  Speaker 1: From Memphis, Tennessee, on the banks of the mighty Mississippi,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: it's America's conservative blowtorch.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: That's us, that's.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Right, our love is American.

• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Hello, everybody.
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: Great to be back with you. And I am now
• 0:41
  Speaker 5: with you for the duration. We have one more big
• 0:45
  Speaker 5: trip planned before the election, but we'll be doing the
• 0:48
  Speaker 5: show live on the road. That's coming up next week.
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: next week in Gainesville, Georgia, as we get ready for
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: a huge book event. We'll be telling you more about that.
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: Before we jump into everything, I just have to give
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: a huge shout out to all of our great Houston listeners.
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: You guys just did a tremendous job. It was great
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: seeing so many of our great listeners there in Houston.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: Thanks to our friends at Patriot Talk 920. We had
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: a big book signing. It was a part of their
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: Second Amendment happy hour. They do that every Tuesday, or
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: I don't know, is it every Tuesday? It ought to
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: be every Tuesday, at Collectors Firearms in Houston. And Dylan,
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: let me just say this. They say it's like the
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: world's best darn gun store. And I think it may
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: be the world's largest. I have never seen it. It's
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: almost 100,000 square feet of all guns.
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: And you know how it is when you go into
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: a gun store. They're kind of like, you know, a
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: little on the scary side, right? You got the concrete floors,
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: the white walls, and I don't know. There's just not
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: a lot of ambience there.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Not a fun decorated store.
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: No, not really.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Well, you know.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: When you walk into this place, it used to be
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: a Barnes & Noble.
• 2:06
  Speaker 7: Oh.
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: And you walk in and it's open concept. So you
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: can walk up and, I mean, there are just guns galore. Giant.
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: There's on one end, it's just huge. Very open and
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: airy and inviting. One end has a giant American flag.
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: On the other, the giant Texas flag. And that's where
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: they had the gathering. We just had a wonderful time.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: And people came out. They bought the book. I think
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: maybe people bought guns. I was looking at one of
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: the guns. It was a pistol, $ 35, 000.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Was it like gold-plated?
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: Collectors. I mean, they have all sorts of collectors' items there.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: That's cool.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: Including going old school back to when we used to
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: wear armor, like the British.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like the pellets.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: You stick the stick in the thing and then, yeah. Muskets.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm thinking of. Your muskets.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: They have everything there.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Todd, I saw you in front of a tank. Was
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: that a tank?
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: It looked big.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: And I think it was parked in the handicap zone,
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: but who's going to complain?
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Tell that guy to move.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: But it was a lot of fun. Gun Owners of America,
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: they were a big part of it. NRA brought their buzzer.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: And then we had Patriot Talk 920. We actually did
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: a live broadcast here for a full hour. So they
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: put me to work is all there is to it.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: And we had so much fun. I want to say
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: thank you to Matt Velasquez, the owner of Patriot Talk,
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: our friends at Gun Owners of America, and a lot
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: of other great American patriots. There are also a lot
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: of politicians there. And I just want to say something
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: right out of the gate. There's no way Texas selects
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: James Talofrico. There's just no way. Harris County and Houston,
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: you guys have been having historic voting numbers, early voting numbers,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: and it's the same we're hearing. It's the same in Georgia.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: It's the same in Tennessee. Everywhere people are now early voting,
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: we are looking at massive turnout of people. Now, the
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: problem is you don't know which side people are voting for.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: But I'm just– there is no way after spending 48
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: hours in the great state of Texas– There's no way
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: the red-blooded American patriots who are Texans are going to
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: vote for Talafrico. I just do not see that. But
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: there is a lot of angst because of John Cornyn
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: and Karl Rove and the Bush family, and they have
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: all decided to conspire against Ken Paxton. And say what
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: you want to about Ken Paxton, but he was a
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: brilliant attorney general. I think he'd make a great governor.
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: Is he the best candidate? Absolutely not. You know, the
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: guy wears, you know, and you've heard President Trump talk
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: about this. The guy wears the frumpled suit. His hair
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: is askew. And he's not a good speaker out on
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: the stump. He's probably the worst candidate, but he's the
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: best man for the job. And people ask me, they go, well,
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: and I was just talking to regular Texans. And we
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: went down to a great taco place, and the family-owned
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: taco joint, and they're big fans of the show. And
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: I have no idea what I ate, but it was good,
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: and it was authentically Mexican. And we were having conversations
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: about politics. And to a person, and this is a
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: great way to frame this, because people say, well, what
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: about all the scandals? What about the impeachment? What about
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: the allegations? Well, that's all they were. That's all they
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: were were allegations. And let me just say this. I'm
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: not sure Ken Paxton is the criminal mastermind that you think,
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: at least the Democrats think he is. I'm not sure
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: he has the bandwidth. to put together some sort of
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: a criminal scheme. Now, I may be wrong. I may
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: be wrong, but I don't think I am. So anyway,
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: don't believe any of the polling data out there. You
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: go and you vote. And this is why, you know,
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: somebody asked me, they go, Todd, we listen to you
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: every day. They came up from Texas City. to the event,
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: and they said, we listen to you all the time.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Are you really that hopeful? I am that hopeful. I
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: am hopeful we're going to win because if you, you ultimately,
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: you control your own destiny here. So if you Republicans
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: get out and vote, we're going to win. Hands down,
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: we're going to win, and we're going to win big.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: Have no doubt about it. If these numbers are reflective
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: of Republicans getting out to vote, we're going to do
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: just fine on Election Day. Might even pick up a
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: few extra seats. But if you guys decide to stay home, well,
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: we're going to lose. And I'll have some things to
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: say about that after the election. But right now, I
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: know there are a lot of people saying, oh, we're
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: heading off to the gulags. We're doom and gloom, gloom, despair,
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: agony on me.
• 7:10
  Speaker 9: Whoa!
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: That's what they used to sing on E.H.A.W. Dylan, find
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: that for us. The name of the song is Gloom, Despair,
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: and Agony on Me. And that's how a lot of people,
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: that's how a lot of folks on our side of
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: the aisle are right now. I mean, every single day
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: you listen to conservative talk radio and people are ready
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: to go jump off a cliff. Well, we're not there yet,
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: ladies and gentlemen. I don't think we're ever going to
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: be there because ultimately we get to control our future
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: and our destiny here. I mean, it really is that simple.
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: So the question is, are you willing to put aside
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: all of your issues that you have with the Republicans
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: and just get out there and vote to stop the communists?
• 7:56
  Speaker 10: That's all.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: I'm not asking you to affirm the Republican Party. I'm
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: asking you to get out there and to stop the
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: communist insurgency. That's all I'm asking. And I do think
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: that we ought to be positive. There's enough stuff going
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: on right now in your life. You don't need to
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: tune into the radio for three hours a day and hear,
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: you know, Todd Starnes being all doom and gloomy. That's
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: just not who we are. But I am going to
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: have something to say about the Republicans. And a lot
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: of people, that Starnes, he's just putting his head in
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: the sand, he is. No, that's not it at all.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: I understand the lay of the land probably more so
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: than anybody. And if those of you that have been
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: involved in local politics, you know how bad it can be.
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: I mean, there's just some mean people in politics. But no,
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: I'm very clear-eyed about what's going on here, ladies and gentlemen.
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: And the reality is, if you think gas prices are
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: high now, you wait until the Democrats get in charge.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: You see what happens then. We may not even have
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: cars to drive around with. Remember, these are the people
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: that want to literally ban automobiles. I mean, these are
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: some whacked out people we're talking about. So I'm in
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: Houston and we're doing the big event and talking to
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: a lot of people and And there are just a
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: lot of folks who are nervous about this. And that's okay.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: That's the point of this radio program is for you
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: to call in and to work out your angst on air.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: That's what we're happy to do that. We're happy to
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: provide that for you as a free service, save you
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: a few dollars on therapy. So again, I just, I
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: find it hard to believe that that Talafrico is going
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: to be able to pull off an upset victory in
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: Texas because But again, if you're looking at all of
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: the states, I see that as possibly the one more
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: likely for something like that to happen. And the only
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: reason why is because you've got the establishment Republican working
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: against a Republican nominee. And ladies and gentlemen, hear me
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: on this. They ought to throw every single one of
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: them out of the Republican Party. What a shameful thing.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: A shameful thing. 901-260-5926 is our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: Got this whole story about Ilhan Omar and her brother. Man,
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: this story is just insane. I have a question now.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: So we're going to play some audio. This is Ilhan Omar.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: She was on PMS Now with, was it Chris Hayes
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: or Rachel Maddow? One of them wears glasses and the other,
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: they look like the Bobsy Twins. So I think this
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: is Chris Hayes who is asking the question of Ilhan
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: Omar over on PMS Now whether or not she was
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: married to her brother. Take a listen to Cut 9.
• 10:56
  Speaker 10: Who was this man that was your husband?
• 10:58
  Speaker 11: When did they start saying that he was your brother?
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 11:01
  Speaker 8: It started with the Somali blog that I don't know
• 11:07
  Speaker 8: if it still exists, but somebody put in there that,
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: you know, that he had to have been my brother or.
• 11:13
  Speaker 12: Something to that effect. And So right wing conspiracy theorists
• 11:19
  Speaker 12: in Minneapolis got a hold of it and they just
• 11:21
  Speaker 12: kind of went and like found random people who are like,
• 11:24
  Speaker 12: she introduced us.
• 11:26
  Speaker 8: You know, she introduced him to us and said he
• 11:29
  Speaker 8: was her brother, which is, you know, insane. I mean,
• 11:34
  Speaker 8: I don't I don't know those people that they talk about.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: He was not you were not related to him at all.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Not to.
• 11:43
  Speaker 8: My knowledge.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: That was the big gotcha, right, in terms of what
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: you're talking about promising.
• 11:47
  Speaker 8: Like, we're going to nail.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: Her on the marriage.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: All right, so there you have it, ladies and gentlemen.
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: She says that to her knowledge, she is not married
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: to her brother. Now, first of all, this was a
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: great example of journalistic malpractice, because at that point, the
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: reporter should have offered up some sort of a follow-up.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: What do you mean not to your knowledge? Because it
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: seems to me this is a pretty simple thing. All
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: you have to do is go back into the family
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: albums and go back to when you were, I don't know,
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: five or six years old as a child. You're like
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: little Ilhan. And go take a look at the family
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: Ramadan photo, right? And if you see your husband in
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: the photograph sitting next to you, that means that you
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: have an incestuous relationship. I mean, it's a really simple
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: thing here. But we don't even know who she is.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: When you look at the actual documents from the DOJ,
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: she has an AKA. So she may not even be
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Ilhan Omar. So now we don't know who the husband is.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: We don't know who the brother is. Who's the daddy?
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Who's the daddy? That's what I want to know. And
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: more importantly, and I've got to be fairly delicate here, No,
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: I can't go there, but okay. Are the children okay?
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: Are they all right? I'm just, you know, because, I mean,
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: that's the whole reason you're not supposed to marry, like,
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: your first cousin or your brother or sibling, because the
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: kids might come out, I don't know, with, like, toes
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: where their hands ought to be and, you know. I'm
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: just asking if they're okay. What a mess. What a mess.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: The family tree, it doesn't branch, ladies and gentlemen, and
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: that's a big no-no. And by the way, I just
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: want to say, on behalf of all of us people
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: in the South, and we know the jokes, we know
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: the jokes, but that woman is no Southerner. I just
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: want to point that out for all you folks in
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: West Virginia. All right, 901-260-5926, our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: We're going to be getting to your calls. We'll be
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: right back. I was thinking back to the pandemic in
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: 2020 when the media narrative was absolute. People suggesting early
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: alternatives were actually silenced and deplatformed. The late Dr. Zev
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: Zelenko was at the center of the controversy with Z-Stack
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: and the Zelenko Protocol. He faced immense criticism for sharing
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: his approach to But President Trump later cited Dr. Zelenko
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: during a press briefing. And today, his legacy lives on
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: through the original Z-Stack formula. Z-Stack provides nutritional support for
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: your immune system as part of your daily wellness routine.

• 15:22
  Speaker 5: agony on me. Deep, empty crash and excessive misery. If
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.
• 15:40
  Speaker 13: My wife was so unhappy, she started to pack.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: Bless your brother. But I figured I could get us
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: back on the right track. Don't go back.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: So I give her a weekly allowance, but you fellas
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: know how that is.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: So she spent it before I had a chance to
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: borrow it back.
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: Oh, Christmas.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: Whoa!
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: All right, come on, James Bond. Georgia, belt it out.
• 16:09
  Speaker 14: Whoa!
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: All right. Well, that's how conservative talk media is, ladies
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: and gentlemen. Everybody's all gloom, despair, and agony on me.
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: And we're just not going to do that here on
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: this program. We're going to walk you off the ledge,
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: walk you back from the ledge if we need to. But,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: ladies and gentlemen, if we just do our job and
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: get out there and vote... We'll be just fine. All right,
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: let's go to the phones. 901-260-5926. Mike in Clear Lake City, Texas,
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: listening to us on Patriot Talk 920. Hey, Mike, what's
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: on your mind?
• 16:54
  Speaker 15: Well, I'm sorry I missed you yesterday. I had every
• 16:57
  Speaker 15: intention of going. I had it planned until my wife
• 17:00
  Speaker 15: asked me where we were going for our anniversary. So
• 17:03
  Speaker 15: I had to not show up at your event yesterday,
• 17:07
  Speaker 15: but Anyway, I had you on my mind listening to
• 17:10
  Speaker 15: your guest host. Wish I could have been there. But
• 17:15
  Speaker 15: my thing about the voting is I don't understand why
• 17:18
  Speaker 15: people are so anxious or nervous. All you can do
• 17:21
  Speaker 15: is cast your vote, cast your ballot. Once that's done,
• 17:25
  Speaker 15: it's over and done with. Just vote, do your duty,
• 17:28
  Speaker 15: and let the chips fall where they may.
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: You know, and here's the challenge, Mike, is that a
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: lot of folks are going to buy into all the
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: negative polling. And of course, we had the story come out.
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: One poll was just flat out fake that was being
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: used by many other polling agencies and politicos. They're buying
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: into all this desperation coming out of the media. And
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: we don't want to demoralize the base of the party,
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: which is why You know, I'm willing to step up
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: and say, you know what? We've got this. We just
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: have to get our people out to the polls.
• 18:04
  Speaker 15: Well, that's what I don't understand. I don't get the
• 18:07
  Speaker 15: connection between what the polls say, who they favor, who
• 18:11
  Speaker 15: they don't favor, and your privilege of voting. To me,
• 18:16
  Speaker 15: one has nothing to do with the other. And I mean,
• 18:19
  Speaker 15: you know, the Bible, Jesus instructs us not to worry.
• 18:23
  Speaker 15: You know, it's not going to add a day to
• 18:25
  Speaker 15: your life. And so the same people that are always
• 18:27
  Speaker 15: talking about God's in control and Trump was appointed by
• 18:31
  Speaker 15: God and so on and so forth, but yet they'll
• 18:34
  Speaker 15: turn around and be anxious over the midterms. I really
• 18:38
  Speaker 15: don't get the connection.
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: Look, I believe that God expects us to do some work, right?
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: I don't think he just hands us stuff. We've got
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: to do our part, and our part is getting out
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: and voting. So Look, I do believe that no matter
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: what happens, good or bad, God is still on the throne,
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: God is still in control, and we're going to be
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: able to get through it together. That's the whole point, Mike.
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: So we hate that you didn't show up. Look, you
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: got a great excuse, but Mike, we'll be back one
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: of these days, and I look forward to meeting you
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: in person. We've got some great, great listeners, not just
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: in Texas, but all across this great country. We do.
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: All right. 901-260-5926, our telephone number. What is voter turnout
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: looking like in your areas? Give us a call. Give
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: us a report. We'll be right back. All right, welcome back, everybody.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show. I was following
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: this story. It did not get a lot of national attention.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: But this is from McKinney, Texas, where the FBI arrested
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: a 17-year-old Muslim. And this individual, they're not naming the teenager,
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: but they're saying that he planned to assassinate Congressman Keith Self,
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: who is a regular guest on this program. The federal
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: investigation conducted by the FBI said the teenager was also
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: planning to carry out a terrorist attack in North Texas
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: on behalf of ISIS. He was arrested October the 5th
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: after he acquired a firearm. This is all according to
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: the FBI. Sources tell WFAA, that's the big TV station
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: in Dallas, that the 17-year-old had been radicalized recently and
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: was being monitored by federal agents, the teenager in federal custody.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: And Congressman Self certainly breathing a sigh of relief, saying
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: that protecting our, and here's what he told WFAA in
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: a statement, protecting our constitutional republic from radical Islam is
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: getting messy. I served in the military for 25 years
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: with the mindset that defending freedom was worth the sacrifice.
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: And now all of this.
• 21:05
  Speaker 12: Wow.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Here's the question.
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: What do you do with all of these Islamists? Do
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: you deport all of them? Do you send them all
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: back to wherever they came from? What do you do
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: with the ones who are still left here? Do you understand? Look,
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: there are a good many people who believe that all
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: of the Muslims need to be rounded up and they
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: need to be sent back to where they came from.
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure where I'm at right now on that,
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: but I can tell you that we've got a big
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: problem on our hands. And if push comes to shove,
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: the reality is, first of all, Islam is completely incompatible
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: with our way of life, completely incompatible. And it's almost
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: laughable because you see all these states saying that they're
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: passing bans on Sharia law. You really think they're paying
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: attention to that? Do you really think that the Muslims
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: are going to obey that because their life is Sharia?
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: So unless the government decides, okay, everybody's got to go,
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: then we're going to be in grave danger as a country.
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: And thank God the FBI captured this teenager before he
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: could hurt a congressman's self and wage jihad on American soil. 901-260-5926,
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926. So, look, there's a big— the
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: Young Turks came out with a big expose. They were
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: teasing it all day yesterday, and they said, hey, look,
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: this is serious news. This is going to impact the election,
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: and they just a little while ago released snippets from
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: the documentary. And so the Young Turks are alleging that
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: the late Senator Lindsey Graham paid three male escorts for sex—
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: One of them was only 17 years old at the time. Now,
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: the Young Turks say the reason why they're putting out
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: this documentary, which is besmirching a dead man, is because
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: it created a serious national security risk. And I actually
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: think they've got a fairly good point here. But the
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: reality is, and this is interesting, one of the head
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: honchos at Turning Point USA said, oh, yeah, we knew
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: this all along. Everybody knew that Lindsey Graham was gay.
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: That's why they called him Lady Graham. So my question
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: to you, ladies and gentlemen, I want to play this
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: audio here and let you listen to these three male
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: escorts making their allegations. First of all, do you think
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: it's going to have any impact on the election in
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: South Carolina? And number two, are you really surprised that
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: Lindsey Graham was doing this in his private life? Cut
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: number 20.
• 24:04
  Speaker 14: My name is Kelvin. I had sex with Lindsey Graham
• 24:08
  Speaker 14: as a minor.
• 24:09
  Speaker 16: I'm Corey and I had sex with Senator Lindsey Graham.
• 24:12
  Speaker 13: I am Jesse and I had sex with Lindsey Graham.
• 24:17
  Speaker 14: He just said, okay, I think we're done here. I
• 24:20
  Speaker 14: need you to go get dressed. He's like, the $ 120,
• 24:24
  Speaker 14: your payment, is on the rafter that basically where my
• 24:31
  Speaker 14: coat was hung. I didn't notice it before when I
• 24:34
  Speaker 14: got over there. Suddenly it was there and I got dressed.
• 24:38
  Speaker 16: He's like, the it's over there. And, uh, he's referring
• 24:42
  Speaker 16: to like a, a stack of cash, like a payment. Uh,
• 24:46
  Speaker 16: he doesn't hand it off to me. It's just sitting
• 24:48
  Speaker 16: on the dresser. I'm like, like you booked me for
• 24:50
  Speaker 16: an oat. Like, do you want to like have a drink?
• 24:52
  Speaker 16: Do you want, do you want to do anything else?
• 24:53
  Speaker 13: He came out of the bathroom, put the remainder of
• 24:55
  Speaker 13: his clothes on and then paid me with $ 200 bills
• 24:58
  Speaker 13: and three $ 20 bills and gave me $ 260. And my
• 25:00
  Speaker 13: rate was $ 250. I did not have change on me
• 25:01
  Speaker 13: for the 20. So, I just kept the rest.
• 25:09
  Speaker 16: After I left the hotel, you know, like I said,
• 25:13
  Speaker 16: the demeanor of like, you know, this is like somebody
• 25:16
  Speaker 16: from another class. And I was like, that accent.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: And I'm in D.C. and, you know, my brain is
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: putting pieces together. A little curious as to who this is.
• 25:24
  Speaker 14: I didn't want to be recorded. I didn't want my
• 25:28
  Speaker 14: life to be defined by me being an escort when
• 25:31
  Speaker 14: I was 17, so I was afraid of where that
• 25:35
  Speaker 14: footage would go. I felt like the video that he
• 25:38
  Speaker 14: was trying to take would be used for personal gratification or.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Used for.
• 25:47
  Speaker 14: His buddies. I'm afraid that.
• 25:51
  Speaker 14: That people in power have a collection of videos, and
• 25:55
  Speaker 14: I was being added to this collection.
• 25:57
  Speaker 13: Does that make you mad? Does that make America mad?
• 26:01
  Speaker 13: Is that what your elected officials are supposed to be doing?
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 26:07
  Speaker 13: I think that we need to hold elected officials to
• 26:09
  Speaker 13: a higher standard.
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: So says the male escort. Yeah, so look, a couple
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: of things here, and I just, I got an email
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: just from one of our listeners. Carl Carl Lee said,
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: and I want to try to, I think Carl Lee
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: is writing to us from somewhere in Alabama. Dead gummit, Todd,
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: I was just eating my Vayner sausages and just threw
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: them up.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: You got to give us warning.
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: About stuff like that. I'm sorry, Carl Lee. I didn't
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: mean that. You're eating your Vayner sausages. He's right, Dylan.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: I should have alerted. We should have given a warning.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: PSA to all the Vayner sausage eaters at this time.
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: It's Viener. If you're in Alabama, it's Viener.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Sorry, fellas.
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: With some saltines.
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: Of course.
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: Sorry, I didn't mean to. I know it's the lunch hour,
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: and I apologize. But look, a couple of things here.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: First of all, the question is, who in Washington is
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: not shacking up with the male escorts? That's the broader question.
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: Because I don't know if you realize this, but just
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: about everybody in Washington, D.C. is gay. And that is
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: probably one of the worst-kept secrets in all of politics.
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: There was a great story done almost a couple of
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: years ago. They did a big essay about how difficult
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: it is for these drop-dead gorgeous women, especially conservative women,
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: to find guys to date because the guys are all
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: dating each other. No, it's true. Folks, trust me on this.
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: So now you've got Turning Point USA, Andrew Colvett, who
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: is running the show over there, says, Dear Democrats, this
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: is why we called him Lady Graham. This isn't an
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: October surprise. We've known this for years. And blaming his
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: sister for the fact Lindsay was a poorly closeted gay
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: man is only going to backfire. So I don't think
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: that's the issue here. And I think there is a
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: legitimate concern here. And again, it's America. If you are gay,
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: then you're allowed to be gay in the United States
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: of America without fear of persecution. That's the greatness of
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: our Constitution. But the issue is if you are closeted
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: and you're trying to keep that a secret and you're on,
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: let's say, I don't know, you're on a number of
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: Senate committees where you're dealing with national secrets, then yes,
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: you would open yourself up to possible blackmail. And so
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: I do think that is, in fact, a legitimate issue.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: So anyway, and this should have been addressed a long
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: time ago. I mean, if it really was an open
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: secret in Washington that Lindsey Graham was gay, and I
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: have no knowledge of that, but I can tell you
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: that if this was an open secret, that was a
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: very dangerous thing because, again, Lindsey Graham had access to
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: information that that could have made him susceptible to blackmail.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: And that was the reason why I think this is
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: a big story. 901-260-5926, our telephone number, that's 901-260-5926. Let's
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: go to the phones. Angie, Dahlonega, Georgia, WDUN, our great
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: affiliate there. Hi, Angie, what's on your mind?
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: Hey, Todd, I'm not from Gowanaga. I'm from Talmo, Georgia.
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: Oh, my apologies. No, it's okay.
• 29:40
  Speaker 10: You don't remember me. I'm the one that always calls
• 29:43
  Speaker 10: you and gives you a tangent.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: This is Angie.
• 29:45
  Speaker 10: I've won your books and everything.
• 29:47
  Speaker 17: The one you always say, go, Angie.
• 29:49
  Speaker 10: God bless her. The one that told me, God bless me,
• 29:51
  Speaker 10: and you don't do that to southern women. But anyway,
• 29:54
  Speaker 10: here's my question. I got two things before you yell
• 29:58
  Speaker 10: at me, okay? Why are we letting foreign nationals into
• 30:02
  Speaker 10: our government to begin with? Number one. Number two. Why
• 30:08
  Speaker 10: are we always, always on the backside of everything? Why
• 30:14
  Speaker 10: is the United States.
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: Are you talking about Lindsey Graham, all that, or.
• 30:18
  Speaker 10: No, no.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 30:19
  Speaker 18: I called in.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: My apologies.
• 30:21
  Speaker 10: On Lindsey Graham.
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: You were talking about the backside, yeah.
• 30:24
  Speaker 10: No, no, no.
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: I hear what you're saying. I misunderstood.
• 30:28
  Speaker 10: Right. I want to know why... We are letting national
• 30:33
  Speaker 10: foreigners into our own government. We don't know who they're
• 30:37
  Speaker 10: associated with. We don't know this. As far as the
• 30:41
  Speaker 10: Muslims and as far as all this other stuff, everybody
• 30:46
  Speaker 10: thinks it's kind of crazy, but we have come as
• 30:49
  Speaker 10: Southerners in the state of Georgia, as conservative Republicans, we
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: are going against what we call planters. P-L-A-N-T-E-R-S. People come
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: from other parts of the United States. They don't like
• 31:04
  Speaker 10: where they live, so they come in our area and
• 31:07
  Speaker 10: change it to where they just left.
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: All right, I'm going to answer your question here. First
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: of all, I believe that we should reserve all elected positions,
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: and hear me on this. Every elected position in America
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: should only be eligible for an American-born position. citizens. So
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: if you were born here, and this would apply to
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: Vivek Ramaswamy over in Ohio, it doesn't matter. If you
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: came here from another country and you're not born on
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: American soil, you don't get to run for office. Because
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: at the end of the day, we've got far too many,
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: to your point, Angie, we have way too many people
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: that are currently serving in office that have pledged their
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: allegiance to another country like Somalia, for example, which is
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: the big problem they've been dealing with in Minnesota. So, yeah,
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: I say ban all foreigners from running for office in America.
• 32:05
  Speaker 10: I agree with you. That was my question. So everybody's
• 32:09
  Speaker 10: been changing the Constitution, but why can't they change that part?
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: That's a fair point. I mean, and that could be introduced.
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: You have to have a convention of the states, and
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: you could add an amendment to the Constitution. but that's
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: going to take some time. But right now, we've got
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: to make sure, we don't even know who's, and this
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: is another problem, Angie, there is no rule. When you
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: want to run for office, you don't have to, or like, say,
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: for example, Congress, there is no rule that says, okay,
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: you've got to show us your papers to make sure
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: you are who you say you are. Seems like common
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: sense to me, Angie.
• 32:49
  Speaker 10: It seems like common sense to me, too, but America probably,
• 32:53
  Speaker 10: or in my opinion, common sense doesn't exist in the
• 32:57
  Speaker 10: United States of America anymore. And when the guy called
• 33:01
  Speaker 10: in Texas about doing the vote, we think that we're
• 33:04
  Speaker 10: voting correctly. We think that we're voting for all of
• 33:08
  Speaker 10: these people that will help change America. And then when
• 33:12
  Speaker 10: the voter, when it's voted in, Do our votes really count?
• 33:16
  Speaker 10: That's the other thing. We have southern Georgia, right? You've
• 33:21
  Speaker 10: got Tennessee. I was born in Memphis. You've got people
• 33:24
  Speaker 10: moving from New York and California to Tennessee and Georgia.
• 33:28
  Speaker 10: They don't like Tennessee or New York, but they want
• 33:31
  Speaker 10: to change Tennessee to... to make it look like New York,
• 33:35
  Speaker 10: so to speak. Does that make sense, what I'm saying?
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: No, it does. And all you have to do is
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: go to Nashville, which used to be a fine, fine
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: southern town filled with Baptists and honky-tonks, and now you've
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: got more vegan restaurants than you have honky-tonks in Nashville
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: because of all the Californians moving in. And they have
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: turned Nashville into Nash-Vegas. And I think a lot of
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: people here in Tennessee, for example— are really bothered by that.
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: You know, it's interesting, Angie, you mentioned that. While I
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: was in Houston, a fellow came up to me, and
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: he was a little critical of me, Angie. I was shocked, but,
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: you know, hey, look, I accept criticism. He said that
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: I needed to have a more Southern accent on the radio.
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: He said my Southern accent was not as strong as
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: it should be. And his overarching concern is, that we're
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: homogenizing the nation. In other words, if you go to
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: Atlanta right now, you'd be hard-pressed to find anybody who
• 34:33
  Speaker 5: would say, how y'all doing, for example. Nobody speaks Southern anymore.
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: All right, Angie, thank you for that call. Dylan, I
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: feel bad. I thought she was talking about Lindsey Graham
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: when she's... It's a common mistake. Yeah, my apologies. I
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: stand corrected. Real quick, let's go to Wyatt in Beaufort, Georgia. Oh,
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: by the way, Angie and Wyatt, you guys hope to
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: see y'all at the big book signing next Tuesday at
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: Longstreet Cafe. They're in Gainesville. Going to be a lot
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: of fun.
• 35:06
  Speaker 19: Longstreet Cafe is a great, great, great place to eat.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: And sign books. Wyatt, what's going on?
• 35:13
  Speaker 19: What I can't understand, this is, I've traveled to Tennessee
• 35:20
  Speaker 19: a lot. And I'm going to compare apples to apples.
• 35:25
  Speaker 19: And I'm going to use Sam's Club to do it
• 35:27
  Speaker 19: with gasoline at Sam's Club in Chattanooga. The rightest moment
• 35:33
  Speaker 19: is $ 3. 27 a gallon. And don't y'all still have a
• 35:36
  Speaker 19: sales tax on your gas? Y'all haven't dropped it.
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: I don't think so.
• 35:42
  Speaker 19: Georgia, we have dropped our sales tax on our gas.
• 35:48
  Speaker 20: And, uh, And.
• 35:49
  Speaker 19: It's $ 33. Y'all's is $ 27. Ours is $ 0. 33 a gallon. Okay,
• 35:55
  Speaker 19: Stem's Club up there is $ 3.
• 35:57
  Speaker 15: 27.
• 35:58
  Speaker 19: In Beaufort, Georgia, right now, if you go to Stem's Club,
• 36:02
  Speaker 19: it's $ 3. 43 a gallon.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 36:07
  Speaker 19: It's been that way for a long time. I've been
• 36:10
  Speaker 19: talking about this. There is some crazy crap going on
• 36:14
  Speaker 19: with gas stations. We might not look all, we blame
• 36:18
  Speaker 19: everything on Trump, but maybe there's some other stuff going on.
• 36:22
  Speaker 19: There's no reason, because if we had Sam's Club gas
• 36:26
  Speaker 19: and dropped 33 cents, we would be under $ 2 a gallon.
• 36:31
  Speaker 19: And last Christmas, in the month of December, they dropped
• 36:37
  Speaker 19: gas prices again. And I was on the DUN in
• 36:41
  Speaker 19: Gainesville station talking about this, Everybody expected once the gas
• 36:48
  Speaker 19: tax was added back on, in fact, the day before
• 36:51
  Speaker 19: everybody loaded their cars up with gas, they expected it
• 36:54
  Speaker 19: to go up 33 cents a gallon. Well, not only
• 36:58
  Speaker 19: did it go up, it came down.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: All right. Well, let me jump in here because we're
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: up against a break quiet, but I will say Tennessee,
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: ours is 27.4 cents. That's our tax. You guys in Georgia,
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: 33.3 cents a That's your tax, which, by the way,
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: will expire, I think, October 29th. And so, yeah, I mean, look,
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: gas stations, some are going to charge more, some are
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: going to charge less. It's important to have, I mean,
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: there are some apps out there that keep track of
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: all of that stuff. But you're right. I mean, when
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: you look at all of the other taxes you add
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: on the federal gas tax, to all of that, and
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: you're looking at $ 0. 45, $ 0. 46 a gallon just in taxes. Yep,
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: you're right. All right, got to take a break. We'll
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: be right back.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: From Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun-toting, Bible-clinging, deplorable American.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: That's us, that's right.
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: I love this American ride.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Todd Starnes.
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know why this story caught my attention, but
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: it did. Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Starnes Radio Show.
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: Great to have you with us. Our telephone number, 901- 901-260-5926.
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: That's 901-260-5926. Maybe it's because Josh Jones is like a,
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: you know, from a physical specimen. You know, he's a pretty,
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: you know, he's a good guy. You know, he's pretty healthy,
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: and I think he exercises and all that kind of stuff.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: Let's bring Josh in for a quick second. We're going
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: to talk politics. But, Josh, I mean, you exercise. You
• 38:51
  Speaker 5: watch what you eat, I have to imagine.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: I try to, yeah, most of the time.
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: You're not a, what do they call them, Dylan fatties?
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: Is that what they call them?
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: That's what Pete Hegseth calls them, right? No fatties in
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: the military.
• 39:06
  Speaker 18: That's funny.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right.
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: So there's a study out of the University of Illinois Urbana, guys,
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: and they're very concerned about anti-fat bias and something called
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: weight stigma. And I think that's kind of the feeling.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: And they're basically saying all of you folks that are
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: very healthy and skinny. And, yes, and, Josh, I'm not
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: calling you skinny because, you know, you're physically fit. But
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: you're on the thin side. But, Josh, you know, you
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: travel a lot. And, you know, if you get into–
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: you're one of the first people on the plane and
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: you start seeing everybody coming, you're sizing everybody up. And
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: you're like, I hope that person isn't sitting next to me.
• 39:53
  Speaker 18: Especially with the planes now. I don't know if you've
• 39:56
  Speaker 18: been on one of the newer planes. I swear they've
• 39:58
  Speaker 18: made the seats smaller. But that's a whole other point.
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they are. They're smaller. And so you don't want
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: to be that guy that's sitting next to the 400-pounder
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: trying to squeeze into that seat. And they're like body fat. like,
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: sort of oozes out and over and invades your space.
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, nobody wants that. And so anyway,
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: they're all upset. This university is upset, and they say,
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: we've got to do something about the anti-fat bias and
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: the weight stigma. Dylan, you've seen it. Somebody's scarfing down, like,
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: an entire supersized bag of Doritos, and they're washing it
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: down with a six-pack of Diet Coke.
• 40:32
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: You love to see that coming your way.
• 40:34
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: This is going to be a fun ride.
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: So anyway, their whole mission in life is to change
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: their perception of being fat, and they want to end
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: fat phobia. Which, by the way, that's the fear of
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: getting crushed by a morbidly obese woman who trips on
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: the sidewalk. Nobody wants that. Anyway, they call it Fat Liberation.
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: That's what they're calling it, Fat Liberation. And they're celebrating
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: Fat Liberation Month, which back when I was a kid
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: growing up meant that your mom was going to Weight Watchers.
• 41:05
  Speaker 5: So that's how she was liberated from her fat. But
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: now I guess they want everybody to be supersized, I suppose.
• 41:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's crazy.
• 41:16
  Speaker 18: I mean, look, there's a lot going on in the
• 41:19
  Speaker 18: world right now, and I can't believe this is what
• 41:22
  Speaker 18: people are focused on.
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, we try to mix it up here
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: on the Tom Stearns Radio Show, Josh. And Josh, by
• 41:28
  Speaker 5: the way, our chief political strategist, smartest guy in D.C.,
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: and knows everything about everything. And Josh, I'm just curious,
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: how are things going? We're sliding into, what, less than
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: two weeks away now.
• 41:43
  Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: What are things looking like? What are your projections?
• 41:47
  Speaker 18: Yeah, like you said, we're less than two weeks out
• 41:49
  Speaker 18: at this point. So we're really in that final crunch time.
• 41:52
  Speaker 18: People are sprinting for the finish line. Look, if you
• 41:55
  Speaker 18: listen to the polls, it's going to be a bad
• 41:58
  Speaker 18: year for Republicans. I think a lot of these pollsters are, one,
• 42:01
  Speaker 18: there's multiple stories that came out over the past couple
• 42:04
  Speaker 18: weeks of two to three of these pollsters just being
• 42:06
  Speaker 18: shirt up fake, that they may get the numbers, they're
• 42:08
  Speaker 18: not real, and they just did it because they wanted
• 42:10
  Speaker 18: to support a certain candidate or whatever else. So I
• 42:14
  Speaker 18: don't know if you can put that much stock into
• 42:16
  Speaker 18: the polls. But what I can tell you are Democrats
• 42:19
  Speaker 18: are fired up. Democrat voters are going to show up
• 42:21
  Speaker 18: to vote on November or early vote leading up to November,
• 42:25
  Speaker 18: whereas there's a little bit of less enthusiasm on the
• 42:27
  Speaker 18: Republican side of the aisle. And that's an issue. And
• 42:30
  Speaker 18: what I've been telling folks, candidates and voters alike, is, look,
• 42:33
  Speaker 18: you really have to draw a contract with what the
• 42:36
  Speaker 18: Democratic Party is. If you're a Republican voter, this is
• 42:39
  Speaker 18: not your Democrat party. I mean, excuse me, not your
• 42:42
  Speaker 18: grandpa's Democratic Party. People are socialists. They've ran so far
• 42:46
  Speaker 18: to the left that the stakes are too high to stay.
• 42:49
  Speaker 18: So even if you're not the most enthused voter right
• 42:52
  Speaker 18: now on the Republican side of the aisle, you have
• 42:54
  Speaker 18: to get out and stop these Democrats from getting into office.
• 42:57
  Speaker 18: Because also, too, I'll talk it all off with, look,
• 43:00
  Speaker 18: you may not like who your Republican nominee is, but
• 43:03
  Speaker 18: your time to debate that is.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: In the primary.
• 43:05
  Speaker 18: We're now in the general election. You have to get
• 43:07
  Speaker 18: out and support the Republican nominee. And guess what? In
• 43:10
  Speaker 18: a couple years, there'll be another Republican primary.
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Josh, I know that you've been a longtime Republican. When
• 43:16
  Speaker 5: you were back at Liberty University, you were in leadership
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: in the Republican Party. Does it bother you that there
• 43:22
  Speaker 5: are folks like Karl Rove and the Bushes and John
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: Cornyn that are actively campaigning against the Republican nominee?
• 43:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely.
• 43:33
  Speaker 18: I mean, especially if you're someone that's been in leadership,
• 43:35
  Speaker 18: whether that's elected office or party leadership in the Republican Party.
• 43:40
  Speaker 18: I mean, it's an absolute disgrace. You are a Republican,
• 43:45
  Speaker 18: and then you agree with a party or individuals within
• 43:48
  Speaker 18: the party 100% of the time. Look, the Republican Party
• 43:51
  Speaker 18: is a big party. There's a lot of different factions
• 43:53
  Speaker 18: and a lot of different opinions. I would argue that
• 43:55
  Speaker 18: makes us better than the Democrats, and it's a good thing.
• 43:58
  Speaker 18: It does mean we're going to have disagreements and arguments.
• 44:01
  Speaker 18: But somebody who you agree with 80% of the time
• 44:03
  Speaker 18: is still your ally and they're still on your team.
• 44:06
  Speaker 18: You should go out and support them. So any Republican leader, especially,
• 44:10
  Speaker 18: that's not supporting the Republican nominees, shouldn't be in the
• 44:13
  Speaker 18: party to begin with.
• 44:15
  Speaker 5: You know, well said. And you're right. And this is
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: happening all over the country. And that's why I'm, again,
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: I'm not concerned, but I think it is a factor.
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: You know, are you going to be facing opposition from
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: establishment Republicans or I know that Cornyn and others are saying,
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: and Tom Tillis is out there now, saying, well, in
• 44:34
  Speaker 5: the future, we've got to make sure that we do
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: a better job of vetting candidates, suggesting that both sides
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: need to eliminate the extremes. Okay, well, what exactly, what's
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: your definition of extreme? That's what I want to know.
• 44:48
  Speaker 18: It's a fair question. What kind of quality does matter?
• 44:53
  Speaker 7: How you get there?
• 44:53
  Speaker 18: No question. My opinion is you let the voters decide.
• 44:57
  Speaker 18: That's the simplest solution. You have these primaries for a reason.
• 45:00
  Speaker 18: That's when you duke it out with your party, and
• 45:02
  Speaker 18: whoever wins, wins, and then you move on.
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: Wow, this big breaking news story out of Virginia, Josh.
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: This is insane. State Senator Lily Louise Lucas has been
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: indicted by the Justice Department, accused of leading a marijuana
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: distribution enterprise. She is one of the top leaders in
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: the Senate, 82 years old, and was accused of using
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: her political power and committee influence to shield the family
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: marijuana ring operation. What say you?
• 45:32
  Speaker 18: I'm saying this is long overdue. I don't know how
• 45:37
  Speaker 18: familiar people are with my background, but before I was
• 45:41
  Speaker 18: on the political consultant side of things, I used to
• 45:44
  Speaker 18: work in the state senate with Louise Lucas. I wasn't
• 45:47
  Speaker 18: part of her office, don't get me wrong, but I
• 45:48
  Speaker 18: worked in the state senate while she was in the
• 45:50
  Speaker 18: state senate. I mean, and she was one of the
• 45:52
  Speaker 18: most obnoxious clearly corrupt individuals in the entire General Assembly.
• 45:57
  Speaker 18: And this investigation has been going on for years, even
• 46:00
  Speaker 18: before the Trump administration, so before people are like, oh,
• 46:03
  Speaker 18: it's politically motivated. This was started under Biden. So this
• 46:07
  Speaker 18: is not a political prosecution. She's a crook, and it's
• 46:10
  Speaker 18: been a long time coming.
• 46:11
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just an insane story. But again, this is why, folks,
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: you've got to pay attention to who you're electing to
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: the statehouse. Josh, we have an update on a story
• 46:21
  Speaker 5: we talked about on Monday. Alyssa Slotkin, who's the senator
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: from Michigan, now facing an ethics complaint over a comment
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: she made. It was a direct threat to young people
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: who are thinking about working for the Trump administration, suggesting
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: that they could find themselves in jail or at least
• 46:42
  Speaker 5: facing some sort of a criminal investigation. And it's not
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: the first time this has happened. I mean, Hillary Clinton
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: talked about keeping lists of people. AOC did as well.
• 46:53
  Speaker 5: If you supported the president, then you need to be investigated.
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: And I'm wondering, as a young conservative, do you think
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: these kinds of threats are going to discourage young people
• 47:04
  Speaker 5: from jumping into politics?
• 47:07
  Speaker 18: I don't think so. I mean, I'm, it makes me
• 47:09
  Speaker 18: want to double down, um, because I've always thought of
• 47:12
  Speaker 18: my Democrat counter, you know, counter, uh, points, whether they're
• 47:16
  Speaker 18: on the political side or if they work on the
• 47:18
  Speaker 18: Hill or whatever the case may be that look, we're
• 47:20
  Speaker 18: on the battlefield of ideas. We may have different opinions,
• 47:22
  Speaker 18: but at the end of the day, we're all still
• 47:24
  Speaker 18: Americans and we're all, you know, hopefully working for what
• 47:27
  Speaker 18: we think is best for the country. Uh, genuinely never
• 47:30
  Speaker 18: met a Republican who's threatened, uh, investigations and prosecutions to
• 47:34
  Speaker 18: try and keep staffers out of positions. Um, Clearly, there's
• 47:38
  Speaker 18: some issues with her specifically on the Democrat side of
• 47:42
  Speaker 18: the aisle. But, yeah, I don't think it's going to
• 47:44
  Speaker 18: discourage people. Most folks I've talked to in D.C.
• 47:47
  Speaker 7: Didn't really say anything.
• 47:48
  Speaker 18: If anything, they want to double down. So maybe it's
• 47:50
  Speaker 18: actually helpful she said that.
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: Well, it's crazy stuff. So tell us, you know, here
• 47:56
  Speaker 5: in the final stretch or the home stretch, what are
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: your candidates doing? What do you advise candidates to do
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: in these next couple of weeks?
• 48:06
  Speaker 18: For the candidates, my advice has been don't listen to
• 48:09
  Speaker 18: the media. Don't listen to the polling. You've got to
• 48:12
  Speaker 18: be out on the campaign trail. Every election cycle, whether
• 48:14
  Speaker 18: it's true or not, you've got to run like you're
• 48:16
  Speaker 18: 10 points down. So we're in this final stretch.
• 48:19
  Speaker 7: You have two weeks left.
• 48:21
  Speaker 18: So if you're a candidate, don't listen to all the noise.
• 48:23
  Speaker 18: Just stay on the campaign trail. Do what you need
• 48:26
  Speaker 18: to do. and let the dust fall, let the chips
• 48:28
  Speaker 18: fall where they may on Election Day. If you're a voter,
• 48:31
  Speaker 18: you have to get out and vote. You have to
• 48:32
  Speaker 18: get 10 of your friends.
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: To get out and vote.
• 48:34
  Speaker 19: You have to call people.
• 48:35
  Speaker 18: You have to text people. Put a yard sign in
• 48:36
  Speaker 18: your yard. Let people know it's okay to vote for
• 48:38
  Speaker 18: the Republican Party because the media would make it seem
• 48:41
  Speaker 18: like an absolutely crazy thing to do.
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: Well said. Well said, Josh. Great advice. We'll be checking
• 48:48
  Speaker 5: in with you again next week. And, of course, Election Day,
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: we'll have you live on the air as well. Going
• 48:53
  Speaker 5: to be a lot of fun.
• 48:55
  Speaker 15: Yeah, it's going to be a fun one.
• 48:56
  Speaker 20: All right.
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: Josh Jones, everybody, on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. 901-260-5926,
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926. Hillary Clinton actually said back
• 49:13
  Speaker 5: in 2023 that there needs to be a formal deprogramming
• 49:17
  Speaker 5: of cult members, talking about people who believe in MAGA.
• 49:22
  Speaker 5: AOC in 2020 asking, is anybody archiving these Trump sycophants
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity
• 49:31
  Speaker 5: in the future? And of course, Senator Alyssa Slotkin saying
• 49:36
  Speaker 5: just a few days ago that that she is targeting
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: the people who enabled Trump and said she wants that
• 49:44
  Speaker 5: deterrence message. In other words, she wants to punish people
• 49:48
  Speaker 5: that support Donald Trump.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
• 49:51
  Speaker 5: These are the Democrats that are saying this. Not to mention,
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: by the way, Maxine Waters, She says you absolutely harass them,
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: whether they be in the supermarket, the gas station, the restaurants.
• 50:05
  Speaker 5: You target them. You make their lives miserable. You had
• 50:08
  Speaker 5: Bernie Sanders supporters saying that Trump supporters need to be
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: sent to re-education camps. Angie Nixon, running for the Senate
• 50:18
  Speaker 5: down in Florida just a few weeks ago, said that
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: she wanted her opponent... locked up and punished in jail
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: for what she had done on Capitol Hill, talking about
• 50:29
  Speaker 5: Republican Senator Ashley Moody. So do you understand why we
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: cannot allow these people to be anywhere near leadership in
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: the Congress? These are very dangerous people, and all of
• 50:40
  Speaker 5: this is coming right out of the Communist Party playbook.
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: All right, got to take a break. 901. 901-260-5926 is
• 50:49
  Speaker 5: our telephone number. Again, that number, 901-260-5926. You know I'm
• 50:56
  Speaker 5: all about health now after the last health scares, trying
• 51:01
  Speaker 5: to eat a little bit healthier, trying to make sure
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: I take all my vitamins, balance of nature, and trying
• 51:08
  Speaker 5: to eat a little bit healthier as well. Good days
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: and bad days with that, to be perfectly honest with you.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: But a lot of folks are just wanting to do
• 51:19
  Speaker 5: something to, I don't know, boost their immune system to
• 51:22
  Speaker 5: make sure that they're doing what they can to make
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: sure they don't get the flu, they don't get sick.
• 51:27
  Speaker 5: And that's one of the reasons why I'm a big
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: fan of ZStack. You might remember Dr. Zev Zelenko, who
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: was at the center of the COVID controversy. He was
• 51:37
  Speaker 5: silenced and deplatformed because of things like the Zelenko Protocol.
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: So anyway, that's one of the reasons I'm a big
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: fan of Z-Stack, because it actually works. It provides nutritional
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: support for my immune system as part of my daily
• 51:53

• 52:30
  Speaker 5: sure to cast your ballot. Also, I'm just curious to
• 52:33
  Speaker 5: know how early voting is going in your area. So
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: give us a call. Let us know.
• 52:38
  Speaker 7: 901-260-5926.
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: That's 901-260-5926.
• 52:44
  Speaker 5: May I just say that politics in Tennessee is just
• 52:47
  Speaker 5: off the charts insane right now. The general consensus is
• 52:53
  Speaker 5: that Marsha Blackburn is going to be the next governor
• 52:56
  Speaker 5: of Tennessee. She's the Republican nominee. She served many, many
• 52:59
  Speaker 5: years going up through the statehouse, serving in Congress, both
• 53:03
  Speaker 5: in the House and now the U.S.
• 53:05
  Speaker 10: Senate.
• 53:06
  Speaker 5: And yet, there are a lot of disgruntled Republicans that
• 53:10
  Speaker 5: are choosing to vote for the independent candidate, a guy
• 53:13
  Speaker 5: by the name of David Hatley, a convicted felon who
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: just got his voting rights back last year, has never
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: run for office before. Hatley is one of the top
• 53:25
  Speaker 5: hot tub producers in the country, I think, and is
• 53:28
  Speaker 5: a multi-bazillionaire. Dumped $ 12 million of his own money into
• 53:34
  Speaker 5: his campaign, and he is really chipping away at Marsha's numbers.
• 53:41
  Speaker 5: So I think there was some indication Marsha would win
• 53:44
  Speaker 5: by 60% of the vote. Right now, her own polling
• 53:48
  Speaker 5: has her in the 40s. And there are some polls
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: out there, and you can't trust any of them, but again,
• 53:54
  Speaker 5: there's one poll in particular that has Marsha, her Democrat opponent,
• 53:59
  Speaker 5: Jerry Green, who is a female, that's a female Jerry,
• 54:04
  Speaker 5: and David Hatley within the margin of error of everybody.
• 54:09
  Speaker 5: So don't be stupid, ladies and gentlemen, all you folks
• 54:13
  Speaker 5: in Tennessee. And I say that because Jerry Green is
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: out there portraying herself as a moderate Republican, Dylan, she's
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: hosting a drag show fundraiser at a bar that used
• 54:25
  Speaker 5: to be called Peckers.
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: That's not very Republican of her.
• 54:29
  Speaker 5: That's a Democrat, though. She's a Democrat.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: Moderate Republican.
• 54:34
  Speaker 5: Apparently, the bar, Peckers, has transitioned to a gay Latino
• 54:40
  Speaker 5: bar named Trax 327. And she's promoting all of this.
• 54:46
  Speaker 5: Veronica Peckers. Electronica is the drag queen. Not a very
• 54:50
  Speaker 5: attractive drag queen, by the way.
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: Well, at least the name rhymes.
• 54:54
  Speaker 5: That's true.
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: You've got to have something going for you if you're
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: going to be a drag queen.
• 54:59
  Speaker 5: I guess the more money you pay, the more attractive
• 55:02
  Speaker 5: they are. Is that kind of the way that works?
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. Probably.
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: Okay. Anyway, according to Jerry Green, who is the Democrat
• 55:11
  Speaker 5: nominee for governor, hosting the drag show benefiting her campaign...
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: So this is what it says here. Come see the
• 55:20
  Speaker 5: queens do what Marcia can't. And I'm thinking to myself, well,
• 55:25
  Speaker 5: what is that? Peas standing up? I just— Just one.
• 55:30
  Speaker 5: What does that mean?
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 55:33
  Speaker 5: I don't understand.
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to see that.
• 55:36
  Speaker 5: I wonder if they're going to have a drag queen
• 55:37
  Speaker 5: dressed up like Marcia.
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: Guarantee it.
• 55:40
  Speaker 5: No doubt about it.
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: No doubt.
• 55:42
  Speaker 5: No doubt. No doubt about it. But anyway, Marsha's calling
• 55:45
  Speaker 5: her opponent, Jerry Green, a fascist and a socialist. I
• 55:49
  Speaker 5: don't know about that, but she does love hanging around
• 55:52
  Speaker 5: the Queens. Jerry Green does. All right. I just got it.
• 55:59
  Speaker 5: Never mind. What an odd name for a.
• 56:02
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 56:02
  Speaker 12: All right.
• 56:03
  Speaker 5: Got to take a break here. 901-260-5926, our telephone number.
• 56:08
  Speaker 5: This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back, everybody.
• 56:30
  Speaker 5: This is the Todd Starnes Radio Show. Great to have
• 56:32
  Speaker 5: you with us. I want to go right away to
• 56:34
  Speaker 5: the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line, say hello to our good friend,
• 56:38
  Speaker 5: Chad Conley, the president of Faith Wins, that website address,
• 56:42
  Speaker 5: by the way, faithwins.org. Chad, good to have you with us.
• 56:47
  Speaker 5: I just got back from Houston, and the folks up there,
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: they're pretty fired up. They're dealing with record turnout. but
• 56:55
  Speaker 5: nobody knows who's turning out to vote. And I think
• 56:58
  Speaker 5: the same thing is happening in Tennessee. We're looking at
• 57:01
  Speaker 5: record turnout in Tennessee and Georgia as well. What are
• 57:05
  Speaker 5: you hearing out there in the flyover country?
• 57:10
  Speaker 21: Well, Todd, great to be with you as usual, brother.
• 57:12
  Speaker 21: Thanks for having me on. I started this week in Maine,
• 57:15
  Speaker 21: the great state of Maine. I did four meetings in Maine.
• 57:18
  Speaker 21: I did Three the next day in New Hampshire. Flew
• 57:20
  Speaker 21: to Wisconsin, did some there. Was actually in Minnesota. You know,
• 57:24
  Speaker 21: there's key races there now in the great state of Michigan.
• 57:28
  Speaker 21: And I actually fly out tonight for a breath at
• 57:30
  Speaker 21: home and change of clothes. Then next week, five more states.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: It's everywhere.
• 57:35
  Speaker 21: Record turnout is everywhere. In the places they can identify,
• 57:39
  Speaker 21: it looks like the Democrats are turning out, no question.
• 57:42
  Speaker 21: But it also looks like Republican turnout is surprisingly heavy
• 57:46
  Speaker 21: for a midterms. So you and I have talked about
• 57:48
  Speaker 21: on the show, we've got a lot of eggs in
• 57:50
  Speaker 21: the basket of President Trump creating a bunch of turnout
• 57:53
  Speaker 21: with all these rallies, and maybe that's what's happening, brother.
• 57:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, here's a lady that's really upset about the radical Muslims.
• 58:02
  Speaker 5: Cut number 12, please.
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: Democrats, I get it. Everybody's mad. The prices are high.
• 58:10
  Speaker 4: I feel it, too. I voted for Donald Trump. Do
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: I like everything he does?
• 58:15
  Speaker 10: No.
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: But are you aware of the fact, and I think
• 58:20
  Speaker 4: you're aware of it, that Muslims are using you to
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: get into office? I know this is true because I've
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: been getting messages from Muslims, ex-Muslims all around the world,
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: who are telling me that ever since I started posting
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: about the Quran, that yes, this is the truth. Muslims
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: are trying to take over our country. And they are
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: using the Democrats to do it. I just want to
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: put the message out there. You know, when you go
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: to vote, if you haven't voted already, please be mindful
• 58:56
  Speaker 4: of this. We've got to save our country. We don't
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: want to lose our country to Islam or socialism. You know,
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: you think you're mad now if that stuff gets into power.
• 59:11
  Speaker 4: just wait until you see what happens then. So anyway,
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: vote wisely.
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: Chad, I'm just curious. Are you seeing, are you sensing
• 59:21
  Speaker 5: a lot of that, that people understand what is really
• 59:24
  Speaker 5: at stake here?
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I really am, Todd.
• 59:27
  Speaker 21: Like I said, I'm in Michigan, and I've had some
• 59:29
  Speaker 21: pastors in my last couple days and some people who
• 59:32
  Speaker 21: were in the meeting last night, the church meeting last
• 59:34
  Speaker 21: night in Chesterfield, Michigan, which is ground zero for one
• 59:38
  Speaker 21: of the key congressional races, that people are waking up.
• 59:41
  Speaker 21: You know, you and I talked about on the show
• 59:43
  Speaker 21: about three weeks ago that the Republicans were late to
• 59:46
  Speaker 21: spend money, very late to define the left, And our
• 59:50
  Speaker 21: saving grace may be that left has gone so crazy
• 59:53
  Speaker 21: that it does wake people up. I am sensing that.
• 59:56
  Speaker 21: I think that up here in Michigan, people are realizing
• 59:59
  Speaker 21: this El-Sayed is a hoax.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: He's a fraudster.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 21: He'll say anything to get elected. And he's gone back
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 21: and forth, but clearly has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 21: at least through his extended family, if not himself in
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 21: some earlier posts. But the Socialist Democrats, the Democratic Socialists
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 21: all over the country are serving to wake people up.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 21: I mean, let's face it, when James Carville says, I'd
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 21: rather Republicans keep the House than the Democrat Socialists take
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 21: over my own party, maybe we're getting that kind of help.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 6: Too, brother.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, look, as a matter of fact, here is Mike
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 5: Rogers talking at this. They were debating and calling out
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 5: Abdul El-Sayed on a lot of his lies. Cut number 16, please.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 20: Somebody, a new investigator, about how you figure out if
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 20: somebody's honest and willing to tell you the truth, you
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 20: go through a series of questions.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 5: Did you lie on your resume?
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: Yep, did.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 5: He lied about being a physician.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 20: Did he lie about his relationships with an organization that
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 20: should give us all pause?
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 5: Yep, he did.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 20: He lied about being an Egyptian dual citizen. He lied
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 20: about some of his stances on these positions as he's
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 20: flipped again.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 5: This is a pattern.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 20: That we need to understand for this, to trust this candidate.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Chad, again, your boots on the ground in Michigan.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 5: Are you seeing that? Do people understand what's going on here?
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 21: I think they really do. We've got a group of
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 21: African-American pastors who've recently gotten involved with my lead pastor
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 21: here in Michigan. And we had a meeting about two
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 21: months ago and we had this conversation and they've been
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 21: actually saying, how do we teach our congregations who've been
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 21: so bent toward voting Democrat for so long. And of course,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 21: I'm using the same thing you and I've talked about
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 21: for years. That is talking about the biblical issues. And clearly,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 21: this guy doesn't pass muster when you have the Bible
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 21: as your reference point. I've been using this analogy, Todd.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 21: I've been telling people, and I'm sure I stole it
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 21: from somewhere.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: I heard it. God inspired.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 21: It's not Chad, but I've been saying, look, a lot
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 21: of people think elections are like the difference between Diet
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 21: Coke and Diet Pepsi, just not that much difference. It's
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 21: a preference thing. I don't think this is about Diet
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 21: Coke versus Diet Pepsi. I think it's about Diet Coke
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 21: versus Drano. And you may not like Diet Coke, but
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 21: Drano is going to kill you. And so much of
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 21: what the Democrats are embracing full on, it will kill
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 21: us as a nation.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 5: All right. I want to go to the phone. Speaking
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 5: of pastors, we've got Pastor Andre, who's listening to us
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 5: from Memphis, Tennessee on KWAM. Pastor Andre, you are on
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 5: the air with me and Chad Conley. You want to
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 5: weigh in on early voting. What are you hearing out there?
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 6: Hello, Todd. How are the days going?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 5: Thank you, Pastor.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 6: My wife and I, you know, I live in Millington,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 6: but my ministry is in North Memphis. But my wife
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 6: and I, we went in early voting. I got to admit,
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 6: my heart was just hard because there was very, very,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 6: very little traffic. When I do my gauging from North Memphis, unfortunately,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 6: these pastors that call themselves in the black church with
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 6: their souls to the pole, they have energized these people, man,
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 6: to where, well, this dude, Justin Pearson, they've hypnotized them
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 6: to do whatever. They are excited about going vote for
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 6: this guy. And if they don't watch it, man, if
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 6: the vote doesn't turn out, I mean, this dude could
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 6: sneak in there and stuff, and that would be a tragedy.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 6: I wish somebody would tell him about it, but that's
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 6: a big win, too.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 5: You know, Chad, and Pastor Andre's talking about many of
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 5: the black churches here doing a program called Souls to
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 5: the Polls, getting out the vote for the Democrat Party.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: What guidance would you give Pastor Andre, who's on the
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 5: other side of all of that?
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 21: Yeah, Pastor Andre, I'm really proud of you. I was
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 21: actually in Lansing, Michigan, about two months ago, and I
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 21: confronted a black pastor who was doing his souls to
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 21: the polls. And he was condemning a lot of conservative
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 21: policies as a Christian pastor. And I confronted him. I
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 21: was with our buddy Congressman Bob McEwen, too, Todd. And
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 21: this guy, blaspheme Charlie Kirk, took words out of context.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 21: And I went right at the guy. I gave him
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 21: my business card, my cell phone. I looked him in
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 21: the eye. I said, pastor is a man of God.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 21: Will you give me your word that you will call
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 21: me because you owe some explanation to some of the
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 21: things you said? He smirked at me. And of course,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 21: he never did. Now, what that led to, there were
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 21: like 11 or 12 other black pastors.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: In the room.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 21: It led to an open door of conversation about This
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 21: ain't about Republican, Democrat. This is good versus evil. And
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 21: that was right here in the heart of Michigan where
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 21: El Sayed is traipsing through and talking out of both
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 21: sides of his mouth. So I do think, to Pastor's point,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 21: they are mobilized. The left is mobilized. They don't care
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 21: a lot about the progressive leanings. but I think it's
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 21: waking people up, especially real Christians who are reading the
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 21: Bible saying, this guy is a national security threat, he's
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 21: a liar, and he's tied to things that would damage
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 21: and hurt our nation.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 5: Pastor Andre, I'm curious, are there many like-minded pastors in
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 5: your circle of friends, and what are they doing to
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 5: mobilize their congregations to get out the vote?
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 6: I have quite a few pastors that I know that
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 6: are like-minded as I am, as far as being courageous
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 6: enough to be vocal about it. With me and my congregation,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 6: that's why I used to call. What he was saying
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 6: with the pastors, that you put the gospel to explain
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 6: to people the demonic side of voting for Democrats. I
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 6: just say, see, it works. It works, but what happens
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 6: is you don't have enough people that are courageous enough
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 6: to stand on the gospel of God.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 19: They have scared these people.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 6: You got pastors that are afraid to say that homosexuality
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 6: is mean. Well, how's your congregation going to go if
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 6: you're not going to teach them what the Bible says
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 6: and see it? And they're like-minded, but they're not courageous.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 6: That's what I know.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 5: Chad, what's your encouragement to Pastor Andre here?
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: I tell you, you're doing the right thing, Pastor.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 21: One pastor who started that conversation a month, a month
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 21: and a half ago has now opened doors with 12
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 21: black pastors who are having real conversations about how do
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 21: I present this to my congregations? So you're doing the
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 21: right thing. We got to play the long game. Listen,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 21: El Seat here in Michigan is a real threat. There's
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 21: no question. Tallarico in Texas, he is absolutely blaspheming the
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 21: word of God that Adam Hamilton in Kansas. Heretics, all.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 21: So you're doing the right thing because, listen, I have
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 21: seen in meeting after meeting after meeting, one courageous pastor
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 21: with a backbone, it gives spines to the others around
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 21: and they realize I'm not.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: In this alone. So Look, brother, you keep standing.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 21: You're doing the right thing, okay?
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 6: Amen. Well, God bless y'all men. I will say this
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 6: as I go. I never come to them as being
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 6: a black pastor. I come to them as being a
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 6: pastor that happens to be black. That's one of the
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 6: main things you've got to get out of this.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 5: Amen to that, Pastor Andre. God bless you, Pastor, and
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 5: what a great, bold, courageous man. And we sure do
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: appreciate him listening to our local affiliate in Memphis, Tennessee. Chad,
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 5: I want to give you the last word here as
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 5: we get ready to go to break. And that is something,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 5: you know, I think when President Trump sent in the
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 5: National Guard and this Memphis Safe Task Force to our city,
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 5: this was the city that did not vote for Donald Trump.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: This is a city that probably will not vote Republican
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 5: majority for a very long time. But the president saw
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 5: that the people were hurting, that kids were not able
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 5: to play in the playgrounds, grandmas weren't able to go
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 5: to the grocery store without getting carjacked. And President Trump
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 5: stepped in, and he did what the Democrats who control
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 5: Memphis could not do, which is get crime under control, 49%
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 5: drop in crime. And I do wonder if those kinds
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 5: of results are going to help Move people out of
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 5: this box they're in of always voting Democrat.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 21: You know, I think all that stuff helps. And I
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 21: do think President Trump running around the country reminding people
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 21: of stuff like that. Did you see this stat to
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 21: your point about violent crime? Did you see that violent
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 21: crime is down to levels below 1900, Todd? That's a
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 21: direct result of closing the border and getting the illegals
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 21: out of there. So, yes, I think common sense people
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 21: recognize this. And we've always known there's an undercurrent. And
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 21: President Trump is the best at bringing out that low
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 21: propensity response. undercurrent of voter that's not being polled, they're
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 21: not getting the annoying text messages, and they're not getting
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 21: the mail pieces. So I'm hopeful that normal people are
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 21: coming out. I saw it in Wisconsin yesterday. I was
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 21: in Minnesota the day before. I think all that waste, fraud,
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 21: and abuse that's been uncovered, that's making a difference in Minnesota.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 3: So it takes.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 21: Time to unpeel, to peel all this stuff back, right?
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 21: And I sure pray we can hold the House and
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 21: the Senate because what President Trump's done has moved the
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 21: needle for our nation.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 5: All right, Chad Conley, we're going to have to leave
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 5: it there, folks. Be sure to check out his great website, faithwins.org. Chad,
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 5: keep up the great work. Be safe out there.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 21: God bless you, brother.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 6: Love you, man.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 3: See you soon.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 21: Keep praying.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 5: All right, there you go. Chad Conley doing the Lord's
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 5: work out there. and getting people engaged, may I challenge
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 5: you to do this? Go and talk to your pastor.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 5: And this is especially for my fellow Christians in the
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: Memphis area. Go and talk to your pastor and ask
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 5: him to talk about the election and talk about the issues.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 5: And again, this is not about turning your church into
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 5: a Republican Party headquarters or a Democrat Party headquarters. This
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 5: is about teaching Christians to vote their values. What does
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 5: the Bible say about the big issues of the day?
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 5: Vote accordingly. That's all you have to do. And if
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 5: we could just get some of our large megachurches involved
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 5: and focused on the idea of voting your values, we
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 5: would change this country in a heartbeat. No doubt about it.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 5: By the way, President Trump is absolutely right. Millions of

• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: Todd, I didn't even know it was happening.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 5: I didn't either. I'm like, wow, they're playing again? I
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 5: had no idea.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, seriously. Because the NBA just started. So it's like
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: one ends and one starts.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 5: So Ennis Freedom. Oh, by the way, I forgot to
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 5: tell you this. Ennis is going to be on the
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 5: show next week. Oh, nice. Yeah, I think next Tuesday.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 5: It's going to be a lot of fun.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 14: Wow.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 5: So anyway, Ennis Freedom went to the finals, and they
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 5: refused to let him in the arena in Atlanta. He
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 5: was banned.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: Wow. What did he do?
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, he's a guy. I think he wanted
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 5: to try out for one of the WNBA teams.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: They were scared he was going to get on the court.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 5: I guess so, yeah. So anyway, the gals, so they're
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 5: out there, and they start playing the national anthem. And
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 5: everybody thought this was like a mistake, but they just
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 5: like run off the court. court i mean they were
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 5: they were terrified before you could you know you know
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 5: how the song goes oh say can you by the
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 5: time they got to see they were out of there
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 5: and then it happened in game two so apparently they're
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 5: getting triggered by francis scott key and they're not sticking
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 5: around for the national anthem.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah no wonder nobody watches the wma.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 5: Oh my god they're just it's they get so triggered
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: you know first it was what sophie cunning or caitlin
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 5: clark And then Sophie Cunningham, whatever happened to Caitlin Clark,
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 5: by the way?
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 5: Did she finally, you know, a lot of these, a
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 5: lot of these female athletes are just throwing up their
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 5: hands saying, you know what, we surrender.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: And it's really unfortunate because that's, I mean, the entire
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: league is just coming after them. Like every single person
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: that plays in the game is like beating up on
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: her pretty much is ganging up on her. And then
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 3: the refs don't help her. It's just, it's terrible.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 5: And then you've got the fans. And so the fans,
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 5: because the women are very thin-skinned, and they don't take
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 5: criticism at all. So as a result, they've been trying
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 5: to fight and argue with the fans. And then the
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 5: fans would throw, what can we call them, male pleasure toys?
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: Sure, yeah.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: That's exactly what it is.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: Onto the court. Some of them are neon-colored.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 3: Most of them were neon colored, I think.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 5: I think you're right. So they added a net.
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 3: They added a net so that wouldn't happen again.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 5: And then you've got, well, you've got the male NBA
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 5: athletes that want to try out for the team because
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: they can't define what a woman is. So nobody knows.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 5: Right? So at that point, well, anybody can go and
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 5: try out. And now, over on the NBA side, you've
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 5: got LeBron James. I don't know if you saw this.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 5: We've got the video up on our website, ToddStearns.com. LeBron
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 5: James standing in line for the National Anthem, and he
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 5: was practicing his golf swing.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 5: And it wasn't just like a quick— it was like through
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 5: the end. It was very clear what he was trying
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 5: to do.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: That's upsetting.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, he needs to retire, first of all.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 3: But why? What are you doing, man? He hasn't done
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: this until all this controversy comes up. Now he's trying
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: to get more attention. I guarantee you is what he's
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 3: trying to do.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: He wants to be like Colin Kaepernick or something.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: He's trying to be relevant again.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 5: Unbelievable.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 3: No thanks.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 5: Grizzlies off to a good start.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 3: Big game last night. Very good. I didn't expect them
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: to win. Most people didn't.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 5: No, it's a shocker. So, all right, go Grizz.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: Go Grizz.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 5: All right, hang tight, guys. Hour three of the program
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 5: coming up. Don't go anywhere. In the meantime, head over
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 5: to ToddStearns.com. Read our stories. Watch our videos from the WNBA. Unbelievable.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: Broadcasting coast to coast and border to border from Memphis, Tennessee.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 5: That's us. That's right.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 4: I love this American ride.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: Todd Starnes.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 5: Well, we got a note from Carolyn, or a call, rather,
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 5: in the break. And she asked a question. By the way, hello, everybody.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 5: I'm Todd Starnes. Hour three of the big show with you.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 5: Great to have you along for the ride. And Carolyn said, Todd,
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 5: what is it that, how do Muslims, what was the
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 5: exact phrasing there, Dylan? Do you want to know what
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 5: Muslims thought about gay people?
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 3: She asked if they acknowledge gay people.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 5: Do they? I think they do acknowledge gay people right
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 5: before they toss them over the side of the building.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah. They acknowledge them.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's the acknowledgement. No problem there. And
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 5: Carolyn raises an interesting point because you have a lot
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 5: of these woke white women of the Lebanese persuasion, and
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 5: they're out there and they're marching alongside the Muslims, and
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 5: the Muslims don't want to have anything to do with them.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 5: They really don't. So I would just be very, very careful,
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 5: all of you LGBT folks out there, And be careful
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 5: who you associate with. And if you're invited to a
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 5: rooftop party, I would politely decline that invitation. I'm just saying.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 5: By the way, I had to– Dylan, this is a
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 5: terrible story. So when I last left you guys, I had–
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 5: my laptop died. It expired after like six years. I
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 5: think it's six years old. And the screen just went kaput.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 5: And everything was green, and then it was gray, and
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 5: then it was black. And so I had to get
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 5: a new laptop. And I thought, oh, boy. So I
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 5: thought I would go down there and just kill two
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 5: birds with one stone and get the new iPhone while
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 5: I was down there because I've got, what, iPhone, what
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 5: is it, 13? You have the grandpa iPhone. Grandpa.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: Does it take pictures?
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 5: It does take pictures. Wait a second. It's an Etch-A-Sketch.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 5: That's what it is.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: It's a flip.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 5: No, it's not a flip. Are you telling me it's
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 5: a grandpa phone? I have a grandpa phone? Is that
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 5: what the staff says?
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: They come out like every single year. If you don't
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: get one, like within two years of the new ones,
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: like it's just, they try to kill the phone is
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 3: what tried to happen.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 5: So first of all, the Apple, this is terrible. You know,
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 5: they call them geniuses. I'm not too sure there. I'm
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 5: not too sure about that.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 14: Hmm.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 5: So you sign in, and you have to go. And
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 5: it's not like you go in and buy your laptop
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 5: and then go home. They have to transfer everything over
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 5: for you. And so that process took at least five hours.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 5: So when I left you guys, the sun was beginning
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 5: to set, and it was still transferring stuff over. And
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 5: so the guy says, the genius says, you know, there's
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 5: probably a good chance that everything you really need has
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 5: been transferred over. And I'm like, how do you know that? And,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 5: of course, he didn't know that, so I didn't want
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 5: to stay there for another couple of hours. So the
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 5: genius disconnected it, and I get home, and, of course,
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 5: it did not transfer everything over. And so now I've
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 5: got to figure out how do I get everything from
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 5: my old laptop onto my new laptop.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: He just wanted you to leave.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 5: That was it. You know what? That's it. It's kind
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 5: of like when you eat at a restaurant and you
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 5: finish your meal, and even though you leave a good tip,
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 5: they still want you to leave.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. it's not the same thing as going in
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 3: the store at 9 p.m when they close at 9
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 3: 0 5 because you went in early enough for them
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 3: to fix.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 5: 2 30 in the afternoon 2 30 so and and
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 5: the the laptop was like almost 1700 dollars.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah so i didn't get the iphone No, that's another $ 1, 700,
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: by the way.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 21: It is.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 5: It's pretty expensive. Unbelievable the amount of how much it costs.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 5: So anyway, I've been trying to– I feel lost is
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 5: what it is. I just feel lost right now. And
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 5: I can't figure out how to get the– so I've
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 5: transferred everything. So I've transferred enough over. So I was
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 5: able to get my Google Chrome up. But I wasn't
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 5: able to get my messages. So now when I'm messaging people,
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 5: just their number shows up and not their name. So
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 5: I can't– I don't know what I've done with my contacts.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 5: And I don't know if I need to turn my
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 5: laptop over to Ian and just have him to fix it.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 3: Probably. It'll take probably less than five hours for Ian
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: to fix it.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 5: It'll take like three minutes.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, probably.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 5: Unbelievable. And then, so I'm trying to get something on
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 5: my iPhone, and I still haven't been able to figure
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 5: out how to disconnect the– I've got all these layers
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 5: of security. And so I made it simple, so I
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 5: just have to show my face. But here's the problem.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 5: When I don't have my glasses on, it doesn't recognize me.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 8: Oh, no.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 5: How is that possible?
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Todd.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 5: Do my looks change that dramatically?
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. I don't know. Maybe your
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: phone is that old. It's just it doesn't have the technology.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 5: It's horrified. You know, I mean. Your phone's scared of you. Yeah,
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 5: it starts to, like, vibrate, and you're like, oh, my God,
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 5: what is that?
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, the emergency services. Exactly. Well, I hope everything gets
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 3: worked out, Todd. I don't know. I don't know what's happening.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 5: It's a little frustrating.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: Your laptop does look pretty sleek, though. I saw it.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 3: It's nice.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 5: It is sleek.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 5: I wanted to get the– I got the silver the
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 5: last time, but this is more of the slate, whatever.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: It's like matte black.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 5: It's cool. It's really cool, yeah. And it's a larger screen,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 5: which is nice. So I can do multiple things on it.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 3: Very cool.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 13: Anyway.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 3: You're hip. You're almost– actually, you're like halfway hip. Now
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 3: you just need the phone, but you've got to save
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 3: up maybe. I don't know.
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 5: All that, yes. We'll start a GoFundMe.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 3: Todd Starnes GoFundMe.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 5: Goodness gracious. All this technology, but everything starts breaking down.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 5: So the reason why I needed my phone is because
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 5: the battery, I'm like, I'm really charging this phone more
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 5: than I usually do. So the phone, the battery life
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 5: is at, oh, this is the other thing. It's like 70%.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 5: And if you don't have AppleCare, then you may as
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 5: well just buy a new phone because that battery apparently
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 5: costs a lot of money.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 8: Yep.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 3: The battery life only lasts so long.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 5: Can we just go back to the old days where
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 5: you had a phone on the wall and you had
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 5: a cord and you didn't have to worry about people
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 5: calling you when you're out walking or you're at the restaurant?
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 5: We had something called a voicemail machine and people could
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 5: call your landline and you were done with it.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 3: We might. I mean, you know, Gen Z loves the
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: vintage stuff. So they might, we're going back to flip
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 3: phones already. So we might as well just go back
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 3: to the landlines.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 5: I just, you know, I just wonder, would we be
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 5: a better society if we went back to the landlines?
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 3: Yes. Already. Yeah.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 5: Where telephones had their place. You know, you never, and
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 5: you would never call during dinnertime. If you did call
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 5: in dinnertime, it went straight to the voicemail because you
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 5: weren't allowed to get up from the table and answer
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 5: the phone.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: Limited access to the internet. These are good things.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 5: Remember, you don't remember this. Correct me if I'm wrong,
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 5: old timers. There were two phone colors. It was sort
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 5: of like you had the olive green and then you
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 5: had the pale yellow. I think those were the two
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 5: phone colors you had. And I let you know that
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 5: because my mom wanted the olive green because that's what
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 5: the refrigerator and stove were. She wanted a color coordinator.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 3: Was there only two colors back then? What was going on?
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 5: I think so. I'm trying to remember. Somebody will correct
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 5: us if I'm wrong here, but I seem to believe
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 5: there were only two phones and basic colors, and then
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 5: you probably had to pay for extra colors.
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 3: What a time to be alive.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 5: Those are the good old days.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, apparently.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 5: Because, again, when you were out, you didn't have to
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 5: worry about all the distractions. You didn't have to worry
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 5: about any of that stuff.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: And your parents trusted you to just go outside and
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 3: be back by dark because that's literally what you did.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 5: No, it wasn't about trust. They kicked you out of
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 5: the house.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: They wanted you.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 5: Do not come back.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 5: Because mom had to watch, you know, your mom had
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 5: to watch her shows.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 3: Of course. Yeah. Of course.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, you had, you know, The Price is Right.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 5: That was when Bob Barker was there and he was,
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 5: you know, having affairs with all the beauties.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 5: The Showcase Showdown, and then you had the soap operas.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 5: So mom loved General Hospital. That was her go-to soap
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 5: opera back in the day. But yeah, there was none
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 5: of this. The only time the kids actually got to
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 5: watch TV was on Saturdays. We got to watch cartoons,
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 5: and that's back when they were like good cartoons, like Scooby-Doo.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 5: You had the Laugh Olympics, the Flintstones. Those were the good,
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 5: those were the And I'm talking about Scooby-Doo before they
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 5: brought the little Scrappy-Doo in. That was when they jumped
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 5: the shark.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 3: They did make Scooby-Doo woke. I forgot about that. I
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 3: hated that.
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 5: The Jetsons. You had that. Oh, was it Bullwinkle and Rocky?
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 5: That was a fine show.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 3: I liked Tom and Jerry. That was like my old
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 3: kids show. For me.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 5: Oh, Tom. Those were great. I mean, those are some
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 5: of the classic cartoons that I don't even... I saw
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 5: a Tom and Jerry once where they put like a
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 5: warning label. Violence.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. That's like the least violent. Well, there is violence,
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: but in terms of cartoons from nowadays, it doesn't get
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 3: any cleaner than that.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to remember. I'm sure people can remember their
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 5: favorite cartoons as kids growing up.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: Pink Panther. That's another good one.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 5: That was a little high. So I always thought of
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 5: Pink Panther as highbrow. And I never did like the
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 5: theme song.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 3: Okay. Interesting. That's a hot take because I loved it.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, it's an intellectual cartoon. And same thing with like, oh,
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 5: what was it? Hong Kong Phooey.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 5: You know, Grape Ape. Oh, Jabber Jaws. He just had
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 5: like this voice. I'm like, wow. You would think a
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 5: shark would have a deeper voice.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you would.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 5: Jabber Jaws.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 3: I never watched Jabber Jaws. I don't know.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 3: What is it?
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 8: Mr.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 5: Magoo. These are some of the classics. And oh, oh, oh,
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 5: Yogi Bear.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 3: I watched some Yogi Bear.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 5: Hanna-Barbera. Those were the best cartoons, like the Hanna-Barbera series.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 5: Love that stuff. What were we talking about?
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 5: So on Saturdays, that's all we could watch were the
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 5: cartoons that And wrestling, because in Memphis, on Saturdays is
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 5: when you had the live wrestling on Channel 5.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. And I grew up watching the WWE, which
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 3: had Jerry the King Lawler as the announcer at that time.
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 3: So I always tied it back to Memphis, and they
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 3: always made a big deal about that.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 5: Oh, you had Lance Russell and Dave Brown. Dave Brown
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 5: was our weather guy, but he was also the co-host
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 5: on the wrestling desk.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: That's awesome. It's such a cool gig. That's cool.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 5: That's a great gig. Great gig. Back in the day.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 5: Any of you folks remember those days, the good old days?
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 5: Got a favorite cartoon? 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-5926. Let's go to Houston.
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 5: Tom listening to us on Patriot Talk 920. Tom, you
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 5: remember those good old days?
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, buddy, and I'm sorry I missed you. I'm pulling
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 2: into work right now. Okay, so you hadn't mentioned Speed Racer.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 5: Oh, go, go, go, Speed Racer. Yeah, that's a great one.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 2: Number five, coming at you. And you had mentioned the
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 2: Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 2: Now, I have a serious tip for you and anyone
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: else out there with their cell phones. The battery. I
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: carry a Samsung. And this is the model that was
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 2: right after they had the Samsung 7 that kept catching
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: on fire. I don't know if you remember that. But
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 2: it was related to the battery. And they have a
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 2: setting to where you can make it only charge to 90%
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 2: of the battery. And that saves your battery from going 100%
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: down to 20% and back to 100% and back to 15%
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: and then back to 100%. So under battery management or
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: whatever it is in your setting, you can tell it
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 2: you don't want.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 7: It to.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 2: Fully charge, and that will not stress out the battery.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 5: Is that right? Oh, that's good to know.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, you know, some of them sleep. We're old enough.
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: We got three or four things in our pocket. So,
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 5: True enough.
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I was really hoping to get there. I told
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 2: four or five of my friends to get there. yesterday
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 2: at the collector's firearms, and I hope y'all had a
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 2: great time, and let's go. Republicans, vote red until you're dead, baby.
• 1:28:35

• 1:28:38
  Speaker 5: tell you something. That is one of the the best

• 1:29:21
  Speaker 5: what's on your mind?
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 7: Well, I've been listening to you as I'm driving across
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 7: Kansas in your last segment. You were talking about Christians
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 7: and voting. And I'm a part of a new outfit
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 7: from Family Research Council out of Washington, D.C., a faith-based organization.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 7: We're starting chapters in every county called Pray, Vote, Stand
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 7: with the idea of making sure that you know your
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 7: Bible and you know your principles before you vote. And
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 7: then after that, you vote for the people that you
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 7: have in office that they will give godly direction.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 5: I love that idea, Ken. And Tony Perkins is a
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 5: regular guest on this program, and we love Tony and
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 5: Family Research Council. I'm excited to hear that you're starting
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 5: one there in Kansas, in your county in Kansas.
• 1:30:11

• 1:30:15
  Speaker 5: Oh, okay.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 7: We just started a chapter in, uh, Maricopa County, the
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 7: East Valley chapter. Um, I mean, just, I just got
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 7: my leadership packet last week, so we're just getting started.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 7: But the idea is to have a chapter in every
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 7: county of more than 3000 counties in the country. And, um,
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 7: we were committed to, to praying for our leadership and, um,
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 7: train before we vote.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 5: I love that, Ken. I thank you for calling in,

  Speaker 19: And you forgot one of my favorites when you're doing
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 19: the cartoons.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 5: Oh, which one?
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 2: Boy, I say, boy, you are a chicken hawk, and
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: that there's a chicken.
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 5: I see, I see, boy. Boy, you're talking about foghorn leghorn.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 10: That's right.
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 9: I see.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 5: One of the finest. You know, the Looney Tunes is
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 5: what you're talking about, and they don't come any finer
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 5: than foghorn leghorn or Yosemite Sam.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 17: And I remember Speedy Gonzales.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 5: Pepe Le Pew. I got to tell you, it was
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 5: the most unwoke cartoon series in the history of mankind.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 2: They were great.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 5: Oh, my goodness. Yeah, they don't make them like that anymore.
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 5: Now it's just a little bit too politically correct for
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 5: my taste.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 19: Yeah, me too.
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, and, John, what's really interesting, and I've
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 5: got to let you go, my friend, but I'll close
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 5: with this thought. What's really interesting about those cartoons, you
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 5: knew they were good because the kids would love them
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 5: for one thing. But the adults would love them for
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 5: the humor and a lot of the inside jokes that
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 5: maybe the kids couldn't pick up on. All right, hang tight.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 5: Got to take a quick break here, folks.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 2: 901-260-5926.
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 5: If you've got a favorite old school cartoon, give us
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 5: a call. Oh, remember Josie and the Pussycats? Oh, that
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 5: was a good one. We'll be right back.
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 20: All right.
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 5: Welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 5: Great to have you with us. I want to go
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 5: right away to our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line and say
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 5: hello to our good friend, Kyle Campbell, host of the
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 5: Politically Basic podcast. A great podcast. Kyle, hope you're doing
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 5: well out on the West Coast.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 22: We're surviving out here, Todd. It's raining. Wow.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 5: That's unusual for those parts. So glad to hear that.
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 5: It's always good to have a little bit of rainfall. Kyle,
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 5: I want to talk about politics. How are things going?
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 5: And do you think the Republicans are going to make
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 5: some inroads there in California?
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 11: We are firmly in October. That means October surprises. It
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 11: also means we start to get a little squirrely wondering
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 11: what's going to happen November 3rd. So we're within the
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 11: two-week mark and anything can happen.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 22: But I think the.
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 11: Republicans are actually looking stronger than they have in a
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 11: little while here.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 22: So I am encouraged.
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 11: I think that logic and reason is maybe popping its
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 11: head above the waterline here, but we're seeing a couple
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 11: of things crop up that are interesting. Some October surprises
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 11: that went a little haywire out there with Vivek Ramaswamy
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 11: and that ad featuring his opponent's mother, maybe not to
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 11: everyone's liking. We've got a few other things cropping up here,
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 11: really closely watched race in the Senate out there in Texas.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 11: So all kinds of fun things going on. But it
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 11: all boils down to everybody's got to get out and
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 11: vote no matter what, no matter who you are. If
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 11: you are eligible and registered, do it.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. And the interesting thing about the Ramaswamy ad
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 5: and the left is like, how dare you? How dare
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 5: you use a family member to attack your opponent? Well,
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 5: I don't remember anybody in the media or the Democrat
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 5: Party having an issue when Mary Trump hit the airwaves
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 5: attacking President Trump.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 22: Oh, 100%.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 11: I was just thinking of her. And that was my
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 11: reaction to that, too. You know, I know Vivek Ramaswamy.
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 11: I've met him several times and had some time to
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 11: talk with him. This isn't reflective of who he is
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 11: or his character. He's a man of great integrity, excellent values,
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 11: who cares a whole lot about About that state and
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 11: those constituents, his friends and neighbors.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 22: So I think this was probably, you know, boiled.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 11: Down to maybe some bad vetting or some bad media
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 11: department of a campaign who thought this would go well.
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 22: And it's not really landing with the voters.
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 11: But you're right. It's highly hypocritical for the left community.
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 11: to point the finger and say that this was over
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 11: some kind of imaginary line, that they seem to camp
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 11: out on the other side of that line quite frequently.
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 5: I'm curious your take on what's happening in Minnesota, and
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 5: it certainly does seem that Minnesota could be up for grabs.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 5: Even Amy Klobuchar is putting some distance between herself and
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 5: Tim Walz with just the overwhelming amount of fraud that
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 5: has already been exposed. And now Ilhan Omar is who
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 5: says that to the best of her knowledge, she did
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 5: not marry her brother. How do you see all of
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 5: that playing out?
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 22: I think Tim.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 11: Waltz should have been booted the second all of that
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 11: fraud was exposed, and everyone who worked so closely with
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 11: him should have packed up and left at the same time.
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 11: It's a little late to be claiming that you didn't
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 11: have any responsibility in covering that all up when whistleblower
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 11: after whistleblower has come forward and said, They were all
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 11: in cahoots to cover up the fraud and people who
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 11: were planning to say something were threatened not to. So
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 11: that's problem number one in the leadership there. Problem number two,
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 11: Ilhan Omar is the gift that just keeps on giving.
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 22: Can you believe this woman?
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 11: She seems completely unbothered by the fact that she's being
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 11: investigated and potentially could have some pretty serious consequences. But
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 11: the fraud seems to be pretty rampant among the Somali
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 11: population and And she seems just fine with answering these questions.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 11: She doesn't also seem completely sure who she was married
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 11: to or what type.
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 22: Of marriage that was. It's just absolutely wild.
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 11: So I think something that's being brought up in this
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 11: that I'd like to see more of is vetting because
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 11: there are people getting themselves into political leadership and using
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 11: it as a cover, using it as a shield. to defraud,
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 11: to do whatever they want, and just thinking, simply because
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 11: I have this position, I am above the law.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 22: And she's a great example of that. I'd like to
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 22: see some real hard consequences come down on her.
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 5: I'm wondering, Kyle, when you look at all of the
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 5: polling data out there, of course, we had the was
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 5: it the Wedgwood poll, which turned out not to be true.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 5: It was a completely made up poll that many well-known
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 5: pollsters and pundits were using to basically determine how the
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 5: Democrats were doing out there. And now it turns out
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 5: to be a fraud. I say, and we've been telling
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 5: our audience for, gosh, the past two months, don't believe
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 5: any polling data or any news stories about that reflect
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 5: negatively on the Republicans that are coming out between now
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 5: and Election Day?
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 11: Well, color me not that shocked on this one. I
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 11: can absolutely see why. Again, we're back to vetting. We're
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 11: not checking. We're not doing our homework. So here comes
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 11: a new polling company. The name sounds established. Wedgwood sounds like,
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 11: you know, this is a legitimate thing. And they're putting
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 11: out this data that Now they're claiming it was a
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 11: social experiment. I don't know if I believe that 100 percent, Todd.
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 11: I think maybe they're trying to do a little last
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 11: minute covering up of what they did. But it's really exposing, again,
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 11: this kind of fragile system we have of using this
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 11: data and relying on it. We much too heavily rely
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 11: on polls, polls that do not weight their data, that
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 11: do not take large sample sizes.
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 22: And we make very large scale.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 11: Decisions based on who's running for high office in the land,
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 11: in the political landscape.
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 22: So I think this is a good wake up call.
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 11: I'm curious to see what's going to happen with Wedgwood
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 11: and if they are going to get busted in any
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 11: kind of way for doing this.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 22: But again, these.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 11: People who have a responsibility in pushing that data, these
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 11: media outlets or publications, This is time to check yourself
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 11: because you got wrecked pretty good on this one.
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 22: It's very embarrassing.
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 5: Well, and to take it even a step further, when
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 5: a poll does come out, okay, does the polling agency
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 5: lean left? Does it lean right? Do the candidates have any,
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 5: you know, do the candidates pay to have the polling
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 5: data done? Those are questions that sort of get overlooked
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 5: by the mainstream media. And I know here in Tennessee,
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 5: we had three different polls that came out. And all
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 5: three of them were coming from, one came from the Democrats,
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 5: one came from the Republicans, and one came from the Independent.
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 5: And each one had their own narrative to tell. So,
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 5: you know, you've got it to your point, Kyle. You've
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 5: got to do your homework on this stuff.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 11: Yeah, discernment, friends. I mean, it takes a little bit
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 11: of extra work. But we've got to lay that at
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 11: the feet of these legacy media outlets, these longtime publications.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 11: Check on what you are putting out there. Trust, but verify.
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 11: We've lost it completely. We've lost it with political parties
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 11: putting forward candidates. Look at Swalwell. Look at Graham Plattner.
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 11: Look at the vetting that was done there. And we're
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 11: doing the same thing with the data. It's too easy
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 11: to manipulate it. And there are people who exist in
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 11: this sphere who will manipulate it. So people need to
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 11: take that extra step. As you're saying, we've got to
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 11: check our resources here. And find those pollsters that you trust.
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 11: Find those websites. It's pretty darn easy to go Google
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 11: some of these sites that are trusted pollsters. And I
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 11: also think, Todd, and while we're on the topic, you
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 11: can't really trust the betting markets any longer either. Those
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 11: are too easy to flood and to manipulate. So discernment, friends,
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 11: that's my talking point at the high level there.
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 5: All right, Kyle, election day coming up. What's your encouragement
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 5: to voters, not just in California, but really across the country?
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 22: Thank you so much. to please go find it in
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 22: your mail pile.
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 11: Let it bore its little eyes deep into your soul
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 11: and make you feel super guilty until you fill in
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 11: those bubbles and drop it off.
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 22: And if you need help, reach out.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 11: There are tons of resources available for people who maybe
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 11: you don't know how to fill out a certain section,
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 11: but get it done.
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 22: Don't let it pass. Now's the time.
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 5: All right, Kyle, we're going to let you get back
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 5: to it, but we always appreciate your great analysis out
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 5: there on the West Coast. And folks, be sure to
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 5: check out Kyle's wonderful podcast, Politically Basic. Kyle, any big
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 5: interviews coming up you want to promote?
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 11: Well, I sure hope you're coming on my show soon, Todd.
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 11: We'll be reaching out to your people. We just did
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 11: finish up our wonderful series, Exposing Human Trafficking. And now
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 11: we're really just waiting to see what happens November 3rd.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 11: We will be interviewing some winners, hopefully not too many
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 11: losers on the side that we're hopeful for. So it's
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 11: all politics all the time over here, and we're really
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 11: excited about it.
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 5: All right. Kyle Campbell, everybody, host of the Politically Basic podcast.
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 5: And we're going to take a quick break here at 901-260-5926.
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 5: This is The Todd Stern Show. Oh, my gosh. Dylan,
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 5: I'm about to get myself in trouble here. Because I don't,
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 5: you know, I live in a nice community. It's really
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 5: not as conservative as I thought it was. It's called Germantown, Tennessee.
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 5: It's a suburb of Memphis. And there's a lot of
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 5: wokeness in the school system there. No doubt about it.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 5: So anyway, I vote and here's, you know, I vote
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 5: for the Republican nominee and we have partisan school board races.
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 5: And so I voted for this one candidate. Her name
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 5: is Vicky Gandy. That's who I voted for because she
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 5: was the Republican nominee. I'm catching more hell than, you know,
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 5: when I supported Donald Trump, I'm getting more hell from
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 5: the people of Germantown for voting for freaking Vicky Gandy.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 3: There are a few Karens in Germantown.
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 5: No, there are like a thousand Karens in Germantown. So
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 5: her opponent is someone named Joy. I've never met this woman.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 5: I'm sure she is a lovely person. She's a member
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 5: of the PTA or whatever. I have no doubt that
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 5: she is a fine, upstanding citizen. But her supporters are
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 5: downright triggered. And I'm getting all of these messages now.
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 5: How dare you? How dare you vote for somebody that's
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 5: not joy? You have no joy in your life. I'm
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 5: not kidding you. It's that level of insanity. And I'm like, people,
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 5: just chill out. It's a freaking school board race. Live
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 5: your life. Breathe.
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 3: It's very passionate times, Todd.
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 5: You have no joy. I just can't. And now I'm getting–
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 5: so I'm like in the commercial break. I'm getting all this.
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 5: And so the woman claims to be a Republican. Okay,
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 5: so I just asked a simple question. So why didn't
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 5: she run as a Republican?
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 3: That's fair enough.
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 5: How dare you? How dare you ask that question? I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 5: Back up, lady. Just chill out. But we got the–
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 5: We have the magenta-haired crowd in Germantown now. So a
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 5: part of me just wants to tell them all to
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 5: take a flying leap. But I think I'm too nice
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 5: to do that.
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 3: I think you should go for it, Todd.
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 21: I don't know.
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 5: What's the worst thing that could happen? Here's the thing.
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 5: I do care who you vote for. I want you
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 5: to vote for somebody who's not going to put us
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 5: all in gulags. But why the hell do I care
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 5: who you vote for? That's between you and God. So
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 5: why are you messaging me and why are you lecturing
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 5: me about who I'm voting for?
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 3: You make a lot of good points here.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 5: Bunch of woke libtards in my neighborhood.
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 3: It's a slow day in Germantown, Todd. What do you
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 3: want us to do?
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 5: This has been going on for weeks now.
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 3: Weeks.
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 5: I think I'm probably exploding here.
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I can tell.
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 5: You know, it's hard to have freaking joy when you
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 5: got people out there screaming at you for not voting
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 5: for Joy.
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 3: Joyless Starnes.
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 5: Who I'm sure is a very nice person. But you're
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 5: making it hard for me to like you when you've
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 5: got your people out there in my face. I literally
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 5: am going up to vote on the first day of
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 5: early voting. And they shove all this information in front
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 5: of you. And I'm like, look, I don't need this.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 5: I'm going in to vote. Just please stop. But you've
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 5: got all the candidates out there. They're doing their thing.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 4: Whatever.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 5: Whatever. And they said, who are you voting for for
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 5: this elderly lady? You know, you got to be nice
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 5: to the old people. And who are you voting for?
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 5: And I said, oh, I'm voting for the Republican. Well,
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 5: my person's a Republican. And I'm like, okay, okay. Chill, lady.
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 5: Just chill.
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 3: Sounds like a hoot.
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 5: I mean, you don't want to get the old people
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 5: riled up. They're going to keel right over.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah. You don't want the wooden canes to come out.
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 5: We've got joy. And I'm like, okay, I believe you.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 5: You just don't know. These people are insane.
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 15: Wow.
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 3: And here's the thing.
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 5: Vicki Candy is a dear friend of mine. And, you know,
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 5: I've known her for years. And, you know, this other person,
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 5: I've never seen them at the Republican gatherings. You know,
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 5: the volunteer stuff. I was.
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 3: Trying to do your duty. Not trying to catch straights.
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 5: It's going to be a four Dr. Pepper day. I'm
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 5: just telling you. Let's go to Jack in Gainesville, Georgia.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 5: WDUN wants to weigh in on cartoons. Jack, what's on
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 5: your mind?
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 9: Hey, I didn't hear it mentioned, but my favorite from
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 9: WB was the Hoghorn Leghorn.
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 5: Oh, I see, I see. I've got joy down deep
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 5: in my heart, I see.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah, he was pretty funny. And then you mentioned
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 9: Rocky Bullwinkle. They had the.
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 6: I'm.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 9: Sorry, I went blank. But anyway.
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 5: Boris and Natasha, right? They were the Russian spies.
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 9: Uh-huh. And they had George of the Jungle and a
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 9: couple other cartoons that I can't think of right now.
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 9: But did you see any of the live-action things that
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 9: were programmed for us, like Sigmund the Sea Monster, the
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 9: Cross Brothers, and there was Dr.
• 1:49:01
  Speaker 7: Shrinker, and then.
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 5: Was it... Oh, Puffin stuff. Yeah, one of them really
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 5: creeped me out, and I can't remember which one it was,
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 5: but do you remember Land of the Lost?
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 9: Land of the Lost, yeah. Marshall, Will, and Holly.
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 6: Oh, wow.
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 5: Those were good shows back in the day, Jack.
• 1:49:20
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 9: The HR and Puffin stuff, I think those guys were
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 9: maybe Puffin stuff.
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 5: No doubt about that. Maybe I need to. Maybe then
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 5: I'll have some joy in my life. All right, Jack.
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 5: Appreciate the call. Nice. I think I finally just exploded.
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 5: I've had enough.
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're tying everything back.
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 5: I've had enough. I don't care who you vote for,
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 5: and don't you tell me why. Again, why would you
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 5: do that? Who do you think you are to go
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 5: out and say something like that?
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's fair enough.
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 5: I need a drink. Let's go to Ron in Salem, Oregon. KYKN. Hi, Ron.
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 5: What's on your mind?
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, brother.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 17: God bless Marsha Blackburn. I hope she gets elected in
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 17: your state. And I'm going to tell you right now,
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 17: I got five of them and one special one. Let's
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 17: start with Kimber the White Lion, with Daniel Baboon as
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 17: his guide, as a young lion that's overseeing the kingdom.
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 17: Let's start with Felix the Cat and the Magic Bag
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 17: of Tricks, baby.
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, Felix. That's old school.
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 17: Okay, then we go through and we go with Popeye
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 17: the Sailor Man.
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, was it Brutus or Bluto?
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 17: You have both of them, Brutus, Bluto, and Olive Oil.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 5: Oh, Miss Olive Oil.
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 17: Yes, Portable Oil, I'll be. But the one that's really
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 17: going to get you, and I know Dylan, and if
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 17: Dieter was there, it's their generation. I watched it 20
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 17: years ago when my godson was learning how to ride bulls.
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 17: He's now in PBR. And he's doing great for the
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 17: last five years, almost $ 700, 000. But to make a long
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 17: story short, there was a cartoon. It had Ed Asner
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 17: as the rich white guy. It had Gary Anthony Williams
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 17: playing this guy. My name is Uncle Ruckus. No relations.
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 17: The Boondocks.
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 5: The Boondocks.
• 1:51:15
  Speaker 17: That is so funny. To me, it was on Cartoon Channel,
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 17: you know, at night. But you had Grandpa played by Mr. Witherspoon,
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 17: who played Grandpa on that, who played on Friday. I mean,
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 17: and then you had Ed Asner's son with French Braids, Blonde.
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 17: You had Samuel L. Jackson playing Jim Rummy.
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 5: Oh, you got to love Samuel L. Jackson. Ron, look,
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 5: the music is going to cut us off here, but
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 5: thank you for those great suggestions. All right, folks. Hey,
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 5: open line Friday tomorrow. Going to be a lot of fun.
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 10: All right.
