- 0:38Speaker 8: Oh bless you and all who know you. Thank you
- 0:44Speaker 8: for letting me be of service to you this morning.
- 0:49Speaker 8: Some great places Sacramento. The Twin Citi has just had
- 0:53Speaker 8: an email over the weekend. You do you have an
- 0:56Speaker 8: affiliate in Minneapolis or Saint Paul. My daughter lives there
- 0:59Speaker 8: and I have to go visit, so I appreciate you. Know, hey,
- 1:02Speaker 8: tune in, drop out, whatever it is Freedom fifteen seventy
- 1:07Speaker 8: in the Twin Cities there and of course Hannibal Moe
- 1:11Speaker 8: ten to seventy. Such a cool city to know that
- 1:14Speaker 8: people are tuning in. And Marjorie Taylor Greenland at news
- 1:19Speaker 8: Talk twelve thirty WBLJ in Dalton, thank you for there
- 1:24Speaker 8: and of course just north of you, so you can't
- 1:27Speaker 8: get away from me in Chattanooga, Tennessee on wgow AM
- 1:36Speaker 8: eleven fifty. So I appreciate all the folks who jump
- 1:39Speaker 8: in and jump on. We're going to stick a pin
- 1:42Speaker 8: in the story of sky Net Day and the new COVID,
- 1:50Speaker 8: the new COVID that will be used, and I want
- 1:53Speaker 8: to go back and get into the old COVID. What
- 1:57Speaker 8: do you mean, Joe, the old COVID. The old COVID
- 2:01Speaker 8: came back again in this Hawaiian story, the story out
- 2:07Speaker 8: of Hawaii where the Lieutenant governor got caught with her
- 2:11Speaker 8: hands in the cookie jar of COVID money a little
- 2:17Speaker 8: different way. It's not like Virginia Senator Louise Lucas, who
- 2:22Speaker 8: just caught taking money. She didn't have qualification for this.
- 2:26Speaker 8: One's more creative. This was I want some COVID grant money.
- 2:32Speaker 8: I want to be part of the COVID team in Hawaii.
- 2:38Speaker 8: I want the hot and cold running money. We saw
- 2:40Speaker 8: it even with the hospitals. You know a plausible reason. Hey,
- 2:44Speaker 8: hospitals are dealing with a lot of COVID patients. How
- 2:47Speaker 8: about we give them a little extra money for every
- 2:49Speaker 8: COVID patient they have to deal with. And then all
- 2:51Speaker 8: of a sudden mysteriously, all these people got COVID that
- 2:56Speaker 8: came in my shoulder. Hurts you have COVID. I mean,
- 3:00Speaker 8: it's one of those moments. We'll get into that, starting
- 3:04Speaker 8: off with the Lieutenant governor. But it's the bags of
- 3:07Speaker 8: other people's money. But first, our business plan is that
- 3:11Speaker 8: we tell you what went on last night, and then
- 3:13Speaker 8: we ask you to tell us how it's impacting you.
- 3:15Speaker 8: So here we go, second day in a row of
- 3:20Speaker 8: no attacks between the United States and Iran. According to
- 3:24Speaker 8: US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz, President Trump
- 3:29Speaker 8: is giving talks some space. He's giving it a little
- 3:32Speaker 8: bit of room. Perhaps not like Lyndon Johnson, what a
- 3:35Speaker 8: little bit of room for his boys. But he is
- 3:38Speaker 8: giving space too, As Waltz put out, Oman and Iran
- 3:44Speaker 8: and a number of our negotiators engaged at every level,
- 3:47Speaker 8: from most senior levels all the way down to the
- 3:49Speaker 8: technical level over the past few weeks and particularly the
- 3:54Speaker 8: past few days. Meanwhile, an oil tanker exploded in the
- 3:59Speaker 8: straight of horror moves after colliding with a naval mind.
- 4:03Speaker 8: This coming from Iran's semi official Tasnim news agency on Sunday.
- 4:08Speaker 8: They did not say whether the tear was an Iranian
- 4:12Speaker 8: affiliated tanker or one just trying to get through the
- 4:16Speaker 8: Strait of Hormuz. And an interesting crossover episode, Iranian Foreign
- 4:23Speaker 8: Minister A Boss Arachi said Sunday an Iranian commercial attack.
- 4:31Speaker 8: An Iranian commercial vessel was attacked by the Ukrainians and
- 4:37Speaker 8: Arachi promises this will not go unanswered. Rachi said that
- 4:42Speaker 8: the attack happened in the Caspian Sea. It killed one
- 4:45Speaker 8: sailor injured another. Israel says it struck a Hamas militant.
- 4:51Speaker 8: Hamas says it was a senior official, Colonel Yel al
- 4:58Speaker 8: Ledawi of the Services in Central Gaza. Syria has reached
- 5:06Speaker 8: out to Israel for a security agreement. According to President
- 5:10Speaker 8: Ahmed al Sharah in an interview with Al Jazeera on Sunday,
- 5:16Speaker 8: oil prices continued to drop back down to ninety two
- 5:20Speaker 8: dollars a barrel, down about five percent for Brent crude,
- 5:25Speaker 8: and a story we'll get into a little bit more shortly.
- 5:28Speaker 8: Lieutenant Governor Sylvia Luke of Hawaii was indicted on felony charges,
- 5:33Speaker 8: including bribery and conspiracy following an investigation did allegations she
- 5:39Speaker 8: accepted campaign contributions in exchange for advancing COVID nineteen testing contracts.
- 5:47Speaker 8: A suspect in the attack on the Berlin Pride parade
- 5:51Speaker 8: that left one person dead and twenty nine injured was
- 5:53Speaker 8: shot and killed by German police over the weekend, and
- 5:57Speaker 8: police have arrested one and are looking for an other
- 6:00Speaker 8: suspect in Seattle's space needle shooting over the weekend.
- 6:07Speaker 9: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co host of Foster and
- 6:10Speaker 9: Friends and former Virginia Tech football coach.
- 6:12Speaker 10: When I brought the.
- 6:13Speaker 9: Fame lunch fail to our team, it symbolized teamwork. The
- 6:16Speaker 9: word win stood for what's important. Now, the Lunch Pail
- 6:20Speaker 9: Defense Foundation realizes the importance of helping others. Our foundation

- 7:01Speaker 11: You know, a lot of times you have to choose
- 7:03Speaker 11: between something high quality or something that saves you money.
- 7:07Speaker 11: But what if you could get both? Why not, especially
- 7:09Speaker 11: when it comes to healthcare, and that is meta share.
- 7:12Speaker 10: You get both.
- 7:14Speaker 11: Many families save five hundred bucks a month with meta
- 7:17Speaker 11: share and that's huge. But it's also true that people
- 7:19Speaker 11: wind up way more satisfied too, and we know this
- 7:22Speaker 11: from research of members. There's a lot they like about
- 7:25Speaker 11: meta share, but especially they love being part of something
- 7:28Speaker 11: they believe in. And Medashare works too. It has for
- 7:31Speaker 11: more than thirty years. There are hundreds of thousands of
- 7:35Speaker 11: members who love having telehealth if they need it. They
- 7:38Speaker 11: love the huge Ppo network. You could save a ton
- 7:41Speaker 11: and like it better. Imagine being happy with how you're

- 10:08Speaker 14: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 14: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 14: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 10:21Speaker 14: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 10:24Speaker 14: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 10:27Speaker 14: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is

- 12:27Speaker 17: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 12:29Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 12:30Speaker 8: I'm pretty sober.
- 12:32Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 12:35Speaker 16: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 12:39Speaker 16: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 12:42Speaker 16: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message

- 13:11Speaker 2: We've cut the cost of radio listening by hell, it
- 13:14Speaker 2: didn't cost anything in the first place. So let's say
- 13:17Speaker 2: what million dollars I'm calling even first thing today by
- 13:23Speaker 2: Joe Thomas on the Chunk Media Network.
- 13:28Speaker 4: The best things in life of me, what you can
- 13:32Speaker 4: keep them by the best ambies and.
- 13:34Speaker 9: Not getting me.
- 13:38Speaker 18: That's what I want.
- 13:39Speaker 8: That, that's what I want. That's so money, the filthy
- 13:51Speaker 8: luker other people's money. Especially, we frequently rail about these hamhanded,
- 13:59Speaker 8: low rate and unqualified venture capitalists who play around with
- 14:06Speaker 8: other people's money like it's theirs. I was just reading
- 14:10Speaker 8: this piece. Apparently Mark Cuban has bought into the Oakland
- 14:14Speaker 8: or part of me the Las Vegas A's baseball team.
- 14:19Speaker 8: Why because people are going to go there, because at
- 14:22Speaker 8: some point the casinos just kind of get boring. And
- 14:25Speaker 8: who wouldn't want a baseball stadium with casinos in them anyway.
- 14:29Speaker 8: But at least he is responsible to those who give
- 14:35Speaker 8: him money. When he invests in something, they expect more
- 14:39Speaker 8: at the end of each quarter than they gave him
- 14:42Speaker 8: in the first place. If not, he's in trouble, and
- 14:46Speaker 8: in some cases, if he's misusing it, he could go
- 14:49Speaker 8: to prison. There are laws fraud, etc. Joel reminded me,
- 14:54Speaker 8: of course, that wonderful law thou shalt not bear false
- 14:58Speaker 8: witness against thy neighbor. Well, politicians like to play fast
- 15:02Speaker 8: and loose with that, saying, well, the fine false witness.
- 15:07Speaker 8: Such is the case of the Hawaiian Lieutenant governor who,
- 15:12Speaker 8: along with the Senate leader and leader of the Democratic
- 15:17Speaker 8: Party of Virginia, and so many others have been caught
- 15:20Speaker 8: with their hands in the cookie jar. Now, unlike Louise
- 15:24Speaker 8: Lucas here in Virginia, and we tried to bring this
- 15:27Speaker 8: story up earlier. Scott in Virginia Beach, I know, listens
- 15:31Speaker 8: to us online, I believe through our flagship station out
- 15:35Speaker 8: of Stanton, Virginia, Wtonradio dot com. If you ever like well,
- 15:42Speaker 8: I think it sounds like he's going on for more hours. Yes,
- 15:45Speaker 8: we do this for four hours. You can stream, but
- 15:47Speaker 8: I want you to stick with the folks who have
- 15:49Speaker 8: been grand enough to put us on their amplitude or
- 15:53Speaker 8: frequency modulation systems. But Scott in Virginia Beach listens to
- 15:58Speaker 8: us on WTR for the first hour of the program,
- 16:00Speaker 8: and then when they go into something else, he tunes
- 16:04Speaker 8: into us on the stream and caught the fact that
- 16:08Speaker 8: before we left w TAR, I dropped a bomb of
- 16:12Speaker 8: burning excrement on the lapse of the next hosts by
- 16:16Speaker 8: pointing out that Elaine Luria, Democrat running for Congress, had
- 16:22Speaker 8: made five million dollars annually in investments that she you
- 16:28Speaker 8: know again, the Nancy Pelosi paradigm, and that's that's the
- 16:33Speaker 8: what's sad to me is that's becoming the acceptable face
- 16:38Speaker 8: of government grift is that, Oh, I just know what's
- 16:43Speaker 8: going to be promoted and what's going to be denigrated,
- 16:45Speaker 8: so I can invest in it. Now, Donald Trump and
- 16:49Speaker 8: this whole you know whatever KAlSi and all these polymarket
- 16:55Speaker 8: betting on what they've lose their lunch over that. But
- 17:00Speaker 8: and do we still have the clip from Tom drops Bombs.
- 17:06Speaker 8: I know we had it there a little while ago.
- 17:08Speaker 8: And our friend Tom drops Bombs, he'll be on the
- 17:11Speaker 8: program tomorrow, still in cutter being, you know, Tyris to
- 17:18Speaker 8: Al Jazeera's version of Gutfeld.
- 17:26Speaker 10: But this was him once it said, where so is
- 17:29Speaker 10: my treasure? So too is my heart?
- 17:30Speaker 21: Well, when I was in Congress, I managed to do
- 17:32Speaker 21: something a little bit different than other members of Congress.
- 17:34Speaker 21: I actually managed to lose money. That's right, I lost money.
- 17:38Speaker 21: I did not leave with more money than I went with.
- 17:40Speaker 10: I left with less.
- 17:41Speaker 21: And one of the reasons for that is I spent
- 17:42Speaker 21: my own time and my own money going places like
- 17:44Speaker 21: Syria in Iraq.
- 17:45Speaker 8: And so he talks about himself for a while, and
- 17:47Speaker 8: then he's going to get into what happened with Elaine Luria.
- 17:51Speaker 8: And her large ass and it ties in with the
- 17:54Speaker 8: Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii and Senator Louise Lucas.
- 17:59Speaker 21: I feel good about what I did and regardless of
- 18:01Speaker 21: what the bottom line says, I think I did the
- 18:03Speaker 21: right thing. Now, let's contrast that to Elaine Laurier. Elaine
- 18:07Speaker 21: Laurie is running against Jen Kaggins in the second Congressional
- 18:10Speaker 21: district in Virginia.
- 18:11Speaker 10: Elayne Lauria served four years in Congress. Did she lose money?
- 18:14Speaker 21: No, In fact, she made money to the tune of
- 18:16Speaker 21: about five and a quarter million dollars a year while serving.
- 18:20Speaker 10: Five and a quarter million dollars a year while serving.
- 18:23Speaker 10: Who was she serving? Was she serving herself?
- 18:25Speaker 21: And now there's legislation supported by Jen Kaggins that says, hey,
- 18:28Speaker 21: how about we take members of Congress out of the
- 18:30Speaker 21: stock trading world? How about we not let people index
- 18:33Speaker 21: their investments to Nancy Pelosi because she seems to know.
- 18:36Speaker 10: More than Warren Buffett.
- 18:38Speaker 21: And when Elainnelaurie was asked about this, she said it
- 18:40Speaker 21: was a terrible idea. Well, of course she thinks it's
- 18:42Speaker 21: a terrible idea. She's making five and a quarter million
- 18:45Speaker 21: dollars a year. Look Jen Kiggins has given a lifetime
- 18:48Speaker 21: of service to.
- 18:49Speaker 8: It becomes a campaign at at this point for Jen Kiggins,
- 18:51Speaker 8: and you can choose whoever you want.
- 18:53Speaker 21: Through her information gleaned from her membership on committees in Congress.
- 18:56Speaker 21: And that's one of many reasons that I think she
- 18:58Speaker 21: is an amazing look for your beach, Chesapeake, Suffolk. You
- 19:01Speaker 21: guys are like my highest follower area in the state.
- 19:04Speaker 10: Gud lets. You guys, what's up with that? Get out
- 19:07Speaker 10: there and support Jen kig And she is a campaign
- 19:09Speaker 10: at more like her, not fewer.
- 19:12Speaker 21: And Elaine Laurier when you make it five and a
- 19:14Speaker 21: quarter million dollars a year on stock trades while in Congress,
- 19:17Speaker 21: how about maybe just to be smart enough to keep
- 19:19Speaker 21: your mouth shut when people talk about common sense reform,
- 19:22Speaker 21: tell your friends to vote.
- 19:24Speaker 8: So Tom drops those bombs, and it brought me back
- 19:31Speaker 8: to these two cases over the weekend. The lieutenant governor
- 19:40Speaker 8: and this is this is a much more traditional format.
- 19:43Speaker 8: So what the lieutenant governor of Hawaii has been indicted
- 19:46Speaker 8: for doing is saying to companies, hey, if you give
- 19:51Speaker 8: me campaign contributions, I will grease the skids so that
- 19:57Speaker 8: you will get lucrative COVID contracts, and understand these COVID
- 20:02Speaker 8: contracts were for testing. Remember, we all needed to get tested.
- 20:07Speaker 8: We had to have our contact tracing. We all needed
- 20:10Speaker 8: to have our COVID test cards. To get into see
- 20:13Speaker 8: a show, or go get the latest, even go to
- 20:18Speaker 8: the beach, we needed to show our COVID cards. Remember,
- 20:28Speaker 8: So the lucrative contracts to run these testing centers were given,
- 20:33Speaker 8: apparently in Hawaii to companies that contributed to Lieutenant Governor
- 20:38Speaker 8: Sylvia Luke's campaign. The Democrat lieutenant governor has been charged
- 20:47Speaker 8: with criminal conspiracy to commit bribery and falsifying campaign committee reports.
- 20:53Speaker 8: Because she knew it was wrong, she falsified the campaign
- 20:58Speaker 8: committee reports to hide the fact that she was taking
- 21:01Speaker 8: patronage money from people who were going to get fat,
- 21:05Speaker 8: juicy lucrative government contracts, which of course only existed because
- 21:09Speaker 8: the government had created out of whole cloth of a
- 21:15Speaker 8: panic amongst citizens and through it all insisted they were
- 21:20Speaker 8: the old only people that could possibly protect you from it. So,
- 21:28Speaker 8: of course, why wouldn't Elaine Lauria feather her ownness. She's
- 21:33Speaker 8: out here to protect people, but you know, why not
- 21:35Speaker 8: make a little sum something on the side. Investing other

- 23:06Speaker 7: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 7: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16Speaker 7: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports
- 23:20Speaker 7: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25Speaker 7: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31Speaker 7: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:35Speaker 7: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40Speaker 7: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 7: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48Speaker 7: your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53Speaker 7: center of our profession. For more information on AI and

- 28:11Speaker 2: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today, MAC.
- 28:16Speaker 8: Is on vacation this week. And if you're listening to
- 28:20Speaker 8: us on WGSO or a Wonderful affiliate there in the
- 28:24Speaker 8: Big Easy watch out for a kind of glazed looking
- 28:27Speaker 8: man and his Norwegian wife as they lay siege to
- 28:37Speaker 8: your wonderful city there. No, seriously, he's just enjoying it.
- 28:41Speaker 8: And please make sure he remembers to go visit the
- 28:44Speaker 8: World War Two museum. He promised me anyway. In his stead,
- 28:51Speaker 8: I told him I would keep things in my own notebook.
- 28:55Speaker 8: And I know it's not a huge deal in the
- 29:00Speaker 8: world of sports, you know Major League Baseball trade deadline
- 29:04Speaker 8: or you know training camps, et cetera. And I'm not
- 29:08Speaker 8: even sure I'm going to say the guy's name, right,
- 29:10Speaker 8: but the Tour de France wrapped up over the weekend
- 29:15Speaker 8: tazed Pogacar Pogasar. I guess it would be Pogasar. I'm
- 29:22Speaker 8: going to say today's Pogasar, and if I'm wrong, I'm sorry,
- 29:26Speaker 8: But I'm really not here to talk about today's Pogasar.
- 29:30Speaker 8: He won his fifth Tour de France, and it reminded
- 29:35Speaker 8: me of a time not all that long ago, when
- 29:40Speaker 8: American Lance Armstrong won seven Tour de France titles on
- 29:49Speaker 8: his way to the record books and then ignominity under
- 29:55Speaker 8: a doping scandal. Now I understand that Lance's doping was
- 30:00Speaker 8: a blood thinner designed to help him get more oxygen
- 30:05Speaker 8: into his blood system, and I always thought this was
- 30:11Speaker 8: interesting since we were just talking about COVID In the
- 30:14Speaker 8: last segment, I was struck by the fact that what
- 30:18Speaker 8: did Sar's cove two, the coronavirus do? What function was
- 30:25Speaker 8: it taught in the Wuhan labs. It was taught to
- 30:30Speaker 8: block your body's ability to transmit oxygen from the lungs
- 30:38Speaker 8: into the blood vessels running through them.
- 30:42Speaker 10: That was what it did.
- 30:42Speaker 8: That's why ivermectin became effective against it. Yes, he said,
- 30:50Speaker 8: ivermectin at the peril of being canceled. But at this
- 30:53Speaker 8: point everyone's too busy wondering what happened with open Ai
- 30:57Speaker 8: and huggy face to be worried about what you and
- 30:59Speaker 8: I are to talking about right now. I always thought, well,
- 31:03Speaker 8: can't somebody go ask Lance Armstrong what the stuff was
- 31:06Speaker 8: that he was using to get more oxygen into his blood.
- 31:09Speaker 8: Maybe we could use that to treat COVID patients. But again,
- 31:15Speaker 8: bad shoe, two wrongs making a right you know how
- 31:19Speaker 8: that goes. I was struck reminded of a story so
- 31:24Speaker 8: that we used to work out of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, And
- 31:28Speaker 8: when we were in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, one of the regular
- 31:32Speaker 8: contributors to my Top forty show was a fellow named
- 31:36Speaker 8: Floyd Landis. Floyd Landis is a key figure because after
- 31:41Speaker 8: a very successful mountain biking career, he was hired was
- 31:45Speaker 8: a post office but they had moved on. But he
- 31:48Speaker 8: had been hired to ride on Lance Armstrong's team because
- 31:55Speaker 8: you know, you have this peloton and you have to
- 31:58Speaker 8: have a team of guys riding with you, so it's whatever.
- 32:02Speaker 8: So he had been hired out of Lancaster, so this
- 32:05Speaker 8: was kind of cool. We would get this guy who
- 32:07Speaker 8: was on the Tour de France team to call in.
- 32:09Speaker 8: His family was from Lancaster, and everyone was excited. It
- 32:12Speaker 8: was a great local news story. Until Floyd goes out
- 32:17Speaker 8: and wins his own Tour Defrance after the fall of Lance,
- 32:21Speaker 8: and then Floyd admits to doing the same stuff Lance did,
- 32:26Speaker 8: and I think, begrudgingly to a degree, started to blow
- 32:31Speaker 8: the whistle on all the doping that was going on
- 32:37Speaker 8: in the Tour de France. Performance enhancing compounds and you stop.
- 32:48Speaker 8: And the argument at the time was, well, if it
- 32:51Speaker 8: just helps you get more oxygen into your blood, isn't
- 32:54Speaker 8: that a good thing for an athlete? Why don't we
- 32:57Speaker 8: just make everyone take it? I mean there are the
- 33:00Speaker 8: thanks to it. But that was the thing. Other teams
- 33:03Speaker 8: didn't know about, this proprietary compound that helped oxygen get
- 33:09Speaker 8: into your blood more thoroughly, so it was cheating. They
- 33:16Speaker 8: had an advantage pharmaceutically to other bikers in the world.
- 33:21Speaker 8: And you know, Lance has since then disappeared. Every now
- 33:27Speaker 8: and then pops up, but Floyd Landis will go around
- 33:34Speaker 8: pretty much anywhere and talk about performance enhancing drugs and
- 33:39Speaker 8: we had a lot of fun with it at the time.
- 33:43Speaker 8: You know, you know, I would get tested quote unquote
- 33:47Speaker 8: by the FCC live on the air and I went home.
- 33:50Speaker 8: I actually went home and I was I was going
- 33:55Speaker 8: away on vacation anyway. But the bit was that I
- 33:59Speaker 8: was suspect ended for a week by the FCC for
- 34:03Speaker 8: breaking their anti doping policies because I had too much
- 34:07Speaker 8: caffeine in my blood system. You see, you see what
- 34:10Speaker 8: as the gag was, but as serious because young people
- 34:15Speaker 8: take performance enhancing chemicals. But where is the boundary line?
- 34:20Speaker 8: I always are asked that what is the boundary line?
- 34:23Speaker 8: What is just good for you? And what is performance enhancing?
- 34:31Speaker 8: Because you could you know, each the Keto diet is
- 34:36Speaker 8: that considered performance enhancing Serena Williams. This came up when
- 34:44Speaker 8: Serena was coming back to the US Open and I said, well,
- 34:47Speaker 8: or Wimbledon, whatever it was, coming back to professional tennis
- 34:52Speaker 8: after going through GLP one. I'm not getting paid to
- 34:56Speaker 8: give her a plug, but she was taking one of
- 34:58Speaker 8: the g l P one triggering shots lost weight, Like,
- 35:04Speaker 8: is that considered performance enhancing? Because you know this is
- 35:14Speaker 8: where you know getting an edge a NASCAR Jeff Gordon's team,
- 35:23Speaker 8: the Rainbow Warriors back in the eighties were accused of
- 35:26Speaker 8: cheating because they paid to have a pit crew, a
- 35:31Speaker 8: permanent pit crew fly around with the team rather than
- 35:36Speaker 8: just hiring a bunch of guys from the local tracks
- 35:39Speaker 8: to change tires on the race cars, gaining them anywhere
- 35:43Speaker 8: from three to five seconds every pit stop. That's cheating.
- 35:47Speaker 8: They wanted the league to ban the practice. Now everyone
- 35:52Speaker 8: does it, But was it cheating or was This is
- 35:56Speaker 8: where we get ourselves into trouble. What are you willing
- 36:00Speaker 8: to do for performance enhancement? Is having an AI software
- 36:11Speaker 8: going out and looking for local news stories from all
- 36:14Speaker 8: the cities that were affiliated in performance enhancing? Should I
- 36:20Speaker 8: be in trouble with the FCC because I do something
- 36:23Speaker 8: performance enhancing using artificial intelligence, and every year the idea
- 36:37Speaker 8: of who is enhancing their performance or is it elevating
- 36:43Speaker 8: your performance? You know, you go back to Barry Bonds
- 36:47Speaker 8: and we just had the Baseball Hall of Fame inductions
- 36:50Speaker 8: over the weekend. Mark McGuire, Sammy Sosa, these folks who
- 36:57Speaker 8: were all caught up in the mark was the name Canseco,
- 37:00Speaker 8: Jose Canseco. All these folks, Vary Bonds certainly the most
- 37:05Speaker 8: notable of the dopers. They were taking a steroid that
- 37:12Speaker 8: kept them from feeling the pain of the muscle. You
- 37:18Speaker 8: grow muscle by technically damaging it and then the scar
- 37:22Speaker 8: tissue makes it bigger and more tensile strength in the
- 37:26Speaker 8: healing over process. But you can do more of it
- 37:30Speaker 8: if you recover faster. So all the stuff they were
- 37:33Speaker 8: doing help them recover faster from their workouts so they
- 37:36Speaker 8: could do more workouts and build more muscle. Didn't actually
- 37:40Speaker 8: grow the muscle, although there was some arguments about human
- 37:44Speaker 8: growth hormones being used to help people actually grow muscle.
- 37:53Speaker 8: But I think there's a certain point where just wind
- 37:56Speaker 8: baby crosses the line. And again, as is the question.
- 38:01Speaker 15: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
- 38:04Speaker 15: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
- 38:08Speaker 15: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
- 38:11Speaker 15: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
- 38:15Speaker 15: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
- 38:19Speaker 15: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
- 38:22Speaker 15: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
- 38:26Speaker 15: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
- 38:29Speaker 15: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
- 38:33Speaker 15: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
- 38:37Speaker 15: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
- 38:41Speaker 15: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
- 38:45Speaker 15: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
- 38:49Speaker 15: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
- 38:52Speaker 15: yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves
- 38:55Speaker 15: to complete tasks. Visit Discovery education dot com to learn

- 40:33Speaker 18: Every year more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases

- 40:49Speaker 18: New macccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,

- 43:38Speaker 13: our kickball league.
- 43:39Speaker 10: Oh, I love this guy. What's your name?
- 43:43Speaker 20: You know what?
- 43:44Speaker 13: I'd love a ride when it's time to head out.
- 43:47Speaker 5: If you see a buzzed warning sign, call for a
- 43:49Speaker 5: ride when it's time to go home. Buzz driving is
- 43:52Speaker 5: drunk driving. A message from NITZA and the AD Council's radio.
- 43:56Speaker 20: It's on.
- 44:12Speaker 2: The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 44:15Speaker 2: Media Network, All natural and free of artificial intelligence.
- 44:19Speaker 13: I want to ride.
- 44:25Speaker 21: I want to ride my boy, I want to ride
- 44:29Speaker 21: my bag, I want to ride my body.
- 44:33Speaker 7: I won't you ride it? Where I.
- 44:38Speaker 10: Say why?
- 44:39Speaker 18: I said?
- 44:41Speaker 13: Said he jos was never my scene.
- 44:44Speaker 8: And I don't like Star Wars all right, So you
- 44:47Speaker 8: ride your bicycle. I like the nuance the where you go.
- 44:51Speaker 8: Terry writes in what's wrong with enhancing your performance? If
- 44:57Speaker 8: I get your implication your p out places where people
- 45:01Speaker 8: enhanced their performance got in trouble for it. But then
- 45:05Speaker 8: the and here's the thing John asks, isn't it to
- 45:11Speaker 8: the peril of somebody taking these drugs of future health risks?
- 45:16Speaker 8: More the issue we were talking about the Tour de France.
- 45:21Speaker 8: Just culminating it brings up, of course, the memories of
- 45:24Speaker 8: Lance Armstrong and for me Floyd landis because and he
- 45:28Speaker 8: wound up, he wound up winning the one after the
- 45:31Speaker 8: fall of and many people pointed to him and saying,
- 45:34Speaker 8: ah at two brute, because then he came down on
- 45:38Speaker 8: the sword as well. But in many cases these are
- 45:45Speaker 8: not illegal drugs. It's not like they were taking psilocybin
- 45:50Speaker 8: or something and finding, you know, some inebriate that gave
- 46:00Speaker 8: them special powers to ride a bicycle. These were in
- 46:04Speaker 8: many cases legal medical prescribable compounds, and that these organizations
- 46:13Speaker 8: would ban their use simply because using one might give
- 46:18Speaker 8: you an advantage of being able to get more oxygen.
- 46:22Speaker 8: Armstrong's heart alone was massive and already had been chronicled
- 46:27Speaker 8: as being able to put more things in there, more
- 46:31Speaker 8: oxygen into his blood anyway, But I think your point
- 46:38Speaker 8: is well taken regarding the legalities of these compounds, in
- 46:43Speaker 8: many cases not an illegal compound outside of the sport
- 46:47Speaker 8: that it's in, and that goes to the grander question
- 47:00Speaker 8: of performance enhancing. I brought up AI, and we're going
- 47:04Speaker 8: to get back into this Skynet moment that supposedly took
- 47:09Speaker 8: place a few days ago where one AI decided that
- 47:14Speaker 8: align in it its particular interpretation of some line of
- 47:18Speaker 8: its programming code gave it permission to hack into another
- 47:23Speaker 8: AI to complete whatever function it was set on, and
- 47:28Speaker 8: Open AI hacked into just Huggy Face. But is AI
- 47:35Speaker 8: performance enhancing if you're an investment firm and you're using AI.
- 47:43Speaker 8: I know there's one, and I don't remember which one
- 47:46Speaker 8: it was, but I read a story on Wall Street
- 47:48Speaker 8: Journal that one whole investment company is hiring people who
- 47:52Speaker 8: don't know anything about AI because they were finding too
- 47:55Speaker 8: many of their young associates were just asking AI what
- 47:59Speaker 8: the lot as stocks should be. That day, I don't
- 48:05Speaker 8: know the first thing about stock trading, so I don't
- 48:07Speaker 8: know how you would do it. But they were just
- 48:08Speaker 8: basically using AI to give their clients suggestions on what
- 48:17Speaker 8: stocks to buy. Is that performance enhancing? Certainly it's I
- 48:25Speaker 8: could go on to AI and say, hey, Chuck GTP,
- 48:30Speaker 8: tell me what stocks I should buy today, But it
- 48:36Speaker 8: goes back to trust but verify. But it also goes
- 48:39Speaker 8: back to these are humans doing things. Are the It
- 48:52Speaker 8: was Gatorade of performance enhancing compound when it was giving
- 48:57Speaker 8: you athletes at the University of Florida extra assault and
- 49:03Speaker 8: sugar to help them boost them through a sweltering hot
- 49:07Speaker 8: football game. Argument was made, argument was made that the
- 49:16Speaker 8: University of Florida had was getting an unfair advantage over
- 49:22Speaker 8: their opponents for you for being allowed to drink Gatorade.
- 49:30Speaker 8: And this comes back to one of the more controversial
- 49:33Speaker 8: things I say. All of these sports leagues and association
- 49:37Speaker 8: I think they're Marxists. They're about everybody getting you know,
- 49:44Speaker 8: I guess it starts with the right idea. They want
- 49:46Speaker 8: everyone to have an equal shot at winning, but eventually,
- 49:52Speaker 8: because we're humans, we corrupt that into we want the
- 49:56Speaker 8: team we want to win. You want the Americans to
- 49:59Speaker 8: win the Tour France because more people tune in at
- 50:03Speaker 8: three o'clock in the morning to watch the first stage
- 50:06Speaker 8: through the Champsilise, and you can make more money in
- 50:13Speaker 8: the advertising revenue. You didn't even know the Tour de
- 50:16Speaker 8: France happened this weekend, did you. The ad revenue dropped
- 50:22Speaker 8: off the floor when Lance Armstrong and the team, postal
- 50:29Speaker 8: service and all of that stopped running and the Americans
- 50:36Speaker 8: stopped winning, just like the ratings of the World Cup
- 50:39Speaker 8: went to the tank when Tbosa was housted. All of
- 50:44Speaker 8: a sudden, all those bars weren't nearly as full as
- 50:47Speaker 8: they were before, except where the Scottish national team was
- 50:51Speaker 8: so proud. But what is cheating in a society where
- 51:05Speaker 8: we're told, even looking at a list of rules like
- 51:08Speaker 8: thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor is
- 51:13Speaker 8: inappropriate to show to your children. Will let children sit
- 51:18Speaker 8: in a room and talk about their sex with a
- 51:21Speaker 8: grown adult, but we won't hang the Ten Commandments on
- 51:25Speaker 8: the board. You may say apples to oranges, but the
- 51:31Speaker 8: problem isn't the doping. The problem is the dopes, the
- 51:39Speaker 8: do gooders that are out there supposedly protecting us from ourselves,
- 51:43Speaker 8: when really just giving them another lever in which they
- 51:47Speaker 8: can manipulate outcomes, just like the congress people who invest
- 51:52Speaker 8: in stocks because they know what was about to come
- 51:56Speaker 8: in front of their House regulatory committee. And how is
- 52:03Speaker 8: that not what Pete Rose did Pete Rose's band from
- 52:06Speaker 8: his sport, like Lance Armstrong was because he wagered on games,
- 52:12Speaker 8: games that are now sponsored by Bett MGM grand What
- 52:21Speaker 8: is performance enhancing and isn't performing to the best of
- 52:26Speaker 8: your ability exactly what we should be doing? And if
- 52:30Speaker 8: you put yourself in peril in the process, think about
- 52:34Speaker 8: you know, guys who go out and try to do
- 52:37Speaker 8: embedded journalism, Nick Shirley or James O'Keefe. Aren't they putting
- 52:42Speaker 8: themselves in peril to do what they're doing?
- 52:45Speaker 20: You know?
- 52:46Speaker 8: And if it, shouldn't we regulate that to stop them
- 52:50Speaker 8: from putting themselves in today's troubled world?
- 52:52Speaker 2: Are USA Armed forces stand ready to protect you and
- 52:56Speaker 2: our American way of life when veterans return to civilian life.
