"Riggle Me This!" (Thursday October 16, 2025, Hour 2) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

0:03
Speaker 1: Letting me down. What do you call a sleeping boone
0:07
for you?
0:07
Speaker 2: From Joe Thomas. It's first thing today.
0:12
Speaker 3: George said, steal me stem you have a day at
0:17
least for work.
0:17
Speaker 4: When the sun comes up, drops a pet of the
0:20
scoop all.
0:24
Speaker 5: The treasure seeds, the one that Joe's as smile he
0:30
only eggs.
0:34
Speaker 6: Joe, thank you for letting me be of service to
0:37
you this morning. Basking in your amplitude or frequency modulation.
0:44
Speaker 1: However you get it.
0:45
Speaker 6: As long as you get it, you get it at
0:49
four three four eight eight two four two one seven
0:53
text messages as well to that hotline, as I know
0:57
how mornings are, and sometimes just sh outing into a
1:02
text message voice to text is much easier.
1:05
Speaker 1: I get it.
1:08
Speaker 6: Then, you know calling and waiting on hold and all
1:11
of this. You know that that can you take time
1:13
away from doing all the things you put off to
1:16
the last minute. I feel you, player, It's not like
1:19
you can just shut down your business or even a
1:22
portion of the non essential parts.
1:25
Speaker 7: It is.
1:26
Speaker 1: The Wrigular is back, and Denver.
1:31
Speaker 6: Wriggleman, former congressman who you know writes all sorts of
1:36
bigfoot books and bigfoot expert and out there searching for
1:42
the J six collusion along with Bigfoot in the woods.
1:47
Just the news reporting that they've now made all the
1:52
connections through this dire subversion of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance
2:00
Act to weaponize it against elected officials political opponents. And
2:09
we were telling you the story a little bit there
2:12
in John Solomon, who I really think should be FBI director,
2:15
But John Solomon writing and talking to a friend of mine,
2:22
co worker amongst the Heritage Family at Oversight Project, Mike Howell.
2:27
The January sixth Committee, Howell tells them, was an absolute
2:31
violation of civil rights that far exceeded anything ever purported
2:35
to be investigated. They abuse their authority to engage in
2:39
a political mapping exercise to surveil their political opponents. Whoever
2:45
turned this information over to the committee is exposed here
2:49
and we will be exploring ways to hold them accountable. Well,
2:52
Denver Riggleman brags about it in his book, and that's
3:02
where it really starts to come down. And believe me,
3:05
Adam Kinzinger will do nothing except find a fall guy
3:09
for his problems.
3:11
Speaker 1: So watch out for that. And you know he used
3:14
to you know, we used to come on the program
3:16
all the time.
3:17
Speaker 6: As soon as he left office, it became clear he
3:19
didn't need radio anymore. So he abandoned us like a
3:23
bad habit. And that's okay. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
3:27
And and you know, you make your bed and you
3:30
get what you get. Our first things this morning, shut
3:36
down is back in the news now that we're back,
3:39
and oh, we've done the Middle East piece. Now let's
3:43
get back to trying to broker peace in between Republicans
3:46
and Democrats in the US Congress. Senate majority leader John
3:51
Thune is looking to back Democrats into a corner.
3:55
Speaker 1: But is this did he say this? Or is this
3:58
Riggelmann's surveillance move on? All right?
4:03
Speaker 6: He said, okay, I didn't know this might have been
4:06
some of the stuff Denver Rigelman out there surveilling senators
4:10
without a warrant.
4:11
Speaker 1: There you go.
4:11
Speaker 6: I mean a blanket. J six proviso is not a
4:16
warrant per se, but he must think it is anyway.
4:19
John Thune is trying to back the Democrats into coming
4:23
back to discuss funding the partial shutdown by bringing a
4:28
full year Pentagon funding bill to the floor of the
4:31
Senate today. He hopes to force them into deciding one
4:36
way or the other, or at least owning the fact
4:40
that they didn't want to pay the military. Thune's cohort
4:44
on the Democrat side, Tim Kaine, says the Obamacare subsidies
4:48
and a guarantee from the White House is what's needed
4:51
to get the government reopened.
4:54
Speaker 8: People's healthcare premiums don't spike dramatically, which they are set
4:58
to do by year end, and virgin anyone elsewhere. In second,
5:01
we just want an agreement from the President that a
5:03
deal is a deal. If we shake hands on a deal,
5:06
that this is going to be government funding, you won't
5:10
unilaterally cancel it next week.
5:13
Speaker 6: Americans still blame Republicans more frequently than Democrats for the
5:17
partial government shutdown, but as the Babylon Bees headline says,
5:21
Democrats vow to keep the government shut down until someone notices.
5:26
Thirty nine percent of those surveyed by YouGov at the
5:29
behest of the economists say they that President Trump and
5:33
the Republicans are to blame for the partial shutdown. Thirty
5:37
three percent blame the Democrats in Congress, and the remaining
5:42
respondent said what the government's shut down really Trump administration
5:47
is going to withhold forty million dollars from California over
5:51
its refusal to enforce English English language requirements for truck
5:57
driver licenses. Transportations Secretary Sean Duffy said the move is
6:03
in the wake of an investigation into the illegal immigrant
6:07
truck driver Harjinder Singh, who killed three people in Florida
6:11
after making an illegal U turn. California had issued him
6:15
his commercial driver's license there and those are some of
6:20
our first things here on the talk media network.
6:23
Speaker 1: Now we can discuss I'm Joe Thomas.
6:33
Speaker 6: In less than a month, the Trans Siberian Orchestra hits
6:36
the road for their twenty twenty five tour, and for
6:38
the first time in my long relationship with the band,

Speaker 12: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
9:37
than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
9:41
the one for new macccle disease can protect adults from
9:44
illnesses that can cause misdays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
9:49
New macaccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
9:53
or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
9:57
of an infection that can spread from person to person.
10:00
Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
10:04
I'm doctor Susan Reem of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.
10:08
When I speak with my patients, I urge them to
10:10
get all their recommended vaccines. Now I'm urging you to
10:14
speak with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
10:17

10:20
adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,

and shingles, visit adult Vaccination dot org. That's www dot

13:18
Thomas and Charlotte's.
13:20
Speaker 6: I keep doing that, I'll lose that position all of
13:22
a sudden, I'll be third most famous Thomas from Charlottesville.

13:35
if that's just easier for you, UH to do that.
13:38
It's ease of operations. That's how we roll here. And
13:41
we say the quiet part out loud. When last we spoke,
13:45
the Cape Crusaders at jcsgold dot com had told us
13:50
about the rarefied air gold and silver we're in. James
13:54
Luck is back on with us, and you can call
13:55
him yourself at four three four nine seven nine coin
14:00
at any time after ten Eastern to talk to him
14:03
and the rest of the family business that wants to
14:06
help you navigate the tumultuous seas of gold and silver investing,
14:11
especially up in the stratosphere where it is right now.
14:15
Speaker 1: James, good morning, How are you doing, sir?
14:20
Speaker 18: Are still on the ascent? Gold is a four two
14:25
and forty dollars of about thirty one dollars so far overnight.
14:31
It's just stop training at the moment. Silver is also
14:35
up it It just broke fifty three dollars. It looks
14:38
like I said, fifty three oh five.
14:40
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, is no.
14:45
Speaker 19: Where?
14:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, where we go?
14:47
Speaker 18: It doesn't seem like there's any end in sight. But
14:49
we will see how far this this takes us well.
14:52
Speaker 6: And certainly this, as we've talked in the past, this
14:55
economically speaking, is a hedge against the devaluation of dollars.
15:00
Gold still buys what gold bought when you guys opened
15:04
in nineteen sixty one. It's just the value of the
15:08
dollars that go along with it. That's what's changed.
15:12
Speaker 18: Absolutely, everything has gotten more expensive. You know, obviously everyone
15:16
knows this. The you know, the pain on your on
15:19
your pocket year over year. You know, everything costs more
15:23
and more, and that's why you buy gold and silver
15:25
as the hedge against a shrinking dollar basically, and if.
15:32
Speaker 1: You do need it, you have it.
15:34
Speaker 18: And the best thing to do is just to buy
15:36
gold and silver on a regular basis so you can
15:39
stack it up over time and cost average in and
15:43
you're always building and protecting your wealth for the future.
15:46
Speaker 6: And that's why you want to talk to this family
15:48
business again, jcsgold dot com. So how long did it
15:52
take for you to clear out a weekend, a long
15:54
Columbus Ay weekends worth of orders they're at jcsgold dot com.
15:59
Speaker 1: James, Yeah, it took most of the day yesterday.
16:03
Speaker 18: I'm packaging up our online orders and shipping them out
16:07
and there, but they keep coming in, so we got
16:10
more to do all over again today, you know. And
16:12

16:31
you have an awesome morning, sir.
16:33
Speaker 18: Thanks showing you too.
16:34
Speaker 6: And again you get to them at four three four
16:37
nine seven nine coin for us you use four three
16:41
four eight eight two four two one seven. I want
16:45
to get back into the California. California gun ban, they're
16:50
trying to now ban specific guns, not all of them,
16:53
but just specific ones. Gateway drug that it may be
16:57
also healthcare back as the shutdown is forcing Democrats to
17:05
start saying the quiet part out loud about Obamacare, and
17:09
they might as well just say Joe Thomas in the
17:12
morning was right.
17:14
Speaker 1: They're not going to de nice.
17:16
Speaker 6: If Tim Cain or Mark Warner would give me some
17:18
credit for prognosticating that Obamacare's design was to crush the
17:24
American free market healthcare system and leave us no option
17:28
but a single payer option, paging doctor Bernie Sanders to
17:33
the operating suite. But I want to jump back into
17:35
the story from just the news. It's always a good
17:45
day when the regular is back. Former Congressman Denver Riggleman,
17:51
who if you remember him from all of his appearances
17:54
on Fox News and then CNN as the as the
18:00
Republican to order, or in the commercials for Democrat Abigail
18:06
Spanberger as the ex officio Republican. The Ex Republicans Club
18:12
of Adam Kinsinger and Liz Cheney employed Denver Riggleman as
18:19
their Well you know, I don't know if you were
18:22
ever in the group like this. I didn't like it
18:25
when it happened around me, and I disassociated. But you
18:28
ever have those groups of people who always let somebody
18:31
hang around because they had a bigger car, or they
18:35
had gas money. You know, we're not proud of those
18:39
parts of our past, but anyone who's gone to college
18:43
knows that some kid was allowed into the fraternity because
18:47
he had a car. You know, everyone has a flounder
18:52
somewhere in their history. And Denver Riggleman, really, as this
18:56
plays out, was the flounder to the the Delta KI
19:04
version of the J six Commission, Arctic Frost, the surveillance
19:12
apparatus of the J six Commission that FBI has uncovered
19:16
and John Solomon is writing about in Just the News.
19:19
Chuck Grassley said ARCTE Frost wasn't just a case to
19:23
politically investigate Trump it was a vehicle by which partisan
19:27
FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors, and where the FBI agents
19:31
have already been fired, could achieve their ends partisan ends,
19:36
and improperly investigate entire Republican political apparatus. Denver Riggelmann responded
19:45
to last week's revelation that Smith had obtained the phone
19:48
records of Republican members of the House and Senate by
19:52
hinting that he had helped make it happen. If people
19:56
need to know about the differences in metadata and tap
20:00
being phones, bragged Wriggleman in a tweet, give me a call. Also,
20:07
I know the limitations the FBI most likely imposed because
20:10
the J six Committee tech team very much assisted in
20:14
crafting the subpoenas for J six call records. So not
20:18
only were they the investigators, they were the ones writing
20:21
the subpoenas for the January sixth Commission. Here, here's what
20:25
we want you to ask for, because they had already
20:28
found it. So what they were doing was back engineering
20:32
subpoenas after surveilling people. So Wrigglemann's braggadocia as it as
20:40
it will to anyone who puffs themselves up on the
20:44
town square is his undoing. He's bragging that they did.
20:48
The investigation then told the January sixth Commission, Hey, hey, Adam, Adam,
20:54
look what I found. Look what I found?
20:56
Speaker 1: Adam. Can I hang out with you and Liz Lenz today?
20:58
Speaker 18: Can I?
20:59
Speaker 1: Adam?
20:59
Speaker 17: Can I?
21:06
Speaker 6: His book of Braggadosha called The Breach The Untold Story
21:11
of the Investigation into January sixth, details Wriggleman's descriptions of
21:17
the committee's sweeping data collection. Part of the work I oversaw,
21:22
I is, by the way, repeated in this book. I
21:26
think four two hundred and seventy five times, but I
21:29
might be estimating. I oversaw the committee was painstaking process
21:35
of matching phone numbers to names, utilizing powerful law enforcement
21:39
databases and other sources as we could find them. My
21:43
files included information on thousands of sensitive texts, language for subpoenas,
21:50
and the phone records connecting them back to the White House.
21:54
But remember he then said, here's how I want you
21:57
to write the subpoena so I can give you these.
22:02
Speaker 9: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent
22:05

23:10
Speaker 5: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
23:14
is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
23:17
owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
23:21
That's what you should use, but there are exceptions to
23:23
the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
23:26
premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
23:29
is not just due to the octane rating. There are
23:31
better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
23:36
the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well

28:17
the second most famous. Thomas ensured us.
28:20
Speaker 9: Well, I thought that you came upon me when we
28:24
both reads for the count.
28:27
Speaker 24: Understandable understandable ships, probably understandable co hand s conrae Han
28:40
non a bit ably handserble is sodyble.
28:53
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, let me hear it.
29:09
Speaker 6: This is the Barack Obama Marionette quartets. Oh yes, they
29:16
both reached for the healthcare insurance and we're seeing it now.
29:22
The shutdown has exposed the virus infecting us all, which
29:29
is Obamacare. And then during COVID as if China knew,
29:39
China said, oh, really, you've you've convinced all your people
29:43
they have health insurance or health care masquerading as healthcare insurance.
29:49
Speaker 1: Will show you up.
29:51
Speaker 6: And one of the biggest parts exposed by the WU
29:56
flu was that he even in the best situations and
30:01
understand the daisy chain of this, we all get batpoops
30:10
crazy from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. We all catch
30:17
the WU flu, even those who don't catch it. We're
30:21
all infected by it. We're all scared by it. We're
30:25
all told it's killing everybody. It might as well be
30:35
Babyface Finster around the corner with a gatling gun, just
30:39
mowing everybody down.
30:44
Speaker 1: So we're like, what will we do?
30:45
Speaker 6: Well, thank goodness, we all have Obama Care. And then
30:50
we went to the doctor and like, okay, your cope
30:52
is five thousand and six thousand dollars.
30:55
Speaker 1: What I just need? I'm coughing and I can't get up.
31:03
Speaker 6: So the chi cooms using biological warfare, which is permitted.
31:08
By the way, you would think that the Geneva Convention
31:11
prohibits such biological warfare. I'll say the quiet part out loud.
31:17
Doctor Robert Malone told us that the Geneva Convention permits
31:23
biological weapons as long as they're not fatal or intentionally
31:30
fatal or mostly fatal. So being mostly harmless is okay
31:36
as far as the Hague is concerned, not a war
31:39
crime at all.
31:45
Speaker 1: So they release this.
31:46
Speaker 6: Bio weapon and you think, well, the bioweapon's supposed to
31:51
kill us all, No, it's not. It's supposed to make
31:53
us really really sick, to break our health in system.
31:58
And this is where Tony Fauci and the Infectious Disease
32:05
Division of the Center for Disease Control and Infection and
32:09
their collusion with the Wuhan Institute of Virology becomes important.
32:15
And you know, we bring this up because as the
32:19
dust settles around the historic Mid East peace Deal and
32:23
the clans of Gaza start to stand up and fight
32:27
back against Hamas. Tim Kaine, like the most popular radio
32:35
show in America based in Virginia, Hey, I think we
32:39
may have figured out there are not many other radio
32:41
shows based in Virginia, so we can be the number
32:44
one where the number one morning show based in Virginia.
32:51
There's always a way to make sure you gotta go
32:54
number one. You never want to be going number two.
32:58
But Tim Kaine.
33:01
Speaker 1: Says the quiet part out loud about.
33:03
Speaker 8: People's healthcare premiums don't spike dramatically, which they are set.
33:07
Speaker 7: To do.
33:09
Speaker 6: Because there were COVID nineteen subsidies. Because all of a sudden,
33:12
we were under this bioweapon attack. And I put attack
33:19
in air quotes because it was coordinated. As you look
33:22
at the receipts that Rand Paul has between Tony take
33:26
the shot, Leave the Canodese Fauci and Odd job at
33:33
the Wuhan Institute of Virology to do gain of function
33:38
research to create superbugs. And then we all get attacked
33:46
by this superbug and we go to our doctor to
33:49
find out that our copay is too high to get
33:52
treated and they can't treat us because if they give
33:54
us ivermectin or hydroxychloric when they lose their license because
33:59
treating sick people with readily available medicines to make them.
34:04
Speaker 1: Well again, isn't what the American medical system is about?
34:07
Speaker 11: No, no, no, no no.
34:11
Speaker 6: That creates a whole side industry driven by the same
34:16
folks at the insurance industry who say, we can't be
34:19
treating all these sick people. You better do something about this,
34:23
President Biden. So they create these Obamacare subsidies. The government
34:29
will pay your copay for you. Basically that's now given
34:37
Tim Kain and his ILK the premise to say, you know,
34:41
we need we need this deal that guarantees the Obamacare
34:46
subsidies ad infinito.
34:49
Speaker 8: People's healthcare premiums don't spike dramatically, which they are set.
34:52
Speaker 7: To do.
34:54
Speaker 6: Because at the end of the year the COVID nineteen
34:58
era Obamacare subsidies, which is like a ventilator on the patient,
35:06
keeping it breathing when it may have lost the function
35:09
to continue to breathe on its own organically. I'm sorry,
35:15
am I torturing the metaphor? I mean, how many different
35:19
ways can I drag medical parlance into this? Now we've
35:22
got the Obamacare is on a ventilator I don't know,
35:28
and there you no ivermectin for it.
35:30
Speaker 1: Area. It goes again because you were fooled in twenty ten,
35:41
and then once it existed.
35:42
Speaker 6: And this is the thing about Nancy Pelosi's famous statement,
35:48
we need to pass it so we can find out
35:50
what's in it. Once we found out what was in it,
35:54
it was too late. The virus had entered the body. Yeah,
36:00
there I go again, can't help myself. The virus had
36:07
entered the host. We now were sure that we were
36:11
guaranteed to have health care insurance. Oh yes, oh yes.
36:15
We both reached for the health care insurance, and we
36:21
were sure that having healthcare meant having health care insurance.
36:25
Why they were one and the same. Barack Obama's ads
36:33
on the radio said, you need health care insurance. What
36:37
will you do if you don't have health care insurance?
36:40
Vote for this bill, Tell your congressman to vote for
36:42
this bill so you can have health care insurance. And
36:47
now you have health care insurance and still no health care.
36:55

Speaker 9: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
39:08
bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
39:13
I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
39:19
optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
39:23
nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
39:27
reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
39:32
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:43
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
39:51
healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

Speaker 28: Hiverybody, I'm Jack Hannah and it's always a boy growing
41:01
up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
41:05
I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
41:07
but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
41:09
birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
41:13
who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
41:15
who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
41:18
for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
41:21
them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
41:23
of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
41:26
best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
41:30
at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
41:33
perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
41:36
at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
41:38
from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
41:42
a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
41:44
variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
41:47
help those in need. So please join me an American

44:49
cortex until they finally find their way out through her
44:53
mouth as her weighing in on the disappearance of the
44:59
Obamacare subsidies and uh some of the advisories that Robert F.
45:05
Kennedy Junior has purported at the Department of Health and
45:09
Human Services.
45:10
Speaker 1: Mike is on with us at four three four eight
45:13
eight two four two one seven. Good morning, Mike, what's
45:16
on your mind?
45:16
Speaker 8: Sir?
45:20
Speaker 6: The fable? Yeah, hey Mike, Yeah, you were breaking up
45:33
really bad there. We were going to get you government
45:35
phone service. Uh, unless you already have government phone service,
45:39
because that'll make it all better. We'll subsidize your phone
45:42
service as well. Uh, to make sure it's a complete
45:45
money laundering scheme. Have you hit a better sell? Sounds
45:49
like you're a little better.
45:54
Speaker 19: I don't know what is DoD as an entrance corridory.
45:59
Speaker 1: No cell phone towers.
46:03
Speaker 6: You can't have cell phone towers where anyone can see
46:06
them because they hurt people's feelings and makes people prone
46:12
to not be able to communicate, which puts them in
46:14
great peril. We'll see if we can reconnect with Mike
46:18
this youve can get him back. Maybe just getting a
46:22
better sell everything is. I don't know if there's a
46:24
d doos going on this morning, but there's all sorts
46:29
of If you go surfing the web, half of the
46:32
news sites you go to Newsmax is down, for example.
46:37
Several internet service providers are down, cell phone service companies
46:42
are down. I'm not sure if there is, but as
46:44
sure as acting like there's some DDoS attack going on
46:51
out there, because it just seems like everything has gone
46:55
caddy wampus this morning. Technologically speaking, anyway, you and me
47:00
here on the Mumford tea firefly suck it from the
47:03
sky down link Tenni. We're hanging in there. We're getting
47:08
it done where we need. Does Mike have music on hold?
47:17
Speaker 1: Mike? Are you back?
47:20
Speaker 19: Yeah, I'm back. And it's since I got such fun
47:24
service regulated by the government to prevent it blinded site,
47:33
I have it where it tries bringing a home line
47:36
as well.
47:37
Speaker 6: Oh okay, well, I'm glad we got you back. I
47:39
wanted to hear your thought on this Obamacare subsidy expiring.
47:47
You said you had a thought.
47:49
Speaker 19: Well, when it was first enacted, the Affordable Care at
47:55
my employer could not afford it. So unless you were
47:59
managed to, our administration was a SPECCIALI cut back to
48:07
pretty aperture for at all. My job was surched out
48:13
or contracted out. It was even cheaper to do that,
48:18
even with a serve prience pay then keep me on
48:21
and pay for healthcare. So I'm a little bit wary
48:25
about it to begin with.
48:27
Speaker 6: Well, and this was the first wave you remind us of.
48:31
The first wave of Obamacare's impact was the mass of
48:35
unemployments or underemployments, the outsourcing that happened where people were
48:40
let go or severely downsized in amount of hours. Because
48:45
I think if I remember correctly, Mike, correct me if
48:48
I'm wrong. If you worked less than thirty hours a week,
48:52
you were not your employer was not mandated to give
48:56
you health care insurance or offer it to you.
48:58
Speaker 1: Correct, that is.
49:01
Speaker 19: Correct, thirty hours. It might have been as high as
49:05
thirty two hours a week. Put Yeah, that was a
49:09
ton of point.
49:10
Speaker 17: So it work hours.
49:14
Speaker 1: And there he goes again.
49:16
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I'm sure because the amount of websites that
49:20
I've tried to get to, and there are some that
49:22
are working fine, some that are working fine, somewhere completely down.
49:26
So I don't know, you know where or how this
49:29
dds is going on, But there are whole internet service providers,
49:32
whole cell phone companies that have gone caddy wampus this morning.
49:37
So everything's bouncing around the ionosphere trying to find a
49:41
portal to come scorting out of.
49:44
Speaker 1: So all of this and it was all.
49:49
Speaker 6: Out of this bait and switch that they threw the
49:53
echo chamber, and maybe it was a practice run, but
49:57
they've been using it ever since. The more they say
50:00
something from behind a desk, the more earnestly the anchor
50:05
stares into the camera as they're trained to do. That's
50:08
why the teleprompters are usually right on the side of
50:11
either side of the lens on a TV camera, so
50:16
that you can be looking right at the viewer, so
50:20
they know that you mean what you're reading that somebody
50:25
else wrote for you. You're a teleprompter, says you never
50:30
hear a news anchor say that. My teleprompter tells me
50:33
that there was a car accident on Main Street yesterday.
50:38
And not everyone can go in and come in on
50:41
a subject matter and throw in like you and I can.
50:45
That's okay. People need to have it written down. I
50:48
write stuff down, notes, talk about this. Don't forget that.
50:53
I don't script out stuff you've heard how bad it
50:56
gets when I'm trying to read a script. Fumble more
51:01
than that kick returner five yards from the end zone,
51:04
start celebrating two sentences before the story, and then it's fumbling,
51:08
stumbling and dumbling.
51:11
Speaker 1: So it began with massive underemployment.
51:15
Speaker 6: People pushed to thirty hours a week, and then the
51:17
unions came along and said we need to have that
51:19
protected as full time work. And we had economists saying
51:28
that this was a full employment opportunity because all these
51:32
companies that were cutting their employees back to thirty hours
51:35
a week, we're going to need more employees to fulfill
51:40
those extra hours. So if you had five employees and
51:44
each one lost ten hours a week, well that's a
51:46
whole other employee you've got to hire for the lost
51:49
fifty hours.
51:50
Speaker 1: This's two because none of them can work more than
51:55
thirty hours a week.
51:58
Speaker 6: This is great. We're going to get people off on them.
52:00
They're not going to be able to pay their bills anyway,
52:02
and that's what we're seeing now. Anyway, we've seen all
52:06
of this fruit come to and I feel bad because,
52:10
just like with the Denver Riggelmann January sixth stories, that
52:13
John Solomon is reporting.
52:15
Speaker 1: This is stuff we told you about, and you know,
52:22
some of it.
52:22
Speaker 6: Was blind spot like Paul Ryan turning on repeal and replace.
52:27
It was thirteen times thirteen times Paul Ryan as Speaker
52:32
of the House had passed a repeal and replace bill
52:36
under Barack Obama, only that Barack Obama vetoed them, and
52:41
then Donald Trump comes along and all of a sudden, ah, yeah,
52:44
we're not going.
52:45
Speaker 1: To pass any of those. So you knew, you knew
52:48
what was going on.
52:51
Speaker 11: You know, It's true. Difficult times have a way of
52:54
focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
52:57
when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
52:59
why if so many people are joining meta share right now,
53:03
Metashare is a trusted way to save up to fifty
53:06
percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred
53:09
thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious
53:12
why too, especially now during this challenging season with health
53:17
care costs and out of pocket expenses going up. Metas
53:19
Share can save you a lot of money. The typical
53:22
family saves five hundred dollars a month. Meda Share works too.
53:26
It's been around for thirty years, members have shared more
53:28
than five billion dollars of each other's bills. There are
53:31
different options to choose from to fit your budget. I'll
53:34
give you the number here in a second, and if
53:36
you call, you can get a price within two minutes.
53:38
Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
53:41
and start saving. Here you go call eight five five
53:44
share forty. That's eight five five share forty, eight five
53:49
five share forty
