Speaker 1: First Thing Today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas,
0:07
Speaker 1: the second most famous Thomas and Charlottesville Jewart.
0:10
Speaker 2: Said, steal me Stem.
0:13
Speaker 3: You have a day at least for work, when the
0:16
Speaker 3: sun comes up, drops a pet to school.
0:20
Speaker 2: Joey, is everything a dream?
0:22
Speaker 3: Do all the treasure seventies, the one.
0:26
Speaker 4: That Joe's allies smile.
0:28
Speaker 5: He only as.
0:33
Speaker 6: Joe thank you for letting him be of service to
0:35
Speaker 6: you this morning.
0:38
Speaker 7: And every morning at four.
0:40
Speaker 6: Three four eight eight two four two one seven, because
0:44
Speaker 6: I will tell you what went on last night, and
0:47
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what I see in the tea leaves,
0:49
Speaker 6: and most importantly, I want to hear how it's impacting
0:52
Speaker 6: you where you are.
0:54
Speaker 8: They are already trying to spin this as an action
0:58
Speaker 8: of self.
0:59
Speaker 6: Defense, because certainly defending yourself again somebody driving at you
1:03
Speaker 6: in a car is well, why would you do that?
1:07
Speaker 7: You mean, police officer?
1:09
Speaker 8: You and I have a message for Ice to Ice
1:14
Speaker 8: get out of Minneapolis.
1:17
Speaker 6: As Jacob Fry, the Mayor of Minneapolis, in his Learned
1:21
Speaker 6: consult after admitting at the onset that he knew nothing
1:25
Speaker 6: about what was going on except was a lot.
1:27
Speaker 8: Of information that is swirling around right now and we
1:32
Speaker 8: collectively are going to do everything possible to get to
1:36
Speaker 8: the bottom.
1:36
Speaker 6: Of this, which we haven't yet, to get justice, whatever
1:41
Speaker 6: that means.
1:42
Speaker 8: And to make sure that there is an investigation that
1:45
Speaker 8: is conducted in full.
1:46
Speaker 7: But what we do know is that we don't know anything.
1:50
Speaker 8: Is that a thirty seven year old woman is dead.
1:54
Speaker 7: Okay, facts and evidence.
1:56
Speaker 2: That much is clear, and that she was shot by ice.
2:01
Speaker 6: And to be fair, he should have stopped talking there,
2:04
Speaker 6: but he didn't because he's a politician and he had
2:07
Speaker 6: to get his populism on.
2:11
Speaker 8: They are already trying to spin this as an action
2:15
Speaker 8: of self defense. Having seen the video of myself, I
2:20
Speaker 8: want to tell everybody directly that.
2:22
Speaker 7: Is because seeing a video.
2:26
Speaker 6: Shot by somebody who is a block and a half
2:28
Speaker 6: away and probably part of the protest group, I'm sorry.
2:34
Speaker 6: They weren't a protest group. They were organized to defend
2:38
Speaker 6: their neighbors.
2:39
Speaker 7: And I'm not saying it right.
2:41
Speaker 6: Really interesting, but too long for a one spot. Thank
2:45
Speaker 6: Scott in Virginia Beach writes in on this and do
2:49
Speaker 6: they one?
2:51
Speaker 7: Just one? All right?
2:52
Speaker 6: Scott's going to have to hear this on the podcast, though,
2:55
Speaker 6: but it was interested, he said, interesting. Take I think
2:59
Speaker 6: a lot of radicalization happens in spaces where it's all talk.
3:03
Speaker 6: Everything is hypothetical. It's easy to LARP as a revolutionary.
3:07
Speaker 6: That's live action role play for those who don't know
3:10
Speaker 6: the lingo as someone who stands against oppression. There's a
3:14
Speaker 6: lack of seriousness about it all. You start to believe
3:17
Speaker 6: the memes, you start to believe you're a hero, you're
3:20
Speaker 6: the main character. Then you convince yourself to do something
3:23
Speaker 6: really dumb, like pull your car in front of police officers.
3:28
Speaker 6: They draw their guns, and the LARP crumbles. You're not
3:31
Speaker 6: that person. This is real life and those are real guns.
3:35
Speaker 6: Nothing but get the hell out of here, screams in
3:38
Speaker 6: her brain. She probably didn't see the officer standing in
3:41
Speaker 6: front of her car as see smash the gas. He
3:45
Speaker 6: was the one holding the guns. So if you're saying
3:47
Speaker 6: that she knew that the meme that she was living
3:54
Speaker 6: was coming crashing down because guns got drawn on her.
3:57
Speaker 6: The one gun was the guy in front. So I
4:01
Speaker 6: don't know how that all plays out, but I get
4:03
Speaker 6: what you're saying. And yes, there is a big problem
4:06
Speaker 6: in the activist class of folks who want to believe
4:11
Speaker 6: that they are Martin Luther King Junior, because we're running out.
4:20
Speaker 6: We are in this day and age, we don't have
4:23
Speaker 6: all that many things to really protest or to really
4:30
Speaker 6: do anything about. And break down that some more in
4:34
Speaker 6: a moment or two, but we had to run out
4:36
Speaker 6: our first things here. Obviously, the tragic shooting of an
4:42
Speaker 6: activist who had been called out to quote defend her
4:45
Speaker 6: neighbors during ice enforcement activities in Minneapolis, was shot when
4:50
Speaker 6: she smashed the gas as the poster noted, and drove
4:55
Speaker 6: towards a Homeland Security officer and ICE officer who shot
4:59
Speaker 6: and killed thirty seven year old Renee Nicole Macklin good Christinome,
5:05
Speaker 6: secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said they are
5:08
Speaker 6: not going anywhere and they have more than two thousand
5:10
Speaker 6: officers in the area. Meanwhile, in Salt Lake City, outside
5:15
Speaker 6: of a church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints,
5:19
Speaker 6: a shooting took place in the parking lot, killing two
5:22
Speaker 6: people and injuring six others, several in critical condition. Police
5:27
Speaker 6: say they do not believe the shooter was posing any
5:31
Speaker 6: enemis towards the church, but they also do not believe
5:35
Speaker 6: the shooting was random.
5:38
Speaker 7: Health secretary Robert F.
5:40
Speaker 6: Kennedy Junior and Agriculture Secretary Brook Rollins have introduced less
5:44
Speaker 6: of a pyramid and more of a well, just a
5:47
Speaker 6: list of things you should eat more of. Americans should
5:50
Speaker 6: eat more whole foods and protein, and fewer highly processed
5:55
Speaker 6: foods and certainly less added sugar. It's all part of
5:58
Speaker 6: the new Dietary Guidelines for twenty twenty five to twenty thirty.
6:03
Speaker 6: This will also update recommendations for federal nutrition programs and policies.
6:11
Speaker 6: President Trump signed to executive orders suspending US Board for
6:15
Speaker 6: sixty six organizations, including UN agencies, commissions, and advisory panels
6:21
Speaker 6: that focus on climate, labor, migration, and other issues. The
6:26
Speaker 6: administration is categorized as catering to diversity and woke initiatives.
6:32
Speaker 6: President also Wednesday proposed setting military spending at one point
6:36
Speaker 6: five trillion dollars for twenty twenty seven, citing troubled and
6:41
Speaker 6: dangerous times. The current military budget is just under one
6:46
Speaker 6: trillion dollars at nine hundred and one billion. And those
6:51
Speaker 6: are some of our first things for this Thursday morning
6:54
Speaker 6: here along the Talk Media Network. Thank you for taking

Speaker 7: So everyone being a superhero. As I was reading this, uh, this.
13:51
Speaker 6: Characterization of the protests that turned deadly in Minnesota, and again,
13:59
Speaker 6: as we did an hour and a half ago, I
14:01
Speaker 6: can't help but draw back to the deadly the protests
14:06
Speaker 6: that turned deadly and took the lives of two state
14:09
Speaker 6: troopers and an activist here in Charlottesville. Because of how
14:16
Speaker 6: we're being radicalized, and I want to get into that
14:18
Speaker 6: a little bit. We also have a lot of coverage
14:20
Speaker 6: here from the Consumer Electronics Show and of all things
14:23
Speaker 6: and all Christendom. Why would America two fifty the Cessquis
14:28
Speaker 6: Centennial celebration be here kicking things off for the two
14:32
Speaker 6: hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America?
14:34
Speaker 7: Why would you choose a technology fest?
14:38
Speaker 6: And we'll tell you why in a little bit about
14:39
Speaker 6: our friend James Luck, who knows a thing or two
14:42
Speaker 6: about technology, and they certainly have applied it to an
14:46
Speaker 6: industry they've been in since nineteen sixty one, when gosh,
14:50
Speaker 6: when the jcsgold dot com was just the Jefferson coin Shop. James,
14:55
Speaker 6: having your own dedicated phone line was considered high tech
14:59
Speaker 6: for a business. Now, boy, websites and LinkedIn and PayPal
15:05
Speaker 6: and all this other stuff going on. Technology has really
15:08
Speaker 6: changed the way you guys help people invest in gold
15:11
Speaker 6: and silver.
15:11
Speaker 24: Right, That's exactly right, Joe.
15:14
Speaker 25: We really are trying to bring technology into such an
15:18
Speaker 25: old fashioned, no tech investment of gold and silver. It
15:23
Speaker 25: is one of the oldest forms of money, so we
15:26
Speaker 25: are trying to digitalize that and bring that to the
15:30
Speaker 25: technology world.
15:31
Speaker 6: Well, it is proof that tech technology is just a tool.
15:35
Speaker 6: It's this most current tool to help people invest in
15:40
Speaker 6: gold and silver at JCS.
15:42
Speaker 7: Gold dot com.
15:43
Speaker 6: You can shop there, you can buy there, you can
15:45
Speaker 6: invest there, but it really wants you to talk to
15:47
Speaker 6: the live ware, which is my friends in tech. They say,
15:50
Speaker 6: you know, you have your hardware, your software, but then
15:54
Speaker 6: the liveware, or as they put it, picnic problem in chair,
15:58
Speaker 6: not in.
15:59
Speaker 7: Computer, the live where is who's.
16:02
Speaker 6: On the phone at four three four nine seven nine
16:05
Speaker 6: coin like James there?
16:06
Speaker 7: How are gold and silver doing?
16:10
Speaker 24: Gold and silver are down just slightly today.
16:13
Speaker 25: Gold is down half a percent, down twenty eight dollars
16:16
Speaker 25: to four thousand, four hundred and twenty eight dollars. Silver,
16:20
Speaker 25: on the other hand, it keeps bouncing around between seventy
16:24
Speaker 25: four and eighty dollars.
16:26
Speaker 24: It's got quite a range of a channel here.
16:29
Speaker 25: It's currently down three and a quarter percent to seventy
16:33
Speaker 25: five dollars and sixty five cents down two and a
16:36
Speaker 25: half dollars so far this morning. So I'm sure people
16:38
Speaker 25: are gonna be taking advantage of that. They're at Jaseisgold
16:43
Speaker 25: dot com on these little dips that really do seem
16:47
Speaker 25: to buy these discounts, you know, and talk about technology.
16:50
Speaker 24: You know about years and years ago, my grandfather used.
16:54
Speaker 26: To call into New York in the morning to get
16:57
Speaker 26: the price of gold, and that was whatever price he
17:01
Speaker 26: got in the morning over the phone from New York,
17:03
Speaker 26: that was the price of gold that he you know,
17:06
Speaker 26: bought and sold on from the whole rest of the day,
17:08
Speaker 26: you know.
17:08
Speaker 24: I mean, he would have no idea that we could that.
17:12
Speaker 25: We could get live prices throughout the entire day on
17:15
Speaker 25: a live price board to advertise the customers that updated
17:18
Speaker 25: in real time.
17:19
Speaker 24: It really is come a long way.
17:21
Speaker 6: But on the other side of it, not to sound
17:24
Speaker 6: like a luddyite, but the whole point of gold and
17:26
Speaker 6: silver is not to be like buying the bounce, you know,
17:29
Speaker 6: sitting there saying, oh it's down, let me buy a bunch,
17:31
Speaker 6: you know, which is good. I mean, you want to
17:33
Speaker 6: buy when there's a discount, but you don't want to
17:35
Speaker 6: be selling just because stuff went down a little bit
17:38
Speaker 6: because of things like your charts and graphs that show
17:41
Speaker 6: how gold continues to climb over decades.
17:45
Speaker 27: In memoriam, that's exactly right, and that way you know
17:49
Speaker 27: that you're getting the most accurate pricing by having that
17:53
Speaker 27: live up to date pricing and knows that oh yeah, there's.
17:56
Speaker 28: No extra spread in there, there's no extra premium for
17:59
Speaker 28: transparency of this is the market price of gold and
18:03
Speaker 28: this is what we're selling it for, so that customers
18:06
Speaker 28: have really enjoyed that.
18:08
Speaker 24: And you're right, this is a long term hold.
18:11
Speaker 25: This is something that's a hedge against the dollar, hedge
18:14
Speaker 25: against inflation, and something that's a preservation of wealth that
18:18
Speaker 25: you can pass down to generation generation.
18:21
Speaker 6: I appreciate it, James. You have a great morning and
18:23
Speaker 6: we'll talk to you again soon. You two, Joe, Thanks
18:26
Speaker 6: jcsgold dot com or four three four nine seven coins.
18:33
Speaker 6: So everyone's a superhero. And I've said this philosophically in
18:39
Speaker 6: previous episodes of this program that you can tell a
18:44
Speaker 6: lot about a way a society is operating by the
18:47
Speaker 6: mythology that they create. And what is our most popular
18:52
Speaker 6: form of mythology the superhero story.
18:58
Speaker 7: And we we.
19:01
Speaker 6: We're filling our literature with stories of herculean efforts.
19:12
Speaker 7: And you know, heroes big and small. I mean, it's.
19:18
Speaker 6: It's not just Iron Man or Batman, it's it's even
19:26
Speaker 6: you know, Jim cavisl rescuing people from human trafficking, and
19:36
Speaker 6: so our mythology is full of these folks doing heroic things,
19:40
Speaker 6: and and we look around and we judge ourselves as
19:44
Speaker 6: being woefully unheroic in our days, in our efforts, when
19:52
Speaker 6: that's not true at all. If there's been a theme
19:55
Speaker 6: that's been consistently run through all the different styles and
19:59
Speaker 6: form mats of the Joe Thomas in the Morning Program
20:04
Speaker 6: is you are the hero, not me, not the congressman
20:10
Speaker 6: on the phone, not the sheriff on the phone. You
20:13
Speaker 6: are the heroic one. And it's not because of things
20:17
Speaker 6: you do. It's because of all the things you do. Sure,
20:24
Speaker 6: some of it manifests in volunteering at a soup kitchen,
20:28
Speaker 6: or contributing clothes to a homeless shelter, or hiring somebody
20:35
Speaker 6: that most other people in your neighborhood wouldn't hire, giving
20:39
Speaker 6: him a chance, or mentoring a kid through the Boys
20:42
Speaker 6: and Girls club. Sure, those are great manifestations of heroic acts.
20:51
Speaker 6: But just as an abstrac just pop back into my head,
20:55
Speaker 6: we were walking through the security gates here at the
20:57
Speaker 6: Consumer Electronics Show just yesterday, just yesterday, and there's probably
21:05
Speaker 6: two million people here right now, there's four point five
21:09
Speaker 6: million square feet of display and convention space being filled
21:14
Speaker 6: by this, and I'll bet you there's one human for
21:16
Speaker 6: each one of those square feet, maybe one for every
21:20
Speaker 6: two or three square feet. The multitudes are all over
21:26
Speaker 6: the place here, and we act like it. And if
21:29
Speaker 6: there's been a population full of people who will bump
21:32
Speaker 6: into you because they're paying more attention to their phone
21:35
Speaker 6: in their hand than you, it's right here. You have
21:39
Speaker 6: millions of people in millions of square footage of display area,
21:44
Speaker 6: and nobody's paying attention to the people around them. My wife,
21:47
Speaker 6: as we were walking through the door, just said to
21:49
Speaker 6: the security guard, oh, have a great day, thanks for
21:52
Speaker 6: everything you do. And the woman stopped, grabbed her arm
21:55
Speaker 6: and said, thank you for saying that.
21:58
Speaker 7: That's heroism.

23:10
Speaker 19: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
23:14
Speaker 19: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
23:17
Speaker 19: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
23:21
Speaker 19: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
23:23
Speaker 19: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
23:26
Speaker 19: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
23:29
Speaker 19: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
23:31
Speaker 19: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too.
23:36
Speaker 19: The vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
23:38
Speaker 19: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
23:41
Speaker 19: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
23:44
Speaker 19: your fuel choices around, say every third tank full, you
23:47
Speaker 19: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
23:50
Speaker 19: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
23:53
Speaker 19: Just don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them

Speaker 7: A message from female man, I come from.
28:08
Speaker 5: The sounds.
28:11
Speaker 1: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today.
28:19
Speaker 2: I'm not leaving until I get justice.
28:21
Speaker 21: Not exactly justice, I suppose more like preferential treatment.
28:23
Speaker 6: But I'm not leaving until thank you for joining us here.
28:26
Speaker 6: Line from the Consumer Electronics Show. And I think electronics
28:29
Speaker 6: plays a.
28:30
Speaker 7: Role in this.
28:30
Speaker 6: And I'm not slagging the existence of it. That's like
28:33
Speaker 6: slagging the existence of a ratcheting wrench, because technology is
28:39
Speaker 6: an inanimate object, just the same way a firearm is.
28:44
Speaker 6: But I love this this missive on the LARPing of
28:49
Speaker 6: this woman in and we see it all over the place,
28:53
Speaker 6: and how the newspaper coverage said there was no organized protest.
28:58
Speaker 6: It was just a bunch of community members looking out
29:01
Speaker 6: for their neighbors. I'm sorry, that's an organized protest. These
29:05
Speaker 6: are these the middle aged Caucasian women and their flash
29:09
Speaker 6: mobs showing up when somebody texts them from the mayor's
29:14
Speaker 6: office saying there's ice coming. So Jacob Fry can stick
29:18
Speaker 6: up sock in his profane little mouth about you know
29:23
Speaker 6: who's to blame for this, and justice will be served.
29:26
Speaker 6: This missive that was sent to me from X. No
29:30
Speaker 6: one in this woman's life told her she was on
29:32
Speaker 6: a destructive LARP. She was encouraged by her peer group
29:35
Speaker 6: viral videos of similarly lost radical LARPers getting nothing but
29:40
Speaker 6: praise online. Politicians calling the enforcement of our laws akin
29:45
Speaker 6: to Nazism, calling the laws illegitimate, calling them evil, telling
29:49
Speaker 6: their citizens to make their voices heard. And these are
29:52
Speaker 6: the same disingenuous little sobs that will right the laws.
29:56
Speaker 6: And that's the thing that really has infuriated me about
29:59
Speaker 6: this for a decade or more, is that these little
30:02
Speaker 6: jackasses are the ones who wrote the laws in the
30:05
Speaker 6: first place, and when they don't suit their purpose.
30:07
Speaker 7: They oh the laws are against people.
30:10
Speaker 6: You know, yeah, are there really problems? Read Harvey Silverglades
30:15
Speaker 6: Book three Felonies a day, or listen to this woman.
30:20
Speaker 6: This is the rent tzar, the housing czar in New York,
30:24
Speaker 6: whose mother owns a one point four million dollar home
30:27
Speaker 6: and is a professor at Vanderbilt University, ironically a professor
30:32
Speaker 6: of German studies.
30:33
Speaker 24: But I think.
30:34
Speaker 4: The reality is is that for centuries we've really treated
30:39
Speaker 4: property as an individualized good and not a collective good.
30:45
Speaker 6: And when confronted by the fact that her mom is
30:48
Speaker 6: a high paid university professor with a multimillion dollar home,
30:53
Speaker 6: she ran off crying, she's not a very strong leftist. Apparently,
30:59
Speaker 6: you know, a real left This return to said, well,
31:01
Speaker 6: she's a professor. Of course, she has a fancy home.
31:04
Speaker 6: She's one of the she's a professor. Professors are important.
31:09
Speaker 6: You need to have a home like that if you're
31:11
Speaker 6: going to profess German studies to Americans. I went to
31:14
Speaker 6: what part of Germany German's history she teaches at Vanderbilt.
31:18
Speaker 7: Anyway, let me get to you.
31:19
Speaker 6: At four three four eighty eight two four to two
31:22
Speaker 6: one seven America, two fifty of all places kicked off
31:26
Speaker 6: here at the Consumer Electronics Show, but I think it's
31:29
Speaker 6: appropriate and we'll get into that in a little bit.
31:31
Speaker 7: Good good morning. Who's this hey, Joe, it's Clark. Good morning, Clark.
31:35
Speaker 7: How are you doing, sir?
31:37
Speaker 20: Well, I'm all good. So America two fifty and what
31:42
Speaker 20: we learned from people about two fifty ago was that, uh,
31:48
Speaker 20: from time to time, the tree of liberty.
31:50
Speaker 2: Needs to be watered.
31:51
Speaker 20: And Joe, I'm gonna say, what we learned from yesterday
31:55
Speaker 20: is apparently the tree of Marxist suppression likes to get
32:01
Speaker 20: watered from time to time as well. Oh sure, Now,
32:05
Speaker 20: that woman was thirty seven old, but it took a
32:10
Speaker 20: lot longer than thirty seven years and a lot more
32:14
Speaker 20: marching through a lot of institutions to get her. And
32:20
Speaker 20: how many thousands more just like her that are firmly
32:25
Speaker 20: committed to down with the patriarchy fight for social justice.
32:31
Speaker 20: She was just doing her part, Joe, right, and her
32:34
Speaker 20: what's the demented mind? She was doing her part. Now
32:40
Speaker 20: she's tip of the iceberg. That's what's coming our way.
32:46
Speaker 20: She's not a woe off, she's representative, and it gets
32:50
Speaker 20: worse with those coming behind her.
32:52
Speaker 6: Let me, let me insert something real quick here though,
32:55
Speaker 6: because I don't, because I've watched and I've seen this,
32:58
Speaker 6: and I've taken those care. When we see these flash mobs,
33:03
Speaker 6: the idea is to seem like there's a wave of
33:07
Speaker 6: humanity behind these Marxist authoritarian agendas, when in reality, maybe
33:13
Speaker 6: it's one hundred people. Yeah, on that street corner. One
33:16
Speaker 6: hundred people is a lot, but in a city of
33:18
Speaker 6: multi millions like Minneapolis, it's a drop in the bucket.
33:22
Speaker 6: These are not the voices of the majority of the city.
33:26
Speaker 6: They're just there. Like the mob enforcers used to be
33:30
Speaker 6: in Chicago. They're the ones who are going to break
33:33
Speaker 6: all your stuff unless you give in to them, even
33:36
Speaker 6: though you outnumber them. They'll show up in the middle
33:38
Speaker 6: of the night and break all your stuff. And they're
33:40
Speaker 6: mostly peaceful protests unless you give them their you know,
33:44
Speaker 6: their version of justice.
33:47
Speaker 29: There you go.
33:49
Speaker 20: Now, you said you did a those count where you
33:51
Speaker 20: counting the rings or the noses.
33:55
Speaker 6: It's tough because some noses have multiple rings. They're so yeah, good,
33:59
Speaker 6: good hatch on that. But I go with the actual proboscis.
34:04
Speaker 20: Okay, Well, I don't know. Maybe the number of rings
34:08
Speaker 20: tells you about level of commitment. I'm not sure yet.
34:11
Speaker 20: I ain't studied on it.
34:12
Speaker 6: It's like counting the age of a tree. You got
34:14
Speaker 6: to cut them open to see how many rings they have.
34:16
Speaker 6: You go, yeah, yeah, I'm sure somebody will take that
34:19
Speaker 6: out of context too. Anyway, sir, I appreciate it, but
34:22
Speaker 6: the radicalization of people and the sad thing. I'm going
34:27
Speaker 6: to insert this here my own personal philosophy, but damn it,
34:30
Speaker 6: it's my show and I've survived forty years doing it,
34:33
Speaker 6: so I have to think that I'm hitting a chord.
34:36
Speaker 7: We are heroic. This was my point, is.
34:39
Speaker 6: That women like this are trying to fill some imagined
34:43
Speaker 6: or perhaps gas lit void in their life of feeling
34:48
Speaker 6: like they don't matter and that they're not heroic. And
34:53
Speaker 6: what infuriates me is when I see these folks, whether
34:56
Speaker 6: it's a living wage protest or an open borders protest,
34:59
Speaker 6: and you, oh, somebody should take care of these people,
35:02
Speaker 6: but they're not the ones trying.
35:04
Speaker 7: To take care of it. You want to be a hero.
35:07
Speaker 6: Hire someone you want to be a hero, Build an
35:10
Speaker 6: apartment for them in your basement. You want to be
35:13
Speaker 6: a hero. You let them stay and guard, you know,
35:16
Speaker 6: and watch your kids.
35:17
Speaker 7: While you go to work. You want to be heroic.
35:19
Speaker 7: You do that.
35:20
Speaker 6: You sponsor somebody who wants to come into this country,
35:24
Speaker 6: just like a doctor and his wife sponsored my mother
35:28
Speaker 6: in law when she emigrated to this country. Just like
35:32
Speaker 6: my grandmother, my wife's grandmother sponsored my father in law
35:37
Speaker 6: when he came to this country. You had to put
35:39
Speaker 6: up something to say, I believe this person is going
35:42
Speaker 6: to be a good citizen, and I'm going to stand
35:44
Speaker 6: with them and behind them and next to them as
35:47
Speaker 6: they learn the ways of this country.
35:49
Speaker 7: You want to be a hero, do that.
35:51
Speaker 6: You want to help people get out of the horrific
35:53
Speaker 6: conditions in their home countries.
35:55
Speaker 7: Good on you.
35:56
Speaker 6: There are ways to do it other than driving your
35:59
Speaker 6: suv at an ice officer who's just trying to, you know,
36:02
Speaker 6: protect the actual citizens of a community. I'm sorry, let
36:06
Speaker 6: me put my soapbox away.
36:09
Speaker 20: Well, like I say, Joe, in that woman's case, I'm
36:13
Speaker 20: thinking from the time she was too so took about
36:17
Speaker 20: thirty five years two.
36:21
Speaker 7: I don't know.
36:22
Speaker 20: I'm going to use the word perverted. Ain't that turn
36:24
Speaker 20: away from or something? I'll have to go look that up.
36:27
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, perverted is right, But you know, I know
36:29
Speaker 6: we often use perverted to me sexually. But I think
36:32
Speaker 6: I think her.
36:33
Speaker 20: Views, Yeah, her ideas of what she could do to
36:39
Speaker 20: make a difference.
36:41
Speaker 7: We're perverted over a lifetime, yep.
36:46
Speaker 20: And yeah, like I say, she she was doing her
36:49
Speaker 20: part in her mind.
36:51
Speaker 6: So and it's a shame and it's tragic, but you
36:54
Speaker 6: don't drive your car at somebody. And but this is
36:56
Speaker 6: also a dangerous country because this is what people are
37:00
Speaker 6: being told about, you know, the the justice.
37:03
Speaker 7: System about laws.
37:06
Speaker 6: A law is only applicable if it makes you feel good,
37:09
Speaker 6: I guess, or if you believe in it, you can
37:11
Speaker 6: ignore it. And this all goes back to Barack Obama saying,
37:14
Speaker 6: I'm telling law enforcement they don't have to enforce the
37:17
Speaker 6: drug laws because all of a sudden, law enforcement became
37:21
Speaker 6: a fungible thing. And if a police officer's arresting you,
37:25
Speaker 6: it must be for some other reason than you broke
37:27
Speaker 6: a law, because wet President Obama told us you can
37:30
Speaker 6: pick and choose the laws you enforce. Anyway, I must run,
37:34
Speaker 6: doctor CRK. You have a great morning, sir, keep doing it.
37:38
Speaker 7: And what does band von Ruthless donolage?
37:41
Speaker 9: He starts monologue and he starts like this prepared speech
37:45
Speaker 9: about how feeble I am compared to him.
37:47
Speaker 6: All right, all right, all right, we have so much
37:52
Speaker 6: to get into live from the Consumer Electronics Show this
37:55
Speaker 6: Thursday morning here along the Talk media Network. Thank you
37:58
Speaker 6: for letting me monologue.
38:01
Speaker 10: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting
38:05
Speaker 10: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
38:10
Speaker 10: the police At a time when America's neighborhoods need the
38:13
Speaker 10: protection of police the most, some elected officials would rather
38:17
Speaker 10: create more chaos by playing politics. If you're sick of
38:21
Speaker 10: elected officials caving in to demands of the radical left,
38:24
Speaker 10: you're not alone. It's time we stand up and declare

39:08
Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
39:13
Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
39:19
Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
39:23
Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
39:27
Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
39:32
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:43
Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46
Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

Speaker 33: Hybody, I'm Jack Hannah, and it's always a boy. Growing
41:01
Speaker 33: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
41:05
Speaker 1: I'm not only in awe of.
41:06
Speaker 33: Their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
41:09
Speaker 33: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
41:12
Speaker 33: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
41:15
Speaker 33: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
41:17
Speaker 33: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
41:21
Speaker 33: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
41:23
Speaker 33: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
41:26
Speaker 33: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
41:29
Speaker 33: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
41:32
Speaker 33: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
41:35
Speaker 33: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
41:38
Speaker 33: whom suffer from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
41:41
Speaker 33: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
41:44
Speaker 33: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
41:46
Speaker 33: society and help those in need. So please join me

Speaker 6: Here at the Consumer Electronic Show, brought to you by
44:49
Speaker 6: our friends at McCory Animal Clinic. Because when the tech
44:52
Speaker 6: gets out of hand, it's time to go, grab a
44:54
Speaker 6: shelter pet and get reality. Daily signal here at the
44:58
Speaker 6: Consumer Electronic Show. And what to my wondering eyes should
45:02
Speaker 6: appear when we get here than a big airstream in
45:06
Speaker 6: the middle of everything else, almost anachronistic as the America
45:11
Speaker 6: two fifty pitch pod is here at the Consumer Electronics Show.
45:17
Speaker 6: That's what this airstream is. It's a place for people
45:20
Speaker 6: to come and tell their American stories, their stories of
45:24
Speaker 6: the community. And Kristin Thompson is here with us from
45:27
Speaker 6: American two to fifty. Kristen, thank you guys for being
45:30
Speaker 6: part of the Consumer Electronics Show. And I do want
45:32
Speaker 6: to talk to you about technology and the importance of
45:36
Speaker 6: America's last two hundred and fifty years to that. But
45:39
Speaker 6: how do people interact with America two fifty online so
45:43
Speaker 6: that they can find out more about what's going to be.
45:46
Speaker 7: Going on this year?
45:47
Speaker 34: That's right, Well, we certainly have a lot planned for
45:50
Speaker 34: this next year. We just kicked off on New Year's
45:53
Speaker 34: Eve previewing the ball drop that'll be happening in New
45:56
Speaker 34: York City on July.
45:57
Speaker 15: Third, from Sea to Shining Sea. We literally less than
46:00
Speaker 15: twenty four.
46:00
Speaker 34: Hours, we're in passing to California with the Rose Parade.
46:04
Speaker 34: We had a Soaring Onward Together float and then this
46:07
Speaker 34: week we're here in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show,
46:10
Speaker 34: as you mentioned, with a pitch pod. But you can
46:13
Speaker 34: find more at America to fifty dot org and that
46:15
Speaker 34: has our master.
46:16
Speaker 15: Calendar of events.
46:18
Speaker 34: We also have state and territory commissions in all fifty
46:20
Speaker 34: six parts of the country that are doing their local programming,
46:24
Speaker 34: and we have a series of initiatives that we're launching.
46:27
Speaker 15: Just in the past two weeks.
46:28
Speaker 34: At the national level, America Gives, which is our signature
46:31
Speaker 34: volunteerism program.
46:33
Speaker 15: So we want Americans. This country was founded on.
46:35
Speaker 34: Service, and we want to make sure that all of
46:37
Speaker 34: you that are out there volunteering in your local communities
46:40
Speaker 34: allow us to capture your hours so that we can
46:42
Speaker 34: record the largest number of hours ever recorded by one
46:45
Speaker 34: country on December thirty first, this coming year.
46:48
Speaker 6: Well, two hundred and fifty years ago, we all did volunteer.
46:51
Speaker 6: We all grabbed a pitchfork and a musket or wherever
46:54
Speaker 6: we needed to to get rid of the invading army
46:57
Speaker 6: of the British. And so I wanted to talk about,
47:01
Speaker 6: since we're the consumer electronics show that moment two hundred
47:05
Speaker 6: and fifty years ago. I think the Scousen book, The
47:09
Speaker 6: Five thousand Year Lead, chronicles all the technological advancements that
47:14
Speaker 6: started when America put forth the idea of a free
47:18
Speaker 6: market of ideas and people collaborating, and that energy that starts,
47:24
Speaker 6: and then the rest of the world said, you know,
47:26
Speaker 6: let's do more of that. It was the Enlightenment born
47:30
Speaker 6: into a real country, not just a theory, and we
47:34
Speaker 6: watched technology from Europe and Asia and the United States
47:38
Speaker 6: explode after the country was founded, and all the way
47:44
Speaker 6: up through now you're looking to take that inertia and
47:47
Speaker 6: push it into the next two hundred and fifty.
47:49
Speaker 15: Years that's right. So we launched America Innovates.
47:51
Speaker 34: Our chair Rose Areos was just on the CTA Center
47:53
Speaker 34: stage here in the Grand Lobby at the Las Vegas
47:57
Speaker 34: Convention Center talking about the launch of America and it
48:00
Speaker 34: really is honoring what we've come from two hundred and
48:03
Speaker 34: fifty years ago. But then also kind of what this
48:05
Speaker 34: show highlights, which is where we're going, right and so
48:08
Speaker 34: we're going to be launching America Innovates. We're going to
48:10
Speaker 34: have an expo that kind of highlights that American ingenuity.
48:14
Speaker 15: We've heard from so many folks coming.
48:15
Speaker 34: By just sharing their own story right on I was
48:18
Speaker 34: doing this, but this is a country where we feel
48:21
Speaker 34: like we can really prosper and bring new ideas and
48:24
Speaker 34: bold things that we want to launch and do.
48:27
Speaker 15: So we're really really excited.
48:29
Speaker 6: Nothing breaks my heart more to hear a young person say, ah,
48:32
Speaker 6: the systems rigged against me, or whatever it may be,
48:35
Speaker 6: because it really is still the place where.
48:39
Speaker 2: If you feel it in your heart, you can go
48:41
Speaker 2: do it.
48:43
Speaker 6: And I know that Rosie in her address to the
48:46
Speaker 6: Consumer Electronics Show addressed some of that, and that's part
48:50
Speaker 6: of what you guys are going to try to do
48:52
Speaker 6: with America at two point fifty is to get back
48:54
Speaker 6: into especially some of the inner city, poorer communities, to
48:58
Speaker 6: help reignite that innovative ideas, the entrepreneurial ideas.
49:03
Speaker 15: Right Christmas, that's right, that's right.
49:05
Speaker 34: And so we want to engage three hundred and fifty
49:07
Speaker 34: million Americans right, meet them where they are.
49:09
Speaker 15: We say three fifty for two fifty.
49:11
Speaker 2: Be careful.
49:12
Speaker 6: I've had those house parties where it feels like that's
49:14
Speaker 6: how many people share up people, not all at once.
49:17
Speaker 34: But I think everyone has a story, right, and so
49:19
Speaker 34: we certainly this is our our airstream that's traveling the country,
49:23
Speaker 34: and our.
49:23
Speaker 15: American story is not that different.
49:25
Speaker 34: When you talk to folks and you actually hear about
49:27
Speaker 34: their background, their family's history, where they're going, what they've done,
49:31
Speaker 34: and it's just been incredible to hear those stories on
49:33
Speaker 34: the ground here at CS.
49:34
Speaker 6: So when you talk about the volunteerism aspect of this,
49:39
Speaker 6: I know that we've talked about this Martin Luther King
49:41
Speaker 6: Day coming up, and that's a day of service. You're
49:44
Speaker 6: looking at creating a whole service centered year. But you know,
49:49
Speaker 6: maybe even leading into more talk about that aspect of
49:52
Speaker 6: America two fifty.
49:53
Speaker 34: Yeah, sure, so America gives it's it's on our website.
49:56
Speaker 34: You can go to America fifty dot org and actually
49:58
Speaker 34: it'll pop right up the right now.
50:01
Speaker 15: You can pledge as an individual.
50:02
Speaker 34: We have a series of nonprofits that have come on board,
50:06
Speaker 34: and it's really easy. Everyone says, what's the catch, How
50:08
Speaker 34: hard is it? It really has click on a link
50:11
Speaker 34: and submit your hours. And then the fun part about it,
50:13
Speaker 34: because we wanted to add a little fun element, is
50:15
Speaker 34: we do have a sweepstakes. So we will pick two
50:18
Speaker 34: hundred and fifty winners and there will be a million
50:20
Speaker 34: dollar pot, so each one will get four thousand dollars
50:23
Speaker 34: to a charity that's been approved by America Chief fifty
50:25
Speaker 34: as a nonprofit.
50:26
Speaker 24: Partner of ours.
50:27
Speaker 34: So we're really excited to launch that. In addition to
50:30
Speaker 34: having people.
50:31
Speaker 6: Go on and long their hours for us, that's what's
50:33
Speaker 6: called being a force multiplayer right there. So you talked
50:36
Speaker 6: about there's going to be for the first time ever.
50:39
Speaker 6: Growing up in New York, the ball drop was very
50:41
Speaker 6: special to us. I remember when they changed it to
50:43
Speaker 6: an Apple and everyone lost their mind, and then when
50:47
Speaker 6: they went back.
50:48
Speaker 2: To the ball everyone lost their mind again.
50:50
Speaker 7: But you will.
50:51
Speaker 6: You have convinced New York City to have a second
50:54
Speaker 6: ball drop. And remember New York City wasn't really friendly
50:58
Speaker 6: territory two hundred and fifty years ago. But New York,
51:03
Speaker 6: you guys are going to have a ball drop on
51:05
Speaker 6: ChIL So.
51:06
Speaker 34: Think about it like New Year's Eve. It'll be the
51:08
Speaker 34: preview for July fourth, and then we will. New York
51:11
Speaker 34: City is actually one of our leading cities. We have
51:13
Speaker 34: four leading cities in our legislation, Boston, Charleston, South Carolina,
51:17
Speaker 34: New York City, in Philadelphia.
51:19
Speaker 6: Oh well, don't forget us in Charlotte's Well, we got
51:21
Speaker 6: this fellow named Jefferson. He used to live there, and
51:25
Speaker 6: thank you, Kristin Thompson, so his deputy executive director.

51:38
Speaker 2: a lot of there.
51:39

51:43
Speaker 34: activities are going on in your local Continue.
51:45
Speaker 6: Now you're doing this pitch pod where people are supposed
51:48
Speaker 6: to come and tell you their American story. Can people
51:51
Speaker 6: come in with an idea and say, hey, this neat
51:54
Speaker 6: thing is going on in my state.
51:56
Speaker 2: Can America two fifty partner with it?
51:59
Speaker 34: Yes, that's right, we have a whole partnership steam. We
52:01
Speaker 34: would love to connect and see what you all work to.
52:05
Speaker 2: It's a big air stream and it's a big country. Kristen, Thanks,
52:08
Speaker 2: thanks you so much.
52:09
Speaker 6: I really appreciate it here at the Consumer Electronics Show
52:13
Speaker 6: and four three four eight eight two four to two
52:17
Speaker 6: one seven. Because you only to turn two hundred and
52:20
Speaker 6: fifty once, you know. Hopefully we can turn two hundred
52:23
Speaker 6: and fifty another time and celebrate five hundred years of this.
52:27
Speaker 7: But it is perilous.
52:30
Speaker 6: It is perilous this Thursday morning. A quick programming note
52:34
Speaker 6: by the way, because you can't fly in or out
52:36
Speaker 6: of Las Vegas except early early in the morning or
52:41
Speaker 6: late late at night. We're red eyeing back to our
52:45
Speaker 6: flagship city tonight, believe it or not. So we're going
52:50
Speaker 6: to have a present.
52:51
Speaker 7: You know. It's true.
52:52
Speaker 31: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
52:56
Speaker 31: to think about what matters most when it comes to
52:57
Speaker 31: our spending, our healthcare. This is why if so many
53:00
Speaker 31: people are joining meta share right now, metas share is
53:04
Speaker 31: a trusted way to save up to fifty percent on
53:07
Speaker 31: your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred thousand people
53:10
Speaker 31: have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious why too,
53:13
Speaker 31: especially now during this challenging season with health care costs
53:17
Speaker 31: and out of pocket expenses going up. Meta share can
53:20
Speaker 31: save you a lot of money. The typical family saves
53:23
Speaker 31: five hundred.
53:24
Speaker 11: Dollars a month.
53:25
Speaker 4: Medashare works too.
53:26
Speaker 31: It's been around for thirty years.
53:27

53:35
Speaker 31: if you call, you can get a.
53:37
Speaker 7: Price within two minutes.
53:38
Speaker 31: Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
53:41
Speaker 31: and start saving.
53:42
Speaker 7: Here you go call eight five five share forty. That's
53:45
Speaker 7: eight five five shre forty. Eight five five share forty
