• 1:05
  Speaker 4: one seven. You need to call that cain splaining. It's

• 1:28
  Speaker 4: out there saying this. This is the talking points for
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: this week, and it's and the point I was making
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: was not to slag Republicans. I don't get I'd see
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: no money regardless of who wins or who loses. But
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: until we learn that, that's where you got to meet
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: people where their heart is. And we have better messages.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: We just don't, for some reason, spend enough time thinking
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: about how to say it. Let me get to you
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: before we get our things going on here at four
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: three four eight eight two four two one seven. Good morning.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: You're on the air, first thing this morning with Joe.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Who's this? This is Matt? Good morning, Matt. What's going on?
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: My friend?
• 2:11
  Speaker 7: When I hear sound bites like that one that you
• 2:15
  Speaker 7: displayed with Tim Kaine, I think, is he really that stupid?
• 2:22
  Speaker 7: Or is he really that disingenuous?
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: I'll go b for one hundred Alex.
• 2:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, that's I mean somebody who work for George Sorrows. Yeah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: He can lie to you with the straight face. Well,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: and the thing is, this is the thing. He's not
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: lying per se. These are real things that are happening
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: to real people. What he leaves out is his culpability
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: in creating it all true, you know, And that's the
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: part we need to hold. But but we won't. We
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: won't do it, and and and unfortunately, this is why
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: too many of my friends get caught up in the
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: whole unit party thing, because they see this, they hear this,
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: and then they hear crickets from Republicans and you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: candidates that are more busy talking about you know, sort
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: of the the the the the low hanging fruit of conservatism.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Where are for free markets? Okay, how are you going
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: to do it? Why is that a good thing? What
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: is what is the benefit of free markets? Why is
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: why is school choice good? You know? What is the
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: what is the reason for this? We say school choice,
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: but we don't tell people why it's good. We say
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: lower taxes. We don't say why that's good. We say
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: fewer laws. We don't say why that's good. And that's
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: what Tim Kaine and these Democrats beat us at all
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: the time.
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: Well, and I think part of it is that the
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: Republican Party, through years and years of practice, has convinced
• 4:03
  Speaker 7: itself that it does not want to offend anyone, and
• 4:10
  Speaker 7: they will offend people if they say. You know, that's
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: him Kaine. He's as dumb as a box of rocks.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Or he's lying to you right right, it's oh, you shouldn't.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: You shouldn't be mean like that. Where's the where's the
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: seasoned reason debate gone?
• 4:31
  Speaker 7: This is this, This is the reason that the Republicans,
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: so many of Republicans are never Trumpers, because they look
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: at Trump as the joker.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he'll he I just do things. Uh yeah, and
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: so yeah, and it is you.
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: Know, and I mean, he comes in, he is he
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: is the destructive engine of change truth. And it's I mean,
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: our quote unquote European allies have been taking advantage of
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: us for years. And he points this out. Yeah, and
• 5:18
  Speaker 7: how do the Republicans react? Oh my god, You're going
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: to offend the people in Europe.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: Hey, hang on to that thought there, mag I really know,
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: I need to let people know what went on in
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: the world so that they know what we're all talking about. Here.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: Our first things this morning begins in Europe, where apparently
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: Steve Witkoff has had a successful meeting with Vladimir Putin
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: regarding peace plans there. However, Putin's still talking about protections
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: against the Russians that will remain living in Ukraine. John
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Fetterman says that attacks against Erica Kirk should be stopped.

• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Question for you from Joe Thomas. It's first thing today.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: You know, my brother got excoriated for writing this song,
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: and this great song, especially for somebody who's maintained a
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: thirty plus year marriage on barely more than the idea.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: And the leftists that wanted him canceled for writing a
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: song about being able to survive on minimum wage were
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: the ones who established the minimum wage. But nobody ever
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: wants to bring this up. And Matt was making the
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: point when we had to run to break that. You know,
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: it is out of fear of being seen as mean
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: spirited and and uncaring. I think, Matt was what you
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: were saying is why Republicans, for the most part, get
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: out of this. There are those who would take a
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: contrary view, is that they're just in on the game
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: and they're playing the bad guy the same way the
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Undertaker would play the bad guy when he climbed into
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: the squared circle against Dwayne Johnson the Rock. So, you know,
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: is there a certain amount of you know, you know,
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Uni Party going on or is it truly that Republicans
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: just aren't smart enough to understand that we have good
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: messages too, and we just need to speak them.
• 14:41
  Speaker 7: It's I think they understand. I think they understand the
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: messages that the conservatives have. But just because they're Republican
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: doesn't mean they're conservative, and part part of their contribution
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: to the UNI Party is to not point these things out. Now,
• 15:09
  Speaker 7: I mean, we still have all sorts of bipartisan activity
• 15:17
  Speaker 7: in Washington. As soon as this congresswoman proposed to bill
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: saying hey, let's stop insider trading among congressmen, then all
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: of a sudden you had bipartisan action. Both Jeffries, both
• 15:32
  Speaker 7: Jefferies and Johnson's screamed grenade, evacuate the building, you.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: Know, and I love this issue. This is like walking
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: around with a sick chicken under your arm because it's
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: so obviously a winner, and yet nobody wants to do it.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: And then they say, well, why do you all think
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: we're corrupt? Oh, I don't know. It's gonna be when
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: you when we give you a chance, and yes, are
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: the devil in the details? Is page three hundred and
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: forty eight on some bill that would do this potentially
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: the problem absolutely? Then say so, say that page three
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: hundred and twenty eight contains a proviso that says that
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: you know, I don't know. I can't even off the
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: top of my head to think of something that would
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: be in this you know. Uh, maybe they they make
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: it anything for ten years before or ten years after
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: you run for office, or some poison pill, you know
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: what I'm talking about. There's some some provision in there
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: that would render it something that nobody would ever want
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: to pass. And that, to me is part of the problem.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: Is we have these six seven, two thousand page bills
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: that are full of cross references and other things that
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: have no germanenans to the law in general. But if
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: you vote against it, Oh well, Kyris, Woman Luna voted
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: against a baby formula for poor kids. Where was that?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: That was page seven and twenty eight on your no
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: insider Trading law? Oh crap.
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: So I mean this is this is the problem you
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: get into in that you get these bills that are
• 17:27
  Speaker 7: just absolute Christmas trees and everybody's hung their great shiny
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: ornament on it, and so you will have somebody who
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: will be looking at a bill. They had a bill
• 17:41
  Speaker 7: several years ago that was supposed to be relief or
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: Superstorm Sandy up in New York. And if you read
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: the bill, it's got like five million dollars worth of
• 17:54
  Speaker 7: relief for Superstorm Sandy.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: But the bill.
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: Itself is around sixty five minion because everybody stuck all
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: these different ornaments on it. But it's still called, you know,
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: relief for Superstorm Sandy. So somebody like a Rand Paul
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: sees this and says this is ridiculous and.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: Votes against it.
• 18:15
  Speaker 7: Well, now Rand Paul is voted against relief for storm victims.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: Yep, exactly. And this is this is the game they play.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: And I think this is why they all pox on
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: both their houses. We watched this. Why why the very
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: existence of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act? I
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: forget and I remember I used to have it somewhere.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: It may be in the office. I'm not allowed to
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: go into or mention anymore. But I had the original
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: bill that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: amended to. But it was something about veteran services. I'm
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: pretty sure I'm remembering this part clearly. It was something
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: about veteran services that it didn't even have anything to
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: do with health care for vetter, and so it had
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: to do with like the availability of office hours or
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: something like that. And they said, hey, this is already
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: passed and it's waiting to go, you know, to the
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: Senate or whatever, so we can use deem and pass,
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: meaning that we've already passed this bill. We've just amended
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: something to it. So all we have to do is
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: vote that we all, or at least enough of us,
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: agree to accept this amendment as already having passed. And
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: they stapled the Affordable Care Act to something that had
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: already passed. You know. Tom Perriello voted the tie breaking
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: vote to approve that measure, and now we have the
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act and it's such a great example of
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: all that is wrong in Washington.
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it was. It was a complete Rube
• 19:51
  Speaker 7: Goldberg machine of slimy politics.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: Right, and we're still suffering for it. And Tim Kaine
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: can go out there and say healthcare CA so skyrocket,
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: and really, Tim, can you want to sit down and why?
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: And that's my question about the messaging. Why when three
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: quarters minimum three quarters of Americans are eighty percent in
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: agreement with you and me on conservative principles, why are
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Republicans afraid to weigh in on it? Because it's a
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: winning agenda item. If you get those, you'll never lose
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: another election.
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: Part of the difficulty here is that Tim Kaine, who
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: has no conscience, can come out and say food prices
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: are too high and leave it at that with the
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: impression that well, it's all Trump's fall. But on the
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: Republican side, to counter that, they need to explain about inflation.
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: They need to explain that the value of the dollar
• 20:54
  Speaker 7: is dropping.
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: And fertilizer costs of quadrupled in thea you know, and
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: here's here's you know, you know what it is. And
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: we only have a minute here, Matt, But you know
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: what it is it's it's my fault. And and by
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: my fault, I mean talk radio's fault. I think Republicans
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: who seek office have figured, you know what, the conservative
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: talk show host will will carry the water for explaining it.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: And I can just go out there and say, I'm,
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: you know, for the troops, and I'm for you know, uh,
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: school choice or whatever, and the conservative talk show hosts
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: will fill in the blanks for me. And and that's
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: where we're losing. The Democrats don't have that part.
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: And part of that is that the Republican office holder
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: will think to himself, you know, if I explain inflation,
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: if I tell people what's really going on here, all
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: of my colleagues will be mad at me, and they
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: won't invite me to their.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Let's see, if something costs less but people are happier
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: with it, that sounds like something to look into. And
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: that is meta share. Maybe you've heard switching to meta
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: share to pay for healthcare can save many families up
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: to five hundred bucks a month, and that is huge,
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: after making the switch too. The members satisfaction rate for
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: meta share is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Double Meta Share works too. It's been around for thirty years.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Members have shared more than five billion dollars of each
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: other's bills. People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: PPO network. So yeah, really you can save a ton
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: and like it better. Imagine being happy with how you're
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: taking care of your healthcare. So if you're self employed

• 28:33
  Speaker 28: We need a sound effect of a notebook opening. I
• 28:35
  Speaker 28: don't know what that would sound like. That would add
• 28:39
  Speaker 28: some radio pinas you know, to.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: What we do. Everything really loud. It have to be
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: one of those one of those old spiral notebooks that
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: you know, clicked and clapped.
• 28:51
  Speaker 28: I don't know it would be all right, Well, Pete
• 28:52
  Speaker 28: Alonzo is headed to Baltimore. The oriole brass is putting
• 28:56
  Speaker 28: the final touches on the paperwork for the former Mets.
• 28:59
  Speaker 28: For basement, Alonzo inked a five year, one hundred and
• 29:03
  Speaker 28: fifty five million dollar deal with the Birds.
• 29:06
  Speaker 9: Felt like a player who knew he was gone.
• 29:08
  Speaker 28: And the immediate aftermath of the Mets missing the postseason,
• 29:11
  Speaker 28: after collapsing from being the best team in baseball that
• 29:15
  Speaker 28: was mid June, right well, Alonso announced his intentions to
• 29:18
  Speaker 28: opt out. At that time, he was seeking long term
• 29:22
  Speaker 28: he found it in Baltimore. The Mets didn't offer Alonzo
• 29:25
  Speaker 28: a contracts, as they felt his market value had finally
• 29:28
  Speaker 28: exceeded what they were comfortable in giving him. Can you
• 29:32
  Speaker 28: imagine if the Oils would have gotten Schwarber? I know, Schwarber,
• 29:35
  Speaker 28: you know it goes to Philly. Can you imagine that
• 29:37
  Speaker 28: with Schwarber and Alonzo?
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: Look got anyway.
• 29:40
  Speaker 28: Keith Hernandez, the analyst for the you know, former met
• 29:45
  Speaker 28: an analysts now for their network, was he was a
• 29:49
  Speaker 28: little disillusioned.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: I was surprised.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: I guess.
• 29:54
  Speaker 29: My feeling is that the Mets didn't want to give
• 29:56
  Speaker 29: him the five years in Baltimore certainly did, and I'm
• 30:00
  Speaker 29: sure there was other teams that were willing to do it.
• 30:03
  Speaker 29: You know, It's sad to see Pete go. I mean,
• 30:06
  Speaker 29: I've always loved Pete because Pete cared, He came every
• 30:09
  Speaker 29: day but never got hurt.
• 30:11
  Speaker 28: Yeah, and then just you know, did his thing. So anyway,
• 30:14
  Speaker 28: he had a pretty good year and the Orioles got
• 30:15
  Speaker 28: a good one. You know what I've known ever since
• 30:18
  Speaker 28: I'd gotten this business in Shenando, Iowa in nineteen seventy five.
• 30:23
  Speaker 9: Found I found a real love for the guys.
• 30:26
  Speaker 28: Who official, you know, officiate more time, football, basketball guys
• 30:31
  Speaker 28: even you know, at the high school level, and they're
• 30:33
  Speaker 28: doing more time.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: And then of course the college guys.
• 30:35
  Speaker 28: And Tom Zamorski, who passed away a couple of years ago,
• 30:38
  Speaker 28: one of my faves. We would always talk about, you know,
• 30:41
  Speaker 28: different stories and different things, but I always knew and
• 30:44
  Speaker 28: I did find out in a room full of officials, which
• 30:47
  Speaker 28: I was on a couple of occasions, or in a foursome,
• 30:51
  Speaker 28: you know, as Tom would bring in, is that their
• 30:53
  Speaker 28: egos are through the roof okay, and I tell you
• 30:56
  Speaker 28: that to tell you this, Hey, Terry McCauley, shut the
• 30:59
  Speaker 28: hell up. Ok the retired NFL guy who officiated in
• 31:02
  Speaker 28: the NFL two decades or whatever. He went to social
• 31:06
  Speaker 28: media and criticized the ACC's command center for going through
• 31:10
  Speaker 28: the replay so we can hear it. I think that's
• 31:13
  Speaker 28: one of the best things since the NASCAR people start
• 31:16
  Speaker 28: talking to guys in cars, I mean the command center.
• 31:20
  Speaker 9: But here's what he said. Here's the quote.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: He goes.
• 31:23
  Speaker 28: The command center concept was added to the rule book
• 31:26
  Speaker 28: to provide collaborative replay so that multiple people can have
• 31:29
  Speaker 28: input to what are often very complex situations. The ACC
• 31:34
  Speaker 28: so called transparency process makes a mockery of that. It's
• 31:38
  Speaker 28: simply one person doing a quick cursory review with little
• 31:43
  Speaker 28: or no dialogue with a replay official or referee.
• 31:47
  Speaker 9: He asks everybody, you know, He goes, Hey, is everyone
• 31:49
  Speaker 9: in agreement?
• 31:51
  Speaker 28: They always say that, and amazingly everyone is always in agreement,
• 31:55
  Speaker 28: which seems to be the extent of the calibra. You know,
• 31:58
  Speaker 28: but I've heard those guys say no, can we watch
• 32:00
  Speaker 28: it one more time? So anyway, hey mccaulleyue, shut the
• 32:04
  Speaker 28: hell up. Let us enjoy the games.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 32:06
  Speaker 28: It's like now we're talking to golfers on the course,
• 32:09
  Speaker 28: you know, as they're walking from t shot to the
• 32:11
  Speaker 28: you know, to the through the fairway.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's it's what we want. It's because
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: the the TV networks have to try to pander to us.
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: So it's not good.
• 32:23
  Speaker 28: But you got to have numbers, you gotta, you know,
• 32:26
  Speaker 28: And nobody doesn't like NASCAR.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Nascar is the best they get.
• 32:29
  Speaker 9: They get access everywhere.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Till Kyle until you get Kyle Busch spun out at
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: the end of a race and you go out. That's true.
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: You have to you gotta be killing you certainly, all right.
• 32:42
  Speaker 28: Well, Billy Napier understands college football and the group of
• 32:47
  Speaker 28: six and he even talked about it yesterday at the
• 32:49
  Speaker 28: press conference. He was at the presser yesterday, and Jamie,
• 32:52
  Speaker 28: you got a very warm reception in Harrisonburg. As a
• 32:54
  Speaker 28: former QB at Furman, he did the dance. As an
• 32:57
  Speaker 28: assistant at Clemson, Alabama, Colorado State, Arizona State, he became
• 33:01
  Speaker 28: the head coach with the Raging Cajuns in Lafayette.
• 33:04
  Speaker 9: With Louisiana, he went forty and twelve twenty.
• 33:07
  Speaker 28: Seven and five in the Sun Belt and everybody thought,
• 33:11
  Speaker 28: now this guy can coach well. In November of twenty one,
• 33:14
  Speaker 28: he was named the twenty eighth head coach at Florida.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: He replaced Dan Mullen.
• 33:18
  Speaker 28: At the time four years twenty two and twenty three
• 33:22
  Speaker 28: oops twelve and sixteen in the SEC, and the Swamp
• 33:26
  Speaker 28: people are not you know, they don't stand for this
• 33:28
  Speaker 28: very long. He did go eight and five in twenty
• 33:31
  Speaker 28: twenty four, but he went just four and four in
• 33:33
  Speaker 28: the league that year, So of course he feels a
• 33:38
  Speaker 28: warmth now in Harrisonburg.
• 33:40
  Speaker 30: It was very evident the more research that we did,
• 33:42
  Speaker 30: this was an incredible opportunity at a prestigious university and
• 33:47
  Speaker 30: in my opinion, the top group of six football program
• 33:50
  Speaker 30: in the entire country. Dan, there's a mindset, there's an
• 33:59
  Speaker 30: expectation to win. There's a confidence in that group. You
• 34:02
  Speaker 30: could just be in the room with the players today
• 34:06
  Speaker 30: and you could see that in their eyes.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: Look in their eyes.
• 34:09
  Speaker 28: The guys will know and half of them want him
• 34:10
  Speaker 28: be in the locker room by the time he turns
• 34:13
  Speaker 28: in a month or so to get ready for spring practice.
• 34:16
  Speaker 28: So is there any story worse than the Michigan football
• 34:22
  Speaker 28: coach Sharon vo who was fired yesterday. Now he's in
• 34:26
  Speaker 28: an investigation and it was conduct and inappropriate relationship with
• 34:29
  Speaker 28: the staff member. And then a few hours later went
• 34:32
  Speaker 28: into custody after police and Seleen Michigan responded to.
• 34:36
  Speaker 9: An alleged assault. This is not pretty, okay.
• 34:39
  Speaker 28: The thirty nine year old spent two seasons as Michigan's
• 34:42
  Speaker 28: coach after serving his offensive coordinator, and it seemed that
• 34:46
  Speaker 28: Michigan people liked him.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: But you know, after all, it just can we just
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: go back to stealing signs? I mean, it was life
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: was so much simple.
• 34:54
  Speaker 28: When sports was simple as just.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: You know, you know, guys, guys holding up an orange placard.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: It must be a run. You know. I don't know
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: these did you say?
• 35:09
  Speaker 28: And I don't know if you saw it, but the
• 35:10
  Speaker 28: Stuart Scott documentary about an hour and a half was
• 35:14
  Speaker 28: very very good.
• 35:15
  Speaker 9: I I never met Stuart.
• 35:17
  Speaker 28: Scott, I always felt and you know, he worked in
• 35:21
  Speaker 28: Orlando for a while and my current boss, I just
• 35:23
  Speaker 28: said this the other day, My current boss was in
• 35:26
  Speaker 28: Orlando with him. And then once Stuart got the ESPN,
• 35:30
  Speaker 28: he brought Gus with him. Gus Ramsey and uh uh
• 35:34
  Speaker 28: but the squirre and and Gus was in the documentary
• 35:37
  Speaker 28: last night in the thirty for thirty. I always felt
• 35:39
  Speaker 28: that Stuart Scott was was more about him really than
• 35:42
  Speaker 28: the product and ESPN or whatever.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: He wanted to create. The language boo.
• 35:46
  Speaker 28: Yah, cold is the other side of the pillow, all
• 35:50
  Speaker 28: the you know, trying to do all the cutesy stuff.
• 35:52
  Speaker 28: But he he was trying to do it with ESPN
• 35:54
  Speaker 28: two before and then he got picked up and he
• 35:58
  Speaker 28: had to kind of change his ways the way he
• 36:00
  Speaker 28: asked away everything. But he elevated himself to Sports Center.
• 36:03
  Speaker 31: Uh.
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: He was doing a lot of NFL stuff.
• 36:05
  Speaker 28: He had a lot of you know, Tiger Woods and
• 36:08
  Speaker 28: Shack and a lot of people really loved Stuart. And
• 36:10
  Speaker 28: if you didn't see it last night, and you can
• 36:13
  Speaker 28: stream it, but it's a it's a he battled cancer
• 36:17
  Speaker 28: for seven years and it was a it was a
• 36:20
  Speaker 28: weird it was a cancer of the appendix.
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: You know, he was working in.
• 36:24
  Speaker 28: An NFL game and got sick and so he just
• 36:27
  Speaker 28: and he deteriorated and it just was one of those
• 36:30
  Speaker 28: things where his quality of life the last couple of
• 36:32
  Speaker 28: years was just you know it was hard. He had
• 36:34
  Speaker 28: he had already gotten divorced from his wife that fathered
• 36:37
  Speaker 28: his two girls. The two girls were special. They're featured
• 36:40
  Speaker 28: in the commentary in the documentary, and uh, it is
• 36:44
  Speaker 28: really I mean it's a it's a good piece on
• 36:46
  Speaker 28: a guy that that meant a lot.
• 36:48
  Speaker 9: Of course his you know, his speech and he was fighting.
• 36:50
  Speaker 28: For every uh and you and I, you know, we've
• 36:53
  Speaker 28: been down that that c road and it's, uh, it's
• 36:56
  Speaker 28: never fun, but it's got its it's got its moment wins,
• 37:00
  Speaker 28: and I think shows the side of Stuart's got that
• 37:02
  Speaker 28: you know, you've got to appreciate, especially a guy who
• 37:04
  Speaker 28: battles cancer like that.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: For so he was. He was rare in sports to me, Dan,
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: you're the Dan Patrick school sports guys and you you
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: and you and a lot of folks connect, but you know,
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: there are still those folks who just don't connect that,
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: you know, And and I always felt, you know, maybe
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: I don't want to argue with you, but Stuart Stewart
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: was was better at connecting and and I think that
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: he did.
• 37:32
  Speaker 28: He connected to the audience for sure, more than the players. Exactly,
• 37:37
  Speaker 28: absolutely he did. But you know, it just it looked
• 37:40
  Speaker 28: like sometimes it felt to me, and I talked to
• 37:43
  Speaker 28: a couple of other people that he felt it was
• 37:46
  Speaker 28: all about him, and I shouldn't be, you know, kicking
• 37:48
  Speaker 28: dirt on a guy who finds.
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: Out you know, I don't at some point. But it's
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: well worth the watch. It's well worth the watch. So
• 37:55

  Speaker 17: its risk factors. Efforts led by the American Heart Association

  Speaker 4: One text message. On our conversation with Matt about messaging
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: and how you know, as disingenuous as Tim Kane and
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: his ilk are, we have to learn how to your relearn,
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: I guess is really the point here. You're spot on.
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: Republicans need to remember how Ronald Reagan was such an
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: effective communicator. He noodled out big ideas and could explain
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: them in short speeches or expand on them at length
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: if questioned. If given the opportunity this one, all politicians,
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: both Democrat and Republican, run every decision through the calculus
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: of re election. Democrats are worse, of course, well they
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: but they're better. They're better. They're not worse. They're better
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: at saying well, I will say people are struggling, and
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: immediately people presume that while he gets it at least,
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: and we assume that that means they're going to do
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: something about it. And you're right about Reagan's point. We've
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: lost this ability to take the obvious and this last email,
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: and we've got folks on the phone as well, Joe,
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: what's your basis of this? Eighty percent of us all
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: agree on conservative principles. I'm looking at election results and
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: I'm not seeing that. Well, I wasn't talking about election results.
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: I was talking about that. If you go person to person,
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: if you take all three hundred million some odd Americans
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: and you ask them a list of one hundred things
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: that they think are important and how they should be handled,
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: we you, me, and they would all agree on what
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: those things are and the best way forward with them
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: and the best way that life should be led. That's Americanism.
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: That's conservatism, that's liberty, that's free markets. That's why bodies
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: like the US House of Representatives have twenty percent of
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: approval rating, because most of us see what they're doing
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: and realize that that is not how we're supposed to
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: be operating. So I'm not talking about election results. I'm
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: talking about in general. I wish we could get the
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: election results that showed how essentially conservative we all are.
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: And yeah, we can talk abortion, we can talk about welfare,
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: we can talk about all of those things and find
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: some position that we can all be happy with. As
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: I've said, I don't want the government involved in abortion
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: at all. I want to end it the old fashioned way,
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: the way Jesus did, by convincing people that there is
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: no such thing as an unwanted pregnancy. You wanted something,
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: But anyway, let me get to Clark, who's hanging on
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: line with us at four three four eight eight two
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: four two one seven on this Thursday morning. Good morning, Clark,
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: what's on your mind? Sir?
• 47:31
  Speaker 31: Well, let's tie everything we just heard up and put
• 47:35
  Speaker 31: a bow on it. So, Matt pose the question is
• 47:38
  Speaker 31: Tim Kaine. That's statemid and reference to statements.
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: That he made.
• 47:42
  Speaker 31: And the answer to short answer to that, Joe is no.
• 47:45
  Speaker 31: But he thinks his intendance audience is that stupid. Now,
• 47:50
  Speaker 31: you pointed out the left never stops messaging. It's a
• 47:54
  Speaker 31: constant stream of lies. But it's constant Joe. Republicans eldom
• 48:00
  Speaker 31: of every message they don't now rush termed the coin
• 48:05
  Speaker 31: low information voter, and make no mistake, there's lots of those,
• 48:09
  Speaker 31: but through total or near total control of the mainstream media,
• 48:13
  Speaker 31: the left has created disinformed voters. Now, Donald Trump cannon
• 48:20
  Speaker 31: does message, but as Matt pointed out, he's a disruptive
• 48:25
  Speaker 31: agent of change, and as such, the establishment of Republicans
• 48:30
  Speaker 31: don't embrace him now.
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: Much in the same way, much much in the same
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: way they didn't embrace Reagan either, because they realized after
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: all those years going to the right you know, college
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: and getting into the right fraternity has left them bereft
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: of being able to actually communicate with regular people. And
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: that's that's the and that's why they dislike them so much. Anyway,
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. I just thought
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: that was a finery.
• 48:55
  Speaker 31: They paid him to live the service when it was necessary.
• 48:59
  Speaker 31: Now you had the message. They run all things, both
• 49:05
  Speaker 31: Republicans anywhere goes run all issues to the calculus of reelection.
• 49:09
  Speaker 31: They do now. When we hear Maxine Waters say the
• 49:14
  Speaker 31: things she says, when we hear AOC say the things
• 49:18
  Speaker 31: she says, when we hear Tim Kaine, when we hear
• 49:21
  Speaker 31: Gavin Newsom, we think these statements are idiotic. But Joe,
• 49:27
  Speaker 31: those people keep getting re elected, and they get re
• 49:31
  Speaker 31: elected in sufficient numbers to implement their ideas. It's working.
• 49:36
  Speaker 31: They're not stupid, Oh yeah, nosingenuous. Yes, they might be
• 49:44
  Speaker 31: selling stupid ideas, but they're succeeding and selling them. And
• 49:49
  Speaker 31: I think as long as we on the right just
• 49:53
  Speaker 31: dismiss this as well, they're just stupid, we're going to
• 49:57
  Speaker 31: keep losing.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: Well. Part of it, I think is also and I'm
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: curious your thought of my revelation, my epiphany that I
• 50:06
  Speaker 4: think Republicans count on people like me to do the
• 50:10
  Speaker 4: dirty work in their messaging, but they don't want to
• 50:13
  Speaker 4: do the work of figuring out who the voter is.
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: They've got their message, we need more military spending, so
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: they try to find somebody to make a message that
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: says that, rather than saying what is it that's meaning
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: something to Virginians or Californians or Americans writ large. Instead
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: of spending the time and doing the market research, they
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: just come in and say, I like Christian contemporary music,
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: so damn it, I'm going to put a Christian contemporary
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: music station on because I like that music. And then
• 50:49
  Speaker 4: two years later they say, gosh, I don't know why
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: nobody's listening this. It's great music because nobody in the
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: marketplace wanted it, and we're probably not even told why
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: it was good to listen to anyway. They were just old,
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: it's here, come and get it. And that's our problem
• 51:05
  Speaker 4: with messaging is we don't take into account the customer first,
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: the voter, and what they're going through. So when Tim
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: Kaine makes that ridiculous prattle about well they're suffering through
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: all these things, and I go step by step through
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: it and say, this is but this is wrong. And
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: you know, the healthcare is expensive because of Affordable Care Act,
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: the groceries are expensive because of the fertilizer cost and
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: your Green New deal. So are the housing. You know,
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: the home building supplies and all these things are directly
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: dragged back to policies you've enacted. Nobody does that, and
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: the news media certainly isn't going to ask him when
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: he says stuff like that, because they're just sitting there
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: there saying, hey, I got a great quote for the
