Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Because everywhere else in the world is like, you got
- 0:01Speaker 1: to be perfect.
- 0:02Speaker 2: You got to show up.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Nothing yet, Captain.
- 0:12Speaker 4: Nothing, Captain.
- 0:13Speaker 5: Hailing frequencies are open.
- 0:14Speaker 2: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 0:24Speaker 6: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
- 0:26Speaker 6: this morning.
- 0:27Speaker 7: We'll tell you what went.
- 0:30Speaker 6: On last night.
- 0:30Speaker 8: We'll give you our analysis of it, that much is certain.
- 0:53Speaker 6: But I want to hear how it's impacting you where
- 0:56Speaker 6: you are because as the most unique local part of
- 1:01Speaker 6: the radio station, why wouldn't we? I know there are
- 1:08Speaker 6: places that mess up the program or anything. No, no, no, no, no.
- 1:12Speaker 6: You are the program. We're here to get your day
- 1:16Speaker 6: started or help you wrap it up depending on which coast.
- 1:20Speaker 6: You're on. We had a young lady wrote earlier about
- 1:24Speaker 6: the wealthy, entitled fraternity brothers in this Cornell AIDS story.
- 1:32Speaker 6: And again, indicative. And her email really redoubled my efforts
- 1:36Speaker 6: to try to lay out the realities of this rather
- 1:39Speaker 6: than just the story. Oh, it's another one of these
- 1:43Speaker 6: rich white kids grabastic with it. Charles writes in to
- 1:50Speaker 6: JTInTheMorningRadio at gmail.com. This reflects the envy of those who
- 2:00Speaker 6: are too lazy, too stupid, too uneducated, or too unimaginative
- 2:04Speaker 6: to do well for themselves. I see the same. And
- 2:08Speaker 6: the trouble with that statement, Charles, is it's right and
- 2:11Speaker 6: it can find any one of us at any time.
- 2:15Speaker 6: but people will rail because we have victim shaming now.
- 2:20Speaker 6: If I'm too unimaginative to do well for myself, shame
- 2:24Speaker 6: on me, but the blame game is pervasive. I see
- 2:29Speaker 6: this same attitude in the propaganda of the early Soviet Union,
- 2:33Speaker 6: actually throughout the course of the Soviet Union. Moreover, your
- 2:38Speaker 6: listener is oblivious to the inconvenient truth that the top
- 2:41Speaker 6: 10% of income earners pay more than 60% of all
- 2:45Speaker 6: federal taxes and 72% of income taxes, shares that have
- 2:50Speaker 6: been increasing over time. Perhaps your listener has been unduly
- 2:54Speaker 6: influenced by Barack Hussein Obama, estimated net worth of $ 70 million,
- 3:00Speaker 6: whose tiresome mantra, the rich should pay their fair share,
- 3:04Speaker 6: is likewise based on ignorance and prevarication. And this is
- 3:12Speaker 6: the point I was making about, you know, remember the
- 3:14Speaker 6: boat tax, the luxury yacht tax and that kind of
- 3:17Speaker 6: stuff actually wound up costing more middle class jobs than anything.
- 3:23Speaker 6: Because that's what happens is you tax businesses or you
- 3:28Speaker 6: heavily regulate businesses and they don't do the things you
- 3:31Speaker 6: need them to do in a free society. Thank you
- 3:36Speaker 6: for your email, Charles. JTInTheMorningRadio at gmail.com. Senator John Kennedy
- 3:43Speaker 6: of Louisiana was on NBC News' Meet the Press, and
- 3:47Speaker 6: amongst all the things he said, the thing they felt
- 3:49Speaker 6: most interested in sending out to the other media was
- 3:53Speaker 6: that he was asked if he would consider a presidential run.
- 3:56Speaker 6: His answer was truly John Kennedy-esque. My plans right now
- 4:01Speaker 6: are to run for re-election, but as I've said before,
- 4:04Speaker 6: If I don't think I can be effective in the
- 4:07Speaker 6: Senate anymore, I would consider it. Law enforcement officials are
- 4:12Speaker 6: still trying to put together what happened during a shootout
- 4:16Speaker 6: at a homecoming party spanning a four-block area of southern
- 4:21Speaker 6: Georgia in Dooley County. Sheriff Craig Peavy identified two people
- 4:25Speaker 6: killed as 21-year-old Jacavian Jackson of Cordell and 23-year-old McCaleb
- 4:32Speaker 6: Jackson of Hawkinsville, Georgia. He did not say if they
- 4:35Speaker 6: were related. No arrests have been reported, and authorities gave
- 4:40Speaker 6: no possible motive for the gunfire. I want to go
- 4:49Speaker 6: to the Middle East. The U.S. Air Force, by the way,
- 4:53Speaker 6: has pulled its bombers out of England, their Fairford RAF base.
- 4:58Speaker 6: They've flown home to the United States. But OPEC says
- 5:02Speaker 6: we're going to hold steady. over the next year until
- 5:07Speaker 6: just before the midterm elections end, and we'll meet again
- 5:10Speaker 6: to see if this has put Democrats squarely ahead or not.
- 5:15Speaker 6: Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis mysteriously got themselves some ballistic missiles and
- 5:22Speaker 6: shot them into Riyadh and Qaryas, saying the attacks caused
- 5:28Speaker 6: fires and caused great damage to oil refineries in there.
- 5:33Speaker 6: President Trump has named Jay Clayton as artificial intelligence czar.
- 5:40Speaker 6: The task force he'll head will coordinate the federal effort
- 5:44Speaker 6: to ensure that America continues to lead the world in superintelligence,
- 5:49Speaker 6: according to President Trump's Sunday night text. Presidential election in
- 5:55Speaker 6: Brazil hasn't been decided yet, but the last two standing,
- 6:00Speaker 6: Senator Bolsonaro and President Da Silva face off in a
- 6:05Speaker 6: runoff election October 25th for the top job in Nicaragua.
- 6:14Speaker 6: Pardon me, Brazil. And Krista Pike has remained unconscious and
- 6:21Speaker 6: on a ventilator at hospital four days since her failed
- 6:24Speaker 6: execution as doctors try to get the massive dose of
- 6:29Speaker 6: phenobarbital out of her system. Those are our first things
- 6:33Speaker 6: this morning. Our friends at JCSGold.com said there was a
- 6:40Speaker 6: busy weekend. Gold and silver were on discount for a
- 6:43Speaker 6: good bit of it. But more than that, they want

- 8:04Speaker 10: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin.
- 8:11Speaker 6: Products on the market.
- 8:12Speaker 10: Hi, I'm Dr.
- 8:13Speaker 9: Mitch.
- 8:14Speaker 10: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 10: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 8:24Speaker 10: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:28Speaker 10: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:32Speaker 10: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 8:39Speaker 10: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer. or at
- 8:43Speaker 10: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances,
- 8:47Speaker 10: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 8:52Speaker 10: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,
- 8:57Speaker 10: feel good, and enjoy total wellness.
- 9:02Speaker 11: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 9:05Speaker 11: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 11: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 9:13Speaker 11: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 9:16Speaker 11: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 9:21Speaker 11: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:25Speaker 11: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:29Speaker 11: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your

- 9:37Speaker 11: or send money in any form Hi, everybody. I'm Jack Hanna.
- 9:50Speaker 11: at oig.ssa.gov. Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 4: Hi everybody, I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy
- 10:01Speaker 4: growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 4: with animals. I'm not only in awe of their beauty
- 10:05Speaker 4: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 10:08Speaker 4: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
- 10:11Speaker 4: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 4: or penguins who travel up to 500 miles to secure
- 10:17Speaker 4: food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump
- 10:20Speaker 4: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
- 10:22Speaker 4: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
- 10:25Speaker 4: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
- 10:28Speaker 4: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 4: they also perform life-saving work every day Dogs keep us
- 10:35Speaker 4: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
- 10:38Speaker 4: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 10:41Speaker 4: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 10:44Speaker 4: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
- 10:46Speaker 4: and help those in need. So please join me and
- 10:49Speaker 4: American Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all
- 10:52Speaker 4: the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go
- 10:55Speaker 4: to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.
- 10:59Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 11:01Speaker 13: Oh, yeah?
- 11:01Speaker 14: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:04Speaker 15: And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 9: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 16: Heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 6: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 12: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 11:15Speaker 16: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 11:18Speaker 16: somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 17: Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 15: Me too.

- 11:23Speaker 5: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:29Speaker 18: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:31Speaker 18: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 18: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 18: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:42Speaker 18: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 11:46Speaker 18: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 11:51Speaker 18: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 11:54Speaker 18: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 11:58Speaker 18: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 12:00Speaker 18: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 12:04Speaker 18: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 12:08Speaker 18: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 12:11Speaker 18: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.

- 12:32Speaker 7: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 7: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:40Speaker 7: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.

- 13:14Speaker 2: didn't cost anything in the first place, so let's say
- 13:17Speaker 2: one million dollars and call it even. First Thing Today
- 13:23Speaker 2: by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:26Speaker 7: So the character assassination and.
- 13:29Speaker 6: The media malpractice that is going on over the lawsuit
- 13:44Speaker 6: embroiling the seven members of a fraternity at Cornell University.
- 13:49Speaker 6: And again, right now the narrative has gone to a
- 14:00Speaker 6: particular degree. Is suing Cornell, the Chi Phi fraternity, Delta
- 14:16Speaker 6: Delta Delta sorority, and others who failed to protect her
- 14:21Speaker 6: from being sexually assaulted. The complaint, and I'm rewinding this
- 14:33Speaker 6: back to the actual thing, the complaint, Plaintiff Doe was
- 14:39Speaker 6: in a very vulnerable situation when she was sexually assaulted,
- 14:42Speaker 6: the complaint says. Plaintiff Doe sustained injuries, including but not
- 14:47Speaker 6: limited to severe emotional and psychological distress, humiliation, fright, disassociation, anger, depression, anxiety,
- 14:57Speaker 6: a severe shock to her nervous system, physical pain and
- 15:00Speaker 6: mental anguish, and emotional and psychological damage. Some of those
- 15:05Speaker 6: things start to sound redundant. And they name all the.
- 15:14Speaker 6: It's interesting that there's a faculty member, an alumni association member,
- 15:20Speaker 6: and a member of the executive board that are not
- 15:22Speaker 6: named in this, but the frat members are all named
- 15:27Speaker 6: in this.
- 15:29Speaker 16: Case.
- 15:36Speaker 6: And I brought this up because... It is still what
- 15:43Speaker 6: you're getting hit with, but it's more than the hit
- 15:47Speaker 6: on Cornell University. It is a hit on the idea
- 15:53Speaker 6: of being successful enough to afford Cornell University. But Cornell,
- 16:06Speaker 6: like most major universities, has a large portion of their
- 16:09Speaker 6: population there on scholarship coming from pieces of the world
- 16:14Speaker 6: that do not have large sums of money. A factor
- 16:18Speaker 6: left out of most of these, this is part and
- 16:22Speaker 6: parcel of the left's insistence that we start a class war.
- 16:36Speaker 6: And understand that if you go back and read Marx,
- 16:40Speaker 6: not Groucho, not Harpo, Karl, the forgotten Marx brother, he
- 16:47Speaker 6: says that in order to bring on the revolution, you
- 16:52Speaker 6: need to base it on class warfare. Everyone says, well,
- 16:59Speaker 6: how do you know this is Marxism, Joe? Because this
- 17:01Speaker 6: is what Karl Marx said you had to do. And
- 17:04Speaker 6: one of the problems with Marxism in the United States
- 17:07Speaker 6: is that class has never really been and has always
- 17:12Speaker 6: sort of been a fungible thing. When we still had
- 17:17Speaker 6: free markets, rich people could become poor people just as
- 17:24Speaker 6: much as poor people could become rich people. And this
- 17:27Speaker 6: is the important part of the story because this story
- 17:30Speaker 6: in and of itself, sadly, is being used as, again,
- 17:35Speaker 6: a plank in this silly idea that there are the
- 17:41Speaker 6: haves and have-nots, which is an opiate of the masses.
- 17:51Speaker 6: And that if you're somehow lacking in things that you desire,
- 17:56Speaker 6: it's because somebody else has kept you from them. And
- 18:03Speaker 6: that if you vote for the right politician, of course,
- 18:06Speaker 6: they will go and right that injustice. And one of
- 18:11Speaker 6: the problems with Marxism is it doesn't work like that.
- 18:14Speaker 6: The world doesn't work like that. And guess what? You
- 18:17Speaker 6: vote for Marxists and then they haul your grandma off
- 18:21Speaker 6: to a gulag somewhere because you didn't come along. You
- 18:25Speaker 6: weren't part of it. Or maybe you thought you were
- 18:28Speaker 6: going to be part of it. Maybe you're one of
- 18:34Speaker 6: those folks who are out there banging the drum and
- 18:39Speaker 6: marching in the streets for social justice. One of the
- 18:47Speaker 6: living wage protesters who've never hired or paid anyone's wages
- 18:51Speaker 6: in their lives. And I don't mean to say you
- 18:57Speaker 6: can't have an opinion. Are there people who go to
- 19:05Speaker 6: universities in the United States who think they are and
- 19:08Speaker 6: that their bowel movements don't smell? Absolutely. Are they a
- 19:20Speaker 6: small percentage of population? Yes. Yes, they are. And therefore,
- 19:27Speaker 6: we shouldn't be out there throwing out The process of achievement,
- 19:40Speaker 6: learning things that you couldn't learn anywhere else before. These universities,
- 19:45Speaker 6: these Ivy League colleges are supposed to be hard to
- 19:47Speaker 6: get into and hard to stay into. And anyone who
- 19:54Speaker 6: doesn't think that they party at Ivy League schools should
- 19:57Speaker 6: go rent Animal House from Netflix. This was written by
- 20:03Speaker 6: the editors of a magazine called the Harvard Lampoon. This
- 20:10Speaker 6: was to make fun of life at Harvard. This is
- 20:14Speaker 6: why when John Belushi's character drives away at the end
- 20:17Speaker 6: of the movie, the caption is, Senator and Mrs. Blutarski
- 20:24Speaker 6: live in Washington, D.C. And everyone said at the end, oh,
- 20:28Speaker 6: they mean Ted Kennedy. People do bad things because we
- 20:35Speaker 6: don't tell them doing bad things have immortal effects. consequences
- 20:40Speaker 6: this is the world we live in I will guarantee
- 20:43Speaker 6: you most of these frat boys never saw a copy
- 20:47Speaker 6: of the Ten Commandments the sorority sister in question probably
- 20:53Speaker 6: Jane Doe or whatever probably never saw it either and
- 21:02Speaker 6: so they wind up getting themselves in these compromised positions
- 21:05Speaker 6: because it's about having some fun And as this email
- 21:15Speaker 6: comes in, Joe, thank you for pointing out that Kathy
- 21:17Speaker 6: Hochul is among the most vocal supporters for women's sexual
- 21:22Speaker 6: rights in terms of access to Mifepristone. I love it
- 21:28Speaker 6: when you call it Mifepristone. And I think because there's
- 21:36Speaker 6: Kathy Hochul feigning this outrage.
- 21:40Speaker 19: You're leftists.
- 21:42Speaker 13: In the United States, all these professors and all these
- 21:45Speaker 13: beautiful civil rights defenders, they are instrumental in the process
- 21:49Speaker 13: of the subversion only to destabilize the nation. When their
- 21:55Speaker 13: job is completed, they are not needed anymore.
- 21:59Speaker 6: No, they're not. And there's a punchline. Hey, I'm Brant,
- 22:02Speaker 6: and her name is Sherry.
- 22:03Speaker 14: Hello.
- 22:04Speaker 20: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
- 22:06Speaker 20: for because of a surgery she just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 21: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11Speaker 21: talk about all the time, which is?
- 22:13Speaker 6: MediShare.
- 22:13Speaker 21: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:15Speaker 20: So what was your experience like with MediShare and the
- 22:17Speaker 20: health care bills?
- 22:18Speaker 21: Honestly, Brant, seamless. And what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21Speaker 21: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was,
- 22:24Speaker 21: members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27Speaker 21: me tell you, Having people pray with you when you
- 22:30Speaker 21: call in with your need, that is just... It is refreshing. Yes,
- 22:34Speaker 21: that's what it is.
- 22:34Speaker 20: What I keep telling people, people love MediShare and they
- 22:38Speaker 20: love saving money. Typical family can save $ 500 a month.
- 22:42Speaker 21: I am very thankful for MediShare. It is so different.
- 22:46Speaker 21: And I mean different in a very, very good way.
- 22:48Speaker 6: It is good, different. Call now.
- 22:50Speaker 20: They're easy to talk to and you can get a
- 22:51Speaker 20: price within two minutes.

- 23:01Speaker 2: Hi, I'm Dr.
- 23:02Speaker 8: Michael Bailey, president of the American Veterinary Medical Association. Artificial
- 23:07Speaker 8: intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver better
- 23:11Speaker 8: care for pets. From AI-assisted radiographs that speed up diagnoses
- 23:16Speaker 8: to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports veterinary teams
- 23:21Speaker 8: in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop personalized cancer treatments,
- 23:27Speaker 8: predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease, and even streamline
- 23:32Speaker 8: record keeping so veterinarians can focus more on patients. But
- 23:37Speaker 8: as with any new technology, always keep a human in
- 23:40Speaker 8: the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 6: AI is a powerful tool.
- 23:46Speaker 8: But not a replacement for your veterinarian's expertise, compassion, and judgment,
- 23:52Speaker 8: which remains at the center of our profession. For more

- 24:32Speaker 10: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 24:39Speaker 10: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 24:43Speaker 10: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances,
- 24:46Speaker 10: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells, even
- 24:52Speaker 10: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 25:02Speaker 11: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 25:05Speaker 11: warn you about telephone scammers, pretending to be government employees.
- 25:10Speaker 11: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 25:13Speaker 11: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 25:17Speaker 11: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls

- 25:33Speaker 11: personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 25:38Speaker 11: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,

- 25:55Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 25:56Speaker 13: Oh, yeah?
- 25:57Speaker 14: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 25:59Speaker 22: And now a speech.
- 26:02Speaker 16: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 26:06Speaker 10: Heart and brain.
- 26:07Speaker 6: Who's with me?
- 26:08Speaker 12: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 26:10Speaker 16: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 26:13Speaker 16: somebody call me a ride.
- 26:15Speaker 17: Love that guy.
- 26:16Speaker 9: Me too.
- 26:17Speaker 5: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 26:19Speaker 5: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 26:23Speaker 18: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 26:26Speaker 18: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 26:30Speaker 18: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 26:34Speaker 18: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 26:36Speaker 18: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 26:40Speaker 18: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 26:46Speaker 18: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 26:49Speaker 18: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 18: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 18: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 26:58Speaker 18: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 27:02Speaker 18: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 27:05Speaker 18: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 27:09Speaker 18: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

- 28:16Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 28:22Speaker 13: Your leftists in the United States, all these professors and
- 28:25Speaker 13: all these civil rights defenders, they are instrumental in the
- 28:30Speaker 13: process of the subversion only to destabilize the nation. When
- 28:37Speaker 13: their job is completed, they are not needed anymore. They
- 28:41Speaker 13: know too much. Some of them When they get disillusioned,
- 28:45Speaker 13: when they see that Marxist-Leninists come to power, obviously they
- 28:48Speaker 13: get offended. They think that they will come to power.
- 28:51Speaker 13: That will never happen, of course. They will be lined
- 28:53Speaker 13: up against the wall and shot. But they may turn
- 28:57Speaker 13: into the most bigger enemies of Marxist-Leninists when they come
- 29:00Speaker 13: to power.
- 29:01Speaker 6: That's right. But that's the punchline at the end of
- 29:04Speaker 6: the joke. It's like Deadpool's Desert Eagle pistol arrows say,
- 29:10Speaker 6: smile and wait for the flash. So you all are
- 29:15Speaker 6: out there rushing around to make out this class warfare
- 29:19Speaker 6: epic about the Cornell 7, or as Dr. Clark called them,
- 29:22Speaker 6: the Cornell 8, because it helps sell your narrative into
- 29:28Speaker 6: the midterms that there's rich, entitled people and the poor,
- 29:35Speaker 6: and you need to vote for the poor when the
- 29:38Speaker 6: poor are the very ones who have been pushing this
- 29:40Speaker 6: kind of sexual revolution ever since. This email from Mary,
- 29:49Speaker 6: what was she doing there? What was she thinking? Well,
- 29:52Speaker 6: she was thinking this is a great place to get involved,
- 29:55Speaker 6: to be part of the cool kids. I don't know
- 29:57Speaker 6: how many of her sorority sisters went. I was pleased
- 30:00Speaker 6: in the suit to see that the sorority is also
- 30:04Speaker 6: being sued by her. And she obviously feels that the
- 30:09Speaker 6: resolution of the case was not sufficient. Is there a
- 30:14Speaker 6: reason to look into it? I mentioned the one that
- 30:17Speaker 6: jumps off the page, that Title IX insists that Cornell University,
- 30:22Speaker 6: not the district attorney in Ithaca, New York, Not Letitia James,
- 30:29Speaker 6: the special prosecutor. Title IX insists that the universities are
- 30:35Speaker 6: in charge with doing this, and many of them are
- 30:38Speaker 6: not good at it. Some of them get lucky. University
- 30:43Speaker 6: of Virginia hired perhaps one of the best police chiefs
- 30:46Speaker 6: ever to run their police department. Now all the leftists
- 30:50Speaker 6: on grounds are like, he's not being transparent about stop
- 30:54Speaker 6: and frisk or whatever it is. the silliness of I
- 30:58Speaker 6: just want my way, but understand that Marx insists on class.
- 31:04Speaker 6: This is why the Great Society was built on race inequities,
- 31:10Speaker 6: because that was the best way for them to make
- 31:13Speaker 6: the case on class warfare was between black and white.
- 31:19Speaker 6: So they made it a racial war. Joel's on the
- 31:23Speaker 6: phone with us at 434-882-4217. Good morning, Joel. What's going on?
- 31:28Speaker 24: Hey, good morning, Joe. Isn't it all about control? I mean,
- 31:32Speaker 24: right now people are talking about Yersinia pestis, which is
- 31:38Speaker 24: the pneumonic plague, and it was accidentally dropped. And yet
- 31:45Speaker 24: we know that there's, we have biological research centers and
- 31:49Speaker 24: they've been banned by the, uh, Geneva Convention, but we
- 31:54Speaker 24: still produce biological weapons.
- 31:59Speaker 6: They allow you to make certain, you know, as long
- 32:01Speaker 6: as it doesn't kill a soldier or designed to kill
- 32:03Speaker 6: a soldier, it's apparently a blind spot or intentional gap
- 32:09Speaker 6: in the Geneva Convention. You're allowed to make your opponent's
- 32:13Speaker 6: soldiers grievously ill. That seems to be okay.
- 32:19Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean, and then I heard some lawmakers, supposed
- 32:24Speaker 24: lawmakers in America saying, well, and then who was the
- 32:28Speaker 24: lady that ran with Fauci? She was one of the assistants.
- 32:33Speaker 6: Oh, yeah. She was his sidekick. I can't remember her name, but,
- 32:41Speaker 6: you know, it's a relegated because it was all about Tony.
- 32:44Speaker 6: This was about, you know, the cult of Tony, take
- 32:47Speaker 6: the fifth, leave the cannolis, Fauci becoming this celebrity, celebrity doctor.
- 32:55Speaker 24: And she goes, well, I hope it's not biologically engineered,
- 33:00Speaker 24: but how many things in our world, I don't mean
- 33:03Speaker 24: just our world of America, but just things in the
- 33:06Speaker 24: world are biologically engineered.
- 33:08Speaker 6: And yet we have a.
- 33:10Speaker 24: Media, a press that, likes to edit, soundbite, drop things in.
- 33:18Speaker 24: And they're engineering things too, aren't they? So along with
- 33:21Speaker 24: the biological engineering, we have engineering by how things are
- 33:26Speaker 24: controlled by the media.
- 33:28Speaker 6: So here's a way, present company included on this. Is
- 33:36Speaker 6: somebody telling you facts or fiction? Are they telling you
- 33:41Speaker 6: a story See, I will tell you, I am telling
- 33:45Speaker 6: you a story. I am using facts to highlight my story.
- 33:50Speaker 6: And I believe that if you have all the facts,
- 33:53Speaker 6: I can even tell my story better. But that's not
- 33:56Speaker 6: the case with everybody. A lot of people aren't that
- 33:59Speaker 6: confident in themselves or feel too urgent that they must
- 34:03Speaker 6: get you to comply with their thoughts or whatever it
- 34:06Speaker 6: may be. So they don't tell you everything. They intentionally obfuscate.
- 34:13Speaker 6: So that you believe them and you go on about
- 34:16Speaker 6: your day because you're busy. You're busy. You've got other
- 34:19Speaker 6: stuff to do. So if we get half the population
- 34:24Speaker 6: to stay home, then we only have to convince a
- 34:27Speaker 6: quarter of the population to do what we want. And
- 34:31Speaker 6: they do. And then we win. And now we have
- 34:33Speaker 6: a bag of other people's, pardon me, other people's money
- 34:36Speaker 6: that we can give out to our friends.
- 34:40Speaker 24: You know, it kills me too, Joe, is people go, Well,
- 34:44Speaker 24: President Trump, he took the bullet in his ear, but
- 34:47Speaker 24: it was all planned.
- 34:50Speaker 6: Yeah, because that's... People who've never even held a rifle
- 34:55Speaker 6: are claiming, oh, that was a trick shot or whatever.
- 35:00Speaker 6: People are funny, especially, you know, with the dead people
- 35:04Speaker 6: behind President Trump that were hit by that bullet. It's...
- 35:10Speaker 6: Because this is what you've dealt in emergency rooms you
- 35:14Speaker 6: know what addicts look like when they come in when
- 35:17Speaker 6: somebody's having a bad trip man you know um and
- 35:21Speaker 6: they're they've overdosed on something and i'm not talking about
- 35:24Speaker 6: fentanyl poisoning i'm talking about taking some drug too much
- 35:28Speaker 6: and now they're overdosing on it that's where we are
- 35:32Speaker 6: right now we are overdosing on our particular societal opiate
- 35:36Speaker 6: called democracy we want to vote in everything and if
- 35:39Speaker 6: we don't get it is a great example um A
- 35:42Speaker 6: flagship area here, Waynesboro, Virginia. Beautiful city right on the river.
- 35:48Speaker 6: It's also right on railway tracks. You can go right
- 35:51Speaker 6: down to the Joint Forces Base in Norfolk from there.
- 35:56Speaker 6: So years after the flooring industry and the carpet industry
- 36:01Speaker 6: abandoned Waynesboro, leaving it destitute with huge unemployment, huge economic problems,
- 36:08Speaker 6: Northrop Grumman says, you know what, we're going to take
- 36:11Speaker 6: one of those carpet factories and we're going to turn
- 36:13Speaker 6: it into a high-tech manufacturing facility to make parts for
- 36:17Speaker 6: our fighter jets. And we're going to put them right
- 36:20Speaker 6: on trains and take them. It's a great idea. 330
- 36:22Speaker 6: people are going to get jobs. And the leftists have
- 36:25Speaker 6: had three months of public comment online, two town hall meetings.
- 36:31Speaker 6: And then when that ended, they said, that wasn't enough.
- 36:34Speaker 6: We haven't had enough time. because they want to run
- 36:38Speaker 6: out the clock on it. They want to run it
- 36:39Speaker 6: out until a new president's in there, and then maybe
- 36:42Speaker 6: Northrop Grumman will give up on it, because they want
- 36:45Speaker 6: people poor. They want people needy. They don't want people
- 36:49Speaker 6: going to Northrop Grumman and earning a living wage and saying,
- 36:52Speaker 6: you know what's the heck with you and your Marxist agenda?
- 36:56Speaker 6: I've got work to do. And so that's exactly what
- 36:59Speaker 6: the Marxists do, is they want to drive away anything
- 37:03Speaker 6: that could help you achieve your dreams without them.
- 37:08Speaker 24: And, Joe, there's other people that don't necessarily have to
- 37:12Speaker 24: be Marxists. They could have their own business interests that
- 37:16Speaker 24: just want to put something else there or even maybe
- 37:19Speaker 24: even build a solar farm or something. You know what
- 37:22Speaker 24: I mean?
- 37:22Speaker 6: Well, but, I mean, then you're looking to become a cronyist.
- 37:26Speaker 6: You're looking for the government to make your business for you,
- 37:28Speaker 6: which is how the wealthy get co-opted into Marxism because Marx,
- 37:33Speaker 6: the Marxist, will tell the wealthy people of America, Yeah,
- 37:38Speaker 6: go with us. We'll protect your family wealth. You will
- 37:42Speaker 6: be considered party leaders in our Marxist world. And we'll
- 37:47Speaker 6: use the middle class guy as the rich guy. We'll
- 37:52Speaker 6: call the middle class guy the rich guy and send
- 37:55Speaker 6: the pitchforks and torches crowd after him. And that's how
- 37:59Speaker 6: we're going to win this thing. And that's what happened.
- 38:01Speaker 20: Life can change so fast.
- 38:03Speaker 1: Abruptly, just ask Paul.
- 38:05Speaker 20: He's a hardworking entrepreneur.
- 38:07Speaker 6: He's young.
- 38:07Speaker 20: He's got a young family. Suddenly, though, he develops a
- 38:10Speaker 20: rare medical condition where he lost the use of both.
- 38:13Speaker 21: Of his arms.
- 38:14Speaker 16: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer,
- 38:16Speaker 16: couldn't type, couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold
- 38:18Speaker 16: my son, who was about a month old.
- 38:20Speaker 20: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
- 38:23Speaker 20: but they're so thankful that they're members of MediShare.
- 38:27Speaker 16: I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does MediShare
- 38:29Speaker 16: really work? I'm living proof that it works. My four

- 38:42Speaker 16: are going to be taken care of when we have
- 38:44Speaker 16: some type of medical problem, that is such a huge
- 38:46Speaker 16: blessing to us.

- 41:03Speaker 22: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 22: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 22: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 22: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 22: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 22: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 22: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 22: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,

- 44:26Speaker 16: Oh, and while the king was looking down, the jester
- 44:31Speaker 16: stole his thorny crown.
- 44:33Speaker 15: The courtroom was adjourned.
- 44:44Speaker 7: A quartet practiced.
- 44:46Speaker 25: In the park And we sang dirges in the dark
- 44:50Speaker 25: The day the music.
- 44:55Speaker 24: Died Wasn't he a journalist?
- 44:56Speaker 2: We were singing bye-bye Miss American Pie.
- 45:01Speaker 6: Yes, he was. You remember the famous story about Karl Marx,
- 45:06Speaker 6: the journalist.
- 45:06Speaker 25: You may remember that in 1851, the New York Herald
- 45:11Speaker 25: Tribune Under the sponsorship and publishing of Horace Greeley, employed
- 45:18Speaker 25: as its London correspondent, an obscure journalist by the name
- 45:22Speaker 25: of Karl Marx, we are told that foreign correspondent Marx,
- 45:26Speaker 25: stone broke, and with a family ill and undernourished, constantly
- 45:32Speaker 25: appealed to Greeley and managing editor Charles Dana for an
- 45:37Speaker 25: increase in his munificent salary of $ 5 per installment. a
- 45:41Speaker 25: salary which he and Engels ungratefully label as the lousiest
- 45:45Speaker 25: petty bourgeois cheating. But when all his financial appeals were refused,
- 45:52Speaker 25: Marx looked around for other means of livelihood and fame,
- 45:56Speaker 25: eventually terminating his relationship with the Tribune and devoting his
- 46:00Speaker 25: talents full-time to the cause that would bequeath to the
- 46:03Speaker 25: world the seeds of Leninism, Stalinism, revolution, and the Cold War.
- 46:10Speaker 24: I guess he knew how to play the society, per se.
- 46:15Speaker 6: With influence of words. Oh, yeah. And the famous story
- 46:20Speaker 6: is he would sit there without work and watch all
- 46:23Speaker 6: the farm kids walk into the factories of London and
- 46:27Speaker 6: get mad because these rubes from the hills were making
- 46:31Speaker 6: more money than he was. And he was this intellect,
- 46:34Speaker 6: this great intellect, and he could see the world. So
- 46:38Speaker 6: he started writing. manifestos to take away the power of
- 46:42Speaker 6: those poor people to make their own living in their
- 46:45Speaker 6: own way and insist that the state needs to regulate
- 46:49Speaker 6: this under a banner of caution that we're going to
- 46:53Speaker 6: look out for you.
- 46:56Speaker 24: Kind of like Kamala and AOC, they're great intellects too.
- 46:59Speaker 6: Wait, what did I just say?
- 47:01Speaker 24: I'm sorry.
- 47:02Speaker 6: All right. You burst into flames there a little bit,
- 47:05Speaker 6: but I appreciate it. Joel, you have a good morning, sir.
- 47:11Speaker 13: To destabilize the nation. When their job is completed, they
- 47:16Speaker 13: are not needed anymore. They know too much. Some of them,
- 47:20Speaker 13: when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist-Leninists come
- 47:23Speaker 13: to power, obviously they get offended. They think that they
- 47:27Speaker 13: will come to power. That will never happen, of course.
- 47:29Speaker 13: They will be lined up against the wall and shot.
- 47:32Speaker 13: But they may turn into the most bitter enemies of
- 47:36Speaker 13: Marxist-Leninists when they come to power.
- 47:38Speaker 6: Because they're bitter. But those are the ones who don't get,
- 47:42Speaker 6: you know, a love tap in the back of the
- 47:44Speaker 6: head from guys like Jay Jones. Because, you know, and Joe,
- 47:50Speaker 6: why do you have a problem with Marxism? Isn't it about,
- 47:53Speaker 6: Charles nails it here. He says the unequal distribution of Raymond, Ray,
- 47:59Speaker 6: one of my favorite contributors. I love you all the same,
- 48:04Speaker 6: just like I tell my kids. Ray writes in, a
- 48:09Speaker 6: big reason for our inequalities of wealth is our inequalities
- 48:12Speaker 6: of talent and motivation. Too many people start off at
- 48:15Speaker 6: the bottom and are willing to remain there. Many times
- 48:19Speaker 6: success is determined not only by how you spend your
- 48:22Speaker 6: working days, but how you spend your evenings, perhaps learning
- 48:27Speaker 6: a new skill. Well, you remember, Ray, the almost allergic
- 48:31Speaker 6: reaction to, of all things, great social zeitgeist creators, Super
- 48:39Speaker 6: Bowl commercial for United Parcel Service. United Parcel Service went
- 48:44Speaker 6: around and they wanted to, you know, highlight how they,
- 48:49Speaker 6: as a package delivery service, were helping people with what
- 48:55Speaker 6: was now commonly referred to as a side hustle and.
- 49:06Speaker 6: Hired Dolly Parton to rejigger the lyrics of her famous
- 49:09Speaker 6: movie soundtrack.
- 49:10Speaker 12: Go back to this Super Bowl.
- 49:20Speaker 6: And you will find the next day the reaction was
- 49:24Speaker 6: almost as if somebody had swallowed the syrup of Ipecac
- 49:29Speaker 6: and they were vomiting up every Marxist idea they had
- 49:33Speaker 6: because this was racism, this was sexism, this was misogyny,
- 49:38Speaker 6: this was white privilege run amok. This is the sanctified.
- 49:43Speaker 6: Didn't we just spend a month sanctifying Dolly Parton? I
- 49:48Speaker 6: think the Pope has been asked right after he finishes
- 49:51Speaker 6: getting the Chicago White Sox their World Series trophy to
- 49:55Speaker 6: canonize Dolly Parton for her work. But at that frozen
- 50:00Speaker 6: moment in time, because she was participating in an ad
- 50:04Speaker 6: campaign that said, hey, When you get home from your
- 50:07Speaker 6: nine to five job, work five to nine on your side.
- 50:11Speaker 6: How horrible is that? How racist is that? And that's
- 50:16Speaker 6: all part of this Cornell seven narrative. That the that
- 50:23Speaker 6: there's this rich class in America that's smart enough not
- 50:29Speaker 6: to do something dumb like Marie Antoinette and say, let
- 50:32Speaker 6: them eat cake. And they're out there and they're trying
- 50:43Speaker 6: to rule over people. And some of them, to be
- 50:47Speaker 6: fair to some folks, they're doing it because they don't
- 50:50Speaker 6: think people have the intellectual heft to actually do anything
- 50:55Speaker 6: for themselves. And that's the sad part is that These
- 51:09Speaker 6: are folks who truly, truly don't believe you have any
- 51:16Speaker 6: ability to make it on your own. You don't. And
- 51:22Speaker 6: that you're going to need to be the permanent ward
- 51:26Speaker 6: of the state. And that's just how they roll. And
- 51:36Speaker 6: it's sad, and I feel bad for folks when I
- 51:40Speaker 6: find them in that, because this is the whole point
- 51:43Speaker 6: of our Ted's Day, is that you have gifts and talents.
- 51:51Speaker 6: God has given them to you so that you can
- 51:53Speaker 6: be this incredible benefit to your society.
- 51:57Speaker 10: Oh, really? Really?
- 52:01Speaker 6: This is how we're going to finish this serious broadcast. Well,
- 52:08Speaker 6: you know, that's a good idea anyway. Marxism, Leninism. They
- 52:16Speaker 6: are reality. But her name is Wei Ying Zhang. Her
- 52:20Speaker 6: name is not Wang Chung. Besides, she's known as Heather here.
- 52:30Speaker 6: You know, the things that make you giggle, I don't know.
- 52:35Speaker 6: It's Wei Ning Zhang, not Wang Chung. Anyway, till tomorrow.
- 52:43Speaker 6: So long and thanks for all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 9: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:54Speaker 9: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 19: It was MediShare that came through for us, and there
- 52:59Speaker 19: was no hassles.
- 53:00Speaker 21: There was no problem.
- 53:01Speaker 9: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 53:05Speaker 9: of such an incredible ministry.
- 53:07Speaker 12: MediShare is a biblical approach to health care where Christians
- 53:11Speaker 12: share each other's medical expenses.
- 53:13Speaker 5: MediShare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 53:17Speaker 5: with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 53:20Speaker 12: MediShare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over 30 years old.
