- 0:50Speaker 6: Resurrection Sunday approaches four three four eight eight two four
- 0:55Speaker 6: two one seven. That is our phone number and our
- 0:58Speaker 6: text message hotline. It's a multi tasker because well, your
- 1:02Speaker 6: mornings are just crazy, and you know you need the
- 1:05Speaker 6: time and treasure to get a thing going on here.
- 1:09Speaker 6: Just did an interview with a trade paper and he said,
- 1:11Speaker 6: why why are you there on Saturdays? Everyone else takes
- 1:14Speaker 6: Saturday off, all the big famous you know types. Well,
- 1:18Speaker 6: I mean, first off, I guess it's good to be
- 1:21Speaker 6: that way, because it's about them, not you. You have
- 1:25Speaker 6: to get to work on a Saturday. Morning. So that's
- 1:27Speaker 6: where we are trying to help you get your day
- 1:30Speaker 6: started up here. The voices you heard, oh, the voices
- 1:34Speaker 6: you heard. So that's from the police officer and his
- 1:38Speaker 6: interaction with Tiger Woods after he rolled over his sports
- 1:44Speaker 6: car clipping a truck that he was trying to pass
- 1:47Speaker 6: in Jupiter, Florida. Did you hang out down here with us?
- 1:50Speaker 6: Please go check it? But yeah, I'll stop you the president.
- 1:57Speaker 6: You know, there was a day when Tiger Woods didn't
- 2:01Speaker 6: have to gloss that way. I mean, if there's proof
- 2:05Speaker 6: to the fact that Tiger isn't Tiger anymore, is the
- 2:10Speaker 6: fact that he needs to run some line about talking
- 2:13Speaker 6: to the president to try to impress The constabulary in Jupiter, Florida.
- 2:21Speaker 6: Used to be enough to say, oh my god, you
- 2:22Speaker 6: know it's Tiger Woods down there. Most of them now
- 2:25Speaker 6: they're like, is that that old guy that used to golf?
- 2:27Speaker 6: I mean most police officers. I don't think I've ever
- 2:30Speaker 6: seen Tiger Woods win a golf tournament. You know, they're
- 2:34Speaker 6: twenty one, twenty two years old. Do they know who
- 2:38Speaker 6: Tiger Woods even is? And how do you spell eldrit?
- 2:44Speaker 6: So we get and that's just fun and frolic. That's
- 2:48Speaker 6: while our soldiers are searching frantically the Iranian countryside. I
- 2:54Speaker 6: watched at least one left wing blogger lose his battel
- 2:58Speaker 6: control over the fact that if we're searching for an
- 3:01Speaker 6: American civilian, then that means.
- 3:03Speaker 7: There's boots on the ground and the president line and
- 3:06Speaker 7: people died, and oh my.
- 3:10Speaker 6: Gosh, you know, you almost you almost don't know where
- 3:14Speaker 6: to begin, because the left is starting to grasp the
- 3:19Speaker 6: fire hose mentality that the president has the idea that
- 3:24Speaker 6: if you just keep firing, they're not going to be
- 3:29Speaker 6: able to keep up with you, and they do. They
- 3:35Speaker 6: just so you've got left wing bloggers now saying that
- 3:41Speaker 6: because this fifteen crashed, ron says it shot it down,
- 3:48Speaker 6: says it shot down another one that we have pretty
- 3:51Speaker 6: good intel that it crashed on its own, that there's
- 3:59Speaker 6: a pilot who has American boots and they're on the ground.
- 4:05Speaker 6: And I understand this is why you start each weekend
- 4:08Speaker 6: with a headache. I get it. I'm with you, player,
- 4:12Speaker 6: but we must run our first things down for you
- 4:15Speaker 6: this morning so that you can begin this Saturday morning
- 4:18Speaker 6: and get off to what it is you need to do.
- 4:24Speaker 6: So as mentioned, a US fighter jet and F fifteen
- 4:29Speaker 6: to E went down. One of the crew members is missing,
- 4:33Speaker 6: the other one has been rescued to Military helicopters, including
- 4:38Speaker 6: a US Air Force UH sixty Blackhawk, were struck by
- 4:42Speaker 6: Iranian fire while searching for the down pirate pilot, and
- 4:47Speaker 6: in Iran leadership has called on the public to find
- 4:51Speaker 6: quote the enemy pilot. The US strikes Thursday on a
- 4:56Speaker 6: major Iranian bridge that was under construction to the Iranian authorities,
- 5:01Speaker 6: killed eight people celebrating the close of the Persian New
- 5:06Speaker 6: Year because apparently it's a thing to do this on
- 5:09Speaker 6: an unopened bridge that's under construction. Iran decried the strike
- 5:13Speaker 6: on civilian infrastructure, while the president said the bridge collapse
- 5:18Speaker 6: was what they intended and threatened much more to follow.
- 5:23Speaker 6: Half of the NCAA Women's Final four is settled, and
- 5:27Speaker 6: it was more It looked like more of a blowout
- 5:30Speaker 6: at the end than it was in a back and
- 5:32Speaker 6: forth game for most of it. The South Carolina game
- 5:36Speaker 6: Cocks pulled away four an eleven point win over Yukon. However,
- 5:41Speaker 6: after the game, Gino Orima, coach at Connecticut, had a
- 5:46Speaker 6: shouting match that went on for some time with Carolina
- 5:50Speaker 6: coach Dawn Staley during a TV after a TV interview afterwards,
- 5:56Speaker 6: ORIMA said their coach rants and raves on the sidelines
- 5:59Speaker 6: and calls the rec free names you don't want to hear,
- 6:02Speaker 6: and we get six fowls to none. I've got a
- 6:05Speaker 6: kid with a rip jersey and they say, I don't
- 6:07Speaker 6: see it. Come on, man, it's for a National Championship cruise.
- 6:12Speaker 6: Battle of smoky and fast growing wildfire Friday and windy
- 6:16Speaker 6: southern California that forced some residents to evacuate a community
- 6:20Speaker 6: college and temporarily closed that down. It's the Springs fire.
- 6:25Speaker 6: It broke out around eleven Friday morning and by evening
- 6:29Speaker 6: had grown to about sixteen point eight square kilometers in
- 6:34Speaker 6: the Marino Valley in Riverside County, and US and European
- 6:38Speaker 6: officials say Russia is the one providing Iran targeting intelligence
- 6:44Speaker 6: on American ships in their battle with the United States. Meanwhile,
- 6:50Speaker 6: Russia struck at least and killed eight people in Ukraine
- 6:54Speaker 6: on Friday. Those are your first things for this Saturday morning.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Let's see if something costs less a lot less, but
- 7:04Speaker 1: people are actually happier with it. That sounds like something
- 7:07Speaker 1: to look into, and that's meta share. Maybe you've heard
- 7:10Speaker 1: joining meta share can save you or your family up
- 7:13Speaker 1: to five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge, But.
- 7:16Speaker 6: It's also true.
- 7:16Speaker 8: People are just happier with it.
- 7:18Speaker 1: They love being part of something that reflects and promotes
- 7:21Speaker 1: their values and what they believe in.
- 7:23Speaker 6: Meta share works too.
- 7:24Speaker 1: It's been around for thirty years now and members have
- 7:27Speaker 1: shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.
- 7:31Speaker 1: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.
- 7:34Speaker 1: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
- 7:37Speaker 1: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
- 7:39Speaker 1: of your health care, whether you're self employed or part

- 8:07Speaker 10: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
- 8:12Speaker 10: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, Our
- 8:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 10: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 10: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 10:01Speaker 12: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 12: with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 2: I'm not only in all of.
- 10:05Speaker 12: Their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 12: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 10:11Speaker 12: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 12: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 12: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 12: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:22Speaker 12: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 12: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:28Speaker 12: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 12: they also perform life saving work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 6: Dogs keep us.

- 10:37Speaker 12: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 10:41Speaker 12: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 10:44Speaker 12: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society

- 13:16Speaker 17: Sometimes they're Bay needs something to keep you cool.
- 13:19Speaker 6: I love women's basketball now.
- 13:21Speaker 18: Sometimes they have bab needs something.
- 13:23Speaker 6: To keep you cool because you know, the man's game
- 13:27Speaker 6: has become so sanitized, and it wasn't. And I'm trying
- 13:33Speaker 6: to figure out if what's the old expression about interpersonal relationships.
- 13:40Speaker 6: If you have a problem with everyone else, the problem
- 13:44Speaker 6: might be you. I mean it was it was Pat's
- 13:47Speaker 6: summit for a long time that battled with Gino Ori Emma,
- 13:53Speaker 6: and now it's Dawn Staley. I mean, you know, does
- 13:56Speaker 6: Gino just go home at night and and get into
- 14:00Speaker 6: matches with his wife? Now, Lord knows, I've seen couples
- 14:03Speaker 6: that do that, but at least it, you know, in
- 14:10Speaker 6: a game, these games, you know, forty to fifty, you
- 14:14Speaker 6: know these I appreciate the women's game of basketball more
- 14:20Speaker 6: so than the men's and there's a hierarchy. Basketball is
- 14:24Speaker 6: one of the sporting events that I appreciate very much.
- 14:28Speaker 6: Number one, because it is a game of the people,
- 14:33Speaker 6: not of you know, the people who can afford to
- 14:36Speaker 6: play it. It's why it caught on in Europe in
- 14:40Speaker 6: ways that none of the other quote American sports. Have
- 14:47Speaker 6: kids all over Europe play basketball, not as much as
- 14:51Speaker 6: they play soccer, but with the same efforts, because you
- 14:56Speaker 6: really don't need a lot to play basketball a and
- 15:00Speaker 6: that's how you get started. You don't get started in
- 15:02Speaker 6: a league with a coach and an athletic trainer and
- 15:06Speaker 6: a dietitian and a nutritionist and a zen master and
- 15:09Speaker 6: all that other stuff. You're just a kid with a
- 15:11Speaker 6: ball and a goal. That's how soccer works, That's how
- 15:14Speaker 6: basketball works, and that's why they are the two biggest
- 15:20Speaker 6: sports in the world. Whether they're big on TV in
- 15:23Speaker 6: the United States, that's a different debate because the stats
- 15:26Speaker 6: will start flying and look at how many people watch
- 15:28Speaker 6: NFL football, Joe, and look at how few kids are
- 15:31Speaker 6: playing it. There's a huge crisis in football coming, and
- 15:35Speaker 6: it's a demographic one because kids ain't playing, moms don't
- 15:40Speaker 6: want them playing because of CTE. This is why you're
- 15:46Speaker 6: seeing such a push for flag football. I've said this
- 15:52Speaker 6: to Mac on numerous occasions, not that it is the
- 15:55Speaker 6: most important story in the world, but you will see
- 15:59Speaker 6: tackle football go away as a sport before ten years
- 16:05Speaker 6: goes by. The NFL will adopt They're already doing it
- 16:08Speaker 6: in the Pro Bowl. The viewership, though not Super Bowl level,
- 16:17Speaker 6: is high, mostly because it's women in bikinis. But the
- 16:21Speaker 6: Women's Flag Football League has got adherence. But basketball is
- 16:28Speaker 6: that game that regardless of your economic stature, you can
- 16:33Speaker 6: play ball. And the National Basketball Association, or as I
- 16:41Speaker 6: call it, the National Basketball Abomination, has become so dull,
- 16:46Speaker 6: so mind numbingly dull, because everybody is so big and
- 16:51Speaker 6: the court has not changed in size from when the
- 16:55Speaker 6: average NBA player was six foot five now they're seven
- 16:59Speaker 6: feet and the court is just clogged with massive people.
- 17:07Speaker 6: And as a rule, the professional men's basketball is dull.
- 17:13Speaker 6: Women's game, they're smaller, there's more room, there's more passing
- 17:17Speaker 6: that is an efficientado over the game. I appreciate the
- 17:20Speaker 6: pass that leads to the pass that leads to the
- 17:23Speaker 6: open shot. Unfortunately, the women's game is falling into the
- 17:27Speaker 6: same trap the men's. You know, it's isolation. Who's your
- 17:30Speaker 6: big star player? Just get them the ball and then
- 17:33Speaker 6: they bounce it for a while until they decide which
- 17:36Speaker 6: way they're going to go, and then they try to
- 17:37Speaker 6: take a shot and you've got a fifty to fifty
- 17:39Speaker 6: chance they make it. That's why you wind up with
- 17:44Speaker 6: games that you know, forty five minutes later you've scored
- 17:47Speaker 6: ninety points. So it's it's on the coaches. I guess
- 17:56Speaker 6: to take on some of the attention getting, but gino
- 18:00Speaker 6: Oriema doesn't need to fight to secure his place. He
- 18:04Speaker 6: and Pat Summit, their rivalry Tennessee versus Connecticut made collegiate
- 18:10Speaker 6: women's basketball thing. And his point about the early rounds
- 18:17Speaker 6: and that there are too many rounds mid majors at
- 18:20Speaker 6: center of the NCAA basketball tournament for the women's side
- 18:24Speaker 6: maybe right, because just like it was in those days
- 18:27Speaker 6: when he was battling Pat Summit, there were few teams
- 18:30Speaker 6: that had enough number one caliber players to compete. So
- 18:36Speaker 6: you wind up with games where Yukon is winning its
- 18:41Speaker 6: opening round games by thirty points, and you're saying, well,
- 18:44Speaker 6: that's not even competitive. You almost want to stop the
- 18:47Speaker 6: fight in the first round because the talent pool of
- 18:52Speaker 6: female basketball players hasn't grown to the point where a
- 18:57Speaker 6: sixteen seed has enough star player to do it. To
- 19:03Speaker 6: have that upset moment that University of Maryland Baltimore County
- 19:07Speaker 6: ousting Virginia from the nc Double A Tournament, and for
- 19:11Speaker 6: my fence in Charlotteville, yes I had to bring that up.
- 19:18Speaker 6: But the battling between you know, coaches and and and
- 19:21Speaker 6: somehow it's the coach's fault that you know, she got
- 19:24Speaker 6: the referees to stop calling fouls on South Carolina. If
- 19:29Speaker 6: that's the case, that's a bigger story. I mean, if
- 19:31Speaker 6: Gino wants the n C Double A to investigate whether
- 19:34Speaker 6: coach which whether referees are just ignoring fowls, that's a
- 19:39Speaker 6: different investigation. But it's it's at least made a dull
- 19:43Speaker 6: game of defense. And I like defense, but of every
- 19:46Speaker 6: now and then I want somebody to pass the ball
- 19:48Speaker 6: a few times to get to break down the defense.
- 19:56Speaker 6: The fireworks at the end made, you know, some of
- 19:58Speaker 6: the NC Double a final for stuff worth it as
- 20:02Speaker 6: a lot of polks tuning in for it, and I
- 20:04Speaker 6: get it, But a bigger question still comes with the name, image,
- 20:10Speaker 6: likeness stuff. And Gino brought up a little bit of
- 20:12Speaker 6: this after they made the Final four, and he talked about,
- 20:16Speaker 6: you know, these small colleges and transfer portal in their
- 20:21Speaker 6: star players. They get one star player, they make the
- 20:24Speaker 6: NC Double a tournament star player transfers to Tennessee or
- 20:27Speaker 6: Connecticut or South Carolina. And is that good for some
- 20:33Speaker 6: school in Evanston, Illinois or Sandpoint, Idaho. And you would
- 20:41Speaker 6: say to a degree yes, because you make some box
- 20:43Speaker 6: for making the double a tournament and you put your
- 20:47Speaker 6: school's name in front of some eyeballs. Though the viewership
- 20:52Speaker 6: for the final four is still pretty good, but for
- 20:55Speaker 6: those first rounds of sixty four not so much, not
- 21:02Speaker 6: so much. And the danger in this, and this is
- 21:06Speaker 6: where it comes back to where our normal milieu is,
- 21:10Speaker 6: is that these schools that have now capitulated to the name,
- 21:14Speaker 6: image likeness paying student athletes stuff. They're basing it on
- 21:19Speaker 6: the fact that Mercedes Benz and all these corporations Pfizer, etc.
- 21:25Speaker 6: Are pouring big money into the advertising coffers. At some point,
- 21:30Speaker 6: the return on investment is not going to show up

- 28:21Speaker 2: on the Top Media Network.
- 28:24Speaker 18: What's going on?
- 28:27Speaker 6: You don't want to know, yessne. And it's the same
- 28:37Speaker 6: with everything. So you got to remember something. In capitalism,
- 28:40Speaker 6: we're all serving someone and one of the things that
- 28:44Speaker 6: Marxists try to do is try to make that seem
- 28:46Speaker 6: like it's a bad thing, like it's conscription, like it's slavery.
- 28:51Speaker 6: I've listened to NFL football players perhaps sending out a
- 28:56Speaker 6: warning call that they were suffering some horrible form of CT,
- 29:01Speaker 6: trying to make it seem like they're contract worth tens
- 29:05Speaker 6: of millions of dollars each year, was akin to slavery.
- 29:09Speaker 6: If you don't want to do something, don't do it.
- 29:13Speaker 6: We as a country shouldn't subborn that kind of behavior.
- 29:16Speaker 6: But we all serve one another. And in media, just
- 29:21Speaker 6: like in delis, just like in plumbing, just like an
- 29:24Speaker 6: auto repair, there needs to be a provider and a consumer, right,
- 29:30Speaker 6: that's it. That's capitalism one oh one. The consumer needs
- 29:37Speaker 6: to have the capital to buy the producer's product, and
- 29:42Speaker 6: it has to be a benefit to them, and they
- 29:44Speaker 6: have to have free choice of that and then it
- 29:49Speaker 6: works beautifully. It's when they start to stick their fingers
- 29:53Speaker 6: in there and they start to manipulate in us Professor Keynes,
- 29:57Speaker 6: who to be fair, he just did the observation that
- 30:01Speaker 6: if people have money, they tend to spend it. The
- 30:08Speaker 6: trouble is politicians said, well, let's just find a way
- 30:11Speaker 6: to give them money, thus Kenjian economics. And so it's
- 30:18Speaker 6: going to happen, you know, and it's not just the NCAA,
- 30:21Speaker 6: but all the world that lives in marketing, whether it's
- 30:26Speaker 6: social media influencers, all the way back down to radio
- 30:31Speaker 6: news programs, and that's the oldest to the newest, I
- 30:35Speaker 6: mean social media influence. You know what, You can go
- 30:37Speaker 6: back to the carnival barkers and the traveling salesmen show
- 30:44Speaker 6: up in your town. Haba haabahaba, come see the latest
- 30:47Speaker 6: new invention from the East coast. It's oil we've got
- 30:51Speaker 6: from a snake. And some of it was good, some
- 30:59Speaker 6: of it wasn't. Unfortunately, the bad actors got all the press.
- 31:02Speaker 6: So one presumes that if you're selling something, you're just
- 31:06Speaker 6: a greedy soob out to screw the little guy. That's
- 31:12Speaker 6: a Marxist mantra. By the way, are there people who
- 31:16Speaker 6: are out there trying to screw somebody over? Absolutely, because
- 31:19Speaker 6: we're human and we're corrupt and we have that in
- 31:23Speaker 6: us and if we don't fight it, but you look
- 31:25Speaker 6: for the good actors. I just did a piece was
- 31:28Speaker 6: just published yesterday. If you follow me on social media,
- 31:31Speaker 6: you saw it posted to my Facebook page and my
- 31:33Speaker 6: ex account at Seville Joe Thomas, where we talked about
- 31:38Speaker 6: big media losing touch because there's too many customers in
- 31:43Speaker 6: their store. And the same thing is true in collegiate
- 31:45Speaker 6: athletics when we look at the ratings, surely for the
- 31:49Speaker 6: final four and don't call me Shirley, are okay, not
- 31:54Speaker 6: necessarily up or down a whole lot over where they
- 31:57Speaker 6: have been. But it's all that preliminary stuff that's really
- 32:00Speaker 6: becoming hard for people to tune into. And the Internet
- 32:04Speaker 6: makes this great because the NCAA leaned into the Internet
- 32:10Speaker 6: saying this is awesome. Everyone who fills out their March
- 32:13Speaker 6: Madness brackets can watch it at work on their computers.
- 32:18Speaker 6: Then then bosses clamp down on that. Then they're smartphones,
- 32:22Speaker 6: and then bracketologists realized I don't need to watch the game.
- 32:28Speaker 6: I could just wait for the score to post on
- 32:31Speaker 6: my and I'll get an alord on my phone. Hey
- 32:35Speaker 6: South Carolina beat Yukon. All right, Now, I didn't have
- 32:38Speaker 6: to watch the game, and that's where the struggle is.
- 32:41Speaker 6: Now you don't have to watch the game. You used
- 32:43Speaker 6: to have to watch the game to know what the
- 32:45Speaker 6: score was. Now you don't. That's okay, It's just the thing.
- 32:49Speaker 6: Things is things. It's what you do with them that
- 32:52Speaker 6: make them good or bad. And there's a power mutual
- 33:00Speaker 6: service that goes along with bracketology. Yes it's gambling. Yes
- 33:05Speaker 6: it's gambling. But what we are in peril of, because
- 33:11Speaker 6: it has become such a big, metastasized industry, is we're
- 33:15Speaker 6: in peril of these leagues and these organizations turning to
- 33:21Speaker 6: the Congress and or the President for executive or legislative
- 33:27Speaker 6: relief from their indebtedness because there's too many customers in
- 33:31Speaker 6: the room. So it's not enough to create a promotional vehicle.
- 33:36Speaker 6: And that's all. A broadcasted sporting event is a promotional vehicle.
- 33:43Speaker 6: Athletics at a collegiate level and even in the high
- 33:45Speaker 6: school levels, are designed to teach you lessons about sportsmanship
- 33:50Speaker 6: and keep your physical activity up and those sorts of things.
- 33:54Speaker 6: But it's become mercantile because somebody said, hey, what if
- 33:58Speaker 6: we broadcast that high school football game? And then somebody said, hey,
- 34:02Speaker 6: how about we sponsor it? And at some point the
- 34:07Speaker 6: idea of broadcasting the high school football game to parents
- 34:11Speaker 6: who couldn't go to it has taken a backseat to
- 34:15Speaker 6: the selling advertising during it. And that's where the problem
- 34:19Speaker 6: is with all of our corrupted economics. It's and it's
- 34:25Speaker 6: making the case for the Marxists. So the NCAA eventually
- 34:29Speaker 6: is going to fall prey to it. They're going to
- 34:31Speaker 6: not be able to afford the name, image, likeness money
- 34:35Speaker 6: anymore because the advertisers aren't seeing people showing up at
- 34:40Speaker 6: the Mercedes Benz dealer the Tuesday after the men's National
- 34:45Speaker 6: Basketball Championship saying I want that sel six point fifty
- 34:49Speaker 6: I saw on the TV last night. They're not doing it,
- 34:53Speaker 6: and so eventually they're going to take their millions and
- 34:55Speaker 6: millions and millions of dollars and go home. And then
- 34:58Speaker 6: the colleges are going to be turning out their pockets
- 35:00Speaker 6: because they're going to burn through their massive endowments. And boys,
- 35:04Speaker 6: some of them have really big endowments, but they're going
- 35:08Speaker 6: to burn through them pretty quickly, giving student athletes the
- 35:10Speaker 6: money they've promised them. Then they're going to turn to
- 35:13Speaker 6: Congress because most of them are public universities, and certainly
- 35:17Speaker 6: many of them have alumni in Congress. Please help us
- 35:22Speaker 6: save us, bail us out. Will we have courageous politicians
- 35:27Speaker 6: who will be able to say, not really a constitutional thing.
- 35:33Speaker 6: Plus we're kind of broke to or are they going
- 35:37Speaker 6: to say, I.
- 35:38Speaker 7: Mister speaker, I have in my hands the Fully Funding
- 35:43Speaker 7: College Athletics Act of twenty thirty, which we've devoted fourteen
- 35:49Speaker 7: trillion dollars to making sure that the National Collegiate Athletic
- 35:54Speaker 7: Association is still able to provide student athletes with the sports,
- 35:58Speaker 7: provided that they let me play women's sports, because that's exciting.
- 36:02Speaker 6: We want to watch that. Oh, you don't think that
- 36:06Speaker 6: would be part of it. You don't think if Congress
- 36:09Speaker 6: bails out the NCAA they're gonna tell them. You know what,
- 36:12Speaker 6: let's let men play in the women's basketball tournament because
- 36:15Speaker 6: that can be fun. Let me see who's on the
- 36:19Speaker 6: line with us this Saturday morning. Good morning, you're on
- 36:21Speaker 6: the air with Joe. First thing, this morning. Who's this?
- 36:24Speaker 14: Good morning, Joe, It's Joel.
- 36:25Speaker 6: Good morning Joel. How are you doing, sir?
- 36:28Speaker 14: Okay, I'm still waking up normal time. My time is
- 36:32Speaker 14: still early early here.
- 36:33Speaker 6: But for those who are joining us in Prongress, our
- 36:36Speaker 6: friends on Long Island and in Massachusetts that don't hear.
- 36:39Speaker 6: Joel has left the sunny shores of Florida for the
- 36:43Speaker 6: relatively dry heat of Arizona. Uh there, and you know,
- 36:47Speaker 6: and we all you know, wish you the luck out
- 36:49Speaker 6: there for that. So what's on your mind for the
- 36:52Speaker 6: radio this morning?
- 36:54Speaker 14: Thank you? I think there's a couple of things on
- 36:56Speaker 14: all the topics you're talking about. Are you to teach taekwondo?
- 37:01Speaker 14: One of the things that I learned was never underestimate
- 37:05Speaker 14: your opponent. And then and then number two is there
- 37:10Speaker 14: was a Bruce Lee saying be like water. So when
- 37:14Speaker 14: you need to flow and be like liquid water, then flow.
- 37:17Speaker 14: When you need to be like ice, be like ice.
- 37:19Speaker 14: When you need to be like steam, to like steam.
- 37:21Speaker 14: But in today's world, we have computers, we have cell phones,
- 37:26Speaker 14: we have internet, we have satellite technology, and everybody wants
- 37:31Speaker 14: something done fast. And the other two things that I
- 37:34Speaker 14: learned growing up is when I was a scout, is
- 37:37Speaker 14: like be prepared. And then from the adults that told
- 37:40Speaker 14: me have good planning. And if the problem and the
- 37:46Speaker 14: problem with let's go with Iran. The problem with Iran is, oh, yeah,
- 37:49Speaker 14: we think we shot down all the you know, all
- 37:52Speaker 14: took missile sites and they don't have the capability. But
- 37:55Speaker 14: Iran is a big country.
- 37:57Speaker 6: Well, it rans a big country to all hang on to.
- 37:59Speaker 6: That thought is second.
- 38:00Speaker 10: And they in a study it was found that thirty

- 44:24Speaker 17: All across America, talk radio and the voices of freedom.
- 44:29Speaker 11: Hi, don't stop talking, don't stop sharing, don't stop laughing,
- 44:35Speaker 11: don't stop caring.
- 44:37Speaker 6: Karen, as long as you've got a voice, don't liver.
- 44:41Speaker 6: Stop here's the thing about this. And I love the
- 44:44Speaker 6: fact that here we are on w g H and
- 44:47Speaker 6: Greenwich and the banded Gunhill Road can be heard on
- 44:51Speaker 6: Gunhill Road. Now wouldn't we use it anyway? But here's
- 44:56Speaker 6: the thing about talking. Talking involves listening to And this
- 45:05Speaker 6: is where I think our media is falling apart. And
- 45:09Speaker 6: it goes back into this interview I gave to Barrett
- 45:12Speaker 6: Media about why we're here live on a Saturday morning,
- 45:17Speaker 6: about why we get up at five in the morning
- 45:19Speaker 6: and get on the radio and why are we Because
- 45:22Speaker 6: you need to not only hear what's going on, but
- 45:25Speaker 6: you need to be heard. You need to send me
- 45:28Speaker 6: a text, You need to send me an email, You
- 45:31Speaker 6: need to make a phone call to four three four
- 45:33Speaker 6: eight eight two four two one seven. Because all this
- 45:36Speaker 6: stuff is a sales pitch to you. Everyone is trying
- 45:43Speaker 6: to sell you on their mindset, on their narrative. Why
- 45:46Speaker 6: because we've fallen into this corruption of pure democracy, and
- 45:51Speaker 6: pure democracy is a dangerous animal. Why because in pure
- 45:56Speaker 6: democracy it's important to have the most people following you.
- 46:04Speaker 6: In liberty, it doesn't matter how many people follow you.
- 46:08Speaker 6: In liberty, it just means that you believe what you
- 46:11Speaker 6: believe and you can talk to people about it. And
- 46:13Speaker 6: you know what, disagreement is not the end of the story.
- 46:17Speaker 6: It's just part of the story. And a government that
- 46:25Speaker 6: gets in your way of doing that is a bad government.
- 46:27Speaker 6: I don't care what its constitution says. If people are
- 46:30Speaker 6: ignoring it, it's bad and you need to stand up
- 46:35Speaker 6: for your individual rights. And this is one of the
- 46:38Speaker 6: things all those Iranians that were getting shot and killed
- 46:41Speaker 6: by the Mullahs before the news blackout hit that we
- 46:46Speaker 6: don't see anymore because we can get news out of
- 46:49Speaker 6: the country. Just like those ladies we spoke to at
- 46:51Speaker 6: Seapac last weekend, these are individuals standing up up and
- 47:01Speaker 6: trying to be heard. And the hearing is the thing,
- 47:05Speaker 6: not the talking. It's the hearing. Joel's on the line
- 47:08Speaker 6: with us, and we were getting into that a little
- 47:10Speaker 6: bit talking about you know how we're fumbling the ball.
- 47:15Speaker 6: In a world where we have more technological ability to
- 47:19Speaker 6: share information, the authoritarians are working over time to try
- 47:24Speaker 6: to make it out to not be worth listening to.
- 47:29Speaker 6: And that's dangerous because when you have more opportunity to listen,
- 47:33Speaker 6: you should be listening more.
- 47:34Speaker 14: I don't know I'm not, you know, I'm not I'm
- 47:37Speaker 14: not in the military. I don't know all the planning,
- 47:40Speaker 14: but I'm sure the Mossad has, you know, people all around,
- 47:44Speaker 14: and I'm sure we have special forces in some areas too.
- 47:47Speaker 14: But it's a vast country and you can't go around saying, oh,
- 47:51Speaker 14: we've wiped out their military, we've wiped out because there's
- 47:56Speaker 14: a lot of cities that we don't even know about,
- 47:58Speaker 14: I mean, and we know about them.
- 48:00Speaker 6: They well, it's been an enigma for almost fifty years there,
- 48:05Speaker 6: and what is our intel. The problem with the Islamic
- 48:09Speaker 6: world is that Americans stick out like sore thumbs and
- 48:12Speaker 6: it's very hard to get reliable, you know, intel out
- 48:17Speaker 6: of some of those countries. So you know, there was
- 48:21Speaker 6: there way it could it have been a missile silo
- 48:23Speaker 6: we didn't know about. Sure, absolutely, it's it's a combat operation.
- 48:29Speaker 6: And so if you don't think, you know, Buster Douglas
- 48:33Speaker 6: can knock Mike Tyson out, you're crazy. But they shot
- 48:37Speaker 6: a plane down. It's not the end of the world.
- 48:40Speaker 6: But of course the left wing Trump haters say, see
- 48:43Speaker 6: Trump lied, people died. You know, it's the same thing
- 48:46Speaker 6: that I said earlier. The bloggers who were saying, see
- 48:49Speaker 6: Trump lied, there are boots on the ground now, and
- 48:53Speaker 6: it's like, come on, folks, can we just stop being
- 48:56Speaker 6: a one or a zero and live somewhere in the
- 48:58Speaker 6: middle and be intellectually honest. But they can't because it's
- 49:02Speaker 6: all or nothing and it's just it's crazy making, and
- 49:07Speaker 6: it's why people are tuning out. And I'm glad they're
- 49:11Speaker 6: tuning out of some media, but it's I was mentioning
- 49:13Speaker 6: this interview I gave to Barrett News Media and it's
- 49:18Speaker 6: a trade paper. I don't know everyone watched it. I
- 49:20Speaker 6: posted it, but I said, you know, our media is
- 49:24Speaker 6: suffering because we're serving the wrong customers. We're serving the
- 49:29Speaker 6: I don't know if you've ever been in a restaurant
- 49:32Speaker 6: and you're there and you're on a date and everything,
- 49:34Speaker 6: and you've scraped together enough money to go to this
- 49:36Speaker 6: fancy restaurant. Then the mayor or the owner of the
- 49:39Speaker 6: big tech company comes in and all the servers and
- 49:42Speaker 6: all the mayor d's go over to help him. You know, Oh,
- 49:45Speaker 6: here's your seat, sir, And all of a sudden, you
- 49:48Speaker 6: can't get a waiter to come over and refill your
- 49:50Speaker 6: coffee because they're all, you know, impressed by the big,
- 49:56Speaker 6: you know, lucrative customer that walked in. That's what's happened
- 49:59Speaker 6: to a lot of our business. This is where we
- 50:01Speaker 6: have fallen prey to Wall Street and all of that stuff.
- 50:04Speaker 6: But the media has latched onto this plane going down
- 50:07Speaker 6: is proof that Trump is screwed up and and Americans
- 50:11Speaker 6: are going to start dying. And it's the Civil War
- 50:13Speaker 6: all over again, and all the hair on fire stuff
- 50:16Speaker 6: that is going to drive people away from listening to
- 50:20Speaker 6: the news. And that's good for the authoritarians because then
- 50:24Speaker 6: you're not listening to the news. Joe.
- 50:27Speaker 14: Often you talk about the individual and how how the
- 50:31Speaker 14: individual has been tried to be destroyed, not only by
- 50:34Speaker 14: the Democrats, but some some Republicans are independents, And where
- 50:39Speaker 14: does where does one life become important? And and and
- 50:42Speaker 14: we know that all lives are all lives are important,
- 50:46Speaker 14: but we also have people that are trying to destroy life.
- 50:49Speaker 14: And the other thing is too, is that you when
- 50:52Speaker 14: you're mentioned about basketball, right, instead of just always being
- 50:56Speaker 14: on a defensive position, we need to be on an
- 50:59Speaker 14: offensive position. And that's what President Trump is doing. He's
- 51:02Speaker 14: clearing out the clutter, not just necessary with war, but
- 51:06Speaker 14: with our economy, with our energy, because if we don't
- 51:09Speaker 14: have if we don't have energy, we don't have a
- 51:12Speaker 14: better economy. Our dollar were already thirty nine trillion dollars
- 51:16Speaker 14: in plus in debt, and like you said, we could
- 51:19Speaker 14: be like Greece and fall down. And then the rest
- 51:22Speaker 14: of the rest of the places that are stronger, I
- 51:26Speaker 14: don't mean they're not as strong as us, but are
- 51:29Speaker 14: stronger at the time, could could really foul up the.
- 51:33Speaker 6: Works well, and the works is the thing. And you
- 51:36Speaker 6: talk about the individual, let's not forget we're you know,
- 51:39Speaker 6: coming up to the day we celebrated the resurrection of
- 51:42Speaker 6: the guy that taught us the individual is the important thing.
- 51:45Speaker 6: Remember Samaria when all his when all his boys went
- 51:49Speaker 6: running off to find the mayors and the elected officials
- 51:51Speaker 6: and the famous business owners in Samaria, and Jesus sat
- 51:56Speaker 6: down with the woman who had been shunned by everyone
- 51:59Speaker 6: in her community. Different tellings, different meetings, but basically she
- 52:04Speaker 6: is either a fallen woman, a prostitute, whatever, whatever it was.
- 52:07Speaker 6: Nobody in the community wanted to talk to her. Jesus did,
- 52:10Speaker 6: and and that's the message. That's the message we should
- 52:14Speaker 6: all be taking in that. But you have a blessed
- 52:17Speaker 6: Easter weekendcern and thank you for the call. I appreciate it.
- 52:21Speaker 6: Thanks Jeff four eight four three four eight a two
- 52:26Speaker 6: four two one seven on what that is? Can somebody
- 52:28Speaker 6: check the plug? There forth that on this Easter weekend.
- 52:32Speaker 6: So much more to get into, but remember it's about
- 52:35Speaker 6: you and anyone who's not serving you as the customer
- 52:40Speaker 6: isn't serving you. And it is all a service economy.
- 52:45Speaker 6: We're all out there trying to help one another and
- 52:48Speaker 6: pay our bills with it. My name is Bobby.
