Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Here's your host, Alex Garrett.
- 0:06Speaker 2: All right, before we jump on the air here on
- 0:08Speaker 2: nine seventy, I have to say this storyline stuck out
- 0:12Speaker 2: to me this weekend, and we're gonna get you coverage
- 0:15Speaker 2: from the Justin Time Baseball Luke Weaver and I got
- 0:19Speaker 2: some coaches on and I of course have Frank Luna
- 0:22Speaker 2: on my pod as well. We'll get to all that audio,
- 0:25Speaker 2: but I have to say, I have to say the
- 0:27Speaker 2: most stunning thing of the weekend yet not surprising, is
- 0:32Speaker 2: Pope Leo the fourteenth after his inauguration Mass. According to The
- 0:37Speaker 2: Daily Beast and others, snubbed JD.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Vance.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Whoever in the White House thought sending JD. Vans back
- 0:43Speaker 2: to the Vatican after he supposedly is blamed for the
- 0:47Speaker 2: death of Pope Francis. It doesn't look good optics wise
- 0:51Speaker 2: if you're the White House to send Vance back out there,
- 0:56Speaker 2: and the whole idea was to make a good relationship
- 0:59Speaker 2: with a Vatican and the punt if well, the story goes,
- 1:05Speaker 2: Pope Leo the fourteen spurned JD. Vance on Sunday, offering
- 1:09Speaker 2: him a quick greeting after his inaugural Mass while holding
- 1:12Speaker 2: extensive private meetings with other world leaders. The first American
- 1:17Speaker 2: Pope shook Vance's hand uh oh during a brief seventeen
- 1:20Speaker 2: second seventeen seconds with the VP.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Of America JD. Vance during the procession line.
- 1:28Speaker 2: After the mass, Leo did meet with Ukrainian prison Voladimir
- 1:33Speaker 2: Zelenski and Peruvian president. Of course he is in Peru,
- 1:38Speaker 2: or his cardinalship was in Peru, Dina Orcilia.
- 1:44Speaker 1: And others.
- 1:45Speaker 2: But how about that, a seventeen second handshake with JD.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Vance. That's a stunner to me.
- 1:53Speaker 2: But do you think this pope knows the memes? I
- 1:55Speaker 2: feel like he does if he's only giving seventeen seconds
- 1:59Speaker 2: to the man who actually he told Pope Francis to
- 2:03Speaker 2: the effect of, I'm glad you're getting better. Only three
- 2:06Speaker 2: hours later Pope Francis died. You know you can't make
- 2:09Speaker 2: this up. And again, why send him to the Vatican.
- 2:15Speaker 2: And Snel has poke fun about JD.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Vans. I didn't know he's dealing with the divorce possible
- 2:22Speaker 1: divorce rumors with Usha. That's very interesting.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And of course after he left India, India goes to
- 2:29Speaker 2: an attack Pakistan.
- 2:30Speaker 1: I mean, it's been quite a whirlwind.
- 2:32Speaker 2: For jd Vance, So pelpe Leo snub not a surprise.
- 2:38Speaker 2: And you know what, maybe he's better off. Maybe spending
- 2:41Speaker 2: less than thirty seconds with the vice president of America
- 2:46Speaker 2: will make him better off. Or maybe it's a political
- 2:48Speaker 2: statement as well that he's not gonna deal with the
- 2:53Speaker 2: issues in the rhetoric sometimes coming out of that White House.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Very interesting dynamic that we're seeing unfold. I wonder what
- 3:02Speaker 2: Trump's gonna have to say about Pope Leo the fourteenth,
- 3:06Speaker 2: an American president, an American pope snubbing the American vice president.
- 3:13Speaker 2: It's quite a story.
- 3:18Speaker 1: And that's about it. Again.
- 3:20Speaker 2: We're gonna have some audio from justin Time, baseball and
- 3:23Speaker 2: other things, and it's always fun to be on the radio.
- 3:26Speaker 2: I was gonna reference another clip, but I'll do that
- 3:29Speaker 2: later in the week because you might have heard me
- 3:32Speaker 2: on Bishop Gators' show, Glibbal Spirit's Revolution Radio.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Talking about it.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Just the News story, which is true that this Garcia
- 3:40Speaker 2: character was actually on the Biden watch list as well.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Many people may not know that, but he is. And
- 3:47Speaker 1: I'll drop that.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Link in the Just the News from Just the News
- 3:51Speaker 2: in the description below. But after the inaugural mass of
- 3:55Speaker 2: Pope Leo the fourteenth and the processional in what do
- 4:01Speaker 2: they call Saint Peters Square and all that, only seventeen
- 4:06Speaker 2: seconds for the Vice President of the United States to
- 4:10Speaker 2: interact with Pope Leo the fourteenth, Quite a start to
- 4:15Speaker 2: the dynamic between America and the Vatican.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Why didn't you say?
- 4:19Speaker 2: And not only that, not only that, I'm hoping to
- 4:26Speaker 2: be at Cardinal Dolan's first Mass back at Saint Patrick's
- 4:30Speaker 2: Cathedral after the last few weeks have wrapped up.
- 4:33Speaker 1: I of course had the fortune of being at the front.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Row basically of the memorial Mass for Pope Francis, and
- 4:41Speaker 2: to be doing to be seeing him back after electing
- 4:45Speaker 2: the first American Pope would be very interesting. So we'll
- 4:48Speaker 2: see if we can get into the same pats for that,
- 4:50Speaker 2: as I'm sure a lot of eyes are gonna be
- 4:52Speaker 2: on this Cardinal Dolan and what he has to say
- 4:55Speaker 2: coming back to the city, coming back to the States,
- 4:58Speaker 2: after electing the first American president, a lot of American pope,
- 5:02Speaker 2: a lot to look forward to in the weeks to come.
- 5:07Speaker 2: But what do you guys think the snub of the
- 5:09Speaker 2: JD vance.
- 5:11Speaker 1: I think it might be the right move.
- 5:12Speaker 2: I don't think Vance has been good luck the last
- 5:16Speaker 2: few months alone, so I think Poplio knows what he's doing.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Maybe we'll talk about it, maybe not.
- 5:24Speaker 2: We'll talk about a lot of things on Shake It
- 5:26Speaker 2: Off tonight at seven pm join us AM nine seven
