Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Finished strong. Friday has arrived. Here we are. There's so
- 0:08Speaker 1: much stuff in the news today. It's so bizarre to
- 0:11Speaker 1: hope all of this starts to make sense. But there's
- 0:12Speaker 1: so many horrific stories, but there's so many good things
- 0:15Speaker 1: happening all at the same time. I hope that makes sense. Anyway,
- 0:19Speaker 1: We'll get to all of it. Thanks to find a
- 0:20Speaker 1: Wicked Radio. I appreciate you. I hope you had a
- 0:22Speaker 1: great week. On the cusp of an awesome weekend about
- 0:26Speaker 1: to happen here and closer and closer to Christmas, we
- 0:29Speaker 1: got to talk about a little update on the Daniel
- 0:31Speaker 1: Penny trial. No real decision yet. What I'm afraid about
- 0:34Speaker 1: on this is that there's going to be a Friday
- 0:36Speaker 1: news dump. Following the news cycle for so many years,
- 0:39Speaker 1: what they usually do when there's bad news is they
- 0:41Speaker 1: dump it or wait for a trial decision or something
- 0:44Speaker 1: on a Friday, And I'm hoping and praying that's not
- 0:46Speaker 1: the case. Maybe not, but we're going into let's see
- 0:50Speaker 1: day three, day four. I think of jury deliberations, I
- 0:53Speaker 1: don't know what that means. I used to talk to
- 0:54Speaker 1: a lawyer all the time on the air who would
- 0:56Speaker 1: say the longer it takes for a jury to come back,
- 0:58Speaker 1: it's better for the defendant. I don't know whether that
- 1:00Speaker 1: still holds the case. I have no idea, and I
- 1:02Speaker 1: don't know whether that applies to this case. Who the
- 1:05Speaker 1: heck knows. We're going to talk about this as well.
- 1:08Speaker 1: I don't know how you feel about the Pete Hegsith
- 1:10Speaker 1: nomination for Secretary of Defense. I have a feeling, knowing
- 1:14Speaker 1: most of you in the audience, that you're pretty much
- 1:16Speaker 1: in favor of it, like I am, because I think
- 1:17Speaker 1: it's going to be great for the war fighters. But
- 1:20Speaker 1: it doesn't matter who you are. The fight he's putting
- 1:23Speaker 1: up with and from a communication aspect, because that's what
- 1:26Speaker 1: I do, that's what I talk about all the time.
- 1:27Speaker 1: It's perfect. I love. I love the fight that this
- 1:30Speaker 1: guy's putting up with and the messaging he's getting across.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Its fantastic. And there's also fantastic news we're going to
- 1:35Speaker 1: get to here in a minute. Can you imagine in
- 1:40Speaker 1: was it forty something days for the inauguration on stage
- 1:45Speaker 1: with then President Trump for the party the village people,
- 1:49Speaker 1: because it may happen after what the lead singer the
- 1:53Speaker 1: cop remember him of the village people said just yesterday
- 1:56Speaker 1: that would be absolutely amazing. All right, let's get to it.
- 1:58Speaker 1: And by the way, thanks for finding the audio podcast too.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It gets posted right after the show. This is a
- 2:02Speaker 1: replay later on and you get your podcasts where if
- 2:04Speaker 1: you find him for just the audio version. Perfect for
- 2:07Speaker 1: the car. All right, little update on this as well.
- 2:10Speaker 1: An update that's not an update. The crazy, crazy story,
- 2:14Speaker 1: the craziest of the week of the shooting of the
- 2:16Speaker 1: United Healthcare CEO in Manhattan. They still haven't found the
- 2:20Speaker 1: suspect as of this right now at just past eight
- 2:23Speaker 1: am Eastern time. And if they may have caught them
- 2:25Speaker 1: already if you're listening or watching this later on, But
- 2:29Speaker 1: what kind of an investigation has this much video evidence,
- 2:32Speaker 1: digital trail eyewitnesses and they still can't find the guy
- 2:36Speaker 1: in a city like Manhattan. I didn't think that was
- 2:39Speaker 1: possible in this day and age. I didn't think anybody
- 2:41Speaker 1: could go on the lamb with that much attention and
- 2:44Speaker 1: that much focus and resource on it. But here we
- 2:47Speaker 1: are something so disturbing as well. This is so bizarre.
- 2:52Speaker 1: And I won't get into some of the things that
- 2:53Speaker 1: were left there or said or posted, or people doing
- 2:56Speaker 1: interviews and talking about it the actual site where the
- 3:00Speaker 1: shooting happened, outside of that at Hilton. Just the other day,
- 3:04Speaker 1: people have put up like messages about the healthcare industry
- 3:07Speaker 1: and this guy like basically saying, and I won't get
- 3:09Speaker 1: into exactly what it was, but saying, you know, almost
- 3:12Speaker 1: like you deserved it. Good healthcare industry is evil. Stop
- 3:16Speaker 1: denying our claims. What do you hope to accomplish with that?
- 3:22Speaker 1: I don't understand. Nobody trust me. I am no fan
- 3:26Speaker 1: of the healthcare industry and the insurance industry whatsoever. I
- 3:29Speaker 1: have had my battles with it. I get no one
- 3:32Speaker 1: likes them, but to celebrate the assassination of one of
- 3:36Speaker 1: their CEOs. Really, And now this whole thing is coming
- 3:39Speaker 1: out about the you know, blue Cross, Blue Shield and
- 3:41Speaker 1: anesthesia as well, and saying that you know you're next Listen.
- 3:46Speaker 1: That ain't the way. That's absolutely completely not the way
- 3:49Speaker 1: to go about change in that industry or anything else.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I don't get that at all. That's just that's not
- 3:55Speaker 1: the kind of messaging you want to get out there.
- 3:58Speaker 1: But this is Pete hagsyth Uh. You know, if you
- 4:02Speaker 1: don't familiar with war Vet, he's got two Ivy League degrees.
- 4:06Speaker 1: He've been on Fox News, Fox and Friends for like
- 4:07Speaker 1: ten years, and now of course in the headlines because
- 4:10Speaker 1: he's President Trump's picked to be the Department of Defense
- 4:13Speaker 1: secretary to bring the warfighters representation to that entire department
- 4:18Speaker 1: and boise in for a fight. But I cannot now
- 4:21Speaker 1: I'm in favor of the guy anyway. I would like
- 4:22Speaker 1: to see him get the job, because I think that's
- 4:24Speaker 1: exactly what's needed. I understand that. I think a lot
- 4:26Speaker 1: of you do too. Even if you don't want him
- 4:29Speaker 1: to get it, Let's say you prefer somebody else. Let's
- 4:31Speaker 1: say you want to Santus to get it, you know,
- 4:33Speaker 1: supposedly the backup plane whatever. How can you look at
- 4:36Speaker 1: Pete Heggsith's fight in this and how he's handling the
- 4:39Speaker 1: media and the opposition and the lies and the slander
- 4:43Speaker 1: thrown at him and not admire it. I think it's
- 4:47Speaker 1: absolutely perfect. And my god, is that refreshing to see
- 4:51Speaker 1: something happen because it wasn't that long ago. We would
- 4:53Speaker 1: see it all the time when you're accused of something
- 4:56Speaker 1: that's really overblown, completely overhyped in some cases flat that
- 5:00Speaker 1: out lies so often you see public figures say I'm sorry,
- 5:04Speaker 1: I'll be better. It's my fault even though you know
- 5:06Speaker 1: you did nothing wrong. Well that's not the case now,
- 5:09Speaker 1: and it's a great lesson for all of us. First
- 5:11Speaker 1: of all, is what he's doing. He's going doing the
- 5:14Speaker 1: right thing in communicating and reaching out. Gates didn't really
- 5:17Speaker 1: do this because he has a lot of enemies in
- 5:18Speaker 1: the Senate. He might have been a backup planning way,
- 5:21Speaker 1: but that's a different story. Hegsath is meeting personally with
- 5:25Speaker 1: all of these senators, meeting with them, talking to them,
- 5:28Speaker 1: bringing his wife in some cases, his family, talking about
- 5:31Speaker 1: introducing himself to them and making his case personally. Very smart,
- 5:36Speaker 1: and he's working his ass off at it. More importantly,
- 5:39Speaker 1: what he's doing, he's not backing down. What a perfect
- 5:42Speaker 1: message for all of us. Had a little impromptu press
- 5:44Speaker 1: conference of the hallways yesterday, and this is why it
- 5:48Speaker 1: works so well for.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Him, And I'm proud of what I thought for I'm
- 5:51Speaker 2: not going to back down from them one bit. I
- 5:52Speaker 2: will answer all of these senators questions, but this will
- 5:55Speaker 2: not be.
- 5:56Speaker 1: A process tried in the media.
- 5:58Speaker 2: I don't answer to anyone in this group, None of
- 6:01Speaker 2: you not to that camera at all. Answer to President Trump,
- 6:05Speaker 2: who received seventy six million votes on behalf and a
- 6:08Speaker 2: mandate for change. I answer to the fifty the one
- 6:12Speaker 2: hundred senators who are part of this process, and those
- 6:14Speaker 2: in the committee. And I answer to my Lord and
- 6:16Speaker 2: Savior and my wife and my family. I'm proud to
- 6:19Speaker 2: be here.
- 6:21Speaker 1: God, I love that. I can't even describe how much
- 6:23Speaker 1: I love that. And it's a great lesson for all
- 6:25Speaker 1: of us. It is if I ever and I will
- 6:28Speaker 1: write my communication book, I swear to God, I'm gonna
- 6:31Speaker 1: have a whole chapter on that. You know what I
- 6:32Speaker 1: call it. I call it the I don't answer to
- 6:35Speaker 1: you or your bullshit technique. And that's exactly what he's saying.
- 6:38Speaker 1: He looked right at the camera and he said, I
- 6:39Speaker 1: don't answer to the media, you this, and that. Here's why.
- 6:42Speaker 1: Here's when you can do that. When you know you're right,
- 6:46Speaker 1: you have a righteous cause. And we'll get to this
- 6:48Speaker 1: in a second. You have the backing of the people
- 6:50Speaker 1: that want you to get there, the people and the
- 6:52Speaker 1: president that just nominated the guy. I love it. We
- 6:56Speaker 1: should all employ that, we should all use it in
- 6:58Speaker 1: their everyday lives when you know your I don't answer
- 7:01Speaker 1: to you or your bullshit. It's so effective and it's
- 7:04Speaker 1: so great. And when you know you're right, you are right.
- 7:07Speaker 1: He's not backing down. He's just so refreshing. And by
- 7:10Speaker 1: the way, isn't that the kind of guy you would
- 7:12Speaker 1: want in charge of the Department of Defense when he
- 7:15Speaker 1: knows he has the right cause he's not gonna cave
- 7:17Speaker 1: unlike all of these they're politicians in that department. Now
- 7:21Speaker 1: that's what's gotten this into this mess. They have no spine.
- 7:25Speaker 1: They don't fight for anything, they don't stand up for themselves.
- 7:28Speaker 1: If he doesn't get this job, if he gets voted
- 7:31Speaker 1: down to the Senate, well that's one thing that would
- 7:33Speaker 1: be really bad. But he knows that he died trying right.
- 7:38Speaker 1: That's a soldier's mentality. It's exactly why Trump picked the guy.
- 7:41Speaker 1: It's exactly why he has the support of most of
- 7:43Speaker 1: us in the country who voted for change in the
- 7:47Speaker 1: first place. Talked about that again, he sat down with
- 7:50Speaker 1: Megan Kelly and again he's doing a lot of the
- 7:52Speaker 1: media here and he talked aboud and this is important.
- 7:54Speaker 1: If you go to employ the I don't answer to
- 7:56Speaker 1: you or you're bullshit technique. You do have to have
- 7:59Speaker 1: the back. And it sounds like he's got two things.
- 8:01Speaker 2: He said to me when I left his office when
- 8:02Speaker 2: he chose me, was you're gonna need to be toughish.
- 8:07Speaker 2: You're gonna need to be toughishit. But he paused again
- 8:10Speaker 2: as I was walking away and said, but you're the
- 8:12Speaker 2: man for this moment. I chose you because you're the
- 8:14Speaker 2: guy that's gonna put the war fighters first.
- 8:17Speaker 1: We haven't had that.
- 8:19Speaker 2: We need a guy that's kicked down doors and understands
- 8:22Speaker 2: the consequences of war and why US deterring war, fighting
- 8:26Speaker 2: it and winning it is important. But ultimately he reiterated
- 8:29Speaker 2: the same thing this morning, hypete, I got your back.
- 8:32Speaker 1: It's so important. It's so good for Trump to say
- 8:34Speaker 1: he's got his back. How many how many mealy mouthed
- 8:37Speaker 1: spineless politicians in that office as president elect would have
- 8:41Speaker 1: backed right off when the media attacked the guy a lot.
- 8:45Speaker 1: It's that all comes together, that's what we want. I
- 8:48Speaker 1: love this guy's fight. I love it. I was kind
- 8:51Speaker 1: of like in I was like, yeah, oh he'd be good. Okay,
- 8:54Speaker 1: interesting pick. It's kind of a uh, it's kind of
- 8:56Speaker 1: a uh rebellious pick for him. After this week of
- 9:01Speaker 1: watching him fight against this and stand up to it,
- 9:04Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of the guy. That's exactly the
- 9:07Speaker 1: kind of character you want in that job. It's a
- 9:09Speaker 1: lesson for all of us. We should all we should
- 9:10Speaker 1: all be like that. When you know you're right, love
- 9:13Speaker 1: that and the exact opposite. I told you there's a
- 9:16Speaker 1: lot of like intense news stories this week, but there's
- 9:18Speaker 1: so much to gain from it. The exact opposite of
- 9:22Speaker 1: the right messaging, like what Pete Hegsith is doing in
- 9:24Speaker 1: his confirmation process is what the trans folks in the
- 9:28Speaker 1: bathroom issue were doing. Now, I want to make this
- 9:30Speaker 1: clear that let's take to make it clear, let's take
- 9:34Speaker 1: the trans issue out of it. Right anything, it's just whatever.
- 9:38Speaker 1: I have got my own opinions about that. You have
- 9:39Speaker 1: your own opinions about that. But when this whole issue
- 9:42Speaker 1: about the bathroom issue came on Capitol Hill, because Nancy
- 9:45Speaker 1: Mays said she was going to fight against it, She's
- 9:47Speaker 1: going to introduce legislation and make sure that biological man
- 9:50Speaker 1: can't go in women's bathrooms. They'll start at the federal
- 9:52Speaker 1: level first, and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson put
- 9:57Speaker 1: into action that biological males are not allowed and Capitol
- 10:00Speaker 1: Hill restrooms that started the big fight. If you, if
- 10:06Speaker 1: you were on the side of fighting against that, would
- 10:11Speaker 1: you protest it by doing exactly what people are accusing
- 10:14Speaker 1: you of. Here's what I mean. So a bunch of
- 10:18Speaker 1: trans advocates, like losing my words here and even no
- 10:20Speaker 1: one what they call them trans advocates for this issue
- 10:23Speaker 1: stormed Capitol Hill bathrooms yesterday in protest. It sounds exactly
- 10:28Speaker 1: like you thought it was a you're talking nazi Nazi
- 10:37Speaker 1: by all right, most regular, most regular people have have
- 10:46Speaker 1: been against exactly what they just did. They're afraid of
- 10:49Speaker 1: biological men, which you heard right there, especially in the
- 10:52Speaker 1: beginning storming into women's restrooms. That's what they were afraid of.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Whether or not it was going to happen. Well, it
- 10:59Speaker 1: just happened. In your protest. You just lost most people
- 11:04Speaker 1: that were kind of on the fence and were thinking
- 11:06Speaker 1: about supporting your cause. You just did that, and you
- 11:09Speaker 1: lost most normal, everyday regular people that aren't on top
- 11:13Speaker 1: of this issue every single day because we're trying to
- 11:15Speaker 1: live our lives. And then they saw that and they said, oh, Wow, well, yeah,
- 11:20Speaker 1: I don't like that. No, I don't like that at all.
- 11:23Speaker 1: They don't. I don't know what it is about that movement.
- 11:27Speaker 1: They have the worst messaging of all time. Every time
- 11:32Speaker 1: they try to get their message across or hold or
- 11:34Speaker 1: hold a protest or block a street or you know,
- 11:39Speaker 1: hold some sort of messaging captive, they get it wrong
- 11:42Speaker 1: every single time. Every time there's some sort of a
- 11:45Speaker 1: trans protest, whatever the issue is, they lose more support
- 11:50Speaker 1: because they don't know how to get the message across.
- 11:54Speaker 1: It's like they play into the fear that most people
- 11:56Speaker 1: had about them. Anyway. Here's another example also when Washington, DC,
- 12:01Speaker 1: so the Supreme Court has been taking up the case
- 12:03Speaker 1: of the affirmative care policy, you know in America, whether
- 12:12Speaker 1: you can force it, and this is like, you know,
- 12:15Speaker 1: the opponents will say it's body mutilation. Other people are
- 12:19Speaker 1: saying it's it's life saving affirmative care. Whatever it is.
- 12:23Speaker 1: It reached the Supreme Court. Here's more bad messaging. So
- 12:27Speaker 1: they reach out and they say, hey, we need some celebrities.
- 12:30Speaker 1: We need some celebrities from Hollywood to come out here
- 12:32Speaker 1: and maybe those that are close to the trans issue
- 12:35Speaker 1: come out here and support our cause and convince the
- 12:37Speaker 1: American people that we're right. We need to force the
- 12:39Speaker 1: Supreme Court to support our issue. Well here's in net Benning.
- 12:43Speaker 1: You know, the actress has been that active recently. She
- 12:46Speaker 1: gets it there the day before yesterday on the steps
- 12:50Speaker 1: of the Supreme Court, and she says this.
- 12:53Speaker 3: And to have a transgender child has made me so
- 12:57Speaker 3: much more interesting, so much more wise. And for the
- 13:05Speaker 3: Supreme Court justices, I encourage them to talk to their kids,
- 13:11Speaker 3: their grandkids, their nieces and nephews.
- 13:14Speaker 1: You couldn't find a worst message to say right then
- 13:18Speaker 1: and right there. And I will tell you why. Because
- 13:20Speaker 1: there are a lot of people, and I mean a
- 13:22Speaker 1: lot of people in just suburbia, everyday life, normal people
- 13:26Speaker 1: just live in their lives. You aren't really completely sure
- 13:28Speaker 1: about the trans issue. With trans kids. A lot of
- 13:31Speaker 1: people have this thought. You know. I think a lot
- 13:34Speaker 1: of these parents have trans kids. They want their kids
- 13:36Speaker 1: to be trans just so they can be the cool
- 13:38Speaker 1: talk of the party. I'm not saying it's right or wrong.
- 13:42Speaker 1: I'm telling you that's the perception that's out there. A
- 13:45Speaker 1: lot of people in America have that perception. You know,
- 13:49Speaker 1: when you have like the parents who were saying my
- 13:53Speaker 1: daughter knew she was tran. My child knew she was
- 13:57Speaker 1: trans when she was two years old. Most people in
- 14:00Speaker 1: this country say, no, you force that on them so
- 14:02Speaker 1: that you could be trendy and cool. Annette Benning just
- 14:07Speaker 1: reinforced without even knowing it, that entire thought by saying,
- 14:11Speaker 1: it's made me so much more interesting. That was the
- 14:14Speaker 1: exact wrong thing to say at the exact wrong moment,
- 14:17Speaker 1: at the exact wrong place on the steps of the
- 14:19Speaker 1: Supreme Court. They had the worst messaging. They don't get it.
- 14:22Speaker 1: They really don't get it. Every time they talk, every
- 14:25Speaker 1: single time or hold a protest, they lose more support
- 14:28Speaker 1: for their cause just saying it's all about the messaging,
- 14:32Speaker 1: all right. No real update And this is what worries
- 14:34Speaker 1: me about the Daniel Penny trial. We're into Friday now.
- 14:38Speaker 1: I think I think this is going to be day four,
- 14:41Speaker 1: you know, and again, as is always the case when
- 14:43Speaker 1: you do a live stream, later on, if you're listening
- 14:45Speaker 1: in the audio podcast or watching on a replay, maybe
- 14:48Speaker 1: even this weekend, maybe this is already decided. I don't know,
- 14:50Speaker 1: but as of this moment live Friday morning, no decision yet,
- 14:55Speaker 1: and it worries me because just following the news cycle
- 14:57Speaker 1: for decades, usually bad news is hidden on a Friday,
- 15:02Speaker 1: and they will actually do this. There are some juries
- 15:04Speaker 1: that will actually hide a decision for a Friday so
- 15:07Speaker 1: they can sneak out of there in the news cycle,
- 15:08Speaker 1: and normal people are off into the weekend having their
- 15:11Speaker 1: everyday lives and haven't had a chance to digest that
- 15:14Speaker 1: Fridays are where news stories go to die. I hope
- 15:17Speaker 1: that's not the case. I hope that just taking their
- 15:19Speaker 1: time to consider this, because I've said about this, I
- 15:22Speaker 1: think every single day this week. It's one of the
- 15:24Speaker 1: most important trials in American history. Not hyperbole, I really
- 15:27Speaker 1: truly mean that, because we're all on trial, and these
- 15:30Speaker 1: prosecutors are on trial, and the right for good citizens
- 15:33Speaker 1: to stand up for their fellow citizens is on trial.
- 15:36Speaker 1: And that it was interesting. This was Jesse Waters last night.
- 15:39Speaker 1: He had on John Walsh, remember John Walsh from America's
- 15:42Speaker 1: Most Wanted and the Adam Waller story and all that.
- 15:45Speaker 1: He was on talking about the United CEO shooting. He
- 15:49Speaker 1: was talking about that in the interview, but he wanted
- 15:52Speaker 1: to talk about the Daniel Penny trial, and I'm actually
- 15:54Speaker 1: glad he did to remind people how important it is.
- 15:56Speaker 4: I just want to talk to you about Daniel Penny.
- 16:00Speaker 4: It's the biggest travesty in the history of this country.
- 16:03Speaker 4: That guy's a hero. And there were eight murders on
- 16:08Speaker 4: the subway this year. It's up sixty percent. And here
- 16:11Speaker 4: we've got a marine risking his life to jump on
- 16:14Speaker 4: a guy and the victim Jordan Neely. He's a mentally
- 16:18Speaker 4: ill guy, been arrested twenty seven times. The whole society
- 16:21Speaker 4: let him down. We're the richest, most powerful country on
- 16:23Speaker 4: the planet.
- 16:24Speaker 1: He's right. I think John Walsh's right now. I give
- 16:26Speaker 1: him credit there for it wasn't on the topic list,
- 16:28Speaker 1: but he kind of inserted it anyway, and I'm glad
- 16:30Speaker 1: he did to remind people how important this is. We
- 16:32Speaker 1: got a decision soon. I don't know, Like I said,
- 16:35Speaker 1: you used to talk to a lot of attorneys on
- 16:37Speaker 1: the air that would tell you. You know, they read
- 16:41Speaker 1: into the amount of time it takes for a jury
- 16:43Speaker 1: to come back with a decision, and sometimes it could
- 16:45Speaker 1: be good for a defendant, and there's certain questions they ask.
- 16:47Speaker 1: Maybe none of that applies to this one. I don't
- 16:49Speaker 1: know that they're taking their time to consider this. At
- 16:53Speaker 1: least it is not a rush decision. I just hope
- 16:55Speaker 1: the guy is I hope the guy is free to
- 16:57Speaker 1: live his life because he's gone through enough already. A
- 17:00Speaker 1: lot on the line here, all right. I told you
- 17:02Speaker 1: there's a lot of intense stories, but a lot to
- 17:03Speaker 1: gain from them. But there's one story that popped up
- 17:06Speaker 1: yesterday that amazes me. This is fantastic. I love it.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Think of how many musical groups and I was thinking
- 17:12Speaker 1: about this today, or performance artists or whatever has sent
- 17:15Speaker 1: have sent go way back to twenty fifteen when Trump
- 17:19Speaker 1: was Trump was running or decided to run, that sent
- 17:23Speaker 1: out cease and dislist desist letters to not play their
- 17:27Speaker 1: songs at his rallies or or speeches or anything. A
- 17:31Speaker 1: lot of them. I was thinking about that today. I
- 17:32Speaker 1: think Fleetwood, mac Journey. There are some other rock artists
- 17:36Speaker 1: who was Metallica one of them I don't know, but
- 17:37Speaker 1: they all did well. You know who didn't. The Village
- 17:41Speaker 1: People didn't because the people in charge of that group,
- 17:44Speaker 1: they get it, they understand it. In fact, what if
- 17:48Speaker 1: we get the Village People at the inauguration. Here's the
- 17:51Speaker 1: lead singer. His name is Victor Willis. He was the cop,
- 17:56Speaker 1: remember the cop uh singing Miller Trump dance, right, that's
- 18:02Speaker 1: been made so popular and it brought back that song
- 18:05Speaker 1: out of obscurity. This is what he said yesterday on
- 18:08Speaker 1: a podcast.
- 18:08Speaker 5: If the president they let because the President elect has
- 18:12Speaker 5: done so much for YMCA and brought so much Jode
- 18:19Speaker 5: to so many people. The song has actually gone back
- 18:22Speaker 5: to number one and it's still number one today. So
- 18:26Speaker 5: if he were to ask village people to perform the
- 18:30Speaker 5: song live for him, we'd have to seriously consider it.
- 18:35Speaker 1: Please tell me, Please tell me, in forty some odd days,
- 18:38Speaker 1: we're going to see President Rump up there doing the
- 18:41Speaker 1: the YMCA dance, you know, the Trump dance with that guy,
- 18:45Speaker 1: the cop from the village or all of the village people.
- 18:47Speaker 1: How great would that be. That'd be the final sign
- 18:49Speaker 1: that America is healing again. It's kind of like our
- 18:52Speaker 1: theme today, like that's a guy that gets it. That's
- 18:55Speaker 1: a guy that gets the messaging. He knows how to
- 18:56Speaker 1: get it across. Even if I never understood that, if
- 19:00Speaker 1: you're if you've got a guy running for president that
- 19:04Speaker 1: is featuring your song as a musical artist, and some
- 19:08Speaker 1: of them hadn't been in the public eye for years.
- 19:10Speaker 1: Why fight it? Like, why just just go with it,
- 19:16Speaker 1: you know, make a public statement to appease your fans
- 19:18Speaker 1: who hate Trump maybe if you want to whatever, and
- 19:20Speaker 1: just say, oh, we didn't approve that, but let him
- 19:22Speaker 1: do it anyway. It's bringing your song back in the charts.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Never understood that well. That guy gets it. Victor willis
- 19:29Speaker 1: from the village people. Of all people, he gets it.
- 19:32Speaker 1: They embraced it. He may not even be a Trump supporter,
- 19:35Speaker 1: but he's got smart business sense enough to know that, Hey,
- 19:38Speaker 1: this is becoming like part of the part of American
- 19:41Speaker 1: history here. Let's let's hold off on the season desist letter.
- 19:45Speaker 1: And you know what if they invite us, let's show
- 19:47Speaker 1: up at the inauguration and make some money. Why not?
- 19:51Speaker 1: That guy gets it. God, I just imagine that situation, right,
- 19:55Speaker 1: the village people what they like and their's seventies. Now
- 19:58Speaker 1: you included that guy, but they're in there outfits and
- 20:00Speaker 1: they're dancing up there with Trump. Oh please let that happen. Please.
- 20:06Speaker 1: And you know, now after he said that, you know
- 20:08Speaker 1: Trump's gonna invite him. You know he will because he
- 20:12Speaker 1: gets it, gets the messaging. God, please let that happen
- 20:17Speaker 1: all right. Despite the fact that there's a lot of
- 20:18Speaker 1: intense news, there's a lot to take away from it.
- 20:21Speaker 1: First takeaway in a world of weasels, be a pete
- 20:26Speaker 1: hegseath again, what's the technique? I don't answer to you
- 20:30Speaker 1: or your bullshit technique. It's exactly what he's doing and
- 20:33Speaker 1: I think all of us can learn from that. The
- 20:34Speaker 1: other one is, don't take any crap from anybody. All right,
