• 0:53
  Speaker 9: isn't afraid of saying radio, oh to.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: We're a content creator, you know.
• 0:58
  Speaker 9: I don't know what that means, and honestly neither does anybody,
• 1:02
  Speaker 9: but we want to be undeclarative. That way, we don't
• 1:06
  Speaker 9: have to stand for anything, and we might not tell somebody. Well,
• 1:09
  Speaker 9: I don't like radio. I like podcasts only, so I
• 1:13
  Speaker 9: don't try to be all things to all people. I
• 1:15
  Speaker 9: think we have some Esop's fables that explain why that's
• 1:20
  Speaker 9: a fool's errand but anyway, on the radio program that'll
• 1:23
  Speaker 9: tell you what went on yesterday, we will give you
• 1:26
  Speaker 9: our analysis of what went on yesterday. But we believe
• 1:29
  Speaker 9: in come hell or high water, finding out how it's
• 1:32
  Speaker 9: impacting you where you are, and you might be part
• 1:35
  Speaker 9: of a group that wants to get a message out,
• 1:38
  Speaker 9: and that's on you. You can come with your talking points.
• 1:43
  Speaker 9: If I sense an agenda caller, I'll hear you, and
• 1:46
  Speaker 9: I'll challenge you to debate on subject matter that I
• 1:51
  Speaker 9: don't believe you have any backing on. You're just reading
• 1:55
  Speaker 9: talking points. Hey, hey, ho ho, something something's got to go.
• 2:00
  Speaker 9: I've heard all the chance, I've heard all the permutations
• 2:03
  Speaker 9: of it. I've been sprayed with pepper spray. So your
• 2:06
  Speaker 9: disagreements on the phone not going to bother me as
• 2:09
  Speaker 9: long because I don't think you can get to me
• 2:11
  Speaker 9: with pepper spray or tear gas like I've been before.
• 2:14
  Speaker 9: So and we'll have some fun. I mean, if you
• 2:17
  Speaker 9: really truly believe something, share it with us. If you
• 2:20
  Speaker 9: see something different in the story. It's like the guy
• 2:23
  Speaker 9: teasing me about trying to translate el menshow because Americans
• 2:28
  Speaker 9: in Spanglish land will say, oh, he must be the Minsch.
• 2:31
  Speaker 9: Then no, that's el Menschow does not mean he's the Minsch.
• 2:37
  Speaker 9: Of course, there are several looking at me saying, what's
• 2:39
  Speaker 9: a mins show? He's the guy, you know. It's just
• 2:45
  Speaker 9: it's an expression that means you're the guy that everyone
• 2:48
  Speaker 9: kind of looks to for the I might be considered
• 2:51
  Speaker 9: a mensh in some circles. There are other words that
• 2:56
  Speaker 9: other people might use to consider me. But that's okay.
• 2:59
  Speaker 9: Four three four eight A two four two one seven.
• 3:02
  Speaker 9: Here are the first things. So yes, that clip was
• 3:06

  Speaker 9: actually Donald Trump calling years ago, back in the nineties,
• 3:15
  Speaker 9: he he stood accused of calling talk radio programs and
• 3:19
  Speaker 9: trying to inflame people. I mean he used to do
• 3:21
  Speaker 9: it the old fashioned way. He just used to make
• 3:23
  Speaker 9: it onto the evening news and he would troll the
• 3:26
  Speaker 9: city council or the mayor of New York or whoever

• 8:32
  Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37

  Speaker 12: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack and it's always a boy. Growing
• 10:01
  Speaker 12: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.

  Speaker 12: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,

• 14:02
  Speaker 19: I have Resident Agent Charge David Clancy.
• 14:07
  Speaker 9: And by the way, the emails with clips of this
• 14:09
  Speaker 9: guy saying it's good to see that Barney Feife was
• 14:12
  Speaker 9: able to find work after he left Andy.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Taylor's Sheriff's office. That's just mean.
• 14:19
  Speaker 9: I mean, yes, he's he actually looks like he's as
• 14:21
  Speaker 9: old as Dott Knots would be if he was still
• 14:24
  Speaker 9: alive today. But that's a Hey, Palm Beach County, that's
• 14:27
  Speaker 9: their sheriff, and that's their constitutional officer officer, that's who
• 14:30
  Speaker 9: they've elected. So e's up. I mean, I get it.
• 14:34
  Speaker 9: A lot of people think I look weird too.
• 14:37
  Speaker 19: At one this morning, the security detail detected that a
• 14:41
  Speaker 19: individual had made his way into the inner perimeter of Barlago.
• 14:48
  Speaker 19: A deputy had two Secret Service agents on the detail
• 14:52
  Speaker 19: went to that area to investigate. They confronted a white
• 14:56
  Speaker 19: male that was carried a gas can and a shotgun.
• 15:01
  Speaker 19: He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment
• 15:05
  Speaker 19: that he had with them, at which time he put
• 15:08
  Speaker 19: down the gas can raised the shotgun to a shooting position.
• 15:14
  Speaker 19: At that point in time, the deputy and the two
• 15:16
  Speaker 19: Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat.
• 15:21
  Speaker 19: He is deceased at the scene. I'll give you a
• 15:25
  Speaker 19: picture of the shotgun and the gas can to have
• 15:28
  Speaker 19: with you.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: Because we need to ban gas cans now too.
• 15:31
  Speaker 19: Investigation continue, so.
• 15:35
  Speaker 9: The sheriff in Palm Beach County, you know, holding on
• 15:40
  Speaker 9: to information now the press has You've gone off and
• 15:43
  Speaker 9: found family members and such from around the area. Apparently
• 15:48
  Speaker 9: his cousin is enjoying his fifteen minutes of fame because
• 15:58
  Speaker 9: he's just going on as Braden Fields is their.
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: Cousin who's quite media friendly.
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: It's almost like when the Chicago guy, this kid from
• 16:14
  Speaker 9: Chicago got named pope and his brother was on every
• 16:17
  Speaker 9: TV network. I'm like, oh boy, the Vatican is not
• 16:20
  Speaker 9: going to like this. He's calmed down a little bit,
• 16:24
  Speaker 9: but he's been on TV a lot more than the
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: family members of any other pontiff, and Braiden Fields has
• 16:30
  Speaker 9: found the TV cameras to his liking.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: He's a good kid.
• 16:34
  Speaker 9: Field stated to local press, I wouldn't believe he would
• 16:38
  Speaker 9: do something like this. It's mind blowing. He said he
• 16:42
  Speaker 9: was afraid of guns and never discussed politics. Despite fields
• 16:48
  Speaker 9: allegations that the family that this kid Martin comes from
• 16:53
  Speaker 9: are all avid Trump supporters, doesn't mean he is. How
• 16:59
  Speaker 9: many kids have rebelled against their family. But Fields goes
• 17:04
  Speaker 9: on to say about this Tucker Austin, Tucker Martin, he
• 17:07
  Speaker 9: wouldn't even hurt an ant. He doesn't even know how
• 17:11
  Speaker 9: to use a gun, which then opens another question for
• 17:15
  Speaker 9: the sheriff. If this kid allegedly wouldn't even know how
• 17:19
  Speaker 9: to use a gun, where does he get a shotgun?
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 17:22
  Speaker 9: According to police reports, right now they're still searching the
• 17:26
  Speaker 9: area for apparently accomplices, and if they're willing to tell
• 17:31
  Speaker 9: the press that they're looking for a getaway vehicle, there
• 17:40
  Speaker 9: might be more going on here than just a kid
• 17:43
  Speaker 9: whose last good marble fell out of his hands. Who
• 17:47
  Speaker 9: is the fellow that rendered the truck for the Oklahoma
• 17:53
  Speaker 9: City bomber. Then remember they caught him in Kansas. Yeah,
• 17:59
  Speaker 9: he was the one that did you know, bought the
• 18:02
  Speaker 9: fertilizer and the GAT diesel gas and the rented the
• 18:05
  Speaker 9: truck for So there may be a bigger thing going
• 18:11
  Speaker 9: on here than just a kid who was upset about
• 18:14
  Speaker 9: the Epstein files, which is the other narrative.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: They're telling you.
• 18:23
  Speaker 9: That he was upset about the Epstein files. Doesn't say
• 18:28
  Speaker 9: in what direction. Because that's the interesting part of this
• 18:30
  Speaker 9: is doing this every day, I know there are almost
• 18:33
  Speaker 9: equal percentages of people upset for them releasing it at
• 18:37
  Speaker 9: all and upset for them not releasing.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Enough of it.
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: So you can't have one way or the other. Investigators
• 18:48
  Speaker 9: believe he picked up the shotgun along the way. Trying
• 18:55
  Speaker 9: to talk back the narrative that they're searching for a
• 18:58
  Speaker 9: vehicle that may have been involved a secondary driver. They
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: say they have a vehicle with a box that the
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: gun was recovered in. Does that mean it was purchase new?
• 19:11
  Speaker 9: Where was it purchase new if he had a box? Still,
• 19:19
  Speaker 9: so there's a lot of holes in this story. But
• 19:23
  Speaker 9: if you take it at its face value, it's somebody
• 19:28
  Speaker 9: who's very upset about President Trump and the Epstein files.
• 19:34
  Speaker 9: But that doesn't tell you enough. That doesn't say is
• 19:37
  Speaker 9: he upset because there were people that were identified, the
• 19:42
  Speaker 9: four or five victims that were named in the disclosed
• 19:47
  Speaker 9: documents that remember, they were standing behind Pam Bondi during
• 19:51
  Speaker 9: last week's show pony trial of the Congressional Oversight Committee.
• 20:01
  Speaker 9: Or was he upset that they released it at all?
• 20:04
  Speaker 9: Or was he upset that Trump was, you know, continually
• 20:08
  Speaker 9: to be alleged to have been a participant in all this,
• 20:13
  Speaker 9: and that all of this is just to cover up,
• 20:15
  Speaker 9: to cover up Trump's involvement in the pedophile ring, because
• 20:23
  Speaker 9: just to say he was upset about the Epstein files
• 20:26
  Speaker 9: leaves too many gaps in the story. But somewhere along
• 20:31
  Speaker 9: the line, someone helped this, you know, or push this kid.
• 20:36
  Speaker 9: And if it was just the media coverage of it
• 20:38
  Speaker 9: pocks on our house. But if this kid wouldn't even
• 20:44
  Speaker 9: know what to do with a gun, why does he
• 20:46
  Speaker 9: all of a sudden think getting a shotgun is a
• 20:48
  Speaker 9: good idea? Who's put that idea in his head? Some
• 20:58
  Speaker 9: twenty one year old kidd who has from what I
• 21:02
  Speaker 9: can tell no political footprint whatsoever. I mean, at least
• 21:11
  Speaker 9: Lee Harvey Oswald had been to Cuba, had been to
• 21:14
  Speaker 9: China and was trying to get into the Communist Party
• 21:17
  Speaker 9: and they wouldn't let him become a spy for them
• 21:19
  Speaker 9: and all.
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: Of this stuff.
• 21:20
  Speaker 9: So, I mean, you have that narrative, but you don't
• 21:22
  Speaker 9: even have this on this kid. So a lot of
• 21:25
  Speaker 9: people saying, you know, how did he get that far
• 21:27
  Speaker 9: into mary Lago? It's a fair cop as well the
• 21:36
  Speaker 9: sheriff you heard him say, it got past the perimeter.
• 21:42
  Speaker 9: But this go back to the original Trump term. Secret
• 21:46
  Speaker 9: Service did not like trying to have the president at
• 21:50
  Speaker 9: Merri Lago all these times because of its quote indefensibility.
• 21:57
  Speaker 9: So that's the latest as we have it on this
• 21:59
  Speaker 9: on first thing today.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Hey, I'm Brandt and her name is Shary I love.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: for because of a surgery.
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: She just went through.
• 22:09
  Speaker 20: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
• 22:11
  Speaker 20: talk about all the time, which.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: Is meta share.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: That is right, Yeah, So what was your experience like
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: with meta share and health care ability?
• 22:18
  Speaker 20: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing. That is when
• 22:21
  Speaker 20: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
• 22:24
  Speaker 20: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
• 22:27
  Speaker 20: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
• 22:30
  Speaker 20: call in with your need that.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Is just yes, refreshing.
• 22:34
  Speaker 20: Yes, that's what it is.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I keep telling people people love meta share and they
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: dollars a month.
• 22:42
  Speaker 20: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
• 22:46
  Speaker 20: and I mean different in a very very good way.
• 22:48

• 28:43
  Speaker 9: The promo was coming out of the radio. Four three
• 28:45
  Speaker 9: four eight eight two four two one seven Text messages
• 28:53
  Speaker 9: as well as phone calls. I get it. This is
• 28:56
  Speaker 9: why text message is five to one at least, if
• 28:59
  Speaker 9: not ten to one, out number of phone calls at
• 29:01
  Speaker 9: that number. And it's because mornings you just don't have
• 29:04
  Speaker 9: that much time. I've always argued with you know, the
• 29:09
  Speaker 9: afternoon guy gets twice as many phone calls.
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: As you, jolways.
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: Well, yeah, because everyone's on their lunch break.
• 29:16
  Speaker 9: You know, I watched one guy he he would do
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: a swap shop and then say he got a hundred
• 29:27
  Speaker 9: phone calls. Yeah, because he had some you know, fender
• 29:29
  Speaker 9: for a nineteen seventy two Pinto for sale and twenty
• 29:35
  Speaker 9: people called about it. That's that's sort of a cheap
• 29:38
  Speaker 9: radio trick to judge by. Oh, I had a lot
• 29:41
  Speaker 9: of phone calls. I mean size doesn't matter in that.
• 29:44
  Speaker 9: But wherever you are, I appreciate it as all. You know,
• 29:47
  Speaker 9: Pacific Northwest or all the way through Virginia where I'm
• 29:51
  Speaker 9: looking at these blizzard pictures, and the Northeast. You know,
• 29:58
  Speaker 9: my family is in New Jersey, in New York and
• 30:01
  Speaker 9: Long Island and they're just getting dumped on. They shut
• 30:04
  Speaker 9: the New York City subways down. Of course, I curmudgeonly say,
• 30:09
  Speaker 9: I remember when they didn't close schools down in the snow.
• 30:14
  Speaker 9: But we also didn't have school buses driving us too orderly.
• 30:20
  Speaker 9: This text message on the North Carolina shooter, I worry.
• 30:27
  Speaker 9: I think he was schizophrenic or had manic depressive disorder.
• 30:31
  Speaker 9: I'm sure this will come out. Media likes to talk
• 30:33
  Speaker 9: about objects rather than the real root, cause, well, you know,
• 30:38
  Speaker 9: it's possible. What makes you think that? And this goes
• 30:43
  Speaker 9: into something I was pointing out earlier. And I'm not
• 30:46
  Speaker 9: blaming the press any more than I'm blaming the shotgun
• 30:49
  Speaker 9: for the kid.
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: And if the kid truly didn't know.
• 30:53
  Speaker 9: Anything about guns, well that would explain why you would
• 30:55
  Speaker 9: point a shotgun at two federal officers, because you're going
• 31:01
  Speaker 9: to get a bad outcome if you pick up your
• 31:04
  Speaker 9: shotgun and hold it, and it has to be and
• 31:07
  Speaker 9: these are supposedly trained folks, So I'm not going to
• 31:10
  Speaker 9: say that they just saw the gun coming up and overreacted.
• 31:14
  Speaker 9: I imagine his hand had to be on the base of it,
• 31:20
  Speaker 9: he had to be holding it in an offensive pose.
• 31:29
  Speaker 9: But what makes you say that going down to marri
• 31:32
  Speaker 9: Lago to shoot Donald Trump or burn him in effigy?
• 31:38
  Speaker 9: The two presumptions of the shotgun and the can of gasoline?
• 31:42
  Speaker 9: Are you shooting and then disposing of the body. There's
• 31:49
  Speaker 9: another question that I don't think anyone's asking. There are
• 31:53
  Speaker 9: lots of people at Mari Lago. It is still a hotel.
• 31:59
  Speaker 9: It's a very expensive one. But there are other people
• 32:03
  Speaker 9: at Mary Lago. What if Trump wasn't the target? I
• 32:12
  Speaker 9: know I have friends of mine who are in law enforcement,
• 32:15
  Speaker 9: and these are the kind of questions you have to ask.
• 32:18
  Speaker 9: What if the President wasn't the target? What if somebody
• 32:23
  Speaker 9: else at the compound was. It's a reasonable thing, but
• 32:29
  Speaker 9: for a twenty one year old who supposedly never handled
• 32:32
  Speaker 9: a gun, had no connection to guns whatsoever, to go
• 32:36
  Speaker 9: buy a shotgun somewhere?
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: Number one.
• 32:38
  Speaker 9: You know, when I was twenty one years old and
• 32:40
  Speaker 9: you said, hey, can you go buy a shotgun? It
• 32:42
  Speaker 9: would have taken me forever to figure out where to
• 32:45
  Speaker 9: go find to buy a shotgun. Now I've driven I
• 32:48
  Speaker 9: ninety five through North Carolina, there are a lot of
• 32:51
  Speaker 9: signs for a lot of places where you can do that.
• 33:00
  Speaker 9: And if somebody sold him a shotgun, according to everyone,
• 33:04
  Speaker 9: he had a clean record. So is this design to
• 33:09
  Speaker 9: make us start to accept the idea of thirty day
• 33:12
  Speaker 9: cooling off periods? Understand the narrative you're going to be
• 33:21
  Speaker 9: struck with over today, and they'll go after the president
• 33:25
  Speaker 9: for it. It's just like they did after the left
• 33:28
  Speaker 9: wing protester agitator was shot in Minneapolis. Mister President said
• 33:35
  Speaker 9: you shouldn't have guns at places like that. Oh and
• 33:38
  Speaker 9: then the National Association of Rifle Owners and the Gun
• 33:43
  Speaker 9: Owners of America everyone flipped their lid because here's the
• 33:47
  Speaker 9: Republican President saying you shouldn't have guns at someplace. It's
• 33:54
  Speaker 9: all designed to tell one percent here, one percent there,
• 33:58
  Speaker 9: because in a race, one percent two percent staying home.
• 34:02
  Speaker 9: Even so, if you get the President saying that, you know,
• 34:07
  Speaker 9: we should have cooling off periods so that a hothead
• 34:11
  Speaker 9: from North Carolina with a burr under his saddle about
• 34:14
  Speaker 9: the Epstein files can't just buy a shotgun and show
• 34:17
  Speaker 9: up at Mary Lago, all of a sudden, the Republican
• 34:21
  Speaker 9: President is giving into the left wing talking points about guns.
• 34:31
  Speaker 9: And I'm just telling you, this is sort of the
• 34:33
  Speaker 9: pregame show for Monday. This is what you're going to
• 34:36
  Speaker 9: hear a lot is discussions about cooling off periods and
• 34:40
  Speaker 9: and things like that.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: Oh, but that's just common sense.
• 34:43
  Speaker 9: You know, if you if you're in a rush to
• 34:45
  Speaker 9: buy a gun, that itself seems like probitable, cause.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: Doesn't it.
• 34:49
  Speaker 9: Joe, I don't know, why don't you tell that to
• 34:53
  Speaker 9: some woman who's being threatened by her a strange husband,
• 35:02
  Speaker 9: somebody who's lost faith in law enforcement because they feel
• 35:08
  Speaker 9: imminently in danger. So therefore they don't want to wait
• 35:11
  Speaker 9: the minutes it'll take a police officer to get.
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: To their home.
• 35:14
  Speaker 9: They want to be able to do something about something
• 35:16
  Speaker 9: right now. This I like this email just came in,
• 35:28
  Speaker 9: Carl writes into Jtindmorning Radio at gmail dot com. Hold it,
• 35:34
  Speaker 9: a twenty one year old kid was fixated on the
• 35:37
  Speaker 9: Epstein Files. Geez, so is every forty one, thirty one,
• 35:42
  Speaker 9: sixty one year old in America. Everyone's fixated on the
• 35:46
  Speaker 9: Epstein Files. Just saying the kid is fixated on the
• 35:49
  Speaker 9: Epstein Files means he's living in the United States today.
• 35:53
  Speaker 9: I can't get away from these things. But that's your
• 35:57
  Speaker 9: great point, Carl. This is not a point of differentiation,
• 36:02
  Speaker 9: because you're inundated with stories about the Epstein Files constantly.
• 36:10
  Speaker 9: But I'm just trying to inoculate you from what's going
• 36:13
  Speaker 9: to be coming next, which is cooling off periods, maybe
• 36:21
  Speaker 9: even restrictions on gas cans. That seems very arcane, but
• 36:27
  Speaker 9: they'll use this as an anti gun event. Nobody will
• 36:32
  Speaker 9: ask Hey, so, how does a twenty one year old
• 36:34
  Speaker 9: who never owned a gun all of a sudden decide
• 36:37
  Speaker 9: getting a gun and going to Mari Lago is a
• 36:39
  Speaker 9: good idea. It seems like the Palm Beach Sheriff has
• 36:44
  Speaker 9: dropped late yesterday there was still an investigation into other
• 36:49
  Speaker 9: vehicles and other conspirators. I've checked six different reporters feeds
• 36:54
  Speaker 9: on the story now and Palm Beef Sheriff seems to
• 36:58
  Speaker 9: have dropped that narrow that there was someone else involved.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: And that may just mean that they.
• 37:11
  Speaker 9: Don't want to tell you they're looking at it because
• 37:13
  Speaker 9: they don't want to put this guy in the wind.
• 37:15
  Speaker 9: Even more, this person, whoever it might have been, that
• 37:17
  Speaker 9: gave him a lift down to North Carolina from one
• 37:20
  Speaker 9: story I saw yesterday, didn't own a car, so they
• 37:23
  Speaker 9: don't know how he got there. But then there was
• 37:25
  Speaker 9: apparently a car there with a box from the shotgun
• 37:29
  Speaker 9: left at the scene.
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: Was he driving?
• 37:35
  Speaker 9: Just that there was a car near the scene with
• 37:38
  Speaker 9: a box from the shotgun doesn't mean somebody didn't say, here, kid,
• 37:42
  Speaker 9: here's the shotgun. I want you to climb up on
• 37:44
  Speaker 9: there and you'll be famous because yeah, go on the internet.
• 37:50
  Speaker 9: There are people who are trying to manipulate people into
• 37:53
  Speaker 9: doing stuff all the time. Most of it isn't you know,

  Speaker 3: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Chunk
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 44:24
  Speaker 9: Oh, some good stuff. Something about gas cans. This would
• 44:29
  Speaker 9: the gas can were to distract people from what he
• 44:34
  Speaker 9: was doing with the shotgun on the film, but.
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: I want to address an email.
• 44:42
  Speaker 9: I got earlier in the program that calls.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: And stuff got in the way of it.
• 44:49
  Speaker 8: But I think it's a great cop especially.
• 44:53
  Speaker 9: It deals with somebody who's obviously a regular listener. Because
• 44:58
  Speaker 9: Rich writes in to JT in the Morning Radio at
• 45:02
  Speaker 9: gmail dot com, mister Thomas.
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: Sorry, that's my dad. That's the oldest joke in the book.
• 45:10
  Speaker 9: Anyways, he writes, mister Thomas, I've heard you say several
• 45:14
  Speaker 9: times with great points that making a holiday out of
• 45:19
  Speaker 9: something is dangerous and a quick way to lead us
• 45:23
  Speaker 9: to forget what it's for. Can you explain why this
• 45:27
  Speaker 9: Lake and Riley holiday is going to be any different?
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: Well, first off, it's not.
• 45:32
  Speaker 9: It's the day is chosen because it was the day
• 45:36
  Speaker 9: Lake and Riley was killed by a non citizen while
• 45:40
  Speaker 9: out for a run. The day is called Angel Family's
• 45:45
  Speaker 9: Day for all the families to commemorate all the families
• 45:48
  Speaker 9: who lost loved ones and just a nuance. Rich what
• 45:52
  Speaker 9: actually I've said in the past, But I appreciate you
• 45:55
  Speaker 9: and and I'm not saying that you're somehow failing in this.
• 46:01
  Speaker 9: It's just the nature of the cat in. You're out
• 46:04
  Speaker 9: it's morning Radio. What I've said in the past and
• 46:08
  Speaker 9: I will say again in the future, is the quickest
• 46:11
  Speaker 9: way to dememorialize someone is to give them a three
• 46:16
  Speaker 9: day weekend. It's the three day when it's not having
• 46:20
  Speaker 9: a holiday for somebody. Abraham Lincoln's birthday should still be
• 46:24
  Speaker 9: a holiday. George Washington's birthday should still be a holiday.
• 46:28
  Speaker 9: We started to pervert them when we made them three
• 46:31
  Speaker 9: day weekends near their holidays, because obviously Abraham Lincoln's birthday
• 46:39
  Speaker 9: falls on a different day of the week every year.
• 46:42
  Speaker 9: But I think it was the late seventies, I guess
• 46:45
  Speaker 9: maybe early eighties when we decided that it would be
• 46:48
  Speaker 9: the Monday of the week that their birthday fell on.
• 46:53
  Speaker 9: So then you wound up with two three day weekends
• 46:57
  Speaker 9: in close succession with one another to maybe three weeks
• 47:00
  Speaker 9: separated from one another. And that's when people started saying, Ah,
• 47:05
  Speaker 9: that's just that's unproductive, Joe, we need so then it
• 47:08
  Speaker 9: became President's Day, and that's one of the great examples
• 47:12
  Speaker 9: of this. I remember one day back when newspapers were
• 47:19
  Speaker 9: the thing, and you would get advertising circulars one Sunday
• 47:23
  Speaker 9: right before I think it was the second maybe the
• 47:26
  Speaker 9: third annual Martin Luther King three day weekend, and the
• 47:30
  Speaker 9: newspaper Flyer had had a big announcement for a white sale,
• 47:35
  Speaker 9: and I remember going on the air and saying something
• 47:37
  Speaker 9: untoward about you know this, this being a sign that
• 47:41
  Speaker 9: reparations have gone amok. But you want to forget somebody,
• 47:47
  Speaker 9: and you want to forget what they've done. Make them
• 47:50
  Speaker 9: a three day weekend. It just becomes an excuse to
• 47:56
  Speaker 9: have a furniture sale or a car you know, oh
• 47:59
  Speaker 9: it's it's Hyundai Thon or whatever it might be. It's
• 48:08
  Speaker 9: a you know, it's it cheapens it. It distracts from
• 48:12
  Speaker 9: and I know, arden supporters of whatever holiday winds up
• 48:16
  Speaker 9: getting a three day weekend. It distracts from the actual
• 48:21
  Speaker 9: meaning of the holiday. Do you think July fourth would
• 48:26
  Speaker 9: mean the same if it was just Independence Day weekend
• 48:30
  Speaker 9: and we made it a three day weekend either just
• 48:33
  Speaker 9: before or just after the fourth of July and we
• 48:36
  Speaker 9: didn't actually celebrate Independence.
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: Day on that day. What if Christmas became the.
• 48:44
  Speaker 9: Fourth the fourth Monday of December every year, or if
• 48:48
  Speaker 9: Thanksgiving became the third third weekend of November. Do you
• 48:57
  Speaker 9: think it cheapens Why we have the holiday so rich.
• 49:01
  Speaker 9: What you're catching is my it's not that Angel Angel
• 49:09
  Speaker 9: Parents' Day, recognition of all these folks who had lost
• 49:12
  Speaker 9: loved ones to death that didn't need to happen because
• 49:17
  Speaker 9: of unchecked.
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: Residents.
• 49:21
  Speaker 9: If you will take, you know, to take Jake the
• 49:23
  Speaker 9: mayor of Minneapolis's FRA zone, the.
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: People who are living in our community.
• 49:31
  Speaker 9: So that's what to watch out for, is if Angel
• 49:36
  Speaker 9: Family's Day is all of a sudden turned into a
• 49:39
  Speaker 9: three day weekend, it's Johnny bar the door another point
• 49:49
  Speaker 9: on Angel Family's Day. And I feel like the teacher
• 49:54
  Speaker 9: in Savannah, Georgia should be on this list for it
• 49:57
  Speaker 9: as well. But the narrative is that these illegals didn't
• 50:03
  Speaker 9: kill anyone. It was the police chasing them. It was
• 50:07
  Speaker 9: that kind of thing. But a subtext to it is
• 50:11
  Speaker 9: this ugly racist narrative, this nineteenth century narrative of we
• 50:18
  Speaker 9: need a we need a class of people that will
• 50:21
  Speaker 9: do our servant bidding that people in our society.
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: Can't won't do anymore.
• 50:30
  Speaker 9: And value and I brought up potato farmers and what's
• 50:33
  Speaker 9: the value of a potato picker? And Jerry writes in
• 50:36
  Speaker 9: a great text on this Jerry, and really well put economically,
• 50:41
  Speaker 9: and we were talking about the value of somebody in
• 50:44
  Speaker 9: your workforce and if and this goes into why economics
• 50:48
  Speaker 9: and a free market is really weird and it's not
• 50:53
  Speaker 9: easy to just write a position paper on it. Jerry
• 50:57
  Speaker 9: reminds me because I had made the point that if
• 50:59
  Speaker 9: you're a potato farmer and your job is to sell potatoes,
• 51:03
  Speaker 9: perhaps the person picking the potatoes is the most important
• 51:07
  Speaker 9: person to that process and should be compensated fairly. And
• 51:11
  Speaker 9: I did say fairly, Jerry. I didn't say he should
• 51:14
  Speaker 9: be given the most money. I just said you should
• 51:18
  Speaker 9: appreciate the fact that if you don't have somebody picking
• 51:21
  Speaker 9: your potatoes, you can't sell any potatoes unless you were
• 51:24
  Speaker 9: going to pick them yourself, which people do as well.
• 51:30
  Speaker 9: Jerry reminds me, though, in his email, that there's another
• 51:36
  Speaker 9: factor in a free market workforce, and that's replaceability. He said, Joe,
• 51:43
  Speaker 9: how easy is it to replace the potato picker in
• 51:47
  Speaker 9: your analogy. It doesn't take a lot of high tech
• 51:52
  Speaker 9: skills or training to be a potato picker. So if
• 51:56
  Speaker 9: you're able to just get out there and physically do
• 51:59
  Speaker 9: the labor, it's relatively easy to replace you. Therefore the
• 52:03
  Speaker 9: wages come down. And right, that's another factor. Yes, it
• 52:08
  Speaker 9: is the most important thing in a potato farm to
• 52:10
  Speaker 9: pick the potatoes, but it's also the job that's most
• 52:13
  Speaker 9: easily replaced unless you don't have a lot of people
• 52:18
  Speaker 9: showing up to do it, because then it becomes harder.
• 52:23
  Speaker 9: And I go back to when I ran restaurants in
• 52:27
  Speaker 9: the late seventies, very early eighties, pre Reagan, I might
• 52:31
  Speaker 9: have one or two applications on my clipboard of people
• 52:34
  Speaker 9: who had come to the restaurant and said, hey, when
• 52:35
  Speaker 9: you're looking for work, consider me. By the time nineteen
• 52:38
  Speaker 9: eighty four came around, I must have had one hundred
• 52:41
  Speaker 9: applications sitting on there.
• 52:44
  Speaker 4: Anyway, time for us to go until tomorrow morning.
• 52:46
  Speaker 9: I am Joe Thomas, so long and thanks for all
• 52:49
  Speaker 9: the fish.
• 52:51

• 52:55
  Speaker 25: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
• 52:57
  Speaker 9: It was metiche that came through for us.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: There was no hassles, there was no problem.
