0:13
Speaker 2: the second most famous Thomas and Charlotte's.
0:36
Speaker 3: What it's Ted Stey Already, My goodness, where's this week going?
0:41
Speaker 3: It's like trying to fill a Dixie hump cup with
0:43
Speaker 3: a fire hose.
0:44
Speaker 4: Q Congress.
0:47
Speaker 5: Thomas, listen to the.
0:52
Speaker 4: Shop, will you Daniels.
1:01
Speaker 3: I know, with plenty of heavy stuff to get into
1:04
Speaker 3: this morning, including the redistricting battles in California and Virginia
1:10
Speaker 3: and Illinois, and the President in South Korea signing deals
1:15
Speaker 3: and getting people on board, but I want to begin
1:19
Speaker 3: with William Daniels. Of course, the actor you pick Saint
1:26
Speaker 3: Elsewhere Saved By Saved by the Bell was the one
1:31
Speaker 3: I never watched that one, and of course his portrayal
1:35
Speaker 3: of John Adams in the musical depiction of the Founding
1:41
Speaker 3: of This Nation. And I like to tell folks I've
1:45
Speaker 3: never met Thomas Jefferson, but I met the guy who
1:49
Speaker 3: played him in seventeen seventy six, so I count something
1:53
Speaker 3: in there as I live here in the shadow of Monticello. Well,
1:57
Speaker 3: William Daniels decided to what remains of his celebrity, and
2:02
Speaker 3: at ninety eight, God bless him. It's like my mother
2:05
Speaker 3: in law still going at ninety eight. Although I wouldn't
2:08
Speaker 3: publish anything my mother in law says to me in confidence.
2:12
Speaker 3: William Daniels posted to Twitter yesterday saying that we performed
2:27
Speaker 3: seventeen seventy six in the beautiful East Room where Nixon
2:31
Speaker 3: was in the White House. He was gracious even though
2:34
Speaker 3: none of us had voted for him, and then he
2:37
Speaker 3: added the caption, the current president has ripped a piece
2:40
Speaker 3: of history from our lives, and we mustn't take this
2:44
Speaker 3: lightly because he doesn't elaborate what that piece of history is.
2:50
Speaker 3: But I presume he's speaking of the Declaration of Independence,
2:55
Speaker 3: and I'm not sure what. Like I said, my mother
2:57
Speaker 3: in law's ninety eight, and I wouldn't publish anything she
3:01
Speaker 3: put on Twitter, either, but just thought i'd share that.
3:05
Speaker 4: As we open this morning to what your.
3:07
Speaker 3: Appetite for today's program four three four eight eight two
3:12
Speaker 3: four two one seven. Our first things is I have
3:15
Speaker 3: to tell you what went on before we can discuss
3:18
Speaker 3: any of it. More than half the likely voters UH
3:22
Speaker 3: in California are planning to support the redistricting ballot measure
3:26
Speaker 3: PROP fifty survey by the Public Policy Institute of California
3:31
Speaker 3: conducted by IPSOS, said fifty six percent of likely voters
3:36
Speaker 3: plan to vote for the measure, and of that fifty
3:40
Speaker 3: six And this is where statistics become silly, just so
3:43
Speaker 3: they could say ninety five percent disapprove of how Trump
3:47
Speaker 3: is handling his job. That's ninety five percent of the
3:51
Speaker 3: fifty six percent that are going to vote for the
3:54
Speaker 3: redistricting measure. But they get to say it because it's statistics.
3:59
Speaker 3: US President and Trump met with South Korean President Lee
4:03
Speaker 3: je mung in the city of Jungju, the final stop
4:07
Speaker 3: on his Asia tour aimed at securing new investment deals.
4:11
Speaker 3: He said in the speech just hours ago, the Republic
4:13
Speaker 3: of Korea is a cherished American friend and a close ally,
4:17
Speaker 3: and as we can see in this beautiful city, it's
4:20
Speaker 3: truly one of the most remarkable nations anywhere on Earth.
4:25
Speaker 3: German activist Naomi Seat, dubbed as the anti Greta by Europeans,
4:31
Speaker 3: has filed for asylum in the United States, claiming she's
4:34
Speaker 3: being politically persecuted in Germany for her political views. In
4:39
Speaker 3: her petition submitted an under section two eight of the
4:44
Speaker 3: Immigration and Nationality states that returning to Germany would expose
4:49
Speaker 3: her to imprisonment and physical harm. The Senate GOP majority
4:56
Speaker 3: rebuked President Trump's economic agenda as a applies to Brazilian tariffs,
5:02
Speaker 3: voting against in a ceremonial vote fifty two to forty
5:06
Speaker 3: eight against a fifty percent tariff on Brazilian imports. The
5:11
Speaker 3: House said Speaker Johnson said, they're not going to take
5:14
Speaker 3: up the bill. Of the five Republicans, only one's a
5:18
Speaker 3: noted free market here, and that would be Ran Paul
5:21
Speaker 3: of Kentucky. Mitch McConnell, who is married to Chinese shipping company,
5:26
Speaker 3: Tom Tillis of North Carolina. Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski
5:31
Speaker 3: were also the Republicans that voted for the bill that
5:36
Speaker 3: was proposed by my Senator in Virginia, Tim Kaine Zorhan Mamdanni,
5:42
Speaker 3: Democrat nominee for New York City Mayor, is facing two
5:45
Speaker 3: criminal referrals on illegal contributions to his campaign. According to
5:51
Speaker 3: a report in The New York Post, Mam Donnie's campaign
5:55
Speaker 3: brought in nearly thirteen thousand dollars from one hundred and
5:58
Speaker 3: seventy donors with addresses outside the United States, and that's
6:03
Speaker 3: a no no. Federal judge in San Francisco Tuesday indefinitely
6:07
Speaker 3: barred the Trump administration from firing federal employees during the
6:11
Speaker 3: government shutdown, saying that labor unions were likely to prevail
6:15
Speaker 3: in their claims against the president. The Clintonee appointee, Judge
6:21
Speaker 3: Susan Ilston, said she believes the court filing will show
6:25
Speaker 3: the firings were illegal and an excess of authority.
6:29

Speaker 10: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
8:07
Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi'm
8:13
Speaker 10: doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
8:19
Speaker 10: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
8:24
Speaker 10: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
8:28
Speaker 10: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
8:32
Speaker 10: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation has
8:37
Speaker 10: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
8:43
Speaker 10: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
8:46
Speaker 10: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
8:51
Speaker 10: cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where we

10:37
Speaker 12: whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them

13:21
Speaker 3: God has given to you in the regal and enthusiastic
13:25
Speaker 3: application of those gifts to a grateful constituency who rewards
13:30
Speaker 3: you justly.
13:31
Speaker 4: And you can't go wrong doing that.
13:34
Speaker 3: And people misunderstandify it's not about playing guitar. It's about
13:41
Speaker 3: whatever it is God has gifted you to do, and
13:43
Speaker 3: that's one of the problems in American society. We're always
13:47
Speaker 3: looking at the grass in our neighbor's yard. We always
13:52
Speaker 3: wish as one of the seven vices. Gotta be careful
13:56
Speaker 3: of that emails. This one just came in. You met
14:01
Speaker 3: Ken Howard? How did that happen? No, Ken Howard was
14:06
Speaker 3: considered that big of a deal, to be fair.
14:11
Speaker 4: You know, it was.
14:12
Speaker 3: Back when he was doing that TV show The White Shadow.
14:16
Speaker 3: He had to come home, I think was was it?
14:18
Speaker 3: Lloyd Bridges played his dad. Somebody another famous actor played
14:22
Speaker 3: his father, but his home was in Queens, New York,
14:25
Speaker 3: and they used to They used my high school baside
14:28
Speaker 3: high school is the exterior shots of his high school.
14:31
Speaker 3: And they filmed some of the exterior shots of his
14:34
Speaker 3: dad's house about two blocks from where I grew up there.
14:38
Speaker 3: So we all went over and they were doing, you know,
14:40
Speaker 3: kind of doing makeup and everything. He was very nice,
14:43
Speaker 3: very nice. So, like I said, never met Thomas Jefferson,
14:46
Speaker 3: but I've met Ken Howard, so I guess that close now.
14:49
Speaker 3: William Daniels never met William Daniels, and at ninety eight
14:53
Speaker 3: sounds a little curmudgeonally, I'd like to ask William Daniels
14:56
Speaker 3: if he has all his marbles, and like I said,
14:59
Speaker 3: my mother other than law could post to Twitter as well.
15:02
Speaker 3: At ninety eight, I wouldn't necessarily take any of it
15:05
Speaker 3: to the bank. But what parts of the Declaration of
15:08
Speaker 3: Independence which you seem to be alluding to, since you
15:12
Speaker 3: did seventeen seventy six and it is conveniently coming up
15:15
Speaker 3: on the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the actual declaration,
15:19
Speaker 3: what parts of that has he rent asunder from you?
15:23
Speaker 3: Just curious about that. Bob's on the phone from Moscow.
15:27
Speaker 3: I'm curious, Bob, do you think they're going to celebrate
15:30
Speaker 3: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of
15:32
Speaker 3: America in Moscow at all?
15:35
Speaker 15: Oh?
15:36
Speaker 1: Probably will, because there's a huge number of Russian and
15:40
Speaker 1: American expats, you know, so it's part of culture. You know,
15:45
Speaker 1: they solved in all the Muscleim holidays because it's a
15:49
Speaker 1: part of the culture. So one thing I'm answering your
15:52
Speaker 1: first question, what about seventeen seventy six. He's referring to
15:58
Speaker 1: how the Democratic hardy right now is causing an insurrection
16:03
Speaker 1: by shutting down the United States of America and not
16:07
Speaker 1: allowing it to reopen. That's what he's referring to.
16:11
Speaker 3: Oh, but he says this president, so he's he's if
16:16
Speaker 3: that's what he's referring to, he's blaming Donald Trump for that.
16:21
Speaker 1: No, No, he's saying this president, Donald Trump is just
16:24
Speaker 1: like George Washington. He was defending America from the evil people,
16:29
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, who is shut down America, trying to
16:33
Speaker 1: cause an insurrection to keep it their monarchy, the monarchy
16:41
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party.
16:43
Speaker 3: There are a lot of people in seventeen seventy six,
16:46
Speaker 3: you know, one of the points of Patrick Henry's give
16:49
Speaker 3: me Liberty or give me Death speech is he was
16:51
Speaker 3: trying to convince the Virginia General Assembly to sign off
16:55
Speaker 3: on revolution. And because it was it was very it
17:01
Speaker 3: was like and even at best. I've seen some analysis
17:05
Speaker 3: that say that the vox popular of the American colonials
17:08
Speaker 3: was about thirty three thirty three thirty three or maybe
17:12
Speaker 3: forty forty twenty, with that twenty percent in the middle
17:16
Speaker 3: really trying to you know, going to be the ones
17:18
Speaker 3: that would decide, you know, which side they were on,
17:21
Speaker 3: and the more things like stamp acts and stuff like that.
17:24
Speaker 3: George King, George pushed that twenty percent into the side
17:29
Speaker 3: of revolt.
17:32
Speaker 1: Right, But what I was actually talking about when you
17:34
Speaker 1: said about Mandani and him getting donations from outside the
17:39
Speaker 1: United States, Huh, Well, what about what about all these
17:44
Speaker 1: other donors to the parties that are donating money to
17:49
Speaker 1: charitable to different companies, different folds that are outside the
17:54
Speaker 1: money outside the United States, like George Sorels and all
17:57
Speaker 1: these people. Isn't that the thing that.
18:00
Speaker 4: Well, and it's one.
18:01
Speaker 1: Of the they're circumventing the law.
18:05
Speaker 3: Right, it's well, or you use my phrase money laundering,
18:10
Speaker 3: because what they do, and this is where groups like
18:13
Speaker 3: Act Blue, which was the fundraising folks behind Barack Obama's
18:18
Speaker 3: two thousand and eight campaign. Act Blue takes money from wherever.
18:23
Speaker 3: It's just a website. It's like giving money to PayPal
18:26
Speaker 3: or I can not PayPal, but go go fund myself
18:30
Speaker 3: and stuff like that, and you give them the money
18:34
Speaker 3: and then they give the money to these campaigns. Look
18:38
Speaker 3: at the the Prop fifty campaign money. For all this
18:43
Speaker 3: money that Prop fifties campaign has in California, most of
18:47
Speaker 3: it came through Act Blue as contributions, So we don't
18:51
Speaker 3: know where those came from.
18:54
Speaker 1: Well, that's my question, can the Justice Department do an
18:57
Speaker 1: investigation of the conglomerate, these non charity, these charities, whatever
19:04
Speaker 1: the case, and if they're receiving money from overseas, then
19:09
Speaker 1: they cannot donate to any political campaign because they're basically
19:16
Speaker 1: taking foreign donations to determine an election.
19:20
Speaker 3: That would be a great thing for them to look
19:22
Speaker 3: into it. It should be something they're looking into because
19:25
Speaker 3: these money laundering groups, you take this money from lord
19:30
Speaker 3: knows where and then they make the contribution and that's
19:34
Speaker 3: the part that this is how it skirts election law.
19:38
Speaker 3: Now you have to be careful. This is like nuclear
19:40
Speaker 3: waste because you know, we have the Supreme Court ruling
19:47
Speaker 3: in I just had them and you said something, and
19:52
Speaker 3: it's scampered away. The ruling on money in the campaign's
19:59
Speaker 3: corporate money, citizens United. That's that's the one. It snuck
20:04
Speaker 3: out back from behind the door where it was hiding.
20:07
Speaker 3: But you have the Citizens United ruling that says money
20:12
Speaker 3: is tata amount to speech. And this is where you
20:16
Speaker 3: know you have to be very careful, and first you
20:19
Speaker 3: have to have a buttoned up investigation into these groups
20:21
Speaker 3: and say, okay, you cannot accept money from overseas if
20:26
Speaker 3: that money is going, but it becomes one of those
20:29
Speaker 3: how do you how do you firewall this? And you
20:33
Speaker 3: have to make it so they have to open their
20:36
Speaker 3: books to election transparency groups and the Department of Justice constantly,
20:42
Speaker 3: because otherwise you'll never know.
20:45
Speaker 4: You know, Oh, hold it, they're not looking. This is
20:47
Speaker 4: just a you.
20:48
Speaker 3: Know, like George Soros did with the prosecutors. Oh this
20:52
Speaker 3: is a small race. Nobody's paying attention to it. We
20:54
Speaker 3: can buy all these prosecutors and create social justice warriors.
20:59
Speaker 4: Out of them.
21:01
Speaker 1: Yep. And the judges that are making these rules against
21:06
Speaker 1: the National Guard and troops coming in basically are cutting

24:12

24:31
Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that Kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,

28:41
Speaker 4: I mean ted sty to you as we wrap October.
28:44
Speaker 15: The speed.
28:49
Speaker 3: You still dress up for Halloween as an arbiter of
28:53
Speaker 3: pop culture here in the center square of it all.
28:56
Speaker 3: I feel like there's less and less. I mean, there's
28:59
Speaker 3: more and more trunk and treats, churches and community groups
29:03
Speaker 3: doing trunk or treats, and those sort of centralized things
29:07
Speaker 3: kind of borne out of the shopping center trick or
29:11
Speaker 3: treating and the shopping mall stuff. But there's there are
29:17
Speaker 3: a growing number of neighborhoods that say, don't trick or
29:21
Speaker 3: treat here. I mean, especially if you live in a
29:23
Speaker 3: homeowners association. I mean, if you're still in a place
29:26
Speaker 3: where kids go door to door with friends and mom
29:30
Speaker 3: and dad curious about it, let us know. I mean,
29:34
Speaker 3: not that I'm going to be coming there in my
29:36
Speaker 3: Arthur Dent costume, but you never know, Doctor Clark on
29:40
Speaker 3: the line with us. So much to get into this morning.
29:42
Speaker 3: We haven't barely scratched the surface, but I've apparently torked
29:46
Speaker 3: a bunch of folks with my commentary on William Daniels.
29:49
Speaker 4: Of all things, I mean, we.
29:51
Speaker 3: Play we spend a lot of time talking about John
29:53
Speaker 3: Adams on this program. Rarely do we talk about the
29:56
Speaker 3: guy who played John Adams, or at least the one
29:59
Speaker 3: in the first musical about the founding of our nation.
30:02
Speaker 4: Good morning, Clark. What's going on with you, sir?
30:05
Speaker 22: Well, let's see, I don't know. Yes, I dressed for Halloween,
30:09
Speaker 22: but then again, I dress for every day. I don't
30:12
Speaker 22: have any specific and aked days.
30:13
Speaker 4: So all right, all right, I got it, I got it.
30:19
Speaker 4: All right, choose your words more carefully, Joe. Okay, there
30:23
Speaker 4: you go.
30:24
Speaker 22: Hey, I'll give you a quick one on that. Talking
30:26
Speaker 22: to when I was in the Marine Corps, guy that
30:29
Speaker 22: had been on the drill field. Yeah, and he said,
30:32
Speaker 22: you have to be very careful about what's tell people.
30:38
Speaker 22: They had a commander's inspection coming up, and in the
30:42
Speaker 22: Marine Corps there will be no hair on your face
30:46
Speaker 22: in the terms of whistards, hair out of your ears,
30:48
Speaker 22: et cetera, et cetera. So he's explaining this to the
30:52
Speaker 22: recruits and he said, look, if it's hair and it's
30:56
Speaker 22: on your face, shave it off.
30:57
Speaker 1: All right.
30:59
Speaker 22: He's going down the line.
31:00
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the recruits.
31:01
Speaker 22: He steps in front of one of them.
31:04
Speaker 4: This guy has no eyebrows. Yeah.
31:06
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, it sounds like somebody's gonna share,
31:08
Speaker 3: gonna go the whole Uh was it?
31:12
Speaker 4: Marilyn Manson looked.
31:15
Speaker 22: Yeah, so you know, just insert gunnery Sergeant Hartman from
31:20
Speaker 22: Full Metal Jacket language.
31:22
Speaker 4: Have you done, sir?
31:25
Speaker 22: The drilling Sturtner said, of it was hair on the
31:28
Speaker 22: private's face. To save it off, Sir, I said, well.
31:32
Speaker 4: What do you do? Gunny?
31:33
Speaker 1: He said, Garrett? What could I do?
31:35
Speaker 22: I told him to do it. You just gotta be
31:37
Speaker 22: very careful about what you tell people to do. So anyway, Hey,
31:43
Speaker 22: have you seen AOC at the Montdamie Rally.
31:47
Speaker 3: I've seen some clips of it. Yeah, they shows up
31:50
Speaker 3: in my feet.
31:53
Speaker 22: I am not familiar enough, but when she starts bouncing around,
32:00
Speaker 22: I swear, Joe, I'm either channel In Grover or Elmo
32:05
Speaker 22: from Sesame Street. Now I'm not sure which one it is.
32:09
Speaker 3: Given her age, Given her age, I'm going to say Elmo.
32:13
Speaker 3: If she was our age, I'd say it's Grover. It's
32:18
Speaker 3: one of the other.
32:19
Speaker 4: Now, and are they related?
32:21
Speaker 3: Now there's a DNA test I'd like to see is
32:24
Speaker 3: Grover genetically related to Is Grover like his dad?
32:28
Speaker 4: His uncle?
32:30
Speaker 1: Mom?
32:30
Speaker 4: I guess we know.
32:31
Speaker 3: We never really found out if Grover was male or female,
32:33
Speaker 3: and given the way the Corporation for Public Public Broadcasting
32:37
Speaker 3: as he could have been both at the same time, Hey,
32:40
Speaker 3: did you see this speaking of the Corporation for Public
32:44
Speaker 3: Broadcasting NPR is now apparently a threatening to sue the
32:50
Speaker 3: Corporation for Public Broadcasting for quote caving into or to
32:55
Speaker 3: the Trump administration.
32:58
Speaker 19: Huh.
33:00
Speaker 22: Now the other thing, just very briefly, this autopen referral.
33:07
Speaker 19: Have you looked at that.
33:10
Speaker 4: Autopen referral? I mean, I know the investigation.
33:17
Speaker 22: They want everything that he did looked into, and they
33:20
Speaker 22: want the doctor checked out. So if they keep checking
33:23
Speaker 22: things out, we're liable to find out that there was
33:25
Speaker 22: massive fraud the night the toilet overflowed in Georgia.
33:30
Speaker 4: No, we'd never find that out.
33:32
Speaker 3: We'll investigate it, you know, and will campaign and we'll
33:36
Speaker 3: fundraise on investigating it, but we won't actually find anything.
33:40
Speaker 3: And if we do, we'll we'll redact it saying you know,
33:43
Speaker 3: the the you know, come up with some legal ease
33:49
Speaker 3: reason to not say it that for the sanctity of
33:53
Speaker 3: the Coalition for the Betterment of America, you know, in
33:57
Speaker 3: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our country. Uh,
34:00
Speaker 3: we're not, you know, we're sealing this indictment because it'll
34:06
Speaker 3: cause mass disruption and we can't have that security. Yeah,
34:10
Speaker 3: national security exactly, protect our phony beloity jobs.
34:16
Speaker 22: The last thing, there's an American Thinker article that was
34:21
Speaker 22: put up yesterday evening, and you know Smallwell has come
34:27
Speaker 22: out and said that don't even think about running in
34:31
Speaker 22: twenty twenty eight if you won't make the announcement that
34:34
Speaker 22: she'll take a wrecking ball to what the new East
34:38
Speaker 22: wing or ballroom or whatever.
34:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw something about that. So so they're gonna
34:43
Speaker 3: We're gonna spend millions of dollars building a ballroom on
34:47
Speaker 3: the east side of the White House and the next
34:51
Speaker 3: president is just going to tear it down.
34:54
Speaker 11: Well, now, wait a.
34:54
Speaker 22: Minute, that's not the statement, though, Joe, this is going
34:59
Speaker 22: to be the statement. Maga make America Great Again? Is
35:04
Speaker 22: not a slogan for Donald Trump policy. It's it's you know,
35:12
Speaker 22: everything he's doing is designed to improve things for who
35:18
Speaker 22: the American people. Right now, what the Democrats want to
35:24
Speaker 22: do as soon as they get in the power is
35:27
Speaker 22: take a wrecking ball to everything that's been done to
35:30
Speaker 22: improve the lives of American people.
35:32
Speaker 3: Oh so it's a metaphor, yes, I see, like kind
35:38
Speaker 3: of like playing Lyndon Johnson talking to his tailor about
35:41
Speaker 3: loose fitting pants is a metaphor for needing a new,
35:47
Speaker 3: shiny ballroom on the east wing of the White House.
35:53
Speaker 4: I guess.
35:55
Speaker 3: It's wordplay. Gotta gotta play with our words. If not,
36:00
Speaker 3: especially if you're not having a naked day.
36:03
Speaker 22: No, no naked days, Joe, get you in trouble.
36:07
Speaker 4: Oh good stuff.
36:08
Speaker 22: I'll tell you what. You go out and trick or
36:11
Speaker 22: treat without dressing for Halloween and see how that goes
36:14
Speaker 22: for you.
36:15
Speaker 4: Oh no, I have a very so.
36:16
Speaker 3: My costume is Arthur Dent from the book series The
36:21
Speaker 3: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, famously rescued from the destruction
36:26
Speaker 3: of Earth wearing nothing but his pajamas and a bathrobe
36:29
Speaker 3: and carrying a book that says, don't panic on it.
36:33
Speaker 3: So you wander around enough neighborhoods with small children wearing
36:38
Speaker 3: nothing but a bathrobe and pajama pants and carrying a
36:42
Speaker 3: book that says, don't panic on it, there will be
36:45
Speaker 3: law enforcement called in to just ask you a few questions.
36:49
Speaker 3: I guarantee it.

38:04
Speaker 18: problems in their solutions.
38:06
Speaker 7: For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
38:08
Speaker 18: In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
38:11
Speaker 18: forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
38:14
Speaker 18: efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.

Speaker 18: Treatment of hot Shot Secret diesel extreme will raise your
38:20
Speaker 18: seatane seven points, increase fuel economy and improve cold starts.
38:24

38:27
Speaker 18: particulate matter in your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of
38:30
Speaker 18: your diesel particulate filter. Using Diesel Extreme generates eighty three
38:34
Speaker 18: percent less DPF regenerations. The six and one Diesel Extreme

41:07
Speaker 13: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
41:10
Speaker 13: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths
41:14
Speaker 13: are preventable with a few lifestyle changes, including regular activity,
41:18
Speaker 13: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about

Speaker 13: your risk for type two diabetes and heart disease, and
41:26
Speaker 13: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The
41:30
Speaker 13: reason so many die is because not enough are willing

Speaker 2: Media Network, all natural and free of artificial intelligence.
44:29
Speaker 4: Thank you joining us this morning.
44:30
Speaker 3: And the King of the Apples in Central Virginia. He's
44:35
Speaker 3: also the son of the president. No laptops, however, he
44:41
Speaker 3: is Eric at Trump and he's joining us this morning.
44:43
Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Eric for joining us, inviting us
44:46
Speaker 3: out to the sidery to take a look around. Yeah,
44:51
Speaker 3: people don't know that part of the Trump but king
44:55
Speaker 3: of the apples here in Virginia.
44:57
Speaker 24: It's good to have you back. I never thought i'd
44:59
Speaker 24: be King of the apple. We planted about sixteen thousand
45:01
Speaker 24: apple trees that Trump Winery, Trump Sidery, so I guess
45:04
Speaker 24: that makes us king of the apple.
45:05
Speaker 3: Now that'll do it for you. How has the sidery
45:09
Speaker 3: division and if you don't know. The Trump family purchased
45:12
Speaker 3: this winery with ten years ago, yeah, a little bit
45:14
Speaker 3: over at closer to fifteen years ago. And it's become
45:17
Speaker 3: the largest winery on the East coast the United States.
45:19
Speaker 3: And we started a cider two years ago when we planted,
45:21
Speaker 3: as I said, close to sixteen thousand apple trees. People
45:24
Speaker 3: love the winery, people love the cider. Were distributed in
45:28
Speaker 3: forty two states, I think seven or eight countries around
45:30
Speaker 3: the world. Again, the largest winery east the Mississippi River.
45:33
Speaker 3: And we've won every award. We won San Francisco last year.
45:36
Speaker 3: I mean, we've absolutely done great. But people love the wine,
45:38
Speaker 3: people love the cider, and people just love the property. Well,
45:41
Speaker 3: and I've told you this before when you were in Charlottesville,
45:45
Speaker 3: aside from trying to get the tour of my studios
45:47
Speaker 3: first free coffee bar, but the Trump Winery, the tasting room,
45:51
Speaker 3: the sidery, it is absolutely stunning. It's all the best
45:55
Speaker 3: abuse of Virginia as well. And I'm not saying that
45:58
Speaker 3: just because Eric's taller than I am and I'm intimidated.
46:01
Speaker 3: So you know you're here, it's the first year of
46:04
Speaker 3: the apples and and you've been having folks in the
46:07
Speaker 3: community come up and do apple picking here as well.
46:10
Speaker 3: How is that going?
46:11
Speaker 24: So what's more all American than apple picking?
46:14
Speaker 11: Right?
46:14
Speaker 24: And we have one of the siders is called Donny
46:16
Speaker 24: apple Seed. We're having a lot of fun with you.
46:18
Speaker 24: We have a passionate patriot we're thinking about and there
46:20
Speaker 24: are general managers can kill me for saying this, but
46:22
Speaker 24: we're thinking about impeachment. So it will be all it'll
46:25
Speaker 24: be an apple slider, but it'll be you know, peach bass.
46:28
Speaker 24: But so we're thinking about calling it. And we've got
46:29
Speaker 24: a red, white and blueberry v fun with the siders.
46:32
Speaker 24: But honestly, they're delicious. They're they're made the same way
46:34
Speaker 24: that we make our sparkling lines. They're the best thing
46:37
Speaker 24: you'll ever taste. They're they're they're they're amazing. And the
46:39
Speaker 24: whole property is incredible. And the hotel is I mean,
46:42
Speaker 24: you can't even get into the hotel. It's you know,
46:44
Speaker 24: very small. We only have fourteen rooms and people book
46:46
Speaker 24: it up literally months in advance, and it's it's been
46:48
Speaker 24: so so incredible, this whole property.
46:50
Speaker 3: Travel guides have called the album Martle House, which is
46:53
Speaker 3: their hotel here. One of the best destination bed and
46:56
Speaker 3: breakfast inns in the nation. So again, nothing Trump does
47:02
Speaker 3: is done halfway. You told me that when you guys
47:04
Speaker 3: took over the winery here, Eric, I have to ask though,
47:07
Speaker 3: growing up in New York City, like I, did you
47:09
Speaker 3: know there's parts of Upstate New York which we all
47:12
Speaker 3: in New York City, we called Upstate New York Westchester
47:16
Speaker 3: where there was apple picking. Please tell me there are
47:18
Speaker 3: some instances where you and your dad went apple picking
47:22
Speaker 3: up in you know, upstate New York.
47:24
Speaker 24: And it's still a tradition when my kids, doll, I
47:26
Speaker 24: take them. I try and take them every year. And
47:28
Speaker 24: I said, what's a better what's a better tradition? And
47:30
Speaker 24: now in Virginia they're actually doing apple picking a little
47:32
Speaker 24: bit different. We obviously have incredible apple trees, but they're
47:34
Speaker 24: also we're taking a lot of the apple trees and
47:36
Speaker 24: putting them on trellis a similar way to what you
47:38
Speaker 24: do with wine.
47:39
Speaker 1: Wow.
47:40
Speaker 24: And what it does is for small kids, it makes
47:42
Speaker 24: it a lot easier. They're actually able to go and
47:43
Speaker 24: pick the apple versus trying to climb to the top
47:45
Speaker 24: of a tree. And and so you get better yields,
47:48
Speaker 24: you get better apples, you get better rietals, and so
47:51
Speaker 24: you know we've really you know, we we have pink
47:53
Speaker 24: Lady apples. We have I mean there's thirty different ridles
47:56
Speaker 24: and apples. People come out here, they have the greatest time,
47:58
Speaker 24: and the food is absolutely exceptional.
48:01
Speaker 3: Of course, now you have to take secret Service protection
48:03
Speaker 3: with you. It's not as easy as go walk. I'm
48:07
Speaker 3: going to segue into you've just released your new book
48:11
Speaker 3: under Siege. They talk about this look inside the family you, Lara.
48:16
Speaker 3: You know, everyone knows you and Don Junior in the
48:19
Speaker 3: whole family, probably more than a lot of presidents. Your
48:22
Speaker 3: family has been part of the affair. What was when
48:26
Speaker 3: did you finally say somebody needs to write all this down.
48:29
Speaker 24: Yeah, well, you know they tried. They tried everything they
48:31
Speaker 24: could to And you've known me for a long time.
48:33
Speaker 24: You know many of the things that they put us through.
48:35
Speaker 24: But they peached my father twice. They made up the
48:37
Speaker 24: dirty dossiers, they made up the Russia hoax. They took
48:39
Speaker 24: us off the ballots of Maine in Colorado. They threw
48:42
Speaker 24: us off of Instagram and Facebook and Twitter and YouTube
48:46
Speaker 24: everything you can possibly imagine. They raided our home, they
48:48
Speaker 24: raided mar Lago, they raided the Lania's closet. They I
48:52
Speaker 24: became the most opoenid person in American history. I've never
48:54
Speaker 24: kind of speeding tickets shoe, and I became the most
48:55
Speaker 24: opainted person in American history for doing absolutely not. I never
48:58
Speaker 24: had a laptop from hell, you know. I never had
48:59
Speaker 24: any of those bad habits that that other people have had.
49:03
Speaker 24: And yet I became a person who was used as
49:05
Speaker 24: a pinata, right because I happened to run the company.
49:08
Speaker 24: They indicted my father ninety one times. Every single one
49:11
Speaker 24: of them we've overturned. They did everything they could to
49:14
Speaker 24: bankrupt us, to try and destroy our company, to try
49:16
Speaker 24: and destroy our family, to try and break up our family,
49:19
Speaker 24: to try and silence our voice, to try and gag
49:21
Speaker 24: order us. As we were all gag ordered in every
49:24
Speaker 24: court and every jurisdiction across this country. And I had
49:27
Speaker 24: to write it all down. And then they tried to
49:28
Speaker 24: kill my father, Butler the first time, and then they
49:30
Speaker 24: tried to kill him this second time. And then they
49:32
Speaker 24: just killed a very good friend of mine, Charlie Kirk.
49:35
Speaker 24: And that's what it was. It was a siege. It
49:36
Speaker 24: was a coordinated effort to destroy us in any way
49:39
Speaker 24: shape because they didn't want our voice, they didn't want
49:41
Speaker 24: us to stand on a stage. They hated who we were,
49:45
Speaker 24: and they would do anything they possibly could. And Joe,
49:47
Speaker 24: it's amazing. I mean, I've spent a lot of time
49:49
Speaker 24: talking about fake media in the book, and I happened
49:51
Speaker 24: to win number one on the New York Times. And
49:53
Speaker 24: this wasn't the great irony of this, But this wasn't
49:55
Speaker 24: just by like a little amount, right, I mean, I
49:58
Speaker 24: won by you know, or one hundred thousand books on
50:01
Speaker 24: New York Times. It was a decisive I never thought
50:03
Speaker 24: I'd be the number one, number one author in the
50:06
Speaker 24: country right now. This was not you know, I'm a
50:09
Speaker 24: real estate guy. This is what I do. I do hospitality.
50:11
Speaker 24: You see the best of what I do every single day.
50:13
Speaker 24: But somebody had to tell the story about the crookedness.
50:16
Speaker 24: And the book has been so unbelievable. Is he's successful.
50:18
Speaker 24: It's been Amazon number one constantly for the last you know,
50:23
Speaker 24: three weeks, and incredibly proud of it. I mean, it
50:25
Speaker 24: was just very honest, very raw, no holding back. Probably
50:29
Speaker 24: will ruffle some feathers, but those feathers needed to be ruffled.
50:32
Speaker 3: And his pop writes the forward to the book, as well,
50:36
Speaker 3: get it for your Christmas gift, giving a guide. How
50:39
Speaker 3: do you think just you know we're here, you and
50:42
Speaker 3: I talked to folks Eric Trump's own with us. You know,
50:46
Speaker 3: it's only been nine months of Trump two point zero.
50:50
Speaker 3: I mean there's still three years left of this. What's
50:53
Speaker 3: going to be left in the tank?
50:55
Speaker 24: Well, you'll have a lot left in the tank because
50:56
Speaker 24: the guy's just I don't mean his energy, but yeah,
50:59
Speaker 24: I mean he's unbelieve I did Joe. I constantly say,
51:01
Speaker 24: you throw so much lead in the air that the
51:03
Speaker 24: other side they don't know what to do with it,
51:05
Speaker 24: Like they can't counter narrative. Meaning by the time they
51:07
Speaker 24: try and start formulating their own narrative and getting all
51:09
Speaker 24: their foot soldiers online, He's seven steps past them and
51:13
Speaker 24: they have to counter.
51:13
Speaker 7: Right.
51:14
Speaker 24: That was yesterday's news. And I mean, listen, he's got
51:16
Speaker 24: piece in the Middle East, he solved seven wars. Look
51:19
Speaker 24: at our economy right now, biggest tax cuts in the
51:21
Speaker 24: history of this nation. You see what he's doing with
51:23
Speaker 24: energy prices. Energy prices are coming down in massive ways.
51:26
Speaker 24: I mean it's look what he's doing with fentanyl. I
51:29
Speaker 24: mean never before that, I think you're gonna have a
51:31
Speaker 24: politicole party in this country that was going to fight
51:33
Speaker 24: a president who wanted to take out drug boats, those
51:35
Speaker 24: drug boats carrying fentanyl, who are literally poisoning our children.
51:38
Speaker 24: I have four friends who have lost kids to fentanyl,
51:40
Speaker 24: four who have, and we all do. I'm sure you
51:43
Speaker 24: have friends I have, and pretty much everybody listening to
51:45
Speaker 24: us right now. And you see these Democrats and they're saying,
51:48
Speaker 24: they're saying they buil a boat that's carrying enough ventanyl
51:50
Speaker 24: to poison ten thousand people. You know, how dare you
51:54
Speaker 24: take out on the drug cartels? And my father's keeping
51:56
Speaker 24: this world safe, He's keeping this country safe, he's keeping
51:58
Speaker 24: our borders safe. He's the strongest economy, he's putting America
52:02
Speaker 24: first again. He's leading the world in every And look
52:05
Speaker 24: at the reception he gets he's over in Asia right now.
52:06
Speaker 24: Look at the reception he has over an as no
52:09
Speaker 24: president has. You know, Obama would go to Asia, go
52:12
Speaker 24: to China. They wouldn't even bring staircase up air Force one.
52:14
Speaker 24: He would go down like the little kids stairs on
52:16
Speaker 24: like the base of Air Force one. It's so refreshing
52:19
Speaker 24: to see America's winning on every front and and I
52:22
Speaker 24: couldn't be more proud of him.
52:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, Eric Trump was The book is called Under Siege
