• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome to a meeting of the minds crafted from decades
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: of talk show experience. An extension of the magic they've
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: created together on radio in the phenomenon called M & M.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Hot topics in the news and wisdom from life. It's
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Mark Davis and Mike Gallagher. This is M & M Extra.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: A hundred, I've just been told, by my other M partner.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: He's Mike Gallagher, famed, legendary national talk show host. I'm
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Mark Davis, Texas guy, your Texas talk show buddy. And,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: of course, everything we do here is brought to you
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: in part by our friends at Preborn. You can stand
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: for life today. By joining us and providing ultrasounds to
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: girls and women, you will double the likelihood that she
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: chooses life. By going to 833-850-BABY, 833-850-BABY, or go to
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: preborn.com slash mmextra. And Mike, just moments ago on your
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: radio show, we just did the big push to try
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: to fill up the lunch table. For people who want
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: to come help us put $ 3, 000 times five people for
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the 15 grand to do an actual ultrasound machine for
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: these folks. So that'd be kind of a cool thing
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: to do on episode 100 day.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: How you doing? Well, first of all, happy anniversary because
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we are 100 episodes in and it's not an anniversary milestone.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: It's an anniversary. What do you mean?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: You're such a school mom. Anniversary is a word meaning
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: a year. In fact, there's not even any such thing
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: as a six-month anniversary. The root of anniversary is annum,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: which is a year.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: You're so prissy. You're so prissy about things like that. Well,
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: and I know you well enough to know that in
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: your mind, because you know what date we started, you
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: don't really think that Yasmin is accurate. You don't think
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: it's the 100th episode anyway. Why in the world would
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I doubt her? Are you kidding?
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: This is a woman who milliseconds after we mentioned something,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: she can make imagery appear on the screen. She is
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: magical to me. She's incredible and she's not feeling good.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: So she's a little under the weather and she's right.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: We are 100 episodes in. I saw the look on
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: your face. You said, well, we started on the Star
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Wars day. I was measuring. There are, I guess, two
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: ways to keep track of this amazing journey. Counting the episodes,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: which I guess I will now do. and observing the calendar.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: So now we will have our anniversary on May.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: 4th of 2027.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: So let's look forward to episode number whatever that will be.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: So Mark won't participate today, but I am going to
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: celebrate my own 100th anniversary with Mark Davis. 100th anniversary?
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Are you high? What is going on with you? That's
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: 100 years.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: 100 days.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: It's 100 days. It's like when you get a new girlfriend.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: It's 100 episodes. There are weekends. God, can we have
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: a new girl? You have a new slate. Let's start over.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: This is crazy. It's our month-long anniversary. It's three weeks.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: I want to call it an anniversary. It's 100 years.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: I don't care. Potato, potato. But what I do know
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: and what I cannot get over is that in the
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: last five minutes, we got two more $ 3, 000 donors to
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: have lunch with you and me, which means there is
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: only one seat left. How cool is this? Now, this
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: is what we said we'd do, because you and I
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: are going to host a lunch of people who would
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: love to hang out with you and me in person.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Preborn offers an actual ultrasound machine for $ 15, 000. And I thought,
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: how cool would it be, Mark, if we had an
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: M & M extra ultrasound machine that we could donate
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: to Preborn? That would take five people to donate $ 3, 000 apiece. Well,
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: according to Tracy and Tracy limit, we have we got
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: two just now. That means we've got four total. We
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: had two already. Here's two more today. One more. How
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: about how you get to bring somebody? And you get.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: And by the way, everybody who does this gets to
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: bring somebody. So, you know, you're if you if you
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: cough up your 3000 for this last place, it's you
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: plus somebody else making 12 total people.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: No, you got it. And how neat. We now have
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: four $ 3, 000 donors who are going to join us for
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: lunch with their guests in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. That
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: means there is one seat left at the table. I
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: think it would be the coolest thing ever if our podcast... audience,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: actually made the fifth seat. Come on now. So call
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: right now. Tracy is with me today answering your calls, 800-655-6453.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: If you want to have a seat at the table,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: it's a $ 3, 000 tax-deductible donation. You're going to be saving babies'
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: lives for years. So if you are a pro-life person,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: you can absolutely put your money where your mouth is. Again,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: tax-deductible to pre-born, $ 3, 000. You're and four other wonderful people
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: and their guests at a date that will all work
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: out with one another. But we're going to give the
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: podcast audience, unlike the talk show audience, one chance right
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: now in the next half hour or so to call 800-655-6453,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: talk to Tracy, make the donation.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Mark, you can never— A quick word about time because
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: I'm scared to death of something. A quick word about time.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: This is something that you are speaking— At 1209 Eastern,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: 1109 Central. And this is a right now thing. It's
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: a live stream thing. So if it's the middle of
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the afternoon and whatever on Apple and Spotify, this ship
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: has probably sailed. If not, and somebody is interested in this,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you want to throw them the email address where they
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: can shoot you a quick email and say, hey, did
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: you get that fifth one?
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: If not, I'll take it. That's a great idea. Mike
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: at Mike online.com. If you want to email us and
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: you're listening today, maybe. And that's the beauty. You know,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: one of the people, you know, me, you made fun
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: of me because I hover over the chat and all
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: the people that are on the chat.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: I think for the first time ever, I had a
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: couple of minutes, but yet I hopped on with, I
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: guess my like personal YouTube channel, which I haven't touched
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: in 12 years.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: And so I've got like some, what am I? I'm
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: like Mark Davis, six, seven, four, three, two, or something
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: like that. And I hopped on there and everybody went, ah,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Mark's here. I said, do not get used to it.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I'm way too ADD.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Well, get used to me. I don't mind doing it.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: And Ken in Columbia. has written, he has seen all
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: 100 episodes, not always live, but if I don't watch
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: it live, I get around to it eventually. And that's
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: the beauty of podcast, Mark. That's the podcast space that
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: we're in. So you're right. So you've got a few
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: minutes to call 800-655-MIKE, 800-655-6453. But if you're listening later
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: than noon Eastern, 11 Central, and you're not live with us,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: You're just with the podcast whenever it's at your convenience,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: which is great. Then send me an email if you're interested,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: mike at mikeonline.com. We've got one open slot. That's it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: And that's how cool is that. But, Mark, it speaks
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: to the big heart and the guts of the American
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: people and of humanity in general. You've seen the stories already.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: The passengers are reunited with their families in Tel Aviv.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: After this emergency landing, when one pilot stabbed the other,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: one of the– this is a wild story. And I
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: don't know if you've seen it yet. This just broke.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: They've got video of the fight to take back the plane.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Lord, I just saw still photographs of a couple of
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: passengers with bloodstains. For those that don't know, it's a flight–
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: it's Air Dubai or whatever they call it. And they're
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: coming from, was it, I guess, Dubai, somewhere in the
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Arab world, into Tel Aviv, which we'll talk about whether
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: that's a great idea either. And in the cockpit, the
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: pilot starts stabbing the co-pilot. It's like, wait a minute,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: what's going on? I think it was the other way around.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: The co-pilot stabbed the captain.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. And then somebody else, and then naturally
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: a Dallas pilot, because there's nothing but pilots and flight
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: attendants that live in Dallas, Fort Worth. They corrected me
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: something about engineer, first engineer. But the way the media
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: is characterizing this and covering it, So who knows? The
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: co-pilot stabbed the captain, attempted to hijack the plane with
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: an intent, according to the Israeli officials, of crashing the
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: plane with all 174 people on board in a major
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: jihadist attack. It was jihad, Mark. Israel's 9-11.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, Israel already has October 7th, and now they
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: would have had 9-9-3.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Who knows who this monster could have flown it into.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: First-hand accounts describe a chaotic struggle. Passengers and crew rushed
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: toward the cockpit. They subdued the suspected attacker, and they
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: helped land the plane on the ground in Saudi Arabia.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: How do you suppose that happened?
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine, but the first thing that comes back
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: to my broken heart is United 93. Would that that
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: could have happened instead of the crash in Shanksville? We're
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: still so proud of those people. It's the first victory
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: in the war on terror. It goes back seemingly forever,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: 25 years plus a few days. But this was prevented.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: And I've floated something for two straight days on the radio.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I don't think I've run it by you. This is
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: not me saying, I think something big and terrible is
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: going to happen. I wouldn't do that.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: That would be weird.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: But between raging anti-Semitism, the continuing Israel-Palestine thing, an entire
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: American political party saying Israel is doing genocide, an entire
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: American political party spreading, seething anti-Semitism, an Iran war that
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: we can't seem to get out of, And the entire
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: landscape of American politics featuring a Republican Party and some
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Democrats who are sort of pushing back against Islamofascism, put
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: all those things into a bowl. I just feel like
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: there's something weird going on. There's something nerve-ending, seem really frayed.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I just feel like everybody organizationally, CIA, military, or you
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: at the grocery store should have our head on a
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: swivel right now. There's just something about this moment in time.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: And in this moment in time, like the brave, heroic
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: passengers of United Flight 93, these passengers did storm the
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: cockpit and more details are being released. And here's the latest.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: The pilot who was wounded, he was stabbed. But because
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: he wasn't killed, he managed to land the plane. The
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: passengers and the other crew members subdued the co-pilot. They
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: tied him up with headphone cords. They used headphone cords
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: to bind his hands and his feet. And the pilot
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: was able to land the plane. See, the problem with
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: United 93, of course, is those monsters, those cowards. those evildoers,
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: they killed the pilot in Copa. They slit their throats. Instantly, yep.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: And so they were dead, and they were able to
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: take over. Because I think those passengers, if one of them,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: the pilot or the copilot of that United flight could
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: have survived, they might have gotten that plane to the ground.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know if a passenger is capable of landing
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: a 737 or whatever United.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: We all watch way too much TV or movies. Haven't
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: we all seen whether it's a Piper Cub or a
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Cessna or an Air Jetliner? Somebody puts on the headphones
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: and somebody in the tower just manages to talk them down.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: I'd love to think I could do that. I probably
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: could not.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. But look, God bless those
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: souls of United Flight 93. And God bless the passengers
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: on this fly Dubai plane who fought back, who subdued
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: the bad guy. And a bitter reminder that terrorism is
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: around us all the time. This was, again, according to
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: the Israeli defense minister, an attempted jihadist terrorist attack. Now,
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: let's go over to Iran. I can't get over this.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: The feared, dreaded monsters of Iran's guard, the– you know,
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: this horrible– They have a motto. Of course, it's always
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: been death to America, right? That's a big motto for them,
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: death to America. Now they've got a new one. Vote
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Democrat in the United States midterms. I'm not kidding you.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps put out a 25-page letter
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: this week, Mark. That's so awesome. Addressed to the American people,
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: urging them to oppose Trump. and vote for Democrats. So,
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: like Jonathan Turley said, not a good sign when your
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: slogan is now death to America, vote Democratic. Mark, how
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: do the Democrats... Do you think reporters are going to
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: ask the Democrat candidates about this one?
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, would you like to maybe turn down this advice?
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: And the little snippet, I wish I could give credit
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: where credit is due, is just somebody's Twitter post from
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: a few days ago. The four things that have killed
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: an enormous number of people, communism, socialism, abortion, and Islam...
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: And Democrats support all four. How can we not succeed?
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: How can this not be worth something on November 3rd?
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I know. It's got to be worth everything. Look, and
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: polls are starting to come in saying, oh, maybe Tallarico
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: won't be a slam dunk. There's a poll that shows
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Paxton up by three. Polling in Minnesota, that U.S. Senate race,
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: Michelle Tafoya. There's three polls in a row that show
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: her within a point of Peggy Flanagan. Mark, Minnesota's in play.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, who was the last Republican guy? Norm Coleman,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: remember him? I mean, you're not going to get Ted
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Cruz in Minnesota, nor are you in Maine, but I'll
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: take anybody with an R by his or her name.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: And Michelle Tafoya is awesome from the sports broadcasting journalism
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: sidelines to sort of– she had a podcast in Salem
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: World there for a while, may still. And now– probably
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: a little busy now. Now running for the U.S.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Senate.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: She's just one of those– Listen, I don't care what
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: sex anybody is or what color anybody is in our party.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: I really don't.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: But amid all this, will it suburban women? Republicans have
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: a huge problem with what suburban women are okay with
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: having 17 genders. Suburban women are okay with porous borders.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. So God bless Michelle Tafoya. Minnesota,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: just get out there and help her across the finish line.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: That would be great.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: Well, speaking of getting across the finish line, I want
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: you to get across the finish line of pain. Pain
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: relief is everything. Portions of our show are sponsored by
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: Relief Factor. And every day, I get the joy of
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: telling you about this great, great product. This is something
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: that when we decided to embark on this podcast together,
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: let me give you a little backstory here. Pull the
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: old proverbial curtain back. I've endorsed Relief Factor for years. Mark,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: you were new to the Relief Factor family, and we
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: decided to get it to you as we started the podcast,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: and you and I could endorse it together. And boy,
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: are you all about Relief Factor these days.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Well, obviously filling in for a bunch of Salem shows
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and listening to a bunch of Salem shows, I've heard,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: you know, everybody's in the Relief Factor studios. When I
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: fill in for anybody, I'm in the Relief Factor studios.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: I've heard of these people forever and ever. So when
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: the opportunity came to be part of the actual, you know,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: the pitch team for this, one of the things that
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: occurred to me when we were sort of getting started was,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Do I really have any pain issues? Then two things happen.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I had a kind of a rotator cuff thing where
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: it was hard to throw the ball to the dogs.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: And the other thing was called getting old. The other
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: thing was called turning 68 or 69 here in a
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: few weeks, where just in the morning, I kind.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Of, yeah, can I get the aches here, Mildred? I
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: And relief factor, darn if relief factor hasn't taken care
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: of both. I'm doing things with my shoulder. I never
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: thought possible. I'm getting up ready to roll and it
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: can take care of your problems too. At 1-800-THE-NUMBER-4-RELIEF, 1-800-THE-NUMBER-4-RELIEF.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: relief or relieffactor.com. Add me to the list of success stories.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: Amen. Love it for you, Mark, and love it for
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: all of us. And speaking of getting old, look, I
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: found out kind of shockingly that I've got some plaque
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: buildup in my arteries. I'm now joined the cardiovascular disease club,
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: not loving that very much, but I met with the
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: cardiologist yesterday, had a great visit with him. He's good.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: He's going to throw everything in the kitchen sink. He said, look,
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: You're doing all the right things. He said, you've caught it.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: You got a 52% blockage in the widow maker. That's moderate.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: It's not severe. We don't do a stent. We don't
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: do any surgery. We're not even going to do a catheterization.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: We don't need to because what you need to do
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: is stop it right here, right now. And he told me,
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: he looked me in the eye. He said, you've lost
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: how much in the last few months? I said, 41 pounds.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: He said, since when? I said, since June 25th. He said, how?
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: I said, PhD weight loss. I'm doing a commercial for
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: the doctor. But he loved it because, look, he's all
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: about weight loss in that office. You've got to get
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: the weight under control because that's one of the big
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: factors that contributes to coronary disease. artery disease and plaque
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: blockage and all of that. PhD has truly been a
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: godsend for me. And yes, I've lost 41 pounds since
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: June the 25th. I put weight back on the past year,
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: but I know what to do now. I know how
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: to follow their guidelines. I've got my coach, Ebony, who
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: I visit with every week. You can schedule your consultation today.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: Mention Mark and Mike. And Mark, they're going to add
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: Two free weeks to the program, and they'll even cover
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: the cost of your food. That's a $ 1, 500 value.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: And Mike's story can easily be your story. Eight out
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: of 10 PhD clients dropped 10% or more of their
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: body weight. 96% reported better energy.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: So again, 864-644-1900.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: 864-644-1900 or myphdweightloss.com. We're taking care of people in all
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: kinds of ways.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: We're doing our best. And President Trump, God bless him,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: he's taking care of the American people. I don't want
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: to bury the lead. And I probably, you and I
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: probably should have spent more time on this this week.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Maybe we can revisit it again tomorrow, but let's do
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: it today. America.gov. Have you seen what this is all about?
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: It is so organic and sounds so natural that I
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: thought it already existed. I mean, is there such a thing?
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: If you had asked me a month ago, a year ago,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: is there such a thing as America.gov? I would have thought,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: seems like there would be. But there wasn't.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: But there is now. There is. And it's, you know,
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Buck Sexton wrote an essay about how we underestimate the
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: technology that we have at our fingertips. And he is
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: so right. I was thinking about this lately, too. You
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: need a special tool to fix something, he asks Buck.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Amazon will have it in your door within about three hours.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: Instead of you driving around from hardware store to hardware
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: store trying to find if it's in stock or not.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: You want to have a meeting with 10 other people? Okay,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: you can Zoom instead of having to fly to Peoria
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: for 24 hours with three connections in Dubuque. You know,
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: over and over, the examples are endless. But people know
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: that the government, we spend billions of hours every year
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: trying to navigate through government paperwork. And Trump comes along
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: and says, we should do better. We can consolidate. You
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: need a passport? You go to America.gov. You want Medicare enrollment?
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: You go to America.gov. There's thousands, Mark, of places that
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: people have had to go. Now it's all consolidated at America.gov.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Passports, veterans benefits. I mean, I saw a clip of
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: him just sort of rattling through what the various things are.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: And I just this it is an idea so good.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: It's not only did it seem like it should have happened,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: but it seemed like it should have already existed. And
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: I thought maybe it kind of did. And now it does.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: And I and I hope.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Hello.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: I hope this kind of resonates with people, not like
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: people will go, oh, we did America.gov. I'm going to
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: vote for him now. But it just adds to the
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: list of things about love of country, convenience for citizens,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: making government work for people. That is kind of the
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: reasons why we as Republicans say vote for us.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: And can I share? I'm sorry if I'm going to
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: rub people the wrong way. It's an artificial intelligence-powered portal. Hey,
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: data centers are helping to provide it. It's a single
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: entry point for Americans to navigate through federal government information
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: and services. Now, I want to play for you Andrew
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Ross Sorkin. Let me do the setup. Joe Kernan is
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: a Trump-hating CNBC host, okay? He hates Trump. He hates conservatives.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: He's a typical NBC kind of a guy. He's over
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: on CNBC. He's got Andrew Ross Sorkin with him on
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: his show yesterday. And Kernan has to sit there stunned
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: as Andrew Ross Sorkin, who himself is not a Trump fan, okay?
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Andrew Ross Sorkin doesn't like Trump, I don't think, any
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: better than Kernan. But Andrew said he gushed about this
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: new America.gov website while Kernan sat there stunned. I give
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: you this effusive praise from a guy over on CNBC.
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: Forget about all politics. So yesterday after we did the
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: show together, I spent much of the day still in D.C.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: at the America.gov announcement. And actually Jensen and– and musk
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: came later and and all you know a lot of
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: them were coming back and forth speaking what they did
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: with america.gov yesterday was unbelievable. This is the Gebbia project.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: And it was, I mean, what they did with that website,
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: if that website is able to do all the things
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: that they say it's going to be able to do.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: That Oz was talking about.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Which is basically the front.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Face for 27,000.
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: For 29,000 websites, the ability to get a passport, the
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: ability to get your Medicare. I mean, it was like
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: being at a product, like being at an Apple product announcement.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: And when they went through what they did, and the
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: president was there in the morning and walked through what
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: they were doing, and Marco Rubio was there, Scott Besant
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: was there, the whole cabinet was there. It was one
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: of those moments where you actually thought the government was
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: working for you, really. And Jebbia deserves an extraordinary amount
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: of praise for it. Again, whatever your pot doesn't matter.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: When people talk about what government is supposed to do,
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: This product, if it actually, again, there's a lot of
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: things that have to come in 2027. Some of it
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: they were launching yesterday. Some of it they were showing
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: what's going to come. If it does all the things
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: it's supposed to do, that's great.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: I have the warmest, fuzziest feeling right now.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: And by the way, the president deserves credit for that.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: And he deserves credit for putting Jeb in that role.
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: And Jeb and his team put it all together.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Now I'm getting hot flashes. Hot flashes.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Real quick, and the reason for his reaction, and if
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: anybody else is scrunching up their eyebrows, Joe Kernan's not
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: a Trump hater.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: The last 10 clips I've seen of Joe, and this
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: is an outfit that is owned by NBC, so it's noteworthy.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: I don't think he's a raging MAGA conservative, but Joe
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Kernan's all right. And so that's why his, ooh, this
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: is crazy, was because the New York Times guy– was
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: heaping praise on it. So therein lies the surprise.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: That makes more sense. I mean, look, I admit I
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: don't watch a lot of CNBC. I think it's fair
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: to assume that just about everybody on CNBC or MSNOW
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: are going to be anti-Trump. Fair guess. But that's a
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: great thing. And look, it's a game changer. But did
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: you notice what he said to Mark about 2027? Now,
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: you and I know that if the Democrats win in
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: 34 days— They're going to undo or try to undo
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: every single thing that Trump has accomplished. All of it, Mark.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: All of it. Now, so you want this? You want
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: more of this? Then you know how to vote. Tracy
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: came up with a list. of things that the Trump
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: administration has achieved in September. Let me share this list
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: with you. Just September. Do we have time? It's just September.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: They're big. Talk about this air traffic thing with these pilots.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: A big major overhaul of the aging air traffic control
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: system in America. Trump's been talking about this for a
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: couple of years. A huge, brand-new air traffic control system
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: that is underway and huge, huge rollout of an AI-powered
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: smart tool at D.C. area airports, billions of dollars there.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: How about $ 15 billion steel plant in Iowa? Iowa, it's
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: going to be the largest steel plant in U.S. history. Mark,
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: steel's back. And Trump has said that we need to
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: bring steel back. A $ 95 billion infusion into our economy
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: over the next decade. Let me keep going. September, most
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: favored nation drug pricing. Look, I'm facing this now. I'm
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: now into the new world of statins and Rabatha or
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: Rebutha or whatever the hell I got to take. But
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: one of the drugs was 500 bucks. My doctor said, no,
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: it's not. We got your medical. We'll figure out, you know,
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: it's Medicare and all that. But there is now most
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: favored nation drug pricing. Drug prices are plummeting throughout all
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: 50 states. Now, how about the Texas power grid? The
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Energy Department announced a $ 2 billion power grid upgrade this
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: 31 projects, 26 states, $ 5. 25 billion with matching funds, expected
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: to unlock 23 gigawatts of capacity, enough for 16 million homes.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: This is all just September. And then, of course, as
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: we've been talking about, the America.gov single digital front door
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: announced September 29th. Mark, I mean, the joke used to be,
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: are you tired of too much winning money? But we
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: are I know there is so much good.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: And I and I and I know that I know
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: people watching and listening going, yeah, how about the war?
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: How about affordability? OK, we get it. We get it.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: We get it.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon. 9-11 happened and it
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: was horrible. You can't get people necessarily to appreciate something
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: that has not happened. Wouldn't it be great to go
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: back and prevent 9-11? And I'm not suggesting that this
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: war has absolutely prevented an Iranian nuclear attack on New
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: York or Los Angeles, but it might have. And garnering
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: some appreciation for that, that there's huge security value in
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: having Iran disabled in a nuclear fashion. I had a
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: call from a gentleman today on the radio who said
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: that I think he has a friend who's an Iranian
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: national living here. And they thought– and they're inclined to
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: be supportive of Trump being aggressive about Iran. But they
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: said they thought he was going to– here we go–
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: finish the job and then they have a brand new
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: regime and everything would be great. I don't know if
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: that was ever in the cards, at least in this
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: short term. But there have absolutely been an upside to
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: the war. And as far as affordability, that vexing A word, affordability–
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Look at the red states.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Look at the blue states. Which ones are more affordable?
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Run America like a red state. These are arguments we
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: can make. And those things you just mentioned, the actual
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Trump record, run on the Trump record and do it
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: with courage and do it with confidence.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. I mean, and don't look back because the truth
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: of the matter is we're going to we could win
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: this thing. As long as, you know, we show up,
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: it's just the craziest thing. It's like, look, look at
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: my health thing right now. The doctor told me, if
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: you do nothing, this plaque is going to progress and
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: you're going to be in big trouble. And he, look,
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: there's no guarantees. He even said to be, to be
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: candid enough. There are some people that try everything and
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: the plaque progresses anyway, and we don't know why. I
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: know that. And look, God's going to do what God does.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: But the truth of the matter is, I'm not going
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: to do nothing. I'm going to do what I can
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: so I can live a long, healthy, happy life and
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: be here with my buddy for years to come on
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: this podcast. Well, if you do nothing, if you don't
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: show up and vote, then we're going to get a
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: country that is unrecognizable. I mean, it'll be so bad.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: The whole country will turn into... You know, San Francisco,
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: whole country will turn into L.A. or, you know, these
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: big blue cities. And they're, Mark, they're hell holes. They're
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: hell holes. I got to go now. I just found
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: out I got to go to New York three times
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: in the next five weeks. I'm thinking, oh, crap. Here
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: we go, right? I mean, you just, and I joke about, well,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: I hope I don't get lit on fire on the subway.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: You're going to smell like weed when you come home.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: But I'm also going to take United. Are you following
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: the United... Airlines, Delta, American Airlines, the whole drama about
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Elon Musk's Starlink Wi-Fi on the planes?
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Have you followed this drama? I just got off an
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: American flight, flew American because it's DFW. You pretty well
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: have to most of the time to Santa Barbara and back.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: And for the first time, remember, just by signing on
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: to the– because we are frequent flyers for them. So
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: we were able to get free Wi-Fi, I think, for
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: the first time in my life. Starlink, of course, is
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: the whole drama. methodology of providing Wi-Fi on these planes
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: and people just swear by it. They think it's great.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: I have yet to experience it.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: Have you? And what's the story? So you didn't have,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Starlink wasn't on your flight? I just regular garden variety Wi-Fi.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: And I flew United. Yeah, they're offering free Wi-Fi now,
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: I think on most of the carriers, if you're one
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: of their frequent flyers or you just remember their SkyMiles
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: on Delta or United and all that. But what they're
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: doing now is, is rolling out Elon Musk's Starlink on
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: just about every airline in the world.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Cool.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: Except Delta. Now, you want to know why?
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: Because Ed Bastian, the CEO of Delta, apparently hates Elon Musk.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: And it's been reported that Ed Bastian said, we're not
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: going to deal with Elon Musk. We're not going to
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: deal with him. We're not going to provide– I mean,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: here's the headline. The Delta CEO reportedly trashes Elon to
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: explain why Delta is rejecting Starlink. Delta is going to
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: use apparently an inferior Wi-Fi system from Amazon next year
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: in beta form. And supposedly, Ed Bastian said, quote– We
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: do not want to be with Elon Musk. Trust me.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: If you know his reputation, it's all true what they
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: say about him. Now, all these airline CEOs are... I mean,
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: the guy from United, man, look at his history. But
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: they're not. This guy's a dumbass.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: This is Mark's TDS axiom number two. Trump hatred makes
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: smart people stupid. Look, that's just stupid on steroids.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: And it's hurting his passengers.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: Of course.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. I'm a frequent flyer. If
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: I don't have Wi-Fi, I'm a mess. There's nothing like
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: Wi-Fi on a flight. But the Delta Wi-Fi, pardon me,
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: is crap. It's, it's, it's janky. It freezes it. You
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: lose the people are telling me, and I had listeners
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: call the show today and viewers. The Starlink experience on
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: a United Airlines flight or Southwest, Southwest is having it
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: installed too, American Airlines, they say it's faster than your
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: Wi-Fi at home. Golly Moses. Wow. At 35,000 feet. Oh,
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: great call, Ed Bastian. Don't give your customers that. I
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: do not understand people. I do not understand people. Dumbasses.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: I want to weave something into our last block of messaging,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: and on the other side— Not like the Dubai airliner.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: I want to hijack our last couple of minutes, if
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: you'll let me, for a movie. It is one of
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: the most impactful films Lisa and I have seen in years.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: And I do not see it coming. It's a couple
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: of minutes away. But on your earlier theme, here's my
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Marlon Perkins Mutual of Omaha thing.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: What you were talking about a few minutes ago. The
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: pitch Republicans should make– we love this country. There's an optimism.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: The Democrat thing is America is a hellhole, huge problems.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Republicans are why and just so elect us by default.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: We say we know we have problems but we are
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: the people to solve them and we have optimism and
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: big hearts and big brains and big energy. And the
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: kind of thing that based on love of this country,
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: and it's kind of like the way that the AI
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: thing goes, you can jump under the bed and be
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: scared to death of AI. Let's observe all the concerns
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: that people have. I get let's be vigilant about all
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: those things, but let's embrace this and see what kind
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: of positives we can get out of it. I think
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: that's a good way to think about AI. Now, if
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: you're in a really good optimistic mood about AI, you
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: may or may not want to go and get a
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: hold of Carbon Zero, one of the greatest AI books.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: It's the AI dystopian world of Craig Stanfill. It is
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: just fantastic. It's a story Carbon Zero. where some researchers,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: some mid-level people, there's an AI named Xerxes, and they
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: give it a couple of little tasks. They kind of
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: give it its sort of sea legs, like, oh, look
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: what it can do. And then they give it something
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: really big to do that seems like a great idea.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Things do not go well. And it's incredibly compelling. And
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: you've spoken to Craig, and I just want to get everybody.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: We were doing the Kindle pre-order. Now it's there in real,
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: tangible book form. Hop on Amazon, speaking of Amazon, and
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: do Carbon Zero by Craig Stanfill, AI fiction of the
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: highest order.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: It's here now. Go to Amazon and order Carbon Zero.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: We did the pre-order, as Mark said, for a long time.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: Now it's here. So before we hear about Mark's movie choice,
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: let's get you to get that book, Carbon Zero, available
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: at Amazon. And we have a few minutes left in
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: today's live version on YouTube of the podcast. And so far,
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: we have one more slot for lunch with Mark and
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Mike in the Dallas-Fort Worth area if you want to
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: make that contribution of $ 3, 000 to Preborn. Because $ 15, 000, and
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: we're going to do it. We're going to get the fifth. Oh,
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: we're totally going to. I promise. It's done. I mean,
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: we got four out of five. We've got four slots filled.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: Four of you have wonderfully donated $ 3, 000 and we'll get
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: to $ 15, 000. We're going to provide an M & M
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: extra ultrasound machine to Preborn that'll save lives for years
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: to come. But if that's a little out of your
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: price range. Look, you understand the message from Preborn. They
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: provide free ultrasounds to women who are ready to either
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: get an abortion or maybe bring that baby into the world.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: When a young woman sees her baby on an ultrasound,
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: it doubles the chance she'll choose life. So please support ultrasound.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: pre-born and get these ultrasounds going. All you have to
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: do is call 833-850-BABY, 833-850-BABY, 833-850-2229, or go to preborn.com
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: slash mmextra, preborn.com slash mmextra. We're all on the edge
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: of our seats. Tell us about your movie pick. We
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: go to movies.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: We find things that we– and we don't always go
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: to the theater because sometimes we see one and go, eh,
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: that will be streaming in two weeks. Let's wait for
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: it to come to the house because I love movies
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: at the house. But every once in a while, we
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: say let's go to– let's go to– and usually it's
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: kind of the big blockbuster, Odyssey and stuff like that
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: I wanted to do in the theater.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: This one, we did.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Lisa was kind of the locomotive running the train on
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: this because she just thought this would really be just
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: one of those sort of heartwarming films. Now– It's Brad
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Pitt and a dog.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, I saw the trailer for this.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so did I, which means it's him and
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: the dog in the wilderness. So you pretty well know
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: what it's going to be. Brad Pitt and a dog
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: have a tough time in the wilderness. Things happen, and
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: at the end, I'm sure it's compelling and interesting. But
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: I thought, I bet it's pretty good. I did not
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: expect to come out of this film and tell you
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: that I'd be able to talk about it.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: And Lisa needs counseling.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, you ever come out of a movie and
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: you're kind of teary-eyed because it's really affected you? 10, 15,
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: 30 minutes later, it's like, honey, are you okay? She
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: just keeps thinking about him and the dog. And I
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: don't know, and I know you're a dog person. We're
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: dog people. I don't know if you have to be.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: You probably don't. Brad Pitt is James Belmont, a retired
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: Special Forces Army officer who And his dog, Odie, played
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: actually by four dogs because of labor laws, I'm sure.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: And it takes place in Alaska, but it's shot in
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: New Zealand. And they're on an Alaska sojourn. First of all,
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: the setup, if you ever see anybody get into a
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Cessna plane and go up into Alaska, just don't because
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: someone is going to die. Something terrible is going to happen.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: And in this case, it does. I won't tell anybody anything.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: The plane crashes and James Belmont, Brad Pitt, and this dog,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: the dog was his war dog. That dog got his
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: leg blown off and has a prosthetic. So all I'm
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: going to tell you is they have an experience. They
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: go through things. They were bonded when the movie began.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: Their bond as it progresses is so rich and so
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: magnificently portrayed. by director David Ayer. I don't know if
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: it's Oscar stuff. I just don't know. There's movies that
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: are deemed for greatness and bound for awards on top
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: of awards. I hope it does. But I'm just going
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: to tell you, what do I always say, Mike? What
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: do I always say? The determining factor is, did I care?
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Did I care?
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: I can't remember. when I've cared so much about something
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: on film. So if this thing is playing, if this
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: thing is playing somewhere near you, the heart of the beast,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: the dog deserves an Oscar. The stupid dog is one
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: of the greatest performers of the age. And it might
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: be my favorite Brad Pitt movie. And it's, I can't,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: cannot say enough about it. It is just, it's about people.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: It's about the, and I want to say it's a
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: dog movie.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, of course. What's the name of the movie? The
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: heart of the beast, the heart of the beast. The
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: heart of the beast. So just do it and thank
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: me later. It is.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: And I really, I hope you'll find the ability to,
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: cause I want to, I want you to, you know,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: if you come by and go, it was all right,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: I'll we'll, we'll talk about that.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: But, uh, and look, I'm probably not, if you love,
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm a dog person and love, love, love
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: dogs and Brad Pitt's great. I'll tell you what, I
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: think over the years, I've had a chance to see
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: screen movies and sometimes they'll ask you for a blurb
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: or a little endorsement that you can give. So this
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: is good. I'm going to notify the producers, the people
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: behind the marketing and say, Mark Davis says, go see
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: Heart of the Beast and you'll need therapy. So that's
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: a great, what a great endorsement. Hey, you may not
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: need to.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: Do not have immediate dinner plans with anybody after this film.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: You will need time. You will need a moment. Why
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: do I want to go get therapy after a movie?
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: You think I'm going to want to be a wreck?
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: Do they all die? I guess the dog dies at
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: the end.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to say a word. Not a word. Well,
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: now you got me wanting to see it but dreading
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: it because I'm going to be a wreck. Look, I
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: get emotional in a McDonald's commercial on TV. so you're
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: going to have me go to a movie and be
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: a basket case so on the happy note we hope
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: M & M Extra doesn't cause you to have therapy
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: we want you to be happy.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: We hope that it is therapy we hope that this
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: is cathartic for everyone and that we're saving people's psychiatry
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: bills with this exercise.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: And quick programming note, tomorrow our normal M & M
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: Extra and then on Friday we're going to interview Manning Kimmel,
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: who's the grandson of of Admiral Kimmel, who was scapegoated
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: for Pearl Harbor. You're not going to want to miss it.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: It's fascinating. He's got a great book out. I love you.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: I love this audience. And I love the fact that
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: we've made it through 100 episodes of M & M Extra, Mr. Davis.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: Ready for 101. God bless everybody. See you on 101.
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: Take care. Bye, everybody.
