  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: America's favorite gun, total Bible clinging, deplorable America.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: That's American.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: Stars. Well, hello everybody, Happy day to you. Oh it's Thursday.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: I was man, it's been one of those Have you
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: ever idle have been went through one of those weeks?
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: It just seems to go on and on and on
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: and on and on. Yeah, this is one of those weeks.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: And so anyway, happy Thursday. I swear of lost track
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: of the days, hoping and praying we get to the
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: week end. We have got a lot going on today.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: Of course, the Barack Hussein Obama death Star opens to
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: the public today, and we're monitoring all of those developments.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Interesting stories that are percolating about the Obama death Star.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: We're going to get to that, this situation with Iran,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and we're going to open up the phone lines today.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: That's I look, I just want to show I'm going
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: to share with you what yours truly has had to
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: go through over the past I don't know, forty eight
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: seventy two hours. Because it's ugly out there. It is
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: ugly out there, ladies and gentlemen, ugly U LG. Y
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: ain't got no alibi ugly out there in the world
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: of politics. So I'm going to and that's where we're
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: going to start out. This is not a pity party,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: so Dylan, it is not a pity party. But I
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: think people need to understand what it's like when we're
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: not on the air here and the sorts of things
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: that we hear and the people that reach out to us, right,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's nothing wrong with that. I don't think.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't say so.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: Cheaper than therapy, very very much free. Well, exactly, it's free.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: That's the operative work. So look, here's the bottom line.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: There are so many people talking about the Memorandum of understanding.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: They call it the move or the mal. I call
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: it the memorandum of understanding because the other two things
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: are weird. Now you've got there are two very clear
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: there are very distinct sides here. And these two sides,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: by the way, are really for Republicans. Right, So you've
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: got one batch of Republicans that wants to bomb the
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: living daylights out of Iran, and you've got the other
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: side that says we shouldn't have been over there in
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: the first place. So we got to get out of there.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: We've got to get out, declare victory. Let's get back
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: to life as we know it, because attacking Iran is
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: not an America first position. So those are the two
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: very distinct camps all right, by the way. Within that
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: cluster you've got, and trust me, it is a cluster.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Within those clusters, you've got the pro Israel crowd and
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: you've got the anti Israel crowd, and you can call
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: them what you want, anti semi to jew haters, whatever,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: but you've got those folks involved. And so then you've
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: got folks like yours, truly, and I sort of see
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: everybody's side on this. I will, However, my position has
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: been and always will be that we should have gone
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: in and obliterated Iran in the first place. Now, my philosophy,
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: my overarching philosophy in life when it comes to Donald J. Trump,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: is the man has never ever let me down? Has
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: he let you down, ladies and gentlemen. Has he done
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: something that you were just horrified by? Because he hasn't
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: done that, at least not in my estimation. As a
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: matter of fact, Donald Trump's been the only politician in
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: my lifetime who actually delivered on all of his campaign promises.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: And some of you are saying, well, what about the war.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I'm going to get to that. Just hang tip for
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: a second. But Donald Trump has never let me down,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: he's never lied to me, He's always been honest. I
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: may not have agreed with him on some issues, but
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: overwhelmingly I have more so than any other president. And
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: so me I'm willing to give the president the benefit
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: of the doubt. And before we go any further, I
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: want you to hear this. I want you to hear this.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: And this is very important because you've got everybody out there.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Everybody's talking about the sources are telling Fox News. A
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: senior White House official read the memorandum verbatim to Newsmax
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: The New York Times says, forget all of that. Just
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: forget all of it until we actually see the memorandum
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: on the White House website or Donald J. Trump's truth
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: social account. I'm not believing it. I'm not believing anything.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: So the other day I posted a a posted a
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: link to a Newsmax story. It was literally on the
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Newsmax website. And the allegation is that that the Iranians
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: are going to get what three hundred billion dollars. So
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: basically it's another palettes of cash sort of a deal
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: like Barack Hussein Obama. But that's not what it is.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, at the end of the day, it's we're
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: not giving them all that cash or we may. I
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: don't live because nobody knows. Nobody knows. You know, the
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Trump administration, they say they're they say that they are
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: the most transparent in history, and they are to some extent. However,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: they have not released the memorandum of understanding. Therefore none
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: of us, none of us know what the deal is.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: You say, Todd is not a problem. Yes, it's a problem.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: But I'm just telling you all you folks getting poled
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: up out there about what we are or are not
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: going to give the Iranians, there's no reason to right
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: now because nothing is official. And hear me on this,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: every single thing that's in the memorandum that's been reported
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: that all may be true, but it's right now it's
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: unverified conjecture, and that that concerns me. You know, we
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: were having a stamp meaning about this for the NEWSMAC
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Show today today, and the first question I asked is
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: have we have we received confirmation from the White House.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Have we received from the White House the official memorandum
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: of understanding and no, The answer is no, we haven't.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: So my suggestion is just release it. I mean, if
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: you're gonna you've already signed it, let's put it out there.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Let's everybody take a good long look at it and
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: take a gander and see what's actually in there. And
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: I will say this, if if we really are giving
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: three hundred billion dollars to the Iranians, I'm going to
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: be the first person, first person on the radio hollering
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: and screaming about that. So when you want to go
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: back to the thing I shared about the the three
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: hundred million dollars and it was in the Newsmax headline.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: I shared the story on our on our X feet
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: and I said, I added something never thought I would
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: see a headline like this in Newsmax. One of the
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: presidents top I guess advisors on social media tore yours
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: truly a new one. How dare you starring? You're spreading misinformation?
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: This is not true. It turns out that your podcast
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: is is sponsored by Sale, which is owned by the Jews. Wait,
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: what what? What is going on here? And I it's
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: so so this is part of a strategy coming from
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Trump World to just obliterate anybody who now objects to
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: whatever the memorandum of understanding is. I got a problem
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: with that. I got a big problem with that. First
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: of all. First of all, in Trump World, you should
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: not have to pledge allegiance to every single thing the
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: president does or the administration does. There are going to
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: be some things you have a genuine disagreement about. That
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: doesn't mean I hate the president. That doesn't mean I'm
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: the President's enemy. It means that I just disagree with
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: the president. And you know, there are a lot of
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: people out there, and I'll give you a great example.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: There's a guy named David Kustoff who is a congressman.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: He's a congressman. He is my congressman here in the
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Memphis area. And there are people out there all, well,
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: you know, he's a Trump hating rhino that cussed off
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, really, wow, And this is what I
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: was getting when I was first when I first moved back.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah, he's a moderate. You know, he's a
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: liberal rhino. Really, so I want to go look at
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: his voting record. He is like votes the guy votes
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: ninety plus percent of the time with Donald Trump. Yeah,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: but that eight percent. I'm like, okay, it's do you agree?
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Let me ask you husband's wives. Do you agree with
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: each other one hundred percent of the time? Dylan, No,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to ask you. I don't want to
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: put you on this spot.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: Tell him you can. It's okay.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Do you agree with your wife one hundred percent of
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: the time. Yes, No, that's a great answer.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Of course I do.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: He's a nearly went lady, is a gentleman. But just
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: think about this, does that mean you hate your wife?
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you disagree, it was like, honey, I
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: think we should have watched you know, the football game
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: instead of I don't know, some romance novel of the
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: lifetype TV. No, that doesn't mean you're No, that doesn't
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: mean you need to hire a divorce attorney. So then
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: on the other side, so I'm catching I'm catching holy
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: you know what now from some of these Trump folks
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: who I've never even heard of, simply for sharing a
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: story and not even offering an opinion. Because I have
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: not offered an opinion, Because why, Dylan, why have I
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: not offered an opinion? On the memorandum of understanding. Why
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: to because I haven't seen it yet.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: So that's we do not get the proverbial horse in
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: front of the cart, if you will. So while all
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: that's going on, and this has been my life here,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: so now I'm catching I'm catching holy you know what
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: from people? Oh we always knew that Startings was a leftist,
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: he's a closet democrat. Where is this coming from?
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: What was it? The the there is a never mind,
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: I can't go there. I'm not going to go there.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: So then on the other side, the other side that
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: says we need to bomb bomb them di Smitheries. So yes,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: I agree. But if you don't agree with every single thing,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: because their thing is you have to bow down and
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: worship Israel. And if you object to Israel, you say
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: anything about Israel, that makes you a Jew hater. So
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: here's my take on this. I am somewhat dreading the
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: calls we're gonna get today, but we're gonna take them all.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: But here's my take on this. Donald Trump was right
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: to be angry and upset with Benjamin Nett and Yahoo.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: And the fact of the matter is Israel. They've been
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: asking for our help. We go over there, we try
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: to help them, we try to defend them, and we
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: are doing that. The president's trying to work out some
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: sort of a piece deal, if there's one that's to
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: be had, and then Israel is turning around and they're
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: bombing Lebanon. Now let me put a pin there for
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: just a minute, So go back to the other side
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: that hates my guts right now. And the other side
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: is saying, well, Israel should Israel should just stop, right
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: and that's the president the president to say, says, just
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: because we had some audio, Yes, just because you know
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: you you know, there are bad guys in an apartment building.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: It doesn't mean you have to blow up the entire
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: apartment building. Okay, that's great, But let's just say we've
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: got a bunch of Mexicans and they're firing rockets into Brownsville,
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: Texas at El Passo. All right, do you think the
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: United States if Israel said, mister President, we really like Mexico,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: We really don't want to sturn things up, so you're
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: gonna need this. You cannot retaliate, mister president. You think
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: that you think that Donald Trump would would listen to
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: net and Yahoo, No, we blow the smithereens out of Mexico.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Pardon me, may Co. We try to enunciate correctly here
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: and pronounce the words correctly, like what the mala for example,
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: the g is silent. So anyway, so you've got so,
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: you've got all those So now I'm like, yes, that's
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: actually why would we why would we tell Israel to stop?
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: But at the same time, Trump is trying to work
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: out a deal here, So I get where the President's
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: coming from, but I get where Israel's coming from. They've
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: got a valid point. But here's the thing. Now, Israel says, well,
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: you know what, We're just we're just going to be independent. Okay, well, fine,
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: be independent, go fight your fight. But the United States
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: doesn't have to be there the United States, why should we?
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Why should we put our sons and daughters in harm's way.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Keep in mind, the only reason that we went over
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: there in the first place was to make sure that
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Iran could not make nuclear bombs. We were going to
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: destroy their nuclear capabilities. My only question, did we do that?
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: Yes or no? That's the question everybody ought to be asking, Yesterda.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: It's not about regime change, not about boots on the ground,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: not about oil, which it really is about oil, but
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: none of that. It's that one question, did we accomplish
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: our single goal, because remember that was the only reason
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: we went over there. And I will say this, jd
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Vance appears to have won the day. But jd Vance
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: is in a really tough pickle right now because Donald
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Trump made him the face of this deal, which is
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: really not a deal, it's a memorandum of understanding. But
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: if things go south, jd Vance his butts in a
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: sling here, ladies and gentlemen. And let me tell you something.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Body language says everything happy, go lucky. Marco Rubio. Have
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: you been seeing the photographs and the videos. He is
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: not happy because he got sidelined. He got sidelined here,
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: and for me, that is a concern. Our war secretary
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: got sidelined here. That is a concern for me. But again,
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day, nobody's seen the memorandum. Nobody.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: We're gonna wait, We're gonna see how this plays out.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: There have been some reporting that this may be another
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: sixty days. Ladies and gentlemen. We watch clocks on this program,
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: and I warned you that if we are still in
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: the middle of chaos in the Middle East. Come November.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: All I can tell you is that by February of
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: next year, Donald Trump will be impeached. That's what is
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: at stake here. A lot is writing on this, so
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: we've got to make sure we get it right. But
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: my point here is this, to both sides, knock it off.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: It's okay to disagree. That doesn't mean that you're a
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Jew hater. It doesn't mean that you're a never Trump Democrat.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: It means you just simply disagree. But we've got to
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: start playing smart politics here, folks. We will see how
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: it all plays out. We're gonna be going to the
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: votes here. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: two six. Our telephone number, that's nine oh one two
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Sterns Show.
• 15:47
  Speaker 7: Hey, guys, quick, heads up. This is actually a big one.
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: We're saying goodbye to something that's helped thousands of families
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: over the years, the Patriot Power Generator, one of the
• 15:56
  Speaker 7: best selling solar generators of twenty twenty five, officially being
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: retired and the reason they've just released something even better.
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: It's called the Patriot Power Generator two. Two zero zero
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: X and this is their most powerful model yet. It's
• 16:12
  Speaker 7: built for real life situations, storms, outages, emergencies when you
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: need power the most. To launch it, they're doing something
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: pretty crazy right now. You can get five hundred dollars
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: off the generator. Plus they're including two free solar panels,
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: so you can double your charging power right out of
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: the box. They're also throwing in a heavy duty roll
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: in go kart an extended three year warranty, and if
• 16:35
  Speaker 7: you're a senior or a veteran, you can save an
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: additional two hundred dollars. And here's the part that really
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: stands out, because they offer a payment plan. You can
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: get started today for just two hundred and ninety nine
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: dollars and it's ships as soon as tomorrow. But this
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: is a limited launch offer. It's first come, first served,
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: and these kinds of deals don't stick around, especially with
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: how unpredictable power outages have been lately. So if you've
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: ever thought about having backup power for your home, now's
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: the time to do it. Stay safe, stay prepared, and
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: don't wait until the lights go out. Go to starnsprepper
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: dot com right now to take advantage of this limited
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: time offer.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: All right, we.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Are listening to the opening music of the Baracos ain't
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Obama Presidential death Star. Hello, everybody, Welcome back to the
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Concerns radio shows. So ominous, Dylan, I feel I'm scared.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: I think that's actually where they're going to film the
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: next one.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: They've got to Yeah, it's interesting. You can buy a
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: ticket to get inside, but you don't come out. Sorry,
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: I'm mesmerized by the music here, so I'm curious.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: Here.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: We've got to give it a name, ladies and gentlemen,
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: and I know we have a very clever audience, so
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: we need your helping in naming what we're calling this whatever.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: What do we want to call this dark, drab, gray,
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: dystopian obelisk. It's like a a let's look like a
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: North Korean prison camp guard shack, right guard tower. Others
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: have said it bears a striking resemblance to some sort
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: of a death star from Star Wars. But it's opening
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: today and there's a pretty big crowd of folks. There
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: not a lot of diversity in the crowd. I just
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: wanted to point that out. It turns out this is
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: the most expensive presidential library in the history of presidential libraries.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: One billion dollars deal, and that's how much a call.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: One billion dollars.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: That's a lot of money for it to look like that.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: They're already used. They've already got cracks in the concrete
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: because they used DEI. They did DEI hiring. Yikes. Probably
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: for something like that, you kind of want the best
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: of the best.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're gonna spend that much money, which turns out, well,
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: we'll talk about it later, I'm sure. But the money
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: that they're saying they're spending.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: Do we the word is that apparently they were just
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: driving up they had like Obama library vans pulling up
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: in front of Home depot and just asking if anybody
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: wanted a job. I mean, that's the gist of it.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: So we Yeah, we've got more to share with you
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: about there's a big controversy. Black folks are enraged over
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: this thing. We're gonna tell you, why do you have
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: a good name for the Obama presidential death Start nine
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. This
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: is the Tod Sterns Show. All right, welcome back everybody,
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: and again we are searching for your names and you
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: got to be creative. What are we going to call
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: the Barack Hussein Obama presidential death star. We need to
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: know your suggestions. Nine oh one two six zero five
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: nine two six. Again that number nine oh one two
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. Well, certainly a disturbing
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: story in the world of Major League Baseball that continues
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: to grow and grow and grow. And it all started
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: right here on this radio program. Major League Baseball warning
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: at least three Christian players of the San Francisco Giants
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: to not write Bible verses on their gay pride ball caps. Well,
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: that has caused a lot, a lot of controversy around
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: the nation. I know Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: a filed official letter with the Baseball Commissioner demanding answers
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: to a lot of questions. Also taking action our good friend,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: the Attorney General of the great State of Missouri, Catherine Hannaway,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Attorney General. Good to have you with us today.
• 21:23
  Speaker 8: Thank you so much, Todd, and thank you for bringing
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: the nation's attention to this issue. It's very much appreciated,
• 21:30
  Speaker 8: and it's very sad what Major League Baseball is doing
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: to America's game.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: It's just awful. And we're always happy to stir the
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: pot when it needs stirring, and in this particular case,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: it's just I know, for me, it's just so unacceptable.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: And this has nothing to do with gay rights or
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: whether you're gay straight Lesia. That has nothing to do
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: with it. For me, this is all about freedom of
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: conscience and also freedom of religion.
• 21:55
  Speaker 8: Absolutely, freedom of religion, freedom of expression. Major League Baseball
• 22:01
  Speaker 8: team that the San Francisco Giants, is compelling speech by
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: making their players wear these gay pride hats. And when
• 22:09
  Speaker 8: a few courageous individuals who have a different set of
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: beliefs decided to express themselves, major League Baseball turns around
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: and wants to shut them down and so not let
• 22:20
  Speaker 8: them exercise their religion and not let them exercise their
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: free speech rights. It's so long. It's not the right
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: place for Major League Baseball to be at a time
• 22:28
  Speaker 8: when baseball is struggling to keep up with other major sports.
• 22:33
  Speaker 8: They're just turning fans off right and left, not to
• 22:36
  Speaker 8: mention being offensive to the US Constitution.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: It's a fine point. I know that that you're jumping
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: into the fray as well. Of course, Senator Hawley sending
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: them under the Baseball commissioner. What needs to happen here?
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: Well, I think Major League Baseball has got to pludge
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: that they will never again engage in this kind of conduct. Look,
• 22:56
  Speaker 8: I don't mind if others want to express themselves, but
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: these players should have the ability to express themselves, either
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: by choosing not to wear the gay Pride hat or
• 23:08
  Speaker 8: to put the Bible Verse on their hat. And aren't
• 23:11
  Speaker 8: I lucky to be the Attorney General of Missouri and
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: succeed three great guys who've had that job, Josh Holly,
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: Eric Schmidt, and Andrew Bailey, And we've had a consistent
• 23:24
  Speaker 8: line of standing up for the Constitution.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: I just love that. And you're right. I don't know
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: what you guys have in the water they're in Missouri,
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: but you're putting out some really good attorney generals and
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: we appreciate that. And I know as again, this goes
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: back to a point and we had a guy on
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: who actually wrote the original story for out Sports. He
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: was on my show yesterday and I just asked a
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: guy question and he could not answer this question, what
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: does any of this have to do with baseball? You
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: know what, why can't we just go to a baseball
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: game and enjoy a baseball game, and if a player
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: doesn't want to participate maybe for whatever reason, why should
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: that player be forced to participate. I mean you could
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: turn this around and say, okay, well, what would happen
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: if a gay person was a gay player was forced
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: to participate in a in a Christian event, for example?
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: It's one hundred percent right. Imagine if the roles were
• 24:14
  Speaker 8: reversed and Major League Baseball told every player that they
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: needed to wear a cross on their hat, and a
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: handful said that they weren't going to do it, or
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: they were going to express their opinion. You know, the liberals,
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: the atheists, the people who don't believe in christ would
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: come forward with such venom. I'm so pleased that for once,
• 24:39
  Speaker 8: we're standing up for the ability of Christians to express themselves.
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: And Todd you do it every day, and thank goodness
• 24:48
  Speaker 8: for you.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: Catherine Hannaway, the Attorney General of the great state of Missouri.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: And by the way, we have a connection I don't
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: here with the Saint Louis Cardinals. And of course we
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: broadcast our Nation Show from my home town of Memphis,
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: and we're one of the big feeder. We've got the
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Triple a ballpark here for the Cardinal. A lot of
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Cardinals fans down in the Memphis area go Redbirds. There
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: you go, the we love the red Birds down here
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: in the Cardinals. Attorney General, I want to switch gears
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: here because you have been very involved in another case,
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: and this is an important case. You are suing a
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: baby monitor manufacturer for apparently concealing links to the Chinese military.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: What in the world is this all about.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's almost unbelievable when you say it. But this
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: company called Lorex, which is a very popular seller of
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: baby monitors, was originally owned by another company called Doa,
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: and Doa is Chinese military company. The United States Department
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: of War designates them as such. When they got designated,
• 25:59
  Speaker 8: they spun out this baby monitor company. But what wasn't
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: disclosed is that they're still producing the components and they
• 26:08
  Speaker 8: still have a backdoor where they can read all the
• 26:11
  Speaker 8: data that's being collected both see audio and here see
• 26:16
  Speaker 8: video and here audio from these baby monitors. And Doa
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: is you know, the Chinese Communist parties military wing. And
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: it's really scary that people are putting these monitors in,
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: you know, their most cherished spaces with their newborn babies
• 26:35
  Speaker 8: and that the Chinese are able to listen in. So
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: these cameras are sold at major retailers, you know Officemacs,
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: you know Best Buy, Amazon. They're very popular and encourage
• 26:49
  Speaker 8: people to go to our website and look at the pictures.
• 26:51
  Speaker 8: They'll recognize this baby monitor and we're trying to recover
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: money and shut them down. But your listeners can immediately
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: get these things out of their home.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: I think the thing that caught my attention right away
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: and the press release the video cameras. Families were told
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: the video cameras are quote private by design, but in
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: theory they were literally able to watch your babies breathe,
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: you say, capture our children's voices, and record families most
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: intimate moments. That's just that's really orwellian.
• 27:27
  Speaker 8: It is, and it's so scary because over and over
• 27:31
  Speaker 8: again in their disclaimers they claim that they are keeping
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: your information private, but they tried to hedge just a
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: little bit to protect themselves from the United States government
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: by saying, if you have any private information regarding the
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: United States government, it's not it's not secure for those purposes.
• 27:54
  Speaker 8: So these guys know what they're doing. They know they're
• 27:57
  Speaker 8: feeding information back to the Chinese government, and it's so sad,
• 28:02
  Speaker 8: it's it's.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Just unacceptable, and we're so glad that you're on top
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: of this and again suing to make this right. Attorney General.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: We always love having you on, and we have a
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: lot of listeners across the Great State, and we appreciate
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: the great work you're doing standing up for freedom and liberty.
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: Thank you so much, Todd. Great to be able to
• 28:22
  Speaker 8: do it right next to you. You've let us all
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: and really appreciate it.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: All right, Missouri Attorney General. Everybody Cantherine Hannaway on our
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: Patriot Mobile news maker Line today and we certainly appreciate
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: her taking that tough stand on Major League Baseball as
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: well as suing this baby monitor. Dylan. Can you imagine?
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, you've got all this electronic stuff in your
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: homes now you don't even know your own TV. There
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: have been reports your own TV could actually be watching you.
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: You know, I actually get scared of that because when
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: my TV turns off, there's like a big flash of
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: white light. I'm like, did it just take a picture?
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: Like?
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: I smiled, Yeah, it's I put. I don't know about you.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: I put a little post it note over the camera monitors.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah yeah, on the laptops. That's like a
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: default now if you get a new laptop, got to yeah,
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Trust it, yeah, not one bit. All right, nine oh
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six our telephone number,
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: that's nine oh one two six zero five, nine to six.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Can we go back to the Obama Presidential death Star
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: for just a moment, And again we're taking your call.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: So if you've got a clever name for the death star,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: we would uh, we'd love to hear it.
• 29:37
  Speaker 9: I'm getty nervous again, Big Mike, I am your fom
• 29:51
  Speaker 9: Well that was inappropriate.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: So anyway, while all the festivities are happening, there are
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: a lot of really set folks in and around Chicago.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: It turns out that the Obama Foundation has they've stiffed
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: black contractors. You cannot make this up. So there's an
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: African American Contractors Association. And part of the whole spiel
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: here is that Obama only wanted to use minority contractors
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: to build the building. And that's fine, whatever, you know,
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: that's what you want to do, and that's what you
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: want to do. But now the contractors are just enraged,
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: and they're saying the reason why is that nobody, nobody
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: has paid them and they are due millions and millions
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: of dollars. Some of these companies are literally on the
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: verge of bankruptcy because Obama has not paid them any money. Meanwhile,
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Michelle Obama was being interviewed by Good Boarding America and
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: here's here's what she had to say. Take a listen
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: to cut thirty seven.
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: One word to describe your next chapter. One word.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: Funny?
• 31:06
  Speaker 10: Uh me, oh geez, that's what you call mine?
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: You know what you see her answer?
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: You see this woman, Michelle Obama is one of the
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: most self centered, selfish first ladies in all of American mystery.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: That's who the woman is. It's all about her, so ungrateful,
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: so ungrateful, and she has a chip on her shoulder
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: and for no reason, for no reason whatsoever, the woman
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: has more money than the most American citizens. She's got
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: everything that she she ever needed and ever needs, and
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: it's just not good enough. All right, Let's go to
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: the phone lines here nine oh one two six zero
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: five nine two six First to Jerry and Milwaukee wants
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: to weigh in on the baseball players. Hi, Jerry, what's
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: on your mind?
• 32:02
  Speaker 11: Yeah, Todd, Yeah, to wear In the baseball players, they
• 32:06
  Speaker 11: had the option not to wear the Pride plague. In fact,
• 32:09
  Speaker 11: are the Pride hat one fat And one example was
• 32:14
  Speaker 11: Sam Hedgett. Hemaes was a reliever or the San Francisco Giants.
• 32:20
  Speaker 11: He didn't wear the Pride hat. So you know, they
• 32:22
  Speaker 11: had the option. If they're gonna wear the hat, they
• 32:24
  Speaker 11: shouldn't put Bible verses on it. But I mean, if
• 32:27
  Speaker 11: it's not the head was wrong or against the religion
• 32:30
  Speaker 11: or whatever, then simply don't wear the hat. To me,
• 32:34
  Speaker 11: it's the very simplest solution.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: But why not. I mean if you and hear me
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: on this, Jerry, if you go into the locker room
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: and there's like, you know, the gay Pride uniform sitting there,
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: it seems to me, if you're a baseball player, your
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: first your default thinking there is I gotta wear this.
• 32:52
  Speaker 11: Well no they didn't, not all of them.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: Were no, no, no, right. But what I'm saying is, but
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: they may not have said okay, you or you're forced
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: to wear this, but you're sort of forced to wear this.
• 33:05
  Speaker 11: Well, this is strange because at least one of them
• 33:08
  Speaker 11: didn't wear it, and he's still, you know, on the team.
• 33:11
  Speaker 11: So I mean, look at it's also I mean, it's
• 33:13
  Speaker 11: a part of the baseball MLB rules. I mean, you
• 33:17
  Speaker 11: agree to this, you're part of the team. This is
• 33:19
  Speaker 11: the team's thing, and you know you had the right
• 33:21
  Speaker 11: to you believe, But they didn't have to wear it.
• 33:24
  Speaker 11: You know, it's the same.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: But they're saying it's hate. I'm wondering why is it hate?
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, when I went to go look at that
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: Bible verse, it talks about the origin of the rainbow, which,
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: by the way, Jerry, if you go back and read
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: the history of the guy who created the whole rainbow theme,
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: he drew inspiration, he said, from ancient times, which many people,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: and he's inferring that he got it from the Bible.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: So again, I just don't understand why anybody would think
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: that Bible verse would be offensive.
• 33:53
  Speaker 11: Well, I don't think it's specifically offensive, oh.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: Jerry, I think outspol words would start off. They called
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: it a homophobic, homophobic Bible verse.
• 34:05
  Speaker 11: Okay, there are homophobic Bible verses in the Bible. Homophobic.
• 34:11
  Speaker 11: There's one talked about killing of gage people.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: What is what is homophobic about the story of God
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: sending the rainbow promising not to destroy the earth by
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: the flood?
• 34:22
  Speaker 12: One.
• 34:22
  Speaker 11: Okay, let's be clear. Rainbows weren't created by a god
• 34:25
  Speaker 11: after Noah's flood. Rainbows are because light is diffused from
• 34:30
  Speaker 11: it takes the colors of the spectrum. It's a scientific thing.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: Why do I feel you're in the dark on this, Jerry?
• 34:36
  Speaker 11: No, But but that story is a story of genocide.
• 34:40
  Speaker 11: I know people are going to hate to hear this,
• 34:42
  Speaker 11: but it's a story of genocide. This god killed almost
• 34:44
  Speaker 11: the whole world's population, but promise you won't kill them
• 34:47
  Speaker 11: in the same certain way with a flood. That's horrific.
• 34:50
  Speaker 12: That's that's to me.
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: That's vile, you know. And this guy knew exactly what's
• 34:54
  Speaker 11: gonna happen. It's a horrific story. But that story isn't
• 34:57
  Speaker 11: specifically homophobic, right.
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: So what's the problem here?
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: You know what?
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Jerry? Again? I again, I hear what you're saying. But
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: the fact of the matter is that Major League Baseball
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: opened up this box when they made the players where
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: the Black Lives Matter jerseys and the patches and the
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: cleats and the social justice stuff So MLB can't have
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: it both ways. You just can't. And we all know
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: that those players, those players inferred they had to wear
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: those ball caps. And I've got no problem with the
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: fact they wrote the Bible Verse on there. Jerry got
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: to leave it there. Thank you for calling in. I
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: think I think Dylan the bigger issue here that the
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Gay Pride ball camp not necessarily the biggest problem. I
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: think it may have been the Gay Pride jockstrap. All right,
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: let's go to Gainesville, Georgia, home to w du in Garls. Charles,
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: what's on your mind today?

• 36:23

  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: common sense, conservative commentary from Todd stars.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: This American.
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: Well, Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Tod Serene Radio Show.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: Great to have you with us today. Our telephone number,

  Speaker 3: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: five nine two six, and we're going to be taking
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: your calls today, by the way. More on these, uh,
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: these African American contractors. I don't want to dwell too
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: much on this, but subcontractors now say they are of
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: millions of dollars and face financial ruin after helping build
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: the Obama Presidential Center, the nineteen point three acre campus
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: on Chicago's South Side, built primarily and by the way,
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: the Obamas wanted black contractors. They wanted black workers to
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: build this. This death star. One guy who owns this
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: is not part of the African American group, but one guy,
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: Mike Owen is with Adamson Plumbing. He says that they're
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: owed nearly four million dollars and they've been They've been
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: begging to be paid for years. Mister Owen says, that's
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: a whole no subcontractor, no small business can survive. Subcontractors
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: interviewed by Fox News describe what they characterized as a
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: chaotic work environment marked by repeated design changes, rework, scheduled
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: scheduling disruptions, extensive oversight in years long compensation disputes that
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: still remain unresolved. It's just shocking. Here, oh, here we go.
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: This is the good part of the Fox story. The
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: African American Contractors Association president, a guy by the name
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: of Omar Sharif. He says they've never seen anything life
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: this ever had these these kinds of problems, and advocates
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: for black subcontractor firms said those companies have now been
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: muzzled because they have a non disclosure agreement, so they're
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: not even they're not even able to go out there
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: and say they have not been paid. Mister Sharif says
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: they're scared to death about talking about it. He says,
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: I've never seen this happen since he's been in business.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: Says he says, you're not paying our damn contractors. Sharif
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: said several black subcontractor owners began privately approaching him about
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: six months ago, claiming significant losses tied directly to Obama.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: The concerns are noble, he said, because the project was
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: publicly promoted as an opportunity for minority owned businesses and
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: local workers. Mister Sharif says, the promise was that this
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: project was going to uplift minority contractors and uplift the community.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: What since is celebrating June teenth? Of our black contractors
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: are not getting their money. Some of these people put
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: up their mortgages. They're going to lose their bonding, They're
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: going to lose their relationship with their suppliers as well
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: as their bankers. It's a great point. I just and
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: I hate it for these folks, but that's who the
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Obamas are. Ladies and gentlemen. That's who they are. It's
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: all about them. They don't care about anybody else. Nine
• 42:23

  Speaker 3: for calling in the International House of Hussein. I love
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: that goes right to the top of our list. I
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: love that. By the way, you've got to have an ID.
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: Did you know that you've got to have an ID
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: if you want to go to the visit of the center,
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: you've got to show a proper form some sort of
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: a government an official government ID. Now, if you want
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: to go vote you in Chicago, you don't need an ID,
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: But if you want to go inside the Obama Presidential Center,
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: you've got to have an ID. There you go, ladies
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: and gentlemen, the more you know, nine oh one two
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: six zero five to nine two six is our number again,
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: that's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: Where is that story? Someone? Here we go. This is
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: from York Pennsylvania. York PA, a minor league baseball team
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: there in Pennsylvania forfeitting its Pride Night game. That's because
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: the players refuse to wear the rainbow colored jerseys. In
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: a statement, the York Revolution said it was with great
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: disappointment that the team did not play the game and
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: chose to forfeit. The team's Pride Night events featured many activities,
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: including batting practice. Was that actually batting practice that we
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: know of? Was that literally batting practice or is that
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: a euphemism for something so batting practice? Park tours, and music.
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: The team going on to say the decision was not
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: reached lightly. Unfortunately, several of our players have refused to
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: wear the scheduled Pride Night jersey, and the club decided
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: that hosting the event is more important than forcing players
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: to wear jerseys they are not comfortable with and playing
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: the game. The game was scheduled for Thursday, and I
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: thinkainst Southern Maryland. It was supposed to be the team's
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: eleventh annual Pride Night. To be clear, this action by
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: the players completely inconsistent with our vision of the ball
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: clubs upset about this is completely inconsistent with our vision
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: as the most welcoming place in York. As a small
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: token of our regret for the last minute change of
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: plans and support for our LGBTQIA plus representing partners, we
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: are making a ten thousand dollars donation of the Rainbow
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: Rose Center to support in further their work. The team
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: said that tickets will be exchanged or any other home game,
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: So there you go, Ladies and gentlemen, it's not about baseball.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: It's not about baseball. It's about creaming an agenda down
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: the throats of baseball players and also ladies and gentlemen fans.
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: I mean, it really is that simple, and it's very sad.
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: This story from Believe it or not, Germantown, Tennessee. This
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: is where I live. I am shocked by the story.
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: You know, they do an event every year in Germantown
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: where they invite the kids to set up lemonade stands around.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: It's a really neat thing and the kids sell e
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: lemonade and it goes to charities and the kids win
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: prizes and the lemonade is very good. Dylan, have you
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: ever been to the eliminade thing in Germantown.
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: I haven't been to that one, but if I saw it,
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: I would stop. I love lemonade.
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: You know the kids, you know, they're little entrepreneurs. They
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: call it Lemonade stand Day, and the kids get back
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: to the community. It's just a wonderful, wonderful thing that
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: they do in Germantown, Tennessee. And so I think they
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: had what more than forty young kids. They're entrepreneurs, and
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: they raised money for local charities and then they learned
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: the value of community service. And so I just it
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: is such a noble thing. And I love that the
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: town leaders are big, big fans of this. I think
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: some of the money goes to Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital,
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: the animal shelter, you know, things like that. So anyway,
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: there is a bit of controversy this year. It turns
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: out that somebody called the cops. Somebody called the cops
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: on these ladies, these girls who are who had a
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: lemonade stand. This is from Fox thirteen summertime. Lemonade stands
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: are a right of passage for children. But in one
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: mid South neighborhood, a girls entrepreneurship earned a visit from
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: the police. Somebody, actually, one of the neighbors called the cops.
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: They think on these two sisters because they they alleged
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: they were breaking the law. So they actually sent police out.
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: And the police, you know, looked at all the set
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: of it, everything, they said, everything looks fine. Here the
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: two sisters raising money for brain cancer research. Now what's
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: interesting about this is one of the sisters is actually
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: a grown woman who owns like a cookie shop or something.
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: But anyway, and her younger sister is very very young,
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: so there's a lot of age discripts. And their mother
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: died of brain cancer, and so they're they're raising money
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: for brain cancer. Jeez. So the elder sister said, this
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: is definitely a first world problem. Could you believe that?
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: That's actually I do believe that in our town. You know,
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: the people are a little you know, what's the word
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: I'm looking for, Dylan, uppity. I was thinking butt hurt.
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: But yes, uppity is good. They're uppity. Yeah, it's just
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: somebody had a birthday party once for some of I'm
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: going to forget all the details. I guess think I
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: was turning fifty or something. It was some big milestone birthday,
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: and so they thought it'd be fun to put up
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: one of the big inflatable bouncy things in the front yard. No, no,
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: but they got in trouble.
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: God forbid. We have fun outside in Shermantown, Tennessee.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: These and I don't know if you guys in your communities,
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: if you have these message boards, they're awful that. I mean,
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: you can't it's it's just like it's like, I don't know,
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: junior high school and people would post them. I can't believe.
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: I can't believe those those white trash people putting a
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: bouncy house in their front yard. And did you see
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: their petunias? They were droping, drooping petunias. That's against the law.
• 49:46
  Speaker 4: It's like, we have these high standards for what our
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: towns should look like, but it's almost too far now
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: where you're taking away all the fun.
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: Well, fortunately the police and the police uh in German
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: townsp very good folks, and they said, look, there are
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: no violations here, there's nothing here. So they didn't you know,
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: find them or anything. But it's the idea that somebody
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: is going to call the cops. You know what the
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: day is, it's lemonade standay for crying out loud, so
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: you know what, you know what's going on. So anyway,
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: I wanted to read this. There is a somebody posted
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: this on socials. They follow me and I don't know
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: who they are, but they used to live in Memphis,
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: and I wanted to read this to you because it
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: really makes a lot of sense. But also it goes
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: to the heart of why people are moving to places
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: like Germantown, like the suburbs where you you know, there
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: is a concern about you know, how things are done.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: And this is what the person said. Why I moved
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: out of Memphis is going viral on social media. The
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: reason I moved out of Memphis is simple. It is
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: a generational issue. Let me explain it this way. If
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: one loud person walks into a quiet library, they can
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: destroy the entire atmosphere. But if one quiet person walks
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: into a loud party, nobody even notices. That is how
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: communities work. A peaceful community can be disrupted by just
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: a few people who refuse to respect order rules, property, safety,
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: or basic decency. The real issue is not just noise,
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: its culture, its behavior, leadership and standards. There are communities
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: built on respect, law, peace, honesty, and accountability. Then there
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: are communities where rudeness, crime, disorder, excuses, and bad leadership
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: are allowed to become normal. The good communities will always
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: be vulnerable when they tolerate the behavior that destroyed the
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: bad ones. That is why standards matter. That is why
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: rules matter, That is why leadership matters. One of the
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: things I always respected about Germantown is that they protected
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: the character of their community. They did not just open
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: the door to anything and everything. They had standards. They
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: made quality or decisions based on quality of life. Outside
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: of Germantown, Memphis has become disgusting in too many areas. Crime,
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: poor leadership, failing infrastructure, racial division inside city government, and
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: a lack of real accountability have all pushed good people
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: and good businesses away. So I moved to my paradise
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: to keep my family safe. I moved to a community
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: with rules. No hut apartments near us or inside our
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: school zone, no walmart, no bus routes or bus stops
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: in our small community, clean streets, peaceful neighborhoods, standards that
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: are actually enforced. Germantown might want to pay attention to that.
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: And to the point is, don't lower your standards. And
• 52:53
  Speaker 3: here's the part that makes it even better. I will
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: be paying less in taxes than I was paying in Memphis,
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: and we have a Publix, no more Kroger. My advice
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: to anyone thinking about moving, hire a good broker before
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: you make the move. Tell them exactly what kind of
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: community tax structure, safety level, zoning, and lifestyle you are
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: looking for, because where you live matters. It's a great point.
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: I think they've completely moved out of Tennessee to some
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: beach areas. So and I say, and that is sad.
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: That is heartbreaking for me. It really is, because I
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: love my city, I love my community, and I don't
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: want anybody to leave. But I get it. But this
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: is why you have to have those standards. But really,
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: you're calling the cops on a kid's lemonade stand Come on,
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: Get Alive. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: two six. This is the Todd Starns Show.
• 54:00
  Speaker 15: We'd also like to take a moment to recognize the
• 54:02
  Speaker 15: original inhabitants of the land upon which we are gathered today.
• 54:07
  Speaker 15: We honor the Inshiabe, the Council of Three Fires, the Ojibwey,
• 54:11
  Speaker 15: the Odawa, and the Pottawannabe nations.
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: All Right, so that's a little bit of audio there
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: from the Obama Death Star dedication. Surly, they started out
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: with a stolen land acknowledgment.
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: That's my favorite part of any brand new opening of land.
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: And we're think the Automatipoia tribe, the Obama, Bama Jamas,
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: the potted meadheads, what what else was there?
• 54:42
  Speaker 10: There were?
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: Am So here's here's my question. I think this makes
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: it worse. Right, So it's bad enough. I mean, there's
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: some people out there and you have no idea if
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: you built your house on tribal land that once belonged
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: to the Automotipia, you know, Indian people. But so that's
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: one thing. But to go out there and acknowledge that
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: you knowingly are building this monstrosity on stolen land, that's
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: sort of like, wouldn't that be like an in your
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: face kind of a thing.
• 55:14
  Speaker 4: It has to be, right, I mean, at that point,
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: just give it back to him. It's not yours.
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: So I wonder if they're gonna get free emission. You know,
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: you gotta show ideas. You gotta show the Council of
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: the Three Fires. Better get admission to this thing. That's
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: it you otherwise, I mean, or maybe if they don't
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: get free admission, you can barter. You can trade like
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: beads or something for That's how we got Manhattan. That
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: turned out to be a bad deal for us. Let's
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: go to the phones nine O one two six zero
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: five nine two six, Steve and Little Rock, Arkansas. Steve,
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: what's going on.
• 55:52
  Speaker 14: This?
• 55:53
  Speaker 16: I call it into your show about a lot of
• 55:55
  Speaker 16: stuff that I don't know anything about.
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: I picked up that. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding, Stee.
• 56:03
  Speaker 16: I do know something about construction businesses and construction, and
• 56:08
  Speaker 16: I have been involved in managing some pretty good sized
• 56:12
  Speaker 16: construction projects. This thing with this Obama them oweing all
• 56:17
  Speaker 16: these contractors this money, There's something smells fishy about this here.
• 56:22
  Speaker 16: To me, there is nothing better documented than a construction
• 56:26
  Speaker 16: project of that size. And I'm talking about agreements on
• 56:31
  Speaker 16: how the money is going to be paid, how much
• 56:33
  Speaker 16: money is going to be paid, contracts, building inspections, records
• 56:38
  Speaker 16: of materials used, I mean everything is very, very provable
• 56:44
  Speaker 16: in a construction project from the contractors standard.
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: I see so real quick here because we got to
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: go to break. You're telling me you're not buying this
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: one billion dollar price tag.
• 56:54
  Speaker 16: Well I'm not buying. These contractors have to go to
• 56:57
  Speaker 16: the news.
• 56:58
  Speaker 12: Media to get their money.
• 56:59
  Speaker 16: Why they standing out, it's from the news. Maybe about
• 57:02
  Speaker 16: they found a lane against the building and a stature.
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: Great point, all right, got to run, Steve, great point though.
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to everybody. So, California has a
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: gay certification program for one of the utility companies out there.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: Public utilities in California are now seeking out gay contractors.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if they can keep the lights ought
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: or not. It all it matters is what they do
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: and where they put their private parts in bed. The
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: California Democrats embracing This is from the New York Post.
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: The California Democrats have embraced a new form of favoritism
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: contracts for businesses that are state certified and owned by
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: members of the alphabet activist community. The scheme is operated
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: through the California Public Utilities Commission. Now here's where it
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: gets interesting. You've got to prove as part of the
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: application process, you have to prove that you're actually a
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: gay person. And Dylan, I think maybe we may need
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: to open this up to our great listening audience. Perhaps
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: they could provide some ideas on how you can prove
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: that you are a gay person.
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we should do that.
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: For example. And I'm just right right out of the
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: gate here, if you can, if you can quote all
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: of the lyrics to say Frozen, I think you may
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: be gay. I think that might be a So you
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: walk up there and you're you know, I was like,
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: all right, next, please name Bruce Bruce. Yes, what I'm gay? Okay, Bruce,
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: You've got to prove you're gay. I can quote the
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: lyrics to Frozen. Is that the one where it's let
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: it go? Yeah, it's okay, I can't remember let it go,
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: let it Okay, you're in. You're good, jess in all right, Yeah,
• 59:23
  Speaker 3: you're good. We'll give you a double portion.
• 59:25
  Speaker 4: I think the real question is is this a test
• 59:28
  Speaker 4: where you can lie or do you have to physically
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: prove yourself?
• 59:32
  Speaker 3: You see, this is the problem, like you know, the
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: whole reparation you remember, I got into a whole heap
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: of trouble because of that, you know, I wanted my
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: reparations check from San Francisco. I remember, and uh, I
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: went through the name change Lebron Starns, and I even
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: try I even changed the pronunciation of my last name
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: just to see if I can get again a double portion.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: It was Starnes. Yeah, yeah, Lebron starness.
• 59:54
  Speaker 4: And I remember you put out that highlight video of
• 59:56
  Speaker 4: you're shooting those basketballs.
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: I missed all the time though. That was the problem.
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: I think that was the gift, boy, That's what it was.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: Because I bronze up pretty good in the summertime, you know,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: I I do get pretty bronze. I haven't been out
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 3: in the sun as much, you know, still kind of
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: in the recuperation process.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah it's also hot.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah that too. And I'm afraid of the teaning. I
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: don't want to get the skin cancer from this tanning. Sid.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: So I just didn't get dark enough to get the
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: reparations money.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: You missed it this year.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: It was a shade off. So now so now we've
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: got to figure this out. What are some ways that
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: so and you know what, this may be a good idea,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, can you fake it right? I know they
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 3: say you're born that way. But what if what if
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: your trans gay? What if you want to what if
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: you're straight, but you want to identify as gay just
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: to get the check, just to get the contract. Have
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: you ever vacated you know, oh, a postcard from Fire
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: Island in New York.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 4: Maybe we should make the test. I mean we should
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: be doing this right now.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 3: Show up wearing I don't know, a fong. Is that
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: that's a good start. Probably you can show up and
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: say or some people, you know, they may. I mean,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 3: it's a business thing. So you don't want to wear
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: like the leather champs and the buck You gotta keep it,
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: you gotta keep it professionally, yeah, somewhat. So you go
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 3: and they say, what is your qualifying I wear buttless
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: leather champs. Well, sir, you're going to have to prove
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: that I have chafing. Yeah yeah, I don't know. Also,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 3: they're saying, and I actually did a chant ept on this,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: what are some stereotypical campy you know, things that you
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: could do because you again, I think everybody's wanting a job, right,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: do you want to get out there? You want to
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: you want those government contracts. That's good money.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 4: It's tough out there.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, unless you're working for Obama, and well then you're screwed.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: But it's a tough job market. According to chant Ept,
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: if you regularly consume cocktails with names it's like the
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 3: drama Queen or Aunt Linda's Revenge, you may be gay.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: I have no idea what that means.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's provable though, because you can have the receipt.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: Oh, here we go. It's also what you wear if
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: you according to chance GPT, if you wear perfectly fitted jeans,
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: Chelsea boots, linen shirts, designer sunglasses, indoors, and tank tops
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 3: at the gym, you may be gay.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: Also if it took you more than forty five minutes
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: to put on a casual outfit. If you wear skincare product,
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: but wait a second, I well, I do it for TV,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: So that's there's a legitimate.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 4: The Does the lip bomb count?
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: There?
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: Is that a skincare product?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: The lip bomb?
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 4: Because I love that stuff. I mean I've almost used
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 4: all of it. I'll be honest.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: No, it's good stuff. It's good stuff. You gotta love
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: the lip bump. I don't think that's included. If you've
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: ever hosted a brunch quote from Broadway musicals judge interior lighting,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: or say we need to talk about this rug. You
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: could be gay. Oh can I tell you about that?
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: And I'm tell you about my rug problem at home.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: So I bought this beautiful rug. I needed a rug
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 3: because you know the floors or wooden floors. It's a
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: great right rug until you look closely. And someone noticed this.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: I think it was maybe Ben Dieter. We're having a
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: big shin dig and Dieter said, Todd, do you realize
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: you've got You've got a Muslim prayer rug in your
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: living room? And I'm like, pardon me. And it turns
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: out that the rug, the giant rug that I got
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: from Macy's, had Islamic writing all over, like all over
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: the rug. I didn't even see it. It's the craziest thing,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 3: which explains why I was having my Bible studies and
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: I always wanted to do my prayer time towards the East.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 3: I didn't know what that was all about.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 4: I just everything makes sense now.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 3: It makes where sense always felt guilty eating pork. I
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: don't know where what's going on. Let us go through
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: like a mid life crisis. It was the rug who knew. Continuing,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: if you have strong opinions about fonts, if you know
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: everybody's zodiac sign, or plan vacations around restaurants, you could
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: be gang.

  Speaker 4: I think the zodiac sign is a big one.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: Really, I've been.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. I mean, if you care about if
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 4: the moon lines up with the tides and all that
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 4: fun stuff that's concerning.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: There's a great line speaking of they talk about track lighting.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: There is a famous line in the nineteen eighty nine
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: movie Steve Magnolias every woman listening to the Time Stern's
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: radio show and now knows exactly what I'm talking about,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: where they talk about how gay men always have track lighting.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: This is back in nineteen eighty nine. They were talking
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: about this. All gay men named Mark, Rick or Steve
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: have track lighting. And then a little bit later on
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 3: someone said, oh, how's your nephew. She goes, oh, Steve
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: is great. He's he's just installed track lighting. They're like, oh, okay, gotcha.
• 1:05:26

  Speaker 2: All right, Well, yesterday we lost him eighty one years old.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: He's a founding member of Chicago and you played great
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: musics on your bumps. Maybe we can put a Chicago
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: tune in for next week too, Dad of Alzheimer's. But
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 2: my name for the Obama uh library? Or well they
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: really have books there? I don't know.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 3: It's going to be all digital. So yeah, they're calling
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: it a center and not necessarily a library.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: Okay, Well my name would be the biggest black hole.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: And in parentheses you've got a problem with that.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: No, I don't have a problem with that. I you Tom,

  Speaker 3: thank you, thank you for that, and certainly our condoloces
• 1:08:36

• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: right to the chase.

  Speaker 4: Yeah, really yeah.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to get some Chicago too too.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's We've got to do that. So I
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: had no idea that he was eighty one years old,
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: no idea that he passed away nine oh one two
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. So jd Vance is
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 3: behind the podium at the White House Press Briefing Room
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: and going after Majority Leader John Thun over the Save
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 3: America Act. Take a listen to forty one place.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 17: Thank you to chress. President Leader Foon said it's unrealistic
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 17: to get the Save America Act passed by attaching it
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 17: to FAISA.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 10: Which the President's looking for.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 18: You believe this is possible, Well, why don't we try.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 18: Why don't we try and at least force people to
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 18: vote against it. One of the things that you know,
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 18: sometimes frustrates me about the legislative process is that people
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 18: will go into it saying this isn't possible. Therefore we're
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 18: not even gonna try well, let's actually see, let's try it,
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 18: and if it's not possible, then let the people put
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 18: their name on it. This is also good for the
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 18: American people. How many American senators know that the American
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 18: people love the Save America Act because they believe in
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 18: voter id But how many of those same senators don't
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 18: want to vote for it because they know that the
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 18: radical l within their own party would punish them for it.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 18: Let people go on the record and actually answers to
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 18: the American people, Which is why I think we should
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 18: do exactly as the President said.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well there you go. And again John Thune says,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: they simply do not have the votes and they will
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: not move forward. I'm with the Vice President of this.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: Make people go on the record. We need to know
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: who are the Republicans who will oppose the Save am Maria.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 3: We need to know who those individuals are. I mean,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: it's a very simple thing here. But there's some reporting.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 3: There is some reporting out there that a few days
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: ago Senator Mike Lee came under fierce attack during a
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 3: Senate Republican luncheon because of his outspokenness on this particular issue,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: and Senator Lee was castigated by John Cornyn, among others.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: I believe Cassidy out of Louisiana was also in all that,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 3: and told Mike Lee to lay off of John Thune.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: This is coming from Politico. Jordan Carney is the writer,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: she said. Senator John Cornyn is not a card carrying
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 3: member of the Senate's gops growing caucus, the Yolo Caucus,
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 3: but with a less than seven months left in office,
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 3: he appears to be feeling newly free to speak his mind.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: The latest clap back came Thursday, when Cornyn called a
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: conservative influencer a grifter. That would be Scott Pressler, the
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 3: guy with the super long hair, and then told Senator
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: Mike Lee on social media to stop blaming fellow Republicans,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: including John Thune, for the fact that the gop election
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: bill does not have support to pass inside the party.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: Cornyan said, you don't have the votes for the Save
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: America Act. Leader Thuon can't change that. It is math.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: He was directing his comments at Lee, who had just
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: pinned a post telling fun let's do this, Cornyan said,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 3: try focusing on Democrats instead of Republicans. Republican and Republican
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 3: attacks are hurting our chances to win the majority of November,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 3: says the guy who's been out there, John Cornan, attacking
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump. Unbelievable. These people, these rhinos, have no self awareness.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: Cornan is known for posting himself on his social media
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: accounts in a chamber where many Senate accounts are run
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 3: solely by staff, and he's been making it clear all
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: week he will push back on Trump. So that's the thing.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: He's on one end. He's saying, well, we just have
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: to give along, y'all. We gotta do it, we gotta
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: get along. And then he turns rhind and says, Donald
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: Trump's to the devil. He's devil man. You cannot have
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: it both ways. Unbelievable. So Cornyan is out there and
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 3: Cassidy as well, and they're giving any Republican who supports
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: the same America actor what for. At this stage of
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: the game, folks, we need more people like Mike Lee
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: to stand up and speak out. But they don't want
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: to lose their positions, they don't want to lose their
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: access to power. And that's one of the reasons why
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 3: these Republicans are simply not speaking out. And that is
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: a huge problem. Nine oh one two six zero five
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: nine two six. The telephone number today, that's nine oh
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. Getting ready.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 3: Next Sunday, I'm going to be speaking at the first
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: Baptist Church in Texas, our Canada, Texas, and we're going
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: to be starting We're going to be doing a lot
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: of events coming up in July, August, September, and October.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: And I know if you are interested in having us
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: come to your town, if you're a radio station owner,
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: give us a call and we will certainly do our
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 3: best to make those arrangements. But we're going to be
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 3: doing a pretty massive book tour across the country later
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 3: this fall, and all of that that surrounds my brand
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 3: new book called The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: And I was talking to the publisher last night. We
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: are lining up a pretty massive, pretty massive marketing campaign,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: promotional campaign. We're going to be doing a lot of podcasts,
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of interviews on TV, many of the conservative
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 3: news channels. So we'll be doing that. No, not Fox News.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 3: Fox News does not want me back on. I'm a
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 3: little too conservative for Fox News. And that's okay, that's okay.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: There's a place for everybody, So Anyway, God blessed President Trump.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 3: He wrote some very kind words for the book, and
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: I want to share these with you. This is coming
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 3: from the president quote Todd Sterns is a fierce defender
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 3: of freedom and a great patriot. He has seen and
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: understands what is happening to our country like few others.
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 3: So I've been able to interview the President I think
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: nine or ten times over the past couple of years,
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: and a lot of those interviews are in this book.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 3: You're gonna love it, and so a lot of inside stories.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: What was it like, you know, at mar A Lago,
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 3: some of those meetings. I write all about that in
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: the book. And I want you to pre order. We're
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 3: really encouraging people to pre order because we need to
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 3: make sure we do not run out of books on
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: launch day. That would not be good. So as many
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 3: of you as can, if you will pre order, that
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 3: will give us a pretty good indication. And thousands of
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 3: you have already done that we need even more. So

• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: first of all, great to see you. Hope you're doing well,
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 3: and you have no idea that I just did this right.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 3: I'm throwing a curveball here, correct.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: So Tim is clearly nervous, and that's perfectly okay. But Tim,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: you're going to be shocked and horrified by this story.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 3: First of all, Tim, have you noticed are you a
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 3: big World Cup guy?
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 5: Yes?
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 3: So you're soccer and all that stuff. All right, So
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: what's your take? First of all on all of these
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: international folks coming over and just falling in love with America.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 5: I think it's fantast You should have known they would happen.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 5: I've seen, I've heard several of them say, the media
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 5: in Europe or whatever talk so bad about it. I
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 5: can't believe it's so fantastic here.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 3: So apparently the English. One of the big stories out
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 3: of Boston, which I find humorous here, is that the
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: English and the Scottish have apparently they almost run out
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: of beer in Boston. So I don't know how they
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 3: did it, but there's a lot of drinking going on
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 3: and nobody gets drunk, you know, I guess you know,
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: they you know, they start serving the kids as children
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 3: or whatever. The other one, I was really impressed with
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 3: the Japanese. Did you see they were literally helping to
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 3: clean up a stadium after one of the matches.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 5: I saw that they brought each one and brought a
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 5: bag in to clean up afterwards.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 3: That's that's pretty impressive. We like that. We like that,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 3: we like that. And then the German guy, Freddie, the German.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 5: Let's see him.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: So he's been doing he's been doing like a TikTok
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 3: or a or an X and he's been writing on
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 3: Twitter and following his adventures. He's from Germany. His name
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 3: is Freddie, and he's been to the BUCkies. What was it?
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: Dylan he spent the BUCkies.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 4: BUCkies, he went to Taco bell, raising canes, waffle house,
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 4: all these Southern traits that we have.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 3: They're loving it.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 5: And he was enjoying the big gold.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 3: They loved it. Yeah, the whole Bucky Is thing we had.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 3: We had the very probably the French guy, So we're
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 3: gonna applay this for you. A French guy show up
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 3: at BUCkies for the very first time and he really
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 3: didn't know what to take a lesson.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 19: I saw the end of the world in the US,
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 19: and it's called BUCkies. They say it's a gas station,
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 19: but that's like a gas station as a sad sandwich.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 19: And the coffee machine that never works. This place has
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 19: one hundred and twenty pumps. One hundred and twenty. Why
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 19: are you refuelling the US force? Are you preparing for
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 19: an Indian invasion? That's terrifying. And the mascot is a
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 19: beaver in the baseball cup. I saw grand men taking
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 19: photos with the statue of Rodent. In France, we have revolutions.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 19: In the US. You boil down to a squirrel on steroids,
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 19: and inside the aggression a man with a knife of
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 19: screaming a fresh brisket on the board circumdown. I just
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 19: want to whatever, don't but I have a problem. I
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 19: wanted to hate it. I wanted to be the superior
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 19: of Frenchmen snob. But then I ate the beaver nuggets.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 19: I don't know what is in them. I think it's
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 19: a sugar butter and a pure metal fit. I mean,
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 19: I ate one, and I had the whole bag in
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 19: the parking lot, like white animal and the toilets. I
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 19: have to admit it, but they are nicer than my apartment.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 19: You could eat the brisket off the floor or in
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 19: the bathroom. It's cleaner than the hospital.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 7: So I have failed.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 19: I came to judge and I stayed for the snacks.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 19: I don't have the hat, but in my heart I
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 19: am wearing the hat.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 3: God, bless the beaver, Bless the beaver. You see, those
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 3: are the kinds of emigrants we want coming to America. Right, absolutely,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 3: give that guy dual citizenship, parady from Germany or whoever
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 3: they are? What do we know the guy's name?
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 4: Freshman?
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 3: I say that because again the road and of course
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: the maskt for you guys, is a skunk. Correct Peuce
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 3: Pierce does the does the does the maskot actually have
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 3: a name, Pewey Pewe. I like that. All right, that's good. Well, anyway,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: before we get to talking about this huge thing that
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: you guys are doing, Dylan, the story that you brought me,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: the TSA Transportation and Security Administration is now warning World
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 3: Cup tourist apparently a big problem. They are purchasing copious
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 3: amounts copious bottles of ranch Hidden Valley salad dressing and
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 3: they're trying to carry it in there. I guess they're
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 3: carry on luggage like and they said there is a limit.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 3: So they say, we appreciate the fact that you love
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 3: ranch salad dressing, but you need to put it in
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: your checked luggage. It makes a lot of sense. According
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: to the TSA, they've also discovered pizza, chicken wings case
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 3: ideas how do you do that? As well as onion
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: rings that people are trying to get through TSA security.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: So just a fair warning to any Internet folks that
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: might be listening. Let's talk about Pews and Tim. The
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: last time we had you on, you were invited by
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 3: the White House to be a part of that incredible
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 3: event when President Trump came and spoke to the National
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 3: Guard here in Memphis, and as the as a business owner,
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 3: I thought you did just such a remarkable job kind
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: of explaining the plight of small businesses in a place
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 3: like Memphis.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 5: Well, thank you. It was a memorable experience.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 3: What were some of the some of the concerns that
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 3: you had at the time, and some of the things
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 3: that you guys had had been through as a company.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 5: Well, as a company, we've had van stolen, people have
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 5: carjacked somebody. They go to front door with flowers, turn around,
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 5: the van be gone. We had to our landscape company,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 5: we had to put a fence around it. It's an
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 5: electric fence to keep quipment from being stolen. Lock the
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 5: equipment up on vehicles, that kind of thing.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 3: And now you've had the National Guard here, the police.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 3: How are things going now?
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 5: Things are going really good. You can see the crime
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 5: is down. David Kustoff told me yesterday that yesterday there
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 5: was sixteen hundred There was a thout over one hundred
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 5: State troopers and sixteen hundred National Guard in Memphis just yesterday.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 3: That's incredible. Were that many?
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 5: He looked it up on his phone. He's got some
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 5: map and told.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: Me that there are I think the last numbers. I
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: saw over ten thousand people have been arrested since the
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 3: National Guard has been in Memphis.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 5: Yes, and you can tell.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 3: You can I Yes, you're absolutely right, you can tell.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: And we're just so grateful for what the President and
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 3: the administration have done. So we love businesses and family
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 3: owned businesses here on this program. I own the radio
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: station here where a family owned a radio station, and
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 3: that just had small business owners have a special place
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 3: in my heart. But you guys are pretty massive operation
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 3: and you're celebrating what fiftieth anniversary this year's correct? Wow,
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 3: Take me back to the beginning and how did the
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 3: company start.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 5: Well, my dad was a banker here in Memphis and
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 5: his job was HR and he got tired of firing
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 5: people and just the problems with HR. And he grew
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 5: up working in a flower shop in Memphis in high
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 5: school and college and taught him everything about it. So
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 5: finally one day he came home and said, told my mom,
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 5: I'm going to buy a flower shop.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 3: And that's what he did, and the rest is history.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Then he passed away when we were fairly young,
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 5: and asked our mom if she'd take a note for
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 5: the business and sell it. To us, and she did.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 3: So you guys have been again in business fifty years.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 3: And one of the wonderful things about Pews you delivered
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 3: not just to the memissary, but really all across the nation.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 3: Correct in the world, I just and the world.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 5: Yes, we have a good network of flora around the
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 5: country and the world.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 3: We should send flowers to Freddy when he gets back
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 3: to Germany. You know he's in Houston, Dellan, So we'll
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 3: make a note of that. We'll try to get an address.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 3: What was that What is that experience like for you guys?
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 3: I mean owning a business and there are a lot
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 3: of flower shops, but what makes Pew's Flowers really stand
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 3: out indifferent than other shops.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 5: Well, I think we really taken personal. It's a family business.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 5: My dad owned it passed away. It was his passion
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 5: and we take that to heart and try to remember
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 5: that every day when someone spends you know, someone spends
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 5: one hundred dollars, that's a lot of money that should
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 5: get good service. The flower arrangement should get there. We
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 5: should call them afterwards, let them know that we got there.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 5: And I think it's just the extra steps like that.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 3: And folks, if you want a gander at the incredible
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 3: arrangements they produce, and they are just really breathtaking. I
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 3: would encourage you to go and visit the Peabody Hotel
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 3: because you guys do the flowers at the Peabody Hotel.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 5: We do every four nights at midnight, go and replace
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 5: the arrangement on the fountain.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 3: Is that how that's? I was? I've always wondered how
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 3: that was.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 5: Done every four days at midnight.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 3: Wow. So you go in and you're talking about the
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 3: big fountain in the middle of the lobby where the
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 3: ducks are correct.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 5: Yes, every four days, and then once a month we'll
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 5: go in and fix it all up every four nights,
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 5: and then once a month we replaced the whole thing.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 3: So when I when I first moved back to Memphis
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 3: from from living in New York City, we were right
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: in the thrones of COVID, and so I ended up living,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 3: I guess for three or four months at the Peabody
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 3: and there was hardly anybody. I think there was some
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 3: you know, first responders, so very small, very small group,
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 3: but they walked those ducks every single day. And I
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 3: asked them, I said, why, did you know, why are
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: you guys doing that, well, they go, we can't get
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 3: them out of the habit. So every day the ducks
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 3: walked and I many times I was the only person
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 3: in the lobby, but they played the march and the
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 3: ducks came in and those beautiful flowers, though, that's how
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 3: long does it take to put together you know those
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 3: kinds of things like for example at the Peabody Hotel, Well.
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 5: It'll take two to three people about three hours each night,
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 5: right after midnight. Of course, we have to wait till
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 5: the bar closes and some of the nefarious people leave,
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 5: and then we get started.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: Fair enough, How do you how long does it take
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: to come up with us? And how do you guys
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: come up with these these amazing designs.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 5: We've got a really good staff. Actually, my son is
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 5: one of our really good designers, and we have a
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 5: team that makes them up and they then they'll take
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 5: pictures and we'll send them out for pictures and we'll
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 5: check with what kind of flowers are available.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 3: I love the story of pus flowers and the sensitivity
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 3: and the creativity that you guys take and working with folks,
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 3: and we've certainly utilized you guys many many, many times
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 3: over the years and just love what you guys do.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 3: And you know again, folks, even one of the things
• 1:27:51

  Speaker 3: Hold on, Dylan, I tell you I've got way too
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: many emails today. That's the problem. All right, this is sorry.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: I needed a moment, all right. This story out of
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 3: let's see her cut number thirty six plays.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 17: Cops were called over the weekend in this area all
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 17: about a limonade stand here in Germantown. The kids running
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 17: and say they were only open for just over an
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 17: hour when all of a sudden the police showed up
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 17: and they weren't here to buy lemonade, and we.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 6: Had two officers kind of roll up and just go, hey,
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 6: really hate to be these guys, but you know, somebody.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 17: Did make a call Germantown Police stay. An anonymous caller
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 17: reported a lemonade stand in a van that was part
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 17: of the display we're blocking the roadway. Kind of shocked
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 17: because I was like, well, we're raising money for a
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 17: good cost. Why would someone call the police?
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 19: On that?
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 17: Saturday was Germantown's Lemonade Stand Day. Kids across the city
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 17: set up their own stands. This year had forty participants.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 17: It's a chance for them to learn business skills and
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 17: raise money for the local school district and various charities.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 17: Chloe Sexton and her little sister Charlotte raised money for
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 17: brain cancer research. They lost their mom to brain cancer
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 17: in twenty twenty two.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 6: Definitely thought when I saw officers approaching, like, wow, our
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 6: lemonade stands so good. Police have got to come and
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 6: try it. The last thing on my mind was that
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 6: we were bothering anybody, especially with so much room on
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 6: the road and with having already cleared it with our
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 6: neighborhood h.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 17: Away Box thirteen reached out to Germantown Police. They confirmed
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 17: the incident happened. They said the officers reported the truck
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 17: and the stand weren't quote, obstructing the roadway. Instead of
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 17: writing a ticket, they enjoyed a cool drink. But the
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 17: sisters were still perplexed as to why someone would call
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 17: the cops on a simple lemonade stand.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 6: Quite a first world problem. I think it's just important
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 6: how you greet the issue and how you move on.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 6: And we had a great moment to pivot, get to
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 6: know our local law enforcement and have a good day.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 17: Anyways, there raise just over one thousand dollars that will
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 17: go back to the local schools in the area and
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 17: the other half will go to brain cancer research in
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 17: honor of their mother.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: All right, there's that story again from Germantown, Tennessee. Rogue
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: renegade stand. All right, hang time, everybody gotta take a
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 3: quick break. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 3: two six. We've got a lot more to the Tom
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 3: Sterns radio show coming up next.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 20: Immigrants proving what it truly means to be a dreamer.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 20: These folks, these folks aren't Americans too. They are America.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 20: They are the beating heart of this country. They are
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 20: us and we are them. And to ignore this simple truth.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 21: To refuse to respect the contributions and experiences of people,
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 21: people who aren't exactly like us, y'all, it puts us
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 21: all at risk. Failing to see the humanity and all
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 21: people puts us all on a slippery slope.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 3: All right, that's Mother Obama just moments ago, delivering a
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 3: lot about a twenty minute attack on President Trump at
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 3: the opening of the Obama Presidential Death Star. By the way,
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 3: all the presidents there except for Donald J. Trump. I
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 3: don't think he was invited. You think you would have
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 3: gone if he had been invited anyway, George w was there,
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 3: Bill Clinton there, missus, Bill Clinton, Hillary, pardon me, as
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 3: well as Joe Biden and the nurse maid Jill. So
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 3: that's it's a rather motley crew they're at the Obama
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 3: Presidential Death Star. We'll keep tabs on all of that.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 3: I think we're still waiting for Obama to speak a
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 3: nine oh one, two zero five, nine two six or number.
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 3: Let's go to the phones here Memphis, Tennessee. Dwight is
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 3: listening to us on k W A. M. Dwight, What
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 3: is on your mind today?
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 14: Well, first of all, Todd, I appreciate the way your
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 14: station and others show honor to veterans throughout the uh
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 14: what two hundred and almost fifty years you know, of
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 14: the military. But anyway, a couple of my sons, I
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 14: had three ones in Heaven with my wife, who went
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 14: up there last a year ago, but we were They
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 14: had taken me to a around the golf out in
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 14: Millington several years ago, and a man came by with
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 14: a some sort probably in the Vietnam cap on, and
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 14: I said, welcome home, sir or whoever, and he welcomed
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 14: me home. And one of my sons, Jason, said, Dad,
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 14: do you know that fella and I have the trouble
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 14: saying this for many times. But I said, son, when
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 14: we came home from the they dishonored us, and we
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 14: figured out the way to honor each other and we
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 14: just say welcome home, whoever. So I just wonder, I
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 14: didn't even know why I was saying that. I figured
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 14: it out right there, I said, we found a way
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 14: to honor us home.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 3: So, Dwight, what an incredible thing. And I had not
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 3: I had not not heard that story before, But again
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 3: I think it's it's worth repeating for younger generations, especially
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 3: our Gen Z audience and even millennials. They may not
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 3: be aware of how our soldiers were treat when they
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 3: came home from Vietnam and the amount of hate and
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 3: vitriol that they were exposed to. That certainly, that was
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 3: just a very awful, awful moment in American history, but
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 3: also a lesson that you know, we've got to make
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 3: sure that we do everything humanly possible to welcome all
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 3: of our military personnel back home.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 14: Well, you know, I had someone that I truly love
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 14: that actually served in the Granada, not great about Russia, Stennon,
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 14: and you know, to Cuba. But anyway, he found a
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 14: way to honor himself but still dishonor us. And I said, look,
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 14: I'm not a fan of Jimmy Carter, but I do
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 14: appreciate that he pardoned the one that ran off to Canada.
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 14: And we did we did need to welcome and home,
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 14: but we did need to be welcome. And thank you
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 14: for all that, And well said, well, people, yeah, people
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 14: parse the words even, you know, especially for Vietnam. So
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 14: thank you a lot to keep up the.
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 3: Good work, Dwight. Thank you for that call, and thank
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 3: you for those kind words, and what a wonderful thing
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 3: that that you did. And folks, so what a great thing.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 3: A reminder, you know, when you see a military veteran,
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 3: you know, out there, be sure to acknowledge them and
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 3: thank them for the for serving our country. Nine oh
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. Can we
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 3: go back to what Michelle Obama said just a moment ago,
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 3: Mi Jell Obama is out there saying that the Dreamers
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 3: are America. Well, it turns out that yesterday we got
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 3: word that one of the people involved in this terror
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 3: attack on the White House in UFC fight, the alleged
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 3: plot to attack the White House, the ring leader, the mastermind,
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 3: happened to be a Dreamer, a guy from Mexico. You
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 3: can't make this up. He was granted Dreamer status by
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 3: the Obama administration and was allowed to stay in the
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 3: country even though his B two visa expired in two
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 3: thousand and one. He was granted deportation relief under the
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 3: Obama administration through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals the
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 3: DACA program. So just a reminder of ladies and gentlemen,
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 3: of the kinds of people that the Obamas welcomed into
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 3: the country. Unbelievable. Nine oh one two six zero five,
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 3: nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine oh
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five, nine to six. Gotta take
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 3: a break. We'll be right back, all right, Welcome back
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 3: to the Tom Starts Radio Show.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 11: Me.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 3: I just I'm curious, maybe we should just do a
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 3: brief survey here for our listening audience. I'm just wondering,
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 3: how how are you guys getting your news and information now?
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 3: Are you Are you still getting it through Fox News
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 3: or Newsmax or one American News? Are you getting it
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 3: from your traditional ABC, CBSNBC nightly news. Are you getting
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 3: it from your newspapers or you know, the digital versions
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 3: of your newspapers? And if so, what are the top
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 3: websites that you go to looking for news and information.
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 3: I will tell you we are watching massive growth right
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 3: now at Todd Stearns dot com over on our page.
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 3: I'm also wondering about podcasting because I think a lot
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 3: of people went there. There's a there's a survey done,
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 3: a study really really wasn't a survey, but the a
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 3: number of the cable news channels are losing audience, and
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 3: by losing, I mean hemorrhaging audience. So people are going
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 3: to other themes to find their news and information. Dylan,
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 3: I'm just curious. I mean, you're a gen you're a
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 3: gen z Er, you're a conservative guy. Where do you
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 3: ever watch Fox News or Newsmax or any of these things?
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 4: Not unless I'm at my in laws, if that makes sense,
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 4: So unless you hang out with the old folks. Yes, yes,
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 4: I get it from Twitter. Really, that's like the main
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 4: source of where I go or.
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 3: X, so you're getting like an X So any podcasts
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 3: that are you enjoy Yeah?
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, I listen to a wide write of podcast but
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 4: usually on Spotify. YouTube now has a podcast feature, So yeah.
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 3: They're saying from TV Insider that ms now, CNN, and
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 3: Fox News, and I think you have to throw the
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 3: others in there as well. Viewership down twenty eight percent
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 3: in the demo. That just tell First of all, the
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 3: demo is getting older, which means the younger demo. So
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 3: as they're aging out, they're either dying or And that's
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 3: the problem with Fox News. Their audience is dying. And
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 3: I remember when I was they were launching Fox Nation,
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 3: and they thought that Fox Nation was going to be
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 3: this cool, hip version of Fox News. But it turned
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 3: out that just a bunch of old people signed up
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 3: for it. And now they've got TV specials on national parks.
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 3: I'm not kidding you. And then they look, there's nothing
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 3: wrong with that, but the part of the revenue generating,
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 3: you know, they put together a plan, and part of
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 3: their revenue plan was that it was so difficult for
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 3: old people to unsubscribe that they would just keep that
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 3: twenty five dollars a month or whatever it was until
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 3: they kicked the bucket. I'm just saying. So, I'm just curious,
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 3: how are you getting your news when you when you're looking,
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 3: because a lot of people are not getting it from
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 3: Fox anymore, and the numbers bear this out. A lot
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 3: of people are cutting the cord. Unfortunately, mine is packaged
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 3: with my WiFi, or I would have I would have
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 3: cut the cord a long time ago. I just I
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 3: just never watched cable at all. And honestly, and I
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 3: hate to say this, but there's there's just nothing there's
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 3: nothing original right. It used to be I don't know,
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 3: back in the day, you know, Bill O'Reilly would he
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 3: would have some sort of a you know, you had
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 3: Bill O'Reilly and then Gutfeld, you had Hannity, and everything
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 3: is like so predictable now, and then on the other
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 3: cable channels, it's all just wannabes and they're not even anywhere.
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 3: It's like nobody's not even close. And I think one
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 3: of the big problems I think is that the cable TV,
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 3: the conservative cable news networks really haven't figured it out yet.
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 3: They haven't figured out the formula. How do we reach
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 3: younger generation conservatives? How do we do that? And one
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 3: of the things I to suggest, and this is just
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 3: helpful information, is that you got to hire conservatives. I mean,
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 3: that's a big part of the problem. When if you've
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 3: got a conservative cable news network and you just hire
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 3: a bunch of liberals from far left news organizations, you're
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 3: not going to get a conservative product. And unfortunately, that's
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 3: that's a big challenge for a lot of these networks.
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 3: My recommend my recommendation is to move your network to
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 3: either you know, Nashville or Saint Louis or Kansas City,
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 3: get your network, get the National Network out of New
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 3: York City. I remember when Roger Ails was alive and
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 3: was building Fox News and we were it was an
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 3: honor to be there during the glory years. I mean,
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 3: those were some fun times, but it was really in
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 3: us versus them mentality. And now Fox and all the others,
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 3: everybody wants to they all want the same accolades, they
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 3: all want to go to the same parties. They want
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 3: to go, they want to be able to hobnob. That's
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 3: not the way it used to be. It was kind
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: of us versus them, and those days have changed. I
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: don't know if you've picked up on that, but it's
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 3: really unfortunate. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 3: two six are telephone over. That's nine oh one two
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. Last night, Hermiet Dylan,
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 3: the Assistant Attorney General, dropped by the Newsmax Show. Let's
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 3: take a listen to a little bit of that conversation. Harmeat,
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 3: So good to see you, and first, thank you for
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 3: the great work that you're doing for the country. It
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 3: is great to have you on Newsmax this evening.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 10: Thanks for having me, Todd, I appreciate it.
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, let's just jump into it. I know
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 3: Major League Baseball in hot Water. They're claiming this is
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 3: just about a uniform policy, But a lot of people
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 3: out there, many people up on capitolill will see this
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 3: as targeted harassment against Christians.
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 22: What say you, Well, let's look at the legal framework
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 22: under Title seven, which is administered for private employers like
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 22: Major League Baseball teams by the EEOC or public employers
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 22: which I administer at the Civil Rights Division. It is
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 22: illegal to treat employees differently in their terms and conditions
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 22: of employment, promotion opportunities, hiring, etc. On the basis of
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 22: protected characteristics. And religion is one of those protected characteristics
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 22: under our federal laws. So that doesn't automatically mean that
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 22: the Major League Baseball employers are in the wrong here,
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 22: But what it means is that they're treating people of
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 22: faith and face faith and their faith based messages on
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 22: their hats differently than say, employees who want to have
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 22: pins that are LGBTQ or other types of messaging on
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 22: their hats, and they tolerate that.
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 10: In other words, if they're.
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 22: Applying that uniform policy in a discriminatory manner, that definitely
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 22: could be the basis of an employment discrimination claim by
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 22: a private lawyer or by the EEOC. And so that
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 22: is where I'm telling people to look is like you
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 22: should definitely have a lawyer take a look at this,
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 22: and or call my friend Andrea Jacob who's the chair
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 22: over there at the EOC, and they take care of
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 22: these types of matters.
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 3: And again, I think the issue is the word force.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 3: Where they forced or were they strongly encouraged? And that's
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 3: something for the lawyers to wrangle wrangle over. But there
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 3: had been some really troubling issues involving Christians and professional sports.
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 3: The Washington Nationals dismissed one of their workers after they
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 3: were caught going after a Catholic player. So what is
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 3: the I guess what is the guidance the advice? Maybe
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 3: people need to be reminded when it comes to issues
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 3: regarding religious liberty in the workplace.
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 22: So you know, you don't have an endless right to
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 22: an accommodation for your faith, but you know the employer
• 1:48:44
  Speaker 22: has to make a bonified effort to accommodate a good
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 22: faith effort to accommodate a bonified religious belief. And so
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 22: for example, this comes up when people are wearing yamakas
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 22: or they are on a union schedule, and they want
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 22: to observe the Sabbath, or they want to have of
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 22: the Saturday or the Sunday off or some other faith.
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 10: In this case, it's a little bit different.
• 1:49:06
  Speaker 22: It is about whether you're whether you're unevenly applying your
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 22: uniform policies. In other words, sort of targeting, harassing, or
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 22: discriminating or retaliating against somebody because of their faith. That's
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 22: also illegal. So it isn't an accommodation requirement analysis. It's
• 1:49:23
  Speaker 22: whether they're targeting people because of their faith. And so
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 22: if a baseball player can prove that the guy standing
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 22: next to him is allowed to wear a rainbow pin
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 22: on his hat or scrawl some other type of a
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 22: message that Major League Baseball likes, then they're not really
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 22: applying their uniform policy. They're just applying it against Christians,
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 22: and that's not acceptable. And so I think that's where
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 22: I would look. I don't have enough facts to know
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 22: whether that's what they're doing, but you know, like if
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 22: you're working at a bar and you have all these
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 22: pieces of flare on your jacket but the cross is
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 22: not allowed, or the feet of representing unborn children is
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 22: not allowed, you might have a claim on religious discrimination.
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 3: And if there's another crazy story out of California that
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 3: seems to be ground zero for crazy these days. Where
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 3: there was a public utility that put out put out
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 3: an item that certainly appeared to imply that they were
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 3: only looking for contracts from LGBT businesses, and you had
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 3: to prove that you were in fact an LGBT business,
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 3: What can you tell us about that.
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 22: I'm cracking up a little bit because the idea of
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 22: proving how gay you are just is kind of anathema
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 22: and silly, But I want to be fair to this utility.
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 10: It doesn't originate from the utility.
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 22: This crazy policy is a dictate from California's Public Utilities Commission,
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 22: and the.
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 10: LGBTQ part is a tiny part of it.
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 22: The big scandal is that they hand out contracts and
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 22: they force the utilities to use suppliers on the basis
• 1:50:55
  Speaker 22: of race and gender, and then LGBTQ is kind of
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 22: the one that's getting the press right now. But I
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 22: think it's a much larger scandal than what you're talking about.
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 10: And so I'm going to break some news for you here, Todd.
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 22: I just sent a letter in the last few minutes
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 22: to all the commissioners of California's Public Utilities Commission, warning
• 1:51:15
  Speaker 22: them that the supplier diversity program that they're forcing down
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 22: the throats of California's public utilities providers is unconstitutional and
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 22: that private parties could sue them for that, such as
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 22: vendors to put potential vendors to public utilities that are
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 22: not selected for contracts because they don't check the boxes
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 22: of the protected categories that they're trying to favor. And
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 22: of course, the United States Department of Justice, if the
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 22: Attorney General certifies that the cases in the national interest,
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 22: could unleash me on the Public Utilities Commission and on
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 22: companies that are violating the civil rights of potential suppliers
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 22: in their state.
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 3: All right, So, if you want to continue listening to
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 3: the rest of the interview with her Metel and head

• 1:52:16
  Speaker 3: Legion is fighting back over a gay pride of it
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 3: where they're actually posting gay pride flags over veterans banners.
