0:33
Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite sounds of the week, just
0:35
Speaker 1: sort of Joe Strekker, executive producer, formalizing the reality of
0:39
Speaker 1: Friday and a happy Friday. I Hugh Brian Thomas right here,
0:42
Speaker 1: glad to be. You got a phone, Nuber if you

Speaker 1: seven four nine fifty five hundred two three Talk found
0:48
Speaker 1: five fifty on AT and T phones today and the
0:49
Speaker 1: fifty five KRSE morning show Tech Front of a Day
0:51
Speaker 1: of Hatter. Of course we do that every Friday at
0:53
Speaker 1: six thirty. Topics today, leaked emails suggesting that ring you know,
0:56
Speaker 1: the doorbell ring ring cameras are planning on expanding the
1:00
Speaker 1: search party of surveillance not just dogs anymore, kind of
1:05
Speaker 1: a creepy one. That the embodiment of a big brother
1:08
Speaker 1: or welly in scenario those ring cameras anyway, Dave on
1:11
Speaker 1: that first topic, second topic, high tech scarecrows that's in quotes,
1:15
Speaker 1: watching your every move. Hey, we're on an orwell theme
1:17
Speaker 1: this morning. What they're really being used for? And finally,
1:20
Speaker 1: Iowa was twenty six point four. There's an update now,
1:23
Speaker 1: a warning. Update now says iPhone you got an iPhone
1:28
Speaker 1: apparently update now it's a short segment. Don't wait, we'll
1:33
Speaker 1: find the reasons why. When Dave joins the program at
1:36
Speaker 1: ZIX thirty and I'm you know, Joe Strecker, I guess
1:39
Speaker 1: must have been a reading my mind and went. I
1:41
Speaker 1: went to sleep night before last, and I was thinking,
1:44
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to George Brunneman and Keith Tennefield it
1:46
Speaker 1: for a while that Restore Wellness guys, and I thought
1:50
Speaker 1: about it when I woke up in the morning. I think,
1:52
Speaker 1: I'm anticipating Joe Strecker being off work on Monday, and
1:55
Speaker 1: I'm worried about having guests lined up on the show,
1:57
Speaker 1: which always happens when Joe. It's a little concerning the
2:00
Speaker 1: back of my mind, because of course without Joe, the
2:01
Speaker 1: show don't go at least as far as guests are concerned.
2:04
Speaker 1: So I was thinking about George and Keith and wellness
2:06
Speaker 1: because all the articles around I got these weird realities
2:10
Speaker 1: of ozembic and the GLP one and how it's impacting
2:14
Speaker 1: you know, not just our weight, the number of people
2:16
Speaker 1: taking it, but also the food supply issues. But I
2:19
Speaker 1: said it was in my mind, and I woke up
2:20
Speaker 1: Georgia Keith. I coming to work and I told me
2:22
Speaker 1: George and Keith are going to be on the program today.
2:24
Speaker 2: So good.
2:25
Speaker 1: We're going to find out where do I start insofar
2:27
Speaker 1: as your diet, maybe exercise, you know, just coming to
2:30
Speaker 1: grips with with with with the proper health and diet
2:32
Speaker 1: and exercise. They'll also offer suggestions for first steps on
2:37
Speaker 1: improving nutrition and here's my problem starting an exercise program.
2:42
Speaker 1: Someday they're gonna get me off my butt. And finally,
2:46
Speaker 1: how to have a frank conversation with your doctor. George
2:48
Speaker 1: and Keith in Studio seven five, followed by Third Generation
2:52
Speaker 1: Trucker eight oh five with Gord McGill. Gorge's written a
2:57
Speaker 1: book End of the Road in the War on Truckers,
3:01
Speaker 1: so that was rather interesting To'll be talking about why
3:05
Speaker 1: Delilah's Law is so necessary and how illegal immigration and
3:08
Speaker 1: immigration scams are wreaking havoc on our roads, blaming the
3:12
Speaker 1: Motor Carrier Act of nineteen eighty for fundamentally re arranging
3:16
Speaker 1: the economics of the trucking business, and he says, it's
3:20
Speaker 1: the underlying cause of every other problem in the trucking business.
3:24
Speaker 1: I don't even know in the Motor Carrier Act in
3:26
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty. Is that's where we're gonna have Gored on
3:28
Speaker 1: the program talking about his book, a lot of other
3:30
Speaker 1: topics for that that at eight oh five, and then
3:33
Speaker 1: of course Monday, no not, of course, well Monday we
3:35
Speaker 1: always hear from Christopher Smithman. So Joe's not going to
3:38
Speaker 1: be here. So what has Joe done for me and us?
3:41
Speaker 1: Two hours with Christopher's Smithmen and former vice mayor of
3:44
Speaker 1: the City of Cincinnati in studio, So we got a
3:46
Speaker 1: two hour smither vent. Boy, don't we have a lot
3:48
Speaker 1: of topics piled up to go over with him, including
3:51
Speaker 1: the saga going on with Police Chief Fiji Russ Neville
3:54
Speaker 1: or brother on the program yesterday talking about that every
3:57
Speaker 1: time it just keeps getting worser and worser, if I
4:00
Speaker 1: can put it that way. So police Chief Thiji I
4:03
Speaker 1: think was done wrong by the city of sin say
4:05
Speaker 1: that was certainly Russ's conclusion. And I get the impression
4:08
Speaker 1: Christopher feels the same way. Congressman Warren Davidson on the program,
4:11
Speaker 1: and I talked about the shutdown. You know, they came
4:14
Speaker 1: up with a resolution, don't fund any more ICE, don't
4:19
Speaker 1: department Department of Homeland Security, So we don't we don't
4:22
Speaker 1: add anything for ICE. But then again, Chuck Schumer did
4:25
Speaker 1: not get any reforms? Why did he shut the government down?
4:27
Speaker 1: Wasn't it all about getting some reforms at ICE dictating
4:31
Speaker 1: the terms of conditions, the parameters of what they wear
4:33
Speaker 1: and how they respond, and the judicial warrant thing, on
4:35
Speaker 1: and on and on. So what do we get? We
4:37
Speaker 1: got this too. Prong opened the government up with no
4:39
Speaker 1: funding for ICE. But remember in the background ICE had
4:44
Speaker 1: already been funded. That was not an issue. So what
4:48
Speaker 1: did Chuck you get over? Talked about that with Congressman
4:50
Speaker 1: Davidson yesterday. I guess done nothing yesterday. Chuck Schumer actually
4:56
Speaker 1: had the nerve to go on the Situation Room. See
4:58
Speaker 1: it in the Situation Room, one of the hosts, their
5:02
Speaker 1: co hosts, Pamela Brown says, quote, So this plan that
5:05
Speaker 1: just passed in the Senate does not include the reforms
5:09
Speaker 1: to immigration enforcement operations the Democrats had not only demanded,
5:14
Speaker 1: but even used as reasons to withhold their votes for
5:17
Speaker 1: DHS funding when all this began more than a month ago.
5:22
Speaker 1: Here it is what did your party actually accomplish with
5:27
Speaker 1: this shutdown? That's a great question, and he goes on
5:32
Speaker 1: this rambling thing, Well, first law, let me shure you
5:34
Speaker 1: the Republicans are hardly unified, and he goes to Republican,
5:39
Speaker 1: this Republican ask blah blah blah blah blah, Republican, Republican,
5:42
Speaker 1: this is Republicans followed, it's obviously the Republican. It's really
5:45
Speaker 1: nothing substantive. The answer the question was what did your
5:49
Speaker 1: party actually accomplish with this shutdown? So way on into
5:53
Speaker 1: his rambling and issue response to this answer, he says,
5:58
Speaker 1: so this shutdown is on their backs, Republicans, and in
6:00
Speaker 1: the future of their faburey to want to reform DHS, sorry,
6:02
Speaker 1: to reform ICE and Border Patrol, which are now doing
6:05
Speaker 1: things that pause. All we want them to do is
6:09
Speaker 1: what every police department does, use warrants. Okay, see he's
6:13
Speaker 1: back to what he wanted. Don't mask cooperate with local authorities.
6:18
Speaker 1: The American people want that. Everyone wants that, but a
6:21
Speaker 1: group of right wing Republicans who just like ICE and
6:24
Speaker 1: CBP as it is as much as well as much
6:28
Speaker 1: as we all abhor it, and that's on them. So
6:30
Speaker 1: there's ultimately your answer. Does it respond to the question
6:33
Speaker 1: what did your party actually accomplish? Hell, no, it doesn't.
6:36
Speaker 1: Just just basically a long winded reiteration of nine thousand
6:39
Speaker 1: blaming Republicans for the shutdown, and then I guess confirming
6:42
Speaker 1: that they didn't get anything. She actually followed up, well,
6:46
Speaker 1: you've heard the new DHS secretary say that there will
6:49
Speaker 1: be reforms, particularly to warrants another request. But just to
6:54
Speaker 1: follow up on my original question, look, ICE and CBP,
6:59
Speaker 1: they are all funded with billions of dollars from last
7:02
Speaker 1: year's budget bill for the next few years. Here we
7:04
Speaker 1: go again. So what did Democrats actually accomplish with this
7:08
Speaker 1: shutdown where you saw many government employees really struggle? Here
7:13
Speaker 1: we go again. Well, again, we were ready to fund
7:17
Speaker 1: the rest of DHS. It was the Republicans who blocked
7:20
Speaker 1: it over and over again. So it's on them. And
7:23
Speaker 1: let me interject, just because Chucky says that's that way
7:26
Speaker 1: it unfolded doesn't make it true. But second he said,
7:31
Speaker 1: the bottom line is what we have shown the American
7:33
Speaker 1: people is we want obvious, common sense reforms to ICE
7:37
Speaker 1: and CBP, and the Republicans don't if they want to
7:40
Speaker 1: fund it with the same kind of chaos, the horror
7:42
Speaker 1: we've seen in Minneapolis and Portland and other cities with
7:45
Speaker 1: an ICE and CBP that are lawless. It's on their
7:47
Speaker 1: back already funded. Chock, you didn't hear what she said.
7:50
Speaker 1: You don't realize the history of what led us to
7:53
Speaker 1: this perilous point in time. They're already funded. I guess
7:57
Speaker 1: the funding for the one Big Beautiful bill put it
7:59
Speaker 1: on their back way when it was passed. What was
8:02
Speaker 1: this exercise all about, Chuck enter wolf Blitzer, the other
8:06
Speaker 1: co host, what do you say to those critics who
8:10
Speaker 1: argue that both ICE and Border Patrol are already set
8:14
Speaker 1: with funding millions and millions of dollars because President Trumps
8:18
Speaker 1: so called Big Beautiful Bill that passed months ago. So
8:21
Speaker 1: Democrats just held up this legislation for what for political posturing?
8:28
Speaker 1: Is that right, Chuckie Schumer, Well, that's not fair at all.
8:37
Speaker 1: We held it up because we wanted, as I mentioned before,
8:41
Speaker 1: to reform ICE and CBP, which are lawless. The American
8:46
Speaker 1: people are totally out on our side here. Let me
8:48
Speaker 1: reach around and grab a figure out of my sphincter.
8:50
Speaker 1: I think by two to one or close to that.
8:53
Speaker 1: They you and I, folks, American people what it reformed,
8:59
Speaker 1: and that's what we are pushing for. We're not gonna
9:02
Speaker 1: fund lawless ICE and lawless CBP, and the American people
9:05
Speaker 1: are overwhelmingly on our side on that. Uh, we knew that, Chuck.
9:11
Speaker 1: We don't believe you that the American people are two
9:13
Speaker 1: to one in favor of what you want. But just
9:15
Speaker 1: scratch that part out and go back to the original question.
9:17
Speaker 1: Why did you do it for political posturing? No, we
9:20
Speaker 1: just held it up because we want the American people
9:22
Speaker 1: to know that we want ICE reform. Hey, Chuck, did
9:25
Speaker 1: you get it?
9:26
Speaker 3: No?
9:29
Speaker 1: ICE reform rather blitz are followed up. But they're already funded, right, Chuck. Well,
9:37
Speaker 1: if they put funding in from their other bills and
9:41
Speaker 1: want to keep funding a lawless ICE, a lawless CBP
9:45
Speaker 1: that creates chaos in our cities, it's on their back.
9:48
Speaker 1: We're not going to participate in that close quote. Okay,
9:54
Speaker 1: I think we can thoroughly conclude that the Democrats got
9:57
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing for the pain they put every man, woman
10:00
Speaker 1: and child through that had to deal with going without
10:02
Speaker 1: a paycheck. The line you stood at. It was a
10:05
Speaker 1: waste of time for the Democrats. Your suffering didn't result
10:08
Speaker 1: in getting them getting what they wanted. This was a
10:12
Speaker 1: completely needless exercise. Welcome to your elected officials. I keep going.
10:19
Speaker 1: It's little things like this that always confirm my personal
10:24
Speaker 1: belief system that we should never ever ever put our
10:27
Speaker 1: faith in anything the government does. It is not a lifeline.
10:32
Speaker 1: Fifty eight vity five KRCD talk stations. Stick around more
10:35
Speaker 1: to talk about, no plenty to talk about. Plus your
10:39
Speaker 1: phone calls if we want to call it that I'd
10:40
Speaker 1: love to hear from me. Be right back to night
10:42
Speaker 1: low with the cold front coming in and a big
10:44
Speaker 1: cool down on Easter Sunday, but at least dry. We'll
10:47
Speaker 1: have a high of fifty four. Right now it's seventy
10:50
Speaker 1: degrees vifty five KRCD talk station.
10:51
Speaker 2: Donald J.
10:52
Speaker 1: Trump, Can I improve this message?
10:54
Speaker 4: There you go?
10:56
Speaker 1: Good morning paul Ette. We should get text message from her.
11:02
Speaker 1: When it was Joe Biden saying it, I got one
11:04
Speaker 1: every morning, FJB. It's changed since then. Five one, three, seven,
11:17
Speaker 1: two three talk pound fight fifty on AT and T phones.
11:19
Speaker 1: Give me called, you got something you want to talk about?
11:22
Speaker 5: Uh?
11:22
Speaker 1: Hey, this is one kind of bothered me. Iran. We
11:26
Speaker 1: blew up their biggest bridge or tallest bridge, I should say.
11:28
Speaker 1: Apparently it was a you know, used for military purposes.
11:31
Speaker 1: So Donald Trump, she releases the video of US blowing
11:33
Speaker 1: up their tallest bridge, the b one Highway bridge, described
11:38
Speaker 1: as a key link between Iran's capital and the western
11:40
Speaker 1: city of Karaj, lifeline for some of the troop movements
11:45
Speaker 1: or you know, military movements, whatever the case may be.
11:47
Speaker 1: So that gets blown up and get reports of Iran
11:49
Speaker 1: beefing up its defenses, even recruiting children to take a
11:53
Speaker 1: role in the war. A lot of discussion about where
11:55
Speaker 1: they're you're focusing their efforts and the invasion of carg
11:58
Speaker 1: Island for example, and all the problem and issues that
12:00
Speaker 1: might be associated with that, but pivoting over to other
12:03
Speaker 1: issues related to the war more and more of our
12:04
Speaker 1: quote unquote allies. It's difficult to use that word of
12:07
Speaker 1: late denying the United States access to airspace I think
12:12
Speaker 1: was Spain the other day. We actually have military bases
12:15
Speaker 1: there and they said, no, you can't use your bases
12:18
Speaker 1: to fly war related missions in and out of Spain.
12:24
Speaker 1: Oh okay, now we have Australia denying airspace to the
12:28
Speaker 1: United States as well rejecting the request of the United
12:31
Speaker 1: States military for overflights through Australian airspace, and they apparently
12:35
Speaker 1: have been doing this since the start of the conflict.
12:39
Speaker 1: According to Colonel Michael Bauer, he's with the Defense Ministry Australia.
12:45
Speaker 1: There have been indeed requests, but they were refused from
12:47
Speaker 1: the outset. So Australia has maintained neutrality. Apparently, like Switzerland,
12:51
Speaker 1: since been in neutral countries since nineteen fifty five. It
12:54
Speaker 1: is surrounded geographically by fellow NATO states, which I guess
12:57
Speaker 1: gives them some measure of comfort. But I thought to
13:01
Speaker 1: myself when I first started with Spain and now I'm
13:02
Speaker 1: reading about Australia, how about we just fly through anyway?
13:08
Speaker 1: Can someone explain to me what the the sort of
13:14
Speaker 1: reprisal might be the aftermath retaliation? I mean, I'm sure
13:17
Speaker 1: that a strong, harsh letter might be sent. Someone might,
13:20
Speaker 1: you know, call on the UN the United States is
13:22
Speaker 1: violating our airspace and okay, what are you gonna do
13:25
Speaker 1: about it? Are you supposed to be friends with US?
13:28
Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, that flight that was flying
13:30
Speaker 1: in and out of that base in Spain or whatever. No,
13:33
Speaker 1: that wasn't related to the war. That was something else.
13:35
Speaker 1: You've been letting us fly in and out of that
13:36
Speaker 1: airbase now since it's been there, So it was one
13:39
Speaker 1: of those flights. It wasn't one related. I know, you
13:41
Speaker 1: can probably follow the military aircraft going over to Ron
13:45
Speaker 1: and unleashing a payload and flying back or something. But
13:48
Speaker 1: why would we you know, just even just why wouldn't
13:52
Speaker 1: we just ignore it? Listen, the Chinese are apparently invading
13:58
Speaker 1: our airspace. We saw that under the Biden Ministra, remember
14:00
Speaker 1: with the balloon. Oh it's just a party balloon. No, actually,
14:03
Speaker 1: a head tracking information was gathering information all across the
14:06
Speaker 1: United States, and we used to do you two flyovers
14:09
Speaker 1: back in the Cold War Francis Gary Powerman when he
14:13
Speaker 1: got shot down. That was a bit of a problem,
14:14
Speaker 1: wasn't it. Yeah, we used invaded airspace all the time.
14:16
Speaker 1: People invade airspace. The world's an imperfect place. Screws fallout,
14:20
Speaker 1: what's wrong with that now? Of course, when you fly
14:23
Speaker 1: over a sworn enemy like the Soviet Union, you run
14:27
Speaker 1: the risk of your plane getting shot down. It was
14:29
Speaker 1: a safe thing for the Chinese to do when they
14:31
Speaker 1: flew the air balloon over our country. You know, Joe
14:33
Speaker 1: Biden waited until it got over the ocean. So I
14:36
Speaker 1: guess they got what they wanted, and we let them
14:38
Speaker 1: get what they wanted. To be sort of like the
14:40
Speaker 1: Soviets looking at Francis Gary Powers flying over in the
14:43
Speaker 1: YouTube and going oh look and not doing anything about it.
14:48
Speaker 1: But I don't know what repercussions might follow. But if
14:52
Speaker 1: we just went ahead and did it anyway, I think
14:56
Speaker 1: that'll be kind of a cool thing.
14:59
Speaker 2: My view.
14:59
Speaker 1: Anyway, so Iran increasing its military preparations, so I alluded
15:04
Speaker 1: to that to a moment ago, because more and more
15:06
Speaker 1: it looks like truth. Maybe on the ground, I certainly
15:09
Speaker 1: don't want to see that. Strengthening its defenses around the
15:13
Speaker 1: key sites, most notably that carg Island facility, where it's
15:16
Speaker 1: widely reported there are tunnels, there are mines, there are
15:19
Speaker 1: IEDs been placed all over the place. Tehran mobilizing its
15:23
Speaker 1: population similar to that they did with the war with Iraq,
15:26
Speaker 1: recruiting millions of Iranians, including children. It's been widely reported.
15:31
Speaker 1: I saw Wall Street Journal article on this this morning,
15:33
Speaker 1: going into detail. Iran beefs up defenses recruits children as
15:37
Speaker 1: it prepares for ground war. They've done this before military analysts,
15:41
Speaker 1: just so you have an idea what the our American
15:44
Speaker 1: troops and these reelers are facing when they might hit
15:46
Speaker 1: the ground with the boots. New Lines Institute for Strategy
15:49
Speaker 1: and Polichy in Washington says the Iranians have about one
15:52
Speaker 1: million active and reserved troops, a subset of which is
15:57
Speaker 1: about one hundred and ninety thousand revel lutionary Guard described
16:01
Speaker 1: as motivated fighters. Those are the ones that are actually trained.
16:03
Speaker 1: They acknowledge that the bulk of the country's forces are
16:06
Speaker 1: in fact untrained, equipped with inadequate arms that go back
16:10
Speaker 1: decades in terms of how old they are, but notably
16:14
Speaker 1: and this is something that Daniel Davis Deep Dive pointed out.
16:16
Speaker 1: Daniel Davis said, Listen, you got to remember the terrain there.
16:18
Speaker 1: You're talking about a territory two point four times the
16:22
Speaker 1: size of Texas, complete with rugged mountainous terrain. And that's
16:28
Speaker 1: where one of the benefits of these perhaps comparatively untrained
16:31
Speaker 1: troops might have. They know the mountainous terrain, they have
16:34
Speaker 1: worked with the regional militias in the area, so they
16:37
Speaker 1: have a much better lay of the land than the
16:40
Speaker 1: United States and Israelis do. And can you imagine how
16:44
Speaker 1: far and wide the troop disbursement might be given the
16:46
Speaker 1: numbers of troops that we actually have over their relative
16:49
Speaker 1: to the acknowledgeably acknowledged, comparatively less trained Iranians. So it
16:57
Speaker 1: just points out that it looks like Iran is red,
17:00
Speaker 1: and some analysts have decided this is probably what's going
17:03
Speaker 1: to happen. The remaining the leaders of what is left
17:05
Speaker 1: of the regime are in desperation mode, and rather than
17:08
Speaker 1: let the Great Satan come over the hill and take
17:10
Speaker 1: them over and capitulate to that happen, they'll fight to
17:14
Speaker 1: the death, fight to the death with a hope that
17:23
Speaker 1: it will unleash a lot of American bloodshed. They want
17:26
Speaker 1: to make this as painful as possible, at least according
17:29
Speaker 1: to the analysts that I've been reading about this morning.
17:32
Speaker 1: So you prepared for the long haul, long slog, You
17:35
Speaker 1: prepare for a lot of American death that looks like
17:37
Speaker 1: it may be on the horizon. And I can only
17:39
Speaker 1: pray to God as we enter Easter weekend, that we
17:41
Speaker 1: get this thing resolved, hopefully to our satisfaction, because We've
17:47
Speaker 1: been making terrific progress over the years in the Middle East,
17:49
Speaker 1: terrific progress.
17:50
Speaker 2: I think.
17:52
Speaker 1: There's another analysis of that, you know, it's if you
17:57
Speaker 1: look at what's happened over the past couple of decades.
17:59
Speaker 1: We all, in spite of the troubles that we felt
18:02
Speaker 1: we were facing at the time, in spite of the
18:05
Speaker 1: all the nose and the naysayers, and we shouldn't be
18:08
Speaker 1: doing this, and the folks who want to capitulate, like
18:10
Speaker 1: Barack Obama handing over palettes of cash to the Iranians
18:13
Speaker 1: in an effort to buy them off, with them just
18:15
Speaker 1: continuing to fund all the proxy wars through their terrorist
18:18
Speaker 1: organizations and their networks. You know, that didn't work, and
18:23
Speaker 1: the problem just only entrance to the Iranians. Further So,
18:25
Speaker 1: here we are at a moment in time where, yes,
18:27
Speaker 1: this most difficult and challenging mission may ultimately serve the
18:31
Speaker 1: interests of the world long term. Can we suck it
18:34
Speaker 1: up and deal with it and get the other countries
18:37
Speaker 1: on board who will benefit most on this so we
18:40
Speaker 1: have some future stability, maybe even another opportunity to expand
18:43
Speaker 1: the Abraham Accords. It may go that direction, and it
18:46
Speaker 1: has lined up that way in spite of it seems
18:50
Speaker 1: that you know the cult of sacs and the directional
18:52
Speaker 1: changes we've made along the way. In other words, it's
18:54
Speaker 1: been a circuitous route to hear. But compared to when
18:58
Speaker 1: we look when you look back several decades, it's a
19:00
Speaker 1: lot better seven twenty eight, fifty five KRC. The talk
19:03
Speaker 1: stations stick around, got local stories or phone calls, then
19:06
Speaker 1: we'll get to the stack of stupid. Always enjoy that
19:07
Speaker 1: on a Friday, don't go away fifty five KRC. She
19:11
Speaker 1: on a Friday, and a happy one to you and
19:16
Speaker 1: my wife is a way. She did throw an fjav
19:22
Speaker 1: in there just for good measure. Joe and Yeah five
19:24
Speaker 1: one three, seven, four nine, fifty eight two three talk
19:27
Speaker 1: looking forward Tom getting back from vacation. It kind of
19:29
Speaker 1: miss hearing him chiming in. Maybe you can launch the
19:32
Speaker 1: sound by Joe, just to make for good measure. So
19:35
Speaker 1: let him know that we're thinking about him here in
19:37
Speaker 1: the fifty five Carcy Morning Show. A let us do
19:40
Speaker 1: local stories. This is an interesting thing. My friends in
19:42
Speaker 1: the Commonwealth, illegal immigrants are no longer going to receive
19:45
Speaker 1: in state tuition at Kentucky's public colleges. Oh, that's according
19:50
Speaker 1: to a federal judge, which ruled on Wednesday, sorry, the
19:52
Speaker 1: policy violates US law and permanently blocked that enforcement. Ruling
19:56
Speaker 1: issue by US District Judge Gregory Van Titanhove announcing the
20:02
Speaker 1: win for Kentucky A G. Russell Coleman, who along with
20:07
Speaker 1: the Trump administration, challenged the policy is giving benefits to
20:09
Speaker 1: those in the country illegally that federal law does not allow. Accordingly,
20:13
Speaker 1: Kentucky's higher educationation system has to end the discount of rates.
20:17
Speaker 1: Lawsuit argued the policy violated federal law, which states specifically
20:22
Speaker 1: that quote an alien who is not lawfully president in
20:24
Speaker 1: the United States shall not be eligible on the basis
20:27
Speaker 1: of residents within a state for any post secondary education
20:31
Speaker 1: benefit unless a citizen or national of the United States
20:36
Speaker 1: is eligible for such benefit, without regard to whether the
20:39
Speaker 1: citizen in or national is such a resident. So you
20:41
Speaker 1: got to give it to everybody who's in a citizen
20:44
Speaker 1: and apparently that wasn't the case. Yes. On Wednesday this week, A. G.
20:48
Speaker 1: Coleman celebrated the ruling, saying that the Kentucky education regulation
20:55
Speaker 1: operative word there violated the Constitution's supremacy clause permanently in
20:59
Speaker 1: joining Kentucky Council of post Secondary Education from enforcing it.
21:04
Speaker 1: He said, federal law is clear. Illegal immigrants do not
21:06
Speaker 1: get preferential treatments at Kentucky's public universities, and Kentucky taxpayers
21:10
Speaker 1: certainly shouldn't be footing a bill. Amen. This Kentucky's chief
21:14
Speaker 1: law officer. I was proud to join the Trump administration
21:17
Speaker 1: to make sure our commonwealth is upholding federal law and
21:19
Speaker 1: fundamental fairness of American citizens. Will continue focusing on helping
21:23
Speaker 1: Kentucky students reach for their full potential. So there you go.
21:27
Speaker 1: Congratulations to the commonwealth. You gotta be happy about that
21:32
Speaker 1: from a taxpayer standpoint. Oh look, Representative Greg Landsman, you know,
21:37
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Council Democrat ah apparently being accused by his primary
21:43
Speaker 1: opponent of supporting genocide. Who's saying that? Damon Lynch, the
21:47
Speaker 1: fourth you know him, since a Democrat challenging Landsman in
21:50
Speaker 1: the primary coming up in May, launched a website referring
21:52
Speaker 1: to Landsman as quote genocide Greg a close quote with
21:56
Speaker 1: claims that Landsman is bought and paid for by pro
22:00
Speaker 1: Israel lobbyist. Okay, I know what that suggests about Damon Lynch.
22:04
Speaker 1: In making the accusation. Landsman apparently gotten criticism from both
22:11
Speaker 1: Lynch and others on social media after he was one
22:14
Speaker 1: of the four Democrats to vote against war the War
22:16
Speaker 1: Powers Resolution to stop the action in Iran without congressional approval.
22:21
Speaker 1: Landsman has since said he would vote in favor of
22:23
Speaker 1: the next War Powers resolution if it comes before the
22:26
Speaker 1: House Representatives, telling attendees at a town hall Lebanon on
22:29
Speaker 1: March twenty second that it's time for the US to
22:31
Speaker 1: be done in Iran.
22:33
Speaker 4: Yeah.
22:33
Speaker 1: I guess decisions have political consequences, don't they.
22:36
Speaker 2: Greg.
22:37
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, go ahead, Damon Lynch, pile up on Greg Landsman.
22:41
Speaker 1: We all enjoy that. Here on the fifty five Kerrse
22:43
Speaker 1: Morning Show, it is five thirty five. I have a
22:46
Speaker 1: stack as stupid. I plan on diving into that as
22:48
Speaker 1: soon as we get back from these brief words. Fifty
22:51
Speaker 1: five KRC Station can Fisherman five forty on a Friday,
22:58
Speaker 1: of course, in a very happy one to fifty second
23:02
Speaker 1: anniversary of the tornadoes that hit so hard April third

Speaker 1: and fourth, nineteen seventy four. I remember it like it
23:11
Speaker 1: was yesterday, being hunkered up down in the basement Sailor
23:13
Speaker 1: Park got wiped out. Do you remember those days? Ees
23:25
Speaker 1: seemed to remember them hitting Xenia pretty hard too. Anyhow,
23:29
Speaker 1: I was eight eight years old and Joe told me.
23:33
Speaker 1: I said, Joe, you weren't even born yet. He was
23:35
Speaker 1: actually in utero. He was his mom was carrying him
23:39
Speaker 1: around when the tornadoes rolled through. So anyway, that was that.

26:27
Speaker 1: connected with the incident walking across the street in a
26:29
Speaker 1: nearby parking lot completely naked. Man named Steve Akrey said
26:34
Speaker 1: he and his wife had just left the area and
26:36
Speaker 1: were walking back to their car at three thirty in
26:38
Speaker 1: the morning when they saw the man. He said, that's
26:39
Speaker 1: when he came over here completely nude, jumped the fence
26:43
Speaker 1: and busted a sprinkler head and was taking a shower
26:46
Speaker 1: in it like he was at home.
26:48
Speaker 6: A's his tradition.
26:49
Speaker 1: Acre said it took him a moment to realize the
26:51
Speaker 1: man wasn't wearing any clothes. He said, I called the
26:53
Speaker 1: cops and they asked what he was wearing, and he said,
26:56
Speaker 1: I said, well, not too much. He's completely nude. He
27:00
Speaker 1: did have a hat on Accord to Acre, the man
27:05
Speaker 1: repeatedly tried to break the sprinkler heads before finally damaging
27:08
Speaker 1: one and standing under the flowing water outside temperature at
27:11
Speaker 1: the time about fifty degrees. Acrey attempted to talk to
27:14
Speaker 1: the guy, but said he appeared to be disoriented and
27:17
Speaker 1: repeated the same phrases without acknowledging him. Officers eventually detained him,
27:22
Speaker 1: Matching the description, appeared to be under the influence and
27:24
Speaker 1: possibly experiencing a mental health crisis. The witness. Acrey said
27:28
Speaker 1: the man struggled during the encounter and broke for you
27:31
Speaker 1: several times before the officers secured him, taking it to
27:33
Speaker 1: local hospital for treatment. His name and age have not
27:36

Speaker 1: two Stacker Stupid. We've got to Bedford, New Hampshire Police
29:14
Speaker 1: are asking for public sealth in identifying a naked guy
29:17
Speaker 1: who's been well seen walking through local neighborhoods. Officers responded
29:22
Speaker 1: to the area of Elizabeth Way about five o'clock in
29:24
Speaker 1: the morning last Thursday for reports of a nude guy
29:27
Speaker 1: walking up the driveway. Investigation to terms that the unidentified
29:30
Speaker 1: man had walked up several driveways between two and three
29:32
Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning. When they were searching the area's
29:35
Speaker 1: officers found an open door to a residence. Police entered,
29:38
Speaker 1: no one was located inside. They say the man appeared
29:40
Speaker 1: to match the description of two similar reports made in
29:43
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks of a guy seen running
29:46
Speaker 1: nude on Campbell Road in the early morning hours. Local
29:50
Speaker 1: news there NBC ten Boston spoke with the man, who
29:53
Speaker 1: said he is the person in the photo and his
29:58
Speaker 1: father on Thursday. They said it's case of are you
30:00
Speaker 1: ready sleep walking along with a medical condition that hasn't
30:05
Speaker 1: been described. Only found out about the incidents through social media.
30:08
Speaker 1: They didn't even know what was happening.
30:15
Speaker 8: Eh.
30:15
Speaker 1: Fairfax, Virginia surveillance video shows the latest attempt to break
30:18
Speaker 1: in by are you ready? What day is it? Friday?
30:21
Speaker 2: So? Who is it?
30:22
Speaker 1: A naked guy targeting homes in Centerville, Virginia. Fairfax kind
30:27
Speaker 1: of police shared the details naked burglar case during a
30:29
Speaker 1: press conference earlier this week. Following the attempted break in
30:33
Speaker 1: earlier in the morning at a Palmerston Square location, surveillance
30:39
Speaker 1: system captured the video of the nude guy wearing only
30:42
Speaker 1: sneakers and what police believe to be an article of
30:45
Speaker 1: clothing wrapped around his head walking up to a residence
30:49
Speaker 1: house five o'clock in the morning. Suspect looked inside the
30:51
Speaker 1: house attempted to open the rear sliding glass door. When
30:53
Speaker 1: the door did not open, he fled to a nearby
30:56
Speaker 1: wooded area. Resident contacted officers after receiving it alert from
31:00
Speaker 1: the home surveillance system. Fairfax's Handy Police released a surveillance video.
31:06
Speaker 1: Certainly an individual who's going up to the back of
31:08
Speaker 1: a home running away, there's some knowledge and awareness of
31:11
Speaker 1: what they're doing, but there could be a layer of
31:13
Speaker 1: mental health that's involved with this going down in a
31:16
Speaker 1: limb on that, aren't you Major James Curry with the
31:21
Speaker 1: police department there. Yeah, maybe turning someone in to make
31:24
Speaker 1: sure this does not happen again or does not involve
31:27
Speaker 1: someone else is very important. I would say somebody's responsibility
31:30
Speaker 1: to the community. So step up to the plague. One
31:33
Speaker 1: resident there, we're panicking and freaking out because we do
31:36
Speaker 1: have kids, and it's very scary and surprising because this
31:39
Speaker 1: has always felt like such a safe neighborhood. March fifth,
31:44
Speaker 1: investigators said the nude guy entered a bedroom inside a
31:47
Speaker 1: home there on Bodally Square five and a quarter after
31:49
Speaker 1: five in the morning when the resident was getting ready
31:51
Speaker 1: for work and after confronting the victim, the naked guy
31:54
Speaker 1: ran out. Next day, police said a resident found a
31:58
Speaker 1: footprint in a trash can that had been moved moved
32:00
Speaker 1: against the fence at their home. Resident believes that had
32:02
Speaker 1: been used to climb into their backyard. Detective said evidence
32:05
Speaker 1: indicated there was in fact an attempt at burglary. Next
32:08
Speaker 1: day four point thirty in the Warning Different Road, investigator
32:11
Speaker 1: say a resident woke up by her dog barking. She
32:14
Speaker 1: saw a fully naked guy inside the residence before he ran.
32:18
Speaker 1: Jeez Wez Major James Curry, an individual who entered our
32:24
Speaker 1: victims home awoke in a victim and said the man
32:26
Speaker 1: peering through the one of the doors and noticed he
32:28
Speaker 1: was naked. Fortunately she was able to startle him off.
32:31
Speaker 1: Next day, home in Paddington Lane said a resident heard
32:35
Speaker 1: footsteps in the hallway they saw the naked guy standing
32:37
Speaker 1: in a doorway. Thority is asking everyone to check out
32:42
Speaker 1: their surveillance footage and report this activity. Wow, do what
32:48
Speaker 1: the hell you think they had? The castle doctrine there,
32:53
Speaker 1: I have to look up that state's law. Do you
32:59
Speaker 1: really wonder that, Joe, but you think that that's going
33:05
Speaker 1: to be part of the lineup? Should I say the
33:11
Speaker 1: word out loud about what you're talking about, Joe? H
33:14
Speaker 1: circumcision is Joe's concern whether or not that's gonna be
33:19
Speaker 1: definitive in the investigation, Joe, is that what you're concluding?
33:30
Speaker 1: And moving away from naked people, Let's go to Mount
33:32
Speaker 1: Everest where I thought this was a weird, weird scam.
33:35
Speaker 1: Mount Everest Guide, you know, the sherpas apparently have been
33:39
Speaker 1: lacing tourist food to trigger medical events which make the
33:44
Speaker 1: tourists feel as if they're suffering from gastro intestinal issues
33:51
Speaker 1: or altitude sickness. Police and NEPAUL charge thirty two individuals
33:56
Speaker 1: of organized crime and fraud. Charges related to this plot
33:59
Speaker 1: involves wrecking companies, you know, the sharper groups that take
34:02
Speaker 1: people up up the mountain, helicopter operators and hospital executives.
34:06
Speaker 1: The Court of the Katman do Post guides with the
34:08
Speaker 1: Trekking agencies poison the tourists by putting baking soda in
34:11
Speaker 1: their foods. This triggered severe gaster intestinal distress and of
34:14
Speaker 1: course mimics altitude sickness, food poisoning. Once ill, the visitors
34:18
Speaker 1: were pressured into agreeing to very costly emergency helicopter evacuations,
34:25
Speaker 1: with operators using forged medical and flight documents to build
34:28
Speaker 1: international travel insurers for the cost. The stolen money then
34:32
Speaker 1: split among the guides, helicopter companies, trekking agencies, and the
34:36
Speaker 1: hospitals where the tourists were taken for their fake treatments.
34:41
Speaker 1: Started with six executives from three prominent mountain rescue firms.
34:44
Speaker 1: Investigators learned about this, they fraudulently obtained at least just
34:48
Speaker 1: so I have twenty million dollars in insurance payments, accused
34:51
Speaker 1: of faking one hundred and seventy one of its two
34:55
Speaker 1: hundred and forty eight claimed rescues. Second company also has
35:00
Speaker 1: been charged with this same operation. Apparently, those helicopter flights
35:05
Speaker 1: out if you need one, you have a legitimate medical claim,
35:08
Speaker 1: or you're duped by this. Forty five thousand dollars to
35:13
Speaker 1: I believe seventy thousand dollars is what was quoted in
35:16
Speaker 1: the article for a helicopter flight. Yeah, I know, I've
35:21
Speaker 1: been waiting around my entire life with a bucket list
35:23
Speaker 1: to go up the side of Mount Evers. Yeah, that
35:24
Speaker 1: sounds like a hell of a good time. No, thank you,
35:26
Speaker 1: Stick around more talking, more to talk about in the
35:28
Speaker 1: six o'clock hour. Love to hear from you before we
35:30
Speaker 1: get the Tech Friday with Dave Hatter at six thirty.
35:32
Speaker 1: Be right back the iHeartRadio app where we put the
35:35
Speaker 1: apps at six or six to fifty five k R
35:39
Speaker 1: scene talk station. Mon name is Brian Thomas. I host
35:41
Speaker 1: this show. It's the fifty five KARC Morning Show, which
35:45
Speaker 1: couldn't happen without Joe Strecker, executive producer, and couldn't happen
35:48
Speaker 1: without great guests that Joe lines up and I always
35:50
Speaker 1: look forward to six thirty on a Friday with Tech
35:51
Speaker 1: Friday with Dave Hatter. This morning we'll talk about leaked
35:54
Speaker 1: email suggesting that your ring doorbell is going to be well,
35:57
Speaker 1: that whole system is going to be expanded to search
36:00
Speaker 1: party surveillance way beyond dogs. High tech's scarecrow whatever that
36:06
Speaker 1: is they're apparently watching you. We learned about that from Dave,
36:08
Speaker 1: and the second segment on that we'll find out also
36:11
Speaker 1: what the so called high tech scarecrows are really being
36:14
Speaker 1: used for and if you got an iPhone update now
36:19
Speaker 1: apparently iPhone users need to do that right now. There's
36:22
Speaker 1: a new operating system. We'll find out why that is
36:24
Speaker 1: so urgent. At least that's the suggestion from the Rundown topics.
36:28
Speaker 1: Fast forward to seven oh five. One hour from now,
36:30
Speaker 1: we get an hour of power, actually an hour of
36:32
Speaker 1: health Restore Wellness dot Org. George Brunnman, Keith Tenfeld return
36:36
Speaker 1: timing great on that one. Answering the question, well, where
36:40
Speaker 1: do I start in sofar as taking better care of
36:42
Speaker 1: your health? Suggestions for the first step on improving nutrition
36:45
Speaker 1: and starting an exercise program, and how to have a
36:47
Speaker 1: friend conversation with your doctor. Generally speaking, that's George and
36:51
Speaker 1: Keith seven oh five. Love those guys, love what they're doing.
36:53
Speaker 1: And let's look, it's just an effort to help us
36:56
Speaker 1: all improve ourselves, and lord knows I could use some improvement.
36:59
Speaker 1: Eight oh five. This should be fascinating. We have a
37:01
Speaker 1: third generation trucker. His name's Gordon McGill, and he's written
37:05
Speaker 1: a book and apparently we got some problems in the
37:07
Speaker 1: trucking industry, brought to you by of course government at
37:10
Speaker 1: name of the book. End of the Road. Inside the
37:12
Speaker 1: War on Truckers. He's going to be talking about Delilah's Law,
37:14
Speaker 1: which is apparently necessary because of the illegal immigrants are
37:17
Speaker 1: getting behind the wheel semi tractor trailers. But he goes
37:20
Speaker 1: back to the Motor Carrier Act of nineteen eighty, which
37:24
Speaker 1: apparently rearranged the economics for the trucking business, and he
37:27
Speaker 1: says is the underlying cause of every other problem since
37:31
Speaker 1: it was enacted in nineteen eighty. Now the American and
37:34
Speaker 1: Trucking Association is undermining the American trucker Those and other topics.
37:38
Speaker 1: In his book End of the Road, Inside the War
37:40
Speaker 1: on Truckers, that's at eight oh five. In between now
37:43
Speaker 1: and then, you can feel free to call five one, three, seven,
37:45
Speaker 1: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty to
37:47
Speaker 1: two three Talkco pound five fifty on AT and T
37:49
Speaker 1: phones and number fifty five cars dot Com. I heard
37:52
Speaker 1: media aps. You can listen wherever you happen to be.
37:54
Speaker 1: Good morning to Curbage, Mike coming home from the Smoking Mountains.
37:58
Speaker 1: Congressman Moore Davidson on the show yesterday we did talk
38:00
Speaker 1: about the resolution for funding the government, and yes, as
38:04
Speaker 1: I mentioned, Indie last hour, Chuck Schummer admitted it yesterday
38:07
Speaker 1: in a long circuitous response to some questioning from CNN's
38:11
Speaker 1: Situation Room co host. They got nothing. Now he'll tell
38:17
Speaker 1: you nine thousand times as he did yesterday. Nothing, we
38:19
Speaker 1: got nothing, nothing, nothing we got. Ultimately, that's boiled down
38:22
Speaker 1: what it is. You go on and talk about how
38:24
Speaker 1: this is. Republicans are going to own this. Everyone's going
38:26
Speaker 1: to blame the Republicans for the shutdown. But why did
38:29
Speaker 1: the government stay remain shut down for song? Well, the
38:32
Speaker 1: Democrats were holding out for ice reforms. You could probably
38:35
Speaker 1: rattle them off yourself, including wearing masks now, and I
38:42
Speaker 1: ran this by Congress from David's and yesterday they've got
38:44
Speaker 1: this two pronged solution. No, there is no funding for
38:47
Speaker 1: Ice and Customs and the CBB in this new bill
38:51
Speaker 1: or this new resolution. But it was already funded. And
38:55
Speaker 1: CNN kept saying that to Shimmer, Well, listen, man, it's
38:58
Speaker 1: already funded Ice and CBP there funded. It was the
39:00
Speaker 1: one big, beautiful bill. What did you get by shutting
39:03
Speaker 1: down the government? Dodge dip, duck, dive, and Dodge is
39:06
Speaker 1: starting the five d's of dodge. While Chuckie Schumer again
39:09
Speaker 1: kept saying how the Republicans are gonna get blamed for this,
39:11
Speaker 1: but when pressed, did you get anything ultimately boiled down?
39:15
Speaker 1: They got absolutely nothing. And yes, ICEN CBP are funded.
39:19
Speaker 1: So we went through this ridiculous exercise for absolutely no reason.
39:24
Speaker 1: So if you felt any pain, I think it falls
39:28
Speaker 1: square in the Democrats lap. Now moving over to Iran,
39:32
Speaker 1: and Barton swam in an interesting analysis of this. I
39:35
Speaker 1: alluded to this in the last hour, and I got
39:37
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and just read it because I
39:38
Speaker 1: do that stand on the shoulder of giants all the time,
39:40
Speaker 1: because it makes some great points.
39:41
Speaker 2: You know.
39:42
Speaker 1: Well, let's just start Barton Wright. Today's Wall Street Journal,
39:47
Speaker 1: yesh is yesterday's if at piece. If you if all
39:49
Speaker 1: you knew about the war in Iran is what you
39:51
Speaker 1: read in the American and the European press, you might
39:53
Speaker 1: conclude that the United States has never prosecuted a war
39:56
Speaker 1: so ineptly as it has this one. In fact, nearly
39:59
Speaker 1: the the opposite is true. Iran's rulers have been on
40:02
Speaker 1: the job for a month, their predecessors having died on
40:04
Speaker 1: February twenty eighth. The US has destroyed most of Iran's
40:08
Speaker 1: Navy neutered what remains of it. Its air defense no
40:11
Speaker 1: longer exists. Some large part of its ballistic missiles have
40:13
Speaker 1: been used, destroyed, or damaged. Its capacity to build more
40:16
Speaker 1: is nearly at an end. Iran's nuclear prep programs, central
40:20
Speaker 1: to the regime's identity, lies under rubble. Israeli strikes have
40:23
Speaker 1: inflicted havoc on the Islamic Republic's internal repression apparatus. The
40:28
Speaker 1: regime's terrorist proxies appear quiet or on the run, suggesting
40:32
Speaker 1: a shortage in Islamic Revolutionary Guard core commanders telling them
40:35
Speaker 1: what to do. Most of America's and Europe's news media meanwhile,
40:41
Speaker 1: sift through the details to find evidence of US incompetence.
40:45
Speaker 1: The administration didn't plan for missile and drone strikes on
40:48
Speaker 1: its basis the war benefits Russia, benefits China. War planners
40:51
Speaker 1: didn't count on Iran's closing. The strait of horror moves
40:53
Speaker 1: on and on. These claims deserve attention, though dispositive, they
40:58
Speaker 1: are not. The war obliges the US to East sanctions
41:02
Speaker 1: on Russian oil, but the destruction of Russia's chief client
41:05
Speaker 1: in the Middle East creates problems from Moscow that far
41:08
Speaker 1: outweigh any short term boost in oil revenue. The complaint
41:15
Speaker 1: that a ward and around distracts the US from Chinese
41:17
Speaker 1: aggression rests on the truism that nation's attention is finite.
41:21
Speaker 1: All wars distract, As for the Strait, its remaining open
41:27
Speaker 1: would have been the real surprise. You have to assume
41:31
Speaker 1: some of this relentless pessimism stems from the belief, familiar
41:36
Speaker 1: after a decade, that whatever Donald Trump does must lead
41:39
Speaker 1: to disaster. That's a sorry way to get at the truth.
41:43
Speaker 1: But the smallness and lockstep defeatism of so much commentary
41:48
Speaker 1: on the war also stems from the normal human tendency
41:51
Speaker 1: to interpret today's big thing as another version of yesterday's.
41:57
Speaker 1: A lazy, cynical view of events sets in the Iran wars,
42:01
Speaker 1: like the Iraq War, which was a version of Vietnam War,
42:04
Speaker 1: all sooner or later end in chaos. In failure. History
42:09
Speaker 1: doesn't repeat itself. It rhymes, as the maxim has it,
42:12
Speaker 1: but it rhymes infrequently. Linear thinking can enlighten where cincal doesn't.
42:20
Speaker 2: Here you go.
42:20
Speaker 1: The overthrow of Saddam Hussein and attempt to replace his
42:24
Speaker 1: regime with a democratic government failed to remake the Middle
42:28
Speaker 1: East in the way its planners hoped, But the removal
42:35
Speaker 1: of Iraq is a global mischief maker, set in motion
42:38
Speaker 1: a longer and wider remaking in which the Arab Gulf
42:42
Speaker 1: states moved closer to the United States and Israel to
42:45
Speaker 1: thwart the remaining menace Iran. Since then, for a host
42:49
Speaker 1: of complicated and mostly unforseeable reasons, disparate circumstances across the
42:54
Speaker 1: region inclined slowly in a promising direction. Saudi Arabia, underground
42:59
Speaker 1: principleha and Ben Salmon has undertaken the risky work of
43:03
Speaker 1: westernizing the kingdom and abandoning the cynical policy of funding
43:07
Speaker 1: radical madrasas and broad to buy off the Islamist Lujin
43:12
Speaker 1: Bashar Ala Sad and Syria unexpectedly collapsed in twenty tur
43:15
Speaker 1: and a twenty twenty four, an event made possible by
43:18
Speaker 1: Israel's degradations of its guarantur Iran. No one knows which
43:23
Speaker 1: course Syria is under Aman al Sharah will choose, but
43:27
Speaker 1: for the first time in half a century, its government
43:30
Speaker 1: appears to want amicable relations with the US and Israel.
43:35
Speaker 1: I just thought, maybe add them to the Abraham accurts
43:37
Speaker 1: perhaps down the road that is possible now moving back
43:41
Speaker 1: to Barton Swain, Lebanon, also, for the first time in decades,
43:44
Speaker 1: makes progress in ridding itself of Hezbala, weakened as that
43:48
Speaker 1: Jihadis terrorist group is by the travails of its backers
43:52
Speaker 1: in Tehran, Lebanie's President Joseph Own, breaking a taboo against
43:57
Speaker 1: so much as acknowledging Israel's legit intimacy, gestures toward a
44:01
Speaker 1: settlement with the Jewish State for the purpose of disarming Hisbawa.
44:06
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and bah Rain grow
44:08
Speaker 1: daily more committed to the work of defanging or toppling Iran,
44:12
Speaker 1: beginning with the forcible opening of the Strait of Horror moves.
44:14
Speaker 1: In the background lie the Abraham Accords and the recognition
44:18
Speaker 1: by Gulf Arab states that their survival depends as much
44:22
Speaker 1: on commerce with the West, including Israel, as it does
44:26
Speaker 1: on oil. Bah Rain and the uae ER signatories. Saudi
44:30
Speaker 1: Arabia hints that joining isn't unthinkable. It's notable that foreign
44:35
Speaker 1: policy mandarins in the US and Europe either opposed or
44:40
Speaker 1: scorned each of the big events that made possible this
44:43
Speaker 1: moment of hope the Iraq War, the Abraham Accords, and
44:48
Speaker 1: the kinetic strikes on Iran, first by Israel and then
44:51
Speaker 1: by the United States. The mandarins preferred Barack Obama's nuclear deal,
44:54
Speaker 1: which failed to pacify Iran and explicitly did nothing to
44:59
Speaker 1: curtain well its exportation of terror. The stabler and more
45:04
Speaker 1: commerce driven Middle East has an immeasurably greater chance of
45:08
Speaker 1: emerging after the Islamic Republic fails or anyway falls to
45:13
Speaker 1: its knees. Everything depends on what fractured and abused Iranian
45:18
Speaker 1: populace can do when the bombs stop dropping. No one knows,
45:22
Speaker 1: although one may reasonably surmise, based on Israeli competence so
45:26
Speaker 1: far that the regimes opponents will have access to weapons
45:30
Speaker 1: and intelligence. Another reasonable inference Iran's rulers, whoever they are
45:36
Speaker 1: at this point, and I think this is a really
45:38
Speaker 1: important thing to note, as the Iranians seem to be
45:40
Speaker 1: building up troops in prepreparation for boots on the ground
45:43
Speaker 1: by the American forces and Israeli forces. The Iranians rulers,
45:48
Speaker 1: whoever they are at this point, going back, would rather
45:50
Speaker 1: die than relinquish their ambitions at the hands of the
45:54
Speaker 1: Great Satan. Barton Slam concludes that they may get their
45:58
Speaker 1: druthers in the end. I think the operative word in
46:01
Speaker 1: that conclusion is may depends on where we go from here.
46:04
Speaker 1: But you know, justing back, yeah, a lot of bad
46:07
Speaker 1: a lot of gloom and doom sayers, and you know
46:09
Speaker 1: you can count me among them in this current conflict
46:11
Speaker 1: because I hate war and I don't want to see
46:12
Speaker 1: American lives lost, and I questioned the legality of it,
46:17
Speaker 1: But I'm smart enough to see what Barton Swam sees.
46:20
Speaker 1: You know, over time, what's happening now doesn't necessarily line
46:23
Speaker 1: up with ultimately happens and turns out to be quite beneficial,
46:27
Speaker 1: not only for us, but for everyone in that region.
46:31
Speaker 1: So if we can look for something hopeful as we
46:34
Speaker 1: enter this Easter weekend, maybe, just maybe the Arab nations
46:38
Speaker 1: will in fact wake up to the fact that the
46:40
Speaker 1: biggest problem in there is their own backyard Iran. It
46:43
Speaker 1: funds terrorist organizations who are a constant disruptive factor in
46:48
Speaker 1: the region. You can't ever count on stability as long
46:51
Speaker 1: as has Bala and the other crazies in the the
46:54
Speaker 1: terrorist business are launching missiles or had the capability of
46:56
Speaker 1: launching missiles into the Strait of Horrormus and blowing up both.
47:00
Speaker 1: You know, the insurance premiums for those boats are a
47:03
Speaker 1: significant factor and cost, and you know the price of
47:06
Speaker 1: fuel and other supplies that go through the strait. Boy,
47:08
Speaker 1: if you could only eradicate that, we'd see some measure
47:11
Speaker 1: of relief and the rest of the globe who already
47:14
Speaker 1: has found themselves on the reality side looking at what
47:18
Speaker 1: how much they actually rely on the Strait and they
47:21
Speaker 1: have to be honest with themselves when thinking about this.
47:24
Speaker 1: M I wonder why the strait is closed. You can
47:26
Speaker 1: go ahead and try to point a finger at the
47:28
Speaker 1: United States and Israel for starting a war, but Iran
47:31
Speaker 1: had a stranglehold on that and they always have. They're
47:35
Speaker 1: the ones that rely on everything coming through the Strait
47:38
Speaker 1: of Horror moves. Maybe it's in their best interests as
47:40
Speaker 1: well as the interest of all the Arab nations to
47:43
Speaker 1: crush Iran while the opportunity is right in front of
47:46
Speaker 1: us six eighteen fifty five KRCE the talk station. Feel
47:50
Speaker 1: free to give me a call.
47:51
Speaker 4: Talk Station.
47:59
Speaker 1: Fifty five care CD talk Station, Happy Good, Friday, David,
48:08
Speaker 1: and an advanced Happy Easter to all of my Christian
48:12
Speaker 1: friends in the listening audience. Hope you have a wonderful celebration.
48:14
Speaker 1: We're having family over on Sunday and I'm really looking
48:16
Speaker 1: forward to that. So Mom, looking forward to having you
48:19
Speaker 1: over for dinner. Let us see here and I just
48:23
Speaker 1: pulled up the Wall Street Journal looking at the futures market. Yes,
48:25
Speaker 1: oil is up right now. Oil futures up twelve percent.
48:31
Speaker 1: Crude oil won twelve six a barrel, and as of
48:35
Speaker 1: yesterday gas price gasoline prices of top four dollars in
48:39
Speaker 1: already eighteen states and with the spiking prices overnight expected
48:44
Speaker 1: to go up more. National average yesterday was four dollars
48:46
Speaker 1: and eight cents per gallon. One month ago national average
48:50
Speaker 1: was three bucks. Here's the short term pain you got
48:52
Speaker 1: to deal with, hopefully bringing about a longer term reality
48:55
Speaker 1: down the road. Who knows. Obviously, volatility and the global
48:59
Speaker 1: energy markets straight of horror moves. We're at it again.
49:01
Speaker 1: Oil prices surged yesterday after Trump warned that the United
49:06
Speaker 1: States might strike the run extremely hard, you know, boots
49:09
Speaker 1: on the ground and that kind of thing. Threats to
49:10
Speaker 1: blow up their infrastructure. The Iranians counter threats to blow
49:14
Speaker 1: up oil and energy infrastructure as well. Iranians are now
49:18
Speaker 1: this morning already calling for blowing up the desalination's plants
49:21
Speaker 1: and energy infrastructure of the surrounding Arab regions and elsewhere.
49:26
Speaker 1: So yes, threats going back and forth. If you had
49:29
Speaker 1: a California, Hawaiian, Washington, they already way over five bucks
49:32
Speaker 1: a gallon and probably headed at six seven or eight dollars.
49:36
Speaker 1: And then if you look at what's going on South Korea,
49:39
Speaker 1: President there Lee je myung yesterday said these citizens need
49:43
Speaker 1: to save every drop of fuel earnestly, appealing to all
49:47
Speaker 1: citizens who actively participate in energy saving moments in daily lives,
49:50
Speaker 1: taking public transportation, conserving electricity. I mean, the crisis is
49:55
Speaker 1: not a passing shower that quickly subsdized, but rather a
49:58
Speaker 1: massive storm who's d is uncertain that making it more severe.
50:02
Speaker 1: They too rely substantially on the bottleneck there in the
50:06
Speaker 1: straight of horror moves. So the nations out in the
50:09
Speaker 1: world are reeling from this more than the United States is.
50:12
Speaker 1: As Donald Trump keep pointing out, we got all the
50:14
Speaker 1: oil that we can handle and more, and we're happy
50:17
Speaker 1: to sell it to everybody else. Turned out maybe good
50:21
Speaker 1: for the American economy.
50:22
Speaker 2: I don't know.
50:23
Speaker 1: Excuse me, that's the cough buttons for Brian. Coming up
50:30
Speaker 1: Tech Friday with Dave had Or first foreign exchange, take
50:32
Speaker 1: your car to foreign exchange if you have a traditionally
50:34
Speaker 1: manufactee is really trying to keep us all safe, keep
50:37
Speaker 1: us out of trouble. Of course, when it comes to
50:39
Speaker 1: your business computer needs business courier says intrust it. Dave's
50:42
Speaker 1: company is the best. You can find them on a
50:44
Speaker 1: lone at interust i dot com. And Dave, how do
50:46
Speaker 1: we always appreciate interest I sponsoring this segment valuable? It
50:49
Speaker 1: is welcome back and happy happy good Friday to you.
50:53
Speaker 5: Thanks Brian, always good to be here, Happy good Friday
50:55
Speaker 5: to you and showing all your listeners.
50:57
Speaker 1: All right, I know you love when this happens. We
50:59
Speaker 1: got a couple of or weel issues here. First segment
51:02
Speaker 1: and next segment we're going to start with the ring
51:04
Speaker 1: doorbell things. Now we all learned in the Super Bowl
51:07
Speaker 1: that they'll help you find your dog, because I guess
51:09
Speaker 1: all the ring cameras immediately operator start recording when a
51:12
Speaker 1: dog runs by. I don't know how it works, but
51:14
Speaker 1: they're expanding this surveillance network beyond dogs.
51:18
Speaker 2: Dave, what is going on here?
51:20
Speaker 5: Yeah, so this is an article from four oh four,
51:23
Speaker 5: And you know, Brian, I'll post all this stuff on
51:25
Speaker 5: my substacks that people can go read these articles for themselves.
51:28
Speaker 1: LinkedIn dot com search, Dave Haddard links LinkedIn dot com search,
51:33
Speaker 1: Dave Hatdterd.
51:33
Speaker 5: There you go, easy to find. Yeah, you can find
51:36
Speaker 5: me on x as well. But so headlines, suits, bleaked emails,
51:42
Speaker 5: suggests Ring plans to expand search party and that's this
51:45
Speaker 5: feature surveillance beyond dogs. Right, So yeah, during the Super
51:49
Speaker 5: Bowl and they had this ad and then you know,
51:50
Speaker 5: there are also was some talk about integration with flock cameras,
51:54
Speaker 5: the highly controversial license plate reading cameras that have propped
51:57
Speaker 5: up in many places, and the idea. You know, Brian,
52:00
Speaker 5: this is the problem with so much of this stuff.
52:03
Speaker 5: You know, I'm not a fan of the Internet of Things.
52:04
Speaker 5: I don't have ring doorbells or nest doorbells or thermostats
52:08
Speaker 5: or any of this stuff. And it's because a most
52:11
Speaker 5: people don't really understand how these things work or what
52:14
Speaker 5: they're capable of. And what I mean by that is,
52:17
Speaker 5: it has a feature set today. Right, if you have
52:19
Speaker 5: a device that has a microphone and the camerainet, it
52:22
Speaker 5: has certain features when it ships, what's got software in it, right,
52:26
Speaker 5: and that software can be upgraded to add additional new
52:30
Speaker 5: features to that at some future point. We've all seen
52:35
Speaker 5: things like a feature gets turned off, or you know,
52:37
Speaker 5: they add some new feature at some future point and
52:39
Speaker 5: maybe now you need to pay for that feature. You know,
52:42
Speaker 5: a lot of these things will use up what is
52:45
Speaker 5: often called a freemium model, where you get certain core
52:48
Speaker 5: functionality at an entry level price or maybe for free,
52:52
Speaker 5: and then if you want advanced capabilities you have to
52:54
Speaker 5: pay for it. I'm sure many of your listeners have seen.
52:57
Speaker 5: And this is another thing that I'm not happy about.
53:00
Speaker 5: Or software driven future. And again you're talking to a
53:02
Speaker 5: guy who wrote software for twenty five years. The idea
53:05
Speaker 5: that because now things are controlled by software, I can
53:08
Speaker 5: make you subscribe to things. Oh, the heated seats in
53:11
Speaker 5: your car, you get three three months, and then if
53:12
Speaker 5: you want to use those in the future.
53:14
Speaker 2: You now have to pay for it.
53:16
Speaker 5: Oh you want am radio in your car, Well, okay,
53:18
Speaker 5: you're gonna have to pay for that. Or whatever it
53:20
Speaker 5: is right, because I can turn functionality on or turn
53:24
Speaker 5: functionality off here this search party feature. The idea is
53:29
Speaker 5: you have a lost pet, all these ring cameras can
53:31
Speaker 5: potentially work together so as the dog goes by, it
53:35
Speaker 5: picks up the dog and can identify the dog and
53:38
Speaker 5: help you find your dog.
53:39
Speaker 2: That's great, right, I mean, who wouldn't really want.
53:41
Speaker 1: That's the initial reaction because as someone who grew up
53:44
Speaker 1: with a dog Buffy the West Hall of Whiteear that
53:46
Speaker 1: ran away and would never come back, you had to
53:49
Speaker 1: go out with a search party and find them. That
53:50
Speaker 1: was anxiety inducing. So my first reaction when I saw
53:52
Speaker 1: that was, oh, that's really cool. But then you pause
53:54
Speaker 1: anything but but yes, but what Dave's gonna shook about
53:59
Speaker 1: right now?
54:00
Speaker 5: As this article points out right, and so I'm reading
54:03
Speaker 5: directly from the article, rings ceo told staff, And this
54:07
Speaker 5: is again in regards to the search party feature. Rings
54:10
Speaker 5: ceo told staff the future is quote first for finding
54:14
Speaker 5: dogs unquote, indicating a plan to expand.
54:18
Speaker 3: It.
54:18
Speaker 5: Goes on to say rings controversial with AI powered search
54:20
Speaker 5: party feature isn't intended to always be limited to only dogs.
54:23
Speaker 5: The company founder Jamie Simonov told Ring employees. In an
54:26
Speaker 5: internal email obtained by four o four Media, you know
54:29
Speaker 5: it says this feature was launched in October and on
54:33
Speaker 5: by default feature. So this is another thing, another reason
54:35
Speaker 5: why I don't like these Internet things devices. So, whether
54:39
Speaker 5: it's a ring doorbell, a nas thermostat, a smart coffeemaker,
54:42
Speaker 5: smart TV, or whatever, these things are generally designed with
54:47
Speaker 5: speed to market, ease of use and market share in mind,
54:50
Speaker 5: and collecting as much of your data as possible.
54:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not.
54:55
Speaker 5: They're not focused on your privacy and security. Most people
54:58
Speaker 5: don't know how to set things up directly from a
55:00
Speaker 5: security and privacy standpoint. They don't understand all the settings.
55:04
Speaker 5: I would argue that in many cases the settings are
55:06
Speaker 5: optuse purposely, very deep inside on purpose and the business.
55:12
Speaker 5: This is known as dark patterns, to make it difficult
55:14
Speaker 5: for you to find things that you might want to
55:16
Speaker 5: turn off that are beneficial to the company but not
55:18
Speaker 5: beneficial to you exactly. And again this article says on
55:22
Speaker 5: by default. So you install one of these things, it's
55:25
Speaker 5: this capability search party turned on by default feature links
55:28
Speaker 5: together ring cameras in a neighborhood and uses AI to
55:30
Speaker 5: search for specific lost dogs essentially creating a network automatic
55:34
Speaker 5: surveillance system.
55:36
Speaker 2: So if you don't want that, do you know how
55:37
Speaker 2: to turn it off? What new feature will they roll out?
55:40
Speaker 2: That's on by default? Right?
55:42
Speaker 5: If you're an adult and you buy one of these
55:44
Speaker 5: things and you understand how it works, and you understand
55:46
Speaker 5: how to set it up, you'll understand how to keep
55:48
Speaker 5: it updated, and you opt into these features. Okay, you're
55:51
Speaker 5: an adult, your choice, you have yeah, fully informed consent
55:54
Speaker 5: and you opt in. Great, but so much of this
55:56
Speaker 5: stuff you're not opted. You don't opt in. You have
55:59
Speaker 5: to you have to understand what it's doing. You have
56:03
Speaker 5: to understand how to turn it off. Automatic content recognition
56:06
Speaker 5: on these new smart TVs, most of them have this
56:08
Speaker 5: turned on, so they're literally like every so many seconds,
56:11
Speaker 5: capturing everything you're watching on TV, everything you're doing. You
56:14
Speaker 5: can turn it off. Do you do you even know
56:16
Speaker 5: that's happening? You know what it's called.
56:18
Speaker 2: Do you know how to turn it off? Probably?
56:19
Speaker 3: Not?
56:20
Speaker 2: So? Yeah. And then again this, the leaked emails seem
56:24
Speaker 2: to insinuate that the you know, long term intent is
56:27
Speaker 2: to use this for people. Yeah.
56:29
Speaker 5: Now, I know there are folks that will argue, well,
56:31
Speaker 5: this is you know, great for security and safety.
56:34
Speaker 1: Catching bad guys, finally lost children.
56:36
Speaker 5: Yeah, same same argument for flock. You know, after this ad,
56:41
Speaker 5: there was a lot of pushback on this. The Flock
56:43
Speaker 5: thing apparently has fallen apart with them, and I mean,
56:46
Speaker 5: here's another article.
56:47
Speaker 1: We're getting way over time, So I've got to grab
56:50
Speaker 1: this one up and we'll get to well a correlad
56:53
Speaker 1: to this. What are high tech scarecrows and why are
56:55
Speaker 1: they watching us? We'll continue with Dave Okay Cddalk Station,
56:58
Speaker 1: Brian Thomas with introst dot Com, Dave had Or doing
57:01
Speaker 1: Tech Friday. This one's actually even scarer than the ring
57:03
Speaker 1: doorbell reality Dave hot do we can move these scarecrows
57:06
Speaker 1: around to watch anyone, but they're designed to be seen
57:08
Speaker 1: and apparently to serve as a deterrence or would be criminals. Dave,
57:11
Speaker 1: let's dive on into this one.
57:13
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is a story from the New York Post.
57:15
Speaker 5: I would bet you every one of your listeners has
57:17
Speaker 5: seen these things around, sometimes maybe in the parking lot
57:21
Speaker 5: of a grocery store or something. Usually what you see
57:24
Speaker 5: as a long pole with one or more cameras on
57:28
Speaker 5: the top, sometimes flashing blue lights and usually a big
57:31
Speaker 5: solar panel kind of positioned on a generator. These things
57:34
Speaker 5: are mobile and it's essentially a rolling security system that
57:40
Speaker 5: can be deployed wherever you want it. In the article
57:43
Speaker 5: they call it cameras on wheels or cows. They say
57:46
Speaker 5: popping up in business, parking lots, construction sites, car lots,
57:49
Speaker 5: events and communities recovering from wildfires even and you know, again, Brian,
57:56
Speaker 5: kind of as we just discussed and have discussed a
57:58
Speaker 5: lot in the recent path. Bottom line is we are.
58:03
Speaker 5: And I wanted to say because and then we ran
58:05
Speaker 5: out of time in the last segment from that same
58:07
Speaker 5: site four oh four, in alignment with the ring doorbell
58:11
Speaker 5: search party feature we talked about, here's another headline ties
58:14
Speaker 5: right into this with ring. American consumers built a surveillance dragnet.
58:19
Speaker 5: You know, whether it's flock cameras, it's ring doorbells, it's all.
58:22
Speaker 2: These different.
58:24
Speaker 5: Internet of Things devices that have cameras and potentially microphones.
58:31
Speaker 5: We're adding all this surveillance in and I know the
58:34
Speaker 5: we are on one hand, yes, we are doing it.
58:37
Speaker 5: Businesses are doing it, individuals are doing it. It's not
58:39
Speaker 5: necessarily the government doing it. It's you know, the cost
58:43
Speaker 5: of this equipment has fallen to near zero because it's
58:46
Speaker 5: driven by software. You know, the features can be constantly upgraded,
58:49
Speaker 5: including things like facial recognition.
58:51
Speaker 2: I don't remember if.
58:52
Speaker 5: It was last week or the week before that we
58:54
Speaker 5: talked about the story where a grandma from Tennessee ended
58:57
Speaker 5: up in jail for almost six months because she was
59:00
Speaker 5: wrongly identified for bank frauds by facial recognition and AI.
59:04
Speaker 5: So again, I understand why some folks will argue that
59:08
Speaker 5: these are a good thing. But this technology is moving
59:11
Speaker 5: very quickly. There are plenty of examples out there that
59:14
Speaker 5: shows you how it does not work the way it's
59:17
Speaker 5: intended to work. And or you have this scope creep
59:21
Speaker 5: over time, and yeah, we're basically building an or welling
59:24
Speaker 5: in society of constance surveillance everywhere you go with little
59:29
Speaker 5: regard to the potential consequences of it. Again, you know,
59:34
Speaker 5: if you are, let's say, at a local retail establishment
59:38
Speaker 5: and some AI camera from one of these things picks
59:41
Speaker 5: you up, and next thing you know, you're getting arrested
59:43
Speaker 5: because it has wrongly identified you. Even if you're ultimately
59:46
Speaker 5: cleared of all charges, Well, what is the impact on
59:49
Speaker 5: you as a person. Yeah that that grandma that went
59:52
Speaker 5: to jail was apparently in jail for almost six months. Apparently,
59:56
Speaker 5: me either, it's crazy. I encourage people, you know, don't
1:00:00
Speaker 5: go look me up and you can find a link
1:00:02
Speaker 5: to that story from a couple of weeks ago. You know, apparently,
1:00:05
Speaker 5: according to the reporting, she lost her home, lost her car,
1:00:08
Speaker 5: lost her dog because she couldn't pay her bills during
1:00:10
Speaker 5: that time. And yeah, I'm sure she'll end up suing
1:00:12
Speaker 5: and getting a large settlement out of that. But again,
1:00:15
Speaker 5: all of this bad things happened along the way. You know,
1:00:20
Speaker 5: we really need to think about the societal impact of
1:00:23
Speaker 5: all this stuff.
1:00:23
Speaker 1: Well, how about National Security Day. Let's just interject this
1:00:26
Speaker 1: because you know, the Chinese companiest party know the nefarious
1:00:29
Speaker 1: actors be able to hack into these things because these
1:00:31
Speaker 1: things are well have holes in their security. You point
1:00:33
Speaker 1: this out all the time, you did in the last segment.
1:00:35
Speaker 2: Yep.
1:00:35
Speaker 1: So if you got that, you have this nest of
1:00:37
Speaker 1: cameras all over on the ground reflecting real time what's
1:00:40
Speaker 1: going on in any given neighborhood anywhere in the United States.
1:00:43
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be helpful to a foreign adversary who's considering
1:00:46
Speaker 1: invading or otherwise, you know, militarily attacking a country. I
1:00:49
Speaker 1: would think well with.
1:00:51
Speaker 5: Brian, and there's demonstrative evidence of that. Yes, you know,
1:00:55
Speaker 5: there's reporting that before the attacks were launched on Iran,
1:01:00
Speaker 5: their security cameras were hacked.
1:01:02
Speaker 2: Russia has done this to Ukraine.
1:01:04
Speaker 5: And the more of this technology we put out there,
1:01:07
Speaker 5: whether it's you know, video cameras and cars, it's these
1:01:12
Speaker 5: roving cameras on wheels things, it's you know, consumer oriented.
1:01:17
Speaker 2: Devices like this.
1:01:18
Speaker 5: Yes, they can be hacked. You can guarantee it, even
1:01:21
Speaker 5: if the company is putting out perfect software, which I
1:01:23
Speaker 5: guarantee you they're not. Most of this stuff comes from China,
1:01:26
Speaker 5: but it might have backdoors in it to begin with.
1:01:29
Speaker 5: People don't know how to set this stuff up right,
1:01:31
Speaker 5: they have bad password.
1:01:33
Speaker 1: How about a law, dame, you know me, I don't
1:01:34
Speaker 1: like laws, but how about if you have something like that,
1:01:37
Speaker 1: you must provide upfront a disclosure that this stuff is
1:01:40
Speaker 1: automatically working and what it does and what it means
1:01:42
Speaker 1: to you, and specific detailed instructions designed for a second
1:01:47
Speaker 1: grader to turn it off or otherwise set things up.
1:01:50
Speaker 1: Simple solution, easily addressed and provides more information for the
1:01:53
Speaker 1: customers so they can make an informed decision.
1:01:55
Speaker 5: And you know, Brian, I'm genly with you on the
1:01:57
Speaker 5: less laws or better, but I would take yours even
1:02:00
Speaker 5: a step further and say these things should come configured
1:02:04
Speaker 5: by default to do basically nothing.
1:02:06
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll in the security world that the.
1:02:10
Speaker 5: Idea is principle of least privilege, don't you know, lock
1:02:14
Speaker 5: things down, don't allow people to do things you don't
1:02:16
Speaker 5: want them to do, and then if they need that
1:02:19
Speaker 5: capability at some future point, then you allow it after
1:02:22
Speaker 5: there's been a discussion and it's documented, right, you know,
1:02:25
Speaker 5: denied by default, allow by exception, turn all this stuff
1:02:29
Speaker 5: off and make people go in and turn it on
1:02:32
Speaker 5: if they want it and understand it.
1:02:34
Speaker 1: So easy to accomplish. Problem completely solved right here in
1:02:37
Speaker 1: the fifty five CARSC Morning Show, We're gonna do one
1:02:39
Speaker 1: more than interest I t s. Dave had Er update
1:02:42
Speaker 1: your iPhone, says Dave Hatter, and apparently iPhones too, So
1:02:45
Speaker 1: don't go away, Chris cross Country Mortgage. Do's that look?
1:02:49
Speaker 2: Yeah?
1:02:49
Speaker 1: Six fifty two fifty five KRCD Talk Station Tech Pardidave Hatter,
1:02:52
Speaker 1: interest it dot Com and it's time to upgrade your
1:02:56
Speaker 1: iPhone apparently. I just texted my daughter over the break
1:02:58
Speaker 1: because she's got one. I said, update your iPhone apparently.
1:03:01
Speaker 1: Thirty seven fixes for security holes. This illustrates your point.
1:03:05
Speaker 1: You think of all the companies in the world, Apple
1:03:07
Speaker 1: would have security all worked out before they issue some
1:03:10
Speaker 1: sort of software. But no, Low and Behold, they discover
1:03:12
Speaker 1: problems after the fact.
1:03:15
Speaker 5: Yes, Brian, So again, as a guy who wrote software
1:03:19
Speaker 5: or businesses for over twenty five years, hundreds of different
1:03:22
Speaker 5: applications for hundreds of different businesses, I created all kinds
1:03:26
Speaker 5: of bugs, never on purpose. Plus, I will tell you
1:03:30
Speaker 5: I'm using other people's software to write my software. True,
1:03:33
Speaker 5: might be Microsoft sql server and Microsoft dot Net. Okay,
1:03:37
Speaker 5: the dot net software for Microsoft has bugs in it.
1:03:40
Speaker 5: The sql server software has bugs in it, So there's
1:03:42
Speaker 5: bugs I'm creating on top of their bugs. The Windows
1:03:45
Speaker 5: operating system has bugs in it. Right, These things have
1:03:48
Speaker 5: to be fixed, okay. And the more software you have,
1:03:52
Speaker 5: the more bugs there are. Because human beings create this stuff.
1:03:56
Speaker 5: They're not doing this on purpose most of the time. Now,
1:03:58
Speaker 5: if something is coming from China and I want to
1:04:00
Speaker 5: circle over to that and tie these two things together,
1:04:04
Speaker 5: this is why people like me are constantly harping.
1:04:06
Speaker 2: And it's not just people like me, it's the FBI.
1:04:09
Speaker 5: It's DHS, its Microsoft, Google constantly saying you have to
1:04:13
Speaker 5: keep your software updated. Center for Internet Security. All of
1:04:17
Speaker 5: these different organizations that have skin in the game of
1:04:19
Speaker 5: trying to protect you as a consumer, protect businesses, protect governments,
1:04:23
Speaker 5: protect our society are constantly warning about solfware updates. So yes,
1:04:27
Speaker 5: this latest story here Apple puts out updates. I encourage
1:04:32
Speaker 5: people as soon as you can, you should install the
1:04:35
Speaker 5: updates on your devices or smart devices, your phones, your computers, whatever,
1:04:39
Speaker 5: your car, because you know, sometimes it's adding functionality or
1:04:43
Speaker 5: fixing problems with functionality, but in many cases, and as
1:04:46
Speaker 5: our society becomes increasingly dependent on this, it's solving problems
1:04:50
Speaker 5: that allow hackers to do bad things. So I know
1:04:53
Speaker 5: we'll run out of time and maybe we hit this
1:04:54
Speaker 5: one again next week. This is so important. Federal Bureau
1:04:58
Speaker 5: of Investigations Public Service and now just this week headline
1:05:02
Speaker 5: data security risks of using foreign developed mobile apps in
1:05:06
Speaker 5: the United States.
1:05:09
Speaker 2: FBI. So again, Now, obviously Apple is.
1:05:11
Speaker 5: An American company, but you know, people are downloading apps
1:05:15
Speaker 5: to their phones, to their computers coming from all over
1:05:18
Speaker 5: the place, in many cases China. So I'm just going
1:05:20
Speaker 5: to hit the high points before we run out of time.
1:05:23
Speaker 5: This PSA, which I'll post today so people can read
1:05:26
Speaker 5: it for themselves. As early as of early twenty twenty six,
1:05:30
Speaker 5: many of the most downloaded, top grossing apps in the
1:05:33
Speaker 5: United States are developed and maintained by foreign companies, particularly
1:05:36
Speaker 5: those based in China. The apps to maintain digital infrastructure
1:05:39
Speaker 5: in China are subject to China's extensive national security laws,
1:05:42
Speaker 5: enabling the Chinese government to potentially access mobile apps user data.
1:05:47
Speaker 5: And then it's got a lot of details with tips
1:05:50
Speaker 5: and so forth. But again, this isn't doomsday Dave Hatter
1:05:53
Speaker 5: warning you about this. Here's the FBI telling you.
1:05:56
Speaker 2: Now. I've been saying this for a long time.
1:05:58
Speaker 5: I only have on very lockdown, very updated Apple phone
1:06:03
Speaker 5: a very small number of apps that didn't come on
1:06:05
Speaker 5: the phone, mostly stuff from Microsoft that I need to
1:06:08
Speaker 5: do my job. I have a few others on there.
1:06:11
Speaker 5: I have a very small number of apps, and I
1:06:14
Speaker 5: update them constantly. My phone is as lockdown as it
1:06:17
Speaker 5: can be and still do what I needed to do.
1:06:21
Speaker 5: This is what the FBI is telling you, right, and
1:06:23
Speaker 5: you know, if something is coming from China, we maybe
1:06:27
Speaker 5: hit this one next week. You know, the FCC just
1:06:29
Speaker 5: came out now and banned going forward all these low
1:06:33
Speaker 5: end home grade routers coming from China, right because you
1:06:37
Speaker 5: know there is security risk. I'm glad to see that
1:06:40
Speaker 5: we're finally starting to try to put the word out
1:06:42
Speaker 5: and take this seriously.
1:06:43
Speaker 2: And you know that causes problems. It's a supply chain issue.
1:06:46
Speaker 2: I get that.
1:06:47
Speaker 5: But as more and more things become digital, it's more
1:06:50
Speaker 5: and more of your data flows through these apps and
1:06:52
Speaker 5: these systems in this hardware. We keep seeing examples where
1:06:56
Speaker 5: foreign adversaries in other wars and so forth are manipulating this.
1:07:00
Speaker 5: Imagine for a second, Brian, if at some point a
1:07:04
Speaker 5: adversary flipped the switch and just turned all this off,
1:07:06
Speaker 5: what happened in this country.
1:07:08
Speaker 1: I know, it's so scary when you think about it,
1:07:10
Speaker 1: it just would be God I mean, existential crisis time.
1:07:15
Speaker 1: I really is. So if the electricity goes off, we
1:07:17
Speaker 1: are all collectively screwed. We can end on that real
1:07:20
Speaker 1: positive note. Tech Friday, Dave Hatter, Happy Good Friday, Happy
1:07:23
Speaker 1: Easter to you and your family, Dave, I thank you
1:07:25
Speaker 1: and interest I for sponsoring the segment. Important it is
1:07:28
Speaker 1: find him online LinkedIn dot com, LinkedIn dot com, get
1:07:32
Speaker 1: all the articles and all the background information. Dave God,
1:07:34
Speaker 1: bless you, sir, Thank you. We'll talk next Friday. Have
1:07:36
Speaker 1: a wonderful week between now and then six point fifty
1:07:40
Speaker 1: still twenty three. It's seven oh five, and a happy
1:07:56
Speaker 1: Friday to you. Good Friday. It's a good, happy Friday.
1:07:59
Speaker 2: Brian.
1:08:00
Speaker 1: Oh, this is so awesome for a Friday for me,
1:08:01
Speaker 1: because you know, it's a great day to move away
1:08:03
Speaker 1: from politics, because we're all gonna die. The world's falling apart. Okay,
1:08:06
Speaker 1: we all not, but we can still take care of
1:08:08
Speaker 1: our health. One thing that we know we have. If
1:08:10
Speaker 1: you are alive and listening, you've got life and you
1:08:12
Speaker 1: should probably take some stock in it. And I hear
1:08:14
Speaker 1: from Keith, George Brunhaan and Keith Tennefeld all the time.
1:08:17
Speaker 1: You know about things that I can do to improve
1:08:19
Speaker 1: my life, some of which I have actually I've listened
1:08:22
Speaker 1: to them, and others I have been putting off, like exercise.
1:08:25
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about that day from Restore Wellness
1:08:28
Speaker 1: dot Org. George Brunman and Keith Tennefeld in studio again.
1:08:31
Speaker 1: It's great seeing you guys. Have been thinking about you
1:08:33
Speaker 1: have late, really looking forward to another top or another
1:08:35
Speaker 1: discussion with you. So perfect to have you in today
1:08:38
Speaker 1: and have you been around. Thanks for having us. A
1:08:40
Speaker 1: good morning, Bryan, and we're gonna talking about a friday
1:08:42
Speaker 1: of things today, like for example, let's start with where
1:08:47
Speaker 1: do I start. You know, we came in Keith. The
1:08:49
Speaker 1: first thing you asked me was that hydration right? And
1:08:52
Speaker 1: you know, I hear various comments about how much you're
1:08:55
Speaker 1: supposed to drink today in terms of liquids, but everyone
1:08:58
Speaker 1: seems to be uniformally in agreement that hydration is really good.
1:09:02
Speaker 1: And one of the things that I've read when I
1:09:04
Speaker 1: went on my diet it'll be two years in October,
1:09:06
Speaker 1: that you know, if you're feeling hungry during the day
1:09:09
Speaker 1: and you are trying to mind your calorie intake, that
1:09:11
Speaker 1: drinking a big glass of water or perhaps some other
1:09:14
Speaker 1: beverage is a great way to make you feel a
1:09:17
Speaker 1: little bit more full and obviously avoid the calories that
1:09:19
Speaker 1: go along with snacking. I think it's the number one
1:09:21
Speaker 1: cause of why people are tired.
1:09:23
Speaker 9: They haven't had enough water, really, and they get into
1:09:25
Speaker 9: this coffee water cycle where I'll just drink coffee instead
1:09:27
Speaker 9: of water because it's cozy and warm, and next you know,
1:09:30
Speaker 9: they dehydrate themselves even.
1:09:31
Speaker 1: Further, caffeine dehydrate you.
1:09:32
Speaker 9: Yeah, so that's why ioretic, right, And so if you
1:09:36
Speaker 9: can get out of those habits, you know, show me
1:09:37
Speaker 9: your habits, I'll show you your life, and you just
1:09:39
Speaker 9: start really really focusing on hydration. You'll have a more
1:09:42
Speaker 9: consistent energy throughout the day and you won't have your dip,
1:09:44
Speaker 9: especially mid afternoon. And it's dilution of the pollution is
1:09:48
Speaker 9: a solution. So you're going to benefit your kidney and
1:09:50
Speaker 9: your liver and everything else there too. So why not
1:09:53
Speaker 9: do hydration? You know, and good clean filtered water, Good
1:09:56
Speaker 9: clean filtered water. No sense of drinking tap water, no
1:09:58
Speaker 9: sense of drinking the standard plastic bottled water because there's
1:10:01
Speaker 9: a lot of bf AC's and all that unhealthy stuff.
1:10:04
Speaker 10: We've all gone to the point where we when we
1:10:06
Speaker 10: go on vacation, if we're driving, we've got a filter
1:10:09
Speaker 10: we take with us. It gets rid of chlorine, fluoride o,
1:10:12
Speaker 10: caaculus everything. The water tastes infinitely better than the bottle.
1:10:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, And I was gonna interject that because underneath
1:10:20
Speaker 1: the kitchen sink, because we don't have a whole house
1:10:22
Speaker 1: filtration system, which can be rather costly. I mean, if
1:10:24
Speaker 1: you want to go down that road, that's fine. All
1:10:26
Speaker 1: the taps in the house will be covered. But the
1:10:28
Speaker 1: primary use for drinking water, of course, the kitchen sink.
1:10:31
Speaker 1: We're always in there. We've got the dispenser from the refrigerator,
1:10:34
Speaker 1: which has its own separate filter, but I put a
1:10:36
Speaker 1: higher end. It's a three filter system I got off
1:10:39
Speaker 1: of Amazon. It was affordable, I mean, got one hundred
1:10:43
Speaker 1: and fifty bucks or whatever, which I consider affordable. And
1:10:45
Speaker 1: the filters last for about a year or more, so
1:10:48
Speaker 1: they're not costly to replace. But the water, oh my god,
1:10:51
Speaker 1: it tastes so much better, and it gets a lot out.
1:10:54
Speaker 1: It's ninety nine point nine nine percent of really everything.
1:10:57
Speaker 10: We did the same trick as you did, except I
1:10:58
Speaker 10: put it on the I put it in in the
1:11:00
Speaker 10: basement on the line that goes to the refrigerator, all
1:11:02
Speaker 10: of the ice, all of the water the refrigerator, and
1:11:05
Speaker 10: then we just fill everything from that. But the key
1:11:08
Speaker 10: is getting one that make sure you get rid of
1:11:10
Speaker 10: the chlorine and the fluoride, right, And you said, and
1:11:12
Speaker 10: you can taste it. I mean it's a big difference
1:11:14
Speaker 10: or taste. You don't taste anything. That's which is the
1:11:16
Speaker 10: best part of it.
1:11:17
Speaker 1: Two. And I like it so much that I just
1:11:19
Speaker 1: told matter of fact, I told Paul ut yesterday, I
1:11:21
Speaker 1: was thinking about getting one of those independent, you know,
1:11:24
Speaker 1: per faucet filters for the bathroom because bathroom water doesn't
1:11:29
Speaker 1: taste good. When you're used to drinking the clean water
1:11:31
Speaker 1: and you go to one of the taps that doesn't
1:11:32
Speaker 1: have it, you're like, oh god, what is in this?
1:11:34
Speaker 10: If you go to Orlando, it's like, man, you could
1:11:37
Speaker 10: taste the salt chlora. It's horrible. So once you started,
1:11:42
Speaker 10: you realize how dirty the water was. Okay, how much
1:11:44
Speaker 10: should we be drinking a day? Is it based on
1:11:47
Speaker 10: how you feel? Is it there's a recommended you know
1:11:49
Speaker 10: per per you know, there's three cords.
1:11:51
Speaker 9: The first start of that is that half your body
1:11:53
Speaker 9: weight ounces, So if you're two hundred pounds, you're roughly
1:11:56
Speaker 9: around one hundred ounces a day. And then also looking
1:11:58
Speaker 9: at your urine, is it clear and is it copious?
1:12:01
Speaker 9: If it's not, if it's dark or yellow, and you're
1:12:04
Speaker 9: not really peeing a lot, then that means you need
1:12:05
Speaker 9: more water, regardless how much you've taken in that day,
1:12:07
Speaker 9: because you could be in a water deficit from caffeine
1:12:10
Speaker 9: use or exercise or sweating. So really keep your urine
1:12:13
Speaker 9: clear and copious. That's your gauge that you've got to
1:12:16
Speaker 9: you know, doing really really good job, but obviously increases
1:12:19
Speaker 9: during heat or sweat. And the other benefit of this,
1:12:23
Speaker 9: well I'm not benefit, but but biohack is wake up
1:12:26
Speaker 9: in the morning and the first thing you do is
1:12:27
Speaker 9: you drink water. Drink eight ounces at least.
1:12:30
Speaker 1: Oh I do what? Yeah, because you spent eight to
1:12:32
Speaker 1: ten hours doing no water drinking because you were sleeping.
1:12:35
Speaker 1: I got this bottle I'm showing you. I carry this
1:12:37
Speaker 1: wherever I go, a thermos bottle. I think it's a
1:12:40
Speaker 1: quart I don't know, but I have it on my
1:12:43
Speaker 1: bedside overnight. I fill it up every night before we
1:12:45
Speaker 1: go to bed, and I get thirsty at night, I'll
1:12:48
Speaker 1: take a big drink of water. I wake up in
1:12:49
Speaker 1: the morning, I'll drain the rest of whatever it is.
1:12:51
Speaker 1: So I'm glad you said about eight outs because that's
1:12:53
Speaker 1: all that's really left about time. I wake up in
1:12:55
Speaker 1: the morning, Well, what do you fill it with? My
1:12:57
Speaker 1: Green Team mix that I told you about off air,
1:13:00
Speaker 1: which I absolutely love if you don't like drinking just water.
1:13:03
Speaker 1: And I know there's a caffeine component in green tea,
1:13:05
Speaker 1: although you can get decaffeinated, but I pretty much have
1:13:09
Speaker 1: quit drinking coffee in favor of the coal. I like
1:13:12
Speaker 1: coal beverages and listening to you guys, and I'm gonna
1:13:15
Speaker 1: give you both credit for this because you talked about
1:13:19
Speaker 1: a dilution of the pollution is my go to default
1:13:23
Speaker 1: hydration in the morning. For several years, was drinking those
1:13:28
Speaker 1: zero calorie energy drinks, which have all kinds of crap.
1:13:31
Speaker 1: I knew I was gonna get respond from about that
1:13:33
Speaker 1: if you read the label. I was drinking those things
1:13:37
Speaker 1: couple plus a day for several years, and I look
1:13:40
Speaker 1: back on like, oh my god. Not only were they
1:13:42
Speaker 1: really expensive, I mean every week we go to the
1:13:44
Speaker 1: Kroger two dollars and fifty cents a pop for these
1:13:47
Speaker 1: sixteen hours.
1:13:48
Speaker 10: When you read the ingredient listens like industrials.
1:13:52
Speaker 1: This is why I'm crediting you guys. I've never bothered
1:13:55
Speaker 1: to really focus on it, but when you look at
1:13:56
Speaker 1: what's in there. You think, well, it's got caffeine, it's
1:13:58
Speaker 1: got garna. It's this that's waking you up. Plus it
1:14:01
Speaker 1: doesn't have sugar in it, which is what I was
1:14:03
Speaker 1: hanging my hat on. But with that comes, you know,
1:14:06
Speaker 1: like from aldehyde or something. I don't know what's in there,
1:14:08
Speaker 1: but don't drink it. That's why I pivoted it over
1:14:10
Speaker 1: to the green tea. I make it at home, two
1:14:12
Speaker 1: quarts a day. It's got three ingredients. That's like you said, tea,
1:14:15
Speaker 1: honey and water. Right, you look at that zero calorie thing,
1:14:19
Speaker 1: it's got like twenty of them. Most of bleach you
1:14:21
Speaker 1: can't pronounce. It's true. And even if it's an artificial sweetener,
1:14:25
Speaker 1: it's an artificial sweetener. So Keith and George, you guys
1:14:27
Speaker 1: are the ones that said sweetened with honey, because while
1:14:31
Speaker 1: it does have natural sugar in it, it also comes
1:14:33
Speaker 1: with some health benefits like allergies if you drink if
1:14:37
Speaker 1: you use local, local honey, you'll get that tangential benefit.
1:14:42
Speaker 1: I don't know is there any other benefit of consuming honey.
1:14:44
Speaker 1: Vitamin bees are very very good in that situation. Not
1:14:46
Speaker 1: to mention you're supporting your local Farmers, which is another
1:14:48
Speaker 1: fat thing, right, you know green tea. That's talk about
1:14:51
Speaker 1: green tea. I'm gonna make green tea drinkers out of
1:14:53
Speaker 1: all your listeners. I love it coffee.
1:14:56
Speaker 9: It increases your quartosol, which increases your insulin resistance, which
1:14:59
Speaker 9: increases your risk for diabetes. No matter if you're putting
1:15:01
Speaker 9: sugar in it or not, you're gonna get all kinds
1:15:03
Speaker 9: of electrolyte and balances because of its diuretic effects. Green
1:15:06
Speaker 9: tea does have caffeine in it about almost the same sometimes,
1:15:09
Speaker 9: but it also lowers your qurtisol. Really yeah, it's got
1:15:12
Speaker 9: a lowering quartosol benefit to it, not to mention profound
1:15:15
Speaker 9: antioxident and benefit, not to mention profound anti cancer benefit.
1:15:19
Speaker 9: So you're winning all around when it's green tea. And
1:15:23
Speaker 9: by the way, you mentioned this earlier about spending money
1:15:25
Speaker 9: on water filters. What other great reason to go and
1:15:29
Speaker 9: make money than to take care of your life while
1:15:31
Speaker 9: you're here on earth, Right, that's really the purpose.
1:15:34
Speaker 1: So spend the money on you. You deserve to spend
1:15:37
Speaker 1: the money on good clean water, good clean green tea,
1:15:40
Speaker 1: get a good organic brand, not you know, something off
1:15:42
Speaker 1: that's just typical shelf. You deserve it. That's why you're
1:15:45
Speaker 1: here to make money so that you can survive the
1:15:47
Speaker 1: best way you can. Well, I don't get any love
1:15:50
Speaker 1: from Tiesta, but the brands that I've been buying for
1:15:53
Speaker 1: these green teas. It starts with green tea and then
1:15:55
Speaker 1: they add dehydrated you know, blueberries or blackberries or you
1:15:59
Speaker 1: know lavish from sources. It's right, it's almost always fine.
1:16:04
Speaker 2: So I went.
1:16:05
Speaker 1: I went to Amazon on that and the other thing
1:16:06
Speaker 1: was one of the greatest Christmas. My daughter has been
1:16:08
Speaker 1: wonderful over the years getting me Christmas presents that I
1:16:11
Speaker 1: remember her by every single day. I have a shaving brush.
1:16:14
Speaker 1: I got one from her, like twenty years ago. That
1:16:16
Speaker 1: one got worn out and fell apart, so I got
1:16:18
Speaker 1: another one. So every morning when i'm shaving, I'm using
1:16:20
Speaker 1: my brush, I'm thinking of my daughter and oh, she's
1:16:22
Speaker 1: so cute and I love her so much. This Christmas
1:16:25
Speaker 1: I got this is how I started drinking green tea
1:16:28
Speaker 1: so much. I was making it, you know, just getting
1:16:31
Speaker 1: a little bit of boil roll boil and boiling it
1:16:33
Speaker 1: and letting it steep and then doing it the way
1:16:34
Speaker 1: you normally make tea. I have this jar she got
1:16:37
Speaker 1: from Amazon. It's a lidd poor jar, two quartz glass,
1:16:41
Speaker 1: kind of like a big Mason jar. Fill it with
1:16:43
Speaker 1: the filtered cold water. I pour my honey in there
1:16:47
Speaker 1: and just I used maybe like three or four four tablespoons.
1:16:51
Speaker 1: It's not a whole lot. And then you gotta whisk
1:16:53
Speaker 1: that up because raw honey mixed in water takes a
1:16:55
Speaker 1: water mix up. See mix that up. And then I
1:16:56
Speaker 1: just dumped the tea mixture right in there, cold water
1:17:00
Speaker 1: with the tea mixture, put the lid on, stick it
1:17:02
Speaker 1: in the fridge, and it basically steeps itself. Takes a
1:17:05
Speaker 1: couple of hours to reach full potency, maybe long. This
1:17:08
Speaker 1: usually sits overnight. I wake up in the morning, it's done.
1:17:10
Speaker 1: I fill the thermous with one quart. I filled my
1:17:13
Speaker 1: court jar here with another, and I'm set. I love
1:17:16
Speaker 1: the flavor of it. And now, thankfully you have told me, Keith,
1:17:19
Speaker 1: that it's giving me more benefits than I even realized.
1:17:23
Speaker 1: Great well, and compared to diet cokes. The energy drink
1:17:29
Speaker 1: went back drank one of those damn things because I
1:17:31
Speaker 1: had two left that I didn't once I quit drinking them.
1:17:34
Speaker 1: They were up there one day I don't know. I
1:17:36
Speaker 1: guess I was out of tear. What I just went
1:17:38
Speaker 1: to grab what the hell? I grabbed it, open it up.
1:17:40
Speaker 1: I drank one drink of it, and I spin it
1:17:42
Speaker 1: out and I poured it out. It tasted so bad
1:17:46
Speaker 1: artificial nasties I used to drink.
1:17:51
Speaker 10: I know, I know, But like you say, you look
1:17:54
Speaker 10: at him and it's like, man, I get a migraine
1:17:55
Speaker 10: when I look at him, just thinking the thought of
1:17:57
Speaker 10: trying to drink one of those.
1:17:58
Speaker 1: But see, that's the trans position. You kind of go
1:18:01
Speaker 1: through something that was so wonderful and you thought was
1:18:04
Speaker 1: doing a great job to wake you up basically, and
1:18:07
Speaker 1: you find out later that, oh, I was just really
1:18:08

Speaker 1: talking issue. At least we're all talking more and more
1:20:47
Speaker 1: about it. The food pyramid ain't anymore. It's all different.
1:20:50
Speaker 1: We're focusing on what's really good for you, truly over
1:20:52
Speaker 1: the year, and you know, and opening ourselves up to
1:20:55
Speaker 1: a papa perhaps a broader understanding of our health and
1:20:58
Speaker 1: how it relates to food. We talked about hydration and
1:21:01
Speaker 1: obviously really important. As Keith and George pointed out in
1:21:04
Speaker 1: the last hour before we move away from liquids. George
1:21:07
Speaker 1: wanted to make sure people are I just want to
1:21:08
Speaker 1: make sure people. One of the big things here is
1:21:11
Speaker 1: how do you get started. I mean everyone has trouble
1:21:13
Speaker 1: doing it. And you just mentioned a great one.
1:21:15
Speaker 10: Swap out the Coca cola and mountain dew that you
1:21:18
Speaker 10: got in your refrigerator for a pot of green tea
1:21:21
Speaker 10: or even you.
1:21:22
Speaker 1: Know, just clean water.
1:21:23
Speaker 10: But if you can start swapping away from you know,
1:21:26
Speaker 10: the chemical laden soft drinks and go to something like
1:21:30
Speaker 10: green tea. That's a great first step and it doesn't
1:21:33
Speaker 10: really cost you much. It's easy to do, but it
1:21:35
Speaker 10: has a really huge benefit. Like you were saying, I mean,
1:21:38
Speaker 10: you know, the thought of drinking a regular coke now
1:21:42
Speaker 10: would just drive you crazy.
1:21:43
Speaker 1: The amount of sugar in it, because since I cut
1:21:45
Speaker 1: sugar out of my diet almost exclusive, I mean across
1:21:48
Speaker 1: the board, with exception of like honey, natural sugar, you
1:21:52
Speaker 1: went through the withdraw period. But if you're focusing on
1:21:55
Speaker 1: elimination of sugar, which you guys will embrace as a
1:21:58
Speaker 1: great health related concept, it's literally everywhere. You got to
1:22:03
Speaker 1: read a laby. It's a simple substitution.
1:22:05
Speaker 10: You're not giving something up, you're switching it. You're switching
1:22:08
Speaker 10: from soft drinks to something more, more healthy and.
1:22:11
Speaker 1: Better for you.
1:22:12
Speaker 10: And we can do this in all in different areas.
1:22:15
Speaker 10: The other question is, you know, how how do you
1:22:17
Speaker 10: swap out for exercise?
1:22:19
Speaker 1: You're gonna go there, Well, and that's that, And I'm
1:22:22
Speaker 1: saying like it's easy, just gotta go ahead and do it,
1:22:24
Speaker 1: Go ahead and do it. You guys have been yelling
1:22:25
Speaker 1: at me about exercise the whole time. So as we're
1:22:27
Speaker 1: talking about eliminating sugar or cutting out the energy drinks
1:22:30
Speaker 1: or quit drinking Coca cola, somebody's listening going, yeah, okay,
1:22:34
Speaker 1: easier said than done.
1:22:35
Speaker 9: All right, So here we go. This is the topic
1:22:38
Speaker 9: that it really just lights me up and I really
1:22:39
Speaker 9: enjoy talking about it. Number one, if you take anything
1:22:41
Speaker 9: from the show, I want you to have this mantra now.
1:22:45
Speaker 9: And the mantra is muscle is medicine. You can come
1:22:51
Speaker 9: off many, many, many different medications if you have muscle.
1:22:54
Speaker 9: The more muscle you have, the less medications you have guaranteed.
1:22:58
Speaker 9: The other benefit of this situation, when it comes act,
1:23:00
Speaker 9: it reduces all cause mortality. What is all causes like diabetes, cancer,
1:23:06
Speaker 9: you know, stroke, all of it. You know, falls, fractures,
1:23:10
Speaker 9: all of those stuff. All cause mortality drops based on
1:23:13
Speaker 9: the more muscle you have. Like, oh that means work, No,
1:23:16
Speaker 9: it means living. Think about it. We have a sit
1:23:18
Speaker 9: down culture today. We don't have an obcity problem in America.
1:23:21
Speaker 9: We have a muscle wasting problem in America. Look at
1:23:24
Speaker 9: the GLP issues right, those are growing leaps and bounds
1:23:28
Speaker 9: and they're wasting a lot of muscle on the process.
1:23:30
Speaker 1: So that's because the GLP ones don't build muscle, they
1:23:33
Speaker 1: just they just cut down on your appetite, and therefore
1:23:35
Speaker 1: you drop pounds and and your body needs those amino
1:23:38
Speaker 1: acids and needs those proteins, and where does it get
1:23:40
Speaker 1: it because you're not eating anymore from muscle. And so
1:23:43
Speaker 1: the question is is you get on these GLP ones
1:23:44
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh great, I feel great, I wonderful,
1:23:46
Speaker 1: and you haven't changed the damn thing about your life.
1:23:49
Speaker 9: Eating the same stuff, just less of it. Yeah, you
1:23:51
Speaker 9: will fall back into the same pattern. Your weight will
1:23:54
Speaker 9: come back, and it'll be all waste of money and
1:23:55
Speaker 9: you will be un healthier at the end. So if
1:23:58
Speaker 9: you're gonna do glps, okay, micro get get your weight
1:24:01
Speaker 9: down so you can start moving a little easier if
1:24:02
Speaker 9: that's your thing. But then you better build up a
1:24:05
Speaker 9: decent routine, a habit that's gonna say I'm gonna live
1:24:07
Speaker 9: this life the best way I can. And you don't
1:24:09
Speaker 9: stop until the day you stop reading.
1:24:11
Speaker 1: So what's the easy let's get started on exercise thing?
1:24:14
Speaker 10: Is it as simple as don't watch television sitting down,
1:24:18
Speaker 10: watch it standing up, or I listened to a podcast
1:24:21
Speaker 10: while you're walking.
1:24:23
Speaker 9: I think the easiest way to do this is the
1:24:25
Speaker 9: number one is to ask your why and say that
1:24:27
Speaker 9: and I this really is profound for me. This is
1:24:30
Speaker 9: your one life, you get to live on this earth,
1:24:35
Speaker 9: and how do you want to live it? Are you
1:24:37
Speaker 9: done feeling miserable? Are you done feeling tired? Are you
1:24:39
Speaker 9: done feeling weak? Are you done worrying about what you're
1:24:42
Speaker 9: what you might break? And the best thing you can
1:24:45
Speaker 9: simply say is all right, fine, I'm gonna just start
1:24:48
Speaker 9: building muscle any way I can. Because there's a lot
1:24:50
Speaker 9: of people who can have to do it differently, Go
1:24:52
Speaker 9: see a trainer. You're worth it again, spend that money
1:24:55
Speaker 9: on you because you are worth it.
1:24:56
Speaker 10: You.
1:24:57
Speaker 1: You deserve to take that money and use it for
1:24:59
Speaker 1: good for you well. Trainer also comes with it a
1:25:02
Speaker 1: measure of discipline, because if you have an appointment with
1:25:04
Speaker 1: a trainer and you're set to do it, you're probably
1:25:07
Speaker 1: more inclined to do it than if you get to
1:25:08
Speaker 1: start watching an old movie on Netflix. Like me, he'll
1:25:11
Speaker 1: sit there and blow through that period of time where
1:25:13
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be actually engaging in something beneficial.
1:25:16
Speaker 9: It does seem to be that I noticed somebody, George,
1:25:20
Speaker 9: tell us about Jimbo and your experience.
1:25:22
Speaker 1: Pause. We'll bring Jimbo back after he Keith hang On
1:25:25
Speaker 1: got to take a quick break. It is seven to

1:27:18
Speaker 1: Quality seven thirty five KC detox station. By the time
1:27:22
Speaker 1: I was talking on air and off air with George
1:27:24
Speaker 1: Renavan and Keith Tennefield about the benefits of well taking
1:27:28
Speaker 1: care of yourself across the board. We started out with
1:27:30
Speaker 1: hydration and drinking the appropriate beverages and staying away for
1:27:34
Speaker 1: the ones with all the crap in them. I get
1:27:35
Speaker 1: that all day long, and now we're talking about exercise
1:27:38
Speaker 1: getting motivated the benefits of exercise. Muscle mass is critically important,
1:27:42
Speaker 1: says Keith, because that will keep you out of all
1:27:44
Speaker 1: kinds of health troubles. Just building up the muscle mass
1:27:47
Speaker 1: though a great point on that. But as we're going
1:27:50
Speaker 1: to break, George was getting ready to dive into a
1:27:52
Speaker 1: story about Jimbo.
1:27:54
Speaker 10: What I've passed that on Harrison Avenue and on the
1:27:58
Speaker 10: West Side for years and years, and we finally walked inside.
1:28:02
Speaker 10: So the thing with exercise is, over the years, you know,
1:28:05
Speaker 10: we worked out with a trainer once a week or so, right,
1:28:08
Speaker 10: and we had the full complement of the weights in
1:28:11
Speaker 10: the basement, but getting there on the off days just
1:28:13
Speaker 10: never seemed to work. So January this year, my wife
1:28:17
Speaker 10: and I decided this is the year we're gonna do
1:28:19
Speaker 10: something different.
1:28:20
Speaker 1: Let's go see Jimbo, and we had talked to him.
1:28:24
Speaker 10: He's a couple of podcasts, he's a he's a trainer,
1:28:26
Speaker 10: he's a bodybuilder, and he's got the classic you know,
1:28:30
Speaker 10: jim When you think of a gym from the seventies,
1:28:32
Speaker 10: you think of Jimbo's. Yeah, so we go in regular
1:28:35
Speaker 10: Joe's gym, regular Joe's and very few electric machines. But
1:28:40
Speaker 10: the thing is it gives you someone who's always watching there.
1:28:44
Speaker 10: You've got appointments. Yeah, you have to pay for it
1:28:47
Speaker 10: versus going downstairs and using your weights, but the fact
1:28:50
Speaker 10: that there's somebody there and you've made a comitment nine.
1:28:53
Speaker 1: O'clock, it's the commitment. It's the appointment. It's like meeting
1:28:55
Speaker 1: somebody for lunch. You may have fired up for it,
1:28:58
Speaker 1: but you made the appointment two weeks ago, and you're
1:29:00
Speaker 1: to honor your commitment by show money for it, right.
1:29:03
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:29:03
Speaker 1: So we've been doing that since January and the results
1:29:07
Speaker 1: are amazing.
1:29:08
Speaker 10: Actually, I mean we're up to going now five days
1:29:11
Speaker 10: a week because it's having an effect. The key thing
1:29:15
Speaker 10: we noticed is as we walked into the building, for
1:29:17
Speaker 10: the very first time. An eighty five year old man
1:29:20
Speaker 10: was coming out and he said, oh, is this your
1:29:22
Speaker 10: first time? I've been coming here for like twenty years now.
1:29:25
Speaker 10: It was amazing.
1:29:26
Speaker 1: And and you go in the gym.
1:29:27
Speaker 10: Yeah, a third of the people look like bodybuilders. Another
1:29:30
Speaker 10: third or you know, people that aren't too bad. It
1:29:33
Speaker 10: looks like they're getting getting in shape, right. The last
1:29:36
Speaker 10: third are people like us. You know, they're they're overweight,
1:29:39
Speaker 10: they're older. There's a woman that comes in now in
1:29:41
Speaker 10: a walker with an oxygen mask, an oxygen on her.
1:29:45
Speaker 10: She'll work out for twenty minutes, go into hyperbaric chamber.
1:29:48
Speaker 10: But I mean the first time she showed up, you
1:29:51
Speaker 10: can see the smile on her face. It was amazing.
1:29:54
Speaker 10: And so the whole idea is having somebody like Jim
1:29:57
Speaker 10: that can push you to do the exercise.
1:29:59
Speaker 1: Also us where you are on the spectrum in terms
1:30:02
Speaker 1: of where you should exercise, and how like if I
1:30:04
Speaker 1: walked in, somebody may presume, oh, he looks like he's
1:30:07
Speaker 1: in reasonably good shape. You can handle it. No, you
1:30:09
Speaker 1: put me on a treadmill, I'm gonna have a heart
1:30:11
Speaker 1: attack within five minutes. I'm dying. I am going to
1:30:13
Speaker 1: be crumpled up in a pilot. He's fighting ways to
1:30:16
Speaker 1: make us. So yesterday was a bit tough. We had
1:30:19
Speaker 1: to do step ups for the first time. You're getting it.
1:30:22
Speaker 1: You're getting in five days a week, George, I don't
1:30:24
Speaker 1: know what to say. I have to start up with
1:30:26
Speaker 1: maybe one day a week or something just to get
1:30:28
Speaker 1: into it, or maybe two.
1:30:29
Speaker 10: I would definitely recommend doing it more than once, because
1:30:33
Speaker 10: once makes it, you forgot about it by the time
1:30:35
Speaker 10: you do it. So we walk in there now and
1:30:37
Speaker 10: it's like it's only an hour. We can make an
1:30:39
Speaker 10: hour and you come out. It's like you feel better
1:30:41
Speaker 10: when you walk out and you've lost pounds and inches.
1:30:43
Speaker 10: I mean, you looks down seventeen pounds in the last
1:30:46
Speaker 10: three months.
1:30:47
Speaker 1: That's amazing.
1:30:48
Speaker 10: The other is weight loss that's not GLP weight loss.
1:30:51
Speaker 10: That's note, it's not anything else. And the other benefit
1:30:53
Speaker 10: that's kind of weird, especially for a guy. It used
1:30:56
Speaker 10: to be the day after you work out. I call
1:30:57
Speaker 10: it the Superman feeling. You can tell the muscles you worked.
1:31:00
Speaker 10: You feel that that super ball gym. I feel like
1:31:03
Speaker 10: it all the time everywhere. It's really interesting. We talked
1:31:08
Speaker 10: about exercise and We've been talking about this for a year.
1:31:11
Speaker 10: It took us until January to finally say, Okay, we're
1:31:13
Speaker 10: going to commit to this. And and that's the hard
1:31:16
Speaker 10: part is you got to finally say, Okay, this looks
1:31:19
Speaker 10: like it's been helping, but we haven't been doing it right.
1:31:22
Speaker 10: What does it take to push you to the next
1:31:24
Speaker 10: step and just commit?
1:31:25
Speaker 1: Are you are you retired? I am reach oed Okay,
1:31:28
Speaker 1: my wife this year a lot of flexibility. I have
1:31:31
Speaker 1: the goofy schedule that gives me the same amount of flexibility.
1:31:34
Speaker 1: I'm free most days between nine and when I go
1:31:36
Speaker 1: to bed. You it's your job to do this stuff, Keith,
1:31:40
Speaker 1: So you're you're surrounded by this all the time. So
1:31:43
Speaker 1: we're we're in a unique position to really do this
1:31:47
Speaker 1: formal you know, appointment schedule and all that. You know, John,
1:31:50
Speaker 1: just thinking about the thirty five year old woman or man.
1:31:52
Speaker 1: They got two kids at home, they got a household
1:31:54
Speaker 1: to run, They go to work every day, they come home,
1:31:56
Speaker 1: then there's select soccer, there's baseball. You know, they got
1:32:00
Speaker 1: to exhale at some point, I guess, I mean, how
1:32:03
Speaker 1: do you squeeze in this time when you have that
1:32:05
Speaker 1: kind of busy line.
1:32:06
Speaker 9: One thing that Jimbo taught me. This is a fantastic line.
1:32:10
Speaker 9: He says, people can afford their priorities. Time is an
1:32:15
Speaker 9: affordable comedy. You know, you have to you have to
1:32:18
Speaker 9: make that priority.
1:32:19
Speaker 1: So rather than sit down and unwind watching another episode
1:32:24
Speaker 1: of your favorite binge flick on Netflix, use that time
1:32:27
Speaker 1: to exercise.
1:32:28
Speaker 9: Or take a pit stop an hour, you know, on
1:32:30
Speaker 9: your way to and from work. Whatever works. I'm a
1:32:32
Speaker 9: night guy. When once my kids go to bed, I
1:32:34
Speaker 9: go to the gym, you know, so I find my time.
1:32:37
Speaker 9: I could be doing the same thing watching TV at
1:32:38
Speaker 9: that time.
1:32:39
Speaker 2: No, I go to the gym.
1:32:40
Speaker 10: So you just find that spot of time and make
1:32:43
Speaker 10: it yours because you deserve it. Or watch TV on
1:32:46
Speaker 10: a treadmill. It's not that tough, any It's true. Or
1:32:48
Speaker 10: you know what I used to do is yoga on
1:32:49
Speaker 10: the floor when I was watching TV. I mean core strength.
1:32:53
Speaker 10: I you know, I gotta get maybe I actually start there.
1:32:56
Speaker 10: It's just start there. You gotta find the easy place
1:32:58
Speaker 10: to start to get. The exuragement to take is that
1:33:00
Speaker 10: I'm familiar with that. I know what's gonna I know
1:33:02
Speaker 10: the benefit I'm going to get from it. Because I
1:33:04
Speaker 10: used to get it. So maybe you need tonight. There's
1:33:07
Speaker 10: a shot right there. If you don't want to get home,
1:33:08
Speaker 10: who knows you can? My wife is listening's going to
1:33:11
Speaker 10: get trained in. So much trouble, So much trouble, don't
1:33:16
Speaker 10: we got George and Keith wouldn't call it trouble.
1:33:19
Speaker 1: They'd be looking fine. Light of fire under his butt.
1:33:21
Speaker 1: Paul Atte, don't go away. We got more to talk
1:33:23
Speaker 1: about coming up. And uh, George McGill's going to join
1:33:26
Speaker 1: us after the top of our news. End of the road,
1:33:28

1:36:13
Speaker 1: Lord Almighty, what a great gift. Good for oxytocin, good
1:36:16
Speaker 1: for cardio, you know the benefits. Just keep going. Yeah, okay,
1:36:21
Speaker 1: well that's enough set on that, I suppose anyway, Yeah,
1:36:23
Speaker 1: keep working at it. They can't put that in a
1:36:25
Speaker 1: pill though they're trying. No, come on, the whole the
1:36:30
Speaker 1: whole process has just got no downside to it at all.
1:36:33
Speaker 1: If you're the right person, I'm gonna stay. If you
1:36:34
Speaker 1: don't like the person you're married to, that it might suck.
1:36:37
Speaker 1: But maybe if you're not having good sex, that's one
1:36:39
Speaker 1: of the reasons you don't like the person you're married to.
1:36:41
Speaker 1: So let's work on that. Keith and George say, it's
1:36:44
Speaker 1: really really good for you, so callish your skills. Hone
1:36:47
Speaker 1: it up, you know, make some time for it each
1:36:49
Speaker 1: and every week, if not each and every day. Yeah,
1:36:52
Speaker 1: very good, love it all right, Moving away from that,
1:36:54
Speaker 1: talking about sleep, we haven't talked about sleep yet, and
1:36:56
Speaker 1: I know that's one of the topics we wanted to
1:36:57
Speaker 1: get to. It usually happens after second after sing right, Yeah,
1:37:00
Speaker 1: nobody's smoking anymore, so when I just go ahead and
1:37:03
Speaker 1: get into good night's sleep afterwards. But sleep is really important,
1:37:06
Speaker 1: that's right.
1:37:07
Speaker 10: So one of the things that was interesting about when
1:37:09
Speaker 10: we started doing the exercise was Jim gave you the
1:37:13
Speaker 10: explanation of you do the weight training to destroy things.
1:37:18
Speaker 10: You're breaking down the muscle and it's when it regrows
1:37:21
Speaker 10: that you actually gain more muscle. And the way it
1:37:24
Speaker 10: regrows is when you sleep. So if you're working out
1:37:28
Speaker 10: and really pushing yourself hard, but then you don't get
1:37:30
Speaker 10: any sleep, you're going to feel horrible the next day
1:37:33
Speaker 10: and you're not getting the repair.
1:37:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, he awes at me for that. So sleep is
1:37:39
Speaker 1: like the secret to everything.
1:37:40
Speaker 10: But when you talk about exercise and not being able
1:37:43
Speaker 10: to do that, sleep was always my achilles heel when
1:37:46
Speaker 10: when my consulting company was going full bore, I would
1:37:49
Speaker 10: work you know, fifteen sixteen hours a day, and then
1:37:53
Speaker 10: whatever is left I would try and sleep, and try and.
1:37:55
Speaker 1: Sleep, and let me ask the problems of the day.
1:37:58
Speaker 1: The things you did, you didn't do, what you said
1:38:00
Speaker 1: and say come flying through your head at the worst
1:38:02
Speaker 1: possible moment in time, when you're trying to get sleep.
1:38:05
Speaker 1: I used to struggle with that. I mean, you have
1:38:08
Speaker 1: no idea how anxiety inducing it is getting up and
1:38:11
Speaker 1: talking for four hours on the radio. And know this
1:38:13
Speaker 1: is twenty years in December, but there's never been a
1:38:15
Speaker 1: day that goes by that I haven't struggled with some
1:38:17
Speaker 1: measure of anxiety over this. It used to impact my
1:38:20
Speaker 1: sleep because I'd worry, like, how am I going to
1:38:22
Speaker 1: fill the time? What am I gonna talk about? You
1:38:23
Speaker 1: know I'd worked on that before I put to bed,
1:38:25
Speaker 1: but you know, it's still worried. I started a process
1:38:28
Speaker 1: and I always I've said this before, and I think
1:38:30
Speaker 1: it's been so beneficial for me for anybody that struggles
1:38:32
Speaker 1: with those first thing you lay down, that kind of
1:38:35
Speaker 1: thing starts going through your head. Remind yourself that there
1:38:38
Speaker 1: is not a damn thing in the world, all those
1:38:41
Speaker 1: thoughts going through your head. You're gonna be able to
1:38:43
Speaker 1: accomplish anything. Well, you might ever grat you might say, oh,
1:38:46
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to do this more. Nothing is going
1:38:47
Speaker 1: to get done. You're gonna stay there with your eyes
1:38:50
Speaker 1: open and rolling around in bed the time you need
1:38:53
Speaker 1: most the sleep. You're going to be worried and stuff,
1:38:55
Speaker 1: and you're not going to get up out of bed
1:38:56
Speaker 1: and start doing something about it. So don't do that.
1:39:00
Speaker 1: So if you start there, it's like, this is the
1:39:01
Speaker 1: worst time I'm supposed to be sleeping now, So let's
1:39:03
Speaker 1: put that aside for a moment and then divert your brain.
1:39:07
Speaker 1: And it's sort of what I call like a meditative process.
1:39:09
Speaker 1: My key and someone could come up with something different
1:39:11
Speaker 1: that would distract them from all that anxiety is to
1:39:14
Speaker 1: think about being in a woods, a nice secluded, beautiful day.
1:39:18
Speaker 1: The temperature is perfect. I got my backpack, which literally
1:39:21
Speaker 1: has anything that my brain might think up that I need,
1:39:23
Speaker 1: walking slowly, going no place in particular, just enjoying this
1:39:28
Speaker 1: fake walk with a goal that I'm going to ultimately
1:39:32
Speaker 1: get someplace. And oddly enough, I had envisioned myself when
1:39:36
Speaker 1: I'm there, sitting down and preparing on my little camp
1:39:40
Speaker 1: stove a cup of tea, which I've got my backpack.
1:39:44
Speaker 1: I never get there because I have been lulled into
1:39:48
Speaker 1: this calm sense of walking to a destination. And if
1:39:52
Speaker 1: my brain thinks up, like well what if a bearral
1:39:54
Speaker 1: come out of the woods or something like that, I
1:39:55
Speaker 1: got a gun for that. I'm not worried. I'm move on.
1:39:57
Speaker 1: So I just distract my brain and now it removes
1:40:01
Speaker 1: all the anxiety and then I'm asleep before.
1:40:03
Speaker 2: You know it.
1:40:04
Speaker 1: So this thing thought, let me interrupt on that.
1:40:06
Speaker 9: That's a really good psychology because what you just basically
1:40:10
Speaker 9: described is when you reduce all uncertainty and you provided
1:40:13
Speaker 9: all the certainty that you have, which is in your backpack, Yeah,
1:40:16
Speaker 9: your stress goes down.
1:40:17
Speaker 1: The uncertainty equals stress. If you remove uncertainty in your life,
1:40:22
Speaker 1: your stress gets removed. So the more certainty you can
1:40:25
Speaker 1: put in your life, the less stress you're gonna have.
1:40:27
Speaker 1: More like you're gonna fall asleep.
1:40:28
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:40:28
Speaker 1: I don't even look at it that way, but that's
1:40:30
Speaker 1: the thing is sometimes you know, sort of anticipating what
1:40:32
Speaker 1: might happen, and in preparing for the imaginary walk, I
1:40:36
Speaker 1: don't even start on the walk because I have fallen
1:40:39
Speaker 1: asleep while preparing my backpack. T five cares these dogs

Speaker 1: Officer Green, and happy Easter to everyone of the in
1:43:59
Speaker 1: same please department. Returning to George Rena mc keith ten Fell,
1:44:02
Speaker 1: we kind of went through the core items this morning
1:44:04
Speaker 1: that you wanted to touch on, of course, eliminating the
1:44:06
Speaker 1: crap garbage beverages you're drinking and need plenty of hydration,
1:44:10
Speaker 1: preferably some sort of clean water. We need to exercise
1:44:14
Speaker 1: doubling down on that. Sleep is extraordinarily important. How are
1:44:17
Speaker 1: we going to wrap these things up? George, I want
1:44:18
Speaker 1: we need to do one quickie on sleep. So there's
1:44:21
Speaker 1: a couple of tricks. You mentioned the ideas that I
1:44:24
Speaker 1: got that we're not wrap it up. These are actually
1:44:28
Speaker 1: a little easier.
1:44:29
Speaker 10: So one of the tricks is if something comes into
1:44:32
Speaker 10: your head and you can't get to sleep because you
1:44:34
Speaker 10: just thought about it, The trick I use is I
1:44:37
Speaker 10: have a dry erase marker right below the mirror in
1:44:39
Speaker 10: the bathroom, So if something comes into your head, I
1:44:42
Speaker 10: just grabbed the marker and put it up on the
1:44:44
Speaker 10: on the mirror, and then you can forget about it
1:44:46
Speaker 10: because you know it's going to be there tomorrow morning
1:44:48
Speaker 10: when you get up. The other tricky you can do
1:44:50
Speaker 10: if something comes into your head and you don't feel
1:44:52
Speaker 10: like getting up and going to the mirror, throw something
1:44:54
Speaker 10: on the floor. So like, if you've got a thought
1:44:57
Speaker 10: that comes into your head, take a tissue and just
1:44:59
Speaker 10: throw them in the the floor and say out loud
1:45:02
Speaker 10: what it is you want to remember in the morning.
1:45:04
Speaker 10: It's it's interesting that a visual cue like that will
1:45:06
Speaker 10: get you to remember what it was you were thinking
1:45:09
Speaker 10: before you went to bed. Oh okay, So two little
1:45:12
Speaker 10: quickie tricks if stuff. If you're like me, where stuff
1:45:15
Speaker 10: just keeps flooding into your head.
1:45:17
Speaker 1: But the idea for me is to eliminate that flood,
1:45:19
Speaker 1: so I don't need to throw tissue on the floor.
1:45:21
Speaker 1: I don't want to have the thought enter my head
1:45:24
Speaker 1: because I will be thinking about, well, where's my tissue box?
1:45:27
Speaker 1: And then we go through this vicious cycle again, George,
1:45:29
Speaker 1: But I.
1:45:30
Speaker 9: Must not think about anything that's Let's close on what
1:45:34
Speaker 9: we're doing for our brains. What are we putting into
1:45:37
Speaker 9: our minds and the positive law of encouragement, positive law
1:45:40
Speaker 9: of attraction? What type of thoughts are we allowing to
1:45:42
Speaker 9: spin in our head and take up space?
1:45:45
Speaker 1: Are they good?
1:45:45
Speaker 9: And are they going to benefit your future, your family
1:45:47
Speaker 9: and your faith and your hope and all the good things?
1:45:50
Speaker 9: Or the opposite? Are be worrying about things that are
1:45:51
Speaker 9: out of our control? So I highly recommend you you
1:45:54
Speaker 9: get a hold of your thoughts because if not, they
1:45:56
Speaker 9: will control you. Your brain will lie to you multiple
1:45:58
Speaker 9: times throughout the day. Speak life, speak love, and just
1:46:02
Speaker 9: even if you have to fake it till you make it,
1:46:03
Speaker 9: every single day.
1:46:04
Speaker 1: Should be This is gonna be a great day, Keith.
1:46:07
Speaker 1: What a beautiful, good Friday, Easter weekend message.
1:46:10
Speaker 4: Man.
1:46:10
Speaker 1: We'll conclude on that and how can we possibly improve
1:46:13
Speaker 1: on it? You guys, keep up the great work. I
1:46:14
Speaker 1: know you're doing it out of love and had a
1:46:16
Speaker 1: sense of caring and compassion. You want my listeners to
1:46:19
Speaker 1: to feel their best, and so the way you do
1:46:21
Speaker 1: that take care of the whip their tips take advantage
1:46:25
Speaker 1: of the website restore Wellness dot org book market and

Speaker 1: traveler hired. Yeah, yeah, enjoy it. God bless both of you.
1:46:51
Speaker 1: Have a very happy Easter. Seven to fifty five. After
1:46:54
Speaker 1: the top of the our news, we're gonna hear from Gord.
1:46:56
Speaker 1: Gordon McGill's got a book. He's a third generation truck driver.
1:46:59
Speaker 1: He's got a lot of cool information, well maybe not cool,
1:47:02
Speaker 1: but sort of enlightening end of the road inside the
1:47:06
Speaker 1: war on truckers, that's the name of his book. We'll
1:47:08
Speaker 1: talk to Gord right after the news. Hope you can
1:47:09
Speaker 1: stick around from over there. This war has been one
1:47:13
Speaker 1: to right here, krys of oil will drop like a
1:47:15
Speaker 1: another updates at the top of the hour. Fifty five
1:47:18
Speaker 1: KRS the talk station. It's eighth six here fifty five
1:47:23
Speaker 1: KR City Talk Station. Marian Thomas wishing here on a
1:47:25
Speaker 1: very happy good Friday in advanced early happy Eastern and
1:47:29
Speaker 1: pleased to walk home to fifty five KRC Morning. Should
1:47:30
Speaker 1: be looking forward to this since I saw he was
1:47:32
Speaker 1: on the rundown. He is Gordon McGill, originally from Hamilton, Ontario.
1:47:36
Speaker 1: He spent twenty five years behind the wheel of a
1:47:39
Speaker 1: big truck. And yes he's a trucker, written a book
1:47:41
Speaker 1: on that we're gonna talk about there in a minute.
1:47:42
Speaker 1: And he's he's been down the ice roads of Canada's
1:47:46
Speaker 1: Northwest territories. Since he's from Canada, that may make sense.
1:47:48
Speaker 1: But hauling logs down volcanoes in New Zealand, steering road
1:47:53
Speaker 1: trains across the outback of Western Australia, running freight on
1:47:57
Speaker 1: our own highways here in the United States. Gordon McGill, Oh,
1:48:00
Speaker 1: welcome to the fifty five Casey Morning Show, author of
1:48:03
Speaker 1: End of the Road, inside the War on Truckers. It's
1:48:05
Speaker 1: a pleasure for having you on the program today.
1:48:07
Speaker 6: Gord, Yeah, Good morning, Brian, Thanks for having me.
1:48:10
Speaker 1: How's going It's going great? And what a fascinating life
1:48:13
Speaker 1: you've had. You know, I love to drive, and you know,
1:48:16
Speaker 1: I listen, it's too late for me. I'm sixty years old.
1:48:19
Speaker 1: I'm not going to become a trucker, but you know,
1:48:20
Speaker 1: I the idea of being behind the wheel, as long
1:48:23
Speaker 1: as you don't have a family that you want to
1:48:25
Speaker 1: see all the time, it sounds like it might be
1:48:27
Speaker 1: a fascinating way to make a living. Gord, your experience
1:48:30
Speaker 1: and maybe address that family man. And I say this
1:48:32
Speaker 1: within the context of a broader reality young people are
1:48:35
Speaker 1: thinking about when it comes to their careers. Can artificial
1:48:38
Speaker 1: intelligence eliminate the job I'm thinking about, Gord, I don't
1:48:41
Speaker 1: think they can when it comes to trucking.
1:48:46
Speaker 6: I mean, they're working on it. I take a neutral
1:48:50
Speaker 6: approach to their technology because that's not my forte, but
1:48:54
Speaker 6: certainly the discussion around it is full of what you
1:48:57
Speaker 6: might call misinformation. For myself, yeah, I've sort of had
1:49:02
Speaker 6: this unique career arc and you know, it's certainly gotten
1:49:06
Speaker 6: the way of having kids. I didn't have children until
1:49:08
Speaker 6: I was thirty nine, but yeah, I did spend a
1:49:12
Speaker 6: lot of time on the road I quite enjoyed driving.
1:49:14
Speaker 6: It's actually a very human activity to navigate this planet
1:49:18
Speaker 6: we live on with a tool, which is your vehicle,
1:49:21
Speaker 6: employing you know, skills and competencies developed over time, and
1:49:26
Speaker 6: it's a competency and human enjoyment and activity that we
1:49:31
Speaker 6: give over to technology at our own peril.
1:49:35
Speaker 1: Indeed, Well, Gordon, the name of the book suggests it's
1:49:39
Speaker 1: not always right in the world. Obviously, end of the
1:49:41
Speaker 1: Road inside the War on Truckers suggests that we got
1:49:44
Speaker 1: problems out there. And I know we've dealt here in
1:49:46
Speaker 1: the United States with illegal immigrants who can't read English
1:49:49
Speaker 1: getting commercial driver's license, which is just beyond my comprehension.
1:49:54
Speaker 1: Is that the kind of concern you have for the industry?
1:49:56
Speaker 1: Are we talking about something much broader than that, Gord.
1:50:00
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, that's some plomponents of it, and my
1:50:02
Speaker 6: book outlines how we sort of arrived where we're at today.
1:50:07
Speaker 6: The last year and a half or so, the trucking
1:50:10
Speaker 6: industry has been under intense scrutiny in the media, by
1:50:14
Speaker 6: the public, and by the government, and an awful lot
1:50:17
Speaker 6: of holes in various systems and agencies, both federal and
1:50:24
Speaker 6: state have sort of opened up and allowed the trucking
1:50:28
Speaker 6: industry to become parasitized by various actors who, you know,
1:50:33
Speaker 6: maybe aren't all that great at following the rules or
1:50:36
Speaker 6: even caring about them. And because these loopholes have been
1:50:40
Speaker 6: opened up following many decades of other degradations against barriers
1:50:46
Speaker 6: to entry and forcing down the sort of skill level
1:50:49
Speaker 6: required to be to become a truck driver, this all
1:50:52
Speaker 6: has sort of added up to a bit of terror
1:50:55
Speaker 6: on our highways.
1:50:56
Speaker 1: Well, it certainly has in some loss of life on
1:50:59
Speaker 1: top of it. So but come on, Gord, isn't it
1:51:01
Speaker 1: because there is a desperate need for over the road
1:51:04
Speaker 1: long haul truckers and lord knows, we didn't have these
1:51:06
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants or any person coming into the country and
1:51:09
Speaker 1: satisfying the demand that isn't being met by the population here. Well,
1:51:13
Speaker 1: we're all going to be without freight. Is there any
1:51:15
Speaker 1: truth to that narrative? Gorg?
1:51:19
Speaker 6: Yeah, I have a couple of chapters in my book
1:51:22
Speaker 6: dedicated to this question. Unfortunately, some corporate lobbyists called the
1:51:27
Speaker 6: American Trucking Associations have been very good at misclassifying a
1:51:34
Speaker 6: problem which is retention and churn. Because it's become advantageous
1:51:38
Speaker 6: to them to do so, because that churn and retention
1:51:41
Speaker 6: problem has allowed them to unlock again state and federal
1:51:45
Speaker 6: moneies to subsidize truck driver schools. Not because there's not
1:51:49
Speaker 6: enough truck drivers. They produce like hundreds of thousands of
1:51:52
Speaker 6: them every year. It's because they quit and don't come
1:51:54
Speaker 6: back because the industry doesn't want to fix itself and
1:51:57
Speaker 6: doesn't want to pay people properly. And that sort of
1:52:00
Speaker 6: pre existing corporate welfare program based on the lie of
1:52:03
Speaker 6: a shortage ran into the mass migration problems we've had
1:52:07
Speaker 6: over the last few years and brought us to where
1:52:10
Speaker 6: we are today.
1:52:11
Speaker 1: And of course some states are a little more apply
1:52:14
Speaker 1: a little bit more scrutiny on who can qualify than others.
1:52:17
Speaker 1: And maybe with the terrible accidents have happened as a
1:52:20
Speaker 1: consequence of people who can't read signs comes to more
1:52:24
Speaker 1: and more people's attention, more and more legislation will end
1:52:26
Speaker 1: up on the books, which prevents that kind of thing.
1:52:28
Speaker 1: And I know that's already happened already, So maybe the
1:52:30
Speaker 1: problems will come up with a solution and solve that area.
1:52:33
Speaker 1: But one of the things you identify in the book
1:52:35
Speaker 1: end of the road inside the war on truckers. And
1:52:37
Speaker 1: I'm curious about this because I am certainly not familiar
1:52:40
Speaker 1: with and I don't know if my listening audience is
1:52:43
Speaker 1: the Motor Carrier Act of nineteen eighty, which you say
1:52:46
Speaker 1: fundamentally rearrange the economics of the trucking business, and is
1:52:50
Speaker 1: the and I'm just reading this the underlying cause of
1:52:52
Speaker 1: every other problem we've seen since. Can you break that
1:52:55
Speaker 1: down for is gored?
1:52:58
Speaker 4: Right?
1:52:58
Speaker 6: So, the Motor Carrier activeeen was one of a number
1:53:01
Speaker 6: of economic reforms brought about by the Carter administration to address,
1:53:06
Speaker 6: you know, economic doldrums in the nineteen seventies. The previous
1:53:10
Speaker 6: sort of regulated trucking industry was sort of sclerotic and
1:53:15
Speaker 6: created a bunch of cartels, and it needed to be reformed,
1:53:18
Speaker 6: and we did need the Motor Carrier Active nineteen eighty.
1:53:21
Speaker 6: The problem is is that it swung so far in
1:53:23
Speaker 6: the opposite direction that literally anybody with a pulse and
1:53:27
Speaker 6: three hundred dollars could open up a trucking company. And
1:53:30
Speaker 6: unfortunately nobody's been keeping an eye on just at the
1:53:34
Speaker 6: insane number of trucking companies that open up. And then
1:53:37
Speaker 6: the fact that a lot of those trucking companies are
1:53:39
Speaker 6: opened up as sort of ghost LLC's to allow companies
1:53:44
Speaker 6: that get shut down for poor behavior and unsafe operations
1:53:49
Speaker 6: and demerit points on their drivers and shoddy equipment, they
1:53:52
Speaker 6: just shut down their company, move everything to another LLC
1:53:55
Speaker 6: and another motor carrier registration number, and keep on trucking.
1:53:59
Speaker 6: So this system, this system that was meant to sort
1:54:02
Speaker 6: of free things up and increase competition and make things
1:54:05
Speaker 6: better for the almighty consumer, has been completely weaponized against us.
1:54:11
Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this gord that sounds remarkably
1:54:14
Speaker 1: like problems that we've had here in the CINCINNTI are,
1:54:15
Speaker 1: but I'm sure it exists everywhere. You have absentee landlords
1:54:18
Speaker 1: that allow their properties to deteriorate to the point where
1:54:21
Speaker 1: some action needs to be taken. There's litigation that's filed
1:54:24
Speaker 1: against the LLC that owns the building, and lo and behold,
1:54:26
Speaker 1: the LLC just goes out of business. They reform is
1:54:28
Speaker 1: a different one, and you got to start the whole
1:54:30
Speaker 1: legal process over. That sounds remarkably similiar, familiar, Yes it is.
1:54:35
Speaker 6: And you know what else is happening in Ohio? I
1:54:37
Speaker 6: know you're in Cincinnati. I have some colleagues and friends
1:54:41
Speaker 6: in the trucking business there. There's a little town called Mainville, Ohio.
1:54:45
Speaker 6: And this is happening in other areas of southern Ohio
1:54:48
Speaker 6: where various migrant communities are using this system to open
1:54:54
Speaker 6: up all these multiple trucking companies, abusing the immigration system
1:54:58
Speaker 6: and asylum and refugee and mass immigrating themselves into these
1:55:03
Speaker 6: small towns in Ohio, using fraudulent trucking companies to launder
1:55:07
Speaker 6: or create money. And then you know, I think in
1:55:09
Speaker 6: Mainville they're constructing a mosque and most of the money
1:55:12
Speaker 6: behind that is coming from these trucking companies that employ
1:55:16
Speaker 6: migrants from Uzbekistan almost exclusively.
1:55:19
Speaker 1: Hmmm, that sounds like jobs American workers might do.
1:55:22
Speaker 2: Gord, Uh, they would.
1:55:25
Speaker 6: If you paid them appropriately and didn't treat them like
1:55:27
Speaker 6: crap and expect them to just tolerate that abuse without correction.
1:55:32
Speaker 4: Yeah.
1:55:32
Speaker 1: What about those who would say, well, it's market forces.
1:55:34
Speaker 1: These people are capable of doing it, if they're willing
1:55:36
Speaker 1: to work for less, then that just works to the
1:55:37
Speaker 1: American consumers benefit. Because everything that we you know, we
1:55:41
Speaker 1: eat and we get in our we purchase it's all
1:55:43
Speaker 1: brought to a store or a venue that's by by
1:55:46
Speaker 1: a semi tractor trailer. We all know that. So isn't
1:55:50
Speaker 1: this an inflationary reality when you argue for better pay
1:55:52
Speaker 1: for the trucker's cord.
1:55:55
Speaker 6: Uh No, there are a couple of things going on there.
1:55:57
Speaker 6: The cost of trucking, as we're reflected in the market,
1:56:01
Speaker 6: retail price of any possible good or service never exceeds
1:56:06
Speaker 6: three percent, and it's usually down around one percent. And
1:56:10
Speaker 6: who are the consumers themselves but workers, and if they
1:56:13
Speaker 6: don't have any money, they're not going to consume so much.
1:56:18
Speaker 6: America is not a work camp for the third world?
1:56:21
Speaker 6: Or should it be on a death drive to unemploy everybody?
1:56:25
Speaker 1: Good point, Gord. That's why I threw that softball at you.
1:56:27
Speaker 1: I figured you're cracking out of the park. What's the
1:56:30
Speaker 1: fix for the problem you identified earlier with these these
1:56:32
Speaker 1: sham companies that you know, when they're identified as a problem,
1:56:35
Speaker 1: they disappear and then reform. Is that sounds like an
1:56:38
Speaker 1: easy fix, assuming someone's looking out for it.
1:56:40
Speaker 6: And well, you know, God bless a Transportation Secretary Duffy,
1:56:47
Speaker 6: he's listening to us, and the new administrator of the FMCSA,
1:56:51
Speaker 6: Derek Bars is listening to people within the industry and
1:56:54
Speaker 6: they know all this stuff is going on. Their problem
1:56:57
Speaker 6: is is that the FMCSA has been focused on other
1:57:01
Speaker 6: things rather than the important things. They also have a
1:57:04
Speaker 6: little problem employing a bunch of the corporate lobbyist folks
1:57:08
Speaker 6: from the American Trucking Associations I mentioned earlier. Hopefully the FMCSA,
1:57:14
Speaker 6: you know, directs the resources more appropriately towards these very
1:57:18
Speaker 6: pervasive issues.
1:57:19
Speaker 1: Well, going back to the idea that if you are
1:57:21
Speaker 1: making a decent salary in the trucking business and some
1:57:23
Speaker 1: you know, illegal immigrant has an undercut your salary just
1:57:26
Speaker 1: because well they're more than happy to do it that way.
1:57:29
Speaker 1: Is this a good career choice? So those out there
1:57:32
Speaker 1: again going back to the whole idea that we all
1:57:34
Speaker 1: have to do with AI now and young people looking
1:57:35
Speaker 1: for maybe a career in the trades. This is a
1:57:37
Speaker 1: form of trade and again I don't I can't see
1:57:39
Speaker 1: it being eliminated. Is it a good career choice assuming
1:57:44
Speaker 1: you got the right personality type that want to be
1:57:45
Speaker 1: on the road, Gord, It can.
1:57:48
Speaker 6: Be assuming a right personality type and b working for
1:57:52
Speaker 6: the correct company and those are fast coming. The correct
1:57:57
Speaker 6: company to work for is harder to come by than
1:57:59
Speaker 6: the shortage of drivers.
1:58:01
Speaker 1: I can see that. I guess that's an experience thing
1:58:04
Speaker 1: you'll just learn from. Well, I guess just jumping in
1:58:06
Speaker 1: the water and doing it now. I gotta ask you this,
1:58:09
Speaker 1: considering the your your bio, your background, that I just
1:58:12
Speaker 1: sort of pulled a couple of fun facts out when
1:58:14
Speaker 1: I was introducing you. How in the world, Gordon McGill
1:58:18
Speaker 1: from Hamilton, Ontario, did you end up in New Zealand
1:58:22
Speaker 1: and in the outback of Australia and then of course
1:58:24
Speaker 1: driving around here in the United States of America. You've
1:58:26
Speaker 1: been all over the place? How did that happen? As
1:58:28
Speaker 1: a trucker?
1:58:30
Speaker 6: I just I wanted to go places. I availed myself
1:58:34
Speaker 6: of temporary work visas in OZ and New Zealand for
1:58:38
Speaker 6: one year, places where I speak the same language and
1:58:41
Speaker 6: understand the word temporary and didn't plan on sticking around
1:58:44
Speaker 6: to parasitize their economy. And I went home. Something I
1:58:48
Speaker 6: think some of our recent arrival of friends here should understand.
1:58:51
Speaker 1: That is brilliant, Gordon. It is brilliant. So other than
1:58:55
Speaker 1: other fellow truckers or maybe just to enlighten folks like
1:58:57
Speaker 1: me who are not savvy to the problems that have
1:58:59
Speaker 1: been sort of the self harm inflicted by again the
1:59:02
Speaker 1: Motor Carry Act of nineteen eighty or the American Trucking Association.
1:59:05
Speaker 1: Who'd you write the book for?
1:59:08
Speaker 6: I wrote the book sort of in defense of my
1:59:11
Speaker 6: fellow truckers. I mean, I was approached by a publisher
1:59:14
Speaker 6: about eighteen months ago because I write on substack.
1:59:17
Speaker 11: My substack is.
1:59:18
Speaker 6: Called Autonomous Truckers dot substack dot com. I host a
1:59:22
Speaker 6: little podcast, and the whole idea was the pardon me
1:59:26
Speaker 6: to take my sort of observations and my own research into.
1:59:30
Speaker 11: Why the industry functions in the way that it does
1:59:32
Speaker 11: and share.
1:59:33
Speaker 6: Them with, you know, just my fellow drivers for them
1:59:35
Speaker 6: to consider. And so I guess that's sort of who
1:59:38
Speaker 6: I wrote the book for, I mean, and the wider public.
1:59:41
Speaker 12: It's it's a.
1:59:41
Speaker 6: Fairly smooth read, and it's not I don't think it's
1:59:44
Speaker 6: too heavy with technical jargon or insider information. I think
1:59:48
Speaker 6: most people reading it will get the points I'm trying
1:59:51
Speaker 6: to put across, even if they're not truckers or in
1:59:53
Speaker 6: the transportation industry.
1:59:54
Speaker 1: And I imagine come away after reading it with a
1:59:57
Speaker 1: more profound respect for the truckers in the world.
2:00:00
Speaker 6: Good well, mission accomplished.
2:00:02
Speaker 1: There you go, Gord McGill man. It's really been cool
2:00:04
Speaker 1: having you on the program. Cool life you've had getting
2:00:06
Speaker 1: all over the world in trucks, and of course supporting
2:00:08
Speaker 1: the idea that young people can still pursue this as
2:00:10
Speaker 1: a career. We just need to get the baggage out
2:00:12
Speaker 1: of the way. And obviously you've provided a guidepost to
2:00:14
Speaker 1: anybody that wants to read it, maybe elected officials on
2:00:17
Speaker 1: how to smooth out the bumps they have intentionally placed
2:00:19
Speaker 1: in the road. Gordon McGill end of the Road inside
2:00:22
Speaker 1: the War on Truckers. We've got your book on my
2:00:24
Speaker 1: blog page at fifty five caroseea dot com, so my
2:00:26
Speaker 1: listeners can easily click on it and get a copy
2:00:28
Speaker 1: of it, and I hope they do. Gord, it's been
2:00:29
Speaker 1: fun man. I hope you have a great, good Friday
2:00:31
Speaker 1: and a wonderful Easter weekend.
2:00:32

2:00:35
Speaker 6: Thank you for having me. And the book's also available
2:00:37
Speaker 6: on audible for those that are driving around and they'd
2:00:39
Speaker 6: like to listen to it while they're driving.
2:00:41
Speaker 1: They will certainly do that as well. Gordon McGill, it's
2:00:44
Speaker 1: been a pleasure. You'd be safe out there on the roads.
2:00:45
Speaker 1: It's eight nineteen right now here at fifty five Carsiti

Speaker 1: of the show. And I really would love always put
2:00:56
Speaker 1: a smile on my face and hearing that. Thank you,

Speaker 7: I'm a transportation executive. I've been doing this since I
2:01:43
Speaker 7: graduated college in two thousand and two with an undergraduate
2:01:46
Speaker 7: degree in logistics management, and I Gord was absolutely dead
2:01:53
Speaker 7: on and a phenomenal guest to have on your show,
2:01:56
Speaker 7: And I've never heard somebody speak so eloquently about the
2:01:58
Speaker 7: problems in the transportation world today. And I'll tell you
2:02:03
Speaker 7: that I got an undergraduate degree and I learned about
2:02:05
Speaker 7: logistics and transportation in college. And I say that I
2:02:08
Speaker 7: got my master's degree from drivers like Gord, sitting in
2:02:12
Speaker 7: the cab, riding along in the truck and learning about
2:02:15
Speaker 7: what really happens in the world of transportation.
2:02:17
Speaker 1: You were apprentice to a journeyman.
2:02:19
Speaker 3: Man.
2:02:20
Speaker 1: You were an apprentice to a journeyman, Bill.
2:02:22
Speaker 7: I can't I can't give them enough credit. And you
2:02:26
Speaker 7: know now in my role, I'm coordinating transportation all across
2:02:29
Speaker 7: the world, and I can tell you that it's the
2:02:32
Speaker 7: truck driver's day and he couldn't be more dead on
2:02:34
Speaker 7: about how he could treat the people that are moving
2:02:36
Speaker 7: our freight and moving our food. Everything you buy at
2:02:38
Speaker 7: the store at being moved by a truck driver, and
2:02:42
Speaker 7: they don't get appreciated enough to And I can't wait
2:02:44
Speaker 7: to buy your book and read it.
2:02:46
Speaker 1: I'm glad, Bill, and I'm glad you put the stamp
2:02:48
Speaker 1: of approval on it, considering your relationship and history with
2:02:50
Speaker 1: the business. So yes, it is all accurate, and Gord
2:02:53
Speaker 1: apparently knocked it out of the park. Fifty five cares
2:02:55
Speaker 1: dot com to get a copy of the book. Hey,
2:02:57
Speaker 1: thanks man, I appreciate it. Bill. That's a that's a
2:03:00
Speaker 1: definite endorsement that I welcome here.
2:03:02
Speaker 2: Bob.
2:03:03
Speaker 1: I cannot get your call in this segment, but I'm
2:03:04
Speaker 1: happy to take you right out of the gate after
2:03:06
Speaker 1: these brief words to stick around. This is fifty five
2:03:08
Speaker 1: KRC and iHeartRadio A twenty nine and A Friday eight,
2:03:13
Speaker 1: Good Friday. Brian Thomas always welcoming phone calls five one, three, seven,
2:03:17
Speaker 1: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three
2:03:19
Speaker 1: talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones, at
2:03:21
Speaker 1: least when we don't have guests on the program here
2:03:23
Speaker 1: this morning. Welcome Bob. Thanks for holding over the break.
2:03:24
Speaker 1: It's good to hear from you.
2:03:27
Speaker 11: Hey, Thanks, Brian. I hope you're doing well.
2:03:30
Speaker 1: I am. Thank you very much. I hope you can
2:03:32
Speaker 1: say the same.
2:03:33
Speaker 11: Oh, I'm fine. Hey, I just wanted to make a
2:03:35
Speaker 11: quick comment here. This this Teresa Tji or a Terry
2:03:39
Speaker 11: Thiji thing. Yeah, there's there's no victims in this because
2:03:43
Speaker 11: here's here's the thing. She was. She was vested in
2:03:47
Speaker 11: her pension. Okay, she could have been the advocate to
2:03:51
Speaker 11: stand up and tell them that there's that it's all
2:03:55
Speaker 11: miss management down there. The judges are letting these criminals go,
2:04:02
Speaker 11: that they're not properly policing this, that there's there's racism
2:04:08
Speaker 11: and the department. She should have stood up and that
2:04:11
Speaker 11: Aftam pure Ball is a total clown. And she didn't
2:04:16
Speaker 11: stand up to that. And she could have. She could have.
2:04:19
Speaker 11: That would have put her on a higher pedestal this
2:04:22
Speaker 11: thing here. She was just going along to get along
2:04:25
Speaker 11: and the wope eat their own.
2:04:27
Speaker 1: It's you know, there may be something to that, Bob.
2:04:30
Speaker 1: Since I was not there during the whole thing, I
2:04:32
Speaker 1: understand that. But you know, being forced into a situation
2:04:35
Speaker 1: where you're you know you will be fired, terminated otherwise
2:04:38
Speaker 1: lose your situation because you did speak truth to power,
2:04:41
Speaker 1: not everybody in his position to want to do that.
2:04:43
Speaker 1: Maybe because she wasn't ready to be able to leave
2:04:45
Speaker 1: the role as police chief. She'd only been there one
2:04:47
Speaker 1: year and figured maybe she could turn things around. I
2:04:51
Speaker 1: don't know. I can't creep into the mind of Teresa Thiazi,
2:04:53
Speaker 1: but I can look and see what actually happened to her.
2:04:56
Speaker 1: She was put on administrative leave without a single reason
2:05:00
Speaker 1: articulated that so much so they had to go out
2:05:03
Speaker 1: and hire an outside law firm to try to find one.
2:05:05
Speaker 1: And look at what we got in return for that
2:05:07
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars a tax payer money. We get this
2:05:10
Speaker 1: nine page report which is basically is based upon thirty
2:05:13
Speaker 1: two officers among a contingent of nearly one thousand potential
2:05:16
Speaker 1: interview people. They all had their feelings about management. There
2:05:20
Speaker 1: was not a single positive statement from any of those officers.
2:05:23
Speaker 1: And as we learned the other day from russ Neville,
2:05:25
Speaker 1: her brother, he has talked with some of the officers
2:05:27
Speaker 1: who were among the thirty two in the report, and
2:05:29
Speaker 1: they did say, listen, I said some positive things about her.
2:05:33
Speaker 1: None of that's in there, So I can't negate what
2:05:35
Speaker 1: you said as a possible potential action by three Cythigi
2:05:40
Speaker 1: standing up and blowing the whistle. But that same token,
2:05:43
Speaker 1: I can certainly understand maybe why she didn't want to
2:05:45
Speaker 1: do that. So but in the final analysis, whether or
2:05:48
Speaker 1: not that's what she did was right or wrong, you
2:05:51
Speaker 1: can't negate the ridiculous, ridiculous treatment of police Tersea Thigi
2:05:58
Speaker 1: by Cheryl Long, the city manager. I guess they have
2:06:00
Speaker 1: to have provault a certain degree, maybe even iris ROLLI
2:06:03
Speaker 1: had to say, and all that keep your popcorn out.
2:06:05
Speaker 1: I imagine, imagine there's gonna be litigation on this subject.
2:06:10
Speaker 1: You think anyhow ifive WT three seven four nine fifty
2:06:13
Speaker 1: five hundred eight hundred eight two three talk And since
2:06:15
Speaker 1: we're singing the praise of the American truck driver and
2:06:19
Speaker 1: we should, let me just interject real quick, as I've
2:06:21
Speaker 1: done it before, to my garbage workers out there, the
2:06:24
Speaker 1: folks that are working for Rumky, that pick up my
2:06:26
Speaker 1: waist every single Wednesday and deal it for with every
2:06:30
Speaker 1: and anybody in that in that in that business, God
2:06:34
Speaker 1: bless each and every one of you. I mean, people
2:06:35
Speaker 1: tend to look down on burger flippers and you want
2:06:37
Speaker 1: froys with that, and I think that is terrible. But
2:06:40
Speaker 1: quite often garbage workers lost and would be a garbage man.
2:06:43
Speaker 1: Yeah you do. You probably make a good living and
2:06:45
Speaker 1: you probably end up with a pension or something. All
2:06:46
Speaker 1: I know is I appreciate you, because what would the
2:06:49
Speaker 1: world look like without garbage workers? Have respect, have respect
2:06:54
Speaker 1: for people who work. Can't we just default on that
2:06:58
Speaker 1: there are so many people out there that could work
2:07:00
Speaker 1: and can work. I mean, we need legislation to force
2:07:03
Speaker 1: those folks to work twenty hours a month or something
2:07:06
Speaker 1: in order to qualify for benefits when they are able, bodied,
2:07:09
Speaker 1: and capable of entering the workforce on some level. Let's
2:07:14
Speaker 1: respect the worker, all of them over. Feel free to
2:07:20
Speaker 1: call five on three seven four nine fifty five hundred
2:07:22
Speaker 1: eight two three talk. Multiple SWAT units had to be
2:07:24
Speaker 1: called out for an emergency situation yesterday. Happened in over
2:07:27
Speaker 1: the Rhine. At least a dozen police cars, along with
2:07:30
Speaker 1: multiple SWAT cars blocked an area near Liberty Street and
2:07:34
Speaker 1: Race Street. Alabama. Fishbar, which is a restaurant located right
2:07:39
Speaker 1: where this happened, posted of social media announcing that they
2:07:41
Speaker 1: were closing immediately because of that emergency situation. One officer
2:07:45
Speaker 1: on the scene, speaking with local WLWT news, said there
2:07:48
Speaker 1: was a suicidal person with a gun. That person ultimately
2:07:51
Speaker 1: taken to the hospital with life threatening injuries. So, yeah,
2:07:55
Speaker 1: a little problem downtown sin say, just the other day, Hey,
2:07:57
Speaker 1: we're on a trend in Kentucky, my friend and the Commonwealth.
2:08:00
Speaker 1: You no longer have to pay for in state tuition
2:08:03
Speaker 1: or no illegal immigrants getting in state tuition rates at
2:08:06
Speaker 1: Kentucky colleges. Federal judge ruled earlier in the week that
2:08:10
Speaker 1: the policy that was there in Kentucky violated US law
2:08:13
Speaker 1: and permanently blocked its enforcement. Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman,
2:08:17
Speaker 1: behind this, along with the Trump administration lawsuit, argued the
2:08:20
Speaker 1: policy violated federal law, which states that an alien who
2:08:24
Speaker 1: is not lawfully present in the United States shall not
2:08:28
Speaker 1: be eligible on the basis of residents within a state
2:08:31
Speaker 1: for any post secondary education benefit unless a citizen or
2:08:36
Speaker 1: national of the United States is eligible for such benefit,
2:08:39
Speaker 1: without regard to whether the citizen in or national is
2:08:41
Speaker 1: such a resident. So if you're going to give it
2:08:43
Speaker 1: to them, you've got to give it to liberally every
2:08:44
Speaker 1: single other human being lawfully here in the country. Wednesday
2:08:49
Speaker 1: this week, Attorney General Coleman celebrated the victory. He wrote
2:08:55
Speaker 1: the victory that, of course, the opinion wrote that the
2:08:57
Speaker 1: Kentucky education regulation violated the Constitution supremacy clause and permanently
2:09:01
Speaker 1: enjoins the Kentucky Council on post Secondary Education from enforcing it.
2:09:06
Speaker 1: He said, federal law is clear illegal immigrants don't get
2:09:09
Speaker 1: preferential treatment of Kentucky's public universities. He went on, but
2:09:13
Speaker 1: that's a summoned substance of it. So I kind of
2:09:14
Speaker 1: view that as a victory from my friends in the
2:09:16
Speaker 1: commonwealth and for common sense. Oh yeah, and plus it's
2:09:19
Speaker 1: consistent now with the law stick around. Folks. Got more
2:09:23
Speaker 1: to talk about coming up? We can I can just
2:09:25
Speaker 1: kind of start diving into stories that haven't gotten in today,
2:09:27
Speaker 1: or you can choose the subject matter by giving me
2:09:29
Speaker 1: a call. Be right back after these words. Fifty five
2:09:32
Speaker 1: KRC Taxes was waiting on the AIRCD talk station, Happy
2:09:36
Speaker 1: Good Friday. Over to the phones. A'm gonna go five
2:09:38
Speaker 1: one thirty seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred
2:09:40
Speaker 1: and eighty two three talk pound five fifty on eight
2:09:42
Speaker 1: and T phones. Jay, Welcome to the program, Happy Friday.
2:09:45
Speaker 1: Happy good Friday to you, sir.
2:09:48
Speaker 12: Hey, Happy good Friday. Brian, Hey, just real quick, wanted
2:09:52
Speaker 12: to share with everybody what the meaning of good Friday is.
2:09:54
Speaker 12: I think Christians probably understand it with the day that
2:09:58
Speaker 12: Jesus died on the cross. But if you dig into that,
2:10:02
Speaker 12: pull that thread and say, so what does that mean?
2:10:05
Speaker 11: What did he do that for?
2:10:07
Speaker 12: What it means is that we are lost sinners. What
2:10:12
Speaker 12: he did as as the passover Lamb, he was sinless.
2:10:17
Speaker 12: He died on that cross, and when he did, he paid.
2:10:20
Speaker 7: Our sin debt.
2:10:21
Speaker 12: So he becomes the bridge for our salvation. And it's again,
2:10:26
Speaker 12: it's nothing that we can earn. It's everything that he did,
2:10:29
Speaker 12: nothing that I've done. And so when you think about
2:10:33
Speaker 12: and I love the segment you did on health and
2:10:37
Speaker 12: the priority on your good health, more important than that
2:10:42
Speaker 12: is where are we going to spend eternity? And so
2:10:45
Speaker 12: he created the bridge. He is the only bridge. He
2:10:48
Speaker 12: is the only intercessor between sinful man and Holy God
2:10:52
Speaker 12: in heaven. And what we all we need to do
2:10:55
Speaker 12: is accept the gift. If we try to earn it,
2:10:57
Speaker 12: it's a paycheck, it's a gift. Nothing we can do
2:11:00
Speaker 12: to earn it. So hopefully that's a message that resonates
2:11:04
Speaker 12: and we remember that today and celebrate that that our
2:11:06
Speaker 12: eternity has security if you accept the gift for his
2:11:09
Speaker 12: death on the cross, or our pay the debt that we.
2:11:13
Speaker 11: Could never pay.
2:11:14
Speaker 1: Fair enough, Jay, you're that's that's two days. You're welcome, Jay,
2:11:17
Speaker 1: It's two days in a row. You did your Christian
2:11:19
Speaker 1: duty to proselytize and try to convince somebody to go
2:11:22
Speaker 1: over and embrace the Christian religion.
2:11:26
Speaker 4: You know.
2:11:28
Speaker 2: Who is it?
2:11:29
Speaker 1: Pendulate? He wrote a book. He's an atheist and he
2:11:34
Speaker 1: wrote a book, and it was he was a fashioning book.
2:11:36
Speaker 1: He's a very profound libertarian, and I just think he's
2:11:39
Speaker 1: a really funny guy and extraordinarily talented. And so whether
2:11:41
Speaker 1: or not you want to reject him out of hand
2:11:43
Speaker 1: simply because he doesn't embrace the Christian faith, he did
2:11:45
Speaker 1: make a great argument for prostalization, and I thought it
2:11:49
Speaker 1: was rather profound. It was right out of the gate
2:11:50
Speaker 1: in his book. It was within the first chapter, maybe
2:11:53
Speaker 1: the second chapter. But he said, if you believe profoundly,
2:11:58
Speaker 1: like for example, what Jay said, this bridge to the
2:12:01
Speaker 1: afterlife where you are going to be blessed and surrounded.
2:12:03
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's if harps and angels are
2:12:05
Speaker 1: your view of heaven or what, but there's some people
2:12:08
Speaker 1: with perception that you're either going to do a heaven
2:12:09
Speaker 1: or hell kind of thing, or maybe you have the
2:12:12
Speaker 1: embrace of Christ or the absence of it, if that
2:12:16
Speaker 1: is in fact hell. But his point was, if you
2:12:18
Speaker 1: really think that you're going to be eternally damned if
2:12:20
Speaker 1: you really think that someone who doesn't embrace the Christian
2:12:22
Speaker 1: faith is headed in that direction and you care a
2:12:25
Speaker 1: wit about them, your friends, your neighbors, and you want
2:12:29
Speaker 1: to think about maybe a heavenly life where you are
2:12:31
Speaker 1: seeing your previously deceased loved ones, and this whole idea
2:12:35
Speaker 1: like this. Some have had with near death experiences or
2:12:37
Speaker 1: death experiences where they come back and they say, oh,
2:12:39
Speaker 1: my God, my grandmother was there, everybody who died before
2:12:42
Speaker 1: me was all there. It was this warm, glowing, loving environment.
2:12:45
Speaker 1: If that's what you think is waiting in store for you,
2:12:47
Speaker 1: and there is a friend in your world who does
2:12:49
Speaker 1: not believe or subscribe to that idea of the faith,
2:12:52
Speaker 1: they're not going to be there. So arguably, not only
2:12:55
Speaker 1: is it in your best interest to want to ensure
2:12:57
Speaker 1: that they're going to be there to embrace your concept
2:12:59
Speaker 1: of heaven, if they're really someone you love and care for,
2:13:04
Speaker 1: you might want to pass along the message to them
2:13:06
Speaker 1: in an effort to save them and help them avoid
2:13:10
Speaker 1: that consequence. So when you are on the receiving end
2:13:15
Speaker 1: of that prostialization, and maybe you're not in colt, maybe
2:13:18
Speaker 1: you're of a different religious faith. It's kind of like
2:13:21
Speaker 1: when someone of a different holiday wishes you like a
2:13:24
Speaker 1: merry Christmas or a happy Honuka and that kind of thing.
2:13:26
Speaker 1: There are some people who take that as the gift
2:13:28
Speaker 1: of love and the offering and the suggestion of happiness
2:13:30
Speaker 1: that is truly intended by that person, and there are
2:13:33
Speaker 1: other people.
2:13:33
Speaker 2: In the world.
2:13:34
Speaker 1: I don't celebrate that. I'm not a Christian. Well, okay,
2:13:38
Speaker 1: you are failing to appreciate the point of the message.
2:13:42
Speaker 1: So if that person who's proselytizing you, maybe you think
2:13:45
Speaker 1: they're rubbing you the wrong way. Listen, I don't need
2:13:47
Speaker 1: a religious lecture right now. Put that attitude down for
2:13:50
Speaker 1: a moment and consider what they're trying to do for you.
2:13:57
Speaker 1: And that little effort is a sign of love, even
2:14:01
Speaker 1: if you're not basically even if not going to come
2:14:03
Speaker 1: over to the side of the arguer for the for
2:14:05
Speaker 1: the you know, the proselytizer and what they want to
2:14:08
Speaker 1: achieve for you. So it is a beautiful message when
2:14:12
Speaker 1: someone tries. And that's the only thing I want to
2:14:15
Speaker 1: observe here because I personally am not a theologian, but
2:14:17
Speaker 1: I go through life kind of looking at it that way.
2:14:19
Speaker 1: And when you see someone who cares enough to do
2:14:21
Speaker 1: something like that, just take it for what it is
2:14:24
Speaker 1: and be thankful that that person cares enough about you
2:14:27
Speaker 1: to pass along the message. Eight forty five Right now,
2:14:29
Speaker 1: if you have KRC the talk station five point three
2:14:31
Speaker 1: seven four nine fifty five hundred eight hundred eight two
2:14:33
Speaker 1: three talk pound five fifty on eight T and T phones,
2:14:35
Speaker 1: be right back after these words. Fifty five KRC an unforgettable.
2:14:39
Speaker 4: Exhibition, definitely the most talk station.
2:14:43
Speaker 1: It's eight forty nine fifty five kr CIT talks station.
2:14:47
Speaker 1: Try to make it a really really special good Friday
2:14:49
Speaker 1: in a great Easter weekend. If you celebrate, if you
2:14:51
Speaker 1: don't enjoy the festivities that everybody else is having, and
2:14:53
Speaker 1: smile for them because they're smiling. And let us see here,
2:14:58
Speaker 1: just quining to figure out where I want it is
2:15:00
Speaker 1: end up here on the fifty five KRC Morning Show.
2:15:02
Speaker 1: How about this one? You know my entire and when
2:15:09
Speaker 1: I was a kid, I really really really believed in
2:15:11
Speaker 1: the Bermuda Triangle and extraterrestrials and all that. And I'm
2:15:14
Speaker 1: smart enough to know how big the galaxy is and
2:15:16
Speaker 1: how many millions of universe, or how many millions of
2:15:19
Speaker 1: galaxies there are. The universe is so huge, and you
2:15:23
Speaker 1: see these extraordinary pictures from the you know, the Hubble
2:15:26
Speaker 1: telescope and the other telescopes, and when you see this
2:15:29
Speaker 1: way off in the distance picture of all these bright,
2:15:32
Speaker 1: bright things that look like individual stars, and as they
2:15:34
Speaker 1: zoom in on them, you find out that each one
2:15:37
Speaker 1: of those is its own galaxy, like the Milky Way.
2:15:41
Speaker 1: In the fact, that would even within our own galaxy
2:15:44
Speaker 1: here swirling around so many others. The closest star is
2:15:49
Speaker 1: multiple light years away. I mean, it's it's not even
2:15:54
Speaker 1: comprehensible how huge it is. So yeah, I believe there's
2:15:57
Speaker 1: life out there, But again, going to how big everything is,
2:16:01
Speaker 1: I kind of find it hard to believe that way
2:16:03
Speaker 1: out of the distance, many many many light years away,
2:16:06
Speaker 1: even if it's coming from the closest star, how you
2:16:09
Speaker 1: would accomplish a travel to get to hear? And how
2:16:12
Speaker 1: in the hell would we among all the little rocks
2:16:15
Speaker 1: floating around the galaxy or in the universe, how would
2:16:17
Speaker 1: we be the destination point? Okay, so yeah, I believe
2:16:21
Speaker 1: in it, but why would they show up here? So
2:16:24
Speaker 1: maybe they did, but as with that little background my
2:16:27
Speaker 1: philosophy and perception of things. Representative Tim Burchett. This is
2:16:30
Speaker 1: a New York Post article Representative Tim Burchett. He said,
2:16:37
Speaker 1: Republican out of Tennessee, said the American people would be,
2:16:40
Speaker 1: in his words, up at night worrying if they knew
2:16:45
Speaker 1: what he has been briefed on about extraterrestrial life. Quote.
2:16:50
Speaker 1: I've been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is,
2:16:53
Speaker 1: and I'll just say this, if they were to release
2:16:56
Speaker 1: the things that I've seen, you'd be up at night
2:16:59
Speaker 1: worrying about it, about all this stuff. He's a member
2:17:02
Speaker 1: of the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal secrets.
2:17:06
Speaker 1: Said he was brief just a couple of weeks ago,
2:17:08
Speaker 1: quote on end issue close quote about extraterrestrial life that,
2:17:12
Speaker 1: in his words, quote would have set the earth on
2:17:16
Speaker 1: fire and unglued the country if released without going into
2:17:22
Speaker 1: any detail whatsoever, which is fine. Why I find these
2:17:24
Speaker 1: comments troubling, They would demand answers. I presume he's referring
2:17:27
Speaker 1: to you or the global population large. Apparently he was
2:17:33
Speaker 1: being interviewed by host Rob Affinity of Fox News. Affinity
2:17:42
Speaker 1: played a clip of former Representative Matt Gates alleging knowledge
2:17:47
Speaker 1: of alien human hybrid breeding programs. Burchett stopped short of
2:17:52
Speaker 1: directly addressing this claim quote, I'm still a member of Congress,
2:17:57
Speaker 1: so I can't really comment too much about what Matt
2:17:59
Speaker 1: said had infinity and response. Wait, seriously, I'm being one
2:18:04
Speaker 1: hundred percent serious. He's advocated for full disclosure despite this
2:18:09
Speaker 1: potential impact the truth could have on the public. The
2:18:12
Speaker 1: public has a right to know. Dag nummit, it's your
2:18:15
Speaker 1: tax dollars. Let's get it out there now. I embrace
2:18:17
Speaker 1: that philosophy, and I also sort of question if they're
2:18:23
Speaker 1: aware that there are extraterrestials out there, not about this
2:18:25
Speaker 1: baby breeding program. It sounds like something from the Overnight Show. No,
2:18:28
Speaker 1: I don't believe in lizard people, sasquatch or choopocabra, and
2:18:32
Speaker 1: I'll add this to the list of things I don't
2:18:33
Speaker 1: believe in. But if there's something going on out there,
2:18:35
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you want to know? Could you handle it?
2:18:38
Speaker 1: Would you go? I mean, would this keep you up
2:18:40
Speaker 1: at night? I think I'm adult enough and I'm capable
2:18:45
Speaker 1: enough of handling. I think it will be really cool
2:18:47
Speaker 1: to know whether or not there are other floating you know,
2:18:49
Speaker 1: the aliens floating around out there. I'd like to get
2:18:52
Speaker 1: the answers to a lot of the questions about what
2:18:54
Speaker 1: these these strange objects are that are flying around at
2:18:57
Speaker 1: all kinds of ridiculous speeds seemingly defined the law physics.
2:19:00
Speaker 1: That would be cool, But could you handle it? Would
2:19:05
Speaker 1: he interfere with your world? Would people of faith wonder
2:19:11
Speaker 1: and question their faith over the idea that there are
2:19:14
Speaker 1: extraterrestrials out there? Pick a religion that you believe in.
2:19:17
Speaker 1: Presumably those extraterrestrials wouldn't have any connection with or connection
2:19:22
Speaker 1: to a religion here from the earth, right, Joe? Can
2:19:29
Speaker 1: I Joe? Are aliens in need of salvation? Why not?
2:19:34
Speaker 2: No?
2:19:34
Speaker 1: That's an answer anyway anyway, and obviously poses some philosophical
2:19:38
Speaker 1: intellectual questions. But I've heard this argument my entire life
2:19:42
Speaker 1: of well, they know about it, but they just don't
2:19:43
Speaker 1: want everybody to know about it. They know there are
2:19:45
Speaker 1: aliens out there in the world. They've got bodies over
2:19:47
Speaker 1: in a hangar fifty one or whatever. Okay, why can't we.
2:19:53
Speaker 2: Know about that?
2:19:53
Speaker 1: If it's true, I just don't believe a word of
2:19:58
Speaker 1: it that we can't handle it. I think we can
2:19:59
Speaker 1: handle anyth they throw out of it if it's out there,
2:20:01
Speaker 1: if it's real, and most notably, if our taxpayer dollars
2:20:03
Speaker 1: are paying for it, Like all the reports and investigations
2:20:07
Speaker 1: on all these extraterrestrials. Yeah, that was my taxpayer dollars.
2:20:10
Speaker 1: It paid in part for those investigations. Why don't you
2:20:13
Speaker 1: let me see it. Let's put an end to this
2:20:15
Speaker 1: damn thing. Come with me coming up an eight fifty five.
