- 0:51Speaker 3: I think we're going to.
- 0:52Speaker 2: Okay. Can we? Russell said no. He's not going to
- 0:56Speaker 2: do it.
- 0:56Speaker 3: No. That was a way to start the show with
- 0:58Speaker 3: a real teamwork kind of thing.
- 1:01Speaker 2: 100% no. Russell, at the beginning of his show, does
- 1:05Speaker 2: the Robin Williams, like, good morning Vietnam thing. But he
- 1:08Speaker 2: does it for Houston.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Yeah.

- 1:10Speaker 3: Good morning.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Vietnam. Right, there you go.
- 1:13Speaker 3: That was a great movie.
- 1:14Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a great movie. A lot of things
- 1:17Speaker 2: are going on. A lot of things to talk about today.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Wayne Dolcefino. Craig Collins.
- 1:21Speaker 3: I'm back. You're back. You know what? Here, you see
- 1:25Speaker 3: restrooms that say family restrooms, right?
- 1:27Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:28Speaker 3: In California, where I was.
- 1:30Speaker 5: Uh-huh.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Apparently in a purple part of the state, I'm told,
- 1:35Speaker 3: there were all-gender bathrooms.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't like that.
- 1:38Speaker 3: And I don't know how many genders, how many do
- 1:41Speaker 3: you need? There's like two, right? Why do you need
- 1:44Speaker 3: like all gender?
- 1:46Speaker 2: In California, I don't know if there are two, to
- 1:48Speaker 2: be honest with you. I thought there were more than
- 1:49Speaker 2: two there.
- 1:49Speaker 3: I think there's 18.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah, they thought there were 100.
- 1:52Speaker 3: I know Tallarico says there are six, but I believe
- 1:54Speaker 3: there are 18 genders. And perhaps later this morning I will. Yeah.
- 1:59Speaker 3: Identify them.
- 2:00Speaker 2: I believe there are two and then a bunch of
- 2:02Speaker 2: mental illness. That's what I believe exists.
- 2:05Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I sort of agree with you. And I
- 2:08Speaker 3: try to be sympathetic.
- 2:09Speaker 2: No, I know. Well, it's funny because there's sympathy and
- 2:12Speaker 2: then there's, I think, harm. And sometimes I think sympathy
- 2:15Speaker 2: can also cause harm if you placate people that might
- 2:19Speaker 2: not be struggling emotionally. in a way where placating them
- 2:22Speaker 2: makes them better, it makes them worse. Like, you have
- 2:24Speaker 2: to admit that there's a problem sometimes, is my opinion,
- 2:26Speaker 2: a lot of the time.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Well, some people are just screwed up. I don't know,
- 2:28Speaker 3: breaking news.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Yeah, breaking news, yeah.
- 2:30Speaker 3: A lot of us. Or some psychologically messed up people.
- 2:33Speaker 3: And look, I get it. You know, you're born a
- 2:36Speaker 3: certain way, and you don't feel the same way as
- 2:40Speaker 3: other people. Yeah. You know, just keep it to yourself.
- 2:42Speaker 3: I'm fine. I just.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Wait a minute.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Go find other people that feel the same way and
- 2:48Speaker 3: hang out with them. I just don't want to know. Okay.
- 2:51Speaker 2: We had a caller call in last week for the
- 2:54Speaker 2: first day of the show and say that he wanted
- 2:55Speaker 2: to make a bumper sticker for us.
- 2:57Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:57Speaker 2: And he called in again on, I think, Wednesday or
- 2:59Speaker 2: Thursday when you weren't here, and he still wants to
- 3:00Speaker 2: do it.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Okay.
- 3:01Speaker 2: I think just keep it to yourself is a much
- 3:04Speaker 2: better bumper sticker idea. For the Wayne and Greg show
- 3:07Speaker 2: than anything I've.
- 3:08Speaker 3: Heard so far. Leave me alone.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Just keep it to yourself. Listen to KSEV Radio.
- 3:11Speaker 3: You know, I will say this morning I woke up and,
- 3:15Speaker 3: by the way, I lost my remote to my TV.
- 3:17Speaker 3: And so it literally turned on on One American News,
- 3:22Speaker 3: which I don't really watch. I'll be honest with you.
- 3:25Speaker 3: I don't watch that. But it was on this morning
- 3:28Speaker 3: and it literally blared.
- 3:31Speaker 2: I don't know. That's no good.
- 3:32Speaker 3: I couldn't turn it off.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:34Speaker 3: And so this morning I like I opened my door
- 3:36Speaker 3: and you could hear my TV like in the entire neighborhood.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Is it still on right now?
- 3:43Speaker 3: It is. OK.
- 3:43Speaker 7: All right.
- 3:44Speaker 3: Good.
- 3:44Speaker 2: That's a good strategy. You can unplug it. You can
- 3:47Speaker 2: unplug it. That'll be that'll work.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Oh, you can.
- 3:49Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 3:49Speaker 3: I never even realized that.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 3:51Speaker 2: That's a way to get it to turn off.
- 3:53Speaker 3: Good idea.
- 3:54Speaker 2: I wanted to ask you about all the investigating that
- 3:57Speaker 2: you've been doing. I know you can't talk about stuff
- 3:58Speaker 2: that's not public, but I got to tell you. Sure,
- 4:01Speaker 2: I can.
- 4:01Speaker 3: I can say anything I want.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing that's cool to me. I've been
- 4:04Speaker 2: following your social media account, and, man, do you do
- 4:07Speaker 2: a lot of things in a given week. Like, when
- 4:09Speaker 2: you're not here— I can see what Wayne is up
- 4:11Speaker 2: to because your social media account has three, four, five
- 4:15Speaker 2: things posting to it. It feels like every day.
- 4:17Speaker 3: It's, I got to tell you, I'm, I'm finding it
- 4:20Speaker 3: harder though. And I guess there's an age thing. I'm
- 4:23Speaker 3: finding it harder to keep.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Up with all this stuff.
- 4:25Speaker 3: Well, but even in the height of television time, when
- 4:29Speaker 3: I would work like all for months on sweep stories,
- 4:34Speaker 3: you know, February, May, November.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Right. Whatever. And, I would work three, maybe four investigations. Oh, wow.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Literally now, I think we have 30 that are going
- 4:47Speaker 3: on a different, you know, they're cooking. You know, investigations
- 4:51Speaker 3: are kind of like cooking, right? It's a cooking show.
- 4:54Speaker 3: And so, like, you have different things at different temperatures
- 4:57Speaker 3: doing different things. It's the only way to keep up.
- 4:59Speaker 2: They're not all slow. They're not all slow cooking. Some
- 5:01Speaker 2: of them cook very quickly.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Some, like in Corpus Christi, where I've been involved. Yeah, yeah.
- 5:07Speaker 3: You can't keep up with the news. There's like some
- 5:11Speaker 3: dumb butt thing every day that affects it. There's legal
- 5:15Speaker 3: fights going on. There's political fights going on. There's personal
- 5:20Speaker 3: nastiness going on. And I tend to get sucked into
- 5:23Speaker 3: personal nastiness. I enjoy a little personal nastiness. It happens, yeah.
- 5:29Speaker 3: I do.
- 5:30Speaker 2: What's wrong with that?
- 5:30Speaker 3: I like to fight. And my guys are always telling me,
- 5:33Speaker 3: you know, why are you? Because I'm Trumping. I'm Trumpian
- 5:36Speaker 3: in that way. I will get in a fight with anybody,
- 5:38Speaker 3: like the lowest form of scum.
- 5:42Speaker 2: That makes it must watch, though. To me, I think
- 5:45Speaker 2: there is something about watching the fight part because there
- 5:49Speaker 2: are a lot of us that live through the people
- 5:50Speaker 2: we watch and whatever it is we watch, right? And
- 5:52Speaker 2: that's probably been true a long time.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 5:54Speaker 2: And if I'm not the type of person that's going
- 5:56Speaker 2: to go run up and confront my politician that I'm
- 5:59Speaker 2: mad at, I want you to do it. And I'm
- 6:02Speaker 2: only really going to watch the video if you're doing
- 6:04Speaker 2: the thing that I'm not. Like, I could go up
- 6:06Speaker 2: and be nice and say things to them. You got
- 6:08Speaker 2: to go up there and grill them.
- 6:09Speaker 3: But I find, you know, with the social media world,
- 6:13Speaker 3: because there are such freak shows. I mean, we should
- 6:16Speaker 3: admit that.
- 6:17Speaker 2: There are.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Of course there are. A lot of the people we're
- 6:19Speaker 3: watching every day on social media are freaks.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Yes.
- 6:22Speaker 7: Right?
- 6:22Speaker 3: Yes. And I really am not a freak. Now, I'm
- 6:26Speaker 3: a jerk. And I will be a smart. You know what?
- 6:30Speaker 3: And I will... I will challenge people, but I'm not
- 6:35Speaker 3: the guy that generally goes up and says something outrageous
- 6:39Speaker 3: just to spark a reaction. I am– what's the word?
- 6:45Speaker 3: But people think I am. Yeah. And I'm really not.
- 6:49Speaker 3: I mean, look, I've said this before. I'm a golden
- 6:52Speaker 3: rule guy, right? You're cool to me. I'm cool to you.
- 6:54Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 6:55Speaker 5: Right?
- 6:56Speaker 3: We may not agree. Sometimes there are legitimate shades of
- 7:00Speaker 3: policy differences. Mm-hmm. By the way, good job, military.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Last night. Yeah.
- 7:05Speaker 2: The Iran strikes.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, I don't know why everyone is so freaked
- 7:11Speaker 3: out about it. It's going fine.
- 7:14Speaker 9: Right?
- 7:14Speaker 3: It's going fine.
- 7:15Speaker 2: I think it's going fine. I would have preferred it
- 7:17Speaker 2: to be quicker. But we shouldn't have stopped.
- 7:21Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 7:21Speaker 2: That was an unrealistic expectation when you realize who the
- 7:23Speaker 2: enemy is and what the enemy does and how they behave.
- 7:26Speaker 2: They're not going to negotiate no matter how much damage
- 7:29Speaker 2: we do. So I hope eventually that changes, but that's
- 7:32Speaker 2: why it's not.
- 7:33Speaker 3: Do you think it's going to change?
- 7:35Speaker 2: What?
- 7:35Speaker 3: Those crazy freak show religious zealot nuts are going to
- 7:41Speaker 3: change and say, OK, we're done. We'll stop being terrorists.
- 7:45Speaker 2: I think you might have to kill some more of them.
- 7:47Speaker 2: But I think at some point somebody that gets the
- 7:50Speaker 2: power sits there and goes, I don't want to be killed.
- 7:52Speaker 2: And then that guy changes.
- 7:54Speaker 3: No, I think there are guys in there. I think
- 7:56Speaker 3: they're political group.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:59Speaker 3: It's fine. Like, okay, we're done here.
- 8:01Speaker 2: You're right.
- 8:01Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Let's move on.
- 8:03Speaker 3: We don't have to kill any more Americans for a while.
- 8:05Speaker 3: I think they're over that.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:06Speaker 3: The problem is when people believe that their religion, whatever
- 8:13Speaker 3: religion it is, when people believe their religion gives them
- 8:16Speaker 3: the basis for killing people who don't believe in their religion. Yeah.
- 8:21Speaker 3: I don't know how that ever changes. I mean, you
- 8:24Speaker 3: could say– okay, we're not going to do this anymore,
- 8:27Speaker 3: but do you really believe in their heart of hearts?
- 8:30Speaker 3: They don't hate our guts.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Well, they definitely hate our guts.
- 8:34Speaker 3: But when someone hates your guts, what's the point?
- 8:38Speaker 2: The biggest thing that I think could change, and it
- 8:42Speaker 2: changes in two phases, is the first part is that
- 8:45Speaker 2: you stop the killing because the people are afraid they're
- 8:47Speaker 2: going to get killed. So at some point, they put
- 8:49Speaker 2: down their swords, and they go, all right, we don't
- 8:51Speaker 2: want to get killed. You've killed enough of us. Let's
- 8:53Speaker 2: see what happens. And then over time, hopefully a short
- 8:56Speaker 2: amount of time, they benefit from not harming us. The
- 9:00Speaker 2: whole allowing sanctions to go away thing and improving the
- 9:03Speaker 2: economy and hoping that leadership in Iran allows the human
- 9:07Speaker 2: beings that live there. to live better lives, which they
- 9:10Speaker 2: don't do.
- 9:10Speaker 5: I know.
- 9:10Speaker 2: I know you're shaking it. Well, kill more people. I
- 9:13Speaker 2: think we should just kill more people. The leadership has
- 9:16Speaker 2: to keep getting changed over.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Can I vote? Yeah.
- 9:19Speaker 2: I vote with you.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Yeah, let's kill some more people.
- 9:21Speaker 2: But there have to be some leaders somewhere, people who
- 9:24Speaker 2: aren't leading yet but in the background that could be
- 9:27Speaker 2: thrust into power that eventually say, you know what? Let's
- 9:30Speaker 2: go a different road.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Yeah, but those people are coming up in a system
- 9:35Speaker 3: that doesn't.
- 9:36Speaker 2: I know.
- 9:37Speaker 3: I understand. You're going to be like the traitor to
- 9:40Speaker 3: all the zealots.
- 9:41Speaker 2: But that's why once they get power and they change it,
- 9:45Speaker 2: they benefit from the change, and then they realize they're
- 9:48Speaker 2: making a better decision.
- 9:49Speaker 3: Yeah, but you don't think that that has sort of— the
- 9:52Speaker 3: people there know that?
- 9:54Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 9:55Speaker 3: The political people know this is not a good play Yeah.
- 9:59Speaker 3: I don't know because– I mean the economy is like–
- 10:00Speaker 3: their money is like– I went to Peru once years ago.
- 10:04Speaker 3: Speaking of Iran, but I went to Peru once. It
- 10:06Speaker 3: was 30 years ago, and their money was like worthless.
- 10:10Speaker 3: Even like the little begging kids didn't want their money. Yeah.
- 10:14Speaker 3: They didn't want it.
- 10:15Speaker 2: They were like, no, no, don't give me any pervians.
- 10:17Speaker 3: You get a stack of money like four inches high
- 10:19Speaker 3: and it was like $ 8. And you're going, this is
- 10:22Speaker 3: really working out good for them.
- 10:24Speaker 2: I think what you're saying is that lived experience is
- 10:27Speaker 2: the absolute arbiter to how people behave, and it is.
- 10:30Speaker 2: And I think their lived experience has to change because
- 10:32Speaker 2: someone within that system– has to be powerful enough to
- 10:36Speaker 2: allow them to have their lives improve. The United States
- 10:40Speaker 2: would be willing to do that. We'd be a willing
- 10:43Speaker 2: conduit to an improved Iran.
- 10:44Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely.
- 10:45Speaker 2: But only if Iran acts the way we want them
- 10:47Speaker 2: to act, which right now there's too many defiant leaders.
- 10:50Speaker 2: You have to keep Thanos-ing new people into power.
- 10:53Speaker 3: But is that part of our problem, is that we
- 10:56Speaker 3: want people to act like normal people. Sure. And some
- 11:01Speaker 3: people just aren't normal people.
- 11:03Speaker 10: Sure.
- 11:04Speaker 3: I mean, look, You go to Eastern Europe, and they're still, like,
- 11:06Speaker 3: doing World War I over in Ukraine. Those people fight like,
- 11:11Speaker 3: let's just each dig a trench and blow each other up.
- 11:15Speaker 2: I mean, Afghanistan's a good example of that, too, right? Afghanistan,
- 11:18Speaker 2: we wanted change that didn't happen, and now the Taliban's
- 11:20Speaker 2: in control again.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Yeah, and the women, they're loving it over there in Afghanistan.
- 11:24Speaker 3: What a great change.
- 11:27Speaker 2: They are not loving it there. This is KSVB Mornings.

- 13:11Speaker 11: It's Kathy from Baker Mortgage. You know, with all the
- 13:14Speaker 11: scary stuff we've been through, it's still true that timing

- 13:20Speaker 11: don't go looking without a solid pre-approval in hand. And
- 13:23Speaker 11: this includes an application and a detailed discussion about property taxes.
- 13:27Speaker 11: If you didn't have the talk, You know, about property taxes,
- 13:31Speaker 11: you really don't know what you're pre-approved for. That should

- 14:28Speaker 3: we've been talking during the break. Can people see us
- 14:30Speaker 3: during the break?
- 14:31Speaker 2: They cannot see us during the break unless you want
- 14:33Speaker 2: them to.
- 14:34Speaker 3: Okay, because I was cussing a lot.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Oh, they definitely can't hear us.
- 14:37Speaker 3: I was talking about, oh, they can't hear us.
- 14:39Speaker 2: They definitely can't hear us.
- 14:40Speaker 3: Oh, that's a good thing, because I say some stuff
- 14:42Speaker 3: during the break.
- 14:43Speaker 2: Even if I showed us, they still wouldn't hear us.
- 14:45Speaker 2: They'd hear the commercial.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Because I was talking about how much I enjoy war.
- 14:49Speaker 3: I do. I actually, and it's overseas, so it's like
- 14:53Speaker 3: late at night. I enjoy the first days of war.
- 14:57Speaker 3: And I was telling you that I don't understand something.
- 15:00Speaker 3: I see these Iranian officials, like the president, whoever, whatever
- 15:05Speaker 3: his name is. Sounds right. It's close. And I see
- 15:09Speaker 3: them meeting with some other guy. And there's like a
- 15:12Speaker 3: room full of people in a real major ceremony. And
- 15:15Speaker 3: I'm going, why don't we blow that out? Like we
- 15:18Speaker 3: know it's happening. It's live. It's live on Iranian TV.
- 15:23Speaker 3: And we could get a plane there in like six minutes.
- 15:27Speaker 3: Just blow them up.
- 15:28Speaker 2: Every time they do it.
- 15:29Speaker 3: Every time someone raises their head.
- 15:32Speaker 2: Yeah. And blow them up. Yeah, I think that that
- 15:35Speaker 2: would be an effective strategy. So the funny thing to
- 15:38Speaker 2: me is I.
- 15:39Speaker 3: Oh, I don't care if it's effective. I just want
- 15:41Speaker 3: to do it.
- 15:41Speaker 2: But the funny thing to me is I profoundly agree
- 15:43Speaker 2: with you because I think it's what would change this conflict.
- 15:46Speaker 2: I think if every leader that showed their face was
- 15:49Speaker 2: dead in 24 hours, and the U.S. has the ability
- 15:51Speaker 2: to do that, eventually Iran would be like, okay, we'll
- 15:54Speaker 2: do something else. Because there's only so many people in
- 15:57Speaker 2: that umbrella of.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Yeah, the janitor is now the president, right? The guy
- 16:01Speaker 3: that was like feeding... The toilets is the only guy left.
- 16:05Speaker 2: He's going to stand down. When we get to the janitor,
- 16:07Speaker 2: he'll be like, that's fine. You guys do you.
- 16:09Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 16:10Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 16:10Speaker 3: And I don't understand why. Look, I was from the
- 16:14Speaker 3: group of people that thought we stopped too soon. Yeah.
- 16:21Speaker 3: I thought another month. Although I will say this. I
- 16:28Speaker 3: want to audit the Pentagon. Okay.
- 16:31Speaker 2: I think you can grade it that.
- 16:32Speaker 3: No, I really do. There is something wrong with a
- 16:37Speaker 3: country that spends a trillion dollars a year plus on
- 16:42Speaker 3: its military running out of bombs or running out of– whatever.
- 16:47Speaker 3: I don't even know what we're running out of. It
- 16:50Speaker 3: runs out of them in like four weeks.
- 16:52Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 16:52Speaker 3: There's something wrong with that.
- 16:54Speaker 2: You've been in conflict places before, haven't you? Haven't you
- 16:57Speaker 2: been like someone who got sent? CB fought in Afghanistan
- 17:17Speaker 2: and like they wouldn't let him fix an air conditioner.
- 17:19Speaker 2: They're like, oh, if that one broke, throw it out,
- 17:21Speaker 2: get a new one. And like there's just so much
- 17:23Speaker 2: of that that goes on, I think, in the world
- 17:25Speaker 2: of our military. And I think it's at every stage.
- 17:28Speaker 2: So I think the same way they go, this is
- 17:29Speaker 2: not needed. Let's get rid of this. They do the
- 17:31Speaker 2: same thing with ammunition. They do the same thing with everything.
- 17:34Speaker 2: And so I do think that it's and you said
- 17:36Speaker 2: this about government in general. I think when it comes.
- 17:39Speaker 3: To the military... I wouldn't let them run any... I
- 17:40Speaker 3: think government is the most incompetent, inefficient thing ever. But you.
- 17:44Speaker 2: I remember you said last week that you think mostly
- 17:46Speaker 2: it's wasteful. It's more wasteful than fraudulent. It's both, but
- 17:50Speaker 2: it's more one than the other.
- 17:51Speaker 3: Well, you know, I may have changed my mind.
- 17:52Speaker 1: Okay.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Over the weekend.
- 17:53Speaker 2: Okay, cool.
- 17:54Speaker 3: I just see certain things and I say... And I've
- 17:59Speaker 3: seen so much over my career that everyone's got a racket.
- 18:04Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 18:04Speaker 3: It's just a racket. Yeah. Right? And sure... There's helping
- 18:08Speaker 3: your friends, which I understand that people help their friends.
- 18:13Speaker 3: And I could defend that by saying, look, I know
- 18:16Speaker 3: this guy. He's not a scum. So I could understand
- 18:22Speaker 3: the idea of government people wanting to help their friends
- 18:25Speaker 3: because they think their friends aren't going to screw them over.
- 18:27Speaker 3: I get it. But there's so many little rackets, little
- 18:32Speaker 3: deals that people get away with.
- 18:37Speaker 2: You were reporting on a charity recently that was like
- 18:40Speaker 2: fake and made up to be a slush fund for people.
- 18:43Speaker 3: To get money. Oh, okay. So there's a guy in
- 18:46Speaker 3: Fort Bend County. It was in a $ 4 million house.
- 18:49Speaker 3: $ 4 million. Okay. It's a really big house. That's ridiculous.
- 18:52Speaker 3: And it's a charity. And I go like, and then
- 18:55Speaker 3: Fort Bend, the appraisal district there, said, okay, sure. Nobody said,
- 19:01Speaker 3: wait a minute. Why is this $ 4 million house.
- 19:05Speaker 2: Owned by a charity.
- 19:06Speaker 3: Owned by a charity. And what exactly charitable purpose are
- 19:10Speaker 3: they doing? And, like, nobody... And they're just, like, stamping
- 19:14Speaker 3: it at Fort Bend. Okay, no problem. $ 4 million? Oh,
- 19:18Speaker 3: that's cheap. That's $ 108 million.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Yeah, why'd you guys be so shy about this?
- 19:23Speaker 3: Why'd you go crazy? And then they look at another
- 19:25Speaker 3: house that charity owns, and it's, like, $ 900, 000. And they're going, oh, well,
- 19:28Speaker 3: you see, that's better.
- 19:29Speaker 12: Right, right.
- 19:30Speaker 7: And.
- 19:32Speaker 3: They just, even Harris County, which I give a lot
- 19:35Speaker 3: of grief to, the appraisal district in Harris County said, well,
- 19:40Speaker 3: there's something wrong with this. I mean, because like, you know,
- 19:44Speaker 3: a brain, you know, someone with a brain said, I
- 19:47Speaker 3: don't know about this $ 4 million house. For a charity.
- 19:50Speaker 3: I mean, I could see if it was full of
- 19:51Speaker 3: homeless people, right? And you say, you know what? I'm
- 19:54Speaker 3: rich and I'm going to give my $ 4 million house.
- 19:57Speaker 3: But there's no homeless living there. It's the families living there, right?
- 20:01Speaker 3: The person who runs the charity lives there. And when
- 20:04Speaker 3: you trace back the charity, it used to all be
- 20:07Speaker 3: owned by his for-profit company and then they moved it
- 20:10Speaker 3: into a charity. And nobody said... People sometimes say, well,
- 20:14Speaker 3: you're really good at what you do. No, I'm not
- 20:17Speaker 3: really good. It's a $ 4 million house. On what planet
- 20:22Speaker 3: is a $ 4 million house a charity? This is not...
- 20:27Speaker 3: I always tell people it's not brain surgery what I've done.
- 20:30Speaker 2: You would think the charity would want to spend more
- 20:32Speaker 2: of that $ 4 million on whatever their charitable work is
- 20:34Speaker 2: than on the house. You would think that. But I
- 20:36Speaker 2: think what you do quite well that a lot of
- 20:38Speaker 2: people don't is you follow the money trail. Because a
- 20:41Speaker 2: lot of people see a $ 4 million house and a
- 20:43Speaker 2: family living in it, and I don't assume that's a charity.
- 20:46Speaker 2: I assume that's a guy who bought his house that
- 20:48Speaker 2: lives in it.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Who said, hey, let's just call it a charity. Let's
- 20:51Speaker 3: say we help like... Somebody. We help like, you know,
- 20:55Speaker 3: Babies that are, I'm always going to say something rude.
- 20:58Speaker 3: I was going to say retarded babies that I'd get
- 21:00Speaker 3: in trouble. And I didn't mean to do it. I
- 21:03Speaker 3: really didn't. But it was my instinct was to tell
- 21:06Speaker 3: me to say something that used to be okay.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Helping retarded babies.
- 21:09Speaker 3: But we're not okay.
- 21:10Speaker 2: That would be a great charity.
- 21:12Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:13Speaker 2: A $ 4 million mansion full of retarded babies.
- 21:15Speaker 3: I came up with a time when I used to
- 21:17Speaker 3: call Mental Health and Mental Retardation Agency. That was the
- 21:20Speaker 3: name of the agency, right? And nobody said, Let's make
- 21:23Speaker 3: fun of the retarded people. Nobody said that.
- 21:25Speaker 2: Well, when I was a little kid and I called
- 21:27Speaker 2: somebody retarded, like a friend of mine, I wasn't making
- 21:29Speaker 2: fun of a person with an actual disability.
- 21:31Speaker 3: But they likely were.
- 21:33Speaker 2: Yeah, my friend was being an idiot. I told him
- 21:35Speaker 2: he was an idiot at that moment, and that was
- 21:36Speaker 2: the way to do it. I think a lot of
- 21:37Speaker 2: that's gone away. I think more young people are saying
- 21:40Speaker 2: those words again.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Really?
- 21:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that there was a pushback.
- 21:44Speaker 3: See, I don't get that from my staff. My staff's
- 21:46Speaker 3: mostly young. Like 20s young, right? Yeah. Okay.
- 21:51Speaker 2: Because, like, my nephew is 15, and he finds some
- 21:55Speaker 2: of this stuff stupid. And, like, he'll make these jokes now.
- 21:57Speaker 2: And I don't know if it's just him.
- 21:59Speaker 3: You're right. I do think that that age group is
- 22:02Speaker 3: probably starting to look and say, what have we done?
- 22:04Speaker 2: What have people done?
- 22:05Speaker 3: You're idiots.
- 22:06Speaker 2: And especially if you're growing up and you're, like, a
- 22:08Speaker 2: 15-year-old white boy. Like, you think to yourself, man, I'm
- 22:11Speaker 2: the bad guy.
- 22:12Speaker 3: Privilege.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Privilege. I'm the bad guy. Every story, everything you hear
- 22:15Speaker 2: from everybody else, he's the bad guy. He's the person
- 22:17Speaker 2: making the mistakes. And you look at yourself and like,
- 22:19Speaker 2: I thought I was a nice person. I thought I
- 22:21Speaker 2: was a good person. And then you sort of just
- 22:23Speaker 2: organically push back from the stupidity.
- 22:25Speaker 3: No, I think that's right. But I do think that's possible.
- 22:27Speaker 3: But the people that work for me, and I always
- 22:29Speaker 3: talk about them, they don't listen. So it doesn't matter.
- 22:32Speaker 3: They don't listen. Good, good. Young left-wing freaks, they don't listen.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Okay, I was curious.
- 22:38Speaker 3: And I find them to be ridiculously concerned about people's feelings. Sure.
- 22:47Speaker 3: And I don't care.
- 22:50Speaker 2: I also don't. And that that can cause problems. You know,
- 22:53Speaker 2: it's interesting about that, though. They're never going to win
- 22:56Speaker 2: that fight. The thing I'd like to tell a 20
- 22:58Speaker 2: something is that if you care about everyone's feelings, you're
- 23:02Speaker 2: still going to hurt somebody's feelings. And they're going to
- 23:05Speaker 2: think that they're allowed to be mad at you now
- 23:07Speaker 2: because you've opened that Pandora's box to act like feelings
- 23:11Speaker 2: matter in a workplace. And I don't mean that I
- 23:13Speaker 2: can abuse somebody.
- 23:15Speaker 3: I see the way you talk to Russell in the morning.
- 23:18Speaker 3: I came in this morning and you were like berating him.
- 23:21Speaker 2: Slapping him around.
- 23:22Speaker 3: You were slapping him around.
- 23:23Speaker 2: You were berating him. No, Russell's bigger than me. I'm
- 23:27Speaker 2: not going to slap him around. But I'll say this,
- 23:29Speaker 2: and I'll say this just very plainly and quickly.
- 23:32Speaker 3: Okay.
- 23:32Speaker 2: I think that the people that try the hardest are
- 23:36Speaker 2: still failing, and then they get mad that they're failing
- 23:39Speaker 2: because if you open Pandora's box to emotions— people think
- 23:43Speaker 2: that emotions can now dictate how the workplace works. Like,
- 23:47Speaker 2: they actually think that if I'm sad, that my sadness
- 23:50Speaker 2: now controls how the business functions. And that dooms businesses,
- 23:56Speaker 2: if you actually have to work that way.
- 23:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 23:57Speaker 2: Because we all have to be on mission. We all
- 23:59Speaker 2: have to be, you know, approaching a goal together. And
- 24:02Speaker 2: we have to decide what's right and wrong, what's legal
- 24:04Speaker 2: and illegal within the confines of a workplace, not in
- 24:08Speaker 2: emotional relationships.
- 24:09Speaker 4: But it's not even.
- 24:09Speaker 3: It's like, so my people... will say things to me,
- 24:14Speaker 3: and I'll say, what world are you in, right? I
- 24:20Speaker 3: really find myself, like, constantly, look, we joke around a
- 24:26Speaker 3: lot in my office. We argue politics, right? I have
- 24:29Speaker 3: some left-wing freaks that work for me.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Sure.
- 24:32Speaker 3: And, you know, in a company that, you know, isn't
- 24:34Speaker 3: necessarily conservative, right? But we do a lot of taxpayer things, and,
- 24:39Speaker 3: you know, it's a conservative thing. And they say things
- 24:44Speaker 3: that it's like it's okay. Let me ask you a question.
- 24:47Speaker 3: When you come upon a homeless person or an alleged
- 24:51Speaker 3: homeless person, fake homeless, whatever they are, on the corner.
- 24:55Speaker 3: And by the way, I'd like to thank the mayor,
- 24:57Speaker 3: Mayor Whitmer, because we now have homeless on every corner.
- 24:59Speaker 2: They are everywhere.
- 25:00Speaker 3: Getting them out of downtown, great idea. Yeah, great. Because
- 25:03Speaker 3: you just spread them now. You go into like in
- 25:05Speaker 3: the suburbs and there's like a homeless guy on the corner.
- 25:09Speaker 3: But when you see those people, Those people. What do
- 25:14Speaker 3: you think? Do you say, gee, I feel really bad
- 25:17Speaker 3: that life's hard? Because some of them are very nice.
- 25:21Speaker 2: I like this question.
- 25:22Speaker 3: Or do you say, oh, great, another loser homeless guy
- 25:28Speaker 3: on the corner wants to buy booze with my $ 5.
- 25:32Speaker 2: I think there's shades of gray. I think there's middle
- 25:34Speaker 2: ground between those two options you just gave me.
- 25:37Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Those were the only options.
- 25:40Speaker 2: You're either– I hate them or I love them.
- 25:42Speaker 3: Yeah, there's not a middle.
- 25:43Speaker 2: No, because my wife always wants to give people money. And, like,
- 25:47Speaker 2: we don't have a bunch of money, so we shouldn't
- 25:48Speaker 2: be doing that. But she always wants to, especially when
- 25:50Speaker 2: she sees people in the street. And I always tell
- 25:52Speaker 2: her no. And the biggest reason I say no to
- 25:54Speaker 2: that is that I think there's a system that can
- 25:57Speaker 2: allow this person to get off the street and eventually
- 25:59Speaker 2: get into a place where they can start to provide
- 26:02Speaker 2: for themselves. And that system includes homeless shelters and all
- 26:04Speaker 2: these other things.
- 26:05Speaker 3: If that's what they want. But most of those people
- 26:07Speaker 3: don't want that.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Well, so then that's what I say is I go–
- 26:10Speaker 2: If this person isn't doing that, if they're willingly still
- 26:12Speaker 2: choosing to be on the street where there's a system
- 26:14Speaker 2: that can get them off the street, they don't want
- 26:16Speaker 2: to be off the street. And then I don't want
- 26:17Speaker 2: to I don't want to help them continue to be
- 26:20Speaker 2: on the street. So I say no. And I do
- 26:22Speaker 2: look at them as someone choosing that path instead of
- 26:26Speaker 2: an attempted path back to.
- 26:28Speaker 3: I don't care. I don't care about the homeless people.
- 26:30Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I said that. All right. I'm sorry you're homeless.
- 26:34Speaker 2: That's fine.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Get a home.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Get a home.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Get a job. And there's a way to do it.
- 26:39Speaker 2: There's a path to do it.
- 26:40Speaker 3: Work.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Do stuff. At least go to the shelter first, man.
- 26:43Speaker 2: All right. We've got to take another break. A lot
- 26:46Speaker 2: coming up on the show. We both hate the homeless, apparently.
- 26:49Speaker 2: You've learned that about the mob, guys. On KSEV Mornings,
- 26:52Speaker 2: The Voice of Texas, 700 a.m.
- 27:05Speaker 5: Where conservatives find their voice, the voice of Texas.
- 27:08Speaker 7: After a hard rain, you can see them. The water
- 27:11Speaker 7: stains on the ceiling or the dripping water from a
- 27:13Speaker 7: recessed light. Now you start to get nervous because you
- 27:17Speaker 7: know leaks can cause big problems.
- 27:20Speaker 6: Once the water enters the structure, the trouble starts. Water
- 27:23Speaker 6: weakens rafters and beams over time. It soaks through drywall
- 27:27Speaker 6: and damages the insulation in your home.
- 27:29Speaker 7: And Roland, don't forget about mold. It grows fast in
- 27:32Speaker 7: our humidity and causes all kinds of health problems.
- 27:36Speaker 6: I'd really hate to see you spend thousands on expensive
- 27:38Speaker 6: structural or drywall repairs or mold removal projects, especially when
- 27:43Speaker 6: we can fix those leaks quickly at Tejas Roofing.
- 27:46Speaker 7: And most of our leak repairs are under $ 500. This

- 29:27Speaker 9: From the KSEV Weather Center, today expect a mix of
- 29:31Speaker 9: sun and clouds with a chance of a thunderstorm in
- 29:33Speaker 9: some areas as a tropical rainstorm moves through this afternoon,
- 29:36Speaker 9: bringing a high of 96. Tonight will be most of
- 29:39Speaker 9: the day. cloudy and humid with a few showers and
- 29:42Speaker 9: thunderstorms lingering from the tropical rainstorm with a low of 77.
- 29:46Speaker 9: Tomorrow will be humid with more showers and thunderstorms likely

- 29:53Speaker 9: the KACV Weather Center forecast, I'm AccuWeather meteorologist Joe Lundberg.
- 30:09Speaker 3: Don't call us. We were just talking about giving out
- 30:14Speaker 3: the phone number. You know, when I used to fill
- 30:17Speaker 3: in for Chris, I used to give the number every, like,
- 30:20Speaker 3: five seconds. I know. Like, please, please call me.
- 30:22Speaker 2: Well, this radio station for a long time has been
- 30:24Speaker 2: a radio station that likes to talk to callers, and
- 30:26Speaker 2: we just.
- 30:27Speaker 3: You don't like to talk to people. You said, I
- 30:30Speaker 3: don't want.
- 30:30Speaker 2: There's a lot of data in radio that says if
- 30:33Speaker 2: it's the same people calling in every day, that they
- 30:35Speaker 2: hurt your ratings. And I'm not trying to offend listeners
- 30:38Speaker 2: out there.
- 30:38Speaker 3: Is that true, though? I mean.
- 30:39Speaker 2: There's a lot of data. This isn't just like somebody's opinion.
- 30:42Speaker 3: A lot of data. What are you, like, some.
- 30:43Speaker 2: I'm a data guy in the world of radio. You
- 30:45Speaker 2: can track ratings and you can see people's tune in
- 30:48Speaker 2: and tune out. Yeah, we don't pay for them, so
- 30:50Speaker 2: we don't do it as much as others do, but
- 30:52Speaker 2: they can do it.
- 30:52Speaker 12: Right.
- 30:53Speaker 2: And a lot of that information says that especially this
- 30:55Speaker 2: is no offense to our callers. We have some really
- 30:57Speaker 2: great callers out there. But when they call in all
- 30:59Speaker 2: the time, which a lot of callers to this radio
- 31:02Speaker 2: station like to call in fairly frequently. There's data that
- 31:05Speaker 2: says that people eventually tune out.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Can we force them to change their names? Yeah, maybe.
- 31:09Speaker 2: But we're going to give out the number. We'd love
- 31:10Speaker 2: to talk to you.
- 31:11Speaker 3: 281-558-5738.
- 31:11Speaker 4: 281-558-5738.
- 31:11Speaker 2: Okay, I want the freaks to call. I want the
- 31:14Speaker 2: left wing.
- 31:14Speaker 3: If you are a left wing.
- 31:16Speaker 2: Freak and for some reason you stumbled onto.
- 31:18Speaker 3: This radio station this morning.
- 31:19Speaker 4: Yes.
- 31:29Speaker 3: I'd like you to call because I believe the best
- 31:32Speaker 3: weapon we have is common sense.
- 31:34Speaker 2: I believe that, too.
- 31:35Speaker 3: And I believe that is a transformer. I can't even
- 31:39Speaker 3: say the word. Transformational.
- 31:41Speaker 2: Transformative.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Transformative. Whatever the word is. It's a good word. But
- 31:45Speaker 3: I think that's the message for this midterm. Yes. And
- 31:49Speaker 3: I don't understand. And I've offered it for free to
- 31:53Speaker 3: my Republican friends. Right. Just we're you know, we're not crazy.
- 31:59Speaker 3: They're crazy. I think people accept that they're crazy.
- 32:04Speaker 2: I've heard you say, though, that you also think that
- 32:05Speaker 2: the Republicans should soften their message, not change it, but
- 32:09Speaker 2: maybe try to come off.
- 32:10Speaker 3: I got to tell you, the whole terrorist, trans thing,
- 32:13Speaker 3: I get it, right? But we've got to have something
- 32:18Speaker 3: better than that.
- 32:19Speaker 2: Well, and this is where I have made the argument
- 32:21Speaker 2: before that I think that young people and young voters
- 32:24Speaker 2: who are more and more determining the outcome of elections—
- 32:27Speaker 2: tune out to some of that stuff and they would
- 32:29Speaker 2: hear the argument more if you allowed the argument to
- 32:33Speaker 2: take place the way that a charlie kirk did which
- 32:35Speaker 2: was not immediately saying you know terrorists and trans and
- 32:38Speaker 2: all that stuff or whatever it is but the problem
- 32:41Speaker 2: with that i found in doing this um in this
- 32:44Speaker 2: medium where the audience is a little bit older than
- 32:46Speaker 2: say the internet is that the older people think you're
- 32:49Speaker 2: weak older people think you're weak the minute that i
- 32:52Speaker 2: say something you I mean, but then which one do
- 32:55Speaker 2: I be? So you're saying soften the message, but don't
- 32:57Speaker 2: come off weak. And I think that's impossible.
- 32:59Speaker 3: I don't, but I, I don't think, I don't view
- 33:01Speaker 3: that as weak to, and I, I've heard that. I
- 33:04Speaker 3: don't think I'm being weak to say we don't do
- 33:08Speaker 3: everything right, but the other guys are nuts.
- 33:11Speaker 2: The other guys are nuts.
- 33:12Speaker 3: And so, and I just don't understand why that, I
- 33:15Speaker 3: don't view that as a soft message. I view that
- 33:17Speaker 3: as like sort of real because Republicans are, do things wrong, right? Sometimes.
- 33:25Speaker 3: And I think, and I've said it before, I think
- 33:29Speaker 3: the greed in this system is coming back to haunt us.
- 33:34Speaker 3: I think there is so much greed. People aren't satisfied
- 33:38Speaker 3: because they all want more. I was a young radio
- 33:42Speaker 3: guy and then I wanted to go on TV. I
- 33:44Speaker 3: make more money and I can do more stuff. I
- 33:46Speaker 3: get all that, right? But I just think We allow
- 33:51Speaker 3: things to happen like Democrats waste money.
- 33:56Speaker 12: Right.
- 33:56Speaker 3: Right. Republicans, I think, spend money to help their friends
- 34:04Speaker 3: in ways that are not appropriate. Like I see what's
- 34:06Speaker 3: going on with the Trump. I don't like it.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Couldn't you just say that steal money? You say that
- 34:11Speaker 2: somebody wastes money and somebody steals it.
- 34:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. I'm not saying that Democrats don't
- 34:16Speaker 3: steal money, too. Yeah. But I think a lot of
- 34:18Speaker 3: things Democrats do is sort of like, gee, wouldn't it
- 34:22Speaker 3: be great if we could give all the homeless guys
- 34:24Speaker 3: in the street a new car?
- 34:26Speaker 2: Do you mind?
- 34:26Speaker 3: Give them a Cadillac.
- 34:27Speaker 2: I don't know how much we want to argue with
- 34:29Speaker 2: each other on this show.
- 34:30Speaker 3: No, no, I'm not.
- 34:31Speaker 2: No, no, because I'm about to set something up.
- 34:33Speaker 3: I missed you, actually. Oh, good.
- 34:34Speaker 2: I missed you, too. I'm about to set something up, though.
- 34:36Speaker 2: I would say this. You said you don't like a
- 34:37Speaker 2: lot of what's going on with Trump in the world
- 34:39Speaker 2: of spending.
- 34:40Speaker 4: I don't.
- 34:40Speaker 2: What do you mean?
- 34:41Speaker 3: Well, I'm talking about what I view as the family.
- 34:44Speaker 2: The slush fund.
- 34:45Speaker 3: Getting really, really, really rich. And I don't object to
- 34:50Speaker 3: people making good investments, but I think it just looks
- 34:56Speaker 3: back to me. And as a guy who's done this
- 34:58Speaker 3: all my life, it's hard for me to sort of
- 35:01Speaker 3: turn away from that and say, Gee, I think it's
- 35:04Speaker 3: great that the kids made $ 4 billion last year. I'm sorry.
- 35:08Speaker 3: I just think there's something wrong with it.
- 35:10Speaker 2: I understand, and I can see that point. But let
- 35:12Speaker 2: me ask you this. Doesn't that happen with everyone who's
- 35:15Speaker 2: in the office of the White House? Doesn't every family
- 35:18Speaker 2: enrich themselves? Biden's family did.
- 35:20Speaker 3: Yeah, but if you look at— and again, this is not
- 35:23Speaker 3: meant as a defense of the crack guy. Sure. I
- 35:27Speaker 3: get it. My son's a crack guy, and he leaves
- 35:30Speaker 3: cocaine in the White House, whatever.
- 35:31Speaker 2: Yeah, gotcha.
- 35:31Speaker 3: Yeah. But you look at the kind of money they made,
- 35:36Speaker 3: it's like it's nothing compared to the profit, the great
- 35:44Speaker 3: business decisions that the Trump kids are making. And I
- 35:47Speaker 3: just think it loses our argument when we're saying, well,
- 35:53Speaker 3: you know, they did it too. Yeah. They were small fries.
- 35:57Speaker 3: I mean, Biden wasn't even that greedy.
- 36:00Speaker 2: To be honest, though, and this is again, I'm playing
- 36:03Speaker 2: devil's advocate to a degree because I do agree with you.
- 36:05Speaker 2: I would prefer that people didn't enrich themselves through political positions.
- 36:09Speaker 2: I would prefer that. But the Trump and the Trump organization.
- 36:13Speaker 2: was a much more powerful business before President Trump becomes
- 36:16Speaker 2: a president.
- 36:16Speaker 3: And I bought that in the first term.
- 36:18Speaker 2: No, but it was. And so if it expands to
- 36:20Speaker 2: the Middle East, if it expands to Asia in a
- 36:22Speaker 2: way that seems to be connected to politics, which I'm
- 36:26Speaker 2: not saying it's not, it also somewhat makes sense for
- 36:29Speaker 2: an organization that's already as powerful as it is in
- 36:31Speaker 2: the United States. And if they're getting some sweetheart deals,
- 36:35Speaker 2: that only creates so much more opportunity for a company
- 36:38Speaker 2: that probably had the opportunity anyways.
- 36:40Speaker 3: This is not 2016. In 2016, I understood the concept
- 36:47Speaker 3: that this family is very wealthy and does real estate
- 36:51Speaker 3: deals everywhere, and I got it. This time, I think
- 36:58Speaker 3: it's almost like Like, let's just get as much as
- 37:02Speaker 3: we can. And that's what it feels like to me.
- 37:05Speaker 3: And I just think it's a bad look.
- 37:07Speaker 2: I agree with you. I don't want to sound like
- 37:09Speaker 2: I don't agree with you. Because I agree with you.
- 37:11Speaker 3: Then why are you arguing with me? Don't argue with me.
- 37:14Speaker 3: I'm right. You know I'm telling the truth.
- 37:17Speaker 2: Because I don't think it's illegal. And I think it
- 37:21Speaker 2: should be. I think it should be.
- 37:23Speaker 3: See... Look, all the Nancy Pelosi stock stuff, right?
- 37:28Speaker 2: That feels more like insider trading. That feels illegal.
- 37:30Speaker 3: It does feel illegal, right? And I don't think what's
- 37:33Speaker 3: happening is necessarily illegal.
- 37:36Speaker 2: Right, it's not the same thing.
- 37:37Speaker 3: I just think there needs to be some recognition that
- 37:42Speaker 3: it looks bad and that power corrupts, because I think
- 37:46Speaker 3: it does to a certain degree.
- 37:48Speaker 2: Always.
- 37:48Speaker 3: And I just think that most Republicans that I know,
- 37:55Speaker 3: are just hardworking. They want to make a living. They
- 38:00Speaker 3: want everyone to do their thing and make a living
- 38:03Speaker 3: and raise their kids and go to church and all
- 38:06Speaker 3: this kind of stuff. And so I just think a
- 38:09Speaker 3: lot of us look the other way because we don't
- 38:12Speaker 3: want people to say, well, then we should get the
- 38:15Speaker 3: other guys. Because the other guys are on a choice.
- 38:17Speaker 2: Yeah, the other guys are worse.
- 38:19Speaker 3: To me, it's not like, well... What do I do?
- 38:23Speaker 3: Do I vote for the normal people or do I
- 38:26Speaker 3: vote for the people that hate the Jews? What do
- 38:28Speaker 3: I do?
- 38:28Speaker 2: It's tough.
- 38:29Speaker 3: And it's not a close call for me. I know.
- 38:31Speaker 3: But that doesn't mean that I think we're hurting ourselves
- 38:36Speaker 3: if we don't send the same message.
- 38:38Speaker 2: But I think this all goes back to a very
- 38:41Speaker 2: simplistic thing that President Trump has said before about his taxes,
- 38:44Speaker 2: for example. When there were loopholes that allowed him to
- 38:47Speaker 2: pay less in taxes, he said taking advantage of those
- 38:50Speaker 2: loopholes made him smart. He's right. He is right. So
- 38:53Speaker 2: right now, if the Trump family is finding avenues to
- 38:57Speaker 2: enrich themselves further as already an incredibly wealthy and successful company.
- 39:01Speaker 3: And family, then God bless them.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Well, no, I think that they're still taking advantage of
- 39:05Speaker 2: the same openings that shouldn't exist. And so what I
- 39:08Speaker 2: would like is someone in power to close those openings
- 39:11Speaker 2: the way that you're saying without having to just hope
- 39:14Speaker 2: that people do it on their own. Because if I
- 39:16Speaker 2: sit in a room with a Donald Trump Jr., And
- 39:19Speaker 2: I go, hey, man, can you stop making so much
- 39:21Speaker 2: money for the Trump organization? He's going to look at
- 39:23Speaker 2: me like, what? And he's going to slap me across
- 39:25Speaker 2: my face because that's his job right now is as
- 39:28Speaker 2: one of the leaders of that organization make as much
- 39:30Speaker 2: money as possible so he's just doing his job i
- 39:34Speaker 2: need to find a way to disconnect the families of
- 39:36Speaker 2: the politicians from the politicians so they can't legally benefit
- 39:41Speaker 2: From a job that someone has in our government.
- 39:43Speaker 3: But in a way, that's not fair either. It's not.
- 39:46Speaker 3: Because you have the Trump family, which is– that's what
- 39:49Speaker 3: they do. They're real estate developers. That's what they do.
- 39:51Speaker 8: Right.
- 39:52Speaker 3: And so how do you know what's what? And I'm
- 39:56Speaker 3: not trying to, like, screw them over.
- 39:58Speaker 2: I know.
- 39:59Speaker 3: I'm really not. I mean, I don't know what– The
- 40:02Speaker 3: proper amount is.
- 40:03Speaker 2: No, you probably can't do it in a way that
- 40:05Speaker 2: would make any sense because there's probably a lot of
- 40:07Speaker 2: restrictions that would feel too strong and then restrictions that
- 40:10Speaker 2: wouldn't work. So I don't know. But I agree with
- 40:12Speaker 2: you that the look is not good and the optics
- 40:15Speaker 2: of it would be great if they chose not to
- 40:16Speaker 2: do it. But they're going to do it anyway.
- 40:18Speaker 3: And I also think that some things– look, I get
- 40:22Speaker 3: Trump's deal, right? I agree with a lot of his policies.
- 40:26Speaker 3: But he says things that just are on its surface bull.
- 40:32Speaker 2: Right.
- 40:32Speaker 3: And I used to think it was funnier than I
- 40:37Speaker 3: do now. Sure. And I think that's part of the
- 40:40Speaker 3: sort of when the same person is around.
- 40:42Speaker 2: Well, I also think that you probably think it's no
- 40:44Speaker 2: longer working. I think you thought it was funnier when
- 40:47Speaker 2: you also thought it was working.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Well, I watched Fox and Friends this morning when I
- 40:50Speaker 3: woke up a little bit. And you could almost feel
- 40:54Speaker 3: the desperation. The frustration is palpable because it almost feels
- 41:02Speaker 3: like we think that Our message isn't working anymore.
- 41:07Speaker 2: It's not.
- 41:07Speaker 3: It's not working with regular people.
- 41:09Speaker 2: It's not, though. And I'll say this about this, and
- 41:11Speaker 2: I feel like this is really where this conversation deserves
- 41:14Speaker 2: to go and should go, is if Democratic socialists are
- 41:18Speaker 2: making inroads with the American people, and they are.
- 41:21Speaker 3: Right.
- 41:21Speaker 2: There are crazy, insane messages that are landing with some
- 41:25Speaker 2: voters in at least what polling that I never believe
- 41:28Speaker 2: has been saying to a degree.
- 41:29Speaker 4: Right.
- 41:30Speaker 2: If that's true, our message isn't working because we are
- 41:33Speaker 2: the sane. We are the rational. We are the people
- 41:35Speaker 2: that want to do it the right way. And if
- 41:37Speaker 2: they're going to keep pushing us this further left place
- 41:40Speaker 2: and some of these people are actually winning elections or
- 41:42Speaker 2: at least primaries, something's broken. Something has to be.
- 41:45Speaker 3: It's the big, beautiful bill. Right.
- 41:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Like we three people think that that was a good idea.
- 41:52Speaker 3: It's the big, beautiful bill.
- 41:53Speaker 2: It's kind of beautiful.
- 41:55Speaker 3: Sure. But like, can you tell somebody what it did
- 41:59Speaker 3: for them? Right.
- 41:59Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 42:00Speaker 2: But that's no like that's fighting fire without fire because
- 42:03Speaker 2: the Democrats never do it. They never tell the truth.
- 42:06Speaker 2: And so asking us to tell the truth is something
- 42:08Speaker 2: I think we've done before. I don't know what the
- 42:11Speaker 2: right answer is, but I think you're right.
- 42:13Speaker 3: I'll give you the right answer when we come back.
- 42:14Speaker 2: All right, we'll come back in a bit. KSEV Mornings,

- 44:08Speaker 3: here in the morning. You know, people think, you know,
- 44:13Speaker 3: radio people, they talk when the show's on, and then
- 44:16Speaker 3: when the show goes off, they all just don't talk.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Some don't. Have you ever seen people that don't?
- 44:22Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 44:22Speaker 2: I've known people in this industry that hate each other,
- 44:25Speaker 2: but are still working together. And they don't talk during
- 44:27Speaker 2: the breaks. They sit there in silence. They, it was,
- 44:30Speaker 2: we had a place, I was at a place in
- 44:32Speaker 2: Chicago where they had a live cam that stayed on
- 44:35Speaker 2: during the breaks.
- 44:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 44:36Speaker 2: And you'd see these two people just dead silence. And
- 44:39Speaker 2: then the minute the, the, uh, Mike turned on again.
- 44:41Speaker 3: Hey, buddy, it's great to see you. Yeah. That's really funny.
- 44:44Speaker 3: Cause we blab.
- 44:46Speaker 2: We do the whole time.
- 44:47Speaker 3: And, and I, and I was, I asked you, cause
- 44:49Speaker 3: I didn't know. Cause I'm not, you know, a technical guy.
- 44:51Speaker 3: It's like the people's, see us, hear us during the break.
- 44:55Speaker 3: And you said, no.
- 44:56Speaker 2: And I said, they currently cannot.
- 44:57Speaker 3: They would like the show even better if they heard
- 45:00Speaker 3: us because my disdain for a lot of people is
- 45:05Speaker 3: pretty palpable. It is. I really just.
- 45:08Speaker 2: Well, and the other thing that's fun about what you
- 45:10Speaker 2: said is on the internet, there's no rules. So if
- 45:12Speaker 2: we were just on the internet during the breaks, we
- 45:14Speaker 2: can say bad words and stuff. We can do some
- 45:16Speaker 2: things we can't do on the radio.
- 45:17Speaker 3: You know, I was always amazed that I was in
- 45:19Speaker 3: TV for 27 years and I never said, Like, the
- 45:23Speaker 3: big word.
- 45:23Speaker 2: On the air?
- 45:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Okay. Are you a bad word guy off the air?
- 45:27Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. I'm filthy.
- 45:29Speaker 2: I am, too.
- 45:29Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 45:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's another East Coast Italian thing.
- 45:32Speaker 3: No, I learned to cuss when I was, like, four.
- 45:35Speaker 2: Okay.
- 45:36Speaker 3: In Flappish. You know, the women, the moms would open
- 45:38Speaker 3: the door. Oh, yeah. I mean, so I grew up
- 45:43Speaker 3: with that. And I very much... A New York Italian
- 45:47Speaker 3: when it comes to cussing. Yeah.
- 45:49Speaker 2: I don't know if that's what– I'm guessing that that's
- 45:50Speaker 2: what it is because I say a lot of bad words.
- 45:53Speaker 2: And I have to be pulled back by some people.
- 45:55Speaker 2: Some people are like, hey, man, you can't say that here.
- 45:57Speaker 2: Like especially if there's a kid in earshot, I'll forget
- 46:00Speaker 2: occasionally that there's a child somewhere close by.
- 46:03Speaker 3: I'm especially mean to people who don't have as much
- 46:06Speaker 3: as I do.
- 46:08Speaker 1: I do.
- 46:08Speaker 2: In what regard?
- 46:09Speaker 3: Well, like the homeless. We were talking about the homeless.
- 46:11Speaker 3: And I got to tell you, like you're either crazy–
- 46:14Speaker 3: Or you're on drugs. Right. Or you're just trying to
- 46:16Speaker 3: scam me. Five bucks, you can get me to buy
- 46:18Speaker 3: your car.
- 46:19Speaker 2: You just really don't want to go live by the rules.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Because if you go live by the rules, there's going
- 46:23Speaker 2: to be an avenue for you to get out of
- 46:24Speaker 2: what you're in.
- 46:24Speaker 3: That's right. Because at this point, with the homeless organizations,
- 46:28Speaker 3: I was against the city of Houston going into the
- 46:33Speaker 3: homeless business. Right? I thought it was one of the
- 46:37Speaker 3: real left-wing things that Whitmire did. I actually don't. get
- 46:42Speaker 3: along with the mayor. I actually think he's for the
- 46:45Speaker 3: most part compared to Turner, who was like an absolute crook.
- 46:47Speaker 3: I think, I think Whitmire has done a good job.
- 46:50Speaker 3: The homeless thing, spending like three or four, we're going
- 46:53Speaker 3: to spend $ 135 million so we can buy a place
- 46:57Speaker 3: from a guy. Well, a lot worth a lot less
- 47:01Speaker 3: than what we paid for it. So we can run
- 47:03Speaker 3: a homeless operation when we have homeless nonprofits that have
- 47:07Speaker 3: literally hundreds of millions of dollars.
- 47:10Speaker 9: Right.
- 47:11Speaker 3: And, and, This bureaucracy. We create bureaucracies, right? We could
- 47:16Speaker 3: literally give every homeless person in Houston a house in Katy, right?
- 47:22Speaker 3: A two-story house. And say, here's your house. We'll throw
- 47:27Speaker 3: in some furniture. A mattress mat will throw in some furniture, right?
- 47:31Speaker 3: And then leave me alone. Go live your life, right?
- 47:35Speaker 3: We'll pay your damn taxes, but it'll be cheaper for
- 47:38Speaker 3: us to do that than for us to spend $ 130
- 47:41Speaker 3: million on the worst of the worst homeless. They're all
- 47:46Speaker 3: going to flock into this place to say, yeah, I
- 47:49Speaker 3: don't want to be on the street. I want to
- 47:51Speaker 3: be in some one room with three other crazy people.
- 47:54Speaker 3: That's what I want to do, right? Because that's what's
- 47:57Speaker 3: going to happen. Right. The idea we're going to put
- 48:00Speaker 3: four drug addicts.
- 48:02Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 48:03Speaker 3: Or four mentally ill people in a room, and it's
- 48:08Speaker 3: going to work out great.
- 48:09Speaker 2: It'll be fine.
- 48:09Speaker 3: It's a good idea. Let's do that.
- 48:11Speaker 2: Obviously, it's a terrible idea. If you get a free
- 48:16Speaker 2: two-bedroom house in Katy, though, I want to be homeless
- 48:18Speaker 2: for a little bit.
- 48:19Speaker 3: Look, I think everybody should sign up. I'm sorry, I
- 48:22Speaker 3: can't afford my house anymore, but you just give me one.
- 48:24Speaker 2: Give me a two-bedroom.
- 48:24Speaker 3: But it's cheaper. That's the problem.
- 48:27Speaker 2: I know.
- 48:28Speaker 3: Look, I get... But I don't get being sympathetic because
- 48:32Speaker 3: I'm not a sympathetic type. But I understand the concept
- 48:36Speaker 3: of feeling bad for people who don't have what you have.
- 48:41Speaker 3: I get the theory. The problem is government can't fix that.
- 48:47Speaker 3: And we've tried to be candy and nuts to everybody.
- 48:51Speaker 3: And let's take care of you because you have five
- 48:54Speaker 3: arms and you have 12 genders and And your mother
- 48:59Speaker 3: was a Puerto Rican Jewish Italian person. And we should
- 49:04Speaker 3: feel sympathy for you. 281-558-5738.
- 49:07Speaker 2: If you want to call in, he wants me to
- 49:09Speaker 2: give out the phone number now. 281-558-5738. And I'd like
- 49:13Speaker 2: you to call and talk.
- 49:15Speaker 3: We talked about a number of things this morning. I
- 49:18Speaker 3: was all pent up.
- 49:19Speaker 6: No.
- 49:20Speaker 3: Talk to you. Talked about Iran. Right.
- 49:22Speaker 2: But I wanted to get back to the homeless thing
- 49:24Speaker 2: you're saying, too, because part of what I'm thinking about
- 49:27Speaker 2: as you're saying all this and all the ways that
- 49:28Speaker 2: it works is I do think if you just gave
- 49:31Speaker 2: a bunch of free stuff, like the two-bedroom house to
- 49:33Speaker 2: the worst of the worst, the people that don't want it,
- 49:36Speaker 2: they'd sell it to buy drugs.
- 49:37Speaker 3: Yeah, and the neighbors would love it too, right? Move
- 49:40Speaker 3: the crazy guy in.
- 49:41Speaker 2: Right, but no, but he wouldn't stay. I think that
- 49:43Speaker 2: even in that atmosphere, that guy would still sell his house,
- 49:46Speaker 2: go get the thing he wants, and go be back
- 49:47Speaker 2: on the.
- 49:48Speaker 3: Street in a few years. And that's the problem.
- 49:49Speaker 2: And that's the problem. And as you said, the government
- 49:51Speaker 2: can't fix that problem. And I do think that when
- 49:54Speaker 2: the government says, we'll fix this, a lot of people
- 49:57Speaker 2: who would like to help go, all right, the government's
- 49:59Speaker 2: going to fix it. I'm not going to do anything.
- 50:01Speaker 2: If the government turned the spigots off, And forced society
- 50:06Speaker 2: to watch something happen that they didn't want to happen.
- 50:08Speaker 2: Then human emotion, compassion, all that stuff can come out
- 50:11Speaker 2: and I can give my own money to a cause
- 50:14Speaker 2: directly that I think will solve it without having it
- 50:16Speaker 2: taken by the government, misused by the government and sent back. Like,
- 50:20Speaker 2: I think that we'd become a more philanthropic society. If
- 50:24Speaker 2: the government stayed out of more stuff.
- 50:26Speaker 3: Not me.
- 50:27Speaker 2: It's fine. It's totally fine.
- 50:28Speaker 3: I'm not giving them money.
- 50:29Speaker 2: It doesn't mean you.
- 50:30Speaker 3: I'll give them cigarettes.
- 50:31Speaker 2: I'm not going to give.
- 50:31Speaker 3: Them any money. Sometimes I ask for money. I don't
- 50:34Speaker 3: have any money. Because who carries cash? And I'll say,
- 50:38Speaker 3: how about a cigarette? I'll give them a pack.
- 50:40Speaker 2: I always have cash.
- 50:41Speaker 3: It only costs $ 30.
- 50:42Speaker 2: I just want to say this on the radio. I
- 50:44Speaker 2: always have cash. I always tell them I don't. I
- 50:46Speaker 2: always have it.
- 50:47Speaker 3: See, I don't normally have cash.
- 50:49Speaker 2: I have a little on me all the time. Just
- 50:51Speaker 2: in case. Yeah. I got a little right now.
- 50:53Speaker 3: Really? Can I borrow? Can I have $ 10?
- 50:57Speaker 2: How much do you want?
- 50:57Speaker 3: I'm homeless.
- 50:59Speaker 2: No, I don't have any cash.
- 51:00Speaker 3: I'm almost homeless.
- 51:01Speaker 2: That's what I'd say to you. I'd look at you
- 51:02Speaker 2: in the eye, square in the eye, and say I
- 51:03Speaker 2: don't have any money.
- 51:04Speaker 3: Do you lie to the homeless? I think we should
- 51:06Speaker 3: ask people. Daily.
- 51:07Speaker 2: I lie to the homeless daily. I'm not proud of it.
- 51:10Speaker 2: They're everywhere.
- 51:11Speaker 3: And I'm telling you something. I think politically, Whitmire was
- 51:14Speaker 3: smart because he dispersed them out of downtown.
- 51:16Speaker 1: Yes.
- 51:17Speaker 3: But literally, everywhere I go now, I see a homeless guy.
- 51:23Speaker 3: I know. And I first of all, I don't believe
- 51:26Speaker 3: that he's homeless. I think if you follow those people,
- 51:28Speaker 3: they might have a house. Oh, please. Yeah.
- 51:31Speaker 2: Wasn't there like a Wall Street Journal writer who 20
- 51:33Speaker 2: years ago did a story where he just sat out
- 51:36Speaker 2: on the street, covered himself, put out a little thing,
- 51:38Speaker 2: didn't even talk to people and made a bunch of money?
- 51:41Speaker 3: I might do that.
- 51:42Speaker 2: You should.
- 51:43Speaker 3: It would be a lot more relaxing to get a dog,
- 51:46Speaker 3: get some dog for the pound. So it looks like
- 51:49Speaker 3: a nice cute little puppy. Right. And maybe rent a baby.
- 51:52Speaker 2: Rent a baby.
- 51:53Speaker 3: Rent a baby from someone.
- 51:54Speaker 2: Not a lot of services that do that.
- 51:55Speaker 3: Yeah. Like you see the women out there with the
- 51:57Speaker 3: little kid.
- 51:58Speaker 2: Yes.
- 51:58Speaker 5: Right.
- 51:59Speaker 3: Is that a rocket? Are they gypsies? Those are the
- 52:01Speaker 3: only people.
- 52:02Speaker 2: Those are the only people that when my wife says,
- 52:04Speaker 2: let's give them some money. Occasionally it does happen. Occasionally
- 52:07Speaker 2: money does get handed to those people. If there's a baby.
- 52:09Speaker 3: But do you. Oh, so it's. So a throw down baby. Prop.
- 52:14Speaker 2: A baby prop can work occasionally. Not all the time.
- 52:18Speaker 3: Do you give money? We should ask our audience. Do
- 52:20Speaker 3: you give money to the homeless?
- 52:21Speaker 5: Sure.
- 52:22Speaker 3: Because I don't think we should give them anything. 281-558-5738.
- 52:25Speaker 2: Wayne wants to know, do you give money to the homeless?
- 52:29Speaker 3: I don't think I want to give money to anyone.
- 52:32Speaker 2: I don't like giving money to people.
- 52:33Speaker 3: I really don't. I barely buy. I buy lunch for
- 52:36Speaker 3: my staff on Thursdays. Okay. Even that really taxes me.
- 52:41Speaker 3: I mean, and I've gone.
- 52:42Speaker 2: What kind of lunch are you talking about?
- 52:44Speaker 3: Well, we used to buy sushi and stuff once in
- 52:46Speaker 3: a while.
- 52:46Speaker 2: That's a little fancy.
- 52:47Speaker 3: But now it's like, what is the cheapest thing we
- 52:51Speaker 3: could possibly buy that would be considered food to my
- 52:56Speaker 3: staff that doesn't cost me more than about $ 6?
- 52:58Speaker 2: You said they're all in their 20s, right?
- 53:00Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:01Speaker 2: You should get them like Lunchables. Just get a little
- 53:03Speaker 2: like Lunchable thing.
- 53:05Speaker 3: No, I go to a restaurant, but even like McDonald's now,
- 53:09Speaker 3: I don't want to pick up McDonald's.
- 53:11Speaker 2: I like McDonald's, yeah.
- 53:12Speaker 3: It's fine, but it's like- It's more expensive.
- 53:15Speaker 2: It's expensive.
- 53:16Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 53:17Speaker 3: I go to like a little cheeseburger, a little wafer
- 53:19Speaker 3: of burger. And fries, like $ 8. 12 or something. I don't
- 53:25Speaker 3: know what it is.
- 53:25Speaker 2: Taco Bell costs more than $ 10 to feed a person now.
- 53:28Speaker 2: That's just wrong.
- 53:29Speaker 3: Although I do think bean burritos are, if I could
- 53:34Speaker 3: live on nothing but bean and cheese burritos, I'd be
- 53:36Speaker 3: perfectly fine. I don't even need a steak.
- 53:37Speaker 2: Just stock the freezer with, like, frozen burritos.
- 53:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:41Speaker 2: And just let your staff eat those.
- 53:42Speaker 3: I would be very happy. Oh, the music. You know,
- 53:44Speaker 3: Russell starts playing the music. When we get, like, a
- 53:48Speaker 3: little crazy.
- 53:49Speaker 2: Yeah, when he's like, this has got to stop now.
- 53:52Speaker 2: Before they keep saying mean.
- 53:53Speaker 3: Things about the homeless. So who can we make fun
- 53:54Speaker 3: of when we come back? Anybody.
- 53:56Speaker 2: Anybody you want to make fun of.
- 53:57Speaker 3: The trans people.
- 53:57Speaker 2: Okay. I don't give them any money either. I don't
- 54:02Speaker 2: give the trans any money.
- 54:03Speaker 3: A trans homeless person. That would be a great combination.
- 54:09Speaker 2: All right.
- 54:11Speaker 3: 281-558-5738.
- 54:11Speaker 2: If you want to contribute to our show today, 281-558-5738.
- 54:15Speaker 2: Do you give money to the homeless?
- 54:17Speaker 3: It's called a contribution now when you call in. Sure.
- 54:19Speaker 2: Do you want to contribute? Yeah, do you want to contribute?
- 54:22Speaker 2: And I get well with the mob guys. We're looking
- 54:24Speaker 2: for a little bit. If you give us a little bit,
- 54:25Speaker 2: you get on the show.
- 54:26Speaker 3: Come on.
- 54:27Speaker 2: Of course.
