Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: I'm busy doing concrete, valuable things on a need to
- 0:08Speaker 1: know basis, because you need to know the first thing.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Today Jeorde said to steal me step. You have a
- 0:16Speaker 2: day at least for work. When the sun comes up
- 0:20Speaker 2: drops at the school. Joe has everything a jinder, all the.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Treasures out and needs.
- 0:28Speaker 4: No one that Joe's smile.
- 0:31Speaker 5: He only as pas.
- 0:34Speaker 6: Let them be thank you for letting us be of
- 0:37Speaker 6: service to you this morning. I want to be Joe
- 0:42Speaker 6: to gather in our name at four three four eight
- 0:45Speaker 6: eight two four two one seven, remembering that we gather
- 0:48Speaker 6: in his name. Uh there. And I was just watching
- 0:51Speaker 6: more of the coverage of the rally yesterday in Washington,
- 0:56Speaker 6: and how you it varies and the swings are amazing.
- 1:00Speaker 6: Everyone in the United States was there to a couple
- 1:04Speaker 6: of dozen people were there? I mean as nutty as
- 1:08Speaker 6: the old ilhan Omar. Some people did something on that date.
- 1:16Speaker 6: I mean there's huge crowds of people rededicating and of
- 1:19Speaker 6: course thereaming Karens of Christian nationalism. And these are the
- 1:30Speaker 6: folks that will tell your school division that every kid
- 1:34Speaker 6: needs to read the Quran but can't read a Bible,
- 1:40Speaker 6: and they'll make defense of this, saying we're trying to
- 1:43Speaker 6: be inclusive except for everyone else. And this is what happens.
- 1:50Speaker 6: This is a guarantee when government starts trying to manage things,
- 1:54Speaker 6: it makes a bollocks of it. And we're watching, after
- 1:59Speaker 6: decades of left wing leadership, including Republicans, we find ourselves
- 2:05Speaker 6: in the situation where, for a great example, the women
- 2:10Speaker 6: of the World title nine and all of the things
- 2:14Speaker 6: that were done to equalize the playing field for women
- 2:21Speaker 6: or out the window. Now in the trans movement, new
- 2:24Speaker 6: shiny object has grabbed the fixation of the American Marxist
- 2:31Speaker 6: so now it's trans. It's boys playing girls' sports. I
- 2:35Speaker 6: thought we protected the sanctity of women's athletics, that kind
- 2:39Speaker 6: of thing. That's just one example of what happens after
- 2:42Speaker 6: enough time you circle back and you start eating your
- 2:45Speaker 6: own is the point of the Martin nimol or poem.
- 2:50Speaker 6: Eventually they come for you, and it's all fun in
- 2:54Speaker 6: games until you're the next one on their list. And
- 3:00Speaker 6: I wish that was a message that more people understood,
- 3:03Speaker 6: because they're all going to do it, because everyone seems
- 3:07Speaker 6: to think that a redress of their grievances is what
- 3:11Speaker 6: the next thing they want, but our first things. On
- 3:16Speaker 6: this Monday morning, as the gathering of the National mall
- 3:20Speaker 6: heard from many Franklin Graham, but the President's message of
- 3:24Speaker 6: my people who are called by my name, humble themselves
- 3:28Speaker 6: and pray and seek my face, and turn from their
- 3:30Speaker 6: wicked ways, that I will hear from heaven and will
- 3:34Speaker 6: forgive their sin and heal their land. So the rededication
- 3:40Speaker 6: to the country in two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of
- 3:44Speaker 6: One Nation under God, and a reminder of the important
- 3:53Speaker 6: phrase in our declaration endowed by their creator. Meanwhile, battles
- 4:02Speaker 6: in the Middle East as drones of questionable origin attempted
- 4:09Speaker 6: to attack the United aur Emirates' nuclear power plant on Sunday.
- 4:14Speaker 6: Authorities called it an unprovoked terrorist attack. Meanwhile, President Trump
- 4:21Speaker 6: posted to social media for Iran, the clock is ticking
- 4:24Speaker 6: and they better get moving fast. That drove up the
- 4:29Speaker 6: price of Brent crude. The international standard barrel of oil
- 4:33Speaker 6: went up to a one hundred and ten dollars per barrel. Meanwhile, China,
- 4:39Speaker 6: more is being learned about the deals that were cut
- 4:42Speaker 6: when President Trump was in Beijing. They've agreed to address
- 4:47Speaker 6: our concerns over shortages of rare earth minerals that they've
- 4:50Speaker 6: been hoarding. They've also agreed to a seventeen billion dollar
- 4:55Speaker 6: agricultural products trade deal. One of the Ukrainian Army's largest
- 5:03Speaker 6: drone strikes on Russia killed four people, including three near Moscow,
- 5:08Speaker 6: and wounded a dozen others, local authorities said Sunday. President
- 5:13Speaker 6: Zelenski of Ukraine confirmed the drone strikes, saying they were
- 5:16Speaker 6: entirely justified. The nation's largest city's the largest suburb, is
- 5:27Speaker 6: facing a transit strike this morning, as negotiators in Long
- 5:32Speaker 6: Island's railroad and then five unions will leave three hundred
- 5:38Speaker 6: thousand passengers without a train ride to work, and all
- 5:44Speaker 6: four crew members are safe after a frightening air show
- 5:47Speaker 6: accident at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho.
- 5:52Speaker 5: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
- 5:55Speaker 5: the American story, but not every site is telling that
- 5:58Speaker 5: story honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created
- 6:03Speaker 5: the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips
- 6:07Speaker 5: American citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the
- 6:11Speaker 5: sites that depict some of the greatest moments at our
- 6:13Speaker 5: nation's history, analyzing them for historical accuracy. And provides resources
- 6:19Speaker 5: for families or educators planning a visit. It currently covers
- 6:23Speaker 5: over forty five sites in the thirteen original colonies, but
- 6:26Speaker 5: sites from all fifty states will be added in time
- 6:29Speaker 5: for citizens to celebrate America.
- 6:32Speaker 7: To fifty this summer.
- 6:33Speaker 5: From Mount Vernon to Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more.
- 6:37Speaker 5: Americans deserve transparency and sites that steward our history faithfully
- 6:42Speaker 5: deserve our gratitude. The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites
- 6:46Speaker 5: every American to rediscover the places and stories that define
- 6:50Speaker 5: our nation, whether it's across the country or in your backyard.

- 7:03Speaker 8: between something high quality or something that saves you money.
- 7:07Speaker 6: But what if you could get both?
- 7:08Speaker 8: Why not, especially when it comes to healthcare, and that
- 7:11Speaker 8: is metashare.
- 7:12Speaker 6: You get both.
- 7:14Speaker 8: Many families save five hundred bucks a month with meta
- 7:17Speaker 8: share and that's huge. But it's also true that people
- 7:19Speaker 8: wind up way more satisfied too, and we know this
- 7:22Speaker 8: from research of members. There's a lot they like about Medshare,
- 7:26Speaker 8: but especially they love being part of something they believe in,
- 7:29Speaker 8: and Metashare works too. It has for more than thirty years.
- 7:33Speaker 8: There are hundreds of thousands of members who love having
- 7:37Speaker 8: telehealth if they need it. They love the huge Ppo network.

- 10:08Speaker 12: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 12: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 12: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 10:21Speaker 12: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 10:24Speaker 12: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 10:27Speaker 12: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 10:32Speaker 12: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop

- 13:09Speaker 20: The sound thousand.
- 13:12Speaker 13: Hundred to do list.
- 13:13Speaker 6: Putting the radio on is the first thing today.
- 13:20Speaker 7: Bringing a basive.
- 13:32Speaker 6: You know, back then you can say C. C. Deville.
- 13:36Speaker 6: You know they they will brett they will because now
- 13:41Speaker 6: that is you know, one of those things that zefad
- 13:44Speaker 6: mad Money, the mayor of New York, who's going to
- 13:46Speaker 6: sit there and say where'd everybody go? How come they
- 13:49Speaker 6: can't get in on the railroad trying to order the
- 13:53Speaker 6: railway strike and it in New York is three hundred
- 13:59Speaker 6: thousand people left without their ride to work. And we
- 14:02Speaker 6: were talking about this over the weekend that this is
- 14:07Speaker 6: again proof that sure, a privately owned railway service might
- 14:14Speaker 6: have labor strife as well, but when it's the government,
- 14:19Speaker 6: and this is an interesting sidebar to it. The strike
- 14:24Speaker 6: is impacting the Long Island Railroad. Specifically, it's a commuter
- 14:29Speaker 6: railway around New York City, funneling three hundred thousand persons
- 14:36Speaker 6: per day into New York generating an income of three
- 14:46Speaker 6: point nine billion dollars annually and spending two thirds of
- 14:54Speaker 6: that on its electrical bill. The trains are electric because
- 14:59Speaker 6: the question is how how do you fail because patronage,
- 15:03Speaker 6: because it's the cookie jar. The unions want more money.
- 15:10Speaker 6: Why because government's not going to crook close the railways
- 15:17Speaker 6: or are they? And the problem? You know, I have
- 15:23Speaker 6: friends still grew up there myself who rely on the railway.
- 15:29Speaker 6: And it's a pox on both houses. The union is
- 15:33Speaker 6: getting as much blame in New York as the government
- 15:36Speaker 6: officials are for not being able to deal with this.
- 15:40Speaker 6: Because trains are late, trains are dirty, trains are overcrowded.
- 15:45Speaker 21: You know, the.
- 15:47Speaker 6: Function of this government transit system is bad. It's substandard
- 15:53Speaker 6: for so many of its riders that going on strike.
- 15:57Speaker 6: Can somebody just take the trains over? And I'll bet
- 16:00Speaker 6: you if some guy showed up and said, I'll buy
- 16:04Speaker 6: the train system, I'll buy the Long Island Railroad back
- 16:09Speaker 6: Anderson Cooper should do it his family business and just
- 16:15Speaker 6: operate it as a private enterprise, you know, put trains
- 16:19Speaker 6: on when people need trains. That kind of thing. Don't
- 16:23Speaker 6: virtue signal with transit, which is one of the great
- 16:26Speaker 6: virtue signals. But it is the cookie jar. It is patronage.
- 16:31Speaker 6: I helped you get elected governor, so I want more
- 16:34Speaker 6: train service to the town I represent. So I can say, look,
- 16:37Speaker 6: we're bringing more train service to Mastic Beach or some
- 16:44Speaker 6: such or we're building a train depot, or we're going
- 16:53Speaker 6: to do historic train tours or whatever. The patronage is.
- 16:56Speaker 6: The cookie jar is so corrosive to everything that is American.
- 17:05Speaker 6: When we talked about the cookie jar of federal handouts earlier,
- 17:10Speaker 6: when we were talking about the Great Society, by the
- 17:13Speaker 6: time the early seventies roll around, it's nearly bankrupting the
- 17:17Speaker 6: United States. So they had to drop the gold standard
- 17:22Speaker 6: so that they could print more money to satisfy these
- 17:27Speaker 6: enormous entitlement programs that had only at that point been
- 17:30Speaker 6: around for half a decade, and they were already incapable
- 17:38Speaker 6: of letting go of it because these populists, and remember
- 17:45Speaker 6: see the Great Society never passes prior to the nineteen twenties.
- 17:52Speaker 6: So Woodrow Wilson and all of his progressives taking the
- 17:58Speaker 6: checks and balances out of the American government in creating
- 18:01Speaker 6: this pure democracy drives this where Prior to the twenties,
- 18:14Speaker 6: the US Senate might have said, we can't afford that.
- 18:18Speaker 6: You can't pass that now because senators have to go
- 18:22Speaker 6: back to their states and get re elected. Now you're
- 18:25Speaker 6: not going to say no to it, because now it's pandering,
- 18:28Speaker 6: it's it's it's patronage, it's direct handouts, and sometimes now
- 18:38Speaker 6: we've gotten to the point where more and more of
- 18:41Speaker 6: them are getting purp walked. We talked about Congressoman McCormick
- 18:45Speaker 6: out of Florida five million dollars in FEMA fraud. FEMA
- 18:51Speaker 6: a fund that was designed to help people who are
- 18:55Speaker 6: devastated by a storm or a natural disaster, and you're
- 18:59Speaker 6: stealing from it. I hope you like the smell of
- 19:03Speaker 6: fire and brimstone. Now we come here and the story
- 19:08Speaker 6: that made headlines when it was I guess it was
- 19:13Speaker 6: a slow news day. A lot of you saw the
- 19:15Speaker 6: story of Virginia's top Democrat, Louise Lucas the Lyndon Johnson
- 19:22Speaker 6: or the Frank Underwood of Virginia's government. Either she knows
- 19:27Speaker 6: where your skeletons are, or she's planted some skeletons on
- 19:30Speaker 6: you to make sure you do what she says such
- 19:32Speaker 6: as her control over Virginia's Democratic Party was rated. Now
- 19:39Speaker 6: we know why, yet again COVID fraud. Her company was
- 19:47Speaker 6: getting COVID money. According to the guy that she set
- 19:52Speaker 6: up to take the fall for her, who was apparently
- 19:54Speaker 6: not happy. Maybe it was sounded like a good idea
- 19:57Speaker 6: when he didn't think he'd have to take the fall. Yeah,
- 20:00Speaker 6: he's singing this Carlton, I think Carlton is his last name.
- 20:07Speaker 6: This guy had been set up to run her drug
- 20:09Speaker 6: store and I mean drugs, her dispensary. I'm sorry. And
- 20:17Speaker 6: now he's he's singing a happy tune to federal law enforcement,
- 20:28Speaker 6: saying that, you know, Senator set me up, as it were,
- 20:34Speaker 6: Carlton would is his name, Carlton would, Yeah, he would,
- 20:37Speaker 6: all right, He says, he's just a pawn in this game.
- 20:45Speaker 6: All the businesses that were defrauding the government are in
- 20:49Speaker 6: Louise Lucas's name. And that's what it's about. That's what
- 20:54Speaker 6: all this is about. It's sure, it's a drug store
- 20:57Speaker 6: that's been caught selling the wrong kind of drug, but
- 21:01Speaker 6: the big thing is she got caught, like so many
- 21:04Speaker 6: of these people, with their hand in the cookie jar
- 21:07Speaker 6: and the more frequently. It's just like voter fraud. The
- 21:10Speaker 6: more frequently we catch it, the more likely it is.
- 21:13Speaker 6: It's going on way more than we're catching onto. And
- 21:19Speaker 6: like I said, there's your direct you know, hand in
- 21:23Speaker 6: the cookie jar, your takings, and then there's the patronage
- 21:31Speaker 6: for the friends of a friend, the people who are
- 21:33Speaker 6: going to pay you ten times your money when you
- 21:37Speaker 6: get out of office. And it happens Republicans to look
- 21:40Speaker 6: at how you know Eric Canter going up to lobby
- 21:44Speaker 6: for Wall Street firms paying him way more than he
- 21:47Speaker 6: ever got in the US House of Representatives. How do
- 21:51Speaker 6: he make that connection? That's why you do patronage because
- 21:56Speaker 6: someday you're not going to be some day you're going
- 21:57Speaker 6: to be Bill Cassidy looking for work.

- 23:00Speaker 23: Tell hi, I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American
- 23:04Speaker 23: Veterinary Medical Association. Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's
- 23:10Speaker 23: helping veterinarians deliver better care for pets. From AI assisted
- 23:15Speaker 23: radiographs that speed up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases.
- 23:19Speaker 23: AI supports veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI
- 23:24Speaker 23: to develop personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline

- 28:36Speaker 13: you know. After well, I didn't get a lot of
- 28:38Speaker 13: sleep because I was one of the stupid ones.
- 28:40Speaker 20: A good friend of mine who I teach with, Dan Patrick,
- 28:42Speaker 20: Gordy Hirscheiser, the brother of Ral Hirschheiser.
- 28:45Speaker 13: You've heard me talk about it before. Anyway, Gordy came up.
- 28:47Speaker 13: We were gonna do a beach thing.
- 28:49Speaker 20: We had a birthday party to go to and then
- 28:51Speaker 20: uh so we stay up to watch the whole Jake
- 28:53Speaker 20: Paul fiasco, you know, MVP now whatever whatever it's called.
- 28:58Speaker 20: Jake Paul's Most Valuable Motion and he's taken on Dana
- 29:01Speaker 20: White music. So the whole thing, the Ronda ROUSI was
- 29:04Speaker 20: the main card against Gina Coronto, you know, and I'm
- 29:06Speaker 20: big Vinnie and I are big.
- 29:08Speaker 13: Big, Ronda ROWSI fans we have been for a long time.
- 29:11Speaker 20: Well, anyway, she takes the octagon at midnight, at midnight, Yeah, yeah,
- 29:17Speaker 20: she finishes Gina Corona. All this stuff they stared down,
- 29:21Speaker 20: all you know, the hype and all the crap, and
- 29:23Speaker 20: then next thing, you know, seventeen seconds later, she's got
- 29:26Speaker 20: her in an.
- 29:26Speaker 13: Arm bar after a tackle.
- 29:28Speaker 20: To me, it was the most scripted ending because Ronda's
- 29:31Speaker 20: press conference, Ronda says, well, I just want to make
- 29:34Speaker 20: more babies, you know, so I'm done, you know, she said,
- 29:37Speaker 20: But and then they hugged and they cried, and they
- 29:39Speaker 20: cried on each other's shoulder.
- 29:41Speaker 13: Afterwards in the Arctica, it was the most staged.
- 29:44Speaker 20: I mean, rondick, come on, and Ronda makes two point two.
- 29:48Speaker 20: Gina took a dive for a million, but she tackled
- 29:51Speaker 20: her and seventeen seconds she finished during the arm bar.
- 29:54Speaker 20: It finished like, you know, like they were doing some movie.
- 29:57Speaker 20: I'm so sick for it, and like ESPN's already I
- 30:00Speaker 20: did rest high. Look, it's entertainment, I get it. Millions
- 30:05Speaker 20: of people love it.
- 30:06Speaker 13: I get it. I'm not one, Okay, I'm not years ago.
- 30:11Speaker 20: I was a teenager all about Danny littlebar and handsome
- 30:14Speaker 20: Harley Race. Okay, I was a big, big guy in Timore,
- 30:17Speaker 20: in Iowa, hey Stack Calhoun.
- 30:19Speaker 13: I was huge.
- 30:20Speaker 6: But but now for it's just so much anyway, it
- 30:24Speaker 6: just a well, you know, but hold on a second here.
- 30:26Speaker 6: I've got two words that should have warned you about
- 30:28Speaker 6: this from the get go, Jake and Paul.
- 30:32Speaker 13: Jake, Paul.
- 30:33Speaker 6: That should have told you everything you need to know about.
- 30:36Speaker 20: Exactly exactly all right, the Virginia men's tennis team wins
- 30:39Speaker 20: the Natty yesterday. Just this is just for your counter
- 30:43Speaker 20: thirty seventh national title in the grounds at UVA.
- 30:47Speaker 13: That's seven for men's tennis.
- 30:48Speaker 20: I think women's swimming as six, men's lacrosse as seven,
- 30:52Speaker 20: something like that.
- 30:53Speaker 13: So anyway, congratulations to the tennis team.
- 30:56Speaker 20: All right, now, I want to get into a couple
- 30:58Speaker 20: of sound bites for you, because you're gonna love this.
- 31:00Speaker 20: You know, I don't like the interleague play all year long.
- 31:05Speaker 20: This was a special weekend.
- 31:06Speaker 13: It's in May. This is how to me if you
- 31:09Speaker 13: want to have a couple of inter league weekends. This
- 31:12Speaker 13: was good. It was a rivalry.
- 31:14Speaker 20: You know, you had you had Socks, Cubs, you had Mets, Yankees,
- 31:18Speaker 20: you know, Dodgers, Angels, you know, you had some. Really
- 31:22Speaker 20: that's that's the way it should be done. Maybe over
- 31:24Speaker 20: the July fourth weekend as well. When it gets into September.
- 31:27Speaker 20: I think it's I think it stinks the fact that
- 31:29Speaker 20: right before October and teams are making a push and
- 31:32Speaker 20: you're playing some interleague you know.
- 31:35Speaker 13: Has been with one hundred losses. And that's but that's
- 31:38Speaker 13: a comment for another day. Anyway. So there was a
- 31:41Speaker 13: little uh juice, I guess.
- 31:44Speaker 20: And the Cubs White Sox, you know, north side versus
- 31:47Speaker 20: South Side, and why not it means more in Chicago everything.
- 31:51Speaker 20: And I'm borrowing the sec Moniker Socks Cubs. John Schiffrin
- 31:55Speaker 20: makes the home run call yesterday, Edgar Quero the walk
- 31:58Speaker 20: off in the tenth to.
- 32:00Speaker 13: Eat the Cubs and win the Cubs series. So this
- 32:03Speaker 13: was the TV call.
- 32:06Speaker 20: Caro saves just one tat to left center that get came.
- 32:14Speaker 25: Go.
- 32:15Speaker 4: Caro set up.
- 32:19Speaker 26: Sell upright down, Marius got sucks. Take a series from
- 32:23Speaker 26: the Cobs. Oh, James shout suck step.
- 32:32Speaker 20: Okay, a little too of my soccer call for me
- 32:34Speaker 20: every once, so I just gotta let things breath, let
- 32:36Speaker 20: the fireworks go.
- 32:37Speaker 13: You're on TV, you have to you know it. Sometimes
- 32:39Speaker 13: it's too much about the announcer. Okay, but if you
- 32:42Speaker 13: want a little heat in this rivalry.
- 32:44Speaker 20: And one of the most shocking local broadcast shakeups in
- 32:47Speaker 20: Chicago in a long time several years uh the Cubs
- 32:50Speaker 20: play by play guy Lenn Casper. He left the North
- 32:53Speaker 20: Side for a radio job on the South Side in
- 32:56Speaker 20: twenty twenty. At the time he said, I'll have a
- 32:58Speaker 20: better chance of doing a world game. Oh well, yeah,
- 33:01Speaker 20: how did how did that work out?
- 33:03Speaker 13: Well? He got involved in the Quarol home run call
- 33:06Speaker 13: as well. Time run a third.
- 33:09Speaker 20: Carol hits the fly ball in the deep left center field.
- 33:12Speaker 12: It's back there, that.
- 33:14Speaker 27: Is, Carol.
- 33:19Speaker 12: What's it?
- 33:22Speaker 23: Shut up?
- 33:24Speaker 13: Yes, the young man deserves it.
- 33:27Speaker 28: Oh that was like the an Appalachian State football call. Anyway,
- 33:31Speaker 28: it was you know, the race said, you just got
- 33:33Speaker 28: a little emotional because of it. All right, this time
- 33:35Speaker 28: of year, one of the you know the graduation speeches.
- 33:39Speaker 28: If there's ever a graduation speech that's really good, Just
- 33:43Speaker 28: you know, let me know, because I think when they
- 33:46Speaker 28: get the Jerry Seinfeld's of the world and the you know,
- 33:49Speaker 28: all these you know Madonna's of the world doing graduation speeches,
- 33:53Speaker 28: you know, the Howard Sterns of the world, when they
- 33:55Speaker 28: when they're doing these graduates, you know they is there
- 33:58Speaker 28: ever gonna be like a common you know Seinfeld got
- 34:02Speaker 28: they hated him and he did the Duke graduation speech
- 34:05Speaker 28: a couple of years ago.
- 34:05Speaker 13: They hate the dookies.
- 34:07Speaker 20: Were too smart for someone they and you know he's anyway,
- 34:11Speaker 20: With all that being said, Tom Brady was delivering the
- 34:13Speaker 20: Georgetown graduation speech yesterday, and you know it's the same thing.
- 34:18Speaker 13: Hey, don't count yourself out. You know, who can these
- 34:20Speaker 13: kids are? They got flasks under their robes.
- 34:23Speaker 20: They could care less about, you know, working hard and
- 34:27Speaker 20: you know, never quit and you know you're gonna get
- 34:30Speaker 20: knocked down.
- 34:30Speaker 13: It's not that who gets knocked down, you know quotes
- 34:34Speaker 13: from Rocky you know.
- 34:35Speaker 20: So anyway, but it took at the very end of
- 34:38Speaker 20: Brady's speech, at least he had a chance with.
- 34:41Speaker 13: A little humor talking about a guy that he used
- 34:43Speaker 13: to work with.
- 34:44Speaker 27: I want you to challenge yourself with ideas that are
- 34:47Speaker 27: uncomfortable and people who push you to be your very best,
- 34:52Speaker 27: even if one of those people is a cranky old
- 34:54Speaker 27: coach who cuts the sleeves off his sweatshirt and screams
- 34:57Speaker 27: at you all day.
- 34:58Speaker 13: Do your job.
- 34:58Speaker 27: Okay, that's too specif my experience, you guys get the point.
- 35:02Speaker 13: You get the point, dude, job.
- 35:04Speaker 6: So he didn't get called. Nobody asked him to deliver
- 35:07Speaker 6: the conmencement speech at North Carolina.
- 35:11Speaker 13: Really really, is that not a natural fit? You're exactly right.
- 35:15Speaker 13: That would have been perfect anyway.
- 35:18Speaker 20: But had a lot of fun, and especially yesterday with
- 35:22Speaker 20: you know, got a little beach time in the morning
- 35:24Speaker 20: and then got to, you know, watch the coverage of
- 35:26Speaker 20: the PGA Championship in Ironomic, which.
- 35:28Speaker 13: Was just really really good. But Aaron Raye is this guy.
- 35:31Speaker 20: He lives just up the road in Jacksonville, and you
- 35:34Speaker 20: know it, it had been nineteen nineteen since the last
- 35:38Speaker 20: Englishman to win the PGA Championship.
- 35:40Speaker 13: And he had he shot sixty five. He's holding off
- 35:44Speaker 13: all these guys.
- 35:45Speaker 20: John Rahm was chasing, Alex Smalley was chasing, McElroy was
- 35:49Speaker 20: chasing they all, you know, but he made an eagle
- 35:52Speaker 20: on nine.
- 35:52Speaker 13: And he had a sixty eight seventeen.
- 35:56Speaker 6: I saw that. I'll mean, oh yeah, how about that.
- 35:58Speaker 6: I mean much of people drive that swerved that much?
- 36:03Speaker 6: How do you read a green that far?
- 36:06Speaker 13: Greens were they were really really severe. I mean they
- 36:10Speaker 13: were really severe, and uh, but it was great for
- 36:13Speaker 13: this guy. This guy is a gentleman. He uh, you know,
- 36:17Speaker 13: had a couple of tour wins and he you know,
- 36:19Speaker 13: he ends up when it was you know, it was special.
- 36:22Speaker 13: So anyway for.
- 36:23Speaker 20: Him, congratulations and now he's you know, a major winner
- 36:26Speaker 20: and everything that that goes with it.
- 36:29Speaker 13: So that's, uh, you know, that's great stuff. All Right.
- 36:31Speaker 20: We now have the you know, the Cleveland Cavaliers destroyed
- 36:35Speaker 20: Detroit yesterday. I mean, ye ripped Detroit yesterday in the NBA.
- 36:39Speaker 20: But tonight there there may not be a matchup that
- 36:43Speaker 20: I've been more excited about watching and following for a
- 36:46Speaker 20: long time. When you've got Shay Gilders Alexander versus win Binyama. Yeah,
- 36:52Speaker 20: I know it's a team game, it's not two guys,
- 36:54Speaker 20: but but you've got some really all star in this
- 36:57Speaker 20: in this series with San Antonio and Oklahoma City, it's
- 37:01Speaker 20: gonna it's gonna be great.
- 37:02Speaker 13: I think it's gonna be really, really good.
- 37:04Speaker 20: And San Antonio beat them four times during the year,
- 37:07Speaker 20: you know, so I think it's gonna be just a
- 37:09Speaker 20: wonderful series now that Cleveland Cavaliers are in, and so
- 37:12Speaker 20: Donovan Mitchell, Jalen Brunson, you got the same thing in
- 37:15Speaker 20: the East.
- 37:15Speaker 13: So actually we've got the conference finals are gonna be
- 37:19Speaker 13: I think gonna be a lot of fun.
- 37:20Speaker 6: Not that I have any skin in the game, but
- 37:23Speaker 6: I always enjoy moments of this kind of schadenfreud, as
- 37:27Speaker 6: is Lebron James gets exited from the playoffs relatively ignominiously.
- 37:32Speaker 6: I think we've swept out four games to none and
- 37:35Speaker 6: Cleveland Cleveland is still playing.
- 37:38Speaker 13: Is still I've been in the finals since Lebron's last year.
- 37:41Speaker 6: I don't, but it's just it's just one of those.
- 37:44Speaker 6: And I know Cleveland fan is sitting there saying, yeah, Lebron, yeah,
- 37:47Speaker 6: take your take your challenge, take your talents and stick
- 37:51Speaker 6: them somewhere. I just I live for those. It's a
- 37:54Speaker 6: guilty pleasure.
- 37:55Speaker 13: I enjoy watching have a good Monday. I always do.
- 38:01Speaker 10: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
- 38:05Speaker 10: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
- 38:08Speaker 10: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
- 38:11Speaker 10: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
- 38:15Speaker 10: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
- 38:19Speaker 10: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
- 38:22Speaker 10: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
- 38:26Speaker 10: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
- 38:29Speaker 10: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
- 38:33Speaker 10: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
- 38:37Speaker 10: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
- 38:41Speaker 10: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
- 38:45Speaker 10: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
- 38:49Speaker 10: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
- 38:52Speaker 10: yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves
- 38:55Speaker 10: to complete tasks. Visit Discovery education dot com to learn

- 44:36Speaker 6: to you each and every morning. No, I don't you
- 44:40Speaker 6: know avert your eyes. I'm not actually looking in your eyes.
- 44:43Speaker 6: It's just a song lyric. But you know, little Vizine
- 44:48Speaker 6: just saying it's a long weekend. I get you, I
- 44:50Speaker 6: feel you. H four three four eight eight two four
- 44:53Speaker 6: two one seven is our phone number. You can also
- 44:56Speaker 6: use that as text messages because you have three times
- 45:00Speaker 6: dam Sinnaday, you have AM, you have PM, and you
- 45:03Speaker 6: have LM and last minute is the time that we
- 45:08Speaker 6: all get together. So I understand not having time to
- 45:11Speaker 6: sit down and make a phone call and sit.
- 45:13Speaker 13: And chat with us.
- 45:14Speaker 6: This text message came in, he says, Joe, just stop
- 45:19Speaker 6: using Gmail for your mail and your problems will be solved.
- 45:24Speaker 13: You're right.
- 45:25Speaker 6: Duck duck go has branched into browser services, and I've
- 45:29Speaker 6: stopped believing that they are a way to get around
- 45:32Speaker 6: surveillance of my emails. Well, yeah, as soon as duck
- 45:36Speaker 6: duck go became a thing, I think pretty much that
- 45:39Speaker 6: you're out the door towards the reasonability of privacy of
- 45:45Speaker 6: your searches and things like that. And he's talking about
- 45:51Speaker 6: the fact that my inbox for JT in the Morning
- 45:55Speaker 6: Radio at gmail dot com is fourteen point seven gigabytes
- 46:01Speaker 6: of the fifteen gigabytes I have allowed to me, and
- 46:04Speaker 6: I can't delete anything. I move everything into trash that
- 46:09Speaker 6: I want to get rid of by the way it
- 46:12Speaker 6: had been programmed. I had it told listen after this
- 46:16Speaker 6: many you know archive and Nope, hasn't done it. For well,
- 46:23Speaker 6: I get a lot of emails, so I'm not going
- 46:25Speaker 6: to even guess how long it takes me to build
- 46:28Speaker 6: up fourteen almost fifteen gigabytes of email. But people, you know,
- 46:32Speaker 6: press releases and things like that, you know, they take
- 46:35Speaker 6: up some space. People send photographs and gifts. It's just
- 46:39Speaker 6: I've got to figure out a way to get this
- 46:43Speaker 6: all this stuff out of here so people can start
- 46:45Speaker 6: getting us emails. I don't want to start getting your
- 46:48Speaker 6: emails bounced back as my inbox is full, because that's
- 46:52Speaker 6: bad housekeeping on my part. So the Cassidy primary a
- 47:00Speaker 6: lot of people talking about how this was Trump's grip
- 47:05Speaker 6: on the Republican Party. I don't want to ask anyone
- 47:10Speaker 6: to take a moment. Let's take personality out of it
- 47:14Speaker 6: and everything else. But go around and look in just
- 47:20Speaker 6: about every state in the Union outside of California oddly,
- 47:28Speaker 6: and find me a state where all the Democrats don't
- 47:31Speaker 6: march in lockstep with party leadership. You have far more
- 47:38Speaker 6: people in the Republican Party like Tommy Massey speaking out
- 47:42Speaker 6: against some of the policies, not even all of the policies,
- 47:45Speaker 6: some of the policies some of the things that President
- 47:48Speaker 6: Trump wants to do than you do in the Democratic Party,
- 47:55Speaker 6: where I mean it's John Fetterman and all John Fetterman
- 47:58Speaker 6: is going to pay the price and he's not going
- 48:01Speaker 6: to win another election. And I find that the Democratic
- 48:06Speaker 6: Party is the one, perhaps not with a figurehead like
- 48:11Speaker 6: Donald Trump to point at. Is it Chuck Schumer? Is
- 48:17Speaker 6: it you know, Hakeem Jeffries, You know these folks. Is
- 48:26Speaker 6: it George Soros who just has the money. He doesn't
- 48:29Speaker 6: have to have the office, He's got the money. But
- 48:32Speaker 6: you so rarely see them walk out of line. That's
- 48:36Speaker 6: what makes this raid on Virginia's Democratic leader Louise Lucas
- 48:39Speaker 6: so interesting. Her district in Portsmouth is not going to
- 48:43Speaker 6: flip to a Republican. However, what does this mean to
- 48:47Speaker 6: all of those Senate Democrats that might have wanted to
- 48:52Speaker 6: vote along with the Republicans on something that was important
- 48:57Speaker 6: in their district?
- 48:59Speaker 13: But you can't. So we need.
- 49:02Speaker 6: March and lockstep. If that power broker is not there anymore,
- 49:10Speaker 6: what does that do? That vacuum and it's just interesting
- 49:14Speaker 6: to watch everyone talking about how this is Trump's grip
- 49:19Speaker 6: on the political party. Also over the weekend, we were
- 49:29Speaker 6: getting into the failures of government unions. The government union
- 49:35Speaker 6: relationship is so counter productive. I'm going to use that
- 49:42Speaker 6: phrase because it doesn't help anyone, and it is. It
- 49:50Speaker 6: just drives up the cost of living everywhere. And Virginia,
- 49:56Speaker 6: our flagship state, just vetoed a law that would have
- 50:02Speaker 6: guaranteed unionization of government services. We don't have unions in
- 50:07Speaker 6: a lot of other places because we're one of those
- 50:10Speaker 6: right to work states. But they were going to set
- 50:13Speaker 6: up unions for government jobs, and the governor wanted to
- 50:20Speaker 6: delay implementation of this collective bargaining program until after she
- 50:26Speaker 6: was out of office. Interesting that until after the presidential
- 50:32Speaker 6: election of twenty twenty eight, which many people say she's
- 50:36Speaker 6: a favorite for now. Even interesting that so these agendas
- 50:44Speaker 6: that don't wind up in the Long Island Railroad strike.
- 50:47Speaker 6: It's just one of many instances where you're seeing the
- 50:52Speaker 6: citizens who are pandered to by these politicians wind up
- 50:56Speaker 6: being the ones in the basement being held hostage by
- 51:03Speaker 6: these government sector unions who never ever have to worry
- 51:07Speaker 6: about their enterprise going out of business just once. I
- 51:16Speaker 6: would love to see some municipal government say all right, well,
- 51:20Speaker 6: you know all the train workers and we're just going
- 51:22Speaker 6: to shut the trains down. I mean, not just for
- 51:27Speaker 6: the strike. I'm just saying we're not going to do
- 51:28Speaker 6: it anymore. We're going to shut that particular branch of
- 51:31Speaker 6: government down. Don't need to be doing it. Somebody else
- 51:34Speaker 6: can buy the trains from us. We'll take we'll take auctions,
- 51:42Speaker 6: turn them all into bike trails or whatever you want
- 51:45Speaker 6: to do with the track beds. But that's the thing
- 51:51Speaker 6: that the governments are never going to do that because
- 51:54Speaker 6: it's it's always about virtue signaling. It's it's about saying
- 51:59Speaker 6: we've done something for you. It's just what Bill Cassidy's
- 52:05Speaker 6: concession quote unquote speech said, I care about the welfare
- 52:09Speaker 6: of Louisiana's and yeah, it makes sure they have the opportunities.
- 52:16Speaker 6: Nobody is getting in the way of their opportunity. But
- 52:19Speaker 6: too many of these people have taken it upon themselves
- 52:22Speaker 6: to be the deliverer of these services, and that's how
- 52:26Speaker 6: we wind up so far in debt, that's how we
- 52:29Speaker 6: wind up with such bad bureaucratic service in so many
- 52:32Speaker 6: places because it's not in anyone's interest, outside of a
- 52:38Speaker 6: politician's interest, to be seen as doing something for their
- 52:43Speaker 6: next re election campaign. And it's how we've wound up
- 52:47Speaker 6: here on this two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. In today's
