- 0:12Speaker 2: Joe works at a steel mill.
- 0:14Speaker 3: He's damn near every day. He's for work when the

- 0:21Speaker 3: the work. Joe has everything he dreamed of. All the
- 0:25Speaker 3: treasures that he needs.
- 0:28Speaker 1: No wonder Joe's always smiling.
- 0:30Speaker 4: He only aims to please you.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Let me be your Joe.
- 0:35Speaker 5: Bless you for letting me be of service to you.
- 0:37Speaker 4: I want to be your Joe.
- 0:41Speaker 5: Having flashbacks to 20 years ago, when on a misty,
- 0:47Speaker 5: kind of just rained morning in Pennsylvania, we came to
- 0:52Speaker 5: our audience. And if you were around then, Please send
- 0:56Speaker 5: me something. I'll make you a t-shirt or something if
- 0:58Speaker 5: you've been listening to me since 2006 because you've had
- 1:03Speaker 5: to search. It hasn't been as easy as it has
- 1:06Speaker 5: been now thanks to our friends at the Talk Media Network.
- 1:10Speaker 5: We were here. No buildings. There were a bunch of
- 1:13Speaker 5: phone lines that the phone company had run into a
- 1:17Speaker 5: field and there we were in between satellite trucks from
- 1:21Speaker 5: CNN and Fox and you name it. They're We actually
- 1:26Speaker 5: had to plug into CNN's remote truck because they got
- 1:31Speaker 5: everyone phone lines so that they could connect back to
- 1:34Speaker 5: their studios. Because that's how we did it back in
- 1:36Speaker 5: those days. They called them POTS lines. You can't have
- 1:42Speaker 5: them anymore because copper costs too much money. So we
- 1:48Speaker 5: were standing in a field. Here we're in a beautiful
- 1:51Speaker 5: facility just outside of it actually. the Flight 93 Memorial
- 1:55Speaker 5: Visitors Center here in Shanksville. Sun is just, I'm going
- 1:59Speaker 5: to get a better look at the facility and get
- 2:02Speaker 5: myself oriented to where we are today versus where we
- 2:06Speaker 5: were 20 years ago when we were here for the
- 2:10Speaker 5: fifth anniversary of the terror attacks and those passengers on
- 2:14Speaker 5: Flight 93 that fought back once it became clear what
- 2:17Speaker 5: the hell was going on in the skies above them.
- 2:22Speaker 5: So we'll get that coming up for you this morning,
- 2:25Speaker 5: coming to you in all this, brought to you by
- 2:27Speaker 5: our friends at Big Ridge Guns and Archery and the
- 2:30Speaker 5: Heritage Guide to Historic Sites at historicsites.heritage.org. The boss is
- 2:39Speaker 5: going to join us, the man in charge of the
- 2:43Speaker 5: Flight 93 Memorial is going to join us a little bit. Also,
- 2:48Speaker 5: Jim Wood. one of the top gun trainers and self-defense
- 2:51Speaker 5: trainers in the country, certainly in the mid-Atlantic. And he's
- 2:57Speaker 5: going to join us to talk about see something, do something,
- 3:00Speaker 5: and that kind of thing, as well as you and
- 3:02Speaker 5: me at 434-882-4217. And yes, the assassination of Charlie Kirk
- 3:09Speaker 5: will come up. And it's sad because a lot of
- 3:13Speaker 5: folks in my industry aren't covering it because he did
- 3:16Speaker 5: talk radio before. for another network. But you know what?
- 3:22Speaker 5: I loved his program and I loved everything he did.
- 3:25Speaker 5: So we'll talk about that as well this morning. In
- 3:27Speaker 5: our first things, of course, the midterm convention for the
- 3:33Speaker 5: RNC kicked off last night. President Trump laid out accomplishments
- 3:37Speaker 5: and said to the crowd, this has been the most
- 3:40Speaker 5: successful two years financially and every other way in history
- 3:43Speaker 5: of the presidency in together we will turn a two-year
- 3:46Speaker 5: comeback into a 250-year lead. Meanwhile, the Energy Department's statistical
- 3:53Speaker 5: arm has raised its forecast for the cost of diesel
- 3:57Speaker 5: fuel for next year, warning that global supplies are tightening
- 4:02Speaker 5: and domestic inventories are down, which could keep fuel costs
- 4:06Speaker 5: elevated into 2027. They didn't detail as to why that is,
- 4:12Speaker 5: although many in the commentariat are pointing to the battles
- 4:15Speaker 5: in Iran. Roughly one million people who buy their own
- 4:20Speaker 5: health coverage could receive $ 500 direct deposits from the federal
- 4:24Speaker 5: government this fall, so rebates for participating under Obamacare. Before
- 4:32Speaker 5: leaving for Dallas, where President Trump was to convene the
- 4:37Speaker 5: RNC convention, He held what he called a great conversation
- 4:41Speaker 5: with Russian President Vladimir Putin, including what he said was
- 4:45Speaker 5: Putin's desire to reach a deal to end the war
- 4:49Speaker 5: in Ukraine. The administration rolled out changes to the national
- 4:55Speaker 5: census that would include only U.S. citizens and permanent residents.
- 4:59Speaker 5: This move could significantly change how political representation gets meted
- 5:05Speaker 5: out through redistricting. The Census Bureau submitted the proposal today.
- 5:09Speaker 5: just over a year after President Trump ordered its parent
- 5:12Speaker 5: agency to craft a new census. Treasury Department said yesterday
- 5:18Speaker 5: it will buy $ 6 billion in 10- and 20-year Treasury
- 5:22Speaker 5: bonds during its buyback operation today, triple the size of
- 5:26Speaker 5: its last long-dated operation. The Treasury last month said it
- 5:30Speaker 5: would double the size of its buybacks on longer-dated securities
- 5:35Speaker 5: to at least $ 4 billion over the next quarter. Justice
- 5:41Speaker 5: Department says it's planning to deepen its antitrust investigation into
- 5:46Speaker 5: Fox Corp's $ 22 billion acquisition of Roku. And Apple, in
- 5:52Speaker 5: what used to be akin to a national holiday, introduced
- 5:56Speaker 5: its new iPhone with its new president and CEO, John Ternes,
- 6:01Speaker 5: rolling it out, the Duo. The folks at.
- 6:09Speaker 5: The Daily Signal are expecting some reporting from me here,
- 6:13Speaker 5: so I better get to work. We've got some neat
- 6:16Speaker 5: stuff coming, full coverage of the September 11th anniversaries here
- 6:23Speaker 5: in Shanksville as it relates to our beat in Virginia.
- 6:27Speaker 5: They also have team coverage at the RNC convention, so
- 6:31Speaker 5: if you want to keep up to date on what's
- 6:33Speaker 5: going on in Dallas for the RNC convention as well

- 7:02Speaker 7: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
- 7:06Speaker 7: to think about what matters most when it comes to
- 7:08Speaker 7: our spending, our healthcare. This is why so many people
- 7:11Speaker 7: are joining MediShare right now. MediShare is a trusted way

- 8:04Speaker 8: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:08Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin.
- 8:11Speaker 5: Products on the market.
- 8:13Speaker 8: Hi, I'm Dr.
- 8:14Speaker 4: Mitch.
- 8:15Speaker 8: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 8: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional programs. It
- 8:25Speaker 8: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:29Speaker 8: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:33Speaker 8: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation has antioxidant
- 8:38Speaker 8: properties and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer or
- 8:44Speaker 8: at least slow the spread of cancer and in many
- 8:47Speaker 8: instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells
- 8:52Speaker 8: even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 9:03Speaker 9: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 9:06Speaker 9: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 9: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 9:13Speaker 9: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 9:17Speaker 9: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 9:22Speaker 9: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:26Speaker 9: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:30Speaker 9: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 9:34Speaker 9: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 9:38Speaker 9: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 9:43Speaker 9: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 9:47Speaker 9: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov
- 9:54Speaker 9: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:59Speaker 1: Hi everybody.
- 9:59Speaker 10: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
- 10:02Speaker 10: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:05Speaker 10: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:07Speaker 10: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:09Speaker 10: birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes
- 10:13Speaker 10: who work hard to provide for their young. Or penguins,
- 10:16Speaker 10: who travel up to 500 miles to secure food for
- 10:18Speaker 10: their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump allows them
- 10:21Speaker 10: to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
- 10:24Speaker 10: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
- 10:27Speaker 10: the canines. We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home,
- 10:30Speaker 10: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life-saving
- 10:34Speaker 10: work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They
- 10:36Speaker 10: comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They
- 10:39Speaker 10: work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in
- 10:42Speaker 10: their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly
- 10:45Speaker 10: trained roles that contribute to society.
- 10:47Speaker 5: And help those in need.
- 10:48Speaker 10: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
- 10:51Speaker 10: heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
- 10:54Speaker 10: planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.
- 11:00Speaker 11: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 11:01Speaker 12: Oh, yeah?
- 11:02Speaker 13: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:04Speaker 14: And now a speech.
- 11:07Speaker 2: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:11Speaker 5: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 10: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 11:15Speaker 15: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 11:18Speaker 15: somebody call me a ride. Love that guy.
- 11:21Speaker 14: Me too.
- 11:22Speaker 16: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 11:24Speaker 16: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:29Speaker 17: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:32Speaker 17: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:36Speaker 17: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:40Speaker 17: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:43Speaker 17: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 11:46Speaker 17: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 11:52Speaker 17: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 11:55Speaker 17: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulations. Another time
- 11:59Speaker 17: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 12:01Speaker 17: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 12:05Speaker 17: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 12:08Speaker 17: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 12:11Speaker 17: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 12:15Speaker 17: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving
- 12:18Speaker 17: money by reducing your energy waste, check out ftc.gov slash green.

- 12:30Speaker 18: As a family member or friend, you may be the
- 12:33Speaker 18: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:36Speaker 18: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:41Speaker 18: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
- 12:44Speaker 6: But help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories

- 12:53Speaker 6: in your life. Treatment works. Recovery is possible.
- 13:12Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:37Speaker 5: So, yes, it is, we are approaching and we are
- 13:44Speaker 5: here at the Flight 93 Memorial for the 25th anniversary
- 13:52Speaker 5: of the terror attacks on the United States. But I
- 13:56Speaker 5: want to, on this first anniversary... of the assassination of
- 14:02Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, and apparently because
- 14:09Speaker 5: he was part of another radio network, most everybody is
- 14:15Speaker 5: ignoring this story. And I can't do that because it's
- 14:21Speaker 5: personal to me in a lot of ways because, well,
- 14:25Speaker 5: first and foremost, Charlie, a lot of the very earliest
- 14:30Speaker 5: turning point chapters, Liberty University, things like that around here
- 14:33Speaker 5: in our flagship state. But when Rush Limbaugh passed away,
- 14:39Speaker 5: my flagship station at the time, there's a 20-year redaction
- 14:44Speaker 5: in my resume, but I'll tell you about it anyway,
- 14:48Speaker 5: and I'll deny I ever said anything, so don't call
- 14:52Speaker 5: me to testify. But during that 20-year redaction of my career,
- 14:56Speaker 5: I ran a radio station that carried Rush Limbaugh. And
- 15:00Speaker 5: he was nearly as popular as I was locally. Kidding.
- 15:05Speaker 5: Although there was some research that questioned that. But me
- 15:09Speaker 5: and Rush led this radio station, and it was in
- 15:13Speaker 5: a liberal college town, and we were so popular. And
- 15:17Speaker 5: then Rush passed. And we said, well, now what do
- 15:20Speaker 5: we do? And, you know, when you have Lou Gehrig
- 15:25Speaker 5: on your team, you don't worry about who's going to
- 15:30Speaker 5: play first base next. So I didn't. And then it
- 15:36Speaker 5: came time to start thinking about what were you going
- 15:39Speaker 5: to do at lunchtime next. And I went looking around,
- 15:43Speaker 5: I went looking around, and somebody said, hey, do you
- 15:46Speaker 5: know that Charlie Kirk does a radio program? And he
- 15:51Speaker 5: does it at noon. I said, you've got to be
- 15:53Speaker 5: kidding me. Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA,
- 15:56Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk? Not some other guy named Charlie Kirk? And
- 15:59Speaker 5: they said, no, Charlie Kirk. And so I contacted his network.
- 16:03Speaker 5: And honestly, I think First Thing Today right now has
- 16:08Speaker 5: more affiliates than Charlie Kirk's show at the time did.
- 16:12Speaker 5: They were really sort of, it wasn't their thing. They
- 16:16Speaker 5: had another show on with a name at lunchtime. And
- 16:22Speaker 5: so Charlie was there. They had him on like a
- 16:24Speaker 5: sub channel. But I said, if you want him, yeah,
- 16:26Speaker 5: go ahead. And I had to make the case to
- 16:29Speaker 5: my employer, again, you know, in that redacted period of
- 16:34Speaker 5: my career. And so, you know, after several phone calls
- 16:39Speaker 5: to Florida, where he lived, I sent him a speech
- 16:45Speaker 5: Rush Limbaugh gave. I may have left out the details
- 16:49Speaker 5: that he was speaking to a Turning Point USA get-together, but,
- 16:54Speaker 5: I mean, it's politics, right? But I sent him this speech.
- 16:59Speaker 5: It's five minutes long. I'm not going to play it
- 17:01Speaker 5: for you now. But it was Rush just going on
- 17:05Speaker 5: and on and on about how he thought Charlie Kirk
- 17:07Speaker 5: was the future and how Charlie was, you know, where
- 17:13Speaker 5: the conservative movement needed to go and came along at
- 17:18Speaker 5: the right time and his impact on the youth was profound.
- 17:23Speaker 5: And I played that and my... My employer at the
- 17:27Speaker 5: time said, okay, I guess go ahead, put them on.
- 17:32Speaker 5: He wanted somebody who was associated with one of the
- 17:35Speaker 5: cable news channels or whatever. Because TV, I mean, we're
- 17:39Speaker 5: like moths. If somebody's on TV, they're obviously better than
- 17:43Speaker 5: somebody who's just on the radio. And it was huge.
- 17:48Speaker 5: It was seminal to the point that sometime later when
- 17:53Speaker 5: I launched my flagship station that we're with now, the
- 17:57Speaker 5: one my wife and I own, we were going to
- 17:59Speaker 5: bring Charlie's program onto it, and they fought me on it.
- 18:04Speaker 5: The very people who fought me about putting the show
- 18:07Speaker 5: on in the first place said, you can have everyone
- 18:09Speaker 5: else from the lineup except him. So obviously he had
- 18:13Speaker 5: an impact. I think that's perhaps the understatement of this
- 18:18Speaker 5: one-year anniversary. But there's another part to this. And I
- 18:23Speaker 5: think it's appropriate here in Shanksville because Shanksville and September
- 18:32Speaker 5: 11th of 2001 has begun a track towards political assassination,
- 18:42Speaker 5: terrorism instead of negotiation. Do what we want or we
- 18:49Speaker 5: will kill your friends and family. That's our body politic today.
- 18:54Speaker 5: I wish I could tell you differently. I'm supposed to
- 18:58Speaker 5: bring the yucks. I'm supposed to pick you up. I'm
- 19:01Speaker 5: supposed to say, rah, rah, come on, it's great. And
- 19:03Speaker 5: it is. It is. I mean, considering all the places
- 19:06Speaker 5: there are in the world, you know, we're still living
- 19:10Speaker 5: the salad life. Sometimes it feels like we're getting our
- 19:14Speaker 5: salad tossed, but we're living a salad life. But on
- 19:21Speaker 5: that fateful Tuesday morning back in 2001, the idea of
- 19:27Speaker 5: killing people to make a political point became normalized. It's
- 19:35Speaker 5: not like it hadn't happened before, but it became a thing.
- 19:41Speaker 5: It became what you planned. If you can't beat him,
- 19:46Speaker 5: kill him. If you can't out-debate him, shoot him. If
- 19:54Speaker 5: he is not capitulating to your dogma, murder him. And
- 20:02Speaker 5: we live in a post-Ten Commandments world anyway. I was
- 20:07Speaker 5: thinking about it. It's been.
- 20:11Speaker 5: A generation since Margaret Mary, what's her face, from the
- 20:16Speaker 5: Free Thought Society, Margaret Downey, I know what her name is.
- 20:19Speaker 5: Margaret Mary just seems more appropriate. Sorry to my Catholic friends.
- 20:23Speaker 5: So Margaret Downey at the Free Thought Society beat Judge
- 20:29Speaker 5: Moore in Alabama and made the precedential decision that You
- 20:39Speaker 5: can't display the Ten Commandments in these public buildings, courthouses, schools.
- 20:44Speaker 5: So now we have a generation of people who don't
- 20:46Speaker 5: understand thou shalt not murder. They don't get thou shalt
- 20:52Speaker 5: not murder. They don't get thou shalt not bear false
- 20:57Speaker 5: witness against thy neighbor. They don't get that. Covet thy
- 21:01Speaker 5: neighbor's wife. They don't understand that. They don't get the
- 21:04Speaker 5: fact that there's a, We think hell is a space
- 21:08Speaker 5: just for the Hitlers of the world. That there's a
- 21:15Speaker 5: list of things, if you do them, you're going to hell.
- 21:22Speaker 5: And maybe that's what we need to say more as
- 21:24Speaker 5: we look back at a year since they assassinated Charlie Kirk.
- 21:28Speaker 5: And we have a great affiliate in St. George, Utah. Utah.
- 21:33Speaker 5: I think it's KDXU. I'm not looking at my list
- 21:35Speaker 5: right now. Apologies. Kind of standing out here in a field. Well,
- 21:39Speaker 5: I'm over-dramatizing it. I'm standing in a visitor center next
- 21:44Speaker 5: to a field here in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. But on this
- 21:47Speaker 5: one-year anniversary of Charlie doing what Charlie did, debating people
- 21:52Speaker 5: and taking their ideas and turning them back on themselves
- 21:57Speaker 5: and convincing them they were wrong. So they killed him.
- 22:03Speaker 8: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 22:08Speaker 8: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch, and nitric
- 22:13Speaker 8: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 22:17Speaker 8: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 22:22Speaker 8: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
- 22:27Speaker 8: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 22:32Speaker 8: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 22:35Speaker 8: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,

- 24:04Speaker 8: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:13Speaker 8: I'm Dr.
- 24:13Speaker 4: Mitch.
- 24:14Speaker 8: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 24:20Speaker 8: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 24:24Speaker 8: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 24:28Speaker 8: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 24:33Speaker 8: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 24:39Speaker 8: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 24:43Speaker 8: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 24:47Speaker 8: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 24:52Speaker 8: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 25:03Speaker 9: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to

- 25:17Speaker 9: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 25:22Speaker 9: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 25:26Speaker 9: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 25:30Speaker 9: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 25:34Speaker 9: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 25:38Speaker 9: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,

- 25:55Speaker 11: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 25:57Speaker 4: Oh, yeah?
- 25:57Speaker 5: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 26:00Speaker 14: And now a speech. I just want to say that
- 26:04Speaker 14: friendship is about heart.
- 26:06Speaker 19: Heart and brain.
- 26:08Speaker 5: Who's with me?
- 26:09Speaker 13: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 26:11Speaker 15: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 26:14Speaker 15: somebody call me a ride.
- 26:15Speaker 11: Love that guy.
- 26:16Speaker 14: Me too.
- 26:17Speaker 16: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 26:20Speaker 16: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 26:24Speaker 17: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 26:26Speaker 17: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 26:30Speaker 17: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 26:34Speaker 17: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 26:37Speaker 17: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 26:41Speaker 17: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 26:46Speaker 17: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 26:49Speaker 17: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulations. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 17: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 17: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 26:59Speaker 17: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 27:03Speaker 17: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 27:06Speaker 17: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 27:09Speaker 17: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

- 27:37Speaker 20: a brother like you.
- 27:39Speaker 1: Lucky?
- 27:40Speaker 21: Caring for my brother is far from easy. But he's
- 27:43Speaker 21: a part of me, like my arms and legs, so
- 27:46Speaker 21: I'll be his. No time for tired. Nothing can disable
- 27:49Speaker 21: this love. He needs me, but I'm the lucky one,

- 28:41Speaker 1: Here is the sound of thousands of sounds. First thing today.
- 28:45Speaker 2: By Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 28:50Speaker 4: I know I said I love you.
- 28:53Speaker 2: I know you know it's true.
- 28:54Speaker 11: I've got to put.
- 28:56Speaker 4: The phone down. You do up without me. One standing
- 28:59Speaker 4: in the highway. Two more at the door.
- 29:06Speaker 3: You know, I may steal an idea.
- 29:21Speaker 5: What is it Bob Ross taught us? It's not a mistake.
- 29:25Speaker 5: It's a happy accident. But just the thought there, because
- 29:29Speaker 5: of the way our clocks work here on First Thing Today...
- 29:34Speaker 5: We are not going to be on the air at 8. 8.42 a.m.
- 29:44Speaker 5: We will be, no, actually, you know, check that. I
- 29:47Speaker 5: think we will. So we'll be able to take the
- 29:49Speaker 5: moment of silence at that moment when the first plane hit.
- 29:57Speaker 5: And check the times and everything because we usually hit
- 30:00Speaker 5: the break at 44. So I just want to, you know,
- 30:02Speaker 5: basically all this that you're like, why do we care, Joe? Here,
- 30:08Speaker 5: that moment of silence at the beginning of this segment
- 30:11Speaker 5: made me think, hey, we could just do that. It's
- 30:14Speaker 5: a moment of silence in memory of the passengers of
- 30:17Speaker 5: Flight 93. We're going to visit with the National Park
- 30:22Speaker 5: Service chief of this facility. We're going to talk about
- 30:27Speaker 5: its place in history, why they've got a great lineup
- 30:30Speaker 5: of stuff beginning tomorrow. They have not announced a lot
- 30:34Speaker 5: of the speakers. However, noting John Fetterman's location when he
- 30:40Speaker 5: addressed the RNC convention yesterday. And he said about a
- 30:46Speaker 5: week and a half ago, I'm not going to become
- 30:49Speaker 5: a Republican. But he was there to introduce Senator McCormick.
- 30:53Speaker 5: who is a Republican, to his speech. And he was
- 30:58Speaker 5: here in western Pennsylvania. So there's discussion, you know, Governor Shapiro,
- 31:05Speaker 5: Senator Fetterman. They've said that Senator McCormick is heading back
- 31:10Speaker 5: as well to address the folks here. Tomorrow at the
- 31:16Speaker 5: ceremonies begin around 830. here at the Flight 93 Memorial
- 31:23Speaker 5: in Shanksville. If you're coming in, I think there's going
- 31:26Speaker 5: to be a web stream at the National Park Service website,
- 31:29Speaker 5: but it all begins tomorrow at about 8.30. We'll talk
- 31:34Speaker 5: about some of those ceremonies and everything else with the
- 31:36Speaker 5: park chief. Jim Wood is going to join us, one
- 31:41Speaker 5: of the great self-defense gurus, and talk about the idea
- 31:45Speaker 5: of see something, do something. And he and I were
- 31:49Speaker 5: discussing this beforehand. And he said, you know, it's prickly.
- 31:56Speaker 5: And I said, I get it. I get it. Every
- 31:58Speaker 5: time we talk about Flight 93, and I think it's
- 32:00Speaker 5: part of the reason the gaslighters don't want the media
- 32:03Speaker 5: coming to, and we have tons of media here today.
- 32:06Speaker 5: I thought I was going to be it. Silly me.
- 32:09Speaker 5: We've got TV stations and radio stations from all over
- 32:12Speaker 5: the place, which makes me feel better. It makes me
- 32:14Speaker 5: feel like the park police aren't going to come and
- 32:16Speaker 5: kick me out. But they don't want you talking about
- 32:23Speaker 5: Flight 93. And I think they use the excuse, well,
- 32:29Speaker 5: the other people on the other planes are just as
- 32:32Speaker 5: heroic as certainly the first responders and all the people
- 32:36Speaker 5: who once the planes hit the Trade Center towers and
- 32:40Speaker 5: the Pentagon that worked through hell and high water to
- 32:44Speaker 5: help get people out. and to rescue people, all just
- 32:49Speaker 5: as heroic. And they're talking about building a September 11th
- 32:54Speaker 5: memorial at the Pentagon, because obviously you rebuild the Pentagon
- 32:59Speaker 5: and you get back to work in there. But the
- 33:05Speaker 5: idea that this group of people are more or less,
- 33:09Speaker 5: I just point to this group because they did something
- 33:13Speaker 5: uniquely American, which is we have no training, we have
- 33:17Speaker 5: no uniforms, we have no weaponry. We're going to fight back, though.
- 33:27Speaker 5: And if you think back to the farmers and the
- 33:30Speaker 5: blacksmiths and the business owners who took up arms in 1776,
- 33:35Speaker 5: 250 years ago, They did the same thing. Ironically, before 2001,
- 33:52Speaker 5: September 11th' s place in history was in one of the
- 33:56Speaker 5: worst defeats the American Revolutionary Army had. George Washington's troops
- 34:01Speaker 5: were routed in the Battle of Brandywine, just on the
- 34:04Speaker 5: other side of this state from where we are right now.
- 34:08Speaker 5: But the.
- 34:13Speaker 5: The heroism that went on display on September 11th, whether
- 34:16Speaker 5: it be the people who are running into burning buildings,
- 34:20Speaker 5: collapsing buildings, trying to get people out. You know, 110-story
- 34:26Speaker 5: buildings with no electricity, trying to get people down staircases,
- 34:31Speaker 5: trying to get people up staircases. It cannot be left...
- 34:39Speaker 5: unappreciated for those and maybe what we do today and
- 34:43Speaker 5: tomorrow helps those people charlie kirk's age who never really
- 34:54Speaker 5: experienced what it was like to have your security taken
- 35:01Speaker 5: from you and we and we played role-playing games with
- 35:04Speaker 5: covid that's That was a bioterror attack, and I think
- 35:08Speaker 5: it's equally notable that I think we should approach what
- 35:11Speaker 5: happened with SARS-CoV-2 in the same way we look back
- 35:15Speaker 5: at what happened on September 11th. The bioterror attack was
- 35:23Speaker 5: in a different fashion, but terror as an abstract, as
- 35:28Speaker 5: a political machine, takes one particular important thing. It has to,
- 35:35Speaker 5: in order to work, turn the things your opponent holds
- 35:42Speaker 5: dear and weaponizes it against them. So September 11th, it's
- 35:50Speaker 5: our government buildings, our tall skyscrapers, our traveling around the world,
- 35:58Speaker 5: our air travel, all these things that we held dear.
- 36:04Speaker 5: When the bioweapon was released on us in 2020, it
- 36:10Speaker 5: was your neighbors. We were already halfway into a morass
- 36:15Speaker 5: of isolationism anyway. Think about 2018. Think about 2019. We
- 36:22Speaker 5: already were discussing how do we fix a generation that
- 36:27Speaker 5: silos itself off in its own chat rooms and to
- 36:31Speaker 5: its own circle of friends who, in many cases, they
- 36:34Speaker 5: never interact with in person. And SARS-CoV-2 took that and
- 36:44Speaker 5: weaponized it against us. It told us that the worst,
- 36:51Speaker 5: most dangerous thing in your community is your neighbor. How
- 36:57Speaker 5: are you going to beat a free society You keep
- 36:59Speaker 5: them from talking to each other. That's one way. And
- 37:02Speaker 5: I think the majority of us have come out from
- 37:05Speaker 5: behind the woke mask. But I still see so many
- 37:10Speaker 5: folks who think, first off, think wearing a woke mask
- 37:14Speaker 5: protects them somehow from COVID. And of course, that misunderstanding
- 37:21Speaker 5: of what wearing the woke mask does anyway, then leads
- 37:25Speaker 5: you to say, and you're walking by yourself along the
- 37:27Speaker 5: side of a road. With a woke mask on, who
- 37:30Speaker 5: are you protecting? But, of course, they don't think the
- 37:33Speaker 5: woke mask is to protect someone else. Again, part of
- 37:39Speaker 5: the gaslighting and the inaccurate journalism that takes place all
- 37:44Speaker 5: around the place. But here on the Flight 93 Memorial,
- 37:48Speaker 5: we're just starting to see the inklings of some sunrise.
- 37:51Speaker 5: Maybe we'll get some pictures, post them up to our
- 37:54Speaker 5: social media page. Seville, Joe Thomas is where you find us.

- 40:03Speaker 14: You were strolling along in goodwill when just past that
- 40:06Speaker 14: mid-century side table and denim jacket you spotted them nestled
- 40:09Speaker 14: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.
- 40:14Speaker 1: Oh, yes!

- 40:17Speaker 14: Your favorite half-breakfast pastry, half-all-day dessert food, made into your

- 40:58Speaker 13: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
- 41:03Speaker 13: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 13: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 13: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 13: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:22Speaker 13: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 13: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:28Speaker 13: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:33Speaker 13: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 41:37Speaker 13: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

- 44:45Speaker 5: In a world where Hamas is a marginalized community, where
- 44:53Speaker 5: Iran is the poor misunderstood victim, where we've rewritten the
- 45:00Speaker 5: histories of Darth Vader and the Joker and Lucifer, Yeah, Lucifer.
- 45:10Speaker 5: And I don't know if it's just a problem with
- 45:14Speaker 5: human nature or if it's one of the good things
- 45:17Speaker 5: in human nature that gets us in trouble. We're trusting
- 45:24Speaker 5: souls and then we get scammed. We want to think
- 45:29Speaker 5: of the best of people and we forget sometimes that
- 45:33Speaker 5: the devil wins. And especially when you rewrite Lucifer, well then,
- 45:39Speaker 5: now you're just begging to recast evil. And I know
- 45:47Speaker 5: that our beliefs tell us to be forgiveness. Maybe we
- 45:53Speaker 5: need forgiveness, but maybe not so much forgetness. I mean,
- 45:58Speaker 5: everything has been rewritten short of the shark in Jaws.
- 46:02Speaker 5: Although I think the third Jaws movie they tried to
- 46:05Speaker 5: Make it out like it was our fault, just like Godzilla.
- 46:08Speaker 5: It's always our fault. It's always your fault. This is
- 46:12Speaker 5: why I say we come to you live from the
- 46:13Speaker 5: gaslit streets of America, because it's always your fault. The
- 46:18Speaker 5: abusing spouse always tells you it's your fault. Why do
- 46:24Speaker 5: you make me do this to you? Why do you
- 46:27Speaker 5: make the world do this to you? And that's... what
- 46:33Speaker 5: they want you to turn to the authoritarians, the supposedly sanctified,
- 46:39Speaker 5: purified leaders. We threw that off 250 years ago, the
- 46:45Speaker 5: idea of that. But we didn't throw off the idea
- 46:48Speaker 5: that we're flawed people, that we have the ability to
- 46:53Speaker 5: be corrupted just as much as somebody in power. This
- 46:57Speaker 5: is why we didn't want to centralize power. But as
- 47:03Speaker 5: we gather here, Charlie Kirk's one-year anniversary of his assassination
- 47:09Speaker 5: and preparing for the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks,
- 47:16Speaker 5: you have to do your digging. You have to go
- 47:18Speaker 5: dig your stuff up because there are people who will
- 47:22Speaker 5: only tell you part of the story because they want
- 47:25Speaker 5: you to follow them. They want you to do what
- 47:29Speaker 5: they say. They won't tell you the hard fact, which
- 47:34Speaker 5: is you and me, we've got to figure it out
- 47:37Speaker 5: for ourselves. It's not somebody else's fault. It's always great
- 47:41Speaker 5: to feel that way. I didn't mess up. It was
- 47:45Speaker 5: because of, I mean, we all spent our childhood in
- 47:49Speaker 5: varying degrees of some, my fault. It was, and hopefully
- 47:53Speaker 5: your parents like mine, you know, in some way, shape
- 47:55Speaker 5: or form made it clear to you that that's not
- 47:58Speaker 5: how things are. We are some of our choices. and
- 48:02Speaker 5: our actions. So what do you do? How do you
- 48:09Speaker 5: get information? Well, you get it. You actually, this is
- 48:12Speaker 5: the irony, is that part of this gaslighting media is
- 48:17Speaker 5: designed to make you not look into the media for stuff.
- 48:23Speaker 5: They want you to be more isolated. They want you
- 48:25Speaker 5: to go unplug more, and hide in the basement more,
- 48:29Speaker 5: and not, let's see, I You actually have to do more.
- 48:32Speaker 5: You have to say, huh, that's an interesting story. Let
- 48:35Speaker 5: me see if I can dig into that. And if
- 48:38Speaker 5: the only source material is the original source you heard
- 48:41Speaker 5: it from, look at it with a jaundiced eye. Don't
- 48:45Speaker 5: believe it. If only one person is saying it, don't
- 48:49Speaker 5: believe it just because one person. I don't care if
- 48:51Speaker 5: it's me. Even if I'm the one person telling you
- 48:54Speaker 5: this or saying something to you, it doesn't make a difference.
- 49:00Speaker 5: You've got to dig in. You've got to go and
- 49:03Speaker 5: try to go the next, the second mile. Go further.
- 49:13Speaker 5: Because they want you to believe them. They want you
- 49:16Speaker 5: to follow them. They don't want you thinking for yourself.
- 49:19Speaker 5: They don't want you realizing that, like the passengers of
- 49:23Speaker 5: Flight 93, you can do something for yourself. Like the
- 49:29Speaker 5: patrons of the Bataclan in Paris, when the terrorists took
- 49:33Speaker 5: over there and started killing people during a Friday or
- 49:38Speaker 5: Saturday night concert. They didn't have guns. They didn't have weapons.
- 49:43Speaker 5: The bad guys had guns and weapons. People start hitting
- 49:46Speaker 5: the bad guys with chairs, knocking them down. That's the
- 49:55Speaker 5: essence of bravery, but it's brave just to fly in
- 49:58Speaker 5: the face of dogma, too. If everyone is out there
- 50:02Speaker 5: telling you the sky is falling, check. As I think
- 50:09Speaker 5: we detailed here, The whole chicken little story is meant
- 50:15Speaker 5: to remind you of what happens, the boy who cried wolf,
- 50:19Speaker 5: if you prefer that one. Because eventually the wolf does
- 50:22Speaker 5: show up. And the more you get gaslit into not
- 50:25Speaker 5: looking into your own individuality and your own ability to
- 50:29Speaker 5: take care of yourself, then the wolf's going to win.
- 50:35Speaker 5: The wolf's going to win. And that's not what I'm
- 50:37Speaker 5: here for. So lots more to get into. As we
- 50:41Speaker 5: are here prepping, as I mentioned, next hour we're going
- 50:44Speaker 5: to be visited with the chief of this facility, the
- 50:48Speaker 5: Flight 93 Memorial, all brought to you by Big Ridge
- 50:52Speaker 5: Guns and Archery, BigRidgeGuns.com, as well as our friends from
- 50:57Speaker 5: the Heritage Guide, two historic sites. This is a national park.
- 51:04Speaker 5: They're talking about places like Montpelier and Mount Vernon and
- 51:08Speaker 5: places like that. When they talk about the historic sites.
- 51:15Speaker 5: And if they hit you and bury you under woke
- 51:17Speaker 5: when you get there. I want to spend some time
- 51:19Speaker 5: on the census. And if there's an exemplar story to
- 51:25Speaker 5: what I was just opening with. The left has lost
- 51:29Speaker 5: bowel control over the idea of the census just counting citizens.
- 51:38Speaker 4: And.
- 51:39Speaker 5: Half the population is like, yeah, why are you only
- 51:41Speaker 5: counting citizens in your census?
- 51:43Speaker 1: The hell?
- 51:44Speaker 5: Next thing you know, you're going to tell us you
- 51:46Speaker 5: only want citizens voting. What a thing. What fascism. What tyranny.
- 51:56Speaker 5: This is the fruit of the gaslighting. And if you
- 52:04Speaker 5: are an ardent listener of this program, you heard several
- 52:08Speaker 5: weeks back, Our friend Tom Drops Bombs tell us, he's like,
- 52:12Speaker 5: Iranians have a calendar, JT. I think it was, if
- 52:15Speaker 5: I paraphrase, Iranians have a calendar. They know when the
- 52:18Speaker 5: midterm's on. President Trump basically said the same thing yesterday.
- 52:23Speaker 5: The Iranians are trying to run out the clock on
- 52:25Speaker 5: the midterms. So what do you do to those midterms?
- 52:30Speaker 5: We'll get into that coming up as well. Live from Shanksville,
- 52:33Speaker 5: Pennsylvania at the Flight 93 Memorial Ceremony. I'm looking around.
- 52:37Speaker 5: There's some TV, but I don't think any other radio
- 52:40Speaker 5: is out here. Of course, there's very little live radio
- 52:42Speaker 5: in the morning anymore. Anyway, it's just you and me.
- 52:46Speaker 5: We're going to have to run this thing on first
- 52:48Speaker 5: thing today.

- 52:54Speaker 11: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
