Wicked Radio 2-11: Nancy Guthrie Case Mess, Curt Cobain Murdered?, & Another Whiny U.S. Olympian · Wicked Radio with Bill Adams

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Not like I have any interest in doing a podcast
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: that's true crime or investigative things and all this other stuff.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: But some of these stories that are out now, you
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: can't help it, Like you can't help ask questions and
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: look at investigations because I think there's a larger issue here.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: This whole Savannah Guthrie's mom Nancy Guthrie investigation, it is
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: an absolute mess. Didn't you always think, like, especially somebody
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: that's high profile, and it's a fair question why she's
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: getting so much attention, you know, it's just kind of
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: human nature the way it works. Didn't you always think
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: that if somebody was related to a high profile person
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: like Savannah Guthrie, they'd either find her good news or
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: bad news almost immediately. Didn't you always think like that?
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Maybe not, I mean, it's kind of horrifying to think,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: but maybe our I don't blame the FBI or CIA,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: but maybe our investigative resources aren't exactly what we thought
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: they were. I don't know. And then to follow up
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: on that, maybe we should stop doubting conspiracy theorist. So
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: what we used to call conspiracy theorists because this Kurt
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Cobain story, you all know, Kurt Cobain from Nirvana died
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety four, and we were told the whole time,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the official answer was from the King County, Washington State investigators,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: was that this was a suicide. Nothing ever matched up
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: with a suicide on that, And now there's an independent
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: forensic analysis of that and they've determined that it was
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a homicide. Everybody I know since nineteen ninety four, everybody
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: that I know that has looked into this not looked
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: into it too officially, just has an opinion on being
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: a music fan, Nirvana fan, or what. Never believe the
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: official answer, and maybe maybe they were right the whole time.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Also looks like Trump is hopeful on the Save Act
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and we have another whiny US Olympian. I'm telling you, guys,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: if the communication director, the media relations director for the
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: US Olympic team isn't fired over this, the summer Olympics
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: in LA are going to be an absolute mess. Anyway,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Let's get to it. Thanks for finding Wicked Radio. I
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: appreciate you as always. Thanks for finding the live stream
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: money through Friday, eight am Eastern time on x and
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: YouTube and on Facebook and all that good stuff. Let's
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: get right to it. This is this Nancy. I didn't
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: have any interest in covering this thing because my initial
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: thought at the beginning was this is going to be
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: like really bad. I'm like really afraid of this. This
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: is gonna be this is gonna be scary. They're gonna
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: find this lady in horrible and they still might. But
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the investigation has got me answered asking questions. And I've
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: heard this question a lot. My younger daughter actually asked
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: this question. You know, there are so many people that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: are missing on a daily basis. Why is this lady
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: getting so much attention? Fair question. I guess human nature
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: being what it is. Because she's related to a famous person,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: her daughter is Savannah Guthrie. That's totally fair. So it's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: just kind of the way it works. Also, there's this, though,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the bizarre circumstances around the investigation of this. I have
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: to say it's a I know there's good people working
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: on this. They're doing the best they possible we can.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: And I said it last week. I think it was
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: last Wednesday or something. It's nice to see people rallying
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: around despite what you think of Savannah Guthrie, and she's
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: no friend of you know, President Trump. That's for sure,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: neither was her mom. Apparently, you hate to see anybody,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: any family going through this, regardless of what the circumstances are.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: But then yesterday this development happens. We all saw this
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: picture of the bizarre I guess they recovered forensically somehow
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the ring doorbell camera where there was that creepy guy
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: kind of dismantling the cameras in a ski mask and
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: it was in black and white, and this was a
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: big investigation. Then last night the news happens that the
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I think it was the FBI or local cops somewhere
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: south of Tucson pulled over a guy and arrested and
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: detained him for questioning and then released him and said
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I had nothing to do with I don't even know
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: who the hell this is. And then the most bizarre
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: thing of all is that guy's mother does a live
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: interview with CNN on the street outside of the outside
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of the house, which is something you never see, and
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: it went like this saw they came out, knows that
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: they had somebody gave a tip that the lady was
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: in the house.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know her name.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: The coming from her that we don't know, we don't
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: know it I don't I don't know who she is.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything about her.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: They only said that.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Even CNN was blown away. They went back to the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: anchors and they said, oh, apparently we're talking to the
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: alleged suspect's mom who's been released. Let's go to her now.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: They couldn't believe she was talking because the lady human
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: nature being what it is, she just said, I don't
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: know what the hell this is. And then they found
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the guy these finally back home after they're releasing him.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: He's like, I have no idea what this is. But
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was being I thought I was
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: being kidnapped. This whole investigation is so bizarre.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Apprehended for questioning, how would you describe what happened to you?
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Terrifying something I didn't do for something I was being like,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was a mean kidnap broke.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: They didn't tell me anything at to begin And IFAs
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: skators showed up to this house or were you the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: one who's pulled over in the traffic style.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: I was only up with over at the traffic stock.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Where was that right here on by to us?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Okay? And you were taken into costume I felt like
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I was getting kidnapped. Bro, that's his comment on it. Ah,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: just so bizarre, and it's been bizarre since the beginning
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: of this entire thing. Now here's somebody I saw last week,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: and I saved this video, this little interview clip, because
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: this kind of lines up with I think what a
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: lot of us are thinking. This is just something wrong
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: with this. Not to blame the investigators. I'm sure they're
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: trying their best, but something just doesn't add up on this.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I'm not an investigator either.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: But this guy's name is Paul Ciolino, so he's a investigator.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: He's a contributor to CBS, he's worked with forty eight
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: hours before. He knows this stuff. And he said, now,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: this was before they even found this guy and released
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: him or talked to the mom in the street. He
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: said last week, the end of last week, Nothing in
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: this entire case even lines up.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: I don't think she was kidding apped. We would have
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: heard listen, there would have been a video, there would
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: have been a photograph, the would have been something, a
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: lock of hair, drop of blood, something mailed to somebody
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: so they could verify. Yes, in fact, these people have
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: my kidnappers want to get paid quickly.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: They don't want this thing to linger. If you're negotiating
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: with another drug dealer in South America somewhere, it could
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: go on for a few weeks a month until they
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: get bored and decide this is not worth it and
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: it's either pay up or we're gonna kill this person.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: And it's always a negotiation, right. The first figure that
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: I threw out is never what actually gets paid. Like
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: any good business deal, they's gonna be a negotiation, but
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be a fast and hard one. And there's
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: been no negotiations. No one's called.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Like I said, I'm no investigator either.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I'm not even that much into true crime. But this
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: is just so bizarre and we're hit with it every
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: single day. Again, Is it fair that somebody who's well
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: known or connected to somebody that's famous gets so much
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: media attention. No, but also hasn't helped. Just a bizarre,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: bizarre thing, all right again, And I repeat it again,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Not like I ever wanted to do a true crime podcast,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: but people are fascinated by this stuff, probably because it's
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: this never ending search for truth. We just want to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: get the truth right. And speaking of truth since nineteen
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: ninety four, I literally maybe you're the same way my
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: entire life whenever the subject of Kurt Cobain. Remember Nirvana
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: smells like teen Spirit, massive band, early nineties. Kurt Cobain
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: died in nineteen ninety four. Mean this, literally, I've never
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: had a conversation with anybody ever about the conversation that
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: believed that that was a suicide and just talk about
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: nothing adding up. Ever, and now lo and behold, maybe
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: you know, and those people were always called conspiracy theorists.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: You know, always how many times of conspiracy theorist has
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: been right about a lot of stuff, and possibly maybe
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: on this one too, because now get in and I
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: want to make sure I get my facts right, because
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: this one is very detailed. Now there's new forensic analysis
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: that claims Kurt Cobain's nineteen ninety four death, that's the
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: longest's been going on was a homicide, not suicide. And
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: it's not just like some you know, a couple of
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: CSI wantab podcasters doing this whole thing. It's a peer
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: reviewed paper in the International Journal of Forensic Science. New
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: evidence not so much, but new technology they're challenging the
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: official ruling of Kurt Cobain's death, which almost if you
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: happen to remember this story back in nineteen ninety four,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: immediately well no questions asked, was ruled a suicide and
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: nothing really added up shotgun really anyway, forensic specialists reviewed
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: the autopsy and crime scene. The conclusion was this is
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: a homicide, and they said, without any doubt whatsoever the
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: findings here you go, Oregon damage consisting with oxygen deprivation
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: from a heroin overdose, not gunshot death. What unusually clean
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: hands despite shotgun blast shellcasings found in an impossible location,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: heroin kit even though he was a heroin aatic but
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: still heroin kit, neatly organized blood on his shirt, suggesting
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the body was moved. Suicide. Note the researchers say the
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: top portion discusses quitting the band. The final four lines
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: appear to be in different handwriting. SEATTLEPD, which did the investigation,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: and medical examiner both declined to reopen the case. Ever,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I remember that despite calls for this, research is demanding arrests.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: So here's what's happening. Because of this, they're reopening the
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: case to take a look at it to see what
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: actually did happen. Say, here's my takeaway on this. Okay,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: how many? Not every time? Not every time. We've all
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: got some friends that will believe any possible conspiracy theory
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: just to get attention. We all know that, right, But honestly,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: ask yourself, how many times have the so called conspiracy
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: theorists been right about stuff? Look at it, look at
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: their history. I'm not one that's going to doubt them
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: too much anymore. I'm just gonna say that. Okay, maybe
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: maybe we need to put like a fifteen twenty year
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: if you want to wait that long rule on whether
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: we call it conspiracy theorists crazy or not, because so
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: far they're at a ninety percent success rate on it.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: And this is amazing. And even though it's a yeah,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: it's a celebrity story, it's a music story, it's a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: rock and roll story, sad ending and all that other stuff.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: It goes to show you, though, how many people have
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: asked questions seeking the truth. The reason why conspiracy theorists
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: and theories exist out there is because people don't feel
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: like they're getting the real truth. Certainly not from the media,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: good god, no, not from politicians in many cases, not
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: police departments or investigators. That's why these theories pop up,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and that's why people like this forensic study on Kurt
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Cobain's death happen to seek the truth. I'm not going
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to doubt the conspiracy theorists onto anything anymore until I
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: getm a little bit of time. Unless they unless they
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: throw that out there just to cause more damage and
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: more pain to people, because that's keep an eye on
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: that story. Unbelievable. And now because of this, because of
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: those independent researchers, that and that Science journal I has
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: reopened the Kurt Cobain case on their own. Yeah, the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: official case is being reopened. Wow. All right, let's get
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: out of here for a second. Too much CSI crime
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: scene stuff for me. Let's talk about what's going on
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: in the news. Trump Sound Trump did an interview with
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Larry Cutlow, the business anchor Larry What's the deal Larry Cutlow,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and he asked some good questions, mainly about voter ID
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: in the Save Act. Lots of bills in Congress, but
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: mainly about the Save Act. I gotta tell you, this
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: is the most hopeful I've heard President Trump say about
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the Save Act and voter ID in quite some time.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe he knows he's got the votes to pass it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: But anyway, this was yesterday with Larry Cumelo.
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: Do we have other things in mind? Yeah, we do.
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: We have things in mind, and we have perfecting a
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: little bit of what we did, because this is really
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: this is the biggest bill ever passed in the history
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: of Congress, and it's a great thing. But we also
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: have other bills we want to get. We want to
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: get the Save America Act fast. Save America is on voting.
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: We want people to have voter ID, we want people
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: to have proof of citizenship, and we want to have
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: no mail in ballots other than if you're in the military,
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: or you're sick, or you're away for some reasonable but
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: good excuse.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Can that get done?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: You think?
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: Before the midterms.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: Calls it about ninety four percent, including Democrats are at
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: eighty seven percent.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: He usually says, if you follow Trump closely, he usually
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: starts talking about something he wants done. When he pivots
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: right to what the polls say, it's usually he has
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: if he has a tell that's one of them. That
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: means usually works out this way. He's using the polls
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and the popularity of a certain thing that he aligns
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: with to force politicians to go along with it. That's
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: usually how he works on this whole stuff. So gone
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: by that guess it sounds like he's pretty confident this
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: is going to get the votes. Now, speaking of the votes,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: this is why I always tell you, if I've learned
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: anything through following news and media and all this crap
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: for so many years, I'm telling you, and I will
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: say this till the day I'm gone. It's not a
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Democrat Republican thing. It's not blue red, it's not Donkey
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and elephant. Crooks and non crooks, and unfortunately we have
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: more crooks than we have non crooks. There's one. It's
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the litmus test of whether you're a crook or not,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: whether you want to cheat elections or not, whether you're
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: just interested in power or not the constituency you're supposed
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: to represent. If you oppose voter ID, it's for one reason,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: and one reason only. You want to cheat elections. That's it.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Because you don't think you're gonna get elected otherwise. That's
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: the only reason why, and that'll never ever change. Now,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: you would think every Republican in Congress is going to
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: be for the Save Act, right, Oh no, oh no, no, no, no,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: don't assume that. Plenty of crooks on that side too.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Case in point, Senator Lisa Murkowski quote unquote Republican from Alaska.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: She's a no vote in that something. Why is that, well,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: she's claiming because of the photo ID portion of it.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna try to I don't know what the explanation,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: you know, but who the hell can't get a voter ID?
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Who the hell can't get a photo ID? It's almost
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: impossible not to be able to get one in this society.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: So she's against it. Again, I'll use finger quotes. Republican
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you know, you know it's for it. He's going to
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: vote for it. John Fetterman quote unquote Democrat votes for it.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: He might be the only, I swear to you, the
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: only honest Democrat that's actually in Congress right now. Fetterman's
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: gonna vote for it because he sees the common sense
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: in it. So again, I'm telling you, when it comes
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to this thing, and it's the most beautiful argument of all,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: let's hope to god it passes because it's the only
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: shot we have of possibly saving elections in this country.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: But the great thing is it is. It's the ultimate
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: litmus test crooks or non crooks. If you are a krook,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: you're going to vote against voter idea in the Save Act.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: It's that simple. I know that sounds oversimplified. I get it,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I totally do. But it's that simple. It's and it's again,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: it's not by party lines. It's just not. It's crook
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: and non crook. Even even if it's some of your
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: favorite politicians you thought were on the level. Ah well,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: let's find let's find out if they are or not.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: See how they vote on this thing. All right, let's
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: get an Olympics update. Do I have a metal count
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: for you?
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: How this?
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: How's the USA doing? No idea, I have absolutely no idea.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I saw a little bit of curling yesterday on the
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: TV because everybody loves to see that. That became a
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: big popular thing because it's so silly. That's one of
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: the beer sports, right. Curling is one of the Curling
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: fascinates me because it's you know this, you know you
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: know that this started with a bunch of drunk guys somewhere.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know what. I think it originated in uh, Scandinavia,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: but you know, we adopted it. Of course, it's big
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: in Michigan. It's being in Wisconsin, Minnesota where we will
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: talk about near second, like how did curling come to?
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: You know, you throw the stone, you brush it with
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: a broom. It's like, you know, two guys, two drunk
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: guys in the bar. We're outside of frozen Lake in
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe uh, Upper Wisconsin somewhere sometime, and they said, hey,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: let's throw this stone down there and let's see who
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: gets it, gets it further. And somebody goes, hey, I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: can make this better. Give me that broom and the
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: corner and I'll sweep it and then I'll try to
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: steer the thing. So I think that's the appeal of curling.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I have not watched a lot of Winter Olympics because
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I will be completely and totally honest with you. It
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: may think this is childish, you may think this is ridiculous.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: I'm tired of the Olympians talking. There have been some
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: great ones. Lindsay Vaughn, that's been fantastic. There have been
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: that American figure skater that dude won and he was
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: all proud of the country and all this other stuff.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: If there's any sporting event where it's where you're supposed
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: to drape yourself in your country's flag. I don't care
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: whether it's France or England or Finland, or the United
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: States or Canada. This is when you're supposed to. Which
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: is why it bothers me so much that we have
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: so many whiny US athletes. Are athletes from any other
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: country whining about their border, any athletes from any other country,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: maybe they are complaining about the situation back home, and
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: it's all it's tough. It's just tough for me. I'm
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: telling you. If we don't fix the commune, thecations department,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: from the US Olympic team, the US Olympic Committee, whoever's
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: in charge of controlling media for this, the US Summer
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Olympics in LA are going to be a freaking mess.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: You just wait, because you have to tell these people
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: to shut up at some point. NFL teams do it,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: NBA teams do it. They try, NHL MLB they try
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: to direct their athletes to not get in trouble and
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: say stupid things. And this is a stupid thing. We
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: have another winy athlete lo and behold, it happens to
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: be a curler. Curling, like, do your sweepy ice thing
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and stop talking about the country. But no they can't.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: They have a microphone in front of their face, so
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: they feel entitled to do it again. Any other athletes
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: from countries doing this kind of thing, But I don't
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: think so.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: First of all, like to say, I'm proud to be
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: here to represent Team USA and to represent our country.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: But we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: it's been for everybody. Off is happening right right around
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: where we live. And Uh, I am a lawyer, as
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: you know, and we do the cost. We have a
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: constitution and it allows us to freedom of the press
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: and freedom of speech. Uh protects us from unreasonable searches
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: and seizures.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Nowhere, Okay, mister lawyer Curler, he's a curling lawyer, doesn't
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: mean he's a good lawyer. Doesn't mean he pasted top
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: of the class. Where in your state or federal US
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: constitution does it say that you have a right to
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: be here illegally? Where does it say that the federal
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: government does not have a right, Then, mister lawyer Curler
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: to go in and grab a rapist or a murderer
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: off the street that's here illegally and deport them. Where's it?
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: And you claim to be a lawyer. Really is that right? Okay?
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: And you do have a you know what, you do
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: have a right. You have every right in the world.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: I will defend your right to sit there at that
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: press conference is say what you have to do. It
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean you freaking have to do it. Shut up.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Nothing you're saying is helping. All you're doing is causing
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: more controversy. And all you're doing is disparaging your other
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Olympic athletes because people like me are tuning out and
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: they're not watching your stupid little curling game or the
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: other awesome things like skiing or hockey. I don't know
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: what the ratings are, but I mean there's plenty of
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: people tuning out because they don't want to hear these
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: idiots anymore. Tired of it. Shut up, This is not
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the time to do it. This is not the time
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: and place. If you want to do that, it at
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: your local Minnesota curling event or the quarterfinals are whatever
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: the hell it is you do back in the States. Great,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: do it. This ain't it, This is not it to
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: start whining about politics on the international stage. Shut up,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and whoever the hell is in charge of the Olympic
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Committee Communications Media Department needs to get fired yesterday for this.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: They are off. Somebody needs to look into this. Shut
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: up and of course it's going to get spun by saying,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: oh Trump, let's to len's athletes, and he's a dictator
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: at a fascist No. Smart countries would not put up
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: with this because this is not the stage. And thankfully
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: great past and current US Olympics olympians are saying, this
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: is the time to drape yourself in the flag. This
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: is time to show American American respect, not this, not
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: this stage, not this moment, not this time. But they
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: can't help themselves because they're sitting there at a conference
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: stable and they have a microphone like this in front
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: of it, and they think that what they say is
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: so important, right, that's what I'm a lawyer, and I'm
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: on the US curling team, so I would be remiss
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: by talking about what's going on back home near my
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: home in Minnesota. Not the time, not the place, you
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: absolute d bag, Shut up, and don't do that on
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: foreign soil, do it. Back home if you want, you
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: have all every right in the world. This ain't it,
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: This is not it? All right, EANX for finding me.
• 20:54

• 21:18
  Speaker 1: don't doubt you. Here's the big takeaway today, because of
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: all these crime scene stories, let's just take a couple
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: of beats the next time we laugh at conspiracy theorists
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: because so far they've been pretty right. Don't have to
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: believe them a hundred percent, but let's get them a
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: little bit of extra elbow room here. I'm giving them
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: some because this Kurt Cobain thing is something to listen to,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: and even the Nancy Guthrie story too. It's because we
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: seek information that part of it is not a bad thing.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: All right. Thanks to finding me. I appreciate you making
• 21:44
