  Speaker 1: The story starts with you. Don't have to like me.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: That's up to you. I've never asked, ever once in
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: my career to be liked. Some people do and some
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: people don't.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Some people think this, and some people think that I
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: never asked. I always believed that certainly it's nice to
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: be liked. I'm not trying to get people not to
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: like me. But the job matters, and to do the
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: job right means I'm always sharing with you where I'm
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: at and why I'm at that place. The only way
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: it works is if I have built the relationship with
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: you about the things that I'm experiencing, seeing saying why
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: I'm saying it and then let the chips fall where
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: they may my conversations about Trump, I do not care
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: at all if I am ND.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: That is true.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Of politicians, it's true of civic leaders, it's true of
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: other radio hosts, it's true of everyone.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: To do the job right. In my view, you must do.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: The job right and let the chips fall where they may.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: So far, the chips have fallen very very well. All
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the credit in the world to Kendall and Casey as
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: they have been following up on this story about this
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: AI porn video and the allegations against Michael Beckwith. I
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: think the story is nutty, and you've heard me state
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: on the air, I am not a beck With guy.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I think that his nine months in office have been
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: marred by madness and insanity. I think his commentaries here
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: have been dismissive and downright rude and unnecessarily so. And
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I think that the tweet of the post on x
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: about Haitian refugees, which he then deleted and somehow it
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: was a stafford deleted, I said, that's it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: His political career is over. When I was at the event.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: The Who's Your Leadership Summit for America or Who's Your
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Leadership for America put out by Senator Jim Banks.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I had a couple of people back with fans, you
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: really need to go talk to him.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: I don't think you understand, he explained himself, you don't
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: really understand. I had flashbacks to Indie Star columnist Tim
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Swearin's sitting down with me over a meal saying Tony,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: you just don't get it. Tony, you just don't understand.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: I walked out of that meal. If we disagree, we disagree.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: When you say to me, you just don't get it,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: it's elitism nonsense. It's elitism nonsense.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Ken On Casey had the woman on yesterday.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Who made the claim that she absolutely positively saw this video,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: this video that is allegedly AI generated of a member
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: of the General's Assembly's wife dancing topless. Honestly, of all
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: the things you're going to create with AI, that one's interesting.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Interesting.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: It is such an odd thing that I think that
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: people do say yeah, I probably believe that happened, because
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, who makes that up. The story was broken
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: by Tom Lobianco, and I asked the question, where's the video,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: where's the video?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Where is this thing? For anything?
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: I think about Micah beckwe you're going to make this
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: allegation about him.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: You can't keep anything silent so far.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: The only thing I know that somehow you've been able
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: to keep mystery is who killed JFK? And for way
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: too long, what the hell happened in Delphi? Which are
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: we still not fully addressing the level of cluster that
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: investigation was. You should go back and listen to their
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: reporting of the NWBC reporter Donny Burgess and others.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: And what we did here WBC. I mean, it's just insane.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: You're telling me a video exists and people saw it,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: and nobody has it, and no one can find it
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: and no one sends anyone a copy.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: I don't believe it. And that's been on my mind.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I said it, it's been on my mind.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: And I heard what Aaron Sheridan said yesterday on Kendall
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and Casey, and you should go and listen to it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: At WIBC dot.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Com, I was walking through the office and I heard
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: some employees sitting around laughing and joking. It was a
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: nice atmosphere, so I paused and said, what's so funny?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: What's everyone laughing about? They were like, oh my gosh,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: check this out. They handed me a phone. I had
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: no idea what I was getting ready to see. It
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: was obviously was fake, but it was a video of
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Haggard's wife, Brooke performing at the Hoosier Idol and she
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: was topless.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: My first reaction was grown men shared that with you.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: It took that as a little bit odd. But neither
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: here nor there. The whole thing is there is this
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: video real. I texted Micah beckwith and I said, you
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: don't have to like me, that's up to you. I
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: started with that, but I have stated publicly that this
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: AI video story is no proof. It's offensive to put
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: the story out with no proof. Then comes Aaron's statement,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Lieutenant Governor, does the video exist? Did you see it?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Did your staff laugh about it? As was reported? I
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: don't care if he likes me.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I want to answer to the question. You should be
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: clear that I never said we were off the record.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: But I asked the Lieutenant Governor this morning if I
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: could share this on air, to which he responded yes,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: via text, I share it now with you.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: He responded.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: I don't like you. You're incredibly arrogant, and I think
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: you just like to hear the sound of your own voice. Well,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: turns out WIBC likes the sound of my own voice,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: as they've offered me a new contract.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: But all that to say, I appreciate you reaching out
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and asking.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: The Lieutenant governor continues, No, the video does not exist.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I never saw it, nor did I ever laugh at
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: it or even the idea of it.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I would fire anyone immediately if that kind of crap
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: was ever happening in my office. The very first time,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: writes the Lieutenant Governor to me I even heard of
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: the alleged video was late summer when the reporter reached
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: out to me, saying he talked to Erin about this video.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: He then continued, I also made it clear to my team,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: who have.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Not seen the video his words, that if evidence does
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: come to light that anyone was involved, they will be
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: fired immediately. But to this day, I have zero evidence
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: that my office or anyone.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Outside had any participation in this.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: The Lieutenant Governor, Micah beck With continues, if there is
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: evidence out there, I have asked people to bring it forward,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: but to date there is none.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: And I'm not going to be bullied into.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Firing members of my team just because one former disgruntled
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: employee is seemingly making up false accusations, to which I asked,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: can I share my question and your response on air,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I'd like to discuss it this morning, and he responded yes.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: That is as full throat at a denial as one
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: can hear, and certainly in the light of the commentary
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: given to Kendall and Casey on their show yesterday, I
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: am interested in putting an end to this insanity. I
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: need to check with some lawyers on Monday. If all
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: goes well, I plan an offering a reward for the video,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: and I'm playing in five figures.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: This video exists or it doesn't.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Either people are trying to malign the Lieutenant governor, who
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: I don't even like.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I don't like his presentation, I don't like how he's
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: handled himself, but this is wrong.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: If he's being maligned, either we're gonna put that to
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: bed and some people are gonna look real foolish, or
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: the Lieutenant governor.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Is going to resign. Now. I do not know if
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I can actually do this. I believe I can.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: I need to check with some people legally, I need
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to actually, I think check with the station. But if
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: I can, I want it and not the things people
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: are gonna create because they're ridiculous, like oh cash, no,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: the verifiable and there's a way to figure this out.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: This is nuts and this has to get ended
