"No, It's Isn't Censorship" (Tuesday September 23, 2025, Hour 2) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

0:02
Speaker 1: So be careful with words. I like to think, yeah,
0:04
the same words you know that hurt can heal.
0:06
Speaker 2: It's the first thing today by Joe Thomas on the
0:09
Tunk Media Network. All natural and free of artificial intelligence.
0:14
Speaker 3: Stuart said, steal me stem.
0:16
Speaker 4: You have a day at least for work.
0:20
Speaker 2: When the sun comes up, drops a pet of this Scooday.
0:24
Speaker 5: Joe has everything, agenda, all the treasure set of needs.
0:29
Speaker 2: No one that Joe's as smiled he on the eggs.
0:35
Speaker 6: Let it be your Joe.
0:37
Speaker 4: Here, hold these truths.
0:40
Speaker 7: I want to be Joe.
0:43
Speaker 3: You're a brother of favor. Four three four eight eight
0:47
two four two one seven. That's our phone over. I'll
0:50
tell you the news, I'll tell you how I analyze
0:52
the news, and most importantly, I want to find out
0:55
how the news is impacting you where you are at
0:58
four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
1:02
It is a multitasker that means you can text message
1:06
via it. You can also do the traditional phone call
1:11
or getting folks on the line. Because as much as
1:14
the mainstream media wants to tell you about Jimmy Kimmel
1:18
in censorship, the big story is autism and we're gonna
1:22
have all kinds of antics this morning, because we're one
1:25
of the wild and crazy morning shows we've got. We're
1:27
gonna have some antics. We're gonna have pet antics. We're
1:30
gonna have all kinds of antics this morning. So hang
1:33
on the line with us. Let me get our first
1:35
things out of the way. And I shouldn't say it
1:37
that way, because they're important. Tech giant Oracle will be
1:41
the one running the algorithm of TikTok in the United States,
1:45
according to Trump administration official. A whistleblower at the Croton
1:51
Chronicle says that he was pressured by city government to
1:56
make a resident take a Trump flag down. President Trump
2:01
urged pregnant women to stop taking a sid of minifin
2:04
pain relievers during pregnancy. Robert F. Kennedy, Junior HHS Secretary,
2:09
the FDA is now working on a new warning label.
2:13
They also said that higher doses of vitamin B, particularly
2:18
folic acid, are needed during pregnancy. ABC announced that Jimmy
2:24
Kimmel's late night talk program will come back to the network. However,
2:28
Sinclair Broadcasting Television Stations announced they will not be carrying
2:32
the program. That'll be a contractual issue between them and
2:36
the network. None of it has anything to do with
2:39
the government. President Trump designated Antifa as a domestic terror organization.
2:45
DHS said that they will not comply with Governor Gavin
2:48
Newsom's mask ban in California, and President Trump will sit
2:53
down Thursday with Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to talk
2:56
about averting averting a potential partial government shutdown them sp
3:02
The first things for this Tuesday morning, as we engage
3:06
in our antics, pet antics, semantics, all kinds of antics.
3:11
You can bring your own antics to the playground as well.
3:14
Good morning, You're on the air with Joe Thomas. First
3:16
thing this morning. Who's thish Joe, It's Clark. Hey, Clark,
3:20
how are you this morning.
3:22
Speaker 8: I'm very excited Joe, as I'm quite sure.
3:25
Speaker 3: You are about the HHS, or about Jimmy Kimmel not
3:29
being censored anymore.
3:31
Speaker 8: Their unsensored Jimmy Kimmel. Maybe that's what they ought to
3:34
call it, Jimmy Kimmel uncensored.
3:36
Speaker 3: Oh, that would be something I think we we we
3:40
saw that when he used to work with Adam Carolla
3:42
on The Man Show, and they WHOA.
3:45
Speaker 8: Now wait a minute, we'll get there in a minute. Okay,
3:47
So how many shows was Jimmy Kensel Jimmy Kimmel censored
3:52
for three?
3:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't keep score. Really didn't matter that much
3:57
to me outside of the fact that it's not censorship.
4:00
But that's okay.
4:02
Speaker 8: So clearly he's been censored for three or four shows,
4:06
which would be about the amount of time he'd take
4:08
off if he felt like it. And uh, I don't know,
4:13
kind of got a wonder were his ratings kind of
4:16
in the dumps?
4:17
Speaker 3: Oh they were worse than Stephen Colbert. Yeah, they were
4:20
worse than Stephen Colbert's.
4:22
Speaker 8: Yeah, so I don't know. Joe seems like a publicity
4:27
stunt to me.
4:28
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh that's why I pointed out the I pointed
4:31
out the only person matter about this publicity stunt is
4:34
Howard Stern, who had it overwhelmed his publicity stunt. And
4:39
you know, you and me were just out here telling
4:41
the truth in the morning. How can we this? We
4:43
need to we need to focus group on how do
4:46
we make telling the truth of publicity stunt?
4:49
Speaker 8: Now you went back to the Man's show for a second, Yeah,
4:56
had three choices the way we did back in the day.
4:59
Joe the show reruns, Jimmy Kimmel, and I don't know.
5:09
I love Lucy where you run. Would anybody be watching
5:14
Jimmy Kimmel uncensored?
5:17
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I mean, you know, part of
5:19
the and I hate to be this guy, but the
5:25
line that everyone's pointing to wasn't even a good line.
5:28
I mean, it was a lame joke. I mean it
5:30
wasn't even I didn't even sense it as a joke
5:32
as more of a critique. And okay, if you want
5:37
to say it was a joke, Okay, that's kind of
5:41
a stretch. But that's just my view of it. I
5:44
don't carry his show never.
5:45
Speaker 8: Haf I'm not gonna watch him, so pass my bedtime anyway.
5:53
So let's see now. In the first place, I'll listen
5:59
to what the President and RFK Junior said, And they
6:03
didn't say a city of menifine caused anything. They said
6:08
that there was an association with Okay, so nobody said
6:17
it caused it. I'm trying to remember, did anybody reflexively
6:23
defend bourbon when we determine what fetal alcohol syndrome was.
6:28
Speaker 3: I don't remember that one. You know, I'm not as
6:30
old as some, but I don't think there was, and
6:34
I'm sure there was a bourbon lobby trying to trying
6:39
to push back against it. I just don't think there
6:41
were as many resources to get you know, your own
6:45
blog posts out there and substack accounts. Yeah, I don't know.
6:49
Speaker 8: I don't remember like Big Tobacco really lashing out when
6:54
they said that smoking when you were pregnant was a
6:57
bad thing.
6:58
Speaker 3: I can I do record little of that.
7:01
Speaker 9: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
7:05
turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
7:07
Speaker 8: It was Medishare that came through for us, and there
7:10
was no hassles, there was no problem.
7:12
Speaker 9: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
7:16
of such an incredible ministry.
7:17
Speaker 10: Meta Share is a Biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
7:21
share each other's medical expenses.
7:23
Speaker 11: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
7:28
with you through the hardest times of your life.
7:30
Speaker 10: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years
7:34
old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
7:37
each other's medical bills.
7:39
Speaker 12: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
7:41
Speaker 13: You can focus on on supporting other people.
7:43
Speaker 14: Meta share is affordable, Medishare is Biblical, Medishare is family.
7:47
Speaker 10: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
7:50
your healthcare and support your family when you need it.
7:53
Call eight five five Share forty eight five five share forty.
7:58
That's eight five five share forty.
8:04
Speaker 15: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
8:08
Speaker 12: Yes?
8:08
Speaker 15: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
8:13
oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
8:18
to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
8:23
By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
8:28
and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
8:32
and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
8:36
precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
8:39
energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
8:42
your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide,
8:47
can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

Speaker 17: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
9:37
than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
9:41
the one for Newma coccle disease can protect adults from
9:44
illnesses that can cause misdays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
9:49
New macccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
9:53
or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
9:56
of an infection that can spread from person to person.
10:00
Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
10:04
I'm doctor Susan Reem of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.
10:08
When I speak with my patients, I urge them to
10:10
get all their recommended vaccines. Now, I'm urging you to
10:14
speak with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
10:17

10:20
adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,

13:20
Speaker 2: Amaze your friends here. In first Thing Today by Joe Thomas.
13:25
Speaker 19: Doctor doctor didn't the news.
13:28
Speaker 7: I gotta's loving you.
13:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do.
13:38
Speaker 20: The first day, all of these great doctors behind me
13:41
were there. I told them, this is what we got
13:43
to We have to find out because when you go
13:45
from twenty thousand to ten thousand, and then you go
13:49
to twelve, you know there's something artificial. They're taking something.
13:56
Speaker 3: Teresa writes into JT in the Morning Radio, Gmail dot com,
14:00
Listening Up and Lowell WCAP. She says typical Trump apologist
14:08
disregard the president's rampant censorship and police state activities, and
14:14
discuss how babies get autism. It is a population issue, Joe.
14:20
We have too many people on this planet. Ask any
14:25
legitimate scientist, Terry. I appreciate it, and I do appreciate
14:29
the phone call the email about this. In the same
14:32
vein as the Charlie kirkwould appreciate it, and I actually
14:35
would love to chat with you about the scientism that
14:39
you purport regarding too many people on the planet, because
14:45
we spend a bit of the earlier part of the
14:46
program on scientism, political scientism, and science scientism and all
14:53
all based on the idea of you come up with
14:56
the answer and then figure out an equation that matches it. Now,
15:02
Doctor Clark was on the phone with us. We went
15:04
to break. We were just getting into the question about
15:07
the HHS report yesterday about the confluence. And you remember
15:14
you're a movie boff ma, aren't you, doctor Clark.
15:17
Speaker 8: I've seen a couple.
15:19
Speaker 3: So in the eighties there was this movie with Jack
15:24
Nicholson and Michael Keaton. Oh what was it called? Oh yeah,
15:29
Batman and Jack Nicholson played the seminole villain in all
15:35
Things Batman the Joker. Do you remember how the Joker
15:39
killed people in that movie? Give him something they laughed
15:43
at death? Well, no, he gave the Well yeah, but
15:48
there's more and it's relevant in this. So SMILEX was
15:52
not one thing. It was a combination of certain things.
15:55
So you could use hairspray and it wouldn't bother you.
15:59
But if you used hair spray with the right lipstick
16:02
the poison, it was like epoxy. You know, you got
16:04
the two tubes and you have to mix them together.
16:07
So so smile X in the Batman movie was this
16:11
combination of things that would work together to kill you,
16:15
but not everybody. And that's that's what I sense in
16:19
this autism announcement, is that it's not thailand all or
16:25
folic acid deficiency or tailan all over indulgence, or eighty
16:31
vaccines all at once for a four year old. It's
16:35
a confluence of all of those things on a weekend
16:39
four year olds or three year old's anatomy. Now you
16:43
have some medical backing. Thus we call you doctor Clark.
16:47
It's not like you have a PhD in meteorological science
16:51
from from the University of Connecticut. No, you're a You're
16:55
an actual veterinarian. So if if you, if if you're
17:00
training in even that part of the medical world, if
17:04
you saw those things happen, wouldn't you start to sense
17:07
a pattern?
17:09
Speaker 8: Yes, And here's the thing we use. You know, what's
17:13
the definition of Look, Joe, when opportunity meets preparation, right, Yeah,
17:20
that's you know, opportunity. You got to have both of them,
17:24
because if opportunity knocks and you're in the backyard bull
17:26
in the grass, you're gonna miss it. You gotta be ready.
17:29
Speaker 3: Happened to me many times.
17:31
Speaker 8: So most of our diseases, there is the infectious agent
17:42
or the inciting toxin, but there have to be other
17:47
factors that line up. If you get enough sleep, if
17:53
you eat the right diet, if you're doing all the
17:56
things you should be doing, you get exposed to routine
18:00
and cole Hey, there's a real good chance your immune
18:03
system says, you know what, I ain't got time for this.
18:06
Speaker 3: Go away.
18:07
Speaker 8: On the other hand, you haven't gotten enough rest, you've
18:11
been outside in the rain, you're stressed. You come into
18:16
contact with the virus, there's a pretty good chance you're
18:19
going to have a runny nose and be coughing pretty soon.
18:22
Speaker 3: What was the phrase? Yeah? What it was the phrase
18:25
they used during the Great Days of Stars cove two
18:29
co morbidities.
18:31
Speaker 8: There you go. Yes, So you got to have the
18:35
stars have to line up there or we'll miss the
18:38
line in a lot of cases. And let's go to
18:41
scientism for just a second now, when you're a little kid, Joe,
18:48
favorite sandwich, peanut butter, panut butter, jelly.
18:54
Speaker 3: Mostly peanut butter. I mean, jelly seemed like a lot
18:57
more work. I was just in it for the peanut butter.
18:59
But okay, I not.
19:00
Speaker 8: What a mom was making it. Some peanut butter and
19:02
grape jelly, or even better yet than strawberry preserves and smuckers,
19:05
Oh my gosh. Yeah, no, m and a big old
19:08
glass of milk, you know. All right, So peanut butter
19:12
and jelly, good combination, peanut butter and chocolate.
19:16
Speaker 3: Hey, that's a Reche's cup, Joe.
19:18
Speaker 8: Everybody likes Aerichi's cup. Peanut butter you can mix with
19:22
a lot of stuff, and it's a good combo. You
19:25
mix science with agenda, that's not a good combination, Joe.
19:31
It's just agenda. The science goes away. It's only agenda.
19:35
Speaker 3: Well, because the agenda people are the ones paying the scientists.
19:39
Speaker 8: There you go. It's kind of like if you mix
19:42
cronyism and capitalism, there is no more capitalism. It's just cronyism.
19:47
Speaker 3: Yep, yep.
19:48
Speaker 8: One lot of combination completely consumed. So yeah, when we
19:54
started getting into scientism and as you said earlier, we've
19:59
predetermed and what we were going to find when our
20:03
conclusion drives our study. There's no science there. Now. When
20:08
you're willing to say, well, okay, what if it's tilinol
20:14
and the blue glue they used to put PVC pipes together,
20:18
you might be going off on the wildest goose chase
20:21
in the world. But then again, you might find out
20:24
what causes something.
20:26
Speaker 3: Right, something into the water, right, I get you your
20:30
PV In general, remember, you know they couldn't figure out
20:34
why for the longest time. Actually, Thomas Jefferson from here
20:37
in Charlottesville famously ate a tomato in front of a
20:41
horrified audience in Lynchburg, Virginia, because the popular science of
20:47
the time was that tomatoes were poisonous. They were a
20:51
night shade.
20:53
Speaker 4: But it was it was a lot to do with
20:55
the lead glass plates that had caused this impression that
21:02
things were poisonous.
21:04
Speaker 3: But the wine. You know, the Romans were suffering great
21:07
grievous health issues for all the lead crystal they were
21:11
making their goblets and everything out of and basically giving
21:14
themselves lead poisoning. So there are always things that we're
21:17
supposed to learn if we're scientifically curious, if somebody from
21:23
the Public Works Department says it can't be the lead,
21:25
so we're going to do a science study that says
21:28
it's not the lead. Go find an answer that says
21:30
it's not the lead in the pipes. You know, That's
21:33
where we are. I think that's the analogy as we
21:36
come up on the news here is if this was
21:39
Rome and we were trying to figure out why everyone
21:42
was getting lead poisoning, and the caesarean section of Public
21:47
Works said we have science here that says it's not
21:49
the lead in the pipes. You know, That's where we
21:53
are today. Clark, good stuff, my friend.
21:56
Speaker 8: The sciences settled is the antithesis of science.
22:01
Speaker 13: Business owners, are you paying high phone bills for old
22:05
school systems and lousy service. Strong Tel cuts your phone
22:09
bills in half and turns every phone you own into
22:12
a feature rich business system. Sean Roddy, CEO of Hennings
22:17
Brothers Drilling, had this to say, We've been a strong
22:20

With record heat, wildfires, and hurricanes forecast this summer, how
23:11
do we keep our pets safe? No matter where we live,
23:14
the potential for natural or man made disasters is a possibility,
23:18
so preparation is key. First, make sure to have an
23:22
evacuation plan mapped out in advance. Know where you're going
23:26
to go and how you're going to get there. Next,
23:29
put together a pet emergency kit with several days food, medicine,
23:34
a first aid kit, and other essential items. Make sure
23:37
your pets are microchipped with updated contact information in case
23:41
you get separated, and be sure to have your pets
23:44
vaccination and medical records, plus contact info for your vet
23:48
and pharmacy. If you need help on how to prepare,
23:51
reach out to your venarian's office, and for more information,

Speaker 7: That was sarcastic.
28:42
Speaker 3: Oh, yes, I think you should. Isn't or isn't them?
28:52
That's the question that consumes us this morning, as we
28:57
discussed the word crimes of America and whether it's the
29:03
political scientism of censorship and the idea that somehow a
29:08
private business telling one of its employees or one of
29:11
its contractors that doesn't want to use its service anymore
29:17
is somehow a governmental violation of their constitutional rights and
29:21
a dangerous, dangerous premise, because if it's determined somewhere in
29:28
some left wing court in San Bernardino or San Diego
29:36
that Jimmy Kimmel has a right to have a timeslot
29:39
given to him by a television network, we're done. We're done.
29:44
Stick a fork in us. We are done. And I
29:47
want to get into isms or isom's wink wink playing
29:53
with your words this morning? Be careful, though somebody else
29:58
may need to use the bathroom while you're playing with
30:00
your words. But James Wluck is on the phone with us,
30:03
thinking what the hell did I just walk into the
30:06
middle of to tell us about what's going on in
30:08
the world of gold and silver. Good morning, James, How
30:11
are you, sir?
30:13
Speaker 6: I'm doing well, Joe, but I'm thinking that same thought
30:17
about gold and silver. Gold and silver are up again today,
30:21
which is just incredible. They've been on a tear the
30:25
past two weeks. Gold is up over one percent to
30:29
three thoy seven hundred and eighty four dollars, up about
30:32
thirty eight dollars so far this morning. Silver of half
30:36
percent forty four dollars and thirty cents. I mean right
30:42
around the corner. Is there high times for silver at
30:45
the moment?
30:46
Speaker 3: Well, And it's something you've been warning about for the
30:48
longest time. And this is one of the reasons I said,
30:50
talk to a family business, because they just want to
30:54
serve you their customer, and I presume you're their customer.
30:58
If not for three nine seven nine coin they opened
31:02
at ten am Eastern. You know, a year ago, James
31:08
was telling us, I don't know gold is underperforming. It's
31:12
way down compared to the price of gold, so silver
31:15
might have a bounce, and here we are a year later.
31:18
I mean, it's it's like you called it. Nostradamis, Yeah,
31:22
that's exactly right, you know.
31:24
Speaker 6: And back then we were saying that that silver has
31:27
industrial uses. It's used in solar panels, it's used in
31:31
in microchips with the AI tech in Navidia. And I
31:36
was talking to a client just the other day and
31:39
they were comparing the how AI companies have gone up
31:43
in value and so has the price of silver, and
31:46
the connection between the two and the just the industrial
31:49
uses of silver, and that is showing true right now.
31:52
And that's why we always tell people, and we told
31:54
them a year ago or two years ago, for however
31:56
long we've been doing this, Joe that you know, always
32:00
just stacked silver. Buy it at whatever price it's at,
32:03
Buy a little amount, costs average in so then you're
32:06
prepared for for rallies like this and you already have
32:10
some and you're not trying to play kid.
32:12
Speaker 3: This is this is the advice that you get from
32:14
a family business been around since nineteen sixty one serving
32:17
the gold and silver investments at jcsgold dot com. Thank you, James,
32:22
you have a great morning, sir, get you Joe. Thanks,
32:26
you know, and the other cool thing about silver. I
32:28
just cleared the line, but to your benefit, you can
32:33
call in at four three four eight A two four
32:36
two one seven or text message. Hamp on the Treasure
32:39
Coast just sent this one to us about the scientism
32:46
of vaccines and childhood health. He writes so open that
32:54
one the baby only gets vitamin D from the mom.
32:57
We know that vitamin D supports the immune system deficient
33:00
as most are. Then babies severely deficient enter vaccines, ad
33:04
nauseum in the baby's body has lost a lot of
33:08
natural defenses. As you know, the sun natural vitamin D
33:12
has been vilified. Oh yeah no without quote, yeah, don't
33:15
go out in the sun, put sunscreen on. We cover
33:18
ourselves in latex house pain to keep the sun's raised
33:22
from getting to us. And then we are like, I
33:24
don't know how I'm vitamin D deficient. I mean there's
33:27
a balancing act. And see, this is the thing about
33:30
a scientism. Scientism doesn't recognize balancing acts all things in proportion.
33:39
And part of it has to do with cronyism, like
33:44
we were talking about with doctor Clark in the last segment.
33:47
You know, if you mix cronyism in capitalism, very quickly
33:51
capitalism vanishes and it's all cronyism scientism, and science can
34:00
assumes all the science that's in there and it just
34:02
becomes scientism. And so when you when you look at
34:10
how we're told, it's this binary choice of one or
34:15
zero and nothing in between. Uh, it is a lot
34:19
of the gas lit place we are. One of my
34:24
favorite lines from President Trump, he was talking about the
34:27
Amish and autism, said this is this is, this is
34:32
one of them keepers there Tony back in the studio,
34:36
we have the yeah. Now Tony's given me the yeah.
34:39
I'm sorry, Tony, all right, so go ahead.
34:41
Speaker 20: This is Bobby wants to be very careful with what
34:44
he says, and he should, But I'm not so careful
34:46
with what I say.
34:48
Speaker 3: That's just that's just a classic trump ism. I mean,
34:52
for everyone who doesn't think he's self aware, he knows,
34:54
he knows he's making these pronouncements. But talking about hell
35:01
and health isn't about all or nothing. I don't even
35:07
want to begin to tell you how I treated my
35:09
two battles with sars Cove two. But the battle began
35:15
with preparation. I've told you I eat a vegetarian diet,
35:21
and my wife is, you know, to my to my peril,
35:25
is a very good cook. So I eat too much
35:27
of a vegetarian diet. So when you see me, it's
35:30
like that, like that Ray Romano line, it's tough to
35:35
get fata. That was actually John Luisiamo and Ice Age.
35:39
It's tough to get fat on a vegan diet. No,
35:42
it's not, no, no, it's not you know what. You
35:45
just eat too much damp protein, regardless of where it
35:49
comes from. I mean, and I have sat down to
35:52
giant prime rib and eaten what you know, I had
35:57
a nutritionist told me that the appropriate portion of protein
36:02
in your diet and any meal should fit within the
36:05
boundaries of your palm of your hand. So you look
36:09
at the palm of your hand, you draw a circle inside,
36:12
so not like overhanging the palm, you had inside the
36:15
palm of your hand. And that's how much protein you
36:17
should have. And I think that's great because Shaquille O'Neal
36:20
has a much bigger hand than I, don't judge, and
36:25
I might have a bigger hand than you, and I'm
36:26
not judging, you know what they say about a guy
36:29
with big hands and big feet clown so so. But
36:34
you're supposed to measure inside there, and that's how much protein,
36:37
whether it be chickpeas or quinoa or prime rib. And
36:43
I would sit down to massive prime rob giant hamburgers,
36:47
and I do the same thing with my protein. Now,
36:50
it's just it's coming from other sources. Because my wife
36:53
is a great cook, and she cooks all this stuff up,
36:57
and you're just like this is great, like chickpeas and
37:01
something or else. I'm sitting here with a homemade jar
37:04
of hummus. It's like better than any of those four
37:09
dollars little things of hummus and twice as much. But
37:12
it's like a jar of chickpeas. I don't think you're
37:15
supposed to eat a jar of chickpeas and the's sitting
37:18
but I could sit here with you know, in sure
37:21
I'm using I'm using carrots and celery and cucumbers and
37:27
the occasional corn chip I'm eating. You know, if I
37:33
ate this thing, and I could easily eat this whole
37:35
thing of hummus, that's a jar of chickpeas. Probably not
37:38
supposed to eat that you, So all things in balance
37:41
my point. So you're saying vegetarian, you must be healthy.
37:43
I'd like to think I'm healthy. I tell you my
37:47
wife's recipe for healing soup and how much iron you
37:51
get from it. But all things in balance, and that's
37:58
where scientism fails us.

Speaker 15: Five considered by most optimized Curcumin is one of the
39:07
few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
39:13
II im doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
39:18
our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
39:22
any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing
39:27
or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
39:32
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:42
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
39:51
healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

Speaker 28: Hi, and it's always a boy. Growing up on a
41:02
farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not
41:05
only in all of their beauty and kindness, but also
41:07
their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds who
41:10
gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who work
41:13
hard to provide for their young, or penguins who travel
41:16
up to five hundred miles to secure food for their families,
41:19
or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them to navigate
41:22
the trees and the wild in search of fruit. This
41:24
remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends, the canines.
41:28
We know dogs are wonderful pets at home, but because
41:31
of their acute senses, they also perform life saving work
41:34
every day.
41:35
Speaker 3: Dogs keep us.
41:35
Speaker 1: Safe at airports.
41:36
Speaker 28: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from pts.
41:39
They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change

41:45
highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those

in need. So please join me an American Humane and

Speaker 3: Eric Hopper. That's Saulolynsky, not Karl Marx, but years ago
44:51
told us that movements, at some point in their life
44:57
cycle become businesses because movements need money to you know,
45:03
go after the things that they're looking for, and that
45:07
those businesses eventually become rackets. And if you look at
45:12
any cycle even go through, go use my industry. Let's

46:06
in the Martians at the end of the War of
46:10
the Worlds, at least in the HG. Wells version. I
46:17
think in the Orson Wells version, i've most incarnation of
46:21
the most recent incarnation of War of the Worlds was
46:24
the Tom Cruise movie adaptation of it. But I read
46:28
the book in high school. I read The Time Machine first,
46:34
and then I read War of the Worlds because I
46:36
was showing off. I liked the books. But let's not
46:40
forget what did in the Martians when they arrived on Earth.
46:46
And if you don't know four three four eight eight
46:49
two four two one seven. But I don't want to
46:51
sit there and discuss something everyone knows already. But broadcast
46:56
radio people sitting in their living rooms almost exactly like
47:03
we see people sitting with their smartphones. Only you couldn't
47:06
couldn't carry your radio around with you until the transistor
47:11
was invented. No, the radio was the scourge of American society.
47:16
All these young people walking around with ear buds in
47:20
their ears listening to it. Oh hold it. You mean
47:23
you thought you invented that here with your iPhones and
47:26
your earbuds and your podcasts. Oh no, this is the
47:31
same thing your great grandparents were doing with Jack Benny
47:37
and the Lone Ranger. They were just listening to broadcasts,
47:42
not podcasts. You think we invented this, we're are. The
47:46
broadcast radio is the cockroach of electronic media. I think
47:52
the cockroach of media in general. I don't think we're
47:55
ever going to die. Every other industry is going to
47:59
go on in a mushroom cloud, and broadcast radio will
48:03
still be out there with or without. By the way,
48:06
legislation and understand the AM radio in all cars legislation
48:12
that's passing through committee. I think it passed out of
48:15
committee fifty to one. You have to understand what's in
48:18
it because there's a reason the electric cars weren't putting
48:23
AM radios in. It was because of the interference of
48:26
the electric motor, and rather than put a simple shield
48:31
around the radio, they just decided to leave the AM
48:34
radio out. But since electric cars are heavily subsidized, the
48:39
government saying, you know what, if we're subsidizing you making
48:42
these damn things, going to leave an AM radio in there.
48:45
So they're really what they're mandating is that they put
48:48
the shield around the AM radio and that they continue
48:52
to be put into vehicles so that you can transport
48:55
your entertainment around. But let's take this this Hoffer paradigm
49:01
of movement becomes a business, becomes a racket, and put
49:06
it on broadcast radio before I go after health insurance,
49:10
before just because I want to show you that I
49:14
understand how it works from the inside. So radio is
49:17
a massive thing. Everybody's tuning in. Everyone wants to listen
49:21
to the Lone Ranger rather than read the Lone Ranger
49:23
comic books. And this is amazing. And we can listen
49:26
to Jack Benny tell jokes, and we can listen to
49:30
the news, and Edward R. Murrow is telling us what's
49:33
going on, and all of a sudden we know so
49:35
much more. And then somebody figures out that all those
49:40
people need to buy stuff at the store. So washing
49:44
Powder starts to sponsor the daytime serials. Thus the expression
49:49
soap opera comes to the four cigarette companies start to
49:55
sponsor Jack Benny because apparently, you know, whether you could
49:58
see him or not, he was. And all these businesses
50:03
started to sponsor these programs because the actors who weren't
50:07
good enough to get onto Broadway were they needed to
50:11
pay their rent too, so there was costs involved, and
50:14
the electricity wasn't free and all of that. So they
50:17
started to sell sponsorships, and then guys like Alan Freed
50:21
started to you know, get approached by record companies because
50:25
somebody said, you know, playing hit records on the radio,
50:29
that could be a cool thing too, And as the
50:31
advent of television started to steal all the programming away
50:35
from radio because apparently it wasn't so cool to listen
50:39
to Jack Benny if you could actually see Jack Benny.
50:43
And that didn't work for everybody because not everyone was
50:46
as good looking as they sounded on the radio. And
50:50
so they started playing music on the radio, and people
50:53
like that too. And then somebody said, huh, I wonder
50:58
if I can make my rec record more popular if
51:01
I slipped the disc jockey some money, And so disc
51:05
jonkeys Alan Freed famously gets in trouble. But disc jockeys
51:08
around the country were taking what was called payola so
51:13
that they would play record company's songs more frequently than others.
51:18
Hey could you play that? And so there were a
51:23
lot of record companies spending a lot of money on
51:26
paying off the disc jonkeys in New York and Detroit
51:29
and Los Angeles to play their records. So this movement
51:35
of broadcast broadcast media had become a business. See, the
51:42
sponsorships had become a racket. So when we take apart
51:46
the health insurance industry and their complacency in the scientism
51:51
that we see with President Trump's announcement yesterday about what
51:56
is causing autism and the reaction that you're already being
52:01
inundated with. You're already being hit with the reactions to
52:06
the reaction.
52:07
Speaker 20: Commish as an example, they have essentially no autism first
52:14
effective immediately. The FDA will be notifying physicians at the
52:18
use of I said.
52:20
Speaker 5: Well, let's see how we say that.
52:25
Speaker 20: Menifin acedin. I said, okay, which is basically commonly known
52:32
as Thailand.
52:33
Speaker 5: All that's a brand name, but during pregnancy can be
52:36
associated with a very increased risk of autism.
52:44
Speaker 3: And and now people are freaking out because we are
52:47
in a world that aren't about treating diseases, We're about preventing.
52:54
