- 0:01Speaker 1: We've got the big Gulf of America cruise. Scott Jennings
- 0:04Speaker 1: and I are are gonna host listeners in November. We've
- 0:08Speaker 1: already got a number of people from the Dallas Fort
- 0:10Speaker 1: Worth Metroplex signed up. But here is a cautionary tale.
- 0:13Speaker 1: You know what happens with these Salem cruises, and we've
- 0:16Speaker 1: we've learned this with like Alaska with Gorka and we
- 0:19Speaker 1: did and all these different cruises. I get on the ship.
- 0:22Speaker 1: It's the weirdest thing, and people say, Mike, how are
- 0:25Speaker 1: you Can I get a selfie? Sure? Sure, Hey, I'll
- 0:28Speaker 1: see it and on the stage. Oh well, well, no,
- 0:30Speaker 1: we're not with your group. What people do is they
- 0:33Speaker 1: book the week that we're doing the cruise, the listener cruise, yep,
- 0:38Speaker 1: And because they want to save a few bucks, and
- 0:41Speaker 1: then they think they can get on the ship and
- 0:43Speaker 1: get into our events.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Hey, I'm on the ship. All I gotta do is
- 0:46Speaker 2: walk into this room.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Unfortunately, you got to have a badge. You got to
- 0:50Speaker 1: be because look there's a conference fee built into it,
- 0:53Speaker 1: and yeah, you got to pay a little more, but man,
- 0:55Speaker 1: you're gonna get great, great onboard entertainment. Scott Jennings and
- 0:58Speaker 1: I are going to do all these town hall of
- 1:00Speaker 1: Jennifer Horn's coming along this year. So this lady writes
- 1:03Speaker 1: me an email and said, look, I booked this directly
- 1:06Speaker 1: with Holland America, and now I'm told I can't be
- 1:08Speaker 1: part of any of your events and I want to
- 1:11Speaker 1: be part of the events, and it's not fair. And
- 1:13Speaker 1: so I called the Cruisper. They're like, well, sorry, you
- 1:16Speaker 1: gotta you gotta book it through us.
- 1:19Speaker 2: So there's something stalker e about somebody doing the legwork.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I mean, that's some serious Columbo detective work where they
- 1:26Speaker 2: find out what the actual boat is, what the actual
- 1:29Speaker 2: journey is that has you guys on it, so that
- 1:31Speaker 2: they can find a way to slink onto that boat
- 1:34Speaker 2: just as ordinary folk, and somehow infiltrate the realm.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Mark many people do it. It's the weirdest thing because
- 1:41Speaker 1: I remember last time this happened, everybody said, hey, Mike,
- 1:44Speaker 1: I thought, gosh, I'm really popular on this ship. I mean,
- 1:47Speaker 1: these aren't even our people.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Flat and nothing but flattering. I mean, you know, well
- 1:50Speaker 2: it's nice, don't these people let away at sims.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Well, but they look it's not I gotta I got
- 1:57Speaker 1: a joke about this. They station people. They station people
- 2:00Speaker 1: at the door of the theater. You don't get in
- 2:02Speaker 1: without a badge. Well, it's not fair to the people
- 2:05Speaker 1: who did book the trip through US. Yep, you know,
- 2:07Speaker 1: so we got to kind of balance that and I'm sorry,
- 2:09Speaker 1: but anyway, here's go to mic online dot com if
- 2:11Speaker 1: you want to come November fourteenth through the twenty first,
- 2:14Speaker 1: we're going to sail out of Fort Lauderdale. We're gonna
- 2:17Speaker 1: do the Bahamas and the Grand Cayman Islands and Jamaica
- 2:20Speaker 1: and Kazumel And then during the day you guys get
- 2:23Speaker 1: to snorkel and do all the fun stuff. And then
- 2:27Speaker 1: at night we all go to the World Stage, which
- 2:29Speaker 1: is a beautiful state of the art theater. And this
- 2:31Speaker 1: ship is a beautiful ship. I've been on a number
- 2:33Speaker 1: of times. The Eurodan has got a beautiful spa on
- 2:36Speaker 1: board and restaurants even at casino. So it's a great getaway.
- 2:39Speaker 1: It's a great vacation of Mike Callagery, gotcha all the
- 2:42Speaker 1: world's problem. We're going to solve all the world's consent.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Do we have problems to solved? We do.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Speaking of Badge's sixty second story, speaking of people where
- 2:48Speaker 2: you come, you got to wear a badge, something that
- 2:50Speaker 2: signifies that you're with the radio station related travel. Now,
- 2:54Speaker 2: I come back to my Nata, Texas in nineteen ninety
- 2:57Speaker 2: four with the blessing of hopping on to a great
- 2:59Speaker 2: station at on the dial at WVAP, where a guy
- 3:02Speaker 2: named Rush Limbaugh is already firmly ensconced. And we did
- 3:05Speaker 2: the of course he was doing, to rush to excellent stores.
- 3:08Speaker 2: But what we did is a listener trip to New
- 3:11Speaker 2: York to attend to taping of the always wonderful and
- 3:14Speaker 2: underappreciated Rush Limbaugh TV show. You remember when he had
- 3:17Speaker 2: the TV show. And so we took a planeload of
- 3:21Speaker 2: people and we stayed in a midtown Manhattan hotel and
- 3:24Speaker 2: I said it was two days or something like two
- 3:26Speaker 2: two three days, and on one of the evenings, you know,
- 3:28Speaker 2: they would loaded up the bus and took everybody over
- 3:30Speaker 2: to for the Rush Limbaugh taping. Everybody had to this's
- 3:33Speaker 2: the best time. And short of that, it was dinners
- 3:35Speaker 2: and events and I got to hang with listeners and
- 3:36Speaker 2: blah blah blah. So on night number one we gathered
- 3:39Speaker 2: for our first evening out on the town. A lot
- 3:41Speaker 2: of these people never been to New York before, which
- 3:43Speaker 2: made it even more special. So the bus is out front,
- 3:47Speaker 2: and everybody's coming down from the Hyatt whatever in midtown wherever,
- 3:50Speaker 2: and they all pour out, and they all have these
- 3:53Speaker 2: massive buttons that we've given them, you know, with a
- 3:56Speaker 2: station call letters, a big Texas flag, you know, Rush
- 3:59Speaker 2: Limbaugh tour, blah blah blah blah blah. What's the first
- 4:02Speaker 2: thing we told him to do.
- 4:05Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Tell me, get rid of the buttons, don't be the badges.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Don't don't be walking around with those buttons because it
- 4:11Speaker 2: says I'm from Texas, I'm conservative, and I have money.
- 4:15Speaker 2: It's like asking to be muddy stick. It is on
- 4:19Speaker 2: a beach bag for later use or something.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Well, if you're coming on the cruise, keep your badge
- 4:24Speaker 1: on at all times. It's also and it's also helpful
- 4:27Speaker 1: for me because when I'm ambling down at midnight and
- 4:30Speaker 1: in my gym shorts to go to the midnight buffet,
- 4:32Speaker 1: I see you with your badge on. At least I
- 4:33Speaker 1: know I got to be on my best behavior.
- 4:35Speaker 2: You need to know who to give the heisman.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Two.
- 4:37Speaker 2: If someone comes up and says, hey boy, you see
- 4:39Speaker 2: no badge get away from me. Well that's a look Gorka.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Look Gorka is not exactly a warm, fuzzy individual, so
- 4:46Speaker 1: he'd be walking down the hall Stebby like I don't
- 4:49Speaker 1: have time. I have to go.
- 4:51Speaker 2: I have no time.
- 4:51Speaker 1: So that I'm behind him saying hi, how are you?
- 4:54Speaker 1: Thanks for being here, I'm slapping him on the back
- 4:56Speaker 1: and trying to do damage control because he ain't exactly
- 4:59Speaker 1: you know, touchy feely boy. What sow It's gonna be
- 5:03Speaker 1: a great time, all right, let's solve some world's problem.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I got a rule. I'm not going to do any
- 5:08Speaker 1: updates on Nancy Guthrie unless there's an update. Went to
- 5:11Speaker 1: bed last night fully convinced there was gonna We're gonna
- 5:13Speaker 1: wake up to some kind of arrest.
- 5:15Speaker 2: One nothing well, no, whether it was update, I got nothing.
- 5:19Speaker 2: There was a development yesterday with creepy with the creepy
- 5:22Speaker 2: actual video of a guy. So right, that's a something.
- 5:25Speaker 2: But then you're right, you and I are texting back
- 5:27Speaker 2: and forth, SWAT's.
- 5:28Speaker 1: On the move. They detained a man, They detained a guy.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Why they detained a guy? His eyes looked like the
- 5:35Speaker 1: eyes of the guy on the surveillance picture. He apparently
- 5:38Speaker 1: is totally innocent.
- 5:39Speaker 2: And they has looked like the guy on the surveillance
- 5:41Speaker 2: I think it was.
- 5:43Speaker 1: I think it.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Where were you like interest?
- 5:46Speaker 1: I mean, but how look, now let's let's get into
- 5:48Speaker 1: surveillance stuff. This is fascinating because I love that you
- 5:51Speaker 1: and I and I appreciate where you are with this,
- 5:54Speaker 1: and I'm kind of like you that, look, we got
- 5:56Speaker 1: to accept surveillance state. You know, it just is just
- 5:59Speaker 1: there's camera everywhere. You don't do anything wrong with what
- 6:01Speaker 1: you have to worry about. However, I was listening here
- 6:04Speaker 1: I am in South Carolina listening to Tara this morning,
- 6:07Speaker 1: Who's a wonderful morning host. I'm blessed with such great
- 6:10Speaker 1: morning hosts around the country that are part of our network.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Tara is a local lady here in Greenville, South Carolina.
- 6:15Speaker 1: She was comparing the revelation about like you and I
- 6:19Speaker 1: talked about the new what do they call it, search
- 6:23Speaker 1: party feature of Ring where if your dog is missing,
- 6:27Speaker 1: you can go to Ring and you can say, here's
- 6:29Speaker 1: the picture of my dog. That picture gets basically downloaded
- 6:33Speaker 1: every camera in your city and then the every camera
- 6:36Speaker 1: everybody's ring, doorbell is looking for the dog and AI.
- 6:39Speaker 1: It's powered by AI and if the dog is found,
- 6:42Speaker 1: then boom, you get a notification. Well, she was comparing
- 6:45Speaker 1: that with the CCP in China. They have like seven
- 6:49Speaker 1: hundred million surveillance cameras in China, all monitored by the CCP,
- 6:55Speaker 1: and it all goes through the government and they're watching
- 6:58Speaker 1: and they got facial recognition applied, they got people and incidantly,
- 7:02Speaker 1: as Tara pointed out, she goes, I don't really know
- 7:05Speaker 1: how I feel about this because you know what they
- 7:06Speaker 1: don't have in China.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Crime, Well, the one of communism's best things. Yes, crime,
- 7:14Speaker 2: not a lot of home, not a lot of homelessness,
- 7:15Speaker 2: not a lot of homeless people, not a lot of hunters.
- 7:17Speaker 2: I'm teasing. Because you surrender all your rights on authoritarian regime,
- 7:21Speaker 2: they can clean up the streets for you.
- 7:23Speaker 1: They can. So let's look back at the Nancy. So
- 7:26Speaker 1: let's go to the Nancy Guthry thing for a moment.
- 7:28Speaker 1: She had apparently was actually a Nest camera. And that's
- 7:31Speaker 1: a distinction with the difference because because Nest is part
- 7:34Speaker 1: of Google, and she had a Nest camera, well, she
- 7:37Speaker 1: didn't subscribe, she didn't have any services. She had nothing,
- 7:41Speaker 1: and yet, and yet, and yet they found that surveillance
- 7:46Speaker 1: video just yesterday off of her nest camera that the
- 7:49Speaker 1: guy attempted to disable. Here's the bottom line. You got
- 7:54Speaker 1: a camera. The government wants to find what's on your camera.
- 7:57Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you subscribe to a service or not.
- 8:00Speaker 1: They're going to have access to it. They're going to
- 8:02Speaker 1: get access.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Between the benefit to law enforcement and the evils of
- 8:06Speaker 2: the Communist Party, the difference is not the technology. Technology
- 8:09Speaker 2: is the same. The difference is the government in charge.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Who's in charge. I kind of touched on this in
- 8:13Speaker 2: the opening half hour, and you're one hundred percent right.
- 8:16Speaker 2: The good news is the camera enables everybody to know
- 8:18Speaker 2: where you might be. The bad news is the camera
- 8:21Speaker 2: enables everybody to know where you think. It depends on
- 8:24Speaker 2: who's looking for you and why. You know, Mike Gallagher
- 8:27Speaker 2: just went gun shopping, you know, Mark Davis just you know,
- 8:30Speaker 2: you know, went and got ammunition.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Well that was Terror's point. Tara said, what happens if
- 8:34Speaker 1: and when the Democrats get in control and look thanks
- 8:37Speaker 1: to people like like squishes like Mitch McConnell, they might
- 8:41Speaker 1: for Republican senators against the Save Act, the usual suspects,
- 8:46Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski, Tom Tillis, Turtle, the Turtle McConnell. They're against
- 8:52Speaker 1: the Save Act. I mean, are you kidding me? You
- 8:56Speaker 1: don't want elect they don't want election integrity. I think
- 8:58Speaker 1: they want to hand the election and the midterms over
- 9:01Speaker 1: to the Democrats in November. But look, if the Democrats
- 9:05Speaker 1: got back in control, how could they manipulate the surveillance state?
- 9:09Speaker 1: How could they keep an eye on somebody who's a
- 9:11Speaker 1: gun owner in Frisco and we want to keep an
- 9:15Speaker 1: eye on him or you know, it's it's a little scary.
- 9:18Speaker 2: For anybody, for anybody thinking we're making a little bit
- 9:21Speaker 2: of a leap from a future Democrat White House to
- 9:24Speaker 2: the Chinese Communist Party. It's not exactly apples and apples.
- 9:28Speaker 2: But do we need to remind everybody of the degree
- 9:30Speaker 2: to which the left has tried to silence us, criminalize
- 9:34Speaker 2: our views, marginalize our views, have us punitively treated on
- 9:39Speaker 2: social media, punitively treated by the irs. It ain't that
- 9:42Speaker 2: big a lea
