  Speaker 2: Caleb Park. He's got some great topics of conversation. Also,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: our good buddy Joe Messina out in California, and Adam
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Morgan is going to be joining us from South Carolina.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: The President, by the way, he's going to be speaking
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: holding a rally for Darlene Graham. What a disaster that
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: is every time this woman opens her mouth, and she's
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a lovely lady, and I so so the criticism is
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: really about her politics and not her as a person.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: But every time this woman opens her mouth, it's a
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: reminder that she has is woefully, woefully unqualified to be
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: a United States senator. So Ralph Norman generating a lot
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of attention in the you know, in the polls, and
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: so we're going to talk to Adam Morgan about that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Get the lowdown on what exactly is going on in
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: South Carolina right now? Why is it the Democrats are unloading,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: are unloading all of this, uh, you know, all of
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: this vitriol. So what is going on here? Our telephone
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: number nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine to six,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: all right, and I think we've got in, ladies and gentlemen.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: My apologies. We had some sort of a text stamfoo.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of you are a texting me
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: right now, but I believe we are back up on
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: the air and all is good. So a couple of
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: things we shall start with. Many of you love hamburgers,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Many of you love beef. The price of beef is
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: going up quite a bit, and no doubt about that.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I think over what six dollars for a pounds a
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: ground beef these days at the supermarket, which is up
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: considerably from where it was back during the previous administration.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: We just call it like it is, ladies and gentlemen.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: We're not making these numbers up, but beef prices are
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: indeed higher. So President Trump today just announced a ninety
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: day waiver on tariffs for foreign beef, and the President
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: is going to allow up to three hundred thousand pounds
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: of ground beef to be imported into the United States
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: from other countries. And that is a that's an interesting
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: thing here. The President also announcing that the beef that
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: is imported, so the foreign beef will be sold at
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: twenty five percent below current market prices. And the point
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: of that is to lower prices at the grocery store.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: But it seems to me that is undercutting and undermining
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: American cattle ranchers. And I live about you, but I've
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: got a problem eating foreign beef. If I want a hamburger,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I want to make sure that that hamburger is coming
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: from a cow that was from the United States. Hic. So, anyway,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the President says that, look, and I think what's happening
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: is the White House is now understanding that the American
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: people are in a difficult fix. They're very frustrated over
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: the prices of things at the grocery stores and the
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: gas pumps, and that is not going to ease up
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: anytime soon. And so the President is making this move here.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: And I'm curious to hear from any of you farmers
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: out there if this is going to concern you that
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: the President is going to allow foreigners to sell their
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: beef on American soil at twenty five percent below current
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: market prices. Now, the President this is according to News Nation.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: The President did not say where the imported beef would
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: come from. Americans have seen beef's prices surge to record
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: highs this year, with the nation's cattle herd the smallest
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: it's been in more than seventy five years. A pound
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: of one hundred percent ground beef costing shoppers, are you
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: ready for this? Six dollars and eighty nine cents in July,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: just below April's all time high, from about five dollars
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: and fifty five cents. That's what it was when President
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Trump began his second term in office. Now the administration
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: is blaming the Biden administration for the high gat for
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: the high beef prices. Over the past five years, the
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: average price for a pound of ground beef has surged
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: nearly sixty percent. Ranchers are warning that rebuilding the herd
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: will take time, and the President is now turning to
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: tariff relief in an effort to lower prices more quickly.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: I want to go to the phone lines here nine
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six, Arnie
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and Georgia. Now, Arnie, I understand are you a cattle farmer?
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: That is correct. I thought we do before, Actually, while
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: I was feeding my cows.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Arnie, We're honored to have you with us, and we
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: thank you for the hard work. I can't even imagine
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: what kind of work you guys put in on an
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: average day. What's your take here on the President's big
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: announcement today.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: I think President Trump really is getting the wrong advice
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: from his advisors. I realized, yes, the price of beef
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: has gone up, but if you look at the price
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: that everything else is going up correspondingly, there's not a
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: lot of difference and US producers. I'm at the producer
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: in and we are at the lower end of everything
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: because you have your producers, then you have your fee
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: lots and stockyards, then you have the processing plants. Well,
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: there are only four companies in this country that actually operate.
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: They operate eighty percent of the beef processing and they're
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: the ones that have them notly on it.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Ernie, let me ask you a question here, and I've
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: got zerol. First of all, I understand that there just
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: are not as many cattle as there have been in
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: previous years. Why is that?
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: Several reasons, One depleting farmland. Two there well, there's so
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: many people that are getting out of it.
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of it.
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: The farmers are older generation, and I mean, I'm I'm
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: not fearing the older or the younger, but I'm still
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: staying in it. But as the parents die off from
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: all this land, right after this happens so many cases,
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: and I've seen it happen here where I'm at. Somebody
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: real estate speculator comes in with a check with more
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: zeros than the kids they're seeing in their entire life,
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: and of course they're ready to sell it off to
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: get that big check, and they're gone, so that farmland
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: will be gone. Uh, there have been several there have
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: been severe droughts out in the Midwest and a lot
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: of farmers a couple of years back sell the most
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: of the herds off just because they had there were
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: no way to feed them because of the drought, and
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: it takes time to build a herd up. But there
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: are many different facts.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: So, Ernie, I want to read to you. This is
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: from the National Cattleman's Beef Association, and they're they're upset
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: about all of this. They say that flooding the market
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: with government subsidized below market beef is not the way
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: to rebuild the American cattle herd. Do you agree with
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: that assessment?
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: Oh? Absolutely, the something that the cattlemen are not saying. Okay,
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: one thing, to build up the herd, you would have
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: to have replacement cattle. Well, the replacement cattle. Now for
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: a good in my area, for a good replacement cow,
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: they want to call a first time cow, she's had
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: her first caste. You're pretty much over the birken hump
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: for a decent one. You may be looking, you know,
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: twenty five hundred to four thousand dollars to wow, how
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: good she is.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Well, it seems to me that if you're flooding the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: market with this, I see no difference in this than
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Zorn Mandami opening up a grocery store and charging what
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: thirty five percent less for his products. I mean, if
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you're going to allow uh, these foreign these foreign cattle
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: farmers to sell their product at a discount, you know
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: people are going to go are going to go with
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: the discount.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: That's exactly right. And it's something that most people don't know.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: I had said, according to one of my congressmen of
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: meeting Ripe the year or two ago, he was unaware
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: of this. But do you realize that even with live cattle,
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: all it has to be in this country for thirty
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: days and said in his country for thirty days. It
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: doesn't matter where it comes from. It can legally be
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: labeled as Usdad.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh wow, Yeah, I've got a big problem, a
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: big problem with that, Arnie. Thank you for the update there.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: And again this is uh, this is a head scratcher,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. But the White House announcing this, and
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: it looks like you American cattle farmers are getting screwed. Sorry,

  Speaker 2: them with these exercise ropes and then she threw herself

  Speaker 2: off of the second floor of the family home there.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: And I think she's paralyzed now. Anyway, Her attorneys are
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: claiming that she had some sort of postpartum depression or
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: whatever and that let her to kill the children. And
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: she said she heard voices, and the voices, you know,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: the voices told her to kill the kids. The husband,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: by the way, has now divorced her, So there you
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: have it. Anyway, all of these women, these woke white
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: women wearing pink T shirts, are outside and the crowds
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: keep growing. Cut number thirty one.
• 13:50
  Speaker 8: One of my sister in laws.

  Speaker 9: could be me.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: So just here to suppurse. We are hearing her.
• 13:56
  Speaker 10: We see that she tried everything, and I really do
• 14:00
  Speaker 10: believe that she went into a state coach is.
• 14:03
  Speaker 8: You feel like the system, Faulder, She was making for
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: help and no one was there.
• 14:08
  Speaker 9: I don't know if else being here.
• 14:09
  Speaker 8: Will make her feel any better home, I mean she's
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: living at hell right now.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Oh and now they're blaming the husband. They're saying the
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: husband should have done more to take that she was
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: just overwhelmed with being a mom and the husband should
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: have stepped in and should have offered some sort of assistance.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: But now we know the husband actually worked from home
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: so that he could be there with the wife. So anyway,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: is she just slapped crazy nuts or what. But they're
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: hoping that they're going to be able to get her
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: off and basically no jail time. They want to send
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: this woman to some sort of a medical treatment facility
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: and then maybe back out on the streets. Who knows.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: This is just crazy, crazy stuff, unbelievable, but there you go,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. You know, we had Jonathan conn on
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: the show yesterday. He's working on a brand new book
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: coming out in September, and he says, the reality is
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: that there is a demonic force in America and you
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: can't help but wonder that when you hear these kinds
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: of stories of a mother who kills her children, and
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: instead of being condemned, this woman is being celebrated like
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: she's some sort of a hero for the Women's lib
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: movement never seen anything like this. Got an update from Dearborn,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Michigan to share with you. This is a Christian pastor
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: who addressed the city council. You know, Dearborn Michigan all
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Muslim and the city council members are trying to push
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Sharia law onto the citizens of Dearborn, which you are
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: not allowed to do. But that doesn't seem to be
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: stopping these guys anyway. I want you to listen to
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: this Christian pastor as he addressed city council members the
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: other day.
• 15:52
  Speaker 11: You are not up under American law. You are up
• 15:56
  Speaker 11: under surreal law. That is the reason why you have
• 16:00
  Speaker 11: made nor rest you laugh. You are three generations of
• 16:05
  Speaker 11: racism in this very city.
• 16:07
  Speaker 12: You know it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 11: You have seen what has happened in this city. And
• 16:12
  Speaker 11: it is my people that it funded you. It's my
• 16:16
  Speaker 11: people that made sure that you have what you have.
• 16:19
  Speaker 11: And you spit on us, you degrade us. But you're
• 16:22
  Speaker 11: only one percent of this nation. We are not a
• 16:28
  Speaker 11: nation of Muslims. We are a nation of Christians. We
• 16:32
  Speaker 11: are one nation under God, indivisible, the God of the Bible.
• 16:38
  Speaker 12: The God of the Lord Jesus Christ. That's the God
• 16:43
  Speaker 12: in whom we serve. I want you to prove to
• 16:45
  Speaker 12: me we're not up under sharia law.
• 16:48
  Speaker 11: Will you denounced counselmen or Ralli? Will you denounce Sharia law?
• 16:54
  Speaker 11: Will you denounce Sharia law?
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: Will know you won't?
• 16:58
  Speaker 11: Will you denounce Sharia law? Abraham, you went to Hillsdale.
• 17:02
  Speaker 11: Will use renown Sharia law? Will you renout Sharia law?
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: America?
• 17:08
  Speaker 9: We have lost this city.
• 17:10
  Speaker 11: This is a city that is no longer up under
• 17:12
  Speaker 11: America laws.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: We are up under Sharia law anymore.
• 17:17
  Speaker 11: Enough is enough?
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Wow? The preacher was fired up there and rightfully so.
• 17:28
  Speaker 13: Uh.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: The fact of the matter is you cannot have sharia
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: law in the United States of America. By the way,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: that guy, his name is Lorenzo Sewell, he is a
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: pastor there in Dearborn, and he said he's had enough.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: He's just that he has had enough of the Islamist
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: trying to impose their political ideology. And we're talking about
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: political Islam here, trying to impose their political ideology on
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: the rest of Dearborn, Michigan. I do not blame them,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: the pastor for being frustrated. So good for you, Good
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: for you, pastor. And I'm surprised the Muslims didn't rise
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: up and do anything. But again they control everything. The
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Muslims control everything in Dearborn, Michigan. And look that's going
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: to continue to happen. We saw I think happening in Paterson,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: New Jersey as well, completely controlled by the Islamist. Those
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: numbers are only going to grow. You know, we had
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: congressmen what Keith cell phone from Texas and he's very
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: concerned about what's happening to you people down in Texas
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: as the Islamists continue to rise up and take over
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: places like McKenny, Texas for example. All right, gotta take

• 20:14
  Speaker 14: Well, let's talk about it real quick.
• 20:17
  Speaker 15: Right out of the gate.
• 20:18
  Speaker 14: This morning, we've got an announcement from the administration about
• 20:23
  Speaker 14: you know, cattle beef prices. They're going to import a
• 20:28
  Speaker 14: bunch more box beef ground beef scrap cuts that's what
• 20:33
  Speaker 14: I call them, and hopefully bring down the price of
• 20:37
  Speaker 14: ground beef in the store for y'all. We've seen the
• 20:42
  Speaker 14: market crash for live cattle, live cattle that people like
• 20:49
  Speaker 14: myself grow and take to the to the you know
• 20:52
  Speaker 14: processing plants or go down through the system. That's dropped
• 20:58
  Speaker 14: forty cents a pound already is from that plant closure.
• 21:02
  Speaker 14: Now this morning, the markets are crashing. But will your
• 21:08
  Speaker 14: price change? So far we have not seen that. We
• 21:12
  Speaker 14: have not seen that. And at what expense to you.
• 21:17
  Speaker 14: I'll tell you what expense to you. This is the
• 21:20
  Speaker 14: opposite of what needs to happen. We're not going to
• 21:23
  Speaker 14: retain heifer's and build a herd when we can have,
• 21:28
  Speaker 14: you know, the stroke of a pin. Drop our price
• 21:32
  Speaker 14: to where we don't make a profit anymore. And honestly,
• 21:36
  Speaker 14: that's where we stand. We've finally begun to make a profit,
• 21:40
  Speaker 14: and all hell breaks loose. People can't handle it, you know,
• 21:44
  Speaker 14: I guess because because beef is high in the store.
• 21:47
  Speaker 14: I get it. Beef is high in the store. Look
• 21:51
  Speaker 14: at what else is high in the store. Look at
• 21:54
  Speaker 14: what's high for the rancher and the producer, fuel, land, labor,
• 21:59
  Speaker 14: all of it. You know, you got a nine dollars latte,
• 22:04
  Speaker 14: but seven eight nine dollars a pound for ground beef.
• 22:08
  Speaker 14: It's too much right now, you're going to get stuck.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: There you go, ladies and gentlemen. One of the angry
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: farmers there, and he's pretty fired up, and rightfully so.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: As President Trump announced he is going to lift the
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: tariffs on farig and beef, and he's going to allow
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: those foreign cattle ranchers to sell their product at stores
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: at a great discount that is not afforded to other
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: American ranchers. Let's go to the phones here. Nine oh
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: one two six zero five nine two six Alice listening
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: to us on KWAM in Arkansas. Hi, Alice, what's on
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: your mind today?
• 22:50
  Speaker 11: Oh?
• 22:51
  Speaker 16: Hello, mister Starne, and thank you, thank you for taking
• 22:55
  Speaker 16: my call. Yes, I want to briefly talk about the
• 22:59
  Speaker 16: beef that you weigh said. I understand China has brought.
• 23:03
  Speaker 8: Up an awful lot of.
• 23:04
  Speaker 16: Farm land and so therefore that's also part of this
• 23:11
  Speaker 16: big problem. But what I really want to talk about
• 23:14
  Speaker 16: is the woman who killed her children. The blame game
• 23:19
  Speaker 16: didn't work in the Book of Genesis, and it won't
• 23:23
  Speaker 16: work now today either. Number One, my mother used to
• 23:29
  Speaker 16: be the head nurse in the old b department and
• 23:34
  Speaker 16: they used to keep the mothers can maybe twelve days,
• 23:39
  Speaker 16: and they would say, has she had her cry yet yet?
• 23:44
  Speaker 16: They're a post part of blues. But when they kept
• 23:47
  Speaker 16: them in the hospital. There were people there to help them,
• 23:51
  Speaker 16: and today that's not happening, and that's very sad. But
• 23:56
  Speaker 16: when somebody says they her voices, lets that's a sweet,
• 24:01
  Speaker 16: special still voice from my favor Jesus Christ. It is
• 24:06
  Speaker 16: of the devil and they need to get help. And
• 24:09
  Speaker 16: another thing I want to say is whom we submit
• 24:13
  Speaker 16: ourselves to be our master, that will be He will
• 24:17
  Speaker 16: be our master. I'm glad I am the capital h
• 24:21
  Speaker 16: e Master, Jesus Christ. I do believe jan is coming
• 24:26
  Speaker 16: to America, and my heart hurts really much.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Well I hear that in your voice, Alice, and it's
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: just shocking to see. Not I mean, the crime in
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: and of itself is beyond horrifying, but the reaction from
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: the American people that are embracing this woman as if
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: she is somehow the victim and that she should not
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: be punished for what she did, that is just off
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: the charts insane to me. Alice. Thank you for calling
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: in and thank you for listening to the program. Nine
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six are number.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: All right, Uh got to play this audio. There is
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: a sportswriter out of the Seattle Times. His name is
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: Matt Calkins, and he wrote a column. So again this guy.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: His job at the Seattle Times is to have an
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: opinion and to write about that opinion. It's I know
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: it's a unique concept, but that's what the guy does.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Matt Calkins is his name. Well, it turns out he
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: has now resigned because the newspaper refused to publish a
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: column that he wrote supporting young ladies who believe it's
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: wrong for men to be in their on their athletic
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: teams got thirty three plays.
• 25:49
  Speaker 17: Well, can you give us more details on what you know,
• 25:52
  Speaker 17: what your column is about and why you think your
• 25:54
  Speaker 17: editors declined to publish this one and others.
• 25:57
  Speaker 18: Sure.
• 25:58
  Speaker 17: Obviously went out to a rally outside of Climate Pledgerina
• 26:01
  Speaker 17: where the Seattle Storm play and they had a game
• 26:03
  Speaker 17: against the Fever. And I talked to a couple of
• 26:05
  Speaker 17: girls who were opposed to biological mails competing against.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Them in sports.
• 26:12
  Speaker 17: One had lost to biological mail in a race when
• 26:16
  Speaker 17: she was in eighth grade. Another refused to play a
• 26:19
  Speaker 17: game against a biological mail a basketball game and was
• 26:23
  Speaker 17: taunted by her fellow students relentlessly and I kind of
• 26:27
  Speaker 17: wanted to get their stories in there, and so I
• 26:30
  Speaker 17: wrote this column. I rended or I sent it to
• 26:33
  Speaker 17: my editors Friday morning. They said, well, it's not ready
• 26:37
  Speaker 17: for Sunday's paper yet, but we'll take a look. Then
• 26:40
  Speaker 17: on Monday, uh, they said, you know, we're we're gonna
• 26:44
  Speaker 17: take this up to the top two editors in the
• 26:46
  Speaker 17: newsroom by Wednesday. And I'm kind of going, this is
• 26:48
  Speaker 17: this is becoming like an.
• 26:49
  Speaker 9: Event that they're.
• 26:51
  Speaker 13: Taking this long.
• 26:52
  Speaker 17: And then on Thursday I got the call saying we're
• 26:55
  Speaker 17: not going to run it. And basically the premise of
• 26:57
  Speaker 17: my column was you can read the lines and probably
• 27:00
  Speaker 17: see where I stand, but these these two girls were
• 27:03
  Speaker 17: basically saying, this isn't an anti trans movement, this is
• 27:06
  Speaker 17: just a pro girls, pro women's movement. And that was
• 27:08
  Speaker 17: pretty much the premise, like, let's stop hurling these throwing
• 27:11
  Speaker 17: these labels around and calling people big. It's in trans philps,
• 27:14
  Speaker 17: so we can have an honest conversation about a delicate topic.
• 27:17
  Speaker 17: And Sale Times just didn't want to run it. It's
• 27:21
  Speaker 17: not the first time that had kind of gone against
• 27:23
  Speaker 17: the grain and gotten a lot of pushback, and so
• 27:26
  Speaker 17: I resigned on the spot.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't an emotional decision.
• 27:30
  Speaker 17: It kind of sounds like a rage quit move if
• 27:33
  Speaker 17: I just was talking to a random person. But it's
• 27:34
  Speaker 17: something that I've been thinking about for a while, just
• 27:36
  Speaker 17: because I felt like I couldn't quite do my job
• 27:39
  Speaker 17: as a sports columnist if I was restricted on a
• 27:41
  Speaker 17: lot of these topics.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: You know, what's interesting is that there is an organization
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: of gay and lesbian and transgender journalist and they are
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: a very powerful group. As a matter of fact, they
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: have a partnership with Fox News Channel. If you want
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: to know why Fox has gone squarely, it's because they've
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: hired so many LGBT QI A plus journalist. That's the
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: reason why overwhelming number of the people employed by Fox
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: are not anywhere near conservative, and that should be I
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: don't know, an eye opening thing I suppose for folks,
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: but just so you know, that's what's going on there.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: And so anyway, these gay journalists or the LGBT journalists
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: are very powerful and they will silence anybody who objects
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: to their agenda, especially in the newsrooms. So the best
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: thing that could have happened to this guy is for him. Honestly,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: he should have you know, he should have waited and
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: let him fire him so we could get unemployment. But
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: I get it, I get it. I remember in my
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: final days at Fox, it was insane. They were doing
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: crazy things, even at Fox News Channel celebrating. They had
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: these huge pride celebrations, all the rainbow color, and you
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: were expected to participate, which I did not do and
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I had no intention of doing. But man, the pressure
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: even at Fox to bow down to these LGBT journalist
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: is just off the charts, off the charts. I'll never forget.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: There was a There was a fella at Fox. He
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: was not exactly a looker, you know, I mean, I mean,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: it is what it is. You know, Guys are guys.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: And this guy decided he wanted to become a woman,
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: so he put on a dress and I guess that
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: made him a woman. And one of the staffers, I'll
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: never forget this, one of the staffers made a big
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: deal about it. One of the female staffers made a
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: huge deal about this in the in the newsroom and
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: actually escorted this man for the very first time into
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: the ladies room. No, no, it was not, No, it was not.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: PMS now Nope, Dylan was not CNN. No, it was
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Fox News Channel Fox. I'm just telling you. Oh, by
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: the way, the log Cabin Republicans. Are you familiar with
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: this group, the log Cabin of Republicans. No, they don't
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: live in log cabins. No, they're Look, that's understandable. I
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: get that. Anyway, they represent gay conservatives. And if you
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: haven't been to Washington, DC, you're not going to underappreciate
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: or understand what I'm about to say. But most of
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: the Republican parties gay in Washington. I just want to
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: throw that at Deyla. Why are you laughing? Because I
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: know that it's true. But look, as long as they
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: standing up for you know, the conservative value is what
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: do I care? Okay, It's your life, Live your life.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: So anyway, they got a group called the log Cabin Republicans,
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: and they have officially dropped the T from their from
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: their group, so they're no longer they no longer represent
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: the LGBT. They only represent the lgs and the b's
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: everybody else. You're on your own and they're catching a
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: holy you know what for it. Anyway, Log Cabin Republicans
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: the nation's largest group representing gay conservatives. By the way,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: this is why there's so many single women in DC.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: And you hear this complain a lot, by the way,
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: and all these lovely, beautiful young ladies and they're in Washington,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: and you know, they want to marry somebody so they
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: can be the first lady of you know whatever. And
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: the constant complaint is they can't find any straight guys
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: in Washington. No, I don't know what. Maybe there's something
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: of the water. I don't know, but it is what
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: it is. I know I'm gonna sho I know I'm
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: probably shocking people out there. Can you imagine your kid
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: comes back from his internship in Washington? Hi, mom, I'm
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: a Republican. Oh god? Anyway, Ross Hemminger. Hemminger is the
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: group president. Log Cabin Republicans wrote the organization's board of
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: directors voted a narrow its national advocacy focus to the L,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: the G, and the B on issues relating to sexual
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: orientation and conservative values. The group will now focus on lesbian, gay,
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: and buying sexual advocacy, dropping the T from the widely
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: used acronym LGBT. Well, what about the Q and the plus?
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: You know, that's all part of it. It's like the
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: alphabet activist here, mister Hemminger says, moving forward, we are
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: an LGB advocacy group, as our founders in vision and
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: as our Moral Center calls us to b. So there
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: you go. So the transgender crowd is even too crazy
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: for the log cabin of Republicans. I think that's the
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: that's the story there. Nine oh one two six zero

  Speaker 4: You have to get us more merch by the way too.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: We do have like several little beaver things in here,
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: but we need more. I think, okay, let's sign.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: I'll do my best. I'll try to get I'll try
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: to get you some some beaver merch.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: Steel the mascot.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: If you can steal the mascot, I'll do it. I can't. Well,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: do we have a toe line?
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: So what behind us Sunday First Baptist Church, Dallas, Texas
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: and looking forward to meeting so many of our great
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: Texas listeners and friends. We'd love for you to be
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: there worship with us. After the service, we'll be signing
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: copies of the Golden Age. You'll be able to purchase
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: a copy there. Barnes and Noble is going to be
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: on hand, and we appreciate them giving up their Sunday
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: morning uh, to help sell the books. So again, come
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: on out. You're gonna have a great time. The music
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: there is phenomenal, the preaching is off the charts. And
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: then you know, I'm going to be hanging out, so
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: I get a chance to visit with you as well.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: A lot of people say, do you do the pictures
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: to Absolutely. I stay there and I sign every single book,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: and we stay there till you know there's nobody else left.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: So that's the way we do things. And then right
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: back to right back to Memphis Sunday afternoon, going to
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: be a busy weekend, all right. Coming up in the
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: next hour, we're going to be talking to Adam Morgan
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: about what's happening in South Carolina right now. Look, there's
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: no way around it. The establishment Republicans want Darlene Graham
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: to be the nominee. That's it. And President Trump has
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: been given some advice. I don't know if the President's
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: doing this out of loyalty to Lindsey or what, but
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: the President has endorsed Darlene Graham and he's going to
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: be holding a big rally for her in Myrtle Beach,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: South Carolina today. And I will just say this Ralph
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: Norman's the guy if you want to elect. If you
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: want to elect a senator who's going to be a
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: conservative and who's authentic and has a proven track record,
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: than Ralph Norman's your guy. And it just really it's
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: a little frustrating to see the Trump administration coming out
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: here and once again endorsing someone who clearly is not
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: qualified for the job and doesn't have the skill set necessary.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: And that is not a slam at Darlene Graham, it's
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: just the reality of this situation. And we saw all
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: of that take place at that debate. But even more disturbing,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: I think was the fact you had a Fox News
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Channel Hannity out there propping her up. And that's what
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: really bothers me about all of this. So we're going
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: to get into that with Adam Morgan. We're going to
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: be taking your calls as well. This is going to
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: be a constant struggle as we move well beyond the
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: midterm elections, as the establishment Republicans try and reclaim control
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: of the Republican Party. And that's what concerns me about
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: this particular race. Six years. We're talking about six years,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: so you're either gonna be get stuck with Darlene Graham,
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: who may or may not be a conservative, or Ralph Norman,
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: who is in fact a conservative. All Right, I gotta
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: take a break here, Folks, head over to the website
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: Todd Sterns dot com. We have some great stories, including
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: one about Detroit. That's right, they're paying kids one hundred
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: bucks a week to go to school. You gotta read
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: the story. Todd Sterns dot.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Com Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: It's common sense conservative commentary from Todd start.
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: Amaritan.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: All right, hello, everybody, welcome to the Top Stars radio show.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Great to have you with us. Hour or two of
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: the big show underway, and we have been trying to
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: figure out what exactly is going on in the state
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: of South Carolina. This debate from earlier in the week. Wow,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: what a disaster you had, Darlene. You had Darlene Graham
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: out there, And first of all, I want to go
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: back and if we could, I just want to play
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: what she had to say regarding Taiwan and nash and
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Foreign affairs cut number twenty two.
• 39:47
  Speaker 19: Please actional security questions, Well, Senator, are Taiwan and the
• 39:52
  Speaker 19: South China Sea national security issues for the United States.
• 39:56
  Speaker 19: If so, why, I'm sorry, do you repeat the quai
• 40:01
  Speaker 19: are Taiwan and the South China Sea national security issues
• 40:04
  Speaker 19: for the United States? And if so, why or how?
• 40:09
  Speaker 20: I'm just going to be honest to you. I'm not
• 40:11
  Speaker 20: on national security that I'm not that informed on national security.
• 40:15
  Speaker 20: So but I do support the military.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: All right, We're good, We're good. We got we got
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: the gist of it there, so what happens well, of course,
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Darling Graham goes on Fox News Channel. Hannity brings her
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: on to try to say face cut number twenty eight.
• 40:33
  Speaker 10: Now, you know, and to be fair, if people want
• 40:37
  Speaker 10: to judge you on on the South China Sea and Taiwan, okay,
• 40:42
  Speaker 10: I think that's fair. But I bet based on all
• 40:45
  Speaker 10: your time with your brother that you know probably everything
• 40:48
  Speaker 10: about the Middle East because he went on one trip
• 40:50
  Speaker 10: after another to every country in the Middle East. And
• 40:53
  Speaker 10: I know you know a lot about Europe and the
• 40:55
  Speaker 10: Ukraine Russia situation because he went to Ukraine more than
• 40:58
  Speaker 10: any other senator. And you even said in our interview
• 41:02
  Speaker 10: that you are going to focus more on domestic issues
• 41:04
  Speaker 10: than your brother.
• 41:05
  Speaker 13: Did.
• 41:05
  Speaker 9: I mean you were very clear.
• 41:07
  Speaker 20: Absolutely. I know national security is important. We have a
• 41:10
  Speaker 20: wonderful commander in chief. I know that we need to
• 41:13
  Speaker 20: stand with the Israel and the issues in Iran are serious.
• 41:17
  Speaker 20: I understand all that. But again, I'm focused on the
• 41:20
  Speaker 20: issues for every day people in South Carolina that are
• 41:23
  Speaker 20: struggling to make ends meet. So that's where I really
• 41:26
  Speaker 20: want to focus. Another concern from the debate I have
• 41:30
  Speaker 20: last night is my opponent said he was going to
• 41:32
  Speaker 20: cut social security. That's very concerning to me. He also
• 41:37
  Speaker 20: talked about creating a pathway for illegal immigrants, so that's
• 41:42
  Speaker 20: another concern I have.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: All Right, I want to go right away to the
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Patriot Mobile news maker line, say look to our good friend,
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: former state lawmaker there in South Carolina, Adam Morgan, president
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: of Majesty Music, Adam Good to have you with us.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Look it went from bad doors. Yesterday she was doing
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: an interview and one of her handlers told the reporter,
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: no hard questions. What is going on here?
• 42:11
  Speaker 21: Well, I mean, hey, I've run promise before. If that's
• 42:14
  Speaker 21: all you gotta do to just you know, smooth sale
• 42:16
  Speaker 21: right in there, not answer any tough questions. That sounds
• 42:20
  Speaker 21: pretty cushy. What like, you're right, well, what are we doing?
• 42:23
  Speaker 21: We have somebody who is in the US Senate. She's
• 42:25
  Speaker 21: not even just a candidate, she is the current senator
• 42:29
  Speaker 21: from the state of South Carolina who said that, you know,
• 42:32
  Speaker 21: national security, that's not our thing and she's not informed
• 42:35
  Speaker 21: on it. Well, what have you been doing in the office?
• 42:37
  Speaker 21: That's really terrifying. And as far as what do I
• 42:40
  Speaker 21: think is going to happen and how this is going
• 42:42
  Speaker 21: to shake out, I don't know if you saw Mark Sandford,
• 42:44
  Speaker 21: the former governor of South Carolina and one of the
• 42:47
  Speaker 21: candidates who just ran in the primary, what less than
• 42:50
  Speaker 21: two weeks ago. He came in forth, he got like
• 42:52
  Speaker 21: fifty thousand votes. He just endorsed Ralph Norman this morning.
• 42:56
  Speaker 21: So I think as you're looking at how this is
• 42:58
  Speaker 21: going to shake out, Norman's up in the polls. Darlene's
• 43:02
  Speaker 21: had this incredibly embarrassing gaff, let's be honest, probably one
• 43:05
  Speaker 21: of the worst ascid in American political history. They'll be
• 43:07
  Speaker 21: playing that clip for years. And now with Sanford's endorsement
• 43:11
  Speaker 21: of Norman, I think Norman is going to have a
• 43:13
  Speaker 21: very strong showing. I mean, the Graham camp is putting
• 43:16
  Speaker 21: all their hopes in President Trump's endorsement. And I just
• 43:20
  Speaker 21: think we just saw this played out in the governor's race.
• 43:22
  Speaker 21: President Trump endorsed Pamela A.
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: Vett.
• 43:25
  Speaker 21: I'm not sure who is telling him and advising him
• 43:28
  Speaker 21: to endorse these candidates, these establishment candidates who have done
• 43:31
  Speaker 21: nothing and are not qualified for these offices. But I
• 43:34
  Speaker 21: think in that race, you saw people didn't buy it,
• 43:36
  Speaker 21: and he ended up having to issue a dual endorsement
• 43:39
  Speaker 21: because the polling for Pamela Vett was so bad they
• 43:42
  Speaker 21: knew she was going to lose. I think you're looking
• 43:44
  Speaker 21: at the same setup.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Here, Adam. We had an unscientific survey on my ex
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: page this Well over one thousand people took part in
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: the survey. Who won the South Carolina GOP senate debate?
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: Sixty six percent said Ralph Norman won it, twenty three
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: percent said Darlene Graham, one and ten percent said Darlene
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: Graham's yellow notepad actually won the debate. I have never
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: seen someone rely on on crib notes like that before,
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: and even then she still was not able to deliver
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: comprehensive answers to some pretty pretty simple basic questions.
• 44:24
  Speaker 21: Yeah, it's terrifying, and that that's the main criticism of
• 44:28
  Speaker 21: her is that she's not qualified for this position. And
• 44:31
  Speaker 21: what she did is she proved to everybody she is
• 44:33
  Speaker 21: absolutely not qualified. She's been a government bureaucrat for her
• 44:37
  Speaker 21: entire professional life, which that's a red flag right there.
• 44:41
  Speaker 21: She pushed DEI in the departments and celebrated it in
• 44:44
  Speaker 21: the department she worked in and managed. She requested budget
• 44:47
  Speaker 21: increases every single year when she operated those bureaucracies. And
• 44:52
  Speaker 21: now she wants to be this conservative, but you're not
• 44:55
  Speaker 21: a fiscal conservative. And then she said, well, I'm a
• 44:57
  Speaker 21: social conservative. But then I don't know if you saw
• 44:59
  Speaker 21: that clip. Somebody just asked her what her position on
• 45:01
  Speaker 21: life was and whether she believed life began at conception
• 45:04
  Speaker 21: and supported protecting that. She couldn't even answer that question.
• 45:07
  Speaker 21: She said she had to.
• 45:08
  Speaker 15: Think about it.
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 45:09
  Speaker 15: No, you're runing for one.
• 45:10
  Speaker 21: Of the most high profile offices in the world, that
• 45:14
  Speaker 21: you are, in fact, the most powerful political body elected
• 45:17
  Speaker 21: body in the entire planet. I think you should have
• 45:19
  Speaker 21: basic answers on fundamental issues like life and national security.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: So President Trump is going to be doing a big
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: rally in South Carolina today. I don't know who's giving
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: him the guidance here, who is giving him all of
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: this information on the endorsements. Ralph Norman has been nothing
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: but loyal. He has been a solid, dependable voice on
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: the conservative side of issues. Even when the president and
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: his administration were not on the conservative side of the issue,
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: Ralph Norman stood his ground. I'm just I'm not sure
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: who they're listening to. What's your take on what President
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Trump has done here?
• 45:58
  Speaker 21: I think a lot of it's a loyalty to Lindsey Graham.
• 46:01
  Speaker 21: You know, Lindsay had been a very hostile opponent of
• 46:03
  Speaker 21: the president, much more hostile than Ralph Norman's ever been.
• 46:06
  Speaker 21: Ralph Norman has never even criticized the president. I don't
• 46:08
  Speaker 21: know if you've seen that. He's never actually said anything
• 46:11
  Speaker 21: negative about the president. He just doesn't like that. He's
• 46:14
  Speaker 21: held up some bills to make them more conservative. You
• 46:16
  Speaker 21: remember the one big beautiful bill. Norman's the one that
• 46:19
  Speaker 21: held it up and got rid of all the Green
• 46:21
  Speaker 21: New Deal subsidies that Biden had in there and forced
• 46:24
  Speaker 21: medical work requirements for Medicare. Ralph Norman is the original
• 46:29
  Speaker 21: author of the Save Act. He's the one who filed
• 46:31
  Speaker 21: the bill in twenty twenty and stood with the frontline
• 46:34
  Speaker 21: doctors during the whole COVID debacles. I mean, this is
• 46:36
  Speaker 21: one of the strongest conservative voices. He's endorsed by Turning
• 46:40
  Speaker 21: Point USA and the Freedom Caucus. He has the best
• 46:44
  Speaker 21: Club for Growth score in Congress. I mean, look, you
• 46:46
  Speaker 21: name it. He's proven that he's the strongest conservative voice.
• 46:50
  Speaker 21: And I think that you have a loyalty to Graham
• 46:53
  Speaker 21: from the Trump camp and I think that's who's advising
• 46:56
  Speaker 21: him a pushing it. And same thing with Hannity. You know,
• 46:58
  Speaker 21: that was an embarrassing interview for Sean Hannity to see
• 47:01
  Speaker 21: that level of just bias and he's softballing her questions
• 47:06
  Speaker 21: and giving her cushy giving her answers actually like kind
• 47:10
  Speaker 21: of you know, holding her hand through the interview, and
• 47:12
  Speaker 21: her claims there were laughable. What Ralph Norman said is
• 47:15
  Speaker 21: he wants to cut the waste, fraud, and abuse that
• 47:18
  Speaker 21: the Nose Commission found in Social Security. Those are the
• 47:20
  Speaker 21: cuts he wants to Social Security so that the program
• 47:23
  Speaker 21: is solvent and people continuing get the benefits that are
• 47:26
  Speaker 21: due to them. So it's laughable. Is Darlene now saying
• 47:29
  Speaker 21: she actually supports fraud. I mean, is that where we are.
• 47:32
  Speaker 21: So I think people that are informed on this election
• 47:35
  Speaker 21: are going to vote Norman, that I want a conservative,
• 47:39
  Speaker 21: competent person. The question comes down to geography, and that's
• 47:43
  Speaker 21: why the president is going to Myrtle Beach because if
• 47:45
  Speaker 21: you look at a map of South Carolina, the upstate
• 47:47
  Speaker 21: is the largest share of conservative voters. That area is
• 47:50
  Speaker 21: going to go heavy Norman. It already went Norman in
• 47:52
  Speaker 21: the previous race. So that really comes down to the
• 47:55
  Speaker 21: midlands and the low country. Midlands is going to go Darlene.
• 47:58
  Speaker 21: So that means all this rides on what happens in
• 48:00
  Speaker 21: low country, where Norman has historically not performed as well.
• 48:03
  Speaker 21: Some people say it's just a more moderate area. Well,
• 48:06
  Speaker 21: Sandford's from Charleston. He won Charleston in the first go round.
• 48:09
  Speaker 21: He just endorsed Norman. The other largest share of voters
• 48:13
  Speaker 21: is along the coast, that Myrtle Beach area. That's where
• 48:15
  Speaker 21: the President is going to have his rally, and the
• 48:18
  Speaker 21: hope is that they can boost turnout in that area,
• 48:21
  Speaker 21: which is very pro Trump, in order to push her
• 48:24
  Speaker 21: over the finish line. But I think after that GAF
• 48:26
  Speaker 21: I just don't think it's going to work.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, again, it's a disturbing situation. And I'm
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: curious about your take on Greta. You know, she actually
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: is very upset that everybody's focusing on that question and
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: her answer. She said that it's unfair and that she
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: wishes she had not asked the question. What do you
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: make of that coming from the debate moderator.
• 48:49
  Speaker 9: It's ridiculous.
• 48:50
  Speaker 21: I mean, we have debates so that we can find
• 48:53
  Speaker 21: out more about the candidates, where they stand and what
• 48:55
  Speaker 21: their competency is. And that question, which you know, high
• 49:00
  Speaker 21: school students could answer, you know what the problem with
• 49:03
  Speaker 21: Taiwan and the issues with China and whether or not
• 49:05
  Speaker 21: that's a national security fit threat. And by the way,
• 49:08
  Speaker 21: just to her to say that that's not that big
• 49:11
  Speaker 21: of a deal and not a big issue, you know,
• 49:13
  Speaker 21: and she wants to focus on domestic issues, well, I'm
• 49:16
  Speaker 21: sorry as a South Carolinian, if you know, you get
• 49:18
  Speaker 21: us in a war and with China, which is probably
• 49:21
  Speaker 21: the most likely war we get in, and our kids
• 49:24
  Speaker 21: are sent overseas, suddenly that becomes a very big domestic
• 49:27
  Speaker 21: issue that's hitting your kitchen table when your kid's gone
• 49:29
  Speaker 21: to war, So I just think it's laughable for her
• 49:32
  Speaker 21: to kind of spin it in that way. And I'm
• 49:35
  Speaker 21: not sure what Greta's doing. It's so weird to see
• 49:38
  Speaker 21: all of these establishment figures trying to carry water for Darlene.
• 49:44
  Speaker 21: It's like, if the voters don't want her and she's
• 49:45
  Speaker 21: not competent, guys, just stop, like, let the voters decide,
• 49:50
  Speaker 21: and let's make sure we get competent candidates, because we
• 49:52
  Speaker 21: could potentially lose this seat. The Democrats have been salivating
• 49:56
  Speaker 21: over flipping South Carolina seats for election cycle after election cycle.
• 50:01
  Speaker 21: In fact, they spent more money against Lindsey Graham. I
• 50:03
  Speaker 21: think it was six years ago than they had ever
• 50:06
  Speaker 21: spent in US history for campaigns in the Senate. And
• 50:11
  Speaker 21: so I wouldn't be surprised if the Democrat candidate Annie Andrews,
• 50:14
  Speaker 21: who's already taking full advantage of this massive gaff, goes
• 50:17
  Speaker 21: in and all the money comes in against Darlene. So
• 50:20
  Speaker 21: there's also a risk of potentially losing this Senate seat
• 50:23
  Speaker 21: in a hard year election year for Republicans. I'm not
• 50:27
  Speaker 21: willing to take that gamble, and I hope most South
• 50:29
  Speaker 21: Carolinians aren't either, Adam, but we get vote for Ralph Norman.
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: Adam.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: I'm curious here. The President came out earlier today. So
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: they're going to let three hundred thousand metric tons of
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: beef be imported over the next ninety days, no tariffs.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: That beef is that farign? Beef is going to be
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: sold at I think twenty five percent less than American beef.
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: The US Cattleman's Association coming out and saying this is insanity.
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: You've got the President saying, you know what, we're going
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: to have to just deal with these higher gas prices
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: right now. I'm curious. I mean, you've been in politics before.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: How do you see all of this playing out. Do
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: you anticipate any of these moves having an impact on
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: voter turnout in the midterm elections?
• 51:17
  Speaker 21: Well, I think if the elections were today, they would
• 51:19
  Speaker 21: definitely impact. But I'm hoping and I'm confident. I mean,
• 51:23
  Speaker 21: President Trump is a very adept person when it comes
• 51:27
  Speaker 21: to campaigning and his competency in his office. So hopefully
• 51:30
  Speaker 21: they'll be positioning rapidly because you know the elections are
• 51:34
  Speaker 21: coming very very soon, to focus on those affordability issues
• 51:38
  Speaker 21: and give more reassurance there. I would be very concerned
• 51:41
  Speaker 21: if the elections were today, but we do have a
• 51:44
  Speaker 21: little bit of runway, and the Republicans just broadly need
• 51:48
  Speaker 21: to really hone their message on affordability. It's what everyone
• 51:52
  Speaker 21: cares about right now, and so yeah, I hope that
• 51:55
  Speaker 21: they can have some better answers and reassure people more
• 51:58
  Speaker 21: because there's so much that this administration is doing that
• 52:02
  Speaker 21: is fantastic, and we're winning in a lot of different areas,
• 52:05
  Speaker 21: so you need to highlight those areas and also be
• 52:07
  Speaker 21: making sure that the moves that we're making right now
• 52:10
  Speaker 21: are actually dealing with those affordability issues so that we
• 52:13
  Speaker 21: can have a good showing come November.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're just off message right now. They got to
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: get back on the messaging there, Adam. We're going to
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: have to leave it there. We will be watching as
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: the president to host the rally today, and of course
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: it is going to be a very closely watched race
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: as well. Adam Morgan, thank.
• 52:31
  Speaker 21: You for joining us, Thanks for having me on.
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: All Right, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah,
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: we have got to get back on message here. The
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: president has had a very successful two years. Two years
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: as I outline in the Golden Age. But for some
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: weird reason, the administration is off focus right now. There
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: was a survey app people are and the gist of
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: the survey is that the American people say the president's
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: focusing too much attention on all of the projects in Washington,
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: d C. The ballroom and the arch and all of
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: the monuments and over that. Look, there's nothing wrong with that,
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: there's nothing inherently wrong with that, but that is if
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: that is the only messaging coming out of the White House.
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: You're struggling to pay your bills and the President is
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: holding a press conference outside the big, beautiful, new, huge helipad,
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: then yeah, there's going to be a disconnector again, we
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: need the helipad. I mean that was a necessity, but
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: the issue is about the optics, and it's always about
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: the optics when it comes to politics. So, as Adam said,
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: we still have plenty of time the elections in November,
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: but we've got to start getting this economy turned around.
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: The affordability issue is going to be a factor, and
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: it is one right now, which is why the President
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: made this dramatic move and allowed the foreigners to send
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: their beef to America. All right, got to take a break.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Nine oh one six zero five nine two six. This
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: is the Todd Sterns Show.
• 54:12
  Speaker 13: Tod, would it be safe to say that Darlene Graham
• 54:14
  Speaker 13: would be considered a dei higher? You know what happens
• 54:19
  Speaker 13: if she wanted to be a surgeon, Just put her
• 54:25
  Speaker 13: in the operating room because of who she knows. Just
• 54:29
  Speaker 13: throwing that out there.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right. That's Mark from the Villages in Florida,
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: America's friendliest hometown. And you know it's a great point
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: he raises here, is that Darling Graham was appointed to
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: the position because she was related to Lindsey Graham. Oh.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: By the way, you folks in the villages, you can
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: purchase copies of the Golden Age at your local Barnes
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: and Noble. There in the villages, You folks that live there,
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: you know exactly where that book story is and they
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: have plenty of copies of the Golden Age. How Trump
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: saved America? This story out of San Francisco. Sam Dogin
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: was spending the afternoon in the park teaching his kids,
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: his six year old daughter and nine year old son,
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: how to play tennis. They had just returned from a
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: family trip to Hawaii, and he took the kids out
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: for what he thought was going to be, I don't know,
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: a nice afternoon, just a father and his kids. Very
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: quintessential American moment. So anyway, they were there at the
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: Golden Gate Heights Park about twenty minutes into the practice
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: session to San Francisco rangers. Park rangers came over and
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: asked mister Dogin if he had a permit to teach tennis.
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: Mister Jojun was kind of shocked. According to the California Post,
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: he said, what are you talking about. These are my kids.
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: We're just out here goofing around. And one of the
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: little well, the son told the park rangers he's my daddy.
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: They were gonna get the guy a ticket. This is insane,
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: it's this is bizarre. But one of the rangers told
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: him that it's against the law to teach your kids
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: how to play a sport in San Francisco using a
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: city park. And the find was nearly two hundred dollars
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety two bucks. That's how much they
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: were going to charge this guy. Mister Jojin said this
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: was nuts. He said, there was it was just a surprise.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: Why even bothered trying to disrupt a perfectly nice afternoon
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: with a father and his two kids. Park rangers say
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: they routinely check people to see if they if they
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: had permits. What what an insane story? This, ladies and gentlemen,
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: is why you just cannot elect Democrats. They sucked the
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: fun out of everything. This is really just unbelievable. Wow,
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: we'll be right back.
• 57:28
  Speaker 18: All right, welcome back.
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen were rocking it out on this Friday
• 57:36

  Speaker 2: That's Creek Side Place. So you folks, if you want
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: to get a copy right now, you can go down
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: to the Barnes and Noble and get yourself a copy
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: of The Golden Age How Trump Saved America? All right, Joe,
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: We just had a story out of San Francisco, the
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: California Post reporting on this. A poor guy going out
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: to the local park with his two kids and they're
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: small kids, like six and nine, and he was just
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: going to spend the afternoon teaching the kids how to
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: play tennis. Park rangers show up and say you can't
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: do that. You have to have a permit to teach tennis,
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: and the fine is like two hundred bucks, and they,
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: I guess they extended some grace and that they didn't
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: like find the guy. But the idea that you can't
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: even go out in San Francisco and teach your kid
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: how to play tennis or baseball, this is nuts.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 22: No, no, this is California. I mean, I'm surprised that
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 22: you're surprised. This is exactly what happens. I don't know
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 22: if you remember the story about a year and a
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 22: half ago where there was a church that was feeding
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 22: homeless people in the San Diego Park and they were
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 22: making the sandwiches in their kitchens at home. They would
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 22: you know, put the food together and then they would
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 22: take it to the park and feed these poor people,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 22: you know, who didn't.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 15: Have any food.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 22: They were rummaging through garbage pails. They shut it down Todd.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 22: They told him, you can't do this. You have to
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 22: have a health permit, you have to do this, and
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 22: then that I'm going, seriously, we can't feed people. That
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 22: we should have put the money through Newsom's pocket and
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 22: they would and fine with it.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 15: But no, we see this stuff all over the place.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: So the poor guy, his name is mister Dojin, he says,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: he says he has to carry documentation with him, and
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: he says, I'm gonna have to get their birth certificates
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: and carry them with me in my tennis bag just
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: to prove they're my children. I'm not going to get
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: a permit to teach my children.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 15: Wow. Yeah, amazing, but not surprising exceently.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: No, it's it's it's just shocking. Another story. I'm curious about.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: This is from Fox News dot Com, and I know
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: that you're president of the school board there in Santa Clarita,
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: one of the largest districts in the nation. In the state,
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: the controller candidate there's a guy named Herb Morgan. He's
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: really upset because spending for education has gone from ninety
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: seven billion dollars in twenty nineteen to one hundred and
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: fifty one billion dollars and the kids are getting more stupid. Meanwhile,
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: in Mississippi, for example, they started teaching you know, phonics again,
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: and Mississippi is one of the highest ranked schools when
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: it comes to literacy and things of that nature. Herb
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: here's got a big problem with what's going down in California.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: What say you, I do too.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 15: I think he's I think he's Look, I'm not pleased.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 15: I'm not making fun of the people in Mississippi.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 22: But I mean, seriously, California is supposed to be the
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 22: most technology savvy state in the Union, or we're supposed
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 22: to have all these great teachers, and we have a
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 22: lot of great teachers, we have a great education system.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 15: And we're failing big time.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 22: We get I think in my district, it changes in
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 22: different areas, but we get almost fourteen thousand dollars per student,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 22: and the state puts these mandates on you to make
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 22: it very very hard to actually teach number one and
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 22: number two. The curriculum is crud I'll put it that way.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 22: So he's right, He's exactly right. We're spending a lot
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 22: of money. We're not getting that bang for a bunk.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 22: I'm not going to blame it all on the teachers
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 22: like some people do. I'm going to blame it all
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 22: in the state and the education system. What's coming down
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 22: from the state telling us what we have to teach
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 22: the kids? Todd, We used to have an exit exam
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 22: for high school. They took it in tenth grade, and
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 22: I used to make fun of that, saying, Okay, got
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 22: two more years. Why are we giving it tenth grade?
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 22: To see with these kids are at We no longer
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 22: have an exit exam. You get out, whether you can read, write,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 22: speak English, whether you can add two plus three. You're
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 22: going to graduate high school if you have enough credits.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 22: And even getting credits isn't that hard to do anymore.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 22: So it's the state fails big time on education. But
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 22: we're probably close to number one and what we spend
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 22: per student.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's just insanity. And again, you know this
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 2: this video that went viral a few days ago, the
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: poor guy in Texas, the school teacher weeping because his
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: high school kids don't know how to read or write.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is a complete failure of the children
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: of America and also moms and dads because quite frankly,
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: moms and dads, you need to be teaching your kids
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: how to read and write before they step foot in school.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 22: And I'll go on step further with it. Yeah, they
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 22: should be doing that, but you also should be engaged
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 22: in your child's education. Find out what they're teaching, find
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 22: out what they're learning, ask them questions, you know, to
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 22: interrogate them, but sit down and watch them do their
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 22: homework or whatever it takes for you to feel comfortable. Todd,
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 22: I got stuck in that trap with my youngest son.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 22: They were moving him along, they were, but there was
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 22: just something that wasn't right. And so I used to
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 22: have my kids read books with few pages in it,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 22: and then I would talk to them on Saturday about, Okay,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 22: would you read this week?
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 15: What did you He couldn't read. He was in sixth
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 15: grade and he literally couldn't read.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 22: And they told me when I when I questioned them
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 22: on it and brought it to their attention, they tried
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 22: to tell me he was at grade level, but he
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 22: was in sixth grade reading in a fourth grade level.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 22: And they tried to tell, well, you know, some kids
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 22: are just you know, D plus C minus kids. You're
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 22: gonna have to come to that conclusion.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 15: So he can't read.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 22: He couldn't even tell whether he was a C plus
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 22: or a D minus student on his report card.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: He can't read.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 15: That's what we have, That's what we're up against here
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 15: in this state.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: Joe Masina joining us on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line today. Joe,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: I want to switch gears. I want to play some audio.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: There's a new debate that has surfaced over the difference
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: between tipping and gratuities. And there's a lady who went
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: on TikTok and she identifies herself as a waitress, and
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: here's what she had to say.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 23: What's up, y'all, Welcome back to another day in a
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 23: life as a waitress. I just want to let everybody
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 23: know that gratuity is not a tip.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: Gratuity is gratuity and a tip is a tip. Let
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 3: me explain.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 23: Gratuity is often split between all the waitresses depending on
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 23: where you work. Out of that gratuity, the waitress has
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 23: to pay the bartender, the person making your drink. Out
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 23: of that gratuity, the server also has to pay the barback.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 23: Who are the people who come and help clean up
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 23: make sure the table stay clean. So when I give
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 23: somebody a receipt and they look at me and they say, oh,
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 23: gratuity is included, I say, gratuity is included, but a
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 23: tip is not.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: Gratuity is gratuity, and a tip is a tip.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 23: And if gratuity isn't solely going to the person who's
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 23: serving you, and your server is treating you right, making
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 23: sure you have everything, keeping your space clean, being responsive,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 23: and just you know, being a great.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 3: Server, then you should tip your server.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 23: And if you can't afford the tip, then you shouldn't
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 23: be out playing and simple.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: Jeff, Joe, what do you say about that?
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 15: Our education system has failed us tremendously. That's what I'd
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 15: say about that.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 22: But no, I mean, look, I don't know how fursting this,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 22: I really know who sat her down, but I have
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 22: a lot of I know a lot of service. I
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 22: know a lot of waitresses and waters. No, the tip
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 22: is the tip, and if she decides unless the restaurant
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 22: forces it, I know that that happens in some cases.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 22: But if she decides that the bush boy, the bartender
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 22: or whatever is part of that whole thing, then so
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 22: be it. But no, I'm sorry. The tip is the tip,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 22: and I'm one of those guys. I tip accordingly. So
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 22: if I don't see you, you come by the table
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 22: one time for the whole meal, you get about a dollar.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 22: But if you're giving me fantastic service, I am that
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 22: guy'll give you, you know, ten fit ffteen twenty bucks
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 22: if you're really attentive and make sure that you know
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 22: we're taken care of.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: I you know this, This is mind boggling to me.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: First of all, what the restaurants are now doing. And
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: so the gratuity is they'll add that. So like say
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: you have four or five people in your party, they'll
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: add the gratuity in so you're forced to pay that,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: which is you know what, fifteen to twenty percent. And
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: then she's expecting a tip on top of the mandatory
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: gratuity that the restaurant adds in and people are wondering
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: why these restaurants are going out of business. It seems
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: to me this is the reason why it's one of them.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 22: Because here in California, as you know, you know, minimum
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 22: wage now for these people, and I don't mean that in
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 22: a derogatory way, but minimum wage for these services is
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 22: twenty bucks in twenty one bucks an hour and going
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 22: up from there. And the restaurants they work on a
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 22: slim margin to begin with. And if you're a mom
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 22: and pop restaurant, you got your own paycheck sitt in
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 22: a drawer waiting to cash them. Oh so there's a
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 22: lot of places in a closing. One of my favorite pizza
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 22: joints near me is closing down. They can't afford all
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 22: the fees and the regulations from the state of California.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 22: It's a bad place to have a food business, especially,
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 22: so you're right. I mean, it's it's making it hard
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 22: for people to go out and eat. It's making it
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 22: hard for business. It's food businesses to stay open.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: Dylan, to you tip, I do tip?
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 4: Are you?
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 2: Are you a good tipper? What kind of a tipper?
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 15: Are you?
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 4: I tip at least twenty. If it's a good service,
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 4: then I'll go higher.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: So, guys, I'm at the Corky's drive through, and the
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: Corky's one of our you know, it's not my favorite
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: barbecue joint here, but you know, when you're in a
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: pinch when Tom's Barbecue runs out of pork. It's still
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: waiting to figure out how that happened. But so you
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: I go to Corky's and so I'm in the drive through. Guys,
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: I'm in the drive through, place my order, give them
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: my card, I get it back to sign and there's
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: a place for me to leave a tip and drive through?
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: What is that like a thing?
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 17: Now?
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 3: What about?
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 15: What about you go to the coffee shop we have.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 15: I don't frequent Starbucks. I go to the smaller ones.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 22: But there's times where I have a client that wants
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 22: to meet at the Starbucks and you go in there
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 22: and when the you know, little electronic device that they
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 22: have you use all the time, Now it pops up.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 22: Now I'm standing there, I'm putting my card in there, right,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 22: I'm placing the order verbally, and they want me to
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 22: put a tip in there for all the work I did.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, I know exactly what you're talking about. I
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: was getting some iced tea. It was a two dollars
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: iced tea. Okay, a two dollars iced tea, and it
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: gave you the option of a one dollar tip. I'm
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: tipping half the price of the iced tea.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 15: Oh all right, fifty percent.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 22: We're good. So anyhow, No, it's I will tip somebody.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 22: It doesn't matter what it is, whether I go to
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 22: the car wash or what have you. I'm one of those,
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 22: a merit tipper.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: How do you like that? I just angers I'm not.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: It makes me unhappy, you know, it really makes me
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: regret going out to eat, you know, if they're just
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: nickel and diming you. So when you look at that, like, say,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: if it's a twenty dollars burger, all right, and if
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: you're gonna go out into a nice restaurant like a
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: Roost Chris, you know you're gonna get a you know,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: order a burger. You're gonna pay a good price for it.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: But then by the time you get finished with all
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: of the additional fees, you're looking at a thirty or
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: forty dollars burger.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 15: No kidding, Hey, I would.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 22: I was in an event a couple of weekends ago
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 22: where they had a basic hotdog and hamburger. You know,
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 22: we used to call them roach coaches, right food truck. Anyway,
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 22: I got a basic cheeseburger, would let us in tomato
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 22: mustard catchup, and a small thing of fries. And it
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 22: was fourteen dollars.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 15: Good.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 22: I was waiting for the stock certificate. You know, I'm
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 22: standing there grabbing my hamburger. Fourteen bucks.
• 1:10:51

• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: Just then sure it's designer. What are you gonna do?
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: You know, it's like a coffee shop? All right, Fine,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: I'm paying for the ambiance, but really I'm tipping fifty
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 2: percent That's what I'm expected to do here. Or the
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: tip is more than the actual beverage itself.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 4: That's rough.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, I gotcha, I gotcha. I'm curious, ladies and gentlemen,

  Speaker 4: I've been alive during that time, that's true. I've gotten
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: to do that. They didn't play it.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: They don't do it anymore. You know why, because everything's
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 2: automated and a lot of the voices on these rock
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: stations are all like AI.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 4: It's not live. It's not a live show anymore.

• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: that as well. In the last hour of the program,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: we were talking about this sort of new controversy. A woman,
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: a waitress going on TikTok and explaining that there's a
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: difference between a gratuity and a tip and if you
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: can't afford to tip, then you should not be eating out. Well,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: I want to go to the phone lines, David and Memphis,
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: Tennessee listening to us on our flag ship station. All right, David,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 2: So were you a waiter? Is is that the knowledge
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: you're bringing into the conversation here.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 24: Well, actually, no, my nephew he worked his way through
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 24: college being a waiter, and he's told me a lot
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 24: of different stories. And like France, you know you talking
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 24: about the gratuity on the parties, they put them gratuities
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 24: like on six or more because nowadays, and he's experienced
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 24: himself and it was very disappointing before they did it.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 24: If the rest of me worked there, groups of people
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 24: will come in there and you know, works about our good,
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 24: great service, and they would leave little to nothing, and
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 24: when he could have been working the smaller people that
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 24: actually make us some money. So that's one reason why
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 24: they put gratuity on, you know, on parties. And as
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 24: far as that girl talking about paying the folks just
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 24: like the guy who's talking to the other radio guy.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 24: He's right, it's your choice to give those folks your gratuity.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 24: It's not mandatory I've ever heard of, you know. That's
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 24: basically what I wanted to say.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I I normally tip the bill, so that's
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, I just do that. If the service is
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: really good, whatever the bill is, I'll just tip that.
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: And you know, and I don't think anything of it.
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 2: What bothers me is when they write in those amounts
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: for you, because again I think that should always be
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: the diner's decision, you know, and their their choice to make.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 2: I get it though, with all the I mean I
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: I sort of understand the gratuity with those large groups
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: because there have been so many of these reports of
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: people just just all together skipping out on the bill.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: You know, they just get up and the and they
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 2: walk out and leave.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 24: Well, I'm for gratuities. I'm a big tip or anything
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 24: I do. There is a I forge's the name of
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 24: the restaurant.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 6: I won't even name it.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 24: If I he's down and barbed up by the railroad tracks.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 24: A breakfast restaurant. I've never I went in there once,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 24: and I walked out because the food they supposed he
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 24: was supposed to be good, but they had gy s
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 24: already had high prices there, and they had gratuity. Even
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 24: on the go orders, everything had a gratuity. I don't
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 24: agree with that. If you if you're going to force
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 24: me to pay something when you know in those influences,
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 24: especially to go orders and stuff, well you know, I'm
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 24: I'm not not get my business.
• 1:19:29

• 1:19:59
  Speaker 25: got this right here of the Golden Age how Trump
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 25: saved America by the one and only Todd Starns. I
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 25: did not know that my name was going to be
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 25: on the cover either, so my endorsement on the back.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 9: Thank you so much for allowing that. I want to.
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 25: Encourage everybody go out get a copy at your local bookstore,
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 25: and if Todd's in your air, make sure you get
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 25: it signed.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 9: So, Todd, I gotta get this one signed by you.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, Look, this is very cool, and you are
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: Your endorsement is right there with Pastor Jacobs, Robert Jeffers,
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: the President of the United States, and Caleb Bark.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 25: Big Company. I will every day be glad to be
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 25: counted with those guys.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: Actually, I was checking the index here. You're actually mentioned
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: in one of the chapters as as well. I was
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: looking at the index one eighty six your own page
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 2: one eighty six. Gala, Oh so on eighty six.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 25: Okay, well, I'll bookmark that highlight and the Yeah, maybe
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 25: do some reading, a little.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 2: Bit of light reading. So Caleb Park one of the
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: great early endorsers of the Golden Agent, and we really
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: appreciate that. Caleb. By the way, I want you to
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: weigh in here on the controversy over these gratuities. I
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 2: just think if you're at the drive through, you should
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: not be tipping. That's I just don't understand why we're
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: doing that.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 25: Yeah, Todd, I feel like it's a social tax at
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 25: this point where it's like if you've got you know, Americans,
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 25: we're generous people. We love to be generous, we love
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 25: to support others. And at this point, it's you know,
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 25: it's every time you're tipping and you know, you see
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 25: that those numbers and they're staring at you like, oh,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 25: you just gotta fill that out, and it's like they're
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 25: looking at you and you're like, what are The drive
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 25: through is the most ridiculous one. But when you're getting
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 25: a to go order, like you're, like the caller just
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 25: said from Memphis, I'd have to agree with him. It's
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 25: when you're getting it to go, they're not doing anything
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 25: extra and he you know, unless they're like giving you
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 25: a massage or something or helping you carry it out
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 25: to your far like at Chick fil A or something.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 2: Okay, this just turned weird. Yeah, I'm not.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 9: Sure you guys gotten out of control.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure I want to get a massage at
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 2: a Quirky's. I'm just gonna tell you. He's up on
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 2: the party sauce man.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 9: I gotta retract that one.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a bad example, all right. Caleb Park
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: with the neon sign talking about massages joining us from
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 2: Florida today.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 9: Not a good look, is it.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: No, it's terrible. Uh, but let's let's move on. You've
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: been you've been weighing in on the Sophie Cunningham story
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: out of the w n b A. Is this true
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: that she that you were You've started watching the w
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: n B A because of Sophie Cunningham. I.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 25: I mean, I didn't really want to admit that, Todd,
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 25: but yes, it is true. I started watching the NBA
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 25: and I've been watching the Fever games. She's so much
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 25: fun to watch on social follow on social media. She
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 25: just turned thirty years old. She was singing, you know,
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 25: a song at a bar. She's she's just a light
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 25: in a place that can be kind of, you know,
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 25: boring and dark. And yeah, watching her on the field,
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 25: she's making She's one of the highest three point shooters
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 25: in the league. And so that's fun because she sings
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 25: a lot of threes. And yeah, right now, a lot.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 9: Of people support her.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 25: She just got a deal with a coconut water brand,
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 25: so you're gonna see me drinking more coconut water in
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 25: the next couple of days. And I'm down here in
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 25: South Florida, so it's perfect.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 2: Well, there you go, Caleb. I want to bring into
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 2: the conversation Lisa, who's listening to us in Gainesville, Georgia
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: on WDUN. Lisa, you're on the air with me and
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 2: Caleb Park. What's on your mind?
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 8: Well, I just wanted to say two quick things. During
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 8: the China virus, when I would go through the drive through,
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 8: I usually gave the kid or an adult a chef
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 8: because I appreciated them working during that time we had lackdowns.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 8: And then there's a certain drive that I go through
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 8: early in the morning and this woman works there, and
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 8: as sometimes I hear her voice, she is so pleasant.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 8: She obviously it has a job like you and me
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 8: when you have to make money. She makes my morning
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 8: so happy. And I know she has some struggles, and
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 8: every time I give her a five dollars bill, it's
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 8: just a nice thing to do. She makes my day.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 8: She's positive, she wants to be at work.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: I like that, Lisa, I like that too. And Caleb,
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: you know, Caleb covers all these good stories. Caleb, you
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: ought to offer like a like a tipping box. They're
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 2: on your website.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 25: Well, and I was going to say Lisa, you're the
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 25: type of person that you know we like to highlight
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 25: and you're you're the everyday American. That true is the
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 25: reason we have tipping in that we're so generous because
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 25: you're giving people, you know, that support and so thank
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 25: you for doing that, thank you for sharing that, and yeah,
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 25: I'm with you. I think the flip side is when
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 25: it gets ridiculous. But people like you are what gives
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 25: me hope and what makes tipping, you know, a fun
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 25: thing to do.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: Like Todd said, all right, well done, Lisa, thank you
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 2: for the call. Let's go to Tom in Houston, Texas
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: listening to us on Patriot Talk nine to twenty. All right, Tom,
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 2: what say you?
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 6: Well? On the tipping, I am the guy who if
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 6: I got bad service, I would tip one or two
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 6: cents just to let them know. I saw the line
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 6: on there before all these digital tablets started showing up
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 6: that when you got a payper receipt. But now if
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 6: I get a good service, you're gonna get a good tip,
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 6: and I'm gonna open up a can of worms on you.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 6: We like the cruise two to three times a year,
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 6: and the big item on the cruise boats now is
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 6: this what do you call it? Obligatory tipping anywhere is
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 6: from eighteen to twenty four dollars per day per person
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 6: in your cabin. And I'm the guy. I go down
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 6: and I remove my tips and I give tips myself
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 6: in an envelope to my service people. Last time we
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 6: were on the cruise, at the main dining room, we
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 6: have a team, you know, an actual waiter who takes
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 6: the order and the other three people service to our table.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 6: I gave them the one hundred and fifty bucks at
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 6: the end of a seven day cruise, Okay, And I
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 6: really don't think that's too terribly much, you know, I
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 6: wouldn't say that was the incredible. And then our room
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 6: steward he got a hundred bucks, you know. So I
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 6: am not against tipping. I'm against foolish tipping.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Tom, I'm with you on that. And again it's
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 2: and it should be left up to the individual. I
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 2: think that's ultimately what you know, the issue I have.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 2: But the idea that I'm sitting in a dry through
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: and you're expecting a tip from me, yeah, I just
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's going to happen. Tom.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and Todd, I did leave a private message with
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 6: the DJ for you, So you need to get together
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 6: once the show's over and you've had two or three lattes.
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: All right, thank you for that, Tom, all right, thanks
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: for calling. I'm kind of nervous about that. When Caleb
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 2: no doubt this is an issue. I think it does
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of people. You know, they want to be
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: able to go out, and they do want to do
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: the right thing here. They just don't want to have
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: to pay more in the tip than they actually pay
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 2: for their meal meal.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 25: I think, yeah, And I'd have to disagree with Tom
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 25: a little bit. He said it wasn't a very generous tip.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 25: That was a super generous tipe for the you know,
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 25: for the staff there, and so you know, I think
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 25: a lot of times people don't like to tooth their horn.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 9: Tom, great job.
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 25: But I think why people are upset about the tipping
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 25: is because it's sneaky. You know, there's this pressure and
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 25: sometimes it'll be like, oh, there's a tip, and then
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 25: there's a service charge, and it's like you're like, wait,
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 25: what does.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 9: Each thing mean?
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 25: And and then now you have waitresses claiming that gratuity
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 25: and tipping are different. So I don't know, Todd, I
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 25: don't know what the answer really is.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 2: All Right, before we let you go, Caleb, a big,
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: big question about who should replace Caroline Levitt. She's leaving
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: the Trump administration. She has done a brilliant job as
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 2: press secretary. I'm just gonna run through the listener. Who
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: do you like Scott Jennings.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 9: I do like him.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 25: You know, he goes viral on social media for a
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 25: lot of his takedowns on the CNN panels, So I
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 25: think it would be interesting to see him at the podium.
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: You see, I don't think he's a truck guy. I
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 2: really don't. And he gets upset when you mock his
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: teammates over at CNN, and that's a big red flag
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 2: for me. So all right, we'll put a question mark
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 2: beside Jennings Elena Haba. What do you think about Elena?
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 25: Well, she already said that she's probably not going to
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 25: be the pick, but I do think she looks the part.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 9: Has defended Trump in court. She would be a good pick.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 9: She got two thumbs up for me.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: All right. I've also heard about Fox News correspondent Alexis McAdams,
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: not very well known.
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 25: Yeah, so she did get the green light from Trump
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 25: when he was interviewing her. I think it was a
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 25: little tongue in cheek, but I think she would probably do.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 25: I don't know, because she's a reporter, actually don't really
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 25: know what her opinion is. And if we're being honest, Todd,
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 25: I think that the person that's going to be the
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 25: next White House correspondent, white House Press secretary is probably
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 25: going to come from inside the White House because Trump
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 25: really likes loyalty and somebody that's been with him. Caroline
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 25: Lovett was somebody that was by his side every step
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 25: of the way from the campaign to the White House,
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 25: and she's done a phenomenal job. I think whether or
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 25: not you're a Democrat Republican, I think everybody can agree
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 25: she's done an excellent job, especially as the youngest press
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 25: secretary that we've had and raising two young kids.
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 2: There has also been some speculation that there's somebody else
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 2: that could be in the mix. I've seen a photograph
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 2: of this individual behind the White House podium there in
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 2: the press briefing room holding actually one of these iced machas,
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 2: one Caleb Park. Can you confirm that you would be
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 2: up for the job.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 25: Well, Todd, I will say this, I'm not closing any
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 25: doors here. And if President Trump calls me, I will
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 25: answer you. And you can check out that photo of
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 25: my social media at Caleb Park.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 2: At Caleb Park. All right, Caleb, we're gonna have to
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 2: leave it there, my friend, what do you have got cocaine?
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 2: Where do you want to send people if they want
• 1:31:21

  Speaker 18: Yeah?

  Speaker 2: we've got to take a quick break here, folks. Our
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 2: telephone number nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 2: two six. Again that number nine oh one two six
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 2: zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Sterns Show.
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to o'calla, Florida. Richard is listening
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 2: to us on w OCA. Hi, Richard, what's on your
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 2: mind today?
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 6: H Nick?
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 26: Thanks you for taking a call, mister Todd.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 22: Uh.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 26: One thing on the tipping. Occasionally I'll tip at the
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 26: drive to win if they're friendly and nice and uh,
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 26: you know you like to tip on that. But something
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 26: that does bother me is when you they bring your
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 26: bio and it gives you two or three options. Uh,
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 26: Like it's like they're demanding it out of you. And
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 26: that's not what a tip is. Forward tips. You're tipping
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 26: for good service. If the service is mediocre, you might
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 26: on tip ten percent or twelve. If it's night service,
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 26: you might go from fifteen to twenty. You know what
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 26: I'm saying. But it's like they're now they're even showing
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 26: you can give as much as twenty five, and to me, that's, uh,
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 26: that's no taste, that's poor taste. We're turning into an
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 26: entitlement society. We're beggars and bombs. We're turning into beggars
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 26: and bombs and it it bothers me.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 10: Uh.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 26: And then another issue if I mentioned unfunct endorsements. I'm
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 26: just I'm appointed mister Trump, which is North Carolina endorsement.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 26: I'm very disappointed in his Florida endorsement. That mister Collins
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 26: and mister Paul Renter, both of them was excellent conservative choices.
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 26: That has proven where they stand in what they'll do
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 26: for the conservative Florida. And this guy they Trump endorsed
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 26: was a transplant. He moved in here from New York
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 26: and he used to be a dim Richard.
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 2: It's I am right there with you. It's been a
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 2: little bit aggravating to see some of these endorsements coming down,
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 2: no doubt about it, Richard. I'm gonna have to leave
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 2: it there and thank you for listening. By the way,
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 2: you folks in Okallap the Barnes and Noble College Road,
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 2: they've got copies of the Golden Age. Same thing over
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 2: at the village's Lake Sumter Landing. They've got plenty of
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 2: copies here as well. All right, hang and tight, everybody,
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 2: We'll be right back
