"Calling Balls and Strikes" (Wednesday, February 25, 2026, Hour 3) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, achieved a transformation like no one has ever seen before.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Media Network by Joe Tellas.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Thank you for joining us on this Tedsdy. The day
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: we celebrate God's gifts to you, though they exist every
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: day and they every day, is a celebration of God's
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: gifts to you, your acknowledgment of them, your practice of them,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: so that you're expert at delivering them to a grateful
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: constituency who rewards you justly. And you don't have to
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: worry about the other folks and what they say say
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: about you. And that's the magic of America right there,
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: all the folks who say there is some magic in America,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: the magic in America is your ability to follow your
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: gifts and talents. And that's the state of the Union,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: unless you would rather have the government dictate to you.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: In the response, twelve minutes out of one hundred and
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: seven minutes, so I guess one hundred and nineteen minutes
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: of total speechification there. Abigail Spanberger, the governor of Virginia, said,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: here's the truth.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: Over the last year, through doze, mass firings and the
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: appointment of deeply unserious people to our nation's most serious positions.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Our president has endangered the long and storied history of
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: the United States of America. Being a force.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: For good, a force for government is what she meant.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: And so you hear the difference right there. Is it
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: about you or about them? That's the existential question. Is
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: it about you or is it about them? And we
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: talk about this sometimes people say your show is weird,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: your show is different, your show isn't like all the
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: other ones or whatever. It's because I don't care about them.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: I care about you and the things that take you
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: away or keep you from achieving the things that God's
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: gifts have endowed upon you. Angers me, frustrates me. And
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: we try to drag it out into the sunlight. And
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: we appreciate you being part of it and your contributions
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: to it as well, because it doesn't work unless we're
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: all doing it together, unless we're all rowing together and
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: not in some sort of weird barnyard Napoleon the Pig
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: kind of way, because we are all equal, not some
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: are more equal than others. Our first things on this
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: post State of the Union address, Tedsdy begin with the
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: State of the Union address and more importantly, the fact
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: that the National Press Club decided to host, showing their independence,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: a group of lawmakers who decided they didn't want to
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: be at the State of the Union address they'd rather
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: go to a cocktail party at the National Press Club
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: hosted by Jacob Frye and Brandon Johnson, the mayors of
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Minneapolis and Chicago, respectively, complaining we'll get into this a
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: little bit. In a segment or so about the immigration
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: and customs enforcement, President Trump said, we're not going back.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: That was his signal at the State of the Union
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: address last night. Now he's set to travel for our
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: friends down in Beaumont Taxes. They'll be in Corpus Christi,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: that wonderful little Gulf of America town, coming up later
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: this week. Not much of this week left, but at
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: some point he'll be there to hold a rally just
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: before the state's Republican primaries. A federal court in Washington,
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: d c. Yesterday rejected a request from immigrant rights groups
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: to temporarily block the IRS from sharing taxpayer data that
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: could make it easier to identify and deport people who
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: aren't supposed to be taxpayers. The Central Intelligence Agency took
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: to x to see if they could find some of
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: the human intel as they call it in the spycraft,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: informants in Iran and those that they could use and
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: get information from. They posted the message as they do
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: with many recruitment pitches in Farsie, care in Russian and Mandarin,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: and asked for anyone who would be interested to call
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: the CIA and they're ready to believe you. And on
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: the fourth anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Vladimir
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Zelenski of Ukraine took to state run television to accuse
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, of having already started World
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: War three. Those are some of our first things this
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: morning on the Tonk Media Network. Four three four eight
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: A two four two one seven is how you get
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: to us and you can share how these stories are
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: impacting you. Is it important that the National Press Club
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: pretend to be at least semi nonpartisan or just throwing
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: down with a room full of Democrats? Just kap Joe.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: So one of the text messages said about it.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co host of Foster and
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: Friends and former Virginia Tech football coach. When I brought

  Speaker 1: Yes?

  Speaker 6: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch and nitric

• 10:24
  Speaker 12: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 10:27
  Speaker 12: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 10:32
  Speaker 12: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop

• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Joe Thomas in the Morning Trivia today. But what else
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: is on your mind? Did you watch the State of
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the Union address last night? No, I know what.
• 15:35
  Speaker 25: It's like for me.
• 15:37
  Speaker 24: Gas prices are down, more American jobs in America, better
• 15:43
  Speaker 24: at sports, so I already know what I'm seeing.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: So, but I was.
• 15:50
  Speaker 24: You were talking to the guy from the Ko Institute.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah about our artificial intelligence.
• 15:57
  Speaker 24: Yeah yeah, just reminded me that you can have stupid
• 16:02
  Speaker 24: people doing dumb signs on a smartphone. It's like a
• 16:07
  Speaker 24: walking into it. You tell equot while watching the video
• 16:11
  Speaker 24: on face plan, I mean Facebook.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: That's philosophy one oh one, right there. Yes, you can
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: have just because you're a dumb person doing dumb things.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Just because you're doing it on a smartphone doesn't make
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: it smart.
• 16:26
  Speaker 19: Uh.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's true. And and it's like that famous other
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: Reagan quote. It's not that they're ignorant, it's just that
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: they know so much that isn't true. And and that's
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: really the issue. The existential point of it. Uh, if
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: you read Kevin's column at CATO, is that you know,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: we need to break up AI. So it's so we
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: don't have you, you know, like we have big Agra,
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: and we have big Pharma, and we have big banking. Uh,
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: and we have all these big insurance, big medicine. You know,
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: you don't want big AI. You want fred agmented, small,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: isolated AI, little people doing things, you know, with computers
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: being able to say, hey, we can search this. Because
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: if it becomes big and centralized, it's going to be
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: just as bad as all these other other industries are
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: when they get big and centralized.
• 17:19
  Speaker 24: It's like, well, we can't forget the basics and the
• 17:25
  Speaker 24: foundation of stuff. Growing up, I learned how to deposit
• 17:30
  Speaker 24: in usaving's account, create a Christmas trust fund, how to
• 17:36
  Speaker 24: reconcile my faink statements to my deposits, lips, et cetera.
• 17:44
  Speaker 24: Then I learned double entry book keeping, not the funness
• 17:48
  Speaker 24: of things. But then I learned computers and how to
• 17:53
  Speaker 24: use a program that used the double entry book keeping.
• 17:58
  Speaker 24: There was a progress, and it wasn't I'm going from
• 18:03
  Speaker 24: being born to doing the double entry book keeping on
• 18:06
  Speaker 24: the computer since months after my birth. It was a
• 18:11
  Speaker 24: gradual progression.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: In oh, yeah, well that's life.
• 18:14
  Speaker 26: Face sake.
• 18:16
  Speaker 24: Yeah. But I had the tools, the basic found the
• 18:21
  Speaker 24: mental tools, so I knew how to proceed with the
• 18:25
  Speaker 24: more advanced toes that would help make life easier.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: Well, and that's the keyword tool right there. And I
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: was talking about this, I said, you know, I imagine
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: the auto mechanics the first time somebody from snap On
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: came up, drove up to their mechanics shop with ratcheting wrenches.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: What do we need that for. I've got all the
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: wrenches I need in my toolbox. I don't need something
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: to ratchet around. That's gonna make it too easy. That's
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: that's ridiculous. I lose the feel for the wrench and
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: that kind of thing. We always push back against technology
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: for the familiar. I look around me. I have friends,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: dear friends that tease me, and they call me a
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: luddite and everything. And I look around. I've got two
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: smartphones going right now. I've got a laptop, I've got VPN,
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: I've got an MP three generator. I've got a digital
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: and coder sending everything today. I've got more technology around here,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: and I'm not even using half of it. I've got
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: a video camera here and a second computer ready to
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: do live to YouTube stuff.
• 19:31
  Speaker 18: You know.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: So I've got plenty of technology. It's how you approach it.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: It's a tool. It's a tool, just like the ratcheting
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: wrench was to the mechanic back in whenever it was Hey,
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: somebody get Eddie and Scottsville to figure out when the
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: first ratcheting wrench was invented. But you know, and it's
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: just AI. I guess as your point at the start
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: of it was, it's about us. If we're immoral people,
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: we're going to do moral things with AI. And that's
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: the part that nobody is, certainly not these elected officials
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: wants to talk about.
• 20:08
  Speaker 24: Yeah, well I'm afred, I got go now, so do
• 20:12
  Speaker 24: we forgot you? I forgot one saying Monday she wished
• 20:17
  Speaker 24: you a happy week full of unicorns and rainbows was
• 20:21
  Speaker 24: a good sprinkling of Petsy dust.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Thank you. He must be running for office in Central
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: Virginia because that's usually what they promised there. Thank you.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Mike Terry wrote in in Portland listening to Us on
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: Freedom nine seventy there these people are absolute hypocrites. All
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: they did during the Biden administration was go after farmers,
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: overregulate them, and try to knock them out, attacking America's
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: food source for their own socialist control. Referring to a
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: statement that Abigail Spanberger made in her very short address
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: out all the things that the president supposedly hasn't done
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: to make life more affordable. Do we have her clip there?
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: I don't want to overdo the abspan stuff high.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: In housing, healthcare, energy, and childcare. And I know these
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: same conversations are being had all across this.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: Country because my political party caused it. Terry, You're absolutely
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: right there, Eddie and Scottsville says June sixteenth, eighteen eighty three,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: was when the ratcheting wrench was involved. Well, I know
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: there must have been some mechanics somewhere saying, oh, I
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: can't feel the nut when I'm putting torque on it.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: I don't want a ratcheting wrench that we always do
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: we always do this, and then Terry goes on to
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: say they did the same thing with the medical industry.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: My dad practiced since the seventies and had to shut
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: down his clinic from over regulation.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent
• 22:04

  Speaker 27: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 27: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:17
  Speaker 27: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:21
  Speaker 27: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
• 23:23
  Speaker 27: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
• 23:26
  Speaker 27: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
• 23:29
  Speaker 27: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
• 23:31
  Speaker 27: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
• 23:35
  Speaker 27: the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
• 23:38
  Speaker 27: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
• 23:41
  Speaker 27: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
• 23:44
  Speaker 27: your fuel choices around, say every third tank full, you
• 23:47
  Speaker 27: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
• 23:50
  Speaker 27: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
• 23:53
  Speaker 27: Just don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them

  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas, yes,
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 24:23

  Speaker 2: Quickly on a need to know basis because you need
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: to know the first thing today.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, as it is time for our sports director
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: Mac McDonald to join us to chronicle all the things
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: that have been going on in the world of sports,
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: as Wizard White used to say on the field on
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: the pages of the newspaper, where we chronicle the the
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: accomplishments of man rather than his misdeeds. And that's not
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: so much the case anymore. It was worse during the
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: steroid era. But a friend of mine actually brought up
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: the steroid era now that we learn more and more
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: about the funny phony Boloney votes in Atlanta and Fulton
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: County is like, can we give Barry bonds asterisk to
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Senators Warnock and awsome off from Georgia. I don't know.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: I don't know if Barry is still using that that
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: asterisk anymore. But how are you doing this morning, Matt.
• 29:08
  Speaker 25: I'm doing I'm doing good. It's funny because I was
• 29:11
  Speaker 25: I was gonna get this in this week spring training.
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 29:15
  Speaker 25: It was experimenting with the ABS system sponsored by T Mobile,
• 29:18
  Speaker 25: of course, and yesterday anti lock breaks. Yeah, yeah, the
• 29:24
  Speaker 25: four letter h.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: The four letter had a.
• 29:29
  Speaker 25: A split and film of an umpire who missed like
• 29:34
  Speaker 25: six out of eight pitches, and everybody kept protesting. They
• 29:38
  Speaker 25: tapped their helmet, and the batter was protesting, the catcher
• 29:41
  Speaker 25: was protesting. And the next inning the catcher protested, and
• 29:45
  Speaker 25: it was a Pirate's Red Sox game. And it is
• 29:47
  Speaker 25: so it's just so funny because the batters and the
• 29:51
  Speaker 25: catcher they knew if it was a striker or a
• 29:53
  Speaker 25: ball before the umpire did. And it was because he
• 29:56
  Speaker 25: got everyone wrong. You know, it's really gonna be an
• 30:00
  Speaker 25: I hope we just don't get caught up, and because
• 30:02
  Speaker 25: games will last six.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: Here's my problem with this mac though. It's a two
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: dimensional depiction of a three dimensional event. And I'm I
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: am not you know, Bill Nye, the science guy, but
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: you know, I just don't see how you get a
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: two dimensional depiction of what's happening in a three dimensional world.
• 30:22
  Speaker 25: Look you either, okay, replays and and things in the NFL,
• 30:26
  Speaker 25: and and looking at lines and maybe did he have
• 30:29
  Speaker 25: one foot in two feet in way? Well I get
• 30:32
  Speaker 25: I get some of this, but we in baseball. It's
• 30:36
  Speaker 25: still it's a human element game.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Leave it alone.
• 30:40
  Speaker 25: You know, if you're looking at a home run and
• 30:42
  Speaker 25: if you're looking at it, hit the foul pole or not.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 30:45
  Speaker 25: Anyway, that's a discussion for another day. I love when
• 30:48
  Speaker 25: coaches who I am not really fond of in an
• 30:52
  Speaker 25: early I love it when Will Wade last night got
• 30:56
  Speaker 25: his brains beat in by Virginia and I'll take.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: Oh will North Carolina coach.
• 31:02
  Speaker 25: Yes, well, yeah, he Frenzy State and he has been.
• 31:07
  Speaker 25: I mean he thinks, you know, his programs the best
• 31:10
  Speaker 25: when they win. He rips him when they lose. There's
• 31:12
  Speaker 25: no like middle of the road. If you listen to
• 31:14
  Speaker 25: Ryan Odum or other coaches around the country really who
• 31:17
  Speaker 25: were just very solid John Shire, Uh, you know these guys,
• 31:21
  Speaker 25: they're just they're you know, they're they're settled, they're on point.
• 31:25
  Speaker 25: They you know, they just kind of but not not
• 31:28
  Speaker 25: Will Wade. Well, Will Wade last night said that UVA
• 31:32
  Speaker 25: was one of the best teams in the world, and
• 31:34
  Speaker 25: so after the Cavaliers have won nine straight, Will Wade
• 31:39
  Speaker 25: told the iPads, this is one.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Of the best defensive teams in the country, the third
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: best offensive rebounding team in the country. This is a really,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: really good team. They steam rolled us.
• 31:49
  Speaker 18: They're better than we are.
• 31:50
  Speaker 26: If we played them ten times.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure we could beat them. You know maybe
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: once you know, like they're they're just flat better than us.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: We can sit here in pontificate about anything else you want, rinters,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: layups and this and that, and you know, like they're
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: flat better nus, and they're better coach. To me, Odum
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: has done a much better job than I have. They're
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: better nuts from the bench to their team there, they're
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: better nuts.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: He's very flippant.
• 32:13
  Speaker 25: I think he says things he really doesn't mean, but
• 32:16
  Speaker 25: he wants he thinks they're the right things to say.
• 32:18
  Speaker 25: Maybe I'm looking too deep into this. He had the rant,
• 32:21
  Speaker 25: you know, a month ago. But I'm just not a
• 32:24
  Speaker 25: Will Wade fan, so I just wanted to go on
• 32:26
  Speaker 25: record and State will probably get into the tournament and
• 32:29
  Speaker 25: we'll see what happens anyway, Duke Duke wins last night
• 32:32
  Speaker 25: one hundred fifty six.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: On the lakes. Well they don't they meet you play Saturday,

• 33:01
  Speaker 25: Darren Aquinoban were picked up for speeding and reckless driving.

• 33:11
  Speaker 25: driving issues. And Kirby smart. Of course, he's just told

• 33:30
  Speaker 25: speaking of racing and running into each other, I just
• 33:34
  Speaker 25: want to circle back to make sure I get because
• 33:37

• 33:42
  Speaker 3: Okay, he was shot out of a camp.
• 33:44
  Speaker 25: What he did Sunday, I don't want it to be
• 33:46
  Speaker 25: overlooked Lap two forty four restart during Sunday's race in Atlanta,
• 33:51
  Speaker 25: he went from twentieth to third in three laps. Now,
• 33:55
  Speaker 25: Reddix still managed to have a fast car. His right
• 33:58
  Speaker 25: front fender was missing from damnage. Now, if that this
• 34:02
  Speaker 25: is how NASCAR gets it right, they have wonderful production,
• 34:06
  Speaker 25: great announcers, wonderful analysts and people in the pits and

  Speaker 3: You know, boys will be boys and Yeah, I apologize
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: that this is languished so long because As soon as
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: I saw it, I said, well, mine's bigger than his.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: And oh no, I'm talking about Gavin Newsom and his
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: statements over the weekend to a bunch of black community
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: leaders that he was just like them with a low
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: SAT score. And I said, wow, mine's bigger than his.
• 44:48
  Speaker 33: You know, I'm not trying to impress you. I'm just
• 44:51
  Speaker 33: trying to impress upon you. I'm like you, I'm no
• 44:55
  Speaker 33: better than you. You know, I'm a nine to sixty
• 44:59
  Speaker 33: SAT guy, and you know, and I'm not trying to
• 45:04
  Speaker 33: offend anyone, you know, trying to act all there if
• 45:06
  Speaker 33: you got nine forty.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: So so is that a part? Is that go into
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: the pantheon of Joe Biden saying poor kids are just
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: as smart as white kids?
• 45:21
  Speaker 26: Is that?
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: Does that fit into the same narrative? Is that? And
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: there's more to his statement? And I'm going to get
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: serious and I'm going to offer Gavin Newsom, even at
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: his age, some help and some help that has been
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: beneficial to me, though not suffering dyslexia. Some say, you know,
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: politically I dyslexic because I see public policy backwards. But
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: that's just what they say about conservatives. But I had
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: a Hey, I'm a ten, I'm a ten sixty, Gavin,
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: And I'm so dumb that I took the SAT twice
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: and got the exact same score. Both times. I just
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: flipped them, so I got a five forty math five
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: twenty English or whatever it was called back in the day.
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: And then the second time I took it, the five
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: forty and the five twenty were flipped, so I did
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: exactly the same I just reversed the results. That's how
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: unbright I am about it. And you had to pay
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: to do it. I don't know. Doctor Clark is on
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: the line, so as Gavin do some statements in the
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: on the same par as poor kids are just as
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: smart as white kids.
• 46:44
  Speaker 18: Maybe worse. The only thing he was the Hillary Clinton.
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: Accent, the fake yo, brother, yo, brother, I just got
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: a nine to sixty, So you know, roll up somewhere else.
• 47:00
  Speaker 18: I have come so far with so little SAT.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: Oh so seriously, well, thank you for the call. What
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: brings you to the phone this morning?
• 47:13
  Speaker 18: Well, I really like the idea of asterisks for politicians,
• 47:19
  Speaker 18: especially after the night the lights went out in Georgia.
• 47:22
  Speaker 18: I don't want to be down at the bottom of
• 47:23
  Speaker 18: the page and you know, Auto pannelt to get an asterisk,
• 47:27
  Speaker 18: just as well as Osoft and Warnock. Now I've been
• 47:33
  Speaker 18: thinking about your constitution being temporarily suspended, Joe.
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: That's what they want to do in Virginia, they say,
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: you know, even the TV ad say, we we just
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: want to temporarily suspend the constitution so we can be
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: trump about that.
• 47:48
  Speaker 18: Okay, if you can temporarily suspend the constitution, it's not
• 47:54
  Speaker 18: a constitution anymore.
• 47:57
  Speaker 20: Fair.
• 47:58
  Speaker 18: I remember when Calvin and Hobbes was in the paper
• 48:05
  Speaker 18: and they would play Calvin ball.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: It's the Calvin.
• 48:15
  Speaker 18: Calvin Ball was a game where Calvin made the rules
• 48:19
  Speaker 18: up as they went along. If they can temporarily suspend
• 48:24
  Speaker 18: your constitutions though they're playing Calvin ball.
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: That is such a great analogy. That is that is
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: right in there with John Locke, because man, you know,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: and I've studied some of the philosophy of both Calvin
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: and Hobbes just to see if I could draw metaphor
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: from it. But man, that is such a great point.
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: It is political Calvin ball, you know. And this this
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: this event at the National Press Club with to take
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: Jake Fry and Mayor Johnson from Chicago whining and complaining
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: about ice enforcing law. And these are the lawmakers. Why
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: don't you change the law? You know, you know, go
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: up there and legislate the law. Just don't do Calvin
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: and say, oh, well except on Tuesday when the sun
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: is in the sky over there and then the run counts.
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: That's what. It's exactly what they're doing.
• 49:21
  Speaker 18: Well, I'm lack the skills, but somebody that had the skills,
• 49:26
  Speaker 18: I'm quite sure could look at the laws that are
• 49:29
  Speaker 18: being enforced and find out which politicians signed off on them.
• 49:35
  Speaker 18: That'd be interesting, wouldn't it. Oh yeah, I wonder if
• 49:40
  Speaker 18: they're fussing about the enforcements of laws that they themselves passed.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: Many of them without question. I mean, in Virginia, this
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: redistricting temporary uh suspension of the constitutional Amendment. I think
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: it's it's a majority of the General Assembly is still
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: there from just four years ago when they voted the
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: thing in unanimously. They all voted for this, and they
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: voted for it in twenty twenty one. It's not like
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: they couldn't conceive of Donald Trump. They had already gone
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: through the Trump administration. So what was your thought that
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: Trump was never going to come back. Maybe that was
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: the messaging. It was like, don't worry about it. Trump's
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: never coming back. We finished him for good. Oops.
• 50:29
  Speaker 18: Yeah, well that was the plan. The people that were
• 50:32
  Speaker 18: worried about our democracy where the people get to choose,
• 50:35
  Speaker 18: didn't want him to.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: Be a choice.
• 50:38
  Speaker 18: So there. Hey, one last thought, just get a mental
• 50:44
  Speaker 18: image of the people that were selecting their districts, or
• 50:50
  Speaker 18: they're picking their voters, bickering in a back room over.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: Who got what?
• 50:58
  Speaker 18: Hey, whoa, whoa?
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: You can't have that.
• 51:00
  Speaker 18: I need that. I would have liked to have seen
• 51:04
  Speaker 18: how that went.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: It's a true you know, I don't want to I
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: don't want Augusta County they vote read give me, give
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: me Harrisonburg and Charlottesville. And you know, I see what
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: you're saying. No, it's the politicians.
• 51:17
  Speaker 20: Than you will.
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: I want that one. Yeah, well that's how you get
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: these Have you seen the one district that looks like
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: a scorpion?
• 51:25
  Speaker 22: Oh?
• 51:26
  Speaker 18: Yeah, they've they've outdone themselves there.
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and the stinger is Alexandria. By the way, uh
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: for those of wonder the torture. But anyway, doctor Clark,
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: the last question, it sounds like you have one last question.
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: Real quick, I.
• 51:39
  Speaker 18: Say, school districts and political districts. Boy, those are some
• 51:43
  Speaker 18: tortuous lines.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: Now we should just draw circles around them. But that's me,
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: thank you. That's my ten sixty SAT score. Thank you, sir.
• 51:52
  Speaker 18: He's a recognizable geometric figure.
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: It's right. It's like, hey, it's a constellation. Real quick.
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: I'll have to address this at the top of the
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: next hour as well. But Gavin Newsom did explain a
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: little bit of why he he has the the nine
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: to sixty s a T score. When you're scaring, what's
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: what's that in there? I want the Gavin Newsom clip?
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: Can you play it that?
• 52:22
  Speaker 26: Right?
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: My dyslextion.
• 52:24
  Speaker 33: I haven't overcome dyslexi.
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: I'm living with it, dyslexia. There is a way, and
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: I'm being serious here, And there's a there's a group
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: that was started by a doctor, an ophtholeomist optholeomy. There's
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: my ten optometrist who was trying to figure out the
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: physical manifestation of dyslexi and realized it wasn't physical. You know,
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: It's true.
• 52:52
  Speaker 17: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
• 52:55
  Speaker 17: to think about what matters most when it comes to
• 52:57
  Speaker 17: our spending our healthcare. This is why if so many
• 53:00
  Speaker 17: people are joining meta share right now, metas Share is
• 53:04
  Speaker 17: a trusted way to save up to fifty percent on
• 53:07
  Speaker 17: your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred thousand people
• 53:10
  Speaker 17: have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious why too,
• 53:13
  Speaker 17: especially now during this challenging season with health care costs
• 53:17
