Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: I'd like to be the first today to congratulate you,
- 0:06Speaker 1: because I bet you nobody has congratulated you yet. For
- 0:09Speaker 1: making it to Friday. I mean, I think it's Friday.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Let me checking, Yep, Friday. That's the first piece of
- 0:14Speaker 1: good news. The second thing is, we've got all kinds
- 0:16Speaker 1: of things to talk about today. I have all kinds
- 0:18Speaker 1: of unsolicited life advice to dish out to you, all
- 0:21Speaker 1: taken from the news, of course, which is what I
- 0:23Speaker 1: like to do. There's a lot of stuff going on here.
- 0:25Speaker 1: First piece is entertaining and interesting to me. Trump going
- 0:29Speaker 1: on patrol. He's going on patrol with the troops. He's
- 0:33Speaker 1: gonna bust up crime. He's gonna arrest criminals himself. Okay,
- 0:36Speaker 1: that didn't happen. That was a little over hyped. We
- 0:38Speaker 1: were a little over sold on that. But he did
- 0:41Speaker 1: get out to the streets and he worked well, not
- 0:43Speaker 1: worked with He visited and provided some snacks to the
- 0:48Speaker 1: National Guard troops in Washington, d C. Last night. And
- 0:53Speaker 1: to me, this exemplifies exactly why people don't understand what
- 0:56Speaker 1: he's all about, because it's getting mocked left and right right,
- 0:59Speaker 1: mostly from the left. Because if people don't understand what
- 1:02Speaker 1: leadership is. And I'm not endorsing anybody. I'm not saying
- 1:05Speaker 1: I'm just saying, the people who don't understand how effective
- 1:09Speaker 1: a simple act like that is are the ones mocking
- 1:11Speaker 1: it today. Watch out for them. The exact opposite Gavin
- 1:16Speaker 1: Newsom very interesting choice of words is he is all
- 1:19Speaker 1: upset about the jerry mandering thing going on, you know,
- 1:22Speaker 1: the issue in Texas and the Texas House and all
- 1:24Speaker 1: that vote. Well, he's doing the same thing in California. Unfortunately,
- 1:27Speaker 1: what he's saying is they're going to fight fire with fire.
- 1:32Speaker 1: I don't think the guy who can't put out a
- 1:34Speaker 1: fire should be using those words anyway. Also talk about
- 1:37Speaker 1: an issue that happened in the Orlando, Florida. They painted
- 1:40Speaker 1: over disantist did his direct order. They painted over the
- 1:43Speaker 1: Pride crosswalk in Orlando outside the Pulse nightclub. Got some
- 1:47Speaker 1: thoughts on this to share with you. Maybe you agree,
- 1:49Speaker 1: maybe you don't, And we'll wrap it up today. We'll
- 1:52Speaker 1: send you into the weekend. But getting a check on
- 1:54Speaker 1: that cracker barrel stock, how's that looking? Wow? Business First,
- 2:00Speaker 1: before we get to that stuff, thanks for finding the
- 2:02Speaker 1: Wicked Radio live stream. This is all part. This is
- 2:05Speaker 1: where I get all the information for Wicked Wisdom with
- 2:07Speaker 1: Bill Adams. That's right right, dish out what I think
- 2:09Speaker 1: is going on on all these social media platforms. Facebook, YouTube,
- 2:14Speaker 1: it's always on replay right here in the audio podcast
- 2:16Speaker 1: as well. But I want to get right to it,
- 2:18Speaker 1: so let's do it. Trump on Patrol. I know it
- 2:20Speaker 1: was overhyped. This is how it was sold to us
- 2:23Speaker 1: that this is. This is the news media and even
- 2:25Speaker 1: the ones that you like. Trump's going out with the troops.
- 2:28Speaker 1: Trump's gonna bust up crime. Trump's going out there, He's
- 2:30Speaker 1: gonna get He's gonna hit the streets. He hit the streets,
- 2:34Speaker 1: not exactly putting people in cuffs, but it's no less
- 2:38Speaker 1: important because what he did last night is a really
- 2:42Speaker 1: good example of they call it in the in the
- 2:45Speaker 1: business books and the leadership books, you know, the personal
- 2:47Speaker 1: empowerment stuff or the business environment servant leadership, and that's
- 2:52Speaker 1: the term they've coined for it. But it's very, very effective.
- 2:57Speaker 1: This is why the people you run into today or
- 2:58Speaker 1: you see on TV or on social media that are
- 3:01Speaker 1: mocking this, they don't really get how effective this is.
- 3:04Speaker 1: This is how it all started off. He walked down
- 3:06Speaker 1: the steps and he visited the troops. This is how
- 3:08Speaker 1: he greeted a healthy, attractive looking So he's walking around
- 3:15Speaker 1: in a wireless mic like he's a you know, an
- 3:16Speaker 1: MC at a WENG or something, which is great because
- 3:20Speaker 1: that's where he's really comfortable, is just talking to people.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Something more important than that, though, and this is the
- 3:25Speaker 1: part that's getting mocked by the people that don't understand
- 3:28Speaker 1: how this servant leadership term, why this concept actually works.
- 3:34Speaker 1: This is the part where he's given him some snacks.
- 3:38Speaker 1: In fact, I think you got to hear and see
- 3:39Speaker 1: here in the clip that he gave him a choice
- 3:41Speaker 1: whether they wanted to do burgers or pizza. Seems like
- 3:45Speaker 1: a silly thing, and it actually matters. This is when
- 3:47Speaker 1: one of the news networks actually cut into a line.
- 3:49Speaker 1: I think he brought some food for it, cooked by
- 3:51Speaker 1: the White House, and we have pizza that I said,
- 3:55Speaker 1: don't do it in the White House because we went
- 3:56Speaker 1: to a place that makes the best bats. So we'll
- 3:59Speaker 1: con see, uh, but we have a lot of it.
- 4:01Speaker 1: So we're gonna have some fun. We'll eat and they'll
- 4:03Speaker 1: eat with you, and we're gonna have a little fun.
- 4:05Speaker 1: We're gonna celebrate, but then we're gonna get back to
- 4:07Speaker 1: work and.
- 4:08Speaker 2: We're gonna take care of these criminals.
- 4:09Speaker 1: We're gonna put them.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Where they have to be.
- 4:11Speaker 1: We're gonna you're gonna say, don't don't play around with us,
- 4:14Speaker 1: don't play around with us.
- 4:16Speaker 3: So let's the.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Funny part of me. Is reminded me. And if you're
- 4:19Speaker 1: a parent whoever has to go through this, if you've
- 4:21Speaker 1: ever had kids that play sports or do some kind
- 4:23Speaker 1: of group activity, exactly what this reminds you of. They
- 4:26Speaker 1: go around in a rotation and you have to sign
- 4:28Speaker 1: up as your thing where there it's your turn to
- 4:30Speaker 1: be the den mom or the den dad. It's like, okay,
- 4:33Speaker 1: it's my turn to provide the snacks. That's what I
- 4:36Speaker 1: keep thinking of. It was it was Trump's turn to
- 4:39Speaker 1: provide the snaxt to the troops last night, like a
- 4:41Speaker 1: den dad. But again, the people that don't get why
- 4:44Speaker 1: this is so important are missing a very important concept.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Oh and they'll mock him, right, Oh, I delivered pizza
- 4:52Speaker 1: and he calls that supporting the supporting the feds. Oh,
- 4:56Speaker 1: let me tell you something. Every single one of those people,
- 4:59Speaker 1: of those you know, National Guard members DC police members,
- 5:04Speaker 1: people that were there in the street, even staffers, other
- 5:06Speaker 1: people that were in the support. Every one of them
- 5:08Speaker 1: will remember that story that he was actually there. No,
- 5:11Speaker 1: he's not getting into the street. No, he's not busting
- 5:13Speaker 1: criminals himself. No, but he was there in person, with
- 5:16Speaker 1: some face to FaceTime, very close actually to a lot
- 5:20Speaker 1: of the people on the street. That's what matters, and
- 5:22Speaker 1: that's what makes the biggest impact. Here's the lesson. People
- 5:26Speaker 1: mocking this today have no concept of how that works
- 5:29Speaker 1: none whatsoever. By the way, there's crime stats. You might
- 5:33Speaker 1: want to look into those too, if you want to
- 5:35Speaker 1: throw some stats back and people who said that was
- 5:37Speaker 1: a dumb idea, that's not going to be effective. He's
- 5:39Speaker 1: not going to be taking over Washington, DC. Isn't going
- 5:42Speaker 1: to crack down on crime. You might want to check
- 5:45Speaker 1: some of the stats. Because they've had close to one
- 5:47Speaker 1: thousand the rests and there haven't been any homicides since
- 5:50Speaker 1: they did as of this recording. Might want to check
- 5:53Speaker 1: on that one. So watch out for the people mocking
- 5:56Speaker 1: that today because they probably have no idea what leadership
- 5:59Speaker 1: is all about. Speaking of I know this is politics,
- 6:03Speaker 1: but really it's the takeaway that we can learn from this.
- 6:07Speaker 1: The exact opposite of knowing how to reach people was
- 6:11Speaker 1: shown last night by Gavin Newsom. Now here's the background
- 6:13Speaker 1: of the story. He's all upset. The Democrats are all
- 6:15Speaker 1: upset because the Republicans are doing the jerrymandering thing that
- 6:18Speaker 1: the Democrats had started. It's going to Texas and then
- 6:21Speaker 1: they're redistricting to make it easier to get more house
- 6:25Speaker 1: seats on their side. Basically is what it is. And
- 6:27Speaker 1: then some other states are doing it too. First takeaway is,
- 6:30Speaker 1: you know it's something that's effective when the political opposition,
- 6:35Speaker 1: and this works either way, is really really upset about
- 6:39Speaker 1: it and is like all up in arms about it.
- 6:41Speaker 1: So California wants to do the same thing, so they'll
- 6:44Speaker 1: add more Democrat house seats whatever. It's that stupid political game,
- 6:47Speaker 1: that's what they're doing, right. Well, Gavin Newsom signed some
- 6:51Speaker 1: legislation to do exactly that in California, but they followed
- 6:54Speaker 1: that up with a video with a very unfortunate choice
- 6:57Speaker 1: of words. Now, if you're the guy who outside of
- 7:01Speaker 1: the state of California, your whole brand, all most normal
- 7:04Speaker 1: people know about Gavin Newsom is he did an awful
- 7:08Speaker 1: job fighting the California fires, the Malibu and Pacific Palistades fires. Right, so,
- 7:13Speaker 1: if you're a guy that is known not to be
- 7:16Speaker 1: able to put out fires, would you really say you're
- 7:20Speaker 1: going to fight fire with fire? Here's Gavin, listen to
- 7:23Speaker 1: two things at these.
- 7:24Speaker 3: This is radical rigging of a midterm election, radical rigging
- 7:32Speaker 3: of an election, destroying, vandalizing this democracy, the rule of law.
- 7:38Speaker 3: So I'm sorry. I know some people's sensibilities. I respect
- 7:42Speaker 3: and appreciate that, but right now, with all due respect,
- 7:46Speaker 3: we're walking down a damn different path. We're fighting fire
- 7:50Speaker 3: with fire and with a punch these mouth.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Oh it was that too. Notice that's all happening now.
- 7:58Speaker 1: The politicians are really comfortable with what. We gotta punch him.
- 8:01Speaker 1: We gotta go after him, We gotta go after him hard,
- 8:02Speaker 1: gotta hit him hard, gotta destroy him. All the verbiage,
- 8:04Speaker 1: all the all the you hear it all the time. Now,
- 8:07Speaker 1: it's like, you know, if political violence does break out,
- 8:11Speaker 1: I blame the people talking about it. I forgot. He
- 8:13Speaker 1: talked about that as well too, not only fighting fire
- 8:16Speaker 1: with fire a very poor choice of words, He actually
- 8:19Speaker 1: talked about vandalism. He described it as political vandalism. The
- 8:24Speaker 1: guy whose cities include San Francisco, Oakland, and LA's talking
- 8:27Speaker 1: about vandalism. Okay, if you're if you're known as the
- 8:32Speaker 1: guy that couldn't fight fires with water, should you really
- 8:37Speaker 1: use a term like fight fire with fire? What an awful,
- 8:41Speaker 1: awful communicator that guy is. I mean, I mean, like
- 8:44Speaker 1: really bad and think of it too. So this is
- 8:46Speaker 1: Gavin I think that was from his the Gavin Newsom podcast.
- 8:48Speaker 1: I don't know what he does. It was right around
- 8:50Speaker 1: the time they signed that legislation. Now think about it. Now,
- 8:53Speaker 1: he has camera people, he's got a producer, he's got
- 8:56Speaker 1: an editor. He just sits there and talks. He's got
- 8:58Speaker 1: somebody doing all of this. He thought about it, came
- 9:00Speaker 1: up with the segment throughout all those steps, all of them,
- 9:04Speaker 1: and nobody got to them and said, hey, Gov, let's
- 9:08Speaker 1: just recut that part because the part where you talk
- 9:10Speaker 1: about fighting fire with fire, with the jerrymandering, it's not
- 9:13Speaker 1: gonna go over well, that's gonna no, that's gonna ricochet.
- 9:16Speaker 1: That's not a good deal. There's nobody in this guy's ear,
- 9:19Speaker 1: nobody is talking about it anyway. Doesn't get it, just
- 9:25Speaker 1: doesn't get it. All right, this is something that happened yesterday,
- 9:30Speaker 1: the reaction to this, and it was going back to
- 9:32Speaker 1: Florida here for a second in Orlando some thoughts about
- 9:35Speaker 1: this and really with the reaction so far from the politicians.
- 9:39Speaker 1: So we got to go to Orlando. No. Tragically many
- 9:41Speaker 1: years ago, Polly, we're coming up on a lot of
- 9:43Speaker 1: years ago. It was the Pulse nightclub shooting. It's the
- 9:46Speaker 1: gay nightclub in downtown Orlando, and now I think it's
- 9:49Speaker 1: a permanent memorial that's there well as it's happening in
- 9:53Speaker 1: many cities throughout the country. The crosswalk that I guess
- 9:56Speaker 1: leads to that's not the biggest intersection of the world,
- 9:59Speaker 1: but the crosswalk that leads to the nightclub in that
- 10:01Speaker 1: area was actually painted over and like decorated with the
- 10:05Speaker 1: Pride colors, you know, leading to the thing or whatever,
- 10:08Speaker 1: signed off by Governor Ron De Santis. He painted over that.
- 10:14Speaker 1: And they're all upset, the community leaders, the LGBT community
- 10:18Speaker 1: is all upset about this whole thing, and they did
- 10:20Speaker 1: a lot of videos and they're demanding to fight this
- 10:22Speaker 1: and all this other stuff. Here's here's one reaction from
- 10:27Speaker 1: it yesterday early yesterday when they discovered that this has happened.
- 10:30Speaker 1: Here's one of the elected representatives expressing his outrage and
- 10:33Speaker 1: what happened in Orlando.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Hi, everyone, this is State Senator Carlos Giermo Smith. I
- 10:37Speaker 4: am outside the Pulse Nightclub Interim Memorial and we've just
- 10:42Speaker 4: discovered that the Florida Department of Transportation in the middle
- 10:45Speaker 4: of the night ripped the rainbow colors off of this
- 10:50Speaker 4: city crosswalk day illegally vandalized city property without providing the
- 10:56Speaker 4: City of Orlando notice or at their approval to remove
- 11:01Speaker 4: this rainbow crosswalk that was painted here not only to
- 11:05Speaker 4: remember the lives of the forty nine, mostly LGBTQ people
- 11:09Speaker 4: of color, who were murdered here.
- 11:11Speaker 1: All right, Look, here's the thing. He uses the term vandalized,
- 11:15Speaker 1: So painting over it was vandalized. This is this is
- 11:18Speaker 1: the question though. This is again goes back to this
- 11:20Speaker 1: messaging thing. These have been so controversial. You've had some
- 11:24Speaker 1: people in some cities, some kids who have like you know,
- 11:27Speaker 1: stupidly done some like doughnuts over these things because they
- 11:30Speaker 1: hated the you know, the idea that this was actually done,
- 11:32Speaker 1: I mean, was a crosswalk the best idea to get
- 11:37Speaker 1: your message out there, and it is a message. I mean,
- 11:39Speaker 1: let's face it, it's a social message, it's a political message.
- 11:42Speaker 1: It just is. Did the other taxpayers in Orlando ever
- 11:46Speaker 1: get the chance to have any say on this? I
- 11:50Speaker 1: know that you're upset about this, and I understand that,
- 11:52Speaker 1: but did the other side, who maybe aren't too happy
- 11:56Speaker 1: with this, ever have any say? I don't know. If
- 11:59Speaker 1: vandalized they could make the argument, if you're very opposed
- 12:02Speaker 1: to this thing, that it was vandalized in the first
- 12:04Speaker 1: place by putting the Pride colors on there. And the
- 12:07Speaker 1: other thing is it's a piece of city property that
- 12:13Speaker 1: you've decided to make a political statement on it, and
- 12:15Speaker 1: it is I mean, this is more than just support.
- 12:17Speaker 1: This is more than just a movement. This is those colors.
- 12:22Speaker 1: You know, they basically took the rainbow. Those colors have
- 12:26Speaker 1: become very polarizing for a lot of people. It just is,
- 12:29Speaker 1: that's just a fact of the matter. The fact that
- 12:33Speaker 1: it's on a piece of city property, which is what
- 12:36Speaker 1: a crosswalk is, is that the best place for it
- 12:38Speaker 1: in the first place? Because the people opposed to that. Again,
- 12:42Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are saying it's just crosswalk,
- 12:44Speaker 1: So what but the people who are very, very adamantly
- 12:46Speaker 1: opposed to it, who have some strong feelings too, they
- 12:48Speaker 1: never got to say, but you did. I think the
- 12:52Speaker 1: whole era, and I think that's what the state was
- 12:54Speaker 1: trying to do here. I think it's what Dessantus was
- 12:55Speaker 1: trying to do. It's very polarizing, and for it's some
- 12:58Speaker 1: other public safety people. I don't know if I really
- 13:00Speaker 1: believe this. I've heard some other public safety people chime
- 13:02Speaker 1: in on this and they said the rainbow thing is
- 13:04Speaker 1: actually very distracting in traffic, you know, where people should
- 13:08Speaker 1: be focusing on what's going on the road and not
- 13:10Speaker 1: what's on the ground. Maybe I don't know, just a thought.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Not everybody had to say in this thing, so they're
- 13:17Speaker 1: very polarizing, though maybe that's not the best place to
- 13:19Speaker 1: make a statement on actual city property. That's my two
- 13:22Speaker 1: cents on that. Let's wrap it up and send you
- 13:24Speaker 1: into the weekend. We're gonna keep it short today because
- 13:26Speaker 1: I'm running out of material and we need to get
- 13:27Speaker 1: into the weekend with a check on the cracker barrel stock.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh boy, you can't lose literally hundreds of
- 13:41Speaker 1: millions of dollars in company value and not make it
- 13:47Speaker 1: a news business story. Let's go back. Let's go back
- 13:51Speaker 1: to the issue now, and let's get the word and
- 13:54Speaker 1: the description from the actual CEO. This. I know you've
- 13:58Speaker 1: seen all the time about the cracker barrel reband rebrand.
- 14:01Speaker 1: And this is when the day before yesterday, she was
- 14:02Speaker 1: on Goodmoting America saying everybody wants it. Everybody wants it.
- 14:07Speaker 1: Apparently not the customer base.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Honestly, the feedback's been overwhelmingly positive that people like what
- 14:13Speaker 2: we're doing. I'll give you another SoundBite. I actually happened
- 14:16Speaker 2: to be in Orlando last week with all of our managers.
- 14:18Speaker 2: We bring them together and once every other year, and
- 14:22Speaker 2: the number one question that I got asked Michael was
- 14:24Speaker 2: how can I get a remodel? When can I get
- 14:26Speaker 2: a remodel? How do I get on the list?
- 14:27Speaker 1: Really, yeah, here's the problem. And I think I think
- 14:31Speaker 1: we figured this thing out. And this is the other takeaway.
- 14:34Speaker 1: This is the This is like another business lesson. You
- 14:38Speaker 1: didn't listen to the customers, but you listened to the managers. Understandable.
- 14:42Speaker 1: I think all they wanted was some marketing. I think
- 14:44Speaker 1: that's what they were actually telling you. She took this
- 14:47Speaker 1: to mean, well, I want to we're gonna go full book.
- 14:49Speaker 1: We're gonna change everything that Cracker Barrel was known for,
- 14:52Speaker 1: and we're gonna change it. What's the result. By the way,
- 14:56Speaker 1: that's Julie Messino, that's the new CEO. By the way,
- 15:01Speaker 1: value down. The stock was down thirty seven percent, thirty
- 15:05Speaker 1: seven percent since she's taken over for her entire rain
- 15:07Speaker 1: as CEO. Now yesterday and I know you've seen the
- 15:10Speaker 1: stock and it's been it'll go up again, you know,
- 15:12Speaker 1: But stock tumbled like this. It was like a big
- 15:14Speaker 1: red line that went straight down to the crater of
- 15:16Speaker 1: the earth. They lost two hundred and fifty million dollars
- 15:20Speaker 1: just yesterday in value. The company did an evaluation overall
- 15:24Speaker 1: that thirty seven percent I talked about. I know, it's
- 15:26Speaker 1: a lot of numbers since she's been CEO. So this
- 15:28Speaker 1: is way before even the rebrand. Cracker Barrel has lost
- 15:32Speaker 1: five hundred and eighty seven million dollars. At what point
- 15:38Speaker 1: do you look at her and you say, I think
- 15:40Speaker 1: we made a mistake in hiring this lady. And this
- 15:43Speaker 1: goes back to really the issue on it right as
- 15:45Speaker 1: everybody kind of decided, look, why you mess with this,
- 15:48Speaker 1: it's the woke thing taken over. It's this and that.
- 15:49Speaker 1: I think it's more than that. I think I think
- 15:52Speaker 1: the takeaway on this is something more that we see
- 15:54Speaker 1: in corporate America all the time. You may have it
- 15:57Speaker 1: in your company, you've probably at least lived through. I
- 16:00Speaker 1: know I have hiring managers, marketing managers, and just general
- 16:08Speaker 1: corporate management in general that has absolutely no idea what
- 16:11Speaker 1: the product is I said it yesterday, fair or not.
- 16:14Speaker 1: I would be willing to bet that this lady has
- 16:17Speaker 1: never as a child growing up, has never had cracker
- 16:20Speaker 1: barrel as part of her DNA, like it's not part
- 16:22Speaker 1: of her life, has no understanding of what it means
- 16:24Speaker 1: to people, no idea, never took a road trip somewhere.
- 16:28Speaker 1: When do most people go to a cracker barrel and
- 16:29Speaker 1: played a little triangle game when you're going on a
- 16:31Speaker 1: road trip somewhere and you're stopping somewhere by a cracker
- 16:33Speaker 1: barrel because they put them by the highway for that
- 16:35Speaker 1: exact same reason. She has no idea what the little
- 16:39Speaker 1: piece of Americana means to the rest of the country.
- 16:42Speaker 1: And we've all experienced that. It happens in corporate America
- 16:45Speaker 1: all the time where they hire people, most of them
- 16:48Speaker 1: just bean counters who have no idea what the product is.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I lived in in radio so many times, so called
- 16:55Speaker 1: marketing managers that had no idea what we did. None
- 16:58Speaker 1: had no clue. We could have been making widgets in there.
- 17:01Speaker 1: No idea, absolutely no clue. And I bet you, I
- 17:04Speaker 1: bet you, if you lived in any kind of a
- 17:06Speaker 1: corporate environment, you've lived the exact same thing. That's the problem.
- 17:11Speaker 1: She has no clue, absolutely no clue what that product
- 17:16Speaker 1: is all about. Will it rebound? I don't know. There
- 17:19Speaker 1: is one other thing too, really, I mean truly, for
- 17:21Speaker 1: all the people bitching about the cracker barrel rebrand, there
- 17:25Speaker 1: weren't that many people going these days anyway. They were
- 17:27Speaker 1: already hurting before this. But she didn't help men takeaway
- 17:31Speaker 1: today though, go back to that story about Trump. He's
- 17:35Speaker 1: going to be mocked all day long and all weekend
- 17:37Speaker 1: long by you know who in the media and probably
- 17:39Speaker 1: maybe some friends of yours, maybe some people at work.
- 17:41Speaker 1: I don't know. Did you see that you're fighting crime
- 17:45Speaker 1: by handing out pizzas? Anybody that says that, anybody doesn't
- 17:50Speaker 1: understand what servant leadership is and what an impact that
- 17:54Speaker 1: actually has because it is massive and if they don't
- 17:56Speaker 1: understand that, they won't get it and they'll just try
- 17:59Speaker 1: to mock it. That's that's a massive, massive thing. Even
- 18:02Speaker 1: if you don't like Trump, he gets what it means
- 18:05Speaker 1: to lead people on that street because every one of
- 18:07Speaker 1: them that was there, that got up close and personal
- 18:09Speaker 1: with them, they'll never forget that. That's how you buy loyalty.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Thank you, I'm loyal to you. Thanks for being here.
- 18:14Speaker 1: I appreciate you so much. I don't talk about this
- 18:16Speaker 1: a lot. You know numbers, who the hell cares. But
- 18:18Speaker 1: the audio podcasts are going great and I appreciate it
- 18:21Speaker 1: so much for that, and the replay is on you.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Most of you see this on replay on X and
- 18:25Speaker 1: I get that. Thanks for the followers, but it's all
- 18:28Speaker 1: part of everything else that's called wicked Wisdom with Bill
- 18:29Speaker 1: Adams on Facebook and on YouTube and on x here
- 18:32Speaker 1: and the audio podcast as well. Thanks for finding those.
- 18:34Speaker 1: I appreciate you as always. Enough of me talking. I'm
- 18:37Speaker 1: out of material. You need to get into your Friday.
- 18:40Speaker 1: Make it a wicked awesome weekend. Who the heck knows
- 18:42Speaker 1: what's going to happen, but I'll talk to you on Monday.
