- 0:05Speaker 1: today on the Chunk Media at Joe Thomas.

- 0:15Speaker 2: for work.
- 0:16Speaker 3: When the sun comes up, drops a pet.
- 0:18Speaker 2: Scook Joe had all the Saturday.
- 0:25Speaker 4: No one that Joe's as smile.
- 0:28Speaker 5: He only as.
- 0:33Speaker 3: Joe.
- 0:33Speaker 6: Thank you for letting me be of service to you
- 0:35Speaker 6: this Saturday morning.
- 0:38Speaker 7: In case beell O'Reilly didn't make it clear, we are.
- 0:40Speaker 6: Here live for you each and every Saturday across the
- 0:43Speaker 6: talk media network, and it's mostly for the simplest of reasons.
- 0:50Speaker 6: Your world is not nine to five Monday through Friday
- 0:53Speaker 6: anymore mine. It hasn't been forever, I mean ever since
- 0:57Speaker 6: the old days when I used to tickle the ivories
- 1:01Speaker 6: here at one oh three point nine on Long Island
- 1:03Speaker 6: or anywhere else. You know, we were seven days a
- 1:07Speaker 6: week polo grounds and cpis, which of course is how
- 1:12Speaker 6: it's pronounced. But you know, so we never stopped, and
- 1:17Speaker 6: ever since then, Saturday is not a day off for me,
- 1:20Speaker 6: and it never has been, but more and more frequently
- 1:23Speaker 6: for you. It is not here in Central Virginia University towns,
- 1:28Speaker 6: you know, classes go on on Saturdays. People who have
- 1:32Speaker 6: to get their side hustle on sometimes their main hustle
- 1:35Speaker 6: is Saturday. So this whole idea of Monday through Friday
- 1:39Speaker 6: nine to five has always struck me as kind of
- 1:42Speaker 6: weird and really flipping the script. Go back to my
- 1:46Speaker 6: days when I used to be out on WRCN on
- 1:50Speaker 6: Long Island in the old days. We're seeing fewer and
- 1:54Speaker 6: fewer people. All these resort communities are reporting downturns in
- 2:01Speaker 6: you know, attendance at events. The restaurant seen is struggling.
- 2:08Speaker 6: It's still some of the post COVID stuff. Sure, do
- 2:12Speaker 6: you want to go to a restaurant? Can the restaurant
- 2:14Speaker 6: find staff to work there? That's always been a problem,
- 2:18Speaker 6: not so much in the Cape and on Long Island,
- 2:21Speaker 6: where a lot of you know, h one b vasive
- 2:25Speaker 6: people would come over and you get the bar backer.
- 2:28Speaker 7: Ah, sure on top of the marning. Do you no
- 2:31Speaker 7: from Dublin? You know? And and that's all grow.
- 2:34Speaker 6: Hey, they made their money and they went back home
- 2:36Speaker 6: and hopefully spent it on good stuff. I think the
- 2:40Speaker 6: exchange strange rate was pretty good for them back in
- 2:42Speaker 6: the day. But it's a struggle. It's been a struggle.
- 2:47Speaker 6: And so you know, Saturdays are a different world. Less
- 2:50Speaker 6: people are off, which means less people are going out
- 2:52Speaker 6: to the Hamptons, less people are going to Virginia Beach,
- 2:57Speaker 6: and you know there's there's more staycations as they call it.
- 3:01Speaker 6: But anyway, plus, we still have the government class that
- 3:06Speaker 6: tries to dump out all the stuff they don't want
- 3:09Speaker 6: you talking about on a Friday evening. That's why the
- 3:12Speaker 6: first things this morning, it's going to take all day
- 3:15Speaker 6: to go through it. President Trump is now in a
- 3:17Speaker 6: feud with Congressman Marjorie Taylor Green, calling her a ranting
- 3:22Speaker 6: lunatic and dubbing her with a new nickname, Wacky Marjorie.
- 3:27Speaker 7: He says that he has.
- 3:29Speaker 6: Avowed complete and unyielding support to any primary challenger leading
- 3:34Speaker 6: to the twenty twenty six midterm elections. Much of this
- 3:38Speaker 6: focuses on her calls to have the Jeffrey Epstein documents released.
- 3:45Speaker 6: President Trump signed an executive order Friday to get rid
- 3:48Speaker 6: of tariffs on many commodities, including beef, coffee, and tropical fruits.
- 3:53Speaker 6: This is all part of the framework of agreements that
- 3:56Speaker 6: they've struck with Ecuador, Guatemala, El Salvador and Argentina. The
- 4:02Speaker 6: administration is going to require millions of food Aid recipients
- 4:06Speaker 6: to recertify their information to receive benefits as part of

- 4:15Speaker 6: Trump administration cannot immediately cut federal funding to the University
- 4:19Speaker 6: of California or issue fines against the school overclaims that
- 4:23Speaker 6: allows anti semitism. This is a ruling of US District
- 4:27Speaker 6: Judge Rita Lynn in San Francisco. A preliminary injunction was

- 4:37Speaker 6: and employees. Meanwhile, on the other side of the country,
- 4:41Speaker 6: University of Virginia was the focal point of DOJ investigations
- 4:47Speaker 6: into DEI dismantlement on the college campuses, leading to the
- 4:52Speaker 6: resignation of UVA President Jim Ryan. He's back from sabbatical
- 4:56Speaker 6: after his resignation and is trying to.
- 4:59Speaker 7: Quote he set the record straight.
- 5:01Speaker 6: He said he sent a twelve page letter to the
- 5:03Speaker 6: UVA faculty, sent it on Friday, basically pointing the finger
- 5:08Speaker 6: at the erector and the Board of visitors, saying that
- 5:12Speaker 6: trouble began at the March twenty twenty five board meeting,
- 5:15Speaker 6: quoting when he received when we received a resolution regarding diversity,
- 5:20Speaker 6: equity and inclusion from Governor Youngkin's office, He said the
- 5:24Speaker 6: board was the one that passed a fairly mild version
- 5:28Speaker 6: of the DEI dismantling order they had received. This is
- 5:32Speaker 6: what landed him on the hot seat with the Department
- 5:34Speaker 6: of Justice. Steve Whitcoff, President Trump's Special envoy to the
- 5:39Speaker 6: Middle East, plans to meet with top negotiators for Hamas

- 8:07Speaker 11: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
- 8:12Speaker 11: I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
- 8:18Speaker 11: our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
- 8:22Speaker 11: any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing
- 8:26Speaker 11: or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 11: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 10:01Speaker 13: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.

- 13:30Speaker 3: When the words turn the minutes, two.
- 13:32Speaker 7: Hours and all? I thought it was interesting this week apropultures.
- 13:37Speaker 14: All say the mad white fish, babe, they but fifteen
- 13:41Speaker 14: more miles behind her.
- 13:43Speaker 6: In the fiftieth anniversary of might have split up, for
- 13:47Speaker 6: they might have capsized, they deepened the water potentially.
- 13:53Speaker 7: Turns out there's a little of all.
- 13:55Speaker 18: The faces in the names of the Wedge and the
- 13:58Speaker 18: sons of the Daughter.
- 14:01Speaker 6: The fiftieth anniversary of the loss of the freighter the
- 14:06Speaker 6: Edmund Fitzgerald immortalized unlike all the other freighters that were
- 14:10Speaker 6: lost in the Great Legs over the millennia is one
- 14:17Speaker 6: of the things I thought interesting in this fiftieth anniversary
- 14:21Speaker 6: and the remakes of the Gordon Lightfoot song and all
- 14:24Speaker 6: of that was the absence of anyone saying it was
- 14:29Speaker 6: climate change that had caused the gales of November to
- 14:35Speaker 6: come early that year.
- 14:37Speaker 7: Of course, it was the.
- 14:37Speaker 6: Sixties, so at that point, I don't know what was it.
- 14:40Speaker 6: The pending and believe me, the perils that befall people
- 14:46Speaker 6: who do jobs like the sailors who still freight.
- 14:52Speaker 7: My mother I've told you this before.
- 14:56Speaker 6: You know that was her job for most of her
- 14:59Speaker 6: banking career, was writing letters of credit securing freighters. And
- 15:06Speaker 6: the perils that you know, those men and women face
- 15:14Speaker 6: is not to be trivialized. But I just as I
- 15:18Speaker 6: watched it, I was almost braced for it. And maybe
- 15:21Speaker 6: that's why it was notable, because I was bracing for somebody.
- 15:25Speaker 19: Well, you know, if this was the first really sign
- 15:28Speaker 19: of global climate change really causing it, I.
- 15:32Speaker 6: Was waiting for it. And maybe it's kicked dog syndrome.
- 15:36Speaker 6: I'm so used to it always being wound in there.
- 15:40Speaker 6: It's like the Katie Couric piece she just did with
- 15:43Speaker 6: John Fetterman.
- 15:45Speaker 7: Do we have the clip of that?
- 15:46Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 15:47Speaker 15: I just can you consider some of Donald Trump's behaviors
- 15:51Speaker 15: and policies like deploying federal forces to US cities, undermining
- 15:56Speaker 15: the Department of Justice. Is independence tempting to overturn the
- 16:01Speaker 15: twenty I.
- 16:02Speaker 6: Can't take, I can't take, I can't take anymore. And
- 16:05Speaker 6: we'll get to Fetterman's answer because he keeps not answering
- 16:08Speaker 6: her question, and she keeps re asking is he an undemocratic?
- 16:14Speaker 6: Blessed Fetterman for you know, basically charge, I'm a Democrat
- 16:18Speaker 6: and I do these whatever. But in this world where
- 16:22Speaker 6: Katie Couric passes for journalism, I just I felt braced
- 16:29Speaker 6: every time another story would pop up about the fiftieth
- 16:32Speaker 6: anniversary of the loss of the Edmund Fitzgerald kept waiting
- 16:38Speaker 6: for that expert from Noah or Nora Ad or Gonad
- 16:44Speaker 6: or where whatever agency it was that was going to
- 16:47Speaker 6: come out and claim it. Oh, you know, those gales
- 16:50Speaker 6: of November came early because of human activity. It was
- 16:53Speaker 6: the co two levels and this was really the first
- 16:57Speaker 6: indication that it's just me. And so when it didn't happen,
- 17:04Speaker 6: it's like coming to the top of a staircase and
- 17:07Speaker 6: you expect another step there and you stumbled.
- 17:11Speaker 7: Oh god, I thought there were.
- 17:13Speaker 6: Thirteen steps in any event on this Saturday morning, so
- 17:17Speaker 6: many other things, But I don't know if you shared
- 17:20Speaker 6: that kind of weird feeling of there. I was expecting
- 17:24Speaker 6: something more going on there. Thank you for allowing us
- 17:28Speaker 6: to be of service to you. Katie Couric there trying
- 17:32Speaker 6: to drag John Fetterman into her mad little world. I'm
- 17:35Speaker 6: going to debunk a lot of the bunk that was
- 17:38Speaker 6: spewing out.
- 17:39Speaker 7: Of her cake hole.
- 17:41Speaker 6: And a notable Central Virginian herself, She and her sister
- 17:46Speaker 6: are woven deeply into the fabric of our flagship, said he.
- 17:51Speaker 6: The cancer center that helped me beat where I went
- 17:54Speaker 6: every week to beat my lymphomas, named the Curic Center.
- 17:59Speaker 6: It's a name for Emily Curric, a state senator who,
- 18:01Speaker 6: unlike her sister, actually went and tried to do some
- 18:04Speaker 6: things like right legislation and such. But you know, Katie
- 18:11Speaker 6: tried to defame publicly in front of millions and millions
- 18:16Speaker 6: of people, dear personal friends of mine. So she's not
- 18:19Speaker 6: getting any slack from this Central Virginia broadcaster and said,
- 18:25Speaker 6: but she's okay. So she was NBC News anchor, so
- 18:29Speaker 6: what you know, she was better at attracting attention to herself.
- 18:34Speaker 6: So she got the gig. I mean, you know, faster
- 18:36Speaker 6: than you can say, Nick Flint's that's what all these
- 18:39Speaker 6: people are about. It's it's do something that attracts attention
- 18:43Speaker 6: to yourself, you know, and and and and then you know,
- 18:46Speaker 6: you get the gig, and it's momentary or it's a
- 18:49Speaker 6: step in the right direction.
- 18:50Speaker 20: It's set about disrupting the class by attracting attention to yourself.
- 18:56Speaker 1: That is the name of this job. It's called digny.
- 19:01Speaker 6: That's why you know, I'm what they call a late
- 19:04Speaker 6: bloomer in the world of national or nationwide distributed broadcast.
- 19:09Speaker 6: And maybe that's why I'm different than everyone else, because
- 19:12Speaker 6: I really don't give a crap.
- 19:14Speaker 7: I care about you, and I care about what you need.
- 19:16Speaker 6: And this gas lighting that people like Katie Couric, you know,
- 19:22Speaker 6: with at least she's got a microphone, unlike guys like
- 19:29Speaker 6: James Carville who sit on their barka lounger six feet
- 19:33Speaker 6: away from their laptop and holler at the CNN anchor, Barry,
- 19:39Speaker 6: can you get by.
- 19:40Speaker 7: The microphone, James? Please? You're supposed to be a communications guy.
- 19:44Speaker 7: Pain in my urs.
- 19:46Speaker 6: But her efforts to tar and feather Trump is being
- 19:50Speaker 6: undemocratic in this sit down with John Fetterman, is just
- 19:56Speaker 6: let's tear it.
- 19:57Speaker 15: About Trump's behaviors and policy, like deploying federal forces to
- 20:02Speaker 15: US cities.
- 20:03Speaker 6: Katie, have you noticed the FBI branches in all of
- 20:09Speaker 6: the cities. I mean, if you really want to say
- 20:13Speaker 6: there should be no federal forces, let's get rid of
- 20:16Speaker 6: all the federal anything in your city. Is it New
- 20:20Speaker 6: York still, is it Los Angeles? Or is it some
- 20:23Speaker 6: you know enclave in central Virginia?
- 20:26Speaker 7: Is it Yogaville?
- 20:28Speaker 6: Which is an actual It's an actual place in central Virginia.
- 20:34Speaker 6: I don't know where she holds up these days. I'm
- 20:37Speaker 6: sure it's some you know, eighteenth century farmhouse, but great
- 20:46Speaker 6: goggly muglis. You know the mischaracterizations, oh, federal troops in it.
- 20:52Speaker 6: Can you at least pretend you used to be a
- 20:55Speaker 6: newsperson and report that the federal troops are sent to

- 24:12Speaker 11: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 11: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 11: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or

- 24:31Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer and

- 28:18Speaker 18: You had set about disrupting the class by.
- 28:21Speaker 24: Attracting attention to yourself.
- 28:25Speaker 1: That is the name of this John.
- 28:27Speaker 14: You know.
- 28:27Speaker 1: It's called dig me First Thing Today by Joe Thomas
- 28:33Speaker 1: on the Talk Media Network, All natural and free of
- 28:36Speaker 1: artificial intelligence.
- 28:38Speaker 6: You know there's an economy to that as well. There's
- 28:41Speaker 6: there's an entire economy based on hey check me out,
- 28:45Speaker 6: Hey dig me. It's the clickbait economy. I'm not sure
- 28:49Speaker 6: what exactly. The commerce is for mostly it is for database,
- 28:56Speaker 6: it's for data. We learned a lot about how political
- 29:00Speaker 6: parties are making big money and mostly political consultants are
- 29:05Speaker 6: making big money on selling data, and this is why
- 29:12Speaker 6: clickbait and all this stuff happens.
- 29:14Speaker 7: So yesterday we had an interview with.
- 29:15Speaker 6: A fellow who runs a political party, is a chairman
- 29:20Speaker 6: of a Republican party, and he's mad because the state
- 29:25Speaker 6: party won't do more to help candidates win elections. Obviously,
- 29:32Speaker 6: this close to a bunch of GOP losses an election,
- 29:36Speaker 6: go figure. But he's mad because there's all this data
- 29:39Speaker 6: out there that costs pennies, but the political party consultants
- 29:44Speaker 6: are charging nickels for it, and so he's mad about that.
- 29:52Speaker 6: But it's also a litmus test into what exactly drives
- 29:58Speaker 6: this attracting attention to yourself economy. Where you know, if
- 30:04Speaker 6: you're a political candidate like Marjorie Taylor Green, you want
- 30:08Speaker 6: to be president in twenty twenty eight, it's a good
- 30:11Speaker 6: way to do it. Start taking shots at the current president.
- 30:16Speaker 6: And it's Washron's repeat. We've been here before, and not
- 30:20Speaker 6: just with Donald Trump. You know, Hillary Clinton didn't do
- 30:24Speaker 6: it to Barack Obama, but there were other people. Barack
- 30:27Speaker 6: Obama and Hillary Clinton both did it to George W. Bush.
- 30:35Speaker 7: George W.
- 30:36Speaker 6: Bush did it to Bill Clinton, and even within primaries.
- 30:42Speaker 6: You know, primary candidates, it's one of the easiest ways
- 30:46Speaker 6: to get attention for yourself and drive up contributions is
- 30:51Speaker 6: take a position against the incumbent. You got the two
- 30:57Speaker 6: candidates in New York running against Kathy Hokel. My god,
- 31:01Speaker 6: she's just trying. I mean, it's almost as if the
- 31:04Speaker 6: New York Republican Party is paying Kathy Hokel to do
- 31:08Speaker 6: dumbass stuff. Now she's talking about as if businesses weren't
- 31:13Speaker 6: fleeing New York in record numbers because of Zeyfod mad
- 31:17Speaker 6: money and his Marxist New York moscow on the Hudson,
- 31:24Speaker 6: as Ray called it in an email after his election.
- 31:28Speaker 6: But Kathy Hokel's like, yeah, I'm going to raise business
- 31:30Speaker 6: taxes too, their beach, trying to out Marxist each other.
- 31:34Speaker 6: I don't know where New Yorkers are going to work
- 31:37Speaker 6: because Zayfod is calling on New Yorkers to protest Starbucks,
- 31:41Speaker 6: which I'm fine with. I don't buy coffee from Starbucks.
- 31:45Speaker 6: I've got my own blend at one twenty seven dot
- 31:48Speaker 6: Coffee sells slip that plug right past you, didn't I
- 31:54Speaker 6: But it's a whole economy built on attracting attention to yourself,
- 31:58Speaker 6: whether you're the view or and yet, yeah, there's a
- 32:04Speaker 6: degree of it, but mine is a soft core thing.
- 32:06Speaker 6: I want you to feel like I'm taking care of
- 32:09Speaker 6: the things you need taking care of. I'm here laying
- 32:12Speaker 6: out some eggs and bacon for you. I'm not asking
- 32:17Speaker 6: you to call all your friends and say, did you
- 32:20Speaker 6: hear what Joe Thomas said this morning? But that's what
- 32:23Speaker 6: this clickbait economy is driven on. And sometimes people just
- 32:28Speaker 6: say crazy ass stuff simply to get you to call
- 32:31Speaker 6: your friends and.
- 32:32Speaker 19: Say, did you hear what Tucker Carlson said? Did you
- 32:36Speaker 19: hear what Mark Levin said about Tucker? And look, it's
- 32:38Speaker 19: working because here I am consuming times on a busy
- 32:42Speaker 19: Saturday morning talking about it.
- 32:44Speaker 7: But it's.
- 32:46Speaker 6: My inbox is full of people. Oh my gosh, Marjorie
- 32:48Speaker 6: Taylor Green is mad at Trump. He must really be
- 32:51Speaker 6: screwing up. And that's interesting to me. The amount of
- 32:54Speaker 6: people who are taking Marjorie Taylor Green's side is indicative
- 32:58Speaker 6: of how many people are quietly supporting Donald Trump because
- 33:04Speaker 6: they didn't want to be the one saying I don't
- 33:06Speaker 6: support Donald Trump until Marjorie Taylor Green comes out and
- 33:11Speaker 6: starts doing it, and they're like, Okay, if Marjorie Taylor
- 33:14Speaker 6: Green's doing it, then I'm okay doing it.
- 33:17Speaker 7: Uh.
- 33:17Speaker 6: And these people it's like rats from a sinking freighter
- 33:20Speaker 6: on Lake Superior. You see what I did there. Andy
- 33:25Speaker 6: is hanging on the line at four three four eight
- 33:28Speaker 6: A two four two one seven. Let me get line
- 33:30Speaker 6: two in here as well and get you on hold
- 33:32Speaker 6: while I chat with Andy for a second. Good morning,
- 33:34Speaker 6: who's this first thing this morning? This is Matt, Hey, Matt,
- 33:38Speaker 6: longtime no speak? Can you hang on for a moment? Sure,
- 33:42Speaker 6: see that's my New York upbringing.
- 33:43Speaker 7: Hey, it's good to hear you a long time no
- 33:45Speaker 7: talk is Sit on hold for a little while. Andy,
- 33:48Speaker 7: thank you for hanging on, wils.
- 33:50Speaker 25: I'm actually I set my alarm at four point fifty
- 33:53Speaker 25: two to be able to hear what your take is.
- 33:57Speaker 7: So is the morning?
- 33:59Speaker 6: You know?
- 33:59Speaker 25: So?
- 34:00Speaker 6: Clark and Alabama sent me a photograph of what dawn
- 34:03Speaker 6: over northern Alabama looks like, and I mean, it looks
- 34:06Speaker 6: like one of those photographs you get on one of
- 34:08Speaker 6: those daily devotional cards.
- 34:11Speaker 7: It's beautiful.
- 34:12Speaker 6: The north star is just brilliant, you know, in his
- 34:15Speaker 6: refraction that looks like across the sunrise. How is morning
- 34:20Speaker 6: over Sarasota treating you? Well?
- 34:24Speaker 20: I'm I live in one of these or wellingan neighborhoods
- 34:28Speaker 20: that they don't.
- 34:30Speaker 25: Encourage a lot of things. And one of the things that.
- 34:32Speaker 7: I did, going outside is one of them. I'm afraid.
- 34:36Speaker 6: I'm afraid to ask the going outside in the morning
- 34:39Speaker 6: is something you're the homeowners' association is against you being outside.
- 34:44Speaker 25: So I drove. I drove myself over to.
- 34:49Speaker 20: The east coast of Florida on Thursday, and then I
- 34:53Speaker 20: had a friend and his wife that accompanied me. It
- 34:57Speaker 20: was the first ever and now Citizen Journalist Foundation.
- 35:04Speaker 7: That's great.
- 35:05Speaker 20: Let's break the first words, right, that's citizen right, and
- 35:10Speaker 20: you talk about this all the time legal citizens.
- 35:14Speaker 25: And the journalist.
- 35:16Speaker 20: Part is that people go to journalism school to study
- 35:22Speaker 20: the craft, right or your or summer self taught like
- 35:25Speaker 20: you right?
- 35:26Speaker 6: Well, yeah, and Matt is what he went to school for.
- 35:29Speaker 6: The guy hanging on the line as actually somebody who's
- 35:32Speaker 6: who went to school for journalism?
- 35:34Speaker 20: Go ahead, and so the foundation was formed to support
- 35:42Speaker 20: James O'Keefe's work. Now, I had, as a non participant
- 35:51Speaker 20: in trying to fund previous elections, been chosen as a
- 35:57Speaker 20: great person to fund the undercover work at the Senate level,
- 36:03Speaker 20: and so for the twenty twenty election. And so I'm
- 36:07Speaker 20: sitting with James O'Keefe as they're rolling out the Antifa
- 36:11Speaker 20: story and he comes into this little private room and
- 36:17Speaker 20: says to me, can you.
- 36:19Speaker 25: Do fifteen thousand?
- 36:22Speaker 20: And I said, I'm only in so I for fifteen
- 36:25Speaker 20: thousand dollars. I bought all those initial five hundred dollars tickets.
- 36:31Speaker 20: I wasn't outed until the middle of September as the
- 36:35Speaker 20: funding source. And so, you know, this is twenty twenty twenty,
- 36:41Speaker 20: and I had already moved to Florida just because of
- 36:44Speaker 20: you know, just aging out and also, you know, monetizing
- 36:49Speaker 20: my life's work from I had probably the most s
- 36:52Speaker 20: well second largest track and field building company and history,
- 36:58Speaker 20: and I was my of tizing my life's work.
- 37:02Speaker 7: And well, yeah, you deserve the things you worked hard for.
- 37:05Speaker 6: We've got a break coming up here, Andy. So I
- 37:07Speaker 6: don't want you to lose the punchline.
- 37:09Speaker 20: So so i'm I'm. They actually had it at Trump's
- 37:17Speaker 20: and he wasn't there. But turns out I'd never been
- 37:20Speaker 20: to mar A Lago. And on the way home, one
- 37:24Speaker 20: of the things that Randy, who is the guy gets
- 37:27Speaker 20: money out of my pockets, he gave me right over there,
- 37:31Speaker 20: told me that one of the things that Trump did
- 37:34Speaker 20: was kick Epstein out of and being able to even
- 37:40Speaker 20: show up at his place there at mar A Lago.
- 37:44Speaker 25: That's right, I remember that he was the child pedophile.
- 37:47Speaker 7: Yeah, he was.
- 37:48Speaker 6: That's why you know he calls him a creep and
- 37:51Speaker 6: he's I mean, vot separates against him, and you know,
- 37:54Speaker 6: it's interesting you open up something we talked about a
- 37:56Speaker 6: little bit on yesterday morning's program Andy hang On, in.

- 41:08Speaker 27: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year,
- 41:12Speaker 27: even sadder. Most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 27: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.

- 41:24Speaker 27: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle

- 44:11Speaker 1: On your to do list, Putting the radio on is
- 44:14Speaker 1: the first thing today.
- 44:19Speaker 6: Hey hey, hey hey, nobody even knows what those are anymore.
- 44:28Speaker 6: So we record the song Dennis Sticks doesn't want you
- 44:32Speaker 6: in there anymore anyway, We record the lyrics YouTube and
- 44:50Speaker 6: my substack page, you know, or or my Twitter feed,
- 44:54Speaker 6: my my rumble account. But actually that could probably cover
- 44:58Speaker 6: for both of those. Uh this morning, first thing today
- 45:02Speaker 6: by Joe Thomas and Andy was just explaining that you know,
- 45:07Speaker 6: and I understand, and you weren't listening yesterday when we
- 45:10Speaker 6: were breaking down the way this.
- 45:12Speaker 7: Is miscop normally have like I don't know you were.
- 45:16Speaker 6: You were at merro Lago and and and you know,
- 45:18Speaker 6: there's a lot going on. And I really appreciate your
- 45:21Speaker 6: support of you know, oh MG Media, O'Keefe media group.
- 45:28Speaker 7: But they have this.
- 45:29Speaker 20: Everybody needs to know that the Citizen Journalists Foundation can
- 45:34Speaker 20: take tax deductible donations, whereas the o'keef Media Group wasn't
- 45:40Speaker 20: really set up for that.
- 45:41Speaker 7: Oh yeah, yeah, so that's a better way.
- 45:45Speaker 25: Just they raised over.
- 45:46Speaker 20: A million dollars just as I was in this little
- 45:51Speaker 20: place where amazing, But that's that shows photographs and people
- 45:59Speaker 20: were like, how did you get this big thing in here?
- 46:01Speaker 25: I called my camera big dog.
- 46:04Speaker 6: And old school, But I mean, this doesn't this And
- 46:08Speaker 6: he speak to the fact that Americans realize that the
- 46:13Speaker 6: legacy media, I think is the phrase that everyone's using
- 46:16Speaker 6: now is just a PR firm and nobody's actually telling
- 46:21Speaker 6: you what's going on. They're telling you what somebody wants
- 46:23Speaker 6: you to think about what's going on.
- 46:26Speaker 25: Yeah, no, that's so true.
- 46:28Speaker 20: But I've always I've always gotten my and I remember
- 46:31Speaker 20: reading the Wall Street Journal and also the New York
- 46:35Speaker 20: Times probably at age twenty and reading both of those
- 46:41Speaker 20: and going, this isn't news and just put it down.
- 46:44Speaker 25: Didn't use is the reasons ever.
- 46:47Speaker 6: But we have to have places to go find that resource.
- 46:50Speaker 6: So appreciate the story from.
- 46:51Speaker 25: Oh, well you're guys.
- 46:53Speaker 20: And so I'm going to be referring, you know, James
- 46:56Speaker 20: people to y'all probably try and get the winner of
- 47:00Speaker 20: the first time.
- 47:01Speaker 25: I'm sorry, I don't have my notes, but.
- 47:04Speaker 20: The first winner of the award was just incredible.
- 47:09Speaker 25: I mean, you know, the stuff.
- 47:11Speaker 20: That they're publishing right now, putting out there and I
- 47:14Speaker 20: watch all this stuff. I personally watch it. It almost
- 47:17Speaker 20: makes me nauseous. Oh and it's hard.
- 47:20Speaker 6: And this is why so many people say they don't
- 47:23Speaker 6: trust the news anymore. A fellow who actually has a
- 47:27Speaker 6: degree in journalism, and I'm curious, Matt. You know, I
- 47:30Speaker 6: don't know what triggered you to call, and I appreciate
- 47:33Speaker 6: it as always, but yeah, I know you grew up
- 47:36Speaker 6: through you know, India inc Under your fingernails and journalism there,
- 47:41Speaker 6: you know, I'm not I know that we always had
- 47:44Speaker 6: the salacious headlines on newspapers in the little boxes there
- 47:49Speaker 6: to get you to drop the quarters in and things
- 47:52Speaker 6: like that. So I'm not sure it's a new industry,
- 47:54Speaker 6: but it's it's it's almost a transitory one. They don't
- 47:58Speaker 6: care in these media outlets if you stay and listen
- 48:03Speaker 6: or come back every day like I do.
- 48:07Speaker 9: Uh.
- 48:07Speaker 6: They just want your information at that onset and then
- 48:10Speaker 6: they can traffic in that time and time and over
- 48:13Speaker 6: and over and over again. Rather than saying, hey, I've
- 48:15Speaker 6: got a million or fifty and we just did an audit.
- 48:18Speaker 6: I think this show reaches fifty two million people now,
- 48:22Speaker 6: you know so. But these clickbaiters, they just want to
- 48:28Speaker 6: have that data so they can sell it over and
- 48:30Speaker 6: over again. And the rest of it is, I guess,
- 48:34Speaker 6: secondary to their business model.
- 48:39Speaker 7: Is there a question in all of that.
- 48:41Speaker 6: I'm not sure anymore. I'm really I'm not about you.
- 48:45Speaker 6: You've caught me.
- 48:46Speaker 7: I don't know there was.
- 48:47Speaker 6: Originally I initially called to talk about the New York
- 48:53Speaker 6: State Republicans.
- 48:54Speaker 7: Oh okay, they now, But now.
- 48:57Speaker 28: I find now, I find that I have to defend
- 49:01Speaker 28: myself against a malicious slander.
- 49:03Speaker 7: What no, I do not.
- 49:07Speaker 28: I do not have a degree in journalism. I learned.
- 49:13Speaker 28: I learned reporting by working at newspapers.
- 49:17Speaker 7: Okay, okay, okay.
- 49:19Speaker 28: And the thing we found when we hired people that
- 49:24Speaker 28: had degrees in journalism, the first thing we had to
- 49:27Speaker 28: do was retrain them.
- 49:33Speaker 7: So good, so good, set down the side I mean.
- 49:38Speaker 28: And again, A lot of the papers that I worked
- 49:41Speaker 28: at were small and medium town papers where if you
- 49:49Speaker 28: publish something wrong about somebody, they would come storming in
- 49:54Speaker 28: your front door.
- 49:56Speaker 7: You know.
- 49:56Speaker 28: These were places where the reporters were listed in the
- 50:00Speaker 28: local phone directory.
- 50:02Speaker 7: Yes no, documented all of them at home, yes no.
- 50:09Speaker 28: And if I was walking down the street, if I
- 50:12Speaker 28: was walking down Main Street, I would be accosted by
- 50:17Speaker 28: half a dozen people who were saying, I like what
- 50:20Speaker 28: you wrote about that, or I didn't like what you
- 50:22Speaker 28: wrote about that, or here's something else you ought to
- 50:24Speaker 28: write about. And it's it's just in a small town,
- 50:31Speaker 28: people know who you are. There is no anonymity. But
- 50:37Speaker 28: when you have I remember I had to explain to
- 50:41Speaker 28: a photographer one time that if the New York Post
- 50:47Speaker 28: publishes a picture of a guy jumping out of a
- 50:50Speaker 28: burning building, it's just a picture of a guy jumping
- 50:54Speaker 28: out of a burning building, because in New York City,
- 50:58Speaker 28: everybody is anonymous. If we published a picture of somebody
- 51:04Speaker 28: jumping out of a burning building locally, that would be
- 51:09Speaker 28: offensive because half the people in town would know that person.
- 51:13Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's It's so true. And I said this.
- 51:18Speaker 6: I teased Sean Hannity one so actually his his producer
- 51:22Speaker 6: Sweet Baby James, about that we are on a panel together,
- 51:26Speaker 6: and I said, you guys have it so easy. It's
- 51:28Speaker 6: like Nancy Pelosi is never going to bump into Sean
- 51:31Speaker 6: Hannity at a grocery store. Me, on the other hand,
- 51:35Speaker 6: every time I opened the mouth of my mouth, somebody
- 51:38Speaker 6: is calling me saying, you know, I know that guy,
- 51:40Speaker 6: and he's not really that bad. So I mean, you
- 51:42Speaker 6: have to think about that because and maybe that's part
- 51:47Speaker 6: of the problem is we've we've grown generic, and we
- 51:51Speaker 6: don't we don't think about people as people. We think
- 51:55Speaker 6: about them as you know, commerce, as data points as
- 52:01Speaker 6: But also.
- 52:03Speaker 28: With these media outlets, and I'm thinking now places like
- 52:07Speaker 28: the New York Times, YEA and the Washington Post, both
- 52:12Speaker 28: of which are nothing but propaganda mills. Now they have
- 52:17Speaker 28: lost their integrity. And I keep thinking back one of
- 52:22Speaker 28: the one of the best comments I got from anybody
- 52:27Speaker 28: who was from a village official in this town I
- 52:31Speaker 28: was working in, and he said, well, I read something
- 52:34Speaker 28: in your competitor's paper and I had to get a
- 52:36Speaker 28: copy of your paper to see if it was true.
- 52:41Speaker 6: Now that's high compliment right there. Imagine this is but this.
- 52:45Speaker 28: Is, this is the point that so many of these
- 52:49Speaker 28: news outlets have lost.
- 52:51Speaker 7: My name is Bobby.
- 52:52Speaker 4: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
- 52:55Speaker 4: My victory was going from a wheelchair to becoming a
