- 0:40Speaker 7: together on Memorial Day. Now, this isn't the best of
- 0:43Speaker 7: all there are, it's always best of I always railed
- 0:46Speaker 7: at that, even back when I used to do shock jock.
- 0:49Speaker 7: You top forty radio is there's a now factor you're
- 0:55Speaker 7: tuning in because radio is now not recorded and just distributed.
- 1:00Speaker 7: You know, when seen fits be live. That's why we
- 1:04Speaker 7: love our friends at Lightner in State College and Altoona,
- 1:09Speaker 7: and we'd love to spend more time with you, but
- 1:12Speaker 7: they get it. We're here live telling you what went
- 1:14Speaker 7: on last night. Is there a deal between Iran and
- 1:19Speaker 7: the United States to get the straight of horror moves open?
- 1:22Speaker 7: Oil prices sure acted like it yesterday. President has got
- 1:28Speaker 7: time set aside for a nationwide address tonight at nine
- 1:32Speaker 7: question mark and a lot of places, And I get it.
- 1:38Speaker 7: You want the time off up late after a barbecue
- 1:43Speaker 7: with friends. I was raised in a world where a
- 1:46Speaker 7: hangover was no reason to miss work. And my service
- 1:51Speaker 7: to you is not to sound bad about this. It's
- 1:56Speaker 7: the second most important thing in my life. Taking care
- 1:59Speaker 7: of my family is first, but they're sort of intertwined.
- 2:05Speaker 7: So I appreciate you being there because I know you're
- 2:07Speaker 7: up trying to get it together, whether you're helping put
- 2:10Speaker 7: together one of the myriad of celebrations for our fallen
- 2:16Speaker 7: veterans and their families, mainly to show support that we're
- 2:21Speaker 7: there for them, even in left wing places where they're
- 2:27Speaker 7: going to hand ring and obfuscate and try to guise
- 2:31Speaker 7: and cover. You get it, if you know, you know?
- 2:38Speaker 7: And why are we having a three day weekend. There's
- 2:40Speaker 7: a picture of AI generated piece of art that a
- 2:44Speaker 7: friend of mine's circulated. It's a very dark picture of
- 2:48Speaker 7: the soldiers holding up a piece of grass and beach
- 2:52Speaker 7: where we're all sitting there sunbathing, And I thought it
- 2:55Speaker 7: was a little Marxist in its imagery. I thought it
- 2:58Speaker 7: was a little much, because I think most of us,
- 3:01Speaker 7: even if we're headed to a beach somewhere or a
- 3:03Speaker 7: barbecue somewhere, we get it. Meanwhile, our first thing's deal deal.
- 3:10Speaker 7: Who's got the deal? President Trump tweeting that they're very
- 3:14Speaker 7: close to a deal in between the United States and
- 3:18Speaker 7: Iran to end hostilities. The Secretary of State was asked.
- 3:24Speaker 8: We're still work in progress. As I said, you know,
- 3:28Speaker 8: we thought we might have some news last night, maybe today.
- 3:30Speaker 7: I wouldn't read too much into it.
- 3:31Speaker 1: It takes a little while.
- 3:32Speaker 9: To hear back.
- 3:33Speaker 7: And on that subject of taking a little while to
- 3:36Speaker 7: hear back, we're getting a report from CBS News, no
- 3:39Speaker 7: radio division anymore, so now they have more time, I guess,
- 3:43Speaker 7: to focus on leaking information from inside Iran. But they're
- 3:47Speaker 7: saying that the Ayatola Junior Mojatpa Commany is hiding in
- 3:52Speaker 7: a secret location and can only be reached through a
- 3:55Speaker 7: network of couriers designed to conceal whether he's alive or not,
- 4:00Speaker 7: his whereabouts and keep his whereabouts secret from the Americans.
- 4:05Speaker 7: The RFA Line Bay is a British mind sweeping ship
- 4:10Speaker 7: and it's ready to go to start clearing the mines
- 4:12Speaker 7: that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has laid out in
- 4:17Speaker 7: the Strait of Hormuz to stop anyone from sailing through
- 4:22Speaker 7: the strait. For those who think that there's some line
- 4:26Speaker 7: of ships standing there, no, if you sail in there,
- 4:28Speaker 7: you just go boom. Bystander was struck by gunfire as
- 4:34Speaker 7: a terrorist tried to run up to the White House

- 4:48Speaker 7: damaged last week in southern California cracked over the weekend.
- 4:52Speaker 7: Authorities and have now sent in a team to determine
- 4:55Speaker 7: if the pressure has been relieved. As they're working on
- 4:59Speaker 7: trying to keep the chemical factory from exploding. In Garden Grove,
- 5:05Speaker 7: about forty miles south of Los Angeles, fifty thousand residents
- 5:10Speaker 7: have been evacuated. That's about one third of the population.

- 5:19Speaker 7: markets closed for Memorial Day. Oil prices sank as well.

- 5:30Speaker 7: two of the late Kyle Busch's former Joe Gibbs racing teammates,

- 5:39Speaker 7: in the car that Bush had been driving for Richard

- 10:08Speaker 16: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 16: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 16: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.

- 10:27Speaker 16: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is

- 13:13Speaker 8: Very this is why it's insane, but also kind of
- 13:15Speaker 8: funny in a weird way.
- 13:16Speaker 18: Whenever people are like, oh, I bet you're getting paid
- 13:18Speaker 18: by the Cuban government.
- 13:19Speaker 1: First thing Today by Joe Thomas on the talk media
- 13:23Speaker 1: network Bro.
- 13:24Speaker 7: They don't have money, Like, what money do they have?
- 13:27Speaker 7: They give me money, you know what I mean, I
- 13:31Speaker 7: don't know. They're sending you you on Maybe that should
- 13:34Speaker 7: be a dead giveaway. Hassan, who is behind the door.
- 13:48Speaker 7: Oh yeah, Cuba has no money, but they have Chinese money.
- 13:54Speaker 7: Who was in Cuba this past weekend? The leaders of
- 13:58Speaker 7: China and Ussia and Iran. Funny that, yeah, they were
- 14:06Speaker 7: all they all went to Havana for a beach weekend
- 14:12Speaker 7: to let some of the liberated proletariats serve them drinks.
- 14:22Speaker 7: And so that was Hassan Piker. You know me thinks
- 14:27Speaker 7: he doth proclaim too much or complain too much in
- 14:32Speaker 7: both cases true complaining that people are saying he's being
- 14:37Speaker 7: paid by Cuba. Obviously he's not Cuba. He's right, he
- 14:40Speaker 7: has no money. They have no money. That's why they're
- 14:42Speaker 7: sending him you won or bitcoin more likely laundered through
- 14:48Speaker 7: some Saint Petersburg bank. And it's it's all this narrative.
- 14:55Speaker 7: So we're talking here on Memorial Day. Think about for
- 15:01Speaker 7: a minute, and many people are picking up from the
- 15:04Speaker 7: anti war movement of the sixties, and I really think
- 15:08Speaker 7: that it has to be pointed out again that after
- 15:11Speaker 7: the collapse of the Soviet Union, but before the rise
- 15:14Speaker 7: of Vlad the Invader, we were able to see what
- 15:20Speaker 7: was going on at the intelligence headquarters and the KGB
- 15:28Speaker 7: operations that were paying for the American anti war movement. Now,
- 15:35Speaker 7: do I believe you can beat communism militarily.
- 15:38Speaker 22: No.
- 15:39Speaker 7: I don't believe you can beat communism militarily anymore than
- 15:42Speaker 7: I can believe you can beat communism by arresting anyone
- 15:46Speaker 7: who thinks communist policies are good. I don't think either
- 15:52Speaker 7: one of those things would actually be successful. But let's
- 15:56Speaker 7: not forget that the American anti war movement of the
- 15:59Speaker 7: nineteen sixties was paid for by the Soviet Union. Soviet
- 16:04Speaker 7: Union sent more money American dollars, by the way, to
- 16:09Speaker 7: the hippies in the Volkswagen micro buses, or more importantly,
- 16:13Speaker 7: the people who were setting up the events the hippies
- 16:16Speaker 7: and the micro buses were going to. Then they sent
- 16:23Speaker 7: to the North Vietnamese. Why because they knew that America's
- 16:29Speaker 7: support of Vietnam would be easily challenged, Partially because the
- 16:36Speaker 7: South Vietnamese weren't all that interested in fighting the North Vietnamese.
- 16:44Speaker 7: We had an enthusiasm gap in between those who were
- 16:48Speaker 7: fighting on behalf of the independence of the Free people
- 16:52Speaker 7: of Vietnam and the free people of Vietnam, mostly because
- 16:58Speaker 7: it was a civil war. Imagine for a second if
- 17:00Speaker 7: Britain and France had picked sides in the American Civil
- 17:04Speaker 7: War and the North the industrialized United States started running
- 17:14Speaker 7: campaigns in Britain. Let's say Britain was fighting on the
- 17:17Speaker 7: side of the Confederacy, which was likely because they were
- 17:21Speaker 7: giving the Confederacy bags and bags of money to fight
- 17:24Speaker 7: the American Constitution. Because all they cared about was the
- 17:28Speaker 7: tobacco and the cotton. They didn't care about Baltimore or
- 17:32Speaker 7: New York or Boston. They couldn't care less about any
- 17:35Speaker 7: of those places. They wanted the cotton fields and the
- 17:39Speaker 7: tobacco fields. So they were suborning, for the third time,
- 17:45Speaker 7: an attempt to break up the American government from the inside,
- 17:52Speaker 7: this time inventing sort of the paradigm that the Chicoms
- 17:55Speaker 7: and the Russians are using. Now. Pick on something and
- 18:01Speaker 7: polarize it and marginalize it. This isn't new. This is
- 18:05Speaker 7: the amazing thing to me is we're all sitting here saying, gee,
- 18:08Speaker 7: I don't know why it's the same thing over and
- 18:10Speaker 7: over again. People want to destroy the United States because
- 18:15Speaker 7: they can't have what the United States has, because they
- 18:18Speaker 7: don't have the intestical fortitude to allow people to actually
- 18:22Speaker 7: be free and self actualizing. Well crap, three quarters of
- 18:30Speaker 7: the American governing class can't do that, So why would
- 18:34Speaker 7: we expect any other country on the planet to think
- 18:37Speaker 7: that way? You and me, we get it, and we
- 18:43Speaker 7: call them out for it. And we're successful enough in
- 18:46Speaker 7: simply our distributing our electronic pamphlets. Yes, that's what this is.
- 18:52Speaker 7: I am no different than the pamphleteers of two hundred
- 18:55Speaker 7: and fifty years ago. It's just done electronically, and you
- 19:00Speaker 7: know with MP three's on the podcast channels. Look for
- 19:05Speaker 7: a First Thing Today on Apple Podcasts or Spotify or
- 19:09Speaker 7: iHeart iHeart and Odyssey both distribute my podcast. They fired
- 19:14Speaker 7: me at some point in my life, but I guess
- 19:16Speaker 7: they don't have to pay me for it, so you know,
- 19:20Speaker 7: get on with your getting on. But it's always about
- 19:26Speaker 7: convincing you that there's something wrong with you for wanting
- 19:30Speaker 7: to be free, for wanting to be prosperous, for wanting
- 19:33Speaker 7: to be self actualizing. And they will take as Bernie
- 19:40Speaker 7: Sanders does, the situations where somebody might have less than you,
- 19:44Speaker 7: and rather than you speaking about it philosophically or theologically,
- 19:48Speaker 7: don't you want to help your brother out. It's like
- 19:50Speaker 7: we need to create a government program to force you to.
- 19:56Speaker 7: And you know what's sad for me is we're here
- 20:01Speaker 7: in the midst of all this massive corruption. The woman
- 20:07Speaker 7: bach in Minneapolis last week forty two years in prison
- 20:12Speaker 7: for being the fall guy for Tim Waltz and the
- 20:15Speaker 7: rest of the Somali corruption machine. Here in our flagship
- 20:21Speaker 7: state Louise Lucas, hundreds of thousands of dollars in COVID
- 20:26Speaker 7: money went poof. They shouldn't have gotten McCormick down in
- 20:34Speaker 7: Florida FEMA money. We could keep collecting people's taxes and
- 20:42Speaker 7: or printing money based on I don't know tomorrow Lands taxes,
- 20:48Speaker 7: and then we get surprised when people steal it or
- 20:52Speaker 7: fraudulently gain access to I guess steal is such a
- 20:56Speaker 7: harsh word, Joe. But on Memorial Day, you know, we're
- 21:02Speaker 7: listening to people say that we're bad for trying to
- 21:06Speaker 7: end a war that started two hundred and forty years ago.
- 21:10Speaker 7: I know we're getting ready to celebrate the two hundred
- 21:12Speaker 7: and fiftieth year of our country. But two hundred and
- 21:15Speaker 7: forty years ago, the first president of the United States
- 21:18Speaker 7: sent his Secretary of State to meet with the head
- 21:21Speaker 7: of the Barbary Pirate, Islamist and the most pacifist president
- 21:32Speaker 7: in American history came back and said, mister President, I
- 21:36Speaker 7: think we're going to need to end this with a war.
- 21:39Speaker 7: When Thomas Jefferson says, I think we may need to
- 21:44Speaker 7: end this one with a war, meaning the Barbary Pirates
- 21:48Speaker 7: terrorist behavior towards our shipping simply because we were the Infidel,
- 21:55Speaker 7: and it took us what two hundred and forty years
- 21:58Speaker 7: to finally say, hey, he might have been right.

- 24:08Speaker 2: Yes?
- 24:09Speaker 21: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 24:14Speaker 21: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long

- 27:56Speaker 2: It's on.
- 28:08Speaker 9: With the.
- 28:11Speaker 1: One hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
- 28:14Speaker 1: the first thing today.
- 28:16Speaker 7: It is time for our sports director Mac McDonald. Don't
- 28:20Speaker 7: poke your radio. We are here live for you. And
- 28:23Speaker 7: mostly because Mac doesn't want to try to chronicle four
- 28:27Speaker 7: days worth of intense sporting events over the weekend into
- 28:31Speaker 7: a one one program sports report. Mac, how you doing
- 28:34Speaker 7: the middle of this quite the weekend so far?
- 28:37Speaker 23: Everything's going on, all that, you know, with the Cowboys
- 28:41Speaker 23: tributes and everything going on with that, and try to
- 28:44Speaker 23: you know, I was trying to stay on top of
- 28:45Speaker 23: that a little bit. And then, of course the Indy
- 28:47Speaker 23: five hundred was always special to me because I went
- 28:50Speaker 23: with my dad in nineteen sixty nine. I saw three
- 28:52Speaker 23: Indy five hundreds, but the nineteen sixty nine was special
- 28:56Speaker 23: because it was my dad's first I was sixteen, are
- 29:01Speaker 23: approaching my sixteenth birthday actually, and he got very sick,
- 29:07Speaker 23: found out he had a heart thing and he had
- 29:09Speaker 23: surgery that summer, and I mean it was just but
- 29:12Speaker 23: it was a very very special time. And Mario and
- 29:15Speaker 23: Dretti won. They showed a you know, picture of him.
- 29:17Speaker 23: So anyway, you can't at least I can't not being there.
- 29:21Speaker 23: But I can't stay with it on TV for you know,
- 29:23Speaker 23: for three and a half four hours.
- 29:24Speaker 8: Just can't. Okay, So I'm in and out. I'm in
- 29:27Speaker 8: and out. I'm doing some schoolwork, back and forth, back
- 29:29Speaker 8: and forth.
- 29:30Speaker 23: Anyway, So as it gets to the finish with about
- 29:32Speaker 23: twenty laps to go, okay, I'm locked in. You know,
- 29:35Speaker 23: it got to be pretty close. And then they you know,
- 29:37Speaker 23: they had the the the red light, you know, the
- 29:40Speaker 23: red flag and then the yellow flag again, and it
- 29:42Speaker 23: set up this phiniash that was just Al Rosenquist in
- 29:46Speaker 23: this slingshot move that he makes to beat this David
- 29:49Speaker 23: Malucas and Melucas is this young guy who was in
- 29:52Speaker 23: tears now the Janet. But with all that being said,
- 29:54Speaker 23: you know, I love play by play calls Will Buston
- 30:00Speaker 23: and has been around for quite some time. He was
- 30:02Speaker 23: a commentator for Fox Sports indiecar series coverage.
- 30:05Speaker 8: Uh, he's been with Formula one.
- 30:09Speaker 23: He uh you know, is a writer, broadcaster or whatever.
- 30:13Speaker 23: His call of this slingshot was about as good as
- 30:16Speaker 23: it gets.
- 30:17Speaker 8: Think, so I'm bringing part.
- 30:18Speaker 23: Of it I'm bringing twenty of the final twenty seven
- 30:20Speaker 23: seconds or whatever of his.
- 30:22Speaker 8: Call when Melucas has got this thing one. I mean,
- 30:25Speaker 8: you know, anyway, here's the here's the finish.
- 30:27Speaker 20: David Milucas goes to defend the MSL driver stale side
- 30:31Speaker 20: by side into Melucas's hands. Melucas is out in front,
- 30:36Speaker 20: by behind. It's not over yet. It's not over yet.
- 30:40Speaker 20: Melucas have to defend from Rosa Christ. Great run off
- 30:43Speaker 20: the final coda. It comes Rosa Christ from me Lucas
- 30:46Speaker 20: who has it over the line.
- 30:48Speaker 8: He's gonna bay.
- 30:51Speaker 20: Edged Rosa Quist.
- 30:53Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness, man, I think we're
- 30:58Speaker 7: just gonna name him. Oh my goodness man.
- 31:00Speaker 23: Right the the edit, the audio of where he pauses
- 31:04Speaker 23: in the audio, guy, I want to play just go,
- 31:07Speaker 23: you know, gets the car radio go.
- 31:09Speaker 8: That's why we love racing. Somebody listen to this edit
- 31:12Speaker 8: in this right here.
- 31:12Speaker 20: Answer me Lucas his hands. Me Lucas is out in
- 31:15Speaker 20: front behind.
- 31:17Speaker 7: It's not and he knew, he knew.
- 31:19Speaker 8: Okay, I gotta I gotta lay out.
- 31:22Speaker 22: You know.
- 31:22Speaker 7: Well, it's an interesting thing because a lot of people
- 31:25Speaker 7: would say, don't put the car radio on unless you
- 31:27Speaker 7: have a you know, and then the anchor would say,
- 31:29Speaker 7: let's get the car radio in here. But you know,
- 31:31Speaker 7: when when you can mix it and you've got a
- 31:34Speaker 7: guy who and somebody on the control board that can
- 31:37Speaker 7: lower it so it's not fighting with the with the
- 31:40Speaker 7: voice on the air, I think it adds to it
- 31:42Speaker 7: because it's almost like nar rating a play.
- 31:46Speaker 8: Oh yeah, exactly.
- 31:48Speaker 23: And so then but then they just kept going and
- 31:51Speaker 23: going and going when you had a chance to have
- 31:54Speaker 23: the emotion of the car they talked over after the finish,
- 31:58Speaker 23: the three of them that were in the booth, they
- 32:00Speaker 23: just kept going on.
- 32:01Speaker 8: And on and on on and was a time for
- 32:03Speaker 8: them to shut up.
- 32:03Speaker 23: They need to shut up because now you had this
- 32:06Speaker 23: emotionally exchange, you know, Rose and Quist it was you know,
- 32:09Speaker 23: he just had a baby in May and h and
- 32:12Speaker 23: everything going on.
- 32:13Speaker 8: Anyway, it was, uh, you know, it was a terrific finish. Okay.
- 32:17Speaker 23: So the talking of course Suarez is when where there
- 32:21Speaker 23: were so many drivers and people who had associations with
- 32:26Speaker 23: Kyle Busch who you know, got to speak out. The
- 32:29Speaker 23: Bubba Wallace story was very very good about a conversation
- 32:32Speaker 23: they had Dale Junior was going to go to work
- 32:36Speaker 23: with it about twenty years ago.
- 32:37Speaker 8: They used to battle and fight and talk about the move.
- 32:40Speaker 23: But one of the and then of course the pregame thing,
- 32:44Speaker 23: the way the family held up and the kid, the
- 32:47Speaker 23: eleven year old who stood by his mom, you know,
- 32:51Speaker 23: had the hat, had the T shirt on, and you know,
- 32:54Speaker 23: the hardest thing in the world would be for his
- 32:57Speaker 23: mom to sit there, you know, to stand with you.
- 33:01Speaker 8: Know, had flowers in her hand or whatever.
- 33:03Speaker 23: But Samantha Bush had talked a long time ago, because
- 33:08Speaker 23: the two had shared a conversation long, long, long before
- 33:13Speaker 23: May twenty first, in fact, last November, and they were
- 33:16Speaker 23: talking about she said, what if you passed, and said,
- 33:21Speaker 23: I would love to have another kid connected and name
- 33:24Speaker 23: the kid after you. And Kyle's surprised and said, wait
- 33:29Speaker 23: a minute. They were on a podcast, and he says,
- 33:31Speaker 23: what are you talking about.
- 33:33Speaker 8: Well, anyway, she had.
- 33:34Speaker 23: Battled in infertility for years and so through multiple cycles
- 33:40Speaker 23: and miscarriages and all of that stuff. Of course, they
- 33:43Speaker 23: had Braxton in twenty fifteen through the procedure. They had
- 33:46Speaker 23: a daughter then who's four, Alexi. A lot of people,
- 33:50Speaker 23: but she had her embryos frozen and she said, I
- 33:53Speaker 23: just can't. I just can't part with them. And so
- 33:56Speaker 23: this story, you know, comes out after of course everything
- 33:59Speaker 23: that has happened, because naturally it's not gonna be a
- 34:02Speaker 23: big story until you know, you wake up on the
- 34:04Speaker 23: floor in your confident of blood. And then of course
- 34:06Speaker 23: they released you know, TMZ of course has to release
- 34:09Speaker 23: the Nune one one call and uh and go through
- 34:12Speaker 23: all that all right, So if that, if that wasn't enough,
- 34:14Speaker 23: then the weekend, so the Charlotte, the Charlotte race gets
- 34:17Speaker 23: called twenty seven laps to go, gets called the rain
- 34:21Speaker 23: and who should win?
- 34:22Speaker 8: But uh Suarez who used to race for Kyle Busch.
- 34:26Speaker 23: I mean the stars aligned right and of course his
- 34:28Speaker 23: he was getting hugged by driver after dry I had
- 34:31Speaker 23: to edit this. It took him two minutes to get
- 34:33Speaker 23: through thirty seconds of comment.
- 34:35Speaker 8: This literally means I love Mark.
- 34:37Speaker 1: This one really means a lot. It's been a very
- 34:40Speaker 1: tough week.
- 34:41Speaker 8: He was a special man.
- 34:42Speaker 23: But definitely these one has a special flavor because of Kyle.
- 34:46Speaker 1: This the one is for him.
- 34:47Speaker 22: If it wasn't for.
- 34:48Speaker 12: Kyle, I wasn't gonna be an Exfinity champion, you I
- 34:51Speaker 12: wasn't gonna have my shot in the Cup Series and
- 34:53Speaker 12: uh and.
- 34:54Speaker 7: To be able to win this race for game is unbelievable.
- 34:58Speaker 7: He used to race for Kyle Busch, and I think
- 35:00Speaker 7: that's an under reported thing. You are only the second
- 35:03Speaker 7: person I've heard bring up the fact that Kyle Busch Motorsports,
- 35:07Speaker 7: the truck team that he started, became this incubator, if
- 35:12Speaker 7: you will. He would just throw people in that car.
- 35:16Speaker 7: He won seven Listen to the I mean, I was
- 35:19Speaker 7: just shocked by so won seven owners championships with his car.
- 35:23Speaker 7: Never had a driver champion because he had three, four
- 35:25Speaker 7: or five six different drivers in that truck at various times,
- 35:29Speaker 7: including himself. But but he he helped guys get into
- 35:35Speaker 7: the sport, run in the truck series and then move,
- 35:39Speaker 7: you know, up from there. I think that that is
- 35:43Speaker 7: an important thing because there were people at the Cup
- 35:46Speaker 7: level who thought he was, you know, he was a
- 35:48Speaker 7: hot dog or whatever, you know, tried too hard. I
- 35:52Speaker 7: love the people who say somebody was trying too hard,
- 35:55Speaker 7: you know that That always struck me as as kind
- 35:58Speaker 7: of disingenuous and the all American sport. But yeah, he
- 36:03Speaker 7: did a lot for a lot of drivers like Suarez,
- 36:05Speaker 7: and I know a lot of people were saying, oh,
- 36:07Speaker 7: well he beat two Joe Gibbs guys who had run
- 36:10Speaker 7: with Kyle Busch. But I mean this, you thank you
- 36:13Speaker 7: for bringing that, h well, the story.
- 36:15Speaker 23: See Bubba Wallace one champion, you know, one title for
- 36:18Speaker 23: him in twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen with the truck,
- 36:20Speaker 23: so that you know, and then Kyle of course still
- 36:23Speaker 23: loved it.
- 36:23Speaker 8: He raced, you know, he raised. His last win was
- 36:26Speaker 8: the truck, right and uh and didn't you know, didn't
- 36:29Speaker 8: feel all that good?
- 36:30Speaker 23: And uh, I had a long talk since my wife's
- 36:32Speaker 23: nurse had a long talk about sepsis and infections and.
- 36:34Speaker 7: Pneumonia for three weeks because.
- 36:37Speaker 23: Yeah, because my good friend, uh you we talked about
- 36:41Speaker 23: Jimmy a lot. Jimmy was my spotter and he was
- 36:43Speaker 23: Ellie's godfather. Well, Jimmy had back surgery and then ended
- 36:48Speaker 23: up getting infection from the back surgery.
- 36:50Speaker 8: And he almost passed, you know, he almost died a
- 36:53Speaker 8: month ago.
- 36:54Speaker 7: So that's what did Dick Shaft think. Dick Chaff went
- 36:57Speaker 7: in for a simple surgery. I think it was it
- 36:59Speaker 7: was I think it was a neme replacement, and Dick
- 37:01Speaker 7: shapp was gone, you know, two days later.
- 37:04Speaker 23: So I'm starting to after, you know, after nine years
- 37:07Speaker 23: of marriage with my nurse wife, who's like one of
- 37:11Speaker 23: the greatest, I'm starting to finally listener when she says
- 37:14Speaker 23: wash your hands, she tells me ten times. She tells
- 37:17Speaker 23: me ten times a day, wash your hands, Wash your hands.
- 37:19Speaker 1: You know.
- 37:20Speaker 23: So uh But anyway, with all that, Johnny Manziel wins UFC,
- 37:24Speaker 23: we'll talk more about this.
- 37:26Speaker 8: You had dominated some guy thirty eight years.
- 37:29Speaker 23: Old, Bob Henry, a first round stoppage in the UFC
- 37:32Speaker 23: Apex Center in Vegas.
- 37:34Speaker 8: Johnny Manziel now fighting for you.
- 37:37Speaker 7: Oh you know, you know, we were going so good there.
- 37:40Speaker 8: I I just had to bring up that.
- 37:43Speaker 7: I feel like the guy who finished second at the
- 37:45Speaker 7: Indy five hundred. Now, I just yeah, you had to.
- 37:48Speaker 7: You had to lap me with Johnny Manziel there at
- 37:50Speaker 7: the end. Oh my gosh, where's my red flag?
- 37:54Speaker 8: Hey, hey, have a good one today. Remember why the
- 37:57Speaker 8: day is here?
- 37:58Speaker 7: Amen to that? Mac, Thank you sir? All right.
- 38:01Speaker 12: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
- 38:05Speaker 12: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
- 38:08Speaker 12: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
- 38:11Speaker 12: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
- 38:15Speaker 12: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
- 38:19Speaker 12: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
- 38:22Speaker 12: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
- 38:26Speaker 12: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
- 38:29Speaker 12: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
- 38:33Speaker 12: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
- 38:37Speaker 12: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
- 38:41Speaker 12: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
- 38:45Speaker 12: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
- 38:49Speaker 12: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
- 38:52Speaker 12: yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves
- 38:55Speaker 12: to complete tasks. Visit Discovery education dot com to learn

- 39:04Speaker 21: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 39:08Speaker 2: Yes?
- 39:09Speaker 21: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 39:14Speaker 21: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long

- 40:33Speaker 26: Every year more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
- 40:37Speaker 26: than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
- 40:42Speaker 26: the one for new macccle disease can protect adults from
- 40:44Speaker 26: illnesses that can cause misdays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
- 40:49Speaker 26: New macaccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
- 40:53Speaker 26: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
- 40:57Speaker 26: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
- 41:00Speaker 26: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

- 42:17Speaker 2: help feed his little sisters.
- 42:19Speaker 22: Or a mother who's in between jobs and sometimes goes

- 43:56Speaker 2: It's on.
- 44:08Speaker 20: Christmas Town.
- 44:09Speaker 19: The powers as quickly for you.
- 44:13Speaker 1: From Joe Thomas. It's first thing today.
- 44:17Speaker 4: Ten years ago at Crack commando unit was sent to
- 44:19Speaker 4: prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.
- 44:22Speaker 4: These men promptly escaped from maximum security stockade to the
- 44:25Speaker 4: Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they
- 44:29Speaker 4: survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem,
- 44:32Speaker 4: if no one else can help, and if you can
- 44:34Speaker 4: find them, maybe you can hire.
- 44:36Speaker 26: The A Team.
- 44:39Speaker 7: Of course, there's no Los Angeles underground anymore. It's all
- 44:42Speaker 7: above ground, living intense on the side of the highway
- 44:46Speaker 7: four three four eight A two four to two one
- 44:50Speaker 7: seven this morning. And they're all the A Team are
- 44:53Speaker 7: former men and women who serve UH and those who
- 44:56Speaker 7: didn't come home. Let's reach out to the families and
- 44:59Speaker 7: as a I said earlier, and I don't think I
- 45:01Speaker 7: can say it enough. And it's not just to blow
- 45:04Speaker 7: smoke up the skirt of the Trump administration. VA reports
- 45:09Speaker 7: record number of former active duty servicemen and women seeking
- 45:15Speaker 7: counseling for when they just can't compartmentalize the re entry,
- 45:21Speaker 7: all the different things that cause twenty two veterans to
- 45:24Speaker 7: take their lives each and every day. And that number
- 45:27Speaker 7: is going to drop. I have a feeling if these
- 45:29Speaker 7: numbers from the VA are accurate. There, doctor Clark, hanging
- 45:34Speaker 7: on the line, semper fi, sir, and thank you. He
- 45:38Speaker 7: sent me a picture of the fellow who replaced him
- 45:41Speaker 7: in active duty and then wind up was getting killed
- 45:45Speaker 7: in combat. That was a great self portrait you sent
- 45:48Speaker 7: me there, doctor Clark, and disappoigned that you hang it
- 45:52Speaker 7: at your home in your office there, sir, How are
- 45:54Speaker 7: you doing this Memorial Day?
- 45:57Speaker 1: I'm all good.
- 45:58Speaker 27: It's a reflective memorial day. Yeah, so many, you know,
- 46:04Speaker 27: twenty two a day. Do you know why, Joe, they
- 46:10Speaker 27: keep having conversations with the people that didn't come home.
- 46:14Speaker 7: That's a great way of saying it. I mean, you know,
- 46:16Speaker 7: there is a there is a survivor's guilt, you know,
- 46:20Speaker 7: and it's sad. We talk about this for the obvious
- 46:24Speaker 7: reasons when there's some sort of uh event at a school,
- 46:28Speaker 7: uh or or a workplace. But I mean, you want
- 46:31Speaker 7: to talk about the capital city of survivors guilt, it's
- 46:35Speaker 7: the men and women who served in combat. That's so
- 46:39Speaker 7: well said.
- 46:41Speaker 27: Well, there's nothing rational about it.
- 46:45Speaker 28: Wasn't my fault.
- 46:46Speaker 27: I couldn't have done anything about it. I came home
- 46:49Speaker 27: and he didn't.
- 46:53Speaker 7: I hear you, man.
- 46:55Speaker 8: So there's that.
- 46:59Speaker 28: So a lot of if I gone today, as I
- 47:02Speaker 28: was having my arteries make healthy gases with plate loaded fitness.
- 47:08Speaker 28: Somewhere between chin ups and shoulder presses, you had a
- 47:13Speaker 28: clip of a filthy little communist talking about we're in
- 47:18Speaker 28: a worse situation in Iran than we were to start
- 47:21Speaker 28: with because they didn't have enrich geranium, but now they
- 47:24Speaker 28: do because of Trump.
- 47:25Speaker 8: YadA, YadA.
- 47:26Speaker 27: All right, Look, you and I had a conversation.
- 47:31Speaker 28: Several months ago about what were the biggest existential threats
- 47:37Speaker 28: to Western culture, the American way of life, and I
- 47:42Speaker 28: said it was China, the Left, and fundamental Islam. Now,
- 47:48Speaker 28: if you look at T two, everything so far, the
- 47:56Speaker 28: Gulf of America, Panama, Canal, Venezuela, US Canal, Bab Al Mandam,
- 48:01Speaker 28: Iran straight to Malacca, Cuba.
- 48:05Speaker 22: All this.
- 48:07Speaker 27: Has been about diminishing Shina's ability.
- 48:11Speaker 28: With the Belton Road, we have largely stopped their attempt
- 48:16Speaker 28: at converting the world from petro dollars to petro wand
- 48:20Speaker 28: and if that happens, we.
- 48:21Speaker 8: Are so screwed.
- 48:24Speaker 7: True.
- 48:25Speaker 27: And I thought about it yesterday.
- 48:29Speaker 28: I thought about those three existential threats, and I thought,
- 48:33Speaker 28: did Trump just prioritize China as the greatest one of those?
- 48:37Speaker 28: And he's gone after that? And I thought about it
- 48:40Speaker 28: for a few more minutes. Joe, I'm not sure he's
- 48:43Speaker 28: not doing all three at once, because to a large
- 48:48Speaker 28: degree they are hand in glove tied together.
- 48:53Speaker 7: This is true. I think you know the dumbest thing
- 48:57Speaker 7: an American politician does is tell you what they're going
- 48:59Speaker 7: to to do, because you need to have, you know,
- 49:04Speaker 7: especially militarily, you need to have I don't know. A
- 49:07Speaker 7: surprise seems to be one of those things that has
- 49:10Speaker 7: always been at the core of a lot of our
- 49:13Speaker 7: American military successes. So if he came out and said,
- 49:18Speaker 7: I'm declaring China the greatest enemy of the United States,
- 49:22Speaker 7: I don't think we get anywhere, because then there's no
- 49:26Speaker 7: ability for him to fly to Beijing and talk to
- 49:30Speaker 7: Chairman she that kind of thing. But there's a subtext
- 49:34Speaker 7: to us, and I think the American left and I
- 49:37Speaker 7: couldn't figure it out, and I apologized for it earlier
- 49:39Speaker 7: in the show. I didn't realize. Certainly, we chronicled the
- 49:45Speaker 7: fact that they had rebranded Hamas and Hezbollah as marginalized communities,
- 49:50Speaker 7: much like the Indians and black population of American United
- 49:55Speaker 7: States in history. Therefore, Democrats must support and Republicans who
- 50:00Speaker 7: want to be evolved must support the marginalized community over
- 50:06Speaker 7: the Jews that run Israel. And I certainly chronicled that.
- 50:12Speaker 7: I didn't realize there's a subtext to it that's darker.
- 50:15Speaker 7: Clark is they tried about twenty years ago, ten years
- 50:18Speaker 7: ago in that arc to try to separate Americans from America,
- 50:23Speaker 7: and the Make America Great Again movement proved to them
- 50:27Speaker 7: that there was a majority of Americans who didn't buy it.
- 50:31Speaker 7: So what did they have to do. It wasn't about
- 50:33Speaker 7: rebranding Hamas. It was going after America through our support
- 50:38Speaker 7: of Israel. Because most of us aren't in Israel. Most
- 50:41Speaker 7: of us have never been to Israel. Most of us
- 50:44Speaker 7: only have one or two Jewish friends. And if we
- 50:46Speaker 7: have Jewish friends, most of them have been convinced that
- 50:50Speaker 7: all their problems are because of Israel. So if we
- 50:52Speaker 7: all just turn on Israel, things will be great. And
- 50:55Speaker 7: I didn't realize that at the time. That's their way
- 50:59Speaker 7: into destroying America. You know, by destroying americans belief in
- 51:04Speaker 7: America we support Israel, Israel is bad, therefore we're bad.
- 51:09Speaker 7: They stopped making it about our historical problems and started
- 51:13Speaker 7: making it about today by rebranding Israel as this great Satan.
- 51:20Speaker 28: You have to give them credit, Joe. It's largely like
- 51:24Speaker 28: Willy Cody. Every time one thing blows up in their face.
- 51:29Speaker 28: They placed an order with ACME.
- 51:31Speaker 27: And they have a news game.
- 51:34Speaker 7: This one, though, I think has traction. It's gotten in.
- 51:37Speaker 7: You know, when you listen to Tucker Carlson and Megan
- 51:39Speaker 7: Kelly and these folks who are all anti Israel, I'm like,
- 51:43Speaker 7: hold on, you realize Israel is our greatest ally, has
- 51:45Speaker 7: been our loyalist ally and is our only Western enclave
- 51:49Speaker 7: in a world that's getting more and more Western every day.
- 51:53Speaker 7: As it's darkly brilliant, it's the only credit I can
- 51:57Speaker 7: give them. It's like saying, yeah, Darth Vader is strong.
- 52:00Speaker 7: He's dark, but he's strong.
- 52:03Speaker 28: Well, what are we seven years from roughly when Jesus
- 52:08Speaker 28: said people will come and be very careful because they'll speak. Well,
- 52:15Speaker 28: what that'll lead you astray? So we should have learned
- 52:21Speaker 28: that from two thousand years ago, roughly, you'd think.
- 52:24Speaker 7: But you know, as they say, history doesn't repeat, but
- 52:26Speaker 7: at rhymes. Good stuff, Clark, God bless you, sir. What
- 52:31Speaker 7: absolutely and keep on remembering those who didn't come home
- 52:37Speaker 7: and just you know, put them in the place where
- 52:39Speaker 7: they belong in the world history as heroes and angels
- 52:44Speaker 7: who are looking over us as we head to the
- 52:46Speaker 7: news this Memorial Day morning, on first thing today.
