• 0:16
  Speaker 1: It's Mike and Mark. I'll give him top billing and
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: we talk about stuff. So I thought, look, if I'm
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: doing Stagall Tuesdays and Wednesdays, why not do this for
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the country. So Mike is here and I could not
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: be happier. How you doing, my friend?
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm great because you know the other part, the
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: fun part of this is that maybe just maybe we
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: can preview our upcoming Eminem Extra podcast, which is coming
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: along and for the benefit of people for Christa Golfans
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: who don't know about Eminem. You and I go back
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: many years, and you and I have done this segment
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: together on your show. Because you are the king, the
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Dean of Texas talk show hosts. I mean, now, of
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: course you're become like the co host of the Will
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Kine Show on Fox News Chow, You're the co host
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: of the Chris Cuomo Show on News Nations. So you're
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: the go to for all and you've been added one
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: hundred years. Everybody loves you. Everybody knows Mark Davis. So
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: years ago, almost a decade ago, I think you invited
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: me to come visit with you at seven thirty five.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: We call it hashtag seven thirty five and preview my show,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: which typically came on after you in Dallas. Well, something
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: magical occurred over the years, and people love our interactions.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: They love the chemistry. They love it when you and
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: I disagree, which is fun but rare, and it's become
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: known as the M and M experience. So you said, hey,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: if I'm going to do the Stagall Show this week
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: for a couple of days, why don't we do an
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: eminem version national.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: So here we are. That is it.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: So if people love this, we're gonna do some hot topics.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I do have one thing from the popular culture for you,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: but we'll do some hot breaking things of the news.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And if you dig this for like ten minutes right here,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: we're going to at some point after midday of the
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: afternoon start dropping this in video and audio podcast form
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: for the entire country and the world to consume.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: More on that later.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So this morning and For the last day or two,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I've been looking at war support and how things are going.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I was just talking to Colonel Kurch Schlickter, a friend
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to both of us, and he says he's tired of
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the doomsayers, the sad sacks, the Debbie downers, and we
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: don't all need to be raw, raw cheerleaders where nothing
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: wrong is going on and there's no cause for concern.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Everything's perfect here. But I kind of agree with it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: But I wonder what your thoughts are about some even
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: supposedly under our big tent, who seem to be just
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: doing a lot of complaining, whether it's midterms, whether it's Iran.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know what's your thought.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Well, four dreaded words, boots on the ground. That's going
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: to be the pivotal moment when the American people are
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: going to either stay on board or they're going to say,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: uh uh, I'm out. I'm out. If we've got boots
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: on the ground, if we've got troops, if we're dropping
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: in the Marines to extract uranium from Iran. I think
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: the average American voter is going to say that's a
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: bridge too far from my perspective. I mean, first of all,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: it's just disgusting to watch how many people on the
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: left and how the media and Democrats are actually rooting
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: for Iran. They're cheering for it, they're actually hoping we
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: fail because of their their blind, rage filled hatred of
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump. So that's disgusting. For forty seven years, we've
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: essentially been at war with Iran, so we know all
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: the reasons that President Trump decided to do what we did.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Having said that, the longer this takes, the harder it's
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: going to be for us to have any chance of winning.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: And you and I are always on the same page.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: We got to win, Mark, we got to win. I
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: am up at night. I know the conventional wisdom is, hey,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: the party in control always loses in the midterms. We
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: got all these headwinds we're up against. Mark, it will
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: be a catastrophe if we lose the House in the
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Senate in November. We all know it, and we got
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to do everything to prevent that from happening. And Iran,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: unfortunately plays I think a pretty significant piece and all
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that it does.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I've said, if we are still neck deep in something
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: that looks like a war operation in August or Septembers,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: this needs to go well, and it needs to go
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: well compactly. So looking at the calendar, and I think
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you're right about that boots on the ground trigger point.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Can we have a couple of boots on a couple
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of square miles of ground for something that seems surgically precise.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: In the month of April?
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Or will that instantly just shut a bunch of people
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: down and gop This is not what Trump ran on,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: This is not what I voted for.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: It seems clear that control of the Strait of Horror
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Moves is key. If we get control of the straight
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: of Horn moves and the oil gets flowing again, I
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: mean right now, officially today it's now official gas nationally
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: is averaging four dollars a gallon now, look still better
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: than it was under Biden. But we have short memories
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: and we're in the moment right now, So get the
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Straight of hor Moves under control. There's all this talk
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: about taking control of this island with the oil refiner
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: on it and everything else. Marco Rubio, who I keep saying,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: keep an eye on this guy for twenty twenty eight,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, don't rule him out because he's like, you know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: whatever you think of JD or Marco he's surging. Marco
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Rubio is surging, and I think is a guy to
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: watch very carefully for twenty twenty eight. But he has
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: indicated he thinks we're looking at maybe two weeks, two
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: or three more weeks and then things decrease dramatically. I
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: hope and pray that's the case. I mean, here in
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Florida again, another special election, a typically reliably Republican district,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: A little Democrat wins by four hundred votes. And incidentally,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: all these special elections, have you noticed the margin of
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: victory for the Democrats in all of these? It's like
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: three hundred here, eight hundred votes there, five hundred. They're
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: all wishes. Anybody do it? Connecting the dots here? Voter
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: integrity anyone? I mean, it does matter, and you got
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: to show up.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: You got to show up, and we got to get
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act passed because I don't know how
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: much fraud there is one fraudulent vote?
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Is too many? Is it a fraction of one percent?
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Is it three percent? Is it ten? Is it two?
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: But there's nothing wrong with focusing on that. I can't
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: believe Mark, Mark, Remember those is on spring break durymember.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: And there's Lindsay at Disney World.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, Lindsay goes to Disney World, and look, I
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: get that there they it's not this is not a
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Republican shutdown. But for crying out loud, can you read
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: the room a little bit? You're a public figure. I mean,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure people appreciate anybody at Dollywood or or
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: or or or Space Mountain at the time. But can
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: we go back to election integrity for a minute, because
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: this is really important and this is a story that
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people are missing. All these
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: special elections, none of them are blowouts, but it's Democrat wins. Here,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Democrat wins, and there's oh look there's a Texas Democrat victory.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Oh there's a Georgia Democrat victory. Now there's a Florida
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and they're all by like hundreds of votes. You know
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: what their mantra was. In twenty twenty, there was no
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: evidence of any widespread election fraud. Okay, Fred, that's the key.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: You don't need widespread. If you win by four hundred,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: that's not widespread. Joe Biden by a he run by
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: a razor thin margin. In twenty twenty, people forget that,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: and that's why they save America Act matters, Mark, that's
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: why it's got to get passed in.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Two or three minutes. A couple of quick culture bursts.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: You and I both share a great love for Taylor
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Sheridan from The Yellowstones, the eighteen eighty threes, the nineteen
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: twenty threes. Here comes Rip and Beth May fifteenth.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: It's the best. Yeah, I don't think. I don't think
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: we've talked about this his latest thing on right now?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Have you spent one moment in the company of the Madison.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Two episodes and I can't believe how awful I think
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: it is.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Two episodes. The matter with you? You like the man
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: I am.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: It is wrapped so tightly around my hearts.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Are great. It is the theme from.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: The Dysfunctional Kids to Devotion to I don't want to
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: give too much away.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: There's a huge spoiler in the first episode.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I want to don't so it's Kurt Russell, it's Michelle Pfeiffer,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: both at the top of their game.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: I love this thing so much.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: The heels a project Hail Mary where you're the only
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: person who didn't like it.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: You're also left cold by the Madison.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know why. I mean, maybe it was on
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: the wrong movie. But then again, let's go back to
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: the movie that everybody thinks is the biggest hit movie
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: in a thousand years, and that's that stupid talking rock,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: that that idiotic space movie. That was one of the
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: dumbest things I've ever suffered through. I thought, that's two
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and a half hours of my life. I can never
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: get back. Jim, And you know I joked with you
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: about Jim Henson's muppets. That look apparently that was the guy,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: the guy behind Rocky the Rock was like a muppeteer,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: not even a good one. Give me Oscar the Grouch,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: give me Big Bird. That thing was so stupid. I thought,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: this is the dumbest and everybody, oh, this is the
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: greatest movie since Gone with the Wind.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Oh they didn't use a green screen? Yeah, I could tell.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: I could see there wasn't a green state. They should
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: have put in a couple of green screens.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: I can almost give you.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I could give you some of the cheesiness about Project
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: KL Mary, but boy, were you in as because from
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: from the Madison for what what Taylor Taylor Sheridan's writing
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: and just to wear it all seems to be going.

  Speaker 3: I'm three episodes in.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Absolutely there's been some stuff he's done, Lioness and the
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: thing that Jeremy Ryder is in that I don't care
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: about that much, but but I just loved you.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Well, he's and he's a national treasure. I mean, Beth
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: when the Beth and Rip series come, because trust me,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: everybody needs a Beth Dutton in their life. If I
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: just had a Beth Dutton, oh my gosh, Beth Dutton,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, you need to be taken to the do
• 9:55
