• 1:24
  Speaker 2: by God right. And knowing what those are schooling up
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: in them so we're expert at it and then applying
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: them to a grateful constituency is exactly what American life
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: was built on. And it is the only path to happiness,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: and it is the only path to pardon the phrase,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: vaccinate you from the ills, the viruses that are the
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: American hater class, the keyboard warriors, the folks who will
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: try to set you up in your business to try
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: to ruin you. Those folks can't ruin you if you're
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: doing what God has called you onto this earth to do.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: And that's as simple as that. And that is Tedsday
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: and I am your nutshell there, James written, we're discussing
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: there's a story about President Trump.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Will get into it in a moment.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: In our first things asking federal employees to sign non
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: disclosure agreements because of leaks and whisper campaigns to friends
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: in the media. James writes in I had to sign
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: an NDA when I was the director of the Shamouse
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: show at Sea World, and I had to sign an
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: NDA when I was an intelligence officer at the DoD.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I can't believe this is even a story. If you're
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: trusted with proprietary information, sensitive information, or classified information, be
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: trustworthy and keep it secret and secure. And there needs
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: to be a piece of paper that says if you
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: fail in that, here's how we're going.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: To adjudicate it. So here is the story.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Trump administration is asking all current and future federal employees
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to sign non disclosure agreements as it tries to tighten
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: controls on leaks of non public government information. The move
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: comes as part of a wider push that officials have
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: linked to media links involving sensitive national security matters, including
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: reporting on US military operations and internal assessments tied to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: the Iran war and earlier Venezuela related operations, including using
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: that information to bet on polymarket. Texas Attorney General Ken
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Paxton easily won, as predicted on this program, the Republican
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: nomination for US Senate from Texas yesterday easily home four
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: term Senator John Cornyn. Paxton to the crowd yesterday.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: When everyone in Washington told him to abandon me, an
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: abandon the people of Texas, he didn't listen.
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: Instead, he gave his complete and total endorsement.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: The Republican Party had sent large bags of cash to
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: buy ads for Cornyn's re election campaign and did ignore
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: states like Virginia that could have used the help in
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: their redistricting battle. Cornan gave a short conspession speech in
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: which he said tonight, We've come up short.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: I've always supported the.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Republican ticket, and I intend to do so again. Meanwhile,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: in Texas primaries, Congressman Christian Menefee defeated longtime Congressman Al
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Green in the eighteenth district, and Colin Alred is back
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: in politics after trying and failing to unsee Ted Cruz.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: He's defeated Gershoman, Julie Johnson of the thirty third district
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: and the Democratic primary. Also in the runoff for the
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Texas Attorney General's office, Ken Paxton leaving that state, Senator
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: May's Middleton defeated Congressman Chip Roy. Roy said just a
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: little while ago and called and congratulated Mays Middleton for
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: his victory and the race of the Republican nomination. I
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: will have a full statement tomorrow onward, as he said,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: he will continue to endorse Middleton in the race for
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Attorney General. And those are some of our first things
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: on this Ted Steve morning. Oh, by the way, NASA

  Speaker 1: know the first thing today.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Ivy texty this morning. Thank you for joining me this
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: test text message. I think makes a lot of sense,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: but I want to nuance it a little bit for John.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: John writes in four three four eight A two four two.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: One seven, I think the Republican Party in the Senate
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: and the House are more about protecting themselves than doing
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: the work of the people. The frantic distribution of cash
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: and the crony election in the corn In election, as
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: you said, and the non participation in Virginia's election or
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: exemplary of this thought.
• 14:15
  Speaker 23: John.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I'm going to take that and see you and raise you.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: It's not just the Republican Party. The Republican Party is
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: just very very bad at covering it. And some of
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: it has to do with the fact that they are
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: not the Party of Santa Claus.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: See. The Democrats do the same thing.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: They are all about their cronies and making sure the
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: money goes to their friends just as much as the
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Republicans are. They're just better at covering it because they
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: pretend they're Santa Claus. They're in with a bag of
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: money and a bunch of giveaways that are all fraud.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: What did we find out yesterday on the program? One
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: hundred and eighty two billion dollars just in payments made
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: by Medicaid, Medicaid, Medicare and some other CMS programs that
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: should not have been paid either paid too much or underpaid.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: But somewhere somebody's form was misfilled out.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Let's just put it that way. But it's both parties.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: It's just the Democrats are better at shrugging it off
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: and saying, yes, so what's your point. Vote for the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: other guy and they'll cut your program for you. Oh no,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: I won't vote for the other guy and they'll cut
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: my program, because lord knows I can't.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I couldn't live without the government aid.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: July, we had to kick off the next two hundred
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: and fifty years of the United States at Freedom Fest
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: July eighth in Las Vegas. Mark Skousen was on with
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Us a little bit earlier, had to go do a
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: couple of other interviews in his back with US Freedomfest
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Dot com founder started this in two thousand and seven.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I was thinking, John, and when you said that that
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: was the belly of the beast, that was the beginnings
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: of too Big to Fail, George W. Bush and then
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Barack Obama redoubling the efforts, and then you had shovel
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: ready jobs under the directorship of Joe Biden. And we
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: know how good that worked out. I'm sure Hunter used
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: the same shovel ready resume to get his position with
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Bearisma Holdings. But you started freedom Fest right in the
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: belly of all this government spending, to say, whoa nelly?
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, you know, we.
• 16:37
  Speaker 24: Look back on those days and it was right in
• 16:40
  Speaker 24: the middle of this fine or the beginning of this
• 16:43
  Speaker 24: financial crisis. And as a matter of fact, in two
• 16:45
  Speaker 24: thousand and seven, we did have several speakers, including Peter
• 16:50
  Speaker 24: Schaft and a few others, who actually forecast that we
• 16:55
  Speaker 24: were headed for a financial crisis. And freedom Fest has
• 16:59
  Speaker 24: always done a pretty good job of anticipating big type
• 17:04
  Speaker 24: of events, and in fact, I think twenty eleven when
• 17:08
  Speaker 24: the tea party thing got started, it was also our
• 17:11
  Speaker 24: very first conference where we discussed bitcoin.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
• 17:16
  Speaker 24: Point at the time was under one hundred bucks and
• 17:19
  Speaker 24: now it's it's an eighty thousand. So I mean, these
• 17:23
  Speaker 24: are the kinds of things that we we hope that
• 17:28
  Speaker 24: we can stay ahead of what is going on in
• 17:33
  Speaker 24: the world and where we headed and so forth. And
• 17:37
  Speaker 24: of course this is well, this is the season where
• 17:42
  Speaker 24: we have a lot of crazy politics going on for.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Suure Well and you know, Mark Scownsen, founder of Freedom Fest,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: is on with us and we're headed out there July eighth.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: I hope you can join us, you know, Mark, I
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: know we had had a discount code. I hope it's
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: still good for any of our listeners who are trying
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: to make some travel plans. It was first thing one hundred.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Can we still use that? Can the listeners still use that?
• 18:07
  Speaker 25: Yes?
• 18:07
  Speaker 24: Absolutely absolutely, And we're going to have over one thousand people,
• 18:12
  Speaker 24: maybe as many as two thousand people coming, oh boy.
• 18:16
  Speaker 24: And yes, the code gives you one hundred dollars off
• 18:19
  Speaker 24: first things one hundred, the number one hundred that will
• 18:23
  Speaker 24: give you one hundred dollars off our fee. And then
• 18:26
  Speaker 24: we have negotiated lower prices. You know, they have these
• 18:31
  Speaker 24: resort fees and shopping and the parking fees and stuff
• 18:35
  Speaker 24: like that, and we've we reduced those in half, so
• 18:38
  Speaker 24: it's really been a break for investors in today's One
• 18:43
  Speaker 24: of our panels is going to be the affordability crisis,
• 18:47
  Speaker 24: and with travel expenses and stuff, we're able to keep
• 18:51
  Speaker 24: those costs down to a minimum or are attendee so well,
• 18:56
  Speaker 24: we're going to be a great company.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: We'll be coming to you from our flat state of Virginia,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: which is, you know, the center square of the affordability
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: from the left wing side, which is seemingly just we
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: can't make it more affordable, but how about we give
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: you someone else's money to pay for it. That seems
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: to be their answer for it and all of it. Mark,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: And I know we have so many great economic minds coming.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: You always put on some great debates amongst different economic minds.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: But the dilution of our dollar. I was looking at
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: some statistics. You know, the year I was born was
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: the year before the Great Society started, and I think
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the dollar has a ten cent buying power compared to
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: the dollar at the beginning of the Great Society. And
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: that is if that's not the sum total of where
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: we are right now, that's it, isn't it.
• 19:52
  Speaker 24: Yeah, we're going to have this session on affordability, and
• 19:56
  Speaker 24: one of the things I like to point out as
• 19:58
  Speaker 24: an economists, I had this wonderful chart that shows that
• 20:03
  Speaker 24: we did not have an inflation problem until World War Two.
• 20:07
  Speaker 24: Prior to that, yeah, it would blip up during war times,
• 20:12
  Speaker 24: but then after the war you'd see a recovery the
• 20:14
  Speaker 24: prices come back down to normal. But after World War
• 20:18
  Speaker 24: Two we have entered an era of permanent inflation. And
• 20:22
  Speaker 24: of course it's due to never ending wars. It's due
• 20:25
  Speaker 24: to deficit spending. It's due to the fad being the
• 20:29
  Speaker 24: engine of inflation panicking every time there's a financial crisis.
• 20:34
  Speaker 24: It's due to deficit spending. It's due to the dollar
• 20:38
  Speaker 24: being the world's currency at the turrency and going off
• 20:41
  Speaker 24: the gold standard is the ultimate reason. Sure and gold
• 20:46
  Speaker 24: has become a inflation heads, a superior inflation hedge, and
• 20:50
  Speaker 24: in fact it has outperformed the S and P five
• 20:54
  Speaker 24: hundred during the twenty first century. So we always have
• 20:58
  Speaker 24: a discussions of gold and hard money and alternative investing
• 21:02
  Speaker 24: and bitcoin and all that sort of thing. We do
• 21:06
  Speaker 24: have Steve Borg's coming and John fun from National Reviews.
• 21:11
  Speaker 24: We have a lot of great economists that are coming in.
• 21:14
  Speaker 24: In fact, we have Glenn Beck coming.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: We have.
• 21:20
  Speaker 24: Senator Rand Paul, who is the most libertarian of the senators. Okay,
• 21:27
  Speaker 24: we just talked to his staff about his coming and
• 21:30
  Speaker 24: I'll be doing an interview with him and people will
• 21:33
  Speaker 24: get a chance to meet him personally at a luncheon

  Speaker 22: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 22: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:17
  Speaker 22: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:21
  Speaker 22: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
• 23:23
  Speaker 22: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
• 23:26
  Speaker 22: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
• 23:29
  Speaker 22: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
• 23:31
  Speaker 22: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
• 23:35
  Speaker 22: the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
• 23:38
  Speaker 22: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
• 23:41
  Speaker 22: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
• 23:44
  Speaker 22: your fuel choices around say every third tank full, you
• 23:47
  Speaker 22: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
• 23:50
  Speaker 22: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
• 23:53

• 24:09
  Speaker 8: actually three known gases, I'm doctor Mitch. And nitric oxide
• 24:14
  Speaker 8: is a gas that's readily made all day long to
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.

  Speaker 30: Well before we uh, because we were running short of
• 29:05
  Speaker 30: the clock and you and I were talking off air
• 29:07
  Speaker 30: about uh. And I asked Joe if he knew what
• 29:10
  Speaker 30: the Yankees did last time. The Yankees had twenty four
• 29:13
  Speaker 30: hits last night, scored fifteen runs.
• 29:14
  Speaker 15: Against the Royals video game. I don't know.
• 29:17
  Speaker 30: Brett's said, yeah, Brett Saberhagen came out of retirement.
• 29:21
  Speaker 15: But I mean they had.
• 29:22
  Speaker 30: Each starter had two hits, first time ever in franchise history.
• 29:26
  Speaker 15: Wow.
• 29:26
  Speaker 30: You know, of all the things that the Yankees have accomplex,
• 29:28
  Speaker 30: they never went through a total everybody they had six
• 29:31
  Speaker 30: home runs, had twenty four hits, the eight scored fifteen runs.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: All those teams with lou garryg and Babe Ruth never
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: did that.
• 29:38
  Speaker 15: Damn hard to believe, right, all right, So not to
• 29:42
  Speaker 15: be the dead horse.
• 29:43
  Speaker 30: But while the SEC still having meetings everybody, the writers,
• 29:48
  Speaker 30: the MacBooks, the iPads, you know the type is.
• 29:51
  Speaker 15: They're they're quizzing every coach they can about expansion.
• 29:56
  Speaker 30: You know, we know the angle, we know the EXPERI
• 29:58
  Speaker 30: I told you the other day, we can we need
• 30:01
  Speaker 30: to get off the subject yours. Truly, we need to
• 30:04
  Speaker 30: get off the subject because the SEC really is not
• 30:08
  Speaker 30: gonna make a big move. You know, for the most part,
• 30:11
  Speaker 30: I watched about I don't know eight or ten of
• 30:14
  Speaker 30: the press conferences. Now the coaches are almost all in agreement.
• 30:18
  Speaker 30: We need to expand and my you know, my inquisity.
• 30:21
  Speaker 30: Inquisity minds want to know why. All right, Well, let
• 30:24
  Speaker 30: me take you down another path, because that's what we
• 30:27
  Speaker 30: do during this little segment. Here, the average bonus for
• 30:30
  Speaker 30: D one power for coaches is fifty thousand dollars to
• 30:34
  Speaker 30: one million. Okay, this is kind of the average playoff berth.
• 30:38
  Speaker 30: And this is a publish These are published numbers.
• 30:40
  Speaker 15: These aren't mine.
• 30:41
  Speaker 30: Playoff berth one fifty to five hundred thousand, quarter finals,
• 30:45
  Speaker 30: two hundred to six semi finals, three hundred and fifty
• 30:49
  Speaker 30: thout of one million.
• 30:50
  Speaker 15: These are average bonuses national championship.
• 30:52
  Speaker 25: All right.
• 30:53
  Speaker 15: So now let's talk Kurt Signetti.
• 30:55
  Speaker 30: Since he won it all and he's twenty seven to
• 30:57
  Speaker 30: two over two years, and since he went sixteen, he
• 31:01
  Speaker 30: got two million in bonus money for winning it all
• 31:04
  Speaker 30: last year. Now think about he went in three years
• 31:08
  Speaker 30: ago at JMU. He made six hundred and seventy seven
• 31:11
  Speaker 30: thousand dollars. Now I think there was a little bonus
• 31:13
  Speaker 30: for the FCS.
• 31:15
  Speaker 15: Playoffs at that time.
• 31:16
  Speaker 30: Now his contract is eleven point six million. He is
• 31:20
  Speaker 30: in the middle of an eight year, eight year, ninety
• 31:24
  Speaker 30: three million dollar deal. So here here are Kurt Signetti's bonuses,
• 31:28
  Speaker 30: and I'm gonna get back to the story. And man,
• 31:30
  Speaker 30: I just thought people would like to hear in case
• 31:32
  Speaker 30: they don't follow, the Kurt Signetti contract.
• 31:34
  Speaker 15: For his fifth win in the Big Ten, he got
• 31:37
  Speaker 15: one hundred k.
• 31:39
  Speaker 30: For his sixth he got another one fifty. For the
• 31:43
  Speaker 30: Big Ten Championship, he got a mill. And then it
• 31:46
  Speaker 30: went for the first round five hundred thousand, second round,
• 31:50
  Speaker 30: quarterfinals six hundred thousand, then the semi final appearance seven
• 31:54
  Speaker 30: hundred thousand. I mean, this is just the Vegas slavishing,
• 31:58
  Speaker 30: Chichi crushing. And then he got a million for the
• 32:01
  Speaker 30: national and he got for the appearance, he got a million,
• 32:04
  Speaker 30: and then for the win he got two million.
• 32:06
  Speaker 15: That's why.
• 32:07
  Speaker 30: If you remember the interview after the game, he finally
• 32:10
  Speaker 30: smiled and when the sideline reporter said, hey, Kurt, what
• 32:13
  Speaker 30: are you gonna do, he ate cracked that big smile
• 32:15
  Speaker 30: and he goes, I think I'm gonna have a beer,
• 32:17
  Speaker 30: all right. So that was you know, that's Kurt Signetic.
• 32:21
  Speaker 30: It's why everyone loves him.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: Because that's what we do exactly.
• 32:25
  Speaker 15: It's exactly right.
• 32:26
  Speaker 30: So now every coach in the world, we have two
• 32:30
  Speaker 30: different spectrums here Clark Lee, a little private Vanderbilt who
• 32:34
  Speaker 30: has done a terrific job turning around Vanderbilt. Okay, so
• 32:38
  Speaker 30: they all have opinion because they're all getting asked about
• 32:40
  Speaker 30: the expansion and blah blah blah.
• 32:42
  Speaker 15: Naturally, my point is.
• 32:44
  Speaker 30: This, with all those bonuses and the money that's at stake,
• 32:47
  Speaker 30: which is so every contract is different, okay, but with
• 32:51
  Speaker 30: that kind of money at stake, sure they want expansion.
• 32:55
  Speaker 30: Why they could pick up a whole set of furniture
• 32:59
  Speaker 30: of their beach house if they make the playoffs, right,
• 33:03
  Speaker 30: all right, Clark Lee. Coaches have to lead the way,
• 33:07
  Speaker 30: even though they have no power.
• 33:09
  Speaker 31: It's an important time for us to you know, not
• 33:12
  Speaker 31: be spectators in this and not just have opinions. Have opinions. Obviously,
• 33:16
  Speaker 31: there's a lot that goes into these decisions. The playoff
• 33:18
  Speaker 31: conversation is only going to happen in a few offices,
• 33:20
  Speaker 31: and I love the idea of increased participation. We left
• 33:24
  Speaker 31: here a year ago, you know, really thinking sixteen was
• 33:27
  Speaker 31: a good next step. Obviously that we fell short in that.
• 33:30
  Speaker 31: But change is coming and expanded playoff be great. I
• 33:33
  Speaker 31: just don't have a real opinion on.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: What ye can they let?
• 33:36
  Speaker 15: Yeah? Yeah, go ahead?
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Can we insert what the record was in the opening
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: round of the twelve team playoff?
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: Mac?
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Was there a single lower seed that came within three
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: touchdowns of the higher seed? Okay, I just wanted to
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: see if they.
• 33:51
  Speaker 30: Tomorrow tomorrow get into John Summer all in Florida, who
• 33:55
  Speaker 30: went from Tulan, who's now been.
• 33:57
  Speaker 15: On both sides of the fence.
• 33:58
  Speaker 30: I'm giving you a little intro in my Mac Minnett
• 34:02
  Speaker 30: for tomorrow because John, I'm John summerl is becoming one
• 34:06
  Speaker 30: of my favorite guys because he's so down to earth.
• 34:08
  Speaker 30: I really I'm not a real Florida fan, but I
• 34:11
  Speaker 30: really like this guy anyway. But but Clark Lee is
• 34:14
  Speaker 30: in the He's six million a year, good through twenty
• 34:17
  Speaker 30: thirty one. All Right, you know hope pretty salty could
• 34:20
  Speaker 30: live on that. His bonuses are not like the Kurtz
• 34:23
  Speaker 30: Signetti bonuses. They're they're in the two hundred thousand dollars range.
• 34:27
  Speaker 30: So he may get ten thousand for a bowl game,
• 34:29
  Speaker 30: twenty five thousands. I mean, it could be it could
• 34:31
  Speaker 30: be more than that. Again, Vanderbilt keeps things private, which
• 34:34
  Speaker 30: they can as a private university where you know and
• 34:38
  Speaker 30: you can look at.
• 34:38
  Speaker 15: Tax records to try to find it.
• 34:40
  Speaker 30: Now, so we'll jump from Clark Lee to Kirby Smart
• 34:43
  Speaker 30: to the other end of the SEC spectrum, a guy
• 34:45
  Speaker 30: that's been there, done that, a couple of championships, right,
• 34:48
  Speaker 30: And Kirby is in the middle of a ten year
• 34:50
  Speaker 30: deal one hundred and thirty mil so he's the highest
• 34:54
  Speaker 30: paid Georgia coach. Of course, ever his bonuses total one
• 34:59
  Speaker 30: point seven million through twenty thirty three. But but he
• 35:06
  Speaker 30: Kirby has carried the Nick Saban mantra with him everywhere
• 35:09
  Speaker 30: he goes. So when asked about the expansion, Kirby took
• 35:14
  Speaker 30: the other road and said, look, I want what's good.
• 35:17
  Speaker 32: For football, and I think as long as we acknowledge
• 35:21
  Speaker 32: differences and can give an opinion ass a league and
• 35:26
  Speaker 32: say this is our stance, that doesn't mean it's going
• 35:28
  Speaker 32: to happen. Look, we don't come in here and everybody's say, well,
• 35:30
  Speaker 32: what's the decision. We don't make the decision. We merely
• 35:33
  Speaker 32: just have a point of view. I've been in this
• 35:35
  Speaker 32: conference a long time, and listen to coach Shaving come
• 35:39
  Speaker 32: out of these meetings a long time. It can't always
• 35:40
  Speaker 32: be what's best for self preservation, has to be what's
• 35:42
  Speaker 32: best for the game, and sometimes people get caught up
• 35:44
  Speaker 32: in the middle of that.
• 35:45
  Speaker 15: All right, So for the you know what about the kids.
• 35:48
  Speaker 15: Aren't these college kids? What's that?
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Aren't they supposed to be college kids going to school
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: to get a degree in something?
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: God, well, but that's what what have I said in
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: the past. Let's dispense with this. Treat the players like professors.
• 36:04
  Speaker 30: Closer than that than you think you came up with.
• 36:07
  Speaker 30: You've said it. You're closer to that than you.
• 36:09
  Speaker 15: Actually than you think.
• 36:10
  Speaker 30: Okay, boy, but here so so the sec you know,
• 36:15
  Speaker 30: the spotlight is really undestined because college football, Big ten,
• 36:18
  Speaker 30: they're all they're all sudden and thinking, Okay, sez, come on,
• 36:21
  Speaker 30: make a decision, say we want sixteen at least come away.
• 36:24
  Speaker 30: And that's what Clark Lee said. We left last year
• 36:27
  Speaker 30: thinking we're going to sixteen. Well guess what, We're back
• 36:30
  Speaker 30: to the TV contract. I said this yesterday. That's why
• 36:33
  Speaker 30: I'm beating a dead horse. And I'll get off my
• 36:35
  Speaker 30: high horse very soon. But that's why the content the
• 36:39
  Speaker 30: ESPN and and Fox is they're looking at their chops.
• 36:42
  Speaker 30: Oh my god, we go to twenty four. Just think
• 36:44
  Speaker 30: of what's going to happen if we go to twenty four.
• 36:46
  Speaker 30: Fox Sports is going and this will be great. We
• 36:49
  Speaker 30: were part of the Big ten. Maybe ESPN is gonna
• 36:52
  Speaker 30: throw us a couple of breadcrumbs and let us carry
• 36:54
  Speaker 30: you know, two Lane and Ole miss like last time
• 36:57
  Speaker 30: it was forty one ten or whatever the score.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: So with I own a radio station and I sell advertising, well,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: I'm not even good at I have people to sell
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: advertising for me. And I'm telling you that golden goose
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: is looking tired.
• 37:11
  Speaker 15: I understand.
• 37:13
  Speaker 30: I understand, And people are, you know, thinking a bit
• 37:15
  Speaker 30: bit on the outside when you're sitting looking at this,
• 37:18
  Speaker 30: and I don't know, let's rain industries, and that's something
• 37:22
  Speaker 30: I'll look up. Colleague Athletics has got to be at
• 37:26
  Speaker 30: least the top five, one of.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: The top five industries in America right always in terms
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: of generating revenue. I guess if you want to call
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: it that, yeah, but that's what I said. When that
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: golden when the goose that lays the golden egg expires,
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: they're going to be knocking on Congress's door for bailouts,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: and I just don't want to be there. And I'm
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: on record saying don't give it to them.
• 37:51
  Speaker 15: We want to be right here, you know, with the
• 37:53
  Speaker 15: notebook when it happened.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: And by the way, you know, that's enough money in
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Nashville to buy a lot of five daughters donuts.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying.
• 38:01
  Speaker 33: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
• 38:05
  Speaker 33: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
• 38:09
  Speaker 33: the police. At a time when America's neighborhoods need the
• 38:13
  Speaker 33: protection of police the most, some elected officials would rather
• 38:17
  Speaker 33: create more chaos by playing politics. If you're sick of

  Speaker 2: Every now and then we welcome in medical professionals. We
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: call it carrying beyond Cancer and it was born during
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: my battle with lymphoma, where.
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: I discovered that there were all sorts of people.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: In the process of treating and fighting and trying to
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: end cancer scourge of the human race behind the scenes,
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: not just the oncologists and the nurses who are sanctified
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: by their own work. Absolutely and joining us to talk
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: about brain cancer or Brain Tumor Awareness Month is doctor
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: Jasmine Joe. Doctor Joe, thank you for taking some time out.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: How are you doing this morning?
• 45:00
  Speaker 17: I'm doing good, and thanks for having me here this morning,
• 45:04
  Speaker 17: and also for dedicating this segment to raise awareness about
• 45:08
  Speaker 17: brain tumors.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: Now May is Brain Tumor Awareness Months, so we have
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: a few days left and I know that the National
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: Brain Tumor Society is taking contributions that they have a
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: two times matching program at secure dot brain tumor dot org.
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: Are there multiple types?
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: I know that when we talk about skin cancer and
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: other forms of cancer, you know there's an umbrella brain tumor,
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: but then there are a myriad of other things within there,
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: or are we really looking at one kind of cancer.
• 45:45
  Speaker 17: No, that's a great question. So when we think about
• 45:48
  Speaker 17: brain tumors, there are different kinds, like you mentioned, and
• 45:52
  Speaker 17: the first thing we think about is is this a
• 45:54
  Speaker 17: primary brain tumor or a secondary or metastatic. So when
• 45:59
  Speaker 17: we say primary, these are tumors that grew from the
• 46:03
  Speaker 17: brain itself, and the most common are what we call gloma.
• 46:08
  Speaker 17: And when we say secondary or metastatic brain tumors, then
• 46:11
  Speaker 17: these are tumors that came or spread from other parts
• 46:15
  Speaker 17: of the body or other organs like really cancer, lung cancer,
• 46:19
  Speaker 17: or you know you mentioned skin cancer, like melanoma. So
• 46:23
  Speaker 17: these are metasthatic. We call it metastatic cancers happened, Yeah,
• 46:29
  Speaker 17: and you know it matters because the treatment is different,
• 46:32
  Speaker 17: the outcome is different. So that's kind of like the
• 46:34
  Speaker 17: first step in when we're facing a brain tremor.
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: So I remember a piece I guess it was maybe
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: I'm almost dating myself. It was shortly after my battle,
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: so maybe it was eight or nine years ago piece
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: CBS News that a piece about breakthroughs and using immuno
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: well immune diseases like lupus and and and even HIV
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: to kill tumors because tumors were being created.
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: They discovered that one of the ways that these broken
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: cells make tumors is they co opt white blood cell
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: proteins and the and that's how they break into healthy cells.
• 47:16
  Speaker 30: Uh.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: And I remember watching the video the scans of this
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: woman's brain tumor shrinking as they were injecting her.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: Therapeutically with lupu's cells.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: You know, where are we in that because it's just
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: you know, to avoid having to do brain surgery is
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: such a breakthrough I thought in treating brain cancer.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: Doctor Joe.
• 47:39
  Speaker 17: Yeah, so I think you're referring to immunotherapy. So what
• 47:45
  Speaker 17: immue theapy does is it it stimulates our own immune
• 47:51
  Speaker 17: system to fight or attack cancers. Snail cancers have specific
• 47:57
  Speaker 17: protein on their surface that kind of you know, when
• 48:01
  Speaker 17: we think about immuno therapy, there are different kinds. There
• 48:04
  Speaker 17: are immuno therapy that we kind of engineered the immune
• 48:08
  Speaker 17: therapy so it has that specific protein for that immune
• 48:13
  Speaker 17: therapy to bind to that specific protein that the cancer
• 48:20
  Speaker 17: produce and attack those cancers. There are also types of
• 48:25
  Speaker 17: immunotherapy where it kind of blocked the checkpoint and the
• 48:31
  Speaker 17: idea of those the idea of immunotherapy is to like
• 48:36
  Speaker 17: I mentioned, stimulate our own immune system to attack the
• 48:39
  Speaker 17: brain tumors. Now where we are in that, you know,
• 48:43
  Speaker 17: we're still learning more about how to this type of
• 48:49
  Speaker 17: treatment benefit brain tumors. So for immune therapies the card cells,
• 48:54
  Speaker 17: they are now approved for immatologic malignancies like lymphoma, we're
• 49:00
  Speaker 17: still you know it neotherapy made significant headways in other
• 49:06
  Speaker 17: types of cancer like lung cancer, melanoma, in terms of
• 49:10
  Speaker 17: brain in terms of brain tumor it you know, we've
• 49:13
  Speaker 17: had several big trials using immunotherapy, although those trials were
• 49:20
  Speaker 17: mostly negative meaning it didn't really show significant improvement in
• 49:25
  Speaker 17: the survival. But we through those trials we learn more
• 49:30
  Speaker 17: about how brain tumors believe and how and why they
• 49:34
  Speaker 17: don't respond as as you know, as effectively as other
• 49:39
  Speaker 17: types of tumors. So we're now kind of doing more
• 49:43
  Speaker 17: combination treatment used in uno therapy with other form of
• 49:47
  Speaker 17: treatment to take advantage of this form of treatment against
• 49:52
  Speaker 17: brain cancers.
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: With all the new and I know that you know
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: our friends in the Alzheimer's Association who you know, one
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: of these days will come back and visit with me.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: But I still support everything they do to battle Uh,
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: you know this particular brain affliction. I know that the
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: breakthrough of being able to scan a brain part in
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: the phrase pre mortem and find out what's been going
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: on in there is a big breakthrough. Talk about that's
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: impact on your treating brain cancer.
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: Doctor Joe.
• 50:26
  Speaker 17: Yeah, So, you know, I think you're if you correct
• 50:30
  Speaker 17: me if I'm wrong, but you're asking if there is
• 50:33
  Speaker 17: a way to kind of screen brain fromer right.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, can you see yeh see it better? You
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: know image better, you know, know what's going on, and
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: they're better than you could even ten years ago.
• 50:46
  Speaker 17: Yeah, so that's a good question. A lot of patients
• 50:51
  Speaker 17: would ask that as well. But unfortunately, right now we
• 50:53
  Speaker 17: don't have a good screening tool to prevent cancer brain tumors.
• 51:02
  Speaker 17: You know, these years buries prior.
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: Is there I mean, are there environmental things that go
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: on in brain tumor development or is it really just
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: sort of oh my gosh, or there are family histories
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: when you when you talk to your patients, what do
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: you find doctor Joe.
• 51:19
  Speaker 17: Yeah, So what we know so far is that patients
• 51:23
  Speaker 17: who had radiation treatment to the brain in the past,
• 51:28
  Speaker 17: they are at a higher risk to develop brain tumors.
• 51:31
  Speaker 17: So let's say when there were kids they had leukemia
• 51:35
  Speaker 17: or they had some form of childhood brain tumor that
• 51:38
  Speaker 17: they needed radiation treatment. When they grow up, they are
• 51:42
  Speaker 17: at a higher risk to develop this tumor. So that
• 51:44
  Speaker 17: is a well known risk factors. But aside from previous
• 51:50
  Speaker 17: radiation treatment, we still don't know why other people get
• 51:54
  Speaker 17: it and other people don't. The vast majority of cases
• 51:57
  Speaker 17: are spreaded. Okay, there are rare occasion that it runs
• 52:02
  Speaker 17: in the family. There's some hereditary cancer syndrome that for
• 52:06
  Speaker 17: dispose patients to develop brain tumors. But apart from that,
• 52:10
  Speaker 17: you know, there have been studies looking at diet or
• 52:13
  Speaker 17: cell phones, but so far we haven't found any other
• 52:17
  Speaker 17: environmental risk factors that increase the risk for primary brain tumors.
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: Well, thank you for everything you do, and I know
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: that it is probably one of the more frightening diagnoses
• 52:27
