- 0:39Speaker 5: Memorial Day Monday, and a reminder we have this three
- 0:43Speaker 5: day weekend because many people never came home. We sent
- 0:49Speaker 5: a and I'm sure it was AI generated. It has
- 0:52Speaker 5: the graphical imagery that is indicative of AI generated art.
- 0:58Speaker 5: A friend of mine was sharing it and I was
- 1:00Speaker 5: struck by it. It's scene of people sitting on the
- 1:04Speaker 5: grass and picnic chairs and the folding chads and sitting
- 1:10Speaker 5: by the beach playing volleyball and drinking beers and cooking
- 1:14Speaker 5: out hamburgers and hotels, and the scene is being held
- 1:22Speaker 5: up in a very dark depiction I mean makes Pink
- 1:25Speaker 5: Floyd albums look light and cheerful, dark depiction of soldiers
- 1:30Speaker 5: in darkness and in struggle holding up those revelers in
- 1:37Speaker 5: the above, and I looked and I looked, and I
- 1:39Speaker 5: looked in the picture, and I couldn't quite figure out
- 1:41Speaker 5: what it was that troubled me about it. And it's
- 1:44Speaker 5: not that we don't talk about why we have a
- 1:46Speaker 5: three day weekend and the importance of remembering that it's
- 1:49Speaker 5: not just so we can have friends over for a
- 1:52Speaker 5: barbecue or anything like that. But it almost struck me
- 1:57Speaker 5: as Marxist that that there was an elite class that
- 2:04Speaker 5: was being held up by this. And it's not the
- 2:07Speaker 5: imagery I want for this is that we should be
- 2:10Speaker 5: celebrating those we should be holding them up. And maybe
- 2:14Speaker 5: there are people in the world that have that dark
- 2:17Speaker 5: view of what Memorial Day has become. Then we need
- 2:21Speaker 5: to fix that. We need to fix that much coming
- 2:26Speaker 5: into the way of text messages emails, of course, you
- 2:28Speaker 5: know how the roles. We tell you what went on, uh,
- 2:32Speaker 5: and then we give you a chance to tell us
- 2:33Speaker 5: how it's impacting you. We were talking about the Ayah
- 2:36Speaker 5: Toola being missing, Charles writes in I hear he's hiding
- 2:40Speaker 5: in a closet.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Mother. You don't avalanjin.
- 2:45Speaker 7: We don't have homosexuals like.
- 2:47Speaker 3: In your Admitri.
- 2:50Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny to get Mahmud Ahmadinijad back into the
- 2:54Speaker 5: discussion over what's going on in Iran. Very funny, Charles
- 2:59Speaker 5: gets it, you know, because of course that's the story
- 3:01Speaker 5: out of Iran is they don't want Iotola Junior because well,
- 3:06Speaker 5: I guess he figured he'd never have to be actual Ayatola.
- 3:10Speaker 5: But there's also minor attracted. Yeah, that's all a bunch
- 3:14Speaker 5: of stuff. I don't know. We can get into it
- 3:17Speaker 5: with you as time progresses. This morning, as we go,
- 3:22Speaker 5: there is supposedly a deal in between the United States
- 3:26Speaker 5: and Iran, and Marco Rubio was asked about it in
- 3:31Speaker 5: India this morning. We're still work in progress.
- 3:35Speaker 8: As I said, you know, we thought we might have
- 3:38Speaker 8: some news last night, maybe today. I wouldn't read too
- 3:40Speaker 8: much into it. It takes a little.
- 3:41Speaker 5: While to hear back.
- 3:43Speaker 8: So we have what I think is a pretty solid
- 3:44Speaker 8: thing on the table in terms of their ability to
- 3:48Speaker 8: open up the straits, get the straits open, enter into
- 3:50Speaker 8: a very real, significant, time limited negotiation on the nuclear matters.
- 3:56Speaker 5: And the reason it takes a bit. We're getting news
- 3:59Speaker 5: from CBS now without the burden of having a radio Division.
- 4:02Speaker 5: CBS News is reporting that the Iatola Junior much Staba
- 4:07Speaker 5: Kameeni is reportedly hiding in a secret location. Charles, We're
- 4:11Speaker 5: not sure if that's a closet or not, but he
- 4:13Speaker 5: can only be reached through a network of couriers designed
- 4:16Speaker 5: to conceal his whereabouts. Meanwhile, talking about getting the Straightupoor
- 4:21Speaker 5: Moves open, one of the problems is the Iranian Revolutionary
- 4:27Speaker 5: Guard Corps. Pardon me, it's a mixed up, the Iranian
- 4:30Speaker 5: Republican Guard to the Iraqi Republican Guard. It's the Iranian
- 4:34Speaker 5: Revolutionary Guard Corps has seeded the straight of poor Moves
- 4:38Speaker 5: with depth charges and mines. The RFA Limee Bay is
- 4:43Speaker 5: a British naval ship standing by. It's a mind sweeper
- 4:47Speaker 5: to get the straight reopen. Saturday morning, a an armed
- 4:56Speaker 5: man named a Seer Best tried to roach the White
- 5:00Speaker 5: House was stopped at a Secret Service checkpoint with the
- 5:04Speaker 5: firearm in his hand. That's for Boton and the District
- 5:07Speaker 5: of Columbia. A shootout incurred in which a bystander was
- 5:11Speaker 5: struck by Gunfire's Secret Service says. The bystander, who has
- 5:15Speaker 5: not been identified as in hospital and is in serious
- 5:19Speaker 5: but stable condition this morning. That damaged chemical tank in
- 5:25Speaker 5: southern California cracked over the weekend. Fifty thousand of the
- 5:29Speaker 5: one hundred and seventy thousand residents of Garden Grove have
- 5:32Speaker 5: been evacuated from the area. Fire officials sent in a
- 5:36Speaker 5: team overnight to check and see if the pressure inside
- 5:40Speaker 5: the tank has been relieved, which would create a worst
- 5:44Speaker 5: case scenario of an explosion, according to Orange County Fire
- 5:48Speaker 5: Authority Chief TJ. McGovern, global shares fell. Pardon me. The
- 5:53Speaker 5: global price of oil fell a little bit over the
- 5:56Speaker 5: weekend under the news that there might be a deal
- 5:59Speaker 5: to get the Strait of horn Moves reopened. And those
- 6:04Speaker 5: are some of our first things on this Memorial Day morning.

- 8:07Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 7: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 7: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:32Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:37Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 7: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 10:01Speaker 12: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 12: with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 3: I'm not only in awe of.
- 10:05Speaker 12: Their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 12: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 10:11Speaker 12: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 12: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 12: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 12: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:22Speaker 12: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 12: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:29Speaker 12: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 12: they also perform life saving work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 3: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 10:36Speaker 12: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
- 10:39Speaker 12: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change.
- 10:42Speaker 3: In their blood chemistry.
- 10:43Speaker 12: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
- 10:45Speaker 12: contribute to society and help those in need. So please

- 10:51Speaker 12: dogs and all the amazing animals on this planet we
- 10:54Speaker 12: inhabit together.

- 11:07Speaker 2: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 11:10Speaker 2: art and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Who's with me?

- 13:20Speaker 1: I'm calling first Thing today by Joe Thomas on the
- 13:24Speaker 1: top media network to.
- 13:34Speaker 5: Me, oh so good to me, Dan writes into four
- 13:46Speaker 5: three four eight eight two four two one seven. Joe,
- 13:49Speaker 5: you need to have some sort of warning, like the
- 13:52Speaker 5: sound of the Chicago Bulls Entry music building up behind you,
- 13:57Speaker 5: if you're going to do something like that, so I
- 13:59Speaker 5: can make sure I don't have a mouthful of first
- 14:02Speaker 5: free in the morning coffee which you play makma almadinujad.
- 14:08Speaker 5: After a comment like that, thank you, Charles. Now I
- 14:11Speaker 5: have to go clean off my dashboard. So Charles hearing
- 14:15Speaker 5: the news story that apparently it takes us a while
- 14:18Speaker 5: to negotiate with Ayatola Junior because he's in a secret
- 14:26Speaker 5: location and you know, very remote. Only can get to
- 14:29Speaker 5: him by courier and ives there and I guess you know,
- 14:35Speaker 5: even Amazon can't deliver packages to him. Nobody knows where
- 14:38Speaker 5: specifically is Charles posited that maybe he was hiding in
- 14:42Speaker 5: a closet somewhere.
- 14:44Speaker 17: You don't av.
- 14:47Speaker 20: We don't have homosexuals like you can hear Amitri.
- 14:53Speaker 5: What's the meaning by that? The great clips of Makma.
- 14:57Speaker 5: It's amazing to see him resurface in our discussions about
- 15:01Speaker 5: what may happen next in Iran. You imagine a world
- 15:05Speaker 5: where he's become the reasonable leader. But understand the point
- 15:13Speaker 5: I was making about the why, the why we're doing this.
- 15:21Speaker 5: This is the the the part we're not selling. You know,
- 15:29Speaker 5: the old FDR fireside chat about fighting fascism in Europe
- 15:38Speaker 5: and why we had to go in to liberate these
- 15:45Speaker 5: people who were being overrun by a regime hell bent
- 15:49Speaker 5: on occupation and subjugation. Not the same here. Iran isn't
- 15:58Speaker 5: invading other countries. They learned a lot when Hitler came
- 16:02Speaker 5: down to the Persian leaders and said, hey, you hate Jews,
- 16:05Speaker 5: I hate Jews. Let's work together. I mean there's some
- 16:09Speaker 5: connection there. Maybe maybe back then we should have addressed
- 16:14Speaker 5: it a little bit better. But remember two hundred and
- 16:19Speaker 5: fifty years of this country, two hundred and forty years ago.
- 16:23Speaker 5: Seventeen eighty six, Thomas Jefferson is in the Middle East. No,
- 16:34Speaker 5: that would be seventeen ninety six, two hundred and thirty
- 16:37Speaker 5: years ago. We were already a country. Seventeen eighty six,
- 16:41Speaker 5: we weren't a country yet, we were a confederation. But
- 16:46Speaker 5: President Washington sends Thomas Jefferson to meet with the head
- 16:49Speaker 5: of the Barbary Pirates because they were kidnapping, in our view,
- 16:54Speaker 5: our sailors, taking our ships and all the goods that
- 16:59Speaker 5: we were shipping, and we didn't know why. We had
- 17:02Speaker 5: no idea, were like, what the hell? It was bad enough,
- 17:05Speaker 5: we were concerned with the British and they were obviously salty,
- 17:13Speaker 5: and who else might be out there to pick on
- 17:15Speaker 5: this new nation? Test us, don't test me, don't don't
- 17:19Speaker 5: roll up if you're not going to roll out, as
- 17:25Speaker 5: we used to say it in my neighborhood. So he
- 17:32Speaker 5: goes in the meets and he did the extraordinary thing
- 17:36Speaker 5: of reading the Koran. And it's interesting you look into
- 17:39Speaker 5: the history of why Thomas Jefferson was it. Who was
- 17:43Speaker 5: the Minnesota congressman that was sworn in on Thomas Jefferson's Quran?
- 17:51Speaker 5: There was a first. I think he was the first
- 17:55Speaker 5: Muslim member of Congress Ellison, right, Keith Ellison. So Jefferson
- 18:11Speaker 5: has this Quran because he's fascinated by law, and he
- 18:16Speaker 5: viewed the Quran as a law book more than he
- 18:20Speaker 5: viewed the Bible as a law book. I think he
- 18:23Speaker 5: thought the Old Testament more so than the New Testament
- 18:26Speaker 5: was a law, legal doctrine, so he read it so
- 18:31Speaker 5: that he understood the legal doctrine behind their religion. And
- 18:35Speaker 5: then he goes and meets with the head of the
- 18:39Speaker 5: Barbary Pirates. And after that meeting, he and John Adams.
- 18:45Speaker 5: You know this pair keeps showing up in history, right.
- 18:49Speaker 5: John Adams was our foreign minister to Britain and Jefferson
- 18:53Speaker 5: was our foreign minister to France. Adams tell Washington we
- 19:01Speaker 5: might be able to bribe them, and Jefferson says, we're
- 19:06Speaker 5: probably going to have to end this with a war.
- 19:11Speaker 5: And for two hundred and thirty years, Washington's acceptance of
- 19:16Speaker 5: Adam's idea, maybe we can pay them off and they'll
- 19:20Speaker 5: leave us alone, has led to more Americans dying under
- 19:26Speaker 5: the shadow of Iranian umbrellas. And Trump has said this,
- 19:32Speaker 5: The President has spoken about this, but because we're in
- 19:37Speaker 5: this bumper sticker hashtag world. We don't get into that nuance,
- 19:42Speaker 5: and I'm sorry, I'm not going to waste the fact
- 19:44Speaker 5: that we have four hours together without spending a little
- 19:47Speaker 5: bit more time on what we're actually doing here. Yeah.
- 19:52Speaker 20: I don't like war.
- 19:54Speaker 5: I especially don't like war for dumbass reasons. I think
- 20:05Speaker 5: we were mistaken in our views as to whether we
- 20:09Speaker 5: could beat communism with war. But there is a case
- 20:15Speaker 5: to be made, and I've talked about this with some
- 20:17Speaker 5: of the folks. Were still working on getting Zudi Jasser,
- 20:20Speaker 5: his campaign for Senate in Arizona going on, but more
- 20:27Speaker 5: and more people say that what needs to happen Jasser
- 20:30Speaker 5: is the leader in this is like Christianity or Catholicism
- 20:36Speaker 5: has changed its views on things working on the Sabbath,
- 20:44Speaker 5: you know, we're not stoning people in the town square
- 20:46Speaker 5: for touching the skin of a pig. There are things
- 20:50Speaker 5: that the Muslim community has to let go of in
- 20:53Speaker 5: their doctrine, realizing that this was a doctrine of a
- 20:56Speaker 5: thousand years ago, and that modern Muslims, just like modern
- 21:04Speaker 5: Christians and modern Jews, are not living in the first century.
- 21:14Speaker 5: And so this battle, if it's nothing else, it's for
- 21:17Speaker 5: that core right now that soul of the Muslim faith,
- 21:22Speaker 5: will it adapt to modern times or will it continue
- 21:26Speaker 5: to try to party like it's thirteen ninety nine. And
- 21:31Speaker 5: so the president's actions and Israel's actions, and let's not
- 21:36Speaker 5: forget what I realized this morning. And I apologize for
- 21:40Speaker 5: getting epiphany all of you, but it's this attack on
- 21:43Speaker 5: Israel is the new attack on America. They have retriangulated.
- 21:49Speaker 5: They couldn't get us to stop believing in America, so
- 21:52Speaker 5: they'll make us hate Israel and then by interaction America. Hey,
- 22:01Speaker 5: I'm Brandt and her name is Shary I love.
- 22:04Speaker 21: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
- 22:06Speaker 21: for because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 22: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:12Speaker 22: talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 21: Is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 5: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 21: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 21: and health care ability?

- 23:06Speaker 6: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 6: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16Speaker 6: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases. AI supports
- 23:20Speaker 6: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25Speaker 6: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31Speaker 6: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:34Speaker 6: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40Speaker 6: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 6: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48Speaker 6: your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53Speaker 6: center of our profession. For more information on AI and

- 24:03Speaker 7: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi'm
- 24:13Speaker 7: doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
- 24:19Speaker 7: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
- 24:24Speaker 7: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
- 24:28Speaker 7: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
- 24:32Speaker 7: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
- 24:37Speaker 7: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
- 24:43Speaker 7: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 24:46Speaker 7: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
- 24:51Speaker 7: cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where we

- 28:36Speaker 5: We mixed our metaphors. There you double dip. There, I
- 28:40Speaker 5: know what you were trying to do. There you were
- 28:41Speaker 5: trying to get something else, and it was a rush.
- 28:43Speaker 5: I got you, I got you. It's okay. Four three
- 28:46Speaker 5: four eight eight two four two one seven. Just addressing
- 28:49Speaker 5: the confused looks in the audience on this Memorial Day,
- 28:55Speaker 5: a reminder that it is not wrong to have a barb.
- 29:00Speaker 5: A lot of folks get that implication. It's not wrong
- 29:04Speaker 5: to go to a parade, it's not wrong to have
- 29:08Speaker 5: beers with your friends, designated driver, it is not wrong
- 29:16Speaker 5: to do any of those things, but understand that those,
- 29:18Speaker 5: like so many other things that we point out on
- 29:20Speaker 5: this program, are the trappings of being America. Right. These
- 29:27Speaker 5: are the babbles and bangles and who Hashed that Ted
- 29:30Speaker 5: Guyzell warned us about. The Grinch is trying to steal
- 29:36Speaker 5: from us. And actually the Gringe has learned his lesson.
- 29:40Speaker 5: Instead of him and Max coming down from Mount Krimpet
- 29:43Speaker 5: to try to steal our who hash and our trumpets
- 29:50Speaker 5: and trinklers and front lawn sprinklers whatever it was, I forget,
- 29:58Speaker 5: he has decided that it's easier to get us to
- 30:01Speaker 5: throw them into the trash can metaphorically speaking, because you
- 30:08Speaker 5: tried ten years ago to make you hate America. Didn't work. Oh,
- 30:14Speaker 5: but hold it. What if we make you hate Israel
- 30:16Speaker 5: and then by guilt by association, you can then hate America. Ah,
- 30:22Speaker 5: we have struck gold, Max said the Grinch with a
- 30:26Speaker 5: grinchy stink grin. That's what they've done. That's what's going
- 30:31Speaker 5: on right now is hate Israel equals hate America. In
- 30:39Speaker 5: it you know it because it's the fraudulent logic of
- 30:42Speaker 5: the left. But they're getting better. They've decided that if
- 30:47Speaker 5: they can make you hate Israel. Then, because America loves Israel,
- 30:53Speaker 5: then you must hate America as well, and you can't
- 30:58Speaker 5: stand for it. You cannot. Please do not let that happen.
- 31:01Speaker 5: Go intellectually further in and further up, and don't let
- 31:07Speaker 5: these people who have paid big cash money for half
- 31:11Speaker 5: a century to make Americans hate America continue to do it.
- 31:16Speaker 5: Because it's it's it is what is defiling the memory
- 31:20Speaker 5: of the men and women who fight for our freedoms,
- 31:24Speaker 5: way more so than the blue haired, wild eyed people
- 31:29Speaker 5: eaters out there champing around saying no tyrants, no kings.
- 31:34Speaker 5: Don't make me get up and sing or whatever the
- 31:37Speaker 5: chant is. Hey, hey, ho ho insert something's got to go.
- 31:42Speaker 5: Let me get to you at four three, four eight eight,
- 31:44Speaker 5: two four to two and one seven on this yes, no,
- 31:49Speaker 5: this isn't over. Well. Some of it may have been
- 31:51Speaker 5: recorded in advance because I have to get to a
- 31:54Speaker 5: Memorial Day. I have to do some coverage for my
- 31:57Speaker 5: newsroom here in town. But right now this is happening
- 32:02Speaker 5: on this Memorial Day. Who's this?
- 32:05Speaker 14: Good morning, Joe, It's Joel.
- 32:07Speaker 5: Good morning, Joel. How are you doing this morning?
- 32:10Speaker 14: I'm doing okay? How about yourself?
- 32:13Speaker 5: Just you know, trying to do what we do and
- 32:16Speaker 5: trying to share with it. I go to an email earlier,
- 32:19Speaker 5: we got into this controversy happening around our affiliate in Norfolk,
- 32:24Speaker 5: and a guy texted me said, Joe, don't you realize
- 32:26Speaker 5: it's Memorial Day? Like one person's listening. I don't buy that.
- 32:30Speaker 5: I think a lot of people have to do a
- 32:31Speaker 5: lot of things, especially those folks who are getting up
- 32:34Speaker 5: early to volunteer to help set up these events at
- 32:38Speaker 5: your VFW or your American Legion post or at city
- 32:41Speaker 5: hall wherever it's going on. There are folks unfolding chairs
- 32:45Speaker 5: and getting tents up right now as we speak, and
- 32:49Speaker 5: so we're out there serving them as well. How are
- 32:51Speaker 5: things in Arizona for you? That's good.
- 32:55Speaker 14: I just wanted to, you know, say we remember all
- 32:59Speaker 14: those who you know died in front of us and
- 33:03Speaker 14: around us, and you know that the soldiers and men,
- 33:06Speaker 14: the women, and and I wanted to say this. We're
- 33:10Speaker 14: a constitutional republic and people have to remember that our Constitution,
- 33:19Speaker 14: our Bill of Rights, all those things even allowing us
- 33:23Speaker 14: to I mean, we have we have inalienable rights, but
- 33:28Speaker 14: and those are majorly important. On the number one list too,
- 33:32Speaker 14: But we just have to remember that that without all,
- 33:36Speaker 14: without the Constitution, without the Bill of Rights, I won't
- 33:39Speaker 14: even be able to talk to you right now? Are
- 33:41Speaker 14: those that sacrificed around us And to say, one voice
- 33:45Speaker 14: doesn't matter who the who that cares if it's one
- 33:48Speaker 14: person listening, there's somebody that's actually listening and doing something,
- 33:53Speaker 14: and you're doing something and it's part of our communication
- 33:57Speaker 14: in America. That's what makes us.
- 33:58Speaker 5: A marriage well. And also without individuals, without the free
- 34:03Speaker 5: market that America was based on, we wouldn't have the
- 34:07Speaker 5: telephone for you even to call on. You know, this
- 34:10Speaker 5: is this is the technology that we're using is all
- 34:15Speaker 5: based on this freedom that we have that we have
- 34:19Speaker 5: to cherish and we have to be aware of, especially
- 34:23Speaker 5: when we catch people trying to us, you know, convince
- 34:27Speaker 5: us to give it up. And that's you know, one
- 34:29Speaker 5: of the things we were talking about inalienable rights. Bernie
- 34:33Speaker 5: Sanders over the weekend was talking about the right to
- 34:36Speaker 5: healthcare again, and I'm sorry, that's that's about enslaving you.
- 34:41Speaker 5: John Locke very clearly in and amongst all the philosophy
- 34:46Speaker 5: he wrote that we built our country on, said something
- 34:49Speaker 5: very clearly in his in his writings, you cannot establish
- 34:54Speaker 5: that somebody else's labors are the right of someone else,
- 35:00Speaker 5: because that's slavery. And whether you get compensated for it
- 35:04Speaker 5: or not, or you're given a hut to live in
- 35:06Speaker 5: or whatever, if somebody requires you by law to serve them,
- 35:12Speaker 5: that is that is a slave economy, and you can't
- 35:15Speaker 5: allow that. So, so you cannot be guaranteed the right
- 35:20Speaker 5: of a nurse or a doctor to treat you. Now,
- 35:24Speaker 5: we already have some of that with the laws that
- 35:27Speaker 5: say that if somebody shows up in an emergency room,
- 35:29Speaker 5: treatment must be given regardless, which is always left out
- 35:35Speaker 5: of the Obamacare stuff. But that that demand that people
- 35:40Speaker 5: serve one another is so dangerous. And this guy Platiner
- 35:45Speaker 5: in Maine, you know, it's on the march, and it's becoming,
- 35:50Speaker 5: you know, more and more mainstream, the more and more
- 35:52Speaker 5: they drag us towards this Marxist Overton window.
- 35:57Speaker 14: Well, the other thing too, is the demo crats like
- 36:00Speaker 14: to go, oh, we're a democracy. We have we have
- 36:06Speaker 14: unfortunately to say this, we're not talking about their principles,
- 36:09Speaker 14: but we have democratic principles. As far as our voice,
- 36:13Speaker 14: we're not we're not We're not one hundred percent a democracy.
- 36:18Speaker 14: We're a constitutional republic with.
- 36:20Speaker 5: Well, because you see the mob ruled. You know, if
- 36:24Speaker 5: you get enough people who have been denied or couldn't
- 36:27Speaker 5: afford their insurance or their insurance company bailed on them
- 36:30Speaker 5: and said, hey, do you want to vote to make
- 36:32Speaker 5: Joel treat you all for free as a nurse, they'd
- 36:35Speaker 5: all vote yes because they were screwed over by their
- 36:38Speaker 5: insurance company. Instead of trying to find honest solutions to
- 36:42Speaker 5: the scenario, they'll just demagogue somebody. Oh yeah, well, yeah,
- 36:46Speaker 5: we'll just make Joel and the doctors he works with
- 36:49Speaker 5: serve you for free. And and that's their answer. And
- 36:55Speaker 5: then you'll see a turnout of twenty five percent and
- 36:59Speaker 5: twelve percent of the population will have gone on to
- 37:02Speaker 5: vote for your servitude. And that's the thing that democracy
- 37:07Speaker 5: has to you know. There's vote suppression, all sorts of
- 37:10Speaker 5: things that play into the danger of becoming fixated on democracy. Joel, Well,
- 37:16Speaker 5: I hope you have a blessed Memorial Day. If you're working,
- 37:19Speaker 5: I hope it's a quiet day without any you know, fireworks,
- 37:23Speaker 5: injuries or anything like that. And we will talk to
- 37:26Speaker 5: you again very soon. All right, thanks Joe four three
- 37:30Speaker 5: four eight eight two four two one seven, always first
- 37:34Speaker 5: and foremost. But remember those men and women, And the
- 37:37Speaker 5: best way, the best way to remember and to pay
- 37:41Speaker 5: honor to those men and women who never came home,
- 37:44Speaker 5: is to be absolute, ardent, merciless supporters of all the
- 37:54Speaker 5: rights and freedoms that the Constitution and the Bill of
- 37:58Speaker 5: Rights grant us.
- 38:01Speaker 21: Life can change so abruptly.
- 38:04Speaker 20: Just ask Paul.
- 38:05Speaker 21: He's a hard working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a
- 38:08Speaker 21: young family. Suddenly, though, he develops a rare medical condition
- 38:11Speaker 21: where he lost the use of both of his arms.
- 38:14Speaker 26: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
- 38:17Speaker 26: couldn't use a mouse.
- 38:18Speaker 2: I could not hold my son, who was about a
- 38:19Speaker 2: month old.
- 38:20Speaker 21: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
- 38:23Speaker 21: but they're so thankful that they're members of Meta Share.
- 38:27Speaker 26: I think if someone asks me, like, hey, does men
- 38:29Speaker 26: Share really were I'm living proof that it works.
- 38:32Speaker 2: My four children are living proof that it works.
- 38:35Speaker 26: My arms, which have been healed, are living proof that
- 38:38Speaker 26: menashare works. Just knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing
- 38:41Speaker 26: that our needs are going to be taken care of
- 38:43Speaker 26: when we have some type of medical problem that is
- 38:46Speaker 26: such a huge blessing to us.

- 44:10Speaker 1: A hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
- 44:14Speaker 1: the first thing today.
- 44:16Speaker 3: Right, So the wings on my son's chest make him
- 44:23Speaker 3: one of America's best.
- 44:28Speaker 5: He'll be on man, they'll just one day have him.
- 44:35Speaker 5: When the green ray, I'll verify it. Thank goodness for
- 44:44Speaker 5: the Internet. Back in the old days, and we would
- 44:45Speaker 5: get crazy stuff. People would call and say, yeah, there's
- 44:48Speaker 5: a car wash going on at and they would give
- 44:50Speaker 5: out an address and there wouldn't be a goose. It
- 44:52Speaker 5: was punkin'. It was, you know, in the in the
- 44:55Speaker 5: days when you know, that was the most horrible. Now
- 44:58Speaker 5: we have swatting and all these other things that the kids,
- 45:01Speaker 5: you know, will do on the phone, and it's just crazy.
- 45:04Speaker 5: We used to get a lot of that when you know,
- 45:07Speaker 5: we'd say, hey, you know anything going on this weekend
- 45:10Speaker 5: and somebody would say, yeah, everyone go to this address
- 45:12Speaker 5: and you know, be one of their friends and seventy
- 45:15Speaker 5: cars would show up there looking for a charity car
- 45:18Speaker 5: wash or something. But if you have something texted to me,
- 45:22Speaker 5: I'll verify it and then we'll put it on the air. There.
- 45:26Speaker 5: One of the other fascinating little bits about me in
- 45:29Speaker 5: Memorial Day weekend is I used to work in State
- 45:33Speaker 5: College and we mentioned we're going to be on our friends,
- 45:36Speaker 5: our affiliate, our holiday affiliate, wrsc Out of State College
- 45:42Speaker 5: on Monday, and many times we did stuff in Bolsburg.
- 45:48Speaker 5: I remember being there with Governor Ridge. We actually the
- 45:51Speaker 5: first Alzheimer's walk I ever did was at the Military
- 45:55Speaker 5: Museum in Bolsburg, Pennsylvania. It is one of those who
- 45:59Speaker 5: claimed to be one of the first observances of Memorial
- 46:03Speaker 5: Day as women. And you go through the history of
- 46:07Speaker 5: all of these and it's the debate, is it Charleston,
- 46:09Speaker 5: South Carolina? Is at Waterloo, New York, Columbus, Georgia. All
- 46:15Speaker 5: of these places laying claimed to be the first place
- 46:22Speaker 5: of Memorial Day ceremony, and lots of them had to
- 46:26Speaker 5: do with Civil War battles because what was happening is
- 46:33Speaker 5: these Civil War battles were just blood baths and so
- 46:38Speaker 5: many you know, fields were full of dead bodies and
- 46:43Speaker 5: then burial sites that those left in those towns would
- 46:51Speaker 5: be decimated. I mean, you think about the you know,
- 46:55Speaker 5: what is it statistic I saw a few months back
- 47:00Speaker 5: upwards of eight percent of all American population has served
- 47:05Speaker 5: in the military, and active duty military members is just
- 47:10Speaker 5: a little bit more than one percent of the US population.
- 47:14Speaker 5: But when you go back to the Civil War and
- 47:16Speaker 5: you go back to Bolsburg, Pennsylvania, or Manassas or any
- 47:23Speaker 5: of these places where these big battles took place, never
- 47:26Speaker 5: mind places famous like Gettysburg. Nearly wipe out an entire
- 47:34Speaker 5: city's population, least of the men. And what's a community
- 47:43Speaker 5: to do once everyone's buried? And they would start coming
- 47:55Speaker 5: together just to be together as families, trying to figure
- 47:59Speaker 5: out what are we going to do now with all
- 48:00Speaker 5: the folks who have died in these battles. So these
- 48:09Speaker 5: places are worth visiting to. Bolsburg's got a military museum
- 48:14Speaker 5: attached to it as well, But there is a statue
- 48:18Speaker 5: there that was commissioned as there is in Waterloo, to
- 48:23Speaker 5: the women who started doing these ceremonies of memorial But
- 48:31Speaker 5: when we look at what's you know, our battles, And
- 48:34Speaker 5: we mentioned the World War Two Museum in New Orleans
- 48:37Speaker 5: and our great affiliate down there, gso, but I've been there.
- 48:41Speaker 5: It's it's an amazing site. Their most recent pavilion and
- 48:45Speaker 5: the reason I bring it up is called the Liberated
- 48:50Speaker 5: and they wanted to tell the story arc of World
- 48:52Speaker 5: War Two all the way to those who were freed
- 48:56Speaker 5: from tyranny by the Allied armies, and you go through
- 49:02Speaker 5: that arc and you realize that's our role in the world,
- 49:08Speaker 5: not just to be the shining city on the hill,
- 49:12Speaker 5: but sometimes you have to go forth from the shining
- 49:15Speaker 5: city on the hill to help liberate people who need
- 49:20Speaker 5: liberation from tyranny. And that's a debatable point. That is
- 49:24Speaker 5: a controversial point because people say that's none of our business.
- 49:33Speaker 5: But I believe it is our business at very least
- 49:36Speaker 5: to be the exemplar, to be the economic driver of
- 49:40Speaker 5: people who want liberty. And that's part of the reason
- 49:43Speaker 5: I get so salty about how we've bastardized what America means,
- 49:48Speaker 5: what the United States concept is globally. And I'm not
- 49:52Speaker 5: talking about World Economic Forum stuff. I'm saying free market capitalism,
- 49:57Speaker 5: which is far from the World Economic Forum. Once every
- 50:03Speaker 5: place it gets a foothold in the world, the quality
- 50:07Speaker 5: of life, the standard of living, it goes up enormously.
- 50:16Speaker 5: And that's what we need to remember, is these are
- 50:19Speaker 5: the things that we've forgotten. We have fallen prey to
- 50:23Speaker 5: the bobbles and bells, the fruit of this great nation
- 50:33Speaker 5: that we planted two hundred and fifty years ago. But
- 50:41Speaker 5: the tree is dying. We may have harvested another seasons
- 50:50Speaker 5: full of apples from the tree, but the tree is dying.
- 50:55Speaker 5: The tree isn't getting enough water, the tree isn't getting
- 50:58Speaker 5: enough nutrients. And if we're not careful, the tree is
- 51:02Speaker 5: going to die and all the apples are going to
- 51:05Speaker 5: stop growing. And then we're going to say what happened
- 51:08Speaker 5: to our great apples and they'll blame Trump or whoever's
- 51:12Speaker 5: president at the time, they're already blaming Trump for it. Hey,
- 51:16Speaker 5: I've got to run to a wonderful VFW host, the Efence,
- 51:20Speaker 5: and we will reconvene tomorrow morning. Like I said, for
- 51:24Speaker 5: our friends in Hampton Roads and Virginia Beach on WTAR,
- 51:27Speaker 5: we will bring that special coverage and perhaps more from
- 51:32Speaker 5: what's going on with both the pop up groups that
- 51:36Speaker 5: have forced the shutdowns and the curfews, and now the
- 51:40Speaker 5: neo Nazis who have resurfaced from twenty seventeen trying to
- 51:45Speaker 5: get their riot on there. But as we leave you
- 51:49Speaker 5: here in our flagship city of Stanton.
- 51:52Speaker 6: What do we do with.
- 51:54Speaker 5: The flash shows of the Stanton, Virginia.
- 52:02Speaker 19: To see him than hard.
- 52:35Speaker 16: Name?
- 52:41Speaker 5: All the blazings of freedom are men and women who
- 52:44Speaker 5: fought to bring us on this Memorial Day until tomorrow.
- 52:47Speaker 5: So long and thanks for all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 28: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:55Speaker 28: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 12: It was Metashare that came through for us, and there
- 53:00Speaker 12: there was no hassles, there was no problem.
- 53:02Speaker 28: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 53:05Speaker 28: of such an incredible ministry.
- 53:07Speaker 27: Meta Share is a Biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
- 53:11Speaker 27: share each other's medical expenses.
- 53:13Speaker 16: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 53:17Speaker 16: with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 53:20Speaker 27: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years
- 53:24Speaker 27: old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
- 53:27Speaker 27: each other's medical bills.
- 53:28Speaker 3: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
- 53:31Speaker 3: You can focus on on supporting other people.
- 53:33Speaker 2: Medashare is affordable.
- 53:35Speaker 7: Medishare is biblical.
- 53:36Speaker 23: Medas Share is family.
- 53:37Speaker 27: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
- 53:40Speaker 27: your healthcare and support your family when you need it.
