- 0:06Speaker 1: ever been. Making mornings great again. First thing today on
- 0:10Speaker 1: the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Blessings of a Tedstee on you and your kin at 434-882-4217.
- 0:39Speaker 2: That's how you get in. All of a sudden, I'm
- 0:43Speaker 2: Jesse Jackson. I'm rhyming everything. We tell you what went
- 0:50Speaker 2: on last night, and then we ask you to tell
- 0:53Speaker 2: us how it's impacting you. You know why? Because you
- 0:57Speaker 2: are the most important local aspect of the radio station.
- 1:03Speaker 3: Why?
- 1:04Speaker 2: Because you're there. You are where it's happening. Because the
- 1:10Speaker 2: people who are elected into office, they don't know what
- 1:12Speaker 2: you're paying for gas. They get briefed. They get a document. Well,
- 1:19Speaker 2: they'll see gasbuddy.com saying, And, of course, the populist is
- 1:26Speaker 2: to bash the corporation wherever it is because, let's face it,
- 1:31Speaker 2: politicians don't like criticizing other politicians except Donald Trump, which
- 1:36Speaker 2: is probably one of the existential reasons that everyone hates
- 1:44Speaker 2: Donald Trump is he doesn't have a problem criticizing other politicians.
- 1:56Speaker 2: And that's just not done. We're hardworking. We work very
- 2:03Speaker 2: hard at padding our own bank accounts. You know, it's
- 2:07Speaker 2: not easy setting up all these shell corporations. You think
- 2:13Speaker 2: it's easy setting up these shell corporations? No, sir, mister. No,
- 2:21Speaker 2: it's very hard work. They work their accountant's fingers to
- 2:24Speaker 2: the bones, don't they? So the politicians are out there
- 2:32Speaker 2: and they have no idea what you're going through. So
- 2:34Speaker 2: that's where you and I come in. Call it market research.
- 2:40Speaker 2: 434-8 and text message that number as well. It's burning
- 2:44Speaker 2: up this morning. It's a good thing I don't pay
- 2:47Speaker 2: extra for texting. Joe in Crozet, Virginia writes, just got
- 2:53Speaker 2: your info. My nuts started falling last week. Oops, my chestnuts.
- 2:58Speaker 2: That sounds much better. Yes, you're right, Joe. Yes, it does.
- 3:02Speaker 2: But we appreciate your information. Yeah, we have chestnut growers
- 3:07Speaker 2: all around our community, and so I appreciate your info
- 3:11Speaker 2: on yours. Because Christmas will be here, and we need
- 3:15Speaker 2: to start getting them roasting on the open fire there.
- 3:18Speaker 2: And speaking of roasting on an open fire, you don't
- 3:20Speaker 2: know Jack Smith was in front of the Senate. Yeah,
- 3:24Speaker 2: I know there were other ones there, but got to
- 3:27Speaker 2: love John Kennedy. We'll get into some of that a
- 3:30Speaker 2: little bit coming up, but our first things this morning.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Trump administration is considering adding a citizenship and work authorization
- 3:39Speaker 2: to next year's federal tax reform. The 1040 draft includes
- 3:45Speaker 2: a question that says, yes or no, at the time
- 3:48Speaker 2: you file your return, are you and your spouse filing
- 3:51Speaker 2: jointly a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or alien lawfully authorized
- 3:57Speaker 2: to work in the U.S. Supreme Court is going to
- 4:01Speaker 2: allow the administration to continue deporting people to other countries
- 4:05Speaker 2: than their home country while they consider the greater ramifications
- 4:11Speaker 2: on whatever.
- 4:11Speaker 4: Legality that policy.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Has Florida one would think already had a law saying
- 4:21Speaker 2: you shouldn't get taxpayer money if you're not a citizen
- 4:24Speaker 2: but apparently even in Florida Illegal immigrants had been getting
- 4:28Speaker 2: taxpayer-funded training at career schools like Mohammed Atta and all
- 4:34Speaker 2: those folks learning to fly. Probably taxpayer-funded. This expands the
- 4:39Speaker 2: state's restriction on public education as officials prioritize citizens and
- 4:44Speaker 2: legal residents for workforce training. Damn nice of them. I'm sorry,
- 4:49Speaker 2: I misspoke. Mohammed Atta and the rest of the September
- 4:52Speaker 2: 11th terrorists were actually visa overstays. They had years... since
- 4:57Speaker 2: had their visa expire. They were not here illegally per se.
- 5:03Speaker 2: President Trump unveiled a new website after meeting with tech
- 5:07Speaker 2: giants yesterday, America.gov. The website is an AI-powered portal designed
- 5:13Speaker 2: to give you an entry point to navigate the federal government.
- 5:17Speaker 2: This should tell you all you needed to know about
- 5:20Speaker 2: the federal government if you need AI to figure it out.
- 5:25Speaker 2: President Trump, after that meeting with the AI executives, released
- 5:29Speaker 2: a document that sets an accord on AI self-governance. The
- 5:36Speaker 2: president called it morally binding and sets up an independent
- 5:42Speaker 2: monitoring system and external auditors to assess whether AI regulations
- 5:48Speaker 2: are being followed. And Special Counsel Jack Smith defended his
- 5:53Speaker 2: persecutions of President Trump and his investigative tactics yesterday in
- 5:58Speaker 2: front of a Senate subcommittee. And the administration has withdrawn
- 6:04Speaker 2: us from the top European anti-corruption commission. Our friends at

- 7:02Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 7:07Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch, and nitric
- 7:12Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 7:17Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 7:22Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
- 7:27Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 7:31Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 7:35Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,

- 9:02Speaker 9: You were strolling along in goodwill. When just past that
- 9:05Speaker 9: mid-century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them, nestled
- 9:08Speaker 9: in their display case.
- 9:10Speaker 5: Miniature donut earrings. Oh, yes!

- 9:57Speaker 12: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
- 10:02Speaker 12: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 10:08Speaker 12: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 12: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 12: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 10:21Speaker 12: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 10:23Speaker 12: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 10:27Speaker 12: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 10:32Speaker 12: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 10:36Speaker 12: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
- 10:40Speaker 12: Eat better.
- 10:42Speaker 13: Get moving.

- 12:04Speaker 4: Uh, you should wait 30 minutes.
- 12:07Speaker 17: Okay, don't tell me what to do.

- 12:26Speaker 4: Ready to go?
- 12:27Speaker 22: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 12:29Speaker 18: Yeah, I'm pretty sober.
- 12:32Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 12:35Speaker 19: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 12:39Speaker 19: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 12:42Speaker 19: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message

- 13:13Speaker 1: This is Independence from Virginia, again, first thing today, by
- 13:19Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:25Speaker 2: Searching for a friend to share my time.
- 13:29Speaker 5: Looking for a mountain.
- 13:31Speaker 23: I can climb Ain't afraid of.
- 13:34Speaker 19: Death or no good do Do the best that I.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Can do With the spirit of the wild running free I.
- 13:48Speaker 13: Got the spirit of the wild.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Inside of me Happy Ted's Day, where we celebrate the
- 13:55Speaker 2: idea that God has gifted you some specific things to
- 13:58Speaker 2: deliver to your community. Knowledge of that is key to
- 14:04Speaker 2: a happy life, but along with that comes from the
- 14:07Speaker 2: expertise learned in the pursuit of same, and then the
- 14:13Speaker 2: application of it. Because once you know what God's gifted
- 14:16Speaker 2: you to do, how could you not be happy doing it?
- 14:19Speaker 2: I believe John Kennedy... feels that way about representing the
- 14:24Speaker 2: Louisianans in the U.S. Senate. Judge for yourself here.
- 14:30Speaker 18: Again, I have no idea about that. What my job was.
- 14:34Speaker 16: I don't know anything about that. Do you believe in
- 14:36Speaker 16: the Tooth Fairy?
- 14:39Speaker 18: I do not.
- 14:41Speaker 16: How about the Easter Bunny?
- 14:45Speaker 18: I no longer believe in the Easter Bunny.
- 14:47Speaker 2: So you have to give You Don't Know Jack Smith
- 14:51Speaker 2: some credit He could have gone full on Tony, take
- 14:54Speaker 2: the fifth, leave the cannolis Fauci and and answered on
- 14:59Speaker 2: advice of counsel. I plead Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination
- 15:05Speaker 2: regarding the Easter Bunny or those. But John Kennedy had
- 15:11Speaker 2: a point he was getting to regarding Jack Smith's trolling
- 15:16Speaker 2: of phone records.
- 15:17Speaker 16: Do you think Jimmy Hoffa died of natural causes?
- 15:21Speaker 13: I do not.
- 15:22Speaker 12: Okay.
- 15:24Speaker 2: That was important, by the way.
- 15:26Speaker 16: You sought the phone records of a bunch of U.S. senators, right?
- 15:35Speaker 18: We sought the toll records, non-content records.
- 15:38Speaker 16: Any Democrats or just Republicans?
- 15:43Speaker 18: If President Trump had reached out to Democrats to.
- 15:46Speaker 16: Further his- Yeah, but I'm just trying to get the facts.
- 15:48Speaker 16: Were there any Democrats he sought their phone records? Just Republicans, right?
- 15:52Speaker 18: The toll records that we sought were relevant to the investigation,
- 15:57Speaker 18: and they were Republican.
- 15:58Speaker 16: I'm asking you.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Toll records. See, the thing is, your phone already has
- 16:05Speaker 2: you on record saying that you allow certain providers of
- 16:09Speaker 2: service to share your information with third parties. In some cases,
- 16:13Speaker 2: the third parties are the Department of Justice, special prosecutors.
- 16:19Speaker 2: And then from those toll records, they go to a
- 16:21Speaker 2: FISA judge. who is very strict. I remember Tom Ridge.
- 16:25Speaker 2: Tom Ridge stood three feet from me in the WCOJ
- 16:31Speaker 2: studios in Westchester, Pennsylvania, weeks before leaving his office as
- 16:38Speaker 2: governor of Pennsylvania to take over the Department of Homeland Security.
- 16:42Speaker 2: And I said, Tom, how is any of this constitutional?
- 16:46Speaker 2: And he said, oh, these FISA judges, they're going to
- 16:49Speaker 2: be strict. They're going to be strict, Joe. Of course,
- 16:53Speaker 2: that wasn't the answer to the question. The question was,
- 16:56Speaker 2: how is it constitutional? There's nothing in the Constitution about
- 17:00Speaker 2: saying anything's okay as long as it's strictly enforced. 434-882-4217.
- 17:07Speaker 2: We'll get back into more of John Kennedy's grilling of,
- 17:12Speaker 2: you don't know, Jack Smith. But let me see who
- 17:15Speaker 2: this is, because as I said, this isn't lip service.
- 17:18Speaker 2: I'm not like a politician. If I say you're the
- 17:20Speaker 2: most important part of the conversation, I mean it. And
- 17:24Speaker 2: here to adjunct to that, to be secondary to you,
- 17:28Speaker 2: is somebody on the phone. Good morning. Who's this?
- 17:31Speaker 24: Hey, good morning, Joe.
- 17:32Speaker 2: It's Joel. Good morning, Joel. Still raining in Arizona?
- 17:36Speaker 25: No.
- 17:37Speaker 24: I'm trying to think of the hurricane that came through Mexico,
- 17:41Speaker 24: now it's hitting New Mexico and then Texas.
- 17:44Speaker 18: But I think it's Holly or Hollow.
- 17:47Speaker 24: But anyway, so my dad used to say, because he
- 17:51Speaker 24: came over from Italy once, and went through the Bronx
- 17:54Speaker 24: and he used to say, all right, don't give me
- 17:56Speaker 24: any of your lippy.
- 17:59Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. Don't be lippy about it. So what's, what,
- 18:03Speaker 2: what has triggered you this morning?
- 18:05Speaker 24: Oh, I'm triggered. So a lot of things we're talking
- 18:09Speaker 24: about documentation and facts.
- 18:12Speaker 2: And ideas, crazy things like that.
- 18:16Speaker 26: Yeah.
- 18:16Speaker 24: You know, so I was looking up driver's licenses right now.
- 18:21Speaker 24: So most, states, all 50 states require the real ID.
- 18:26Speaker 24: And then I would say, and then I, there's certain requirements, passport,
- 18:30Speaker 24: you know, birth certificate, other documents, but I looked up,
- 18:35Speaker 24: I said, now, what does a, a illegal alien or
- 18:40Speaker 24: what they would say a non-compliant alternative would be? So
- 18:44Speaker 24: there's 19 states.
- 18:45Speaker 27: I don't have them all here.
- 18:46Speaker 24: I'm not going to read them off, but, and the
- 18:48Speaker 24: district of Columbia is, allow unauthorized immigrants. So even the
- 18:53Speaker 24: way they're writing that statute, they shouldn't be saying unauthorized immigrants,
- 18:59Speaker 24: they should be saying illegal aliens, because if you're not
- 19:03Speaker 24: authorized to be here, you're an illegal alien. Now, they say.
- 19:07Speaker 2: Don't brush past this. Hang on a second, Joel. Don't
- 19:10Speaker 2: brush past this, because these turns of a phrase are
- 19:15Speaker 2: much more dire than just being woke. Because these phrases
- 19:22Speaker 2: have considerably different weight under the law. This was why
- 19:29Speaker 2: when they came up with that DNS smartphone app and
- 19:36Speaker 2: the activists took a basket full of smartphones down to
- 19:39Speaker 2: that way station in central Mexico that supposedly didn't exist
- 19:45Speaker 2: except for all the videos of buses pulling into it.
- 19:49Speaker 2: And they would distribute these smartphones to people who had
- 19:51Speaker 2: never had any phone and said, listen, go on here,
- 19:55Speaker 2: donde esta, and they would show them and in some
- 20:00Speaker 2: cases actually walk them through the application for asylum. And
- 20:04Speaker 2: this became the creation of, in air quotes, legality. of
- 20:10Speaker 2: these folks being in the United States. This is all
- 20:14Speaker 2: legal shenanigans, Joel.
- 20:16Speaker 24: Well, I was trying to, I was going to get
- 20:18Speaker 24: to the rest of the story.
- 20:21Speaker 2: So the, well, but that part, that part about the
- 20:23Speaker 2: phrases is very important to the rest of the story.
- 20:27Speaker 15: Oh, I know.
- 20:27Speaker 24: It's, it's like an irritant. It's like having an allergic
- 20:30Speaker 24: reaction to it. It's just wait, wait, not to scratch.
- 20:33Speaker 18: It right now.
- 20:34Speaker 2: I think more so than that. I think this, I think,
- 20:36Speaker 2: I think the legal manipulation of the language has been
- 20:42Speaker 2: the key to this the whole time.
- 20:44Speaker 16: I agree.
- 20:45Speaker 2: So anyway, go ahead.
- 20:46Speaker 11: I agree.
- 20:47Speaker 24: So they say the alternatives are specifically marked that they
- 20:52Speaker 24: cannot use for valid federal purposes. It cannot be used
- 20:55Speaker 24: to board domestic flights or enter secures. Now, the requirements
- 21:00Speaker 24: say that you must get a standard state license. Applicants
- 21:04Speaker 24: must typically... have an alternative proof such as a foreign
- 21:08Speaker 24: passport or consular ID or foreign birth certificate. Now, what
- 21:13Speaker 24: if you don't have any of those? I'm wondering, since
- 21:16Speaker 24: they reclassified as unauthorized immigrant, then that means, like you said,
- 21:22Speaker 24: it throws out all the other stuff and it's just
- 21:26Speaker 24: a bunch of nonsense. Now, I'm wondering if President Trump
- 21:31Speaker 24: and also the State Department and all these other states
- 21:35Speaker 24: you know, state DMVs are actually doing anything about it.
- 21:40Speaker 24: And if, if, if that could be, if that would
- 21:44Speaker 24: be a way to, to clear, because if that's a,
- 21:47Speaker 24: because if that's an unauthorized person and they're in there
- 21:51Speaker 24: and let's say they have a traffic stop and they're
- 21:54Speaker 24: going to have to go into a building, maybe let's
- 21:56Speaker 24: say they, let's say they cross state lines.
- 21:58Speaker 2: But that's, but that was the whole point of the
- 21:59Speaker 2: 528 program.

- 23:10Speaker 21: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, SUV, or light truck,
- 23:14Speaker 21: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
- 23:16Speaker 21: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
- 23:20Speaker 21: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
- 23:23Speaker 21: the rule. Many high-end or luxury vehicles call for premium
- 23:26Speaker 21: or higher octane fuel. And the reason for this is
- 23:29Speaker 21: not just due to the octane rating. There are better
- 23:31Speaker 21: fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know, too,
- 23:35Speaker 21: that vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
- 23:37Speaker 21: with carbon deposits. So they pack more cleaning power into
- 23:40Speaker 21: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
- 23:44Speaker 21: your fuel choices around, say, every third tankful, you may
- 23:47Speaker 21: find better performance and miles per gallon because you are
- 23:50Speaker 21: cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive. Just
- 23:53Speaker 21: don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them anytime soon.
- 23:56Speaker 21: With your automotive prescription, I'm Ron Anany and The Car Doctor.
- 23:59Speaker 21: See you next time.
- 24:03Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 24:08Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
- 24:13Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 24:18Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 24:23Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased. bringing blood, oxygen,
- 24:28Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 24:32Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 24:36Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 24:39Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 24:42Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,

- 28:21Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Time for us to do the thing that's most annoying
- 28:29Speaker 2: to sports fans in the listening area, and that is
- 28:33Speaker 2: do what they call, and not me, not me. I
- 28:35Speaker 2: don't say it. Some people say it. It's like us
- 28:39Speaker 2: kids from Queens. That's one of our defenses. I'm not
- 28:41Speaker 2: saying that. Some people tell me. This is the best
- 28:45Speaker 2: sports talk radio on radio.
- 28:48Speaker 5: Oh, you're ridiculous.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Come on.
- 28:50Speaker 2: That's not me. No, I mean, people tell me. They
- 28:52Speaker 2: tell me they do. It's amazing. He's amazing. He's the
- 28:57Speaker 2: best there is.
- 28:58Speaker 10: Okay, three hours at 9 o'clock, you've got to change
- 29:00Speaker 10: your entire format. So we can get all kinds of
- 29:04Speaker 10: Dan Patrick guys, and I can get the brother of
- 29:06Speaker 10: Oral Hershiser, and I can get Curtis Strange, and anyway,
- 29:10Speaker 10: all that stuff.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Anyway, it's great to talk to you. Welcome back.
- 29:14Speaker 10: Well, thanks for letting me get my feet on the ground.
- 29:16Speaker 2: Had a great Monday.
- 29:17Speaker 10: We'll talk more about it as the week goes on
- 29:19Speaker 10: with Bud. And this week, certainly on Foster and Friends.
- 29:23Speaker 2: Charity Golf Tournament worked well?
- 29:26Speaker 10: Yeah. I know he raised over $ 120, 000 for the whole thing.
- 29:31Speaker 10: And it was, yeah, there was a girl on the committee.
- 29:35Speaker 10: So Bud introduced me in front of 150 people. And,
- 29:38Speaker 10: you know, former voice of the Cavaliers And there.
- 29:40Speaker 2: Was one boo, only one boo.
- 29:42Speaker 10: And I thought, well, OK, this is positive. So I
- 29:46Speaker 10: went up to the girl that was on the committee.
- 29:48Speaker 10: Her name is Christina, just a great, great lady and
- 29:50Speaker 10: puts everything together. And I said, Christina, I felt pretty good.
- 29:53Speaker 10: I only got one boo. She said, yeah, that was me.
- 29:56Speaker 2: You know, so it was no respect at all.
- 30:00Speaker 10: But there were a lot of pro guys there and
- 30:03Speaker 10: just a lot of guys that have been in the league.
- 30:07Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just ridiculous.
- 30:08Speaker 1: It was fun.
- 30:08Speaker 2: It was way too fun.
- 30:09Speaker 10: All right, I'm going to talk racing first. I'll get
- 30:11Speaker 10: into baseball and the WNBA with Asia Wilson last night,
- 30:15Speaker 10: what happened to her too. But yesterday, RFK Racing announced
- 30:19Speaker 10: that some guy named Brad Kozlowski will no longer drive
- 30:25Speaker 10: the number six Ford after the 26th season.
- 30:28Speaker 2: We got, what, six races left.
- 30:29Speaker 10: The 42-year-old Drivers' Cup Series future up in the air
- 30:32Speaker 10: now raises questions about what's going to happen to the
- 30:35Speaker 10: K in RFK as the organization moves into 2027. So
- 30:40Speaker 10: that was kind of an interesting headline from the world
- 30:42Speaker 10: of racing. The circuit will move to Vegas this Sunday.
- 30:45Speaker 10: The top five, if you're following, Kyle Larson, Denny Hamlin,
- 30:48Speaker 10: Christopher Bell, Joey Logano, and Ryan Blaney. And if you
- 30:52Speaker 10: heard the Mac Minute today, how about the Corey Heim story?
- 30:55Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 30:56Speaker 10: How about that little race at Martinsville turned into a
- 31:00Speaker 10: Donnybrook behind the hot dog stand?
- 31:03Speaker 2: That's why people go to Martinsville. I went to the
- 31:07Speaker 2: fights and a race broke out.
- 31:09Speaker 10: Exactly.
- 31:10Speaker 2: That's exactly right.
- 31:11Speaker 5: So anyway, interesting stuff.
- 31:13Speaker 2: All right.
- 31:13Speaker 10: The baseball last night, what happened?
- 31:15Speaker 2: How much fun?
- 31:16Speaker 10: And I got home one time to see the end
- 31:17Speaker 10: of the Phillies Braves, listen to it on radio. By
- 31:22Speaker 10: the way, I got to look up, the Phillies broadcast team,
- 31:26Speaker 10: which now you can hear a lot of the broadcasts,
- 31:31Speaker 10: and you can go to your phone, of course, and
- 31:33Speaker 10: there are apps.
- 31:34Speaker 2: The local voices, yeah.
- 31:35Speaker 10: Well, yeah, they sounded like two 17-year-old kids. I don't
- 31:40Speaker 10: know who they are.
- 31:40Speaker 2: I got to look them up.
- 31:42Speaker 10: It just came to me this morning, and I got
- 31:45Speaker 10: to find out who they are. Probably two 17-year-old kids. Yeah,
- 31:48Speaker 10: it might be. I mean, I was just I was shocked.
- 31:51Speaker 10: But anyway, with the great win and what went on
- 31:55Speaker 10: last night.
- 31:55Speaker 2: All right.
- 31:56Speaker 10: Ben Rice hit his 16th Grand Slam in New York
- 32:00Speaker 10: franchise in the Yankee franchise postgame history. He's a Massachusetts kid.
- 32:05Speaker 14: All right.
- 32:06Speaker 10: Adding a layer, of course, to beating the Sox. He
- 32:08Speaker 10: played with Cam Schlittler and Spencer Jones. Now, Schlittler had
- 32:13Speaker 10: a pretty good night last night, six and a third,
- 32:15Speaker 10: two hits, 10 Ks, 117 pitches, 77 for strikes, and
- 32:19Speaker 10: Spencer Jones, one for three, scored a couple of runs.
- 32:23Speaker 10: So naturally, the Yankee press, knowing that Ben Rice came
- 32:28Speaker 10: up with these guys, and, you know, how much fun
- 32:30Speaker 10: is it? Well, it's not literally, but after all, these
- 32:33Speaker 10: are former teammates.
- 32:34Speaker 5: Yeah, it's super fun.
- 32:35Speaker 29: I mean, all of us.
- 32:37Speaker 27: like came up with one another in a way, you know,
- 32:39Speaker 27: there was some overlap, you know, maybe a couple of
- 32:41Speaker 27: guys were ahead of others, but you know, now we're,
- 32:45Speaker 27: now we're all here, um, in the big leagues and
- 32:47Speaker 27: it's been so cool seeing each guy, like, have success
- 32:52Speaker 27: and carve out their own role and definitely a tight-knit group,
- 32:55Speaker 27: and we take pride in that.
- 32:57Speaker 10: Yeah, the kid is so humble. He speaks fluent Spanish,
- 33:00Speaker 10: something that he picked up. Oh, yes, Joe Thomas, Thomas Media.
- 33:03Speaker 2: Can I point out again, yet again for the Yankee
- 33:06Speaker 2: fan in the audience, that it always seems to be,
- 33:11Speaker 2: whether it's a Derek Jeter or Mariano Rivera, I mean,
- 33:14Speaker 2: they go out and they buy John Carlos Stanton and
- 33:17Speaker 2: they go out, by the way, but it's these homegrown
- 33:20Speaker 2: guys who, that are always the case, whether it's Thurman
- 33:23Speaker 2: Munson or Derek Jeter.
- 33:27Speaker 10: Where's Stanton? Where's Judge?
- 33:29Speaker 2: Well, Judge is a homegrown guy. I mean, you can
- 33:33Speaker 2: throw him into the mix there.
- 33:35Speaker 10: But still, they're not doing anything.
- 33:38Speaker 2: It's a postseason.
- 33:39Speaker 10: It's the Ben Rices of the world. That's a great story.
- 33:42Speaker 10: Always the case. So anyway, it should be fun. It's
- 33:45Speaker 10: going to be a fun series. The Padres... They jumped
- 33:48Speaker 10: all over the Cubs last night. Fernando Tatis, a lead-off
- 33:52Speaker 10: home run against the Cubs. I mean, 8-0.
- 33:55Speaker 2: They just– Stomping on the– Michael.
- 33:58Speaker 10: King had a one-hitter through– See, but this is what
- 34:01Speaker 10: happens when you don't have the Pope.
- 34:02Speaker 2: You don't have the Pope on your side. See, the Southsiders,
- 34:08Speaker 2: they've got the Pope on their rope.
- 34:10Speaker 14: I know.
- 34:10Speaker 10: Do you see that story about the letter? It took
- 34:13Speaker 10: like 10 days to get there or whatever.
- 34:15Speaker 2: It's great stuff. So, all right.
- 34:17Speaker 10: Last night, the WNBA, which now the cool guys call
- 34:21Speaker 10: it the W. There was more drama in the W
- 34:24Speaker 10: last night, so I'll be cool. Asia Wilson of the Aces,
- 34:28Speaker 10: and they lost to the fever. Kaitlyn Clark had a
- 34:31Speaker 10: huge night with Kelsey Mitchell. Kaitlyn Clark had 14 points,
- 34:34Speaker 10: 11 assists before halftime, and that set a 30-year WNBA record.
- 34:40Speaker 10: She finished with 27, 15 dimes, and then fouled out.
- 34:44Speaker 1: Anyway, so.
- 34:47Speaker 10: There was a foul involving Sophie Cunningham and Asia Wilson
- 34:51Speaker 10: pulled out her mouthpiece and she walked toward the baseline seats.
- 34:54Speaker 10: A courtside fan stood up, pointed at her and appeared
- 34:58Speaker 10: to gesture or take a step toward her. So naturally
- 35:03Speaker 10: Asia's at one, you don't point at me. And so,
- 35:06Speaker 10: you know, we're getting to this point thing, you know,
- 35:08Speaker 10: where Sophie started a trend, but anyway, post game Asia Wilson,
- 35:13Speaker 10: not happy with what happened.
- 35:15Speaker 26: I don't give a damn what you said. I don't
- 35:17Speaker 26: give a damn how you said it. The tone, that
- 35:19Speaker 26: is unacceptable. You don't step towards me. You never should
- 35:22Speaker 26: step and point at me. And how he gets back
- 35:24Speaker 26: in the game because they said he didn't do anything.
- 35:26Speaker 5: Of course he didn't.
- 35:27Speaker 26: You don't know me at all to come and step
- 35:29Speaker 26: towards me and point at me and say anything out
- 35:32Speaker 26: your mouth to me.
- 35:33Speaker 23: So, yeah.
- 35:34Speaker 10: So, yeah, I was upset.
- 35:35Speaker 2: So that's the way, you know. Well, as I said,
- 35:39Speaker 2: why not?
- 35:39Speaker 10: It's the playoffs and the WNBA. We need drama to
- 35:43Speaker 10: keep things alive. We need this.
- 35:47Speaker 2: How much did the guy pay for his courtside seats?
- 35:50Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 35:50Speaker 10: But I mean, you know, Caitlin caught a wicked elbow
- 35:53Speaker 10: and got knocked down. And yeah, this is going to
- 35:57Speaker 10: be probably a great postseason. New York became the first
- 36:00Speaker 10: number eight seed to eliminate a top seed in the
- 36:03Speaker 10: league's 30-year history because the Liberty beat the Lynx 87-71.
- 36:07Speaker 10: Trying to get some of that Knicks mojo. Yeah, yeah.
- 36:12Speaker 10: So anyway, but day two of the baseball playoffs again. Um,
- 36:16Speaker 10: and so after, you know, what happened, but the white socks,
- 36:19Speaker 10: I talked to a lady, I was flying because we
- 36:21Speaker 10: landed midway airport and then had midway to Orlando. And
- 36:25Speaker 10: I had a lady sitting next to me who was,
- 36:27Speaker 10: and I, she was from Chicago a lifetime.
- 36:29Speaker 2: And I said, who are you rooting for?
- 36:31Speaker 10: And she goes, I got to root for both. And
- 36:33Speaker 10: I said, that sounds weird. I go, if you're in Chicago,
- 36:35Speaker 10: I thought you had to take a side, either north
- 36:38Speaker 10: side or south side, right? But the White Sox win 6-3.
- 36:41Speaker 10: But the Cubs, they got pummeled. And the Padres are
- 36:44Speaker 10: red hot, or as they say, white hot. They have
- 36:46Speaker 10: won 18 of their last 21 games heading into this.
- 36:50Speaker 2: That's always the case.
- 36:50Speaker 1: How many times.
- 37:03Speaker 2: Have we seen this? The team, and I was interested
- 37:05Speaker 2: to see how Houston comported themselves, you know, scrambling just
- 37:08Speaker 2: to get to a 500 record win their division because
- 37:11Speaker 2: I know when the Capitals won the Stanley Cup, for
- 37:15Speaker 2: years they were the number one team in the NHL
- 37:18Speaker 2: to get ousted. They would always get ousted in the
- 37:20Speaker 2: first round. And then the year they won the Cup,
- 37:23Speaker 2: they barely made it into the playoffs like the last
- 37:26Speaker 2: day of the season. Those are always the team to
- 37:28Speaker 2: look out for, the ones that have to scramble. But
- 37:30Speaker 2: I do want to thank All the participants in the
- 37:35Speaker 2: Major League Baseball playoffs, as a Washington Nationals fan and affiliate,
- 37:44Speaker 2: it gave us hope that our bullpen isn't nearly as
- 37:47Speaker 2: bad as everyone else's after watching the Phillies pull a
- 37:52Speaker 2: Washington Nationals and give up a three-run home run in
- 37:55Speaker 2: the eighth.
- 37:56Speaker 10: They have some things to bolster.
- 37:58Speaker 2: Not good. Thank you, Matt.
- 38:00Speaker 26: All right.
- 38:01Speaker 17: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
- 38:05Speaker 17: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
- 38:09Speaker 17: the police? At a time when America's neighborhoods need the

- 39:04Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 39:09Speaker 6: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
- 39:14Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 39:18Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 39:23Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
- 39:28Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 39:33Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 39:36Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 39:40Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 39:42Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric oxide
- 39:47Speaker 6: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

- 40:33Speaker 22: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
- 40:37Speaker 22: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
- 40:42Speaker 22: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
- 40:45Speaker 22: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
- 40:49Speaker 22: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
- 40:53Speaker 22: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
- 40:57Speaker 22: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
- 41:00Speaker 22: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

- 41:08Speaker 22: I speak with my patients, I urge them to get
- 41:10Speaker 22: all their recommended vaccines. Now I'm urging you to speak
- 41:14Speaker 22: with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
- 41:17Speaker 22: For more information about the vaccines that are recommended for

- 43:56Speaker 27: It's on.
- 44:13Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 44:21Speaker 2: Our Caring Beyond Cancer programming, and it's interesting, I was just,
- 44:28Speaker 2: you know, last visit was with Dr. Craig Portell, who
- 44:33Speaker 2: was actually my oncologist. Somebody emailed me, is there a
- 44:38Speaker 2: category oncologist to the stars? I said, I guess you
- 44:41Speaker 2: would have to then first consider me a star before
- 44:45Speaker 2: any such things would attach. But it's been a longstanding
- 44:51Speaker 2: tradition on this program to take some time and to
- 44:54Speaker 2: talk about this emperor of all maladies, which is what
- 44:59Speaker 2: they called it in the great documentary before Ken Burns
- 45:03Speaker 2: lost it and decided to do political ads instead of
- 45:07Speaker 2: just great documentaries there. But it certainly is one of
- 45:14Speaker 2: the most important things that we can talk about. And
- 45:20Speaker 2: perhaps one of the most important parts of that is
- 45:24Speaker 2: prostate cancer. When I understand it's only half the audience.
- 45:28Speaker 2: is got to worry about it. And you're all sitting
- 45:32Speaker 2: gingerly again. All of a sudden, you all squinched up.
- 45:35Speaker 2: And I don't want you to do that. Dr. Naseeb
- 45:38Speaker 2: Hidar is on with us to talk about Prostate Cancer
- 45:42Speaker 2: Awareness Month. Dr. Hidar, thank you for taking a little
- 45:46Speaker 2: time out. How are you doing this morning?
- 45:48Speaker 1: I'm good.
- 45:49Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 45:50Speaker 27: So.
- 45:51Speaker 2: guys just still, I think the numbers are going down.
- 45:56Speaker 2: I think there is movement amongst the population that make
- 46:00Speaker 2: us less unlikely to go get our tests for prostate cancer.
- 46:07Speaker 2: Is there any statistical proof to that or am I
- 46:10Speaker 2: just whistling past the graveyard hoping that that's true?
- 46:15Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a good question. So in 2012, the US
- 46:20Speaker 11: Preventive Services Task Force decided to recommend against prostate cancer screening,
- 46:29Speaker 11: mainly because the trials that were done at that point
- 46:32Speaker 11: didn't show a benefit in survival for men who were
- 46:36Speaker 11: screened for prostate cancer. But those numbers were just eight-year numbers.
- 46:42Speaker 11: And also they cited that treatment for prostate cancer and
- 46:45Speaker 11: the anxiety associated.
- 46:46Speaker 2: With it.
- 46:49Speaker 11: Were not worth the risk of having a procedure or
- 46:53Speaker 11: having treatment for prostate cancer. But since then, and we
- 47:00Speaker 11: saw a few years ago a dip in the incidence
- 47:03Speaker 11: or how commonly we diagnose prostate cancer. But since then,
- 47:09Speaker 11: they've They've gone back from that statement and then just
- 47:13Speaker 11: say it's decision-making between the provider and the patient. And
- 47:19Speaker 11: since then, we're still seeing an uptake in the incidence.
- 47:23Speaker 11: So the past few years, we're seeing an uptake in
- 47:25Speaker 11: the incidence. Why is it important? Because the more we catch,
- 47:29Speaker 11: the more we can actually cure. And since then, those studies.
- 47:34Speaker 2: That the U.S.
- 47:35Speaker 11: Preventive Services Task Force cited, have matured to 15 years
- 47:41Speaker 11: and we've seen tremendous survival benefit for these patients because
- 47:47Speaker 11: prostate cancer isn't a fast-growing cancer.
- 47:50Speaker 5: It takes many years.
- 47:51Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
- 47:53Speaker 11: It takes many years to spread and it takes many
- 47:57Speaker 11: years to cause lethality.
- 47:59Speaker 2: So catching it early, yeah. Well, catching it early has
- 48:04Speaker 2: always been, as long as I can remember, My dad
- 48:08Speaker 2: had prostate cancer, and it was advanced to the point
- 48:12Speaker 2: where they put radioactive seeds. I guess, I don't know
- 48:16Speaker 2: if that's still a treatment or not. Knock wood, I
- 48:20Speaker 2: haven't needed that kind of thing. But it was extreme measures.
- 48:26Speaker 2: And the whole point of Prostate Cancer Awareness Month was
- 48:30Speaker 2: to get us catching it early enough so that the
- 48:34Speaker 2: treatments didn't have to be so severe, right, Dr. Haidar?
- 48:39Speaker 11: Yeah, so let me just put things in perspective. So
- 48:43Speaker 11: every year in the United States, more than 300,000 men,
- 48:46Speaker 11: around 330,000 to 340,000 men, get diagnosed with prostate cancer.
- 48:48Speaker 11: And around 34,000 to 35,000 men die from prostate cancer.
- 48:58Speaker 11: So you can see like the stark difference of like
- 49:01Speaker 11: 90% of men will not probably die from their prostate cancer.
- 49:05Speaker 11: So now we understand better, depending on how the cancer
- 49:10Speaker 11: looks like after we diagnose it, what its stage is,
- 49:13Speaker 11: what its grade is, to better tailor treatment, whether we
- 49:17Speaker 11: need to be aggressive or whether we need to... just
- 49:20Speaker 11: watch it and make sure it doesn't get to a
- 49:23Speaker 11: point where it could cause metastases or it could spread
- 49:28Speaker 11: outside the organ and cause problems or even lethality. So
- 49:32Speaker 11: now we understand the biology of the cancer better over
- 49:36Speaker 11: the past couple of decades.
- 49:37Speaker 2: And with the advent of blood tests, was it PSA
- 49:43Speaker 2: or PSI levels?
- 49:45Speaker 10: Yes.
- 49:46Speaker 11: So it's the prostate-specific antigen. That's what all the societies
- 49:53Speaker 11: recommend we screen for. For prostate cancer, screen with the
- 49:57Speaker 11: PSA blood test, which is just a blood test that
- 49:59Speaker 11: can be done with a yearly physical. as long as
- 50:03Speaker 11: it's at an acceptable number which is generally generally for
- 50:06Speaker 11: the general population is less than four or less than
- 50:09Speaker 11: three depending on what sources you need but most important
- 50:14Speaker 11: is to actually have a discussion with the provider first
- 50:18Speaker 11: with your primary care first do i want to catch
- 50:21Speaker 11: a cancer that you know could you know could kill
- 50:25Speaker 11: me in the future but less likely Do I want
- 50:28Speaker 11: to know more? And I think it's worth it that
- 50:31Speaker 11: every man knows more. I know a lot of people
- 50:34Speaker 11: think that ignorance is bliss. But I'm on the other camp.
- 50:40Speaker 11: I think knowing more gives us better opportunities at figuring
- 50:44Speaker 11: out what we need to do.
- 50:45Speaker 2: I agree. Casual listeners of the program will think ignorance
- 50:50Speaker 2: is bliss is my programming philosophy. But that's just how
- 50:53Speaker 2: I play act on the stage, Dr. So what's a
- 50:59Speaker 2: good place for resources before we run out of time
- 51:02Speaker 2: for guys to maybe get past that stereotype reaction to
- 51:07Speaker 2: the idea of getting prostate screening?
- 51:11Speaker 11: So there's a lot of good reading material from the
- 51:14Speaker 11: Prostate Cancer Foundation online and as well as the National
- 51:18Speaker 11: Comprehensive Cancer Network online. There's a lot of guidelines for patients.
- 51:22Speaker 11: that's mainly tailored for patients who get diagnosed with prostate cancer.
- 51:28Speaker 11: But I think that it's worth it that every man
- 51:33Speaker 11: has a conversation with their primary care regarding screening for
- 51:37Speaker 11: prostate cancer. And I know that in the past, a
- 51:41Speaker 11: lot of men were apprehensive about it because they're worried
- 51:45Speaker 11: about the rectal exam, which honestly, in very rare instances,
- 51:50Speaker 11: a rectal exam now is needed So if a man
- 51:54Speaker 11: wants to avoid having this exam, which is uncomfortable, then
- 51:59Speaker 11: a PSA test should be good enough in most of
- 52:02Speaker 11: the cases. So if they want to avoid that, that's
- 52:06Speaker 11: something that they can do as well.
- 52:07Speaker 2: And again, it promotes the idea of early detection there, Dr. Haidt.
- 52:13Speaker 2: Thank you so much, of course, adjunct to the University
- 52:15Speaker 2: of Virginia Health System here in Virginia. And we appreciate
- 52:20Speaker 2: everything you do. For that, I appreciate taking some time
- 52:23Speaker 2: out with us this morning, and have a great morning. Yeah,
- 52:26Speaker 2: you too. Thank you. It's Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. And
- 52:33Speaker 2: you crossed your legs, too, on top of it. All right.
- 52:38Speaker 2: The stereotypes die hard, and I understand it. But believe me,
- 52:43Speaker 2: after watching what my dad had to go through and
- 52:46Speaker 2: the things that he lost control of in order to
- 52:49Speaker 2: beat the cancer, it's worth it. You know, it's true.
- 52:52Speaker 25: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
- 52:55Speaker 25: to think about what matters most when it comes to
- 52:57Speaker 25: our spending, our healthcare. This is why so many people
- 53:00Speaker 25: are joining MediShare right now. MediShare is a trusted way
