Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
- 0:08Speaker 1: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Joe works at the steel mill, works damn near every day.
- 0:15Speaker 3: Leaves for work when the sun comes.
- 0:17Speaker 4: Up, drops the kids to school and all the work.
- 0:21Speaker 3: Joe has everything he dreamed of, all the treasures that
- 0:24Speaker 3: he needs.
- 0:25Speaker 5: No wonder Joe's always smiling, he only.
- 0:29Speaker 6: Aims to please you.
- 0:32Speaker 7: Let me be your Joe.
- 0:34Speaker 8: You did it, didn't you? You forgot.
- 0:36Speaker 9: I want to be your Joe.
- 0:39Speaker 8: I know. I know it's been busy. I know. But
- 0:45Speaker 8: how many weeks have we been doing Tedstee? Like two
- 0:50Speaker 8: or three hundred weeks of Tedstee and you completely forgot. And,
- 0:56Speaker 8: you know, people will complain because people get into, you know, habits,
- 1:03Speaker 8: into rituals, and it is the national anthem, so... Ah.
- 1:31Speaker 8: You know, they say if you want something done right,
- 1:33Speaker 8: you have to do it yourself. Actually, what that means
- 1:36Speaker 8: is there's nobody there to tell you you did it wrong.
- 1:40Speaker 8: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
- 1:43Speaker 8: this morning. 434-882-4217 is the phone number. Obviously, the president's
- 1:50Speaker 8: address to the UN. Chairman Xi coming to Washington today.
- 1:56Speaker 8: Zelinsky saying, looks like we'll be done by winter. Autumn
- 2:00Speaker 8: is here already. How's autumn been treating you so far?
- 2:04Speaker 8: Not even 10 hours into autumn, and the guy's already saying,
- 2:07Speaker 8: are you leaf peeping yet? Oh, the New England states,
- 2:11Speaker 8: come for the foliage. I like the fact that when
- 2:17Speaker 8: there's not foliage to come look at, there are still
- 2:20Speaker 8: news stories you can enterprise about whether or not there'll
- 2:24Speaker 8: be foliage to look at. As if somehow trees decide
- 2:28Speaker 8: whether or not to go dormant for the winter based on,
- 2:33Speaker 8: I don't know, tourism? Do they call the Chamber of
- 2:37Speaker 8: Commerce and say, hey, how are the tourism dollars this year?
- 2:40Speaker 8: There's And if I may, our flagship state of Virginia
- 2:45Speaker 8: has great foliage, but you're not going to be getting
- 2:48Speaker 8: that for like another month or so before you start
- 2:52Speaker 8: seeing any of that. But of course, there are the
- 2:54Speaker 8: meteorologic experts who will tell you that, oh, you know, well,
- 2:59Speaker 8: it's been a rainy, you know, they'll have a reason,
- 3:03Speaker 8: some rationale for why it either is or isn't going
- 3:06Speaker 8: to be a good year for foliage. As if that
- 3:10Speaker 8: means anything, I don't know. If you're making your tourism
- 3:13Speaker 8: budget on that, sorry for you. President Trump said U.S.
- 3:19Speaker 8: and Iranian officials leading off our first things this morning
- 3:22Speaker 8: met Tuesday in an unexpected engagement at the U.N. after
- 3:29Speaker 8: he threatened in his address that he might annihilate the
- 3:32Speaker 8: Islamic Republic if a deal isn't reached soon. Trump told
- 3:36Speaker 8: reporters yesterday afternoon that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner His
- 3:41Speaker 8: chief envoys met for three hours with Iranian officials yesterday
- 3:45Speaker 8: at the United Nations, which I guess is technically why
- 3:48Speaker 8: the United Nations exists. But he offered few details to
- 3:54Speaker 8: the press. It was a very good meeting, he said.
- 3:58Speaker 8: He said the Iranian officials were not, quote, the highest level,
- 4:03Speaker 8: but it's something. President Trump, as promised, signed the agreement
- 4:08Speaker 8: with leaders of Denmark and Greenland aimed at giving the
- 4:13Speaker 8: United States security control over the autonomous island, which will
- 4:18Speaker 8: remain part of Denmark. However, the agreement does stipulate it
- 4:24Speaker 8: will still apply if Greenland eventually chooses independence. President Trump
- 4:30Speaker 8: said this is tremendous for Europe and for the United
- 4:33Speaker 8: States and for everybody. And for Greenland, it's going to
- 4:37Speaker 8: be incredible. When Chairman Xi arrives in Washington today, he's
- 4:44Speaker 8: going to be greeted at the airport by President Trump,
- 4:49Speaker 8: who will be on the tarmac to welcome the plane
- 4:52Speaker 8: instead of waiting for him at the White House. According
- 4:55Speaker 8: to the administration, Trump's decision to meet Xi at Andrews
- 5:00Speaker 8: Air Force Base is a show of how far the U.S.
- 5:06Speaker 8: president is going to honor China's leader as he makes
- 5:10Speaker 8: his first state visit in more than a decade. A
- 5:14Speaker 8: federal judge in Rhode Island struck down a Trump administration
- 5:18Speaker 8: directive that would have barred some immigrants from accessing some
- 5:23Speaker 8: federal programs, including Head Start, because the program might, under
- 5:29Speaker 8: the view of U.S. District Judge Mary McElroy, be applied
- 5:37Speaker 8: to people who are covered under DACA or temporary protected
- 5:43Speaker 8: status as dictated by the Biden administration. And a Utah
- 5:48Speaker 8: Postal Service letter carrier is in trouble after throwing out
- 5:52Speaker 8: 300 mail-in ballots in June's primary. And those are some
- 5:57Speaker 8: of our first things this morning. Entries continue to come
- 6:02Speaker 8: in on our Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Now it's autumn. You have
- 6:07Speaker 8: no excuse. You can't say, well, Joe, it's still summer.
- 6:10Speaker 8: You can go see Trans-Siberian Orchestra in the city where
- 6:13Speaker 8: you live. They're our old friends and will be going
- 6:18Speaker 8: to the show because it's a family tradition for the
- 6:20Speaker 8: Thomas family. But I want to share it with you
- 6:24Speaker 8: in cities all across the country where, first thing today,

- 8:03Speaker 10: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:12Speaker 10: I'm Dr.
- 8:13Speaker 11: Mitch.
- 8:14Speaker 10: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 10: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 8:24Speaker 10: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:28Speaker 10: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:32Speaker 10: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 8:39Speaker 10: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 8:43Speaker 10: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 8:47Speaker 10: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 8:52Speaker 10: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,
- 8:57Speaker 10: feel good, and enjoy total wellness.
- 9:02Speaker 12: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 9:05Speaker 12: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 12: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 9:13Speaker 12: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 9:16Speaker 12: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 9:21Speaker 12: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:25Speaker 12: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:29Speaker 12: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 9:33Speaker 12: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 9:37Speaker 12: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 9:42Speaker 12: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 9:46Speaker 12: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov
- 9:53Speaker 12: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 13: Hi, everybody.
- 9:59Speaker 14: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
- 10:01Speaker 14: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 14: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 14: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:08Speaker 14: birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 14: who work hard to provide for their young. Or penguins,
- 10:15Speaker 14: who travel up to 500 miles to secure food for
- 10:17Speaker 14: their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump allows them
- 10:21Speaker 14: to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
- 10:23Speaker 14: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
- 10:26Speaker 14: the canines. We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home,
- 10:30Speaker 14: but because of their acute senses, they also perform lifesaving
- 10:33Speaker 14: work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They
- 10:36Speaker 14: comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They
- 10:39Speaker 14: work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in
- 10:42Speaker 14: their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly
- 10:44Speaker 14: trained roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
- 10:47Speaker 14: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
- 10:50Speaker 14: heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
- 10:53Speaker 14: planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.
- 10:59Speaker 15: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 11:01Speaker 16: Oh, yeah?
- 11:01Speaker 9: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:04Speaker 17: And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 2: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 8: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 14: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 11:15Speaker 2: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 11:18Speaker 2: somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 9: Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 11: Me too.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 11:23Speaker 3: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:28Speaker 18: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:31Speaker 18: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 18: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 18: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:42Speaker 18: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 11:46Speaker 18: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 11:51Speaker 18: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 11:54Speaker 18: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 11:58Speaker 18: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 12:00Speaker 18: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 12:04Speaker 18: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 12:07Speaker 18: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 12:11Speaker 18: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 12:14Speaker 18: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving
- 12:18Speaker 18: money by reducing your energy waste, check out ftc.gov slash green.

- 12:27Speaker 18: protection agency.
- 12:29Speaker 19: As a family member or friend, you may be the
- 12:32Speaker 19: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 19: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:40Speaker 19: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.

- 13:16Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:25Speaker 8: You're having all kinds of trouble with it today. Yeah,
- 13:28Speaker 8: that's the one. It's real simple. It's Ted's D. They're
- 13:37Speaker 8: all under the letter T.
- 13:39Speaker 9: Sister, my sister's gonna take my hand.
- 13:43Speaker 4: Lead me over to the promised land.
- 13:57Speaker 8: You know, I was the one that was up late
- 13:58Speaker 8: last night on TV. So President Trump at the United
- 14:09Speaker 8: Nations yesterday, oh, that's what it was? You were going
- 14:14Speaker 8: to pull out Vince Vance? Not on a Ted Steve.
- 14:18Speaker 8: Maybe later.
- 14:19Speaker 1: But I have a big decision to make.
- 14:22Speaker 5: Will a deal be made with Iran? that lets them
- 14:27Speaker 5: rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever
- 14:31Speaker 5: was before. Maybe one of the greatest in the Middle
- 14:35Speaker 5: East or even the world. Or do I annihilate the
- 14:39Speaker 5: Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a
- 14:43Speaker 5: chance to kill and destroy people and countries again?
- 14:47Speaker 8: It's a pretty clear message from his UN address yesterday.
- 14:56Speaker 8: And what's interesting is, according to the president, and this
- 14:59Speaker 8: is what folks like Jake Tapper, and oh, we'll get
- 15:04Speaker 8: to Jake Tapper later in the program. So, according to
- 15:12Speaker 8: the president, shortly after that statement, the Iranian ambassadors there,
- 15:19Speaker 8: the representatives at the UN, got into a room with
- 15:23Speaker 8: Jared Kushner, and Steve Witkoff and said, are we talking
- 15:31Speaker 8: or what? And the way it's playing out, this is
- 15:36Speaker 8: purely pattern recognition. But the way it is playing out
- 15:41Speaker 8: from where I sit, this is still an instance where
- 15:46Speaker 8: the political leaders of Iran after 40 years of having
- 15:54Speaker 8: their strings pulled by the Ayatollah and the mullahs, the
- 15:59Speaker 8: council of experts, are in the crosshairs, if you will.
- 16:13Speaker 8: They are the ones who want to make a deal,
- 16:18Speaker 8: are being begged by their, quote, constituents, if you can
- 16:21Speaker 8: make that application to a country where Basically, people are told,
- 16:25Speaker 8: here are your three choices. Go pick one. And do
- 16:35Speaker 8: they respond to them or the Ayatollah? And the very
- 16:46Speaker 8: end of President Trump's statement there says it all. This
- 16:49Speaker 8: is a country that has been paying other people You know,
- 16:56Speaker 8: I was talking to a friend, gosh, two, three weeks
- 17:00Speaker 8: ago about this. And I told him, I said, this
- 17:06Speaker 8: is what the RICO statutes were written for internally in
- 17:15Speaker 8: the United States. So a mobster like a John Gotti.
- 17:25Speaker 8: could sit there running an olive oil importation business, hire
- 17:35Speaker 8: people through social clubs and myriad of money laundering fronts
- 17:44Speaker 8: to cover his connection to it, take money, pay somebody
- 17:51Speaker 8: to go kill someone else because they were rivals. because
- 17:56Speaker 8: they were muscling in on his type. And then if
- 18:02Speaker 8: the police came, I never hired anyone to kill anyone,
- 18:08Speaker 8: because it was done two, three, four rungs down the ladder.
- 18:14Speaker 8: And the RICO statutes were written so that a criminal
- 18:18Speaker 8: enterprise could round up all of those involved in the enterprise.
- 18:26Speaker 8: And fairly or not, if you were just a bartender
- 18:30Speaker 8: at a social club that happened to be owned by
- 18:33Speaker 8: the Corleone crime family, you could get arrested for being
- 18:38Speaker 8: part of the organization. It was designed to push whistleblowers
- 18:44Speaker 8: into federal protection to say, listen, you're going to go
- 18:48Speaker 8: down whether you did anything wrong or not because you're
- 18:51Speaker 8: part of the team. It's like maybe not every Houston
- 18:56Speaker 8: Astro was stealing signs back in 2018, but, you know,
- 19:05Speaker 8: everyone got blamed for it. Everyone got tagged for it.
- 19:15Speaker 11: What?
- 19:17Speaker 8: Too obscure? Michigan would be a better? All right, so
- 19:21Speaker 8: maybe the guy at Michigan wasn't stealing everyone's signs. But
- 19:26Speaker 8: some assistant coach could go down for it. But the
- 19:28Speaker 8: RICO statutes, if you want to draw an application that
- 19:33Speaker 8: we hear about more frequently, this is what Iran has
- 19:36Speaker 8: been doing. They are the metaphorical Don Corleone. I'm just
- 19:42Speaker 8: a businessman. And they would sit there saying, RICO? didn't
- 19:50Speaker 8: bomb your Marine Corps base. No. This is crazy Hezbollah.
- 19:59Speaker 8: We don't know what Hamas is doing. No, we're just here.
- 20:02Speaker 8: We're being sanctioned. We can't... And there's... Of course, the
- 20:11Speaker 8: geopolitical bigger picture as Chairman Xi arrives later today to
- 20:19Speaker 8: a presidential greeting on the tarmac. Iran's connection to China.
- 20:35Speaker 8: Because That's going to be the bigger part of this
- 20:45Speaker 8: game of 3D chess. All of these things, without firing
- 20:59Speaker 8: a shot, because China, one of the things that the international...
- 21:06Speaker 8: community is clear about is that through all of this, China,
- 21:13Speaker 8: US has been using our military all over the place.
- 21:16Speaker 8: We're pretty well practiced at it now. China hasn't had
- 21:24Speaker 8: to fire a shot at anyone. You happy now? So
- 21:32Speaker 8: frustrated that he wanted to use this This is the
- 21:35Speaker 8: entree to this segment. Maybe one of the greatest in
- 21:41Speaker 8: the Middle East or even the world.
- 21:43Speaker 19: Or do I.
- 21:43Speaker 5: Annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving
- 21:47Speaker 5: them a chance?
- 22:02Speaker 10: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 22:07Speaker 10: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch and nitric
- 22:12Speaker 10: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 22:17Speaker 10: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 22:21Speaker 10: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
- 22:27Speaker 10: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 22:31Speaker 10: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 22:34Speaker 10: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 22:38Speaker 10: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in

- 25:54Speaker 15: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 25:56Speaker 16: Oh, yeah?
- 25:57Speaker 7: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 25:59Speaker 17: And now a speech.
- 26:02Speaker 2: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 26:05Speaker 10: Heart and brain.
- 26:07Speaker 8: Who's with me?
- 26:08Speaker 14: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 26:10Speaker 2: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 26:13Speaker 2: somebody call me a ride.
- 26:15Speaker 15: Love that guy.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Me too.
- 26:16Speaker 3: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 26:19Speaker 3: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 26:23Speaker 18: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 26:25Speaker 18: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 26:29Speaker 18: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 26:34Speaker 18: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 26:36Speaker 18: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 26:40Speaker 18: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 26:46Speaker 18: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 26:49Speaker 18: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 18: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 18: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 26:58Speaker 18: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 27:02Speaker 18: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 27:05Speaker 18: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 27:09Speaker 18: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

- 28:15Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas.
- 28:18Speaker 11: On the Talk Media Network.
- 28:22Speaker 5: We don't need no thank you. The United States also
- 28:49Speaker 5: totally rejects any attempt to construct a globalist scheme to
- 28:52Speaker 5: control for the artificial intelligence being spoken of so much now,
- 28:59Speaker 5: here and after officially called super intelligence, changing the name.
- 29:05Speaker 5: Super intelligence, every major new technology brings challenges, and super
- 29:10Speaker 5: intelligence is no exception.
- 29:14Speaker 8: That's President Trump from yesterday's address to the United Nations
- 29:20Speaker 8: about AI and just what we were talking about yesterday.
- 29:23Speaker 8: This is all the same stuff that the globe wanted
- 29:26Speaker 8: to do about the Soviet Union and the United States
- 29:30Speaker 8: mutually assured destruction. They wanted all of us, if let's
- 29:35Speaker 8: say India had 20 nuclear missiles, they wanted the United
- 29:40Speaker 8: States and the Soviet Union to step down to 20
- 29:42Speaker 8: nuclear missiles so that they could start World War III
- 29:50Speaker 8: more easily if they so chose. And so there's a reason,
- 29:55Speaker 8: you know, and now it's China and the United States,
- 29:58Speaker 8: though I believe Russia is still a player in this
- 30:02Speaker 8: because of their tech, their ability. I mean, St. Petersburg
- 30:07Speaker 8: is a slightly less climatologically welcoming area as Silicon Valley,
- 30:18Speaker 8: yet still full of tech people, perhaps. outside of the
- 30:23Speaker 8: United States, second only, as I've been told by folks,
- 30:26Speaker 8: to Tel Aviv in terms of the technical expertise, oh,
- 30:33Speaker 8: they people. Speaking of not there for his tech, but
- 30:37Speaker 8: there for other reasons, he is our friend Bob in
- 30:40Speaker 8: Moscow this morning. Good morning, Bob. How are you doing, sir?
- 30:45Speaker 11: Good morning. Doing well. Nice autumn days.
- 30:48Speaker 8: First day of. I mean, we're 10 hours into autumn
- 30:51Speaker 8: and I already saw two stories out of New England
- 30:53Speaker 8: about leaf peeping tourism and what people are expecting. And
- 31:00Speaker 8: there's one meteorologist saying, I don't know, we had a
- 31:03Speaker 8: lot of rain, so we may not have good leaf
- 31:06Speaker 8: peeping this year. Everyone's got to have a story.
- 31:09Speaker 11: And for us, autumn starts on September 1st.
- 31:16Speaker 8: Just automatically?
- 31:16Speaker 11: The seasons change on the 1st.
- 31:18Speaker 5: Yep.
- 31:19Speaker 8: Okay.
- 31:19Speaker 11: The seasons change. That's most of Europe, too.
- 31:25Speaker 8: You know, it's... Why watch the sun? Why listen to
- 31:31Speaker 8: Earth Mother?
- 31:32Speaker 11: September, December, March, and June 1st are when the seasons change.
- 31:39Speaker 8: All right. Well, you know, the government's got to do
- 31:40Speaker 8: what the government's got to do. I'm glad somebody's looking
- 31:43Speaker 8: after the planet.
- 31:43Speaker 11: Well, that's all of Europe. That's all of Europe.
- 31:45Speaker 8: I know. I'm not saying.
- 31:48Speaker 11: Getting to the Houthis in the Strait of Hormuz, everyone's
- 31:52Speaker 11: missing an important item. Where are they getting their weapons from?
- 31:57Speaker 11: Let's see, the Taliban, when they overthrew, what's his name, Assad,
- 32:03Speaker 11: they were getting their weapons from cranes, their missiles and
- 32:08Speaker 11: their drones.
- 32:12Speaker 8: So are the Houthis through the Taliban?
- 32:16Speaker 11: Yep, are the Houthis through the Taliban getting their weapons
- 32:21Speaker 11: from Ukraine? So they're basically getting Ukrainian or NATO weapons
- 32:25Speaker 11: to use against NATO.
- 32:27Speaker 8: Well, that's been the problem all along. I mean, when
- 32:29Speaker 8: the Taliban first rebranded itself from the Mujahideen, they were
- 32:34Speaker 8: shooting American rifles at us. When I have said in
- 32:38Speaker 8: the past, if we really believe in the Second Amendment—
- 32:41Speaker 8: The first thing we would do when we liberate one
- 32:43Speaker 8: of these countries is give everyone a gun. And believe
- 32:46Speaker 8: it or not, I believe Ukraine is a great example
- 32:49Speaker 8: of why our Second Amendment is important. Because this two-week
- 32:55Speaker 8: invasion has been going on for four and a half
- 32:57Speaker 8: years because the Ukrainian citizens... along with the soldiers, have
- 33:01Speaker 8: been able to fight back. But when I would say
- 33:06Speaker 8: stuff like that, people would say, oh, our soldiers will
- 33:09Speaker 8: just get shot at with guns, you know, American guns.
- 33:12Speaker 8: I didn't say the soldiers would stay there. Let them
- 33:15Speaker 8: sort it out. Once we've armed the citizens, let them
- 33:17Speaker 8: sort it out. They can figure out who should be
- 33:20Speaker 8: in charge. But the bigger question is always who's arming who,
- 33:25Speaker 8: because it's the proxy war virus that catches us. Oh,
- 33:34Speaker 8: I don't want to fight somebody. But if I pay
- 33:36Speaker 8: one of these groups to fight them for me, Joe,
- 33:40Speaker 8: this is the point about Iran that Trump made in
- 33:42Speaker 8: his speech is they've been sitting there in Tehran. Oh,
- 33:46Speaker 8: we didn't do that. Hamas did that. Oh, the Houthis
- 33:50Speaker 8: did that. Oh, Hezbollah did that. Meanwhile, they've been the one,
- 33:55Speaker 8: even if they're buying their missiles from Ukraine, They're doing
- 33:59Speaker 8: them with dollars, U.S. dollars that they got from Iran. So,
- 34:04Speaker 8: you know, we.
- 34:04Speaker 11: Got to stop. The question is, if supposedly all these attacks,
- 34:13Speaker 11: we basically demolished Iranian emissions and with all the sanctions
- 34:20Speaker 11: supposedly on Iran and the limits on shipping, how are
- 34:24Speaker 11: the Houthis getting their weapons from Iran? It'd be literally
- 34:28Speaker 11: impossible for them to be continually getting supplies from Iran
- 34:33Speaker 11: because the CIA, the US government would know and see
- 34:37Speaker 11: where it's actually being transported to. So obviously they're getting
- 34:41Speaker 11: it from someplace other than Iran and no one's saying anything.
- 34:46Speaker 11: So it's like, are the Houthis getting these weapons from
- 34:50Speaker 11: covert CIA operations because the United States wants the Strait
- 34:55Speaker 11: of Humboldt and all this to go on because this
- 34:57Speaker 11: way the United States can get control of all the
- 34:59Speaker 11: oil and shut down everyone.
- 35:01Speaker 8: I don't think that's the goal of, you know, getting,
- 35:06Speaker 8: getting control of the oil. I think they want the
- 35:08Speaker 8: Strait open. Um, and if they do anything other than that,
- 35:12Speaker 8: I think that's patently un-American world, you know, um, statecraft,
- 35:17Speaker 8: if you will. And it would be pretty obvious to everyone,
- 35:21Speaker 8: and I think that would be pretty clear if we
- 35:27Speaker 8: didn't want free trade. And one of the things that's
- 35:32Speaker 8: being left out of all these discussions about Iran is
- 35:35Speaker 8: that they are willing to accept the idea that the
- 35:39Speaker 8: Strait of Hormuz for a shipping lane, at least, if
- 35:42Speaker 8: not two, I think that's the sticking point, will be
- 35:46Speaker 8: considered international waters, even though they've always claimed that 12-mile
- 35:52Speaker 8: overlay of it, which puts them into Oman. So it's
- 36:00Speaker 8: always been, oh, this is like saying, well, the Mississippi
- 36:04Speaker 8: River is international waters. It's crazy, but that's what they're
- 36:09Speaker 8: claiming is that this international waterway is ostensibly a river
- 36:15Speaker 8: going through Iran. And that's one of the biggest issues
- 36:19Speaker 8: that we have to address here is that. But I
- 36:22Speaker 8: think it's money. I think it's money that Iran in
- 36:26Speaker 8: its position in the brick bank has been able to
- 36:30Speaker 8: pull in from Chairman Xi and Putin, because remember, Putin
- 36:35Speaker 8: has also been a big supporter of Iran. and Brazil,
- 36:41Speaker 8: and maybe India. South Africa.
- 36:46Speaker 11: Then why isn't the United States protecting the land routes
- 36:50Speaker 11: and the land pipelines for Saudi Arabia so the oil
- 36:54Speaker 11: can ship like Saudi Arabia's trying to do and circumvent
- 36:57Speaker 11: the Strait of Hormuz?
- 36:59Speaker 8: Well, I think one's just being built, and one got struck,
- 37:02Speaker 8: but it's back up and running by now. I read
- 37:05Speaker 8: a story that said it would be back up and
- 37:06Speaker 8: running this week.
- 37:07Speaker 5: But why....
- 37:09Speaker 11: But why isn't the United States helping protect those routes?
- 37:13Speaker 11: Because it's very important to the United States if Saudi
- 37:17Speaker 11: Arabia can get all the oil out through a different means.
- 37:21Speaker 8: I think your premise is that one strike against a
- 37:25Speaker 8: pipeline indicates that we aren't protecting them. Why wouldn't Iran
- 37:31Speaker 8: be shooting at all of the pipelines? And there's already
- 37:35Speaker 8: a new one being constructed. through, I'm trying to remember
- 37:40Speaker 8: the country, but we're coming up on a break here.
- 37:44Speaker 11: Yep, I'll let you go.
- 37:45Speaker 8: But finish your thought.
- 37:46Speaker 11: It's really interesting. Well, I just am wondering what the
- 37:51Speaker 11: end game is, because you would think there'd be more
- 37:56Speaker 11: protection for.
- 38:01Speaker 22: At Hot Shot Secret, we share the science behind common
- 38:04Speaker 22: diesel problems and their solutions.
- 38:06Speaker 8: For example, diesel fuel cetane levels.
- 38:08Speaker 22: In many states, the cetane rating in diesel fuel is
- 38:11Speaker 22: 42 to 45. Most diesel engines operate more efficiently with
- 38:15Speaker 22: a cetane rating of 48 to 50. One treatment of
- 38:18Speaker 22: Hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your cetane seven points,
- 38:21Speaker 22: increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts. Due to a
- 38:25Speaker 22: cleaner burn, there are less hydrocarbons and particulate matter in
- 38:28Speaker 22: your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of your diesel particulate filter.
- 38:32Speaker 22: Using Diesel Extreme generates 83% less DPF regenerations. The 6-in-1
- 38:38Speaker 22: Diesel Extreme formula also includes the most concentrated detergent on
- 38:42Speaker 22: the market, lubricity enhancer, water demulsifier, rust and corrosion inhibitors,
- 38:47Speaker 22: and a fuel stabilizer.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme is available nationwide at truck stops,
- 38:52Speaker 1: fine farm and auto stores, and online at hotshotsecret.com.

- 40:57Speaker 17: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
- 41:02Speaker 17: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 17: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 17: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 17: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 17: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 17: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 17: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 17: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 41:36Speaker 17: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

- 44:17Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network. Leave your cares.
- 44:25Speaker 17: Behind.
- 44:26Speaker 19: Come with us and find the pleasures.
- 44:29Speaker 8: Of a journey to the center of the mind.
- 44:35Speaker 13: Come along if you can.
- 44:35Speaker 8: See, that's the thing about Ted Steege. It is a
- 44:40Speaker 8: journey to the center of your mind. And, you know,
- 44:47Speaker 8: one of the things about it is that people misunderstand.
- 44:50Speaker 8: It's not just about guitars and music. It's about knowing
- 44:55Speaker 8: what God has gifted you to do, figuring that out,
- 44:59Speaker 8: becoming expert at it, and then doing it with all
- 45:02Speaker 8: the zeal of somebody who's just doing something that they
- 45:06Speaker 8: couldn't help but do because it's what they were put
- 45:09Speaker 8: here on this earth to do. And then you're living,
- 45:15Speaker 8: what's the phrase? Living your best life. You're living your
- 45:22Speaker 8: best life there. And so that's the secret to a Tedstee,
- 45:29Speaker 8: is the journey to the center of your mind there,
- 45:32Speaker 8: metaphorically speaking. And while we're in here, let me address
- 45:39Speaker 8: One of the things, and Tom Clancy is somewhat to
- 45:41Speaker 8: blame for this, is that we have, I think, in
- 45:52Speaker 8: Bob's phone call, not pecking on it, but it's indicative
- 45:56Speaker 8: of a belief that if Iran has a drone that
- 46:03Speaker 8: it can send into Qatar, We should be able to
- 46:08Speaker 8: see it and shoot it down before it gets there.
- 46:13Speaker 8: And I know that the Iron Dome is terrific at
- 46:18Speaker 8: responding to, but the missile has to be launched first.
- 46:22Speaker 8: And you have to find it. You have to triangulate
- 46:25Speaker 8: on it. You have to do something about it. And
- 46:27Speaker 8: it gets close. And there are a lot of missiles
- 46:30Speaker 8: that make it through the Iron Dome.
- 46:32Speaker 11: It triages.
- 46:33Speaker 8: It triages. You know, what's is it coming near? Is
- 46:37Speaker 8: it going to just land in the desert? That kind
- 46:39Speaker 8: of thing. So when when you see that Iran sends
- 46:45Speaker 8: a drone and it hits an oil pipeline, our press says, oh,
- 46:49Speaker 8: Saudi Arabia oil pipeline shut down by Iranian drone attack.
- 46:53Speaker 8: And the imagery that's created in your head is a
- 46:57Speaker 8: giant ball of fire and two pieces of pipe sitting,
- 47:01Speaker 8: you know, side by each side. never to be connected again.
- 47:08Speaker 8: When in reality, the pipeline that was struck, I saw
- 47:12Speaker 8: a news story, I think it was Agence France, one
- 47:15Speaker 8: of the French papers said that it struck a junction
- 47:20Speaker 8: station and the damage was more to the control room
- 47:25Speaker 8: that managed one of the junction points or something like that.
- 47:29Speaker 8: So it was shut down so that the oil just
- 47:32Speaker 8: didn't go wherever it felt like going. And it's been reopened.
- 47:39Speaker 8: You know, it certainly takes a while to fix that
- 47:41Speaker 8: kind of stuff. But, you know, we all think of
- 47:45Speaker 8: these World War II movies and the German train bridge
- 47:49Speaker 8: blowing up and leaving that whole region of Germany cut off,
- 47:54Speaker 8: which really did happen. But that's not where we are
- 47:57Speaker 8: right now in this scenario with Iran. And, you know,
- 48:02Speaker 8: who knows? Supposedly going to be speaking... Zelensky told Trump
- 48:07Speaker 8: at the UN yesterday, according to Trump, that he wants
- 48:11Speaker 8: to have a deal by the winter. Will it be
- 48:16Speaker 8: considered their winter of discontent? I don't know. But made
- 48:22Speaker 8: warm by that son of New York, maybe there is
- 48:26Speaker 8: peace on the way. What is the deal? What's the capitulation?
- 48:30Speaker 8: Because we've been so long in this two-week excursion of
- 48:34Speaker 8: Russian troops into Ukraine, four and a half years later
- 48:38Speaker 8: into their two-week invasion. I think a lot of people
- 48:42Speaker 8: have forgotten the whys and the Obama-Biden administration's manipulations that
- 48:49Speaker 8: caused all this. But again, it doesn't give you the right.
- 48:56Speaker 8: And people say, well, which side are you on? I said, well,
- 48:58Speaker 8: I don't think Russia had the right to invade Ukraine.
- 49:02Speaker 8: Does that mean Ukraine was rendered innocent?
- 49:07Speaker 11: No.
- 49:08Speaker 8: I mean, I got in huge trouble once. I punched
- 49:10Speaker 8: a kid in the face in middle school, but he
- 49:16Speaker 8: had been tormenting me for months just being just a generalist.
- 49:20Speaker 8: ass and finally I'd had enough it was getting close
- 49:23Speaker 8: to the end of our year and I just turned
- 49:26Speaker 8: around in my chair and caught him on the chin
- 49:28Speaker 8: and he went down I got in trouble for hitting
- 49:31Speaker 8: him but he and I both knew the whys of
- 49:35Speaker 8: the punch was not the beginning of hostilities it was
- 49:40Speaker 8: attempt to punctuate the hostilities. And then, you know, having
- 49:44Speaker 8: learned his lesson, he went on to found the band Anthrax.
- 49:49Speaker 8: So beyond that, let me get to you on the
- 49:51Speaker 8: line at 434-882-4217. True story. Good morning. Who's this?
- 49:56Speaker 1: Hey, Joe.
- 49:58Speaker 7: Good morning. It's Joel.
- 50:00Speaker 8: Yeah, it's my fault. Anthrax, the band, was my fault.
- 50:04Speaker 8: Just so you know, it's a public record.
- 50:08Speaker 7: It's a bovine... Rock disease. No, I'm just kidding.
- 50:12Speaker 8: It's a heck of a rock band, too. What's keeping
- 50:17Speaker 8: you up this morning?
- 50:21Speaker 7: Oh, well, I get up early. I'm still on the Eastern.
- 50:23Speaker 7: I've been here in almost six months, and I still
- 50:26Speaker 7: get up on the Eastern Standard Time.
- 50:28Speaker 8: Early to bed, early to rise. That Franklin guy wasn't wrong.
- 50:34Speaker 7: There's no leaves falling off the cacti, but No.
- 50:38Speaker 8: Fall foliage in Arizona. We come and we watch the
- 50:41Speaker 8: snowbirds get paler. That's what we do.
- 50:47Speaker 7: Yeah, just prickly mesquite trees. I found that out. But anyway,
- 50:52Speaker 7: I just wanted to say this. There's 54 or 56
- 50:58Speaker 7: Muslim nations. And they know what the heck is going
- 51:02Speaker 7: on with Iran. And and and Iran is a death cult.
- 51:07Speaker 7: And I know that a lot of people think Islam
- 51:11Speaker 7: is peaceful and all that other stuff. And I'm not
- 51:13Speaker 7: going to. But it really isn't. It's a submissive, satanic,
- 51:18Speaker 7: pedophile cult.
- 51:19Speaker 8: So what do we do with the tens of millions
- 51:21Speaker 8: of Islamic followers that live in the United States that
- 51:27Speaker 8: that do no harm to anyone?
- 51:33Speaker 7: What I wanted to say with Iran is that their
- 51:37Speaker 7: mission is death. They don't care. They're trying to negotiate
- 51:43Speaker 7: while we're not at the right leader. The Mullahs are
- 51:47Speaker 7: the ones that are still backing the death cult. You
- 51:50Speaker 7: have all these nations that are Muslim that can't even
- 51:59Speaker 7: get along with each other. And I heard Bob talking
- 52:04Speaker 7: about why can't the U.S. defend Saudi Arabia? Well, that's
- 52:07Speaker 7: part of the problem. They have munitions, they have planes,
- 52:12Speaker 7: but they're not going to stick their neck out to
- 52:16Speaker 7: defend themselves unless it gets down to the choke point
- 52:19Speaker 7: for themselves.
- 52:20Speaker 8: Well, I think one of the other... We're coming up
- 52:24Speaker 8: on the news here.
- 52:24Speaker 7: One of those other nations... Okay, real quick, though. When
- 52:28Speaker 7: Jordan had the Patriot missiles, they couldn't fire. We lost
- 52:33Speaker 7: people because they didn't have well-trained, they don't have the
- 52:37Speaker 7: same knowledge as we do with their equipment.
- 52:39Speaker 8: Well, and some of it is because they wanted to
- 52:41Speaker 8: remain that way. But also, I think we're at a
- 52:43Speaker 8: point in the world where the willingness to stand up
- 52:47Speaker 8: against the playground bully in Iran is growing.
- 52:51Speaker 15: Crime across the country is at an all-time high. It
- 52:54Speaker 15: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
- 52:57Speaker 15: We don't want the feeling of being unprotected and vulnerable.
