- 0:47Speaker 1: I'll tell you what went on last night. And then
- 0:51Speaker 1: I'll give you my analysis of it. But I want
- 0:53Speaker 1: to hear how it's impacting you where you are. You
- 0:57Speaker 1: being the most important part, local part of the radio station.
- 1:01Speaker 1: It's on you because, you know, it's the price of gas.
- 1:06Speaker 1: It's $ 4 plus in a lot of places. It's the
- 1:12Speaker 1: price of getting anything. 162,000 new jobs created. Text message
- 1:19Speaker 1: here from Danny listening to us on Long Island News Radio.
- 1:22Speaker 2: He said, great.
- 1:24Speaker 1: That's out of how many millions of people we had 162,000
- 1:26Speaker 1: new jobs created. And how many of them are being
- 1:31Speaker 1: taken by somebody who's already working another one? What do
- 1:36Speaker 1: you do for money, honey? How do you get your kicks?
- 1:39Speaker 1: It's the economy, stupid. While we debate the Lindsay Clancy
- 1:47Speaker 1: hung jury and whether that'd be a good idea or not,
- 1:55Speaker 1: we still have to get along with our get-alongs. we
- 1:59Speaker 1: still have our own things that we have to deal with.
- 2:03Speaker 1: We still have to get our own families put together
- 2:07Speaker 1: and taken care of. Because if not, we're as guilty
- 2:11Speaker 1: as anyone at falling prey to our self-indulgences. And perhaps
- 2:20Speaker 1: the only funny thing that Al Franken was ever involved in,
- 2:25Speaker 1: despite a decade of writing for Saturday Night Live, was
- 2:30Speaker 1: when he appeared on Weekend Update rebuking the me generation,
- 2:38Speaker 1: technically my generation. We were the me decade. I guess
- 2:44Speaker 1: it was the 70s was the me decade. I may
- 2:48Speaker 1: be misrememberifying. But he was there to declare the end
- 2:53Speaker 1: of the me decade and the beginning of the me
- 2:57Speaker 1: Al Franken decade. And I found humor in that. Maybe
- 3:02Speaker 1: it was funnier because it was from somebody who was
- 3:05Speaker 1: so profoundly unfunny as Al Franken. But that's where we
- 3:10Speaker 1: are right now. This is still the fruit of the
- 3:12Speaker 1: me generation. Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial in Lindsay
- 3:18Speaker 1: Clancy's murder trial after jurors said they were unable to

- 3:53Speaker 8: U.S.

- 4:04Speaker 1: report from the inspector general's office against former Labor Secretary
- 4:10Speaker 1: Lori Chavez de Riemer saying that she drank frequently during

- 4:34Speaker 1: Republican senators, and dozens of non-profit organizations and individuals have
- 4:39Speaker 1: filed Friends of the Court briefs with the Ninth U.S.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold a ruling blocking California's
- 4:47Speaker 1: school gender identity policies. The briefs were filed in conjunction
- 4:52Speaker 1: with the Mirabelli v. Bonta case. Supreme Court ruled that
- 4:57Speaker 1: political parties should be allowed the same reduced TV ad
- 5:02Speaker 1: rates as political candidates. President Trump called on the Federal
- 5:07Speaker 1: Reserve to sharply lower interest rates, saying the lowest rate
- 5:11Speaker 1: of any country in the world should be what the
- 5:13Speaker 1: United States has. This in the wake of the jobs

- 5:54Speaker 9: the American story. But not every site is telling that
- 5:58Speaker 9: story honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created
- 6:02Speaker 9: the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips
- 6:06Speaker 9: American citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the
- 6:10Speaker 9: sites that depict some of the greatest moments in our
- 6:12Speaker 9: nation's history, analyzing them for historical accuracy, and provides resources
- 6:18Speaker 9: for families or educators planning a visit. It currently covers
- 6:22Speaker 9: over 45 sites in the 13 original colonies, but sites
- 6:26Speaker 9: from all 50 states will be added in time for
- 6:29Speaker 9: citizens to celebrate America 250 this summer. From Mount Vernon
- 6:33Speaker 9: to Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more, Americans deserve transparency
- 6:38Speaker 9: and sites that steward our history faithfully deserve our gratitude.
- 6:43Speaker 9: The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites every American to
- 6:47Speaker 9: rediscover the places and stories that define our nation, whether

- 8:07Speaker 6: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 6: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 6: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 6: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 6: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 6: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 6: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer,
- 8:43Speaker 6: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 8:46Speaker 6: many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
- 8:51Speaker 6: cells even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to

- 9:05Speaker 13: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 13: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you

- 9:21Speaker 13: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:25Speaker 13: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:29Speaker 13: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 9:33Speaker 13: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 9:37Speaker 13: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 9:42Speaker 13: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 9:46Speaker 13: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General, at oig.ssa.gov.
- 9:53Speaker 13: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 14: Hi, everybody. I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy
- 10:01Speaker 14: growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 14: with animals. I'm not only in awe of their beauty
- 10:05Speaker 14: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 10:08Speaker 14: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests or
- 10:11Speaker 14: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young.
- 10:14Speaker 14: Or penguins, who travel up to 500 miles to secure
- 10:17Speaker 14: food for their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump
- 10:20Speaker 14: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
- 10:22Speaker 14: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
- 10:25Speaker 14: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
- 10:28Speaker 14: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 14: they also perform life-saving work every day. Dogs keep us
- 10:35Speaker 14: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
- 10:37Speaker 14: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 10:41Speaker 14: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 10:44Speaker 14: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
- 10:46Speaker 14: and help those in need. So please join me and
- 10:49Speaker 14: American Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all
- 10:52Speaker 14: the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go
- 10:55Speaker 14: to americanhumane.org to learn more.

- 11:04Speaker 15: And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 17: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 6: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 15: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
- 11:15Speaker 15: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
- 11:18Speaker 15: call me a ride. Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 18: Me too.
- 11:21Speaker 4: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when

- 11:31Speaker 10: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 10: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 10: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home

- 13:23Speaker 2: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:26Speaker 16: Turn the radio up.
- 13:29Speaker 19: Hold that sweet sound. Hold it close.
- 13:35Speaker 5: Never let.
- 13:38Speaker 19: Me go. Keep us feeling alive.
- 13:39Speaker 20: Make me lose control.
- 13:48Speaker 2: I don't want it to get creepy here.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Let's back off the looking in your eyes because that's
- 13:53Speaker 1: when people start putting pieces of paper over their radio
- 13:56Speaker 1: in their cars or they turn around the clock radio
- 14:00Speaker 1: on their nightstand and I just don't want it to
- 14:02Speaker 1: get weird. Or weirder, if you insist. Thank you for
- 14:08Speaker 1: letting me be of service. Just trying to make sense
- 14:10Speaker 1: of it all and I ran into a fella yesterday
- 14:13Speaker 1: and we were just in general talking about his mission work.
- 14:19Speaker 1: He runs an organization called Advancing Native Missions. And if
- 14:27Speaker 1: there was somebody who was genetic, and we talk about
- 14:31Speaker 1: this on Tedstee, there are people who are gifted to
- 14:34Speaker 1: do certain things. This guy's positivity is so overt that
- 14:39Speaker 1: if he was in any other profession other than going
- 14:44Speaker 1: into hostile countries to promote Christianity, he'd be annoying. But
- 14:50Speaker 1: the fact that he goes into, you're really into Satan's
- 14:58Speaker 1: den to fight the battle on the ground to win
- 15:02Speaker 1: back the people that have been corrupted. It's almost, he's
- 15:09Speaker 1: almost nuanced. He's almost subtle, but he's just such a
- 15:13Speaker 1: positive guy. His name is Oliver Asher and it's Advancing
- 15:17Speaker 1: Native Ministries. And I wanted to bring this up because
- 15:20Speaker 1: the news of the day includes, you know, the economic
- 15:24Speaker 1: impact of what's going on in Tehran or Iran in general,
- 15:29Speaker 1: the economic D-Day and that there are reports now. human
- 15:35Speaker 1: rights organizations, and you know what comes next. As soon
- 15:38Speaker 1: as there's a human rights organization reporting on something, it'll
- 15:41Speaker 1: be our fault. Sorry, this is the way it rolls.
- 15:47Speaker 1: But there are food rationing and energy rationings going on
- 15:52Speaker 1: in Iran, but there's more things afoot than that. And
- 15:56Speaker 1: after our show Friday morning out at Common Grounds and
- 15:59Speaker 1: our friends from City Elders, these are the kind of
- 16:01Speaker 1: folks who You meet, by the way, and if you
- 16:03Speaker 1: don't have a City Elders organization in your neighborhood, and
- 16:08Speaker 1: you can find out by going to cityelders.org. If you
- 16:12Speaker 1: don't have one, start one. And it's easy enough to do.
- 16:16Speaker 1: Kevin at cityeldersva.org has volunteered to give anyone, wherever they
- 16:22Speaker 1: may be in the country, a primer on how easy
- 16:25Speaker 1: it is to start up a City Elders organization in
- 16:28Speaker 1: your neck of the woods and start trying to get
- 16:30Speaker 1: ethical people involved In these halls of government, while we
- 16:35Speaker 1: work behind the scenes of trying to rest back the
- 16:44Speaker 1: constitutional authorities that we are supposed to have as citizens,
- 16:48Speaker 1: you know, until that end where it's not really going
- 16:50Speaker 1: to work all that well until we get ethical people
- 16:53Speaker 1: in these offices saying, hey, I'm not supposed to be
- 16:56Speaker 1: doing this. But Oliver told me an amazing story out
- 17:00Speaker 1: of Tehran that I thought was important to share with you.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 17:05Speaker 1: And so talk about the successes you've had. Talk about
- 17:08Speaker 1: the place you've gone because you were talking to me
- 17:10Speaker 1: the other week. You know, tens of thousands of Muslims
- 17:14Speaker 1: in Iran converting. I mean, they've got a bigger problem
- 17:18Speaker 1: than whether or not we're hitting their missile silos on
- 17:21Speaker 1: the Strait of Hormuz if everyone's leaving the church. I
- 17:25Speaker 1: don't know what this Ayatollah is hiding in the closet
- 17:28Speaker 1: trying to hold on to.
- 17:29Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 17:30Speaker 19: So, I mean, you just, you hit the nail on
- 17:32Speaker 19: the head. I mean, in Iran, there have been a
- 17:34Speaker 19: million conversions just, you know, maybe in the past couple
- 17:38Speaker 19: of years. And, you know, we serve a ministry there
- 17:42Speaker 19: and we've helped them to distribute, to print and distribute
- 17:45Speaker 19: probably at least two or three million New Testament, Farsi
- 17:48Speaker 19: New Testament copies. That's the language they speak.
- 17:50Speaker 1: And that's taking your life in your own hands into
- 17:53Speaker 1: a country like that.
- 17:55Speaker 19: Absolutely. The Christians are so brave and that's what people
- 17:57Speaker 19: don't realize.
- 17:58Speaker 8: Yes.
- 17:58Speaker 19: You know, the regime is horrible. They are, you know,
- 18:02Speaker 19: they are not peaceful. They, you know, they don't give
- 18:05Speaker 19: justice to their people, but the people themselves, you know,
- 18:07Speaker 19: so many of them are seeking answers or seeking for
- 18:10Speaker 19: the Lord and, And praise the Lord, they're finding them
- 18:12Speaker 19: when they, you know, meet a fellow believer. But that's
- 18:14Speaker 19: a problem. There aren't that many of them or haven't been.
- 18:17Speaker 19: But now today, I mean, it's the fastest growing church
- 18:19Speaker 19: in the world, you know, 20% a year.
- 18:23Speaker 1: So that's where you guys come in is you go
- 18:25Speaker 1: in and you plant those seeds. You're like, hey, did
- 18:27Speaker 1: you hear this story? No, I didn't. All right, let
- 18:29Speaker 1: me tell you the story. And as it does so
- 18:32Speaker 1: many places, it catches on like wildfire. How can the
- 18:37Speaker 1: listener help you? in advancing Native missionaries?
- 18:41Speaker 8: Yes.
- 18:42Speaker 19: Really, we keep it simple. The mantra is pray, give, go,
- 18:48Speaker 19: and all of us can pray. Most of us in
- 18:50Speaker 19: America can give because we're a wealthy nation. And then some,
- 18:54Speaker 19: the Lord may call to go on a short-term mission trip.
- 18:58Speaker 19: We don't send career missionaries over, but we do invest
- 19:01Speaker 19: in especially sending church teams over.
- 19:04Speaker 2: So those are the different ways.
- 19:05Speaker 1: We have tons.
- 19:06Speaker 19: Of prayer resources on our website. AdvancingNativeMissions.com. Again, tons of
- 19:11Speaker 19: opportunities to give. And then there are places you can
- 19:15Speaker 19: sign up and actually take a trip somewhere.
- 19:18Speaker 1: And you want to talk about bravery. And I was
- 19:24Speaker 1: struck by this. And again, my friends like John Quisenberry,
- 19:28Speaker 1: who's got his church.
- 19:29Speaker 11: And the.
- 19:38Speaker 2: The story is.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Of a guy, yes, the son of God, but a rabbi,
- 19:46Speaker 1: carpenter from a fishing village, not even a big fishing village. village,
- 19:52Speaker 1: walking around saying, hey, did you hear this story? And
- 19:57Speaker 1: people are like, I had no idea.
- 19:59Speaker 19: Really?
- 19:59Speaker 1: I thought, I mean, you know, Caesar and the Roman
- 20:05Speaker 1: legions and no, nope, nope. Tougher than the Roman legions.
- 20:13Speaker 1: And that's what these folks are doing, and millions in Iran.
- 20:21Speaker 1: And that's where the victory is going to be. That's
- 20:25Speaker 1: what really brought down the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union
- 20:29Speaker 1: came down because people got tired of the Politburo telling
- 20:35Speaker 1: them they couldn't go or inserting.
- 20:40Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I think somebody told me
- 20:41Speaker 1: that the just recently retired head of the Russian Orthodox
- 20:46Speaker 1: Church was actually a KGB plant that just stuck around
- 20:52Speaker 1: after the KGB, et cetera, had fallen. They said, these
- 20:57Speaker 1: Russian Orthodox, they're kind of into the church, so how
- 21:00Speaker 1: about we just insert KGB operatives into leadership positions, and
- 21:06Speaker 1: then they can tweak the narrative. I mean, it's kind
- 21:09Speaker 1: of what Mao did with Marxism and the Chinese culture.
- 21:17Speaker 1: But if somebody is telling you that they have authority
- 21:19Speaker 1: over you and you have no voice outside of what
- 21:22Speaker 1: they give you, it is anathema to God's plan. That's
- 21:34Speaker 1: why the first commandment is thou shall have no other
- 21:40Speaker 1: God before me. Because it's about understanding your role in
- 21:55Speaker 1: the world. And it's uplifting when people get it.

- 22:08Speaker 16: at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity in a

- 22:15Speaker 16: not need to be super intense. As a matter of fact,
- 22:17Speaker 16: it could just be you moving your body and doing
- 22:19Speaker 16: what you already love to do, like exercise. And a
- 22:22Speaker 16: stronger heart doesn't just mean cardio, right? It means also

- 24:07Speaker 6: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 6: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 6: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 6: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 6: reducing inflammation is a key component of to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 6: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 6: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer,
- 24:43Speaker 6: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 24:45Speaker 6: many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy

- 28:11Speaker 2: News and analysis, now without artificial colors. First thing today
- 28:16Speaker 2: by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 28:27Speaker 1: So many are talking about yesterday as Black Friday when
- 28:32Speaker 1: we couldn't come up with a verdict on somebody who
- 28:35Speaker 1: killed their own children. But we've been tracking here for
- 28:39Speaker 1: a while. I remember people when I was young in
- 28:46Speaker 1: the 70s celebrating David Berkowitz because there were people who
- 28:56Speaker 1: said he was attacking adulterers. Because if you remember Son
- 29:04Speaker 1: of Sam, you probably know that phrase you've heard of.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Son of Sam was targeting boys and girls who were,
- 29:17Speaker 1: for the lack of a better term, canoodling in the
- 29:21Speaker 1: back seats of their cars for the most part. And
- 29:26Speaker 1: there were people in New York at the time who
- 29:30Speaker 1: said that he was targeting fornicators, targeting immoral behavior. And
- 29:43Speaker 1: I remember hearing in some church service during the period
- 29:51Speaker 1: of time that that judgment is for God. and that
- 29:57Speaker 1: man is not allowed to make that judgment, that your
- 29:59Speaker 1: sin is your sin, and you will answer for it
- 30:03Speaker 1: to a higher authority, and that the only earthly punishments
- 30:08Speaker 1: should be on sins that impact someone else's life. Well,
- 30:15Speaker 1: thou shalt not murder. And we've just digressed away from
- 30:20Speaker 1: this And I know that it is controversial amongst my
- 30:25Speaker 1: Christian friends when I get into the sixth commandment. You know,
- 30:31Speaker 1: we talked about the first one, I am your Lord
- 30:33Speaker 1: God and you shall have no other gods before me.
- 30:36Speaker 1: That's about humility. That's about putting yourself back in your place.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Or as my friend Tom says, check yourself before you
- 30:44Speaker 1: wreck yourself. But the sixth commandment, thou shalt not murder.
- 30:51Speaker 1: And somewhere along the line, it gets cheapened to thou
- 30:58Speaker 1: shalt not kill. And I understand. It is laudable to
- 31:02Speaker 1: say thou shalt not kill. And like the old squares
- 31:07Speaker 1: and rectangles, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles
- 31:12Speaker 1: are squares. All murders are killings, but not all killings
- 31:19Speaker 1: are murders. And I know that, oh, it's like an
- 31:24Speaker 1: aqua velvet smack in your face to hear that. But
- 31:36Speaker 1: it's an important nuance that God told Moses that defending
- 31:43Speaker 1: yourself was okay. That sixth commandment is like God's second amendment. Oh,
- 31:53Speaker 1: I'm going to hear about that one. Yeah, you really
- 31:55Speaker 1: should have stopped me before I used that one because
- 31:58Speaker 1: I'm going to hear about it. I'll take it, but
- 32:00Speaker 1: I'm going to hear about it. Because God was saying, hey, listen,
- 32:05Speaker 1: if you have to defend yourself, defend yourself. That's not murder.
- 32:15Speaker 1: I'm not sure how you can make the case. And
- 32:19Speaker 1: I got this text message from Janice. She said, Thank
- 32:21Speaker 1: you for expressing the fact that even you can be
- 32:28Speaker 1: confused by the way lawyers file cases. Yes, I believe
- 32:34Speaker 1: she was charged with first-degree murder so as to get
- 32:39Speaker 1: an acquittal. I'm talking about Lindsay Clancy, that she was, quote,
- 32:46Speaker 1: overcharged and that the prosecutor... brought the case knowing that
- 32:53Speaker 1: what they had was going to fall short of being
- 32:56Speaker 1: able to be provable first-degree murder. So he basically set
- 33:01Speaker 1: it up so she could take a walk under the
- 33:05Speaker 1: psychiatric defense that David Berkowitz used. Let's go back to
- 33:09Speaker 1: Son of Sam. David Berkowitz is a minister now. David
- 33:15Speaker 1: Berkowitz is a prison minister.
- 33:19Speaker 23: Who.
- 33:22Speaker 1: As regularly as clockwork is, applying for parole. I'll bet you,
- 33:27Speaker 1: now that David Hinckley is out on the street looking
- 33:31Speaker 1: for gigs in coffee shops to play his folk songs
- 33:33Speaker 1: about Jodie Foster, allegedly, I'm sure David Berkowitz's next filing
- 33:45Speaker 1: for parole will be lots of, hey, you know what,
- 33:48Speaker 1: you let Hinckley go and But he is actually a
- 33:54Speaker 1: prison minister now. He's found, and part of his parole
- 34:00Speaker 1: requests are always, I found God, I realize what I
- 34:02Speaker 1: did wrong now, and I want to minister. And the
- 34:06Speaker 1: New York State Parole Board says, you walked, you wandered around,
- 34:12Speaker 1: you terrorized an entire city and killed a bunch of them,
- 34:16Speaker 1: grievously injuring a bunch of others. I'm going to keep
- 34:21Speaker 1: you in the big house for a while. Even though,
- 34:24Speaker 1: I mean, his argument was the dog next door was
- 34:28Speaker 1: telling him to go walk the streets and shoot people
- 34:32Speaker 1: as they made out in the back seats of their cars.
- 34:38Speaker 1: If that doesn't, you know, and they couldn't come up
- 34:41Speaker 1: with a murder charge for him. There's like second degree.
- 34:44Speaker 1: I remember I was, what, 14 at the time? And
- 34:54Speaker 1: I was just beginning my dating life, as grabastic as
- 34:58Speaker 1: that was. I had a girlfriend. And my mother was
- 35:04Speaker 1: freaking out about it. I would take the subway into
- 35:09Speaker 1: Jackson Heights once or twice a week to see my girlfriend.
- 35:14Speaker 1: And we'd go out and have a slice of pizza
- 35:16Speaker 1: or hang around. We didn't have a car because I
- 35:18Speaker 1: was 14. but we would neck on the side of
- 35:24Speaker 1: the road somewhere, leaning up against, you know, a mailbox
- 35:27Speaker 1: or whatever, right out of, you know, some Patrick Swayze movie, right?
- 35:32Speaker 2: Oh, so romantic, Joe.
- 35:35Speaker 1: Sweep me off my feet, right? But my mother would,
- 35:41Speaker 1: and I never knew my mother to be this kind
- 35:43Speaker 1: of person. I would come home and she'd be sitting
- 35:46Speaker 1: there waiting for me. I'm like, wow, what are you doing?
- 35:49Speaker 1: She's like, I'm, scared out of my wits because this
- 35:52Speaker 1: guy's going around shooting people or doing what I'm sure
- 35:55Speaker 1: you're doing.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Fair cop.
- 36:00Speaker 1: And it did come home to me. One of his
- 36:03Speaker 1: shootings was in my neighborhood outside of a nightclub called
- 36:09Speaker 1: Ella Foss. And I remember walking to school that Monday
- 36:11Speaker 1: morning after the shooting and all the police tape and
- 36:14Speaker 1: the broken glass and the Evidence markers and everything else
- 36:18Speaker 1: were still around. I'm like, what the heck? I get
- 36:21Speaker 1: to school and everyone's like, David, son of Sam was here.
- 36:24Speaker 1: Son of Sam was here. And it turned out one
- 36:27Speaker 1: of my best friends was one of the chief detectives
- 36:29Speaker 1: in the case after the fact I found this out.
- 36:32Speaker 1: He retired after finally putting the guy away. But we
- 36:39Speaker 1: weren't even able to figure, you know, as callously as
- 36:42Speaker 1: he walked up to cars and just shot into the backseat.
- 36:47Speaker 1: We couldn't come up to murder there. And some of
- 36:53Speaker 1: it is because of the death penalty. Because Christians don't
- 36:59Speaker 1: believe in that kind of eye for an eye criminal
- 37:03Speaker 1: justice that, you know, God's the only one that can
- 37:07Speaker 1: take a life. Obviously, a murderer has broken that covenant.
- 37:18Speaker 1: But it's this weakening of the language. It's saying, well,
- 37:23Speaker 1: we just don't want you killing. Well, what's murder? And
- 37:26Speaker 1: then it becomes a court of man. And that's where
- 37:30Speaker 1: the root of changing the sixth commandment comes in. Because
- 37:36Speaker 1: if thou shalt not kill is the commandment, well, then
- 37:38Speaker 1: it's much easier to say. And then you don't have
- 37:41Speaker 1: to rise to the point of proving whether it was
- 37:44Speaker 1: murder or not. Or if it was self-defense, it spares
- 37:50Speaker 1: the community that difficult decision that apparently was played out
- 37:55Speaker 1: right before us in Massachusetts yesterday afternoon.
- 38:01Speaker 15: In 2024, the American Heart Association celebrates 100 years of
- 38:06Speaker 15: life-saving service as the world's leading nonprofit organization focused on
- 38:10Speaker 15: heart and brain health. Heart disease still kills more people
- 38:13Speaker 15: in the United States each year than all types of
- 38:15Speaker 15: cancer combined, but more than half of Americans are unaware
- 38:18Speaker 15: of this fact, according to a recent Harris Poll survey
- 38:22Speaker 15: conducted for the American Heart Association. However, the majority of
- 38:25Speaker 15: heart disease is preventable. New research has improved the prevention, diagnosis,
- 38:30Speaker 15: and treatment of heart disease and its risk factors. Efforts

- 41:12Speaker 12: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 12: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:22Speaker 12: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 12: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:28Speaker 12: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:33Speaker 12: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,

- 43:07Speaker 15: Okay, don't tell.
- 43:08Speaker 2: Me what to do.
- 43:09Speaker 3: Cannonball!
- 43:12Speaker 16: Cramp!
- 43:13Speaker 3: Oh, I have a cramp.
- 43:16Speaker 7: I can probably hit the green from here.
- 43:19Speaker 2: Probably.
- 43:24Speaker 7: Can I get a mulligan?
- 43:26Speaker 8: Ready to go?
- 43:27Speaker 15: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 43:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sober.
- 43:32Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 43:35Speaker 3: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 43:39Speaker 3: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 43:42Speaker 3: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message
- 43:45Speaker 3: brought to you by NHTSA and the Ad Council.
- 43:48Speaker 7: You know the legal drinking age is 21. You may
- 43:51Speaker 7: also know this law protects teens. Find out more at DontServeTeens.gov.
- 43:56Speaker 7: A message from the We Don't Serve Teens program and
- 43:58Speaker 7: the Federal Trade Commission.
- 44:10Speaker 11: Here is the sound of thousands of sounds.
- 44:12Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Tonk Media Network.
- 44:17Speaker 2: All natural and free of artificial intelligence.
- 44:21Speaker 19: I know I said I love you.
- 44:24Speaker 6: I know you know it's true.
- 44:27Speaker 8: I'm not to put.
- 44:28Speaker 19: The phone down.
- 44:29Speaker 2: You do what we gotta do.
- 44:34Speaker 7: Coming up this.
- 44:36Speaker 17: Week, we will be in Shanksville, Pennsylvania for the 25th.
- 44:48Speaker 18: Anniversary of.
- 45:02Speaker 1: Of the day, Americans reminded us what Americans do when
- 45:07Speaker 1: they're faced with tyranny, when they're faced with assault. We
- 45:15Speaker 1: are the first responders. That's the message of Todd Beamer
- 45:22Speaker 1: and the rest of the passengers of Flight 93 was
- 45:25Speaker 1: that they are the first responders. And, you know, we'll
- 45:33Speaker 1: be there, a lot of coverage of the events going on.
- 45:37Speaker 1: I want to talk to folks who were there. I
- 45:39Speaker 1: want to talk to folks who were anywhere. And I
- 45:43Speaker 1: remember one of the most tangible points, it begins on
- 45:48Speaker 1: that Tuesday morning. My news person, we were at Star 102.5
- 45:55Speaker 1: in Buffalo at the time doing mornings.
- 46:00Speaker 2: I've heard.
- 46:01Speaker 1: rumblings and grumblings about Western New York. I'd love to
- 46:04Speaker 1: be back on so much unfinished business in Western New York.
- 46:07Speaker 1: And I really did. I love Buffalo, New York. But
- 46:13Speaker 1: we were on the air, dewy mornings, and our news
- 46:16Speaker 1: person came running in and said, oh my God, there's
- 46:19Speaker 1: been a plane crash in New York. And we put
- 46:24Speaker 1: on the TV to, I think it was Fox, CNN, probably,
- 46:30Speaker 1: And there was smoke coming from a hole on the
- 46:33Speaker 1: side of one of the World Trade Center towers. And
- 46:36Speaker 1: understand that that is exactly what that first crash was
- 46:40Speaker 1: designed to do. You have to think like a terrorist,
- 46:47Speaker 1: somebody who is seeking to weaponize your life against you.
- 46:53Speaker 1: It does you no good if you're a terrorist in
- 46:56Speaker 1: the woods and nobody is there to hear you make
- 46:58Speaker 1: a sound. So that first plane was to get everyone
- 47:05Speaker 1: to put the TV on. And less than 15 minutes later,
- 47:12Speaker 1: and understand this, 15 minutes goes by from the first plane,
- 47:16Speaker 1: maybe 13, 14 minutes go by from when the first
- 47:21Speaker 1: plane crashes into the World Trade Center towers until the
- 47:26Speaker 1: second one does. Because they wanted to make damn sure
- 47:29Speaker 1: we all saw that happen live. My four-year-old son watched
- 47:37Speaker 1: it happen live. I had to explain that one to him.
- 47:41Speaker 1: I did. I don't fear these kind of explanations. But
- 47:49Speaker 1: that was what they wanted us to do. They wanted
- 47:51Speaker 1: every TV, it didn't matter whether it was Nickelodeon or CBS.
- 47:58Speaker 1: We now go live, too. They trained all their cameras
- 48:01Speaker 1: on the World Trade Center towers, and we all watched,
- 48:05Speaker 1: just like we collectively watched the Columbia explode. And then
- 48:17Speaker 1: there's smoke from the Pentagon. There's smoke from the Pentagon.
- 48:22Speaker 2: What happened?
- 48:26Speaker 1: And then at the end, there was a plane crash
- 48:28Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, just shy of an elementary school, by the way.
- 48:35Speaker 1: I found that out on the fifth anniversary of September
- 48:38Speaker 1: 11th when we broadcasted live from Shanksville. And we go
- 48:42Speaker 1: to Shanksville because it's the moment where, knowing full well
- 48:47Speaker 1: what was in store for them, a bunch of Americans said,
- 48:50Speaker 1: not on this plane, period. And there are those who
- 48:57Speaker 1: seek to denigrate what you and I do and will
- 49:00Speaker 1: go out and say that somehow I'm cheapening the memory
- 49:04Speaker 1: of those lost at Cantor Fitzgerald or the thousands who
- 49:08Speaker 1: lost their lives, the firefighters.
- 49:10Speaker 2: No, I'm not.
- 49:11Speaker 1: I'm just saying that once they realized what was going on,
- 49:14Speaker 1: the passengers of Flight 93 said, not this plane. And
- 49:24Speaker 1: I remember five years later, we're in a field, literally
- 49:30Speaker 1: a field with electric current and telephone lines strung out
- 49:33Speaker 1: to it. So CNN and NBC and my little old
- 49:38Speaker 1: radio station from the Philadelphia suburbs could be live from there.
- 49:42Speaker 1: Rick Santorum was our senator at the time and joined
- 49:45Speaker 1: me as my co-host that morning. And it was still
- 49:50Speaker 1: just a field. It was an old strip mine. You
- 49:53Speaker 1: could see the charred segments that's trying to grow back
- 49:57Speaker 1: of the pine trees off in the distance and the
- 50:00Speaker 1: makeshift memorial fence full of tributes. And I remember another
- 50:07Speaker 1: distinguished moment there when my wife and my three children
- 50:11Speaker 1: were confronted by the Westboro Baptists.
- 50:16Speaker 2: Who told.
- 50:19Speaker 1: My wife and my children that they were all going
- 50:21Speaker 1: to hell because the man of the family supported a
- 50:26Speaker 1: president that allowed people to be gay. So September 11th
- 50:32Speaker 1: has a lot of religious extremism running through it for me.
- 50:42Speaker 1: And hopefully we can all make it sensible for you
- 50:45Speaker 1: as you gather with us. And I want to thank
- 50:47Speaker 1: our friends at Big Ridge Guns and Archery and the
- 50:52Speaker 1: Heritage Guide to Historic Sites, who, you know, hotels don't
- 50:56Speaker 1: give you the room for free just because you're there
- 50:59Speaker 1: to cover a news event. But where have we gone
- 51:05Speaker 1: in 25 years? And I was just looking at a
- 51:07Speaker 1: story about President Trump delisting Syria and and all the
- 51:11Speaker 1: people that are within that Syrian delisting of a state
- 51:15Speaker 1: sponsor of terror. And I couldn't help but think, and
- 51:21Speaker 1: you can say whether this is apt or not because
- 51:23Speaker 1: of the religious fervor that goes around radical Islam. But
- 51:34Speaker 1: two points I want to leave you with before we
- 51:37Speaker 1: finish up this morning. Number one, we were talking about
- 51:39Speaker 1: advancing Native missions. I'm sure that Iranian television has some
- 51:45Speaker 1: pretty harsh things to say about Christian ministries that show
- 51:49Speaker 1: up there and convert people to Christianity on the streets
- 51:53Speaker 1: of Tehran, or at least in the basements around Tehran.
- 51:57Speaker 1: I'm sure there are some fairly harsh things to say
- 52:00Speaker 1: about that kind of thing. But I'm reminded of, I
- 52:06Speaker 1: think it was Mort Saul, the comedian, who said that
- 52:16Speaker 1: Werner Von Braun's book, I Shoot for the Stars, should
- 52:20Speaker 1: be subtitled, but sometimes I hit London, because these were
- 52:28Speaker 1: Nazi missile makers, steely-eyed Nazi missile men, who came here
- 52:33Speaker 1: to say, hey, how about we make missiles for you?
- 52:38Speaker 1: It's something Dr. Clark said some time ago. You know,
- 52:40Speaker 1: look at our allies, Britain, German, Japan. Think about it,
- 52:46Speaker 1: and we'll convene Monday morning at 5. So long, and thanks.
- 52:49Speaker 2: For all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 15: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
- 52:53Speaker 15: compression of spinal nerves. According to Dr. Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
- 52:57Speaker 15: California-based chiropractor with more than 30 years of experience, this
- 53:01Speaker 15: compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury, or
- 53:05Speaker 15: simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
- 53:09Speaker 15: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
- 53:12Speaker 15: the neck and back, Dr. Fisher explains. His inventions, the
- 53:16Speaker 15: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device,
- 53:20Speaker 15: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
- 53:24Speaker 15: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction Devices are
- 53:27Speaker 15: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
- 53:30Speaker 15: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
- 53:33Speaker 15: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
- 53:36Speaker 15: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your home.
- 53:38Speaker 17: And Dr.
- 53:39Speaker 15: Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful videos and detailed instructions.
