0:40
Speaker 4: this morning. Four three four eight A two four two
0:46
Speaker 4: one seven is the phone number multitasker. Really, you can
0:50
Speaker 4: text message as well once we've told you about what
0:52
Speaker 4: went on last night, and you can follow along. And
0:57
Speaker 4: if you think we missed something or if we're seeing
1:00
Speaker 4: it from the wrong angle, I want to hear how
1:02
Speaker 4: it's impacting you where you are at the same numbers
1:05
Speaker 4: four three four eight eight two four two one seven
1:08
Speaker 4: for conversation or text message, because I understand how mornings
1:13
Speaker 4: are their cacophony of a million things that you've put
1:17
Speaker 4: off to the last minute. And guess what last minutes now?
1:21
Speaker 4: So uh holler something at voice to text and hits
1:25
Speaker 4: in We will do our level best to read your
1:27
Speaker 4: words into the public record. This one from Mark, who
1:32
Speaker 4: writes in from New Orleans. He said, I appreciate what
1:36
Speaker 4: you were saying about investigations before, Joe. We are here
1:41
Speaker 4: in New Orleans for a conference on forensic science. I
1:46
Speaker 4: love that. I love it. Apparently there's there's some big
1:51
Speaker 4: forensics conference going on in New Orleans. I heard your
1:55
Speaker 4: comments about Elvis Costello and your listener correcting you about it.
1:59
Speaker 4: I was about to call you to do that. Could
2:01
Speaker 4: you play it? Well, we're not. And unfortunately in New
2:06
Speaker 4: Orleans you you get the show in bits and pieces.
2:10
Speaker 4: You missed it. We did already, Mark, So I appreciate that.
2:14
Speaker 4: I'm probably not going to do it again. Uh, but
2:16
Speaker 4: you know it's it is formatic, you know what. Save it,
2:19
Speaker 4: Save it for the next time. We get into the
2:21
Speaker 4: Guthrie story. And here's a real quick one, just to
2:25
Speaker 4: be a pain, I'm going to tell you quickly the
2:27
Speaker 4: story of Athena. Is it Athena Lee for our friends
2:33
Speaker 4: in Sacramento went missing in Sacramento, California. K A Hi,
2:40
Speaker 4: I think it's the station there went missing in twenty
2:44
Speaker 4: twenty four, July eighth, and I presume Sacramento radio had
2:50
Speaker 4: and television had stories about Athena Lee's going missing. But
2:55
Speaker 4: this is international intrigue. They say, you know, if you
2:57
Speaker 4: have any tips on this call the American Consulate. There's
3:02
Speaker 4: some serious stuff going on there. So as we get
3:06
Speaker 4: into our first things today here on the talk media network,
3:10
Speaker 4: we appreciate everyone joining in either through emails or phone calls.
3:14
Speaker 4: We'll get to you there in a second, but we
3:16
Speaker 4: must do our first things first so that you know
3:21
Speaker 4: what's been going on and then we can discuss. I mean,
3:24
Speaker 4: it wouldn't be fair for me to say what do
3:25
Speaker 4: you think about the news without telling you what it was.
3:28
Speaker 4: Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer took to podiums yesterday and
3:33
Speaker 4: said the president's counter proposal regarding DHS budget funding was
3:41
Speaker 4: bereft of details and legislative texts. The two leaders said,
3:45
Speaker 4: with a deadline coming Saturday for the DHS budget, threatening
3:49
Speaker 4: another partial government shutdown, the FBI is answering questions from
3:57
Speaker 4: the press having been tipped that Vanna Guthrie's family has
4:01
Speaker 4: been talking with the suspected kidnappers. The FBI says they
4:05
Speaker 4: have no such information. If you have information on the
4:08
Speaker 4: other one hundred and twenty four current open kidnapping cases
4:12
Speaker 4: that aren't making it to the national news. The FBI
4:14
Speaker 4: says you can look there at FBI dot gov. Actually,
4:17
Speaker 4: that was me saying that the FBI's moot on the subject.
4:21
Speaker 4: Amber Glenn is in trouble. She is the Olympic gold
4:25
Speaker 4: medal winning skater who apparently was using somebody's music without
4:30
Speaker 4: their permission. The artist who records under the name Clan
4:38
Speaker 4: has taken to social media asking why it was okay
4:43
Speaker 4: for her to use his song The Return without his permission.
4:48
Speaker 4: I'm sure a check will be cut at some point.
4:50
Speaker 4: The US Marine Corps, for the third time consecutively, has
4:54
Speaker 4: passed its financial audit. It's the only branch of the
4:58
Speaker 4: military to do so. The War Department, as total, has
5:01
Speaker 4: yet to pass a clean financial audit. Lawmakers from Congressman
5:10
Speaker 4: James Comey's committee tried to interview Glaine Maxwell over questions
5:16
Speaker 4: they have regarding the Epstein files. She sought the Fifth
5:20
Speaker 4: Amendment protection in all those instances. However, she is now
5:25
Speaker 4: also asking that her conviction be overturned or that President
5:29
Speaker 4: Trump grant her clemency. The Vatican has cleared the way
5:34
Speaker 4: for the beatification of Bishop Fulton Sheen died in nineteen
5:38
Speaker 4: seventy nine, a step that would formerly recognize the Illinois
5:42
Speaker 4: born priest and broadcaster as blessed, placing him closer to
5:46
Speaker 4: possible sainthood. Of course, the pope being from Chicago, that
5:52
Speaker 4: would not be a stretch for many. Right would he
5:55
Speaker 4: be the first sainted broadcaster? Those are our first things
6:00
Speaker 4: for this Tuesday morning on the talk media network. No,
6:05
Speaker 4: I'm not suggesting, no please need no.
6:15
Speaker 7: Hi.

6:18
Speaker 9: and former Virginia Tech football coach. When I brought the
6:20
Speaker 9: fame lunch fail to our team and symbolized teamwork, the

7:03
Speaker 5: youngest son had something minor turned into something very major
7:06
Speaker 5: in a matter of hours.
7:07
Speaker 4: It was Medishare that came through for us, and there
7:10
Speaker 4: was no hassles, there was no problem.

7:28
Speaker 6: with you through the hardest times of your life.

7:34
Speaker 10: old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
7:37
Speaker 10: each other's medical bills.
7:39
Speaker 11: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
7:41
Speaker 6: You can focus on on supporting other people.
7:43
Speaker 8: Medashare is affordable.
7:45
Speaker 9: Medishare is biblical.
7:46
Speaker 12: Medishare is family.
7:47
Speaker 10: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
7:50
Speaker 10: your healthcare and support your family when you need it.

Speaker 13: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas. Yes,
8:08
Speaker 13: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
8:13
Speaker 13: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
8:18
Speaker 13: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
8:23
Speaker 13: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
8:28
Speaker 13: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
8:32
Speaker 13: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
8:36
Speaker 13: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
8:39
Speaker 13: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
8:42
Speaker 13: your hands and feet. Well, our product, ultimate nitric oxide,
8:47
Speaker 13: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

9:37
Speaker 15: than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like

11:05
Speaker 11: you recognize them by their clothes, their age, the way
11:10
Speaker 11: they speak. Would you notice a sixteen year old boy
11:13
Speaker 11: you've got.

Speaker 6: His first job for extra spending money, but to help
11:17
Speaker 6: feed his little sisters.

12:09
Speaker 18: the press, freedom to peaceably assemble, freedom to petition the government.
12:14
Speaker 18: Which freedom can you live without? Fortunately, the First Amendment

13:08
Speaker 3: The First Thing Today on the Tunk Media Network by
13:15
Speaker 3: Joe Thomas, the second most famous Thomas in Charlotte's Will.
13:31
Speaker 4: Ken writes in Longtime Listener, First time caller, uh he
13:36
Speaker 4: puts in the He says, I know that sometimes you
13:39
Speaker 4: get into a mood and you'll confess at some point
13:42
Speaker 4: that your last good nerve is being plucked. I imagine
13:45
Speaker 4: this is a time to cue the banjos. You seem
13:49
Speaker 4: like you're all wound up this morning. No, actually I'm not.
13:56
Speaker 4: I mean, sometimes you know, things they they they irk me,
14:03
Speaker 4: and and sometimes it irks me that it doesn't irk
14:06
Speaker 4: other people. And you know, as a as a source
14:12
Speaker 4: of some sort of societal field guide. You know, we
14:18
Speaker 4: my dear friend Tom has an expression, check yourself before
14:21
Speaker 4: you wreck yourself. I'm sure it's not his. I'm sure
14:23
Speaker 4: it came from somewhere else. But you know, we know,
14:27
Speaker 4: we reward these media outlets for you know, playing these
14:31
Speaker 4: games with us, because meanwhile, you know, the government shutdown
14:36
Speaker 4: is going on the debate about whether or not ICE
14:39
Speaker 4: agents will have to go to a judge ask for
14:44
Speaker 4: a warrant. And we know the judges in most of
14:47
Speaker 4: these communities would never call the local press or the
14:51
Speaker 4: mayor or the police chief and say, hey, the Immigration
14:55
Speaker 4: Custom Enforcement just petition me for a warrant to search
15:00
Speaker 4: four oh four Broad Street. We know judges, judges, No,
15:06
Speaker 4: they wouldn't sneak an illegal out the back door of
15:09
Speaker 4: their courtroom to protect them. No, that would never happen.
15:15
Speaker 4: So they want, you know, ICE officers when given a
15:18
Speaker 4: complaint to and then they want the end of racial
15:21
Speaker 4: profiling and ICE operations. So if we arrest somebody from
15:29
Speaker 4: Guatemala because they're here illegally, do we have to stop
15:34
Speaker 4: arresting other Guatemalans until we've arrested an equal number of
15:38
Speaker 4: Chinese Communists or Caucasians from I don't know Scotland, because
15:46
Speaker 4: it sounds like they want to institute a quota on
15:49
Speaker 4: the arrests you're going to make. It's Chuck Schumer is
15:55
Speaker 4: going to own this shutdown that's going to happen on Saturday.
15:58
Speaker 4: I can see it right now, unless you get enough
16:00
Speaker 4: John McCain Republicans out there, the Fabian Republicans given and say, oh,
16:06
Speaker 4: don't you think we believe in warrants? The Fourth Amendment.
16:10
Speaker 4: The Fourth Amendment says you have to have a warrant
16:13
Speaker 4: to search a premises unless there's exigent circumstance and just
16:22
Speaker 4: going somewhere and saying hey, do you have your immigration papers?
16:27
Speaker 4: Is not an illegal search. And the Fourth Amendment doesn't
16:30
Speaker 4: say you can't search a property. And it's about your
16:35
Speaker 4: papers and your documents, not about you. I know there
16:41
Speaker 4: are civil liberty lawyers who would say that your immigration
16:45
Speaker 4: status is something you should have to get a warrant
16:47
Speaker 4: to ask for. That's what they're trying to do. They're
16:49
Speaker 4: trying to enable the open borders so that all of
16:53
Speaker 4: us who have citizenship in this country don't matter anymore.
16:58
Speaker 4: Leally tear it up. So why the press is still
17:01
Speaker 4: telling you about the story of Oh, we've got a
17:03
Speaker 4: local sheriff who's going to tell us why the sheriff's
17:05
Speaker 4: office is saying that there's been contact with the kidnapper.
17:09
Speaker 4: And now we've got our former FBI field agent who's
17:12
Speaker 4: going to tell us what this means. And hours and
17:15
Speaker 4: hours of coverage of Savannah Guthrie's mother's kidnapping. The reason
17:20
Speaker 4: I'm bringing up the one and twenty four current FBI
17:23
Speaker 4: cases is because you're being distracted from stuff that's going
17:29
Speaker 4: to have a much more substantive impact on your life.
17:33
Speaker 4: So maybe, yeah, maybe you know you Q Glenn Campbell
17:36
Speaker 4: again and see because yeah, that's a great Glenn Campbell,
17:41
Speaker 4: by the way, before Alzheimer's took him from us. Maybe
17:48
Speaker 4: this is my last good nerve this morning. I didn't
17:51
Speaker 4: even realize it until you brought it up. Kenny, paddle faster.
17:58
Speaker 4: I hear banjo's Jowel is on the line with us
18:02
Speaker 4: at four three four eight eight two four to two
18:04
Speaker 4: one seven. What's going on Joel this morning? Joel? Oh, no,
18:10
Speaker 4: Joel isn't there yet. James is there? James Lock from
18:13
Speaker 4: the Jefferson Coin Shop is there, then, Joel, Joel's online.
18:16
Speaker 4: Two apologies. Apparently my banjos are playing really loudly in
18:20
Speaker 4: my head. James, how are you doing this morning?
18:24
Speaker 20: I'm doing well, Joe, and Gold and Silver are just
18:27
Speaker 20: slightly below even today. Gold is at five thousand and
18:31
Speaker 20: forty six dollars. He got all the way up to
18:33
Speaker 20: five thousand and eighty dollars yesterday during the day, a
18:37
Speaker 20: great climb, breaking back above five thousand dollars and settling
18:41
Speaker 20: here at five thousand and forty six, which is down
18:45
Speaker 20: just about a quarter for a percent so far from
18:47
Speaker 20: where it got yesterday, down eleven dollars, but silver's down
18:51
Speaker 20: just about one and a half percent to it. Just
18:54
Speaker 20: sh I have eighty two dollars at eighty one ninety
18:58
Speaker 20: so far, so also a great level there for silver.
19:01
Speaker 20: Buff medals are trying to figure out if they can
19:04
Speaker 20: make another run to the all time highs and press discovery.
19:07
Speaker 4: But you mentioned it a little bit yesterday in our visit, James.
19:11
Speaker 4: You know, you guys keep graphs. It's like, you know,
19:13
Speaker 4: the old it was a Ross Perot campaign is on
19:16
Speaker 4: your website because there are all these graphs and charts
19:19
Speaker 4: that will show gold and silver not just where it was, oh,
19:22
Speaker 4: I don't know, February tenth of twenty twenty five, but
19:25
Speaker 4: also in comparison to things like crude oil and the
19:29
Speaker 4: Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange, so that people
19:33
Speaker 4: when they talk to you, and believe me, I don't
19:35
Speaker 4: want people just buying gold because the guy in the
19:38
Speaker 4: radio said so please, but talk to the Luck family.
19:42
Speaker 4: It's not a call center at four three four nine
19:45
Speaker 4: seven nine coin ten am Eastern, but you can start
19:49
Speaker 4: off by looking at these charts so you get kind
19:51
Speaker 4: of a better feel of what's going on in the world,
19:53
Speaker 4: right James.
19:56
Speaker 20: Yeah, that's exactly right. And my brother does give me
19:58
Speaker 20: a hard time because I talk about the charts and
20:00
Speaker 20: graphs there at jcsquot dot com and he said, he said,
20:05
Speaker 20: it's not like it's not really like you know, stock charting.
20:08
Speaker 20: It's not a whole lot of charts and stuff. You know,
20:10
Speaker 20: you're making it sound like this big deal. And he's right,
20:13
Speaker 20: it's not overwhelming. It's very easy to read. It really
20:17
Speaker 20: is just a graph of the historical performance of gold
20:22
Speaker 20: and silver, just so you can see the bigger picture
20:24
Speaker 20: and you can compare it to other investments, you know,
20:28
Speaker 20: other big investments sure in the world. And that's why
20:30
Speaker 20: we always say that gold and silver is part of
20:33
Speaker 20: your portfolio, not necessarily all of your eggs in one basket,
20:36
Speaker 20: but it's good to have a position, you know, in
20:39
Speaker 20: the stock market and in physical gold and silver. So
20:43
Speaker 20: him and I joke about that quite a bit. But
20:46
Speaker 20: it is fun to take a look there at those charts,
20:49
Speaker 20: just so you can see the performance of gold over
20:51
Speaker 20: the past ten years.
20:52
Speaker 4: It's pretty cool. And that's the kind of thing you
20:54
Speaker 4: get in a family business. I'll bet you some of
20:56
Speaker 4: these big corporate gold dealers, nobody's needling each other until
20:59
Speaker 4: human resources gets called in, which I imagine is when
21:03
Speaker 4: Mom gets called in to referee these kind of things
21:07
Speaker 4: going on between you guys. Anyway, you knuckleheads, be good.

28:21
Speaker 3: First thing today on the Talk media Network by Joe Thomas,
28:26
Speaker 3: the second most famous Thomas in Charlottesville.
28:29
Speaker 4: That's US four three four eight eight two four two
28:32
Speaker 4: one seven email from Mary who sent in this one,
28:36
Speaker 4: and she's she's got the best point on this, she said, Joe,
28:41
Speaker 4: the statistics are skewed. That you're using a lot of
28:44
Speaker 4: the missing person's reports are runaways as well, they're not
28:48
Speaker 4: necessarily kidnappings on the FBI website, and that that is
28:54
Speaker 4: some of the questions surrounding the Savannah Gothrie cases. Is
28:57
Speaker 4: it a runaway?
28:59
Speaker 21: Is it.
29:01
Speaker 4: Is it a kidnapping? I understand that and if we
29:06
Speaker 4: and Mary maybe maybe pick up on your email here
29:09
Speaker 4: and then we'll get to Joel. If we use a
29:13
Speaker 4: celebrity story to bring highlight to something else, that's one thing.
29:20
Speaker 4: And I've been looking at some of the coverage and
29:23
Speaker 4: maybe you've seen some and I haven't, but I don't
29:27
Speaker 4: see any links to you know, AID agencies, missing and
29:31
Speaker 4: exploited children, any of these international rescue groups like the
29:37
Speaker 4: Caveasle movie highlighted, you know, who are out there looking
29:40
Speaker 4: for victims of human trafficking. Let's let's use use this
29:47
Speaker 4: opportunity while the eyes of the world are paying attention
29:51
Speaker 4: to the Savannah Gothrie case, you know, and maybe you
29:55
Speaker 4: know Savannah will do this in the future. Certainly, I
29:57
Speaker 4: wouldn't ask somebody whose mother is missing at the moment
30:00
Speaker 4: to say, hey, could you go on and do the
30:03
Speaker 4: radio show every morning and pretend like nothing's wrong. I mean,
30:06
Speaker 4: I did it, but I don't ask anyone else to
30:09
Speaker 4: go through it the way I did. But that's just me.
30:14
Speaker 4: But if we use it to raise awareness for these
30:18
Speaker 4: groups that go internationally searching for missing and exploited children
30:23
Speaker 4: and kidnapping and that kind of thing, that's a different story,
30:27
Speaker 4: and that would be fine with me. And you're right,
30:30
Speaker 4: some of these are runaways. They're missing, not necessarily, but
30:33
Speaker 4: a lot of them are you know, human trafficking as well.
30:37
Speaker 4: It's like homelessness. Not everyone becomes for the same reason. No,
30:42
Speaker 4: I'm not using the new word, not unhoused. They're homeless. Joel.
30:49
Speaker 4: Thank you for hanging on the line and indulging us
30:51
Speaker 4: to what's on your mind.
30:54
Speaker 21: Good morning, Joe. Excuse me for clear my right. The
30:58
Speaker 21: biggest as a nurse, and I know you're going to
31:03
Speaker 21: jump on it right away, but is if she was
31:06
Speaker 21: so brittle, Nancy Guthrie was so brittle as far as
31:09
Speaker 21: like her ability to walk and get short of breath,
31:12
Speaker 21: why was she still driving a car and living in
31:15
Speaker 21: a house, a big house like that alone, And why
31:19
Speaker 21: didn't she have a life alert you know something to
31:21
Speaker 21: where she could you know, the pull the tack because
31:25
Speaker 21: it is it's not necessarily remote in the sense that
31:29
Speaker 21: everything's far away. It's just as they say, they have
31:32
Speaker 21: high and low uh terrain around those houses and people
31:38
Speaker 21: are separated by visibility.
31:40
Speaker 4: And I guess, but that's a great point onto what
31:43
Speaker 4: I was saying just before we came to your call,
31:46
Speaker 4: is use this story to talk about life alert, talk
31:49
Speaker 4: about elder care, talk about you know, independent living because
31:54
Speaker 4: I know a lot of folks my mother until COVID
31:57
Speaker 4: gobbled her up or you know, a trip to the
31:59
Speaker 4: hospital and a need to have her in the COVID
32:02
Speaker 4: ward gobbled her up. You choose, I know what me
32:08
Speaker 4: and my sister think. But if you if you use
32:12
Speaker 4: this attention getting to talk about things like life alert,
32:16
Speaker 4: things about elder care, things about you know, home you
32:20
Speaker 4: know care versus independent living facilities, and discussion about it.
32:25
Speaker 4: And I'm not talking about sales pitching for a sponsor.
32:28
Speaker 4: I'm talking about honest discussions. Like with the Alzheimer's Association.
32:32
Speaker 4: I wish they were still coming on and doing regular
32:35
Speaker 4: segments with us. They're they're refocusing on digital more than
32:41
Speaker 4: they are broadcast. Maybe they'll and they'll probably change their
32:44
Speaker 4: mind when they realize how many folks are like you know,
32:46
Speaker 4: how many people listen to you on the radio. But
32:49
Speaker 4: that used to be a Tuesday features. We would talk
32:51
Speaker 4: to the Alzheimer's Association about these very things about supporting
32:56
Speaker 4: elder care and and you know, and the organization that
33:00
Speaker 4: will help you with someone to come into your home
33:02
Speaker 4: if you have to work or support you while you're
33:05
Speaker 4: working and and all of that stuff. Joel. So, I mean,
33:08
Speaker 4: that's that's exactly what I'm talking about, is those sorts
33:10
Speaker 4: of things. Is life Alert, you know, and the sheriff's
33:14
Speaker 4: you know, encouraging more sheriff's departments to have you know,
33:17
Speaker 4: Silver alert, you know, situations where they do welfare checks
33:22
Speaker 4: more frequently and that kind of stuff. Anyway, second point
33:24
Speaker 4: to louder.
33:26
Speaker 21: Than the first, Well, I get to hear any of
33:29
Speaker 21: the you know, because I'm on a online on my phone.
33:34
Speaker 4: Well I'm also very secretive.
33:36
Speaker 11: So you know.
33:38
Speaker 21: But no, but I'm just saying, like I said, I
33:42
Speaker 21: didn't hear the conversation on you know, on air, because
33:45
Speaker 21: I don't. I don't get it unless I have my
33:46
Speaker 21: computer on and then listen to the phone. But I
33:50
Speaker 21: wanted to say, I'm just saying that in general as
33:52
Speaker 21: a nurse because that and the other thing is what
33:56
Speaker 21: what just boggles my mind is is that not that
34:00
Speaker 21: they're affluent because of you know, uh, you know, because
34:05
Speaker 21: of the family having you know, ties to her. You know,
34:09
Speaker 21: the daughter is a broadcaster. But but it just seems
34:12
Speaker 21: like the and it's not trying to be the quarterback,
34:16
Speaker 21: you know, the quarterback. But yeah, it's just it just
34:20
Speaker 21: seems like the security around it and the lighting. I
34:24
Speaker 21: know they have restrictions because it's Tucson. And the other
34:28
Speaker 21: thing too, Joe, is it seems like the more technology
34:33
Speaker 21: we have, the stupid or we get or the less
34:35
Speaker 21: we find and it should be quite the opposite.
34:40
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I guess you're right. We rely on our
34:43
Speaker 4: technology to do more for us. Therefore we feel like
34:49
Speaker 4: but there's also a societal side of it. The more
34:52
Speaker 4: technology becomes a tool, the more we are asked to
34:56
Speaker 4: do with it. So, you know, we have more technolog
35:00
Speaker 4: but I think most of us, would you know, would
35:02
Speaker 4: say our jobs are asking us to do more things
35:06
Speaker 4: than we used to do. So for example, I worked
35:11
Speaker 4: for one two brief periods in New York City. Do
35:15
Speaker 4: you know I can't do anything in a New York
35:17
Speaker 4: City broadcast studio except press the button to pick up
35:20
Speaker 4: the phone line and slide up the slider on my
35:23
Speaker 4: microphone because there are unions that say you can't touch that.
35:28
Speaker 4: But you know, I get outside of the union bubble
35:31
Speaker 4: and you realize how much multitasking anyone, including nursing. I'm
35:35
Speaker 4: sure nursing is to a degree. I don't think you
35:38
Speaker 4: can drag a nurse into doing too much more than
35:40
Speaker 4: they already were. But I'm sure there are things that
35:43
Speaker 4: you have to do that ten years ago you didn't
35:46
Speaker 4: have to do. Is with the advent of new technology.
35:50
Speaker 21: Well, we have restrictions on our licensere what we can do.
35:53
Speaker 21: But I worked at WOWT Channel five in Cincinnati. I
35:57
Speaker 21: was of a degree in communications. But I remember a
36:02
Speaker 21: cable fell off, was a UHF cable and it was
36:06
Speaker 21: a monitor because we had the old, you know, monitor
36:08
Speaker 21: And I grabbed a screwdrivers and screw it in. And
36:11
Speaker 21: this union guy because what are you doing now just
36:14
Speaker 21: to screw that back on the back of the TV
36:16
Speaker 21: with a little clip, you know, the little cable clip.
36:19
Speaker 21: And I got yelled at for that. I didn't even
36:22
Speaker 21: realize that. But it just it just seems like, I mean,
36:26
Speaker 21: her property is big for I'm not picking on people's
36:29
Speaker 21: affluents and all that, but it just seems like that
36:33
Speaker 21: the daughter, Samantha and everybody else around her kind of
36:36
Speaker 21: let oh, let mom's independent, but she wasn't because the
36:40
Speaker 21: way they described her, and she's still driving. It just
36:44
Speaker 21: stories just don't add up.
36:45
Speaker 4: Well, you know, but also you're getting you're getting it
36:47
Speaker 4: third hand. This is why this is a master's class,
36:51
Speaker 4: and why conducting these investigations through the media is a
36:55
Speaker 4: bad idea, because we are only getting what the porter
37:00
Speaker 4: feels like they can fit in the one minute rap
37:03
Speaker 4: that they're given on the six o'clock news. And we
37:08
Speaker 4: were just talking about before and I think we're in
37:10
Speaker 4: the dark window in New Orleans. But there's this huge
37:13
Speaker 4: forensics conference going on down in New Orleans. And somebody
37:16
Speaker 4: was listening to me talking about watching the detectives earlier.
37:21
Speaker 4: But there's this huge forensics conference, and they'll be the
37:23
Speaker 4: first one to tell you that this stuff, you can't
37:26
Speaker 4: take it out of order, you can't take it out
37:28
Speaker 4: of context. And when you only have a minute to
37:31
Speaker 4: do a rap and you try to get a clip
37:33
Speaker 4: of your local sheriff with a comment, there's not a
37:36
Speaker 4: lot of nuance in that. So you have to be
37:38
Speaker 4: careful with how you look at these stories as they progress.
37:43
Speaker 4: And my dear friend Tim Longo, the Charlottesville police chief
37:47
Speaker 4: at the time of the Hanna Graham investigation, would probably
37:49
Speaker 4: be the first one to tell you that's a righteous
37:52
Speaker 4: cop pun intended anyway. Joel you have a great morning, sir.
37:55
Speaker 4: Thank you for hanging on the line with us. Always
37:59
Speaker 4: good stuff.
38:04
Speaker 8: Hi. I'm Mark Falter with the Financial Fitness Show. Have

Speaker 13: Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
39:08
Speaker 13: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
39:13
Speaker 13: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
39:19
Speaker 13: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
39:23
Speaker 13: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
39:27
Speaker 13: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
39:32
Speaker 13: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
Speaker 13: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:42
Speaker 13: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46
Speaker 13: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
39:51
Speaker 13: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

Speaker 2: Hi Jack, Hannah and it's always a boy. Growing up
41:02
Speaker 2: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
41:05
Speaker 2: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
41:07
Speaker 2: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
41:09
Speaker 2: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
41:13
Speaker 2: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
41:15
Speaker 2: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
41:18
Speaker 2: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
41:21
Speaker 2: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
41:23
Speaker 2: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
41:26
Speaker 2: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
41:30
Speaker 2: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
41:33
Speaker 2: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
41:36
Speaker 2: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
41:38
Speaker 2: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
41:41
Speaker 2: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
41:44
Speaker 2: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
41:47
Speaker 2: help those in need. So please join me an American
41:50
Speaker 2: Humane and supporting our heroic working dogs and all the
41:52
Speaker 2: amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together.

42:05
Speaker 23: And now a speech.
42:07
Speaker 18: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
42:11
Speaker 18: heart and brain.
42:12
Speaker 4: Who's with me?
42:13
Speaker 18: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
42:16
Speaker 18: brain is saying when it's time to go home, Somebody
42:18
Speaker 18: call me a ride.
42:20
Speaker 12: Love that guy, me too.
42:21
Speaker 6: Know your buzzed warning signs call for a ride when
42:24

Speaker 17: Did you know that more than half our household energy
42:32
Speaker 17: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
42:36

42:40

Speaker 3: Chalk Radio Just the way your mother used to make it.
44:17
Speaker 3: The first thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Chalk
44:20
Speaker 3: Media Network.
44:23
Speaker 4: So as the government is facing another government shutdown vote,
44:29
Speaker 4: a couple of quick questions came in to me, is
44:32
Speaker 4: will this actually cause a shutdown? Joe or is it
44:36
Speaker 4: just the DHS that's going to be shut down. I
44:39
Speaker 4: can't tell from the coverage. I don't think a lot
44:41
Speaker 4: of the reporters know because the elected officials are playing
44:45
Speaker 4: fast and loose. This text message comes in similar question
44:50
Speaker 4: actually came in last night while we were in Z's land, Joe.
44:55
Speaker 4: It sounds like we had a deal on funding the
44:59
Speaker 4: government all the way through the end of the fiscal
45:01
Speaker 4: year in September, but now they're saying that the government's
45:04
Speaker 4: going to shut down Saturday morning because they can't come
45:07
Speaker 4: to an agreement in the Department of Homeland Security funding.
45:11
Speaker 4: Why isn't it just the Department of Homeland Security shutting down? Parentheses,
45:16
Speaker 4: which I might be fine with. Well, remember ice is
45:20
Speaker 4: you know, going around. But the as best I can
45:27
Speaker 4: ascertain is that this is a poison pill. This is
45:31
Speaker 4: a trigger, This is a detonator that all the stuff
45:35
Speaker 4: that they bloviated about agreeing about. Oh, we've got a
45:38
Speaker 4: deal through September, but we've got this DHS thing, so
45:42
Speaker 4: we're gonna have a two week two weeks it's just
45:48
Speaker 4: a two week moratorium on any of this will keep
45:52
Speaker 4: the government going while we debate a new DHS funding
45:56
Speaker 4: package that will include all these new rule changes to
46:01
Speaker 4: the Department of Homeland Security. Email to JT in the
46:05
Speaker 4: Morning radio at gmail dot com. Louise asks, does the
46:13
Speaker 4: Fourth Amendment apply to non citizens? Oh, that's a good,
46:18
Speaker 4: good question, And the Supreme Court has said, if you're
46:22
Speaker 4: in this country, the Bill of Rights applies to any
46:29
Speaker 4: instances that you might cross its path. So I know,
46:37
Speaker 4: the daisy chain. You would think, well, you're not here legally,
46:40
Speaker 4: so you can't own property legally, you can't rent property legally,
46:43
Speaker 4: so therefore protections against illegal search and sezure might right.
46:48
Speaker 4: And I get how you would go down that path,
46:59
Speaker 4: but it is is cut and dry as that, because
47:03
Speaker 4: the previous jurists read it. Rulings are that the Bill
47:08
Speaker 4: of Rights applies to people who are inside the boundaries
47:10
Speaker 4: of the United States. And that's been a question that
47:15
Speaker 4: has before law enforcement for years because you'll have some
47:21
Speaker 4: drug cartel member come in from Mexico with a tractor
47:28
Speaker 4: trailer full of methanphetamine and then say, oh, hold on
47:34
Speaker 4: to illegal search and seizure your honor. But there are
47:46
Speaker 4: you know, again, back to shut down mania. When you're
47:53
Speaker 4: asking ostensibly for ice to stand down, to stop enforcing
47:57
Speaker 4: immigration law, and we can tie the line bigs into this.
48:00
Speaker 4: This skier, freestyle skier. I used to be a freestyle
48:06
Speaker 4: skier too. I just called it falling a lot. I
48:11
Speaker 4: know you're supposed to stay on your keys.
48:13
Speaker 11: You know.
48:13
Speaker 4: Keystar skiing is not the same as freestyle. But this
48:17
Speaker 4: freestyle skier that the president called a loser because he
48:22
Speaker 4: said I'm not happy with my country. Hey, guess what
48:25
Speaker 4: if somebody came and stole all your ski gear. I
48:28
Speaker 4: bet you'd want a cop to come and investigate who
48:31
Speaker 4: stole it, wouldn't you if somebody stole your car, if
48:40
Speaker 4: somebody invaded your house, if you came home and found
48:44
Speaker 4: came home from Cortina to find that some squatter had
48:50
Speaker 4: moved into your house, And yeah, I don't know if
48:54
Speaker 4: you're in California, Colorado, there's some places where the squatter's
48:58
Speaker 4: laws are crazy, even Florida, who's still trying to struggle
49:02
Speaker 4: with coming to fixes on their squatter's law. Oh but
49:07
Speaker 4: but they're only snowbirds. They weren't there. You know, it's
49:10
Speaker 4: only the house empty because these people respect no private
49:17
Speaker 4: property and they we we can't squeeze them hard enough
49:20
Speaker 4: for them to admit it publicly. Yet there are apparently laws.
49:26
Speaker 4: But believe me, if you got them some sodium pentathol,
49:31
Speaker 4: they would they would fess up the fact that they
49:34
Speaker 4: don't believe you should own property. That's uh. There are
49:37
Speaker 4: some of them. There are some that are arrogant enough
49:40
Speaker 4: in their positions that they will tell you straight up
49:43
Speaker 4: that they don't believe you should own property. That's white supremacy,
49:47
Speaker 4: that's colonialism, that's stealing from the displaced INDIGENI listen to
49:56
Speaker 4: what's her name, Billy Eyelash, I love the best. If
50:01
Speaker 4: you I hope you go to the babylon Bee a lot.
50:04
Speaker 4: If you like this program, you've got to love the
50:06
Speaker 4: babylon Bee because they satirize for your protection as well,
50:13
Speaker 4: and they just there are several new orifices in Billie
50:18
Speaker 4: Eilish after her stupid comments at the Grammys and I'm sorry,
50:22
Speaker 4: I'm not being nice not to a celebrity who's out
50:24
Speaker 4: there saying, yes, they're stolen land. And then the first
50:28
Speaker 4: it didn't take ten minutes before somebody said where her
50:31
Speaker 4: fancily Hollywood Hill? His day was Native American territory. They
50:39
Speaker 4: even have the name of the tribe somewhere that used
50:43
Speaker 4: to inhabit the region where Billie Eyelash's freaking houses. But
50:52
Speaker 4: they get get on TV and they say they're dumb
50:56
Speaker 4: stuff about lawlessness, knowing that they can afford to hire
51:03
Speaker 4: private security to protect themselves while enacting taxes that punish
51:15
Speaker 4: the poorest amongst us in the name of climate you know, homelessness, heartlessness, brainlessness.
51:26
Speaker 4: Maybe that's the only one we don't have a telethon
51:29
Speaker 4: to do anything about. But they are for sure getting
51:39
Speaker 4: the media time. And that's that's intentional, because it's just
51:42
Speaker 4: about you. When you're dealing with even a crazy wild
51:47
Speaker 4: voter turnout of seventy percent, and you just need to
51:53
Speaker 4: get to thirty five point one percent or maybe thirty
51:57
Speaker 4: five point five percent to feel safe about it. You
52:03
Speaker 4: just do four years or two years of unending misrepresentation
52:09
Speaker 4: with celebrities. I like her songs, I like the way
52:14
Speaker 4: he skis, and somehow that becomes public policy. And I
52:19
Speaker 4: know there's a certain amount of well, who are you
52:21
Speaker 4: to say they're wrong? I'm an American citizen. That's who
52:28
Speaker 4: gets to say they're wrong. Well, they picked my last
52:34
Speaker 4: good nerve, or you're dining in dancing pleasure. I'm sorry,
52:39
Speaker 4: I'm just hyped and right ready for flight. Kick the
52:44
