  Speaker 6: A couple of text messages and emails, and then the
• 0:42
  Speaker 6: promised story. CB just wrote in from uh eloy out
• 0:49
  Speaker 6: there by Phoenix.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: He said. Questions.
• 0:52
  Speaker 6: I've asked several people and got several answers. Even if
• 0:55
  Speaker 6: Speaker Johnson was to swear in at Alita Grivalva, agri Alva. Sorry,
• 1:02
  Speaker 6: I always mess that up. I know it's coming to
• 1:05
  Speaker 6: what can she do as a representative if the house
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: is in recess due to the shutdown. Well, and he
• 1:11
  Speaker 6: will swear in once the shutdown is over, Chuck, And
• 1:17
  Speaker 6: so you hang in there. You know she will be
• 1:20
  Speaker 6: sworn in. It's just you know, shutdown is shutdown, and
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: that's it. This one from hamp Oh, Yeah, I saw
• 1:30
  Speaker 6: this just the news story about there's some leaks from
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: the j six investigations. There, Joel asked about what happened
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: with the clerk's court case against redistricting here in Virginia.
• 1:44
  Speaker 6: I'll catch you up with that, but I do want
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: to follow up because I think this is indicative of it.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Yesterday, or maybe.
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: It was Thursday, Tucker Carlson, the same one who'd got
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: Kevin Roberts in trouble as well, is now under attack
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: because he said something about Venezuelan dictator Nicholas Maduro. And
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: this is what he said. Gay marriage is banned, abortion
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: is banned, sex changes for transgenderism is banned. It's one
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: of the very few countries in the entire Western hemisphere
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: here with those policies. Now, is he saying that being
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: a Marxist dictator that created food riots in your country
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: is good or is he just pointing out that if
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: you want a government that will stop people from being gay,
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: they will also stop you from being able to speak
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: or gather with whoever you like. Think about it, because
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: the reaction is you can't say something nice about Nicholas Maduro.
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: If you want the government to ban abortion, that's the
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: kind of government that can ban abortion.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: And it's a harsh thing to think about. But you
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: know he's going to.
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: Get torched about it because he said it out loud.
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: And we are in this cancel culture world where you
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: can't say. If you want the government to feed everybody,
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: you need this kind of government. If you want government
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: to ban abortion, you're going to need this kind of government.
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: Just goes to what we were saying, so as we
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: give you our first things this morning, Supreme Court Friday
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: approved the administration's emergency request to stop a lower court
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: order requiring full funding of SNAP programs nationwide during the
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: government shutdown, allowing the program to continue with partial payments
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: to states as legal battles unfold. Meanwhile, in shutdown Land,
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: Senate Democrats blocked a plan by Republicans to ensure that
• 3:48

• 3:52
  Speaker 6: by Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, bringing a Modified shut

• 4:01
  Speaker 6: Georgia Senators Raphael Warnock and Jack oss Off and Ben
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: Ray Lujan of New Mexico voted for the bill. Meanwhile,
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: speaking of shutdowns, President Trump ordered the Senate Republicans not
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: to leave Washington until they strike a deal to end
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: this Democrats shutdown, he calls it. He said he would
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: call on them to terminate the filibuster immediately if they
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: couldn't come to a deal, just to take care of
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: our great American workers. As day two of the ten

• 4:40
  Speaker 6: Sean Duffy said that flight reductions could go up to
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: twenty percent if the shutdown isn't resolved soon. He did
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: clarify to the Hill News source that he was speaking
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: hypothetically and that there isn't a plan to do that
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: right now. President Donald Trump said that no US government
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: officials would be attending the Group of twenty summit this
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: year it's being held in South Africa, citing the country's
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: treatment of white farmers. He had long announced that he
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: wouldn't be attending, but it had been assumed that Vice
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: President j. D. Vance would go, and that has been stopped.
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: The Treasury Department has launched an investigation into the misuse
• 5:24

  Speaker 6: Morton Klein weighed in on the fight between Newsmax and
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: the Heritage Foundation, saying that Kevin Roberts should resign Heritage,
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: but he at least said it's because he failed to

  Speaker 5: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our

• 8:22

• 8:31
  Speaker 5: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46

  Speaker 13: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
• 10:01
  Speaker 13: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
• 10:04
  Speaker 13: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,

• 10:23
  Speaker 13: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our

  Speaker 13: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 13: at home, but because of their acute senses. They also
• 10:32
  Speaker 13: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:35
  Speaker 13: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 10:38
  Speaker 13: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's

• 13:23
  Speaker 18: They're so fun your business for me, and there's nothing.
• 13:30
  Speaker 8: But you can't do.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's me, the little voice inside of you working
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: five to nine. That's a amen to that, says A
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: as we gather for hustle in time here Eastern standard.
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: Of course, I hope you at this point whoop you're called.
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: I would be embarrassed to tell you how many clocks
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: in my house still say that it's nine to twenty
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: Eastern time, because well, you know, we just they're not
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: connected to the Internet of things. There one of my
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: favorite clips from this week. I've sat down with Craig
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: Rucker of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow and just
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: a little nugget in there. He's heading to Brazil. He's
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: probably in Brazil now for COP twenty. And I thought
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: of this as we were doing our first things just
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: a moment ago and President Trump and JD. Vans that
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: are all protesting the treatment of white farmers in South Africa,
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: and this Gang of twenty meeting and It made me think,
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: oh gosh, we've got to talk about Craig Rucker going
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: down to COP thirty. And that's not Andrew Cuomo's reunion
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: of his gubernatorial staff.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: No, that's too soon.
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: Really, yeah, well too late now. So COP thirty is
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: the Committee of Partners, This is the Climate Action Group,
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: Tom Steyer, al Gore, all these folks who are pushing
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: global climate change. I'm sure a division of Specter, I
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: mean the World Economic Form.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: God, Joe, stop that.
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: But this was my favorite part of our conversation with
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: him earlier in the week. Craig before he boarded the
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: plane for Brazil.
• 15:29
  Speaker 19: I think I'm pronouncing it correctly. I can find out
• 15:31
  Speaker 19: when I get there. But apparently this cannot house the
• 15:35
  Speaker 19: fifty to seventy thousand delegates. So yeah, Brazil. Yeah, they
• 15:40
  Speaker 19: put in the middle of the rainforest because the lot
• 15:42
  Speaker 19: of the environmental activists to appreciate the rainforest and how
• 15:45
  Speaker 19: important that is. Couldn't get them all in there very easily.
• 15:49
  Speaker 19: Certainly wasn't enough housing, so they started slashing and burning
• 15:53
  Speaker 19: the rainforest and creating a major highway there, and also started.
• 15:57
  Speaker 20: Cutting it down in order to make more housing.
• 15:59
  Speaker 19: The environmental activists could appreciate.
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: The so.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Beautiful.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: I mean, this is why there's no good comedy on
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: television anymore. So the the environmental fascists are going to
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: hold their big get together in Brazil, right where all
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: the German fascists went to hide. Anyway, maybe maybe they
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: have a bunker they could go into down.
• 16:23
  Speaker 21: There where was Adolph's bunker.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: So the eco fascists, the eco Nazis.
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: Are heading where all the other ones went at the
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: end of World War Two and didn't get anyone. Has
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: anyone seen quick note? Has anyone gone to see Neurreenberg?
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: When the only trailer I've seen for Neuremberg it sounds
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: like Freddie Mercury is interviewing Donald Trump's chief of staff.
• 17:00
  Speaker 21: Oh yes, I saw him in nineteen twenty two, and
• 17:04
  Speaker 21: all he wanted to do was make Germany great again.
• 17:07
  Speaker 21: It's like, really, did we make this entire movie to make.
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: Herman Gerring look like Donald Trump or at least Donald
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: Trump's press secretary. I mean, the only thing is they
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: didn't make him look like, you know, Stephen Miller.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Or something along those lines.
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: Please, when that's the two minute trailer you put out
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: for Nuremberg. And there's what's his name, Ramy, the guy
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: who played Freddy Mercury. The reason I said Freddie Mercury
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: is that's all I see him as now is Freddie Mercury.
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: But Ramy is interding interviewing Crow as playing basically a
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: MAGA supporter in a Nazi uniform.
• 17:54
  Speaker 22: Yeah.
• 17:55
  Speaker 21: I saw him in Seen nineteen twenty two and he
• 17:58
  Speaker 21: just wanted to make Germany great again, could Collie?
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: But anyway, so the Eco Nazis are heading to Brazil. Finally,
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: it's like the swallows coming back to Capistrano, and they
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: don't have enough rooms. So they had to cut down
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: the rainforest to make room for the Eco Nazis.
• 18:18
  Speaker 19: They picked a little town in Brazil called the Lem.
• 18:23
  Speaker 19: I think I'm pronouncing it correctly. I can find out
• 18:25
  Speaker 19: when I get there. But apparently this cannot house the
• 18:29
  Speaker 19: fifty to seventy thousand delegates Brazil. Yeah, they put in
• 18:34
  Speaker 19: the middle of the rainforest because the one of the
• 18:37
  Speaker 19: environmental activists to appreciate the rainforest and how.
• 18:39
  Speaker 20: Important that is.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: I want to make this ring all in there very easily.
• 18:43
  Speaker 19: Certainly wasn't enough housing, so they started slashing and burning
• 18:47
  Speaker 19: the rainforest and creating a major highway there and also
• 18:50
  Speaker 19: started cutting it down in order to make more housing
• 18:53
  Speaker 19: so the environmental activists could appreciate the rainforest.
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: So oh, Craig Gruger ce fact. We got to get
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: him up back on next week. But just I want
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: to make that my ring tone.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: I just I thought al.
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: Gore's giant mansion in Tennessee was enough of up yours
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: when it comes to all these environmental Nazis and their
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: their lies, and their their ridiculous mischaracterizations of science. Just
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: like the sciences settled crowd around.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: The clot shot moving on.
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: I just so fun. I'm sorry to have made you
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: wait until the third hour of the program for this
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: text message came in after my bit. So we were
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: talking about with Clark. He opened the can of worms
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: that you know the government is being. You know, we're
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: trying to make this government do what it can't do.
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: My metaphor, the nineteen seventy four duster with a slant
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: six two twenty five is never going to do a
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: thirteen second pass in the quarter mile. This text message
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: from Tony says, the hell you say, give me a
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: couple of bottles of nitrous and I'll have that puppy
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: under ten before.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: All right, all right, I was talking.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: Original o EM Dodge dart okay em two twenty five.
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: All right, But on a serious note, this text message
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: came in. So I suppose that means you support abortion.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: Joe.
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: Jerry. I appreciate you making my point. I didn't say
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: I supported abortion. I said that if you wanted a
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: government that could outlaw it the way it's banned in Venezuela,
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: you need to have a government like Hugo Chavez and
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: Nicholas Maduro started. That's all I was pointing out. And
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: here here we go again this. I mean Tucker Carlson
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: has become this nuclear waste dump that if you mentioned
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: something that he said, then your immediately insert socially inacceptable
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: belief structure. Kevin Roberts of Heritage never said anything anti semitic,
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: he said, you know though, he didn't agree with Nick Fuentes,
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: and nor do I I've Nick, as I've said for
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: my friends in Charlottesville, Virginia, Nick Fuentes is just Jason
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: Kessler with a better personality, and I mean, in air
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: quotes better. He's he's not as dull to listen to
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: but he's just as much a hand puppet of the
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: fascists who are trying to make us give up on
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: our constitution by pretending to be MAGA. They're live action
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: role playing LARPing as they flaunch down the street.

• 30:38
  Speaker 6: I wanted to a couple of things. Email from Marguerite.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: Marguerite says the line of the Morning. As much as
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: I appreciated Craig Rucker and his point about the cop
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: twenty people cutting down the rainforest to make room for themselves.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: The phrase you used, the.
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: Eco sees are fucking home like the swallows the Capistrano,
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: is priceless.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: I'm going to go rent. I don't know if you
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: have to rent movies anymore.
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: Marguerite boys from Brazil just for it this morning, he said,
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: Josh Shapiro. And you know, there's all these folks, you know,
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: the prognosticators and the pontificators who.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: Want to tell you they know.
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: But Josh Shapiro yesterday told everyone that he's running for
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: president in twenty twenty eight.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: I know you're not ready for twenty twenty six yet.
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: I mean, you're mad at Elis Stephanic for announcing that
• 31:41
  Speaker 6: she's running for governor in twenty twenty six.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: You're not ready for it yet. Please give you a
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: second here.
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: But here's how I know, Josh Shapiro, who may have
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: waited too long, given the zeal we have for electing
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: Islamists like Zefod Mad Money in New York and Gazala
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: Hashmi in Virginia, all funded by care and all these
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: organs that read Osre Nomani's expose on where Zefad Mad money,
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: got all his money to get elected mayor of New York.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: But do I have the e clip?
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: Josh Shapiro was talking about how his state was ready
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: to go when the court orders came about. The money
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: is conveniently at a food bank there with his secretary
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: of Agriculture and all of that. But as he goes
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: through he starts talking, he gets asked about the Trump
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: administration and President Trump and the Republicans.
• 32:46
  Speaker 26: And look as for jd Vance, I got to say, look,
• 32:50
  Speaker 26: I think America, America has a president and vice president
• 32:55
  Speaker 26: that don't give a damn about all Americans.
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: And that was when I started to realize. I said,
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: hold it, he's thrown down the gauntlet because I have
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: three or four Republicans out there already running against jd Vance.
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: Everything jd Vance does, I get an email saying this.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Guy is awful. We need a better successor.
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: And so when I heard Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania saying this,
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: they have made.
• 33:20
  Speaker 20: That crystal clear.
• 33:22
  Speaker 26: And I mean, at least with Donald Trump, he's transparent
• 33:27
  Speaker 26: about that.
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: And I was like, well, you know, it's almost a
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: compliment from a guy like Shapiro, meaning that his backhanded
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: compliment is, well, at least Donald Trump tells you he
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: doesn't care about you.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Have you heard him say that? I haven't either, But
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: that's just Josh was on a roll.
• 33:46
  Speaker 22: Jd Vance is a total phony.
• 33:50
  Speaker 26: And let me explain why jd Vance.
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: Is going to be running against me for president in
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty eight.
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm sorry that was I said the quiet
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: part out loud, deadn't I.
• 34:00
  Speaker 26: Josh rose to some prominence by writing a book about
• 34:05
  Speaker 26: growing up in Appalachia, where there's a whole lot of
• 34:07
  Speaker 26: people who get snat He made millions of dollars on
• 34:13
  Speaker 26: the backs of telling their stories, and then he turned
• 34:16
  Speaker 26: his damn back on those very people who he likes
• 34:20
  Speaker 26: to write about.
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: And I want to pick that a part out as well,
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: because we had a bit of Friday Mornings program about
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: exactly that, and I think it ties with this whole
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: we want the government to do things for us, regardless
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: of which political party it is.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: But he just listened to that.
• 34:44
  Speaker 6: That was focus group, that was rehearsed, that's been run
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: past several political consultants. That's the beginning claxons of the
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: Shapiro for President campaign. Now I feel for the brother.
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: I think he may have waited too long. He should
• 35:00
  Speaker 6: have run against Kamala Harris because now we start electing
• 35:03
  Speaker 6: all these Islamists. You sure you know you want a
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: practicing Jew as your candidate. I mean, come on, ask
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: Tucker Carlson what he thinks.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: That was a joke.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: Son, Why ain't you laughing? I say, I say, look
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: at me when I'm talking to you. No, except except
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: for you who are driving, don't. Don't look at the radio.
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: But his point about what jd. Vance has done to Appalachia.
• 35:35
  Speaker 6: By the way, I learned quickly as a New Yorker
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: how to sound like a Northerner when you say Appalachia
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: versus Appalachia.
• 35:43
  Speaker 26: Where there's a whole lot of people who get snat
• 35:46
  Speaker 26: He made millions of dollars on the backs of telling
• 35:51
  Speaker 26: their stories, and then he turned his damn back on
• 35:55
  Speaker 26: those very people.
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: Did He is trying to reinvigorate an economy so people
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: don't need snap better. See this is what mister Shapiro.
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: Governor Shapiro is saying that you are never ever ever
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: going to live in a world where you don't need
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: supplemental nutrition assistance program? Is this the morning in the
• 36:18
  Speaker 6: Great Society that Lyndon Baines Johnson promised us, where we
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: all get a government handout. Is that the equity Lyndon
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: Johnson told us about sixty years ago when he launched
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: the Great Society. But that's what John Shapiro is saying
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: is you are in Appalachia. Are you are never ever, ever,
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: ever ever going to be able to fend for yourself?
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: And JD.
• 36:47
  Speaker 6: Vance's attempts to help reinvigorate an economy where you don't
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: need snap anymore is.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Letting you down.
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: Somewhere, by the way, you have a minute before the
• 36:59
  Speaker 6: break coming up here, I have to announce that the
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: Vexit campaign has relaunched here in our flagship area. This
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: goes back to well the time just before COVID, right
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: around the good old days in Virginia where our governor
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: the pediatrician talked about leaving a dying baby on accounter
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: to have a conversation with its parents. There was a
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: movement based on the Blexit movement, which was Black Conservatives. Tatum, Oh,
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: officer Tatum is great, We should have we had him
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: on Brandon Tatum is awesome. But anyway, we started a
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: Vexit movement where a bunch of Eastern Party Western Virginia
• 37:43
  Speaker 6: counties where the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: actually are had petitioned and we're talking about seceding from
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: Virginia to join what we started calling Best Virginia. Well,
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: now a Best Virginia senator has announced a new vexit resolution.

• 44:19
  Speaker 3: Now listen to the lyrics of this for a second
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: is you can.
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: Have West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains NA.
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: So as you as you consider this Vexit movement, where
• 44:37
  Speaker 6: areas like Stanton and Waynesboro and Harrisonburg and all the
• 44:42
  Speaker 6: the Western Virginia which I believe was the original lyrics.
• 44:46
  Speaker 6: You know, obviously John Denver not here to confirm or deny,
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: but I believe the song it just didn't fit, you know, rhythmically,
• 44:54
  Speaker 6: because the Blue Ridge Mountains in the Shenandoah River are
• 44:57
  Speaker 6: actually in Western Virginia, not West Virginia. But if that
• 45:03
  Speaker 6: may be the most controversial thing I'd say this morning,
• 45:06
  Speaker 6: but the Vexit movement is back. Senator Rose of West
• 45:10
  Speaker 6: Virginia has reintroduced legislation that would welcome and create a
• 45:15
  Speaker 6: constitutional path for all these counties along the Best Virginia border,
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: as they call it, to leave Virginia and join their
• 45:24
  Speaker 6: conservative brethren and sister in in West Virginia. It's a
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: good times, great oldies when that happens. TSO Trans Siberian

  Speaker 6: Orchestra Tour is hitting the road this week. First shows
• 45:37
  Speaker 6: the founding member. One of the founding members, Jeff Plate,
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: is the drummer and he's on with us. Jeff, thank
• 45:44
  Speaker 6: you for the tickets and thank you for joining us.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: How are you doing.
• 45:47
  Speaker 20: I'm doing great, job, doing great, thank you.
• 45:49
  Speaker 6: Rehearsals they going well. You know, it's interesting, I've done
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: this for so long. I remember when you rehearsals began
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: at the end of September, and it seems like you
• 46:01
  Speaker 6: guys are getting so good at knowing each other that
• 46:03
  Speaker 6: you don't need as much time in the rehearsal studio
• 46:06
  Speaker 6: as you used to.
• 46:08
  Speaker 29: Well, rehearsal begins really the beginning of November, you know,
• 46:11
  Speaker 29: right right at the very very end of October, beginning
• 46:13
  Speaker 29: of November. And yes, to your point, we've we've been
• 46:16
  Speaker 29: doing this for a long time. I've been here from
• 46:18
  Speaker 29: the beginning. It's been thirty years that I've been made
• 46:21
  Speaker 29: part of this organization. And as far as the Trans
• 46:24
  Speaker 29: Siberian Orchestra cast members, I mean, we've we have two
• 46:29
  Speaker 29: different touring groups, which there's an East Coast group and
• 46:32
  Speaker 29: a West Coast group, so there's there's quite an army
• 46:36
  Speaker 29: of people in the just in the cast, but most
• 46:39
  Speaker 29: of these people have been with us now for twelve
• 46:41
  Speaker 29: plus years, so everybody is well versed on what's going
• 46:44
  Speaker 29: on musically. You know, the singers are all up to
• 46:47
  Speaker 29: speed vocally, everything is is you know, we show up
• 46:51
  Speaker 29: the rehearsal and.
• 46:52
  Speaker 20: We've done this music so many times before.
• 46:55
  Speaker 29: It doesn't take a whole lot of time to get
• 46:57
  Speaker 29: that back up to speed. But the real intense part
• 47:00
  Speaker 29: of what we do in rehearsals is the production side
• 47:02
  Speaker 29: of it, where you know, delighting, the lasers, the video,
• 47:06
  Speaker 29: all of the cues, the pyro, et cetera. There's just
• 47:09
  Speaker 29: a lot to be coordinated with the band and with
• 47:11
  Speaker 29: the production team. And this is why these shows look
• 47:14
  Speaker 29: fantastic and do so well every year.
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: Well, in the first half of it is always a
• 47:19
  Speaker 6: story arc, as the very first Trans Siberian Orchestra album
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: thirty years ago, as you said, Jeff, was a story
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: arc it began, and you know, it was truly the
• 47:28
  Speaker 6: rock operas that we grew up with in the seventies
• 47:31
  Speaker 6: and eighties, you know, And so I'm sure creating that
• 47:36
  Speaker 6: also takes a bit of time, kind of you know,
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: working out what story are you going to tell with
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: the first part of the program, and then you know,
• 47:44
  Speaker 6: you guys just sort of go through the catalog in
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: the second half and so much of it. I was
• 47:49
  Speaker 6: Jeff talking a couple of weeks back twenty five years
• 47:54
  Speaker 6: of Beethoven's Last Night, that movement into more of the
• 47:59
  Speaker 6: classical realm as well. So how is the story coming
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: together for the first part of the show.
• 48:07
  Speaker 29: Oh great, I mean we're doing the Ghosts of Christmas Eve.
• 48:11
  Speaker 29: This story we've I mean, this story is based on
• 48:14
  Speaker 29: the on the television show that we recorded back in
• 48:16
  Speaker 29: nineteen ninety nine. You can find this on a slew
• 48:19
  Speaker 29: of different channels during the holiday season. I mean, people
• 48:22
  Speaker 29: were emailing me last week that they were watching He already.
• 48:25
  Speaker 6: So Davis, you know, the late great Ozzie Davis is
• 48:30
  Speaker 6: the narrator.
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: It's amazing.
• 48:32
  Speaker 20: Yeah, it's awesome.
• 48:34
  Speaker 29: So so we've done this.
• 48:37
  Speaker 20: We've done this several times before. It goes over great
• 48:39
  Speaker 20: with the audience.
• 48:40
  Speaker 29: The band loves performing the show, so that's kind of
• 48:43
  Speaker 29: kind of speaks for itself. And like I mentioned earlier,
• 48:45
  Speaker 29: the production side of that gets really more involved. Trans
• 48:49
  Speaker 29: Iberian Orchestra also is not just a holiday project. You know,
• 48:53
  Speaker 29: Paul recorded three non seasonal albums too.
• 48:57
  Speaker 20: And they told me this last night.
• 48:59
  Speaker 29: This is the twenty fifth anniversary of that album, and
• 49:02
  Speaker 29: we are going to honor that album too in the
• 49:04
  Speaker 29: second half of the show with a great album with.
• 49:06
  Speaker 20: The medley of songs. It is fantastic.
• 49:09
  Speaker 29: And hey, you know, this was a very interesting time
• 49:13
  Speaker 29: for TSL. Was you know, around the year two thousand.
• 49:16
  Speaker 29: We had just done our first tour. It was obvious
• 49:21
  Speaker 29: Paul had created something musically and sonically that was a hit,
• 49:25
  Speaker 29: and now it was establishing the live show.
• 49:28
  Speaker 20: And from the very first.
• 49:30
  Speaker 29: Time that we went on stage, it was obvious that
• 49:33
  Speaker 29: this was going to be a hit to the extent
• 49:36
  Speaker 29: that it's been. I don't think anybody imagine that, maybe
• 49:40
  Speaker 29: except Paul. But yeah, two thousand was the year we
• 49:43
  Speaker 29: did Beethoven's Last Night, and great time in the studio
• 49:47
  Speaker 29: doing this this album, and I've always loved the music
• 49:49
  Speaker 29: and the story behind it.
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: You reminded me of a conversation and I know that
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: you guys more than us here on the receiving end
• 49:58
  Speaker 6: and the beneficial end of Trans Siberian Orchestra MSS Paul,
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: but I remember a conversation about what goes into the show,
• 50:06
  Speaker 6: and he said to me once that he wanted a
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: stadium size production in in a theater size venue.
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 50:16
  Speaker 6: And he said he split the he split the difference
• 50:18
  Speaker 6: that we'll play these you know, basketball arenas, uh, so
• 50:22
  Speaker 6: you can get a.
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: Little bit more room in there. But he wanted that
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: feeling of an.
• 50:26
  Speaker 6: Of a of a football stadium with the pyrotechnics and
• 50:30
  Speaker 6: the cranes and all the different things going on that
• 50:34
  Speaker 6: usually only see it these massive shows in a much
• 50:38
  Speaker 6: more intensely intimate area. And I think that really translates
• 50:42
  Speaker 6: still to this day.
• 50:45
  Speaker 20: I think the man accomplished what he wanted to do.
• 50:48
  Speaker 29: We've we've gotten Jig to the point where we really
• 50:53
  Speaker 29: can't get much bigger, if if.
• 50:55
  Speaker 20: We can get any bigger at all.
• 50:57
  Speaker 29: And and a big part of that is just this
• 51:00
  Speaker 29: interesting problem we have of such a demand for the show.
• 51:04
  Speaker 20: When you're doing two shows a.
• 51:05
  Speaker 29: Day in a city, and then the crew tears it
• 51:09
  Speaker 29: down that night and you're up the next day in
• 51:12
  Speaker 29: another city at three o'clock to do two more shows,
• 51:15
  Speaker 29: you know, there comes a limit to how big and
• 51:17
  Speaker 29: how much you can actually travel with. So I think
• 51:21
  Speaker 29: we've kind of reached the limit when it comes to that.
• 51:24
  Speaker 29: But having said that, the management team, the production team,
• 51:28
  Speaker 29: every year they come up with something different for the show.
• 51:30
  Speaker 29: You know, TSO over the years has had a certain look,
• 51:34
  Speaker 29: but there's always there's always some new lighting schemes, there's
• 51:37
  Speaker 29: always some new video, there's some new effects.
• 51:40
  Speaker 20: There's always something different along with this.
• 51:42
  Speaker 29: And you know, speaking of Paul, he insisted that never
• 51:46
  Speaker 29: are we going to repeat the show with the same production,
• 51:49
  Speaker 29: with the same look. Every year is going to be
• 51:51
  Speaker 29: different sonically, it's going to be different visually. And you
• 51:55
  Speaker 29: know this is why our really you know, hardcore base
• 51:58
  Speaker 29: comes back every year.
• 52:00
  Speaker 19: Ye.
• 52:00
  Speaker 20: So that's awesome. He had a big He had a
• 52:04
  Speaker 20: lot of big ideas, and the man certainly accomplished most
• 52:07
  Speaker 20: of us. It's pretty impressive.
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 52:09
  Speaker 6: Jeff played the drummer for all of the incarnations. Also,
• 52:15
  Speaker 6: just back from a sabotage tour. Go look up sabotage kids.
• 52:19
  Speaker 6: This is from that Beethoven's Last Night. It's called Requiem
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: the Fifth. And just remember you can go get tickets
• 52:31

• 52:33

  Speaker 15: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
• 52:53
  Speaker 15: compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
• 52:57
  Speaker 15: California based chiropractor with more than three years of experience,
• 53:01
  Speaker 15: this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
• 53:05
  Speaker 15: or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
• 53:09
  Speaker 15: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
• 53:12
  Speaker 15: the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions. The
• 53:16
  Speaker 15: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device
• 53:20
  Speaker 15: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
• 53:24
  Speaker 15: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
• 53:27
  Speaker 15: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
• 53:30
  Speaker 15: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
• 53:33
  Speaker 15: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
• 53:36
  Speaker 15: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your home,
• 53:38
