  Speaker 1: The first Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Media Network, all natural and free of artificial intelligence.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: George said, steal me step. You have a day at least.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: For work, when the sun comes up, drops a kid
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: to scooming.
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: Then Joe has everything a dream, do.
• 0:31
  Speaker 5: All the treasures and needs no one that Joe's smiled.
• 0:37
  Speaker 6: He only ask.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Joe, I see you yesterday. I want to be And
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: I don't mean that in that creepy kind of grand
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: platinum way. I just I just missed being here with
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: you and breaking down the news of the day and
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: chewing on it and putting our particular thumbprints all over
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: It's here at Freedom Fest and and again maya culpa.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: It's one of the reasons we drove to Seapack. Last
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: year was fun because we got to visit a lot
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: of the affiliates like WGO WAM in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: so that was kind of cool to do as well.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: But here and foremost is the reason we drove from
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Charlottesville to Dallas for Seapack. And we should have driven
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: to Las Vegas because air travel is not good for
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: what I do.
• 1:40
  Speaker 7: With you.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Because inexpensive air travel generally happens when we are on
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: the air. The truism of it. You want to fly
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: at one o'clock in the after and that's just a
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: marketplace speaking. I know there are people who.
• 1:57
  Speaker 8: Are saying, oh, you know, what's whether it's airfare stuff
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: changing and as a repof and.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: I get it, but if you want it's a commodity.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: A seat on an airplane is a commodity, and the
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: more people that want that commodity, the higher the price
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: is going to be. So a seat on a seven
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: point thirty seven out of Charlottesville at six in the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: morning is going to cost less than the same seat
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: on the same airplane going to the same place at
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: two in the afternoon. And I'm a girl on a budget,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: so you know, in order to fly anywhere, we have
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: to make those concessions. And we thought we had found
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a way, found some cheap airfares, but it was through
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: all of these daisy chain of events that left us
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: once the storms hit Charlotte two days ago, sitting there
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: with our airfare in our hands and stuck in an
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: airport where Andy and he couldn't even listen because he
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: heard we were stranded in Charlotte Douglas Airport and he's like,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I can't stand that place, and so just being there,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know if we lost a listener. Andy is
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: a dear friend and it has been longtime caller, first
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: time listener kind of thing. And I hope we didn't
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: lose him as a listener just because we had to
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: fly through Charlotte Airport. But it ain't happening much more.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: We're going to find other ways to get the show
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: where we have to go, and we want to go
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: where the news is and we want to go where
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the cool stuff is. Here in Las Vegas for Freedomfest.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Freedomfest dot com is where you follow along and on
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: social media Freedom Fest on Facebook and Instagram and rumble
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: and all those places. But we must tell you what
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: went on last night so that we may discuss. Graham
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Platner is out in Maine. Democratic Party held an emergency
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: meeting of the state Central Committee to discuss and they're
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: going to have a convention at a heretofore undecided date
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: but very soon to pick through the smoke filled back
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: room replacement for Grand Platner on the ballot. Some of
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: the front runners Senate President Troy Jackson and also Nirav Shah,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: who fun fact used to run the Center for Disease
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Control and Prevention, and those are the folks we need
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: more in charge of the government. President Trump dropping some
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: bombs hitting some sites in Iran after they hit some
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: ships in the Strait of Horror Moves. President Trump at
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: the NATO summit yesterday, saying the ceasefire is over, and
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Iran warned that it will close the Straight of Horror
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Moves again if we do that anymore. Not saying they're
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: going to do it after we did that, but they
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: told state run television following any strike, two immediate actions
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: will be taken. First, the Straight of Horror Moves will
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: be completely closed to all maritime traffic, and second, Iran
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: will strike enemy targets at a ratio of at least
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: two to one. The question is state run media is
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: it reporting what the IRGC says or what the elected
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Iranian officials who have been meeting with JD. Vance and
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the other negotiators said on the reports of the bombings
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: going on. S and P dropped five hundred and seventy
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: seven points yesterday. President Trump at the NATO summit said
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: he had no interest in further talks with Iran. He
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: also said he's going to ask the Supreme Court to
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: rehear its birthright citizenship ruling. He said he'll be asking
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: for that immediately, and he said he might restore Turkey
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: to the F thirty five fighter jet program, saying that
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Turkey and China have been good to us in the state.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Those are some of the first things that have been
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: going on this morning. Plenty to discuss as we get
• 6:05

• 12:56
  Speaker 2: It's on Business Challenge.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: One hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: the first thing today.
• 13:16
  Speaker 18: What really shifted us was during the pandemic and then
• 13:20
  Speaker 18: George Floyd. It became like an exponential shock waves during
• 13:26
  Speaker 18: when people were definitely unnerved because of the pandemic, and
• 13:31
  Speaker 18: you know what, they were shut down, they were locked up.
• 13:34
  Speaker 18: They were the kids we couldn't go to school.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Rob Schneider a big hit yesterday here at Freedom Fest,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: and I want to pick up on something he brought
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: up during one of the panels, because it's a nuance
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: and I love nuance. I love taking things and then
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: pushing them to the next degree somewhere in and along
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the line. So Rob picked up on something because the
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: question and came up as had Freedom Fest gone Hollywood?
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Because Freedom Fest for the long time, and I feel
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: for the Scousons who put this event together here by
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: the way, brought to you by your friends at the
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Heritage Foundation, a group that's gone through a little of
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: what Freedom Fest is going through right now is you know,
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: the longtime members are out there saying, well, what's all
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: this Hollywood stuff? We never used to have Hollywood people here?
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Is we're going Hollywood here. It's a sellout. And it's
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: the difficulty of creating a movement. A movement requires you
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: opt in. It's what Patrick Henry at Saint John's Church
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: was speaking to. If the movement is pro liberty, we
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: should all be able to get behind it. But the
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: hard thing, as I said earlier in the program, and
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: there was a punchline I invented on the fly yesterday.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: The trouble with libertarians is they're anarchists, and anarchists it's
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: a little tough to get into a coalition. It's just
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: I want no rules. Well can we get together on that? Well,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: that sounds like rules to me. But being pro liberty
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: can be a movement. And here's why I want to
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: pick up on that real quick. And we can get
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: back into Grand Platner and the bombings in Iran and
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: who's in charge in Iran, which is still to me
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: the bigger story even though nobody's talking about it. All
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: of that, but this is an essential bit that Rob
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Schneider said yesterday, and we can go back into the
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Hollywood stuff. But queried about that, Rob Schneider said to
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: a panel and Matt Kippie, Rob, we're hopefully going to
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: have them all come and join us yesterday, but we
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: just got there in time, some of these panels yesterday,
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: after twenty eight hours in airport waiting rooms. He said that,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: picking up on Andrew Breitbart's point that politics is downstream
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: from culture, his point was, let's take it a step further.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Culture is downstream from entertainment. And I'm not sure you know.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: I heard it, and I'm like, oh, that makes a
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: little bit of sense. I don't want to play with it,
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: because entertainment generally is a mirror. I believe entertainment is
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: a mirror to culture and what Rob may have identified
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: as one of the flaws in our system right now
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: and one of the flaws in humanity. We've watched and
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: we've chronicled how this cycle happens, back and forth, back
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: and forth, back and forth, liberty, prosperity, apathy, tyranny, and
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: with more in between. But generally that's the cycle. And
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: and to me, entertainment has always been a mirror. Whether
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: it's Shakespeare or Plato or Popeye, the sailor Man, it's
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: it's a mirror to what's happening right now. The dangerous ones,
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: the problematic ones, are the ones who think, well, I'm
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: a I'm an opinion maker, and that it happens, It
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: works for a little while. So if you're just looking
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: for a momentary flash in the pan, trying to be
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: an opinion maker can score you some points, make you
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: a little scratch on the side, which is what we're
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: all trying to do, just trying to, you know, buy
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: some salami and or hide the salami. In the case
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: of Graham Platner. Yes, the bell came along and it
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: made it through TSA a text message. When are you
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: going to tell us the TSA story in a little bit?
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Let we finished the Rob Schneider story here. So he's
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: talking about how, yes, politics is downstream from culture, but
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: culture is downstream from entertainment, and that, to me is
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: part of the problem we're having, is that we're looking
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: for entertainment to tell us what our culture should be,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: rather than just being a mirror of it. So you
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: see all these folks like Rob Schneider and Dean Kine
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: and Adam Carolla and these folks who have stepped out,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: and Angels Studios came up as one of the largest
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: independent film houses in the world. But Schneider is doing
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: independent stuff. He's out there promoting his network of folks,
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Free the People, Matt Kibbi and all that working on
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: creating entertainment that isn't pitching an agenda, because it's what
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: has left people not I need to go to the movies.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Young Washington beat Supergirl at the box office. I mean,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: you'll go figure, Young Washington should beat Supergirl at the
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: box office. He should beat Superman at the box office.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: And Dean Kane was the one who even said, sure,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: George Washington was more Superman than I was, because they
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: weren't relying on entertainment to tell them what culture was.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: But entertainment is so prevalent as an industry, with the
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: YouTube and streaming services like Netflix and Amazon, and obviously
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: the cockroaches of modern media radio, it is easy to
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: misplace the order. But we really can only be a
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: mirror to you, and if we're trying to be anything
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: else but that, we're going to fail. It's why so
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: few people watch the evening news anymore. It's not because
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: we have too many choices, but all those choices are
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: chasing the same idea that they are somehow going to
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: make your opinion for you, and sos they're like, we'll
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: screw that. Do you like being told what to do?
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Think about the last time you were called into your
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: supervisor's office and uprated for not fulfilling whatever goal they
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: insist that you needed to fulfill. We didn't like it.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Nobody likes being told what to do. Think about your
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: acrimonious relations with your parents. Even if you love your
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: parents like I love my parents, there are moments when
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: they tell you what you can and can't do. You're like, ah,
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: who are you telling me what I can and can't do?
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: So this is why we have grown so apathetic towards
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: our media. So Rob's talking about trying to create media
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: that is uplifting and telling the truth and these things,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: and that is important, but don't misplace it. We are
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: still looking at culture. It's like I was saying to
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Joel earlier, I don't want to make America great again
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: because that implies that America is a thing. America is
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: conceptually a whole bunch of people who want to live
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: free and create a government that punishes anyone who tries
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: to violate my freedoms. I want the American people to
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: be great. I want the American life to be great.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: And sloganeering leaves us in a place where, like in
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: media sitcom, you know how many people misunderstood Archie Bunker
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: or what his role was in the storytelling. It would
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: like it would be like somebody saying, you know, I
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: really am a big fan of Lady Macbeth. I think
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: she was a hero.
• 22:02

  Speaker 19: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 19: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:16
  Speaker 19: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:20
  Speaker 19: That's what you should use. But there are exceptions to
• 23:23
  Speaker 19: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
• 23:26
  Speaker 19: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
• 23:29
  Speaker 19: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
• 23:31
  Speaker 19: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
• 23:35
  Speaker 19: the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
• 23:38
  Speaker 19: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
• 23:41
  Speaker 19: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
• 23:44
  Speaker 19: your fuel choices around, say every third tank full, you
• 23:47
  Speaker 19: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
• 23:50
  Speaker 19: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
• 23:53

• 28:34
  Speaker 2: be dangerous, fired up and wired up this morning, and
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: always an issue when we're at these things we're at
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: where we're out of our normal time zone. And I
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: always like the fact that's because we're all over the
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: place now, whether it's San Bernardino on k MET or
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: KFA R and Fairbanks. It's always in my head that
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: your world is evolving just a slight bit differently than
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: anyone on the Eastern seaboard because in many cases East
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Coast and the Mid Atlantic, we're getting the day started,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: but you're trying to do cleanup time there. So it's
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: a good reminder when we come to places like Lost

• 29:56
  Speaker 2: again in court winning battles on behalf of the Second,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: which we need to do unfortunately, but it's the reason
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: we have a judicial system in many cases is to
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: make sure we have a place to go and defend
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: our rights because people are going to try and usurp them.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: It's just nature, because there are people who just don't
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: want you to be able to do what you want to.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: Go to a planning commission meeting, Go to a homeowner's
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: association meeting. You love democracy so much you've been gasled
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: into the idea that pure democracy is pure nirvana. Go
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: to a planning commission meeting, or better yet, try to
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: start a business that your neighbors don't want you to
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: start in your neighborhood, even though there's no law against
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: what you want to do at your shop. Go try
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: to start a side job fixing plumbing or doing handyman stuff.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: There's one for you. Try to start a handyman business
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: from your house. See how long it is before somebody's
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: in front of the planning commission in your city.
• 31:03
  Speaker 8: Saying, yeah, we hear the undersigned. Uh say that as
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: voters who voted for your sorry asses in the last
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: city council election wants you to stop this guy from
• 31:13
  Speaker 8: He's got two fans in his driveway and they all
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: have his face on the side of it, and oh
• 31:17
  Speaker 8: my god, it's true.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, you think democracy is a great idea, wait
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: till somebody uses it against you. And you'll say, well,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: hold it, there's got to be more here than just
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: can I get you know, a bunch of people together
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: and march on the bassteal because we all want what
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: we want. It's a human conceit. It's it's not a weakness,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: but it's a thing you have to understand. Here's a
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: text message from the last segment. It's like this, Mary
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: writes into four three four eight eight two four two
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: one seven. She says, come on, Joe, Lady macbeth was
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: just trying to make Scotland great again. This is what
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: it was picked up on. We were talking about Rob
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Schneider's commentary that yes, politics is downstream from culture, but
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: culture is downstream from media entertainment. And that's wrong, that's
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: a misplacement because true and true theater, entertainment, even news
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: is a mirror. It is not it is not the conductor.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: It is the mirror. And if we're waiting for the
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: media to tell us what kind of people we need
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: to be, we got a problem. And I think that
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: is a lot of what the problem is that we're
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: we have been abandoned because politics has made us forget
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: who we are. All we don't want to be told
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: what church to go to. Yeah, but we forgot to
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: keep the part where you probably should. You know. That's
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: the thing that we forget is that, sure, you have
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: the freedom to choose a religion, but you probably should
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: have one. That's the that's the point. But the fired
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: up bit I've discovered here as trying to chronicle the
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: events of Freedom Fest for you. At three point thirty
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: nine in the morning local time, Freedom Fest and all
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: their events are being conducted on a regular business clock.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: You know. The events begin at eight am local time,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: go intil eleven pm local time. Well, you know what,
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: I'm waking up at eleven thirty pm local time to
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: get prepared for the Eastern seaboard kickoff at five Eastern
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: time of this program. And I've discovered this It's cold
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: brew concentrate. My wife picked up some of it at
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Trader Joe's. We don't do the we don't do the
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: ca cup stuff because they provided it in the hotel
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: room and it was very nice them, but she bought
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: this bottle. It's it's it's cold brew coffee, which I
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: like the way they do it. It keeps a lot
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: of the flavor in the coffee. But its coldbrew coffee. Concentrate. Yeah,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: you know the old joke. Why it was the radio
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: guy staring at the bottle of coffee because it said concentrate.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: So I've been I've been not necessarily following the instructions
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: when it comes to how I'm supposed to reconstitute this
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: coffee mixture.
• 34:30
  Speaker 17: Uh.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: There it's a little strom, But holy cow, this is
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: rocket fuel. It reminds me of the time I started
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: drinking tea during COVID because it was just easier to
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: fire up a you know, a cup of tea than
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: to make a whole pot of coffee and have it
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: sit there for four hours. Uh so Uh, the first
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: time I had caffeinated tea, I was like, whoa, where
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: did all this caffeine come from? But this, oh my gosh,
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: this is rocket fuel. Because I am truly living under
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: the programming banner of fake it till you make it.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: This morning, we hit the rack about two hours before
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: I had to get up, uh and start preparing for
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: today's show. And come on, yes, I actually do prepare
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: for this, but we do like to hear what you
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: have prepared for us. At four three, four eight eight
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: two four two seven good morning. Are on the air
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: with Joe. First thing this morning. Who's this?
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: Hey?
• 35:25
  Speaker 23: This is Moscow, Bob, Hey, Bob. Quick question for you. Okay,
• 35:32
  Speaker 23: with like Blasi Ford and all these people that have
• 35:37
  Speaker 23: come out, these women and men that come out with
• 35:40
  Speaker 23: these ascertations and accusations about all they rate me or
• 35:45
  Speaker 23: they did this or they did that. Uh huh, maybe
• 35:50
  Speaker 23: there should be a law or if someone makes a
• 35:52
  Speaker 23: claim like that, like Christine Blaze for all the money
• 35:56
  Speaker 23: that was spent during the Comfort Nation shariance and afterwards,
• 36:03
  Speaker 23: why don't they pass a lot of if there's an
• 36:05
  Speaker 23: accusation that a woman or a man makes public, that
• 36:11
  Speaker 23: it's automatically investigated as a crime.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: All right, Well, you know I think it is. I'd
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: have to check with some of my law enforcement. Is
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: is the guy at the Western District of Virginia still
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: listening in the morning. I don't want to name names
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: or you know, drop him, but you know I have
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: law enforcement people who listen to this program, So tell
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: you tell me. I do believe that if somebody makes
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: an accusation of you know, sexual assault, it is automatically investigated.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: I know Title nine for example, coming to you from
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: a fairly notable college town. We've dug into Title nine
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: and all of the things that does besides just make
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: sure there's a women's lacrosse team, including forcing forcing university
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: to act as the investigating body if there's an accusation
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: of sexual assault. And I think in that I was
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: told that you know, if somebody does go after an
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: elected official or a public official with an accusation of
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: sexual assault, that it does immediately fall into the hands
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: of law enforcement. But I'm not sure you know, I
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: follow with why you say it needs to do that
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: or you think it isn't.
• 37:25
  Speaker 23: Bob Well, the question I have is, like Christine blazingbaugh
• 37:31
  Speaker 23: Ford and some of these other accusations, both women and men,
• 37:34
  Speaker 23: that have brought forth, my question is, Okay, if there's
• 37:39
  Speaker 23: supposedly the investigation done, then how come the results are
• 37:44
  Speaker 23: not made public, that the person was found absolutely innocent
• 37:49
  Speaker 23: and all that.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: I see what you're saying, Well, in classic look at well, yeah,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: do I have to look at Epstein? Really?
• 37:59
  Speaker 22: Oh my guys, can you believe with all the recent
• 38:03
  Speaker 22: violent protests, looting and destruction, some areas are considering either
• 38:08
  Speaker 22: defunding or abolishing the police at a time when America's
• 38:12
  Speaker 22: neighborhoods need the protection of police the most. Some elected
• 38:16
  Speaker 22: officials would rather create more chaos by playing politics. If
• 38:20

• 39:08
  Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi'm
• 39:13
  Speaker 10: doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
• 39:19
  Speaker 10: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
• 39:24
  Speaker 10: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
• 39:28
  Speaker 10: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
• 39:32
  Speaker 10: Clinic found that Kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
• 39:37
  Speaker 10: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
• 39:43
  Speaker 10: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
• 39:46
  Speaker 10: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy

  Speaker 25: Hibo za and it's always a boy growing up on
• 41:02
  Speaker 25: a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals. I'm
• 41:05
  Speaker 25: not only in all of their beauty and kindness, but
• 41:07
  Speaker 25: also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds
• 41:09
  Speaker 25: who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who
• 41:13
  Speaker 25: work hard to provide for their young, or penguins who
• 41:16
  Speaker 25: travel up to five hundred miles to secure food for
• 41:18
  Speaker 25: their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them
• 41:21

• 41:24
  Speaker 25: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
• 41:27
  Speaker 25: the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets at home,
• 41:30
  Speaker 25: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life
• 41:33
  Speaker 25: saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports.
• 41:36
  Speaker 25: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
• 41:39

  Speaker 2: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: You know how we roll. We will tell you what
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: went on last night. I will give you my analysis
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: of it's born of New York City public schools and
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: the good old days of bankruptcy back when, back when
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: Democrat policies actually had repercussions. There and Bob in Moscow,
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: I was talking about repercussions and the classic media, and
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: this goes back newspapers, and I think it's as cultural
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: as anything. But on the subject of what Rob Schneider
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: was saying yesterday here at Freedom Fest, is is culture
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: downstream from media? And I think it is now and
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: that's wrong. We've become so addicted to media. Instead of
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: the media reflecting what's going on in the culture, the
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: media is trying to make the culture. And I think
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: there's a pushback to that. But you were talking about
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: culpability of the accusers, I presume even in the Grand
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: Platiner case. But you mentioned Epstein. Epstein's an epithet. Now
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: it's the scarlet letter if and I've searched. I've searched
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: the released database. There are two instances where the name
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: Joe Thomas comes up. Neither of them are me. But
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: if somebody wanted the Talk media network to cancel this show,
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: they could go on a campaign. We just watched it
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: happen in our flagship city Stanton. This guy Chris who's
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: decided he wants to I don't know, get an MS
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: NOW show or something. He's decided that his crusade was
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: to get one of my buddies who does a local
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: conservative show. Rob Shilling fired by saying, look, the University
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: of Virginia sponsors there's radio station. There's radio station has
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: this right wing bag of guy on it, and therefore UVA,
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: you know, And and it's that guilt by association stuff.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: You know, you had a friend named Jeff Epstein who
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: is a different guy, but oh, we can't have you anymore.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: We're gonna have to lose your job. It's it's this
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: cancel culture that I think you're talking about, right, Bob, is.
• 46:40
  Speaker 23: Where's the protection for like Brett Kavanaugh, all these innocent
• 46:44
  Speaker 23: men that have.
• 46:45
  Speaker 28: Their reputations ruined, But there's never any criminal right from
• 46:53
  Speaker 28: the woman or man making the accusation, right not held accountable.
• 46:57
  Speaker 28: So in this world, you can, right now in the
• 47:00
  Speaker 28: United States, you can make any claim you want against
• 47:04
  Speaker 28: any person in the news, and it can be completely false,
• 47:09
  Speaker 28: but you can ruin their whole life, their family, cause
• 47:12
  Speaker 28: problem and there's no repercussion.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I think there is, and I think this Supreme
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: Court specifically has started to push on the New York
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: Times ruling that claims, you know that if you're a
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: public figure, the standard for defamation is higher. Doesn't mean
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: it doesn't exist. And that's what's again, because we get
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: sloppy and lazy with things. We say, well, if it's
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: a higher bar for a public official, then the bar
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: doesn't exist. Well, it does exist, especially when you know
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: a political position or a governmental position or representative position,
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: because corruption is perhaps the most important crime to investigate
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: and to adjudicate fairly, openly, and thoroughly, because we want
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: to make sure that if we're going to have a
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: representative republic and file this under not a flaw but
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: a feature. If you want a free society to lose
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: faith in its governance, start to convince them that people
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: are making decisions not in their best interest. Because if
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: you have political decisions, first off, understand, US government since
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: the Civil War has been collecting like a little freaking squirrel,
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: storing its nuts for winter, packing its little empty log
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: full of powers that it should not have. It has
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: no constitutional bearing to have. And then continues to do
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: so by bribery, basically by saying, listen, look the other way,
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: and we'll give you some money. Do what we tell you,
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: or we'll take away some money. And by doing that,
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: they've first and foremost bankrupted the nation. But they've created
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: a position where their corruptibility in these government offices is
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: so important. And it's one of the things here at
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: freedom fests. You know, very libertarian leaning, but there's a
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: lot of conservative groups here here, like, listen, you need
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: to have a government to secure these rights. You've heard
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: that expression Declaration of Independence. You may have heard about
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: a big celebration a couple of days ago. To secure
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: these rights. Governments are instituted amongst men, deriving the just
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: powers from the governed. And this is why, you know,
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: as people say, well, how can you be live from
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: Freedom Fest sponsored by the Heritage Foundation there, I had
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: a guy tell me the Heritage Foundation is the polar
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: opposite of the Freedom Fest organization. No, it's not. It's
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: a conservative organization trying to conserve a way of life.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: And if you think conservative means anything else, and believe me,
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: there are people who run in the conservative movement that
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: think it is something else you're wrong. Sorry, I don't
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: mean to be black and white about it, but you're wrong.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: And to conserve a free society whose job it is
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: to protect your to secure your liberties, you have to
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: have that government who will adjudicate instances where somebody can
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: ruin somebody through an accusation and there's no repercussion of
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: equal variety when those accusations come to fore. A great
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: example ripped from my childhood, my misspent ut Jordan Belfort.
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: Jordan Belfort certainly did plenty of things wrong. It's certainly
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: not a more. You know, if you're looking at Martin
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: Scorsese films as documentaries, that's not exactly how the mob
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: in New York worked. It's fanciful, it's theater. It's a
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: mirror of something that was really going on. It's not
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: to say, you know what Puso wrote about in The Godfather,
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: it wasn't real. But Martin Scorsese's making a film he
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: wants people to go see it. A Wolf of Wall Street.
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: Same thing. But there are also a bunch of companies.
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: It's not a majority, but there are a bunch of
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: companies that started as penny stock companies that Jordan Belfort
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: helped them become actual going concerns. So it's not an
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: all or nothing thing. But the more power that gets
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: metastasized into these government offices, the more people will look
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: to tear down the people and corrupt the people who
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: are holding those offices. So that's the first part of it. Yes,
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: you need to have recompense, but it's the oldest trick
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: in the book in terms of mass media and news.
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: The accusation goes on the front page. The exoneration is
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: published on page twenty two, next to the crossword puzzle.
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: I mean that's as old as William Randolph Hurst. Because
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: we as a culture want to build up people and
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: then tear them down when they fail us. And the
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: failing is that we keep looking to other people to
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: do things for us. Don't put yourself in that position
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: of being disappointed by somebody. Let's stop asking them to
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: do things for us. The less we do of that,
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: the less we're going to be disappointed. You know. It's true.
• 52:52
  Speaker 21: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
• 52:55
  Speaker 21: to think about what matters most when it comes to
• 52:57
  Speaker 21: our spending our healthcare. This is why so oh many
• 53:00
  Speaker 21: people are joining meta share right now. Metashare is a
• 53:04
  Speaker 21: trusted way to save up to fifty percent on your
• 53:07
  Speaker 21: monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred thousand people have
• 53:10
  Speaker 21: already made the switch. It's pretty obvious why too, especially
• 53:14
  Speaker 21: now during this challenging season with health care costs and
• 53:17
  Speaker 21: out of pocket expenses going up. Metas Share can save
• 53:20
  Speaker 21: you a lot of money. The typical family saves five
• 53:23
  Speaker 21: hundred dollars a month. Meda share works too. It's been
• 53:26
  Speaker 21: around for thirty years. Members have shared more than five
• 53:29
  Speaker 21: billion dollars of each other's bills. There are different options
• 53:32
  Speaker 21: to choose from to fit your budget. I'll give you
• 53:34
  Speaker 21: the number here in a second, and if you call,
• 53:36
  Speaker 21: you can get a price within two minutes. Maybe now
• 53:39
  Speaker 21: it's the perfect time to make the switch and start saving.
• 53:42
  Speaker 21: Here you go call eight five five share forty. That's
• 53:45
  Speaker 21: eight five five shre forty. Eight five five share forty.
• 53:56
  Speaker 21: There works too. It's been around for thirty years. Members
• 53:58
  Speaker 21: have shared more than five have billion dollars of each
• 54:01
  Speaker 21: other's bills. There are different options to choose from to
• 54:04
  Speaker 21: fit your budget. I'll give you the number here in
• 54:06
  Speaker 21: a second, and if you call, you can get a
• 54:08
  Speaker 21: price within two minutes. Maybe now is the perfect time
• 54:11
  Speaker 21: to make the switch and start saving. Here you go
• 54:14
  Speaker 21: call eight five five share forty. That's eight five five
• 54:17
  Speaker 21: s H A R E forty eight five five share
• 54:21
  Speaker 21: forty
