• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Always an interesting way to start the program off with
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Rich the pharmacist. But you know, when he said, well,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: it's not that big a deal. 450 a gallon is
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a big deal. And I hope the price comes down.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Isn't it odd how things can change when you go
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: from Yeah, where you're starting to say, now you're looking
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: for $ 3. 90 a gallon, because you see it at $ 4.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: 50 a gallon. It's crazy. You're on the air.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Hey, Ron, when I called the show, when Trump first
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: got elected president.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out, folks, those of you that
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: seem to just hate Fort Lauderdale Frank. I mean, I
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: don't understand your hatred of Fort Lauderdale Frank because, you know,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: he's just calling it as he sees it. And I
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: just don't understand some of you folks. I listen and
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I pay attention to what he has to say. Frank
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: is no dummy, and I say that with you on
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the line. So go ahead with what you were saying.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when Trump was first elected president, I said that
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: China makes a hybrid electric vehicle that only costs $ 13, 700
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: in U.S. dollars. And I was excoriated by the Trump supporters.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: One guy said I was weird.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: You're weird, Frank.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: You're weird.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: And another person said if I love China so much,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I should move there.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: And you were just, I do remember that. I remember that.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: And you were just pointing out what they had available,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: what was going on.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: And they also have an economical car that only costs $ 7, 800,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: and it can drive on water. If you want to
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: go to Toronto, you have to go where? Michigan, Detroit,
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: cross over to Windsor, and drive all the way east.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: You know, the guru of Gerard just sent me– he
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: ordered an e-trike 55 miles on a charge. The guru
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: of Gerard's, the professor out in Gerard, Miguel, sent me
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a picture. He ordered this e-trike. I've got to talk
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to him about this. He's officially like an old fart.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: If he's riding this e-trike around, he's going to look like–
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: like he's 102 years old. Mike, you better call me.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I need to have an intervention with you on that
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But maybe is this his answer to
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: get in Girard to go down to the hot dog
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: shop or something like that to save gas?
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Well, I also wanted to defend you. Ted, the neocon
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: says that you, as far as the Iran war, you
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: want to wave the white flag and surrender because you
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: support ending the war. Well, that's because Ted has never
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: served in the military and has no idea what he's
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: talking about. Surrendering is when you're in battle and surrender
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: to the enemy by raising your hands and allowing them
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: to disarm you and take you prisoner, such as when
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: you run out of ammunition or are surrounded and isolated
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: from friendly rescue or support. You know, Ron, Trump can
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: declare victory, bring the troops home, And they get to
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: keep their arms and weapons, and no one will be
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: taken prisoner by Iranians.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I don't think– I would say to you, I don't
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: think that you're going to see any boots on the ground,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: as they like to say, because look how far Iran
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: has thrown us.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: It's surrounded by mountains.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is a big country with 93 million people,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and it's got mountains like on three sides of it.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: This would not be an easy mission if you brought
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: in boots on the ground, as they like to say.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: It would– This is a difficult test. Now, do I
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: sit here and say, is Iran taking a beating? Absolutely,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: economically in every way. But I will also sit here
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and say, are we taking a beating? Yes, we are, too,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: with inflation and the economy and potentially the midterms. Now,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: do you think– I said again, do you think the
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: people in Iran– think like you or want to live
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: like you or want to be like you. It's a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: different world. It's a different culture. It's a different background.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: In most cases, they hate you and they hate what
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you stand for. So you, you view them from your
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: standpoint and that's not how they think. So I sit
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: back and say, I don't know. I don't know where
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: this thing is at and stand by. It's a Fort Lauderdale, Frank.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I like the guy and I'll be back right after this.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: So stay tuned. News Radio 570 WKVN. State agents are
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: investigating a fatal officer-involved shooting in Finley.
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: The incident happened yesterday afternoon at a roadway inn on
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: Broad Avenue. Authorities say 37-year-old Holden Smith was waving a
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: gun around in the hotel's parking lot and was shot
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: by police when he raised the weapon. Columbus police are
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: looking for a pair of unidentified suspects following a Westside
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: shooting yesterday evening. It happened on West Broad Street at
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: around 5.30 p.m. The victim was found with a gunshot
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: wound and taken to the hospital. He's expected to survive.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose says more poll workers
• 6:27

  Speaker 2: Ron Verb.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: On NewsRadio 570 WKBN.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Back to it.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: NewsRadio 570 WKBN. 3.34 here in the afternoon. All right, Frank,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: go ahead with what you were saying.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Well, when I analyzed uranium stocks. China has 64 reactors running,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: 37 under construction, almost half of every reactor under construction
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: in the world, and 186 reactors planned or proposed. And
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: China has a target of 110 gigawatts by 2030, almost
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: double what they have now. Therefore, when China buys uranium,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: China pays well. They pay early, and they negotiate long-term
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: contracts to secure future supply. Now, I'm thinking, instead of
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: going to war against Iran on Israel's behalf, why not
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: trade with them? You know, a lot of uranium is
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: not being sold to the good old United States anymore.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: A lot of uranium comes from Central Asia, and they
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: border China. And they are negotiating deals to sell uranium
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: to China. So wouldn't it be better to make peace
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: with everybody and not go to war on behalf of
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: Israel and go back to trading like the Founding Fathers envisioned?
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Don't go chasing dragons overseas.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: But no.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: You know, uranium is a very important commodity, and it's
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: very illiquid. Just a little bit of buying can drive
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: the price way up. And also, I wanted to mention
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: the cost of capital, because it's very important to our economy.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: And I'll explain in a minute. But supply-side economics... corrected
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: the outdated theory of the cost of capital. And that
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: theory attributes the cost of capital to the interest rate.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: The higher the interest rate, the higher the cost of capital. Now,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: government budget deficits drive up interest rates and crowd out
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: private investment, while high rates of savings and investment lowered
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: the interest rate and lowered the cost of capital. I've
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: always said China's a nation of of savers and investors,
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: and we're a consumer economy. We're a nation of debtors
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: and spenders. But, you know, Ron, also taxation, including the
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: tariff tax, the tariff tax and inflation tax has an
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: even larger effect in driving up the cost. of capital
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: more than the Fed raising interest rates. And Ron, the
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: cost of capital is highly inelastic in regards to interest rates,
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: but because income taxes and all taxes have a higher
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: much greater impact on raising the cost of capital. Warren
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: Buffett said it doesn't matter if the Democrats or the
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Republicans take over the House and Senate and the executive.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: He believes that taxes are going way up. And I
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: tell you what, you want to ruin the economy? You
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: don't want money for future investment so people have more jobs?
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: What's Generation Z going to do They're screwed, Ron. They're
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: living at home. Where are the jobs for them going
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: to be? I've always said they're paying into Social Security,
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: they're paying into Medicare, and they're not going to see
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: a penny out of either one of those when they
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: get older.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I hope you're wrong. Thank you, Frank. Appreciate it. All right,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: you're on the air. Hello. Whoops, wait a second here.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: I've got to do this. You're on the air. Yeah,
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Ted the Conservative.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: What are you doing, buddy?
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I'm causing hate and discontent here on NewsRadio 570.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: That's what I was going to say. You're causing hate
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: and discontent.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: You know, I had to call you. I missed the
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: program yesterday, so I was listening to the podcast. And
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: that podcast is just great because when someone like the
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: anti-Semite comes on, you just fast forward. You get tired
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: of hearing.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: About all this.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I don't want to engage in specific name-calling like that
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: against callers.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Well, you didn't say that.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: All right, so.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: When he called me a neocon.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Okay, so.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: Well, but anyways, why I called you. Rules for one,
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: rules for all. So you decide.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: I'm the rule enforcer.
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: J.J.? The Trumpster, formerly known as J.J. the Liberal.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: I'm calling to say that, you know, I was really
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: glad I called that day and said the things I
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: did that kicked him off and forced him to the doctor.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: He's had electric shock, just like one flew over the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: cuckoo's nest. He's had some electric shock, and all of
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: a sudden he is now J.J.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: The Trumpster. Yeah.
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: I think we have to knock off the formerly known
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: act because that doesn't even exist anymore. I think we succeeded.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: That's the only.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: Reason I called because every time he calls, I laugh.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I know. He's getting better and better.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, he is. He is getting better and better. You laugh.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: I laugh too.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, he plays his part so well as J.J.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: The Trumpster.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not wrong, am I? I mean, it's entertainment
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: to the next level. I think we did good in
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: transforming him. You know? I'm just blown away. Now, if
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: we could only do that Fifth Avenue and Emanuel, if
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: we can get J.J. to share the doctor's contact information...
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: We might be on our way here. What do you think?
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: We shall see.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Maybe.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, we shall see. All right, what else is
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: on your mind besides that?
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: Well, I really don't have much to say except the
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: gas was $ 4. 75 down in Columbiana.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: No, you mean $ 3. 75, not $ 4.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: 75. It's $ 4. 50 up here.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: I sent you a picture. Let me see. I could
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: be losing my mind because that's very possible. I snapped
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: it when..
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: It can't be 370. I'm sorry, 449. Oh, okay. Well,
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: that's what it is up here.
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: 449. And I swear to God, yesterday when I rode by,
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: it was only like 399. No, no, it was really
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: low down here.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: It was like 359, 359.
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: It's weird because sometimes down here in the country land,
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: it's a lot cheaper, and then I travel up and
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: I go down 224, I'm out in Austin, found the sheep.
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: There's a big disparity in the prices between down here
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: and up there, which is crazy. If it's high up there,
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: it's low down here and vice versa. However, if you
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: want a good deal, go to Love's out on Market
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: Street because they are always, like they were $ 379 yesterday,
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: I think. And I'm sure that today they're probably only
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: around $ 4. They say hello to pulling cars. They want
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: you to buy all that other crap they sell. But, hey,
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: Iran war. I'm going to sum it up like this.
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: Trump's doing about as well as a one-legged man in
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: a kicking contest. How's that sound?
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I'm still dwelling on the $ 4. 50 a gallon. Yeah, I'm
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: glad I got gas. I filled up.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: Both cars a couple days ago.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: But see, listen to what you're saying. This is how
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: they screw with you. You're saying, boy, I'm sure I'm
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: glad I got it for $ 3. 89 the other day.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I know. And it's like you said, this is
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: on Trump. This isn't on Biden. And, you know, Trump
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: is turning in to be a real... politician out for self-promotion, self-enrichment,
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: and what's the other word I want to use? He's
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: using the Justice Department to settle some of his legal battles,
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: which I knew he would, but I'll be honest. I'm
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: disappointed in him. I still support him. He doesn't work
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: with Congress. Therefore, none of his executive orders will be codified.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: He does practice in government like a dictator. He just
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: thinks everyone should bow and bend the knee and kiss
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: the ring. And we just don't do that in America.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: And it's unfortunate, but even though I'm disappointed in him,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: I know things are much better opposed to a Democrat
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: being in there. And I often tell you that Democrats
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: are horrible at governing. I think we've had this conversation before.
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: They win elections, they get in office, and they just
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: sit on their hands. I've been saying this for years
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: and years and years. And I've come to accept the
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: fact that the only good thing that happens when a
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: Republican gets in office is that we slow down the
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: leftist agenda because they will not push. With the weak
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: leadership we have, they don't push forward anything at all.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: So it's almost like you get nothing accomplished, but you
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: do get to pump the brakes on the Kamala Harris's
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: and AOC's and those kind of people. What do you
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: think about that?
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: What do I think about it?
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: You want to know what I think?
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: I think things are a mess. That's what I think.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, maybe the world's just coming
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: to an end, Ron.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: What do you think? No, it can't end yet. No,
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: it can't.
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: I'm starting to think that maybe this is the end
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: of time. Maybe when I leave for Europe next month,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: I won't come back.
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: No.
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: Maybe if I stay over there, I'll survive a little
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: bit longer than you guys over here.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Listen, I sit back and just say it is a mess.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: I am not going to kid you when I tell
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: you that I'm hoping that– you know how sometimes you
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: see the sign and the gas prices spike and then
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: the next day they're down or later that night they're down?
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping that that's the case. I'm hoping that that's
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: the case when I look and I see it at 450. However–
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: These oil expert guys that I read, there's four main ones.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: There's four main ones that are there.
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: You're like a Ron DeSantis. You do a lot of reading.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: I do a lot of reading. And I've learned more
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: about oil.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: That's because your wife won't talk to you.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: She talks to me.
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: I have that problem at home, too. My wife just
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: doesn't want to talk, so I read.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: So I'm reading all this stuff, and there's four main ones.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: And these are the guys that are saying that the
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: crap would be hitting the fan in August because we've
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: depleted our reserves, basically.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: We're tapped out, and.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: The strait still isn't open, and there's a big issue
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: as far as the supply of oil.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Basically, what they have said is you can't take..
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: 20 to 30 million barrels a day off the market
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: and not think you're not going to have a major problem.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: And it continues to be off the market. Now, what's
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: the solution to this? Well, I've heard it before. We
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: brought them to their knees. We're going to get an agreement.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: We're going to get an agreement. I've heard of that
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: time and time again. I'm full of shit.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: Am I allowed to say that?
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: No, you can't. Wait a minute.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: The great news is..
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: I'm going to go to that doctor, JJ, and see
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: if he can turn me into.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: Ted the Liberal. This might be amazing, folks.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Ted the Conservative might be becoming Ted the Liberal, and
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: JJ the Liberal might be becoming JJ the Trumpster.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know what world I'm living in anymore.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: That would never happen.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: But here's the great news. Here's the great news.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: If you listen to the program on the iHeartRadio app,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: you actually hear what Ted said. If you listen on
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: the radio, I have to edit.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: That, obviously. But it was funny.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: But, I mean, you hear all this nonsense, and it's
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: like we have the 60-day thing, and then that didn't
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: work out. Now we're back to another 60-day thing, and
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I keep hearing they're on the ropes.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Listen, I hope he's right.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I hope we reach an agreement, and it's a done deal.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: But I don't know when that's going to be. This
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: keeps dragging on.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: You know that from day one I supported him in
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: this mission, but he is losing my support every day
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: because he is what I just said he is, and
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: I think he's just living in an alternative environment. universe.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: You don't go to war. You don't start a war.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: You tell me if I'm wrong. Has there ever been
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: a war in the history of our great country where
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: you start a war, you attack another country, and you
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: take a few days off? And you try to convince
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: the world it's going well. Well, maybe we should drop
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: some more bombs. And then you bomb him again. Then
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: you take another week or two off.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: What is his malfunction?
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: This is a difficult situation that I thought we would
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: have learned from Vietnam, but maybe we haven't.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: Ron, we're beyond a quagmire.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: We're beyond the four-day excursion. Then he said four weeks.
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: I mean— I'm going to be honest. The guy is
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: fooling you know what. But I support him because the
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: alternative is worse. I, Captain, I'm in total agreement with that.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's why I said the end of the
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: world is coming. When I leave for Europe, I'm not
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: coming back. This might be my last call to Ron Berkshire.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Well, here's, I just got a, Bob sent me an
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: email listing on the app. He says, not sure how,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: but Bob happens to be listing in Orlando, not over
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: there with Fort Lauderdale. Frank and Bob, you know, Can't
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: beat Orlando. That's Verb Manor 2.
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: He's in the sunshine. Him and Frank should get together.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: They could share a war story.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, my daughter.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: It's Verb Manor 2 down there in Orlando. Not sure how,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: but still 390 all over Orlando.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: So there you go. If you want to get cheap gas,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: you've got to drive to Florida. But maybe tomorrow it'll
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: come back down to four bucks. You know what?
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: But maybe it'll go up to five because these oil
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: guys are telling me the price is going to continue
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: to go up because we're running out of oil.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: That's what they keep saying.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: I got an idea. I saw an Amish guy this morning.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, you're going to do that?
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: Maybe I should hit him over the head and take
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: the buggy.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Maybe you should just have him build you one and
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: then start..
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I could park the horses out front. I could
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: beat them, give them water, no gas. You know, they'll
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: leave a mess in the streets, but I don't have
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: to clean that up.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Folks, what has happened to Ted the Conservative? He wants
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: to no longer be Ted the Englishman.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: He wants to be Ted the Amish guy. All right, Ted.
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: Hey.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: I'll call you back tomorrow if you want.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: But I wanted to..
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I'll call you back tomorrow. No, no, no. What did
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: you want? I don't want to hang up on you.
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: Well... You know, I'm just surprised at the reach of
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: your program, how many people. I mean, I'm truly, I
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: keep saying this to you over and over. One day
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: you have to disclose the viewership number. Because last week
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: I made an announcement about a gathering at the Republican
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: headquarters for Christine Oliver. And, you know, there are people
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: there that said, that wanted to meet me. They said
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: they heard me announce it on the Ron Verb Show,
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: and they came from as far as Austin, town of Borden.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Isn't that something?
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so tomorrow night, Wednesday, August 12th from 6 to 8,
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: there's going to be another get-together to strategize for the campaign.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: Isn't that what Bush called a strategery? We're going to
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: do some strategery at the new Springfield Fire Station in
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: New Middletown from 6 to 8 with Christine Oliver tomorrow.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Well, you ask in here. Listen, I just say this
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: to you, and I..
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: You have a big neck.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: My boss sent me an email just last week. Ron, really,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: really good listenership. You are number 112 plus. So there
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: you go.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: That's a lot of listeners. But I appreciate that because...
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: It means a lot to me.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: I'm telling you, people showed up there at that event
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: for Christine Oliver, and they literally said, where's Ted? We
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: want to meet Ted the conservative. We heard him talking
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: about this event.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: On the run.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: But I told you, though, I told you the two
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: most asked about callers that I'm asked about, you would
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: be number three.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: But number one is G2.
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: My guess would be G2, yeah.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: And number two.
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: It's got to be J.J.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: It's the two most people that ask me most about G2.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: And then it's J.J. the liberal. And then, of course,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Ted the conservative.
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: Why would they want to know about Ted the conservative?
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: That's interesting. I find that rather interesting, intriguing.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Yes. So when we go.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: Home, maybe we should call G2 and get some information.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: Get some blueprints and start building our bunker because the
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: world might be coming to an end. We might all
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: need bunkers in our homes.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: What do you think, huh?
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: You can't afford the lumber.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: I love Fifth Avenue. Thanks, buddy. I'll be back. Okay,
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: onward we go, 3.55 in the afternoon, and you're on
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: the air.
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: I can't believe that I'm not number one or number two.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: I'm shocked.
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I don't recognize the... Diamond Dave. I don't
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: recognize that name at all.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you do. For 25 years, Diamond Dave.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: No, there's no Diamond Dave that calls this program. There
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: is a guy.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: You sound like a guy, Bubba Ganoush. You sound like
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: a Bubba Ganoush guy that I know. Incidentally, speaking of which,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: I did receive an email about you. And the caller
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: and the emailer, I thought, made an excellent point when
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: you were talking about Sophie Cunningham yesterday.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: And you said that... She was that you were five
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: foot 10 and Sophie Cunningham, according to the public news
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: world is five foot 12. And I said, you know
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: what I'm talking about?
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Listen, I'm, I'm reiterating your phone call because it is
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: pertinent to what the emailers said about you.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: So you said you like Sophie Cunningham, you're five foot
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: 10 and you said, and she's five foot 12.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: And I said, no, that's six foot.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: And then I looked it up and I said, oh, no, she's.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Six foot one.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: So the person emailed me and said it would be
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: easier for Baba Ganoush to understand that he's five foot
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: ten and you should let him know that Sophie Cunningham
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: is five foot thirteen.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: Yes, that's true.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: That it would be easier for you to understand that
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: if I put it in that context.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I got it. I got it wrong. Now let
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: me talk.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: You seem on edge. You seem like you're really..
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: That's because I want people that are listening to understand
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: what's going on.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: You know, yesterday, I thought I had you right on
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: the edge before you were going to... You know how
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: you do the silent crescendo and then at the end
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: you start getting frustrated with me? I thought I had
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: you right where I needed you, but the commercial started
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: to come on.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: You cut me off, man. I was this close to you..
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Crescendoing out all right guy can i i don't want
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: to i want to talk nicely and calmly because we're talking.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: And by the way just as a.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Side note wkbn i'm not that crazy about sophie cunningham
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: i mean i i don't forget about her i don't
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: say you talk about something else what now.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: I've been listening to your program here just you know
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: and believe me uh believe me uh You know, I
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: like to call in, but then when I hear somebody's call,
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: I get very disturbed, okay? Because of the fact nobody
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: has a clue and understands Trump. So I'm going to
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: explain this to everybody who don't understand him.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Well, I've got to do the news, and then I'll
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: come back to you. Stand by.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Bubba Ganoush is going to try to understand or explain Trump.
