0:02
Speaker 1: Fiant.
0:03
Speaker 2: I'm more megan now make America great again than I've
0:07
Speaker 2: every been.
0:08
Speaker 1: Morning's Great Again. First thing today on the Chunk Media
0:12
Speaker 1: Network by Joe Thomas.
0:13
Speaker 3: Do you ever need to get hold of us, We'll
0:16
Speaker 3: just give us a Greek.
0:37
Speaker 4: Oh basking in the glow of tedsty morning both on
0:42
Speaker 4: amplitude and frequency modulation signals wherever you may be. Appreciate
0:46
Speaker 4: you taking your time out of a busy day and
0:50
Speaker 4: sharing whatever little bits you've got with us so that
0:53
Speaker 4: we can tell you what went on last night. We
0:55
Speaker 4: can give you our analysis of what went on last night,
1:00
Speaker 4: but most importantly, I want to hear how it is
1:02
Speaker 4: impacting you where you are. Terry writes in my favorite
1:08
Speaker 4: part of this morning is when you pointed out that
1:10
Speaker 4: the King of England brought more humor to his speech
1:14
Speaker 4: than Jimmy Kimmel did.
1:16
Speaker 3: Absolutely spot on. Well, you know, and comedy.
1:24
Speaker 4: Comedy is a very important part of life, and it
1:30
Speaker 4: is a part of civilized society that I don't think
1:36
Speaker 4: we pay enough attention to it. We trivialize comedy partially
1:41
Speaker 4: because we've gone into this woke world of you know,
1:47
Speaker 4: the Sisterhood of the insulted sisterhood. And if somebody makes
1:54
Speaker 4: a joke and it hits a little close to home,
1:56
Speaker 4: there's a reason it is disquieting, because if it resonates,
2:05
Speaker 4: then it's something in your head saying, hey, that was
2:09
Speaker 4: kind of about us, wasn't it. And I remember it
2:19
Speaker 4: was Kevin Hart or Chris Rock or someone was making
2:24
Speaker 4: a joke about dad jokes and he said, he said,
2:30
Speaker 4: I can't do dad jokes. I didn't have one, and
2:33
Speaker 4: the whole crowd he was the biggest joke of all.
2:37
Speaker 4: And you know, but it's a disquieting thing to think
2:40
Speaker 4: about a kid growing up without a dad to make
2:43
Speaker 4: fun of. But comedy is supposed to move our societal needles,
2:51
Speaker 4: so that the things that the stand up philosopher, as
2:55
Speaker 4: mel Brooks referred to himself as in History of the
2:58
Speaker 4: World Part One, are stand up philosophers shine a mirror
3:03
Speaker 4: on the kind of goofy stuff that maybe we want
3:06
Speaker 4: to think twice about doing, or we could just say,
3:10
Speaker 4: stuff that makes us go just where Jimmy Kimmel lands.
3:17
Speaker 4: But still doesn't mean the FCC needs to investigate all
3:20
Speaker 4: of the stations that carry his.
3:22
Speaker 3: Late night program.
3:23
Speaker 4: And that was the latest from the Federal Communications Commission
3:26
Speaker 4: is that ABC owned and operated television stations have been
3:30
Speaker 4: given thirty days to file reports with the Federal Communication Commission.
3:37
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, in the.
3:38
Speaker 4: Real world, gasoline on average, according to Triple A, is
3:42
Speaker 4: four dollars and eighteen cents at per gallon, a one
3:45
Speaker 4: point six percent increase in one single day, at the
3:50
Speaker 4: highest level it's been since April of twenty twenty two.
3:55
Speaker 4: President Trump said, however, that in this conflict that is
3:58
Speaker 4: being pointed to by all the price risers, that's about
4:03
Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormos, and it's about unsurety of where
4:07
Speaker 4: the oil is coming from when it's early, about our
4:10
Speaker 4: green agenda and the closure of many of our refining facilities.
4:18
Speaker 4: President Trump tweeted early this morning that sh Iran has
4:23
Speaker 4: just informed us they are in a state of collapse.
4:26
Speaker 3: Quote.
4:27
Speaker 4: They want us to open the Strait of Hormoz as
4:30
Speaker 4: soon as possible and try to as they try to
4:34
Speaker 4: figure out their leadership situation. Meanwhile, Iran has lost allies.
4:45
Speaker 4: The United Arab Emirates, just on the other side of
4:49
Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormuz, has announced it will leave the
4:53
Speaker 4: Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries OPEK effective Friday, the oil
5:01
Speaker 4: cartel's largest producer has acknowledged that they will go on
5:07
Speaker 4: to the free market and start to sell oil themselves.
5:11
Speaker 4: This could lower the oil prices even before combat with
5:15
Speaker 4: Iran comes to a close. Meanwhile, Iran also found out
5:21
Speaker 4: that all the other Arab states are siding with the
5:24
Speaker 4: United States when it comes to their blockade and their
5:27
Speaker 4: potential to charge tolls on the Strait of Hormuz. The
5:35
Speaker 4: King of England spoke to a joint session of Congress
5:39
Speaker 4: said this has been one of the most consequential alliances
5:44
Speaker 4: in human history, meaning the one between the United States
5:48
Speaker 4: and Great Britain, and then he gave the president a
5:51
Speaker 4: bell from the HMS Trump a submarine.
5:55
Speaker 3: Those are our first.
5:56
Speaker 4: Things in July, just after our independence and stay celebration

Speaker 2: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
8:07
Speaker 2: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
8:13
Speaker 2: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
8:18
Speaker 2: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
8:22
Speaker 2: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
8:27
Speaker 2: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
8:32
Speaker 2: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
8:37
Speaker 2: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
8:42
Speaker 2: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
8:46
Speaker 2: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
8:51
Speaker 2: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com, where

9:17
Speaker 7: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
9:21
Speaker 7: are not from US. Real Social Security employees will never

9:29
Speaker 7: call like this, hang up. Never give the call of

Speaker 7: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
9:46
Speaker 7: enforcement on the Office of the Inspector General at OIG
9:51

9:59
Speaker 3: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack.
10:00
Speaker 8: It's always a boy growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
10:03
Speaker 8: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in alle
10:05
Speaker 8: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
10:08
Speaker 8: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build
10:11
Speaker 8: nests or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for
10:14
Speaker 8: their young, or penguins who travel up to five hundred
10:17
Speaker 8: miles to secure food for their families, or bush babies
10:20
Speaker 8: whose impressive jump allows them to navigate the trees and
10:22
Speaker 8: the wild in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic
10:25
Speaker 8: is shared by our best friends, the canines. We know
10:28
Speaker 8: dogs are wonderful pets at home, but because of their
10:31
Speaker 8: acute senses, they also perform life saving work every day.
10:35
Speaker 8: Dogs keep us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans,
10:37
Speaker 8: some of whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics,
10:40
Speaker 8: alerting them when there's a change in their blood chemistry.
10:43
Speaker 8: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
10:45
Speaker 8: contribute to society and help those in need. So please
10:48
Speaker 8: join me an American Humane and supporting our heroic working
10:51
Speaker 8: dogs and all the amazing animals on this planet we
10:54
Speaker 8: inhabit together. Go to American Humane dot org to learn more.
11:00
Speaker 9: Oh brah, that's buzzed.
11:01
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
11:05
Speaker 10: And now a speech.
11:07
Speaker 9: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
11:10
Speaker 9: art and brain.
11:12
Speaker 3: Who's with me?
11:13
Speaker 10: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed.
11:15
Speaker 9: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
11:18
Speaker 9: somebody call me a ride.
11:19
Speaker 11: Love that guy, me too.
11:21
Speaker 12: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
11:24
Speaker 12: it's time to go home.
11:25
Speaker 13: Buzz driving is drunk driving. Whom Did you know.
11:29
Speaker 14: That more than half our household energy costs go to
11:32
Speaker 14: heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just good for the environment,
11:37
Speaker 14: It means lower utility bills too. One way to reduce
11:41
Speaker 14: your energy waste is a home energy assessment. Your utility
11:44
Speaker 14: company can help, or you can learn how to do
11:47
Speaker 14: it yourself at energysavers dot gov. That's energysavers dot gov.
11:52
Speaker 14: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
11:55
Speaker 14: check ducks for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
11:59
Speaker 14: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
12:01
Speaker 14: new appliance. Look for the energy star logo and read
12:04
Speaker 14: the energy guide label. And there are day to day
12:07
Speaker 14: things you can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and
12:11
Speaker 14: raise it in the summer, close fireplay stampers when they're
12:14
Speaker 14: not in use, and keep air filters clean. For more

Speaker 15: As a family member or friend, you may be the
12:32
Speaker 15: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
12:35
Speaker 15: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

Speaker 16: In the sunsplity.
13:11
Speaker 1: Abste quickly on a need to know basis, because you
13:15
Speaker 1: need to know. The first thing today.
13:20
Speaker 4: Is just what the doctor rotter great text message comes
13:24
Speaker 4: into four three four eight eight two four two one
13:28
Speaker 4: seven this morning. On the subject of comedy, John Myers
13:33
Speaker 4: writes in maybe not a one to one comparison, but
13:37
Speaker 4: comedy is much like a sermon. You start squirming in
13:40
Speaker 4: your seat when it hits close to home, and it's
13:45
Speaker 4: a mirror. It is supposed to be a mirror on
13:49
Speaker 4: the things that you know.
13:51
Speaker 3: Maybe we need to do better and well done.
13:57
Speaker 4: Satire sends up the powerful people, and you get less
14:05
Speaker 4: satire when there's fewer important people. I remember Jeff Foxworthy
14:16
Speaker 4: ones talking about how redneck was not a Southern thing,
14:20
Speaker 4: it was anywhere. And I looked around and I was
14:23
Speaker 4: living in Queens, New York, and I said, you know what,
14:26
Speaker 4: we got rednecks here. I remember the first time my
14:29
Speaker 4: wife saw Jeff fox Or and he said, if you
14:32
Speaker 4: if you're working TV, is sitting on top of your
14:36
Speaker 4: non working TV, you might be a redneck. We were
14:40
Speaker 4: watching that on her father's working TV in Greenlawn, New York,
14:46
Speaker 4: in Suffolk County, New York, that was sitting on top
14:50
Speaker 4: of his non working TV. And he's Scottish. So I mean,
14:55
Speaker 4: you know, these are the things we do that you know,
14:57
Speaker 4: sometimes you don't even realize you're doing them. But in
15:01
Speaker 4: the wokeness of our world, in the world where victim shaming.
15:10
Speaker 3: Is something.
15:11
Speaker 4: I got a text message about obesity, believe it or not,
15:17
Speaker 4: just after our segment about acid reflux and esophageal cancer,
15:24
Speaker 4: that we shouldn't be making light of obesity. I don't
15:27
Speaker 4: think we were making light of it. I think we
15:28
Speaker 4: were saying it is something to avoid. The response to
15:34
Speaker 4: that email was, it's not always something you can avoid.
15:40
Speaker 4: And that's the problem is we have decided that all
15:44
Speaker 4: of these things are for either someone else to fix
15:49
Speaker 4: or they're unfixable.
15:51
Speaker 3: And they're not.
15:54
Speaker 4: We've seated our power over our own world, and that's
15:58
Speaker 4: a bigger problem, don't you think. I mean, if I
16:02
Speaker 4: don't have the ability to change. But then to say, well,
16:10
Speaker 4: we should go after Jimmy Kimmel for making, you know,
16:13
Speaker 4: not funny jokes. I will point out again that the
16:17
Speaker 4: King of England delivered more actual comedy in his speech
16:21
Speaker 4: in front of Donald Trump than Jimmy Kimmel did. But
16:27
Speaker 4: it's it's always been what Jimmy does. Jimmy says the
16:31
Speaker 4: shocking thing, and there are some points where that's efficacious.
16:40
Speaker 4: There are other points where it's just deficacious. I'm sorry
16:45
Speaker 4: that one just hit me. That was inspiration, but just
16:50
Speaker 4: saying something to make everyone go, it's a it's a
16:53
Speaker 4: little bit of the Emperor's not wearing any clothes. But
17:01
Speaker 4: when your monologue opens up with a treatise, and we're
17:05
Speaker 4: not going to play it again, but we played it
17:08
Speaker 4: plenty yesterday in a treatise of everything that had manifested
17:13
Speaker 4: itself in this assailant's mind, who's the assailants letter to
17:19
Speaker 4: his family? I can no longer permit my hands to
17:24
Speaker 4: be soiled. Something along these lines, with this president, with
17:28
Speaker 4: this country going this way, being led by a rapist pedophile,
17:34
Speaker 4: none of which is an adjudicated thing. If I went
17:36
Speaker 4: out and said you are a rapist pedophile and did
17:41
Speaker 4: it publicly and attached your name to it, you can
17:43
Speaker 4: suit my ass.
17:45
Speaker 3: I have no proof.
17:48
Speaker 4: And then even in the face of proof saying he isn't,
17:53
Speaker 4: the jokes continue because it's about making people not want
17:57
Speaker 4: to vote for Donald Trump. But beyond those people, you
18:02
Speaker 4: have folks who already have a tenuous grip on their
18:06
Speaker 4: last good marble. Perhaps it's being thirty one years old
18:10
Speaker 4: and living in mom's basement. Perhaps it's realizing that you know,
18:17
Speaker 4: all the degrees that you got have amounted to.
18:19
Speaker 3: A tutor's a career as a tutor, and.
18:24
Speaker 4: That maybe best Buy is your best income generating opportunity
18:30
Speaker 4: because you haven't.
18:31
Speaker 3: Embraced your inner tendness yet.
18:33
Speaker 4: This kid never found out what he was really gifted
18:35
Speaker 4: to do, and so he just thought, you know, Cheetos
18:40
Speaker 4: and mountain dew and mom's basement, playing Call of Duty
18:45
Speaker 4: or whatever it was he played online, was, you know Skyrim,
18:55
Speaker 4: whatever I don't know all the games. I just know
18:58
Speaker 4: you know some of them, just enough to congressant where
19:01
Speaker 4: somebody doesn't think I'm a complete dube. So he had
19:09
Speaker 4: this pain, this suffering, already driving his marbles to a
19:16
Speaker 4: very tenuous spot in his grip, and then they all
19:19
Speaker 4: fell out. One last time he heard Rachel Maddow call
19:22
Speaker 4: Donald Trump a pedophile rapist, or he'd heard Jimmy Kimmel
19:26
Speaker 4: call him that on his late night show, or he
19:29
Speaker 4: heard the women on the View cackle on about it,
19:32
Speaker 4: and he's like, I can't take this anymore. I can't
19:34
Speaker 4: have my country run by a person like this. That's
19:37
Speaker 4: what his letter said, I cannot allow. He was in
19:42
Speaker 4: he was internalizing all these things that people are saying,
19:46
Speaker 4: and they're just saying it like, oh, this is great
19:49
Speaker 4: because it'll make one or two percent of the population
19:52
Speaker 4: not vote for Donald Trump. Well it actually made somebody
19:55
Speaker 4: try to commit murder. This is why all these things
20:02
Speaker 4: have to be careful. If you've ever seen the Broadway
20:04
Speaker 4: play or the movie version, I mean, it's Oliver Stone,
20:08
Speaker 4: so you take it with the grains of salt that
20:11
Speaker 4: are necessary. But the movie is a reasonable depiction of
20:21
Speaker 4: the Broadway play Tony Award winning Broadway play not a
20:24
Speaker 4: musical Talk Radio. Eric Bagosian basically plays Howard Stern Jimmy Kimmel.
20:38
Speaker 4: You know, a shocked jock who shocked the wrong person,
20:40
Speaker 4: who winds up shooting him at the end. I'm sorry
20:44
Speaker 4: it spoilers. I should have afford you that, but you
20:48
Speaker 4: kind of get a feeling through the whole play.
20:50
Speaker 3: This is where this is headed.
20:56
Speaker 4: Because insult isn't comedy. Inst out can play a role
21:01
Speaker 4: in comedy. And I'm not claiming to be John Cleeese
21:08
Speaker 4: or Eric Idol or George Carlin, but all you rely
21:16
Speaker 4: on is insult for comedy or for shock value. Then
21:21
Speaker 4: you're going to wind up knocking the wrong marble out
21:24
Speaker 4: of the right hand. And as it happens in the
21:29
Speaker 4: play slash movie talk Radio, it befalls the talk show
21:36
Speaker 4: host who winds up finally getting silenced in the end.
21:41
Speaker 4: But sometimes there are unintended consequences your insults to the president.
21:46
Speaker 4: Eventually somebody believes you, even if you think this is
21:49
Speaker 4: just fun in games to win an election. And there
21:55
Speaker 4: are plenty of people who will lump me into crowds
21:57
Speaker 4: of people that say the same thing about Ron Obama
22:00
Speaker 4: but not.
22:01
Speaker 16: Let's see if something costs less but people are happier
22:05
Speaker 16: with it, that sounds like something to look into, and
22:07

24:12
Speaker 2: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
24:18

24:31
Speaker 2: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
24:36
Speaker 2: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
24:42
Speaker 2: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
24:45
Speaker 2: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

28:33
Speaker 3: Oh, yes we do if you understand it. I mean,
28:36
Speaker 3: this is the thing.
28:38
Speaker 4: If you think American campfire is just getting rich or
28:42
Speaker 4: the American dream is just getting rich, you don't get it.
28:48
Speaker 4: And that's on our educational system. Our educational system doesn't
28:53
Speaker 4: do its job. It doesn't say what the American dream is.
28:56
Speaker 4: It's embarrassing to me in a lot of ways when
28:59
Speaker 4: I talk to people and I'm like, I was discussing philosophy,
29:03
Speaker 4: like what the American dream actually is, and.
29:07
Speaker 3: People say, where where did you go to school? Bayside
29:12
Speaker 3: High School in New York City? Is that a private school?
29:17
Speaker 4: No, it's a public high school that was built in
29:21
Speaker 4: nineteen thirty three. By the way, I was there when
29:27
Speaker 4: the city was bankrupt and we were in a classroom
29:29
Speaker 4: with forty people and we still they still put the
29:33
Speaker 4: education out there. So don't claim, oh, it's too hard.
29:38
Speaker 4: But beyond that, there's the point and I want to
29:41
Speaker 4: get back to is it ran collapsing? Because there were
29:45
Speaker 4: things in President Trump's early morning tweet that I think,
29:48
Speaker 4: you know, are important to know because everyone's ah it's
29:51
Speaker 4: just another one at Trump's midnight tweets. How many of
29:56
Speaker 4: them have actually borne fruit?
29:57
Speaker 3: Huh.
29:59
Speaker 4: But the second part of the whole Jimmy Kimmel thing
30:04
Speaker 4: is now David Carr at the FCC, as I warned yesterday,
30:08
Speaker 4: has decided to call all of the ABC network owned
30:12
Speaker 4: and operated television broadcast stations to file reports within thirty
30:17
Speaker 4: days to his office. And there's several reasons why this
30:23
Speaker 4: is wrong. I mean, number one, first and foremost, what
30:29
Speaker 4: Jimmy Kimmel said wasn't on broadcast television. He was given
30:33
Speaker 4: a speech somewhere. Are we going to start doing this?
30:40
Speaker 4: Are we going to start saying, Hey, I saw Joe
30:43
Speaker 4: Thomas at a tea party rally and he said this,
30:48
Speaker 4: So everyone should stop listening to his radio or the FCC. Moreover,
30:53
Speaker 4: the FCC should investigate Joe Thomas for something we saw
30:57
Speaker 4: him say that wasn't broadcast over his affiliates.
31:02
Speaker 3: Huh. I don't like the world where it is.
31:05
Speaker 4: I understand the feeling of saying Jimmy Kimmel is part
31:09
Speaker 4: of the problem. It's obviously he played a role. His
31:12
Speaker 4: rhetoric is just a master's class. And how the guy
31:16
Speaker 4: became unhinged. But it I don't believe it's an FCC issue.
31:20
Speaker 3: I mean, do you.
31:22
Speaker 19: And then and then the media is trying to bring
31:24
Speaker 19: up exterior interior issues too. They go, well, the the
31:28
Speaker 19: new president of ABC, we're not sure if he's really
31:34
Speaker 19: in control of this situation.
31:37
Speaker 3: It wasn't on ABC. This this, this wasn't even on ABC.
31:41
Speaker 12: He was a no no.
31:44
Speaker 19: I understand, I totally understand. But there the media is
31:48
Speaker 19: trying to like put all these guardrails up that aren't
31:50
Speaker 19: even guardrails, and they're at.
31:53
Speaker 20: The biggest yeah, and the and the biggest that's what
31:56
Speaker 20: I'm saying, all these distractions and and and they're just
31:59
Speaker 20: trying to make it look like it's actually ABC. But
32:03
Speaker 20: there's affiliate stations and and and I think President Trump
32:08
Speaker 20: thinks he can go in and you know, lower the
32:11
Speaker 20: bar on all these other places and make make it
32:14
Speaker 20: hurt indirectly so that they have to do something at
32:17
Speaker 20: one of these affiliates.
32:18
Speaker 3: Well, and that's the thing.
32:20
Speaker 4: I said this yesterday, and there was Brendan Carr before
32:24
Speaker 4: the afternoon was over asking all ABC owned and operated
32:28
Speaker 4: stations to refile.
32:30
Speaker 3: With the FCC.
32:32
Speaker 4: And it's I'm sorry, it's just not necessary. First off,
32:37
Speaker 4: it didn't happen on an ABC station, so you're just
32:41
Speaker 4: targeting an employer of someone, a contractor, really, because Jimmy
32:46
Speaker 4: Kimmel produces the show himself, uh, you know, and then
32:51
Speaker 4: sells it basically to the network. That's how most of
32:55
Speaker 4: these shows are. They're produced by someone and then they
32:59
Speaker 4: sell the the broadcast rights to the network. And that's
33:04
Speaker 4: why everyone's talking about Byron Allen, you know, selling his
33:07
Speaker 4: show to CBS for Colbert. You know, John Stewart produced
33:11
Speaker 4: Colbert's show after it took over from Letterman. It's it's
33:16
Speaker 4: a wholly different show. It's got the same name. But
33:18
Speaker 4: what they did is they picked up the production rights
33:22
Speaker 4: to it. So John Stuart and Stephen Colbert were actually
33:25
Speaker 4: the producers of that show, and they charged CBS for
33:30
Speaker 4: the rights to it, and then CBS tried to make
33:32
Speaker 4: back the money by selling the sponsorships to it. It's
33:37
Speaker 4: and that's not wrong. That's basically how all these programs
33:40
Speaker 4: wind up on TV. Johnny Carson produced Letterman, and then
33:44
Speaker 4: Letterman produced what's his name? Conan and that kind of thing,
33:50
Speaker 4: and it all, you know, that's how it works. So
33:53
Speaker 4: going after ABC, it's it's a headline grab. I don't
33:58
Speaker 4: even know if it was or from the White House.
34:01
Speaker 4: This is the stuff that I really worry that since
34:04
Speaker 4: her chemotherapy started Susie Wiles. You know, a lot of
34:07
Speaker 4: this knuckleheaded stuff started happening when Susie Wiles needed to
34:12
Speaker 4: take some time away from from the chief of staff desk.
34:16
Speaker 4: And you know, these guys are scuttling around, they've made
34:18
Speaker 4: it into the pantry, and you know they we need
34:22
Speaker 4: to kind of rein this in because it's giving Trump's
34:26
Speaker 4: opponents like Hakeem Jeffries too much ammunition.
34:30
Speaker 20: You know what I mean, right, yeah, And it's almost
34:34
Speaker 20: like doing the poolfest when you're checking the wal matter
34:37
Speaker 20: for pH. You know, pH means how many cat ions
34:40
Speaker 20: of hydrogen in there in there. If there's more hydrogen than,
34:44
Speaker 20: it's a cidy. If there's equal balance and it's seven,
34:47
Speaker 20: then you're an equilibrium. If if there's less than, you're alkaline.
34:50
Speaker 20: And then they're trying to get to some balance. But
34:53
Speaker 20: you're never going to really get a balance.
34:55
Speaker 19: On free speech because because the only thing that's going
34:58
Speaker 19: to come to if it's violence or something like that.
35:01
Speaker 19: But I don't think he should be silenced or fired.
35:05
Speaker 20: I think they should just make him an example of
35:08
Speaker 20: being a little bit more respectful, because, like you said,
35:11
Speaker 20: people aren't going to listen to.
35:12
Speaker 4: Him anyway, right, Just ignore them, ignore them. It's the
35:15
Speaker 4: worst thing to happen to people like me is when
35:17
Speaker 4: the crickets start being heard.
35:19
Speaker 3: And that's what you need.
35:22
Speaker 4: Well, anyway, you enjoy, try to feel better, you know.
35:25
Speaker 4: Find here's the hippie dippy conservo hip idea. Find local honey.
35:35
Speaker 4: Find honey made from honeybees near where you're living, and
35:40
Speaker 4: you drink that tea with that drink tea with that honey,
35:44
Speaker 4: and you will develop the immunity to your local allergens.
35:49
Speaker 6: Thank you.
35:50
Speaker 19: You know what the big problem is here killer bees
35:52
Speaker 19: are taking over all the native hives here.
35:55
Speaker 3: I just found that out.
35:57
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they're invasive. Hopefully you can find some there.
36:01
Speaker 4: And but I appreciate Joe. Feel better.
36:03
Speaker 3: My friend will talk to you soon. Thank you. Thanks
36:06
Speaker 3: j job blessed.
36:08
Speaker 4: Sometimes in my mind John Belushi running around with Bill
36:12
Speaker 4: Murray and be costumes, I just those thinking bad just
36:19
Speaker 4: four three four eight eight two four two one seven,
36:22
Speaker 4: and I get the inclination to want to punish because
36:31
Speaker 4: of to me more than the Milania expecting widow stuff.
36:36
Speaker 4: Uh this ongoing Hey, good job you got to ride
36:40
Speaker 4: Jeffrey Epstein's planes seven times, you know, because.
36:44
Speaker 3: You're a pedophile.
36:45
Speaker 4: And and that's the stuff that made this guy crazy.
36:49
Speaker 4: And that's lost in all this is that this guy
36:54
Speaker 4: had listened to one too many segments of the View,
36:58
Speaker 4: one too many rach Madout commentaries, a little too much
37:02
Speaker 4: Chris Hayes, a little too much Chris Matthews when they
37:07
Speaker 4: wheel him out of the home. And so when you
37:13
Speaker 4: say how did he become radicalized, it really listened to
37:18
Speaker 4: the opening of Jimmy Kimmel's monologue from the Very White
37:22
Speaker 4: House Correspondence Dinner. That this guy charged. That's how he
37:26
Speaker 4: gets it. Regardless of whether or not the story was
37:30
Speaker 4: true or not. We've decided that it was said and
37:33
Speaker 4: it's funny, so we're not going to let go of it.
37:40
Speaker 3: But that's that's not something that you know, the FCC.
37:48
Speaker 4: Can look at on the basis of just something he
37:51
Speaker 4: had said at the Correspondence dinner. You want to go
37:53
Speaker 4: after him for stuff he says every night on his
37:56
Speaker 4: TV program, People do that, these companies, these TV shows,
37:59

Speaker 9: recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,
38:25

38:32
Speaker 9: its risk factors. Efforts led by the American Heart Association
38:35
Speaker 9: have reduced deaths from heart disease by half over the

44:24
Speaker 3: All right?
44:24

44:51
Speaker 4: We tweet and poop and scoot and all the different
44:54
Speaker 4: things that you're supposed to do with these things. I mean,
44:56
Speaker 4: we facebook, you know, announce it and all. But yesterday
45:00
Speaker 4: we were telling you about Mission creep. So mission creeps
45:07
Speaker 4: as it manifests locally like for this Jacksonville situation became
45:12
Speaker 4: apparent when publics wanted to renovate their store, didn't want
45:15
Speaker 4: to build a new one, didn't want to expand into
45:18
Speaker 4: a bigger footprint, didn't want to do anything like they
45:20
Speaker 4: wanted to tear up the floor tiles. Always see grocery
45:24
Speaker 4: stores do this all the time. But so bad is
45:26
Speaker 4: the permit culture in Florida that they needed to get
45:30
Speaker 4: permission from the city to renovate the inside of their store.
45:36
Speaker 4: The nattering nabobs of view shed protection and all this nonsense.
45:42
Speaker 4: Our flagship city of Charlottesville neighbors all rallied together to
45:47
Speaker 4: stop somebody from fixing their garage that they had paid
45:51
Speaker 4: a fortune for because it was in downtown Charlottesville and
45:56
Speaker 4: expanding it so that he and his wife could both
45:58
Speaker 4: put cars in there.
46:00
Speaker 3: Oh, it's still big, and you can see it from.
46:02
Speaker 4: My house, and that's one of the worst ones. You
46:05
Speaker 4: can see it from my house. Therefore I have a
46:09
Speaker 4: say in it. Oh, it is one of the most
46:11
Speaker 4: corrupting things in America right now. And we have municipal
46:16
Speaker 4: view sheds where if you're in a historical district and
46:21
Speaker 4: somebody can see your business from this historical district, that
46:26
Speaker 4: you have special regulations on what windows you can use,
46:30
Speaker 4: what style font you can put on the windows, in
46:34
Speaker 4: terms of announcements, if you can even make announcements at
46:38
Speaker 4: all on your windows, so crippling to the economy.
46:43
Speaker 3: Mission Creep.
46:44
Speaker 4: I've always said, if I had, Oh we have AI now,
46:49
Speaker 4: maybe I can write that comic strip. I always said
46:52
Speaker 4: that if Uncle Sam was a superhero, arch Nemesis would
47:02
Speaker 4: be it would be two people. It would be sort
47:05
Speaker 4: of Mission Creep playing the Baine character, this big burly bruiser,
47:10
Speaker 4: not necessarily very smart, but doing the business of the technocrat.
47:19
Speaker 4: The technocrat would.
47:21
Speaker 3: Be this well dressed, officious, tight ass.
47:26
Speaker 4: Kind of lex Luthor meets you know, I don't know,
47:32
Speaker 4: pick pick some uptight sticky beak, and he would tell
47:43
Speaker 4: Mission Creep what to go do. But Mission Creep would
47:47
Speaker 4: be like the Big Battle Royal, you know with the
47:50
Speaker 4: superhero Uncle Sam. Because Mission Creep is because we say, well,
47:56
Speaker 4: we want our downtown area to look a certain way. Well,
48:00
Speaker 4: then you've created that. You've opened the door for Mission
48:02
Speaker 4: Creep to come in. Mission Creep comes in and all
48:07
Speaker 4: of a sudden, you can't have what you want in
48:09
Speaker 4: your store. But I wanted you to fix what was
48:11
Speaker 4: going on across the street.
48:13
Speaker 3: Don't tell me. And the FCC is just as guilty
48:20
Speaker 3: of that.
48:21
Speaker 4: So when we started broadcasting, the government didn't build the
48:25
Speaker 4: towers we broadcasted from, nor do they now. The government
48:32
Speaker 4: doesn't make the transmitters that we use to broadcast our transmissions.
48:37
Speaker 3: Never have the government.
48:41
Speaker 4: The authority over broadcasting was set up mostly by two
48:46
Speaker 4: or three big networks to protect their big stations in
48:51
Speaker 4: Chicago and New York. Those the phrase clear channel means
48:57
Speaker 4: something like, if you're on six sixty AM in New York,
49:00
Speaker 4: there isn't a station until you get to the Mississippi
49:03
Speaker 4: River on six sixty am, your clear channel. There's nobody
49:09
Speaker 4: going to interfere with you. So that was to make
49:15
Speaker 4: sure that nobody was interfering with these big important cities
49:19
Speaker 4: telling us big important things like you know, the War
49:22
Speaker 4: of the World's broadcast so that a single transmitter in
49:27
Speaker 4: Cincinnati can be heard in Rhode Island, but nobody else
49:31
Speaker 4: would go on there. But they were basically protecting the
49:34
Speaker 4: deed to your property. We have paid the money to
49:38
Speaker 4: have this much. You know, We've got a massive transmitter.
49:41
Speaker 4: It puts out one hundred thousand watts. We have a
49:44
Speaker 4: tower that's really tall, and that's not easy nor inexpensive
49:49
Speaker 4: to build. Trust me, I'm living this. And so to
49:54
Speaker 4: protect that lease, that deed, we developed the National Broadcasting
50:01
Speaker 4: Division of the Federal government. It is now called the FCC.
50:06
Speaker 3: And all you are, you're supposed to.
50:08
Speaker 4: Be, Brendan. I know you listen, Brendan. All your agency
50:13
Speaker 4: is supposed to do is take my bill of sale,
50:17
Speaker 4: my deed that says I own this property, the signals
50:22
Speaker 4: associated with twelve forty one oh one point one and
50:26
Speaker 4: ninety eight nine FM and Stanton, Harrisonburg and Waynesboro, and
50:30
Speaker 4: make sure nobody else puts a transmitter on within the
50:34
Speaker 4: sound of my voice.
50:35
Speaker 3: That's it.
50:36
Speaker 4: You're supposed to protect my property rights, my property in
50:39
Speaker 4: this case being the eminent as ERP, the effective radiant
50:45
Speaker 4: power footprint of my transmitters.
50:48
Speaker 3: That's it. You don't get to tell me what I
50:51
Speaker 3: do or don't do with it, the employee of this
50:55
Speaker 3: but the mission creep. Oh, I don't like what.
50:58
Speaker 4: I don't like that Elvis Presley, he swings his hips around,
51:02
Speaker 4: and I don't think my daughter should see it. Okay,
51:05
Speaker 4: don't let her see it. But no, then the FCC
51:10
Speaker 4: starts coming in and saying community standards and can't say
51:14
Speaker 4: the seven words that George Carlin detailed for us, nor
51:18
Speaker 4: do I want to hear them. But if somebody said
51:19
Speaker 4: them on the radio and say, I don't want to
51:21
Speaker 4: listen to that anymore, and I would stop listening to it.
51:27
Speaker 4: Mission creep. It's how the Great Society has become this
51:33
Speaker 4: Marxist overlay on our two hundred and fifty year beauty.
51:48
Speaker 4: So they've turned to Brendan Carr and the FCC to
51:56
Speaker 4: do something about Jimmy Kimmel.
51:58
Speaker 3: It's just.
52:00
Speaker 4: Into the Marxists hands. Let's let's not hand them the
52:07
Speaker 4: victory that we deserve because we outnumber them three to one.
52:12
Speaker 4: Come on, we can be better than that. We've broken
52:15
Speaker 4: free with things like the Internet, and now we want
52:18
Speaker 4: the FCC to run the internet too.
52:20
Speaker 3: How's it sure?
52:22
Speaker 4: We have lots of prosperous people and the big corporations
52:25
Speaker 4: are struggling, and little guys like me are able to
52:29
Speaker 4: buy radio stations at pennies on the dollar. But I'm
52:32
Speaker 4: waiting for some mid size radio broadcaster like Spirit Airlines
52:38
Speaker 4: to go to the government and say we're failing. Can
52:40
Speaker 4: you bail us out? All of that more waiting for
52:46
Speaker 4: you tomorrow at five Eastern. Until then, I'm Joe, so
52:49
Speaker 4: long and thanks for all the fish.
52:51
Speaker 9: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
52:53
Speaker 9: compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
52:57
Speaker 9: California based chiropractor with more than three years of experience,
53:01
Speaker 9: this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
53:05
Speaker 9: or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
53:09
Speaker 9: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
53:12
Speaker 9: the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions the
53:16
Speaker 9: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back device
53:20
Speaker 9: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
53:24
Speaker 9: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
53:27
Speaker 9: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
53:30
Speaker 9: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
53:33
Speaker 9: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
53:36
Speaker 9: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your
53:38
Speaker 9: home and Doctor Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful
53:41
Speaker 9: videos and detailed instructions. For more information, visit Fishertraction dot
