- 1:22A text message two weeks ago from somebody I thought
- 1:25it was pretty interesting. You don't sound like you're from
- 1:27New York.
- 1:29Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 1:30Speaker 11: I've talked to people in Georgia that think Virginia's a
- 1:33northern state.
- 1:34Speaker 9: Oh, you're a Yankee from Virginia, ain't you?
- 1:38Speaker 12: So?
- 1:38Speaker 11: I guess it's all perspectual. Whereast all you know, piles
- 1:42of you know, strands of DNA all kind of bumping together.
- 1:46Aren't we unchangeable DNA?
- 1:49Speaker 5: Oh?
- 1:50Speaker 9: He went there, didn't he? Don't forget.
- 1:52Speaker 11: Our friends at Trans Siberian Orchestra have hooked me up
- 1:56with tickets to shows in cities where their band is
- 2:02playing in conjunction with this show. Now it's not not
- 2:05like this show is bringing the band to, say Portland,
- 2:10but they're playing Portland and we're heard in Portland. So
- 2:14I'll give you a chance. If you're listening to us
- 2:16on Freedom nine seventy or even on KFI R in
- 2:20corvalis to enter at Joe Thomas in the morning dot
- 2:24com for the Portland show, or Sacramento is on there, Greenwich, Connecticut.
- 2:30We were all over there, to Daytona, Florida, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa.
- 2:38Everybody's talking about pop music. I think we're about to
- 2:42add somebody in Beaumont. Every time I hear it was
- 2:49a major Beaumont in any event, but we need to
- 2:53have Beaumont join in the family these mornings. Here it
- 2:58is the anniversary of the terror at tax in Israel
- 3:02on October seventh, twenty twenty three, and I thought this
- 3:06was an interesting headline story from the Huffington Puffington Post,
- 3:11as Rush used to call it. Donald Trump says there's
- 3:14no reason to be good except for dot dot dot.
- 3:19Today's winner for a clickbait headline.
- 3:22Speaker 9: You know what what?
- 3:23Speaker 11: Donald Trump says the only reason to be good for
- 3:25is religion. Donald Trump suggests that the only way a
- 3:32country is good is religion. He suggests being good is
- 3:37to prove worthiness to God for what the next step
- 3:40is likely referring to heaven, writes the Huffington Post.
- 3:47Speaker 9: That's just it's every.
- 3:50Speaker 11: Now and then I'm reminded of how funny they can be. Sometimes.
- 3:53I know they don't try. I mean, they're not as
- 3:55intentionally funny as say the Babylon b but oh the
- 4:00Babylon being. Sometimes they look and say, we can't do
- 4:03anything with that. It's just funny on its own merits.
- 4:08President Trump sat down with Newsmax TV yesterday and talked
- 4:14about several things, including how close they are to reaching
- 4:20a peace deal in the Middle East with hamas.
- 4:28Speaker 13: Well.
- 4:28Speaker 1: I think we're getting very close. And you know, it's
- 4:31been going on for There are those that say three
- 4:33thousand years, let's say a couple of hundred years. Okay,
- 4:35let's say a few centuries. But it's you know, many,
- 4:39many years. It's been going on forever. And I think
- 4:42we're very very close to having a deal. We have
- 4:44all of the Arab nations, we have all of the
- 4:46Muslim nations, we have many many just I mean, the
- 4:50world is in favor of having this deal done. It's
- 4:52a very specific deal, and it will bring peace to
- 4:56the Middle East, beyond Gaza. It'll bring peace to the
- 4:59Middle East, and I think there's a lot of goodwill
- 5:01being shown now. It's pretty amazing, actually we pull this
- 5:05one off.
- 5:07Speaker 11: Early voting is now underway in California for a special
- 5:10election that could determine whether or not to pass a
- 5:14ballot proposition this November to alter the state's congressional districts.
- 5:21In the center Square is a battle between the two
- 5:23men campaigning for either side of this issue. Gavin Newsom

- 5:38non citizens, Millions and tens of millions of dollars for
- 5:43LGBTQ projects, electric buses in foreign lands are all part
- 5:50of what Chuck Schumer is looking for in the budget process.
- 5:55According to Louisiana Senator John Kennedy, former FBI Director James
- 6:01Comi had been subpoenaed to testify before the House Oversight
- 6:05and Government Reform Committee that sent them a letter saying
- 6:09it would be a waste of your time. Technically, he said,
- 6:13quote that he has no knowledge and information relevant and
- 6:18that coming or filing a deposition would be an unproductive
- 6:24consummation of the committee's scarce time and resources. President Trump's
- 6:31administration has ended diplomatic efforts to end the drug wars
- 6:36with Venezuela. Rick Grinnell, Trump's special envoy, who had been
- 6:41talking with President Nicholas Maduro for months, has left Caracas
- 6:47and headed home, saying there is no deal to be
- 6:50made there. And Chuck Grassley says the FBI under Biden

- 13:12Speaker 3: On a need to know basis, because you need to
- 13:15know the first thing today.
- 13:33Speaker 11: So I brought this up and a text message from
- 13:37Bob in Oregon made me think of this. He sent
- 13:41he likes to send these graphic memes that he finds online,
- 13:45and I thought this one was poignant since we're talking
- 13:48about the second anniversary of the attacks and hiding criminal
- 13:53behavior behind religiosity and the religion being fine with it
- 13:57because they make money. If our entire theology is God
- 14:01is love and do not judge, then you don't have
- 14:04Biblical Christianity.
- 14:06Speaker 9: You have Oprah.
- 14:08Speaker 11: And I've seen you. You know, there's a lot of
- 14:10this movement. It's it is almost well. And to say
- 14:18this is going to sound to risk on Jefferson. But
- 14:21Jefferson wrote a Bible without any references to the historical
- 14:30physical Jesus in it, just the powables and the psalms
- 14:38and those things that avoided specifically talking about Jesus incarnate.
- 14:46And I don't know if he did it as a
- 14:47thought exercise to see if you could what it would
- 14:51look like if you edited Jesus out of the Bible.
- 14:56But it exists, and it's there, and people are out
- 15:00there trying to create and there was actually I think
- 15:03Time magazine did a piece on these churches that are
- 15:08really more gathering places. It's community centers, come and have
- 15:15fellowship and belonging, but without the hey, don't do this
- 15:23stuff or you lose kind of stuff, the judgment free
- 15:27kind of church. And I was thinking about this with
- 15:31my new buddy I've met him last night for the
- 15:35first time ever, Billy Wagner, Baseball Hall of Famer, the
- 15:39hero of all of us who wore the number thirteen
- 15:42through our baseball careers, no matter how short they were.
- 15:46But he was talking to this group at this first
- 15:49tea event and he was talking about losing and how
- 15:52important losing is in humanity's development, how important not just
- 16:01sport but in anything is Failure is what we learn from.
- 16:08And one of the dangerous conceits that this authoritarian regime
- 16:13is trying to sell you is they can bring you
- 16:16this utopia of never failing. You will never fail. You'll
- 16:22also never achieve, but you'll never fail. We will assign
- 16:27you a task based on your aptitudes.
- 16:29Speaker 9: You will do that task.
- 16:31Speaker 11: We will shovel six feet of dirt on you when
- 16:33you're done, or perhaps turn you into food because soilent green.
- 16:42And it's one of those dark places in Marxism. It's dehumanizing,
- 16:49it's dispiriting that has to be fought against. And that
- 16:57american Ism, if there is an american Ism, and this
- 17:01is one of those raging debates, you know, in immigration reform,
- 17:07What is the American culture? So our buddy Corey D'Angelis
- 17:11works the American Culture Project. What is the American culture?
- 17:18The American culture understands that my rights, it should They
- 17:22don't teach it anymore. And it's been generations. We need
- 17:25to get back to it. And one of the reasons
- 17:27Charlie Kirk was so dangerous was he was reintroducing the
- 17:32concept of American culture to young people. Paul, you can't
- 17:37have that. They were our prize students. We spent thirteen
- 17:41years in doctrinating them into fair is fair and just
- 17:45bring stuff in for the collective. And so the idea
- 17:56that you have to lose sometimes in order to appreciate
- 18:00winning and the effort that has to be put into winning.
- 18:04Speaker 9: I know a lot of bitter old men, like the fellow.
- 18:07Speaker 11: Who sings our entree song here, Bruce Springsteen is a bitter, bitter.
- 18:14Speaker 9: Angry old man.
- 18:15Speaker 11: Why because most of the crap he has sung about
- 18:18a was Marxist gaslighting, but also b hasn't come to pass,
- 18:25and he's angry about it. A lot of these old
- 18:29pop folk rock stars are angry melon camp. These people
- 18:33are angry because they haven't gotten it yet. It's the
- 18:36matter with you people. Me in my big Hollywood mansion,
- 18:40we should be writing songs paying tribute to those of
- 18:43you who are working facelessly to feed us and clothe
- 18:49us and to make our limousines for us. And they
- 18:52get angry and they get bitter because they're like, why
- 18:55didn't you people realize how great the utopia could be.
- 19:02Yet you look at people like me, I've got a
- 19:05few miles on my odometer. Uh, certainly. You look at
- 19:09Rush till the day he died. He was he was
- 19:14like a conservative hug if you listen to him. I
- 19:17never quite got it until I realized he was. He
- 19:20was like somebody sitting with you and getting it, you
- 19:24know what I mean. And so it's such a powerful thing.
- 19:29But you listen to the left wingers like Howard Stern
- 19:32and Don Imus and these guys who wanted to bring
- 19:34on the authoritarianism because they believed they would be part
- 19:37of the authoritarian capal.
- 19:39Speaker 13: And they're angry. They're embittered, Bernie Sanders, Chuck Schumer, They're
- 19:46angry old men who have grown embittered because American culture
- 19:53is to the liberty of the heart. And maybe we
- 19:59just need, you know, people writing better songs for us.
- 20:01Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 20:02Speaker 11: I mean, we were starting to find those artists, and
- 20:05Stevie Nicks, of all people, alos do like a big
- 20:08fundraiser for Charlie Kirk. Really, I only saw a headline
- 20:13about it. I wasn't looking for a Stevie Nicks story.
- 20:22But the idea that you are free to govern yourself.
- 20:26Is this this is maybe the last We're tenuously holding
- 20:34on to it. It was a story that I saw
- 20:39that I think is indicative of what I'm talking about here.
- 20:46This is an opinion piece written by Austin Surat for
- 20:53The Hill. A police song. Yeah, Gordon Sumner, He's another
- 20:59bitter old man. Sting's real name. Boston Globe's story ran
- 21:06under the headline Charlie Kirk put Massachusetts professors on a
- 21:10watch list. Now some teach in fear. This is the list,
- 21:16you know, turning point. One of the things they did
- 21:18is if you had a professor that targeted and you know,
- 21:21wouldn't accept differing ideas, especially from conservatives, they would wind
- 21:26up on this list. This list isn't like the FBI's list,
- 21:30but to be fair, lists that come with punitive damages
- 21:39need to be watched out for lists of watch lists. Oh,
- 21:43you can say Joe Thomas talks crazy stuff in the morning.
- 21:46Speaker 9: I appreciate the publicity.
- 21:50Speaker 11: Just make sure you spell the name right and tell
- 21:52them what radio station you can hear us on.

- 22:04a friend of mine whom we were just praying for
- 22:07because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 27: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 9: Is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 27: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 4: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17and healthcare ability?
- 22:18Speaker 27: Honestly, brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was,
- 22:24members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:30call in with your need that is.
- 22:32Speaker 9: Just yes, refreshing.
- 22:34Speaker 27: Yes, that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 9: What I keep telling people.
- 22:36Speaker 4: People love meda share and they love saving money. The
- 22:39typical family can save five hundred dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 27: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
- 22:46and I mean different in a very very good way.
- 22:48Speaker 4: It is good different.

- 23:02Speaker 28: I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary Medical Association.
- 23:06Artificial intelligence is everywhere and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11better care for pets, from AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases. AI supports
- 23:20veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:34on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53center of our profession. For more information on AI and
- 23:57veterinary medicine, visit AVMA dot org.
- 24:04Speaker 8: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?

- 28:25laughing at the elderly nerd who still chases baseball players
- 28:29around to get their autograph sent him a picture last night.
- 28:33Speaker 9: Been me and Billy Wagner.
- 28:36Speaker 2: Hanging out with you know, just rubbing elbow.
- 28:38Speaker 11: When you spent your life, you know, I was born
- 28:41on a Friday the thirteenth, So every sporting event I've
- 28:44ever played in. I wore the number thirteen and I
- 28:49actually the shirt he signed for me was a charity
- 28:52softball shirt. I played with the Boston Bruins alumni and
- 28:59the New England and Patriots alumni doctor Bill Nkitis and
- 29:04Steve Grogan and Ken Linzman, who was very mad because
- 29:08Ken Linsman wanted number thirteen. I was wearing number thirteen,
- 29:12but it was in a charity softball event there.
- 29:15Speaker 2: Yeah, I have I always I don't. I don't have
- 29:18a lot, you know, I always got I got emails
- 29:21when they meant something. In other words, I had to
- 29:23meet the person, had to have social relationship with them before,
- 29:28you know, before I you know, instead of just you know,
- 29:30but Billy Wagner, We've all had, I think in the
- 29:32area have all had kind of this relationship with Billy.
- 29:36Speaker 9: I mean, I was a small town and he was
- 29:38going to the Hall.
- 29:39Speaker 2: Of Fame Crose when I was living in Crose, and he,
- 29:42you know, I stood and watched his son pitch and
- 29:45we stood over the fence, and you know, he told
- 29:47me everything from Tommy John to how to.
- 29:49Speaker 9: Throw a curveball.
- 29:50Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Billy, Billy's just one of those
- 29:52guys you know, and so that's that's great. Well, Trevor
- 29:56Lawrence is one of those guys too. Oh man, he
- 29:58got caught on TV last night picking his nose.
- 30:00Speaker 3: That was good.
- 30:01Speaker 9: No, I didn't know that. It was uh, it was.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Pretty it was pretty brutal. And he became a headline
- 30:07today in one of my websites that I go to.
- 30:10Awful announcing er Larry brown Sport threw a pick anyway. Yeah,
- 30:14so yeah, he threw a pick. Unfortunately he was on
- 30:17the sideline. Jaggs quarterback Trevor Lawrence had a fourth quarter
- 30:21drive thirty one to twenty eight to win over Kansas
- 30:23City last night, which is good. Well, anyway, thirty seconds
- 30:26to play, I get they get a pass interference calling
- 30:28the ends on the one yard line from the win.
- 30:31On the next play, he tripped on his right guard's foot,
- 30:33fell down, stumbled, getting up, circled, and he scored the
- 30:37game winner. Of course, you know Joe Buck calling the
- 30:40play by play and Troy Aikman had to yell, but
- 30:42that's what happened.
- 30:43Speaker 10: Personal goal with thirty seconds left.
- 30:45Speaker 2: Now, Lawrence goes down, ask to get.
- 30:48Speaker 24: Up, break's the tackle, touchsdown?
- 30:53Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, we had a good a good goal
- 30:54line play that we liked off a little play action,
- 30:57and but never got to see it because what's going down.
- 31:00I came out in the center, So I mean, I'm
- 31:01just panic, honestly, because I was trying to get up
- 31:03to get the ball out of my hand. So the clock,
- 31:04I mean, we didn't have any timeouts, you know, whatever
- 31:06I could do to just get up as fast as
- 31:07possible and end up tripping again.
- 31:09Speaker 9: So I was cram.
- 31:10Speaker 12: Sure, it's pretty funny on the tape. So yeah, I mean,
- 31:13what a crazy, crazy finish.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Well I didn't look as funny on tape as the
- 31:16pick he threw on the sideline.
- 31:18Speaker 9: So anyway, with all that, with all that being.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Said, but it's been eighteen years since the Jags have
- 31:23won four of the first five. Now all these other
- 31:27stories that are circulating are just getting into the bizarro world.
- 31:30We start with Paul Finebaum, and I've never been a
- 31:33real fan of Paul finebamb. I think his show is
- 31:36just a bunch of callers who go under fake names
- 31:39and it's Alabama versus Georgia, and his talk show is
- 31:42just he never offers much. I'm not a big Paul
- 31:45Fine bomb fan, I don't think he gives ESPN much.
- 31:48And then he goes on that the talk show out
- 31:51Kick last week and says he may run for US senate.
- 31:54That the whole Charlie Kurt thing. He's seventy years old
- 31:57and he thinks now that maybe he had a run
- 31:59for you s senate in Alabama. Well, the word was
- 32:02that ESPN said you're gone for for a couple of days.
- 32:05Speaker 9: You can be talking politics. And you know.
- 32:08Speaker 2: Why if they watched Jamel Hill apparently allegedly banned him
- 32:13and took him off some shows.
- 32:15Speaker 9: He did his se show Saturday morning. He's supposed to
- 32:18be back on, but he.
- 32:18Speaker 2: Did his sec call in show last night. A guy called, hey,
- 32:22Paul Judge here, I'd like to I'd like to talk
- 32:26to you about, you know, you running for politics, and
- 32:29they cut him off and five months said. He sat
- 32:31there for five seconds and he goes, oh, okay, let's
- 32:34take our next call. So anyway, and it was Clay
- 32:38Travis who who said, you know, said that's it's not true,
- 32:43and he said, you know, ESPN has canceled all network
- 32:46appearances on all shows. That was the report. But anyway,
- 32:50ESPN was funding. Bill Hofmeier said no, that's that's not
- 32:53true at all, you know, with with the ESPN. Now again,
- 32:57so the talking heads were at it, yes today because
- 33:00of the Bill Bett. Now there's another Bill Belichick story breaking.
- 33:03Not only is is Carolina just horrible? I mean, yeah,
- 33:08they're two and three, but their wins are against Charlotte,
- 33:11who couldn't you know, beat a mid school team, and
- 33:15then they beat Richmond. So anyway, now the heels. Belichick
- 33:22did not want to honor Drake May because the Patriots
- 33:25went over Buffalo and had the really good win, did
- 33:28not want to say anything. And so Sean McDonough, who
- 33:31has you know, been in the business for forty three years,
- 33:33went on our kick and said, you know what, I'm
- 33:35not too sure about Belichick's legacy anyway.
- 33:38Speaker 32: I already think his legacy here was in question and
- 33:41probably around football just because you know, the narrative has
- 33:44become you know, before Tom Brady, he had a losing
- 33:48record and he was in Cleveland, you know, and the
- 33:50people who were with him in Cleveland say, well, you
- 33:52know they I heard Nick Saban the other day on
- 33:54game They talked about a great job that he did
- 33:56building the Cleveland Browns up and then obviously they moved,
- 33:59and people who are defending the record there will say, well,
- 34:02the moving of the franchise through the whole thing into
- 34:04a spiral, which is possible. I think I think his
- 34:07legacy was already in question here before the whole North
- 34:10Carolina thing.
- 34:11Speaker 2: And so if you want a record to throw around
- 34:13the water cooler today, the Patriots were twenty nine and
- 34:15thirty eight in four seasons after Bravey left for Tampa
- 34:18Bay won the Super Bowl the first year with the Bucks.
- 34:21Belichick went four and thirteen in his final season. Now
- 34:24goes to college, gets it, brings his twenty four year
- 34:26old girlfriend, who has changed You talk about changing the narrative.
- 34:29Speaker 9: Jordan Hudson is just ridiculous.
- 34:32Speaker 2: Whether and so she's monitoring social media and whether she's
- 34:37who knows the involvement Carolina is just I'm I'm excited
- 34:41for Carolina. I hope they're they're upper echelon brass. They're
- 34:45just really excited. And look, I like Bill Belichick. I
- 34:49met Bill Belich. You know, he's he's a solid guy.
- 34:52But why he got back in the game and why
- 34:54he could there was no even if the heels were five,
- 34:57and oh, it's just you know, it might have made
- 35:01a difference.
- 35:02Speaker 9: But and then you throw in the.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Mark Sanchest story. So this story couldn't get any more
- 35:07bizarre than it is. There was he's still playing of
- 35:10the truck drap. No, he's on Fox and he got
- 35:13a knife fight and they've got they've got uh security
- 35:18camera video of him being stabbed after after he was
- 35:21stabbed walking to the bartender. He gets a bartender to
- 35:24help him. Meanwhile, the truck driver released pictures today of
- 35:28the hospital he got in a fight with a guy
- 35:30driving a grease truck whatever that is, an oil truck,
- 35:33maybe they call it tuck. This guy looks like he
- 35:37was in a knife fight with four guys. This truck
- 35:40driver got the tar beat out of him, and they
- 35:43they're running hospital pictures of him. And then so the
- 35:46sand Chest story has made headlines every day, every day
- 35:50regarding you know, and so Fox has put him on
- 35:52the shelf for a while. And uh so this this
- 35:57narrative of the last two or three days when we
- 35:59should be embracing baseball and what's going on, and you know,
- 36:03the Brewers playing well and the Dodgers winning, and you know,
- 36:06the Yankees getting killed. We should be embracing, but no,
- 36:09we're We're in bizarro world right now.
- 36:11Speaker 9: Well, isn't this a little bit? You know?
- 36:13Speaker 11: And it's the fruit of you know, there's so many channels,
- 36:17so many places you talk about OutKick and Clay Travis
- 36:20and what he's built for himself and stuff like that.
- 36:23But you know, when it used to be just CBS, ABC.
- 36:26Speaker 9: Fox.
- 36:28Speaker 11: And then your locals, you didn't have everyone in their
- 36:31grandmother with some association with a team. So, you know,
- 36:36these teams are all of a sudden in damage control whatever.
- 36:40They're trying to protect their image from some you know,
- 36:43contributor or whatever. And so people are getting in quote
- 36:48trouble for things because they've got you know, field passes
- 36:52for a college team and then they were caught, you know,
- 36:56yeah know, snorting cocaine off of a stripper's belly or something,
- 37:00and and it's like.
- 37:01Speaker 9: Oh, here your passes. I'm being punished. It's my free
- 37:04speech rights.
- 37:05Speaker 11: And come on, guys, don't get into a fight with
- 37:08a grease truck driver. Trust me, I used to run
- 37:11a restaurant. I know what the guys are like who
- 37:13drive the grease trucks.
- 37:14Speaker 2: And exhibition games started in the NBA. Uh Cooper, you know,
- 37:19uh a Cooper flag had had a good start and
- 37:23he so then one of the Memphis Grizzlies decided to
- 37:26do the gun the gun gesture and during an NBA
- 37:30you know, so he's getting fine.
- 37:32Speaker 9: All these people are just getting fine left and right.
- 37:34Speaker 2: So anyway, it's just bizar.
- 37:36Speaker 9: You know, I'm waking up on a Tuesday. He is
- 37:37only Tuesday, and it's no here's it.
- 37:39Speaker 11: Instead of Max notebook, it's Mac's police blotter.
- 37:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:43Speaker 9: Really, we used to go sports courts. You know.
- 37:45Speaker 2: We have that as a headline. So anyway, have a

- 38:05I strongly believe that no one should ever pay one
- 38:08penny more in taxes than they are legally obligated. Unfortunately,
- 38:13for most hardworking Americans, this just isn't the case. Why
- 38:17because most people spend more time planning next weekends getaway
- 38:21than trying to ensure they're going to pay less than taxes.
- 38:24My financial fitness team has put together some materials that
- 38:27I know are going to help you. It's the Tax
- 38:29Savings Kit. Tax Savings Kit includes three things, free tax analysis,
- 38:35top ten ways to pay less than taxes, and an

- 39:04Speaker 8: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 39:08Speaker 13: Yes?
- 39:09Speaker 8: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 39:14oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 39:18to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 39:23By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 39:28and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 39:33and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 39:36precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,

- 44:29behind the door, And that's always the problem. More problem
- 44:33than that is what is governing the person behind the door.
- 44:38And that's the importance of some of these stories you
- 44:41were tying together. This Boston Globe editorial about Charlie Kirk's list,
- 44:46which has been the cornerstone of turning point USA forever,
- 44:49which is tell us which professors target conservatives for punitive administration.
- 44:58And it's this authoritarianism, Andy writes in from Florida, I
- 45:04left because of their prosecutorial discretion and their ability to
- 45:10go after whoever they feel like. This is what makes
- 45:13the Jay Jones story so important, because it's about a
- 45:18guy who fantasizes about shooting political opposition, about to have
- 45:24control of an office where he can go after them
- 45:27with the force majure of the law enforcement community. And
- 45:32from a contrary standpoint, I just saw this string of
- 45:35text messages, not text message tweets, ex'es, whatevers, celebrating Trump
- 45:42going into Oregon with the National Guard using insurrection, saying
- 45:47that great, now we can arrest some of these leftists

- 45:56reparations are a thing. It's an emotion we want. We

- 46:16We need to start, you know, you know, working on
- 46:19not having this retributional politics, and part of it begins
- 46:24by taking away some of the power that these offices
- 46:27have to go after and and just target political groups,

- 46:48in doctrinating the kids.

- 46:52What do you think, Doc.
- 46:55Speaker 10: Well, common sense? Huh oh, common sense. I kind of
- 47:02remember there was this guy in Germany that came to power,
- 47:05oh my gosh, ninety years ago because nobody paid attention.
- 47:11Speaker 9: To what he wrote. Right, maybe we ought.
- 47:15Speaker 10: To pay attention to things people putting text messages because

- 48:13Woe people? Right?
- 48:15Speaker 9: Yeah?
- 48:18Speaker 10: And it occurs to me that we could make that
- 48:20a thing where sorrows or wherever money comes in and
- 48:25it gets distributed to akbou or whoever. And it looks
- 48:29like the little Blue people were giving the money out. Well, actually, no,
- 48:33that's not where it's coming from. Dargamels behind the whole thing.
- 48:37Speaker 9: I guess. I don't know.

- 49:26a millennial or a zoomer boomer.
- 49:31Speaker 10: Well really efforts comes to mind, but you can't use
- 49:35that on the radio. So there that is. So you
- 49:41always wore thirteen because you were born in the thirteen, Joe,
- 49:44always wore twelve or thirteen now later on, maybe by
- 49:50choice because I was used to wearing a number, but
- 49:52you know why I started out wearing twelve or thirteen, Joe.
- 49:56Speaker 9: No, okay, So you.
- 49:59Speaker 10: Know Great Fruit League, Little League, Bay brief ball, high

- 50:08in the neighborhood.
- 50:09Speaker 9: Yeah, okay, Now back in the day.
- 50:14Speaker 10: Comes to mind. I never ever put on a new
- 50:18baseball uniform, Joe. You know, those were organizational gear back
- 50:24in the day. And sure, I don't think I ever
- 50:27had a pair of baseball pants that somebody's mom before
- 50:30mine had not set on the knees back together in anyway.
- 50:36So you know, you only had like the fifteen or
- 50:40eighteen uniforms or whatever. And the uniforms were numbered according
- 50:47to size, were they Okay?
- 50:51Speaker 9: See I remember them being.
- 50:53Speaker 11: They were handed out by what position you batted.
- 50:56Speaker 9: In the lineup.
- 50:57Speaker 10: Yeah, second basement, right field always wore a water or
- 51:01two pretty much Oh, and yeah, I was tall enough.
- 51:08I got a twelve or thirteen every year all day.
- 51:11There you go, just the way that interesting how Ie is.
- 51:16Speaker 11: No, there's numerologists out there that would play, you know,
- 51:20havoc with this. I just always and it always drove
- 51:23my teammates crazy. I was never popular with them because
- 51:26they wanted me to be superstitious. And I would look
- 51:29at them and say, how do you expect somebody born
- 51:31on the Friday, born on a Friday the thirteenth to
- 51:35be in the least little bit superstitious? And they'd look
- 51:39at me, say, how do you leave your house? How
- 51:41do you leave your house knowing you were born on
- 51:43such a day. I'm like, I'm not a member of
- 51:45the Knight's Templar. I'm not really worried about what can
- 51:47happen to me on Friday the thirteenth. And they would
- 51:50look at me with that look of saying, who's the
- 51:52Knight's Templar? But that was just the very gestative phases
- 51:57of Joe Thomas in the morning.
- 52:00Speaker 10: Whoa Friday the thirteenth never was like a big deal
- 52:04for us. Now stepping on a chalk line, that's a
- 52:06different thing.
- 52:08Speaker 9: Oh you mean on the way into the field.
- 52:10Speaker 10: Yeah, you don't want to step on the chalk line.
- 52:14Speaker 11: I mean, I can see the reason you don't want
- 52:16to scuff it up, and the umpire could give you, you know,
- 52:18hell for it.
- 52:21Speaker 10: Anyway. Hey, it's one last thing, just a random observation.
- 52:26Speaker 2: Now, everything on.
- 52:28Speaker 10: The baseball field, that white line is fair territory everywhere, Okay,
- 52:36all the way back to the point of.
