M and M EXTRA 07.28.26 | Graham Funeral, Fauci’s Destiny, Earpiece Adventures · The M&M Experience

0:01
Speaker 1: Welcome to a meeting of the minds crafted from decades
0:05
Speaker 1: of talk show experience, an extension of the magic they've
0:08
Speaker 1: created together on radio in the phenomenon called M and
0:13
Speaker 1: M Hot Topics in the News and Wisdom from Life.
0:16
Speaker 1: It's Mark Davis and Mike Gallagher. This is eminem Extra.
0:22
Speaker 2: For a Tuesday, the twenty eighth day of July. I'm
0:26
Speaker 2: one of the m's, Mark Davison, Texas. The other M
0:28
Speaker 2: is Mike Gallagher. He's in New York. Yesterday's in Florida.
0:31
Speaker 2: Now we're going to South Carolina in a minute with
0:33
Speaker 2: a great Joey Hudson covering the Lindsay Graham funeral.
0:36
Speaker 3: No progress, time out, time out, We're going to DC.
0:40
Speaker 3: We had a little bit, yeah, yeah, yeah, tomorrow tomorrow.
0:44
Speaker 3: Things at these funerals, they take a whole lot of time.
0:47
Speaker 3: Have you been watching some of the imagery of Lindsay's
0:52
Speaker 3: I started the show this morning and I asked listeners,
0:56
Speaker 3: I'll ask you, have you found yourself in the past
0:58
Speaker 3: few days having to remind yourself that Linda Graham died.
1:02
Speaker 3: It's like, well, good lord, he actually died. We'll never
1:04
Speaker 3: see him on Meet the Press again. He's he's gone.
1:07
Speaker 3: It's just an It's just he was such a fixture,
1:10
Speaker 3: like in the every two three days we'd have something
1:12
Speaker 3: Lindsey related, and it's just very weird and it's an
1:15
Speaker 3: odd void that he is. Well. It's kind of a
1:17
Speaker 3: sign of the times that a Fox News Channel personality,
1:21
Speaker 3: Sean Hannity is going to be one of his speakers
1:24
Speaker 3: at his eulogy today because he popped up on Shawn's
1:28
Speaker 3: Show a Lot. It was almost they were going to
1:31
Speaker 3: I always joked that they were going to re christen
1:34
Speaker 3: the show in the in the spirit of Hannity and Colmes,
1:38
Speaker 3: Hannity and Graham because Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on on
1:43
Speaker 3: on Seawn's Show a Lot. President Trump is scheduled to speak,
1:47
Speaker 3: and our own Joey Hudson is going to be in attendance. Mark,
1:50
Speaker 3: this is a monumental day in the short new history
1:55
Speaker 3: of eminem Extra. We're going to bring our first guest
2:00
Speaker 3: into the podcast. I mean, Mark, this this is and look,
2:03
Speaker 3: the audience needs to know. You got to run these
2:06
Speaker 3: things by Mark Well in advance. I mean, his man
2:09
Speaker 3: is very very particular about how we do this. So
2:13
Speaker 3: this is a big deal to bring my pal Joey
2:16
Speaker 3: Hudson into the mix today. But he's mark. He's at
2:18
Speaker 3: National Cathedral in Washington, d C. Where you know, Senator
2:23
Speaker 3: Graham is going to be memorialized today by anyboy.
2:26
Speaker 2: I'm ready anytime you are. And then I got a
2:28
Speaker 2: couple of observations about what we've seen, what we will
2:30
Speaker 2: see yet to unfold an answer. National Cathedral is a
2:33
Speaker 2: is a historic place. That Capitol Rotunda a historic place.
2:37
Speaker 2: In fact, let me set up for sixty seconds. Well,
2:40
Speaker 2: we'll bring joe in from from that. I saw him
2:42
Speaker 2: on with you on the radio, in fact, on the
2:44
Speaker 2: Salem News Channel feed. Lindsey Graham's casket flag drate casket
2:48
Speaker 2: sits on that you see, You know that black rectangular
2:51
Speaker 2: platform that a casket sits in that is called there's
2:54
Speaker 2: a name for that. It is called a catafalic c
2:57
Speaker 2: A T a f a l que. Little word that's
3:00
Speaker 2: never used except for moments like this, and that particular
3:04
Speaker 2: one is one they've used a lot. It was hastily
3:08
Speaker 2: put together for Abraham Lincoln. Why it is the Lincoln cataflic.
3:13
Speaker 2: It's been used for presidents and other dignitaries. Fence with
3:16
Speaker 2: a of lane and state. And that's the very same
3:18
Speaker 2: one from from Lo those many years ago, and so
3:22
Speaker 2: is Rotunda and now National Cathedral and the state of
3:25
Speaker 2: South Carolina that you and certainly Joey know well because
3:28
Speaker 2: he has traveled from South Carolina to Washington to it
3:32
Speaker 2: two joint areas. To split it up, split it up
3:35
Speaker 2: into a three way thing. I just need to see
3:37
Speaker 2: what this looks like visually here as we try to
3:39
Speaker 2: here we go.
3:40
Speaker 3: Let's let's bring Joey what this is the boy little
3:44
Speaker 3: drum roll, first guest on the podcast, Joey Hudson outside
3:47
Speaker 3: of the National Cathedral. And now, Joey, you you did
3:50
Speaker 3: hear from the from Mark's rather verbose intro, he didn't
3:55
Speaker 3: get the memo we got to get you in quick
3:57
Speaker 3: and get out because you're in line and you got
3:59
Speaker 3: to quickly get in to get your seat. But you
4:01
Speaker 3: know Mark, Mark is, he is a man of many words.
4:05
Speaker 2: Just stop it, Joey. Great to see you and literally
4:07
Speaker 2: see there at the foot of the National Cathedral. What
4:10
Speaker 2: a morning it's been.
4:12
Speaker 4: Well that for sure. First, let me just say what
4:15
Speaker 4: an honor it is to be on M and M
4:17
Speaker 4: extra and to know that I'm the first guest. I mean, wow,
4:20
Speaker 4: I've made it in broadcasting now to be able to
4:22
Speaker 4: build deal.
4:23
Speaker 3: So the check and the check and the check is
4:25
Speaker 3: in the mail. I mean Mark is handling the paperwork
4:28
Speaker 3: on that. But we'll get that off to you because
4:30
Speaker 3: it's a hefty feet it's not it's not. We don't
4:32
Speaker 3: do this cheaply.
4:33
Speaker 4: This.
4:33
Speaker 3: We don't do this on the cheap, do we, Mark,
4:35
Speaker 3: And we don't welcome just anybody.
4:37
Speaker 4: So the bar, well, it's an honor to be with you,
4:41
Speaker 4: for sure.
4:42
Speaker 3: Thanks, and Mark is right. What a morning so far?
4:45
Speaker 3: His his remains. I always get this wrong. Mark wll
4:48
Speaker 3: correct me. Lion state or lay in state?
4:51
Speaker 2: Lion state Lie Lie is present tense. Yesterday he lay
4:56
Speaker 2: in state and people have lane.
4:58
Speaker 3: Lane okay, but today he was he well, today he
5:02
Speaker 3: lay in state in.
5:04
Speaker 2: Today he lies.
5:05
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, he's not lying anymore. They moved in so
5:09
Speaker 3: now they say he is now he lay he previously.
5:15
Speaker 2: The Capitol rotunda exactly.
5:17
Speaker 3: Oh, listen to the bells. Listen to that. That sounds cool, Joey.
5:19
Speaker 3: Those are the bells are peeling at the National Theater.
5:22
Speaker 3: Let's all, let's all stop for a minute, listenpe I
5:26
Speaker 3: think he froze first. They stopped the bells stopped right
5:29
Speaker 3: when because they heard they're they're watching the podcast, and
5:32
Speaker 3: they stopped the bells right when I said, let's let's
5:35
Speaker 3: let's listen to the bells.
5:37
Speaker 2: Well, Joey, let me ask quite obviously, for anything like this,
5:39
Speaker 2: what what's going to unfold is going to be a
5:41
Speaker 2: lot of tributes, a lot of words. What you've experienced
5:45
Speaker 2: in standing right there, I can only think of the
5:47
Speaker 2: logistics of actually having this thing happen. It's a building
5:50
Speaker 2: where President Trump is going to be if he's not already.
5:54
Speaker 2: What was security like, what's the perimeter like? Just what's
5:56
Speaker 2: it like to be there?
5:57
Speaker 4: Well, as I talked about it, just observed all morning.
6:01
Speaker 4: I got here pretty early this morning, and you know,
6:04
Speaker 4: this is like any event where the president was going
6:06
Speaker 4: to be. The security preimeter has set up several blocks
6:10
Speaker 4: away from the cathedral, and a lot of the guests
6:14
Speaker 4: who were here were lined up just after eight a m.
6:17
Speaker 2: This morning.
6:17
Speaker 4: Now, they did not actually open into eleven to start
6:20
Speaker 4: letting people in, but there was a long line waiting
6:23
Speaker 4: for that to open up. And you can kind of
6:26
Speaker 4: see behind me as people are starting to come in.
6:28
Speaker 4: The bulk of the people are already inside because they
6:30
Speaker 4: did get here early and they wanted to get through security,
6:33
Speaker 4: but there's large fences all around the area. Traffic was
6:37
Speaker 4: horrible this morning trying to get here because the uber
6:41
Speaker 4: driver wasn't expecting some of the roads to be closed.
6:43
Speaker 4: But it's like anything where you have heads of state
6:47
Speaker 4: gathering in one place, and it's been something to watch
6:49
Speaker 4: for sure.
6:52
Speaker 2: And Yahoo, you got the Zelenski Trump and I'll get
6:56
Speaker 2: American dignitaries as well. So I can only presume this
6:59
Speaker 2: is going to be quite question.
7:00
Speaker 3: And a big contingent from South Carolina.
7:03
Speaker 4: Joey, Yes, a lot of people from South Carolina. And
7:06
Speaker 4: I'd like to go back to something Mark you said
7:08
Speaker 4: just a minute ago, how it's just surreal to think
7:11
Speaker 4: about that we do not have Lindsey Graham with us anymore.
7:14
Speaker 4: A lot of the people that I have seen here
7:16
Speaker 4: this morning, just a few weeks ago we were talking
7:19
Speaker 4: about his campaign and getting to the primary, which he
7:22
Speaker 4: won handily in June, and talking about November and winning
7:26
Speaker 4: in November. The last time I interviewed Senator Graham was
7:29
Speaker 4: just a few weeks before primary and he talked with
7:31
Speaker 4: me about how excited he was to become a chairman
7:35
Speaker 4: of the Judiciary Committee again and getting conservative judges on
7:38
Speaker 4: the bench. So it's very surreal that we are now
7:40
Speaker 4: at the National Cathedral to pay our respects and to
7:43
Speaker 4: remember Lindsey Graham.
7:46
Speaker 2: Cherish every day because you just never know what's what's
7:48
Speaker 2: going to happen. You know, Mike knows South Carolina and
7:52
Speaker 2: his roots in South Carolina. I've paid attention to it
7:54
Speaker 2: for a long time. Joe, you are a voice in
7:57
Speaker 2: South Carolina. I want to value in a remaining minutes,
8:01
Speaker 2: can I just ask you something? I mean, I know,
8:02
Speaker 2: here's the occasion where we're all thinking about Lindsay paying
8:05
Speaker 2: tribute to him. The whole show moves to South Carolina
8:08
Speaker 2: for him to be laid to rest tomorrow, and in
8:10
Speaker 2: returning to the state, you'll return to a state that
8:13
Speaker 2: has to move pretty darn quickly to replace him. Now,
8:16
Speaker 2: Mike and I have talked about this, but you're spending
8:19
Speaker 2: time on the ground obviously every day as a South Carolinian.
8:22
Speaker 2: How is the whole Darlene thing going? Everybody our hearts
8:26
Speaker 2: bleed for her, we pray for her, we lift her up,
8:29
Speaker 2: But how's the whole Hey, I want the whole six
8:32
Speaker 2: year terms. Suddenly she leads momentarily in the polls with
8:36
Speaker 2: like in the twenties, but other people are right behind her.
8:38
Speaker 2: It looks like a runoff seems guaranteed with Ralph Norman,
8:41
Speaker 2: Russell Frye, others. Just what does the landscape look like
8:47
Speaker 2: with the primary just a couple of weeks away.
8:49
Speaker 4: Well, when Senator Darlene Graham filed for a full term
8:54
Speaker 4: on Friday, it was the first time that she really
8:57
Speaker 4: talked with the press, and that was very brief, and
8:59
Speaker 4: she asked for grace as she remembers and honors and
9:02
Speaker 4: lays her brother to rest this week. But look, things
9:06
Speaker 4: are going to get started. They're going to get started quickly.
9:08
Speaker 4: Next Monday is the first televised debate that is sanctioned
9:12
Speaker 4: by the South Carolina GOP. Then two weeks later there'll
9:17
Speaker 4: be other for them. So you know, quickly she's going
9:19
Speaker 4: to have to come out and start campaigning. You reference
9:21
Speaker 4: the poll that was released yesterday. She did have just
9:25
Speaker 4: over twenty percent in that Ralph woman second with just
9:28
Speaker 4: over sixteen percent. Interesting, Mike, my friend and yours Lieutenant Governor.
9:32
Speaker 4: Pamela Evatt was third in that poll. Although she has
9:35
Speaker 4: not announced whether she's running, most likely will not, as
9:39
Speaker 4: in the filing period literally is closing right now as
9:43
Speaker 4: we speak. I expect to see her in there some
9:46
Speaker 4: of the others. Mark Sandford, former governor, he was down
9:49
Speaker 4: the list with just over seven percent. But the interesting
9:52
Speaker 4: thing is with that Sandford had the largest negative rating.
9:57
Speaker 4: He had over thirty percent of people who and you
10:00
Speaker 4: when you talked about Mark Sandford, dey buted him negatively.
10:04
Speaker 4: Now Darlen Graham, they viewed her very positively, but there
10:08
Speaker 4: was a thirty percent percentage of folks who just say,
10:12
Speaker 4: I do not know her. I want to learn more
10:14
Speaker 4: about her. I want to know how she stands on
10:16
Speaker 4: the positions. Then I'll decide if in fact i'll cast
10:19
Speaker 4: my vote. So that's going to be the challenge, and
10:21
Speaker 4: I suspect over the coming weeks we're going to be
10:23
Speaker 4: introduced to Darlen Graham by with a lot of media,
10:26
Speaker 4: a lot of social media, a lot of TV ads,
10:29
Speaker 4: a lot of radio ads. Because although it'll be tough
10:33
Speaker 4: for her to raise a lot of money quickly, there
10:35
Speaker 4: are a lot of superpacks out there. I support. We'll
10:37
Speaker 4: get behind her.
10:38
Speaker 3: Well, Joey, I know you got to scramble to get
10:40
Speaker 3: in and get your seat of the National Cathedral. We
10:42
Speaker 3: appreciate very much you checking in. As the bells are
10:45
Speaker 3: peeling in the background and they congratulations on being the
10:49
Speaker 3: very first M and M Extra podcast.
10:51
Speaker 2: Top that, everybody, top that joy, Thank you, safe travels.
10:56
Speaker 3: All right, thank you guys. Thanks Joey, appreciate it so much.
11:00
Speaker 3: That's pretty good. Kind of neat to have our first guest, and.
11:03
Speaker 2: Well he needed is just he fired up his iPhone
11:07
Speaker 2: in front of his face and boom, you're on the show.
11:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not hard. I mean, it's it's a little technology,
11:12
Speaker 3: a little trickier these days than it used to be.
11:14
Speaker 3: But hey, there's a technology in. One of our newest
11:17
Speaker 3: sponsors here on the M and M Extra is Echel

12:02
Speaker 2: freaking out your nine year old or having mom and
12:04

Speaker 2: day two of your Relief Factor usage? Right? I know,
12:59
Speaker 2: so I've got the packets, got everything. It's the easiest
13:01
Speaker 2: thing in the world if there's any kind of supplement
13:03
Speaker 2: that you're going to do in Relief Factor is about
13:05
Speaker 2: these little aches and pains that you just think are
13:07
Speaker 2: a part of life. Hey, maybe not. I've heard about
13:10
Speaker 2: relief Factor for only about one hundred years. I mean
13:12
Speaker 2: I've been at Salem forever and everybody's doing Relief Factor spots,
13:16
Speaker 2: and I thought, Okay, I don't really have a pain
13:18
Speaker 2: issue to speak of. And then a couple of years ago,
13:21
Speaker 2: just throwing the tennis balls with the dogs in the backyard.
13:25
Speaker 2: You know, my major league pitching release is not what
13:28
Speaker 2: it once was, and there's a little rotator cuff hitch
13:31
Speaker 2: and it's not anything that I need to open up
13:33
Speaker 2: and get a shoulder replacement or anything for it, but
13:35
Speaker 2: it's just bugging me. And I thought, wouldn't it be
13:37
Speaker 2: neat if there's something I could take where it wouldn't
13:39
Speaker 2: bug me anymore. So we're gonna find out. We're going
13:42
Speaker 2: to see if relief Factor works for me. I'm going
13:45
Speaker 2: to give it some days here the three week quick start,
13:47
Speaker 2: and I will report reliably back to you and see
13:49
Speaker 2: if I can join the legions of people who have
13:52
Speaker 2: been helped by a relief factor.

14:25
Speaker 3: get Joey kind of in and out because he had
14:27
Speaker 3: he has to the logistics of getting into the cathedral.
14:30
Speaker 3: But I wanted you to continue some of your thoughts
14:32
Speaker 3: about this whole process, and we kind of cut you short.
14:35
Speaker 4: There.
14:36
Speaker 2: No, No, it's okay, as he was, and I was,
14:39
Speaker 2: that's kind of funny. I've always sitting here think about
14:41
Speaker 2: you know, too soon, and I always think about optics
14:43
Speaker 2: standing out in front of it. I mean, the body's
14:45
Speaker 2: scarcely cold. We're asking about, you know, how Darlene and
14:47
Speaker 2: all the other people are going to be doing. But
14:49
Speaker 2: that's that's what people are thinking about. And in thinking
14:52
Speaker 2: about this, I've got a I'm not going to put
14:56
Speaker 2: it rise it to the lofty level of a prediction.
14:59
Speaker 2: Lord knows, that's how these days. But in looking at
15:02
Speaker 2: that poll, and it's just the first of what will
15:04
Speaker 2: be some polls in the coming days, this is moving
15:07
Speaker 2: so quickly, and I love how quickly it's moving. You
15:09
Speaker 2: don't have to wait six months to get an answer
15:12
Speaker 2: to this question. The poll comes out, lots of people
15:15
Speaker 2: in the poll, and Darlene has about twenty some percent,
15:18
Speaker 2: and Ralph Norman, Ralph Norman right behind her. But if
15:22
Speaker 2: you take a look at everybody else, what it really
15:25
Speaker 2: winds up as and there's a lot of I don't
15:27
Speaker 2: know and undecided. I think that if the primary, which
15:31
Speaker 2: is August eleventh, I think it's going to come down
15:34
Speaker 2: to kind of a referendum on Darlene in a way.
15:36
Speaker 2: And by that I mean the voters are going to
15:38
Speaker 2: be asked, do you or do you not want Lindsey's sister.
15:42
Speaker 2: They're going to be people who do, and they're going
15:44
Speaker 2: to be people who don't. People who don't have to
15:46
Speaker 2: figure out which other person will be Ralph Norman, Pamelavit
15:49
Speaker 2: if she runs, you know, Mark Sandford, if it really
15:52
Speaker 2: is a Darlene or not Darlene binary choice, I think
15:58
Speaker 2: not Darlene is going to prove and that while it
16:01
Speaker 2: might be one of those runoffs where she ends up
16:03
Speaker 2: with thirty percent and Ralph Norman ends up with you
16:09
Speaker 2: twenty two, but then everybody other than Ralph is gonna lie.
16:14
Speaker 2: Those are people who by definition did not want Darlene,
16:17
Speaker 2: and they're going to wind up backing Ralph or whoever
16:19
Speaker 2: else the second place person is, and she will ultimately
16:22
Speaker 2: not prevail in the runoff on the twenty fifth. Well,
16:25
Speaker 2: my thought based on Earth.
16:26
Speaker 3: There's two lanes and I'm very mindful of the two
16:29
Speaker 3: lanes that kind of go down the highway of life.
16:34
Speaker 3: We got the talk radio podcast active audience lane, and
16:40
Speaker 3: then you got kind of everybody else. Because the most
16:43
Speaker 3: peculiar thing has happened. In all the years I've been
16:46
Speaker 3: doing this, there isn't a day that went by when
16:49
Speaker 3: I wouldn't get blasted for even talking about Lindsey Graham.
16:52
Speaker 3: The hate, the disagreement from South Carolinians. Now bear in mind,
16:58
Speaker 3: the people who disagreed with him, they felt that he
17:00
Speaker 3: was all about amnesty. They felt that he was, you know,
17:03
Speaker 3: sort of part of the you know, deep state if
17:06
Speaker 3: you will. They But yet every single time he was
17:11
Speaker 3: up for reelection, it was a landslide. It wasn't even close.
17:15
Speaker 3: Nobody has ever successfully mounted a challenge over the years
17:19
Speaker 3: against Senator Lindsay Graham. So there we go to those
17:21
Speaker 3: two lanes. I think we're a little bit insulated in
17:24
Speaker 3: our world because people tend to be more engaged, more active,
17:29
Speaker 3: more informed. But most people just know Lindsey Graham is
17:33
Speaker 3: our senator, and they they stuck by him through thick
17:37
Speaker 3: and thin, and I and you could be right, on
17:40
Speaker 3: the other hand, if that same dynamic applies. Well, most
17:44
Speaker 3: South Carolinians are going to say, Darlene Graham is good
17:48
Speaker 3: enough for us. She's his little sister. She's carrying on
17:52
Speaker 3: his legacy, which, by the way, if you're in our lane,
17:56
Speaker 3: that's not maybe such a great idea if you're not
17:59
Speaker 3: in favor for a forwards or you're not more of
18:01
Speaker 3: a warhawk like Senator Graham was. But if you're in
18:04
Speaker 3: the other lane, where the average you know, I used
18:08
Speaker 3: to use this phrase all the time, and Joe and
18:11
Speaker 3: Mary beer Can of South Carolina. If Joe and Mary
18:14
Speaker 3: beer Can of South Carolina are just saying, hey, I'm
18:16
Speaker 3: going to go vote, pull the lever for Darlene. Maybe
18:20
Speaker 3: she wins. The polls are suggesting Mark that she's going
18:23
Speaker 3: to win.
18:24
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I don't know if coming out
18:26
Speaker 2: coming out first in a poll that contains eight people
18:30
Speaker 2: suggests she's.
18:31
Speaker 3: Going You mean in general?
18:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Well, no, whoever the Republican nominee is is
18:37
Speaker 2: going to win the general in his South Carolina. No
18:39
Speaker 2: Democrat has a chance to be Lindsey Graham's successor. But
18:43
Speaker 2: this is a really high mountain for her to climb.
18:45
Speaker 2: She's going to have to do really great. God, Joe,
18:48
Speaker 2: you mentioned a debate on Monday night voof but she's
18:51
Speaker 2: going to.
18:52
Speaker 3: Be at that debate. I forgot. I didn't I should
18:54
Speaker 3: have followed up. I think she will better. She has
18:57
Speaker 3: not please but Mark. But that's part of the course
19:00
Speaker 3: she has to. But that's part of the problem. I
19:02
Speaker 3: had a caller today say that that Tara, the morning
19:05
Speaker 3: host on our station in South Carolina, said that I
19:09
Speaker 3: don't know if this is true. I tried to track
19:10
Speaker 3: it down, claim that Darlene said, I'm not answering any
19:15
Speaker 3: political questions until next Thursday out of please respect me
19:20
Speaker 3: for my grieving process. Now it just hit me. I
19:23
Speaker 3: wonder if the caller got that confused with maybe this
19:26
Speaker 3: like day after tomorrow.
19:27
Speaker 2: Maybe because if there's a debate, you've got to be
19:29
Speaker 2: there for the debate. And that's kind of Yeah. You
19:31
Speaker 2: mentioned Tara, who I really if I were driving around,
19:33
Speaker 2: I'd be listening to that morning show because she's great
19:36
Speaker 2: and her and her posts are great. She I won't
19:39
Speaker 2: say she does. Nobody dislikes Darlene. It's just no Tara, no, no, no, no, no,
19:44
Speaker 2: Tara didn't like Darlene. Okay, actively doesn't like her or
19:48
Speaker 2: is just hesitant to embrace her as the automatic success.
19:51
Speaker 3: I don't think she likes her well, I mean, I
19:54
Speaker 3: think she's very suspicious and cynical of what whether she's
19:57
Speaker 3: a conservative or not, which is very.
19:59
Speaker 2: Valid, of course, it's very valid.
20:02
Speaker 3: And so we don't know anything about her.
20:04
Speaker 2: No, And that's why there are a lot of people
20:06
Speaker 2: you mentioned in describing the Lindsay phenomenon where you could
20:11
Speaker 2: fill up the phone lines in South Carolina or from
20:14
Speaker 2: South Carolinians on your national talk show with all kinds
20:17
Speaker 2: of people saying, Lindsay's got to go. We're going to
20:19
Speaker 2: primary Lindsay, and they never come close. You know what.
20:22
Speaker 2: That's also called John Cornyn forever until this year, for
20:26
Speaker 2: years and years and years, from two to eight to
20:30
Speaker 2: fourteen to twenty. Well, Mark, this is the year Cornon
20:35
Speaker 2: goes down and said, yep, sure, And because I knew
20:37
Speaker 2: there was never enough people, because you know what, the
20:40
Speaker 2: Mark Davis rule of primaries, nobody's going to succeed in
20:43
Speaker 2: a primary unless there is a desire to fire the incumbent.
20:48
Speaker 2: This year in Texas finally arose the desire to fire
20:52
Speaker 2: John Cornyn. There was never a broad desire to fire
20:55
Speaker 2: Lindsay Graham. I don't know how much of that translates
20:58
Speaker 2: to instant excceps ability of Darlene. I think there's a
21:01
Speaker 2: large number of South Carolinians who've been all in for Lindsey,
21:05
Speaker 2: love Darlene, pray for her, wish her well, but go
21:09
Speaker 2: I don't know when it comes to a full six
21:11
Speaker 2: year two.
21:12
Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna wait and see. You're right, we're weeks
21:14
Speaker 3: away from getting the answer to that question. As we
21:17
Speaker 3: kind of roll along here, lots of lots of comments
21:19
Speaker 3: incidentally on the live in the the chat room, uh
21:23
Speaker 3: and uh, you know Palm Coast Florida checking in and Granbury,
21:27
Speaker 3: Texas is in there, so come on in and join us.
21:30
Speaker 3: The water is fine if you want to chat as
21:32
Speaker 3: you're watching on YouTube. There is a live chat feature
21:36
Speaker 3: that we like and I'm I'm more focused on it
21:39
Speaker 3: than Mark is because I'm.
21:41
Speaker 2: I'm meaning you are the bag attend you do it.
21:44
Speaker 2: I just don't. I sometimes I'll glint. I'm old and
21:47
Speaker 2: I'm blind in my laptop. Well, you got it, and
21:50
Speaker 2: you have an imax.
21:51
Speaker 3: I know I'm watched it. I caught myself last night.
21:54
Speaker 3: You know how long I was scrolling doom scrolling on
21:56
Speaker 3: social media, four and a half hours.
22:00
Speaker 2: To do I know, Mark, take a walk, breathe the
22:02
Speaker 2: aw you're living Florida for.
22:04
Speaker 3: Touch grass, Go walk on the beach. I'm telling you,
22:06
Speaker 3: I got a bobbies man. But then the text are
22:09
Speaker 3: the same way like I watch them, I see what
22:11
Speaker 3: the comments are, and of course I'm also ready to
22:13
Speaker 3: block anybody gets in there, gets out of line. Boom.
22:15
Speaker 2: Well, I love these people. This is fantastic. I love
22:18
Speaker 2: that people are, you know, plugged in and not just
22:20
Speaker 2: watching but engaging. I kind of feel and maybe I'm
22:23
Speaker 2: wrong about this, and maybe this is a question that
22:26
Speaker 2: can be asked to the people there in the sidebar.
22:29
Speaker 2: Are you really trying to get our attention? Because God
22:31
Speaker 2: knows you can get Mikey, No, are you just kind
22:33
Speaker 2: of sort of talking to each other?
22:34
Speaker 3: They're talking to each other because I get I get
22:37
Speaker 3: my feelings hurt every day I check in and I
22:39
Speaker 3: say hi, everybody, I'm here. I'm checking in, and nobody
22:43
Speaker 3: answers me. Nobody responds, they don't care. It's crickets. So no,
22:46
Speaker 3: they're talking to each other. They they they're I guess
22:48
Speaker 3: they're watching and listening to us, but they're commenting to
22:52
Speaker 3: each other because obviously, now maybe if you got in,
22:55
Speaker 3: Oh boy, Mark's in there, you gotta teach you how
22:59
Speaker 3: to we uptown. Now you got to log in, You
23:01
Speaker 3: got to log in and all that. It's a whole
23:04
Speaker 3: it's a whole process. Hey, let's let's take some time
23:07
Speaker 3: Mark to talk about something that I think is a
23:10
Speaker 3: remarkable revelation. Senator Ran Paul did something I didn't expect.
23:16
Speaker 3: He revealed pages of doctor Anthony Fauci's diary. Now, let's
23:22
Speaker 3: walk through that for just a moment before we get
23:24
Speaker 3: to the contents of the die. Huh, that's not I mean,
23:29
Speaker 3: what was it.
23:30
Speaker 2: It's not a it's not a diary like a teenage
23:32
Speaker 2: girl has extemporaneous notes. No, no, it's a journal. He's
23:37
Speaker 2: a government employee, put it on a government server in
23:40
Speaker 2: his government job, and that and that made it available
23:44
Speaker 2: to congressional oversight. And now it's not like we managed
23:47
Speaker 2: to break into Fauci's house and get his most private thoughts,
23:51
Speaker 2: but we sure did get his innermost thoughts. It's bad,
23:53
Speaker 2: aren't they something? It's bad. It's really really bad. The
23:56
Speaker 2: guy was revealed as a total megalomaniac. The guy has
24:00
Speaker 2: been exposed as somebody who is obsessed with his coverage.
24:05
Speaker 2: And let's take a little look Graby and our friends
24:08
Speaker 2: with Graby and put together a montage of what it
24:11
Speaker 2: sounded and looked like when Anthony Fauci was making the
24:15
Speaker 2: media rounds as a mister, don't deny me. I'm the science.
24:20
Speaker 2: Mister science, I am the science. To deny me, as
24:22
Speaker 2: to deny so here he is.
24:24
Speaker 3: This is what the media did, and I would submit
24:27
Speaker 3: as you hear and watch this, the media is every
24:30
Speaker 3: bit is incomplicit as the of the scoundrel that is
24:35
Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci as he is himself. Check this out.
24:39
Speaker 5: The single most respected voice on the pandemic. It's doctor
24:42
Speaker 5: Anthony Fauci, the man.
24:43
Speaker 6: Who's become known as America's doctor, the nation's top infectious
24:47
Speaker 6: disease expert, Anthony Fauci.
24:48
Speaker 7: You are a saint too many is a superhero, Doctor
24:52
Speaker 7: Anthony Fauci, American hero and New York Yankee fan.
24:57
Speaker 3: I've done so much for this country in terms of
24:58
Speaker 3: this crisis, so I really I appreciate your insight.
25:01
Speaker 2: Who better to give us answers?
25:03
Speaker 3: That we can trust and doctor Anthony Fauci.

Speaker 5: Get your rest because we need you.
26:00
Speaker 6: You are one of the busiest scientists in the country
26:02
Speaker 6: right now. It is an honor to have some of
26:04
Speaker 6: your time to help us understand what is going on.
26:07
Speaker 6: You know a lot of people have a lot of questions,
26:09
Speaker 6: so we appreciate your time, Sarah.
26:10
Speaker 5: We need people to continue to have faith in science,
26:12
Speaker 5: so thank you for your time.
26:13
Speaker 3: So thank you for being straight with us.
26:16
Speaker 2: Thank you for being able to come on.

26:20
Speaker 3: Whenever you can be here, it will have you.
26:23
Speaker 5: It's always an honor to have time with you.
26:24
Speaker 2: Thanks for being here.
26:25
Speaker 5: Good enough for you, sir, It's good enough for me
26:27
Speaker 5: and my family. So thank you, doctor.
26:29
Speaker 2: Faucher, Doctor Fauci, thank you for keeping it straight.
26:32
Speaker 3: Thank you for fighting the good fight.
26:34
Speaker 5: I'm sincerely appreciative that you are not walking away from
26:36
Speaker 5: this post. You make us smarter and safer and better
26:40
Speaker 5: every day.
26:40
Speaker 2: Thank you so much, doctor Fauci. Dear oh, we have
26:50
Speaker 2: to we have edited out these Savannah at the end,
26:53
Speaker 2: just to be nice to her.
26:56
Speaker 3: Lord.
26:56
Speaker 2: That was crazy.
26:58
Speaker 3: They're all journalists. Have you ever heard of or seen
27:02
Speaker 3: a figure that was so revered by supposedly objective journalists.
27:08
Speaker 3: Those aren't a bunch of talk show hosts.
27:11
Speaker 2: No, and and respect and appreciation are fine as far
27:15
Speaker 2: as they go for someone who's going to come on
27:17
Speaker 2: and share information in a time when information was needed.
27:21
Speaker 2: But you can't help but think that the fawning and
27:25
Speaker 2: and the the gushing was because they knew exactly what
27:29
Speaker 2: he represented, an authoritarian takeover of our schools, our businesses,
27:35
Speaker 2: and our lives. And they love it. But they were lying.
27:39
Speaker 2: I mean, what's crazy is and I told you this
27:43
Speaker 2: this morning. I looked this up on last night when
27:46
Speaker 2: when when I was researching a little bit, it was
27:49
Speaker 2: revealed in these, in these, in this journal that he
27:52
Speaker 2: and his team believed that the fatality rate in America
27:56
Speaker 2: would be about zero point two or zero point two
28:00
Speaker 2: three percent, which incidentally is like a pretty bad flu season.
28:05
Speaker 2: That's it's But then a couple weeks later he goes
28:08
Speaker 2: and testifies all one to two maybe three percent, and
28:12
Speaker 2: people are saying, wait a minute, three percent of us
28:14
Speaker 2: are gonna get wiped out, We're gonna die from COVID.
28:17
Speaker 2: And then I looked at up last night. The total
28:19
Speaker 2: was zero point three percent so so Mark. If Americans
28:24
Speaker 2: were saying, could who had the ability to say, you
28:26
Speaker 2: know what, I'm gonna take my chances. I'm gonna go.
28:29
Speaker 2: I have a ninety nine point ninety seven percent likelihood
28:33
Speaker 2: not to die from this thing. I'm not gonna destroy
28:37
Speaker 2: my livelihood. I'm not gonna lay stay locked in the
28:40
Speaker 2: den for the next six months. I'm not going to
28:42
Speaker 2: refuse to go to the supermarket. Blah blah blah. But
28:45
Speaker 2: this guy, he lied, He lied. Here's Brett. Here's Brit
28:51
Speaker 2: Hume on Fox News with Brett Bear last night, pointing
28:54
Speaker 2: out more than this, the personality grotesqueness of how he
28:59
Speaker 2: was so into being a celebrity. And I'm famous, and
29:01
Speaker 2: old Barbara Streisand is talking to me, and women are
29:04
Speaker 2: yelling at me as I walked down the street all
29:06
Speaker 2: that came out of this diary. And look at all
29:08
Speaker 2: these governors, look at all these mayors and governors shutting
29:11
Speaker 2: things down just because of words.
29:13
Speaker 3: I say, yeah, because how meaningful my words are. And
29:17
Speaker 3: of course publicly, I didn't shut anything down. Privately he
29:20
Speaker 3: was telling them all to lock it down. He's a liar,
29:23
Speaker 3: he's a fraud. And Brit Hume you know, sort of
29:27
Speaker 3: opined about all this with Brett Barr last night on
29:30
Speaker 3: Fox News.
29:31
Speaker 8: There is Brett, and it reveals two things really. One
29:34
Speaker 8: of them is that Fauci didn't really believe the stuff
29:37
Speaker 8: that he was saying in terms of the origin of
29:40
Speaker 8: the disease. And he also didn't He's also denied repeatedly,
29:46
Speaker 8: and we've seen it in television interviews and so on,
29:48
Speaker 8: that he was urging any shutdowns. These documents prove otherwise.
29:52
Speaker 8: He brags about getting New York City to shut down
29:55
Speaker 8: its schools and so on, about getting California to do
29:58
Speaker 8: the same thing. So he was very much an architect
30:01
Speaker 8: of what you may remember me calling back at the
30:03
Speaker 8: time Brat I called it the worst public policy decision
30:05
Speaker 8: in my lifetime. And I think it was, and I
30:08
Speaker 8: think it's made in some ways even worse now knowing
30:11
Speaker 8: what we know about what Founci was really thinking, and
30:14
Speaker 8: about how much time he spent and his diaries talking
30:18
Speaker 8: about how famous he'd become and all the glorification he
30:21
Speaker 8: was getting in the news media, and how palsy a
30:24
Speaker 8: lot of news media people had gotten with him.
30:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mark, is it fair? Is it fair to say
30:31
Speaker 3: we'll never make those same mistakes again.
30:34
Speaker 2: Well, I would love to think so. At the close
30:37
Speaker 2: of my radio show today, I said, there are two
30:39
Speaker 2: things that we're trying to do at the same time.
30:40
Speaker 2: We're trying to forget COVID ever happened, but we also
30:44
Speaker 2: want to remind ourselves to never forget what was done
30:47
Speaker 2: to us when COVID happened. And they seem to be
30:50
Speaker 2: at cross purposes. I would love to think that we've
30:54
Speaker 2: learned the lesson. I'd love to think that this has
30:56
Speaker 2: burned into our consciousness to where we will never allow
30:59
Speaker 2: these people to take the liberties they took without rising
31:02
Speaker 2: up against it. But then I think about the country,
31:06
Speaker 2: and I think about our society and how forgiving we are,
31:08
Speaker 2: how forgetful we are, how stupid we can sometimes be
31:11
Speaker 2: across vast cross sections of America. And I don't know,
31:15
Speaker 2: if enough time goes by and the next pandemic seems
31:18
Speaker 2: bad enough, and we have authoritarians who are skilled enough
31:22
Speaker 2: and treacherous enough, I wouldn't put it past.
31:24
Speaker 3: Well, it's going to be. It's going to be glorious
31:28
Speaker 3: to watch Fauci appear before Congress tomorrow.
31:32
Speaker 2: That's tomorrow, tomorrow. In the Senate Dirkson Building Room SD
31:37
Speaker 2: three forty two. I think it's slated to get going.
31:40
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a long it's going to be a
31:42
Speaker 2: long day. It's going to seem like a long day.
31:45
Speaker 2: I hope for doctor Fauci. I think eight thirty Eastern,
31:47
Speaker 2: seven thirty nine times we should be able to cover
31:49
Speaker 2: in our respective radio shows all kinds of highlights of
31:53
Speaker 2: Rand Paul face to face with doctor Fauci. It get
31:57
Speaker 2: your popcorn well.
31:58
Speaker 3: And Rand Paul has our already said that the Sleezy
32:03
Speaker 3: preemptive pardon that he got from Sleezy Biden won't apply
32:09
Speaker 3: if Fauci lies tomorrow under oath. So where this is
32:13
Speaker 3: going to really have some teeth, where this thing is
32:16
Speaker 3: going to really matter is you've got to keep your
32:18
Speaker 3: eye on what he says, because if he lies about anything,
32:23
Speaker 3: the pardon doesn't apply. That's for stuff that he did
32:28
Speaker 3: prior to a day like tomorrow. And so look, he
32:33
Speaker 3: is facing a perilous interrogation by Ran Paul and others
32:38
Speaker 3: tomorrow on Capitol Hill.
32:41
Speaker 2: He is, and he's going to be meticulous and detailed
32:46
Speaker 2: in his use of language. Both you and I could
32:48
Speaker 2: fill up blines with people who thrill to the idea
32:51
Speaker 2: of a heavy iron bar closing behind Anthony Fauci as
32:54
Speaker 2: he wears orange pajamas. I think that's an extremely steep climb.
33:00
Speaker 2: I would bet against ever seeing That doesn't mean it can't.
33:04
Speaker 2: I don't mean it's impossible, but there's there's there's like a gradation.
33:08
Speaker 2: Is somebody lying, yeah, probably, Can you find a contradiction
33:11
Speaker 2: between this and this?
33:12
Speaker 3: Yeah?
33:12
Speaker 2: Probably? Can they chalk it up to an honest mistake?
33:15
Speaker 2: They can try. But then at the time, the uppermost
33:18
Speaker 2: of that where you really get to somebody being convicted
33:21
Speaker 2: of something, is something that's provable, actionable, prosecutable, and the bar,
33:26
Speaker 2: the bar should be very high for that. It is,
33:28
Speaker 2: and that's what leads me to think that the best
33:31
Speaker 2: kind of like kind of like Hillary, you know, locker
33:33
Speaker 2: up that was never going to happen. The court of
33:35
Speaker 2: public opinion weighed in, and I think the same court
33:37
Speaker 2: as will deliver its verdict in Fauci and his reputation
33:40
Speaker 2: will be deservedly shattered.
33:42
Speaker 3: We're gonna see and keep tuned and we'll we'll break
33:45
Speaker 3: it all down tomorrow in the podcast. You know, I've
33:48
Speaker 3: health COVID safety Weight real important that you take care
33:54
Speaker 3: of yourselves. You and I both had kind of a
33:56
Speaker 3: similar experience with some some little bit of a scare
33:59
Speaker 3: with our heart, good old ticker and the arteries and
34:01
Speaker 3: all that. And I went and got a body scan,
34:03
Speaker 3: found out I got a little plaque issue. Very minor.
34:06
Speaker 3: Going to follow up with the dock and all that.
34:08
Speaker 3: But one thing that I know is important is we
34:11
Speaker 3: got to take the weight off. And the way I
34:13
Speaker 3: took it off and kept it off is PhD weight loss.
34:16
Speaker 3: PhD weight loss. While great great friends of ours, doctor
34:20
Speaker 3: Ashley Lucas, the quick fixes all fail. I mean, because
34:23
Speaker 3: when your body thinks it's under stress, it slows your metabolism.
34:26
Speaker 3: It holds onto the fat fights you every step of
34:29
Speaker 3: the way. Even these shots, even the GLP one shots
34:32
Speaker 3: and meds, they suppress appetite, but they don't fix what
34:35
Speaker 3: caused the problem to begin with. Well, PhDe weight loss
34:37
Speaker 3: focuses on restoring your metabolism so your body stops fighting you.
34:41
Speaker 3: That's when the real change begins. I lost over fifty
34:44
Speaker 3: pounds and let me tell you quick personal and it dood.
34:47
Speaker 3: I probably shouldn't admit this because I always kind of
34:49
Speaker 3: carry my weight pretty well, A lot of people don't.
34:51
Speaker 3: You can see me, and I don't look as heavy
34:53
Speaker 3: as sometimes I actually am on the scale. I got
34:57
Speaker 3: sloppy in the last six months or so. I was
34:59
Speaker 3: traveling a I got reckless, and I put on some weight.
35:04
Speaker 3: I've lost twenty pounds in about well a little over
35:07
Speaker 3: four weeks now on the kitchen, I'm in the PhD
35:10
Speaker 3: program works. I was never hungry. I am never hungry.
35:13

35:15
Speaker 3: mention Mike and Mark, you're gonna get two free weeks
35:18
Speaker 3: added to the program. They'll pay for the cost of
35:20

35:49

36:05
Speaker 2: of some of the family friendly, faith based entertainment can
36:07
Speaker 2: be a little sappy, and it's maybe and it's well meaning,
36:10
Speaker 2: but it ain't the greatest stuff in the world. This
36:12
Speaker 2: is the Robertsons behind this. It's the Duck Dynasty Vibe.
36:14
Speaker 2: Duck Dynascese was not just one a safe show to
36:17
Speaker 2: watch in a wonderful family and wonderful faithfilled people. But
36:20
Speaker 2: they were funny. They were genuinely funny, they were smart.
36:23
Speaker 2: The whole thing was entertaining. And that's exactly what you
36:25
Speaker 2: find at Echo dot com. And it doesn't all involve

Speaker 3: and spiritual matters? Can I share with you how how
37:10
Speaker 3: how prayer works sometimes? I mean, I mean, look, it
37:14
Speaker 3: always works, but sometimes you don't get the outcome that
37:16
Speaker 3: you hope for. Correct. You and I have both partnered
37:19
Speaker 3: over the years. We traveled to Guatemala together for Food
37:23
Speaker 3: for the Poor. It was one of my happiest memories
37:24
Speaker 3: seeing you and Lisa and Ethan, this great kid, your
37:29
Speaker 3: beautiful bride, and and the way you guys interacted with
37:32
Speaker 3: those poor poor people feeding kids and we were holding
37:36
Speaker 3: them in our arms. And July was a month on
37:39
Speaker 3: my talk show to to support Food for the Poor
37:43
Speaker 3: and the ministry that they do. They feed starving families
37:49
Speaker 3: and clothe and hows poor people all over the Western hemisphere.
37:54
Speaker 3: And look, I didn't I didn't pull any punches. This week.
37:57
Speaker 3: We were entering the final week of the campaign and
38:00
Speaker 3: we were really behind, and I was really I was
38:04
Speaker 3: really stressed, and I started I turned it over to God.
38:07
Speaker 3: We started Monday. Let me give you. Let me just
38:09
Speaker 3: give you some quick numbers. Because you are a then
38:12
Speaker 3: diagram guy or no, is that what you call it?
38:14
Speaker 3: What do you always say? You love to say? I
38:16
Speaker 3: love float charts, flight, here's what art. So here's the
38:19
Speaker 3: float chart. The goal was forty six thousand dollars. We
38:23
Speaker 3: had a four week campaign that ends this week. I
38:27
Speaker 3: started the day yesterday with about twenty three twenty four
38:31
Speaker 3: thousand dollars raised of a forty six thousand dollars goal.
38:34
Speaker 3: So we were just barely over halfway. And we had
38:37
Speaker 3: a meeting. We said, well, too bad. We did our best,
38:40
Speaker 3: but this year we're not going to get there. Mark,
38:43
Speaker 3: do you know? I prayed. I prayed on the air.
38:46
Speaker 3: I prayed like you do every day on your show.
38:49
Speaker 3: And we had like people blue the doors open, like
38:53
Speaker 3: over ten thousand dollars in the small individual donors. Yesterday
38:57
Speaker 3: today I saw that we were at thirty six thousand
39:00
Speaker 3: dollars of our forty six thousand dollars goal ten thousand
39:04
Speaker 3: away phone raise. Tracy and Alex pick up lady by
39:10
Speaker 3: the name of Gail in Florida. She tells Tracy, you know,
39:14
Speaker 3: I was kind of on the fence. I wanted to
39:15
Speaker 3: make a nice, big donation because I love food for
39:17
Speaker 3: the poor. I appreciate what they do. I want to
39:20
Speaker 3: do some a little bit of God's work here. And
39:22
Speaker 3: she said, I was on the fence, but then I
39:24
Speaker 3: heard Mike Pray on his show with that daily prayer
39:28
Speaker 3: that he, like Mike Mark, has introduced to his audience.
39:32
Speaker 3: She said, that did it for me. Here's twenty five
39:35
Speaker 3: thousand dollars. She made an ello. She made an online
39:38
Speaker 3: donation already been processed of twenty five thousand dollars. We
39:44
Speaker 3: now have like well over sixty thousand rays against our
39:48
Speaker 3: forty six thousand dollars goal. And Mark, I give it
39:51
Speaker 3: all up to the Lord. It's prayers. It was bad,
39:55
Speaker 3: isn't that? Isn't that incredible? That is simple. I'm so
39:58
Speaker 3: glad you shared that. I feel honored to have heard that.
40:02
Speaker 3: And I because I know your Your campaigns are always
40:04
Speaker 3: so successful and I always enjoyed doing them, and we
40:06
Speaker 3: have great success in doing things. But every once in
40:08
Speaker 3: a while there'll be a moment where it's like, you know,
40:10
Speaker 3: might need a little help getting across the finish line.
40:12
Speaker 3: And there's no better place to ask for that help
40:14
Speaker 3: than Amen. With God, all things are possible, and He's
40:19
Speaker 3: in control, and we are both profoundly grateful to get
40:22
Speaker 3: to do this every single day. If you haven't noticed,
40:25
Speaker 3: Mark and I kind of enjoy this podcast. If you haven't,
40:29
Speaker 3: haven't sensed.
40:30
Speaker 2: It, it's nutty, it's absolutely nutty.
40:34

40:46
Speaker 3: I can walk anywhere I want. There's no wire, there's
40:48
Speaker 3: no tail. I don't know. It's a little bit.
40:50
Speaker 2: Now here's here, here's the nineteen fifties TV studio. No,
40:54
Speaker 2: it's kind of funny, it's it's perfectly good technology. So
40:57
Speaker 2: I've got this. I'll turn. Can you see the thing
40:59
Speaker 2: in my Yeah?
41:00
Speaker 3: I got it.
41:01
Speaker 2: Then there's a little coily thing and now here I'm
41:03
Speaker 2: gonna unplug it for a minute. So I hear you
41:05
Speaker 2: and it's up there.
41:06
Speaker 3: It goes hard wired. It's it's attached to that.
41:10
Speaker 2: So if I get to go, you know, like you know,
41:12
Speaker 2: if I get to go pee or something like that,
41:13
Speaker 2: I got to pick that up, drag it with me.
41:15
Speaker 2: It's going to hook on the chair. I'll go and
41:18
Speaker 2: I'll yank my head off because it's going to hook
41:19
Speaker 2: on the arm or the wheel of the chair. But
41:22
Speaker 2: now wireless Mike has that thing. Can I ask how
41:26
Speaker 2: much that boy?
41:27
Speaker 3: We'll get it for you. Don't worry. We're going to

41:46
Speaker 2: can kick you can kick it old school. This is
41:49
Speaker 2: me on radio wearing these big bad boys. This is
41:54
Speaker 2: what you get for eminem radio, because that's what I
41:56
Speaker 2: need for the superior fidelity of radio. But then I
42:00
Speaker 2: cast all that aside. I slapped the old school I
42:04
Speaker 2: f b in my ear for the that'd be louder.
42:09
Speaker 2: And that's how we go there. And then then then

Speaker 3: robot in Lost in Space. I mean, I got and
42:24
Speaker 3: I got wires, I'm clipped and I'm attached, and I
42:27
Speaker 3: got crap coming out of my ears and my my,
42:30
Speaker 3: you know what, and look, and you got to be
42:32
Speaker 3: careful with this wireless technology. Back in the day when
42:35
Speaker 3: I used to be a Fox News Channel contributor, I
42:38
Speaker 3: I guest hosted the Fox and Friends Weekend show a
42:42
Speaker 3: few times, which was fun and it was a good gig,
42:44
Speaker 3: and I did all kinds of stuff. But they wire
42:47
Speaker 3: you wirelessly with your mic and your I f B,
42:50
Speaker 3: so both your earpiece and your microphone is all clamped
42:54
Speaker 3: to your body and it's always on. Well, I went
