- 0:38Speaker 8: Let me be Joe, thank you for letting me be
- 0:41of service to you this morning. Four three four eight
- 0:47eight two four two one seven. That's the multitasking phone line.
- 0:52You can text message because I know what morning is
- 0:54a like, and you're sitting there and having a chat
- 0:56with somebody is a little bit more of a time
- 0:59commitment than you know, yelling at the phone because you're
- 1:02mad because of something I said. This text message comes
- 1:07in from Terry, says Joe. The country is too damn big.
- 1:13The world is too damn big. We need centralized government.
- 1:18If we had it constitutionally driven in the size and
- 1:22scope that the founders had it in seventeen eighty nine,
- 1:26we would be a third world country. That is a
- 1:29lot of folks believe Terry, and I understand that. Larry
- 1:33Sabado agrees with you. We're too big of a country
- 1:36to have this cutesy, free country stuff going on where
- 1:42there's too much at stake for that. Lots of folks
- 1:46wanting to ring in or ring out on my neck.
- 1:49So let's let them get to it. But first, let
- 1:51me do the first things this morning, because you really
- 1:55can't discuss the news until I tell you the news.
- 1:58And once I've told you the news, we'll break it
- 1:59up up into easily digestible gummies. US and EU officials
- 2:05were at the US Treasury Department on Monday not to
- 2:08pay their taxes, but to discuss various forms of economic
- 2:12pressure that have not yet been exerted on Russia, including
- 2:15new sanctions and tariffs on Russian oil purchases on countries
- 2:21that buy from Russia. Meanwhile, Russia struck an energy generation
- 2:27station near Kiev, knocking out power and gas service to
- 2:31parts of the capital city. Federal Appeals Court ruled on
- 2:35Monday that nineteen States lacks standing to challenge President Trump's
- 2:40decision to fire twenty five thousand probationary government workers. In
- 2:47the same poll that said fifty seven percent of Americans
- 2:50disapprove of the use of the National Guard in Washington, DC. Oddly,
- 2:55the President's approval rating went up two percentage points the
- 2:59same US CBS News you Gov polls is now forty
- 3:04four percent of Americans approve of President Trump's job participation,
- 3:09and up from forty two percent last month. A speech yesterday,
- 3:14President Trump promised the Department of Education, quoting will soon
- 3:19issue news guidance protecting prayer in our public schools and
- 3:24its total protection. US Supreme Court backed President Trump's approach
- 3:30towards immigration reform, letting federal agents proceed with raids in
- 3:34southern California. The Court granted a Justice Department request to
- 3:40put on hold a federal judges order barring agents from
- 3:43stopping or detaining people without reasonable suspicion that they are
- 3:48in the country illegally. In a related story, the federal
- 3:55crackdown on illegals in Chicago began yesterday. It's called Operation
- 4:00Midway Blitz. No word on if that's what happened to
- 4:05the Chicago Bears defense as they gave up twenty one
- 4:08fourth quarter points in a Monday night football loss to Minnesota.
- 4:15A nationwide crackdown by DEA agents and other federal agents
- 4:19have brought down six hundred arrests from the Sineloa cartel,
- 4:24including one batman esque one hundred and seventy one arrests
- 4:28at one time. A lawyer for several workers detained that
- 4:33the Hyundai factory in Georgia says that his employees his clients,
- 4:38are highly skilled technicians who were there specifically to help
- 4:44train facility workers in Label, Georgia. President Trump said, I'm
- 4:53hereby calling on all foreign companies investing in the United
- 4:57States to please respect our nation's immigrant laws. However, and
- 5:02those are our first things on this beautiful Tuesday morning.
- 5:08So let me get to four three four eight eight
- 5:11two four to two one seven plenty to talk about
- 5:15this morning. We haven't even spend a lot of time
- 5:17on good old the round mound of inbound Reverend al
- 5:23and his statement. It was actually interviewing Zohan mad Money
- 5:27Uh there in the and the birthday card was released.
- 5:30It's even weirder and creepier than I would have expected,
- 5:35and it really doesn't look like something other than what
- 5:38you might expect the Onion to publish. But well, we'll
- 5:42see where it goes. From there. Of course, they ignore
- 5:44Bill Clinton's entry in the birthday book for his fiftieth
- 5:47as well doctor Clark's unline. Good morning, Clark. How are
- 5:50you doing, sir?
- 5:52Speaker 9: I'm great, Joe and yourself, well.
- 5:54Speaker 8: You know what, just having a great day as well,
- 5:57you know, trying to win back the concert institutional authority
- 6:01of the government. What do you say about that? Before?
- 6:03I know, you probably called for your own agenda and
- 6:06you had a thought of something I tweaked you, and
- 6:08I appreciate that. But what do you think about Terry's
- 6:11texts that the country's too damn big in the world,
- 6:14is too damn intertwined for our quaint US constitution anymore?
- 6:21Speaker 9: The government that is best for the people is the
- 6:25government that is closest.
- 6:27Speaker 8: To the people.
- 6:28Speaker 9: Now, you've pointed out a bunch of times that we
- 6:31got the same number of representatives for a whole lot
- 6:34more population they've had when they limited at four thirty five.
- 6:39The reason they're not going to let it be more
- 6:41than that is they don't want dilution of power that
- 6:43they have.
- 6:44Speaker 8: And here's a dirty little secret about that bill. It's
- 6:47a racist bill. It was designed to keep the black
- 6:50population from getting any more say in Congress than they had,
- 6:55And I wish Al Sharpton and some of those people understood.

- 13:13Speaker 2: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today,
- 13:18I do.
- 13:32Speaker 8: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
- 13:34across the talk media network four three four eight eight
- 13:37two four two one seven is how you do the
- 13:39voodoo that you do so well, because you know, the
- 13:42news is the news, and sometimes we find stuff you
- 13:45don't hear everywhere else. Sometimes we share things that you
- 13:48don't hear everywhere else, and that's fine, especially perspectually. And
- 13:54if you hear something you've never heard before, call or
- 13:56text and say I never heard that before, or I
- 14:00think you're nuts, which is another way of saying I've
- 14:03never heard that before, and it's okay. I don't mind
- 14:07because I'm you know, I've been called nuts by my
- 14:10own family, so you know, why shouldn't you join in
- 14:13the party and do so? And I don't mind being
- 14:17out here before everyone else. I like to tease and
- 14:21say how loath I am to say I told you so?
- 14:25But I do it a lot, and I don't. It's
- 14:27not with mean spirit. It's just like, you know, when
- 14:30you hear something that just doesn't sound like what everyone
- 14:33else is saying, that's okay, it's okay to be different.
- 14:38Doctor Clark was on the line with us when we
- 14:40headed to break, talking about the idea that the country
- 14:45is just too darn big for the quaint constitutional government.
- 14:51Speaker 9: They make more money by not saying anything about it.
- 14:54Speaker 8: Yeah, that's true.
- 14:54Speaker 23: Probably.
- 14:55Speaker 9: Oh, we're supposed to have a representative government, Joe, and
- 14:58we do. It's very representative. Unfortunately, the people that are
- 15:04supposed to be representing us are representing the corporate interests
- 15:07that give them more money than we do. And the
- 15:10only way I'll see the way around that is to
- 15:12stamp our feet and make a fuss.
- 15:14Speaker 8: Now, well, no, no, no, no, there is a way.
- 15:17And this is the point of the Convention of States.
- 15:20Let's emasculate the power of the centralized government. The Tony
- 15:26faucis to move billions of dollars to the Wuhan Institute
- 15:30of Virology is just one example of this kind of
- 15:34pork that goes on. If and Nancy talked about repealing
- 15:38the seventeenth Amendment, I want to repeal the sixteenth Amendment
- 15:42and let us you know, have to answer, you know,
- 15:45let them prove to us that we have to pay
- 15:48our taxes for a reason.
- 15:50Speaker 9: So, like Jerry Lewis said, there's a whole lot of
- 15:53pork and go on on. So let's do Epstein Trump
- 15:59briefly and and go Democrats are sold on crime. I'm
- 16:02going to conclusively prove for you and probably everybody in
- 16:06the listening audience, Joe, that there is no Epstein Trump
- 16:12dirt okay for anything that replaced poorly on Donald Trump. Now,
- 16:17Russia collusion hoax, we know it started with the Clinton campaign,
- 16:21Perkins Coey at Obama administration, and then it went through
- 16:25the FBI, CIA, DJ How much time, effort, money and
- 16:30collusion went into the Russia collusion hoax, Joe, there was
- 16:34a whole lot of cludon going on to apparently.
- 16:37Speaker 8: A lot of expensive federal workers working on it.
- 16:40Speaker 9: Yes, Yes, there was a tremendous amount of effort that
- 16:44went into that. Now who controlled everything in the Epstein evidence,
- 16:50the FBI, the CIA, the DJ Yeah, if they'd have
- 16:54had anything that they could have damaged Donald Trump with
- 17:00the path of least resistance, the shortest distance between two
- 17:04points would have been Epstein Trump. This card would have
- 17:09been played and we would not have had Russia collusion.
- 17:13If they'd have had real stuff, they never would have
- 17:16told us that what did he do? He hired hookers
- 17:18to pee on the Obama bed sheets or something. Yeah, yeah,
- 17:24well your total minds right there.
- 17:27Speaker 8: Let me let me let me bring up another possibility though,
- 17:32What if this is still about leverage, as they say
- 17:35on the other side of the pond. What if this
- 17:38what if they do have stuff and and rather than
- 17:41release it to damage Trump or Biden or anyone, they're
- 17:45still using it to get decisions made that might not
- 17:50be in our best interests.
- 17:55Speaker 9: Well, there is that potentiality. The other thing that's just
- 18:00starting to stick in my crop Democrats are soft on crime.
- 18:05What happened in Charlotte is because Democrats are.
- 18:10Speaker 5: Too soft to put people in jail.
- 18:12Speaker 9: What happened in Auburn, Alabama is because Democrats are soft
- 18:15on crime. They're not soft on crime, Joe. They do
- 18:20everything they can to promote crime. Think about it for
- 18:24just a minute. Could Adolf Hitler and national socialism have
- 18:31taken root in Germany if not for the total economic
- 18:36collapse of the Weimar Republic, total disarray, and he brought
- 18:41in order well.
- 18:43Speaker 8: And even then with all that in the collapse of
- 18:45the Weimar Republic and all that they still needed to
- 18:48fake up crystal knocked to the final push the everyone
- 18:54into the box cars.
- 18:55Speaker 9: You've got to have a Crystal Knocker, a George Floyd
- 18:58every now and then to get the revolution going. So
- 19:02the solid Communists takeover or not falling, but Linen takeover
- 19:08of Russia. If not for the complete collapse of the
- 19:13Tsar estate, they could not have fomented that revolution.
- 19:17Speaker 8: And ignorance of the economic reality. Same thing led to
- 19:21you know, Marie Antoinette, and can't they eat cake one minute?
- 19:29Speaker 9: So what we're seeing with crime right now is they
- 19:34are tilling the soil. They've got to create chaotic soil
- 19:38to implement what they want to implement. Only when things
- 19:42get bad enough will we accept what they want to impose,
- 19:47which will be ordered and disciplined.
- 19:49Speaker 8: And we'll vote for it, just like they voted for
- 19:53the chancellor in Germany, and just like they for all
- 19:57these revolutionaries that bespectacle.
- 20:01Speaker 9: Ben Franklin guys say about trade and security for liberty.
- 20:05Speaker 8: You'll have neither, nor do you deserve any something like that?
- 20:10Four three four eight eight two four two one seven
- 20:13do we have the clip? Oh shoot, let me read
- 20:17this textas is a This is a good point, Joe.
- 20:20You missed what doctor Clark was saying. Mike writes in
- 20:24what he was saying is they never would have had
- 20:27to have done the Russian collusion if there was anything
- 20:31really in the Epstein file. Oh all right, I'm sorry.
- 20:34I cart and horse were in the wrong order. Uh there,
- 20:38I've misordered my cart and horse. Uh there. So, so
- 20:42what Clark was saying I misunderstandified. It's like listening to
- 20:47Al Sharpton. If you missed the early parts of the program.
- 20:53This was Al Sharpton apparently trying to launder his image
- 20:57over the whole to wanna only mess and everything that
- 21:01has followed his career.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Since I've down through the years said and been involved
- 21:06with things that I've later said was misunderstood.
- 21:09Speaker 8: Well, I misunderstood doctor Clark. According to Mike that what
- 21:13Clark was saying is that they would not would not
- 21:15have had to do Russia collusion if the Trump Epstein
- 21:23stuff was legit. I got you now, and I appreciate
- 21:27the clarification on that one as well. Four three four
- 21:31eight eight two four two one seven. Mac opens his
- 21:34notebook forrest don't forget coming up tomorrow. I say this
- 21:38because I needed to really put pressure on myself to

- 22:06for because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 25: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 22: Is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 23: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 24: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17and health care ability?
- 22:18Speaker 25: Honestly, brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was,
- 22:24members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:30call in with your need that is.
- 22:32Speaker 5: Just, yes, refreshing.
- 22:34Speaker 10: Yes, that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 24: I keep telling people people love meta share and they
- 22:38love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
- 22:41dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 25: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
- 22:46and I mean different in a very very good way.

- 23:01Speaker 15: Hi.
- 23:01Speaker 26: I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary Medical Association.
- 23:06Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:15up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases. AI supports
- 23:20veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:30and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:34on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53center of our profession. For more information on AI and
- 23:57veterinary medicine, visit AVMA dot org.
- 24:04Speaker 7: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 24:08actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 24:13oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 24:18to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 24:23By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 24:28and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 24:33and poor diet can lead to a loss of this

- 28:15Media Network. All natural and free you of artificial intelligence.
- 28:21Speaker 8: It's not for our sports director. And you know, if
- 28:24there's ever a proof, if there's ever a verbal watermark
- 28:28to prove that artificial intelligence doesn't exist. On this radio program,
- 28:33it's my conversations with mac McDonald and and oh so tolerant.
- 28:38The sports Oracle is for us. For me, the guy
- 28:43who just sat there on the couch and said, what
- 28:45you're doing? You know, with no idea, you know what
- 28:48I would do in that position.
- 28:49Speaker 31: It's tyfficult dealing with the guy's IQ is forty points higher.
- 28:53Speaker 8: So it's you'll tell me what that's like when you yeah, no, no, no.
- 28:57Speaker 31: I'm trying to navigate, you know, every morning, you know,
- 28:59it's okay, I gotta what do I bring to Joe today?
- 29:02Speaker 5: You know.
- 29:03Speaker 8: So we dragged sports into this because the Department of
- 29:06Homeland Security has begun the Midway blitz on immigration enforcement,
- 29:13and I connected it. I said, that must have been
- 29:15what happened to Chicago's defense in the fourth quarter of
- 29:19Monday Night Football.
- 29:21Speaker 31: Yeah, last night was you know, And that's the thing,
- 29:24because rookie quarterback JJ McCarthy rallied the franchise, outscoring him
- 29:28in the final period twenty one seven.
- 29:30Speaker 5: He was dog due to for three quarters.
- 29:33Speaker 31: He became the first NFL rookie to rally his team
- 29:36down ten in the fourth quarter in his NFL NFL debut,
- 29:40and he threw a pick in the third and it
- 29:42was seventeen to six.
- 29:43Speaker 5: It was returned seventy four yards.
- 29:44Speaker 31: The next thing, you know, however, one of the things
- 29:47that rookies go through, which is this is kind of
- 29:49the basis of what I was going to talk about,
- 29:51because the commanders have a little test this weekend, but
- 29:55or Thursday night actually, so when you got JJ McCarthy,
- 29:59he's handling interviews though he knows how to, you know,
- 30:02he just he knows how to say the right thing,
- 30:04and especially right after a game with all the you know,
- 30:06sometimes I just want to put EyeBlack on and then
- 30:08take a shower and let it run all over my
- 30:10face and then like go to the drug store and
- 30:12just tell them, oh, I just got done playing a
- 30:14pickup game.
- 30:14Speaker 5: No big deal anyway, J J McCarthy post game.
- 30:18Speaker 32: Oh, it's a real you know, your first NFL win,
- 30:20and you know, I just can't can't be more proud
- 30:23of the guys up front and the defense they were.
- 30:25You know, I was struggling in the first half for
- 30:27us offensively and they at our back, you know, kicking
- 30:29game punts and all that. So I say, by thanks
- 30:33to my team. Right there, it's just all eleven being
- 30:35on the same page. I feel like, you know, it's
- 30:37game one.
- 30:38Speaker 4: There's a lot of.
- 30:38Speaker 32: Things we got to clean up, but I'm really really
- 30:41proud of how we responded because there's gonna be a
- 30:43lot of gritty games in the future.
- 30:44Speaker 8: Kids there.
- 30:44Speaker 5: Do you have do you still have the Bell.
- 30:47Speaker 8: No, I don't that that I lost that in the settlement.
- 30:51Speaker 31: With the other place one because I think I think
- 30:54I was I really a I miss it be the cliche.
- 30:57Speaker 5: Bell was iconic and I really so.
- 31:01Speaker 31: I'm gonna order one from Amazon today and uh it
- 31:03tobably delivered today because they don't have anything else going
- 31:06on what else they gonna bring? So but I think
- 31:09I definitely think we need the cliche Bell. It's too
- 31:11much fun because you go through the year and just
- 31:13and then you.
- 31:13Speaker 8: Get he's well coached. He can't he can't tell the
- 31:16difference between a Chicago Bear cornerback and his receiver, but
- 31:20he knows the cliches to run out.
- 31:22Speaker 31: Yeah, we could narrow we could narrow it down to
- 31:24like Bill Belichick stuff, you know, Rabel, it was so
- 31:27funny the Patriots.
- 31:28Speaker 5: Rabel said, uh uh, well, he says.
- 31:31Speaker 31: We we like for Bill Belichick to come in our
- 31:33building if he wants to please.
- 31:37Speaker 5: After after Belichick said no Patriots.
- 31:39Speaker 31: You know, will be allowed in our You know, part
- 31:42of that's probably Jordan Hudson, by the way, during his
- 31:44first press conference, they lost, you know, when they lost
- 31:47and when they got blown out by TCU the dice
- 31:51the podium had this balloon prom homecoming looking thing. It
- 31:56was a big oh, it was a big what I
- 31:58one will say, not a tent, but.
- 32:00Speaker 5: A balloon half circle.
- 32:03Speaker 8: Okay, went from the floor to floor, Yeah.
- 32:06Speaker 31: The podium and said, well, that has to be a
- 32:09Jordan Hudson thing for her, you know, for her coach.
- 32:11Speaker 5: For it looked so out of character.
- 32:13Speaker 31: Do you think Bill Belichick with the Patriots would have
- 32:15had bonh.
- 32:17Speaker 8: My god, he barely celebrated those Super Bowl wins. He's like, well,
- 32:21we're looking forward to a training camp next year.
- 32:23Speaker 5: Yeah, that's one thing on.
- 32:25Speaker 31: The field and then dropping confetti, but over your press
- 32:28conference by all.
- 32:29Speaker 5: These blues anyway, all right, all right.
- 32:31Speaker 31: The Commander's offensive line was significantly upgraded through the off season,
- 32:36and that's going to be a big part of what's
- 32:37going to happen. The Commanders are three point dogs to
- 32:40the Packers. The Packers dominated the Lions, Okay in Week one.
- 32:45Jordan Love is the real deal, and uh so Pro
- 32:48Bowl left tackle Laramie Tunsel. You know when they when
- 32:52they when the Commanders got him, and then they used
- 32:56their first round pick Josh Connerley Junior at right tackle. Now,
- 33:00every the whole offensive line is going to get to
- 33:02know Michael Parsons right. Well, Parsons leaves the division, the
- 33:06Commander's Division from you know, for the Cowboys naturally and
- 33:09now goes with the Packers, and he's had a lot
- 33:11of success. Thirty two tackles, ten and a half sacks
- 33:15of forced fumble. Parsons personally is six and two against
- 33:20the Commanders.
- 33:21Speaker 18: Now.
- 33:21Speaker 31: Dan Quinn took us through in his press conference the
- 33:24other day, took us through what you tell a rookie when.
- 33:28Speaker 5: You're getting ready to face the guy. So, you know,
- 33:31talking to Connory saying, you.
- 33:33Speaker 31: Know, we've got to keep our guy, Jayden Daniels, We've
- 33:37got to keep him upright.
- 33:39Speaker 5: Anyway, you'll find.
- 33:40Speaker 33: This interesting really even as we're going through, like how
- 33:43do you go about preparing for a game? You know,
- 33:45like the difference between like watching film and studying film.
- 33:47Here coaches say, hey, watch the film, Like what the
- 33:50hell does that mean? It's what are you looking for? Specifically?
- 33:54You know, what's the thing that the tell What are
- 33:56you trying to find? What can you measure against it?
- 33:58And so you're fineing out what a player's strengths is
- 34:01and you know yours and then try like Hill to
- 34:04not put yourself in a spot that allows him to,
- 34:07you know, use his strengths against you. You don't want
- 34:10to fight any fair fights. You want to make sure
- 34:11you have the right leverage, the right techniques and to
- 34:14beat that player.
- 34:15Speaker 8: So it's really important.
- 34:16Speaker 31: Yeah, you just don't put a rookie in the room
- 34:18orre you send him home with the iPad and go okay.
- 34:20I want you to study Michael Parsons because you've got to.
- 34:23You have to study him. But it's study him, not
- 34:26just watch him. And there is a big difference in
- 34:28the NFL and especially and Dan Quinn had an interesting
- 34:31comment about rookies. He said they make a vast improvement
- 34:36from week one to week two because now they kind
- 34:38of get it. They've had their game, they made the
- 34:39preseason games, but now they really get it. And it's like,
- 34:42you know, what was the movie? It was a movie
- 34:45or you know, hard not whether they're talking about the
- 34:48pressure on the knuckles. You look at somebody's white hand,
- 34:51if you see the blood leaving his hand, then you
- 34:55know he's definitely coming on a blitz because.
- 34:57Speaker 8: Oh yeah, it's how you put your hand in the
- 34:59ground and if it's if it's on your knuckles, on
- 35:02your finger, well that's you know, you never hear these
- 35:06guys talk about tells. It's like playing cards against something exactly,
- 35:10you know.
- 35:10Speaker 31: And so that's but that's a big part of the
- 35:13game of football.
- 35:16Speaker 8: Then the Yankees just rip Max Scherzer, and I was
- 35:19I went back to video of Max Scherzer when he
- 35:21was with the Nationals, you know, because I like to
- 35:24cry and torture myself back when we had pictures like that.
- 35:28And and and he would hold his glove in the
- 35:31set position at his chest against the Yankees. It's up
- 35:35like over his head, like he's some sort of softball pitcher.
- 35:39And and then the guy on first base saw how
- 35:41he was holding the ball, held out his arms, and
- 35:44there are people complaining, saying that sign stealing. I said, no,
- 35:48he saw how he was holding.
- 35:49Speaker 5: Hey, it's a change up. You know. It's like when
- 35:52I was in it was like and I.
- 35:53Speaker 31: Was in a little league and I had trouble understanding
- 35:56the You know, Gordy, my my good friend, Gordie hirsch Eiser,
- 35:59his brother's oral and he's coached youth baseball forever and
- 36:02ever and ever, and Gordy runs me through the signs,
- 36:05you know, And I said, you know that's why I
- 36:07give you the sign.
- 36:08Speaker 5: Do you notice when we the sign of so Gordian was.
- 36:11Speaker 31: Giving I said, yeah, I said, I struggled and literally
- 36:14that when when the third base coach was giving me the.
- 36:17Speaker 5: Sign whatever, I turned around. He just finally went, but
- 36:23oh I get it, Thank you, Thank you coach. I understand.
- 36:26I just didn't get was it ear nose or was
- 36:28it ear letters? Was it you?
- 36:31Speaker 8: I was a catcher And and and for everyone who
- 36:34knows the phrase the tools of ignorance, you understand, you know,
- 36:37one career follows the other, especially hater's got a hate.
- 36:41But uh, you know, when you start getting into third
- 36:43sign indicator and if I touched my kneepad, it's it
- 36:48means this. If I touched my face mask, it means
- 36:51that you know it's all that you know it. But
- 36:54it's it's like what Quinn was saying, it's just because
- 36:58if you know what's coming, it makes it a lot easier,
- 37:01unless you're facing like Nolan Ryan, when you're like, all right,
- 37:04he's throwing the heat. Good luck.
- 37:07Speaker 31: Yeah, there was a great piece talking about there was
- 37:10a great piece on Maddix, who you know, bitch for
- 37:13the Braves for so long.
- 37:13Speaker 5: Enow smart he was.
- 37:14Speaker 31: They were up eight to nothing and they had a
- 37:16guy they knew they were going to see in the playoffs.
- 37:18Speaker 5: I remember the exact team.
- 37:19Speaker 31: So Maddix told his catcher, I'm going to give him
- 37:22a I'm going to give a change up right in
- 37:24the middle. I want him to jack the home run.
- 37:26And so the catcher couldn't understand, you know, he said,
- 37:28what are you doing it? Anyway, he lets him hit
- 37:30the home run, and they went in the dugout and
- 37:33Maddis goes, we're going to see him again in the postseason.
- 37:35Speaker 5: He's gonna expect that same pitch.
- 37:37Speaker 31: He goes, now, I got him, says I got him,
- 37:40and sure enough struck him out.
- 37:42Speaker 5: Three times in the postseason.
- 37:44Speaker 31: Oh that's smart, that's play, so brilliant.
- 37:48Speaker 8: Those things we love so brought to you Tuesday, brought

- 43:47Speaker 3: If you see a buzzed warning sign, call for a
- 43:49ride when it's time to go home. Buzz driving is
- 43:52drunk driving. A message from NITZA and the AD Councils Radio.
- 43:56Speaker 6: It's one on a need to know basis, because you
- 44:14need to know the first thing today.
- 44:18Speaker 8: You for letting me be of service to you. And
- 44:21it's a busy time for a lot of folks. And
- 44:27just this week, got a September eleventh event coming up
- 44:32on Thursday, and then of course you heard us talking
- 44:34about Convention of States on the thirteenth on Saturday, and
- 44:38then we're getting into walk to end Alzheimer's season. I've
- 44:42been asked to be the master of ceremonies at the
- 44:49at the Shenandoah Valley the Greater Stanton Augusta walk. That's
- 44:53our flagship city there, and Sherry Owen from the Alzheimer's
- 44:57Associations on withus. I was going through the maps. Holy cow,
- 45:01we've already had walks to end Alzheimer's. That happened like
- 45:04two days ago, so they've already begun. I was looking
- 45:07in Oregon for at least the Willamette Value out by
- 45:12Carvallis where we are. That's coming up on Sunday is
- 45:16the walk to end Alzheimer's. So it's it's put up her,
- 45:19shut up time. We're walking already, Joe.
- 45:23Speaker 23: We've got seventeen walks this weekend.
- 45:25Speaker 8: Wow, and you have time and you have time to
- 45:29talk to me.
- 45:31Speaker 35: Okay, those are not my walks, but let me tell
- 45:34you walk season is in full swing right now. I
- 45:37mean we've got six hundred across the country this fall,
- 45:41and they started last week and are going through November.
- 45:46So we are up and rare to go. I am
- 45:49so proud of our Greater Augusta Walk. We're sixty three
- 45:52percent to goal already.
- 45:54Speaker 8: That's awesome. Yeah, And you know it's so neat when
- 45:57you get so close to goal and people are I've
- 46:02actually experienced it where we've made it past goal during
- 46:06the walk, like people left, hey we're at ninety five percent,
- 46:10and then they get back like, hey we're at one
- 46:11hundred and five percent or any because people keep, especially
- 46:15now with technology, people are fundraising while they're walking, aren't they.
- 46:21Speaker 23: They absolutely are. It's it's amazing.
- 46:24Speaker 35: I've had so many fun phone calls and emails this
- 46:27week of people who have made their goal or surpassed
- 46:30their goal, or called me to tell me they've raised
- 46:32their goal. It's just really exciting. And there's still opportunities.
- 46:37I had a team registered just yesterday, so there's still
- 46:40opportunities to register to participate in so many different ways.
- 46:46Speaker 8: Now. Of course we were talking about Oregon, different climb.
- 46:49I'm checking all of our friends down in Florida. You know,
- 46:53Tampa's October eighteenth, the Treasure Coast, hamp and John and
- 46:58all the guys there. Treasure Coast. That's not till November
- 47:00one Daytona November first as well. Florida is a different thing.
- 47:06I mean, Florida is still probably one hundred and five
- 47:08degrees right now, So give people a little break. You
- 47:13can walk earlier in Oregon then you can in Florida,
- 47:16but you can. And the reason I bring this up
- 47:19is more than my fair share of times, you know,
- 47:23with the grandest of plans to make a walk team,
- 47:26especially in honor of my father in law who descended
- 47:31into Alzheimer's in a very strange way. And it was
- 47:33the Alzheimer's Association that really helped my wife and I
- 47:37grasp it. You get to walk day and you're like,
- 47:41oh gosh, I want to do something, you know, and
- 47:43it's important because you and I have talked, Sherry about
- 47:46how much greater a population we have of folks who
- 47:52are descending into Alzheimer's or at least first degree connected
- 47:56to it. It's you know, people want to do something.
- 48:00You can show up if you just go to alz
- 48:04dot org and go to the Walk to End Alzheimer's map,
- 48:07find the one next to you in Hannibal, mo Or
- 48:10wherever you are, and just show up. Just show up
- 48:13that day. They'll take your money because it's going to
- 48:16go to a good cause anyway. If you can get
- 48:18ten people to walk with you, I hope you have
- 48:20ten friends, even if they're just Facebook friends, get them
- 48:24all to come out and have a cup of coffee
- 48:25with them, and you each throw a few bunks into
- 48:28the kitty. That's the magic of the walk to end Alzheimer's, right, Sherry,
- 48:33It is.
- 48:33Speaker 23: The magic, and that's so so important.
- 48:36Speaker 21: You know.
- 48:37Speaker 23: The question that I get so often is where is
- 48:39my money going?
- 48:40Speaker 35: And it's important for people to know that the money
- 48:43is not paying for the stage or the port of potties,
- 48:46or it's not paying for the DJ.
- 48:51Speaker 23: The money is.
- 48:51Speaker 35: Going right back into our communities for the research, which
- 48:56is every single day I'm reading new FDA approved drugs
- 49:00or a new research or something else has been.
- 49:02Speaker 23: Found out about it. And that's what the money is
- 49:06going for.
- 49:06Speaker 35: And so people need to realize that that they are
- 49:09really making they're really really helping it out in this cause.
- 49:16We are looking for a cure, and I strongly believe Joe,
- 49:21in our lifetime, we're going to find a cure. And
- 49:23it's because of everybody that walks, and everybody that fundraises
- 49:27and everybody that donates.
- 49:28Speaker 8: You know, we were talking about this a little bit
- 49:30earlier in a different milieu, but the idea of getting
- 49:33frustrated with progress and I thought back, you know, because
- 49:38it does, these things don't move, that it's glacial. If
- 49:41you want to use that phrase. But my first walk
- 49:44to end Alzheimer's was in nineteen ninety nine, and we
- 49:47spent most of our time explaining what Alzheimer's was. That
- 49:52we were struggling to try to make a thirty second
- 49:54promotional announcement because we were trying to explain what this
- 49:57thing that we were walking about was, you know, And
- 50:02now here we are on the cusp of figuring it out.
- 50:06I've got the greatest hope of you know, being able
- 50:09to know more about what's happening with the brain chemistry.
- 50:13We've we've learned so much about why the plaque build
- 50:16ups that cause Alzheimer's are coming in, and those things
- 50:20lead to cures. But that's you know, twenty six years.
- 50:23If you're not thinking long game, you can think twenty
- 50:27six years is a long time until you look back
- 50:29and you say, look at how far we've come.
- 50:33Speaker 35: Look at how far we've come. You know, we've got
- 50:35seven million Americans that are living with.
- 50:37Speaker 23: The disease right now.
- 50:40Speaker 35: And the fact that we are finding out that they
- 50:43just approved the biomarker blood test for early onset, that
- 50:49we just have the Pointer study that's talking about all
- 50:54of this stuff is on our website, if you can
- 50:56find out about all of this information and all of
- 50:59these new things that are just coming out, it's just
- 51:01so it's so exciting. And at our walks we're gonna
- 51:04have information about this too, so you know, people they
- 51:08can come and walk, but they can also come.
- 51:09Speaker 23: And learn, and that's what's so important.
- 51:12Speaker 5: Now.
- 51:12Speaker 8: The Great Augusta Walk where I will be speaking is
- 51:16October fourth, but then just up the road in Harrisonburg.
- 51:18Another one of our great cities is November one, September
- 51:22twenty seventh in Dalton, Georgia. You've got a couple of
- 51:25walks in Youngstown, Ohio. I've spent all this time talking
- 51:28about all these Trans Siberian Orchestra shows that are coming
- 51:32to all the places you can hear us. There's a
- 51:34walk to end Alzheimer's. Everywhere that you're tuning into the
- 51:39radio station except maybe Lowell. You probably have to go
- 51:43up to Northeastern in andover on October nineteenth. But there's
- 51:49a walk for you somewhere, Sherry.
- 51:52Speaker 23: There absolutely is.
- 51:53Speaker 35: You know, We've got our walk in Charlottesville October twenty sixth,
- 51:57the day before in Lynchburg October twenty fifth.
- 52:00Speaker 23: So there's opportunities all over the place.
- 52:04Speaker 35: I've got people who live in Greater Augusta who said
- 52:06I can't do October fourth, And I'm going to find
- 52:08another one in our chapter, which.
- 52:10Speaker 23: Is absolutely possible. And I will tell you, Joe that I'm.
- 52:16Speaker 35: Working with a group in Lexington and on September twentieth
- 52:19we're going to have We're going to make our own
- 52:22walk on September twentieth and Lexington. So there are just
- 52:26so many opportunities out there.
- 52:29Speaker 8: Well, thank you for everything you do. And like you said,
- 52:31all this research and all these breakthroughs have been because
- 52:35of people who are already starting to walk. My gosh,
- 52:39cherryoh and alz dot org. Our flavor is at CWVA,
- 52:45but find yours at alz dot org. And you have
