"You Gotta Have Heart" (Saturday November 29 2025, Hour 2) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: We'll do it.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: We'll do it today, do it lit alright, and we'll
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: do it long.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: Jeword said, steal me.
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: A day.
• 0:14
  Speaker 5: At least for work, when.
• 0:15
  Speaker 6: The sun comes up, drops at school.
• 0:20
  Speaker 7: Joe has everything.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Needs no one that Joe's smoked.
• 0:27
  Speaker 8: He only.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Because you're wondering.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: We do it live on a Saturday. Do we have
• 0:38
  Speaker 5: that clip of the Public Affairs Show with the activists.
• 0:42
  Speaker 9: The open bo on people should not be politicized.
• 0:46
  Speaker 10: People are not chess pieces.
• 0:47
  Speaker 9: They deserve the benefits that they're entitled to receive.
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: And of course this becomes the handringing apologism over the
• 0:56
  Speaker 5: non citizens. Doctor Clark was on with us. Yeah, am
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: comparing him to it.
• 1:02
  Speaker 11: Just coming with a can of a reverse migration.
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: Wasps, yes he is, Yes, he is. Uh. And unfortunately,
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: like the activist, I played the clip of you know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: it's this ridiculous. I believe as a Christian that God
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: has given you gifts, talents, rights, you know that you have.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: That's not what they're out there pushing for. And unfortunately
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: they have found a way. You know, it's probably the
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: same ad agency that has convinced us that Hamas is
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: just a marginalized, misunderstood troop of activists. You know that
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: we believe that somehow people are are acting up because
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: they they just they need stuff. It's survival crime. The
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: the con that they've foisted on us is that these
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: folks do these things simply because they have no other choice,
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: when we always have a choice. So, you know, and
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: the question and the question I asked earlier, where is
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: the investigation into how he got from Washington State? And
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: I'm sure you're given it. It's cash Bettel. I hope
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: that that's where they're going with this is just like
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: the guy who shot the US Healthcare CEO? How did
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: he traverse all these miles and put himself up in
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: a hotel to do this? You know, this wasn't you
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: know he was walking to the bodega on K Street
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: or D Street Northwest and decide, you know what, I'm
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: sick and tired of all these National Guards troops in
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: my hometown. He wasn't from Washington. I don't think he'd
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: ever been to Washington, d C. He was brought there
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: somehow for this reason.
• 2:49
  Speaker 11: Threats to national security is what they keep telling us.
• 2:54
  Speaker 11: And the big threat the national security Joe was bringing
• 2:58
  Speaker 11: millions of people that hate America, our way of life,
• 3:03
  Speaker 11: and Americans into America.
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: Thank you Clark. It certainly would seem that way, and
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: if logic prevailed, that would be one of the things
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: you would look for. But when you listen to these
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: activists and they're pitching this idea that somehow personhood and
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: that you know, we should be responsible for everyone on
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: the planet. Yet when we do, they screamed that we're interventionists.
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: That's the part that I think is really truly gas
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: lighting in all of this. First thing, this Saturday morning,
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Bill Bremier his story of surviving a heart that just
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: didn't seem like it had any more miles in it,
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: and how that went down great Thanksgiving kind of reminder
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: story coming back with us in just a little bit.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: Your phone calls as well at four three four eight
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: eight two four two one seven, because you know, we'll
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: tell you what went on last night. We'll even tell
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: you the analysis of the debris field from our lab.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: But I want to hear how it's impacting you where
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: you are as well, So get in their text message
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: however you need to do it. Our first things this
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: morning across the country come reports of pro hamas protesters
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: storming retail outlets or trying to block access to parking
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: lots and shopping centers on Black Friday, like these protesters
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: recorded at Zara's department store in New York City. The
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: New York City Police Department confirmed at least one arrest
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: in that protest. Gary Beckstrom, the father of the West
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: Virginia National Guard member Sarah Beckstorm, who was killed in
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: the assault Wednesday before Thanksgiving, shared on a Facebook post,
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: I don't if I don't talk to you, don't be offended.
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: This has been a horror tragedy. My baby girl has
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: passed to glory. The Trump administration said Friday it has
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: halted all asylum decisions after the top immigration officials said
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: in a statement to The Financial Times that the government
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: must ensure that every alien is vetted and screened to
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: the maximum degree possible. Meanwhile, former chair of the Democratic
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: National Committee and the overseer of the screw Bernie Sanders
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: over campaign in twenty sixteen, W. Wasserman Schultz told the
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: news media that the blame is at the White House.
• 5:36
  Speaker 12: I just think, you know, the President looks everywhere except
• 5:39
  Speaker 12: inward to blame his own policies. We need to make
• 5:44
  Speaker 12: sure that we don't have our military deployed in our cities.
• 5:48
  Speaker 12: We're doing law handling law enforcement responsibilities.
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: Parroting what many Democrat officials and commentators have been arguing
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: that the cause of the attack was the presence of
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: the National Guard. Airbus has thrown several hundred monkey wrenches
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: into Thanksgiving travel as they have ordered an immediate repair
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: recall of six thousand plus A three twenty family jets
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: used by carriers like American Airlines, Delta, and United. This
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: is as they stay to Reuter's quote, analysis of a
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: recent event involving in a three to twenty family aircraft
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: has revealed that intense solar radiation may corrupt data critical
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: to the function of the flight controls. A federal judge
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: has ruled that Immigrations and Custom Enforcement agents in Colorado
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: may arrest suspected undocumented immigrants without a warrant only when
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: they have probable cause to believe the person is likely
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: to flee, siding with the ACLU in her ruling. And
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: those are some of our first things for this Saturday morning.
• 7:02
  Speaker 13: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 7:07
  Speaker 13: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
• 7:12
  Speaker 13: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 7:17
  Speaker 13: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 7:22
  Speaker 13: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 7:27
  Speaker 13: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 7:31
  Speaker 13: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 7:35
  Speaker 13: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 7:38
  Speaker 13: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 7:41
  Speaker 13: your hands and feet. Well, our product, ultimate nitric oxide
• 7:46
  Speaker 13: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

• 8:06
  Speaker 13: one of the few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products
• 8:11
  Speaker 13: on the market. Hi im doctor Mitch. Since most chronic
• 8:15
  Speaker 13: diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems to be a
• 8:20
  Speaker 13: perfect addition to any nutritional program. It makes sense to
• 8:25
  Speaker 13: me that preventing or reducing inflammation is a key component
• 8:30
  Speaker 13: to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin
• 8:34
  Speaker 13: can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties, and research
• 8:40
  Speaker 13: suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer or at least slow
• 8:44
  Speaker 13: the spread of cancer, and in many instances, make chemotherapy
• 8:48
  Speaker 13: more effective. It protects our healthy cells even from radiation.

  Speaker 14: I'm Andrew Saul, Commission of Self Security. I'm here to
• 9:05
  Speaker 14: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
• 9:10
  Speaker 14: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
• 9:13
  Speaker 14: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
• 9:16
  Speaker 14: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 9:21
  Speaker 14: are not from US. Real solid security employees will never
• 9:25
  Speaker 14: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
• 9:29
  Speaker 14: call like this, hang up. Never give the call of
• 9:33
  Speaker 14: your personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
• 9:37
  Speaker 14: or send money in any form cash, gift cards, wire
• 9:41
  Speaker 14: transfers of prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our
• 9:46
  Speaker 14: law enforcement on the Office of the Inspector General at

  Speaker 14: friends and family.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy. Growing
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: animals I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: help those in need. So please join me an American
• 10:49

  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: And now a speech.
• 11:06
  Speaker 15: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
• 11:10
  Speaker 15: art and brain.
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 16: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and.
• 11:15
  Speaker 15: My brain is saying when it's time to go home.
• 11:18
  Speaker 15: Somebody call me a ride.
• 11:19
  Speaker 9: Love that guy, me too.
• 11:21
  Speaker 17: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
• 11:23
  Speaker 17: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 11:26
  Speaker 18: Whom did you know that more than half our household

• 12:32
  Speaker 19: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 12:35
  Speaker 19: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is the
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: first thing today?
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Are you're joining me on this Saturday morning, Thanksgiving weekend?
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: I think important? And this is why when I met
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: Bill Breemeyer, I said, you know, we got to chat
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: with this guy, great story of really gratitude and and
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: how you do it now? Bill, wouldn't we tell you
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: your heart is failing you. It had given you some trouble,
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: but then the RSV kicked it over. So what did
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: you guys decide to do? At that point, we.
• 13:55
  Speaker 8: Decided to go the transplant route. And if I didn't
• 13:58
  Speaker 8: have a B blood, which is the only type of
• 14:02
  Speaker 8: blood type that can accept the donor organ from every
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: other blood type, they wouldn't even have tried to put
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: me on the heart transplant list. Wow, but they ended
• 14:11
  Speaker 8: up expediting everything. They got me on the list. The
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: main problem was, I had these two Unpella pumps, one
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: in each ventricle, that were barely keeping me alive. But
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: at the same time they're also slowly killing you. Because
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: you're not supposed to be on one more than fourteen days.
• 14:29
  Speaker 8: They damage your platelets, and then you end up with
• 14:31
  Speaker 8: blood clots. Oh gosh, and so one or the other
• 14:34
  Speaker 8: is going to get you exactly. And there's a number
• 14:38
  Speaker 8: of reasons I never should have made the transplant list.
• 14:42
  Speaker 8: This second pump that they put in me, they'd only
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: developed the year before. They didn't even have one. They
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: had to have it flown in from Detroit Medical Center.
• 14:52
  Speaker 8: The second thing was obviously, like I said, my blood
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: type gave me at least a chance, But I also
• 14:57
  Speaker 8: had a badly infected tooth, the correct tooth and crown
• 15:02
  Speaker 8: that needed a rook canal. All of this happened just
• 15:05
  Speaker 8: before I went into the hospitals, and you know, it
• 15:09
  Speaker 8: was never fixed, and it was the number one criteria
• 15:12
  Speaker 8: to get on a transplant list is that you have
• 15:14
  Speaker 8: no oral infection whatsoever.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: Right, right, I've heard that.
• 15:18
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so called a specialist. I'm sorry, Oh no, no, no,
• 15:22
  Speaker 8: I was yeah.
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah. So they dealt with the tooth first. They had
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: to do that.
• 15:28
  Speaker 8: Well, because they had been pumping me full of antibiotics
• 15:32
  Speaker 8: and we certainly had a lot of people praying for me.
• 15:35
  Speaker 8: The specialists they called in looked, took one look in
• 15:38
  Speaker 8: my mouth and wiggled that tooth, and he said, this
• 15:40
  Speaker 8: is the cleanest mouth I've seen in a hundred patients.
• 15:43
  Speaker 8: You're good to go.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: Oh really, yeah.
• 15:48
  Speaker 8: And at this point I had already been on one
• 15:51
  Speaker 8: pump nearly two weeks, so things are getting tight. I mean,
• 15:55
  Speaker 8: the expedited the whole process. I knew nothing about this.
• 15:58
  Speaker 8: By the way, they didn't tell me that part, which
• 16:00
  Speaker 8: is probably just as well. But they said, don't worry.
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: You're at the top of the nationwide transplant lists and
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: it'll take us a couple of days to a week
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: for us to get your heart. And so we're like, yeah,
• 16:13
  Speaker 8: it sounds good. Lo and behold. Two days later they
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: said we've got a heart for you. And we were
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: just ecstatic, and but we noticed, you know, it took
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: a long time for the heart to get there. It
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: took a day and a half of the heart to
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: get there.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 16:27
  Speaker 8: And by the time yeah, and by the time they
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: opened the box, it was no good.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, that sounds like a long
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: time for an organ.
• 16:36
  Speaker 8: Yeah, they can't keep viable that long, sixteen eighteen hours
• 16:40
  Speaker 8: as maximum. So the very next day I had booklets
• 16:45
  Speaker 8: because of the Impello pumps. They were in my urinary
• 16:48
  Speaker 8: catheter and in my bladder and they were able to
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: just flush me all out and they said, you're still
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: good to go, don't worry. And you know, by then,
• 16:58
  Speaker 8: I've already been on the this one pump over two weeks.
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: Of course, that's what caused the blood classes. The very
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: next day I woke up. There was a terrible storm
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: we had going on. It was just an incredible electrical storm,
• 17:12
  Speaker 8: and it woke me up and one of the nurses
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: came in early and said, I'm sorry to tell you this,
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: but if we don't find you a heart today, you're
• 17:20
  Speaker 8: not going to live past tomorrow.
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: Oh my god.
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's not exactly what you want to wake up to.
• 17:28
  Speaker 8: But being a man of faith all along, I felt
• 17:32
  Speaker 8: the Good Lord was telling me two things. Don't worry.
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: I've got this, and I've got much.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: More work for you to do, okay.
• 17:39
  Speaker 8: And I also felt I should call this local Christian
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: radio station that I listened to a lot and ask
• 17:46
  Speaker 8: them to pray for me, because they had prayed for
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: both me and my brother before when we had heart
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: issues and we both had great results. So I attempted
• 17:55
  Speaker 8: to call this station, and because of the electrical storm,
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: it was like cell phone, it was like static on
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: an ODM radio. And I probably doubt at least forty
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: times who's counting, but it was a lot, and I
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: was just about ready to give up. And then I
• 18:11
  Speaker 8: felt all these weirds say you should just keep down,
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: don't worry, and not about maybe the fiftieth or sixtieth dial.
• 18:18
  Speaker 8: I thought, I faintly heard this morning show host's voice
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: and I said to him, Jeremy, I said, this is
• 18:24
  Speaker 8: Bill from the air Zoo. Like you know, he knows
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: me because I would call in about the air Zoo.
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: He loves the air Zoo and we have a lot
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: of special events there. And I said, it's Bill from
• 18:36
  Speaker 8: the air Zoo. I need everybody to pray because I
• 18:38
  Speaker 8: need a new heart and I need it today. And
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: I heard absolutely no response, just static, and so I
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: hung up my phone after about a minute, and I
• 18:49
  Speaker 8: just went back to pray. And you're doing a lot
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: of praying at this point.
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: I believe it. And you're still in the hospital. You're
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: in a hospital room at this point.
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, exactly, with a day, you know, a
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: day left to live. And so about two hours later,
• 19:07
  Speaker 8: one of my one of my transplant team assistant surgeons,
• 19:10
  Speaker 8: came in and he said, my wife says, she thought
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: you heard you on this radio station. And I said,
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: I said yes. I said, but I said, I didn't
• 19:20
  Speaker 8: even know I got through. And she's he says, not
• 19:23
  Speaker 8: only did you get through, we just got word we've
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: got another heart for you.
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: Look at that, you knew it.
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you're you're crying tears of joy at this point.
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: And early the next morning, I had a less than
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: two hour surgery. It's normally a four to twelve hour operation,
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: and I recovered so well and so fast. I worked
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: hard at it, but you know, it was all the
• 19:48
  Speaker 8: prayers and the good Lord and excellent medical care that
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: all came together. I set a new hospital record from
• 19:55
  Speaker 8: trans of transplant to discharge fourteen days.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: Fourteen days. Oh my god, Pardness. Well, you know, as
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: you said you were, you already had the universal receptor
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: blood types, so that that was a blessing, uh in,
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: and of its.
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: Huge Yes, it's a huge, huge blessing.
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: So I imagine how did you feel when you came
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: out of that surgery? I mean there, I can only
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: imagine the profound, you know change. I know when I've
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: had medical things dealt with and I felt, you know,
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: the coming out the other end. I mean, cancer isn't
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: quite the same thing. It's a gradual but I mean
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: when you woke up from the surgery, how did how
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: profound was the change?
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: I felt really good. It's funny, though, because I'm having
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: to tell you this all by what other people told me.
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: That very first day you're on fentanyl because of the
• 20:53
  Speaker 8: potential pain, and the next day you're on AXI coote,
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: and so I don't remember a lot, but this is
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: a very humorous story. He told my wife he'd wake
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: up early the next afternoon. The surgery was middle of
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: the night, and I was doing so well. I woke
• 21:07
  Speaker 8: up four hours later, way earlier than normal, and I
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: was breathing. I was trying to breathe, and all my
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: levels everything were just wonderful. And so they took the
• 21:19
  Speaker 8: intubation tu about right away, which they normally don't do
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: for another one to two days, and then you're supposed
• 21:25
  Speaker 8: to have a swallowing test before you eat. Well, apparently,
• 21:30
  Speaker 8: when I woke up and like I said, this is
• 21:32
  Speaker 8: you know, secondhand from everybody else. I said, I was hungry,
• 21:36
  Speaker 8: and they said, what do you want to eat? And
• 21:37
  Speaker 8: I said, I'll have a lasagna. It's pretty good, and yeah,
• 21:42
  Speaker 8: the funniest thing, the crust around that lasagna was like
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: eating a raw hide dog. Boy, you you just chew
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: out it forever. So anyways, I ate the lasagna and
• 21:54
  Speaker 8: two hours later the charge nurse came in and she said, well,
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: we're going to take him for a swallowing test. Oh.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: None.
• 22:02
  Speaker 13: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent
• 22:04

  Speaker 6: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:20
  Speaker 6: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: your fuel choices around, say every third tank full, you
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.

  Speaker 13: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our

  Speaker 13: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any

  Speaker 13: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 24:31
  Speaker 13: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation.
• 24:36
  Speaker 13: Has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 24:42
  Speaker 13: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and

• 28:49
  Speaker 5: a great story, amazing story of faith perseverance. Was just
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: telling me U how we went back to that Christian
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: radio station and they had all big thing for him
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: because they didn't know that, you know, and we don't
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: in this industry. We guess, we postulate, we read research sometimes,
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: but until I talk to you on the phone, I
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: don't know if we're connecting after a number of years.
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: I'd like to think I know what it is we
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: need to do to connect with one another because you're
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: sitting by yourself. You're sitting by yourself and thinking, God,
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: you know, am I the only one out here this morning,
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: especially on a Saturday morning. You're out on you know,
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: Sacramento or someplace like that, and it's just it hasn't
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: even sunrise yet, and you've been watching the news and
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: you've got that kind of ten mile stare. Any anyway, Bill,
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: thank you for telling us your story, and certainly you
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: know your faithfulness seems like it was a big part
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: of your recovery.
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, we had thousands of people praying for us.
• 29:57
  Speaker 8: My wife is very strong lady. If they see she's
• 30:01
  Speaker 8: just never worried about she It's in God's hands and
• 30:03
  Speaker 8: you know, whatever happens, We're going to be good. But
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: I think she really believed that I would recovery, and
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: so did many other people. They prayed accordingly, and I
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: really worked hard at recovery. But I never I had
• 30:19
  Speaker 8: no fear whatsoever at any time. I really had very
• 30:23
  Speaker 8: little pain, which was amazing. I just somehow knew that
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: God was going to come through, and he did.
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: Bill Breemeyer is on with us, and he is the
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: author of a book that I think is a great
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: story for thanksgiving, the gratitude of life and of faith.
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: It's called The Miracle Man, and it's about his heart transplant.
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: So you told me at the onset this was twenty
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: eighteen or so, so we're talking about five six years
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: in between. So how have the last five or six
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: years been. What have you been doing?
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: Pardon the hackneyed expression with this new lease on life?
• 31:06
  Speaker 8: Oh, I think I confuse you a little bit. That's
• 31:08
  Speaker 8: when I had my first heart attack.
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: Oh oh, oh, I'm sorry that I started at the
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: clock in eighteen. Yeah, yeah, that's okay.
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: My surgery was actually June twenty seventh of last year,
• 31:19
  Speaker 8: twenty twenty four.
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: Okay, all right, it's been a year.
• 31:21
  Speaker 8: It's been a year and four months, so I'm doing
• 31:24
  Speaker 8: extremely well. I was actually back at my volunteer jobs.
• 31:27
  Speaker 8: I have a couple other ones besides the ar Zoo
• 31:30
  Speaker 8: keeps me busy three days a week. I was there
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: two months after my surgery.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: My god, they must have been standing ovation to see
• 31:40
  Speaker 5: you pretty much.
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: And I just happened to come back in the day
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: when a very special pilot was there a plane that
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: we had worked any, a night Hawk stealth fighter, and
• 31:50
  Speaker 8: he was just so gracious and couldn't believe I was.
• 31:53
  Speaker 8: I went through all that and kept going, I'm glad
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: you're alive. That's it was great.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: What what is the plan? Obviously you want to share
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: this story. What is the message you want along with
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: the message of faith and prayer and and you know
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: faith that there's a chapter being written for you. Are
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: there other messages for folks who hear the story now
• 32:21
  Speaker 5: with us or pick up the book?
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: Well, never give up, get as many people praying for
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: you as you possibly can. Treat everybody kindly that's taken
• 32:34
  Speaker 8: care of you. I mean that might sound a little selfish,
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: but you know, no medical people are phenomenal at corwell.
• 32:42
  Speaker 8: But you know they have they have a lot of
• 32:46
  Speaker 8: you know, things they have issues with. I mean, when
• 32:49
  Speaker 8: a patient dies, they feel it tremendously. And sometimes they
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: have patients that aren't very cooperative.
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I can understand that. And we have to
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: have a heart of gratitude. And that's why I thought
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: it was really compelling for me to tell this story
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: or in and around Thanksgiving, because I imagine Thanksgiving has
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: a different meaning for you these days than it did before.
• 33:15
  Speaker 8: It sure does, I believe me. Every day I get
• 33:18
  Speaker 8: up and say thank you Father, thank you Jesus, thank
• 33:21
  Speaker 8: you Holy Spirit for another day life.
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: Well, and and you know, blessings And I know and
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: you haven't talked about it, and I don't know. Some
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: folks that I know that have had organ transplants, they
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: they either pray for the family of those who lost
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: the organ, you know, or or even connect with them.
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: Have you done any of that or do you just
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: keep the whoever this family may have been that lost
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: their loved one in order for your heart transplant to
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: take place? Do you do you think about them? Do
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: you pray for their peace and and their and their strength?
• 33:58
  Speaker 8: Nearly nearly every day I have tried to contact the
• 34:03
  Speaker 8: family through Gift of Life. Unfortunately, there's been no response,
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: and that's more often than not the case. I wrote
• 34:12
  Speaker 8: a very heartfelt letter, and you know, you don't know
• 34:15
  Speaker 8: what type of trauma they're dealing with. It was probably
• 34:18
  Speaker 8: a car accident. It could have been a fentanel overdose,
• 34:21
  Speaker 8: it could have been a violent death. We just don't
• 34:23
  Speaker 8: know either way. I mean, a death of a loved
• 34:27
  Speaker 8: one is just very traumatic. So hopefully someday they will
• 34:30
  Speaker 8: attempt to contact me. Maybe they'll hear about this book
• 34:33
  Speaker 8: and put two and two together and you know, realize, hey,
• 34:37
  Speaker 8: that was probably my loved one's heart that he got.
• 34:40
  Speaker 8: So anyways, we'll just see what happens.
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: And you pray, like I said, you get pray for
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: their piece to know that that even losing a loved
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: one wasn't in vain and that their exactly life is
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: a blessing as well.
• 34:53
  Speaker 8: Bill.

  Speaker 5: sign some books for us.
• 35:19
  Speaker 8: Hey, that's a possibility. I'm not sure if that's going
• 35:21
  Speaker 8: to happen, but there are a lot of things happening,
• 35:23
  Speaker 8: so we'll just see what God does with it. That's it.
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: And you be careful of those promotional people in the
• 35:29

• 35:43
  Speaker 5: so much, such an honor, and you have a wonderful weekend.
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: the phone number. There is reading, you know, and some
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: folks you know, And these are the kind of stories
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: that trigger a lot of folks in a good way
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: and they say, oh, well I knew this, I had
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: that person. And stories of faith, faith healing. I have
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: A dear friend was the receptionist at the radio station.
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: I'm not allowed to mention anymore. I'll assume me again
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: for many years, and she talked about healing her own
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: cancer through faith and the doctors were thought it was miraculous,
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: and she's just gone on and on. I remember a
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: moment I was facing it particularly, you know, it's almost
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: shameful to bring it up. I was having business trouble.
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: I'd lost a partner, and not in a bad way.
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: He had just left the business and I didn't know
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: what I was going to do. And she just, you know,
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: laid her hands on either side of my head and
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: we'd said, you know, just a simple little prayer for
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: guidance and peace. And five minutes later I'm like, oh,
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: I know who to call, And I called friend and
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: we saved the business for it at least another two years,
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: probably had more success than we had had even before that.
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: It's just it is. It is about the clarity of mind,
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: the peace, the ability to see the long field even there.
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: So you know, the power of humility in a lot
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: of ways. What's the expression they use, let go and
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: let God? You know, it is it is the case.
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: I mean it juxtaposed against the expression you know, God's
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: not going to garden for you, but he'll make sure
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: you have access to a shovel. You know, these are
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: the things that we remember as we get on into
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: our Thanksgiving weekend and watch the craziness on the TV
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: news and realize you know that there's a part of
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: you that your heart breaks for people who are being
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: suborned into this kind of activity out of what they're
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: convinced is doing something good for someone.
• 38:01
  Speaker 22: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
• 38:05
  Speaker 22: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding.
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: Or abolishing the police.
• 38:11
  Speaker 22: At a time when America's neighborhoods need the protection of
• 38:14
  Speaker 22: police the most, some elected officials would rather create more
• 38:17
  Speaker 22: chaos by playing politics. If you're sick of elected officials
• 38:21
  Speaker 22: caving in to demands.
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: Of the radical left, you're not alone.
• 38:25

  Speaker 4: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,

  Speaker 2: First Thing Today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas,
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: the second most famous Thomas and Charlotte'sville.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: You know, it's interesting. Our hometown is straddling a couple
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: of big end of season football games. And that's a
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: rarity around here, is to have meaningful football games after Thanksgiving,
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: I mean outside of you know, within rivalries and for
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: bragging rights or whatever. But James Madison University in Harrisonburg
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: is trying to get into the college football playoffs, playoffs.
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: I see Jim Mora just took on a job in Colorado,
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: Colorado State, I think, leaving yukon playoffs. I know it
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: was his dad that said that. But you know, in
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: the coaching carousel and the Lane Kiffin craziness and everything.
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: But I was talking with our sports director Mac McDonald
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: about rivalry weekends and Virginia Tech for example, for years
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: a staple, would you know, almost routinely show up in
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: preseason top ten you stub its toes somewhere along the line,
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: usually to a school like James Madison University, and then
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: fall out of top ten situations. But would still, you know,
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: rebound to win ten games a year show up in
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: a New Year's Day Bowl game, which was you know
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: at the time, you know worth it, and you know
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: everyone loved them and everything. But it's it's been a
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: long time since that happened, and they're, you know, on
• 45:49
  Speaker 5: the high end of a losing season, losing twice as
• 45:52
  Speaker 5: many as they win, and they're facing their in state
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: rival who's usually on the other side of that coin,
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: Virginia University of Virginia never considered in the national playoffs spot.
• 46:05
  Speaker 5: And there are a lot of people in the ACC
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: who are like Police Scott, don't let it be Virginia
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: because they just don't believe. They're like, this team was
• 46:15
  Speaker 5: put together like the New York Yankees used to be
• 46:17
  Speaker 5: a bunch of free agent signings. But that's the way
• 46:19
  Speaker 5: it works now. So I asked Mac about these rivalries,
• 46:22
  Speaker 5: and I was watching Texas up in number three Texas
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: A and m Arch Manning statistically had an awful game,
• 46:31
  Speaker 5: but you know, put that game in there with some
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: of his brother's big games, or is not brothers, his
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: uncles big games, And so you know, a lot of
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: people said, well, now that's thrown a spanner into the
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: college football works. And there are people in the college
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: football world who don't like these rivalry weekends. That's why
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: they moved the Red River rivalry too early in the year.
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma and Texas, partially because they're not in the same
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: league anymore, but also because a lot of these big
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: rivalry games throw a spanner into the college football playoff universe.
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: You know, like I said, Texas, what happens if Michigan
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: beats the Ohio State University and that kind of I think.
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: So I asked Mac this week, our sports director, what
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: were some what were the biggest college football rivalries? And
• 47:26
  Speaker 5: they still mean anything anymore? You know, So tell you
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: I think it's going to be good because I mean
• 47:31
  Speaker 5: with the college football Playoff, I mean you've got teams
• 47:34
  Speaker 5: like like Alabama could get knocked out. You know, if Auburn,
• 47:38
  Speaker 5: you know, does another kick six or anything, that UVA
• 47:41
  Speaker 5: can be knocked out. You know, these are big games,
• 47:44
  Speaker 5: even for down teams.
• 47:46
  Speaker 24: No, all, right, Top five, this is my top five.
• 47:48
  Speaker 24: Kind of hard to do, but that's what shows do
• 47:51
  Speaker 24: when you need a list. Number five is Oklahoma and
• 47:54
  Speaker 24: Texas again because of the state Fair and it does
• 47:56
  Speaker 24: happen in September. But I think, truly it's one of
• 47:59
  Speaker 24: the top college flat.
• 48:00
  Speaker 5: And this is so hard.
• 48:01
  Speaker 24: Number four, I've got USC U c l A, but
• 48:04
  Speaker 24: the USC Notre Dame rivalry might be bigger than that.
• 48:08
  Speaker 24: I put that little hastreak right there. Number three is
• 48:10
  Speaker 24: Florida Georgia again played early in the year. Uh, just
• 48:14
  Speaker 24: an absolute drunken brawl in Jacksonville. I mean, the rivalry
• 48:17
  Speaker 24: is so fierce that they can't even go home and
• 48:19
  Speaker 24: home right. Number two Alabama Auburn.
• 48:22
  Speaker 12: Ye.
• 48:22
  Speaker 24: Uh, the Iron Bowl is has seen so many great
• 48:25
  Speaker 24: moments and such. Uh, you know that that's huge. But
• 48:28
  Speaker 24: number one has to be a hot state Michigan. Uh,
• 48:30
  Speaker 24: just for all the you know, the years and now
• 48:33
  Speaker 24: Ryan Day little pressure, I mean, Ryan Day has not
• 48:36
  Speaker 24: beaten uh Michigan. Michigan is laying for Ohio State to
• 48:39
  Speaker 24: knock them off.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: But there aren't.
• 48:41
  Speaker 24: There are several honorable mentions Harvard, Yale. You know it's
• 48:45
  Speaker 24: got to be just when you think about it, Georgia,
• 48:48
  Speaker 24: Georgia Tech is a big one now naturally so South
• 48:51
  Speaker 24: Carolina Clemson because it's normally saved at the end of
• 48:53
  Speaker 24: the year. Florida State, Miami and Oregon and Oregon State.
• 48:56
  Speaker 24: People fans might forget that that when when the ACC expanded,
• 49:02
  Speaker 24: the ACC was experimenting with, all right, we're gonna move
• 49:04
  Speaker 24: to Virginia Virginia Tech game in October again the TV
• 49:08
  Speaker 24: contracts to the TV suits, we're trying to figure out,
• 49:11
  Speaker 24: all right, let's space out some of these big rivalry
• 49:14
  Speaker 24: games and then after I don't know how, in fact,
• 49:17
  Speaker 24: I should have looked at it on the dates, I don't,
• 49:20
  Speaker 24: but that only happened a couple of years, and then
• 49:22
  Speaker 24: they got moved back to rivalry weekends. And so when
• 49:27
  Speaker 24: you look at what Tech has done from ninety nine
• 49:30
  Speaker 24: to twenty eleven, Tech was ranked in eleven of the
• 49:33
  Speaker 24: thirteen games. But the history with George Welsh and Frank Beemer,
• 49:37
  Speaker 24: who by the way, respected each other to the utmost,
• 49:41
  Speaker 24: and the Tech staff really respected Georgia's staff and vice versa.
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: So you look back at you so now the scores
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: from Friday, because part of it has split up, Georgia
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: struggled number four in the country, struggled to be Georgia Tech.
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: But then you know Texas A and m number three
• 50:00
  Speaker 5: in the country gets taken to the house by sixteen
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: ranked Texas, not like they lost to three and eight
• 50:06
  Speaker 5: Virginia Tech team, you know, and some of it Indiana
• 50:10
  Speaker 5: just you know, boiler made Purdue. I mean they were
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: drinking boiler Makers at halftime. It was so bad. Utah
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: survived Kansas. So you've got those old myths, you know,
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: amongst the whole Lane Kiffin stuff is there. But you
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: got Yale you mentioned, and Harvard and some of those,
• 50:31
  Speaker 5: but Michigan is at noon today. West Virginia wants to
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: do in Texas Tech. I'm not sure how that's a rivalry,
• 50:38
  Speaker 5: but Miami and Pittsburgh have been rivals since the old
• 50:42
  Speaker 5: Big Ten or not Big East days, and for some
• 50:46
  Speaker 5: reason it's like cold versus warm, but they always do it.
• 50:50
  Speaker 5: So you know, you've got some really interesting games LSU
• 50:54
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma coming up today. James Madison I mentioned now they're
• 50:58
  Speaker 5: still trying to make their resis May out, oh Oregon
• 51:02
  Speaker 5: and Washington. Yeah, over all friends out there. But this
• 51:06
  Speaker 5: James Madison team, they played and won several national championships
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: in you know what we used to call Division two,
• 51:15
  Speaker 5: the FCS, which is a silly acronym now anyway, Yeah,
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: Iron Bowl is at seven thirty tonight. It's a silly
• 51:25
  Speaker 5: acronym because FCS stands for Football Championship Subdivision and then
• 51:30
  Speaker 5: the FBS was the Football Bowl Subdivision, which is now
• 51:34
  Speaker 5: a championship subdivision that uses the Bowls as part of it.
• 51:40
  Speaker 5: But when they were in there and they were playing
• 51:41
  Speaker 5: North Dakota State, and it was a slobber knocker back
• 51:44
  Speaker 5: and forth every year. It was James Madison and North
• 51:47
  Speaker 5: Dakota State, North Dakota State. Then the James Madison again,
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: and they came up and everyone's like, wow, you're going
• 51:52
  Speaker 5: to go up to FBS. You're gonna you know, lucky
• 51:56
