• 0:35
  Speaker 2: insisting we're live. There are commenters saying we're live, although

  Speaker 2: but I think we're live barely.

  Speaker 3: I'm good now because I can hear you. I'm seeing things.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: I'm hearing things. It's awesome.

  Speaker 2: But the best part get going, And the best part
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: is none of us don't know what we don't know,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: so we got tray. You should see Tracy standing at
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the monitor trying to figure out where the live feed is.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: And there is no live feed here, so we don't know.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Yasmin's insisting, well, not only is there a live feed,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: there are people watching us now on YouTube who are
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: making comments? Do you find are you on YouTube? On
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: your end? Mark?
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Hang on a second. Let me let me hop over
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: there and see how that goes.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: To talk into the microphone, I'm sorry. Your first week
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: on the air, we talk near a mic Hello, Hello, Hello,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Yes we do anyway? Do I see that? There? We go?
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: Let me see you see see if you see and
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: we haven't.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: We have a new show title given to us by
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: any mc palette.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: It is called Debacle Live, Debacle Live My Life. So
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: you're seeing that? Yes, isn't that weird? I see what
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: you're actually wearing. I see what I'm actually wearing, which
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: is always a good sign. Nice and that nice?
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: There we go, found over, the war is over. Everything
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: is fine, Corners. You will support Paxton just to your day.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: We've both revealed our feelings about that, and everybody have
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: a great weekend.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: God bless them.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Will see Dana White won the UFC Championship. That's over.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Wait wait he Dana White actually in one of the
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: un That was the joke.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: That was the joke I was trying to I was
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: trying to make a funny all right, Riley up and running.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: We think welcome in I and I usually like to
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: look at YouTube. I can't find it on Maybe it's
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: a matter of not fine, maybe it's not in the
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: right place on the app because the the YouTube app
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: is different from what's on the YouTube.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Uh you know, like I'm going my laptop.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Well, I think so. I think Yasmin's looking on the
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: laptop and it ain't on the app. It's not on
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the mobile app. So it's maybe it's just a matter
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: of function of that. But the moral of the story
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: is as great as yasmine and Tony and Tracy and
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: everybody is. Eric can never go away, he can never
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: be That's the only thing left too, because that's a
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: that's about it. But anyway you want to start, you
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: want to start with the movie.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Listen, listen here here I am on my app.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: What are you going? Where did you find it?
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Where did you go on the app on my phone.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe I know that. I get that it's the app,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: But where did you go? So there's eminem extra and
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: you click on eminem extra. Oh there it is there,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: it's live. See there you go.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: It wasn't there before. So that's all the time we have.
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: Everybody will well, and this is a day where we
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: got to do a little bit of an abbreviated version.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: So because I gotta go see it, because I gotta
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: go actually see the movie. Got a couple of things
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: I gotta do before we see the movie. And for
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: those who are podcast denizen's and who are not aware
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: of the radio relationship or don't get the chance to
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: do that, today was going to be actually, today was
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: going to be the day where both Mike and I
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: share our disclosure Day reviews. I was the bad guy
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: first because we had something come up and we could
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: not go last night.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: We're going to go.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Turns out we're going to go this afternoon. Mike still
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: had his tickets, went had a fascinating experience that he
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: shared about earlier, and now has a head full of
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: opinions about the movie that he now refuses to share
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: because he wants to did you. At the same time,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I thought he would share his review, I would go, ah,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: that's interesting, go see it myself with his words hanging
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: around in my head, and then report back Monday and
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: reveal whether Mike is right or not.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: But no, Mike is keeping it close to the vest.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, the reason why, And let me tell you why,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: because I'm not entirely sure how I feel about disclosure day.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you. I mean, I think I think
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I liked it. There's it's obvious, it's Steven Spielberg, so
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: you know there's great filmmaking in there. I don't think
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I've been unduly influenced by all the negative crap that
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: people are saying about it, and you're you're you're minimizing
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: it like there's no minimum.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of natives.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: I think those are trolls, and I think it's I
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: think it and believe you me. I'm never going to
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: be one of those people who says that reviewers are right.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I think they tend often not to be. But I'm
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: a big fan of I've revealed of Metacritic, a compilation site,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: and I guess and app it's basically every review go
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: to any movie you've ever seen, ever loved, ever liked,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: ever or not liked, and Metacritic will give it a
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: score from like zero to one hundred that that's reflective
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: of what every reviewer said. The occasional reviewer can really
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: blow it. But if you've got a film that every
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: reviewer pretty well despised has a really low score, it's
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: going to be crap. Conversely, if you've got a film
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: that just about every reviewer admired, it's probably something of quality.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Might not be your cup of tea, but it's probably
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: something of quality. And the disclosure day Medicrite explore is
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: pretty hot.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the here's my full disclosure. Okay, it's not
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: it's not crap. It's not an awful movie. If somebody's
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: saying it's terrible, that's wrong. But et it ain't. It's
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: you're looked at.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: It's not a rival, it's not nine, it's not star Man.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: And keep it with the Spielberg family. It's not even Jaws.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: It's not even something that.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: That's a hugely high bar. I mean, I guess it's him.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: It's you know, you think I know in twenty twenty six,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: you figure he's going to be able to do it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I want you to see it, but I will I
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: will excuse it's pot since it's the podcast and we're
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: doing all exclusive, unique content, we want to talk about it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to talk about it on the radio
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: show this morning, but I'm going to say it out loud.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I'll say it's a little slow moving, it's a little
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: hard to follow, it's a little cringey. There are some
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: scenes where you're gonna say, oh, come on. I mean,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: inasmuch as it's not particularly plausible, not that it's not
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: suspended to disbelief, plu no, no, no, I'm talking about
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the chases because there's a bunch of car chases, and
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: the car chases aren't very realistic though. Anyway, I want
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: you to see it. I want you to tell me
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: what you thought. I'm going to tell you. I'll give
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: you a big hint. And then I want to talk
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: about John Cornyn. I'm dying to talk to you about
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Senator John Cornyn because you have because you have a
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: role in this. You have a you you you help
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: make news on this, and I want to I want
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to talk about the news that you've actually made and
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: look any enterprising journalist or reporter should should report on
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: what he told you about whether or not he would
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: support Ken Paxton. But before we do that, I will
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: leave you with one parting shot about disclosure day. See
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: if you think the movie has heart, See if you
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: think it's a film that has a heart. That's that's
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: something that all of Spielberg's movies typically have. They have heart,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: they've got passion, they've got you know. See if you
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: feel that there's heart to this movie, and I'm not,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: and I'll let you decide, maybe you do, maybe you
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: think it does.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: I'm going to presume that this means you don't that.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: While there may be some talent on display there, and
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: it may have a plot, and it may have this,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: and it may have that, unlike many of the greatest
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Spielberg movies, it doesn't give you the feels. It doesn't
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: make you come away and go wow, that was an
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: experience that really got to my heart.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah that I'll and then and we'll conclude on Monday
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: after you see it later today, all right.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: I'll be sobbing like a mental patient is saying that
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: it was the most meaningful, wonderful, connective experience I've ever had.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: And it's that, you know, I don't know, you know
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: what you're want. Bobby just asked on the live chat
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: that I now have been able to pull up on
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: the app. Do you know if they're what the Rotten
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Tomatoes score is for this yet?
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: But that's just that's the that's the general public, which
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: is a dicey concept.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: Oh oh okay, Queen Antoinette, Oh Marie Antoinette doesn't care
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: about the general public.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: Mass do, But that's Rotten Tomatoes is probably I'm gonna
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: be generous, fifty sixty even seventy percent honest people, honest
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: brokers coming in giving honest opinions. The rest of it
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: is shills and trolls and performing people.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: So you think metacritic is better, Metacritic is more accurate.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: I think it's a more reliable indicator of what is
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: probably objectively good and what is not.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Got it? And incidentally, speaking of the live chat, the
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: mystery ghost texture from at eminem Extra just posted, did
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: any of you see Disclosure Day? What did you think
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: about it? Which I think is kind of neat except
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: we don't know who this person is. Nobody knows who
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: this person is.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Do you realize that I've got another piece of material
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: from whoever is posting on behalf of eminem Extra. We
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: hope you enjoyed our blooper re.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: That's funny. Well, and what scares me If whoever's posting
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: this is like in a position of authority, We're gonna
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: get fired. We're gonna get We're gonna get our buds camp.
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: We are so screwed.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: We're screwed. If this is somebody important, I don't know
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: who it is. I mean, it's not Ronda, is it
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: or No, Ronda's.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: In Houston at the Texas GOP convention. She's not even here.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: We don't know who this person is.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Hey is by definition it has to be someone with
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: access to our YouTube account signing.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, maybe it's Yasmin. Oh she I think it is. Oh,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: it is her? Well, are you commenting at eminem Extra Yasmin?
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Is that you? Yeah?
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: I go, Oh, I guess it's great. Fantastic is great?
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: So another reason to thank her?
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: All right, Okay, well, anyway, let's get down to business here.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Senator John Cornyn, Now this is a guy for the
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: benefit of people who aren't didn't follow the Texas primary closely.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: John Cornyn is the establishment kind of long time veteran. You, Senator,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: you've interviewed him many times. I've interviewed him on another occasion. Huh,
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: for decades. I remember when he was Attorney General. I
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: remember when he was on the Texas Supreme Court. He's
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: been nothing but a gracious fixture on the show that
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I've done here for decades. Okay, and he was challenged
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: by Ken Paxton, the Texas Attorney General. Fire also been
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: friends with for it for a long long time. Same here,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: you and I both, but I'm not nearly as connected
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: to either one of them as you are. That's why
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: this is really an important, meaningful conversation today in the
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: aftermath of what happened in just the last twenty four hours.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: So Senator Cornyn gets beat by Ken Paxton, and there's
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: all this drama about the race because Ken Paxton has
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: had marital difficulties, He's had personal problems.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Legal difficulty, legal difficult lawsuits. This he was impeached, the
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: impeachment failed. It was a joke, but it happened.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Okay, but it occurred, and Texans went through it all well.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: He won, and he won pretty handily, right soundly, but
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: even close So John Cornin now has one of two paths.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: He could either be gracious and he could either be
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: civil and he could be unifying, or he could be
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: a miserable, wretched, broken man who's going to run into
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: the arms of the New York Times like he did
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: and say, you know, Trump's going to have the most
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: miserable two years of his life. After the midterms, He's
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: complaining about anybody who opposed him, and in fact, he
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: went after Scott Presler. Now, for many people, now you've
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: gone too far. Scott Presler is this kid. Everybody knows
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: him from social media. He's a tall, thin kid with
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: long hair, and he goes out. He's got cowboy boots
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: and he trudges around the country and he does the terrible,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: terrible thing of getting people registered to vote. He encourages
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: people to show up and be part of the political process.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: He's a warrior for for election engagement. And many people
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: thought he could have been a good, you know, party chair.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, for a while there he was floated as
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: maybe a successor to Ronald McDonald, Ronald McDaniel, Ronald McDonald
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: or Ronald McDonald. I'm going to be the successor to
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: run a McDonald if you enjoy our blue for reel,
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: no kid, you go for so so Apparently Scott Presler
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: last night on ex Posts, I ran into Senator John
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Cornyn at the airport and I was gracious to him.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: I extended my hand and I'm paraphrasing here. I don't
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: have it right in front of him. You got it.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: But he basically said, I asked him to please please
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: pass the Save America Act in your closing months as
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: a US Senator. It's all he said. He just he
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: just shared that he.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Needed to dog him.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: A lot a lot of people online will get up.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: We'll run into people at airports and go, man, you're
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: you're sorry soob for not doing the Save Act. What's
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: the matter with you? You're a rhino weasel. He didn't do
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: any of those things. He couldn't have been more cordial.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: He was as court with that. But that's how this
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: guy is. I've interviewed him. Have you talked to Scott
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: before I heard? You should love it and he'd love
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: to talk to you because of your role in all
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: of this. Because we're going to get back to the
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: promise that ken John Cornyn made to you on your
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: show on The Mark Davis Show. But in any event,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Scott Presler lays all this out and everybody loves this guy,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: right and and he said, this is with the encounter
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: that I had with John Corny. John Cornyn reposts Scott
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Presler with a one word response on Cornan's ex account grifter.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: He called Scott Presler, of all people, a grifter. And
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: I guess as I and I thought, are you kidding me? Now?
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Presler evidently did endorse Cornn's opponent, Ken Paxton, So that
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: must be what Cornn's pissed about. I guess he's hacked
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: off at the fact that Scott didn't endorse him, but
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: to call him a grifter and maybe the most egregious
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: of all. Now, in that interview with The New York Times,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Mark he told them he will not be supporting Ken Paxton.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: He has no intention of supporting Ken Paxton. He talked
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: about having some cards up his sleeve to play against
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Trump and against the Trump agenda. I mean, this guy
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: is just broken. And in telling the New York Times
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: he's not going to support Ken Paxton, that is certainly
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: not what he told you in an on air interview.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Take it Away, Mark tell us what Senator Cornyn promised
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: he would do if he didn't win the primary.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: It was actually more than once, and I of course
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: asked both of them. And when I asked Attorney General Paxton,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: I said, listen, you're pretty passionate here. You're the insurgent candidate.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: But if you lose and corn actually prevails, will you
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: support him? And Paxton's answer was, well, I don't expect
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: to lose, but that's what they always say. And I said, yeah,
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: but if you do, would you support Cornan? And he
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: said I absolutely would. I'm going to support the Republican. Conversely,
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: you get to your answer to your question. Senator Cornyn
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: was on this happened more than once. All right, sir,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: here we go on May twenty six. We're going to
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: learn all this. There's the runof Dight, and it's finally
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: going to be settled. It will be one of you
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: and leve a winner and a loser. Will you support
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Ken Paxton? He said, I will support the Republican. It's
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: like he didn't want to speak his name, and I
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: said okay, And I told him at the time, I
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: don't expect to see handclasped joint rallies and you know,
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: a big kumbayatu or anything like that. But just you,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: you will join the rest of us. I'll be calling
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: for unity and you will be part of that unity
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: and will indeed support voting for the Republican, even if
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: the Republican is not you, even if it's Ken Paxton.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: And he assured me, which is assuring our state, our country,
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: our listeners assured us that he would be cooperative, that
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: he would again, he didn't. I didn't make him commit
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: to rallies or a vocal on camera adds, I'm John
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Corn and I think Ken packs it's the greatest thing
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: since slice bread. Nobody is placing the bar that high.
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: Just could you maybe tell everybody to vote for him?
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: And he absolutely said he would do that and lied.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: And it kills me. It kills me by just final
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: sixty seconds to my already love because and I know
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: there are some people who are this morning on the
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: text line, my own text line of kind of taunting
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: me affectionately. I knew he was always going to be
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: this kind of sob.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: I knew it.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: I knew it.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: It's not like I'm shocked, because we all know what
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: the establishment disease can do. To people. It can make
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: you think so so dismissively and condescendingly of those who
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: just aren't smart enough to love the Mitt Romney Paul
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Ryan Era, and who aren't smart enough to know what
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: a bad egg Trump is, that we're just stupider than
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: they are. And of course I knew that this sad
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: display was a possibility, but I held out hope that
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: this man whom I've had all the show countless time,
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: and who absolutely has served our state, in our country
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: in a lot of ways with great distinction, that he
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: would be an example of grace and resilience and would
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: spend his final chapter, this coda of his symphony of service,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: that it would that it would not be the sad
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: caricature of bitterness that it has.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to say, because apparently you were
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: wrong in what you thought, and I know that hurts you,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: and it hurts me because I know you, and I
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: know because frankly, I think you've got an obligation mark
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: in the days and weeks to come. I think you've
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: got to remind your audience of what Corn promised you.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I think it's important and incumbent upon you as somebody
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: who has a role here to play because this is
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: a provable, bald faced lie. This is you know, for him,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: And what people are saying to you and to me
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: is that See we knew all along. I know this
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: is the character of this guy, and I don't want
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: to believe it either. Look, I've interviewed him, I know
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: him a little bit. I mean, but and I don't
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: want to I hate to demonize individuals, but once again
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: we see a politician be exposed for you know, how
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: they truly are. I guess, I guess. I guess he's
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: a guy that hates Trump and didn't doesn't want Trump
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: to succeed. Maybe is he could he be described in
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: your view as a never Trumper.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: I love that that has a real meaning, But that
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: sticks to some some real people, the Bill Crystals and
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: the the other folks who are proudly ex GOP and
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: flat out left. The party labels are tricky, and there
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: are also gradations of this. There are degrees of this.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: There are people who have grown to just hate Trump's guts.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's him, but I think that it. Ultimately,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: he just couldn't get on board. And I will say,
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: you know, and I've got a question and reply to
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: what you've just said about what I ought to be doing,
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: what we all ought to be doing. So I would
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: play some somewhere on that spectrum of somebody who clearly
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: is not a fan, was never a fan, portrayed himself
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: as a fan in an attempt to get reelected, and
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: when that failed, that that that falsity, that artifice fell away.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: So what to do now? Am I?
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Am I going to spend days dog and Cornyn for
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: having lied about about that. I've made observation, and I'll
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: make it again if anybody brings it up, or if
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: we need to. And maybe this is a close cousin
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: to the exercise that you described. There are some people
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: out there. We now know what he's going to be about,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: and if it changes, I'll be thrilled.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: I don't expect it to.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: You don't think.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: I posted earlier today, I'm just a big sucker. I'm
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: just a big not a softie, because I mean, I'm
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: reacting properly to the to the sad story that's happening
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: before my eyes. But I said there is still time.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: I said, there is always going to be time to
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: get on board with every other key Texas conservative who
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: gives a rip about anything and get on board and
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: join the battle to beat Tallarico, because to fail to
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: do that, to fail to do that is an in
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: kind campaign contribution to taller Rico. It is to essentially
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: become a Democrat operative. And so end of my again long,
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: horrible answer is that there are a lot of people
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: out there who I'm having conversations with online, having conversations
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: with on the show. They're trying to get away with this.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: They're trying to get away with this. I can't vote
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: for Paxton. I believe in honor and tradition, in rig
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: and they're lying because they are but hurt because their
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: guy lost. There's only one way to be a Republican,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: only one way to be a conservative now, and that
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: is to full throatedly support Ken Paxton. Because it is binary.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: You either do that or you are willing to tolerate Tallarico,
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: which is inexcusable and unforgivable, or anyone with a shred
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: of conservative DNA.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: And there's no way around that binary choice that people
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: have to make now. Because even if Ken Paxton is
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: not your cup of tea, even if he's not your
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: preferred Republican care. You can't possibly believe that James Tallerico
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: would be better for Texas and for America than Ken Paxton.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: There is no position, There is no policy position, And
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: I would argue that the same rules apply to Ken
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Paxton that apply to President Trump. We ain't electing our pastor.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: We're not electing somebody who hasn't had marital problems. We're
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: not electing people who have not had their share. We
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: are dealing with people who have policies that are good
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: for America, policies that are good for this country, that
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: are good for Texas. And Tallarico, are you kidding me?
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: Even the softest, squishiest, most establishment toady rhino that you
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: can find, I think of that character type. They got
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: a couple of conservative things in their head, don't they.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: They got a couple of Republican things that they've said
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: and stood for over the years. Go has none of that.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: These people are betraying their own philosophies in order to
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: just stick the shiv in the ribs and display this
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: bad blood. And it is just so sorry, and it's
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: not gonna fly for one second, whether it comes from
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: a senator who I've liked for decades has been or
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: somebody who I just run into on the phone on
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: a given day. Show let me let me tell you
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: my quick journey about covering cornin on my talk show
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: earlier today. I was about to go launch into a
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: whole thing and get into it, and then I was
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: reminded of a video I came across last night featuring
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: a mother and son that did a video a daily
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: cooking show on YouTube and podcast called I Haven't Seen
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Time yet. I have not seen this yet, and I
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: guess I need to.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Coffee time with John and Mama. Now. This is this
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: was a fifty five year old man and his senior mom, Mama,
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: and it was John and Mama, Johnny and Mama, and
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: he would sit at the counter, the kitchen counter, just
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: whipping up good old fashioned Southern treats, you know, fried
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: green tomatoes and grints and all kinds of fun stuff.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: They lived in They live in Tennessee, right, Jellico, Tennessee,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: and they did a daily live stream. Well, this man
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: this week is in the middle of the live stream
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: with his mama, his beloved mama, to just to the
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: left of him, and he looks up suddenly and he's
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: right in the middle of a sentence and he said,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: oh oh, I don't feel so good. And Mark he dies.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: He has a massive heart attack. He leans down over
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: the counter, and the poor mother is screaming and yelling
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: and she's saying, Johnny, Johnny. His eyes roll up, he
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: looks up into the sky and he falls off the chair,
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: and I think he was almost immediately dead. He had
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: a massive heart attack. Now, the family kept that video
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: up for a long time.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: I'm looking I'm looking at this, I'm be rolling it.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Well. I didn't want to play it. I don't want
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: to pay and I don't want to play it on
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: the podcast because it's.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: It's awfully graphic and everybody can.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: For yourself. But let me tell you why I think
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: it's important. If you want to go find it, to
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: find it. Number one. It really showcases this wonderful love
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: between this man and his mother. Family is everything you
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: know and whatever you think, family should come first. And
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Mama and Johnny had this great, great affection for each
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: other and was playful and he kept he would look
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: into the camera and wink and smile and all that,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: and she would say, that's right, Johnny, that's right. Make
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: those fried dream tomatoes. The other thing that I really
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: did like about it. It was horrible to see this
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: man die, but you know, Mark, it was also kind
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: of wonderful. And let me tell you why. It reminds
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: us of how precious life is, how fragile life is,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: how brief life is. Even if we're blessed with eighty
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: eighty five years on this earth, it's not a very
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: long time. Are you right with God? Are you right
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: with the Lord? Are you ready for what's going to
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: happen after we're called home? And I think that's an
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: important takeaway from seeing this cooking influencer's death live on
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: this string.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Here are the first responders coming into try to revive him.
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Hull neighbor, Mackerel, Oh, Mark and the neighbor, the poor neighbor.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: This guy comes over. He's shirtless, he's got a pair
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: of Jim shorts on, he's frantic. He's trying to do CPR.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: He thinks he's broken a rib while he's doing CPR, which,
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: by the way, people say that's actually a good thing.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: If you're doing it and you break a rib when
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: you're trying to save somebody's life, you might be doing
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: it right. You might actually because you've got to go deep,
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: do you. By the way, do you know CPR?
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Mark?
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: I took a course when it was kind of like
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: child CPR when not long after Regina was born, my
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: now thirty five year old, thirty four year old daughter.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: So yeah, and.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Would you know what to do? Would you know what
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: to do? Somebody would?
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: I right now, there you got to clear you got it.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: There was an acron on an acronym. There was some
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: mnemonic device they used, probably not, which is probably why
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: it's a good idea to do the refresher course.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: Everyone. Let's all do a refresher course because that could
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: be the difference because they weren't giving Obviously Mama wasn't
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: in a position to do it. She's a frail, you know,
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: elderly lady. But if somebody had been giving him CPR,
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: who knows. I think it's a there's a lot of
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: good reminders about the sad death of John Davis of
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: coffee time with John and Mama. I don't want to
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: bring everybody down on a Friday. I know we got
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: a lot of other stuff to cover on Monday. And
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but I but I do. I'm uplifted by
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: it because it's life is fresh, it's important. It's the things,
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: like Charles Crowhammer used to say, the things that matter.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: And what matters to me is that you and I
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: have each other with this podcast. And by the way,
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: did you see the numbers, Marcus Brown from our podcast family.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: We're up like ten to twenty percent week to week.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: It keeps going. We got thousands of downloads per episode.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: We got our first sponsor, Monday PhD weight Loss, so
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: we got good things come in our way. And I
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: think people are kind of enjoying this thing.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: Mark if enjoy is the actual verb after I've just
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: kept basically stunned by what you just sent.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: Me to on YouTube.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: But guess what if there's anything that this experience is
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: going to be, and not to get too meta about
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: it and analyze it while it's in progress. We're having
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: a lot of fun here. We're covering a lot of
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: breaking news. Some of it is uplifting, some of it's
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: going to be terrible, some of it is going to
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: be shocking. Some of it is going to be the
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: kind of stuff that just delights us. Some of it
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: is going to be the kind of stuff that repels us.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: It's called life. Sometimes it's called death. Apparently it's called
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: if it's something that people run across, if it's something
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: that people are talking about, if it's something that is
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: making some type of impact, there's a pretty high likelihood
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: we're going to address it, shine some light on it,
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: pay attention to it, and see.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: What people think about it exactly. And that I can
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: gig and I can conclude today's gig with the funniest,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: most prophetic comment on the live chat over on the
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: YouTube channel of the day coming from gmc palette. Forget politics,
