  Speaker 1: Not only is it Friday, it's a finished Strong Friday,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: and you made it here. What a week of news.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Good god. I mean, we're gonna digest all this stuff,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: get through it all, tell you what's true, what's not.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: And you have all weekend long to talk about this stuff.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: But there's a lot to talk about. But speaking of
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Finish Strong, let me just get the business out of
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the way first so we don't have to talk about
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: it again. I can't figure out the algorithm, so I
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: just do my thing and it seems to work. You
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: know what's working, when to do it, when to post
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the live stream whatever. All you know is this Facebook users,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I see you, Thank you for following this. More and
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: more of you every single day. Mostly people watch this
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: on x YouTube. I put clips on there, and the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: live stream and of course the audio podcast only, which
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: is wherever you like to get your podcasts. That's it
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: lives on as a replay, and that's it. And I
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: appreciate you always for being here because it keeps on growing.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: So let's get that out of the way and get
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: just what's happening in the news. And there's a lot
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to it, and there's a lot that's happening this week
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: because there's been so much news. Now, you don't fall
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: for this because you're smart. You don't fall for the
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: misinformation and the fake news stories about it, but your
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: friends might. That's why you got to know what's going on. Obviously,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the big story of the day, Big Tish James, Letitia James,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: the Attorney General of the State of New York, who
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: told us all she started the phrase no one's above
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the law. Well, she's been indicted herself. But here's what's happening.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: They're going to try to tell you. They're starting already.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: They're going to try to tell you that this is
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: some kind of political revenge and Trump's just try to
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: take out his enemies, when in fact, and I don't
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: care how you voted, I always say this, it is factual.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: These were real crimes that she was indicted for. This
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: is the real deal, despite what they tell you. We've
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: got that to talk about, as well as the Nobel
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Peace Prize. A lot of you upset about that Trump
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: did not win. It will tell you who did win
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the prize, but there's a reason for that. This is
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a story where you shouldn't get upset because he literally
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: just announced the peace deal yesterday. They had already decided
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: who the Nobel Peace was winner was whatever. But there's
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: an interesting angle on this for next year. It's kind
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: of like how the Oscars win or the Oscar winners go.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: It's for the previous years movies. That's kind of how
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: this works as well. But he's already got a strong,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: strong voice on the other side of the political aisle
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: advocating for him to win the Nobel Peace Prize for
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: next year, which is really interesting. So we'll get into
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: that as well, as well as how about this an
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: alternative super Bowl halftime show? When this first popped up,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I thought it was really stupid. I really did, to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: be honest with you. But of all people, my wife,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Missus Adams, found the story about this and she thought
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: it was hilarious. Usually she would think this is stupid too,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: but she's sent to it as well. And the idea
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: is coming from Turning Point USA. That's right, Charlie Kirk's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: organization to come up with. What's great about this is
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you can vote on what kind not the artist, but
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: what kind of super Bowl halftime show you would like
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: to see. Knowing how big that organization is, I tend
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to think that if this happens, it may actually draw
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: some eyeballs and some ratings away from the actual Super
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Bowl F Time show with Bad Bunny. I don't know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: we'll see, but maybe the best news of all for
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Friday as we head into a weekend. Guess what's coming up?
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Columbus Day and we can call it that again. Now
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: you're probably like me, You've always called a Columbus Day,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: but now it is officially Columbus Day again. It's back
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: because of an executive orders just yesterday. Like I say,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: has a lot to get to. Let's get to the
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: real news. Letitia James, the Attorney General of the State
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: of New York, the top cop in all the land?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Is they like to say about attorneys general, well, officially indicted.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I thought of all the news sources and I kind
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: of looked at this clip. I thought, the guy Kevin
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: is a cork. I can't remember this guy's name, this reporter,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: but anyway, he was on Fox last night when the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: news broke, and I thought he broke down the official
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: charges pretty much better than anybody. This was the official announcement,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: thought Choos Alert.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Letitia James has been indicted by a federal grand jury
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: senior corresp and Kevin Cork has the details. Kevin Evening Jesse,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: you know, just reading the headline will be for many
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: sweet vindication, proving that you know, sometimes legal turnabout is
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: in fact fair play. A federal grand jury in Virginia
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: indicting the New York Attorney General Letitia James on two
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: counts related to alleged mortgage bank fraud. James, or Big Tits,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: as she's been monitored by some of her critics, was
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: being probe for alleged paperwork discrepancies on her Brooklyn townhouse
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: and her Virginia home. She allegedly declared both of the
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: primary residences on mortgage applications, which you just can't do.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: That's it in a nutshell. That guy did a great
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: job breaking it down of anybody. Kevin Cork from Fox News,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: a good reporter, and he love his hair, fantastic hair. Anyway,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: those are the official charges, real crimes. Everybody, any legal
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: expert worth their salt and went through a lot of
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: them last night. You did too, says these are airtight charges.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: This is this is mortgage fraud. This is exactly what
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: it is. Now. The fascinating thing as you well know
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: by now, is that that's what she was trying to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: get Trump on. Well, they were trying to get Trump
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: on anything. She ran on it. She proclaimed it. She
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: was Her campaign for a tyranny general in New York
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: was funded by get Trump, and they were trying to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: get him on anything. And you might remember, you might
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: look back and remember what they actually charged him with
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: with mortgage fraud over Trump Tower, claiming that it was
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: worth way less. They tried at one point with a
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: quote independent investigator and analysis that Trump Tower was worth
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: something like a couple of hundred thousand. It's worth millions
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: and millions, and they tried to say it was way
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: smaller than it actually was in order to get better
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: bank loans. That's what that was completely proven to be,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: completely untrue, completely false, and so those charges went away.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: These this is a different story. So keep in mind,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: while she was doing this, while she launched this in
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: twenty eighteen to try to get Trump, as you'll hear
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: here in a second, she was guilty of doing this
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: with her own life in her own residence worth much
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: less money obviously, but doing the exact same thing. But
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: they're gonna try to tell you that this is political revenge,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: that campaign is already underway. But let's go back a
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: little bit. Let's have a little refresher and I needed
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: to do it too. Let's go back to when she
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: had said and coin that phrase that everybody likes to say. Now,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: nobody's above the law. Nobody's above the law. Said it
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a million and a half times. No one's above the law.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: And also there's a clip in here that was so
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: damning now when you look back on it, where she's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: she's on the steps of the capitol in Albany, and
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: somebody says, please tell us you're gonna get Trump. Oh,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get him. She admits it. Let's go back
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to what she was actually trying to do, presenting our
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: respective states stand up and enforce the rule of law.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: The president of these United States is not above the law.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: No matter how rich, powerful, or politically connected you are,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: everyone must play by the same rules.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Please sue him for us.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, we're gonna definitely assume we're gonna be a real patdly.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Oh we're gonna assume we're gonna be a real pain
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: in the ass. That's what they had said, over and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: over and over again and they were to him. That's true.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, none of them stuck because they were all fraudulent,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: ridiculous charges. That was political revenge, that's what it was.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: But do not be fooled, my friends. I know you
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: won't because you're smart. You see through all of this
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: garbage and you see what's real and what's not. But
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: here's the danger. You've got some family members and maybe
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: even some friends, maybe some co workers, I don't know,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: maybe somebody that's gonna fall for this line of crap
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: that they're starting. Already, the absolutely corrupt, fraudulent news media
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: is already out in full force telling you that nothing
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: will stop Trump. Now he's just going after his political enemies. No,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: this is a very important prominent person, the Attorney General
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: of the State of New York, who is guilty of
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: doing this. This is a real crime as opposed to
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: what they were going after him, and I don't care.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: That's fact, that's what this. But that didn't stop them.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Here's the reaction last night. Oh, they had all their
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: they had all their Lackey's on MSNBC last night trying
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: to say nothing will stop them. Now, this is just
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: political revenge. This is what you need to watch out for.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: I'm seeing twelve hundred days in which this administration will
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: not let up. And it's not just because of what
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: Donald Trump wants, but the part of traveling around the
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: country the last especially two years since really the FBI
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: investigation in twenty twenty two ramped up and ultimately Donald
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: Trump announced that he was going to run for another term,
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: and days later, Jack Smith was appointed by Merrick Garland
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: to head on the Special Council case. And at that
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: same time, it's when Letitia James civil fraud trial really
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: took off and the announcement of her lawsuit. At that
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: point in time, the future of this country, I think
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: really pivoted.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: The future of the country pivoted. Listen to what they're
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: trying to sell you. It's twelve hundred days of Trump
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: and his rampage and his please and you're going to
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: hear it, and people who aren't as as stute as
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: you are are going to try to spout it back
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: to you. Well, they're saying that this is just you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Trump's political revenge. It's all you have to simply do
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to respond to that is say, no, what they're charging
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: these people with is actually real crime. That that's real,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: real crime, and none of those stuck with Trump. Ridiculous.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Here's another point. You know, you can always bring up
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: to people who try to sell you that and you
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: just if you want to engage with them, say this
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: guy made it to his mid seventies, the mid seventies,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you know, an older guy who had never been charged
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: with any crime in his entire life until they came
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: after him because he had been president. They wanted to
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: stop him. That's all you have to do to respond
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: to that. But I don't know, you talk to the
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: legal experts, and for this kind of stuff. I always
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: like to go to people like Alan Dershowitz. You know,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: he's a really good one to go to. It's because
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: they usually try to be non biased about this, and
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: every single one of them always say, you know that
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: a charge like this le Tisia James and the Komi
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: thing looks like they're gonna stick. I mean this in
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: so many wors words they left around and now they're
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: finding out, so so be it all right? He also
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: woke up to this news a lot of people upset,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: the news being a lot of people upset about the
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Nobel Peace Prize. I can't believe. I can't believe they
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: didn't give it to Trump. This is absolutely ridiculous. Hold
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: on now, this is a case of something not to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: be upset about. There is a Nobel Peace Prize winner
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: just announced last night. It is Are you ready the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Nobel Prize awarded this year two Venezuelan opposition leader, Maria
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Corina Machado. That's a great name, Maria Corina Machado. Now
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: here's why. The committee's deadline for nominations was January thirty. First, guys,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the peace deal in the Middle East was just announced yesterday,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: and the day before yesterday leading up to it that
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: it was coming. He wasn't going to win the peace
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: They don't like scrap all their nominations to write them
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: all down. They said, oh wait, can't tell Maria she's
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: not winning. We got to put Trump in there. That
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen. If you want an example of how this
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: actually works, you got to look at it like the Austin,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: the Golden Globes or Emmys. It's for the work that
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: happened last year. Before the deadline. They already had this
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: lady probably you know, as the winner two months ago
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: or something. So here's something not to be upset about.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And you gonna see a lot of people online. There's
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: people all over x this morning just in a rage
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: that Trump didn't win this. It wasn't gonna happen. It
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: literally just happened right before the deadline. So you know,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: that's something not to be upset about. But I will
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: say this, and this is fascinating. So a year from
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: right now, there is a very good chance we actually
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: will be talking about President Trump winning the Nobel Peace
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Prize for his work in the Middle East. And again,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: like I said yesterday, let's hope that all of this
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: holds true. We get all of the hostages back remaining,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and everything works out in that and peace holds in
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: the Middle East. We all want that, right, he may
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: actually do it because you need a lot of people
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: in your corner, and you need need people that normally
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: would not be in your corner. Let's go to this
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: fascinating gentleman. And boy, he is drawing they for saying
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: this from his Democratic colleagues. John Fetterman, you know, the
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: big bald guy, and we actually had a stroke a
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago. He's recovered from that, which is
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: amazing in itself. He has the cajones to stand up
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: and say that Trump actually should do this, and he
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: goes so far as to say, and if he creates
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: more peace deals in the year to come, and if
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: this deal in Gaza holds, he'll be the guy standing
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: up for him to win this. This is fascinating and
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: it's pissing off his colleague.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: Do you think the President deserves a Nobel Peace Prize?
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, if this sticks, I think the whole
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: point of having a Nobel piece prizes for ending wars
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: and per browning peace. And now I'm going to make
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: a direct appeal to the president. You know, I hope
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: he chooses to provide the Tomahawks to the Ukrainians too,
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: and give them the tools that they need to push
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: back against the Russia. And if he brings the Ukrainian
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: war to its end, I'll be the Democrat leading the
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: committee for his a Nobel Prize piece.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm not exactly in favor of more American weaponry
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: going to that area, but he's his general sentiment is right.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: If we can get some peace between Russia and Ukraine,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: that would be the most Then how do you let
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: me ask you this, how do you not give Trump
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the Peace Prize? Then let's flash forward exactly one year
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: from right now, and let's hope we're all doing well,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: we all have more peace, we're all alive and well
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: and feeling great, and we've got peace in the Middle
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: East and between Russia and Ukraine. Can you then then
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: it would be an actual legitimate meltdown if they don't
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: give him the Nobel Peace Price. Can you imagine? How
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: could they actually justify that? But it may happen. I
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: gotta know, it may happen. Completely understandable that it would
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: not happen this year. I mean, the deadline was just
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: like you know, in January. But if things continue to
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: go and Trump will tell you that he's like forged
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: peace in like thirteen fourteen different regions of the world
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: in smaller reads as we never even hear about the news,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you know, of course he's going to tell you that.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: But if you have a counterpart in the Democrat Party
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: like John Fetterman, who's advocating for him, that's what you
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: kind of need to get this done. I don't know,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: it may happen. Who the heck knows, But that's why
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: it didn't happen this time around. All right, let's get
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: into some more fun news. This was this was something
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I thought was really stupid at first, I really did.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I thought it was just completely corny the idea. But
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: how they're going about this to change the halftime super
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: roles showed not to change it. They can't do anything
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: about that. The NFL is locked in. They've got all
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: their you know, promos, all set and done. They've got
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: all the marketing done. Bad Bunny is out there saying
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: he's going to be doing it anyway. And he's still,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: by the way, he's tripling down on pissing off people saying,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: I don't care about Middle America, but I'll play the
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl. You know the whole story. We've talked about
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: it ad nauseum blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Well,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: turning point USA. That's right. Charlie Kirk's organization they started,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: which is massive and massively influential, by the way, millions
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: and millions of members, more and more chapters on college campuses.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: They'd come up with the idea to have you, me,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: everybody vote for not a specific artist yet, but what
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: style of music for or entertainment for a Super Bowl
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: alternate halftime show you would like to see happen again.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: At first, I thought this was a stupid idea. I
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: really did. To be completely honest with you, I'm like, Oh,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: that's goofy as hell. That's just not gonna work until
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: they set up a separate website. And Lauren, my wife,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: found this first. We're in the car yesterday, and she
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: pointed out and she thought it was hilarious, which she
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: normally wouldn't chime in on something like this, And I said, Okay,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: if this has her attention, how many other just middle
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: of the road people for the Super Bowl halftime show,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: not even football fans, not even real super Bowl fans.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Would this get the attention to just for the fact
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: that they're standing up to something that was force fed
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: to most of the country. Most people do not want
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: bad money as the Super Bowl halftime show, And honestly,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: the network, the TV network that's carrying it in the NFL,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: basically is telling you, we don't care what you think.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: This is what you're gonna like. That's how they operate.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: They're that big. We're talking about the NFL. They own
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: an entire day of the week on Sunday and now Thursdays,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: but that and Mondays, and that's what it is. They're
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: that powerful. So this pops up yesterday as an alternative
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: to the halftime show coming up Turning Point again. Charlie
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Kirk's organization, if you're just joining us, have put up
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: the website asking you what kind of music you would
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: like to see. So you go to the website, which,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: by the way, if you're interested in this, is called
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: are you ready American Halftime Show dot com. You go
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: to American Halftime Show dot com and of course you're
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: going to see the Turning Point information on there, and
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: information about how to get a chapter, or to donate
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: or to join. But more importantly, you go to this
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: and the banner says exactly that American Halftime Show celebrating Faith,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Family and Freedom two eight twenty six, which is the
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: date of the Super Bowl. And you have a form
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: and you got to send in your information obviously because
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: they want a mailing list. It's its first name, last name, email,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: phone numbers, zip code to make sure you legit and
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: you want to get in there. And I thought this
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: is fascinating. This wasn't just people online from turning points
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: saying we should have we should have kid Rock play
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: the super Bowl, we should have Creed play the super Bowl,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Lee Greenwood, Ted Nuge, we know whatever. What I love
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: that they did this. They want to get a real
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: sense and trust me, this will get if not tens
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: of thousands, hundreds of thousands of responses, it just will.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: They want to find out what style of music they want.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: So here's the question, what music genres would you like
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: to see featured? Select all that apply, and here are
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: your choices. And the first one is great, you just
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: love this. The first option for you is anything in English.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: That's just great the way they work it. Also, Americana
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: is this kind of roots rock kind of thing. Classic
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: rock is the second choice, country, hip hop, pop, and worship,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: you know, like Christian music. It'll be interesting to see
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: what happens there. And then they give you the disclaimer
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: by clicking yes, you agree to see recurring automated emails,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: promotional items, whatever, and then you submit. So it's a
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: pretty simple form. You just have to put your information
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: in there. I'm fascinated to see how big this is
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: going to be and I'm going to keep an eye
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: on this. If for nothing else. They probably will put
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: something together and then we'll watch it when February rolls
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: around to see how many eyeballs it actually does take
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: away from the halftime show, and still the NFL and
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: the network will say it didn't have an impact at all.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: But then you'll look at the action and turning point
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: will actually come out with the information that they got
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: from their website and this will be streamed on their
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: website or something else, whatever they come up with, and
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: then you'll get the real information and how impactful this was.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: And hopefully this is the real reason why I love this.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Hopefully down the road, the NFL wakes up and understands
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: that the acts that they can keep on putting in
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, that's not what America wants. And hopefully
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: somebody in that organization wakes up and realizes that you're
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: not representing most of your audience for the football audience,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: or just it's bigger than football, just a mainstream American
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: entertainment event. Because people have had enough and finally there's
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: an alternative, I'm rooting for it now. I've gone completely
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: full circle on this. I thought it was a goof
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: really goofy idea I thought, oh, they want to do Okay,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: this is gonna be kind of stupid. Nobody's gonna care.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know the way they're going about it. Very smart,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: very smart. We'll see, we'll see what happens. I'm gonna
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: fill it out just to get a reaction on there,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: because I love pushback. You know, if people are enough,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: if there are enough people upset about exactly what they're
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: trying to tell us, you know, if there's enough pushback
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: just to send a message to a giant corporate organization
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: like this that we're not too happy with it. I
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: love that you vote with your dollars and you vote
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: with your attention and ratings. That's what you do. I
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: absolutely love that. All right, let's rap, but finished strong
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Friday with some great news. Coming up on Monday is
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: a very important day in American history. It's Columbus Day.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Now in most states. You've been told and your kids
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: are told, and my kids have been taught this because
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: they're in that era when it all changed. What's not Columbus. No,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: we're going to change that. No, no, no, no. The
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: academics did this and they said, no, it should be
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: representative to all people. It should be Indigenous People's Day. Now,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: that's all well and good. And this is so misunderstood
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: because most people are completely understanding of the history of it.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it wasn't too fair what happened to the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Indians in this country, but you know what, that was
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: the world at the time. But no, they changed it
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: to Indigenous People's Day to make everybody feel good and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: well by doing that, this is what always happens, by
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: making everybody feel good and inclusive. And you disparaged the
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: history of Italian Americans in this country. Now. I don't
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: know where you grew up, but I grew up just
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: outside of Boston, as you know, where the Italian American
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: community is massive, important, massively strong, and quite frankly just
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: awesome for their contributions to this country. And to take
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Columbus Day the name away from them, now, they never
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: listened to it. They did it anyway. They said, screw you,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: We're still gonna have Columbus Day. To take that away
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: from you was so insulting and they wouldn't stand for it. Well,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: now an executive order has been signed. I think Trump
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: loved doing that. I think he was looking most forward
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: to this. He loved the peace Deal, and he loved
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: getting Columbus Day. An executive order was signed of the
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: White House just yesterday to bring it back. He signed it,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: he held it up. They did a couple of choice
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: words for the people who wanted to take Columbus Day away.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: In other words, were calling it Columbus Day.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: That was the press that broke out in a plus
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: I've never seen that happened before. The press actually broke
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: out in applause. Good Columbus Day, Columbus Day. We're back Italians.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: We're back Italians. That'll be printed on a shirt in
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: the North End of Boston and in Little Italy and
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: New York by three pm today. We're back Italians. They
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: love it. You got to understand how important columbusy Day
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: is to that community, and it's stayed. I mean Columbus
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Day festivities. I was never growing up my entire life
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: that we never had school. It was that important. It
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: really was maybe different for you wherever you're from the country.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: It was that important in New England, New York City, Chicago,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I know, the Columbus Ohio is a massive Columbus Day.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Other cities throughout the country. I know, I'm forgetting some
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: it's massively important. And the takeaway lesson is always this,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: despite you trying to represent everybody and right or wrong
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: in history, by doing that, you're taking something away from
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: a community, Taking something away from a community that cherishes
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: it doesn't make it right for everybody else. So another
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: good move. I can't wait for Monday. It is Columbus
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Day and it'll officially you can call it Columbus Day,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: so we'll be here for it. But before that happens,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: you got a weekend on your hands. Remember, the big
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: takeaway from today is you're not gonna get fooled, but
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: people around you might get fooled by this disgusting lying
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: news media that's going to try to tell you that
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: indicting big Tish James, the Attorney General of New York
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: is political revenge. No no, no, don't fall for that. You
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: know you won't make sure your friends don't, frame family
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: don't either. This is a real crime as opposed to
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: what they try to do to Trump. What they try
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: to do to Trump was actually political law fare, not this.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: And the most important thing today is have a great, great, wicked,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: awesome weekend coming up. Columbus Day on Monday, we'll be
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: here for it. But in the meantime, we get radio
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: lives on as a replay here on x and on YouTube,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: and you Facebook viewers, more and more Facebook people watching.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Make sure you follow as well. I appreciate that, and
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: my audio only listeners on the podcast. Sometimes you catch
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: up on that on the weekend too, because the weekend
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: numbers kind of skyrocket, So I guess that's an audio
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: kind of thing. I don't know. Like I said, I
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: can't figure out the algorithm. I just do my thing.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: But on all your favorite podcasts about platforms as well,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: it's right there. Most importantly, I'm out of material. You
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: have a weekend to get into. Make it wicked awesome,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: and I'll talk to you on Columbus Day.
