  Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Tonk Media Network.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: All natural and free of artificial intelligence.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Joe works at the steel mill.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: He's damn near every day. Leaves for work when the
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: sun comes up. Drops the kids to school and on

  Speaker 3: treasures that he needs. No wonder Joe's always smiling.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: He only aims to please you.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: Thank you for letting me be of service to you
• 0:35
  Speaker 5: this morning. While you bask in the amplitude or frequency
• 0:42
  Speaker 5: modulation goodness of your favorite radio station, I will endeavor
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: to tell you what went on last night, and then
• 0:50
  Speaker 5: I'll give you my analysis of it. And especially if
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: it's something that maybe nobody else is covering, and I
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: find it interesting how Few news sites really are paying
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: attention to this meta settlement. It's interesting to me because
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: I figured it would be front page, Associated Press. I
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: don't even think I saw it on Newsmax. It's an
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: interesting look into the decisions that are being made in
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: newsrooms today. these days, but we'll get into that this morning. Uh,
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: also the hacking of the department of justice, you'd think
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: maybe the training would be there. Um, and the human
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: factor involved in internet security, I think is an important thing. Uh,
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: their regulations, we talked a little bit about the cost
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: and the impact of regulations. I've went out, uh, gone
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: out to find someone who can back me up on
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: some of the stuff I say, uh, and, um, Marin
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: from the Competitive Enterprise Institute will join us in a
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: little while to run down the actual impact of some
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: of these will, for the sake of argument, just say, well-intentioned.
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: You know, how hard are you trying not to? Because
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: what happens is Some do-gooding congressman trying to chase a
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: TV camera down. Remember the expression, most dangerous place in
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: Washington is between a congressman and a TV camera. But
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: the do-gooder congressman sets in motion a series of bureaucratic
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: efforts that don't wind up doing anything, nor were they
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: probably ever intended to. But you've got bureaucrats who's feeling
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: like it's their job to make these things happen. And
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: then they try to make them happen. And they're like, well,
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: this was nutty. I don't know why they asked me
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: to do this. They do because they do. Our first
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: things this morning. Here are those things that you need
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: to know about. United States said Wednesday it had disrupted
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: a hacking operation out of China. responsible for break-ins at
• 3:21

• 3:25
  Speaker 5: the U.S.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Senate.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: The domains that were the source of these attacks were
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: QScan and QT Router. They've both been seized by the
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: Department of Justice. Rescue teams searched Thursday for hundreds of
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: missing people along the Nepal-China border after a catastrophic deadly
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: torrent of floods and mud swept through several communities. The
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: disaster has killed 170 so far, with 1,300 still missing.
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: The Kremlin announced Wednesday that CIA Director John Ratcliffe had
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: been in town to hold secret meetings as he is
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: the head of the CIA's With high-ranking administration officials in Moscow,
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: but not Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Peskov, spokesman for the Kremlin,
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: said Ratcliffe's meeting was productive and it was all reported
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: back to President Putin. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the accused mastermind
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: of the September 11th terrorist attacks, and three alleged co-conspirators
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: are sent to stand a jury tile. A military judge
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: ruled Wednesday as Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Michael Schrama. The
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: colonel set the trial date for June 5, 2028. rejecting
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: prosecutors' request to begin proceedings in January of 2027, saying
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: there were still other legal matters to settle out. And
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: NFL owners Wednesday unanimously approved the $ 9. 6 billion sale of
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: the Seattle Seahawks to Vinod Khosla and his family. He
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: is currently part owners of the San Francisco 49ers. That's
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: going to be awkward. And those are some of our
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: first things this morning here on the Talk Media Network.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: I slept weird last night. And, you know, I have
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: to be careful. We have this partnership, and I use
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: this CBD oil from Mesa Verde Hemp. And I thought
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: about it. I said, you know, I could really sound
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: like one of those whiny crybabies. But, you know, my
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: knees hurt because I was a catcher. I'm not going
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: to blame someone else that my knees hurt. I played
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: catcher into my 40s when most every other guy had
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: moved on to softball and playing right field. The only
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: time I do anything athletic is when I go to
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: replace my beer.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: But I did.
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: I slept weird, which is unusual for me. I mean,
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: I used to sleep on New York City subway trains
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: and felt fine. I took CBD oil this morning from
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: Mesa Verde Hemp. Feeling better almost before I got down

• 9:05
  Speaker 11: mid-century side table and denim jacket you spotted them nestled
• 9:09
  Speaker 11: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.

• 9:16
  Speaker 11: Your favorite half-breakfast pastry, half-all-day dessert food made into your

• 9:27
  Speaker 12: Shh.
• 9:29
  Speaker 13: Do you smell that?

• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Goodwill.

• 9:57
  Speaker 15: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 10:02
  Speaker 15: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 15: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 10:12
  Speaker 15: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 10:15
  Speaker 15: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 10:21
  Speaker 15: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 10:24
  Speaker 15: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:27
  Speaker 15: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:32
  Speaker 15: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 10:36
  Speaker 15: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
• 10:40

  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 12:35
  Speaker 19: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 12:39
  Speaker 19: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 12:42
  Speaker 19: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message

  Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Media Network by Joe Thomas. All across America, talk radio
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and the voices of freedom.
• 13:25
  Speaker 14: Hi.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Don't stop talking.
• 13:28
  Speaker 13: Don't stop sharing.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Don't stop laughing.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Don't stop caring.
• 13:33
  Speaker 19: Karen.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: As long as you've got a voice.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Don't ever stop.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: I want to speak to your manager, please.
• 13:42
  Speaker 16: Make our freedom shine longer.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: Spread the love of love.
• 13:48
  Speaker 8: Build our friendships much stronger.
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: And make every moment profound.
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: Or as we used to pronounce it in my neighborhood, Profund.
• 13:58
  Speaker 18: 434-882-4217.
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: Funny Karen story.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: For you.
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: Our flagship station is just finishing a major... And I
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: have to be careful because it would be very easy
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: for me to grouse and complain because it's taken almost
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: a year for us to move our AM flagship station
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: from one tower to a new one. And amazing people
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: have been in every step of this process. And it's
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: a process that... Companies larger than mine just don't even
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: bother undertaking. So little do they care about serving you
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: or anyone else in your neighborhood that they're like, you
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: know what, let's tear it down and we'll call it
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: a day. Happened in Las Vegas with one of the
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: big chain companies. People don't, you know, and then we
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: demand that Congress make a law that says you have
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: to have AM radios. in your car? And how is
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: that helping anyone? And Hamp asked a question, we were
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: talking about the New York City subway, and he said,
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: how many people actually pay for the subway? I don't know.
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: I go there and I don't see that many when
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: I'm in New York and I'm riding the subways or
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: I'm down in the subways. I don't see that many
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: fare jumpers. The gates have become harder to do that with.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: I'm sure there are, and I'm sure there are people
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: who scam their way into free fare cards as well
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: from the city of New York. But so for 0.68
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: million people each day ride the New York City subways,
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: And it's $ 2. 25, I think, to ride it, or at
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: least the last time I bought a New York City
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: subway token. That's what it costs. So that's $ 10. 5 million
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: a day. And, you know, it's not fair because we
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: point to the U.S. Postal Service as an example of
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: why government shouldn't be trusted to do something. And I think,
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: you know, you want your medical system run like the
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: Department of Motor Vehicles. You want your hospitals operated like
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: the Postal Service. But I think mass transit is often
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: forgotten because we don't all live in big cities with
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: You know, the BART system in San Francisco, or I'm
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: not sure what it's called in Boston. They have some,
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: or Maryland, they do light rail. Light rail's the biggest,
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: oh my gosh, what a, D.C.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: Area.
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: A lot of people ride the D.C. Metro. It's not
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: efficient and it hemorrhages cash and it doesn't go anywhere
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: except some areas that you think you might need. There's
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: only about five lines. So depending on your area and buses,
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: New York City has dedicated specific lanes of traffic in
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: Manhattan just to buses. Okay, now buses start to become
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: efficient ways to get around. But railroads, even within cities,
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: and keeping in mind the biggest subway systems in the world,
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: New York, Tokyo, was Tokyo private? It was part of
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: the government. We're rebuilding and such. But New York City's
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: subway system, the aforementioned 4.68 million people per day, built
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: by three different private companies, not by the government. And sure,
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: there are some of the subway lines you wonder, why
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: does it go here now? Because when it was built
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: in the 30s and the 20s, there was a reason
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: to run the train out to some neck of the woods.
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: But it was built by private companies who got permission
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: from the New York City government to dig up various
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: streets in Manhattan and lay railway tracks under the streets
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: and bring people from one point to another. And it
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: is so bankrupt. They can't get an employee contract going
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: because the employees want more and more money. There are
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: black hole of finances, Chicago, every place there's a mass
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: transit system. It just, it's a, what are the, what's
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: the expression they use about boats? It's a hole in
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: the water you throw money into. Well, in mass transit
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: systems are much the same way. They're a hole in
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: your city or county budget that you throw money into.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: And without apologies to Margaret Thatcher, we need to privatize
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: these things because you tell me a business, tell me
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: a business that can generate $ 10. 5 million in revenue per
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: day and not be profitable. I mean, if you go
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: out on that, that's generated revenue of $ 3. 84 billion in
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: revenue just from the fares. That's not counting advertising on
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: the little light bars inside the trains or anything like that.
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: Generates $ 3.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: 84 billion in revenue.
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: If you had a business that generated $ 3. 84 billion in
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: I'll bet you, you could break even. I mean, I'd
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: be happy with 1% of that in daily revenue. Are
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: you kidding me? And I think most businesses would, but
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: this is another place where when you look, and it
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: starts with Gavin Newsom's train to nowhere. That's where we
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: began on this. And, you know, more interest and more
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: money going into the train to nowhere. And it begins
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: with an email, a text message, snarky text message from
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: California saying, oh, great, California is getting $ 2. 2 billion in
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: the meta settlement. What are they going to waste that on?
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: More track for the train to nowhere? Contrarily, you know,
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: Mark Zuckerberg would just use that money to try to
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: pay for election fraud. So it's better not in his
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: hand anyway. But think about a business that generates $ 10
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: million a day and it loses money.
• 22:01
  Speaker 20: Let's see if something costs less, but people are happier
• 22:05
  Speaker 20: with it. That sounds like something to look into. And
• 22:07
  Speaker 20: that is MediShare. Maybe you've heard switching to MediShare to
• 22:10
  Speaker 20: pay for health care can save many families up to
• 22:13
  Speaker 20: 500 bucks a month. And that is huge. But it's
• 22:15
  Speaker 20: also true that people are way more satisfied after making
• 22:18
  Speaker 20: the switch to the member satisfaction rate for MediShare is
• 22:22
  Speaker 20: double that of the typical health insurance plan.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Double.
• 22:25
  Speaker 20: MediShare works too. It's been around for 30 years. Members
• 22:28
  Speaker 20: have shared more than $ 5 billion of each other's bills.
• 22:32
  Speaker 20: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.
• 22:35
  Speaker 20: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
• 22:37
  Speaker 20: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care

• 28:24
  Speaker 5: thing today by Joe Thomas here and brought to you
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: by the lunch pail foundation helping people get or young
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: people get scholarships. It's What's Important Now, W-I-N. Good morning, Mac.
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: How are you doing this morning, sir?
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: It's my favorite. Favorite eight minutes.
• 28:43
  Speaker 25: Okay.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: It's my second favorite eight minutes of the day.
• 28:47
  Speaker 25: Okay.
• 28:48
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Mixing your Tito's. Yeah. Exactly. I beat, I beat two
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: of my buddies last night in pool.
• 28:56
  Speaker 12: One of my favorite things to do is go to
• 28:57
  Speaker 12: the sports bar, have a nice tea and with TVs
• 29:00
  Speaker 12: going on and games going, and then you play a
• 29:02
  Speaker 12: little pool. I love billiards and pool in a, in
• 29:04
  Speaker 12: a sports bar atmosphere. Where, you know, people are screaming,
• 29:07
  Speaker 12: you got to tell people to move and that kind
• 29:09
  Speaker 12: of thing. It's one of my favorite things. And so
• 29:11
  Speaker 12: last night I was on fire and these two guys
• 29:13
  Speaker 12: could not stand it.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: And they give me a cry. Oh, you're lucky. And
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: I go, no, no, I'm three. No, I'm not lucky.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: I'm 3-0. I beat you two. So anyway, it's one
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: of my favorite things.
• 29:23
  Speaker 12: You know, beach people, when you're at the beach, you know,
• 29:25
  Speaker 12: when it rains and it pours yesterday.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: All right, Big 12, unanimous.
• 29:30
  Speaker 12: In fact, Big 12, first conference to say all sports.
• 29:33
  Speaker 12: We're banning all sports. We don't care if.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: It's softball, lacrosse, track and field pros coming back. No,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: all sports.
• 29:39
  Speaker 12: So the SEC presidents approved the penalties to deter schools
• 29:44
  Speaker 12: from signing players. Now, Greg Sankey has not had a
• 29:46
  Speaker 12: formal press conference.
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: Now you're talking about the pros who are trying to
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: come back.
• 29:51
  Speaker 12: The pros trying to come back, yeah, because it's been
• 29:52
  Speaker 12: an ongoing story, but I feel kind of a commitment
• 29:55
  Speaker 12: that let's update people with who's voting what. The ACC
• 29:58
  Speaker 12: will vote, and well, they'll release their findings today. LSU
• 30:03
  Speaker 12: abstained from Wednesday's vote on penalties because LSU said, well,
• 30:08
  Speaker 12: we don't have a chance to talk about it and
• 30:10
  Speaker 12: come forward publicly, so we're going to abstain.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: So LSU did not vote, but The SEC said, here
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: we go.
• 30:16
  Speaker 12: The coach is suspended for half the season if they
• 30:19
  Speaker 12: make a move. A fine of 50% of that fiscal
• 30:22
  Speaker 12: year's operating budget. The school's loss of voting privileges and
• 30:26
  Speaker 12: any additional penalties the.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Commissioner and presidents deem appropriate. There you go.
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: So let's– here's a guy I like. And here's a
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: great take.
• 30:35
  Speaker 12: Kirby Smart spent 20 minutes talking about his team and
• 30:38
  Speaker 12: offense and defense and what they're doing and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Naturally,
• 30:41
  Speaker 12: he got the question because writers don't, they don't go
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: write the first part of the press conference.
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, no.
• 30:47
  Speaker 12: They delay it to soften up the coach with their
• 30:49
  Speaker 12: softball questions. And then they go, okay, Kirby, how do
• 30:52
  Speaker 12: you feel about this whole thing?
• 30:54
  Speaker 9: To each his own is my thought. I'm worried about
• 30:57
  Speaker 9: our team, our organization, how we do things, the opportunities
• 31:01
  Speaker 9: presented to the guys on our team. is important to me.
• 31:04
  Speaker 9: They've earned those opportunities through an off-season, through a summer program,
• 31:09
  Speaker 9: through a really tough fall camp. You have to decide,
• 31:13
  Speaker 9: each and every person, if that's valuable enough to warrant
• 31:17
  Speaker 9: replacing your players that have worked with your team with others.
• 31:22
  Speaker 12: OK, so well said, you know, if you know that
• 31:25
  Speaker 12: I don't want to take a roster spot, basically, is
• 31:27
  Speaker 12: what he's saying.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: OK, it's fair.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Long time ago, I had to talk with your VP,
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Vinny Kais.
• 31:31
  Speaker 12: Vinny, Vinny left Vinny one time three or four years
• 31:34
  Speaker 12: ago and he could validate this story. He asked me,
• 31:36
  Speaker 12: he goes, how can how can how do teams win?
• 31:41
  Speaker 12: In college Atlanta. And so I used the B word.
• 31:43
  Speaker 12: I said, you've got to have several Bs on your roster.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: You've got to have Bs.
• 31:49
  Speaker 12: And I said, if you find a program that's got
• 31:51
  Speaker 12: multiple arrests, then you're going to be really good, more
• 31:55
  Speaker 12: than likely. Well, Virginia's 137th football season will start Saturday.
• 32:01
  Speaker 12: But running back Solomon Beebe will not be a part
• 32:04
  Speaker 12: of it. The junior from Montgomery, Alabama, arrested and charged–
• 32:09
  Speaker 12: with three counts of animal cruelty.
• 32:11
  Speaker 10: Oh, no.
• 32:12
  Speaker 12: All right, so court records say August 10th, B.B. was
• 32:16
  Speaker 12: seen at his apartment. He was from UAB. He played
• 32:18
  Speaker 12: his football and then transferred.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: He's a junior.
• 32:21
  Speaker 12: At his apartment complex, hitting his dog multiple times. Now,
• 32:27
  Speaker 12: this included somebody who saw him at the apartment complex,
• 32:32
  Speaker 12: putting the dog, holding.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: It against the wall, and punching it with a closed fist.
• 32:38
  Speaker 12: Uh, BB, uh, you know, with 20, so 29 new
• 32:42
  Speaker 12: players and, you know, they're trying to sell out the
• 32:44
  Speaker 12: stadium and all is rosy for UVA and their favorite
• 32:46
  Speaker 12: against NC state.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: And this is a big game in week zero.
• 32:50
  Speaker 12: Uh, anyway, 29 new players, Bo Pribula, Michigan safety, Brandon Hillman.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Uh, so openers can be a bit tricky.
• 32:59
  Speaker 12: But now you've got this cloud. So I told Vinny,
• 33:00
  Speaker 12: I go, hey, I'm going to send Vinny a text
• 33:03
  Speaker 12: this morning. Hey, Virginia's going to be pretty good. They've
• 33:05
  Speaker 12: already had an arrest to begin the season.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: So that's, you know.
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: Nice. That's the SEC paradigm. The more time we spend
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: in the who's gal.
• 33:15
  Speaker 12: Hey, how good has Georgia been since those guys don't
• 33:18
  Speaker 12: know what a speed limit is, you.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Know, at Georgia. So anyway, it's all good.
• 33:22
  Speaker 12: But according to a little press conference fodder, according to
• 33:26
  Speaker 12: Tony Elliott, it's hard to scout in this day and
• 33:29
  Speaker 12: age with all the transfers so you you prepare a
• 33:32
  Speaker 12: different way.
• 33:33
  Speaker 14: You got to focus more on what you do and
• 33:35
  Speaker 14: then you know don't necessarily look at personnel and work
• 33:38
  Speaker 14: on structures and things that that you see throughout the
• 33:41
  Speaker 14: course of camp beautiful thing about where we are what
• 33:44
  Speaker 14: we do offensively is going to prepare our defense for
• 33:47
  Speaker 14: pretty much anything that they're going to see and then
• 33:49
  Speaker 14: vice versa with with the complexity and versatility of what
• 33:53
  Speaker 14: We do on defense.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: It prepares our offense. All right. It's a soundbite. It's
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: coach speak. Basically, you can't get a lot of film
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: in a lot of the transfers. So, you know, all right.
• 34:02
  Speaker 12: Two stories popped this morning. First thing, my coffee at 545.
• 34:08
  Speaker 12: Two stories popped. One, I could care less. The other one,
• 34:12
  Speaker 12: I'm concerned. Okay, so the first one in the care
• 34:15
  Speaker 12: less category, the NFL Pro Bowl.
• 34:18
  Speaker 18: No more.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: It ends a 75-year run for football's all-star game. Thank you, Bill. Touchdown, Jesus.
• 34:26
  Speaker 12: The NFL becomes the first major sports league to scrap
• 34:30
  Speaker 12: its all-star competition in an era where drawing interest in
• 34:33
  Speaker 12: these games has become a little more challenging. You think
• 34:36
  Speaker 12: watching guys play flag football and run and jump on
• 34:40
  Speaker 12: lifts and all that stuff.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Players will simply earn Pro Bowl honors. There will be
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: no games.
• 34:45
  Speaker 12: So no coming to Orlando, no selling $ 10 tickets so
• 34:48
  Speaker 12: you can just watch them run around.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Come to Orlando and, hey.
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, but here's the thing. I think they should,
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: and they were going this route. This was the normalization
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: of flag football. And I know they're going there. Ten
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: years from now, we're not going to be playing tackle
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: football anymore. And, you know, getting rid of the all-star
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: game is, I think, I think it's a sign that
• 35:18
  Speaker 5: it's actually coming because too many people were watching it
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: and thinking, hey, you know. I get to see the
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: big touchdown pass. I get to see the big touchdown run.
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: And my favorite player doesn't get his knee blown up
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: on the second play from scrimmage. I'm kind of liking this.
• 35:37
  Speaker 12: You remember the days of the college team playing the
• 35:40
  Speaker 12: pro team and, you know, the season-ending little get-together, whatever
• 35:44
  Speaker 12: it was, or it's the beginning of the year, whatever
• 35:46
  Speaker 12: it was.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do. Uh, anyway, what, and I'll save my
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: story for tomorrow. I got a funny, funny.
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: When did the idea of all-star games even start? I mean,
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: I know they played in the thirties and baseball and
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: they would have all.
• 36:00
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I think the baseball all-star game for, you know,
• 36:02
  Speaker 12: years and years and years and years and years was
• 36:05
  Speaker 12: just like, I mean, it was, so I know that
• 36:07
  Speaker 12: was appointment TV from my father and I, that's how
• 36:10
  Speaker 12: he taught me to keep a baseball scorebook. And we
• 36:12
  Speaker 12: couldn't wait till that night in July, summer night, iced
• 36:16
  Speaker 12: tea on a TV tray, kicking.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Back, watching, you know, black and white. And then eventually
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: when he got the color TV, it was a big thing.
• 36:22
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: Now, so here's the story then that, that bothered me.
• 36:25
  Speaker 12: And I'll tell you why ESPN, the four letter ESPN,
• 36:28
  Speaker 12: with all the football coverage in the world, confirmed to
• 36:30
  Speaker 12: multiple outlets yesterday they are going to get rid of
• 36:33
  Speaker 12: the bottom line ticker during its college football broadcast. And
• 36:37
  Speaker 12: you can go to theathletic.com and you can vote, saying
• 36:40
  Speaker 12: it's a travesty, or I check scores on my phone anyway,
• 36:43
  Speaker 12: it doesn't bother me.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Scores, whether you play the ponies.
• 36:47
  Speaker 12: Or not, whether you've got a couple of dollars on,
• 36:50
  Speaker 12: you know, Bemidji State, the ticker was just something that
• 36:54
  Speaker 12: was there that you could, you know, you could track.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: And yeah, you got your phone in your hand and yeah,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: I go back and look and whatever. When I was
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: doing games, I.
• 37:03
  Speaker 12: When I was building networks at the University of Virginia
• 37:05
  Speaker 12: and Wake Forest, I told my guys, look, scores are important.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: ACC basketball Wednesday nights, important. Football Saturdays, important.
• 37:15
  Speaker 12: So I made it a radio staple that somebody just
• 37:19
  Speaker 12: do me a favor, keep up with scores. And so
• 37:21
  Speaker 12: the guy back in the studio would keep up with scores.
• 37:23
  Speaker 12: It was an important thing. They're going to get rid
• 37:26
  Speaker 12: of the ticker?
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: Really?
• 37:28
  Speaker 9: Really?
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: I mean, come on, Mac. I've listened to some of
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: the folks that do what you used to do. And
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: I have a hard time getting them to give the
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: score of the game they're broadcasting. Well, that's true.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: That's true. I was drilled, though. I was drilled at
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Northwest Missouri State.
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: You used to have an egg timer, five minutes, and
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: you had to give the score.
• 37:47
  Speaker 12: Three-minute timer. We had a three-minute egg timer. That's exactly right.
• 37:51
  Speaker 12: Or a punch in the ribs from my comment.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: You haven't given us one. All right. Be good. Have
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: a good Thursday. I will see you first thing in

  Speaker 10: In 2024, the American Heart Association celebrates 100 years of
• 38:06
  Speaker 10: life-saving service as the world's leading nonprofit organization focused on
• 38:10
  Speaker 10: heart and brain health. Heart disease still kills more people
• 38:13
  Speaker 10: in the United States each year than all types of
• 38:15
  Speaker 10: cancer combined, but more than half of Americans are unaware
• 38:18
  Speaker 10: of this fact, according to a recent Harris Poll survey
• 38:21
  Speaker 10: conducted for the American Heart Association. However, the majority of
• 38:25
  Speaker 10: heart disease is preventable. New research has improved the prevention, diagnosis,
• 38:30
  Speaker 10: and treatment of heart disease and its risk factors. Efforts
• 38:33
  Speaker 10: led by the American Heart Association have reduced deaths from
• 38:36
  Speaker 10: heart disease by half over the past century and helped
• 38:39
  Speaker 10: people with heart disease live longer and more productive lives
• 38:42
  Speaker 10: while managing their condition and risk factors. To learn more

  Speaker 18: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 39:09
  Speaker 18: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
• 39:14
  Speaker 18: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 39:18
  Speaker 18: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 39:23
  Speaker 18: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 39:28
  Speaker 18: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 39:33
  Speaker 18: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 39:36
  Speaker 18: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 39:40
  Speaker 18: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 39:42
  Speaker 18: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric oxide

  Speaker 22: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
• 40:38
  Speaker 22: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
• 40:42
  Speaker 22: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
• 40:45
  Speaker 22: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 40:50
  Speaker 22: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 40:53
  Speaker 22: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 40:57
  Speaker 22: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
• 41:00
  Speaker 22: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

• 44:26
  Speaker 1: News and analysis, now without artificial colors. First thing today
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: So my favorite pieces of science fiction, and it was
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: done satirically.
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: Because science fiction has its tropes. But Douglas Adams wrote
• 44:59
  Speaker 5: in one of his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: that an alien landed on Earth and he needed to
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: conceal his ship. And his race had long since determined
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: that the energy necessary to make something properly invisible was
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: incalculably expensive. However, you could, for a relatively low price,
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: generate a field that made you believe that someone else
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: was taking care of it. So while you saw the
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: alien ship, you were immediately struck by that belief that
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: it was someone else's problem. Thus the name of the field,
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: it was somebody else's problem field. And that's what the
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: entire society has been bathed in for a while, is
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: everything is going to be someone else's problem. People need
• 46:01
  Speaker 5: health care, so who's going to pay for it? Well,
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: now the government clinics are being paid by the government.
• 46:08
  Speaker 5: It's money laundering. Story, Abigail Spanberger complaining about Virginia's budget.
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: And 300,000, air quotes here, Virginians losing their health care
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: coverage because of the one big beautiful bill act, which,
• 46:28
  Speaker 5: by the way, Abigail passed a long time ago. But
• 46:32
  Speaker 5: she's decided now to rest her angels upon our ears
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: and complain about these 300,000, air quotes again, Virginians. Because
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: the One Big Beautiful Bill Act restricts Medicaid payments to non-citizens. Huh, 300,000
• 46:51
  Speaker 5: non-citizens in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Governor. Huh, interesting that.
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: I wonder how many of them are registered to vote.
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: We just kicked 6,300 people off of the voter rolls.
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: And the big difference con in this is that it's
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: being done under some guise of compassion. And the funny
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: thing is, as I've made my case, that we are
• 47:24
  Speaker 5: not rolling at a breakneck pace towards a new civil war.
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: We are approaching a reconflagration of the last one. The
• 47:38
  Speaker 5: battle lines are the same The political parties are the
• 47:42
  Speaker 5: same because there were Republicans who didn't want Lincoln to
• 47:50
  Speaker 5: free the slaves just as much as there are Republicans
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: now who don't want the Save America Act passed. All
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: the Democrats are in defense of this new permanent underclass,
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: and it's even less expensive for their sponsors. I mean,
• 48:10
  Speaker 5: in the 19th century, a slave owner actually had to
• 48:13
  Speaker 5: provide food and shelter for what they believed to be
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: farm animals. And there were slave owners that truly believed
• 48:28
  Speaker 5: they were doing these humans a kindness. And you listen
• 48:34
  Speaker 5: to the do-gooders in the illegal immigration world. and you
• 48:40
  Speaker 5: hear the same rhetoric. We're just trying to help people, really,
• 48:46
  Speaker 5: by making them work subservient jobs for crap pay and
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: piling them in apartments that anyone who's actually a citizen
• 49:00
  Speaker 5: of the United States would never be allowed to live
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: in because you've got five people to a two- or
• 49:06
  Speaker 5: three-room apartment. Just cram them on in there. And they do.
• 49:16
  Speaker 5: Most municipalities nowadays have restrictions. on how many non-related persons
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: can live in a dwelling. Not so much when you're
• 49:29
  Speaker 5: dealing with non-citizens because the grants go to the address.
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: The grants go to the person. So it actually pays.
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: To get on board with the municipality and be listed
• 49:43
  Speaker 5: as a domicile for illegals because you can get four
• 49:47
  Speaker 5: or five people into an apartment and cash out their
• 49:51
  Speaker 5: rent stipend from the Biden Rent R Us programs. And
• 49:59
  Speaker 5: are we doing them a kindness? Is it actually helping people?
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: No.
• 50:08
  Speaker 5: No, it's not. They're not. coming here and learning new
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: things or experiencing all the benefits that the United States have,
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: what they're doing is they're creating a scenario where by
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: becoming a permanent underclass, they give rise to people like
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: Governor Mikey Sherrill or Governor Kathy Hochul, Governor Gavin Newsom, who,
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: you know, oh, J.B. Pritzker, who flounce around saying how
• 50:38
  Speaker 5: much they have to help people because they've enveloped themselves
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: in this scenario. A text message from Jerry said, Joe,
• 50:51
  Speaker 5: you never told us the Karen story. I, you know,
• 50:54
  Speaker 5: and my fault, we got talking about the, the build
• 50:58
  Speaker 5: out of our flagship station. We had to do this
• 51:01
  Speaker 5: move that, and I, and we got to the end
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: of that story and I wanted to get onto the
• 51:06
  Speaker 5: other topic, but, The punchline is the customer service representative
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: from our local electric utility was a very wonderful lady
• 51:15
  Speaker 5: named Karen. And at the end of our discussions, though
• 51:19
  Speaker 5: I was displeased with how long it would take the
• 51:22
  Speaker 5: electric utility to get to my project, I told her
• 51:26
  Speaker 5: she was a credit to her name. And she laughed
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: and laughed and laughed. And I said, I gather you
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: get that sometimes. And she said, She said, yeah, she
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: hears it all the time about being in customer service
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: with the name Karen. You know what? This is just
• 51:43
  Speaker 5: proof that not all stereotypes are born in realities there.
• 51:49
  Speaker 5: This email comes in. A friend of mine sent me this.
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: James O'Keefe is promising a new video release. And the.
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: What is going on? I updated my phone this morning,
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: and oh, gosh, the ads and the takeovers and the things.
• 52:15
  Speaker 5: No wonder the Department of Justice got hacked. And we
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: want to get into that when we come back after
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: the news. The human factor in these hacks. Stay tuned,
• 52:26

• 52:33

  Speaker 5: it's supposed to be actually later today.
• 52:51
  Speaker 10: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
• 52:53
  Speaker 10: compression of spinal nerves. According to Dr. Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
• 52:57
  Speaker 10: California-based chiropractor with more than 30 years of experience, this
• 53:01
  Speaker 10: compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury, or
• 53:05
  Speaker 10: simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
• 53:09
  Speaker 10: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
• 53:12
  Speaker 10: the neck and back, Dr. Fisher explains. His inventions, the
• 53:16
  Speaker 10: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device,
• 53:20
  Speaker 10: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
• 53:24
