- 0:16Speaker 1: We'll do it live.
- 0:17Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. We'll do it live. First thing
- 0:19Speaker 2: today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 0:23Speaker 1: And we'll do it live.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Joe works at a steel mill.
- 0:26Speaker 3: He's damn near every day.
- 0:28Speaker 1: If anything's left running in the studio... It's for work
- 0:30Speaker 1: when the sun comes up.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Drops a kid to school.
- 0:33Speaker 1: It's going to be my mouth, okay?
- 0:35Speaker 3: There's everything he dreamed of.
- 0:37Speaker 4: All the treasures that he needs.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Scramble around here.
- 0:40Speaker 3: No wonder Joe's always smiling. He only aims to please you.
- 0:46Speaker 3: Let me be your Joe.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Something's running. We can't do anything.
- 0:50Speaker 5: I want to be your Joe.
- 0:53Speaker 6: That's it.
- 0:54Speaker 1: From now on, policy in the Joe Thomas Studios. The
- 0:57Speaker 1: only thing that's left running is my mouth. Okay? 434-882-4217
- 1:04Speaker 1: is the phone number. Emails come in to JTInTheMorningRadio at gmail.com.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Is this one from... Oh, first let me give acknowledgement,
- 1:13Speaker 1: kudos to Charles... who correctly remembered, are you smarter than
- 1:18Speaker 1: a talk show host? Paula Dean was the chef I
- 1:23Speaker 1: was trying to think of when Clark was asking me
- 1:25Speaker 1: about biscuits. But then Terry texts into 434-882-4217. She said, okay, now, Joe,
- 1:33Speaker 1: I don't care about what your roster of events was.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Now you have to tell us who Biscuit is.
- 1:39Speaker 6: Biscuit, on this....
- 1:43Speaker 1: And we celebrate our great pumpkins. And believe me, I've
- 1:48Speaker 1: seen some great pumpkins, but usually not anywhere near a
- 1:51Speaker 1: pumpkin patch. Biscuit is a beagle. As far as anyone
- 1:57Speaker 1: can tell, Biscuit received his voting rights restored by the
- 2:03Speaker 1: governor of Virginia just a little while back. A letter
- 2:07Speaker 1: was sent to Biscuit's former address Biscuit the Beagle had
- 2:12Speaker 1: an address and the resident of that address longtime resident
- 2:19Speaker 1: of that address discovering that Biscuit Rigsby had received his
- 2:24Speaker 1: voting rights back after finishing his sentence for some felonious
- 2:32Speaker 1: affair would now be allowed to vote in the 2026
- 2:36Speaker 1: election and the only Biscuit that had ever resided at
- 2:39Speaker 1: that address was a Beagle named Biscuit, whom the resident
- 2:45Speaker 1: had never registered to vote either, nor is he pretty
- 2:48Speaker 1: sure that the Beagle had ever been convicted of a felony.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Being a defense attorney, you'd certainly think he would have
- 2:55Speaker 1: been aware of such pursuits. So there you go. Now,
- 2:59Speaker 1: are you happy? You're happy. Now we'll get into the
- 3:02Speaker 1: coup d'etat in Poland coming up in a little bit
- 3:05Speaker 1: and a proof as to why our system is supposed
- 3:08Speaker 1: to work. and why the Democrats are going to look
- 3:12Speaker 1: at what's happening in Poland and say, oh, that's what
- 3:17Speaker 1: we need to do. In any event, though, let me
- 3:21Speaker 1: get our first things here. We've got you on the
- 3:23Speaker 1: phone as well. Meteorite discovered in the Sahara Desert says
- 3:28Speaker 1: there used to be water on Mars. Water is a
- 3:32Speaker 1: prerequisite for the development of life, or at least So
- 3:36Speaker 1: we believe, having only lived on this planet, we're not sure,
- 3:39Speaker 1: but on this planet, you have to have water in
- 3:42Speaker 1: order to be a life form. It wasn't recently, though,
- 3:47Speaker 1: before you start looking up Valentine Michael Smith in the
- 3:50Speaker 1: phone book, the water on Mars was more than 4
- 3:55Speaker 1: billion years ago, which, as folks in Washington said, billion?
- 4:00Speaker 1: That's not even real money anymore. U.S. Department of Justice
- 4:04Speaker 1: pushed Friday for a court order to isolate Alaskan ballots
- 4:08Speaker 1: to investigate possible voter confusion. The ranked choice voting election
- 4:14Speaker 1: coming up and going on up through Tuesday includes two
- 4:22Speaker 1: people named Dan Sullivan, in case you've been under a rock. Meanwhile,
- 4:27Speaker 1: The other Dan Sullivan, not the U.S. senator from Alaska,
- 4:31Speaker 1: the former teacher who was recruited, according to a report
- 4:35Speaker 1: in The New York Times, by the Democrat challenger to
- 4:41Speaker 1: the Senator Dan Sullivan and the Democratic Senatorial Committee, Daniel J.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Sullivan Jr., has taken a powder, as we used to
- 4:50Speaker 1: say in my neighborhood, has not been seen since Monday,
- 4:54Speaker 1: last week when he was seen boarding a flight to Anchorage.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Stephen Hubbard has been found. He's back in the United
- 5:02Speaker 1: States and visited President Trump in the Oval Office. He
- 5:05Speaker 1: is the retired teacher, 74-year-old, different teacher. You know, see,
- 5:09Speaker 1: retired teachers all do different things. This Michigan former teacher
- 5:13Speaker 1: was arrested by the Russian army and sentenced to seven
- 5:17Speaker 1: years in prison for their charge of fighting as a
- 5:20Speaker 1: mercenary for Ukraine. The humanitarian convoy of residents from the
- 5:27Speaker 1: evacuated Russian-controlled city of Oleshki have arrived in the Crimean
- 5:32Speaker 1: Peninsula from the Kherson region of Ukraine. This is part
- 5:38Speaker 1: of the ceasefire brokered by Melania Trump. And a judge
- 5:42Speaker 1: has told the Trump administration to stop telling people what
- 5:47Speaker 1: the law says regarding counting ballots from knowingly unregistered or
- 5:51Speaker 1: ineligible voters. His ruling will be challenged, and it was
- 5:57Speaker 1: in San Francisco, to be fair. Told you about gold
- 6:01Speaker 1: and silver. I'm going to tell you again, our friends
- 6:04Speaker 1: at JCSGold.com are going to be very busy on Monday.
- 6:08Speaker 1: Gold took a nosedive yesterday, down $ 145. 83, trading right now
- 6:12Speaker 1: at $ 3, 875.
- 6:12Speaker 3: 68.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Silver is down a similar $ 3.
- 6:13Speaker 3: 05 today.
- 6:25Speaker 1: To $ 49. 12. You can go to jcsgold.com and see those numbers.
- 6:34Speaker 1: I told you this when we were on location. I
- 6:36Speaker 1: was doing a lot of signposting yesterday. We have yard
- 6:39Speaker 1: signs all over the place. Not that I'm running for anything,
- 6:42Speaker 1: but I have yard signs all over the place announcing
- 6:45Speaker 1: that we've put our flagship station back on its broadcast frequency.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And so, you know, your shoulders get a little stiff,
- 6:52Speaker 1: knees get a little stiff. Sealy's CBD oil from the
- 6:56Speaker 1: Mesa Verde Hemp Farm. Oh, help me sleep last night.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Mesa Verde Hemp.
- 7:02Speaker 5: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 7:07Speaker 5: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
- 7:12Speaker 5: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 7:17Speaker 5: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 7:21Speaker 5: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 7:27Speaker 5: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 7:31Speaker 5: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 7:34Speaker 5: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 7:38Speaker 5: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 7:41Speaker 5: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,
- 7:46Speaker 5: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go
- 7:50Speaker 5: to TotalWellness.com. That's TotalWellness.com, where we are helping you to

- 8:05Speaker 5: optimized curcumin is one of the few bioavailable and highly
- 8:09Speaker 5: absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch.
- 8:14Speaker 5: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 5: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 8:24Speaker 5: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:28Speaker 5: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:32Speaker 5: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 8:39Speaker 5: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 8:43Speaker 5: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 8:47Speaker 5: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 8:52Speaker 5: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,
- 8:57Speaker 5: feel good, and enjoy total wellness.
- 9:02Speaker 7: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 9:05Speaker 7: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 7: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 9:13Speaker 7: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 9:16Speaker 7: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 9:21Speaker 7: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:25Speaker 7: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:29Speaker 7: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 9:33Speaker 7: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 9:37Speaker 7: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 9:42Speaker 7: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 9:46Speaker 7: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General, at oig.ssa.gov.
- 9:53Speaker 7: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Hi, everybody.
- 9:59Speaker 8: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
- 10:01Speaker 8: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 8: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 8: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:08Speaker 8: birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 8: who work hard to provide for their young. Or penguins,
- 10:15Speaker 8: who travel up to 500 miles to secure food for
- 10:17Speaker 8: their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump allows them
- 10:21Speaker 8: to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
- 10:23Speaker 8: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
- 10:26Speaker 8: the canines. We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home,
- 10:30Speaker 8: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life-saving
- 10:33Speaker 8: work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 1: Dogs keep us.
- 10:35Speaker 8: Safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
- 10:37Speaker 8: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 10:41Speaker 8: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 10:44Speaker 8: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
- 10:46Speaker 8: and help those in need. So please join me and
- 10:49Speaker 8: American Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all
- 10:52Speaker 8: the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go
- 10:55Speaker 8: to americanhumane.org to learn more. Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 11:01Speaker 9: Oh, yeah?
- 11:01Speaker 1: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:04Speaker 10: And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 11: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 5: Heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 1: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 8: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 11:15Speaker 9: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 11:18Speaker 9: somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 12: Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 6: Me too.
- 11:21Speaker 13: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 11:23Speaker 13: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

- 11:31Speaker 15: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 15: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 15: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home

- 13:12Speaker 2: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:19Speaker 6: When the clouds are gone And I'm all alone Playing
- 13:30Speaker 6: a sad song Now that the lights are gone Turn
- 13:34Speaker 6: them on again One more time for me, my friend.
- 13:49Speaker 17: I wasted my time, till time wasted me Never wanted
- 13:55Speaker 17: to go, always wanted to stay Cause the person I am,
- 13:57Speaker 17: I'm the poison of fate.
- 13:59Speaker 6: So I throw it away, all at better.
- 14:02Speaker 17: Speed Till I know I'm a knife, filled with unfinished
- 14:07Speaker 17: dreams I'm holding on tight, to a world known as
- 14:11Speaker 17: strength As they touch.
- 14:12Speaker 6: Me for years, I can.
- 14:14Speaker 17: Now, now understand.
- 14:17Speaker 1: On this Halloween morning, what character are you playing? Are
- 14:23Speaker 1: you a Fox News anchor? Have you had to figure
- 14:26Speaker 1: out a way to rewrite your character so that you
- 14:29Speaker 1: can make right with your parent company, your employer's contributions
- 14:34Speaker 1: to Hakeem Jeffries and something called the New Democrat Majority?
- 14:42Speaker 1: Those are awkward moments, and I've been there, and I
- 14:44Speaker 1: feel for you, player. Trust me, it's scary. But independence works.
- 14:50Speaker 1: We in Virginia thought of that idea. Unfortunately, we sold
- 14:54Speaker 1: it out in 1968 to the NAACP and the ACLU,
- 14:59Speaker 1: who said, you need to rewrite your Constitution. Thank God
- 15:04Speaker 1: they didn't take Article 1 out, which is our Bill
- 15:06Speaker 1: of Rights here. But yes, you'd be amazed how many
- 15:09Speaker 1: things you need the government's permission to do in the
- 15:14Speaker 1: state that invented the idea of we hold these truths.
- 15:18Speaker 1: to be self-evident. We'll get into what's going on in
- 15:22Speaker 1: Poland and what happens when someone else's constitution doesn't understand
- 15:27Speaker 1: checks and balances and leaves everything at the purview of
- 15:31Speaker 1: the president. For those who run around.
- 15:33Speaker 18: Saying, our president's acting like a dictator.
- 15:37Speaker 1: No, what's happening in Poland is what happens when people
- 15:40Speaker 1: act like dictators. And it's usually the ones that don't
- 15:44Speaker 1: have a mandate to govern. Although, you know, mandating is
- 15:48Speaker 1: something I understand has happened in the history of the
- 15:52Speaker 1: Oval Office. But that being said, what do they say?
- 15:54Speaker 1: One out of one out of every. Twenty five people is,
- 16:00Speaker 1: you know, no, it's one out of 10. And and
- 16:04Speaker 1: we've had 47 presidents do the math. Anyway, Joel is
- 16:08Speaker 1: hanging on the line. Yeah. Get that thought out of
- 16:11Speaker 1: your head, playa. Good morning, Joel. What's on your mind?
- 16:13Speaker 1: Happy Halloween, or as I like to call it, All
- 16:16Speaker 1: Hallows Eve. Hang on one second. Hang on to that
- 16:20Speaker 1: thought one second, Joel. Let me get line two is
- 16:22Speaker 1: ringing like a crazy man here. Good morning. Who's this?
- 16:26Speaker 1: Good morning, Joel. I'll tell you what, I'm going to
- 16:29Speaker 1: hang up and call back so Joel can have a
- 16:30Speaker 1: good call. Talk to you later.
- 16:32Speaker 7: Okay.
- 16:32Speaker 1: I wasn't going to, you know, short shrift Joel, but
- 16:35Speaker 1: that's okay. But, you know, Joel... Never mind, line two
- 16:39Speaker 1: is open again. But anyway, what was on your mind
- 16:42Speaker 1: this All Hallows' Eve?
- 16:45Speaker 9: Good morning. That could have been a ghost call.
- 16:48Speaker 1: No, no, it was a real person. I mean, I've
- 16:50Speaker 1: met him in person, as I have you. Not a prerequisite,
- 16:55Speaker 1: by the way. If you're sitting listening to this saying,
- 16:57Speaker 1: I always wonder, should I call Joe and make my case? Absolutely.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Just because I've met some of these people in person.
- 17:05Speaker 1: It's been a long process. I don't go around there
- 17:08Speaker 1: glad-handing saying, please listen to my show. I'm so sad
- 17:11Speaker 1: and desperate. If you do, you do. You get it,
- 17:14Speaker 1: you get it, and I'll keep giving it. So what's
- 17:17Speaker 1: on your mind, Joel?
- 17:19Speaker 18: I don't know.
- 17:19Speaker 9: I think that we should call for the Democrats, we
- 17:23Speaker 9: should call it What Do You Identify Day?
- 17:26Speaker 1: Because for them, every day is Halloween. Well, aside from
- 17:35Speaker 1: their scary policies, it is. Who are you playing today?
- 17:39Speaker 1: Have you heard the clip? There's a clip. And I
- 17:43Speaker 1: believe the RNC put it together. I have to go
- 17:51Speaker 1: pull it up. It is Abdul El-Sayed, the primary candidate,
- 17:57Speaker 1: versus Abdul El-Sayed, the general election candidate. taking 100 percent
- 18:03Speaker 1: diametrically opposed positions on like citizenship and immigration and the
- 18:12Speaker 1: Muslim Brotherhood and things like that, that he didn't take
- 18:15Speaker 1: when he was running against Mary Margaret Fisher or whatever
- 18:20Speaker 1: her name was, the one that got screwed over by
- 18:23Speaker 1: the phony election polls. Um, now he's taken diametrically opposed positions,
- 18:30Speaker 1: not 180 degrees, uh, but more like 520 degrees. He
- 18:34Speaker 1: just keeps spinning around. Um, it's, it's remarkable. It's like,
- 18:38Speaker 1: it's like Tonya Harding doing her triple axle.
- 18:43Speaker 9: Was that before or after the microphone was turned on
- 18:46Speaker 9: or purposely turned on?
- 18:48Speaker 1: I'm sure he'd claimed that I, I wasn't, uh, I
- 18:50Speaker 1: wasn't speaking on the record when I said that about,
- 18:53Speaker 1: you know, Jews or whatever. Um, So, yeah, they are.
- 18:58Speaker 1: This is part of the problem is everyone's playing a role.
- 19:01Speaker 1: But we have Republicans that are out trick-or-treating as populists,
- 19:05Speaker 1: trick-or-treating as Trump supporters. And I don't know if it's
- 19:12Speaker 1: why you called it out, but we brushed on the
- 19:14Speaker 1: subject on, I think it was Thursday morning's program, how
- 19:18Speaker 1: it took somebody as estimable, as powerfully well known as
- 19:25Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson to start the last new major political party.
- 19:30Speaker 1: And I still can't shake myself this feeling that once 20,
- 19:35Speaker 1: January 20th of 2029, um, is in the record books
- 19:41Speaker 1: and whether it's JD Vance or Marco Rubio or Abigail Spanberger,
- 19:46Speaker 1: you know, there's a scary story. Um, And your little dog, Beagle, too.
- 19:55Speaker 1: That whoever the next president is, Donald Trump will begin
- 19:58Speaker 1: the process of starting a third political party. And I
- 20:04Speaker 1: would love for him to pick up on things like
- 20:06Speaker 1: the 1929 Permanent Reapportionment Act Because I will guarantee you
- 20:11Speaker 1: that in an election that included Donald Trump's own party,
- 20:15Speaker 1: the Fabian Republicans and the Marxist Democrats, 80 percent of
- 20:22Speaker 1: the counties and the election districts in the unleashed new
- 20:28Speaker 1: districts would be Trump districts. His party would win those districts.
- 20:33Speaker 1: It would be like what's happening now. you know, in
- 20:36Speaker 1: British Parliament when the left or the right takes majority.
- 20:41Speaker 1: It would be stunning to see. It wouldn't be the
- 20:43Speaker 1: big cities, but you would see pretty much all that
- 20:48Speaker 1: red area in between the big cities vote for Donald
- 20:52Speaker 1: Trump's third party.
- 20:55Speaker 2: I think it would be good.
- 20:56Speaker 9: And I think the other thing, too, I wanted to
- 20:59Speaker 9: mention is, do you notice how new words are being created?
- 21:03Speaker 9: And I know Republicans try to do too, but let's
- 21:06Speaker 9: say like, you know how we'd say the homeless, the unhoused,
- 21:10Speaker 9: and all those terms come up with the Democrats. And
- 21:14Speaker 9: that's part of their unmasking, or is it masking, or
- 21:18Speaker 9: is it what you identify?
- 21:20Speaker 1: It's masking is what it is. You were right the
- 21:22Speaker 1: second time. But here's the thing about the word unhoused.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Unhoused has an implication different than homeless. Homeless infers the
- 21:34Speaker 1: idea that you had some role in it. Unhoused sounds
- 21:38Speaker 1: like you're a victim. Somebody hasn't housed you. Who is
- 21:42Speaker 1: the bastard that hasn't housed you yet? I'm serious, but
- 21:46Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons I rail against words like
- 21:48Speaker 1: that because it is meant to infer that the person sleeping,
- 21:54Speaker 1: the urban outdoorsman, is there because somebody screwed him over
- 21:59Speaker 1: and I'm a Democrat and I'm going to go punch.
- 22:01Speaker 5: In a study, it was found that 33% of 44

- 23:10Speaker 20: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, SUV, or light truck,
- 23:14Speaker 20: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
- 23:16Speaker 20: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
- 23:20Speaker 20: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
- 23:23Speaker 20: the rule. Many high-end or luxury vehicles call for premium
- 23:26Speaker 20: or higher octane fuel. And the reason for this is
- 23:29Speaker 20: not just due to the octane rating. There are better
- 23:31Speaker 20: fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know, too,
- 23:35Speaker 20: that vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
- 23:37Speaker 20: with carbon deposits. So they pack more cleaning power into
- 23:40Speaker 20: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
- 23:43Speaker 20: your fuel choices around, say, every third tankful, you may
- 23:47Speaker 20: find better performance and miles per gallon because you are
- 23:50Speaker 20: cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive. Just
- 23:53Speaker 20: don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them anytime soon.
- 23:56Speaker 20: With your automotive prescription, I'm Ron Anany and the Car Doctor.
- 23:59Speaker 20: See you next time.
- 24:03Speaker 5: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 5: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 5: I'm Dr.
- 24:13Speaker 21: Mitch.
- 24:14Speaker 5: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 24:19Speaker 5: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 24:23Speaker 5: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 24:28Speaker 5: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 24:32Speaker 5: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 24:38Speaker 5: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 24:43Speaker 5: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 24:46Speaker 5: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 24:51Speaker 5: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 25:56Speaker 9: Oh, yeah?
- 25:57Speaker 4: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 25:59Speaker 18: And now a speech.
- 26:02Speaker 20: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 26:05Speaker 1: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
- 26:08Speaker 8: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 26:10Speaker 4: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 26:13Speaker 4: somebody call me a ride.
- 26:15Speaker 12: Love that guy.
- 26:15Speaker 3: Me too.
- 26:16Speaker 13: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 26:19Speaker 13: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

- 26:25Speaker 15: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 26:29Speaker 15: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 26:34Speaker 15: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 26:36Speaker 15: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 26:40Speaker 15: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 26:46Speaker 15: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 26:49Speaker 15: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 15: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 15: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 26:58Speaker 15: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 27:02Speaker 15: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 27:05Speaker 15: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.

- 28:13Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
- 28:17Speaker 2: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 28:27Speaker 1: How the wind is a pirate blustering.
- 28:32Speaker 3: In from sea with a.
- 28:35Speaker 5: Rollicking song he sweeps along swaggering boisterously.
- 28:42Speaker 1: Not anymore. Now we have the Somali pirates who just
- 28:45Speaker 1: come looking for where the government sign-up office is there.
- 28:50Speaker 23: 434-882-4217.
- 28:51Speaker 1: On this All Hallows' Eve, the day before All Saints' Day,
- 29:00Speaker 1: we gather there for you going through these stories. The Polish...
- 29:06Speaker 1: mess is frightening and I think indicative of what the
- 29:11Speaker 1: American left views the rule of law. And it is
- 29:18Speaker 1: everything that they claim Donald Trump is doing is happening
- 29:24Speaker 1: in Poland, where they've shut down courts. and they've just
- 29:29Speaker 1: left things out there. But, Joel, you were on the line.
- 29:32Speaker 1: We ran into our news there, so finish your thought.
- 29:35Speaker 9: And getting back to the Beagle, was that one of.
- 29:39Speaker 2: Dr.
- 29:39Speaker 9: Mengel, I mean, Fauci's Beagles that he had in his
- 29:42Speaker 9: torture chamber?
- 29:43Speaker 2: I mean, his labs?
- 29:44Speaker 1: These are the ones that PETA sought to rescue from
- 29:48Speaker 1: labs only to have them left, you know, feral into.
- 29:53Speaker 1: There was a story about that as a whole community
- 29:55Speaker 1: of feral Beagles that Nobody had homes for it, and
- 29:58Speaker 1: the SPCA couldn't handle it. So guess what? PETA got
- 30:02Speaker 1: them euthanized so they wouldn't be helping people make medical
- 30:07Speaker 1: research studies. And I don't know the physiology of why
- 30:10Speaker 1: a beagle is right for that kind of stuff. You're
- 30:13Speaker 1: the nurse. I'm not. But PETA went and got all
- 30:17Speaker 1: these companies to stop using beagles, and then the SPCAs
- 30:22Speaker 1: had to start euthanizing them because there weren't enough people
- 30:25Speaker 1: to adopt them. Oh, I didn't know that.
- 30:29Speaker 9: I thought a lot of them were adopted.
- 30:31Speaker 1: Oh, no, a lot of them are. I mean, it's
- 30:32Speaker 1: a beagle. Who isn't going to adopt a beagle, except
- 30:35Speaker 1: for the people who show up at the SPCA expecting
- 30:38Speaker 1: a white dog with a big nose and black floppy
- 30:41Speaker 1: ears and a World War I biplane. Sorry, that's not
- 30:50Speaker 1: a real beagle. But aside from that, yeah, it's pretty...
- 30:56Speaker 1: it's pretty daunting what the left can do. Anyway, anything
- 30:58Speaker 1: else on your mind, sir?
- 31:01Speaker 9: No, I just, I just, I'm really not, I hope
- 31:04Speaker 9: this doesn't sound bad. I really never got into Halloween when.
- 31:07Speaker 2: I was little.
- 31:08Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know why I, I.
- 31:10Speaker 9: Always thought Easter or Christmas and Christmas is more fun
- 31:14Speaker 9: because it's the celebration of life and it's a celebration
- 31:17Speaker 9: of the new birth and, and our savior and all
- 31:20Speaker 9: these people that, I mean, that's fine. I think it's
- 31:23Speaker 9: fun for people to do, you know, the costumes and
- 31:26Speaker 9: things like that, but the ghoulish stuff, I'm just, I
- 31:29Speaker 9: was never into that.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what, you know, let me give
- 31:32Speaker 1: a primer on what All Hallows' Eve means, Joel, but
- 31:35Speaker 1: I appreciate it, sir.
- 31:38Speaker 9: Thanks for having me.
- 31:45Speaker 1: These are not beagles.
- 31:46Speaker 3: After the turn of the century.
- 31:50Speaker 19: Blue skies over Germany Came a roar and a thunder
- 31:55Speaker 19: Man had never heard Like the screaming sound Of a
- 31:59Speaker 19: big war bird Up in the sky A man in
- 32:03Speaker 19: a plane Baron von Richtofen.
- 32:06Speaker 3: Was his name.
- 32:18Speaker 1: So, you know, unless you're looking for a white dog
- 32:21Speaker 1: with black ears and a sop with camel, you're pretty much,
- 32:25Speaker 1: you know, everyone's going to adopt a beagle. But, you know,
- 32:29Speaker 1: let's poke around All Hallows' Eve. Because there is a reality.
- 32:36Speaker 1: And we do this with St. Valentine's Day a lot
- 32:40Speaker 1: as well. And I don't mean to be the nerd.
- 32:49Speaker 1: But All Saints Day is a high holiday in the
- 32:55Speaker 1: Catholic Church. And it's about.
- 33:02Speaker 1: Those who come before us, I'm going to boil it
- 33:05Speaker 1: down to some demitasse here, you know, because there are
- 33:09Speaker 1: different levels, you know, where it's, you know, I mean,
- 33:11Speaker 1: like I said, this is a high holiday in some houses.
- 33:20Speaker 1: And so honoring those who went before us is not trivial.
- 33:31Speaker 1: By any extent, and as a matter of fact, I
- 33:33Speaker 1: think the progressives, and you can apply some of this
- 33:37Speaker 1: to the, oh, it's Snoopy versus the Red Baron, it's
- 33:40Speaker 1: the Great Pumpkin, all that stuff has led us through
- 33:44Speaker 1: an era where it turns out that Joe McCarthy actually
- 33:48Speaker 1: was right, as TV stations continued to promote these ideas
- 33:55Speaker 1: of Halloween, meaning dressing up as Superman, Not talking about
- 34:03Speaker 1: your elders who went before you, the grandfather that was
- 34:07Speaker 1: in a prison camp or the grandmother who came across
- 34:14Speaker 1: alone and five years old on a steamship to the
- 34:17Speaker 1: New World or anything like that, because that's really what
- 34:20Speaker 1: All Hallows' Eve is supposed to be about, is about
- 34:22Speaker 1: family and discussing family history and passing down family history
- 34:27Speaker 1: and lore. And celebrating the ancestors of your line. And yes,
- 34:40Speaker 1: I mean, we're talking about ghosts. We're talking about deceased people.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Some of the ceremonies would take place in the cemetery
- 34:48Speaker 1: where your family members were buried. You get south of
- 34:52Speaker 1: the border. And I mean, this is like Mardi Gras.
- 34:57Speaker 1: You go to New Orleans, there's GSO. We have a
- 35:00Speaker 1: great affiliate on our weekday festivities in New Orleans. And
- 35:06Speaker 1: I had the opportunity, speaking of prison camps. No, I
- 35:13Speaker 1: was a heck of a bed and breakfast you stayed in, Joe.
- 35:15Speaker 1: That was a ringing endorsement. No, we were down in
- 35:18Speaker 1: New Orleans for the World War II Museum because my
- 35:22Speaker 1: family gave a display to their museum of those who
- 35:29Speaker 1: had been held in prison camps and had been liberated
- 35:34Speaker 1: by the allies. But we were down there and it
- 35:37Speaker 1: was coincidentally right around Halloween. So my sister and her husband,
- 35:42Speaker 1: she's like, I have got to, so that we got
- 35:45Speaker 1: a longer stay down there than we had planned to.
- 35:47Speaker 1: We could have just gone for the one day and
- 35:50Speaker 1: listened to Tom Hanks talk a little bit and then
- 35:52Speaker 1: gone home. But we went down there for a few days.
- 35:55Speaker 1: Wife is not a New Orleans fan. Um, but we,
- 36:00Speaker 1: you know, there are quirky bits and it's, it's very,
- 36:07Speaker 1: it's very, it's become very touristy, you know, even the
- 36:12Speaker 1: occult little things. Like if you're into like, Oh, this
- 36:15Speaker 1: is madam, whatever her name, you know, but the, uh,
- 36:22Speaker 1: the parade of the dead is perhaps the closest American
- 36:28Speaker 1: connection to that tradition of, let's talk about your grandmother.
- 36:34Speaker 1: She's dead now, and she's buried at our feet. And
- 36:37Speaker 1: this goes into, you know, I'm not a cemetery guy.
- 36:41Speaker 1: When I'm done, you know, burn me up, you know,
- 36:45Speaker 1: sell me for parts. I don't care because I'm not
- 36:47Speaker 1: going to be in this body anymore. I'll be, you know,
- 36:50Speaker 1: in heaven and probably getting to interact with you As
- 36:58Speaker 1: best I can from the next level. So I'm not
- 37:04Speaker 1: going to need the vessel. So do with it as
- 37:06Speaker 1: you will. Spare parts or whatever. But you'd go to
- 37:10Speaker 1: the cemetery. Especially in Mexico. When you get south of
- 37:14Speaker 1: the border. And some of these celebrations. You get into
- 37:16Speaker 1: the cemeteries. And that's where you're having this. Because that's
- 37:20Speaker 1: where your ancestors were. But anything that celebrates ancestry.
- 37:26Speaker 6: And.
- 37:26Speaker 1: And the places we've been before and the people who
- 37:30Speaker 1: have done it before us cannot be wrong. So, you know,
- 37:35Speaker 1: I get it when people say, oh, I don't want
- 37:40Speaker 1: to do the whole Halloween thing. I get it. I
- 37:43Speaker 1: understand that part. You know, Snickers bars and, you know,
- 37:47Speaker 1: a frozen costume on a little kid that you bought
- 37:51Speaker 1: at Walmart. That's not the same thing. But understand there's
- 37:55Speaker 1: a reality in All Hallows' Eve that does make a
- 37:59Speaker 1: lot of sense.
- 38:00Speaker 21: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
- 38:05Speaker 21: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
- 38:09Speaker 21: the police? At a time when America's neighborhoods need the
- 38:13Speaker 21: protection of police the most, some elected officials would rather create.
- 38:17Speaker 2: More chaos by playing politics.
- 38:19Speaker 21: If you're sick of elected officials caving in to demands
- 38:22Speaker 21: of the radical left, you're not alone. It's time we
- 38:26Speaker 21: stand up and declare our support for local police. The

- 40:02Speaker 18: You were strolling along in goodwill when just past that
- 40:05Speaker 18: mid-century side table and denim jacket you spotted them nestled
- 40:09Speaker 18: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.
- 40:13Speaker 13: Oh, yes!
- 40:14Speaker 2: Yes!
- 40:15Speaker 4: Yes!
- 40:16Speaker 18: Your favorite half-breakfast pastry, half-all-day dessert food, made into your
- 40:20Speaker 18: favorite form of ear candy.
- 40:22Speaker 15: Oh, my.
- 40:24Speaker 18: Those bejeweled sprinkles have satisfied some unknown hunger within you.
- 40:27Speaker 6: Shh!

- 40:57Speaker 22: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
- 41:02Speaker 22: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 22: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 22: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 22: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 22: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 22: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 22: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 22: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 41:36Speaker 22: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
- 41:40Speaker 10: Eat better.

- 42:52Speaker 3: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our
- 42:55Speaker 3: first date?
- 42:56Speaker 18: Sure.
- 42:56Speaker 13: We'll probably stay together.
- 42:58Speaker 15: Probably?
- 43:00Speaker 1: It's been 23 minutes since I ate. I can probably swim.
- 43:05Speaker 4: Uh, you should wait 30 minutes.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Okay, don't tell me what to do.
- 43:09Speaker 3: Cannonball!
- 43:11Speaker 19: Cramp!
- 43:12Speaker 11: Oh, I have a cramp.
- 43:16Speaker 20: I can probably hit the green from here.
- 43:18Speaker 1: Probably.
- 43:21Speaker 2: Can I get a mulligan?
- 43:25Speaker 3: Ready to go?
- 43:27Speaker 12: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 43:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 43:35Speaker 4: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 43:39Speaker 4: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 43:42Speaker 4: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message

- 44:13Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Is there some sort of anniversary that I'm not aware of?
- 44:26Speaker 1: Because everybody seems to be talking about thriller, flash mobs.
- 44:44Speaker 1: I was curious about it because there was an announcement
- 44:48Speaker 1: in the 6 o'clock news last night that there was
- 44:51Speaker 1: going to be a flash mob doing thriller in costume
- 44:56Speaker 1: downtown Charlottesville, Virginia. Which is, to be fair, better than
- 45:01Speaker 1: the flash mob of Nazis and Black Lives Matter actually
- 45:06Speaker 1: spraying each other with pepper spray and throwing newspaper kioshes
- 45:10Speaker 1: at each other. So, I mean, all things being considered
- 45:13Speaker 1: and things that can happen in downtown Charlottesville. But I
- 45:18Speaker 1: wanted to make a note to anyone because I, out
- 45:20Speaker 1: of curiosity, I went around some of the news sites
- 45:23Speaker 1: and there are at least a dozen other instances where
- 45:27Speaker 1: there were announcements of flash mobs coming up. And I
- 45:31Speaker 1: hate to be pedantic and maybe I misunderstand the idea
- 45:35Speaker 1: of a flash mob. But if I recall correctly, the
- 45:40Speaker 1: whole point of a flash mob is that you didn't
- 45:44Speaker 1: know it was happening until it was already happening. You
- 45:49Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong at 434-882-4217. But as I
- 45:54Speaker 1: understood it, never truly having been invited to participate in
- 45:59Speaker 1: any of these flash mobs myself, telling everyone you're going
- 46:07Speaker 1: to have a flash mob is just announcing you're going
- 46:10Speaker 1: to have some street theater, which is fine. I mean,
- 46:14Speaker 1: if you've got the choreography down and you can pull
- 46:17Speaker 1: off a thriller, that works. Meanwhile, in riots more similar
- 46:23Speaker 1: to the one I described in Charlottesville, riot police are
- 46:28Speaker 1: on the streets around Poland's top court. The phrase coup
- 46:33Speaker 1: d'etat is being used The chief judge was suspended. Now, understand,
- 46:42Speaker 1: we in America, we forget that these countries have different
- 46:45Speaker 1: constitutions than we are, than we do. Standoff, Carol Narocki
- 46:52Speaker 1: has given up a trip to Senegal. And, you know,
- 47:01Speaker 1: if you need an excuse, right? mid-flight and circled, turned
- 47:08Speaker 1: around and brought the plane back to Warsaw. Three people
- 47:15Speaker 1: so far have been arrested trying to enter the court complex.
- 47:22Speaker 1: The Constitutional Court has an ex-account, of course, we all do, right?
- 47:27Speaker 1: Denounced the intervention as a coup d'etat and insisted that
- 47:32Speaker 1: the judge be reinstated. The confrontation is reported to be
- 47:45Speaker 1: between the president or the prime minister, Donald Tusk, and
- 47:55Speaker 1: the president, Narwaki. Tusk leads what they call the centrists,
- 48:04Speaker 1: the Fabians, I guess, and then The nationalists are trying to,
- 48:14Speaker 1: you know, call for him to do more conservative things,
- 48:18Speaker 1: more nationalist things. And they're different, but they can be
- 48:22Speaker 1: construed as the same. Waldemar Zurek, who's justice minister and
- 48:30Speaker 1: attorney general at the same time, you know, jealous of
- 48:34Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, who's got like eight jobs in the... Does
- 48:37Speaker 1: he keep moving seats? In the cabinet. Because there are
- 48:41Speaker 1: cabinet seats that would be empty otherwise.
- 48:43Speaker 21: I don't know.
- 48:45Speaker 1: So Zorak tells journalists he requested the legal immunity of
- 48:50Speaker 1: Sorowski and his deputy, Soschansky. And no, I'm not making
- 48:58Speaker 1: these up. These are actual names from the story. He
- 49:05Speaker 1: wants them to face criminal charges over their refusal to
- 49:08Speaker 1: allow judges elected by Parliament to take their office. Because Parliament.
- 49:20Speaker 3: is.
- 49:20Speaker 1: Led by the centrists now. And so the riots seem
- 49:28Speaker 1: to be right now very similar to what happened here
- 49:31Speaker 1: in Charlottesville in 2017. People purporting to be The opposition
- 49:42Speaker 1: party is calling themselves the Law and Justice Party. And
- 49:46Speaker 1: what do we know about political parties, boys and girls?
- 49:49Speaker 1: Certainly in the American construct, if you call yourself the
- 49:53Speaker 1: Law and Justice Party, what is it that you're not
- 49:55Speaker 1: looking to get? Exactly. So this battle in Poland.
- 50:11Speaker 1: Suspending judges and who has the authority to that? Who
- 50:14Speaker 1: in the United States has the authority to fire a
- 50:18Speaker 1: judge to just suspend them? Well, yeah, there's the impeachment
- 50:25Speaker 1: process through the legislative branch. Yes, yes. Some of them
- 50:32Speaker 1: are appointed by governors at state level. Most of them not, though.
- 50:35Speaker 1: Most of them are either elected or or once appointed
- 50:39Speaker 1: by a governor, they go outside of the governor's purview.
- 50:49Speaker 1: Because in our construct, we wanted an independent judiciary, one
- 50:56Speaker 1: that couldn't have their roles suspended by any other branch.
- 51:01Speaker 1: And sure, you can make the argument that an impeachment
- 51:03Speaker 1: proceeding is the legislative branch having control over the judiciary.
- 51:11Speaker 1: But we've lived through enough impeachment proceedings to know that
- 51:17Speaker 1: that's like saying a husband has control over what his
- 51:22Speaker 1: wife wants him to do. I want to rake the
- 51:32Speaker 1: leaves this weekend. Honey, will you rake the leaves this weekend?
- 51:36Speaker 1: I knew she was going to ask me to do that.
- 51:42Speaker 1: So the rioting in Poland is going to continue. But
- 51:51Speaker 1: don't be fooled a little bit by the Nationalist versus Centrist.
- 51:59Speaker 1: Because these become names that we've learned that the Nationalist
- 52:05Speaker 1: Socialists are often just socialists who have chosen the Nationalist
- 52:11Speaker 1: Halloween mask to go trick-or-treating through your neighborhoods in Krakow.
- 52:22Speaker 1: And that really the only way you have an independent
- 52:25Speaker 1: judiciary is if you have an independent judiciary, that once
- 52:30Speaker 1: a judge is on the bench, whether the president complains
- 52:33Speaker 1: or not about it is irrelevant. Oh, I heard a frightening,
- 52:38Speaker 1: you want to talk about, you know, scary and the judiciary. Yeah,
- 52:41Speaker 1: I know that people still go out dressed as Hillary Clinton.
- 52:49Speaker 1: But she said something earlier this week.
- 52:51Speaker 15: You know, it's true.
- 52:52Speaker 23: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
- 52:55Speaker 23: to think about what matters most when it comes to
