• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Wake up this morning and hear about the rescue of
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: the pilot. So very, so very grateful for that first thing.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas, the
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: second most famous Thomas and Charlotte's Jeword.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Said, steal me stem you have a day at least
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: for work.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: When the sun comes up, drops a pet of the Scooday.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Joey is eying a dream.
• 0:28
  Speaker 5: Do all the jas needs.
• 0:31
  Speaker 6: The one that Joe's as smiled?
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: He only as or you don't know it, Joe, that's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: been the argument. Is Joe smiling because you don't know?
• 0:45
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: The land of narrative opens its door to you at
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: We will tell you what went on last night. We
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: will give you our analysis of it, and we want
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to hear how it's impacting you where you are. Sometimes
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: we get to hear about how we are impacting you
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: where you are. This email to that point from Gerard,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: who writes in from Greenwich. He said, so, what happened
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: to those radio stations that blew you out because you
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: were a change maker? Well they're all gone. I mean
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the transmitters are still on, but they're all gone. All
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the people have scattered to the four winds. All the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: folks who were defending their position lost their positions when
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: the stations were sold. There's a bigger lesson to that.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, they were defending their position in a hierarchy
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: that might not continue even with So their momentary defense
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: of their position within a hierarchy wound up costing them
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: in the long run. So you pick your fights, I
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: guess is the point and the idea that you don't
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: want to change because it's the system you've grown accustomed to. Really,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Jefferson warned ust all experience at shown that it's easier
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to suffer the abuses and usurpations. Now in the case
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: of these radio shows and these radio stations, they were
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: falling prey to the same thing that the big corporations.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: This was before in most cases the big corporations had
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: really metastasized. There were some regional chains, but there was
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: nothing like iHeart and stuff like that going on. Is
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: that all these stations had grown comfortable in their position
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: in the market and forgot about who put them there.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: They had come to disregard the listener as an axiom.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: They figured that was a fixed point in their universe,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and when challengers came on the scene to those audiences,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: they weren't ready to try to to win them back.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: They just presumed they were always going to be there.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: And that's a message even politically for voters and political parties.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Our first things this morning, United States pulled off a
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: daring rescue to pilots shot down behind the enemy lines
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: in Iran. If you will, one report is a pilot
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: survived at seven thousand foot altitude in the Iranian mountains.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Part of the story is being spun that the Iranians
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: were convinced beforehand that we had already rescued the pilot
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: and therefore were not on high alert to look for
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: a rescue operation. President Trump took to social media and
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: proclaimed we will never leave an American war fighter behind.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Israel claimed the killing of the intelligence chief leading Irond's
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Revolutionary Guard. Israel Cats Defense Minister the announcement, pointing out
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: that the Revolutionary Guard are shooting civilians and we are
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: eliminating the leaders of the terrorists, he said. President Trump
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: was being interviewed by The Hill magazine and was asked
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: if US ground troops were not going to be used,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: if that was off the table, even if that includes
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: reopening the Strait of Hormuze. President Trump said no normal
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: people would make a deal by now. Smart people would
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: make a deal. If they were smart, they would make
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: a deal. The President also said in this interview that
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: there is not chaos in his administration and there aren't
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: more impending cabinet shakeups after the ouster of Attorney General
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Christy nom An airstrike
• 4:53

  Speaker 1: The first thing today is Eastern redit.
• 13:18
  Speaker 13: Hurry make and my money hurry Tully.
• 13:24
  Speaker 9: I'm glad I don't have to do this.
• 13:26
  Speaker 23: For a living.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: So I said this on Friday, and I received several
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: emails and text messages querying my concern over Easter becoming
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a three day weekend. Here we are on what a
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: lot of enterprises are calling Easter Monday, giving three day
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: weekend status to Easter so that you know, holiday isn't
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: wasted on a day that you might not be working anyway.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: And there are ludicrous reasons why we do this, and
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: they're always wrapped in something that seems nice. Oh well,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: this is just an opportunity to continue the celebration when
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: that's the last thing they want to do is continue
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: to discuss the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Oh, that's right.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: They didn't want to talk about that. They wanted to
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: talk about Cadbury bunnies and Reese's peanut butter cup eggs.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: That's what that was what they wanted to keep talking
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: about for a day. But tell me, several people have
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: questioned my point that three day weekends so the worst
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: thing to happen to commemoration, and my proof, first and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: foremost is Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. First, we decided
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: to make Abraham Lincoln and George Washington birthdays a three
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: day weekend rather than commemorate them on the days they
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: actually happened. Then after a bit of that, we were told, well,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: it's too many three day weekends so close together, so
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: we're going to combine them and make them President's Day,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: not Lincoln in Washington Day. Presidents, all presidents because they
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: are the special ones. They're the dear leader of our proletarian.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, we went from commemorating to
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: great men in American history to commemorating Bill Clinton and
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Rutherford B. Hayes and Joe Biden at the all lump
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: together because they held the same job title as Abraham
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Lincoln and George Washington. Martin Luther King Junior Day one
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: of the more recent ones. Ever since we made Martin
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Luther King Junior Day a three day weekend, we've learned
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: less and less about the movement for civil rights and
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: what doctor King stood for in reality, and we've become
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: more racially divided than ever before. So why and this
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: idea that we go to a three day weekend, It'll
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: soon be the androgynist spring holiday. It'll just be spring break.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: We'll just pick the name. It's already part of the vernacular.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: It's just spring break weekend. And then you don't have
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: to worry about feeling like, well, why are we having
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: this weekend because it's a three day weekend. You have
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: three day weekends because you have to have three three
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: day weekends because here at our capitalist society, not working
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: is what we strive for. And then it's just a
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: matter of time before Thanksgiving becomes a three day weekend.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, why not we made the holiday up, it's
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: only hours. Why not have a three day weekend for it.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Maybe do it, do it backwards. We'll do Thanksgiving on Friday.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: That way, the NFL doesn't have to really disrupt a
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: schedule all that much. And then, if we've already done
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: it to Easter, who's to stop our Winter Solstice celebration
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: from taking a three day weekend that third week of December?
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Why not? Why have Christmas on one particular day. If
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: the agnostics and atheists in my world had their way,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: they would be out there on a stump telling you
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: you can't prove Jesus was born. Then the scholarly emails
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: about when taxes were generally paid during that era of governance.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: If you lived in Bethlehem at the time, you didn't
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: pay your taxes in December. That's crazy talk, Joe, And
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: whether real or not real, it debases and creates yet
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: again a secularization in this world where it's no longer
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: a battle. You know, to keep church in state. Separate.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: State must trump church pun not intended per se, State
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: must vanquish church, state must beat church uber alis Wow,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: a phrase certainly used by a particular government didn't want
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: churches Onwards further in further up, ro Kanna and I
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: love this because this program is not covered by anyone
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: else as news. This is our analysis of the news
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: if I ask anyone to cover jud did you hear
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas go on about the Easter, buddy, And that's
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: not a news story. I mean, it's a story you
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: can tell them say, Joe Thomas said something pretty controversial
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: about three day weekends in Easter, But it is not news.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I have not done anything. I have expressed my opinion
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: to an amassment of people. But there is no bill
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: pending before the US House of Representatives that would protect
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Easter from being turned into a three day weekend or
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: anything like that. And op eds, whether they're written by
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: a politician, elected holder or not, are not news either.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: Yet.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Rou Kanna writes an op ed for Fox News. Fox
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: News because it's their job to promote Fox News. Did
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: they mention Fox News to you? And don't forget Fox
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: News used it as a news story because Rokanna said
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: these things about tariffs. And I love this because I
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: don't know I'm guilty of this. You know, we'll get
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: into a jag. We'll talk for a while, I'll give
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: you my analysis of something, and then something will come
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: up later on in the conversation that doesn't necessarily job
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: with the first We try to stay on point, but
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: you've got to move around. Mornings are busy, and I
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: thought this was interesting. The op ed by ro Kanna
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: starts out Trump's tariff policies failed to rebalance trade with
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: China while harming American manufacturer's farmers. And you should give
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: the money back to God. So is it the tariffs
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: are bad row or were the tariffs good but the
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: wrong people are benefiting from them? And where did you
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: study economics? Because in the economics books that I've read,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: tariffs aren't supposed to be a give back to the people.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I understand. I understand Rocana is a Democrat, and that's
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: part of the training program when you go off to
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Democrat camp, that every dollar corrected collected by the government
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: can be used to pitch some Marxist agenda. And whether
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: he hangs with Tommy Massey or Tom Carrott and appears
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: in films like The Swamp. Regardless, he's still a leftist.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: He just doesn't like the Democrat. It's any more than
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: the business owners.

• 28:33
  Speaker 17: Yeah, my bald head got got painted and got hit
• 28:36
  Speaker 17: you know a couple of times. You know, it was
• 28:40
  Speaker 17: it was very quiet very low key and uh, you know,
• 28:42
  Speaker 17: just a lot of stories and stuff to watch and
• 28:44
  Speaker 17: to follow, and you know, and especially after the onslaught
• 28:48
  Speaker 17: on Friday night when I and I tried to explain
• 28:50
  Speaker 17: it to my wife, who didn't really follow you know,
• 28:52
  Speaker 17: she's from Belgium.
• 28:53
  Speaker 13: She followed soccer like it's you know, she could tell
• 28:55
  Speaker 13: you the whole Belgium roster.
• 28:56
  Speaker 17: I like that, you know, but with with all the
• 29:00
  Speaker 17: basketball going on, and I've tried to, you know, lay
• 29:02
  Speaker 17: out the you know, this is why we do what
• 29:04
  Speaker 17: we do and there are sixty four teams, but there's
• 29:07
  Speaker 17: actually sixty eight.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: You can actually explain why we do what we do.
• 29:11
  Speaker 13: No, no, not even okay, And that's why.
• 29:15
  Speaker 17: And so I'm trying to read the tea leaves and
• 29:17
  Speaker 17: try to read in between the lines and whatever. Because
• 29:20
  Speaker 17: Dusty May the Michigan Counts, I want to go into
• 29:22
  Speaker 17: this Michigan story a little bit before they played tonight,
• 29:24
  Speaker 17: their favorites Tonight over Dad Hurley, the center Terrace Reid
• 29:28
  Speaker 17: was a Michigan guy and he's playing for Yukon now.
• 29:31
  Speaker 17: But the story behind all that happens, I'm gonna get
• 29:35
  Speaker 17: to a point because Dusty May knows how to work
• 29:40
  Speaker 17: the system, okay, and he's had in his last four
• 29:43
  Speaker 17: years because he you know, he went to the final
• 29:45
  Speaker 17: four of Florida Atlantic. They got beaten around to sixty
• 29:48
  Speaker 17: four the next year, but he gets the Michigan job
• 29:51
  Speaker 17: in his first five days. He signed seven guys okay,
• 29:54
  Speaker 17: and then he then he added this soul in which
• 29:57
  Speaker 17: I'll talk about in the second but the Terras Reid
• 29:59
  Speaker 17: transfer because he left Michigan in twenty twenty four a
• 30:02
  Speaker 17: two year starter.
• 30:03
  Speaker 13: Saint Louis Guy averaged twelve minutes as the first year,
• 30:07
  Speaker 13: so on and so on.
• 30:07
  Speaker 17: For when Juwan Howard was fired, he listened to coach
• 30:10
  Speaker 17: May who had two seven footers in the fold, Daniel
• 30:13
  Speaker 17: Wolfe and Vlad Golden. And they came from Florida Atlantic
• 30:17
  Speaker 17: with coach May. Daniel wolf did not he been Golden anyway?
• 30:20
  Speaker 14: Is this guy?
• 30:21
  Speaker 13: I'll get into all that in a minute, because I'm
• 30:23
  Speaker 13: going off the rails.
• 30:24
  Speaker 17: Dusty May has says all the right things at the
• 30:28
  Speaker 17: right time and is a wonderful representative for Michigan. He
• 30:32
  Speaker 17: became the first Big Ten coach to defeat all seventeen
• 30:36
  Speaker 17: conference opponents in one year, and again He's averaged thirty
• 30:40
  Speaker 17: one wins per year his last four.
• 30:43
  Speaker 13: That's okay. He won the Big Ten title in his
• 30:45
  Speaker 13: first year.
• 30:46
  Speaker 17: That had never happened in the Big Ten, talking about
• 30:48
  Speaker 17: the conference championship.
• 30:49
  Speaker 13: So how does he handle things? He gets caught. This
• 30:52
  Speaker 13: guy can handle a press conference well.
• 30:54
  Speaker 25: And God gives you the raspy voice and height and
• 30:57
  Speaker 25: lack of vertical jump.
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: He's got to bless you with something.
• 30:59
  Speaker 25: So obviously still, it's an honor to be one of
• 31:05
  Speaker 25: the two teams still standing playing in the last Monday
• 31:09
  Speaker 25: of an amazing college basketball season.
• 31:11
  Speaker 17: Okay, So he says all the right things and runs
• 31:14
  Speaker 17: the program the right way. A case in point, as
• 31:17
  Speaker 17: I researched and tried to find Vladimir Vladdie Golden on
• 31:22
  Speaker 17: the roster and tried to look up the average age.
• 31:24
  Speaker 17: First of all, even AI can't find the average age
• 31:29
  Speaker 17: of the Michigan basketball roster. And I can tell you
• 31:32
  Speaker 17: they've got twenty three and twenty four year old guys playing.
• 31:34
  Speaker 13: Same with Yukon. And so the Terriss Reid story.
• 31:37
  Speaker 17: I started to look up Terras Reid because he was,
• 31:41
  Speaker 17: you know, at Michigan in the fold, and then all
• 31:43
  Speaker 17: of a sudden, Daniel Wolf and Golden become Michigan players,
• 31:47
  Speaker 17: and then there's Jacks Lindenberg who will turn twenty four
• 31:50
  Speaker 17: in September.
• 31:51
  Speaker 13: Golden's twenty four, he'll be twenty five in May.
• 31:55
  Speaker 17: So with all this going on, Dusty May had a
• 31:58
  Speaker 17: relationship with Tis Reid perfectly told Terras, I want you
• 32:02
  Speaker 17: to stay, however, you're gonna have to. You know, you're
• 32:05
  Speaker 17: six eleven. I got these two seven footers. You've got to,
• 32:09
  Speaker 17: you know, work the system to become really really good. Well,
• 32:12
  Speaker 17: terres Reid said, I guess I'll go to Yukon.
• 32:14
  Speaker 25: So at that point then it was just it was,
• 32:16
  Speaker 25: you know, well known that he was going to look
• 32:18
  Speaker 25: at something different. And we've maintained a relationship with the
• 32:21
  Speaker 25: guys on our team. They all speak highly of them.
• 32:23
  Speaker 25: They've stayed in contact, We've crossed paths with him. His
• 32:25
  Speaker 25: younger brother was on their circuit, so I'd see his
• 32:27
  Speaker 25: parents and gyms and whatnot. So it's a great family.
• 32:30
  Speaker 25: He deserves the success. It's been fun to watch, but
• 32:32
  Speaker 25: he's put on show in this tournament.
• 32:33
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 32:33
  Speaker 17: So Dusty May very good, very eloquent, very quick with
• 32:38
  Speaker 17: his comments and the way he speaks, he speaks well.
• 32:41
  Speaker 17: Caroline is drooling right now, and I think, and again,
• 32:45
  Speaker 17: it's easy to make predictions and say this guy, Tommy
• 32:48
  Speaker 17: Lloyd pretty much said all the long.
• 32:50
  Speaker 13: Dusty May says, I don't talk about it. I go,
• 32:53
  Speaker 13: I don't.
• 32:53
  Speaker 17: I don't talk about jobs. I don't talk about jobs
• 32:55
  Speaker 17: that are open. I don't talk about jobs that are closed.
• 32:57
  Speaker 17: He goes, I don't really like to talk about my job.
• 33:00
  Speaker 17: Dusty May is just this little planet out there that
• 33:04
  Speaker 17: could very easily land in Blue Heaven.
• 33:08
  Speaker 13: Okay, you know, and because he's been coy, he's been
• 33:11
  Speaker 13: really good.
• 33:12
  Speaker 17: But but he's only in Michigan two years and he
• 33:16
  Speaker 17: you know, he's saying all the right things.
• 33:17
  Speaker 13: Look, I really love it here. You know they're gonna
• 33:19
  Speaker 13: give it.
• 33:19
  Speaker 17: He's got a gazillion dollars in bonuses coming up because
• 33:23
  Speaker 17: you know how he's been winning. So anyway, just a
• 33:27
  Speaker 17: sideline with tonight in Michigan, Michigan. When I saw the
• 33:32
  Speaker 17: Michigan Arizona game, and I'm sitting there watching it, going,
• 33:36
  Speaker 17: this looks like an NBA.
• 33:39
  Speaker 19: I mean, it was just old old white, looked like
• 33:42
  Speaker 19: the almost the y m c A. It was just
• 33:44
  Speaker 19: a bunch of old white guys. It was just it
• 33:49
  Speaker 19: was full of I mean, like really experience good players.
• 33:53
  Speaker 13: I say that tongue in cheek.
• 33:54
  Speaker 17: But this the two rosters, and so no school though
• 33:59
  Speaker 17: I went to Arizona. This roster page page, Now I could.
• 34:02
  Speaker 17: I could spend half.
• 34:03
  Speaker 13: The day looking up ages and going to Google and
• 34:05
  Speaker 13: looking it up like I did the two guys today.
• 34:08
  Speaker 17: But it takes the four or five rosters were published
• 34:12
  Speaker 17: before Michigan had Vlad Golden even on the roster, you know.
• 34:17
  Speaker 17: And so it's just it's interesting how my point is this,
• 34:21
  Speaker 17: it's interesting how the really good coaches and I don't
• 34:25
  Speaker 17: want to say manipulate, but how they run their system
• 34:29
  Speaker 17: and there's a reason they win, and they're really really
• 34:32
  Speaker 17: good at how they recruit. Hey, you know, tip the
• 34:36
  Speaker 17: hat to Ryan otum Okay kept the waters calm, lost,
• 34:41
  Speaker 17: you know, almost the whole team right when he when
• 34:43
  Speaker 17: he got hired, hit the ground running. And so at
• 34:46
  Speaker 17: some point there's gonna have to be where all right,
• 34:49
  Speaker 17: let's let's talk about this G League thing.
• 34:52
  Speaker 13: Let's talk about you know, what's gonna happen.
• 34:55
  Speaker 17: Who's gonna you know, do you sign the two way
• 34:58
  Speaker 17: contract and then you allowed to get back in because
• 35:01
  Speaker 17: there's all kinds of like legal things that you can
• 35:04
  Speaker 17: that you can do now with a you know, G
• 35:07
  Speaker 17: League player. And that's what a lot of the coaches
• 35:09
  Speaker 17: are talking about to the time, about wait, we we're
• 35:11
  Speaker 17: getting twenty five. You know, cal Of Perry's been great,
• 35:13
  Speaker 17: he says, I get a twenty He says, I'm going
• 35:16
  Speaker 17: up against a guy who's twenty six, who's.
• 35:18
  Speaker 13: Waving to his ex wife and two kids. He goes, no,
• 35:22
  Speaker 13: won do they want to stay in school? When do
• 35:24
  Speaker 13: they want six and seven? The years?
• 35:26
  Speaker 22: I mean?
• 35:26
  Speaker 13: He goes, they got they got alimony payments.
• 35:29
  Speaker 22: You know.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: So, I mean that's that's part of the thing. I mean,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: this is a promotional thing. University of Michigan, uh, you know,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: is getting more run than the next time the football
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: team is caught you know, scouting inappropriately.
• 35:43
  Speaker 22: You know.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: University Connecticut. Whoever heard of stores Connecticut before they started
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: winning basketball games? Their enrollment is skyrocket At James Madison University,
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: their enrollment is skyrocketed, and not by athletes, because they're
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: on national TV in front of ten or so percent
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: of the American population and they make the news feeds
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: and everything else. So let them be professionals about it,
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: just like a big time professor, like when Dan Patrick
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: goes out and says, you could learn broad sportscasting from
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: mac McDonald. You know that's a marketing tool there.
• 36:17
  Speaker 13: Yeah, that and a couple of coffee. I'll gets you
• 36:19
  Speaker 13: a bagel.
• 36:19
  Speaker 22: So the.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: Thing that I find interesting and we don't have time
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: to poke around it here per se. Well, actually maybe
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: we do. But remember when one and done was the
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: scourge of college basketball. All these you know, nineteen year olds,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: eighteen year olds were playing one season for Kentucky did it. Well,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: now we've come the full circle on it. It's and
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: now we've got twenty six and twenty seven year olds
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: playing you know what happened to the one and done's?
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: This is almost a response to that first I think, anyway,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: what do you think?
• 36:51
  Speaker 22: Yeah?
• 36:51
  Speaker 17: Well, see, because Lad Golden talked about these two centers,
• 36:55
  Speaker 17: Golden had signed a two way contract with Miami Heat.
• 36:59
  Speaker 17: Daniel was selected by the Nets in twenty twenty five.
• 37:02
  Speaker 17: He played at Ali, played at Michigan y Ax Lendenburgh.
• 37:06
  Speaker 17: As I said, who turns twenty four? In September he
• 37:09
  Speaker 17: took his name out of the draft. You know, so
• 37:12
  Speaker 17: when you and when you watch the game tonight, and
• 37:15
  Speaker 17: this is not a knock on Tony Bennett, and just
• 37:17
  Speaker 17: because we know it so well, it's certainly not a
• 37:19
  Speaker 17: knock at twenty nineteen. If you took that national championship
• 37:22
  Speaker 17: team that played great, great run, and you look at
• 37:26
  Speaker 17: the personnel and the sign like Kyle Guy and Jerome
• 37:29
  Speaker 17: Ti Jerome, and if you look at that roster against these.
• 37:33
  Speaker 13: Rosters that are going tonight, it'd be no contest, be
• 37:36
  Speaker 13: no contest. Virginia would not be in this league. They
• 37:39
  Speaker 13: would not even be in the same couldn't even be
• 37:41
  Speaker 13: in the same floor with these two teams that are
• 37:44
  Speaker 13: going at it tonight. So you're basically.
• 37:46
  Speaker 17: Getting a real high level of professional Well, you're getting
• 37:51
  Speaker 17: a very solid level I won't say high level.
• 37:53
  Speaker 13: You're getting a solid level of basketball tonight.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Men taking on men in a manly way. Thank you right.

  Speaker 16: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
• 38:04
  Speaker 16: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
• 38:08
  Speaker 16: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
• 38:11
  Speaker 16: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
• 38:15
  Speaker 16: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
• 38:19
  Speaker 16: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
• 38:22
  Speaker 16: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
• 38:26
  Speaker 16: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
• 38:29
  Speaker 16: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
• 38:33
  Speaker 16: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
• 38:37
  Speaker 16: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
• 38:41
  Speaker 16: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
• 38:45
  Speaker 16: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
• 38:49
  Speaker 16: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
• 38:52
  Speaker 16: yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves
• 38:55

• 39:09
  Speaker 23: actually three known gases. I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric oxide
• 39:14
  Speaker 23: is a gas that's readily made all day long to
• 39:19
  Speaker 23: keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 39:23
  Speaker 23: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
• 39:28
  Speaker 23: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 39:33
  Speaker 23: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 39:36
  Speaker 23: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 39:40
  Speaker 23: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in

• 40:37
  Speaker 26: than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
• 40:42

  Speaker 26: illnesses that can cause misdays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 40:49
  Speaker 26: New macccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 40:53
  Speaker 26: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 40:57
  Speaker 26: of an infection that can spread from person to person.

  Speaker 1: What is the worst enemy of liberty? It is loyalty
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: to party over nation? And how many times have we
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: talked about this ambivalence? We have to two political parties
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: that behave as if they are constitutionally authorized to be
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: the fourth and fifth branches of our government. Cunning, ambitious
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: and unprincipled men would usurp for themselves the reigns of government,
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: destroying afterwards the very engines that had lifted them to
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: unjust dominion. George Washington on the danger of political faction
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: political parties, And it's not that political parties are dangerous,
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: it's when they become guaranteed of their position, right when
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: they are the kingmakers. You must kiss their ring. Much
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: of what we're watching in Washington, Republican and Democrat alike,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: is because Trump didn't come from withinside their ranks. He
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: didn't rise up, he didn't spend twenty years helping the
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Republicans' fundraise and then said, you know, I think I
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: should be president to everyone in the world. Yeah, we've
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: been trying to tell you that for years, Don But
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: because he just dropped in out of the sky and
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: said yeah, if I had that understandably made some people mad.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: And I got this text message from Adam, who heard
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: us talking earlier with doctor Clark. I guess, gosh, was
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: it an hour ago already? Adam? I appreciate the text,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: but he said, are you trying to tell us the
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Pentagon operates the same way or radio station does. I
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: cannot believe that people at the Pentagon would take such
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: a view of somebody like Pete. Hegseith coming in trying
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: to change things. These are serious men doing serious jobs
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: show not a bunch of people who are avoiding real
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: work by spinning records all day. I appreciate what you're
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: trying to say about how the government is pushing back
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: against Donald Trump. I think it's deeper than that. I
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: think they're being paid to do so, and that this
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: is much more dire than just a bunch of people
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: who don't want to be told that the way they've
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: been doing it is wrong. Where to begin with this, Adam?
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: First off, I agree with you. I agree with you
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: that there are people who are being paid to be agitators,
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: but it's not all of them. See, here's the thing
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: about these kind of campaigns. As much as much money
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: as George Soros and Bill Gates have, as much money
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: as the World Economic Forum can throw at a government
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: to make sure that its leadership is on boards with
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: the World Economic Forum's view of global socialism, they can't
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: pay everybody. So what you have to do is you
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: pay the people who can trigger the rest of the dominoes. So,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: first off, we are all human, and we all come
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: wired with the seven deadly vices, whether we put a
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: uniform on or not. So the idea that the attitude
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: of a radio station disc jockey when being confronted with
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: some new way to operate their radio station or perhaps
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: a reminder of the old way when they first started
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: out to serve their customers better, is not an inapt
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: comparison just because somebody has a rank in the US
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: Armed Forces and works in perhaps the biggest bureaucracy in Washington,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: and with the exception of the dress clothes, really no
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: different than the EPA or the Department of Education. That, yes,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: there are members of the Pentagon hierarchy. Beenman who can
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: get that knows how to joint because they had their
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: careers attached to particular ways of doing things. And that's
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: really the key. It's not that they have some intellectual
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: opposition to change. It's that they have built their career
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: around the things staying the same, and that if things
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: change all of a sudden, all that work they put
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: into building the ladder on which they're going to climb
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: to their view of success has been rent asunder. And
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: now they're mad, You've just cost me how many years
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: it took me to build this ladder of success and
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: now you come and kick it over. Well, I'll show you.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: I didn't spend twenty years climbing this bureaucratic ladder with
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: my face fully between somebody else's cheeks just to have
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: to go back to square one and start all over again.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: And Adam, I don't want to disabuse you of it.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: And I'm not saying you're wrong that there aren't people
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: with money here. But the people with money only have
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: enough to find those who will motivate, and so they
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: go looking for the disaffected. They go looking for those
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: who are already ben out of shape because Ted Pete
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Hegsith came in there, and who the hell is this guy?
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: And my boss was much more qualified for this, because
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: I've had my face firmly planted between his buttocks for
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: twenty years now, and I think my boss should have
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: been the new boss. And don't you tell me different,
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: because he knows how we do things here at the Pentagon.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: He knows where the five thousand dollars hammers are sold.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Change is good. Change comes when things like the Republican
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: and Democrat Party aren't guaranteed some odd position that's as
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: unconstitutional as anything and perhaps the root of all the
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: unconstitutionality in Washington and our public representation, and the peril
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: is that they're playing with real fire. Unlike our parents' generation,
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: when they could sit there and read William F. Buckley
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: and Rishild listened to Rush Limbaugh on the radio. The
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: peril of the pending collapse of the dollar and our
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: economy is much more real. And what comes next is
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: not good. And the setups and all the things we
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: talk about, the setting us up for at some point
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: feeling like, you know what, voting against the constitution, voting
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: to change the constitution that makes sense. This is all
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: the gas lighting so that when you're finally asked on
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: some election day, do you support a constitutional convention to
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: write a new US governing constitution, you'll vote yes. And
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: that's not the same as the Convention of States. It's
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: exactly the opposite of the Convention of States. This is
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: part of why they have to gaslight you on the
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: Convention of States, because they want you to support the
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: idea of getting rid of a constitution rather than fixing
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: the one we have. They want you to believe, as
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama believed, the US Constitution is a failed and
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: flawed document, not the thing that created the five thousand
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: year leap in human history. So I appreciated Adam, and
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. We'd like to think that
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: men in general's uniforms are to a higher standard than
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: your average grab astic DJ, but at some point we
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: are all the same. In today's troubled world, our USA
