"Trans-Parent-cy" (FTTxJT Fri 100926 hr3) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: The nine most terrifying words.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: In the English language are, hey. First thing today, by
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh, uh-huh.
• 0:14
  Speaker 4: It's nine, nine words.
• 0:16
  Speaker 5: Can....
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: Can you at least play the other part? Please?
• 0:38
  Speaker 6: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
• 0:41
  Speaker 7: Thanks.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: I'm not. Those are the most frightening words. For the
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: sake of your arguments, before somebody goes off there and
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: thinks that first thing today on the Talk Media Network
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: are the nine most frightening words, they're not nine words.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: So that should save us from the get-go here on
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: our City Elders Friday, where we celebrate the idea and
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: the concept and the management of City Elders as a program.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: And I said this briefly in the last hour. And
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: of course, the point I always make is if you
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: don't have a city elders chapter where you are, find
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: out about starting one. Email Kevin at cityeldersva.org and he'll
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: tell you how easy and straightforward it is to start
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: one for yourself. So you can do it. It's all
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: about putting moral people back at the tillers of power
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: while we work at taking away the tillers of power.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: And that's the thing about faithful people is that, you know,
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: you have to let go to let God. You have to,
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: you know, what is the NASCAR expression? You got to
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: slow down to go faster. All those things analogous to
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: the idea of, you know, we look at people who
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: spend so much time and energy trying to force things
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: to happen. Rather, and I've used this example before, longtime
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: listeners of the program that's been redacted from my resume.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: for the last 17 years have heard me say that
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: life is much more of a surfing competition than it
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: is a swim meet. And by that, I mean that,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: you know, you can practice and you can train and
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: you can have the best board and you can train
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: and practice and visualize and exercise and eat right and
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: all those things. The wave is still going to determine
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: a lot of what happens to you. And so your
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: ability to ride the wave that God sends you is important.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: And that's some of what we talk about here at
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: City Elders and these folks who gather each week to
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: talk about the matters of what's going on in their
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: name in these government halls and how to manage them better.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: So find out more about it. It's cityelders.org if you're
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: looking for one in your neighborhood. If you don't have one,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: start one. Meanwhile, in our first things this morning, President
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Trump's administration announced Thursday it's suspending Microsoft and other firms
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: from a program allowing foreign workers to apply for green cards.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Vice President Vance said that the announcement is because they
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: have caught many instances of fraud in the program. Nidal
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Malik Hassan is the shooter that killed 13 people and
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: injured 32 others in Fort Hood in 2009. His execution
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: will be live-streamed, according to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

  Speaker 4: Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will meet with Ukrainian negotiators

• 4:26
  Speaker 4: Columbus at the White House today. He urges all Italian-Americans
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: to remember his unflinching support as the midterms approach. I'm
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: sure someone will say it's a campaign event and there
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: will be gnashing of teeth, etc. But most importantly, residents
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: boarding up windows, stacking sandbags, gassing up generators along the
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Gulf Coast and then points inland as Hurricane Isaiah heads

  Speaker 4: suspending operations into Saudi Arabia's Riyadh airport because of explosions
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: there that are connected to drone attacks, which are connected
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: to their military support of the Yemeni army in their
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: battle with the Houthi rebels. Houthi rebels, of course, supported
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: by Iran and have been firing ballistic missiles, which last

  Speaker 10: You were strolling along in goodwill. When just past that
• 9:05
  Speaker 10: mid-century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them, nestled
• 9:08
  Speaker 10: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes!
• 9:15
  Speaker 11: Yes!
• 9:16
  Speaker 10: Your favorite half-breakfast pastry, half-all-day dessert food, made into your
• 9:20
  Speaker 10: favorite form of ear candy.
• 9:22
  Speaker 12: Oh, my.
• 9:24
  Speaker 10: Those bejeweled sprinkles have satisfied some unknown hunger within you.
• 9:27
  Speaker 13: Shh.
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: Do you smell that?
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: Shh.
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: That's the sugary scent of shopping success. For this is Goodwill.

  Speaker 4: And with every item.

  Speaker 14: You buy, you fund local job training and more.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: So go forth.
• 9:45
  Speaker 10: Bring home those donut earrings. And bring home so much
• 9:49
  Speaker 10: good to your community.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: Goodwill.
• 9:54
  Speaker 10: Bring good home.
• 9:57
  Speaker 15: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 10:02
  Speaker 15: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 15: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 10:12
  Speaker 15: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 10:15
  Speaker 15: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 10:21
  Speaker 15: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 10:23
  Speaker 15: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:27
  Speaker 15: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:32
  Speaker 15: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 10:36
  Speaker 15: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.
• 10:40
  Speaker 10: Eat better.

• 11:50
  Speaker 4: Then probably.
• 11:52
  Speaker 21: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our

  Speaker 21: first date?
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: Sure.
• 11:56
  Speaker 22: We'll probably stay together.
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: Probably?
• 11:59
  Speaker 20: It's been 23 minutes since I ate.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: I can probably swim.
• 12:05
  Speaker 14: Uh, you should wait 30 minutes.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, now tell me what to do.
• 12:09
  Speaker 23: Cannonball!
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: Cramp!
• 12:12
  Speaker 17: Oh, I have a cramp.

• 12:18
  Speaker 4: Probably.
• 12:23
  Speaker 19: Can I get a mulligan?
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Ready to go?
• 12:27
  Speaker 24: Hey, are you sure you're okay to drive?
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 12:35
  Speaker 20: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 12:39
  Speaker 20: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 12:42
  Speaker 20: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message
• 12:45
  Speaker 20: brought to you by NHTSA and the Ad Council.
• 12:47
  Speaker 19: You know the legal drinking age is 21. You may
• 12:50
  Speaker 19: also know this law protects teens. Find out more at DontServeTeens.gov.

• 13:13
  Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:17
  Speaker 13: Hey, hey, hey, hey.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Kids, that means YouTube and Substack. Okay, and Instagram too.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: And OnlyFans. Thank you for letting us be of service
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: to you, coming to you from our city elders meeting
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: weekly where we gather in a world, and I want
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: to get into the extent in which this cover-up has
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: been exposed over sexual predators in our schools all too
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: predictably as it relates to the transgender movement and why
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: the cover-up is so intense today. and why a bunch
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: of people who just can't say no to national notoriety
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: are saying, oh, don't cover this story, and drag it
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: out into the sunlight, and why City Elders is at
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: the center square of that, because moral people got into
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: the halls of a school board and saw what was
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: going on and said, not just no, but hell no,
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: got kicked out, turned over the tables in the temple
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: of this government school division, A fellow named Jim Dillonback
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: came in, saw what was going on, and said, you
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: know what, not just no, but hell no. Or no
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: to hell. So we'll get into that coming up for
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: you this morning at 434-882-4217 as we lay out the
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: news of the day and find out how it's impacting
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: you where you are as well, because that's the most
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: important bit. That is the most important bit, which is
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: finding out how it's impacting you where you are, Clark.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: And I appreciate you hanging on with this veterinary. He
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: heard me talking about this horseshoe that's being delivered to
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: us and how I'm going to display it proudly because
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: I was told once that the horses are generally running
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: on their middle finger, which I find to be a
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: nice reminder as well. But Clark, you were talking about
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: the evolution of species, but not so much in terms
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: of evolution, but intelligent evolution. design and how we're all
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: kind of made to do different functions, correct? Am I right? Well,
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: different capabilities. Okay.
• 15:50
  Speaker 12: The cat's capable of doing tremendously quick short bursts of
• 15:56
  Speaker 12: things much faster than you could do or I could do.
• 16:01
  Speaker 12: But I can trot out to the mailbox and back
• 16:08
  Speaker 12: and I'd be all right. You make Kitty run 100
• 16:11
  Speaker 12: yards one way and 100 yards back?
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: Oh, my goodness.
• 16:16
  Speaker 12: It's going to take some time to recuperate from that.
• 16:20
  Speaker 12: It's not built for it. And here's what fascinates me.
• 16:24
  Speaker 12: We talk about evolution, and it's like Darwin came up
• 16:27
  Speaker 12: with this brilliant idea. And I'm not going to say
• 16:32
  Speaker 12: that everything he said was wrong.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: And God.
• 16:39
  Speaker 12: You know, we don't have a planetary service center. We
• 16:43
  Speaker 12: don't pull in every hundred years for a tune-up.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: Although sometimes I feel like I could use one.
• 16:51
  Speaker 12: Well, I'm saying the planet, the system that was set up.
• 16:57
  Speaker 12: It's self-correcting and it's constantly happening. And one of the
• 17:01
  Speaker 12: things that allows that is the genetic diversity that he
• 17:06
  Speaker 12: programmed into things. For adaptability. Now, certainly there is adaptability. Evolution, eh,
• 17:16
  Speaker 12: show me one place in the fossil record where one
• 17:20
  Speaker 12: thing evolved into another. There are changes. We adapt. But
• 17:26
  Speaker 12: in terms of evolving, I really have to begin to
• 17:30
  Speaker 12: wonder about that, Joe. I don't know the whole evolution.
• 17:34
  Speaker 12: We think a lot bigger jumps happen. than I think happened.
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: Well, there's also the question as to what is evolving.
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: So there are functions, like you mentioned, within the feline world.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: But you can't say that, yes, genetically, there's carbon and
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: there's iron and those sorts of things. But a cat's
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: not going to evolve into a human if you give
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: it enough time. The natural selection process is more about
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: Within a species saying, well, this with the horse, I mean,
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: there are vestiges of bones in a horse's hoof that
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: could be, if you look at it, vestigials of fingers.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: So you wonder at some point or another if there
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: wasn't something more like a paw there. that evolved as
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: the horse needed to run faster or got bigger and
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: it needed more strength, and it just found that coordinating
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: four clawed paw pads was more work than just running
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: on this one finger. So those are the things along
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: natural selection that could happen over time that I can understand,
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: just like the human animal, once the opposable thumb, and
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: we're not the only ones with an opposable thumb, so
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: the other members of the simian community are not evolving
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: into humans every couple of hundred years, but it gave
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: us the opportunity to escape faster, stronger, bigger predators with
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: more physical attributes than we had so we could develop
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: the mental attributes that we have that put us at
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: the apex of the food chain. We can evolve strategy.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: We can work as teams. We can create communication networks
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: that give us the opportunity to work in those teams
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: to overcome the shortcomings of not being the fastest, strongest, tallest,
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: with the sharpest fangs mammals out there.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 20:00
  Speaker 12: But, you know, you look at that setup that the
• 20:04
  Speaker 12: horse has, And we've got some vestigial remnants of a
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: couple of other digits there. They're very small and thin,
• 20:14
  Speaker 12: but they're there. And I look at that and I'm thinking, okay,
• 20:20
  Speaker 12: they changed the floor plan, but the basic floor plan
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: is still there.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the foundation is the same.
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: Yeah, it was just a modification. And with this genetic
• 20:31
  Speaker 12: diversity issue, We don't see the introduction of new genes.
• 20:38
  Speaker 12: We see selection pressure placed for more of a certain gene,
• 20:46
  Speaker 12: but that gene already existed as a general rule.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Right. It rises to a more dominant position in subsequent.
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: I need to stick the landing on this, Clark. I

• 24:08
  Speaker 27: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch, and nitric
• 24:13
  Speaker 27: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 24:18
  Speaker 27: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 24:23
  Speaker 27: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 24:28
  Speaker 27: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 24:32
  Speaker 27: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 24:36
  Speaker 27: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 24:39
  Speaker 27: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 24:42
  Speaker 27: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,

  Speaker 4: with me. I'm telling you here, Mac. How are you
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: doing this morning?
• 28:49
  Speaker 13: Well, I'm going to educate you even further today. I
• 28:53
  Speaker 13: watched the first two episodes with everything going on last night.
• 28:56
  Speaker 13: By the way, I'd like to thank the Dallas Cowboys
• 28:59
  Speaker 13: for participating this year.
• 29:00
  Speaker 17: What was that?
• 29:03
  Speaker 13: Well, Bucky Irving, Bucky Irving for 165 yards. And, you know,
• 29:09
  Speaker 13: with Cleveland and Cleveland taking the series back to Chicago,
• 29:12
  Speaker 13: a lot of a lot of good stuff happening. OK,
• 29:15
  Speaker 13: I watched the first two episodes. Yes, because the Saban
• 29:18
  Speaker 13: series dropped. All six episodes are available. And, you know,
• 29:22
  Speaker 13: me and I'm a big Saban guy. And, you know,
• 29:25
  Speaker 13: you and I have joked for I don't know how
• 29:27
  Speaker 13: many years about the process.
• 29:29
  Speaker 17: And learning about it.
• 29:30
  Speaker 13: Well, last night, about 24 minutes in to the first episode,
• 29:37
  Speaker 13: we meet Lionel Long. Rosen, who the players at Michigan
• 29:43
  Speaker 13: State at the time referred to him as the wizard dude,
• 29:47
  Speaker 13: who tells the story about going into Saban's office for
• 29:50
  Speaker 13: the very first time. And he sits in and he
• 29:53
  Speaker 13: just said, you're blankety blank. He says, you're dumb. You're
• 29:58
  Speaker 13: a bad coach. He just looked Saban in the eye
• 30:01
  Speaker 13: and he goes, you can't call players dumb.
• 30:05
  Speaker 17: And he went into the whole explanation about it. So
• 30:08
  Speaker 17: Saban didn't talk to Rosen for a couple of weeks.
• 30:10
  Speaker 13: But he got to thinking about, all right, what was
• 30:13
  Speaker 13: the process? What was he thinking about? Rosen comes back
• 30:17
  Speaker 13: and says, here's what you need to do. They were
• 30:19
  Speaker 13: getting ready to play Ohio State. Ohio State, at Columbus,
• 30:22
  Speaker 13: ranked number one in the country. Michigan State, they were
• 30:26
  Speaker 13: 500 at the time. And so he got to thinking
• 30:29
  Speaker 13: about it and thinking about it. Well, Rosen said... Don't
• 30:32
  Speaker 13: worry about the outcome. Don't worry about the score. And
• 30:36
  Speaker 13: that's where the next six, next seven seconds of philosophy
• 30:40
  Speaker 13: came from.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 30:42
  Speaker 13: So I've got, I've got a, it's a clip that's,
• 30:44
  Speaker 13: I don't know, 40 seconds, like 35 seconds long.
• 30:46
  Speaker 17: I'm a let's play.
• 30:47
  Speaker 13: Cause it's, it's from the documentary, uh, from the ESPN series.
• 30:52
  Speaker 13: And it's from the first episode, 24 minutes in, but
• 30:55
  Speaker 13: Rosen talks about how the, you know, where, where he
• 30:59
  Speaker 13: came to this. And he also said that the psychology
• 31:02
  Speaker 13: department of Michigan state said, look, You know, if you
• 31:05
  Speaker 13: have somebody in therapy, you have them for like three years.
• 31:08
  Speaker 13: If you get into sports psychology, you have them for
• 31:11
  Speaker 13: a couple of days before the next game. You know,
• 31:13
  Speaker 13: so he got to thinking about it. And even when
• 31:15
  Speaker 13: Saban went to LSU, Rosen went down there and talked
• 31:18
  Speaker 13: to the LSU Tiger.
• 31:19
  Speaker 17: Anyway, I'm off the rails here.
• 31:21
  Speaker 13: Lonnie Rosen, the wizard dude.
• 31:25
  Speaker 17: Followed by a little Nick Saban.
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: If you present to a great artist a color, here's
• 31:31
  Speaker 7: a color, teal, just teal, he can take that color
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: and put it into a painting where it becomes a
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: masterpiece because he knew how to use it, when to
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: use it, how much to use it. I tossed the
• 31:44
  Speaker 7: concept at him, but he used the information brilliantly. And
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: the process was born.
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: It's the old thing.
• 31:50
  Speaker 31: We talk about playing 60 minutes all the time, but
• 31:52
  Speaker 31: really every play lasts about five seconds. So if you
• 31:55
  Speaker 31: played 70 plays in the game, you'd really be playing
• 31:57
  Speaker 31: 350 seconds, which is about six minutes in the game. So,
• 32:00
  Speaker 31: you know, we even broke it down to that.
• 32:03
  Speaker 17: So there you go. That's where the process is. Lonnie
• 32:08
  Speaker 17: calls it. That's where. It was born.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: But here's the thing about that, and I'm going to
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: take it, you know me, and I like to look
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: at baseball as this redemptive sport where you can be
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: Bryce Harper and muff a fly ball, but then come
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: in and drive a run. Great example of why I
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: like baseball as an analogy for life. But Saban's point
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: is always this. Okay, so the guy got past you
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: and sacked the quarterback the last play. Pancake him this play.
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: This next seven seconds has no connection to the last
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: seven seconds.
• 32:42
  Speaker 17: No connection to the outcome.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: And so you blunt this momentum thing because football players
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: can get caught up in this maelstrom of like, oh,
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: things are going bad. And it becomes a redoubling thing.
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: I've watched football teams have it happen to them all
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: the time. Um, and, and the same is true the
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: other way, but the way you stop that is you compartmentalize.
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: And I think it's a brilliant, I think it's a
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: brilliant business strategy as well.
• 33:06
  Speaker 13: And then it got, it got picked up literally by everybody.
• 33:09
  Speaker 13: And when I say everybody, you know, Doc Witella, um,
• 33:13
  Speaker 13: you know, started to pick it up. Uh, and I'm
• 33:15
  Speaker 13: not saying that, but Doc Witella told the, you know,
• 33:18
  Speaker 13: the Virginia Cavalier team in 1984, he was on the
• 33:21
  Speaker 13: bench for that 84, uh, final four run. without Ralph
• 33:25
  Speaker 13: 17 and 11, bowed out of the ACC tournament in
• 33:28
  Speaker 13: the first game, ended up making a beautiful run and
• 33:31
  Speaker 13: got to Seattle in the final four. But he had everybody,
• 33:34
  Speaker 13: you know, everybody on their backs in the locker room,
• 33:36
  Speaker 13: trying to imagine, you know, making a free throw, but
• 33:40
  Speaker 13: trying to stay in the moment. So that's, that's what Saban,
• 33:44
  Speaker 13: you know, don't worry about the outcome. Don't worry about
• 33:48
  Speaker 13: the final score, play the next play.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: You know, it's interesting. There was a kid. What was
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: his name? Rick something or another on that UVA team.
• 33:57
  Speaker 16: Carla.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Carla. He did okay in the pros, I think.
• 34:01
  Speaker 17: He did pretty good, didn't he?
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: He won a couple of titles.
• 34:05
  Speaker 13: So you hear golf. And you hear it all the time.
• 34:09
  Speaker 13: And especially golfers in their interviews, you know. Stay in
• 34:14
  Speaker 13: this thing because I can't tell you how many times,
• 34:16
  Speaker 13: you know, and there were times where I played fairly well.
• 34:20
  Speaker 13: But there are times, you know, on the 14th tee
• 34:23
  Speaker 13: or the 15th tee, I start to kind of go, wow,
• 34:25
  Speaker 13: all I got to do is par.
• 34:26
  Speaker 17: The next four and I'm going to break 80. You know,
• 34:29
  Speaker 17: and what do I do?
• 34:30
  Speaker 13: And I double three of the four, I shoot 82,
• 34:33
  Speaker 13: and then I.
• 34:34
  Speaker 17: Go home and kick the dog. So that's what it is.
• 34:37
  Speaker 17: That's a phrase. I never really kicked the dog. It
• 34:39
  Speaker 17: was a cat.
• 34:40
  Speaker 13: So anyway, what the, the, the whole project, every golfer
• 34:44
  Speaker 13: got talking about, well, I just, you know, you, you
• 34:47
  Speaker 13: gotta forget the double on 16 and you gotta play
• 34:50
  Speaker 13: the next shot, the next shot, the next shot. And
• 34:53
  Speaker 13: that's where golfer, you know, golfers got in their head
• 34:55
  Speaker 13: that that's, And then, of course, Rotella added his spin.
• 34:58
  Speaker 17: I love Doc. He knows I love him. But he
• 35:00
  Speaker 17: added his spin. Have fun.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: But here's the thing about management. Because I've worked for
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: an awful lot of people who never let you live
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: down a mistake. Like you miss a report or a
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: report is made. And they'll never let you live it down.
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: But when the good managers, they will, like Saban, for example,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: We'll say, all right, we got a new seven seconds.
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: So here's your next report. And we're not going to
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: sit and treat you badly.
• 35:31
  Speaker 17: We had a bad October. We had a bad July. Okay. Exactly.
• 35:36
  Speaker 17: So what you're saying is true. We had a terrible July.
• 35:39
  Speaker 17: Let's focus on August. Or let's focus on Monday.
• 35:42
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 35:43
  Speaker 16: You know, and.
• 35:44
  Speaker 13: So if a lot of people, it really does make,
• 35:48
  Speaker 13: you know, it does make a lot of sense. My wife,
• 35:52
  Speaker 13: a lot of time will start planning, like.
• 35:53
  Speaker 17: She's planning next year's vacation already. And what, babe, I can't,
• 35:57
  Speaker 17: I can't see that far. I got to get through
• 35:59
  Speaker 17: Friday with Joe at 730.
• 36:00
  Speaker 22: Was it Carson?
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: That said in terms of what we do every day that,
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: you know, he would prepare or somebody, somebody in media
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: said that, you know, I never know when somebody is
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: going to listen to me for the first time and
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: I don't want to let them down. And that's important.
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's true in all life.
• 36:20
  Speaker 13: And by the way, after, so, so the, the moral
• 36:23
  Speaker 13: of that little process story, Michigan state goes into Columbus upsets.
• 36:27
  Speaker 17: Number one, Ohio state.
• 36:29
  Speaker 13: You know, and then that launches that, you know, and
• 36:32
  Speaker 13: he was right around 500, Saban was, since the process
• 36:38
  Speaker 13: entered Saban's life. two 65 and 49 as.
• 36:41
  Speaker 17: An ad coach.
• 36:43
  Speaker 8: No, really?
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 36:45
  Speaker 13: So when you want numbers to support anyway, so a
• 36:49
  Speaker 13: lot of good football.
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: And Lane Kiffin still won't follow that process.
• 36:52
  Speaker 13: No, you know, his process is where's my next, my
• 36:55
  Speaker 13: it's Friday.
• 36:57
  Speaker 17: My next check is here. Okay.
• 36:58
  Speaker 13: Upset alert tomorrow, 12 noon, Nebraska, uh.
• 37:03
  Speaker 17: We'll host Indiana. Both teams undefeated.
• 37:06
  Speaker 13: Uh, Indiana is giving Nebraska seven and a half on
• 37:10
  Speaker 13: the road in Lincoln.
• 37:11
  Speaker 17: It might be, they'll have a little Mackie upset special.
• 37:14
  Speaker 13: So to me, you know, just having you look at it,
• 37:16
  Speaker 13: but anyway, it's a, it's a really good, uh, weekend. Um,
• 37:20
  Speaker 13: And a lot of stuff, you know, going on with,
• 37:22
  Speaker 13: you know, Virginia's got Syracuse.
• 37:25
  Speaker 17: UCLA, look at this one.

  Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't want to do that anymore, do we?
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother when they
• 44:35
  Speaker 6: said that man could fly.
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: They told Marconi wireless was a phony.
• 44:40
  Speaker 16: It's the same old cry.
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: They laughed at me wanting you.
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: Said I was reaching for the moon. But oh, you
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: came through. Now they'll have to change their tune.

  Speaker 4: Oh, yes, you will. As we head into this Columbus
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: Day weekend, I appreciate your visit. And I want to
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: get back into the issue of transparency. And I say
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: it that way intentionally there. But our friends, Good for
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: America is the podcast. And Bob Goode. They are going
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: to join us, talk about some of the things going on,
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: especially as we get closer and closer to the midterm elections, culminations,
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: more and more states now mailing out ballots, some of
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: them even to the right people. You never know. And,
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: you know, it'd be the craziest thing if you do
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: mail-in balloting. You say, Joe, why are you picking on
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: these places that have mismailed the ballots. Your sound lives
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: are like President Trump picking on all these poor folks
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: who are just trying to work really hard and mail
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: out ballots because it doesn't work. This is the whole
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: point of all of these obfuscations of our constitutional republic.
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: None of it works. You can't prove a single point
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: where any of it has ever worked out. It's just
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: giving more people more authority on things that they shouldn't.
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: And what winds up happening is it's not even humanly
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: possible to consider every scenario. So you shouldn't try to.
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: Government is classically the square peg that's always trying to
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: be driven into the round hole. And extrapolate on that
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: metaphor as much as you like. So when we criticize
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: somebody from the government trying to come up with a
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: program that's going to help somebody... It's because it's not
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: within the authority of our government. And, you know, it's funny.
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: We mentioned the fact that we have a different constitution
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: than all these other places in the world that like
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: to talk about how they help people. But they don't
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: help people either. They're not helping anyone either. So even
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: though they have a different constitution than we do, their
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: machinations still don't work out. He is Bob Good, the
• 47:07
  Speaker 4: host of the Good for America podcast. How are you
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: doing this morning, Bob? Morning, Joe.
• 47:13
  Speaker 12: Doing well.
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: Hope you are. Well, doing good and trying to do
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: well in between those moments here at our city elders
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: meeting talking about this cover up. And I want to
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: bring this up because city elders work very hard. at
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: getting a member, a conservative, faith-based member of the school
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: board in there, and mysteriously, all of a sudden, allegations
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: of sexual inappropriate behavior on behalf of... And this is
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: the part of the cover-up that nobody is covering because
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: they don't want to. He was assigned to be the
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: trans counselor. So when elementary school kids were, I don't know,
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: told by mom, maybe you're a boy in a girl's
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: body or whatever it is that was going to gain
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: them notoriety, they were supposed to go to this guy, Sweeney,
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: and he was a sexual predator. And it's what you
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: and me and everyone who warned against these radical trans
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: agendas in our schools warned about, which is turning over
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: the keys to our children's candy shop to people we
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: don't know who they are. And I'm looking at national
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: statistics on how many allegations and investigations into sexual impropriety
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: in our public schools. Why would we want this? Yet
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: we keep getting told that this is this is the
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: new way of the world, Bob. You know, help us
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: through this morass of. appropriate behavior, and our kids can't read,
• 48:42
  Speaker 4: so why are we putting them in the hands of
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: sexual predators to discuss what gender they are in elementary school?
• 48:50
  Speaker 22: Joe, that's why these constitutional amendments are so important in Virginia.
• 48:54
  Speaker 22: Morality matters. God's design for morality, marriage, and the family,
• 48:59
  Speaker 22: it matters. I was just reading a familiar quote. I
• 49:02
  Speaker 22: just came across it this morning that you've seen many times.
• 49:05
  Speaker 22: You probably talked about it on air, I'm sure, but
• 49:07
  Speaker 22: it was George Washington's who famously said, of all the
• 49:11
  Speaker 22: dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and
• 49:16
  Speaker 22: morality are indispensable supports. And so, of course, what he
• 49:19
  Speaker 22: was saying is that that was the foundation upon which
• 49:24
  Speaker 22: we were established as a country. Religion and morality matter.
• 49:28
  Speaker 22: And his vice president, the second president, also famously said
• 49:32
  Speaker 22: that our Constitution was intended for.
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: A religious and moral purpose.
• 49:38
  Speaker 22: Country, and it's indispensable to the ruling or governing of
• 49:42
  Speaker 22: any other. And so this matters, Joe. You think about,
• 49:47
  Speaker 22: because the LGBT agenda, and it makes a lot of
• 49:51
  Speaker 22: people who consider themselves conservatives and Republicans uncomfortable to talk about.
• 49:55
  Speaker 22: It does, because we've so surrendered and appeased and moved
• 49:58
  Speaker 22: the goalposts on the issue. But you kind of go
• 50:01
  Speaker 22: back 50 or 60 years when it first emerged as
• 50:03
  Speaker 22: an issue, and you see this slippery slope, if you will,
• 50:06
  Speaker 22: which has gotten to the point where, again, we redefine
• 50:09
  Speaker 22: what is sex. We create this new thing called gender.
• 50:13
  Speaker 22: We redefine marriage. Marriage was created by God. The Bible
• 50:19
  Speaker 22: says that God joins together a man and a woman
• 50:22
  Speaker 22: and the two become one flesh. What God has joined together,
• 50:27
  Speaker 22: let not man tear asunder. And then there's the picture
• 50:31
  Speaker 22: that the Apostle Paul wrote in Ephesians, the book of Ephesians,
• 50:35
  Speaker 22: inspired by the Holy Spirit to write, I should say,
• 50:37
  Speaker 22: the description about marriage, the longest, most exhaustive description of
• 50:40
  Speaker 22: marriage in the Bible. And he said it's a picture
• 50:43
  Speaker 22: of Christ in the church, the bride of Christ being
• 50:46
  Speaker 22: the church, the body of Christian believers together. and Christ
• 50:49
  Speaker 22: being the bridegroom, to suggest that we can just marry
• 50:52
  Speaker 22: any two people, irrespective of their sex, and call that marriage,
• 50:57
  Speaker 22: and it's not going to confuse and harm society. We
• 51:00
  Speaker 22: do that at our peril. And here's the natural evolution
• 51:04
  Speaker 22: of that with things like what we're talking about today
• 51:06
  Speaker 22: with the trans agenda, the LGBT agenda. We can respect
• 51:11
  Speaker 22: adults' rights to make bad decisions and to live the
• 51:15
  Speaker 22: way that they want to live while not hurting others
• 51:17
  Speaker 22: without saying we as a culture and society can celebrate
• 51:21
  Speaker 22: and bless formally the supposed union of two people of
• 51:26
  Speaker 22: the same sex when that's totally contrary to how God
• 51:29
  Speaker 22: created us. It's totally contrary to biology. It's totally contrary
• 51:34
  Speaker 22: to God's definition of morality.
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: And it gives... Number one, I think it hurts those
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: kids who are actually looking for help. But also it
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: puts elementary... This is the Overton window on steroids, Bob.
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: Why are we discussing adults, 37-year-olds in this particular milieu,
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: having sexual conversations with third graders? When I was a kid,
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: that got you arrested for being the 37-year-old having sexual.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: Orientation conversations with third graders. How crazy, I guess, you know,
• 52:12
  Speaker 4: and I guess I mentioned the Overton window is exactly
