Justice said it has
• 4:34
  sued the states of Oregon and Maine over what it
• 4:38
  describes as their failure to provide information regarding voter list
• 4:43
  maintenance procedures and electronic copies of statewide voter registration lists.
• 4:49
  The Department said through a statement that the two states
• 4:52
  violated the National Voter Registration Act, the Help America Vote Act,
• 4:56
  and the Civil Rights Act. I thought states like organ
• 5:00
  we're against violating the Civil Rights Act. Meanwhile, in Utah,
• 5:06
  prosecutors officially filed charges of aggregated murder against Tyler Robinson,
• 5:12
  the suspect and the shooting death of Turning Point USA
• 5:15
  founder Charlie Kirk. They also said on Tuesday they will
• 5:20
  be seeking the death penalty. The Utah County Sheriff's office
• 5:24
  said that the twenty two year old is being kept
• 5:27
  in the jail's Special Housing unit with special watch status
• 5:32
  until cleared by mental health, which may take several days.
• 5:37
  Governor Greg Abbott says the Texas Education Agency has announced
• 5:41
  more than one hundred educators are under investigation over social
• 5:47
  media posts celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk and could
• 5:50
  have their teaching certifications taken away. An FBI director, Cash
• 5:55
  Pattel told the Senate Judiciary Committee they're looking into twenty
• 5:58
  individuals connect to his online chats and those are our
• 6:02
  first things.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co host of Foster and
• 6:09
  Friends and former Virginia.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: Tech football coach. When I brought the.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: Fame lunch Fail to our team, it symbolized teamwork. The
• 6:15
  word win stood for what's important. Now, the Lunch Pail
• 6:19
  Defense Foundation realizes the importance of helping others. Our foundation
• 6:23
  is a nonprofit corporation that helps fund academic scholarship for
• 6:27
  eligible high school students. Since two thousand and nine, the
• 6:29
  Lunch Pail Defense Foundation is raised nearly four hundred thousand
• 6:34
  dollars and awarded over forty individual scholarships. We also support
• 6:38
  an organ transplant program in conjunction with Duke University Medical Center.
• 6:42
  For information regarding corporate sponsorship or becoming an individual supporter,
• 6:47
  log on to our site at lunch Paildefense dot com.
• 6:51
  It's always been important to win, especially when we're helping others.
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: You know, a lot of times you have to choose
• 7:03
  between something high quality or something that saves you money.
• 7:07
  But what if you could get both? Why not, especially
• 7:09
  when it comes to healthcare and that is meta share,
• 7:12
  you get both. Many families save five hundred bucks a
• 7:16
  month with meta share and that's huge. But it's also
• 7:19
  true that people wind up way more satisfied too, and
• 7:21
  we know this from research of members. There's a lot
• 7:24
  they like about meta Share, but especially they love being
• 7:27
  part of something they believe in, and metas Share works too.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: It has for more.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: Than thirty years. There are hundreds of thousands of members
• 7:36

• 7:38
  the huge Ppo network. You can save a ton and
• 7:41

  Speaker 9: You were strolling along in Goodwill when, just past that
• 9:05
  mid century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them
• 9:08
  nestled in their display case. Miniature donut earrings. Oh yes, yes,
• 9:16
  your favorite half breakfast pastry, half all day dessert food
• 9:19
  made into your favorite form of ear candy. Oh my,
• 9:24
  those bejeweled sprinkles have satisfied some unknown hunger within you.
• 9:29

  Speaker 11: Success for this is goodwill, And with every item you buy,
• 9:40
  you fund local job training and more so, go forth,
• 9:45
  bring home those donut earrings and bring home.
• 9:49
  Speaker 9: So much good to your community. Goodwill bring good home.
• 9:57
  Speaker 12: Exercise is hard, so was maintained a healthy diet. Of course,
• 10:02
  neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
• 10:08
  heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 10:12
  Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 10:15
  few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 10:21
  Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
• 10:24
  diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:27
  changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:32
  because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 10:36
  starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor,
• 10:40

• 11:52
  Speaker 18: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our
• 11:55
  first date?
• 11:55
  Speaker 10: Sure?
• 11:56
  Speaker 19: We'll probably stay together.
• 11:58
  Speaker 17: Probably, it's been twenty three minutes since I.

  Speaker 4: Can I get a Mulligan ready to go?
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 12:27
  Speaker 18: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
• 12:29
  Speaker 12: Yeah?
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 12:35
  Speaker 17: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 12:39
  and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 12:42
  or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message

• 13:15
  know the first thing.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: Today.
• 13:21
  Speaker 10: There was a chime when I didn't care. Nothing matters.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: To me, I swear, yeah. Really, it was just about
• 13:40
  getting mentioned in the newspapers.
• 13:43
  Speaker 10: Something happened, said.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: All we were chasing was a little cross media attention
• 13:47
  that came alive. Felt good when I did.
• 13:51
  Speaker 10: I found you, and I found.
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: Fire, paint balls and post office and stopped and you.
• 14:09
  You were there the whole time. Maybe you didn't know it,
• 14:12
  but a version of you, somebody was out there, and
• 14:17
  I realized we were chasing silliness, and silliness as its place.
• 14:22
  You know, I don't regret the day we were at
• 14:28
  the busiest mailing day in America at a post office
• 14:31
  with a paintball gun in our stunt boy, and the
• 14:35
  postal employees liked it. The sheriff liked it, so I
• 14:39
  wasn't going to apologize for it. But we're chasing something
• 14:43
  more important now, and a lot of folks after our
• 14:46
  discussion on the original draft of the Bill of Rights,
• 14:50
  this one, I think from Terry is notable, saying, Joe,
• 14:53
  who cares that's not the one they actually ratified. I
• 14:58
  understand that it's it's a mindset list. On Constitution Day though,
• 15:03
  when George Mason and these folks who were writing the
• 15:06
  Bill of Rights and understand the US Constitution doesn't work
• 15:11
  unless there's a Bill of Rights. That was the deal struck.
• 15:16
  And there's a book called Founding Rivals, and it's about
• 15:21
  James Monroe, who's in Charlottesville. We have three famous presidential residents,
• 15:28
  obviously Jefferson and Madison, and then James Monroe, who moved
• 15:33
  here to live closer to Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.
• 15:37
  But at the end of the day wound up being
• 15:38
  the deal maker that managed to get these two parties
• 15:43
  to meet in the middle and ratify the Constitution. And
• 15:47
  it was basically by allowing George Mason to write up
• 15:52
  a version of Virginia's Bill of Rights. And it's an
• 15:58
  important mindset to look at what they thought the most
• 16:01
  important thing to protect the American people from a centralized
• 16:07
  government was. Because that was the fight. Patrick Henry and
• 16:12
  George Mason and James Monroe and a lot of other folks,
• 16:15
  especially the Virginia delegation, were very hell bent against the
• 16:19
  US Constitution being ratified because they saw it as a
• 16:23
  toolbox to create a centralized authoritarian government, which, as Patrick
• 16:28
  Henry said, hold it, that's just what we fought a
• 16:31
  war against. George Washington was teetering to their side. He
• 16:36
  had stayed out of the politics of it. But George
• 16:40
  Washington was not a great degree agreeing with Patrick Henry
• 16:45
  at the time. We're told so the fanciful retelling is
• 16:52
  that the First Amendment is the first Amendment because it
• 16:54
  was the most important to the founders. It actually wasn't.
• 16:58
  It was diluting the power of each individual member of
• 17:02
  the US House of Representatives. It was controlling the size
• 17:06
  of the US House districts. So that your House representative
• 17:12
  represented a population no larger than a mid size city.
• 17:19
  I think one of my flagship cities is Waynesboro, Virginia,
• 17:24
  and their population is twenty two thousand people. So the
• 17:29
  the original First Amendment to the US Constitution capped the
• 17:36
  size the population of any congressperson's district of fifty thousand people.
• 17:42
  So go up to you know, maybe maybe Roanoke, Virginia.
• 17:48
  What's what's Saint Augustine's population, Daytona. I think they're all
• 17:57
  kind of in the fifty thousand persons if I'm remembering
• 18:01
  my radio lists of major markets, because that's how I think,
• 18:06
  because I'm shallow. That was the most important thing to
• 18:14
  the founders was to protect the American people against the
• 18:19
  development of an authoritarian central government. Was to dilute that power,
• 18:29
  just saying that's why that was proposed to be the
• 18:36
  first amendment to the Constitution. The first Amendment, which we
• 18:43
  now know was actually the third Amendment. The second Amendment
• 18:53
  actually was no law varying the compensation for the services
• 18:58
  of the Senators and Representative shall take effect until the
• 19:01
  election of representatives shall be intervened. Now that was actually passed.
• 19:07
  That's now the twenty seventh Amendment, but it was originally
• 19:11
  going to be the second Amendment. Second most important thing
• 19:16
  to the founders of this nation was to make sure
• 19:19
  that these people going into government service weren't doing it
• 19:22
  for more money, and that they couldn't vote themselves a
• 19:26
  raise upon arriving in Congress. Just like I point to
• 19:34
  the Ten Commandments and say, hey, I think the Israelites
• 19:38
  had a problem with murder and lying about people, Because
• 19:42
  why would God say two of the grievous sins that
• 19:47
  you will be eternally damned to hell if you commit
• 19:50
  our murder, and bearing false witness against thy neighbor, stealing,
• 19:56
  coveting thy neighbor's wife, adultery. You know these things in
• 20:03
  the historical context, but also as it moves forward to today,
• 20:10
  understanding that the people who were against passing the US
• 20:14
  Constitution were also against were against it not because they
• 20:20
  wanted more power. People say Patrick Henry, only opposed the
• 20:23
  Constitution because it made the US governors less powerful. They
• 20:28
  were basically their own little presidentes in each state. I
• 20:35
  think the governor is still pretty powerful. Remember, the governor
• 20:38
  also appointed the US senators. The senator the US Senate
• 20:42
  responded to the governors of the states. So it's an
• 20:53
  interesting point to look at and understand what these guys
• 20:58
  were thinking as they developed what we now see. I mean,
• 21:02
  they don't address things like the surveillance state. Fourth Amendment.
• 21:10
  The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers,
• 21:13
  and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated.
• 21:19
  Warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath
• 21:24
  or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched
• 21:29
  and the persons or things to be seized. Doesn't say
• 21:34
  they can't search your house. It's supposed to say that
• 21:37
  there's a high barred pass. Doesn't say you have the
• 21:45
  right to own a gun. It says that you have
• 21:47
  the right to defend yourself against anything, including an out
• 21:52
  of control government, in order to regulate that militia. That's
• 21:59
  what it says.
• 22:01

  Speaker 22: Hi, I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary
• 23:05
  Medical Association. Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping
• 23:10
  veterinarians deliver better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs
• 23:15
  that speed up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases.
• 23:19
  AI supports veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI
• 23:24
  to develop personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline
• 23:29
  kidney disease, and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can
• 23:34
  focus more on patients. But as with any new technology,
• 23:39
  always keep a human in the loop to maintain the
• 23:42
  best pet healthcare. AI is a powerful tool, but not
• 23:47
  a replacement for your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which
• 23:52
  remains at the center of our profession. For more information
• 23:56

• 24:04
  Speaker 20: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
• 24:08
  Speaker 19: Yes?
• 24:09
  Speaker 20: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch and nitric
• 24:13
  oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 24:18

  gotta grab me. You're gonna kiss me. I mean, that's

  just I don't care who you are. Where are my Altoyds? Anyway,
• 28:36
  Our sports director here, ready to open his notebook on
• 28:39
  this Tednesday morning. Good morning, sir, what's going on? Good morning?
• 28:43
  Middle of the week.
• 28:43
  Speaker 27: Tuesdays normally the day now for coaches. They want to
• 28:46
  get through Monday and then Tuesday hold the press conference.
• 28:48
  And no press conference was probably bigger than Virginia Tech
• 28:53
  and with Babcock, except Dabo Sweeney at Clemson, which I'll
• 28:56
  get to because Dabo.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Always steals this a great story, wins the day he
• 29:02
  wins another prize.
• 29:03
  Speaker 27: It was great, all right, vt A d all right,
• 29:07
  Virginia Tech Atletic Director With Babcock made an appearance before
• 29:10
  the Philip Montgomery first press conference on Tuesday.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: The committee is being formed, and I'm going to make
• 29:16
  a major guess here.
• 29:17
  Speaker 27: That I think and and uh, you know, Bud didn't
• 29:20
  say one way or the other, but I think Bud's
• 29:21
  going to be a part of the committee.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: I just feel it, and it happened.
• 29:25
  Speaker 27: But anyway, Babcock spoke for seven minutes, apologizing to the
• 29:29
  fans and stating that once the Board of visitors and
• 29:31
  everyone is in agreement on competing financially with the top
• 29:34
  echelon of the ACC, the program is going to be
• 29:37
  in better shape. Naturally, stepping up now since the firing
• 29:41
  on Sunday with Babcock off the note cards, He's not
• 29:45
  one to he wants to make sure that he's saying.
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: All the right things.
• 29:48
  Speaker 28: I'm excited for this new era and the forthcoming initiatives
• 29:51
  and opportunities planned. We truly can make a major move.
• 29:56
  As doctor SAMs referenced, the paradigm of college of the
• 29:59
  college foot ball landscape has obviously changed, and we are
• 30:03
  better positioning ourselves for success to be ahead of the
• 30:07
  curve rather than chasing behind it, you know.
• 30:09
  Speaker 27: And I can just hear the coffee shops and I
• 30:11
  can hear fans talking about money, money, money, dollars, dollars,
• 30:14
  dollars and whatever. Unfortunately, that's the and I'm going to
• 30:17
  use the word that Witt used. That's the paradigm of
• 30:19
  where we are as far as and again I made
• 30:23
  the example yesterday. I'll make it again of how state
• 30:26
  wants to see a guy in Kansas City while private
• 30:28
  plane boom go, five star boom.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: You know the guy, the guy commits. It's that quick.
• 30:33
  Speaker 27: Well, anyway, Babcock, as I said, he apologized to the
• 30:36
  fan yesterday, and he admitted it's up to Tim Sands,
• 30:41
  the president in Blacksburg, and the whole athletic department, to
• 30:46
  change with the times.
• 30:47
  Speaker 28: It's up to us to do our part as an
• 30:50
  administration and an athletic department to aggressively adapt, modernize, and invest,
• 30:56
  to win strategically and to reward this span base and
• 30:59
  a manner that they deserve, expect and demand. And we
• 31:03
  will do that.
• 31:03
  Speaker 27: All right, So making a campaign promise, of course, and
• 31:06
  it was it was a month ago, early August, late July.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: I don't remember the exact time.
• 31:11
  Speaker 27: But that's when he stood up with the board of
• 31:13
  visitors there and said, okay, we are in the bottom third,
• 31:16
  bottom tier the ACC as far as what we're you know, investing,
• 31:20
  investing in not only the football program but athletics. We've
• 31:23
  got to get to, you know, a different place and
• 31:27
  to try to keep up. So with all that being said,
• 31:30
  then Phil Montgomery spoken, we'll have more on that tomorrow
• 31:32
  because I had to save time for Dabo. All Right,
• 31:36
  the Clemson Tigers are one and two, and Dabo always
• 31:41
  I don't just I love the guy.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: I love him because of it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 27: Now he were added on, of course I can't play
• 31:49
  the whole thing. He radled on for fifteen minutes. Okay,
• 31:53
  he walked the scribes through the life and times of
• 31:57
  Clemson football for the past fifteen years, and in twenty
• 32:00
  fourteen we lost them. And then in twenty fifteen it
• 32:04
  wasn't war in peace, but it was close. So I
• 32:08
  tried to find at least twenty five or thirty seconds
• 32:11
  to honor Daba this morning, fighting to tell Clemson fans
• 32:16
  and writers don't throw dirt on a program that's one
• 32:20
  in two and fell and fell out of the top
• 32:23
  twenty five.
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, here's Dabo.
• 32:27
  Speaker 29: What's so bad about our program? Like, what's so bad
• 32:31
  about the worst season that we've had fourteen years? How
• 32:35
  many programs in college football would sign up for and
• 32:38
  only once fourteen years of none wins? How many programs
• 32:41
  would sign up for that? In the playoffs? So we
• 32:43
  all talk about we've been seven times in ten years.
• 32:46
  Who can say that if we stink because we haven't
• 32:48
  played for the national championship since January of twenty, well,
• 32:52
  I guess we stink, or we haven't won it since
• 32:55
  January of nineteen. We haven't won the national championship, Well,
• 32:57
  then I guess we stink. We're not perfect.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: May suck this year.
• 33:00
  Speaker 29: We may, we may, we may lay a freaking egg
• 33:03
  and go six and six, But I don't think.
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: So that's a press conference, right. There was no more calls,
• 33:10
  please we have a winner. You know, it's funny he
• 33:12
  mentioned that.
• 33:13
  Speaker 27: Sure, picture Tony Elliott, you know, Clemson disciple trying to
• 33:19
  rebuild Virginia with fifty four new players, and picture Tony
• 33:22
  Elliott going, I'm in my.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: Fourth year for three years. We we stink.
• 33:26
  Speaker 27: We've stunk for the I mean the so the whole
• 33:30
  the whole. You know, it depends on where you are
• 33:33
  and what you know, what it what goes here. I'm
• 33:36
  telling you, if you got thirty minutes today over a
• 33:39
  cup of coffee in your bagel and your and your
• 33:41
  cubicle mates are just you know, put on your headsets
• 33:44
  and listen to the entire press coment.
• 33:46
  Speaker 13: It is.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: It's just classical. But these colleges, so it should be
• 33:50
  these colleges, you know, tell themselves these fairy tales. Mac.
• 33:55
  I just had to do a quick look. I just
• 33:57
  had so it was. There are student who have graduated
• 34:01
  and have collected their degrees and are off into the
• 34:04
  universe from Virginia Polytechnic Institute who weren't born the last
• 34:11
  time Virginia Tech football played for a national title, which
• 34:15
  was at the end of the nineteen ninety season, nineteen
• 34:18
  ninety nine. So stop acting like you're a top ten school.
• 34:22
  You've taken over. They need to go hire a coach
• 34:25
  that is going to take you. They need to look
• 34:28
  at how James Madison University here on Constitution Day. But
• 34:32
  you know, James Madison University was a Division two school,
• 34:36
  that's what we used to call it then of the FCS. Schools.
• 34:40
  They went to games in lawn chairs, right, but they won.
• 34:44
  And they built a program that won national titles against
• 34:47
  North Dakota State, and it was you know, I think
• 34:50
  it was about a five year run where it was
• 34:52
  either JMU or North Dakota State won the national title.
• 34:56
  Then they pay all the tributes and they pay all
• 34:59
  the the hostage money to get into the Bowl subdivision
• 35:05
  and they start winning it there and they appear in
• 35:07
  bowl games and they start knocking people off. And what happened?
• 35:10
  What did they do?
• 35:11
  Speaker 27: They built, they built the stadium basically, but they put
• 35:15
  a ton of money into the program.
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: But they built players. They got they got ballers. Liberty University, Liberty,
• 35:21
  Liberty University, Jerry Fall, Jerry's kids are playing on New
• 35:26
  Year's Day because they built the program on players. They
• 35:29
  got players. And You've said this so many times, Mack
• 35:33
  and I listened to these universities. UCLA was Troy was
• 35:36
  Troy Aikman the quarterback the last time they were nationally relevant.
• 35:40
  You know, stop acting like you your Alabama or Clemson
• 35:44
  at this point, because you're not. There was a point,
• 35:47
  not all that long ago where Georgia was considered a
• 35:50
  worse football program than Vanderbilt, and then it didn't take
• 35:54
  them long. But you gotta go get the players.
• 35:58
  Speaker 27: And not since we're reminiscing nineteen seventy nine, Virginia goes
• 36:03
  between the hedges and beats Georgia thirty one.
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: Nothing. Yeah. So, but if you come in thinking you're
• 36:11
  a top ten school having a bad year, like Dabo
• 36:14
  was responding to, you're not going to fix it.
• 36:17
  Speaker 27: And unfortunately, and you bring up a great point too,
• 36:20
  you bring up a great point. Unfortunately, Bob Chesney at
• 36:24
  JAMU and Jamie Chadwell deserve a shot somewhere, and they
• 36:28
  will get their shot probably even though they're doing great
• 36:31
  as you just talked about jmu Chesney's at JAMU, Chadwell
• 36:34
  at Liberty. They've done such a terrific job and their
• 36:38
  names are being, you know, sure in the mix for
• 36:41
  the for the hokey position, but that's not going to happen.
• 36:44
  The Hokies have to make a big, big hire. We
• 36:49
  had a terrific visit yesterday, Bud and I with Mike Burnup,
• 36:53
  who for forty six years, forty six or forty three,
• 36:56
  I think it's forty three. Now he's in his forty
• 36:58
  third season as radio analyst for the football and basketball program.
• 37:03
  And Mike is just so down to earth and such
• 37:06
  a great guy.
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: And uh, you know, Mike.
• 37:09
  Speaker 27: Was saying, well, you know it it goes in waves,
• 37:12
  and it certainly goes in waves. And so I think,
• 37:15
  and I didn't ask, and he didn't tell, but I
• 37:19
  think that Bud Foster is going to serve.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: On that committee. Now, people say, way, Bud, why don't
• 37:23
  you be coming.
• 37:23
  Speaker 27: No, no, no, no, no, Bud's not going to do it
• 37:25
  for a lot of reasons, age and health, and you know,
• 37:28
  and Bud's in great health.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong. He's he's doing fine. But Bud's
• 37:32
  going to be on that committee.
• 37:33
  Speaker 27: And I think finally somebody is going to rely on
• 37:36
  Bud's knowledge within that department where I because Bud is
• 37:40
  vast you know, he and Frank Biemer talk all the time.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: So anyway that players for your your buddy Pete Gillen
• 37:49
  used to say, players play, and you know, and coaches
• 37:53
  coach players play. Yeah, that's it, just trying to get
• 37:56
  the ball in bounds. Have a good Wednesday.
• 38:01
  Speaker 15: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
• 38:04
  percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
• 38:08
  and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
• 38:11
  critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
• 38:15
  but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
• 38:19
  student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
• 38:22
  students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
• 38:26
  forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
• 38:29
  principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
• 38:33
  the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
• 38:37
  said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
• 38:41
  while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
• 38:45
  assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
• 38:49
  students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
• 38:52
  yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves
• 38:55
  to complete tasks. Visit Discovery education dot com to learn

  Speaker 30: Every year more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
• 40:37
  and from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
• 40:41
  the one for new macccle disease can protect adults from
• 40:44
  illnesses that can cause mistays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 40:49
  New macaccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 40:53
  or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 40:57
  of an infection that can spread from person to person.
• 41:00
  Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

  I'm doctor Susan Reem of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.

  Speaker 14: Think about this there are five freedoms guaranteed in the
• 43:05
  First Amendment. Freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of
• 43:09
  the press, freedom to peaceably assemble, freedom to petition the government.
• 43:14
  Which freedom can you live without? Fortunately, the First Amendment
• 43:19
  doesn't make you choose. It protects all five freedoms equally.

• 43:56
  Speaker 10: It's on.
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: About the first.
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: Thing today by Joe Thomas on the Chunk Media Network,
• 44:16
  all naturally and free of artificial intelligence.
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: Thank you ever joining us on this. Ted's d flying
• 44:46
  in the face of the fanciful retellings, and I love
• 44:49
  fanciful retellings. One of my favorite retellings is when JFK
• 44:54
  told the story of foreign correspondent Kyle mox and some
• 45:00
  of it is, you know, stone truth. To say that
• 45:06
  the First Amendment to the US Constitution and the Bill
• 45:10
  of Rights was not the first Amendment originally drafted does
• 45:13
  not diminish it. This text message from Larry Joe. It
• 45:17
  sounds like you've been co opted by the left. The
• 45:20
  first Amendment is the first amendment because it's the most important.
• 45:25
  But when they drafted the Bill of Rights, are you
• 45:28
  saying it wasn't. No, but it was still the most
• 45:31
  important individual right to be codified. But the first two
• 45:38
  amendments were going to put restrictions on how much the
• 45:41
  centralized government could work and could work against you. Was
• 45:46
  actually a defense more of the negative affirmations, As constitutional
• 45:52
  professor Barry Sotero aka Barack Obama once went on about
• 46:01
  two very negative things in the original thing. On this
• 46:06
  Constitution Day, we have to watch for the Disney retellings
• 46:11
  people in my industry. We love to self gratify ourselves
• 46:15
  over the idea that the first Amendment defends our industry. No,
• 46:19
  it doesn't wake up spe ash. Nothing in any of
• 46:26
  the other Commandments, amendments to the Constitution, nothing anywhere else
• 46:30
  in the Bill of Rights. Picks one industry. Why would
• 46:34
  the first amen pick the news media as No, it
• 46:39
  was the right to publish, the right to publish information,
• 46:44
  the right to speak, the right to associate. We're watching
• 46:47
  fanciful retellings of history right now, our flagship Augusta County
• 46:52
  in Virginia. A school teacher, no, apardon me, it's not
• 46:56
  a school teacher. School board member had the temerity to
• 47:00
  point out that evolution is still but a theory, and
• 47:05
  they follow the science crowd went and vacated their lower
• 47:09
  intestines over it, and still are doing it. It's the
• 47:12
  Scopes monkey trial again. The Scopes monkey Trial was not
• 47:17
  about whether evolution was settled science or not. Gosh, but
• 47:22
  these fanciful Disney styled retellings of history. Yeah, the First
• 47:28
  Amendment was the first individual's right to be codified in
• 47:31
  the Bill of Rights, right after they tried to hamstring
• 47:35
  and purple walk future congresses from being misrepresentative. That's all
• 47:43
  I'm poing out. Doctor Clark is on the line at
• 47:45
  four three, four, eight eight, two four to two one
• 47:48
  selling seven, Good morning, what's going on? Clark?
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: Hey, So, Joe, years and years ago, I saw a
• 47:59
  show on I don't know, Animal Planet Learning Channel, one
• 48:02
  of those kind.
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: Of things, and it explained.
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: How with certain bees wasps, when they sting something, they
• 48:14
  leave a pheromone and it lets the hive know that
• 48:18
  basically this isn't an enemy of the hive, so it's
• 48:21
  been labeled.
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: Okay, ah, now.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: This is what I saw on the thing. I haven't
• 48:28
  gone out and collected my own pheromone. I don't know
• 48:30
  if it really happens or not, but that's what I thought,
• 48:34
  So let's just stick that over to the side.
• 48:37
  Speaker 24: Now.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: The left's favorite two epithets lately have been Nazi and
• 48:42
  fascist right, and it's pretty clear that none of the
• 48:48
  people using the terms have a clue what either actually means.
• 48:54
  Matter of fact, they think Nazis were right wing, when
• 48:59
  socialist is right there in the name. So yeah, yes,
• 49:07
  the right wing socialists. And you know, when the basic
• 49:10
  todays of conservatism are personal responsibility, individual freedom, and limited
• 49:18
  government as defined by the Constitution, it's kind of hard
• 49:22
  to make fascist where the individual is nothing, the state
• 49:27
  is everything in the state is all powerful.
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: Fit No, it's not.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Now Now, thanks to a little helpful an American Thinker article,
• 49:38
  we can know what fascist means when you hear the
• 49:43
  left say he's a fascist. That means I hate that
• 49:48
  person and I want everyone else to hate this person.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: Oh, I see the pheromone analogy here.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Now they are labeling that's their fair to label a
• 50:01
  person an enemy of the hives.
• 50:03
  Speaker 4: Nice. I like that. That is that is that's like
• 50:07
  master's degree level deep think. Oh man, that's good.
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: See I could go posthold digger if I needed to.
• 50:17
  So you know, the thing is is when you look
• 50:23
  at it in that light, fascist, racist, sexist, homophobe.
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: What else?
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, let's see election denis, anti vaxer. These are all
• 50:42
  pheromones the left uses to label enemies of the hive.
• 50:46
  Speaker 4: Show so the other ones know, that's that's one of
• 50:49
  the people. We should go and just sting anyone and
• 50:54
  anyone's who has ever drove driven a lawnmower over one
• 50:58
  of those ground hives. No exactly what doctor Clark is
• 51:01
  talking about. Yes it is. But but here's the thing.
• 51:09
  But you know, the the enemy of the hive, So
• 51:11
  what does the hive want? See in the case of
• 51:14
  a hornet or a wasp, they're looking to go and
• 51:18
  do their their business. Some some of them are pollinators
• 51:21
  and such. It's it's more important to know what the
• 51:24
  business before you pour the gasoline down the hole in
• 51:27
  your backyard and light at a fire. What are those
• 51:30
  what are those pheromone jockeys doing? What is their role
• 51:36
  in the ecosystem? And there this, These are parasites. These
• 51:40
  are essentially if we're going to stay in insects more
• 51:44
  locusts than they are anything else.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Well, you nailed it right there, Joe, because they play
• 51:51
  a role in the ecosystem and everything. But you come
• 51:55
  out of that hole and sing me or mon and uh,
• 52:00
  gasoline's going down the hall.
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah. So I don't know, you got to think.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: That I hate you. I want everyone else to hate you.
• 52:12
  And it's usually reserved for someone that's retarding the progress
• 52:18
  of Marxism in some way.
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: Oh sure, absolutely, and anyone who supports it, whether it
• 52:23
  be the President of the United States or a guy
• 52:27
  like Charlie Kirk or you or me out there in
• 52:31
  shining the Clee lamp on it while we still can.
• 52:34
  And this is why these elections are important, not so
• 52:37
  much to get somebody into an elected office, but to
• 52:40
  make sure that the people who want to spread their
• 52:44
  pheromones and sting the enemies of the hive. Don't get
• 52:47
  in to those elected offices in today's troubled world. Are
