"Paris is the Future" (FTTxJT Mon 101926 hr3) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: This is Independence from Virginia, again, first thing today, by
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Joe works at a steel mill, works damn near every day.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Leaves for work when the sun comes up, drops a
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: kid to school and on the way. Joe has everything
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: he dreamed of, all the treasures that he needs. No
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: wonder Joe's always smiling, he only.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Aims to please you.
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: Thank you for letting me be of service to you
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: this morning. So we bask in the amplitude or frequency
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: modulation wherever you may be. And it's really, it's about
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: how the news of the day is impacting you. And
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: even when it's something as abstract as the riots in France,
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: it does. And I want to hear from you because
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: you are the most local, most importantly local news aspect
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: of the radio station. I guess this is how I
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: wanted to portray it to you. I'll tell you what
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: went on last night in case you hadn't heard. Things
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: that you may not have heard, perspectives you may not
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: have grasped. This coalition of the damned in France, text
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: message here from here in Virginia. What is happening in France?
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: What results from a demo crazy? Well, democracy, yes, is
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: a big part of it. Remember, all good dictatorships begin
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: with that one last election. That one last moment where
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: everyone's like, yes, I want to vote for fairness. I
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: want to vote for equity. And then the rifles start
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: showing up and equity is driven by taking your stuff
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: and giving it to other people, mostly to the government.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: And then the government will give you what they determine
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: is your value rather than allowing the marketplace to do that.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: And this is what's fascinated me for some time about
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: the way we let this happen. That somehow a government
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: bureaucrat who you've never met, but just imagine going to
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: the Department of Motor Vehicles is going to be more
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: capable of telling you what you deserve and or need
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: than you are yourself. Isn't that crazy making gas lit
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: kind of stuff? But that's how this always metastasizes. College
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: kids decide they're poor Islamists say, hey, they have a
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: protest going on. We can get in on that. And
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: they probably snicker at the LGBTQ4 Hamas t-shirts and such.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: But we'll get into that right here with our first things. 1,800 people,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: more than 1,800 people, under arrest in Paris this morning.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: 500 firefighters and police were injured. It's become, you know,
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: a quiet morning, but riots in Paris, Marseille, Lyon, and Bordeaux,
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: along with other cities in their periphery, smoldering this morning
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: after riots and fires. Meanwhile, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: has been excluded from a summit that's purported to be
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: held to end the war in his country. Russian President
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Vladimir Putin called for the meeting with the U.S. President
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: Donald Trump and Chairman Xi of China. Meanwhile, that Ukrainian
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: president who's been excluded from these summits spoke with U.S.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: envoys Witkoff and Kushner about restarting their own peace negotiations.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure with who, since Russia is meeting with
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: China about ending the war. Who knew China was even
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: involved in the war? Meanwhile, Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Prize laureate Maria Corina Machado accused Alejandro Betancourt, a businessman
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: selected as a key partner of President Trump's Venezuelan oil agreement,
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: of obscene corruption. You may recall that this was a
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: little bit of what was alluded to in discussions last
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: week about phone calls and evidence to be A woman
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: drove a pickup truck into a soccer field during a
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: weekend youth game in Kansas, killing two people, injuring 10 others.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: She has been released without charges. The 34-year-old is pending
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: results of a tox scan and a medical examination of
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: her vehicle before determinations can be made.
• 6:07

  Speaker 11: You were strolling along in goodwill. When just past that
• 9:05
  Speaker 11: mid-century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them, nestled
• 9:09
  Speaker 11: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, yes!
• 9:15
  Speaker 7: Yes!
• 9:16
  Speaker 11: Your favorite half-breakfast pastry, half-all-day dessert food, made into your
• 9:20
  Speaker 11: favorite form of ear candy.
• 9:22
  Speaker 12: Oh, my.
• 9:24
  Speaker 11: Those bejeweled sprinkles have satisfied some unknown hunger within you.
• 9:27
  Speaker 10: Shh.
• 9:29
  Speaker 13: Do you smell that?
• 9:30
  Speaker 14: Shh.
• 9:32
  Speaker 11: That's the sugary scent of shopping success. For this is Goodwill.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: And with every item.
• 9:39
  Speaker 15: You buy, you fund local job training and more.
• 9:43
  Speaker 16: So go forth.
• 9:45
  Speaker 11: Bring home those donut earrings. And bring home so.
• 9:49
  Speaker 16: Much good to your community.
• 9:53
  Speaker 17: Goodwill.
• 9:54
  Speaker 11: Bring good home.
• 9:57
  Speaker 18: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 10:02
  Speaker 18: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 18: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 10:12
  Speaker 18: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 10:15
  Speaker 18: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 10:21
  Speaker 18: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 10:24
  Speaker 18: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:27
  Speaker 18: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:32
  Speaker 18: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 10:36
  Speaker 18: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
• 10:40
  Speaker 11: Eat better.
• 10:42
  Speaker 13: Get moving.

  Speaker 4: My name is Jim. I'm a veteran, and I lost
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: both legs in Vietnam. My victory was proving that a
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: disability is not a limitation.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I'm Julius. I'm a veteran. My victory was going from
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: homeless to home.
• 11:03
  Speaker 17: At DAV, we're on a mission, helping veterans of all
• 11:06

  Speaker 4: No word in the English language is less convincing. Then probably.
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: first date?
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 11:56
  Speaker 13: We'll probably stay together.
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: Probably?
• 11:59
  Speaker 20: It's been 23 minutes since I ate.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: I can probably swim.
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: Uh, you should wait 30 minutes.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, don't tell me what to do.
• 12:09
  Speaker 16: Cannonball!
• 12:11
  Speaker 22: Cramp!
• 12:13
  Speaker 16: I have a cramp.
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: I can probably hit the green from here.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: Probably....
• 12:23
  Speaker 16: Can I get a mulligan?
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: Ready to go?
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 12:35
  Speaker 20: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 12:39
  Speaker 20: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 12:42
  Speaker 20: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message
• 12:45
  Speaker 20: brought to you by NHTSA and the Ad Council.
• 12:47
  Speaker 19: You know the legal drinking age is 21. You may
• 12:50
  Speaker 19: also know this law protects teens. Find out more at DontServeTeens.gov.
• 12:56
  Speaker 19: A message from the We Don't Serve Teens program and
• 12:58
  Speaker 19: the Federal Trade Commission.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: We've cut the cost of radio listening by, hell, it
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: didn't cost anything in the first place. So let's say.
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: One million dollars.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:27
  Speaker 23: Oh, God.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: How racist is this song?
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: No, that's not a love song. That's racism. That's love
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: of racism. Minimum wage. I know what you're telling us
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: to do. Expect less. Well, that is sort of what
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: the World Economic Forum says. You will own nothing and
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: you'll have never been as happy. The argument being that
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: if they assign you a job, and assign you a
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: place to live. This addresses the angst that, what would
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: you say, casually, 10% of the population really is truly feeling.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: So in order to win this battle politically, they need
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: more people suffering economically. So when Joe Biden disgorged the U.S.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: Treasury into the American economy, he knew what was going on.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: And I know, I was like, he was... Maybe Valerie
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: Jarrett knew what was going on. But the Keynesian believes
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: that citizens with money in their pockets are prosperous and
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: can do things, whereas a free market capitalist knows that
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: money in your pocket is not. the thing. It's the
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: things of value that you have, and yours are different
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: than others. And part of, and I have to remind,
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: part of what's going on in France is this idea
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: of jealousy. I don't have what I feel like I
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: should have, so we're going to riot for it. And
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: it doesn't get better before it gets worse. It's the
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: other way around. The people who promote this want authority
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: over you so that they can move the scales of
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: currency around. But it's never about currency. It's your ability
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: to own what you want to. And the reason that
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: World Economic Forum-style socialism, you will own nothing and you'll
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: never be happier, comes apart because that may work for
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: the first generation, but then the next one says, ah,
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure. I think I'm better than that. If
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: you're really lucky, you're not in some place like India
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: where you're in a caste system, which means you're only
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: going to get so high. But it's not about the
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: dollars in your pocket. It's the value of what you
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: have and your liberty to choose what that is. Do
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: you own a car? Do you want to own a car?
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: Do you own a house? Do you want to own
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: a house? How do you afford these things? And in
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: a remembrance that most of the cost increases that property,
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: real property especially, has are driven by government regulations, just
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: like electric bills have gone up because of government regulations,
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: because of the Clean Virginia Act, 2020 and California's carbon
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: copy and all these things that are going to drive
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: up your electric bills. But it's not about the dollars
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: in your pocket. It's about the value of it. Good morning.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: You're on the air with Joe first thing this morning.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: Who's this?
• 17:18
  Speaker 24: Good morning, Joe. It's Joel.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, hey, Joel. How are you doing, sir?
• 17:23
  Speaker 24: I'm doing okay. I wanted to say this. It's all
• 17:27
  Speaker 24: about the toxicology report. You got all these different situations, right?
• 17:34
  Speaker 24: In France, you have it in Albania, Spain. You have
• 17:38
  Speaker 24: it across the United States in certain places. But the
• 17:41
  Speaker 24: difference is, to determine the toxicology, you know, they're waiting
• 17:47
  Speaker 24: on the sad results of this lady hitting, I guess
• 17:50
  Speaker 24: it was an adult and then a young child. And
• 17:54
  Speaker 24: those take up to maybe... two to 10 hours, but
• 17:58
  Speaker 24: most of them can be done right away with the
• 18:00
  Speaker 24: essential intoxicants. But we have the intoxicants exposed on TV
• 18:06
  Speaker 24: and I'm sure other broadcasts with France and Spain and
• 18:10
  Speaker 24: Albania and things within the United States. But look at Poland, right? Poland,
• 18:16
  Speaker 24: they've had some unrest, but they take care of it
• 18:19
  Speaker 24: right away. They don't allow people to cross their borders.
• 18:22
  Speaker 24: They're not being cruel. They shoot people. I don't think
• 18:26
  Speaker 24: that's inhumane, but you don't hear about any Muslim or
• 18:31
  Speaker 24: Christian protests. They may demonstrate. They may come out and
• 18:35
  Speaker 24: do something actually peaceful, but they're not burning things down.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: They're not looting. They did in Paris.
• 18:43
  Speaker 24: Oh, I know, but that's the toxicology report that we're
• 18:46
  Speaker 24: getting from the news. It's not what the underlying problem is.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Oh, I get you.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: I see what you're saying. But the problem is that
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: there is a collectivist mindset, and now they've preyed upon
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: our young people who don't see the opportunities to have
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: the things they were promised to having, so they want
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: to hire the collectivist thug squad if he doesn't wind
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: up running in Congress. But the situation in France is
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: driven by income inequality. And this is what these kids
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: have been told is happening, that somebody who they don't
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: like makes so much more than them, and they're going
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: to drive it in. And that couldn't be far from.
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: What?
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: Tell me this stuff. It couldn't be further from you know,
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: what our economy is supposed to be, which is I
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: get to decide what value is. I get to decide
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: what my wealth is. And what you're seeing in the
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: French protests are people who, in many cases, never grew
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: up in that sort of scenario economically, knowing just essentially
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: at their bones, at their DNA level— that that's the
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: way it's supposed to be organized.
• 20:13
  Speaker 24: I've seen that, Joe, and what I've seen, you know,
• 20:16
  Speaker 24: from the, we used to say photogs, and I worked
• 20:19
  Speaker 24: at WLW, but I've seen from the photogs, and then,
• 20:23
  Speaker 24: of course, they edit, they can't give the, you know,
• 20:26
  Speaker 24: you have the A and B roles, and then you
• 20:28
  Speaker 24: get the C, but I've seen where there's a lot
• 20:30
  Speaker 24: of elderly people. They may not be running around and
• 20:34
  Speaker 24: picking up the canisters and throwing them, but you've got
• 20:36
  Speaker 24: to look at what happened to, as you would say,
• 20:40
  Speaker 24: the Utes in America. A lot of these 60s and
• 20:43
  Speaker 24: 70s protesters have taught their grandchildren to go, oh, no, no,
• 20:47
  Speaker 24: you just get out there, but you've got to be peaceful.
• 20:50
  Speaker 24: And yet they're underlying. The French have never really been
• 20:54
  Speaker 24: peaceful other than sending us this the Statue of Liberty and,
• 20:59
  Speaker 24: you know, proclaiming that, you know, how did you get
• 21:01
  Speaker 24: your liberty? They have Napoleonic law. So you're guilty before
• 21:06
  Speaker 24: you're proven innocent.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, there's that too. And in Louisiana, for sure.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: And in France.
• 21:14
  Speaker 24: But, you know, and then you have these Islamists out
• 21:17
  Speaker 24: there and they figure, hey, if I die or do
• 21:19
  Speaker 24: this for a cause, I'm going to go meet 75
• 21:22
  Speaker 24: virgins or whatever. And you have You have churches burning
• 21:26
  Speaker 24: down in that area. You have other people that are socialist,
• 21:31
  Speaker 24: as we would say, communist, kind of the same parallel.
• 21:35
  Speaker 24: But they think they're essential because they're for a cause.
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but you see, that's the thing. It's about protesting
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: rather than working for survival. And that's the sad— but this
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: is what we're headed towards. This is inevitable in the
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: World Economic Forum's future. is that there will be, unless
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: we start doing what Tehran does, which is hanging dissidents
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: in the streets.

  Speaker 26: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr.

  Speaker 13: It's on.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the talk media network.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: It is time for our sports director to take the
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: warmer filled gloves off and, uh, and, uh, come back
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: from the tailgate party. And I was talking to a friend, uh,
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: Mac and they were at, uh, I forget which NFL
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: stadium it was, but they were outside an NFL stadium tailgating.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: And I said, oh, they got tickets to the game.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: And he said, no, no, no. They wait till the
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: last minute and they go on one of these ticket
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: broker apps that helps fill the seats. And I had
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: forgotten that that's really what's saving Major League Baseball attendance
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: is that you can get $ 5 tickets for $ 135 seats.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: in the outfield if you wait until like five minutes
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: before game time. It's like roulette there. You're spinning, come on, 21,
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: come on, 21. But I guess for the right games,
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: you can pull it off pretty well because they got
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: tickets and they were in the stadium watching the NFL,
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: which is hard to do these days.
• 29:19
  Speaker 12: It was always amazing to me how many of those
• 29:21
  Speaker 12: guys could stand on the corner and I don't care
• 29:24
  Speaker 12: whether it was UVA or Ohio State or the Yankees
• 29:28
  Speaker 12: or whatever. They stand on the corner with about 40 tickets.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: In their hands.
• 29:32
  Speaker 12: Like where did you guys go?
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Amazing. Well, you know, we wouldn't one year, we were
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: able to go to the Indianapolis 500 and in the
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: Indy 500, the Indianapolis motor speedway is like a lot
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: of these old barnyards. They're right in the middle of neighborhoods. So,
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: you know, there's this giant racetrack, historic racetrack looming over
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: a bunch of, you know, single family, you know, one
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: story homes and convenience stores. And people are like, hey,
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: got tickets. Hey, got tickets. And the same thing happens
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: at the NASCAR races. Why are you asking me? I'm
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: in line to get into the parking lot. Why are
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: you asking me if I need tickets now? You should
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: be back at Kroger before I leave for the game saying, hey,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: you got tickets.
• 30:14
  Speaker 12: Around Lambeau Field, all these corporations bought houses.
• 30:20
  Speaker 23: Oh, wow.
• 30:20
  Speaker 12: And all these people sold, and I mean for a
• 30:22
  Speaker 12: pretty penny, right? And they turned the houses into sports bars.
• 30:26
  Speaker 12: And you can you can literally bar hop, but they
• 30:29
  Speaker 12: have like the upset and they have TVs in all
• 30:31
  Speaker 12: the rooms and bars in all the rooms.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: They have food in one of the rooms.
• 30:34
  Speaker 12: I mean, it is just true. And they entertain. So
• 30:37
  Speaker 12: it's a write off for the corporations anyway.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: So, you know, it's like that. Didn't they just have
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: that lawsuit settled with the guy who built bleachers? on
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: the top of the apartment house across from Rigley Field.
• 30:49
  Speaker 24: Right, right.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you going to do?
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: Anyway, get Sitco to sponsor a sign, and you'll be
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: in good shape. There you are. All right, so now
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: I'll get to.
• 30:59
  Speaker 12: The whole CFP24 thing in just a second.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: We'll leave a little room for that.
• 31:03
  Speaker 12: First of all, if you're a Giants fan.
• 31:07
  Speaker 12: I have no words. Fans went to the exits. Jameis Winston,
• 31:10
  Speaker 12: the second pick of the day.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Now J.J.
• 31:13
  Speaker 12: McCarthy's into the game, led several scoring drives. And, of course,
• 31:16
  Speaker 12: the Riders, after the Saints scored 34 straight against the Giants. Okay,
• 31:23
  Speaker 12: it was 10-0. Okay, 34 straight. And so now, naturally,
• 31:30
  Speaker 12: Coach Harbaugh was not in the best of moods.
• 31:32
  Speaker 23: Really?
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:33
  Speaker 12: The writer said, look, do we have a quarterback controversy here?
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: So do you consider that an open conversation?
• 31:41
  Speaker 27: Just like I said, I can't answer it now. It's
• 31:42
  Speaker 27: not even up for discussion or conversation right now. We've
• 31:45
  Speaker 27: got to go back and go to work. I mean,
• 31:47
  Speaker 27: I have no problem with Jameis whatsoever. I love the
• 31:50
  Speaker 27: way he competes. I love the way he fights. All
• 31:52
  Speaker 27: those kind of things. It was up and down today
• 31:55
  Speaker 27: for sure, but those things will all be decided not
• 31:58
  Speaker 27: 10 minutes after a game.
• 32:00
  Speaker 12: Yeah, if you think we're making a quarterback choice today,
• 32:03
  Speaker 12: like in the post-game press conference, when we just got
• 32:05
  Speaker 12: waxed with a running game.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: Some coaches would do that. I don't think anyone in
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: the Ryan family might have done that.
• 32:14
  Speaker 12: I mean, you know, I think their running game at
• 32:16
  Speaker 12: 34 yards or something like that, which I don't understand.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Well, that vaunted Saints game. That vaunted saints running defense.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: So anyway, all right.
• 32:26
  Speaker 12: Add to Phoenix. Cause I just want to touch on
• 32:29
  Speaker 12: this because Tyler Reddick won his sixth event.
• 32:31
  Speaker 16: Of the year.
• 32:31
  Speaker 12: Now he has a shot at the championship seventh and
• 32:34
  Speaker 12: just 56 points behind Kyle Larson. Larson just was a
• 32:38
  Speaker 12: no-show hit the wall. His car sucked. He ended up
• 32:41
  Speaker 12: of 34th. So anyway, your top seven, as far as
• 32:45
  Speaker 12: the chase now, Larson Bell, Briscoe, Hamlin, Blaney, Lugano, Redick.
• 32:50
  Speaker 12: And so Redick is just, you know, he was right
• 32:52
  Speaker 12: there with the win.
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: And of course he had won in quite some time.
• 32:55
  Speaker 12: So anytime these drivers win, it's a little refreshing.
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: This group never, never lost the motivation, never lost the drive.
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: To keep searching and keep trying to find ways to
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: make ourselves better and just be an all around better team.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: And just, just something about today. I had a really
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: good feeling. Practice was amazing. And we're back to victory
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: lane and first victory for oxygen energy too.
• 33:15
  Speaker 26: Cheers.
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: Okay. And he won like, what did he win? Like
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: the first five races of the season.
• 33:21
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 33:22
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 33:22
  Speaker 12: He was on a roll, you know, and it hadn't,
• 33:24
  Speaker 12: hadn't won and you couldn't, you know, so for some
• 33:26
  Speaker 12: reason you get, okay. The elephant in the room, and
• 33:30
  Speaker 12: let's go ahead and discuss and pick and everything, because
• 33:34
  Speaker 12: now it became the great debate all over the weekend.
• 33:38
  Speaker 12: I have seen more garage podcasts where guys just, they
• 33:42
  Speaker 12: put up brackets, they tried to figure out, because the
• 33:45
  Speaker 12: 2014 college football playoff becomes probably a reality. All weekend,
• 33:51
  Speaker 12: it was the handshake deal. It was a handshake deal.
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: We know how those are.
• 33:57
  Speaker 12: So anyway, the brief of it is the model is
• 34:00
  Speaker 12: 24 teams, 19 at large, four power, four conference champions,
• 34:06
  Speaker 12: and one of the highest ranked group of six champions. Now,
• 34:08
  Speaker 12: when everybody complained about this, when I say everybody, I
• 34:11
  Speaker 12: mean everybody. I got a Nick Saban by there. Everyone
• 34:14
  Speaker 12: said it. You shouldn't have 24, shouldn't have 24. Let's
• 34:17
  Speaker 12: slow the wagons a little bit. You know, you guys
• 34:19
  Speaker 12: were back in the 80s. You guys were all excited
• 34:22
  Speaker 12: when we went from 48 to 64 in the NCAA
• 34:25
  Speaker 12: basketball tournament. Now, granted, in football, I understand a Cinderella.
• 34:31
  Speaker 12: is going to be hard to find. Now, no offense, JMU,
• 34:34
  Speaker 12: Billy Napier, great team, great program. But if JMU and
• 34:38
  Speaker 12: Tulane show up in a 2014 bracket again and they
• 34:41
  Speaker 12: end up having to go to Oregon or go to
• 34:44
  Speaker 12: Ole Miss or where, you know, it's going to be tough.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Now, the 2014 bracket.
• 34:51
  Speaker 12: First of all, eliminates the conference championship games. Thank goodness
• 34:55
  Speaker 12: in December, because those are played in.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: Front of 4,000.
• 34:58
  Speaker 12: No, no, I'm, you know, but the ACC only, they
• 35:03
  Speaker 12: get 25, 30,000 for that.
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, is that correlation or causation? I mean, you could,
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: if you wanted to incorporate those and pump them up
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: again and say, listen, this is an automatic qualifier like it,
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: like it is in basketball.
• 35:20
  Speaker 12: Yeah, with the power four, you're going to end up
• 35:22
  Speaker 12: with probably the top four teams anyway because you've got
• 35:25
  Speaker 12: 24 teams, 19 at large, one of the highest-ranked group
• 35:28
  Speaker 12: six champions, then seeds one through eight, first-round buys, nine
• 35:32
  Speaker 12: through 16 will host opening-round games. So I think this
• 35:37
  Speaker 12: is– go ahead. Start in December because you know what?
• 35:40
  Speaker 12: eyes are going to be, these are going to be
• 35:42
  Speaker 12: still you, you, the bowl games are still going to
• 35:45
  Speaker 12: be involved. You got to decide.
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: You got to keep them happy.
• 35:49
  Speaker 12: New year's day is still going to be big, but
• 35:51
  Speaker 12: of course the voice of college football, the man with
• 35:54
  Speaker 12: a six part documentary, a guy who I admire from afar.
• 35:58
  Speaker 21: There's not 24 teams in the country that deserve to
• 36:01
  Speaker 21: be in the playoffs. There were 12 teams last year.
• 36:03
  Speaker 21: There were a couple of teams got in that probably
• 36:05
  Speaker 21: shouldn't have. So I don't think there's 24 teams in
• 36:08
  Speaker 21: the country that can win the championship.
• 36:09
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 36:11
  Speaker 12: But if a Vanderbilt gets in and makes a run,
• 36:15
  Speaker 12: they get in the quarterfinals or whatever it might be,
• 36:20
  Speaker 12: what it's going to do is also save a lot
• 36:23
  Speaker 12: of jobs.
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: But you've got a school like Wake Forest. Wake is
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: on a roll. Wake is 19th.
• 36:27
  Speaker 12: They've moved four spots up into the top 25 and
• 36:32
  Speaker 12: now fighting for a spot. So it's not unlike all
• 36:37
  Speaker 12: these people that say, oh, college basketball sucks in late
• 36:41
  Speaker 12: November with the Bahamas trips and the Maui trips and
• 36:46
  Speaker 12: all that in December.
• 36:47
  Speaker 23: No.
• 36:48
  Speaker 12: You know, have you looked at what's going to happen
• 36:51
  Speaker 12: in December in college basketball? There are terrific matchups all
• 36:56
  Speaker 12: across the board. And I don't care if they're in
• 36:57
  Speaker 12: the Bahamas or Maui or where. But you're seeing some
• 37:01
  Speaker 12: really good because they matter in December. And a field
• 37:04
  Speaker 12: of 68, I get it. College basketball is different. And
• 37:07
  Speaker 12: I also understand you won't probably find a Cinderella in
• 37:11
  Speaker 12: college football unless.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: It's a wake.
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: Or a Vanderbilt, or Texas.
• 37:16
  Speaker 12: But what you end up with are four lost teams,
• 37:19
  Speaker 12: and people are complaining, well, you'll have a four lost
• 37:21
  Speaker 12: team in the playoff.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, I don't care.
• 37:25
  Speaker 12: Because you're still going to have some really dream matchups.
• 37:31
  Speaker 12: We'll look at it for a long time, and once
• 37:33
  Speaker 12: this gets done, but I think the money was just
• 37:35
  Speaker 12: too good to turn down.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: Until the money goes away. This is always my contention.
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: It's all a money grab now. It's like, It's like
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: hair bands in the 1980s, live fast and leave a
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: good-looking corpse.
• 37:49
  Speaker 12: But we still listen to them, that's for sure.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: Well, it's just, you know, one of these days they're
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: going to be in front of Ted Cruz saying, please, sir,
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: can you fund her?
• 37:58
  Speaker 12: Can you bail out our guy?
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: I understand.
• 38:01
  Speaker 28: According to a new report from Discovery Education, 92% of
• 38:05
  Speaker 28: students say that engaging lessons make school more fun. And
• 38:08
  Speaker 28: more than 90% of educators said engagement is critical for
• 38:11
  Speaker 28: student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning, but gaps
• 38:16
  Speaker 28: remain about how to achieve, measure, and sustain students' interest
• 38:19
  Speaker 28: in the classroom. Although 63% of students agreed that students
• 38:24
  Speaker 28: are highly engaged in school, only 45% of teachers and
• 38:27
  Speaker 28: 51% of principals surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators
• 38:32
  Speaker 28: disagreed on the top indicators of engagement. 72% of teachers
• 38:37
  Speaker 28: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement.
• 38:41
  Speaker 28: while 54% of superintendents rate performing well on assessments as
• 38:45
  Speaker 28: a top engagement indicator. Also, two-thirds of students said they
• 38:49
  Speaker 28: believed that AI could help them learn faster, yet fewer
• 38:52
  Speaker 28: than half of teachers report using AI themselves to complete tasks.

  Speaker 26: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 39:09
  Speaker 26: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
• 39:14
  Speaker 26: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 39:18
  Speaker 26: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 39:23
  Speaker 26: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 39:28
  Speaker 26: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 39:33
  Speaker 26: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 39:36
  Speaker 26: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 39:40
  Speaker 26: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 39:42
  Speaker 26: your hands and feet. Well, our products Ultimate nitric oxide

  Speaker 29: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
• 40:37
  Speaker 29: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
• 40:42
  Speaker 29: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
• 40:45
  Speaker 29: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 40:49
  Speaker 29: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 40:53
  Speaker 29: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 40:57
  Speaker 29: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
• 41:00
  Speaker 29: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

• 44:37
  Speaker 4: And politically speaking, that's Marxism. You get everyone who doesn't
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: have what they think they should have. And this is
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: the sad state of conservative thought. That outside of places
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: like where you and I meet this morning, few people
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: will tell you the truth. If you feel like you
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: don't have everything you should have, a free market is
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: the way to do it. Don't go and try to
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: get a government official to do it for you because
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: it's not going to work out. And the riots you're
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: seeing in France begin with a seed planted in the
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: same place that it's been planted for years, this idea
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: that the government will take care of all of your
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: needs until it doesn't. And then where do you go? Well,
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: you go to the street and you say, damn it,
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: I want my needs met. And I'm not, I'm going
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: to burn this building down or I'm going to break
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: all these windows until I get my needs met. And
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: it doesn't happen. You get pandered to, and then you
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: get angrier and it just continues to unravel. And it
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: frustrates me that the conservative, the free marketeer, has done
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: such a bad job of narrative development. Maybe that's what
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: we need. We need better narrators, which is funny considering
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: how many hours are dedicated to conservatism in the spoken
• 46:03
  Speaker 4: word business. You'd think we'd have better, more articulate people
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: about how this works. And it's because we rely on
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: populism and democracy to decide these things. And so you
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: have panderers, and pandering doesn't lead itself to, hey, here
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: are the things you need to do to give yourself
• 46:29
  Speaker 4: better economic opportunities. They don't want to hear about it.
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: They want to take your stuff and give it to themselves.
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: And they will vote for the people who say they
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: will go do it. And the peril, of course, is
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: eventually it becomes obvious that that isn't working, so we're
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: going to take it by force. And your right to
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: own property, your right to own a business, not just
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: manage a business. And the French economy is such a
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: mess already, but it's heavily government dictated. It's as much
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: a World Economic Forum master's class as you could possibly
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: get in the real world. maybe Finland or Sweden, but
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: at the size factored out. And so while, yes, the
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: caliphate grabbed on to this protest, and where's the email
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: I got from Steve? Oh, there it is. Steve says, Joe,
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: what makes you think the caliphate didn't start these people
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: down their path towards these riots. Your commentary seems to
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: leave me with the impression that you think these college
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: kids started this protest idea and the Islamists said, oh,
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: this will be fun. What if the Islamists fomented it?
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: That's a.
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: That is, Steve, that is a very fair cop. And
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: I appreciate you listening out in San Bernardino and the
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: Inland Empire and just far enough west to get away
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: from some of the smog of craziness. I'm sorry, did
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: I say west? I meant east of L.A., speaking of L.A.
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: But that's a very real possibility because far be it
• 48:42
  Speaker 4: for somebody who wants to bring on the caliphate to
• 48:46
  Speaker 4: leave an opportunity behind. You don't have what you want? Well,
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: you know, let's burn some stuff down. Let's break some stuff.
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: Make them give us everything they want. And then, by
• 49:03
  Speaker 4: the way, can you vote for us in the next
• 49:05
  Speaker 4: regional election and we'll do it without having to break
• 49:08
  Speaker 4: all the stuff? Because the agenda is both physical and political.
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: The political is driven by the physical. Vote for us
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: or we are going to start breaking stuff again. That's
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: the implication of these riots. Vote for our candidates like
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: this mayor, Parisian suburb mayor, Sometimes violence is to be expected. Really? Wow.
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: He is like France's version of Zorhan Mamdani. And you
• 50:03
  Speaker 4: see the Chinese flags hanging in Paris. And they all
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: look at this like it's the failure of communism. No,
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: it is the final last gasp of communism sticking a
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: knife into capitalism, into free markets. And France was never,
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: France was never a free market democracy. And that's why
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: my point on their collapse is important for all those
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: who want the World Economic Forum to take over. because
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: eventually this will be what the World Economic Forum brings about.
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of historians who will talk about the
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: fall of the Soviet Union and how Gorbachev brought it
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: on because he tried to reform the unreformable, tried to
• 51:05
  Speaker 4: liberalize the Russian economy, and it blew up on him.
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying that that is wrong. I'm saying that
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: it can go the other direction as well. See, all
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: of these movements in the United States to create a
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: French-style government-regulated-but-everyone-is-happy economy is a fool's errand because this is
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: where we wind up. You do it on a global scale,
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: then you have the pain and suffering on a global scale.
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: So let's take the moment and realize and go, oh,
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: better not do that. And go back to the free
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: market principles that say, if you think you're worth something,
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: go get it. Decentralize. Demonopolize. And you can do it
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: really easy because it's not even like you have to
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: write new laws. You have to repeal old ones to
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: allow the markets to operate the way they were supposed to.
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: People in this town need this product. So we're going
• 52:24
  Speaker 4: to make this product. Why are we going to make it?
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: Because people need it. And we'll employ people who need it.
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: And we'll employ people who don't need it, but they'll
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: make it, and then they'll have money for the things
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: they need. I mean, it's a pretty simple system. It
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: has worked. But then people get jealous. That's why the
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: heavy seven is such an important list.
