• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I'm more mega now make America great again than I've
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: ever been. Making mornings great again. First thing today on
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: on this Ted's D morning. The radio program that tells
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: you what went on last night gives you our information,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: our analysis of it, and then you file Freedom of
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Information Act requests saying, how did you come up with that?
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Just like the people who want to bring down Doge. No,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: what really we want to have happen is you use
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: the Phone number slash text message hotline at 434-882-4217 to
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: tell us how the news of the day is impacting you.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I like this one. I like it when the needles
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: come out. No, no, not like in Skid Row in L.A.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: And not like in New York where they hand them
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: out by the Department of Health. Here you go, here
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: you go. You want to know where you can get
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: some smack? Zorhan Mamdani's got it in the back of
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: his grocery store. Vince writes in 24348824217, why do you
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: need to know what our reaction to the news is?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Why can't you just tell us what is going on
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: and leave it at that? Why do you need to
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: know how the news of the day is impacting us?
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Are you so disconnected from real life, Joe, that you
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: need to find out what's going on through us? You're
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: like some sort of creepy radio voyeur.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I live in the world that is circling
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: around me. And I'm telling you this because too many
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: of the people who do what I do pretend that
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: we live the same life you do. Do you think
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Anderson Cooper lives anything like the life you do, Vince?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, he doesn't even live the same life I do.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: And yes, because I am borderline notorious, and that can
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: be a good thing or a bad thing, I live
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: in a different ecosystem. I try to keep it real.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: There are moments where, you know, but there's writing and
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: there's connections with people that you don't have. I get it.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: So I am saying that I am voyeuristically looking at
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the world through your eyes in a great way. Did
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: you expect me to deny it? Then you expect me
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: to lie to you, too. Anyway, Vince, thank you for
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: the text. Justice Department in our first things has escalated
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: their investigation into Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota or D.C.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: It's apparently her home is in D.C., And she just
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: runs back to Minnesota for reelections. Subpoenas issued by the
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: DOJ mark a new development in the probe into perhaps
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: what is being reported leaked from within the DOJ investigations
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: into age records and her naturalization forms. Pope Leo's lung
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: cancer has been surgically dealt with. Doctors removed the lower
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: lobe of the pontiff's right lung, the Vatican reported. Statements
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: issued from Rome made no mention of treatments going forward.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Cornell University rape charge case has taken a new turn.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: CBS News has received and now published... text messages from
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the woman, identified in the case as Jane Doe, sharing
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: friendly messages with several of the accused men, at least one,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: less than 48 hours after the encounter at Cornell's Chi
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Phi fraternity. I don't think we should feel any shame
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: for the part of our body, our choice, ASF, she
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: wrote the following day. He brought up rumors circulating on
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: campus over the event, and she said it'll be funny
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: in a couple of months.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: U.S.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle acknowledged that her tenure is
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: coming to an end, speaking of text messages, but vowed
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: to defend herself against misconduct allegations. She says she's stepping down.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: The Trump administration says they asked her to resign. The
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: allegations against me are false, she writes on social media,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: and I intend to vigorously defend my name, my reputation,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: and my integrity. The Supreme Court, siding with the Trump administration,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: agreed to hear their arguments defending the process by which
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: the Department of Government Efficiency came with their recommendations. A
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: watchdog wants to see their work product to see how
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: they came to their conclusions as to what would be cut.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Saudi National had apparently put listening devices in the offices
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: of OpenAI. Abdulrahman Alvazan worked as an engineer at OpenAI
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: since July of last year. FBI has arrested him and
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: charged him with attempting to use a listening device to
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: intercept oral communications. Yes, apparently that's against the law. And
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: the Department of Energy has issued an emergency order for
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: the power grid covering D.C., Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Basically everyone under PJM interconnectivity. I write for the Daily
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Signal over Virginia, and this issue with the electric grid
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: is going to be part and parcel of some of
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: our upcoming coverage in the Virginia page. at dailysignal.com. We
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: also have coverage out of Ohio, a lot going on there,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Texas as well. I think they found James Talofrico. And
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: then in California as well as Georgia, and I mentioned
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: that state, coverage of your local news. More pages on
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: the way soon, getting reporters, getting them up to speed
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and getting them out there covering the stories that are
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: impacting you as the midterms approaches. Oh yes, at dailysignal.com.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: You know, it's true.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: to think about what matters most when it comes to
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: our spending, our health care. This is why so many
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: people are joining MediShare right now. MediShare is a trusted

• 7:29
  Speaker 4: can save you a lot of money. The typical family

• 8:03
  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

• 9:33
  Speaker 8: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
• 9:37
  Speaker 8: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
• 9:41
  Speaker 8: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 9:49
  Speaker 8: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 9:53
  Speaker 8: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 9:56
  Speaker 8: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
• 9:59
  Speaker 8: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I'm Dr.
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: Susan Rehm of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. When
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: I speak with my patients, I urge them to get
• 10:10
  Speaker 8: all their recommended vaccines. Now I'm urging you to speak
• 10:14
  Speaker 8: with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
• 10:17
  Speaker 8: For more information about the vaccines that are recommended for
• 10:20
  Speaker 8: adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,
• 10:24
  Speaker 8: and shingles, visit adultvaccination.org. That's www.adultvaccination.org.
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: We depend on our drinking water supply daily, but where
• 10:36
  Speaker 9: does that water come from? Your water provider encourages you
• 10:40
  Speaker 9: to get to know your local water source so together
• 10:43
  Speaker 9: we can protect and preserve it. The investments we make
• 10:46
  Speaker 9: as a community to protect our water source now ensure
• 10:49
  Speaker 9: we have a sustainable drinking water supply for the future.

  Speaker 10: If you came across someone struggling with hunger, how would
• 11:05
  Speaker 10: you recognize them?
• 11:07
  Speaker 9: By their clothes, their.
• 11:09
  Speaker 11: Age, the way they speak?
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: Would you notice a 16-year-old boy.
• 11:13
  Speaker 12: Who got his first job?
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Not for extra spending money, but to help feed his
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: little sisters.
• 11:19
  Speaker 13: Or a mother who's in between jobs and sometimes goes
• 11:22
  Speaker 13: to bed hungry so her kids can have dinner.
• 11:25
  Speaker 9: Or a 14-year-old girl who signs up to.
• 11:27
  Speaker 14: Every after-school activity not to make friends, but just to
• 11:30
  Speaker 14: get something to eat. Or a retiree who fell ill
• 11:35
  Speaker 14: and had.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: To choose between getting medicine or groceries.
• 11:40
  Speaker 15: I am the one in.
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: Eight Americans who struggle with hunger.
• 11:44
  Speaker 9: People you pass by every day but never knew were hungry.
• 11:48
  Speaker 14: I am hunger in America.
• 11:51

  Speaker 5: Think about this. There are five freedoms guaranteed in the
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: First Amendment. Freedom of religion. Freedom of speech. Freedom of
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: the press. Freedom to peaceably assemble. Freedom of religion. Freedom
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: to petition the government. Which freedom can you live without? Fortunately,
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: the First Amendment doesn't make you choose. It protects all
• 12:21

  Speaker 14: When might you be buzzed when you suddenly love everything?
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: You guys, I love this song.
• 12:34
  Speaker 17: I love these nachos.
• 12:37
  Speaker 15: I love our kickball league.
• 12:40
  Speaker 17: I love this guy.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: What's your name?
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: You know what I love?
• 12:44
  Speaker 15: A ride when it's time to head out.
• 12:46
  Speaker 14: If you see a buzzed warning sign, call for a
• 12:49
  Speaker 14: ride when it's time to go home. Buzz driving is
• 12:51
  Speaker 14: drunk driving. A message from NHTSA and the Ad Council.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Here is the sound of thousands of sounds. First thing
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: On this tense day morning, thank you for letting us
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: be of surgeon to you. Maureen writes in to JT
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: in the morning radio at gmail.com.
• 13:42
  Speaker 11: L-O-L.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Never heard anyone handle a critic that way. Well, first off,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: he wasn't really criticizing. I didn't take it as criticism.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: I appreciate, though, your thought. These are words that we infer.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: If taking phone calls from you and finding out how
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: the news of the day is impacting you is being voyeuristic.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Guilty as charged. What am I supposed to say? No,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I didn't do it. How is anything that we discuss
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: in the news going to have any gravity if I'm
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: out there saying, no, I'm a regular Joe, just like
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: I'd like to think I am. I don't sit here
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: and pontificate about multiple PhD or legal degrees or bar
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: association memberships or think tank, this, that, or the other thing.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I will humble brag a little bit just to
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: establish credibility on a subject. And most of it is
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: because I know people who know things and I try
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: to absorb that knowledge. It's what we used to call
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: in the world education. But there are people, if you
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: don't have expertise in a field, and I can say
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: a bridge is not attractive. I can say a bridge
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: is ugly without having to have an engineering degree from
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Cooper Union. I can say something is not aesthetically appealing.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: I can't sit there and say, I think it's going
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: to fall down in a year. But then again, sometimes
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: you don't have to. I think of a famous moment
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: in my childhood, just as maybe about five years or
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: so outside of New York City's bankruptcy, a fellow, and
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I remember the front page picture, the photograph, it was
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: on the New York Daily News, a fellow from the
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Department of Transportation put his hand through what was supposed
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: to be a girder underneath one of the 59th Street Bridge.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: And the girder appeared to be, you know, solid because
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: it had been painted and painted and painted some more
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: and painted some more. Unfortunately, what they never did is
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: clean the pigeon guano off of it. So what was
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: ostensibly holding this bridge up were 20 or 30 layers
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: of paint and the remnants of a girder that this
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: fellow from the Department of Transportation was able to put
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: his hand through. And I remember the picture thinking, oh
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: my God, I drive over that bridge all the time.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: So I don't need to be an engineer to know
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: that that's not good. I actually did get to know
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: that fellow later on in life. He was the president
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: of our local chamber of commerce through several wandering travel paths.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: We wound up crossing paths. I said, you're that guy?
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Oh my God, you're that guy? I mean, the silly
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: things that are celebrity in our minds. But I remember
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: that photograph thinking, And he just put his fist right
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: through the girder like it was nothing. Because nobody had
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: bothered to clean the corrosive pigeon guano off the girder
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: before they painted it. Because, hey, I'm just a city
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: worker and I get paid whether the bridge stays up
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: or not. And they would just paint over it so
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: they could get done and get home. And nobody was
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: checking because the city and the state were teetering on bankruptcy.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: So they didn't have a lot of staff. And these
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: girders had rotted away underneath these bridges. So I don't
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: need an engineering degree to say, that's a problem. I
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: don't need to have ever been an ambassador to a
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: foreign land. I know a few of them. Nor do
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: I have to be a presidential appointee, though I have
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: known a few of them. To know that your associations,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: especially when you're involved with somebody like Donald Trump, you
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: have to be buttoned up. You can't be slapdash. And
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: if there's anything Kimberly Guilfoyle is probably guilty of, it's
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: being a little less than, a little sloppy in how
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: she managed her connections. And it's easy to do. I'm
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: not saying she's a bad human being. We all fall
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: prey to it. We all get out over our skis.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: We all forget to call somebody. We lose connection with
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: people that we used to be tight with. But when
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: you're in a political world, your relationships are your stock
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: and trade. And if somebody like this.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Fellow from Kentucky who's apparently a huge donor to the
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Republican Party, if you're not making sure that he is
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: satisfied with the work that's being done after giving a fortune,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: then you're going to go down in flames because that's
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: That's just customer service. If you want to apply something
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: that comes to your world, my world, it's customer service.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: It's client relations. I talk to a lot of folks.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: that sponsor this radio program as much as I can.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: We've been having issues with our flagship station's transmitter tower,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: as in we've had to move from one to another,
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: which isn't as easy as you'd think it would be.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: And so I've been spending a lot of time with
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: people who aren't who are expecting me to pay them
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: money instead of them paying us money. But you have
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: to tend those relationships. That's the analogy. If you learn
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: anything from any of these stories, and it's especially true
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: when you're in a controversial position. I remember, I forget
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: which talk show host it was. Was it Hannity? Hannity
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: is famous for saying that he pays people All the taxes.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Every time somebody says, well, you got this deduction. No,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: don't take the deduction. Don't take the deduction because I
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: don't want some guy auditing me later because of my
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: position in the community. You have to be. And you
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: can say it's not fair or not, but if you're
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: in a controversial position or a position that somebody might
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: want to do you damage, you have to be 10
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: times more particular. There was a disc jockey who was
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: running for state senate. It was a music disc jockey.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: It wasn't even a talk show host. And apparently he
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: made a pass at one of the radio station interns
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: to be completely stereotypical in the back of a van.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: That was her allegation. He got her in the back
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: of the van and made a pass at her. It
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: completely undid his state senate run. Never turned out to
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: be true outside of the fact that nobody could testify
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: that he wasn't in the back of the van with her.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: But they had been working together. So you see what
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: I mean? If you're going to be in a position
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: where the slings and arrows are ever going to be
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: pointed at you, you've got to be really good at
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: customer relations, client relations. And maybe that was.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch. And nitric
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,

  Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: this morning, breaking down what went on last night. And
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: it was actually, you go to some of these places,
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Associated Press and some of these news sites, and you
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: realize just how much of a slow news day it
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: actually was. Everything was an opinion piece. Everything is, this
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: might happen in Iran if these three things happen. I'm like,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: this is what's passing for news today? And I'm not
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: even talking about the commentary posts. This is what's supposed
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: to be the straight-up news wires. So a classically slow
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: News Tuesday leading us into this. Tedstee, I guess everyone
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: was busy covering Kimberly Guilfoyle for some reason. We'll get
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: to you at 434-882-7000. 4217 to find out how the
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: news of the day is impacting you where you are.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: But Joel and James, our friend from jcsgold.com, tell us
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: how gold and silver markets are behaving. They bounced back
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: a little bit over the weekend, it seemed. James, how
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: are you doing? And I hope you had a good
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Columbus Day weekend.
• 29:33
  Speaker 12: I'm going to stay weekend with the family.
• 29:37
  Speaker 15: So that was nice.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: Um, back at shipping.
• 29:40
  Speaker 12: Out packages for JCS gold this morning. Uh, it looks
• 29:43
  Speaker 12: like a lot of our clients took advantage of the
• 29:46
  Speaker 12: cheaper prices on gold and silver over the weekend. So
• 29:49
  Speaker 12: we're really taking a dip down 1% to $ 58 and
• 29:50
  Speaker 12: 53 cents. And, uh, Gold down about a half a percent,
• 29:57
  Speaker 12: down $ 19 to $ 4, 141. Gold really has been resilient and
• 30:01
  Speaker 12: holding up above that $ 4, 100 level comfortably here at $ 4, 141.
• 30:08
  Speaker 12: But silver, definitely a really great buy at the moment.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: And it's going to pop back up, it seems, there.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: And the trend has been coming down, I guess, for
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: almost two weeks now, James. Am I right?
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, a little bit.
• 30:24
  Speaker 12: Silver really, after its breakout and that kind of stalled,
• 30:28
  Speaker 12: silver really has started to kind of break down over
• 30:32
  Speaker 12: the past two weeks, not really holding in its sideways
• 30:35
  Speaker 12: channel that it developed for about a solid two months
• 30:39
  Speaker 12: there at.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: The end of the summer.
• 30:40
  Speaker 12: Silver really You know, stuck in this channel, had a
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: little breakout, but now the selling pressure has come down. But,
• 30:47
  Speaker 12: you know, China is still buying like crazy. You know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 12: China is buying as much gold and silver as they can.
• 30:55
  Speaker 12: Silver is needed in electric cars and solar panels. You know,
• 30:57
  Speaker 12: it's the same story with silver over and over again,
• 31:00
  Speaker 12: that nothing has changed with its industrial uses. it's still
• 31:05
  Speaker 12: a high demand metal and there is an above ground
• 31:08
  Speaker 12: shortage of it. And a lot of people are seeing
• 31:10
  Speaker 12: that as a great buying opportunity at these discounted prices.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: I like that turn of a phrase. There's, there is
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: an above ground shortage of it. We don't know if
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: there's a short of it coming up, but you know,
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: I know we're about a month removed from the last
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: fed meeting. And I think they're supposed to meet at
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: the end of this month. Is there, is that where
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: some of this trepidation in the gold and silver market
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: may be coming from if, If interest rates go up
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: again or what they're doing about inflation?
• 31:40
  Speaker 12: Yeah, that's a historical correlation with gold and silver and
• 31:43
  Speaker 12: interest rates is when they start raising rates, then the
• 31:46
  Speaker 12: metals typically do go down, at least at first. And
• 31:50
  Speaker 12: then it takes a little bit for them to stabilize
• 31:52
  Speaker 12: and come back up. So, yeah, that is completely to
• 31:57
  Speaker 12: be expected that if they continue to raise rates, Be
• 32:00
  Speaker 12: on the lookout with that, with price action there on
• 32:04
  Speaker 12: gold and silver. But, yeah, they are definitely correlated.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate it, James. You have a great morning, sir,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: and thanks for everything you guys do. Call them. This
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: is a family business. This is not out there trying
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: to make a quota or upsell you to impress their bosses.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: They are the bosses at jcsgold.com, customer service the way
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: it's supposed to be. at 434-979-COIN. James, have a great morning, sir.
• 32:31
  Speaker 23: Thanks, Joe.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: You too. Joel was hanging on the line with us.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: Tell us how the news of the day is impacting
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: him this morning. Good morning, Joel. What's going on?
• 32:41
  Speaker 13: Good morning, Joe. Well, it's cooler here. It's actually 54
• 32:45
  Speaker 13: in the morning.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: Well, the high desert is weird like that sometimes. I
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: remember I was at Consumer Electronics Show, which is traditionally
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: in January, in lost wages. And I walked out of
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: the Strat. That's that big tower. It looks like the
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: CN Tower in Toronto. I went into the Strat and
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: I was walking over to the convention center. And I
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: was on the phone with my wife, who was back
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: here in Virginia. And she said, yeah, it's snowing this morning.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: I said, funny, it's snowing here, too. It was just
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: snowing like crazy in Las Vegas. It was all gone
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: by the time the sun came out and we got
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: back up into the 60s. But, yeah, high desert can
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: get really cold at night. Interesting.
• 33:31
  Speaker 13: Yeah, because it's been 130 days of above 180. one
• 33:37
  Speaker 13: or 103. And that ended around two days ago. And
• 33:39
  Speaker 13: everybody around here, all the locals, as we would say,
• 33:42
  Speaker 13: since I'm, since I'm green, I'm green here. They would say, uh,
• 33:46
  Speaker 13: they would go, well, uh, Oh, it's going to even
• 33:49
  Speaker 13: get nicer.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad. So what's the derisive nickname for somebody
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: who's just moved to that part of Arizona, every, every community.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: And don't, don't look at the radio. Don't you all
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: shake your heads. Every community has a derisive term for somebody. It's, it's, uh,
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Commonly I've heard from here versus come here is one
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: of them. Cape Cod refers to people who didn't get
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: off the Mayflower in Provincetown as washershores. So everybody's got
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: a nickname for somebody. Are you rattlesnake fodder? I have
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: no idea.
• 34:27
  Speaker 13: You'll have to have any of the research to look
• 34:30
  Speaker 13: that up.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Tenderfoot or something like that. Anyway, so what is on
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: your mind then?
• 34:36
  Speaker 13: Well, I'm going to make it simple but complicated. So
• 34:43
  Speaker 13: everything is about trust, right? So let's take Pope Leo.
• 34:47
  Speaker 13: He just had surgery, a lobectomy. That takes away a
• 34:51
  Speaker 13: percentage of your lung, plus who knows if all the
• 34:55
  Speaker 13: cancer is gone, but he's putting his trust in the
• 34:58
  Speaker 13: people's hands, the surgeons, the nurses, the radiologists, the he
• 35:05
  Speaker 13: mocks the people that study the blood and all that.
• 35:09
  Speaker 13: But the main thing is he's putting his trust in
• 35:12
  Speaker 13: God and the faith in God and the people that
• 35:15
  Speaker 13: are all surrounding him and saying, hey, these people better,
• 35:19
  Speaker 13: you know, they have their expertise, just like you're talking
• 35:22
  Speaker 13: about your experiences. And I think those are the things
• 35:26
  Speaker 13: that people don't look at. They want that short answer.
• 35:29
  Speaker 13: They want that quick answer. They want that fixed. But
• 35:32
  Speaker 13: in his case, And, you know, you've been through cancer
• 35:36
  Speaker 13: treatment and I've been through things with myself where I shouldn't,
• 35:40
  Speaker 13: you know, things where I've.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Made it through.
• 35:42
  Speaker 13: But it's just we want we you go to a restaurant,
• 35:46
  Speaker 13: you hope, man, I hope they wash everything.
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: I hope they're clean.
• 35:49
  Speaker 10: I hope.
• 35:50
  Speaker 13: But there's a certain percentage of trust that I think
• 35:53
  Speaker 13: is being lost.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now you've really ruined my next lunch meeting. I'm like,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You know, I know people who won't
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: even buy eggs at the farm because they don't know
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: it's clean. Believe it or not, they'll only trust eggs
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: from the grocery store because they figure it's gone through
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: a process and it's been cleaned and there's no dirt
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: on the shells or anything like that. But yeah, it is.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: It's a matter of trust. And this is part of
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: what I was saying earlier about this story out of Britain. Oh,
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: we've discovered Russian disinformation in the Brexit vote. And all
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: this disinformation stuff and all this stuff comes down to
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: one thing. We are immune to it if we know
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: each other. If somebody says, hey, Joe, did you know
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: this guy Joel in Arizona did thus and such, I'd say, now,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: hold on a second here. I know Joel, and he
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't strike me as a cat burglar or whatever, you know,
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: they might say about you. So, yeah, it's we have
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: allowed it to happen to us by siloing ourselves off.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: There is a malpractice in the narrative media. And I've
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: talked about this over time. The folks in my profession,
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: because the money is better to be a spokesperson for
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: a pharmaceutical company or a political campaign, you name it,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: they sell themselves out for that. Somebody was posting a
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: derisive thing about the new press secretary that said that
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: whenever she would go on Fox News as a commentator,
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: She wanted to make sure it was apparently there is
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: a known period of time where Donald Trump watches TV.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: And she wanted Donald Trump to see her on TV.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: So she would only do a period, supposedly. I mean,
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: these are the derisions that they write about.

  Speaker 6: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: I'm Dr.
• 39:14
  Speaker 22: Mitch.
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
• 39:24
  Speaker 6: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation has antioxidant
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: properties and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer or
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: at least slow the spread of cancer and in many
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

• 40:05
  Speaker 23: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
• 40:10
  Speaker 23: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
• 40:13
  Speaker 23: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
• 40:17
  Speaker 23: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 40:21
  Speaker 23: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
• 40:26
  Speaker 23: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
• 40:29
  Speaker 23: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
• 40:33
  Speaker 23: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
• 40:38
  Speaker 23: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
• 40:43
  Speaker 23: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
• 40:46
  Speaker 23: enforcement arm the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov.
• 40:54
  Speaker 23: Share this information with your friends and family.
• 40:59
  Speaker 15: Hi, everybody.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Who work hard to provide for their young.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: Or penguins, who travel up to 500 miles to secure
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: food for their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: they also perform life-saving work every day. Dogs keep us
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society.
• 41:46
  Speaker 15: And help those in need.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.

  Speaker 5: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 42:01
  Speaker 13: Oh yeah? Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 42:04
  Speaker 11: And now a speech.
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 42:10
  Speaker 15: Heart and brain.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: Who's with me?
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: call me a ride.
• 42:19
  Speaker 16: Love that guy.
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: Me too.
• 42:21
  Speaker 14: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 42:24
  Speaker 14: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 42:29
  Speaker 20: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 42:31
  Speaker 20: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 42:35
  Speaker 20: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 42:40
  Speaker 20: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 42:42
  Speaker 20: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 42:46
  Speaker 20: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 42:52
  Speaker 20: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 42:55
  Speaker 20: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 42:59
  Speaker 20: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 43:01
  Speaker 20: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 43:04
  Speaker 20: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 43:08
  Speaker 20: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 43:11
  Speaker 20: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
• 43:15
  Speaker 20: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving
• 43:18
  Speaker 20: money by reducing your energy waste, check out ftc.gov slash green.

  Speaker 20: protection agency.
• 43:30
  Speaker 21: As a family member or friend, you may be the
• 43:32
  Speaker 21: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 43:35
  Speaker 21: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
• 43:41
  Speaker 21: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
• 43:44
  Speaker 14: But help is available.
• 43:46
  Speaker 10: Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories at maketheconnection.net and learn
• 43:51
  Speaker 10: how you can support the veterans in your life. Treatment works.
• 43:56
  Speaker 10: Recovery is possible.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: This Ted Steve morning, Charles writes in, is it international
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: talk like a Somali pirate day? I don't believe company-wide
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: we used to have a talk like a pirate day.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: We all wound up talking, you know, sounding like... Barbosa
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: from Pirates. I don't know what a Somali pirate per
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: se sounds like outside of trying to sound like Ilhan Omar.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: And the subtext of what's being investigated, and of course
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: she's out there saying this is Trump going after her
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: politically because she's not doing what he wants her to do,
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: whatever it may be. And it immediately is designed to
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: take your eyes off of all of the fraud in Minnesota,
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: most of it connected to the Somali immigrant community. And
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: I ask you, if you found hundreds of different instances
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: of fraud all being connected to white Anglo-Saxon Protestants, church
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: groups from around Georgia and Alabama all connected to fraud
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: in aid programs that they were supposedly administrating. You think
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: this would make the news headlines? Do you think you'd
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: be able to shake the stink off of that?
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: And I know that you say, well, Joe, you can't
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: make a moral equivalency. Why not?
• 46:18
  Speaker 21: Not.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Because to acknowledge that the Somali community of Minnesota is
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: different than the white Anglo-Saxon Protestants of Georgia and Alabama
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: is to be patently racist. Sorry, Harry Rogers. I mean,
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: Ibram Kendi, whatever he's calling himself these days. The only
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: way to be anti-racist is to not be racist. And
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: that is not judging somebody simply by the color of
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: their skin or the country of their origin. I mean,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: do I think all Somalis lie on their citizenship papers
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: to make it seem like they're a minor so that
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: they can just be granted automatic citizenship without having to
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: go through? That's the allegation. That's the allegation and what
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: they're looking into. And you know where this comes from?
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: This ties into our last segment. We were talking about
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: customer service and Kimberly Guilfoyle. If anything, Ilhan Omar is
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: getting done on the same skewer that brought down Kimberly Guilfoyle.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: She maltreated enough staffers to get at least a couple
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: of whistleblowers out there saying, Hey, by the way, she's
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: older than her documents say she is. You should look
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: at the year that she, and I believe it's that,
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: you know, she claims she was born in 1981. When
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: in reality, it was 82 years. which would mean she
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: was over 18, which means she would have to go
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: through the regular citizenship matters. What is it with this
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: woman and getting citizenship to the United States? And maybe
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: in order to marry a family member, you need to
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: be under 18. I don't know what all the rules
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: are in every community.
• 48:33
  Speaker 7: What?
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: Too soon? But the FBI is looking into this. Now,
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: do you think there will be orange jumpsuits involved? I don't.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: Because this story is going to blow up in someone's face.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: If this is the angle that the Department of Justice
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: is looking into and Ilhan Omar again trying to break
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: the law, in order to get citizenship. She's just going
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: to turn around and use it to sanctify herself as
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: just another victim of America's bad immigration policy, which, by
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: the way, she's been in office 10 years and could
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: have done something about. But I'm sorry. Pedantic of me
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: to insist that somebody who holds a representative office might. Oh,
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know. tried to get a bill passed fixing
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: whatever's broken in our immigration system. And in all of
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: these stories of all of the borders, all of the
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: crossings and all of the non-citizens committing all of these crimes,
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: we told you yesterday about the 52,000 some odd crimes,
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: 100 plus rapes, murders, all committed by non-citizens to the
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: United States who, in their defense, might have thought, hey,
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: it's legal in my country to do this. Why isn't
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: it legal in this country? Nobody told me. She will
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: use this as a cudgel. And it's interesting, the whole
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: bit with her, you know, brother, half-brother, whatever, She's never
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: used that, which tells me it's true. Because if it
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: wasn't true, she would have used it to create some
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: gravitas regarding immigration issues. But all, and I mean all,
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: of it keeps you from looking at the corruption. So
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: while she... postures and makes social media posts. She is
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: loving every minute of this because she believes that if
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: she drags her particular version of Ken Starr down the
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: alley of her particular type of blue dress, the American
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: people will be busy talking about her age and or
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: marital status at the time of her immigration and will
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: stop talking about the corruption that has cost the country
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: hundreds of millions of dollars that have vanished overseas into
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: bank accounts and never, not once, never made it to
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: the people who needed it at the leering centers of Minnesota.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: Just like Bill Clinton skated on whitewater by allowing everyone
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: to talk about the devil in the blue dress, blue dress,
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: blue dress, devil with the blue dress on, have mercy.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Ilhan Omar will be more than happy to talk about
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: faking her immigration records and or marrying family members in
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: order to circumvent what she'll wind up calling an unfair,
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: Oprah Winfrey will interview her And we will completely forget,
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: or at least her hope is that we will completely forget,
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: the corruption and all the money that was stolen. Regardless
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: of the ideology, the theology, or any other ologies involved
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: with who did the stealing, it's the stealing, stupid.
• 52:51
  Speaker 19: Crime across the country is at an all-time high. It
• 52:54
  Speaker 19: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
• 52:57
  Speaker 19: We don't want the feeling of being unprotected and vulnerable.
