Wicked Radio 2-12: Voter ID Has A Real Shot, RIP James Van Der Beek, & The CA Superbowl Scam · Wicked Radio with Bill Adams

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Hey, yesterday might have seemed like a normal Wednesday in
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: your life. I certainly hope it was a good one.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, though, it was one of the
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: biggest days. Oh. Normally, anything that happens on.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: The house floor is boring and it's convoluted, and it's corrupted,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: and it's complicated and it's confusing. Yesterday was one of
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: the biggest days. Honestly, sounds like hyperbole. I promise it's
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: not in our nation's history until the next biggest day,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: which will happen, is if the Save Act gets past
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: in the Senate, which may happen. We are closer than
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: we ever have been to getting real voter idea and
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: securing our elections because of what happened yesterday. I mean that,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: and I mean this too. In our lifetime, all of
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: you listening, watching me, all of us together, we have
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: never had an issue that'll come into our lives as
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: clear and as black and white and as simplistic as
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: voter id ever, which is why it's a beautiful thing
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: to see.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Everybody that poses it.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Anybody that opposes voter idea as a crook usually can't
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: say that. Well, you know, certain circumstances and this and
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: then nope, no, I mean it. Anybody that opposes this
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: is an absolute crook. And we have some crooks out there.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about that as well, but let's get into it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Thanks you for finding the Wicked Radio livestream. Had some problems,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: and we may be having problems on X again today.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know why the live stream is not popping up,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: but still people are finding the audio podcast and on
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: UH and I'll repost it on X if we still
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: have problems, and on Facebook and YouTube as well, but
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: the audio podcast wherever you like to get him as well.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Let's get right to it. What happened on the House
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: floor yesterday? It looks boring, looks kind of just like
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: a regular cheesy day in the House floor, but very
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: very important.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: On this vote. The a's are two eighteen and the
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: nayser two thirteen. The bill is passed without objection. A
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: motion to reconsider is laid on the table. Who do
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: you think of kind of a question? I guess it was.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I guess they were mostly gone after the vote or something.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Who who do you think it was that went whew?
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Obviously a few. My money's on the gun toting Mama
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: from Colorado, Lauren Bobert. But my guess is her. But anyway,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: it passes. What does it mean now it goes to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the Senate? Real voter id Now what are some of
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the what are some of the politicians saying about it?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Haven't heard too much from them to support this until
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: and this is very important in the story, until most
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: of the country spoke up and said, we support this
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and we want this. This is why I always say
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: it is anything you get from me, ever, it's this.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: They hear you. Your voice does matter.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: It's easy to fall into that trap because we've been
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: so conditioned, so we've been so beaten down to think
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: that our voices don't matter.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: They do.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: This is exactly why President Trump, for the past three
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: four months especially, has been saying time and time again
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and posting and posting and posting again, the national popularity
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: among all people, all demographics, all parties, a voter idea
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that we wanted this is and he's tagging these representatives
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: as well and showing them that we want this.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: This is why it's so important.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: And now they're all coming out of the woodwork to
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: support it, aren't they. Let's start with some of these
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: guys here' steve'scalise. Haven't heard from steve'scalise in a while?
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Well, let me tell you, and it's been brought up.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Try getting on an airplane and flying home tonight without
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: showing a picture. I D try going into a bar
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: without showing a picture. I D try getting into the
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: Democrat National Convention without showing an ID. They required it,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: the same Democrats that are saying things like Jim Crow
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: said you have to have an idea to get into
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: their own convention.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Because that's a great point, that's a really good one
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: that a lot of people haven't said. You would have
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: to show a voter ID and go through a security
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: check to get into the DNC convention. But they don't
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: watch it but you But it's some But it's Jim
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Crow laws if you do it for an election, right, Well,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: here's Ted Cruz. Let's see what the Senate now. Ted
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Cruz has been championing this for many, many years. So
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: here's what Ted says yesterday. He's happy about it. Ted's
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: ready to go.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: The House just passed the Save America Act. The Senate
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: needs to take it up and pass it. I'm an
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: original sponsor of the Save America Act. This is common
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: sense legislation. This is legis that requires proof that you're
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: an American citizen in order to register to vote, and
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: it requires a photo ID to go in and vote.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Texas already requires a photo ID. It's an easy, common
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: sense step to avoid voter fraud. The vast majority of
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Americans support photo ID, and yet Senate Democrats are doing
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: everything they can to block it because they.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Want Well it's true, Ted, So now you need to
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: get to work.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: So now the ball truly is in your hands to
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: get this to work and to force other senators, some
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: of them Republicans, who are giving you a static on this, Ted,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski from Alaska.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Imagine that, John.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I said this yesterday, John Fetterman, the Democrat, Democrat senator
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: from Pennsylvania. He's ready to vote for it. Lisa Murkowski,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Republican senator from Alaska.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Not so much. That's a problem. Ted. You need to
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: work on that. You have the influence in there.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Get it done all right now, So where are we
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: in the Senate before we start to play?
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: And I just cheer. Already picked a handful of Democrats.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: You can pick dozens of them today, I just found
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: few some of these ridiculous arguments they're making. But we
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: have to get the common sense argument out of the
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: way first, so you can kind of juxtapose it and
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: play it on two picture screens to see the insanity
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: of the argument, the stupidity of the argument that they're
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: making against voter I D But okay, after we heard
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: from Ted Cruz, where does it stand in the Senate? Now, well,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: we've got this and this is very big. John Thune,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: majority leader in the Senate, has signed on to this thing.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: This is big, and he explains.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: What should non citizens be voting in American elections? The
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: answer is no, And the Democrats have taken a hard
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: position that it's okay. Now, the law already prevents that.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: But if that's true, then why wouldn't we want to
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: put into law something that would require when you go
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: to vote, that you prove you're a United States citizen.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: And that's all the Save Act does. And so they
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: can cry and lament this actually being voted on, but
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: I'd be hard pressed to have to defend a position
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: that doesn't believe that you have to be an American
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: citizen to vote in an American election.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Right, great, okay, So get everybody to play along, John
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: finally and that guy by the way, okay, playing ball now,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: that's great again. And I make this point again and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: again and again. What got them to move? Why are
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: we here this morning talking about to say about voter
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: idea having a real shot that we really could secure
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: our elections finally in our country when every other country
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: in the world does it. Why why are we here?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Because they heard you. I hear it all the time.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: You guys drop me in the comments all the time.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: It's that it doesn't matter anyway, whatever, Then I gotta
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: listen to us whatever. Yes they did, Yes they did.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: They did hear it because these national polls kept coming out,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and your president kept posting it and reposting it and
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: reminding all of these politicians. If you want to keep
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: your job, if you want to stay in power, if
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you want to get voted in again and do whatever
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the hell you do to make money legally or not,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: you better get this thing passed.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: That's what made the difference.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: So why is it important that John Thune signed on
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: CENIM majority leader signs on as a co sponsor. Now
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: that means the bill has forty five senators signed on
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: to Coast answered the thing getting closer and closer to
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: passing this. That's absolutely massive, all right, you know the
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: common sense. Nobody even has to explain it to you.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: If anybody with half a brain selling who's not a crook,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: wants voter ID, what are the Democrat.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Arguments against this?
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: Not all?
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Then they're not all Democrats. But what's the main Democrat
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: argument against this? Like I said, I cherry picked a
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: bunch of them. Here's Catherine Clark, here's another Massachusetts beauty.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: They caught her in the hallway. That's why you hear
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the heels clicking down on the floor. What's the reason?
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: What reason could you possibly come up with the vote
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: against the voteride?
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: Well, Park, you are.
• 7:34
  Speaker 8: Saying that the Stay of America Act suppresses voters, but
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: over seventy percent of Democrat voters.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Actually support voter ID. What's your response to that? Why you?
• 7:43
  Speaker 8: Why are Democrats so missed the line with the base.
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: On this issue?
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: Listen, this Voting Act goes real beyond voter ID. So
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: you're comfortable with saying to women in this country who've
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: been married and changed their name that you now have
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: to rale go to your clerk, fill out at David's
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: pay for a passport. Most people don't have a birth
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: certificate or a marriage certificate that they can prove. We
• 8:11
  Speaker 7: know this is what this is about. It's about voter suppression.
• 8:15
  Speaker 7: It's about suppressing women's votes, full.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Stop, full stop.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: What an absolute freaking crook, how insulting is that they've
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: insulted every bit of their base. They've insulted every bit
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: of America. They've insulted women, they've insulted African Americans, they've
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: insulted people who are newly naturalized.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Citizens to this country. This is voter suppression.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: They don't have the ability to get a voterriety and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: change their name and go to the clerk, So they
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: don't have that ability. What are you saying? What are
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: you saying as a woman, as a female politician who's
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: made it in this country? What are you saying?
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: What you just said there was they're not smart enough.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: They're not smart enough to get.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: A voter idea and change. It's just again, I'll say
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: it again. In our lifetime, we'll never see another issue
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: that is as simplistic, as basic, as common sense, and
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: as black and white as this. If you are against
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: voter ID, you're trying to cheat elections. It is that simple.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: It's nothing.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: We'll never see a simpler issue. A lot of issues
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: have nuanced. Wow, it's different circumstances, and you know, you
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: know it's not all that different people have different experiences
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: with Nope, not this one. If you are against voter ID,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: you're trying to cheat elections and you are a crook.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Simple as that.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Let's go to another one. Here's another beauty representative Hillary.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I believe it's Skulton. Here's what she said, and I apologize.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: This is really loud and screechy. I tried to find
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: audio that wasn't this loud and overmodulated, but this is
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the best I could get.
• 9:47
  Speaker 8: Nearly seventy million married women in this country have changed
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: their last name, but their birth certificates don't reflect that.
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: In Michigan's third District alone, one hundred and sixty thousand
• 9:59
  Speaker 8: women could find themselves unable to register simply because when
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: they got married, they didn't change both their ID and
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: their birth certificate. A hundred.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: It's simple, they're What they're trying to do is throw
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: any argument out there that tried the Jim Crow thing
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: they've tried.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: The women can't.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Now now they're trying this one to see if it sticks.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: The women don't know how to change their idea. Again,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: how insulting is that to women? I would be so,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I would be so incensed and insulted as a female voter.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I'm insense because I have three women in my house.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I'm in sense that they're insulting them like you don't
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: have the ability to do that, that this is all.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: This is how desperate they are, which proves the point
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: again there are absolute and total crooks. If you're against
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: voter ID, you are a crook.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: And that's it.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Let's go to possibly who may be maybe when we
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: look back in history, the biggest crook of all, because
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: you know who else is chiming in on this, bury Obama.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Let's see what he says about this.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Let's see his post yesterday which got you know, in
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: digital media terms, you get ratioed. That means there's a
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: far more percentage of comments shooting down your argument than
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: there are likes.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Well, he got ratioed yesterday on this.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: One Barack Obama official ex account, and I'm sure it
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: was on the other social media channels as well. Republicans
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: are still trying to pass the Save Act, a bill
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: of Americans. Join blah blah blah blah blah, tell your
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: member of Congress to vote no.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah blah.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Crooks absolute crooks, and you're a crook. And I don't
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: mind calling you crook. Your events voter, I d you
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: are a crook. And he may be the biggest crook
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: of all. There they are. So we're close, guys, We're
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: close to this. One of the most impactful days in
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: American history was yesterday passing the House. The most impactful
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: day to save our elections, to secure this country will
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: be when it passes the Senate. And we're getting that close.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: But keep the pressure up. They do hear you. My
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: senators in the state of Florida are already on board.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: I'm all set with that, but you may be in
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: a state where the or not. Call your senators tell
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: them demand that they pass the Save Act.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: They do hear you. That's the one.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: That's the one takeaway, I promise you, they do hear you.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: That's why they're acting now on this. Finally, when they
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: could have decades ago on this in different forms, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: there have been different forms of this whole concept, by
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: the way, they keep getting shot down.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Not this time.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: All right, we got some sad news to talk about.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw this news as well, And yeah,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: this does fall into the category of celebrity news, but
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: still sad nonetheless. But I think, you know, I always
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: try to find the light in something. I think if
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: there's any light in the passing of James Vanderbeek, the actor.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: But it's a.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Warning to all of us, guys and girls and everybody,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: because there's a crazy incidence, especially of gen xers, of
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: colorectal cancer, and apparently that's what he died from, only
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: forty eight years old.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: How sad is that?
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Get your levels checked, get your colonoscopy. It's not the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: funnest thing in the world to do. Believe me, I
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: just had one last year. But you got to do
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: it and make sure that you're okay and you're healthy.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: This was him his video message on his birthday, I
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: think it was last March, talking about facing mortality.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Basically is what it was.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: And I'll play a little bit here and then bounce
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: around a little bit, but so sad. It feels so
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: sad for his family.
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: My birthday, and it has been the hardest year of
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: my life. And I wanted to share something that I
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: learned with y'all. When I was younger, I used to
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: define myself as an actor, right, which was never really
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: all that fulfilling. And then it became a husband and
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: that was much better. And then they became a father
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: and that was the ultimate. I could define myself then
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: as a loving, capable, strong, supportive husband, father, provider, steward
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: of the land that we're so lucky to live on.
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: And for a long time that felt like a really
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: good definition to the question who am I?
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: What am I?
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: And then this year I had to look my own
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: mortality in the eye.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: And he went on to say at the end there
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: and it's really really sad, But he went on to
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: say that that through facing this entire thing, through redefining
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: exactly what, he found his spirituality and looked at it.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: And I think it's sad that and it's human nature.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I guess it's when you're facing mortality, is when you
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: find you know, whatever you call spirituality, whatever you believe in.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: But he certainly did but again, if you want to
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: look at the takeaway on this, it's all of us.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Gain control of.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Your health as best as you possibly can. You can
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: do things even if you don't have insurance. You can
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: do things that stay healthy, stay away from the bad stuff,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: and get your levels checked and get a colonoscopy. Because
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: it's happening a lot. There's something they're going to look back.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Science is going to look back on this and say
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: that something happened to create the level of colorectal cancel,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: that it's happening in our country for young people.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: That guy was forty eight. Something. Something's off.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's the I don't know, maybe it's the medicine
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: they're given us.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's something, maybe it's antibiotics, no idea.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: I'm not a meta scientist or a doctor, but something's
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: wrong there too.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: That's happening way too often. So ALRP to him and.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: God bless his family. Talk about one other thing before
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: we get out of here today. One more little nugget
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: from the super Bowl. You're like, oh, I'm sick of
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: hearing about the super Bowl. I know, I get it,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: but this is really interesting. I think this is funny.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: It's really not about the Super Bowl. I think it
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: goes to show you the just absolutely insane tax laws
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: that are in some of our states, especially in this
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: case California. So the Super Bowl was in Santa Clara,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: San Francisco market where the forty nine ers played. So
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: apparently they have a jock tax in California, which I'm
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: sure is a popular thing to tax, right, I mean,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: you put that about, you know, you put that in
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: the state legislature. It's like, we gotta tax these superstar athletes.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: They're making millions playing a kid's game. I'm sure that
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: was popular. I'm sure it was until business is affected.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: So listen to this. So the Seahawks, as we know,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: unfortunately won the Super Bowl. I'm trying to embrace that
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: game from my memory. So they win the Super Bowl
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: and they get a certain jock tacks levied on them
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: for a number of days that they're in California. Here
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: this is relevant to the story. The Seahawks playing in
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: the NFC West. So they're in California just during the
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: season because in their division three times and this was
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: an extra game because of the Super Bowl. So they
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: played four total games in California where they have to
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: face this jock tas Sam Darnold, super Bowl winning quarterback.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Lost money playing and winning this game. Boomer A.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Sizen, the former NFL quarterback, and he's actually a great
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: radio guy from WFAN and New York. He actually explained
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: this really well yesterday, and his point is he doesn't
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: think he doesn't think any games, any super Bowl should
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: be played in the state of California ever. Again, he
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: says the National Football League's Player Association should say no,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: we're gonna stop this thing.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Is what Boomer said.
• 16:53
  Speaker 9: Per Bowl, the winning team, each player gets one hundred
• 16:57
  Speaker 9: and seventy eight thousand dollars. In other words, the Super
• 16:59
  Speaker 9: Bowl isn't a part of their salary. And because the
• 17:02
  Speaker 9: game was played in California. In California has a jock
• 17:06
  Speaker 9: tax and they look at duty days. So each team
• 17:12
  Speaker 9: spends seven days in the state of California, so those
• 17:15
  Speaker 9: are seven duty days, and they pierce your regular salary
• 17:20
  Speaker 9: at three point five percent. So he has to pay
• 17:24
  Speaker 9: when you when you take an account, he got the
• 17:27
  Speaker 9: one hundred and seventy eight thousand plus his overall salary,
• 17:31
  Speaker 9: he has to pay the state of California for spending
• 17:34
  Speaker 9: seven days there two hundred and forty nine thousand dollars.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: That's just so stupid.
• 17:40
  Speaker 9: Ye Bely it ends up costing him seventy one thousand dollars.
• 17:45
  Speaker 9: So if I'm the NFLPA, I'm like, hey, we're not
• 17:48
  Speaker 9: playing any more Super Bowls in you know, in California.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: We've seen a lot of comments on this, which are
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: fair as well and are good points to say, Oh,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: who can't. Oh they're super their athletes. Who the hell
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: cares how much they pay? So what big Dale? So
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: what until you start to lose, like some benefits from this,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: And what if it happened that the NFL Players Association
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: can you only love to protect their money and the
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: players will push for this now that they're aware of it.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: What if they do push back? And what if that
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: state loses teams and games and players.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: And super Bowls? It could be But what a what
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: a tax scam that is?
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Even though it's superstar spoiled athletes getting robbed, there's still
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: people getting robbed because of a ridiculous tax scam. So
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know, keep it in mind all right again,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: if I can share anything with you today, it's this.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Please get your health levels, your your blood levels checked
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: and get a colonoscopy if you're in your forties or
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: fifties or even ahead of that, because there is something
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: going on with this correctal cancer. If you take anything
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: away from the sad James Vanderbeek story, that should be it.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Something's going on. So make sure you stay healthy and
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: the area.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I promise you these politicians hear your voices.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: This is why they're acting on it now because all
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: these national polls have come out and the president is
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I'm saying you better vote for this voter ID save X.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: You better get it done. I'm telling you. They hear you,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: So get through to your senators and tell them to
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: pass it. Let's see what happens with that.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Eanks so finding me. I appreciate you still trouble with X.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on with that. I need
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: to work on that today. But you can still find
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: the replay on that and the replay on X and
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: YouTube and Facebook and the audio podcast wherever you like
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: to get them. Thanks for hanging out with me, it's
• 19:22
