  Speaker 4: another station would say hey did you hear the such
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: and such that i did this morning and i'd have
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: to honestly tell him no The radio was on, but

• 1:46
  Speaker 4: you didn't realize later was all going to happen right
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: before you have to leave for work in the morning.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: I want to thank, again, we've begun our giveaways, Trans-Siberian

  Speaker 4: Yesterday, we gave Larry McDermott out of Jacksonville a pair
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: of tickets. Larry, if you're out there, it's the hour
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: that we're shared on 1021 out of St. Augustine there,

  Speaker 4: station only carries an hour or two with the program,
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: podcasts of all four hours of this. I know, you're
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: sitting there, four hours worth of it. Believe me, we

  Speaker 4: have four hours worth of stuff. And you can go
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: to Spotify, YouTube, that kind of stuff. to find the
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Apple podcast. Yes, certainly. There are first things this morning,
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: the Israeli elections. They haven't released results, but the exit polls.
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: Remember when we used to do exit polls? When did
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: they say they stopped? Oh, yes, 2001. They announced they
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: wouldn't do exit polling broadcasts anymore. Because it threw off
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: and the Democrats felt like, you know, well, the exit
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: polls say you won, so they stopped showing up. And
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: then George Bush won, leading to he's not my president
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: for the first time. But Israeli voters telling exit pollsters
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: that it looks like Benjamin Netanyahu's.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Bloc.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Party bloc is going to be the largest there, maybe
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: equaled only by his chief rival, former military leader, Gadi Eisenkot.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Netanyahu's gift over his time as prime minister has been
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: his ability to build coalition governments in their Knesset parliaments.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Hacking at the Federal Election Commission a week before the
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: November midterm culminations. FEC concerned that its electronic filing system
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: is now offline, but they assure that their IT staff
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: is hard at work at it. Senior State Department officials
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: said Tuesday that the government is offering Flavio Bolsonaro and
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: his family visas. to emigrate to the United States. No
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: report out of Brazil that Bolsonaro and his family were
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: in any sort of peril, but they have been offered
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: these visas to move to the United States. Venezuelan crude
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: oil has moved to the United States. Its producer, NABEP,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: has unloaded in Texas and will be selling to the.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: The Department of Energy. It's given to the U.S. government
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: and then will be sold to either ExxonMobil or Citgo.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Citgo is the oil company that was taken over by
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Hugo Chavez and nationalized in his regime. But the president
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: said it will be made available at no cost to
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: the United States. And those are some of our first
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: things this morning. The Talk Media Network, 434-882-4217. That's how
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: you get to us next. You know, we were talking
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: earlier about, you know, things I use, and I received
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: an email from Gene that says, don't you think that
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: limits you to only things you can use? If I
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: owned a car dealership, that would mean I'd have to
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: give you a car. No, it doesn't. I mean, if
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: I drove a car. I mean, I drive a Jeep.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: If there's a Jeep dealer out there that wants me
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: to say good things about my Jeep in reference to
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: your dealership, doesn't mean anything there. But one of the
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: people I do use and I had never used before
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: was CBD oil. Our friend Sealy out in the Four
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Corners presses it. It's the Mesa Verde Hemp Farm. MesaVerdeHemp.com
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: is where you can find it. my knee, my wife's back,
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: my shoulder. I mean, we're persons of a certain age.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: And so there are tendencies to ache a little bit.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: She's been weeding, trying to get her garlic planted in
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: our garden.
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,

• 8:02
  Speaker 7: Crime across the country is at an all-time high. It
• 8:05
  Speaker 7: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
• 8:08
  Speaker 7: We don't want the feeling of being unprotected and vulnerable.
• 8:12

  Speaker 8: You were strolling along in goodwill when just past that
• 9:06
  Speaker 8: mid-century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them nestled
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes!
• 9:16
  Speaker 9: Yes!
• 9:17
  Speaker 8: Your favorite half breakfast pastry, half all day dessert food
• 9:20
  Speaker 8: made into your favorite form of ear candy. Oh my.
• 9:24
  Speaker 8: Those bejeweled sprinkles have satisfied some unknown hunger within you.
• 9:30
  Speaker 10: Do you smell that?
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: That's the sugary scent of shopping success. For this is Goodwill.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: And with every item you buy, you fund local job.
• 9:42
  Speaker 8: Training and more. So go forth. Bring home those donut earrings.
• 9:48
  Speaker 8: And bring home so much good to your community.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Goodwill.
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: Bring good home.
• 9:58
  Speaker 11: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 10:03
  Speaker 11: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 11: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 10:12
  Speaker 11: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 10:15
  Speaker 11: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 10:22
  Speaker 11: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 10:24
  Speaker 11: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:28
  Speaker 11: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:33
  Speaker 11: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 10:37
  Speaker 11: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
• 10:41
  Speaker 11: Eat better. Get moving. Visit checkupamerica.org or call 1-800-DIABETES, a

  Speaker 3: My name is Jim.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: I'm a veteran, and I lost both legs in Vietnam.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: My victory was proving that disability is not a limitation.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I'm Julius. I'm a veteran.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: My victory was going from homeless to home.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: At DAV, we're on a mission, helping veterans of all

• 11:51
  Speaker 4: Then probably.
• 11:52
  Speaker 12: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our
• 11:55
  Speaker 12: first date?
• 11:56
  Speaker 18: Sure.
• 11:57
  Speaker 19: We'll probably stay together.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: Probably?
• 11:59
  Speaker 17: It's been 23 minutes since I ate.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: I can probably swim.
• 12:05
  Speaker 17: Uh, you should wait 30 minutes.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: Okay, don't tell me what to do.
• 12:09
  Speaker 17: Cannonball!
• 12:12
  Speaker 20: Cramp!
• 12:13
  Speaker 16: I have a cramp.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: I can probably hit the green from here.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Probably.
• 12:24
  Speaker 12: Can I get a mulligan?
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Ready to go?
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm pretty sober.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 12:35
  Speaker 17: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 12:39
  Speaker 17: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 12:42
  Speaker 17: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message
• 12:45
  Speaker 17: brought to you by NHTSA and the Ad Council.
• 12:48
  Speaker 12: You know the legal drinking age is 21. You may
• 12:51
  Speaker 12: also know this law protects teens. Find out more at DontServeTeens.gov.

• 13:14
  Speaker 2: News and analysis, now without artificial colors. First thing today,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: On this Ted Steve morning, thank you for letting us
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: be of service to you. You know they're not singing
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: about COVID because they're talking about cures. We don't do
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: cures anymore. That's an older song. Back when we used
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: to talk about curing things that ailed you. On this
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: Ted Steve morning where we celebrate God's gifts to you
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: and your zealous pursuit of same... This text message, Frank asks,
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: you know, how can we be so laissez-faire discussing sex
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: if that's not the crux of the whole abortion issue?
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: So there are truisms that cross party lines, in my view.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: If you ask somebody if an unwanted pregnancy is a
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: good thing, they're like, no, okay, let's get to a
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: world where we don't have unwanted pregnancies. And you'll always
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: have somebody say, well, you can't tell me whether I
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: can and can't engage in Congress, as it were.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: As soon as the first time it pops up in
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: the Kama Sutra, like, oh, that's rich. The Kama Sutra
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: refers to a man and a woman conjugating. as engaging
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: in Congress. And if you think about it, outside of
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: maybe a little note on the dresser, it's very similar.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: You are a really good sport. Talk to you in
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: a week. So you can have honest conversations without trying
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: to be, you know, you can't have. I just want
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: people to be judicious about it. There's a great organization
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: that works through crisis pregnancy centers and local high schools
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: called Worth Your Weight. Their very existence is going to
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: be switched to a criminal activity if this constitutional amendment
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: in Virginia passes. And this is one of those things
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: that this Sachs fellow in Chicago has done a lot
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: to support, criminalizing dissent. making it a crime to say,
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: have you considered better answers? Have you considered keeping the baby?
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: Have you considered adoption? Adoption itself could be turned into
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: a crime because we're denying somebody their right to an abortion.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: I extrapolated it to its most absurd yesterday. I said,
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: could not wanting to sleep with a woman be construed
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: as violating her right to an abortion? Could I get
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: arrested because I said, no, I don't do that on
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: the first date? You're violating my right to get an abortion.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Isn't that conceivable? He says, pun intended. Anyway, that's just
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: thought provoking. But again, it obviously touched a nerve with
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: this issue out of Chicago. And again, all the folks
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: who are listening to us in Chicago now are downloading
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: this part on podcast because our Chicago affiliates have moved
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: on with their day. And that's fine. I'm not railing
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: against it. I'm just telling you, if you're listening in St.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: Augustine this morning, your next local program is going to
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: start at the top of the hour. And you can
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: get the rest of us. People ask me all the time, well,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: why don't you put a stream up on your Web site?
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: Because then I'm not doing the stations who are blessings
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: to us as well that are broadcasting us any favors.
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: I'm sort of diluting their listenership. And that's not what
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: I'm here to do. I'm here to engross their listenership
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: for our time on the stage. And then you come
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: back to the podcast channel and get the hours you
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: missed later. I mean, if you insist, my flagship station streams.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: And I know that's how Joel listens to us in
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: the high desert of Arizona. working on his alien abduction
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: program that he's going to start someday. Good morning, Joel.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: How are you doing, sir?
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Good morning, Joe.
• 18:14
  Speaker 21: Yeah, I'm not worried about the falling cacti either.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Well, that's a good thing. I'm glad that you're not afraid.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: Fear is a bad thing. It consumes us.
• 18:25
  Speaker 21: Well, what I wanted to talk about is Tim Walsh, the.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Governor.
• 18:33
  Speaker 21: No, I hope I didn't get his first name wrong,
• 18:37
  Speaker 21: of the UN and Cuba, because I wanted to say this,
• 18:43
  Speaker 21: that I'm glad Cuba got all irate when he was
• 18:48
  Speaker 21: exposing all their deeds and what they've done and their history,
• 18:54
  Speaker 21: and then he was showing, hey, Castro had over $ 240, 000
• 18:58
  Speaker 21: of on his wrist, the illustrious... Communist leader.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: Mike Waltz, by the way. Mike Waltz is the guy
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: you're talking about.
• 19:11
  Speaker 21: Mike Waltz. Oh, I'm sorry, Mike Waltz. Forgive me. But
• 19:15
  Speaker 21: I just thought that that depicts today's present Democrat Party,
• 19:20
  Speaker 21: how they want to stifle speech. And this was in
• 19:24
  Speaker 21: the UN, where a lot of times I've called in
• 19:26
  Speaker 21: and said, why do we still have the UN? Well,
• 19:29
  Speaker 21: maybe that's an example of why we have the UN, because...
• 19:32
  Speaker 21: All these nations that we really can't stand or we
• 19:35
  Speaker 21: don't get along with are coming into our country as diplomats,
• 19:40
  Speaker 21: and they have to maintain within their responsibility, within the
• 19:45
  Speaker 21: bylaws of our free speech, and they're not used to that.
• 19:50
  Speaker 21: And they're not used to people speaking up against it
• 19:52
  Speaker 21: without going down the chute, a hangman's rope, or being
• 19:58
  Speaker 21: shot or disappearing. So I thought that's a good example
• 20:03
  Speaker 21: of the Cuba as today's Democrat, today's socialistic Democrat.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: Well, they are. They want to decipher.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, the modern, especially the squad and all
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: those folks look at Cuba as their best example of
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: what communism is. I'm not sure I could find some
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: soft core communist countries in Europe right now that they
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: could point to, although France is a bad example at
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: the moment. They want to avoid that one.
• 20:35
  Speaker 22: But.
• 20:36
  Speaker 21: But I'm talking about the behaviors of the Democrat Party.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah. And the shouting down is important. But also
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: your point about the U.N. See, one of the problems
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: Americans have with the U.N. is not even so much
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: the existence of the U.N., but the inability of our U.N.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: ambassadors to get into a shouting match with a country
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: who doesn't respect their citizens' human rights.
• 21:02
  Speaker 21: Right. Or that, or they either walk out. Because look
• 21:06
  Speaker 21: at what happened with Israel when Netanyahu got up and spoke.
• 21:10
  Speaker 21: And he said, look, if this were your country, we're
• 21:13
  Speaker 21: only a country of, think what, 10 million people. And
• 21:15
  Speaker 21: he goes, an equivalency of other people. We had people raped, burned,
• 21:20
  Speaker 21: and children put in microwaves and all kinds of horrible stuff.
• 21:23
  Speaker 21: And yet you're calling, we're surrounded by nations that don't
• 21:27
  Speaker 21: even like us. And it's the same thing. And now
• 21:30
  Speaker 21: in America, we have a political party that, that doesn't
• 21:34
  Speaker 21: even like America, doesn't even like the Constitution, and wants
• 21:37
  Speaker 21: to separate us and separate us as people while Russia
• 21:41
  Speaker 21: and China and Iran are cheering on, like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 21:45
  Speaker 21: we want you to fight. And like you said, Joe,
• 21:48
  Speaker 21: we don't want to be tribal, but yet they're trying
• 21:51
  Speaker 21: to make us tribal. And I'm glad Mike Walsh, he
• 21:54
  Speaker 21: was a Green Beret, and he's done a lot of
• 21:57
  Speaker 21: good things in America, and he's pointing it out.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and we have to.

• 23:11
  Speaker 15: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, SUV, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 15: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:17
  Speaker 15: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:21
  Speaker 15: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
• 23:24
  Speaker 15: the rule. Many high-end or luxury vehicles call for premium
• 23:27
  Speaker 15: or higher octane fuel. And the reason for this is
• 23:30
  Speaker 15: not just due to the octane rating. There are better
• 23:32
  Speaker 15: fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know, too,
• 23:36
  Speaker 15: that vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
• 23:38
  Speaker 15: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
• 23:41
  Speaker 15: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
• 23:44
  Speaker 15: your fuel choices around, say, every third tankful, you may
• 23:47
  Speaker 15: find better performance and miles per gallon because you are
• 23:50
  Speaker 15: cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive. Just
• 23:54
  Speaker 15: don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them anytime soon.

  Speaker 15: See you next time.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch, and nitric
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

  Speaker 4: stay up late with our friends in St. Pete this
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: morning are happy.
• 29:04
  Speaker 16: I was going to stay up anyway, because it's when
• 29:08
  Speaker 16: I go into production central and I'm not going to
• 29:10
  Speaker 16: waste the production that I have just for people to
• 29:13
  Speaker 16: hear it and enjoy it last night. The two the
• 29:15
  Speaker 16: two radio teams going back and forth, back and forth.
• 29:18
  Speaker 16: And also you're up. Howard Cosell once told Bob Costas,
• 29:23
  Speaker 16: you know, doing your, and I can't do Howard Cosell,
• 29:25
  Speaker 16: because Costas called him and said, hey, I really, it
• 29:30
  Speaker 16: was great to meet you.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: The other night. You know, you've been really good. Oh,
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: I know you.
• 29:36
  Speaker 16: You're the young man who waxes poetically about the infield
• 29:40
  Speaker 16: fly rule.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: That's it. That's it. You know what?
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: Howard kind of nailed who Bob Costas is.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. It's a, it's pretty good.
• 29:49
  Speaker 16: All right. The raise in case you were on another
• 29:52
  Speaker 16: planet last night, or, you know, you were in a
• 29:54
  Speaker 16: flying car. The Rays erased a 3-2 lead after Cooper
• 29:58
  Speaker 16: Pratt hit a go-ahead dinger in the top of the
• 30:00
  Speaker 16: 12th inning. Okay, first rookie in postseason history with extra
• 30:04
  Speaker 16: inning home runs. Yes, all I could hear was Vince
• 30:07
  Speaker 16: Scully's voice, all right? Six guys then in the Tampa
• 30:10
  Speaker 16: lineup were involved in the comeback, which was after midnight.
• 30:13
  Speaker 16: Former William & Mary star Ben Williamson delivered the first
• 30:17
  Speaker 16: game winner of his career.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: So with all that being said, let's.
• 30:20
  Speaker 16: Go to the Pratt home run first, courtesy of the
• 30:23
  Speaker 16: Milwaukee Brewers. radio network seymour on two and two sets
• 30:28
  Speaker 16: and throws and a fly ball to left it is
• 30:32
  Speaker 16: back and it is gone cooper pratt gives the brewers
• 30:38
  Speaker 16: the lead in inning number 12 Okay.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: So I'm thinking, all right, I'm in pretty good shape.
• 30:43
  Speaker 16: I start to write headlines to get ready for Joe
• 30:44
  Speaker 16: in the morning, just to give you a little inside backdrop.
• 30:47
  Speaker 16: But then it was bottom of the 12th and Johnny DeLuca,
• 30:51
  Speaker 16: the game tying hit the Tampa Rays radio network.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: One, two on its way from Shane growing.
• 30:58
  Speaker 26: So we had a ground ball toward the middle skips
• 31:00
  Speaker 26: in the center base hit and we're tied.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: Mullins comes home.
• 31:05
  Speaker 20: Hicks is at second.
• 31:07
  Speaker 22: The winning run.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: He's in scoring position.
• 31:10
  Speaker 26: And there's nobody out in.
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: The 12th inning.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: That's why we love baseball.
• 31:13
  Speaker 16: And by the way, Ben Williamson attended Freedom High School
• 31:16
  Speaker 16: in South Riding, Virginia. He won several awards his senior season,
• 31:21
  Speaker 16: 2019 Conference and Regional Player of the Year. And then
• 31:23
  Speaker 16: he went to William & Mary, playing college baseball for
• 31:27
  Speaker 16: the William & Mary Tribe. He was named a First
• 31:30
  Speaker 16: Team All-Colonial Athletic Association.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: And when you.
• 31:33
  Speaker 16: See, what I love then is going to the Wikipedia page,
• 31:36
  Speaker 16: you find out all the minor leagues... You know, the
• 31:38
  Speaker 16: guy's hit 243 in AA, is having trouble with major
• 31:42
  Speaker 16: league pitching.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: You know, he grew up in Chantilly, Virginia.
• 31:46
  Speaker 16: His mother was a college gymnast at James Madison University.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: That ball outside, it's 2-0.
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: Well, but that's what you have to do sometimes. I mean,
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: you go see these guys when they prep for these
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: ball games. It's, you know. The action's only going to
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: carry you so far.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 32:05
  Speaker 16: You got to, I tell our, Dick Vitale told me,
• 32:09
  Speaker 16: you got to educate, entertain, and connect. I mean, it's
• 32:12
  Speaker 16: that simple. Okay, so Ben Williamson, the game winner. He
• 32:16
  Speaker 16: had never had a career walk-off base hit.
• 32:20
  Speaker 26: Again, Fortes, the runner at third. Base is full, none out.
• 32:23
  Speaker 26: Pitch to Ben. Swing and a chopper over first.
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: Base hit right field.
• 32:27
  Speaker 26: Braves win in 12, and we'll see you tomorrow.
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: Well, that's a little borrow from Jack Buck, and so
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: that's okay. That's all right. Because if you're going to
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: borrow something, borrow it from Jack Buck. I don't believe
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: what I just saw. I've heard too many people say that.
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: You know, it's fun, though. I got up this morning,
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: and I went to the sports pages, and the Twitter
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: pops up as part of the web search. And Milwaukee
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: is just not having a good time. Everyone wanted them.
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: Why didn't Missarowski pitch? And the Washington Nationals, bless them,
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: you know, I had a two-year run where I got
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: the Washington Capitals on my radio station winning the Stanley Cup.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: And then the Nationals with Ryan Zimmerman and these guys
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: and Daniel Hudson throws the final out and is frozen
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: in moments. But people forget the Washington Nationals bullpen was
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: an adventure in 2019. And Daniel Hudson was like one
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: of the few people who was consistent. So when the
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: Nationals started bringing in Steven Strasburg and Patrick Corbin to
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: pitch out of the bullpen... it was because they really
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: didn't have any faith in the people, but it's ruined
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: it for everyone since.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 33:42
  Speaker 16: And just when you're given the Milwaukee, you know, bullpen,
• 33:46
  Speaker 16: all the flowers in the world and how good they are.
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: And this team is 24 years old and he gave
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: up four straight hits, you know?
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 33:54
  Speaker 16: You know, and then we just thought, okay, this is
• 33:57
  Speaker 16: absolutely over. Uh, anyway, uh, Coach Murph, of course, Pat Murphy,
• 34:03
  Speaker 16: the skipper for the Brewers, waxing poetically because he's so down.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Baseball is baseball.
• 34:09
  Speaker 20: When you're achieving something like this, it's going to have
• 34:12
  Speaker 20: its adversity. We had some things go our way yesterday.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: They had some things go their way today. So, That's
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: the way it is.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: That's why I love it again.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: If you're a competitor, you wake up tomorrow morning, come
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: ready to play.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, got to do it again.
• 34:25
  Speaker 16: One more night in Tampa and a few more strip
• 34:27
  Speaker 16: clubs tonight for the Milwaukee guys.
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: What is it they say about momentum in baseball? Not
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: to sound like Bob Costas, but momentum goes as far
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: as tomorrow's starting pitchers.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:40
  Speaker 16: It would be great to, I mean, if like, you know,
• 34:42
  Speaker 16: the Brewers wrap it up tonight.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: And if they do, you know, the Brewers network.
• 34:45
  Speaker 16: It's on the scoreboard clock in center field. It is 1034.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: So how many companies, how many companies are bidding with to,
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: you know, commissioners? I nearly said selling's office to the
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: commissioner's office to, to produce the documentary. How many documentary
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: filmmakers are out there saying, let us, because it's the
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: first for both cities. Milwaukee has been up and down
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: and around, and should it stay, it's moved, nearly moved,
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: and then it's the whole Bud Selig owns it and
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: his commissioner thing. And then Tampa, it's Helene, it's the
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: roof is gone. We're playing at Hal Steinbrenner Memorial Field
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: in Tampa. Well, yeah.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: No, you're so right.
• 35:41
  Speaker 16: And not to throw a cloud over this, there's going
• 35:44
  Speaker 16: to be a work stoppage December 1st.
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, there's that too. But even that, they went
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: to Tampa and St. Pete and said, will you raise
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: everybody's taxes to build us a new ballpark? And Tampa
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: and St. Pete said, no, no. And so they just
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: went and fixed the old one. And I guess they are.
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That area, Joe, the Tampa, St. Petersburg, the beaches
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: that are intertwined. There's, you know, it's beautiful.
• 36:17
  Speaker 16: That area. Yeah, it is beautiful, but I mean, it
• 36:21
  Speaker 16: is jammed with, with P I mean, you can't get
• 36:25
  Speaker 16: anywhere within a couple of minutes. You just can't. It
• 36:28
  Speaker 16: is just jammed with traffic. Jammed with tourists, jammed with
• 36:32
  Speaker 16: people who love to live there. And I swear half
• 36:35
  Speaker 16: the city commutes to Disney anyway. They drive off by
• 36:39
  Speaker 16: 95 and come to Orlando because if you're going either way,
• 36:42
  Speaker 16: and my boss is a Tampa guy, got to go
• 36:45
  Speaker 16: to game three. Rishi was, I met him when he
• 36:48
  Speaker 16: was doing radio for the university of Maryland. I took
• 36:52
  Speaker 16: a picture of his radio crew way back when he was,
• 36:54
  Speaker 16: he was a college guy, but now he's now my boss.
• 36:57
  Speaker 16: But yeah, they, so he went to game three and
• 37:00
  Speaker 16: saw the eight run explosion. And so now, but that, but, but,
• 37:05
  Speaker 16: but that area. And so, and, and God bless Pat
• 37:08
  Speaker 16: Williams for all those years, the guy who wrote 105
• 37:11
  Speaker 16: books and, you know, was part.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: Of the, you know, Philadelphia 76.
• 37:13
  Speaker 16: And he wanted, he wanted baseball in Orlando so badly.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: I would have gone on Kalshi and bet that the
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: Rays were going to move to Orlando.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all of us did.
• 37:28
  Speaker 17: He had a hat.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Pat Williams had a hat that he used to wear.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Bring baseball to Orlando. He had it all figured out,
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: and then, of course, God rest his soul, he passed away.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: All right, so with all that said.
• 37:39
  Speaker 16: It's another late night tonight, but that's okay because my
• 37:41
  Speaker 16: week starts to soften a little bit, and I will
• 37:45
  Speaker 16: see you. I will see you tomorrow morning. It is
• 37:48
  Speaker 16: 1034 in the City of Angels. Okay, so Vince will
• 37:53
  Speaker 16: be in my head the whole day.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: You'll be waxing prophetic about the use of your bullpen
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: in the morning. Thank you, Mac.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: See you in the area.
• 38:01

• 38:05
  Speaker 14: and destruction, Some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
• 38:10
  Speaker 14: the police. At a time when America's neighborhoods need the
• 38:14
  Speaker 14: protection of police the most, some elected officials would rather create.

  Speaker 2: More chaos by playing politics.

  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in

  Speaker 23: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
• 40:38
  Speaker 23: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
• 40:42
  Speaker 23: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
• 40:45
  Speaker 23: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 40:50
  Speaker 23: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 40:54
  Speaker 23: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 40:57
  Speaker 23: of an infection that can spread from person to person.

• 44:18
  Speaker 3: This is just what the doctor ordered.
• 44:21
  Speaker 4: Honey, this is Ted Steve.
• 44:23
  Speaker 25: Morning.
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: Time for our Caring Beyond Cancer segment. And we do
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: this because what did Ken Burns call it? The emperor
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: of all maladies. So many different permutations. So many different
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: things it does. Many of them manifesting, obviously, out of
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: control cell growth. is the key to making what is cancer.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: But then you get into why is prostate cancer different
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: than lymphoma and so many other things there that have
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: dogged the treatment of it. I was struck by this.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: Dr.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: Alan Sung is on with us to talk about Liver
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: Cancer Awareness Month. And liver cancer strikes me, Dr. Sung,
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: as I see these ads now, and apparently there are
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: at least in the digital advertising world. I haven't seen
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: them on television, although it's tough to define what is
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: television anymore. These ads for these liver supplements where basically
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: some guy or some girl paints a fairly illusionary picture
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: to being a hard drinker, hard partier, oh, but I
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: take liver blow every morning and it cleans out my
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: liver and whatever. I'm thinking, okay, who is the snake
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: oil salesman? People get mad at me because I talk
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: about CBD oil, but these guys go around talking about
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: take this liver supplement and you'll be good to go
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: for Friday night and the tailgate party. Is that a danger?
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's great to have your dietary supplements that
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: can help you keep your liver clean and liver cleansing
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: is It's a tough thing to go through, but I
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: think it makes everyone feel better. But taking care of
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: our liver is hard work, isn't it?
• 46:10
  Speaker 22: It is.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: Good morning, Joe. Thanks for inviting me.
• 46:13
  Speaker 25: I can't comment too much on what we hear on
• 46:16
  Speaker 25: social media or commercials.
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: There's just so much.
• 46:20
  Speaker 25: But I think what's important today is that, you know,
• 46:23
  Speaker 25: October is Liver Cancer Awareness Month.
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: And most people... Don't think about the liver, but your.
• 46:28
  Speaker 25: Liver works behind the scenes every day. It's processing nutrients,
• 46:32
  Speaker 25: helping clear waste from your body. And I think the
• 46:35
  Speaker 25: most important message today is that the most common cancer
• 46:39
  Speaker 25: that starts in the liver, people, the term is hepatocellular carcinoma,
• 46:44
  Speaker 25: develops after years of inflammation, years of damage, whether it's drinking,
• 46:49
  Speaker 25: whether it's other sources. But What happens is the damage
• 46:52
  Speaker 25: leaves scars in the liver. We call that cirrhosis. I
• 46:54
  Speaker 25: think most people have heard of the term cirrhosis, and
• 46:57
  Speaker 25: that raises the risk of cancer. Now, not everyone with
• 47:00
  Speaker 25: liver disease develops cancer, but knowing that someone has liver
• 47:03
  Speaker 25: disease gives us a chance to at least act early.
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: Well, and you mentioned inflammation and whether it's, you know,
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: the plaque buildup that leads to high blood pressure or,
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: you know, any of these places. Inflammation. is a bad thing.
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: I'm going to go out on a limb here and
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: say things that cause inflammation in the human body should
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: be avoided at all costs. Don't you think, Dr.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: Song?
• 47:28
  Speaker 25: Absolutely. Whenever you get sick, whether it's a cold or
• 47:31
  Speaker 25: a flu, that's inflammation in your body and you don't
• 47:34
  Speaker 25: feel well.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: And you want to prepare yourself for it. So what
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: are lifestyle things? Obviously, You know, drinking, you know, an
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: eight ball of Star Hill is not good for your liver.
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: I think we can go there. But yeah. And I'm
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: going to get a phone call. I'm sure about that.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: Don't blame Dr.
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: Song for it. That was all on me. But but
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: here's here's the thing. I mean, having a glass of wine,
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: having a beer once in a while isn't considered dangerous
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: for your liver.
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: Any more than.
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: Eating some white bread. But if you eat too much,
• 48:11
  Speaker 4: it will. I know people who have died of cirrhosis
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: of the liver and never drank a drop. They were
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: temperance marchers. And it was just their other things in
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: their diet that did it. Yeah.
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: You're absolutely correct.
• 48:25
  Speaker 25: You've always heard the term, you know, everything in moderation.
• 48:28
  Speaker 25: And you actually bring up a good point.
• 48:29
  Speaker 21: We're talking about alcohol.
• 48:31
  Speaker 25: Alcohol definitely can damage your liver, can cause cirrhosis, can
• 48:35
  Speaker 25: cause liver cancer. But that's actually not the most common
• 48:38
  Speaker 25: cause in the United States.
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 48:40
  Speaker 25: I think what people don't realize is that hepatitis C
• 48:44
  Speaker 25: is the most common cause in the United States and
• 48:47
  Speaker 25: around the world is hepatitis B. But not only that,
• 48:51
  Speaker 25: it's fatty liver disease. We slink to diabetes, being overweight,
• 48:57
  Speaker 25: high blood pressure. They also can cause liver disease. So
• 49:01
  Speaker 25: it's not about just drinking too much, because many people,
• 49:05
  Speaker 25: they don't drink, but they still develop liver disease, liver cirrhosis,
• 49:10
  Speaker 25: and then liver cancer.
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: And you mentioned, you said, just because you have some
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: liver issues, cirrhosis, whatever, or even the beginnings of it,
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: doesn't mean you're going to get cancer. What are you know,
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: what are telltale signs though? Um, I know people say, Oh,
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: he looks like his liver is swollen, things like that. Um,
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: you know, what are telltale signs, feelings, things like that,
• 49:34
  Speaker 4: that might give you a pause to change some of
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: the things you're doing.
• 49:40
  Speaker 25: I think the key point is that liver cancer or
• 49:43
  Speaker 25: cirrhosis can often have no symptoms. The challenge is that everyone,
• 49:47
  Speaker 25: you can feel well and you can still have cirrhosis
• 49:50
  Speaker 25: or liver cancer. I think people, like you mentioned, you
• 49:53
  Speaker 25: expect to have pain or sometimes losing weight or swelling
• 49:57
  Speaker 25: in your belly, yellowing of your eyes or skin called jaundice.
• 50:01
  Speaker 25: You can have those symptoms, but usually those are late symptoms.
• 50:05
  Speaker 25: I think the key is that When you have these symptoms,
• 50:08
  Speaker 25: you have to get medical attention. But for people that
• 50:12
  Speaker 25: are higher risk, we want to find the cancer before
• 50:14
  Speaker 25: it causes symptoms.
• 50:16
  Speaker 4: Well, is there a blood test? I know that some cancers,
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: I mean, we keep hearing news stories about this one. Oh,
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: we can do a blood test now. Prostate is a
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: popular one for that. Are there ways to test for
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: liver disease and liver cancer before it gets too late?
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: Because all cancers almost... the one thing they all have
• 50:37
  Speaker 4: in common is the earlier you catch them, the better
• 50:41
  Speaker 4: your outcomes become.
• 50:43
  Speaker 25: Yes, that's the tricky part. I think when you go
• 50:46
  Speaker 25: to your family doctor, they routinely get liver function tests.
• 50:50
  Speaker 25: If they're abnormal, it doesn't mean that you have liver damage,
• 50:53
  Speaker 25: but that could be a sign that we have to
• 50:56
  Speaker 25: survey it a little closer.
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: If you have.
• 50:59
  Speaker 25: Chronic liver disease, say hepatitis C or heavy alcohol use,
• 51:03
  Speaker 25: There are tests where we can do ultrasound as well
• 51:06
  Speaker 25: as some, it's called alpha-fetal protein. It's a tumor marker
• 51:10
  Speaker 25: that people can get every six months to a year.
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: Well, I hope it's been a good month. October, it
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: has been Liver Cancer Awareness Month. But I mean, every
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: month should be there, Dr. Song. What's the last thought
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: somebody should take away from our talk about it this morning?
• 51:30
  Speaker 15: Yeah.
• 51:31
  Speaker 25: I think the most important thing is if you have
• 51:33
  Speaker 25: liver disease, ask your doctor, do I really need liver
• 51:38
  Speaker 25: cancer screening? Their answer is yes. And then having that
• 51:41
  Speaker 25: conversation can help us find the cancer when we actually
• 51:44
  Speaker 25: have more options to treat it.
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: And we have a minute here. What sort of things
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: is it? Leafy greens? Is it plant-based? What are things
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: that are proactive about eating that we should be looking at?
• 51:56
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 51:58
  Speaker 25: There's not one sort of diet that was recommended for
• 52:01
  Speaker 25: the liver. I think most people just have to understand that,
• 52:05
  Speaker 25: you know, healthy living, you hear of sort of cutting
• 52:09
  Speaker 25: down on fatty food. But it's more than that. It's
• 52:13
  Speaker 25: your alcohol, smoking, you know, daily exercise. It's not only
• 52:17
  Speaker 25: affecting liver cancer, but many other cancers, which are increased
• 52:22
  Speaker 25: risk because of the lifestyles that we have.
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: Dr.
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: Alan Song, associated with the University of Virginia Cancer Center.
