- 0:39Speaker 8: Trying to be your Joe, where I will lay out
- 0:43Speaker 8: what's gone on since last you checked, and then we'll
- 0:46Speaker 8: examine the evidence left at the crime scene and tell
- 0:50Speaker 8: you what we see in it. More importantly, though, I
- 0:54Speaker 8: want to hear how it's impacting you where you are
- 0:57Speaker 8: at four three four eight eight two four to two
- 1:01Speaker 8: one seven. That's our phone number and text message hotline.
- 1:05Speaker 8: Massively popular way for people to get in touch with
- 1:08Speaker 8: the program. So easy when you've got a mail stroam
- 1:12Speaker 8: of things to get done, whether you're on the East
- 1:14Speaker 8: coast or West coast, wherever you know you're wrapping up
- 1:17Speaker 8: your day, same thing.
- 1:18Speaker 9: I mean you everything You're like, Oh, I'll get to
- 1:20Speaker 9: that later.
- 1:21Speaker 8: And now it's later and somebody else is coming in,
- 1:24Speaker 8: and I better get this done, you know, or you
- 1:26Speaker 8: wake up and.
- 1:27Speaker 9: You're like, oh, I was gonna do this last night. Gosh,
- 1:32Speaker 9: I was thinking.
- 1:33Speaker 8: As the dust is settling in, the investigations now take
- 1:37Speaker 8: over at Bondai Beach, and we still watch in providence
- 1:42Speaker 8: at Brown University in these stories now kind of settle
- 1:46Speaker 8: into that great expanse of nothingness. As the Great Gatsby
- 1:53Speaker 8: referred to it was, that's actually where I grew up.
- 1:56Speaker 8: I grew up on the western edge of the great
- 1:58Speaker 8: expanse of nothingness. You're a literary fan, But in the
- 2:03Speaker 8: news world, these crises, these flashpoint moments, leave long expanses
- 2:09Speaker 8: of nothingness where it's very hard because the press wants
- 2:14Speaker 8: to share information with listeners and viewers who have been
- 2:18Speaker 8: shocked by these stories and now want to know what
- 2:22Speaker 8: the heck is going on, and that's usually not how
- 2:25Speaker 8: it works, especially when there's the chance that there might
- 2:30Speaker 8: be prosecutions. If assailants have already assumed room temperature, like
- 2:37Speaker 8: in Butler, Pennsylvania, you would expect there wouldn't be that concern.
- 2:44Speaker 8: Of course, that's what makes the silence that comes from Butler, Pennsylvania.
- 2:48Speaker 8: All that interesting and is that part and parcel of
- 2:51Speaker 8: why Dan Bongino is getting.
- 2:53Speaker 9: Ready to leave the FBI.
- 2:54Speaker 8: I got that story for you, but I wanted to
- 2:56Speaker 8: take a moment because on the same weekend, and this
- 3:01Speaker 8: this is a weird place. So on the same weekend,
- 3:08Speaker 8: one of the most important figures in entertainment history turned
- 3:14Speaker 8: one hundred years old, and one of the most important
- 3:17Speaker 8: figures in his life loses a grandson and a son.
- 3:26Speaker 8: Grandson still alive, obviously, but it's about to stand trial.
- 3:29Speaker 8: And I'm speaking of the Reiner family. I mentioned often
- 3:34Speaker 8: when I talk about the emails and the text messages
- 3:38Speaker 8: and the comments that you guys provide.
- 3:41Speaker 9: I compare you to the.
- 3:42Speaker 8: Writing team of Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows. I
- 3:46Speaker 8: wasn't old enough to watch your Show of Shows. I've
- 3:48Speaker 8: gone back and watched footage. YouTube has whatever you can find.
- 3:57Speaker 8: But Sid Caesar was the host of the show. His
- 4:00Speaker 8: writers included Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Larry Gelbart, and Carl Reiner.
- 4:09Speaker 8: Carl and Mel became fast friends as a wonderful episode
- 4:13Speaker 8: of comedians and cars getting Coffee. Jerry Seinfeld thing that
- 4:19Speaker 8: I think it's on Netflix or Prime Videos wherever it is,
- 4:23Speaker 8: where he sits down instead of going out for coffee
- 4:25Speaker 8: with mel Brooks and Carl Reiner, he orders Chinese food
- 4:28Speaker 8: and brings it in. They sit and they just chat
- 4:31Speaker 8: about comedy and that kind of stuff, and he watch
- 4:33Speaker 8: this camaraderie that's gone on forever. And a man who
- 4:37Speaker 8: has truly defined comedy, but produced and starred in the
- 4:41Speaker 8: Dick Van Dyke Show.
- 4:45Speaker 9: He was Alan Brady. He was playing.
- 4:49Speaker 8: Sid Caesar on this show that basically took you inside
- 4:53Speaker 8: the writer's room and changed television the way it was
- 4:57Speaker 8: seen and done.
- 4:58Speaker 9: And movies still, you know, into the Oceans movies and
- 5:03Speaker 9: his son.
- 5:04Speaker 8: You look at the movies Harry met Sally and spinal
- 5:07Speaker 8: taps certainly, and whether you liked his politics or not,
- 5:11Speaker 8: as I think somebody said yesterday on the program, you
- 5:13Speaker 8: had to respect the stories that he was able to
- 5:17Speaker 8: tell and to see it circle all the way around
- 5:21Speaker 8: to this tragic end. And law enforcement has their son
- 5:27Speaker 8: Nick in custody, and I guess.
- 5:30Speaker 9: The one thing you can.
- 5:34Speaker 8: Pray for is that they're spared the you know, the
- 5:37Speaker 8: pain of watching their son get arrested. For a horrific crime,
- 5:45Speaker 8: but it's just one of those if you're a parent,
- 5:48Speaker 8: you feel it, you know it, you're there with it.
- 5:51Speaker 8: But the Reiner family and their impact on American culture,
- 5:57Speaker 8: I mean even folks like James Woods talking about his
- 6:00Speaker 8: castings and those sorts of things. So our first things
- 6:04Speaker 8: this morning include the fact no news here back to
- 6:07Speaker 8: you in Australia, as the authorities do say that the
- 6:12Speaker 8: father and son that shot up the Jewish Honukkah celebration
- 6:17Speaker 8: at Von Dai Beach packed their vehicle with IED's explosives,
- 6:22Speaker 8: homemade ISIS flags and now they're describing it as an
- 6:27Speaker 8: ISIS inspired terrorist attack. Meanwhile, Ahmed al Ahmed, the Australian
- 6:32Speaker 8: immigrant who wrestled the gun away from one of the
- 6:35Speaker 8: shooters involved in the terror attack, is, according to his lawyer,
- 6:40Speaker 8: riddled with bullets and struggling at the moment, he said
- 6:44Speaker 8: of the father of forty four, who has two preteen daughters.
- 6:49Speaker 9: And those are some of our first things.
- 6:51Speaker 8: We'll tell you more coming up on this Tuesday morning

- 8:04Speaker 1: Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 1: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 1: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 1: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 1: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 1: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 1: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 1: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 1: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 1: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 1: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 9:58Speaker 13: Hi everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
- 10:01Speaker 13: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 13: I'm not only in alle of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 13: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:08Speaker 13: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 13: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 10:15Speaker 13: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 10:17Speaker 13: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 10:21Speaker 13: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 10:23Speaker 13: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 10:25Speaker 13: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 10:29Speaker 13: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 10:32Speaker 13: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 10:35Speaker 13: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
- 10:38Speaker 13: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 10:41Speaker 13: a change.
- 10:41Speaker 3: In their blood chemistry.
- 10:43Speaker 13: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
- 10:45Speaker 13: contribute to society and help those in need. So please
- 10:48Speaker 13: join me an American Humane and supporting our heroic working
- 10:51Speaker 13: dogs and all the amazing animals on this planet we
- 10:54Speaker 13: inhabit together. Go to American Humane dot org to learn more.

- 13:11Speaker 3: Twitter First thing today on the Talk Media Network by
- 13:15Speaker 3: Joe Thomas, the second most famous Thomas in Charlottesville.
- 13:35Speaker 8: So then get into all of this as we try
- 13:38Speaker 8: to break it all down into easily digestible pieces of
- 13:42Speaker 8: four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
- 13:45Speaker 8: And I know you're trying to get all the Christmas done,
- 13:48Speaker 8: and you get the deep into the Honikkah celebrations and
- 13:53Speaker 8: trying to make sense of the terror that is tearing
- 13:58Speaker 8: at you.
- 14:00Speaker 9: And how does a terror attack work, what does it do?
- 14:08Speaker 8: Why is it effective? Because it weaponizes the very things
- 14:12Speaker 8: that you hold dear, whether it be easy, if you know,
- 14:18Speaker 8: interstate air travel or a beautiful beach to celebrate your
- 14:26Speaker 8: life on. And it's pure, unadulterated hatred, and it's born
- 14:35Speaker 8: and lives and breathes in the efforts to make you
- 14:40Speaker 8: stop doing the things that you love to.
- 14:44Speaker 9: Do, pure and simple.
- 14:50Speaker 8: Its whole agenda terror is to make you stop doing
- 14:54Speaker 8: the things that you hold dearest to your heart. And
- 15:03Speaker 8: the planners, the plotters, have a bigger societal goal. The
- 15:10Speaker 8: caliphate is born of dismissing and dispatching any other theological belief.
- 15:19Speaker 8: So as the Australian authorities call what happened over the
- 15:23Speaker 8: weekend at Bandai Beach in Sydney and isis and this
- 15:29Speaker 8: is you know the lawyers and the isis inspired. They
- 15:32Speaker 8: won't come right out and say it was connected because
- 15:35Speaker 8: they you know, isis and all of these folks they
- 15:39Speaker 8: have lawyers too. But I thought, you know, here in
- 15:42Speaker 8: our flagship city. We had a fellow whose father is
- 15:46Speaker 8: an Isis General commanding officer being sent lawyers, guns and
- 15:52Speaker 8: money through American idiocy as we you know, continue to
- 15:58Speaker 8: arm those who will kill us. And Ray had written
- 16:05Speaker 8: in during the midst of the attack on the National
- 16:09Speaker 8: Guardsmen in Washington, followed by another enemy of my enemy
- 16:15Speaker 8: immigrant being caught in Waynesboro, Virginia, sending money and guns
- 16:22Speaker 8: to his dad back in Afghanistan, Ray cautioned that we
- 16:28Speaker 8: again try to make this all about an ethnicity or
- 16:32Speaker 8: a religion.
- 16:36Speaker 9: The religion is authoritarianism. The religion is dictatorship.
- 16:46Speaker 8: And just like the thugs who went out at Hitler's
- 16:50Speaker 8: command to bust up the Jewish community on Crystal Knocked,
- 16:57Speaker 8: the agenda is terror or the agenda is I give up,
- 17:03Speaker 8: I don't want this, get me out of here, or
- 17:06Speaker 8: I will stop.
- 17:07Speaker 9: Doing what it is you want me to do.
- 17:09Speaker 8: It's all about appeasement, capitulation, and the only way to
- 17:17Speaker 8: fight terror is to not allow it to change who
- 17:22Speaker 8: you are what you do. That's actually a mattic. On
- 17:29Speaker 8: an immediate level, this Ahmed al Ahmed, the Muslim man
- 17:34Speaker 8: who attacked the shooters to stop them trying to recover
- 17:43Speaker 8: from what can only be described as a Quentin Tarantino
- 17:50Speaker 8: level or Sam Heck and Paul level shooting. Is as
- 17:54Speaker 8: he went to attack one of the shooters, he's riddled
- 17:59Speaker 8: with bullets. As acording to his lawyer, two million dollars
- 18:06Speaker 8: has been raised in a GoFundMe for the victims of.
- 18:11Speaker 9: The terror attack.
- 18:16Speaker 8: But in all of this, the police are spending very
- 18:19Speaker 8: little time talking about the one they have in custody.
- 18:22Speaker 9: What have you found from him?
- 18:25Speaker 8: Their vehicle was filled with ISIS flags. Sounds like they
- 18:30Speaker 8: were handmade. Have you seen an ISIS flag that takes
- 18:34Speaker 8: a little bit of work to handmake an ISIS flag
- 18:37Speaker 8: unless you just got a black flag and some white letters.
- 18:46Speaker 9: Duct taped in.
- 18:47Speaker 8: There are some white duct tape on a black flag
- 18:49Speaker 8: that says ISIS, and it's made to make you give
- 19:00Speaker 8: up the things that you hold dear willingly in exchange
- 19:07Speaker 8: for making the terror stop. And the appeasement is so
- 19:16Speaker 8: dangerous because it's not even to a geopolitical level. This
- 19:22Speaker 8: is individual thuggery. This is the mobs of Chicago with
- 19:28Speaker 8: fewer laws. This is an ideology that's hell bent on
- 19:39Speaker 8: replacing the very thing that it's grown in its company
- 19:45Speaker 8: of America's freedom of religion is being weaponized, just like
- 19:52Speaker 8: a beautiful beach in a peaceful area or gun free
- 19:57Speaker 8: zone laws. A friend of mine, former Commonwealth's attorney, was
- 20:03Speaker 8: telling me yesterday, said there was a shooting in Washington,
- 20:08Speaker 8: d C. When he was serving in Congress. And he said,
- 20:14Speaker 8: they said they did the overlays. There were six concurrent
- 20:18Speaker 8: gun free zones if he went to the very exact
- 20:22Speaker 8: spot where the shooting took place, six from various locations
- 20:29Speaker 8: aside from and in incorporate with Washington, DC's own gun band.
- 20:41Speaker 8: And yet this is what the Prime Minister wants to do.
- 20:44Speaker 8: Benjamin net and Yahoo's called him out saying he's pouring
- 20:47Speaker 8: gasoline on anti Semitism. Even folks like John Fetterman are
- 20:55Speaker 8: calling out his own party for suborning the from the
- 20:58Speaker 8: rivers to the sea, the antisemitism that has run amok
- 21:08Speaker 8: in this But it don't be fooled by the antisemitism.
- 21:12Speaker 8: They want to get rid of everyone that doesn't follow
- 21:17Speaker 8: their religious text, and that includes lest we forget a
- 21:24Speaker 8: whole lot of other Muslims, the heretics, the terrorists.
- 21:32Speaker 9: Will kill more Muslims.
- 21:34Speaker 8: In a year because they don't go along and that
- 21:37Speaker 8: makes them really mad. Then they'll even kill Jews and Christians.
- 21:46Speaker 8: So let's not pretend this is some upstart government trying
- 21:50Speaker 8: to wrest freedom from an occupying force. These are terrorists
- 21:58Speaker 8: trying to make you give up what you do.
- 22:01Speaker 20: Hey, Brandt, And her name is Shay I love. She's
- 22:04Speaker 20: a friend of mine whom we were just praying for
- 22:07Speaker 20: because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 21: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11Speaker 21: talk about all the time, which is meta share. That
- 22:14Speaker 21: is right.
- 22:14Speaker 20: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 20: and health care ability?
- 22:18Speaker 21: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is when
- 22:21Speaker 21: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
- 22:24Speaker 21: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27Speaker 21: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:30Speaker 21: call in with your need that is just refreshing. Yes,
- 22:34Speaker 21: that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 20: I keep telling people people love meda share and they
- 22:38Speaker 20: love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
- 22:41Speaker 20: dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 21: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
- 22:46Speaker 21: and I mean different in a very very good way.
- 22:48Speaker 20: It is good different call now. They're easy to talk
- 22:51Speaker 20: to and you can get a price within two minutes.
- 22:53Speaker 20: Call eight five five share forty.
- 22:55Speaker 4: That's eight five five s h a r E forty
- 22:58Speaker 4: eight five five share.
- 23:01Speaker 16: Hi.
- 23:01Speaker 5: I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary Medical Association.
- 23:06Speaker 5: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 5: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed

- 24:07Speaker 1: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 1: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 1: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 1: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 1: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 1: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 1: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 1: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 1: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 29:09Speaker 8: Here's what are your thoughts about Trump's post truth social
- 29:14Speaker 8: over the weekend about Rob Reiner? All right, So, as
- 29:20Speaker 8: somebody who without any reason outside of the fact that
- 29:27Speaker 8: I just want to be a fair arbiter, and ever
- 29:30Speaker 8: since our summer of discontent here in Charlottesville, I feel
- 29:40Speaker 8: like there's too much in the press that goes on
- 29:43Speaker 8: that mischaracterizes stuff that Trump says, and it goes beyond
- 29:49Speaker 8: that because they've now franchised it off to guys like
- 29:53Speaker 8: Ron DeSantis and Mike Johnson, and they'll take something Dan
- 29:59Speaker 8: Bongino great example of conservatives that will be misquoted.
- 30:03Speaker 9: Or parsed, and.
- 30:07Speaker 8: Then the reactions will be to the parsing. So in
- 30:22Speaker 8: his truth social he said Reiner and his wife were
- 30:25Speaker 8: killed reportedly due to the anger he caused others through
- 30:29Speaker 8: his massive, unyielding and incurable addiction with a mind crippling
- 30:34Speaker 8: disease known as Trump derangement syndrome that Reiner was known
- 30:42Speaker 8: to have driven people crazy by his raging obsession with
- 30:46Speaker 8: Donald Trump, with obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the
- 30:51Speaker 8: Trump administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness now
- 31:05Speaker 8: he knew them personally. Reiner's wife was the photographer for
- 31:14Speaker 8: the book Jacket Art of the Deal. Doesn't mean he
- 31:20Speaker 8: liked it. And you know, and as I said, when
- 31:22Speaker 8: I met Rob Reiner the one time, it was at
- 31:26Speaker 8: the two thousand National Governors Association conference in State College,
- 31:32Speaker 8: and I mean, he couldn't help himself.
- 31:34Speaker 9: Just somebody appreciated. He blowhearted all over me.
- 31:39Speaker 8: He was just so full And it was one of
- 31:42Speaker 8: my first instances where I felt like, Okay, this guy
- 31:45Speaker 8: has got a lot of celebrity, and he's done a
- 31:47Speaker 8: lot of great movies and that, but it.
- 31:51Speaker 9: Just seemed like he was.
- 31:54Speaker 8: Being propped up as this vox popular. I'm not pleased
- 32:06Speaker 8: that he made it about Trump about himself, about Trump
- 32:10Speaker 8: Derangement syndrome, but you know, believe me, it's a real thing.
- 32:15Speaker 9: I've seen it.
- 32:18Speaker 8: It appears from what we're told that this had more
- 32:22Speaker 8: to do with Nick Reiner's drug addictions, his own demons,
- 32:33Speaker 8: and unfortunately this has become the cult of personality that
- 32:39Speaker 8: our American society has devolved to. You can't I've described
- 32:45Speaker 8: this where I can't watch movies that my wife and
- 32:48Speaker 8: I love. John Cusack is a great example. When I
- 32:50Speaker 8: met my wife, she told me she was the biggest
- 32:56Speaker 8: John Cusack movie fan you could across. And we've seen
- 33:05Speaker 8: them all, even that when he did with Samuel L. Jackson,
- 33:09Speaker 8: the freaky you know, Hotel Room one was it fourteen
- 33:13Speaker 8: thirteen or whatever it was, that was creepy, crazy nightmare creating,
- 33:20Speaker 8: fitful sleep generating. But we watched it anyway because John
- 33:25Speaker 8: Cusack was in it. My wife just loved, you know,
- 33:28Speaker 8: serendipity and high fidelity, and the weird one he did
- 33:36Speaker 8: with Billy Crystal America's Sweethearts. We've seen them all. And
- 33:42Speaker 8: then John Cusack opens his mouth and starts talking about Trump,
- 33:46Speaker 8: and my wife's like, I can't watch his movies anymore.
- 33:48Speaker 8: He's a and I'm like, what do we know about
- 33:53Speaker 8: Humphrey Bogart's political stands?
- 33:56Speaker 9: Nothing?
- 33:58Speaker 8: And that was better because that stuff distracts from your
- 34:02Speaker 8: ability to tell a story. In my view, so was
- 34:07Speaker 8: Rob Reiner obsessed with Donald Trump? Probably, But when I
- 34:11Speaker 8: met him in two thousand, he didn't care one lick
- 34:14Speaker 8: about Donald Trump.
- 34:16Speaker 9: He was bent out of shape about George W. Bush,
- 34:22Speaker 9: and George W.
- 34:22Speaker 8: Bush wasn't even president yet. He hated conservative politics. He
- 34:35Speaker 8: felt like we were.
- 34:36Speaker 9: Disingenuous goobs that were just lying to people.
- 34:40Speaker 8: I get this all the time from folks who tell me, oh, Joe,
- 34:44Speaker 8: you go closest. Dearest friends of mine still to this
- 34:50Speaker 8: day will tell his brother Joe doesn't believe all this
- 34:53Speaker 8: stuff he talks about. This is all an act, to
- 34:57Speaker 8: which I've often said, when was I ever that good
- 35:00Speaker 8: of an actor? But the cult of personality that has
- 35:08Speaker 8: built around Donald Trump is an avatar for conservative and
- 35:18Speaker 8: Rob Reiner couldn't stand conservatives. He couldn't stand conservative policy.
- 35:26Speaker 8: And I think some of it is born. And I've
- 35:28Speaker 8: told you this in the past. Many people in the
- 35:30Speaker 8: popularity industry, which you are in, if you're making movies
- 35:34Speaker 8: or TV shows or radio programs, you are in a
- 35:38Speaker 8: popularity business.
- 35:40Speaker 9: Period.
- 35:42Speaker 8: The whole point of this program is to be popular
- 35:45Speaker 8: enough so that people hear the message. That we're sharing
- 35:49Speaker 8: the news that we're sharing, and it's not, you know,
- 35:55Speaker 8: right wrong or indifferent. It just is what it is.
- 35:57Speaker 8: But what it does is creates this affinity to the pander.
- 36:05Speaker 8: So when somebody says, well, I'm gonna make sure everyone
- 36:08Speaker 8: gets healthcare, well, then you know the pandora says, well,
- 36:13Speaker 8: that sounds like a good idea to me. They don't
- 36:18Speaker 8: read the fine print and they just go along with it,
- 36:21Speaker 8: and they think they're helping. They think that this is
- 36:26Speaker 8: what they can do to help. So I don't think
- 36:29Speaker 8: it was as horrible as the press is making it
- 36:32Speaker 8: out to be. And although I don't put it in
- 36:38Speaker 8: the same pantheon of very fine people either, because Donald
- 36:44Speaker 8: Trump was so horribly mischaracterized in the Very Fine People
- 36:48Speaker 8: comment that we keep it here to remind people of
- 36:54Speaker 8: the mania given to you parsing Donald Trump's words. But
- 37:04Speaker 8: he's not wrong that Rob Reiner couldn't stand conservatives, and
- 37:08Speaker 8: currently Donald Trump is the symbol of conservatism. But that
- 37:18Speaker 8: being said, guys like James Woods guy saved my career
- 37:21Speaker 8: by putting me in Mississippi's burning because at the end
- 37:28Speaker 8: of the day, it's about telling a story and if
- 37:31Speaker 8: your politics keeps you people from seeing your story, then
- 37:34Speaker 8: you're not doing the story any service.
- 37:39Speaker 9: And you know, look.
- 37:40Speaker 8: At the success of Angels Studios and what they've been
- 37:44Speaker 8: able to do by not going along with the America
- 37:49Speaker 8: bad ethos. Does that mean America can't be criticized for
- 37:54Speaker 8: doing something wrong. Yeah, but you've got to dig into
- 37:56Speaker 8: it and you actually have to find out what's going on.
- 37:58Speaker 9: So I hope that answered your question.
- 38:02Speaker 15: Hi, it's Mark Falter, hosts of the Financial Fitness Show.
- 38:05Speaker 15: I strongly believe that no one should ever pay one
- 38:08Speaker 15: penny more in taxes than they are legally obligated. Unfortunately,
- 38:13Speaker 15: for most hard working Americans, this just isn't the case.
- 38:16Speaker 15: Why because most people spend more time planning next weekends
- 38:20Speaker 15: getaway than trying to ensure they're going to pay less
- 38:23Speaker 15: than taxes. My Financial Fitness team has put together some
- 38:26Speaker 15: materials that I know are going to help you. It's

- 44:33Speaker 8: Rob Reiner and I just took a shot here over
- 44:37Speaker 8: text message, Joe, you didn't read Donald Trump's entire statement,
- 44:41Speaker 8: I have it here, and you broke your promise. Okay,
- 44:45Speaker 8: So here is the entirety of it. A very sad
- 44:50Speaker 8: thing happened last.
- 44:52Speaker 9: Night in Hollywood.
- 44:53Speaker 8: Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling but once very talented
- 44:57Speaker 8: movie director and comedy star, has passed away together with
- 45:01Speaker 8: his wife Michelle, reportedly due to the anger he caused
- 45:05Speaker 8: others through his massive, unyielding and incurable affliction with a
- 45:10Speaker 8: mind crippling disease known as Trump derangement syndrome, sometimes referred
- 45:16Speaker 8: to as TDS. He was known to have driven people
- 45:20Speaker 8: crazy with his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump,
- 45:25Speaker 8: with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump
- 45:28Speaker 8: administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with
- 45:34Speaker 8: the golden Age of America upon us apparently like never before,
- 45:39Speaker 8: perhaps like never before.
- 45:40Speaker 9: So there you go.
- 45:41Speaker 8: That's the whole thing. And we don't know because Nick's
- 45:50Speaker 8: supposed to make his first court appearance today. Maybe he
- 45:55Speaker 8: was a Trump supporter. And here's how you know, Oh,
- 46:00Speaker 8: Nick Reiner wasn't a Trump supporter, because if he was,
- 46:05Speaker 8: that's all the news would be about. You wouldn't even
- 46:07Speaker 8: get coverage of Bondai Beach just as a prospective check here.
- 46:19Speaker 8: So the people who were in President Trump making it
- 46:22Speaker 8: out that this was what drove Nick crazy.
- 46:25Speaker 9: Perhaps I don't.
- 46:25Speaker 8: Know, keeping in mind that President Trump has more access
- 46:34Speaker 8: to oh I don't.
- 46:35Speaker 9: Know, the FBI and that kind of thing.
- 46:38Speaker 8: But at that point when he posted that, it was
- 46:47Speaker 8: speculation at best. But there you are maya kulpa for that.
- 46:58Speaker 8: But in the zeichst of criticizing conservatives.
- 47:05Speaker 9: Which Rob Reiner loved to do.
- 47:12Speaker 8: The only problem I have with many people who do
- 47:17Speaker 8: that sort of political satire is when they won't be
- 47:21Speaker 8: fair brokers, when they'll look the other way when somebody
- 47:25Speaker 8: like Joe Biden and Hunter Biden come along and they
- 47:30Speaker 8: blindly say yes, but they're caring, or they they cover
- 47:35Speaker 8: for them under the banner.
- 47:37Speaker 9: Of yes, but they're caring.
- 47:40Speaker 8: Because for every time a conservative politician shows up in
- 47:45Speaker 8: a bathroom, airport bathroom trying to pick up young male prostitutes,
- 47:51Speaker 8: there are plenty of Hunter Biden's out there and Clinton
- 47:55Speaker 8: family foundations who are perhaps even worse because they partake
- 48:03Speaker 8: in a corruption that begins with abject falsehoods to the
- 48:09Speaker 8: American people, the bait and switch of the Patient Protection
- 48:17Speaker 8: Affordable Care Act. These if guys like Rob Reiner called
- 48:25Speaker 8: out that hypocrisy at an equal level that they called
- 48:30Speaker 8: out conservatives who didn't behave that way. And I've told
- 48:34Speaker 8: you this before one of my favorite movies of all time,
- 48:36Speaker 8: and I'm telling you right now, Nathan Lane better keep
- 48:42Speaker 8: his freaking nose clean, because I can't lose too many
- 48:45Speaker 8: more films to watch. Joe Peshy better keep his mouth
- 48:49Speaker 8: shut about his politics because right now my movie watching
- 48:54Speaker 8: with my wife on date Night are basically The Bird
- 48:56Speaker 8: Cage and my cousin Vinnie and anything else I have
- 49:01Speaker 8: to pre watch to make sure it's not, you know,
- 49:03Speaker 8: bashing Trump or anything, or none of the stars have
- 49:09Speaker 8: done something that has driven my wife off their reservation,
- 49:12Speaker 8: like Mel Gibson or John Cusack.
- 49:21Speaker 9: Well.
- 49:21Speaker 8: One of the reasons I enjoy The Bird Cage, aside
- 49:24Speaker 8: from it being riotously funny, is it sends up guys
- 49:29Speaker 8: who portend conservatism when they really are doing it for
- 49:41Speaker 8: the act, for the appearance of for your support and
- 49:47Speaker 8: my support. Those people drive me crazy when they say
- 49:51Speaker 8: things like gosh, if we only had a grassroots movement
- 49:55Speaker 8: and then confronted with the Tea Party say, these people
- 49:57Speaker 8: need to be getting to get these people out of here. Well,
- 50:00Speaker 8: you wanted a grassroots movement, we got you a grassroots movie. Yeah,
- 50:03Speaker 8: but they don't know what's going on in Washington. They're
- 50:06Speaker 8: quoting the Constitution, who is nut clusters And I mean
- 50:10Speaker 8: I've had those conversations with career Republicans. So yeah, there's
- 50:18Speaker 8: a part of this program that will send up and
- 50:21Speaker 8: or lampoon Republicans in the same way Gene Hackman's character
- 50:26Speaker 8: in The Birdcage sent up the idea of these conservatives
- 50:32Speaker 8: in name only. We just don't have anyone on the
- 50:41Speaker 8: laft that will do the same thing. And when somebody does,
- 50:44Speaker 8: like a Bill Maher, he becomes immediately a pariah.
- 50:52Speaker 9: John Stewart.
- 50:53Speaker 8: These folks, you know, when they come out of the
- 50:56Speaker 8: closet and they actually try to be a fair broker
- 51:00Speaker 8: with the idea of you know who who deserves criticism
- 51:04Speaker 8: and satire, they they get run off the reservation faster
- 51:13Speaker 8: than anyone else. And it's a shame because it really
- 51:16Speaker 8: is unfair to them. And you know, and I know
- 51:22Speaker 8: it's esoteric to talk about, you know, Rob Reiner and
- 51:25Speaker 8: his wife and their murder.
- 51:27Speaker 9: But we really didn't have a.
- 51:29Speaker 8: Chance in the all consuming manhunt in Providence and the
- 51:34Speaker 8: shocking images off of Bondai Beach in Australia yesterday morning.
- 51:39Speaker 8: So today's program does have a certain level of clearing
- 51:42Speaker 8: the decks of other stuff that we didn't get a
- 51:45Speaker 8: chance to chop up and try to digest thoroughly.
- 51:51Speaker 9: Yesterday morning.
- 51:53Speaker 8: Let me get to you at four three four eight
- 51:55Speaker 8: eight two four two one seven. Good morning, you're on
- 51:57Speaker 8: the air, first thing this morning with Joe.
- 51:59Speaker 9: Who's this Good morning? Joe's Joel, Hey, Joel, what's on
- 52:02Speaker 9: your mind?
- 52:04Speaker 7: Well, in nineteen eighty eight, there was a movie called
- 52:08Speaker 7: They Live and it was by John Carpenter and if
- 52:13Speaker 7: you put he found like these sunglasses. At the time,
- 52:17Speaker 7: they were probably pretty cool, and I forget all the actors.
- 52:21Speaker 7: I think it was Roddy Roddy Piper or whatever, and
- 52:24Speaker 7: he put it on, put the glasses on, and he
- 52:27Speaker 7: looked up in one of the scenes as he looks
- 52:29Speaker 7: up and there's a billboard and it says obey and
- 52:31Speaker 7: then he takes them off. And it was a different scene,
- 52:35Speaker 7: but everybody that was walking around saw what was on
- 52:39Speaker 7: the billboard versus what he actually saw. I supposedly brought
- 52:42Speaker 7: out the truth.
- 52:43Speaker 9: And oh yeah.
- 52:44Speaker 8: I hang on to that though, because that was actually
- 52:46Speaker 8: a cool movie in that fact that it kind of
- 52:50Speaker 8: pulls the curtain back.
- 52:51Speaker 25: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:54Speaker 25: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 8: It was Metachie that came through for us, and there
- 52:59Speaker 8: was there's no hassles, there was no problem.
- 53:02Speaker 25: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
