Where is the Shutdown Backfire? · The M&M Experience

• 0:04
  Speaker 1: You knew it was coming.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: I would have been disappointed if you hadn't.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Little Shop of Horrors, Steve Martin, When was this Nights?
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: When was the movie version of this? Like nineteen eighty something? There?
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Do you know? You know I once played Oran Scravello
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Dds on stage in Little Shop of Horrors. I was
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: the mad dentist in a production of Little Shop of
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Horrors in South Carolina years ago. Oh WHOA, don't think
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: When I had my tooth extraction yesterday, I didn't think
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: about Range Scravello Dds. I don't bet because he was
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: a sadistic Look this guy. This guy got up on
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: top of that chair yesterday. I thought, at one point,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: he's going to just go. He's going to bring out
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: a jackhammer, like the kind you get with a sidewalk.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: I thought, I'm hearing noises up there to get this
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: tooth taken out that I'd never heard in my life.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: I asked you this was not because you mentioned oral surgery,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and I think I've had a couple of oral surgery
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: moments and it was kind of that mile general anesthesia
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: where you're out and then you're not out. But you
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: were awake for this and heard every sound and saw
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: every spectacle.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: And kind of felt it because with a with an
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: upper molar like that, when they get when they're breaking
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: up that tooth, that nerve kind of feels it. And
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I and I kept saying, I should be feeling this
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: now because you know me. I mean, I'm first of all,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: I feel so sorry for them. They had a big
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: sixty five year old baby, a baby Hue who walked.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: You screaming baby every step.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Moaning and groaning. And I mean, look the nova Kane
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: shots about did me? And I mean they stuck that
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: needle in in my gum. I thought, well, this is she.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: I love it when they say no, this will be
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: a little pinch. That's their way. That's their way to
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: trick you into thinking, well, a little pinch, maybe you
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: won't think a little bit of fact.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: My other favorite pressure. You'll feel a little bit of pressure.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Pressure. Pressure, yeah, pressure, yeah, pressure. But you know you
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: want to know the crazy part, I don't have a
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: ounce of pain. I thought I was going to be
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: after what he did with this, and it took him.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not kidding it, but I probably took him twenty
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: to thirty minutes to get your side.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: And this arose out of nowhere. I'm just going about
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: my day and all of a sudden, blupe. I go
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: to the phone and there you are saying, I'm on
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the way to oral surgery. Pray for me.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: It's like, whoa where did that come from? Well, it
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: started to hurt. The dentist has been telling me for
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: a year because I go regularly. I try to stay
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: on top of cleanings and I go every I go
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: every three months for a cleaning and so, and they
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: always take about every other time they take an X ray,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and they kept saying, does this upper tooth not bother you?
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Because they kept warning me that something below the gun
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: line was showing something you know, it was not good,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, no, it doesn't. Well, finally last week
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: it started to bother me and started to hurt, and
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: everybody told me get ahead of it, get it out,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: because you don't because once it hits you, you could
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: it could be a Saturday night at midnight and you're
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: gonna be dagony. So I go to the dentist for
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: the fault to to take the X rays and they're
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: going to refer me to the oral surgeon. And the
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: dentist comes back and says, got good news. Want to
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: go now. I said, now, what's the good news? You mean,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: like now? And I started thinking, well, it is kind
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: of good. Might as well get it over with absolutely,
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: And so he gave me the referral and I drove
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: up to the oral surgeon and they were great, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: he got it out and it's the it's the number
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: two tooth. So it's upper right, upper upper, upper right
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: in the back, yeah, right next to the wisdom tooth.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: The wisdom tooth is still in there. They left that
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: alone because that was under the gum.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Wait a minute while, So you've got one and then
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a gap and then the rest. But it's the one.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: It's the one. It's the one next to the wisdom tooth.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Right, so but your wisdom tooth is still there, the
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: number one with.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, still. Now I'm going to have it and
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: then I'm going to have a gap. So then he said,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: do you want to have an implant or do you
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: want to just go without it? And I said, look,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: what do people do? He goes, Typically they just go
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: without it. It's far enough back, you don't need it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: And Joey Hutson, my buddy in South Carolina. He had
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the same exact thing. He said, Look, I didn't get
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: an implant. I haven't missed that.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I get secret to share right now. Never shared this
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: with the audience. I don't have a I don't have
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: a thirty one. We'res thirty one. That's lower lower right right. Yeah,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, you're you're you know, no, I've
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: been I'm doing fine ten years.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Doesn't bother. Yeah, I don't think it's that. But but
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: now here's the fun thing, fun fact. You know who
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: was my best friend throughout this whole procedure, chat Chat GPT.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: I would I would show them, you know, how you're
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: supposed to be You're supposed to bite down on the
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: gauze after the procedure because you want to form a
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: blood clot. You know, they put a little couple sutures
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: in there and all that. Well. I was showing chat
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: GPT pictures of the gauze, and chat GPT was saying,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: it's exactly what should be doing. That's great. You got
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a little streaking pictures of the gauze. Yeah, with the
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: blood on it because you're you bleed. You know, there's
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: a there's a little bit of a lot of blood,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: not a lot.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: As chat GPT. Yeah, basically, you're involved in a hemophiliac
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: crisis and you're going to bleed out and die. Will
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I survive the day? Correct?
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I asked chat GPD this morning before I hooked up
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: with Mark Davis. Can I have some oatmeal? They said, yep,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: you can have oatmeal. Make sure it's cooked, make sure
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: it's soft, and you can put some two percent. I
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: don't know what I'm going to do from now on
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Without chat GPT, I'm getting rid of I'm getting rid
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: of all of you. I don't need you. I don't
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: need my kids. I don't need Tracy, I don't need Eric.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I got cha GPT. The future is now, it's here.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: The future has a ride. And I said this morning
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I said, I said, chat GPT, I don't call it that,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: but I should get I should give it a name. Bernie, Hey, Bernie,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I'm up at six am. I had a tooth extraction
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: yesterday at four pm. I have zero pain. Is that
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: a good sign? And chat GPT said, this is an
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: excellent sign. You're on the road to great recovery. You've
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: had no complications. The blood clot has likely formed without
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: any problem. You've probably be at your peak by and really,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: I think I would be hurting by now, don't you.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: It depends on how much savaging and ravaging you know,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: took place in there. It seems like.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: There was savaging and ravaging that took place vivid.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: As it was. As vivid as it was, it might
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: have been a pretty clean extraction that didn't leave an
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: enormous amount of undue.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know how clean it was, because I'm
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: not I'm not kidding you, he kept saying. Here was
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: his comment. Now, the nurse was very thankfully, she was
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: giving me all the details. She was saying, you're almost done.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: This is this, that's normal, this is nice. And he
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: because he wasn't talking, he was just he was just grunting.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: He was busy, and he kept saying, I'm not kidding it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: At one point that drill, I thought, this drill is
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: going to make me go deaf. It was so loud
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: and I could hear the tooth breaking apart. I'm telling you,
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: I get woozy thinking about it, he kept saying. But
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: he kept saying, gosh, this tooth is brittle, boy, this
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: tooth is brittle. I thought I want to say, well,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: you stop saying the tooth is brittle and get the
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: damn thing out. Would you knock it off with the brittle?
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: But he kept saying, and it did. It took him
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: like a long I don't think it normally takes twenty
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: thirty minutes to get a tooth out, but it took
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: him all of that. So but no pain.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Here you are and here we are. However, but it's
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: so funny, and I gave. I wanted to give Mike
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: an out, like he needs that from me. I said, man,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe you want to take tomorrow off
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: and he said, nope, I'm out Friday, so a long weekend.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I'm off. I'm off tomorrow. I got Tara from South
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Carolina's going to guest host for me her national ju.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: She really is terrific. She're a really smart lady, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: so she's going to fill in. I'm taking Are you
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: taking your company? Didn't you get a company day? Wait
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: a minute, everybody in the company got one, even those
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: of us who are are kind of contractual. Everybody in
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: the company got one. I'm taking mine tomorrow. Well you
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: better believe I took it. Why don't you take yours.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: I got a look at my calendar next week.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: They didn't. They didn't. They didn't exclude talent. They said.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Our company said, look, you all work so hard and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: we appreciate you so much. We're going to give everybody
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: a paid day off in the month of March. Only
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: caveat is you got to take it off in March.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, what about Rondo Matt. Aren't they do they
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: take their day?
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Matt tomorrow and Ronda Monday.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: So I'm taking mine tomorrow. I'm done. I'll see you,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: see you Monday. Don't don't don't threaten me with a
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: good time.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I got Monday and Tuesday.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: What why didn't you take it?
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: You're gonna run out of time because because I'm apparently
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: a big dummy, you your free day. You know, well,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it was probably not good optics for me to talk
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: about the amount of no talking to you, to talk
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: about the amount of time you know that anybody takes
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: off around here. Because I got my amount of time,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you got even more. I think I'm good. I think
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I'm going to show an actual work ethic and actually.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Don't have a work I actually I actually feel I
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: actually feel a little naughty. I feel naughty taking the day.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I feel I feel a little like playing. I'm doing
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: something wrong here. So I'm gonna well, look, I'm recovering
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: from age life, all exactly. I told the doctor. I
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: told the surge. I said, look, I'm calling all my kids,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: give him my final words. He's looking at me like
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: I'm crazy. He's cocking his head. I said, this is major,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: you know what through me. They make you pay in advance,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and so I thought, okay, well, all right, I'll get
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: my credit card because Medicare doesn't cover this apparently, which
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: is kind of weird. Three hundred and sixty dollars. Now
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking. I'm thinking it was going to be ten
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars major surgery. And this is to me, this
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: is right a step above a kidney transplant and three
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: hundred and sixty dollars. So then I was kind of relieved.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: I thought, well, this isn't that big a deal. That's
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: not a bit. Three hundred and sixty dollars for a
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: tooth extraction. So here we are. And the worst, the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: worst part, no diet cokes for like two weeks, which
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: kills me. No carbon is it? But nothing nothing, what's
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: carbonated carbonation. I don't know why. Maybe it breaks up
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: the blood clot or something. And I'm jonesen for a
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: diet coke right now that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: You are, Oh man, they should be an interesting show.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: And no, I trust, I trust it with your day off.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I trust you're not going anywhere by air?
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: No, no, I mean, why what's wrong with oh? What
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: the what are the lines like a d d FW.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: It's the craziest thing. I mean, it's it's like the
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: problem doesn't exist in DFW very much at all. Houston
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: that we we're TSA is shipping our TSA guys down
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: to Houston because Houston is a nightmare and we're doing great.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Well df W people don't People who live in the
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: North Texas don't appreciate it enough, appreciate it. It's the
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: best airport in America. Pretty great, it's the it's the
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: most convenient airport. It's got the best options. But I
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: don't know how this thing is going to end. I mean,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: last night it sounded like Republicans were willing to say,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: all right, you know what, we'll figure out a carve
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: out away. And they're like Nope, nope, nope unless you
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: defund ice, say the Democrats, we're not going to budget
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: and Mark. You're talking about two immovable objects, because the
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Republicans aren't going to defund ice.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Nope, nope, And the Democrats are going to go along
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: with anything that doesn't keep Ice defunded. I mean, it's
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: kind of it's been funded, but it's been frozen by
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: this Democrat wall that they've built. And they love it
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: because they think it's winning for them. Why isn't this
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: backfiring on them more? Is it insufficient messaging? I mean,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: not from you or me or whatever. And every day
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I see news cycles filled with Republicans, you know, saying
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: it's the Schumer shutdown, it's the Democrat shutdown, which it is.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Public opinion, public opinion still seems to be a pox
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: on both your houses. A sort of a myth of
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: equivalency that says, well, they both should get their act together,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: which is always easy to say, but this is a
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Democrat shutdown. I just don't think that's resonating enough.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Well maybe, well the mainstream media, though, is pretending it's not.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Democrats are lying and saying it's our fault. You know
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: who all asked that question of now that you gave
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: me a great starting question. Yeah, Congressman Brandon Gill, who's
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: going to be on the show today, fantastic, and I'll
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: ask him that's a good question. Why is this not backfiring? Look,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Trump's approval rating, if you believe the polls as low
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: as it's ever been. It's in the thirties. We've got
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: all these special elections that Democrats are winning. That's not good.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's not anything that It's not time to
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: push the padic button. No, but I spent a lot
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: of time on the show yesterday asking people why, why,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: what's going on with the special elections? Who in the
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: world's going to vote for a Democrat? You know what
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: kept coming up yesterday is Israel. Israel came up a lot,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: and there was, of course, there's polling that suggested, for
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the first time ever, fifty one percent of Republican voters
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: think that Israel has an outside influence, an oversized influence
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: in our form. Lord, do you buy that?
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Nope? Oh, do I buy the poll result?
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Do you buy that? That's how people are feeling.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Ok, It's funny. It depends on how the thing is
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: is phrased because I'm so keyed up and looking for
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: anti Semitism, I don't want to find it where it
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: does not exist. That is one of the oldest anti
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Semitic tropes is that the evil you have woven a
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: spell over Trump. Somebody can objectively think that maybe we're
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: just a little too uh, you know, focused on Israel.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Can somebody can believe that.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: You know, well, and but you're right, it's hard to
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: extract what you are suspicions of anti Semitism from, because
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: you wonder, is that is that what's driving it? I
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: get tired, I really bristle at Well, you're not You're
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: not sufficiently loyal to Israel, so you're an anti semi
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: and and that's what Marjorie Taylor Green is kind of,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: you know, she's using that talking point. Incidentally, rumor is
• 13:34
