Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Welcome to a meeting of the minds crafted from decades
- 0:05Speaker 1: of talk show experience, an extension of the magic they've
- 0:09Speaker 1: created together on radio in the phenomenon called M and M,
- 0:13Speaker 1: Hot Topics in the News and Wisdom from Light. It's
- 0:17Speaker 1: Mark Davis and Mike Gallagher. This is eminem Extra.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Happy Friday. We somehow made it through the week. It
- 0:28Speaker 2: is a week for us that has been played with
- 0:30Speaker 2: technical difficulties. They used to put the color bars up
- 0:34Speaker 2: on TV. Mark remember that, Yes, say we're having technical difficulties.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Stand by. We've been doing a lot of standing by
- 0:40Speaker 2: this week. It's been one thing after another, and we
- 0:42Speaker 2: do apologize. Look, we're you know, we're like, we're growing,
- 0:46Speaker 2: we're building, we're new.
- 0:48Speaker 3: It's growing page. We've only been at this since, you know,
- 0:50Speaker 3: it's a couple of months. We're a couple of months in.
- 0:52Speaker 3: You know, give us some flat.
- 0:54Speaker 2: It's been a bad week, been a bad week, and
- 0:56Speaker 2: we're sorry. And some of it has been human error,
- 0:59Speaker 2: some of it has been unexplainable technical errors, and it's
- 1:02Speaker 2: just one of those things. The stars have not been
- 1:05Speaker 2: in alignment. But we're here. It's a Friday. We got
- 1:08Speaker 2: a lot to cover. Here on a on an M
- 1:11Speaker 2: and M X where we thank you for tuning in
- 1:13Speaker 2: on YouTube or apples, spotify wherever you may be. Some
- 1:19Speaker 2: breaking news by the way that we and this is
- 1:20Speaker 2: what I love about being able to uh uh to
- 1:23Speaker 2: do this thing, uh you know, on a whim. The
- 1:27Speaker 2: judge overseeing the case against Charlie Kirk's accused killer thing Yep,
- 1:34Speaker 2: he decided to keep the death penalty on the table
- 1:37Speaker 2: as a potential punishment.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Where it would have been no argument whatsoever for removing it.
- 1:42Speaker 3: If if, if, if this guy doesn't get the death penalty,
- 1:45Speaker 3: let's do away with the death penal.
- 1:47Speaker 2: And mark Utah. We ain't talking about, you know, Berkeley, California.
- 1:51Speaker 2: This is in Utah. So and one of these days
- 1:55Speaker 2: you and I've got to devote some time on our
- 1:57Speaker 2: M and M Extra podcast to the Charlie and Erica
- 2:01Speaker 2: Kirk phenomenon. I got into it last week with a
- 2:05Speaker 2: family member. I don't want to embarrass him, I don't
- 2:08Speaker 2: want to berate him publicly in any way. But he
- 2:12Speaker 2: went off on how much he despises Erica Kirk. Erica Kirk,
- 2:18Speaker 2: how do you feel about Charlie?
- 2:20Speaker 1: Oh?
- 2:20Speaker 2: Hated him? Of course? But seems to hate her even worse.
- 2:25Speaker 2: And I think, and I said, this is a grieving
- 2:28Speaker 2: widow who's now raising two kids by herself. Oh you
- 2:32Speaker 2: think she's raising those kids. There's a narrative mark that
- 2:37Speaker 2: has emerged about Erica. Look, he's not alone, He's all
- 2:40Speaker 2: he's doing is echoing social media. It's all over and
- 2:44Speaker 2: you've seen it. I mean, it's not like this.
- 2:48Speaker 3: The reason I asked, the reason I asked, how did
- 2:50Speaker 3: he feel about Charlie? Is there some people who were
- 2:52Speaker 3: totally on board for Charlie, loved Charlie, and in an
- 2:55Speaker 3: odd way, their devotion to Charlie is something that has
- 2:59Speaker 3: turned weird and soured and turned into some hostility toward Erica,
- 3:04Speaker 3: like she's an unfit standard bearer for the man Fold.
- 3:08Speaker 3: There there's all kinds of weirdness and I just don't
- 3:11Speaker 3: get any of it, no matter where it comes from.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Well I don't. I wish I tried, and I tried,
- 3:16Speaker 2: and I love my kids and I'm not again trying
- 3:19Speaker 2: to embarrass him, but I tried to understand where are
- 3:21Speaker 2: you coming from? What are you talking about? I mean,
- 3:24Speaker 2: I get that you didn't agree with Charlie's politics. Hey, kid,
- 3:28Speaker 2: they killed him, Okay, so don't have to worry about
- 3:30Speaker 2: him anymore. You know you're the people like you that
- 3:33Speaker 2: didn't like him. One of them killed him. So what
- 3:36Speaker 2: more do you want to do to him? Well? I
- 3:38Speaker 2: guess And when you say that, Mark, and I know
- 3:41Speaker 2: it sounds morbid. What more do you want to do?
- 3:43Speaker 3: Well? I gadge the widow.
- 3:44Speaker 2: I guess, savage the widow. That's what's left. Now let's
- 3:47Speaker 2: go after Erica. Now you are right, I've actually talked.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Are you ready for this? I'm kind of glad we're
- 3:53Speaker 2: getting into this today? Why not now? With this breaking news?
- 3:56Speaker 3: We need to do this someday? How about now, let's
- 3:58Speaker 3: do it today?
- 3:59Speaker 2: Why not? The judge in the in the Charlie Kirk
- 4:03Speaker 2: alleged killer case has left the death penalty on the table.
- 4:06Speaker 2: That's breaking today. I have had conversations with three different women,
- 4:13Speaker 2: women of a certain age meaning our age right or
- 4:16Speaker 2: in our demographic, conservative women, fans of Charlie Kirk, one
- 4:23Speaker 2: of them a donor to Turning Point USA. Okay, three
- 4:27Speaker 2: separate women, and I would describe each one of them
- 4:30Speaker 2: as lovely women, charitable women, god fearing women, conservative Republicans.
- 4:38Speaker 2: They loathe her. They think she's a gold digger, an opportunist,
- 4:45Speaker 2: they think she's a phony. And Mark, I have these
- 4:50Speaker 2: conversations and I'm staring at the phone, thinking, am I
- 4:53Speaker 2: losing my mind? Here? Have you? Have you met any
- 4:57Speaker 2: of these people that are not These aren't the peace people,
- 5:00Speaker 2: the typical lefties like sadly one of my kids who
- 5:03Speaker 2: hated Charlie and hates conservatism and all that. We're talking
- 5:06Speaker 2: about conservative women who loved what Charlie was all about,
- 5:12Speaker 2: and they just hate Erica. What the hell, Mark, what
- 5:18Speaker 2: the wanst to be something exactly? So the answer to
- 5:21Speaker 2: your question is no, I haven't had a lot of
- 5:23Speaker 2: direct conversation. I'm just sort of become aware of it
- 5:26Speaker 2: through one or two degrees of separation. And here's another
- 5:28Speaker 2: one where somebody has told me about that attitude. So
- 5:31Speaker 2: I'm aware of that attitude and maybe it is okay, okay,
- 5:36Speaker 2: this is really going to be a bit of a jump.
- 5:40Speaker 2: For many women. Charlie was the son they wish they had.
- 5:46Speaker 2: There is a protectiveness around him, just a nice thirty
- 5:51Speaker 2: year old young man, so conservative, so upstanding, so wonderful,
- 5:55Speaker 2: and one of the things they probably loved about him
- 5:57Speaker 2: was his devotion to his wife and his family. But
- 6:01Speaker 2: with him violently wiped from the scene and she all
- 6:05Speaker 2: of a sudden assumes that mantle and becomes the face
- 6:09Speaker 2: and voice of the movement, It's like there's something horribly
- 6:12Speaker 2: wrong about that. I don't know if there's something traditional
- 6:16Speaker 2: and nonfeminist about that, or something that's that's like, you know,
- 6:20Speaker 2: sort of trad wife tantrum, where it's just something that
- 6:24Speaker 2: you know, it's just not fitting for the little lady
- 6:26Speaker 2: to be doing that, or they just don't want anybody.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Maybe they don't want anybody to succeed him in this movement.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Maybe it was just so much about him him that
- 6:36Speaker 2: they care more about him and this devotion to him
- 6:40Speaker 2: than they do about their devotion to Turning Point or
- 6:43Speaker 2: his vital work. That's really smart analysis. I think you
- 6:47Speaker 2: could be right. Maybe it's and maybe it is driven
- 6:49Speaker 2: by the sort of the mother hen nature of some
- 6:53Speaker 2: of these women who just feel like, you know, I
- 6:56Speaker 2: don't know, maybe they didn't approve of Erica. I don't know.
- 6:59Speaker 2: And look, can we stipulate. I always want to look
- 7:02Speaker 2: at every side of an issue. I always look at
- 7:04Speaker 2: I always want to be fair, and I believe that
- 7:07Speaker 2: maybe there'll be a portion of our audience right now
- 7:10Speaker 2: who maybe understands it, and maybe this is why there
- 7:14Speaker 2: have been some there have been some weird moments. The
- 7:18Speaker 2: video of Erica over her his body in the casket.
- 7:22Speaker 3: Did you see that video? I don't know that I did.
- 7:25Speaker 3: What's that?
- 7:26Speaker 2: All right? Let me tell you what that is? They
- 7:30Speaker 2: she released a video of Charlie in the casket and
- 7:35Speaker 2: she is weeping over his body and like kissing his hand,
- 7:43Speaker 2: and somebody took a video of that. I'm sure I got,
- 7:47Speaker 2: and people would say it her direction and posted that
- 7:51Speaker 2: video on social media. And look, I lost my wife too,
- 7:56Speaker 2: I lost a spouse. There's nothing easy about any of
- 7:59Speaker 2: that process, says and I hate to even think about
- 8:02Speaker 2: judging her. But as I explain this to you, does
- 8:05Speaker 2: that sound a little weird to you?
- 8:10Speaker 3: Okay? What open casket? Or no?
- 8:12Speaker 2: What opens? Kissing his hand and his hands? Like sorry, okay,
- 8:17Speaker 2: so open question.
- 8:18Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's a little invasive, it's a little
- 8:22Speaker 4: out there. But but is it within the overton window
- 8:26Speaker 4: of things that I that that I don't think I
- 8:28Speaker 4: would have recoiled at that at all.
- 8:31Speaker 3: And you know, I mean just I guess when you
- 8:35Speaker 3: phrase it as okay, okay at her, at her direction,
- 8:40Speaker 3: if it just happens to be something that somebody takes
- 8:43Speaker 3: and then they post it, that's one thing. If it's like, hey,
- 8:46Speaker 3: then it seems kind it's my word of the ear,
- 8:48Speaker 3: then it might seem a little performative, which.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Well that's the word. And when you say invasive, how
- 8:54Speaker 2: can it be invasive when Erica obviously you know, agree
- 8:58Speaker 2: to it. And again I hate because I think the
- 9:00Speaker 2: hatred that's been directed to Erica is demonic. I mean,
- 9:05Speaker 2: she's being threatened, her kids are being threatened. And again
- 9:09Speaker 2: the rage that my own family member demonstrated. She's h
- 9:13Speaker 2: she's a charlatan, she's a phony. She's and I said,
- 9:18Speaker 2: don't you have any sympathy for somebody raising two kids. Oh,
- 9:21Speaker 2: she's got a whole staff of people raising those kids.
- 9:24Speaker 2: She's got you know, she's rich, filthy rich. And the
- 9:29Speaker 2: and the perception he has is and maybe these other
- 9:32Speaker 2: women do too. Erica kind of just glommed on to
- 9:36Speaker 2: Charlie as a as a you know, as an opportunistic
- 9:40Speaker 2: way to that into the rule. It's so cruel there's
- 9:44Speaker 2: a meanness to it. Mark, It's that's what I tried
- 9:47Speaker 2: to say to my kid. You're you're, you're, you're being
- 9:50Speaker 2: so cruel, and he's no, not, no, I'm not. Don't
- 9:54Speaker 2: you don't you follow what's going on? I know what
- 9:56Speaker 2: you're following. You're spending too much time on you know, Instagram.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Here's our TikTok. I got an idea, come back to
- 10:04Speaker 2: the real world and have some empathy that your mother
- 10:07Speaker 2: and I tried to instill in you over somebody whose
- 10:09Speaker 2: husband was murdered. For God's sakes. I mean, I'm telling you, Mark,
- 10:14Speaker 2: this is the strangest thing. And again I go back.
- 10:17Speaker 2: I know we deviated a little bit a moment ago,
- 10:19Speaker 2: but I will admit that it was a little peculiar
- 10:23Speaker 2: to see that kind of creepy video of her kissing
- 10:27Speaker 2: his hand in the cast, getting sobbing and leaning over it.
- 10:31Speaker 2: I would never put a video like that out of
- 10:33Speaker 2: such an intimate moment.
- 10:35Speaker 3: Nor would I. And yet there's kind of a rule
- 10:38Speaker 3: and I've extended this to pardon the jump from news
- 10:42Speaker 3: stories to like Carmelo Anthony's family, which has gone full
- 10:45Speaker 3: activist and embracing the lies surrounding his obvious guilt. I
- 10:50Speaker 3: don't bag on them. The reason, the overall principle being,
- 10:57Speaker 3: I really try to give people an enormal amount of
- 11:00Speaker 3: latitude as to how they grieve.
- 11:03Speaker 2: How they grieve, I just give.
- 11:05Speaker 3: It because have you ever seen somebody, Let's make it
- 11:07Speaker 3: not a particular news story at all. Some people they'll
- 11:11Speaker 3: have something horrible happen in their lives. They'll vanish for
- 11:14Speaker 3: a month. That would probably be me. They or other
- 11:17Speaker 3: people have something horrible in their lives. They're talking to
- 11:20Speaker 3: the media that night. It's like, what what do you do?
- 11:22Speaker 3: And talking to reporters whatever people want to do or
- 11:26Speaker 3: felt to do or driven to do. I have everybody
- 11:28Speaker 3: grieves differently, and I probably wouldn't give it. Give anybody
- 11:31Speaker 3: grief about their grief.
- 11:34Speaker 2: I'm with you. I made a big, terrible mistake at
- 11:37Speaker 2: Denise's funeral. I was a little rattled because we I
- 11:40Speaker 2: don't know if you remember this story, but Denise's memorial
- 11:43Speaker 2: service was at White's Chapel in South Lake and our
- 11:46Speaker 2: dear friend John McKellar, who was the pastor, and he
- 11:49Speaker 2: delivered a beautiful eulogy. When Denise was sick. Denise and
- 11:55Speaker 2: John and his wife Debbie and I went to Disney
- 11:57Speaker 2: World and we and we love you know, we're Disney
- 12:03Speaker 2: folks and the mckellers are and and John in his
- 12:07Speaker 2: eulogy for Denise, reminded the congregation that when we went
- 12:12Speaker 2: to Disney World and they had it was at Chris
- 12:15Speaker 2: it was over the holidays, and they had the Cinderella
- 12:19Speaker 2: Castle all be decked in the beautiful Christmas lights and
- 12:24Speaker 2: uh and John John remembered that Denise said this must
- 12:28Speaker 2: be what heaven looks like. And so John in the
- 12:32Speaker 2: eulogy said that that's what we're Denise right now is
- 12:36Speaker 2: at Hearst Cinderella Castle in Heaven right with God, the
- 12:40Speaker 2: Father Almighty. But I love that and I love.
- 12:42Speaker 3: That absolutely poetic it was.
- 12:45Speaker 2: And he put a picture up I'll never forget it
- 12:46Speaker 2: on the on the jumbo man at the Big Church
- 12:50Speaker 2: all I was on the floor. But anyway, I was
- 12:52Speaker 2: rattled because we also got word a day or two
- 12:55Speaker 2: before the memorial service that the Westboro Baptist Church was
- 12:58Speaker 2: going to pick it outside Denise's funeral. And ye remember
- 13:02Speaker 2: those crazies, the ones.
- 13:04Speaker 3: That Fred Phelps and the well, yeah, okay, so it
- 13:08Speaker 3: take thirty seconds. Everybody knows who these are, people whose
- 13:12Speaker 3: perversion of Christianity thinks that that they they should take
- 13:16Speaker 3: God's word, which has some things to say about some behaviors.
- 13:21Speaker 3: These are people made probably most famous for standing outside
- 13:26Speaker 3: the funerals. Let's say there was somebody who was a
- 13:27Speaker 3: member of the service, a military member, who happened to
- 13:31Speaker 3: be gay. They would stand while they've got the twenty
- 13:34Speaker 3: one gun salute and the flag and whatever. They would
- 13:37Speaker 3: stand there as close as they could get, with big
- 13:39Speaker 3: signs that say God hates fags. That was their little
- 13:45Speaker 3: way of getting in their two cents on the issue.
- 13:47Speaker 3: And that is of course abysmal.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Behave.
- 13:50Speaker 2: Well, they're they're they're they're demonic. I mean, they're demons.
- 13:54Speaker 2: But I did something. What drew there? What drew their
- 13:56Speaker 2: attention and your family because they knew me. You may
- 13:59Speaker 2: have remembered this, and I'm I made some news when
- 14:02Speaker 2: I did this.
- 14:03Speaker 3: You offered to have them on the show.
- 14:05Speaker 2: I gave them airtime in exchange and return for that
- 14:08Speaker 2: they would leave a funeral alone. The deal was they
- 14:11Speaker 2: were going to go protest an Amish kid's funeral. It
- 14:16Speaker 2: was remember the church. There was a church shooting at
- 14:18Speaker 2: an Amish I think it was an Amish schoolhouse maybe,
- 14:22Speaker 2: And there were some children killed in Amish country right
- 14:25Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania, I think.
- 14:26Speaker 3: Is what was their gripe against the Amish.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Well, they that's what they They would always go to.
- 14:31Speaker 2: It wasn't just gay soldiers they went to. They went
- 14:34Speaker 2: to like any high profile funeral they could go to.
- 14:38Speaker 2: It was just anywhere there was anywhere where they thought
- 14:40Speaker 2: there'd be media coverage of a funeral, they would go protest.
- 14:44Speaker 2: And so they were going to go and I felt
- 14:46Speaker 2: so sorry for these poor Amish people because they don't
- 14:49Speaker 2: watch the news, they don't even listen to radio or TV.
- 14:52Speaker 2: They're going to have these hateful, horrible people outside their
- 14:55Speaker 2: loved ones church and protest and and I'm like, holy crap.
- 15:02Speaker 2: I don't want them to go there and hurt these people.
- 15:04Speaker 2: So I came up with the idea, tell you what,
- 15:07Speaker 2: how about you come on my show. I'll put you,
- 15:09Speaker 2: I'll give you a national talk show I'll put I'm
- 15:12Speaker 2: gonna put Denesh de Suza on with you to debate you,
- 15:16Speaker 2: because because your version of scripture ain't the right version
- 15:19Speaker 2: of scripture. But Densh can probably set you straight, and
- 15:22Speaker 2: in exchange for coming on the show, you'll sign a
- 15:25Speaker 2: written promise that you'll leave that family, those families alone,
- 15:28Speaker 2: and you won't and you won't protest them. Now, I
- 15:30Speaker 2: got a lot of flak for that because some people
- 15:33Speaker 2: were very critical of me doing.
- 15:35Speaker 3: That same why are you giving them the light of day?
- 15:37Speaker 3: You should do that. I think it was a master
- 15:40Speaker 3: stroke of genius. Number one pretty great radio, which obviously
- 15:44Speaker 3: is the locomotive you know that guides almost any train.
- 15:47Speaker 3: But more important than that, you you. It was morally
- 15:53Speaker 3: magnificent because in this gesture, which might have rankled the
- 15:57Speaker 3: sensibilities of some, you were able to to spare some people,
- 16:02Speaker 3: some a horrible thing. It's one of my favorite things
- 16:05Speaker 3: you have ever done.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Well. I felt like if you could take your show
- 16:09Speaker 2: and do a little bit of good in the world,
- 16:11Speaker 2: that's what you and I try to do all the
- 16:12Speaker 2: time when we're partnering with prison fellowship or food for
- 16:15Speaker 2: the poor, we do these things. But in that case,
- 16:18Speaker 2: I thought, let's spare these families, and if these monstrous
- 16:21Speaker 2: people will agree to stay away just for twenty minutes
- 16:24Speaker 2: of airtime or an hour, whatever it was, win win.
- 16:26Speaker 2: It's just an hour of my show Who Cares Right,
- 16:29Speaker 2: you know? And it was a win win, and I
- 16:30Speaker 2: was very proud of it, and I'll always stand by it.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Well because of that, they knew me, and that was
- 16:35Speaker 2: all that was where the raids, that was on their radar.
- 16:38Speaker 2: And so that's why there was a rumor that they
- 16:40Speaker 2: were going to come to South Lake, Texas and protest
- 16:43Speaker 2: outside of Denise's memorial service. And of course the kids
- 16:47Speaker 2: that my kids went nuts. They were like, hey, Dad,
- 16:50Speaker 2: how about let's bring some baseball bats with us in
- 16:52Speaker 2: the in the limousine to the church. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
- 16:55Speaker 2: no no, We're not going to have We're not going
- 16:58Speaker 2: to start hitting the Westboro Baptist Church. Yeah, as if
- 17:04Speaker 2: there wasn't as if there wasn't something else going on, right,
- 17:08Speaker 2: I mean, so so I go, I go there and
- 17:12Speaker 2: and and we do this the funeral. A yeah, long
- 17:15Speaker 2: story short. You know, he showed up and I'll never
- 17:17Speaker 2: and this is who I feel terrible about. Do you
- 17:19Speaker 2: remember remember Mayor Tom Leppert, of course.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Former Dallas mayor, and he was the dress Senate candidate.
- 17:25Speaker 2: That's right, he ran for Senate. He was a I
- 17:27Speaker 2: think he was a good mayor, right, I mean, I
- 17:28Speaker 2: think he was, absolutely And he was a listener to
- 17:31Speaker 2: the to the show and to the station. He listened
- 17:34Speaker 2: to six sixty and you know, he came to the funeral,
- 17:37Speaker 2: which I thought was so touching and uh, a really
- 17:40Speaker 2: good guy. I liked him. I don't know we agree
- 17:42Speaker 2: on everything politically. Was he a Democrat or a Republican?
- 17:45Speaker 2: He was.
- 17:45Speaker 3: He was as as you will see in Dallas. He's
- 17:48Speaker 3: the sort of kind of Republican for the republic He
- 17:51Speaker 3: ran for the Republican nomination.
- 17:53Speaker 1: He was.
- 17:53Speaker 2: He was a Republican. Yeah, yeah, but he was pretty liberal,
- 17:55Speaker 2: got pretty moderate. Anyway, he showed up, which I thought
- 17:58Speaker 2: was wonderful. We got I decided, and a lot of funerals.
- 18:04Speaker 2: You know, you know this and you've been to funerals.
- 18:06Speaker 2: Unfortunately you're supposed to kind of stand there after the
- 18:09Speaker 2: service and greet everybody. Yeah, and I didn't want to
- 18:13Speaker 2: do that. I just thought I just didn't want to
- 18:16Speaker 2: do that because not only was do we have people
- 18:18Speaker 2: paying their respects, but God bless them, there were listeners
- 18:21Speaker 2: there and just people. I didn't even you'd still you'd
- 18:25Speaker 2: still be there. I mean I didn't want to do it.
- 18:28Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it was hundreds of people, but
- 18:30Speaker 2: I just didn't And so we got in the car. Anyway,
- 18:33Speaker 2: So we got in the they have the funeral home
- 18:35Speaker 2: limousine and all that crap with the and we drove
- 18:38Speaker 2: away after the service. And as we were driving away,
- 18:41Speaker 2: I saw Tom Leppert standing in the front of the
- 18:43Speaker 2: church looking confused because I'm sure he wanted to pay
- 18:46Speaker 2: his respects in person. That is the thing, right, You're
- 18:49Speaker 2: supposed to like accept people's condolencies.
- 18:52Speaker 3: Kind is we're just talking about how you knows no
- 18:57Speaker 3: guy who forgives anybody grief about You're right, It's it
- 19:01Speaker 3: is a kind of an etiquette thing. So they say
- 19:04Speaker 3: funerals are for the living, which they are, because don't care. Uh,
- 19:09Speaker 3: that gesture is sort of a show of deference towards
- 19:13Speaker 3: those who chose to come.
- 19:16Speaker 2: No, I get it, and I and look I was
- 19:19Speaker 2: in a special dispensation free pass. But anyway, it's all
- 19:24Speaker 2: kind of boy. This is a nice happy morbid edition
- 19:27Speaker 2: of a vminem extra what's your funeral story? Mark? Got
- 19:30Speaker 2: any you can share? Anybody die? Before we even get.
- 19:34Speaker 3: To the imagery of your kids, clubbing Fred Phelps with
- 19:39Speaker 3: baseball bats? Thank you, Mark, Hey, Dad, let's bring baseball bats?
- 19:43Speaker 3: And I said, and they and they were serious, they said,
- 19:46Speaker 3: can we fetch some baseball bats? Well, it's a big limo,
- 19:49Speaker 3: it's a stretch limbo. I bet we can from the
- 19:51Speaker 3: funeral home. That's all we need is for the Gallagher
- 19:53Speaker 3: boys to pop out of the car and start hitting
- 19:57Speaker 3: Margie Phelps over the head with the baseball.
- 20:00Speaker 2: That'd be the end of me. That'd be my last
- 20:03Speaker 2: week on the air. I mean, can you imagine? Can
- 20:06Speaker 2: you imagine? And then dealing with that, and then dealing
- 20:09Speaker 2: with the stupid do I stay afterwards? And then of
- 20:12Speaker 2: course there's the I haven't even started on the very
- 20:15Speaker 2: funny Betty Buckley story. I'll save that for another day.
- 20:19Speaker 2: We'll save that for another day. It's a great story, though,
- 20:21Speaker 2: it's a great story. So anyway, where are we? Where
- 20:24Speaker 2: do we leave off?
- 20:24Speaker 3: Well, I tell you, if you want to yank yourself
- 20:26Speaker 3: back to the last twenty four hours, I heard you
- 20:29Speaker 3: address something and you can help me out with it
- 20:31Speaker 3: because it's on my radar. Some I had fourteen things
- 20:34Speaker 3: going on, and this was not predominantly one of them.
- 20:37Speaker 3: And that it involves our guy, Scott Presler, whom we
- 20:41Speaker 3: really really admire. And there's some conservatives, some Republicans like him,
- 20:44Speaker 3: and some decidedly do not. And there is a lesson
- 20:48Speaker 3: in observing which Republicans don't like Scott Presler. Give everybody
- 20:52Speaker 3: sixty seconds on who this neat young man is.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Well, not only who he is, but we're going to
- 20:58Speaker 2: play the clip that when viral, that made him the
- 21:01Speaker 2: number one trending topic for many, many hours on X
- 21:04Speaker 2: and Twitter. So Scott Presser people recognize him. He's the
- 21:09Speaker 2: kid with long hair. He's a big, tall, kind of
- 21:12Speaker 2: thin guy with long, long hair and wears cowboy boots
- 21:16Speaker 2: and he is a self described voting rights and voter
- 21:21Speaker 2: registration warrior. He goes around the country and he registers
- 21:25Speaker 2: people to vote, and he has single handedly, frankly, helped
- 21:28Speaker 2: get a lot of Republicans elected. He's definitely a Republican.
- 21:32Speaker 2: He's not a liberal Democrat.
- 21:33Speaker 3: But he is he a convert? Is he one of
- 21:35Speaker 3: those folks? He's like an ex smoker.
- 21:37Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. I don't know enough about him.
- 21:40Speaker 3: You talk while I researched, Well, I guess he had
- 21:43Speaker 3: come from the folder.
- 21:44Speaker 2: I don't know if he came over from the Democrat side,
- 21:46Speaker 2: but but I know that he is indefatigable. He goes
- 21:49Speaker 2: from state to state, county to county. He registers people
- 21:52Speaker 2: to vote. He's very soft spoken. He's not a he's
- 21:55Speaker 2: not a flamethrower or a red meat guy.
- 21:58Speaker 3: He's apparently and apparently not a parent, not a convert.
- 22:00Speaker 3: I'm thinking of other people because because those people who
- 22:03Speaker 3: used to be Liberals that aren't anymore, they are on fire.
- 22:07Speaker 2: But anyway, they are on fire. But he's real respectful,
- 22:09Speaker 2: and he's always very polite, and he always says peacefully,
- 22:12Speaker 2: I respectfully, I'll respectfully blah blah blah. He's a nice guy.
- 22:16Speaker 2: I've interviewed him a couple of times and he and
- 22:19Speaker 2: he's very very well liked and even loved in Republican
- 22:23Speaker 2: party circles because he's done so much. He's the typical
- 22:27Speaker 2: he's not typical. He's the quintessential grassroots sort of activist.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Get you registered to vote? Are you registered? Do you
- 22:36Speaker 2: know how to register? Make sure your neighbors are registered?
- 22:39Speaker 2: And he many people say, has gotten a lot of
- 22:42Speaker 2: Republicans elected over the last few years. He's devoted years
- 22:45Speaker 2: of his life to doing this. I'm also kind of
- 22:47Speaker 2: intrigued about who funds him or if he gets donations,
- 22:51Speaker 2: because it can't be cheap to go from state to state,
- 22:54Speaker 2: you know, doing this, So anyway he goes. And he
- 22:57Speaker 2: has been a staunch advocate to get the damn Save
- 23:02Speaker 2: America Act passed. He has been a leader in this,
- 23:06Speaker 2: in this effort to get this thing done. And he
- 23:09Speaker 2: is respectfully calling on John Thune, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski
- 23:15Speaker 2: drop your objections. There are ways to get this done.
- 23:18Speaker 2: And I've talked to Mike Lee or Rick Scott rather
- 23:21Speaker 2: than others who say there's a way to get this done.
- 23:23Speaker 2: There they can. They can either do it's they call
- 23:26Speaker 2: it the talking filibuster. You could you could nuke the filibuster.
- 23:30Speaker 2: But there are different paths that could be taken. Don't
- 23:33Speaker 2: believe the narrative that you that there's no chance of
- 23:37Speaker 2: even getting that pass. That's not true. It's simply a lie. Anyway,
- 23:41Speaker 2: So they are holding their South Dakota State convention last night.
- 23:46Speaker 2: They're out on recess. The Senate John Thune ordered them
- 23:49Speaker 2: to all go on vacation how about that for timing
- 23:52Speaker 2: with all that's going on in the world. So they're
- 23:54Speaker 2: holding their South Dakota State Convention and Scott Pressler has
- 23:58Speaker 2: a ticket that he a pair has paid for and
- 24:01Speaker 2: he gets to the entrance and they won't let him in.
- 24:06Speaker 2: He's been banned from being able to get into the convention. Well,
- 24:10Speaker 2: he whips out his cell phone and here's what happened.
- 24:14Speaker 2: As he is apparently doing a live stream explaining what's
- 24:17Speaker 2: going on, the Sergeant at Arm, Sergeant of Arm, the
- 24:21Speaker 2: Sergeant of Arms shows up from the South Dakota is
- 24:24Speaker 2: it at Arms? Sergeant at argent? He shows up. This
- 24:28Speaker 2: guy shows up in the middle of this, Well, let's
- 24:32Speaker 2: just leave. Here's how this all played out.
- 24:35Speaker 5: Hey, guys, this is Scott Pressler. I'm here at the
- 24:37Speaker 5: South Dakota State Convention. I have a ticket and they
- 24:41Speaker 5: are saying that I can't come in. So we're going
- 24:45Speaker 5: to find out very shortly why I am not being allowed.
- 24:49Speaker 5: As one of the biggest supporters of President Donald J.
- 24:52Speaker 1: Trump, I'm big on Facebook too, and I'm saying you
- 24:55Speaker 1: can't come in because guess what you're posting this little
- 24:59Speaker 1: piss and moans on Facebook.
- 25:02Speaker 3: So you just get the hell out of here. Thank you.
- 25:05Speaker 5: You see you see how that you see how the
- 25:07Speaker 5: grassroots are welcomed in sent Majority leader foonds territory. Interesting,
- 25:15Speaker 5: my friends, I don't think this is a good reflection
- 25:20Speaker 5: of the South Dakota GOP, but I thank him for
- 25:25Speaker 5: his honesty.
- 25:26Speaker 2: Though, what's your? What's your?
- 25:27Speaker 5: Matthew Bruhner, sergeant at arms.
- 25:31Speaker 3: Great, let's let's tox him.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Yeah, Matthew Brunner has been fired. He has been relieved
- 25:37Speaker 2: of his duties, and the state GOP chairman has apologized
- 25:42Speaker 2: profusely to Scott Presler publicly on social media. But I
- 25:46Speaker 2: want to play for you what the chairman said? Mark
- 25:48Speaker 2: chairman Jim Eschenbaum another reporter after this incident happened and
- 25:53Speaker 2: it went viral big time last night. Right, it's all
- 25:56Speaker 2: over social media. Well, Jim Eschenbaum confer to the reporter
- 26:01Speaker 2: and God bless his honesty, confirmed that it was indeed
- 26:06Speaker 2: Senate Majority Leader John Thune who person who personally banned
- 26:12Speaker 2: Scott Presler from it from getting into the convention. Here
- 26:15Speaker 2: was that exchange on tape.
- 26:16Speaker 5: Did John Thune specifically asked that Scott Presler.
- 26:19Speaker 3: Not attend this event?
- 26:20Speaker 1: Yes, okay.
- 26:21Speaker 3: Is John Thune a member of the Convention Committee?
- 26:25Speaker 5: No, so, how does he have authority to remove people
- 26:28Speaker 5: from events?
- 26:29Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 26:31Speaker 4: He has a.
- 26:35Speaker 3: He has a lot of security in there in the middle.
- 26:38Speaker 5: Is mister Presler considered a security threat?
- 26:42Speaker 2: That for me?
- 26:43Speaker 3: But I'm not going to go in there and argue
- 26:46Speaker 3: with the secret Service.
- 26:48Speaker 1: You maybe James.
- 26:51Speaker 2: Isn't that wild? And you know the reporter result into
- 26:54Speaker 2: procedure and all that. But I couldn't get past the
- 26:56Speaker 2: first question. Can you confirm was it was it John
- 26:59Speaker 2: Thune who ban Scott Presler? Yes, that came from the
- 27:03Speaker 2: that came from the state chairman. Uh, Mark, this John
- 27:07Speaker 2: Thune's gotta go, He's gotta go.
- 27:10Speaker 3: Mixed mindus some of me her real quick, guys, So
- 27:13Speaker 3: my my, my dog can explain this, and and every
- 27:18Speaker 3: and everyone clearly knows what happened here. I love Scott
- 27:22Speaker 3: Presler love I'm a fan of his brand of activism,
- 27:26Speaker 3: and I believe in the things that he is supporting.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Senator Fun decidedly does not. Senator fun is by far
- 27:35Speaker 3: the biggest Republican in the state and one of the
- 27:38Speaker 3: most powerful people in America. Scott Presler's presence at this
- 27:44Speaker 3: event where John Fun is would be a colossal embarrassment
- 27:48Speaker 3: to John Fun. So that is the conflict, and that
- 27:51Speaker 3: is the problem, and Fun is the problematic part of
- 27:54Speaker 3: this equation. But obviously Fun and his forces, we're not
- 28:00Speaker 3: going to allow a guy with a gazillion followers into
- 28:03Speaker 3: an event where all he was going to do was
- 28:06Speaker 3: make clear the John Thune's failure to do what most
- 28:10Speaker 3: of his voters want him to do. So you could
- 28:13Speaker 3: have foreseen this a mile away.
- 28:15Speaker 2: Well, but the strange thing is to make to make
- 28:18Speaker 2: an example, if you will, out of this mild mannered,
- 28:22Speaker 2: likable kid. I mean he's not he's not going to
- 28:25Speaker 2: stand up and he's not gonna start screaming in the
- 28:29Speaker 2: middle of the convention. You know he's not gonna do
- 28:31Speaker 2: He wouldn't have disrupted. In fact, that was one of
- 28:32Speaker 2: the exchanges, was you think Scott Pressler is a security
- 28:36Speaker 2: threat to the speaker? I mean majority, of.
- 28:40Speaker 3: Course what Congressman Al Green waving a cane? Of course not.
- 28:45Speaker 3: But in his quiet, mannerly effective, precise way that almost
- 28:52Speaker 3: makes him worse if you're John Fun, because it's not
- 28:55Speaker 3: some lunatic, you can dismiss it's not so control. He's
- 28:59Speaker 3: just a obstintive, thoughtful young man who's every word spoken
- 29:05Speaker 3: to that event would have shown a bright light on
- 29:07Speaker 3: how inadequate a warrior. John Fune is on the Save
- 29:11Speaker 3: America Act issue, and they wanted no part of.
- 29:14Speaker 2: That, which is why I maintained they got to step
- 29:16Speaker 2: in and get this guy removed. Now I understand there
- 29:19Speaker 2: is a procedural way to get him removed, Well, Trump
- 29:22Speaker 2: and Vance could do it. Why not removed as what
- 29:27Speaker 2: as Senate majority leader? He's got to be removed as
- 29:29Speaker 2: a Senate majority leader. You don't think Rick Scott would
- 29:32Speaker 2: be a better Senate Majority.
- 29:33Speaker 3: Leader than John would or Tom Conton or anyone of
- 29:36Speaker 3: a number of folks. But the we're okay, no, never happened.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Oh, really like Biden, Just like Biden won't get pushed
- 29:47Speaker 2: out of the price.
- 29:50Speaker 3: Please don't with with We're gonna have listen, go go
- 29:53Speaker 3: around the block and get a sandwich and come back,
- 29:55Speaker 3: and we'll have a new Congress. It will very soon
- 29:58Speaker 3: be time to to pick. It'll be it'll be too late.
- 30:03Speaker 3: It'll be too late, because it's going to be you're
- 30:06Speaker 3: talking about post November three.
- 30:08Speaker 2: This is going to happen. Now. I'm telling you, right now,
- 30:11Speaker 2: you you mark my words, just like I've predicted a
- 30:14Speaker 2: couple of other things. I'm telling you, I think President
- 30:18Speaker 2: Trump's going to lose patience with John Thune, and I
- 30:21Speaker 2: think they're going to step in and they're going to
- 30:23Speaker 2: figure out a way to get him out of there.
- 30:24Speaker 2: And there's a way, and it's a procedural thing. You
- 30:27Speaker 2: can look it up there. It has something to do
- 30:29Speaker 2: with it.
- 30:29Speaker 3: This is me looking it up because I'm pretty fascinated
- 30:32Speaker 3: by it. The first thing that occurs to me is
- 30:34Speaker 3: should a president be able to jack with who the
- 30:37Speaker 3: Senate Majority leader is? And if you're thinking, shoot, yeah,
- 30:40Speaker 3: imagine a Democrat president trying to get rid of Senate
- 30:43Speaker 3: Majority Leader Rick Scott. It's president no, but.
- 30:46Speaker 2: It's a wait, but it's a Republican president and a
- 30:49Speaker 2: Republican majority leader.
- 30:50Speaker 3: That's the points. Let's let's say it were a Let's
- 30:56Speaker 3: say we're a Rhino president trying to get rid of
- 31:00Speaker 3: a conservative grassroots activist that he didn't.
- 31:03Speaker 2: You look it up. You look it up on the
- 31:06Speaker 2: Twitter machine. There, you go ahead and see there is
- 31:09Speaker 2: a way. Has it involves the vice president to market
- 31:12Speaker 2: has something to do with JD. Vance coming in. There's
- 31:15Speaker 2: some kind of a procedural. The vice president is the president,
- 31:20Speaker 2: he's the president of the Senate, so he gets called
- 31:23Speaker 2: into this at Trump's direction, and there is a process
- 31:27Speaker 2: where John Thune could be removed as a Senate majority leader.
- 31:31Speaker 2: And and for some reason, let's all acknowledge this. Trump
- 31:35Speaker 2: has danced around John Thune for a while and has
- 31:38Speaker 2: been weirdly respectful of John Thune. I think it's because
- 31:42Speaker 2: he wants Thun to play ball and he wants to
- 31:45Speaker 2: be respectful. I can see the look on your face.
- 31:47Speaker 2: I can see it.
- 31:48Speaker 3: Yeah, don't talk. Talk show host groc says, Nope. Maybe
- 31:54Speaker 3: here you sometimes you got to ask the right question, right, right?
- 31:57Speaker 2: Right?
- 31:57Speaker 3: Can a president or VP get rid of a Senate
- 32:02Speaker 3: majority leader? Nope? Neither the president nor the VP can
- 32:05Speaker 3: remove or directly get rid of Why not? Senate Majority
- 32:08Speaker 3: leader is an internal leadership position chosen by the senators themselves.
- 32:12Speaker 3: It's not a constitutional office appointed by a confirmed by
- 32:15Speaker 3: the President. Then that goes through the process of how
- 32:17Speaker 3: you become that VP's limited Senate role. He is the
- 32:21Speaker 3: President of the Senate, but the role is mostly ceremonial
- 32:24Speaker 3: presiding over the Senate, casting tie breaking votes vps, no
- 32:27Speaker 3: authority over party leadership positions like majority leaders.
- 32:31Speaker 2: So I mean, okay, well here, according to chat GPT.
- 32:37Speaker 3: Ut ais dueling ais.
- 32:41Speaker 2: While you do it, and I always love it when
- 32:43Speaker 2: GROC is supposed to be the conservative version and chat
- 32:46Speaker 2: GPT gives a much more conservative answer. Yes, there are
- 32:50Speaker 2: a few ways that a Senate majority leader can be removed.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Their own party replaces them. This is the most common route.
- 32:58Speaker 2: The majority leader, the leader that's not the person. Well,
- 33:01Speaker 2: they're gonna come on, they're gonna do that at the
- 33:03Speaker 2: direction of the president. What are you talking about that,
- 33:05Speaker 2: I'm saying Trump.
- 33:10Speaker 3: Trump's direction.
- 33:11Speaker 2: But but the majority leader. But the majority leader can
- 33:15Speaker 2: be removed. It's the majority leader, or according to Chad
- 33:18Speaker 2: jput the major Well, that's.
- 33:19Speaker 3: What I'm saying, remove him, remove him. Pardon me for
- 33:23Speaker 3: actually hearing the words come out of your mouth. I
- 33:25Speaker 3: find that that you thought that there was something somehow
- 33:28Speaker 3: that Trump or Vance could directly some wand they.
- 33:32Speaker 2: They can tell them the Republican Party, we want to
- 33:34Speaker 2: get him removed. The majority leader is chosen by the
- 33:37Speaker 2: senators in the majority party. If enough members of that
- 33:40Speaker 2: party lose confidence in the leader, they can hold a
- 33:43Speaker 2: leadership election and choose someone else, or you know, but
- 33:47Speaker 2: that again, you're right, we're semantics here, But I'm just saying,
- 33:50Speaker 2: how much more are we going to put up with
- 33:52Speaker 2: with this guy? How many if there's Republican here's my theory,
- 33:57Speaker 2: there's more Republicans who are wlietly rooting against the Save
- 34:02Speaker 2: America Act, then we know when we know there's four
- 34:05Speaker 2: or five of them. There's Murkowski, there's Tom Tillis, I'm
- 34:09Speaker 2: sure Bill Cassidy, you've got maybe Thoon. Susan Collins said
- 34:15Speaker 2: she'd vote for the Save America Act, so she flipped.
- 34:17Speaker 2: But I got a feeling that, to your point, the
- 34:20Speaker 2: reason it will never happen is because there's not going
- 34:22Speaker 2: to be enough senators in the Republicans.
- 34:24Speaker 3: Well, but too, now that you've sent me into this
- 34:27Speaker 3: delicious and live, deep dive into this rabbit hole, how
- 34:32Speaker 3: many how many senators would it take? Simple majority? Is
- 34:36Speaker 3: all I said? At the fifty three, So twenty seven
- 34:42Speaker 3: Republicans and he's not majority leader anymore. And suddenly this
- 34:46Speaker 3: thing that I said about five minutes ago would never
- 34:48Speaker 3: happen looks suddenly plausible. Welcome to in real time.
- 34:53Speaker 2: See, we'll get there. It may take us a while,
- 34:55Speaker 2: we may have a torturous route, but we'll get there.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Some conclusions we had into a weekend we head into
- 35:02Speaker 2: the fourth of July, we're gonna got some we've got
- 35:04Speaker 2: some M and M extras planned for you. Next week,
- 35:06Speaker 2: we're gonna have some patriotic stuff put together, and you're
- 35:09Speaker 2: also going to take another little bit of R and R.
- 35:12Speaker 3: Correct, I am, I've got, I've got next week, next
- 35:15Speaker 3: week is off, and then back on July sixth. And
- 35:18Speaker 3: there was one thing. It'll just take a.
- 35:20Speaker 2: Couple of the way quick house grape of note. I'm
- 35:22Speaker 2: probably gonna be off six seventh and eighth exactly. That's right,
- 35:26Speaker 2: that's right, that's right. Now, that's quite right.
- 35:29Speaker 3: There's one speaking of recurring features of Mike and Mark,
- 35:33Speaker 3: I mentioned we we mentioned that there was something we
- 35:35Speaker 3: were going to do, and we'd best not deny the
- 35:37Speaker 3: public this. Ladies and gentlemen. Boomers discussing their medical procedures.
- 35:42Speaker 3: That's right, Boomers discussing their medical prosps. I forgot you
- 35:45Speaker 3: had your don't make this not angioplastic edge your grim,
- 35:51Speaker 3: I think the edgioplasties where they run the balloon up
- 35:53Speaker 3: your crotch so that your blood can throw. So this
- 35:58Speaker 3: this was the contrast to die right and the detail,
- 36:03Speaker 3: you know, scanning of the thing. So I do commercials
- 36:06Speaker 3: for BIA Scan of Los Calinas, which sends you through
- 36:09Speaker 3: the scan thing without the just sort of visually looking
- 36:11Speaker 3: inside your body. Right, And I'm also sixty eight. Both
- 36:14Speaker 3: my mom and my dad had heart disease, so I'm
- 36:15Speaker 3: just lucky to make it to lunchtime every day. So
- 36:18Speaker 3: doctor Duncan said, hey, with the heart history and being
- 36:22Speaker 3: sixty eight and with a slightly elevated calcification score, what
- 36:25Speaker 3: do we do the CT And your gram said, sure,
- 36:27Speaker 3: let's go nothing alarming, let's just do it. Just seems
- 36:29Speaker 3: like a good idea. So I go in there, went
- 36:32Speaker 3: to Texas Texas Health in Denton, and it was I'm
- 36:37Speaker 3: fascinated by medical technology and the experience and all these things.
- 36:41Speaker 3: And so they gave me a medication meant to prolol
- 36:47Speaker 3: tart rate, which is just fun to say. That kind
- 36:49Speaker 3: of keeps your heart rate under control because you can't
- 36:51Speaker 3: you can't be going in there fluttering like a rabbit.
- 36:54Speaker 3: Because then I guess the pictures are blurry or something
- 36:56Speaker 3: like that. So my heart rate was good, my blood
- 36:58Speaker 3: pressure was good. Creatinine for kidney function because you've got
- 37:02Speaker 3: to be able to flush the die out of your
- 37:03Speaker 3: system efficiently. It all worked great, and it went absolutely superbly.
- 37:08Speaker 3: And here really is the crazy thing that's sort of
- 37:11Speaker 3: the point of bringing it up. You ever have a
- 37:13Speaker 3: medical test and then sit around in your house for
- 37:16Speaker 3: a week waiting for somebody to anoint you with a
- 37:19Speaker 3: phone call in which you finally learn what we finally
- 37:23Speaker 3: danged to tell the patient what the situation is. I
- 37:28Speaker 3: don't know if everybody does this, but in big plug
- 37:31Speaker 3: for Texas Health, I guess yesterday. So I did the
- 37:34Speaker 3: thing yesterday at about three at six o'clock, bloop, you
- 37:38Speaker 3: have a new test result in your Texas Health app.
- 37:41Speaker 3: And so here's what I did, once again speaking of Ai.
- 37:44Speaker 3: It was the test result which was in this Egyptian
- 37:47Speaker 3: hieroglyphic of medical language of this and that and the
- 37:50Speaker 3: descending artery of this and that. So I copied and
- 37:55Speaker 3: pasted the whole thing, sent it to groc and said
- 37:57Speaker 3: can you turn this into English for me? Boom, and
- 38:01Speaker 3: it did, and it was just fine. I'm a good
- 38:05Speaker 3: idea for me to eat better, exercise more, and you know,
- 38:10Speaker 3: don't take up smoking.
- 38:11Speaker 2: Which I have no look at but look at you.
- 38:13Speaker 2: We talked so much about AI and Grock and chat,
- 38:16Speaker 2: GBT and all of this. Look at you using it
- 38:18Speaker 2: as a tool to get to get a layman's explanation
- 38:22Speaker 2: of a complicated medical analysis, and Grock broke it down
- 38:26Speaker 2: for you. Layman's How cool is that.
- 38:28Speaker 3: I've had it. I've had it do this with legal contracts,
- 38:31Speaker 3: legal documents that are fifty pages of gibberish. I said, hey,
- 38:35Speaker 3: what does this mean to me? Boop ten seconds, here's
- 38:39Speaker 3: the real world ramification of this real estate thing, this transaction.
- 38:43Speaker 2: You're using it way more than I am. You're using
- 38:45Speaker 2: I gotta get I gotta get on it. I got
- 38:47Speaker 2: to start using it more and more. I had a
- 38:49Speaker 2: confect I even had a contractual issue come up this week,
- 38:51Speaker 2: and Mike, I'm glad you now. I'll ask them, thank you.
- 38:56Speaker 3: I'll make a note he doesn't charge it, doesn't charge
- 38:58Speaker 3: you six hundred dollars an hour either.
- 39:01Speaker 2: I love that. Well, good for you. I'm glad you're
- 39:03Speaker 2: healthy or well I'm healthy and well, happy forth of July.
- 39:07Speaker 2: We'll talk next week and we'll talk when we're back.
- 39:10Speaker 2: God bless America and uh Turkey, just stand by because
- 39:14Speaker 2: you may have a visit for.
- 39:16Speaker 3: For World Cup to come. Us A U s A
- 39:18Speaker 3: U s A. Let's win this thing. Huh. Who's winning? Mike, Mike,
- 39:25Speaker 3: all I hear, all I see?
- 39:27Speaker 2: Is you talking about watching for two and a half
- 39:29Speaker 2: hours a scoreless tie? I watch. I'd rather watch Paint
- 39:35Speaker 2: Drive than that, but that. God bless you and happy
- 39:37Speaker 2: for the July. I love you.
- 39:39Speaker 3: Happy Birthday America.
